If I have a pet cat that's currently on the Dallas Cowboys, it's Semi Fehoko.
I'm totally Smitten.
I feel like he can turn into a dark horse type of player, and really just blow up out of nowhere, much like Miles Austin's career. However, I feel like Semi may be able to get to that level faster.
The question is, with our roster being so deep at wide receiver, will he ever get the chance to prove himself?
I understand the dilemma. Still, Fehoko has enough of the kind of talent that NFL teams covet, you could never hide him on your practice squad.
If he gets cut here, chances are, another team will pick him up.
But if I'm the Cowboys, I make him my kick off and punt returner.
And I find a way to get him involved in our offense.
I can't remember who. But someone the other day said, he could be like a poor man's Deebo Samuel. And he does have similar athleticism. So, it's not entirely unthinkable.
That said, it's also possible that he really shows up to camp a new player after a year to digest it all.. And maybe he earns a spot as the #4, 5 guy, as the depth chart would have it.
If he can't win the 4th or 5th position, then you keep him anyway, and make him your special teams return man.
Thoughts?
