Its been a solid four months since the Dallas Cowboys have parted ways with their former star receiver Dez Bryant. He turned down a deal with the Baltimore Ravens that was worth $21 million for 3 years. Since turning down that offer he’s been very picky where he plays neither has any team really been dying to reach out and sign him like he would think.
Two weeks ago during a press conference Cleveland Browns general manager John Dorsey expressed interest in Dez Bryant. The absence of wide receiver Josh Gordon and the uncertainty of his return has brought the idea of bringing Bryant in for a shot. Problem is when the Browns were originally reaching out to Bryant and his club they weren’t returning calls. Many things haven’t went right for Bryant lately from his decline in production since 2014, injuries, being released poorly 2 weeks prior to the NFL draft, and many misconception of what kind of player and teammate Dez Bryant is today. Is it some of Dez’s fault things are going left, maybe. Does Dez need put his pride to the side and understand that he is starting a new chapter of his NFL career, which means possibly taking lesser role, yes. However the way things are looking for Cleveland they could use Dez Bryant and should land a deal.
They traded Corey Coleman to the Buffalo Bills, Josh Gordon is dealing with issues off the field related, and Jarvis Landry is highly productive but not very gifted physically. With new additions and talent already in Cleveland, adding Dez Bryant to the mix can be a plus.
