Sam Williams looks close and training camp is still 2 months from now? GREAT news!!!

More notes:

Slot is the most important CB position in Eberflus's scheme. It's no wonder he wants Bland there. Thomas also makes sense because the position is part-corner, part-safety with run-stopping and pass-rushing responsibilities.

Yeah, people don't want Bland there, but especially in this defense, he's incredibly important. Plus he's our best slot corner.

No diss on Lewis but Bland was better in the slot than he was. That’s high praise

Should we be concerned about James being absent?

Depends on why

But honestly I dont have any real expectations from him. I can see hin getting the Eric Scott " we traded a pick for him so he is making the roster" treatment

Very true

While also being our 2nd best outside CB ..

Kemon Hall is an interesting case . Hopefully he makes a case as depth at CB .

He was. I felt we had to have him there because Lewis had to play slot. But yeah Bland should be fine there….

Cowboys OTA notes week two:

- QB Dak Prescott continues to flash his mobility. Does not look like he’s fresh off a hamstring injury. I had him charted at 14-for-18 passing with two drops from Luke Schoonmaker and CeeDee Lamb. One Kaiir Elam PBU and one miss on a tough throw down the left sideline.

- RB Miles Sanders flashed multiple times today. Had two completions (screen, swing) and bounced an inside run out for a good gain. Has a spring in his step, fluid runner. Worked with first team alongside Javonte Williams

- DE Donovan Ezeiruaku was working in 7v7 dropping in coverage in the flat. Looked natural

- Tons of quick game with the offense today with all three QBs. Large handfuls of hitches, curls, swings, screens, crossers

- Much more consistent day from QB Joe Milton than last week’s availability. Had him charted at 7-for-8 (one throw behind Brevyn Spann-Ford). Highlight came on a ~40 yard pass to Ryan Flournoy for a TD. Will Grier was 3-for-3

- In individual drills, DaRon Bland, Kemon Hall, Israel Mukuamu and Zion Childress worked as a slot corner group. Juanyeh Thomas and others also saw time in 11v11, 7v7

- RB Jaydon Blue had some kickoff return burn today

- DE Sam Williams was pretty active with the rehab group. Looks great physically, would have to imagine he’s close

He's a journeyman just like Luq Barcoo. Both have been in the league for years with multiple teams.

James was the worst pick. We should have looked for a TE with that pick.

Spot on. Personally I want Thomas to flat win that spot. We need Bland outside.

No

That is a good word to describe him.

Probably a PS guy but one I'd like to see stick around this year.

Putting Beebe on his back while doing those push-ups would have been more impressive

Quit fat shaming people.
