Will Dwayne Bowe's baggage scare teams away?

He has dark skin and he's loud...

He's never been arrested to my knowledge, let alone convicted of anything.

He's put up with bad QB play for his entire career and still been productive.

Baggage? That's ridiculous.

I think the author is scared of D-Bowe's "package" and just misspelled it.

Actually he's not even loud. He may have had a bit of a tendency, in the beginning, toward future diva-ness, but Haley washed that off of him and made him a solid player. So what if he on occasion points at his jersey number? Tha's not a "baggage." this man is one of the few in this past miserable season who fought hard in every game. People forget how not having a real QB has kept D-Bowe down. A WR with a "baggage" would have complained about that many times. I LOVE that we have him and deeply HOPE the FO is wise enough to keep him.

There are only two negatives to his game:

1) Lacking top end speed.

2) Gets nervous and when the game is on the line and drops the "big" catch. Drops happen. No WR is perfect. Bowe has a very bad habit of dropping balls that could change the outcome of the game.

1) He wasn't drafted for his speed. But more for his other physical talent like catching in traffic and runs after the catch.

2) Yes he has had a few of those late game drops. But I submit they are less than it looks. It's just magnified because we have been a miserable team finding ourselves in those type of situations too often. I chalk up Bowe's drops more to him wanting to do too much by himself and losing concentration because of it. Much like TrINT before he became Trent.
