And with the two guys 102 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 4: they put on they claimed waivers, so ready Steward with 103 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 4: a D and try quiz. 104 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 5: Bridges. 105 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 4: That's what both both defensive back you got it and 106 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 4: think about this. So basically what they what they've done 107 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 4: is they've claimed two guys they probably had some history 108 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 4: prior to the drafts about them, and they get to 109 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 4: see him for a week or two.

I'm told they really like Steward. 118 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 3: That they had him in Chicago last year on the practice. 119 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 4: Right, both DA and and Fluse. He was on the 120 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 4: played one game DJ. 121 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 8: Is David Overstreet, d A d A and D d 122 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 8: A confused but anyway. 123 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 4: It's just me sorry, I was thinking back to training camp. 124 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 4: But when he was with the Bears, he he played 125 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 4: in the preseason and the last preseason game he had 126 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 4: two interceptions and one for a pick six forty six 127 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 4: forty eight yards something like that, which caught their eye. 128 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 4: He didn't make the team, which. 129 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 3: Is what Kemon Hall did last year in the preseason. 130 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,679 Speaker 4: Two and kind of stuck around, right. 131 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 3: Do coaching staff? 132 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. And he played at Troy in his last 133 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 4: two years. He had seven interceptions in two pick sixes. 134 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 4: He four four five. 135 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 5: He's not big, it's eleven. 136 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 4: Five, eleven one, seventy five and whatever, but he caught 137 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 4: evidently caught their eye. And it's like, okay, let's take 138 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 4: a better look. So I think that was why they 139 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 4: did that, after they put the other two guys on 140 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 4: injured reserve return Carson uh and Phil MafA MafA two.

And so you 179 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 3: look at question marks on defense, it's the health at cornerback, 180 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 3: and it's the hold in by Micah and so there 181 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 3: it's like they're bringing in guys to just see what 182 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 3: they can accumulate, not knowing for sure when Trayvon Diggs 183 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 3: is coming back, and the other issues at cornerback and 184 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 3: not knowing for sure what's going on with Mike either. 185 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 6: Well, the real head scratcher for me was I thought 186 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 6: that that room was already loaded, the defensive end room. 187 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 6: I thought they had plenty of names there, Azaraku being 188 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,959 Speaker 6: one of them, Sam Williams being back healthy, he correct 189 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 6: me if I'm wrong. He looked like he was having 190 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,719 Speaker 6: a hell of a camp. Also Dante, and then the 191 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 6: names like really the names go on. So when they 192 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 6: brought in those guys, I guess that was a head scratcher, 193 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 6: especially with what you know they need in the cornerback 194 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 6: of safety rooms at the Nickel is what I'm talking about. 195 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 6: So you know, look, man, no matter what, September fourth 196 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 6: is gonna be here defensively is where you know? Up front? 197 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 6: Can you present pressure on Jalen Hurts? Can you get 198 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,599 Speaker 6: to them? Can you bother him?

Is okay, Let's say they 272 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 3: get to the point where they're agreeing to the contract. 273 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 3: The back's got to be checked out before a contract 274 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 3: is agreed to on the part of the team, you know, 275 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 3: and So when the reports came out this week that 276 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 3: MRI showed it was clean, I'm like, Okay, well maybe 277 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 3: we're making progress here because they needed to get it 278 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 3: checked out before a contractors agreed to.

I think he's one of 285 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 6: the best generational was what I put anytime I start 286 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 6: talking about him. 287 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 5: This is what a great move this was to bring 288 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 5: this guy in. 289 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 6: Everything that he's proved as a player has been off 290 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 6: the charts. But right now in this situation, we're talking 291 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 6: about MRIs and a guy trying to get a second opinion. 292 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 6: This is playing chicken with a mac truck, and it's 293 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 6: it doesn't bowld well, especially when you see the interviews 294 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 6: that Jerry had when he's like, we got him for 295 00:15:59,160 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 6: three years. 296 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 5: So we talked about it yesterday about leverage. 297 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 6: If you're trying to leverage this, that's I mean that 298 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 6: that's where you're getting into the place where I'm saying 299 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 6: this is getting weird. 300 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 7: This is you know, after a while, you know you're 301 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 7: gonna gamble.

My agent didn't. He's not part of a 337 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 7: conglomerate life. 338 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 4: Was just saying God, and that's the other thing. 339 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 3: And who is in charge? 340 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 2: I was in charge? 341 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 5: Yeah? 342 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 2: I made those decisions, right, that's spoke for me. 343 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 3: The players should be in charge. 344 00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 2: All he did was spoke to me for me. But 345 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 2: I made the decison. 346 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 4: And seeing he Mulaghetti is in one of these big agencies, right, 347 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 4: and I guarantee you he's got to show his wares right, 348 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 4: And I'll guarantee you the nfl PA is in his 349 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 4: ear going Hey, let's raise the maximum price for that position. 350 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 4: Let's not just agree to anything. That stuff happens behind 351 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 4: the scenes. And the other thing we don't know is 352 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 4: what are they asking for? Has anybody ever asked Jerry that? 353 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 4: And if they asked the agent, well, I know, but 354 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,679 Speaker 4: I'm not asking for everybody else. If I see him 355 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 4: in the hallway, I'll ask, right, But what are they 356 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 4: asking for? 357 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:45,199 Speaker 2: What? 358 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 4: Years? And pack? Not just package? Because I heard it 359 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 4: today talk radio and I had to go to music. 360 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 4: It was like, well, you know what they got to 361 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,679 Speaker 4: sign for. It's got to be the most at that position. Well, 362 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 4: what's the most is five hundred thousand dollars more than 363 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 4: who's ever got the most? Now does that count? Or 364 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 4: are they asking for fifty thousand dollars a year? I 365 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 4: mean at average? You don't know. It's never come out, 366 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 4: So what's the hold up? 367 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 6: Well, I think the best assumption is the years. When 368 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 6: you talked about three versus five, what else could it be? 369 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 4: But and remember this year counts. Yes, Like on the TJ. 370 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 3: Watt contract it was announced there's a three year, one 371 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty three million dollar deal. But I believe 372 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 3: he's on the books for twelve million this year, and 373 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 3: so that's an extension on top of it. Exactly, it's 374 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 3: really four years, one hundred and thirty five. 375 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 4: Million, but you have the opportunity to pro rate some 376 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 4: of that signing bonus in this year. Yeah, along with 377 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 4: however long the extension. 378 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 2: You can't do that with a three year. 379 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 4: Well you could do it with a three year, but 380 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 4: then you get four. And now the signing bonus if 381 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,959 Speaker 4: it's the say they offered him the largest signing bonus 382 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 4: in a non quarterback, right, well, that's going to be 383 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 4: like at least fifty million. So if you're pro rated 384 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 4: over five years, it's ten million. But if you pro 385 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 4: rated over four and then it gets more expensive. 386 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 3: Right. 387 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 4: So there's a given take there on do you want 388 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 4: your money now or do you want to be the 389 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,880 Speaker 4: top guy at your position. I would take the money now, 390 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 4: but I'm old, so well okay, so I think you 391 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 4: young people might get it. I'll take my money, okay. 392 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 3: So when we come back here on mix shots, let's 393 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,160 Speaker 3: take a look at this roster, see what we think 394 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 3: about it got some needs. 395 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 2: We're going down the HECMA headlines. 396 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 3: I think we're trying to we kind of got out 397 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 3: of turn.

Okay, so now you're 462 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 3: up over eighty. There's all this to do over the 463 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 3: last couple of days of the roster cut down day 464 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 3: and all that, and if you look around the league. 465 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 3: I was asking the question yesterday, I wonder how many 466 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 3: claims the Cowboys put in on cornerbacks around the league? 467 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 3: How many were taken before the Cowboys got there? Guys, Well, 468 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 3: somebody tweeted out today they had all the waiver claims 469 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 3: that were put in and these were the only two 470 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 3: of the Cowboys put in for were these two cornerbacks 471 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 3: and they were twelve in line, and they were twelfth 472 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 3: in line in the pecking order, And there were very 473 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 3: few around the league that of the players that got 474 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 3: claim that had multiple claims on them. Okay, which leads 475 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,679 Speaker 3: me to say, we make this big deal about the 476 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 3: cutdown day. But what happens with coaches is they want 477 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 3: the players they've been working with the last three or 478 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 3: four months, or that they have a past history with. 479 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 3: And so there's actually not a whole lot of claiming 480 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 3: going on on this initial week. 481 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 2: And good. You don't want to waste your time, that's right. 482 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 2: Don't waste your time. 483 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 7: We have enough work getting ready for Thursday with what 484 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 7: we have. You start bringing in people at the last minute. 485 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 7: It just it's such a disarray. 486 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,360 Speaker 3: And and with other players. Yeah, you might like their 487 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 3: talent and everything. They may look good on film, but 488 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,959 Speaker 3: you really don't know what you're like, what they're going 489 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 3: to play, or what they're like as a teammate, or 490 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 3: their study habits, all that stuff. They like to go 491 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 3: with the known product guys they've been working. 492 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 7: When they start bringing all these guys, I have nightmares 493 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 7: of nineteen eighty nine where it was just a dog 494 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 7: on train track coming through here and they just throwing 495 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 7: guys out there, just throwing stuff up against the wall 496 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 7: to see what fits. You know, let let's try and 497 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 7: hone in on what we got. And I thought they 498 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 7: would have done it a little sooner, and most NFL 499 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 7: teams do this. I think it's just because it's almost 500 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 7: like people want to say, well, I'm working. I want 501 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 7: to show you I'm working. Yeah, but you're not really 502 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 7: doing anything. You're just you're bringing more mess. You're bringing 503 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 7: more clutter, and we don't need that right now. 504 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 3: And so the ones that they have brought in are 505 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 3: ones position of need due to injury, the cornerbacks. 506 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 4: So all right, so wait, so how did you find 507 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 4: out you made it? In eighty one? 508 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 7: We didn't know until It was weird. We were at 509 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,400 Speaker 7: twenty sixties on Central. When we walked in the room, 510 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 7: it was still too many people. It was still too 511 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 7: many people, and. 512 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 4: I'm looking at it worked out the forty six. 513 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 7: We knew what the numbers, you know, we didn't how 514 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 7: many dbs that needed to be kept. 515 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 2: We knew Michael Dawn's was the first guy. He was 516 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 2: gonna make it. 517 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 7: So I walked in there and all the other cornerbacks. 518 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 2: Are still there. We have the meeting. Nobody tapped me 519 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 2: on my shoulder. 520 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 7: Next thing, you know, when the meeting's over, they had 521 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 7: already tapped Aaron Mitchell on his. 522 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,120 Speaker 2: Shoulder and said, hey, you're going to veteran You're going 523 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 2: to Tampa. 524 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 8: Oh. 525 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 5: They it. 526 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 7: And when he went to Tampa, that left the room 527 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 7: for me and fellows, you know, so you know that 528 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 7: was it. I looked around, like, oh damn, Mitch is gone, 529 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 7: and that was it. 530 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 4: So they didn't call you in like the cowboys called 531 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 4: in Perry and Winfrey, Yeah, and told him you made it. 532 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 5: His was more like a horror movie. Man, there's a 533 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 5: different time. 534 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 3: We didn't make it. It was a relief they didn't 535 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 3: have the seventeen men practice squads back then? Either were 536 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 3: you and that get paid two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. 537 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 2: A year if none of that? 538 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 7: Oh my goodness. Yeah, look, you know my Sally was 539 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 7: so no. 540 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 4: You heard the story about Charlie Waters, right, Uh, Myers 541 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 4: was the guy that told everybody he didn't make it. Right, 542 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 4: So he calls Charlie and said that, yeah, And he 543 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 4: calls Charlie and tells him you didn't make it. And 544 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 4: Charlie's like, my whole life passed in front of me, right, 545 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 4: It's like, really, I was a draft choice. I didn't 546 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 4: make it. What I'm going to do with my life? 547 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 4: And he said he didn't know who to talk to, 548 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 4: who go to call that he didn't make it. In 549 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 4: about two hours later, coach Myers calls him and say, uh, 550 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 4: made a mistake. You're you're on the teeth, made a mistake. 551 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 4: He told him he didn't make and Charlie was like 552 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 4: he started he I can't say what he said, but 553 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 4: he started cussing back at Myers, and Myers was like, 554 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 4: don't you talk to your coach like that. 555 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: Now. 556 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 7: But you know, if you recall eighty one, you know 557 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 7: we woke in such need for dbs. They were doing 558 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 7: what the Cowboys are doing now, but they did it 559 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 7: over the off season. 560 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 2: Just got a whole bunch of guys from everywhere. 561 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 7: They threw us all in the pot, and then they 562 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 7: tried to see which ones came up to the top 563 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 7: when they turned. 564 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 5: The fire on. 565 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 4: Okay, so we're at fifty three. 566 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 3: Okay, So what do you make does this fifty three 567 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 3: man roster? How does it stack up in the NFC East? 568 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 6: My questions have none of of them have been answered 569 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 6: for me. I think talent wise, I think we're sitting 570 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 6: right there between the C plus C minus when I mean, 571 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 6: especially when I go over to the defense, I want 572 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 6: to know. I mean, obviously we're going to get a 573 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 6: simple size right away with the game on September the 574 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 6: fourth offensive line wise is and defensive line is where 575 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 6: my biggest questions were going into the summer. 576 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 5: And I'm still there. 577 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 6: I don't know what Tyler Booker is, and no one 578 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 6: is really been able to tell me our right guard, 579 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 6: how he's fit in over the summer and what he's 580 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 6: going to look like, even with what we saw in 581 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 6: the preseason, So it's hard to gauge off of that 582 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 6: Terrence still another question at right tackle. Didn't have his 583 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 6: best season last season, but how does he build off 584 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 6: of that? And even with Tyler Geidon with the knee injury, 585 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 6: so defensive line wise, I read your article about Manzie 586 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 6: Smith and you went over that about. 587 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 5: The salary cap as well. 588 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 6: Boy, I tell you, it better be worth every part 589 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 6: of that three million dollars if you're going to keep 590 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 6: that guy around and he's still going to continue to 591 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 6: keep cost you if you're bringing you have an ebra 592 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 6: fluz coming in with a brand new defensive scheme if 593 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 6: that doesn't work. So, you know, my questions with this 594 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 6: roster still remain. My questions with the coaching staff still 595 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 6: remain because they they were so vanilla, uh in this 596 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 6: summer and in preseason, so a lot of our questions 597 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,239 Speaker 6: hadn't been answered. But I look at the talent here 598 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 6: and I'm still more at a you know, I think 599 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 6: this is a C C plus C minus from a 600 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 6: talent perspective. Would you bring in I would definitely bring 601 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 6: in some defensive time. 602 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 4: No, now, there's nothing to bring in now, that's what 603 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 4: I'm asking. 604 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 5: What would I bring in? 605 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 2: Now? 606 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 3: Yeah? 607 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 5: That's what you got? 608 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 4: What you got what I'm saying. I know, so your 609 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 4: your criticism would have been back in April or May 610 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 4: or June, right and saying nothing's changed. 611 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, no, status quo. 612 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 3: I think we started finding out next Thursday. 613 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. 614 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, and we saw a lot more in training camp 615 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 4: than they showed in preseason. 616 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 3: So what's your confidence level? Then? 617 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 4: I'm some I think this offense can be prolific if 618 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 4: the offensive line plays at least average. Yes, I got you. 619 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's who's starting at left tackle next Thursday. 620 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,080 Speaker 4: I got a feeling it's going to be Nate Thomas, 621 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 4: which concerns me. 622 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 6: Now you were asking me, did I watch something? Come on, 623 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 6: I'm ready for this. Did I see did you? No? 624 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 5: No, you were I said prolific? I saw a prolific 625 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 5: And he said, well did I did? I see? 626 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 2: What? What? 627 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 5: Did I? 628 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 4: Did you watch the wide receivers in training camp? 629 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 5: Yeah? 630 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 6: I mean I saw exactly what they did. George Pickens, 631 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 6: I'm more excited about him than I've been about a 632 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 6: lot of Cowboys in a very long time. 633 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 4: And add that to one with CD Lamb. I think 634 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 4: that's to Dak Prescott healthy. 635 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 6: But a left tackle that Okay, So here's what I'm saying, 636 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 6: I I don't feel as though at the running back position, 637 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 6: you've you've solidified anything. The guys that we had, even 638 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 6: looking from the training camp highlights or low lights. 639 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 4: Guys are at least as good as ric o'dowdell, who 640 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 4: ran for a thousand yards last year. 641 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 6: You're gonna you're gonna okay, no, no, no, And I'm 642 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 6: and I want to put the thousand yards in perspective, 643 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 6: but I'm gonna also say I think they're you know, 644 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 6: one A, one B as far as Rico Dada is 645 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 6: concerned and what he gave you, I don't know if 646 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 6: Williams or Miles Sanders are any better right now than 647 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 6: Rico Dada was for us last season without with the 648 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 6: out with the offensive line that we had, is what 649 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 6: I'm saying. 650 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 4: Well, the offensive line had problems last year too. Yeah yeah, right, yeah, 651 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 4: that's the running backs, Yeah, the offense. 652 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 2: So you're agreeing what I'm with what I'm saying. 653 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 4: I'm saying, I'm worried about left tackle. Even if Geyton 654 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 4: was there, he's got to show me something. And he 655 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 4: was playing early in training camp better than what I 656 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 4: saw last year, and then he gets. 657 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 6: Hurt Stylistically, you have to be balanced for all of 658 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 6: these things to work. For George Pickens and Ceedee Lamb 659 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 6: to be effective, you're going to have to have a 660 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 6: running game. And I love the fact that the NFL 661 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 6: is evolving well, but. 662 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 4: For those guys to be good, the offensive line has 663 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 4: to be good. It's no different. 664 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 5: Rico Dada ran for a thousand yards last season. 665 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 4: Mickey, Okay, and you just told me that. 666 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. 667 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 4: Yes, if the offensive line I said is at least average, 668 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,479 Speaker 4: then those guys are going to be really good at 669 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 4: wide receiver. And then can can. 670 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 2: You just saying the same. 671 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 4: Thing I'm just saying. I'm just saying that it's it's 672 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 4: not as bad now. Defense got to prove itself. But offense, 673 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 4: they can be really good. 674 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 2: They can be really good. 675 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 5: And agree with that. 676 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,800 Speaker 4: And if you if you see Jayden Blue, if he's healthy, 677 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 4: he's going to add something right. And I don't want 678 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,280 Speaker 4: to go on my rand about Cavante Turpin. 679 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,720 Speaker 5: Go ahead, he's going to add ahead. 680 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 4: The passing game can be really good, and you know 681 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 4: he already has twice. 682 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:44,720 Speaker 5: So here's my receiver. 683 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 7: Here's my thing I knew from the big in the 684 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 7: off season when we got a new coaching staff, a 685 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 7: new new team in a lot of areas, gotta you know, 686 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 7: unproven guys are coming in. I know that this season 687 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 7: is going to start off slowly. It's going to be 688 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 7: a slow start. I'm looking forward to even with the 689 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 7: schedule that they have later on in the season, I'm 690 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 7: looking forward to them getting better each week and each 691 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 7: section of the season.

But we've seen 801 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 7: starters offensively play before, yes, and we saw none of 802 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 7: this this year. It's kind of weird to me. 803 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 3: There have been years though, where we haven't seen them play. 804 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 3: I mean, and they've come out draive Tampa Bay. 805 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 4: And you're glad to see Tony Romo play in the 806 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 4: prest season in twenty sixteen? 807 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 2: What was wrong with that? 808 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 3: Got heard of that Scott became a quarterback? 809 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 5: What was wrong with that? 810 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 2: He knew, he knew, he knew? God? Yeah, and seasons, 811 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 2: But I mean, that's that's an exception. 812 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,359 Speaker 3: That's an exception that things worked out, okay, because Dak 813 00:41:58,360 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 3: Prescott became the quarterback. 814 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,320 Speaker 2: That was gonna work out. Okay. I wouldn't I wouldn't 815 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 2: condone that. 816 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 7: But the pattern is you've seen starters in pre season 817 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 7: offensively and even quarterback, and so we haven't seen wide receivers, quarterback, 818 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 7: we saw running back. It's just kind of weird to 819 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,359 Speaker 7: kind of predict not just what we're gonna do, but 820 00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 7: what Philadelphia is going to look like. 821 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 4: So I read that they lost five starters on defense. 822 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 4: Is that accurate injury or signings or whatever. 823 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, lot gone, Yeah, that sounds about accurate. 824 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 4: And that they're trying to fill in with young guys 825 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 4: that they've drafted. 826 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 3: Over the last couples they've drafted pretty well. 827 00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 7: I was gonna say, very rare. I have they do 828 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 7: their signings and drafting. 829 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,839 Speaker 4: They do, but I'm wondering if the dude in Philadelphia 830 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:51,000 Speaker 4: doing the show right now is going, well, I don't know, defense. 831 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 6: Time out right there? Whoa mickey, We're not gonna let 832 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 6: that one slide. They got a Jalen Carter over there, 833 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,879 Speaker 6: they got they got a lot of different stuff up front. 834 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 2: Oh, I know, I ad. 835 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:11,240 Speaker 7: I'm talking about the pessimism of the city of phil Here's. 836 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 4: Where the pessimism goes about the defense. It's always about 837 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 4: Mozzie Smith. I'm thinking he's not even going to start. 838 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 4: Solomon Thomas and OSU are going to be out there 839 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:29,439 Speaker 4: or Perry and Winfrey. Yes, so everybody's based in their 840 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 4: assessment of the defense on Mozzy Smith. I think I'm not. 841 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 5: I don't think so. 842 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 2: No, I'm not. 843 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm not Foller had Foller had ten and a 844 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 4: half sacks last year. Yeah, he's in Washington now, he's 845 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:48,360 Speaker 4: probably a might be designated pass rusher. 846 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 2: At this point. You need to expand your responsibilities. 847 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,440 Speaker 6: Right because I don't know, well, I don't think Philly 848 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 6: is going to air it out with Sakwan Barkley. 849 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:02,839 Speaker 5: I think they come up against the cow they going 850 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 5: to attack you. 851 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 4: Absolutely. 852 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 3: So what I teased, yes, because we got two more 853 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 3: shows to talk about the Eagles. The ceiling and the 854 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 3: floor for this team here this season. What do you 855 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,360 Speaker 3: think the ceiling is? And watch the floor? 856 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 2: Making the playoffs is the ceiling? 857 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:25,239 Speaker 3: That's as far as they can go. Yeah, they can't go. 858 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:27,040 Speaker 3: They can make the playoffs, but they can't win a 859 00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 3: playoff game. 860 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 4: He didn't say that. 861 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,759 Speaker 7: No, I can see him winning if it's if they 862 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 7: go in, but the first round? 863 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 3: Can they make it to the conference championship? 864 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 4: I wouldn't predict that. 865 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 2: No, I wouldn't predict that. 866 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:44,319 Speaker 3: What would need to happen for them to do that. 867 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,880 Speaker 6: You don't have to pull off a big trade to 868 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,359 Speaker 6: bring the existing roster existing ross. 869 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:58,479 Speaker 2: Okay, that's good. 870 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, so sailing floor. I want to say, this ceiling 871 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 6: would be and. 872 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 3: They go twelve and five like they did three straight 873 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 3: seasons with. 874 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 6: I would be I would be beside myself if they 875 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,399 Speaker 6: did that. But I think more nine and eight. 876 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 3: One of the issues is the schedule, not not just 877 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 3: not just for the Cowboys, the schedule for the NFC 878 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 3: East and the fact that this year the NFC East 879 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,720 Speaker 3: has to play the NFC North and the AFC West, 880 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 3: which featured those are two divisions that feature a total 881 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 3: of six teams that had winning records last year. It's 882 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 3: gonna be hard for a second playoff team to come 883 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,799 Speaker 3: out of the NFC East this year because. 884 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 7: Of the Seyeah Ball, because we've got two great teams 885 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 7: on top of us. 886 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 4: All, and let's not forget the six consecutive games against 887 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:58,760 Speaker 4: playoff teams that includes three division champs and two people 888 00:45:58,800 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 4: that played in. 889 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 7: The and and my my ceiling on that is they 890 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,359 Speaker 7: will do well if they once again keep the eye 891 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 7: on the prize for that stretch of games so Bill, 892 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 7: they can come out four and two in that stretch 893 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 7: if they keep their eye on the prize. 894 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 2: And and just man, your men, you're men. 895 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 7: I mean it's gonna be difficult, but man, you gotta 896 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,359 Speaker 7: win tough games. We gotta win tough games in order 897 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 7: to do anything this year. 898 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 3: Y'all are depressing me. 899 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 5: That's why. That's why I just, that's why. I just 900 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 5: that's why. 901 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 2: I just pinted that you want to go, go Cowboys said. 902 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 4: He's got to go.
