But I'm excited 0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.120 to be with you all this morning as we dig 0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:16.560 and dive into Many camping started, Mini Camp started, and Nate, 0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:21.160 you have make you have a feeling about Mini Camp 0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:24.760 and OTAs and all of this offseason stuff. So I'm 0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:26.640 gonna let you have the floor, Nate, and you tell 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:28.560 us how you feel about. 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:35.520 It about Many Camp, about ot Ash. I have jes 0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:37.480 you just set me out because I don't. I don't 0:02:37.520 --> 0:02:38.840 have no feelings about it. 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:39.120 Man. 0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:39.880 Uh. 0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:43.760 It is not a physical That's what I wanted to hear. 0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:49.079 It is not a physical thing. It's all mental and are. 0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:51.600 They do you think they're still able to get the 0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:53.640 work in and the development they need. 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:55.600 As far as the mental aspect. 0:02:55.680 --> 0:03:02.960 This this is what's uh disappointing, is they're putting in. 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:05.600 They can put stuff in much faster than when men 0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:08.760 and Jessey did it because we had to go out 0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:12.440 there and physically run fast, hit do so we not 0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:13.480 only dealing with the mental. 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:14.720 We was dealing with the physical. 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:17.959 Well, now you just straight they can just get day 0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:19.920 in and day I'll put ten new things in because 0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:23.040 it ain't like you going on the field and get 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:26.080 a lot of work physically to exhaust you. So you 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:31.120 can't gather this stuff mentally. Uh what you don't want 0:03:31.160 --> 0:03:34.120 to see and you put it in your notes. We 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:37.160 don't want to see Jalen Tobert not No, we don't 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:40.560 need another high round draft pick, not know how to 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:45.560 line up next year? What was mini camp OTAs and 0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:49.440 all this personal stuff that we've done, it didn't amount 0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:53.320 to nothing. So that's my big issue is. 0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:56.840 It does it hurt them that even though yes, it's 0:03:56.880 --> 0:04:00.280 all mental, they can't quite learn it until they got 0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:01.440 the pads on and are really. 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:07.440 No, it's more like college in college, and Jesse attest 0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:07.680 to this. 0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:12.400 In college, we are you didn't go on no pads. 0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:14.680 Early when you know, when you got out of when 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:16.880 you got out of spring training, which spring training, we 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:19.800 was in paths. Back when we played, we were in 0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:23.000 paths every day. But even now these kids are not 0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:24.799 in paths, but they're running. 0:04:26.080 --> 0:04:28.520 If you can run fast to. 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:31.320 A certain extent, because it's all about can you get 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:33.360 yourself up to the level of the game. How far 0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:35.919 away is you from the level of the game. So 0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:38.520 a lot of college coaches still have their kids out 0:04:38.560 --> 0:04:41.800 there running fast, moving fast, hustling, you know, trying to 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.599 get some exhaustion in that way. But it's all about 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:49.159 the mental thing. And and if these guys go out here, 0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:55.400 line up, get some speed in along with this mental 0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:57.240 they should be all right because the. 0:04:57.279 --> 0:04:59.920 League is the same across the board. 0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:04.400 The coaches don't call the shots, and the gms don't 0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:05.479 call the shots anymore. 0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:07.120 The league called the shots. 0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:11.720 The one thing I would push back on, Nate when 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:16.440 it comes to on the field stuff, like you alluded to, 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:19.440 in college, you do have that period of spring ball 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:23.240 where it's live action, where it's legit pads on you know, 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:25.400 maybe not tackling to the ground unless you're in the 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:27.520 spring game. But there is some thudding and some hitting. 0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:32.120 And the biggest part about the learning curve is what 0:05:32.400 --> 0:05:35.200 happens when the live bullets are flying and you know, 0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:38.080 speaking of Jala Toober and we're not beating a dead horse. 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:41.560 But I can't help but to go back to that 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:43.520 play when he was in the season where Jala Toler 0:05:43.600 --> 0:05:46.320 got inserted in the game and he lines up and 0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:49.800 he's looking in at the football, but he's lined up 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:54.000 off sides and he's just standing there a foot in 0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:57.320 front of the football and looking into the football at 0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:00.440 the football, And that to me is different when when 0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:03.160 you do everything it's all a walkthrough, which a lot 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:05.359 of these practices are, or it's a you know, a 0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:09.160 jog through. There's something about when the when the live 0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:13.320 bullets start flowing, where does your mind go? Because everybody 0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:17.000 doesn't have the temperament or the mindset of when things 0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:21.120 get chaotic that I get calm. You know, if you 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:23.800 if you're ever around like Navy seals, you get to 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:26.960 try to speak to Navy seals or people like that. 0:06:27.320 --> 0:06:29.880 They'll tell you that in the in the most chaotic 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:32.200 moment is when they become their comments, is when they 0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:35.120 know that they they can't get erratic like the situation. 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:38.479 They can't let the situation elevate them to a point 0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:41.400 where they're not able to think correctly. And I think 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:43.920 that's the part that's missing when you when you take 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:46.200 the pads away, and I get it, this is self inflicted. 0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:48.919 The players wanted this. This wasn't an ownership thing, This 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:52.440 wasn't a league thing. This was a players want to 0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:54.719 take the pads off, to have less hitting, to have 0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:58.640 all those things. But what return. What happens is, especially 0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:01.320 for those young guys coming in now, when you have 0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:03.360 to add into that point of all right, the live 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:07.600 bullets are flying and Tony's point, when that fatigue kicks in. 0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:09.880 I don't know what coach or what person said that 0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:12.160 it says, but fatigue will make cowards of us. All. 0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:16.280 It's what happens when you get a little bit tired, Lombard, 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:17.880 You get a little bit tired, you get a little 0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:19.560 bit exhausted, you get a little bit of kind of 0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:23.160 just the situation gets a little bit elevated. Now, what 0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:26.160 does your mental do, Because if you haven't trained for that, 0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:29.760 if you haven't prepared yourself for that, especially a young guy. 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:32.000 You get in these situations and all of a sudden, 0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:34.920 your brain goes haywire and you don't have the ability 0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:38.480 to properly lock in and focus and have the game 0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:41.680 slowed down for you. Instead it speeds up, and now 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.360 you're erratic. It's erratic, and now things are all over 0:07:44.400 --> 0:07:47.840 the place. And as you know, especially offensively and defensively 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:50.640 as well, is when you have a certain guy that's 0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:53.360 not on the same page with a quarterback or you know, 0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:57.120 alignment aren't all going in the same direction. Now guys 0:07:57.120 --> 0:07:59.480 are missing blocks, guys are missing assignments, and that can 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:02.600 be that can be devastating blow to your football team. 0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:06.320 Yeah, they now the difference here between OTA's and mini camps. 0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:08.960 Many camps are mandatory, so you expect everybody to be there. 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:11.520 They can do seven on seven drills, eleven on eleven drills. 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:14.480 I think the like receivers and corners can do one 0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:16.840 on ones, but there's no life contact, no hitting, no 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:18.920 pads other than helmets and that sort of thing. So 0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:21.760 not being able to do this like you were saying, 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:25.239 and get prepared with the physical aspect of it along 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:27.960 with the mental Does that hurt this hurt teams? I 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:31.440 guess every NFL team faces it. We've joked about the 0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:33.439 first four games of the regular season and actually the 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:34.800 preseason guy, guys. 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:35.960 They ain't no joke. 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:38.520 Does it hurt more then or does it hurt more 0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:41.080 later in the year because they run into that fatigue 0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:42.080 like you were talking about. 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:44.800 Just when you have not when you have not made 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:49.040 sure when you scouted these young guys, either first year 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:52.200 players or rookies, our second year player, you scouted these 0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:54.680 guys and not talk to the right people to find 0:08:54.679 --> 0:08:56.720 out that their mentals, like Jesse, be the hya your 0:08:56.760 --> 0:08:59.400 dentals and your mentals. When you find out these mentals 0:08:59.440 --> 0:09:03.680 are loose and not strong, that's when you run into 0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:09.120 this Jesse talking about a mental thing, you know, and 0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:09.520 that and. 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:12.800 That's where these guys, that's what hurts your team. 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:15.960 When you got a third round pick, you got a 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:19.160 first round pick who you depended on for sixty five 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.560 percent of your snaps, say hey, this guy gotta develop, 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:23.800 he's got to be something to help our team. And 0:09:23.840 --> 0:09:28.120 you can find out, wow, and that that's what it hurts. 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:28.360 Man. 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:30.920 But if you got to buy a bunch of smart 0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:35.079 guys that can make that adjustment and transfer that from 0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:38.720 the classroom to one hundred miles an hour in the game. 0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:42.200 It's much easier to get it going. I just think 0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:44.120 with this new offense ess and you can speak to 0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:48.120 this as a wide receiver about the West Coast uh normal, 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:50.320 you know, because I was just in a number system 0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:53.320 that you know, you where the numbers say go. But 0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:55.840 this West Coast thing is a little bit different. And 0:09:55.920 --> 0:09:57.560 the paragraphs can get pretty long. 0:09:58.080 --> 0:09:58.280 You know. 0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:00.320 You can quarterback and going in the you can have 0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:02.760 a long paragraph. You got a lot of things to do. 0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:04.640 I'm I correct, Yes, I'm gonna send it wrong. 0:10:06.520 --> 0:10:09.120 No, you're absolutely right that those paragraph does get a 0:10:09.160 --> 0:10:11.520 little bit long. The Verberts does get a little bit lengthy. 0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:13.320 I think one other thing that they're going to try 0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:17.280 to do is is take some of the concepts and 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.560 keep them in the same language that Dak was used to, right, 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.079 because it's always like, you know, always be quarterback friendly, 0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:25.120 be Dak Freley. The biggest thing about this West Coast 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:30.200 offense is it's now getting your linemen to adjust to 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:33.000 the quickness of how where the ball is coming out, 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:35.880 the ball is being released and then now have your quarterback, 0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:38.480 receivers and running backs and tight ends all being on 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:41.920 the same page timy wise. That's the biggest thing about 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:46.199 the West Coast offense. It's timing everything now in all 0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:49.680 offenses are timed right in a sense, but this is 0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:52.439 more This is even more sped up, and there's more 0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:55.760 responsibility in the route running. What I mean by that 0:10:55.920 --> 0:11:01.000 is you have one situation where a receiver will see 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:03.040 an adjustment from the line of scrimmage when the covers 0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:06.400 changes pre snap. One thing about the West Coast offense 0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:09.920 is they do a lot of it literally in route adjustments. 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:13.080 They do the you can snap. You can see one 0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:16.240 thing pre snap, the ball is snap, the defense now 0:11:16.480 --> 0:11:19.400 rotates to you know, middle of the field open, middle 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:22.160 of the field closed, and now mid route. You have 0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:24.640 to be able to see that adjustment and then make 0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:27.240 the right decision. Those are the things that when you 0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:30.400 look at mini camps and training camps, in those preseason 0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:33.040 games when you're implementing a new offense or new style 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:35.600 of offense, that you want to see those guys get 0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:38.280 connected with because what you don't want to have what 0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:39.960 we saw a couple of times last year in the 0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:44.320 old offense where receiver and quarterback work on the same page. Receiver, 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:46.840 quarterback and tight end work on the same page, and 0:11:46.880 --> 0:11:50.319 it led to untimely turnovers and that you know, turnovers 0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:54.040 in any game can kill you, but especially when you're 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:57.000 trying to get a new offense off the ground in 0:11:57.080 --> 0:11:59.199 a year. Might I add where there's going to be 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:02.120 a ton of press sure on Dak Prescott, there's going 0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:04.600 to be a ton of pressure on Mike McCarthy for 0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:07.160 this thing, for them to get this ball rolling early 0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:09.679 so that this team can look like a formidable opponent 0:12:09.840 --> 0:12:12.440 and a formidable Super Bowl contender by the end of 0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:12.760 the year. 0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:17.120 So what can because there's no contact now, I would 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:21.240 think trying to work on those timings and the speed 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:23.559 of the game with the linement is a lot lot tougher. 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:26.520 What can they do now to kind of build on that, 0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:28.520 start building that foundation speed. 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:34.120 One thing that the limited times I was around most 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:37.880 West Coast offenses is regardless of whether it was MENI 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:38.880 Camp or whatever. 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:40.079 And Jesse made was different for you. 0:12:40.720 --> 0:12:45.480 But these guys believe in running fast, running, running the 0:12:45.640 --> 0:12:50.200 routes wide open, quarterback throwing the ball. They that Thelignement 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.520 could be doing what they want to do. But the 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:57.320 receivers in the run of everybody, these coaches demanded, now, 0:12:57.440 --> 0:12:59.880 any want you diving at the ball. They WEREN'TNNA let 0:12:59.880 --> 0:13:03.600 no cornerback jam hit you deep down the field, but 0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:08.440 they wanted you running that thing wide open. And I 0:13:08.440 --> 0:13:11.160 don't know if they were if coach mccarthur wire asked 0:13:11.200 --> 0:13:12.760 for that, or to receive a coach. 0:13:13.000 --> 0:13:16.280 But if the quicker you, the closer you can. 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:19.960 Become to game speed, the easier it is when the 0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:23.160 game they start. And that's what Jesse's saying that if 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:25.280 you used to just jog trying out, that's to the 0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:29.319 end of the line. Hey go to defense, lilly gagging around? 0:13:29.920 --> 0:13:30.720 What are you learning? 0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:32.760 They are? 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:34.360 Yeah, I was supposed to be back there in the 0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:37.080 deep third, but I didn't get back there. Well, you 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:40.280 gave your your wide receiver a bad read. So now 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:42.960 when the season started, and we laugh about Nate Noon 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:45.679 saying the first four games a straight pre season, all 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:48.520 of a sudden, that's what we see. You know, we 0:13:48.520 --> 0:13:50.160 were fortunate, very fortunate. 0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:54.360 Last year. We were very fortunate. And yeah, and so I. 0:13:54.280 --> 0:13:57.400 Don't I don't think fortunate rides like that year and 0:13:57.440 --> 0:13:58.080 the year out. 0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:00.840 You know, can they make can they make ross your 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:02.160 decisions now in mini camp? 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:10.360 Yeah, people try to disagree with me. Well, this last 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:15.280 preseason game, we got four spots, O man to tell 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:17.120 that to an idiot. They know who they want on 0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:19.560 the scene. They know who they want on this team, 0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:23.080 and they will know when training camp. They may say, Okay, 0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:25.120 this training camp, we got to make a decision on 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:30.520 these four guys because with the lack of running wide open, 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:34.280 the lack of getting after it doing training camp, how 0:14:34.320 --> 0:14:37.000 you gonna tell me you I ain't never hit a 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:39.320 licking a snake. I'm a fourth round pick. I ain't 0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:41.200 never hit nobody. 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.080 You know, how you know that I can play in 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:44.440 the game? 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:47.720 The preseasons don't mean that much. How you know can 0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:51.080 I play? Ain't nobody ran no different schemes. I just 0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:52.760 don't went out there and ran against the basic four 0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:55.160 to three. So how do you know I can really 0:14:55.200 --> 0:14:58.760 play when I don't played against a bunch of garbage dudes? 0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:02.560 I'm saying, So, you got to know who's gonna make 0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:05.160 your team. You got to have a you know, yeah, 0:15:05.480 --> 0:15:06.680 you may disagree. 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:09.640 Yes, no, no, yeah, no, no, no, no, I agree wholeheartedly. 0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:14.240 And the reason being is like Will McClay is no idiot, right, 0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:18.360 Like he's no dummy by far. And so they look 0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:20.520 at these guys and they know, all right, this guy 0:15:21.080 --> 0:15:24.040 he's on. I mean, sixty percent of your roster is 0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:27.800 already or you know, sixty seven percent has already made. 0:15:28.680 --> 0:15:30.520 If they had to choose today, they can tell you 0:15:30.560 --> 0:15:33.000 sixty to seventy percent of their roster who it is. 0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:35.560 And now it's a guy here and there. But what 0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:39.200 you look for in ot as, what you look for 0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:43.760 in OTAs right now, I know I about sixty seven 0:15:43.800 --> 0:15:46.000 percent and that's and that's the guy that you you know, 0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:48.440 come back from last year. Your draft picks are still 0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:50.040 you know, of course in there. And then you're looking 0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:52.240 for that. You're looking for those guys that are saying, Okay, 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:54.720 who can I put on this roster? That will that 0:15:54.760 --> 0:15:57.520 will show up now after mini camp that number will 0:15:57.640 --> 0:15:59.920 rise again. The biggest thing that you want to see 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:05.320 and the OTAs in the mini camps is football is 0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:09.280 ninety percent mental, ten percent physical. And that's the biggest thing. 0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:12.240 I want to know that this person is about. 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:16.240 Stop just stop say that. Repeat that again. It is 0:16:16.840 --> 0:16:18.760 repeat what you just said, football is. 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:24.040 Football is ninety percent mental and ten percent physical. 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:30.000 Until you get hit and then its physical. Yeah, until 0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:31.440 you get hit because. 0:16:33.000 --> 0:16:36.960 Nate Nate Kurt. Listen, guys, we've all been hit. Like 0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:38.200 we've all been hit. 0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:41.680 You don't get the National Football League. 0:16:41.880 --> 0:16:43.480 Tell jayaln tobera that you. 0:16:43.400 --> 0:16:48.560 Don't get hit, you know, Jalen problem. Jaylen Tobert's problem 0:16:48.680 --> 0:16:51.520 wasn't that he couldn't take a hit, Jalen. Wasn't it 0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:54.440 that he couldn't do what was Jaya totals problem? Mental? 0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:56.840 Jayla Tober couldn't figure out what the hell of line 0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:58.800 up at? Jaya Tober couldn't fill out what the hell 0:16:58.800 --> 0:16:59.920 to do on the football field. 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:03.880 It wasn't his physical action lights. Physical action got to 0:17:04.040 --> 0:17:09.720 action what got him lights? That's mental, all men. I 0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:12.120 was all mental, That is all. 0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:13.000 Men, incidentals. 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:16.720 I do agree that for guys at your level, yeah, 0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:17.200 at that. 0:17:17.119 --> 0:17:18.159 Point it becomes mental. 0:17:18.200 --> 0:17:20.560 But for guys like me, physically, there's no way I 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:21.080 could ever. 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:22.720 Be on that field. So it's you know, but. 0:17:23.920 --> 0:17:27.480 Guy, dude tried environment.

But there's one 0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:27.040 player that Jerry's kind of continued to keep kind of 0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:31.280 his name in his mouth a little bit. Pauls.

But it's 0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:02.639 always the door is still open. We haven't closed the 0:22:02.680 --> 0:22:05.240 door on that. We're thinking, well, you know, we're looking 0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:08.320 at all our options and that option isn't dead yet. 0:22:08.320 --> 0:22:11.920 Why why do you put an end too, the Ezekiel 0:22:11.920 --> 0:22:13.800 Elliott saga. 0:22:13.280 --> 0:22:15.800 Because you know who he is and what he does 0:22:15.840 --> 0:22:20.520 for your team. You know, he know his role, and 0:22:20.560 --> 0:22:23.800 I think they think that he will accept his role. 0:22:24.280 --> 0:22:26.800 He will not be a detriment to the team. That's 0:22:26.800 --> 0:22:28.560 why I think they won't put it to bed. 0:22:28.960 --> 0:22:29.880 I mean, so you. 0:22:29.800 --> 0:22:33.879 Think, like I wonder, does he know what? Do he 0:22:33.960 --> 0:22:35.879 know his role and accept its role? And even if 0:22:35.920 --> 0:22:38.240 he would sign for three million. 0:22:38.840 --> 0:22:39.880 He would come back? 0:22:40.880 --> 0:22:41.840 Do you think so he's not. 0:22:41.840 --> 0:22:47.120 Such a big presence that Nah Pollard looking over his shoulder. 0:22:47.240 --> 0:22:47.719 I think. 0:22:48.640 --> 0:22:50.720 I think in this way, Zeg is a lot more 0:22:50.760 --> 0:22:53.360 mature than people want to give him credit for when 0:22:53.359 --> 0:22:56.120 it comes to this right here, because they still don't 0:22:56.160 --> 0:22:58.040 want to get to Pollard to ball. 0:22:57.840 --> 0:23:00.000 More than twenty snaps a game. They still do not 0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:00.840 want to do that. 0:23:03.000 --> 0:23:06.480 When Tony's at his best, it's around fifteen to twenty 0:23:06.560 --> 0:23:11.160 carries touches, whether it's throwing the ball to him, handing 0:23:11.240 --> 0:23:14.440 it to him. You don't want to lose that he's got. 0:23:14.600 --> 0:23:16.480 If you keep it where you have it at now, 0:23:16.880 --> 0:23:20.199 Tony can play another three years and be very, very explosive. 0:23:20.800 --> 0:23:24.120 You app him up just about five more snaps a game, 0:23:24.640 --> 0:23:26.440 you won't have that guy by the end of the year. 0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:30.120 So we know who Zeke hells. 0:23:30.160 --> 0:23:32.640 We know what he can do, and he's mature enough, 0:23:32.720 --> 0:23:37.639 I think, because even last year when Tony was getting 0:23:37.640 --> 0:23:39.280 out of fame, did we lose Zeke. 0:23:39.359 --> 0:23:42.080 I know the money was big for Zeke, but he 0:23:42.560 --> 0:23:43.840 can float around out here. 0:23:44.320 --> 0:23:47.800 And if you don't get anything, would you rather put 0:23:47.800 --> 0:23:49.639 your money on Zeke or would you rather put it 0:23:49.680 --> 0:23:51.320 on the new sixth round draft pick? 0:23:52.280 --> 0:23:53.639 True, he has that veteran. 0:23:53.960 --> 0:23:54.639 Yeah, my. 0:23:56.960 --> 0:24:01.760 Opinion is completely different than both of yous, completely different, 0:24:02.560 --> 0:24:06.440 completely different. Mine is a two part opinion. I'm gonna 0:24:06.480 --> 0:24:08.159 give it to you. Mine is a two part opinion. 0:24:08.840 --> 0:24:11.440 Park One is I think that I think that Jerry 0:24:11.480 --> 0:24:15.479 Jones continues to keep the Zeke Elliott thing in his 0:24:15.600 --> 0:24:19.400 mouth in the conversation is one he know, he knows 0:24:19.440 --> 0:24:21.800 when he says it, or he doesn't say it, or 0:24:21.800 --> 0:24:27.800 he leaves that mysterious type of outcome to it. We 0:24:27.840 --> 0:24:29.960 talk about it. I think it's still a topic of 0:24:30.000 --> 0:24:33.040 conversation for the Cowboys and for the Cowboys media, and 0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:36.160 so I think Jerry understands in the offseason he still 0:24:36.160 --> 0:24:39.000 wants to continue to generate that buzz and that noise 0:24:39.040 --> 0:24:41.880 and still being in the a block of every talk 0:24:41.920 --> 0:24:44.919 show hours on the networks all over the place, and 0:24:44.960 --> 0:24:46.840 still talking about in the in the article that they 0:24:46.960 --> 0:24:50.159 print online and on social media. I think he still 0:24:50.200 --> 0:24:52.200 knows that. I think he still knows as long as 0:24:52.200 --> 0:24:55.000 he does it completely in the verbally closed the door, 0:24:55.400 --> 0:24:59.200 that people will continue to drum up stories about start 0:24:59.240 --> 0:25:01.439 doing all the numbers, and a capologist will come out 0:25:01.480 --> 0:25:03.159 and they'll say, well, if they can do this and 0:25:03.240 --> 0:25:05.240 change this. So I think that's the first part that 0:25:05.320 --> 0:25:07.760 Jerry understands that as long as I keep that door 0:25:09.480 --> 0:25:14.160 open mysteriously or somehow this faint possibility, that the people 0:25:14.200 --> 0:25:15.960 will still talk about it and will still be in 0:25:16.040 --> 0:25:20.719 the news. The second thing is one thing about Jerry 0:25:20.880 --> 0:25:25.160 is that at times, at times he learns from his mistakes. 0:25:25.760 --> 0:25:29.439 And when you look at what Zeke had become to 0:25:29.520 --> 0:25:32.640 the Cowboys media, to the Cowboys fan base, Zeke went 0:25:32.760 --> 0:25:36.879 from a darling and then he kind of had his 0:25:37.040 --> 0:25:39.480 lows and they turned on them, and then they loved 0:25:39.520 --> 0:25:46.080 them again. And that part Jerry remembers what happened with Dez. 0:25:46.760 --> 0:25:50.640 He remembers how that tour the fan base apart. He 0:25:50.720 --> 0:25:53.760 remembers how the fan base were kind of divided on 0:25:53.800 --> 0:25:57.399 the whole Tony Dak situation. And so anytime you have 0:25:57.440 --> 0:26:01.440 a beloved player like Ezekiel Elliot, you kind of want 0:26:01.440 --> 0:26:03.320 to do it softly. You kind of wanted this to 0:26:03.359 --> 0:26:06.560 happen organically, like, hey, we'll continue to move on to 0:26:06.640 --> 0:26:08.840 the season, and you hope that there's no injuries to 0:26:08.880 --> 0:26:10.879 your running backs because the first injury that you have 0:26:11.000 --> 0:26:13.040 is Zeke's not on a football team. His name is 0:26:13.040 --> 0:26:14.919 gonna come up, right, So it's like, if we just 0:26:15.119 --> 0:26:17.800 organically move away from this thing. While I don't have 0:26:17.920 --> 0:26:20.919 to say that I'm completely out on Ezekiel Elliott because 0:26:21.200 --> 0:26:24.399 it's still it's still it's still wild to me that 0:26:24.520 --> 0:26:27.320 if you were going to give Zeke a second chance, 0:26:27.880 --> 0:26:31.000 then why not just work out something in the first place? 0:26:31.280 --> 0:26:34.160 Like you you you you let him go without even 0:26:34.280 --> 0:26:38.480 giving him an opportunity to to take a pay cut, 0:26:38.920 --> 0:26:40.520 and you didn't even give him a chance to say, 0:26:40.520 --> 0:26:43.359 you know what, that actually doesn't insult me, I actually 0:26:43.359 --> 0:26:45.440 will take that deal. It was like, nah, we don't 0:26:45.440 --> 0:26:47.600 want to insult him. So like that that like that's 0:26:47.640 --> 0:26:49.760 the code word for we didn't want to insult him, 0:26:49.800 --> 0:26:53.280 but really, we don't want for you anything like. We 0:26:53.320 --> 0:26:56.240 don't want you like. We're not offering you nothing like nothing. 0:26:56.600 --> 0:26:59.680 So the whole thing about Zeke coming back is why 0:26:59.760 --> 0:27:01.800 why why would you want a person to come back 0:27:01.840 --> 0:27:03.800 when you already had him and he didn't have to leave, 0:27:03.880 --> 0:27:07.960 you let him go. You willingly released him without even 0:27:08.000 --> 0:27:10.719 giving him a chance to be insulted by a lower number, 0:27:11.000 --> 0:27:12.920 and now all of a sudden he's gonna come back 0:27:12.960 --> 0:27:17.119 for that lower number. No. I think this is Jerry 0:27:17.240 --> 0:27:20.480 understanding that as long as I don't completely close the door, 0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:23.119 people will still speculate about it, and that keeps us 0:27:23.160 --> 0:27:26.280 in the conversation, which he loves. And then the second 0:27:26.280 --> 0:27:28.920 part about it is he understands that if I'm too 0:27:29.080 --> 0:27:34.160 hard on this breakup, then I possibly offend some fans 0:27:34.160 --> 0:27:36.320 because they begin to say, you know, Jerry, you should 0:27:36.359 --> 0:27:37.760 have done it better than that. He gave a lot 0:27:37.800 --> 0:27:39.720 for this football team, what about no, no da dah. 0:27:39.720 --> 0:27:42.280 And he doesn't want to create that fraction between the 0:27:42.280 --> 0:27:45.120 fan base and the football team like it was when 0:27:45.320 --> 0:27:47.000 they let Dez go, and they like it was when 0:27:47.000 --> 0:27:49.520 they let Tony go. He understands that that the fan 0:27:49.600 --> 0:27:55.560 base they live and die with these players and how 0:27:55.560 --> 0:27:57.200 you treat these players and so on and so forth. 0:27:57.240 --> 0:27:59.399 So he want to make sure that this thing just 0:27:59.480 --> 0:28:02.000 kind of fair needs away. We get into training camp 0:28:02.080 --> 0:28:04.560 and things going well, so they hope that there's great 0:28:04.600 --> 0:28:07.399 reports about Tony Pollitzer. People just kind of just we 0:28:07.440 --> 0:28:09.320 get into the season and just it just goes away, 0:28:09.320 --> 0:28:11.280 and you just move on to the next thing, and 0:28:11.280 --> 0:28:14.440 they'll go, Man, you know, Zeke was a really good 0:28:14.440 --> 0:28:16.840 player and you don't have him anymore. 0:28:16.920 --> 0:28:19.600 But you talk about like the fraction. I mean, does 0:28:19.640 --> 0:28:21.240 this affect the guys in the room at all time? 0:28:21.720 --> 0:28:23.639 Do they care? Are they tired of hearing about this? 0:28:24.160 --> 0:28:27.720 No, I'm gonna tell you something. Man, When you first 0:28:27.760 --> 0:28:31.560 hear it as a player for my group, we're like, 0:28:31.600 --> 0:28:34.719 oh man, big New, Oh man, we're gonna miss big New. 0:28:34.840 --> 0:28:39.239 No, man, hey Stone, you ready to play? You know 0:28:39.320 --> 0:28:43.040 you got you know you you feel Zeke? 0:28:43.240 --> 0:28:46.640 Like I say, But good, good theory anyway, Je's probably 0:28:46.720 --> 0:28:47.479 the right theory. 0:28:47.800 --> 0:28:48.600 Uh. 0:28:49.000 --> 0:28:54.080 But my bottom line is this right here. Uh, if 0:28:54.160 --> 0:28:56.440 Zeke was to come back, I think he would be 0:28:56.520 --> 0:28:59.320 mature enough. I don't think he'll fracture that that deal. 0:29:00.240 --> 0:29:04.440 It'll put some guys on hold, you know, and maybe 0:29:04.480 --> 0:29:07.920 you don't want to do that. But Zeke is not 0:29:08.000 --> 0:29:10.440 bad for this team. He's you know, at least that's 0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:12.320 what I feel, you know, he's. 0:29:12.160 --> 0:29:14.520 Not bad for role. Yeah. 0:29:14.840 --> 0:29:19.640 So but this is the thing that's going he already 0:29:19.800 --> 0:29:23.200 faded away. I think it must just say, like missus 0:29:23.280 --> 0:29:25.680 Jones just in the media he wanted to, you know, 0:29:25.720 --> 0:29:28.640 but in the locker room, ain't nobody looking around trying 0:29:28.680 --> 0:29:32.680 to hey, wait, Zeke man gone be gone. 0:29:32.720 --> 0:29:34.880 Bro he gonet believe. 0:29:34.560 --> 0:29:41.320 That Ricoddo ain't looking for Zeke. Ronald Jones ain't looking. 0:29:41.040 --> 0:29:42.680 For the six round pick. 0:29:44.680 --> 0:29:47.840 Duke Vaughn ain't looking for Zeke. Tony Pollard ain't looking 0:29:47.880 --> 0:29:50.320 for They'll get in front of the media as they 0:29:50.640 --> 0:29:52.720 as they should. They'll go, well, you know, was a 0:29:52.720 --> 0:29:55.520 good friend, he's a good team. But that's the unwritten 0:29:56.560 --> 0:29:59.880 d that's the unwritten law that is spoken, like when 0:30:00.120 --> 0:30:01.960 you hate to lose a guy, but you but I 0:30:02.040 --> 0:30:06.680 promise you. Like when they let Rigo Dado was happy 0:30:06.680 --> 0:30:09.719 about that, like not in a negative sense, and like 0:30:09.760 --> 0:30:12.120 you know, he was like, you know what more reps 0:30:12.120 --> 0:30:14.760 for me, more opportunities for me. Yeah, So guys in 0:30:14.800 --> 0:30:17.560 that room are not like, hey, bring back Zeke now, 0:30:17.600 --> 0:30:19.520 if he comes back, they'll do the right things. Our 0:30:19.560 --> 0:30:21.440 brother is back and we'll make we'll make it work. 0:30:21.800 --> 0:30:24.840 But trust me, the guy that Zeke's reps are gonna 0:30:24.840 --> 0:30:27.840 get snatched up from that, he's gonna snatch up reps 0:30:27.840 --> 0:30:30.280 from They ain't happy to if he comes back. They 0:30:30.400 --> 0:30:32.680 you know, they're not. They're not worried about mister Jones 0:30:32.720 --> 0:30:35.920 saying it. But when they when Zeke departed, the guys, 0:30:35.960 --> 0:30:38.640 guys goes all right, there there goes another fifteen to 0:30:38.720 --> 0:30:42.640 twenty reps that I have the potential to get. Yeah, 0:30:42.840 --> 0:30:45.480 now however that breaks down in my favor or you 0:30:45.520 --> 0:30:48.720 know whatever. But there's now there's fifteen to twenty reps 0:30:48.760 --> 0:30:51.400 that have now opened up that I have opportunity in 0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:54.120 and OTA's in mini camp and training camp to win 0:30:54.200 --> 0:30:56.960 those routes. If you know, Tony Pollard, whenever he's ready 0:30:56.960 --> 0:31:00.960 to go full time, you know, I gotta make my way. 0:31:01.160 --> 0:31:03.400 I gotta I gotta show these coaches that you know, 0:31:03.520 --> 0:31:05.920 I'm ready for that, whatever that role is, whatever that 0:31:06.000 --> 0:31:08.360 next role is for me, I gotta show them I'm 0:31:08.400 --> 0:31:10.600 ready for it, and now I have fifteen to twenty 0:31:10.640 --> 0:31:13.280 more opportunities to do so because he is not here. 0:31:13.400 --> 0:31:15.880 Damn, it's perfect. 0:31:16.400 --> 0:31:20.959 They are set up now, perfect because you got the 0:31:20.960 --> 0:31:23.000 twenty reps that Tony would get. 0:31:23.840 --> 0:31:24.960 And then, like Jef. 0:31:24.880 --> 0:31:28.960 Said, the Rico'donalds, the little guy, the other little guy. 0:31:29.200 --> 0:31:31.480 The little six round pick Jones. 0:31:32.240 --> 0:31:35.280 You know, now you find out what they do well 0:31:36.680 --> 0:31:39.720 and you and that's what you cater to. So now 0:31:39.920 --> 0:31:45.320 now you still got thirty touches, Yeah, thirty touches, the 0:31:45.440 --> 0:31:47.680 twenty that my man gonna get to ten or fifteen, 0:31:48.320 --> 0:31:51.720 you know that the other guy's gonna get. But the 0:31:51.800 --> 0:31:54.960 guy who's gonna win is that guy that can play 0:31:55.000 --> 0:31:58.840 third down. If I'm giving rico'donald or any of these guys, 0:31:58.960 --> 0:32:00.240 if you really want to. 0:32:00.080 --> 0:32:03.760 Win, be able to handle third down blitzes. 0:32:03.960 --> 0:32:07.080 The guy that can step forward and handle these blitzes 0:32:07.160 --> 0:32:10.600 the best, that's the guy that's gonna get the mixtra reps. 0:32:11.000 --> 0:32:13.760 And then other things are falling your lap. You know 0:32:13.800 --> 0:32:16.000 what I'm saying. Other things are falling your lap? You agree? 0:32:16.120 --> 0:32:16.239 Yes? 0:32:16.360 --> 0:32:17.160 Are you there with me? 0:32:18.760 --> 0:32:20.560 Yeah? I agree with you one hundred percent. The biggest 0:32:20.560 --> 0:32:21.760 thing you want to do is find a way on 0:32:21.800 --> 0:32:22.160 the field. 0:32:22.360 --> 0:32:22.600 Yeah. 0:32:22.640 --> 0:32:24.200 If I can find my way on the field good, 0:32:24.240 --> 0:32:26.840 you know, like whether it's third downs, whether it's whatever 0:32:26.880 --> 0:32:29.520 it is, short yardage, whatever, If I can find my 0:32:29.640 --> 0:32:32.240 way into the rotation, into the good graces of the 0:32:32.280 --> 0:32:35.280 coaches and their rotation, then what ended up happening is 0:32:35.320 --> 0:32:37.360 as a year goes on, they find more and more 0:32:37.400 --> 0:32:39.960 opportunities for us. And that's all I want. I just 0:32:40.000 --> 0:32:42.560 want opportunities. I want trust from the coaches. I want 0:32:42.600 --> 0:32:47.040 opportunities when when the situation calls for And you know, 0:32:47.760 --> 0:32:51.960 in these games, the thing about sports is that you 0:32:52.160 --> 0:32:56.240 can't predict what's going to happen down in, down out. 0:32:56.440 --> 0:32:58.280 You know, you can come in as a backup one 0:32:58.360 --> 0:33:00.520 day and the starter can twist it ain't going on 0:33:00.560 --> 0:33:04.240 the first play the game. You could come in as 0:33:04.240 --> 0:33:07.960 a backup, and you know, the guy goes down and 0:33:07.960 --> 0:33:09.760 now all of a sudden he's out three to four weeks, 0:33:10.120 --> 0:33:12.080 and now you have an opportunity to come in. We 0:33:12.120 --> 0:33:14.520 see it all the time when guys we're backups and 0:33:14.560 --> 0:33:15.800 all of a sudden, the guy in front of him 0:33:15.840 --> 0:33:18.160 goes out and the backup guy comes in and these 0:33:18.200 --> 0:33:21.400 surgers to to the ascension of the starter and builds 0:33:21.400 --> 0:33:23.360 a name for himself and that can get you some 0:33:23.400 --> 0:33:26.200 money down the line. So it's all about how can 0:33:26.280 --> 0:33:30.160 I create opportunities for coaches to trust me to get 0:33:30.400 --> 0:33:35.440 into the rotation. Let's trust, Let's trust and believe. Yeah, 0:33:35.520 --> 0:33:37.719 let's let trust and believe that we're going to continue 0:33:37.760 --> 0:33:41.120 to do great things in this third segment.

The 0:36:42.480 --> 0:36:46.640 other day, I was looking at the Jets game. I 0:36:46.719 --> 0:36:48.920 got some you know, people from Jersey. I was like, hey, 0:36:49.000 --> 0:36:50.560 I want to come out for the desk and I 0:36:50.640 --> 0:36:56.320 was just true, like looking at tickets. Boy, Arry gets it, man, 0:36:56.560 --> 0:36:59.960 mister Jones. I was looking at like fifty, like fifty 0:37:00.120 --> 0:37:05.799 yard line lower Bowl tickets for a Jets game in 0:37:05.800 --> 0:37:09.840 the one hundred section, over two thousand dollars per ticket. 0:37:11.640 --> 0:37:14.319 Yeah, man, they're not losing money over there. 0:37:15.040 --> 0:37:17.560 We need to win that game. No, no, no, we 0:37:17.600 --> 0:37:18.479 need to win that game. 0:37:18.800 --> 0:37:23.360 He's getting that money. Speaking about quarterbacks, of course, that 0:37:23.480 --> 0:37:26.919 game is going to be featured with Aaron Rodgers first 0:37:27.000 --> 0:37:29.880 Dak Prescott. But Chris Simms came out and he ranked 0:37:29.960 --> 0:37:34.719 that thirteenth among quarterbacks, behind guys like Kurt Cunneys and 0:37:34.840 --> 0:37:38.160 Daniel Jones and Matthew Stafford and has him third in 0:37:38.200 --> 0:37:42.359 the division. I think we all are on the other 0:37:42.440 --> 0:37:48.879 side of agreed disagree in this conversation. But thirteenth best 0:37:48.920 --> 0:37:54.600 thirteen better quarterbacks. I think, you know, I think Chris Simms. 0:37:54.800 --> 0:37:58.520 I think Chris Sims is part of that PFF personnel 0:37:58.600 --> 0:38:02.360 type situation, and he's looking for that. You know, so 0:38:02.440 --> 0:38:04.800 many guys now are looking for the next hot shot 0:38:04.880 --> 0:38:08.480 thing to say. Right, and again you're saying about the 0:38:08.560 --> 0:38:11.400 Dallas Cowboys and about this quarterback in dark Prescott, did 0:38:11.440 --> 0:38:15.440 you put him thirteenth in the National Football League? I 0:38:15.600 --> 0:38:19.560 just I think that's that's a lot of clickbait from 0:38:19.560 --> 0:38:21.839 a guy like Chris Sims, or you would hope would 0:38:21.880 --> 0:38:25.560 have a little bit better understanding of the quarterback position. 0:38:25.800 --> 0:38:29.000 Yeah, he's got I mean, like Jesse mentioned, Kirk Cousins 0:38:29.040 --> 0:38:32.799 is twelfth, Daniel Jones the Giants is eleven, Staffords tenth. 0:38:33.120 --> 0:38:34.680 I mean you got to think he's a I mean, 0:38:34.719 --> 0:38:36.480 would you put him above those three? Make him a 0:38:36.520 --> 0:38:37.680 top ten CAMPI yeah. 0:38:37.560 --> 0:38:43.280 Yeah, yeah. You know, it's can you protect the ball? 0:38:44.840 --> 0:38:47.959 And that's what it's gonna come down to this year, 0:38:49.440 --> 0:38:52.960 especially with the new offense. Is Dak willing to protect 0:38:53.000 --> 0:38:57.600 the ball because now it's Ceedee Lamb willing to step 0:38:57.680 --> 0:39:01.440 up and do the extra studying. I know, Cookills he's 0:39:01.480 --> 0:39:04.600 shown to be that type of veteran. Is Michael Gallup 0:39:04.880 --> 0:39:09.040 willing to be that guy? And it's Jalen Tobert. Is 0:39:09.040 --> 0:39:11.359 he walking around with the playbooks stamp to his head? 0:39:12.120 --> 0:39:12.200 Now? 0:39:12.520 --> 0:39:17.719 I'm being honest, because if they're not with them four 0:39:17.760 --> 0:39:20.319 preseason games, you don't want to be one in three. 0:39:20.760 --> 0:39:25.239 I keep telling New York and New York they love 0:39:25.280 --> 0:39:27.439 him so great, till they name them twice New York, 0:39:27.480 --> 0:39:30.279 New York, they love the city so great. Come on, man, 0:39:30.840 --> 0:39:33.239 we need those two games. We need one of those 0:39:33.280 --> 0:39:36.160 two games. We cannot come out of there without that. 0:39:36.480 --> 0:39:39.719 Is the fact that Prescott has got a you know, 0:39:39.760 --> 0:39:41.719 he's staring at an extension here that he's got to 0:39:41.760 --> 0:39:42.279 get worked out. 0:39:42.360 --> 0:39:45.400 Is that factor into this at all? Is play once ahead? 0:39:46.160 --> 0:39:46.399 Man? 0:39:46.600 --> 0:39:49.759 I think they're gonna give an extension anyway. What you think, Jess. 0:39:49.800 --> 0:39:52.520 I think they're giving that to him anyway, I really do. 0:39:52.880 --> 0:39:53.000 So. 0:39:53.719 --> 0:39:56.279 I'm just praying that the receivers, half quarter back. 0:39:56.560 --> 0:39:58.040 The way that's set up, if they want to sign 0:39:58.080 --> 0:40:00.319 in these other guys that are looking for extensions or 0:40:00.520 --> 0:40:02.719 new deals, they've they've got an extend Dak. 0:40:02.760 --> 0:40:06.359 It looks like, yeah, I do think the extension will 0:40:06.400 --> 0:40:09.279 happen for Dak. But what that number will look like, 0:40:09.360 --> 0:40:12.800 what those guarantees will look like will definitely determine course 0:40:12.840 --> 0:40:15.400 of play. If that comes out earlier in this year 0:40:15.440 --> 0:40:18.440 and is on that same turnover carousel that he was 0:40:18.760 --> 0:40:21.320 at least like he ended the year last year. That 0:40:21.560 --> 0:40:24.440 that hurts the bottom line, That hurts the product and everything. 0:40:24.960 --> 0:40:27.439 Anytime you're not doing anything good, that means you're doing 0:40:27.480 --> 0:40:30.680 something bad and that overall hurts the product. So for Dak, 0:40:31.040 --> 0:40:34.120 while an extension is looking him in the face, for 0:40:34.280 --> 0:40:38.799 him and his representatives, I'm sure they want to get 0:40:38.800 --> 0:40:43.120 this thing done before the season starts, because if the season, 0:40:43.719 --> 0:40:47.719 if the season starts, and again, some may say Dak 0:40:47.800 --> 0:40:51.200 isn't injury prone, some may say Dak is hinting injury prone. 0:40:51.239 --> 0:40:54.080 Some may say he's injury prone. You do not know 0:40:54.120 --> 0:40:56.400 how these things are going to shake out weekend and 0:40:56.440 --> 0:41:00.960 week out. Thumb, shoulders, knees, ankles, head showed his knees 0:41:01.000 --> 0:41:03.080 and toes. You just never know how stuff is going 0:41:03.120 --> 0:41:05.640 to work out, you know, weekend and week out. In 0:41:05.719 --> 0:41:08.400 the National Football League, you're upright one second and then 0:41:08.400 --> 0:41:11.200 you're getting carted off the next second. That's the reality 0:41:11.280 --> 0:41:13.920 of the football game that we that we love to 0:41:14.040 --> 0:41:17.200 play and to watch. So for Dak the extension is 0:41:17.280 --> 0:41:19.200 looking at him in the face right that that that 0:41:19.320 --> 0:41:21.560 makes the sense, that makes the most sense, and it 0:41:21.600 --> 0:41:23.600 makes the smart money sense that they're going to sign 0:41:23.600 --> 0:41:26.319 these other guys. But if you don't get it done 0:41:26.400 --> 0:41:30.600 before the season, and you you continue another season and 0:41:30.640 --> 0:41:32.799 you lead the league in turnovers, or you have an 0:41:32.800 --> 0:41:36.080 injury that will affect the bottom dollar number like that, 0:41:36.080 --> 0:41:39.160 that's that's factual because people aren't going to pay top 0:41:39.200 --> 0:41:41.480 dollar for a guy who's injured. People aren't going to 0:41:41.560 --> 0:41:43.920 pay a top dollar for a guy who for two 0:41:44.000 --> 0:41:46.000 years who you know, if he has turnovers and problems 0:41:46.040 --> 0:41:48.080 again next year, two years in a row, is at 0:41:48.120 --> 0:41:50.520 the top of the league in turnovers. That becomes now 0:41:50.600 --> 0:41:53.680 sort of a trend and people looking at that saying, well, oh, 0:41:53.719 --> 0:41:57.120 this is this is this is what's happening. Then I 0:41:57.160 --> 0:41:58.600 don't know if we can give them all this money 0:41:58.640 --> 0:41:58.920 right now. 0:41:59.000 --> 0:42:02.200 Yeah. So I think it was Steven yesterday. It might 0:42:02.239 --> 0:42:03.520 have been Jerry. They both spoke. 0:42:04.719 --> 0:42:06.839 You know, they've got some other guys they need trying 0:42:06.840 --> 0:42:10.000 to sign new deals with extensions, digs steal. I think 0:42:10.040 --> 0:42:13.040 the Odish is in there. Lamb Parsons down the road 0:42:13.400 --> 0:42:17.120 can they said that they'd like to get two or 0:42:17.120 --> 0:42:20.160 three done this summer, but they also said none of 0:42:20.200 --> 0:42:23.040 that is affected by what has to happen with Dak. 0:42:23.160 --> 0:42:23.640 Is that true? 0:42:23.680 --> 0:42:25.399 Can they make all these other deals if they don't 0:42:25.400 --> 0:42:27.240 know where their quarterback stands on his contract? 0:42:29.600 --> 0:42:33.920 Me, I don't know what their priority this is, so 0:42:34.360 --> 0:42:37.399 you know what their money situation is. I'm not a capologist, 0:42:37.440 --> 0:42:40.640 So you, Jesse, you have any thoughts on that, because 0:42:41.080 --> 0:42:43.080 I've been known Miss Jones, he's too much of a 0:42:43.120 --> 0:42:46.319 wizard and have wizards working for him that when he 0:42:46.440 --> 0:42:49.280 wants to get something done, I've seen him work magic. 0:42:49.360 --> 0:42:52.040 So I'm gonna stay out. 0:42:51.880 --> 0:42:57.080 Of that my pay grade. Yeah. Absolutely. And that's the 0:42:57.120 --> 0:42:59.120 thing that we've come to now in the National Football 0:42:59.160 --> 0:43:01.400 League is you can make all these numbers jump. You 0:43:01.400 --> 0:43:03.840 can have all you can you can you can simone 0:43:03.920 --> 0:43:07.279 Biles and gymnastics jump all these numbers and contracts and 0:43:07.640 --> 0:43:10.040 what you signed to today. If you need to make that, 0:43:10.160 --> 0:43:13.520 restructure that contract or change this around and create voided 0:43:13.640 --> 0:43:17.799 years and all that stuff now is so readily available 0:43:17.880 --> 0:43:21.640 to you know, two front offices. It's all about if 0:43:21.680 --> 0:43:23.200 they want to do it. We look across the league 0:43:23.200 --> 0:43:26.120 all the time, you constantly say, how does this team 0:43:26.160 --> 0:43:28.000 still have money to do stuff? How does that team 0:43:28.040 --> 0:43:30.080 still have money to do stuff? Like I thought they 0:43:30.080 --> 0:43:33.200 were in cap hell? And now eventually it'll catch up 0:43:33.239 --> 0:43:35.080 to you down the road. But you can keep kicking 0:43:35.080 --> 0:43:37.040 his can and kicking this can and kicking his can, 0:43:37.760 --> 0:43:40.080 you know, down the road, and eventually we all get 0:43:40.080 --> 0:43:42.120 to a point where you know, we're gonna need a 0:43:42.160 --> 0:43:45.520 new new quarterback, and so you it's gonna reset because 0:43:45.560 --> 0:43:48.520 you're not gonna be paying the forty fifty sixty million 0:43:48.560 --> 0:43:51.520 dollars a year for a quarterback because now that quarterback's 0:43:51.560 --> 0:43:53.400 on this rookie deal and it kind of it'll reset 0:43:53.400 --> 0:43:55.640 itself later on down the line. It may not be 0:43:55.719 --> 0:43:58.400 profitable for the team because you'll be in a rebuilding mode. 0:43:58.719 --> 0:44:02.160 But again, you can always make this thing do whatever 0:44:02.200 --> 0:44:05.400 you wanted to do in terms of the numbers and 0:44:05.640 --> 0:44:09.320 creating cap space and cap room uh to to to 0:44:09.320 --> 0:44:12.680 to sign the players that you most importantly want to 0:44:12.680 --> 0:44:13.560 sign to their deals. 0:44:13.640 --> 0:44:16.239 But out of that, you know, take Dak out of 0:44:16.239 --> 0:44:18.120 the equation, not of that other group. But it sounds 0:44:18.160 --> 0:44:21.839 like they've reached out to to Diggs people Lambs. If 0:44:21.840 --> 0:44:24.680 I'm Steel, I think I'm running to the ownership right now. 0:44:24.680 --> 0:44:27.319 About who out of that group do you think would 0:44:27.320 --> 0:44:31.920 be the priority? Just whoever steps up or City Lamb? 0:44:33.640 --> 0:44:38.480 What do you think Nate cite Lamb then then then 0:44:38.520 --> 0:44:42.640 Diggs then Steal. If I'm Steel, would be easier, Yeah, 0:44:42.840 --> 0:44:44.080 easier fix if. 0:44:44.000 --> 0:44:46.080 I'm still I'm looking at it like Jalen Smith a 0:44:46.080 --> 0:44:48.200 few years ago when Zeke was up and these other guys, 0:44:48.239 --> 0:44:51.560 I'm like, give me my money now, because who knows 0:44:51.600 --> 0:44:52.640 what's going to happen. 0:44:52.600 --> 0:44:54.840 Now they're gonna have to pay steal. They don't have 0:44:54.840 --> 0:44:57.000 to pay steal. I mean is it'll be easy to 0:44:57.200 --> 0:44:59.600 fix with steal. That's why I ain't got in prod. 0:45:00.360 --> 0:45:03.960 It'll be easier fix. But Digs can get kind of tricky, 0:45:04.000 --> 0:45:07.239 and Lamb can get kind of tricky, depending on you know, 0:45:08.200 --> 0:45:10.480 who you're talking to and what you what you're working with. 0:45:11.800 --> 0:45:16.440 You know, yes, Steells deal. Steele's deal will be the 0:45:16.520 --> 0:45:19.080 easiest of the three deals to make, right because he's 0:45:19.120 --> 0:45:22.000 the lowest and kind of like you know, like does 0:45:22.040 --> 0:45:24.040 he has a little bit of wiggle room or a 0:45:24.080 --> 0:45:26.359 little bit of leverage, but not much leverage you know, 0:45:26.600 --> 0:45:29.440 so it's like his deal for a right tackle is 0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:31.880 kind of almost set in stone when you when you 0:45:31.920 --> 0:45:33.960 want to when you start dealing with the skill guys 0:45:34.000 --> 0:45:36.080 like a digs, like a like a CD Lamb, and 0:45:36.120 --> 0:45:38.080 now you start talking about, I want to be paid 0:45:38.080 --> 0:45:40.400 as one of the best dvs. I want to be 0:45:40.440 --> 0:45:42.200 paid as one of the best receivers in the league. 0:45:42.239 --> 0:45:44.799 And so those numbers, now, if it's a dollar more 0:45:44.840 --> 0:45:47.120 than what the other guy got, or if it's dollar 0:45:47.200 --> 0:45:49.880 more than what the other highest paid dB got, that 0:45:50.080 --> 0:45:53.200 those are the contract that really can kind of begin 0:45:53.400 --> 0:45:56.680 to to to to stick you a little bit, because 0:45:56.719 --> 0:45:58.400 now you're talking about a receiver that's going to be 0:45:58.400 --> 0:46:02.239 making somewhere and uppers between sixteen to twenty million dollars 0:46:02.280 --> 0:46:05.040 a season, right like that that's gonna be the number 0:46:05.080 --> 0:46:08.440 for CD Lamb, And that's a lot of money to 0:46:08.520 --> 0:46:11.360 commit to. Like when you think about it, like you'll 0:46:11.400 --> 0:46:16.480 you'll you'll have committed to four players, and most NFL teams, 0:46:16.560 --> 0:46:21.719 if you look at the way that they're constructed, out 0:46:21.719 --> 0:46:24.160 of the fifty sixty guys that they have in their roster, 0:46:24.680 --> 0:46:27.920 majority of the salary cap goes to about five to 0:46:27.960 --> 0:46:36.279 seven players, yes, quarterback, tackle, in corner, receiver, maybe another 0:46:36.320 --> 0:46:39.279 pass catcher. Right, So like most of those guys, most 0:46:39.280 --> 0:46:41.560 of your most of your salary cap is eaten up 0:46:41.960 --> 0:46:45.120 by between five to seven players on every NFL roster. 0:46:45.200 --> 0:46:47.520 You can look at it, five to seven players make 0:46:47.600 --> 0:46:51.200 up a large majority of the money in the salary cap. 0:46:51.280 --> 0:46:54.400 So if I'm still I agree, I'm running to the 0:46:54.440 --> 0:46:56.920 table saying, hey, sign me first, Let's get me out 0:46:56.920 --> 0:46:58.799 the way. Let's get me out the way. I'll put 0:46:58.800 --> 0:47:01.040 it whatever things you need to put in. But it's 0:47:01.080 --> 0:47:03.600 going to be for the diva positions, you know, for 0:47:03.640 --> 0:47:05.360 the for the skill position. Those are going to be 0:47:05.360 --> 0:47:08.920 the guys who want to to make that splash and say, 0:47:09.080 --> 0:47:11.320 and their agency as well, hey my receiver is the 0:47:11.400 --> 0:47:14.600 highest paid receiver. Even if if it's about fifty cents, 0:47:14.880 --> 0:47:16.520 I can say that I'm the highest paid receiver in 0:47:16.560 --> 0:47:20.040 the National Football League. And their owners, their their their 0:47:20.080 --> 0:47:26.000 representation can say the same. Yep, true, Wow, is that it? 0:47:26.080 --> 0:47:26.640 That's all we got? 0:47:27.239 --> 0:47:27.560 We got? 0:47:28.320 --> 0:47:33.239 Chris last Man. Correct, this is your last show.
