WEBVTT - Player's Lounge: Worth The Risk? 0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:12.559 To the players Lounge. All right, it's Friday, so that 0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:16.360 means it is the Players Lounge right here on Dallas 0:00:16.400 --> 0:00:19.400 Cowboys dot Com Radio, I'm new Restructs joined by former 0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:23.400 Dallas Cowboys players Danny McCrae and Barry Church. Fellas. We 0:00:23.520 --> 0:00:26.360 have a lot to discuss in this album. First off, 0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:28.040 let me check in on everybody as there at home. 0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:31.720 How you guys doing. I'm doing good man, Just you know, 0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:34.040 hoping my boy d Matt got his an Internet right? 0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:39.400 But why why he hated? That's all I'm doing here, man, 0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:42.599 Everybody hating me? I don't understand why. You know, if 0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:45.400 you if you subtract the hate from the outside of 0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:50.080 people in the life out here, the house is doing amazing. Okay, 0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:55.480 all right, let us start with Olden Smith. The Cowboys 0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:59.760 signed the former Pro Bowl defensive lineman linebacker. He started 0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:02.440 with San Francisco forty nine ers, seventh overall pick in 0:01:02.480 --> 0:01:06.520 twenty eleven, ended up having some substance issues, got cut 0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.520 by the Niners side by the Raiders. Raiders ended up 0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:13.560 dropping him and Jay Glazer broke the report. Jay Glazier 0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:16.080 Fox fourth. The Olden Smith signs of one year deal 0:01:16.120 --> 0:01:18.560 four million dollars with a lot of incentive side to it, 0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:21.880 and that Jim Tomsula's former coach with the forty nine 0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:24.319 ers is now with the Cowboys' d line coach and 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:29.200 Mike McCarthy somehow connected with Alden Smith and he feels 0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:35.520 good about it. So Alden Smith the Dallas Cowboy. Yeah, 0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:38.880 I'm I'm man. This was confusing to me. Man. I mean, 0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:42.600 we got a guy who who hasn't played football in 0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.840 four years. I mean, he was he was a you know, 0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:47.960 all pro player. His first two years coming out, he 0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:50.040 played extremely high level. I think he had like thirty 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:52.080 three and a half sacks for his first two years. 0:01:52.320 --> 0:01:54.680 But after that, I mean he was on a decline. 0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:56.160 I mean when he went to Oakland, he had a 0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:57.720 couple of sacks here and there, but he was never 0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.960 the player that he was as his first two years 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:02.800 in San Francisco, and then he took a four year 0:02:03.480 --> 0:02:05.400 He's got kicked out of the league for four years. 0:02:05.440 --> 0:02:08.240 I mean, the guy had substance abuse, he had legal troubles, 0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:10.480 and then I guess he's supposed to work all this 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:12.400 magic and he's back to normal now. And I'm all 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:15.400 about second chances, But I mean, four years out of 0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:17.240 the league and you think he's gonna come in and 0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:19.680 produce a pass rush. I mean, we need to we 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:21.520 need to improve our rush. We really had, like, you know, 0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:23.480 a couple of sacks here and there last year. But 0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:25.560 I just don't think this is the guy to do it. 0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:28.120 I would have rather put my money on Randy Gregory. 0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:32.160 But I mean, we'll see what happens. Maybe I'm wrong, Yeah, Church, 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:35.079 you know you just you you mentioned second chances, all right, 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.680 So I'm gonna just I'm looking at this timeline of 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:40.600 Alden Smith and it's twenty twelve suspicion to be U 0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:45.760 twenty twelves, get stabbed twice, twenty thirteen, single car accident, 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:49.040 twenty thirteen, three family charges of possession of assault or 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:52.240 assault weapon, and it just keeps on going on, and 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:56.480 I'm like, well, what are we doing? So it's not 0:02:56.520 --> 0:02:59.839 only a decline this man. It was in Oakland while 0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:04.000 and I cannot imagine imagine what I happened in Dallas. 0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:06.800 We already tried this with the Greg Hardy experiment. And 0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:09.440 then so now we got Aldon Smith coming in here, 0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:11.920 and you know, if they say changed, I guess, I 0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:14.880 guess everybody deserves like a sixth chances. So let's get 0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:16.720 another church. You mentioned it. Why don't they bring you 0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:22.000 back for four meal? That's just bring me. If you're 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:24.080 gonna bring somebody back from for me, I'm coming out. 0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:25.639 I've been only I've been only out of football for 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:27.799 two years. If ye, if y'all give it up four meal, 0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:32.040 let me slide back in there. Jeesus, I'm gonna play 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:35.320 Devil's advocate here. Okay, I'm just gonna Playvil's advocate here 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:41.000 we go. I will base it off the one interview 0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:43.920 that I did have with Aldon Smith. Okay, it was. 0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:47.120 It was the Super Bowl up in New York, Broncos 0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:51.560 the Seahawks, and Alden Smith came by and sat down 0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:54.360 in our NBC Sports radio booth. I got to talk 0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:56.400 to him a little bit before we went on Mike 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:59.080 and then and then on Mike and did this a 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:03.760 little bit out afterward, and he was a you know, 0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:06.520 he had his issues at the time, but he wasn't 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:09.120 a bad dude. Now, I like to consider myself a 0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:12.800 pretty decent judge of character. He wasn't a bad guy. 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:15.920 And you guys know, there's guys who who do a 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:18.360 lot of things that are questionable, that are bad people, 0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:20.520 and you're like, now, you were a bad dude. This guy, 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:25.039 I thought he was lost as a young guy. He 0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:27.919 was lost and apparently and I'm just going by what 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:30.760 Jay Glazer said, who's worked him out and he's been 0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:33.320 and he's been in Jay Glazer's program out there that 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:38.080 he has come back and he's ready to play. Now 0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:40.840 what he contributes, Lord, I don't know. Okay, four years 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:42.840 out of football, that's a long time. He's thirty years 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:45.400 old as a young man's game. But if he has 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:49.440 fixed himself mentally, and Jerry wants to take the chance, 0:04:49.520 --> 0:04:52.880 this is what this is last chance you and you know, Barry, 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:56.480 you could see Jerry. You could see Jerry employ Brandy 0:04:56.560 --> 0:05:00.640 Gregory and Alden Smith this year. Both. Let me tell 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.920 you something that's that's not just This is so much 0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:05.720 different to me though, because I think that all the 0:05:05.880 --> 0:05:08.920 Smith he was able to get better how he is now, 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:11.320 probably because he was away from the game. The game 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:14.040 is probably what brought him all that, all the headaches 0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:16.279 and and crazy thoughts that he had going on to 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:22.400 do all this, he got just alcohol, knives, guns and 0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:25.240 car accidents that's That's that sums it up for me. 0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:28.480 I just I'm not sure. But the newly Devil's advocate, 0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:30.720 give all the smith a chance, We'll see how it works. 0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:34.400 I just don't know. I just don't know how he 0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:36.279 can create a pass rush out there. I mean, they're 0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:38.880 gonna pay him uch defensive and I assume, and it's 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.720 just there's a difference between shape and football shape. Like 0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:43.039 you know what I'm saying. I could see if he 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:46.039 was out there, you know, you know, playing in something 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:47.960 some type of you know, XFL or something, but he 0:05:48.000 --> 0:05:51.960 hasn't played actual football in four years. And in those 0:05:52.000 --> 0:05:54.200 four years. We're not saying he just went automatically straight 0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:57.359 to the program from leaving football. I'm assuming he, you know, 0:05:57.520 --> 0:05:59.440 was going through legal Trumble's going through all this for 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:02.000 a couple of years, So I'm assuming he didn't start 0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:04.400 getting back in football shape for the past maybe a year, 0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:06.839 maybe two years. And I just don't think it'll add 0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:09.200 up for the Cowboys. But like I said it before, 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:11.560 maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't see them get 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:13.719 getting a lot of generation out of or generating product 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:16.280 out of him. He might be able to do something. 0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:18.160 I mean He's only getting based two millions dollars, so 0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:21.640 I ain't gonna cost him a lot. Okay, and keep 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:23.720 in mind too, I mean this thing is heavily incentibout, 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:26.359 so if they want to go ahead and run him, 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.640 they can. So basically this is a free It's basically 0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:31.200 a free look for you. Give you the cowboys to 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:32.840 stay on Aldon Smith, you're on the players leaves, and 0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:36.520 I want to get this aspect with you guys. Who 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:41.880 in the locker room is the person to work with 0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:44.400 and Aldon Smith to work with the Randy Gregory. I mean, 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:47.279 obviously these guys have to take care of themselves, but 0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:49.360 is there anybody in the room you guys have been 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:51.840 in that room who talks with guys, who are the 0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:55.159 leaders that helps work with guys who had all field 0:06:55.320 --> 0:06:59.240 issues for me? I mean they're not oh, go ahead, 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:02.000 go ahead, Danny. Oh no. Yeah. I had no answer 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:03.520 for that one because I didn't play with a lot 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:05.840 of these guys. I know, we had doctor Jackie, and 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:08.400 we had some outside people that would come in and 0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:10.440 make sure that our heads are on straight. But as 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:13.320 far as the locker room, Church is probably more familiar 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:15.840 with these guys than I am, I would have to 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:19.040 say from the locker room I'm seeing now, I'm assuming 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:20.760 there's I don't know if there's anybody that can really 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:22.320 talk to him. I would say d Law and those 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:24.720 guys they're still they're still relatively young, they're still in 0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:27.120 their prime. They're still trying to get themselves up to 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:30.120 that upper echelon. When I was playing, I mean, there 0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:33.000 was guys like you know, the Marcus ware, the Jason Hatcher's, 0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:36.120 the Spears of the world who were veteran, veteran guys 0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:38.160 and who can get those guys going along good and 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:40.000 get them in the right program. But here, I mean, 0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:42.320 you got the hot boys, and they're all relatively young. 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:45.120 They're all relatively young to this NFL, so I can't 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:48.120 really see them out there putting them under their wings saying, hey, 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:49.520 we gotta do this, so we gotta do that. Plus 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:51.640 they're younger than him, so I mean that's something I 0:07:51.680 --> 0:07:54.400 can't really see happening. But hopefully he's able to get 0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:56.440 that mentorship and get on the right path and help 0:07:56.480 --> 0:08:01.560 his Cowboys team out. Okay, so basically it's got to 0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:04.520 be d line coach Jim Tom Sueler. It's gotta be. 0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:07.760 I mean, that's who I assume put you know, put it, 0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:09.960 put the put him on his back and said hey, 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:12.280 bring him here with us. So I assume he's gonna 0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:13.760 have to chop to him and make sure that he's 0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:17.920 going on the right path. Yeah, player development, player personnel. 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:20.360 They have to keep a good eye on him, just 0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:22.360 to make sure that he didn't get caught up in 0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:26.480 the lights here and in the long Star state. All right, 0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:28.760 So right here on the players Loud, it's basically a 0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:31.280 thumbs down for Dandy McCrae and Burry Church with the 0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:34.920 Aldon smith Son. Yeah, yeah, I'm thumb found with it. 0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:40.480 All right. Now here's here's what I found interesting and 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:43.960 looking at a picture that is causing issues out there 0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:49.920 on on social media. Des Bryan Ezekiel, Elliott, Dak Prescott. 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:52.040 So it's a group of five they all got together, 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:54.439 took one photo. Okay, so they took one photo and 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:56.640 they put it out there, actually did put it out there. 0:08:57.160 --> 0:08:59.920 And Dad said, you know, hey got back with Dak 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:02.560 and it seems like nothing, you know, nothing changed at all. 0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:05.680 And I had a medium member call me and say, 0:09:05.920 --> 0:09:09.840 think about this. The Cowboys signed Alden smith who's been 0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:12.800 out of football four years. It signed just Bright tomorrow 0:09:12.920 --> 0:09:14.840 and they won't do it. He says. That's all you 0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:17.360 need to know. He said this, Bryan is not coming 0:09:17.360 --> 0:09:21.640 back to the Cowboys. You know. See, it's buying in 0:09:21.720 --> 0:09:26.400 the newest thing. I don't know. The longer the longer, 0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:31.240 the longer that we go into this quarantine and not 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:34.440 being able to look at free agents and and and 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:36.800 the owners having to like lean on guys that they're 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:39.480 familiar with. I think this then's the shots get a 0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:41.720 little a little higher. His chance of being on the 0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:44.080 team next year gets higher the longer we go into 0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:47.640 this quarantine. So what you're saying basically is as long 0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:49.760 as long as he's putting videos out there of him 0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:52.320 working out against you know, these these random dds here 0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:54.319 and there, no one else is putting out tape, So 0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:56.160 he got a shot out. I agree with what you 0:09:56.240 --> 0:09:57.880 are now, one man. I mean, he's the only one 0:09:57.920 --> 0:10:01.560 putting out footage, and he's so baby Dak will give 0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:03.240 him to give him this two cents in there. But 0:10:03.559 --> 0:10:05.480 I can see that happening. I can see it happening 0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:07.360 for sure. And you know, and you know, they say 0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:10.080 it's about who you know, all right, he knows Jerry. 0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:12.960 Jerry loves him all right. So not only is he 0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:14.839 working out with all the leaders on the team that 0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:17.360 Jerry loves. Jerry said, you think about him in the shower, 0:10:17.400 --> 0:10:19.720 all right, So I'm you know, his chances, his chances 0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:24.800 are increasing. If Mike McCarthy wanted Dez Bryant, they'd have 0:10:24.840 --> 0:10:26.560 got de right, and think of it. This, okay, here's 0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:29.559 another another thing that then says, oh yeah, ding ding ding. 0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:32.760 So the Cowboys signed kicker Kai forbad all right, They 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:35.720 signed him, and days later they go out and give 0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:39.199 Greg Zerline a three year contract for seven and a 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:43.640 half million dollars. Zer Line worked with Jim John Fossil, 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:46.440 the special team's coach with the Rams. So Jerry's out 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:50.360 here giving guys the players they want. So a special 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:53.160 team's coach can go get a kicker signed way over market. 0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:56.880 If Mike McCarthy wanted Dez Bryant, he'd have had him 0:10:56.880 --> 0:11:01.400 by now. Clearly he doesn't want. It's Jerry. It's Jerry 0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:03.280 that wants. So Jerry gonna give him everything they want 0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:04.599 and then say, oh, yeah, by the way, this is 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:07.880 the guy that I want. Deal with it. Deal with it. 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:11.360 I could definitely see that happening with Jerry says back, 0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:13.160 and then you know why, Hey, y'all got what y'all want. 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:15.120 But hey, I'm gonna throw this extra little crumb on 0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:17.480 their Hey, Dad's coming come back to this team. There's 0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:20.880 a couple of touchdowns. We'll see what's going on. This 0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:23.600 has happened before. Yes, this has happened before. We have 0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:26.839 seen it. So so that's not out of the realm. Okay, so, 0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:30.160 or then I'll play devil's advocate. If you want to 0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:34.720 bring in des Bryant. Where does he play on special teams? 0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:37.200 We talked about this earlier on the Players Lives. I 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.360 mean all the things that you're gonna need him to do. 0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:41.920 He can't play slot. So there's fans out there on 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:44.120 social media who believe, you know, oh, we can replace 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:47.160 des Bryant. You know Randall Cobb. You know, No, he 0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:49.840 can't do it. Randall Cobb does. That's not what they do. 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:53.000 So where does this guy fit in your offense? And 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:54.880 don't tell me tight end like some people trying to 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:59.959 out happen. So you can bring in des Bryant thirty 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:02.199 something years old, He's not gonna be back there and 0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:04.960 returning kicks or punch. I mean, where does this? Where 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:07.640 do you? I don't see how this thing works. I 0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:13.599 really don't. Can galla play the play the slot? Is 0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:15.840 that the best use of Gallops talent? No, I'm just 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:18.480 I'm just asking for the devil's advocate here. We're just 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:19.960 trying to find a way fro him to fit in. 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:25.120 Can't he play the slot? I don't think you get playing. 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:28.880 I don't think. I don't know. I don't think you know. 0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:33.920 Go ahead. Oh no, I'm good, I'm good. I think 0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:36.120 that his current chances are increasing. Knew he knew he 0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:38.200 is opposite, but you know he also don't like Papato, 0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:41.160 so I can't trust them. I think you're gonna sign 0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:43.959 Aldon Smith, the dude who's been out on the street 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:48.440 for four years with all those they said, Nahdes, we're good, 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:52.320 We're gonna go old acause that speaks for all used. No, 0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:55.000 they didn't say it that the d li COO said 0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:57.959 that he can't use this. The only person that really 0:12:58.000 --> 0:13:02.480 want this is is Jerry, And if Jerry really wants him. 0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:04.640 When the chills fall at the end and they haven't 0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:07.800 found a receiver, that they can feel a spot. Daz 0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:12.240 would be first on the list. I don't know, we're 0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:14.440 gonna see you. I don't know because, like you said, 0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:17.120 I can't see him playing the slide. I don't know 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:18.840 if he can still play on the outside. I mean, 0:13:18.880 --> 0:13:20.480 I don't know if he's still quick or fast enough. 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:22.560 I think he could be a red zone option. I mean, 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:24.679 he's still got that jump ball awareness and he's one 0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:26.079 of the best in the leagues that getting the ball 0:13:26.120 --> 0:13:28.640 as highest points, so he might be able to slide 0:13:28.679 --> 0:13:30.920 in there. It's just how much of the Cowboys wanting 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.400 to pay him or is he just Hey, I could 0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:34.880 play for pennies At this point, I just want to 0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:38.200 get back on the field. I mean, we'll see absolutely absolutely, 0:13:38.200 --> 0:13:41.760 I think he'll do whatever. And based on that, they're 0:13:41.800 --> 0:13:45.080 better teams. Okay, there's better clubs where Daz has a 0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:47.280 more realistic chance of not just going to a team, 0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:49.920 but being a starter on the outside. Cowboys got Cooper, 0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:52.640 they got Gallup. I mean, if I'm dead, I want 0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:56.320 to go somewhere where I can actually play. And if 0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:58.720 you're a team out there, this is a guy you 0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:00.400 don't want those special teams, So he needs to be 0:14:00.440 --> 0:14:02.319 one of your top two receivers, or if you want 0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:03.920 to make the exception to make one of your top three. 0:14:04.080 --> 0:14:06.680 I think that Bryan has a better opportunity than other 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:10.160 NFL cities than doubts. So so am I hearing you 0:14:10.200 --> 0:14:13.600 say that that's gonna be a starter. I'm just saying 0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:16.360 for some team out there, okay, all right, you changed 0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:18.960 changing up a little bit for for some team, you know, 0:14:19.080 --> 0:14:22.320 for some team, maybe added Gay Swanson. I don't know, 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:25.920 but I'm just saying, on this team, they don't need him. 0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:29.560 They take this note. Church, take the note, Church, take 0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:33.680 the note. Right now, man, we're gonna we're gonna see 0:14:33.840 --> 0:14:36.520 we're gonna see training camp hopefully is right around the corner. 0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:40.920 So we're gonna see sold on his Twitter video? Aren't 0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:43.080 you sold on this Twitter videos and him working out? 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:44.800 You don't believe he could be a starter of the league. 0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:48.280 You know, I would put more into those videos if 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:50.800 I knew the defender that was guarding him, Like if 0:14:51.040 --> 0:14:52.920 it was a legit guy giving him work out there, 0:14:52.920 --> 0:14:55.080 than all right. But he you know this guys out 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:57.440 there just slapping around hands and stuff. I don't you know, 0:14:57.640 --> 0:15:00.360 I can't I can't put too much into it. Yeah, 0:15:00.440 --> 0:15:02.880 not based on the videos, just based on what I 0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:05.840 know about Diz and I know if he's healthy that 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:08.760 he can be productive in the NFL. He could be 0:15:08.760 --> 0:15:11.080 at number one, well, probably at number two receiver, depending 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:12.680 on what team you put them on. Yeah, you're not 0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:15.080 playing special teams. But it's somewhere out there where he's 0:15:15.120 --> 0:15:21.720 better than the number two guys. All right, Danny, you 0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:23.920 and I had an off air conversation I want to 0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:27.400 bring to bring to the show, and that's about the 0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:32.480 slot receiver. I don't see the slot receiver being something 0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:34.880 they addressed early in the draft. They could, but I 0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:37.560 just also feel like with the way of the receiver 0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:41.840 position goes, the Cowboys could end up signing somebody in 0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:45.280 free agency later on after the draft, or we always 0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:47.880 see guys who get cut in June. I just think 0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:50.360 this is a position that they can fill. I don't 0:15:50.360 --> 0:15:52.560 think that they necessarily need to use a first or 0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:58.680 second day draft pick on a slot Yeah. Yeah, I 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:01.440 don't know, man, Randall. I've had a high production last year, 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:04.400 and it's not because he was just to anybody. Cole 0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:07.000 Beasley has has a high production on the team he's 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:10.000 playing with now and we've seen that he's a damn 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:12.360 good receiver. So it's not like you could just plug 0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:16.040 and play just because you know, just because the system 0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:18.000 says that somebody can get in there and ball out. 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:21.160 Randall Cob was a great slot receiver, and so it 0:16:21.200 --> 0:16:22.840 was Cole Beasley. So I think they still have to 0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:24.520 put some work in to find a guy that could 0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:26.080 fit there and not just try to plug and plug. 0:16:27.120 --> 0:16:28.840 I definitely think they need to find a guy that 0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:30.480 can fit and they have to do their homework at 0:16:30.520 --> 0:16:33.040 this too. I think, you know, if you have two 0:16:33.160 --> 0:16:37.040 outside receivers like they're doing Gallup and they're doing Amari Cooper, 0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:38.440 I think you have to have a guy in that 0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:41.200 slot that's very quarterback friendly. And as we've seen this 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:44.520 two slots in the past, Beasley and Randall Cop, they're 0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:46.880 very They were both former quarterbacks, so they know what 0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:48.920 the quarterback is looking for. They were able to get 0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:52.320 open against against his own coverage is a lot and 0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:55.280 it's just extremely smart, intellectual players who can who play 0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:57.720 the game like chess. And we've seen Randall Cop have 0:16:57.840 --> 0:16:59.760 an extremely good season if it wasn't for a couple 0:16:59.760 --> 0:17:01.840 of whole penalties here and there. I mean, he would 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:04.720 have been maybe top two receiving on this team. So 0:17:05.040 --> 0:17:06.800 I think they need to do their homework on a 0:17:06.840 --> 0:17:08.400 slot receiver. I think they need to get a real 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:11.680 good one that's very quarterback friendly and hopefully he can 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:14.160 explode just like Cobb An Beasley did in the passport. 0:17:14.280 --> 0:17:23.560 Dak Prescott, all right, this is why you hired Mike McCarthy. 0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:25.800 Mike McCarthy, it's his job to go find one of 0:17:25.840 --> 0:17:28.359 these guys. It's his job to take a young player, 0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:30.800 which he specialized in the Green Bay because Ted Thompson 0:17:30.880 --> 0:17:33.560 was always drafting guys. He can go make a wide receiver. 0:17:33.680 --> 0:17:36.200 That's why I'm paying these guys this kind of money. 0:17:36.280 --> 0:17:38.360 You go find me somebody. They were able to find. 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:40.600 Cold beazis an undrafted free agent. The Cowboys are the 0:17:40.600 --> 0:17:43.680 first team to bring in Danny ammondla unrestricted free agent. 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:46.480 I just believe they can find one of these guys. 0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:49.160 What when we come back, I will tell you why 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:53.280 the Cowboys cannot use a first round pick on a 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:56.040 wide receiver. Cowby to give you that. Also, this whole 0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:58.359 Jamal Adams trade. Some of you folks out there have 0:17:58.480 --> 0:18:01.199 been trying to sit around yar pedal. We'll get into that. 0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:07.119 And one Cowboys player called a turd on ESPN Friday morning. 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.240 We'll dive into that next under he scruggs.
