Filed under: Cowboys , NFC East Adam Jones, fresh from where ever it is you go to legally drop your nickname, is thriving with the Cowboys to the surprise of a lot of people outside Dallas, but, apparently, not to members of the organization . "He's very serious. I think he understands that this is a big step for him this year," secondary coach Dave Campo said. "He's hungry. He wants to do good. He wants to play good." I'll admit to being very skeptical when Jones went on tour to explain that he understands his situation, and will walk the straight and narrow if given the opportunity to again play in the NFL. And I'm still skeptical, but I'm coming around. But, hey, he's off to a better start than Javon Walker . And it's not just the above-the-neck stuff, Jones is also impressing people with his on-field performance . "Kind of what we thought. He works hard," coach Wade Phillips said. "I thought he was a competitor, but he is an extraordinary competitor. He really likes to mix it up out there and make every play." So the early results are that owner Jerry Jones took another gamble on a player of questionable character, and it could again work out nicely, thank you very much. The Cowboys are passively looking for a proven No. 2 wideout -- maybe Walker can work a trade from Oakland to Dallas. It'll be the quickest way to revive his career, I think.
