Coaching staff buzzing over Revel

That's great news Diggs replacement almost ready to go

He's a rookie coming off surgery. I would dial down the expectations.

I do expect him to be a monster in 2026. If he can contribute a little this season, I would consider that a bonus.

And he's also a rookie w/out the benefit of spring/summer practice reps.

That said, a number of folks saw him as a first round talent, coming in as perhaps the 4th best CB in the class. If I give my dreamy optimism a little leash...maybe he starts and provides a little boost by the last few games of '25.

Normally I would say blah blah blah PR machine blah. But since the last rookie to wow the coaching staff in practice was Eze and he is doing great gives me some confidence in this assessment. Kind of excited and looking forward to seeing him on MNF.

Me too.

 

[Pompey-Cowboy]

I mean i'd give anyone a shot on D right now.

Does he fit with Eberflus' zonal system (rhetorical). Him and Bland could well give a potent duo (in time), but sounds like both would prefer a Man approach.

As long as his muscles are strong and effective, he should be able to give a good account of himself. Oftentimes, the outward appearance can be deceptive. He's been tested to a fair extent by the staff and there's likely a good reason for their "buzzing." The Cowboys' staff has tested many specimens. They won't be reluctant to see him being tested in the weeks to come.

His right thigh looks nothing but stout. Difficult to judge his injured leg with the camera angle and brace.

The upper leg looks pretty stout to me as well. It's not only how big your muscles are but also how dense they are. CeeDee is a good example of that. Let's hope he doesn't become injury prone.

Heard the same thing about Carson lol

It's giving training camp vibes

 

[Hawkeye19]

It’s interesting that the D took on a different vibe, tone, and mentality the moment Diggs was off the field.

Another reason why they may be slow to get him back out there. Negativity and toxicity is contagious, and if he has been trying to take bricks out of the house the staff is trying to build— he needs to be removed— like a cancer.

We can only hope Revel is as good as advertised. We need more DBs like Bland that can play the ball and stick their noses in there and tackle.

The sad part is he is more than likely the 2nd best corner on the team without taking a snap

We don't body shame here.

Hoping Carson starts getting it.

 

[Acceptablename]

He brings hope to a much to a struggling DB group
