Dez Bryant's contract snub actually bailed out the Ravens

Wide receiver Dez Bryant made it clear that he has no regrets turning down an offer from the Baltimore Ravens despite not drawing any other reported interest.

The feeling should be mutual.

The Ravens would've generated a lot of national buzz by signing Bryant. It would've gone down as one of the most high-profile free-agent signings in the team's 23-year existence.

But, football-wise, this represented a redundant move. Bryant is a physical possession receiver who will come up big in the red zone. That's the exact description of Michael Crabtree, who was signed by the Ravens earlier in free agency.
