Cowboys to pump brakes on LB Jaylon Smith's minicamp workload

[Daillest88]

So the Jones just said a couple weeks ago he might play without the brace. Lol you all really can't see there just being safe with him? No need to rush it.

Not telling you how to feel, I'm saying while others see positives with Jaylon that is how they feel does not mean what so ever that you have to agree. None of us know but there are people who are optimistic based on reports and there is nothing wrong with them feeling that way.

There's a lot of talking about feelings in that post. Not sure how I feel about that.

free country feel however you choose. I saw reports when he was 1st injured to recent reports showing a lot of improvement. Those close to the situation seem to be very optimistic and so that is why I feel as I do. If you think all these reports are BS then fine that is how you see it.

If you are optimistic then that makes me feel better.

What I am getting is that he has been working out with the vets which the rookies have not. Conversely the rookie minicamp would see him working out with the rookies which the vets don't do.

Sounds to me like they are still having him do slightly more than what the vets do and significantly more than what the rookies do. Nevertheless they are reigning him in a bit as he wants to go balls to the wall.

If I remember correctly the coaches go above and beyond in that team period to give rookies "a taste of the NFL." It serves to set expectations and see where players are at. It is very important for players from small schools like Woods.

Not so important for Jaylon who has yet to stop training.

Good, but I'm not here to make you feel better or worse that falls to you

You are a great poster, you always make me feel better.

NO need to rush this. I'm good as long as he's ready for training camp.

The pussification of this team is mind blowing. And we wonder why we are soft/injury prone.

They're just taking precautions. I can't wait to see him in a preseason game.

Watch them hold him out for "precautionary reasons". The kid needs reps. Obviously going to be overly cautious though

Such a versatile meme

We disagree on the self evidence. When do OTAs start?

So you don't think we've seen progress in Smith from wearing a brace to now just needing a tape job?

I beg to differ.

Well then from now on when I read a report about him, I'm going to just ask your opinion of it first before I know what to believe.

I get the impression you are a real joy to be around.

 

[diefree666]

if you look at the post history of those whining about this you will find just about everyone had been predicting that Smith would never play at all. Some here want to be right so badly that they want the kid to fail.

I have the purfect comeback for this. But I don't want to get banned before Jaylons close encounter.

Smart move by the Cowboys brass. The J-Train will be needed in the Fall. Not so much now. Ease him into it.

"pump the brakes"

CBA Floatyworm... CBA.

I will believe the Jaylon hype if and only if I see him on the field during the season next year. Until then we have wasted yet another 2nd rounder.
