Thanks! But the real genius here is Dwight Jones. With one single interview, he has become the most interesting Texan ever. That kind of talent is hard to find in the UDFA pile.

In all seriousness though, I don't think he's crazy. Maybe he's a bit enthusiastic. I think he's right about him having a chance to become a great player like AJ is. I'm rooting for him because it would mean the Texans got the next Arian Foster.

Might be interesting to get one!

Pay Me Rick is one that comes to mind. Although his first couple of years he was a solid player and team mate.

He's definitely made a name for himself. I mean, other than Case Keenum...this Dwight Jones guy is all we're talking about. Sounds like he understands basic self-promotion and marketing techniques.

If he puts it all together, then so be it. I just think he's puffing himself up because he went undrafted and that's gotta' sting for a guy like him. Like he's talking himself up more for him than for anybody else.

I just got heartburn listening to him talk. Guy is talking like a pro bowl player when he has not even played a down of pro ball. The only thing he did was increase the amount of rookie hazing he will receive by 10 fold. Somebody is going take his keys and put dog poop in his new car, way to go Dwight!!!

Oh he's a legend alright, in his own mind. I think OTA's and training camp will be a massive wake up call for D. Jones, it'll be a ***** slap into reality. He'll find out he's not what he thought he was and just how big a step he took into the NFL. Once he comes to grips with reality I expect him to be just fine and really look forward to seeing him in preseason. I hope he makes the active roster.

If he really has talent, I'm worried that he'll turn out to be another TO rather than Andre Johnson with the way he is talking...

I would welcome either with open arms. With enough guys like Cush, Watt, Smith, Joseph, Myers, Andre and Foster, I really don't see any way our locker room can ever unravel like TO's teams did. The best thing that could have happened to TO would have been to accept that trade to the Ravens. Ray Lewis and Reed would have kept him in line.

That's why he didn't go. He was scared of them boys. I think Dwight will get straightened out here. Potential for a very good number two, and fill in number one if AJ is out (with Posey in the slot or at #2).

does anyone have a link for the interview I'm really intrigued now

[speedfreek]

The commentator said that one play was the seventh longest in UNC history? They must not fling it around very much in the ACC.

That play would have been fairly typical in any one of the games played by Texas college teams, UH, A&M, Texas, Tech, Baylor, etc.

Not impressed..

7 catches for 198 yards and two TDs in this game.
