Have you got rested and covered from the 14 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: draft over the weekend? You know, I was just thinking 15 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,279 Speaker 1: when I was kind of looking at all my stuff, 16 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: I'm going, gosh, the draft seems like it was a 17 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,759 Speaker 1: year ago. It was only but three four days ago 18 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 1: it finished, and it seems like it's been so long. 19 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 1: But yes, I have recovered. Oh yeah, and uh and 20 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:24,559 Speaker 1: you've got uh. Let's see copious amount of copy here 21 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: between Draft Choice bios last year's stats, round by round 22 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: the Cowboys nine picks, and this is my big green 23 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: notebook here. There you go. That's right, I've got my 24 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: big green notebook here, which I haven't put back in 25 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 1: the drawer for next year. I've still will use it 26 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: for a little bit. Dude, look back and analyze not 27 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: only what the Cowboys did in the draft, but all 28 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: the mistakes that other teams made of the draft. But 29 00:01:55,440 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: first off, are you disappointed that you will not be 30 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: covering a Cowboys game either in the UK or in 31 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 1: Germany or in Mexico City. Absolutely, especially not in the 32 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: UK or Germany, since I haven't been to Germany before, 33 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: I would be a good way to go. And you know, 34 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: I was, you know the Cowboys. There's a Cowboys fan 35 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: club in London, and I was on with him during 36 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: the draft and they were they were pretty hopeful that 37 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: the Cowboys would be returning for one of those four 38 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: games out in Europe, and they were interviewing Will McClay. 39 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: I believe it was before I came on and they 40 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: asked him to question and Will said, the Cowboys vice 41 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: president of a player personnel said, it doesn't look like 42 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: it's going to work out this year. And those guys were, oh, 43 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 1: come on, no, there's four games out here, and so 44 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: I was braced for the letdown that came out today 45 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: that they won't be returning to London. And here are 46 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: the international games as announced this morning on the NFL Network. 47 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: Starting on October second, at Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium, it'll be 48 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:25,239 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings against the New Orleans Saints to be broadcast. 49 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: That's a Sunday morning game eight thirty Dallas time on 50 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: the NFL Network. The following week, October ninth, the Giants 51 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: will play the Packers at same stadium NFL Network at 52 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: eight thirty. And then the end of October, on October 53 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: thirtieth at Wimbley Stadium is when the Jacksonville Jaguars will 54 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: play the Denver Broncos in what is basically their annual 55 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: game at Wimbley Stadium this year for Jacksonville. And that's 56 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: where we thought perhaps if the Cowboys were going to 57 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: go to London, it's because they're scheduled to play at Jacksonville. 58 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: So they will be playing at Jacksonville and not in 59 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: London against Jacksonville this year. And then the other two 60 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: games that are added in Munich first game in Germany. 61 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: It's the Seattle Seahawks and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And 62 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: I think that was announced actually at the draft, right, 63 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: and that isn't on November thirteenth, also a Sunday morning game. 64 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: And then the Mexico City game is a Monday night 65 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: game November twenty first, San Francisco and Arizona. That might 66 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: be Troy Aikman's birthday November twenty first. I gotta look 67 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: it up, so he will be spending his birthday in 68 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: Mexico City because it's an ESPNC. That's an ESPN Monday 69 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: night game. I thought when I saw that come out, Oh, 70 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: that's right, it's an ESPY and he's a Monday night 71 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: football now right, right, And the thought occurred to me, Well, 72 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: for the first time in about twenty years, Troy Aikman 73 00:04:53,200 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: is going to be home for Thanksgiving, right yeah. And 74 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: at first I was thinking, Oh, Troy's gotta do He's 75 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: he's doing a Monday night game, and then he's got 76 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: to turn around and do Thursday. No, he doesn't do Thursday. Boy, 77 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: he's at ESPN. So I heard one theory on why 78 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, you know, because last time they went to London, 79 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: they played Jacksonville, and it's it. I heard one theory 80 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: that because of the Cowboy fans all over the country here, 81 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: that if they show up for an away game, that's 82 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: usually a big sellout game for that team. And so 83 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: when they go to Jacksonville, you know, the Cowboy fans 84 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: can find tickets to that game, right right, And so yeah, 85 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: and you know, I don't know that Jerry still wants 86 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: to give up a home game to go and play 87 00:05:55,520 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: in London. Yeah, so so yeah, I am disappointed. And 88 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: it is, by the way, November twenty first, it is okay, 89 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: very good. Why do I know that? Yeah? Why do 90 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: you because spond with somebody else that's more important in 91 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: your life. No, Troy is very import all right. Do 92 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: you want to know how old he'll be in November 93 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: twenty first? I am going to guests, Uh fifty five, 94 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: fifty six? That was good, very good? All right? All right, 95 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: So there are your international games for twenty twenty two, 96 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: which means the Cowboys are more likely to play an 97 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: international game in twenty twenty three now, although probably not 98 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: unless they're the visiting team. Yeah. Yeah, So, and since 99 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: we're talking schedules, the NFL schedule is slated to come 100 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: out next Thursday, so May twelfth, And as I pointed 101 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: out in mix shots, they're coming out on Dallas Cowboys 102 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: dot com today. They're going to start on May ninth 103 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: and start releasing other significant games like Thanksgiving, each team's 104 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: home opener. And I'm guessing if all that's coming out 105 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 1: by May twelfth, before the official announced, we're gonna know. 106 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna know when we convene for even though it'll 107 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: be official, when we convene for mix shots at eleven 108 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: thirty next Thursday, some seven or eight hours before the 109 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: official announcement, it will be leaked. I guarantee you, as 110 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: I as I pointed out with my little comment that 111 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: if the Supreme Court can't keep a secret, the NFL 112 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: probably can't keep a secret. That's right. Yea usually comes 113 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: out about an hour before they officially announced it. Anyway, 114 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: this one's gonna be days you much? Yeah? All right? Okay, 115 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: So where do we start? As far as you want 116 00:07:55,440 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: to see my draft order picture, you're one, it's the 117 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: nine draft picks, remember Jerry with the holding that sucker 118 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: up there? Yeah? Um? So do we start at the 119 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: very beginning? Yeah? Let's you know overall. Um, And I 120 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: think one thing that people don't take into account was 121 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys were drafting twenty fourth unless you wanted to 122 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: give up draft picks to move up. Um, the reason 123 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: you're drafting twenty fourth is because you ended up with 124 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: a twelve and five record. And they make it more 125 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: difficult for the teams that got into the playoffs, advanced 126 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Uh, go to the super Bowl to 127 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: get the top talent, because this is a league that 128 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: they'll meek shell inherent and so the least be first, 129 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: That's right, And that's why everybody's going crazy about Well, 130 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: look what the Giants did, and look what Philadelphia did, 131 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: and look what Washington did. Well, yeah, they were drafting 132 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: higher because they were poor, and not so much Philadelphia, 133 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: but uh, the Giants in Washington, you know, so that 134 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: they get the opportunity to get the best talent in 135 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: the draft. And the Eagles were poor the year before 136 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: and they made use of that by acquiring draft drafts 137 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: and then exactly so they're supposed to get better. That's 138 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 1: that's the idea of this whole socialized uh NFL process. 139 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 1: But I think from where the Cowboys were and what 140 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: they were trying to accomplish. I think they did a 141 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: pretty good job. Now we can argue this, this and this, 142 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: but one of the things I think people need to 143 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: take into consideration is, and I'll just take the first pick. 144 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: When they took Tyler Smith, uh, the guard tackle out 145 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 1: of Tulsa at twenty four, there wasn't another offensive tackle 146 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: taken until the third round. So if you had this 147 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: guy high and you took a different position, the talent 148 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: level obviously went down after Tyler Smith because no one 149 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: else thought a tackle was worth taken until the third round. 150 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: And when it came to guards, the only guard taken 151 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 1: after Tyler Smith. Tyler Smith was the infamous cole Very 152 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: Strange pick by the Patriots, number twenty nine. What do 153 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: you think those people did when they saw that pick? 154 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: Which people the Patriots the Patriots fans right? And there 155 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: were only two more guards taken in the second round, 156 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: and so the talent level at those positions fell off. 157 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: And I think there's some folks that think that the 158 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 1: Cowboys took Tyler Smith like they got the twenty four 159 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: They didn't know what to do and it's like, Okay, 160 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: let's take this guy. If they were going to do 161 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: this in the first round with a guard tackle or 162 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: a tackle guard, however you want to look at it. 163 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 1: His name started coming up at least the day before. 164 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 1: I didn't know much about him because the draft experts 165 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: didn't know much about him, and they were on to 166 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 1: him heading into the draft. So just because his name 167 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: wasn't familiar to everybody that does mock drafts, and some 168 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: of them failed miserably in their mock drafts, I saw 169 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: it an over thirty two. By the way, you know, 170 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: they don't know what they're doing either. So I just thought, 171 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: you have to look at if I take this guy here, 172 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: then what's the next position that maybe I need that 173 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: has guys in the second round that I can use 174 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: and maybe into the third round. Because all the wide 175 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: receivers were gone, right, six of them, six went in 176 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: the first eighteen picks, right, Uh, and the top offensive 177 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: tackles were already off the board. So unless they were 178 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: going to go there were six offensive linehind them. So 179 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: that's twelve right of the and so unless they were 180 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: gonna go defense, uh, this was I mean, this was 181 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,559 Speaker 1: gonna be their pick. Okay. So Tyler Smith, obviously he's 182 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 1: he's very young, just turned twenty one April third. Why 183 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 1: do I know that? No? Uh, I know that. And 184 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 1: and someone very close to me, my mother. So there 185 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: you go, very good, all right. So so I'll always 186 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 1: remember that he's got April. You know, Michael Parsons is 187 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: May twenty six. You know how I know that someone 188 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: very close to me's birthdays in May twenty six? That 189 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: would be me. You know, I'm gonna give you a funny, Okay. 190 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: So I didn't know anything about the significance of April 191 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: twentieth except that was my parents' anniversary. And then I 192 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: found out that April twentieth had something to do with 193 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: smoking weed all day long. Fight, that's right. I had 194 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: no idea. Okay, we know anyway, Okay, all right, So, uh, 195 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,679 Speaker 1: he's so young. He's basically has just started two seasons 196 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,719 Speaker 1: at the group of five level at Tulsa UM. Converted 197 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: to offensive line as a junior in high school, so 198 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: he hasn't played the position all that long. Um, But 199 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: why then? And so those are some of the reasons 200 00:13:55,760 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: that the so called experts did not have him. He's 201 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: not a finished product, Okay, he is. There is a 202 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: projection on what he's going to be in the NFL. 203 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: The Cowboys believe that because he has the tools that 204 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: he has, he can start immediately or they're going to 205 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: give him an opportunity to start immediately inside at guard 206 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: and we'll see. But why do you think the Cowboys 207 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: had him ranked as high as they had him, which 208 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: was above the two guards who probably who might in 209 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: the case of Kenyon Green, I think he would be 210 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: a better offensive guard this season, probably than what Tyler 211 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: Smith will be. And Zion Johnson was considered by a 212 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: lot of people to be the top offensive guard in 213 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: this draft, although he went behind Kenyon Green in the draft. So, 214 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: but why did the Cowboys have Tyler Smith rank so high? 215 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: And why was he a priority for them regardless of 216 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: all the tackles being off the board. Why do they 217 00:14:56,040 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: like this guy? I think this is a out. This 218 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: is like playing craps. You put money on the combline, 219 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: and that's what I think what they're doing here. And 220 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: I think they feel like it's safer for him to 221 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 1: start off at guard, where you have sure it's like 222 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: playing bumper cars, right, You're in the middle of two 223 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: bumper cars and you're a little bit safer and the 224 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: fact that it looks like he has some physical traits 225 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: that are conducive to eventually playing tackle. And the knock 226 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: everybody gave on him is because somebody once wrote that 227 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: he had all these holding penalties, and I thought, if 228 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: you go to Dallas Cowboys dot com, Nick Eatman did 229 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: a very good job of getting a hold of the 230 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: head coach at Tulsa and yeah, and he explained that 231 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: a lot of his penalties came because he was dominant 232 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: eating people and that he's got such strong hands. It's 233 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: as like when Tyrant Smith got here and they were 234 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: like and Nate started this, it was like he's and 235 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: that's you know, the hotel. Once they grab you, you 236 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 1: can't get away. And he felt like the guy would 237 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: dominate people so badly and see somebody on the ground 238 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, well he must have held him 239 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: or you know, had committed a penalty. So I think 240 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: that's what the Cowboys were looking at for what he 241 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: can give him down the road. And as for Kenyan Greene, 242 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: the medical report on him suggested that in a year 243 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: or two he may not be in the league because 244 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: of degenerative knee problem that he had, and the Cowboys 245 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: were very, very skeptical about taking him, to the point 246 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: they hope that they didn't have to make that to 247 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: see I'm gonna I'm gonna read the Cowboys mind. Okay, 248 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: I don't think that they would have drafted regardless even 249 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 1: if Kenyan Green was healthy, right, and Zion Johnson. I 250 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 1: don't think if if let's say Tyler Smith was not 251 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: in this draft, wasn't available, and you had Kenyon Green 252 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: or Zion Johnson as your choice is there, they would 253 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: not They would not have taken either one or no. 254 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 1: They would have taken the defensive Lloyd. Even they could 255 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: have even taken Dax Hill whoever. You know, they would 256 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: have taken best player or tried to trade down. They 257 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: probably would have traded down and then taken whatever. See this. 258 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:40,880 Speaker 1: But the reason that Tyler Smith is more valued in 259 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: that room than all those other guys is because they 260 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: project him to eventually be Tyrn Smith's replacement at left tackle. Right. 261 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: That's why he is the first round draft pick. That 262 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: is why he was ranked as high on their board too. 263 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 1: Is that's what scouts do. It's not just what that 264 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: product is right now, it's what this guy can be 265 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: in the future, and that is why that was more 266 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: valuable to them than any other position on the board. 267 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: That whether they're going to come out and say it 268 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: or not, they look at him because we'll see how 269 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: much longer Tyrn Smith can play. They but especially since 270 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 1: he's only twenty one years old. Tyler Smith, right, they 271 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: look at him. It could be four years from now, okay, 272 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 1: his second contract, even if Tyrn hopefully he'll be able 273 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: to play five more years whatever, But they look at 274 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: Tyler Smith as being his eventual replacement. And with Tyrn Smith, 275 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: it's an unknown, right Can he play another year? Can 276 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 1: you play two years? Can he play three years? With 277 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: guys like that that are kind of and he's not 278 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: that old, right, he's gonna turn thirty. He's thirty one, 279 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: I think right now. But it could end any time. 280 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: And at that point then you're going to be in 281 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: a draft going, oh my god, I gotta take somebody. Well, no, 282 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: I've already got that no matter when it happens. And 283 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: I and if he can play guard, then he can 284 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 1: transition anytime to the tackle position. Instead of saying I'm 285 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: going into the draft and I gotta have this, they 286 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 1: already have it in place. So it's almost like a 287 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: term insurance policy. And so in the meantime he can 288 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: play guard until he's needed at tackle or if he 289 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: who knows, maybe he won't develop. I mean, that's the 290 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: that's it's a crapshoot. Sometimes you don't know for sure 291 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 1: how these guys are going to develop. That's why it's 292 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: an inexact science. And the guard position we talked about 293 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 1: it last week. The guard position is not a highly 294 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: valued spot. See here's what they could have done if 295 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 1: they did not take a guard, if they did not 296 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: value Tyler Smith that great late okay, and they didn't 297 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: want to take a guard in the first round, they 298 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: could have done what the Washington commanders did. Washington at 299 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 1: a need for a guard, and the day after the draft, 300 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: on Monday, they signed Trede Turner, a veteran free agent 301 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 1: who they are very familiar with because Ron Rivera and 302 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: Carrie when he was at Carolina. They drafted him in 303 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: the third round. He made the Pro Bowl five years 304 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: they signed him to a very economical one year, three 305 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: million dollar contract the Cowboy. If the if the Cowboys 306 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: did not satisfy that need in this draft, they would 307 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: have been for instance, right in the market for a 308 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: trade turner, and so they weren't desperate to fill that position. 309 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 1: They had other alternatives. That's how highly they feel about 310 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 1: Tyler Smith as his eventual uh you know, being a 311 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 1: guy a fixture on this offensive line maybe for the 312 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: next decade. And the other thing that would have happened 313 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 1: is they would have further entertained those trade down offers 314 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: because they had them. If they were going to take 315 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: somebody else, they could have traded down. But they found 316 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: out one of the teams trying to trade up to 317 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:08,239 Speaker 1: their spot. I believe that was the guy that yet 318 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 1: they wanted Tyler Smith. So yeah, it's like other people 319 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: knew about him, uh and knew about his value at 320 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: that point in the first round because they're looking at 321 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: the same board basically that the Cowboys are looking at. 322 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: They all basically have these players graded about the same 323 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: and they saw that the next true offensive tackle on 324 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: the board was Bernard Ryman, who wound up going in 325 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,360 Speaker 1: the third round, right, you know, And so they did 326 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 1: not have a as high you know they they were 327 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: which the experts going in the first round, yeah, some 328 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: some did. Yeah. So anyway, so that's that's the first pick, 329 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: and I think after that the value picks. I you know, 330 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: the Sam Williams thing. Guy's pretty talented pass rusher. Now 331 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 1: I don't know about playing the run, but he can 332 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,959 Speaker 1: get to the quarterback. That was twelve and a half sacks. 333 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: I think ten and a half in the regular regular season. 334 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: Twelve and a half sacks. No nobody had Old Miss 335 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: has had that many sacks in a single season. And 336 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: by the way, that was playing a five technique in 337 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: a three man front, right, And I think that you know, 338 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: with his hand on the ground as a four technique, um, 339 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: he might be even more explosive there. Um so. And 340 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 1: then maybe the steel of the draft is the third 341 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: round pick Jalen Tolber, wide receiver South. I started looking 342 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 1: at his stuff, and he had speed, he had catch radius, 343 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 1: and he has the ability to play all three wide 344 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 1: receiver spots. And I had it on good authority of 345 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: someone that's seen him play multiple times that they didn't 346 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: understand why he wasn't a higher draft pick than twenty 347 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: fourth in the third round eighty eight eighty eight overall 348 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: couldn't understand it. So we'll keep an eye on that guy. 349 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 1: If he can come in and do what he did 350 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: at South End, and evidently he had some he had 351 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 1: some bigger schools interested in him, and they came in 352 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: late and he had committed to South Alabama and decided 353 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: to stick with his uh, stick with his commitment there. 354 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: As if you're watching on Dallas Cowboys dot Com here 355 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,120 Speaker 1: you can see some of that video of Jalen Tilbert. 356 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: You know, he's he was a late bloomer also because 357 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: he didn't he didn't really play much his first couple 358 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: of years at South Alabama, but then started the last 359 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:59,719 Speaker 1: three years there. And I'm told go watch this. He 360 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: was at the Senior Bowl. Yes, go watch the Senior Yeah, 361 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: in fact, I watched it this morning. Yep, he was 362 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 1: impressive at the Senior Bowl. And of course eighty two 363 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: catches nearly fifteen hundred yards and eight touchdowns is last 364 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 1: year at South Alabama six one and a quarter one 365 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 1: ninety five ran a four four nine. I've got him 366 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: down with a ten yards split up one forty nine, 367 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: which is really quick, and I'm looking to see. I 368 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: don't have in my notes here the other offers that 369 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 1: he had. But yeah, he's from Mobile, Alabama and wanted 370 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: to stay close to home and played at South Alabama. 371 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,479 Speaker 1: Of course, he also had the option then after his 372 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: junior season, in which he had sixty four catches for 373 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: over a thousand yards and eight touchdowns at the transfer portal, 374 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: he could have transferred to a bigger school even last 375 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: year and decided to stay at South Alabama. He should 376 00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: have held out for more money. I saw I read 377 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 1: a story today about the coaches wanting to fix that 378 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: transfer portal, to put a limit on when and when 379 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: you can transfer, have a transfer portal season. And then 380 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: after they've done that, I mean they've May first was 381 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 1: the deadline, right, And so that's why it came to 382 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: a head here the last few days and why they're 383 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: the last of the transfer portals are now coming out, 384 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: including the pit wide receiver, right. I think they wanted 385 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: to shorten that so college know their number of scholarships available. 386 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: You know what's interesting about that, not to fully digress 387 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: to that, the fact that it's May first is which 388 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: has got to be very frustrating to college coaches, is 389 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: that's after spring ball. So you've worked with these these whoever, 390 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 1: whether it's a receiver or anybody, you've worked with them. 391 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: You've you've invested all the time into them throughout spring ball, 392 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: and then they decide after after this spring game that 393 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to be here anyway, right, and they 394 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: transfer someplace else. And if they do, so, if you're 395 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 1: going to do it, make it a spring break deal. 396 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,199 Speaker 1: I mean, make it like March fifteenth, or you can 397 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: do it at the signing day, you know, the high 398 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: school signing day, which is the first Wednesday in February. 399 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 1: Actually that would be more fair because now they're handing 400 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 1: out scholarships. You know, Okay, I got two more available. 401 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 1: Now they don't have any more available, right, make your 402 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: decision like they do for the NFL. You know where 403 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: you're transferring, you know. But but then the comeback on 404 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: that is, well, there are coaching openings that happen and 405 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 1: after signing day whatever, and I get it. Coaches are 406 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: free to go, so players should be free. If there's 407 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 1: no there's no scholarship limit on coaches. He hire as 408 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: many as you want whenever you want. These guys. You 409 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: only have what twenty five a year, yeah, eighty five 410 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,399 Speaker 1: to eighty five total. Yeah, there's no limit on your coaches. 411 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: And there's a there's a deadline on when those renew 412 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 1: so at the renewal date, that's when the transfer portal 413 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: needs to be settled. Yeah, there you go, all right, 414 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: But anyway, yeah, all right, So we will come back 415 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: and dive into the rest of these nine picks the 416 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys made and some of these undrafted guys that have 417 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: caught their eye as well.

Oh you're frustrated? Yes? 463 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,479 Speaker 1: What frustrating? You only have to watch the first period? 464 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: Well it got better than that. All the score didn't 465 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: change goal right, one goal. The end of the first 466 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: period was heated, Yes, there was. Should you how long 467 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: they had the rule about the second fight. I didn't 468 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: realize that there must be a new rule. You're you're 469 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: a hockey game? Yeah, I forgot got talking about? Is 470 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: two players? Uh? It was Klingberg for the Stars and 471 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: Anderson for Calgary were ejected from the game because they 472 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: had Well, no, it was the second fight. Second fight 473 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: is with the way they termed it, and by a rule, 474 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: they're ejected from the game. Maybe that rule is so 475 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: good that they don't do it anymore. Yeah, I was thinking, 476 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: you know what, that is a great idea. There's a 477 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: fight that breaks out and then you go find the 478 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 1: best player on the other team and you pick a 479 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: fight with it the game getting out of the game, 480 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: Jeff on the bench. So it's no slapshot. So and 481 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not a hockey person at all, 482 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: so I don't know if this rule may have been 483 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: in the books for fifty years for all I know. 484 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: But let's say it's a new rule. That video of 485 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: last night's games getting getting shown to every playoff team 486 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: in the league. If you're a good player and a 487 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: fight breaks out, you go hide on the bench, skate 488 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: right to lay down on the ice. You know you're 489 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: not getting in a fight because you're getting ejected. If 490 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: you do, there will be some head hunters looking for you. 491 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: Speaking of head hunters, and I know we're off the subject, 492 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: but the penalty that led to their Calgary's power play goal, 493 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: it was for hitting the guy in the head. Guy 494 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: dropped his head. He was going to getting checked and 495 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: he dropped his head down and guy hit him in 496 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 1: the head. It's like, well, that's like in the NFL, 497 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 1: right contact to the head targeting. Well, if a guy 498 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: drops his head after I'm getting ready to hit him, 499 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: this took the foul. They still call it, I know, 500 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: but it's not fair. McKinney out. By the way, do 501 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 1: you have an NHL cap referees cap two? I should 502 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: have brought in my NFL one right, uh, and then 503 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: you'll have it late night tonight. Are you as into 504 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: the Favericks as you are the Stars? Yes? I didn't 505 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: give up on them either, Okay in the first game. 506 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: Is this a must win to night for the Mavericks 507 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: playing at Phoenix? It would help although they haven't won there. 508 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: How many years? Nine nine, I was gonna nineteen, it 509 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: was twenty and eighteen, I think, okay, yeah, like eleven 510 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 1: twelve straight eleven, Yeah, I think that's what it is. 511 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: And that have you've seen the percentage if you lose 512 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: the first two games of a series, what's the percentage? 513 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: And it's no more than fifteen percent, like seven point 514 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: eight percent. Okay, So, especially when you're planning against a 515 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: sixty four win team like the best team in the 516 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: best team for the best team in the league by 517 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: nine games. They're awfully good. Yeah they are, yeah so, 518 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: and there's nobody. And they came out with a vengeance 519 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: in Game one, sort of like Calgary. They were like 520 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty nine ers coming on the field. 521 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 1: Why are they playing with such right passion? Yes? So, 522 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 1: how much this Cowboys draft was just the makeup of 523 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,959 Speaker 1: the players was based on what this organization saw from 524 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: its players and the postseason this year, I think I 525 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: think quite a bit. And see the good thing was 526 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 1: I don't think they they said okay, I need this 527 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: and I'm going to reach. I think what they did 528 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 1: it was like a process of deduction, like okay, if 529 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 1: I take this guy here, what position now is more stocked? Afterwards, 530 00:33:55,240 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: like like the uh you know, the they were hoping 531 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 1: they could get to tight end, right, and a bunch 532 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: of tight ends went off the board before they got 533 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: to Jake Ferguson. But like the wide receiver, I think 534 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 1: that they decided, Okay, the top ones are gone. Now 535 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,840 Speaker 1: there's more wide receivers I can get in the second 536 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 1: and third I don't have to reach for one. I 537 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: think what I'm getting at is the way the Niners 538 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 1: came on that field. Oh, I see what you're saying. 539 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 1: You know, you could tell that they were not only 540 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: ready to play, but they knew they were going to 541 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 1: win that game. Okay. When I watched the Suns against 542 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 1: the Mavericks the other night, okay, and Devin Booker and 543 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 1: the way he was talking trash to Jalen Brunson early 544 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 1: in that game. That was after they got out to 545 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 1: the league whatever. Right, the Sons have been to the 546 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,439 Speaker 1: NBA Finals before, they've been down this road before. They've 547 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 1: got Chris Paul, one of the great point guards in 548 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: the league, and Devin Booker obviously one of the best 549 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,839 Speaker 1: players in the league. But Booker comes out and he's 550 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 1: at this attitude about him that we're better than you. 551 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: You know, Um, he goes back to the debo jukebox, right. 552 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: You know. It's almost like there's a certain that when 553 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 1: you go back to the Cowboys of the nineties, you know, 554 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: when Michael Irvin's coming on the field and Charles Haley 555 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,279 Speaker 1: and Eric Williams and they know they're gonna win this 556 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: football game, right, And that is something that when you're 557 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 1: when you're evaluating players in the draft, You're you're looking 558 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: for players who have that look about him, and I 559 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,919 Speaker 1: think Jalen Tilbert might have that about him. The third 560 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: round round wide receiver. It's like these teams looking to go, 561 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 1: got this mosquito on my arms, Just get it off, 562 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 1: right because I know and for that matter, Tyler Smith 563 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: at a lower level. They didn't play at Alabama, but 564 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: at Tulsa, the aggression that he played with. You know, 565 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 1: there's some Eric Williams in his game. And I'll give 566 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 1: you another guy too. They took Daman Clark Lsu. You know, 567 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,399 Speaker 1: alis walks on the field and their God's gift to football, right, 568 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: And I'll guarantee you he has that same attitude. The 569 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: unfortunate thing for him is that he'll start the season 570 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: on pup and they knew that. That was like, okay, 571 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 1: I've got all these fifth round picks, four of them. 572 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,280 Speaker 1: And instead of and they didn't use one to trade 573 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 1: around to, you know, maybe move up and around somewhere 574 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: someplace for somebody, they used it on a guy that's 575 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 1: basically another one Like, Okay, he may not help as much, 576 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: if at all, this year, but it's a hell of 577 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,280 Speaker 1: a linebacker that should have been taken in the second 578 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: or third round that we're getting in the fifth. Problem 579 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: was and he played all last year at LSU, but 580 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 1: when he went to the combine, they discovered in the 581 00:36:55,920 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 1: very very detailed physical that he had a herniated disc 582 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: in his neck and that he needed surgery. And he 583 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 1: had the surgery say something about his toughness, that he's 584 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: able to play. You think he just didn't like and right, 585 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: But I don't know. But so they did the surgery 586 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,359 Speaker 1: that fuses two of your vertebrae together because they've got 587 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:30,720 Speaker 1: to remove that disc and it's quite significant, but guys 588 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 1: play after that. Darryl Johnson had the same surgery and 589 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: he ended up playing another season before he injured himself again. 590 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:47,840 Speaker 1: And he said at the time he promised the doctor 591 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,360 Speaker 1: that if they did the surgery and he played football 592 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: and anything else close to that happened, that he would retire. 593 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: And he did. And then Layton Vanderish had it two 594 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 1: years ago, same thing where they use the vertebrae together, 595 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:08,359 Speaker 1: so you know they're hoping it's a it's a four 596 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 1: closer to six month recovery. And if you do the 597 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 1: math for March that gets you through September. By time 598 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: you get ready to play football, that takes up October. 599 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 1: Maybe they get a a month out of them of 600 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,399 Speaker 1: the season, a portion of the season out of them, 601 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 1: and if not, it's for next year. But I I 602 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 1: and maybe the use of spine is all encompassing in 603 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 1: your back. But I heard someone use the term spinal fusion. 604 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: They can't fuse your spine together, right, they fuse the 605 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: vertebrae together. If they If they're fusing your the spine together, 606 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 1: you got bigger problems than we're about playing football. Well, 607 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 1: he ran a four or five seven at the combine 608 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,400 Speaker 1: and had a ten in seven broad jump with a 609 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: herniated disc and wherever his neck spine wherever it was, 610 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 1: so you know, and you watch him on film, Wow, Yeah, 611 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: that guy he can move to the football. In fact, 612 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 1: I think had he been healthy throughout the draft process, 613 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 1: he would have been right up there with Devin Lloyd 614 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: as of the first as a possible late first round pick. 615 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: Did you see the picture of him without a shirt on? Yes, 616 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: you see that. I might have put him ahead of 617 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 1: Devin Wood And in fact, he had I looked at him. 618 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: I didn't even look at him because he was hurt. Yeah, 619 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: had I looked at him, he might have been my 620 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 1: Daniel Hunter out of LSU. Because that was one of 621 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: the reasons why I had Denil Hunter as a possible 622 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 1: first round draft pick when he came out in twenty fifteen, 623 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: because I saw him with his shirt off, said he 624 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 1: was twenty years old. I said, you know that wearing 625 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: that number eighteen right there says a lot so special 626 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: number at LSU, right YEA best leader on the team 627 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 1: gets number eighteen and he wore it for two years. 628 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 1: Look how strong he is. He just threw that guy 629 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 1: down like a rag doll. If you get to watch 630 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 1: this that we are seeing right now with some of 631 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 1: his highlights at LSU. But he's got makeup too. Yeah, 632 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you know what impressed me During his interview 633 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 1: with the media here after he was selected, and they 634 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: asked him what were his thoughts about having to have 635 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 1: that surgery, and he basically said, when when I got 636 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 1: out of surgery, my first thought was on my daughter. 637 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: It's got a two year old daughter, and he said, 638 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: and I want to make sure I can be a 639 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 1: dad and be able to do the things with my 640 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 1: daughter the rest of my life. And I thought there 641 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: was a very thoughtful response. So we are. In fact, 642 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 1: I said at the time, when the Cowboys are on 643 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,839 Speaker 1: the board with four picks in that round, I was like, 644 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 1: someone asked me, well, do you take a shot on that, 645 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: on that player? I said, heck, yeah, it's no risk 646 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,399 Speaker 1: in the fifth round when especially when you got four 647 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 1: fifth round picks, right, Heck, yes, take him, yeah, absolutely, 648 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,759 Speaker 1: you know, and there's okay, they took a tight end 649 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: in the fourth Jake Ferguson and all Cason. And so 650 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 1: the interesting on Ferguson is that and we all can 651 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: see the Cowboys roster and we know that there was 652 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 1: a need for a second tight end. And then if 653 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: you when you look at the salary situation, the contract 654 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 1: of your starter Dalton Schultz, and he's the franchise player, 655 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 1: and you've got decisions to make on signing him long term, 656 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: and really it boils down to that, Okay, he's on 657 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 1: the one year, ten point nine million dollar franchise tag 658 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,240 Speaker 1: right now, but if you're going to sign him long term, 659 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 1: do you want him another option in case he wants 660 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: you know, a whole whole lot of money. Right, He's 661 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 1: going to get a whole lot of money regardless. And 662 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:05,800 Speaker 1: so here was what I was hoping the Cowboys could 663 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 1: do at the outset of the draft, was like trade 664 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 1: down a couple of spots, five spots whatever in the 665 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:16,319 Speaker 1: first round, pick up another top hundred pick, Okay, so 666 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:20,239 Speaker 1: that you've got four top one hundred picks. Obviously they 667 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,239 Speaker 1: weren't comfortable doing that, and it was prudent on their 668 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: part to stay where they were in order to get 669 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 1: the guy that they wanted. Okay, Then at that point, 670 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,799 Speaker 1: you've got to make the decision. After you make your 671 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,359 Speaker 1: three picks and you haven't satisfied that tight end need 672 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: that you have, is it worth it to move number 673 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 1: your fourth round one twenty nine and take a pair 674 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: of your fifth round picks, Because that's what it would 675 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: have taken in order to climb back into the third 676 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 1: round and say draft of Jeremy Rucker at the tight 677 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 1: end from Ohio State or Kate Dotton who went the 678 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,160 Speaker 1: first picks of the fourth round of Tampa Bay. I 679 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 1: think that had crossed their mind and and so, and 680 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,239 Speaker 1: it probably crossed their mind going into Saturday if Kay 681 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 1: Dotton was still their ten picks into the fourth round, 682 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,919 Speaker 1: where it only cost you a one fifth round pick 683 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 1: to move up, then they might have might have done that. 684 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,919 Speaker 1: As it turns out, and you look at Tampa Bay's draft, 685 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: I believe Tampa Bay had traded down and they picked up. 686 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,320 Speaker 1: They did with Jacksonville. That's how they got that first 687 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: pick in the fourth round. And so they probably had 688 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 1: it on their mind that's where they would get a 689 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,360 Speaker 1: tight end. And sure enough, because that was the sweet 690 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 1: spot for tight ends if you weren't the first tight 691 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: end went off in the second round, and I think 692 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys probably were interested in Tray McBride, but they 693 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: had a greater value on the pass rusher Sam Williams. 694 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:51,919 Speaker 1: And then they had a great value on the wide 695 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:55,359 Speaker 1: receiver Jalen Tilbert. And so now if you're if you're 696 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 1: looking at the needs that the Cowboys had offensive line, 697 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,479 Speaker 1: pass rusher, slash wide receiver, were your top three needs 698 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,879 Speaker 1: in this draft, right? And probably fourth on the list 699 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,880 Speaker 1: would be maybe tied end. And we're talking at this 700 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 1: point the second tight end, right, the second tight end, 701 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: and um, and if you tell me they lost that 702 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 1: playoff game because they didn't have a second tight end, 703 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:28,879 Speaker 1: I'd probably laugh. But it's still valuable but they need 704 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:32,320 Speaker 1: right right, But in the pecking order, and and and 705 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 1: then the way you've got and I don't know how 706 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 1: they had their their tight ends ranked, but we can 707 00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 1: assume that Rutgert and Aughton were up there, Charlie Kohler 708 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 1: was another one, Ferguson was another one. Um James Mitchell 709 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 1: might have been another one. Uh, And so dulcet to Ucla, 710 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,680 Speaker 1: I'm not sure if more of a receiver than any 711 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:55,879 Speaker 1: you know, they would they like a guy, especially as 712 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: a second tight end who can be an inline blocker 713 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,719 Speaker 1: as well. And you know, did a lot of that 714 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,040 Speaker 1: Ohio State, and they didn't throw the ball much to 715 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 1: the tight end because their wide receivers were so good. 716 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:09,120 Speaker 1: I think he's got a great future as a receiving 717 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 1: tight end himself. And so so anyway, that was the 718 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 1: choice they had to make, and they decided not to. 719 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,279 Speaker 1: And had they done that, then they probably wouldn't have 720 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,279 Speaker 1: them own Clark, right if they had traded trade fifth 721 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: round fifth to move up right exactly, they wouldn't have 722 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:28,799 Speaker 1: had the luxury to be able to take an at 723 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 1: risk player in the fifth round like that. And so 724 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 1: then it came down to tight ends and Kohler went 725 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 1: before Ferguson, and I think I don't know which one 726 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 1: they had ranked higher, but they were happy to get 727 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 1: either one of them at that point. Yeah. Absolutely. Her 728 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 1: thoughts on Big John Ridgeway, Well, there's a guy that 729 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 1: started forty games at Arkansas, and I mean they need 730 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 1: a big, old guy in the middle of their defensive line, right, 731 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 1: and you know, they lost Brent Urban and they had 732 00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:01,320 Speaker 1: not filled that need in free agency, and so Ridgeway 733 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: is right there in the hunt, you know, with the 734 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 1: big guy from last year, Bohannon, you know, and they 735 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 1: resigned him, Carlos Watkins. Yeah. So you know what I 736 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 1: like best about him. They call him Big John. He's 737 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 1: big six five three twenty one. Uh. And I like 738 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 1: what uh Will McClay said about him. He knows who 739 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 1: he is. He's he's a big guy that's going to 740 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 1: play the run technique and he's got to do the 741 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:39,800 Speaker 1: dirty work inside basically to help stop the run. And 742 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 1: so if he's a first and second down defensive tackles, 743 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,320 Speaker 1: so be it. Right. That's where you take that player 744 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,640 Speaker 1: in the fifth round, right or Bohannon last year it 745 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,399 Speaker 1: was in the sixth round. Sixth round yes. So that's 746 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:54,480 Speaker 1: where you you take a guy who's not a three 747 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 1: down player for you, and and and he's fine with it, right, 748 00:46:57,760 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 1: He's not gonna pout like, oh, I don't get the 749 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:03,880 Speaker 1: rushed the quarterback. He knows he's in there to stop 750 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:08,600 Speaker 1: the run and take up space and take up blockers. 751 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 1: And so I thought that was a pretty good value 752 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: there at the at that pick, which was one seventy 753 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:20,320 Speaker 1: eight overall. All right, we need to take a break 754 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 1: and there's a few more players we need to run 755 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 1: down when we come back here.

All right, I've got a correction to make 793 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,840 Speaker 1: on John Ridgeway. It wasn't all at Arkansas his forty 794 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 1: career starts. He was at Illinois State for four years, 795 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 1: red shirted in twenty seventeen. So I'm reading it now 796 00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,440 Speaker 1: out of my big green notebooks. See how accurate Bill is? 797 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 1: Because when I heard that, I go, I don't think 798 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:04,799 Speaker 1: that's right, And then I said, no, Bill knows what 799 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 1: he's talking about. Twelve games, eleven starts at Arkansas last year. 800 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:13,319 Speaker 1: He actually last calendar year played sixteen games because he 801 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:16,280 Speaker 1: was at Illinois State and they played a spring schedule 802 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,799 Speaker 1: twenty one, so he's already played an NFL season, Mickey. 803 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,879 Speaker 1: So there you go. There he's ready. That's why they 804 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,680 Speaker 1: call him Big John. Yeah. Remember that. Now, there you go. 805 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:28,879 Speaker 1: And by the way, we're going to get a chance 806 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,760 Speaker 1: to see these guys next week because the Rookie Mini Camp. 807 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 1: The guys start coming in on Thursday up next week 808 00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:40,240 Speaker 1: and then Friday, Saturday, Sunday is the rookie Mini camp. 809 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,880 Speaker 1: All right, we have not talked about Matt Wood. Let's 810 00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:47,400 Speaker 1: go tackle from North Dakota fifth round pick. I like 811 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,280 Speaker 1: drafting an offense. I can't tell you that I've watched 812 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,919 Speaker 1: him play, but I like taking an offensive lineman there 813 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,319 Speaker 1: because I mean, really, you look at the at the 814 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:01,319 Speaker 1: depth now on the offensive line, and let's just say 815 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:03,960 Speaker 1: Tyler Smith even though he'll work summit left tackle, summit 816 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 1: left guard when Tyrant is not getting the full reps 817 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,320 Speaker 1: in practice because he doesn't need to because he's a veteran. 818 00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 1: All right, So you've got a guy in him who 819 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:17,720 Speaker 1: can play inside or outside. And then obviously at right tackle, 820 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 1: you've got Terrence Steele, and you've got Josh Ball fourth 821 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 1: round pick last year, and now you throw in a 822 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:26,759 Speaker 1: fifth rounder this year and Matt will let's go as 823 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:31,840 Speaker 1: another tackle, and so there's good competition there inside. You 824 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 1: know the other thing, Yes, and I think Jerry might 825 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:40,440 Speaker 1: have mentioned it. He said that this guy is capable 826 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 1: of playing right or left and that this just might 827 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 1: supersed having to sign a veteran swing tech. Definitely. I 828 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:53,239 Speaker 1: think that's they think this guy can step up, whether 829 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,399 Speaker 1: it's well, let the combination of what let's go in ball. 830 00:51:56,520 --> 00:52:00,239 Speaker 1: They do not have to sign a type yak your 831 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:06,400 Speaker 1: camera irving type player this year. Now you look inside though, 832 00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:11,600 Speaker 1: and that's still the backup center. They seem to like 833 00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 1: Matt Farneyoch, the seventh rounder out of Nebraska from last 834 00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,720 Speaker 1: year and his progress in the offseason programm and so forth. 835 00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:21,919 Speaker 1: You've got obviously Beadish is your returning starter at center, 836 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 1: and you get Zach Martin at right guard, and you 837 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 1: hope that the twenty one year old first round draft 838 00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 1: pick is going to be your starter at left guard 839 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 1: if he's not read you got Connor McGovern who has 840 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:37,279 Speaker 1: started games. And so is there a need for a 841 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:43,440 Speaker 1: veteran guy with center experience, because because what you're looking at, 842 00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:48,239 Speaker 1: I could see beds. If Beotish got hurt, yeah, then 843 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 1: who's and I'm looking at game day. Okay, with what 844 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:56,879 Speaker 1: the way things are currently constituted on your depth chart. Now, 845 00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 1: you did have some some rookie free agents that they 846 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,200 Speaker 1: seem to like that they signed a couple of them 847 00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:07,240 Speaker 1: Boston College and James MPs as well from BYU. Okay, 848 00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:09,239 Speaker 1: so those are a couple of guys who could be 849 00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: in the mix. But again they're college free agents. So 850 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 1: do you need a veteran interior offensive lineman at a 851 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:22,319 Speaker 1: veteran minimum salary to come in? Who has who has 852 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:27,600 Speaker 1: started games at center and they need they need the 853 00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 1: next veteran Joe Looney, somebody a capable of guards center? 854 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 1: Or can Connor McGovern learn how to play center this offseason? 855 00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:41,479 Speaker 1: Is is that a project for OTAs? I was hoping 856 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,799 Speaker 1: to learn how to play guard? Well, now you've got 857 00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:48,279 Speaker 1: your guard, but you need back though. Yeah, I mean 858 00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 1: just kind of like the same deal. That's the reason 859 00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:54,680 Speaker 1: that Connor Williams was snapping in preseason games last year. 860 00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:57,280 Speaker 1: I tried to explain that to somebody and they just wouldn't. 861 00:53:57,280 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 1: It wasn't because they wanted to make him the starting 862 00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 1: center exactly. It was because they had to have someone 863 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:06,800 Speaker 1: who could snap, and especially on your game day roster. Okay, 864 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 1: so let's say because you knew Williams was going to 865 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 1: be active. Because let's say you've got it right now, 866 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:18,240 Speaker 1: your depth chart, I mean, backup guys on your offensive 867 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:22,279 Speaker 1: line who have snapped, who have who've played center. I 868 00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 1: mean Connor McGovern was at a game or two in college, 869 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:28,160 Speaker 1: maybe at Penn State, I don't remember, like maybe his 870 00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 1: Matt farniok's the only year. Yeah, no, no, right, And 871 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,400 Speaker 1: so you would have to make farneyok, has got to 872 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 1: be on your active roster on game day the way 873 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:41,760 Speaker 1: things are currently put together. And he was a former 874 00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,160 Speaker 1: guard that they moved to center, so maybe he can 875 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 1: do both. But you're right, that's exactly that's exactly the 876 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:53,960 Speaker 1: situation they're in right there. And and then the other 877 00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 1: guy we didn't talk about, Bland corner. I like his tape, Yeah, 878 00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 1: and you need you need depth there and special teams, right, 879 00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 1: that's how he would make this. And and by the way, 880 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:10,799 Speaker 1: much like Ridgeway who was at Illinois State and then 881 00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 1: played his last year in Arkansas, Deron Bland was at 882 00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:16,879 Speaker 1: Sacramento State and played this last year at Fresno State, 883 00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:20,120 Speaker 1: which may have been a reason why he was not 884 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 1: on the so called experts mock drafts and was a 885 00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 1: late bloomer as far as the draft process goes, right. 886 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 1: And then the linebacker they took in the sixth round, 887 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:38,040 Speaker 1: Devin Harper, they just needed linebackers. They needed linebackers, a 888 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,479 Speaker 1: guy that can play special teams and again and try 889 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:47,919 Speaker 1: to make the team that way, because you know, if 890 00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 1: assuming Demon Clark doesn't help the depth this year, they 891 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 1: needed some extra help before we finish here. One of 892 00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 1: the undrafted free agents that I thought we should spend 893 00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:08,080 Speaker 1: at least a minute on, Okay Jonathan Garabay. Oh the kicker. 894 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:10,839 Speaker 1: They got him a kicker they didn't have to use 895 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:14,440 Speaker 1: a draft choice out of Texas Tech. He is accustomed 896 00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:20,880 Speaker 1: to kicking in windy conditions. And now that gives them two. 897 00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 1: But that doesn't mean they don't find somebody else. And 898 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:26,759 Speaker 1: I think we talked about this during the draft, that 899 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:32,680 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a veteran kickers probably released somewhere awarding 900 00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 1: the line. And the next day two of them right Cleveland, Cleveland, Cleveland. 901 00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 1: They drafted Cade York, the prosper kicker. They drabbed him 902 00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:45,879 Speaker 1: in the fourth round, and so they released Chase McLaughlin 903 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:51,240 Speaker 1: and the unfortunate name for a kicker, Chris blew It. 904 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 1: Yes on Monday. I don't even just a connotation there 905 00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:59,799 Speaker 1: because if he misses one, I don't want to see 906 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:06,240 Speaker 1: that headline. Yea, Chris blew It. But somebody also come around. 907 00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:10,560 Speaker 1: But this guy he made fifteen of sixteen for Texas 908 00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 1: Tech this last year. Is only miss was from fifty 909 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:22,880 Speaker 1: three and he did hit the game winner sixty two 910 00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 1: yards against Iowa State and that qualified Texas Tech for 911 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:34,760 Speaker 1: a bowl game, so there was amount of pressure on that. 912 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:38,720 Speaker 1: And he also hit two field goals. He only kicked 913 00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:43,320 Speaker 1: three games for Tech in twenty twenty and in against 914 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:47,120 Speaker 1: Baylor when they won twenty four twenty three, he hit 915 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 1: four field goals. The third one was with four minutes 916 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:53,439 Speaker 1: to go in the game from forty six and then 917 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:58,200 Speaker 1: the game winner. Another walkoff was from twenty five yards 918 00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:02,840 Speaker 1: to beat Baylor that year and the final score was 919 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:06,680 Speaker 1: twenty four twenty three, and he made four field goals. Well, 920 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:09,040 Speaker 1: so don't ask me how they got to what happened 921 00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,400 Speaker 1: on those two may He missed an extra point. He 922 00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:13,640 Speaker 1: might have missed two extra points. I think he missed 923 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 1: I think they might have gone for two one time. 924 00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:19,080 Speaker 1: I think he missed one because he was one for 925 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:23,240 Speaker 1: two on okay, on extra points in his career. Yeah, 926 00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:26,000 Speaker 1: and those are we've seen. We've seen enough missed extra 927 00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:28,760 Speaker 1: points around here. That's why that guy's with the Jets 928 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:34,320 Speaker 1: right now. So anyway, you know, he's got a strong leg. 929 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:36,960 Speaker 1: And again the reason a lot of people didn't know 930 00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:44,800 Speaker 1: about him. He two years of juco at Riverside City College, Okay, 931 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:49,440 Speaker 1: and then he came to Tech and greatest kicker in 932 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:54,520 Speaker 1: the history of the NFL. Who is it Texas Tech? No, no, 933 00:58:56,600 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 1: it's Justin Tucker. Yes, yes, yes, yes, college freezy got 934 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:06,439 Speaker 1: the best college free agent, right, Dan Bailey college free agent? Right, 935 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:10,080 Speaker 1: that's why you're not drafting a kicker, Mickey, Right. The 936 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 1: Cowboys have drafted nine of them during their their days. 937 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:16,240 Speaker 1: By the way, who's the best one but they drafted? 938 00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 1: Think about it and have it for us next week 939 00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:22,360 Speaker 1: here on match. I have him in my mind. I 940 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 1: think the only two that made it were David Bieler 941 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:30,160 Speaker 1: and hopefully best Nick Folk, and they weren't the best 942 00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:32,360 Speaker 1: well Nick Fole. I mean, if you're going to compare 943 00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:35,280 Speaker 1: Nick Folk versus David Bheler, I'll take Nick folks actually 944 00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:39,200 Speaker 1: and still kick in this league. Nineteen eighty six, they 945 00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:45,280 Speaker 1: used a fourth round pick on a kicker, Max because 946 00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:49,040 Speaker 1: they were worried that Raphael Sept the Ends back was 947 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:52,400 Speaker 1: going out, and so they said, well, we better get 948 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:55,600 Speaker 1: a kicker, and then Sept the End beat him out 949 00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:59,760 Speaker 1: and Zendaias ended up kicking three years in the league 950 01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,880 Speaker 1: Green Bay combined three years Green Bay in Washington, and 951 01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 1: that was it. All right, Well, eventually Everson is gonna 952 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 1: show up, but we're gonna be off the air stretched 953 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:15,800 Speaker 1: out to sixty five minutes, all right, So he goes 954 01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 1: undrafted again. Yes, all right, So that does it for 955 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:21,439 Speaker 1: this edition of mix Shots. And we will be back 956 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 1: at our regular time next Thursday at eleven thirty, and 957 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:29,680 Speaker 1: we will see you then go rookie Minicamp. There you go. 958 01:00:30,360 --> 01:00:33,240 Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 959 01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:35,320 Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
