I'm gonna take 0:00:56.080 --> 0:00:57.680 a big picture look at this team. I got a 0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:00.800 few questions here to talk about some different topics around 0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:01.320 the team. 0:01:01.960 --> 0:01:03.360 We'll take a little bit of time. 0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:06.440 To talk about the NFL and where we think the 0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:09.360 NFC is, particularly in the NFC, how we think the 0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:12.320 teams are stacking up. Each of these guys give me 0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:15.959 their top seven and then of course we will start 0:01:16.040 --> 0:01:17.160 today with a. 0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:17.839 Little bit of news. 0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:20.560 Cowboys working out a wide receiver, and normally when this 0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:22.399 name came up yesterday, when I first heard it, I 0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:24.560 was thinking, okay, well they're just kind of looking around. 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:25.240 Uh. 0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:28.119 But then Jerry and his time with one O, five. 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:30.720 Dot three of the Fan this morning mentioned on a 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:33.600 couple different occasions, well we got this wide receiver that 0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:36.120 we're bringing in the workout today, which made me just 0:01:36.240 --> 0:01:38.400 kind of like, is it that big of a deal 0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:40.959 Martevis Bryant, guy that hasn't played in the league since 0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:43.920 I think twenty eighteen, So it made me think let's 0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:47.080 at least have the conversation and see if there's anything 0:01:47.120 --> 0:01:49.720 we should be thinking about here. Brian, I'll start with 0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:54.040 you going back to your scouting of Martevis Bryant as 0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:55.520 a player, and before you. 0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:59.160 Even get into that, why do we need a wide receiver? 0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:01.000 Oh, we're going to We're gonna get to that. 0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:03.520 We're going to that. We're going to let's start first. 0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:05.360 Okay, I got a plan. 0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:08.600 Okay, I'm going to apologize. 0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:10.480 But I do want to start first with saying, okay, 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:13.000 Martins Bryant, tell me about the player. 0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:16.360 Sorry, proceed, he's gonna just. 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:18.079 One day, I don't know, one day He's not just 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:19.680 we're good. 0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:22.960 Yeah, I just wanted to see the scenario first before 0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:24.720 getting into the player. Yeah. 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:29.520 The thing with Brian is though, I I I think 0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:32.320 it's an interesting look at a player just because of 0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:33.840 the sis factor of the player. 0:02:34.400 --> 0:02:36.480 Uh, the ability. I mean, I think this guy might 0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:40.760 have some of that like Deebo Samuel type ability to 0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:43.040 him when you hand him the ball, or you throw 0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:45.200 him the ball, or you watch him run with the ball. 0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:48.040 And unfortunately for him, you know, he got into a 0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:51.720 situation with the league that they suspended him, and you know, 0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:54.079 he missed the whole entire year. But you look at 0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:56.200 this guy's body type, the plays that he has the 0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:58.799 ability to make. Yes, it was you know, a few 0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:03.800 years ago, but he's the type of guy that's got 0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:06.600 something to his game. Back in the day, he was 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:10.320 a physical receiver, he was a physical runner. There were 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:13.320 things about him when you watched him play where you're 0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:15.400 like going, gosh, that guy's kind of hard to deal with. 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:18.680 And you know, maybe that time has gone by, but 0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:21.560 I always am interested in going back and looking at 0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:24.760 players that might have come off from suspensions. 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:25.359 You know, the. 0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:28.480 We've seen guys in the past that have come and 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:33.240 they haven't been able to recoup or redo what. 0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:34.320 They were once were. 0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:37.600 But this guy is an interesting one just because of 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:42.160 his background and where he was that before his suspension 0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:47.280 was playing at a pretty high level. So I'm okay 0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:49.120 with kicking the tires on something like this. 0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:51.560 Interesting thing about him. He's been in the league. 0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:54.760 He came into the league in twenty fourteen, played fourteen 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:58.520 and fifteen, suspended for a season, Yeah, in fifteen, I 0:03:58.520 --> 0:04:01.160 mean our sixteen, came back and played seventeen and eighteen 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:04.720 and has not played since twenty eighteen. So it's interesting, 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:08.240 like where is he as far as physically, I mean, 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:10.600 that's six years ago that you lasted, five years ago 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:13.160 you last played in the NFL. It's a long time 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:16.200 to not have taken an NFL snap. But obviously the 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:18.400 Cowboys are kicking the tires. And then I think the 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:21.599 natural question that comes from that, which goes to what 0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:23.080 A was asking. 0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:26.440 Is why are the Cowboys looking for a wide receiver? 0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:29.120 Does this at all say something about what they currently 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:31.480 have on the roster or is this a situation where 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:33.240 you just kicked the tires because he was a guy 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:34.680 at one point that was interesting to you. 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:39.480 I think it's more so that than anything. I've been 0:04:39.600 --> 0:04:43.240 kind of mugging around in my head for the past 0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:46.239 couple of days on this likely signing at this point. 0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:49.760 And it's no harm, no file if you want to 0:04:49.880 --> 0:04:51.680 give him a shot because you had some interest in 0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:54.440 him a few years ago, And it's not like you're 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:56.200 trying to add him to the active roster and you're 0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:59.680 going to sacrifice somebody's spot. It's a practice squad situation. 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:02.800 If it works out for you, great, If it doesn't, 0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:04.719 what did it cost you? Right? 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:07.240 So time is money, time is fou. 0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:08.640 He's going to be on the same field with the 0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:10.760 same coaches and the same players as the other people. 0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:12.960 So it's not that it's costing them any more time 0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:15.159 than if he weren't here. So to speak, my bigger 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:20.240 question is what are you expecting him to be? So 0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:22.279 let's say it does work out, Like, what does that 0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:24.640 look like for the Dallas Cowboys? Because what a success 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:24.920 look like? 0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:25.160 Right? 0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:27.120 What does the success look like for them? So if 0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:29.120 he does come in and he's doing what they want 0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:31.760 him to do, like, what does that create for them? 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:35.640 Because for me, even if you are of the subscription 0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:38.560 that Michael Gallup might not be the answer. Okay, I'm 0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:41.320 not quite there yet, especially seeing how he recovered in 0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:44.240 the Philadelphia game after that drop. I would, for one, 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:46.479 like to see more snaps to Jalen Tobart. You've seen 0:05:46.560 --> 0:05:50.200 Tobart produce Tobert gets the touchdown. You see Jalen Brooks. 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:52.680 He's the undrafted rookie, he's on the practice squad, he 0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:55.240 was a standout in training camp. You have that as well, 0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:59.360 so you already have some semblance of depth at the position. 0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:02.159 Cavante turping is an option at wide receiver as well. 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:06.080 Behind you know Cookson and Ceede, Lamb and Gallop Jake Ferguson, 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:08.880 who I believe should be the number two target for 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:12.719 Dak Prescott until further notice. That's the only question I 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:15.280 have is if Martavis Bryant works out for the Cowboys 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:18.000 from a schematic standpoint, what does that look like for 0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:20.280 them at that position? And that's what I can't yet 0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:22.600 figure out. And that's where you and I are on 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:24.120 the same page as far as kind of bumping our 0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:25.880 head against that wall, like what are we not seeing 0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:28.719 here behind that wall? But as far as risk reward 0:06:28.920 --> 0:06:31.400 if it doesn't work out, Okay, no harm no foul 0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.640 pennies on the dollar, you send him on his way. 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:36.800 If it does, where does that go? So that that's 0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:38.560 kind of a great area for me right now. 0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:46.160 Yeah, it makes zero sense to me whatsoever because of 0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.479 the needs. I mean, if you've been looking at a player, 0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:53.159 what about a tackle? What a lot about an old 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:56.560 lineman that can be I didn't depth in hear when 0:06:57.000 --> 0:07:01.279 injuries keep piling up. So it's just it makes sero 0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:03.039 sense to me. And on the other hand, But on 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:06.839 the other hand, I would say I do trust a 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:13.400 lot on the whole player acquisition, player evaluation Will McClain 0:07:13.400 --> 0:07:16.320 and his group and everything that they've done when acquiring 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:21.360 talent they have history has shown that they've done enough 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:24.120 to back up a lot of the reasonings as to 0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:28.040 them bring whoever they want to bring. So there is 0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:30.400 that benefit of the doubt, like they know what they're 0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:33.560 doing in that sense, But looking at everything that we've 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:37.040 been following this season, it really makes no sense either. 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:39.840 Yeah, I'm not going to put too much stock a 0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:43.960 hype into it. You know, it's a name that was 0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:47.560 big in his prime or his best days with Pittsburgh. 0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:50.160 I get that, but we're far removed from that, he's 0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:51.440 not had a lot of time in the lead the 0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:54.960 past several years. He's over the you know, event horizon 0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:57.840 of being thirty. He's going to the practice squad, not 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:00.680 the active roster. You don't really need a body there, 0:08:00.800 --> 0:08:03.320 so it's kind of a luxury item. So I mean, 0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:05.600 just just calling it what it is, I'm not it's 0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:07.600 not moving my needle one way or another. If it 0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:09.560 works out, I'm interested to see what they would do 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:12.800 with that. If it doesn't, you know, life goes on. 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.679 I think the quay the practice squad rules are now 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:19.280 with the way you're able to add veteran players. It's 0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:21.680 to me if if you're really interested in a guy, 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:24.480 that's not a problem at all. I mean you could 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:26.760 work on the Yeah, it's not going to cost you 0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:30.040 really any money, veteran minimum money probably you maybe even 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:32.120 practice squad money right now. If you have a deal, 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:34.880 we just elevate him. But you know, yeah, you keep 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:36.920 him on the practice squad. He goes out there, say 0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:40.000 he does sign here, I think there's another team interesting Tennessee. 0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:42.280 If he doesn't sign here, I think he's going to 0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:45.520 go on to Tennessee and work out for them. So yeah, 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:49.000 So you know, there's there's if it was trying to 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:50.920 put a guy on the fifty three and having to 0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:53.240 move on from So I think that's your story. I 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:55.600 think right now it's well, let's see if the guy 0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:58.120 could practice. Does he look like this guy's six ' four, 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:01.040 two hundred and ten pounds and he's a big guy. 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:04.960 So there might be something that at thirty one years old, 0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:08.040 halfway through the season, maybe the guy's kept himself in 0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:09.080 incredible shape. 0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:09.640 You know. 0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:13.800 Maybe somebody a lot of times too, these could be 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:18.120 word of mouth thinks, you know, and maybe you're maybe 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:20.959 Will is talking to another team or talking to another 0:09:20.960 --> 0:09:23.160 guy and like, hey, have you have you done any 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:26.040 work on this Bryant? You know, I've got some tape 0:09:26.080 --> 0:09:28.640 on him. I've seen some workouts. Or maybe an agent 0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:32.880 called up Jerry, or called up called up Steven, called 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:35.440 up Mike McCarthy, you know, and said, hey, have you 0:09:35.440 --> 0:09:38.280 guys taken a look at this this this Brian. He 0:09:38.320 --> 0:09:40.000 looks like he's a you know, he looks like he's 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:41.600 in shape. You might want to bring him in just 0:09:41.640 --> 0:09:44.440 to see. And that's how it happens a lot of 0:09:44.480 --> 0:09:47.560 the times. It might not be for a reason other 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:52.439 than that somebody that you trust as an evaluator has. 0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:54.959 Given you a tip to take a look at this guy. 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:57.439 And that's the thing, Like, it doesn't necessary. I get 0:09:57.480 --> 0:09:59.480 your point, Amber, Like there are other positions that are 0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:02.160 probably more important, but I do think it also it's 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.040 a matter of what's available at the time. Like there 0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:06.920 may not be offensive line probably are not offensive linemen 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.000 that are just out there right now for you to 0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:11.640 really look at every team a strapped for offensive lineman. 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:12.839 Right, but there may be. 0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:16.200 Again, this opportunity just presents itself, and this is a 0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:18.440 guy that's like, let's just take a look and see 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:21.160 and if he actually happens, actually it turns out to 0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:23.160 be a guy that even you can use on your 0:10:23.160 --> 0:10:26.240 practice squad to present what you need to looks for 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:27.160 other teams play. 0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:31.360 Like you mentioned him looking maybe like a debo, right, if. 0:10:31.280 --> 0:10:33.400 He has some of that ability, and if you got 0:10:33.440 --> 0:10:35.280 to play San Francisco in the playoffs, it's a great 0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:36.920 guy to be able through out there during practice to 0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:38.080 be able to show you that. 0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:40.559 Look, right, yeah, there are certain things you can get 0:10:40.559 --> 0:10:40.880 out of that. 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:42.760 Even if he never touches the field in a game 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:44.680 for the Cowboys, right, yeah, agree. 0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:46.920 You know it's funny. You know, there was a time 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:49.200 in my life. There was a time in my life 0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:52.320 where I always believe that, you know, you carried extra 0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:56.840 linemen and all that. This past trading deadline proved my 0:10:57.080 --> 0:11:02.880 point wrong because Minnesota aided a starting offensive lineman to Jacksonville. 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:05.120 And anytime you say. 0:11:05.600 --> 0:11:08.280 Go long at go along at defensive line, go long 0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:11.720 at offense, it's hard to find these guys teams. You know, 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:13.760 we found the team that was willing to trade. It's 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:17.280 very very rare. And Minnesota did it before they were 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:20.280 starting this little run that they're on right now. They'd 0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:22.720 won like two games in a row, and then at 0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:26.160 the trading deadline they trade one of their young starting 0:11:26.240 --> 0:11:31.560 linemen to Jacksonville, another playoff team. So, man, you know 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:34.160 that's any time you ever hear me say, well, you 0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:37.280 know you're never gonna find it. That's bs because people 0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:41.080 will if you give somebody the right amount of trade compensation. 0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:43.319 And I'm trying to make it to Ambar's point, if 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:44.960 you want to go out there and to trade online, 0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:46.960 they wanted to go find an offensive lineman. 0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:49.679 They could have gone and found an offensive lineman. 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:50.480 Give up something for it. 0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:51.760 You got to give up something for it. 0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:54.320 Where's Where's like a time in my life where I 0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:56.840 never believe that was ever gonna happen, and for a 0:11:56.840 --> 0:11:59.600 long time it didn't. But in this day and age, 0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:03.559 there's two things I've learned. Your starting quarterback can be moved. 0:12:04.000 --> 0:12:07.800 That when you can cut an Aaron Rodgers, you've proven 0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:10.400 to me that you can go and get a quarterback. 0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:13.640 Or someone's always willing to move on from their starting quarterback. 0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:15.600 It used to be not that way. They'd keep those. 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:17.880 Guys and contracts would run out if there were no 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:21.160 good But now people trade for quarterbacks and they move 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:24.280 on from quarterbacks and elite type quarterbacks. 0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:25.960 All right, we're gonna take our first break. 0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:27.720 When we come back, We're gonna talk a little bit 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:31.240 about the NFL, particularly the NFC.

Okay, I'm sorry. 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:12.480 Yeah, they're leading their division. 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:14.320 Selective listening right now as we speak. 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:18.760 Philadelphia, San Francisco, Detroit, Dallas, Seattle, Minnesota, New Orleans. 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:20.960 Wait, that was your order, That was my order.

You already 0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:25.400 had this written now, you had yell doing this on 0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:25.920 the show later. 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:26.880 No, no, no, no way. 0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:29.800 I just took advantage of when everybody was talking to 0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:37.359 look at these teams. Uh, Philadelphia, Yeah, San Francisco got it, Detroit, Dallas, Seattle, 0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:40.440 Minnesota on a heater right now? 0:16:40.800 --> 0:16:41.520 And New Orleans. 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:43.280 The interesting thing interesting? 0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:43.680 I like that. 0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:46.880 The interesting thing to stand out there is Detroit third. 0:16:47.040 --> 0:16:50.280 That was interesting. Yeah, and then also, uh, you got 0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:52.880 New Orleans behind Minnesota? 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:54.360 No, did you get I have Minnesota. 0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:56.120 I have Minnesota ahead of New Orleans. 0:16:56.240 --> 0:16:58.680 Right, that's also kind of interesting because Minnesota doesn't have 0:16:58.680 --> 0:16:59.960 their quarterback, but they got Josh Job. 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:01.520 Now they're playing the Cowboy. 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:02.880 They're playing great right now. 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.840 I mean, but if you're talking, if you're talking about yeah, 0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:06.840 you'll probably see them. 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:07.280 In the playoffs. 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:09.480 Ye right, No, that dude, man, I don't know. I 0:17:09.520 --> 0:17:10.399 don't even know what to think of. 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:13.080 But they're they're playing, they're playing really well. I mean, 0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:15.360 if you look at what they're doing defensively, they're finding ways. 0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:18.600 They're playing without their their leading wide receiver too in 0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:21.800 that game of these games, so it's crazy they figured 0:17:21.800 --> 0:17:22.960 some things out up there. 0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:23.720 And traded their guard. 0:17:23.840 --> 0:17:26.560 Like I mean, it's it's like they went from being 0:17:26.680 --> 0:17:28.760 like give up mode to like, well, maybe we can 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:31.399 find a way to win the NFC North. Yeah, you know, 0:17:31.480 --> 0:17:35.280 but I think I think Detroit is really I don't 0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:39.119 think Detroit gets nearly enough credit for me. I I 0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:42.560
