Can Dez Bryant regain his talent in Carolina?

He will most likely be cut by the Cowgirls if he doesn't restructure his deal. Just a few years ago when Romo was his QB he was considered a top 3 WR. Maybe a change of scenery could rejuvenate Dez Bryant?

 

*He's not my first target btw, just wanted to see you guys opinion on him as a target.

I think Dez is living off his past right now.

Saw where Torrey Smith might be let go. Probably cheaper than what someone will pay for Dez but I'm honestly not sure how much he's got left either.

To be fair to Dez his dropoff started when Dak became his QB. It could be a QB issue, or maybe he has lost a step.

I doubt Dez is getting a Big pay day

He'll probably get a 1 or 2 year prove it deal

at a good price what team wouldn't want Bryant

The problem is teams will look at his name and what he accomplished in the past, they will probably be willing to pay a lot more than what we would.

Ehhhh Cole Beasley had his best career year with Dak.... The issue with Dez is he doesn't run past anyone and if a fast cb is on him thats around his size Dez is never open. Hence why Dez production has gone down with Dak, Dak doesn't throw wr's open and he doesn't give Dez opportunities for 50/50 balls.

On the other hand Romo would throw guys open and give Dez those 50/50 opportunities but at the same time Dez attribute was never speed and he's only getting older. Beasley beats his man most of the time so when Dak saw Cole open he would get the ball.

    • Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.  
    • Same I think Randsom is a baller..... hopefully we don't have to suffer through 4-8 games of Scott blowing azz to get him on the feild.
    • Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
