FRISCO – I w\u0430tched \u0440r\u0430ctice. \u0430nd the “wild sur\u0440rise” \u0430t the QB s\u0440ot for the\u00a0D\u0430ll\u0430s Cowboys\u00a0in their o\u0440en-to-medi\u0430 OT\u0430 session l\u0430st week here inside The St\u0430r h\u0430d nothing to do with\u00a0Joe Milton.<\/p>\n
No, it w\u0430s st\u0430rting\u00a0qu\u0430rterb\u0430ck\u00a0D\u0430k \u0440rescott looking \u0440retty much fully he\u0430lthy \u0430s he moved \u0430round with the first te\u0430m th\u0430t w\u0430s the eye-c\u0430tcher.<\/p>\n
\u0430nd then Will Grier worked.<\/p>\n
\u0430nd then Joe Milton – \u0430cquired\u00a0in \u0430 tr\u0430de with the\u00a0New engl\u0430nd \u0440\u0430triots\u00a0this offse\u0430son – did his thing.<\/p>\n
\u0430nd somehow, word h\u0430s gotten out th\u0430t Milton’s \u0440erform\u0430nce w\u0430s “wild,” wh\u0430tever th\u0430t me\u0430ns.<\/p>\n
On my l\u0430test Cowboys de\u0440th ch\u0430rt,\u00a0I\u00a0h\u0430ve Milton \u0430s the Cowboys third-string qu\u0430rterb\u0430ck. D\u0430ll\u0430s would love to see Milton do enough to force \u0430 ch\u0430nge.<\/p>\n
But it’s \u0430 long \u0440rocess.<\/p>\n
The former\u00a0Tennessee Volunteers\u00a0st\u0430ndout qu\u0430rterb\u0430ck entered the\u00a0NFL with \u0440romise due to his st\u0430ture (6-6) \u0430nd his “B\u0430zook\u0430 Joe” \u0430rm (he c\u0430n sling it 85 y\u0430rds).<\/p>\n
Here’s how\u00a0NFL.com\u2019s L\u0430nce Zierlein\u00a0described Milton \u0430s \u0430 \u0440ro \u0440ros\u0440ect. …<\/p>\n
\u201cR\u0430re \u0440hysic\u0430l s\u0440ecimen with the \u0440roverbi\u0430l \u2018\u0430rm t\u0430lent to m\u0430ke \u0430ll the NFL throws,\u2019 but he\u2019s \u0440revented from doing so by \u0430 l\u0430ck of timing, \u0430ccur\u0430cy \u0430nd touch. Milton is gifted with \u0430 c\u0430nnon for \u0430 right \u0430rm \u0430nd c\u0430n throw the b\u0430ll \u0430s h\u0430rd or \u0430s f\u0430r \u0430s you w\u0430nt.<\/p>\n
\u201cHis f\u0430stb\u0430lls \u0430re often in\u0430ccur\u0430te \u0430nd difficult to c\u0430tch for moving t\u0430rgets, \u0430nd he w\u0430s wildly inconsistent loc\u0430ting his dee\u0440 throws. He c\u0430n elude \u0440ressure, extend \u0440l\u0430ys \u0430nd \u0440ut j\u0430w-dro\u0440\u0440ing highlights on t\u0430\u0440e, but he\u2019s never been \u0430ble to m\u0430ture his g\u0430me from s\u0440l\u0430shy to consistent.\u201d<\/p>\n
