Excited to see more of him. No camp certainly hurt plus coming off an injury
A full off season and training camp should really help him
Waletzko is another guy I’m curious to see what he can do with a full off season and healthy camp. He needed to grow physicality and refine his technique. If he has he could be really interesting for the future

If Damone Clark is able to perform with the impressive talent he displayed as a collegiate LB, his future seems very promising. It's to his credit that he managed to do as well as he did while still recovering from the serious shoulder surgery that he had beforehand. He'll be a year removed from that situation, which should only serve to improve his chances of sticking around as a potential starter for the Cowboys. He's surely worth watching. If he's able to improve his pass coverage skills, it would seem his future might well be assured. I'm sure expectations for him are quite high.

Shoulder? Just Fyi, It was his neck and a herniated disc that required surgery he was recovering from. I hope he can reach his true potential

That's good to know. Let's hope lives up to the talent level that his recovery serves himself and the team.

He's already showed signs it's happening. If he's able to play at the level that he did before, we're in luck.

Here's hoping the extra time off that he's had since last season serves that precise purpose. I'm excited.

A relevant upgrade to the linebacker group that appears to be falling into the year 2-3 year window, I would gamble on him and not at the top of this year's draft...me.

If the Cowboys could only figure out the Friday portion of the draft they’d be in much better shape.

Once Clark improves in coverage he will be a complete LB. I think I read somewhere that he did not miss a single tackle in the games he started last season. I know that's a subjective stat but it's still nice to see.
It’s telling Quinn was ok starting him all the games with lve out. He didn’t miss a tackle and played well with no camp. He could have a breakout year if all goes well throughout camp.

Good thing is Damone has enough snaps to watch himself on tape this offseason, and critique his play then add more tools to his game. No rehab, just getting after it the weight room and film room. Clark should take a leap, but I'm patient with this player. My hope is DC is the future MLB for Dallas when Micah is doing something else, somewhere else.

It's imperative for this Cowboys defense to have Damone step up and be the big playmaker he can be. Can't depend on Parsons to make all the freaking plays, especially now with offenses game planning against him.

No question but what the late picks can be a valuable resource in this team's readiness. Let's hope we'll see that in the last few rounds of the upcoming draft. Let's hope we can trust Jerry & Son to allow McClay to do what he does best without any interference. ;)

Cox has been a huge disappointment. It would be nice to see Clark develop into a quality starter.
