Randy Gregory making immediate progress
http://network.yardbarker.com/nfl/a...9000757?linksrc=fscom_team_nfl_dallas_cowboys
Dallas Cowboys defensive end and former Nebraska Cornhusker Randy Gregory has been exceeding expectations early on in his career. After falling out of the first-round of the draft, Gregory entered Cowboys minicamp with a chip on his shoulder.
So far, so good on the practice field.
There were also some concerns about Gregory’s slim frame, but Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is not concerned about where Gregory is at and he is impressed with the player’s willingness to learn from coaches.
“It’s easy to see his talent, very easy to see,” Jones said, via the Star-Telegram. “His willingness to take coaching from his teammates, as well as the coaches themselves – all of those things, you like. Those are intangibles.
“I’m pleased that he’s gained the weight he’s gained. I’m going to round this off, but I’d say he’s up 15 pounds. And he doesn’t labor in any way with that 15 pounds. He can lose it — I’m envious — he can lose it as fast as anybody that you can imagine, but he can also put it on. His diet – he’s doing some good stuff. He’s been very responsible.”
With that kind of early praise, Gregory is giving the Cowboys exactly what they were hoping for when they selected him with the 60th overall pick.
Hopefully Gregory can continue to impress and improve when it matters the most.
