Fair enough, that's one NFL player in the last 50 years.

For sure...a completely rechanged man has emerged with authorization of those under 30. That's it, they just quit because they can't succeed.How about I make a provision for "in the last 70 years" then
They need to be careful and ease him into action. I know he has been working out a lot but football movements are much different than simulated football movements.
Many players need to be eased back into action just from the few months off between seasons. With 4 years away...

For sure, I have been wondering why all the seniors in my area of town have just started to disappear...
They were not limited to a 53 man roster and there was no salary cap...In service re-entry gave no adjustment beyond 'MOS' training...and then ready to go back to war.
...just meeting extreme physical demands, lol. With all on the line...They were not limited to a 53 man roster and there was no salary cap...
I don't understand what you're saying here at all.
Anyway, I'll just restate my point here. Every single time we sign a head case, Cowboys fans talk themselves up about how this player is going to change their ways, and I've just seen this song and dance too many times to believe it any more. Rolando McClain will be a changed man inside the Cowboys' structure, Greg Hardy is innocent and his woman is a lying money grubber, Randy Gregory will get the resources he needs from Jerry... I'm sorry, but problems of this magnitude virtually never go away.
Aldon Smith is a violent, low-functioning alcoholic; that's just a fact like the sky is blue. Just scrolling through his Wikipedia page, he's been hit with at least 16 separate charges in the last eight years, including five DUIs. His last DUI was just under a year ago - and y'all are claiming "he's turned his life around"? I get it, as fans that's what we want to think, but I see absolutely no signs to prove it.
What one gets with stereotyping all around your motive and emotions is nothing more than standing in a mirror and blaming everyone else.
Don't even imply YOU and attempting to strap me with YOUR excuse selections...I worked Drug and Alcohol Counselor as a secondary duty function, for 12 years, and a tank commander. The military got around to zero tolerance and removed a lot of dysfunctional dependency, especially involving alcohol. I also was a House Parent in Corpus Christi MHMR when it first came into existence, while attending college.
There are successes in every walk of life...including the NFL. To be correct...
Pull YOUR head out and figure something out or just don't respond unintelligently to ME...Not following you here either. I'm blaming Aldon Smith for having 5 DUIs when I should be looking in a mirror and blaming myself for having 0? Are you sure you're sober?

YOU only need be concerned about power to speed ratio currently for Smith...it's obvious you know nothing about recovery beyond throwing around blame to someone else. Seek some adult leadership.
Dallas has a long and pretty good history of dealing with problems in and with players.
You have no clue and are reverting to making stuff up...how long did Reggie White/Ed Too Tall/Harvey Martin, etc....play?If we're just talking raw athleticism, Smith is at an age where athletes regularly decline regardless of wear and tear and he hasn't been in an NFL conditioning program in five years. His athleticism isn't nearly what we once saw.

What? They were 'good?'
It is unfortunate that people don't get treated or paid relative to the importance of their jobs....just meeting extreme physical demands, lol. With all on the line...
Let's look at 1,000 players instead of 3.
There starts to be a terminal decline in sacks among defenders starting by about age 28 - and that's among guys who have kept themselves in NFL shape the whole time.
The top
The top 1/3rd is still going quite strong at age 30...and your point would be? No DeMarcus Ware as well...
Maybe you can instead offer both Smith and Gregory...Cannabis Gummies. Any tests for that yet?
Valid.I'm actually way more optimistic about Gregory than I am about Smith. Think with the league chilling out on their weed enforcement, that he can stay on the field and start moving up his learning curve.
John Gonzales is a lucky SOB. And kind of a goofy lookin dude.I’ve got this thing for Colleen Wolfe.
I'll put it like this - I cannot think of a 1 year "character issues" gamble FA we've signed whose issues have not cropped back up. And to my knowledge, coming back to pro football after 5 years off is unprecedented in the sport.
Very low chance this gamble hits, very high chance it backfires. I'm not enthusiastic about this signing at all.
