19
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: N Then I hear wait, he's changed his mind. He's

20
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 1: going to Denver, pulled the rug right out from the bottom,

21
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: and I said, yes, yes, Hey, Look what made you

22
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: say yes though, because the same reason why I said,

23
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: that's a lot of money. Seventy millions, a lot of

24
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 1: money for a guy who's not dependable. But what was

25
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: a guarantee? What it was like? Only like what twenty

26
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: seven weeks? I don't care what twenty sevendude, there's a

27
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: lot of money either way. It was a lot of

28
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: twenty million guarantee forty two so they could have got

29
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 1: out of it, you know after two years. Look, this

30
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: is just my thing. Okay. I thought he was a

31
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: good player, but he was an undependable player. I'll get

32
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: you that. Okay. Last year played eleven games, that's a

33
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: career high. Yeah he had six acts. That was nice,

34
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: six acts, But again San Francisco. Yeah, have sat had

35
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: a bad penalty as well. Okay, you know I just

36
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: looked at his you know, you start looking at the

37
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 1: numbers here and you go through the games. He's a

38
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: good football player, good football player. Wasn't a great player.

39
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it was a great I say he

40
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: was good. So my boyfriend Denver Costers. Hey, man, we'll

41
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: keep telling me Randy Gregor. I said, good guy, you're

42
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: gonna like talking to Randy. He's an amazing he's in

43
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 1: human being. I said, you're gonna like brand He's a

44
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: good dude. Over Except from a football standpoint, you got

45
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: six sacks on a defense where you have Michael Parsons.

46
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: He did too at thirteen. Hey, did you got to

47
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: play with seven games with Tank Lawrence? You had trevilon

48
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: Digs out there. If you're a coordinator, he's not the

49
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: first guy you're thinking about, or a seven guy or

50
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: a third guy. Number four seventy million dollars for the

51
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: number four dude, I don't know if he was number

52
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: you think he was number four on our defense. As

53
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: far as rushing a passer, I'm talking about in terms

54
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: of a blue children blue your blue chip players. Last year,

55
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: it was Parsons digs, then you got Tank Lawrence, and

56
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:06,679
Speaker 1: then you got him. If you're talking about your blue

57
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: chip players, now, you could argue Randy had better impacted

58
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: more than than Tank Lawds. But I mean right now,

59
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: if you're starting tomorrow, you gotta go out here and

60
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: get your football team going. You'd have more faith to

61
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: Tank Lawrence than Randy Gregory. I don't know. I don't

62
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: know about because look at the injury history would Tank

63
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: as well. Okay, all right, both of them, both of

64
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: them have games. Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, both of them

65
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: got the Okay, but if I got to choose one

66
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: or the other, I'm good I would. I don't know.

67
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: I got to look at the and the way the

68
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: contracts because you didn't push this money out, so you've

69
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: kind of put yourself in that box situation. So you

70
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: kind of had to do a redo. They all had

71
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: to get together. He had to get together with them

72
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 1: because he needed to take some type of production. At

73
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: the same time, they just couldn't cut the guy because else,

74
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: I mean, there was a need there. That's why they

75
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: were able to get a deal done. So to me,

76
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: to me, you know, I'm with you on the fact

77
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: that you know, seventy me that's a lot of bread.

78
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: That's a lot of bread to give a pass rusher

79
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: who I'll say he was inconsistent. I'll say that, you know,

80
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: when when he's on fire, when he's rushing the passer

81
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: and he's on his a game. I believe he's one

82
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: of the best pass rushers in the national football He

83
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: just has that natural bend ability, speed off the edge.

84
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: He can get low under tackles. He has that ability,

85
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 1: but it's kind of a flash in the pan, like

86
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: it happens, you know, when he's at his high's at

87
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: his high, but when he's at his low. I mean,

88
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: he can disappear from games. And we've seen that in

89
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 1: that San Francisco game. But to me, you know, I

90
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 1: would have liked them to keep Brandy Gregory here. You know,

91
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: I felt like it gave us another dynamic guy off

92
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: the edge. You can never have enough defensive lineman. We

93
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 1: know in this league it's it's a D line quarterback league.

94
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: You gotta have people that could get after the passer.

95
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: And right now we have a tank Lawrence who he

96
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: resigned his new deal, got that you know, thirty million

97
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: dollars and all that stuff. But can we depend for

98
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: him to play aff seventeen games. I'm not sure. I'm

99
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: not sure we got a good pass rusher in Parsons

100
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: as well. But is he gonna play d N or

101
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: is he or are you gonna play you know, the

102
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: linebacker position. So I believe you can never I have

103
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: enough passwasher. So losing him I thought was a slight

104
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: just just it just didn't I would have rather had

105
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: him stayed with the Dallas Cowboys. But to me, I

106
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: want to get your thoughts on what was the underlying

107
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: contract that was just the language that was in here

108
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: that made him flip just like that. I mean because

109
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: to me, like I mean, the Joneses, they did a

110
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 1: lot for Gregory. They did a lot for Gregory m

111
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: in his situation, he might not even beat in the league,

112
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: you know, if it wasn't for Jones keeping him around.

113
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 1: Now we know they weren't just doing that out of

114
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: the accountess of their art. I mean, the guy was

115
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 1: a good passwasher, so they're gonna keep it around as

116
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: long as they can. But to me, I just want

117
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: to know what was the language that he just felt like,

118
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 1: you know what, this is shady right here. I gotta

119
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: get the heck up out of here. The language was

120
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: in his other contracts and the languages in other contracts,

121
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 1: I'm like, what was the issues when he yea from

122
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 1: by all accounts, just talking to this is when I

123
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: really go to the beat writers and the folks who

124
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: really dive into this stuff every day and the consensus.

125
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 1: Talking to the people who covered the Dallas Cowboys, it's

126
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: the agent who's based in denn wanted there and basically

127
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: gotten this year and just said, hey, look, you know

128
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: what this language here, it's gonna hurt you. Dot Denver

129
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: is gonna take it out, so go over here. And

130
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: Jerry gets on the phone and tries to convince him,

131
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: and they decide that, you know, we're offended, and so okay. Personally,

132
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys are going to be happy that

133
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,239
Speaker 1: they did not give him five years and seventy million

134
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: dollars because I mean, we're gonna talk about a little

135
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: bit later, but you were able to bring back four

136
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: guys rather than one guy on that seventy million dollars deal,

137
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: so it might work out in the long haul. But

138
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: when we talk about that language, and like you said,

139
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: I just to me, there's no state taxes here. You

140
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: know this organization, you know the training is that, you

141
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: know this team, you've been here for what six seven years,

142
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: it's the same. I can see if Denver was like, hey,

143
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: we'll sweeting a deal to extra ten mills, extra five meal,

144
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: but it's the same money. This is where and you

145
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: you being a former player. You swear the agent played

146
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: very big role in this all in his ye so

147
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: so fine, Let let the Asian deal with it. But

148
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: I would be shocked at the end of five years

149
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,600
Speaker 1: if Randy Gregory used to playing for the dim Bronco. No,

150
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: I don't it now. I look at Randy's situation very

151
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: much the way I looked at Byron Jones situation. There

152
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,679
Speaker 1: are a lot of people who wanted to keep Byron

153
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: Jones at a cowboy fan, we dinna keep bying jet By.

154
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: And I was always of the opinion Byron is a

155
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: great guy. He's a good player, but he's about to

156
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: get a great contract. You got it out standing one,

157
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: and I wouldn't do it. And the contract was so

158
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: great it was the largest contract ever given to a

159
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: quarterback in National Football League history. Go read Twitter. Now

160
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: they're trying to get rid of by It and trying

161
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: to dump this guy. How do we get out of

162
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: this deal? And it just went back to I think,

163
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: you know you he only had two picks. He wasn't

164
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: He went four year to Miami. And so you had

165
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: all these these analytic people with people who read the

166
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: pro football folk that shutting guys down they don't throw

167
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: to his side. I'm like, cause take the one to

168
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: the other side. And so you get this. But people,

169
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: once again, they want them to take everything that Pro

170
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: Football Focus says is the gospel. And I like what

171
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: they do. But when you talk to people like you

172
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: who played the game, you talked to coaches in front office,

173
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: but hey, look they don't always they don't understand what

174
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: we're asking guys to do exactly. That's why I don't

175
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: get what the Pro Football like. It's not like they

176
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,119
Speaker 1: know the exact scheme and the play that these guys

177
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: are calling. They just get a general Okay, they might

178
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 1: be in covered three right here, they might be a

179
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: man to man right here. They don't know the specifics,

180
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: but they treat everybody. Treats it like Bible. He was

181
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 1: an eighty five grade on PFF. That means he's better

182
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: than this guy. I can't stand it. Newly it was.

183
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: I heard a really great interview one time from It

184
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: was a defensive lineman coming out of the draft and

185
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: his team played Army and a quote unquote knock against

186
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: him was he didn't show up in the Army game.

187
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: And I want to say it was Pat Kirwin and

188
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: Jim Miller, who did the fantastic interf. You're talking to

189
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: him and they said, tell us what your responsibilities were

190
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: in this game because Army Option team, And he said,

191
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: I had to just basically play this particular gap right here.

192
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: So he didn't get to play his normal game because

193
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: that's where a lot of folks against that triple option.

194
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: They don't see it much and if you're not playing

195
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: the right right and so he didn't have a quote

196
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,719
Speaker 1: unquote great game or statistical game like he normally had.

197
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 1: But the coaches for this specific game plan were asking

198
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: him to do what he normally would do. They were

199
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: trying to win the game, they were trying to pad

200
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: his statistics. And so that was kind of one of

201
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 1: my introductions into listening and understanding of talking about, Okay,

202
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: what were you asking your player to do? And that

203
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: doesn't always translate into these these grades that that PFF

204
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: is giving that you're trying you're giving general grades to

205
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: thirty two teams and it's just not you know, everybody's

206
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 1: not playing the same scheme there. So anyway, going back

207
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 1: to Randy just and Byron Jones, look, Byron Jones moved

208
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,359
Speaker 1: on from him. My thing was, you know what, Okay,

209
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: you have a scouting department, you have Will McClay, go

210
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: find somebody. And they did. They found they found Diggs

211
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: in the set. You found a guy that we both

212
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: talked about it should have taken it. The we talk

213
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,599
Speaker 1: first round. We were like, man, it takes got the

214
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: first round. You can get him a second round. So

215
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: you can see Lamb in the first round. You get

216
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 1: Diggs in the second round. Okay, both guys under rookie

217
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: contracts right now, both guys pro Bowl players, ye all

218
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: pro and disks. Can you not go back and go

219
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: find somebody else to take Randy gregoryspont And I believe

220
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: you can find someone, okay, because I don't think he

221
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: that's your job. He's a dynamic pass rusher. But there's

222
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: more to the game than just rushing the passer, I mean,

223
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: And that's what I think makes d Law a good

224
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: defensive end because you know, he may not be able

225
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: to get to the quarterback as well as he once

226
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: did back in those franchise tag years. He was you

227
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: know what, he had like twenty or thirty sacks and

228
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 1: two years or something like that, but he plays the

229
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: run better than pretty much any defensive end I know,

230
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: International Football League right now, and that goes a lot,

231
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: especially when you're going when you're with a team that

232
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: could gash against the run like we had, you know,

233
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 1: in years past. So to me, rushing the pastor is amazing.

234
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: And Randy Gregory he has kind of that art form.

235
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: He kind of has that technique to where he can

236
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: get after any any tackle out there, any quarterback out there.

237
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: But when it comes down to it, I just think

238
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 1: that was his kind of one trick pony. I don't

239
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 1: really see him being a every down. I'm getting TFLs

240
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,319
Speaker 1: in the run. I'm you know, were ketting after the

241
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: quarterback because we've seen games where he disappears. So look,

242
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: I understand, go get your money, big dog. You know.

243
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: I hope, I hope it all one that works out

244
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: well for you. But at the end of the day, man,

245
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 1: it's a tough decision. But I might have decide with

246
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: you on this one. Man. I'm okay with it. Man,

247
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: he saved some brand for the team. You're able to

248
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: bring back more players to a defense and you give

249
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: it another run at it, go draft someone, I mean people,

250
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: And it's funny exactly well, what are you gonna find

251
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: twenty four? Um. I don't know if you guys remember

252
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 1: or not, but the Cowboys were in a perfect position.

253
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: When they needed a defensive end or if he needed

254
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: a pass rusher, there was t J. Watt Rod Baronelli

255
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 1: said he that the scheme doesn't fit him, and so

256
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,079
Speaker 1: they took Taco Charles Taco Tuesday and even Dan Quinn

257
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: was in Atlanta at the time. They traded it up

258
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: jump the Cowboys. They went and took Tack mckinling. So

259
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 1: we so many times think unless you're drafting in the

260
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: top ten, that you don't have an ability to go

261
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,719
Speaker 1: get a football player who can help you out. You

262
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: can get football player, you can you can go get

263
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: football play. Once again, this is why you have a

264
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 1: scouting department. This is why you have guys here. And

265
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 1: I don't know why certain Cowboy fans don't want to

266
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 1: give this scouting department enough credit, but you start looking

267
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 1: at not just the Pro Bowl players they have, but

268
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: the homegrown Pro Bowl player. Look at them, maybe, I

269
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: mean they don the heck of a good job. Look

270
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: at I mean, look at curse. Out of nowhere, the

271
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 1: scout department finds him out of nowhere, gets into what

272
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 1: this scheme and look at me, he's bawling right now.

273
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: Ball last year, So okay, so fine, people, so go

274
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: back and do it again Will Will has a good record.

275
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 1: Ain't like he's just you know, he's he's hit one

276
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: and maybe here and there, and he's been hitting his

277
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 1: past couple of years. They drafted Robert Cool I mean

278
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: I drafted, but they traded for Robert Quinn, who was

279
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 1: in a situation. Quin had a heck of a year,

280
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: went on to Chicago. Um, they got Everson Griffin. Um

281
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: didn't work out. But then again, I always and I

282
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: go back and I say to people, nothing worked out

283
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: for that defense. That yeah, that year was that was nothing.

284
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: I mean it was yeah, it was. It was a

285
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: rough year. But but but the thought process and trying to

286
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: get a player like that that you thought the Cowboys

287
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: had had made a good deal just didn't work out.

288
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: Because nothing worked out. It was a historically bad defense

289
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 1: for the franchise. But you can you can go find

290
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: people you can and to make it seem as though

291
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 1: you you lost to Marcus Ware. You know, he's Randy Gregory.

292
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: He's not d Ware. It's not Randy White, it's not

293
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame. Then I missed the Pro Bowls

294
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: he made. No, I'm not gonna lie to you. That's

295
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: how I feel about Shoults as well, though, like you know,

296
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: just I feel like you could get a Shoults in

297
00:13:54,360 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: the draft. Now. Now here is the thought process. While

298
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: I'll say, Okay, you gave Schultz eleven million dollars, you

299
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: know they care about offense here. Oh yeah, you know

300
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 1: they did. That's then that's the bread and butter. They

301
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:18,079
Speaker 1: already knew we're losing Cooper m So if we're losing Cooper,

302
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: do we also want to lose and we're cutting Jarwin?

303
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: Do we want to lose this tight end? That's what

304
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: I think you can find one. I didn't think they

305
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: wanted Dak to have that much change. You didn't think

306
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: they don't think he can overcome that. Okay, So so

307
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 1: Cooper's gone, Cooper gone, gall It's not gonna be available

308
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: for a minute, said Wilson gone, said Wilson's gone, Schultz

309
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: gone to I think they decided, you know, at some

310
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: point in time, we got we got we gotta, we gotta,

311
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: we gotta put put a hole in one of the dikes.

312
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: We gotta plug it. So you bring back Lamb, you

313
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: bring back Schultz. There's at least two people he has

314
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: chemistry with, but it's so dynamic though. That's that's the

315
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: only thing I can see. If he was a guy

316
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: that you can go split out and he can he

317
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: could create for self, But I don't see him as

318
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: being that type of tighty. He's a good tight end,

319
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: solid tight end, don't get me wrong, but I just

320
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: don't see him being able to create for himself. He's

321
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: not Kelsey. No, he's not Kelsey. No, he's he's and

322
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: and I catched unto this, all right. If you didn't

323
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: get him, who are you going to go get in

324
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: the draft? You don't tight end, just tight end wise,

325
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 1: like you said, we can find them and and for me,

326
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: I go back. They love offense. They were trying to

327
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: make sure that they protected the forty million dollars quarterback

328
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: and gave him some weapons and things comfort some So

329
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: that was how I looked at that one. So take,

330
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: for instance, you kept Tank, Okay, you didn't want both

331
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 1: guys going, so you keep one of them. If Lamb

332
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: is now gone, Gallup's not healthy. Cedric Wilson is now going,

333
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: did you also want to lose the tight end? I

334
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: don't think that's what they wanted to do, Like I

335
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: see that. That was my that's my theory. And then

336
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: just also, okay, if you know what, if you bring

337
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: someone in who doesn't have the chem because you know

338
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 1: that chemistry thing, and they care about offense here, man

339
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 1: care about offen offensive head coach, and you got an

340
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: owner who loves the offense, they're gonna take your head

341
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 1: offensive side. He's seeing that. That's where all the duckets go.

342
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: They go to the offenses. Out of there. You you've

343
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 1: been here, you played here, you sparking the barking hunt

344
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: on the dollar general shopping for defense. Yes, they ain't

345
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: going to five and below to get defensive plays. They're

346
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: going to Nema Marcus for the offensive play. You just

347
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: know's what they do. Man, the luxury brand on the offense,

348
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: and you got the you know down here, you know

349
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 1: how the grocery stores got their their brand, and you

350
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 1: got the other ket logs and in the grocery store

351
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: brand right there, multiple meal, the multiple meal, it looks

352
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: like it's Captain Chris. It looks like frosted flakes. It

353
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: just says the multiple meal, Oh man, you got too,

354
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 1: can Sam, and then you get the cardinal great value

355
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: when you go to Walmart, it's a great bat. That's

356
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 1: their brand is great value, great value. Exactly got that

357
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: great value all but milk for the deepenesse. It works

358
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 1: like this past year it worked. But is it is

359
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 1: it sustainable? You know? Is it just a I don't

360
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 1: know now? I don't know. And so I read Bill

361
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 1: Polian's book a couple of years ago Barry, and it

362
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: was it was well done for the standpoint that he said,

363
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: in today's NFL, with a salary cap, you're forced to

364
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: choose are you gonna be offensive or defensive football team?

365
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: Because where you put your money at. So when he

366
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 1: was with the coach, we were an offensive team. It's

367
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,640
Speaker 1: where we put our money at. And one reason why

368
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: he hired Tony Dungee is because Tony new defense and

369
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 1: Tony's scheme playing that Tampa two, especially with the corners,

370
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,400
Speaker 1: is that they could draft corners and by the time

371
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 1: they had to pay them, they could move on from it.

372
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: And they didn't play and they played three to four

373
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: because you need man corners. And He's like the man

374
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: corners cost a lot of money, okay, and it's not

375
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,719
Speaker 1: like you can do well you hit the road. So

376
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: so that's what he wanted to do and construct that

377
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: type of defense. And so, hey, we got Freeny, we

378
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 1: got Mathis, and' like, we'll pay these two dudes, but

379
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: we're not paying anybody else because we're putting all these

380
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,479
Speaker 1: resources over here towards towards our our offense and drafted

381
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 1: towards the offense. So in many ways, the Cowboys have

382
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 1: decided that they wanted to be an offensive team. Yeah,

383
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 1: and so that's where the dollars are. That's what they're

384
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 1: going I mean, look, you got the coordinator over there still,

385
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:20,360
Speaker 1: I mean, and so so if you're going to do that,

386
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: then you have to be very smart with your drafting

387
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: and very smart with who you bring into your football team.

388
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,479
Speaker 1: And they have been so far. And the Colts won

389
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: Napoleon did that a lot. And so that's what Jerry's

390
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: and Steven and Will McClay and Dan quinn and Mike McCary,

391
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: that's what they're gonna have to do here. Let's go

392
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 1: out and figure how do you make smart moves? Dalton Schultz,

393
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: they care about the tight end here. They care about

394
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: the offense. They wanted to make sure we kept another people,

395
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: which I believe is the correct thing to do. You

396
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 1: want to keep them on them. I mean so, okay,

397
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 1: so if you so, if you don't have in this,

398
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,479
Speaker 1: that's the position they put themselves in. You paid Jarwin,

399
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 1: you didn't pay shots. So there you go. But did

400
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 1: you want to go into a season where Cede Land

401
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 1: was the only player the dak Prescott had in he came.

402
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: I thought he was supposed to be that Guido the

403
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: New eighty eight. But just why right? But just one

404
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: guy versus at least having two gaps. I see where

405
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: you're coming from. That's just and that, that to me

406
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: is what just knowing how they feel about often, we're

407
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: gonna see, We're gonna see what can happen. Um. Yeah, hey,

408
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: look let's get our first break in here. Lell Collins

409
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 1: is gone, Tocinnati. The offensive line I believe has some issues.

410
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: There's a shambles, there's there's some there's some conversations to

411
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: be had there where they go next, Let's do it

Speaker 1: cowboard player and this is the players, not just brought

458
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: to you by hotels dot com so um. According to ESPN, LEL.

459
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,200
Speaker 1: Collins deal with the Cincinnati Bengals is a three year

460
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 1: deal worth thirty million UM, but due to the structure,

461
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 1: is a two year deal worre twenty two million dollars.

462
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: The Cowboys are supposed to pay him ten million dollars.

463
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: And there's some people who were just said, hey, you know,

464
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: why don't you make a trade, Why don't you trade Collins? Well,

465
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,719
Speaker 1: they weren't getting what they were looking for and they

466
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: didn't want to take a low round pick. By cutting Collins,

467
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: they're going to be able to get more of savings

468
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 1: for themselves. So you said they still owe him, Tamelia, No, no, no,

469
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: this is what he was going to get just being

470
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 1: able to on the cap how you split it up. Basically,

471
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 1: it was to their benefit. They were going to get

472
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: better benefit by it by letting it then then just

473
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,439
Speaker 1: trading it for some six round pick and you were

474
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: getting something value of a second round. Fine. So um,

475
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 1: Big Collins is now going up to Cincinnati. I used

476
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: to living Ohio. It's different. The weather up there is different.

477
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: It ain't Dallas. But I feel for a brother who's

478
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: from college from the boot Man. So he's just he's

479
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: a warm climate dude. He's never lived in anything like this. Man,

480
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: that's outdoors. You know, if I could see LC, I said, hey, man,

481
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: any about to buy some clothes you ain't ever heard of?

482
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: And he's playing outside. They know, they know Doome? You

Speaker 1: outdoors and everything. Everything's outdoors, man, Everything is is outdoors.

487
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 1: By the way, the Bengals played the Cowboys this year too,

488
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: So we'll see, we'll see how that goes there. And

489
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 1: he's lyne about just now. I'm thinking about it. Who

490
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna have to go against. You're talking about who

491
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: Cleveland with Miles Garrett and those boys, Pittsburgh, t J

492
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 1: Watt that you got BOLTI boards always got for Oh man,

00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,880
Speaker 1: Bengals feeling, hey man, we won, we got it done

496
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: that that hey man, good on you. Hopefully, um this

497
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: rejuvenates Collins and he can find find some better play.

498
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 1: But as much as you and I love Lel the person,

499
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: the last two seasons have not been what you thought

500
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: you were getting. Yeah, he missed perform Yeah, basically missed

501
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,479
Speaker 1: all of what two years ago with the hip injuried

502
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,160
Speaker 1: and this year you know, suspended five games, came back.

503
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 1: Really wasn't that player that we had seen in previous years.

504
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 1: So you know, happy, you know, he got got his

505
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: money over in Cincinnati. Hopefully he does well. We've seen

506
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 1: what it did, what she did that you know Wouza.

507
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:39,439
Speaker 1: He went over there and played well, So hopefully it

508
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 1: all works out. But I'm not so sure. You know,

509
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: Cincinnati won, you know something with this, I think they

510
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,639
Speaker 1: just added to the offensive line, and maybe it's an

511
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 1: upgrade over what they had because we've seen how Burrow

512
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: was getting destroyed up to right. I mean no doubt

513
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: this was a win for them because they needed to

514
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: upgrade the offensive line. You're bringing in someone who has

515
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: better in an experience, so he's better than what they had,

516
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 1: So there's a win. How he plays, does he live

517
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: up to that money, can he stay healthy? These these

518
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,119
Speaker 1: these are the things that they've got to go deal with.

519
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 1: But many times Danny McCrae when he was here with

520
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: you know, and you guys were talking is you guys

521
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 1: were both were very much Hey, Terrence Steele shouldn't lose

522
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: the job. I thought he should. You guys, you guys

523
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: were very big on Steal keeping that right tackle job

524
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: because I could see if, like like we said, if

525
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 1: he got hurt or something. And you know, that's how

526
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 1: Steel came in and was able to do his deal.

527
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,640
Speaker 1: But we would have never known about Steal. We would

528
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 1: have never got an opportunity to watch him give grow

529
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: as a player if Lyle didn't put himself in that

530
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: situation and get suspended. And that's what happened. So he

531
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: has nobody else to blame for him getting the spot taken.

532
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 1: You know, eventually he got it back and it's that

533
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: in the third But we talked about it back then.

534
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: Steele was playing well and he deserved that Italy stay

535
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: at where he was. They tried to move him over

536
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: the left tackle too, because Tying went down. We saw

537
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: that wasn't that wasn't gonna work. But overall, I think

538
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 1: Steel should have stayed at that right tack position and

539
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: hopefully going forward he'll be able to cement himself in

540
00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 1: there as a right tackle for this Cowboys team. So um, okay,

541
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 1: I wish him well, but the Cowboys have a cheaper

542
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:09,120
Speaker 1: alternative right tackle and guy they like. And we start

543
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: to look at the rest of the offensive line right now,

544
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: and there's still concerns. There's two we got two pieces,

545
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,160
Speaker 1: but we need but we need three more. Yeah, yeah,

546
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 1: you got your left guard. Spot is open in terms

547
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 1: of Carter Williams leaving, what's their faith level? And Connor McGovern. Yeah,

548
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 1: with all due respect, I haven't heard anyone say, Okay,

549
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 1: hey we got Connor McGovern. He'll be good, he's got

550
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,640
Speaker 1: the spot. Like I haven't heard that. Yea, you haven't

551
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: heard that, which is concerning. It is concerning because normally

552
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: people say, oh, yeah, we got all such, We're good,

553
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: We're good. You're not hearing that. So your left guard

554
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: spot's interesting. Your center Tyler Biad, can he step up?

555
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: Can he you know, don't take that next leap? But

556
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. But he can't put on thirty pl

557
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sorry, he's still two lessons light. He's

558
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: say we need three. And then your left tackle, Tyren Smith,

559
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: all decade player, probably a Hall of Famer. Can he

560
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: stay healthy? Can he give you more than you know,

561
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 1: nine ten games in a year. And so here's a

562
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:10,400
Speaker 1: very interesting situation that I like to see what happens

563
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: is they had Josh Ball last year, who they got

564
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 1: out of Marshall fourth rounder. Right was, so, so what

565
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 1: has Joe Philbin? What are they what have they done?

566
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 1: How can they get this guy potentially ready? See what

567
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 1: makes me nervous about that situation is with all those

568
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,360
Speaker 1: injuries we had last year, you know Tyren Smith going down.

569
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: You didn't hear nothing about Josh Ball coming to hurt.

570
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: He was hurt. He was hurt. Okay, Okay, So he's

571
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: been he's been a lot of the season just hurt,

572
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,120
Speaker 1: so he can step it up there. So that's where

573
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: you just okay, and I kind of go back into

574
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: a Terrence Seal like situation. They did it. You know,

575
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 1: we don't talk about this enough. They did a good

576
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,640
Speaker 1: job developing him. Yeah, because that first year he struggled,

577
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 1: but he came back and you know, he looked like

578
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 1: a totally different player this year. And and I keep

579
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,120
Speaker 1: going back into it was a pandemic and he came

580
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,199
Speaker 1: out of Texas Tech passing offense, so there was there

581
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: was a learning curve, and it was a it was

582
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: a want get the ball out of quickly. So you know,

583
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 1: passmatchers weren't able to get their whole arsenal on you

584
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 1: because they had to get to the ball so quick.

585
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 1: So but now when you're sitting here in this type

586
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,920
Speaker 1: of offense that you know, he's got his five step drops,

587
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:13,399
Speaker 1: he likes to sit in a pocket for a little bit,

588
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: let those routes develop out there. So yeah, and he

589
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: had to get stronger is another thing he spoke about.

590
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 1: It's getting stronger, getting in the weight room. So that's

591
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,640
Speaker 1: where I look at Josh Baul. Can they do this again?

592
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 1: And can they do it? Again to the point in

593
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 1: time where you've now developed another backup player who can

594
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: help you. So that's one thing to look at there.

595
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 1: But obviously there is the draft. And with the draft,

596
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 1: would you take let's just say, would you take let's

597
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: just say a tackle or guard, maybe the third or

598
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 1: fourth best tackler guard at twenty four? Or would you

599
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 1: like to take the best center available at twenty four?

600
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: Lets just say it, because you know, centers outside of

601
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: Frederick really don't go crazy high in the draft. Yeah,

602
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: there's I think the kids from well, well yeah, he's

603
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a top pick. So other than him,

604
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 1: I that's the thing. I don't know. Can you find

605
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: a center later on? You know, yes, yes you can.

606
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 1: But I would say this right now at twenty four,

607
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: just just see how this thing shakes out. Best available see,

608
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: not that it's going to happen, but to watch what's

609
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: happened the last two seasons in terms of a snee

610
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 1: lamb at the Michael Parsons falling to you and you're

611
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: just sitting here just you know, doing You're just doing

612
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 1: your job, and just okay, what what could happen for

613
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: you at twenty four? Depending on how this thing goes. Now,

614
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 1: obviously it's not going to be We don't anticipate it

615
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: to be a high quarterback market. There's gonna be a

616
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 1: lot of folks, you know, making trades and trying to

617
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: move up. But I go back into the way the

618
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steels are drafted for a long time. Man, they've

619
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 1: just kind of sat there and watched the board fall tour. Okay,

620
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: we need to here's t J watch you go, you there,

621
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 1: you go. They needed Cameron Hayward. I mean it's Cam Hayward.

622
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: Wom here's Cam Hayward. Here, here's David de Castro. I

623
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: mean they just kind of s where they've been at

624
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: and just okay, we're gonna scout and and okay, we're

625
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 1: gonna find a good player. The other thing that happens

626
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 1: in drafts, there's thirty two picks, but there's not thirty

627
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: two first round rounds. And sometimes you're gonna find a

628
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 1: first round player dropped to twenty four. And sometimes you

629
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: see first round player, first round guys fall into round two.

630
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: I mean, there's no way in the world Trevn dig

631
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: should be sitting up there in the second round if

632
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 1: they would have seen what they people are be like, not,

633
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 1: ain't no way he would have the top ten, right right?

634
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's it's it's it's crazy. So

635
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,239
Speaker 1: at twenty four I would just simply say, man, at

636
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 1: this point in time, just let's just see how it

637
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: shakes out. Let's see how the chips fall, because once

638
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 1: free agency goes its way, they're gonna be teams. That's okay. Well,

639
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: now we don't need this need here, we don't need that.

640
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: So I just think that the Cowboys have done a

641
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: really good job of just seeing it. Where does the

642
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 1: draft go for Zack Martin? Yeah? Where where does it

643
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: go for us? And Travis Frederick? He twenty something pick

644
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 1: right thirty? They traded down on it, got trapped stretch.

645
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: So so there's just that's why I just say, man,

646
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: there's a lot of right now here. March twenty first,

647
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: I can't you must do this. Let's see what happens.

648
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: Let's see where you go. Do you need to fix

649
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: this thing at the office? Does someone drop? Is there

650
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 1: someone along the way who baby gets knocked here there

651
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 1: and then they fall? You know, oh, this player is falling,

652
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 1: and maybe we trade up to get the player who knows.

653
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 1: You never know who's gonna get cut. Also, I mean

654
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: Bobby Wagon is out there. I mean, you don't know.

655
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: You don't know. By the way, Um, Dante Fowler agreed

656
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: to one year deal with the Conte Fouler, my old

657
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: Jacksonville teammate. Now, he was a dog though when I

658
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: was there, When I was in Jacksonville at twenty seventeen year,

659
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 1: he was a dull. He can get after you. Um

660
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: as far as he's a great speed off the edge.

661
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: He's a powerful guy, super super athletic. Um. The only

662
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 1: thing that concerns me a little bit about him is

663
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: just once again, just focus, like just just making sure

664
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: you're focused on football. You know, he kind of can

665
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: get distracted from things from time to time, and you know,

666
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 1: we'll see how that plays out here and under Dan Quinn.

667
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 1: But he played I believe under Dan Quinn as well,

668
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: right when he was in Atlanta. So he knows the system,

669
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 1: he knows what Dan and Quinn expects out of him.

670
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: And hopefully he can go out there and kind of

671
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: turn the clock back to those Jacksonville days when he

672
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 1: was getting after the quarterback really had a really high clip.

673
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: So hopefully we can get the best Dante Fowler out there.

674
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: I think that was definitely a solid pickup, especially with

675
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 1: the money. He's twenty seven, we'll turn twenty eight in August.

676
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: Thirty five career sacks, had eleven and a half sacks

677
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 1: for the Rams in twenty nineteen, so when he was

678
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: with Quinny, it was only for a half season because

679
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: he got fired through there. But in ninety one career games,

680
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: he started just forty one of them. So you're really

681
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 1: maybe talking a situational pass rusher. But that's how he

682
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: was for us in Jackson. It was a situational guy.

683
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 1: So I think, all right in terms of this is

684
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: how I think. Okay, so you're talking Duran's Armstrong, Chauncey Golston,

685
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 1: Terrell Basham Hour, a collection of guys, he got a

686
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: good rotation. You got there's a collection of guys here,

687
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: and then you'll see what else happens in the draft.

688
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: I kind of go back to Michael Parsons and so

689
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys had Laton Banderash and they they had Jayalon

690
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: Smith and you had Kean O'Neill, and next thing you know, okay, hey,

691
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 1: now we could add to the room and put into

692
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. So you know, put guys in the room

693
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 1: for now, stack them up, and then didn't see where

694
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: they go. I know, the thought process is, hey, let's

695
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: go get player X like a Von Miller. They didn't

696
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: do that. So since they didn't do that, yeah, jesus

697
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: six four hundred and twenty, it's really a three year deal,

698
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: but still like three for fifty he got like three

699
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 1: for fifty three. So wait, wait thirty four, we're gonna

700
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: be thirty four one a season starter. I would have

701
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: done it. You've done it. Here's why I would have

702
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 1: done it. And I would tell anybody. Just go look

703
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: at the NFL Films video after the game when you

704
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: see Aaron Donald and Von Miller talking and Von says,

705
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: you know, congratulations, and Aaron's like, man, you you talked.

706
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: I listened. I can't thank you enough. So then I

707
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: found out the backstory. Von comes over from Denver and

708
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 1: obviously he sees what a fantastic player that Aaron Donald ball.

709
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: But he's but he said, man, you're too quiet. You're

710
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: way too quiet here. You have to speak up more.

711
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: You have to lead better. Not that he was leading

712
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: in a bad man, but you can go one more level.

713
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: So the kind of things where DeMarcus Ware gets to

714
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,439
Speaker 1: Denver shows von Miller the way of what he needs

715
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 1: to be. Now here's von Miller's super Bowl MVP can

716
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: get to the past telling and this is what you

717
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: need to go here. Who won that game? Aaron Donald

718
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 1: and that defense one? Aaron Donald should have been the MVP.

719
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: He had the two biggest players in the game, and

720
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: they did that. They did the MVP voting with two

721
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: minutes to go. So you did see the final Von

722
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:08,439
Speaker 1: Miller and Von Miller and and and and Aaron Donald.

723
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: Basically a second that they took over. Man, what a

724
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: whole lot of points scored in the sucker um. This

725
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:16,720
Speaker 1: defense played a key role, but Vaughan really helped Aaron

726
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 1: unlocked what he needed to do. So you're basically paying

727
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 1: for the leadership value. You're paying for making sure the

728
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: culture in the locker room is where it needs to

729
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 1: be at and these guys getting lined up in the

730
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 1: right situation. That's what you're essentially paying for when you

731
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 1: get a guy like von Miller, right, and so von

732
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 1: by the way, von Miller saxtions last nine game, he

733
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:36,240
Speaker 1: didn't gonna Yeah, he's still bothered too, like, ain't those scrubs?

734
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 1: So so you put von Miller out there with some

735
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 1: other talented people, he could still make plays. Okay, but

736
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,360
Speaker 1: the Buffalo got that though. I mean they got know,

737
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 1: they got very solid. I don't know if they got

738
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 1: a lot of they got a lot of guys. I think, okay,

739
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: and I go back and yes, from the is he

740
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,760
Speaker 1: gonna have? They got Oliver out there from from Houston.

741
00:35:58,080 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: But the big boy there in the middle, he won't

742
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 1: have to be the Jack Hughes over there to Von

743
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: Miller is gonna be to me once again, Von Miller

744
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 1: is gonna be able to show that this is the

745
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: way to do this. I have to rings on my finger.

746
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 1: You guys want to listen to me and get one

747

Speaker 1: of you guys wanna sit around here and watch Patrick

Speaker 1: Mahomes take thirteen seconds, go down to field, beaching what

749
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: you want to do. That's where a guy like von

750
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 1: Miller can help you. I am just thoroughly convinced of

751
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 1: watching sports through the years, there's guys you bring in

752
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: who help you win, and von Miller is that kind

753
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 1: of guy. But also a guy who can go in

00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 1: faked vocal guys that'll be like, yeah, we gotta do this,

758
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 1: Rob Rob Rob, But really it's just going in the

759
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 1: ear and one out of the other guys. So you

760
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 1: gotta have you know, guys have a specific type of

761
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 1: leader and do Where was that here? And he was

762
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 1: that enough? Denver? Well the reason why Dak was calling

763
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,320
Speaker 1: von Miller, Yeah, please come here, come on, what we

764
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: gotta do. I would have paid the number. I would

765
00:36:58,239 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 1: I would have paid the number because right now, ask

766
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,319
Speaker 1: yourself this, who's the person in this room who's gonna

767
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: show them how to get there and get it done.

768
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: They's got to ring on their finger, and here we

769
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:08,919
Speaker 1: don't have that. Don't happen. We don't have that because

770
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,120
Speaker 1: you know people think it, you know it's d law,

771
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 1: but it's got no ring. Nah. I go back to

772
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,839
Speaker 1: when the Cowboys got over the top and Chris Bean

773
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 1: knows this, it was Charles Hayley. They wouldn't made the

774
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,360
Speaker 1: trade for Charles Hayley, who had won two back to

775
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: back Super Bowls with the San Francisco forty nine ers,

776
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 1: and they got a guy who knows why. He knows

777
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 1: the way, and he took it and he took it over.

778
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 1: He knows the way. And so um, yeah, by the way,

779
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 1: Jerry Hughes free agent. So yeah, is he gonna have

780
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 1: to be the guy? What you're talking about? You Jerry

781
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: Hughes played TCA, TCU. Guy, come down to Dallas. Add another,

782
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 1: add another another one. I pick up the phone, have

783
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 1: a conversation. Um, I like Jerry, I like Jerry. So

784
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 1: so I'm just about leadership, man, I am, and I

785
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 1: think Miller can bring that. I think there's still something

786
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,399
Speaker 1: in the two things. Defense is void of leadership here.

787
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 1: There's no one on this team who can show you

788
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: the way, who can say I've been there with Charles

789
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,319
Speaker 1: Haley was that guy. You had a lot of young

790
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: the Cowboys were the youngest team in football when they

791
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 1: won Super Bowl twenty seven. Having a guy like Charles

792
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 1: was very instrumental. I remembered, and once again it's the

793
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: beauty of NFL films. In the Super Bowl, the Cowboys

794
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 1: had a punt blocked and Buffalo went up early in

795
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: the game, and I remember Butch Davis and Charles Haley

796
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 1: just kind of calmbing guys down. They needed to calm

797
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: down and get themselves going. But everybody's the final score

798
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 1: fifty two to seventeen, But it was not that way.

799
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,439
Speaker 1: The game did not start that way the Rose Bowl.

800
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 1: So having a veteran presence, I believe it helps. Then

801
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: I go back to even when Bill Walsh, who won

802
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 1: his first Super Bowl in San Francisco, he brought Fred

803
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 1: Dean over from the Chargers. While Fred went a Super

804
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 1: Bowl with the Charges at all, the guy had a

805
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: lot of playoff experience and he was like that veteran

806
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: unique because on a group of young dudes, a guy

807
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 1: could show you a way. And right now, I don't

808
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: think there's that person here, I would agree. And then

809
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 1: when I was in Jacksonville that that person happened to

810
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 1: be Klais Campbell because we were basically when wen I

811
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: got down there, it was just a group of just

812
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 1: raw talented, you know, dogs out there with no type

813
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 1: of leadership. I mean, you had the Jalen Ramseys, you

814
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,520
Speaker 1: had the Dante Filers, Miles Jack and all those guys.

815
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,400
Speaker 1: But what Klai has brought besides being a beast on

816
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: the defensive line. He brought that leadership and he brought

817
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 1: that D line group together and that's how they became

818
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 1: Saxonville and us in the secondary with the Jackson five, like,

819
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 1: we just had that guy leading us, letting us know

820
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 1: where to go. And then you saw once he once

821
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,320
Speaker 1: he departed Jacksonville, I mean, their defense was still solid,

822
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: but it just wasn't that same wasn't that same thing?

823
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,320
Speaker 1: Well then I go back into one of your old teammates,

824
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:47,800
Speaker 1: DeMarcus Ware, who said, take von Miller, put him with

825
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:52,760
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. He did. Let let him show Michael Parsons

826
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:57,000
Speaker 1: the way d Wares worked with him, and he's talked

827
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 1: with him. Yeah, but he's not the room every day.

828
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 1: That's say you needed that guy the room. And then

829
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 1: we were harken back to d Law. It's hard to

830
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: be a leader if you're if you're missing games, you're hurt.

831
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 1: You know nothing that it happens, but it players, I'm

832
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 1: talking pella players in that locker room as good as

833
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: you know, D Law is, if you're hurting, not playing

834
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: out there, they're gonna they're gonna be like, oh, yeah,

835
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,279
Speaker 1: you're right, you're right, But are they really gonna take

836
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 1: that to the field. I don't know. So there, there's

837
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: why I would have paid for one. Vaughan Miller. Let's

899
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: interested to see what what his value was at the point.

902
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 1: why while some people are not quote unquote fans of

903
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,319
Speaker 1: the of some of the things that the Cowboys are

904
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: doing here, they don't feel like they've done enough. It's

905
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 1: interesting because people are only happy if you bring in

906
00:43:55,920 --> 00:44:00,399
Speaker 1: a quote unquote name, big, big time player. That's that's

907
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: what they want to them. That's what free agency has

908
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:07,319
Speaker 1: to be. His name, this guy. But the Cowboys don't

909
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,800
Speaker 1: do that. I haven't done it since we brandon Cars.

910
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 1: So it's just very interesting. You're mad about something that

911
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 1: they don't do anymore. You kind of got to know

912
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen, right look at the track record of it.

913
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: It's been, like I said, since twenty twelves, the last

914
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 1: time we got somebody like Brandon car Right. If your

915
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,720
Speaker 1: wife don't make If your wife don't make BlackBerry cobblert,

916
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 1: why are you looking for BlackBerry cobblation. It's not what

917
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 1: you do. It's a number. Get a pie. That's what

918
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:32,759
Speaker 1: she do. I mean. So, so why are you all

919
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 1: looking for BlackBerry pie? And the cowboys they don't want

920
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 1: they're cooking, and it tells you we don't do that.

921
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 1: Don't do that. That's not what I mean. I want

922
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 1: my black beck who chocolate guy, guy whip, one of those.

923
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 1: But this is not what they do. So you keep

924
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 1: going to this menu looking for the high price, high

925
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 1: price ticket. They don't do that. That's not what they serve. Okay,

926
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: the cowboys don't serve that. So why are you on

927
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 1: the meaning you're looking for a Cowboys fan. You ain't

928
00:44:57,040 --> 00:44:58,839
Speaker 1: gonna get it. It's not what they do. They're gonna

929
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: get it. It's not what they do. Van Dash was

930
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:06,800
Speaker 1: one year three, that's what that's what Todd Archer, yes, yes, said,

931
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 1: so I think it's like one five and can get

932
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:12,040
Speaker 1: up to three. Yeah, man, whoa. But remember remember this

933
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 1: was his fifth year. So they they they they did

934
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,120
Speaker 1: not get his option for his fifth year option, which

935
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 1: was going to be like eight. Yeah. No, I mean

936
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: but he's twenty he's twenty six years one five, and

937
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 1: it's okay. So I go back to when I was

938
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 1: at the office and we were kind of going over

939
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 1: the deal and look at the note. I said, man,

940
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: that's a lot. That's not a lot of money to

941
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 1: put your body through. What you put in your body

942
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:37,400
Speaker 1: through Football League one five. His market wasn't he couldn't

943
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 1: get anything from anybody. Man, And even if he gets

944
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 1: to three, it's not a lot of money, that's not

945
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:43,800
Speaker 1: And then, like I'm sitting there, I'm like, okay, he

946
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: like he wasn't at the at the place where he

947
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 1: was his rookie year. I mean, I understanding rookie year.

948
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 1: You know, wolf Hunter, they had the whole HIGL going on.

949
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 1: He was bawling out of control, you know, and then

950
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:54,440
Speaker 1: the next year, you know, everybody kind of took a

951
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 1: step down. But this year he was solid. Well, he

952
00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,520
Speaker 1: had the next problem. Remember that he's got he's got

953
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: an injury, you know, injury history. Even at twenty six.

954
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 1: So this is where I'm just like, I'm that shot.

955
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 1: I thought for sure it would be a minimum five,

956
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 1: and you get, yeah, I don't need five last year,

957
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:15,239
Speaker 1: And I come back and I say this, maybe here

958
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:16,919
Speaker 1: at the point time where you just like it here,

959
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 1: you like living it. And I'm not. I'm not for certain.

960
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:23,360
Speaker 1: I'm not. But I thought I saw him at the

961
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 1: NCAA tournament. It looked just looked like it looked just

962
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 1: like him. Got a guy kind of a little plaid

963
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 1: shirts jeans. I thought I saw Lake Vanderesh Thursday at

964
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 1: the NCAA tournament for Orth the Dickies. So maybe he

965
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 1: just enjoys living, likes his teammates, likes the organization. But

966
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 1: to me, it's like that and and what else did

967
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 1: you have out there? So once? What are we talking

968
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 1: about before? Okay? So so maybe somebody was offering you

969
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:47,200
Speaker 1: some of the similar money. When you started doing the

970
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,759
Speaker 1: taxes numbers on you're like, WHOA, okay, do I want

971
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,440
Speaker 1: to leave? So I have no issue with him coming back.

972
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 1: I think for the Cowboys, this is a guy wants

973
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 1: starting linebacker. Okay, So so they're shocked. I mean, I

974
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 1: thought for sure he would have somebody would give him

975
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 1: a little bit more than that. I'm just look, man,

976
00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 1: he had some injuries. But man, the linebacker market apparently

977
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 1: it isn't as high as I thought it would be. Yeah.

978
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 1: New York Mets manager Buck show Walter once told me

979
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,879
Speaker 1: said he there's no secrets in baseball and the whole

980
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 1: thing here, saying it's like people know, people know what's up.

981
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 1: You know what time it is, right, and so you're late,

982
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 1: Vander is she going out there? I mean, people know

983
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:31,200
Speaker 1: about your history, they know, they know m I'm just like, man,

984
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,279
Speaker 1: I just thought for sure jay Ron curse out here

985
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,440
Speaker 1: now looking for money. And then we talked about it

986
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 1: earlier with what did the Cowboys? They don't pay safeties

987
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 1: we've seen and that's why he's sitting there looking at

988
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: him like man, but really, who how many teams really do?

989
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,680
Speaker 1: And we're talk about Jayron Kursh right now, these secrets

990
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 1: Detroit just a guy Minnesota, just a special teams guy here.

991
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 1: He was good. But you ask yourself how good was he?

992
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 1: It was? It was good. I think he benefited like

993
00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:00,200
Speaker 1: a lot of those guys in the Secretary, I think

994
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:02,800
Speaker 1: they benefited from a hilaicious pass Rush. I think you

995
00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,880
Speaker 1: know that that that and Parsons did. I think I

996
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 1: think he benefited a lot from that um. But I

997
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:11,360
Speaker 1: still think he had a very solid year here. I

998
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:12,680
Speaker 1: think he played. I think he had a very good

999
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 1: year here. But he didn't take the ball away at

1000
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:17,319
Speaker 1: a clip like you know, you see some of these

1001
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:19,320
Speaker 1: tyring Matthews of the world and all the other stuff

1002
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 1: to command a high priced market for him. But and

1003
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:26,920
Speaker 1: he's still the time, He's still out there. So this

1004
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:32,360
Speaker 1: this goes back into number the waves of free agency.

1005
00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:35,239
Speaker 1: You know, the first week, that's when the big money.

00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 1: That's when the big big money. So everybody's everybody's over here,

00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 1: Bro oh man, I got these jeans right out here

1013
00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:07,239
Speaker 1: five dollars one hundred ten dollars jeans, Okay, okay, So

1014
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:10,640
Speaker 1: all right, I'm really interested to see what curses. I

1015
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:13,799
Speaker 1: wonder what he thinks his number should be. And then

1016
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:17,239
Speaker 1: how many years? Is the other thing? Okay, were you

1017
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:20,240
Speaker 1: trying to get a three year deal from somebody? Somebody

1018
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,360
Speaker 1: just say, man, we like it in one. Yeah. And also,

1019
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,360
Speaker 1: and you know this from being a safety, everybody schemes different.

1020
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,840
Speaker 1: What are you asking him to do? And does he

1021
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:31,759
Speaker 1: fit it? He better be smart enough to realize might

1022
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 1: go take this bag and not be be lost out here.

1023
00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:37,279
Speaker 1: I've seen it happened to the best of him. He

1024
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 1: ate the grass ain't always green or somewhere else. But

1025
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,440
Speaker 1: like you said, you gotta strike one irons eyes. I

1026
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: think he thinks this is his this is his opportunity. Okay,

1027
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:46,759
Speaker 1: so so these are these are the things that he

1028
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:49,400
Speaker 1: has to think about. But if you're the Cowboys, I

1029
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 1: think they're playing this correctly. You brought back the league cooker. Okay,

1030
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:55,800
Speaker 1: so you got a guy, yeah the game mileague what

1031
00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 1: two for eight? So basically for four years, so you

1032
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:01,880
Speaker 1: just simp, hey, man, look hold on real I'm just

1055
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:25,319
Speaker 1: has his moments, he's in that if you're if you're

1059
00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:41,399
Speaker 1: the top. He's not that guy. He's not that guy.

1060
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 1: And so the craziest thing of all to me from

1061
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:48,319
Speaker 1: Minnesota is you wouldn't hired a guy Kevin O'Connell because

1062
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 1: he was with him in Washington. He believes in Kirk Cousins.

1063
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 1: So this is one more team that you realize in

1064
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 1: my mind, that's not the dude. So if he's not

1065
00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:00,879
Speaker 1: the dude, get rid of the dude. Go find the dude.

1066
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:03,399
Speaker 1: But they're too scared, Well, oh this wady who cares

1067
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:06,040
Speaker 1: what you owe them? Bite the bullet, they they gonna

1068
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 1: say the Eagles. The Eagles did. They moved on from Carson,

1069
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,440
Speaker 1: were like, you're not the dude. They moved on, made

1070
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,719
Speaker 1: the playoffs with Jayala Hurts, but not Minnesota. Are we

1071
00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,239
Speaker 1: trying to hold on? Man? You could unlock this key

1072
00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,600
Speaker 1: to Kirk. How how long do we gonna keep trying

1073
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:21,279
Speaker 1: to unlock? Did you stop? Man? The key don't work?

1074
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:25,839
Speaker 1: Kirk's a side in them. Check yeah, give me some more.

1075
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,239
Speaker 1: And so so spin up in Minnesota and now has

1076
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:30,720
Speaker 1: to blame Mike Zimmer, who Zimmer didn't like it. Zimmer

1077
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 1: was a deficial coach. Zimmer didn't love him up. Oh so,

1078
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 1: so now Kevin o'cons was to come up here and like,

1079
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:38,839
Speaker 1: you know, he had him in Washington. I'm sorry, did

1080
00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 1: I miss all the winning that was going on in Washington?

1081
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:42,640
Speaker 1: They had one they want to play with one time

1082
00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:46,000
Speaker 1: they went, I mean, did I miss his MVP years

1083
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:49,719
Speaker 1: in Washington? At least Wentz was close. I mean that's

1084
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the thing. You crashed me up. You know,

1085
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 1: he had him in Washington, And what did they do?

1086
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,440
Speaker 1: Here's what they happened in Washington. The ownership was like, man,

1087
00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:02,800
Speaker 1: we don't believe in this, dude. So here's Minnesota. You

1088
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 1: go to the NFC Championship game with Case Keenum. Hey, man, Case,

1089
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:07,839
Speaker 1: you're not good enough to get us over the top.

1090
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,080
Speaker 1: We're gonna get Kirk Cousins. And Kirk Cousins never even

1091
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 1: get you to that point. So they keep giving him

1092
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:17,279
Speaker 1: the money, which to me is so mind boggling. How

1093
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 1: do you keep doing this? How are you still hoping

1094
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:23,880
Speaker 1: that this is the guy. Which stupid is Washington giving

1095
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:27,280
Speaker 1: Carson Wins twenty eight million dollars and trading real picks

1096
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:32,520
Speaker 1: for him wins back in the NFC East. And I'm sorry, man,

1097
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:35,319
Speaker 1: if I'm gonna do that, if I'm gonna dump my guy,

1098
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,959
Speaker 1: He's like, Man, this isn't the dude anymore. I'm gonna

1099
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 1: do what what Denver did. I'll do what Cleveland did.

1100
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,120
Speaker 1: Get someone you know could be that guy. Go get

1101
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:46,400
Speaker 1: the guy. Guy. Hey, man, we're gonna back up these

1102
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:50,920
Speaker 1: picks for this guy. And obviously Watson and Russell Wilson

1103
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:56,640
Speaker 1: had no trade clauses. But if I'm Minnesota, hey, I've

1104
00:53:56,680 --> 00:54:00,640
Speaker 1: got Jefferson here. I got a feeling I got cooked.

1105
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:02,560
Speaker 1: So you want to tell me you couldn't have had

1106
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:05,239
Speaker 1: some conversation, and nobody way to write a big old check.

1107
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:10,240
Speaker 1: Write a big old check. Go go solve your problem

1108
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,840
Speaker 1: playing indoors with a real dude, with a dude who's proven.

1109
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:18,799
Speaker 1: Not these guys who who were thinking maybe Kurt's real

1110
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:23,239
Speaker 1: accurate that everybody comes back to the accuracy. Man, what

1111
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,719
Speaker 1: about these wins and losses? Man? Right, all right, this

1112
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:30,160
Speaker 1: is not the guy. I mean you or they're acting

1113
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 1: as though they've got Matthew Stafford, like, hey, you know

1114
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:36,160
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford here the ray he was I mean, no, no,

1115
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,400
Speaker 1: Kirk is not Matthew Stafford. He's not even Matthew Stafford,

1116
00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 1: I know where near the arm talent staff Hey. So

1117
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:42,920
Speaker 1: it's just like why did we keep lying to ourselves

1118
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 1: about these dudes, like like Carson Winston, Kirk Cousins, these

1119
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:50,960
Speaker 1: are not the guys. And who did you hear in

1120
00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:57,799
Speaker 1: Indianapolis talk about missing Carson Wentz out the door? Did

1121
00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:01,520
Speaker 1: you hear did you p Now one team May said

1122
00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:05,080
Speaker 1: nothing said day ain't nothing nothing, No team May ain't

1123
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:09,080
Speaker 1: stick coach back jming it back on. I mean, nobody

1124
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:11,920
Speaker 1: just let him ride. And Washington's gonna give a real picks.

1125
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:14,800
Speaker 1: You guys, give a real picks for twenty p twenty

1126
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:18,239
Speaker 1: eight and twenty you could have win got Jamis for

1127
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:25,000
Speaker 1: five jams. I mean, I just say, you're gambling on

1128
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:26,799
Speaker 1: the guy that two teams sit now, man, we can

1129
00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 1: we can't. We can't even mess with it, right right,

1130
00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:31,719
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, Man, you pay it's got thirty five meters man.

1131
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:33,480
Speaker 1: Kevin o'connob but he knew he knows what to do

1132
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:36,279
Speaker 1: with it. Kevin O'Connor better hope he's did you better

1133
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:39,480
Speaker 1: better Hope Kevin O'Connor can untap something. But I just

1134
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:43,600
Speaker 1: don't at this point, what is there to untap. He's

1135
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 1: showing you what he is. Thank you, Kirk Cousin. Is

1136
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 1: what it is. Guys, It's just going to He will

1137
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:53,000
Speaker 1: continue to leave you wanting more. Yeah, it's like he'll

1138
00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 1: go on a spurt where he might win three of

1139
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:56,200
Speaker 1: four games in a row and then you'll end the

1140
00:55:56,280 --> 00:56:01,319
Speaker 1: season eight nine seven and or something like that. Oh,

1141
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:02,680
Speaker 1: we get if we just had this one thing, we

1142
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:07,680
Speaker 1: could get turned around. Nah. Man, it's insanity, Yes, it is.

1143
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:09,840
Speaker 1: It is. And so while people get frustrated with the

1144
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 1: Cowboys and what they're doing, like maybe I get it,

1145
00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 1: but look around the league and see what other folks

1146
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:17,920
Speaker 1: are doing, and at times it just say okay, um,

1147
00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,279
Speaker 1: it's easy to look at the Chargers and say, man,

1148
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 1: look they went out there and they got Khalil Mac,

1149
00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:24,319
Speaker 1: they got Jason Jackson. Looking at their defense, they're gonna

1150
00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:26,120
Speaker 1: do this and this, and then let's see how it

1151
00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 1: turns out. Let's see what my boy Herbert can do.

1152
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:31,800
Speaker 1: You know, let's let's see how it turns out. And

1153
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:33,960
Speaker 1: my big thing with the charges, you still got their

1154
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:41,200
Speaker 1: head coach, who should have just this stupid decisions. We're

1155
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:43,120
Speaker 1: gonna go for it right here, we go for a touchdown.

1156
00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:44,759
Speaker 1: I said of taking three and a half a Now,

1157
00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 1: it was stupid stuff, man, you know, lost the opportunity

1158
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:51,799
Speaker 1: to make the playoffs. So I mean, let's let's see

1159
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:55,160
Speaker 1: how these moves all work out. And I know it's

1160
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:58,080
Speaker 1: marching cowboy fan. I get it. You're frustrated, you're mad,

1161
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:00,600
Speaker 1: you want, you want to have all the got a

1162
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:03,600
Speaker 1: lot to play out. We'll see, we'll see. And and

1163
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:08,920
Speaker 1: in the division right now is what Washington? What Washington

1164
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:10,680
Speaker 1: does that making you? You shake it in your boots

1165
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:13,440
Speaker 1: about that, anybody, Daniel Jones, don't scare you. You know

1166
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,120
Speaker 1: Washington wins. We played him hundreds of times, right, Philly

1167
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:17,600
Speaker 1: got you know, they got a little sum over there.

1168
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:20,040
Speaker 1: But I think nothing to be scared. Though they've got

1169
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:22,680
Speaker 1: issues as well. Exactly, they've got issues as well. So

1170
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:27,240
Speaker 1: I mean, right now, okay, Tom Brady's back, so let's

1171
00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 1: see what Tampa does. But even we saw they returned

1172
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 1: twenty two. You know they didn't win it. I mean, shoot,

1173
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 1: the Cowboys almost beat him down there. If it wasn't

1174
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:36,960
Speaker 1: for Hookam left missing them a couple of field goals.

1175
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,200
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows. So so yeah, so let's see,

1176
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: let's see where these things go. And that's the problem

1177
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,280
Speaker 1: is everybody wants it to look perfect right now, and

1178
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:47,760
Speaker 1: it just never does. I didn't go back to the draft.

1179
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:51,480
Speaker 1: How many people were not happy about Michael Parsons. Yeah,

1180
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:53,840
Speaker 1: I was one of them, and and how did it

1181
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 1: turn out? So so so just just let it, let

1182
00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 1: it play out some more. The Cowboys do not play

1183
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 1: in the first week or free agency in terms of

1184
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:05,640
Speaker 1: signing big dollar contracts. It's not what they do. I

1185
00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:08,960
Speaker 1: haven't been doing it. And while you can argue about

1186
00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:12,200
Speaker 1: not wanting, well what have we done? They just bring

1187
00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:18,240
Speaker 1: back our own and what is that the worst thing

1188
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 1: in the world to do, because they've been drafting well,

1189
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:23,040
Speaker 1: so their own are some pretty good players, you know,

1190
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,360
Speaker 1: some pretty good players. So we'll see hopefully Gallup you know,

1191
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:29,520
Speaker 1: can come back and not have you know, not lose

1192
00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:32,000
Speaker 1: a step or take a step back and ceedee Lamb

1193
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:33,720
Speaker 1: can take that you know, next step to being a

1194
00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:37,640
Speaker 1: number one and James Washington will have an opportunity, have

1195
00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 1: an opportunity. He's he's another one of those deep ball

1196
00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:42,320
Speaker 1: fifty fifty type guys. So so here here's a guy

1197
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:47,280
Speaker 1: with an opportunity. So you can criticize the process and

1198
00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 1: not liking it, but at the same time, I would

1199
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,840
Speaker 1: challenge you start looking around just your division, because that

1200
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:55,280
Speaker 1: the first thing you need to do is win your division. Yeah, okay,

1201
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:57,960
Speaker 1: you get get yourself to the playoffs. Start looking have

1202
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:01,840
Speaker 1: you have you been lapped in the NFC? Yeah? Washington

1203
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 1: still talking about, oh, well, you know we'll be better

1204
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:05,920
Speaker 1: defensively this time around. Well last year you said they

1205
00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:07,880
Speaker 1: were supposed to be a top ten defense last year,

1206
00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:09,920
Speaker 1: and we all seen what happened, right, and you know

1207
00:59:09,960 --> 00:59:11,520
Speaker 1: you play all defense you want to. You still got

1208
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:16,680
Speaker 1: quarterback issues with good luck good luck. So um, that's

1209
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 1: why I'm just just saying, all right, I'm not gonna

1210
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:21,040
Speaker 1: beat them up as much as everyone else has. But

1211
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:23,440
Speaker 1: I understand the frustration. But also you have to understand

1212
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:25,760
Speaker 1: the logic and how they know about their business. Von

1213
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:27,800
Speaker 1: Miller w wasn't coming here. I wish Von Miller was,

1214
00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:30,560
Speaker 1: I really do. I would have done it, but they said, no,

1215
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:33,640
Speaker 1: this is our this is our process. So we'll see,

1216
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 1: we'll see where they go. Um, I'll be interested if

1217
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,600
Speaker 1: they go linebacker in a draft tool because with the

1218
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:42,600
Speaker 1: one five it seems like, I mean, that's that's like

1219
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:45,000
Speaker 1: almost you gotta make the team type money. To me,

1220
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 1: I'm still fixing fix your office and defensive lines. Yeah,

1221
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:52,160
Speaker 1: the line of the line. I think we were decent

1222
00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 1: a d line. Okay, you're trying. We need maybe some

1223
00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:57,400
Speaker 1: interior pieces you want you want to be decent or

1224
00:59:57,400 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 1: do you want to be next level? Getting next level?

1225
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:02,880
Speaker 1: I mean, look Mann, you gonna get you get one

1226
01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:05,480
Speaker 1: of them kids from Georgia. And that's where Quinn was,

1227
01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:07,600
Speaker 1: all right, you go ahead and get your sitting down there.

1228
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:10,440
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, go down kids from Georgia and we

1229
01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:15,080
Speaker 1: all right. You know so I'm still about fix get better.

1230
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:19,560
Speaker 1: That travels your your offensive and defensive lines travel, so

1231
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:21,960
Speaker 1: get better there. We definitely offered the line of the show.

1232
01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:24,400
Speaker 1: That's a out of sofa. So when you start to

1233
01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:28,280
Speaker 1: outside of Zach Martin, when you talk about your offensive

1234
01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:31,080
Speaker 1: defensive line, who else is your blue chip player? That's

1235
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:34,320
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Okay, especially on the defensive line. I

1236
01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:36,360
Speaker 1: can't say the Laws a blue chip anymore. I mean,

1237
01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:39,479
Speaker 1: he's so many games because he's not same with Tyren

1238
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 1: Smith on the on the offensive line. We can't say

1239
01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:43,920
Speaker 1: that because he's not. So you have one, you got

1240
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,240
Speaker 1: so right said right there alone. Man, that that's that's

1241
01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:49,120
Speaker 1: that's a bunch of spot And look at the playoff

1242
01:00:49,160 --> 01:00:51,440
Speaker 1: game how we got that's that's essentially how we got

1243
01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:53,720
Speaker 1: bullied in that game in the trenches. We lost the

1244
01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,600
Speaker 1: battle in the trenches. So that's why I like it's

1245
01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:58,960
Speaker 1: twenty four right now. I'm looking looking at something. I

1246
01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:01,040
Speaker 1: gotta ask some beef up here, and he's a blue

1247
01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:05,400
Speaker 1: chip beef because you win by playing well upfront. And

1248
01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:09,360
Speaker 1: when you look at the Cowboys championship teams, Cowboys championship teams, man,

1249
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,920
Speaker 1: they were good in the trenches on both sides, I

1250
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:14,479
Speaker 1: would say so. So to me go right there, because

1251
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:18,600
Speaker 1: if you're good up front, everything else can work everything

1252
01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: on both sides. If you're good upfront, man, everything else

1253
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,640
Speaker 1: can work around that. So to me build right there

1254
01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:27,200
Speaker 1: and keep improving. Hey, church man, fun is always man.

1255
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 1: We will love to do it again next Monday. Danny
