Twitter: Cowboys shuffle roster... release Robinson, signed Tyler Patmon

[speedkilz88]

Is Robinson the Safety that got injured?

wasnt that ahmad dixon?

I think they both got something going on in the injury department.

Ahmad Dixon had a hip problem and didn't participate. Robinson went down during one of the practices.

Had a dramatic impact in his first and only year as a Cowboy ... A three-year starter at Kansas who graduated with a year of eligibility remaining ... Played in 35 career games with the Jayhawks and earned first-team Academic All-Big 12 honors in 2010 and 2012.

Became a crucial part of the OSU secondary, finishing tied for the team lead with nine pass breakups and 13th with 30 tackles and 28 solo stops ... Led all corners with four tackles for loss ... Made one of Oklahoma State's most memorable plays of the season when he picked up a fumble in the Baylor game and scored on a 78-yard return to put the Cowboys up 42-10 and seal the win over the No. 3 Bears ... Had an interception against West Virginia ... Credited with one forced fumble.

At Kansas: Started 32 games in three years for the Jayhawks, amassing 142 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss, 22 passes broken up and six interceptions ... Led the team with three interceptions and ranked second with eight passes broken up in 2012 ... His 58 tackles in 2012 were good for fourth on the team ... Returned an interception 54 yards for a touchdown against Northern Illinois in 2012 ... Ranked third on the team with 5.5 tackles for loss in 2010.

High School: A two-year letterwinner at Vista Ridge HS... Played cornerback and wide receiver... Earned all-district first team honors as a junior and a senior... As a senior he recorded 37 tackles, two pass breakups and two interceptions... On offense he had seven receptions for 113 yards and two scores... Blocked one punt and two field goals... As a junior he had 45 tackles, one interception, 11 passes broken up and forced one fumble... Also ran track and was a state qualifier... Earned academic all-district honors.

Personal: Son of Shaun and Todd Patmon... Has one brother and two sisters... Father played football at Central Oklahoma, while both grandfathers played college football (one at Oklahoma and one at Oklahoma State)... Two uncles also played football at Oklahoma... Would like to play in the NFL or run the family insurance business.

The Dave Campo connection pays off in spades yet again.

Looks like a smart kid, possible DB QB for defensive side of ball. They need someone that can set up their alignment and make adjustments.

I googled Patmon and, well....

I googled him and this comes up

Ahmad Dixon had a hip problem and didn't participate. Robinson went down during one of the practices.

I think Dixon had a groin injury.

 

[speedkilz88]

I think Dixon had a groin injury.

Garrett said groin in his pc, but Dixon told everyone it was his hip.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

Monte needs to get out of the sun and take a nap.

Monte Kiffin is a Greek God.

 

[BAT]

Garrett said groin in his pc, but Dixon told everyone it was his hip.

I stand corrected. Thanks.

 

[guag]

his memory likely goes in and out, and he probably doesn't remember anyone in-between current players and when Barber played..."it's 2000 and what?"

 

[Fredd]

love this

btw, I REALLY love your pic in your sig....

Thanks, can't take credit for it though -- I found it near the top of a Google search for Zack Martin (aside from pictures of some blonde teenager lol)

 

[Zimmy Lives]

This is what I googled:

 

[Alexander]

5'10" 180 lbs.

That is sadly the case. A lot of good corners are getting bypassed with the trend for height and "length". It is almost as if teams are really overweighing the physical aspects in an overreaction to the idea that they just can't defend the big WRs. What is a good indicator about this player is that he has a lot of tackles for loss. That indicates he has the skills to blitz, can tackle and is not afraid of physical contact. That is probably where Kiffin got the idea he is similar to Barber.

i agree...Guag man has the hottest sig going. I like to view it more than his comments...lol jk

Seems a tad early for Monte Kiffin to be comparing Patmon to Ronde Barber -- guess the old fella just got carried away some.

I don't think he was saying he will be the next Ronde Barber, just saying he reminds him of Barber. Maybe it's his work ethics, attitude, style, his demeanor.

 

[OhSnap]

If the Cowboys cut a safety you know he sucks gravel.

Coaches tend to identify traits of prospects that they have in common with past players. Parcells did the same thing.
