Hard Knocks always finds an undrafted dude with a realistic shot at making the roster. It appears that ex-Texas Tech WR Danny Amendola will fill that role this summer.


Amendola was mic'd up this afternoon along with WR coach Ray Sherman. Quote machine Patrick Crayton and Anthony Spencer were also wired.


Amendola really shined during the first couple of practices, highlighted by his diving catch of a deep ball on Day 1. He's been solid since then, but he'll have a hard time sticking with the Cowboys unless they decide to keep six receivers.


Sam Hurd and Miles Austin are the No. 3 and 4 guys, in no particular order. Isaiah Stanback, the ex-college QB who was a fourth-round pick last season, is the biggest threat of the bunch with the ball in his hands and has shown significant progress.


By the way, superstar columnist/blogger Jean-Jacques Taylor wants to make sure you folks don't worry about the lack of a stud No. 2 receiver.

Gotta a feeling he'll be a Arena Bowl stud .........

Glad to read another statement that Stanbach has shown significant progress and is the biggest threat of the bunch with the ball in his hands. Will be real interesting to watch how he develops during rest of TC & what he looks like in those preseason games. I still think his break out year is in 2009 but sure not ruling out the fact he could really come on later this year & provide some help as we get near the playoffs, etc.

How huge would it be for him to be our Marion Barber at the WR position?

I honestly believe that would be better for Stanback


and that is probably why im not a coach on any level, haha.

but seriously Stanback comes off to me as an Arena player.

Dallas kept 6 WRs last year, no reason to think they wont do the same this year.
