According to reports on practice, Clinton-Dix hasn't even been as good as Heath. Apparently Darian Thompson is playing better.
Heath was always where he was supposed to be and was not a terrible S. His physical limitations kept him from being a good S, especially on open field tackles when the ball carrier had time to make a move. Heath simply could not mirror any type of move, and that's what kept him from being better.

IMO this defense, if they add Earl Thomas, could be one of the best defenses in league history except for the '85 Bears and '00 Ravens and maybe the '13 Seahawks

thats the first I heard on that. Got any sauce on it? If thats true...that would be stunning.

Exactly. What can we tell from just practice anyway? This is the one and only reason preseason games are missed.

Some guys look worse in practice than they do in games. And like you said, I have heard nothing about Clinton-Dix; good or bad.

Yeah if he's punching teammates, I no longer want him in Dallas. Roll with Rhodes and Dix for this season, draft a new playmaking safety next year.
Kinda don’t want him to come either tbh. Not only is he a head case now but he’s also a step slow and has trouble picking up schemes that aren’t the basic legion of boom cover 3.

If he comes on one of those classic Stephen Jones cheap deals ok. Would at that point want us to find a way to use all 3 safeties because we’ll probably have more talent there than CB.

He is being touted by other players and current staffers as being HUNGRY. Got it? Good. I'm here to help.

LOL. But, but, but, you know he's "hungrier" than a guy on a different team you don't follow. Gonna start calling you Mr. Tabloid. Just throw crap out there with no basis in anything other than to "belong" to a discussion.
