    I might have to back Nick Perry even more this year. Its going to be a challenge.
    Datone Jones? I think if you want it bad enough he can break out this year. The man quietly had some jaw dropping plays last year. Look at this one 2nd Q of our first Lions game: https://vine.co/v/O7vxIi3FjIJ

    That's Larry Warford our boy has on skates. Collapses him into the center and takes them both out. Incredible play.

    There we go. Its official.

    Perry and Jones get midseason contract extensions this year.

    EDIT: Perry, midseason. Jones gets his option picked up in the offseason.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Both have had their moments showing above average ability, yet each has been invisible for long periods. I don't care that they aren't All-Pro, I just want them to show up consistently.

    I am adopting both of these guys as my especial hoped-for successes this year. I'd like to see Jones develop into a very real, consistent, pass rush threat (and not a rag doll in the run game), and Perry to be even stauncher against the run and develop a second pass rush move so he can collect a few sacks. If he can occasionally provide decent coverage against a TE that would be cool, too.

    The pass was completed. He didn't disengage soon enough!
