How are you guys feeling? Tomorrow is the 0:00:52.880 --> 0:00:56.200 official start of the NFL Draft. I know you guys 0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:59.480 are have been working for months for this draft. 0:00:59.520 --> 0:01:02.880 How are we feel today? Feeling spacey? If you will? 0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:04.000 We almost had a disaster. 0:01:04.080 --> 0:01:05.800 I was telling these guys before we got on the show, 0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:11.000 I'm gonna work from home individual now. And so I've 0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:13.280 found that I cannot actually work from home. So I 0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:15.560 go to a coffee shop nearby and I was like, 0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:17.600 you know what, I'm gonna get started about ten am 0:01:17.680 --> 0:01:19.399 this morning. I got a lot of things to do today, 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:21.039 get ready for the draft tomorrow. So I'm on my 0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:23.440 way to the coffee shop and I get the little 0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:27.000 email notification from Chris Beam that the break is starting 0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:30.440 in thirty minutes. I was like, oh, yeah, today is Wednesday. 0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:32.600 I do have a show every Wednesday at ten am, 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:33.960 and I've had it for the last year. 0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:35.360 And yeah, I made it. 0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:37.160 So I'm in a hoodie sweatpants, but I am here 0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:39.119 technically working from home at the moment. 0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:42.600 Well, we're glad you made it. I would have seen 0:01:42.680 --> 0:01:50.840 Derek fuming with all right, well, let's get started. We're 0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:55.200 gonna just wrap up everything pre draft, talk about while 0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:58.720 you guys are expecting, who are your final top guys 0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:02.600 and names that you're looking at as of today. And 0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:06.080 before we get started with that, yesterday there was the 0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:11.000 famous annual pre draft conference, that press conference at the 0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:14.720 Cowboys hold. It was Will McClay, Stephen Jones, Jerry Jones, 0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:17.840 and Brian Schottenheimer speaking to the media. And while that 0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:20.360 was happening, I wanted to bring something that happened yesterday. 0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:26.040 We saw a sighting of Stephen Stephan Gilmour, former cornerback 0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:28.959 that played here with the Cowboys for a couple of years. 0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:31.160 I don't remember how long, just one year, just one year. 0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:34.880 And then that popped a lot of questions like, Okay, 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:37.280 what is he doing here in the building? Are the 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:40.320 Cowboys looking to sign the guy and bring him back? 0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:42.880 We know the need and necessity that the Cowboys are 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:48.040 currently having at the cornerback position. So any reports on 0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:51.280 what's going on there, what is expected and why he 0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:52.960 was here in the building. 0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:56.000 Yeah, the Cowboys didn't know. So there's a lot of 0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:58.160 things that happen here in the Star. There's businesses on 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:01.519 the other side. There's probably a good chance. 0:03:01.320 --> 0:03:03.600 That is it one of those quote unquote didn't know. 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:06.079 Who knows? 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:08.240 You know, I didn't feel like digging enough to figure 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:12.359 out the meeting of that. But regardless, the Cowboys did 0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:14.600 not have a meeting with him yesterday. If they did, 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:18.040 they wouldn't have scheduled it during the press conference. So no, 0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:21.280 I could Stefan Gilmore, you know, stumble his way back 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:24.239 in here, maybe, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:27.440 Yeah, I think that, you know, Gilmore having played here, 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:29.240 he knows the building, he knows who the player a 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:31.880 lot is. Even if he came in for an official visit, 0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:35.800 they wouldn't let him walk through the front door. Everybody's right, 0:03:35.880 --> 0:03:37.920 Nick's right, talking about just across the way. There are 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:39.960 a lot of businesses here. He might have had a 0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:44.200 meeting with somebody about, you know, something he's doing off 0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:47.920 the field, and so that would be I think, what 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:51.360 would bring him here. But yeah, the player entrance is 0:03:51.440 --> 0:03:54.800 completely different from the main entrance, and then he would 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:57.560 probably be walking with somebody. If he came in for 0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:02.360 say a physical, for a workout, he would leave from 0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:05.360 a different entrance. And then so that to me, I 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:08.600 think was just him probably you know, coming home, coming 0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:11.760 by doing some business. And then it kind of ended 0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:14.320 up that everybody happened to be in the media room, 0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:18.240 which is right there off the age room. It's completely glass, 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:21.040 so you can see people coming and going, and I 0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:24.159 just think the our media got an eye full of 0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:27.120 a former cornerback here and had to scramble around a 0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:28.800 little bit to kind of figure that out. 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:34.240 And then from those conversations that happened yesterday, there's still 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:37.160 a lot of talks and questions about whether or not 0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:40.360 the Cowboys are willing to trade and trade conversations. Are 0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:43.600 they willing to trade up back and get some more picks? 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.800 How are you guys currently feeling in that regards? We 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:49.360 know based on history, like Jerry Jones, is not afraid 0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:53.120 of making any kind of trade. And this off season 0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:57.320 during free agency, we've seen a lot more trades happening 0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:01.160 that the Cowboys half made for veteran to add to 0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:04.880 their roster. How are you guys feeling about heading into 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:08.120 the draft? Are you guys expecting a trade to happen? 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:12.920 I think if one is there, it certainly could be 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:15.680 on the table for them. I think this team wants 0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:18.800 to trade back from fifteen and acquire some more capital, 0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:21.760 or excuse me, trade back from twelve to acquire some 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:24.280 more capital. Fifteen happens to be an option for them, 0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:27.880 I think to Atlanta, huh Atlanta. Yeah, Atlanta doesn't have 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:30.040 many picks, but they're looking to come up. So I 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:31.800 don't know if that would factor in future picks or 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:34.280 whatever else, but Cowboys need picks this year, you know. 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:36.680 I'm looking at Atlanta at fifteen, Seattle at eighteen, Denver 0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:38.840 at twenty, and Houston at twenty five. I think those 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.599 are some opportunities that could potentially, you know, present themselves 0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:43.880 to jump up. Even the Chiefs all the way back 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:45.640 in the back end of the first round. I wouldn't 0:05:45.640 --> 0:05:48.080 be surprised if they pony up some major capital to 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:50.080 come up and take an offensive lineman if one slips. 0:05:50.120 --> 0:05:53.240 But you know, obviously this team could use an extra 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:56.320 Day two pick a lot like it was last year. 0:05:57.320 --> 0:06:00.560 And if that phone rings, then sure Jerry will pick 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:02.440 it up and see what the offer looks like. But 0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:05.480 also another thing to factor in is there are not 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:09.960 a lot of teams looking to trade up this year necessarily, 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:12.280 and there are a lot looking to trade back. How 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:14.719 does that affect the market? You might not get the 0:06:14.800 --> 0:06:16.520 value for your pick. We've talked about it on the 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:18.720 Draft Show, Brian has mentioned it. You know, you want 0:06:18.760 --> 0:06:21.039 to get that value for your pick. There was a 0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:22.800 report that came out this morning that a lot of 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:26.400 these Draft day first round type trades are being offered 0:06:26.440 --> 0:06:29.000 for about seventy sits on the dollar, and so you 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.640 want you want value for that pick if you are 0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:33.240 moving back. 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:36.000 Yeah, I think there's a couple of different things that 0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:39.240 we can focus on. And Nick took the draft route 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:42.960 of far as tradings and Jerry Jones mentioned it yesterday 0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:45.880 and we've been pretty adamant about that throughout. Whether all 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:49.039 the platforms were on the Joneses are not interested in 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.599 picking up the phone. They're only interested in picking up 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:53.920 the phone if in fact that someone is calling them. 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:55.640 And I sat in that war room with them for 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:59.080 six years and kind of always we're thinking, well, maybe 0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:00.760 we should be a little bit more here, maybe we 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:04.239 should try and do that. But they're pretty much set 0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:07.560 on if they're if the phone is you're calling them, 0:07:08.000 --> 0:07:10.080 they're willing to deal with you. They're not really interested 0:07:10.120 --> 0:07:12.480 in calling you and trying to not get value for 0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:15.440 their pick. So that's something that Jerry Jones was really 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:18.800 adamant about, and it's just again something that we've talked 0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:21.920 about a bunch before. He even said that the cowboys 0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:24.200 are interested in you know, you call them, they're not 0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:26.400 going to call you. Now, let's focus on the other 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.920 end of it. You know, they were talking about substantial 0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:32.360 names or potential names that could be trading. I have 0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:34.480 a group of gang of seven that I like to 0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:37.600 call around the league, some general managers, some directors of 0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:40.880 player personnel who live and die this with these these 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:45.080 moves every day names I started to hear about and listen, 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:46.920 these are kind of cowboys fits. 0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:49.000 Will they do these names? 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:51.920 I don't know, but these are names that my gang 0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:54.480 of seven was talking about available players. 0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:54.800 Jy R. 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.720 Alexander from the Green Bay Packers, we're talking about him. 0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:00.720 Jalen Ramsey was a name that was mentioned as well 0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:04.680 as the guy that you could absolutely have, Travis ATM 0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:06.920 the running back was a name that was mentioned here. 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:10.560 George Pickens was a name also from the Pittsburgh Steelers. 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:17.520 And then also Jamison Wilson excuse me, Jamison Williams of 0:08:17.640 --> 0:08:20.440 the Detroit Lions, and I was hearing that he was 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:24.280 available for like a third round pick. So those are names. Now, 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:26.800 will the Cowboys do that? Jerry talked about, you know 0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:29.720 in the walk off. I believe Nick even tweeted about it, 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:33.400 you know, talking about that the Cowboys were looking at 0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:35.560 some possibilities of making some moves. 0:08:35.920 --> 0:08:37.320 Well it happened. We'll see. 0:08:37.400 --> 0:08:40.679 But these are the types of names right now that 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:43.319 are being floated in the market. 0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:48.679 Well as far as and I know it's probably unlikely. 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:53.080 How Nick just said that the Cowboys would trade up, 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:57.839 But is there a player that you would trade up for? 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:00.760 In how high did you guys go? 0:09:01.400 --> 0:09:03.760 I mean, for me, it would only be if Travis 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:06.640 Hunter somehow slips to like seven or eight other than that, 0:09:06.720 --> 0:09:08.280 I'm not trading up in this draft. I don't think 0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:10.040 this team has any business doing. 0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:12.400 So, Yeah, I think the one player we were trying 0:09:12.440 --> 0:09:15.360 to in some of our again platforms that we've had, 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:18.560 we've tried to think about, you know, Travis Hunter for 0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:20.560 a lot of us, was you know, is the number 0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:23.160 one player on our board. If you stack your board 0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:27.600 one to one P fifty, he would likely be number 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:30.640 one on a lot of boards. And so if in 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:33.439 fact that he and right now he's not going to 0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:35.640 go one overall, now he probably can go too. 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:37.839 But what if he were to get to. 0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:40.520 The Giants at three? What if he was to get 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:45.360 to New England at four, would you then consider moving 0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:48.080 up to you know, go that And the way that 0:09:48.200 --> 0:09:51.240 Nick is kind of talking about this that moving up 0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:55.160 might not be as as harsh as we've seen in 0:09:55.160 --> 0:09:58.040 the past, and so teams might be willing to come 0:09:58.080 --> 0:10:00.320 out of there. But again, you want value for your pick. 0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:03.319 Travis Hunter would be the one guy that I agree 0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:05.120 with Nick on that that I think that I would 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:07.920 would probably try and trade up for if that was 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:10.520 the case. If he got into that range where it 0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:12.320 was very where it was manageable, for you. 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:16.160 Okay, Now let's jump into a bunch of random questions 0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:19.800 about the draft. Is there a position that you guys 0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:23.319 will walk out of the draft feeling like, and I'm 0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:26.840 speaking on day one, first round, that if the Cowboys 0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:30.240 were to see like this position specifically, you guys would 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:30.720 be like. 0:10:30.840 --> 0:10:31.840 What are we doing here? 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:33.439 What is going on? 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:37.679 Or would you feel that at that position you pretty 0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:42.040 much hit it, hit the nail in the head with whoever. 0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:45.000 You pick, Nick, I'll take this one because if you 0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:49.400 look at in this morning, Peter Schrager from ESPN, who's 0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:52.920 a very respected insider around the league. 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:54.160 He was with the you know, with. 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:58.360 The with the the league, you know, with their television 0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:00.840 program and stuff like that, the NFL that working things, 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:03.720 so very respected guy put out a mock draft today 0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:08.920 where he had Mason Graham, the defensive tackle from Michigan, 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:12.880 going all the way past the Cowboys to thirteen, so 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:15.760 you know, and then the Cowboys were taking Tyler Booker 0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:18.840 with McMillan also being on the board. It kind of 0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:21.080 threw me for a loop a little bit there. But 0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:24.920 if all of a sudden you're in a situation now, Nick, 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:26.360 I'll ask you this question too. 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:27.679 Would you feel. 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:31.120 Good about Mason Graham being that he's like a three 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:35.960 technique but could play the one technique with you signing 0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:39.440 OsO DIGGI zuwell, would you feel that that's a good 0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:42.280 pick for the Cowboys to do? And I also throw 0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:46.720 Walter Nolan in that group as well. Where is three 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:51.480 technique now out of question for this football team with 0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:54.640 what the additions like, I say, the signing of Osa 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:57.640 Solomon Thomas coming on board. Are you out of the 0:11:57.679 --> 0:11:58.840 three technique business? 0:11:59.040 --> 0:11:59.240 Yeah? 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:01.079 I think if it's a way where Mason Graham is 0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:03.120 there for you at twelve, then I think that phone's 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:04.679 going to be ringing a lot more and you have 0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:06.920 something pretty to dangle in front of them rather than 0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:08.760 potentially getting seventy cents on the dollar. 0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:11.000 I don't see a need. 0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:13.000 I don't believe so. 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:14.760 And I don't see a need for Mason Graham on 0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:17.040 this team. I would see a need potentially, even if 0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:19.199 this means trading back to where you don't have any 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:21.280 first round grades anymore and you're at twenty, I think 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:22.720 that would be worth it to pick up an extra 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:23.800 pick in this sense. 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:28.280 Okay, so you would feel like the me personally, I 0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:30.600 don't think that the one position that I kind of 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:32.800 felt that and that's why I brought up the defensive 0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:35.959 tackles was because I kind of feel like, unless it's 0:12:36.000 --> 0:12:38.760 a one technique, but I don't see them taking a 0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:41.920 one technique unless you want to play Mason Graham, who 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:44.080 could play the one. I mean, he lost a ton 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:46.640 of weight to you know, there were questions about him 0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:49.920 at the combine that you know, his his workout was 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:52.560 not going to look good and there were so he 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:55.280 lost a ton of weight to try and make himself 0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:58.520 more agile, more you know, flexible in all those things. 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:01.320 But when he plays like a three hundred and twenty pounds, 0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:03.400 which we had him, you know, he's kind of a 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:06.439 different player that way. So maybe that was thinking he's 0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:09.679 a one, but with a little bit of a lighter guy, 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:11.640 he would probably be a three. But do you think 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:15.040 he can be a one? He would be really it'd 0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:18.040 be incredible to have him next to Osa, But do 0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:20.680 you feel that's the way? I just think tackle might 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:23.600 be that position where I kind of feel that might 0:13:23.640 --> 0:13:25.600 be a little bit of an issue there. 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:28.719 I mean, he does have some mental attributes that I 0:13:28.760 --> 0:13:31.880 think would work at the one he's he's got high IQ, 0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:34.040 he's got a high motor. I think he's got some 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:37.160 game traits as well. He's flexible, he gets low. You're 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:39.320 talking about low man winning in that interior. He does 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:42.120 get low, and I think he'd be able to still 0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:45.560 get low against shorter centers if that's the case. He 0:13:45.600 --> 0:13:47.640 didn't face a ton of double teams last year, so 0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:49.400 he was lined up one on one with guys a 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:51.560 lot quite a bit. He would have to battle that, 0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:53.400 especially if he had to make a position change to 0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:53.960 the one tech. 0:13:54.800 --> 0:13:57.640 But I think he's quick enough it would it would 0:13:57.679 --> 0:13:58.040 work out. 0:13:58.080 --> 0:14:00.160 I mean, this was a heavyweight wrestling champion back in 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:03.040 high school at Anaheim Survid High School. Oddly enough, we 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:06.959 graduated high school with Heteroa McMillan. So I think it 0:14:06.960 --> 0:14:10.440 would be a fascinating, you know, decision to make between 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:11.600 two survey guys. 0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:12.760 I think that would be fascinating. 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:16.280 All right, let's take our first break. When we come back, 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.880 we'll keep talking about the drafting. Give out some more names. 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:21.640 So of who are some guys you guys should be 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:24.280 looking at headed into not just the first round, but 0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:28.120 also the Day two and Day three of this NFL draft. 0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:31.200 Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:34.160 cheatah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:37.120 online was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be 0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:39.880 faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour. 0:14:40.440 --> 0:14:42.160 But the good news is Todd has AT and T 0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:44.920 five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he 0:14:45.040 --> 0:14:47.280 learned the best thing to do is stop running and 0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:50.360 toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and 0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:53.280 T five G.

You're a fan. 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:28.000 Yeah, I'm Mandio sweatpants today. I certainly looked the part. 0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:33.280 Welcome back to the second segment, presented by blockchain dot Com. 0:17:35.040 --> 0:17:35.240 Ding. 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:40.720 Okay, let's move on to we've there's a group of 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:44.080 guys and these are the names that we keep hearing about. Popular, 0:17:44.200 --> 0:17:47.840 most popular names and most likely to be picked by 0:17:47.920 --> 0:17:51.760 the Dallas Cowboys in the first round. But my question, sorry, 0:17:52.000 --> 0:17:55.560 my question to you guys, is who's a prospect that 0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:59.919 you're lower on on than most someone that a lot 0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:04.080 of people have been talking about, but you don't grade 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:09.119 them as high as the main like the popular opinion. 0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:11.480 Or the general push taking it like first round type guys. 0:18:11.480 --> 0:18:15.160 Yes, or you know if I mean that's the easiest 0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:17.920 one because it's harder to get into those later rounds. 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:20.680 But if there's a guy that you have in mind, 0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:23.439 feel free to throw it out there, which you. 0:18:23.480 --> 0:18:23.880 Got, Brian. 0:18:25.280 --> 0:18:27.920 I think that I'm a lot lower and I think 0:18:27.960 --> 0:18:30.199 the guys are really good player and I picked him 0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:33.280 yesterday and our mock draft that when we were asked 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:36.960 on the Draft Show, three guys. I put myself in 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:39.679 a position, what would the Dallas Cowboys do if McMillan's 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:43.920 not there, who would they consider? I'm lower on Will 0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:47.359 Johnson than most. I have Will Johnson as my twenty 0:18:47.400 --> 0:18:50.119 fifth best player on my board, of my of my stack. 0:18:50.800 --> 0:18:54.680 Still that's a second round grade. I personally just like 0:18:54.800 --> 0:18:59.120 guys like ravel Baron Morrison who worked out Notre Dame, 0:18:59.160 --> 0:19:01.920 who worked out yes Day. You know they got that 0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:05.280 information about him. I just like those guys a little 0:19:05.320 --> 0:19:08.840 bit better. But the question was asked, and I appreciate 0:19:08.960 --> 0:19:11.720 Kyle Yeomen's doing this was he asked the questions about 0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:15.400 length and what that means to evaluators here, and it's 0:19:15.440 --> 0:19:17.480 important for them, and you know they talk about that. 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:21.720 But I think that I'm probably at twenty five, a 0:19:21.840 --> 0:19:26.000 little bit lower on Will Johnson than maybe some other 0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:28.199 people in this league. I think some people have him 0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:31.439 in the top fifteen. I just have guys better. If 0:19:31.480 --> 0:19:35.520 he's selected, though, this guy is a really good football player, 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:38.639 But like I said, have others above him right now? 0:19:39.200 --> 0:19:43.119 Yeah, I'm going to go with a defensive tackle, Walter 0:19:43.240 --> 0:19:46.600 Nolan out of Ole Miss. This is a guy that's 0:19:46.600 --> 0:19:48.920 gotten a lot of first round love and has even 0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:51.160 been one of the five hundred and thirty seven names 0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:53.960 thrown around for potentials for the Cowboys to pick at twelve. 0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:57.560 I have a third round grandt on Walter Nolan. 0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:01.560 I don't think there's a lot of motor and Walter 0:20:01.680 --> 0:20:05.399 Nolan now that he does have lower body strength and 0:20:05.520 --> 0:20:08.760 that translates into explosiveness off the line, and he's got 0:20:08.800 --> 0:20:10.960 the ability to create leverage. I mean, this is still 0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:14.640 a good player. He's a shore tackler. He combines athleticism 0:20:14.800 --> 0:20:18.120 with some upper body strength to be a shore tackler. 0:20:18.240 --> 0:20:21.199 But he kind of sputtered out of the gates at 0:20:21.200 --> 0:20:23.479 Texas A and M as a number one overall recruit. 0:20:23.800 --> 0:20:26.119 There's questions from his time in college station does this 0:20:26.200 --> 0:20:29.320 guy love football? He doesn't get rave character reviews all 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:30.680 the way back to his high school days. 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:34.200 He's been to six different schools in the last eight years. 0:20:34.320 --> 0:20:36.400 Going all the way back to his high school days 0:20:36.440 --> 0:20:39.320 and even middle school days too, So I don't know. 0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:41.440 I just think there are better defensive tackles in this class. 0:20:41.480 --> 0:20:43.600 He's my DT seven. I have a third round grade 0:20:43.640 --> 0:20:45.560 on him, and actually have him behind some guys in 0:20:45.680 --> 0:20:48.320 the third round, So that's probably one. 0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:50.760 Well, let's switch the question and change it up a 0:20:50.800 --> 0:20:54.200 little bit. What's the sneaky Day two or Day three 0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:59.440 name that Cowboys fans should know about them? Potentially not 0:20:59.520 --> 0:21:02.000 many people are talking about, but you guys have grated 0:21:02.080 --> 0:21:03.200 them a little higher. 0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:08.840 Man putting us on the spot here, you think. 0:21:09.080 --> 0:21:11.920 Would you would you look at the running backs? I 0:21:12.040 --> 0:21:15.040 know we've talked about a lot of different running backs, 0:21:15.600 --> 0:21:18.840 but the name that keeps popping up, and he's a 0:21:18.920 --> 0:21:22.240 really good player, is our running back from Virginia Tech. 0:21:22.560 --> 0:21:25.520 Absolutely to a lot of people have talked about Touton. 0:21:25.359 --> 0:21:27.760 Yeah, but but have they talked about him Dave? 0:21:27.880 --> 0:21:30.080 I think we've talked about him more as a third 0:21:30.200 --> 0:21:33.240 round guy, but there seems to be some buzz about 0:21:33.320 --> 0:21:34.720 him being a second round guy. 0:21:34.880 --> 0:21:35.160 Gotcha? 0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:37.800 That that that to me? Like I said, I I 0:21:37.880 --> 0:21:38.560 would see. 0:21:38.440 --> 0:21:41.359 Him more as a third I yesterday again in our 0:21:41.440 --> 0:21:44.359 mock draft for the draft show, I picked Henderson. Now, 0:21:44.840 --> 0:21:47.240 do I think Henderson's going to be there? Probably not, 0:21:48.160 --> 0:21:49.680 But you know, I'm going to take a chance that 0:21:49.840 --> 0:21:51.960 maybe that he gets through to you at forty four. 0:21:52.800 --> 0:21:55.000 That would I would absolutely love, But I think when 0:21:55.040 --> 0:21:58.720 you start that there's been other names that we've talked about, 0:21:58.760 --> 0:22:01.080 and the Cowboys brought him in then for a thirty visit, 0:22:01.320 --> 0:22:03.920 and you know, this is to get to know this guy. 0:22:05.200 --> 0:22:07.600 On my book, he's kind of in that that slotted 0:22:07.680 --> 0:22:10.440 with Sampson from Tennessee and guys like that is a 0:22:10.520 --> 0:22:13.920 third round guy. Could he get taken at forty four? 0:22:14.240 --> 0:22:18.080 Absolutely that you know that that's again that might be 0:22:18.160 --> 0:22:20.000 guy I have a little bit lower on my board, 0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:24.320 but I could see the Cowboys absolutely taking him at 0:22:24.359 --> 0:22:26.680 a guy a lot maybe around earlier than what I 0:22:26.680 --> 0:22:27.320 would take him. 0:22:29.440 --> 0:22:31.080 Again, you're kind of putting me on the spot here. 0:22:31.240 --> 0:22:34.440 I'm gonna go with Now you're all right, I'm gonna 0:22:34.440 --> 0:22:37.800 go with Fidel Diggs. Ed Drusher out of Syracuse six 0:22:37.960 --> 0:22:41.160 four two fifty seven originally began his career at Texas 0:22:41.200 --> 0:22:43.439 A and M. He's a versatile guy. He's He's played 0:22:43.560 --> 0:22:47.159 up and down the line. He's even played some snaps 0:22:47.200 --> 0:22:49.160 in the box too. He played almost twenty five percent 0:22:49.200 --> 0:22:51.719 of his snaps off the ball last year. He can 0:22:51.760 --> 0:22:53.800 do a lot of different things for a defense. He's 0:22:53.840 --> 0:22:56.480 a defensive chess piece. I have a late third round 0:22:56.520 --> 0:22:59.160 grade on him. I think this will be a guy 0:22:59.200 --> 0:23:03.280 that's available on Day three and it could certainly make 0:23:03.359 --> 0:23:06.159 sense for a team like this that is definitely hunting 0:23:06.240 --> 0:23:08.879 down a bigger set type of edge. And if they 0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:10.400 don't get that guy in the first couple of days, 0:23:10.400 --> 0:23:12.040 I think Fidel Digs makes a lot of sense if 0:23:12.040 --> 0:23:12.760 he's there in the fifth. 0:23:13.600 --> 0:23:15.320 And I know, when you guys are looking at the 0:23:15.440 --> 0:23:18.160 draft for so long or looking at all these college 0:23:18.800 --> 0:23:22.960 players and prospects, sometimes you end up falling in love 0:23:23.040 --> 0:23:25.840 with somebody, with a player that you really really like. 0:23:25.960 --> 0:23:29.040 And it doesn't necessarily mean a first round grade. It's 0:23:29.080 --> 0:23:31.720 somebody that you just see a lot of potential. And 0:23:31.800 --> 0:23:33.760 I was trying to google the word, but is it? 0:23:34.160 --> 0:23:36.320 Is it pet cat or Okay? 0:23:36.800 --> 0:23:39.840 I could not two words, but yes, you're right, pet cat, 0:23:39.960 --> 0:23:40.400 pet cat? 0:23:40.520 --> 0:23:42.480 Two words? Okay. I was cooling. 0:23:42.640 --> 0:23:45.680 It was started showing MRIs and cat scans. I'm like, 0:23:45.760 --> 0:23:49.240 what is going on? But who would you say? Who's 0:23:49.280 --> 0:23:52.080 the name the guy that would be your pet cat. 0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:53.240 For this year? 0:23:53.400 --> 0:23:54.080 In this draft? 0:23:54.240 --> 0:23:57.399 Oh man, I feel like I feel like this is 0:23:57.400 --> 0:23:59.000 the second year in a row that I've had a 0:23:59.119 --> 0:24:00.920 running back as my cat and I know we just 0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:04.280 brought him up Big schol Tooton out of Virginia Tech. 0:24:04.359 --> 0:24:05.960 I mean, he's He's been a guy that I've ridden 0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:10.200 with throughout this draft process, and I know I've I've 0:24:10.240 --> 0:24:13.240 mentioned quite a few running backs that I love, but 0:24:13.400 --> 0:24:16.159 He's He's certainly one I think I would take. And 0:24:16.560 --> 0:24:18.120 I'll just give you another one on the other side 0:24:18.119 --> 0:24:20.400 of the ball, just for twots and giggles, if you will, 0:24:20.440 --> 0:24:25.520 to see what I did there. I like Riley Mills, 0:24:25.560 --> 0:24:29.160 defensive tackle out of Notre Dame. Not necessarily for this team, 0:24:29.280 --> 0:24:32.280 but just in general. He's a three tech that played 0:24:32.320 --> 0:24:34.399 for Notre Dame last year. He got hurt towards the 0:24:34.440 --> 0:24:35.800 end of the season, so you didn't see him in 0:24:35.800 --> 0:24:39.360 the College Football Playoff, which is unfortunate. But he has 0:24:39.400 --> 0:24:42.360 three tech five tech versatility. I think he has rare 0:24:42.440 --> 0:24:45.920 strength at six five two ninety six. He's athletic. His 0:24:46.040 --> 0:24:48.760 pass rush begins with his hands and he gets into 0:24:48.800 --> 0:24:51.040 the backfield. Had seven and a half sacks in twelve 0:24:51.080 --> 0:24:53.680 games last year. Coming out of the defensive interior. There's 0:24:53.800 --> 0:24:56.000 a lot of pass rush upside. There are teams that 0:24:56.119 --> 0:24:59.639 look for these pass rushing interior defenders that can create 0:24:59.760 --> 0:25:02.760 some trouble from the interior to open up their edge 0:25:02.840 --> 0:25:05.000 rush guys. I think Riley Mills would be that type 0:25:05.040 --> 0:25:07.280 of talent. He's he's been a guy that I've really 0:25:07.320 --> 0:25:08.800 fallen in love with over the course of the last 0:25:08.880 --> 0:25:09.240 month or so. 0:25:09.480 --> 0:25:13.440 Yeah, I think my guy would be Carson Swezinger from UCLA, 0:25:14.000 --> 0:25:17.600 the linebacker. I absolutely love the way that he plays. 0:25:18.000 --> 0:25:21.240 You know, you're you're watching this guy and he was, 0:25:21.440 --> 0:25:23.760 you know, in two hundred and twenty pound range. He's 0:25:23.840 --> 0:25:25.760 bulked up a little bit to two forty two at 0:25:25.800 --> 0:25:28.879 the combine, but he's he's kind of a throwback in 0:25:28.920 --> 0:25:31.200 the way he plays. I mean he doesn't he didn't 0:25:31.200 --> 0:25:32.920 at the time when you're watching the tape. He didn't 0:25:32.960 --> 0:25:36.840 have really true bulk. His instincts, his toughness as a 0:25:36.920 --> 0:25:40.200 run defender is really really good. He could play down hill, 0:25:40.480 --> 0:25:45.119 he tackles well, you know, and you watch him play, 0:25:45.400 --> 0:25:48.760 he can play and coverage, he could blitz. There's some 0:25:49.000 --> 0:25:53.159 complete elements to his game as a linebacker. And you know, 0:25:53.280 --> 0:25:57.320 maybe the Cowboys were a year or a draft early 0:25:57.640 --> 0:26:01.800 with with taking you know, taking their Notre Dame linebacker 0:26:01.920 --> 0:26:03.240 last year, I think this would have been a guy 0:26:03.280 --> 0:26:06.680 that new look at Carson Sweazer term. For me, I 0:26:06.800 --> 0:26:08.760 fell in love with the game. I couldn't believe a 0:26:08.840 --> 0:26:11.119 guy that was playing at two hundred and twenty pounds 0:26:11.520 --> 0:26:15.680 played with the physicality and the instincts and the downhill. 0:26:15.560 --> 0:26:17.080 Ability that this kid had. 0:26:17.119 --> 0:26:20.280 He went from like being a guy that not maybe 0:26:20.320 --> 0:26:22.280 not many were talking about, maybe a third round guy. 0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:25.280 He's going to probably get taken in the second round early. 0:26:25.400 --> 0:26:27.280 But just because of the things that I talked about, 0:26:27.280 --> 0:26:27.919 the traits, I. 0:26:27.960 --> 0:26:29.560 Got to throw another one out there. This is probably 0:26:30.000 --> 0:26:32.359 outside of the top twenty. This is probably my favorite 0:26:32.359 --> 0:26:38.800 player in the class. Is Maxwell Harrison Corner out of Kentucky. Yeah, speed, acceleration, physicality, 0:26:38.960 --> 0:26:43.280 ballhawk ability, it's all there. He's got a slender build, 0:26:43.320 --> 0:26:45.879 but he's a solid tackler, and I think there's more 0:26:45.920 --> 0:26:47.960 room to fill out his frame with that center build. 0:26:48.240 --> 0:26:50.960 Slender build, but he can still play the run effectively 0:26:51.000 --> 0:26:53.840 as well. He's a guy that I think if he 0:26:53.960 --> 0:26:56.120 slipped to forty four, it'd be tough for this team 0:26:56.160 --> 0:26:57.920 to pass on. I don't see it happening, but man, 0:26:58.000 --> 0:27:00.640 this is a really talented player. I think is gonna 0:27:00.640 --> 0:27:01.159 start Day one. 0:27:01.200 --> 0:27:03.240 Wherever you land, he's they're talking about him now like 0:27:03.320 --> 0:27:05.560 as a first round guy, like the back end in 0:27:05.560 --> 0:27:07.680 the fact of the first round. Amber, I know you 0:27:07.760 --> 0:27:10.440 probably have another question if Nick's gonna if Nick's gonna 0:27:10.440 --> 0:27:14.200 throw throw more guys in there. Uh le Quintin Allen 0:27:14.320 --> 0:27:17.280 from Syracuse. And if you watch him play, there's some 0:27:17.560 --> 0:27:20.000 violence to his game. He's a he's a running back 0:27:20.040 --> 0:27:23.320 that when he takes that the handoff, he is going 0:27:23.760 --> 0:27:26.520 north south in a hurry. And he is a guy 0:27:26.600 --> 0:27:29.440 that when I always say this about a runner and 0:27:29.480 --> 0:27:32.080 it's gonna he does not really make anybody miss. He 0:27:32.240 --> 0:27:35.040 is going to run until he hears glass break. That's 0:27:35.119 --> 0:27:38.200 how he just his style is he's just just kind 0:27:38.240 --> 0:27:40.720 of just gonna run into people, run over people, bounce 0:27:40.760 --> 0:27:45.040 off people. He's super tough. He doesn't he doesn't, you know, 0:27:45.320 --> 0:27:47.200 with all the carries. 0:27:46.880 --> 0:27:47.960 And that he has. 0:27:48.520 --> 0:27:50.720 You know, they say, well, he's put the ball on 0:27:50.760 --> 0:27:52.320 the ground a little bit, but all of it has 0:27:52.400 --> 0:27:55.040 been really because of second and third contact with him, 0:27:55.359 --> 0:27:57.720 He's always fighting for extra yards. He's tough around the 0:27:57.760 --> 0:28:01.120 goal line, and he catches the ball really really well. 0:28:01.520 --> 0:28:04.040 So here's a guy that kind of like Smith from 0:28:04.160 --> 0:28:07.439 SCMU at running back who is a converted wide receiver 0:28:07.560 --> 0:28:09.800 to running back. You're looking for these running backs that 0:28:09.920 --> 0:28:12.200 have the ability to catch the football. Really kind of 0:28:12.280 --> 0:28:14.880 the opposite of what Tooton, who we talked about earlier though, 0:28:15.160 --> 0:28:18.600 Virginia Tech's offense really not getting the running back into 0:28:18.680 --> 0:28:22.119 the passing game like say the SMU and then Syracuse. 0:28:22.240 --> 0:28:29.040 But my man, he is a tough, tough, tough guy. 0:28:29.880 --> 0:28:32.119 Let's go ahead and go to our final break. When 0:28:32.200 --> 0:28:33.960 we come back, I have a bunch of fill in 0:28:34.040 --> 0:28:37.760 the blank questions for you guys relating the draft after 0:28:37.920 --> 0:28:38.360 this break. 0:28:40.960 --> 0:28:42.960 If you can't be at the stadium, there's no better 0:28:43.000 --> 0:28:45.360 way to watch your Cowboys then on an lg O 0:28:45.560 --> 0:28:48.560 led evil TV.

It's so spiritual. 0:31:22.000 --> 0:31:24.760 Okay, let's get right into it. Fill in the blank 0:31:24.960 --> 0:31:29.720 type of questions. If Dallas doesn't draft A or N 0:31:30.480 --> 0:31:32.959 by day two, we've got a problem. 0:31:33.560 --> 0:31:35.400 Corner corner is it for me? 0:31:35.960 --> 0:31:39.800 It would This team has a very glaring red light 0:31:39.840 --> 0:31:42.520 at corner I think, bigger than any other position. They 0:31:42.600 --> 0:31:45.000 only have one starter that's ready to go to start 0:31:45.040 --> 0:31:46.720 the year. I mean, there's confidence in this building about 0:31:46.760 --> 0:31:49.240 kaye Elam, but kyer Elam also hasn't touched the field 0:31:49.240 --> 0:31:50.080 for this team yet, so. 0:31:51.680 --> 0:31:53.240 They got to get a corner on the first two days. 0:31:53.400 --> 0:31:57.040 About one technique looking at that at all. 0:31:57.200 --> 0:32:01.000 More than a receiver, I understand where you're coming from. 0:32:01.080 --> 0:32:04.000 Yeah, to me, there's there's two positions. I really think. 0:32:04.320 --> 0:32:06.160 I think they probably feel like that they could play 0:32:06.240 --> 0:32:09.640 with the receivers they have, But me personally, I would 0:32:09.640 --> 0:32:12.720 think runner. I mean, I know this running back group 0:32:12.840 --> 0:32:14.960 is deep, but I'm trying to get I'm trying to 0:32:15.040 --> 0:32:17.080 get that to me, what I on my board would 0:32:17.080 --> 0:32:18.680 be the upper echelon type of backs. 0:32:18.720 --> 0:32:20.280 I think there's some good backs. 0:32:20.600 --> 0:32:22.880 But I think there's three positions you could look at 0:32:23.000 --> 0:32:25.880 and say, you know, Nick's right about the corner, but 0:32:26.520 --> 0:32:30.520 the one technique running back and corner would be you know, 0:32:30.640 --> 0:32:33.240 I think that would be the the three that I 0:32:33.280 --> 0:32:36.080 would look at. But for sure that that that one 0:32:36.200 --> 0:32:38.960 technique is is kind of a scary thing right now. 0:32:39.240 --> 0:32:42.760 One caveat in this whole ordeal, especially when you factor 0:32:42.840 --> 0:32:45.080 in the glaring needs going into the first two days, 0:32:45.760 --> 0:32:47.800 is that all of our boards just kind of got 0:32:47.880 --> 0:32:50.040 blown up yesterday when Jerry said that they were working 0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:53.880 on two substantive trades, because that that could factor in 0:32:53.960 --> 0:32:56.680 at any position. And if they go into day three, 0:32:56.840 --> 0:33:00.240 say without a receiver, without a corner, you know, who's 0:33:00.240 --> 0:33:02.200 to say that they aren't working on something to fill 0:33:02.280 --> 0:33:04.880 that need on the back end. I'm not confident that 0:33:04.960 --> 0:33:06.520 it would be for more than like a fifth or 0:33:06.600 --> 0:33:08.920 sixth round pick, and it would be another kayr Elam 0:33:09.000 --> 0:33:11.840 type of addition, but maybe just kind of rational. 0:33:13.400 --> 0:33:14.720 Yeah, that's not substantial. 0:33:14.800 --> 0:33:17.640 I mean, giving giving up a giving up a day, 0:33:18.200 --> 0:33:21.280 a Day two pick that that would be substantial. 0:33:21.480 --> 0:33:23.719 Yeah, yeah, all right. 0:33:23.800 --> 0:33:26.840 The position that will define this draft class for the 0:33:26.960 --> 0:33:27.880 Cowboys is. 0:33:29.600 --> 0:33:33.640 The position probably probably the running back. 0:33:33.920 --> 0:33:36.920 Yeah, you can make up case for the receiver, especially 0:33:36.960 --> 0:33:39.280 if that receiver gets taken in the first round. But 0:33:39.880 --> 0:33:42.440 if you know, based on what Brian Schottenheimer said in 0:33:42.480 --> 0:33:44.320 Florida about the identity of this team, he wants to 0:33:44.360 --> 0:33:46.880 be physical, he wants to run the football. The additions 0:33:46.920 --> 0:33:48.960 that they've made on the offensive side of the ball 0:33:49.080 --> 0:33:51.800 to help run the football. Uh, this running back that 0:33:51.920 --> 0:33:55.640 gets drafted to this team, whether it be first, second, third, fourth, fifth, whatever, 0:33:56.920 --> 0:33:58.680 he is going to be a future part of this offense. 0:33:58.880 --> 0:34:01.600 And uh, it's it's like Ezekiel Elliott in twenty sixteen. 0:34:01.600 --> 0:34:03.480 I know he was the fourth overall pick. It's much different. 0:34:03.520 --> 0:34:06.400 But even in a draft class with Dak Prescott, he 0:34:06.480 --> 0:34:09.200 was the identity of that draft class. And you know 0:34:09.280 --> 0:34:11.520 it's going to it's going to be a similar type 0:34:11.520 --> 0:34:13.040 field this year. There's gonna be a lot of eyes 0:34:13.120 --> 0:34:14.840 on whoever that running back is that comes in. 0:34:15.440 --> 0:34:18.440 Cowboy's got a real big dose of reality last year 0:34:18.520 --> 0:34:21.520 when they not went the running backs that they went against. 0:34:21.960 --> 0:34:24.120 When you talk about Henry and then you talk about 0:34:24.160 --> 0:34:27.359 Saquon Barkley, and Jerry even mentioned that that opened their 0:34:27.440 --> 0:34:29.960 eyes to what they need. So I think Nick's absolutely right. 0:34:30.040 --> 0:34:32.600 I think the running back here could very well define, 0:34:32.800 --> 0:34:35.120 you know, how this offense is going to be going forward. 0:34:36.200 --> 0:34:42.360 If we draft Blank, Cowboys, Twitter or X will melt. 0:34:42.200 --> 0:34:49.640 Down Johnson because of Brian No, it's I think, gosh, 0:34:49.920 --> 0:34:51.879 I think there's a lot of actually, there's a lot 0:34:51.920 --> 0:34:55.200 of possibilities here interior offensive line. 0:34:55.320 --> 0:34:57.200 I think Tyler Booker would melt this thing down. 0:34:57.280 --> 0:34:59.200 Yeah, I think if they took an interior offensive line 0:34:59.200 --> 0:35:00.880 and it would melt down on the planet. 0:35:00.960 --> 0:35:03.360 But even Tyler Booker, it would not be a bad pick. No, 0:35:03.520 --> 0:35:04.719 it's not meltdown worthy. 0:35:04.880 --> 0:35:05.080 Yeah. 0:35:05.120 --> 0:35:08.440 And to me though, it's you know, the thing of it, 0:35:08.640 --> 0:35:11.279 and like the thing you talked about with the Will 0:35:11.400 --> 0:35:13.560 Johnson stuff, you know, there's just a lot of questions 0:35:13.600 --> 0:35:16.080 about Will Johnson. You know, there's a lot of there's 0:35:16.080 --> 0:35:17.560 a lot of questions. I mean, I think we got 0:35:17.600 --> 0:35:20.520 some information about, you know, the injury history, and I 0:35:20.600 --> 0:35:22.400 think there's some teams around the league that I know 0:35:22.520 --> 0:35:24.960 I've talked to that are concerned about his injury history. 0:35:25.520 --> 0:35:27.560 But they see these players a lot different. They don't 0:35:27.600 --> 0:35:29.839 give a damn what Nick and I think. They really 0:35:29.920 --> 0:35:32.880 don't and so don't get mad at you know, if 0:35:33.120 --> 0:35:35.360 all of a sudden they take somebody that's you know, 0:35:35.520 --> 0:35:38.160 that we haven't talked about or we like, they don't care. 0:35:38.719 --> 0:35:42.000 So I'm not a I'm I've said this a thousand times. 0:35:42.080 --> 0:35:44.439 I'm a I like Will Johnson. I just have three 0:35:44.920 --> 0:35:46.799 cornerbacks above him that I like better. 0:35:47.160 --> 0:35:47.719 That's just me. 0:35:48.040 --> 0:35:50.680 That's that's my job. And so you know, if you 0:35:50.760 --> 0:35:53.600 want to melt down because it's something I said, well 0:35:53.640 --> 0:35:57.120 then you know that's on you. Yeah, exactly, don't know. 0:35:57.480 --> 0:35:59.600 You know, Will Johnson would be a fine player here. 0:36:00.040 --> 0:36:03.160 He absolutely would fit a need that they have. Cornerback 0:36:03.280 --> 0:36:06.320 is Nick's talked about is something that they have a 0:36:06.400 --> 0:36:07.719 lot of questions about right now. 0:36:08.560 --> 0:36:12.239 I think this team is star art not this team. 0:36:12.320 --> 0:36:15.719 This fan base is starved for a sexy first round pick. 0:36:16.360 --> 0:36:18.319 The last three have been in the trenches. It's been 0:36:18.360 --> 0:36:22.560 Tyler Smith and Monzie Smith and then Tyler Geiden this 0:36:22.760 --> 0:36:25.680 last year. I think this team is also again fan 0:36:25.719 --> 0:36:28.000 base is also just starved to have a flashy guy 0:36:28.080 --> 0:36:30.160 that they can look at at training camp and have 0:36:30.280 --> 0:36:34.960 some fun with selfishly training camp content purposes. Wise, I 0:36:35.000 --> 0:36:37.399 would love a sexy pick as well, because last year 0:36:37.560 --> 0:36:40.360 was very bad from a training camp content perspective. The 0:36:40.440 --> 0:36:42.400 first round pick was half hurt of the half of 0:36:42.480 --> 0:36:45.239 the camp as Ceedee Lamb was not present the entire time. 0:36:45.600 --> 0:36:47.560 It was bad for us going into like week two. 0:36:49.040 --> 0:36:51.600 Well, history has shown when we looked at all the 0:36:51.719 --> 0:36:54.359 drafts that the Cowys have had and correct me if 0:36:54.400 --> 0:36:57.919 I'm wrong, but typically in round two, in the second round, 0:36:58.840 --> 0:37:01.680 sometimes it's take risks with players that have kind of 0:37:01.800 --> 0:37:05.440 fallen down, whether because of whatever issue going on with 0:37:05.600 --> 0:37:09.799 them or typically injury wise or recovering from something. Are 0:37:09.840 --> 0:37:12.760 you are the Cowboys, I should say, in a position 0:37:13.160 --> 0:37:16.239 where they are able to take those kinds of risk 0:37:16.440 --> 0:37:21.000 looking more towards development in the future, or you absolutely 0:37:21.120 --> 0:37:23.840 need to make sure that everyone that you're taking is 0:37:23.960 --> 0:37:27.560 for someone that is able to make an impact, an 0:37:27.640 --> 0:37:29.319 immediate impact this year. 0:37:30.080 --> 0:37:32.360 Yeah, it's a fascinating question because I think if you 0:37:32.480 --> 0:37:34.919 look back on the last two picks that they've made 0:37:34.960 --> 0:37:37.719 in the first round Mozzie Smith, Tyler Guiden, I think 0:37:37.880 --> 0:37:39.680 either of us could have told you on draft night 0:37:39.840 --> 0:37:42.800 and probably did, is that, Hey, this is going to 0:37:42.840 --> 0:37:45.000 take some time. This is going to be some marinating 0:37:46.080 --> 0:37:49.680 and we've seen the you know struggles of those marinations, 0:37:49.719 --> 0:37:51.200 I guess over the course of the last two years 0:37:51.200 --> 0:37:53.080 with those two picks. And you know, those guys still 0:37:53.120 --> 0:37:54.920 have some time. But it's they have not played to 0:37:54.960 --> 0:37:57.719 the lovel a first round pick yet. And I know 0:37:57.800 --> 0:38:00.000 you were talking more so about you know, other rounds 0:38:00.160 --> 0:38:03.000 as well, but this team needs impact starters. They need 0:38:03.040 --> 0:38:07.080 an impact starter at receiver, running back, corner. I think 0:38:07.120 --> 0:38:10.440 they needed at one tech as well. Yeah, and I 0:38:10.520 --> 0:38:15.000 don't I understand the idea of draft and develop, and 0:38:15.280 --> 0:38:17.080 this team could certainly do it with a with a 0:38:17.600 --> 0:38:19.360 with a guy that doesn't have a lot of experience, 0:38:19.440 --> 0:38:22.320 but I think you should be hunting the experience in 0:38:22.400 --> 0:38:22.759 this class. 0:38:23.719 --> 0:38:27.759 Yeah, you know, to me, the possibility where they could 0:38:28.080 --> 0:38:30.319 maybe do some good and Nick correct me if I'm wrong. 0:38:30.719 --> 0:38:35.200 We mentioned corner, you know, could they could revel from 0:38:36.120 --> 0:38:40.239 from East Carolina? Could morson both first round guys on 0:38:40.360 --> 0:38:43.560 a lot of people's boards. Could they end up at 0:38:43.640 --> 0:38:46.520 forty four? Could they be those impact type players? Could 0:38:46.600 --> 0:38:49.759 you get a starter at forty four at corner, a 0:38:49.880 --> 0:38:51.640 guy that in my opinion, like I say, I know 0:38:51.800 --> 0:38:54.000 Morson probably not a first round great on your board, 0:38:54.040 --> 0:38:56.560 but on my board he is. But could they get 0:38:56.800 --> 0:39:01.000 a first round talent at corner because of having to 0:39:01.080 --> 0:39:03.160 deal with an injury or something like that. 0:39:03.680 --> 0:39:06.320 Yeah, and that's certainly a possibility. Revel would be a 0:39:06.400 --> 0:39:09.680 fun one and when he gets fully healthy, it'll be 0:39:09.719 --> 0:39:12.200 an impact player on this team. But you would have 0:39:12.360 --> 0:39:16.560 the same issue you had today if you did draft Revel, 0:39:16.640 --> 0:39:18.680 is the fact that you don't have three starting corners 0:39:18.719 --> 0:39:20.960 ready to go to start the season. You would almost 0:39:21.160 --> 0:39:23.440 certainly have to double divot corner later in the draft 0:39:24.080 --> 0:39:27.400 just to have another body there. But I think for 0:39:27.520 --> 0:39:30.080 the long term, a Revel guy could certainly work, and 0:39:30.239 --> 0:39:32.880 not only off the injury, but one year of starting 0:39:32.960 --> 0:39:35.480 experience in the American Athletic Conference, there's going to be 0:39:35.520 --> 0:39:36.680 a jumping competition for him. 0:39:36.840 --> 0:39:38.800 There's going to be some development there. But the upside 0:39:38.840 --> 0:39:40.360 is super super large. 0:39:41.520 --> 0:39:42.680 Well, as we begin to. 0:39:42.719 --> 0:39:46.279 Wrap up this conversation, we can always talk about what 0:39:46.560 --> 0:39:48.840 we prefer and what you guys like and all that, 0:39:49.320 --> 0:39:52.680 but looking at the through the lens of the Dallas 0:39:52.800 --> 0:39:56.840 Cowboys and what they typically do. What is the most 0:39:56.960 --> 0:40:03.239 Cowboys type pick in this draft? In what sense as 0:40:03.280 --> 0:40:06.160 far as player wise, what. 0:40:06.280 --> 0:40:09.080 Player bet fits the bill for how they usually draft? 0:40:09.320 --> 0:40:13.719 Yes, because usually they. 0:40:15.440 --> 0:40:17.200 You know what I think, I'm confused by the question. 0:40:18.440 --> 0:40:20.319 You always have you always have your pick, your guy 0:40:20.360 --> 0:40:23.080 that you like, but it's like it doesn't necessarily align 0:40:23.360 --> 0:40:26.400 with what the Cowboys would do necessarily. So that's what 0:40:26.440 --> 0:40:28.600 I'm saying. It's like, aside from your picks, you guys 0:40:28.680 --> 0:40:33.360 have given me guys that you like headed into this draft, 0:40:33.560 --> 0:40:36.120 but when you look at from their perspective and what 0:40:36.200 --> 0:40:39.360 they typically do, what is looking through their lens the 0:40:39.440 --> 0:40:43.160 type of player that they would be more tours picking. 0:40:43.960 --> 0:40:45.759 You know, it's funny because this is a guy that 0:40:45.800 --> 0:40:47.239 I think has been thrown around quite a bit, and 0:40:47.320 --> 0:40:49.440 you think about the success that the Cowboys have had 0:40:49.520 --> 0:40:52.239 in the first round on the offensive line. Yeah, over 0:40:52.239 --> 0:40:53.919 the course of the year, Josh Simmons kind of feels 0:40:53.920 --> 0:40:54.839 like a Cowboys type pick. 0:40:55.000 --> 0:40:57.440 I was, That's exactly who I was going to say. 0:40:57.480 --> 0:40:58.680 I was going to see if you were going to 0:40:58.719 --> 0:41:01.520 do it. But yeah, Josh Simmons from Ohio State, Uh, 0:41:01.719 --> 0:41:04.480 this is my favorite offensive lineman in the draft. I 0:41:04.520 --> 0:41:07.680 mean I have him as if you look at again 0:41:07.719 --> 0:41:09.880 at my stack, which is it's important to me. The 0:41:09.960 --> 0:41:13.319 Cowboys can care less about how I see these guys. 0:41:13.400 --> 0:41:15.080 But you know when you when you start to talk 0:41:15.120 --> 0:41:17.400 about this player, and I'll tell you I I'm in 0:41:17.440 --> 0:41:21.480 the top five when it comes to my uh my stack. 0:41:21.640 --> 0:41:24.200 So I think that much of this player and that 0:41:24.239 --> 0:41:25.239 would be a guide. 0:41:25.000 --> 0:41:26.399 To me that you know he has. 0:41:26.520 --> 0:41:29.440 Yeah, he's coming off the patella. Okay, so you know 0:41:29.480 --> 0:41:31.360 we're talking about that whole thing with the knee. But 0:41:31.440 --> 0:41:33.920 you watch this guy play. There's a lot of questions 0:41:33.960 --> 0:41:35.680 about these offensive tackles. 0:41:35.880 --> 0:41:36.920 There's a lot of there's. 0:41:36.800 --> 0:41:40.440 Questions about Will Campbell Memboo, you know guys like that. 0:41:40.640 --> 0:41:44.399 There's questions about with Banks at Texas. To me, when 0:41:44.440 --> 0:41:46.439 you watch this guy play, if he did not get hurt, 0:41:46.440 --> 0:41:48.600 he'd be the first tackle taking off the board. We 0:41:48.800 --> 0:41:51.239 all these other guys at Campbell's and all, but you 0:41:51.440 --> 0:41:54.480 this this that would be very much a not not 0:41:54.640 --> 0:41:57.160 a pick that everybody's kind of worried about him maybe 0:41:57.320 --> 0:42:00.480 being healthy enough. But that's the kind of that that 0:42:00.600 --> 0:42:02.600 they look at, Well, maybe the guy's a little banged up, 0:42:02.719 --> 0:42:05.279 but here's the value this guy. You could hit on 0:42:05.400 --> 0:42:07.880 this with this player. But yeah, Josh Simmons would be 0:42:07.920 --> 0:42:08.400 that guy for me. 0:42:08.640 --> 0:42:10.680 I tell you, if this team did draft for Josh 0:42:10.719 --> 0:42:12.680 Simmons in the first round, there would be such a 0:42:12.760 --> 0:42:15.080 fascinating discussion to be had in that Thursday night press 0:42:15.080 --> 0:42:18.200 conference with Jerry Stephen and Will McClay and Brian Schottenneimer. 0:42:18.440 --> 0:42:20.279 It's like, what the hell are you gonna do with him? 0:42:20.320 --> 0:42:22.759 Because you have your left tackle that you drafted the. 0:42:22.760 --> 0:42:24.600 First claim it left tackle. I don't have your right 0:42:28.120 --> 0:42:28.920 I did not have time. 0:42:30.080 --> 0:42:32.000 It would they would basically have to say, hey, we're 0:42:32.000 --> 0:42:33.520 gonna have to give up on one of these tackles. 0:42:33.800 --> 0:42:35.080 I mean they would have to say. 0:42:34.880 --> 0:42:36.600 It, yeah, and you know what, and then you let 0:42:36.719 --> 0:42:37.280 him compete. 0:42:37.520 --> 0:42:40.120 You just move, you move, geton over to right tackle, 0:42:40.160 --> 0:42:42.759 and he competes with steel and then away you go. 0:42:43.280 --> 0:42:45.759 And if he's good enough to compete and he's able, 0:42:45.840 --> 0:42:48.839 he's one of maybe he wins the job, or maybe 0:42:48.880 --> 0:42:50.640 it gives you the flexibility where all of a sudden 0:42:50.680 --> 0:42:53.440 he comes with the attitude like Okay, I'm not gonna 0:42:53.480 --> 0:42:55.879 be I'm gonna work hard, I'm gonna do things. 0:42:55.920 --> 0:42:57.560 I'm gonna do what they asked me to do. I'm 0:42:57.560 --> 0:42:58.120 gonna be ready. 0:42:58.120 --> 0:43:00.160 I'm gonna you know, all the experiences that I ad 0:43:00.520 --> 0:43:02.120 in the past, I'm gonna put behind me and I'm 0:43:02.120 --> 0:43:04.560 gonna go forward. He could be that, or he could 0:43:04.680 --> 0:43:07.520 just kind of just keep the same type of attitude 0:43:07.520 --> 0:43:10.600 that he has right now and then not beat Steel 0:43:10.640 --> 0:43:12.680 out and then he could go on the uh go 0:43:12.840 --> 0:43:15.480 on and be a guy that we never talk about again. 0:43:16.040 --> 0:43:18.760 So to me, I like I said, I there's teams 0:43:18.800 --> 0:43:22.239 that I admire around football that like when when they 0:43:22.360 --> 0:43:24.560 make a pick and it doesn't work, they move on. 0:43:25.000 --> 0:43:27.520 They just do not hold on, They just move you. 0:43:27.719 --> 0:43:29.759 If you were to take Josh, if you were to 0:43:29.800 --> 0:43:32.800 take Josh Simmons, he's your starter at left tackle, and 0:43:32.880 --> 0:43:35.439 don't worry about it. Him and Smith on that left 0:43:35.520 --> 0:43:38.480 side would do just as I think, just as good 0:43:38.520 --> 0:43:42.279 as I like Jackson. Donovan Jackson in this draft from 0:43:42.480 --> 0:43:45.080 from Ohio State, who plays left guard next played left 0:43:45.080 --> 0:43:47.879 guard next to Simmons. There's reasons why when you watch 0:43:47.920 --> 0:43:51.040 Ohio State run the football that these guys are blocking 0:43:51.360 --> 0:43:53.640 and the and that and their running game is successful 0:43:53.840 --> 0:43:56.279 and the protection that Will Howard had to throw the 0:43:56.320 --> 0:43:58.680 football this year because of those two guys over there. 0:43:58.960 --> 0:44:02.120 You could get the same thing with Simmons and Smith 0:44:02.440 --> 0:44:04.560 on that left side for Dak Prescott and just a 0:44:04.600 --> 0:44:05.240 quick sidebar. 0:44:05.640 --> 0:44:08.000 It's it's funny, how how when you mentioned an Ohio 0:44:08.120 --> 0:44:11.560 State guy in this draft? How safe is typically on 0:44:11.640 --> 0:44:13.680 the back side of it. There are so many safe 0:44:13.760 --> 0:44:16.600 players that are wearing that Buckeye helmet from year. You 0:44:16.640 --> 0:44:18.640 talk about Josh Simmons, Well, yes, the injury, but I 0:44:18.920 --> 0:44:20.239 from what I know, I think the knee is not 0:44:20.320 --> 0:44:23.400 a concern for team. Josh Simmons, Donovan Jackson, a Mecha Buga, 0:44:23.480 --> 0:44:26.960 Trevon Henderson, j T. Tumolowow, and Quinn Shawn Judkins. I 0:44:26.960 --> 0:44:29.719 would qualify all those guys as safe. And they're all 0:44:29.760 --> 0:44:30.440 from Ohio State. 0:44:30.480 --> 0:44:32.239 There's reason why they won the national champions Do. 0:44:32.280 --> 0:44:32.960 You understand it? 0:44:33.000 --> 0:44:36.040 Whenever you start isolating these guys and seeing how dominant 0:44:36.040 --> 0:44:38.200 that they were last season, it's really impressive. And then 0:44:38.200 --> 0:44:40.040 they also had the best receiver in college football who's 0:44:40.080 --> 0:44:40.880 not draft eligible. 0:44:41.040 --> 0:44:44.680 Yea, our time is up, but super super fast. I 0:44:44.800 --> 0:44:48.279 have one last question because someone sent it in. This 0:44:48.440 --> 0:44:52.360 person was asking looking at this draft, and we typically 0:44:52.520 --> 0:44:55.040 know whether the Cowboys walk out with more defensive players 0:44:55.160 --> 0:44:58.640 or more offensive or kind of a good even balance 0:44:58.760 --> 0:45:02.400 between the two sides of ball. Which side do you 0:45:02.520 --> 0:45:05.359 guys think is going to be the most dominant one 0:45:05.520 --> 0:45:08.640 walking out of the draft, meaning which side is. 0:45:08.680 --> 0:45:09.880 Going to have the most picks? 0:45:10.520 --> 0:45:10.960 Defense? 0:45:11.160 --> 0:45:12.600 Offense, offense. 0:45:12.640 --> 0:45:15.520 I think they addressed in what they did in free agency, 0:45:15.960 --> 0:45:18.520 how they played it with the trades and stuff they made. 0:45:19.040 --> 0:45:21.480 Not to say that they're not going to draft any 0:45:21.560 --> 0:45:23.360 defensive players, but I think they're going to try and 0:45:23.400 --> 0:45:24.799 help their quarterback the best they can. 0:45:25.040 --> 0:45:26.920 I agree, And Schuttenheimer kind of mentioned it in his 0:45:27.080 --> 0:45:28.759 meeting in Florida. He was like, Yeah, if you look 0:45:28.760 --> 0:45:30.120 at our free agent moves, you would think we're a 0:45:30.160 --> 0:45:32.520 defensive minded team. But you think you have a defensive 0:45:32.560 --> 0:45:35.400 head coach. But he said, I'm going to get some 0:45:35.440 --> 0:45:36.680 help for this offensive side of the ball. I think 0:45:36.719 --> 0:45:38.200 it's the offense as well well. 0:45:38.239 --> 0:45:40.920 Tomorrow is the star of the NFL Draft, the Stars 0:45:40.960 --> 0:45:45.600 at seven Central time, and we also have the Draft 0:45:45.840 --> 0:45:49.120 show that's going to go on all through the draft. Obviously, 0:45:49.360 --> 0:45:52.800 but you guys start at what time? Six o'clock, six o'clock. 0:45:53.040 --> 0:45:54.880 Both of you are going to be there? Are you 0:45:54.960 --> 0:45:55.520 on the draft? 0:45:56.000 --> 0:45:58.080 Kind of in eirteen hours. 0:45:59.160 --> 0:46:02.080 I don't know how you guys do it, but tune 0:46:02.120 --> 0:46:05.080 in on dallascowboys dot com.
