Dooley much more of a "technician" than Jimmy Robinson

[Zordon]

The last two wide receiver coaches for the Dallas Cowboys were well-respected in the profession. Jimmy Robinson and Ray Sherman seemed to be players' coaches, if you will, and the receivers quickly bonded with them.

PODCASTDarren Woodson joins Fitzsimmons & Durrett to discuss why the Tampa 2 defense is easier to run than a 3-4 scheme, why he thinks the Cowboys' leaked draft board is a big deal and if RG III is doing too much talking this offseason.

Listen Now enters Derek Dooley, a former head coach in the college game.

"He came in right (away) and told us who he is and what he's about, and you have to accept it," Dez Bryant said. "He's hands on with us. That’s what we all love. He's a great coach and he makes things a lot smoother and easier for us."

Fellow receiver Dwayne Harris said Robinson, who is now a coaching consultant for the Cowboys, wasn't much of a technician in comparison to the new coach.

"A lot different," Harris said. "Jimmy was more of a receivers coach. Dooley is more of a technician. He wants us to get our routes (down), I think Robinson was a different type of coach. It wasn’t about technique with him, just play football."

Interesting.

Jimmy Robinson never seemed like a players coach to me. I always though he was a technician.

ZOMG I hope Robinson never let the WRs vent to him.
