"#3

Dez Bryant WR Cowboys

Catch rate: 33.3 percent (23rd). Passer rating:88.2 (fifth). Yards per catch: 17.4 (10th). 

Score: 38. 

Much was made about the lack of separation earned by the Cowboys wide receivers this year. While the 29-year-old is no longer the physical specimen he once was, Bryant is still one of the better 50-50 ball receivers in the game. He's still especially effective in scoring position: Four of Bryant's six touchdowns this season came on tight-window throws. TheCowboys are looking for improved play from their wide receiver position next year, as the unit created too many high-degree-of-difficulty throws for QB Dak Prescott. Part of that should include a role change for Bryant, who struggled to get on the same page with Prescott at times and hauled in just a third of his tight-window targets. Yet, expect Dallas to continue looking his direction on contested throws in the end zone."

 

 

 

Overall catch rate is below average, but passer rating is good. Nice YPC as well. Good for 3rd best.

TWill # 1 WR for us in 2018. Fan freaking tastic.

Or no wait, even better, we can handcuff our selves to drafting the best WR left over at 19. Because there's no better way to approach a draft then to be imprisoned with drafting someone\anyone to man your #1 spot because you don't currently have anyone that can do it so you are going to completely rely on a rookie and hope to God he can give you 800+ yards right out of the gate.

 

 

OR, the best and most Cowboy idea... realease Dez and save $8M. Then give $10M a year to some vet FA who isn't as talented and pencil him in at the #1. Solved!
