We got a lot we're 0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:31.600 going to talk about today. We got to mix a 0:01:31.840 --> 0:01:35.760 mix in a few different topics here. Assistant coaches for 0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:38.440 the Cowboys talked yesterday. We'll talk about that a little bit, 0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:41.400 some of the things that stood out there. Let's talk 0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:43.880 a little bit too about franchise tags. That's gonna the 0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:46.640 window open yesterday. Cowboys and every other team in the 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:50.200 NFL have until March fourth to decide on that if 0:01:50.200 --> 0:01:51.800 they're going to be a play, if there will be 0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:54.040 a player that they will use a fan franchise tag. 0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:56.840 And we'll talk about that, and then we'll get some 0:01:56.960 --> 0:01:59.400 draft previews Brian and Nick. We're going to try to 0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:02.400 do this every episode now in the draft, let you 0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:05.040 guys kind of give us a little taste of the 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:07.960 kinds of things you're talking about over on the Draft Show. Today, 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:10.080 we'll focus in on a couple of players that we 0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:13.160 think are should be or could be targets for the 0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.560 Cowboys in the first round and let you guys give 0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:16.600 us some breakdowns there. 0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:18.959 We may even get to a little Yetny time with ag. 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:20.919 We'll sew that goes if we get some time. We 0:02:21.000 --> 0:02:23.000 got fan questions also lined up. We got so much 0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:25.240 stuff we can hit today, so we'll see how far 0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:27.600 we get into this. As Amber always says, we'll only 0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:28.600 get to about half of it. 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:31.680 Yeah, I was about to say false promises around here. 0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:34.000 So that will only mean that my show Rundown is 0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:34.799 ready for next week. 0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:38.079 All right, let's start first with the assistant coaches they 0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:40.480 spoke yesterday. I know everybody had a chance to look 0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:44.160 at some of the different information or look at some 0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:46.440 of the quotes that came out of that. Was there 0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:50.000 anything particular that stood out to you as you looked 0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:52.000 at that, or as you listen to those coaches talk 0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:55.560 that you think that impressed you in some way? 0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:57.920 Yeah, I would like to start with Clayton Adams, just 0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:02.080 because I think there's more intrigue in him than any 0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:05.160 of the other coordinators or assistants. I give the caveat 0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:08.200 of Evraflus just because he is the former head coach 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:11.160 in the building, but Clayton Adams, I was really intrigued 0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:13.000 to see what he had to say, and he definitely 0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:15.200 backed that up. I wrote down a few notes that 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:16.960 I thought were interesting from him. We could start with 0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:21.200 the quote that stood out to me more than any 0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:23.560 of them, and the fifteen minute availability he had is 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:25.120 how can we be multiple? 0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:26.240 How can we be different? 0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:29.560 And I think that is a key philosophy that this 0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:32.040 team needed last year, it needed probably. 0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:32.600 The last two years. 0:03:32.880 --> 0:03:34.800 And if they can figure out how to marry that 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:38.360 concept with what Schottenheimer already has in place, that'd be huge. 0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:41.080 And what does that mean? That means being creative in 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:44.760 the run game? In Clayton Adams's case, it includes pre 0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:47.800 snap motion, which Brian Schottenheimer has talked about many times 0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:50.240 how that helps in the past game. That was the 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:53.440 quote that really stood out to me. And then there 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.360 was a question asked as well about Clayton Adams. He 0:03:56.400 --> 0:03:58.600 comes from the Cardinals, he was the offensive line coach 0:03:58.640 --> 0:04:01.480 there for a few years. He obviously had Kyler Murray 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:05.320 running the ball behind him. Dak Prescott is not Kyler 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:08.400 Murray from a running perspective, but he was basically asked, 0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:10.440 is there anything you would like to use with Dak 0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:12.640 from a mobility standpoint, so that you can keep him 0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:16.240 involved and you know, have that same type of offensive 0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:18.920 concept move to Dallas. He said, if you're reading off 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:21.799 of a play, it takes a digit off the board. Defensively, 0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:23.800 what does that mean? You have one player on the 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:26.520 defense that always has to be accounted for, Dak Prescott 0:04:26.960 --> 0:04:29.640 on every snap. If the threat to run is there, Now, 0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:31.720 what does that look like with Dak Prescott's health. That's 0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:33.200 what we're gonna to figure out down the line. And 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:35.400 Clayton Adams said yesterday that you know, they're they're at 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:37.000 a period in time right now where they can't even 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:39.680 talk football with the players. They can really only introduce 0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:41.640 themselves over text or call and say hey, you know 0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:45.559 what's up. But once those football conversations start to come around, 0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:48.280 maybe OTA's or mini camp, that's that's gonna be a 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:51.200 big one, just because you know, how healthy is Dak 0:04:51.200 --> 0:04:54.520 Prescott's legs and they have four years that they need 0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:57.240 to use Dak Prescott in so are they are they 0:04:57.279 --> 0:04:59.200 willing to run him as much as they did in 0:04:59.240 --> 0:05:01.159 twenty three or as much as they did, you know 0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:03.960 prior to his injury in twenty and then the last thing. 0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:06.599 And I don't want to take everything from my mansama 0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:10.080 right here, but create violence, run hit. Everything we do 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:12.640 schematically needs to play into that. 0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:13.360 That's the big one. 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:16.400 And I think if that can marry well with what 0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:18.680 Schottenheimer does in the past game, if they can have 0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.160 a little bit more violence, a little bit more toughness offensively, 0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:23.840 then obviously it would transition over defensively as well. 0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:26.520 Never say that you don't have a few words. You're 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:27.640 a man of not few words. 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:31.400 Sorry, I took a page out of my book at 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:35.200 that time, so thank you for what you did. Where 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:38.200 I think a mandate came down from I know, from 0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:40.880 the offensive side of the ball. I heard the word toughness, 0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:43.120 and we talk about toughness quite a bit, and I. 0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:46.120 Think the mandate is to will McLay into. 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:48.320 These scouts and to the personnel guys and gallas that 0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:50.080 work in this building, is that. 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:53.400 They need to get to be a tougher football team. 0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:55.400 And that's you know, we talk about the violence and 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:58.040 things like that, but now you look at you you 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.920 have an idea. As a former person guy myself, if 0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:03.000 I'm listening to these coaches talk and trying to get 0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:06.800 an idea, get a pattern of what I'm hearing. It's 0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:10.680 like we need to earmark tough football players, and it's 0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:12.839 you know, to play this game, you have to be tough, 0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:15.680 but there takes a little bit more of an inner toughness. 0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:17.760 And we've seen this. This team has been good enough 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:20.400 to win division titles, has it been good enough to 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:22.719 win conference titles, get go through the playoffs. 0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:26.200 Tough teams do that. Tough mentally, tough physically. 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:29.039 I think the mandate from the coaches is we want 0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:32.320 to be a tougher team. And so with that being said, 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:36.200 will McClay, the personnel folks over there, got their got 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:38.600 their marching orders, and I think you're going to see 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:40.320 a direction of that way going that way. 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:43.880 Yeah, I'm right on board with you guys. With that 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:46.040 being the main thing that stood out to me during 0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:47.400 his time with the media. 0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:48.720 We talked about it last year. 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:50.919 You look at other teams around the NFL and we 0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:54.159 talked about that whole point of how are these other 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:58.400 teams being more aggressive on the field, and it's something 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:01.320 that the Cowboys have and you don't see that same 0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:04.440 type of aggressiveness when they're on the field playing and 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:07.680 offensively that's an area where it's highly needed, and right 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:10.960 now it's difficult for them to answer, like what is 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:13.760 exactly gonna look like because you still don't have all 0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:16.680 your players yet, all your personnel in that area. We 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:18.840 got to wait until the draft and you start building 0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:22.720 that roster. But the fact that that's the question that's 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:27.520 being asked in like with him coming in here and saying, Okay, 0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:30.960 that's a great area. How how are we gonna be 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:34.080 more violent? How are we gonna be more aggressively aggressive? 0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:36.040 How are we going to allow these players to run 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:40.280 more free and be able to just hit and be 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:44.560 more violent in that way. So right now, again there's 0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:47.200 not much that they can answer at this moment, but 0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:49.760 the fact that those are the questions that are being presented, 0:07:49.840 --> 0:07:52.720 the things that are being talked about, that's something that's 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:56.800 a positive when you that you want to hear because 0:07:56.840 --> 0:08:00.560 we talked so much about just being very aggressive in 0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:03.960 the passing game, in the run, being able. And something 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:05.840 that also stood out to me was the fact that 0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:09.320 he talked so much about the offensive lineman, the lineman 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:11.920 and some of the things that they're looking to improve 0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:14.760 in that area that we know that's a huge part 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:16.240 right there. We still don't know what's going to happen 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:18.920 at the running back position, but it all starts with 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:22.440 the line, and he mentioned that that's a high area 0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:24.960 of focus for him coming in and just trying to 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:27.320 figure out what they do there with the offensive line. 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:30.400 So I hear violence a lot when we're talking here. 0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:32.840 My question as I was listening to some of those 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:40.439 comments is is violence is the ability to be more 0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:43.160 violent more you know, I don't know, to be able 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:45.160 to push your opponent around. Is that really something that 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:48.120 a coach can create or is that really about the 0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:52.160 player and the player having to have that mental makeup 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:54.280 to just be that type of player. 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.560 I think it's some mentality. But I also think that 0:08:56.679 --> 0:09:01.200 when you evaluate your team, you can weed out who 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:04.960 you feel like, okay, when it comes to mental toughness 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.959 or physical toughness, these are the players that we can 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:11.280 surely hang our hats on. I think that they're going 0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:14.120 to be. I think this defensive unit is going to 0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:17.280 look remarkably different from what we've seen the last couple 0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:20.400 of years. I think it's different scheme wise, and I 0:09:20.440 --> 0:09:23.040 think it's going to look different personnel wise, just because 0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:25.880 of how players come and go the situation that the 0:09:25.920 --> 0:09:28.920 Cowboys are up against with their cap in some areas. 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:32.080 So I think that to me, now this is the opportunity. 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:35.360 As I mentioned earlier, this personnel department now has the 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:38.080 task of going out and getting that those type of players. 0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:42.280 The players we saw a tough mentality in the early 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:45.559 nineties with Jimmy Johnson. That was a tough If you 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:48.480 ever went to a practice in Austin at Saint Ed's, 0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:51.440 you saw toughness. You ever went to you know, some 0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:54.280 of these practice, even adjacent Garrett practice, had elements of 0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:57.800 toughness to it because of the way that they work 0:09:57.840 --> 0:10:00.760 the players. So to work the players that way, you 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:03.920 have to be able to find players that can adapt 0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:07.520 and and and welcome that kind of coaching, but play 0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:09.200 with that kind of mentality. 0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:12.240 It's kind of both as well. It's absolutely voaching and 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:13.840 it is and it's. 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:15.400 Not a ride defence thing because you know me, I 0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:17.000 hate the ride defense. I want to give you an 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:19.960 answer one way or another. But they are now tasked 0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:25.000 the personal guys. They're tasked to trying to find tougher players. 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:28.080 And like I said earlier, this game playing it is tough. 0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:31.679 It's tough to play, but you have to have a 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:35.880 certain level of that little bit more toughness in order 0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:38.040 to be that type of team that you want to be. 0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:40.920 Yeah, and it certainly doesn't happen overnight either. No, it's 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:43.600 it's it's gonna take some time. And that's where you 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:46.800 hope that this staff has the time to to really 0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:48.920 enact that and put that in place, not only from 0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:53.160 a personnel acquisition standpoint, but from a philosophy standpoint. Again, 0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:55.360 it's not gonna happen overnight. It can't happen in one season. 0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:57.680 So you know, if this staff remains in place for 0:10:57.760 --> 0:10:59.840 three years, what does that look like compared to today? 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:03.679 I think sometimes you either have it or you don't. 0:11:03.800 --> 0:11:07.240 You know, physically, yeah, you're gonna have some limitations there, 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:09.720 and some players might not be able to do the 0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:12.680 same as others. But it helps a lot depending on 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:15.040 the voice that you have, the voice that you're listening to, 0:11:15.200 --> 0:11:18.319 and somebody that brings that in and starts changing that culture. 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.000 Like you talk to me, and if I listen to 0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:23.120 David Goggins, all of a sudden, I feel like I 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:25.199 can be a Navy seals and being that cold water 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:27.760 in the ocean, is that it's not actually gonna have 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:31.520 No I probably quit after two seconds. But I think 0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:35.920 the voice that you have it's highly important. It creates 0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:40.080 and it has this thing where it's contagious and everybody 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:43.000 else around you. I think it starts making you tougher. 0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:45.840 And when you see somebody else trying to be tougher, 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:48.720 you yourself. You want to be able to keep up 0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:52.440 and try to keep up. So I think it's maybe 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:55.400 not with every single player it's gonna be that instance, 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:59.880 because again everyone's physically different, but it's a start and 0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:03.520 towards the right direction and trying to change the mentality 0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:06.240 and the whole culture inside the locker room. 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:07.920 Yeah, I think you getting a real quick Derek give 0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:10.520 I think you get a situation. For examples of last 0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:14.320 year's team. I don't think Zach Martin was perfect at 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:17.480 all health wise, we all understand that. But Zach Martin, 0:12:18.000 --> 0:12:22.240 future Hall of Fame player, playing through injury. That's an 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:25.559 element of toughness. And if you're you know, brock Hoffman, 0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:28.400 and you're Tyler Smith and your other guys and you're 0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:31.760 watching what he's going through and playing, it's not perfect, 0:12:32.160 --> 0:12:34.720 but you get that element of like what. 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:37.560 It takes to go out there and play every day. 0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:40.080 And I think those are the types of examples that 0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:42.680 you need to get on this football team. We talk 0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:45.400 about this. Every time that you play the forty nine ers. 0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:48.400 You feel like you feel like that you're not tougher 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:51.480 than them. There's a certain element to this, and it's 0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:53.440 one thing to talk about it. It's one thing to 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:56.320 execute it. They're talking about it right now. They need 0:12:56.320 --> 0:12:58.679 to make sure that they execute it. But that's through 0:12:58.720 --> 0:12:59.240 the players. 0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:01.720 Were going to take our first break when we come back, 0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:03.959 We're gonna talk about the franchise attag. We're going to 0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:06.400 talk about any players that we think could be possibilities 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:08.880 and maybe what the advantages could be for the Cowboys 0:13:08.920 --> 0:13:09.920 if they decided to go that way. 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:12.120 We'll do when we come back.

All right, 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:11.640 let's talk about the franchise tag. That window open yesterday. 0:16:11.640 --> 0:16:15.200 It'll run through March fourth, Just so you have an 0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:18.600 idea of what the schedule looks like. Free agency, the 0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:22.040 legal tampering period will start on March tenth. It'll run 0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:26.160 through four pm Eastern on March twelfth, and that's when 0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:29.800 free agency will begin four pm Eastern on March twelve, twelve. 0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:33.880 That all being said, let's talk specifically about the franchise tag. 0:16:34.400 --> 0:16:37.320 In my opinion, O SOO DIGGI Zua is probably the 0:16:37.360 --> 0:16:41.080 most likely candidate, if win anyone, to be franchised by 0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:43.880 the Cowboys. And I say if anyone, because there's a 0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:46.520 good chance the Cowboys don't use franchise tag. But I'd 0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:48.920 like each of you to give me the best reason 0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:51.400 you can come up with as to why Dallas should 0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:56.320 use the franchise tag. On osa should should, we'll get 0:16:56.320 --> 0:16:58.200 to the should not, but let's talk about the should. 0:16:59.240 --> 0:17:02.120 I think should you get consistency at that three tech spot, 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:05.440 and you want as much consistency as possible, I think 0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:08.679 from a personnel standpoint, so that you're not having to 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:12.280 marry so much change personnel wise, with so much change 0:17:12.320 --> 0:17:15.320 already coming schematically, are you willing to pay a little 0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:16.840 bit more than what he would probably get on the 0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:20.720 open market per year if you were franchise tag? That's 0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:23.199 gonna be the question, how much is consistency on that 0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:25.560 defensive line important to you as a personnel guy. 0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:27.800 So I think that would probably be the strong case 0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:28.240 for why. 0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:33.800 Yeah, I think the why would be because we finally 0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:37.520 have got to the point where you drafted a player, 0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:40.479 you've developed him, and now you're starting to see the 0:17:40.520 --> 0:17:43.800 benefits from the development. There were times where I kind 0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:45.760 of felt like, oh, soo DIGGI Zua was a really 0:17:45.760 --> 0:17:47.880 good college player, and I mean a good college player 0:17:47.920 --> 0:17:50.240 because he was playing like thirteen games, but it was 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:53.439 week fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, and seventeen that you were kind 0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:55.840 of looking like, Okay, where did this player go? He 0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:58.239 plays so hard, he got wre down. You know, there 0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:01.159 were some struggles there the last month season, but he 0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:03.640 was able to play through all the season as a 0:18:03.640 --> 0:18:06.959 as a high level player, and you saw his ability 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:09.480 to tackle, You saw his ability to take on blockers, 0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:11.679 you saw his ability as a pass rusher. You know, 0:18:11.680 --> 0:18:14.600 there were so many things that he got better at. 0:18:14.720 --> 0:18:18.600 So if you're interested in keeping that going forward and 0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:22.040 seeing continued development, you know, you take that tag, you 0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:23.639 put it on him for one year and you have 0:18:23.800 --> 0:18:26.160 it and then you work from there so you don't 0:18:26.200 --> 0:18:29.000 lose the opportunity to have a player that looks like 0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:30.280 he's on the rise right now. 0:18:30.320 --> 0:18:32.359 As far as a guy you developed. 0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:36.240 Yeah, I don't think personally, I don't think there's anyone 0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:38.200 on the ruster that I would want to use the 0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:41.840
