Cowboys Break OTA: Jaylon “Doesn’t Look Good Right Now”

jazzcat22 · May 28, 2021

So for the usuals "dislikers"

If Jaylon, or any player were to look good, it would be...meh, it is only in their underwear, the pads aren't on.
A few mediots say he does not look as good, so you all run with it to pile on your usual crap.
So, pads aren't on, so it doesn't matter?

I am not defending him by no means. but we as fans did not see him, only have the words of a few mediots which sounds at least one of them is very biased. As well coming on a surgery.

But hey flame on as usual. I will wait until PS games, then still will wait for real games, on any player.
Same for Parsons, looks great, and is great news. Let's see for real. I hope for the best from both of them.

Jaylon is also going into the season knowing that the Cowboys wanted to trade him and nobody wanted him.

So, the team he plays for knows he's a bum and all the other teams do too.

Poor guy....

This sounds like a recipe for him being forced to take a pay cut to stay in Dallas next year.

I don't know if that would even save him. He's just not good. The pay cut he would have to take would be massive and I doubt his willing to do that.

Yet another extended contract screwed up by JJ.

Should never have been drafted as high as he was. 6th round, a good risk. 2nd round, not a good risk...

Over $35 million guaranteed, not sure if cutting him would help the team much in that regard, but if he's not doing the job, doesn't matter. Take the cap hit and move on....

Jaylon was washed out of many run plays last year.

I guess we could sub him out on run plays. Problem is compounded with him not able to cover TEs and RBs.

I guess we could use him to blitz. Problem is he is soft and has no speed or burst.

He does still excel at tackles 7 yards past the LOS.

Unless he miraculously improves this year I don't want it to save him. The guy just rubs me the wrong way. That being said, getting cut and not being signed is a good incentive to take a pay cut and stay in Dallas, a place where this guy thinks he has a brand.

The guy was never “fluid” in a Cowboys uniform

He is pretty fluid when he sees a microphone.

This clown is impossible to like.

but when he starts speaking it turns to syrup :lmao:

I am familiar with a lot of country anachronisms but man sometimes he leaves me looking for the missing translation book.

Typical for people that lack self awareness. He is not aware, at all, of how clownish he is. The guy is a total clown show.

you have to luv whenever a negative report comes out of from media its heralded lauded and jumped on like the gospel, if its positive they call the the reporters paid patsies and say they are hack homer jones boys..

ahh the narratives around here..whatever fits

Jaylon still having "drop foot" would be news. It would also be noticeable. There's no evidence in how he moves that this is the case.

What are you talking about?? He literally has to pick up his foot to turn and cannot move laterally. That is because of the injury. He also has a strange gate in his run that he never had at Notre Dame. In 2018 he looked like he never had an injury but the last two seasons you could clearly see something is wrong with his leg physically.

Frozen700 · May 28, 2021

Don't really like him, seems like a decent guy, but below average player

He still doesn't wear a brace. So that shouldn't be the excuse. According to Nate & Jesse he doesn't have football as his priority.

Nate and Jessie.

I don’t see it. To me his problem is between the ears. He looks like a guy that is not prepared to play. Used to dominating physically but can’t do it in the NFL. Doesn’t have the work ethic it takes to be great in the NFL. Above all he is preserving himself for life after football.

They noted that since he’s had offseason wrist injury it’s probably played into slowing him down but they still feel “he does not look as fluid as he has in the past”. They sounded pretty disappointed and said it was “refreshing” to see the difference between him and Parsons. Hopefully he gets going by week 1 because if not he’s outta here in 2022.

It’s around the 10:20 mark btw.

How did his glasses look?

stiletto · May 28, 2021

Has he ever looked fluid? He's always looked gimpy to me so if he looks worse then how is he even a backup at this point? Maybe a June 1st cut?
