Twitter: Will McClay On The Ticket

[CATCH17]

Makes plays? As in "what is that 1 in a million talk"? LOL

Over the 3 years he has started he has made a very FEW number of great plays. No more then any other scrub would make by simply being on the field for that long.

But the amount of whiffed tackles and horrid plays far and away drowns out any handful of plays over 3 or 4 years.

Yeah.. We've been over this and I just don't see Heath as the bumbling fool in the secondary that you do.

Replace him fine. I'm all for it. Just don't force it.

 

[panchucko]

What????? We like what we have????? When did this start?

I guess Garrett is wearing off on him

Force what? What does that mean?

He is bad. The eye test bares that out, the statistics bare that out. And he's NOT getting better.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

2 INTs a season really only shows up when your defense is not grabbing many picks.

In Chicago, Marinelli overvalued Chris Conte. Same kind of player. Loved him. Then eventually they paid for that devotion after Rodgers burned him to go to the Super Bowl.

That’s why I call him Rod Mari-smelly. I also call him that because I have the sense of humor of a five-year-old.

I mean don't overspend or overdraft for someone because Jeff Heath is on the team because it's not a big deal if he has to play. He's fine.

 

[erod]

Can Eric Berry stay on the field for more than 10 minutes?

 

[KingintheNorth]

heath is very undervalued by the fans unfortunatly

Nope, hopelessly overrated by this fan base.

I think it's because the average Cowboys fan is a 5'11" white guy who thinks he could have been an NFL safety if things would have just gone a little differently.

Heath is abysmal.

he is a starting caliber nfl safety, hes average and not any where near abysmal espically when used to compliment his skilll set. Also, i don't think the fan base over rates him, i think its the opposite....and by the way, race baiting on here isnt allowed so you should watch what you put into your posts, no reason to bring that up.

Mcclay's good at picking players. Richard is good at coaching them. Camp just started. D-backs play as a unit.

LOL...…….don't replace the worst starter on our team because he sucks?

Great advice.

Lawd, you're so dumb. And you act like you own a business...

 

[Praxit]

...everything was good until Heath came up. I like the guy, but we need someone who is going to take the ball away.

 

[darthseinfeld]

The second one implies third team. As in, "unless there are injuries, Iloka currently will not make the team."

Unless he plays special team, he wont make the team as a reserve. They will go with Frazier and Wilson. Heath likely would if Iloka becomes the starter.

I think the idea is for there to be a time share at SS with Lloka playing run downs and Heath passing downs. Even with that said, if he gets challeneged by the younger Frazier or Wilson he might be gone

 

[starfan1]

As has been noted, Jeff Heath is the new Golden Cock.

Who was the original was that Matt Johnson I forgot?

 

[Corso]

Who was the original was that Matt Johnson I forgot?

That moniker was placed by Marinelli upon Nick Hayden.

 

[starfan1]

That moniker was placed by Marinelli upon Nick Hayden.

That’s right ! Forgot

 

[Corso]

That’s right ! Forgot

No worries, it was preferably forgettable.

Heath is abysmal.

Except Heath is over 6-1 and runs a 4.48 forty.

Very few average fans could come close to his performance measurable(s).

Fans might have been able to pretend they could have been Bill Bates, but not Heath.

Jeff Heath
Height: 6-1
Weight: 209
40 Yrd Dash: 4.48
20 Yrd Dash: 2.70
10 Yrd Dash: 1.59
225 Lb. Bench Reps: 22
Vertical Jump: 37
Broad Jump: 10’6”
20 Yrd Shuttle: 4.36
3-Cone Drill: 6.88


That 3-cone is better than many NFL CBs:
CB Kyle Fuller 6.90
CB A. J. Bouye 7.06

@risenstar would blow those numbers out of the water.
It's a good thing he chose to stay away from that NFL. It just wouldn't have been fair.

I assume Iloka will be the top reserve. And that's if Heath doesn't play himself out of the starting role, which I think he'll keep until he has a bad game tackling, which shouldn't take too long.

When McClay or the Cowboys make this statement about feeling "good" about current players, does anyone in the media cover the team ask them to explain why they feel good about them, such as how do you explain feeling good about Heath when he was subpar against the run last year?

The second one implies third team. As in, "unless there are injuries, Iloka currently will not make the team."

They will carry 4 or 5 Safeties.

HT.........WT..........Player
