00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: we're gonna We're gonna pick your brain here over the

23
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 1: next forty five minutes. Absolutely, But first tell us how

24
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: are things going. I mean, you're in the middle of

25
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: your busiest time of the year, really ramping up and

26
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: getting the beast taking care of which of course is

27
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: a must read for anybody around the draft whenever it

28
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: does release. But everything going well for you and this

29
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: journey again. Yeah, you know, we just got through All

30
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: Star season, Shrine Game, NFLPA uh, Senior Bowl of course.

31
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: And you know this, this whole process is all about

32
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: cross checking, right, So h by the time the season's over,

33
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: most of the the hay is in the barn. At that point,

34
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 1: all the work has been done, You've watched the tape.

35
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: Now it's the chance to cross check what you thought. Uh.

36
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: And that's what these all these events are for the

37
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: All Star Games, the Combine coming up here in a

38
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: little bit. The the official Combine invite list just got

39
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: released today, so uh, you know, I don't think there

40
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 1: are any big surprises on that, but uh, you know,

41
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: it's it's just another step in the process. So and

42
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: then after the combine obviously Pro Day's workouts and so,

43
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: you know, each each step tells us something, It helps

44
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: us out as we go through this process of trying

45
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: to figure out this draft class, who's going to be

46
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 1: a fit for which team, especially the Cowboys. Uh, it's

47
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's a lot of work, but it's also

48
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: a lot of fun. So what year is this for

49
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: you now covering the draft? Are you in the double

50
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: digits yet? And the fact that you've already gotten to

51
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: where you are is remarkable. I mean, the the path

52
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: that you have blazed for yourself has been so fun

53
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: to watch. But where does this draft class kind of

54
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,839
Speaker 1: rank for you in terms of the ones that you've

55
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: seen to this point. Yeah, you know, I just got

56
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: home from Mobile and I was counting the years. That

57
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,239
Speaker 1: was my my twelfth year going to the Senior Bowl U.

58
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: So yeah, we've been doing it as a long time.

59
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: But you know, it's it's it's hard to really ranked

60
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: draft classes. You know, I find it hard, at least

61
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: for myself, because you know, we see these guys in

62
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,679
Speaker 1: the NFL and it's kind of hard to just eliminate

63
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: that from our minds and just focus on, you know,

64
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: how we saw them as prospects. But you know, this

65
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: is a class that's really interesting because you know, I

66
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: think we've got two non quarterbacks in that top tier,

67
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: Jalen Carter from Georgia Willie Anderson from Alabama, whichever order

68
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: you want. In my opinion, it's those two. Then there's

69
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: a little bit of a drop off and then until

70
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: you get to that next tier of non quarterbacks, and

71
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: then of course the quarterbacks. Uh, it's a really unique group.

72
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: You've got, in my opinion, the top quarterback in the

73
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: class Brice Young, who is a complete outlier from a

74
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: sized perspective, and so every team's gonna look at that

75
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: a little bit differently. You've got a guy like c. J.

76
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: Stroud from Ohio State who had a good career and

77
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: then he played his best game of his life in

78
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 1: the final game and the Peach Bowl against Georgia, and

79
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: so how do you you know, way that compared to

80
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: the first twenty seven games of his Ohio State career.

81
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,919
Speaker 1: Will love Is from Kentucky did not have the senior

82
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: year many expected, but he's still a really talented player.

83
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: You've excited for what he could be at the next level.

84
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: Then Anthew Richardson from Florida. He's got the most upside

85
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: of any of these quarterbacks. So it's a really interesting

86
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: group of quarterbacks. And then the non quarterbacks. I think

87
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: that you've got again two at the top, then a

88
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: drop off and then that's where you know, we start

89
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: to see the depth throughout the late first round, second round,

90
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 1: third round, fourth round. So, Dan, you just mentioned quarterback.

91
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: What did you think about Jake Haner? Is it how

92
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: you pronounce his name? Is that correctly? Is that? I felt, yeah,

93
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: I felt like he he showed some good things um

94
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: and this uh and the Senior Bowl, and I felt

95
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: like he really rose and stocked his In my opinion,

96
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: I feel like he rose the stock a little bit

97
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 1: now he played. Yeah, he was my top quarterback at

98
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl going into the WEEKUM And so it

99
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: wasn't it wasn't the sexiest group of quarterbacks because you know,

100
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 1: we're used to having maybe a first rounder in there,

101
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: you know, justin Herbert Carson wentz uh, you know, Baker Mayfield.

102
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: These guys were all the Senior Bowl, right, We didn't

103
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: have that this year. No, Will Levis Hendon Hooker was

104
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 1: hurt um, But going in I thought, you know, Jake

105
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: Haner was the best of the group. And he doesn't

106
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: look like much. You know, he's six foot, just over

107
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 1: two hundred pounds, um. You know, the arm is good,

108
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: not great, but his competitive juices, his uh you know,

109
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: just that competitive toughness that he brings is so profound

110
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: and something that coaches are going to fall in love with. Uh.

111
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: You know, I think just I go back to last year,

112
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: it's ucla one of the best comeback performances I've ever

113
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 1: seen from a quarterback and that has stuck with me.

114
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: And you know, coming into this year he was hurt

115
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: a little bit, but when he's on the field, that

116
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: frozen State offense would go. And so I think that

117
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: I don't know that he's ever going to be a

118
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: long term starter, but I think he has a floor

119
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 1: of being a Taylor Heineke. You know, yeah, that's yeah him. Yeah. Yeah.

120
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: Not big guys not gonna necessarily wow you with the

121
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:32,479
Speaker 1: physical traits, but they're just gamers and you know, they're accurate,

122
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: they anticipate, they do quarterback things right, you know, We're

123
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: so used to a lot of these college quarterbacks. It's

124
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: projection in terms of reading the defense, in terms of

125
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: making protection calls. With a guy like Jake Haner, you

126
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: know he can do that. You can see what he's

127
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: doing out there and the way he's processing. So no, yeah,

128
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of hanter Um. You know, I

129
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 1: don't I don't know that he did enough to get

130
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: in that top one hundred conversation. But if I'm in

131
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: the fourth round and I'm looking for a quarterback to

132
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: round out my quarterback room and someone just to add

133
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: as a backup possibility, Hayner would be definitely a guy

134
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: at target. I'm glad you brought him up because han

135
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: out of Fresno State, one of the words that I

136
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: had seen was moxie. I mean, he just has this

137
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: moxie about him, this upside that might be limited, but

138
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: his toughness and his grit shine through that. And that's

139
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: kind of what it looked like from the quarterbacks as

140
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: a whole. In Mobile Max Duggan, you could throw him

141
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: into that same conversation. Maybe not the most talented guy,

142
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: but a guy that people will rally around. You saw that.

143
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: Of course, they're in the playoff run with TCU and

144
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: then Clayton Tune in there as well. But Dallas has

145
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: had a history of drafting quarterbacks that have been at

146
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl. Of course, Dak Prescott was a Senior

147
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: Bowl guy. They've they've been interested in guys that have

148
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: been in Mobile. So, out of the six guys that

149
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: you got to see actually played Dane, which one stood

150
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: out to you the most that could be a potential

151
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: fit for Dallas. Would it be a Jake Haner him?

152
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: It might be one of these other five. I mean,

153
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: I think that Hainter would certainly make sense. Clayton tune,

154
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: He's seen a lot of football, played a lot of football. Um,

155
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: and I go back to that UTSA tape earlier this

156
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: year where he put the team on his back in

157
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: the late in that game into overtime. Um, I think

158
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 1: that Clayton tune there. He's overcome a lot of adversity. Uh,

159
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: you know, just the last three years. Uh, he had

160
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: forty touchdowns this year. Nobody else in AAC history the

161
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: American Conference has ever thrown forty or more touchdowns in

162
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: a season. So, uh, you know, he's a productive guy.

163
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: There's there's a lot to like about him. Um, you know,

164
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: I think Max Duggan, he's another guy were you really

165
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: appreciate the competitive toughness. This is a guy that he's

166
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: a son of a high school football coach. Uh. You know,

167
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things where you know, check the

168
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: boxes from a mentality standpoint, from a competitive temperament standpoint. Um,

169
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: it's just there's some things on the field he needs

170
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: to needs to work on. The mechanics can get all

171
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 1: over the place. Uh. It just being a more consistent

172
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,079
Speaker 1: thrower of the football so he can be accurate from

173
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: snap to snap. So uh, I think he maybe has

174
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 1: a little bit more upside than say a hainer or

175
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: a tune. But he has a lower floor too, So

176
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's one of those trade offs

177
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: with a guy like Max Duggan. I'll give you one

178
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: more name who wasn't at the Senior Bowl. He was

179
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: actually at the shrine, Aidan O'Connell from Purdue. Okay. I

180
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 1: liked him better than several of the quarterbacks that were

181
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: at the Senior Bowl. I was surprised he didn't get

182
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:25,359
Speaker 1: an invite. Just an accurate, quick release type of quarterback.

183
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,319
Speaker 1: Not the most mobile guy. And then that's that's a

184
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,319
Speaker 1: trade off with him. You're not getting a guy that's

185
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: going to necessarily make guys miss in the pocket extend plays.

186
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: So you wish he was a little bit quicker with

187
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: his lower body. But this is a mature guy. He's

188
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: married already, he's got his degree, he's ready for pro life.

189
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: But just drop him in the locker room and I

190
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: think he'll be a backup from day one. Yeah, And

191
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,199
Speaker 1: you mentioned in regard to in regards to Bryce Young,

192
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,439
Speaker 1: you talked about his size and how that might be concerned.

193
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: I think that's also too similarly with Heiner, is that

194
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: he's a smaller guy. You know, you worry about how

195
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: is he gonna performing, know with big linemen around in

196
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 1: whatever the case may be, his escapability whatever. So I

197
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: just wanted to add on that. I feel like that

198
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: might be a reason why his you know, maybe he's

199
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: not picked super early as well, because it's his size

200
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: and that being a big factor for the position, right,

201
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 1: And you know, I think to your point, it's it's

202
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 1: not just you know, can he see over the line

203
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: or something, it's Kenny hold up durability wise, you know,

204
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 1: it's Kenny because both these guys are a little more

205
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 1: on the slight side. Uh. So, you know, it's and

206
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: we know in the NFL everything happens so much faster,

207
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: and especially with Bryce Young. Look, this is a guy

208
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 1: that he thrives by welcoming that chaos. He thrives moving

209
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: in the pocket and you know, waiting an extra half

210
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 1: second to let that route come open. But in the NFL,

211
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: even even in comparison to the SEC, things happen quicker.

212
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: And so is he going to take more hits? How

213
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: much does he how many hits does he have in

214
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: that one hundred and ninety pound body. Uh. You know,

215
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 1: it's the last twenty five years we have had three

216
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: hundred and one quarterbacks drafted. Only two were below six

217
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: foot and below two hundred pounds. We're talking about a

218
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: complete out and neither of those guys who were top

219
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: one hundred picks. So to draft a guy like Bryce

220
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: Young with that size profile top three, which I'd be

221
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: shocked if he fell out of the top three, it's

222
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: just something that we really haven't seen before. And that's

223
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: why I think, you know, in the past, you know,

224
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,559
Speaker 1: with most quarterbacks and we try to figure out where

225
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: they're headed in the draft. We look at the breadcrumbs,

226
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: you know, we look at try to connect the dots.

227
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: With a guy like Bryce Young, who is such a

228
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: complete outlier, it's really tough to do that because you know,

229
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: it's he's that much of an outlier that you know,

230
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,959
Speaker 1: a guy like Chris ballad general manager with the Colts.

231
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: He's a guy that really loves the traits, he loves size.

232
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: But how do you how do you do that with

233
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: the quarterback position, where yes, you wish you were bigger,

234
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: but if he's really good at being a quarterback, you know,

235
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: how do you how do you balance that? And it's

236
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: it's just a really fascinating test case for a guy

237
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,679
Speaker 1: that's undersized but a really really good quarterback. Yeah, what

238
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: does that say about Bryce Young and what he's brought

239
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: just based off of his talents in his skill set alone,

240
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 1: that he's even in that conversation, that status remarkable Dane,

241
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: about how little those guys have gone in the past. Now,

242
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,319
Speaker 1: before we take our first break, I want to talk

243
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: about what position outside of quarterback stood out to you

244
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: the most in Mobile Which one kind of caught your

245
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: eye and uh surprised you or maybe didn't surprise you

246
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: based off of the position groups that you saw at

247
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl. Um, I think wide receivers. Uh, you

248
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: know that's the sexy position in mobile. You know that

249
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: that the guys that really have a chance to shine. UM.

250
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,559
Speaker 1: Jaden Reid was very good at a Michigan State Uh

251
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: that that Michigan State offense just that it really struggled

252
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 1: this year without Kenneth Walker, and so I don't think

253
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: his senior tape really did him justice. But you go

254
00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 1: back to his junior tape and that's where you know,

255
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: you see why a lot of scouts gave him that

256
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,719
Speaker 1: third round grade coming into this year, and I think

257
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl kind of reminded us of that. I'd

258
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: be surprised if he's not a top one hundred pick.

259
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 1: Michael Wilson out of Stanford. He has missed more games

260
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 1: the last three years then he has played, and obviously

261
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: a red flag and something that teams have to figure out.

262
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 1: But for his size six two to fifteen, moves really well,

263
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: catches the ball through traffic. There's a lot to like

264
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: about Michael Wilson. It's just durability wise. You know, where

265
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: do you what's the price tag? Where do you draft

266
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: a guy like that? So the wide receiver stood out.

267
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: There are a few pass rushers that looked good on defense.

268
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: I thought a couple of corners really stood out. Darius

269
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 1: Rush from South Carolina. Maybe I would argue nobody made

270
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: himself more money than Darius Rush, the South Carolina corner

271
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: with the way he played at the senior boy he

272
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: was running routes, four receivers, making plays on the ball.

273
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 1: No other dB touched the football more than Darius Rush.

274
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: And he's really interesting background. He's a guy, you know,

275
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: a big fish and a small pond type of guy,

276
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: where he was always the best athlete growing up. So

277
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: he's playing quarterback, he's playing all these positions. Goes to

278
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: high school and he started as a quarterbacks as a freshman.

279
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 1: That's how good he was and how small his high

280
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 1: school was. But you know he's playing Receiver's recruited as

281
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: a receiver, goes to South Carolina, will must jump moves

282
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: in the corner. So he's really only been playing corner

283
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: for a couple of years. And you see him getting

284
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: better and better and better. And we saw that in Mobile.

285
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: He was also the fastest player at the Senior Bowl.

286
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: According to the Zebra Technologies they're on field testing, he

287
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: was over twenty one miles per hour. He was also

288
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: one of the longer players among the defensive backs thirty

289
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: two inch r thirty two and a half or thirty

290
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: two and three quarter inch arms six two, so good

291
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: sized player. He can run. As sending tape, I worry

292
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: about him as a tackler, but I know he has

293
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: the size, the speed, and the coverage ability. And when

294
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: you have that, that's gonna get you drafted somewhere on

295
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: Day two. Probably Yeah. For me, I really am trying

296
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: to focus more on an offensive line and understanding what

297
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: those guys are doing. And I felt like it was

298
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: good to see some of these offensive linemen who I

299
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: think it's an interesting class because I feel like a

300
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: lot of these guys are not long in the tooth,

301
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: but to college standards, maybe they are because you have

302
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: more juniors to me and seniors that guys that stayed,

303
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: and I feel like that's a that's valuable for the

304
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: offensive line position just because those guys get more time.

305
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: And so I was looking at John Michael Smith's really

306
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 1: he stood out to me. A Valia from TCU. I

307
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 1: felt like his even if his hand tech isn't there, well,

308
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: if his hand tech isn't there, his feet can do it.

309
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: You know. I me personally, I really was trying to

310
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: look at some of these offensive linemen and how they played.

311
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: And I mean, Cody mock Like, some of these guys

312
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: really stood out to me and made I think they

313
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 1: made a case for themselves in the Senior Bowl. But

314
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: really it was the fact that I was just like, Okay,

315
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: what I saw on tape was real, right, like, Okay,

316
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: you actually do know how you actually do have a

317
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: good anchor right like you do. Your hands are super explosive.

318
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: I was just impressed with some of those guys that

319
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: came out there and made something. It made something, you know,

320
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: shake yesterday, well today for yesterday in the game. So

321
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: for me, that's what I was really looking at. This

322
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: offensive line, defensive line, this in a Senior Bowl. I've

323
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: got a couple of names. It sounds like it's a

324
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: positive thing. That's a great point. Sorry, Dan, I didn't

325
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: mean to cut you off there, but it sounds like

326
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: it's a positive thing. Because wide receiver an offensive line,

327
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 1: both of which shining and mobile, both of which the

328
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: Cowboys could certainly take a look at Dan Yeah, no question.

329
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 1: And I think, you know, to your point with with

330
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 1: offensive linemen, it's you know, once you get to the NFL,

331
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: all offensive linemen are. You know, they're they're quick, they're strong,

332
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: they're powerful. You know what separates offensive lineman in the

333
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: NFL is really the technical skill. Absolutely, that's what you're

334
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: looking for. And so I think a guy, you know,

335
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: you mentioned all the guys you mentioned, Yeah, they're seniors,

336
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: they're fifth year guys. A couple of six year guys

337
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: in there. Hey, um, I could argue that maybe the

338
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: best offensive player throughout the week was Osyrius Torrens from FLOD.

339
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,439
Speaker 1: He's yeah, he was a guy that you know, he

340
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: was really good at Louisiana Lafayette. He didn't need to

341
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 1: transfer to the SEC. He would have been already in

342
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 1: that top fifty conversation if he stayed put. He decides

343
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: to go to the SEC and challenge himself. He follows

344
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: his head coach Billy Napier to Florida, and SEC competition

345
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: was really not a problem for him. And so I

346
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: think he has cemented himself as a top forty prospect

347
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: in this draft could very easily go in the first round.

348
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 1: Should be the top guard in this draft. I just

349
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: it depends on if you think Peter Skerronsky from Northwestern's

350
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: a tackle or a guard. But besides Scarronsky, I think

351
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: he should be the first guard off the board. John

352
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,199
Speaker 1: Michael schmittz it was kind of like I mentioned with

353
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 1: Jaden Reid, how you know you get to go back

354
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: to his junior film to really appreciate Jane Reid. It's

355
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 1: kind of similar with John Michael schmidts. I don't know

356
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 1: that his senior His senior year tape was was good.

357
00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: It was okay, but I thought his junior year tape

358
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 1: was a lot better. And I think the senior board

359
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 1: really reminded us of that is okay. This guy, you know,

360
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: whether you want to no matter what you want to

361
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 1: throw at him, if you want to use power, you

362
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,360
Speaker 1: want to use quickness, uh, you want to use your leverage,

363
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: he has an answer for it. And he's a guy

364
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 1: that has played a lot of football um and so

365
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 1: he looks like a plug and play center and someone

366
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: that might not have a huge ceiling as a as

367
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 1: a as a starter in the NFL, but you feel

368
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: really good about his floor. You feel really about good

369
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: about him coming in from day one and helping your

370
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,239
Speaker 1: offensive line. Jaylen Duncan is another gentleman that I felt like,

371
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 1: uh came out and showed some some good things. His

372
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 1: instincts were pretty good at his feet, his hands from Maryland,

373
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,919
Speaker 1: by the way, Yes, from Maryland. By my mistakes, he

374
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,919
Speaker 1: does look like he needs a little bit of polish,

375
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 1: but I feel like he still came out and showed

376
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 1: power in his hand. I feel like his hand tech,

377
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 1: especially as improved since college. I don't know if he's

378
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 1: been working with somebody or not, but I felt like

379
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 1: his hands were a lot stronger in the senior bold

380
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 1: than I've seen them on film when I was watching

381
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: back at him. I like it overall. I think offensive

382
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 1: line is certainly a strong point for a lot of

383
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: the guys in this draft, and it's something that the

384
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: Cowboys are gonna have to continue to take a look

385
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 1: at as well. Like I mentioned a couple of moments ago,

386
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: but yeah, you mentioned John Michael Smith's Minnesota. Matthew bergeron

387
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: from Syracuse. He had a good week as well. Oh,

388
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: Cyrus Torrance out of Florida, and then Steve Abila out

389
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: of TCU. Lots of offensive linemen talk here to open

390
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: things up. But when we come back, we're gonna do

415
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: I relied on my vision to see the few. As

416
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 1: I started getting older, I noticed my vision wasn't as

417
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 1: good and I was getting frustrated from wearing my glasses

418
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 1: all day. I went to Laser Cure Eye Center and

437
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 1: Twitter Twitter on the Twitter. We have a tour coming by,

438
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,439
Speaker 1: and I was like poking up in the air and

439
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: they just kind of like laughed at me the whole

440
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 1: way because I was waiting on the sounder. But we

441
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 1: got it. We're good. Let's get into it a little

442
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: bit now. There have been forty five questions asked about

443
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: be Jean Robinson at twenty six. It's been a topic

444
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 1: of conversation amongst Cowboys Nation. I'm not going to answer

445
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 1: one specific question, but because everybody asked about it. I

446
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: want to get Dane's thoughts on it. Bijean at twenty six? One,

447
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: is it even possible? Does he fall that far? And two?

448
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 1: Does it fit the Cowboys? And it does it fit

449
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 1: the value of a pick at number twenty six? Does

450
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: it fit the Cowboys? Absolutely? Yeah, I don't here's any

451
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: question about that. Now, obviously we'll see what happens this offseason,

452
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 1: you know, at running back for the team. Um, you

453
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: know they've with Zeke and Pollard. Obviously they have to

454
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: make decisions there and figure out what's going to happen.

455
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: But if if they enter the draft and you have

456
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: a need at running back, you know, you can't do

457
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 1: any better than be Jean Robinson. You know, he's he's

458
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: so impressive with the way he can make you miss

459
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 1: with both his power and his quickness. He has vision,

460
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: he runs with tempo and forget the running back route tree.

461
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 1: He can run a wide receiver route tree no problem.

462
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 1: Line him up in the slot and he'll run a

463
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,719
Speaker 1: post for you. And he's a very good pass catcher.

464
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: So and there's just a lot to like about him

465
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: as a complete back. Now and we're talking about you know,

466
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: later in the first round. So we're not talking about

467
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: a top ten pick here. You know, he's he at

468
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 1: least should be part of the conversation. Now, I think that,

469
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 1: all right, Well, first we'll do will he be there?

470
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 1: And I think there's a good chance he is. You know,

471
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 1: when you do a mock draft and you go through

472
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,919
Speaker 1: the first twenty five picks, it's hard to find a

473
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 1: really logical landing spot for him. You know, a team

474
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 1: that really needs that running back that you know would

475
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 1: conceivably take him in the first round. So I think

476
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,199
Speaker 1: there's a good chance he is still available after the

477
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: first twenty five picks. Now is the value there? Should

478
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 1: the Cowboys do that? That's that's where it is a debate.

479
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: And I don't know that there's necessarily an absolutely right

480
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 1: or absolutely a wrong answer here. It's more about, you know,

481
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 1: hypotheticals and what are your what's the best way to

482
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: build a roster? I mean, you know, you look at

483
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. A lot of their first round success the

484
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: last you know, ten years or so has been taking

485
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: positions early that maybe aren't high valued whether and they've

486
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: hit on those, you know, like Zeke has been a

487
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 1: good player. Um, you know, especially on his rookie contract.

488
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: And you think about Zach Martin, you think about some

489
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 1: of the other positions they've drafted first round, they've hit

490
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 1: on those. But is it and this is philosophy, uh

491
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 1: more more philosophy question when you when you look at

492
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: the draft and what you want out of your first

493
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 1: round pick, should you be going for that high floor

494
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: You should be you know, going for more of a

495
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 1: high ceiling prospect at a premium position, whether that's corner,

496
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:16,679
Speaker 1: pass rusher, offensive line, if you can find a stud

497
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 1: receiver in the late first round. So, you know, I

498
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 1: think it's a philosophy that the NFL is constantly evolving.

499
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,239
Speaker 1: Front offices and the way they think are constantly evolving. Uh.

500
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: You know, Will McClay does such a good job of

501
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 1: kind of spearheading all of that, and you know, putting

502
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: the Cowboys in position to you know, build the board

503
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 1: and really target what they need. So where we are

504
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: right now, this is what early February, I will be

505
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 1: surprised if Bjean Robinson ends up with the Dallas Cowboys.

506
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 1: That would surprise me, but you don't rule it out.

507
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 1: With the history of how this team drafts. I love it.

508
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: Dane just go ahead and put it out there, because

509
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 1: half they just had their hearts feelings. The other half

510
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: of Cowboys Nation just just jumped up in elation. They

511
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,719
Speaker 1: were just ready to roll. As So are we asking

512
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 1: which running backs would maybe fit with the Cowboys? Possible

513
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: we are doing moving forward, maybe in the later rounds,

514
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 1: Probably not at twenty six. Oh y, yeah, Well, I

515
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,920
Speaker 1: mean if we're looking at the deep running back class,

516
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: right is yeah, this is a deep running back class, right.

517
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure you guys have looked at these

518
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 1: guys and you probably agree. It's just you know, you

519
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 1: don't have to get that guy in the first round.

520
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 1: Last year, we only have like like three running backs

521
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: drafted the first like ninety picks or something. Yeah, this

522
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: year it won't be like that. We're gonna have you know, one,

523
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 1: maybe two in the first round, two, three in the

524
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 1: second round, four or five, six in the third round,

525
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 1: and then there'll be good players. If I can get

526
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: Eric Gray from Oklahoma in the late third, early fourth round,

527
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,679
Speaker 1: I'm I'm feeling like I just stole him. So you know,

528
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: it's it's a position that you don't I feel really

529
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 1: comfortable waiting on. With this draft class, that we have

530
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, there's a couple big twelve running backs

531
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 1: that aren't named b Jean Robinson that you should keep

532
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: your eye on, both Oklahoma and then another Texas guy

533
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 1: who of course was at the Senior Bowl in Rashaan

534
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: Johnson who had a hand injury. But my goodness, he's

535
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: he's a downhill runner as well. All right, second question,

536
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: who was the most pro ready wide receiver that you've

537
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 1: seen so far in this year's draft. I'll start with Dane,

538
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 1: but I want Aisha's answer on this one too. I

539
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: would probably go at Jackson Smith and Jigbo Ohio even

540
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 1: without the production this year because of the injury. Yeah, wow, Yeah,

541
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 1: it doesn't bother me at all. I mean this guy,

542
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean c J. Stroud over the summer said that

543
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 1: Smith and Jigbo was the best route runner he's ever

544
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: played with. And let's remember he played last year. His

545
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 1: wide receivers were with Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson, two guys

546
00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: that just went over a thousand yards receiving in the NFL.

547
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 1: And the third guy and he also plays with Marvin

548
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: Harrison and Bucca is a really good receiver. I mean,

549
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: Ohio State has just been pumping out those receivers. But CJ.

550
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 1: Stroud definitively said Jackson Smith and Jigbo is the best

551
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 1: route runner he's ever played with. And look, Smith and

552
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: Jigba was not gonna run great. You know, he's gonna

553
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: be a mid four or fives guy. That's not his game.

554
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: His game is route running out of the slot and

555
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 1: being a reliable pass catcher, and it's really good ball skills.

556
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 1: I do wonder if he's a fit for this this

557
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 1: team because to me, Smith and Jigbo, if you're not

558
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: playing him in the slot, I think you're misusing him.

559
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb, I think does a lot of great things

560
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: from the slot. You know, do they want to keep

561
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb working from as an inside receiver or are they,

562
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 1: you know, willing to move him outside. If they're willing

563
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 1: to keep him on the outside, then I think Smith

564
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: and Jigba becomes more of an option. But if you

565
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: want Ceedee Lamb working a lot from the slot, then

566
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: I don't know that Smith and jig was necessarily a fit.

567
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: So I don't get mad at don't get mad at me,

568
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: but I think this is this guy's a lot of

569
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: people's favorites. But Tank Dell was very impressive to me.

570
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: He was impressive to me because I feel like the

571
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: gentleman just has a feel for the game as a receiver.

572
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: And when I say that is I mean like if

573
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: I think he understands like a corner sitting on his hips,

574
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 1: so let me, you know, flip my hips here or

575
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: let me go up field, let me turn up field

576
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 1: from he just looks so natural to me, as opposed

577
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: to a lot of receivers that we saw out there

578
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: that just understood leverage, understood how to go pass people,

579
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: knows how to accelerate, when to accelerate. The hand fighting

580
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: was there, but the route running sometimes it seems like

581
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: he's freestyling, and just for him to be freestyling and

582
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: getting open in that way, I'm like this guy with

583
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: some polish and maybe a little bit more refining could

584
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: be dominant. To me, he was one of the only

585
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: gentlemen that looked like he had star power every time

586
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 1: he touched the ball, and so I feel like, with

587
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 1: some coaching, this guy could really get it done. A

588
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 1: Tank Dell from Houstons and Nathaniel get Nathaniel. Nathaniel, let

589
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: me say Nathaniel Tank Dell. His tape is phenomenal. I mean,

590
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: his tape is fun to watch because he's a playmaker.

591
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 1: But Dane, I was actually going to ask you about

592
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: him a little bit later in the show, but I'll

593
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: insert another player into bat tell me more about than

594
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: Fanuel Dell and what his overall scouting report looks like,

595
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 1: because I used just not alone. He impressed a lot

596
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 1: of people in Mobile, Oh, no doubt. I mean he

597
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:30,479
Speaker 1: was the most sudden wide receiver at this year's Senior Bowl. Um.

598
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: The way he can settle uncover in the blink of

599
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: an eye is really impressive. He can really scoot and

600
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: he can win over the top. He can get open

601
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: when he wants. And obviously the big thing you worry

602
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 1: about is he's small. He's a letter and sixty three pounds. Um.

603
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: You know, we we've seen you know, I remember it

604
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: wasn't at two two years ago the kid in North Texas,

605
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: Jale Darden who uh you know a lot of people

606
00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 1: liked I liked him, Dan round of the Bucks. Yeah. Well,

607
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: and you know the size size really worried me. And

608
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: that's you know two two out. Well with the rams

609
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: they took him in I think the second round he

610
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: has not panned out, So it's I think it's fair

611
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 1: to question the size and how that's going to translate.

612
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 1: But I do agree on hundred percent with some of

613
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 1: his instincts as a receiver. The way he could the

614
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 1: way you could snap off routes really really impressive. So

615
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: if you're comfortable with the size, I think that you

616
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 1: know you're going to look at Tank Dell as a

617
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: as a possibility on day two. How much bigger is

618
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: he than CD when he came out, Oh, CD's got

619
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: four inches on as far as like, but are you

620
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 1: worried about the hider the way more than Probably a

621
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 1: little bit of both right then? Well, because he climbed

622
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: the ladder quite a few times also too, I mean,

623
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: he doesn't seem like he struggles with high point in

624
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 1: the ball or his hands or anything. So I just wonder,

625
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 1: I mean, if he if he puts on a little

626
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: bit more size, I guess if he's going to be

627
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 1: the same guy. But I just was impressed with just

628
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: the natural I'm a receiver. You look at that guy,

629
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 1: you just immediately say like, that's a receiver, and that's

630
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 1: a guy that can get open on his own, and

631
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: I think he would be QUB friendly in a way

632
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: as well. I also think that's the thing. If you're

633
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: gonna be undersized, you know, if you're gonna be my

634
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: size and play wide receive in the NFL, you better

635
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: be pretty good. That would be good. You know, he

636
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 1: and he and he is that. No, to your point,

637
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 1: he is. He is very good. He's a very good athlete.

638
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 1: He catches the ball pretty cleanly for a smaller guy. Um.

639
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: You do question, though, what is the growth potential? You know,

640
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: Kenny get to one seventy I'm not I don't know.

641
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: I don't know that he can, but I'm not gonna

642
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: say you can't. So you have to. I think you

643
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: part of drafting him as early as that you have

644
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: to be a little convinced that he can get a

645
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 1: little bit bigger. Um. And that's something that I think

646
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: scouts will be a little bit split on. Okay, you're

647
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 1: a little bit bigger than five eight one sixty three, right,

648
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 1: Like you're a little taller than that, Dane. What's your

649
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 1: scouting report looking like? If you were measured at the

650
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl, what would it come out to be? Uh?

651
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: Probably yeah, maybe five nine five nine and a half.

652
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 1: I'll give you the half. I don't want to know

653
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: what my forty. I don't want to You mentioned we

654
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: talked about Michael Wilson from Stanford. Yeah, we talked about him,

655
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 1: and granted I understand it's he has me torn a

656
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: bit because as a route runner, I know that we

657
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 1: talked about oh, Jackson Smith and Jake Yes Jackson, Yes,

658
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 1: we talked about him, but man, uh, Michael Wilson's route

659
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 1: running was to me was so impressive, just how fluid

660
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,480
Speaker 1: he seemed and and I don't know if that came

661
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 1: with the fact that maybe when he had the time

662
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 1: off when he was injured, he was just like, hey,

663
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 1: let me just you know, act like I'm running routes.

664
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: But the guy just seems like he understands how to

665
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 1: get guys get, you know, to beat press coverage. And

666
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 1: I think that's a huge part of what the NFL

667
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: is doing now and going back into playing a lot

668
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: more pressed. So I'm excited to see Granted, I understand

669
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 1: you mentioned his injuries, but if you are going to

670
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: take a chance on him, you are getting a more

671
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: refined route runner um to Stall. Then I think a

672
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: lot of wide receivers are to start. So I was

673
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: impressed on him as well. And for you know, the character,

674
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 1: the intelligence, He's exactly what you would expect from a

675
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,919
Speaker 1: guy at Stanford. Like he is a very very intelligent guy.

676
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 1: And I think that that plays into what you're saying.

677
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: He understands, uh, some of some of the details of

678
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 1: the position that other people might overlook. He understands leverage,

679
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 1: he understands depth. Um, so yeah, to your point, very

680
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 1: good route runner and you know they're just he can

681
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 1: catch the ball through contact. He's a good He's a

682
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: bigger athlete. He has the size too, but he moves

683
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: like a smaller at exactly. And that's what that's what's

684
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: interesting to me is that his feet for him to

685
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: be so so tall and like lean, his feet match

686
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: and that's that's what's It's not something you see like

687
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: that when you see a guy that big and physical,

688
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 1: and so I feel like he's going to be a

689
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 1: mismatch issue issue at points in time if he is

690
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 1: going to be someone that is drafted here. He's got

691
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 1: that inside outside versatility too to be able to play

692
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: tough on the inside and then move back outside. With

693
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 1: his size, he's an interesting mid round prospect. You can

694
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: keep him healthy. You're trying to step in, Yeah, trying

695
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: to staff is good. He Another reason he's kind of

696
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 1: the ideal mid round target is because he can also

697
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 1: give you value on special teams. So when you're looking

698
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 1: for that number four receiver on the depth chart, uh,

699
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 1: you know, he just checks all those boxes, um, and

700
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 1: so for the right value. You know, I don't know

701
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 1: what's that third round, fourth round, wherever he ends up going. Um,

702
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,760
Speaker 1: you just hope that. And this is where scouts, uh,

703
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 1: you know, you're on pins and needles going into the

704
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 1: combine because you're hoping that you know, the guys that

705
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: you like that you gave good grades to. You're hoping

706
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 1: the team doctor comes out and gives you the thumbs

707
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 1: up that hey, yeah he's okay for us. Uh. You know,

708
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: some teams will use number systems one, two, three, four, Uh,

709
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 1: you know what what number is he? Is he a

710
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: guy that's going to be a box player, Like we're

711
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 1: not going to draft him, or you know, or is

712
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,840
Speaker 1: he good enough we can work with those injuries or

713
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,800
Speaker 1: there's no long term worries. So a lot of scouts

714
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 1: would be on pins and needles waiting for those medical results.

715
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: And how about Stanford putting a prototypical wide out in

716
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 1: Michael Wilson to the Senior Bowl, but also putting in

717
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: Elijah Higgins, who is a little Debbi cake away from

718
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: being a tight end. I mean six foot to two

719
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty pounds, I mean two twenty eight is

720
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,439
Speaker 1: what he weighed in in mobile. He's either a big

721
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 1: slot or he might actually end up being a tight

722
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 1: end at some point. He's got to fix up his

723
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 1: route running a little bit, but he was kind of

724
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: intriguing to me, kind of flashes as a matchup piece

725
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 1: down the line. Now, next question, and it does have

726
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 1: to deal with wide receivers, but I kind of want

727
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 1: to open it up just as a general conversation. Our

728
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: friend co Fax goes on here and he says, Will

729
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: McCarthy and Brian Schottenheimer taking over the offense changed the

730
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,319
Speaker 1: type of wide receivers that the team draps, and how

731
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 1: would it change things. I don't want to just pigeonhole

732
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 1: this this topic to wide receivers because it could change

733
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 1: multiple things. Does it change anything immediately day off? Based

734
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: off of what you've seen for Brian Schottenheimer in the past.

735
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 1: The new offensive coordinator brought in, he's not going to

736
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 1: be calling plays, It'll be McCarthy. But how much does

737
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: it waiver the way that the Cowboys have thought in

738
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 1: the draft process. Yeah, And I think some of those

739
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 1: questions are going to be a little unanswered because, like

740
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,959
Speaker 1: I said, when you you know, you're a long time

741
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,479
Speaker 1: offensive coach, you've had a little bit of time off

742
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 1: or you know, a little time not calling plays, how

743
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,280
Speaker 1: does your philosophy change with how you want to attack

744
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 1: the game. And I think really a lot of the

745
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 1: ANSWER's stem around Cede Lamb. You know, I mentioned earlier

746
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: how he does a lot of great work from the slot.

747
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 1: So Ceedee Lamb's the you know right now, he's the

748
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,280
Speaker 1: best weapon you have on offense. So you're gonna build

749
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: your offense around putting Ceedee Lamb in advantageous positions. So

750
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 1: where's that going to be? Is it going to be

751
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 1: fifty fifty inside outside, is it going to be more

752
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,839
Speaker 1: eighty percent inside? Where do you want Ceedee Lamb to be?

753
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 1: And I think the answer to those questions will dictate

754
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 1: what you do around him. So I think that's what

755
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,279
Speaker 1: you start with Ceedee Lamb. You know, are you going

756
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,240
Speaker 1: to be a twelve personnel team on offense? You know what,

757
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: how are you going to use the tight ends? I

758
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: think a lot of these questions. You know, we can

759
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: look at what you know coach did in Green Bay

760
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: all those years. We can look with Schattenheimer did all

761
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,800
Speaker 1: those years as an offensive coordinator in the past. But again,

762
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 1: I think philosophies change, and you know, the offense offensive

763
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 1: football in the NFL is so evolved so much that

764
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 1: I think a lot of these questions are going to

765
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 1: be a little bit unanswered as we go into this offseason. Now,

766
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: that's a good point. And you mentioned the tight ends.

767
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,359
Speaker 1: It's crazy because I went into this draft thinking like

768
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,920
Speaker 1: I don't see the Cowboys looking at tight end just

769
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: because not right away, just because you know, you got

770
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,840
Speaker 1: Jake Ferguson. You also too, you got Peyton hender shot

771
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 1: that you got as an undrafted free agent last year.

772
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 1: I don't know what's happening with Dullan Shels. When I

773
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 1: was just thinking of I was like, well, maybe it

774
00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: could go tight end. Maybe with what you're saying in

775
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: the way that I mean, Obviously, philosophies do change and stuff,

776
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 1: but tight ends for either one of those gentlemen have

777
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: been important just for the running game and all the

778
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: things that they do. There, did any of the tight

779
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,880
Speaker 1: ends stick out to you, um, Dane in this in

780
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 1: this in the Senior Bowl, because I had a guy

781
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 1: that I thought stood out just because of his blocking ability.

782
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: Who's your guy? Oh well, let me go find my

783
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 1: notes on Oh Taiter Todds, don't rush. It's okay. We

784
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:29,800
Speaker 1: could let Dan answer first. Yes, yeah, for me, I

785
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 1: paint that there is there is my note through here.

786
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 1: I want to hear what you what we thought about him? Now? Yeah,

787
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 1: So I feel like he showed obviously he showed his

788
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 1: the blocking ability is there, but just the fluid, the

789
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,800
Speaker 1: fluidity out of the blocks is I think it's important

790
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 1: moving forward because we're seeing a lot more tight ends

791
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 1: that are, you know, showing like, hey, I'm blocking here,

792
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 1: but I could slip out here and I'm a receiver now,

793
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 1: and I think that has value. Also, I don't know

794
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,360
Speaker 1: if he has a whole bunch of yackability, but he

795
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: has the size to break tackles if necessary. He made

796
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: some pretty dope high point catches also too in the game,

797
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 1: and I just this those are the things that stood

798
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: out last year with Jake Ferguson. I think that's how

799
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 1: he got drafted because to that point, I thought Jake

800
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: Ferguson was good, but his Senior bowls will really made

801
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 1: people be like, hey, listen, this guy maybe has some

802
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: receiver qualities as well, and so paying Durham kind of

803
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 1: sprinkling that onto the his ability to block the way

804
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 1: that he does. I definitely feel like he's gonna be

805
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 1: someone that people are looking at, just because run blocking

806
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 1: from the tight end position is starting to feel like

807
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 1: something that I know this team finds important they emphasize

808
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,279
Speaker 1: this year because you had two rookies coming here that

809
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 1: I thought one of them could block pretty well, but

810
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:45,759
Speaker 1: then you saw the other one come through and he

811
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,839
Speaker 1: was like, oh, okay, so we're teaching blocking here. So

812
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,279
Speaker 1: I don't know. Moving forward, I want to keep an

813
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 1: eye on him because I feel like his blocking ability

814
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 1: is what's going to really take him over the top.

815
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:59,400
Speaker 1: In my opinion, YEP, I agree with a lot of

816
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 1: what you said. His ability to snatch snatch of football

817
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 1: outside of his frame, it was really on display during

818
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl practices. Um. I thought he didn't outstay any

819
00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 1: job in that area. And this is a guy that

820
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 1: he was a four year lacrosse player in high school.

821
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 1: He only played football a senior year. So, you know,

822
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 1: a guy that is a tough, physical athlete. He has

823
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 1: translated that to the football field. I thought he did

824
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: an excellent job blocking. Um, you know, I don't know

825
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 1: what his upside is in terms of, you know, Canny

826
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:31,799
Speaker 1: be a big play threat. I don't know that he's

827
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 1: necessarily that. But I feel like I can trust him.

828
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 1: I feel like he's getting better and better, and I

829
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 1: can feel I can feel comfortable with him as my

830
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 1: my number two tight end and then maybe a guy

831
00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 1: that can ascend even more after a couple of years

832
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:47,840
Speaker 1: in the program. But you know, he reminded me a

833
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 1: little bit of Jesse James, Uh, you know who. He

834
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 1: was pretty good out of Penn State. Had had a

835
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 1: pretty good career with the Steelers, Uh, you know for

836
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 1: six seven years. Um, that's what we reminded me of.

837
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,319
Speaker 1: But I think, you know, and especially we're talking about

838
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 1: a fourth or fifth round guy. I think, I don't know,

839
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 1: maybe he gets in the top one hundred if a

840
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 1: team really likes him, But I think we're talking more

841
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 1: early day three for Paying Durham and so for that

842
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,360
Speaker 1: price tag, Yeah, I'm all over him. This is a

843
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,279
Speaker 1: it's a really deep tight end group. I mean, I've

844
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 1: I've never seen so many tight ends worthy of top thirty,

845
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:23,399
Speaker 1: top fifty consideration then this year and so first round,

846
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 1: second round, even into the third round with a guy

847
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 1: like Sam Laporta from Iowa. You know, I think it's

848
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: a really deep tight end class this year. But it's

849
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 1: also one you could feel like, you know, you're not

850
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 1: gonna feel pressured to take one early. If you're a

851
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: team like the Cowboys, you feel like you can wait

852
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,400
Speaker 1: to the third or fourth round and still feel pretty

853
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 1: good about the guy you're getting. It kind of goes

854
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 1: back to what you were talking about. You initially it

855
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: doesn't look like a need, but at some point it

856
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 1: might be a need. And if a guy like Paying

857
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,959
Speaker 1: Durham works his way into the fifth round, sixth round,

858
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:55,799
Speaker 1: all of a sudden he's on the table for you,

859
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: why not use one of those comp pics to shure

860
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,399
Speaker 1: up your tight end room. Actually, if you're gonna move

861
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 1: on from Dalton Schultz, that's the biggest factor with it.

862
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,440
Speaker 1: And you mentioned like we you know, Dane, you mentioned sorry,

863
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:11,480
Speaker 1: you're gonna go no, no, as you say, just to

864
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,840
Speaker 1: add on to that thought, like this is, when's the

865
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 1: last time this team drafted a tight end? Uh, you know,

866
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:22,160
Speaker 1: in in the first round. You know it does time decades, decades,

867
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 1: you know, but even like like the top one hundred picks,

868
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 1: you have to go. I think it's maybe Gavin Escobar

869
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 1: the last time they think at a tight end and

870
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 1: the top one hundred. So you know, this is a

871
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:37,479
Speaker 1: team that historically tells us they are okay, waiting until

872
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: the fourth round to get a guy. We need to

873
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 1: take our second break. When we come back, let's do

874
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,800
Speaker 1: some tell me more. I'm gonna bring up some players.

875
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna throw them at Dane. We're gonna throw them

876
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 1: at a show. We're gonna get their their scouting report,

877
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 1: get their thoughts with a little bit of tell me more.

878

916
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 1: middle of the break, Aisha and Dane chopping it up.

917
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,799
Speaker 1: We're having some fun here on a Wednesday. Brian and

918
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:15,960
Speaker 1: Bobby will be back with us tomorrow. They are out

919
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 1: in Glendale, Arizona as a part of the one oh

920
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:21,080
Speaker 1: five three, the fan coverage of the Super Bowl, but

921
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 1: they will be back on the Draft Show. Dame Brugler,

922
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,239
Speaker 1: Aisha Morrison, I'm Kyle Yeoman's We've got Chris Meme and

923
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 1: the back wrapping things up with a little bit of

924
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:32,800
Speaker 1: tell me more. So I had I had four names

925
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 1: written down to tell me more of two of them

926
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,320
Speaker 1: we've already hit, and that was Tank Dell out of

927
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 1: the out of Houston wide receiver and then Clayton Tune,

928
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: quarterback from Houston. I want to start with running back

929
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,399
Speaker 1: from Tulane. And this is somebody who caught my eye

930
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:49,080
Speaker 1: during the Cotton Bowl because I went to the game

931
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 1: just as a fan, just kind of watching. Taj Spears

932
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,399
Speaker 1: is a dude. Because as soon as I saw him

933
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,799
Speaker 1: in the Cotton Bowl up against USC, I went back

934
00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 1: watched his tape. I was really impressed with us his explosiveness.

935
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 1: Not a big guy, he's actually pretty slender for the position,

936
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:10,040
Speaker 1: but overall five foot nine two oh five. But man,

937
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:11,839
Speaker 1: this guy's fun to watch and he showed it again

938
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 1: in Mobile Dane. Love him. I mean, he's so much

939
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:21,839
Speaker 1: fun to watch. Um he's uh, he has that elusiveness

940
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 1: so he can create his own yardage. Um, he's very slippery,

941
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 1: very dynamic. Uh. The start stop cutting skills are really impressive.

942
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 1: But he also brings patience. Um, you know he's got

943
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:37,680
Speaker 1: that uh, that that patience behind his blockers and then boom,

944
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 1: he's gone dart that darting acceleration as soon as he

945
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:46,279
Speaker 1: finds that crease. Um not a powerful guy to like,

946
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:48,440
Speaker 1: you know what you're saying with with the lack of size,

947
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 1: But he's not soft either. You know, he's not a

948
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,879
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna go down necessarily with arm tackles. Um.

949
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 1: You know he will keep his legs moving. Uh. You know.

950
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:02,279
Speaker 1: So I think that explosive read playing burst, I want

951
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:04,240
Speaker 1: that on my team. I want that in my offense.

952
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,200
Speaker 1: Reminds me a lot of James Cook out of Georgia

953
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 1: last year, who the Bills took in the second round.

954
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:13,880
Speaker 1: I think you're talking similar running style, similar athletes. I

955
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,480
Speaker 1: think he shows potential for three down duties. You know,

956
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 1: he wasn't a high volume pass catcher at Tulane, but

957
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:22,319
Speaker 1: he catches the ball pretty cleanly, you know, when he

958
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,280
Speaker 1: is targeted, caught the ball well down to mobile. So

959
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 1: I'm you know, it doesn't have the desired run strength

960
00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:31,760
Speaker 1: or the build, but somewhere on day two I'd feel

961
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,600
Speaker 1: very comfortable drafting him and having him be a key

962
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,920
Speaker 1: piece of my running back rotation. The biggest obstacle for

963
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:42,120
Speaker 1: Spears is going to be the medicals past knee issues

964
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 1: with him. So he's one of those guys where I'd

965
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 1: be crossing my fingers waiting to hear back from the

966
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 1: doctors about long term what it looks like. Is he

967
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:52,920
Speaker 1: a guy that you know we'd be okay drafting and so,

968
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: you know, hoping for good news for him on that front. Yeah,

969
00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:58,920
Speaker 1: you mentioned his health issues, and that's actually one of

970
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,319
Speaker 1: the things that I took down. It was that's why

971
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 1: in the in the Senior Bowl, I was looking at

972
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,760
Speaker 1: how he held up in pass pro and he actually,

973
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:09,680
Speaker 1: to me, showed such a willingness and pass pro that

974
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 1: I wasn't saw sure I saw from him consistently during

975
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 1: the season. Maybe you know, when I watched philm on him,

976
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:18,000
Speaker 1: maybe that was because of the injury. So I was like, okay,

977
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,400
Speaker 1: does he trust his body here, because obviously that's going

978
00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:22,359
Speaker 1: to be a part of the game. But one thing

979
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 1: that I liked from him in a game where a

980
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:26,640
Speaker 1: lot of two highs played, Now, hey, the dude is

981
00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:28,959
Speaker 1: a really good underneath the option that can make something

982
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,400
Speaker 1: out of nothing. He's such a good security blanket, and

983
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 1: I like how he separates and you mentioned him being

984
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:36,879
Speaker 1: a receiver. I think that's having receiving qualities. That's kind

985
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:39,120
Speaker 1: of what I've been looking at in every running back

986
00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 1: I've looked at, because in this NFL right now, it

987
00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 1: feels like you're running back. Yeah you want the power guy,

988
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:47,359
Speaker 1: but it feels like the guys that are a little

989
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,759
Speaker 1: bit more slippery and have some receiving qualities are the

990
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:53,279
Speaker 1: guys that are, I don't know, getting get They get

991
00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 1: my attention at this point for what you're trying to

992
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: do offensively. So his receiving qualities are what really stood

993
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 1: out to me. I know he can run the rock,

994
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 1: but he has soft hands for a wide receiver, and

995
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:06,839
Speaker 1: he's decisive, like you said in regards to him hid

996
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 1: in the hole and being like, yeah, I want to

997
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,279
Speaker 1: go right here, so I'm gonna go. And that's that's

998
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,600
Speaker 1: something that I feel like is going to be important

999
00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:16,399
Speaker 1: for the home run ability in him moving forward, something

1000
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 1: that Tony Poller possesses as well. Yeah, I'm excited to

1001
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,680
Speaker 1: see how he ends up testing. I want to see

1002
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:23,799
Speaker 1: how he blows the interviews out of the water, because

1003
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 1: apparently he's just a fun guy to talk to. So

1004
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,279
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see how he rises, because I don't

1005
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,399
Speaker 1: think Dane said a moment ago with the second round

1006
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:34,200
Speaker 1: James Cook, I don't think his stock is set in

1007
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 1: stone right now. It's a middle round stock. But he's

1008
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:40,000
Speaker 1: probably gonna rise as we go along. Same thing with

1009
00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:41,920
Speaker 1: this guy that I'm bringing up. And this is somebody

1010
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,960
Speaker 1: that you had your eye on, Northwestern ed Rusher, Addie

1011
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:48,839
Speaker 1: Tommy wa Addie Bari. I did it as much as

1012
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 1: I could. I didn't name as close as I could,

1013
00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 1: Tommy wa Atabari. I wrote it. I wrote down the pronuncia.

1014
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,360
Speaker 1: I've got it too, and I I would not butcher it.

1015
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:01,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, he looked right. They look crazy and I

1016
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 1: like it like he sees Yeah. I mean he's vicious

1017
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 1: in a in a sense. And me, you know, we

1018
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:09,040
Speaker 1: were just talking about it before the break. Just how

1019
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:10,719
Speaker 1: if you look at him on paper, you look at

1020
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 1: his size and stuff, You're like, Okay, is this a

1021
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:14,839
Speaker 1: is this what he's supposed to be doing? But then

1022
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 1: you watch him in the Senior Bowl and he's just

1023
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 1: like he's ripping through guys. He has so much. He

1024
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 1: can have speed to power, which is weird, he's twitchy.

1025
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 1: I was asking Dane like, what is he missing? What

1026
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 1: is he missing? If you weren't gonna, you know, draft him,

1027
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: why would it be And it would just be because

1028
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,640
Speaker 1: of you know, with Danson it's just he's not the

1029
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:34,839
Speaker 1: typical build, I guess for that position at this point,

1030
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:39,759
Speaker 1: who cares? Can the guy play? Like? Guy? Is he

1031
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:42,560
Speaker 1: disruptive and he's gonna get on people's nerves. I think

1032
00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:45,040
Speaker 1: he's gonna get on people's nerves. Bitten's gonna people's get

1033
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: on people's nerves. Um, I see what it is well

1034
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 1: Bitten from Wisconsin, Wisconsin, my bad. Yeah, yes, I feel

1035
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 1: like those guys are just disruptors in the past. Rush

1036
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:59,239
Speaker 1: ability um is something that I feel like a lot

1037
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:01,839
Speaker 1: of people are looking at DT these days. So yeah,

1038
00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:05,400
Speaker 1: I like I like Homie. I like the crazy what

1039
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 1: you think Dane well, and that's what what you really

1040
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:11,360
Speaker 1: like about him, even though he doesn't have maybe the

1041
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,880
Speaker 1: ideal height and weight. You know, he's six one and

1042
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:16,200
Speaker 1: a half two hundred and eighty five pounds, but he

1043
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:20,800
Speaker 1: has disapportionate arm length and hands. I mean he has

1044
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 1: thirty four inch arms, almost eleven inch hands, so and

1045
00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,040
Speaker 1: he he uses that when you say that's a lot

1046
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:31,759
Speaker 1: with shorter defensive lineman, but he really does use that

1047
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:34,799
Speaker 1: natural leverage to his advantage to get underneath blockers. We

1048
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:37,200
Speaker 1: saw it consistently in the one on ones down at

1049
00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:40,440
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl. Uh to use that natural power get

1050
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:44,120
Speaker 1: underneath blockers drive him backwards. Um, he's shot out of

1051
00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:46,480
Speaker 1: a cannon at the snap. You love that initial quickness,

1052
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:51,520
Speaker 1: that upfield quickness that he brings to really threatened gaps

1053
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 1: is impressive. He's very very active with his hands, so

1054
00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:58,879
Speaker 1: even when he does get locked up, he doesn't stay

1055
00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 1: locked up for long. He is so active that he

1056
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:05,560
Speaker 1: is always trying to get off of those blocks. Twitchy athlete.

1057
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:09,680
Speaker 1: So yeah, there's just again, Yeah, like we said, one

1058
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:12,319
Speaker 1: of those guys that maybe on paper doesn't necessarily grab you,

1059
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 1: but you turn on the tape and it's like, okay,

1060
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:16,399
Speaker 1: tape after tape after tape, you take all your notes,

1061
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,920
Speaker 1: you look down, You've got way more strengths than than

1062
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,600
Speaker 1: than negatives, and it's like, Okay, why shouldn't I like

1063
00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:25,200
Speaker 1: this guy? And so I'm actually I'm working on my

1064
00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:28,319
Speaker 1: top one hundred that'll be out on the Athletic next week,

1065
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 1: and it's like, I don't know how I keep this

1066
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 1: guy out of my top one hundred with what I

1067
00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 1: saw with my own eyes down there at the Senior Bowl,

1068
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,480
Speaker 1: with you know, watching the Ohio State tape and seeing

1069
00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:39,439
Speaker 1: him against that Ohio State offensive line, watching him over

1070
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:43,080
Speaker 1: his career, it's like, man, I would you know, sure,

1071
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:44,360
Speaker 1: I'd love to get him in the fourth round, but

1072
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna last me that long,

1073
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:48,600
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be hard to keep him out of

1074
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:51,959
Speaker 1: my top one hundred. Remember the name Addie Tommy Addie Barre.

1075
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,000
Speaker 1: I tried it again just for my own practice, just

1076
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,040
Speaker 1: to try and put it out there. We're gonna get

1077
00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,520
Speaker 1: it by Tommy too, So yeah, you can go by

1078
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:04,839
Speaker 1: Tommy if oh Tommy Patty bar that's even better. Very nice,

1079
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,400
Speaker 1: all right, last guy, And this is a wide receiver

1080
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:10,040
Speaker 1: that I know Cowboys fans have been asking about a

1081
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:12,399
Speaker 1: couple different times, but we haven't talked about him yet,

1082
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,359
Speaker 1: kay sewn Booty Is that how you say his name?

1083
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:19,880
Speaker 1: Bo Boat from LSU? I looked at his pronunciation. It's

1084
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:21,920
Speaker 1: still it's not a great pronunciation, but I think it's

1085
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 1: Booty LSU wide receiver came out potentially in your top

1086
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 1: one hundred Dane what is where does he kind of

1087
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:33,680
Speaker 1: rank and what does he bring to the table. He

1088
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:36,120
Speaker 1: was one of the bigger wild cards in this draft,

1089
00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:39,000
Speaker 1: um because I think you just don't know. Okay, like

1090
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 1: three four years from now, he could be going to

1091
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:44,440
Speaker 1: a second Pro Bowl, he could be on a third team.

1092
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:48,319
Speaker 1: Neither of those outcomes would surprise me. Honestly, he is

1093
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:51,360
Speaker 1: that much of a wild card. When you watch the

1094
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:53,360
Speaker 1: good it's really good. You know, you throw on the

1095
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:56,360
Speaker 1: Georgia tap, the SEC Championship game, you like what you

1096
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:59,680
Speaker 1: see from him. But too many other times he disappears

1097
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:01,480
Speaker 1: and he's just not a big part of the offense,

1098
00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:05,880
Speaker 1: and so you know, you just really question just what

1099
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,080
Speaker 1: type of impact is he is he bringing to your offense.

1100
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:11,080
Speaker 1: Because of that, I think that that good chance that

1101
00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,200
Speaker 1: knocks him out of the first two rounds and then

1102
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:15,279
Speaker 1: it's just about, you know, each team and where they

1103
00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:17,400
Speaker 1: would feel comfortable rolling the dice on a guy like this,

1104
00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:21,239
Speaker 1: third round, fourth round, wherever that is, but a couple

1105
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,240
Speaker 1: of other things working against them. A lot of teams

1106
00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 1: that I've talked to see him as a slot only guy.

1107
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:28,960
Speaker 1: You know, a little more drops than you want to

1108
00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 1: see from him. But he's a really good athlete. I

1109
00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:33,319
Speaker 1: think what he does best is after the catch. It's

1110
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:35,600
Speaker 1: kind of like Jamar Chase coming out of LSU. He

1111
00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,880
Speaker 1: was so good after the catch because it's not just

1112
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 1: speed with him, it's body power and the ability to

1113
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:45,000
Speaker 1: break tackles and create Boote has that as well, so

1114
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,319
Speaker 1: he can take a simple screen and break a few

1115
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: tackles and turn it into a forty yard gain. So

1116
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 1: the agility, the acceleration, the body type, all are things

1117
00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 1: that you really like about him. It's just you want

1118
00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 1: to see him be more consistent catching the football. You

1119
00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:03,480
Speaker 1: want to see him be better in contested situations. Um,

1120
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:05,319
Speaker 1: it's just you know, it's it's gonna be a lot

1121
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:08,920
Speaker 1: of a lot of question marks that teams have that

1122
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:11,520
Speaker 1: they're hopefully going to get answered at the combine. Like

1123
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:14,040
Speaker 1: I said, he's just a wild card going into the process.

1124
00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:17,080
Speaker 1: That's what I got written down said I said, don't

1125
00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:20,000
Speaker 1: like how he played through contact. Like That's what I said,

1126
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:23,000
Speaker 1: is um, And that's I mean, I guess that's something

1127
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:24,960
Speaker 1: that's similar kind of what you were saying, is like

1128
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 1: the inconsistency is there's like there's times I was watching

1129
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,200
Speaker 1: him and I was like, Okay, I see him, Okay,

1130
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:33,000
Speaker 1: where is here? I haven't seen him for like ten minutes,

1131
00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 1: you know, so um And I don't know if that's

1132
00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:37,360
Speaker 1: play design, if that's how that is, but I just

1133
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:41,160
Speaker 1: want him to be more, to insert himself more, you know,

1134
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:43,960
Speaker 1: just to be more present you know through if through

1135
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:46,440
Speaker 1: through plays, if that's the way to worth that. So

1136
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:48,560
Speaker 1: that's what I had written down for him. Yeah, I

1137
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 1: don't have a whole bunch from him yet. And there's

1138
00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:52,200
Speaker 1: some off the field concerns. I think there's a couple

1139
00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 1: of things there that can maybe come into play at

1140
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:58,560
Speaker 1: some point. Overall, it's not even just that it's it's

1141
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:00,600
Speaker 1: on the field. There are question marks. He was in

1142
00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:03,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, there was arguments that he would be one

1143
00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 1: of the go to receivers in college football, and he's

1144
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:08,680
Speaker 1: had two years since then to try and live up

1145
00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:10,400
Speaker 1: to that billing, and he never really did. He was

1146
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 1: a solid receiver, had production, but never really found a

1147
00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 1: stride enough to really raise his draft stocking up to

1148
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:20,920
Speaker 1: where people could be excited about taking him in the

1149
00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:23,200
Speaker 1: top fifty, which is where his talent and his ceiling

1150
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,360
Speaker 1: could potentially land him, but that's going to do it

1151
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,320
Speaker 1: for us here on the Draft show, Dane, thanks so

1152
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 1: much for taking some time with us. This was a

1153
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: blast as always, and I'm sure we'll see a little

1154
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:34,840
Speaker 1: bit more down the line. We'll see in Indianapolis coming

1155
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:39,000
Speaker 1: up in a couple of weeks. Right, absolutely, no, this

1156
00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:41,560
Speaker 1: is absolutely my pleasure. I appreciate you guys having me on.

1157
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:43,600
Speaker 1: Hopefully we can do it again. There you go check

1158
00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:45,600

1160
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:50,520
Speaker 1: the Beast? Are you stressing about it yet? Are you

1161
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 1: starting to sweat a little bit about that? When you

1162
00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:57,600
Speaker 1: kicked off the show saying how many DIAC until the Draft?

1163
00:57:56,840 --> 00:58:00,960
Speaker 1: I got stressed out a little bit myself, I know,

1164
00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:04,520
Speaker 1: right right, maybe I should take that out that that

1165
00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:10,720
Speaker 1: was a stressor Yeah, you know, yeah, it's a team.

Speaker 1: It'll be here before we know it. So it's gets
