SportsDay Insider The Dallas Morning News

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss [1:12] the Cowboys’ draft and why, why, why they didn’t take a running back. David provides insight into the Cowboys’ thinking and what they got right, namely, the offensive line, and what the signing of Zeke Elliott means. [24:45] Evan says the Rangers did about as well as could be expected for a tough April schedule, while Kevin argues that, if they’d played well, they could have distanced themselves from the competition. [44:55] Kevin and David analyze the difference in the Clippers when Kawhi Leonard plays or doesn’t, and the impact it has on the Mavs in the playoffs. And the guys reveal the depth of their hockey knowledge in discussing the Stars’ ability to square their playoff series with Vegas at 2-2.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore [15:42] do their own three-round mock draft, and Evan, initially the reluctant drafter, goes all in with a trade netting three third-rounders. David tells us if our picks are on the Cowboys’ radar (Hint: Yes). Kevin simultaneously makes his picks and criticizes them. [2:07] Evan breaks down the Rangers’ hitting problems now that Bruce Bochy has finally pieced together a bullpen. [43:56] Kevin and David discuss the ‘90s style of basketball the Mavs played in squaring their series with the Clippers and stealing home-court advantage, while Jake Oettinger’s problems in goal for the Stars in Game 1 allowed the Golden Knights to do the same. And it’s another bad blazer for Scottie Scheffler.

[49:51] In the potpourri segment, they also talk about the pluses and minuses of the local owners, the Cowboys’ free agent losses and the problems it makes for their draft, as well as how, of all things, Mavs guard Kyrie Irving has been about as good as anyone could have hoped.
