I know you've got a new baby 16 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: in the house, so it must be a little bit 17 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: nice to stay home. I'm getting notifications on my phone 18 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: as we speak that her crib is detecting movement, but 19 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: I think she's asleep, so I think we're good. I'm 20 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: glad everybody is properly social distanced and doing well, and 21 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: I hope that this next hour can be a nice 22 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: distraction for Cowboy fans for sure. Absolutely, and there's plenty 23 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: to talk about as well, because there's some new additions 24 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: to the Dallas Cowboys, definitely some moves that could be 25 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 1: made over the next couple of weeks as we're closing 26 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: in Thursday marks three weeks from the NFL AFT and 27 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: then following that, who knows how this roster is going 28 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: to shape out before we head into training camp. But 29 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: it is a new group here here for Talking Cowboys. 30 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: We're excited about it, and I want to wish the 31 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: best to Mickey's Pagnola, as we love having Mickey around 32 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: to keep us all in check, for sure, but we're 33 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,239 Speaker 1: excited about his new show, mix Shots coming up in 34 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: the next couple of days. I believe, I think they're 35 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: going to try and get that started this week, and 36 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: I know he and Bill Jones are going to do 37 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: a magnificent job on mix Shots. But with that being said, 38 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: let's go ahead and dive into this free agency update. 39 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: A trio of players that have been signed by the 40 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys as free agents that have made some noise at 41 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: least since we last convened here on Talking Cowboys. We're 42 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: gonna start with the defensive tackle position. Don Terry pos 43 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,399 Speaker 1: signed by the Cowboys two years, two and a half 44 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: million dollars, and this is an individual who had four 45 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: sacks last year. He's pretty solid in the past rush 46 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: and thirty second rated interior defensive lineman on Pro Football 47 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: Focus and just for reference for Pro Football Focus and 48 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: where that kind of lies is thirty second. That means 49 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 1: he's one of the top at least starting guys. He's 50 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,679 Speaker 1: listed as a starter on Pro Football Focus. But also 51 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 1: MALIEK Collins was a sixty five and that's probably who 52 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: he would be replacing, So that's just kind of a 53 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 1: reference there. But Rob will start with you, what do 54 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: you think about this post signing and what does it 55 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: do to beef up that defensive line. Well, first off, 56 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: the football reference I use it. I know the head 57 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: coach uses it, Mike McCarthy. He kind of collaborated collaborated 58 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: with those guys last year while he was taking a 59 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: year off, so there is validity to it. I like 60 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: the move because I do think at some point they 61 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: needed to address the size up front. And it requires 62 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: a philosophy change for this team. You know, Rod Marinelli 63 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: wanted those quicker, more athletic defensive linemen to get up 64 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: the field and penetrate trying to make plays in the backfield. 65 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: And obviously that's still a part of it no matter 66 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: what size you are at the NFL level, But I 67 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: think some of the problems they've had in the run 68 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: defense has been attributed to their size upfront. And you know, 69 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: you're not going to find many defensive tackles, as you said, Kyle, 70 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: with the productivity of Don Terry Poe and including the 71 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: size that he brings up at three hundred and forty 72 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: five pounds. And you know, when you go back and 73 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: you look at this Cowboys defense and where they've struggled, 74 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: they've been pretty good overall the last couple of years, 75 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: and they have good young players, They have good young linebackers, 76 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: but they this stat just really jumped out of me. 77 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: I did it right before we went on the show. 78 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: There are three and fourteen the last two years when 79 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: they've given up a hundred yards rushing or more. That 80 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: has been their calling card, stopping the run. And when 81 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: they haven't done that, they have really struggled, so I 82 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 1: like the move up front. I think Gerald McCoy as well, 83 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: who's agreed to a deal, gives them some more size, 84 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: some more versatility. And I think that's other part of 85 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: poles game maybe people don't know, is that he came 86 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: from a three four scheme in the past, but he's 87 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: also played a fourth three front, which is kind of 88 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: in line with Mike Nolan's history too. Is a guy 89 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: that's coached multiple schemes and I think that's kind of 90 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: what they're going for here with this defense. Ama, Yeah, 91 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I man, I'm extremely excited about Don Terry Poe. 92 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: He's a guy that coming out of Memphis was a 93 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: dog and definitely the production that he had in Kansas City, 94 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: also in Atlanta and also in Carolina after well obviously 95 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 1: before the injury. But man, Don Terry Pole is big 96 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: for a person man three hundred and forty pounds. I mean, 97 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: he is all of that and what he's able to 98 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: do at the point of attack in the running game. 99 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: He's a person that he's a guy that doesn't give 100 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 1: up his chest, so you don't have to worry about 101 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: him getting pushed off of the line of scrimmage. But 102 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: he's able to do a lot of things for a 103 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 1: guy his size that you wouldn't necessarily accept, being able 104 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: to rip and sit and anchor himself down in the 105 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: running game, but also coming after quarterbacks, he pushes that 106 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: pocket in the middle and makes it literally impossible. He's 107 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: gonna that's what he's gonna create for the Cowboys and 108 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: making that pocket not so clean for four quarterbacks. And look, guys, 109 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 1: that football has changed so much now where most of 110 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks are in a shotgun anyway, and so getting 111 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: to the quarterback and be having someone that can be 112 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: effective and also stopping the run. As as Rob alluded to, 113 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys were just dreadful in the in the running game. 114 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: I mean we got slashed a lot, and it was 115 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: on those delayed draws and screens where we were really 116 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: liable because we had those smaller guys that were just 117 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,799 Speaker 1: trying to get up the field to create that rush. 118 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: And so now with the girth movement as I'm calling it, 119 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: with McCoy and Dune Terry Pole, you have guys that 120 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: are consummate professionals that also have that size to bring 121 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: on a delayed rush. But also, like I said, it's 122 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: just the size and athleticism of the dune Terry Pole. 123 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: That's really that excitement. He has that ability to dip swim. 124 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: And also you said four sacks last year, and again 125 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: that was all about a guy like him collapse in 126 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: the pocket and getting those that getting those pressures. Danny 127 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: Robin Hack might have touched on all the techniques that 128 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: Poe brings. But I think something that's interesting too for 129 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: Poe and the other defensive tackle Jeremy McCoy, which I 130 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: know we'll get to Kyle, is the leadership. These guys 131 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: are long time veterans, and I think that's gonna be 132 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: really important on this defensive line because right now, the 133 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: only other starter that we know about is DeMarcus Lawrence 134 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: really because we don't know about Tyrone Crawford coming off 135 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: those hip surgeries and or what's going to happen with 136 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: Randy Gregory if he's going to be reinstated. So I 137 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: think this veteran leadership is going to be really important 138 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: for the defensive line, especially with younger players. I mean, 139 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: think about Tristan Hill. I would hope that these veterans 140 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: will be able to help him and other young players 141 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: progress and really bring that fire that I feel like 142 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: the defensive line was missing this last year, and to 143 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: touch Bay. When I think about the poor run defense, 144 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: all I can think about are all those quarterback runs 145 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: and it's pretty pretty miserable to think back on that. 146 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: So I'm excited to have these two bigger defensive tackles 147 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: out on the line. Well, I think one of the 148 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: biggest winners with those with those Gaby runs, I think 149 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: one of the biggest winners though, out of these two signings, 150 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: both Don Terry Po and Gerald McCoury, and the linebackers 151 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: also because it really does free them up to have 152 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: two big, beefy bodies in the middle to that are 153 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: able to stop the run, that are able to even 154 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 1: present a little bit of pass rush. That kind of 155 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: lets the pressure off of those linebackers like a Jalen 156 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: Smith or a Shan Lee. And we'll see if Laton 157 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 1: Vanderesh and his health comes back into plain later on. 158 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 1: But this kind of brings up the question of now, 159 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: with these two signings Poe McCoy, who's gonna be the 160 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: three technique and who's gonna be the one technique. I 161 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: know they played a little bit of both last year 162 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: in Carolina. I know that we've kind of talked about 163 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: it before with this this Mike Nolan led defense that 164 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: that's going to be a little bit of a hybrid. Look, 165 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 1: nobody's gonna be pigeonholed into a four three or three four. 166 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a little bit different back and forth 167 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: than you're gonna see some multiple in there. Defensively, But 168 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: if we were going to try and pigeonhole these guys, 169 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,599 Speaker 1: who's gonna be the one technique and who's gonna be 170 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: the three because they could really play both, Yeah, I'd 171 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,599 Speaker 1: say Poe is gonna be your one and McCoy is 172 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: gonna be your three, just because some size alone, he's 173 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: gonna line up in that a gap between the center 174 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: and the guard. That's just his specialty. That's what he does. 175 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 1: But he's also versa little I mean, he has a 176 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,319 Speaker 1: lot in his tool belt that allows him to move 177 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,719 Speaker 1: on the outside as well. And the Cowboys in the 178 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: past have done a lot of those stunts. We don't 179 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: know exactly what Mike Nolan's gonna do to that regard, 180 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,839 Speaker 1: but it would appear to me that done Terry Poe 181 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: is going to be your one in McCoy the three. Yeah, 182 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,719 Speaker 1: and if you go to a three man line, you 183 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: know Poe can play, definitely play that zero technique, can 184 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: just be that true nose guard for you. Yeah. I've 185 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: agreed with Ecmo on that one. And I think and 186 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: I think McCoy's verstal enough too in a four man 187 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: line to kick out and play some some edge rusher 188 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,319 Speaker 1: as well. I think that's one reason they like him too. 189 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: One thing though, I want to you know what, before 190 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: I would get to that, Danny made a good point 191 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: about Tristan Hill and how you know, he fit Rod 192 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 1: Marinelli's scheme on paper and it didn't work out last year. 193 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: But it's interesting what Mike McCarthy said when he got 194 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: hired about it. If you're getting rid of good players 195 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: or not looking at good players because of your scheme alone, 196 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: then you got to look at your scheme. And I 197 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: think that's what they're doing in the Cowboys front office 198 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,599 Speaker 1: and coaching staff this past year, and trying to just 199 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 1: get good players and see how they how they fit 200 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: and then kind of adapt the scheme to that. And 201 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: I think maybe the Cowboys felt like they've been a 202 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: little too rigid in their scheme and maybe these guys 203 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 1: can bring a little bit more versatility. And again as 204 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: we watching the size upfront as well, Yeah, Danny d 205 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: was a great point also Danny again, Tristan Hill is 206 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: a guy that's become enigma attic in a very short 207 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: period of time for the Cowboys because of his draft 208 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: you know how how he was as a draft pick 209 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: and his lack of production. We didn't get to see 210 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: a lot of him on film, but you know that 211 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: there's talent there. He's gonna be a guy that I 212 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 1: believe that we'll back up Jerald McCoy. We don't know 213 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: again with Crawford what's going to happen as far as 214 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: next season this season because of the hip surgeries, but 215 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,599 Speaker 1: he's a guy that was a big part of the 216 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 1: leadership on the defensive line, and you saw that was 217 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: missing as far as the leadership that he bought to 218 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: that group. So I'm hoping that with the combination of 219 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: all of these veterans, Crawford, McCoy, and Pole, that that's 220 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 1: going to make the difference for a young guy like 221 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: Hell because you saw last year he had some maturity issues. Yeah, 222 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: now I think go for Danny Good. I will say 223 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: too I do feel like it was a very unique 224 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: scenario for how we are all evaluating pill because he 225 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: was a second round draft pick, but the Cowboys traded 226 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: their first round draft pick for Amari Cooper to Oakland 227 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: so and the Cowboys I see was the first round pick, 228 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 1: but of course he would have liked to have seen 229 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: a little more from him in his rookie year last year. 230 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 1: I will say about the defensive tackle signing, something that 231 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: excites me is at the beginning of the off season, 232 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: the entire new coaching staff was available to the media, 233 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: and when I was talking with a defensive line coach, 234 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: Jim Tomsula, something that stood out to meet was he 235 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: had said, you know, I want players where like they're 236 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: not going to look to me ready to come out 237 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: and take a break. So when I see that we're 238 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: getting these defensive lineman sign and I know that they're 239 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: doing the research, I get excited because I know these 240 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: are going to be players who are going to want 241 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: to fight and they're not going to want to come 242 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 1: off the field. I like that that's the count of 243 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 1: player you need. You need some dogs up front that 244 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: are going to plow the line, free up those linebackers 245 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: and potentially win some battles in the trenches. We're going 246 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: to talk about the edge of that defensive line a 247 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: little bit later on with some scenarios, maybe even scenarios, 248 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 1: but also some draft prospects as well that could fill 249 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: that edge rusher spot. Moving on to the next signing 250 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,599 Speaker 1: from last week, tight end Blake Bell. And this is 251 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: a guy that brings back bad memories for me because 252 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 1: I grew up a fan of the Baylor Bears. I 253 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: grew up in Waco, and back in twenty thirteen, he 254 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: was the quarterback for Oklahoma and they called him the 255 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: Belldoz or one of my favorite nicknames in college football history. 256 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 1: The Belldozer just did everything that you couldn't stop. I 257 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: guess for OU, he just kind of plowed through the line. 258 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: Now he's a tight end, though he was a quarterback 259 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: in college. He's been a tight end in the league 260 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: really since he entered. But this is a guy who 261 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: can do a lot of things. And Rob I saw 262 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: yesterday on one of the pieces on Dallas Cowboys dot 263 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 1: Com somebody asked if this could be our Taysom Hill, 264 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: of course, referring to the Saints quarterback. But I don't 265 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: know if that's necessarily a great comparison, but it's a 266 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: guy who can do a lot of things for you, 267 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: and it really kind of clears up exactly where the 268 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: Cowboys are going at that tight in spot. Right. Yeah, 269 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: I kind of I don't know if I snapped at 270 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: that mail back question, but I just didn't want I 271 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: don't I don't want Taysom Hill. I don't want Blake 272 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: Bell to take Dak Prescott off the field. And that's 273 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: what the question was getting at, you know, because obviously 274 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: we've seen with Hill in New Orleans they found ways 275 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: to put him in at quarterback and take Drew Brees 276 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: off the field even in the playoffs. I think with 277 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: Dak he's versatile enough as and mobile enough where I 278 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: don't and especially given the amount of money they're eventually 279 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: going to pay him long term, that's just not a 280 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: viable scenario for me. Maybe if you're in the red zone, 281 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 1: he can do some of that belldozer stuff, that Tim 282 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: Tebow lights stuff that he did in college. But I 283 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: do think, and you know, Bucky Brooks had a really 284 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: nice scout he's our new resident scout essentially had a 285 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: really nice scouting report on him. This week or the 286 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: past couple of days. And basically he's a capable tight end. 287 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: Number two, he's a capable blocker. That's probably gonna be 288 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: line one for him, and especially in the run blocking 289 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: game because losing Jason Witten. That's something that he brought 290 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: to the table even late in his career. And obviously 291 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: he had a catch in the Super Bowl. He is 292 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: a capable receiver and a pass catcher. So I think 293 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: they feel like he can be a compliment, a nice 294 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: compliment to Blake Jarwin and what he's able to do 295 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: stretching the field vertically for them. Yeah, we got the 296 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: we got the Blake brothers, Blake and Blake and uh, 297 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: we gotta come up with we gotta coin a really 298 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: good nickname for these guys. Man. But I was I'm 299 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: really excited about Blake Bell, and the reason being is 300 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: that you know that NFL defensive coordinators they spend all 301 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: of their time scheming and studying tendencies, and so anytime 302 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: the Cowboys tipped their hand on something that they're doing 303 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: through personnel packages, they're gonna be able to you know, anytime. 304 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you're basically dead in the water if they 305 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: can if there's any prediction to your offense. And that's 306 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: what we had when you saw the year when Jason 307 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: Witten was out, we just didn't have that quintessential blocking 308 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: tight end. And that's where Blake Bell does provide as well. 309 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: I mean, he's not a dominating bulldoz or blocker, but 310 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: he does give you enough where he can ship guys. 311 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: He can hold that one on one, win that battle. 312 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: But also as far as in the passing game, he's 313 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: a tight end that can find you know, get skinny 314 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: and find that soft bubble and sit down and you know, 315 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: make catches. Now there has been I guess the only 316 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: knock on him is just catching. He had three drops 317 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: last year, but man, he was playing behind an all 318 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: world tight end last you know, in Kansas City. So look, 319 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: he probably didn't get the opportunities that he'll get here 320 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: in Dallas. But I think that's a that's a quality 321 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: pick up with Blake Bell because of all the things 322 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: that he can do. But I don't think that that 323 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: is you know, again for Schultz, that's going to be 324 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 1: pushing him. But I don't know if the Cowboys are 325 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: finished looking at tight ends either through draft off free 326 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: agency as well. Heck, but you brought up the point 327 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 1: that really excites me about Bell was playing behind Kelsey, 328 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: but Jarwin was playing behind Witten. And right now Blake 329 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,719 Speaker 1: Jarwin is going to be the starter. But what excites 330 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: me the most about this is to finally see some 331 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 1: tight end competition. We loved what we saw from Blake 332 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: jar when he was explosive last year. He had great 333 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: yards after the catch, but Jason Winton was still the 334 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 1: guy because Jason Winn was here for sixteen years, and 335 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: while Winton was great in his own aspects, I am 336 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: excited to see some tight end competition. And I think 337 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 1: that Blake Bell, he's a big guy. He's like six 338 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: six six five. I mean, I'm excited to see, at 339 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: least in training camp, some competition in the tight ends 340 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: and see what he brings and how he elevates Darwin's game. Well, 341 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: I think absolutely he ends those Yeah. I think Schulzon, 342 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: I think Jarwin. I think all of those guys are 343 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: in play here. Because if you think back to how 344 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy handled things in Green Bay, he used two 345 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: tight end sets quite a bit. I mean that was 346 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 1: really one of his staples up in Green Bay was 347 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: using a couple of tight ends, and right now you've 348 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 1: got two very capable ones. One's more of a receiving 349 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: threat in Blake Jarwin, and the other one's a great 350 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: pass blocker in Blake Bell. Now, Blake Bell still has 351 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: some holes in his game. He's of course going to 352 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: be a backup tight end for a reason. But I 353 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,959 Speaker 1: think this is an underrating, underrated signing for the Cowboys overall. 354 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: I think this is a guy who's going to do 355 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 1: a lot of things for you. And like Danny said, 356 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: I think that's a magnificent point. Is it brings in 357 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: some competition because right now, or at least before the signing, 358 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: it was clear number one is going to be Blake Jarwin. 359 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: Number two is going to be Dalton Schultzen. There's a 360 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 1: clear separation between the two. Now you have Blake Bell 361 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 1: that's going to kind of challenge up toward Blake Jarwin 362 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: and see exactly how things work out with those two 363 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: kind of going at it. But talking about positional battles, 364 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 1: we've got one more signing to hit before we take 365 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 1: our first break, and it's a kicker battle. We've got 366 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: Greg's airline from the Los Angeles Rams now coming in 367 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: on a three year, seven and a half million dollars 368 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: and I say it's a kicker battle, but guys, this 369 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: is a lot of money for a guy who is 370 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: going to get signed by the Cowboys and being a 371 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 1: quote unquote battle with Kai for Bath. For Bath of 372 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: course being signed last year on the heels of the 373 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: release of Brett Maher, but he ended up going ten 374 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 1: for ten in terms of his field goals last year. 375 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: And then you turn around you have Greg Zerline, who 376 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: was a bit hurt, only played three games last year, 377 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: but it's still at least before then was one of 378 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 1: the top five kickers in the league. Kicker battle, Oh, Rob, 379 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: what's a guy? I want a kicker battle. I think 380 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: that's great. I think I think this team needs it now. 381 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: You know, if Kyle makes a good point, the reports 382 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 1: are it's it's two point two five guaranteed a million 383 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: for zero won to come here. And obviously he's got 384 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 1: a history of a John Fossil, the new special teams coordinator, 385 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 1: and that's important. I think it's important for your new 386 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: coaching staff to have guys to they're comfortable with. However, 387 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: I would keep for Bath on the roster and go 388 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: to training camp and see how this thing shakes out, 389 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: because what you know, that's how Cowboys fans on Twitter shap, 390 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: you know, scratching their head on this. And I think 391 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: it's I think it's great right now to have two 392 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: kickers on the roster. You go to camp and see 393 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,719 Speaker 1: how things play out. Because the biggest complaints are one 394 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: of the biggest complaints we got all of last preseason 395 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: and into the season, especially all the way into December, 396 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: was there's no contingency plan for Bred Maher And it 397 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: took ten misses on field goal attempts in the regular 398 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 1: season to finally make a change. And for Bath, of course, 399 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 1: came in and went ten for ten in the final 400 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: two games. They have a potential contingency plan here and 401 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: it wouldn't cost them a lot and guaranteed money if 402 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 1: they acide. You know, Okay, yeah, zero line's the guy 403 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: and we move on from Kai for Bath. But they 404 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: have options, and that was the thing we kept hearing, 405 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: you know, internally last year, was well, they just wouldn't 406 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: a lot out there in terms of alternatives for Rett Bahr, 407 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 1: and they just reached a point where you're about to 408 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: miss the playoffs and you've got to do something, and 409 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 1: now they've got a couple options here, Danny, what's the guy? 410 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: I just don't This doesn't really surprise me because we 411 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: didn't see enough of for Bath to have him to 412 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: have Cowboys fans know that he was going to be 413 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: the kicker this year, so this doesn't really surprise me. 414 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 1: I think it's exciting. This is something like Rab was saying, 415 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys fans were nagging about all year, and so now 416 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: there's options. The Cowboys were thin on options last year 417 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: when they signed for Bat to replaced Brett Maher. So 418 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: I think this is also important because, like Rob was saying, 419 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: this is John Fossil's guy. They were with the Rams together, 420 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: and so I think that's important too. And I know 421 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,360 Speaker 1: special teams is obviously a big area the Cowboys really 422 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: struggled in last year or so, it doesn't surprise me 423 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: that John Fossil is starting to get some guys he's 424 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 1: already comfortable with. So Kyle's yeah, sorry, I do think 425 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,439 Speaker 1: that zero Line, based on the money, is probably going 426 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: to be the guy, and based on his history with Assile, 427 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: but you know, it is worth pointing out heck that 428 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 1: you know, I think he was seventy three percent last year, 429 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: kicking had nine misses and that's the that was the 430 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: knock on bred Maher too. So right up there, he's 431 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 1: right up there. Yeah, he's got he's got a big 432 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 1: leg and he's made a lot of big kicks. You know, 433 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: he's been a proven guy. So, um, that's so that's 434 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: different than Maha in terms of resume. Heck yeah, man, 435 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I think it should be competition in 436 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: every position. I mean, obviously you can't there's a certain 437 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: ze he's fine, and you know our offensive line in 438 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: the positions that you won't touch, But there are a 439 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: lot of positions on the Dallas Cowboys roster that need 440 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: to have some competition in the kicking game. If I'm 441 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: Mike mccarthur, that's one of the things that I want 442 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: to be able to lay my head on my pillow 443 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: at night, not having to worry about who my kicker 444 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: is on Sundays. And man, it just got to the 445 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: point last year where every time Maha took the field, 446 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: you just didn't know. And if you go back and 447 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: look at the games that we lost, those closed games 448 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: that we lost, it was the difference between some of 449 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: those kicks make the difference between a ten and six 450 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: season or the eight and eight season that we've finished that, 451 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,400 Speaker 1: And so I mean, for for Bath, I'm ticked off. 452 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: You know, they gave this guy all this money and 453 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: here I you know, I came in. I was your 454 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: saving grace. I did a really good job. And so yeah, 455 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 1: if I'm for Bath, I want a blood bath, you 456 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: know I want. I wanted to. We're gonna kick for this. 457 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: We're gonna kick for our meals at the Star. So 458 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: I'm look, I'm looking forward to it. I think it 459 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 1: was the right decision to make as far as bringing 460 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: in another veteran kicker or kicker that's gonna bring some competition. 461 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,959 Speaker 1: So I don't mind it at all. And I think 462 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: that you can't do anything but set yourself up for 463 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: success by having guys compete. Yeah, definitely competing between the 464 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: three signings from last week. And there's still plenty to 465 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: go until we see exactly how this roster is gonna 466 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: pan out heading into training camp, whenever that may be. 467 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: We do have some new news at least over the 468 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: past week over Dak Prescott. We're gonna hit that when 469 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: we come back, see how those contract negotiations are going. 470 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: You're watching and listening to talking Cowboys here on Dallas 471 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:14,680 Speaker 1: Cowboys dot com.

As we 512 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: move on, let's talk about some of Dak Prescott's contract negotiations. 513 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: Him and the Cowboys still in conversation about the long 514 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 1: term deal despite the franchise tag already being placed. News 515 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 1: came out last night that those talks have continued all 516 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: the way up until now, and some of the offers 517 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: that have been on the table, at least reported by 518 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: Edwarder of ESPN, said that it would be more money 519 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 1: on average per year apy than any other player in 520 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 1: the NFL. Now they're trying to figure out year and 521 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: contract structure. Of course, the deadlines July fifteenth for this deal, 522 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: but it kind of sets things up as what could 523 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 1: potentially be a long term deal well before that deadline. 524 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 1: Kind of encouraging for those who want to get a 525 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: deal done and want to see Dak Prescott asked the 526 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: quarterback for the Cowboys moving forward, Heck, but we're gonna 527 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: start with you. Does this make you more confident in 528 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 1: the fact that a deal is going to get done 529 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 1: that there's still negotiation, there's more encouraging momentum heading that way. 530 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, it's you know, we didn't want for this 531 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: to last as long. I mean for Cowboy Nation anybody. 532 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: We want to make sure that you know that Dak 533 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: was going to be here for OTAs, and obviously with 534 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen that changes everything. As far as the offseason, 535 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: we didn't know what it was essentially that Dak was 536 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 1: asking for. Was it the years, was it the money. 537 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 1: We understand now that it's not the money, it's the 538 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: years and being able to have a four year contract 539 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: and just having that business mind that Dak has for 540 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 1: saying that, look, I want less years to be able 541 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 1: to come back to the table again and you know, 542 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 1: twenty or thirty years old, thirty one years old to 543 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: renegotiate this thing. And you see guys getting a lot 544 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: smarter with this after the CBA and every all that 545 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: leverage that they have, And so I don't have a 546 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: problem with Dak exercising his leverage. What I want really 547 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,360 Speaker 1: for me as a fan is for Dak to get 548 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 1: in get with Mike McCarthy and figure this thing out. 549 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: And I'm one of those people men that I've seen 550 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: guys get a payday and they just fall off the cliff. 551 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: I don't want the rich Dak poor Dak comparison, you know. 552 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: I want to make sure that Dak Prescott, I want 553 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 1: the same Dak and twenty three that came in for 554 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: after Romo was got hurt in Seattle. I want that 555 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 1: same guy. I want that same intensity. So that's the 556 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 1: only thing that I have that I worry about what 557 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is man, is that it is hunger going 558 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 1: to be there because Ben he is gonna go I'm 559 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: gonna say rags to riches, But in comparison, I mean, 560 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a lot more zeros in that bank 561 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: account once he signs his name on the dotted line. Yeah. 562 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: I don't worry about his motivation. I just feel like 563 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: just being around him the last few years, I mean, 564 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 1: he can name every guy that was drafted at the 565 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: quarterback position ahead of him in twenty sixteen. I don't 566 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: know if that goes away even with money, And that's 567 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: just kind of his nature, the way he's wired. Heckno 568 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: brought up some great points in terms of the CBA, 569 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: and I'm sorry the OTAs and whether those are going 570 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: to happen because of COVID nineteen, and that was obviously 571 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: a question mark in terms of the franchise tag and 572 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 1: would dak show up. I think I've never really been 573 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: concerned about this getting done, certainly before July fifteenth, and 574 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: you know, we're not sure the timeline too getting it done. 575 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: Obviously the years are and you're seeing this in the 576 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: NBA too, with guys being more aware of Okay, well, 577 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: the salary caps are supposed to spike after this year. 578 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 1: I'm going to sign a two year deal. That's not 579 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,959 Speaker 1: how the Cowboys have really operated in the past. If 580 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: you think about some of the contracts they've done in 581 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: the past. Tyrann Smith, I think signed an eight year deal, 582 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,959 Speaker 1: an eight year deal at one point. So but from 583 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 1: a business standpoint, you understand if that's if that is 584 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 1: the case, then it would allow dak On a shorter 585 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: deal to come back to the table, as Heckma mentioned. 586 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: But I've always felt confident that it would ultimately get 587 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: done because I do think the Cowboys value him long term. 588 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: I really do believe that, even though it hasn't gotten done, 589 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: and you know, I wonder and I don't know this, 590 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: but given the highly uncertain economic climate right now because 591 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: of COVID nineteen, you know, would it would it make 592 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: Dak think about, Okay, I want to get this finished. 593 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: I want to get this deal done. Maybe that's a factor. 594 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I do think we'll see it 595 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: an agreement at some point, Rob, I agree with everything 596 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 1: you said. Every player has the highest regard for Prescott 597 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: in that locker room. I don't necessarily think his motivation 598 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: is going to change, and I don't have a problem 599 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: with him fighting for how many years he wants. This 600 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: isn't something we see as much with quarterbacks as something 601 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: like running backs, And something we've seen really recently, as 602 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: recently as with Todd Gurley and the Rams cutting him, 603 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 1: is that players are understanding that there is this a business, 604 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:26,719 Speaker 1: you know, just as much as the team seat as 605 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:28,239 Speaker 1: a business for them, they need to see it as 606 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: a business for themselves and looking after their own future. 607 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: So I don't have a problem with Dak asking for 608 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: maybe one less year than the Cowboys want to give him. 609 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: And I'm so confident this is going to get done. 610 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones has said from the very beginning that Dak 611 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: Prescott is their guy. So I think they're gonna do 612 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: whatever it takes to get Prescott's signs so that he 613 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: can he can help take this team to the playoffs. 614 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 1: And they still think he's the guy to take him 615 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. Hey, Kyle, I wanted to throw 616 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: this out at you as well. I mean, you think 617 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: about the new the new place that we're in with 618 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: this at nineteen and not having well we don't know 619 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 1: if we're not gonna have ots, but just say we 620 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 1: did not have or we had OTAs and Dad didn't 621 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: show up for OTAs. Can you imagine the media win 622 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 1: fall because again, a lot of his leverage goes away 623 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,239 Speaker 1: with that now that you know players are not going 624 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: to be required are volunteer voluntarily told to come into 625 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 1: the facilities for OTAs, and so he's avoiding a lot 626 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: of that backlash or bad press if OTAs will be 627 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: canceled and he's able to get a deal done in between. 628 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: Now in July fifteen, Yeah, that's a good point because 629 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 1: you think about all the holdouts that have happened. If 630 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: there's nothing to hold out, then where does that leverage 631 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: July now, Because at that point you're starting to get 632 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: into game checks. If you're trying to hold out into games, 633 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: you're losing money. And for Dad Prescott, of course, on 634 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: the deal that he has, at least with a franchise tag, 635 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: that's a good chunk of change that he would be 636 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 1: leaving on the table if would be a holdout or 637 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: something of that sort. I don't think that's even going 638 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: to come to that. I don't think there's a holdout 639 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: in store at all. I think a deal will get done. 640 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: And kind of going back to something that that Danny 641 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: said just or kind of alluded to just a moment ago, 642 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: but the fact that Dak Prescott knows his value and 643 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 1: these players know their value, it kind of reminds me 644 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: of there was a Sports Illustrated article that was saying 645 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: the value of being the Dallas or the quarterback for 646 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, and I think Dak understands that better 647 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: than anybody else, especially in a climate and an economic 648 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: side of things then we've seen in the past. I mean, 649 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: you look, you turn on the TV and he's on 650 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: Pepsi commercial sleep number, he's on Albertsons. It doesn't matter 651 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: all of these different sponsors, in these different endorsement deals, 652 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: have already been under his tutelage at least since he's 653 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: become the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. Now it's a 654 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: chance for him to kind of push forward and say, 655 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: I've done my job. I've kept up my end of 656 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: the bargain ever since I was drafted back twenty sixteen. 657 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: Let's pay up. Then let's go try and win a 658 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: championship with me at the helm. And I think that's 659 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 1: something that's going to get done coming up over the 660 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 1: next couple of years. Now. We talked about the money 661 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 1: and where the money is gonna lie, and it's been 662 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 1: a topic of conversation all offseason long. When these next 663 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: quarterback deals get done, like a Deshaun Watson and a 664 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,439 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, you're gonna see contracts start getting up into 665 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 1: the forty millions. What would this money potentially look like? 666 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: And Rob, I'm kind of turned into you as one 667 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: of the insiders on this group, But is this something 668 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: I know we've heard thirty three, thirty four, thirty five, 669 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: but with a shorter deal, is it gonna be even 670 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: kind of knocking on the door of forty yet or 671 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 1: is that a little bit too far ahead? That's a 672 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 1: good question. I'm not sure financially how the structure will 673 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: ultimately look, but if you do have a longer term deal, 674 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: you're able to spread out some of that money, and 675 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 1: I think that's probably what the Cowboys are thinking in 676 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 1: terms of, you know, if you're getting it upwards of 677 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 1: thirty five million, what tho what those capets are going 678 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,320 Speaker 1: to look like in year three, year four, year five. 679 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: So that's part of it. But you know, the other 680 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: side of it too, and I think we've discussed this 681 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:16,320 Speaker 1: on previous show, is the new money that has to 682 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: come from the deal because these deals that we've seen 683 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: from wins and Golf with the Rams and Eagles, those 684 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 1: guys had larger salaries because they were first round draft picks, 685 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 1: and so Dak being such a steal the last few 686 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: years in terms of fourth round status makes this a 687 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: little bit more complicated. But again I think Heckma, Danny, 688 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,879 Speaker 1: I mean, I think ultimately that's something they can work through, 689 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: and I think the reports are probably right that it 690 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 1: does come down to how long does Dak want to 691 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: be tied to this deal before he can try to 692 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 1: cash it again? Because you're right, Kyle, the market's going 693 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: to get reset certainly when Pat Mahomes signs his extension 694 00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:01,359 Speaker 1: with the Chiefs. Yeah, of course, man Mahome's agent, they're 695 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 1: they're just waiting. They're waiting on Dak's deal to get done, 696 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 1: because Dak may be the highest paid quarterback in the 697 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,839 Speaker 1: NFL for all of two weeks after he signs his deal, 698 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 1: because you know that there's another contract looming. Not only 699 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: with that, the market is going to get reset with 700 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: Watson also, and you got to think about Lamar Jackson 701 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 1: if he's able to continue on the course that he's 702 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: he's on in Baltimore. All of these things are going 703 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: to be, you know, markets setting contracts while all of 704 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: these quarterbacks and I mean we're talking about forty million dollars. Man. 705 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,319 Speaker 1: We may look up here a year or two from 706 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: now and a guy may be at the fifty fifty 707 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: million dollar mark. Nothing is out of bounds anymore as 708 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 1: far as quarterback salaries. I think both both sides, Prescott 709 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 1: his agent, and you know the Cowboys front office are 710 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 1: aware of that. I would I find a heartily that's 711 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: on something they're thinking about in terms of how quickly 712 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: they do want to get this deal done, because they 713 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 1: know pretty much every year for the next couple of years. 714 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 1: It seems this quarterback if the market's just going to 715 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,360 Speaker 1: keep going out, you know it's gonna be reset with 716 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: every new quarterback signing. So you might as well get 717 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 1: this deal done now so that you're not happy to 718 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,360 Speaker 1: continue to up the price of how much she's going 719 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: to be asking for. It is amazing and made though. 720 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: Go ahead, Rob, go ahead, Well I was going to 721 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 1: move on. It's amazing his salaries. I mean, four hundred 722 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: thousand I think early on in two million last year. 723 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:29,279 Speaker 1: He's getting those endorsements from those those places like you're 724 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: talking about Kyle, But there's nothing like one hundred plus 725 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 1: million dollars guaranteed on a new contract, right whatever, whatever 726 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 1: it's going to be. If he's when he signs, it's 727 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 1: gonna be like hitting the lottery. Whenever he finally gets 728 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 1: that first paycheck. I remember when Deshaun Watson opened up 729 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 1: his first one. He said he like setting alarm for 730 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 1: three am, and then he woke up and was like, 731 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 1: oh man, that's when that paycheck hit. And that was 732 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 1: still a rookie deal. So it's going to be even 733 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 1: bigger for Dak Prescott whenever that day actually does come around. 734 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: But still kind of talking through the quarterback situation and 735 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: the contract situations around Dak Prescott. It's never a quiet 736 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: offseason whenever you're around the Dallas Cowboys, no doubt about it. 737 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw in some scenarios for you guys coming 738 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 1: up next. We're gonna take a quick break right here. 739 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: But when we come back, one of the biggest needs 740 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys this offseason our edge rushers.

Hope everybody is staying safe out there 783 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 1: and sheltering in place like we are in our remote studios. 784 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 1: I guess this is the remote SWBC Mortgage studios at 785 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 1: MA Harrison, Rob Phillips, Danny Siak. I'm Kyle Yeomans, And 786 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 1: as we go into this final segment, first I want 787 00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 1: to kind of allude to exactly how cap spaces there 788 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys right now and kind of what 789 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: they could do to fill some of those spots. And 790 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: then I'm going to get into some edge rush spots 791 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: there as well right now, including what it's going to 792 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 1: take to sign this Dallas Cowboys draft class. There's about 793 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 1: fifteen and a half million dollars left in cap space, 794 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 1: which means that there could be some more additions on 795 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: the way, whether that's to sign a Dak Prescott to 796 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 1: a long term deal or to kind of maybe clear 797 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,719 Speaker 1: up even some more space and get a bigger name 798 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: in here. I don't think the Cowboys are done making deals, 799 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 1: whether that be through the draft, whether that be through trades. 800 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: We saw last year Robert Quinn was a late trade 801 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: in the off season between Miami and the Cowboys, and 802 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 1: Robert Quinn ended up being your best pass rusher. Now 803 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: he's gone. There's a couple guys at edge that I 804 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: think could see a Robert Quinn type of deal, and 805 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 1: I'm going to rely on you guys to tell me 806 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: if this is stupid or not, so I'm gonna go 807 00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 1: for it. And first guy that I really like overall 808 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: actually had some news come around today, and I like 809 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 1: this idea just because he's an incredible football player. I 810 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: don't know if it would necessarily work, especially with the 811 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 1: money situation with the Cowboys, but let's go to Jacksonville, 812 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,800 Speaker 1: Yannick and Guackway, one of the top pass rushers, exactly 813 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 1: an edge rushers overall in the league, still just twenty 814 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: four years old. He's a guy you're gonna have to 815 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 1: turn around and pay pretty quickly. I believe he's on 816 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 1: the franchise tag right now in Jacksonville. I don't know 817 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 1: what it would take to get this guy, but it 818 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: would be maybe less of a Robert Quinn type of 819 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,239 Speaker 1: deal and more of a blockbuster type of deal. But 820 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly, like I said, how much it 821 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: would take to get him. But I think this is 822 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:44,759 Speaker 1: an opportunity for the Cowboys to at least get him 823 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 1: on the phone and have some conversations with the Cowboys 824 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 1: about or excuse me, with the Jaguars about trying to 825 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,320 Speaker 1: acquire a guy of his caliber. And I wanted to 826 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 1: see We'll start with you. Heckma, what do you look 827 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 1: at whenever you're trying to find a guy like Yannick 828 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 1: and Walkway out of jack Villa and maybe try and 829 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:04,800 Speaker 1: make a deal there. Yeah, and Doc Way gives me 830 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 1: the willies. I mean, he's I mean, you know, I 831 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 1: understand the franchise tag, but again, man, he is the 832 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:15,320 Speaker 1: beneficiary of a really good defensive front with Klais Campbell, 833 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: and you know, anytime you're having that like we talked 834 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: about in the first segment, and anytime you got guys 835 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 1: that collapse that pocket and make it really simple for 836 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: a guy like in Doc Way to get those numbers 837 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 1: up and get pressures m You know again, you talked 838 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: about the deal that he's that he's expecting, and he's 839 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,279 Speaker 1: going to be upward in the twenty million dollar range 840 00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 1: as well. We already got that guy in the tank, Lauren, 841 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,399 Speaker 1: So you know, look, we want a guy that's gonna 842 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 1: come in and fill in and be that piece on 843 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: the other side of the tank that is serviceable and 844 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 1: and we don't have to break the bank to try 845 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 1: to get You know again, I understand the athletic ability 846 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 1: and the upside for in Doc Way as far as 847 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:56,360 Speaker 1: his age, but I'd pass on him. I'm with you, 848 00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: Hackmed worried me to bring in a player where you 849 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 1: know you're gonna have to pay him a lot that 850 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: next year. I you know, you're right. We just played 851 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: paid to Marcus Lawrence a ton of money. The Cowboys 852 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: had to let Robert Quinn go, and so I think 853 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: they're not looking for someone where you're going to have 854 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 1: to break the bank on them after one season. It 855 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,319 Speaker 1: was a different position, but I think that was when 856 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,799 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, you know, there were talks about maybe making 857 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,879 Speaker 1: a trade for Jamal Adams, but you know, he's gonna 858 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: need a new deal soon. I just those kind of 859 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:25,839 Speaker 1: things kind of worry me about what kind of player 860 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 1: are you going to get for one year and having 861 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: them integrating and then all of a sudden, you're you know, 862 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:34,959 Speaker 1: they want all this money. Yeah. I tend to agree, 863 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 1: just in terms of the resources you have to give up, 864 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys didn't want to. They don't like giving 865 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,239 Speaker 1: up high draft picks. You know, Mary Cooper was an 866 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 1: exception because they were desperate basically mid season in twenty 867 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 1: eighteen to turn it around and try to make the playoffs. 868 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 1: It's not something they want to do a lot. I 869 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 1: don't know what it would cost in this situation, but 870 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 1: certainly more than a six round pick that she gave 871 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 1: up for Robert Quinn last year. And then the money 872 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:05,720 Speaker 1: comes in as well. And there's a reason the Cowboys 873 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: have been pretty as usual, been pretty selective in what 874 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 1: they're doing in free agency because to your point, Kyle, 875 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 1: they've you know, they've got to pay Dak eventually long time, 876 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 1: even though that I guess that's slotted at a pretty 877 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,480 Speaker 1: high level right now with the franchise tag being around 878 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:24,399 Speaker 1: twenty six something million. But you've also got to save 879 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 1: a little money on your cap for your draft picks, 880 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 1: and and so they you know, they've got seven picks 881 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,839 Speaker 1: this year, and I think, you know, the preference would 882 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 1: be to try to hit something big there and then 883 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 1: you know, have a player under relatively low cost control 884 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 1: for a while, as opposed to haven't turn around and 885 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:45,280 Speaker 1: pay another big money deal soon. Yeah, I think Kyle's 886 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,800 Speaker 1: computer frowze up. But if I know Kyle like I 887 00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 1: think I do, I'm gonna do a little bit of 888 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:54,239 Speaker 1: a noster damas here for Kyle. He would probably be 889 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 1: someone that would be interested in Cincinnati defensive being Carlos 890 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 1: Dunlap that's been in the league fourteen years, coming off 891 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:08,200 Speaker 1: of a believe he's two years into his contract, and 892 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 1: so that's a guy that the Cowboys could definitely sign 893 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: as well. Carlos Dunlap has been a pro, a good 894 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 1: ten year pro guy out of Florida. Rob you may 895 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 1: know a little bit about Carlos Dunlap played in the 896 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 1: Marvin Lewis system six six two d seventy pounds or so, 897 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:26,760 Speaker 1: a guy that would fit in nicely, and we definitely 898 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:31,319 Speaker 1: wouldn't have to break the bank for a Carlos Dunlap. Yeah, 899 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 1: that's that probably seems a little more palatable. I mean, 900 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: at some point they've got to do They're gonna have 901 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: to do something to help address that edge rusher spot. 902 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,799 Speaker 1: I alluded to it earlier with Gerald McCoy can play 903 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: a little bit on the edge. Tyrold Crawford certainly can 904 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 1: when he's healthy. Well, Randy Gregory, I guess, is still 905 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,359 Speaker 1: out there. They still have his rights. If they can 906 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 1: figure out something with him and get him back off 907 00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 1: of suspension, that all remains to be seen. That's that's 908 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:01,839 Speaker 1: a lot to ask. I don't think you can count 909 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 1: on that. But you know, I think this discussion is 910 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: well founded because when you look at what the Cowboys 911 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:13,760 Speaker 1: have done in the last three weeks or so, based 912 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 1: on what's left, I think, you know, quarter and edge 913 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:23,920 Speaker 1: rusher to find find somebody to replace Robert Quinn. Have 914 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 1: we got Kyle back? Do we know? I don't know, 915 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:30,399 Speaker 1: he's frozen. He's just sitting there. It's like Mexican Joe. 916 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 1: It's just pretty weird. Danny, what's you got? Oh man, 917 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 1: this is great. Poor Kyle. I know he had some 918 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:43,920 Speaker 1: really good questions too. I would hope that the Cowboys. 919 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:47,240 Speaker 1: I think there's some good enough options for draft picks 920 00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,759 Speaker 1: looking at that edge rusher, but it's it's a tough call. 921 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:52,920 Speaker 1: I think that will probably be one of their top 922 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,280 Speaker 1: picks they use because we've seen in the past Cowboys 923 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 1: don't typically use those early picks for defensive backs, although 924 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 1: that's a major area that Cowboys have a need for. 925 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 1: But honestly, the thing the thoughts I had, you know, 926 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 1: if you would have asked me a week out, ilud 927 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,759 Speaker 1: have said, you know, you know, you know, defensive ends 928 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 1: probably their first pick, I would think. But then I'm thinking, well, 929 00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,279 Speaker 1: you have Joe Looney. But but Travis Frederick ret hired. 930 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: I'm like, what are they going to do for a center? 931 00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 1: Like we you know, I mean, like we have a 932 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 1: Hawk Clinton Dix now, but what are we going to 933 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:24,040 Speaker 1: do for a defensive back? So I still think defensive 934 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:25,600 Speaker 1: end is one of their top picks they're going to 935 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 1: have to address in the draft. But I mean Honestly, guys, 936 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,319 Speaker 1: I think anything is a go at this point. Now, 937 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 1: all right, guys, I'm back. I've I've made it back. 938 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 1: The computer froze up on me in the middle of 939 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 1: that last question, so I couldn't hear anything of what 940 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:40,960 Speaker 1: you guys have been talking about. But I just heard 941 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 1: what you said at the end, Danny, and kind of 942 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:47,839 Speaker 1: heard about exactly you were talking about how there are 943 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 1: some draft picks there are there is a need at 944 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,200 Speaker 1: edge rusher for the Dallas Cowboys. And if you look 945 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 1: right right on that right defensive end spot, you talk 946 00:48:56,719 --> 00:49:00,319 Speaker 1: about Tyrone Crawford being there, if Randy Gregory he's even 947 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 1: going to be available, and then Jalen Jelks there maybe 948 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 1: as well. I mean, there's there's a couple options, but 949 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 1: you would think maybe a guy like a Carlos Dunlap 950 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: could be a particular Why are you guys laughing? Is this? 951 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:21,120 Speaker 1: Did you guys talk about this? I'm gonna go wow, 952 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:29,239 Speaker 1: did heck mccallege. Look at being a boss, he goes 953 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 1: be better than anybody. But yeah, I think Carlos Dunlap 954 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 1: is a guy that you could potentially get for a 955 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: fourth or fifth round pick. This is a guy who 956 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 1: was one of the top top twenty rated pass rushers 957 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:42,439 Speaker 1: in the league last year, and he was right behind 958 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 1: Robert Quinn and DeMarcus Lawrence on Pro Football Focus. Lawrence 959 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:50,400 Speaker 1: was seventeenth, Quinn was eighteenth, and then Carlos Dunlap was nineteenth. 960 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 1: He was higher than Jannick and Walkway. He was higher 961 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:58,800 Speaker 1: than Jadavian Clowney. He has even as a veteran, he 962 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,160 Speaker 1: has a lot of presents on that edge. He's a 963 00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:03,360 Speaker 1: guy that if they wanted to have a draft target, 964 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:08,279 Speaker 1: I'm all over the Carlos Dunlap trade train. At least 965 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,399 Speaker 1: let's give up a fourth or a fifth round pick 966 00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:12,279 Speaker 1: and try and go get the guy. But I also 967 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:16,240 Speaker 1: think it's awesome to look at some of these edge rushers. 968 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:19,160 Speaker 1: And the Draft show last Thursday brought up at edge 969 00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 1: rusher and Klavan Chase, and that was the pick that 970 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys actually had at pick seventeen. He's at edge 971 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:28,279 Speaker 1: rusher out of LSU, just a freakish athlete. And there 972 00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:32,160 Speaker 1: are a couple options there, whether it's a Chase on 973 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,640 Speaker 1: or maybe a guy out of Penn State like Yedder 974 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 1: Gross matos aj Epiness is another name out of Iowa. 975 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 1: There are edge rushers there to Danny's point in the 976 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 1: draft that can make you excited at pick seventeen about 977 00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,719 Speaker 1: filling that spot. And then all of a sudden you've 978 00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 1: got DeMarcus Lawrence, Gerald McCoy, don Terry Poe and then 979 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:53,920 Speaker 1: insert draft pick name here, and all of a sudden 980 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:57,800 Speaker 1: your defensive line is cooking. Yeah, Chase and I like 981 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: I like him a lot, But again, all of that's 982 00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:04,319 Speaker 1: gonna be contingent on where c J. Henderson falls. I mean, 983 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 1: if CJ. Henderson is CJ from from Florida, is that 984 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 1: we got to take that guy and there are a 985 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:13,000 Speaker 1: lot of other picks and guys that may be raided 986 00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:16,600 Speaker 1: ahead with the first pick. I am really and this 987 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: is something the philosophy that I just have not like, 988 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:22,440 Speaker 1: you know, being a part of and that's best player 989 00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 1: available because we have so many deficiencies on defense. But 990 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind being a part the best player available 991 00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 1: because I because I feel like, man, when you have 992 00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,400 Speaker 1: a need, when you have a need on defense, like 993 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 1: when everyone start having the CJ. Lamb conversation, if cjla 994 00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:41,279 Speaker 1: if CD excuse me, CD Lamb, Yeah, if Cede Lamb 995 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 1: is there, we take CD Lamb And I'm like, no, 996 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:46,680 Speaker 1: how do we take CD Lamb when our cornerback. You know, 997 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,239 Speaker 1: we're gonna start the season with Brown and Woozier and 998 00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:54,240 Speaker 1: Louise Lewis we need a cornerback right now. But I understand, 999 00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:58,560 Speaker 1: I completely get it. Best player available, and if Chason 1000 00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 1: is a guy that's there for us and he is 1001 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:02,800 Speaker 1: the best player available, I wouldn't have a problem with 1002 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 1: getting them. I'm with that on this. You've always got 1003 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,839 Speaker 1: to have need on some level in the draft. I mean, 1004 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:10,920 Speaker 1: you can't take a quarterback in the first round just 1005 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 1: because you might be the best guy on your board. 1006 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 1: But I think it would work out fine. Either edge 1007 00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,600 Speaker 1: rusher or corner. It's got to be it's gotta be 1008 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,000 Speaker 1: one of those two in my opinion, based on what's 1009 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,080 Speaker 1: out there. To answer Danny's question, because we touched on 1010 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 1: it last week. With Travis Frederick retiring, I still think 1011 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:33,800 Speaker 1: they've got enough internally where they feel good about, you know, 1012 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,760 Speaker 1: trying to replace him, whether it's Joe Looney just stepping 1013 00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:40,960 Speaker 1: back in, or Connor McGovern as an option, even Connor Williams, 1014 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:44,359 Speaker 1: who they think can play off five positions. They've got 1015 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:47,200 Speaker 1: enough flexibility, I think on the line where they don't 1016 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 1: have to spend a high draft pick there. Yeah, I 1017 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,000 Speaker 1: don't think a high draft pick will be the offensive line. 1018 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 1: It was just something where I was like, it feels 1019 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 1: like it's changing every week. I think maybe they'll use 1020 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,200 Speaker 1: that first pick maybe for an edge rusher because as 1021 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 1: the run defense was just so poor last year, and 1022 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:06,080 Speaker 1: I think if you can really secure this defensive line, 1023 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 1: that will in terms trickle down and help the rest 1024 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:11,480 Speaker 1: of the defense. Yes, and so that I just I 1025 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:14,719 Speaker 1: think that's where they're going to end up making that 1026 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:20,719 Speaker 1: first pick at seventeen. And I think kind of going 1027 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,240 Speaker 1: off of that, you look at some of the veteran 1028 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:26,440 Speaker 1: additions in that secondary. I mean, you resign guys like 1029 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown, You've got a couple guys in Jordan Lewis 1030 00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:33,719 Speaker 1: and Shadobe a Woozier that could be solid corners. And 1031 00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 1: then at the safety position you've got woods in Haha, 1032 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 1: Clinton Dix now back there. What's a better way to 1033 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:41,560 Speaker 1: make them better is make your defensive line rutter. And 1034 00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:44,439 Speaker 1: they're beefing up the defensive line. That's exactly what they've 1035 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:46,799 Speaker 1: been doing all offseason long. And if they find an 1036 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,320 Speaker 1: edge rusher, which I still think is one of the 1037 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 1: better needs of this Cowboys defense. To your point, Danny, 1038 00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 1: if you go out and get a guy that's going 1039 00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:58,040 Speaker 1: to find a way to stop the run defensively, it 1040 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 1: also makes your linebackers better, which in turn makes your 1041 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:04,600 Speaker 1: defense just as a whole better. I think that's an 1042 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 1: underrated look at how they could really improve. I know 1043 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:10,400 Speaker 1: a lot of emphasis and trust me, draft Twitter has 1044 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 1: been all over this. There's a lot of emphasis on 1045 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 1: the corners and the safeties. But one way to make 1046 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:18,520 Speaker 1: everyone on your team better with one pick is finding 1047 00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 1: a good edge rusher. And I think, yeah, looking for 1048 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,120 Speaker 1: Kyle You're right, But at the same time, you know, 1049 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 1: in the back half of our defense, we're even With 1050 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:31,480 Speaker 1: the signing of of Clinton Dix. I like him, I think, 1051 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:33,359 Speaker 1: and and a lot has been made about him being 1052 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,800 Speaker 1: a bridge player, not a guy is gonna be a mainstay, 1053 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:37,880 Speaker 1: but a guy that's gonna get us through the season 1054 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,040 Speaker 1: till we get to the guy that we really want. 1055 00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 1: You've talked a lot about Antoine Winfield Jr. Being a 1056 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,719 Speaker 1: guy that could come in and impact this defense immediately, 1057 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 1: you know, being even if he's a strong safety. I 1058 00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 1: know last year, Cowboy Nation, we wanted Thomas. We know 1059 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 1: we were crying for Jamal Adams players like that because 1060 00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:59,360 Speaker 1: we understand that we need a ball hawk. And with 1061 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:02,759 Speaker 1: the secondary coach and Al Harris, that's exactly what he's 1062 00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:04,880 Speaker 1: been preaching, saying that I want guys that touch the 1063 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:08,360 Speaker 1: ball every play, one way or another. And I'm just 1064 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:10,920 Speaker 1: not sold on what we're gonna do with Brown and 1065 00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 1: Woozy A. Lewis and even Kennedy, And I believe the 1066 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:17,200 Speaker 1: Kennedy signing was just special teams. I'm not saying that 1067 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:20,000 Speaker 1: he won't be a viable option for us, but again, 1068 00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 1: we need those guys that, look, we don't have to 1069 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,240 Speaker 1: worry about him. He can be that lockdown corner. I believe, 1070 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:28,719 Speaker 1: I believe honestly that Jones he was a beneficiary of 1071 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:30,759 Speaker 1: the fact that everyone knew that the guy on the 1072 00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:33,920 Speaker 1: other side of him was a little bit more susceptible 1073 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:38,160 Speaker 1: and weaker, and so they attacked him. And with all 1074 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 1: that being said, I mean, byer Jones cash out based 1075 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 1: off of that, but yeah he did. I mean, but 1076 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,160 Speaker 1: we gotta we have to, we have to, and I 1077 00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 1: mean we talked of there's so much being made about 1078 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:52,600 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper and the fact that you know he had 1079 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,800 Speaker 1: where he was at at at and T Stadium. He 1080 00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 1: loved that home cook and he played his butt off. 1081 00:55:57,640 --> 00:55:59,680 Speaker 1: But then when you went on the road, he was 1082 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:01,880 Speaker 1: it was horrible. Is a different and not horrible, but 1083 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 1: it's had different numbers. That was the same for our 1084 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,920 Speaker 1: defense man. They did not pack the defense with them 1085 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:09,400 Speaker 1: when they landed as stadiums on the road, and it 1086 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,960 Speaker 1: consequently you go game by game by game where the 1087 00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:16,080 Speaker 1: defense was just completely letting us down and giving up 1088 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 1: those drives, and you know, at the end of the 1089 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 1: second half, beginning of the third quarter, things like that 1090 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,680 Speaker 1: were just demoralizing and just killed the momentum where Dak 1091 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:26,120 Speaker 1: Prescott was having to play a lot from behind and 1092 00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:29,319 Speaker 1: just make miraculous throws and make plays to get us 1093 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,800 Speaker 1: back on the board. So we have got to finish 1094 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 1: this off because our defense last year, no matter what 1095 00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:38,200 Speaker 1: the numbers say, our defense played poorly. Here's the other 1096 00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:40,520 Speaker 1: thing too, about the cornerback position. I know this can't 1097 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 1: be the only factor when you're drafting, but you gotta 1098 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:46,800 Speaker 1: look long term to a certain degree, and I believe 1099 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:50,160 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown's getting a new three year deal, but Cheeto, 1100 00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis, and I believe Kennedy one year deals essentially 1101 00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 1: last year their deal. So you gotta look at what 1102 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 1: your cornerback position is gonna look like pass this season 1103 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 1: and need is I think they need another talented guy 1104 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 1: there anyway, But you got to start looking at what 1105 00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:09,799 Speaker 1: your roster is going to look back look like back 1106 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 1: there in twenty twenty one too. I will say, here's 1107 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:15,200 Speaker 1: the most exciting part is that for the first time 1108 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,720 Speaker 1: in a decade, we have the new coaching staff, which 1109 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 1: means that everything that has been a trend for the 1110 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:24,000 Speaker 1: last couple of draft years could be out the window. 1111 00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 1: So the back of the Cowboys haven't really prioritized defensive 1112 00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:28,720 Speaker 1: back to the last couple of years. Early on in 1113 00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:32,120 Speaker 1: the draft that could be their first pick. That's a 1114 00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:35,400 Speaker 1: great point, and you could talk about even coaching in general. 1115 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:36,960 Speaker 1: I mean, look at the way that we're going to 1116 00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:40,000 Speaker 1: attack the fifty three man roster. It's going to be 1117 00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:44,160 Speaker 1: completely different. It's breaking all of those norms that you're 1118 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 1: used to seeing for the Cowboys, and I think a 1119 00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:48,800 Speaker 1: lot of people forget about that because they've been so 1120 00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 1: concentrated on certain ways that the Cowboys operate, whether it 1121 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 1: be with the new or the old coaching staff now 1122 00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 1: moving in the new one, things are going to change, 1123 00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 1: whether you like it or not. Moving forward here for 1124 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:05,760 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, but I think that's gonna do it 1125 00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:08,920 Speaker 1: here for Talking Cowboys. As we're running up on our time, 1126 00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:11,520 Speaker 1: a lot is that is today? I think that's it, 1127 00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:14,120 Speaker 1: which is crazy went buying a blink of an eye. 1128 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 1: But hopefully over the past hour we were able to 1129 00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:22,280 Speaker 1: entertain you enough during your respective quarantine and shelter in 1130 00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 1: place viewing, I guess, and listening here on this podcast. 1131 00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:28,280 Speaker 1: But guys, it's been a whole lot of fun and 1132 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 1: look forward to doing again next week.
