Juror#8 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) I'm surprised that he's still on the market with so many receiver-needy teams. He has to be persona non grata around the league. Because the guy isn't that old and isn't far removed from some 75 catch, 1000+ yard seasons. Edited May 6, 2018 by Juror#8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam727 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 I'm going to guess this is not legit. It wouldn't make sense for either side. What benefit do the Bills get from using salary cap space to sign Dez to a 1 year contract? Is he the missing piece that'll get the Bills back into the playoffs this year? And what sort of sense does it make for Dez? Are the 2018 Buffalo Bills the best fit for Dez if he wants to go somewhere on a 1 year prove-it deal to cash in next year?

Bad idea for everyone involved! I don't think it's as crazy an idea as you think. Bryant would be an instant upgrade over Zay Jones who would be able to settle in the slot. Having an experienced WR who can still stretch the field with a strong set of hands who is a go to guy in the red zone will make life easier on whatever QB starts. As long as we can sign him to fit him under the cap to a one year deal we have nothing to lose. If he flames out or has a bad attitude that negatively impacts the locker room we can just cut bait. If he has a rebound year we could possibly sign him to a longer contract if he's interested. We'll have the cap space in 2019. Why would it make sense to Bryant who would probably want a premier quarterback to throw him the ball on a one year prove it deal? It doesn't, but he's probably getting desperate and hopefully humbled by having trouble finding a job. He might have to settle for Buffalo (TO style) as a last resort and would be on his best behavior as he'll seek a long term deal. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Allen or Darnold on every mock I read. We invested a fortune into QB, I will acknowledge that it may not start out pretty, there is going to be a period of tribulation but you'd hope that by the end of the year Allen takes that job and doesn't look back.

ALF Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) Bills GM Brandon Beane said the team won't pursue free agent Dez Bryant. Apr 28 - 7:52 PM Beane said the Bills watched Bryant "on tape" but won't pursue the free agent any further. "If we thought that was the right fit for us, we definitely would potentially pursue it," Beane continued. Bryant reportedly turned down a multi-year contract from the Ravens recently and continues to seek out a one-year, prove-it deal. http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/5558/dez-bryant Edited May 6, 2018 by ALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
