I’m all for the protest but they shouldn’t be “allowed” to do anything. It’s not their team.

The protest need to shift all focus back to the police but it’s not even about them anymore.

white ppl has successfully curved that shit.

so which form of protest will shift the focus back on police brutality and social injustices committed against black people in your opinion?
 
Picking up the WR from the bears was a unnecessary move right now and picking up Coleman from Carolina was also a bad move.

If we was patient we could have had Mathieu. All Pro caliber player instead of a average nigga.

I don’t think Dez can work in our offense though. You have to be highly intelligent to learn our offense
 
1. Get LeVeon signed

2. Cut Mike Mitchell

3. Make a major acquisition at safety or mlb if we can afford it. Stop going after cheap FA. We need a difference maker.

4. Depending on if we sign a good fa at MLB or Safety go after those positions in the draft.

Either Rashaan Evans, Derwin James, or the S from Penn St.

5. Draft another versatile back like Penny, Ito Smith or Kerryon Johnson

James ain’t dropping that far
 
I'm hurt bro I've been watching dez since osu and to see him grow up all these years and being on my favorite teams. I can't believe that did it this year tbh. Seeing ware get cut and now dez bring me to cowboy tears

Dez Bryant blames coaches, his former teammates who are “Garrett’s guys” for his release

Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant said he would have taken a pay cut if it was offered, but it wasn’t. That just solidified his feeling that some coaches and some former teammates had it in for him.

“I’m not here to bash anybody, but they know, man,” Bryant told Jane Slater of NFL Network. “They know. They know. The way this whole situation got handled, I felt like I asked some of them to be a man about some of the situations a long time ago, and they couldn’t. I’m not talking about no players, because all the players we A1. That’s one thing that we did. We learned from one another. . . . I’m trying my best to sugarcoat it, but I can’t.”

Bryant clarified he was talking about “some of the coaches” and later did talk about some players.

The Cowboys have turned over their coaching staff, and receivers coach Derek Dooley is one of those who left in the offseason. Head coach Jason Garrett and offensive coordinator Scott Linehan remain.

“Hey, I’m a direct guy. I only know one way to be. I wake up, sleep, breathe football,” Bryant said. “If somebody don’t like me, I would love to know that. I think you’re supposed to go about it that way, learn how to respect and work with somebody even if you don’t like that person. I did it. . . . I’m not here to bash anybody, but I’ve got to keep it real. I always kept it real. Jerry Jones, he loved me to death, and I loved him, too. I honestly did. I honestly believe in my heart this was a hard decision for him. When it’s five to six guys at a table against one guy, you’ve got to do it. Like Jerry told me in our meeting, he didn’t ask me to take a pay cut. He didn’t want that. That further lets me believe what I thought a long time ago.

“I don’t know. I don’t want to say it’s emotional. I’m not trying to call anybody out, but at the same time, this situation was very unfair to me. It was an unfair situation because if they did want to get rid of me, they could have told me that. They could have told me that, and I would have respected it. Just like I told Jerry in the meeting, I respect his decision.”

Bryant, who had a $12.5 million base salary and a $16.5 million cap number for 2018, was told Friday the Cowboys no longer wanted him. He blames some teammates for working against him, though he would not name names.

“I’ll say this right here: I believe that Garrett’s guys [worked against him]. I would say that,” Bryant said. “I believe that. I truly believe that. I won’t put no names out, but they know, and I want them to know on this air I know. I’ll shoot them a text message and let them know. Little do they know is they can wear that ‘C’ [for captain] all they want to, but in that locker room, they know who they run and they talk to. They know who they communicate with. Everybody know where the real love is at, and I’m not throwing anybody under the bus, but that’s the difference between me and them.”

The Cowboys’ captains in 2017 were Jason Witten, Dak Prescott, Dan Bailey, Tyrone Crawford, Sean Lee and Orlando Scandrick. Scandrick also was released this offseason. He signed with Washington.

Bryant is hoping to sign with an NFC East team, too, so he can play against the Cowboys twice a year.

“It’s a new chapter for me,” Bryant said. “It’s a new chapter and I’m ready to play ball, and I think I got an extra boost to want to do good, to want to get my body right, to want to perform at the highest level. I got something to prove to those coaches. I think they done came up with too much talk about me already. I’m ready to just prove them wrong.”
