Cowboys would like Josh Price-Brent to slim down

The Dallas Cowboys kick off training camp on Saturday and they will be looking to get defensive tackle Josh Price-Brent going quickly.

The challenge is getting the Illinois product, who was selected in the seventh round of the supplemental draft last week, up to speed on the system as fast as possible. The Cowboys also would like Price-Brent to drop weight and get down close to 300 pounds, according to a league source. He checked in at nearly 6-2 and 321 pounds at his pro day in Champaign, Ill., earlier this month.

Getting Price-Brent acclimated to the defense quickly shouldn’t be too difficult. Like scouts say, a closer a player is on defense to the ball, the easier it is for him to be prepared. Tackle is the easiest position for defensive players to come in and play immediately.

Price-Brent and BYU running back Harvey Unga were the only two players chosen in the supplemental draft. Although both were seventh-round picks, they’re expected to make the 53-man rosters of their respective teams. Unga was selected by the Chicago Bears. That’s because it would be too risky to try to move one of these players through waivers to the practice squad because the consensus is both would have mid-round grades on them in the regular April draft. That makes both of them value picks that the Cowboys and Bears will be willing to work to develop.

Sterling sliver jewelry, particularly bracelets, is a staple of fashionable women everywhere. This type of pandora beads is durable yet so beautiful. The versatility is outstanding; it goes with every outfit whether with jeans or with a designer gown. For instance, movie star Sandra Bullock wore a silver cuff bracelet to the 2009 MTV Movie Awards in May 2009. A silver cuff bracelet makes an audacious statement, yet it is lightweight and is flexible so that it can fit a variety of wrist sizes. Another popular type of bracelets is the silver charm bracelet. There are many shapes and designs for the charms that are attached to the bracelet.

I wish him only the best. Get well, young man.
This stuff happens, didn't cause Terrell Davis to retire, as that actually was the knee injury he sustained while tackling a Jet on an INT - that being said he was always and the donkeys cognizant of this issue with Daivs as well...migraines and nuerological problems are real for damn sure and don't make an NFL players life any easier - and seriously "karma" - give it a rest already - Favre's not the devil, hasn't been sighted hanging with Lucifer or sacrificying any virgins - well lately anyway - that was the "before PG Favre" that's marketed for mass consumption...
