WEBVTT - Player's Lounge: Too Good Not To Take? 0:00:07.920 --> 0:00:10.479 The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 0:00:10.480 --> 0:00:20.680 and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. This is the Players Laube, 0:00:21.160 --> 0:00:25.600 broadcasting live from Dallas Cowboys World headquarters at the Star. 0:00:26.160 --> 0:00:31.280 Now your hosts, Barry Church, Danny McCray, and Newy Scrugs. 0:00:37.760 --> 0:00:41.640 All right, everybody, it is Friday. The NFL Draft Round 0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:44.600 one is in. We are going to spend the next 0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:48.240 hour discussing it, breaking it down, giving you our thoughts. 0:00:48.360 --> 0:00:50.600 Right here, all the players lound, I'm new He Scrubs, 0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:54.160 joined by former Dallas Cowboys defensive backs Danny McCray and 0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:57.160 Barry Church. Fellas, how are we doing on a Friday? 0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:00.920 And how do we feel about see Lamb going to 0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:07.679 the Cowboys at number seventeen the OPA wide. Go ahead, Church, 0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:12.160 I'll let you start this on offer. Well, you know, hey, 0:01:12.959 --> 0:01:15.560 from my from my personal opinion, you know, they don't 0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:17.000 pay me the big bucks to be at GM or 0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:20.760 anything like that. But I mean to me, I don't 0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:23.280 I don't understand the pick. But um, I guess he's 0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:26.119 an explosive wide receiver and we just added a strength 0:01:26.160 --> 0:01:28.880 to a strong position that we already had. Um. For me, 0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:31.000 I thought we were gonna go for sure, without a 0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:34.880 without a doubt cornerback. But I guess the Cowboys felt 0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:37.280 that Ceedee Lamb was that explosive of a playmaker and 0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:39.760 that much of a need for this offense that he 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:41.880 can change the dynamic of everything that he needs to 0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:44.200 go up seventeen. So if he's the highest guy and 0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:46.360 you're born at that time, I guess you choose what 0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:48.640 you know you're highest guy, and they did that with 0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:53.800 Cde Lamb. Hopefully it pays off. Yeah, same here. I mean, 0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:56.480 I know we talked about them drafting the receiver a 0:01:56.480 --> 0:01:58.800 little bit, but we all expected them to go defense. 0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:01.560 I'm not mad at them for going offense. I mean, 0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:04.480 you see the Chiefs, you need to score. I think 0:02:04.960 --> 0:02:07.440 the guy that we had them picking in the first round, 0:02:07.560 --> 0:02:09.960 he didn't get picked at all. So maybe all the 0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:12.560 teams felt the same way as the Cowboys did as 0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:14.840 far as picking that guy. So, and I know they 0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:17.320 didn't expect Ceedee Lamb to fall to them at seventeen, 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:20.679 So having them having him fall there, I think that's 0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:22.640 something that they just figured they couldn't pass up on. 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:25.320 So I'm actually excited about it. I mean, if you 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:28.400 talk about weapons and no excuses. This is a perfect 0:02:28.560 --> 0:02:30.959 perfect storm for no excuses for not being able to 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:35.720 score points on offense, so it should get done well. 0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:38.840 I'm excited the fact that we don't have to hear 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:42.040 Danny talk about an LSU player all the Cowboys toga, 0:02:42.560 --> 0:02:48.440 So I just sit around here and talk about that. 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.600 But you won't know. You all know how I felt. 0:02:51.720 --> 0:02:54.240 I felt they had to go defense, that needed to 0:02:54.240 --> 0:02:58.079 address the defense. But as Bill Parcels used to say 0:02:58.120 --> 0:03:01.160 when he coached the Dallas Cowboys, I reserve the right 0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:06.280 to change my mind. Here you are at seventeen and 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:10.000 you're looking at CD Lamb, who you had ranked sixth 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:12.440 on your board fall to you. So you have the 0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:16.680 ability to get a blue chip player at seventeen. So 0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:19.520 what do you do considering that the other player that 0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:24.320 you like was was caleban Chasing from LSU. I do 0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:26.920 not fault the Cowboys at all for living up to 0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:31.359 their board saying we will take the best player available. Now, 0:03:31.680 --> 0:03:36.200 this pick of CD Lamb is going to be good if, if, 0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:40.680 and only if they use day two and most of 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:44.120 day three addressing the defense. I better not hear another 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:49.600 offensive player Friday at eighty two. Don't talk about some 0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:52.760 tight end. Don't talk about some offensive tackler guard. It 0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:56.600 better be so dog one defense here. The Cowboys with 0:03:56.760 --> 0:03:58.880 Cede Lamb, Hey, they're gonna be able to score thirty 0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:00.720 five a game, but you do not be trying to 0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:03.680 give up forty two. Because my first start is are 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.960 they going to become the alcohol service? Because what are receiving? 0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:15.080 No defense? Stop? Anybody listen. A lot of teams were 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:18.520 following following the path that the Kansas City Chiefs put 0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:21.880 out there. Right. Offense has been it seems like it's 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:25.120 more important than defense, except if you're playing in Miami. 0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:28.680 Everybody else is going offense across the board. Miami has 0:04:29.279 --> 0:04:31.760 three top notch corners, so they can cover these guys. So, 0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:34.880 I mean, I'm not surprised. I'll take it. I really 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.360 I would have hoped that it was justin Jefferson, only 0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:39.800 not because he went the LSU, even though that plays 0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:41.200 a little bit into it. But he's more of a 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:44.160 slot receiver than CD Lamb is, so I thought that 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.240 would have been a better fit at receiver. But I 0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:48.680 don't know GM either. Yeah, and then if you look 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:50.120 at it, if you look at it through this way, 0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:53.360 I mean Gallup has one more year on his contract left. 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:55.520 If I'm not mistaken, that was rookie deal where he 0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:59.440 had two more years left. Two Oh you got two 0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:01.600 more So me, you don't want to maybe have a 0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:03.120 you know, I don't want to have to worry about 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:04.720 him in free agency. You got City Land that can 0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:06.520 step right up in there. So I don't know. But 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.680 if i'm if I'm Michael Gallup, I'm kind of salty. 0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:11.440 I ain't gonna lie, Okay, I'd be kind of salty 0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:14.040 just because you got Amari Cooper who's already proven, got 0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:16.000 a hundred meal, you're on your way up, you got 0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:17.840 over a thousand yards last year. You're thinking, oh, this 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.520 is my time, and then boom there you go take 0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:23.600 that back seat. A first round pick on going to 0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:25.600 be a number three receiver. I don't believe that one. 0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:29.200 He can't be as mad as Aaron Routs this, so 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:33.920 tell him to get over. It can happen to anybody. 0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:37.920 This is true. This is true. Very ill balance out 0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:41.160 what you just said about Gallup here. So Gallup has 0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:44.640 two years left on his contract and Amari Cooper signed 0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:47.680 a five year deal, but it's really a two year 0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:50.440 forty million dollars. Cowboys can get out of this sucker. 0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:52.880 So this is really a two year deal for Cooper. 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:54.720 He can get himself back out on the market. So 0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:57.320 if you're the Cowboys, you make may make the choice 0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:00.320 to say um goodbye to Cooper and you keep Gallup 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.000 if you can keep him out of lower price tag. 0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:05.360 So I'll tell you this, I think right now all 0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:07.560 these guys are gonna be in a real good position 0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:10.120 because Ceedee Lamb is a five year contract for the cowboy. 0:06:10.200 --> 0:06:13.000 So from the cowboy standpoint, at least, you probably gonna 0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:16.200 get yourself stability and you'll make a choice between Gallup 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:19.000 and Cooper along the way. Here. That's my take on 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:22.000 of what I'm seeing right now. Yeah, I have to 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:24.160 agree with you on that one. I mean my take 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:27.600 on if Gallup can make another step forward and this year, 0:06:27.640 --> 0:06:29.280 like we saw last year, how he kind of took 0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:30.960 that big leap, went up for a thousand yards, he 0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:33.240 became that bona fide number two receiver, if he can 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:36.640 take another leap forward this year, I would definitely guarantee 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:38.880 them getting out of that Cooper contract within two years. 0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:40.800 But I just I just don't see him making that 0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:43.280 big of a leap with this with Ceedee Lamb being 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:45.120 on the roster just because there's just not enough balls 0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:46.640 to go around. I mean, you're gonna get that first 0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:49.160 round draft pick his fair share of receptions. You just 0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:51.000 pay them. Mark Cooper a Hunting, he's gonna get his. 0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:53.360 You paid Blake Jarwin, he's gonna get a couple of years. 0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:55.240 So I don't know where the balls go to gallup, 0:06:55.279 --> 0:07:02.960 but we'll see what happens. Yeah, work out. So mccraig, overall, 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:07.720 when you look at what this offense is, where do 0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:11.200 you see Ezekiel Elliott in terms of you know, now 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:13.880 they've got these shiny weapons here, they're gonna go three 0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:17.760 wide here, um, and what do you see the Cowboys do? 0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:21.200 And how does Michae McCarthy make this work? I see, 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.040 I see a heavy eleven personnel. I see a lot 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:27.880 of zone read between Dak and Zeke, and I see 0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.280 a lot of Amari Cooper in the slot. I see 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:34.239 them using Amari Cooper similar to how New Orleans uses 0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:36.560 Michael Thomas and puts them everywhere on the field and 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:39.760 maximizes any matchup that they see that they can take 0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:43.160 advantage of. So I still see them splitting it, splitting it, 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:46.040 running pass. But I see a lot of zeke uh 0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:51.520 and a lot of a lot of coop. Okay, So Church, 0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:54.400 go back to the drafting of Ceedee Lamb. They're sitting 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:58.160 here at seventeen. They've got the ability to take a corner. 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:01.640 They can take Christian bellas you you can take Trade 0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:05.040 Giggs right there. You've got the defensive edge player in 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:08.960 in Caliban chasing, and they go for Cede Lamb. So initially, 0:08:09.080 --> 0:08:11.080 just just what was your thoughts when you heard them 0:08:11.160 --> 0:08:15.320 call out CD Lamb at seventeen? My initial thoughts, I 0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:17.840 mean I started laughing, and I mean I was like, man, 0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:21.320 leaving up to them boys to throw a wrench in 0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:24.200 your plans. But I mean for me, it was just, 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:26.680 you know, you lost so much defensively. I mean, you 0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:28.880 lost your quarterback in the secondary and Jeff Heed you 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.840 lost your top cornerback and Byron Jones, and you're left 0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:34.240 with three corners who U they're not they haven't really 0:08:34.320 --> 0:08:37.599 been balls savvy outside of George Lewis, who's primarily a 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:40.000 slot corner. So I just felt like, this is this 0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:42.120 is the draft. It was cornerback deep. I mean, you 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:44.240 had your choices. I mean the guy from Florida, he 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:46.360 was taking off the board. I think Jacksonville got him 0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:48.400 a little bit earlier than the Cowboys picked. But other 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:50.280 than that, I mean, you had your choices at corner 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:53.600 so and safety so um and defensive line as well, 0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:56.320 even though they took your boy from South Carolina earlier. 0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:58.000 But other than that, I mean they had their choice 0:08:58.000 --> 0:09:00.959 of defensive players. They chose to go offense, maybe just 0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:03.280 because they wanted to make that strength, like I said before, 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:07.280 the receiving corps even stronger for Dak Prescott. But we'll see, man, 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:09.440 I mean they, like you said, MC, creator's no excuses 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:11.640 now with this loaded offense, They've got to be putting 0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:17.760 up hello points out there. Got to Now, if I'm 0:09:17.880 --> 0:09:22.199 Dak Prescott, I look at all these weapons here, and 0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:26.360 there's no excuse. I mean, especially when he signed to 0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:29.440 this contract. Okay, when he signs to this contract, there 0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:34.880 is no excuse at all. There are weapons galore everywhere 0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:37.520 you go. I'm not gonna say they're Kansas City. I 0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:39.280 think that's a little bit unfair to try and put 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:41.200 them in that Kansas City category, because I mean they're 0:09:41.320 --> 0:09:45.240 they're just their own group. But I'm expecting these guys 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:48.120 to put up points in a New Orleans Saints type 0:09:48.160 --> 0:09:52.200 of fashion. They're pretty good at that. Sean Sean Payton 0:09:52.280 --> 0:09:54.240 does a great job of scheming, and I'm expecting Mike 0:09:54.360 --> 0:09:56.760 McCarthy to do the same thing. So needless to say, 0:09:57.400 --> 0:09:59.559 in my fantasy football league, I will not be able 0:09:59.600 --> 0:10:02.760 to get down Prescott and eleventh round like I did 0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:06.600 last year, or Michael Gallup in a round thirteen. Okay, 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:09.600 this is going to be I mean, look, Dak Prescott, 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:11.679 I mean, if he's not in the Pro Bowl next year, 0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:13.959 you're gonna shake your head, right, I mean you, you 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:18.840 aren't gonna shake here with all these weapons. We lost 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:28.240 a Nui, you still got him. No, Yeah, I can 0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:32.520 hear you was breaking in and out. Okay, we're good, 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:38.640 We're good. So so Church, what are you expecting from 0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:40.719 Dak Prescott now that they've added CD Lamb into this 0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:44.920 line I couldn't hear one more time? Say it again 0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:48.000 one more time? I said, what do you expect from 0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:51.680 Dak Prescott now that they've added CD Lamb into this lineup? 0:10:53.600 --> 0:10:56.839 I expect them to be extremely balanced. I feel like 0:10:56.880 --> 0:10:59.640 they tried to do that last year, but Dak had 0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:01.880 that head start in the first three games, so they 0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:04.040 kind of went heavy pass and then they went back 0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:06.199 to heavy run. They really couldn't find themselves later on 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:08.400 in the season. But I feel like this year, especially 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:10.280 with Mike McCarthy at the him, I feel like they'll 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:12.760 be extremely balanced. I mean, they get the best running 0:11:12.760 --> 0:11:14.400 back in the league right now, and then you have 0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:17.000 three bona fire receivers out there. I mean, you got 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:18.719 Ceede Lamb, who he hasn't had a snap yet in 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:21.200 the NFL, but I'm expecting big things out of him. 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:23.640 I feel like, like you just said, Mike McCarthy, he's 0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:26.120 a great schemer. He's able to get his playmakers open 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:27.640 and get them the ball. So I feel like they'll 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:29.160 be able to pass the ball around a lot. So 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:31.960 I see them being extremely balanced. I still see them 0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:34.599 starting off with the run note, getting things dominated on 0:11:34.640 --> 0:11:36.200 the run side of the ball before they opened up 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:38.240 the pass, kind of like we saw back at two 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:40.400 years ago when they won a division. So I feel 0:11:40.440 --> 0:11:43.800 like it's going to be extremely balanced team offensively wise, 0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:45.720 and hopefully on the defense we can get a little 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:47.679 something to help us out back there. But offensively we 0:11:47.720 --> 0:11:54.080 should be just fine. McCray, What are you expected from 0:11:54.120 --> 0:12:44.319 that next year? M okay. So when I when I 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:48.880 when I look here at what Mike McCarthy is able 0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:51.199 to set up this offense. To me, I think of 0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:53.679 just pressure. That's what I'm thinking. That they're gonna be 0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:56.160 able to put some pressure on teams, of pressure on defenses. 0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:58.640 And then when I look across the NFC East, because 0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:00.680 ultimately that's what you got to do for you gotta 0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:04.120 win your division first. And if you win that division 0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:06.160 first by putting pressure on guys, well, I tell you 0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:08.320 what this is really good. Now. I know Washington took 0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:11.200 Chase Young in the first round them, I look at 0:13:11.240 --> 0:13:14.040 the Giants defense, and if we know they had question 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:16.360 marks of the DV position there, and we know that 0:13:16.480 --> 0:13:18.959 the Eagles had issues with their DV situation. I know 0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:21.439 they got Darius Slay, but he's just one guy. M 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:23.680 The Cowboys are going to be able in this division 0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:27.080 to really make guys decide, hey, how do you cover 0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:28.560 this team? And if they got to play a lot 0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:31.960 of diamond nickel here, then maybe you have an opportunity 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:35.240 before to me get Ezekiel Elliott your pass game more. 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:37.040 We know Tony Poll can do some more in the 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:41.359 pass game, and if they give Blake Jarwin more opportunities 0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:43.440 that catch the ball down the field, down the scene, 0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:47.439 this offense, man, I'm telling you, this offense should do 0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:49.640 its part to put up the points. And maybe by 0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:51.960 putting up points they help their defense because they can 0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:53.959 make another team one dimensional that they have to try 0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:58.240 and match the points they put up Church were spent. Yeah, 0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:02.000 you know, after my first disappointment of the draft pick, 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:03.599 now I'm starting to you know, things are starting to 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:05.079 come back to me, and I'm starting to think maybe 0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:07.679 this offense could be a little a little dangerous out there. 0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:09.760 Like you said, I mean, you can pick your poison 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:12.559 out there. You got Jarwin, who's a mismatched nightmare for 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:15.000 any linebacker, any safety, and if you do decide to 0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:17.160 throw a corner on them, he's too big for them. So, 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:19.000 like you were saying, that dime package, and if they 0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:20.880 do though dime, then that's when you feed Zeke. With 0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:22.920 only one linebacker in there, there's no way you can 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.480 stop this running attack. So they can be extremely dangerous. 0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:27.920 And that's not even bringing in the receivers into account. 0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:30.160 You know, the sliding cde Land if they chose to 0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:33.280 put them there Cooper Gallop so that these guys are 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:35.960 extremely dangerous. They have a great offensive line in front 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:39.200 of them, So, like you said, there's no excuses for 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.720 this offense to not produce Hella points and put pressure 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:45.360 on opposing teams and hopefully, you know, it relieves a 0:14:45.360 --> 0:14:47.680 little bit of pressure off this defense. Knowing that this offense, 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:50.800 if they perform to the potential, can go out there 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:53.040 and outscore anybody no matter how many points their defense 0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:55.440 gives up. So if that's the philosophy going forward, I 0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:58.000 hope it works out for them, But they gotta make 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:00.640 sure this offense is poting it all point because I 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:02.360 don't feel like this defense is going to be able 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:05.200 to stop much of anything unless they get a lot 0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:07.480 of great dram choices coming up in these next couple 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:11.880 of rounds. One thing that struck me as interesting McCray 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:14.800 is when when Jerry Jones was talking with the media, 0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:17.360 he said he wanted CD Lamb to wear number eighty 0:15:17.400 --> 0:15:21.680 eight because it was a fellow for Arkansas, and the 0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:24.000 CD Lamb said he came out war number ten and 0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:26.960 in my media thought was Jerry dump dead. We can 0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:31.960 end the death discussion. Okay, let's bring back dead. It's 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:33.800 like Jerry's like, I don't I don't know who he 0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.040 is anywhere. I want seed either where in the eighty eight. 0:15:36.120 --> 0:15:39.160 So so death talk done? Okay, right? Am I right there? Death? 0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:41.840 How did I know? How did I know that Den 0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:44.280 was gonna come up today? I knew that you had 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:46.160 to put a knife in it. New it. I knew 0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:48.120 you had to put a knife in it. But yes, 0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:51.480 we talked to the masses want death back. You know, 0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:55.080 we see the best Cowboys Twitter. Okay, we see it. 0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:59.600 I said now, I said, now, the desk talk coming 0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:07.560 back to the Cowboys is officially dead. It's over not happening. Yeah, yeah, 0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:11.120 I think it's. Yeah, it's officially done. I mean, you know, 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:13.440 I don't think they'll be they'll be posting any more 0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:16.720 of des Brown workout videos on you know, on Dalla 0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:19.440 Stowboys dot com or anything like that. I mean, it's 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:21.840 it's so crazy how the world changes like that. Man, 0:16:21.880 --> 0:16:24.800 I mean, one minute, bring him back. He can do it. 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:27.880 He can be our slot receiver, even even our tight end. 0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:31.280 And then next day isn't eighty eight Oh that CD lamb? 0:16:31.280 --> 0:16:34.160 What you're talking about like, I mean, it's it's crazy. 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:41.880 It's crazy. This man go. He gonna give eighty eight 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:44.440 to It's had a fantastic run. We know what his 0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:50.800 numbers are with the Cowboys, but it don't I mean, 0:16:51.120 --> 0:16:53.160 so so Lamb is wearing ten, So the eighty eight, 0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:54.840 I don't know. Maybe they just put it on ice 0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:57.160 for a minute right now. But but but Dez is 0:16:57.200 --> 0:17:00.840 not coming back. Jerry Jerry Jerry Stock have a dream 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:03.560 and shower about disk because he's got CD lay So 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:12.040 so that's what. They're still friends. Yes, they're still friends. 0:17:12.119 --> 0:17:13.760 He can still come to the sweet and watch the games. 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:15.800 I do think Dez will play in the NFL as year, 0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:17.480 but clearly it won't be for the Cowboys. But I 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:19.960 tell you what, let us take a break right now. 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:23.240 Rounds two and three R tonight.

Back to 0:19:39.040 --> 0:19:49.440 the Players Loud Friday meets Players Lounge right here on 0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:52.359 Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio nw he scrugs joined by 0:19:52.359 --> 0:19:56.760 former Dallas Cowboys defensive players Danny McCrae and Barry church 0:19:56.880 --> 0:20:02.600 So Cede Lamb is the guy we all thought they'd 0:20:02.640 --> 0:20:05.480 go defense. But the three of us are okay, because 0:20:05.560 --> 0:20:08.560 Cede Lamb was a top six guy on the Cowboys draft. Ward, 0:20:08.600 --> 0:20:10.480 you got a blue chip player, so they get a 0:20:10.520 --> 0:20:12.640 blue ship player at seventeen, no matter the position. Fine, 0:20:12.680 --> 0:20:16.440 we'll go with that. But today, round two, pick fifty one, 0:20:16.840 --> 0:20:21.440 it must be defense. Round three, pick eighty two, it 0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:28.080 must be defense. Gentlemen, are we all in agreement on that? Yes, yes, 0:20:28.240 --> 0:20:32.439 I agree, offense office should be done. Okay, Now I'm 0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:35.240 gonna give you some Mott drafts from two people I 0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:37.480 like following in their work. One is Dane Bruger, who 0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:39.880 also does work with us right here at Dallas Cowboys 0:20:39.920 --> 0:20:43.200 dot Com. So at number fifty one, he's got Treylon Diggs, 0:20:43.240 --> 0:20:45.240 the corner from Alabama. He picks he can fall to 0:20:45.320 --> 0:20:49.000 fifty one in the second round. And this is he's 0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:53.200 got them picking Diggs over Grant Helpit, Christian Fulton, Ross 0:20:53.240 --> 0:20:57.879 Blacklock defensive tackle from TCU, and Kyle Dugger the safety. 0:20:57.880 --> 0:21:00.879 What do you think about that? Church, I'm I'm one 0:21:00.960 --> 0:21:03.879 hundred percent agreement with that one. Um. You know, Diggs 0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:05.679 was my first round picked from the jump. So if 0:21:05.680 --> 0:21:09.920 they can pick up Ceedee Lamb as well as get 0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:12.440 Diggs later in or get Digs in the second round, 0:21:12.480 --> 0:21:14.119 I think that that would be a great haul for him. 0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:16.240 This is a long, linky kid, like I said before, 0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:19.119 that can pretty much run with anybody, and he's physical 0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:20.840 as well. So this is a corner that, you know, 0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:23.320 the Cowboys need, especially with the loss of Byron Jones. 0:21:23.800 --> 0:21:25.199 And a lot of people were saying, you know, get 0:21:25.280 --> 0:21:27.760 the safety out of Alabama and McKinney. But um, if 0:21:27.800 --> 0:21:29.560 you got you know how high Clinton Dick's back there, 0:21:29.560 --> 0:21:32.040 and you got Woods back there who have had NFL 0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:34.400 experience and they're both you know, pretty solid safeties back there. 0:21:34.680 --> 0:21:37.000 I don't think he's in. He's a need as a necessity, 0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:40.399
