And I've heard plenty of fans, be it Skins fans and even Cowboys fans say we'd regret getting rid of this bush leaguer.

Here's the thing, in the 2004 game against Pittsburgh Bryant refused to come out of the game in the second half and Dallas had to waste a timeout to get him out of the game. That was the final straw and he was traded the next day (Dallas was leading by 10 points in the 4th quarter and had a final drive to win the game, so they could've used that timeout).

Roy Williams and Dan Campbell, both respected lockerroom guys called him a team cancer and Campbell said that "no matter how many times you throw his way, he's always complaining about not getting enough looks." But the real killer was Darren Woodson, whom I've never heard say a bad word about a teammate or a player to the point where it got annoying. Even he referred to Bryant as a prima donna and was glad they got rid of him.

If that doesn't say it all, then there's the Browns who had no interest in re-signing him despite putting up good numbers in 2005.

Awesome talent, but he has little refined skills and a 10 cent brain.
