Not really. Dez is nothing but a RZ threat at this point. Certainly not worth the money they were paying him.
Dez is going to be 30yrs old next year and has averaged just 678yds and 5 TDs over the past 3 seasons. You can't blame injuries either b/c he played ALL 16 games last season and still only had 838yds.
Smart move for the Cowboys imo as Dez isn't a WR1. Dez was a beast for a few years in his career, but I have my doubts he can recapture the player he was at 26yrs old at this point.

Please. They have Allen Hurns and Terrance Williams as their top receivers. This is definitely a big loss.
That said your assessment doesn't shock me. This is a board that thinks Kenny Britt, Chris Hogan, Cordarrelle Patterson and Phillip Dorsett is a good group.
Losing the guy who's been your leading receiver for nearly a decade is definitely a big loss.

I think they go after the local Kid Sutton from SMU.

Depends on if teams think he can recapture the old version of himself. He hasn't been very good for 3 straight seasons and will be 30yrs old this year.
I'd imagine his best chance to make close to the money he was due in Dallas would be on some type of incentive laded deal that requires him to produce.
But if Jarvis Landry can get $15m APY, I'm sure Dez can find a decent paycheck. Cowboys did him somewhat dirty by waiting this long to release him imo.

I feel like the overall ineptitude and/or a lack of passing in general is partly the reason for his decline since 2014. He isn't like he was back then, when he was in the top 5 WR conversation, he's probably fallen out of top 20 by now, but he could have a resurgence in the right offense with the right QB.
I could see him playing in Houston. He's Texas grown. He would be playing with the new most exciting QB in the league--Deshaun Watson. He's never had a receiver close to the capabilities of DeAndre Hopkins to take the attention off him. Even though they went 4-12 last year they should still be competitors given the weak AFC South, and with hope that Watson plays a full season. He could be a 1,000+ yard receiver as a #2 with the Texans if everything goes well.

To be fair, Landry is a much better WR than Bryant at this point in their respective careers.

Not surprising your simple mind groups everyone who doesn't agree with you into the same bucket as if they all must think the same simply b/c they don't agree with you. This may come as a surprise to you but there is often more than two ways to look at any situation.
Dez's production is replaceable for a much lower cost and that is why the Cowboys moved on. I figured you would be on board since you often advocate for paying for current/future performance instead of name recognition based on past performance.
Name a WR in the ENTIRE NFL that has more targets for less yards than Dez over the past 3 seasons.

I'll make this more simple...our RB group > their WR group...
So if we are scared shitless about who.is gonna tote the rock for us, imagine how they feel about who is gonna catch it..

Where did I pump them up? I said one is a decent slot guy and the other is a decent secondary guy.
Damn you try hard to argue and feel superior.
