Quote:People are already writing him off before his second season has even begun. He would need to be out all of this season and next season just to be on the same career path as Jimmy Smith.

 

Relax. It just a hamstring injury for a guy at the beginning of his career. It's not the end of the road for him.

Thank you for having some knowledge of history when you make posts. It's like some of the people hear have no idea that players such as Jimmy started his career with a horrible injury history which lead to his release from the Cowboys.


Living with in Texas I had a conversation with an older gentleman who is a Cowboys fan. He always tells me "man if not we would have held on to Smith back in the day when we had Irvin. We might have squeezed out one more championship." This team is not so far along to not wait to see if a young guy can recover from an injury. Patience is required.


A newer example of this would be Colvin. From ACL rehab as a rookie to starting CB.

 

No way can you compare him to Jimmy Smith (at this point).  He can't stay on the field and when he is out there, hasn't produced much to speak of.

 

 

Quote:Hes on the same path as CS3 and Mike Sims-Walker. Can't blame fans for being frustrated when all their playmakers are injured over and over again.

 

Pretty much the road that it looks like he's going down.  I don't like it, and I hope that I'm wrong, but it's looking like this might be the first bust by Caldwell.
