Dez Bryant may soon have a new team, finally.

According to NFL Media, the Saints liked what they saw during Tuesday’s workout, and the two sides currently are negotiating a deal.

And if the deal happens, circle this date on your calendar: November 29. That’s when the Saints play the Cowboys. In Dallas. In prime time.



Once the season began, Bryant’s best play became signing with a team in November, getting up to speed over the balance of the regular season, and attempting to contribute in the postseason, hopeful to make the kind of impression in January that will get him paid in March.

As to Bryant’s reputation for being emotional, the Saints may be one of the few teams equipped to handle him. Between quarterback Drew Brees and coach Sean Payton, they’ll be blunt and candid regarding their expectations, and if it’s not working, the Saints will move on. Like they did a year ago with running back Adrian Peterson.

We needed more help on offense.

Top of the league in dropped passes and drama queen in a young locker room.

Doesn’t play special teams. Doesn’t know the playbook. Doesn’t have chemistry with Drew, halfway through the season.

What depth are we going to get rid of? I hate this move.

Edit: ok, it’s early, I’ll give him a chance. He’s a Saint now, after all.

I’m with you on the first part. We have a LOT of youth at our skill positions and some immaturity. I wish their was a level headed vet out there to help mentor them on how to handle the spotlight. Unfortunately no one out there that’s really an upgrade over what we have. Thomas and Kamara are at a point in their lives where they need some direction. That’s a lot of personality in one locker room. I hope his behavior doesn’t rub off on them before Payton has a chance to give him the boot.
I’m all for second chances so let’s hope he makes the best of it.

We might very well have the best running back and wr tandems in the league. I hope this works out like I think it will

A savvy vet with something to prove. Paired with Brees, Payton and a unified team.

Seems to be working for Eli Apple!!

As long as there is a clause; No "Roseanne Barring" on social media. If he signed that this is going to workout.

Drew will turn him back into a beast in the red zone.

Dez retweeted a post saying he's going to be a Saint. Looks like it's getting done.

Not a fan. Skills have diminished. Always a head case. But, when Brees is looking at Arnold on a big third down, another option isn't all bad. He will make some plays. In the big games ahead, just making teams aware of another option is a win. Overall, it should be a net positive.

Always a head case? Always???
