DT was prob the weakest group on the team. Very good guy in the rotation.

I don't think we've taken a DT in the first round since Russell Maryland. I like adding this kind of quality size. We don't need to be prayer for Hankins to stay healthy.

I said no Fn way to Tyler Smith before the draft last year.
I said the same thing about Mazi this year.... all I cam do is trust the Cowboys.
Damn... what a surprise but could be a home run also.

Charlton was a defensive end. All this guy has to do is clog **** up and stop the run. He's probably really good at that. Big difference in what's expected from each player.

On the draft show... they are adamant that this guy is better than Hankins right now.
He's a 1st/2nd round grade on everyone's board. Not a bad pick at 26.
Nolan Smith has obvious warts and it's a deep TE class. This was not a bad or reach pick at all.

He was probably in the top 15 on the Cowboys draft board. A board mcclay has signed off on. No Jason Garrett or marinelli around to mess it up. Trust the pick.DTP02 said:

Go back to the season and recall how badly they kept getting gashed up the middle in the run. It killed them in some games. Changes so much if you have a clog guy like this that you can then turn those great edge guys they already have on their roster loose on 2nd and 3rd and longer

Yep, its a position that isn't sexy, but when you can get a stud in that position it makes all your other players betterDannyDuberstein said:

Not seeing the hype for a TE with Ferguson and hendershott alternating. Focus on the line for run/pass protection.

There is this…pretty expensive for a big man

Micah also wore down as last year went on, and part of the reason was taking a beating vs the run

Parsons is thrilled with it (ticket just played some audio where he was participating on some draft show)

NO just used pick 29 for Bryan Bresee.
Dallas 1000% got the better DT by comparison IMO.

100% EOT.... if Micah loves it then so do I.
Micah is the future of this team... a modern day LT (without the drugs) if he's hype then I am to.
Let's Go Cowboys!

That video should be more than enough to assure any cowboys fan. Parsons is so stoked. He can't wait to get onto the field with this guy.Vince Blake said:“NO MORE QB SNEAKS AJ!”@MicahhParsons11 told Cowboys DC Dan Quinn to pick Michigan's Mazi Smith earlier today and IT HAPPENED 😂 pic.twitter.com/nGm62CAnDK
