Speaker 1: Is the Dallascowboys dot Com Draft Show, your war room
Speaker 1: for incenter news and draft analysis from deep within the
Speaker 1: confines of Cowboys Headquarters.
Speaker 2: At the Star in Frisco. And now your host, Kyle Yeomans.
Speaker 3: Today is April twenty second, it is a Tuesday, and
Speaker 3: we are two days away from the NFL Draft in
Speaker 3: Green Bay, Wisconsin. It's the final Draft Show presented by
Speaker 3: Miller Lte, the only beer of the Dallas Cowboys. It's
Speaker 3: Miller Time as we lead into draft weekends starting on Thursday,
Speaker 3: six pm Central Time on one oh five to three
Speaker 3: the fan in Dallascowboys dot Com the Dallas Cowboys Radio
Speaker 3: Network on Thursday, and then we work all the way
Speaker 3: through the weekend, all two hundred and fifty seven picks
Speaker 3: coming up. Starting on Thursday. We've got Zach Wilchuck, Brian
Speaker 3: brought us, Tommy Yarsh, Nick Harris, I'm Kyle Yeomans with
Speaker 3: Chris and crew in the back. He's got a full
Speaker 3: team back there getting ready for this b roll and
Speaker 3: making sure that we've got every prospect covered. Because Brian,
Speaker 3: it's time. It's draft week. How about that came quickly,
Speaker 3: didn't it?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Not really.
Speaker 5: No, it's been a while. I guess i'd feel like
Speaker 5: I've been working on this. I know next time, I've
Speaker 5: been working on since the summer. I started in summer
Speaker 5: at two yeah, and yeah November.
Speaker 2: So no, it's u.
Speaker 5: The thing right now is, like I say, I'm consumed
Speaker 5: with trying to figure out how their stack looks, and
Speaker 5: I'm trying to figure out around the league. So I
Speaker 5: have an idea potentially of where this thing could fall
Speaker 5: for Dallas. I'm trying to prepare for the worst possible
Speaker 5: scenarios where, you know, for a say, for example, when
Speaker 5: Ashton Genty goes to five to Jacksonville and then now
Speaker 5: that turns the Raiders into maybe a tech McMillan or
Speaker 5: something like that. I need to figure out how high
Speaker 5: they have Matthew Golden on their board they have offensive
Speaker 5: linemen above him. Is the distance between those guys pretty significant?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 5: Is Will Johnson and play We're gonna have a chance
Speaker 5: to talk with Will McLay and those guys and Jerry
Speaker 5: Jones and those guys today. You know, we can ask
Speaker 5: some probing questions to maybe get an idea of where
Speaker 5: they're looking at with some of these players, they probably
Speaker 5: won't tell us the names, but if you can ask
Speaker 5: them to specifically give you an idea of how they
Speaker 5: measure certain players or look at certain players, then maybe
Speaker 5: that can give you some clues. But we need to
Speaker 5: figure out how this stack is going to be because
Speaker 5: there's gonna be a possibility there's some players that we've
Speaker 5: all kind of talked about that might not be there
Speaker 5: for this football team. That part of it's the fun
Speaker 5: part for me right now.
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's no question I think that Ted McMillan is
Speaker 6: to pick if he's there at twelve. To me, that's
Speaker 6: I think the direction they're going to go. I think
Speaker 6: he's their top wide receiver on their board personally. But
Speaker 6: you're gonna have to navigate some some minefields now, because
Speaker 6: it does sound like Ashton Genty and Brian you were
Speaker 6: on that yesterday on our show. Jackson was probably gonna
Speaker 6: snag him there at five, and maybe New England might
Speaker 6: end up just saying, you know what, we're gonna take
Speaker 6: him at four.
Speaker 2: So where does Ted go?
Speaker 6: Could Ted still be in play with New England who's
Speaker 6: been tonning for wide receivers. I know they signed Stefon Diggs,
Speaker 6: but that's a different type of wide receiver, or are
Speaker 6: they locked in on Will Campbell what happens with the
Speaker 6: Vegas Raiders. Then at six, I think that's a great
Speaker 6: point for Tech McMillan as well. New Orleans at nine,
Speaker 6: we've thought maybe a quarterback there. It doesn't sound like
Speaker 6: they'ren on George Sanders. It sounds like Jackson Dark could
Speaker 6: be the guy. Do they pivot and take Tech McMillan.
Speaker 5: It sounds like to me that Walker's in play there.
Speaker 5: The edge linebacker from Georgia is what a lot of
Speaker 5: people are saying that the corner the quarterback is not
Speaker 5: going to be the selection there.
Speaker 2: We'll see, we'll see how.
Speaker 5: But right now, the name that I'm hearing really strong
Speaker 5: in New Orleans is Jalen Walker, the edge linebacker from
Speaker 5: But he's also in play potential Carolina with Carolina at eight.
Speaker 2: So these are guys that if you asked.
Speaker 5: Me right now, give me a wild card guy that
Speaker 5: if he got through, and I think Walker's a wildcard guy.
Speaker 5: You just don't send coaches down in a private workout
Speaker 5: to just to send them down there. You're trying to
Speaker 5: kind of figure some things out. We'll figure it out
Speaker 5: with Malik Williams out there. You figure it out too
Speaker 5: with this, you know, with Walker as well. So I
Speaker 5: think they're trying to kind of set things up that
Speaker 5: if they in fact, you know, and I'm not saying
Speaker 5: to get wiped out, but there's some potentially some guys
Speaker 5: that they think might be there. Now this thing is
Speaker 5: shaking a couple of different ways that maybe those guys
Speaker 5: that they thought about here maybe a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 5: might not be available and they have to be able
Speaker 5: to pivot off that.
Speaker 7: Yeah, five to eleven could go a million different directions.
Speaker 8: Really good, absolutely, And there's some pretty strong reports from
Speaker 8: people I trust at least that say the three offensive
Speaker 8: linemen are going to be in the top ten. And
Speaker 8: if that's factoring in Will Campbell, arm On membu Kelvin Banks,
Speaker 8: what does that look like?
Speaker 7: Where do those guys go?
Speaker 8: And then on the flip side, who falls you know,
Speaker 8: who's going to be there for you at twelve you
Speaker 8: maybe didn't expect. Is it a Jalen Walker or is
Speaker 8: it a Tech McMillan, potentially is it a Mason Graham?
Speaker 8: Even I don't think you'll slip that far, but I'm
Speaker 8: just kind of speaking speaking to the million possibilities that
Speaker 8: this top twelve will have. You know, this team, they
Speaker 8: can they can go through the possibilities, they can go
Speaker 8: through the scenarios, but they really won't know what it's
Speaker 8: going to look like until the war room is there,
Speaker 8: and there will there'll there will be a war room
Speaker 8: discussion If Teed McMillan is off the board, I think
Speaker 8: it will be a war room discussion to try to
Speaker 8: guys campaigning for their guys and we'll be watching the
Speaker 8: draft feed right here looking at them going back and forth.
Speaker 5: Do you think Nick, that they will just sit there
Speaker 5: and trust the stack though? When they you know, maybe
Speaker 5: the discussions that they need to have right now are
Speaker 5: being had. And I think this is why, you know,
Speaker 5: with with the draft being a couple of days away,
Speaker 5: these are the times you sit in that room and
Speaker 5: really has shot, Okay, what if?
Speaker 2: What if?
Speaker 5: And just and just create as much tension as you
Speaker 5: can in that room right now so that when you know,
Speaker 5: we saw what happened with the Johnny Manziel, you know,
Speaker 5: the potential Johnny Manziel discussion. Yes it was brought up,
Speaker 5: but then it was quickly brought up that Hey, we
Speaker 5: have Zach Martin in our stack here and here. I
Speaker 5: would hate for them to get in that room and
Speaker 5: start jumping tacks. If that was the case, that to
Speaker 5: me defeats everything. If you're going to put together an
Speaker 5: order and you say this is how we would take
Speaker 5: these players, and you don't window dress your board, you
Speaker 5: should take those players. So the discussions I think need
Speaker 5: to be happening right now. I don't know, it sounds
Speaker 5: like that, maybe you might feel different about that.
Speaker 8: Well, it is the benefit of having a guy like
Speaker 8: Brian Schottenheimer in the building. He's going to over communicate,
Speaker 8: he's going to go through those scenarios. He's going to
Speaker 8: talk that through with the scouting staff. Whereas a couple
Speaker 8: of years ago when there was a debate between Mazzie
Speaker 8: Smith and Matthew bergeron you know, was that something that
Speaker 8: maybe could have been addressed in the days prior and
Speaker 8: would they maybe have made a better pick, you know,
Speaker 8: whether it wasn't those two guys or somewhere else. So
Speaker 8: I wonder how much they they've learned on those kinds
Speaker 8: of things and can go back to.
Speaker 3: It kind of the way that you're outlining this, Brian,
Speaker 3: It kind of sounds like you feel like there is
Speaker 3: going to be some window dressing you talk.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 5: I just like I said to me there, and I'm
Speaker 5: sorry I didn't let you finish there.
Speaker 2: That's my apology.
Speaker 5: I don't think they to me, they you shouldn't window dress.
Speaker 5: That's and I can't speak for them what's going on
Speaker 5: in that room right now. But if you're sitting there
Speaker 5: jumping tags, okay, let's let's be honest. Tom Seskowski lost
Speaker 5: his job here with the Sharif Floyd draft. If you remember,
Speaker 5: as they had the scouts had him, and then Rod
Speaker 5: Marinelli wanted nothing to do with Serif Floyd. When it
Speaker 5: came down to Dallas's time to pick, they dropped back
Speaker 5: out of there and they took something else Frederick out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they had draft. It was it was it was something.
Speaker 2: But like I said, they had they had a.
Speaker 5: Plan for what they wanted to do, and Tom Saskowski
Speaker 5: stood up and said, hey, you know, wait a minute,
Speaker 5: we've got this player. What are we doing. Ultimately cost
Speaker 5: him his job. You know, that's that's the change that
Speaker 5: you made right there because of the discussions that weren't
Speaker 5: had beforehand.
Speaker 2: I would like to believe.
Speaker 5: That they're not going to jump tags and they're going
Speaker 5: to have that stack how they want it. And you
Speaker 5: saw it, you know, you talked about war room discussions.
Speaker 5: It happened perfectly when you looked at how they drafted
Speaker 5: draft or they had drafted Zach Martin. When Ryan Chazer
Speaker 5: went off the board, Jerry Zones fired, Look, hey, Johnny
Speaker 5: Manziel is still there. Yeah, Johnny Manziel's tags below Zach
Speaker 5: Martin's tack. You know we're gonna take Zach Martin here. Jerry, Yeah,
Speaker 5: you know. And that's okay, that's how those things work.
Speaker 5: So but if there's window dressing going on and all that,
Speaker 5: then to me, that doesn't that that that always spells
Speaker 5: like failure. To me, I get when you jump in
Speaker 5: tags because you're not true to your board.
Speaker 6: The one question I would have, and we've all been
Speaker 6: studying this draft and you're kind of putting together your
Speaker 6: own stacks, is you do kind of have a clump
Speaker 6: of players that are all very similar.
Speaker 2: And I think that.
Speaker 6: They would probably be comfortable with a good cluster of players,
Speaker 6: which is why I like the trade back.
Speaker 2: I think would be ideal for them.
Speaker 6: The problem is you're hearing everybody kind of wants to
Speaker 6: move back, and I don't think you're gonna get a partner.
Speaker 6: So is it less of maybe jumping tags just in
Speaker 6: this weird draft? How it is when you've got players,
Speaker 6: stack them.
Speaker 2: Stack them, stack them.
Speaker 5: I mean, if you've got a cluster of players and
Speaker 5: we're all dealing with this right now, like I say,
Speaker 5: I'm gonna I'm gonna post my stack two hundred and
Speaker 5: thirty five players. Watch how I did the running backs
Speaker 5: in the second round, when it came to my board,
Speaker 5: when it came to Johnson, when it came to Hampton,
Speaker 5: when it came to Henderson. You know, I to myself,
Speaker 5: I said, I've got to do this for myself. I've
Speaker 5: got to determine my gut feeling or film whatever you
Speaker 5: want to say.
Speaker 2: Medical. I determined that my guys and what order I
Speaker 2: put them in.
Speaker 5: You know, if like you say, yeah, the cluster's nice,
Speaker 5: put the cluster in the order that you would take it.
Speaker 5: Don't just jump around. Don't all of a sudden like,
Speaker 5: oh jeez, we like this guy on the clock. You know,
Speaker 5: you don't have a lot of time as is to
Speaker 5: be having these discussions, these discussions need to be have
Speaker 5: right now.
Speaker 9: And I think when you put that much work into
Speaker 9: a board and that much work into studying these prospects,
Speaker 9: you're kind of doing yourself a disservice if you don't
Speaker 9: stick to it, because then you.
Speaker 10: Don't trust your own process.
Speaker 9: And I think with the success that Dallas has had
Speaker 9: in the draft, if you look at a broader scale
Speaker 9: of it, going back really in terms of their franchise history,
Speaker 9: and I think that they've done.
Speaker 2: A good job.
Speaker 9: And you've in that broom, Brian, so you've seen what
Speaker 9: they've been able to do in terms of this class.
Speaker 9: It is interesting because zac they very clearly it seems like,
Speaker 9: want to move back if they can, and everybody wants
Speaker 9: to move back if they can. My question is, since
Speaker 9: everybody wants to move back, I wonder if there's one
Speaker 9: of the thirty two teams out there that's saying, you know,
Speaker 9: what if we move up Denver?
Speaker 2: What if?
Speaker 7: What if ever?
Speaker 2: Broncos?
Speaker 10: What if?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 10: What if we're what if we're overthinking this a little bit?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 9: What if there's someone there, like if Tech McMillan falls
Speaker 9: and Denver calls you, yeah that I think that would
Speaker 9: be the conundrum where we're looking at that screen over
Speaker 9: there here on Thursday, and there's a lot of debate
Speaker 9: going on because what can you get it?
Speaker 10: If you if you would you be it.
Speaker 9: Would you be willing to sacrifice Ted McMillan to move
Speaker 9: back to twenty taking that cag ye, go and pick
Speaker 9: up another top one hundred, pick.
Speaker 2: Pick fifty one. That's where the debate I think is good.
Speaker 2: If you if all of a sudden, you know, the
Speaker 2: cowboys will tell you.
Speaker 5: And Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones are adamant about this
Speaker 5: and correct me if I'm wrong. Boys, you know, the
Speaker 5: minute you pick up that phone, you're losing the deal. Yeah,
Speaker 5: they say that, the minute you pick up that phone,
Speaker 5: you're losing the deal. So okay, they pick up the phone.
Speaker 5: We've seen plenty of times when they're on the clock.
Speaker 5: Stephen Jones phone, he's just waiting. Phones ring and phone
Speaker 5: ring and maybe it doesn't ring, maybe it doesn't ring
Speaker 5: it but see they're waiting. They're waiting to see. But
Speaker 5: you have to be ready for these discussions if in fact,
Speaker 5: like listen, if we're going to take this deal, what
Speaker 5: are we moving back for. That's what the cluster of
Speaker 5: players helps you, but make sure you have the clusters
Speaker 5: of players right how you would take them. You know,
Speaker 5: there doesn't need to be a discussion about that, Like, Okay,
Speaker 5: if we trade back and they and they go in order,
Speaker 5: and we're comfortable with taking the third guy in the cluster,
Speaker 5: then let's make this trade. If we're not, let's stand
Speaker 5: in here and make a pick.
Speaker 8: That's make sure of the deal with Denver that could
Speaker 8: be just kind of throw a wrench into this is
Speaker 8: that it would be a forty point overpay for Denver
Speaker 8: to go up to twelve.
Speaker 2: We saw it.
Speaker 8: We'd give it up with Detroit last year, giving them
Speaker 8: twenty to fifty one. Yeah, we saw it with Detroit
Speaker 8: last year. But because there were a lot of calls
Speaker 8: that they were fielding right, we're not going to be
Speaker 8: fielding nearly as many calls this year. I don't think
Speaker 8: fifty one would be in play if that were to happen.
Speaker 8: I think it would be a third or and then
Speaker 8: maybe you get under seventh or something.
Speaker 2: Down the line like pig eighty five.
Speaker 5: I would like to believe that Sean Payton, if he's
Speaker 5: coming up the board from twenty to twelve, has somebody
Speaker 5: in mind, and it doesn't bother him to do that.
Speaker 5: He has a relationship with the Joneses. And maybe, and Nick,
Speaker 5: I love what you're saying, I think, and I don't
Speaker 5: think you're wrong. I just think this is if there's
Speaker 5: somebody that can cut a deal with the Joneses on
Speaker 5: an overpay. Look what like I say, Dan Campbell in
Speaker 5: that group last year, it's they have a relationship. If
Speaker 5: you have relationships in the league, and sometimes you're like, listen,
Speaker 5: I want to go get this guy.
Speaker 2: And if I have to overpay a.
Speaker 5: Two, maybe the draft gods are smiling on him because
Speaker 5: they should have got a two when they traded back
Speaker 5: for Trap when they got Travis Frederick, they took a three.
Speaker 5: Maybe the draft gods are saying, this is the time
Speaker 5: you get an overpay. You know, we're going to give
Speaker 5: you one here. But you know, I mean to me,
Speaker 5: this is I think that a lot of the relationships
Speaker 5: are the ones that are in hotant here. Trading partners
Speaker 5: are important that like, listen, you want to come up
Speaker 5: here and get your player, I'll take fifty one from you,
Speaker 5: you know, and and and.
Speaker 2: We'll call it a day.
Speaker 5: And you know, you kind of put the ball in
Speaker 5: Shawn's court and if he says no, then you just
Speaker 5: move on with your day.
Speaker 3: How much what would a return pick look like that
Speaker 3: in that scenario, because you could send another pick back
Speaker 3: of those fifths and that makes up the fifty overpay, yeah,
Speaker 3: forty overpay.
Speaker 8: It would be that first fifth. And you don't want
Speaker 8: to go from what is it, seventy six?
Speaker 2: And I'm not interested in that.
Speaker 7: I'm not interested in doing that.
Speaker 3: But you pick up two seconds, you still have you
Speaker 3: have four top one hundred.
Speaker 8: I would rather get the third and send like a seventh,
Speaker 8: to be honest, sure if that's if that's what it had.
Speaker 2: To be, and that might be the back in chart. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's right. Now, going back to what Brian.
Speaker 3: Was talking about, when it comes to hold them up
Speaker 3: and get them, get them.
Speaker 5: I would, I'd hold them up. I'm like, listen, you
Speaker 5: want to come up here and grab a player. Obviously,
Speaker 5: I'm I'm interested. Sure, you could take twelve. I want
Speaker 5: fifty one, you know, and they're like, listen, we can't
Speaker 5: do fifty one. Then I'm like okay, then I'm then
Speaker 5: I'm done. Yeah, yeah, I'm done. And then maybe somebody
Speaker 5: else wants to come up there. But to me, if
Speaker 5: you want to make that kind of move, if we're
Speaker 5: going to be in a draft where people are not
Speaker 5: gonna give me value for my pick, you know, and pick,
Speaker 5: then I'm just gonna I'm just gonna stand there and pick.
Speaker 3: Okay, So if they stand there and pick, we're talking
Speaker 3: about window dressing boards, right, and what it would look like.
Speaker 3: Let's pretend we don't have the connection. We don't talk
Speaker 3: to the war room.
Speaker 2: It's on mute.
Speaker 3: We're just watching them put the pick in on Thursday
Speaker 3: at twelve, and it ends up being one of these
Speaker 3: surprise names where it's Mikeel Williams or Shamar Stewart or
Speaker 3: will Johnson or Jade Baron or one of these other
Speaker 3: guys that's not Matthew Golden, Tedo At McMillan and kind
Speaker 3: of the guys that we think to be.
Speaker 2: Likely to be the pick at twelve.
Speaker 3: Would you consider that window dressing your board or would
Speaker 3: you consider that stay?
Speaker 5: No, stack they they if they if they have Mikeel
Speaker 5: Williams and Stewart and all those guys, No, that's their stack,
Speaker 5: that's the stack. That's their stack. I'm not trust me
Speaker 5: we're all selfish. SOB's in this room. We want them
Speaker 5: to take the guys we like we do. It makes good,
Speaker 5: it makes good drama, it makes good theater, it makes
Speaker 5: all these.
Speaker 2: Things we want them to. We don't want. I don't
Speaker 2: want to sit here and rip them for taking a
Speaker 2: player that I didn't like. That's not good. But to me, yeah, it's.
Speaker 5: Their stack, and if that's their stack, then I'm not
Speaker 5: going to have a problem with that. If they solve
Speaker 5: we all see these players different. Hell Nick and I
Speaker 5: see players different a lot, Zach. I always see players
Speaker 5: different in this thing. So if that's what they think,
Speaker 5: if that's what they believe, that's on them. It's not
Speaker 5: on me. But you know, I'm hey, we put it
Speaker 5: out there. We're transparent.
Speaker 2: But I'm like.
Speaker 5: I said, if that's how they have it stacked it,
Speaker 5: it's not window dressing. That's that's their board.
Speaker 6: I want to kick this around, And Brian, I mean,
Speaker 6: you've you've taught me stick to the stick to the stack,
Speaker 6: stick to your board, don't wind it.
Speaker 2: Why dude, we don't do it.
Speaker 5: I'm saying if you don't, if you don't do it,
Speaker 5: if you don't believe in it then, don't I hear you?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 6: The one thing that I wanted to ask because you
Speaker 6: were trying to figure out, Hey, what are teams wanting,
Speaker 6: and you're starting to hear corners could be a big
Speaker 6: run here and they might go higher like some of
Speaker 6: these guys Maxwell Harriston, Trey Amos out of all Ole
Speaker 6: miss right, these guys might go higher than you think.
Speaker 6: Do you end up saying like, maybe I need to
Speaker 6: prioritize a position there because I might get wiped out
Speaker 6: and I'm not going to get it there at forty four?
Speaker 5: Or if with Taco, wasn't that a Taco situation, didn't
Speaker 5: they feel like they weren't going to get a defensive
Speaker 5: end coming back around.
Speaker 6: Because that's why I'm starting to feel at forty four,
Speaker 6: you're probably not going running back. You're probably gonna have
Speaker 6: to go cornerback there else you're not going to get
Speaker 6: a guy that you think is a legit day one starter.
Speaker 5: The thing that might happen is we might see a
Speaker 5: slide on some of these defensive tackles that we like
Speaker 5: because of some medical questions. We might see because of Collins,
Speaker 5: some of the medical questions with him, we might see
Speaker 5: some of the medical questions too, potentially and maybe some
Speaker 5: other issues with harmon from you know, from Oregon as
Speaker 5: a possibly maybe some of these tackles that we really
Speaker 5: really like up high are going to slide a little
Speaker 5: bit and we'll be surprised with wow, why is that
Speaker 5: guy still there? But this is the disadvantage of this
Speaker 5: room has We don't have medical information on these players, correct,
Speaker 5: you know, we hear things and stuff like that, but
Speaker 5: not all of them.
Speaker 2: The question is how many guys on this.
Speaker 5: Board have things that teams absolutely don't want to take
Speaker 5: And we're sitting there and got these guys in the
Speaker 5: second and third round.
Speaker 2: You see it from like years past.
Speaker 3: Nikobe Dean was one that recently was one of our
Speaker 3: top fifteen sixteen players in the entire drafted.
Speaker 5: But it might have to do with the lack of
Speaker 5: size there on that one more than anything.
Speaker 3: Sure, And I think there was the same thing. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and Joey Porter Junior. Yeah, I mean it's gonna happen.
Speaker 3: There's gonna be at least one name that we're going
Speaker 3: to be sitting there middle of the first round saying
Speaker 3: why is this name still available?
Speaker 12: And it may be a guy that the Cowboys have
Speaker 12: talked to.
Speaker 3: It may be somebody completely different and off the radar
Speaker 3: to a certain extent. And Tommy, I think you've been
Speaker 3: around this team enough to see kind of where they're leaning.
Speaker 3: The conversation is Tet versus Golden? Should it be something
Speaker 3: else other than Tet versus Golden at this point.
Speaker 12: Or is that still the most likely pairing?
Speaker 9: I mean, if both of them are, that should absolutely
Speaker 9: be the conversation.
Speaker 10: I think.
Speaker 9: I think when you've got, you know, two players of
Speaker 9: that caliber at such a position of need in that
Speaker 9: second wide receiver spot, you look at Ted McMillan and say, Okay,
Speaker 9: this is a guy who can be our downfield threat.
Speaker 9: We need a guy who can compliment CD on the outside.
Speaker 9: He can give that to us. And then Matthew Golden
Speaker 9: somewhat the same thing, just kind of in a different way.
Speaker 9: Stephen Jones said at league meetings that you know they
Speaker 9: want they want an explosive second option. I think both
Speaker 9: of them are explosive in their own separate ways. The
Speaker 9: question is going to be what kind of explosiveness are
Speaker 9: they looking for? Are they looking for the explosiveness explosiveness
Speaker 9: in the speed aspect where you've got Matthew Golden who
Speaker 9: ran you know, a four two nine forty yard dash
Speaker 9: and he's just able to create separation early when at
Speaker 9: the top of his routes. Or do you look at
Speaker 9: Tetoro McMillan's explosion in terms of what he can do
Speaker 9: in the air and with his catch radius and things
Speaker 9: like that. And so if those two guys are on
Speaker 9: the board, then that absolutely has to be the discussion.
Speaker 10: I think.
Speaker 9: Now the interesting part of it is, I don't think
Speaker 9: McMillan's going to be there. I I really don't think so.
Speaker 9: I think he's that good of a player, and I
Speaker 9: think that there's gonna be someone in the top eleven
Speaker 9: that's going to.
Speaker 10: Have him higher.
Speaker 9: And I mean, you even look at a team like
Speaker 9: San Francisco. They're the biggest wild card out of all
Speaker 9: this because if McMillan gets past the Bears at ten,
Speaker 9: which he if he's still there, he probably will. I
Speaker 9: don't see them taking McMillan, then everything's on the table
Speaker 9: for San Franco.
Speaker 12: Yeah, so there would poach you round after.
Speaker 9: Round, absolutely, And so McMillan is the guy that you know,
Speaker 9: you could say, okay, that's possible. And saying it could
Speaker 9: be the pick, they could look at something else as
Speaker 9: a bigger position of need. But you know that that's
Speaker 9: what it comes down to. So if he's off the board,
Speaker 9: then it comes down to the conversation that we were
Speaker 9: just having, which is, what does your stack look like?
Speaker 9: Is Matthew Golden ahead of a Mike kel Williams. Is
Speaker 9: he ahead of a Shamar Stewart if he continues to drop?
Speaker 10: Is is he ahead of Jayalen Walker? If Jaylen Walker drops?
Speaker 9: I personally think Matthew Golden would do very well with
Speaker 9: the Cowboys, but I also wouldn't be surprised if there
Speaker 9: are other guys higher. I mean, I've still got Luther
Speaker 9: Burden higher on my board in terms of wide receiver.
Speaker 9: He's my second best wide receiver. I just don't know
Speaker 9: if he's the wide receiver fifth of that the Cowboys
Speaker 9: are looking for. Right well, I wrote down my notes
Speaker 9: on him. I feel like I'm watching Seeddey Lamb's Oklahoma tape.
Speaker 9: When I watch him play, it's a lot of the
Speaker 9: similar It's a lot of similar things. Now, two Ceedey
Speaker 9: Lambs on a team is not necessarily the worst thing
Speaker 9: in the world. But if you're looking for a compliment
Speaker 9: to him and not necessarily a clone. Then that that's
Speaker 9: where the conversation comes into play. So it wouldn't shock
Speaker 9: me if there are other names that are higher on
Speaker 9: the board. But if t Mack and Golden are there,
Speaker 9: that's your conversation.
Speaker 2: Buka is the big question for me.
Speaker 10: That's another one.
Speaker 6: Right, Like Buka and Golden, see, I don't really think
Speaker 6: Burden's in play for them, and you could end up
Speaker 6: being right man. Burden can end up being one of
Speaker 6: the best of this draft. But Buka is the guy
Speaker 6: that I would be advocating for personally. They talk a
Speaker 6: lot about wanting to improve the running game mechag Buka
Speaker 6: and I've stressed this. He is, in my opinion, the
Speaker 6: best blocking wide receiver in this class. I think he
Speaker 6: can play all three wide receiver spots. I don't think
Speaker 6: he's getting enough credit for the explosives that he can
Speaker 6: play with. There are times you will see them dump
Speaker 6: the ball off at Ohio State to a mechg Buka
Speaker 6: and he takes a short three five yard slant drag
Speaker 6: screen and takes it fifty yards to the house. I
Speaker 6: think he is one of the safest can't miss players
Speaker 6: in this draft, and you're talking about one, I'm filling
Speaker 6: a need. Two, I'm filling an absolute robin to my batman,
Speaker 6: and he has played that role his entire career. I
Speaker 6: love him the body, control the route, running the hands.
Speaker 2: I would be standing on the table and fighting for
Speaker 2: a mechic Buka.
Speaker 6: He's got the size at six one two oh five,
Speaker 6: and maybe Matthew gold ends up being a better player,
Speaker 6: and he certainly got the speed there. But I really
Speaker 6: wonder between those two because I think it's tet one.
Speaker 6: But who's their wide receiver too? Is it Golden? Isn't
Speaker 6: a mechic Buka. I don't think we've talked about him enough.
Speaker 2: Is he number two on your board? He's number two
Speaker 2: for me? Okay?
Speaker 3: So you're not window dressing. You're standing on it and
Speaker 3: you're saying it's three. That would end up being Golden Golden,
Speaker 3: ye golder than Verin would be four. Okay, not included trivers.
Speaker 5: Say how many players do you have between McMillan and
Speaker 5: Golden on your board?
Speaker 7: Of about twenty four to twenty five?
Speaker 2: Okay in between? So it's not close to you.
Speaker 8: My Golden is behind McMillan, mc buka and Burden for me.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 5: Okay, but but as far as the top guys, say,
Speaker 5: for example, like if it was a Will Johnson, or
Speaker 5: it was a Michel Williams, or it was one of
Speaker 5: these offensive linemen, say like a Simmons or somebody like that,
Speaker 5: you have, is it? You have all those guys in between?
Speaker 7: What were those names?
Speaker 5: Agains Simmons, Yes, Simmons, Michel Williams, Yes, Will Johnson most definitely.
Speaker 3: Who's the closest to Tet for you, closest to Teta
Speaker 3: out of those other names?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 3: So out of Eggbuka now non wide receiver? Who those
Speaker 3: other possible names?
Speaker 8: Yeah, then we're starting to get into guys that I
Speaker 8: don't even expect to be there, like Mason Graham.
Speaker 7: I have Mason grat after.
Speaker 2: And Tet's that far up. Yes see, I was trying
Speaker 2: to get a gauge.
Speaker 5: So you've got several players top players above Golden. Yes,
Speaker 5: right see, I'm trying to say this could happen. This
Speaker 5: could be the same same conversation, same thing here, Tommy.
Speaker 5: You know, yeah, you're right, the conversation if they're both
Speaker 5: there should be. See, you know, I just think that
Speaker 5: they might have guys. We need to figure out how
Speaker 5: many guys they have between McMillan and Golden, because it
Speaker 5: might be guys that all of a sudden, like you know, oh,
Speaker 5: it's automatically gonna be Golden.
Speaker 2: No, it's maybe it's Will Johnson. Yeah, you know, maybe
Speaker 2: it's Will Johnson. Maybe it's it's Shamar Stewart. Walter Nolan's
Speaker 2: a name that I know that they love in this building.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I mean if they, if they, if they again,
Speaker 5: if they're following their stack and they have all those
Speaker 5: players between, then it makes a lot of sense that
Speaker 5: that's maybe the direction we go. Maybe it's not as
Speaker 5: cut and dry as we all think that it's going
Speaker 5: to be either McMillan or Golden. There might be players
Speaker 5: between that we're not giving enough thought to.
Speaker 3: And I think that's a great conversation because I think
Speaker 3: here we're all pretty much in agreeance that tet's the
Speaker 3: number one board, t MAC is the number one wide
Speaker 3: receiver on the board.
Speaker 2: Do you feel think about Hunter?
Speaker 5: Depending on what you feel about Hunter, where you put
Speaker 5: Travis Hunter? I just kept Hunter out of this one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've kind of put him in his own little
Speaker 3: category when it comes to Tetoroa McMillan, he's the number
Speaker 3: one wide receiver that could be available at twelve for
Speaker 3: the Cowboys. When you look across the hall, do you
Speaker 3: feel confident that that's what they think? It's Tech number one.
Speaker 3: Golden still on that list, but now Brian's throwing the
Speaker 3: names in the mix in between the two. I think
Speaker 3: that's the best way to look at this board and
Speaker 3: trying to decipher what they are going to do. Across
Speaker 3: the hallway. I think it's Tetoa, a little bit of space,
Speaker 3: and then Golden. The question that Brian continues to pose,
Speaker 3: and it's a great question, is how many guys are
Speaker 3: in between. That's what's going to determine who's going to
Speaker 3: be the twelfth pick on Thursday.
Speaker 8: The culture that Brian Schetenhamer's trying to build, a staff
Speaker 8: that he's put together, the assistance that he's had with
Speaker 8: the experience that those guys have had in different places,
Speaker 8: the experience of those guys have had recruiting different places too.
Speaker 8: At the receiver position, specifically talking about Junior Adams. If
Speaker 8: I Buka's on the board right there, I'd be surprised
Speaker 8: if there's.
Speaker 7: Not a big conversation about Abuka.
Speaker 12: To throw him in that mix, Yeah, let's go would
Speaker 12: be interesting.
Speaker 7: BOOKA at twelve, I could definitely see happening.
Speaker 3: Wow, okay, somebody quoted put it in a fot Ward
Speaker 3: Star telegram.
Speaker 2: Nik Kara set all right, he's right there. I mean absolutely,
Speaker 2: he's right there.
Speaker 12: All right, we got to take our first break.
Speaker 3: When we come back, it's time for some Twitter on
Speaker 3: the twenty and we'll answer your questions and maybe even
Speaker 3: go through a little quick mock draft from five to
Speaker 3: eleven to see what we can figure out what's going

Speaker 3: along with you, brother, Yeah, absolutely, the nicky time certainly
Speaker 3: changes you all right. Time for some Twitter on the twenty.
Speaker 3: On the twenty, our first question comes from Jordan. You
Speaker 3: guys talked about Denver in that first segment as a
Speaker 3: possible trade up team in the first round. How would
Speaker 3: you guys feel about a trade back to twenty that
Speaker 3: would include a player. We can't talk about specific players,
Speaker 3: but this gentleman asking the question wanted to throw a
Speaker 3: wide receiver in the mix.
Speaker 12: So a veteran wide receiver and the second round, Nick.
Speaker 8: You're not going to take a Pro Bowl level wide
Speaker 8: receiver for a pick swap.
Speaker 7: Okay, that's not going to happen. You would be giving
Speaker 7: up your pick, your first round pick.
Speaker 2: So there you go.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I've seen that around. It's not possible. It's not
Speaker 8: feasibly possible. Nobody in their right mind is going to
Speaker 8: agree to a trade.
Speaker 3: Like that because the person here, Jordan would say twenty
Speaker 3: and then I'll just read his tweet verbatim.
Speaker 12: He says, Portland Sutton.
Speaker 2: He's a Pro Bowl wide receiver.
Speaker 3: You're not getting a first round pick back, Andy s
Speaker 3: Portland Sutton, right, we Yeah.
Speaker 2: The problems of the world of Madden. Yeah, exactly, exactly.
Speaker 6: Well, we have an old Cowboys reporter that loves to
Speaker 6: be a headline clickbait guy. Yeah, that's where this is
Speaker 6: being Jenny come from.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Oh okay, I saw that as well, and that's
Speaker 2: just not happening.
Speaker 3: Okay, So now that we've shot that down, what would
Speaker 3: a realistic trade scenario look like I think we goes
Speaker 3: back to what we talked about second round pick swapping
Speaker 3: back to twenty, and then you would have to send
Speaker 3: something back in return, probably a fifth rus.
Speaker 2: And always have to make these deals fair. You don't.
Speaker 9: I was gonna say, you take the first and the second,
Speaker 9: and I think you shake some hands and yeah.
Speaker 2: To me, like you know, you know you you you
Speaker 2: hope you you know.
Speaker 5: You got our guys if you do it, if you've
Speaker 5: if you've talked about it, maybe pre draft, Yeah, maybe
Speaker 5: that's something you know. I'm sure that Shawn and Jerry
Speaker 5: and Steven have all talked pre draft, and Shawn's made
Speaker 5: it been known that listen, I'm Sewan has a history
Speaker 5: of doing this. You know, he has a history of
Speaker 5: trying to swing and get up there and grab a player.
Speaker 5: So there's it should be. No, he's got a good
Speaker 5: football team over there in Denver, so he understands that.
Speaker 5: And you know, if he could add somebody, if he's
Speaker 5: got somebody in mind he wants to come go get
Speaker 5: then you know by all means, but I would I
Speaker 5: would pre draft talk to him and say, hey, listen,
Speaker 5: if you're interested in coming up, can we talk about
Speaker 5: fifty one, he goes, Jerry, I'm not interested in giving
Speaker 5: you fifty one.
Speaker 2: Okay, what are you interested in doing?
Speaker 5: Then this thing doesn't have to be done on the clock,
Speaker 5: But if it's done on the clock, I'm trying to
Speaker 5: get fifty one from him. You know, if you want
Speaker 5: to pre talk it out, we can maybe negotiate this
Speaker 5: thing if your guy's there, But otherwise I'm gonna take
Speaker 5: your fifty one and go on with my day.
Speaker 8: If Denver's trying to come up to grab a running back,
Speaker 8: let's say they're trying to come up to twelve to
Speaker 8: grab Hampton, really trying to get in front of and
Speaker 8: if they can't get in front of them, when does
Speaker 8: this running back run start? Because if Hampton goes before twenty,
Speaker 8: they probably roll with Henderson. I woulder these running backs
Speaker 8: are flying off the board here in the first round.
Speaker 5: All I wonder if he's I wonder if he's thinking
Speaker 5: about somebody other than.
Speaker 8: Hampton, Henderson potentially, or or just a different player, different player,
Speaker 8: just a different player, and then maybe trying to address it.
Speaker 5: But you know, if he doesn't have a two, maybe
Speaker 5: he can use his three, you know, that kind of thing.
Speaker 5: But if he's he is the one guy that you
Speaker 5: know will try and go up the board. He is
Speaker 5: the when you look at Andy Reid is another one
Speaker 5: coming from the bottom of the draft. Andy and those
Speaker 5: guys will try and move up if they can. But
Speaker 5: like I said, if I'm if I'm Sean Pate or
Speaker 5: I'm the Joneses, I'm I'm talking to Sean, and it's like, listen,
Speaker 5: if your guys here, give us a call. But I'm
Speaker 5: telling you right now, it's going to cost you fifty
Speaker 5: one if you want to make this deal. And I'll
Speaker 5: think about that. And if your guys here, we can
Speaker 5: do this. If your guys not here, then you know
Speaker 5: we'll move on with her day. But it could be
Speaker 5: for another player other than Hampton.
Speaker 2: I think it could be a tight end.
Speaker 6: I think he might be Ian Tyler Warren or Colston
Speaker 6: Loveland could be it could be one of those two
Speaker 6: because if you those corner two, yeah, because Indy could
Speaker 6: be a team that I've seen interested in the tight
Speaker 6: end potentially, So maybe you're trying to jump ahead of
Speaker 6: Indy at fourteen. And then Chicago and New Orleans both
Speaker 6: have been linked to Tyler Warren, as have the Jets,
Speaker 6: but it sounds more likely that the Jets would probably
Speaker 6: prefer to go to offensive line.
Speaker 5: I heard that if Jacksonville at five traded back to
Speaker 5: say New Orleans at nine, then that's they're looking at
Speaker 5: war at tight end.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I've heard. Maybe that's what with Sean
Speaker 2: Payton's wanting.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, because I mean the needs that I have
Speaker 3: in front, wide receiver, running back, corner, tight end, those
Speaker 3: were kind of the four spots and there are guys
Speaker 3: at each of those positions in the early parts of
Speaker 3: the draft that you could possibly get. Now, they did
Speaker 3: sign Evan Ingram, remember in the middle of the off season,
Speaker 3: so they did. That's a good point. They have a
Speaker 3: tight end. They have a guy there that I mean,
Speaker 3: he signed her guy.
Speaker 12: He's her guy. But they signed one out of Jacksonville
Speaker 12: so one year where he was really good.
Speaker 2: But that is a good point.
Speaker 3: But there's there's at least somebody else there to compete,
Speaker 3: all right, somebody wanted us to go through this three
Speaker 3: round draft scenario for the Cowboys. This is off of
Speaker 3: sleeper Cowboys, the sleeper app that's on there.
Speaker 12: I don't know if we can even promote that stuff,
Speaker 12: but I'm.
Speaker 3: Gonna I'm gonna just give you the three scenarios, or
Speaker 3: they have four scenarios of the first three round picks,
Speaker 3: starting with scenario one.
Speaker 12: Keep these in mind.
Speaker 3: Tedor Road McMillan, Carson Swessinger, UCLA linebacker, Damian Martinez running
Speaker 3: back from Nick's favorite school, the Miami Hurricanes.
Speaker 2: That is the first one.
Speaker 12: It's not true, Okay, I know it's not true.
Speaker 3: Number two Matthew Golden, Texas wide receiver, quin Shawn Judkins
Speaker 3: running back from Ohio State, and then Noel Williams, corner
Speaker 3: from Howe you know O'Brian likes Noel Williams quite a bit.
Speaker 3: Third scenario Amaron Hampton running back from North Carolina, Shavon
Speaker 3: Revel from East Carolina. He's a corner, and then Trey
Speaker 3: Harris Ole miss wide receiver.
Speaker 12: These are some tough scenarios. All three of these are good.
Speaker 3: Josh Simmons is the starter of the fourth scenario. I
Speaker 3: know that's Vach Lombardi's pick. Already, offensive lineman from Ohio State,
Speaker 3: Traveon Henderson. They go with the Ohio State brethren and
Speaker 3: running back, and then Alfred Collins, the defensive tackle from
Speaker 3: Texas is at the end.
Speaker 2: So four opportunities.
Speaker 12: If you need me to repeat any of them, let
Speaker 12: me know.
Speaker 5: My board would tell me the last one, Yes, same
Speaker 5: sam my board would I don't know if Dallas would
Speaker 5: do that. Yeah, my board board would tell me to
Speaker 5: take the last one.
Speaker 2: That's what it did.
Speaker 5: The Revel one is also interesting to my board would
Speaker 5: tell me to do that one as well. Uh so,
Speaker 5: But for Dallas, I think we have to have a
Speaker 5: different discussion here.
Speaker 8: You usually have a corner so damn bad and arguably
Speaker 8: two in this draft, and you hope your second one
Speaker 8: is at the top of day three rather than the
Speaker 8: bottom of day three.
Speaker 6: That's what stinks about the number one on that with
Speaker 6: Tech questions, you're Dontinez because that they would be high
Speaker 6: for me. But yep, no corner in there makes it really,
Speaker 6: really tough, and I think they've got to come away
Speaker 6: with a corner in the first three rounds they think
Speaker 6: can start immediately.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 9: I would love to combine one and three to make
Speaker 9: it Tech, Revel and Martinez. That would be great, But
Speaker 9: in this scenario, I think I would go three with Hampton,
Speaker 9: savonn Revel and Trey Harris.
Speaker 2: I love Trey Harris. I'm with you on Harris.
Speaker 9: If you get him in the third round, still we're
Speaker 9: doing backflips down the hallway.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be a big time. Yeah. That one
Speaker 2: does seem to be the best one.
Speaker 5: If you'd start to talk about what the Cowboys would do, right,
Speaker 5: I mean, or what they pretend get your needs. There's
Speaker 5: a couple of different ways we need to figure out though.
Speaker 5: The Morrison worked out, Nick, I don't know if you
Speaker 5: know this or not. Maybe I'm putting you on the spot.
Speaker 5: Morrison worked out yesterday in Arizona, and I don't know
Speaker 5: if the Cowboys sent coaches down there. They did, okay,
Speaker 5: Notre Dame so okay, So now they got the Notre
Speaker 5: Dame corner covered. So they've got all these corners covered.
Speaker 5: Maybe there's a couple of these corners that have had
Speaker 5: injury histories that have first round grades, Revel Morrison, those
Speaker 5: types of guys. Maybe these are guys that you would
Speaker 5: consider at forty four. I don't know if they get
Speaker 5: to you, but if they would, that would be to
Speaker 5: me grabbing first round guys off the board, off my
Speaker 5: particular the board.
Speaker 2: I don't know about their.
Speaker 12: Board, man, I don't know which one I would go with.
Speaker 3: I think the third one is where I would lean
Speaker 3: just because it fills all three needs and I feel
Speaker 3: confident in all three of.
Speaker 2: Those guys to be starters. Henderson A R.
Speaker 12: Excuse me, Hampton, Revel and Harris. I think all three
Speaker 12: of those guys could be there specifically.
Speaker 3: All right, double R wants to know can we get
Speaker 3: a comp between Thornton the Tennessee wide receiver in the
Speaker 3: third I guess Day three possible pick and Ted Rolla McMillan.
Speaker 3: Just curious if slightly faster big wide receiver drafted in
Speaker 3: the third or later could give them a comparable production
Speaker 3: to what Ted McMillan would give them in the early
Speaker 3: parts of the draft.
Speaker 8: For me, Ted has a lot more to his game.
Speaker 8: I mean from I see Dante Thorton as a straight
Speaker 8: line guy. I mean, he's got the speed, but he's
Speaker 8: a straight line guy and he's gonna have those explosive
Speaker 8: plays for you for sure. But he's going to meet
Speaker 8: some resistance starting off in the NFL because he doesn't
Speaker 8: have much of a routrey, he doesn't have much deception,
Speaker 8: whereas Teed McMillan has a deception he can beat you
Speaker 8: in the shorts intermediate game.
Speaker 7: He can take the bubble screens and take him to
Speaker 7: the house.
Speaker 8: He can beat you with a double move down the field,
Speaker 8: Whereas Dante Thornton I don't feel like has that same
Speaker 8: type of same type of feel. But Dante Thornton, I've
Speaker 8: said it on the show a couple of times. I
Speaker 8: think he would be a fun addition to this team.
Speaker 8: If they don't end up getting that big possession guy
Speaker 8: early and they're still going into day three looking for
Speaker 8: a receiver, I think that's that's a guy that would
Speaker 8: be a lot of fun. At sixty five two oh five,
Speaker 8: he can go up and grab it. He gives you
Speaker 8: that red zone presence. He ran a four to three
Speaker 8: of the combine, so he's got the speed to you.
Speaker 8: Just hope there would be some refinement with him as well.
Speaker 8: Also one thing to note about Dante Thornton Junior. Junior,
Speaker 8: Adams recruited him to Oregon. That's where he began his
Speaker 8: career trans from from there. There are some connections between
Speaker 8: Dante Thornton Junior and this coaching stems.
Speaker 5: Thornton is really explosive. The problem is he doesn't make
Speaker 5: anybody miss yep. And that's the total opposite of what
Speaker 5: you got to McMillan. I think that's the biggest thing
Speaker 5: between these two guys when you start to talk about
Speaker 5: but the size, the ability to go get the football.
Speaker 5: Nick hit it on the head. These Tennessee receivers. We
Speaker 5: marvel at the plays they make down the field, but
Speaker 5: we also are are upset that they only run two routes. Yeah,
Speaker 5: you know, and this guy is a big slant and
Speaker 5: a big vertical guy. You know, not to say he
Speaker 5: can't learn and do other things, but at six five
Speaker 5: and two o five and the speed he has absolutely
Speaker 5: with the connections there with the Cowboys receivers, coach, you know,
Speaker 5: you'd have to consider that guy day three for sure.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I wrote kind of a one trick pony, but gosh,
Speaker 6: that trick is fun.
Speaker 2: And it is.
Speaker 6: I mean, he's a vertical threat ricks, he's got some
Speaker 6: size to him, Yeah, the size down the fields. Got
Speaker 6: a nine round throw it up to him. I mean yeah,
Speaker 6: and he's super skinny. And I wonder if you can,
Speaker 6: if you find another big corner to go against Timmy
Speaker 6: Jams at the line, is he just gonna get absolutely bullied?
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a I.
Speaker 6: Don't think there is a comparison between those two. You're
Speaker 6: talking night and day difference.
Speaker 7: Can we call this episode that trick is fun.
Speaker 12: That trick is fun, trick is fun for fun trick
Speaker 12: and make that happen now.
Speaker 3: I did in my h my seven round mock draft
Speaker 3: that I released on the Blitz this past weekend. I
Speaker 3: in my simulation, Ttero at McMillan was not there at twelve.
Speaker 3: I went with Matthew Golden at twelve. That was just
Speaker 3: the pick that I had. I went with the value
Speaker 3: there on my board and I stuck in pick with
Speaker 3: Matthew Golden Because of that, Thornton was available in the
Speaker 3: fifth round for me, I double dipped at wide receiver.
Speaker 3: I could see something like that, maybe not those two
Speaker 3: specifically Golden and Thornton, but I could see them double
Speaker 3: dipping in certain spots to try and get what they
Speaker 3: weren't able to get in the first couple of rounds,
Speaker 3: depending on who they go with at twelve.
Speaker 9: If they're going to double sorry the next one. I
Speaker 9: feel like, if they're going to double dip, you look
Speaker 9: at defensive tackle because they've only got.
Speaker 2: Five on this roster. That's a good one.
Speaker 9: Yeah, So that there's got to be you know, unless
Speaker 9: they signed somebody else here in the coming days before
Speaker 9: the draft or even after the draft, you gotta feel
Speaker 9: like defensive tackle is the spot where they're going.
Speaker 2: To double dip if I could give you a real
Speaker 2: quick double dip.
Speaker 5: This is from John Owning did it on his mock draft,
Speaker 5: Burchard Smith messing you and then he went with jar
Speaker 5: Quz Hunter from Auburn.
Speaker 2: Okay, how do you like that combination? I'd like that all.
Speaker 2: I think a couple of.
Speaker 8: Running backs Richard Smith would give you some slot flexibility too,
Speaker 8: so you could find packages, many packages where they're both
Speaker 8: on both on the field. For you, I would hope
Speaker 8: you get back a little bit earlier than John.
Speaker 5: He did not take one in the first three PCs,
Speaker 5: so he just double dipped it on the on day
Speaker 5: three day.
Speaker 8: I think for a similar type, I think I would
Speaker 8: like my Nungui a little bit better, or a Oli
Speaker 8: Gordon er TOAJ Brooks that's in kind of that same
Speaker 8: range for me. Yeah, a Land Larson in that same
Speaker 8: range from over Smith over Hunter Hunter and then Smith
Speaker 8: doubling back.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, because a those guys are bigger than Hunter,
Speaker 6: But I do like that combination.
Speaker 2: We talked about that yesterday. But I'm with you.
Speaker 6: I mean, I've got I got todge Brooks in the third.
Speaker 6: I'm a massive Todge Brooks fan. I think that guy
Speaker 6: can do everything. You don't have to take him off
Speaker 6: the field. I mean, and he's a tremendous pass blocker
Speaker 6: as well, just not a burner for you, But you
Speaker 6: get that with Brishard Smith's that would be a good compliment.
Speaker 3: I've got them all, almost all those names except for Hunter,
Speaker 3: who is in the fifth. For me, I've got everybody
Speaker 3: else that you guys talked about in the fourth. So
Speaker 3: right around that same conversation, all right.
Speaker 2: Somebody wanted to send us. It's an excerpt of the.
Speaker 3: Pre draft press conference call from the Move the Sticks
Speaker 3: podcast and Daniel Jeremiah. He talked about and he had
Speaker 3: an interesting answer for how the Cowboys could take an
Speaker 3: interior offensive lineman instead at pick number twelve. I think
Speaker 3: they need to upgrade the receiver room, for sure, is
Speaker 3: the quote. The expectation, though, in talking to folks around
Speaker 3: the league and in regards to the Cowboys, is that
Speaker 3: they've done a lot of work on the interior offensive linemen.
Speaker 3: Does that change the way you think about things or
Speaker 3: how does that fit in?
Speaker 5: Well, that's why that's why I asked Nick where he
Speaker 5: had Golden in relation to some of these other players,
Speaker 5: because I have to feel like that maybe could Booker,
Speaker 5: you know, be above, could Booker, Jackson one of these guards,
Speaker 5: you know, the guard's ohigo stage.
Speaker 12: You consider Banks in that conversation.
Speaker 5: Banks could absolutely be in that mix for sure, if
Speaker 5: you want to play mcguard, I mean I I got
Speaker 5: him at tackle, but to them he's probably a guard.
Speaker 5: Uh but yeah, I think that you know, those guys
Speaker 5: very well could be all above and maybe not Jackson,
Speaker 5: but Booker and then and sure Banks could.
Speaker 2: Be above Golden.
Speaker 5: And if that's the stack, then that's where I would
Speaker 5: say that maybe that's how they feel.
Speaker 2: Then you know, that's probably the direction that they might go.
Speaker 8: These are just alignment I have above Golden, Banks, Booker, Gray's, Abel, Membu,
Speaker 8: Campbell and connorly big Connory and Simmons excuse me, and Simmons,
Speaker 8: I'm big Connory.
Speaker 2: I remember you being big Connory. Yeah, Kin only said letting. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I like Nick, you you wouldn't have a problem with
Speaker 5: them taking a guard than at twelve or you wouldn't
Speaker 5: have that a problem. Excuse me alignment at twelve.
Speaker 8: Uh, I mean for training camp content purposes, I would
Speaker 8: be crushed.
Speaker 2: But no, I we're trying to win football game.
Speaker 7: I wouldn't have that.
Speaker 8: I mean you you look back to what Brian Schenheimer
Speaker 8: said of the league meetings in Florida about out and
Speaker 8: we want to get more physical. I want to run
Speaker 8: the damn football. We want to We're going to be
Speaker 8: a physical team. I asked, and what do you want
Speaker 8: this offensive identity to be? Right out the gates? He said,
Speaker 8: this is going to be a physical football team. We're
Speaker 8: going to get after it at the point of attack.
Speaker 8: It wouldn't surprise me if if alignment is very much
Speaker 8: in play here at twelve and they go with the
Speaker 8: Banks there, or if somehow Campbell slides. If Campbell's there,
Speaker 8: then they pick pivot on that guy. The question for
Speaker 8: me that becomes really interesting is if they take Simmons,
Speaker 8: because what the hell do they do? You know, who
Speaker 8: are they moving inside? But where who's coming off the field.
Speaker 8: Because Guidan's not going to play guard, Steel's not going
Speaker 8: to play guard. Simmons isn't going to play guard. I mean,
Speaker 8: unless you're really trying to, you know, project him at
Speaker 8: a different spot on the different side of the ball.
Speaker 8: That's where things get a little interesting. But I can understand,
Speaker 8: like if you talk about winter dressing your board, if
Speaker 8: you really like a guy and he's at the top
Speaker 8: of your board there for you, you gotta pick him
Speaker 8: and you fixed out later.
Speaker 2: No chance Steele could play right guard.
Speaker 7: I don't huh.
Speaker 5: I don't think they talk about the power and stuff
Speaker 5: like that or lack of I don't think that would
Speaker 5: be the case.
Speaker 8: And you want to maximize seels athleticism, and like I said,
Speaker 8: draft one on one pole, Like I said, with a
Speaker 8: draft one on one last week, this coaching staff is
Speaker 8: gonna help Terrence Steele more than any other player on
Speaker 8: this roster.
Speaker 2: I do agree with you.
Speaker 7: And are you giving up on Tyler Guyton after year one?
Speaker 2: That's that would be that you big.
Speaker 3: If they take Simmons, that's a big indictment on what
Speaker 3: they think about Guidon.
Speaker 5: And I'll tell you what those Simmons would start right
Speaker 5: off the jump. He would be fantastic for me. And
Speaker 5: I don't think I don't think you would look back,
Speaker 5: I think you would be really really happy with him
Speaker 5: playing playing tackle for you, you know, I just like
Speaker 5: I said, I I just I just think he's too
Speaker 5: good of a player. But I'm all about if they're
Speaker 5: going to take a lineman at twelve, I never have
Speaker 5: a problem.
Speaker 2: What do you guys? Real quick?
Speaker 5: And I know it's a whole different show, but with
Speaker 5: like awesome Richards, could Austin Richards play right guard?
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's certainly certainly a possibility.
Speaker 5: I mean, he he likes to play. He wants to
Speaker 5: play guard more than does tackle. Are we not thinking
Speaker 5: about him or Thomas one of.
Speaker 2: These Thomas is again?
Speaker 5: I mean I know it's it's maybe they're thinking about
Speaker 5: guys that we're not thinking of, you know, And that's
Speaker 5: why then you would say, well, hell, we'll draft Simmons
Speaker 5: or one of these guys and play at tackle and
Speaker 5: then we'll let we'll let you know, get and go compete,
Speaker 5: you know, maybe on the right side there and figure
Speaker 5: this thing out.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 8: One thing about Simmons, his medicals are pretty strong. Everyone
Speaker 8: feels pretty good about that knee going into the drafts.
Speaker 3: And every time something like that comes out, it continues
Speaker 3: to push him up and up draft.
Speaker 6: He could go way higher than we're talking. He could
Speaker 6: go before the Cowboys even pick it.
Speaker 5: I got a lot of followers from Kansas City fans
Speaker 5: because I talk about him. Everybody in Kansas City thinks
Speaker 5: he's going to be there at thirty one.
Speaker 2: Hell it might be if they do. Then Andy Reid,
Speaker 2: I'm gonn kiss you want to see you?
Speaker 3: That would be interesting, all right when we go and
Speaker 3: I see you when we come back. Frame that we're
Speaker 3: gonna hit some more three round mock drafts that we're
Speaker 3: putting together, and we've put together over these final days

Speaker 4: Lasercare Eye Center, I can see near far in between.

Speaker 3: the only beer of the Dallas Cowboys. It's Miller Time
Speaker 3: with Zach Wilchuck Brian brought us Tommy Yarsh, Nick Harris,
Speaker 3: Chris Beam in the back on Kyle Yeomans, Tommy. I'll
Speaker 3: let you start three round mock drafts. What do you
Speaker 3: think the Cowboys are going to do come Thursday.
Speaker 9: I don't feel confident about this at all, but we're
Speaker 9: going to to do it nonetheless. First round, I'm going
Speaker 9: Matthew Golden, wide receiver from Texas. Like I said, I
Speaker 9: don't think Ted McMillan is going to be there.
Speaker 2: I think Golden.
Speaker 12: All right, all right, all right, thank.
Speaker 10: You, Chris, thank you, Matthew McConahay.
Speaker 9: I think that you know, Golden's the second best receiver
Speaker 9: that the Cowboys would would would look at in that spot.
Speaker 9: I think even though you know, like I said, I
Speaker 9: still got burdened higher on my board. I think Golden
Speaker 9: is the other name that they're looking at. So I
Speaker 9: go Golden the first, uh savon Revel Junior the corner
Speaker 9: from East Carolina.
Speaker 10: In the second.
Speaker 9: I feel like that might be one where he just drops.
Speaker 9: And you know, if you're questioning the medicals too much
Speaker 9: depends what the report is on him. I've heard nothing.
Speaker 9: I don't think I've heard anything concerning if is there anything,
Speaker 9: is just.
Speaker 7: A matter if he's going to be ready at camp
Speaker 7: training camp.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think he's.
Speaker 5: I think I've heard I've heard really good stuff about
Speaker 5: him or not.
Speaker 8: The same people saying about Ravel is the same people
Speaker 8: that said Brooks is going to be ready in time
Speaker 8: for camp last year. So I worry about that. And
Speaker 8: Brooks wasn't ready to October. So that's that's that's the
Speaker 8: only thing that's holding me back on being like, yeah,
Speaker 8: Revel is fine, but you know, we'll see.
Speaker 10: Good to keep up with though, thanks for saying that
Speaker 10: after I made.
Speaker 6: Gosh, I like your pick, though, I mean, I'd still
Speaker 6: love to take He's a great player, it's awesome.
Speaker 9: And third round, I'm taking Jordan Phillips, defensive tackle Maryland.
Speaker 10: I would love.
Speaker 9: I would love Alfred Collins in this spot. I think
Speaker 9: Collins is going to go before that in the third
Speaker 9: so you get your one tech there in the middle
Speaker 9: of the defensive line because like I said, oh brother,
Speaker 9: this guy.
Speaker 7: Stick for what because you passed on the Texas guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I said, he's not going to be there.
Speaker 2: He's gonna go too high.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think he's not going to be there.
Speaker 2: That was Tommy's reaction whenever it happened.
Speaker 8: Yeah, you would play Phillips at the one tech I would. Okay,
Speaker 8: it's the line coach Aaron Whitecotton was at his pro day. Uh,
Speaker 8: he's just got three tech five tech experience, and I
Speaker 8: think there is a slide inside that's gospel in his future.
Speaker 8: You just he'd be strictly there for you on early rundowns.
Speaker 7: Zero sacks in his career.
Speaker 8: That's just the one thing that really stands out to
Speaker 8: me from a pass rush perspective.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I do like Jordan Phillips though, big fan of his.
Speaker 3: All Right, Brian, what you think I like your three picks?
Speaker 3: By the way, Tommy, you don't stink, I promise, thanks Brian.
Speaker 2: What are your three? I am?
Speaker 5: I'm struggling with two with the fact that I don't
Speaker 5: think McMillan's going to be there, so I'm kind of
Speaker 5: struggle with that. I do think that they're going to go.
Speaker 5: I think they're going to go in opposite direction here.
Speaker 5: I think they're going to take a cornerback here. I
Speaker 5: think Will Johnson's going to be the pick wow for
Speaker 5: them at at twelve. Uh, you know, there might be
Speaker 5: some possibility of him going earlier, but I have a
Speaker 5: feeling that there. I think there's just and that's why
Speaker 5: I keep asking this question about the gap between McMillan
Speaker 5: and see Golden. And I'm thinking that maybe that the
Speaker 5: way they're going to stack this thing, there's going to
Speaker 5: be defensive player or an offensive player, and it's not
Speaker 5: going to be a wide receiver that's going to be there.
Speaker 5: I think that Will Johnson might be there, might be
Speaker 5: one of the guys that they really really consider there.
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna take Will Johnson with that.
Speaker 3: With that pick, I don't want to disrupt you too bad,
Speaker 3: but I do want to ask a question before moving on.
Speaker 3: Do you feel like the Matt gold the Matthew Golden
Speaker 3: conversation has been a smoke screen the entire time.
Speaker 2: No, I don't.
Speaker 5: I think that they're legitimately trying to figure out though
Speaker 5: about the receiver position. But I think, as you know,
Speaker 5: as we were going along here, we didn't consider where
Speaker 5: their stock. And I know I'm making a big deal
Speaker 5: about this, but I think it's really important to that
Speaker 5: is because what happens when you get in that room.
Speaker 5: You don't want big time discussions on the clock as
Speaker 5: a as a group, we agreed, this is our player,
Speaker 5: this is how we see these players.
Speaker 2: If it's our turn to pick. These are guys. I
Speaker 2: think that.
Speaker 5: I think Golden is a hell of a player, and yeah,
Speaker 5: they absolutely need a wide receiver. But I just wonder
Speaker 5: if there's guys on their board that they feel that's better.
Speaker 5: And that's why I asked Nick that question question. I
Speaker 5: think Nick's got a really good handle on this of
Speaker 5: the guys that between you know, between say McMillan and
Speaker 5: then also Golden, I kind of I'm not as as
Speaker 5: deep as he is on those, but I think he's
Speaker 5: going the right direction here. So I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 5: pick I'm gonna pick Will Johnson there with the twelfth uh,
Speaker 5: the twelfth pick. I'm gonna turn around in the second
Speaker 5: round and I'm gonna I'm gonna say that they're going
Speaker 5: to have a chance, uh to draft Henderson here. I
Speaker 5: think Henderson is going to get to them at forty four. Somebody,
Speaker 5: somebody go with Johnson Henderson. And then I'm gonna go
Speaker 5: ahead and and and give you an idea of I'm
Speaker 5: gonna take Royals the wide receiver from Utah se I
Speaker 5: like that. So corner. I didn't get the defensive tackle.
Speaker 5: Maybe some of these guys slide, uh, you know, that
Speaker 5: would be something I think that would be, you know,
Speaker 5: would help the Cowboys. But let's go Johnson right there,
Speaker 5: Let's go Henderson, and let's go Royal Royals.
Speaker 3: I think the way that Cowboys fans would react to
Speaker 3: those three picks, they would be a little disappointed in
Speaker 3: Will Johnson just based off of initial reaction.
Speaker 2: That's it.
Speaker 3: I think Will Johnson can be a good player. I
Speaker 3: have a first round great on him. Specifically, I'm I'm
Speaker 3: a little higher on Will Johnson than most, so I
Speaker 3: wouldn't be upset about it. I think Cowboys fans as
Speaker 3: a whole would probably be upset. However, the two and
Speaker 3: three round haul that you get there with Henderson and Royals,
Speaker 3: I think that would subside all of the disappointment from
Speaker 3: round one and you get three solid spots filled.
Speaker 2: Oh, they'd be home runs. I don't know.
Speaker 3: Both those are two grand slams in the second and
Speaker 3: the third round. Because I'd pray they'd make it there.
Speaker 6: I don't think that they would, but gosh, if they did, Brian,
Speaker 6: you got a great cluster there. I love those three picks.
Speaker 2: What are your three?
Speaker 6: I'm gonna stick with Ted McMillan, And You're right, he
Speaker 6: might not be there, but I think that he's the
Speaker 6: guy that they want.
Speaker 2: He's the guy that I would also like.
Speaker 6: So I'm just gonna go ahead and hope that the
Speaker 6: draft gods are shining on the Cowboys like they did
Speaker 6: with Ceedee Lamb a few years ago, and Ted Roha
Speaker 6: McMillan finds his way to navigate to twelve, then I
Speaker 6: do think you're gonna get a run on corners. I
Speaker 6: don't know if this player is going to be there,
Speaker 6: but Maxwell harriston the corner of Kentucky, we haven't. I
Speaker 6: don't know that we've linked him a lot to the Cowboys.
Speaker 6: Six one six, he tied the school record for most
Speaker 6: interceptions re turn for touchdown, Super athlete, team captain. He's
Speaker 6: a great zone cover guy. I think that he's one
Speaker 6: of the better corners in this reft. He might end
Speaker 6: up sneaking into the first round of not being there
Speaker 6: and then in the third there I thought about defensive
Speaker 6: tackle as well. I do think I'm gonna just go
Speaker 6: with the running back here and Tootin from Virginia Tech
Speaker 6: is the guy. Now, I personally do like RJ. Harvey more,
Speaker 6: but they might like Bracheal Tuton a little bit more
Speaker 6: out of Virginia Tech. And he's an electrifying runner, incredible production,
Speaker 6: home run speed, He's physical between the tackles despite being
Speaker 6: a smaller bag. Those three would get me very, very
Speaker 6: excited if that's what they were able to do day
Speaker 6: one and two.
Speaker 8: We would have such a fun conversation if we're there
Speaker 8: at seventy six and they haven't taken the running back yet,
Speaker 8: because there's gonna be so many in that sweet spot
Speaker 8: where were gonna have a fun conversation about that, and
Speaker 8: probably a fun conversation in the war room between guys
Speaker 8: like Tuton, RJ. Harvey, Damien Martinez, Devin Neil if he's
Speaker 8: in that mixed for them, guys like that my three,
Speaker 8: My I'll go backwards third round. Bachelle Tooton, I'm with you.
Speaker 8: I think I think there's a lot of things that
Speaker 8: make sense about him in this offense, and you know,
Speaker 8: you factor in him being a thirty visit guy as well.
Speaker 8: I think he just makes a lot of sense, especially
Speaker 8: when you talk about being violent, being physical, He's he
Speaker 8: is that type of guy.
Speaker 17: Uh.
Speaker 8: In the second round, Trey Amos out of Ole Miss
Speaker 8: This is a this is a top twenty five player
Speaker 8: on my board.
Speaker 7: I think he's so.
Speaker 8: I think he is legit at that you would have
Speaker 8: to play some musical chairs at the corner spot to
Speaker 8: figure out, you know, who's gonna slide inside, who's going
Speaker 8: to be your inside guy, especially once Diggs gets healthy.
Speaker 8: But it also gives you the freedom until Digs gets
Speaker 8: healthy and then in the first round I'm going to
Speaker 8: mikel Williams at twelve and who knows, this could change
Speaker 8: by Thursday. But that's that's the pick I see happening
Speaker 8: right now. But if you ask my confidence level on it,
Speaker 8: I'm all the way at Narle.
Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, I think.
Speaker 2: What do we all feel? If you gave me a
Speaker 2: scale of.
Speaker 12: One to ten, what would be your confidence level on
Speaker 12: your first round pick?
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm one hundred percent if he's on the board.
Speaker 2: I'm just scared that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with you there, let's just stuck with it.
Speaker 3: What's your confidence level that he's on the board right now?
Speaker 3: Might get ten percent? Okay, so you would give me
Speaker 3: a one out of ten, So what would you be
Speaker 3: your confidence level in your first round pick, Brian, I.
Speaker 5: Am a four five, I'm five out of five out
Speaker 5: of ten.
Speaker 3: Okay, halfway there go like four four four, probably a four.
Speaker 3: My first round right now is Golden. I think we're
Speaker 3: going to learn a lot over the next forty eight hours.
Speaker 2: I really do.
Speaker 3: I'm still thinking Golden at the point. My second round
Speaker 3: pick would be Shavon Revel out of ECU, going out
Speaker 3: that cornerback spot. I know he's a little banged up,
Speaker 3: but I still think he's an immediate player, in a
Speaker 3: first round caliber player when he's healthy. And then my
Speaker 3: third one would be Basial Touton as Well out of
Speaker 3: Virginia Tech. Let's let's make something out of that running
Speaker 3: back room in the third round and then we can
Speaker 3: continue to fix it from there. But I would put
Speaker 3: a three on my confidence level with Golden the first
Speaker 3: round pick.
Speaker 7: Really quick.
Speaker 8: The positions of need, the dire positions of need for
Speaker 8: this team. You talk about receiver, you talk about corner
Speaker 8: and defensive tackle. You can even throw running back in
Speaker 8: there too. Sure, the one position that I think you
Speaker 8: could get away with not picking in the first two days,
Speaker 8: and you'll find somebody in free agency still and still
Speaker 8: have a competent option at that spot is receiver. And
Speaker 8: I wonder how much they think about the same thing,
Speaker 8: because that was certainly their thinking last year at the
Speaker 8: running back position. It just didn't work out for them.
Speaker 8: I do wonder how much that factors in, because if
Speaker 8: they signed that guy yesterday, that guy would factor into
Speaker 8: a compick formula. If they sign him next Wednesday, it
Speaker 8: doesn't necessarily factor into a comp pick formula.
Speaker 2: I think that's a great point.
Speaker 6: And as we've talked, like the Golden Egbuca battle, I
Speaker 6: think Brian with will Johnson there, if Ted's not on
Speaker 6: the board, I could easily see will Johnson being the
Speaker 6: pivot pick there.
Speaker 5: I think I just think that it's somebody, and I
Speaker 5: picked somebody, and I could have picked Mikeel Williams there too.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I just think they're going to be a large I
Speaker 5: shouldn't say large. There's going to be several players between
Speaker 5: McMillan and Golden on the stack. That's just that's how
Speaker 5: I think this is going to play out, because they
Speaker 5: could hell, we talked about gold they could be burdened,
Speaker 5: could be there, Abuka. I mean, these are guys, they
Speaker 5: could like both those guys more than they like Golden.
Speaker 5: You know, it's just been a lot of buzz about Golden.
Speaker 5: I think a lot of it has to do with
Speaker 5: the speed. He's an outstanding player, but I think there's
Speaker 5: just a group of players that they maybe like a
Speaker 5: little bit better in between. And that's that's kind of
Speaker 5: what I factored in on my selections.
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, that's going to do it for us
Speaker 3: here on the Draft Show. Next time, we're going to
Speaker 3: be on the air six o'clock Central time on Thursday.
Speaker 3: We'll have an hour lead in to get you ready
Speaker 3: for the first thirty two picks on the board will
Speaker 3: be suited and booted. The investigation, the education, all of
Speaker 3: that is done.
