When was that video shot, Hardline?

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

When was that from?

I don't know. It's just a gif I found on Blogging The Boys.

Looks like training camp....

He's moving like that WITH the drop foot?!

Who was the guy who said he would never play again.

WHich one? There were a lot of them. I admit that I said he shouldn't be drafted in the 2nd round. LOVE to be wrong in a case like this though. He's a great kid and I feel so damn good for him.

And the dam is breaking on the actual Jaylon Smith news.

Okay, now I'm pumped up. Between Jaylon and Tapper coming back, and the emergence of players like David Irving, this defense might quickly become the strength of this team, without drafting another player. LOL.

Said he can run 4.4's.
Keep your fingers crossed boys and gals.

I am still waiting for the Twitter post from Jaylon Smith's nerve

I just checked his Twitter feed and he is "fired up"

 

[AmericasTeam81]

If Jaylon plays next year, is he eligible for Defensive Rookie of the Year?

 

[Gaede]

This is totally amazing news

 

[Plankton]

Not lying. Spags is likely of the opinion that the player is framing the situation in an optimistic light.

The more I read of the tweets the more I think viewing this as a definitive resolution to his nerve issue is premature.

Spags isn't a member of the media in any real sense. He's more like the Cowboys official media spokesman. He's not going to be snoozing while team insiders talk about Smith and he's privy to a lot of information outside folks don't have. It's big news for everyone.

I want to be excited and delighted like everyone. But I'm going back to "we'll see" mode.

He's getting on my last nerve.

No it's strictly for rookies. Plus he would technically have an extra year of bulking up and learning the playbook.

Well, let's be honest: JS is a helluva lot more important to this organization than RG. That said, I think its admirable that the front office doesn't want to just cast RG aside. Guy is screwed up, but he's still a human being. Hope for the best for him, but fear the worst.

Just so everyone is clear, Jaylon is still wearing a brace and will continue to until/if the nerve fully heals.

When he talked about playing this postseason, he was talking about playing with his brace

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

And here is Archer with the goods. I used to like him more before he to that speech coach to make him lilt when he speaks.

That beings aid still remains one of the few Dallas writers with a head on his shoulders. He knew the right questions to ask. No brace means no foot drop.

gregory is done in the nfl. i dont see how missing basically 2016+2017 and possibly seeing the field till august 2018 will do him any good. ur almost talking about 3 years with 2 games played within that time.

i hope im wrong but this could lead gregory to regress in whatever progress hes made.
