Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons jumped from his seat and gave a hearty fist pump after Dallas announced the pick of Michigan defensive tackle Mazi Smith with the No. 26 pick in the draft on Thursday night.
Smith, who was the key cog to Michigan’s interior defensive line and earned first-team All-Big Ten honors a year ago, is sure to quickly upgrade the Cowboys defensive line.
“Dan [Quinn] knew! Look at the text man. I told you, I told you Dan wouldn’t let me down!” Parsons exclaimed on Bleacher Report‘s live draft show.
