    Finally they have only the talented players left in this show. Pesonally i dont think Motens in the same league as the others but it dosn't matter cause its eaither Hawkins or Holley. Hawkins is better then Holley simply for the fact he tries harder and has the better attitude but size is gonna be a factor so it could go either way.

    Theres no question that the two it comes down to is Holley and Hawkins. The DBs was never to the level of the WRs. Hawkins has more talent and goes hard, but Holley has the better body and can make plays that Hawkins can't. Now I don't know if Jerry Jones is really taking this thing serious or not . . . but if he is remember that is needs to replace a big WR and already has players like Hawkins that are check downs from the deep routes . . . Big Plus . . . Holley would be a better blockers on the SS and LB on outsides runs with crack backs!!

    I still think that Holley is the most NFL ready of the players left on the show, but you've gotta give it up to Hawkins! The smallest guy on the field and he was pushing people all over the sack the qb drill. He is very impressive. The biggest drawback for him is his size. The head to head sack drill was a perfect example. At the start of the drill, his quickness put him ahead of Holley. When he got tired, he wasn't big enough to get by the blockers. I still think he has a lot of heart!

How he made it this far is still a big question lol and i can only imagine what irivn was thinking we lost Jones to this....

    Oh BABY! That was one hell of an episode! I loved it! Best one so far. Holley is a beast! Hawkins has what Gamble lacked and that was speed. I think Hawkins gets a spot because of his intensity but Holley is a close second. We will definitely see! I am loving every minute of this show!

    How that fool Moten say that 'It's all for you son!" then show up late for practice. I would have tossed his A$$ out of the building. The chance of a lifetime and you show up late? No excuse.

    To me the show is now getting rid of not just the weak physically (Mo Washington, Luke Swan, Donte Gamble), but the mentally weak (Montrell Jones, Speedy Gonzalez, and soon to be gone Eddie Moten).



    You don't make it to the pros if you are physically AND/OR emotionally weak!

    Man, I love this show. Washington should have been gone a long time ago. I think Andrew Hawkins is the obvious choice. I see comments about he doesn't have the size to be effective. I disagree. He may be smaller than the rest, but he doesn't let that stop him. He's had the most consistent performance throughout the show, he never gives up and doesn't complain. You know what they say...dynamite comes in small packages.

    Moses is weak. Track athletes arnt always football palyers. He shows hart so dose everyother bad player or out of shape player. He layed on the field like a pee wee er who just got layed out. He dosnt earn my respect as a worthy player for the cowboys.

    It was Moses' time to go. He showed his true colors with the beat the blocker drill. I'm rooting for Hawkins, but Holley is proving himself.

    Rumor has it that Holley makes it, but He was a free agent that signed with the Bengals in 07. I think Hawkins deserves it, he has the heart of a true football player, that knows he has all the odds stacked against him but still give his all. He is fun to watch and can take a hit.

    Hawkins has the best shot, but I can see Holley and Smith winning for sure. With Moten, I have been very disappointed in and I hope he sees how he messed up when he doesn't get the shot. I am not a big fan of the Cowboys, but they did a good job with the show in getting Cowboy coaches and Cowboy players to help

    Holley is now the man. Smith was my fav, but I am from TN so Jones and Smith were obvious favs. I am now going to back Holley and follow his career and hope he is "the man" that coach Joe, Bates and Irvin think he is!

    I'm speechless just saw holley win, tells me I'm smarter than they are? From 1st episode you could see hawkins had the explosion off the line. It was evident from day one the d.b's were terrible, thats not exaggerating, terrible. I was a d.b, I could cover holley,easy, hawkins no way. You won super bowls because of J.J he can see lump of coal that's close to a diamond, hawkin''s has those qualities, holley will fail badly, no shot to beat a real nfl d.b. you need to hire me as a scout. I'll get you some players. In dallas training camp when you line up holley you'll get nothing, won't get open, go get hawkins run same exact play's he'll make em sick. he'll shake em and bake em! how can you not see this? how the hell, its mind blowing, I'm speechless.
