If Tom Cable wanted to find Darrius Heyward-Bey this offseason, he went to the weight room.

There, he'd find the second-year wide receiver working out, often with 30-pound dumbbells.

"I put on about 10 pounds of muscle," Heyward-Bey said. "I played last year at about 206. I'm about 215 right now."

But what about the burst that made him a controversial No. 7 pick in the 2009 NFL draft?

"I can still run," Heyward-Bey said.

Running, however, isn't the skill which has Heyward-Bey under heightened scrutiny in his second season. And while Heyward-Bey appeared to be a bit more polished in catching passes and turning upfield, there were still too many dropped passes for anyone's liking.

"Just working on those fundamentals all offseason," Heyward-Bey said.
