Star of the Day: Another Big Day For Gregory

[waving monkey]

A new feature on DallasCowboys.com this training camp is to hand out some Cowboys-themed “gold stars” after each padded practice here in Oxnard. Sunday had a wide range of players on both sides of the ball and even a coach made an appearance on the list.

David Helman: I never would’ve expected to be writing about Randy Gregory so soon, but here we are. The long-discussed, seldom-seen pass rusher mixed into practice today — and he looked pretty damn good. Gregory probably only got about five total reps working with the defense, and he was held out of pass rush drills. But he looked completely comfortable out there. In the final period of the day, he executed an absolutely beautiful twist stunt and had a free run at Dak Prescott. Had it been a real game, he might’ve notched a sack. Not a bad start at all.

[America's Cowboy]

I don't give credence to Dak-bashing David Helman.

 

[Stash]

Special talent. Top 5 talent.

Just like Jaylon Smith.

Hopefully, both players finally get the chance to show it this year. And the Cowboys and us fans get the chance to see it and enjoy it.

Most of us will enjoy it if it happens.

Wouldn't that be great? Of course, the downside is that it would encourage Jerry to continue taking substantial risks with premium picks. Then again, dude's a gambler and is likely to continuing doing that anyway so might as well enjoy the payoff given that the costs are sunk.

 

[CATCH17]

If we can just get David Irving to pull his head out and get one of our plethora of Right Ends to produce our D Line could end up being pretty filthy.

I'd hope not.

A good sign have been the second round picks the past two years in Awuzie and Williams. Both were safe picks with no risks. That gives me confidence that that old Wildcatter is done rolling the dice.

I think we've got two - possibly three - candidates for that right end position in Gregory and Armstrong, and possibly Tapper. And I've been encouraged to see that Armstrong and recently Gregory have actually gotten some time there with the 1's.

This is the exact reason why you can't any of these glowing training camp reports very seriously...only got about five total reps. please!!

Im counting on Taco being a pretty good player for us this year too.

They are keeping him on the right aren't they?

Mixed reports from what I've seen. I think he played mostly left side against San Fran as best I can remember.

The fact that Gregory is on the field warrants attention. Embrace the optimism.

I'd chalk that up to an overly cautious approach from Garrett and the team more than anything else.

David doesnt bash Dak whatsoever.

Helman is a good follow for those on twitter.

Enough with the kid gloves with Gregory.

Throw his butt out there like everybody else and see if he can hold up and play.

I hate the way they bubble wrap this guy like he's fine china. This pass rush will be fine with or without him.

He has 1 sack in 14 games played, and they act like he's the second coming of Deacon Jones.

Its good to see young Bernie Mac doing good in camp.

I think may have him mistaken for someone else.

And if these great gambles do both pay off with top shelf talent, who gets the credit...Jason Garrett?

I think they should break one of his legs throw him out there and really see what his made of.
stop all this pansy camp.

Imagine this...a very strong rotational defensive end group; a top of the league set of linebackers; and a very strong secondary...defense?
