I know it's 21 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: draft month, Bucky, but it's it's not that serious to 22 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: where you have to go from your your your background 23 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: to that. I mean, you don't have to outdo us 24 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 1: like that. I mean a little moonlighting. So here at 25 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: a Filmpdia's studios and so yeah, I got a nice backdrop. 26 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: It looks like my home office is all of a 27 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: sudden a new decorps. Katie. You're trying to keep up, 28 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: I think at this point right oh absolutely, It's it's 29 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: pretty wild. I'm kind of tripping out because I always 30 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: see Bucky on TV like all the time. Like I 31 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: was like, oh, all right, new show Bucky this week. 32 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: This is awesome. But Bucky's like, all way, Bucky might 33 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: be on TV behind me right now. Like it's a 34 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: good bit doing something and it's pretty incredible, you know, Dave. 35 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,519 Speaker 1: I saw Kyle Kyle, you were doing play by play 36 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: of the unt basketball games and the Comfort USA Tournament. 37 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 1: I was like, all these people I work with you 38 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: are doing cool things and then spare then there's me. No, no, 39 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: I'm with you, man. I'm just alternating between the studio 40 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: and my couch. That's I'm laughing at Kyle because he's like, 41 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: it's it's Draft month, it's getting close, and I'm like, 42 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 1: we gotta do this for another month yet, Like I'm 43 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I love the draft, don't mistake me. But 44 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: like I'm reaching that point in the process where, you know, 45 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: we've been talking about this since before New Year's and 46 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: now like everybody else is jumping into the into the pool, 47 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: like all the casuals, if you will, the casuals now, 48 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: you know, free agency's over and everybody's got to take now. 49 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: And I'm just like, I don't want to hear it 50 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: from y'all, Like leave the draft to the draft people, 51 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 1: and y'all go worry about something else. See. And that's 52 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 1: the fun part about it is because most of the 53 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: listeners to this show have been with us since de 54 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: sim I'm not talking to you if you're listening to 55 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,679 Speaker 1: the Draft Show. If you're listening to the Draft Show, 56 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: you're good. I'm talking to like, you know, like we 57 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: just National TV is just that all these pro days. Yeah, 58 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 1: my Twitter timeline is full of people that are like, oh, 59 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: this this Kyle Pitts guy seems talented and like oh 60 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: really tell me more. Come on all right anyway, ran see. 61 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: And that's the good part about being in the position 62 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: that we're in is because we we have we want 63 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: people to come and be a part of the draft nation, 64 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: right like you want people to come in and be 65 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: a part of the deep draft analysis that we have. 66 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: And at the same time, there's gonna be names that 67 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: they've never heard of on Draft Day that we're gonna 68 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: be like, Oh, yeah, I've loved that guy since November 69 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: like that, that's been a guy that we've really been tabbed. 70 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: But Kat came up with a great idea in our 71 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: group message, and we want to give love to the 72 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: guys who haven't necessarily gotten that same kind of love. 73 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: Not necessarily a Day three pick. We're not necessarily talking 74 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: about guys that are that are lower tier players like 75 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: these sleepers, these pet cats. We're talking about guys who 76 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: are really really good players but maybe don't get the 77 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: pub as we talk about maybe a Kyle Pitts or 78 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: any of the guys that are on the Draft magazine 79 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: that you can also get on Dallas Cowboys dot com 80 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: plug but any of those guys that you may not 81 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: hear us talk about a ton, but we definitely deserve 82 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: to talk about So, Katie, I know you've got a 83 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: name already lined up or a couple names already lined up. 84 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 1: How about you start us off. Tell me about a 85 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,679 Speaker 1: guy that's been under the radar in terms of talking 86 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: about them, but it's definitely not under the radar in 87 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: terms of the talent that he brings. Yeah. No, no, 88 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: I've got a few names that. Look, I think some 89 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: of these guys might even be household names, or at 90 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: least to those who follow the draft quite closely. And 91 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: I know that we don't talk about running backs a ton, 92 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: especially when the Cowboys are kind of set it running back, 93 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: but we do cover the entire draft here of the 94 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: Draft show as well, And like I know, Javontay Williams 95 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: from North Carolina is awesome and some of the most 96 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: fun tape I've ever watched. And you just don't hear 97 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: people talking about a much unless you get into a deep, 98 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: you know, running back discussion. And I just think javont 99 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: Williams from North Carolina needs to be talked about more 100 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: because that guy's awesome. I know, my part of it 101 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: might be because he's Michael Carter, you know, his buddy 102 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: at North Carolina is getting some shine too, and he's 103 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: a heck of a runner in his own right. But 104 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: I just think Javonta Williams is special, and I'm not 105 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 1: sure people were talking about him like that. Would you 106 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: guys agree at all? You know, here's the funny thing. 107 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: Haven't gone to North Carolina watched all the games this year. 108 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: It's remarkable that this was a guy that was more 109 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: of a walk on candidate. He's a guy to play 110 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: linebacker primarily in high school, he was valedictorian. He had 111 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: offers from the likes of Harvard and Yale, and yet 112 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: he ends up at North Carolina and he becomes this beast. 113 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,559 Speaker 1: And so when you look at him and Michael Carter, 114 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: Javonte Williams push the ball into pain And to me, 115 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: he's a quintessential prototypical number one running back that can 116 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: run it. He can do an inside and outside. He 117 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 1: has bursts, he can go with power or finest, and 118 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,479 Speaker 1: he can catch the ball out of the backfield. I 119 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: think his best game is at the next level because 120 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: I think he is an NFL running back when you 121 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: look at him. That raises an interesting question, and I 122 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: love the concept of this is like, we're definitely not 123 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: talking about sleepers. No, we're talking I mean, he's going 124 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: to be the first or second running back drafting, But 125 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: Naji Harris is a much more well known name. And yeah, 126 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: I'm curious how y'all compare those two because I think 127 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: any you know, anybody that follows college football or the 128 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: draft knows about Naji and maybe not Williams. So I'm 129 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 1: just curious. It's interesting because I think you start with 130 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,479 Speaker 1: running backs now, and as we've gone down this path 131 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: over the past few years of I mean, I think 132 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 1: devaluing the running backs a little too harsh. But maybe 133 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: when it does come to draft inventory, I feel like 134 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: you don't see the Cowboys maybe one of the last 135 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: teams to draft running back in the top five, Like, 136 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: you may not see this a ton moving forward. I 137 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: was started thinking the other day. I was asking myself, 138 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: are we talking about, like if I had to do 139 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 1: the prop bet thing, are we talking about one and 140 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: over under one and a half running backs drafted in 141 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: the first round? That probably the number, But running backs 142 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: they think are an excellent pick in the first round 143 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: for those teams who were close and have a good 144 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: roster and are picking on the back end of the 145 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: first rateity. I mean, we saw it last year. Kansas 146 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: City took Clyde Edwards Hilaria of LSU and unfortunately he 147 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: got hurt. But you know, I was I was like 148 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: kind of shocked to see a team like Green Band 149 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: when they signed Aaron Jones, so they were picking at thirty. 150 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: I was like, you can kind of just pop it 151 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: on the running back right there, not that Aaron Jones. 152 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: You know, do you pay your guys who you think 153 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: are good players. But I said, though, it was really 154 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: interesting that we might be looking at a draft with 155 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: maybe just one running back take it in the first 156 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: round this year, maybe two depending on who I was 157 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: etn as well, And I just kind of think Javonte 158 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: Williams deserves to be in that discussion with Harris and 159 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: Eten personally. You know, KT is funny because I think 160 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: when you talk to people inside, they believe Javontay Williams 161 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: is not only in that discussion, but there's some that 162 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: believe he is number one in that discussion, and so 163 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: it wouldn't be a surprise if he does come off 164 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: the board before Naja, Harris and Etienne. I think to 165 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: think about Naja Harris. I actually feel like, even though 166 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: Naja Harris has talked about, I feel like his game 167 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: is underappreciated because most and most times, or maybe in 168 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,559 Speaker 1: old school football, when you see someone of his size 169 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: who can run with power, who also can go outside 170 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: and catch the ball. We were talking about him like 171 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: we used to rave about Levyan Bill in his prime, 172 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: because I see Naja Harris not as a Levyan Bill 173 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 1: player in terms stylistically, He's more like Matt Forte. But 174 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: he's still talking about and RB one wide receiver two, 175 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: someone who can maybe put up twelve to thirteen hundred 176 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: rushing yards and also give you seventy five to eighty 177 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: catches if you want to utilize him in that and 178 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: that life. Now, Bucky, do you think that's kind of 179 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: a direct correspondent with how the running back position is 180 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: going in today's NFL. Because he's a hell of a player. 181 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at any college football game and 182 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: any time that he was on the field, he was dominant. 183 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: I mean, he goes out and he's just a physical freak. 184 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: Like you said, his versatility as a receiver along with 185 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: being a tailback is something that teams are going to 186 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: value whenever he gets to the NFL. But is it 187 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: just because of the running back position, maybe the shelf life, 188 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: maybe things like that. In the way that the NFL 189 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: game is going that kind of devalues the way that 190 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: we talk about Najia Harris from a draft standpoint, well, 191 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: I think I think the drumbeat has gotten loud on 192 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: the outside, Like when you have what they call him, 193 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: the nerds or the quants talking about the analytics will 194 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: say that you can get a running back anywhere. I 195 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: believe it's really this. It depends how you want to 196 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 1: build your team, because I would say it's better to 197 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: draft the running back in the first realm, but never 198 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: pay him after that original rookie deal, meaning draft him, 199 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: signed him on franchise tags, and extended that way because 200 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: that's the most cost effective model. The other thing people 201 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: are doing is because they've seen the Shanahan's have success 202 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: kind of finding running backs anywhere and everywhere. There's a 203 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: belief that you can find those guys anywhere and everywhere. 204 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: The true sweet spot were running backs the second and 205 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: third round. If you look at the majority of the 206 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl players, they've come from the second and third 207 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: round when it comes to the running back position. You 208 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: know another player that I have in this boat of 209 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: you know, guys that I think deserve to get a 210 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: little more pub nationally. You know, I think we've seen 211 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: him as a good player, and this will kind of 212 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: get Cowboys fans involved because they don't need a cornerback. 213 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: But Eric Stokes of Georgia. I really like Eric Stokes 214 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 1: of Georgia. Only sixteen receptions allowed last year and the 215 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: longest passing gave up was eighteen yards. And I know 216 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: part of maybe this might be kind of the Javonte 217 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: Williams thing and that he's got a teammate who's gonna 218 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: get drafted at the same position, Tyson Campbell. But I 219 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: think Eric Stokes needs to be talked about a lot 220 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: more because I really don't think he makes it to 221 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: forty four where the Cowboys picking the second round. I 222 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: love that thought process because that's on it. Like when 223 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: you told me this idea, that's and I'll get to 224 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: a guy that I want to talk about in a 225 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: sec but you know, you just kind of get sidetracked 226 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: in the conversation. I mean, and rightfully so. With all 227 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: these great cornerbacks that are available to you at the 228 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: top of the draft. But I wonder if sometimes we 229 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: get tunnel vision with the idea like locking in on 230 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: that tenth pick, and it's like, I mean, you're picking 231 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 1: in the top fifty in the second round, like they're 232 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,839 Speaker 1: going to be really good prospects available and a few corners. 233 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I've brought up Tyson Campbell on you know, 234 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: with Bucky and Brian more times than I can count, 235 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: so I won't do it here, but both of both 236 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: of those guys honestly underrated players, multi year starters in 237 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: the SEC. And yeah, I think that's that's the only 238 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: worry there is. He might be so good that he 239 00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: doesn't even last to you in the second round. Well 240 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: kind of interesting too because we talk about guys like 241 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: Elijah Molden, Greg Newson, Tyson Campbell, and we kind of 242 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: mentioned those names on in multiple times, but Stokes is 243 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: one of the guys that kind of gets left out. So, Katie, 244 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: whenever you're talking about Stokes, what's different about him to 245 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: wear Cowboys fans? If he were to be a pick 246 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: at forty four, what would get you excited about it? 247 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: I have him as my fifth rated corner, but I 248 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: want to hear what you have to say about what 249 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: he brings. That's a little bit different than maybe some 250 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: of the guys we have mentioned. No, no, absolutely, And 251 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: I think first of all, his speed stands out. We 252 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: didn't need to see his pro date time to know 253 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: that he's fast, true, very fast player. I think with him, 254 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: you do. He might be a little and I think 255 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: slight maybe maybe too negative of a word, but you 256 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: would like him maybe to get off blocks a little 257 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: bit better on the outside and things like that. Like 258 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: I don't think he is a bad tackler. I think 259 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: he tries, but I wouldn't, you know, call him a 260 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: good tackler either, And that's very important to me when 261 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: building a team, is you know, tackling getting the guys 262 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: to the ground. But I think he just does a 263 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: really good job of anticipating routes and things like that. 264 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: We know the straight line speed is there. I think 265 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,439 Speaker 1: he showed that he's able to fight through traffic when 266 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: he's carrying a man across the field. Again, the Tyson 267 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: Campbell traits do jump out and you go, WHOA, I 268 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: see it. But I think Eric Stokes is a little better, 269 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: more polished corner right now. And maybe even a safer 270 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: pick if you want to say that. I think Eric 271 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: Stokes looks very qualified and prepared and does a good 272 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: job of playing the ball down the field and things 273 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,319 Speaker 1: like that and finding the ball, and I really, you know, 274 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: kind of value that. And you know, again, it's not 275 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: like he's a like we're talking about this guy like 276 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: he's a sleeper or anything, because I think we're talking 277 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: about ten cornerbacks that go in the top sixty. I 278 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: think that's very possible. Yeah, and I think he deserves 279 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 1: to be one of those first few guys. I think. 280 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I've got him his cornerback four, so you know, 281 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: this is this is where it kind of gets a 282 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: lot of fun I have admittedly dropped Farley because of 283 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: the back thing, but I think Eric Stokes, I feel 284 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: like he's kind of flying under the radar. Are a 285 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: tad because, like you said, we're talking about Molden. We 286 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 1: talked about him all the time. Aaron Robinson might be 287 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: another guy from Central Florida that maybe it's kind of 288 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: getting glossed over a little bit. Yeah, I think it's 289 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: funny when we look at these cornerbacks right the depth 290 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: in this year's class to me wide receiver, running backs, 291 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: and cornerbacks. I believe that if you need those guys, 292 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: that you could bypass those positions in the first round 293 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: and get comfortable value in the second and third rounds 294 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: and a lot of it. As it relates to the Cowboys, 295 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: you know, we've kind of been pigeonholding the thinking that 296 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: they have to take a corner at ten. But really, 297 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: when we think about this system that dan Quinn is 298 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: bringing in, it's a cover three system. It's really a 299 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: zone system with some man stuff or whatever. So how 300 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: much value do they put in that position in terms 301 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: of draft capital? Can you find someone who has long 302 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: range you with ball skills in the second and third 303 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: round that command that and maybe you use that tenth 304 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: pick to get a pass rusher, to get a a 305 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: playmaker on offense and office alignment or whatever that is. 306 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: I do want to internally how it stacks in the 307 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: war room the priority positions. Yeah, and we've kind of 308 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: I mean, that's been the debate that we've had. I 309 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: think around this show and around the building. Is is 310 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: it okay to be pigeonholed for a corner at ten? 311 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: Is it okay for that? But I mean I don't 312 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: think it's okay to be pigeonholed anywhere whenever it comes 313 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: to the drafts, especially with a premium pig. Yeah, but 314 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: I mean you just are always looking at where the 315 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: value lines up, and that's and so I want to 316 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: bring this guy up because you know, we talk about dbs, 317 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 1: we talk about tackles, tight ends, and I think I 318 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: don't want to speak for everybody. I've talked about this 319 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: on Twitter a lot, like, is there is there a 320 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: pass rusher at ten that you would feel great about 321 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys drafting? No? I don't know. So yeah, Bucky, 322 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: do you agree? Now? I don't. I don't think there's 323 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: one word be in a top ten s election, So okay, 324 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: and I so we're all in agreement there. So now 325 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 1: I'm thinking where might you be able to find one? 326 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: And that's where this guy comes back into play. He's 327 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: definitely like he's a known name. And I feel like 328 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: this happens every year we zero in on the Senior 329 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: Bowl guys. We get really excited about the Senior Bowl guys, 330 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: but the vast majority of the best prospects are not 331 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 1: They're underclass so we get distracted by all of these 332 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: other great underclassmen players and the Senior Bowl guys kind 333 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: of fall by the wayside. And that's how I'm feeling 334 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 1: about Carlos Basham right now, because I thought he's one 335 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: of the first things we mentioned. He was he was 336 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: in the first group of players that we mentioned. But 337 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: have we talked about him a lot ever since? Probably not. No, 338 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: he bullied Trey Smith at the Senior Bowl, Like I thought, 339 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: he looked really good in the practice footage that I 340 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: was able to watch from my couch. I didn't get 341 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: to go to Mobile this year. And then he shows 342 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: up at his pro day, and I know you can't 343 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 1: completely trust these times and things at pros because it's 344 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: not electronic, but like an unofficial four or five nine 345 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: in the forty had a nice three cone thirty four 346 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: inch vert, Like I feel like the book on this 347 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: guy was that he's like a try hard guy, but 348 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: not a super good athlete. The numbers are athletic, The 349 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: numbers seem to disagree with that. So now I'm sitting 350 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: here thinking like, could this be a really nice pick 351 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 1: to make it forty four if he even lasts that long. 352 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 1: You know, the funny thing is I can't really understand 353 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: why Boogie Basham has not been talked about more is 354 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: one of the conversations that I've had with people like 355 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: and for whatever reason, the love on the streets hasn't 356 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 1: been out there as heavy as you would like to think, 357 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 1: because last year, when I looked at him, when I 358 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: thought he was coming out, I thought the dude was 359 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: like one of the best that I've seen in terms 360 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: of his hand skills and being able to make it 361 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: happen turning speed in the power and then when you 362 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: think about the versatility, the twitch, the fact that he 363 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: not only is explosive with twitch but also as a 364 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: high mortar guy, there's a lot to like about him. 365 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: And so I can't understand why he is underrated and 366 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 1: not really discussed as one of the top guys because 367 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 1: all the things that you look at, you just check 368 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: off all the boxes he would he should be someone 369 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 1: that we talk about as a first round prospect, but 370 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 1: we're not. I agree, And that's another name like I'm 371 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 1: That's why I wanted to do this exercise, because I mean, 372 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: he's a guy. I think if you're picking at forty 373 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: four where the Cowboys are, he's a guy you might 374 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: circle and go, you know what, let's let's spend some 375 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: inventory and let's move up because he's not getting to 376 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: you at forty four. I don't I don't see that happening. 377 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: I would be I would be shocked if that happened. 378 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: And that's right, kind of go okay, well how far 379 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: does he fall? Do you want to get up to 380 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: the mid thirties? And that would you know, that would 381 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: cost you a little bit. That might cost you your 382 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 1: third round pick or maybe cost you your your second 383 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: third round pick at pick ninety nine. You kind of 384 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: jumped those together. Maybe you can get up into the 385 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: thirties and maybe he's there. So that's a that's a 386 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: name of that you brought up, Dave. That's this is 387 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 1: a success story. The second idea A success story. Oh 388 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: I like this because you're just sitting around talking about guys. 389 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 1: Can you see all your ideas are good? Yeah? Or 390 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: most of them? Anyway? Thank you? Now, yeah you should uh, 391 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: you should tell my family that they don't tell you. 392 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 1: Totally believe that, but yes, that's gracious. Now, yeah, did 393 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: uh kind of going off of boogie basham and kind 394 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 1: of that edge rusher thought mentality. I mean, we've talked 395 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: a lot about corners, and we've talked a lot about 396 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: offensive tackles in the first round and then maybe trying 397 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 1: to address it later on. But edge Rusher hasn't been 398 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: up there. But we've also I don't know if it 399 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: was on this show or if it was on any 400 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: of the other shows that I do, whatever it is, 401 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: but we've talked about are we sold on DeMarcus Lawrence 402 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: and Randy Gregory because after that there's not a whole 403 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: lot which there's not a lot of depth there. There's 404 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: not ironically, like the next best thing behind those two 405 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: is Carlos Basham's cousin, ye Terrell Basham, So hey, maybe 406 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: maybe we could have a family reunion. Yeah, well, and 407 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: there's the addition of Basham. I know, Brent Urban might 408 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: come in and play a little bit of edge, but 409 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: ultimately you would like him as maybe your nose or 410 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 1: your three technique. I mean either either way. You kind 411 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: of want him in the middle of the line. But 412 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: he's your Tyrone Crawford. He's somebody who could bounce back 413 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: and forth and maybe play a little bit of edge 414 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: for you. However, I mean outside of Randy Gregory and 415 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: outside of DeMarcus Lawrence. It's what Bradley and I and 416 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: Terrell basham right now. Yeah, I feel great about Tank 417 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: and Randy after that, No, it's not great. And you know, 418 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: obviously Durance arnstrong. Yeah, I think things of I mean, 419 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: you know, I expect Randy to be available, but the 420 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: fact of the matter is I don't believe he's ever 421 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: played in sixteen games in his career. So love Randy, 422 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: and I think his arrow is pointing up, but it's 423 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: something you need to think about that, you know. I 424 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: feel like people fall into this trap of thinking that 425 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: he's an all pro and as great as he looked 426 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,640 Speaker 1: at times last year, I don't think he's there yet. 427 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: And then I think Tank is way underrated. I think 428 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: he catches a little bit too much flak from people. 429 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, he's had plenty of his own injury issues, 430 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: whether it's shoulder or back, you name it. So I 431 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: would absolutely love to beef up the depth there. Yeah, 432 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: they've beefed up to depth on the defensive line, but 433 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,479 Speaker 1: just not a lot at er, not as much as 434 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: you would really like. And it's kind of been with 435 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 1: moves that we've really anticipated. Bucky. Yeah, when I think 436 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: about dan Quinn's defense. I'm really trying to figure out 437 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: who fits what role. Because you have the LEO, who 438 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: is the guy that is the active he can be 439 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: the undersized guy, which is more probably like Randy Gregory, 440 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: but you need to have another another guy that could 441 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: play that role because I don't think you can put 442 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: all of your eggs in the Randy Gregory best exactly. 443 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: And so Basham, you know Basham coming over for the Jets. 444 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: He's a high mortar gup. He's never put up big 445 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,959 Speaker 1: numbers and when it comes to sack production. So I 446 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 1: believe somewhere in the draft they have to find another 447 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: guy who can play their role as the designated pass rusher. 448 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:12,880 Speaker 1: And so whether it's um Chris Rump from Duke or 449 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: I got like Patrick Jones from Pittsburgh, there has to 450 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: be someone that if they can't get a person early 451 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: in the first round of the second round, it has 452 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: to be someone that you can target in the third 453 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: round that can give them some pass rushability and maybe 454 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: outplay their draft status because they're playing in a role 455 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: that is just catered to the skills that they have developed. 456 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: Right now, I'm glad you brought up Chris rump Bucky 457 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: because that's a that's a fun watch right there too, 458 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: just flying around the end and sometimes he can doesn't 459 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: take much to push him down, but he's that guy 460 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: is awesome. Um, his dad's a coach. I mean, he 461 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: knows what he's doing. That's that's a good player man, 462 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: good situational bass rusher. I like that him. Some of 463 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 1: those duke guys. I mean, there's a duke tight end. 464 00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: Noah Gray that I know is getting a lot of pubs, 465 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: and Bucky you really liked in the Draft magazine. But 466 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: I do want to talk about a tight end really quickly. 467 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 1: And this once again might not be exactly what the 468 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: Cowboys fans are looking for right now. But there was 469 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: storylines this past week about Brevin Jordan from Miami, and 470 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: he brought up the storyline was the fact that at 471 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 1: his pro day, which was a decent pro day, came 472 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 1: out and said the Cowboys are in love with me, 473 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: they love me, talking about how infatuated the Dallas Cowboys are, 474 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: which kind of threw me and Dave for a loop. 475 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,160 Speaker 1: We were sitting upstairs and we just kind of looked 476 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 1: at each other and like, wait, hold up, do we 477 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: need to look at tight end a little bit more here. 478 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: That's my question to you guys. Do we need to 479 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 1: look at tight end a little bit more here out 480 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 1: of these maybe undersung prospects that we didn't necessarily talk 481 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: about previously. I will be marketing genius. I'll be one 482 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 1: hundred percent on us with you, like please the depth 483 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: of my Like I've been so fixated on Kyle Pitts 484 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: that that's about where my tight end the same investigation stops. 485 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: And I don't wait. So at the same time, I 486 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: think two things, like, tight end is a position. Teams 487 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 1: love to draft tight ends because like they can play 488 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 1: special teams, they can block a lot of things. Guy 489 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 1: John McKeon last year played a lot of time made 490 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: mckun made the roster as an undrafted free agent because 491 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: of how versatile and valuably is. So with ten picks, 492 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 1: I could absolutely see them drafting a guy. I just wonder, 493 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 1: unless it's Kyle Pits, which we don't have to do 494 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 1: that right now. But I just wonder how much bang 495 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 1: for your buck you're really getting spending, you know, if 496 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: you want to draft a guy like in a six 497 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,959 Speaker 1: or seventh round just to make the team. Whatever. But 498 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: I think Blake Jarwin and Dalton Schultz is a pretty 499 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 1: damn good duo. And you know Sean mcun we haven't 500 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: seen much of him, but he was good enough to 501 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 1: make the team as a rookie. I don't see why 502 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 1: he can't be your third. I would rather just add 503 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,959 Speaker 1: a cheap resource to the back end of that. Unless 504 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:59,239 Speaker 1: I would rather either like buy the Lamborghini, like just 505 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: go whole, I can do it right, or just worry 506 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: about it later. That's kind of where I am. I 507 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: don't know about y'all, all right, So so here's my thing, 508 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: and I don't want to be negative Nancy Day, but 509 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: I please do it. So so the thing with cal Pits, 510 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: which I like, right like? I like cal Pits. I 511 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 1: think he's a unique weapon and offensive playmaker in those things. However, 512 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: when we've talked about these type guys being drafted early, 513 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: more times than not, they've not been what we expected. 514 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 1: So if we're going to top ten, we think about 515 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 1: t J. Hockinson wasn't in this category, but TJ. Hockinson 516 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: at eight, we haven't got return on an investment. If 517 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: you're the Detroit Lions, you go all the way back 518 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: to Eric Ebron coming out of North Carolina. He was 519 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: effected to be one of these guys, a jumbow wide 520 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 1: receiver to make an impact. It hasn't happened. When you 521 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 1: look at the All Pro players or the Pro Bowl 522 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 1: players at the position. George Kittle was a fifth round pick. 523 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,120 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey, if I'm not mistaken, was a fifth round pick. 524 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: Darren was a six round pick that was a wide 525 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: receiver in college. So maybe, just maybe we should investigate 526 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: the lower round guys because it appears that those are 527 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 1: the guys that are really making it happen as opposed 528 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: to the guys that we are falling in love with 529 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 1: at the top of the board. That that is the 530 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: one thing. Sorry, sorry, Katie. I'll let you real quick, 531 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 1: go Dave, this is you. It is that's the one 532 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 1: thing that scares me about Kyle Pitts. I mean, the 533 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: track records not great. But you always say, don't scout 534 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 1: the helmet, and I like scout. Yeah, I don't. I 535 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: don't know if it's Kyle Pitts's fault that some of 536 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: those guys haven't worked out. But what do you think, Katy? 537 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: Oh No, I mean, look, I think at ten I'm 538 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 1: not interested in getting cute. I put a board together. 539 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: I have a best player. I take that best player 540 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 1: at ten now down the road, though Bucky's right to exill. 541 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 1: First of all, let me get this out of the 542 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: way on Brevin Jordan's marketing genius. All of these kids 543 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: should say the Cowboys in love with them. They could 544 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: have no contact with the Cowboys whatsoever. Yes, of course, 545 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 1: the world's most valued franchise. Yeah, they love me. Yes, 546 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: smart like that makes him a good candidate. I have 547 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,199 Speaker 1: Rerevin Jordan is tied in four for me, and I 548 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,120 Speaker 1: really like Rerevin Jordan. I really like the Notre Dame kid, 549 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,439 Speaker 1: Tommy tremble Um. I think he is like a better 550 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:23,400 Speaker 1: Joseph Deguara from Cincinnati. And that's probably not a household name, 551 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 1: but Deguara I caught everyone's attention last year. Hey can 552 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: use him. I just think he's better than him too. 553 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: And you know, I don't know how to say his 554 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: last name, but the Penn State kid Pat oh, yeah, Friarmouth. 555 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,880 Speaker 1: It's just a hard name to say, um, but yeah, yeah, 556 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 1: you're right name. I don't order the Pitts thing here 557 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: that that'd be what I don't want to do the 558 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: Pitts thing here. You're right, but I'd still go ahead 559 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: and rip the band aid off because I just look 560 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: at my personal rankings and God knows what the Cowboys 561 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: are gonna have. But I do I have Pitts graded 562 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: higher than Sir Tan, I do. I have Pitts graded 563 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: higher than Sewell. I do. I've been scrated higher than Slater, 564 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: I do. And that's where it kind of goes. You know, 565 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: I'd probably gotta do it right. But that's the whole thing. 566 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: Like at ten, I don't want you guys like overthinking it. 567 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 1: Just cheers what we got. Let's do it. We're doing it. 568 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: We're all in. But you know what's gonna happen in 569 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys Country? If we start talking about day two tight ends, 570 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: the words Gavin Escobar is gonna get thrown out. It's 571 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 1: just it's gonna happen. Poor kids won't be wearing that. So, 572 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: so if the Cowboys did a Day two tight end 573 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 1: like that, poor kid didn't have a chance because the 574 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: fans were just gonna call him Gavin Escobar. I will 575 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: say this, I think a lot of it depends on 576 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: if the Cowboys go back into the tight end pool 577 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: a lot of it to me. Will tell me if 578 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy is taking maybe a bigger interest in the offense. 579 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: If you go back and look at what he did 580 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: in Green Bay, he was big on always having two 581 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: tight ends on the field. And those tight ends were 582 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: not necessarily traditional tight ends. They were the jumble wide 583 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: receiver types because they would go empty formation and make 584 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: you show your hand to make the game easy for 585 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: the quarterback. And I'm not saying that now because they 586 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: pay Dak Prescott that they're going to justify paying him 587 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: big money. But we've talked about it. We've talked about 588 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: the strength of the team is the offense, and we 589 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: can talk about, oh, we got to improve the defense. 590 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: But the one thing I know, if you put points 591 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: on the field, you make opponents one dimensional on offense 592 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: because now they're chasing points and so if they go 593 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 1: all in on this offensive approach, I do believe adding 594 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: another tight end is sensible because you want to have 595 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: the ability to dictate the terms of variety of ways. 596 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: Let's go eleven personnel, let's go twelve personnel. Hey, let's 597 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: take all the running backs off the field. Let's go 598 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: two tight ends, three wide outs. Let's see how they 599 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: react to it. How creative do they want to get 600 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: with the offense? I think a lot of it depends 601 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: on how Mike McCarthy viewsed his team and how he 602 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: used the best course of action when it comes to 603 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: winning a bunch of games. It's one of Dave's favorite 604 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: things to hear, is twelve personnel depend You know what 605 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: twelve personnel used to really piss me off? Yeah? I know, 606 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: but why that's what I said? It may like it. 607 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: It bothers me a lot less now that I think 608 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have two decent catching tight end Okay, I don't. 609 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: I don't even want to say his name again. But 610 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: if they draft that guy, I'll like it even more. 611 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: I promise sit the guy out of Florida. Yeah, that's okay, 612 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: just want one that's interesting. By the way, Bucky earlier 613 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: when he was like, yeah, he's a good player, Like 614 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: he's he's good. I like him, that was like probably 615 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: the worst I've heard anybody ever talk about Kyle Pitts, 616 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: because usually it's like this guy's so like, this guy's unbelievable, 617 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: and Bucky was just, I mean, he's he's a he's 618 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: a freak athlete. But what I believe most people, most 619 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: play callers, don't know how to utilize the tide end. 620 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 1: So we can talk about him being a great athlete 621 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: or whatever, and there's been a conversation where hey, maybe 622 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: he's a Julio Jones Megatron type that you put out 623 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: wide and he plays and those things. Most guys don't 624 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: have the capacity to find or create a playbook or 625 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: a game plan that really maximizes the tied end. And 626 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: so I think this is where we got to scout 627 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: the play caller. Does your play caller have a track 628 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 1: record of being able to get the tied end loose? 629 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,959 Speaker 1: Because if he doesn't, then Kyle Pitts is a wasted 630 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: draft pick because you don't maximize who he is. We 631 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: talked about North North Fan goes to Denver and he's 632 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: all right, yeah, you know, like so I just want 633 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 1: him if he's going, if he's going to be what 634 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: we say he is, I just would like to see 635 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 1: him go to a place that can utilize him and 636 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: elevate him the way that his talents would suggest that 637 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: he should be elevated. Another show, another draft show dominated 638 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: by Kyle Pitts, which is gonna happen. I think up 639 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: until I feel guilty, but at the same time I don't. 640 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: We have to. You have to over overturn every rocky 641 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: potentially can. We're gonna overturn all of our rocks and 642 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: go and try and take a break.

Dave Hellman did 686 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 1: a mock draft and it really had that age that'll 687 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: age well. I'm sure I think it's pretty good. You 688 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: and I were talking about it the other day. I 689 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: was like, this looks like it's one hundred percent accurate 690 00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: all the way through. All thirty two picks I thought 691 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: were as accurate as can be. So go check it 692 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: out Dallas Cowboys dot Com. I don't know if it's 693 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: on sale at this very moment, but coming up they 694 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 1: will definitely be on sale. So while we get a 695 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 1: chance to hit the sounder, let's go into Twitter. On 696 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: the twenty on the Twitter, Chris Beam as always doing 697 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,359 Speaker 1: fantastic work in the back. So first question here, this 698 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: is kind of intriguing to me, and I know it'll 699 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 1: be intriguing to David Hellman as well. This comes from 700 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: Nolan Henderson. He said, if the Cowboys like the idea 701 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: of bringing in Keana'neil to play a little week sidelinebacker 702 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: and some strong safety and base packages, why not target 703 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: a guy like Jeremiah lusu Coamora from Notre Dame in 704 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: this draft. He was made in a lab for that 705 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,399 Speaker 1: type of work, and Neil is only on that one 706 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: year contract. There's all every year, every year there's a 707 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: guy that I absolutely love who just doesn't fit the 708 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys range. I guess, and I don't know. I go 709 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 1: back and forth on that because I'm the guy's a 710 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: great player and he can do a bunch of stuff 711 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: for you. Draft him, draft him. Yeah, Like you know, 712 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: people are always like, I don't know about ten, but 713 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,799 Speaker 1: I'd do it at sixteen. And it's like, really like 714 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 1: six picks is enough to get you to swing that wildly, 715 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 1: Which we've said that on this show before two about Jeremiah. Oh, absolutely, 716 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,399 Speaker 1: and I understand it to some degree. But I also 717 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: I think he's a hell of a player. I agree. 718 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: I agree with the question completely. You know, bring him like, yeah, 719 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 1: he could do he could do what Keyan O'Neil is 720 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 1: here to do. Absolutely, he could like he could play 721 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: some will, he could play safety down in the box. 722 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,399 Speaker 1: I'm not saying you would do it a lot, but 723 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 1: he's shown on tape that he can play in the 724 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 1: slot and help you deal with you know, receivers and 725 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: tight ends that are flexed out. And he just seems 726 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: like one of those modern players to me where you 727 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: don't like he doesn't have a position and he doesn't 728 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 1: need one. And I would probably draft him at ten. 729 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think the Cowboys would, but I 730 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 1: would consider it. I don't know what about y'all. I mean, 731 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 1: I think he's I think he's a talented player. I 732 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: think the main thing is like the measurements, like how 733 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: big is he? Where do you really fit him? It's 734 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 1: a bit like the Jeremy Chen Isaiah Simmons conversation when 735 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: you talk to people in Arizona before that where does 736 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,879 Speaker 1: he go? Because it's great to say that someone has 737 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 1: this flexibility and versatil they can play linebacker. They can 738 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 1: play safety, but at the end of the day, where 739 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: do they go for their position meetings because they have 740 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 1: to major in something before they can minor in the 741 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: other things. I think for Abusko moresy a guy that 742 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: can play in the box and be your linebacker in 743 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 1: the style of defense that you want to play, I 744 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 1: would say in Dallas, yes, because we saw them. We 745 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,799 Speaker 1: saw Dan Quinn take these light linebackers in Atlanta and 746 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 1: have success, So I think he absolutely can do it. 747 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 1: I think the fascination with Keyan O'Neil they're trying to 748 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 1: jump start the defense right now. You bring Kaze over, 749 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: you bring in Keyan O'Neill over. You're trying to get 750 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 1: guys on the field who don't require it's learning and 751 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,440 Speaker 1: we can get it and go. And I said, I 752 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: think data's philosophy. So I don't know if you'll use 753 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,800 Speaker 1: the tenth pick on the guy, but he's fantastic. It 754 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 1: would get somebody off the field while while we're here. 755 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, interesting, No, while we're here though, him or J. C. Horne. 756 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 1: What do you do if let's say your guys or 757 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: ten and he's not there at ten, which I think 758 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: could be very likely. I think that could happen Jay 759 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: okay or Horn wow? Or or or Parsons Oh wow, 760 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: A good another ringe. You gotta gotta make the call. 761 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 1: You can't trade back. What are you doing. I'll take 762 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. Wow. I think I would take jac Horn. 763 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: I think i'd take Horn. I think I would take 764 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:40,960 Speaker 1: Horn too. But I'm surprised, Bucky. I want you to 765 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 1: elaborate because I'm surprised you said Parsons there. I think 766 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 1: Parsons is a much better player than all I think 767 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: if you look at it, if we go back and 768 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: really look at the tape and ignore all the stuff 769 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 1: that kind of cloud of the evaluation about like oh, 770 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: they're character concerns or whatever, when you turn on the tape, 771 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: he's a dominant player. He's a top five player. If 772 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 1: you think about the way Devin White dominates the game 773 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in terms of being a 774 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 1: pass rushing inside linebacker. Michael Parsons can do all of that. 775 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 1: The stuff that he put on display at his Pro day. 776 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: And I'm not a Pro day guy, but someone two 777 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 1: and forty six pounds running forty three nine with the 778 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: stuff that he's put on tape as a pass Russia, 779 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: as a guy who plays like a bull in a 780 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: china shop. You sign me up for that. And going 781 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,320 Speaker 1: all the way back to what he was in high school, 782 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: he was a defensive end with his hand in the dirt. 783 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: And so when you think about creatively how you want 784 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: to maximize how we can get after the quarterback, well, 785 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: that guy can do it, and so I would take him. 786 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: I think with jac Horne in the debate that I've 787 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: had with Jac Horn over past or ten, j C. 788 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: Horne may be an extraordinary athlete, pass or ten is 789 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 1: a technician and a player, And depend upon where you 790 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 1: put those guys, they gonna have different levels of success. 791 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 1: And so at ten, I want to make sure that 792 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: I don't swing and miss. I think it's less likely 793 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 1: that I'm a swinging miss on Michael Parsons based on 794 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 1: his skill set and what is needed in Dallas. Interesting, 795 00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: you love it. That's interesting, Kat, You got out of 796 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: this without offering your opinion. Dang it, it's hoping I 797 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 1: can skate through there. No, it is interesting too when 798 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 1: you look at what the Cowboys situations, you obviously you're 799 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 1: drafting these guys for more than one year, but they 800 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: don't have to pick up the fifth year option of 801 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 1: Laton vander ash who has proven that he can't stay healthy. 802 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: Jalen Smith, you can still get out of his contract 803 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: next year. Like, it's not like he's here forever. So like, 804 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,800 Speaker 1: do you get any linebacker that high? I'm not completely 805 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 1: out on. I think I would probably tend to lean 806 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 1: towards Parsons as well. Maybe right there you're talking about 807 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: there's no doubt, and I love Jay okay, but there's 808 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:51,879 Speaker 1: no doubt. You are taking a bit of a leap 809 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 1: of faith that he can do what you want him 810 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 1: to do, or that you have an idea and that's 811 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 1: gonna work. But Parsons, there are numerous ways that he 812 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: can work, and I think that's the type of thing 813 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:03,879 Speaker 1: that that would really turn beyond to him right there. 814 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 1: And again I would it's not what I want at ten, 815 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,399 Speaker 1: but and I'm not huge I'm taking linebackers earlier. I'm 816 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: a big fan of of circling back and getting linebackers 817 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: on day two or even early day three who can 818 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 1: kind of run and play and things like that. But 819 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 1: I think right there at ten, if everything dries up, 820 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:24,479 Speaker 1: no one calls to move up to ten. I'm okay 821 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 1: with taking Parsons right there, nothing wrong with that because 822 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,479 Speaker 1: I want to I just want to have to don't 823 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: draft a linebacker early discussion because I'm trying to figure 824 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: out I was about this conversation because I've heard because 825 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 1: I'm not I've heard not only here, but i've heard 826 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: it so said I would say this about Yeah, I'll 827 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: say this about linebackers and those things. I think if 828 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: we go and look and look, the Pro Bowl is 829 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. But when you look at the elites 830 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 1: at the position, I think those linebackers are either first 831 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,399 Speaker 1: or second rounders. Like Darius Leonard is a little bit 832 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 1: of the outlier because he was two hundred and ten, 833 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 1: two hundred and fourteen poles in South Carolina State. But 834 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 1: when you look at that linebacker position, when you have one, 835 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 1: they change the game. I look at I mean, like 836 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 1: we bring up White again. White has been every bit 837 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: as good as we thought. And I'm gonna say at LSU, 838 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 1: I didn't know that he could get up to the 839 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,240 Speaker 1: passer like that. But when you look at the Super Bowl, 840 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 1: when they run, they hit people and they go down immediately, 841 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: and it changes the game. When you're playing coverage or whatever. Now, 842 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 1: I will say this, if you take a linebacker in 843 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 1: the first round and up high, they have to be 844 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:36,720 Speaker 1: able to impact the game. Not only is a run defendant, 845 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 1: they have to be able to do something in coverage. 846 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 1: And if they could offer blitzability, that is that. And 847 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,320 Speaker 1: so we didn't talk about this guy, but the Kentucky 848 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 1: linebacker John and Davis. Yeah, it's a name. I keep 849 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 1: We didn't talk about him. It's a name. Ike keep 850 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 1: hearing we did it. He popped to four three nine, 851 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,280 Speaker 1: And look, I hate to talk about the protect continually 852 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: kind of change his thing, but just look at the tape. 853 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 1: He is an a linebacker that is all over the place, 854 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:03,879 Speaker 1: and no one really talks about him, like we talked 855 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 1: about Bolten and ze Zavian Collins and those guys, and 856 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,319 Speaker 1: so it sounds like he's gonna be a second round pick. 857 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,840 Speaker 1: But wow, man, he runs fast, he makes plays in 858 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 1: the sec. I'll just I've bet Johan Davis. I've bet 859 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:21,319 Speaker 1: John Davis goes top twenty. Because there's like, what's everyone 860 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,239 Speaker 1: sort of like watching his tape and stuff going oh 861 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 1: holy cow, wow, there it is. For some reason, it 862 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 1: feels like a lot of the draft media community or 863 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: whatever was watching Zavin Collins versus Nick Bolton. This is 864 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 1: this feels very Vanderesh to me. I mean, no one 865 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 1: was talking about Vanderesh top twenty back in twenty seventeen, 866 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,800 Speaker 1: and we got down to it and it was like, Okay, 867 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:44,120 Speaker 1: why is this happening. Uh Dane always calls an ascending prospect, 868 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 1: and I'm like, yeah, well, he watched the tape and 869 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:49,959 Speaker 1: he's awesome. So like, I don't I got I got 870 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,319 Speaker 1: no buds about that. I think Joan Davis, we're talking 871 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 1: about him in the top twenty, top twenty five, and 872 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 1: in three weeks, I'll just say that Bucky, we already 873 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 1: we already did this argument month or so. No. I like, 874 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:03,799 Speaker 1: I just I look at linebacker the way that you 875 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,799 Speaker 1: were talking about running back, like I and hey, Devin 876 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 1: White's amazing. If you're getting Devin White, draft, signed me up, 877 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 1: draft Michael Parsons. But to your point, what like, what 878 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 1: makes Devin White valuable is that he's got freaky good 879 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: coverability for a linebacker and he had nine sacks last season. 880 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 1: So if I'm drafting you in top ten, I need 881 00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:28,840 Speaker 1: I need like you know, six or more sacks to 882 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 1: help me justify that. Whereas, yeah, but if you're not, 883 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: if you're not giving me that, I'm looking at the 884 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 1: list just some of the best linebackers. You know, Darius 885 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 1: Leonard wasn't a first round pick, Bobby Wagner, second round pick, 886 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 1: Fred Warner, third round pick, de Mario Davis, third round pick, 887 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 1: kJ Wright. You can find cowboys are supposedly talking to 888 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,320 Speaker 1: was pick ninety nine. I just you can find guys 889 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:55,760 Speaker 1: that can run and hit all over the place. And 890 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 1: unless if Michael Parsons is that guy who gets you 891 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:03,359 Speaker 1: sacks and covers and tackles everything, I don't hate it, 892 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,280 Speaker 1: but I just I think I'd rather take my chances 893 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 1: drafting that guy. On Day two, somethings were talking about 894 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 1: it and what, Yeah, I'm what I'm trying to do, 895 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 1: and having the conversation. What I want us to do 896 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: is to raise the standard in terms of what we're 897 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 1: doing when we're issuing out grades. So like the Michael 898 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: Parsons and those guys that we're talking about top ten, 899 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:27,480 Speaker 1: I want you to think about when we use the 900 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 1: word as top ten pick, that that is a special 901 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 1: that is like the Holy Grill, like we don't issue 902 00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 1: that out like we may only give out three or 903 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,240 Speaker 1: four top ten grades when we're looking at a class. 904 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,359 Speaker 1: And so you're right, Devin White is special and that's 905 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 1: why those guys have to go because they check off 906 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: all of those boxes. And so really in most draft classes, 907 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 1: they're about eighteen to twenty two guys that are really 908 00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 1: first round picks, right, Like, that's how rare it should 909 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 1: be when we're talking about it. The bulk of the 910 00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 1: guys are second and third round. Is that depending on 911 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,560 Speaker 1: where they go, they can elevate and play at a 912 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: pro bowl level. But when we're putting that grade down, 913 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: we should be really really stingy about handing out those 914 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 1: first round grades because it's almost like going to a 915 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 1: beauty paget. You want them to not only be the 916 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:18,160 Speaker 1: prettiest person at the ball, but you want them to 917 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:21,319 Speaker 1: when the talent competition answered the big hard question, you 918 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 1: want them to be able to check off all the boxes. 919 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,319 Speaker 1: And so that is what it is. Because my other 920 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 1: thing to this would be like, when we talk about 921 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 1: these wide receivers, is there really a big separation between 922 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 1: that clump of Jamarches, DeVante Smith and Jalen Waddle and 923 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:42,360 Speaker 1: then separating the divide and talking about Eli Moore, Rashide 924 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 1: Bateman and some of these other guys, Like how big 925 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 1: is that divide? Because if we don't feel like it's 926 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 1: that big of a divide, we should always take our 927 00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 1: wide receivers in the second and third rounds. Yeah, well, 928 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: look at the divide from last year. I mean the 929 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 1: top three wide receivers were Ceedee Lamb, Henry Ruggs, and 930 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 1: Jerry Judy, who were some of the vers that had 931 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 1: the better year Justin Jefferson, Chase Claypool. I mean, there 932 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 1: are guys that are later in the draft that are 933 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,000 Speaker 1: going to close that gap. Initially, now I know they're 934 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 1: just rookies and there's a long career to be had. 935 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 1: But at the same time, like I completely agree with you, Bucky, 936 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 1: and that's where you have to make that decision. Whenever 937 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,440 Speaker 1: it comes to linebacker, how big is that gap? As 938 00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons j ok, are they that much better than 939 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 1: guys that are like Baron Browning and Nick Bolton and 940 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:33,319 Speaker 1: those guys that are kind of that second tier off linebacker. Yeah, 941 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:36,760 Speaker 1: it also depends on how you play them so stylistically, 942 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 1: like I think you guys brought up. And it's interesting, Dave, 943 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 1: because you brought up a bunch of linebackers that play 944 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 1: in this scheme. Yeah, so you brought up fare Warner. 945 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: This scheme is the Seattle Seahawks scheme. Bobby Wagner is 946 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 1: the scheme. kJ Wright was also in the scheme. I 947 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 1: think the Mario Davis was the only guy that was 948 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,879 Speaker 1: outside of it. So a lot of it is fit 949 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 1: in scheme. And from a philosophical standpoint, how do you 950 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,880 Speaker 1: what are the job requirements from the position that really 951 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:10,320 Speaker 1: depends and so without knowing the Cowboys front office as well, 952 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 1: I think if you can flesh that out, then you 953 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 1: begin to make more sense. Like, Okay, no, this is 954 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 1: a Cowboys pick because from a philosophical standpoint, the coaching 955 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 1: staff and the front officer are married. They want to 956 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 1: play like this, so this is the pool that they're 957 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:28,200 Speaker 1: going to fish from. Yeah, yeah, I will say we 958 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:32,520 Speaker 1: need to do no sorry, Katie, Yeah, we probably do 959 00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:33,879 Speaker 1: need to go to break we do, but go ahead. 960 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,400 Speaker 1: And so it's a good change. But it is funny, 961 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,719 Speaker 1: like you know, when when the old coaching staff was here, 962 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: we really had this thing pretty nailed, like like it 963 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 1: was like a just following along with a map, you know, Yeah, 964 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 1: you had you had the crump trail. Yeah, you just 965 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: followed all the way through. It had partially partially because 966 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 1: of COVID, partially because it's an all new coaching staff, 967 00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:01,040 Speaker 1: like it just hasn't been as easy, which, like I said, 968 00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 1: it's a nice change. But I do kind of miss 969 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 1: the days where like by this point in the draft 970 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 1: cycle three years ago, we would have been we would 971 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 1: have been like, oh yeah, okay, it's late and Vanderesh 972 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:14,759 Speaker 1: it's taco like. So I kind of missed that, but 973 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:17,200 Speaker 1: not really. See, I think it's more fun because think 974 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 1: about last year, and nobody thought it would be Ceedee Lamb. 975 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,719 Speaker 1: Now that was also just because nobody thought he would 976 00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 1: fall that far. There was a chance he would fall, 977 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:28,360 Speaker 1: but nobody anticipated it. But even I think what throws 978 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 1: us off more this year is because they actually took 979 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:33,759 Speaker 1: him last year because there was a chance that even 980 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 1: if he would have fallen to seventeen, the pick still 981 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 1: would have been Caleb on Chase on Yeah, instead they 982 00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 1: went with Ceedee Lamb, and then all of a sudden 983 00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,080 Speaker 1: we were left guessing, now, let's go ahead and take 984 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 1: our second break.

And since 1028 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 1: we got into one whopping question hunt Twitter on the twenty, 1029 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,560 Speaker 1: I want to ask one more question. We're bad, We're 1030 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 1: member bad at it. We were really good the last 1031 00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:19,879 Speaker 1: couple of weeks actually, but we got we got through 1032 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:24,080 Speaker 1: one question today. Thanks everybody for sending in your questions. 1033 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 1: So Doug Brady asked this on Twitter and it kind 1034 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:29,040 Speaker 1: of made me perk up a little bit because I've 1035 00:52:29,080 --> 00:52:31,920 Speaker 1: been thinking about this recently with the pro day that 1036 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 1: Patrick's Urtan had, with the news of Caleb Farley. If 1037 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 1: Certan is your guy, if he is, if the Cowboys 1038 00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:42,840 Speaker 1: are dead set your dad set on Patrick's Rutan, do 1039 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 1: we need to talk more seriously about maybe going up 1040 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 1: and getting him. Could you trade and this is from Doug, 1041 00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 1: could you trade from ten or maybe with pick seventy 1042 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,200 Speaker 1: five to try and get up to seven with Detroit 1043 00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:59,879 Speaker 1: and maybe try and pick mister Curtan at pick number seven. 1044 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:06,399 Speaker 1: That a possibility, Bucky, you think, Man, I know there's 1045 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 1: a possibility him going there. Man, do do we see 1046 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:11,960 Speaker 1: him like that? And I like him? I'm a pastor 1047 00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 1: ten Fano'm friends with his dad and everything. I don't 1048 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:16,080 Speaker 1: know if I see him as one did I have 1049 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 1: to aggressively go up and get because when we talk 1050 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:22,400 Speaker 1: about those corners like that, Jalen Ramsey should be like 1051 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 1: the bar like he's he gonna come and when he 1052 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 1: steps on the field, day one, patter, you got this side, 1053 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 1: You got this out of the field by yourself, no help. 1054 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 1: We're gonna worry everything about digs And I just don't 1055 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:36,960 Speaker 1: know if he's that kind of player. So now I 1056 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:40,799 Speaker 1: wouldn't aggresively move up and make that move. So we're 1057 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:44,120 Speaker 1: talking about if going up you take seventy five or 1058 00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:47,399 Speaker 1: maybe it was you know, ninety nine. I do think 1059 00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:50,279 Speaker 1: it hasn't been talked about enough and obviously still on 1060 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,319 Speaker 1: a movement and chake and gonna happen. Lord knows what 1061 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 1: Atlanta is gonna do. Carolina can still go get aggressive 1062 00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 1: and get a cornerback. But Carolina and eight is a 1063 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,520 Speaker 1: team who could use a cornerback too. And I know 1064 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:03,960 Speaker 1: we've been talking about him using the QB, but cornerback 1065 00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:05,839 Speaker 1: is somewhere they can do it too. And then and 1066 00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,720 Speaker 1: then nine Denver. I mean, I know they signed Darby 1067 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:12,960 Speaker 1: and Kyle Fuller, but Vic Fangio's their head coach. They 1068 00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:16,359 Speaker 1: still might get a little action going on cornerback there 1069 00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:19,000 Speaker 1: in front of us. So, like, it's an interesting concept. 1070 00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:23,879 Speaker 1: I agree wholeheartedly with the buck he said. I just 1071 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,839 Speaker 1: he's not that guy for me, Like, and it's no 1072 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:31,719 Speaker 1: offense to anyone. It's just I'll set it ten and 1073 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:34,279 Speaker 1: I'll still get a really good player. I don't feel 1074 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:35,920 Speaker 1: like I need to give up inventory. I got. I 1075 00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:38,000 Speaker 1: got more work to do on defense later as well. 1076 00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:40,200 Speaker 1: If he was that guy, I'm okay with it. If 1077 00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:42,359 Speaker 1: I've got him circled and that is my guy who 1078 00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:44,399 Speaker 1: won't be the number one guy on my board most 1079 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 1: likely when it's time to pick, especially, he might be, 1080 00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:50,280 Speaker 1: but I kind of doubt it. Keep in mind too, 1081 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:52,560 Speaker 1: that like trading in the top ten is a lot 1082 00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:56,359 Speaker 1: more expensive than trading anywhere else. I mean, you kind 1083 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 1: of set the terms of those deals. Like, yeah, I 1084 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 1: don't remember off the top of my head, but when 1085 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:04,439 Speaker 1: the Bears moved up for Trubisky, they had to pay 1086 00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:06,719 Speaker 1: a fortune to move one spot. Like they gave up 1087 00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:08,719 Speaker 1: a decent amount just to move up one spot to 1088 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,839 Speaker 1: draft their guy. So it's a little more expensive. I 1089 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:16,239 Speaker 1: hate I despise trading up anyway, Like every anybody that 1090 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:18,239 Speaker 1: listens to me knows, I just I'm not a fan. 1091 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:22,239 Speaker 1: And then it's it's not I don't I ohe. Me 1092 00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:24,840 Speaker 1: and Brian do this every year. Brian's always trying to 1093 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:26,440 Speaker 1: get me to get rid of my picks, and I 1094 00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 1: can't stand it. But yeah, no, I'm a pickskuy Bucky. 1095 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,360 Speaker 1: It's a dartboard and I want as many throws. I 1096 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:37,719 Speaker 1: want as many throws as I can get. But but 1097 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 1: before you freak out, before you freak out, it's not 1098 00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:43,759 Speaker 1: a knock. It's not a knock on Patrick's Rtan. I 1099 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,360 Speaker 1: will be very I will be very pleased if Patrick's 1100 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 1: Urtan is the pick. I'm just like y'all, though I'm not. 1101 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:54,240 Speaker 1: I'm not convinced that he's like that transcendent considering. Okay, 1102 00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 1: only the only nine teams pick in front of you, 1103 00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:59,799 Speaker 1: and we know half of them are gonna pick quarterbacks. 1104 00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 1: Like the first three picks are definitely quarterbacks. Then you 1105 00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 1: know Trey Lance and Mac Jones are you know what 1106 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,719 Speaker 1: I mean? There? There could be as many as five 1107 00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:11,319 Speaker 1: in front of you. There could be as many as five. 1108 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:16,359 Speaker 1: And so you like Patrick's or Tan, Micah Parsons, J C. Horn, 1109 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,399 Speaker 1: throw in Kyle Pitts. Why the hell not? Like there's 1110 00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 1: gonna be a really great player there. And I just 1111 00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,400 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to get rid of picks just to 1112 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,719 Speaker 1: move up a couple of spots. In no way, No 1113 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:31,479 Speaker 1: I get that that makes sense. I'm not a pick 1114 00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 1: quarter I like players. I think you have to. If 1115 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:37,960 Speaker 1: you think about, like what your dream scenario is, like 1116 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:39,560 Speaker 1: you have a handful of players that you would like 1117 00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,439 Speaker 1: to get and you would move up to get if 1118 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:43,799 Speaker 1: they are within range, then I think you do it. 1119 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:47,759 Speaker 1: But I mean, look as much as we say and 1120 00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:50,759 Speaker 1: we break it down, it is a coin flip in 1121 00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:52,840 Speaker 1: terms of a picking the player they come in and 1122 00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,879 Speaker 1: they actually play up to expectation, and so the more 1123 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:59,319 Speaker 1: picks that you have, yes, I just typically like to 1124 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:02,440 Speaker 1: expend those picks. On blue chip players. So if I 1125 00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:04,000 Speaker 1: can get up to get what I proceed to be 1126 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:07,880 Speaker 1: a blue chip player, I'm fine. I'm not I'm not 1127 00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:11,319 Speaker 1: necessarily about like all those laid round and all those 1128 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:14,319 Speaker 1: other things Brian maybe I got. Maybe I'll maybe y'all 1129 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,959 Speaker 1: learn that in Green Bay. Like Brian would rather pick 1130 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 1: twice in the top fifty and just call it a day, 1131 00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:21,880 Speaker 1: or like twice in the top thirty and call it 1132 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 1: all to day. Yeah I disagree, but that's okay. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, 1133 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:32,520 Speaker 1: because because in my mind, like it's the top one 1134 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 1: hundred and if you're really doing it, if you really 1135 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 1: have balls your draft boards, you'd only have like seventy 1136 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 1: five people up there, like because a lot of times 1137 00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 1: we talk about like this guy and that guy and hey, 1138 00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 1: he's gonna play it whatever, but they didn't day. You know, 1139 00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:46,560 Speaker 1: he's not really going to be a player. So like 1140 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,080 Speaker 1: just take the good players, put them on the board, 1141 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:51,280 Speaker 1: stack them up as if we're doing the turkey ball, 1142 00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 1: and like take those guys off. The rest of the 1143 00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:57,360 Speaker 1: guys are not going to be guys. Like I hate 1144 00:57:57,360 --> 00:57:59,480 Speaker 1: to say it, but they're not. Like the odds are 1145 00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:02,400 Speaker 1: against the being guys. So I would rather not. I 1146 00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 1: don't want to say this because it sounds crap. I 1147 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 1: don't want to really waste my time. I don't want 1148 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:07,960 Speaker 1: to do all that. I want the good players, and 1149 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:09,800 Speaker 1: then after the good players, I want to go play golf. 1150 00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:12,800 Speaker 1: That's fine that you said that, because that's that's something 1151 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 1: that that's something that Brian taught me, like five years 1152 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,920 Speaker 1: ago or whatever. There's seven years ago. He's like, just 1153 00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 1: don't don't put the guys on your board. And I'm like, man, 1154 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 1: I got this document and I just want to know 1155 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:24,880 Speaker 1: on my board that I watched the guy on tape. 1156 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:26,520 Speaker 1: He's like, no, just don't, don't put him on your 1157 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:28,120 Speaker 1: board if he's not good enough. And I'm like, yeah, 1158 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,040 Speaker 1: but I did watch him. And when we do the 1159 00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 1: draft on day three, I would like mark it off 1160 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:35,520 Speaker 1: as we go. But it's a difference in me and 1161 00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:37,400 Speaker 1: do it the way I'm doing it for a radio 1162 00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:41,240 Speaker 1: show or whatever and NFL War room. You know, no 1163 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 1: that that that that is it. And so seventy five 1164 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:47,920 Speaker 1: is being a little bit extreme. Bill Polian would tell 1165 00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 1: you that one hundred they always wanted one hundred or 1166 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 1: fewer on their board. Most guys will tell you one 1167 00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:58,919 Speaker 1: twenty five, and then those who were scared will say 1168 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:02,880 Speaker 1: one fifty. But you want to you want to skinny 1169 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,560 Speaker 1: it down. I know you guys don't like this because 1170 00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:07,240 Speaker 1: you guys are in Texas, but you wanted to look 1171 00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:09,320 Speaker 1: like the in and out menu, Like I just want 1172 00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:12,400 Speaker 1: can't burger, cheeseburger, fries, this and that. I don't want 1173 00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:18,480 Speaker 1: all that other wager. I just don't know water burgers 1174 00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:22,920 Speaker 1: yet to pull off the water burger. And you're like, whatever, 1175 00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 1: I could get tacos, I could get a burger, I 1176 00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:27,400 Speaker 1: could get a chicken sandwich I could get I could 1177 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:30,680 Speaker 1: get butter chicken. But you can't be great. But you 1178 00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:33,240 Speaker 1: can't be great with all those things. You can't you 1179 00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:35,720 Speaker 1: can't be great with all those things you have to make. 1180 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: Just like waffle house. I want to go to waffle 1181 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 1: house and get waffles and eggs. I don't want everything 1182 00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 1: else on the menu. By that's why you want the 1183 00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:47,200 Speaker 1: board to be skinny. You want skinny. You want four 1184 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 1: picks in the top one hundred. You want a chance 1185 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 1: to add four top one hundred players, not too while. 1186 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:54,640 Speaker 1: While we're we're talking about it though, though, and we're 1187 00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 1: putting these metaphors out there. You've always used this, and 1188 00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:58,560 Speaker 1: I've heard this from Jaff, I've heard this from Brian. 1189 00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:00,840 Speaker 1: But the dartboard. Yeah, I mean you would rather have 1190 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:04,000 Speaker 1: more throws at the dartboard. But what I think Bucky's 1191 01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:06,800 Speaker 1: trying to say, would you rather have more throws at 1192 01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 1: the dart board or would you rather take a huge 1193 01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:12,280 Speaker 1: step right up next to the dartboard and then throw. Yeah, 1194 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,040 Speaker 1: but I get it. I mean there's no better ways 1195 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:18,439 Speaker 1: of hitting. You make the bullseye bigger when you're picking higher. Yeah, 1196 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,680 Speaker 1: but guess what, even the surest things flop like this 1197 01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 1: is true. This is not an exact yence. Okay, So 1198 01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:29,800 Speaker 1: here's the other thing. So my thing is, I want 1199 01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:33,480 Speaker 1: top picks, and then I'm bringing a million undrafted free 1200 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:35,600 Speaker 1: agents because if you go and you study the rosters, 1201 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 1: undrafted free agents are making it at a higher level 1202 01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 1: than these later round picks. And so if I do 1203 01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 1: a really good job of nailing the ones early, then 1204 01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 1: I want as many undrafted free agents as I can 1205 01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:49,640 Speaker 1: find because I can bring those guys in. They cost 1206 01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:52,560 Speaker 1: me nothing, and if we have a great developmental program, 1207 01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 1: we'll get some guys as opposed to a just slinging 1208 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 1: it around the yard trying to get these late round picks. 1209 01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,880 Speaker 1: I will say, make sure that I get some bicy ketchup, 1210 01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:05,560 Speaker 1: you know, and absolutely just another reason water Burgers better. 1211 01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:09,960 Speaker 1: I just I, oh my gosh, I oh man, I 1212 01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 1: would say, so much work for me to do. Now 1213 01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:14,720 Speaker 1: I'll get out of the Bucky. We'll show you. Don't worry. 1214 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:17,120 Speaker 1: I just from North Carolina. You're not even like a 1215 01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:21,040 Speaker 1: California loyalist, like it's it's not even like it's a 1216 01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:24,640 Speaker 1: it's a cross country thing for you. Why why are 1217 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:28,320 Speaker 1: you lying with the wrong Yeah, you would expect Bucky 1218 01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:30,320 Speaker 1: to be a cookout guy. Yeah, you'd be totally a 1219 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 1: cookout guy. Oh no, no, no no, no, no, no, no, 1220 01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:38,360 Speaker 1: I'm from the cookout No. Yes, okay, that's fair and Bucky. 1221 01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,160 Speaker 1: Sometimes we are a little too proud of Texas. Let's 1222 01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:44,920 Speaker 1: be on. Hey, I'm not even from Texas, and I 1223 01:01:44,960 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 1: will lay it all on the line for water Burger. 1224 01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:51,400 Speaker 1: I'm just saying anyway, I just want to stay for 1225 01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 1: the record before like we're completely off the rails. But 1226 01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 1: I don't think they'll make all ten picks. No, I 1227 01:01:57,160 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 1: don't think so. But I just hope that they hold 1228 01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:01,520 Speaker 1: on to the big one. Like, I don't want to 1229 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:03,920 Speaker 1: get rid of any of the at least the first 1230 01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 1: three four, top one hundred. If you want to move 1231 01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:09,440 Speaker 1: ninety nine, you're not gonna break my heart, but at 1232 01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:13,560 Speaker 1: least hold onto the top three picks. Well, that'll be 1233 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:15,600 Speaker 1: interesting to see if the Cowboys think the same way 1234 01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:18,200 Speaker 1: as either David Hellman or Bucky Brooks or Kevin Turner, 1235 01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:23,200 Speaker 1: if whoever ends subsiding, it'll be fun. One more thing, Bucky, 1236 01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:27,000 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, I was just saying, like he's talking 1237 01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:28,600 Speaker 1: about the top four picks. I was like, look, if 1238 01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 1: they close up shop and they get four in the 1239 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:33,240 Speaker 1: top one hundred and they don't have anything on day three, 1240 01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:34,720 Speaker 1: Like I would be okay with that. I would like 1241 01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:38,080 Speaker 1: to move up and target like four impact players as 1242 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:40,680 Speaker 1: opposed to just accumulating stuff. And let's just think about 1243 01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:42,640 Speaker 1: like de Riggie Robinson pick, like coming in as a 1244 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:46,280 Speaker 1: fourth rounder and he played one defensive snap right last year, 1245 01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:50,560 Speaker 1: and so like, you want immediate impact, particularly where the 1246 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:53,240 Speaker 1: team is now. You want guys that can come in 1247 01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 1: and come right into the program and make a contribution. Gosh, 1248 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 1: that Reggie Robinson picks still hurts. It really does every time. 1249 01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:04,680 Speaker 1: I know, but after this patch year kind of hurt 1250 01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:06,480 Speaker 1: me a little bit. It's just let him play. I 1251 01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:09,280 Speaker 1: don't get it. I agree, I just let him do something. 1252 01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:11,520 Speaker 1: But he didn't have it. He didn't have a preseason 1253 01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:13,400 Speaker 1: or a training camp. And it's not Hey, we don't 1254 01:03:13,440 --> 01:03:15,680 Speaker 1: have any switch positions. We don't close the book on 1255 01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:18,000 Speaker 1: guys after one year. I like that, Dave. That makes 1256 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:22,760 Speaker 1: me feel like those. That makes me feel a lot better. 1257 01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:24,560 Speaker 1: But that's gonna do it for us. You're on the 1258 01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 1: Draft Show. Sorry Chris being for keeping you a little 1259 01:03:26,680 --> 01:03:28,439 Speaker 1: bit longer today.

It'll be completely 1263 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,360 Speaker 1: different next week on the Draft Show Tuesday Thursday. I 1264 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:41,040 Speaker 1: haven't looked at it yet, don't ask me. I might 1265 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:42,800 Speaker 1: throw it out on Twitter. But that's gonna do it 1266 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:44,400 Speaker 1: for us today. We'll see you next week on the 1267 01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:48,560 Speaker 1: Draft Show.
