I know everyone is probably watching the pregame, but if not, this In His Own Words on 103.3 is pretty awesome. He's talking about his career at Tulsa, not getting drafted, and how he made the Cowboys. Some of this stuff I've never heard, such as that when he first went in with the rookies, he realized his hands weren't physically strong enough to catch passes from NFL QBs. He'd always caught the ball well, but simply needed more strength. So he went back to Tulsa and started lifting like crazy (he'd never lifted before) and by the next minicamp, his entire game had improved a ton.
Talking now about surviving cuts and working out with Roger. Says Roger really liked his intelligence and work ethic, and personally asked Gil Brandt to forward Drew some money so he wouldn't be so tired from the second job he was having to work, loading trucks. And he got a check for $500.
Anyway, listen in, it's surprisingly good stuff.
