Can Dez Bryant be a good fit in Cleveland?


Dez Bryant was released by the Dallas Cowboys this past April.

Surprisingly, Dez is still without a job. He turned down a three year $21 million deal from the Baltimore Ravens.

Now there is a mutual interest between the Cleveland Browns and Dez Bryant.

Dez Bryant met the Cleveland Browns this past Thursday, but no deal was reached.

After the Browns trading Corey Coleman to the Buffalo Bills, and Josh Gordon still dealing with his personal problems. You would think the Browns needed a wide receiver ASAP, but with the emergence of rookie receiver Antonio Callaway, do they really need Dez Bryant?

Dez isn’t what he use to be, but he still can make big plays for the Browns offense. The real problem is can he fit in with the new culture Browns are creating positive energy and hard work no days off unless your leg is falling off as Jarvis Landry said on Hard Knocks.

Dez fits the hard work no days off description, but the positive energy is another story. We have seen his tirades on the sideline in Dallas when he doesn’t get his way. Does John Dorsey, Hue Jackson, Todd Haley really want to deal with that?

If this deal happens the Browns will have one of the best wide receiver cores in the league.

Maybe Jarvis Landry can keep Dez leveled headed, but only time will tell.

How Will Dallas Cowboys Offense Move on Without Dez Bryant?




For starters star running back, Ezekiel Elliot is back, so that takes a lot of stress off of Dak Prescott and the rest of the offense. When the Cowboys drafted star offensive lineman, Connor Williams, this past April, Dallas has shown they were adding depth to the offensive line for if Tyron Smith goes down again.

Many people have been stating that opposing defenses, will be stacking the box on the Cowboy's offense since they don't have a legitimate deep threat receiver. In all honesty, does it really matter who stacks the box when you have the best offensive line in football and will pancake any defender in their way? On top of having one of the most elusive power backs in the NFL, that can make just about any defender miss tackling him with one move.

The Dallas Cowboys have really done a good job of keeping and add pieces that fit Dak Prescott play style. As we all know Prescott plays a very safe game. At times that good for him and at times it frustrates people that he doesn't take to risks downfield. But in Dak's first two years he has 45 touchdowns and has only thrown 17 interceptions. With numbers like that you really can't argue with his conservative play call.

But now without Dez Bryant, Cowboy's receivers must step up and make plays for Dak Prescott. I think the guy that will be a key component for the success of Dallas Cowboys passing game will be Allen Hurns. Hurns is a big deep threat that the Cowboys desperately need. Hopefully, Prescott and Hurns can get the chemistry they need through training camp and preseason games.

Also, Dak Prescott still has one of his favorite targets in Cole Beasley. After a letdown season, look for Cole Beasley to have a bounce-back season. There have been talks that Beasley is off to a fast start at training camp. Hopefully, he keeps this up and it leads to a big season for Cole Beasley.

Another addition that will help the Cowboys passing offense is Tavon Austin catching out the backfield and in the slot position. Tavon has some scary breakaway speed that fits Prescott style of play perfectly.

Terence Williams is the wildcard in the Cowboys offense. He has shown flashes of promise, but is very inconsistent and goes missing in big moments. But, yet in still he fits well in Prescott's play style which was the main reason they brought him back, but if he has another bad season, I could see him getting released.

We will soon see if the Cowboys offense will sink or swim without Dez Bryant.

What's Next for the Dallas Cowboys?





After cutting Dallas Cowboys All-Time touchdown receptions leader, Dez Bryant, the Cowboys now free up $8.5 million in cap space for the 2018 season.

Now the Dallas Cowboys need to address what is now a weak point for the team. The team needs to find a game changer deep threat wide receiver either in the draft or through free agency.

There are a lot of young talented receivers in the draft that could instantly help the Cowboys with their wide receiver problem. A name that comes to mind is Calvin Ridley from Alabama. Ridley had 63 receptions, 967 receiving yards, and five receiving touchdowns with the run-happy Alabama offense this past season.

Another potential wide receiver candidate in the draft is Maryland star wide receiver, DJ Moore. Moore had 80 receptions, 1033 receiving yards, and 8 receiving touchdowns. He could be the deep threat Dallas desperately needs.

Dallas should also look at star Texas A&M wide receiver Christian Kirk. Kirk had 71 receptions, 919 receiving yards, and 10 receiving touchdowns this past season.

Some key wide receiver free agents that are still available, if they can stay healthy, are Eric Decker and Jeremy Maclin.

Eric Decker had a decent season in his one year deal with the Tennessee Titans. Decker did pretty well to be a third option for the young and talented Titans’ team. Decker finished this past season, with 54 receptions, 563 receiving yards, and one touchdown reception.

Jeremy Maclin, once a star wide receiver before the injuries, can easily return to stardom if he can stay healthy. Maclin played this past season with the Baltimore Ravens, where he had 40 receptions, 440 receiving yards, and three touchdowns.

The Cowboys have several options to replace Dez Bryant. We will soon find out what option they choose.

Dallas Cowboys Add Deep Threat to Wide Receiver Core



Yesterday, Allen Hurns signed a two-year deal worth $12 million with the Dallas Cowboys.

This deal works well for both parties, Allen Hurns get a change a scenery and fresh start he desperately needs, and the Dallas Cowboys acquire the deep threat their offense desperately needs.

With the latest decline of Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant, everyone knew the Cowboys would be looking to bolster a weak wide receiver core. Allen Hurns could be the guy to help strengthen this wide receiver core.

This past year Allen Hurns had 39 receptions, 487 receiving yards, and two touchdowns. However, if he can play like he did in 2015 where he had 64 receptions, 1,031 receiving yards, and ten touchdowns the Cowboys offense could be in for a present surprise.

But, first Dak Prescott and Allen Hurns will need to gain chemistry and trust in order for this to work. Only time will tell if this will work.

2017-18 NFL Season Kicks off Tonight


NFL Football is back! Tonight the NFL Hall of Fame Preseason game will take place. The two teams that will be playing are the Dallas Cowboys vs. the Arizona Cardinals.

Although it's just preseason, everyone has been waiting for football to come back on and we're not talking about soccer.

The Dallas Cowboys are coming off a phenomenal 13-3 record from last season. They look to build on that momentum tonight. We will only get to see the Cowboys prolific offense, of Dak Prescott, Ezekiel Elliot, Dez Bryant, Cole Beasley, and the brick wall offensive line for a series or two. But, that's all we need to see.

What most Cowboys fans and fans, in general, want to see is if Dallas young defense will sink or swim. Cowboys secondary was built through this year's draft, spending a bulk of their draft picks on safeties and corners. Also, we will see if Taco Charlton was the right for Dallas depleted defensive line.

Another young future star will get to see tonight for the Dallas Cowboys, is Ryan Switzer, a former North Carolina standout wide receiver and punt returner. During Switzer's four years at North Carolina, he returned seven punt returns for touchdowns. The Cowboys have starved for a punt returner for the longest. They didn't want to overwork Cole Beasley and Dez Bryant. In my eyes, Ryan Switzer was the steal of the draft.

On the Arizona Cardinals side, the Cardinals are coming off a disappointing season. Last season, the Cardinals finished 7-8-1. But, the only bright spot for the Cardinals, was the emergence of star running back David Johnson. He does it all! As Carson Palmer gets older, the younger quarterbacks will get to make their case on why they should be the next QB to lead the franchise.

Former Temple star, Haason Reddick should cause havoc for opposing teams quarterbacks alongside Chandler Jones.

Tonight's game will take place 8 PM EST on NBC & NFL Network.
