2:21
Come on. Yeah. Come on. Ain't no party like a cowboy party
2:28
All right. So yesterday we were hearing news of the Cowboys intrigue with offensive line, right
2:36
And some offensive linemen are, you know, needed in these particular straights
2:42
We need offensive linemen, right? But at the end of the day, we also �
2:48
Ooh, look at all them laws over there, boy. I tell you, boy. Come on, baby
2:54
Boy, I don't worry for a second. I don't worry for a second, right? You know what I'm saying
2:58
Spartans, prepare for glory. Oh, man, I thought y'all was going to be like two guys talking about business
3:05
that didn't happen on the YouTube, you know. I thought that y'all was two guys that was talking, you know, like ladies
3:12
But I see that y'all are not two guys, you know. Boy, I'm telling y'all, y'all are some real ones
3:18
I don't know about the other guys over there. They need some testosterone. And come on with it, boy
3:23
I thought we were talking football. Yes, indeed. We talking football. Boy, look at all them laws up here
3:32
Audio is low, low. Yeah, 5, 4, 3, 2. Let me know if my audio is better now
3:38

3:57
Every stream you drop, it's not good, it's great content. You may joke around and laugh with us, but you know your shit
4:04
You even allow me a... Oh, what happened? You know, wait, wait, wait, wait, AI
4:09
She got tired of talking. Hold on. Hold on. Let me do something with this. Hold on

4:38
Who said tulips ain't great? Give me tulips, you know. Put some flowers in the chat, baby
4:43
And this show is brought to you by NJ, the rebel chick
4:48
Come on with it. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Girl, I need the AI to wake up
4:53
AI! AI! Below the heavens. Oh, my goodness, man. That name shouldn't be said around here
5:03
You know, I thought I played Nintendo and Wario, but God, don't
5:08
Shame. Shame. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Shame, shame, shame, shame. But I appreciate you below the heavens
5:19
Uh, this, the audio is straight. It's not too high, not too low. Right. Uh, here, here's my
5:25
thoughts with everything. Cause I know y'all want to talk about that. And I'm trying to get over
5:30
here to talking some real football with my guy to fight talk, you know, because the rumor last
5:38
or yesterday was basically about the offensive line, the Simmons, the Tylers
5:46
And now it's about face. Now everything done changed around. And now, shoot, we're going to be talking to Messiah
5:56
Swallowed up. Have you ever been swallowed up? Have you gone through a time of swallowing
6:04
Oh, my gosh. man, you know. See, y'all taking this show, man
6:12
See, all it's supposed to be about is fun and laughter. I want you guys to have a great time with me, not a bad time, you know
6:24
And I thank those who stood tall with me on all of this stuff because at the end of the
6:30
day, Law Nation, I'm not a gatekeeper. I help so many people out, you know what I'm saying? Yeah
6:38
Law, you and Ray Clint need to talk a bit like, man, that's what I already did
6:44
Matter of fact, matter of fact, you know, at the end of the day, at the end of the day, you're going to have disagreements, right
6:55
You're going to have confusions. But when you're operating in a different level, those who don't understand that will never, will never understand it
7:04
given that I'm not talking as if though I'm cocky. What I'm talking as if, you know, the whole thing set up
7:14
the whole thing was set up for them to not even move a single thing
7:20
It was all on me. Yeah, it was all on me. But you know just listening in to a bunch of grown men crying about something that basically they shouldn be crying about or giving details on is crazy to me
7:39
And at the end of the day, it's one of those things
7:43
Let me tune in. Let me just tune in to see what they're talking about one more time
7:48
You know, just one more time. Let me just tune in to see what they're yapping about. because it's crazy, man
7:55
We grown mad, you know? Oh, we grown mad. But let me tune in to see what they're talking about
8:00
Hold on. Hey, Ray! Ray
8:11
Ray, get the balls out your mouth, man! Oh, my goodness. Oh, oops, did I say that out loud
8:17
Oh, my God. Now, normally I don't go this way, but I'm going to go this way because normally I don't go this way, but I'm going to go this way
8:34
Because at the end of the day, my name is my name
8:39
And it's very disrespectful for anybody to say these type of things when I'm the very much so one
8:48
When they're around me, they didn't have to reach into their wallets
8:51
They didn't have to reach into nothing. But since y'all want to make it that way, since y'all want to put it that way
9:01
you know, at the end of the day, no matter what anybody say
9:08
yeah, yeah. Hold on. What you crying about? Hush. Hush
9:18
A grown man talking here. Let me entertain y'all a little bit on this
9:22
You know, can somebody let me know who this is in the picture, dare I say
9:30
You know, because at the end of the day, don't y'all know that just based off of this alone
9:38
these headsets, can somebody explain to, can somebody look up Audio-Technica headsets
9:46
Them headsets are $300 apace. The camera itself that I use to shoot this podcast that's live at this remote session is well north of five bands, right
10:01
On top of that, I don't have to explain anything, but I'm just telling y'all what's going on
10:07
That table, that table is a hundo. The equipment far as the monitor is over $300
10:16
The soundboard that y'all listening to when I play this is a whole stack
10:24
$1,000. $1,000 of my money, right? And I set this up brick by brick
10:34
And this is what I get. You know, this is how y'all going to trade me
10:38
And y'all think that Ray put in on this? And this dude right here, this dude, AOC, if you think about it
10:47
who headsets these things are, you know, and who headsets he using
10:52
Yeah, if we want to get to the money and the nits of everything
10:57
Law Nation is putting money on everything. All they had to do is just show up at the end of the day
11:07
On top of that, I really don't have to explain this, but I'm showing y'all
11:12
And, oh, excuse me, platform, who put who where? You know, who invited this guy to the cookout
11:21
Oh, law, you know, who embraced this dude? You know, who did this
11:26
Who put him there? Who put him there? That's my guy, TP
11:31
But who started this? Come on with it. Let's not get twisted over here
11:35
He didn't have to pay a dime. He didn't have to reach in his pocket. So what platform are you talking about, right
11:41
So at the end of the day, none of these boys put in anything, right
11:47
They just had to show up. You just had to show up
11:52
So when people start talking about this and that, who is making the most
11:59
Me. I got everything to lose and nothing to gain. So at the end of the day, ladies and gentlemen, I don't want to dox anybody, but my name is my name
12:18
And just like anything, I got to protect my name, right? Rodriguez, yeah
12:25
Take the money out. All of it. Jose Rodriguez, $19.99. came off of my strength. A lot of these people came off of my strength. And what a difference a
13:09
year make. Now, all of a sudden, y'all trying to grandstand Law Nation. Come on with it. You know
13:15
at the end of the day, he's happy. And that's what I want for everybody. I want to make the face
13:22
of everybody to be happy, right? Happy, happy, joy, joy. So at the end of the day
13:30
at the end of the day, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls around this beautiful globe
13:36
I put him on. He didn't know who Ray Ray Ray is, right? At the end of the day, not to say
13:45
I'm doxing anybody, you know what I'm saying, but when the owner himself says that he do not want
13:53
him there because how he spoke at the meeting, especially towards the ladies. And we're going
14:00
to address the ladies situation because I always been a ladies man, by the way, you know, but at
14:05
the end of the day, I can't help who like me, you know, but at the end of the day, ladies and
14:10
gentlemen, this is my last time addressing everything. Ask those two queens over there
14:18
who paid who? Ask them two queens who paid who? Because even when everything went to the bottom
14:27
right, I literally stated this right here. And this is a text message that they probably didn't
14:34
show. Hey, Ray, NAOC, I think it's safe to say because this is after I talked to the owner
14:41
It's a wrap, fam. I truly appreciate your support with the flyers and all of the hard work
14:48
that you put in Send me your cash app I going to send you something your way AOC I really respect your grind and your grit Keep being the best at everything you do If I overstepped because I did say I law nation right I did say that at the meeting after the owner was gone to them
15:08
because at the end of the day, you can't challenge and question what I bring to the table
15:13
But neither here nor there. I apologize. Never to say I'm sorry because I'm not that
15:20
You know what I'm saying? Sometimes things just aren't meant to be
15:24
Let's focus on our individual brands now. And who knows? Maybe one day we will look back on this and have good laughs over drinks
15:35
Let's go DC for life. And then Ray, he states, understandable. I appreciate
15:42
Here's my cash app. He put his cash app down and then he said it would be easier to sell it
15:49
And guess what? I paid it. Him in AOC. And that's the bottom line for whatever else that need to be talked about
15:58
Now, they drug this. That was nine days ago, right? Eight or nine days ago, right
16:04
Now, for anybody, for anybody who's born today or last year or in the future
16:13
I want to give you guys this information. I want to give you guys this information
16:20
At the end of the day, if God created the entire universe or the multiverse in seven days
16:29
you mean to tell me we can't put efforts to put on an event that you two norm schools don't have to reach into your pocket at all
16:38
And y'all worrying about licenses and stuff like that? I'm Law Nation. Arlington, you might as well say Arlington Law Nation
16:47
You know what I'm saying? No cops is going to come down there and say, ah, what about this and that
16:52
Because the venue itself hosts events every freaking day. It's not like the owner, this is his very first event
17:03
So when you start to talk about licenses and what's this and that, the deal was already done by my PR
17:11
The building was Scott Frey. So at the end of the day, ladies and gentlemen, we ain't going to talk about anything else, but the truth is the moment was probably too big for them, you know, and they need to check in on that
17:30
But neither here nor there. Appreciate all of y'all's support, your love
17:34
The real, it will be happening at the top of the hour. You know, I like Law, but as family, he's old enough to be my grandfather
17:42
Yes, the owner needs to protect his brand, too. And I get it, you know
17:50
And this is a straight-up message from the owner. He just didn't want to work with AOC
17:57
I can't force another man to work with another man, right? And that's why I gave them, I said, I think it's a wrap
18:06
I appreciate your hard work for the Flyers, Ray. I appreciate your time, AOC
18:11
and I both gave them cash apps that I shouldn't even gave. Them heroes on me
18:18
Them naysays on me. Come on with it. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness
18:25
Oh, my goodness. Come on with it. Shoot. Hallelujah, $201. Law I had to price is right, Angie Rebel Chicks
18:33
because I play games like that. Rolling on the floor laughing salute
18:36
to whoever gifted me a one-month membership yesterday. I appreciate you Like I always say it's Law Nation for life
18:44
Come on with it man I appreciate y'all blessing the stream And I really appreciate y'all
18:50
For y'all understanding The hard work and the dedication for the nation
18:53
It is very much so valuable to all Even when AOC didn't have
18:58
The proper mic Guess who said hey It would be better if you get one of these right
19:03
It would be better if you put your backdrop up So everything can look clean and precise Boy
19:10
But it is for what it is, man What's understood shouldn't have to be explained But
19:18
Keep exposing And you expose yourself, right? I appreciate you so much, man
19:23
Holly, for your support This is Really, really generous You and Angie
19:30
For y'all's support, man Oh my goodness, man Come on with it
19:34
What is your profession? Let me tune in one more time. Hold on. Hold on. I got to tune in one more time to what they crying about. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Okay. Hold on. I got to tune in one more time. One more time. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness
19:55
Angie Rebel Chicks $19.99. Hallelujah. Stay out my pocketbook. Yeah. Fight. Don't spoil me with a good time
20:10
Shoot. Super Chat Wars is here, you know. Oh, let me tune in one more time
20:15
I forgot to tune in one more time to him. Okay. Okay
20:21
All right. Oh, my gosh, man. Hey. All right
20:31
But neither here nor there. All I can say is the Dallas Cowboys
20:40
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Nick and Sam, look, look, Nick and Sam. I want a steak so tender and soft I can pull out a butter knife
20:49
Yeah, yeah. No, but everything going to go back to setting up for Oxnard
20:56
because, you know, that's the next big trip, and I want to be able to get out to Oxnard
21:01
and get things going. Holly was like, man, she won. They can come closer than close, yeah
21:11
Original they never will be. All right, so back to football, and we're going to turn off the – Hush
21:21
Get some testosterone, man. Come on, hush that up over there. You know, shoot
21:27
Hey, she's. God, no, let's talk like man over here. All right
21:31
So the news of the hour is it would be surprising if the Cowboys selected anything but a wide receiver and cornerback in the first round
21:41
This year with Charles Robinson, who is one of the greater scouts out here and does great yst work
21:48
he is saying that it would be more than likely to choose between Ohio State or D. Ohio State, Emeka Ibuka, or Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden
22:01
at the 12th overall spot if Ted McMillan is already gone. So I want to know from y'all thoughts of this particular situation is that do you guys see
22:14
and I mean just that with everything in my heart, do you guys see the Cowboys going with this kid
22:24
or do you see them going with Ohio State because my thoughts of this is and I put the crown over Ohio State
22:36
is who have a better track record program-wise of wide receivers? Could we go that low
22:46
You know, my guy Toxic Tong said, F Ohio State. You know what I'm saying
22:52
But at the end of the day, ladies and gentlemen, do you go with somebody that you know for sure
23:00
Program been testing out Chris Alave, Garrett Wilson. Who else from Ohio State
23:06
The junior, junior kid. I believe Marvin Harris, Jr. Name me another Ohio State
23:15
Terry Glenn. Oh, my bad. That's too far back. Chris Carter. That's way too far back
23:19
I'm telling my age. Name me all of the nice Ohio State wide receivers
23:24
and do you trust the business of just the program itself, or do you really think, because I thought for sure that Ohio State, LSU
23:38
to a degree, Alabama, those are your wide receivers university. You know what I'm saying
23:43
Like, do you trust the new broom? You know, because they say, write this down
23:49
New Broom can sweep the floor good, but that old Broom can get those corners, right
23:54
Yeah, Jackson Smith and Jigba, Terry McLaurin. That's a strong argument. That's a strong argument for Ohio State now
24:05
You know what? I fought myself into this, you know. I think Jalen Hyatt, he was from Tennessee, right
24:14
Ibuka would be the great first-round pick for us. All right, so here's what I like about Ibuka
24:22
When we're looking at it from a Joey Galloway went to Ohio State
24:28
I didn't even know. Emeka is the old broom. The new broom would be okay
24:36
I like that ysis right there. ogy would be golden, okay. yeah hi it did went to tennessee him um
24:53
kid that got drafted to uh the browns what have you you know tennessee they okay with wide
25:01
receivers but i i do like that dante thornton though that kid you know uh kenny block
25:07
ibuka imeka ibuka he's a out of this draft you can literally make an argument
25:17
that he'd probably be your most well-rounded wide receiver, you know what I'm saying, if we can make it that argument, right
25:28
And when you look up everything, I just wish, you know, I didn't have haters on the other side that I can show y'all footages and film
25:36
but I'm on a situation where even if I show a snippet of a footage, you know
25:42
NFL coming after me, you know. So he's 6'1", 202, and he is a guy that I know for sure, if you look at him
26:00
they comped him to Jackson Smith and Jigba, right? They comped him to that
26:05
Fluid, athletic, with good size and quality ball skills, who works primarily from the slot
26:11
but if you look at some of his tape you can also see uh the the skill set that he brings because
26:20
you can line them offside sometimes and i think that he's a sure hands uh former look look i'm a
26:28
baseball guys former outfielder with excellent track and ability adjust abilities to catch
26:34
radius you know so he got a window a balcony throw it that way he go get it good feeling
26:40
and manipulating, right, and coverage in space. So if you know you're going to run a bang eight
26:45
you know you got to get down in there, right? You got to sell that you're selling the highs of the tree, right
26:52
And you got to sell some things, right? Hits his turns and stems with a good timing and tempo
27:02
And what we are talking about is that when you get out of your gaze, right
27:06
Out of your stance. If he come to Jackson Smith and Jigba, right
27:11
and I got Matthew Golden come to Chris Alave, I think we can go either way, right
27:18
When you look at all of what they can do, I think that Ibuka will fit right on well with us
27:28
I think that, you know, oh, my goodness. Halle out of the grandma's couch
27:34
Come on with it. Come on. Hallelujah, $49.99. Found a couple more dollars under the mattress law rolling on the floor laughing ice
27:43
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, now you, what, are you fooling around and reaching into Grandma's couch and you pulling out some wards
27:52
Oh, my goodness, man. Oh, my goodness, come on with it, man, boy
27:59
It's a party, baby. Under the mattress money, you know. I'm running it all
28:04
Yeah. Real Run It Up. This is brought to you by Hallelujah
28:12
Flex. Come on. Mike Crash, brother. Appreciate you running it up, bro
28:25
Had to play a song off of that one, man. I really do appreciate you
28:30
Speed appears to be average, but his drive phase of his route
28:37
meaning that he don't have an explosive release off of his route
28:42
There's Ibuka, right? Let me pull up Matthew, you know, and we're going to be living our life like it's golden
28:49
based off of all of these super chats. I really appreciate y'all. Love y'all to the moon and back
28:55
I really appreciate those who appreciate me. And now, man, we got 401k Angie
29:02
Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness! Angie Rebel Chicks $49.99
29:11
Strippers take direct deposits, too. Hey, jeez. Come on, man! What else they can do
29:29
Oh, yeah. That brother said never will be. You know, it's funny we're seeing the fingerprints of law
29:38
You know what I'm saying? When other people start up their live stream and somebody's sending a super chat and the AI get to speaking
29:47
Oh, you said you don't need me. Oh, okay. All right. Hey, hush, hush
29:52
I want all that crying over there. Take the money out. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
30:00
Yeah. Okay. All right, man. All right. All right. So at the end of the day, boy, all that crying going on
30:10
Who the two queens are crying, boy? God, no. Hey, I'm going to be a bartender at this party
30:17
The queens, boy. She's a queen to be. Boy, y'all better watch out, man
30:27
Watch out for them queens. All right. So he's 5'11", 191. And if you look down at his table, it's phenomenal
30:35
I do like what he brings to the table. Now, he's come for a first round
30:39
They got him as Chris Alave. Shout out to Chris Alave. I really like Chris Alave coming out of college
30:46
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. All right. So with that being said, she's going to break the stream
30:52
You ain't lying. Jeez. Golden works on all three levels. of the field with similar consistency and productivity
31:03
His route running needs refinement. I thought he was a good route runner
31:10
But he does a decent job on altering tempo, meaning stop, go, right
31:17
Go, stop. Yes, indeed. Oh, my gosh, man, y'all crazy. Go to have speed and route precision, right
31:26
All right, so this was written before the combine, of course, and I do like the work that's happening before the combine
31:36
Meets the moment with big plays and big games. I do like that adequate linear speed
31:42
It works on pass corner and on vertical routes. Yeah, I do like that
31:48
Agile feet allows quick to gather and cut in and out of his routes
31:54
Now, with that being said, man, why y'all got me laughing over here, man
32:03
God, dog, my last $2, I'm not going to lose. Yes, it is
32:08
All he needs to do is watch CD Lab and crazy work will get fixed
32:13
Yeah, all right, so both guys, both guys, both guys, let's get back to this topic matter right here with both guys
32:19
After looking at the ysis of Lance Zerline, You know, I believe that's how you say that man's last night who does a great job
32:27
I always say trust but verify. Look at the tape that you can't see for yourself
32:33
Write this down. None of the guys that's here are finished products
32:38
Write this down. None of the guys here are finished products, meaning that these guys still have to polish up on their skill sets when they get to the National Football League
32:50
Now, either of these guys, I will tell you guys, now, no shade upon it
32:57
because I always got to put a little cover. God, dog, I'm with certain people, right
33:01
And that's not me cocky talking, right? But I truly believe that both of these wide receivers will be better than a Jalen Brooks
33:13
i truly believe both of these wide receivers will be better than a jaylen brooks let me turn into
33:22
dr umar both of these wide receivers will be better than jaylen brooks okay all right so moving
33:30
a little bit further i truly believe that both of these guys will be better and say it with me
33:37
mingo you know i think that they will be better than mingo but mingo got his ground to fight
33:43
That's the one thing that I will say without a shadow of a doubt. I'm seeing the video going viral of him working on his releases, and that's a good thing
33:52
And I think that he is a decent route runner for his size, right
33:57
Also, Angie is the GOAT. Yeah, yeah. She's the GOAT over there, you know
34:03
We need more content, brother. I feel you. Kelly, appreciate you. Thank you so much for jumping in and hopping in
34:09
So, I truly believe that Jalen Tobert will not be better than these two, right
34:20
So, that's why I look at this like this is a win-win situation
34:25
Now, are we in the area of saying to ourselves, ultimately, is this a need or a want
34:34
That's what I want, baby. That's what I want to know. Is this a need or a want
34:40
Break this down for those that's in the chat. Long, she said she was going to let me win
34:47
Hey, man, y'all fight that out. Take the money out, all of it
34:52
Come on. Oh, my gosh, man. Is it a need or a want, baby
35:01
That's all I want to know, y'all. Is it a need or a want
35:05
Why receive it? is it a need or a want come on with it and while i'm doing that what we have new here
35:19
who's been entered into the building is it's a need okay i love y'all man i love y'all for
35:27
thinking on that level yeah break the pool stick oh i love it you know that boy said we only have
35:34
one position left. All right. So he's from the show me state. His name is Luther, not
35:40
Van draws, but burden. And he won't be that for your team. He's six foot 206. When I look
35:47
at his tape, I see a more masculine Odell Beckham. He's not the feminine side. Oops
35:59
Did I say that out loud? My bad. Y'all don't get me. But let me see
36:05
They got Garrett Wilson, another Ohio State guy, right? And they projected him to be in the second round
36:12
But there are some triggers here of stating that Charles Robinson says it
36:19
will be a stunner to the Cowboys select Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden
36:23
12th. Overall, Adam Burden is a second-round guy on the vast majority of other teams
36:30
Full quote. If the Cowboys pull a surprise and take Missouri Luther Burden III
36:36
it would be a stunner. The vast majority of teams have Burden solidified
36:43
I can't read today. I blame y'all. I blame y'all. I'm just going to blame everybody
36:50
They consider him a second-round wide receiver. Now, granted, where do you all feel as if, though, oh, my bad
37:06
OBJ don't got no sugar, you know. Don't come after me, OBJs, OBJians
37:13
I don't want people to come after me, man, you know, but neither here nor there
37:25
Oh my goodness 401k holly oh my goodness Hallelujah Law seriously today is payment for all the years of great content that you have provided
37:37
to me and the rest of Cowboys Nation. Close the doors
37:57
Close the doors. Close the doors. We all going to leave together
38:01
We all going to leave together, baby. Good Lord, baby. You know
38:06
Shit. Oh, my goodness. Man, they going to have me in the skybox with Jerry
38:15
Y'all keep supporting me like this. I'll be in the skybox with Jerry Jones
38:21
I'm talking about, hey, pass me the McGriddle. put that little Himalaya salt on my eyes
38:26
though yeah yeah pink salt you don't got it where the Celtics saw that
38:30
at least you know come on Jerry yeah yeah Jerry I'm gonna be
38:34
up there with you man me you and Jamie Fox Jerry gonna be like
38:44
well law is 5 foot 11 205 unit size
38:58
but I ain't going to say it yes indeed Josh Blaze says
39:04
if we get Tet let me read this right Josh Blaze and I really appreciate you
39:14
he says if we get Tet in the third go what do this means Josh
39:25
I appreciate you man let me see if I can if we get Ted in third
39:29
go get Brees for our second and five or possible third if we can trade back
39:39
in the first do it for Sutton and get Hampton Trey Harris used
39:47
to be a number two for the cornerback. Man, my hooked on phonics way, my eyes are working, Josh
39:57
JB, and I really appreciate your support. But can I get a translator, you know
40:02
I need a translator, man. I need a translator, you know. Yeah, yeah
40:07
Get Ted in the first. Okay, Josh, you say get Ted in the first round. Okay, I'm following you
40:11
Okay, all right, all right, right. Okay, get Ted in the first round
40:15
get rid of your third round draft pick or possible two in the fifth for
40:20
briefs, right? If we can trade back in the first, do it
40:27
And that's a whole nother conversation, right? So if we trade, all right, so if the 10th thing don't go
40:33
then you trade back in the first, right? For Sutton and get Hampton or trade Henderson
40:43
used the number two draft pick for a cornerback. Okay, so now I'm getting it
40:50
Okay, all right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Shoot. All right, so somebody says
41:00
Montreal says, you know, shoot, hooked on chronics. I'm a hooked on phonics graduate, you know
41:10
I graduated top of my class. who are three people in there. Since they's calling me amateur law, and I don't know anything
41:19
I don't know how to conduct businesses. So I'm an amateur. I'm a hooked on funny guy, you know
41:24
Law, I'm limited with characters, pimp. Did the best I could. No, Josh, you did a great job, man
41:31
Shoot, that $4.99 for your mind. Shoot, come on with it. I needed that
41:36
I can break it down like this, and I get what you said. But with Tet, if Tet is not there, if we can get Tet, that's cool
41:44
But if Tet is not there, basically what you're saying is basically move back into first, right
41:54
and see where we can go with that, okay? That's basically what you said, all right
41:59
So if I go here, and let's go five rounds, okay? And then I'm going to go with the ideology of the speed, not turbo
42:12
Let's look at least fast so I can see what's going on. And let's see if we can enter this draft
42:19
And I got to – hold on. Bear with me, baby. All right, boom
42:25
We're going to start the draft. Okay. All right, so let's see what we got
42:29
All right, so I want to go – Walter Nolan is there
42:36
Full draft. Okay, so let's see what happened. All right, so Cam gone, Travis Hunter gone, Ted gone to the Giants
42:45
Ted has gone to the Giants. That's wild. You know, Will Campbell, Mason Graham, Ashton Gentry has gone to the Raiders
42:54
F the Raiders at this point. Abdul Carter, Mikel Williams in Armand
43:00
He's gone to the Saints. Who that? Oh, Colston gone. That's wild
43:05
Michigan tight end. Kevin Banks has gone to the 41ers. And now we are on the clock, okay
43:13
And the available players that we have to draft, let me see if I can pull this up
43:19
Come on, bear with me while I work this over here. All right, so we go back
43:24
Nope, don't want to go cancel it. All right, so where am I at? Here I go
43:28
Here I go. Boom. Bear with me, man. I told you my hooked on funny guys
43:32
All right, so we got Walter Nolan. Oh, man, that would be a godsend for me, you know, if we get Walter Nolan because of the Mississippi ties
43:43
We got Malachi Starks, Mike Green, Jaday Barron, and according to my Hookum Longhorns family
43:50
they say that Jaday is the next Ed Reed. You got Tyler Warren, you got Jahad Campbell, and you got Will Johnson, and you got Luther
43:59
All right, so based off of this, according to the Dallas Cowboys' overall needs
44:08
they need a running back, wide receiver, guard, and edge rusher. They need to put DT in there, right
44:15
So if I go with the best available left wide receiver, the pro football focus
44:22
Nolan is a beast. I'm awake. I feel you. The pro football focus, oh, my goodness, boy
44:28
Hey, I love the fight boy. Come on, don't spoil me with a good time
44:35
Emotional. In a good way, shoot. Angie Rebel Chicks $19.99. I crown Hallelujah as winner
44:43
He taking money out the Wolf Kitty Fund to bless Law. I refuse to be selfish
44:50
This is where we hold them This is where we fight Yo oh yeah I telling y drafting drafting with that particular pick with the 12th pick is a blessing
45:09
All right, so here are the top four wide receivers. Luther, Emeka, Matthew, and Elik
45:18
Those are according to pro football focuses, you know. And we got four pending trades, and I'm not going to do this
45:25
I'm not going to get into the trade thing. But those are your four availables
45:31
Let's take it back and look at our running backs. Omarion Hampton, Scadaboo, Dylan Sampson, Caleb Johnson, Travion Henderson
45:42
and Quinshawn Junkins, and R.J. Harvey, and Damian Martinez. Here's my thoughts on this list right here
45:50
If I was to poll and shout out to the GoFundMe Wolf Kitty fund, that's crazy, man
45:57
Man, look, I blame Atlas and I blame Mando for all of these nuances of craziness that we have as it relates to the Cowboys chat over here talking about that
46:09
You know, oh, also, let me know when the press conference is there
46:14
let me know when the press conference is up and live and we'll be able to do that
46:23
that damn uh shannon sharp is another situation with a lady you know
46:28
he didn't play he didn't pay his uh he didn't pay his he didn't pay them dues
46:38
he's huge he got beyond his self the britches got too big for him uh or too small as they say
46:46
uh a marion hampton cam scatterboo sampson if i were to ask you guys before i showed you this list
46:54
list me your top five running backs let me see what's your top what's your top five running back
47:00
if y'all can go that way what's your top five running back
47:06
Oh, yeah, that Ace Boogie, that Kanye West story is very wild
47:13
You know, some stuff you got to go to the grave with, you know
47:17
but Kanye West story, I mean, that's something that you just talk to the creator about
47:24
and then you just shank the person with the butter knife. Or you just take the whole knife out on the Kanye West story
47:31
A ledge story. I'm not going to get in a mess with that, you know. Yeah, Shannon Sharp got like two or three more minutes before he get the ax
47:41
Yeah, yeah, it's Mando's fault. Including outside of Gentry, take Gentry off the board, right
47:50
What are your top five running backs? Hampton, Henderson, Junkins, Tut. Okay, there's two broke to pay attention
47:59
The running back, Tut, from Virginia is very nice. Hello, Lord. Rub some Mando all over your body for good luck
48:10
Mando, you hear them? They call your name. We need you to be the presenting sponsor of this draft party brought to you by Law Nation Sports
48:20
You know, all of the other people that have been crying over here
48:25
Yeah, yeah. So if that's the case in the scenario. Yeah, if that's the case in the scenario, let me let y'all know that we are not going to have a good time at all at this draft party

50:08
Andrew, don't do them like that. Be nice, Andrew. You know, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
50:16
Who's Angie? Who's Holly? Must be attention. No, they support us, man
50:21
Don't do that. Come on! Yeah, don't do them like that. And they understand the cost
50:29
They understand the cost. That is involved. Involved. There's 1,000 of you
50:34
I said close them doors. Close them doors, Andrew. Don't let Andrew up out of here
50:39
Andrew! All right, so back to business over here. Where were we
50:47
We were on the drafting of the pick here with the first pick
50:54
Although my heart telling me I want a Marion, right? And I know what he will be able to bring
51:00
But I'm going to go with Ohio State, man. Are you not entertained
51:08
Are you not entertained? Wrong button, but it still fits, right? It still fits
51:14
Come on. Where's that button at? I promise y'all, man, I know, I know, man, I know
51:25
Y'all mad at me. Don't be mad at me. If you're not having fun doing this
51:31
if you're not having a great time doing this, then come on, man
51:35
What are we doing here, okay? We got to have fun, and that's what I like to do
51:43
All right, so we got the wide receiver. let's see where we at with the running back game
51:50
And I know I'm vanilla bland when I don't do a lot of trades
51:54
or what have you in this draft. I like Scatterboo, but there's no way in my heart
51:59
that I can allow myself to go draft Scatterboo in the second round
52:04
I like Scatterboo. I'm not putting anything against him, you know. I like Scatterboo
52:11
Yeah. Scatterboo, a Cavalpoo. or a Sabu legacy five
52:24
oh my gosh man let go and I like Dylan but I don like him at the second
52:36
Caleb Johnson. I have a strange feeling that Caleb Johnson is going to be a crazy, look, everybody doubting his speed
52:43
but you turn on the tape, the dude is like a bowling ball over there, you know
52:47
just running folks over, looking for somebody to punish. I do like his skill sets
52:52
quenshawn juckins i like him rj harvey i like him damian martinez i just don't see
53:01
where i can go wrong with a running back right here but i'm i think that since this running back
53:08
class is such a deep one i'm going to make the necessary thing to make everybody mad
53:15
just a little bit and i'm going with interior i'm going with i got my offensive toy i'm finna
53:22
to help out Matt Iberflus right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going to make the sacrifice
53:30
and I'm looking for an interior defensive lineman. I like Omar. I like him
53:39
But, man, J.C. Cowboy Network, appreciate you. These are goals, Law. Keep up the great work
53:47
He didn't say good work. He said great work. Take the money out. What is your profession
53:54
Long, long, long, long. Now, to some people, that could be considered me being cocky
54:02
but I'm just telling y'all my name. You know what I'm saying? So you can put the MF in front of it or behind it, you know, wherever you want
54:10
But I like Talik Williams over Omar. Now, I know for sure that most of you guys will say
54:17
man, Cowboys are turning to the Ohio State boys. granted let's go with Williams is not the sexy of the sexy pick but now all of us and I like
54:30
Darius Alexander too oh I love him he's very versatile Toledo but give me D Ohio State
54:39
and I know my guy Toxic Tom he's mad like damn dog how many Ohio State guys you gonna get
54:47
With the 44th pick, the Cowboys select Tyleek Williams, you know. All right, come on with it
54:55
The Ohio State Cowboys, baby. Y'all ain't going to like it, but we got a short
55:01
Let me just break this down right quick. Let me just tell y'all for what we got right now, ladies and gentlemen
55:07
And let me know if y'all mad. What's your point? No, no, they don't need to be mad
55:12
But, you know, shoot, stop all of that crying and stuff, man. All that doggone crying
55:17
Hush. before I send you to the Queen's Chamber. You know, God, no, but she
55:24
Hey, you still crying? Hush your mother mouth. Come on, before I get
55:29
Take the money out. All right, before we go, before we go anywhere further
55:37
hey, I know, let me break this down and why this is such a beautiful selection for us
55:47
we got a polished wide receiver who don't have to be in the spotlight
55:58
who's going to take the attention for what it is given to him as an advantage
56:05
We do know the creme de la creme is, dare I say, hear me out, is CeeDee Lamb
56:14
but with Emeka I think that on the next level this brother can be on the X and if you want to
56:23
move him around is he's so versatile not saying that you'll play him at the Y because that's that
56:29
will be Mingo's spot but you can move him around him and lamb and I'm quite sure
56:36
when you look at shoddy system i'm crying over here oh my god if you look at this ladies and gentlemen
56:49
he's going to be a guy that can blend right in with this system
56:56
he's heads and shoulders better than what we already have he's a sure hands catcher he can
57:02
catch the ball in traffic yeah he will have to work on some of his releases because he do get
57:07
caught up in the jam that's why they put him in the in the z spot you know but with this particular
57:13
offense they're going to be doing a lot of motioning you know it's going to be not a vertical
57:18
offense this is pretty much going to be a horizontal and you scoot and get upfield but
57:23
running is primarily and yes we don't have a running back yet but if you look at this
57:29
tyleek williams right and if i pull this up let me go pull this up pff watch zeke pull up watch
57:37
zeke pull up let me see if i pull this up or they can pull up zeke yeah zeke always up there i'm go
57:42
dallas cowboys so we can see it in the in i'm pulling it up as we talk boy we was terrible
57:51
last year sheesh we don't want to go back to those days right and if i pull up this um
57:57
lineup, right? And I know it's Taney. You're about to just switch your eyes
58:02
and we're going to go to defense. You put Tyleek Williams here
58:13
That's an upgrade, baby. And then Mozzie. Then Mozzie. Mozzie! Stop all that crying, man
58:24
You're going to still play? You're going to still play? we're gonna still play you you know so we're going to have for mozzie to be a rotational situation
58:35
but when you look up talik williams you know uh what he can bring to the table i think that that's
58:43
gonna that's gonna pay off really well for us why law because when you start to think about
58:50
what we need we need somebody that can push some things around six foot three a true six foot three
58:56
a true 334 you know and they got him tied into a lean mcneil right and i know y'all know a lean
59:04
mcneil play for the detroit big body guy that can push things around and this will be the process
59:11
let me just pull this around so y'all can see his uh is they got it projected as a second round
59:17
this is good for us you know is mozzie fasting i don't know but uh
59:23
i love the word play with this drain clogging run defender it's not sexy but i'm just trying to
59:35
stop the run i'm trying to stop the run stop the run on my way i pick up a bag of cheetos right
59:41
on my way i pick up a bag of honey buns a box of honey buns oh it's a quarterback snack oh
59:47
On the way, we get to the quarterback. But your first priority is stop the run
1:00:00
right? Your first priority is stopping the run. I love it, Dre. You see that? Look, look, Dre
1:00:13

1:00:51

1:01:26
I don't want you to read this part. Girthy, Girthy lower body with big, meaty hands
1:01:34
Hey, all I can say is, hey, hey, man, you out of pocket for this one
1:01:40
But that's the explanation of how they explain who he is. Hey, who are you
1:01:45
girthy lower body with big meaty hands explosive and violent on the initial stage of block take-ons
1:01:58
come on man you know that's what you want punch and release move left leave blockers falling forward
1:02:06
got girth, you know. I just don't want her to hear those meaty hands, you know
1:02:16
Blue Chew was a football player. Come on. Works laterally with blocks to stay in gaps and solid on stretch plays
1:02:24
That's all I want, man. So, like I say, when you are drafting somebody
1:02:30
I can't take this no more I can't take this no more man
1:02:38
Oh my god Oh my god
1:02:53
A Zane novel yo yeah that's his name right lance zirlane zirlane zirlane wrote this girth lower body
1:03:07

1:03:14
defend your picks that's all i'm trying to get at y'all and uh not to be too long-winded with that
1:03:20
All right, so let's go back to the draft. So we drafted him
1:03:24
Okay, so we are on the clock with the 76 pick. Oh, my gosh
1:03:33
Omar went to the Niners. Elite went to the Patriots. Caleb Johnson went to the Chiefs
1:03:43
Wait a minute. What are they doing? They went and got Dylan Sampson and Caleb Johnson
1:03:50
Oh, they traded him to Tennessee. What did they do? Angie says, meaty hands all over the wolf kitty
1:03:58
Her, I heard, makes babies. Hey, all I can say is, let's get back to football
1:04:17
All right, let me get back to this football. Okay, all right. All right, so we got our Demetrius Knight
1:04:23
Oh, my God. You're talking about a hitter. This dude can hit. But we still need our running back
1:04:29
We still need our running back, okay, ladies and gentlemen. Oh, my gosh
1:04:37
Don't you know how crazy this would be? Hear me out. Hear me out
1:04:44
Martinez. Martinez will be the one for me
1:04:55
Now, the problem is that I had a chance to talk to a coaching staff
1:05:04
You can take it however you want it. But they are fond of this other guy
1:05:10
And y'all can say his name. You know what I'm saying? They are very fond of him
1:05:14
I like Ali Gordon I like Jarquez Hunter I like Jadon Blue
1:05:23
but if this boy falls the way it goes Emeka Talik Martinez Martinez
1:05:36
he reminds you Mike of James Conner let me see what they got Martinez
1:05:42
as okay first look all right and what i'm getting at i like him is an early down nfl back with good
1:05:55
size and physical when you look on the tape the brother runs physical like his hair on fire right
1:06:01
carrying a high force missed tackle average he will likely serve as a power component in a committee
1:06:09
unless he has significantly improved his pass blocking fundamentals, meaning that he got a knock on pass pro
1:06:17
But neither here nor there. This is what they have for his pros versus cons
1:06:26
Y'all let me know when thecowboys.com is on or what have you with that draft presser thing
1:06:32
you know, and let me know. I can't show any visuals of the dallascowboys.com footages
1:06:38
I can play audio. I had a knock on the principal door
1:06:43
You guys can go back and watch that Tyron Smith presser release
1:06:50
They talked to me and said, hey, we like what you're doing, but you're doing a little bit too much
1:06:55
You can't use our footages and stuff like that, even if you are on the screen
1:07:00
Thank God to them. They just gave me a snap on the wrist
1:07:04
Damn, boy, damn, boy. But he got a massive build with powerful frame
1:07:12
tough to bring down on first contact, right? Strong enough to uphold his pass protection
1:07:18
Like, wait a minute, but that's what he needs to work on. Light feet allowing him to move well behind man and gap blocking scheme We going to be doing a lot of pool traps GT counters Now the problem is do you bring in someone that already knows your system
1:07:41
or do you bring in somebody that can learn your system? And that's going to be the choice between Martinez and DJ Giddens
1:07:50
DJ Giddens, to me, he can be that surprise in this draft
1:07:54
out of a running back because he's so elusive it looks like he's slow but he's not i mean he ran
1:07:59
there for 440 people like oh wow that helps his drag stock out but um i would say this good long
1:08:08
speed for his frame aided by his track background all right so what i'm gonna do here if i'm sticking
1:08:16
to my guns pause if necessary for those who against nra which i'm a proud nra guy you know
1:08:24
know what I'm saying over here. I would go with Martinez. And I'm done with the running back
1:08:38
So now what Law is looking for is a linebacker or DB. I will put my DB a little bit ahead of this
1:08:47
you know, let's see where we can go and let's see how we can get things going. Yeah
1:08:52
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ohio State, baby. All right, so with that being said, I am awake
1:09:05
most running backs struggle with pass protecting. That's one of the things that when Coach taught it up for us
1:09:13
just get in the way. Coach would say get in the way, at least get in the way. Sacrifice your body, man, get down into it
1:09:19
I think that blocking is pretty much what they say
1:09:28
What's the saying? I know Toxic Tongue might know it or somebody in the chat might know it
1:09:33
How the saying go? 99% skill, 1% mental? Or is it 99% mental, 1% skill
1:09:43
Who knows that saying with blocking? Let me see if my football guy is in there. Because it's all about your mindset
1:09:49
You know, the skills, shoot, you just got to want to do it, you know. Which one is it
1:09:55
Is it? Is it? It's mentality. 99, Ace Boogie, appreciate you, bro
1:10:00
99% mentality, 1% skill. Because you can have all the skill set, but if you ain't shoot through the 8
1:10:08
look, I kid you guys not. There have been times, and I like Tony Pollard
1:10:13
There have been times where Tony Pollard, if you go back and you watch that 2022
1:10:19
when Dak Prescott broke his thumb, Tony was like, shoot, I ain't finna, you know, shoot
1:10:24
this dude jumping through there. Yeah, yeah, 99% mental, 1% skill. So, yeah, appreciate you, toxic, Tom
1:10:33
If you don't have the mindset, look, I, look, sitting and putting your nose in that A-gap is a grown man's duty
1:10:47
because nine times out of ten, if you 205, if you 215, you know
1:10:55
and you're getting somebody to shoot through A or B gap, forehead of steam
1:10:59
and your quarterback is on his three-step drive, ha, ha, ha, you got to put your nose down in there
1:11:06
You got to make the sacrifice to block, and not everybody, and not everybody is willing to do that
1:11:15
not everybody will get into those gaps and say, hey, this is what I can do
1:11:22
So it's 99%, like you said, mentality. 99% of that. All right, let's get back to me to stop explaining about the blocking
1:11:36
But we do have a position here. We still need a guard
1:11:41
We still need edge rush according to pro football focus. But I'm doing my own focus here, and I'm going to CB land
1:11:50
All right? And when I look at what's left after the run of CBs went
1:11:56
we got a guy named Robert Longerbeam. I haven't really looked into him
1:12:08
I mean, five years of college, man. Couldn't get out of school, couldn't he? He stayed forever in school
1:12:14
5'11", 178. God, no, he needs a sandwich. All right, so let's go
1:12:20
Zy Alexander. You'll see, they have him. They don't want to give you acknowledges on him
1:12:27
There's a fundamental sound cover corner based off of limited athleticism. Likely he'll put him in a zone-specific
1:12:36
Now, I don't want to paint myself into a corner. Boy, can I dial a friend
1:12:42
What y'all got over there, man? Beans and bologna. Yeah, he do need that, Joker
1:12:49
Jeez. Please come home. I got beans and bologna
1:13:01
That boy, he need a whole sandwich. All right, so, man. Balai Cone, you know, this is where I literally in the weeds at
1:13:12
who draft who know i've seen some tape on jaylen smith but he's so far down the stretch
1:13:18
they give me an f for that which one of these dbs that y'all like somebody said riley quincy riley
1:13:25
there'll be too much of a reach right here he's listed at 178 but let me see quincy not carter
1:13:35
but riley and his states here six foot 190 okay 23 finna be 24 what he spent five years in college
1:13:42
committed to middle Tennessee out of high school first three seasons before transferring to
1:13:48
Louisville right he has a two-year starter more than 1500 snaps played in 2023 and 2024 he's a
1:13:56
smaller cornerback no he didn't go with him bro god oh boy you know at this point it's time to
1:14:03
trade for a while hey I don't know none of these boys right here boy let me get up out of this one
1:14:09
there. You know, good Lord. We in trouble. These are my picks so far. I'm good for
1:14:17
like the first three rounds, but when I get into the weeds here, boy, alright, so they finna start the draft
1:14:23
presser, right? Hold on, let me see where he's at. Hold on. Y'all bear with me
1:14:29
Y'all bear with me right here. Bear with me, Hail Mary. Appreciate
1:14:37
everybody for jumping in and being part of these type of conversations. And I'm going to..
1:14:48
Hello, is his hands meaty? Shoot. I don't know, man. Shoot. All right So when the presser is on they late Okay it going to be at 11 okay good 11 remind y I going to put the notifications on we got three minutes before countdown
1:15:10
Let me make sure the audio is straight. We got a commercial
1:15:16
And they're starting. We all hear audio. All right, so we're going to mute the audio, and we're going to listen in to the presser
1:15:35
while we try to work on whether or not hands are meaty or not, which is crazy
1:15:44
But so far, where do y'all got me at on this grade of the draft, you know, so far
1:15:50
And what I can do here, and I appreciate y'all, man. I love y'all
1:15:57
Even those who doubted me, I love y'all still, man. Even those who think laws, this and that, I appreciate y'all
1:16:06
I love y'all too, man. Here we go. Let's go to linebackers and see what they got available
1:16:15
now that's now that's the person that i know for sure if he falls over here as a steal
1:16:23
barrick carter from clemson yeah oh yeah let me tell y'all this dude is very versatile
1:16:31
this dude is very versatile ladies and gentlemen um and i'm still waiting y'all let me know
1:16:37
Let me know. He's 6'1", he's 230, he's 22, and Carter has one of the three linebackers
1:16:46
Let me see if I can give y'all – okay, we went to a wrong page here
1:16:52
Okay, hold on. Don't tell me. Don't tell me that I'd exit out of my doggone draft page, did I
1:17:01
No, no, I didn't. Boom. Come on with it. All right, bear with me
1:17:05
No counsel. Don't leave it. boom let me pull up carter's hold on bear with me ladies and gentlemen i'm telling y'all carter
1:17:15
is really nice i looked at his tape about three about two months ago and uh swearinger he's going
1:17:22
to be gone by that time we in the fifth round y'all we in the fifth round but let me see if
1:17:27
and i wish i could show y'all tape on this but uh you know how to tape thing uh hold on with me
1:17:33
Hold on with me, baby. Boom. I like Carter. Carter! Let's see what they got here
1:17:42
I like this guy's ysis right here. We go into, you got him labeled as Christian Harris, you know, old Alabama
1:17:56
Prototypical three-down linebacker who adds muscle frame and mass in 2024 without losing playmaking ability
1:18:04
Let me tell you something about him. He is so versatile that they utilize this brother at Clemson
1:18:09
as a running back in goal line situations. He can catch out of the backfield too
1:18:14
He's super athletic, and he's one of those guys that I think that he got the range
1:18:22
he got the athleticism across the field, has skill sets to stack up and impact plays around and behind him on the LOS
1:18:31
Good stick and move with hands. You hear that, Angie? He can stick and move
1:18:36
Agile with twitch, bursts, and close distance, meaning that he got closing speed
1:18:41
Now, his instincts, as far as a negative, his instincts diagnosed success are very just average
1:18:49
meaning that you're supposed to be where your feet at and beat your feet and get to the edge
1:18:54
and he had a little hesitancy here, and some of that showed up on tape
1:18:58
Slow feet into contact instead of running his feet through tackles, meaning that a – and I'm going to tell you all this
1:19:05
This is a very, very good ysis on slow feet as a linebacker
1:19:13
You've got to run your feet. You've got to be where your feet at
1:19:18
Drive through. A body in motion stays in motion, right? Yeah, close distance
1:19:24
Yeah, he's not close in on distance. Yeah. He's very athletic, y'all
1:19:29
And I'm not saying it because, hey, he's in the fifth round with this
1:19:33
but what I'm getting at is that I would not be mad if the Cowboys
1:19:37
Oh, my goodness. Let's go, man. It is you. Let's go. Look up his tape
1:19:45
Look up his tape. Just type in his highlights on TikTok or something. You'd be like, yeah, that boy good
1:19:51
All right. Let's see where we're at now. We are in the second or the fifth round
1:19:59
Yeah, you got to drive his feet. I'm going to go by DBs now
1:20:07
Let's see where we're at now. And let me know if the presser starts
1:20:11
Come on. They late. Cowboys.com late. They late. Here's the D. They must have got, you know, something going on over there
1:20:22
Breaking news. Michael Parsons signed a contract. Okay. All right. Elijah Huzzy
1:20:30
Quincy Riley is still there, y'all. Let me see what they got with Elijah
1:20:35
Appreciate you. I'm going to flip off of this. How are you going to be in a scout yst and says
1:20:43
hey, he doesn't have long speed to hold up wide receivers. I don't want that
1:20:48
I don't want no Andrew Booth out there. I'll go with Quincy Riley, though
1:20:54
They're going to give me a bad grade on this one, but that's okay. Okay
1:21:06
They gave me a bad grade on Quincy Carter. Okay. But y'all see it right here
1:21:11
They gave me an average. Look, this is the safest draft possible
1:21:15
and with that being said I appreciate y'all for that for taking this journey

1:30:02
I'm trying to stall a little bit. Yeah. Let me see if I can get this going
1:30:09
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And if you ever seen somebody driving like this, you know, and you don't know where they
1:30:18
going and, you know, they high speed chasing, they racing to a location, right
1:30:25
and you trying to say to yourself, I'm just trying to get out the way, right
1:30:30
And this person runs you over and you're looking for some consequences to be bestowed upon him
1:30:37
You got to call these. It starts from the first phone call. Most of the time you're going to talk to Gene Burkett, a 30 year partner
1:30:44
You're not going to talk to some employee that just got put on the phones that day
1:30:50
There are things that are so crucial, especially if it's a cataclysmic event, to have our experts get out and look at the vehicle, witness statements, photos, the whole thing
1:31:01
Call Frankel first. Chosen by the people, feared by the insurance companies
1:31:06
Call Frankel first. That's 214 or 817. And all of the threes, you can dial
1:31:15
Yeah. Dre Matty, it may be a simulator. It may not. Uh-oh, I take you back
1:31:22
I forget that call in the fall. Hold on. My bad, y'all. Jerry, I see you, baby
1:31:29
Well, I will start. I bet everybody in here could chime in
1:31:33
But, David, we really just want to share. And this is a significant time for us
1:31:43
And this visit with the media and you is a big time
1:31:47
We just want to share our respect and appreciation for five decades of putting up with me
1:31:57
Putting up with me. I think you came before. Yes, and I'm sitting up here noodling
1:32:05
David wrote a masterpiece on my noodling. So we're getting that down real good right here
1:32:11
But you've gone from here to there. but seriously David as far as even handed
1:32:20
a very balanced but accurate look at anything that I've been involved in and the Cowboys
1:32:31
have been involved in through my view over the years agree with everything you've written of course not
1:32:37
at all but have just always appreciated the effort on your part to balance it out
1:32:45
And they have a place for guys like you, really, in the history of the Cowboys
1:32:51
Blackie Sherrod, Randy Galloway, people like that. Knew Blackie back as far as back as when I played at Arkansas
1:33:02
I hadn't met him back that far. And so you're right there with them
1:33:08
If I thought about my time with you, as it turns out, we have spent a lot of time over the years
1:33:15
But it's been very, very, very special. My coach, Frank Brawles at Arkansas, once was talking to me, and he said
1:33:27
Jones, I've recruited and have two genius IQs that have played for me
1:33:35
Jimmy Johnson, and you're sure as hell not one of them. Barry Switzer well Clarence you sure as hell aren't in the same league this guy sitting right
1:33:45
wow David I don't want to make this any more than than it needs to be to recognize how much you have
1:33:55
meant to sports which I've always considered to be a part with you as a brother in that respect
1:34:02
but certainly to the extent it's been impacted the Dallas Cowboys and our great fans we thank you
1:34:08
and regret that you decided to hang them up. But congratulations on a great career from our percentage
1:34:24
Can I have a response? And we always start with you. I don't know if you remember, I was in the introductory press conference at Valley Ranch
1:34:36
on that Saturday evening, a momentous one. I remember it ended in thinking
1:34:43
that guy's a wild ride. I'm going to enjoy this because certainly once PR professionals get ahead of him
1:34:51
he's going to be more polished, he's going to be more, you know, a little less forthcoming, be a little more buttoned up in these press conferences
1:34:58
Thank you for ignoring their advice. Be careful, I've still got some microphone here
1:35:06
Well, I could have never dreamed when I hope that we can find pictures that would reflect you in there with that group at the time
1:35:17
But what's so crazy is I can remember detail of that better than I can remember yesterday
1:35:25
And it's just amazing how that had evolved. And, of course, I wouldn't have had any idea
1:35:31
I remember Stephen and my family and everybody sitting in there at that time
1:35:35
and I had seen Coach Landry earlier in the day. And, of course, without a question, one of the PR at Hill Nolton
1:35:48
one of the best in the country, biggest troubleshooter ever, had represented Pierre Salinger, some of the great people at all
1:35:54
He was my advisor, brought him in. And then I had one of the best PR advisors that you can have
1:36:02
in this immediate Dallas, Texas area. Yeah. and Mr. Bright said, Jerry, you should let me make the change for Coach Landry
1:36:12
You should do that. That's not fair to anybody, and I should do it
1:36:17
And my PR and everybody said, no, he's not going to be here because you're coming
1:36:24
And be a man, step up there and take it on the chin, and step up there and go do it
1:36:30
One of the greatest PR disasters that's ever happened. I can't imagine at that time
1:36:36
Still living with it. Still living with it at that time. But those are a lot of things to talk about again
1:36:44
Is there anybody else in here that was at that press conference? Was Dave
1:36:49
Just a little bit. Under the player. Sure is. On the camera's back
1:36:55
Mickey doesn't count. He's been around. But, David, again, thank you
1:37:05
Looking forward to the time when we can sit down there and go over some of these old stories
1:37:13
and you can get your real truth from me at that time. Okay
1:37:18
But guys, okay. All right. We'll start out with the first question from David Moore
1:37:22
David Moore. Do you all hear audio good In your discussions leading up you sitting at 12 here What does it look like there going to be a cluster of three four five players you be happy with
1:37:36
and how does that have ramifications as far as your willingness to potentially move back when you're on the clock
1:37:43
I think, may, I'd like for Will to speak to it. Don't give away the secrets, though
1:37:51
I'm going to invite you all back here after this to shoot a shot of the board. but but seriously seriously and uh uh well uh i like well if you don't mind i'd like to include
1:38:06
will here in terms of of um generally where you think the board is relative to the players
1:38:12
you know i think you know every draft is different so we're going to have a certain
1:38:17
number of players that we consider as first round players um and those guys that will come into
1:38:22
contention whether we move back or not that will depend on the depth of the draft you know how we
1:38:28
graded those players and the decision from the decision makers the uh the thing that i've noticed
1:38:36
the most when put the board up really haven't but it's going up quick and it trust me all the bones
1:38:44
are there and ready to stick up there but still uh it has impressed me with the depth that there
1:38:51
is in some of these positions and we're not just thinking that because uh uh they're at that 12
1:38:56
spot uh but uh we have no idea that michael parsons would drop down there to us when he did
1:39:04
and so it do happen and we certainly are not going to knowingly let a great player run through us
1:39:13
for strategy or for trades up or down but it's a big deal i think it's a bigger deal today
1:39:21
They draft players playing immediately. It's a challenge on coach that players are coming in
1:39:28
and you're counting on them immediately. And that's part of the game today is a lot of young players out there
1:39:36
Clarence Hill, DLS Cowboys, speaking of here our nightmares and trading great players, how have you taken in the Luka trade
1:39:45
and how that's transpired the last few weeks? Well, I'm a fan of the Mavericks, big fan of the Mavericks, and consequently a big fan of Luca
1:39:59
The world knows that I've got my hands full thinking about what we think about over here, much less trying to figure out
1:40:07
I look at the Mavericks through very much entertainment eye. and I know Luca was a personal friend and watched a lot of games with us
1:40:19
and would hope that he would be able to watch some more games with us as we go along
1:40:25
know his family pretty well and his support staff pretty well. So all of that is just one as a fan
1:40:33
Now, Gene was all-state, scored 17 straight free throws in the state championship game
1:40:42
and Gene lives and dies with that basketball and just cried when Luka left
1:40:49
But I understand that, and I understand, frankly, you say, how could that happen
1:40:56
I've got a little bit probably better understanding how something like that can happen
1:41:01
Regarding the draft, what is your goal for the 12th pick? You said you have put the board up
1:41:07
Do you want an instant impact player? You don't want to target a position
1:41:13
I obviously want BPA, but do you feel that you can get a guy that can be an instant impact player at 12th
1:41:20
Yes. Period. Regarding the first round, how many first round picks have you haven't even got that far
1:41:29
How many first round challenges are in this draft? We haven't gotten to the number yet, but typically every year it's somewhere around on our board
1:41:36
it's somewhere around 15 to 18. We'll see how that falls out this year
1:41:41
Yo, yo, yo. I taught her through the SPF, Stephen, Jerry, and Will
1:41:45
When you have a new coaching staff and new assistants that haven't been part of your process, how do you go about, do they get more leeway or more vision from you guys on what they're thinking
1:41:55
or do they have to earn their stripes at all through the process
1:41:59
to understand how you guys work it when they come in during the process
1:42:05
Yeah, I think at the end of the day, one of the things that has been a big contributor to our success
1:42:13
is the communications that we've had with any staff, whether it was Mike McCarthy's, whether it was Jason Garrett's
1:42:21
Now, whether it's Coach Shottie's, is the communication we have with the scouting department, with Jerry, with myself
1:42:29
in terms of giving a vision of whether it's what Shottie and his offensive staff want
1:42:37
whether it's what Shottie and Iberflus and the defensive staff want, getting a vision for the type of players that are going to enable us to have success on the field
1:42:47
and what type of player we're looking for. And that does vary. It actually gives, you know, one of the things that gave Jerry great pause is the fact that we're looking at three different defensive coordinators in three years
1:43:01
And even though they run certain things that are similar, there are things that are different
1:43:07
And when they're different, then that requires maybe a little different type of talent that you might be looking for in Dan Quinn's scheme versus Iberflush's schemes
1:43:18
But if you communicate that and communicate it well, you can certainly work through that
1:43:24
and you certainly know what you're looking for in the draft. Hats off to the scouting department
1:43:29
Hats off to Coach Shottie and his coaching staff in terms of the communication that's gone on with Jerry and myself
1:43:38
Will, and the scouting department so we can have that vision for what we should be picking
1:43:42
or what we should be looking for in a player when we get ready to draft a player
1:43:48
One of the real advantages that I saw and we all saw, Shadi knows our team
1:43:56
He knows it as well as any coach could have known it other than Mike
1:44:02
And that was big, and that is big. And so we're getting the benefit of those new coaches sitting in very
1:44:10
He's encouraged them to really be active in the process. and they were active well with you on the road going to workouts, certainly at the combines
1:44:22
But Shadi has got them really not only fired up, but really talking the talk
1:44:37
And actually been great in the draft. I've seen a lot of things that might work, might not work
1:44:44
Those kinds of things. It is a it is a great thing to have a makeup of that much input
1:44:50
And probably have we ever come in here at this time and not had the board done
1:44:54
I don think we have You might not have the timing of being in here But one of the reasons that board not up until today is because this has been a longer to me process
1:45:06
But these coaches that Shottie've got, they're ready to gnaw through the wall
1:45:10
They're ready to roll. I mean, they're really excited, and Shottie's encouraging them to
1:45:14
And, boy, you're seeing a lot of different ways to look at a player
1:45:19
And that should be very helpful to us, not just because these guys are going to be coaching them
1:45:26
because you're trying to get the right kind of player out there. There's never been, ever, since I've owned this team, a draft pick that I didn't in any way really get the input
1:45:42
from who it is that would help solve the problem. No way
1:45:49
I look that well. Boy, when we're getting ready to pick, I'll look at him
1:45:53
and if he even blinks, I'll look what he's blinking about when we're getting ready to pick
1:45:58
and I'll measure shoddy, or I'll be looking back there at flu at this particular time
1:46:03
and looking for body language, looking for conviction, looking for that kind of thing
1:46:08
Now, that's on top of the arduous process of evaluating them by standards that are really we're in agreement so much
1:46:18
We're one of the best drafting teams in the NFL. I'll say that. We are. And that's because of the hard work that goes on to get there, and it's because of, in my mind, the process we use to make the decisions
1:46:31
I do not make the decision about that player. That's been made cumulatively, and it's been made cumulatively here and there
1:46:39
And I'm a tiebreaker maybe, but I hope to hell that I'm sitting there listening to all of this
1:46:46
sitting on all the meetings, been in all the stuff, and I hope that we come up with the very best decision
1:46:53
Not to mean that you can't water one down to complete homogynation if you wanted to
1:47:00
and you could literally get so much opinion that it would go and it'd be totally homogenized
1:47:05
and so you wouldn't you'd be hard to find uh maybe the edge that you're looking for right there
1:47:13
but that's the process that we go through there and by the way i don't mind telling you now if
1:47:18
somebody comes up and starts coming out of my mouth right about the time we're getting ready to
1:47:23
pick, and it's an errant idea or an errant thing, don't you think it isn't all hell to
1:47:31
pay now. Nobody around here is afraid to really step up here and say, wait a minute, wait a minute
1:47:38
Let's look at this real good. And Shottie's already shown me. I sit beside him, and he's already shown me he'll work my ass over
1:47:49
Brad, how much do you want to get speed, more speed on your offense
1:47:54
It's always something you look at. Todd, at the end of the day, this is an exciting time of year
1:47:59
Speed in this league is important. It's not the only way to do it. The one thing about speed it gives you is it gives you something you don't have to coach
1:48:07
And so the way we're going to play and the style that we're going to play speed is an advantage
1:48:12
but it's not the only thing that we look at. And, again, to speak to what Jerry and Steven and really Will were talking about
1:48:19
I've just thoroughly enjoyed the process, the conversations, the disagreements, quite honestly
1:48:25
And then watching the conviction when you ultimately put the final grade on a player
1:48:30
has been awesome. I feel really good heading into Thursday night. John
1:48:38
Jerry, there's been some of your 30-year visitors have talked about you
1:48:42
having their mothers, getting them on the phone. Why have you done that
1:48:47
Maybe if you could share a story of something that's come from that. Well, it principally is for the moms and the dads
1:48:56
And I like to see the interplay between the player and his dad or his mom
1:49:06
I like to see that. I like to see it come back and forth. I think I can get a little read for their influence when you have it there
1:49:15
One player I came in, his dad is a serious coach. And, boy, I'm telling you, when I brought up, I hope he understands he's going to have to work harder than he ever has in his life
1:49:28
He just, boy, he had that look on the face. He will work harder than he's ever worked in his life
1:49:32
He had that kind of comeback to it. It's great to see that
1:49:37
Y'all crazy. Importantly, it is great to be able to tell those wonderful parents, especially those single moms
1:49:45
it is wonderful to tell them how great they are to have had a child that's sitting here getting to go through this process
1:49:55
and getting to have this kind of scrutiny and still sitting here available and in play
1:50:02
Thank you, Mama, and congratulations to you. You've done a magnificent job
1:50:07
That's the principal reason right there. And I know that the players, it means a lot to them too
1:50:16
It's a big deal for me. Got single moms. This is for Will
1:50:22
Usually you get a first-year coach with a little bit of a transition of understanding what he wants, but Shadi's been here a couple of years
1:50:28
So has that transition been a little quicker, smoother for you this go-around? Yeah, it's been quicker because Shadi knows what he wants
1:50:34
and explains it very clearly. He understands our process. He's testing the conviction and bringing his points out in it
1:50:42
So it's been a seamless sort of process. And, you know, when you talk about our process and talking with the scouts the other day, we're the wholesalers
1:50:49
We know where the fruit are. We're the wholesalers. We're saying what they can do. We're giving it to the coaches. The coaches make up the recipe and then they own the restaurant
1:50:56
So it's how we all work together. We're trying to get this thing the right way. And there's the consistent way that we do it
1:51:02
And then Shadi saying the little ingredients that they want that are a little bit different than this staff or that staff
1:51:08
It's the communication and then us drilling down to try and find those things that make the little bit of difference
1:51:15
Quick one for Shadi. As an assistant coach for a long time, how did you observe the head coaches and say
1:51:22
okay, when I get my shot, I won't do this or I might do that in terms of the draft process
1:51:28
Yeah, I think the biggest thing is just to be open and honest. to create a format, which we certainly have done
1:51:36
where there was open dialogue and there was great communication. At the end of the day, you want conviction
1:51:42
That's what you want. You want when you decide, hey, this is the player we're going to select
1:51:46
you want to be convicted by what's the vision for the player. That's part of our responsibility as a staff to answer some of those questions
1:51:56
But at the end of the day, the systems on both sides of the ball
1:52:00
and special teams will be flexible enough to adjust. And at the end of the day, when we line up to play our first game
1:52:05
there's going to be 11 players out there, and whoever the best players are are going to be the ones that play
1:52:11
Nick Harris, Forward Start Telegram. This is for anyone on the board. I know you guys want to be in a position where you can take best player available at 12
1:52:19
How much do you factor in need on this team when it comes to these premium picks
1:52:23
or are you trying your best to stick to the board in this first round Yeah I think at the end of the day you are trying to pick the best player on the board Now if it up there and you got guys who are you know equally graded for the most part
1:52:37
then obviously you might lean into a position where, hey, we could use a little more help there
1:52:44
and we're pretty strong over here, so let's lean in over here and take that player
1:52:49
But what you don't want to see yourself doing is, you know, picking a player who's quite a bit down the line, you know, around down
1:52:57
and trying to take that player over a guy that you've got situated
1:53:01
You know, in particular, let's use the 12th pick. You know, we've got first-round grades on players on our board
1:53:08
You want to take that player. And, you know, at the end of the day, those things work themselves out
1:53:14
I mean, we never went into that draft, Micah's draft, thinking we were going to pick Micah in a pass rusher slash linebacker
1:53:21
The year we picked C.D., we were thinking we were going pass rusher all the way
1:53:25
and we end up with a receiver. And, you know, great things happen when you do things like that
1:53:31
And, you know, we were just having that conversation the other day about, you know
1:53:36
you've just got to stay true to where these grades are and what these players are
1:53:42
Are we the only team that do this? In this league, players, you know, they rotate through
1:53:47
And if you've got young guys coming, it allows you to maybe put resources
1:53:52
rather than keeping a guy that you can put with somebody else, that enables your team to be better
1:53:57
All you can eat were a salad buffet. There's a lot of players in this draft class that have athletic traits, physical traits
1:54:06
but then there's questions about production with some. How do you value traits versus actual production from the college level
1:54:12
Well, it's the traits that actually give you the chance to project. We got Stephon Gilmore at the start, baby
1:54:18
Change of direction, things like that. You try not to get too caught up in just the numbers
1:54:25
The numbers are what they are in terms of 40 times. Stephon Gilmore, breaking news
1:54:29
The game to this day is still the best thing. He's at the start. In my opinion, when you're studying a player
1:54:34
And then the one thing you didn't mention was the person. You know, we're looking for those world-class competitors
1:54:39
the guys who are coming in and want to work hard. They're passionate about what they do
1:54:42
So it really is a puzzle that you're trying to fit together
1:54:46
and to me traits are one of the pieces of the puzzle that you're trying to figure out
1:54:51
Patrick. You guys are Patrick of Bulk of DallasCowboys.com. Questions more so for Stephen
1:54:57
Come on, Gilly. Gilly lock. When you're looking at BPA versus D, if you're looking at a situation where, let's say hypothetically
1:55:07
there are two or three wide receivers who can instantly make an impact, but they have different archetypes for the most part
1:55:12
At what point do you start having a discussion about current personnel as far as being able to slide that scale forward towards
1:55:19
Maybe you decide them, though. How did that discussion come along in the world? That long-ass question
1:55:23
I think I hit on it a little. I just think it matters on the variations
1:55:28
You know, what is the difference? You know, if we've got to use our terms
1:55:32
if we've got a player with a 1-1-4 and a player with a 1-1-5
1:55:36
now that's really close. And, you know, in terms of, you know, picking a player
1:55:42
who maybe scratches an itch, if you will, in terms of picking a player that's going to fit a knee
1:55:48
He's a mendo. You might have a tenth of a point. In the big scheme of things, that's not a big deal
1:55:54
But if you're picking a guy who's got a 1-2-4 over a 1-1-4
1:55:58
then to me that's when mistakes are made. And you're ending up getting a player that you felt like was a second-round player
1:56:05
versus getting a player you could have taken that's a first-round player
1:56:10
That'd be my take. I'm old enough to remember the last time we had an exciting quarterback called the Cowboys when they came up
1:56:21
Have you guys thought through that scenario if there was an exciting quarterback like St. Jackson Dart or Shador Sanders there at 12
1:56:28
Yeah, well, we've got a major commitment with that. And so you weigh all of that
1:56:36
But I was going to add to this whole conversation. it's very often that somebody will step up and say
1:56:44
we got this guy right here, we got him and we just signed him under contract
1:56:49
but guess what, guys get hurt so you bet your whole house that you got him
1:56:56
and then all of a sudden you don't have him so that's when your old mind starts saying
1:57:01
if his dad did get hurt, what would we do this year
1:57:06
there you go there you there you go but don't what's your point all i'm saying is that you
1:57:14
you have to figure you have to figure that rather than say we've got him we don't have that need
1:57:23
you have to figure that there's some injury to be now how important is that player
1:57:29
as opposed to the one you're looking at on the board and could he feel that need right there i
1:57:35
do that. I really do. And so if we've got depth and that guy gets hurt, that's one thing
1:57:42
If you're left out in the cold for right now and you need that, that's another thing
1:57:49
Son. Son used to be a plug. Steven, you guys obviously have a need of quarterback with Trevon
1:57:55
Recovering, we just asked Stephon Gilmore walk out the building. What can you think about this
1:58:01
Well, we always are looking to make our roster better is what I'd say about any player
1:58:07
Just like anything. Obviously, we did some work in the agency via a trade with Elam
1:58:14
And certainly we're fired up about Carson coming back off an injury that really limited to him
1:58:20
after he had that after the first three or four games. So we do feel like we've got some good corners
1:58:27
But, you know, we're always looking to make things better. Now, we have players who we'd like to think love to come back and say hi
1:58:36
And it doesn't always mean because they're in the building that, you know, there's a deal in the works
1:58:42
But I think in general, you've been assigned acquisition always say it's your round
1:58:47
And we're always looking to get better. And if we see that opportunity, then we'll do it
1:58:52
Obviously, there's a big focus on the draft right now. but it doesn't rule out that we're not looking at trades
1:58:59
or still looking at signing other players. Hush your mouth! Will, a lot of the players coming out right now
1:59:06
Take the money out! They're right in the middle of high school. I'm curious, what are you seeing in your conversations, your evaluations
1:59:14
how maybe them going through that time has kind of shaped them differently
1:59:19
than a lot of other players in the past? I think the environment of college football has changed in general
1:59:24
You know, you throw the COVID year in there and then, you know, there are some players that are in this draft that are 24 years old, 25 years old
1:59:32
And it kind of changes the environment that we basically the premise that we start and do in this business is you're looking for guys
1:59:40
It changes the conditions. NIL, there's guys that go to three different schools, all of that
1:59:45
It changes the environment. We have to adjust with that to try and get the right information, make sure we know who they are
1:59:51
or take all those things into consideration. It changes the puzzle a little bit
1:59:58
Kyle. Kyle Young and Stella. The first one for coach and then a follow-up for Willie, but sticking with corners and cornerbacks
2:00:06
in the past there's been plenty of significant influence from coaching staffs and defensive staffs
2:00:12
when looking at cornerback prospects. How do you guys view some of the measurables when you evaluate some of these corners
2:00:18
Yeah, I think there's certainly measurables. You want length, you want size, you want the ability to play press man-to-man
2:00:24
The big thing for us defensively is, if Flew says it this way, there's no house guests
2:00:29
so everybody's got to be willing to tackle and support the run. Come on with it
2:00:33
Tackle. But, again, they come in all shapes and sizes, man. And, again, a guy that's maybe a little bit, you know, shorter, a guy that's a little bit faster
2:00:43
Again, if they have the right play style, if they have the right temperament, and we see some of those things in that regard to play style, the physicality, the ability to, you know
2:00:52
we're always looking for ball skills, you know. We call it ball production. If you find ways to play Tom, it's going to be a good thing for your team
2:01:00
Toxic Tom, you're crazy. Will and his staff did an incredible job with that
2:01:04
So it was very seamless for us from a coaching staff to be able to speak to Jerry and Steven and Will and his staff
2:01:09
because they did such a great job of kind of setting the table. I'll say it this way
2:01:13
I mean, honestly, the scouts are the experts. Like, these are the guys at 365, 24-7
2:01:20
They are on the road. They are working. They know these guys better than anybody else
2:01:23
And then what's been great for us is the communication process of what we want from the system or the players that fit into the system
2:01:31
That's where it's been such a cool, cool conversations. And will forward defensive coordinators since the start of 2020, how much of the challenge is that based on you and your staff to get that right and have those conversations back and forth and make sure that the owners of the restaurant that you talked about earlier are all on the same thing
2:01:49
I think ultimately we have to know the value and be consistent with the value of players, right
2:01:54
We've got to value them the same way year after year, not depending upon the strength or the weakness of the draft so that you have a standard that you abide by
2:02:02
So when we say a first-round corner, we all know what a first-round corner is
2:02:07
There are certain measurables and things that you look at because that's what plays in the league
2:02:11
and that's what's had the most success. We look at all that information, and then as Shadi says, we've got to dig into the people
2:02:17
The biggest mistakes are made when it's the people that you get. It's what are you putting them into and who's communicating with them
2:02:24
So a big part of what we're doing is understanding the coaches, what we're trying to do
2:02:27
and then get to know the players and try and figure out the fit as well as the ability
2:02:33
So with the input of the coaches and our whole staff and the scouts doing that
2:02:37
we're trying to get to know the players as well. Right. Joe
2:02:42
Joe Trahan, WFAA TV. Jerry, this is for you. Steve was talking before about that CD draft from Big Ten, the Micah draft from Big Ten
2:02:52
Did they fix the seatbelt recall? Once the draft goes live and you're waiting to see how you have to read it
2:02:57
Y'all crazy. Posey. As players come off the board. Yeah. I think to me, as they come off
2:03:11
This is Jerry. I'm just focusing on what happens when he gets there
2:03:21
Okay? Okay. If as they're coming off, I don't like there, then I'm saying, boys, is that phone ringing
2:03:30
And by the way, you've heard me say this a thousand times. Picking up the phone and calling will not do the job
2:03:37
The phone has to be ringing. What if I'm not hearing that phone ringing
2:03:41
You better be on the phone. And it's not ringing. Then you start really looking at your alternatives
2:03:48
We traded that. Micah's perfect. Micah is perfect. We get there. Boy, they're one of the top ones
2:03:55
But we had right below. You've heard this story a million times
2:03:59
We traded down and didn't take Micah then. Because we got something there and we still had two
2:04:06
Well, then the rest of them went. And there you got Micah
2:04:11
That is the classic exercise right there. You got looking at it, playing it
2:04:17
Didn't exactly work right for us, but we ended up getting a top player after all
2:04:23
And so the big thing, I think Will hit it the very best of all the mistakes
2:04:31
which is the hardest thing to evaluate is the player person. and their desire, what's inside them
2:04:43
And, I mean, you just can't substitute for somebody that has got talent plus that
2:04:51
And so there's a whole lot of time spent around here looking for what's inside these guys and should be
2:04:57
And that's something we look at real good. This bunch was hot, hot, hot about what was inside Martin when he was drunk
2:05:07
what was inside him. What was inside of him? We were talking about what was inside of Tyron Smith
2:05:12
What's inside of him? What was inside him? What had gotten back from him? And that's when we've really done the best
2:05:18
Hey, why are you saying it that way? What's inside him? You talk a lot of times about not reaching
2:05:24
when you have players that are similar. But my question is this
2:05:28
because you've said this a lot through the years, have you done enough in free agency
2:05:32
to make sure that you can be clean in this year's draft
2:05:36
and not have to reach for a D even in the later round
2:05:40
Yeah, I think that's what I was mentioning at corner with Elon
2:05:45
I think we did overall a much better job than, let's say, last year
2:05:50
of really doing quite a bit of volume in terms of really improving our roster
2:05:57
and giving us the opportunity and having an environment where we can pick the best players
2:06:05
Meaty heads. Y'all are crazy. I think our work we did in free agency is going to really pay off
2:06:10
I think it's going to make us a deeper football team one way or the other
2:06:15
One way or another. Stop watching law. Should, you know, just make us better and increase the depth that we have
2:06:24
And, you know, most of the time, 99% of the time, that's our goal in free agency
2:06:31
Not necessarily to go out. He did the air quotes, baby. We signed one
2:06:37
He was our own, Osa, to a big deal. But that's the way we look at free agency
2:06:43
And historically, we've had a lot of success in getting those guys
2:06:50
which I think in turn has led, as Jerry mentioned, it's just if you look at the number of starters you've gotten
2:06:58
the number of pro bowlers, the number of all-pro guys, we've drafted at a high level
2:07:03
He's talking like this, though. John. Over the last, I don't know, eight, ten years, we've seen a number of contract holdouts later in training camps
2:07:16
and sort of disrupt the start of the season in terms of chemistry. What gives you confidence that that won't be the case for Mike Parsons this year for Jerry and Stephen
2:07:25
Nothing Nothing That not the right answer That the answer you looking for But the facts are the contracts are clear what happens But you do have holdouts
2:07:42
and it's a plus that was bargained. It goes on between the players and the teams
2:07:54
And I know you don't need that kind of history lesson, but my point is we had it with Martin
2:08:02
Martin. And Martin held out. Ain't no T in that name. One way to look at it was we got him
2:08:08
and we had a hell of a year with Martin. on that one year
2:08:12
Sure. We also spent $8 million that we'd love to have the next year
2:08:16
to go get another player extra. No, I think that inherently happens when you're negotiating with great players
2:08:25
I mean, you can find examples all over the league. San Francisco with Bosa, I don't think he came in until two days
2:08:30
before the first game. I think they had a hell of a playoff run
2:08:35
So, you know, everybody wants to look for reasons, and we're always critiquing ourselves as to why we didn't have a good season
2:08:44
And I know one of the things that come up other than injuries is the fact that
2:08:48
although Dak never missed a practice, he never missed anything that he was required to be at
2:08:55
the flip side of that is CD did. And so that becomes an issue
2:09:01
But I don't think it is. I just think it inherently comes with the territory
2:09:07
I mean, you look around the league and most of these players who are getting these very top contracts
2:09:14
it does take time to ultimately get there. And believe me, if we could sign Micah to a number we wanted to sign him to
2:09:22
but right now there's a difference in what we feel like is the right number
2:09:28
and what he feels like is the right number. Follow-up to that, I mean, there's a perception that it's just the team is dragging its feet on these contractions
2:09:37
Yeah. Whereas agents have to play a role in this too. And have you encountered this over the years where maybe agents are slow in wanting to
2:09:46
make a deal because they want to see the market keep getting reset so they can get their player
2:09:51
the maximum amount? Because there are two sides to this negotiation. So I'm just curious what we're not really seeing behind those talks
2:09:59
I think you're right on it. I mean, that's exactly what happens. And a lot of times representatives of these players do want to wait
2:10:07
And they think the longer they wait, the market goes up. And, you know, I will say this
2:10:12
A lot of times we want to not do a player a year earlier because we want to make sure
2:10:18
because you only get to choose a handful of guys that are going to make these big, big numbers
2:10:24
I mean, there's maybe as much as a half a dozen guys max that can really make an inordinate amount of money
2:10:33
And you want to make sure, if you're limited to five or six of these guys, that you pick the right five or six in terms of who you choose
2:10:42
And at the same time, the representatives want to wait and make sure he gets the optimal amount of money that he can get for the players
2:10:50
So, you know, it's just not perfect, but it's part of it
2:10:55
And there's a lot of teams that have players that wait until the bitter end to sign
2:10:58
that go on and have a great year. And then there's other teams that sign a player late
2:11:03
and maybe don't have the type of year they had hoped to have. The reason that I don't like to, on certain situations, certain contracts
2:11:15
that I don't like to deal with the agent, by the way, I don't necessarily deal directly with attorneys when I've done things over my life
2:11:26
I've dealt with the principal, not with the attorney. It's not demeaning
2:11:31
You know they have excellent advice. But many, many times I've gone straight there
2:11:38
We had a great player here, Des Bryant. We had a major negotiation set up with his agent
2:11:49
Jay-Z. We met Jay-Z in New York. Jay-Z! We started at 11 at night
2:11:56
At night. We finished about 5 in the morning. Jay-Z had his advisors
2:12:02
Talking about Dez. We sat there, had one of the greatest. I'll tell you right now, Jay-Z is one of the most first-class people I've ever been around
2:12:10
And I mean he's got his act together. He was putting together excellent people to be represented by Jay-Z. Jay-Z
2:12:20
And those he wanted to have the greatest work habits. He wanted to have the greatest punctuality
2:12:26
And it wasn't just football or basketball. It was actors. And it was people of all walks of life
2:12:34
And what he said was, when you have a meeting, I've never been late for a meeting in my life
2:12:40
Jay-Z. You were late for this meeting? Oh, come on, Jay-Z. And he said, I'm always on time, if not early, with it
2:12:47
if they don't make meetings they won't be in my organization i can tell you that right now
2:12:53
okay if i'm representing him he'll be at all the meetings because you see the agent
2:13:00
is normally about maybe a thousand miles away when they're not there or when you're not getting
2:13:06
some of the things that you work with on a daily basis with the team they're on a ramp
2:13:12
they're there in spirit but they're not there right on it i said jay-z you mean to tell me
2:13:19
that dez will not miss any more meetings yeah dez won he said he will not miss any more meetings i
2:13:26
said can i call you every time he misses meetings that you do what is number can i call you he said
2:13:32
yes sir i'm telling you what it is i said hand me the pen i'm in we're gone let's go i called you
2:13:40
for Dez. Well, Dez missed meetings. And you know I think a lot of Dez
2:13:47
I think a lot of Dez. Why are you sandbagging Dez? He's really a great player and I like him as a person
2:13:54
But I'm going to tell you one thing. Jay-Z wasn't any place to be found when we were having problems with our football team
2:14:00
I like to go to those key players and be with them and have it right there with them
2:14:06
and make sure we were on the same page. Does that sound logical
2:14:11
Okay. That's the way it happens. What's your point? Okay. You've got to follow that up, Joe
2:14:17
Sounds good. Joe Hoy, DLOS Sports. Jerry, you guys have used two of your last three first-round picks on offensive linemen
2:14:23
signed a lot of veteran offensive linemen, but you also had 30 visits with a couple offensive linemen
2:14:27
Long question short, would your previous investments in the offensive line keep you from using high investment in an offensive lineman in this draft
2:14:34
One of the things that when we started this draft process, us with uh we had a coach and we had their offensive and boy are we in great shape one
2:14:44
thing shot he did he did it right when he i said boy we want some attention to that offensive line
2:14:51
and he gets his coordinator that one heck of a expert there and he gets one of the best offensive guys i can tell you how much i appreciate that Team within the team the offensive line And so one of the things that we started meetings off with
2:15:06
was, guys, we've had some of the best offensive lines around Dak known to man
2:15:12
And we've also had some pretty good running backs around him too, around the same deal
2:15:18
Can you put that kind of resources in your offensive line? and can we get up there playing around the rim so that we can get one of these things
2:15:27
Let's go play some basketball then. Let's go play some basketball. We've been with Larry Allen
2:15:31
We got one when he was a rookie. Other than that, we didn't get one
2:15:36
Okay. Zach, we didn't get one. Okay. So it doesn't automatically work
2:15:42
Okay. But generally when you step back and look at it, We've had some pretty good teams around where Daddy drafted offensive line with a lot of ones
2:15:52
Obviously, when those guys get ready to come up, if they're that kind of player
2:15:56
then you're going to have a lot of resources invested in that offensive line out there with it
2:16:01
Did it pay off? Well, it's done a pretty good job for Dak. Did a good job for the running backs that were around him pretty good there
2:16:08
So if you've got something to look at, we won't necessarily eliminate
2:16:13
because we've got the resources we have in the offensive line. this weekend we won't eliminate that because of that experience we've had
2:16:22
some success with loading it up with top picks now offensive line
2:16:28
well a couple teams have kind of abandoned using 30 visits I know you're
2:16:31
kind of touching this a little bit but what is the overall thing you're looking for for 30 visits and the strategy behind having 30 visits? It's getting to know the
2:16:39
players right it's getting them in front of us it's some guys have to see the
2:16:44
doctor, they don't have medical stuff, so there's a process that we go through
2:16:48
with those guys, but it's getting to know them. That's one opportunity
2:16:52
We have formals and informals at the combine. We can Zoom them. We have a number of different ways, and we use all those to our disposal
2:17:00
to learn about the players. 30 visits is just another opportunity to
2:17:04
get them in front of us and do some of our side things that we do with them
2:17:09
Pat? Pat Domi, NBCDFW. Friday was going to ask, with your potential interest in emphasizing the running game in this offense
2:17:18
how much do you think the runner matters? The running back position has gone up and down in value, but how it's perceived for you personally
2:17:25
how much do you think the running back matters in your offensive system? I think the runners, they matter
2:17:31
It's one of the aspects. Running backs matters. RB matters. I've done it a lot of different ways in my career
2:17:38
Put that in the tent. whether it's a guy that's seen as the bell cow
2:17:43
I think this is an incredibly deep draft at running back. You can find guys that, again, when you're watching them on film
2:17:50
you see the traits and the things that you like. You can have a vision for them, what they would look like fitting into our scheme
2:17:56
that Clayton and the staff are going to put together. But, again, I think it's a position like others where it's not just the player
2:18:07
it's the talent, all those things. but it's also the person, the wiring. You're hearing us say that across the board here
2:18:13
The person matters. The football character, the love of the game, those things matter
2:18:18
And I think there's a number of those guys at that position in this draft that we're excited about
2:18:22
Building upon that for Jerry, we've seen you take Ezekiel Nellian really high in the draft
2:18:27
and we've seen this team not emphasize the running back. Seeing somebody like Saquon Barkley and what he did for Philadelphia last year
2:18:34
has your thought about the running back position changed? from what it might have been
2:18:40
Well, St. Glenn and Philadelphia got your attention. There's no question about it
2:18:44
Be dead if you're doing what we do and not see that happen
2:18:49
I don't think that running back was as significant last year in us not getting where we want to go as you do and maybe others
2:19:01
I don't. I think it was our offensive line that was the bigger impact
2:19:06
of the running back situation. Now you say well but still You had an opportunity
2:19:13
To get those kinds of running backs I would say that That got my attention
2:19:20
I would say Now we hit on a Murray in the fourth round
2:19:25
Here a few years back And he was a doggone good running back Look at that offensive line he had in front of him
2:19:30
Think about it Think about it Look at that offensive line Oh we drafted offensive line baby
2:19:36
Oh my god Where's Cowboys sports at? Where's Louie? We draft an offensive line, man
2:19:42
It hurt us a little bit to lose Dak early, and you all know that's condescending
2:19:47
As far as the running game was concerned. That didn't help, the running game
2:19:52
So this is not excuse time here, but it is appropriate. We draft an offensive line
2:19:57
Because can you cure the running game? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You help
2:20:02
Yeah. In my mind. Yeah. Jared, for all CBS Sports. First, Steve and Jerry and Will, you mentioned having a big commitment to Dak
2:20:10
Talked about having a big commitment to Mike. How much do those contracts impact your willingness or aggressiveness in looking to trade down and acquire more things
2:20:21
Well, I think, you know, obviously it's a big commitment of resources
2:20:26
And part of why it's so important to draft is to complement the high-end part of your roster
2:20:34
from what it takes from a resource standpoint with cap dollars. So it is important to get these draft picks
2:20:42
Now, as it turns out, we've got a good number of draft picks
2:20:45
because we've lost players through free agency. We've pushed some of those picks down with trades, like a Joe Milton
2:20:52
who we felt like, you know, when we looked at the quarterback depth in the draft
2:20:57
and what we could get versus what Joe might bring to the table, we thought that was, you know, a good trade to make
2:21:03
So we pushed some of those picks back, but we still have, you know, 10 picks
2:21:09
So we think we've got a good number of picks. I don't think we would let that dictate to us whether we move back or not
2:21:18
It's going to be who's there and then what we get, not necessarily just to take a trade back to pick up a pick
2:21:25
It's got to be a value trade for us to make that decision
2:21:30
Two experiences that we've had, Emmitt held out, running back. And Emmitt held out, we just won a Super Bowl
2:21:40
And with Emmitt out, and Emmitt wanted more money. And I get it, I get it
2:21:46
Yeah. And we made him, and we wanted to make him the highest paid running back in history of the NFL
2:21:53
but he wanted a quarterback. And I understood him wanting that. Yeah
2:21:59
But we couldn't do it. Why? That was back literally before the cap
2:22:05
So that was just my old back pocket. And you just couldn't do that much and make this thing work
2:22:13
Why? because I had to count on my back pocket and I knew what was in there
2:22:18
So we couldn't do it. So this is pro football and financial has always been here It always been here Now it logically here now so that the reason why that you delay is because you putting those resources to not go to there to go over to where you can have a better team around them
2:22:45
you empty that bottle to get that bottle and you have less around them otherwise uh you would just
2:22:54
say whatever you want and i'm not demeaning anybody here i understand i broke the rules
2:23:00
on wanting to go make a button seriously so i get it i do get it and we all get it around here
2:23:06
now so this stuff of well we're waiting we're waiting it's going to cost you more it's going
2:23:13
to do that more? Have you ever thought that you might read more of the tea leaves if you wait a
2:23:18
year or two? No. What if you had a key injury? What if you have... That's part of the game
2:23:24
What if all of... Well, that's blasphemy. Don't talk about them not being the player you're
2:23:28
thinking about. Look at Steven. Steven like this. That isn't blasphemy. That's something
2:23:33
you have to look at. Frankly, frankly, in my life, I have done better because of the tolerance
2:23:43
for ambiguity that I have running the quarterback all the way out
2:23:47
and deciding whether to pitch or to turn it up himself rather than take the first option and hand it off
2:23:54
And I've done better out at 10. Steve, you like. Have I had a bloodletting out there a few times
2:23:59
Yes, I have. But I've run it out at 10. And that's the reason why you do it
2:24:03
because you're trying to reduce the amount of outgoes so that you have some left to do it again
2:24:09
I know everybody understands it, but it's just real important. If you think for one second that we're letting the player not come in just because we're not sensitive about
2:24:22
well, you might be able to get him for less if you'll put that five-year contract on him earlier
2:24:28
But you also could eat some players that you might wish you didn't put the money on too
2:24:35
Jeff. Jeff Gold, Foxport, Jerry. for you. Going back to the prospect of drafting the quarterback
2:24:43
in the first round against something you haven't done since Troy mentioned
2:24:46
having a major good league with Dak and having to weigh that
2:24:51
I've got it here, Moe Dee. How does the time you spend on first round great quarterbacks and also the possibility of having to have a conversation with Dak
2:24:59
about that pick? How does that impact? Well, the biggest reason is we're
2:25:06
set our we're set in stone now we weren't set in stone for what happened to us last year were we
2:25:12
because he's the highest paid player in the nfl what was it three games later three games later
2:25:18
two games four games four games later we don't have a quarterback there highest paid player in
2:25:24
nfl will it happen can it happen of course it can happen you can happen and i say that again
2:25:30
we are not in the business around here at this time of looking for our future quarterback
2:25:37
By the same token, the fact that we are sitting up here
2:25:42
we have to always be thinking about the future quarterback. And we have to mainly be thinking about what happens if we don't have Dak
2:25:49
Okay. That might impact you here in some way. it's probably not as likely as it would be if you were five years from now or six years from now
2:26:00
as you go on down the road we'll see it's not taking one thing away from or adding to
2:26:06
uh dak we're so proud to have him because we've got one of the best and we gives us a chance to
2:26:12
win this thing and even though we have when we evaluate them all the same every year because
2:26:18
You have to know what's in the league. Well, one of the best things that I think that I've been a part of
2:26:26
was drafting Aikman in the first round and Steve Walsh in the supplemental, same year, first round
2:26:33
He used two first-round picks, had both of them sitting here. Okay
2:26:38
And, of course, that created angst. Nothing for you to really laugh
2:26:42
Steve Walsh, baby! Troy didn't like that at all. Okay? that's a little unfair bringing in the coach's college quarterback to play on the same team
2:26:53
you've just been drafted on. I get it. And admire him for working through that with Jimmy
2:26:59
And that turned out to be good. I got to New York, set up there, Jim Finks
2:27:04
We made a trade of a life on what's his name, and there we go
2:27:12
It turned out. Well, now, you can't read that on the draft room. of something like that turning out
2:27:18
But I'll tell you what, Tex Tram did tell me back when we were talking
2:27:23
after I'd bought the team. One of the best moves he ever made was had three top quarterbacks
2:27:28
out of Los Angeles and traded a couple of them, and they were some of the names of the greatest quarterbacks ever
2:27:33
He said, you can go with having in the same draft, you can go with that in multiple top quarterbacks
2:27:40
That was then, this is now. But I'll tell you, it influenced me
2:27:43
and it was easy to do because Walsh was Johnson's quarterback at Miami
2:27:49
and it was the Shulas who was his coordinator. Shula was the coach of him at Miami
2:27:55
So it was easy for us to do. Man, that happened 40 years ago, man. That's what we were going to do at the time
2:27:59
And we got out. That's 35 years ago, Jerry. And we got multiple on our draft picks
2:28:05
Work. Slap that up. Jerry, I'm wondering if it makes it a little easier this year
2:28:13
to take the best player available if you know that you'll probably need a need
2:28:20
Yes. Yes. Yes. And that's not a different type of thinking, Kevin
2:28:31
at all. Would you say there is any option available for you
2:28:37
or because of that there has been probably over the last four or five years
2:28:42
Excuse me, why? Probably as many options available for you this year
2:28:46
Turn the hearing aid up, man. God, don't. Well, we've got, if you're saying, can I ask you a question about your question
2:28:54
Are you saying we have a few needs? Okay. I thought you were
2:29:00
And yes. In answer to your question, yes. Brad. Brad Sham, Cowboys Radio on 105.3
2:29:07
fans. Ryan, you are in your first year on the job, and you have a number of
2:29:11
staff members that you've hired who are new to the NFL or fairly new to them
2:29:17
How empowered do you think you and these other guys will be standing on the table
2:29:22
on draft day and getting real strong for somebody you believe in
2:29:27
I think knowing these guys for the past couple months, they'll be very comfortable
2:29:32
We hired guys that have conviction, guys that are experts at what they do
2:29:37
whether they coached in college or the NFL, it doesn't matter. The cool thing with a couple of college guys
2:29:43
is they've known some of these draft prospects since they were in high school, 13-, 14-, 15-year-old kids
2:29:50
Junior Adams, Connor Riley, guys like that. But I think Jerry, Stephen, and Will would all say
2:29:56
that these guys have a voice, and they're going to use their voice. Voice for the voices
2:30:02
They're on the line, boy. This is big time. So put it out there
2:30:07
So they know that if they can, in their opinion, do a better job as a coach
2:30:14
So if I were them, I'd be crying, I'd be jumping up and down, I'd be doing..
2:30:19
And I get that. I really do get it. And this is their time to go
2:30:24
This is shoddy. If Shottie's ever wanted a pick and felt like choking somebody or doing anything
2:30:30
this is probably going to be his highest motivated moment. Sydney. Sydney Stingles, D210 Sports
2:30:39
First question for Jerry. What should a fan be really excited for coming out of this draft
2:30:46
I think that we should. I would first look at our core
2:30:52
I would look at the core and I'd start with Dak and I would
2:31:00
I would look at Micah I would look at some of the top players
2:31:04
I'm a half full guy not a half empty guy so I would always
2:31:11
start by on that side of the page our pluses and then if your question
2:31:17
is about this draft I would see just as we're going to do it
2:31:22
And that's the way it's going to happen is we're going to put somebody on that draft side that adds to it
2:31:28
That's a plus. Steven said build that roster. And so that if they see the build of the roster, I get a lot of criticism for being as involved as I am
2:31:37
and having the record that I've got for being involved, let's say, about players, draft players and what have you
2:31:44
And I know that there's a lot of criticism there. the alternative to that is you couldn't be more on the incentive plan and the incentive plan has
2:31:55
to do more if it's a mess i live with it okay now you say but your fans live with it jerry
2:32:02
your fans live with it and they do they do uh what i would hope for them is the same thing i'm hoping
2:32:08
from shoddy here he is 20 something years in the nfl how damn here he is now head coach step out
2:32:18
like that and boy i expect him to be coming out like he was fighting tyson and getting after it
2:32:25
the whole way and i like that kind of stuff i've seen us have success when you're that kind of
2:32:32
motivated and you'll just get into it and put the passion into it and i really do see a lot of
2:32:38
passion around here, starting with this guy sitting right next to me
2:32:42
None of us like to sit here and watch it on TV. Second question is for anybody
2:32:49
What are the intangibles, the must-haves of a player when you're looking to draft them
2:32:54
when they are sitting in your locker room? What are those must-haves of a Dallas Cowboy
2:32:59
For me to represent the ownership and the coaching staff, and what we have to find out is how much do they love football
2:33:06
At the end of the day if you love it you will do whatever it takes to maximize your ability
2:33:12
And we got to go through a number of steps to find that right these guys are getting paid in college now
2:33:17
There's so many other factors that we have to get to but that's why spending time with them the coaches being involved with it
2:33:23
Our process is you got to find out who the guys are and if they love football if you love it
2:33:27
You'll do anything for it to improve and realize the value of teammates winning competitiveness all of those things
2:33:33
And we're going to close out the way we started. David. Brian, this is for you
2:33:41
I know the decisions made this week are organizational and everyone. It's a collaborative effort
2:33:47
But kind of touching off what Jerry said a second ago, this will be your first player
2:33:53
you've taken as a head coach. What is the significance or do you see the symbolism of that in the message it sends
2:34:02
your team and players as far as who you're looking for and what type of player you want going forward
2:34:09
Is it that big of a moment or is this just another step in what you're doing all offseason to get to the start
2:34:15
Well, I mean, it's a big step, but I wouldn't say that it's a symbolic moment for me
2:34:20
We're going to add great players throughout this entire draft. Yeah. And it doesn't end after the draft ends
2:34:26
We're going to find and continue to keep looking under every stone to find guys that fit into what we want to do as a culture and what adds value to our team
2:34:34
But I know one thing. Whoever we add on Thursday night, it will be through tremendous, tremendous amounts of hard work from the top down, from Jerry Steven, Will, Mitch, Chris Vaughn, the entire scouting department that coaches
2:34:52
And it will be someone that's going to make the Cowboys fans proud. All right. Thank you, everybody. Thank you. Thank you
2:35:00
That was the presser, Jerry Wayne Jones. And it's now time for instant reaction time
2:35:09
Maybe he appreciate y'all so, so, so, so, so much. But what we took away from this particular
2:35:18
Let me let me go like this. I want to be able. to make a video within a video with that you know let me make a video within a video
2:35:30
yeah these faces boy all right so that face is dog on foot as hell
2:35:39
LeBron James um okay all right so my biggest takeaway of the presser is that they gave details
2:35:53
and I'm just being 1000 with you guys that they love speed right and he said that he wants to make
2:36:00
a pick for his first pick to be monumental and of course shoddy may just do that they will
2:36:08
draft the offensive line in this draft we heard breadcrumbs of them drafting a wide receiver um
2:36:16
they did speak upon like the differences as far as the culture aspect of what shoddy is trying to
2:36:23
bring forth far as his theory of what the football should look like and how hungry guys are uh i think
2:36:32
that when we look at everything and we contextualize what they said basically even jerry jones with all
2:36:40
of the words salad you know and there's a lot of words salad that had us looking around like hey
2:36:46
can he get to his own point because he even brought up the fact that he even talked to jay
2:36:55
to jayz right on des bryant conversation which was many a moons ago right and that's crazy because
2:37:05
his whole argument on that topic is that i don't want to deal with agents i would like to get a
2:37:14
deal done myself and to put the cherry on the top you know shoddy wants defense yeah i hear you i am
2:37:20
awake don contextualize it well hey to put the cherry on the top this is fast forwarding to present day you got david mulagetta who dare i say is one of the most notorious agents out there that won take upon being talked about loosely right and he got
2:37:40
multitudes of clients that he's dealing with now we do know the jay-z shout out to the rock
2:37:46
you know what i'm saying um here's the thing here's the thing when you look at jay-z in his whole movement as it relates to
2:38:00
uh assigning players they had a meeting at 11 o'clock didn't finish till five o'clock that
2:38:07
morning here's my thoughts Jerry Jones those ways in those examples of what you utilize and use
2:38:17
far as the reason why you don't trust agency and on top of that you don't trust even attorneys
2:38:25
it's crazy because one of the things that we have to understand that ladies and gentlemen
2:38:31
modern day football is literally not for long you got to make sure that you can uh get get these
2:38:39
deals done as quick and as soon as possible because the longer you wait the value of said
2:38:47
player that you trying to sign is going to increase and if you don't have that ability
2:38:53
to get a deal done sooner you're going to pay more and you can lay out all of the lays of the
2:39:00
land and the ways of the land on injuries that's a part of the game but you can't say i'm gonna sign
2:39:07
a person and then oh they may get hurt so that's why i'm gonna wait it out no you got to go ahead
2:39:14
and sign said player because you could have gotten dak prescott for 10 million dollars less right
2:39:20
apy apy range right that 10 million dollars you can put that towards another area where we have
2:39:27
all of these holes at whether it's wide receiver whether it's going and getting a running back
2:39:32
remember derrick henry was six million dollars on the market now before this season kicked off
2:39:39
this offseason kicked off that's what rico is right now he went over to carolina land
2:39:44
so you got to figure out a way shout out to you kevin turner appreciate you for jumping in
2:39:50
shout to your ice cold cowboy appreciate you and angie you got to figure out a way to get in front
2:39:56
of these contracts and watching the tea leaves and all of this stuff is only going to drive up
2:40:01
the own price now the whole storyline and the subject matter when you went all the way back
2:40:06
into 19 of 92 or was it 93 one of those years i think it was 93 when emmett smith held out
2:40:18
and emmett goes to his grave and say oh it wasn't a holdout you know i just had no contract right
2:40:24
if you thinking that that was a good way to handle business i got land on the moon for sale
2:40:33
discount 15 off jerry because it was a terrible move i think he coming off of a super bowl had
2:40:41
18 total touchdowns in the regular season about four or five touchdowns in the postseason and he
2:40:47
was by far the mvp of your team and if you do him like that of course he's looking for money
2:40:53
because he was the heart and soul of this team. And we can go back and forth talking about offensive linemen
2:40:59
with the conversation you had, but you can't dismiss what the coaching staff brought to the table
2:41:05
And the coaching staff, not one person, before their first Super Bowl or their second Super Bowl
2:41:11
was drafted in the first round as it relates to offensive line. L.A. didn't come into the latter part of it
2:41:18
You got to have, 93, appreciate you, Jeremy, thank you. You got to have coaching to give you some installments and strategy and scheme
2:41:28
So by far, the Cowboys operate in the way that they are doing in an archaic way
2:41:33
It may have worked in the 90s when you had good coaching. But as of now, modern day football and modern day times, you got to get ahead of it
2:41:41
And that's one of the areas where we have been really, really wrong at
2:41:47
We can accumulate talent, which is good. But can we accumulate skills, skill sets, strategy, schemes
2:41:56
We don't do that. And you can have all the talent in the world
2:41:59
When you had a Jason Garrett, I hate beating him up, but he was here for 13 seasons
2:42:04
That's a long time. And you can have all of the talent in the world with even Mike McCarthy
2:42:10
But if you don't have a system in place, you're going to continue to see the same results
2:42:14
Now, hopefully, Shottie can infuse with the two and get a real system in, an identity
2:42:23
If we're going to be a powerhouse run first team, then let's do that
2:42:27
If we're going to be a team that's chunking the ball all over the field, let's do that
2:42:32
But keep in mind, balance is everything, and you've got to have that
2:42:36
We haven't had that in a long time. We've been one-sided. And with Jason Garrett, we understand
2:42:42
We know how the love affair was with that. But at the end of the day, the presser, to me, shouldn't have even been a presser
2:42:55
You know, do any other teams do an hour about their draft wants and needs and letting the world know what direction they're going
2:43:03
It's just crazy. But, you know, it is for what it is. But that's my takeaway from the presser
2:43:08
I hope that with this clean sheet of paper with Shadi that at least we identify what we are
2:43:14
We are a run team. We are a defense that can clog the drain, and we can stop the run, basically
2:43:19
So I want us to run the ball and stop the run, right? Play action will be open to you if you get a speedy wide receiver
2:43:25
if you fool around and get defensive tackle, and all of that stuff, it should work out
2:43:30
What we're going to do at this time, we're going to open up the phone lines. I really want to know your thoughts
2:43:35
I want to know how you guys feel of everything. Shout out to thedallascowboys.com

2:44:47
He's a beast. Another big guy is CJ West. CJ West, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
2:44:54
But there some good team tackles out there Like my fantasy pick my last pick of the draft It the last pick Going on to get Desmond Woffers
2:45:05
Yeah. Four in a pound. Florida. Stop that push. That tush push
2:45:10
The tush push, man. And the thing is, if you want to stop the tush and the push
2:45:16
you got to have somebody with meaty hands. You know what I'm saying? And Tyleek Williams, he's meaty
2:45:21
He's got girth, lower body girth. and he'll be able to be a person that's a true 6'3.5", 6'4", 330 guy
2:45:29
that can move around with his size and weight. So, yeah, I think that this draft right here, even though it was on the fly
2:45:37
I think that it was one of my better ones right here. Yeah, that was a good one
2:45:41
I did a last-minute, and for some reason, I don't know if that's going to happen
2:45:46
They had Walt Chanoli dropping to the second round. So I picked Matthew Cody
2:45:53
Walter Nolan, Quinshine Junkins, got Lee Brinsard, corner, Tulane. Then I picked Jack Kittner, linebacker, Notre Dame, Melo Dawson, Kansas corner
2:46:07
Nazee Stackhouse, D-Tackle, Georgia. Lane Larson, running back UC Davis. Come on with it
2:46:15
And then I had Desmond Watts, D-Tackle, Florida. I mean, Desmond Watts, D-Tackle, Florida
2:46:23
Desmond Walken, the last pick of the Florida D-Tackle
2:46:33
Oh, Elias Williams is, that's a big pick. It's a good pick, man
2:46:40

2:48:26

2:48:32
MJ, he just be talking to me, man. He got to send it in, bro. Let me see
2:48:37
Y'all great. Smoke one for you. He DMed me his draft. He got Ted, Quenshawn Junkins, Jonah with an A, and I don't know who this is
2:48:51
Okay, I got to click on it. Harold and them, they gave you an A for that, okay
2:48:57
Well, you're good with these drafts. The 91st pick, you got Harold Miner, Jared Wilson, Dorian Strong, Devin Neal
2:49:11
You got him way that deep? Okay. All right. Damn, how many pics you got
2:49:16
You must send me multiples. Yeah. Shoot. This look pretty good. Let me bring you up on the phone, man
2:49:24
But before 929, I'm going to check him first, Smoke. So let me see if he's still here
2:49:29
929, you're live on the nation brought to you by Frank Affirm. Talk to me. What's going on, man
2:49:34
How's everything? Man, all is well. I can't complain, bro. That's good, man
2:49:41
When you did the little draft simulator thing earlier and you was talking about
2:49:45
Emeka this whole entire draft process, I know everybody's infatuated with Ted
2:49:51
and his – that dude's a monster – and Matthew Golden Speed
2:49:57
But I've been a favorite of Emeka Abuka this whole entire draft process
2:50:04
Just for the simple fact of what everybody's been saying, and it's just like he's been the number two receiver at Ohio State
2:50:11
the whole entire time. However, at the same time being the number two receiver
2:50:16
he has the most yards. So he's the perfect Robin, can play all over the place
2:50:20
And like you said earlier, he is very well-rounded. He's probably the most well-rounded overall receiver in the entire draft
2:50:30
I would love for him to be at 12. And listening to the Joneses, they have 16 to 18 first-round grades
2:50:42
Okay, I'm not a very big trade-back guy, but if they are going to trade-back
2:50:47
they just told you we're not going back further than 18. Because a mega may slide back there, and we could pick up a second and a fourth
2:50:55
or a third or whatever the case may be. And give me luck, you know, I don't necessarily need a Marion happen
2:51:02
I'll take a method in the first round, give me Travion in the second round
2:51:06
and give me the cornerback from, what's his name, Reveille from Miami in the third round
2:51:11
and from there I'm good. Now, I missed that part. So how many first-round grades do they say they have
2:51:19
They have 16 to 18 first-round grades typically given every single year
2:51:24
We're at 12. So they just told you if there is a trade back scenario in the phone range
2:51:30
they're not going back past 18. Okay, that's a damn good pickup right there
2:51:35
I probably was joking around. I didn't hear that part. So I appreciate you for that
2:51:39
Yeah, yeah, yeah. No problem. So my thing is like, so if we do trade back, and I'm against trading back
2:51:45
but if we do trade back, and I've been a big fan of America
2:51:49
and everybody got, you know, Jack and Matthew Golden, well, then let him fall on back to 16, 17, 18
2:51:56
We'll get our fourth round back on another third round pick. Get me Tredion Henderson in the second round because I like him in the second round
2:52:07
And get me Revell from Miami in the third round. And from that, man, I'm good from there
2:52:12
Just get some more depth pieces like you've been doing. I think the Jones and the Cowboys, I think we're cooking this offseason
2:52:18
and people are not really paying attention. I think we're cooking a little bit. We got a little sizzle going on
2:52:23
We do got some sizzling going on And I not mad at it bro I appreciate you for calling in i thank you for your uh your insight to that i surely missed that they said 16 or 18 so that dude paints a different
2:52:37
picture because somebody now now out of that five or six players we need to know how many
2:52:45
tags are touching you know that should have been the follow-up uh questioning and i think they
2:52:50
probably asked them that if i'm not mistaken like how many guys do you have kind of like lumped
2:52:54
together yeah um they kind of touched on it but they were very vague about it they was just like
2:53:01
you know we want to be sure that if we got a one one four and a one one five yeah yeah that is more
2:53:08
so going to be like okay which one fits a little bit better okay if the one one five fits a little
2:53:13
bit better we'll take the one one five but we're not going to take a one two five over a one one
2:53:18
five there you go i remember them talking about that man you man you soaked in some good information
2:53:23
on that appreciate you calling in let me hear you say it bro how about them cowboys come on with it
2:53:30
man look at that i love it man just pure football talking and and getting things going um and he
2:53:37
opened up some some some things in my mind about that and i can't wait to see how i really can't
2:53:45
wait for this weekend to be over with but i don't even see in this first round emeka to anybody on
2:53:53
this tank-a-thon let me make sure before i let smoke up uh let me know if y'all see mecca what
2:53:59
happened to him he falls to the second round whoo okay damn they feel that bad about him on tank-a-thon
2:54:12
that's wow y'all that's wow that's wow all right so they had us drafting tet and i can't get mad at
2:54:20
Ted but some some part of me is feeling as if though Ted is good I just think Emeka will have
2:54:30
a faster transition that's all I'm gonna say he's he's like literally in between the two of
2:54:38
Matthew Golden and Ted I just put Emeka Ibuka right there like he's not a blazer blazer guy
2:54:49
but he's a better route runner right i think at the top of the route he's a little bit more polished
2:54:54
than matthew golden but matthew golden can reach and get that ball up out off the uh sky i think
2:55:00
off the releases golden you're going to have to fabricate more of those things you know but neither
2:55:06
here nor there let me let my guy on man uh and and and dive into what he got going uh from the
2:55:13
9-10, you in. Smoke one for you, man. Talk to me, bro. Lord Nation, my brother. How you doing today
2:55:19
Man, I'm great, man. I can't complain. Man, you had me laughing so hard at those pictures, bro. I'm sorry, bro
2:55:26
That's Jay-Z one, bro. Oh, my God. That's Jay-Z. Oh, man. But anyway, the way I got this draft, the way I did mine is that I did Tech first, right
2:55:38
Right. Then the second round came up, and I got a heck of a trade offer, bro
2:55:43
So, like, one team up would be, like, four damn draft picks for that one second rounder, bro
2:55:50
What app are you using? What app are you using? I can't remember
2:55:54
You know what? I'll get back on my phone and I'll send it to you. Send it to you
2:55:58
Let's see it. Yeah, it's pretty good, though. It's really good, man. But, yeah, I was really focusing on tech and Mecca
2:56:06
Now that you just said, I'm going to change tech and put Mecca there
2:56:11
to do that now now here's the thing though it's going to be a hard press to pass up on tech
2:56:17
but Emeka to me I just think that he's a more polished in every category but jump balls far
2:56:26
as what tech can do right and if you look at golden he's he's a speedster even though his
2:56:32
tape doesn't shows that but he's very quick off his releases he's like a cat it's hard to catch
2:56:37
And that's why, you know, you can get a little bit more out of him versus Emeka
2:56:42
because Emeka off the LOS, he tends to come off a little too high
2:56:47
Him and Ted. But keep going, keep going. Yeah, but Quinshaw, he's the only one left for me at that high rate
2:56:56
because Hampton and Henderson had left. So I always stuck with Quinshaw
2:57:00
I was about him. I mean, got him anyway. But Jonah, bro, I know y'all don't open these O-linemen, bro
2:57:07
I understand it, but that dude is athletic and strong. Trust me. He is
2:57:11
very, very strong, bro. Strong and athletic. He can move. Fannin is a great tight end. We get pushed by
2:57:19
by him. We go to the next guy. I think it's... Jared Wilson. Interior
2:57:24
offensive lineman from Georgia. Oh, my goodness. They gave you a B-plus on him
2:57:31
Yeah, but, man, watching that guy, he don't go backwards at all, bro
2:57:35
At all. He don't go backwards at all, man. He gets hit
2:57:40
He'll stay. He might get bounced back one time, but he anchors down
2:57:44
He'll go nowhere else after that. He's a style lineman, but you need to watch him, really
2:57:49
Darren Strong is a tight cornerback. He will stay sticky on you
2:57:53
He's going to be a right guard. Wilson is going to fight for that right guard spot
2:57:57
Yeah, I can see him be a right guard. I can see him be a right guard. He can still move, too
2:58:01
Okay. David Neal, as far as he's got that power and speed
2:58:05
You got to break down strong for me. Why you went with us
2:58:10
Strong. If you want strong, this dude is sticky. He stays with you
2:58:15
He turns his head. He looks for the ball. Nuts the ball out
2:58:19
I mean, he stays with you. Every move you're doing, he's right there with you, bro. He doesn't get lost in the traffic or nothing
2:58:25
He stays right there with you, bro. If you pay attention to how he plays, he will tackle, and he stays sticky defense
2:58:32
Yeah. All right. David Neal, I don't want to say too much about him
2:58:37
You already know how good he is, but they gave me a C on it. I don't know why. I think probably at that position, it's probably too high for him
2:58:43
But, you know, we need to have two more running backs. Malakai Moore
2:58:50
I just got him because we needed safety. I want somebody with some speed that won't get beat over time
2:58:57
You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Oh, my goodness. That hurt my feelings, bro
2:59:00
Somebody be beating on top like that, bro. You know, Logan Brown, he was just an extra pick, Isaiah Roberts
2:59:07
Yeah. Okay. He is an interesting product, bro. Very fast. He's got good twitch
2:59:15
His hands are quick, bro. I mean quick. They are very fast, bro
2:59:20
You got to look at how his hands are. Yeah. I mean, everybody on this list right here is, oh, Jack Kaiser, bro
2:59:27
You talking about instincts. You know how that kid from UCLA, how he gets the same way
2:59:35
Jack Cousins is the same way. Riley Mills is so strong. He can't get blocked, man
2:59:42
He can't get blocked at all. He can't get blocked. You need to go watch that guy
2:59:46
He can't get blocked, bro. Riley Mills can't get blocked. I love your ysis on this, man
2:59:51
And I know what you're about to say about Nick Nash because he's one of my favorites
2:59:55
Break down Nick Nash. Come on with it. Come on with it. I like Nick
3:00:00
Oh, this dude, he can catch. No, this dude has great feet
3:00:05
He knows how to get open. He goes for the high point of ball
3:00:09
He catches with his hands. He don't drop the ball, bro. Like, literally, this dude don't drop the ball at all, bro
3:00:16
I mean, he don't drop it. Like, when I say he'll get the ball, he'll go get it. Yeah
3:00:20
I think he was a receiver on my team, too, at the time, too. So, I mean, he was
3:00:25
Nick Nash liked that. He was like that. For a power-off player, he really liked that. Okay
3:00:28
Ty Hamilton. You know how Williams is for Ohio State getting all the flash, the auto flare
3:00:38
He did the dirty work. Okay. That's the dirty work guy right there
3:00:42
Strong. When he puts the pocket on one side, he's pushing it towards Williams' side
3:00:48
to get the tackle. Usually, he'd be the one to get it. Barron
3:00:54
Barron. Go watch him. That's all I got to say about that
3:00:58
I'm going to have to go watch him. Please go watch Tyler Barron
3:01:02
That boy was a dog on the line, brother. And Jaden Smith. I like his taste
3:01:07
He is nice. He's sticky too. How many picks are these, man
3:01:13
God, it lives longer than Jalen Ochen. 16 picks. How in the world
3:01:19
I got 16 picks, man. Off of one draft. Off of one trade
3:01:23
Off of one trade, bro. That's crazy. That's crazy. That's crazy. I mean, it's crazy
3:01:28
Think about it, man. If we can get these about two more picks, we can build up players
3:01:33
I mean, that's players all up and down the line, like almost towards the end, brother
3:01:37
How many times did it take for you to get this? Because you got all good grades, bro
3:01:41
Once. Jeez, boy. And the only time they gave you a bad grade, and I like his tape, is Devin Neal
3:01:49
Devin Neal? Yeah, that's crazy. This site is crazy. I'm going to see you at the site as soon as I got the phone with you, bro
3:01:55
But I'm telling you, brother, this right here, I mean, all I did was just look at the people's name
3:02:02
I went back there. I watched the tape. I kept on studying them, kept on studying them
3:02:06
I'm like, man, this is doing pretty damn good, bro. You did a damn good job on this
3:02:12
Man, oh, oh, before I go, if you guys ain't watching, I think the thing is
3:02:17
Lars Lansing, the running back from UC Davey, I ain't got nothing to say about that dude
3:02:23
He's an undrafted free agent. He is going to be. I can't wait to see your undrafted free agent list
3:02:28
Is that the one, Smoke? It's going to come. It's a good chance to you, brother
3:02:32
You have a good day. And I love you, brother. And I'll always be your friend
3:02:37
And he'll always be mine. You understand that? No doubt, man. So let me ride that. How about Phil Cowboy
3:02:42
How about him, Smoke? Let me ride that whip, though. Let me get that whip, though
3:02:46
Let me push one of them whips you got, though. Come get him, brother
3:02:50
Yes, indeed. You know you're all good for it. No doubt, man. You have a good one
3:02:54
Yeah, yeah. If y'all don't have excitement in your voice like my guy smoked one for you, man, I don't know who you are
3:03:01
You know what I'm saying? Man, that was very exciting. He was talking as if, that's my dog, he was talking as if we got those players
3:03:11
And to be fair, to be fair, I ain't mad at none of these picks, man
3:03:18
Sure, he doubled up with running backs, right? and then he even dip and dabbled a little bit in interior play whether it's offense or defense
3:03:27
he even got a tight end and uh positive necessary and he went got 10 uh hey that's a that's a nice
3:03:36
draft with 16 players somebody's getting cut it's going to be a day of awakening of those who're
3:03:42
going to get cut for that right that's a guy that's a lot of good players bro gillie meeting
3:03:47
with the Cowboys right now. If the right corner ain't there in the draft
3:03:52
he will be a Cowboy on Monday. David, I really appreciate your insight
3:03:56
and your knowledge of that. I'm quite sure. Yeah, I'm quite sure
3:04:01
16 picks is a lot of picks, though. But he nailed all of them 16 picks
3:04:05
That's good. I would say Gilly on his team will help Carson so much
3:04:13
because now Carson can learn from. He can learn from Gilly, right? Just like Bland
3:04:21
learned from Gilly. So I do like that. The next call I have
3:04:25
available and ready for me is my is this my guy man from the 254
3:04:31
you live on the nation. Talk to me. Hey, our nation. What's up, John? What's good
3:04:37
with you? Nothing much. How you living? Good. I've been I'm going to put up a minute
3:04:50
Yes, man, I feel you, man. But, you know, draft is right around the corner, John
3:04:55
and we're going to have a great time, man, and trying to get everything organized here
3:05:00
Who do you want? I mean, if we get Ashton Gentry, John, I will do some crazy things on draft night
3:05:36
If we get Ashton Gentry, I'm saying, you know, I don't know if y'all old enough to remember
3:05:43
but when we drafted Ezekiel Elliott, my guy, Shango, was like, it's over
3:05:49
It's over. Yes, yes. I might do the same thing, John. If we draft Ashton Gentry, I'm going to reincarnate that particular video
3:05:58
what my guy Shango did, and say it's over, because I know for sure what he brings to the table
3:06:06
Yeah. Yeah, it'd be a joke. the two uh
3:06:40
the two zero what the number was oh
3:06:51
yeah the number zero will be over shown he'll be wearing number zero this season
3:06:57
I can't wait to see those crispy zeros out there on the
3:07:01
field man making plays this season is going to be excited All right, John, I can't wait to see you
3:07:08
And by far, we gonna make sure, and we gonna hold everybody accountable that's in his chat
3:07:14
we're gonna make sure we get you to a game this year, too. We're gonna make sure, John
3:07:20
All right? And I closer to the stadium now You closer to the stadium
3:07:36
Yeah. Yeah, we're going to make it our business, John. And before I let you go, let me hear you say it
3:07:43
How about you, John? Come on. Go DC405. DC405, man, for life, man
3:07:50
That's my guy, John, man. Put John in the chat. I need to see flames
3:07:54
all down the chat, man. John is a superstar hero, and we are undefeated
3:08:01
when we literally have John at the game. And one of the games he went to, Dak Prescott put a 40 on them boys
3:08:10
Who remember that? He went to that Eagles game, and he put a 40 on it
3:08:15
And we all know of John's circumstances here, right? And so many people, you know, will cast expurgeons and say negative things about certain things
3:08:27
about things that we don't need to bring up at this point. But as a real one, y'all know by the strength of what we were able to do for him to get him out to the game is unbelievable
3:08:39
Unmatched. And and that's one thing that I pride this content on and this channel on is being able to be a resource to people
3:08:50
Right. Right. It's been a resource to people. A lot of people talk and do video, but they don't be a resource to anyone
3:08:57
They just talking. Right. But I'm actually moving and we are out there making sure that we can pave a better way for someone
3:09:04
right so that that's what we're doing salute to john and i got my next caller on from the 971
3:09:13
you're live on the nation brought to you by franko firm.com talk to me
3:09:16
once twice three times a lady thank you you know uh hey some people may no jp
3:09:34
JP what happened Your Mississippi connection went off Alright so the 469
3:09:40
What's on your mind Your Live on the Nation Brought to you by Frankaffirm.com
3:09:44
Talk to me Yo good afternoon Law Nation How you doing man
3:09:48
I appreciate you man Thank you so much Hey that's good That's good
3:09:52
Hey man I just want to apologize For that That whole situation from yesterday
3:09:58
But hey at least we know The answer for today About the draft Oh yeah Oh yeah
3:10:02
Come on with it Hey I just had to bring it out so you never know you never know like i said i'm not expecting it to happen but you know jerry and
3:10:09
steven jones can just be out there straight out fools you know man come on with it no no you had
3:10:14
an opinion right and and one of the things that i i try not to do is try to change anyone's mind
3:10:21
right you know because it was it was a take you know shador at 12 because of the nuances with the
3:10:29
Joneses. I won't be hit with surprises. You'll be like, God, dog
3:10:33
this is what the Cowboys do. But it is for what it is
3:10:37
Yeah, exactly. I just want to say it was my deal. It's something I just thought about. You know, Jerry being
3:10:43
Jerry, right, Law? Back to football. I just want to say draft is
3:10:48
two days away now, Law? That's crazy. Time flies, man. Thank you for all the coverage
3:10:55
you do for all the Cowboy Nation. but um i just got two names out there that i feel that um i mean could be beneficial if we don't go
3:11:04
wide receiver in the first round but i think all indications is we're going wide receiver in the
3:11:08
first round depending if them if they fall especially tent because i feel like tent can go
3:11:14
higher than expected you know especially to these in teams that need explosive wide receivers
3:11:20
and have quarterbacks that hey they need to prove it that we're giving them weapons now you got
3:11:26
to go ahead and prove that you're that quarterback, correct? So he might go higher than expected, so something to watch out for
3:11:32
But two wide receivers, I want to mention to you, something that can fall in the later rounds
3:11:39
I think one guy I think I already mentioned to you, other than his hands as well
3:11:44
his size and ability is something to be coached at. But, I mean, Sabian Willings from TCU, 6'4", I think that's what you're about him
3:11:53
can be a wide receiver. I think he'll fit perfectly next to CD
3:11:58
But another wide receiver I feel not being talked about is CD's clone out there that can
3:12:03
be coached up is Andrew Armstrong. Andrew Armstrong, yeah. Man, I'll tell you what
3:12:10
If you put him next to CD, it's going to be hard to tell who is who because they can do
3:12:15
almost exactly the same thing putting in the right situations. I think Shadriner Hire's ability
3:12:20
to put CD, Armstrong, Sean and some packages with him using their strengths, right
3:12:26
Yeah. I think that can be a dangerous combo. So I just, I just need to keep in mind that in case we don't drop draft a wide receiver
3:12:33
in the first round, if in case they don't fall, because like I said, 10 and golden can go higher than expected
3:12:39
And that's that. And no, no doubt, man. I appreciate you. Thank you so much for calling in, bro
3:12:45
Come on with it. Good call from Lokes, man. C sent me his draft
3:12:51
Picks or what have you And C shout out to you man
3:12:55
I can see that you've been following me for a long time You put BB in here
3:12:59
Was that before the draft or after the draft Last year let me see
3:13:02
Alright so you went with A NFL Draft database That's the website that they're using
3:13:13
You know how that song goes I got heaven right here on earth
3:13:22
You know what I'm saying? Don't y'all know how crazy of a draft this would be
3:13:27
You know, you know, this would be heaven on earth. You know, a piece of it
3:13:32
Not all of it. You know, different levels to heaven. Right. But Ashton Gentile, Emeka, and then you get Prince Lee, and then you get Quincy Carter
3:13:42
twice removed renamed as riley then you get another riley mills and then you go with sebastian
3:13:50
not janikowski but castro and then you give my guy nick nash down the stretch and then how many
3:13:56
rallies you got bro it's another rally wait a minute is it shoot wait a minute this must be
3:14:01
split upon okay oh it is split okay and then you get uh nick nash and then you get well it's the
3:14:09
Cues, all right, nasty. Robinson, you know, and then you get Melo Dotson
3:14:16
And then you get Tosh Brooks. Bro, you killed, Cena killed this doggone draft
3:14:24
You get Tosh Brooks at the end. Oh, my God, we winning the Super Bowl with this roster
3:14:29
Come on with it, man. Who said we ain't winning the Super Bowl with this one
3:14:33
I'll run around with the Super Bowl. I'll start talking Super Bowl, man
3:14:37
Come on, man. Heaven on earth, eco tacos. Are they fish? Are they ground beef
3:14:42
Turkey? What kind of tacos are they? Vegan tacos? Yeah, I like this one, see
3:14:48
I like this one right here. Let me get the next caller on and I see you sent me one too Chilmo Chilmo D appreciate you I got from the 937 You live on the nation Hey what up Law How you doing
3:15:05
Hey, I'm doing great. Hey, I was just thinking, I think we got to trade back in round one
3:15:12
I think we have to trade back to get some more higher draft picks
3:15:17
to really bolster our starting lineup. I feel like I'm not knocking 10
3:15:24
I just like all four wide receivers. I feel like if we get one of those wide receivers in the first 20 picks
3:15:28
and still am able to get like a round two or maybe a three
3:15:34
depending on how far we go back. I really like Carson Schlesinger out of UCLA
3:15:39
But I know that's like a luxury pick kind of because we need a corner
3:15:43
and a D tackle. But that's why I feel like we need to trade back a little bit
3:15:48
still pick up one of the wide receivers and then go about our business with that
3:15:55
Trade back, gang, as long as we got like 16 to maybe 17, like you said, 18 true first rounds
3:16:01
Yeah, I don't want to go back too far. Don't go back too far. I don't want all those receivers to go off the board
3:16:06
I mean, I even like Burden. I like Luther Burden out of Missouri. I know a lot of people aren't high on him
3:16:11
I see him going as low as like almost a 40. But I still like him too
3:16:15
But I feel like as long as we get one of those wide receivers and get a back
3:16:20
I don't know about Demo. I don't know if he's going to be ready to go this year
3:16:26
Two season-ending injuries. I don't know if he's – I want him to be what he was before because, I mean
3:16:31
he was a special player. He's like a Micah Parsons out there. Right. But I feel like if we got Swessinger out of UCLA
3:16:39
I feel like our linebacker in court would be probably the best in the league
3:16:43
Yeah. Because I like the stuff we did. I know a lot of people were down on Murray
3:16:48
I like Sanborn a lot, too, but I think I kind of like the moves that we did this year
3:16:53
I'm not too mad at Jerry like I was last year. Yeah, I feel you, man
3:16:57
I appreciate you for calling in, Champ. I mean, thank you, bro
3:17:02
Appreciate you, bud. No doubt, man. Good call from him, man, on all points, and good call from him
3:17:12
Let me see if I can find this video. y'all bear with me I'm going to see if I can find this video
3:17:18
I hope I can find it is it this one I think it's this one
3:17:29
we might can get it still nobody's talking about them but let me see if I can find this
3:17:35
listen with soft ears listen with soft ears And what was a gem was a gem to me is Steve Smith, Sr., you know, on his ways of talking
3:17:55
Here you go. That we're doing. Jimmy Horn, Jr. is in my top 15
3:18:01
oh this was very surprising because you know i i i've been so focused on travis right
3:18:10
of colorado but i never really paid close attention to jimmy uh when y'all hear his ysis
3:18:18
it's it's it's really spot on and can y'all do me a huge favor uh we got 346 likes we got more
3:18:28
likes than viewership right now if y'all could do me a huge favor i know we've been live for a long
3:18:33
time we went beyond the algorithm thing you know but if y'all can do me one other favor hit that
3:18:40
share button and uh we can get things moving and grooving but uh before we go any further to this
3:18:47
conversation let's listen again to this ysis on jimmy you seeing the breakdowns that we're doing
3:18:55
From Steve Smith. Jimmy Horn Jr. is in my top 15. Ooh
3:19:01
Why? This is after the showcase. This is after the showcase. Which was all firsthand
3:19:05
He's leapfrogged. He's moved up. Jimmy Horn Jr. did not get a lot of targets because the main focal point of that offense
3:19:15
especially with the bad offensive line play, was Travis Hunter. But Jimmy Horn is smooth
3:19:22
Got some speed to him. No ways for movement. He can catch
3:19:26
Had quiet footwork. No false steps. Yeah, you go. Rolled into his routes like you're supposed to run into your routes
3:19:34
His spacing between lead foot and back foot. Ideal. No false movement
3:19:41
I was pretty impressed. Yeah, you grabbed that one. Looking at his routes in person
3:19:48
Moved up. He moved up big time for me. You seen a. So when he's talking about it in person, right, let me just break that down
3:19:57
Sometimes when you're looking at tape, it doesn't tell you the entirety of the story
3:20:02
When you're looking at tape, you can already see the focal point
3:20:06
Like, for example, Alvin Harper would probably be one of our most underrated wide receivers
3:20:12
but he was so quick, tall, and elusive that it complemented Michael Lurvin and as well as Emmett to a tee
3:20:21
And sometimes, you know, when we start to think of the Dallas Cowboys to a degree of who we are as far as a team
3:20:30
naturally speaking, technically, the Cowboys always been a run first team when we were successful
3:20:37
even in the days of Roger Staubach, right? With Tony Dorcett and shout out to Dwayne Thomas, you know, and all of those boys, right
3:20:47
But when we start to do on our historical data on this team, we always had that elusive number two wide receiver
3:20:55
They can take the distance for your team that can provide cover for your number one wide receiver
3:21:03
And, you know, and we can go on and on about Tony Hill and all of this stuff way back in the days before most of you guys were born
3:21:11
but what i'm getting at ladies and gentlemen is that uh when you look at film and you look at
3:21:19
the person the wide receiver in person you see the nuances that allow them to shuffle their feet
3:21:26
to get the short areas to manipulate a route when they know when to cut it off when it's an option
3:21:31
route and when to sink down in a hole and to greet the ball with their hands so a lot of people if we
3:21:39
miss out on the the premium wide receivers don't be afraid if we fool around and get a jimmy horn
3:21:47
over here or yeah yeah yeah alvin could jump yeah yeah he could do all of those things so
3:21:53
when we look at the the real picture of who the cowboys can be and who they are it's crazy in a
3:22:01
good way ladies and gentlemen and i can't wait to see how all of this stuff can work his way out
3:22:07
So be sure to understand that if we don't get the kind of caliber of wide receiver we want in the first or the second round
3:22:17
there still could be a Jimmy out there for us that can really help alleviate some things
3:22:22
Not to take away from what we already have out of Jalen Tober Mingo and Kevonte Turpin but just to add some more insights to these type of things All right so with that being said
3:22:35
let me pull up Chiel Moe D's draft ysis here on his mock draft
3:22:42
Give me one second here. Appreciate everybody, man, for tuning in. If you guys could do me a huge favor, continue to hit that like button
3:22:50
And sharing is caring right now because that's how we can get this traction going
3:22:55
Okay. All right. So let me pull up Chiel Modiz. Mark Draft, I appreciate you, man, for sending this in, extending the show at least about another 10 to 15 minutes
3:23:08
Emeka Ibuka. Like I said, the last when old boy C sent me his, he had Emeka in the second round
3:23:20
And he gave me Ashton Gentry. So first and foremost, chill, you behind a little bit, but neither here nor there
3:23:29
I'm not mad at this one at all. My goodness. I'm still running around
3:23:35
I'm still happy. I ain't going to say we win the Super Bowls, but my goodness
3:23:40
I ain't mad at you. I ain't mad at you. I ain't mad at you
3:23:47
I ain't mad at you. And then you go with Kenny Grant. We're the Michigan boys, baby
3:23:54
Now, Kenny Grant, he's going to fight. He's going to pretty much look at Mozzie and say, hey, hey, hey, this is my world now
3:24:02
Quinshawn Junkins. I think that if you bring the element of basically power back, they got shiftiness to him, got a strong frame
3:24:12
Oh, my goodness. We're going to be brutalizing and getting things going
3:24:17
And then you got Jonah. You know, as offensive linemen, you know, we're going to do a lot of poor traps, GT counters
3:24:23
We're going to be running. So that's not a bad move. Devin Neal, very sneaky
3:24:29
Very sneaky. Very sneaky. Before all of this popped off, some people had Devin Neal in front of Quinchon
3:24:37
So I like that. And then you go with Frazier, the cornerback from UTSA
3:24:42
I'm not mad at this at all, bro. But shout out to your chill, Moe D
3:24:47
you know come on with it yes indeed a lot of you guys and alvin hopper was a stud yeah you needed
3:24:55
alvin hopper you needed that you know and we could have been even better we could have been even
3:25:00
better if michael ervin didn't get in the way of the jimmy you know who remember the jimmy smith
3:25:06
uh situation you know jim smith worked out for a few days and said man i'm gonna kick i'm gonna
3:25:10
get on up out here and join the expansion team love d neil and the fifth yeah yeah yeah yeah
3:25:16
And Devin Neal may turn out to be one of those super guys for us, man
3:25:22
All right, we got two other callers. I got Rod from the 678
3:25:27
You're live on the nation brought to you by Frank Affirm. And then we will have the 386 hold tight
3:25:32
But what you got for me, bro? Hey, Law, how you doing today
3:25:36
Man, I'm doing great, man. I can't complain at all, bro. Oh, that's good
3:25:41
I'm glad you were able to talk to John. Enjoy the show. So, listen, looking at some of these mock drafts and everything
3:25:50
just like that last one that you just showed up there about Zach Frazier. Zach Frazier
3:25:54
I happen to see a couple of his games for UTSA. He is a long DB
3:26:05
I believe he's about 6'1". Okay. But he led his conference. He led, I think they were in Conference USA or the American Conference, the AAC
3:26:20
But, yeah, he led them in past breakups and also with interceptions
3:26:26
So he definitely knows how to play the position, and I believe he's been playing that
3:26:31
He's been a starter, I think, two of the last three years
3:26:36
So he does know how to compete. He does play sticky, and he does know how to play in a bump and run situation
3:26:45
I guess I heard earlier that Stephon Gilmore is making a visit today
3:26:53
Is that correct? Yeah, he's at the star, so I don't know
3:26:57
If you dare, you're going to talk. Somebody's going to run up to you and talk to you
3:27:01
But the difference is I don't know if he have any relations with Matt Iberflues
3:27:06
or anybody here because there wasn't no carryover, right? We pretty much got a clean slate on defense
3:27:13
Did anybody carry over? Nobody carried over, huh? This is a whole new defense, huh
3:27:21
But still, hey, he's a talent, and I would take the talent, basically
3:27:26
Oh, yeah, exactly. Oh, exactly. I mean, if we can get him in here and everything, yes
3:27:30
and that definitely can help out as far as our DBs and everything. While Stefan – I don't know, that's going to be – excuse me
3:27:39
Trayvon Diggs is on his recovery and everything. Right. And I feel pretty good about that and everything on that there
3:27:47
I'm still a little – between you and me, I'm still a little bit worried about our safeties as far as, like, with Dono
3:28:00
and I forgot the other safety real quick and everything and escapes my mind for just a second
3:28:06
But I would say this. Would you be okay? And you can put this out to the chat and everything as far as with the nation
3:28:17
Say if we didn't have an opportunity to grab one of our primary
3:28:23
one of the receivers or running backs that we wanted to go and get
3:28:26
to see if we wanted to go ahead and get a player like the caliber of Malachi Starks from Georgia
3:28:38
Right. Draft him. In what round? With the 12th pick? Yeah. Nah, that's too rich, man, for the 12th pick
3:28:48
You might well trade back just a little bit and you can still get Malachi
3:28:52
I believe, let me see where Tankathon got him, you know. And I'm not beating your thoughts tracks on that
3:28:59
They got him going to the 24th pick with the Vikings on Tankathon
3:29:06
on their mock draft simulator. But see, but here's the thing. But he had experience going up against Matthew Golden in two games
3:29:17
Yeah. The regular season game in Austin and the SEC championship game
3:29:23
yeah but but right now it'll be uh i'm not i'm not beating the ideology up on that but i think
3:29:33
that we have more now i know we go with bpa right and i don't want to sound like a hypocrite you know
3:29:40
but you know at the end of the day at the end of the day if he's the best player available but i
3:29:46
it's just hard for me to see malachi starks being the 12th overall pick in this draft
3:29:51
Okay, like I said, I was just given that scenario. Mm-hmm. As far as just the case, if our options were
3:29:59
unfortunately whittled down because you've got to expect the unexpected in the draft
3:30:07
there's always been an unexpected scenario where a team come up from like from the later picks
3:30:16
in the first round move up into the top 10 it always seems to happen every single year
3:30:23
that that that that's not the scenario happens right i know like i said i know again malachi
3:30:29
starts was a breach and everything and again and i get that right you're saying you gotta expect
3:30:35
the unexpected no doubt man you you're right on the money man hey i i appreciate you man i thank
3:30:41
you so much for calling in bro appreciate you oh no no problem law no doubt what you're doing sir

Dak fan and I'm a huge fan of the Dallas Cowboys They say ashes to ashes
3:33:39
Dust to dust Tell me not in mournful numbers Life Is but an empty dream
3:33:50
For the soul is dead that slumbers And things are not what they seem
3:33:56
Life is real and life is earnest and the grave is not his goal
3:34:05
thus die are to thus return wasn't even spoken to the soul
3:34:13
in his broad fields of battle and viviance of life be not
3:34:21
and I mean just that be not like a dumb driven cattle
3:34:25
but be a hero in the strife lives of great man all remind us
3:34:37
that we can live our lives sublime in departing leave behind us footprints
3:34:46
on the mighty hands and the sands of time And as we travel
3:34:56
This journey of life There will be those That will walk with you for a mile
3:35:04
But then there will be those Who will walk twine Meaning that they will go the double distance
3:35:13
You know You know everything about a person When you in the low down and the darkness As they say these things are true
3:35:26
Yay, you all go through the valley of the shadow of darkness
3:35:31
They don't say, yay, do I stay. When we're going to continue to move forward and press forward
3:35:39
There will be those who shank you in the back with a butter knife
3:35:45
There will be those who will utilize and use your kindness and rip it apart for their own journey
3:35:53
And say to themselves and to everyone, these are the things I've done on their own merit, but not knowing who handed them the keys
3:36:06
I would tell all of you all that's here under the sound of my voice
3:36:13
are we signing Stephon Gill, Eric, I don't know there's a certain content creator
3:36:26
who said let law know that I got the bodies I know the deeper
3:36:36
darker secrets and if he want to call me names then he
3:36:47
said that he better not let my wife know you know but verily verily I
3:36:54
say unto date you got to understand what law stands for with pure tenacity
3:37:07
always been a ladies man's by the way but you know what LAW stands for
3:37:15
is like hakuna matata no worries because when you lay down the law it stands for long
3:37:23
ass wood I have no problems with that department neither does she
3:37:29
so you need to worry about fixing yours before you try to unleash on the law because i have been
3:37:37
to say real raw and uncut from day one baby there'll be many that imitate and duplicate
3:37:45
and try to do those things but there's only one law and that's law and no one is above the law
3:37:52
and write this down and put law in the chat if you want a thing bad enough to go out there and
3:37:59
fight for it to work day and night to give up your time and your peace and your sleep if all of your
3:38:06
desires of it makes you quite mad that you don't get tired and it makes you hold everything tauty
3:38:11
and cheap if life itself seems empty and useless without it and all that you scheme and dream is
3:38:18
about it if you are gladly go out there and sweat for it fret for it and plan for it and lose all
3:38:25
terror of your mind if you would simply oh just simply go after the thing you want with all of
3:38:32
your capacity strength sarcasticity with faith hope and confidence is third personacity if neither
3:38:38
cold or the property or the famish of fame or the sickness of body of brain can turn you away
3:38:44
from the things you want if dogged and grim and besieged and beset with the help of almighty
3:38:52
cowboy nation my god then says now you did aoc dirty but verily verily i say unto thee for those
3:39:03
who thinking that i did anyone dirty and i did anything bad yes it did it was me that put you
3:39:12
on the screen baby it was me that gave those headsets to everybody and nobody gave me a dime
3:39:19
for at least $300 a pace. And come on with it. Let's not talk about the $6,000 camera
3:39:25
that we use at all of my events. So look, the reality of it
3:39:30
is that Law Nation been giving more than he should. And on the time of all of that
3:39:36
whoever gave something to law? Whoever gave something for me? I need to know
3:39:49
I want to know who gave me something. But I'm going to tell you, we are about that life
