This whole "Dez will NEVER get it together" "Dez has been a scrub thus far" "Dez is average at best!" Is flat out incorrect
The whole Roddy white discussion brings me to this...
Roddy white first 32 games: 59 rec, 952 yards, 3 Touchdowns.
Roddy was also a 1st round pick.. and came into the league at 24
Dez Bryant first 30 games: 121 rec, 1653 yards, 15 Touchdowns
Dez Bryant is NOW 23 years old with a multitude of issues coming into the league including last years lockout
Here is a quick list of "Top" wideouts whose first 2 years are either equal or worse than Dez's
Greg Jennings
Reggie Wayne
Michael Irvin
Terrell Owens
Steve Smith
Vincent Jackson
Santonio Holmes
Now that is just a quick list I am not gonna go through every top receiver of the past 20 years but you get the point. I am as disappointed as anyone that Dez hasn't put up numbers to match his talent yet but to pretend as if his numbers are "Average" is ridiculous.
Dez Came into the league younger than almost any rookie, and without playing his JR. season.. He followed that year up with a lockout year and for someone who has problems grasping playbooks that is a BIG deal.
In the amount of targets that Dez gets his production is actually off the charts. SOME if not MUCH of the blame for Dez's "Lack of production" is that the cowboys have been unable to involve him early and often. Other teams give their playmakers MANY chances to make plays..
One of Dez's best "Qualities" as a receiver is his ability to meet the ball at its highest point and win jump balls.. We give him no chances to make big plays this way.. That should change.
Once again I am waiting on the production to match the talent but to assume that it will never happen is absurd. He as of now is younger than many rookies from this years draft.
