'Boys' Henson, Jones Looking Impressive
God, just when I thought the Cowboys were down for the count, it looks like they might have gotten new life in QB Henson and RB Jones.
Drew Henson was slated as the 1st overall draft pick before opting to go into baseball. He was 6/6 last week and looks good today. Julius Jones was the Cowboys top draft pick last year and is looking like a future star. He's fast, agile, and has good vision. It's early in the game, but it looks like us 'Skins fans may have reason to be nervous with these new, young additions to the Cowboys. |

Henson looks good? I can't say I agree. Jones does look good and that is bad for us

Henson looked good on the first drive and then he looked like crap. He completed only 25% of his passes for 31 yards and an INT. Pfffew, false alarm.

yup, jackson would be a lot more worrisome than jones... he had a good game today, but jackson will be the better back over the haul.

Jones has better speed and elusiveness than Jackson...Jackson will never put up the numbers Jones does because Martz is an idiot and Faulk is still ahead of him I still like the fact we selected Jones and got a 1st rounder from Buffalo as opposed to giving up Baliey, a 2nd round draft pick, 8 years 50 plus mil and a 10+ mil signing bonus to acquire Portis And forget about Brunnel's 7 yr, 43 mil contract with an 8.6 mil SB AND the 3rd round pick given up.. But thats just me

Bailey was gone regardless so we recieved a top flight back who is 23 years old, irregardless how you aquire a back if he's a star you will have to pay him. #2 was more than I wanted to give up but who's to say that pick would have amounted to anything we more than made up for it with the rest of our draft, 1 soon to be big time TE in Cooley and 2 future starting offensive linemen. |

What did Henson do in college? Very little. I believe Desmond Howard went to Michigan and was acclaimed as a great receiver. I bet their QBs follow the same trends.

He didn't have a full collage football season as i belive but he looked lost after the first drive heh like someone who hasn't played alot of football at the top level. I don't know if he can learn the football insticincts he is sadly lacking. He has skills no doubt but the overall talent and drive I don't think so.
