UDFA WR rookie signee:

Jalen Guyton, 6'1", 202 lbs, 40 time: 4.35

The kid looks pretty good. Runs sharp cuts/routes, has good hands, speed to stretch the field and/or outrun his defender.

"Guyton had a dynamic two seasons with the Mean Green before declaring early and forgoing his senior season wt North Texas. In 2017, he had 49 receptions for 775 yards and nine touchdowns, while in 2018 Guyton had 54 receptions for 805 yards and six touchdowns."

Might be a sleeper WR. Interesting to see what he does in camp.

Jalen Guyton could be a sneaky good pickup for the Dallas Cowboys

What could the Allen native bring to America’s Team?

Naturally, all of the attention and focus is on the players that the Dallas Cowboysselected in the NFL Draft. Trysten Hill has the chance to provide much needed depth in the interior of the Cowboys defensive line, Connor McGovern offers another body along the offensive line, and Tony Pollard is an electrifying talent that can be used in multiple ways.

But, it appears as if Dallas also did a solid job signing undrafted free agents once the draft concluded.

-Dane Brugler wrote on Guyton in ‘The Beast’, noting that he has top-end speed that allows him to get behind the defense.

SUMMARY: A three-star recruit out of high school, Jalen Guyton (guy-tin) helped lead Allen to 43 straight victories and three consecutive state titles (teammates with Kyler Murray). He signed with Notre Dame, but was suspended during his redshirt year and left the program. After one season at the JUCO level, he transferred to North Texas. Lining up as the “Z” receiver, he posted consistent production the last two seasons, although more was expected out of him in 2018. Guyton is able to alter route speeds with ease, using his top-end speed to streak behind the defense. However, his route construction and timing lack polish with questionable coverage awareness. He tracks the ball well downfield with the coordinated skill to make plays over defensive backs, but often relies on his body to finish catches. Overall, Guyton is currently a better athlete than wide receiver, but his play speed and separation quickness are worth developing at the back end of a roster.

The Dallas Cowboys brought in Guyton for a pre-draft workout, and they must have seen enough to take a flier on the Allen native. It is obviously an up-hill battle for someone that went undrafted to make a 53-man roster, but Guyton is an athletic, speedy receiver with a championship pedigree in the state of the Texas.

If you are looking for a sleeper to push for a roster, Jalen Guyton could be it.
