#81 Andy Jones, WR

This kid Jones has been abusing defensive backs and on one play he beat Deji Olatoye so bad that Deji seemingly tripped out of his shoes. This is one crowded wide receiving unit and anyone who wants to make it will have to beat out Devin Street or Lucky Whitehead. Maybe they have a shot at sneaking Andy Jones to the practice squad but I'll have my doubts if we continue to see him do what he's been doing.

Jones has shown to be a fluid athlete that plays with an edge much like what we see out of the All-Pro Dez Bryant. Jones has made every snap count for him and he's starting to catch the eye of the veterans, He was rewarded yesterday by getting some time to run with the ones. Acquisitions are a 365-day business as Jason Garrett has continuously let us know. You are always churning the roster and that means that just because Lucky Whitehead and Devin Street are good guys, they haven't earned anything just yet.

Andy Jones has size and physicality that makes you turn your head and look. All the plays that we've seen may suggest the Cowboys have found a new UDFA worth bringing along. Like I said, it's crowded at the top, Andy Jones has to continue to show that he's different and can give the Cowboys something more than what they currently have. So far, he's been doing well with his opportunity,

#66 Mike McAdoo, DE

The first thing that jumps out at you is his tremendous size at 6' 7". He's another guy that has been making huge strides. He's likely to get some work with the ones too as he's beaten everybody else. He's got some power and quickness off the edge that jumps out and grabs your attention. He's got a violent nature to him as well and with a little Marinelli Magic, who knows what that can do for him?

We hear a lot about getting that eight-man rotation together and that means the young guys will get ample opportunities to earn a spot in that lineup. Rome wasn't built in a day and neither is a pass rush. For all the negativity that we've thrust upon this unit, you have to commend their response. Does that mean it will translate on gamedays? Well, who really knows but you have to at least try to see what you have.

McAdoo has been thoroughly impressive with what we've seen thus far and now it's time to see how he does in this scrimmage. Everyone from Stephen Jones to Bryan Broaddus has mentioned him as being very impressive. Right now, McAdoo is outplaying the rookie and my pet cat Charles Tapper, that's enough to at least give him a shot to win your hearts and minds.

The audio playing right now is annoying. Funked out music with audio highlights from last season. Ugh.
