We are agreed Dez is just an average WR

[Ranching]

It must really piss off the great Cowboys receivers that he has the touchdown record,,,

I wonder how many he would have if he played with Roger or Troy? Hmmm

Who is "we?"

Do you have DID?

 

[Tenkamenin]

Dez Bryant: Below average numbers, exceptional talent.

 

[Parcells4Life]

Dez Bryant: saddled with QB who can’t use his skills

 

[CATCH17]

Dez Bryant: Below average numbers, exceptional talent.

Yep.


I love Dak but he’s not going to feed a WR like Romo could and you mix in our outdated passing scheme and you have one of the biggest wastes of talents in Cowboys history.

The question isn't whether Dez is a good receiver or not. The question is..... is he worth his salary at this point in his career? Big difference.

Even worse than the Crawford contract in terms of value.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Well put sir.

WRs I would put with rbs as a position that can be filled on the 2nd day. This is a running team first. Pay the online and draft defense.

 

[cowboy_ron]

Dez is not an elite WR and not sure he ever was. When he's gone up against megatron, Julio Jones and other top WR's makes it pretty obvious......when the team has really needed him to step up in times of need he very rarely did/does, has often completely disappeared in games at times.

I would say he might be slightly above average due to some great catches he's made, they are just few and far between as well as missing on passes that some on this board could catch.

100% agree, only thing that would make me think different would be a guaranteed Antonio Brown or Julio Jones. Just a monster that can take over games and those guys are rarely known about anyways....they usually get taken later on and become stars. I'd rather take can't miss trench players.

If only life was this simple. One needs to take into account the young inconsistent quarterback (Dak) for the Dallas Cowboys. This is having a negative impact on his wr numbers. Still respective but not elite numbers.

Right on sarge!

Bryant is exactly like his boyfriend Romo. He was good and sometimes he was very good. He was never elite...like his big game record proves. When, finally, Garrett and Bryant are done in Dallas the club will move forward to a playoff run.

The RG is far more important than a WR. Yeah, games are won and lost in the trenches. I still consider RB's as trench players.

He is too lazy to play for either Landry or Johnson. They would have made him a receiver early on or got rid of his lazy backside.

I know he puts on the show as if he has fire in his belly.
But I believe the flame went out a long time ago.
He's no Michael Irvin.

 

[dmq]

Should still be returning punts.

Amen. His " passion" died when he signed his undeserved and bloated contract. Stephen Jones understands that and so does Bryant. Hence, his performance this season. He knows he is done in Dallas after this year.

I don't agree. Its just hard for him to get open and he doesnt have a qb like romo to get him the ball. But dak figured the fade out twice last game. You not see the passiin in dez when he had that run and catch last game? He got up fired up!

After the first catch. That's passion

 

[JohnsKey19]

I'd use both Bryant and Beasley in tandem primarily working the slot, flanked by a true speed threat outside. I think you can get great production from Bryant for another 3+ years if used this way.

He's better than this but not a great deal. I'd say 1/2 way between average and elite. I agree with the rest of your post.

 

[Rockport]

Dez just tries to rely on his natural ability and doesn’t put in the mental work to be truly great. I would not resign him.
