15
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: It's been probably a year, right, Yeah, it's been it's

16
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: been I think it's been a year even the year

17
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: since Uh I've had a chance to come home with

18
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: you guys. But what's been going on? That's what I say,

19
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: old thing. I mean, you know, at this time of

20
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 1: year is this lying season. Everyone's lying about who they

21
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 1: like they don't like. Uh, we're kind of filling in

22
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: things and we're having soap operas with mock drafts and

23
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: stuff like that, so we can't create a conversation. So

24
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: you know what it is? So lying season? Has anybody

25
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: lied to you yet? There's no way? Right, Oh, everybody's

26
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: lying there, Like once you get anyway, he's lying about

27
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: who they really liked to throwing out names out there

28
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: so you can run with them and put them out

29
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: there and all kinds of stuff. And so if it's

30
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 1: not the teams, then it's the agents. There's not the agents,

31
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: it's the players themselves, and so you know what it

32
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: is like, that's that's that's the part of the year. Yes, yeah,

33
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: welcome the lying season to me. Yeah, you gotta take

34
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: everything with the grain is salt. You gotta take everything

35
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: with you gotta be confident in your own mindset. You

36
00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: gotta be confident with all of that. And you have

37
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: been as we've seen on the draft shows already. We've

38
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: already seen that a couple different times. But we're excited

39
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: to be here. This is my fourth combine, this is

40
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: your Oh you know, going all the way back, your

41
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 1: first was the playing career, right, so so since two

42
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,119
Speaker 1: thousand would now so it's like twenty two, twenty three

43
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: plus one. Yeah, so like twenty three twenty four. They

44
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 1: were working on a long time, and this is my

45
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: first one. This is my Yeah, we're getting started. Yeah,

46
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,679
Speaker 1: you see the workhouse tomorrow, ye kind of get it going.

47
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,119
Speaker 1: That'll be your first taste of what it is. And look,

48
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: it's it's a great event. Is For the longest time,

49
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: it was always like the football Convention. It's the only

50
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: time that everyone has a chance to see everybody, until

51
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: coaches decided that they didn't want to bring their coaching staffs.

52
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: But it was a great opportunity to not only talk

53
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: about like these players or whatever, but it was a

54
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: chance to talk about trends in the league, how you

55
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 1: build your team, what do you like, schematics, all this

56
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: other stuff. We're robbed of some of that because people

57
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: are staying at home. But it's still a really, really

58
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 1: great affair because you get a chance to see so

59
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:08,679
Speaker 1: many guys that you don't see doing. Of course in

60
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: the regular season. Somebody yesterday really point put it out

61
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: in the open for me that that kind of put

62
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: it into perspective. But this is the only time that

63
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 1: the NFL comes together, like you said, in one spot,

64
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: and nobody's trying to win, nobody, nobody's trying to beat

65
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: the other at something at either even the Pro Bowl.

66
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: Maybe the Pro Bowl is probably the closest thing to this.

67
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: But but you don't get you don't get all the teams.

68
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: You don't get you don't get the executives, scouts and

69
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: the coaches together in one city. And I do like

70
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: That's why I'm a little disappointed that so many teams

71
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: decided to leave their coaches behind, because it was that

72
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: one time that you can see everybody and connect and

73
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: all those other things, and you don't get a chance

74
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: to do it because once we leave from here, you

75
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: don't see those guys anymore. Maybe you see a handful

76
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: of guys at a Pro day, you see him doing

77
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: a game, you know, but you won't see everybody. And

78
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: so hopefully, man, we get everybody, shoot everybody back, get

79
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: everybody back. Cowboys did bring their coaching staff, they did

80
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: bring their executive department. So the front office is here,

81
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 1: the scouts are here, the coaches are here. We will

82
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: talk to coach McCarthy today, So we won't have that

83
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: information on this episode, but we'll talk about it on

84
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: the second episode that we have coming out in from

85
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: Radio row from Indianapolis. Now, it is your first combine,

86
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 1: it is, so what what's your thoughts so far? How?

87
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: How what have you taken out of the first couple

88
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 1: days of being here, first couple of days of being here.

89
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 1: I think I describe it yesterday as like a high

90
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: school reunions. Everybody, everybody coming and you meeting everyone. It's

91
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 1: it's it's interesting to see everyone in their own niche

92
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 1: Like our photographers have their own group of people they

93
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: meet up with and they're they're talking mess about, you know,

94
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: what they're doing. And then I meet some of your

95
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 1: reporter friends. And then it's just an interesting dynamics that

96
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: I've gained so much respect for everyone and every piece

97
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 1: that goes into what we do by being here. I

98
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: think I've already done that, but just kind of hearing

99
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: the intricacies of like I have to be here at

100
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: this time, I got to set up at this time.

101
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: A yeah, and we're just you know, to me, I'm like,

102
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: I'm just taking notes, getting ready. Sure, but they don't

103
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: want to do what you do in vice versa, And

104
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: I think that's so awesome, like that everyone has their

105
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: individuals thing here and we can kind of see it

106
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: come together here me personally going to see it. Yeah,

107
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: I think the best part of this is what happens

108
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 1: late at night, like when you really have the casual conversations. Yeah,

109
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: like that's that's the part of it. Like people will

110
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: talk about it being your little spring breakers because everyone's

111
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: at the bar or whatever, but really in the cut

112
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: sometimes you have some great conversations about team building, who

113
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: you like, evaluations, what do you look for? What have

114
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: you learned from this mistake or that mistake when it

115
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,039
Speaker 1: came to scouting and evaluating. So to me, I feel

116
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: like I come away from the combine not necessarily learning

117
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 1: about this class, but continue to learn about how to evaluate,

118
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 1: how to put together a team, what it looks like,

119
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: what it's going to look like in the future, as

120
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 1: you continue to be the best version of yourself when

121
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: it comes to doing what we do on this side.

122
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: Now you've done a little bit of everything because you played,

123
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 1: You've been on the coaching side of things, the scouting

124
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: side of things. You've also been on the media side

125
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: of things, doing a ton of great work with the

126
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: NFL Network. What is your favorite to do? I mean,

127
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: other than playing? I mean that's probably the easy answer.

128
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: You know, like it. It's funny because there's so many

129
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: different things to football that you enjoy. There's the Exino

130
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: nerd in me that loves like watching tactics and schemes

131
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 1: and the latest trends and who's doing what. And man,

132
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: look at how the Eagles were able to help Jalen

133
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: Hurts go from being a second round pick to now

134
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: he may be a top five quarterback based on how

135
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: they utilized him, how you continue to improve, but how

136
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 1: they tweaked the game and you know those things. And

137
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 1: then you look at a guy like Pat Mahomes and

138
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: how can you remove an All Pro player from Pat Mahomes?

139
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: And yet this team goes and wins the Super Bowl?

140
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: What did I miss on him watching him at Texas Tech?

141
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: That I didn't know he had that singular power to

142
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 1: do those things. The evaluation part is always cool, like

143
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: looking studying projecting, seeing what those projections turn into two, three,

144
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: four years down the line. All that stuff is far

145
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: I just think like just being associated with the game

146
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: itself is the fun part in any capacity, And when

147
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 1: you're like multidimensional, like we all are, like different things

148
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: fascinate you at different times in the year. And so

149
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: right now I'm just fascinated about, Hey, how do you

150
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: put together the team, the best team that you can

151
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: put for it to get ready to see if you

152
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: can compete for a team of a championship in twenty

153
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: twenty three, go for it. Oh, I was gonna say,

154
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: I'm actually fascinated listening to the players, like getting to

155
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: put what I think about them or what I've studied

156
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: about them. Just actually hearing how they speak, how they project,

157
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 1: who's had influence on them and stuff like that. That

158
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: to me is so valuable really starting to understand these

159
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 1: guys a little bit more because the character is important, right,

160
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: character part about the players is important. So we're starting

161
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: to i don't know, just hearing them and even getting

162
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: the opportunity to interview them, ask them questions and be here.

163
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: It means something to meet Also some of these players

164
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: that I'm interested in them. Well, I mean, I think

165
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: that part is is huge because it's one thing to

166
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: blindly lick a tape without knowing the person. Yeah, you know,

167
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: and so you're looking at the tape and you see

168
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: one thing, but then when you hear them talk or

169
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: you find out more about their background, their character, some

170
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: issues that it may or may not have had, then

171
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: you get a better feel for Okay, well, how do

172
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 1: we now put the pieces of the puzzle together, and

173
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: what's different for us? What's different for me? Like it

174
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: NFL Network, Like you're trying to think about all thirty

175
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: two teams. You guys are tied directly with the team

176
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. No, no, Now you have a better

177
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: understanding of the culture in the locker room. Yes, you

178
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: have an understanding of Okay, well, how would this guy

179
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: fit in that locker room? Which is harder when you're

180
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: having the broad perspective of what what's Dallas really like

181
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: compared to what's Philly like? Was Washington and all those

182
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: other teams, and so it's just a very different deal.

183
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: And also the way you great players is differently working

184
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: for a team as opposed to doing the broad scope,

185
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: because when you work for a team, you have certain

186
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: parameters and standards that you're looking for based on what

187
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: the team wants and a player. When you're working at

188
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: a higher level or at a national level. Now you

189
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: just kind of grating the player for what he is,

190
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: and sometimes that differs from he if he goes to

191
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 1: this team, he'll play this way. If he goes to

192
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: that team, he'll play a different one. And he's gonna

193
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: fit in this scheme? Is he not gonna fit in

194
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: this scheme? How's he going to perform? We were literally

195
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 1: just talking about that just three four four three defense

196
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 1: and how some guys may not look like they can

197
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 1: play there. I mean, dan Quinn showed this. He showed

198
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: like there's so many guys on the Cowboys defense in

199
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: particular that before being in this scheme, we didn't know

200
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: what they were and we didn't know how they were

201
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:49,719
Speaker 1: going to project to what their ceiling was. But that

202
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: just talks to they speaks to how schemes, specific things

203
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: can make a difference in this league. Yeah. Look, the

204
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: one thing that we can never project is how coaching

205
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: and schematics, like a great coach, a creative mind, a

206
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: brilliant teacher can bring out stuff in players that we

207
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: just don't know. You just can't you can't predict the

208
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: kind of scheme that they play in and how they

209
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 1: utilize the role that they play. Those things matter, and

210
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: so the hard part is trying to see what a

211
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: player did in college and trying to stretch it out

212
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: and project what it will look like at the next

213
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: level without knowing how the team has taken them and

214
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: visions him play. Yeah, and the whole overarching thought of

215
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: the player, like you talked about with these interviews, it

216
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: all kind of becomes clear this week because not only

217
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: are we getting the chance to talk to the players,

218
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: and we're having these media sessions and they're hitting the

219
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 1: podium and we're learning about some of the things that

220
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 1: they've talked about, some of the things that they feel

221
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: like are important to them. These teams are doing the

222
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: same exact thing. They're putting them on the whiteboard. We

223
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: heard d Over shown earlier talking about the Texas linebacker

224
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: talking about how teams have put him on the board

225
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: and allowed him to take a dry race marker and

226
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: show exactly what he's seen on film and how he

227
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 1: can pick certain things up. These teams are not only

228
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: having those interviews behind closed doors, but they're also having

229
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: the medical checks. That's a huge part of this whole

230
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: process is having that one two punch of the interviews

231
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: and the medical checks to kind of go back and forth.

232
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 1: Have you seen enough from this class to to really

233
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: feel like it compares to something that there's some other

234
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: class that you've seen in the past based off of

235
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: all of those overarching elements. You know, it's it's hard

236
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 1: to compare classes, but what you can assesses the draft

237
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 1: is I would say not as top heavy as it

238
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: bitted the pass, but you got a lot of mid

239
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: level talent meeting. It is really deep in terms of

240
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: second or third route players. You get starters in those routes,

241
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: first routers. I mean, what we all are going to

242
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: have to cut a tiper xpects in this class. I

243
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 1: think they're probably like fifteen to eighteen true first round talents, Okay,

244
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: and so when you have eighteen first round talents, that

245
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: means someone's going to take a play in the first

246
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: round who's not necessarily your traditional blue chip player, but

247
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: when you take them in the first round, fans have

248
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: expectations that they're gonna play a certain way. The team

249
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 1: will even find themselves having certain expectations that they're going

250
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: to play at a higher level because they were taken

251
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: in the first round, when that might not be what's

252
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: really in them, and so we have to kind of

253
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 1: understand that, and maybe we don't get upset when our

254
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,959
Speaker 1: favorite team takes a cornerback and you're like, well, why

255
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: do we take a cornerback when we need an offensive

256
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: tackle or we need a pass rusher in those things,

257
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: and so we just kind of have to understand the

258
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: strength lies and tied d classes solid and cornerback classes solid.

259
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 1: There's a really group of running backs in the mid

260
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: levels that can always play, and you know, and then

261
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: you got some some wildcards like the quarterback class. Who

262
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 1: knows what this quarterback class is? And good thing cowboys

263
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: are not thankful quarterback because who knows what this class is?

264
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: That here you ask, I know, but I agree with

265
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: you by that way. But but it's it's it's it's

266
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: a it's a weird it's a weird deal when it

267
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: comes to that, like not as many offensive tackles that

268
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: you would like because it's not as deep in that class,

269
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: and so it's going to change how you evaluate it. Um.

270
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: What teams to do is the draft the parts that

271
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: are like plentiful. What you do is your circle back

272
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: to that you're going get something from a shallow pool

273
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: early and come back late and maybe take a chance

274
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: on a position that has a deeper pool. You mentioned quarterback. Um,

275
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,559
Speaker 1: do you do either one of you feel like there

276
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 1: is a thing. I feel like there's a need for quarterback.

277
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you look at the NFC specifically, like there's

278
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: so many teams that really need to be building towards

279
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: having a quarterback. And we talked about this class when

280
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: you talk about how many first round draft picks that

281
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: you really feel like there are, could you do think

282
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 1: we could see people necessarily reach, but definitely they don't reach.

283
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: They reached people reach for I mean, I really feel

284
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: like in this first round, So to your point, how

285
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 1: we might see some guys like we don't think that

286
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: our first round draft picks. I feel like some of

287
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: the gentlemen that maybe we think our second round draft

288
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 1: picks may be picked up earlier in the in the

289
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: in the rounds because there's not that many of them

290
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: in certain places like you were talking about, No, it's

291
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 1: funny and there's a level of desperation. So the one

292
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: thing that we know when it comes to the quarterbacks,

293
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: the golden era quarterback play Nail Hisskey Younger and it's

294
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: really heavy in the AFC. Yes, to win a Super

295
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: Bowl in the AFC, you better have a dude at quarterback.

296
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 1: Because to win in the AFC you have to deal

297
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, Justin Herbert Lamar

298
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: Jackson will put an asterick buy because we don't know

299
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: if you'll continue to be in Baltimore. Sure you have

300
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence who is coming He's coming around, you know.

301
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: And so like we're already talking about six or seven

302
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: quarter right there the NFC. Aaron Rodgers is coming down,

303
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: but it's really wide open. Like now you have to

304
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: talk about Jalen Hurst, which is crazy, but a year

305
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: ago no one believed this. But Jalen Hurst now has

306
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: to be in consideration as a top five quarter So

307
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: now you talk about what ain't Jalen Hurst is now

308
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 1: the standard bearer in the NFC, and Aaron Rodgers is

309
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: coming back to the pack. You have Kirk Cousins and

310
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: Jerry Golf and those guys, but how good are those

311
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: And so you now have a situation where everyone in

312
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: the NFC has to look at their quarterback and say,

313
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: is he good enough to not only give me to

314
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. But if we have to square off

315
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: against one of those teams in the AFC that has

316
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: one of those guys, Kenny win a one game scenario,

317
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: all right, Bucky? Based off of that, do you think

318
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: Dak falls into that category? I think so. I think

319
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: I think the one thing that we can't do, and

320
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: it's unfortunate for players when a player has an injury,

321
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: we never give them or cut them slack. Okay, whatever

322
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: happened with Dak Stumb, it certainly had to have an

323
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: impact on the way that he threw the ball because

324
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: he normally doesn't throw turnover. He doesn't have turnovers like that,

325
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: and sometimes it can snowball and those things. The other

326
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: thing that I think maybe you'll have to assess when

327
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: you're Mike McCarthy and you're thinking about this offense as

328
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: he takes over, do I have enough weaperry on the outside,

329
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: and so you remove Amari Cooper for whatever reason. So

330
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: now you go from having what I thought was one

331
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: A and one B and Cede Lamb and Amari Cooper

332
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: to then you have Cde Lamb and in a significant

333
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: drop off before you have the next wide receiver and

334
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: what you're seeing in this league, it's moving away from

335
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: like the running back being the feature player, but more

336
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: you better have two wide receivers that can get it done.

337
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: Because in the games, when you get down the stretch,

338
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: someone has to come over and someone has to have

339
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: the ability to have one of those big games. And

340
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: right now the Cowboys need more around Dack than just that.

341
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: And I know that Dad got forty million dollars, but

342
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 1: he's still needs pass catches to be able to kind

343
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: of do what he does. And to add on to that,

344
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: it's it's also too do you have do you have playmakers?

345
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 1: But if you don't have the playmakers, are you doing

346
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: enough with the guys that you have? Are you getting

347
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: the most out of them? Are you utilizing them in

348
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: ways that are conducive to how well they play or

349
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: or what even is working well? In the league right

350
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: now we see a lot of yak guys with yak

351
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 1: ability really making a difference at the wide receiver position.

352
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 1: So also too, I just wanted to add on to, like,

353
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,959
Speaker 1: are you getting the most out of even what you

354
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: have presently there? You know, I mean, I think I

355
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: think that's a big thing, and I think that's probably

356
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,120
Speaker 1: one of the reasons why Mike McCarthy is now kind

357
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: of taking the rains over as the play caller. Now,

358
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 1: I would say, based on his experience in Green Bay,

359
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 1: some of the yak ability that you talk about, it

360
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 1: may change the profile of the wide receiver that you

361
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 1: look for in Green Bay when he was there the

362
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: way that it has always been passed down from Ron

363
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 1: Wolf down. You wide receivers need to have punt return ability,

364
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 1: and the reason why they wanted guys who have punt

365
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: return experiences because those guys have natural running skills, they're tough,

366
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: they are able to break tackles in space. You can

367
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 1: get them the ball on catching round concepts, and they

368
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 1: can turn short games into big plays. Ceedee Lamb has

369
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: punt return a building. Do the rest of the guys

370
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 1: in the wide receiver corps have punt return to building?

371
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: And if they don't, you need to add some guys

372
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 1: who have that. So now Dak's efficiency can go up

373
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 1: because rather than asking him to throw the ball farther down,

374
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: the field is shorter, but you're getting more bang for you.

375
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: But because those guys can break tackles and make things happen. Yeah,

376
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,879
Speaker 1: so you're what you're saying, is Bucky that might have

377
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 1: a chance in this The only the only thing about

378
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 1: that he's so good as an internity sometimes because some

379
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 1: offensive coaches will use the return game as another offensive play,

380
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: and when you're an All Pro player like he is, Yeah,

381
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,880
Speaker 1: he's a difference, Baker. That's it. They certainly can put

382
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: a package in where he comes in the game and

383
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: he gets the ball on screens in those things. He

384
00:18:58,200 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: has to be a part of it, though. He's too

385
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: dangerous with the ball in his hands to let him

386
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: just stand on the sideline the entire game. Yeah, I

387
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: completely agree, and he's even talked about that as well.

388
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: I mean, he said, I want to play on offense.

389
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,919
Speaker 1: He said that a couple weeks ago in an interview

390
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: that he loves the return specialist gig, but for the

391
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: most part, he wants to make an impact on offense.

392
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: And he could probably find a way to make an

393
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 1: impact on offense, especially if they can use some of

394
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: the stuff Bucky's talking about here. But let's take our

395
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: first break. When we come back, we're gonna have some

Speaker 1: We're also gonna get Bucky's thoughts on the Cowboys draft

00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 1: spent some time talking about the generics around the combine

463
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 1: and what we can kind of expect throughout the week.

464
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: I want to talk about this class a little bit.

465
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,199
Speaker 1: We're gonna do so with a little bit of Twitter.

466
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 1: On the twenty are fans, of course sending questions through Twitter,

467
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 1: and we'll start with this one. Who are we not

468
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: talking about that we should be talking about? I was

469
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: getting frustrated from wearing my glasses all day. I went

470
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: to laser part of this show. In the past, we

471
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 1: go through names like crazy, but is there anything that

472
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 1: I think we should be talking about, and it can

473
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: be Cowboys related or could just be overall in the draft.

474
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: I would say a couple of names Twitter from Tennessee.

475
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 1: Tennessee quarterbacks. I don't think people are talking about them enough.

476
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 1: I think there's a fascination over Will Levis and Anthony

477
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: Richardson that Entucky Will Levis Florida Anthony y quarterback from Florida, respectively,

478
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: where we're talking about their tools and all that other stuff.

479
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,679
Speaker 1: But the game is about how you play it, and

480
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're many that play the game

481
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 1: better than him to hook her at quarterback. People who

482
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: talk about the age he's twenty six years old, but

483
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: at quarterback that doesn't necessarily matter because quarterbacks can't play

484
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: until their forty. We've seen it, and what you're trying

485
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 1: to do is you're trying to get someone on the

486
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,479
Speaker 1: field who has experienced. He's an experienced player, so he's one.

487
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: Andre Carter, the edge rusher, edge defender from Army, is

488
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 1: another one that I believe deserves a little more love,

489
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 1: just in terms of six ten wingspan. Two seasons ago,

490
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 1: he had fifteen and a half sacks at West point,

491
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: and if you've seen Army play, they're not loaded with

492
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 1: blue chip guys. So the fact that they have him

493
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 1: a super freak athlete who's also a very productive player.

494
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 1: He's someone who also deserves a lot of attention. That's interesting.

495
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:47,400
Speaker 1: You bring up the quarterbacks because I mean, we made

496
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 1: the joke earlier that quarterback is not a conversation depending

497
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 1: on who you talk to, it's not a conversation in

498
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 1: the first round, but it's definitely a conversation. Cooper Rushers

499
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: an unrestricted free agent. Yes, he's been your back up

500
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 1: for quite some time. Now you turn around and you

501
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,199
Speaker 1: can talk about the back half of this contract with

502
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,199
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. Now, he's got two years left on this

503
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: deal heading into this year, and that's if they don't

504
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 1: extend him, if they don't restructure him. So quarterback is

505
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: on the table. In terms of mid round draft picks,

506
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 1: that's where you're going to find a hindon hooker. Anthony

507
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 1: Richardson's not going to be there in the mid rounds.

508
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: Will Levis is not going to be there in the

509
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 1: mid rounds. A hindon hooker a Jake Hayner from Fresno State.

510
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: There are a couple guys there that are going to

511
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: be there in the middle rounds, and that's where the

512
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: Cowboys could potentially target it, and the Cowboys should target

513
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 1: because you can never go wrong. And being in the

514
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,199
Speaker 1: quarterback business, sure, we've seen a lot of people laughed

515
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 1: and sticker when the Philadelphia Eagles said that they wanted

516
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 1: to have a quarterback factory. When Carson wentzaid, just so

517
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 1: that made your contract and they drafted Jaalen Hursts in

518
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: the second round, and lord behold, Jalen Hurst is the

519
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 1: one that leads him back to a super Bowl. And

520
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 1: so you can never go wrong. If it's the most

521
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 1: important position in football, you want to make sure you

522
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 1: invest in that position. And so allocating resources is every

523
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,439
Speaker 1: other year to make sure that you have a slew

524
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 1: of young quarterbacks that are development, that are developing, and

525
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: something that makes sense. And also for McCarthy, that is

526
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: something that he knows. He's talked about the quarterback school

527
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: and all the things that they used to do yesteryear.

528
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 1: I could see him wanting to get back to that

529
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 1: to make sure that you always have someone in the opera.

530
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,640
Speaker 1: I also don't think I want to say there's nothing

531
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 1: wrong with quarterbacks coming in and developing and sitting behind.

532
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: I think we've gotten so used to these guys coming

533
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: out and being immediate playmakers, immediately making a difference that

534
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: it puts some pressure on these young guys to come

535
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 1: in and be the playmakers right away. No, there's absolutely

536
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with these gentlemen coming in playing behind someone

537
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: and really starting to develop the game and learn it,

538
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 1: you know, as they're in the NFL. Well, I mean

539
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: that's that's the thing. And what has happened is we've

540
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:57,360
Speaker 1: become increasingly less patient microwave with young players, and particularly quarterbacks.

541
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: We want young quarterbacks to come off to college field

542
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: and immediately have an act on the game. And it's

543
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: really really hard. The one thing that it won't change

544
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 1: the narrative, but everyone will be on the search for

545
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 1: You will hear this a ton. Everyone's looking for the

546
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 1: next Brock Party. Everyone's looking for the next guy that

547
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 1: is taken on day three that has the ability to start.

548
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 1: I would say that it was initially Dak was that guy.

549
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: For a couple of years, Jack was that guy, and

550
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: so others are going to look for the cost efficient,

551
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 1: cheap quarterback that is good enough to play and have success.

552
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 1: The common in nominator between Dak Prescott and Brock Party

553
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 1: played a long time in college. Yeah, a lot of snaps,

554
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 1: a lot of experience. That experience allowed them to develop

555
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: a level of expertise that when they had their opportunity

556
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 1: to play right away as rookies, they took advantage of it.

557
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: Do you have anybody that fits that mold in this

558
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 1: draft class? Based off of what you've seen where you

559
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 1: talked about two guys, you talk about hyn from Fresno

560
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: Stuck about that conversation. He certainly is in that conversation.

561
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: He's the one that everyone's talked that that talks about

562
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: you talking about Hooker was a six year player. Has

563
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 1: it has to be someone who has played a ton

564
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 1: because you're seeing the experience. Broder Purtty was like a

565
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,120
Speaker 1: four year starter to four year starter at Iowa State.

566
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: All those snaps, all those reps matter. Kenny Pickett first

567
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: round pick last year, he had a significant amount of

568
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: experience before he comes to the National Football League, and

569
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 1: so that's what you're looking for. You're looking for someone

570
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 1: who's played a lot because that play, that ability to

571
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 1: see things, process things, work through things helps him when

572
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 1: they get to the pros. I'm looking down the list

573
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,199
Speaker 1: at the moment and I'm seeing Clayton Tune Houston. You

574
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 1: talk about a blinking light for somebody that would fit

575
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: the Cowboys mold. It would fit the value of a

576
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 1: Day three guy and has that experience and the leadership ability.

577
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: He's done so in multiple programs throughout but he's coming

578
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: out of Houston. Yeah, he certainly has, and he's done

579
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 1: it a ton. He does have that experience, and everyone

580
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: has got to circle those guys because what happens in

581
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: our league, it's a copykt league. So when team team see,

582
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 1: like you remember last year, the buzz at this time was, oh,

583
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: I gotta find a Ebo Savor. I gotta find a

584
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: versaal player that can do a bunch of different things

585
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 1: on the defensive, all these things or whatever. So now

586
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: it's the Brock Purdy conversation is going to be that,

587
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 1: and it's not only Brock Purdy, but then it's also

588
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 1: gonna be the Jalen Hurts, who's the underrated, undervalued quarterback

589
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 1: that has the intangibles to work in his game and

590
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 1: get better and become a guy that emerges from Day

591
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: two Day three status to being a legitimate starter that

592
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: can lead a team. Yeah, and you mentioned Hendon Hooker.

593
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,479
Speaker 1: One thing that I like about him and I think

594
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: is going to suit him in this league is his

595
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 1: ability to improvise. I think a lot of teams are

596
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: starting to look for quarterbacks that have the ability to improvise.

597
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: Number one, because offensive line plays the story for another day.

598
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: It is it's absolutely hard. Those guys don't get as

599
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 1: much time, absolutely understand, but that is something that a

600
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: quality that I think is really important for most of

601
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: the guys that are playing the quarterback position moving forward.

602
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 1: How do you improvise? How do you play on the run,

603
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 1: how do you pass on the run. How's your accuracy

604
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,479
Speaker 1: on the run Because a lot of these guys are

605
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 1: running for their lives sometimes, so it's important. There are

606
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: two things about that point. So coaches will tell you

607
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: that you want a quarterback who is athletic, and so

608
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: you got to make sure that it's not necessarily the

609
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: athlete that is playing quarterback, but you want a quarterback

610
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: that's polish a quarterback play, but as the athleticism to

611
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: move around. When we talked about those other guys in

612
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: the AFC, when we talked about Joe Burrow and Justin

613
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 1: Herbert and John. Those guys are quarterbacks who also have

614
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: the athleticism to move around and by a time. Because

615
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 1: as good as you are as a play call, and

616
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: you can't call a perfect play every time, sometimes you

617
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 1: want the quarterback to be able to bail you out

618
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 1: and erase it. Secondly, I just had a conversation with

619
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 1: John Fox, longtime NFL head coach. He was now going

620
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: to consult with the Detroit Lions, and he said, the

621
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: biggest mismatch on the field old line versus D line.

622
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 1: You deal them with guys who are running five four

623
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 1: forties versus guys that are four six forties. And as

624
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: much as we want to think that those guys can

625
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 1: hold up, it's difficult because you're dealing with superheroes. On

626
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 1: the other end, we've seen in Dallas Michael Parsons doing

627
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: this thing against everybody. You can't as much as you

628
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 1: draw up to protection, you cannot block a guy like that.

629
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 1: So your quarterback has to be able to escape and

630
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: maneuver and maybe buy some time to help the mismatches

631
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: that are going on up front. So with that being said,

632
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,959
Speaker 1: when we've talked about the interviews in Indianapolis and with

633
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: these teams. Is is it more one way or the

634
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 1: other volatile for the quarterback position to impress in these

635
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: interviews than it is for any other position to impress

636
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 1: or is it kind of even across the board the

637
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 1: position a position. No, it's always quarterback because the quarterback

638
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 1: has tasked with so much. So what you're trying to

639
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: figure out what the quarterback is he mature enough to

640
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: handle the thing that there used to be saying that

641
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 1: your quarterback is expected to be presidential? The way that

642
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 1: he carries himself, there's there's a regalness to the way

643
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: that he goes about his business, the way that he

644
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 1: is on point, how smart he is because outside of

645
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 1: the owner and the head coach, he's biggest representative of

646
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: the franchise. Every day, every time that he steps in

647
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: front of the mic, there's something that he projects that

648
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: represents the franchise. The other thing, we want him to

649
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: be the leader of the team, whether he is or not,

650
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 1: he has to be able to really like take all

651
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 1: these different personalities in the locker room and get them

652
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: going in the right direction. So when you think about

653
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, there are a lot of things that you

654
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: can say about Dak Prescott. The one thing that you

655
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 1: can't question his leadership ability and his ability to galvanize

656
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 1: the team. And so there's a certain skill that you

657
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 1: have to have and you have to display to be

658
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: able to do that. So in these interviews, you have

659
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: to have the sense, can I see this guy standing

660
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: in front of the room commanding a group of men

661
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 1: that may be significantly older than him. So it's really

662
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 1: important veterans, some of those veterans, those guys that have

663
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 1: been there for a while, And to your point, this

664
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: year was my first time really being in the locker room.

665
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: And it sounds so cliche when we say it about

666
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott and about the quarterback position, like they gotta

667
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 1: be good leaders. But to witness it, to witness him

668
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: being able to go to one guy and deal with it,

669
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 1: you know, and talk to him and then go to

670
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: the whole other side of the locker room, it's important.

671
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 1: It's really important moving forward, especially when you start talking

672
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 1: about these young quarterbacks trying to integrate themselves into these

673
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: locker rooms. Lastly, because you got to see it up

674
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 1: closer personal, Dak had maybe his worst year than we've seen. Yeah,

675
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 1: but did his personality change now? Was he surly had

676
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: ordery with the press? Did he did he blame others?

677
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: He didn't do that, And so what you feel good

678
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 1: about is, Okay, he has a level of toughness that

679
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: equips him to be ready for this position. And so

680
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: that toughness is an underrated trait that you're looking for

681
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 1: a quarterbacks. I completely agree, and I think that's something

682
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: that Cowboys fans sometimes lose track of. Sometimes media tracks

683
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 1: loses track of it as well. But like you just said,

684
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 1: worst career year on the field outside of injuries, but

685
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: then he comes back. He won Walter Payton Man of

686
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: the Year for a reason. I mean, he's still the

687
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 1: same Dak Prescott. So the fact that he was able

688
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 1: to study the ship from his own interior struggles, yes,

689
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: is something that should be commended. And I completely agree.

690
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,799
Speaker 1: Not everybody is built like that, and he is one

691
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 1: guy that certainly is built like that. Moving forward, all right,

692
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: the panel's prediction prior to the workouts at the combine

693
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 1: the Cowboys first round pick, first round pick. Early prediction.

694
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,800
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because this is early because free agency hasn't happened.

695
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: You haven't necessarily seen pro days. You don't know who

696
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 1: the thirty visit guys are. You don't know who a

697
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 1: Dallas Day guy is. Who is your first round prediction

698
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: prior to the combine. It's great questions. JD was the

699
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:44,040
Speaker 1: one that answered or asked it, by the way. Okay, okay,

700
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:47,799
Speaker 1: So let's go go position by position. Let's go cornerback,

701
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 1: corner first round pick, right, yeah, first twenty sixth overall.

702
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,319
Speaker 1: So we need someone opposite Treyvon Dicks because last year

703
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 1: when Anthony Brown got hurt. You're not alone with this,

704
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 1: but it was bad on that other side. Okay, And

705
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 1: so now stylistically, how does dan Quinn want to play.

706
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 1: Do they want to be more man to man or

707
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 1: do they want to be more zone ish, Because then

708
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 1: that changes the equation because camp Smith could be there

709
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: from South Carolina. He's more zone, more eyes, more of

710
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:16,359
Speaker 1: that part. But then you can have some of these

711
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 1: other guys. Delante Banks from Maryland, who's kind of like

712
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: your tall super athlete in magurate with the ball skills.

713
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 1: You know he's gonna be there. Kylie Ringo Potensi could

714
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,799
Speaker 1: be there, super athlete, great straight line speed and explosiveness.

715
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 1: Ball skills are lacking. But with Trayvon on one side

716
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 1: who has exceptional ball skills, is that's something that you're

717
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: looking in. I mean, of course it helps if you

718
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 1: can have an all encompassy corner. Well, that corner that's

719
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 1: opposite Traymond is gonna get a lot of work. So

720
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 1: there a lot of we saw how the balls kind

721
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 1: of now wherever the every volving corner was over there,

722
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 1: he got a lot of action, and he will continue

723
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 1: to get that action. So they have to have the

724
00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 1: temperament and the length and those things. And you know,

725
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, like I know, everyone projects this got

726
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 1: to go higher. But he may end up being there

727
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 1: because there's some people that worry about some of the stuff.

728
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: Joey Porter Junior, Penn State, Penn State Super Long. I

729
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 1: think I was doing backflip if Joey Porter Junior was there.

730
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: The only reason why I tell you that he may

731
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: end up being in the mid twenties is because when

732
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 1: people look at the tape, they see him press knows

733
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,399
Speaker 1: the knows, but you rarely see him backpedal. You don't

734
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 1: see him use other tools in the toolbox. And he's

735
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 1: always a bump and run guys, so he might be there.

736
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: And if you're fascinated by two things, if you're fascinated

737
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 1: by the lynth like dan Quinn appears to be, and

738
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 1: if you believe that you have a great teacher like

739
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 1: our Harrison Joe Witt junior, you may take a guy

740
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 1: like that because you feel like you can develop him

741
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 1: and get him to play the way did you want

742
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 1: to play on their perimeter? And that's what I was

743
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: gonna say, is like looking at this cornerback class, there's

744
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 1: only a few guys to me that stand out that

745
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 1: half the ball skills that I guess you would be

746
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,760
Speaker 1: looking for great you know, good coverage, always in position,

747
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: but are they playing on the ball like that? We

748
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: were talking about this yesterday, um because I was asking

749
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: Kyle like, do you get a more conservative corner on

750
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 1: that other side? And what I mean by that it's

751
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: just not as much of a risk tape girl or

752
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 1: whatever as Traymon. But then you look at my Manuel

753
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,960
Speaker 1: Forbes and you know, and Mississippi State, and you say,

754
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,799
Speaker 1: he is a lot like Trayvon. So do you want

755
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 1: do you want that same? I think dan Quinn could

756
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:23,439
Speaker 1: just plug him in. But I think he would only

757
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 1: the only thing I was I was hiring him coming

758
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 1: into the event. Now it might be lying season, But

759
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,840
Speaker 1: then I have people tell me that he only weighed

760
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:35,359
Speaker 1: in like he was one sixty two. Really not not here,

761
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,359
Speaker 1: but he was one sixty two during the season, one

762
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 1: sixty five during the season, and we'll get him here.

763
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,240
Speaker 1: Of course, that made my stomach. That made my stomach

764
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: because I was like the biggest fan. I was saying, Hey,

765
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: it's my guy. I dropped a bed to my Jeff

766
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: just because I wanted to name it. Have it. Because

767
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 1: the ball skills that you talked about, I don't know

768
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:54,720
Speaker 1: if there's a better guy that plays with his eyes

769
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: than him, Like Divine Withers wonted to be long gone

770
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 1: from Illinois, but Emmanuel Forbes his ability to play because

771
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 1: I wrote that in my notes. Not only can he

772
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,239
Speaker 1: play press, but he plays cover zero. Where he's on

773
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 1: the island, he's making plays. I want to see at

774
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:12,320
Speaker 1: four pick sixes through his career, like this dude is fantastic.

775
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: But they said Buck, the size and the tackling could

776
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: be issues. So his size thing is significant, like how

777
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 1: much he weighs in at we need him to come

778
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: in a little thicker because there were This one is

779
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 1: one eight one eighties a lot of different than one

780
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 1: sixty five, no doubt. And the Cowboys are known for

781
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 1: wanting to have some some white some size. Hurt. My

782
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 1: feelings hurt too. It hurt me my first round pick

783
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 1: that I could see there there being being there because

784
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: of the quarterback stuff and all that stuff. Um a

785
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: Vila from Steve a Vila from tu I think that

786
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 1: the Cowboys could definitely benefit from his play, um the flexibility,

787
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,399
Speaker 1: especially at guard. Right now we're looking at I don't

788
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 1: really know if you don't know if my McGovern's gonna

789
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 1: come back this year. It feels like because Connor McGovern's

790
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:07,760
Speaker 1: an undrafted free agent. Tyrn Smith of Courses Stephen Jones

791
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:09,840
Speaker 1: backed up Tyrn Smith. He says he expects him to

792
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:13,919
Speaker 1: be back this upcoming year, but that's still a big question.

793
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: Who's always been hurt though my eighteen games in the

794
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,279
Speaker 1: last three years, so you keep you keep counting on

795
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: a guy who's always hurt. At some point you have

796
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 1: to have like the replacement ready and Kyl Smith is

797
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:27,840
Speaker 1: a really good job try when he had an opportunity,

798
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 1: But what does that look like. Because the other thing

799
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 1: we talk about Dak Prescott, because we have to spend

800
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 1: it forward. You want to get return to the investment,

801
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 1: you gotta protect him up front. And when the Cowboys

802
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 1: have been at their best, they've been able to run

803
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: the ball when they want to run it. They've also

804
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: been able to throw off play action. You gotta have

805
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: the fortunes up front to be able to do that.

806
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 1: And to your point and TI, your pressure is something

807
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 1: that especially come up with thumb or stuff like that

808
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 1: is something that that Dak Prescott is that's not one

809
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 1: of his favorite things. I want to say is that

810
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: the interior pressure, especially with the escapability. But with the

811
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,359
Speaker 1: first round pick, Cowboys typically hit on the first round

812
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,320
Speaker 1: picks with offensive line, especially offensive line. They have in

813
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 1: their mind that if we if it's the first round,

814
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: or this guy's probably gonna work. And that's why I

815
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: believe that possibly Steve Villa could be a guy that

816
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 1: they take. Well, it makes sense the way that you're thinking,

817
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:16,840
Speaker 1: because the first team that you have to do is

818
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 1: you gotta win the division. Well, we're coming off a

819
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 1: year which the Philadelphia Eagles has seventy secks no one

820
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 1: could block them up front, and you saw firsthand what

821
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:28,280
Speaker 1: it looks like when you're unable to protect the quarterback

822
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:30,320
Speaker 1: against that team. So the only way you can do

823
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: it you have to be able to beat them in

824
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 1: the print, in the churches. And so maybe investing in

825
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 1: an offensive guard an offensive lineman up there gives you

826
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,759
Speaker 1: the ability to go total toe with the team that

827
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,319
Speaker 1: now where's the crown in the NFC, and that will

828
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: be the Eagles. There's another there's another piece of content

829
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 1: that's That's the thing though, is offensive line. I think

830
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:03,320
Speaker 1: it's a bigger need than people really realize. And I

831
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 1: think overall your first second or third round pick, I

832
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 1: would really I'm not going out on a lamb here.

833
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,359
Speaker 1: There's going to be an offensive lineman in the first

834
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 1: three rounds for the Cowboys because they need to, like

835
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 1: you said, beat some of those teams that are just

836
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 1: beefy upfront that they have that pass rushing ability. Washington's

837
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 1: in there too, They've got a great front line. To

838
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 1: look at the team, So let's look at the team

839
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: that where they bowed out the San Francisco forty nine. Yeah,

840
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,360
Speaker 1: what they have upfront, I mean you talk about physicality

841
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: to being able to win into trenches. I think now

842
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 1: on the morning, I'll talk to you guys like that

843
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 1: might be that might be the move. The move might

844
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: be to double up on the offensive line, because you

845
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 1: also said they've had a lot of success. Whoever is

846
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,800
Speaker 1: in charge of finding their offensive lineman, they've done a

847
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 1: really good job of doing it. So maybe you lean

848
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 1: more into that because one thing that you cannot do

849
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: in the first round. You can't have an egregious miss

850
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: now and the Cowboys are proven that they are able

851
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 1: to find lineman in the first round, So maybe you

852
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: go back and do it. So this is a general

853
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 1: and felt question already asked. If you're Chicago, of course,

854
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: there have been some rumors that they could trade out

855
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: of the first overall pick. Would you do it before

856
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: the draft or would you do it the night of

857
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,879
Speaker 1: the draft or right up next to it in order

858
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 1: to kind of have the most leverage all the way through.

859
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 1: So there are a few different ways if you're Chicago,

860
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 1: where you want to leverage this. So a lot of

861
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 1: it would be determined. You have to wait until after

862
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 1: the combine because you have to see if anyone's gonna

863
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 1: fall in love with the quarterback. Because that would drive

864
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 1: the interest in the number one pick. If you get

865
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,319
Speaker 1: teams that are interested in the number one overall pick.

866
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 1: Now you have to figure out, Okay, what do we

867
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,359
Speaker 1: want to do. Do we want to let the Colts

868
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,320
Speaker 1: move up from four to one, we take their fourth

869
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 1: and then continue to trade down so we accumulate all

870
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:51,080
Speaker 1: of these picks to rebuild the team. Because for the Bears,

871
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 1: one players not going to break them right back. They

872
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 1: have to they have to have multiple blue chip players.

873
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 1: Defends the gap on the competition. And so look, you

874
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 1: do it with the deal is right. Normally the closer

875
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,359
Speaker 1: that you get to the draft deadlines kind of bring

876
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,759
Speaker 1: about movement. Um I always speak, if they're gonna move

877
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:10,799
Speaker 1: the pig, they have to move it fairly earlier. Yeah,

878
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,520
Speaker 1: just this maybe is a sidebar. But with what's going

879
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:19,879
Speaker 1: on with the Bears with um with Justin Fields, he's

880
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 1: already what two three years in years, and they are

881
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,320
Speaker 1: really in a like you said, like, one guy's not

882
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,399
Speaker 1: gonna do it, two guys might under three, you're gonna

883
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 1: have to. They're gonna have to attack free agency heavily

884
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,640
Speaker 1: and draft. Well, with that being said, how do you

885
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 1: handle him? Do you like do you keep him there

886
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,440
Speaker 1: while you're rebuilding because you don't want to, especially with

887
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,800
Speaker 1: how he plays the game, especially with how mobile he

888
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,360
Speaker 1: is and his athleticism. Do you want to waste what

889
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 1: his his good year, his young years with rebuilding like that. Yeah,

890
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 1: I'm out of curiosity. Look, I think I think he

891
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: plays how he plays, and yeah, how he plays the

892
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: way he plays quarter back, you got to do that.

893
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: I think with Jalen Hurts going to the super Bowl,

894
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 1: I think it makes Justin Fields style of play. It

895
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 1: kind of makes it irrelevant because you see the team

896
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 1: go to the super Bowl with a player playing like that,

897
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,280
Speaker 1: so he can continue to do that. The thing about

898
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 1: Justin Fields, you have to take Justin Fields versus this class.

899
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,879
Speaker 1: So if Justin Fields was in this class, how would

900
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 1: he stack up compared to C. J. Stroile, Bryce Young,

901
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: Will Levis and those other guys. And unless you feel

902
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 1: those other guys are better or significantly better, you say

903
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 1: the course with him. Yes, at some point you want to.

904
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 1: You would love to reset to Rockie Clark, but you

905
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 1: don't give away a good player to then go kind

906
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:42,640
Speaker 1: of wandering in the wild trying to find another quarterback

907
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 1: that may be as good as him tracking that I

908
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: was more so just worry about I mean, granted, like

909
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: you said, like Jalen still was if I'm understanding, was

910
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 1: he still played injured? Correct? So and justin deal with

911
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 1: deal with quite a few injuries this season as well.

912
00:44:57,040 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 1: And I think that the mobile quarterback is kind of

913
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,880
Speaker 1: what people are improvising, you know, and that's fantastic. I

914
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,719
Speaker 1: just with how much, like you said, especially on the

915
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:07,600
Speaker 1: offensive side of the ball, they need offensive line. Then

916
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: you receiver's day. How you can't change that quickly? So

917
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 1: do you just go through the change with him or

918
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 1: I think you have to go through the change with

919
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 1: him because what you're hoping is that he can he

920
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,160
Speaker 1: can continue to improve and get better. The league is

921
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 1: where it's hard for a quarterback to stay healthy. You

922
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 1: saw seventy different quarterbacks play. And so whether you play

923
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 1: in the pocket, outside of the pocket, whether you're a

924
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: runner or just a thrower, if you get hit, you

925
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 1: don't get hurt at quarterback Like that's that's that's that's

926
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:35,880
Speaker 1: just kind of the reality of the situation. And so

927
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 1: what you would like to do is you like to

928
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:39,839
Speaker 1: hedge against your bet. So you want to make sure

929
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:41,879
Speaker 1: that you have a backup in place that can play,

930
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:44,759
Speaker 1: and then you want to continue to surround him. To

931
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,880
Speaker 1: think about the Bears, they're so far away in a

932
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 1: few different areas. Defensively, they traded away to the top

933
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 1: players Robert Quinn and then Roquan Smith in the middle

934
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:55,759
Speaker 1: of the year, so they have to really upgrade and

935
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:57,680
Speaker 1: they can have to upgrade it. I mean, they haven't

936
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 1: know a lot of cap space, but the spinning the

937
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 1: cap space a free agency drafting and hitting all the

938
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 1: players is unlikely. But I think your best course of

939
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 1: Ashtons Coatilla low with Justin Fields as your quarterback. It's

940
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:13,080
Speaker 1: interesting to think about because, I mean, we talked about

941
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 1: the value of drafting a quarterback consistently. Even in the

942
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:18,920
Speaker 1: Cowboys scenario where you have a Dak Prescott that you

943
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 1: can rely on as a franchise quarterback. It does it

944
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 1: brings that value up when you bring out the number

945
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: of seventy quarterbacks playing, because it certainly is something to

946
00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 1: keep in mind. Tax tax season can be more stressful

947
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:34,080

1022
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,399
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna make it stressful like that. But when

1023
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,240
Speaker 1: we get into the nitty gritty of this draft class,

1024
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:48,279
Speaker 1: both of you have watched a boatload of film, ton

1025
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,800
Speaker 1: of film around these draft prospects. Who's been your favorite

1026
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:55,760
Speaker 1: film watch so far? I'll start with Bucky, because Aisha,

1027
00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:58,800
Speaker 1: we've at least heard some of your pet cats, some

1028
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:05,400
Speaker 1: of your favorites, your piss yea, who's yet cats? Running

1029
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:09,719
Speaker 1: back from Spears is one of my guys. He's one

1030
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:12,279
Speaker 1: of my favorites. I think he's gonna be I think

1031
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:15,800
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a handful. And you put him in

1032
00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 1: and let him go, and you think about the success

1033
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 1: that Tony Pollard has been able to have an the

1034
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:21,920
Speaker 1: National Football League. Has that explosive back I think he

1035
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 1: has all the day. He can catch the ball out

1036
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,600
Speaker 1: of the backfield. He's electric. Uh. He left a lasting

1037
00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 1: impression with his big game against USC at the end.

1038
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:32,600
Speaker 1: He's the one that's one of my favorites. He's a

1039
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:35,319
Speaker 1: fun one. I was at that USC the Cotton Bowl.

1040
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 1: It was at at and T Stadium. My goodness, it

1041
00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:41,719
Speaker 1: was next level phenomenal stuff. You go, Kyle, you want

1042
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 1: me to go. But I've always I've always been one

1043
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:51,160
Speaker 1: that likes the Jordan Addison, the Jackson Smith and chick buzz.

1044
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:53,560
Speaker 1: It was funny. I was talking yesterday with somebody and

1045
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:57,200
Speaker 1: they said, where do you think the Cowboys under the radar?

1046
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 1: What do you think their first round pick would be?

1047
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 1: Not your prediction, but what would be one to watch

1048
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 1: out for. You mentioned wide receivers earlier, you mentioned Ceedee

1049
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,360
Speaker 1: Lamb and then drop off to Michael Gallup at that

1050
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:09,160
Speaker 1: number two spot. I think you go and get wide

1051
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 1: receiver talent at some point. They did it last year.

1052
00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:14,200
Speaker 1: They waited on Jalen Tilbert. They felt really good about that.

1053
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,200
Speaker 1: I haven't given up on Jalen Tolbert yet. They didn't brand.

1054
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:21,760
Speaker 1: David didn't need somebody earlier. They need somebody early. Jordan Addison, USC,

1055
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 1: Jackson Smith and Jacbot Ohio State. You talk about technical

1056
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:27,920
Speaker 1: route runners. Those have been fun and I used to

1057
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 1: I used to really get onto David Hellman on this trip. Specifically,

1058
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 1: I remember getting on to Hellman when we were sitting

1059
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: at one of these tables on Radio Row and I

1060
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:36,960
Speaker 1: was like, dude, you can't always take a wide receiver.

1061
00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:39,359
Speaker 1: You can't always tell me the Cowboys are gonna take

1062
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:41,560
Speaker 1: a wide receiver. And here I am talking about a

1063
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 1: wide receiver, a couple of wide receivers that I really

1064
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 1: like in the first round. It's funny that you talk

1065
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:49,360
Speaker 1: about those two guys, because Jackman Smith a nick people

1066
00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 1: I think I've forgotten about, Like I know he didn't

1067
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,320
Speaker 1: play Butch at all this year, but the year before

1068
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,640
Speaker 1: he was unbelievable. Yeah, and he is an al STANDI

1069
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:01,319
Speaker 1: rout runner. I think three forty seven against the Rose

1070
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 1: in the best in the draft in terms of just

1071
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 1: like running around, getting the open, creating separation, made him

1072
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:09,320
Speaker 1: to get busy. He can do it. I will say this,

1073
00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,359
Speaker 1: Zay Flowers has a very soft spot in my heart

1074
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:15,320
Speaker 1: in terms of Jos in college being a big time playmaker.

1075
00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:17,919
Speaker 1: He reminds me a lot. He reminds me of ab

1076
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:20,440
Speaker 1: and Tier Brown without the craziness. Like I don't think

1077
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:22,040
Speaker 1: he has all the crazy stuff, but when you watch

1078
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 1: him run routes, can get get down and he catches

1079
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:27,720
Speaker 1: the ball on the run. He he is a problem.

1080
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:32,239
Speaker 1: Sidney Brown from Illinois is gonna be water that is

1081
00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:36,520
Speaker 1: going to get on people's nerves. I love his versatility.

1082
00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:38,960
Speaker 1: We talked about how much experience matters. It's a five

1083
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:41,719
Speaker 1: year starter. This is a guy that understands the game.

1084
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 1: He can play from different spots. But I really feel

1085
00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:45,839
Speaker 1: like I call him swiper. I feel like I call

1086
00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 1: him swiper because I feel like you can you can

1087
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,880
Speaker 1: He's because of his size, you can miss him. You

1088
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 1: can miss him, not see him. I think he's gonna

1089
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:54,279
Speaker 1: make a difference on a team when he comes in.

1090
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:57,160
Speaker 1: He's just he's a smart player. But I love his

1091
00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,440
Speaker 1: eyes and how he plays the ball. Yeah, we get

1092
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:04,840
Speaker 1: get a brother for free. We can. We try to

1093
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:07,400
Speaker 1: trade on a couple of years ago. We're still working

1094
00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:13,080
Speaker 1: one too. You can't impress the player to me, and

1095
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 1: especially with the versatility to maybe play some outside as well,

1096
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 1: if he gets the coaching and do it. That being

1097
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:20,719
Speaker 1: a sure nickel in this league has value, being able

1098
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 1: to play in the box and stuff. Yeah, I love him. Well.

1099
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:24,160
Speaker 1: I think that's the other thing you talk about, Like

1100
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:26,560
Speaker 1: one of the things that stands out this draft. All

1101
00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:29,799
Speaker 1: the safeties are nickel guys. They are there are pure

1102
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,839
Speaker 1: safeties in this class. All those guys play the star

1103
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:36,120
Speaker 1: position that was popularized in Alabama. All those guys are

1104
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 1: basically nickel corners that can hit and blitz off the

1105
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:41,840
Speaker 1: edges and so it is hard to find a pure

1106
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:44,840
Speaker 1: center fial safety. But yeah, the nickel position that you

1107
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:47,200
Speaker 1: talk about. Everyone is looking for those guys that have

1108
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 1: that versatility go inside of work to slop. Would you

1109
00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:53,560
Speaker 1: this is I can't believe I'm asking this question. Still

1110
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 1: would you take a first round running back at twenty six,

1111
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:00,279
Speaker 1: sayt B. Jean Robinson's there twenty six with you make

1112
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,279
Speaker 1: that pack. Yes, I'll run the card up. Okay, I'm

1113
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:07,960
Speaker 1: still I'm still yeah. So here here's the thing that

1114
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:10,520
Speaker 1: I think some people are missing about the first round

1115
00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:13,799
Speaker 1: running back compared to the mid level guys. Okay, how

1116
00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:19,479
Speaker 1: many bid level guys have been the guy beyond three years?

1117
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:22,200
Speaker 1: So what happens is you get a flash in the pan,

1118
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:23,719
Speaker 1: a guy who can do it for one year. Whatever

1119
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:26,319
Speaker 1: the difference is, your first round back, your workhorse back.

1120
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,560
Speaker 1: He's a dude who has always been the dude who

1121
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 1: is comfortable being to do, comfortable being the workhorse. Even

1122
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:35,759
Speaker 1: with Ezekiel Elliott has kind of come back to the pack,

1123
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:38,880
Speaker 1: there's still something about him as the league guy. And

1124
00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:43,359
Speaker 1: remember what this seven or eight for Zeke year? Yeah

1125
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:47,040
Speaker 1: years that we're going into your eight. You're so those

1126
00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:49,120
Speaker 1: first five years were pretty solid. So I think now

1127
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 1: what you're looking for if I'm if I'm gonna get

1128
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:53,359
Speaker 1: it back, I'm gonna get it back. I don't want

1129
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:55,560
Speaker 1: to keep having a recycle or whatever. Like I'm not

1130
00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:57,040
Speaker 1: a guy that likes to go and buy use cars.

1131
00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a car. I want a car. I

1132
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:00,000
Speaker 1: won a nice new car. I want all the build

1133
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:01,960
Speaker 1: and whistles. I don't want to have to shrimp like

1134
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:03,719
Speaker 1: it's now changed. I don't want to be like, oh,

1135
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:05,360
Speaker 1: I got blue Ray in my car, as opposed to

1136
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 1: the I want all the stuff I want. I want

1137
00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,359
Speaker 1: all the stuff. And so, yeah, Bijon Robinson is there.

1138
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:14,719
Speaker 1: To me that would make so much sense because there's

1139
00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:18,520
Speaker 1: something about not only like the talent, but the size. Yea,

1140
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 1: at some point, you gotta have a big back. Big

1141
00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:22,879
Speaker 1: back wears down to deferense. You still need a big back.

1142
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 1: It continues to split Cowboys nations. I mean, and when

1143
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:28,320
Speaker 1: you talk about Mike McCarthy and kind of what he

1144
00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:30,960
Speaker 1: looks for and running back, it's kind of weird because

1145
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:33,600
Speaker 1: there were instances where he had power guys, but he

1146
00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,560
Speaker 1: also had a guy that could catch the ball out

1147
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:37,920
Speaker 1: the backfield, be shifty and things like that. So the

1148
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 1: balance to balance things out with a TP who yeah,

1149
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 1: franchise tag might be important moving forward. So it's funny

1150
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:48,040
Speaker 1: because I don't know if I shared this for me,

1151
00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:50,440
Speaker 1: if he shared this with everybody. He talked about the

1152
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:53,399
Speaker 1: tweeting Ezekiel Elliot and Tony Pollard, and he talked about

1153
00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:56,399
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott being that big old sedan. Yep, big old

1154
00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,440
Speaker 1: heavy sedan and you drive that car every day, whereas

1155
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:02,759
Speaker 1: tps to one, he's like you little fast, little catillactics,

1156
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:04,600
Speaker 1: take out on sudden, you drop the top and do that.

1157
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:06,440
Speaker 1: But if you ask him to do a heavy lifting,

1158
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,360
Speaker 1: it's not really what he does. And I think I

1159
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:12,160
Speaker 1: always want Tody Pollit to beat at his best, so

1160
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,239
Speaker 1: I don't want to change his role and give him

1161
00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 1: more responsibilities and potentially take away from make some special.

1162
00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:20,040
Speaker 1: So I'm looking for the guy that can be the

1163
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:24,800
Speaker 1: replacement to Zeke Elliott, who can do the heavy short yardage,

1164
00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:26,480
Speaker 1: four minute stuff whatever. It may not need to be

1165
00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 1: a first round backer, but at some point they need

1166
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 1: the banger to do that so TP can continue to

1167
00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 1: do what he always does. So you heard it from

1168
00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks himself. It's either be Gen Robinson or Taje Spears.

1169
00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 1: They're both gonna have a Cowboys star on their helmets,

1170
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 1: gonna be fantastic, what not, Let's make it happen. Let's

1171
00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 1: just go all skill guys. Guys, I'm waiting for the

1172
00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:53,360
Speaker 1: fist pump I got yeah, yeah, yeah, both of you,

1173
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:57,240
Speaker 1: because yeah skill guys. I'm always here, guys. All right, Bucky,

Speaker 1: I'm sure we'll catch up with you down the line.

1176
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:04,960
Speaker 1: Good luck the rest of the way, not only throughout

1177
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,680
Speaker 1: the combine, but of course throughout the draft process as well.

1178
