Dez Bryant’s advisor says Dez wants a new deal after the season

Texas Ace said:
I don't want them to leave per se, but I don't want the guys who deserve better to have their careers rot because they stayed here.

Again, look at Ware and Witten - two HOF talents and good guys who have nothing but their own personal stats to show that they did anything in this league. They should have been on consistent playoff teams but instead they spent more time out of the playoffs than in them.

That's a shame.

The only reason I give a crap about the player is because he's on the team and I hope he means wins for my team, I couldn't care less about his carrer if it's not in a cowboys jersey.
Do you give two shits about Johnson winning a SB???

Calvin Johnson.

And Free Agency is a conduit for great players to leave a bad situation for a better one. I would hate to see him go, but I can't begrudge anyone for doing so either. This franchise is a lost cause right now.

I don't know what to tell you except you have a choice to funnel your preferences to the franchise of your choosing.

In short, there are 31 other teams, Deuce!

Same goes for Ace. That was an idiotic comment he just made. Even if we we're going to rebuild the team, we'd still need key pieces.
 
I'm thinking he needs to be closer to a Marques Colston deal than a Larry Fitzgerald/Calvin Johnson deal.

If he wants Megatron money he can walk imo.

Cowboys' Dez Bryant: I deserve to be paid like top WR

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000353800/article/dez-byrant-i-deserve-to-be-paid-like-a-top-wr

Oh gawd. I don't think he would hold the Cowboys hostage but when I hear the words "I deserve", it makes me leery. If he finishes putting it all together and can stay healthy he's probably worth it but we've been bitten in the arse so often the last five years or so by big contracts that I have visions of perpetual 8-8 seasons.

He also talks about giving the Cowboys a hometown discount so take that for what it's worth.
 
There won't be a discount. That's nice to say but I think that's just fantasy.

He hopes to spend his entire career with the Cowboys, who could use the franchise tag to keep him each of the next two seasons. Bryant didn't dismiss the thought of giving Dallas a bit of a hometown discount in exchange for the security of getting an extension before the final season of his rookie deal.

"I'm loyal to the squad," Bryant said. "I've always been. Me and my agent are going to talk about [a hometown discount]. We'll talk about it. You know, this is big. This is life-changing. Like I said, I've done everything asked of me, and we'll see what happens."

I know he said it. What I'm saying is that when the dollars start being discussed I think it will be a different story. Nice sentiment but call me skeptical.

Yeah, I don't see it happening either. He and his agent will shoot for top dollar.
 
Otherwise why come out and say the top WR stuff. If the hometown discount was so important "paid like a top WR" wouldn't have even been brought up. You just go in to Jerry's office and get a deal.

Actually he said he deserves to be paid like the top receiver. To me it was more about Bryant showing his confidence that he believes he is the best WR in the NFL. Dez is actually one of the few Cowboys players that I think is dumb enough to actually give us a hometown discount. I know you guys all hate the Cowboys but Dez seems to legitimately love it here.
