Not once did the circle the drain after any of those moves.

If you compare Dez's output over the last 3 years, to Allen Hurns, they are very comparable. But Dez was being paid way more.

I think Dallas is positioning themselves to go after Calvin Ridley in the first round.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports free agent Dez Bryant is expected to wait until after this week's draft to sign with a team.

There's been little known interest in Bryant since his release from the Cowboys nearly two weeks ago. He's yet to make a visit, and there have been no concrete teams absolutely known to be involved in courting the 29-year-old. He's going to find it real tough to come close to the $12.5 million he was scheduled to earn in 2018 on his Dallas deal. We'll continue to wait.

He posted on IG Video that he is in no rush to sign, and he knows his worth.. Whatever that means

It doesn't seem like Redskins are interested in him, according to Mike Jones.

Edit: I hope this is true, the signing of Dez would stunt Doctson's growth on field

At this point Doctson needs to step up regardless of whoever else the Skins bring in. If his growth gets stunted by Bryant, or any other receiver then he was a bust pure and simple. Doctson was the 22nd overall, and Dez was the 24th, in their respective drafts.

Nether are the Giants and Philly is way over the cap so I doubt Dez will be in the NFC East.

Re: Around the NFL: Free agent signings 2018

If we sign Bryant and not Hankins, I really won't understand the logic. I thought the Skins quietness in FA was an attempt at saving cap for next year, but if not, a 30 years old receiver is not my priority. We still have no LG and no proven NT.

I think we get both of those in the draft at this point. But it doesn't sound like the Skins are going to sign Bryant.

edit: I think there is no way that we don't pick Vea or Payne in the first round

That's what I think too.
I won't be mad if we don't sign anyone else and address our needs through the draft. But if we sign someone (to a significant contract) that is not Hankins or a proven G (or C and slide Roullier to LG), I won't get it.

Dez reaction to his release is exactly why we should not want this overrated idiot in our locker room

Re: Around the NFL: Free agent signings 2018

Passer rating when throwing at Dez Bryant in 2017 was 74.8, and that could have been a LOT worse if Bryant hadn't actively broken up a bunch of INT-bound passes from Dak.

Stats from PFF

If you're willing to move to D.C. and babysit him, then I'd feel better about him coming here. I have female relatives in this area.
