Dez Bryant Signing With Saints

After seeing that pitiful QB play Monday night maybe the slide in Dez’s production was not all directly on Dez’s?

No, it wasn't. Of course he is not the same receiver as when he was young. He is better than what we have as a number 2 and that's just it, we aren't asking him to be a number 1. Him and MT are both big too. Helps in red zone, helps all over the field. I don't think it is just about money. He has half a season to do what he can to get a SB. This could be as close as he will ever sniff. I may be wrong but I think he will help.

Missed “was NOT all” in my earlier statement, since corrected. I agree another big body the defense has to match up with. As far as locker room cancer, head case and sideline rants should any of those issues appear they will be dealt with post haste in my humble opinion. Being cut and sitting out part of the season might have been a very valuable learning experience Dez’s in addition to signing with a team that plays for each other lead by a GOAT QB and Head Coach who has a history of not tolerating any for before mentioned personal issue.

Nope didn't miss it, I was agreeing with you and elaborating with my opinion on him.

Dak was flash in a pan sorry held my thoughts on him last year he’s not a franchise first of all they use him in wrong offense he would be more of a scam newton type a threat runner than passer turruble. Accuracy I like the guy he try’s maybe great back up

He was helped by a phenomenal line and good run game

I thought he was older than 30. Lost some speed but he won't be in that role. Thinking he gets 12-15 snaps a game, heavily involved in downfield blocking which hasn't materialized like last year. And plenty of time to learn the playbook for the playoffs. It's a good move. Carr and Meredith are not cutting it.

He’s only 3 months older than Julio.

From an article I read

Bryant turned 30 just days ago on Nov. 4, and played in 116 games (including the playoffs) for Dallas. He scored 75 touchdowns in those appearances, averaging 66.2 yards per game and 14.1 yards per catch. That’s pretty good.

Get excited Saints fans. We got quite possibly the best #2/3 WR in the league.

Winning cures a lot of ailments...if he is willing to block down field on running plays and buy into what we are doing then we will be ok. He will provide another 3rd down chain mover and a nice red zone target.

The most important thing is that since it’s a mid season signing we can most likely just release him with little ramifications if he becomes a malcontent in the locker room.
