He's like any other spoiled brat diva receiver. He just wants the damn ball. Yeah he was a bitch to the coaches in Detroit, and yeah he was defiant and a troublemaker. But. Fisher will give him a shot, tell him what's up, and then pass him off to Sherman. You know Sherman, right? The only guy who could appease Dez Bryant and get him to play ball?
Sherman was tight with Bryant, allowing him to vent on the sidelines. He also instituted something called “Keepin’ It Real Thursdays” to allow receivers to blow off steam. Miles Austin lamented Sherman’s departure in a PFT Live appearance at the Super Bowl. The Cowboys have hired Jimmy Robinson as wide receivers coach in the meantime. Perhaps Garrett felt Sherman let the receivers get away with too much — just think of the Terrell Owens era in Dallas. Still, it could be even more challenging to manage Bryant without Sherman there.
You know, when the team is actually allowed to speak to Bryant again.

Roll with it, homies. Everyone gets a fresh start. This is a very low risk/potential high reward move, and we all know that Bradford needs him some weapons. There is no down side. If he doesn't work out, you cut him and let him slalom down the waiver wire again. Meh. But if he works out, and he feels appreciated and valuable, then it'll pay off. Maybe even pay off big.
