Re: Dez Bryant looking like a beast in his workout videos ahead of NFL return
+1.
Would a try out even hurt? Just as a reference on WR production on guys not named Michael Thomas after 5 games : Kirkwood - 0 catches, now on IR Carr - 0 catches ... 3 years in & he knows the playbook ![]() Jordan Humphrey - 0 catches ** he made plays in pre season on 3rd stringers & guys now working at LA Fitness Butler - 0 catches If Dez can prove he's remotely better than any of these guys, sign him. |

Whereas in the past when Brees did it cause our WRs were lacking a bit, I think Teddy does it now because he is horrible/slow at going through his progressions and tends to lock in on targets. Go back and watch some film on Teddy and pay attention to his eyes..... just incredibly slow and indecisive. Teddy is getting by right now cause we have a talented roster that has really stepped it up to compensate for Brees being out . If the roster was weaker and we would be racking up the Ls every week right now. I know we aren't going to change out QBs cause we are undefeated right now with Teddy, but I still think Taysom would have been the better option.

These are Thomas's Targets by week W1 - 13 W2 - 13 W3 - 7 W4 - 9 W5 - 13 Next highest is Ginn W1 - 7 W2 - 0 W3 - 5 W4 - 5 W5 - 2 Next Smith W1 - 2 W2 - 3 W3 - W4 - W5 - 0 Harris W1 - 0 W2 - 1 W3 - 0 W4 - 0 W5 - 0 Humphry W1 - 0 W2 - 1 W3 - 0 W4 - 0 W5 - Everyone else has 0 Targets and you have no chance to catch what isn't thrown to you. Are we to expect that only Ginn/CGM can get open? Drew is known for spreading the ball, TB isnt. Personally, I am going to wait until Drew is back before I pass judgement on WRs that arent having balls thrown at them. |

Re: Dez Bryant looking like a beast in his workout videos ahead of NFL return
I am pretty sure no.
Kirkwood had 21 targets in the last 8 games with Drew. Gin had 30 targets in 5 games Smith had 44 targets Carr - 14 Meridith - 10 Before you guess at 2017 Ginn-70 Coleman - 37 Snead 16 Lewis 15 Teddy is not Drew, they dont play the same, have the same game plan, self confidence, confidence in their their receivers... yet people expect things to be the same. |

Re: Dez Bryant looking like a beast in his workout videos ahead of NFL return
Wouldn't hurt to look, but the videos weren't flattering - his route break s lacked suddenness, crispness...
Achilles tears use to be a death sentence to NFL careers, his situation - age, position, specific injury, likely will require more work... Wish him well in his recovery, maybe by the time he gets a look with the team, his recovery will have progressed and he will have regained more explosiveness... |
