<v Speaker 2>We've got to find a way to fit him.

0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:46.799
<v Speaker 4>Some sponsors going to pick him up. Maybe a black rifle,

0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:48.359
<v Speaker 4>take out a page ad.

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:49.440

0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:04.399
<v Speaker 5>Do we get to pick the outfits? Oh?

0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:08.680
<v Speaker 7>Man, let's got to be right. I don't get excited.

0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 7>The prices gotta be right.

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:12.480
<v Speaker 2>What would the price be? Talk about it because you

0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 2>have to give four numbers or five?

0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:17.200
<v Speaker 7>You have to give them. My agent might be six,

0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:18.079
<v Speaker 7>depending on the office.

0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:21.720
<v Speaker 5>Oh, I don't know if we got that. We don't

0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:23.960
<v Speaker 5>have that kind of I can't raise that kind of bread.

0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:24.280
<v Speaker 9>Now.

0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.280
<v Speaker 2>I've heard of it being a fantasy football punishment.

0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:29.239
<v Speaker 5>Have you ever heard of that. It's a fantasy where

0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:29.840
<v Speaker 5>you do the.

0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:36.600
<v Speaker 4>At the end of the season, the last place UH

0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:38.560
<v Speaker 4>player in your fantasy football.

0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:41.840
<v Speaker 2>League has to do calendar shoot the body issue.

0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 5>Yes, let's do it.

0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:45.480
<v Speaker 2>Like and and everybody gets a copy.

0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 5>We're doing this year fantasy football.

0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:51.560
<v Speaker 2>Your hands going to stand there for a long time.

0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:56.040
<v Speaker 1>I'll do fantasy football, but I'm not doing it calendar.

0:03:56.280 --> 0:03:57.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, well, just don't lose.

0:03:57.800 --> 0:03:58.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh is that how it works?

0:03:59.440 --> 0:03:59.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Because I said that last year and I ended up

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:02.320
<v Speaker 2>taking the s a T.

0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:05.280
<v Speaker 8>So it sounds like somebody's never played fancy football because.

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:06.400
<v Speaker 1>I have much luck involved with it.

0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:09.440
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, there is yeah here.

0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:12.960
<v Speaker 2>For those that are listening, my hand is extended and

0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:13.920
<v Speaker 2>looking at it. Right.

0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:23.200
<v Speaker 5>Surprise, oh surprise. Come on, man, we're gonna raise some funds.

0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:24.440
<v Speaker 5>Beamer wouldn't lose.

0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:25.240
<v Speaker 2>That's the thing.

0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:27.279
<v Speaker 5>In fact, exactly got that.

0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:31.400
<v Speaker 4>I don't want to play against Beamer in anything, especially cornhole.

0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 5>Somebody asked me about cornhole last week and I had

0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:35.920
<v Speaker 5>They were like, man, I do, but you're really good

0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:38.760
<v Speaker 5>at cornhole. I was like, actually, I am, actually relatively okay,

0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:41.160
<v Speaker 5>except for when I play against guys like Beamer. Because

0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:43.200
<v Speaker 5>Beamer destroyed me, made it seem like I was a

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:45.920
<v Speaker 5>young boy and he was a Doug on Jedi night

0:04:46.200 --> 0:04:47.159
<v Speaker 5>at training camp.

0:04:47.000 --> 0:04:49.640
<v Speaker 7>This year, Beamers mister cornhole.

0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 5>Yes, yeah, I I I take my hat off for him.

0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:55.599
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's get into some news and notes.

0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:58.159
<v Speaker 4>There's a couple of things going on and have been

0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:00.279
<v Speaker 4>going on around the Star in first go, mostly after

0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:04.239
<v Speaker 4>related nick Whenever you look at Dallas day thirty visits

0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:07.120
<v Speaker 4>starting this week, the big twelve Pro day was in town.

0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:08.640
<v Speaker 2>Where do you want to start with those?

0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:11.400
<v Speaker 6>Well, we can also start with owners meetings last week,

0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.360
<v Speaker 6>just kind of what wrapped up there in Orlando last week,

0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:17.560
<v Speaker 6>the new kickoff rule getting approved, which is it's fascinating

0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:19.760
<v Speaker 6>because they adopted it from the XFL. But then you

0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:21.760
<v Speaker 6>look at the UFL this last weekend and they just

0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:23.920
<v Speaker 6>ended up going right back to the normal kickoff rules,

0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:25.840
<v Speaker 6>except they pushed it back to the twenty yard line.

0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:29.120
<v Speaker 6>So it's kind of fascinating that they basically just swapped

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:29.760
<v Speaker 6>kickoff rules.

0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:33.000
<v Speaker 7>But we'll see how that goes into play this next year.

0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:36.960
<v Speaker 6>Kickers are incentivized to kick it between the goal line

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:38.680
<v Speaker 6>and the twenty yard line instead of just kicking it

0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:40.560
<v Speaker 6>out of the end zone as far as they can,

0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:43.400
<v Speaker 6>so that'll be an interesting adjustment for Brandon Aubrey and

0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:45.600
<v Speaker 6>then Cavante's turpin. He's gonna have to really dial in

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:48.640
<v Speaker 6>on his field vision to get some big returns. I

0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:50.240
<v Speaker 6>know I've been critical of his field vision on this

0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:52.720
<v Speaker 6>podcast in the past, so I think there's gonna have

0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:54.400
<v Speaker 6>to be some improvement there with Turpin to be able

0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:56.440
<v Speaker 6>to break some of those returns in that new kickoff role.

0:05:57.080 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 6>But moving past off of owners meetings. Yeah, as you mentioned, Kyle,

0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:04.320
<v Speaker 6>thirty visits this week. Dallas Day was yesterday, Big twelve

0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:05.720
<v Speaker 6>Pro Day was this past weekend at the Star.

0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:07.680
<v Speaker 7>A lot of things happening thirty visits.

0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 6>Will have a little bit more on the Draft show

0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:12.000
<v Speaker 6>on that, but basically they're bringing in thirty of their

0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:15.040
<v Speaker 6>top prospects, you know, the across all seven rounds that

0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:16.720
<v Speaker 6>you know they want to talk with and meet with

0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:19.600
<v Speaker 6>more in person, and they'll go through basically a car

0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:22.279
<v Speaker 6>wash talking to people around the building, whether it be

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:26.560
<v Speaker 6>front office coaches, position coaches, strength and conditioning, scouting, all

0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.440
<v Speaker 6>of that. It's a really good opportunity for the team

0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:30.800
<v Speaker 6>to be able to meet with these guys and get

0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.880
<v Speaker 6>a better view of who they are in person. And

0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:36.480
<v Speaker 6>then after that it's it's all full steam ahead.

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:36.839
<v Speaker 7>Into the draft.

0:06:36.839 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 5>Here.

0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:39.760
<v Speaker 7>We're getting about three weeks away, which is crazy.

0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:43.080

<v Speaker 5>I went to I went to Dallas.

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:48.479
<v Speaker 7>To Seattle for like a local day.

0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:51.640
<v Speaker 5>He didn't go to Seattle. It was not in their

0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:52.039
<v Speaker 5>top thirty.

0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:53.320
<v Speaker 7>Did you feel the type of way?

0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:54.960
<v Speaker 5>But not even a little bit, not even a little bit.

0:06:55.000 --> 0:06:57.800
<v Speaker 5>I went to Dallas, I went to Saint Louis at

0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:02.279
<v Speaker 5>the time, I went to Jacksonville in Miami.

0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:04.599
<v Speaker 2>Okay, which one was your favorite?

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:07.880
<v Speaker 7>So to say, there's three really bad airports there, But.

0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:10.400
<v Speaker 5>And I had to and I had to fly back

0:07:10.960 --> 0:07:12.960
<v Speaker 5>to I think I was in LA at the time.

0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:15.200
<v Speaker 5>I had to fly back to LA every time, like

0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.720
<v Speaker 5>they wouldn't let you go, Like if I flew to

0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:22.080
<v Speaker 5>Dallas Lois. I was rehabing in LA, so like they

0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:24.240
<v Speaker 5>wouldn't let me fly to Dallas and in the Saint Louis.

0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:26.000
<v Speaker 5>Like there was one time I flew from LA to

0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:28.720
<v Speaker 5>Miami and then I had to fly back to LA

0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:33.480
<v Speaker 5>just to fly back to Jacksonville. Yeah, there's a lot

0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:35.960
<v Speaker 5>of flying, bro But now there were good visits. I

0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:38.640
<v Speaker 5>remember sitting down with Double J the first time had

0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:40.680
<v Speaker 5>an opportunity to do that. I remember flying at the

0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:43.320
<v Speaker 5>DFW and that was my first time ever experiencing that,

0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:45.160
<v Speaker 5>and I was like, this is the biggest airport in

0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:48.200
<v Speaker 5>the world. And I don't remember where we met, but

0:07:48.200 --> 0:07:50.640
<v Speaker 5>I feel like we met at the airport there. I

0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:53.280
<v Speaker 5>mean we met at the hotel at the airport. I

0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:55.480
<v Speaker 5>think that's yeah. I think it was there because I

0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:57.880
<v Speaker 5>remember still seeing the airport while I was there, So

0:07:57.920 --> 0:07:59.080
<v Speaker 5>that was that was interesting.

0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:01.200
<v Speaker 10>Uh.

0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:02.840
<v Speaker 5>The one that I hated the most, I can tell

0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:04.840
<v Speaker 5>you that the one I hated the most was Miami

0:08:05.400 --> 0:08:08.080
<v Speaker 5>because Miami had messed around with my foot at the

0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:10.320
<v Speaker 5>time I was rehabbing my foot from tearing out tearing

0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:13.240
<v Speaker 5>my my list list Frank injury, and they had already

0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:16.120
<v Speaker 5>contorted my foot in a really bad way. I think

0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:17.520
<v Speaker 5>I might to share that at some point in time

0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:21.600
<v Speaker 5>at the combine, and I didn't really take a good

0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:25.000
<v Speaker 5>liking to that, and I went down there and they

0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:27.800
<v Speaker 5>did more of that, and their doctors were pretty much

0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:30.800
<v Speaker 5>just like prodding me, just just just doing everything they

0:08:30.800 --> 0:08:33.080
<v Speaker 5>could to try to elicit any kind of pain reaction

0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:35.800
<v Speaker 5>from me to see exactly how far along I was

0:08:35.920 --> 0:08:40.080
<v Speaker 5>in rehab. And then they took a kicker. I think, wow. Yeah,

0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:41.920
<v Speaker 5>they called me and woke me up as well. The

0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:43.600
<v Speaker 5>second day of the draft, because that's when they were

0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.920
<v Speaker 5>doing the first It was the first three rounds Day one,

0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:48.280
<v Speaker 5>and then it was four through seven Day two. Back

0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:50.840
<v Speaker 5>back in two thousand and seven when I got drafted

0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.840
<v Speaker 5>and they called and woke me up from my sleep

0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:56.200
<v Speaker 5>and then took a dog on a kicker I believe

0:08:56.240 --> 0:08:56.760
<v Speaker 5>it was or a pun.

0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:57.120
<v Speaker 7>Wow.

0:08:57.200 --> 0:08:58.959
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I was pretty angry so Miami I was that

0:08:59.080 --> 0:08:59.960
<v Speaker 5>was not a fan of Miami.

0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:01.480
<v Speaker 7>How long did that kicker make in the league.

0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:02.040
<v Speaker 5>I don't know.

0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:04.640
<v Speaker 7>I'm gonna make it further than the mood.

0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:05.640
<v Speaker 5>I don't even know who was.

0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:08.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I'm going to figure it out.

0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:10.560
<v Speaker 5>Who do they take in the in the fourth?

0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:13.959
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, but we early I think I think that's what

0:09:14.400 --> 0:09:16.440
<v Speaker 8>the fourth if you done a by the Dolphins, Yeah,

0:09:16.840 --> 0:09:18.480
<v Speaker 8>they to take him in the third because you went

0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:19.240
<v Speaker 8>the fourth.

0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:20.360
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I went top and four.

0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:24.400
<v Speaker 1>Well the third only took Lorenzo Booker running back.

0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:29.320
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. But anyway, so yeah, that was my top thirty.

0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:31.120
<v Speaker 1>We're going to get to the bottom of this.

0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:33.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, if my memory might be jacked up, I got

0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:42.000
<v Speaker 5>hit a few times. Yeah, upon after that's what That's

0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:44.839
<v Speaker 5>what I think it was. It was Jacksonville took upon Jacksonville.

0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:50.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Pittsburgh took Daniels Sada from UH Baylor.

0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:55.199
<v Speaker 1>No one more time. It sounded there you go.

0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:58.439
<v Speaker 5>But you know the business was cool, man, But you know,

0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.280
<v Speaker 5>you see guys, you don't really see a lot of guys,

0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:02.160
<v Speaker 5>like it's kind of like you're kind of everything is

0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:04.640
<v Speaker 5>very scheduled. Remember, at least at that time, everything was

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.840
<v Speaker 5>very scheduled. You didn't really pass a lot of guys.

0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:09.680
<v Speaker 5>It wasn't like, oh, we're all eating in the same spot.

0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:12.080
<v Speaker 5>It was like you fly in, you meet, you fly out.

0:10:12.800 --> 0:10:14.920
<v Speaker 5>At that time, Yeah, I don't know how different it

0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:15.360
<v Speaker 5>is now.

0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:19.079
<v Speaker 4>It's not far off player that you're a drafted I

0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:22.160
<v Speaker 4>mean from a from a thirty visit standpoint. Right now,

0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:25.400
<v Speaker 4>you come in, you you immediately meet, You usually eat

0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:27.520
<v Speaker 4>breakfast at the facility. You get to meet with a

0:10:27.520 --> 0:10:30.679
<v Speaker 4>bunch of coaches, position coaches, and then they set up

0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:31.600
<v Speaker 4>blocks of times.

0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:32.960
<v Speaker 2>I meet with the.

0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:36.760
<v Speaker 4>Front office staff, then you meet with the scouts, then

0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:39.040
<v Speaker 4>you meet with the coaching and then you meet with

0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:41.000
<v Speaker 4>the head coach, and it's kind of like all over

0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:43.360
<v Speaker 4>it's just a block day and then you you fly

0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:45.520
<v Speaker 4>out later at that in the night so it's not

0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:46.560
<v Speaker 4>too far off from.

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:49.520
<v Speaker 2>What you had. Maybe another free meal or two thrown in,

0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:53.880
<v Speaker 2>but not at all. That's that's really what it looks like. Yep,

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:54.439
<v Speaker 2>that's cool.

0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:57.240
<v Speaker 4>It is important to keep track of thirty visits though,

0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:01.480
<v Speaker 4>because I mean, the Cowboys traditionally will take some multiple

0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:04.680
<v Speaker 4>thirty visits in the upcoming draft and at different times

0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:06.960
<v Speaker 4>in the draft. It may not be the first round pick,

0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:09.120
<v Speaker 4>but it could be your second round pick, third round pick.

0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:10.840
<v Speaker 5>Who knows how much of that do you think or

0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:12.560
<v Speaker 5>your fits? I guess per I guess it depends on

0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:14.599
<v Speaker 5>last year they took a sixth in terms of a

0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:18.439
<v Speaker 5>gainsmanship being that because that kind of it can kind

0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:20.880
<v Speaker 5>of tip your hat in terms of who you're really

0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:22.920
<v Speaker 5>looking at. How much of that is like kind of

0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:25.640
<v Speaker 5>gamesmanship in terms of, oh, we're gonna bring this guy in?

0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:28.880
<v Speaker 8>Just because I will say that under Jason Garrett it

0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.120
<v Speaker 8>was very telling who the thirty. It has not been

0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:34.760
<v Speaker 8>as telling under Mike McCarthy, but under j when Jason

0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:37.319
<v Speaker 8>Garrett was head coach man, that was a really good bet.

0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 8>I want to say all of his first round picks,

0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:43.120
<v Speaker 8>aside from mow Clayborn, were thirty visit guys, whereas with

0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:46.200
<v Speaker 8>the Cowboys, I don't think.

0:11:46.120 --> 0:11:47.320
<v Speaker 1>Ceedee Lamb was a thirty visit.

0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:48.480
<v Speaker 7>I don't believe.

0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.560
<v Speaker 8>So there's been a couple that and since McCarthy's been actors,

0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:53.800
<v Speaker 8>they didn't take yeah so well.

0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:55.920
<v Speaker 4>And like Jalen Hurts was a thirty visit in that

0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:58.200
<v Speaker 4>twenty twenty draft because it was the virtual and they

0:11:58.240 --> 0:12:00.640
<v Speaker 4>did all the right that stuff. So Aalen Hurts was

0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:04.480
<v Speaker 4>technically a thirty visit. Tyler Smith was not. Micah and

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:09.040
<v Speaker 4>Mazie were. So it's like it's not completely telling. And

0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:11.040
<v Speaker 4>I mean you'll see at times last year they had

0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:13.200
<v Speaker 4>a ton of receivers in the building. They had Quinton

0:12:13.240 --> 0:12:16.280
<v Speaker 4>Johnston from TCU, they had Jackson Smith and Jigbu.

0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:19.160
<v Speaker 2>From rock Wall. That's kind of a Dallas Day thing.

0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:22.920
<v Speaker 4>But they have these guys, these these position groups that

0:12:22.960 --> 0:12:26.400
<v Speaker 4>they have no interest in taking currently that will come

0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:28.320
<v Speaker 4>in and either that's a part of the gamemanship just

0:12:28.360 --> 0:12:32.840
<v Speaker 4>to kind of like muddy the water or its future consideration.

0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:35.120
<v Speaker 4>You know, hey, we're not going to trade up to

0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:38.120
<v Speaker 4>go get Caleb Williams, but you may bring him in

0:12:38.200 --> 0:12:40.520
<v Speaker 4>just to go see like what's going on, Like how's

0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:42.680
<v Speaker 4>how's he processed the game, how does he do on

0:12:42.679 --> 0:12:45.439
<v Speaker 4>a whiteboard? How does he mesh with coaching staff? I

0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:47.760
<v Speaker 4>mean all that kind of stuff matters. So that way

0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:49.840
<v Speaker 4>down the road, seven or eight years, who knows.

0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:52.280
<v Speaker 2>Maybe Kayleb Williams is available. And that's just another conversation.

0:12:52.280 --> 0:12:54.240
<v Speaker 6>If Washington had the number one overall pick and it

0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:56.960
<v Speaker 6>was like as certain as it is for Chicago taking

0:12:57.000 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 6>Kayleb Williams, would you waste a thirty visit on bringing

0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:00.480
<v Speaker 6>Kaleb Williams in just to see what he's just to

0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:02.000
<v Speaker 6>see what he's going, just to pick his brain.

0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:03.480
<v Speaker 2>Sure I would.

0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:05.760
<v Speaker 7>If you're Callabiyas as an agent, would you show up?

0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:08.320
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:09.040
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I think so?

0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:12.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Okay, interesting, Yeah, that's a.

0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:14.080
<v Speaker 2>Good point too.

0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:16.720
<v Speaker 4>There was a guy that was, i mean top top

0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:19.320
<v Speaker 4>five eligible the last couple of years that came in.

0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:20.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna have to come go back and look at

0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:21.240
<v Speaker 2>my notes.

0:13:21.280 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 8>I would go to every single thirty visit that invited

0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:25.880
<v Speaker 8>to I wasn't the number one, surely yeah, because I

0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:27.880
<v Speaker 8>would be just fine. If some really good team is

0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:29.760
<v Speaker 8>going to package up a ton of picks, they come

0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:31.440
<v Speaker 8>up and get me and I'm in a way better

0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:32.559
<v Speaker 8>situation than going.

0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:34.360
<v Speaker 1>To whoever was the worst tea in the year before.

0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:38.800
<v Speaker 5>Like, yeah, Also, I hope that these agents are passing

0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:43.600
<v Speaker 5>along wisdom in terms of the long game, right, because yeah,

0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:45.880
<v Speaker 5>there might be teams that are trying to get you

0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:49.360
<v Speaker 5>to come to a thirty visit that aren't anywhere in

0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:51.480
<v Speaker 5>position to take you. Yeah, right, you know, obviously they

0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:54.000
<v Speaker 5>could do trades and things of that nature, but realistically

0:13:54.040 --> 0:13:55.560
<v Speaker 5>they're not in a position to take you in this

0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:57.720
<v Speaker 5>year's draft at the pick that you're most likely going

0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:01.600
<v Speaker 5>to go at. But five years from now, you don't

0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:05.000
<v Speaker 5>know how that meeting can have an impact on what

0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:08.040
<v Speaker 5>may come into future. So in terms of the long games,

0:14:08.120 --> 0:14:10.240
<v Speaker 5>you know, relationship building, you know, how is your you know,

0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:12.440
<v Speaker 5>how is your character? You know, are you going to

0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:14.200
<v Speaker 5>come on the visit? Do you think that you're bigger

0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:16.400
<v Speaker 5>than the organization? Do you think that you're bigger than

0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:18.120
<v Speaker 5>the pick? Like, there's so many other things that you

0:14:18.160 --> 0:14:20.480
<v Speaker 5>can take away from that that I hope that these

0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:23.160
<v Speaker 5>agents are putting their guys in position to take advantage

0:14:23.200 --> 0:14:25.800
<v Speaker 5>of if they're invited on some of these thirty visits.

0:14:27.600 --> 0:14:29.520
<v Speaker 2>That's the point of the thirty visit.

0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:32.640
<v Speaker 4>Right is to get to know these products or these prospects,

0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:34.880
<v Speaker 4>to get to know them on a deeper level than

0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:37.680
<v Speaker 4>just film and medicals, because that's that's what they have

0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:40.800
<v Speaker 4>right now, is film medicals, and then any informal or

0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:42.280
<v Speaker 4>formal meeting that they've had, either at.

0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:44.720
<v Speaker 2>The Senior Bowl or combine down the road. This is

0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:47.160
<v Speaker 2>the formal formalism ultimately what.

0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:49.840
<v Speaker 8>It is the thing with him talking about the foot, though,

0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:51.840
<v Speaker 8>if I was coming off of an injury, I think

0:14:51.840 --> 0:14:55.040
<v Speaker 8>maybe that might now hearing that story hinder that. Yeah,

0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:56.360
<v Speaker 8>where I'm like, I don't know if I need to

0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:58.280
<v Speaker 8>go to every single and again I'm talking about you know,

0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:00.880
<v Speaker 8>vit number one overall picked or likely going to be

0:15:00.880 --> 0:15:01.800
<v Speaker 8>the number one overall pick.

0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:03.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I want all these teams doing

0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:04.720
<v Speaker 1>that to me.

0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:08.640
<v Speaker 8>And yes, but if I'm healthy and they just want

0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:10.440
<v Speaker 8>to sit down and talk to me, like, I don't

0:15:10.440 --> 0:15:11.520
<v Speaker 8>think I would turn anybody down.

0:15:12.080 --> 0:15:14.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, all right, let's take our first break. When we

0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:14.920
<v Speaker 2>come back.

0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:17.800
<v Speaker 4>I want to talk a little bit about the cap situation,

0:15:18.440 --> 0:15:21.520
<v Speaker 4>And I know that sounds kind of broad, but that's.

0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:22.520
<v Speaker 2>What it needs to be.

0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:25.720
<v Speaker 4>The cap situation is what it is for the Cowboys

0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:28.120
<v Speaker 4>because of X. We're going to talk about that and

0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:29.840
<v Speaker 4>what the Cowboys could do for the rest of the

0:15:29.840 --> 0:15:33.640
<v Speaker 4>off season because we're weeks at this point into free.

0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Agency and there still hasn't been a ton of movement.

0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:37.040
<v Speaker 4>We're going to talk about it when we come back

0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:38.760
<v Speaker 4>right after this on Talking Cowboys.

0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:41.680
<v Speaker 3>Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:44.680
<v Speaker 3>cheatah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought

0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:47.640
<v Speaker 3>online was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be

0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:50.200
<v Speaker 3>faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per ho.

0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:52.680
<v Speaker 3>But the good news is Todd has AT and T

0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:55.440
<v Speaker 3>five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he

0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:57.760
<v Speaker 3>learned the best thing to do is stop running and

0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:00.440
<v Speaker 3>toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and

0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:04.080
<v Speaker 3>T five G. Fast, reliable, secure, It's not complicated.

<v Speaker 4>tough time.

<v Speaker 2>Nope, you're just gonna read your magazine insteagazine. It is

0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:05.040
<v Speaker 2>a nice man.

0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:07.000
<v Speaker 5>I did not get in my oats, Kyle, because the

0:18:07.040 --> 0:18:09.320
<v Speaker 5>show got moved back to ten o'clock last week when

0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:10.800
<v Speaker 5>it was at nine o'clock. I was here in time

0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:12.920
<v Speaker 5>to get some oats ready to roll. I was ready

0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:15.120
<v Speaker 5>to roll with the road oats at the best show

0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:17.800
<v Speaker 5>you've ever had. Probably not, but I mean it's okay.

0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:21.119
<v Speaker 5>I love my oats, but I haven't had any What

0:18:21.119 --> 0:18:22.960
<v Speaker 5>do you feel like the best show you've ever had? Was?

0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:24.360
<v Speaker 2>Was that the Hot Sauce episode?

0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:30.080
<v Speaker 5>It's gotta be the White Draws. Hot Sauce was a

0:18:30.119 --> 0:18:30.840
<v Speaker 5>good one, though.

0:18:30.720 --> 0:18:32.640
<v Speaker 4>The Hot Sauce that was Nick, That was your best,

0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:34.720
<v Speaker 4>hands down.

0:18:35.880 --> 0:18:37.840
<v Speaker 8>So this is this is an interesting topic to me

0:18:38.160 --> 0:18:41.800
<v Speaker 8>because I'm definitely one of those people that I don't

0:18:42.440 --> 0:18:45.760
<v Speaker 8>like watching anything that I do over again. I hate

0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:48.879
<v Speaker 8>the way my voice sounds like I never feel like

0:18:49.320 --> 0:18:51.280
<v Speaker 8>anything is ever where I'm like, oh, yeah, this was

0:18:51.280 --> 0:18:51.800
<v Speaker 8>really good thing.

0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:53.160
<v Speaker 1>So do you guys feel that way?

0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:55.639
<v Speaker 8>Like you know, whether you're calling a game or you

0:18:55.680 --> 0:18:57.399
<v Speaker 8>know when you're doing I don't know.

0:18:57.400 --> 0:18:58.880
<v Speaker 1>Heck, even when you played in games, did.

0:18:58.760 --> 0:19:00.800
<v Speaker 5>You ever feel like cringe a lot of times?

0:19:00.840 --> 0:19:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? That's the way I feel about.

0:19:02.040 --> 0:19:04.160
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, like the way you acted when when we brought

0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:06.440
<v Speaker 8>that the wrestling video, which I didn't think it was bad,

0:19:06.440 --> 0:19:07.600
<v Speaker 8>but you were like you didn't want to see it.

0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:09.080
<v Speaker 5>Bring it up again?

0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:13.399
<v Speaker 7>Yes, I think I was.

0:19:14.359 --> 0:19:15.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, get that one.

0:19:15.320 --> 0:19:17.680
<v Speaker 6>I think to be more critical on you know what

0:19:17.720 --> 0:19:19.480
<v Speaker 6>I what I put forth, I want to be able

0:19:19.520 --> 0:19:22.240
<v Speaker 6>to have like a good understanding of it, because not

0:19:22.359 --> 0:19:25.119
<v Speaker 6>everyone hears your voice and thinks, oh, that's cringe.

0:19:25.359 --> 0:19:27.159
<v Speaker 7>It's only you that feels that way. So I just

0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:28.399
<v Speaker 7>took that out of my mind.

0:19:28.400 --> 0:19:30.760
<v Speaker 8>And there's like actors that say like they never watched,

0:19:30.880 --> 0:19:32.760
<v Speaker 8>never do movies, and that's why I could.

0:19:33.240 --> 0:19:35.879
<v Speaker 5>I don't like to, but I think it's necessary. And plus,

0:19:35.920 --> 0:19:37.840
<v Speaker 5>you know, like our coach, our coach that we have

0:19:38.000 --> 0:19:40.439
<v Speaker 5>is he's pretty anal when it comes to you know,

0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:43.720
<v Speaker 5>be on top of you, on top of your feedback.

0:19:43.840 --> 0:19:46.600
<v Speaker 5>So I have to watch that with with his perspective,

0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:48.800
<v Speaker 5>you know. So I try to take that and take

0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:50.800
<v Speaker 5>the wisdom from people who have been there, done that,

0:19:51.000 --> 0:19:54.440
<v Speaker 5>coach greats and look at it from their lens, because

0:19:54.440 --> 0:19:56.480
<v Speaker 5>if you don't, then you feel like you that you

0:19:56.560 --> 0:19:56.960
<v Speaker 5>know better.

0:19:57.119 --> 0:19:59.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I just want to know what Jerry Madelone would

0:19:59.800 --> 0:20:01.480
<v Speaker 4>say about that sentence.

0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:07.120
<v Speaker 2>The thing about going back and watching it is the.

0:20:09.320 --> 0:20:11.600
<v Speaker 4>I had a mentor very early on tell me, like,

0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:14.480
<v Speaker 4>you have to get over that because like for me specifically,

0:20:14.960 --> 0:20:17.520
<v Speaker 4>I call games in every sport and I kind of

0:20:17.600 --> 0:20:19.640
<v Speaker 4>go and do that a lot. I want to get

0:20:19.680 --> 0:20:21.880
<v Speaker 4>better at it. It's like watching film. This is kind

0:20:21.880 --> 0:20:24.560
<v Speaker 4>of the easy way to look at it. It may

0:20:24.560 --> 0:20:26.320
<v Speaker 4>not be good film and you may have to kind

0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:26.640
<v Speaker 4>of get.

0:20:26.560 --> 0:20:29.600
<v Speaker 2>Over it a little bit and put your pride aside.

0:20:29.600 --> 0:20:32.639
<v Speaker 4>But I've gotten into a rhythm where once or twice

0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:34.399
<v Speaker 4>a month I'll go back and watch a game and

0:20:34.440 --> 0:20:38.080
<v Speaker 4>it's entirely or watch a pregame or postgame show talking

0:20:38.119 --> 0:20:42.200
<v Speaker 4>Cowboys draft show in its entirety, and really like dissect

0:20:42.200 --> 0:20:44.800
<v Speaker 4>it and go into it. It's like you said, it's

0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:47.080
<v Speaker 4>tough at first to kind of get into it and

0:20:47.119 --> 0:20:48.760
<v Speaker 4>listen to your own voice. But at some point it

0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:51.800
<v Speaker 4>turns around. At some point it does, and now I

0:20:51.920 --> 0:20:53.040
<v Speaker 4>just listen to Isaiah's boys.

0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:54.399
<v Speaker 2>That's the best part about it.

0:20:55.080 --> 0:20:58.360
<v Speaker 4>All right, Let's talk about the elephant in the room, gentlemen.

0:20:58.760 --> 0:21:00.480
<v Speaker 4>There's not an elephant actually in the room, I.

0:21:00.480 --> 0:21:01.600
<v Speaker 2>Say, sorry.

0:21:01.440 --> 0:21:05.080
<v Speaker 4>The fact that there has been zero movement from the

0:21:05.160 --> 0:21:08.239
<v Speaker 4>Dallas Cowboys this offseason. The one outside signing has been

0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:11.960
<v Speaker 4>Eric Hendricks. You've seen all these guys leave at different

0:21:12.160 --> 0:21:14.320
<v Speaker 4>points throughout the off season, like a Tyron Smith and

0:21:14.400 --> 0:21:16.600
<v Speaker 4>Doornce Armstrong's so on and so forth.

0:21:16.600 --> 0:21:18.480
<v Speaker 2>I can name all of them, but I'm got his valor.

0:21:19.040 --> 0:21:23.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So why, I mean, that's kind of the number

0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:27.480
<v Speaker 4>one concern right now of teams right now, or of

0:21:27.520 --> 0:21:29.960
<v Speaker 4>fans I should say right now about this Dallas Cowboys team.

0:21:30.040 --> 0:21:33.959
<v Speaker 7>Why it's a concern stemming I'll dive into it.

0:21:34.119 --> 0:21:40.280
<v Speaker 6>The concern stemming from from upstairs is that if signing

0:21:40.320 --> 0:21:42.879
<v Speaker 6>anybody this go around, whether it be in free agency

0:21:43.080 --> 0:21:46.320
<v Speaker 6>or you know, extending anybody out of this point or

0:21:46.320 --> 0:21:50.840
<v Speaker 6>restructuring anything, you're pushing money along in those voidable years,

0:21:50.880 --> 0:21:53.159
<v Speaker 6>and the cash that you would spend now, you're pushing

0:21:53.240 --> 0:21:56.240
<v Speaker 6>those that money into avoidable years where they feel like

0:21:56.280 --> 0:21:59.560
<v Speaker 6>they're going to have restricting cap situations in twenty twenty five,

0:21:59.600 --> 0:22:02.160
<v Speaker 6>twenty two, six, et cetera. Not as much a twenty six.

0:22:02.200 --> 0:22:04.320
<v Speaker 6>It's more so a twenty five problem. That is the

0:22:04.400 --> 0:22:09.520
<v Speaker 6>understanding from upstairs. I'm trying to communicate that clearly because

0:22:09.560 --> 0:22:13.880
<v Speaker 6>there is a clear disconnect between Twitter and upstairs as

0:22:13.880 --> 0:22:16.320
<v Speaker 6>far as what the cap situation exactly looks like.

0:22:16.520 --> 0:22:18.280
<v Speaker 7>I am the messenger, who not kill the messenger.

0:22:18.320 --> 0:22:22.119
<v Speaker 4>Well, that's the thing we're not selling hope by telling

0:22:22.240 --> 0:22:24.720
<v Speaker 4>exact facts. That's not what we're trying to do here.

0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:28.400
<v Speaker 4>It's unfortunate they haven't signed players yet, they haven't retained

0:22:28.440 --> 0:22:31.840
<v Speaker 4>some good talent like an armstrong I mean a be honist.

0:22:31.840 --> 0:22:33.440
<v Speaker 4>You don't have a starting center right now, so I'll

0:22:33.480 --> 0:22:35.920
<v Speaker 4>throw him in the mix. Left tackle Tyron Smith.

0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:37.240
<v Speaker 2>I think you can.

0:22:37.080 --> 0:22:39.480
<v Speaker 4>Fix that by the draft, yeah, and you can fix

0:22:39.520 --> 0:22:42.320
<v Speaker 4>that by replacing free agents at some point.

0:22:42.400 --> 0:22:43.880
<v Speaker 2>But when you don't have money to spend, you don't

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:44.560
<v Speaker 2>have money to spend.

0:22:44.600 --> 0:22:47.160
<v Speaker 6>And I think this term meteoric whenever Jonathan Hankins left

0:22:47.160 --> 0:22:50.320
<v Speaker 6>and his contract was basically nothing, and the fans.

0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:51.800
<v Speaker 7>Were like, Okay, we can't afford that.

0:22:52.280 --> 0:22:56.480
<v Speaker 6>So it's I think that's where most of this frustration

0:22:56.560 --> 0:22:58.560
<v Speaker 6>had stemmed around. I don't think Hankins was a situation

0:22:58.560 --> 0:22:59.879
<v Speaker 6>where they couldn't afford him, though. I think it was

0:22:59.920 --> 0:23:01.639
<v Speaker 6>a situation where he wanted to go play for dirty

0:23:01.680 --> 0:23:03.680
<v Speaker 6>and get back and that's on the West Coast. I

0:23:04.320 --> 0:23:06.400
<v Speaker 6>think that's that's what I believe as far as Hankins goes.

0:23:06.440 --> 0:23:08.320
<v Speaker 6>But I haven't talked to the man, so I don't

0:23:08.320 --> 0:23:10.439
<v Speaker 6>know that one hundred percent. But I don't think it

0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:12.480
<v Speaker 6>was one hundred percent financial. But I mean, you look

0:23:12.480 --> 0:23:14.439
<v Speaker 6>at the other situations and the guys that they have

0:23:14.520 --> 0:23:17.240
<v Speaker 6>resigned and the dollar amounts that they've resigned them for

0:23:17.600 --> 0:23:20.040
<v Speaker 6>the outside free agents that have gone on and signed

0:23:20.040 --> 0:23:23.280
<v Speaker 6>for you know, low dollar amounts as well. I think

0:23:23.320 --> 0:23:25.320
<v Speaker 6>you can fully expect that this team is just looking

0:23:25.359 --> 0:23:27.920
<v Speaker 6>forward to the draft and trying to address needs in

0:23:27.960 --> 0:23:30.160
<v Speaker 6>the draft. And I think post June one, you'll probably

0:23:30.200 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 6>see that free agent you know, swing that you see

0:23:32.280 --> 0:23:34.080
<v Speaker 6>in the summer. I think they'll be a little bit

0:23:34.119 --> 0:23:35.880
<v Speaker 6>more active in that, just trying to fill up the team.

0:23:35.920 --> 0:23:38.199
<v Speaker 6>But if you're looking for a big name like you know,

0:23:38.480 --> 0:23:40.840
<v Speaker 6>Derrick Henry going into the off season or anything like that,

0:23:40.880 --> 0:23:43.160
<v Speaker 6>I don't really know what you were expecting to be honest,

0:23:43.440 --> 0:23:46.160
<v Speaker 6>because if signing a guy like that, let's just let's

0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:47.960
<v Speaker 6>take money out of the equation. It's a thirty year

0:23:47.960 --> 0:23:50.520
<v Speaker 6>old coming into a running back room where they are

0:23:50.560 --> 0:23:54.000
<v Speaker 6>trying to improve and have a little bit more youth

0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:56.320
<v Speaker 6>in that room as well. They're going to go draft

0:23:56.359 --> 0:23:58.080
<v Speaker 6>a guy and they're expecting that guy to be able

0:23:58.080 --> 0:23:59.280
<v Speaker 6>to step up and beat RB one.

0:23:59.440 --> 0:24:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, look at that running back room.

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:03.520
<v Speaker 6>I don't think anyone would be confident in anybody in

0:24:03.560 --> 0:24:05.560
<v Speaker 6>that room being RB one right now and being able

0:24:05.640 --> 0:24:07.199
<v Speaker 6>to carry on that load. So you go get a

0:24:07.240 --> 0:24:09.120
<v Speaker 6>Jonathan Brooks, you go get a Trey Benson, et cetera,

0:24:09.160 --> 0:24:11.520
<v Speaker 6>et cetera. That's what they need in that room. That's

0:24:11.520 --> 0:24:13.359
<v Speaker 6>just one example, but I think that can kind of

0:24:13.359 --> 0:24:14.960
<v Speaker 6>go on both sides of the ball well.

0:24:15.000 --> 0:24:17.800
<v Speaker 4>And I think you bring up a great point of

0:24:18.680 --> 0:24:22.560
<v Speaker 4>there's still time to address needs. It just hasn't happened yet,

0:24:22.600 --> 0:24:24.720
<v Speaker 4>because you have to feel the team, I mean, pure

0:24:24.760 --> 0:24:27.000
<v Speaker 4>and simple. You've got to you've got to put together

0:24:27.040 --> 0:24:28.400
<v Speaker 4>your draft picks, which you don't.

0:24:28.200 --> 0:24:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Have a boatload of.

0:24:30.000 --> 0:24:32.720
<v Speaker 4>You've got a normal amount with seven, but you don't

0:24:32.840 --> 0:24:35.399
<v Speaker 4>you don't have the money to go out there and

0:24:35.440 --> 0:24:37.440
<v Speaker 4>sign all these guys that you would want to sign

0:24:37.560 --> 0:24:41.240
<v Speaker 4>at some point. And I've heard this analogy from throughout

0:24:41.240 --> 0:24:43.200
<v Speaker 4>the building, but it's like spending on a credit card,

0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:46.440
<v Speaker 4>and that credit card at some point, whenever you kick

0:24:46.480 --> 0:24:51.359
<v Speaker 4>contracts down the road, whether it be Dak Zach Martin, Tyr,

0:24:51.520 --> 0:24:54.960
<v Speaker 4>Tyron Smith, Terrence Steele, you're pushing this money further and

0:24:55.000 --> 0:24:57.000
<v Speaker 4>further away, but at some point it will come back

0:24:57.000 --> 0:24:59.719
<v Speaker 4>and hit the cap. And I think a big misconception

0:24:59.760 --> 0:25:03.080
<v Speaker 4>a lot on the way is that cash doesn't count

0:25:03.080 --> 0:25:03.720
<v Speaker 4>toward the cap.

0:25:04.200 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 2>That's wrong.

0:25:05.240 --> 0:25:07.840
<v Speaker 4>At some point, every single dollar that's given as a

0:25:07.880 --> 0:25:11.680
<v Speaker 4>cash offer or a signing bonus or whatever that ends

0:25:11.760 --> 0:25:14.280
<v Speaker 4>up being. That money will at some point hit the cap.

0:25:14.480 --> 0:25:16.680
<v Speaker 4>It's just whether of win it will hit the cap.

0:25:17.160 --> 0:25:20.080
<v Speaker 4>And so whenever you're saying, oh, that money's all gone,

0:25:20.160 --> 0:25:22.080
<v Speaker 4>that forty million that you gave the deck as a

0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:24.680
<v Speaker 4>signing bonus, that's just not going to ever hit. It's

0:25:24.720 --> 0:25:27.000
<v Speaker 4>going to hit. And that's part of it is it's

0:25:27.000 --> 0:25:28.879
<v Speaker 4>all kind of hitting at this point in time. So

0:25:28.920 --> 0:25:31.080
<v Speaker 4>you've spent the credit card, you've swiped it. You fielded

0:25:31.160 --> 0:25:33.320
<v Speaker 4>a team over the last couple of years. You struck

0:25:33.320 --> 0:25:35.439
<v Speaker 4>out in the playoffs, which is unfortunate and fortunate, but

0:25:35.480 --> 0:25:37.520
<v Speaker 4>you won twelve games in each of the last three years.

0:25:37.760 --> 0:25:39.000
<v Speaker 4>You got to find a way to fill the team

0:25:39.000 --> 0:25:41.200
<v Speaker 4>in twenty twenty four then continue to push on.

0:25:41.160 --> 0:25:44.000
<v Speaker 2>That window down the line. That's what they're trying to

0:25:44.040 --> 0:25:44.480
<v Speaker 2>do right now.

0:25:44.520 --> 0:25:47.320
<v Speaker 5>They're doing hard stuff right now, and this is where

0:25:47.359 --> 0:25:49.320
<v Speaker 5>this organization is at. You know, you guys have laid

0:25:49.320 --> 0:25:50.879
<v Speaker 5>out some great examples. You just laid it out and

0:25:50.880 --> 0:25:52.920
<v Speaker 5>make in terms of where these guys are at situationally.

0:25:53.280 --> 0:25:57.520
<v Speaker 5>But the reality is they have to watch their friends

0:25:57.600 --> 0:25:59.920
<v Speaker 5>go go on vacations right now, and they don't have

0:26:00.080 --> 0:26:02.200
<v Speaker 5>bread to do it. And that's that's where I don't

0:26:02.200 --> 0:26:03.720
<v Speaker 5>know if everybody's ever been in that position before.

0:26:04.160 --> 0:26:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Right now, Yeah, you spent you spent your bread.

0:26:06.200 --> 0:26:07.560
<v Speaker 5>You know what I'm saying. Like you might have you

0:26:07.640 --> 0:26:09.280
<v Speaker 5>might have got a nice car, you might have got

0:26:09.280 --> 0:26:11.120
<v Speaker 5>you know, a nice house or whatever it might be. Yeah,

0:26:11.160 --> 0:26:13.720
<v Speaker 5>three kids popped out of nowhere. Yeah. But then but then,

0:26:13.800 --> 0:26:15.720
<v Speaker 5>like all your friends are like, hey, we're about to go,

0:26:15.800 --> 0:26:17.960
<v Speaker 5>We're about to go to Europe. You want to come,

0:26:18.040 --> 0:26:21.000
<v Speaker 5>You're like, yeah, the way my bank accounts set up

0:26:21.040 --> 0:26:22.320
<v Speaker 5>right now, I just can't do that. So you got

0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:23.679
<v Speaker 5>to sit back and you got to watch them go

0:26:23.840 --> 0:26:26.240
<v Speaker 5>have fun, and you just got to trust and believe

0:26:26.280 --> 0:26:29.560
<v Speaker 5>in your process and say, Okay, next year, this time around,

0:26:29.560 --> 0:26:30.879
<v Speaker 5>I'll be in a better position to be able to

0:26:30.920 --> 0:26:31.960
<v Speaker 5>go do the things that I want to do.

0:26:32.040 --> 0:26:34.159
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna go join Perry Church on the skiing and

0:26:35.240 --> 0:26:36.359
<v Speaker 4>gonna make it happen, you know.

0:26:36.359 --> 0:26:36.760
<v Speaker 5>What I'm saying.

0:26:36.760 --> 0:26:38.159
<v Speaker 2>So, like that's where they're at.

0:26:38.160 --> 0:26:40.960
<v Speaker 5>They're making grown up decisions right now, and and it sucks,

0:26:41.040 --> 0:26:43.040
<v Speaker 5>and nobody likes not being able to do what you

0:26:43.119 --> 0:26:44.600
<v Speaker 5>want to do. But at some point in time. You

0:26:44.640 --> 0:26:45.919
<v Speaker 5>have to be an adult about it. You have to

0:26:45.920 --> 0:26:47.919
<v Speaker 5>be responsible, and you have to do the things that

0:26:47.960 --> 0:26:50.639
<v Speaker 5>are absolutely necessary to put you in a position in

0:26:50.680 --> 0:26:53.400
<v Speaker 5>the future. Otherwise you keep digging a bigger hole.

0:26:53.840 --> 0:26:58.280
<v Speaker 8>And so from the fans standpoint, I understand their frustration

0:26:58.440 --> 0:27:02.480
<v Speaker 8>because of one Jerry repeatedly saying the all in thing,

0:27:02.640 --> 0:27:06.040
<v Speaker 8>which made everything worse to begin with. The Other part

0:27:06.119 --> 0:27:08.440
<v Speaker 8>is that you see the salary cap go up thirty million,

0:27:08.480 --> 0:27:10.840
<v Speaker 8>and you just assume, well, yeah, business is boom in

0:27:10.840 --> 0:27:13.560
<v Speaker 8>the NFL. It's just going to keep going up like that.

0:27:13.880 --> 0:27:15.440
<v Speaker 8>I don't get the sense of the cowboys feel like

0:27:15.480 --> 0:27:17.560
<v Speaker 8>that's going to continue to happen. So they are projecting

0:27:17.600 --> 0:27:20.480
<v Speaker 8>out like looking into the future, as you mentioned, you know,

0:27:20.520 --> 0:27:21.399
<v Speaker 8>so you've got to factor that in.

0:27:21.560 --> 0:27:24.200
<v Speaker 4>The number that we were told was ten million over

0:27:24.200 --> 0:27:26.480
<v Speaker 4>the next three years is what it would rise from

0:27:26.480 --> 0:27:29.240
<v Speaker 4>what it is right now. So it took us step

0:27:29.320 --> 0:27:31.520
<v Speaker 4>up and then it's going to even out. It'll still

0:27:31.560 --> 0:27:34.280
<v Speaker 4>go up because it's the NFL. But if you look

0:27:34.320 --> 0:27:36.240
<v Speaker 4>at sky Rocket that it was his passed off.

0:27:36.280 --> 0:27:40.879
<v Speaker 6>If you look at pre pandemic era of salary cap jump,

0:27:40.960 --> 0:27:43.480
<v Speaker 6>it's typically about seven percent, and that would equate to

0:27:43.560 --> 0:27:44.639
<v Speaker 6>about sixteen million.

0:27:44.720 --> 0:27:45.320
<v Speaker 2>So there you go.

0:27:45.800 --> 0:27:48.000
<v Speaker 8>So that's part of it. And then the other thing

0:27:48.119 --> 0:27:52.960
<v Speaker 8>is is that it's it's told to us that this

0:27:53.119 --> 0:27:55.399
<v Speaker 8>is being done so that they can be sure that

0:27:55.440 --> 0:27:58.439
<v Speaker 8>they're able to re sign dak CD and Micah and

0:27:58.440 --> 0:27:59.840
<v Speaker 8>then none of that stuff's happening.

0:28:00.440 --> 0:28:01.360
<v Speaker 1>But then there's even this.

0:28:01.960 --> 0:28:04.520
<v Speaker 8>Even if it does happen or it was happening right

0:28:04.560 --> 0:28:07.080
<v Speaker 8>now and those guys are getting resigned, there's if you're

0:28:07.080 --> 0:28:10.320
<v Speaker 8>a fan, there's a party that is looking at it like, well, yeah,

0:28:10.520 --> 0:28:13.760
<v Speaker 8>we already have those we want more stuff. That stuff

0:28:13.800 --> 0:28:16.040
<v Speaker 8>wasn't good enough for us to even beat the packers.

0:28:16.080 --> 0:28:18.720
<v Speaker 8>You know, if those three guys that you're paying are

0:28:20.560 --> 0:28:24.040
<v Speaker 8>Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Chris Jones, You're just like, yeah, no, no,

0:28:24.080 --> 0:28:25.920
<v Speaker 8>I understand. We're not gonna be able to keep you know,

0:28:26.680 --> 0:28:28.520
<v Speaker 8>all of our DB's and we're gonna have to make

0:28:28.560 --> 0:28:30.040
<v Speaker 8>some moves and stuff like that. We're gonna lose the

0:28:30.080 --> 0:28:32.120
<v Speaker 8>Tyreek Hill, but then we're gonna go on and we're

0:28:32.119 --> 0:28:34.560
<v Speaker 8>gonna keep playing in super Bowls. And so you're not

0:28:34.640 --> 0:28:36.960
<v Speaker 8>getting any closer to Super Bowls and you're not getting

0:28:37.000 --> 0:28:39.240
<v Speaker 8>any additional players. So my big thing on this is

0:28:39.280 --> 0:28:41.280
<v Speaker 8>it's like, it's got to be tough for a fan

0:28:41.360 --> 0:28:44.080
<v Speaker 8>because on paper, your team is not gonna be better

0:28:44.120 --> 0:28:46.560
<v Speaker 8>next year than was this previous year, and this previous

0:28:46.640 --> 0:28:48.600
<v Speaker 8>year it wasn't good enough to get over the hump either,

0:28:48.920 --> 0:28:50.440
<v Speaker 8>And so it's like, well, if you're not adding any

0:28:50.480 --> 0:28:54.479
<v Speaker 8>new pieces, then what am I supposed to hope for?

0:28:54.520 --> 0:28:57.000
<v Speaker 8>Where am I supposed to get excited about this team

0:28:57.120 --> 0:29:00.280
<v Speaker 8>going in the next season? And that's why I kind

0:29:00.320 --> 0:29:02.360
<v Speaker 8>of compare it to I wrote today about what Mike

0:29:02.440 --> 0:29:04.680
<v Speaker 8>McCarthy said last week. I compare it to twenty fourteen

0:29:04.680 --> 0:29:07.080
<v Speaker 8>and twenty sixteen. Those were really good years for the Cowboys,

0:29:07.320 --> 0:29:09.640
<v Speaker 8>but those are years going into them where the expectations

0:29:09.680 --> 0:29:11.720
<v Speaker 8>have been had been lowered, you know. I mean Jerry

0:29:11.760 --> 0:29:15.280
<v Speaker 8>said in that twenty fourteen in training camp that it

0:29:15.320 --> 0:29:17.640
<v Speaker 8>was gonna be an uphill battle. And that's a wild

0:29:17.680 --> 0:29:19.960
<v Speaker 8>coming from a Jerry Jones who never talks like that

0:29:20.000 --> 0:29:20.600
<v Speaker 8>at training camp.

0:29:20.640 --> 0:29:21.680
<v Speaker 1>It's usually very positive.

0:29:21.760 --> 0:29:23.480
<v Speaker 8>Whatever, and what do they do in twenty fourteen The

0:29:23.560 --> 0:29:26.240
<v Speaker 8>end up having a great season, and then in twenty sixteen,

0:29:26.280 --> 0:29:29.000
<v Speaker 8>you know, they're coming off of Romo's hurt in twenty fifteen,

0:29:29.280 --> 0:29:31.280
<v Speaker 8>they only win four games, So you're sitting there like,

0:29:31.480 --> 0:29:33.320
<v Speaker 8>all right, well this will be the year because and

0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:35.920
<v Speaker 8>then Romo goes down in the preseason and you're just like, oh,

0:29:35.960 --> 0:29:38.160
<v Speaker 8>they're gonna They're gonna rely in this fourth round pick.

0:29:38.320 --> 0:29:39.920
<v Speaker 8>And they end up winning thirteen games to get the

0:29:39.960 --> 0:29:43.400
<v Speaker 8>one seed. And so when expectations have been lowered, the

0:29:43.440 --> 0:29:45.440
<v Speaker 8>Cowboys have respound. Now they still haven't made a deep

0:29:45.440 --> 0:29:48.280
<v Speaker 8>playoff run, and that's ultimately what this crew is going

0:29:48.320 --> 0:29:48.960
<v Speaker 8>to be decided on.

0:29:49.080 --> 0:29:50.840
<v Speaker 1>But I get both sides of it.

0:29:51.440 --> 0:29:52.960
<v Speaker 8>The only issue is, though, is like when you talk

0:29:53.000 --> 0:29:56.560
<v Speaker 8>about like taking it to Twitter, it just gets like

0:29:56.640 --> 0:29:59.400
<v Speaker 8>kind of dark and just the way I don't know

0:29:59.440 --> 0:30:01.840
<v Speaker 8>the back and worth with people, it just gets so

0:30:01.960 --> 0:30:04.720
<v Speaker 8>negative that it, like, for example, for myself, like I

0:30:04.760 --> 0:30:08.600
<v Speaker 8>don't even like getting involved with it, just because there's

0:30:08.680 --> 0:30:11.600
<v Speaker 8>just you can have ten good interactions and then three

0:30:11.640 --> 0:30:13.640
<v Speaker 8>just super negative ones to where you're just like, I'm

0:30:13.680 --> 0:30:15.600
<v Speaker 8>not doing this anymore, Like I'm not getting paid any

0:30:15.600 --> 0:30:17.400
<v Speaker 8>extra to do this thing, Like why am I taking

0:30:17.400 --> 0:30:19.000
<v Speaker 8>my time out of the day so people are going

0:30:19.080 --> 0:30:20.400
<v Speaker 8>to take shots at me and stuff like that. So

0:30:20.440 --> 0:30:22.960
<v Speaker 8>I totally I'm on the side of sometimes you just

0:30:22.960 --> 0:30:24.440
<v Speaker 8>got to take a step back from doing all that

0:30:24.480 --> 0:30:24.960
<v Speaker 8>stuff too.

0:30:25.040 --> 0:30:27.760
<v Speaker 4>So, like you said, there's two sides to it. There's

0:30:27.800 --> 0:30:29.640
<v Speaker 4>the side of it that's the frustrated fan.

0:30:29.520 --> 0:30:31.160
<v Speaker 2>And I get it. I grew up a Cowboys fan.

0:30:31.240 --> 0:30:32.920
<v Speaker 2>I want to see this team win just as much

0:30:32.960 --> 0:30:33.560
<v Speaker 2>as anybody.

0:30:34.200 --> 0:30:37.840
<v Speaker 4>On the other side, there's the business element of the

0:30:37.960 --> 0:30:40.840
<v Speaker 4>NFL and the salary cap. Jerry Jones has said it

0:30:40.920 --> 0:30:42.680
<v Speaker 4>before it and I believe him in this matter because

0:30:42.680 --> 0:30:44.240
<v Speaker 4>I see what he does around the building.

0:30:44.520 --> 0:30:45.520
<v Speaker 2>If he didn't have a.

0:30:45.520 --> 0:30:48.240
<v Speaker 4>Salary cap, he would pay for a team that would

0:30:48.320 --> 0:30:50.360
<v Speaker 4>win the Super Bowl every year. It would he would

0:30:50.640 --> 0:30:53.400
<v Speaker 4>New York Yankees this thing more than anybody because the.

0:30:53.360 --> 0:30:54.680
<v Speaker 2>Yankees don't have a salary cap.

0:30:54.840 --> 0:30:56.880
<v Speaker 4>He would be the Dallas Cowboys without a salary cap

0:30:56.880 --> 0:30:58.760
<v Speaker 4>as well. I believe that he wants to win as

0:30:58.760 --> 0:30:59.600
<v Speaker 4>bad as anybody.

0:31:00.160 --> 0:31:02.080
<v Speaker 8>The longer I cover the team, I doubt that a

0:31:02.160 --> 0:31:03.880
<v Speaker 8>little bit more each year that goes by.

0:31:03.960 --> 0:31:07.720
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I don't know why why do you doubt it?

0:31:07.800 --> 0:31:09.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I don't know what. I don't know if

0:31:09.760 --> 0:31:10.400
<v Speaker 2>you're going to get in.

0:31:10.800 --> 0:31:12.440
<v Speaker 1>But no, no, it's fine.

0:31:12.560 --> 0:31:16.760
<v Speaker 8>I just think that there's certain areas where uh coaching

0:31:16.800 --> 0:31:20.959
<v Speaker 8>staff for example, there's no salary cap on coaching staff, no, Like,

0:31:21.160 --> 0:31:23.080
<v Speaker 8>so how come they don't just go out and you're

0:31:23.080 --> 0:31:24.520
<v Speaker 8>just always like, oh yeah, well the cow would just

0:31:24.520 --> 0:31:26.720
<v Speaker 8>spend whatever and they just get like, you know, they

0:31:26.760 --> 0:31:29.560
<v Speaker 8>literally have like the the da Alls Cowboys, how much

0:31:29.600 --> 0:31:31.840
<v Speaker 8>they're worth. They literally every time you like every time

0:31:31.880 --> 0:31:33.960
<v Speaker 8>you look at their staff, best wide receiver coach, best

0:31:34.040 --> 0:31:35.920
<v Speaker 8>running back coach, best I mean, you see it in college.

0:31:35.960 --> 0:31:37.360
<v Speaker 8>You see it all the time in college, the big

0:31:37.400 --> 0:31:39.480
<v Speaker 8>money teams, the Alabamas and stuff like that.

0:31:39.520 --> 0:31:40.920
<v Speaker 1>The Georgia's they're not, they're not.

0:31:41.560 --> 0:31:43.400
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, they bring up Now their staffs are are a

0:31:43.400 --> 0:31:45.160
<v Speaker 8>little bit different because there's a lot of gas and

0:31:45.200 --> 0:31:47.320
<v Speaker 8>things like that. But like they're just like little things

0:31:47.360 --> 0:31:48.840
<v Speaker 8>like that. The longer I cover the team and like,

0:31:49.440 --> 0:31:52.240
<v Speaker 8>is it really exhausting every single last dollar?

0:31:52.360 --> 0:31:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Maybe, well who would you go get in that element?

0:31:54.960 --> 0:31:56.760
<v Speaker 4>I mean you went and got Mike McCarthy, who at

0:31:56.800 --> 0:31:59.280
<v Speaker 4>the time, I mean we're five years down the road now.

0:31:59.320 --> 0:32:00.960
<v Speaker 4>At the time, he was one of the few Super

0:32:01.000 --> 0:32:03.880
<v Speaker 4>Bowl active head coaches in the NFL that had been

0:32:03.920 --> 0:32:05.680
<v Speaker 4>to the mountaintop and done it. I know, it's been

0:32:05.680 --> 0:32:09.120
<v Speaker 4>a long time, trust me, but he was one of

0:32:09.160 --> 0:32:10.560
<v Speaker 4>them that had done it. Other than that, what are

0:32:10.600 --> 0:32:12.800
<v Speaker 4>you going to get. You're going to get John Harball,

0:32:12.800 --> 0:32:14.760
<v Speaker 4>You're going to get Mike Tomlin, You're going to get

0:32:14.760 --> 0:32:17.720
<v Speaker 4>Bill Belichick. Even right now, I don't think Bill Belichick

0:32:17.760 --> 0:32:19.640
<v Speaker 4>is a better higher than what Mike McCarthy has done.

0:32:19.840 --> 0:32:22.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean there's there's elements to it.

0:32:22.400 --> 0:32:24.800
<v Speaker 4>I agree with you, and you could spend on maybe

0:32:24.800 --> 0:32:27.479
<v Speaker 4>position coaches, but I don't think we've had a problem

0:32:27.520 --> 0:32:29.400
<v Speaker 4>with any of the position coaches along the way, And

0:32:29.440 --> 0:32:31.960
<v Speaker 4>if we have, we've I mean it's been a quick thing.

0:32:32.400 --> 0:32:32.920
<v Speaker 5>I just.

0:32:34.840 --> 0:32:38.000
<v Speaker 8>Because even that individual like the Dallas Cowboys coaching staff

0:32:38.040 --> 0:32:40.080
<v Speaker 8>is not like one of the highest paid coaching staffs,

0:32:40.080 --> 0:32:42.360
<v Speaker 8>and sure like you would assume with everything with the

0:32:42.440 --> 0:32:44.080
<v Speaker 8>Dallas but you would assume like, no, no, this is

0:32:44.080 --> 0:32:46.040
<v Speaker 8>every every single part of this best best beast. Like

0:32:46.240 --> 0:32:48.400
<v Speaker 8>you know, when those NFLPA surveys come out, every single

0:32:48.440 --> 0:32:50.120
<v Speaker 8>thing would be best best it's the Dallas Cowboys.

0:32:50.240 --> 0:32:51.160
<v Speaker 1>You have every single thing.

0:32:51.240 --> 0:32:52.680
<v Speaker 2>So it's a good point.

0:32:52.760 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know there is. I mean, there's kind of

0:32:54.640 --> 0:32:55.320
<v Speaker 1>team I believe me.

0:32:55.440 --> 0:32:56.560
<v Speaker 8>There was a lot of times where I used to

0:32:56.640 --> 0:32:59.200
<v Speaker 8>argue with people, other reporters and things like that, saying

0:32:59.240 --> 0:33:01.959
<v Speaker 8>that like, oh, Jerry doesn't care about winning. Whatever hell

0:33:02.000 --> 0:33:03.440
<v Speaker 8>he cares about is the money. And I'm like, well,

0:33:03.480 --> 0:33:06.200
<v Speaker 8>if you win big that nothing's going to bring in

0:33:06.240 --> 0:33:06.840
<v Speaker 8>more money than that.

0:33:06.960 --> 0:33:09.360
<v Speaker 1>So I don't doubt. I'm just saying that, I don't

0:33:09.400 --> 0:33:10.880
<v Speaker 1>doubt one hundred percent what you're saying.

0:33:10.880 --> 0:33:12.400
<v Speaker 8>I just saying every year I cover the team, the

0:33:12.440 --> 0:33:13.960
<v Speaker 8>more and more I'm just kind of gives that really

0:33:13.960 --> 0:33:14.320
<v Speaker 8>the case.

0:33:14.400 --> 0:33:17.800
<v Speaker 4>Maybe, Yeah, there's elements to it, there's levels to it,

0:33:17.880 --> 0:33:19.640
<v Speaker 4>and we've seen that along the way, and I think

0:33:20.840 --> 0:33:22.920
<v Speaker 4>this off season brings a little bit of all of

0:33:22.960 --> 0:33:25.560
<v Speaker 4>those elements out. So everybody has an opinion over a

0:33:25.600 --> 0:33:28.320
<v Speaker 4>certain area or aspect of this team, and it's going

0:33:28.360 --> 0:33:30.320
<v Speaker 4>to continue to grow as the off season goes along,

0:33:30.560 --> 0:33:32.640

<v Speaker 3>cheetah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought

0:35:15.960 --> 0:35:18.880
<v Speaker 3>online was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be

0:35:18.920 --> 0:35:21.440
<v Speaker 3>faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per ho.

0:35:22.200 --> 0:35:23.920

0:35:26.800 --> 0:35:28.960
<v Speaker 3>learned the best thing to do is stop running and

0:35:29.160 --> 0:35:31.680

<v Speaker 4>all right, would you ever return to a team.

<v Speaker 2>That let you walk in free agency?

0:36:12.880 --> 0:36:16.120
<v Speaker 4>Would you ever come back? If if the time and

0:36:16.200 --> 0:36:17.359
<v Speaker 4>the place was right?

0:36:17.480 --> 0:36:17.680
<v Speaker 5>Yep?

0:36:17.680 --> 0:36:18.480
<v Speaker 2>Would you ever do it?

0:36:18.520 --> 0:36:19.080
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely?

0:36:19.360 --> 0:36:22.600
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, especially if the options that I was looking at

0:36:22.640 --> 0:36:25.680
<v Speaker 6>whenever that team did leave me, leave me into the

0:36:26.200 --> 0:36:30.080
<v Speaker 6>free agency pool were abundant.

0:36:30.719 --> 0:36:34.080
<v Speaker 4>I'll say that, yeah, would you if you were the

0:36:34.160 --> 0:36:36.320
<v Speaker 4>Dallas Cowboys, welcome Ezekiel.

0:36:35.880 --> 0:36:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Elliott back into the fold? Yes, as a part of

0:36:37.960 --> 0:36:38.360
<v Speaker 2>this team.

0:36:38.480 --> 0:36:38.680
<v Speaker 5>Yes?

0:36:38.800 --> 0:36:39.040
<v Speaker 2>Why.

0:36:40.080 --> 0:36:43.680
<v Speaker 5>I think that he was a foundational pillar. I think

0:36:43.680 --> 0:36:47.160
<v Speaker 5>he was an exemplary player for this organization. I think

0:36:47.200 --> 0:36:53.080
<v Speaker 5>that way he provided this team can't be forgotten. I

0:36:53.080 --> 0:36:55.120
<v Speaker 5>think he's still productive. I think that's probably the more

0:36:55.120 --> 0:36:58.840
<v Speaker 5>important thing at this point in regards to where he

0:36:58.880 --> 0:37:03.760
<v Speaker 5>would be valuable to this team. Red zone blocking. Obviously,

0:37:03.760 --> 0:37:07.080
<v Speaker 5>you still need a piece that would coincide with him.

0:37:07.160 --> 0:37:09.480
<v Speaker 5>But I think if you're going to carry, you know,

0:37:09.640 --> 0:37:13.319
<v Speaker 5>three solid backs on this roster. I think that he

0:37:13.560 --> 0:37:17.200
<v Speaker 5>could still provide value for you, depending on the guy

0:37:17.200 --> 0:37:18.760
<v Speaker 5>that you that you end up getting in the draft.

0:37:19.760 --> 0:37:22.799
<v Speaker 4>Okay, so he would be the tandem back. I mean

0:37:22.800 --> 0:37:25.080
<v Speaker 4>that's kind of the expectation. He's not gonna be RB one.

0:37:25.480 --> 0:37:28.160
<v Speaker 4>He's gonna be paid like a backup running back, and

0:37:28.160 --> 0:37:31.520
<v Speaker 4>then he would be the guy to mentored this next generation.

0:37:31.760 --> 0:37:32.440
<v Speaker 2>Would you do it?

0:37:32.640 --> 0:37:33.480
<v Speaker 5>Would you bring him back?

0:37:35.200 --> 0:37:37.799
<v Speaker 6>You mentioned everything that he does well blocking, you have

0:37:37.840 --> 0:37:39.600
<v Speaker 6>that in the running back room, red zone presence, you

0:37:39.600 --> 0:37:40.840
<v Speaker 6>don't have that, but you can go get that in

0:37:40.840 --> 0:37:46.719
<v Speaker 6>the draft. I struggle with throwing Ezekiel Elliott into that

0:37:46.760 --> 0:37:49.040
<v Speaker 6>running back room when the defensive tackle position only has

0:37:49.080 --> 0:37:52.399
<v Speaker 6>one body in it right now, when the linebacker corp

0:37:52.440 --> 0:37:54.480
<v Speaker 6>could really use an extra body or two, the safety

0:37:54.560 --> 0:37:57.160
<v Speaker 6>unit arguably could use an extra body or two.

0:37:57.000 --> 0:37:59.000
<v Speaker 7>Corner as well. I mean, you can look all around

0:37:59.000 --> 0:37:59.279
<v Speaker 7>the team.

0:37:59.320 --> 0:38:00.600
<v Speaker 6>I just I feel like the can go draft a

0:38:00.640 --> 0:38:04.879
<v Speaker 6>running back, pair him with freeco Daoudle Duce, Vaughan Hunter

0:38:04.920 --> 0:38:07.799
<v Speaker 6>Lipkey in that room and just see what tandem works best.

0:38:07.840 --> 0:38:08.120
<v Speaker 7>I don't.

0:38:08.880 --> 0:38:11.200
<v Speaker 6>I think I think the running back room issues from

0:38:11.239 --> 0:38:14.000
<v Speaker 6>last year would not have been solved with Ezekiel Elliott.

0:38:14.120 --> 0:38:17.720
<v Speaker 7>So I don't. I don't think there's necessarily a huge value.

0:38:17.800 --> 0:38:19.320
<v Speaker 6>But if you get him on a veteran minimum he

0:38:19.360 --> 0:38:20.960
<v Speaker 6>wants to come in and he understands that he'd be

0:38:20.960 --> 0:38:22.680
<v Speaker 6>competing for a job, not that he would have one,

0:38:23.000 --> 0:38:24.759
<v Speaker 6>then sure, yeah, that's fine.

0:38:24.920 --> 0:38:27.359
<v Speaker 5>That's that's the mindset that I have. I'm not saying

0:38:27.400 --> 0:38:29.080
<v Speaker 5>just bring him in and hand him the job. But

0:38:29.560 --> 0:38:32.160
<v Speaker 5>I'm not. As much as I love duce Vaughan, I'm

0:38:32.160 --> 0:38:34.200
<v Speaker 5>not confident that he'll be on this roster by the

0:38:34.239 --> 0:38:35.120
<v Speaker 5>end of training camp.

0:38:35.239 --> 0:38:36.839
<v Speaker 2>That's just being he's gonna have to show out.

0:38:37.160 --> 0:38:40.239
<v Speaker 5>He's going to show out on offense and special teams yep.

0:38:40.400 --> 0:38:45.160
<v Speaker 5>And unfortunately his size has had an impact on his

0:38:45.239 --> 0:38:48.239
<v Speaker 5>ability to be effective in both of those regards to date.

0:38:49.320 --> 0:38:51.680
<v Speaker 5>Now his ability is just how effective he's been. So

0:38:52.080 --> 0:38:55.040
<v Speaker 5>that's a reality. That's been his reality his entire life,

0:38:55.080 --> 0:38:57.440
<v Speaker 5>and that's the situation he finds himself in. He has

0:38:57.480 --> 0:38:59.919
<v Speaker 5>to find a way. He always has up to date,

0:39:00.160 --> 0:39:02.040
<v Speaker 5>but he has he's gonna have to prove that. And

0:39:02.120 --> 0:39:05.239
<v Speaker 5>for those reasons, I don't see. I don't I don't

0:39:05.280 --> 0:39:08.279
<v Speaker 5>have a crystal ball, but I don't foresee him having

0:39:08.400 --> 0:39:11.400
<v Speaker 5>enough of an impact from what I've the evidence that

0:39:11.400 --> 0:39:13.600
<v Speaker 5>I have on film in the league for him to

0:39:13.600 --> 0:39:16.279
<v Speaker 5>be on this roster. So because of that, I think

0:39:16.320 --> 0:39:18.120
<v Speaker 5>that you bring in another Zeke, and whether you put

0:39:18.160 --> 0:39:20.080
<v Speaker 5>him at two or three, I don't freaking care. Right,

0:39:20.120 --> 0:39:22.080
<v Speaker 5>you bring him in. He has wisdom, right, and then

0:39:22.080 --> 0:39:24.480
<v Speaker 5>you still have to get your guy in the draft, I.

0:39:24.440 --> 0:39:27.040
<v Speaker 6>Will say, and I know it's not it's it's not

0:39:27.080 --> 0:39:30.279
<v Speaker 6>comparing apples and apples, But Darrence Rolls had a very

0:39:30.280 --> 0:39:32.640
<v Speaker 6>similar rookie season and it kind of took him a

0:39:32.719 --> 0:39:34.520
<v Speaker 6>year to be able to figure out how to use

0:39:34.560 --> 0:39:37.239
<v Speaker 6>his body and then he got hurt and he was

0:39:37.320 --> 0:39:38.680
<v Speaker 6>lucky he would not have a league in the first

0:39:38.680 --> 0:39:39.200
<v Speaker 6>two three years.

0:39:39.400 --> 0:39:40.680
<v Speaker 7>So there's still hope there.

0:39:40.680 --> 0:39:42.240
<v Speaker 6>I think produced fun and I think these new kickoff

0:39:42.280 --> 0:39:44.000
<v Speaker 6>roles kind of give him an opportunity to be able

0:39:44.040 --> 0:39:45.840
<v Speaker 6>to see what he can do with uh, you know,

0:39:45.920 --> 0:39:47.399
<v Speaker 6>the return game as well.

0:39:47.480 --> 0:39:49.759
<v Speaker 8>So yeah, I would be fine with with Zeke coming back,

0:39:49.800 --> 0:39:51.560
<v Speaker 8>depending on what they do in the draft. But if

0:39:51.560 --> 0:39:54.040
<v Speaker 8>you're using a second or third round pick, you know,

0:39:54.239 --> 0:39:55.839
<v Speaker 8>on a on a on a back.

0:39:55.960 --> 0:39:58.399
<v Speaker 1>I expect that to be your guy. That's the guy

0:39:58.400 --> 0:40:00.960
<v Speaker 1>that you need to be. Uh, give the majority of

0:40:01.000 --> 0:40:01.719
<v Speaker 1>the touches too.

0:40:02.239 --> 0:40:04.200
<v Speaker 8>But if they don't, because I thought that was gonna

0:40:04.200 --> 0:40:06.480
<v Speaker 8>happen last year, to be honest with you, when they

0:40:06.719 --> 0:40:08.520
<v Speaker 8>part of ways with Zeke, I thought they would draft

0:40:08.520 --> 0:40:10.799
<v Speaker 8>a running back second, third, fourth round.

0:40:11.000 --> 0:40:12.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and that didn't happen.

0:40:12.440 --> 0:40:15.400
<v Speaker 8>And so if let's say that happens again this year's draft,

0:40:15.440 --> 0:40:18.080
<v Speaker 8>where you know, in the second round, just the right

0:40:18.120 --> 0:40:20.720
<v Speaker 8>guy isn't there for the value and they go another route,

0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:22.759
<v Speaker 8>and then the third just isn't the right guy for

0:40:22.800 --> 0:40:23.120
<v Speaker 8>the value.

0:40:23.160 --> 0:40:23.359
<v Speaker 1>Whatever.

0:40:23.400 --> 0:40:25.200
<v Speaker 8>Next thing, you know, you're not getting a running back

0:40:25.200 --> 0:40:27.400
<v Speaker 8>to the fifth or sixth round. I could be interested

0:40:27.440 --> 0:40:29.239
<v Speaker 8>in the Zeke return that, but like right now, I

0:40:29.280 --> 0:40:31.279
<v Speaker 8>don't think it makes any It doesn't make any sense.

0:40:31.560 --> 0:40:34.080
<v Speaker 8>And that's not just Zeke, it's just really any running

0:40:34.120 --> 0:40:34.680
<v Speaker 8>back in general.

0:40:34.880 --> 0:40:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, Dalvin Cook, whatever.

0:40:36.480 --> 0:40:38.440
<v Speaker 4>And I like the point that Nick brought up to

0:40:38.560 --> 0:40:41.480
<v Speaker 4>about there are other positions to be addressed right now,

0:40:41.640 --> 0:40:44.520
<v Speaker 4>and running back is so deep in this draft class.

0:40:44.560 --> 0:40:47.040
<v Speaker 4>I mean we can I mean I'll open up this

0:40:47.200 --> 0:40:52.040
<v Speaker 4>Dallas Star Magazine draft guide, Uh yeah, and just look

0:40:52.080 --> 0:40:52.759
<v Speaker 4>at some of these guys.

0:40:52.840 --> 0:40:54.680
<v Speaker 2>Let's say, let's see, uh.

0:40:54.520 --> 0:40:58.520
<v Speaker 4>Jalen Wright out of Tennessee, Jonathan Brooks Texas, Trey Benson,

0:40:58.640 --> 0:41:02.319
<v Speaker 4>Bucky Irving, Blake or I mean, you've got options in

0:41:02.360 --> 0:41:05.680
<v Speaker 4>the upcoming draft. That's that's where you find your running

0:41:05.719 --> 0:41:09.840
<v Speaker 4>back talent. But when it comes to veterans in a

0:41:09.880 --> 0:41:12.560
<v Speaker 4>specific position, I would rather have them at linebacker. I

0:41:12.560 --> 0:41:16.239
<v Speaker 4>would rather have them at defensive tackle safety, even if

0:41:16.239 --> 0:41:19.080
<v Speaker 4>there's a possibility. I know you've got veterans of safety now,

0:41:19.120 --> 0:41:22.600
<v Speaker 4>but you need you need extra rotation there too. So

0:41:23.680 --> 0:41:27.759
<v Speaker 4>let let the draft play out first and then we

0:41:27.800 --> 0:41:29.719
<v Speaker 4>can talk about it. Is kind of where I'm at

0:41:29.719 --> 0:41:30.120
<v Speaker 4>as well.

0:41:30.360 --> 0:41:32.600
<v Speaker 6>I agree, Yeah, I think it's gonna be a very

0:41:32.640 --> 0:41:35.160
<v Speaker 6>similar situation where it's a big talking point all the

0:41:35.160 --> 0:41:37.279
<v Speaker 6>way up until training camp, over in the first couple

0:41:37.320 --> 0:41:39.440
<v Speaker 6>of weeks of training camp, and then they sign somebody.

0:41:40.320 --> 0:41:41.640
<v Speaker 8>But if they take a running back in the second

0:41:41.719 --> 0:41:43.120
<v Speaker 8>or third round, I don't think it'll be a talking

0:41:43.120 --> 0:41:43.920
<v Speaker 8>point for the Cowboys.

0:41:43.960 --> 0:41:45.120
<v Speaker 7>I really I hope not.

0:41:45.400 --> 0:41:48.399
<v Speaker 5>But like Ken, they don't, you know what I'm saying,

0:41:48.440 --> 0:41:50.080
<v Speaker 5>With the holes that they have, can you take a

0:41:50.160 --> 0:41:53.440
<v Speaker 5>running back that early? That's my question.

0:41:53.560 --> 0:41:57.000
<v Speaker 8>If you're Mike McCarthy and this is your second year

0:41:57.040 --> 0:41:58.520
<v Speaker 8>of calling the offense and you think it's going to

0:41:58.560 --> 0:42:00.640
<v Speaker 8>make that much of a difference in your offense that

0:42:00.680 --> 0:42:02.920
<v Speaker 8>particular player, then yeah, I could see him doing it.

0:42:03.000 --> 0:42:07.080
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, offensive line, running back, defensive tackle for three rounds?

0:42:07.680 --> 0:42:09.160
<v Speaker 7>Where do you have the issue.

0:42:11.080 --> 0:42:13.200
<v Speaker 5>The tackle? I feel like there's more running backs available

0:42:13.239 --> 0:42:16.920
<v Speaker 5>than these tackles to play that Zimmer I feel like,

0:42:19.280 --> 0:42:20.520
<v Speaker 5>and I agree with you, what you need. You can't

0:42:20.520 --> 0:42:21.560
<v Speaker 5>even say that's a bigger need.

0:42:21.640 --> 0:42:25.680
<v Speaker 8>But in terms of value, like the chances of that

0:42:26.560 --> 0:42:28.480
<v Speaker 8>running back coming in and making a media impact, and

0:42:28.560 --> 0:42:30.880
<v Speaker 8>the defensive tackle to me, aren't even in the same neighborhood.

0:42:30.880 --> 0:42:32.440
<v Speaker 8>It's not even close. Like, what are you getting from

0:42:32.480 --> 0:42:33.879
<v Speaker 8>that defensive tackle in year one?

0:42:35.239 --> 0:42:38.000
<v Speaker 5>They better get a lot In the Zimmer system, I

0:42:38.040 --> 0:42:40.520
<v Speaker 5>think you have. You have to in his system. You

0:42:40.600 --> 0:42:43.800
<v Speaker 5>have you cannot have an undersized interior defensiveignment in his system.

0:42:43.920 --> 0:42:46.200
<v Speaker 2>Were not even one. He was, he was your first

0:42:46.280 --> 0:42:46.800
<v Speaker 2>round pick.

0:42:46.840 --> 0:42:49.080
<v Speaker 5>He can't be the guy now in his current size.

0:42:49.080 --> 0:42:49.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't where he's that.

0:42:49.680 --> 0:42:51.799
<v Speaker 5>I haven't seen him since the offseason started, but based

0:42:51.880 --> 0:42:55.040
<v Speaker 5>upon where he ended last year, he at that size

0:42:55.160 --> 0:42:58.560
<v Speaker 5>is ineffective. In a Zimmer system, defensive tackle is so

0:42:58.680 --> 0:43:02.520
<v Speaker 5>much tougher to come in and be pro rreg thought,

0:43:03.080 --> 0:43:05.719
<v Speaker 5>which is why I say, can you afford you have

0:43:05.760 --> 0:43:08.160
<v Speaker 5>two offensive line positions that have to be filled. Now

0:43:08.160 --> 0:43:09.920
<v Speaker 5>you can easily say, okay, yeah, we have some guys

0:43:09.920 --> 0:43:11.480
<v Speaker 5>that you know, Hoffman and things of that nature that

0:43:11.520 --> 0:43:13.759
<v Speaker 5>we hope are going to come in and field the void.

0:43:13.840 --> 0:43:18.240
<v Speaker 8>But I think the hope I think the defensive tackle

0:43:18.320 --> 0:43:20.400
<v Speaker 8>will be addressed with some type of a veteran player.

0:43:20.600 --> 0:43:23.120
<v Speaker 8>I don't whether it be a trade, how they got Hankins, whatever,

0:43:23.160 --> 0:43:24.680
<v Speaker 8>there's gonna be something that happens there.

0:43:24.880 --> 0:43:26.560
<v Speaker 1>I do not see them relying.

0:43:26.200 --> 0:43:28.279
<v Speaker 8>On, oh well, we better take it a defensive tackle

0:43:28.280 --> 0:43:30.520
<v Speaker 8>in the first two rounds to pair with Mazi and Osa.

0:43:30.520 --> 0:43:31.439
<v Speaker 1>I just don't see that happen.

0:43:31.520 --> 0:43:34.239
<v Speaker 8>I think they need a veteran guy who And when

0:43:34.280 --> 0:43:35.920
<v Speaker 8>I say that, it's not gonna be somebody when the

0:43:35.960 --> 0:43:38.879
<v Speaker 8>move happens and everyone's gonna be like, oh, this fixes everything, yeah,

0:43:38.920 --> 0:43:40.279
<v Speaker 8>just like no one was really acting but when they

0:43:40.320 --> 0:43:42.040
<v Speaker 8>got Hankins. But it's gonna have to be a veteran

0:43:42.080 --> 0:43:44.600
<v Speaker 8>that's like Ben around the game who it's not gonna

0:43:44.600 --> 0:43:46.600
<v Speaker 8>be somebody that gets six seven sacks.

0:43:46.640 --> 0:43:47.200
<v Speaker 1>They're not gonna be.

0:43:47.239 --> 0:43:49.239
<v Speaker 8>But they're gonna be just a solid player in the

0:43:49.280 --> 0:43:50.680
<v Speaker 8>middle that that Zimmer likes.

0:43:50.719 --> 0:43:51.560
<v Speaker 1>That's what's gonna happen.

0:43:51.560 --> 0:43:52.480
<v Speaker 5>Three thirty plus.

0:43:52.560 --> 0:43:54.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, big, yeah, big body in there that's a.

0:43:54.719 --> 0:43:57.160
<v Speaker 2>Beef gotta be big beef gotta be.

0:43:57.360 --> 0:43:57.839
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it does.

0:43:57.960 --> 0:44:01.680
<v Speaker 6>Mason Smith, McKinley, Jackson, those are two names that to mind, lsux.

0:44:01.160 --> 0:44:03.680
<v Speaker 1>A and m So well, what rounds did they have

0:44:03.760 --> 0:44:04.440
<v Speaker 1>to do for that?

0:44:04.920 --> 0:44:08.560
<v Speaker 6>Mason Smith third, potentially McKinley. I think they can get

0:44:08.600 --> 0:44:11.160
<v Speaker 6>him in on day day three, but I would worry

0:44:11.160 --> 0:44:12.120
<v Speaker 6>that he would go in the fourth.

0:44:12.160 --> 0:44:13.720
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, we'll see, he'd be probably.

0:44:13.920 --> 0:44:16.759
<v Speaker 6>Day three is kind of a it's a scatterboard, like

0:44:16.840 --> 0:44:18.839
<v Speaker 6>there's guys that are getting fourth round grades that might

0:44:18.840 --> 0:44:19.520
<v Speaker 6>not get drafted.

0:44:19.560 --> 0:44:21.480
<v Speaker 7>I mean Day three is completely wide open this year.

0:44:21.719 --> 0:44:25.919
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, that that break between round three and four

0:44:26.040 --> 0:44:27.759
<v Speaker 4>this year, where you sleep on your board and you're

0:44:27.800 --> 0:44:31.120
<v Speaker 4>going into day three is going to be the most

0:44:31.120 --> 0:44:33.920
<v Speaker 4>stressful point of a lot of teams years.

0:44:34.000 --> 0:44:35.239
<v Speaker 7>After the top it's gonna be.

0:44:35.680 --> 0:44:38.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Top one hundred is pretty stout, Like you've got

0:44:38.600 --> 0:44:41.560
<v Speaker 4>starters at each position, and it's pretty even across the board.

0:44:41.800 --> 0:44:44.520
<v Speaker 4>Then in some positions. Once day three starts, it just

0:44:44.640 --> 0:44:47.040
<v Speaker 4>drops off. So it's gonna be really interesting to see

0:44:47.040 --> 0:44:50.399
<v Speaker 4>how teams come bat That countdown has begun, Kyle, darn right,

0:44:50.440 --> 0:44:52.280
<v Speaker 4>it has how many days?

0:44:52.520 --> 0:44:53.359
<v Speaker 2>Right off the top of your.

0:44:53.239 --> 0:44:58.600
<v Speaker 4>Head, twenty six, twenty three, twenty three days?

0:44:59.000 --> 0:45:00.480
<v Speaker 7>Shout Jordan, just.

0:45:00.520 --> 0:45:04.840
