People still dream of the Dez pre injury.
Pre contract. I don't think getting hurt doomed him. Getting paid ruined him.
People still dream of the Dez pre injury.
It's a well established fact that Dez could not play the slot position which is why Beas happened. OP, please do try to do better.
Dez will be with NOLA
but I hear nothing about Dez talking to anybody.
If Witten can return..
if D. Ware can float rumors of returning for one more season to Dallas..
Dez would immediately elevate the offense plus backup both wide receiver positions.
At this point you give him a base deal with incentives and see what happens.
I am mystified with us in this situation.
Linehan is gone and that was a problem for Dez.
Can anybody throw some light on this?
Just to remind everybody..
watch this..
Just kidding.
I seem to remember him playing there a few times and he caught them.Logic says Dez would be ineffective in the slot
Just because he lined up there a couple times, doesnt mean he should play there. Dez doesnt have to skill set to be a slot WR. Never did.I seem to remember him playing there a few times and he caught them.
First down type throws where he was able to physically get the ball.
Becuz of the money he was being paid and Bez having the position asigned to him..
Dez did not get used there.
He may not prefer the position..but I think he could be effective.
I believe I read since this was posted he is trying to return to the Saints.
Which would seem logical since they paid him last year for nothing.
I want to see him play.
I want to know if we really made the right decision to release him.
I have some doubts.
Injury, Cassel, Weeden, and Dak who is not comfortable to throwing to receivers who are wide open. I don't mind the boarding of ways because he was too much to not mesh with the qb...but Dez loss of athleticism was greatly exaggerated.That was a long time ago. Four years ago since he performed at a high level.
He played prettt well prior to signing his new contract but all he has done is talk a good talk since then.
You believe what pleases you.Just because he lined up there a couple times, doesnt mean he should play there. Dez doesnt have to skill set to be a slot WR. Never did.
Again, to be a slot WR you need to be a precise route runner. Route running has always been Dez's biggest weakness. He just doesnt fit as a slot WR, as much as you would like him toYou believe what pleases you.
If you brought Dez back..
told him he would be used primarily as a slot on 2nd and 3rd and long..
Also used him in triples formations..
4 wide sets with no RB in the backfield..
he could be effective.
Put him in motion..
Dez is a threat to catch the ball and make big plays.
His Achilles is a major issue right now..
I think out of the box which you seem to not want to do.
That's fine.
Let's move on and agree to disagree.
We been there before.
No, that was all talk but he never actually trained with them.He did train with a route guru.
I think learning how to run proper routes was such a shock to his body that it caused the injury.
but I hear nothing about Dez talking to anybody.

I did not.Did you watch the Amazon series All or Nothing that followed the Cowboys?
Watch it and you'll get the answer.
It should still be available.I did not.
Ok.
