1 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,480 Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 2 00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:10,360 Speaker 2: Cowboys. 4 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 1: This is these Cowboys storylines with Nick Eatman. 5 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 3: What is up? It is time for another Cowboys Storyline edition. 6 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 3: It's Monday afternoon here as the Cowboys are done with 7 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 3: the preseason. We've got one week to go until it's 8 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 3: game week and then all bullets are flying at that 9 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 3: point and the week one will start Cowboys and Giants talk. 10 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 3: We've had some storylines here in the neck in the 11 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 3: last forty eight hours, seventy two hours, the entire weekend. 12 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 3: That was one of the craziest preseason finales that I 13 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,279 Speaker 3: can remember in a long time. I'm and a lot 14 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 3: of a lot of things to discuss, and let's just 15 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 3: get right to it. I mean, the trade for Trey 16 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 3: Lance caught me by surprise. I had caught I think 17 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 3: everybody a little bit by surprise, even the Cowboys to 18 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 3: the to the extent of they they said, Jerry said, 19 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 3: we didn't want to get off the phone. 20 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 2: Uh. 21 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 3: With the forty nine ers, they were they were fine 22 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 3: with the compensation. That's probably the one thing that that 23 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 3: any fan or or any critic of the trade would 24 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 3: would say is that the Cowboys maybe gave up too 25 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 3: much for a quarterback that who knows how that's going 26 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 3: to turn out. But that's kind of what you do, right, 27 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's what you you always do as 28 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 3: you as you you try to project what you think 29 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 3: you can get out of the player, and and then 30 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 3: you do that when when he's a rookie. You do 31 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 3: that when you're trading for someone. So me personally, I'll 32 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: just I'll just throw my two cents. I have a 33 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 3: story on the website, may still be on the right 34 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 3: side of our of our new we have so much 35 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 3: going on. But it basically was a column that said, 36 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 3: here's five reasons to like this move. And I wrote 37 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 3: it during the game, which is always fun to do 38 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 3: in a preseason game. But you can get away with 39 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 3: that in the third preseason game. I some of the 40 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 3: reasons there. It's just a it's a free look. I 41 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 3: say free. You have to take his contract, but it's 42 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 3: a look of a guy that was a top top 43 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 3: three pick overall. Should he have been picked third overall? 44 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,119 Speaker 3: Probably not, probably not, but he was. He's he's got 45 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 3: some talent. I think the Cowboys had pretty high grade 46 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 3: on him. I don't know if it was a first round, 47 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 3: maybe a second, but you know, they they saw that 48 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 3: the talent as well, and they wanted to develop a 49 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 3: young quarterback. And you can do that when you have 50 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 3: you know, you have Dak Prescott, you have Cooper Rush, 51 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 3: and here's a chance to do that. Think of it 52 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 3: like this. Think of it as Dak is going to 53 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 3: be the quarterback next year. Nothing changes, and they want 54 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 3: to draft a quarterback. They say they want to take one, 55 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 3: an athletic guy that needs work in the fourth round. 56 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 3: So that's what they did. Instead of getting him next year, 57 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 3: you get him this year and he gets to develop 58 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 3: all year, be on the scout team, learn from the room, 59 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 3: and maybe he plays some. I mean they hope not, 60 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 3: but he could. And so next year he's your guy. 61 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 3: Now he's a four point five million dollars, so I 62 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 3: think the goal would be for him to be the 63 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 3: backup quarterback next season. Cooper Rush's contract would probably be 64 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 3: around that. I think at that point, the cap HiT's 65 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 3: going to be around three to four million. If they 66 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 3: can switch that out, you know, and and he's the 67 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 3: backup next year, that's what you're paying for a backup 68 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 3: quarterback one that that has a lot of upside. That's 69 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 3: that's what I'm thinking there, and you're doing it for 70 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 3: a fourth round pick, so I think it's a it 71 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 3: was a good move. I'm fine with it. Yeah, I 72 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 3: thought they might trade for something that might help them 73 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: more this year, but that's what they chose to do, 74 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 3: and I'm I'm all good with that. So that's one 75 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 3: of the big storylines. I would imagine some of the questions, 76 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 3: uh and calls. Hopefully we get some calls here, one eight, eight, eight, 77 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: five five to two nine seven. I want to hear 78 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 3: from you guys. I want to hear what you think 79 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 3: about the trade. Also in the text line eight one seven, 80 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 3: two nine zero three two nine eight, We've got some 81 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 3: text messages already rolling in there, so we can we 82 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 3: can kind of get to that. Let's see if I 83 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 3: can get one on I said, dex future. Actually, I'll 84 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 3: come back to that in a little bit. This is 85 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 3: more about awesome Richards. Let's go back. Let's go back 86 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 3: to some of the storylines. Obviously, the another big one 87 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 3: will be the cuts that happen tomorrow. The Cowboys will 88 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 3: get down to fifty three players by three eight pm 89 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 3: on Tuesday. It won't won't be straight cuts. I think 90 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 3: what ninety to fifty three they'll be, you know, that's 91 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 3: what thirty seven guys mostly will be cuts. There will 92 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 3: be some that, you know, like Ronald Jones goes to 93 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 3: the suspension list. We'll see what they do with Josh Ball. 94 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 3: Looks like he could be out for an extended period 95 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 3: of time. The interesting thing there, if you're not familiar 96 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 3: with the rules, is that if you can put a 97 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 3: guy on injured reserve to return, but he's got to 98 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 3: be on the roster for one day. So if they 99 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 3: decide they want to keep Josh Ball the availability for 100 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 3: him to come back at some point, then he does 101 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 3: have to be on the roster for a day. To 102 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 3: do that, you you probably will cut a vested veteran 103 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 3: that you feel confident you can get back or you 104 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 3: have an agreement with. They've done that in the past 105 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 3: with a long snapper Jake McQuaid and CJ. Goodwin. You 106 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 3: could do that again with the long snapper Trent Sieg 107 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 3: and maybe CJ. Goodwin again if you wanted to do that, 108 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 3: If you wanted to get Josh Ball and make sure 109 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 3: that he would be a guy that they could come 110 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 3: back after his injury. It looks like he has like 111 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 3: a hip strain there that's going to be out reportedly 112 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 3: maybe two months. We'll see what Mike McCarthy says in 113 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 3: his press conference today. So, uh, roster cuts. You know, 114 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 3: Brendan Aubrey, does he make the team as the kicker? 115 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 3: I think he does. I think he's done what you've 116 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 3: asked him to do. Would like to have seen a 117 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 3: little bit more. I want to see the mid range kicks. 118 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 3: You know, he missed an extra point, He's missed a 119 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 3: fifty nine yard er. He's made a fifty nine yarder. 120 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 3: That's that is not what what what will define you 121 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 3: as a kicker though. What defines you as a kicker 122 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 3: is can you make a forty four yard field goal 123 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 3: on the road? Can you can you make all your 124 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 3: extra points? Can you do those type of things? And 125 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 3: he didn't get a chance to see that. But I 126 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 3: don't think they're going to I think they're gonna make 127 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 3: the move and keep them. Now, what's what's the least 128 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 3: to look like? Probably not that long for him. I 129 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 3: would think if he struggles even in the first game, 130 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 3: I think they would probably find another option. I mean, 131 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 3: that's just kind of where it is. That's what you 132 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 3: can do with Kicker. You don't have then there's no 133 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 3: playbook to learn. You just come in and you kick. 134 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 3: So I do think that that he will be the 135 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 3: guy that goes to New York. I don't see that 136 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 3: happening them making a move right now. But that doesn't 137 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 3: necessarily mean that that he'll be here forever. I mean, 138 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: that's that's the nature of the of that position there 139 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 3: at Kicker. So okay, let's let's move on to questions. 140 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 3: Trying to find a question here about Dak, he says, 141 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 3: I had. This one's from Dan from Philly. He says 142 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 3: on Lance it's a fourth round flyer, just like Dak 143 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 3: was years ago. True, I mean, fourth round, that's what 144 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 3: the fourth round is. I think that position in the 145 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 3: round is always that way. I mean it's it's always 146 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 3: it's the one round that seems like you can get 147 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 3: really really great players and you also can get busts. 148 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 3: It happens in all the rounds, third round, second round, 149 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 3: But it just seems like the high to low is 150 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 3: is none greater in the fourth round. And because I 151 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 3: went back and looked at a fourth round picks, and 152 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 3: there have been some good ones. I mean, you think 153 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 3: about the last four franchise tags the Cowboys have given 154 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 3: out are to fourth round picks Tony Pollard, Dalton Schultz, 155 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 3: Dak Prescott twice. So yes, good good players in the 156 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 3: fourth round. Charles Tapper was also a fourth round pick, 157 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 3: drafted ahead of Dak that year. B W Webb Dooran's 158 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 3: armstrong good, you know, really good player. I mean it 159 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 3: for every for every Dak, there's a Charles Tapper, and 160 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,839 Speaker 3: that's what you're doing here in the fourth round. I mean, 161 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 3: maybe maybe this quarterback is going to be, you know, 162 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 3: a really good player. Maybe it doesn't pan out. They 163 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 3: got to figure out a fifth year option on him 164 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 3: and all that kind of stuff, but I think it 165 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 3: was just worth trying. And Jerry said it the other day. 166 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 3: I mean he said, they try this plan a lot. 167 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 3: They've tried it with They try to do it as 168 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 3: much as they can. They were going to draft Jalen 169 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 3: Hurt what was it three years ago. They were going 170 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 3: to draft him in probably the third round or so Dak. 171 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 3: That had nothing to do with Dak. They just they 172 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 3: wanted to develop young quarterbacks. They really liked him. They 173 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 3: probably weren't gonna do it in the second. They were 174 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 3: probably gonna wait to the third, maybe the fourth. He 175 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 3: didn't last that long, obviously, and now we all know 176 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 3: that's he's one of the biggest you know, uh pains 177 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 3: in the Cowboys side right now because they're gonna have 178 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 3: to deal with him. And he's a great player, and 179 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 3: they liked him, and not sure what that would have 180 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 3: meant for Dak and all that, but they did. 181 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 4: Uh. 182 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 3: They they've done this plan a lot. This other question 183 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 3: that Dan from Philly had was to semi Fojoco, Bohanna, Cox, 184 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 3: and Joseph survive cut day. It's going straight in on it, right, 185 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 3: all four of them? No, No, I'll just answer that. 186 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,199 Speaker 3: Do they all four together as a group? No, they 187 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 3: don't all four make it each guy, semi Fojoko, Bohanna Cox, 188 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 3: and Joseph. I think if I and as someone asked 189 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 3: me the other day, if I was gonna do a 190 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 3: fifty three man projection, and that probably takes the whole show, 191 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 3: and I figured, with all the news happened, I wouldn't 192 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 3: do that. It's not gonna have a long shelf life 193 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 3: because news will start trickling out some today maybe tomorrow. 194 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 3: If I were to do a fifty three man projection 195 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 3: of what I would do right now for Semi Fajoko, 196 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: Bohanna Cox and Joseph neither of those four would make 197 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 3: the team for me, maybe Jabril Cox. But I'm here 198 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 3: and that that's going to be a close one. I mean, 199 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 3: the thing about him, he didn't really do a whole lot, 200 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 3: didn't make a lot of plays this year. But it's 201 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 3: a thin position at linebacker, so you better have you 202 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 3: better have some some other option if it's not going 203 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 3: to be from him. So, uh, well, we'll see how 204 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 3: how that, how that happens with with the cuts next 205 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 3: or tomorrow. But of those four guys, now I don't 206 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 3: I don't see that happening. Uh, But there's always gonna 207 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 3: be some surprises, so we'll see. We'll see what happens there. 208 00:10:55,360 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 3: All right, Umm, let's go with uh which Tall Kansas 209 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 3: with Starl Kansas is from Jay hen Is? What stat 210 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 3: line for Deuce Vaughan would you consider a good return 211 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 3: on investment for keeping him on the fifty three man 212 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 3: roster this year? What stat line he'll need? A stat line? Honestly, 213 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 3: I don't. I wouldn't. I don't think you have to 214 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 3: justify it that way. Is he a playmaker that that 215 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 3: other teams have to account for? If if he is, 216 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 3: if he's a guy that you're like, Okay, watch this guy, 217 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 3: watch watch Vaughan. They'd like to do this with them 218 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 3: and this, and uh, he's tough to find and locate 219 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 3: and when he does, he can make plays and all that. 220 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 3: And if he's if he's that guy, then that's good enough. 221 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 3: That's what you need. That's what this team needs. They 222 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 3: need players that can that can make plays. You can 223 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 3: throw any kind of stats you want on there, but 224 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 3: just just be a guy that that the other teams 225 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 3: are are worrying about. If he's that, then that's good enough. 226 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 3: He'll make the stats will come, the stats will be there. 227 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 3: But if he's somebody that you can pair up with 228 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 3: Tony Pollard and he can line him out and do 229 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 3: some things, then whatever he is, if he's on the 230 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 3: field and he's playned, he's good enough to be a 231 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 3: guy you put on offense. That's good enough for me. 232 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 3: All right, let's go, let's take a quick break real 233 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 3: quick and let me figure out some of these questions. 234 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 3: On the text line I'd love to hear from you 235 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 3: one A eight eight five five two two nine seven 236 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 3: will be right back.

Let me know what you think 286 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 3: about the Trey Lance move like you like it hate it. 287 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 3: I really don't understand anyone that would hate it. I 288 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 3: just think you know it's there's there's in anything the 289 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 3: Cowboys do. You can either you know, like it, love it, whatever, 290 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 3: and they get criticized for it. But in this case, 291 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 3: you know, you're just trying to You're not only looking 292 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 3: at this year. See, That's that's what I think a 293 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 3: lot of people do get caught up on instead of thinking, 294 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 3: all right, how are we going to do this year, how 295 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 3: we're gonna beat the giants? All this kind of stuff, 296 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 3: which is what the Cowboys are focused on but you 297 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 3: also you're not going to ignore situations of you know, 298 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 3: can can we get better down the road? Can this 299 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 3: be a guy? Would this be worth it to take 300 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 3: a flyer on this guy and see if if if 301 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 3: Trey Lance can you know, can figure it out in Dallas? 302 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 3: And and you know he's been injured a little bit. 303 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 3: I think he's going to be able to help on 304 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 3: the scout team this year, you know, and that's he's 305 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 3: an athletic quarterback. They're going to face some athletic quarterbacks 306 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 3: as well, so that that's a plus for this year. 307 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 3: Plus he'll he'll learn, he'll get better. Does he play 308 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 3: in games? Who knows? Now. There's also been a lot 309 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 3: of talk too about Jerry and and and talking to 310 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 3: Dak about this move. And I got asked on the 311 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 3: radio this morning when I one five to three of 312 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 3: the fan in Dallas get asked about where do I 313 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 3: fall on that? And I think it's a tricky one 314 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 3: because on one hand, yes, Jerry, he's the GM, he's the 315 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 3: owner and GM he can do whatever he wants. He 316 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 3: didn't have to ask anybody's opinion on this, And especially 317 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 3: when you're trying to do something quickly. You don't want to, 318 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 3: you don't wanna you know, have a competitive disadvantage, and 319 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 3: you got him on the phone. Let's let's, you know, 320 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 3: get it done. So I could definitely see that point. 321 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 3: But let's not forget that Dak does get treated differently. 322 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 3: They they ask him to go look at players in 323 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 3: the draft, receivers. He talked to Jalen Tolbert before they 324 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 3: even drafted him. They want his opinion and valuate these guys. 325 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 3: He was calling plays the other night. That's not what coaches, 326 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 3: I mean, quarterbacks have to do all the time when 327 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 3: they're not playing in the game. So my point is 328 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 3: is they do value his opinion. So in this particular 329 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 3: case they didn't do it. That's fine. But also I 330 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 3: wouldn't just stop it cold on. He's the GM, he 331 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 3: could do what he wants because they do ask Dak's 332 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 3: opinion there. So I don't know if Dak was upset 333 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 3: by that. He was definitely not feeling great the other 334 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 3: night after the game, he wasn't in in his best mood. 335 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 3: I think it had more to do with Will Greer 336 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 3: than anybody else. All right, let's go to a question 337 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 3: here from Kevin from Woodbridge, Virginia. He said, why is 338 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 3: everyone getting so worked up about this trade? Trey is here, 339 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 3: sit and learn. Think of Jordan Love sitting behind Aaron 340 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 3: Rodgers for three years. He's got three years potentially left 341 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 3: on his rookie deal. He cost us a fourth round pick. 342 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 3: This is a good thing. If Dak responds the way 343 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 3: Aaron responded to Love, all of this, well, it will 344 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 3: be for good TV chatter, nothing more. Let's hope Dak 345 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 3: doesn't respond like Aaron Rodgers did. Let's hope that that 346 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 3: doesn't happen, because that was messy. And then now he's 347 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 3: sitting with someone else with the Jets. I mean, I 348 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 3: don't know if this Jordan Love comparison is really a 349 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 3: good one. I get the point about guys waiting, but 350 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 3: is Jordan Love good like? I don't know when we're 351 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 3: gonna find out. I have a feeling that the Packers 352 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 3: will not be as good as the Jets, so that probably. 353 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 3: I mean what I'm saying is I think Aaron Rodgers 354 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 3: Jill has something left and they're moving on, and I 355 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,120 Speaker 3: get you have to move on, but I don't know 356 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 3: if this is If this is a good that's a 357 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 3: good comparison. Yes, players take time to learn and get better. 358 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,239 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers is an example, maybe more than just Jordan Love, 359 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers, Tony Romo. I mean, guys sit and they 360 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 3: they can benefit from that. But most of the time, 361 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 3: when you're drafted that high, you've got to come in 362 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 3: and play right now. And that's always the case. I mean, 363 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 3: look at the NBA, NBA. This happens to NBA all 364 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 3: the time. Guy drafted top ten, he's supposed to be 365 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 3: a good player, he's thrown in there, he's not ready, 366 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 3: he ends up being a bust. He goes to another team. 367 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 3: He's there, sixth man off the bench, and he's a 368 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 3: really really good player and he plays ten twelve years. 369 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 3: But that doesn't work if you draft him in the 370 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 3: top ten. It's the same with guards Leonard Davis, Robert Gallery. 371 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 3: They were drafted so high they have to play left tackle, 372 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 3: because that's what you do when you draft someone that high. 373 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 3: They weren't good at left tackle, they got moved to guard, 374 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 3: played with a different team, and they were in a 375 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 3: better spot. So sometimes the next spot is better. Yeah, 376 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 3: you waste in draft capital, you know sometimes, but these 377 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 3: players need a different environment. And maybe that'll be the 378 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 3: case for Trey Lance. All Right, Dallas is the name 379 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 3: of this one from Yuma, Arizona. He said after Hunter 380 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 3: Lipke's performance Saturday night. Do you think he should have 381 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 3: been playing more in the first two preseason games. Do 382 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 3: you think he has a good spot on this team? 383 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 3: I would think he's probably on the practice squad. Still. 384 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 3: He did some good things with me that they're trying 385 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 3: to figure out the running back position. They're trying to 386 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 3: give touches for Deuce, They're giving touches for Malik Davis. 387 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 3: They're seeing what Rico Dadell can do. Rico Daddle's showed 388 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 3: you what he can do, and now he's on the team. 389 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 3: So I mean, where are all these where are all these 390 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 3: carries you know coming from? I mean, I think I 391 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 3: think they gave him a good opportunity there. I if 392 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 3: they're going to keep Hunter lip g I don't see 393 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 3: them keeping four tight ends, So something's got to give there. 394 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 3: He does have linebacker build and that, and they're short 395 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 3: on linebackers, so he could help you in the pre 396 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 3: in the special teams. But I don't really foresee I 397 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 3: don't I don't know if he makes it really, I 398 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 3: think he's a practice squad guy again, and I've said this, 399 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 3: I think on the mail bag this morning. The roster 400 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 3: cut is not like it used to be. Used to 401 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 3: just be this really big deal. You cut down to 402 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 3: fifty three and then you add seven guys on your 403 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 3: practice squad whatever. But now you're adding sixteen guys to 404 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 3: your practice squad, and more than anything, you can move 405 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 3: them up on game day, so they're all still part 406 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 3: of the family and you've got you know, almost seventy 407 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 3: guys to work with. You could cut a player right now, 408 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 3: he's on your practice squad. He could play in the 409 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 3: Giants game. So it's not as it's not as dramatic 410 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 3: as it used to be the cutdown day. So that's that, 411 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 3: and that's good. That's a good thing. I mean, I 412 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 3: like the rule. I mean, there's nothing wrong with it. 413 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,439 Speaker 3: I just I just think it's probably one that it was. 414 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 3: It was more it was much a big deal. It 415 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,160 Speaker 3: was a big deal way back in the day than 416 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 3: it is right now. So all right, Marvin from Maryland says, 417 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 3: t Billy Johnson, that's number eighty receiver, has some veteran experience. 418 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 3: He's caught more than two balls in his NFL career. 419 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 3: How would he fit as a fifth or sixth receiver. 420 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 3: Don't think he does. Don't think he fits in here 421 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 3: for this team at that position. Showed some speed, did 422 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 3: some nice things in practice. He had a couple of 423 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 3: really good practices toward the end of Oxnard. It was 424 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 3: kind of catching people's eye a little bit, but not really. 425 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 3: Don't really think that that he'll be one of the 426 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 3: guys that they keep. I think they keep five receivers 427 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 3: for sure. Jalen Brooks, I don't know. I think you 428 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 3: could probably get them on the practice squad, Simmi Fojoko. 429 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 3: I just don't. I just don't see them keeping six receivers. 430 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 3: If there were six that you just had to have 431 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 3: on your team, they would. But I think it stops 432 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,479 Speaker 3: at five, and that includes Turpin and then and then 433 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 3: you can add them on game day if you need to. 434 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 3: You're gonna have two or three on the practice squad. 435 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 3: Maybe maybe two, Jackie, I'm sorry, Gary, Jackie Flash. So 436 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 3: what's the deal with Jabril Cox? I had high hopes 437 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 3: for him. Isn't isn't TJ Bass on the O line 438 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 3: A stud I see him advancing fast Tolbert will take 439 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 3: over number three wide receiver. Okay, just throwing that in 440 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 3: there at the end, Tolbert will take over number three receiver. 441 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 2: Win. 442 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, probably at some point in his career here in Dallas, 443 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 3: he'll be the number three. I could definitely see that, 444 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 3: and that could be next year. I don't see it 445 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 3: happening this year without an injury, and I don't know 446 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 3: if he's ready for that. I really don't. Expectations are, Wow, 447 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 3: can this guy make a handful of catches? Can he 448 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 3: line up correctly? I mean that was the expectations for Tolbert. 449 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 3: The bar was low after last year, and he had 450 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 3: a really good camp because the bar was low. But 451 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 3: is he ready to be one of your top three guys. 452 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 3: I don't think people would be as excited about Jalen 453 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 3: Tolbert if he was one of those guys right now. 454 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 3: I think they like him for a wide receiver, for 455 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 3: in a special team's role. What's the deal with your 456 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 3: Bill Cox? He just he just didn't He didn't make 457 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 3: a lot of plays. He hasn't done a whole lot, 458 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 3: hasn't done anything to really stand out. That's that's what 459 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,360 Speaker 3: happens at linebacker. You got it. You got to figure 460 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 3: out how to stand out and TJ. Bass, Yes, he's 461 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 3: been good as a as a left guard or as 462 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 3: a guard. He's played left guard, played some right guard, 463 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 3: and you could see this one coming, you really could. 464 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 3: I mean, if you're a three time All All Pac 465 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 3: twelve first team, I mean, that's that just shows that 466 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 3: you're you're a good player. You've played in different positions, 467 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 3: you came in, you know, into college quickly and made plays. 468 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 3: So yeah, I think I think he's it's a good 469 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 3: backup to have, uh for sure. All right, let's see, 470 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 3: all right, this is now now, this is Kevin from Virginia. 471 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:15,959 Speaker 3: Should have called so we could just chat about this 472 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 3: back and forth. But he's already responded about Aaron Rodgers. 473 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 3: He's My point is that Aaron responded by winning back 474 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 3: to back m vps. I'm looking at his motivational tool 475 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 3: for dak Without the attitude that Aaron gave to Love, great, 476 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 3: that would be that would be awesome. I mean, if 477 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 3: he could, if he could do that, I mean, I 478 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 3: understand the point. There's just there's a lot to that 479 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 3: that's still hard to dissect right now, because Jordan Love, 480 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 3: we're not sure is a good quarterback at all. You know, 481 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 3: it's kind of similar to to Trey Lanton that played 482 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 3: at a small school. He's got some athletic ability, got 483 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 3: a live arm and all that, but he's got to 484 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 3: put kind of the tools together. H Yeah, Aaron did 485 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 3: respond with two m vps, but definitely a different situation 486 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 3: over there in Dallas and I mean, sorry in Green Bay. Well, 487 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 3: we'll see, we'll see what happens. I think, you know, 488 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,400 Speaker 3: I think Dak's gonna gonna be fine. I don't think 489 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 3: this is this is a big deal. I think it's 490 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:12,959 Speaker 3: a smart move by the Cowboys to go ahead and 491 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 3: do this. Are they done with trades? Probably not. I 492 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 3: mean they probably got more to do here. I mean, 493 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,959 Speaker 3: for me, I still think you've got to figure out 494 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,360 Speaker 3: something on the offensive line. I don't know if I'm 495 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 3: be ready for Awesome Richards to be the swing tackle 496 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 3: and I don't know if we'll let's go as that 497 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 3: guy either me personally, I'm getting a guard tackle veteran. 498 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna find one. They're out there. You have 499 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 3: to trade for one, you have to trade for one. 500 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 3: But but you give me somebody that's played in the game. 501 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 3: In the games at tackle at guard. You know, Chumydoga 502 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 3: could be that guy, but he's he's banged up right 503 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 3: now and don't know if he's gonna be ready to 504 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 3: go and then and then other you know, other spots. Uh, 505 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 3: let's look at cornerback to Jordan Lewis, that's gonna be 506 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 3: an interesting move tomorrow. See if the Cowboys move him 507 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 3: to the pup list to reserve pup, which means he'd 508 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 3: be out four weeks, or do they just put him 509 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 3: on the fifty three man roster. Probably not ready for 510 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 3: week one, but could be ready if they leave him 511 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 3: on the roster. It'd be very similar to Michael Gallup 512 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 3: last year, where you know he was able to play 513 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 3: before that four week window. So I think that that'll 514 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 3: probably happen for him. I think. I think in talking 515 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 3: to him after the game in the locker room, Jordan 516 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 3: Lewis sounded like he would probably be a guy that 517 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 3: would be ready to go week one. I'm sorry, week one, 518 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 3: but week two, week three, but definitely not on the pub. 519 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 3: All right, let's get another one here. 520 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: This is. 521 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 3: Let me try to get one more before we end 522 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 3: the show. How about Ryan from North Carolina? Says, why 523 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 3: do I never hear NFL teams signing players from the CFL. Well, 524 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 3: and he also talks about the CFL talent is higher 525 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 3: than the USFL players that are being signed by NFL teams. 526 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 3: There's a lot more leagues now, I mean the CFL. 527 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 3: It happens, but from my understanding, they play, they play 528 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 3: at a different time where you're not gonna get a 529 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 3: lot of players ready to go, ready to play in 530 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 3: the NFL right then, and and then the talent pool 531 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 3: has been watered down just by other leagues. I mean, 532 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 3: you got the XFL, I got the USFL, and you 533 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 3: got you also have the CFL. So and not to 534 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 3: mention that, but there's there's more spots on the practice 535 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 3: squad now there's I mean there's there's It's a lot 536 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 3: better to stay in the NFL as a practice squad 537 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 3: player than to go and to go on another league. 538 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 3: And yeah, it would be nice if if they kept 539 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 3: your rights, you could go play. That's why I do 540 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 3: think there needs to be some kind of G league 541 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 3: or something. I think the I think the Cowboys need, 542 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 3: I mean, the NFL needs to figure out how to 543 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 3: capitalize on these leagues and maybe you figure, you know, 544 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 3: like they used to do with NFL Europe, and you 545 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 3: can kind of keep tabs on them. They need reps 546 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 3: in games, they can go play games, but at the 547 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 3: same time you have the rights, I think, and I 548 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 3: think that would drive up ratings even more knowing that 549 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,959 Speaker 3: you're watching these games and they have some kind of 550 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 3: connection to your to your NFL team. So that would 551 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,119 Speaker 3: be my thought. I'm sure it's easier said than done, 552 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 3: but it would it would be nice to see that. 553 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 3: I just think that the the addition of the extra 554 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 3: practice squad spots have been the reason for for that, 555 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,360 Speaker 3: and and how these leagues just don't have a ton 556 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 3: of talent. They have some we've seen it. Cavante Turpin, 557 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 3: you know, he's a he's a Pro Bowl, All Pro 558 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 3: type returner. It was the MVP of their league. Brandon 559 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,199 Speaker 3: Aubrey was really good in the USFL. He was you know, 560 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 3: he made the first team All USFL so as a kicker, 561 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 3: and the Cowboys are hoping that they'll steal another one 562 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,479 Speaker 3: to help the special teams. All right, that'll do it 563 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 3: for for this edition of Cowboys Storyline. We'll be back 564 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 3: on Wednesday, and we'll be answering your questions there. The 565 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 3: roster will be cut down to fifty three, so we'll 566 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 3: be talking about that as we're getting closer and closer 567 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 3: to the regular season. Until then, I'm Nick keeping thanks 568 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 3: to Chris Bean.
