One of the stars of the Dallas Cowboys is expected to be given his walking papers today.

According to reports, wide receiver Dez Bryant is in meeting with the Cowboys and is expected to be released on Friday.

In eight seasons with the Cowboys, Bryant has racked up 7,459 receiving yards and 73 touchdowns in 113 games. His best stretch in the league came from 2012-2014 when he had 3,935 receiving yards and 31 touchdowns.

Since then, Bryant has failed to produce a 1,000-yard season, including putting up 838 yards in 2017.

Detroit Lions Perfect 2018 NFL Mock Draft: This one counts!

On April 26th-28th, the Detroit Lions will participate in the 2018 NFL Draft at AT&T Stadium in Arlington Texas and after coming up short of the NFL Playoffs this past season, there is no question that general manager Bob Quinn has his work cut out for him as far as improving the roster.

Up to this point, the biggest move Quinn has made in free agency is using the franchise tag on defensive end Ezekiel Ansah. In addition, the Lions released former first-round pickEric Ebron, which came to a surprise to many. Because of that move, it seems likely that Quinn will look to the NFL Draft for Ebron’s replacement, but the question is, in what round?

There are also concerns on both the offensive and defensive line that must be addressed if the Lions want any chance of making a run in the NFC North this coming season and those areas MUST be addressed in the early rounds.

I have been very vocal about my belief the Lions DO NOT have to draft a running back in the early rounds or even at all. Ameer AbdullahTheo Riddick, and newly acquired LeGarrette Blount are good enough to get the job done IF and only IF Quinn can solidify the offensive line.
