I'm looking forward to seeing what Valladay can do. Sounds like he's added some muscle and hopefully he can add even more. Up to 196 from his playing weight of 185. Expecting big things from him

So, the Casper star not covering spring practices or what? Foster used to cover the cowboys really well

? They have plenty of coverage. Take a look. Don't know how it compares to Foster's coverage but seems to be about the same.

Maybe I’m just not seeing them on twitter or something. I did find some articles. I don’t even know who the beat writer is now. Maybe he doesn’t hashtag #gowyo or something lol

Immediately eligible. 6 feet, 218 pounds, ran for 4 TDS and 5.3 YPC at Louisville. This takes a ton of pressure of Valladay and I think they will be a good 1-2 punch.

Really glad to have a back with experience. Hope he can stay healthy, as that appears to have been part of why he didn't get a larger workload in the past.

Somebody will need to spell Valladay after those 40-50 yard sprints he's going to make all season. A veteran will do great in that role. :D

I didn't know this but he is the son of former NFL receiver Jimmy Smith! I owe his dad a debt of gratitude for past fantasy football success.

What I really like is that he has got praise for his pass blocking abilities. That's a part of the RB game that I was worried about with such a young roster. Sounds like a great get and excited to see him in a Cowboys uniform!

On the same Trey Smith theme...can we get Jimmy Smith and Raghib Ismail Sr. to come informally work with our receiver and kick returner group?
