Former Michigan Wolverine defensive tackle Mazi Smith was audibly excited to receive the phone call he had been waiting his entire life for. First, he spoke to the vice president of player personnel, then the team owner/general manager, then the head coach, and then the defensive coordinator.
While the names of Will McClay, Jerry Jones, Mike McCarthy and Dan Quinn are important, Smith was more focused on the team name.
The Dallas Cowboys selected Mazi Smith with the No. 25 pick in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
