Speaker 2: what this offseason is going to be?

20
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,839
Speaker 4: Just yet? Man? Almost like a show tried to warn

21
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 4: you at some point, would show it was.

22
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 5: At some point. Yeah, talking cap last week, That's what

23
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 5: it was. But uh yeah, I mean like salary cap

24
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 5: or is that lies open for interpretation for interpretation as.

25
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 4: The kids say no cap these days, right, John, Yeah.

26
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 6: That's what I try and say, try to say no cap, cringe, cringe.

27
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 7: I have some others. I'm just not gonna say.

28
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 4: I like my friend, I kind of want to keep

29
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 4: them rolling.

30
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 7: There's just a certain age you shouldn't be saying this anymore.

31
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 4: But yeah, Isaiah, it's about what I we.

32
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 8: I think what I assumed it would be. I'm not surprised.

33
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 8: We talked about disappointment versus frustration, and.

34
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 4: It is what it is.

35
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 9: Man.

36
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 4: I mean, they don't have any money. We know they're

37
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 4: cash strap.

38
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,119
Speaker 8: They have I don't believe that they're willing to sacrifice

39
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 8: the potential to re sign Ceedee Lamb or Micah Parsons

40
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 8: by bringing on somebody to carry them or help them

41
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 8: this season. That's just that's where I believe that this

42
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 8: organization is at right now. I think those two individuals

43
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 8: are taking priority over the best positioning for the team

44
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 8: this year. And I just think that's the situation that

45
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 8: they're in. That doesn't probably sound good to most I

46
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 8: would assume that's my opinion, but that's really when you

47
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 8: dig deep, that's really what's at the root of this

48
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 8: situation that they find themselves in, they are unwilling to

49
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 8: compromise the potential of resigning those two individuals in the future.

50
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 6: It's those two, but I also think it's the quarterback position,

51
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 6: so that that's dak or if they were to somehow

52
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 6: go in another direction. I don't see them not spending

53
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 6: on the quarterback position, regardless of who's playing it. So

54
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 6: I would say, yeah, those three. But out of everybody

55
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 6: that's signed with other teams out of their free agents,

56
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 6: Tyron Smith is the only one that when you look

57
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 6: at the deal that they sign, that makes you go, man,

58
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 6: that would have been really nice to have. A lot

59
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 6: of the other ones I can move on from, but

60
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,119
Speaker 6: the Tyron Smith seeing that one, seeing how it's six

61
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 6: point five million guaranteed, the incentives can take it up

62
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 6: to twenty million, but that's he'd have to reach a lot.

63
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 6: But if you factor in a lot of the incentives

64
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 6: in his contract are playtime percentages, and from what I

65
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 6: read on it, it looked like basically like last year's contract,

66
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 6: if he was playing under that one that he has

67
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 6: right now, he probably have made about thirteen million because

68
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 6: he played over seventy percent of the snaps and so

69
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 6: I think they paid him about nine ten million last year,

70
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 6: so it would be an increase off of last year.

71
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 6: So I mean, if Tyroann could stay healthy for a

72
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 6: second consecutive year, if they can work out a similar

73
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 6: plan in New York, then yeah, that works out for Tyron.

74
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 6: But yeah, if Tyrone stays healthy, that'll be one throughout

75
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 6: the season that will look back on to be like,

76
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 6: but all the other ones, I don't those those are

77
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 6: all guys that thought would be gone anyway.

78
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, we could look at these free agents

79
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 5: that have departed. Let's see Dorn's Armstrong and the Commanders,

80
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 5: Tony Poller to the Titans. I think those happened around

81
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 5: when we had our show last week. Tyler Biadis to

82
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 5: the Commanders, Dante Fowlers to the Commanders, Neville Gallimore to

83
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 5: the Dolphins, Which that was just that was surprising that

84
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 5: he came off the board so early and that he

85
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 5: landed at a spot like that, Tyron Smith to the Jets.

86
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 5: And then the ones that have been retained Jordan Lewis, C. J. Goodwin,

87
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 5: Trentzig and Rico Dowdell and the one outside signing, Eric Kendricks,

88
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 5: so yeah, when the Kendricks news came down last week,

89
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 5: I think it makes a lot of sense. And as

90
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 5: I looked more into Kendricks, I was like, man, this

91
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 5: one just kind of flew right beneath my nose. It

92
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 5: felt like, because he's a Zimmer guy, it makes sense

93
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 5: him being a free agent being released by the Chargers

94
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 5: a couple of weeks ago. It would make him make

95
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 5: sense with him to reunite with Zim. So you know,

96
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 5: Zever made that phone call pull them away from the

97
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 5: forty nine ers, and I think the Cowboys have at

98
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 5: least a reliable body in that second level. Is he

99
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 5: on the back half of his career. Absolutely, but I

100
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 5: think you look at his health as durability that he's

101
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 5: been able to stay on the field over the course

102
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 5: of his nine seasons. If he can keep that going

103
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 5: into twenty twenty four, that'll only help that second level

104
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 5: for sure.

105
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 2: And I think the thing about Kendricks too, And we'll

106
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 2: get more into this as we go along.

107
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 4: I kind of want to talk a little bit more

108
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 4: about that in the final segment.

109
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 2: But it's that that veteran presence at linebacker that you've

110
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 2: been missing whenever it was Dumont Clark, and it was

111
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 2: Marquise Bell and now without Leyton Vanderischispoell, which we'll get

112
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 2: into in the second.

113
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 4: Segment having him back in the building.

114
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 2: Maybe not the best x's and o's guy at thirty

115
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 2: two years old and working into a double digit NFL seasons,

116
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 2: but still a guy that you can rely on to

117
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 2: bring insight, to bring veteran a mindset into that locker room,

118
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 2: and help out possibly some young guys through the draft

119
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 2: in April as well. So definitely something to look forward to.

120
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 2: I want to talk about those two in the second

121
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 2: and third segments. But John, you brought up how this

122
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 2: isn't necessarily surprising and you go down the list and

123
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 2: you're losing starters. I mean, you look at it, Dorence

124
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Tyler Biattish, Tony Pollard, all these guys that

125
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 2: are starters, Tyron Smith, which one hurts the most? Because

126
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 2: I'm looking at it, I'm saying, Okay, none of these

127
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,239
Speaker 2: moves necessarily surprise me based off of what was said

128
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 2: going into the off season, But which one hurts the

129
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 2: most and which one's gonna be toughest to replace?

130
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 4: Tyron? Why is that?

131
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 8: I think Tyron hurts the most, not only from the

132
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 8: leadership perspective, but I think from just.

133
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 4: The Do you think he was a leader in the

134
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 4: locker room? I think he was a leader in the field.

135
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 8: Okay, I think when he steps on the field, you

136
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 8: don't worry about what's going on where, you know, with

137
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 8: his responsibility.

138
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, so, I mean, yeah, I believe so in that regard.

139
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 8: Only concern that you ever had about Tyrone was his availability,

140
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 8: which is huge. But when he was available, there was

141
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 8: never a question about his performance. So I think that's

142
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 8: going to be hard to feel because not only that,

143
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 8: but the fact that Tyler Biada's got plucked. I think

144
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 8: we all kind of assumed that he would move on, however,

145
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 8: but you didn't expect Tyron to move on. So now

146
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 8: that you have two voids out of your five on

147
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 8: your offensive line, that doesn't leave you with solid a

148
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 8: solid intestinal track.

149
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 4: That leaves you with the but the bubbleas bubble.

150
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 8: So you know, no feeling, no cap and you know, I,

151
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 8: like I said originally, when coach Zimmer first got hired

152
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 8: back here with the Dallas Cowboys, He's going to want

153
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 8: his guys and his type of guys, and you have

154
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 8: to give him that free reign to acquire his type

155
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 8: of guys. Eric Kendrick obviously is a big acquisition for him,

156
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 8: but he's going to have to feel the voice that

157
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 8: he sees fit on that side of the ball because

158
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 8: he's the new acquisition as a defensive coordinator now for

159
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 8: the Dallas Cowboys, So you have to give him the

160
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:57,679
Speaker 8: ability to fill.

161
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 4: The roster that he sees fit.

162
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 8: Wow, still feeling voice that you have on the offense

163
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 8: side of the ball at the office line position and

164
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 8: the running back position.

165
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 6: I don't think there's any question its Tyron Smith. And

166
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 6: the reason I believe that is because going through the

167
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 6: roster for something I'm working on tomorrow with the athletic is,

168
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 6: I got nine spots that they need to fill right now,

169
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 6: and about four or five of those are starters, and

170
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 6: tyront Is certainly that left tackle spot is one of them.

171
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 6: You know, I look at running back, I look at center,

172
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 6: I look at possibly that number three corner, Depending on

173
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 6: where you are with Jordan Lewis and how Trayvon Diggs

174
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 6: comes back, you might need a third another starting CALIBERT

175
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 6: corner there, and then defensive tackle is another one where

176
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,319
Speaker 6: you don't have Hankins, is Mazzi ready for that spot?

177
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,079
Speaker 6: You might need a starter there, But outside of that,

178
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 6: I just keep going back to the offensive line because

179
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 6: you clearly need three starters still that aren't on this team.

180
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 6: And to me, that's the running back position, left tackle,

181
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 6: and center. And so if you had Tyron Smith, let's

182
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 6: say they were signed into a similar deal, then you're

183
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 6: going in this draft being like, yeah, you got to

184
00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 6: find an interior offensive lineman. Maybe hey, maybe you still

185
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 6: take a tackle at twenty four, and then you got

186
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 6: to fill that running back thing. But now you look

187
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 6: at it, you're like, you have to find a defense

188
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 6: or an offensive tackle because and let's be honest, this

189
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 6: isn't just a Tyron Smith thing.

190
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 7: This is because you.

191
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 6: Know, a Josh Ball, a Mett will let's go aren't

192
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 6: where you would hope they would be, you know, awesome Richards.

193
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 6: So I almost feel like you have to add a

194
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 6: left tackle or a really good guard that pushes Tyler

195
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 6: Smith out to left tackle, and then one of those

196
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,439
Speaker 6: will let's go Ball Richards. They have to at the

197
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 6: very least one of those has to be your swing

198
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 6: tackle at.

199
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 7: Least, so again they've.

200
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 8: They've done their due diligence in terms of trying to

201
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 8: invest in that position. It's not like they're just like,

202
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 8: uh oh, we gotta fell this void. Like they've been trying.

203
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 8: These guys just have not been ready to step up yet. Well,

204
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 8: and they're taking dark shots at a board, is what

205
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 8: they're doing.

206
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 2: I mean, they're using a fifth round pick on Josh Ball,

207
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,439
Speaker 2: They're using a fifth round pick on Matt will Let's go.

208
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 2: They're using a fifth round pick on Awesome Richards. I

209
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 2: mean they're using these Day three selections to just throw

210
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 2: a dart and see if it hits, and it hasn't necessarily.

211
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 6: Hit, and hey, to be fair to them, it does

212
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 6: look like they found something with TJ. Bass who was

213
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 6: undrafted and Terreen Steele who was undrafted. So it's it's

214
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:07,839
Speaker 6: kind of like almost the Calvin Joseph thing with me,

215
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 6: where it's like, yes, Calvin Joseph, you missed on but

216
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 6: you also found dron Bland. So it's not like it's

217
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 6: not all doom and gloom, but I can see where

218
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 6: there would still be you know, critsism.

219
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 2: And the one time that they've invested in the tackle

220
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 2: spots specifically even without Tyrone Smith at his availability being

221
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 2: in question.

222
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 4: With Tyler Smith saying that he's going to be the

223
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 4: left tackle of the future.

224
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 2: The only thing that changes out of that is the

225
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 2: fact that Tyler Smith is now a badass left guard

226
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 2: and you don't necessarily want to move him as an

227
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 2: all pro with the left guard spot, so you.

228
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 4: Don't necessarily want to bump him out of that position.

229
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 4: I have questions in regards to interior defensive line.

230
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,839
Speaker 8: Okay, with the acquisition of the hiring of Mike Zimbra

231
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 8: as a divisit quarter and coordinator. Now Freddy Cowboys, how

232
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 8: much of a role do you think he plays and

233
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 8: the reason why Jonathan Hankins has not been resigned yet.

234
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 5: I don't think. I don't think that's a major role,

235
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 5: because Hankins knows that there's a spot there for him

236
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 5: to walk into our next season if you were to

237
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 5: come back to the Cowboys. I think that's I think

238
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 5: that's assumed.

239
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 6: It's interesting you say that because I think of Curse

240
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 6: a little bit jeering and curse only because of the

241
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 6: fact that Mike Zimmer was the coach when the Vikings

242
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 6: drafted him. Mike Zimmer was his coach those first four years.

243
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 6: Now I will say, I do think that there's some

244
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 6: good depth a safety, so maybe that's different. But there's

245
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 6: also a part of me that thinks that with the

246
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 6: Hankins thing, they could be trying to be a little

247
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 6: cheap there, you know, Like you see, all these deals

248
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 6: are all one year deals, and maybe Hankins is kind

249
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 6: of holding out. He's in a position like I can

250
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 6: get a one year deal in a couple different places.

251
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 6: Let me just kind of wait this thing out. Whatever,

252
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 6: Let's see if my number goes up, because you guys

253
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 6: clearly need me, you know, So it could be.

254
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 7: A combination of those.

255
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,199
Speaker 6: The Zimmer thing could be interesting too, But whatever way

256
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 6: it is, I feel like they need two defensive taxes.

257
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 4: They need to. So that's what I'm saying.

258
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,599
Speaker 8: As you start going through this and free agency continues

259
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 8: on and the big names are gone, right, primarily that

260
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 8: most of the big names are gone, the impact names.

261
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 8: I guess you would say out of the free agent

262
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 8: pool that at the beginning of the of this period,

263
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 8: most of those guys are gone. There's needs there aren't

264
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 8: once there are legit needs for the Dallas Cowboys, and

265
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 8: I think that's one of the frustrations for a lot

266
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 8: of Cowboys fans right now is the guys you talk

267
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 8: about all in they redefined it right and.

268
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 4: They said that.

269
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 8: You know, Stephen Jones mentioned the ability to resign your guys. Well,

270
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 8: Jonathan Hankins is a necessity. I think that was the

271
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 8: first name that we all mentioned that needs to come back.

272
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 8: I'm glad they got Jay Lou back. That's awesome, right,

273
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 8: I know we didn't mention that yet, but that's huge

274
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,199
Speaker 8: for them. He bought out last year, so kudos to him.

275
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,439
Speaker 8: They got good wing back. That was huge because he's

276
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,839
Speaker 8: a special teamer. They lost Dori's armstrong. You know, so

277
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 8: you lose one special teamer, but you resigned another. But

278
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 8: you need Hankins back. And not only do you need Hankins,

279
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 8: you need somebody to play next to Hankins while Mazie

280
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 8: still develops because he's not ready unless he put his

281
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 8: weight back on it, his mindset is ready to go

282
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:49,199
Speaker 8: be an impact player this year.

283
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 4: So you need Hankins to.

284
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 8: Be resigned and you need another defense alignment that seemingly,

285
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 8: at least in a free agent pool, most of those

286
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 8: guys are gone.

287
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, it'd be a Day two drive you draft pick.

288
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:05,079
Speaker 6: But then if for for Chouncy Golsli Fojoko filling in

289
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 6: there at all, that's what they were drafted for.

290
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 4: Not big enough. Okay, especially Zimmer goes back to the edge.

291
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 5: I think a three or five tech.

292
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hooko could be pushed into the three spot. He

293
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 2: won't be a one tech. But I think I think

294
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 2: Golston needs to drop the weight that they put on him.

295
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 2: And they got too cute trying to fit him into

296
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 2: avoid they need to put them.

297
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 4: But that's what I'm saying.

298
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 8: Like, when I think about what has to happen with

299
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 8: this roster, especially defensively, I go back to the Zimmer

300
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 8: defenses of the past, right, the Zimmer defenses that I

301
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 8: played against, and I think about how the interior defensive

302
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,559
Speaker 8: linemen were always ginormous. They were always ginormous because the

303
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 8: linebackers were able to run free. We've talked about this,

304
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 8: you know, a ridiculous amount in terms of big defense alignment,

305
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 8: not allowing office alignment to work up to the second

306
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:49,359
Speaker 8: level and your linebackers.

307
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:55,199
Speaker 4: Backwards. You don't have that. You don't have one. You

308
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 4: don't currently on this roster. You don't have one. The

309
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,599
Speaker 4: next biggest guy you had was Gallimore, He's gone and

310
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 4: don't be signed.

311
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 2: Carlos Watkins or whatever is carl Davis Davis, dang it, Carlos.

312
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 4: Knew So it made exactly. But you know what I'm saying.

313
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 8: What I'm saying like, there are voids that not only

314
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 8: have to be filed, but they have to be filled

315
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 8: according to what he wants, and there's just not a

316
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 8: huge pool of it.

317
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 6: And another thing is when you say defensive tackle, it's

318
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 6: it's not common for a defensive tackle to come out

319
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 6: of college and come in and dominate, especially in that

320
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 6: role that you're talking about, the big guy that eats

321
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 6: it up in the middle. Whereas like you can see

322
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 6: like a left tackle, especially one of these high first

323
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 6: round picks having some success immediately, you can see a

324
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 6: running back that you take in the second third round

325
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 6: coming in having some success.

326
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 7: Media defensive tackle is not like that at all.

327
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 6: So to your point, it's like you need to Hankins

328
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 6: obviously would feel one of them, but you'd almost want

329
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 6: to see them get two better ends.

330
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 8: Absolutely, So I mean, you got two interior divids alignment,

331
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 8: you got left tackle, you have a center, you need

332
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 8: a running back. Like draft picks are going off if

333
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 8: this is where you're going to acquire them, because free

334
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 8: agency looks pretty bleak right now, right, Yeah, If that's

335
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 8: where you're gonna acquire them, you're running out of picks

336
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 8: and you got to hit on all of them, and

337
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 8: you have to hit on all of them because last

338
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 8: year's draft didn't make hardly any contributions. Yeah, right, And

339
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 8: that is the reality that they find themselves in right now.

340
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 8: And I think that's why most fans have the bubble

341
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 8: gups right now in regards to the Cowboys and their

342
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 8: roster and what they're doing. Obviously restructuring Deak and I'm

343
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 8: sure we're talking about that gives them a little bit

344
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 8: of space right now. I think that's more a little

345
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 8: bit gainsmanship going on right now between the two parties.

346
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 8: But I'm not confident right now that they're in a

347
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 8: position to fill all their voids with the draft and

348
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 8: the remaining free agency pool. I just think there's gonna

349
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 8: be some voids that they're hoping on instead of knowing.

350
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I think there's also a level of expectation

351
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 5: of certain guys stepping up. We talked about the offensive

352
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 5: line with Matt will Let's go Josh Ball, guys like that.

353
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 5: I mean, there's gonna be a huge opportunity for them.

354
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 5: But you look at the running back position, Duce Vaughan,

355
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 5: there's an opportunity for him, Hunter Lucky to be able

356
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 5: to take some shorty yards stuffhere go doubt. Oh hey man,

357
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 5: you're the leading returning rusher. Now you're gonna have to

358
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 5: be able to step into a role. Whether there's a

359
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 5: rookie or a veteran that comes in with him in

360
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 5: that room or not. If it's a tackle position, that's

361
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 5: a little bit different because all those bodies are gone.

362
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 5: It's basically just Mazzie Smith and Carl Davis at this point.

363
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 5: So you've got to be able to fill some fill

364
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 5: some spots there. But yeah, elsewhere, I think they're hoping

365
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 5: that there is some there's some uh, there's some certain

366
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 5: level of stepping up that that that those rooms need.

367
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 5: We talked about the offensive line. I think that's probably

368
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 5: most important because well, let's go has been hurt. Josh

369
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 5: Ball was hurt all last year. Awesome Richards. He didn't

370
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 5: touch the field at all, even though he was on

371
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 5: the fifty three. So there's got to be some sort

372
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 5: of stepping up with one of those three guys. I

373
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 5: think that there's an expectation of that before.

374
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 4: You move on percentage that Connor Williams comes back and

375
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 4: snaps the ball.

376
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 10: H twelve percent Yeah, going like seven zero yeah, thanks, thanks, thanks,

377
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 10: Beamer says zero.

378
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 2: Uh man. It just feels like it's one of those

379
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 2: off seasons where hope is a strategy, and hope should

380
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 2: not be a strategy because you're hoping these guys step up.

381
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: You're hoping that teams are going to let these guys

382
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 2: in free agency, let the contracts go down and then

383
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 2: you can afford them. And you got to I mean, John,

384
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 2: you were talking about Jonathan Hankins trying to get a

385
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 2: bigger chunk of the cash. His cash hasn't been big

386
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 2: to begin with. Twenty twenty one, he was one point seven.

387
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 2: He played on the veteran minimum in both twenty twenty

388
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 2: two and twenty twenty three with the Cowboys, so he

389
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 2: may want a significant chunk above that. But I mean

390
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 2: we're talking about probably five hundred k, right, I mean,

391
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 2: he probably isn't going to get to two million. He's

392
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 2: probably gonna be right around that one point six to

393
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 2: one point seven Mark again, and.

394
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 7: That seems worth it to me because, like I said, man,

395
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:44,719
Speaker 7: it's just I would do that right now.

396
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 4: It's a veteran not my money though, right it's not

397
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 4: my money.

398
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 6: It's it's a veteran player who plays a position that

399
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 6: young guys generally don't come in and dominate right away.

400
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 6: So it'd be one thing if the Cowboys were sitting

401
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 6: in a position where they're offense of line was in

402
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 6: good shape, running back was in good shape, and you're

403
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,479
Speaker 6: just like, well, yeah, this just looks like they're going

404
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 6: to take like Devendre Sweat or whatever.

405
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 7: I think, say his name and yeah, like a big

406
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 7: guy like that. I TEXTA. But now you're just like, they.

407
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 6: Can't even take him in the first round. They like, literally,

408
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 6: they can't do anything but offensive line in the first round.

409
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 7: I can't.

410
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 6: I can't even imagine them doing anything but offensive line

411
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 6: in the first round. And that's generally not been good

412
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 6: for the Cowboys when they have to take a position.

413
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 2: Luckily it is offensive line, and they've been better at

414
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:27,199
Speaker 2: drafting that position.

415
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 5: That's in fact, I think overall Hank It's did mention

416
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 5: on his podcast. I think it was a couple of

417
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 5: weeks after they had lost the Packers, that he felt

418
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 5: like he deserved more money wise, but that he wanted

419
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 5: to be back here in this building. So we'll see

420
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 5: how that kind of comes to fruition over the course

421
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 5: of the next week or so. I know, I think

422
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 5: Seattle is an interesting spot for him. Him and Aiden

423
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 5: Dirty did get close. Washington is an interesting spot. But

424
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,439
Speaker 5: if I if I were expect him to land anywhere else,

425
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 5: it'd be Seattle.

426
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 4: Come on, now, Jonathan, let's let's talk this through. Let's

427
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 4: talk to now. Let's make something happen which sit next

428
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 4: to Big Leonard. That'd be interesting. It makes sense.

429
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, that does all right. When we come back, we're

430
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 2: gonna talk about the Dak extension. We're also gonna talk

431
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 2: about Layton vander Esh and what he meant to this

432
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 2: franchise is he pins his emotional retirement letter to the

433
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys and makes it official. We're gonna talk about

434
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 2: what he meant and how tough it is going to

435
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,360
Speaker 2: be to replace Layton vander Esh when we come back

436
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 2: with more talking Cowboys.

437
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 11: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

438
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 11: Cheetah Savannah. Todd believed the Big cat repellent he bought

439
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 11: online was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be

440
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 11: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

441
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 11: But the good news is Todd has AT and T

442
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 11: five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he

443
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 11: learned the best thing to do is stop running and

444
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 11: toss her the backpack with the beef stew at and

445
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 11: T five G.

446
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 4: Fast, reliable, secure, It's not complicated.

Speaker 2: talking through the Cowboys offseason.

500
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 4: They did make a move to adjust some cap space. Yeah,

501
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 4: nothing crazy, don't get too excited.

502
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 2: Cowboys restructure Dak Prescott converted Prescott's five million dollar roster

503
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,120
Speaker 2: bonus into a signing bonus, added two more avoidable years,

504
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 2: which is something that the quarterback had to agree on.

505
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 2: That move fred to four million dollars in cap space

506
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 2: this year, knocking its cap hit down to fifty five

507
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 2: point four million next year.

508
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 4: However, that four.

509
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 2: Million dollars doesn't go away, moves to next year's dead

510
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 2: cap money, which is now over forty million already in

511
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five just.

512
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 4: On Prescott's contract alone.

513
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 5: So yeah, yeah, twenty twenty five is looking very bleak

514
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 5: as far as the dead cap. It's y'all think this

515
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 5: offseason is bad, wait until next off season.

516
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 4: But I I it's part of this off season just

517
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 4: buffer for that off season, you.

518
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 5: Could say so, But also it's about fielding a roster.

519
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 5: You're also wanting to field a roster for twenty twenty five,

520
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 5: So yeah, I understand that to a certain extent. But

521
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 5: also you look at freeing up four million dollars, right,

522
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 5: that probably pushes the a cap availability to eight or so.

523
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 5: They'll need roughly fifteen to work with during the season,

524
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 5: so I mean.

525
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 4: There's still space. You gotta have eleven for your draft

526
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 4: class too.

527
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean draft class coming in mid season, mid

528
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 5: season additions, injuries, you got to be able to account

529
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 5: for all of that. So they still have a lot

530
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 5: of work to do before they can really put their

531
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,640
Speaker 5: put their hand in the sand and get some guys out.

532
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 6: That's what you gotta be careful about the whole Like

533
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 6: we'll just restructure this contract and restructure that contract. Well,

534
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,880
Speaker 6: it's not like you don't have to pay that eventually somewhere,

535
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,880
Speaker 6: you know. And so that's the thing, like it makes

536
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 6: sense for like, you know, if you get a deal

537
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,640
Speaker 6: done with CD, you know that that totally makes sense.

538
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 6: And Micah Parsons obviously for a while there when they

539
00:23:58,680 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 6: had Romo, they were doing that all the time.

540
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 7: With Dax contract, they're doing that all the time, and

541
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 7: that's fine.

542
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 6: But if you don't know if that player is going

543
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 6: to be a big part of your future, it's it's

544
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 6: tough to just keep pushing it down the line like

545
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 6: that because you're eventually gonna have to it's eventually going

546
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 6: to count against your cap somewhere. So you know, I

547
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 6: know that there's gonna be people that maybe reading to

548
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 6: try to read between the lines of the whole Dak

549
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 6: thing that that just happened recently with that that four million,

550
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 6: But I don't think that for me, it doesn't change anything.

551
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 6: It doesn't make me think they're any closer any further

552
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 6: away than they were the day before they did it.

553
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 2: So seven point seven five million is what they've got

554
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 2: right now in terms of cap space. I mean that's

555
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 2: with with a draft class still to be signed, with

556
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 2: an entire offseason a free agency, that's nothing. So yeah,

557
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 2: my my next question would comes, what's what's the next move?

558
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:49,920
Speaker 2: Where do you move that money around? Where do you

559
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 2: find some space?

560
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's there's a few options. It's restructuring Dax Steel

561
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 5: as we that's sending him, that's the big one. But

562
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 5: restructuring Treywon Diggs coming off the injury, restructuring Terrence Steele

563
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 5: bringing up some cap space.

564
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 7: There, get a deal done with Ceedee Lamb.

565
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, getting that would make the most sense to me

566
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,239
Speaker 6: period because it's you already know where he's slotted at.

567
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 7: I mean, the way he's performed, there's no gray area anymore.

568
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,479
Speaker 4: But is he the one?

569
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 5: If you're CD, why do you do it now?

570
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 4: Though? That's the question.

571
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 5: I think that's probably where they run into some issues

572
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 5: because you're waiting on Jamar Chase, you're waiting on Justin Jefferson.

573
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 5: Mike Evans did just get his, but T Higgins also

574
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 5: still waiting on him.

575
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,199
Speaker 6: I find hard to believe that if you offered him

576
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 6: a deal right now to make him the highest paid player,

577
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 6: highest pay wide receiver in the league, knowing that those

578
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 6: two guys will jump him, I find it hard to

579
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 6: believe he would turn that down.

580
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 2: What would that take though, because his cap hit already

581
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 2: is seventeen point nine it's almost eighteen million.

582
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 4: It's nine thousand short.

583
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 2: Of that, so nearly eighteen million dollars of a cap

584
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 2: hit now, wouldn't it take more?

585
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 4: I mean, I know you can push it down the

586
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:49,479
Speaker 4: line again, but like that's what we're doing.

587
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, right here, we're just pushing.

588
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 4: We're trying not to kick the can anymore? Is ultimate?

589
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 7: With CD Lamb?

590
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,439
Speaker 6: I would do it because I look at him as

591
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 6: a player that you can build around. You'll play at

592
00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,400
Speaker 6: a high level for the next four or five years.

593
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 6: So I would fine with doing that with CD Lamb.

594
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, who's the highest paid wide receiver right now?

595
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 7: I think it's Tyreek Hill around thirty million a year.

596
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 4: Jesus, that's a lot. It's a lot of cash.

597
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:11,919
Speaker 5: I said for our receiver that one.

598
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 6: I mean, you say that, but the cap went up

599
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 6: thirty million per team. Sure, So like, let's actly, that's

600
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 6: an act like that's that Camp Boys a whole act

601
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 6: like that cap is exactly what these teams make like

602
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 6: they're not proffiting like four times that like absolutely the so.

603
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 4: Okay restructuring CD.

604
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,640
Speaker 2: He's your third biggest cap pit you talked about Treyvon

605
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 2: He's number five on the list at fifteen million.

606
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 4: Uh, Terrence Steele's number seven on the list at eleven million.

607
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 4: Even from that.

608
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 2: Point forward, there's not really a whole lot you can

609
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 2: do because everybody else is under ten million dollars of

610
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 2: a cap pit in twenty twenty five or twenty twenty four.

611
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 2: But there's not a whole lot of restructuring you can

612
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 2: do here. So is that kind of the issue that

613
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 2: this team is run into.

614
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's uh, it's the struggle why the front

615
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:57,879
Speaker 5: office hasn't been able to make the moves that they

616
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 5: probably wanted to make. You know, those are report last

617
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 5: week that they didn't even make a call to Dereck

618
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:02,640
Speaker 5: Henry and fans.

619
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 4: Were like, how can you do that?

620
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 5: Well, why you know, you know, why you're sitting there,

621
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 5: You're sitting there in third grade, like you know you

00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:23,359
Speaker 5: my bag's.

629
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:23,719
Speaker 4: Up a little bit.

630
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 7: I will say, though, that is the best.

631
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 8: Metaphor I think we've ever had to tell you guys

632
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 8: about the time I was in grade school and I

633
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,120
Speaker 8: went to a bathroom stall and Do walked up next

634
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 8: to me.

635
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 4: He had on Jordan's, so I'd start peeing on his

636
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 4: Jordan's you did?

637
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 10: What?

638
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 7: Why would you do that?

639
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 4: And why? Why was this? I was like in second grade.

640
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 4: My mom told me.

641
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,880
Speaker 8: I don't remember it, but my mom told me said

642
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 8: at the urinal and that was hate bro. We didn't

643
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 8: have no Jordan's. That was beer hate right there. And

644
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 8: you said jans Bro.

645
00:27:59,560 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 4: There that.

646
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 7: I didn't expect to.

647
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't remember it. That would be

648
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 4: immediate response. I would be done.

649
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 6: If you're that now adult that happened to you and

650
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 6: you're listening right now calling to the show.

651
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 4: You're definitely that's definitely a fight.

652
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 6: I will say though, the only the only issue I

653
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 6: have with your with your analogy is that there are

654
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 6: times where Sean camp Allen iverson Scheck to a certain

655
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 6: level made Reebok kind of cool for a little bit.

656
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, Rebox was probably bad.

657
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, but no, no, no, no, no, I.

658
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 6: Think it's good because I feel that same way about

659
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 6: the Cowboys, where I don't think these free agents look

660
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 6: at the Cowboys as like maybe they do the Chiefs

661
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 6: or a team that has played in the Super Bowl

662
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 6: the last few years, but there's still the Dallas Cowboys.

663
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 6: If those are the Reboks, people still want to wear them.

664
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 6: I'd at least make a call, make him turn you down,

665
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 6: make him say like, hey, just I don't know.

666
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 4: I understand that you want to say you wanted to

667
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:00,719
Speaker 4: be here.

668
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 6: I saw I heard the interview, and I understand you

669
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 6: don't want to insult him by giving him some low

670
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 6: ball offer.

671
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 4: But I don't know. I would don't know what you

672
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 4: don't know right exactly.

673
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 5: I probably would have made a phone call.

674
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 7: Yes, and I know you don't want to wear I

675
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 7: know you don't want to wear those.

676
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 8: It's like it's like when I went to the don't

677
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 8: even laugh. When I went to the WWE tryouts and

678
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 8: I went down there to go work out. Okay, it

679
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 8: was really work out for me. I had no intentions

680
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 8: on actually being.

681
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 13: In a w W.

682
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 4: It was just happened to this. By the way, I'm

683
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 4: just waiting for the day.

684
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 14: It was.

685
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 4: I can't release that, you can't come. I can't release

686
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 4: that information.

687
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 8: But afterwards they made me an offer, but like they

688
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 8: knew I wasn't going to accept the offer. Like they

689
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 8: came up to me, They're like, hey, like, we know

690
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 8: you're not going to take this, but like this is

691
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 8: how much we can offer you and that makes it

692
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 8: And I was like yeah, no, They're like, yeah, we

693
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 8: knew that was going to be the answer, but we

694
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 8: had to.

695
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, because they don't know that that that hasn't been

696
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 6: your your dream, your entire life to do that where

697
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 6: you're just like, yeah, that offered us suck, but I'll

698
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 6: take it right now because.

699
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's an opportunity and I think that I can.

700
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 7: I can make it in that world.

701
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 5: One thing I'll do make it better.

702
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 7: Of how different would your life be right now that

703
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 7: would I'd be wearing.

704
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 8: A lot of underwear you would be on this show

705
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 8: would be what would your intro so on be? Can

706
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 8: you tell us that it'd be something with some kind

707
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 8: of dog, probably.

708
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 7: So with your name somewhat dog related.

709
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 4: I don't remember the name. That's what dog is? That

00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 4: is cap that is cap it was dog was there

711
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 4: was something. It was something related to a dog.

712
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 5: A lot of cap space and a lot of.

713
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 4: Wish they had it.

714
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 7: I just got done watching The Iron Cloths. I'm really

715
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 7: really Texas.

716
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 6: I didn't Yeah, I didn't know a ton about the

717
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 6: von Erics until I moved down here, and so I

718
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 6: was watching that movie.

719
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 7: So when you said that, I'm like, I can see

720
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 7: I can see you doing that.

721
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 2: He also did the wipe out like no, all right,

722
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 2: so this cap space, you know, like wipe out space.

723
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 2: So the show on ABC he did, like the.

724
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 7: The off brand version of that show, like you can

725
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 7: you can you can sit there and be like, somewhat.

726
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 4: I've got it somewhere.

727
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 12: It is.

728
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 4: So why do you guys believe you.

729
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 6: Could be somewhat embarrassed or think it's cringey whatever, but

730
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 6: at the same time, like, it's good that you did it,

731
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 6: because you just never know what that kind of turned

732
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 6: into who knows? If you know, there's just so many

733
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 6: people that are so successful in the media world who

734
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 6: knew that they would get to the level they were.

735
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 4: I just found an interview for Isaiah the title and

736
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 4: it's right here. You can look it up. Everybody at home,

737
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 4: and Isaiah's stand back. Make the jump from the NFL

738
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 4: to the w w E. This is from the w

739
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 4: WE website. Should we take a look at this? I

740
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 4: don't know.

741
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 8: I mean right out of time when you go through

742
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 8: our second brank time, it's almost up here.

743
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 4: I do, all right.

744
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 5: There's something I've kind of thought about over the course

745
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 5: of the last week. I think it's are you trying

746
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 5: to make the jump to w w's Well, no, absolutely not.

747
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 5: I think the the Cowboys from an outside perspective, I've

748
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 5: always kind of had a built an advantage of the

749
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 5: fact that playing for the Cowboys brings you status. It

750
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 5: brings you a certain level of you know, fame, notoriety,

751
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 5: things of the nature. We see it with Dak and

752
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 5: all the endorsements that he's able to do, Tony Pollard

753
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 5: being able to do endorsements, and you know, so on

754
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 5: and so forth. Is there more flexibility there to pay

755
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,959
Speaker 5: a guy a certain amount knowing that that those opportunities

756
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 5: would come with you. Is that a conversation with the

757
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 5: agent or is it not anymore?

758
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 4: Just with the way media, it really depends on the player. Yeah,

759
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 4: it really depends on the say.

760
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 5: For Ah, for Derrick Henry, I truly believe.

761
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 4: I truly believe that Dereck Henry would have taken twenty

762
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 4: percent less to stay here. That's my belief. And I

763
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 4: don't know that. I don't have inside information on that.

764
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 2: But hearing if he would have, it's one thing to

765
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 2: afford twenty percent less of Derrick Henry's that point eight

766
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 2: million dollar deal, but.

767
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 7: Here in the immediately becomes one of the top five.

768
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 8: Absolutely, But hearing his interview, like he wanted to be here,

769
00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 8: He truly wanted to be here, and he was. He

770
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 8: wasnuinely disappointed that he didn't get the call because he

771
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 8: just bought a new house.

772
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 4: He lives here in the off season. He's I think

773
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 4: his wife is pregnant.

774
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 8: Like they have kids, Like he wanted to be here,

775
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 8: Like he's like at this point in my career, like

776
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 8: I really don't want to move again, but I'm really

777
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 8: happy to be a Baltimore Raven. Yeah, you know what

778
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 8: I'm saying. It was one of those deals where it's

779
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 8: like he wanted to be here in Dallas. So you

780
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 8: really don't know, to your point, if had they made

781
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 8: the call, you don't know what.

782
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 4: He would have went for. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that when

783
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 4: that one hurts a little bit. It really does.

784
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 2: Before we do take our second segment. By the way,

785
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 2: take the second break, Layton vander Esh No, I'm not going.

786
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 4: To pull up WW the first sentence.

787
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 2: Uh, Layton vander Esh retires from the NFL. Medically retires.

788
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 2: He pinned to an emotional letter. You can read the

789
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 2: whole thing on the Dallas Cowboys social media page. Uh

790
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 2: just wanted to wish our best to Layton. We had

791
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 2: talked about it initially about how the medical stuff at

792
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 2: some point it is nothing to mess around. And I

793
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 2: think this this was a decision that was a long

794
00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 2: time coming for late and I think some of the

795
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 2: building knew about pretty quickly after he sustained the injury

796
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 2: midway through the season.

797
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 4: But he will be missed in that locker room. He

798
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 4: was a presence.

799
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 2: I remember talking to Damoon Clark the week after he

800
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 2: was injured and seeing it. Really just hearing him talk

801
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 2: about what Layton did to that linebacker room and the

802
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 2: way he led that group of young individuals, and the

803
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 2: way he was still involved even post injury, staying in

804
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 2: there with x's and o's and film study and things

805
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 2: like that. It really did show the impact that Layton

806
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,360
Speaker 2: Vandersh had on this team. Plus Michael Parsons put it

807
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 2: out yesterday said, I don't think people realize how much

808
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 2: y'all are going to miss Layton vander Esh. One of

809
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 2: the hardest, most devoted, loving, authentic teammates you'll ever have.

810
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 2: A Cowboys Nation should be grateful, and he represented the

811
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,839
Speaker 2: Star well. I'm going to miss his passion and drive

812
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:46,879
Speaker 2: on the field, thank you. And he had a couple

813
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,359
Speaker 2: of Wolf emojis in there as well. So I wanted

814
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 2: to wish our best to Layton vander Esh as he

815
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 2: goes into retirement, whatever's next for him, and hopefully he

816
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 2: remains healthy as well.

817
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 5: And really quick. It is really really rare for a

818
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 5: player to come out of eight man football and be

819
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 5: a first round pick. Yes, like that never happens. That never,

820
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 5: especially in today's game. You see that in the seventies

821
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 5: and eighties, maybe, but you don't see that anymore. Walk

822
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 5: On at Boise State, played his played for his dream

823
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,320
Speaker 5: dream school, was on scholarship almost immediately, and became a

824
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,360
Speaker 5: first round pick, and it was a surefire first.

825
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 2: Round in his dream organization or what he calls his

826
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:24,320
Speaker 2: dream organization. So really cool seeing him overcome the odds

827
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 2: like that, and he played well when he was healthy.

828
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 4: Just one of those things where it's tough to stay

829
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 4: healthy in the NFL.

830
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 6: It's wild that that linebacker position, man, because you're just

831
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 6: kind of like, you thought for a little bit there

832
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 6: that they had it locked up with him and Jalen Smith.

833
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 6: You thought about it for a while there after they

834
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 6: drafted Sean Lee and just for some reason, the Cowboys

835
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 6: just have not been able to consistently hit at linebacker. So, yeah,

836
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:50,800
Speaker 6: it sucks because if he doesn't have that neck issue,

837
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 6: I mean just seeing him as rookie year, the way

838
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 6: he played, if he was able to keep that going,

839
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 6: he could have been one of the better linebackers.

840
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:56,919
Speaker 4: In the league.

841
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 6: But that neck thing, I mean, it was I'm pretty sure,

842
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 6: but yeah, is known as an issue going into the draft. Yeah,

843
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 6: but yeah, that's it's a pretty rough way to end

844
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 6: it because they certainly could have used him during the

845
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:08,479
Speaker 6: back half of this season.

846
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,320
Speaker 7: Who knows how things might have been different if he

847
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 7: doesn't get hurt.

848
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 2: He had some great moments too, he really did. He

849
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 2: had some big time stops, He had the wolf howls,

850
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 2: he had the opportunities to lead that defense, did a

851
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 2: lot of things well. But like you said, having that

852
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 2: that reoccurring neck issue, that's at some point you gotta

853
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 2: you gotta take a take a break from it. And

854
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 2: that's exactly what vandersch did.

855
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 5: Scored his first NFL touchdown his final NFL game or

856
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 5: final full NFL game.

857
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 4: That's cool.

858
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,520

859
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,759

939
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 8: and I get the roasted pecans.

940
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I get the roasted pecans every time.

941
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,320
Speaker 6: Every time he started with the chocolate milk, I was

942
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 6: just waiting for it to be like a bunch of

00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 6: just stuff that you can get it anywhere you like.

944
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,160

Speaker 8: your blush.

00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 7: Sugar and everything. Everything about that makes me think that

952
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 7: from that point forward, that car ride is just lit.

953
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,880

Speaker 8: other card manufacturers can charge on there now.

963
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 4: I'm going to a Ford dealership this week. By the way,

964
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 4: are you not for minivan? Yeah?

965
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 2: Still looking for either a minivan or a large suv

966
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 2: for all these triplets around there.

967
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:36,640
Speaker 4: If that that old school Ford Flex is still a

968
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 4: really good vehicle, there you go.

969
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 8: That's serious. I almost popped about that thing for my

970
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 8: mom when I first got in the league. I'm bout

971
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 8: my mama vehicle, and I think it was my.

972
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,720
Speaker 4: Second year in the league. Can't it fit a stroller? Absolutely?

973
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 4: Size the Ford Flex. The Ford Flex has to. I'm

974
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,280
Speaker 4: telling you you should see the size of the stroll.

975
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,560
Speaker 4: It's the length of this table at least like top

976
00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 4: top to bottom, like end to end. It's straight line. Yeah,

977
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 4: they're three row, so it's three in a row.

978
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 2: Bang bang bang, And there's car seats like it clicks

979
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 2: in and then you pop it out and it goes

980
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 2: into your car seat base that you put.

981
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 8: In your He's a freaking accordion he has to put

982
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 8: in this car, you know, seriously, Like, look up, I

983
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 8: know you probably want to get a newer vehicle, but

984
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 8: look up.

985
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 4: Some of those those those fourth lexes. Those things are awesome.

986
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 4: They're low. So your wife, you know, she's not the tallest.

987
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 4: But if anybody's got the car connection, let us know,

988
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 4: I do have a car plok, you know I need that. Yeah,

989
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 4: all right, all right.

990
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,840
Speaker 2: Uh. The guys who have come, we're talking departures and

991
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 2: arrivals on talking cowboys like we're DFW. We Uh, we've

992
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:42,360
Speaker 2: got three real I mean one arrival, one stay or

993
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,759
Speaker 2: two stays. Jordan Lewis, Rico daddle Back. We'll start with

994
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,800
Speaker 2: those two guys. Nick, what is the biggest impact of

995
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:50,759
Speaker 2: having both of those guys back in the fold?

996
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, Jordan Lewis. I think going into the offseason, it

997
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 5: was an expectation that either Jordan Lewis or Stefan Gilmour

998
00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 5: would would be retained. It's fun Gilmore still has not

999
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 5: found found a landing spot. There still could be a

1000
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:04,800
Speaker 5: fit for him on this team, but just go ahead

1001
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,520
Speaker 5: and solidify that nickel position. And as it stands right now,

1002
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 5: treyvon Diggs and Deron Blant on the outside. That just

1003
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,720
Speaker 5: gives you a lot more stability at that cornerback position.

1004
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 5: Granted you're one injury away from being in kind of

1005
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 5: a tough position, so you might need to spend a

1006
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,439
Speaker 5: Day three draft pick on that position to be able

1007
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 5: to acquire, you know, at least some reliable depth there.

1008
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 5: You do have Naseean Wright, which at training camp at

1009
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 5: times last year he looked good, but you know, at

1010
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:28,400
Speaker 5: other times maybe he was a little bit more shaky.

1011
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:30,759
Speaker 5: And then Rico Dada, as I mentioned earlier in the show,

1012
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 5: leading returning Rushiero at three hundred and sixty one yards

1013
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,359
Speaker 5: last year, and that just provides again a little bit

1014
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 5: more stability. Can't he stay healthy. I know towards the

1015
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 5: back end of the season he was dealing with an

1016
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 5: ankle issue. I believe he didn't miss a game, but

1017
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 5: it was a couple of games where it was really

1018
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 5: a game time decision. So he's got to be able

1019
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 5: to continue that health that he was able to build

1020
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 5: upon last year. And I think bringing in a rookie

1021
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 5: with him that can take over the lead the lead

1022
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 5: role capabilities, I think that'd be big.

1023
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 4: For that room.

1024
00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 5: But also don't discount Douce Vaughan and Hunter Loppe to

1025
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 5: that room as well. Malik Davis too. I think that's

1026
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 5: going to be a very interesting position group to follow

1027
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 5: during Auxnard.

1028
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 4: What do you think?

1029
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, getting Daubdell back for another year is good, especially

1030
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:13,719
Speaker 6: coming off the year where he was able to stay

1031
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 6: relatively healthy, and so I think that's that's a big

1032
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 6: move there, just because running back has just looked like

1033
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 6: it was going to be this glaring weakness and they

1034
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 6: still need to do more there. I'm not saying that

1035
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 6: they don't, but that just one spot that I really

1036
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,000
Speaker 6: think that they needed to do something.

1037
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 7: So that was good. But next up, obviously I've put

1038
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:29,400
Speaker 7: right after that.

1039
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 6: So what we talked about earlier, having to get Hankins

1040
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:33,959
Speaker 6: in there for the exact same reasons. Yeah, Jordan Lewis

1041
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 6: at cornerback I think is important because the way that

1042
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 6: they're spending right now makes you think that Stefan Gilmour

1043
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:42,759
Speaker 6: isn't a real possibility because I don't think he's going

1044
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 6: to just play for a one year like three million

1045
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 6: dollar deal or something like that. So you need Nayshon

1046
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 6: Wright or Eric Scott or somebody else to step up

1047
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 6: there Israel Mukuamu if they think that they can use

1048
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 6: him more at corner or you're gonna have to draft

1049
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 6: another guy. So it was good to get Jordan Lewis

1050
00:44:58,120 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 6: there because at least if you were able, if you

1051
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 6: had to play a game. Right now, you have three

1052
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 6: starting caliber corners. But they still need to do more

1053
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 6: at that spot because you just you need a lot

1054
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 6: of defensive backs. That's just there's going to got be

1055
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 6: guys that get injured and it's a position that you

1056
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 6: need good depth in the NFL.

1057
00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 5: I'm very curious to see what they do with one

1058
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 5: day Thomas, especially in Zimmer's scheme. You know, is he

1059
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:18,399
Speaker 5: used as a third safety or is he used kind

1060
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,279
Speaker 5: of as a roving defensive back that can play at

1061
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 5: the nickel or he can play on the boundary in

1062
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,960
Speaker 5: certain instances or play at safety. I think he's a

1063
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:27,840
Speaker 5: very versatile guy that you can kind of throw around

1064
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 5: in that secondary, and you.

1065
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 7: Guys go with safety with what they have, or do

1066
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 7: you think they.

1067
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:31,400
Speaker 4: Need to think so?

1068
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 5: I think so Marky's bell, I mean he's going to

1069
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 5: you assume he moves back after the year he had

1070
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 5: last year. One Yet Thomas after the year he had

1071
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 5: last year. I'm okay. If they do not spend a

1072
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:41,800
Speaker 5: draft pick on safety, I'm okay with that.

1073
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 2: That might be the one position where that maybe quarterback

1074
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 2: just because you have Trey Lance back there too. But

1075
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,400
Speaker 2: those are the two positions that I feel confident that

1076
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:56,759
Speaker 2: you're you're set in tying into. Yeah, tight end, yeah yeah,

1077
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 2: I feel good with the top two guys. After that,

1078
00:45:59,000 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 2: we can have a conversation.

1079
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 5: What are you guys looking for it? Wide receiver, a

1080
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:05,719
Speaker 5: big body outside guy. I feel like this team has

1081
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 5: needed that for three years. They need a procession red

1082
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 5: zone guy. You saw it kind of hurt them in

1083
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:13,240
Speaker 5: the beginning of the season last.

1084
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 4: Year they had wims.

1085
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 5: They had to work some things to be able to

1086
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,040
Speaker 5: to make some action happen down there in the red zone.

1087
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:21,920
Speaker 5: And eventually you got to give it to CD Lamb,

1088
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,719
Speaker 5: Brandon Cooks and Mike McCarthy as well being able to

1089
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 5: scheme those guys open in those short, short range instances.

1090
00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 5: But I think you need a big buddy guy you

1091
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,279
Speaker 5: can just throw it up to, like if you have

1092
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 5: a big body guy there at twenty four. Granted, I

1093
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,040
Speaker 5: think offensive line is a safe pick. I think that's

1094
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 5: what you need to do. But don't be don't be surprised.

1095
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 5: Don't be surprised.

1096
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 4: Be surprised out the cake with tassels are okay if

1097
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:46,920
Speaker 4: they have.

1098
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 8: Tassels, and if they do that at twenty four, I

1099
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:54,800
Speaker 8: will lose my entire everything.

1100
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 4: Don't look that up and I do not you were

1101
00:46:57,800 --> 00:46:58,839
Speaker 4: to have them freaking.

1102
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 8: Tassels, don't. Yeah, listen to that idea. I am okay

1103
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 8: with the safety position, I'm not. I like the fact

1104
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,759
Speaker 8: that they signed Jay Lou and Rico. Those are huge. Yeah,

1105
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 8: I think you need a Rico. I think Rico is

1106
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:16,520
Speaker 8: a very viable number two running back. You still need

1107
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 8: one number one where you gonna get that at I

1108
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 8: have no idea. There's not many running backs available that

1109
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:24,840
Speaker 8: are in a free agents market. At the beginning of

1110
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 8: free agency.

1111
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:27,879
Speaker 4: There was a ton. Now there's none. So not sure

1112
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 4: what you do there, assuming you're gonna draft somebody, but

1113
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:32,080
Speaker 4: you really.

1114
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:33,400
Speaker 8: Have to start looking at all the voice that you

1115
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 8: have and say, Okay, if we had a pecking order

1116
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:37,960
Speaker 8: of the top three picks this year, which is what

1117
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 8: end of the first, second third, I'm assuming twenty four

1118
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 8: or fifty six, eighty seven, there you go, Okay, what

1119
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 8: positions do you address?

1120
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:51,200
Speaker 5: Tackle? The center, running back, That's where I would be too.

1121
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:53,919
Speaker 5: Defensive tackles a thought as well, though, Like if there's

1122
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:55,560
Speaker 5: a defensive tackle there in the second or third round

1123
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 5: that you feel really good about, I would take a

1124
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 5: defensive tackle over a center or running back.

1125
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:00,479
Speaker 4: I think center.

1126
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,560
Speaker 5: I think there's a little bit more flexibility there because

1127
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 5: of brockhoff and and CJ.

1128
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 4: Bass.

1129
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 7: How you guys feel about defensive end.

1130
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 5: I think there needs to be a body added to

1131
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:12,879
Speaker 5: that room for sure.

1132
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 4: There's Dante and Durrance too. Yeah.

1133
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 15: Yeah.

1134
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 5: There's a kind of a thought being thrown around on

1135
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 5: Cowboys Twitter that if La Tou, the edge rusher from

1136
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 5: UCLA is there at twenty four, you can't pass him up.

1137
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:30,080
Speaker 5: Would he be scary next to Michael Parsons? Absolutely, But oh,

1138
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:31,359
Speaker 5: I don't know if it's that big of a need,

1139
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 5: I don't know. We'll see.

1140
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,839
Speaker 7: You got to counter that with let's go or ball

1141
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:38,600
Speaker 7: being or exactly that's.

1142
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,879
Speaker 5: That's what you're giving up. So yeah, training camp would

1143
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:42,759
Speaker 5: be a bludget edge.

1144
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 7: Actually, I do think they can find a center in

1145
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 7: like the third or fifth round.

1146
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cedric Van Pern Granger, I think is

1147
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 5: an awesome third third round option out of Georgia. So

1148
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:52,799
Speaker 5: you know, there's there's guys there.

1149
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 4: I think there's guys there.

1150
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 8: But again, the conversation to me that just keeps popping

1151
00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 8: up in my head is in that draft room, at

1152
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:00,279
Speaker 8: what point does Mike Zimer get up to and beat

1153
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 8: on the table.

1154
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 4: M hm?

1155
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 5: Does does he have does he have the flexibility to

1156
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 5: do that?

1157
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:10,800
Speaker 8: You know, I hear you, but I it's hard for

1158
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 8: me to to believe that he came on the staff saying,

1159
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:17,879
Speaker 8: you know what, what do we have on the roster?

1160
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 8: I can work with that, I can turn it into

1161
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:24,839
Speaker 8: a top defense. I don't see that being the case.

1162
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:27,359
Speaker 8: I really don't see that being the case. So that's

1163
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:30,279
Speaker 8: my concern with the That's why I said that what

1164
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 8: dan Quinn did by plucking Tyler Beds was huge. You

1165
00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 8: know it was Tyler BEONDI the greatest office in Linement.

1166
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 8: He was he was he was very viable, he was

1167
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 8: a viable guy, he was reliable, wasn't dominant.

1168
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:43,360
Speaker 6: I think they believe they can find his replacement in

1169
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,200
Speaker 6: this draft, and I don't mean taken in the first round.

1170
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,000
Speaker 6: I think they believe that they can find his replacement

1171
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:48,919
Speaker 6: in the third round.

1172
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 4: So you're going offensive lineman with two of your first

1173
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,800
Speaker 4: three picks. Yes, yeah, that's kind of okay. So when again,

1174
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 4: So when does Zimmer beat on the table because he

1175
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:03,239
Speaker 4: has voice to for his stuff? He did that. Yeah,

1176
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 4: but for again, go back, this is homework for everybody.

1177
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:10,320
Speaker 8: Go back and look at the size of the players

1178
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:13,360
Speaker 8: that he has always had on his defenses.

1179
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 4: Just go look at its size.

1180
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,359
Speaker 6: I can see a revolving door of random guys coming

1181
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,080
Speaker 6: in and out of training camp through whatever, it's trades, cuts,

1182
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 6: whatever like that, veteran players that are cheap at those positions.

1183
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 7: That you're going to be like, yeah, this really is

1184
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,680
Speaker 7: an answer or whatever. I don't see that. At offensive tackle,

1185
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:30,440
Speaker 7: I don't see that.

1186
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 8: I am in total agreeance with you, but I'm saying, Zimmer,

1187
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:36,400
Speaker 8: you're pretty much tilling Zimmer.

1188
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 4: Hey, you play with leftovers.

1189
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,719
Speaker 6: I think that the head coach is the offensive coordinator

1190
00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:43,279
Speaker 6: and he's not going to want to roll out there.

1191
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:45,520
Speaker 7: I hear you with a starting offensive line, But.

1192
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:47,720
Speaker 4: Just think about those conversations. If I'm coming on staff,

1193
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:48,080
Speaker 4: what do I.

1194
00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:51,279
Speaker 2: Have if you're taking an offensive lineman in two of

1195
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:54,560
Speaker 2: your first three picks. That third pick is most likely

1196
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:56,719
Speaker 2: going to go to defense regardless, it's going to go

1197
00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:58,839
Speaker 2: to defense, and it's go wherever Zimmer Is gonna want

1198
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 2: it to go. And that's either going to be at

1199
00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:01,759
Speaker 2: the linebacker spot or it's going to be at the

1200
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:02,359
Speaker 2: defensive tackle.

1201
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:06,759
Speaker 4: So where's your running back? That's that's the conversation. That's

1202
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:11,040
Speaker 4: where you got to Maybe maybe that's roster rushing.

1203
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 6: Maybe maybe maybe running back is somebody that, like I

1204
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,799
Speaker 6: just said, they run guys in and out of training

1205
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:20,400
Speaker 6: camp that are veterans on like one year deals, Dalvin

1206
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 6: Cook types something like that, where you're just like, yeah,

1207
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 6: he's not really whatever, but we're gonna run with that.

1208
00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:26,880
Speaker 7: I mean, they're not gonna I'm telling you right now,

1209
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 7: they're not gonna fill every one of these holes with

1210
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 7: somebody that is going to satisfy you.

1211
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 4: You know, they're just not.

1212
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:33,879
Speaker 6: You're gonna have to know you're gonna have to piece

1213
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:35,279
Speaker 6: this thing together with some paper mache.

1214
00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 10: Here.

1215
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:37,360
Speaker 5: And now you saw what the market looked like for

1216
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 5: c C last year. And it's not to say he

1217
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:41,919
Speaker 5: had a great year in New England last year. He'll

1218
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 5: probably be sitting there on August first or whatever whenever

1219
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:46,840
Speaker 5: they're sitting down there in Oxnard, like, you know what,

1220
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:48,399
Speaker 5: we could use another running back in this room.

1221
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 7: So and if you had to piece it a position together,

1222
00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:51,960
Speaker 7: I feel like that's the one.

1223
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:55,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the number fifteen open right now, tru Lass

1224
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 2: at that point right, he's gonna whip that thing and

1225
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:05,160
Speaker 2: make it happen. All right, that doesn't for us here

1226
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 2: on Talking Cowboys. We've got plenty to talk about going

00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:15,480

Speaker 4: me neither. I'm right there with you, all right.
