2. Dez just wants a one-year deal

Bryant reportedly turned down a three-year deal with the Ravens worth $7 million a season because he wants one more big contract. Clearly he feels he was marginalized in the Cowboys offense with Dak Prescott, something the numbers bear out.

Is that because Bryant wasn’t getting open consistently, or because Prescott is less comfortable throwing the 50/50 balls where Dez excels? Tony Romo would throw Bryant open, or put the ball where only Dez could get it. Can he still do that?

Bryant wants a prove-it deal and where better to prove it than with Aaron Rodgers who can fit the ball throw a key hole even in a dead sprint. If he wants to win and he wants to cash in, there’s no better marriage of the two than in Green Bay.
