Inside Cowboys Training Camp: Great Insight

A lot of chatter today, with Mike McCarthy, backup quarterback Andy Dalton explaining his decision to remain home to play for the Cowboys, and the man for all positions, Tyrone Crawford willing to do whatever the Cowboys ask.

A rainy Tuesday benefits the newly resodded practice field while Brad and Mickey can't avoid talking some ET, listening to Zeke's scouting report of this team and then provide a few players flying under the radar as training camp comes to a close.

There was good reason why the Cowboys went undercover during Sunday's Cowboys Night at AT&T Stadium, practicing with numberless and nameless jerseys, so Brad and Mickey explain Mike McCarthy's thinking, along with Zack Martin's thoughts on training camp.

Saturday was a players day off in advance of the Cowboys Night session Sunday at AT&T Stadium, with Brad and Mickey getting you primed on what to look for, identifying some of the younger players to keep an eye on.

With Earl Thomas still a hot discussion, Brad and Mickey dive into the details to consider, along with the overall current Cowboys safety situation next to Xavier Woods. They also provide insight into the return of guard Connor Williams.

On this day of player rest, Brad and Mickey find out what's on head coach Mike McCarthy's mind, and analyze what's impressed them with the Cowboys offense and defense.

With three of the Cowboys top six offensive linemen watching practice, Brad and Mickey sift through the fallout, explain why the Cowboys have faith in their new kicker and are enamored with rookie receiver CeeDee Lamb.

This edition was heavy on defensive end talk, what with the arrivals of two of the league's free-agent premier pass rushers, 2019 Pro Bowler Everson Griffen and 2012 Pro Bowler Aldon Smith, who hasn't played in the NFL since 2015 because of suspensions.

New coach, new message, new jersey color, new player, a healthy Leighton Vander Esch and the new bubble according to DeMarcus Lawrence make for an eclectic show from Brad Sham and Mickey Spagnola.

This has been a long time coming, but the Cowboys finally – finally – had their first practice of training camp for 2020, with Brad and Mickey giving a glimpse and analysis of what took place during Mike McCarthy's first official practice as the Cowboys head coach.

For the first time in franchise history the Cowboys will conduct their entire training camp at their home facility, The Star, and with so much changing during this coronavirus pandemic, flexibility will be the key word, not only for camp operation but also for player positions.

With the Cowboys ready to ramp up this COVID-19 affected training camp, Brad Sham and Mickey Spagnola are starting their annual daily updates, socially distanced of course, including what this rookie thinks is most important.
