The bigger question is do you have warrants or other legal issues, seems everybody Cowboys does, hope you left the AR-15 at home.

Tapped and taco look incredible. really working hard and have such good movement. Tyrone ended the practice working shirtless and its just crazy to see how big he is and how long his arms are. I would say his arms almost look like manute bols but 10000 times thicker. Just insane. T-Fred also was shirtless and .... not so impressive lol. but super super thick.

Some quick notes I jotted down from camp. Even though I am from Cali this is the first camp I have attended. First off Cowboys nation could not have been cooler. Everyone just pumped up but friendly and chill. No angry drunks or attitudes. Just thousands of people who love Americas Team. The pro shop trucks are just printing money. Not enough people working there so it took forever but I did break down and bought a Jaylon Smith jersey! The offense was practicing on the opposite side so I basically saw the D. The only quick notes I jotted down offensively: 1) I don't get Linehans love for Kellen Moore, he doesnotbelong in the NFL but there are so few even decent back up QB's in the NFL. 2) I am excited about Ryan Switzer but boy is he even smaller in person than I thought. 3) Rico Gathers is huge and athletic but still looks like a guy unsure of how to play TE in the NFL. Defensively: 1)( Linebackers) Of course I looked at Jaylon like everyone else. I stood 10 feet from where the LB's were doing drills and I didn't see a trace of a limp. They were obviously not going full speed with no contact but he showed good lateral quickness. Did he look like the guy that played at Norte Dame? Of course not but I see them taking it slow with him and he has made very encouraging progress. 2) Sean Lee is such a leader, he just oozes leadership. 3) (D Line) Malik Collins is a flat out stud! Taco looked good and showed some nice spin and spin moves. Stephen Pea looked quick with a very nice burst. D. Law looks thick in the middle. I had read his weight was down but he sure looked overweight too me. I shouldn't expect much from a late round pick like Joey Ivie but man he looked really slow and stiff. 4) (DB's) So many new faces out there but the unit looks so much faster and quicker overall. Of course I was keeping a close eye on our high draft picks but two other guys caught my eye. Marquez White looked so good it took me by surprise. He looked liked he belonged with a really good pair of hands and a quick feet. Xavier Woods has such a natural and smooth backpedal and just looks like a football player. Never thought I would say this but Jeff Heath looked very impressive. He looked big, fast and the ball stuck to his hands like glue. Tomorrow should be fun!

I'll also be at practice on Monday and Tuesday and will take pics and post updates. Right now I'm chilling in a hotel 10 minutes from Oxnard right by the ocean and its 65 degrees

Wow, nice! That's quite a radical departure from where I am in San Antonio, where there's been a high of around 100 lately.

Thank you, brother. Your insight and feedback is much, much appreciated. You are part of the reason why the Zone is the best. Please most more, too, brother :star:

A Jaylon jersey! How awesome, man!
