4. Sign Dez Bryant
Deep down, most Philadelphia fans cringe over the thought of Dez Bryant joining the team not because of the fact that he used to play for the Dallas Cowboys, but also his production has been on the decline over the last couple of seasons. Keep in mind that it’s Week 3, and Bryant has yet to find a home for the 2018 season, despite numerous teams looking for help at the receiver position.
In other words, most teams feel the same exact way about Bryant when it comes to believing his best days are well behind him, but also that doesn’t mean someone isn’t going to give him an opportunity at some point. Football fans remember well just how effective of a receiver Bryant was from 2012-14 when he combined for 41 trips into the end zone, and even though he hasn’t been close to that level in years, it may be worth taking a risk on.
Money would most likely be the deciding factor if the Eagles were to ever express interest in Bryant since the wideout seems like he’s been asking for way too much, which is why he remains a free agent. But at the right price to help in the mean time, maybe Philadelphia would explore the option of Bryant.
