It is day 17 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 5: one of the NFL calendar year that will start today 18 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 5: at three and it will begin with lots of teams 19 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 5: making final I guess, finalizing deals that would have been 20 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 5: kind of been happening over the last. 21 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 3: Two days and right. 22 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 5: And there is one notable exception to that, and that's 23 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 5: where we're going to start today because I think it 24 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 5: probably took. As I told my wife last night, the 25 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 5: NFL is melting down right now. Because I've never in 26 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 5: the twenty five years i've been associated with this team 27 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 5: in the NFL on an official capacity, I've never seen 28 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 5: anything like this, and I think it's it's probably something 29 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 5: that is more prone to happen in today's world because 30 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 5: the NFL has this tampering period where essentially there are 31 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 5: two days where teams can meet with players and they 32 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 5: can sign players, or let me say, they can agree 33 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 5: to terms with players, but nothing becomes official until today, Wednesday, 34 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 5: at three pm. And this has been going on since Monday. 35 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 5: So when Max Crosby is reportedly traded from the Las 36 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 5: Vegas Raiders to the Baltimore Ravens for two first round 37 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,519 Speaker 5: picks on I think that happened on Monday or was 38 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 5: it Sunday? It was Monday, Monday, Monday, it was Monday. 39 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 5: So when it happens on Monday, we all assume that's happening. 40 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 5: All the NFL teams assume that's happening. Teams move on, 41 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 5: like the Cowboys who were reportedly involved in some of 42 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 5: those discussions to maybe acquire Max Crosby. 43 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 2: But they move on. Every other team moves on, and then. 44 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 5: Last night we get the word that Baltimore has decided 45 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 5: they're not going to do this, and he reverts back 46 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 5: to the Raiders because again, they can do that. And 47 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 5: I do want to preface this conversation before we get 48 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 5: into opinions and thoughts on this. All of this, all 49 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 5: of the conversation that we're going to have, is really 50 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 5: based on what we know publicly. Sure my guess is 51 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 5: that there is probably there are probably a lot of 52 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 5: very substantial talking points on this matter that are not public. 53 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 5: Baltimore is not said officially why they didn't go through 54 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 5: with this deal. We can make assumptions about that, but 55 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 5: they've not said neither has Las Vegas. Las Vegas hasn't 56 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 5: said publicly why this thing fell apart. Teams like the Cowboys, 57 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 5: who were at one point involved, have not spoken publicly 58 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 5: about this. So I think I just want to be clear, 59 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 5: whatever we're talking about, a lot of this is going 60 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 5: to be based on what we know publicly and our 61 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 5: own opinions about those things, and in some instance that 62 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 5: could be a little bit unfair because we may not 63 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 5: know all the details. That being said, let's talk about 64 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 5: from the standpoint of the Cowboys. I want to start 65 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 5: first with when you heard Max Crosby got traded for 66 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 5: two first round picks. Did you think, yeah, okay, that's great, 67 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 5: I would have given it up, or did you think 68 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 5: Cowboys should have given up too first. 69 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 6: I don't think they're in a position to give up 70 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 6: to first and Max Crosby's an incredible player. He would 71 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 6: easily boost your defense incredibly, But I don't think Dallas 72 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 6: is in a position to give up that much capital. 73 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 3: Let me just say this, first of all, Derek set 74 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 3: that up perfectly because he know I might come on 75 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 3: here and say something reckless, so he just laid the table. 76 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 2: Don't say something reckless. 77 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna be crazy crazy, but Derek, just be reckless. Hey, y'all, 78 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 3: we don't know nothing, y'all, we just publicly. But you 79 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 3: did a great job setting it up. I disagree with 80 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 3: brother Thimett. They can have the picks. They can have 81 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 3: the picks, and I think twelve and twenty this year, 82 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: just talking about Cowboy picks twelve and twenty is different 83 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 3: than twelve and twenty other years. Like me and Tommy 84 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 3: have been doing draft work and I'm looking at the 85 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 3: players that would be available to the Cowboys at twelve 86 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 3: and twenty versus players that would be available at twelve 87 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 3: and twenty in previous years, I don't think that this 88 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 3: is a class that stacks up to those classes in 89 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 3: that way. So in my mind, I'm going, Okay, there's 90 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 3: no Rashawn Slater here, there's no Michael Parsons is here. 91 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 3: In some other years you can get Jared Versu at nineteen. Overall, 92 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 3: I don't think that's this kind of year. I think 93 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 3: that Max Crosby would have been such an impact on 94 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 3: this team, and I think, no matter what you would 95 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 3: have done at twelve and twenty, and I know the 96 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 3: conversation around it is a first round pick, you get 97 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 3: cheap labor for five years, and there's a twelve year 98 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 3: outlook for first round picks. I'm more concerned about the 99 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 3: next three to five years because my quarterback is in 100 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 3: that window. So I was like, give them the picks, cool, 101 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 3: and we'll figure it out later. So when I heard 102 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 3: that Baltimore had given up the one and next year's one, 103 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 3: I was like, damn, my twelve and twenty better than that, 104 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 3: or maybe, like, by the math, my twelve may be 105 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 3: better than both those picks. Baltimore is twenty something and 106 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 3: next Year's one. I would say that twelve mathematically is 107 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 3: better than both those picks. So I was upset that 108 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 3: we didn't land Max because I was thinking about the impact. 109 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 3: Plus no matter what edge that you bring in pairing 110 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 3: that dude with Quinn Williams was gonna be ridiculous. So 111 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 3: I was quite upset the Cowboys missed out. 112 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 7: I would not give two first round picks. No, I 113 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 7: mean for me to give you to first round, you 114 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 7: have to your body be optimal position like, no surgeries, 115 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 7: no concerns that all whatsoever. You better have a complete 116 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,799 Speaker 7: fresh body. And I love the experience, but two first 117 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 7: round picks us way too high. Now I'm curious, what 118 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 7: are the reports currently that they're not looking for making 119 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 7: trades at all with him that involve him at this point. 120 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 5: Well, I think there are reports that the Cowboys aren't 121 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 5: necessarily well. The first report is that the Raiders are saying, 122 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 5: at this point, we're good. We will just rehab him 123 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 5: and we are looking forward to him being on our team, 124 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 5: which I think is an interesting prospect because if you 125 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 5: look at free agency, the Raiders have probably spent more 126 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 5: money and gotten more players in free agency than anybody 127 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 5: else in the NFL, they basically remade their team if 128 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 5: they can, and they had a ton of money under 129 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 5: the cap. 130 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 2: If they can remake their team and then keep. 131 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 5: Max Crosby as a part of that, I think the 132 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 5: Raiders immediately become a team that you gotta kind of 133 00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 5: pay some attention to, at least on the DEFENSI side 134 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 5: of them. I still don't know what you know. Do 135 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 5: they feel good about their quarterback? Do they feel good 136 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 5: about their off like? I don't have any idea there, 137 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 5: But defensively they got pieces. 138 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 4: Now. 139 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 5: I think they got two linebackers that are arguably two 140 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 5: of the best, the best one of the better tandems 141 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 5: in the NFL. So so if they decided to keep 142 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 5: Max Crosby, which it sounds like that's the report, is 143 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 5: that they're they're just like which at this point they 144 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 5: probably have to say, right. But but if that's really 145 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 5: what they're gonna do, it's probably not a bad idea. 146 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 5: The other part to that, though, is from your from 147 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 5: from the question you're asking, there are reports that the 148 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 5: Cowboys are or what we've already gone down the road 149 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 5: with Shaw Gary. We're we're gonna stick there. We're not 150 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 5: We're not necessarily looking to double down, and they that 151 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 5: was actually that report came out after they got Gary 152 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 5: and and max Is already off the table. They were 153 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 5: still like, I don't think the report was I don't 154 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 5: think they're gonna double down at this point and go 155 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 5: back and get a high price, because I think it 156 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 5: was more pointing towards Trey Hendrickson. They weren't willing necessarily 157 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 5: double down and spend even more money on a defensive 158 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 5: end or more resources on a defensive end when they 159 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 5: felt like they kind of addressed it with or they 160 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 5: feel like they addressed it with Geary. 161 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 7: I know there was a lot of hype around that 162 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 7: conversation when it was initially being reported that the Cowboys 163 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 7: had interest, But now that we're here and the more 164 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 7: I think about it, I'm just like, I want zero 165 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 7: doubts if I'm making that big of a trade. If 166 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 7: I was the Cowboys and like, let's say with two 167 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 7: first round picks, I'm like, I want zero doubts, no 168 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 7: health issues whatsoever. I don't want to come. I want 169 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 7: to know that it will not be a problem. And 170 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 7: the guy that I'm getting that I'm getting, we know 171 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 7: what kind of player he is. But that he's going 172 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 7: to be available the whole season. Obviously, you never know 173 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 7: what can happen, but I want someone that I can 174 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 7: trust their health. 175 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Max's health is going to be fine 176 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 3: in the see. I think he'll be ready for camp. 177 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 2: And it's a but do you know that? Because here's 178 00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 2: why I say that, please. 179 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 5: It is because it seems as though at least there 180 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 5: is some smoke around the idea that once once medicals 181 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 5: were reviewed by doctors, that was when it all fall apart. Again, 182 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 5: we're talking about what public reports are. 183 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: If that's the case. 184 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 5: If that's the case, then it might he might be 185 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 5: physically ready to play by the beginning of training camp. 186 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 5: Question would be will he be Max Crosby? And if 187 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 5: you're giving up two first round picks, the expectation is 188 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 5: not only is he going to be Max Crosby for 189 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 5: the beginning of the season. 190 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 2: Sure, he's gonna be Max. 191 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 5: Crosby in twenty twenty seven, in twenty twenty eight, like, 192 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 5: you need years of him being Max Crosby in order 193 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 5: to make it worthwhile to give up two first round picks. 194 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 5: If there are medical concerns that make you say, yeah, 195 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 5: it's questionable, if he's going to be back, it's questionable. 196 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 5: Or let's even assume he's going to be back, it's 197 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 5: questionable whether he's gonna be Max Crosby, and it's question 198 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 5: whether he can be Max Acrossby for an extended period 199 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 5: of time. 200 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 3: So let's say this a team's medical evaluation subjective. It's 201 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 3: going to vary per team. 202 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 2: YEP. 203 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 3: I think the Ravens were probably out on it because 204 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 3: of the the actual picks, like, hey man were giving 205 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 3: up these two ones. We want da da da da 206 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 3: da da da Max And I've said this online before. 207 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 3: Max didn't pull himself out because he was hurt. The 208 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 3: Ravens pulled him and he was mad. Max was ready 209 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 3: to play. Max was ready to just play, hurt like 210 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 3: he was fine. So I don't think this is some 211 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 3: I don't think there's like a ACL injury or something 212 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 3: like that, or he's torn three different cls in his 213 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 3: knees something. It's it's a moniscus. There may be some 214 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 3: long term stuff that you may have to worry about, 215 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 3: but like I said earlier, my window is three to. 216 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: Five, right. But here's here's the question. 217 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 5: Again, Sure we don't know for sure, but let's assume 218 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 5: that they got there, looked at it, and they said, 219 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 5: you know, this also revealed that there's kind of a 220 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 5: degenerative thing that's going on here. And our expectation is 221 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 5: he might be able to come back for this season. 222 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 5: But this is always going to be a nagging problem. 223 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 5: It will affect his his his burst, it will affect 224 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 5: all those things. How do we know that that's not 225 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 5: the case. 226 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 3: I think Max is so phenomenal, And first to your 227 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 3: first question, I don't care about your year fifteen. 228 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 5: Max, I don't either. I care about I care about 229 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 5: twenty six, twenty seven, twenty eight. 230 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 3: For next three. Yeah, I think Max just my personal opinion. 231 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 3: I'm no doctor. I'm not doctor Cooper or what the 232 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 3: name is? 233 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 8: You know his name? 234 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 4: Man? 235 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 5: I saw you out there say that that dude attract 236 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 5: a man alone, this man. 237 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 3: When I say Derek Ingerson, I don't. I don't think 238 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: this is such an emergency. I'm cars Brown, I don't 239 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 3: think this is I don't think this is such an emergency. 240 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: I think it's my guy. 241 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, for sure, because you're there, we're different. 242 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 3: I don't think that is such an emergency. Because if 243 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 3: that's the case, nobody would be in on Max like 244 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 3: if everybody, because everybody has access to the information, they 245 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 3: could just call hey, doctor Dan, what the busness seals 246 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 3: and doctor Dan to be like, hey, this will think 247 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 3: you make your own decisions. At that point, we would 248 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 3: be hearing reports that everybody's out give the cowboy. 249 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 5: But right now, right now, sure nobody's in because nothing 250 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 5: has changed publicly, we don't know. 251 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 2: That, right but right, that's my point. 252 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 5: I want to be regular but making no But here's 253 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 5: here's my point. Show nobody's jumping in to say, well, 254 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 5: we'll give up those. 255 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 3: Two ones because of the discount associated with it, right, 256 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 3: evens gave up? How about this? What if it was 257 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 3: a two and a three? 258 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 2: Then what right? 259 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 3: And three? 260 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 5: And again I think that's the part of the conversation, 261 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 5: sure where I'm interested to know what is the new 262 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 5: price because everything everything I've heard from publicly from the 263 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 5: Raiders is he's gonna be with us. But the reports 264 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,599 Speaker 5: are they're not backing off the two ones. Sure, and 265 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 5: and if that's the case, it doesn't sound like there 266 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 5: are teams that are standing in line like a Honestly, 267 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 5: I think they I think they only ended up with 268 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 5: one team that was willing to give two ones in 269 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 5: the first place. Sure, that's my personal picture, sure, right, 270 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 5: in which case, when that team backed out, I think 271 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 5: everybody else was like, all right, we'll see where this lands. 272 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 2: But I ain't giving up two ones. 273 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 3: So let me like break this time. I know you 274 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 3: want to jump in here. Let me just break this 275 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 3: because we kind of hit a bunch of things right there. Right, 276 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 3: if the price was a two, ain't nobody saying a 277 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 3: damn thing about his burst or whatever? 278 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 2: Yes, because that's that's a risk of taking. 279 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,199 Speaker 3: Sure. Yes, so let's erase that we worried about his 280 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 3: health because if it was a two, we don't give 281 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 3: a damn Now. 282 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 5: Well, but you can't do that because the competition matters, 283 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 5: but the compensition matters. 284 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 2: That's a part of the evaluation. 285 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 3: I think the first question is are we comfortable with 286 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 3: his knee? And I'm also a bounce off what Ambar 287 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 3: said too, Are we comfortable with the knee? Right? If 288 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 3: you are comfortable with the knee, then yeah, we have 289 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 3: to talk about like we straight give them give them 290 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 3: I'm not saying give them two. I'm not saying give 291 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 3: them two first round picks. Because the old old price 292 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 3: ain't the new price. But what I'm saying is I 293 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 3: don't want to pretend like, oh, well, this need could 294 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 3: be such a problem now, because if the price was different, 295 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 3: I don't. I don't care about the need. I'm thinking 296 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,319 Speaker 3: about the Cowboys in the next three years. What can 297 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 3: maximize my window and if I got to be super 298 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 3: aggressive and bust the budget if nobody else is let's say, 299 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 3: nobody else offers a one, but I'll give them. 300 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 7: You cannot separate the two. No, you cannot. In this business, 301 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 7: you cannot please. It goes hand in hand. The price 302 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 7: dictates what you're willing to gamble and what you're willing 303 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 7: to put a bet on and say, okay, that is 304 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 7: much more. The reason we've seen cowboys year after years, 305 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 7: Sure go for a second round pick that has some 306 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 7: question marks around their health issues, but they're willing to 307 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 7: take that gamble because this is the second round. So again, 308 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 7: I think the money absolutely one affects the kind of 309 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 7: decisions that you make on a player's health. 310 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 2: Can I give an analogy? Can I give analogy? So 311 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 2: my guess, you tell me if. 312 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 5: You have you shot dice with some homies all the time, 313 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 5: all right, So let me ask you this question, sir. So, 314 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 5: if you know you got a homie that is prone 315 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 5: to cheat, you know he's prone to like messing with 316 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 5: the dice, doing things he's not supposed to do, does 317 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 5: that affect how much money you're willing to put down 318 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 5: on a dice game. 319 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 3: I just bring my own dice because I do that. 320 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 5: That's not what I that's not And so my point is, 321 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 5: and again we are a non gabbling. We don't gamble, 322 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 5: I'm saying, the fact is, the fact is you it 323 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 5: always has to affect how much you're willing to put 324 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 5: in based upon the risk involved. So you can't just 325 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 5: separate those two and say, I'm not going to worry 326 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 5: about the knee right now for the purposes of this conversation. Well, 327 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 5: the knee is a part of the conversation because it 328 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 5: has to be. 329 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 2: A part of it. 330 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 5: It's honestly, it is the same reason why we're going 331 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 5: to get to this in a little bit. It's the 332 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 5: same reason why with Trey Hendrickson, I was a little 333 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 5: bit out because I'm like, with the injury history and 334 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 5: the age, I'm not willing to invest in that kind 335 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 5: of player based on what I need right now, because 336 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 5: he might be able to show up, he might be 337 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 5: able to play the first three games of season. 338 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: Really really well. 339 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 5: I don't trust that by the time we get to 340 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 5: week fifteen he's still gonna be that same player. 341 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 2: That's where that's that's my point. 342 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 3: This is my point, and maybe this summarize is a 343 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 3: little better. I'm not letting Max's knee dictate the price. 344 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 3: I'm comfortable the knee. I'm gonna I'm gonna let the 345 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 3: market do it. I feel decent enough about the knee, 346 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 3: and I want to be so aggressive and I want 347 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 3: Max to play with Quinn Williams so bad. Even if 348 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 3: the price isn't two ones, if everybody else's prices, I'll 349 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 3: give him a two. Cool I got twenty for you 350 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 3: if somebody else's prices, or I got nineteen for him. 351 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 3: Bet I got twelve. You see what I'm saying. Yeah, 352 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 3: but I'm matching the market as opposed to his knee. 353 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 3: I feel fine about the knee. I ain't worried about 354 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 3: the knee. And maybe you don't know because you haven't 355 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 3: seen it. And maybe doctor Cooper can call us right 356 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 3: and now be like ych just a note and then 357 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 3: it'll be a note for me. But I want to 358 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 3: be so aggressive with this thing because even if Max, like, 359 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 3: even if Max can only play half the year, I 360 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 3: need him in. 361 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 5: January and that and that's where when I look at 362 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 5: this situation. And again, if we'ressuming the reports are accurate, 363 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 5: but the Cowboys were in on something as of Monday, 364 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 5: and they needed up getting but they were interested, sure, 365 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 5: and now they're not interested at all. That tells me 366 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 5: there's something has changed in the evaluation. And I have 367 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 5: a hard time thinking it is just that they got Gary. 368 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 5: Because the way I would look at that is if 369 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 5: that was the case, what I would go back to 370 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 5: Baltimore with is I would say, you know, I'm willing 371 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 5: to give you whatever pick. Let's say it's a first 372 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 5: round pick, and what I need you to do is 373 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 5: I need you to give me back and forth. 374 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 3: Sure. 375 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,959 Speaker 5: What that does is that allows me to say, Okay, 376 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 5: I'm not on the hook for any money with Gary. 377 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 5: I can have Gary and I can maybe have Max, 378 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 5: and I'll give up that one. And any event I 379 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 5: get to training camp and I'm like, you know, I 380 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 5: really don't need Gary. 381 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 2: Nothing stops me. 382 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 5: And I got that I didn't lose the fourth round pick, 383 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 5: So for me, I think there's a way to make 384 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 5: that work with Gary. So I just don't know if 385 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 5: I'm all if I believe it. I just feel like 386 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 5: there's more that probably is to this story than everybody 387 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 5: really knows. 388 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 3: And that's the big problem. You're making me debate with 389 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 3: only public knowledge. Right in real life, I think some 390 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 3: nonsense happening over there, and Max is fine, but I 391 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 3: can't say that on this prestigious platform. Derek gig like, 392 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 3: I wouldn't dare say that, But I think I think, 393 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 3: I think Max me Okay, time they go to break time, Okay, 394 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 3: two time. 395 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 8: I was gonna say, based on all the reporting that with. 396 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 9: This guy, this guy the time that you want because 397 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 9: he took all the time police your opinion. 398 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 6: Based on all the reporting that we've seen there is 399 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 6: there should be no surprise to anybody that Max Crosby's 400 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 6: knee is in the condition that it's in. 401 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 8: He had surgery two months ago. 402 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,239 Speaker 6: If we're talking about the physical that everybody, everybody at 403 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 6: this table goes to. 404 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 8: You see your doctor once a year. 405 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 6: If I came in there with the tormentiscus, I'm not 406 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 6: going to get clear to play football. They're too much 407 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 6: removed from surgery, so that that does not appear to 408 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 6: be a shock to anyone. And every team in the 409 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 6: organ in the league that was making offers or complating 410 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 6: offers to the Raiders when he was on the block 411 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 6: knew that was the case with Crosby. So if everybody 412 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,959 Speaker 6: knows that, and everybody's still willing to give up the 413 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 6: capital that they're willing to give up, I really wonder 414 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 6: how much of a medical question mark there was. And 415 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 6: there has to be varying levels. There's varying levels of 416 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 6: tolerance around, like, Okay, one team is in a position 417 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 6: to where there's too many questions for us, We're just 418 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 6: not going to do it, versus forget the medicals, Like 419 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,199 Speaker 6: if he heals up and we can wait on that, 420 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:31,959 Speaker 6: we're good, right. 421 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 5: And I think I think, I think what you're saying 422 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,199 Speaker 5: is exactly what I'm saying, just in a different way. 423 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 5: I'm saying what I'm saying, now, hold on, hold on, 424 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 5: because at the end of the day, that would mean 425 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 5: if we follow that logic, that would mean something else 426 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 5: changed that's not public that made these teams say. 427 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 2: Nah, I'm not willing to do that. 428 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 5: I don't know because because they all knew yet they 429 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 5: all knew he had the surgery, right, they all knew 430 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 5: he had the surgery. That's not new information. So you're right, 431 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,719 Speaker 5: at that point, everybody was, all these teams were in. 432 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 5: Now all of a sudden, everybody's back. Everybody's like, no, 433 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 5: I'm good. 434 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 6: My personal opinion, I don't think the backtracking was for 435 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 6: a medical reason. 436 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 3: That's just my brere. 437 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 6: But here's based on reporting that that we've seen basically, 438 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 6: and that's my point. 439 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 2: That's my point. 440 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 5: There's something else involved here, and that's that's where I 441 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 5: land on this too, is there's more to the to 442 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 5: this story than just what's being reported, because I think 443 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 5: there was more interest as of Monday than it appears 444 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 5: to be today. 445 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 6: But I think that also could be because naturally around 446 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 6: the league. Now sure the Raider, the Raiders can report 447 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 6: and say, hey, we're still going to want two first 448 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 6: round picks for our player. 449 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 8: Nobody's going to give him that any market. 450 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 6: Nobody's gonna give him that any regardless of what happened 451 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 6: behind the scenes, nobody's going to give him that anymore. 452 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 6: So they've got to live with the reality of Okay, 453 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 6: we either need to keep this guy for twenty twenty 454 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 6: six and maybe try to look and make a move next. 455 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 2: Year, or I think that's actually their best route of 456 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 2: So that's what I would think too, is especially want 457 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 2: to bet on him. Bet on him. 458 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 6: He's healthy, you can still afford to add all the 459 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 6: players had in facy, you had the caps face. 460 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 8: Why not give the time, why not give it a shot. 461 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 6: But if that's not the case or the interesting thing 462 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 6: with all about this too is Crosby goes out and 463 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 6: records a thirteen minute video that he publishes and you know, 464 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 6: saying goodbye and everything. Is he willing to and is 465 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 6: that locker room willing to be like, welcome back, big Dog. 466 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 8: I mean, because yeah, they very well could. 467 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 6: But that's that's the interesting part of all this to 468 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 6: me is eventually the Raiders are going to have to 469 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 6: live with the fact that if they want to move 470 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 6: on from him, based on all the reporting that's happened, 471 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 6: it's going to need to be at a lower price. 472 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 6: And then I wouldn't expect any teams to be like, oh, yeah, 473 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 6: we're we're conversing with the Raiders on this. Why would 474 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 6: you say that right now? You let that price drop 475 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 6: as much as it can so that you can go 476 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 6: and get this caliber player. Look, this is a guy 477 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 6: who has had surgeries before, and he has had medical 478 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 6: procedures done, and he's continued to play at a high level, 479 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 6: and he's the He's the kind of guy where based 480 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 6: on all the reporting that we've seen is if anything, 481 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 6: he's just going to come out of this more motivated 482 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 6: and work harder to you know, prove people, especially in 483 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 6: a certain Northeast province of the country wrong. 484 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder they play them.

They give up a fourth round pick in 566 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 5: twenty twenty seven, kind of give me the scattering report. 567 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 5: What is what is there that fans can expect of 568 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 5: this player based upon what you've seen throughout his career. 569 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 6: He's been consistent at least five sacks in every season 570 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,880 Speaker 6: since his second year in the NFL, So he's been 571 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 6: consistent in pass rush. He's coming from a three to 572 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 6: fourth game that Jeff Hafley ran in Green Bay, so 573 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 6: one of the better run defending edges. He's one of 574 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 6: those bigger, stockier guys that can set the edge for you. 575 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 6: And I don't know if he has the same burst 576 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 6: that he did when he was younger, but I've seen 577 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 6: good pursuit from him and good effort to bring the 578 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 6: quarterback down. 579 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 8: There have been questions. 580 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 6: About, you know, whether there are some years where he 581 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 6: starts hot and then towards the end of the year 582 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 6: isn't as effective. But I mean, he's going to help 583 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 6: you in the run game at the very least, and 584 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,159 Speaker 6: you know, you just hope that he can be a. 585 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 8: Plus pass rusher for you. 586 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 6: It very much could end up being like a Jadavian 587 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 6: Clowney type of situation where he's going to set the 588 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 6: edge very well, He's going to get the quarterback down 589 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 6: a couple of times throughout the year. So it's a 590 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 6: solid player that elevates your defense because well, I mean, 591 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 6: you just straight up didn't have any pass rushers on 592 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 6: this roster. Donovan Azeraku was your best one going into 593 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 6: the season and right and I would say at this 594 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 6: point in time, he gears mesuff and as a rocker 595 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 6: could very well end up being better, and he could 596 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 6: be better this year. I just need to see the 597 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 6: next step from Aserako as a pass rusher, which hope 598 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,439 Speaker 6: you would hope if you're the Cowboys, this scheme allows 599 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 6: him to do. But I think right now you're looking 600 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 6: at those two being your starters as things currently stand. 601 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 3: Yep. I agree. He's a bit of a power rusher, 602 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 3: very active with his hands. He doesn't get a bunch 603 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 3: of sacks. And I'm saying a bunch of sacks. He 604 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:27,439 Speaker 3: got seven and a half and he could have got 605 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 3: two more. I just went down all his film. He 606 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 3: could have got two more. So if he ends up 607 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 3: with nine and a half sacks or ten sacks, then 608 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 3: we're looking at him as a double digit sad guy. 609 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 3: He'll just miss some miss the tackle here there. That's 610 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 3: something that you can you know, you can you know fix? 611 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 3: But forty seven pressures is what really jumped out to me, 612 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 3: and I think a lot of that came from, you know, 613 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 3: him winning early or him being kind of bursty. It's 614 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 3: weird because sometimes he'll come off the ball a little 615 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 3: slow and hand fight his way into his thing. Other 616 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 3: times he's bursting off the edge. But he's two seventy seven, 617 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 3: so he's not always going to be super bursty guy. 618 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 3: I do think he's the best rusher that you have 619 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 3: on your team right now. But Donovan a young guy. 620 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 3: Donovan's year two, you know, leap could put him over Gere. 621 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 3: But just as of what we know right now, Gary's better, 622 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 3: and I think it's a it's a good get. I 623 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 3: think what happened with Cowboy fans is when you lose 624 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 3: Micah and there's so much conversation around Trey and Max, 625 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 3: you go, all right, I gotta get somebody from that category. 626 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 3: Gary's not in that category. But if you get another 627 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 3: rusher that's similar to Gary, you drafted guy, maybe you 628 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,439 Speaker 3: revisit one of the other past rushers. I think you 629 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 3: have a pretty good pass rush group, so good sign. 630 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:36,399 Speaker 7: I'm trying to figure out exactly where I stand on 631 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 7: this because initially, prior to all of these deals being made, 632 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 7: I mean, they'll be official this afternoon, But prior to 633 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 7: all this, I was expecting or thought that the Cowboys 634 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 7: would be acquiring someone that that's your guy, Like you 635 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 7: feel confident about this is who's gonna be rushing the 636 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 7: quarterback and he's the man. Now you just have to 637 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 7: add a little bit of depth behind that. And I 638 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 7: don't think with him, he's not that guy. He's still like, 639 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 7: you're still even you just mentioned Bog, You're still gonna 640 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 7: have to bring in some other people in here too 641 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 7: to kind of build that group. But obviously someone that 642 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 7: And this is where I also find it hard to 643 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 7: evaluate when you talk about Christian Parker and what his 644 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 7: building right now, I'm trusting his analysis on this whole 645 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 7: thing and being like, and I'm sure we'll go down 646 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 7: the list of guys that are coming to the Cowboys. 647 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 7: But with PJ. Locke, he's another guy, Derek, your initial 648 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 7: reaction with him was interesting. 649 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, here's my deal. 650 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 3: PJ. 651 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 5: Lock when he was at Texas, he was kind of 652 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 5: just a guy. I never recalled him being a standout player. Sure, 653 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 5: now that doesn't mean he hasn't developed into that, and 654 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 5: I can't say that I've watched the ton of him 655 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 5: with the Broncos. I do know he played a lot 656 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 5: for them last year and that was one of the 657 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 5: better defenses in the NFL, if not the best. So 658 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 5: that being said, look, hey give it a shot. What 659 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 5: I'm relying on right now kind of what you were saying, 660 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 5: I'm kind of relying on CP. I'm relying on the 661 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 5: fact that so much has been said about how much 662 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 5: he understands the game and how good he is at 663 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 5: putting players in the right positions to be able to 664 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 5: make plays that I'm looking at it and saying, there 665 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 5: is something they see in him that can play a 666 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 5: specific role. And if you have a defensive player, and 667 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 5: if you have a defensive unit that's made up of 668 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 5: not great players, not the best player at every position 669 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 5: in the league, but players who have a role and 670 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 5: a certain skill set that can do this one thing 671 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 5: really really well, and this other one can do this 672 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:49,959 Speaker 5: one thing really really well, and then you put them 673 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 5: all together, and you put them all in their roles, 674 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 5: your defense can be really good. 675 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 2: Sure, if that's the case. 676 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 5: Then I'm trusting the evaluation, But I just didn't recall 677 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 5: him at Texas As being and I watch every Texas guy, 678 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 5: watch every Texas game from the time I was in 679 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 5: school there back in the nineties, I watched Texas football, 680 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 5: and I don't remember him being one of the better 681 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 5: players on the Texas uniton Well, I trust. 682 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 7: Your opinion on this because you watch every single game, 683 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 7: so you keep a very close eye with these guys. 684 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 7: But just looking overall at the list of the defensive players, 685 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 7: my initial thought, Okay, none of these guys are like, 686 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 7: oh my god, groundbreaking. I feel super super excited. But 687 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 7: I find myself going back to the feeling that I 688 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 7: had last offseason, last free agency, where with Matt Iberflus, 689 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 7: I'm like, well, let's see what this guy is gonna do, 690 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 7: given the benefit of the dow Again, not a fair 691 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 7: comparison to completely different guys, different stages of their careers, 692 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 7: and I am excited with what Christian Parker brings to 693 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,959 Speaker 7: the table. But I find myself having those similar feelings 694 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 7: is that none of these guys are may gi exciting 695 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 7: for me right now, but I'm like, well, I'm trusting 696 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 7: what Parker sees and what he brings and the fact 697 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 7: that They're going for so many defensive players in free agency. 698 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 7: I'm excited about that, but again, I don't really know 699 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 7: how to feel about. 700 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 2: It just yet. 701 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, I will say this real quick before we move 702 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 5: on on lock. One of the things I will tell 703 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 5: you is I love the fact of what I've seen 704 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,959 Speaker 5: from him as a as a back end player, his 705 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 5: ability to kind of move around in the back end 706 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 5: and make plays. I like that, and so I just 707 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 5: believe they're going to be Like I think there are skills, 708 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 5: things about his skill set that's going to make him 709 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 5: valuable to this team. He's worked with this this with 710 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 5: some of the folks on this staff, and I think 711 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 5: that's why they look at him and they're like, we 712 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 5: want a guy like that, and it really is to me, 713 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 5: it's the same way I'm looking at all of these moves. 714 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 5: I'm thinking from the lens of right now. I think 715 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 5: I always believe you give a person the benefit of 716 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 5: the doubt until they get your reason not to, and 717 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 5: so for Christian Parker and this staff, I am giving 718 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 5: them the benefit of the doubt that the kinds of 719 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 5: players that they are trying to attract and pull in 720 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 5: here are players that will fit what they're trying to do, 721 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 5: and then I want to see the totality because I 722 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 5: was one of the main people that said when they 723 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 5: got rid of Michael Parsons, I like the move mainly 724 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 5: because I'd rather have a defense of a lot of 725 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 5: players who all play their role really well then necessarily 726 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 5: having one or two great players and you're spending all 727 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 5: your resources on that, I think you'll have a better 728 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 5: unit overall. So if I'm going to do that, then 729 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 5: I have to like that. There are some of these 730 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 5: moves that will be about role players that will play 731 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 5: a specific role and that's it, and that's what they'll 732 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 5: do really well for this unit. 733 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 3: I think PJ. 734 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,719 Speaker 6: A Lock fits into that category. I think he's going 735 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 6: to be depth for you at safety, and he's a 736 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 6: really good special teams player special teams thirteen hundred special 737 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 6: team snaps in his career so far, and he's with 738 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 6: Christian Parker for three years in Denver. He didn't really 739 00:33:54,800 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 6: see the field very much until Christian Parker around, so 740 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 6: or he didn't contribute as much until Christian Parker started 741 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 6: getting there. So yeah, that might just be a familiarity 742 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 6: one and he had to very lethal give you death 743 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 6: to the safety position, a guy you can help out 744 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 6: on special teams. 745 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 2: Do you think that means that CJ. Goodwin won't be back. 746 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 8: Not necessarily need a lot of good special teamers. 747 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, but usually teams will. And the fact 748 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 5: that they're paying him. I think the report's five million 749 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 5: for lock. That's a significant amount of money if it's 750 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 5: just for a special teamers. So he's going to play 751 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 5: some defense, I would suspect, but he could be a 752 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 5: special team's ace, which teams usually have one of those 753 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 5: guys that they kind of pay a little bit more 754 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 5: because that's their guy. 755 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 2: He's going to be on every unit. 756 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 5: He's going to be the guy that they're going to 757 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 5: be expecting to make plays on special teams. And maybe 758 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 5: he's that kind of player for them. 759 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 8: It could be, but this team loves c J. 760 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:46,280 Speaker 4: Goodwin. 761 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 6: He's been a captain for them for forever, so I 762 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,439 Speaker 6: wouldn't be shocked if they still brought him back as well. 763 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 3: Cool yeah, dev guy, you know, And that's something else 764 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 3: that we just all need to be ready for. I 765 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 3: know it is exciting right now, and we all tampered 766 00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 3: with the Cowboys have to feel the whole roster out, 767 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 3: not just the first right guys. So when they signed Sam, 768 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like that don't mean Sam's 769 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,439 Speaker 3: gonna be one of your starting you know, saying, hey, 770 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 3: just in case something may happy, you may be a 771 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 3: fallback plan, you may be competing. Well, no, I'm going 772 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 3: to earn it. We're just acquiring names. What's my man? 773 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 3: The tackle we just signed because I know I don't know. 774 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 2: Oh, you're talking about Tito a Banya. 775 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,839 Speaker 3: I'm glad you got to rid. The whole roster has 776 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 3: to be filled out, you know what I mean. So 777 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna overreact. We're trying to start PJ lot No. 778 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,760 Speaker 3: In real life, they're probably gonna draft a guy and 779 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 3: the drafted guy is gonna work with Thompson and Hooker 780 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 3: still here. They just redid his money a little bit, 781 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,839 Speaker 3: so he'll he'll be around. Those will be your three 782 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 3: safety So I don't think the Cowboys are settling at this, 783 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 3: you know, at that safety spot. 784 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 5: All right, let's take our final break, let's come back. 785 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,240 Speaker 5: I want to talk about Jalen Thompson, who is probably, 786 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,360 Speaker 5: in my opinion, the most exciting player of the problem 787 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 5: the Cowboys have have signed during this period. Or at 788 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:50,839 Speaker 5: least agreed to terms too during this period. We'll talk 789 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:52,320 Speaker 5: about that when we come back.

We're talking 851 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 5: about free agency, the actual free agency. I know it 852 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 5: feels to fans like free agency has been happening for 853 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 5: a few days, but actual free agency begins this afternoon 854 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 5: at three pm Central Time. That is when teams are 855 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 5: able to actually officially sign the players that they have 856 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:57,760 Speaker 5: come to terms with. And one of those players, safety Jayalen, 857 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,479 Speaker 5: Thompson coming from Arizona. He gets a reportedly a three years, 858 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 5: thirty three million dollars deal. I guess talk to me 859 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 5: about him and what he brings, because I was actually 860 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 5: excited about this. When I started watching some film on 861 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 5: this player, I was actually got really excited because of 862 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 5: the range of things he could do. I saw him 863 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 5: like man, he closes gaps really quickly, he runs up 864 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 5: and runs support, it can lay up like. He just 865 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 5: does so many different things and he does them seemingly 866 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 5: pretty well. And now again, when you're looking at the 867 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 5: highlights of a player, kind of get the highlights of 868 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:30,720 Speaker 5: a player. 869 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 2: I don't know what it is he doesn't do so well, 870 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 2: but just. 871 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 5: Looking at it and then reading what others say about him, 872 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 5: it seems like he is a very, very sturdy and 873 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 5: versatile player. 874 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 2: What do you guys think you got it? 875 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,920 Speaker 3: Derek? I mean, when Christian Parker came out and said, hey, 876 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 3: I need my nickel to be all these things. He 877 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 3: gave you a long list, and then they got to 878 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 3: go out there and play and be good at those things. 879 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 3: What I like about this the most is that the 880 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,919 Speaker 3: Cowboys aren't taking that long list of things and dry 881 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,800 Speaker 3: put it on some rookie, you know what I'm saying, 882 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 3: And you know, whatever rookie that that may be, they 883 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 3: could possibly handle it that long list of things. Give 884 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,839 Speaker 3: me a veteran that's on film doing those things right now. 885 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 3: So then that when you draft your safety, whoever that 886 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 3: may be, you bring that guy along slowly and be like, hey, 887 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 3: follow him around and do exactly what he's doing. But 888 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 3: we're talking about a guy that can play in the 889 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 3: nickel play zone or man in the nickel versus big 890 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 3: wide receivers, smaller wide receivers, he. 891 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 2: Could play on them, and with the quicker wide receivers he. 892 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,359 Speaker 3: Can do it with quicker wide receivers. Now, match up 893 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 3: depending you don't want you don't want to. 894 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 5: Like, if you match up against a CD, would you 895 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 5: would you match him up on a CD in the slot? 896 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 3: CD and JSN are like top five guys. 897 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:40,879 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, You wouldn't do that. 898 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,719 Speaker 3: But if we're playing against little little Jordan Humphrey or something, 899 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 3: Hey go get a little Jordan Humpy. 900 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 2: What little Jordan that. 901 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 3: Is he still in that he played for somebody? Yeah, 902 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 3: you know, so that'll be. That'll be. But from a 903 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 3: long one. But when he's not in the nickel, he 904 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 3: can go play free, and when he's at free, he's 905 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 3: got range at free, or he can play as strong 906 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,279 Speaker 3: and he's really good in the run at strong. So 907 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 3: he's versatile, go everywhere and do everything. So if you're 908 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 3: asking Cowboy fans, does this stop us from drafting a 909 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 3: safety now? Because if Thompson is in the nickel, then 910 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 3: you're a new dude. Will be on the roof. Shout 911 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,280 Speaker 3: out the flissy k for on the roof. If Thompson 912 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 3: is on the roof, then you're a young dude to 913 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 3: be at the nickel. You can move him around anywhere 914 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 3: you want to move him. And you really need a 915 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 3: creative coach to use that guy max, you know, you 916 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 3: know to his max, And I think that's what CP 917 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 3: wants to do. So shout out to shouts out to 918 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 3: that pick. Please. 919 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,399 Speaker 6: I think this is a plus player for you because 920 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 6: if you look at the safety play of last year, 921 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 6: Oh boy, I mean this is a guy who busted 922 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:39,879 Speaker 6: it on the head. It's it's going to be able 923 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 6: to You're going to be able to move him around 924 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 6: and can do a lot of different things for you. 925 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 6: I saw one clip of Thompson lining up the line 926 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 6: of scrimmage like he was going to blitz and then 927 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 6: he dropped back like forty yards and broke up a pass. 928 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 8: That's the incredible range. 929 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 6: And so you're you're gonna get a guy who can 930 00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 6: you can cover all the parts of the field. He 931 00:41:58,040 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 6: can step up and fill in the run game when 932 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 6: he needs you. The one thing I saw is that 933 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 6: on some of the inbreaking routes and comeback routes, he 934 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 6: was a little bit slow to trigger and come back 935 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,240 Speaker 6: and make the play. But he can close in a hurry, 936 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 6: and so I think that speed can somewhat make up 937 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 6: for it. He's going to help you a lot at 938 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 6: the safety position based on what you've had there in 939 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 6: the past. And he's got familiar on the staff. He's 940 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 6: with Ryan Smith in Arizona. He was the, if I'm 941 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 6: not mistaken, the corners coach with the Cardinals, but now 942 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,400 Speaker 6: he's the secondary coach here with the Cowboys. And he 943 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 6: said at the comic he's told that the comedy is 944 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:28,879 Speaker 6: gonna be working more with. 945 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 8: The safety room. 946 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,399 Speaker 6: So he's back with the coach he's familiar with. He's 947 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 6: put some good things on tape. Like Vach said, he's 948 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 6: rangy can fill a lot of different roles for you 949 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 6: based on you know, whatever Christian Parker's vision is for him, 950 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 6: and it's going to be an upgrade from what you 951 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 6: had there last year. Although that bar is pretty low. 952 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 7: From my end, I don't have much to add to that. 953 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 7: I am excited because physically he's he has the physical 954 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 7: aspect that I want at that position. So I like 955 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 7: how he looks physical. And another thing, I think he's 956 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,320 Speaker 7: in his career, like right now, he's at his prime. 957 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:10,399 Speaker 7: This is the time where you either peak or kind 958 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,799 Speaker 7: of start trending downwards. So I think he's gonna take 959 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 7: advantage of this opportunity and he will be I believe 960 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 7: right now, based on what I've seen so far, I 961 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 7: think he's going to be an impactful player in the secondary. 962 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 5: Yep, all right, real quick, before we end the show, 963 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:26,600 Speaker 5: I did want to talk about one other player. Sam 964 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 5: Howell last night signed to a one year deal just 965 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 5: from the standpoint of the position, because you know, usually 966 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 5: we know he's coming in here will be a backup obviously, 967 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 5: or maybe even our third string player. How significant is 968 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 5: this just from the standpoint of your quarterback death and 969 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,720 Speaker 5: thinking about it from the standpoint of if you should 970 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,280 Speaker 5: have to play without Dak Prescott for a few games, 971 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 5: what does he provide for you maybe that maybe you 972 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:51,800 Speaker 5: don't already have on your roster. 973 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 3: Sam has played a bunch of games in the league, 974 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 3: you know, veteran guy. Whatever. He played with Washington. I 975 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 3: think he No, he didn't beat this that one time. 976 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 3: But yeah, Sam. 977 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 2: Philly last year, right did. 978 00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,359 Speaker 8: Yeah, his first career star was against Dallas and they won. 979 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 3: Okay, well whatever, But he's been a little bit quality guy. 980 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 3: If anything were to happen, I'm just trying to go 981 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,479 Speaker 3: draft anyway you feel me. But what I will say 982 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 3: is we've seen Green Bay take a backup quarterback and 983 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 3: play a little bit and look fine in two games, 984 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 3: and that dude go out and get some get some 985 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 3: money somewhere, you know what I mean. So if Sam 986 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 3: Howell want to come in and look good for a 987 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:29,719 Speaker 3: little bit and get us a draft pick in a 988 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 3: year or something, or get us a compick because he 989 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 3: went to go make some money somewhere else, I think 990 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,839 Speaker 3: that's ultimately what it's all about. But just in case 991 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,839 Speaker 3: Joe Milton doesn't reach the backup quarterback returns. I guess 992 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 3: that's another way you can look at it too. 993 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 5: I'm gonna call BS on that, I'm just gonna go 994 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 5: draft if I lose Dak Prescott for a few games, 995 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 5: because if the Cowboys seven and zer, let's say, and 996 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 5: then he goes down for three weeks, you ain't going 997 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,240 Speaker 5: to draft you, Like, I need somebody that can steady 998 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 5: this thing and keep me in contention. 999 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 3: So I ain't say that, you know, miss a few 1000 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 3: games if he misses a few games, And yeah, sure, 1001 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 3: I said that. What I'm talking sometimes I don't even 1002 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 3: want to talk about the other situations like no, no, no. 1003 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:04,839 Speaker 5: And I would I didn't even bring that up if 1004 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 5: I was talking board from the standpoint of if you 1005 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 5: get into the season, it was Cooper Rush years ago, right, 1006 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:11,200 Speaker 5: they were, they're having a really good season. 1007 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:12,840 Speaker 2: They lose Dak for what four weeks? 1008 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:13,839 Speaker 8: I want to say four or five? 1009 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, something like that, and you just want somebody that's 1010 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 5: gonna steady this ship. You can't go on a four 1011 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:19,800 Speaker 5: game losing streak. You need somebody that's gonna get you 1012 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:21,359 Speaker 5: at least two of those games, let's say, or three 1013 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 5: of those games if you can, right, so I think 1014 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 5: that's the point is maybe this experience at quarterback can 1015 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:29,640 Speaker 5: help you steady if you need it for just a 1016 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 5: short period of time. 1017 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 3: Also, too, I think if you want to try to 1018 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 3: win a game, I don't think Milton's ready ready to 1019 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 3: do that right now. I think they still want to 1020 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 3: develop his skill set because he's so physically gifted. I 1021 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 3: think if they had to go win a game, they probably, 1022 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 3: well Voch probably trust Will Will Grier more than Joe 1023 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 3: Milton to go win a game. So that might have 1024 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 3: something to do with white House here. 1025 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 6: I think this is strictly competition in the room, and 1026 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,320 Speaker 6: this is going to be a competition in training camp 1027 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:59,680 Speaker 6: with How Joe Milton, Will Greer. For all right, well 1028 00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 6: who are you three quarterbacks going to be this year? 1029 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 6: As for who I'd rather have in a game? Is 1030 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,399 Speaker 6: nobody neither of them an answer? Because al is How's five. 1031 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 6: This is just facts. I'm not trying to dog on anybody. 1032 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 6: He's five and thirteen. In his career as a starter, 1033 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 6: he has twenty three interceptions to twenty two career touchdown passes. 1034 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,799 Speaker 6: So it's kind of been a roller coaster and he 1035 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 6: has had some moments He's had some moments where he 1036 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 6: looks fantastic, but it's just been inconsistent. 1037 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 8: So I don't know. I like Joe Milton's skill set 1038 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 8: a lot. 1039 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 6: I think there's a lot to work with there, and 1040 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,759 Speaker 6: I think it's on him to show that he has 1041 00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 6: taken a step in his development. And I think that 1042 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 6: this move is to say, look, we need to see 1043 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 6: that growth from me, because you think about the move 1044 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,239 Speaker 6: that Dallas made for Trey Lance a few years ago, 1045 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 6: where it was all right, we need to see growth 1046 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:49,359 Speaker 6: here so that we can can trust you and give 1047 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,919 Speaker 6: you a better role on this team, and it didn't 1048 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 6: end up working out that way. So I think this 1049 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 6: is a similar deal where the Cowboys are saying, hey, 1050 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,440 Speaker 6: we need we want to see growth from Joe Milton 1051 00:46:58,760 --> 00:46:59,759 Speaker 6: because he has all the. 1052 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 8: Tool in the world physically. The arm talent is ridiculous. 1053 00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:06,480 Speaker 6: But you know, ultimately it's going to be who can 1054 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 6: we rely on if everything hits the fan and we 1055 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,759 Speaker 6: need somebody to win. It's a game again knock on 1056 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 6: wood in a situation where that doesn't happen. 1057 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, you definitely. 1058 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:16,680 Speaker 7: I mean I was just gonna say, you definitely need 1059 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 7: a competition in that room behind Dak. I mean, we 1060 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 7: saw Milton in a few games last year and we 1061 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 7: know how that went down. I mean, there were a 1062 00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 7: lot of there's still a lot of room for improvement 1063 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 7: and development for him. So we'll see what this guy's 1064 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 7: bringing in there. And as far as me, I've been 1065 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 7: a Wheelgreer fan based on that last game we played 1066 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 7: with daking his ear giving him you know, the coaching 1067 00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:47,439 Speaker 7: in the plays, but uh yeah, just competition there, what happens. 1068 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,760 Speaker 8: And something else to you. You mentioned draft picks. 1069 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 6: Up until this year when he was a free agent, 1070 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 6: the team has gotten a pick for him every year, 1071 00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,359 Speaker 6: so if it does end up being a trade deal, 1072 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:00,879 Speaker 6: there could be a way that Dallas gets a pick 1073 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 6: from this. 1074 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,800 Speaker 5: All right, that's a wrap. We will be back next week. 1075 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:05,800 Speaker 5: I'm sure there will be more moves that will happen. 1076 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 5: I'm sure I hope they'll be more. 1077 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 2: Well, we don't know that yet. 1078 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 5: I don't know that's finalized yet, but we'll keep working 1079 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 5: on that. That is something that's out there as a possibility. 1080 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 5: There will be other players. I'm guessing that we'll be 1081 00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 5: signed between now next week, so we'll talk more about 1082 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 5: what's happening around free agency, and we'll start also looking 1083 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:25,320 Speaker 5: forward to Okay, now that you've gotten into the depths 1084 00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,400 Speaker 5: of free agency, you're starting to get a picture of 1085 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 5: what your team's going to look like heading into the draft, 1086 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 5: what needs to happen a draft, and maybe start getting 1087 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 5: into some of the names that you guys talk about 1088 00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 5: on the Draft show that the Cowboys fans need to 1089 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 5: be aware of. 1090 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:38,840 Speaker 6: At twelve and twenty, tell them we should trade up 1091 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 6: to six for Sunny Styles. 1092 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 5: Hey man, I said that was that you I was 1093 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 5: talking to about that?

Let me be clear. 1104 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:20,080 Speaker 5: A lot of teams, a lot of teams evaluate things 1105 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:23,439 Speaker 5: very differently. And I will say I've seen teams do things. 1106 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 5: I've been like, what so it doesn't it wouldn't shock 1107 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,440 Speaker 5: me if they I don't know what's going on in 1108 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:29,239 Speaker 5: their building. 1109 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 2: What they're talking about.

I'm drafted because that's what drafting. 1146 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 3: Drafting is for, to find the best dudes you possibly can. 1147 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 3: Let's just let's just let the Cowboys come up and 1148 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:55,640 Speaker 3: get the best guys. 1149 00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:57,920 Speaker 5: By the way, this happens every year. You act like 1150 00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:00,880 Speaker 5: it doesn't happen every year.
