"Played sparingly as a senior, but tested off the charts at his pro day."

Typical Cowboys cleverness. Not good enough to start in college but NFL caliber. The Danny McCray syndrome.

Things are looking up for E.J. Speed.

The former Tarleton State University linebacker is eyeing a chance to go to the NFL, according to his agent Corey Williams.

Speed graduated from Tarleton in December with a degree in kinesiology.

During his final season with the Tarleton Texans, Speed was arrested and charged with two counts of organized criminal activity by the Deer Park Police Department, but a grand jury no-billed the charges and the case has been dismissed.

Now Speed is focusing on his future.

Williams said Speed has attended two “Pro Days,” the most recent at Aledo High School on March 20.

″(Speed) immediately caught the eye of the Dallas Cowboys scout and he has been invited to a local prospect day on Friday,” Williams said.

I imagine this would anger some people who think they can just sign some used up vet or get an UDFA to be Elliott's backup.

Drew Sample is the template for what the Cowboys traditionally have like at TE.


Which is yikes...

I can tolerate it if he is a very late selection. He can block and our TEs do need to block better. Witten can sit out a year and still come back and be better than anyone else.
