I'm fine with us passing on Honey Badger. Playmaker but he can't stay away from the marijuana.

I actually emailed the Cowboys to alert them to this problem. As a result, they took him off their board

Five Cowboys to watch
August, 17, 2013
By Calvin Watkins | ESPNDallas.com

We look at five players to watch.

1. David Arkin. He's going to start at left guard with Ronald Leary possibly out for the rest of the preseason recovering from knee surgery. Arkin battled Kevin Kowalski for playing time at the right guard spot when Mackenzy Bernadeau was down with an injury. Arkin is going to get a chance to show the coaches he can be a productive player and this is important because the Cowboys like to run off the left side where left tackle Tyron Smith resides.

2. George Selive. After a productive outing in the first preseason game where he picked up two sacks and six tackles, he slowed down in the second game with just two tackles when inserted into a starting role at defensive end. Selvie will start against the Cardinals again and while he's on the roster bubble, a solid game should help his chances to remain.

3. B.W. Webb. He wants to forget about what happened in the second preseason game at Oakland where he muffed a punt, missed a tackle and had a few mental errors. In practices after the Raiders game, Webb handled punts with no issues and is doing a better job in pass coverage with the third-and-second teams. Webb should make the roster and its uncertain if the Cowboys want to release him then and maybe get him through waivers and place him on the practice squad.

4. Terrance Williams. The third-round pick from Baylor missed the first two preseason games because of his recovery from a concussion. He makes his debut here as the No. 3 receiver. Williams has look good in practices and he's developing a command of the playbook and is turning to a pretty good threat in the deep passing game.

5. Gavin Escobar. It's been a tough two weeks for the rookie tight end. Escobar is still behind James Hanna on the depth chart and continues to struggle as a blocker. It's mainly because of his weight, 249, and he's lost four pounds since training camp started. He's a good receiver, but the Cowboys need their tight ends to block if they're going to increase the number of attempts in the run game.

Didnt realize Sedrick Ellis retired, knew they had signed him. he was one guy i was kinda hoping we'd take a look at.

Anderson might be of interest here, could potentially play LDE some and move inside to DT. Isnt much of a pass rusher, but can play the run ok.

The Chicago Bears released veteran defensive end Jamaal Anderson on Saturday, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

The team signed him in late July to fill a roster void created when Sedrick Ellis retired.

The eighth overall pick of the 2007 NFL draft by Atlanta, Anderson was selected by the Falcons when Bears general manager Phil Emery served with the club as its director of college scouting. Anderson started 48 of 77 career games played with the Falcons (2007-10), Colts (2011) and Bengals (2012), with whom he played just two contests before missing the rest of the season because of a quadriceps injury.

Anderson has 132 career tackles, 7½ sacks (with just 4½ coming over four years with the Falcons), 10 pass breakups, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.

Excited to see Terrence Williams today

Yeah, it will be nice to see if he can be the deep threat we miss from the non-starters.

Thing is, he probably will be invisible thanks to our OL.
