... I know WR coach from one team watched Dez's tape, came out saying: "That's the best prospect I've seen at this position in 10 years."
Which of course begs the question: who did that scout see 10 years ago that was better than Bryant? Ten years ago could either mean anywhere between 1999 and 2001:
1999 1st round WRs: Torry Holt, David Boston, Troy Edwards
2000 1st round WRs: Peter Warrick, Plaxico Burress, Travis Taylor, Sylvester Morris, R. Jay Soward
2001 1st round WRs: David Terrell, Koren Robinson, Rod Gardner, Santana Moss, Freddie Mitchell, Reggie Wayne
...It's gotta be R. Jay Soward!
It's amazing how many of those players had legal, drug, alcohol, and/or suspension problems.
2003 1st round WRs: Charles Rogers, Andre Johnson, Bryant Johnson
2004 1st round WRs: Larry Fitzgerald, Roy Williams, Reggie Williams, Lee Evans, Michael Clayton, Michael Jenkins, Rashaun Woods
2005 1st round WRs: Braylon Edwards, Troy Williamson, Mike Williams, Matt Jones, Mark Clayton, Roddy White
2006 1st round WRs: Santonio Holmes
2007 1st round WRs: Calvin Johnson, Ted Ginn, Dwayne Bowe, Robert Meachem, Buster Davis, Anthony Gonzalez
...Just incredible.

...Just incredible.
I don't think it's that incredible.
Bryant was considered the best of the stud class of Big 12 receivers that year.
He's not the best of the last 10 years, and the Scout is only going by the tape, not his ability to know an offense, but if you're just going by the tape, only Calvin Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald were more dominant in the last 10 years. Maybe Peter Warrick but he was used differently. Not a classic WR.
Re: OT: Breer: Scout: Dez Bryant best WR prospect in 10 years
Bryant will be good, but there's no way that he'll end up being better than Calvin Johnson (who finally has a good QB to throw him the ball) or Larry Fitzgerald. Breer, pretty clearly, has his own agenda here. Bryant was his guy and we didn't go with him. Usually I'm able to give guys in the media the benefit of the doubt but not here. He's got an axe to grind.
