Title is misleading...Dez only wants to sign a one year deal so that if he balls out he can re up for another big contract...

Teams don't want to give him a one year deal they want to give him a mulit year deal and he doesn't want that...

I believe the ravens offered him a multi year deal already and he turned it down citing he only wants a 1 year deal...

I am pretty sure in the end he ends up on the giants...

its a combination of things. hes 30, his skills his diminished, he never really improved on his routes, his hands were never amazing. plus too much attention will be paid to him off the field (on sidelines or else) so hes not viewed as a valuable vet asset.

he'll get signed tho, but no one is viewing him as a 'must-sign' now.

Racist teams are afraid of a confident black guy, what's new? This guy was a top 5 receiver a couple years ago and is still at least top 20 and you are telling me no one wants him even as a WR2 ? Not even on a discount deal?

If this was some 5'9 white bum with "intangibles" and "grit" and "deceptive speed" that averaged 400 yards and 2 TDs a year he woulda been signed on the first day of free agency

I think him getting cut deep into free agency after team's with money have already spent and him still wanting to be paid as a top guy for 1 year plays a big part in it. I'm guessing plenty of team's wanna at least test the "Dak was the reason Dez isn't producing" theory out at a more team friendly number.
