Twitter: Jaylon Smith making a comeback?

The money went to Smith's head. All about him. Just watch the film.

Who wears a fur coat during global warming? But then again jellyfish have survived without brains for almost a billion years.

H-m-m, I theorize Jaylon Smith is an endangered species! That boogered-up footsie isn't serving him well. (Sigh) -- let's face it.

If you actually watched the man play for this team and still have respect for him then you are blind or insane.

A 4.5 is phenomenal for a LB. He's very fast, and still is. Just can't turn. That's why he was good for one year, until teams learned to simply make him have to turn. He can't. Game over.

It's really not. Also he doesn't run a 4.5. He hasn't in awhile. But yeah, he did have some solid play, but it was more the surroundings. You can literally see it in this video. There is nothing phenomenal about him.

Pointing to tackle totals is about the dumbest approach to analyzing a defensive player.

Especially if that player makes a lot of tackles after allowing the reception.

Yeah, but their limbs regenerate better...or am I thinking of starfish?

This makes no sense. Try again...or watch some of his games

Who? Oh hat guy who constantly quit and gave up on plays. Cant believe he got paid. One of the most embarrassing players to ever wear a cowboys uniform for sure.

Somehow he's managed to have a few fans; fans that don't care about heart and football IQ

Absolutely. His inability to turn has robbed him of everything.

He's prolly still close to a 4.5, and yes, a 4.5 is great for a LB. Ware was a 4.5 guy. Parsons 4.39 at his size is freakish.

I think you are referring to you own statement!!! Speed is negated by lack of lateral agility and burst. See Jeff Heath.

 

[Captain-Crash]

yep, he comes running full speed at you, then you take one step to the left and he's on the ground from missing you. What I see in the video is once he turns it takes a while for him to get back up to speed. I guess that's when he's thinking about celebrating his straight-line speed and not remembering to start back up. oh well, he's gone, we can beat him some more another day.

I always rooted for Jaylon but he has always been soft. I liked him when he made plays and was disappointed when he didn't. In the end I was disappointed.

The nail in the coffin for me was when he started piling on already tackled players and running down the field acting like he made the tackle. I bet there were some grumblings in the locker room about him trying to take credit for other peoples tackles and may have been a reason he was cut in season.
