It’s time to sign Dez Bryant

The stars have aligned. It’s time for the Patriots to sign the best wide receiver on the free agent market.

Since his April 13th release from the organization that drafted him with the 24th overall pick in 2010, Dez Bryant has been testing the waters carefully. He reportedly turned down a “multi-year offer” from Baltimore’s Ozzie Newsome in hopes for a one year “prove-it” deal and a chance to hit the open market again in 2019.

On Monday, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that Bryant only wants to play for a contender this season.
