Ogletree Leads Way In Third Receiver Race

[Risen Star]

"It's our time," Ogletree said. "This team is really excited to bounce back after last year and I know I want to be a big part of it. I'm going to work my butt off to do that," Ogletree said.

"He can run, he's quick, and he's smart," Robinson said. "He understands the position. He's got tools. He's got to use those and develop consistency and accountability to where he can be counted on by his teammates and his coaches."

That would be great if he can take that spot, and if Harris can show something we got more depth the most think

Wow. That's Ogletree in a nutshell. Good summation by the new receivers coach.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Go KO. We've been waiting for him to develop. Hopefully it all comes to fruition this season.

Still willing to take a shot on Steve Smith despite his surgery. Even if we end up not being able to use him this year.

The push seems to be with guys we are familiar with.

Not saying I agree with that.

Are you kidding? I'd be more than willing to take a shot on him. He would come in next season and immediately impact the offense. Dez and Miles would get a lot of 1 on 1 coverage.

 

[Hoofbite]

He should be.

Just about the only guy behind the top 2 with any experience to speak of.

I was thinking the same thing, who else do we really have.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

Like alll three.

Steve Smith for the long run, but rightnow Ogletreee moving ahead of the Rookie is a luxery.

Draft pick DeWayne Harris has alot of talant and potential if it translates to the next level.

The NFL is not about size at WR anymore.

I have no issue with Steve Smith at all. Dude is a 3rd Down making MACHINE. I'd be willing to roll the dice on the knee.

It's obvious to me at this point he will not be ready for the start of the season.

Better to see what we have now and if necessary make the move at the end of preseason.

Do your thing K.O. Keep practicing hard.

I hope he can turn into a quality 3rd WR and step in when called upon if Dez or Miles gets hurt. He has the tools the question is can he put it together and if all the reports are true it seems he finally gets "it"

I like Kevin Ogletree.

They asked Miles which WR was standing out and he said Kevin Ogletree. He said he's fast and gets off of the press very well. I know they are friends outside of football too so I know he's pulling for him.

 

[CowboyStar88]

he has the tools to be a good maybe another MILES? who Knows how long did it take for Miles to get it? I can't recall what year we picked up miles and how old he was?

I like Smith - but I worry that we both like guys who have killed us in the past despite them being past their sell by dates.

Austin started coming on in his third year, but he showed a great work ethic getting there. Ogletree doesn't seem to have that.

Well I guess all we can do is hope he finally gets "it". He is saying all the right things, and seems to be working hard in camp so let's hope he finally gets it and realizes it takes more then just talent to become a solid football player. I am intrigued by what Miles said about him.

There is a new sheriff in town. Jason Garrett

Furthermore, Garrett has one of the very best WR coaches in the NFL.

I look for Kevin Ogletree, who is having a great camp, to flat out get it done this year. I think he should be a very good # 3 WR.

The new WR coach has to like what he sees in Ogletree.
