Speaker 3: Cowboys.

Speaker 2: This is Cowboys Storyline presented by Gillette, the official shave

00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 2: of the Dallas Cowboys.

7
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 1: Here's Nick Eatman.

8
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 4: Good morning, Welcome to Cowboys Storyline presented by Gillette. I'm

9
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 4: Nick Eatman. Wednesday, March the fourth. Let's get talking about

10
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 4: some Dallas Cowboys news and notes here as we get

11
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 4: ready for about a week before training, I mean, sorry,

12
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 4: week before the start of free agency. A little bit

13
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 4: flustered this morning, of course, electronics failing me once again.

14
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 4: Maybe I'm failing electronics. Then again, maybe I should get

15
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 4: here a little earlier. Eight eight A eighty five two

16
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 4: two nine seven is the number to call. Let's start

17
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 4: with the phone line. Let's start right off. Randy's first, What.

18
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 5: John, Oh, my brother that I'm friends with your mother?

19
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: What's up? Good? What's up?

20
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 5: So let's just say scenario Dallas gives Oakland our number

21
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 5: twenty pick and our second for next year, gets Crowsby

22
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 5: on the front line. We use our money, we go

23
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 5: out and we get the baddest linebackers we can find

24
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 5: on the market. Now, the middle of our line is

25
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 5: speech and we use our number twelve on either of

26
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 5: the best safety or the best corner. Now we've got

27
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 5: our back. We are done all that work that we've

28
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 5: been begging them to do to fix this team up,

29
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 5: and then our starting quarterback goes down. Are we really

30
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 5: comfortable with finally hopefully having Jerry do all this work

31
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 5: that we've been begging him to do and that's our back,

32
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 5: our backup quarterback situation? Or should we maybe start thinking

33
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 5: about upgrading that as well, just to protect all the

34
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 5: other stuff they may do. And of course the news

35
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 5: is Tyler he's out there. We're bringing him back to Chrisco.

36
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 5: But they're not talking too too sweet on him right now.

37
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 6: It's like they're having a hard.

38
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 5: Time picking him a team. And maybe we can get

39
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 5: him on a veteran's minimum one to two year try

40
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 5: out something just or whoever else is out there. But

41
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 5: what are you thinking about that? That's that's a lot

42
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 5: of work that did to the team and then they

43
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 5: just all go to waste if we lose a starting quarterback.

44
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: Well, that's that's the thing.

45
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 4: I mean, it depends on how much work you do,

46
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 4: because if you do enough work, like you're talking about

47
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 4: then an injury to your started quarterback doesn't derail the team,

48
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 4: and so that's that's that's what the hope is. I mean,

49
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 4: right in that last year, they didn't have a prayer

50
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 4: if if Dak would have gone down. I don't think.

51
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 4: But that's you want to be more balanced. I'm not

52
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 4: saying that it'll be exactly like it was three or

53
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 4: four years ago. But when Dak got hurt for four

54
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,399
Speaker 4: games and Cooper Rush had to play, they didn't lose

55
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 4: a game until I think maybe the fifth game against

56
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 4: Philly and so. But but Cooper Russian and he and

57
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 4: he wasn't the guy that that was really leading the charge.

58
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 4: It was just making smart decisions and letting the defense

59
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 4: kind of take over. So I don't think we're at

60
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,519
Speaker 4: that point where you know the defense is gonna be

61
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 4: good enough to take over. But I think the point

62
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 4: I'm trying to make is don't be so you know, uh,

63
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 4: top heavy here at quarterback, or just be a little

64
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 4: bit more balanced where you can kind of handle that.

65
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 4: But I hear what you're saying. I mean, the question

66
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 4: is is Joe Milton ready to be that guy for

67
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 4: three or four games? And I don't know that, I

68
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 4: really I don't. I think he got a chance to

69
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 4: play some last year. He played some in the preseason,

70
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 4: But I I think there are better options. Obviously, How

71
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 4: how expensive are those options? You know, we'll we'll see,

72
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 4: but there's no doubt there's there's other options there. But

73
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 4: I think I think you're you make some some good points. Now,

74
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 4: all the all the scenarios you're talking about, Uh, you know,

75
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 4: they they they moved to Vegas and case you didn't

76
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 4: know that, Randy, they did move to Vegas. But then again,

77
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 4: I don't blame anyone for that. Where the Raiders? Where

78
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 4: are the Chargers? You know they're they're over there somewhere,

79
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 4: all right. Next, uh caller is Dylan in Northport, Florida. Dylan,

80
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 4: what's that man?

81
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 7: Hey, how are you good?

82
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: You?

83
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 7: I'm good man, I'm good. I got a little Would

84
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 7: you rather this morning?

85
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 8: Two of them for you? This?

86
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 7: So the first one, yeah, of course it's clean man.

87
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 9: This is PG.

88
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 10: Okay, this is g or PG.

89
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 7: Right. The first one is the kicker. Would you rather

90
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 7: pay him a four year deal worth eight million per

91
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 7: year roughly? Or or three three or I know you know,

92
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 7: and I want to talk about that too in the

93
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 7: second year a year or from last week that you had.

94
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 7: But the other option is the the tags. You can

95
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 7: tender him for about six mil this year, tagging for

96
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 7: about seven mil next year, and then eight and a

97
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 7: half the next year, So you get basically three years

98
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 7: of control over him without a long term deal. What

99
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 7: do you like the tag and then maybe get rid

100
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 7: of him or something.

101
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 8: No.

102
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 4: No, I like again, I'm not I've never been in

103
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 4: those negotiations, so I don't really know how that works.

104
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 4: But I think the tag is helping the Cowboys to

105
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,559
Speaker 4: like to kind of like tell you know, Aubrey's camp

106
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 4: or whatever. All right, guys, let's let's let's calm down

107
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 4: a little bit on if it's ten million or nine

108
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 4: let's let's calm down.

109
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: I mean, because this is what we can do.

110
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 4: We can put it here at five and a half

111
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 4: or sit, you know, and and the restricted second round

112
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 4: tenders five and a half what five point six, and

113
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 4: so we can just play this And then now you've

114
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 4: got to go out there and play one of the

115
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 4: most mentally demanding positions there is and play with that

116
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 4: with every extra point, every kick is going to be

117
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 4: calculated that way, and it's probably gonna.

118
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: Be that way anyways.

119
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 4: Or you can say to use that tag in next

120
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 4: year's for franchise tag to say you want to come

121
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 4: down off of that a little bit, Well, we'll meet

122
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 4: you at maybe six and a half or seven, but

123
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 4: we're not going to play this game because this is

124
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,679
Speaker 4: what we have in our back pocket. And I think

125
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 4: that could probably help. That's the way I would at

126
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 4: least approach it.

127
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 7: What about you, Well, yeah, so if he was just

128
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 7: a straight up unrestricted free agent, right and there was

129
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 7: no tags available to do anything with, I think there

130
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 7: is a team that would pay ten million a year

131
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 7: to Brandon Aubrey, and I think it's I think you

132
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 7: could justify it for I got a whole list of

133
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 7: reasons here. I've been working on it for a couple

134
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 7: of weeks, but I won't go through.

135
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 2: All the reasons.

136
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 7: We all know, we know all the reasons why he's

137
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 7: still good.

138
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: Top. I mean, what's the.

139
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 7: Well, I mean, these are just these are some stats

140
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 7: I have, right, just yeah, I mean yeah, so so

141
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 7: one of them, there was twelve field goals from last

142
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 7: year from sixty plus yards. A quarter of them came

143
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 7: from Brandon Aubrey, cam Little may two of them. Other

144
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 7: than that, nobody had kicked more than two since Aubrey's

145
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 7: been in the NFL. Twenty one kick from sixty plus

146
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 7: yards with me, I'll be a six of them. No

147
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 7: other kicker has more than two. You know, against the Lions,

148
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 7: is the first picker ever to hit fifty five plus

149
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 7: yard field goals three times in one game. He got

150
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 7: the highest the second highest make rate in the NFL

151
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 7: less than fifty five yards in NFL history.

152
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 11: So like he's a.

153
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 7: Weapon, and you know, last week you said that, and

154
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 7: I disagree with you, and we agree, we see it

155
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 7: on a lot of things. But I did disagree with

156
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 7: you last week that he makes your offense worse sometimes

157
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 7: because they get stagnant. And it's not that it's not true,

158
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 7: but I'm not gonna sacrifice my weapon, my kicker because

159
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 7: of that reason. In particular, if anything, it would be

160
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 7: maybe a money thing, But I'm not going to be like, Okay,

161
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 7: play caller Schottenheimer and and quarterback Dack. You guys got

162
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 7: a straighten up. I'm not going to sacrific I'm not

163
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 7: going to cut off my nose to hopefully make my

164
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 7: elbow work better, you know what I mean, Like.

165
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 4: I'm gonna have to cut you off there, I don't.

166
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 4: I don't think I say makes the offense worse. I

167
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 4: think that that. I do believe the play calling sometimes

168
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 4: leans on him when it probably shouldn't. I don't know

169
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 4: if it makes the offense worse. I mean they score

170
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 4: points in in scenarios when most teams are punting, So

171
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 4: I don't know if it.

172
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: Makes it worse.

173
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 7: Something about they get to midfield and they slow down,

174
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 7: which is it's not that it's not true. I mean,

175
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 7: we saw it happen. It is true. But if I'm

176
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 7: the GM and I have an issue with that, or

177
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 7: you know, the coach or whatever, it might be, like

178
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 7: I've got to look at myself and say, we've got

179
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 7: to do some work better offensively. And it's not necessarily

180
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 7: the special team's fault that the offense slows down around

181
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 7: midfield because they're leaning on the kicker so much. Let's

182
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 7: maybe not to do that while knowing, you know, it's

183
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 7: in our back pocket if we need it.

184
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 8: So.

185
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 7: But I think there is a team that would overpay.

186
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 7: I think ten million is an overpay. But I think

187
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 7: there is a team out there that would overpay that,

188
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 7: knowing the weapon that he is. But if you take

189
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 7: Bucker's deal, add the twenty percent for the inflation rate,

190
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 7: add five percent. Because he is better than any other

191
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 7: kicker in the NFL, that's where you get, you know,

192
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 7: the eight mil per year, which I think that rate

193
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 7: is much more justifiable than anything else.

194
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 6: But I'm with you.

195
00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 7: I'm doing the tender this year, and you can just

196
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 7: plan that she want to take a team from the

197
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 7: deal because I've got you, you know, I've got the control.

198
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, and like you said, somebody could pay

199
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 4: ten don't give him the chance.

200
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the thing.

201
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 4: The Cowboys really don't have to allow that opportunity.

202
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: To happen now. And I don't.

203
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 4: I don't like to, like, you know, pick holes into

204
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 4: Aubrey's game. He's been He's been absolutely amazing. What I

205
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 4: wonder and I don't know the stat on this, I

206
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:32,199
Speaker 4: just wonder about kickers kicking mostly outdoors versus kickers kick

207
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 4: kicking predominantly indoors. You know, is there a big difference there?

208
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 4: Because I mean, what Butcker's doing in Kansas City, and

209
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 4: that's not always the easiest place to kick relative to

210
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 4: what Aubrey's been able to do and kick some games,

211
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 4: you know, kick a lot of games indoors.

212
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: I just wonder about that.

213
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,719
Speaker 7: But if there's another kicker that could come in for

214
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 7: a lessons that similar to Aubrey and not obviously it's good,

215
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 7: but maybe close enough type than.

216
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: He's got issues in Washington, there's no doubt about that.

217
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 7: I think a lot of people do.

218
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's again I'm kind of saying all this

219
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 4: like I'm not. I don't have all the research of

220
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 4: the kickers and whoever's paying them, you know, should should

221
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 4: have that. You know, does everyone struggle up there at

222
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 4: FedEx Field and what is his you know, he's not

223
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 4: missing a lot of kicks, let's be honest about that.

224
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 4: Then they play in Philly, they play the Giants, they

225
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 4: play Washington. They you know, he's not missing all the

226
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 4: time outdoors. It's not just an This isn't Amari Cooper

227
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 4: road versus home type of thing.

228
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 7: I mean, the only only two kickers made every field

229
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 7: goal less than fifty yards, Aubrey was one of them.

230
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 7: And the only misses he had less than fifty seven

231
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 7: were from fifty two. And that's across all the stadiums,

232
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,679
Speaker 7: obviously half of them are played indoors, at least at

233
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 7: a Cowboys State Eritt Stadium.

234
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 4: But he's awesome, There's no doubt about it. I'm not

235
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 4: saying the otherwise. The Cowboys hold the cards there, and

236
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 4: I think those cards that they have could probably say,

237
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 4: you know, do you really want to do this and

238
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 4: play this one year tender and this next year tender?

239
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 4: Or will this come to our level here and let's

240
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 4: be in the sixth you know, six point seven, six

241
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 4: point eight type range? Maybe seven. I think they you

242
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 4: could probably go to seven and then just call it today.

243
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 10: You think, okay, can.

244
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 7: I hit you with one more really fast before I

245
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 7: get off?

246
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 12: Okay?

247
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 7: I don't know if we can we say names yet

248
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 7: or no? For free agents that are projected to be free.

249
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 1: Agents, you say what you want this? Yeh?

250
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 8: Alright?

251
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:20,839
Speaker 1: What's on you?

252
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,719
Speaker 7: The guy out in Cincinnati? So Trey Hendrickson going to

253
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 7: be a free agent, okay? And we hear, we hear

254
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 7: the talk about Max Crosby right in the trade in

255
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 7: the Capital. You're going to give up with him. I

256
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 7: don't think it's gonna be twenty. It's gonna be a

257
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 7: twelve and probably something else right for Max. So Max

258
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 7: also comes with a huge price tag, right, So Hendrickson's

259
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,599
Speaker 7: projected to be about thirty percent less expensive than t

260
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 7: been Max Crosby, and you get to keep all of

261
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,319
Speaker 7: your your draft capital. So for me, and I want

262
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 7: to get your thoughts. Would you rather have a guy

263
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 7: like Max Crosby and lose your twelve pick and lose

264
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 7: the ability to go hunt other players in free agency

265
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 7: as effectively as you could versus a Trey hendricks Cent

266
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 7: plus maybe the top linebacker Devin Lloyd and the pre

267
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 7: agency period plus pick twelve plus pick twenty, what would

268
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 7: you rather go with?

269
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: I like, I want to keep twelve.

270
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 4: I'd like to keep twelve regardless, And then with Crosby,

271
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 4: I would probably, you know, I mean I'm saying it whatever,

272
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 4: I mean, it's out there. I mean, everyone knows, you know,

273
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 4: if this is going to happen, I would say twenty

274
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 4: would probably you know, I'd go to twenty. And if

275
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 4: you if that's not rich enough, then yeah, then I

276
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 4: would probably look at other options. But I think keeping twelve.

277
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 4: If I'm answering your question, I'm thinking keeping twelve is

278
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:39,599
Speaker 4: the top of the priority.

279
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't.

280
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,199
Speaker 4: I wouldn't hate your your scenario either, you know, keeping

281
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 4: your picks and going with you know, you're not getting

282
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 4: this dynamic of a player a little bit older but

283
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 4: also very very productive too.

284
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 7: Do you think that trading for in Max Crosby, with

285
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 7: his contract the way it is, you owe him thirty

286
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,719
Speaker 7: You hit for your cat for thirty five million right now.

287
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:01,959
Speaker 7: You might be able to do something with it when

288
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 7: he gets here, But it's a thirty five million dollars

289
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 7: cap charge. Do you think that restricts you from going

290
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 7: a hunting down linebackers and safeties and corners and free

291
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 7: agency at that point.

292
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 4: Possibly also depending on what happens with Pickens if he

293
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 4: stays at.

294
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: That number too, you know, because I mean you can get.

295
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 4: You can get that number down if you can, if

296
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 4: you could really make that work. So a lot of

297
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 4: a lot of balls in the air there.

298
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,719
Speaker 1: But I I have.

299
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 4: This feeling that we're we're not barking up the wrong

300
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 4: tree here. I don't I think, you know, I think

301
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 4: things are happening. I think they're going to happen, And

302
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 4: I don't think the Cowboys are gonna sit back and

303
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 4: not you know, not do anything. I think they're gonna

304
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 4: they're gonna do some some big time stuff. I really

305
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 4: believe that.

306
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 8: Fine.

307
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 7: Cool, Well, thanks man, I appreciate it.

308
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: Appreciate it.

309
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 4: Good stuff with you, all right, Brian in Kansas City,

310
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 4: what's up?

311
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 13: Good morning, sir?

312
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: How are you?

313
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 13: And you know, at a at the hell of a scenario,

314
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 13: you know that doing throughout there?

315
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 8: I don't know.

316
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 13: I'd have to think that one through. I don't think

317
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 13: I'm ready to avoide an opinion on that one yet.

318
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 13: It's two good players, but one significantly better than the other.

319
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 13: And and like you said, younger, right, so you know,

320
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 13: watching the combine, I'm just amazed at whatever they're putting

321
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 13: in the water. And Akron, what's going on up there

322
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 13: in Ohio that there's a linebacker that six what is

323
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 13: he sixty five to forty five and he ran the

324
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 13: time of a corner at four four six? I mean,

325
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 13: you know so, but just based on what we saw

326
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 13: in the combine, it sounds like like Styles and Reese

327
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 13: are not They're gonna they're gonna go top eleven, you know.

328
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 13: And the big surprise coming out is that Downs may

329
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 13: not because now there's some health issues and Apparently Jerry

330
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 13: said something I'm the bus about he doesn't want anybody

331
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 13: that can't contribute this year, And he wasn't talking about

332
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 13: a specific player. He was just asked the question about

333
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 13: what about you know, guys that we've taken chances on

334
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 13: the past. I guess the way it was asked. So

335
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 13: based on everything we learned in the.

336
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 8: Combine the good, the bad, you know, the people that tested,

337
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 8: the people that didn't test.

338
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 13: And why so Downs was a big one to come out.

339
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 13: Why as he's got I guess a degenerative tendon or

340
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 13: something like that, And it's one of those things that

341
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 13: some players play through and some don't. Some just don't laugh.

342
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 13: All the things that we learned up there, did it

343
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 13: impact what you're hoping for or what you view as

344
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 13: who's going to be there at twelve and what you're

345
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 13: hoping for being that top pick? So, in my opinion,

346
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 13: it sounds like we wouldn't take Downs or McCoy due

347
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 13: to injury concerns. Styles and rees are not going to

348
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 13: be there, is what everybody's saying. You know, what do

349
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 13: you think? How do you think that shapes that out?

350
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 13: And I'll hang up and.

351
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: Look the man good to talk about right, appreciate it,

352
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: you know.

353
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 4: Again, I this is this is part of that process

354
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 4: where you know, the things come out from the from

355
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 4: the combine. Uh, That's why you have different you know,

356
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 4: That's why that everyone's medical team goes up there so

357
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 4: they can kind of evaluate everyone themselves. Then they come back,

358
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 4: they go to their own pro day, they'll have their

359
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 4: own workouts, visits. A lot of things will kind of

360
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 4: materialize between now and then. Some not so, you know,

361
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 4: not so serious, some of.

362
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: Them will be.

363
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 4: I kind of I kind of wonder if if some

364
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 4: of the things that we see and hear aren't aren't

365
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 4: kind of overblown maybe a little bit. There might be

366
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 4: a team sitting at twelve or fifteen or twenty that

367
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 4: were like, oh, here but his knee, you know. And

368
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 4: again I'm not saying that that that's happening, but I'm

369
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 4: sure it has happened. And so again, not too serious

370
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 4: about all that stuff. I do like what Jerry said

371
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 4: about I like the fact that he's like, we're not

372
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 4: going to red shirt our second round pick. They don't

373
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,120
Speaker 4: have a second round, they might end up with one,

374
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 4: but we're not red shirting these these players that they

375
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 4: need to play, and you know, it sounded like he

376
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 4: was maybe a little disappointed with the Rebels stuff. I'm

377
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 4: not disappointed by that it was a third round pick.

378
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 4: If he plays this year and he's starting for you,

379
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 4: I think that would be a really really good, good

380
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 4: pick in a good situation, second round and maybe a

381
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 4: little too high for those risky situations that they've done

382
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 4: so many times when you get after that third, fourth round.

383
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 4: I don't have a real big problem with them. All right,

384
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 4: Josh in Chicago is next, Nick?

385
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: I'm good. How are you good?

386
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 11: So with free agency looming, there's a couple of things

387
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 11: I want to bring up. The first thing is I

388
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 11: think people like fans need to remember that this is

389
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 11: a two way street. So we can make plays for

390
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,400
Speaker 11: players out there and they just it might not work out.

391
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 11: So we can't just like pay everyone and expect them

392
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 11: to be here because there's other teams and other things

393
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 11: that are being done. I know we tend to get

394
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 11: lost in that sometimes, so I just want to remind

395
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 11: people like, this is a two way street and a

396
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 11: two way negotiation.

397
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 14: Right.

398
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 11: The other thing, I know, we keep signing sign sign Jeep,

399
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 11: sign GP, but it's gonna cost a lot of money,

400
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 11: and I do think like in the past, we've looked

401
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 11: at it and been like, well, we didn't really go

402
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 11: sign any big whales or do any big things in

403
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 11: free agency, like we signed g like GP to a

404
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 11: long term deal. You know, he was a top one

405
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 11: hundred player entering free agency before the franchise tag, So

406
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 11: don't forget, like like people don't forget that he's right, Yeah,

407
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 11: I think he was the top I don't see him

408
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 11: on the list anymore because I think not franchise.

409
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 4: Tag, yeah, not just just you know, the top one

410
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 4: hundred and the top player.

411
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 10: Yeah.

412
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 11: I saw a couple of lists where he was like

413
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,200
Speaker 11: number one or like always the top five, right, top three.

414
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 12: I think.

415
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 11: I think what's the lowest I saw was the list

416
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 11: I had them at like the number three guys. So

417
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 11: that's a big deal. And I just wanted to kind

418
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 11: of talk with you a little bit. I know you've

419
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 11: talked in the past about like inflation and like how

420
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 11: free agency inflates everything, especially when the cap goes up.

421
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 11: But isn't that just kind of the nature of the game,

422
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 11: Like I know, we're gonna pay a little bit more

423
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 11: for somebody than a couple of years ago. But with

424
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 11: the cap going up, that's kind of just how all

425
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 11: inflation works. I guess I'm not an economist.

426
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 15: But I'm not either.

427
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I always think it's funny when people say, oh,

428
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 4: the cap went up, you know, that's good for teams,

429
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 4: you know, like like the Cowboys or any anybody that

430
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 4: that's like right there at the at the line.

431
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: It's like, well, it's it's good for everybody, you know

432
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: what I mean.

433
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 4: It's I don't think I don't think the cap going

434
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 4: up really helps one team or another, because it just

435
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,400
Speaker 4: gives the team that does have much money even more

436
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 4: and it makes the market even even higher for them.

437
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 4: You know, I think it's funny. I sat here a

438
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 4: few years ago and saw some of these players the

439
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,679
Speaker 4: Cowboys were losing in free agency, and could they have

440
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 4: paid him or him? And some of those guys are

441
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 4: getting cut now.

442
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 8: You know.

443
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 4: I mean, so that's one thing to remember, is is

444
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,400
Speaker 4: the Cowboys, And you know it's it's buyer beware all

445
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,919
Speaker 4: the time with free agency. There's something there's not wrong,

446
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 4: but there there's there's a reason why you wouldn't give

447
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 4: this guy so much money. Anyone George pickints included. There's

448
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 4: a reason.

449
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: Why you wouldn't.

450
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 4: You're you're a little you're a little scared about it,

451
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 4: but he's just too dynamic. The Cowboys are going to

452
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 4: try to make it work, obviously and resign him. But anybody, yeah,

453
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 4: the the Hendrick Center, whoever's out there, those guys, there's

454
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 4: a reason why. There's a reason why these guys aren't

455
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 4: getting signed by their own team. And and you have

456
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 4: to factor all that in. It's got to be a

457
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 4: good fit for what the Cowboys are doing or any

458
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 4: anybody's trying to do. So you're you're right about everything

459
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 4: that that you're saying there.

460
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 11: I also think, you know, we talked about extending contracts

461
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 11: and extending money. I was looking at the stuff on

462
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 11: the cap, I think yesterday or the day before or

463
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 11: and I think we're still like they're still like sixteen

464
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 11: or seventeen million or something like that for Zach Martin

465
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 11: and dead money. So don't forget too when we have

466
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 11: these void years and we push money down the road.

467
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 11: It's good, and I agree with doing this, especially like

468
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 11: with Back or CD, but sometimes letting Terrence Steel play

469
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 11: out helps us long term too, because we don't have

470
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 11: any dead money next year or something like that, when

471
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:20,360
Speaker 11: he's not even.

472
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 4: Here playing at all, and you kind of answered your

473
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 4: own comment or your you know, your own comment. There

474
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 4: is look what they just did, Like like when I say,

475
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 4: just get like what an hour ago ago, thirty minutes ago.

476
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 4: I mean the Cowboys, this is woods, they morning. They

477
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 4: they extended the deals. They're you know, restructured contracts to

478
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:46,360
Speaker 4: Dak and Tyler Smith CD I think is going to happen. Yeah,

479
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 4: and Terrence Steel wasn't on that list, you know, so

480
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 4: you're right. I mean, there's some contracts that you're like,

481
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 4: let's let's play this out. Some of these guys are

482
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 4: getting cut. Some of these guys, like you said, are

483
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 4: just getting you know, you're just playing it out because

484
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 4: you could, Yeah, you could save money by Terrence Steel.

485
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 4: But then what then who are you sign who are

486
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 4: you playing? Who's going to be better than Terrence Steel?

487
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,239
Speaker 4: And you can laugh at that if you want to,

488
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 4: but just be careful what you wish for when you

489
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 4: try to put in their right tackle. I'm not saying you, Josh,

490
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 4: I'm just saying.

491
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 11: Yeah, no, I know, well, I've been critical of Terence

492
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 11: Steel in the past. And Guyton, And I'll stand by

493
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 11: Steel is not the best pass blocker, right, like, he

494
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 11: just isn't. He's a He's a darn good run blocker.

495
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 11: He's very good at that, and he grades out very

496
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 11: well at that. And I think even if you if

497
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 11: they cut him, yeah, you're saving some money because you're

498
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 11: not paying him the full contract. But I do think

499
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 11: in twenty seventeen there's still be some dead money sitting

500
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 11: around for him, right, So like, what are you really

501
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 11: what are you really saving?

502
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 12: You know?

503
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 11: Yeah, it just depends, right, So it's complicated issues contract talk,

504
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 11: right and signing free agents. But I mean I'm really

505
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 11: hoping that we get at least, you know, three defensive

506
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 11: leoship free agents. But you know, I also have the

507
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,120
Speaker 11: realistic approach that they may not want to play here.

508
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 11: They may not want to play a Christian Parker, they

509
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 11: may not want to play under Jerry Jones, right like

510
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 11: that that's a reality too.

511
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 4: So it's a reality I mean for some you know,

512
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 4: I mean some people, some people, do you know what,

513
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:11,679
Speaker 4: would want to play here? I mean it sounds like

514
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 4: thanks for the call, Josh, good stuff as always. I mean,

515
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 4: you know, from what we're seeing out of hearing about

516
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 4: Christian Parker is that these guys love him. I mean

517
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 4: they love to play for him, and so, you know,

518
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 4: I it usually usually comes down to the money, though,

519
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 4: you know. I mean it's it's not just well, I'm

520
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 4: going to go and play for the Dallas Cowboys because

521
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,919
Speaker 4: my family loved the Cowboys or my dad was a

522
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 4: big fan.

523
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: You hear some of that.

524
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 4: It happens, but the money's got to be right too,

525
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 4: uh And and that's that's usually what you know. If

526
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 4: you're not in the in the same ballpark, then then

527
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,159
Speaker 4: it really doesn't matter. For the Cowboys are gonna have

528
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 4: to be at that point. And if they are, you know,

529
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 4: then I then I like you my chances. If I'm

530
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 4: the Cowboys, I like Jerry's chances of selling the player.

531
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 4: It's got to be, like I said, the contracts got

532
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,919
Speaker 4: to be there. But I like Gary's chances of selling.

533
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 4: I like Christian Parker's chance. Brian shottheimer. You know, playing

534
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 4: on it on a defense with with an offense, it's

535
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 4: gonna score a lot of points. I mean, I've thought

536
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,400
Speaker 4: about that this morning. I mean, like there were games

537
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,120
Speaker 4: where you know, the Cowboys were you can tell we're

538
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 4: gonna get gonna get beat here. They just can't keep

539
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 4: up because their defense just couldn't stop them. Detroit, Denver, Chicago.

540
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 4: You know, those weren't blowouts really, but they were definitely

541
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 4: one sided. But I might be missing some games too,

542
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 4: but it's just like the offense is always gonna kind

543
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 4: of keep you in these games and sometimes win them.

544
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 4: So I think that would be kind of exciting for

545
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,160
Speaker 4: the defense. I've got to go, you know what, bars Low,

546
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 4: Let's go in here and you know, let's get better.

547
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 4: Let's get off the let's get out of the thirties

548
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 4: in the ranking, you know, try to get middle of

549
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 4: the pack, if not better, and then let the offense

550
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 4: kind of do what it what it's gonna do.

551
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,719
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to break here on Cowboys storyline,

586
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 4: Let's go to Michael and Bowling Green. He's been holding

587
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 4: a little bit, Michael.

588
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:56,640
Speaker 10: Top's go along, Matt, how are you doing pretty good?

589
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 10: I get a couple things real quick. I asked about

590
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 10: and uh, what you think I've heard after the combine down.

591
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 10: He's got some some physical problems that could keep him out,

592
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 10: depending on the severity, anywhere from two to twelve months.

593
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 10: And he's also got a degenerative ACL. If all that's

594
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 10: true and he drops up, would you take me knowing.

595
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 4: That, Uh, that's not my That wouldn't be my call.

596
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously that would be what I mean. You

597
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 4: have to listen to what your head trainer of Jim

598
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 4: Mauer and his evaluation of the guy. You would have

599
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 4: to just listen to it and and see what what

600
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,680
Speaker 4: he thinks. I mean, again, I can't sit here and say, well,

601
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 4: I mean, how bad is it. I mean, there's been

602
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 4: stories on these guys, some of them. I mean, what's

603
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 4: been twenty something years. I remember the same thing was

604
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 4: said about a guy named Steven Jackson running back, and

605
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 4: he was pretty good for a long time. So you know,

606
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,400
Speaker 4: and I'm sure there are stories of guys that that, hey,

607
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 4: be careful, he's got a knee issue, and you know,

608
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 4: two or three years later he's out of the league,

609
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,879
Speaker 4: and so that they were right. I don't have the

610
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 4: studies on all that he's he's gonna fall. I wouldn't

611
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 4: be surprised if this is maybe blown out of proportion

612
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,679
Speaker 4: a little bit, But again, I don't know all that.

613
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 4: If they feel come, i'd say, this is he gonna

614
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 4: be able to play for you for three or four

615
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 4: five seasons? If so, then I'm I probably would do it.

616
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 10: Probably draft them also, her Tall, trading down to sixteen,

617
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 10: picking up either a third rounder or picking up a

618
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 10: four and of seven, drafting theism and then maybe a

619
00:28:55,960 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 10: twenty a h usher.

620
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm I'm fine with trading down.

621
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 4: And if you're in a scenario of you know, the

622
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 4: top guys that you really want are kind of wiped out,

623
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 4: and now you're looking at all, right, we could take

624
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 4: these guys. Now, these four guys up here are all

625
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 4: sort of in the same boat. We like them about

626
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 4: the same. So then so then I'm okay, you know,

627
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 4: moving to sixteen or so, like you said, and getting

628
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 4: one of those guys still and then picking up another

629
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 4: pick in that scenario, but not of well, you know,

630
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 4: there's one guy we really like and and hope he falls,

631
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 4: but let's also pick.

632
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 1: Up a third.

633
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 4: Now that it wouldn't work that way, So it would

634
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 4: have to just see how the how the board falls.

635
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 4: There's gonna be a few guys that they hope really

636
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 4: fall right to them, and if that happens, then that's

637
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 4: why you stay, you know, you stand past.

638
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: So one more.

639
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 10: Yeah, I was talking to Brian in Kansas City last night.

640
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 10: I was out of town driving back to work.

641
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 6: Left.

642
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 10: We ended up talking for a little while. We were

643
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 10: talking about Cowboys quarterbacks and I told him, I said,

644
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 10: I'll never forget this. I was like Troy eight when

645
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 10: near the end of his career through was it was

646
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 10: near the end of the game they were losing and

647
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 10: he's running around a little bit and all of a sudden,

648
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 10: the announcer goes on a Rockets wide open and Troy

649
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 10: just launched it, and I called the instride scored a touchdown.

650
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 10: And Brian said, that was your first game.

651
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, Washington, Yes, yeah, yeah.

652
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 10: That play because he made it look so easy.

653
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, MTT made the play. I mean, if you

654
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 4: really want to be candid about it, it was third

655
00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 4: and two or something like that around the twenty five

656
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 4: yard line and over time, and and you know, it

657
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 4: was a play action and the defense sucked, you know,

658
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 4: it goes sucked into it, and it said all right,

659
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 4: well it's gonna be em it for you know, like

660
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:13,239
Speaker 4: it always is.

661
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 1: And it was a.

662
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 4: Play action and and and they had thrown that pass

663
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 4: earlier in the game and Rocket it was Rocket's first

664
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 4: game for the Cowboys too, and Rocket it went right

665
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 4: through his hands. It was early in the game, went

666
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 4: right through his hands. And and they and Rocket tells

667
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 4: a great story. It might take about twelve minutes, but

668
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 4: he tells, he tells a great story about that play

669
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 4: in the huddle and then talking about it. But yeah,

670
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 4: it it's it's great. It's it's it's one of the

671
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 4: I mean, it's the top game for me of of

672
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 4: all time, of just you know, most memorable because it

673
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 4: was so meaningful and to be there and and and

674
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 4: to see, you know, because it wasn't just Eric Bjornsen

675
00:31:54,800 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 4: or Johnathan or Jeff Ogden or Chris Warren making plays.

676
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: It was EMITTT.

677
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 4: Smith, Michael Irvin, Troy Aikman and then Rocket at the end.

678
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 4: It's those guys making the plays. At the end of

679
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 4: the nineties, the start of the decade, I was in

680
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 4: junior high in high school, you know, and loving these

681
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 4: guys and loving the cowboys and all that, and then

682
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 4: the end of the decade, here they are, those guys

683
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 4: are the ones making the plays. And so yeah, without

684
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 4: a doubt, that will always be my favorite game.

685
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 10: Oh I'll never forget that play, Yeah, never forget it.

686
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 10: The way they announced was like.

687
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 13: Oh Rocket, yeah, yeah.

688
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 10: He just launched it. I mean put it right in

689
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 10: he ownstride. And I'm like, I just don't. I just

690
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 10: don't see that like that a lot anymore. But yeah,

691
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 10: all right, hey, I appreciate that sounds good.

692
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 4: Appreciate you. All right, let's keep it rolling here, We've

693
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 4: got Steve in New York.

694
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: How you been you know what been been great?

695
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 15: I mean I'm glad. I was just telling Chris, I

696
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 15: got like two feet of snow up here and now

697
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 15: it's going to be like sixty degrees, so.

698
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 9: I love it.

699
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

700
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, the rain here and it's like freaking everybody out.

701
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 10: So yeah, we'll see.

702
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 15: Yeah.

703
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 10: Yeah.

704
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 15: You know when you're talking about the whole picking thing,

705
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 15: and I'm glad they resigned them. You know, they put it,

706
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 15: they franchise them. You know, I wish when I went

707
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 15: to college that there was a course that you could

708
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 15: take for the salary cap because think about it, was

709
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 15: it ninety four, it came here, that's when, that's when

710
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 15: the NFL had it. What are we looking at? Like

711
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 15: there's still so many like intricacies and angles that I

712
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 15: think half the people I don't even understand it. Like

713
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 15: how many times do you see another team like the

714
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 15: Eagles they signed Someoney're like, how do they have money

715
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 15: right to get this guy? And I just wish there

716
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 15: was like you know, it's every time you think you

717
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 15: know the cap and like you said, oh what up

718
00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 15: to three hundred million that's already So basically it went

719
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 15: up to something that we were over already, so I

720
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 15: don't you know.

721
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know, I always think of it like this.

722
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 4: Think about your own money, you like, like like your

723
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 4: own accounts, and you might have more than one and

724
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 4: different things, and you know, and.

725
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 1: How you justify doing this here.

726
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 4: I'll pay for this here, but you know, I don't

727
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:21,920
Speaker 4: have to worry about that because I know this is

728
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 4: coming in here, like you can do You can do

729
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 4: that for yourself, you know, because you kind of know

730
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 4: all that stuff going on. And so I always think

731
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 4: it's weird when people try to write, like how much

732
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 4: money do the Cowboys have in the cap? It's so

733
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 4: fluid that like even this morning and like right now,

734
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 4: think about how different it is, just like that, just

735
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,280
Speaker 4: like that the Cowboys decided to trigger this and change

736
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 4: it up here, and so you know, they can do

737
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 4: so many different things. And they're also they know these

738
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 4: things are coming in So every time you see you know,

739
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 4: the Cowboys have fifty million caps, well twenty five of

740
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 4: it they've put over here on the shelf because they

741
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 4: know that they need it during the season. They know

742
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 4: you have to pay for these things here and there.

743
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 4: So that's why it's I always think it's weird. I

744
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 4: wouldn't want anyone to come in and tell me about

745
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 4: what's going on with my finances. I think it's weird

746
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,879
Speaker 4: when people try to do it others because it is

747
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:20,839
Speaker 4: not black and white there.

748
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean they have.

749
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 15: They have all these websites where you can go to

750
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,480
Speaker 15: and it's all I think, it's all you know.

751
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, yes, some of those websites are good to

752
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 4: learn about the contract and understand how the contract works

753
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 4: the fourth year, the fifth year, if you cut him here,

754
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,280
Speaker 4: some of those. Some of those websites are pretty good

755
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 4: from a from a contract standpoint, right, But.

756
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 15: As far as like when they say, well this team

757
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 15: has you know, X amount of dollars available, that gets

758
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 15: really that's kind of not what the situation is, Which

759
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 15: leads me to this question. This is just you know,

760
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,440
Speaker 15: your personal opinions, you know, based on this league and

761
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 15: what you've seen over the years. Do you think, and again,

762
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 15: I want to keep the guy, but do you think

763
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 15: it's financially possible with the cap to keep two number

764
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,720
Speaker 15: one receivers like we would have to long term deals?

765
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do.

766
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 4: I think I think it's I think you can I

767
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 4: think you, you know, just how you want to be structured.

768
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 1: But they but they have to take it up a notch.

769
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 4: And I you know, I'm not just gonna say, well

770
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 4: the offense offense is fine, you know, just fixed the defense.

771
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 4: None of the offense has to be even better than that,

772
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 4: especially if you're gonna pay pickings now, like it has

773
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 4: to be that dynamic and that borderline unstoppable, you know.

774
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,920
Speaker 4: And so because if that's how you're structuring what you're paying.

775
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 4: You paid your quarterback, you're paying your two receivers. You've

776
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 4: got the highest guard in the game, and it sounds

777
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,919
Speaker 4: like you're gonna have the highest kicker as well. You're

778
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 4: having having all these contracts. You better go in running

779
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 4: backs getting pretty good money too. Now you better go

780
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 4: and be a team that's going to get thirty to

781
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,879
Speaker 4: thirty five points a game and outscore people. You have

782
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 4: to do that. That's how you're structure it. Then you

783
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:13,800
Speaker 4: then that's the standard, and off nights aren't aren't really

784
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 4: gonna be accepted.

785
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 6: No fair enough.

786
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 15: I totally get that. Yeah, it's gonna be interesting real

787
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 15: real quick. On the trivia, segueing right into wide receivers,

788
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:29,760
Speaker 15: our number eighty eight, so we know the history. Who's

789
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 15: a do you know who the eighty eight between the

790
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 15: tight end for the Cowboys early two thousands prior to

791
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 15: not Antonio Antonio O'Bryant was what was that two thousands

792
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 15: of Yeah, that was part in between there there was

793
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 15: an eighty eight who caught one pass as a cowboy,

794
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 15: maybe maybe two passes as a cowboy and his in

795
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 15: his NFL career. You know who it was. You probably

796
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 15: know who it wasn't have.

797
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 1: A story, but well is Jackie Harris?

798
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,360
Speaker 15: No, no, Jackie Harris. Well he did wear idio, but

799
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 15: he actually did a lot. He had a y pretty

800
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 15: good numbers.

801
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:09,240
Speaker 4: So there's another eighty eight. Yeah, in between Jackie Harris

802
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:10,280
Speaker 4: and Antonio Bryant.

803
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 15: Listen, it's obscure, but you're you're good with the obscure.

804
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 15: So that's why.

805
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 1: Did Brett Pierce wear eighty eight?

806
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 10: Wow?

807
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 15: Yeah, Brett Pierce?

808
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:21,280
Speaker 10: That you got it.

809
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 15: What's amazing too, because I think the only pass he

810
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 15: caught as a cowboy after check this but and I

811
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,799
Speaker 15: don't even have to tell you what year, what week,

812
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 15: and because you'll know the game I just called the

813
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 15: Santana Moss Game because it was one of the worst

814
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 15: football mes.

815
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,439
Speaker 4: Best half of the time, best halftime of all time

816
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 4: because because the triple went into the Ring of Honor.

817
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 4: And then after that, Yeah, I remember being at the

818
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 4: stadium looking at my media guide to see when's the

819
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,400
Speaker 4: last time the Cowboys had a shutout because it was

820
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 4: like thirteen to nothing, and then the next thing, you know,

821
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,320
Speaker 4: Moss Santana, Moss, they've those fourteen thirteen.

822
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was that was about with Brett Pierce. I

823
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: didn't I guess I didn't realize he wore eighty eight.

824
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 15: He did, he actually did for a year. Yeah, forty

825
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,840
Speaker 15: nine guy, good guy. Yeah, you know, Nick, thank you

826
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 15: always for thanking man.

827
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 1: Appreciate it.

828
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 4: I don't have a big story about Brett Pierce, but

829
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 4: I'll say this, especially with the way things are at

830
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 4: the combine and and how these guys can can drop

831
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 4: just based off of you know, dimensions and all that,

832
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 4: he didn't have the longest arms in the four tight end.

833
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,280
Speaker 4: I mean, in fact, he was one of the shortest

834
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,840
Speaker 4: arms for for tight ends. Very noticeable too, so he

835
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 4: would have been if he did go to the combine,

836
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 4: he would have that would have been a story if

837
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 4: that I think it's kind of kind of crazy. And

838
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 4: I remember asking a scout we were we were on

839
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 4: a bus two years ago going to to you know,

840
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:55,320
Speaker 4: the bus ride from from Lax to Oxnard is is longer,

841
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 4: always longer than expected. You know, you think you're there,

842
00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:59,320
Speaker 4: you know, and you're still about an hour and a

843
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 4: half hour or though, depending on traffic. And I'm on

844
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 4: the bus and I'm talking to a scout and I'm like, so,

845
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 4: if Cooper Babe was so good and everyone's so excited

846
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,399
Speaker 4: about him, why did he go to the third round?

847
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:12,839
Speaker 4: And i mean without hesitation. The scout was like thirty

848
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:16,439
Speaker 4: one and a half its charms. I'm like, oh, okay, yeah,

849
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 4: that's the thing. Yeah, thirty one in charms. That's why

850
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 4: you know that, that's why he's not playing guard, that's

851
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 4: why he's playing center. And I'm just like, okay, you know,

852
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 4: it's just it's it's funny to me how just a

853
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 4: couple of you know, a couple of inches here and

854
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 4: there are gonna are gonna change a guy going to

855
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 4: the you know what round, you know, second, third, fourth round.

856
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 4: But you know you're hearing about it with Miami, with Bain,

857
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 4: another situation like that, you know, to me, if he

858
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,320
Speaker 4: can play, he can play. And I said this before,

859
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 4: I want these guys that that love football, absolutely love

860
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 4: football one thousand percent, because those are the guys that

861
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:52,319
Speaker 4: are gonna be in the in the weight room. Those

862
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:53,759
Speaker 4: are the guys are gonna be in the film room.

863
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 4: And and I think that you know, four to three

864
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:02,280
Speaker 4: three sounds great, and and maybe forty three in vertical.

865
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:06,360
Speaker 4: All that stuff is awesome. But the guys that absolutely

866
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 4: are going to put their heart and soul in their

867
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 4: profession to play football, I think that makes up the

868
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:16,279
Speaker 4: difference for a forty time or however long your arms

869
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:17,719
Speaker 4: are and things like that.

870
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:19,760
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Rob in Vegas.

871
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 8: What's up?

872
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: Rob?

873
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:20,799
Speaker 6: Hey?

874
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 9: Nick?

875
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 1: You doing good?

876
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 14: You?

877
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,919
Speaker 9: I'm good. You know, talking about the draft, I heard

878
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:31,120
Speaker 9: something yesterday. You know, everybody wants to keep the pigs,

879
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 9: and everybody has this great trust for whatever reason, for

880
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 9: the Cowboys drafting on defense. But they said, in the

881
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:45,800
Speaker 9: last twelve years, twelve drafts, all the defensive ends, they've

882
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 9: drafted only one. And I was twelve years ago that

883
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 9: actually panned out with Tank Lawrence. If you look at it,

884
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 9: everybody else was pretty much averaged to a bus now.

885
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 1: Just defensive ends defensive end.

886
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:06,359
Speaker 9: As Iraku let's say said, it's still we don't know,

887
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 9: but if you look at it, and it's crazy. When

888
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,239
Speaker 9: they started naming the names, I'm like, who the hell

889
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 9: is that guy? I don't remember? I didn't remember eighty

890
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 9: percent of the guys. And I'm like, that's why when

891
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:27,239
Speaker 9: you have an opportunity to get a you know, a

892
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 9: Max Max Crosby and hearing being here in Vegas, it's

893
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:37,280
Speaker 9: it's going to happen, you know it. It is, he's going.

894
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 9: My fear is he's going to Philadelphia because they will

895
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:46,319
Speaker 9: do whatever it takes. But people talking about the money.

896
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 9: Everybody was willing to give Micah and I definitely wanted

897
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:55,720
Speaker 9: to forty million dollars. This guy's ten million dollars cheaper

898
00:42:55,920 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 9: and probably a better all around player at the position.

899
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,239
Speaker 9: And I think he's only two years old these twenty eight,

900
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 9: So anybody talking about the money is ridiculous because you

901
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 9: would have dropped forty forty one, forty two on Mike

902
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:15,280
Speaker 9: and a heartbeat, and you're getting this guy at thirty.

903
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,759
Speaker 9: And I know there's other players out there, like a Hendrickson,

904
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,400
Speaker 9: but he's older and he ain't going to be free.

905
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 9: He's going to be close to thirty, you know, twenty five,

906
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 9: you know, And I keep hearing about it. I keep

907
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 9: hear by talking about the Dak window, a three year window. Well,

908
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 9: then it to me, it's a no brainer. It's a

909
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:45,239
Speaker 9: no brainer. If if Dak was gone and we were

910
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 9: starting with a rookie, then I don't expect much. Go

911
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 9: go do what you gotta do. But you got a

912
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 9: three year window now to Pickens thing. I love Pickens,

913
00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 9: but I'd rather have a great defense, or I'm not

914
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:03,399
Speaker 9: even going to say a great defense, but I think

915
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 9: this team would be more successful with a very good offense,

916
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:13,000
Speaker 9: which they've always had with Deck, a healthy Deck at quarterback,

917
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 9: regardless who the wide receivers were, the offenses were, especially

918
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,879
Speaker 9: once they got CD, they've always had top I think

919
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 9: he's had top five offense like three four times. I mean,

920
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,359
Speaker 9: I'd rather have a very good offense, which I think

921
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 9: i'd get without Pickings, and a very good defense. I

922
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 9: could win more with that combination than what I had

923
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,840
Speaker 9: last year. The number one offense, a number two offense,

924
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:44,440
Speaker 9: but a terrible defense. And if we're expecting a Christian

925
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:48,680
Speaker 9: Parker who's never been a DC to flip it from

926
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:53,399
Speaker 9: a thirty second ranked defense to fifteen four. I mean,

927
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 9: let's asking a lot with just draft picks and a

928
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 9: couple of free agents. So to me, you got to

929
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 9: get stars at certain positions, and defensive end is the most.

930
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,560
Speaker 9: A pass rusher is the most important person on defense.

931
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,440
Speaker 9: That's why they get paid the most. It's not quarterback.

932
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 9: It's not linebacker, and today maybe in nineteen ninety four

933
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 9: it was, but now if you cannot get to the quarterback,

934
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 9: you cannot win.

935
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 1: All right.

936
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 4: I don't think the Cowboys disagree with you anything that

937
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 4: you're saying. I think this is one of those cases.

938
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:36,840
Speaker 1: Rob. I think Jerry sounds like he's on the same page.

939
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:37,080
Speaker 15: There.

940
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens.

941
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 9: I mean, I know, but I don't have to. I

942
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 9: don't trust Jerry Jerry Law.

943
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:44,799
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, show me.

944
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 9: Show me you robbed.

945
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:48,400
Speaker 4: The free agency starts next week, so we can't do

946
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 4: it right now. I mean we can't.

947
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 1: You can't.

948
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 9: Apt The only thing I don't like is what I've

949
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 9: heard is they're going to try to piecemeal this this

950
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 9: defensive end position again, and it doesn't I don't want

951
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 9: bodies I want one guy you could pencil in to

952
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 9: be able to be the starter to play most of

953
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,719
Speaker 9: the snaps. Give me that guy who's really good. I

954
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 9: don't want free good guys. Give me one great player

955
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 9: at that position, and then you could have a couple

956
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,400
Speaker 9: of good guys on the other side.

957
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 1: All Right, I think thanks for the call.

958
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:23,120
Speaker 6: Now.

959
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 4: I usually I would I would sit and argue with

960
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:28,399
Speaker 4: you and kind of went off for a little bit.

961
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 4: We can argue about this next week. Let's let's do

962
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 4: the research on that. Because the one guy, the one

963
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:40,680
Speaker 4: guy that you're talking about this here recently, those teams

964
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 4: aren't winning. You know, you just saw a Super Bowl team,

965
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,760
Speaker 4: both of them with with a bunch of guys not

966
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:53,360
Speaker 4: not really like a bona fide you know, stud pass rusher.

967
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,799
Speaker 4: There was a stat two years ago where the top

968
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 4: five pass rushers in the league, none of them they're

969
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:02,000
Speaker 4: teams in make the playoffs. Michah was one of them

970
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 4: with with the Cowboys, Miles Garrett was Was it happened

971
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:07,319
Speaker 4: again this this past year?

972
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:08,480
Speaker 1: TJ. Watt?

973
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:13,760
Speaker 4: This was this is like two years ago. Hendrickson, Crosby, Watt, Garrett, Micah,

974
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 4: none of them made none of them made the playoffs

975
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 4: this year. Micah's team did obviously make the playoffs. I

976
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:21,640
Speaker 4: think t J.

977
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 1: Watt they snuck in there. I mean, I don't. They

978
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,479
Speaker 1: weren't world beaters, but they got in there.

979
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 8: You know.

980
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:31,200
Speaker 4: Obviously Crosby didn't. Then Miles Garrett didn't, you know, And

981
00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 4: I don't have those stats in front of me, but

982
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 4: but you can make that case that these top pass rushers,

983
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 4: it doesn't necessarily mean that they make the playoffs. I

984
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 4: like to do a little bit more of study on

985
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 4: that because I know what it's been the last couple

986
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:50,400
Speaker 4: of years. I don't know long term, uh what it was.

987
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,880
Speaker 4: I mean, you know saw DeMarcus where every year was

988
00:47:53,960 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 4: up there. Didn't mean the Cowboys always were, but it's

989
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 4: still good to have though, you know, he still want

990
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 4: that guy. I'll take my chances. I think I'm with you.

991
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:06,960
Speaker 4: I'm not trying to argue with you on that. I'm

992
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,919
Speaker 4: thinking I'm with you. I'd rather have that one guy

993
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 4: because what I've seen is that one guy makes the

994
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:17,040
Speaker 4: other guys pretty good too, as opposed to if you

995
00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 4: just got a bunch of other guys. I mean, you

996
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,920
Speaker 4: can't have a bunch of solid guys you got to have.

997
00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:24,840
Speaker 4: If you're not going to have an elite pass rusher,

998
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,240
Speaker 4: then you need about three or four that are really good,

999
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,400
Speaker 4: and that might even be more expensive to do that.

1000
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,880
Speaker 1: All right, j R. And Avondale's next.

1001
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:38,359
Speaker 8: He Nick, how you doing hanging in there? Hey? One

1002
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:44,120
Speaker 8: hundred and ninety two days to the first Sunday of football. Hey,

1003
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 8: I got to tell you, I've been a fan since

1004
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:49,400
Speaker 8: Don Meredith and Bob Hayes were playing while I was

1005
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 8: a little kid. You're pulling Brett Pierce out. It's just

1006
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:57,239
Speaker 8: I almost sell off the couch. I would have ever

1007
00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 8: gotten that, and so I am definitely in awe of

1008
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,120
Speaker 8: your knowledge. So excellent, Josh.

1009
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,160
Speaker 1: You know, we thank you. We all have our strengths

1010
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:10,239
Speaker 1: and we all have our weaknesses. I just, yeah, we don't.

1011
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:12,040
Speaker 4: I don't want Chris being getting on the mic telling

1012
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 4: you things that I that I don't do so well.

1013
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 4: So you know what, we all do our things. We

1014
00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:17,880
Speaker 4: all have her we all have our things, we all

1015
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 4: have our quirks.

1016
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 1: All good.

1017
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:22,880
Speaker 8: Yeah. Friends called me to ask me things about Dallas Cowboys,

1018
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 8: and I'm supposed to know all this stuff, and I

1019
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 8: would have never in a million years gotten that. But anyway,

1020
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:34,719
Speaker 8: so about Caleb Downs, I've heard a NFC scout leaked

1021
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 8: this information. Well, what if it was our scout leaked

1022
00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:41,840
Speaker 8: that information to get him to drop to number twelve

1023
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:45,880
Speaker 8: so we can draft him or I don't know about

1024
00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:49,000
Speaker 8: that information or how accurate it is, but if Caleb's down,

1025
00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 8: Caleb Downs is there at twelve, I'm drafting him. Yeah,

1026
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 8: I'm taking him. Remember the guy out of Memphis years ago,

1027
00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,000
Speaker 8: he had something wrong with his need degenitive knee condition

1028
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,280
Speaker 8: and then he wasn't going to play and he went undrafted.

1029
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:05,239
Speaker 8: His name was Ron Leary and he had a He

1030
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,320
Speaker 8: had a pretty good career with the Cowboys. And I

1031
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 8: think the Bronco right another guy. I don't know about

1032
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 8: a possible degenitive knee or any of that. But I'm

1033
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 8: drafting Caleb Downs if he comes out at twelve. But anyway,

1034
00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 8: my question be special teams. We've talked so much about

1035
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 8: defense and that I'm gonna go a different direction special teams.

1036
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,200
Speaker 8: I fully expected there to be a change at the

1037
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:36,680
Speaker 8: special teams coaching level, and I guess Nick Sorenson is

1038
00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 8: still there. So my question to you is good and

1039
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:42,920
Speaker 8: bad on special teams?

1040
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:43,600
Speaker 12: Last year.

1041
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 8: Of course, I think we got spoiled with when Bones

1042
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:50,360
Speaker 8: Fossil was there. But do you think the issue with

1043
00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:55,240
Speaker 8: special teams going the wrong direction? Is it coaching scheme

1044
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 8: or I know there's a certain core of players that

1045
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 8: play special teams and that's a group of players that

1046
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:05,080
Speaker 8: turn that they churn a lot. Do we need to

1047
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 8: look at those players? Maybe? I know we're talking a

1048
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:12,239
Speaker 8: lot about all these important positions, so that's important too.

1049
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:14,399
Speaker 8: So do we need to look at getting some better

1050
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:16,640
Speaker 8: players in that group or do you think it was coaching? Anyway,

1051
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:20,040
Speaker 8: That's all I got and have a great day, go Cowboy.

1052
00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:22,399
Speaker 4: All right, Thanks appreciated, j R. That's a good question

1053
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 4: about special teams, and I think it's both. I mean,

1054
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:28,600
Speaker 4: I really believe it was a combination of both. I mean,

1055
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 4: you know, Cavante Turpin set the record for most combined

1056
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 4: return yards in Cowboys history.

1057
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:41,280
Speaker 1: Was he special?

1058
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:42,000
Speaker 14: Like?

1059
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:46,279
Speaker 1: Was it really that? I mean, he had one long run.

1060
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,400
Speaker 4: I think I forgot what game it was, you know,

1061
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:52,080
Speaker 4: eighty eighty nine yards eighty or ninety Later in the

1062
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:56,919
Speaker 4: season maybe Washington the Giants game at the last game

1063
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,120
Speaker 4: of the season, didn't score but had a long return

1064
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,480
Speaker 4: of the that he really didn't have a lot of

1065
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 4: big returns. He only had fifty five pump return yards,

1066
00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 4: so it wasn't blocked that well for him. Now the

1067
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 4: numbers came in and the fact that he just had

1068
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 4: so many returns because the defense was so bad and

1069
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,759
Speaker 4: they kept giving up points and people kept kicking off

1070
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 4: and and give Cavante in his one hundred and sixty

1071
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:25,600
Speaker 4: five seventy pounds, you know, give him credit for playing

1072
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:27,880
Speaker 4: all season and you know, taking a lot of hits

1073
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:30,200
Speaker 4: and getting back up and all that kind of stuff.

1074
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,640
Speaker 4: So I think it's a it's a noteworthy record, but

1075
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:35,160
Speaker 4: I think we know why he had so many yards.

1076
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:39,200
Speaker 4: It wasn't because it was getting blocked so perfectly all

1077
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:41,720
Speaker 4: the time. Fifty five pound return yards for a season.

1078
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:44,000
Speaker 4: That show. That shows me a couple of things. Number One,

1079
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 4: you're not stopping anyone and they're not punting. And number two,

1080
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:49,480
Speaker 4: when they are, you know they're they're you know, they're

1081
00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:51,839
Speaker 4: not really given to an opportunity to do a whole lot.

1082
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:53,920
Speaker 4: And when he when there, you know, is that chance

1083
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:59,359
Speaker 4: it wasn't blocked that well personnel wise. Again, I hate

1084
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 4: to keep blaming the defense, but it kind of starts there, right,

1085
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,680
Speaker 4: They couldn't figure out the defense at all. They couldn't

1086
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:07,319
Speaker 4: figure out who needs to be playing on defense, and

1087
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,520
Speaker 4: so you're getting guys brought up from the practice squad

1088
00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:13,839
Speaker 4: all the time, elevated in the middle, you know, of

1089
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 4: the of the week, elevated right before the game, and

1090
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:18,480
Speaker 4: and they have to play defense, and that some of

1091
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:21,879
Speaker 4: them are starting, and you know so so the whole

1092
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 4: special teams part, I think you have a really good

1093
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:26,759
Speaker 4: special teams when you have core players, When you have

1094
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,680
Speaker 4: a core defensive guys and not doing a lot of

1095
00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:33,040
Speaker 4: rotating there, your special teams guys get to kind of

1096
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 4: be there. Not this game they're starting and now they're

1097
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:37,960
Speaker 4: back to special ms.

1098
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:38,279
Speaker 1: It was.

1099
00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:40,880
Speaker 4: It was kind of a mess, and it starts because

1100
00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:44,200
Speaker 4: of the defense. I think if they get more consistency

1101
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 4: on defense, I think you'd get more consistency on special teams.

1102
00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:51,320
Speaker 4: But let's let's be honest. I mean, the scheme blocking

1103
00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:55,560
Speaker 4: part that all could be better as well. All right,

1104
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:57,759
Speaker 4: Ali and Florida's next.

1105
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:01,840
Speaker 6: You pretty good, buddy? How about you?

1106
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:08,040
Speaker 17: Good couple of things. First of all, happy belated birthday.

1107
00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:10,680
Speaker 6: I hope you.

1108
00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:11,839
Speaker 17: Had a wonderful day.

1109
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:12,440
Speaker 12: I did.

1110
00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:14,480
Speaker 1: Thank you good.

1111
00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 17: You know, every birthday we get it's a birthday we

1112
00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:21,800
Speaker 17: didn't have, so I'm.

1113
00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:22,840
Speaker 1: So happy for you.

1114
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:27,279
Speaker 17: Second, I want to put the vote for Irene to

1115
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:31,400
Speaker 17: be a president because she does a lot of stuff.

1116
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 17: So she's just like she always notified us what to do.

1117
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:39,240
Speaker 6: Well not to do stuff. That's great.

1118
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 17: That's my two cents.

1119
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:42,520
Speaker 13: Then thirteing.

1120
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:45,520
Speaker 8: This is a personal level.

1121
00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:50,239
Speaker 17: I don't like Michael Parsons agent because I thought he

1122
00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:53,279
Speaker 17: had a couple of things. You went on ESPN didn't

1123
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:57,759
Speaker 17: say the right thing. But I'm so glad Jerry put

1124
00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:03,120
Speaker 17: the French franchise tagle on ticking, so at least we've

1125
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:07,080
Speaker 17: got the little control versus he.

1126
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:09,560
Speaker 6: Gets another last laugh.

1127
00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:14,960
Speaker 17: The last thing my question to you is this, I'm

1128
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 17: so happy about these coaching staff, defensive coaching staff.

1129
00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:22,359
Speaker 10: On the.

1130
00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:31,920
Speaker 17: On the press conference, one of the reporter asked the

1131
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:37,319
Speaker 17: I had defensive coordinated that are you going to bring

1132
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:41,799
Speaker 17: anybody from Eagles and then it says we don't want

1133
00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:45,919
Speaker 17: to talk about that. Now I have a feeling he's

1134
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 17: going to bring. I mean every coach that brings somebody

1135
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,120
Speaker 17: they know the system. He brings somebody from an Eagles

1136
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 17: and I'm particularly some of these young coaches. What I'm

1137
00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:01,360
Speaker 17: hoping they know a player under the radar, like a

1138
00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 17: Georgia linebacker coach. Then because they have a lot of

1139
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 17: great lonebackers, they give us a little bit of benefit

1140
00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:13,839
Speaker 17: that when we want to sign those lords here free

1141
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:16,880
Speaker 17: ah the daft pick. So because a little bit of

1142
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:19,240
Speaker 17: benefit of little knowledge from any.

1143
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:20,120
Speaker 6: Of these guys.

1144
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 17: So but that's my take. And I just called say

1145
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:28,319
Speaker 17: hello and Bryer from Kansas City. It shuld be the

1146
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:33,279
Speaker 17: most politiest top the color of the storyliner.

1147
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,800
Speaker 1: I love your brother, Thank you so much.

1148
00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 4: You know, I think that that you're right about, you know,

1149
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:46,440
Speaker 4: the familiarity of coaches and the players that they've seen,

1150
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:48,319
Speaker 4: they've coached against some of them. It's not just the

1151
00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:50,839
Speaker 4: guys that coach that that they've coached against and had

1152
00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:54,160
Speaker 4: to prepare for. Man like man sure wouldn't mind having

1153
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:56,759
Speaker 4: that guy. When does he become a free agent? You know,

1154
00:56:57,000 --> 00:57:00,880
Speaker 4: and that that that happens too. So you know, you

1155
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 4: have a wide range of coaches that are they're younger

1156
00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:10,440
Speaker 4: then you haven't been around the league too long. But

1157
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 4: then again, I mean the guys that you're trying to

1158
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:17,439
Speaker 4: get in free agency here that you're drafting. Obviously they're

1159
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:19,560
Speaker 4: in college. Last year, the guys in free agency were

1160
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:21,480
Speaker 4: you know, been in the league for or five years

1161
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:25,040
Speaker 4: for the most part. So it's not like I'm not

1162
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 4: saying that experience isn't good, because it's good in other ways.

1163
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:30,600
Speaker 4: But also, you know, if you've you've got some NFL experience,

1164
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:32,840
Speaker 4: you've been around for a few years. I mean, especially

1165
00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:36,640
Speaker 4: when you're talking about personnel schemes, it's always evolving all

1166
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:38,840
Speaker 4: the time. So I don't think the Cowboys are going

1167
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:41,760
Speaker 4: to be uh short on experience. I think they're gonna

1168
00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:45,280
Speaker 4: have a lot of energy. But you know, it's it's

1169
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:47,120
Speaker 4: all got to got to work out too. I Mean,

1170
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:49,840
Speaker 4: we saw it at training camp, saught a practice. I mean,

1171
00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 4: they do a lot of you know, crazy stuff at

1172
00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:56,120
Speaker 4: practice and and the drills and and some of the

1173
00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,560
Speaker 4: things that you see out there, and you know, it's

1174
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:02,040
Speaker 4: all it all sounds good, you know, but go win

1175
00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 4: some games, you know, and then then you won seven

1176
00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 4: last year, just like you won seven the year before.

1177
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:07,720
Speaker 1: So I'm not.

1178
00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 4: Saying energy won't be the same, but you know, maybe

1179
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:13,640
Speaker 4: let's you know, focus more on on the middle of

1180
00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:16,840
Speaker 4: the week and other things as opposed to going out

1181
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 4: there and running around again. That's not why they didn't

1182
00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaker 4: win games, It's just that there's different approaches. You'll see

1183
00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:25,880
Speaker 4: a different approach this year with with what they're what

1184
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,000
Speaker 4: they're doing. All right, let's go to break real quick

1209
00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:51,840
Speaker 4: little bit, Lester, what's up about?

1210
00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:54,120
Speaker 19: Hey?

1211
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:55,040
Speaker 6: Good morning neck?

1212
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 1: Are you?

1213
00:59:57,400 --> 00:59:58,200
Speaker 6: I'm doing good?

1214
00:59:58,400 --> 00:59:58,600
Speaker 5: Man?

1215
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:02,560
Speaker 6: I didn't get a chance to get in last week,

1216
01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:07,479
Speaker 6: but uh, you know, of the callers sounded good. Hey,

1217
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:10,520
Speaker 6: But on the which you would you rather think? I

1218
01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:13,160
Speaker 6: would rather have we got a lot of holes of seal,

1219
01:00:13,320 --> 01:00:18,400
Speaker 6: so I would rather have the two linebackers and the

1220
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 6: guy from Cincinnati I think Hendrix is his name, if

1221
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 6: that's the scenario, because we got a lot of holes

1222
01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 6: the feal and I feel like we need to go

1223
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:30,360
Speaker 6: ahead and pay pickings man, because.

1224
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:32,480
Speaker 5: The things that we're not talking about.

1225
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:34,520
Speaker 6: And I'm not there, I don't I don't know for sure,

1226
01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:37,680
Speaker 6: but it seems like from afar this is the thing

1227
01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:40,160
Speaker 6: we don't talk about it seems like Pickens is like

1228
01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:44,720
Speaker 6: an inspiration to the at least the offense. And sometimes

1229
01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:48,120
Speaker 6: that even though you know people have baggage or whatever,

1230
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:51,080
Speaker 6: sometimes that that that that that holds a lot of

1231
01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:54,520
Speaker 6: water man, and we're not talking about that part. It

1232
01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:59,200
Speaker 6: seems like, I mean, dak is saying, hey sign a guy,

1233
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:01,720
Speaker 6: guy say hey sign, we got to sign and the

1234
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:04,720
Speaker 6: running back when he said pay Pickings, and so it

1235
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:08,840
Speaker 6: just seems like he's an inspiration, and that's something we

1236
01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:11,840
Speaker 6: don't talk about. Man. So that's why I say, you know,

1237
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:13,640
Speaker 6: go ahead and pay him a course if you want

1238
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:16,280
Speaker 6: one hundred million dollars, you know, don't do that. I mean,

1239
01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:18,640
Speaker 6: you know that's obvious, but well he does.

1240
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:23,960
Speaker 1: I mean over over three years maybe or or even

1241
01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 1: probably two and a half.

1242
01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:28,360
Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, illion a year.

1243
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:31,000
Speaker 4: I know what you mean. I know what you mean.

1244
01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:35,680
Speaker 4: And you know, you know lesser. There's there's two sides

1245
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:40,040
Speaker 4: to that, because when you get paid the contract like that,

1246
01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 4: you know, and whatever whatever the base salary is. Let's

1247
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:45,760
Speaker 4: say the base salary is thirty four million a year.

1248
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:49,240
Speaker 4: Let's say that was his base salary. Well, it's you know,

1249
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:52,640
Speaker 4: every I think it's usually they get divided by seventeen

1250
01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:56,520
Speaker 4: you know, paychecks. Maybe it's eighteen now, but about seventeen paychecks,

1251
01:01:56,720 --> 01:02:00,640
Speaker 4: it's that's two million a year, consistently, two million every Tuesday.

1252
01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:04,000
Speaker 4: That's what you get paid consistently. So you're talking about

1253
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:07,160
Speaker 4: the what what he brings to the table, which is,

1254
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 4: you know, the the emotional part of it. Okay, that's fine,

1255
01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 4: as long as it's the same as that paycheck and

1256
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:16,720
Speaker 4: it's consistent, and that that's what we all struggle with,

1257
01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:19,320
Speaker 4: right some days, we have good days, we have bad days. Whatever,

1258
01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 4: what was going on in Detroit? Where was it that day?

1259
01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:26,320
Speaker 4: CD was hurt and he had to be out of

1260
01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:30,400
Speaker 4: the game. Where was he that day? Now, the first

1261
01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:32,880
Speaker 4: three or four games that Seed got hurt, he stepped

1262
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 4: it up. There's no doubt about it, Carolina. They were

1263
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:36,160
Speaker 4: walking through the motions.

1264
01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:36,720
Speaker 1: He wasn't.

1265
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:39,960
Speaker 4: He was jumping over people and scoring touchdowns. So Detroit

1266
01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:42,160
Speaker 4: was kind of a weird game for the most part.

1267
01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:42,800
Speaker 1: He brought it.

1268
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:45,320
Speaker 4: But if you're gonna ask for that kind of money

1269
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 4: and you're gonna get it consistently, then he needs to

1270
01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:50,760
Speaker 4: be that way as well. And that whole offense does.

1271
01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:53,160
Speaker 4: And I'm not saying they won't be This isn't picking

1272
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:56,280
Speaker 4: on him. I mean, I'm just saying, you know, he's

1273
01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 4: done everything he's done in his rookie contract, and he

1274
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 4: made about three million last year and all that. You know,

1275
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:04,080
Speaker 4: he got fined a lot, He gave a lot of

1276
01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:07,560
Speaker 4: money back because he was late for this, late for that,

1277
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,640
Speaker 4: missed this, missed that. But he kept making those plays

1278
01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:12,920
Speaker 4: and then you kind of just deal with it. You

1279
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,520
Speaker 4: wonder about what happens when you're making thirty million a

1280
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 4: year or more than that. What is going to be

1281
01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:22,120
Speaker 4: the driving force for him? But he's got a maturity

1282
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 4: is an issue with all these young players. He's one

1283
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:28,520
Speaker 4: of them. But again, is he worth it? Is he

1284
01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:30,880
Speaker 4: worth it with the what he does on the field?

1285
01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:32,880
Speaker 1: And I think he is. I think the Cowboys think

1286
01:03:32,920 --> 01:03:33,360
Speaker 1: he is too.

1287
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:42,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, hey man, I'm sure Jerry and the brain

1288
01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:46,000
Speaker 6: trust they're going to make the good decisions this year.

1289
01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,480
Speaker 6: I just feel like this is a little different and

1290
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:51,680
Speaker 6: I'm a little apprehensive myself, like a lot of people

1291
01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:54,800
Speaker 6: are saying, but I'm on the more of the positive

1292
01:03:54,800 --> 01:03:57,440
Speaker 6: side of it. Looks like there's a difference. Looks like

1293
01:03:57,560 --> 01:03:59,880
Speaker 6: Jerry got in that Dolory in again and went back

1294
01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:06,280
Speaker 6: to the early nineties, and I got some advice from

1295
01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:09,120
Speaker 6: younger Jerry, So I think it'll be all right, man,

1296
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:10,760
Speaker 6: go Cowboys.

1297
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:14,440
Speaker 4: All right, see you appreciate the call, Lester. Let's go

1298
01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:16,640
Speaker 4: to Nick in Austin.

1299
01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:20,160
Speaker 19: Hey, Nick, how you doing good?

1300
01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:22,080
Speaker 1: How are you good?

1301
01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:22,560
Speaker 5: Thank you?

1302
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 19: A couple of things real quick, Happy bladd birthday.

1303
01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:28,120
Speaker 1: Thank you appreciate that.

1304
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,440
Speaker 19: And I also wanted to say thanks to the Cowboys

1305
01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:34,720
Speaker 19: organization that you and Derek Eagleton at Chris and you know,

1306
01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:36,400
Speaker 19: for allowing the fans to be able to call it,

1307
01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 19: because this is something truly special.

1308
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:40,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we'll thank you that.

1309
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:45,160
Speaker 19: And then yeah, and a couple of things. I'm just

1310
01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:46,840
Speaker 19: trying to be fast that somebody else can get on.

1311
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:51,080
Speaker 19: Christian Parker is going to change a lot of things.

1312
01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:54,960
Speaker 19: My question to you real quick, because they always talk

1313
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:57,240
Speaker 19: about size, that we have speed, that we're too small,

1314
01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:00,560
Speaker 19: and I think there's something to that. I think our

1315
01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:03,480
Speaker 19: linebackers have been too small. I think the last piece

1316
01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:07,560
Speaker 19: acize the linebacker we have was late Vandersch and when

1317
01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:10,200
Speaker 19: he was healthy, you saw the success he had. I

1318
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:13,640
Speaker 19: mean he you know, tight ends weren't a problem. You

1319
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:17,920
Speaker 19: got these big running backs for the problem. I believe

1320
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:22,360
Speaker 19: that Overshown is too small. He's he's tall or too skinny.

1321
01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 19: I think he's very athletic. If it was me, I

1322
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:29,680
Speaker 19: would move him to box safety. I don't know what

1323
01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:32,280
Speaker 19: you think about that. And then one other person that

1324
01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 19: I would move Sam Williams. He's not a great defensive end.

1325
01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:40,320
Speaker 19: I don't know if it's the pass rush skills that

1326
01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:43,600
Speaker 19: he's lacking. He's great on special teams, but I think

1327
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:45,760
Speaker 19: if you could put him in some kind of a

1328
01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:48,920
Speaker 19: linebacker role where he could just run and hit, I

1329
01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:51,560
Speaker 19: think he'd be great. So thank you very much, and I'll.

1330
01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 4: Listen appreciate that, you know, as a playing multiple schemes.

1331
01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 4: I mean, that's one of the things that they that

1332
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:01,400
Speaker 4: we've heard a lot of here in the last few

1333
01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:04,360
Speaker 4: weeks since they they brought on Christian Parker. You know,

1334
01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:07,840
Speaker 4: three four is going to be like the base defense.

1335
01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:12,400
Speaker 4: So you wonder where certain guys, especially the guys that

1336
01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 4: you would call a tweener. Sam Williams would be one

1337
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:19,160
Speaker 4: of those. You know, he's not really a defensive end body.

1338
01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:19,960
Speaker 1: He's not.

1339
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:23,920
Speaker 4: He's a little bit bigger for an outside linebacker, and

1340
01:06:23,960 --> 01:06:26,720
Speaker 4: that's kind of what a three four outside linebacker rusher is.

1341
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,960
Speaker 4: Overshown looks like you said, he's kind of light for

1342
01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:34,800
Speaker 4: a linebacker. He'd be a little bulky for safety. He's

1343
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:38,520
Speaker 4: a tweener. Marquise Bell is another one like that. So

1344
01:06:38,600 --> 01:06:41,720
Speaker 4: you wonder about this defense is it going to have

1345
01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:45,400
Speaker 4: some of those type of guys. Now you mentioned Sam Williams.

1346
01:06:45,480 --> 01:06:47,360
Speaker 4: I think we have to point out he's an unrestricted

1347
01:06:47,360 --> 01:06:49,720
Speaker 4: free agent, so he's gonna probably hit free agency here.

1348
01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:54,400
Speaker 4: I don't know the plans for him. Maybe you never know,

1349
01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:56,720
Speaker 4: you know, I've told the flows l Adams Stroy, you

1350
01:06:56,840 --> 01:07:00,120
Speaker 4: never know. With Christian Parker and these guys come in

1351
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:01,520
Speaker 4: and be like, we're gonna sign this guy.

1352
01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:02,320
Speaker 1: I mean, he'd be.

1353
01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:05,640
Speaker 4: Perfect for you don't know, or it could be hey,

1354
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:07,520
Speaker 4: let's let's you know, it's time to kind of move

1355
01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:10,080
Speaker 4: on and and uh, you know, go go a different

1356
01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:12,919
Speaker 4: direction here. So uh, you know, he needs to he'll

1357
01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:14,720
Speaker 4: get a chance to test test the market and there'll

1358
01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 4: be some of some of those. But I your shot.

1359
01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:21,760
Speaker 4: He was was asked about linebacker. He's first guy you

1360
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:25,600
Speaker 4: mentioned was was Overshown. He's excited about the fact that

1361
01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:27,880
Speaker 4: over Shown is going to be healthy in this offseason.

1362
01:07:28,160 --> 01:07:31,120
Speaker 4: I mean that that's he that hasn't happened. You know,

1363
01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:34,960
Speaker 4: he hasn't had knowledge, he hasn't had game experience and

1364
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:39,280
Speaker 4: off season health ever in his career because when he

1365
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:42,920
Speaker 4: he was here his rookie year and then he got

1366
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:45,240
Speaker 4: hurt in the preseason, but he had never played in

1367
01:07:45,240 --> 01:07:47,200
Speaker 4: the game, and so he, you know, you didn't really

1368
01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:50,600
Speaker 4: know what to expect. Every other year that he's been here,

1369
01:07:50,640 --> 01:07:54,400
Speaker 4: he's been having the rehabit injury in the offseason. So

1370
01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:59,800
Speaker 4: the combination of health and experience is not anything that

1371
01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:02,800
Speaker 4: he's had before. Now another thing, and this is no

1372
01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:05,680
Speaker 4: different over Shown. This is his fourth year and this

1373
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 4: is his fourth defensive coordinator. So that's that's what the

1374
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:13,880
Speaker 4: issue has been for defense and the inconsistencies there. But good,

1375
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:16,720
Speaker 4: good call. Appreciate that. Let's see if we have any

1376
01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:19,719
Speaker 4: other callers, are we Chris? We got another caller?

1377
01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:22,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jeremy and salt Lake. There we go. Jeremy salt Lake.

1378
01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:23,400
Speaker 1: What's up, Bud?

1379
01:08:23,840 --> 01:08:24,760
Speaker 12: Hey, what's going on?

1380
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:25,040
Speaker 16: Nick?

1381
01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:25,880
Speaker 1: How are you?

1382
01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:27,080
Speaker 19: I'm good?

1383
01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:27,599
Speaker 12: I'm good.

1384
01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:28,760
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1385
01:08:28,760 --> 01:08:30,639
Speaker 12: I just kind of wanted to touch base, I knowing

1386
01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:31,960
Speaker 12: in a lot of time here, so I'll try to

1387
01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:36,280
Speaker 12: be quick. But as far as like I'd love how

1388
01:08:36,479 --> 01:08:40,680
Speaker 12: after every year, you know, well free agency is going on.

1389
01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:43,960
Speaker 12: We can be critical as we want, as far as

1390
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,240
Speaker 12: the front office is spending money not spending money. But

1391
01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:50,800
Speaker 12: how about we look back at last year now and

1392
01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:53,720
Speaker 12: look at all these signings that you know a lot

1393
01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:56,519
Speaker 12: of Cowboys fans got upset about, you know, especially like

1394
01:08:56,600 --> 01:09:01,000
Speaker 12: with the Commanders. You know, half the guys they signed

1395
01:09:01,040 --> 01:09:05,280
Speaker 12: last year they're not bringing back, right, So this thing

1396
01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:07,080
Speaker 12: can work two ways for you. You can go out and

1397
01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:10,600
Speaker 12: spend all this money and then miss the playoffs like

1398
01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:14,240
Speaker 12: Washington did and have a horrible season and then have no.

1399
01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:16,160
Speaker 13: You know what I mean.

1400
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:17,719
Speaker 12: Now you're going to be paying all this dead money

1401
01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 12: from cutting all these players, So be careful what you

1402
01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:22,160
Speaker 12: wish for. I guess is what you're saying. Is what

1403
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:26,240
Speaker 12: I'm saying, because there's there's two ends to every every

1404
01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:28,360
Speaker 12: decision that you make. And it's easy for us to

1405
01:09:28,400 --> 01:09:30,360
Speaker 12: sit back and second guess to the front office and

1406
01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:34,599
Speaker 12: Jerry Cenile and over the hill all this kind of crap, right,

1407
01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:36,800
Speaker 12: But at the end of the day, dude, go back

1408
01:09:36,840 --> 01:09:39,320
Speaker 12: and look at the last three three four years, these

1409
01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:42,240
Speaker 12: teams that really went out and made splash in free agency,

1410
01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:45,160
Speaker 12: and did they really go anywhere? Did they really do

1411
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:47,360
Speaker 12: anything with it? So I just want us to make

1412
01:09:47,400 --> 01:09:51,680
Speaker 12: the right signings, right, That's that's for me. So you know,

1413
01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:54,120
Speaker 12: maybe not just get caught up in the numbers so much.

1414
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:58,759
Speaker 12: But like I said, I'll be brief, right, take it offline, take.

1415
01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:02,920
Speaker 4: Reasbreak good call and uh, and you're exactly right. And

1416
01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:05,040
Speaker 4: you don't even have to look at other teams. Just

1417
01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:07,320
Speaker 4: look at the Cowboys. Just look at look at last year.

1418
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 4: I wrote down some of the additions. I'm I think

1419
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:14,960
Speaker 4: I'm missing some here. But I have enough to work

1420
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:18,599
Speaker 4: with for sure. I have, you know, eight eight guys

1421
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:23,120
Speaker 4: that they they added, and and when you think about it, everything,

1422
01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:25,519
Speaker 4: you know, there's good, there's bad, there's good, there's bad.

1423
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:28,840
Speaker 4: I mean that's it's about fifty percent just just last year.

1424
01:10:29,560 --> 01:10:32,160
Speaker 4: You know who did they bring in? Well, they traded

1425
01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:36,559
Speaker 4: for Pickens. Wow, Okay, we'll see, we'll see what he does.

1426
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:39,520
Speaker 4: He's been he's been kind of dynamic at times for Pittsburgh,

1427
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:43,439
Speaker 4: you know, a little different. Hopefully he fits with the

1428
01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:46,120
Speaker 4: Cowboys well. And then fast forward. And then now they

1429
01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:50,280
Speaker 4: franchise tag so that worked. Great move, Okay, well who

1430
01:10:50,280 --> 01:10:54,439
Speaker 4: else they trade for? Kenneth Murray didn't work, didn't work

1431
01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:56,040
Speaker 4: the same. He was out there, he was the best

1432
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:58,960
Speaker 4: that they had, but it wasn't It wasn't good enough.

1433
01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:03,920
Speaker 4: They added you Ante what, Okay, Wow, great great pickup.

1434
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:08,280
Speaker 4: They added Jack Sanborn, Nah, not not so good. They

1435
01:11:08,360 --> 01:11:12,000
Speaker 4: added Kayerrie Elam. He didn't even make it to the

1436
01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:15,559
Speaker 4: end of the season. They added Joe Milton. Kind of

1437
01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:17,479
Speaker 4: neutral on that. I think it worked. He was your

1438
01:11:17,479 --> 01:11:19,439
Speaker 4: backup quarterback, so I think you would you would say

1439
01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:22,240
Speaker 4: that that that worked. It helped that Dak played every

1440
01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:25,400
Speaker 4: snap or every game. But but you know, I think

1441
01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:27,840
Speaker 4: you could say that that that was pretty good move

1442
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:30,160
Speaker 4: there for him being the backup. Then in the middle

1443
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:32,559
Speaker 4: of the season, they traded for Logan Wilson. That didn't

1444
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:35,559
Speaker 4: really work. They traded for Quinn Williams. That did work,

1445
01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:37,720
Speaker 4: and that's gonna be good. So my point is I

1446
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:39,479
Speaker 4: just named eight guys that but four of them you

1447
01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:42,200
Speaker 4: would put over here is good decisions. Four of them

1448
01:11:42,240 --> 01:11:44,920
Speaker 4: you said no, not so much. So going into free

1449
01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:49,320
Speaker 4: agency this year, just remember that's probably what's gonna happen here.

1450
01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:51,479
Speaker 4: I mean, you're you're gonna hit, You're gonna get some misses,

1451
01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:54,280
Speaker 4: you're gonna get some wins, and I would expect that,

1452
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:56,560
Speaker 4: you know, I mean, you you want, you want to

1453
01:11:56,600 --> 01:11:59,320
Speaker 4: do better than, you know than most, and you'd certainly

1454
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:00,920
Speaker 4: want to win more than and then you lose. But

1455
01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:04,080
Speaker 4: just remember, even last year when they added Yavante, they

1456
01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:07,280
Speaker 4: added Pickings, you could still say there were some moves

1457
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:09,960
Speaker 4: that are that were didn't work out, you know, so

1458
01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:12,120
Speaker 4: well so, and I know there were some other guys.

1459
01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:15,679
Speaker 4: Dante Fowler was also in there and you know, kind

1460
01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:16,720
Speaker 4: of neutral there as well.

1461
01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:18,559
Speaker 1: He didn't have he have a great season.

1462
01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:21,880
Speaker 4: Then you can add Clowney later on and that that

1463
01:12:21,960 --> 01:12:24,080
Speaker 4: did turn out to be good. So I really think

1464
01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 4: if you just keep playing this game, it's it's probably

1465
01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:29,000
Speaker 4: it's gonna be fifty to fifty there. So hopefully the

1466
01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:31,600
Speaker 4: Cowboys can improve on that. But but that's even in

1467
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:33,960
Speaker 4: a good year, it was still there were some misses

1468
01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:37,479
Speaker 4: there too. Anyways, great great call was all day long.

1469
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:37,760
Speaker 1: Guys.

1470
01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:40,040
Speaker 4: You guys did a great job. We had twelve calls.

1471
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,360
Speaker 4: Appreciate that. We'll be back to do it next week now,

Speaker 4: next week it'll be the first day of free agencies,

1473
01:12:46,240 --> 01:12:47,920
Speaker 4: so that that should be a lot of fun. And

1474
01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:49,960
Speaker 4: there'll be a lot of things already kind of happening

1475
01:12:50,520 --> 01:12:53,000
Speaker 4: that week, so that should be a fun show. Look

1476
