Plus Darren Woodson talks up Jason Witten, Dez Bryant goes Hollywood, and lots of people still fighting, but in a good way.

The action resumed with the Dallas Cowboys back in pads in training camp. Jeremy Mincey was in pads, there were lots of good plays and no apparent significant injuries (although Will Smith did leave the field and there was no word on his return). But rabblerousr will catch you up on what happened in practice. Meanwhile, there was plenty of other news to cover.

It was the big news off the field for the Cowboys. In a move that probably should have come a few years ago, Darren Woodson, perhaps the best safety that every wore the Star, is now going to get an honor he certainly deserves. And perhaps like it was for Charles Haley, this will be a boost to his chances to get into the Hall of Fame.

Darren Woodson: Dallas Cowboys' Jason Witten greatest tight end ever - Dallas Cowboys Blog - ESPN

And since we are honoring Woody, here is his take on someone who will join him in the Ring one day.


"You cannot tell me there's a better tight end to ever play the game," Woodson said. "I look at Tony Gonzalez. He wouldn't block a soul. A soul. Great, dynamic in the passing game, runs great routes, but won't block a soul. Antonio Gates, turn the film on of him. He won't touch a soul. You already know Jimmy Graham won't block anybody.

"This guy (Jason Witten), not only is he a great pass catcher, but he'll do everything. He lines up on the edge. He'll reach block you. He'll cut you off. He'll motion in the backfield. He'll lead draw you as a fullback. He does everything. He's a complete tight end."
