Here's Nick Eatman. 7 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: Good morning, Welcome to Cowboys Storyline. Wednesday, February the eleventh. 8 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: It's the official offseason now for everybody. Everyone's in the offseason. 9 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: Got a Super Bowl winner, Seahawks get the win. I 10 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 1: don't know how you guys feel about that, and maybe 11 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: you were pulling for the NFC, pulling for de Marcus 12 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,319 Speaker 1: Lawrence against the Marcus Lawrence against the Patriots, whatever it is. 13 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 1: But now it's offseason for everyone. It's time to see 14 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: where this Cowboys team's gonna do. You know what they're 15 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: gonna do to get better? I mean, I mean, that's 16 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,959 Speaker 1: that's the goal for everyone. And obviously their offense was 17 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: really good. It had to be perfect. Wasn't perfect at times, 18 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: and with the defense like that, you have to, uh, 19 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: you had to be almost perfect on that side of 20 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: the ball. And there were times where the offense did 21 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: carry them to victory, but not enough. We know that 22 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: that's not breaking news there. You guys have already you know, 23 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: been all over it on on what this team needs 24 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: to do to get better that starting with the coaching 25 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: staff on that side of the ball, we've seen a 26 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: lot of changes. They sound good. We'll see what they 27 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: can do as far as you know, coach these players 28 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: and which players are going to coach because there's gonna 29 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 1: be a lot of turnover over there as there should be. 30 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: All right, eight A A, eight, five, five two two 31 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,119 Speaker 1: nine sevens the number to call. We'll start with Brian 32 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: in Kansas City, like we do most of the time. Brian, 33 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: what's up. 34 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 3: Good morning, sir morning. Well, you know, I I really 35 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 3: got to give it to Sam Darnold talk about a 36 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 3: man who had reinvented himself, right. I mean there's a 37 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: guy who was basically forgotten about by the league. You know, 38 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 3: three years ago he's backing up Rock Party and he's 39 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 3: basically nobody. Right, the league said, forget about the first 40 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 3: round draft pick. We just got that one wrong. And 41 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 3: you know you could be a backup and next thing, 42 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 3: you know, he's got two with both I think both 43 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 3: seasons they went fourteen and three, the Vikings in the 44 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 3: in the Hawks last year and just kind of an 45 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 3: unbelievable thing to see. 46 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 4: And he's not you know, he's. 47 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 3: Not Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes. But boy did he 48 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 3: reinvent himself and make himself the best version of Sam Darnold. 49 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 5: He could be. 50 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 3: Kind of interesting to watch. I thought, Yeah, so good well. 51 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: And not good enough for the Vikings to keep, you know, 52 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: I mean, so's he is kind of unique in that 53 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: you you think, you know, yes, he's good. He wins games, 54 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: he doesn't kind of blow you away with Hollie plays 55 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: the game, and so therefore you always think you can 56 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: kind of do better, get better. But yeah, I think 57 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: it's funny when people try to pick who are your 58 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: top five quarterbacks in the NFC? And I see it 59 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: all over I saw two times yesterday. Who cares? Because 60 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: two years ago, would you have had Sam Darnold in 61 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: your top twelve of the NFC? Would you had Matt 62 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: Stafford even up there? You know what I mean? So 63 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: I look at it from a standpoint where Dak is 64 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: Dak's not maybe considered a top five? Who cares? 65 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 6: You know? 66 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: Neither is Jalen Hurts and he won a Super Bowl. 67 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: So it all matters is are you good enough? And 68 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: I think there's eight to ten that are good enough. 69 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: And as long as you know you've got the right 70 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: guys around. 71 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 3: You, Yeah, absolutely so. My Cowboys question for today is 72 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 3: I just laughed when you said that he wouldn't have 73 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 3: been in your top twenty. 74 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. 75 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 3: No, you're right, though he wouldn't have been, he just 76 00:03:55,240 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 3: wouldn't have been. My Cowboys question for today is I'm curious, Uh, 77 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 3: you know, everybody knows we need defense. I'm curious whether 78 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 3: everybody is on the same page I am with we 79 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 3: also need an offensive tackle. I don't think we have 80 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 3: a starting offensive tackle right now, not a proven one. 81 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 3: And what how do people want to go about that? 82 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 3: Do people want to give Nate a a second chance, 83 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 3: you know, to prove that he can beat somebody out? 84 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 3: You know, do they want free agency? Do they want 85 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 3: to you know, do they want to use one of 86 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 3: those two top draft picks to pick one? And then 87 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 3: what do you think, you know, what do you think 88 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 3: we should do? Personally? I think there's a Green Bay 89 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 3: offensive tackle that's due to come up for a free agency. 90 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 3: You know, there's one or two other It's not a 91 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 3: ton this year in free agency, and it's not a 92 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,359 Speaker 3: great draft class for it either, but that would be 93 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 3: my first pick. I think, so that we could use 94 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 3: the draft capital for defense. But let's get your opinion 95 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 3: and hear what everybody else says. 96 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 1: Thank you, Brian. You know, I've heard a lot of 97 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: people say that it's real easy. You just cut Terrence Steele. 98 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,559 Speaker 1: You know, you save some money there. Maybe nine million, 99 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: I think is what's what I saw it. Also, you 100 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: could do a June one cut and maybe make more. 101 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: Don't hold me to those numbers exactly, but I know 102 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: they can save some money if you want to cut 103 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: Terrence Steele. But I believe Terrence Steele is like the 104 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: twenty fourth rated offensive tackle. I mean as far as salary, 105 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: salary goes highest paid tackles like twenty four. So yeah, 106 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 1: you can save money. But the point is is who 107 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: are you bringing in? And you know you got to 108 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: use some of that money to go get another tackle, 109 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 1: and you know you want to roll the dice and 110 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: get another younger guy and maybe hope to develop him 111 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: or whatever. I've never been against Terrence Steele as bad 112 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: as maybe others are. I think in a situation like 113 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: what they had, like you're running the football, I think 114 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: he you know, he was pretty good at that, and 115 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: I think he's he's solid. I mean, if you want 116 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: to save money and go younger, and you know, like 117 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: I said, roll the dice, go for it. But like 118 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: you know, those options you mentioned, Brian, I don't know 119 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: if I did I even hear you say, keep Tyler 120 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: getting at left tackle. I mean didn't. I don't even 121 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: know if I heard you say that. But that's what 122 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,040 Speaker 1: I think the coupleys want to do. They want him 123 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: to develop and to be their left tackle, and so 124 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: I think that will be. You know, he'll he'll have 125 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: a shot whether he's left tackle, maybe he moves to 126 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: right tackle. But I at number twenty, I think at 127 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: twelve you got to go get a defensive player. At twelve, 128 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: I think you still got to get a defensive player. 129 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: But I wouldn't be opposed to it. If you're telling 130 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: me there's a guy here that could come in and 131 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 1: start it, and he would be an offensive tackle that 132 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: would start immediately at number twenty, I would be I 133 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: would be fine with that too. So I'm with you 134 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: that I think they need a little bit of help there, 135 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: all right. Chris and Saratoga Springs Chris what's up man? 136 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 4: Thanks for holding no, no problem. How are you, Nick? 137 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 4: I'm good you not too bad? Not too bad? 138 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 6: Uh. 139 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 4: Just want to point out about Sam Donald. You know, 140 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 4: I am happy for him. You know he's come a 141 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 4: long way from the Jets. But the bottom line is 142 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 4: the last two years he's had unbelievable defenses and that 143 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 4: game wasn't won the Super Bowl wide the offense. It 144 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 4: was won by the col defense. In my opinion, congratulations 145 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 4: with Sam. Uh, you know it's good. I'm happy for him. 146 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 4: But defense wins championships has proven again and that's where 147 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 4: we need to focus. Obviously again coming up in the draft. Yeah, 148 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 4: I do want to say how disappointed again I am 149 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 4: with the Hall of Fame. They need they need to 150 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 4: fix it. They need to fix the process of the selection. 151 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 4: Woodson obviously deserves to be in there. How you keep 152 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 4: build Belichick off first ballot Hall of Fame? Is it's 153 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 4: un real. They need to fix it. I agree with 154 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 4: what Emmis said. I heard him in a couple of 155 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 4: interviews and one hundred percent agree with his take on 156 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 4: the Hall of Fame. They need to fix it. 157 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: Is I didn't hear what it was saying. 158 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 4: He said he mentioned something about how Woodson belongs in 159 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 4: Bill Belichick belongs in first ballot and Roger Craig's stats 160 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 4: haven't changed in thirty years. Nothing's changed with his stats 161 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 4: and he hardly made the finals. It just I don't know. 162 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 4: I'm just disappointed, Jason Witten. I mean, I know you 163 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 4: you thought you'd be, you wouldn't be first ballot. But 164 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 4: if you look at his receptions, he's fourth in NFL 165 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 4: history and receptions and that's including he's a tight end, 166 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 4: so that's including all wide receivers. In my opinion, he's 167 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 4: one of the most complete tight ends ever to play 168 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 4: the game. Man of the Year, Pro Bowls, All Pros, 169 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 4: class through and through. You know, he too, I think 170 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 4: should be he should have been a first ballot Fall 171 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 4: of Famer. But I don't know. I just think they 172 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 4: need to fix that. 173 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: Yeah Woodson. 174 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 4: I mean, you put woodson stats up against too, up 175 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 4: against the players that are in there. Look, you know 176 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 4: Butler or even John Lynch like and again after he 177 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 4: didn't make it. The class the Woodson shows is just incredible. 178 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 4: He's the classiest person probably in the NFL I've ever 179 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 4: seen or ever, you know, listen to so again, I 180 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 4: feel bad for Darreon. He deserves it. He will get in. 181 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 4: I know it. I just want it sooner than or later. Yeah, 182 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:49,199 Speaker 4: my only Cowboy question to you today is Pickens. What 183 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 4: as far as the franchise tag, obviously, I think that's 184 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 4: obviously in play. Would you consider I would consider the 185 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 4: non exclusive franchise tag. What are your thoughts on that? 186 00:09:59,400 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 4: On that tag? 187 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: The twenty eight twenty eight million, I would I would 188 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: go with the with the highest one, highest one possible. 189 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: I want, I want the most because you get the 190 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: most draft picks for it, and so if you're gonna 191 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: trade him, I'm not thinking that they will trade him, 192 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: but give yourself the most options there for sure. I 193 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: mean I because you know, I think if somebody blows 194 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: you away with the trade, I think you listen to 195 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 1: it would change your draft strategy, but I think you would. 196 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: You would certainly listen to it. But you know, there's 197 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 1: this whole picking situation. I mean, it's gonna overtake the 198 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: entire off season, and it should. I mean, because what 199 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: it goes down to is another narrative of here's the 200 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys with a player that they need to re sign. 201 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: But it's not the same. I mean, this is not 202 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: the same situation. And so when I hear things about well, 203 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: Jerry needs to let the agent do the talking and 204 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: not get involved, I don't agree with that. I mean, 205 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: you got to remember that all of these players that 206 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: have been re signed before have usually been here four years. 207 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 1: In some cases, this is their second contract that they're negotiating. 208 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: So Jack Dak was here nine years, eight nine years. 209 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: The Cowboys know this player, They know Dak, they know CD, 210 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: they know OSA, they know these guys that they're resigning, 211 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: and they really I mean Pickens hasn't even been here 212 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 1: for a full year, and so you know, I think 213 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: that it's it's something where the franchise tag might even 214 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: make sense more than than other years, just because it 215 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: does protect the Cowboys to see what kind of player 216 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: you know he is, and and they're going to argue 217 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: that that he doesn't deserve CD money. He's done it 218 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: for one year. He's this is look at his stats 219 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: for his first four years and look at CD stats. 220 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: It's not the same. And so it's not the same 221 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: on some of these other players, Jefferson Chase of the 222 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: money they're making. Pickings did it for one year, I 223 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: think they he needs to do it again and again 224 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: maybe to warrant that same neighborhood of contracts. But we'll see. 225 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: We'll see how it goes. Davion and Illinois next. 226 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 4: What to do? What to do? 227 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 5: My guy? What do you do? 228 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: What's up? 229 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 7: Man? 230 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 5: What's going on? 231 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 4: Man? 232 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 5: I've been a special time the last few weeks. I 233 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 5: couldn't get on because I'm back at work now, so 234 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 5: I hainte I missed Shire, but I've been listening though, 235 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 5: I've watched replay and stuff. 236 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: All right, Well, what's on your mind? 237 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 4: Well? 238 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 5: Man, you're talking about GP and I'm hoping that. I mean, 239 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 5: I know we're most likely gonna tag. We already knew that, 240 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 5: and it's kind of crazy how people try to report something. 241 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 5: If we was hardcore, we already knew that it was 242 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 5: gonna happen like two months ago. But uh, I was 243 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 5: just like, it ain't no news to us, but you know, 244 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 5: it's all good. H Hopefully you know, put the tag 245 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 5: on him. Uh crazy enough, if he signed it and 246 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 5: he's going and go track it that one year to 247 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 5: prove it, approve it deal, that'd be pretty cool. But 248 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 5: hopefully if we can work out a deal. That'd be 249 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 5: that'd be nice. I know it's always the dis man 250 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 5: up when they do these type of things. And uh, 251 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 5: of course he's gonna try to fight the track it 252 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 5: as much as see you a little bit more right. 253 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 5: And of course it was the agent, you know, that's 254 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 5: what they He's definitely gonna try to do. But I 255 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 5: was one to asks, uh, we're gonna hear from Christian 256 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 5: Parker this week or probably next week or any whispers 257 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 5: anything over press conference. I'm kind of curious to see 258 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 5: what to get him in front of him, get some 259 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 5: Q and A and try to see what you try 260 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 5: to get them Inkland what he's looking to try to do. 261 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's that was in the works. I 262 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: thought a couple of weeks ago, whether change some things 263 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: around here and then combine and and that I'm not 264 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: a combline. Sorry, super Bowl Week happened, and and then 265 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 1: you know we got the combine is coming up in 266 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. I would I would think it 267 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: would there would be something they would want to do, 268 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 1: But you also don't want him to get up there 269 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: and not have answers you know, of what what is next? 270 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: And and and also you know what what other positions 271 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: need to be filled, and who you're thinking and all that. 272 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: So it probably at this point seems like they want 273 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: to really complete the staff and you know, kind of 274 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: get those answers for him. So then if he is, 275 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: you know, going to have a press conference, then he's 276 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: got all He's got everything in front of him. That 277 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: that would be my my take on why we haven't 278 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: seen a press conference yet. 279 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, we've been tracking it because I'm practiced no having 280 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 5: that track. So I think like he down made a 281 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 5: couple more positions, yeah, of getting like I know, we've 282 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 5: got to get the inside linebacker right, coach, and then 283 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 5: uh and uh and a couple more. So hopefully we 284 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 5: can have it done. But then this week i'd be 285 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 5: cool because I really do want to sit down and 286 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 5: for me and him sedan and kind of just you know, 287 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 5: give us to the idea of what he's what he's 288 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 5: looking to try to do, because yeah, anything but it fluce, 289 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 5: you know, but it's all good. Other than that, man, 290 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 5: we got our space tomorrow night, so you know we do. 291 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 5: I'm all on if you want to come on in 292 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 5: and get it, get aft it all right, we'll be there. 293 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: Sounds good Man.

Yeah, so, I mean, I'm all about signing 299 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 8: Pickens long term if we can, and even see these 300 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 8: comments about taking less money to to make sure Pickings 301 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 8: stays aroun anything are great, but with what you're saying 302 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 8: and just some support behind that. 303 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, wait, wait a second, Yeah, CD said what. 304 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 8: I thought I heard something, and I thought they talked 305 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 8: about it yesterday. I'm talking where CD said like, hey, 306 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 8: I'll renegotiate or something to take a little bit less. 307 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: I didn't hear that. I didn't hear what. I did 308 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: not hear that. What I heard of is if he 309 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: gets more, he gets more. You know that he wouldn't 310 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: be worried about him getting a contract more than him. 311 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: I don't. I didn't know the part about negotiating less. 312 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 8: I'll no, I'll try to find it. 313 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 3: No, I'm not. 314 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 8: I don't think less than Pickens. Sorry, like CD would 315 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 8: be willing to take less of his contract. 316 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: Well, he needs to restructure his deal anyways. And that's 317 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: something that that has nothing to do with Pickens or 318 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: any other player. I mean, he's done it. When you can, 319 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,119 Speaker 1: when you sign a big deal and then you continue 320 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: to play well and keep making Pro Bowls and All 321 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: Pros or whatever, and and you're justifying the contract, it's easy, 322 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: especially at his age, it's easy to restructure that keep 323 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: putting money into it because he's worth it. Even if 324 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: he wasn't, then then you'd be like, wait a second, 325 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: we might want to get out from under this. But 326 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: that's not the case, and so Pickens are not. He's 327 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: good to restructure. I thought what he said was is, hey, 328 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: if he makes it more than me, that's fine. That's 329 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: just how the cycle goes. And he'd be fine with that. 330 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: He wants him to get what he deserves. I don't 331 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 1: know about taking less four to make that happen, But 332 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: I give what you're saying. He's being a team player 333 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: and he's saying the right things. 334 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 8: Yeah, and I'll try to find it. But I think 335 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 8: what you're pointing out too is like you look at 336 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 8: a guy like Terren Steel right, like you're saying earlier, 337 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 8: and people are not happy about the money he's making 338 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 8: and the performance right, and I think, like Terren Steele, 339 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 8: Sorry this is a little bit off of what I 340 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 8: was going to talk about, but Steele is he's still 341 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 8: good in the run game, right, and even Guyting is 342 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 8: good in the run game. It's their pass blocking that 343 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 8: they grade out worse at. And the money, I think 344 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 8: is what with Steel specifically that it starts to become 345 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 8: an issue. But I don't know. He's got one more 346 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 8: year and he's making a lot. You can save some 347 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 8: money off of a post or pre June one cut, 348 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,919 Speaker 8: but you know that's a gap then that needs to 349 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 8: be filled, all right. So with Pickens, though, I think 350 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 8: like the franchise tag is great, but he's a second 351 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 8: round pick. We traded a third forum and he played 352 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 8: like a first this year. And I don't know if 353 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 8: a team's gonna be willing to give up high profile 354 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 8: or like high picks to get George Pickens over to them, 355 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 8: because I'm not. I'm not going less than a late 356 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,199 Speaker 8: one or an early two for him. That's what you know, 357 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 8: you got to hold onto talent like that, especially young talent. 358 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 8: The other thing with with Pickens, I'll just say really 359 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 8: quick is you know CD was basically out like kind 360 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 8: of five games this season, right, like, leaves the Bears 361 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 8: early and they go one, two and one in that stretch, 362 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 8: and then leaves Detroit you know early as well, and 363 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 8: that game got lopsided after he was gone. So yeah, 364 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 8: Pickens does great, but without CD, without having both those 365 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 8: threats on the field together at the same time, it's 366 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 8: not the same offense. 367 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, what was the win, I can't Jets? 368 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 8: Yeah, ty Packers and beat The Jets lost to the 369 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,880 Speaker 8: Panthers and the Bears and Detroit, and he had. 370 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: Good moments, you know, and mean the Packers game, uh, 371 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: you know, he carried them back into that I thought, 372 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: you know, but but the the Detroit game, like you know, 373 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: like you mentioned, he was kind of he was kind 374 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: of in space that game. You know, he just wasn't 375 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: He wasn't himself, And I think that's something you kind 376 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: of have to and and that happens with receivers. It's 377 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: not just pick in me. It happened. You can take 378 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: a guy away from things, and so yeah, it's now 379 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: now to be fair. In that Detroit game, I mean, yeah, 380 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: he he wasn't doing a lot, but then all of 381 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: a sudden, Ryan f Illinoy goes goes crazy and CD 382 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: went crazy in the first half. So you know, I 383 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: think I just hope that Pickens and his agent understand 384 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: that this is the best situation that he's been in 385 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: and and you know, you can, yeah, you can make 386 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: the most money ever. Go I mean, go play for 387 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: the Jets, go play for Cleveland. Whatever it is. You 388 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: don't know who your quarterback is going to be, or 389 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: how good it's going to be, or who's on the 390 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: other side or whatever it is. And I think I 391 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: think there's something about the structure here with this offense 392 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 1: and the receivers and Dak and all that too. So hopefully, 393 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: you know, now, hopefully he kind of sees that. And 394 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,879 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he had to take less money, but 395 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 1: but you don't you take him know your. 396 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 8: Value exactly, I mean, and and I'm not saying that 397 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 8: in a bad way. It's just, you know, there's he's 398 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 8: a high value guy like he he deserves a lot 399 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 8: of money. He deserves top ten money. He is definitely 400 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 8: a top ten guy right now with what he put 401 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 8: out on film last year. But it's also just what 402 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 8: do you want to write? I mean, look at you know, 403 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 8: the comments to Marcus Lawrence made like do you want 404 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 8: rings or do you want money? That you know that's 405 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 8: part of it too. 406 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 9: So yeah, all right, thanks. 407 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: Nick, Thank you appreciate it. 408 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 4: Josh. 409 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: Right, let's take a break here on Cowboys storyline.

Chris, what's up, dude? 446 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 9: Hey, how you doing today? 447 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 4: Mister Nate? 448 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: Good? How are you? 449 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 9: I'm doing well? Thank you? Man. Hey, I just had 450 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 9: a question. I was gonna ask which to you, in 451 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 9: your opinion, which Cowboy player that is on the team 452 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 9: and under contract would you think it would be the 453 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 9: most beneficial Let's say, if they really picked their game 454 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 9: up a notch like I was thinking of. I have 455 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 9: one in mind, but I was thinking of people like 456 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:28,719 Speaker 9: Rebel and Bland, you know, Rebel coming off the energy 457 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 9: and Bland getting back to where he is, you know, 458 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 9: where he was. But my guy that I'm going to 459 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 9: pick is guiding, and I think he talked about him 460 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 9: a little bit earlier. But just think about how big 461 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 9: that would be, right if he came in and was 462 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 9: just really solid nice because yeah, exactly. And see, because 463 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 9: I think the other two guys, the tylers, they're going 464 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 9: to be fine in the center. I think he's moving 465 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 9: along and figure out the right tackle. But I'm with 466 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 9: gotten that could make things solid. I just want to 467 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 9: see what you thought about that. 468 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 6: You know. 469 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: Thanks for the call, Chris. 470 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 9: And yeah, oh before I go, sorry, Happy birthday, Irene. 471 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 9: It was her birthday yesterday. 472 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: Okay, one, all right, Happy birthday Irene. Of course, maybe 473 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 1: we'll hear from her. We have a series coming up. 474 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,239 Speaker 1: I think it's in April. We'll do something kind of 475 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: like that where it's I think we called it next 476 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: man Up type thing, and it's not necessarily players that 477 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: are going to start for the first time. It's just 478 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 1: guys that need to to step up, you know, and 479 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: and whether they're starters or not, this is what they 480 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: need from them because you can't go and get all 481 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,479 Speaker 1: pros at every position in Pro Bowlers and stuff like that. 482 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you have to have some guys that really, 483 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: you know, our role players but also solid starters, but 484 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: you want, you know, them to maximize their potential. I 485 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:09,719 Speaker 1: don't know if you can get a better one than 486 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: Tyler Gouyden as far as what they need, what they're 487 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,199 Speaker 1: paying for him to do, and and just just what 488 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: they've expected him to do. So Tyler Goydon probably headlines 489 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: that list. Great story, great guy, great interview, great everything. 490 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: But the Marvin overshown, you know, like it's all good, 491 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's a great story, but he does 492 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: need to take that game to the next level. It's 493 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: time stay healthy and and and be a game wrecker. 494 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: You know, he's he's he's been good at times, he's 495 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: been solid at times. I understand the situation. I'm not 496 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: saying anything bad about how he came back. I mean 497 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 1: it's a great, great story. But do need him to 498 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: stay on the field and be a really good player. 499 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: And the thing is is defensive coordinator. I mean, that's 500 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 1: that's one thing that Christian Parker really needs to figure out. 501 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: What do you do with him? Where do you play him? 502 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: Keep him relatively healthy. But he's also got to be 503 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: in the middle of it, you know. I mean, he's 504 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 1: got a unique body to be a linebacker in the 505 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,719 Speaker 1: middle of the defense for every play. Maybe he's an 506 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: edge player. I mean, he's just a unique type of guy. 507 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: Maybe he's just a full time nickel linebacker, even though 508 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: you know, you play a lot of nickels. So maybe 509 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: you can figure out a way that. But he's got 510 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: to be a guy too that that takes his game 511 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,719 Speaker 1: to another level. But that's a good question, and that's 512 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys like that. There's a lot 513 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 1: of guys you can't pay everybody. They're not all going 514 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 1: to be making ten million a year. You have to 515 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: and that's why your rookies have to hit. You know, 516 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: you have to have guys that are relatively cheap that 517 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: could play at a very high level. Rob in Vegas 518 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: is next. 519 00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 7: Rob. 520 00:26:58,160 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: What's up? 521 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 13: Hey, how's everything good? 522 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 14: I'm good. 523 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 4: You know. 524 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,479 Speaker 13: We're talking about George Pickens, and I love George Pickens. 525 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 13: I love his attitude and I think he's a playmaker. 526 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 13: But my fear with signing him, you know, thirty somethings 527 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:23,679 Speaker 13: million dollars a year, is I could see Jerry saying, 528 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 13: you know, I signed Pickets to this big deal, and 529 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 13: now I can't spend on defense. And let's say say, 530 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 13: as good as Pickets is, he's a luxury, he's not 531 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:41,400 Speaker 13: a necessity. We just watched two teams back to back 532 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 13: Super Bowls. The blueprint is play really good defense, run 533 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 13: the ball, and if all your quarterback has to do 534 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 13: is make plays in a timely matter, and you could win. 535 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 13: And that's what the Cowboys I hope take away from 536 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 13: this because there are teams out there, you know who 537 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 13: they are, that they would side pickings and then still 538 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 13: go and bust the budget in free agency on defense, 539 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 13: and my fear is he won't do that. He'll just 540 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 13: say we'll bringing in a new DC. He's going to 541 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 13: change everything. And I'm sorry, I don't care who the 542 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,439 Speaker 13: DC is. You don't get any more talent on this defense, 543 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 13: You'll be right back where you started. So that's my 544 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 13: only fear. I would rather if they could. I would 545 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 13: love to see them franchise him and then if somebody 546 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 13: wants to trade for him, maybe a team in Las 547 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 13: Vegas to bring in a top notch defender and then 548 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 13: build on that in the draft and even add more 549 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 13: like you said, line back, whatever, and build his defense up. 550 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 13: I think with your CD Lamb and what we have, 551 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 13: if you bring back Williams and the running back, I 552 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 13: think you could compete. We've seen that DK is good enough. 553 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 13: He doesn't need two great wide receivers. We seen him 554 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 13: be successful, which is one and other guy. So that's 555 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 13: my only fear. I would love to have Pickens, but 556 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 13: I'm just a little skeptical of Jerry. I've seen it 557 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 13: too many times where he'd be like, you know, that 558 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 13: was one hundred and fifty million, whatever it was, it's 559 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 13: going to be, and that he just says, I'll get 560 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 13: you know, he brings in these three third tier free 561 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 13: agents and he just says, well, my coaching staff, my 562 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 13: new coaching staff will fix the rest that is like 563 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 13: now that it don't work that way. 564 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, he had some interesting comments that came out 565 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: of out of the Super Bowl week, you know, and 566 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: you know, this is the time of year, this is 567 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 1: what's tough. And thanks for the call up. Awesome stuff 568 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: as always. And I think that's the biggest fear that 569 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: a lot of fans have is that, yeah, you want Pickens, 570 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 1: but you had Pickens last year and it wasn't enough 571 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: on defense. So what are you doing to fix that? 572 00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: And it can't just be a thirty four year old 573 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: defense coordinator that's never called plays. And I think I 574 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: really like the move for Christian Parker, but I don't 575 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,239 Speaker 1: think you can just lean on that and say it's 576 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: going to fix everything. You can't. You can't do that. 577 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 1: But he Jerry had some interesting comments about about changing 578 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: his ways. I mean, we haven't really heard that before. 579 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: Then how he's got to change. If he doesn't change, 580 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: then then this team's not gonna not gonna get better. 581 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 1: This franchise isn't gonna get better. Those are comments that 582 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: you haven't heard before. Again, why this is tough, why 583 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: shows in February and early March are tough, is that 584 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: nothing's nothing's happening. All you're going off is what people say. 585 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: And you're right, Rob, we've seen it, heard it all before. 586 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: All I can say is, I don't think that's happening 587 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: this year. I really don't. I don't think that they're 588 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: they're going to just do some you know, bargain hunting 589 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: type free agents and all that. They'll do some of 590 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: that and and some of it works. I mean, you 591 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: think about some of the guys they've got. Some of 592 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: those guys have been good. But I think that they 593 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: are going to be more aggressive than they've ever been 594 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 1: in the off season. I don't know. I'm not just 595 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: going to say free agency, because we've seen trades. We 596 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: saw it happen some last year. And I think Shoty 597 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: helps with this, I really do. I think Shoty is 598 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: a big part of it too. He's aggressive, and he's 599 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: you know, he's not demanding, but he knows what he 600 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: wants and I think he's got some say and some things, 601 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: and I think it's going to be a different offseason, 602 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: I really do. And it already has been as far 603 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 1: as things we've seen that haven't been. Oh, this is 604 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: why they always do it from a coaching you know, 605 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: situation standpoint of the guys they bring in and how 606 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: much interviews they've done and how quickly they moved and 607 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: all that. So we'll see, I mean, we'll we'll see 608 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: what happens with the Pickens thing and all that. Just 609 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: remember this, and you guys know this, Just remember that 610 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys would love to sign these players, just 611 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: like they would love to Sayah, they would have loved 612 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: to sign de Act. They would. But don't we see 613 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 1: now why the Micah thing didn't happen. I mean, like, 614 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: you know, Jerry's playing the game. Okay, this guy makes 615 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: thirty nine and a half, forty to the bar. They 616 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: didn't get it done. Miles Garrett got forty. Okay, Well, 617 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: it looks like Mica is gonna have to be forty 618 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: and a half or forty one, forty one and a half. 619 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 1: Can't we see why it didn't happen with the Packers 620 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: signed him for forty seven. You would have crucified him 621 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: for that. And so there's a reason why some of 622 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 1: these things aren't happening because of the of the number, 623 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: and you've got to negotiate it to get to the 624 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: right number. No different than Jake Ferguson, Tyler Smith. I mean, 625 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: those guys had contracts that were really high. He got 626 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: to negotiate it and get it down to it. So anyways, 627 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: I believe it's going to be a different offseason. But 628 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: I totally understand if everyone's kind of looking inside ey 629 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: like we'll see, because we will. We will see, and 630 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: we'll also see what our definition is on big moves 631 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: and splashy moves and things like that. But I have 632 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: a feeling, you know, the Cowboys are going to be, 633 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: you know, somewhat active in free agency. But you know, 634 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: here's the thing, and I'll say this before we get 635 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: back to the phone lines, and I know Dylan's gonna 636 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: have some good things to say. Dylan will be next, 637 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 1: but hold in just a second. Is that you know 638 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: you want the Cowboys to go out and be active 639 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: in free agency. And if we say, you know what 640 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 1: they did, they signed the number one free agent out there, 641 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: just so happy to be George Pickens. Does that count 642 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 1: because for most fans it won't. It doesn't count. And 643 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: I've used this analogy all the time. Kids want a 644 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: new toy. They don't want the toy that they already have. 645 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: That's not fun. They'll play with it sometimes, but that's 646 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 1: not fun. I want the new toy. And so the 647 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: Cowboys are probably going to sign. They're gonna keep the 648 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: number one free agent on all of the market and 649 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: every team. But that's not what's going to define what 650 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: this team is and what the fans think of a 651 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 1: good offseason is. It's can you get multiple guys in that? 652 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: But they are gonna go get the number one free agency. 653 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 1: He just happens to be right here, and they spend 654 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 1: a third round pick the year a year ago to 655 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 1: get him. So let's not forget that. But I still 656 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: think they're going to get more players from the outside 657 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: than what we've seen in the past. All Right, Dale 658 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: and Northport, Florida, what's up. 659 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 15: Hey man, you've been practicing your Portuguese. 660 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: I haven't. I have not. I just hope I'm you 661 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 1: know what, I just hope I'm allowed to be on 662 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: the trip. And I mean that that's not tongue in cheek. 663 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: I mean that I hope I'm allowed to go. I 664 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:35,280 Speaker 1: don't want to assume anything. 665 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 3: So yeah, I hope that was a given. 666 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 15: I thought you'd definitely be there. 667 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,799 Speaker 1: If anything's a given, you know, I would like to 668 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: be there. But if it's a regular season game, I 669 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: would hope to be there. But as far as Portuguese, no, no, 670 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: I'm not really. Wasn't it the Eagles that didn't even 671 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 1: leave the hotel last year? I mean, like so, I 672 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: don't know. It's a different places at all, but I 673 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:04,399 Speaker 1: don't know. Well, we'll see what happens, but it's yeah, 674 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: we haven't talked about that yet. Cowboys going to Brazil 675 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: to play. We don't know who they're going to play. 676 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: I think I know who they're going to play, But 677 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: who would you think doing who you think they're going 678 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: to play. 679 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 15: I think I think it's going to be I'm trying 680 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,360 Speaker 15: to look at regions. We talked about this in our 681 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 15: space last week. We spent like thirty minutes talking about 682 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 15: it too, looking at regions and distance and time and 683 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 15: all that. I was thinking of Southern team. I know 684 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 15: the Bucks around the schedule as the home game for 685 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 15: the Cowboys, so I was thinking Needie Campa Bay. But 686 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 15: it could also be a divisional game, but you know, 687 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,280 Speaker 15: that's obviously a longer trip for those guys in the Northeast. 688 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 6: So I don't know. 689 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 15: My guess was the Bucks, But what were your guests. 690 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 1: Can Baltimore that? Yeah, I just think I could just 691 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,479 Speaker 1: see the poster right now with the Lamar and Dak. 692 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: I mean, if you really want to try to promote 693 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 1: the game over there, man, what a couple of great 694 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: superstars that would be. But you're right, you know the flights, 695 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it is when you get to 696 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: that point of the flight. I mean, it's a long. 697 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 4: Time, a couple hours. 698 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:09,359 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, but what they're saying last year Green 699 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: Bay and Philly, Yeah, I don't know. You know, when 700 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 1: you think about the league and what they've done, and 701 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 1: what their attempts to go and make this thing national. 702 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 1: They want to play in every country, they want to 703 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: play on every night in the week, those are the 704 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 1: things that I don't think matter a lot for them. 705 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 15: But I don't know whatever, So no, that's a fair point. Yeah, 706 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 15: I'm not sure the league matters as much as we 707 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:31,840 Speaker 15: maybe think they should. 708 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I would have liked it to be San 709 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: Francisco but it's not going to be if they're going 710 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 1: to Australia. But you know, I truly believe the Rams. 711 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 1: The Rams are cheering for when they when they when 712 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:48,479 Speaker 1: they play and they're playing the forty nine ers in Australia. 713 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,919 Speaker 1: That's perfect for them because they're tired of seeing their 714 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: own stadium full of red. And I know the Cowboys 715 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 1: would you know or don't necessarily disagree with that. So 716 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 1: you know, when when you give up a home game, fine, 717 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: but you know you're giving up a game that's also 718 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: going to be half of the opposing fans. 719 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,839 Speaker 15: So I don't know to the Cowboys too, because they 720 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 15: have obviously the Turkey Day kind of hustled there every year, 721 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 15: those three games. So they're going to have this and 722 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 15: I'm assuming this will be game one of the year 723 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 15: at the opening day game. But then so they got that, 724 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 15: which is fine, it is what it is. But then 725 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,359 Speaker 15: they also have kind of a misfortune in the middle 726 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 15: of the season every year and the Turkey Day three 727 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 15: games and ten days or whatever the heck that is 728 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 15: every year. 729 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:30,840 Speaker 1: Well, they don't have to, but that's the thing that 730 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,439 Speaker 1: the league doesn't have to give you that other Thursday game. 731 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: That's what I don't understand. 732 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:36,439 Speaker 3: They don't have to they keep doing it. 733 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 1: They do, and they didn't last the year before. But 734 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: that's a joke that the Cowboys really they could put 735 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: their foot down on that one and just say we don't. 736 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't have to have the back to 737 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 1: back Thursdays games. You don't have to play four games 738 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: on a Thursday in the whole season. Now, I'm not 739 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 1: so sure that the Brazil game will be the first 740 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: game of the season. You don't think, Wow, I'm not 741 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 1: sure about that. Where's the Australia game gonna go? I 742 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: mean that that's one that could be the first game. 743 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. Again, I don't know what they're gonna do. 744 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: I'm not going to even try to figure that out, all. 745 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 15: Right, Yeah, okay, Okay to my actual point, Chris. 746 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: Do you have a point on this? Chris being I 747 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:21,280 Speaker 1: think I do have a little quick point. 748 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 16: Okay, the last two Brazil games, remember the Green Bay 749 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 16: The Green Bay Philadelphia game was actually. 750 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 1: Two years ago. 751 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,439 Speaker 16: A lot of people don't realize that because Philly opened 752 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 16: the season with US last year. The Brazil game last 753 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 16: year was Kansas City against the Los Angeles Chargers, and 754 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 16: that was September fifth, which the Friday after the Open 755 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 16: that we played in so in comparison, so the two 756 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 16: games in Brazil were played on September sixth and September fifth, 757 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 16: both games were the beginning of the season. 758 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: And then, okay, that's good. 759 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 16: I'm just I'm just saying the last two in a 760 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:57,720 Speaker 16: row has been the beginning of the season. 761 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 1: That's good to know. And then that that definitely could happen. 762 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: But Australia that's also a time, you know, and they 763 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: may they may figure that out too. Maybe they play 764 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 1: two games. 765 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 16: I say, I think I could see them doing in 766 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:14,320 Speaker 16: my just two games Friday, exactly two games because the 767 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 16: time difference is going to be crazy different that Australia. 768 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:18,320 Speaker 15: One's tough. 769 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 4: That a killer for sure. 770 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,359 Speaker 15: So talking about George Dickens, you know, I'm not going 771 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 15: to grade Jerry Jones on a curve just because he 772 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,759 Speaker 15: has or hasn't done things before. Like we all know, 773 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 15: they can sign their an extent or whatever, George Pickens. 774 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 15: Plus they can go playing free agency. It's just a 775 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 15: matter of how they want to rearrange the money to 776 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 15: do that. 777 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 4: You know. 778 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 15: The NFL, I wouldn't be afraid to restructure as many 779 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 15: guys as it makes sense to do because the NFL 780 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 15: five years now, they've had a ten percent year over 781 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,760 Speaker 15: year growth as far as the cap goes, and it's 782 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 15: lootn't to continue. I'm sure the Cowboys have finance guys 783 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 15: that can forecast all that and know what that looks 784 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 15: like down the road. But I mean, we got five 785 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 15: years of it, and so you know, ten million today 786 00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 15: isn't the same as ten million three four years from now, 787 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 15: and and to the cap percentage if that costs you. 788 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 15: So if the Cowboys want to take advantage of this 789 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 15: window attack, do it all. 790 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 4: Man. 791 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 15: Why get rid of one key piece to go try 792 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:09,319 Speaker 15: and to add a key piece on the other side 793 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 15: when you can have all of it? And I'm hoping 794 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 15: what you're saying is playing big in free agency. I 795 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 15: hope that's true, and I hope they don't have to 796 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 15: lose items in order to do that. It just wouldn't 797 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 15: make sense to me when you can have it all, you. 798 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 1: Know, yeah, And you're right now, and the key is 799 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 1: this is where you know you really want to see 800 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys do something and be somewhat aggressive, because yes, 801 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,959 Speaker 1: you could just tag it and tag them and say 802 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 1: this is a placeholder. Cool, but it's a twenty eight 803 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,359 Speaker 1: million dollar placeholder at the time when you you could 804 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: maybe go and do some other things. And so that's 805 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: why you want to try to get ahead of it, 806 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: you know, because if they they could sign him to 807 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: thirty you know this, they could sign him to a 808 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,839 Speaker 1: thirty two million dollars a year and save way more 809 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:53,760 Speaker 1: money than a twenty eight million dollars tag. 810 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 15: And I think that's what the number is going to 811 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,439 Speaker 15: be because you look at t Higgins, he got page 812 00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 15: twenty eight. You add a ten percent year over year multiple. Right, 813 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 15: there's a little tax burden there for the calf acceleration, 814 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,959 Speaker 15: the calf extension, and that you're at thirty two mils. 815 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 15: So I think it is going to be thirty two 816 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 15: mil the dollar figure. I don't think it's gonna get 817 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 15: paid more than CD which is thirty thirty four per year. 818 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 15: But you can backload the hell out of that thing, man, 819 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:14,719 Speaker 15: and then you can restructure it next year at the 820 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,839 Speaker 15: board years you can go as sign yourself with Trey 821 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 15: Henderson or whatever you want, right, and you can do 822 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 15: stuff in free agency and not have to pay that 823 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 15: piper for years down the road. And it's not like 824 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 15: a credit card. It's it's easier than because a credit card, 825 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 15: a crew's interest. It's like the opposite. You're losing, it 826 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 15: costs you less to pay for it down the road 827 00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 15: because you're working with a set figure. It's not like 828 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 15: it's you know, you charge interest. 829 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 6: It's the opposite. 830 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,399 Speaker 15: So I just like, I would like them to do 831 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 15: what they need to do for a change in the 832 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:43,760 Speaker 15: off season. And I give them a lot of credit 833 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 15: for a lot of things, but we all know they 834 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,879 Speaker 15: don't play well in the off season for free agency oftentimes. 835 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 15: I just would like to see a season or two 836 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,600 Speaker 15: where it truly is budget busting all in and just 837 00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 15: see what the hell happened. I mean, you got three 838 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 15: years left with Dak. Let's just see what happens. 839 00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I'm with you. I'm totally with you on that, 840 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,600 Speaker 1: and and it would be it would be so great, 841 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, think about it now with Osa. 842 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: Thanks thanks for the call, Dylan. Is there anything else 843 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 1: that were you good? 844 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 4: No? 845 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 15: No, that's it, brother, I'll feel it good. 846 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 1: Good to hear from you that, you know, last year 847 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: they signed Osa I want to say, I want to 848 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 1: say it was a few days, maybe even a week 849 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 1: before the start of free agency. I thought that was 850 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: kind of different. Man would love to see something like 851 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 1: that with with Pickings, because you you really can be 852 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 1: flexible if they did that, if they did sign him, 853 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 1: even to a big contract, if they signed him, I mean, 854 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 1: you could tag him. You know, the tag window is 855 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:41,319 Speaker 1: February seventeenth, I believe March second, March third, something like that. 856 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 1: For agency doesn't really start till March eleventh. March eleventh 857 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,879 Speaker 1: is the first day of free agency. I think March ninth, 858 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: you could start to tamp legally, you know, legally tamper 859 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 1: uh with and start doing negotiations and stuff like that. 860 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 1: But still you could tag him and then still give 861 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 1: you a couple of weeks or so to to to 862 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: you know, try to figure out what what a market 863 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 1: might be and what a number might be. But you know, 864 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 1: getting getting a deal done like that would would still 865 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,239 Speaker 1: give you some some flexibility. And if they did that, 866 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 1: then I think that you know that it would be 867 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:14,880 Speaker 1: rather clear that they are going to try to be 868 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 1: a little bit more aggressive to to do something. So 869 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 1: I'm i'm I'm excited for it hopefully that you know, 870 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 1: it's you know what I've kind of been hearing and 871 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: gut instincts and stuff like that. It says things are 872 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 1: going to be different, and that's that's kind of what 873 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 1: I hope all right, Erwin in Colorado, you've been holding 874 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 1: a while, Irwin? What's up man? 875 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 13: Hey? Nick? 876 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 1: How's it going good? 877 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:36,959 Speaker 6: You good? 878 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:37,879 Speaker 7: Doing good? 879 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:38,319 Speaker 14: Hey? 880 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 17: Just a couple of things. Uh, So, like we're I 881 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 17: think we're all kind of hoping that Jerry and Steven 882 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 17: are you know, aggressive and free agency and hopefully bring 883 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:52,399 Speaker 17: in a couple of impact defensive players. It's not really 884 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 17: their playing, but hopefully, you know, things change and then 885 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 17: if they do that, then we kind of all know that, 886 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:00,760 Speaker 17: you know, the look they have, that twelve and twenty 887 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 17: pick and hopefully they'll use that on defense and we'll see. 888 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,400 Speaker 4: But and the other thing. 889 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 17: You mentioned earlier in the show, something about Christian Parker 890 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:12,439 Speaker 17: what he would do with overshown. I kind of think 891 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,840 Speaker 17: that few guys when they're coaching against them, and I 892 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 17: don't really remember how many years Parker's been with Philadelphia, 893 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:20,440 Speaker 17: but I know he's seen them a couple of times, 894 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 17: maybe four times or so. He's probably thinking, you know, 895 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 17: you know, I don't know what you think that they 896 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 17: see these players one man and I would really love 897 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,799 Speaker 17: to have this guy, you know, thinking how they would 898 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 17: usually if they had like an overshow on their team. 899 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 17: And I'm kind of wondering that during the interview process, 900 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 17: do they like Jerry and them ask them, how would 901 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 17: you use these players if you would become the coach 902 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 17: and what do you see in the visions of those 903 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:45,440 Speaker 17: types of players? 904 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:48,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think what you do is you talk about, 905 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 1: you know, what do you know about the personnel here, 906 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,880 Speaker 1: what are some what excites you about this job and 907 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 1: this defense and things like that, And that probably allows 908 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,799 Speaker 1: that coach to kind of mention some of those things. 909 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 1: That also lets you know, like how much homework he's done, 910 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 1: things like that. I don't know this, but man, if 911 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 1: I was doing an interview with a guy that you 912 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: didn't really know a lot about and he comes in 913 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,760 Speaker 1: and starts talking about, you know that, what what Revel 914 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 1: could do and and and maybe Shamar James or something 915 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 1: like that, then you're like, Okay, this guy, you know, 916 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 1: he's studying what we've got here, and you know obviously 917 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 1: really wants this job. And really knows, you know, how 918 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:27,760 Speaker 1: to kind of, you know, move some of these pieces 919 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 1: and parts around. So yeah, that's what I would think. 920 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 1: And you know, they they they everyone says that it 921 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 1: was by far the best interview of all the candidates. 922 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:40,600 Speaker 1: By far, Christian Parker was was the best. 923 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 17: Hey, one more thing that real quick, is it true 924 00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 17: that Jerry Jones, who want to say it like this, 925 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 17: he kind of bent the mee to the commissioner to 926 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 17: lose a home game to play in Brazil so he 927 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 17: could potentially get another Super Bowl in Dallas? Is that 928 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 17: kind of how that works? 929 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 1: But that's how that works. I mean that, yeah, that 930 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,839 Speaker 1: that that is how that works. I mean, like you 931 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 1: you don't give up home game. That that's that's what's 932 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: happened over the last few years, is that you have 933 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:09,360 Speaker 1: to give up some a home game to even be 934 00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:12,399 Speaker 1: in in the in the discussion for that, So yeah, 935 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 1: you know, I think for the cap and it works 936 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 1: too when you have nine and versus eight, so you know, 937 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys, you know, he kind of he fought 938 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:22,760 Speaker 1: it long and long enough. But then again, he also 939 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 1: got a spot where it sounds like capacity can be 940 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: over well over one hundred thousand, so you know, maybe 941 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,839 Speaker 1: maybe they'll make up for it in other ways. But yeah, 942 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: I'm sure would like to see a Super Bowl back 943 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: here and maybe not the worst ice storm in the 944 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,719 Speaker 1: history of Texas in the same week. 945 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 8: But you know, hey, thanks for taking my call. 946 00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 1: Yeah sure, all right, good stuff there from Irwin. Let's 947 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:52,359 Speaker 1: go to Jr. And Avondale before we go to break Jr. 948 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 6: Hey, man, what's going on? 949 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:54,959 Speaker 9: How you doing good? 950 00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 1: How are you? 951 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,800 Speaker 6: I'm hanging in there a two hundred and twelve days 952 00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:00,880 Speaker 6: till the first Sunday for football? 953 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 1: Okay, well, what about the first Thursday? 954 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 6: What about I'm just saying that the first Sunday because 955 00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,280 Speaker 6: if it's it's last, if it's a Thursday or Friday, 956 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 6: it's more than it's a Monday. So that's just the 957 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:16,800 Speaker 6: general number. Two and twelve days and we'll watching football again. 958 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 6: So that's a good news. That's a good news. Hey, 959 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 6: Dylon kind of hit everything I wanted to talk about 960 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,480 Speaker 6: about free agency. And I just don't believe the cowboy 961 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 6: if you get enough help with this draft, and I 962 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 6: don't want to see them sitting there at twelve and 963 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 6: the music stop and they don't have a chair to 964 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 6: sitting because all the defensive guys are gone because there's 965 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 6: been a run, so free agency, of course you got 966 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 6: to get gotta get edge help, got to get linebacker 967 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 6: help and cornerback help. And that way it's going to 968 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 6: free him up in to pick better in the draft, 969 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,279 Speaker 6: because I if some of those impact guys aren't there 970 00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 6: at twelve, they got to move back if they can 971 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 6: find somebody to move back with. But I don't want 972 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 6: to see them draft somebody that's they're an overdraft at 973 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:07,719 Speaker 6: the twelve spot. But I just I listened to one 974 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 6: of the other shows and can't who brought it up, 975 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:14,399 Speaker 6: but that Dante Fowler. They spent six million on him 976 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:16,800 Speaker 6: and he was the most A spent on an outside 977 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:21,360 Speaker 6: free agent in ten years. And that's kind of tells 978 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,200 Speaker 6: you kind of how their strategy has been. 979 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:24,720 Speaker 4: And I hope that. 980 00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:26,799 Speaker 6: That changes and they I'm not saying to go out 981 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:28,279 Speaker 6: there and pay a bunch of money for the guy 982 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:29,799 Speaker 6: and send them out he or trade for the guy 983 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,279 Speaker 6: in Vegas, but you got to find some of these 984 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:34,920 Speaker 6: good pass rushers where you go in the draft with 985 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:39,560 Speaker 6: that not being yeah, you know you're not reaching for somebody. 986 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 6: And of course bringing back clowning. Anyway, That's all I 987 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:45,839 Speaker 6: got out of somebody else talk. So have a great 988 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 6: day and go Cowboys. 989 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 1: All right, A lot of stuff there, Yeah, I mean, 990 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 1: you know, that's that's what the Cowboys belief has been. 991 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:59,239 Speaker 1: You know that they believe that this free agency has 992 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:04,560 Speaker 1: been kind of a a place where you overspend, you know. 993 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 1: And and I like Doran Armstrong when he you know, 994 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:09,319 Speaker 1: when he was here, I thought he was a good, 995 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:11,879 Speaker 1: solid player and it was really good, you know, when 996 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,160 Speaker 1: Mike was on the other side and the and Washington 997 00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:19,320 Speaker 1: played him fifteen million a year and he's been solid. 998 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 1: He also could be a cap casualty this year because 999 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:27,799 Speaker 1: just that that that contract. It, I mean, he's he's 1000 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:31,080 Speaker 1: a he's a good, solid player. But that's another example 1001 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 1: to you know, you mentioned six million for Fowler. It 1002 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 1: really wasn't worth it, and that wasn't even a lot 1003 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 1: of money for a guy like that, but but it 1004 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 1: didn't prove to be worth it. And you know, you 1005 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 1: gotta be careful because because even fifteen million, and again 1006 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,760 Speaker 1: I hope people don't think I'm picking on Doran Armstrong. 1007 00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:53,719 Speaker 1: I just use that as an example a lot because 1008 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: I think it's a good one about guys that that 1009 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,239 Speaker 1: you know, let's really dissect why you were making the 1010 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 1: place that you we're making and when you go there, 1011 00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:06,400 Speaker 1: are you going to be an impact player at fifteen million? 1012 00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,759 Speaker 1: And it's just weird how you know, good solid defensive 1013 00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:13,240 Speaker 1: ends that are versatile, that could play some special teams. 1014 00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:16,320 Speaker 1: That's what the going rate is there. And running backs 1015 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 1: you can you can be an all pro running back 1016 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:22,439 Speaker 1: and make that or even less. So it's just kind 1017 00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 1: of you got to be careful on how you spend 1018 00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 1: this stuff. All right, let's go to break.

But stuff. 1064 00:52:56,920 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 19: All right, yeah, man, hey, I'm glad I was able 1065 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 19: to get in today. 1066 00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:01,960 Speaker 14: Man, I'll do this. 1067 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:04,359 Speaker 19: Once a week. Is a little tough, you know. I appreciate, uh, 1068 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 19: you know the fact that a lot of people are 1069 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,719 Speaker 19: still calling in and stuff. But what I'm gonna say 1070 00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,279 Speaker 19: is little. It's it's like you mentioned earlier, man, It's 1071 00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:12,959 Speaker 19: like there's only so much that we could talk about 1072 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,239 Speaker 19: around these times, and even the things that we can 1073 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,120 Speaker 19: talk about are going to be a little speculative. But 1074 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:20,439 Speaker 19: I've been preaching this for a while, you know, whether 1075 00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 19: it be here or in the spaces. But I think 1076 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:26,120 Speaker 19: that Jerry and co Are definitely moving differently. And that's 1077 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 19: and it's you know, not everything worked out perfectly. 1078 00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 9: You know what I mean. 1079 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 19: But they were more aggressive last off season, you know 1080 00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:33,839 Speaker 19: what I mean, bringing in some free agents, you mean, 1081 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 19: and bringing the pickens and stuff. And you know, like 1082 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 19: I said, some of the linebackers didn't work out or whatever, 1083 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,319 Speaker 19: you know what I mean, That cornerback didn't work out. 1084 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:42,880 Speaker 19: But but they were more aggressive in my opinion. You know, 1085 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:44,960 Speaker 19: they were way more aggressive during the trade deadline. You know, 1086 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:48,000 Speaker 19: you got a staple on defense, as Dylan used to say, 1087 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:49,839 Speaker 19: you know, you had no bones on defense. They went 1088 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,000 Speaker 19: out they got they got a bone on defense that 1089 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 19: we could build around. And I keep thinking about you 1090 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:56,960 Speaker 19: know what Jerry said on one O five Through the 1091 00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:59,320 Speaker 19: Fan earlier in the season, he said, I have a 1092 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:02,480 Speaker 19: natural urgent because of my age. My immediate tomorrow's are 1093 00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 19: a big thing to me. And the way he's been talking, 1094 00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 19: the way he's been moving to me. I mean, of course, 1095 00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 19: like guys like Rob and rightfully so have more history 1096 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,359 Speaker 19: to believe what they believe, and that is that you know, 1097 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,799 Speaker 19: there may be a built an excuse already that they're 1098 00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:19,480 Speaker 19: not going to go out and trade for guys or 1099 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,319 Speaker 19: maybe spend more money. There's more history that shows that 1100 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:24,200 Speaker 19: they are more likely to be right than I am. 1101 00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:25,239 Speaker 9: But I'm just. 1102 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:31,799 Speaker 19: Saying my immediate bias, my immediate like instinct right now 1103 00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:34,600 Speaker 19: or feeling, is that they are moving differently, and I 1104 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:36,759 Speaker 19: feel like Shoty has brought a bit more aggression in 1105 00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 19: my opinion, especially during like the coaching hiring process and 1106 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:41,480 Speaker 19: stuff like that. And I think they've even mentioned that, 1107 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:44,520 Speaker 19: which is really awesome because you know, I was told 1108 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 19: he was just a puppet and I was told he 1109 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,440 Speaker 19: was missing some of his male anatomy. But apparently not. 1110 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 4: Man, this guy's come in. 1111 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,080 Speaker 19: He's calling some shots. So that's what's keeping me positive. 1112 00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 19: That's what's keeping me hopeful for you know, the season 1113 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 19: going forward in this offseason, man, so we'll definitely see 1114 00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:00,880 Speaker 19: Also again, happy belated birthday to Irene. Thank you for 1115 00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:03,320 Speaker 19: all that you do. You know you definitely helped the 1116 00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:04,520 Speaker 19: show continue to move as well. 1117 00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 8: Nick, appreciate your thanks. 1118 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:12,440 Speaker 1: He did just say that, didn't he? Uh, all right, 1119 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: good stuff, and yes, happy birthday to Irene. I don't 1120 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 1: think she's probably just partying and stuff like that. She's 1121 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:22,839 Speaker 1: like time for the show today, I'll tell you what though, 1122 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 1: if it was on a different time or a different day, 1123 00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,440 Speaker 1: she would have made sure that to get everyone involved. 1124 00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 1: But uh yeah, again, all we can say is we 1125 00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:38,719 Speaker 1: think or we hope or both that things are going 1126 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 1: to be different this this offseason. And and you know, 1127 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 1: one one big way to do it is to is 1128 00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:49,680 Speaker 1: to uh you know, sign sign pickings. And I don't 1129 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:52,839 Speaker 1: know how risky that that move is. I mean, all 1130 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 1: all moves are, you know. I mean you think about 1131 00:55:55,560 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 1: that that second deal. You know, Trey Yvon Diggs wasn't 1132 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 1: the same player. I mean, what was the reason. Was 1133 00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:05,920 Speaker 1: it the injuries? Was it the money? Was it the 1134 00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 1: money and the injury would whatever it was, he just wasn't. 1135 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:13,960 Speaker 1: He wasn't the same I think though. You know, there 1136 00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,360 Speaker 1: was a time I would say a year and a 1137 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:20,320 Speaker 1: half ago where you would say these picks, I mean, sorry, 1138 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 1: these these contracts that they are signing aren't really working out, 1139 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 1: you know. I mean if you looked at I would 1140 00:56:29,200 --> 00:56:30,680 Speaker 1: say year and a half ago, you would you would 1141 00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:32,839 Speaker 1: go back to the to the previous four or five 1142 00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:37,280 Speaker 1: you'd say, well, we're getting our money worth from steel. 1143 00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:42,840 Speaker 1: Probably not not not really digs No, Donovan Wilson, not really, 1144 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 1: Melie Cooker, no what they paid for Zach Martin again 1145 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:51,080 Speaker 1: maybe you know, but of course that was the end 1146 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:56,759 Speaker 1: of his career here, Dak you could argue, no, I mean, 1147 00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,000 Speaker 1: that's never gonna you know, if you don't make chance 1148 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:02,919 Speaker 1: Games or Super Bowls, you can always argue that, you know, 1149 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:08,720 Speaker 1: it's too much. But and then and then it started 1150 00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:11,440 Speaker 1: to shift, and I think the last few I mean CD, 1151 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:14,160 Speaker 1: I think that that I think that has been a 1152 00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 1: good contract. I think Dax, even at sixty million. I mean, look, 1153 00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 1: that had one of his best years of his career 1154 00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 1: in year ten. So you know, you you look at 1155 00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:28,200 Speaker 1: some of the other guys. I think Tyler Smith still 1156 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:31,600 Speaker 1: had had a good season. Jake Ferguson made the Pro Bowl. 1157 00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like I'm missing someone else. I mean, 1158 00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:39,760 Speaker 1: as far as Osa still up for grabs on that one. 1159 00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:42,480 Speaker 1: But I think my point is, I think you're starting 1160 00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 1: to see a little bit of a turn in some 1161 00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 1: of the new contracts that we've seen guys that you know, 1162 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 1: have played pretty pretty well after the fact, because there 1163 00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:53,720 Speaker 1: was a time when it certainly wasn't looking that way. 1164 00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 1: All right, Rick in Massachusetts. 1165 00:57:55,320 --> 00:58:00,360 Speaker 7: Next Hey, Nick, Hey Rick, how you doing good? 1166 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 1: How are you? 1167 00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:03,680 Speaker 7: I'm all right, it's got much snow. 1168 00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:04,480 Speaker 4: But that's about it. 1169 00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 7: But the way and then the opposite tackle type thing 1170 00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:12,640 Speaker 7: is that I think they just keep it the same 1171 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:14,920 Speaker 7: and just running back what they have and use the 1172 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 7: draft picture just to go with defense and free agency 1173 00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:25,240 Speaker 7: pick up defensive players and stuff like that. But and 1174 00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:30,120 Speaker 7: restructure you know anything, but you know, the picking situations. 1175 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 7: I think they'll use it as a placeholder. Have signed before, 1176 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:38,440 Speaker 7: you know, hopefully before interpregency or the draft or whatever, 1177 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 7: to get it done. 1178 00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 4: And a little with. 1179 00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 6: And Cee. 1180 00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:43,320 Speaker 4: You're just talking. 1181 00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:46,840 Speaker 7: About restructuring as contract, not getting less pay. But he 1182 00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:47,480 Speaker 7: doesn't care. 1183 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:49,480 Speaker 4: Pick its pay and gets more. 1184 00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 7: But as long as he's just restructured, I'm fine. 1185 00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:55,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And I don't know if I even believe that. 1186 00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 1: I mean, it's great to say that, CD, I don't 1187 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:00,280 Speaker 1: know if I even believe that. I mean, like, this 1188 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:02,800 Speaker 1: all sounds good. Sign him early, sign pickens early. But 1189 00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:05,439 Speaker 1: what we don't know is that if they have any 1190 00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 1: conversations at all, the starting point could be forty million 1191 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:11,440 Speaker 1: a year. It could be forty It could because Chase 1192 00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 1: is making something like that so that could be the 1193 00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 1: starting point, which is I think crazy. And so if 1194 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 1: that is the case, then now we know why it's 1195 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:23,760 Speaker 1: going to be a little bit more time to get 1196 00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:28,720 Speaker 1: this thing resolved. But we'll see, we'll see. I don't know. 1197 00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:33,240 Speaker 7: Yeah, just see he was taking down the road. It's like, well, 1198 00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:37,240 Speaker 7: Pickens gets a million more than me when of my turn, 1199 00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:38,800 Speaker 7: I'm going to get more than him when it's my 1200 00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 7: time coming. 1201 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:42,080 Speaker 1: So right right, and that's that's kind of the way 1202 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:46,760 Speaker 1: those things work. But you know, I just Pickens has 1203 00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 1: done it. I'm not saying he's a one year wonder 1204 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 1: because he's been a good player. I mean for Pittsburgh. 1205 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:55,360 Speaker 1: I mean enough where they would Cowboys traded a third 1206 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,240 Speaker 1: round pick for him, you know, hoping that that he 1207 00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:59,479 Speaker 1: would have, you know, hit that stride, which he did. 1208 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:02,880 Speaker 1: But I don't I still don't know if one really 1209 01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 1: good season should make you at the top of the market. 1210 01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. But but then again, you don't you 1211 01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 1: also pay for what the guy's going to do, not 1212 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:15,160 Speaker 1: necessarily what he has done. So that's why this thing 1213 01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:16,400 Speaker 1: is tricky. 1214 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,280 Speaker 7: Okay, thank you having all right. 1215 01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:22,280 Speaker 1: Have it go and let's go to Leicester. Uh Lester 1216 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 1: and Minnesota. 1217 01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:26,480 Speaker 14: What's up? 1218 01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:27,720 Speaker 1: All right? 1219 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:29,480 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1220 01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 4: Man? 1221 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 14: Oh what. 1222 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 5: Dylan? 1223 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 14: Dylan kind of took all the words right out of 1224 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 14: my mouth. 1225 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 1: Dang Dylan, I've always hello, I said, yeah, I mean 1226 01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 1: Dylan did that. Somebody else too, just took all the points. Well, 1227 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:45,600 Speaker 1: it's yeah. 1228 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:50,160 Speaker 14: I mean, you can restructure, and like I said, there's many, many, many, many, 1229 01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 14: many many ways to sign uh the people you need. 1230 01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:59,000 Speaker 14: But but again I want to go back to I 1231 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:02,440 Speaker 14: think we need to go in to free agency and 1232 01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:08,320 Speaker 14: get a linebacker, middle linebacker that can that is experienced, 1233 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 14: that can read, cover and tackle. I mean, that's kind 1234 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,600 Speaker 14: of like the quarterback of your defense. So I think 1235 01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 14: we need that. That's what I would start with first, 1236 01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:24,360 Speaker 14: and then you know, just build a defense from around 1237 01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 14: around that man, and then it's in for us. Pickings 1238 01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 14: is concern. I mean, if it's astronomical amount of money, 1239 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:35,840 Speaker 14: of course not of course, probably not paying fifty million 1240 01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:40,720 Speaker 14: a year or whatever forty million. But if it's within reason, 1241 01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:47,480 Speaker 14: go ahead and sign a man, Pam and restructure and 1242 01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:49,600 Speaker 14: do all the things they're dealing with, Sam. I mean, 1243 01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:52,000 Speaker 14: we don't have to go through that anymore. But like 1244 01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:56,919 Speaker 14: I said's many ways to do things. Go Cowboys, That's all. 1245 01:01:56,960 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 1: I got what you got, Nick, right, Well, been talking 1246 01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,439 Speaker 1: for a while, so I have I feel like I've 1247 01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 1: been throwing a lot of my points out there too. 1248 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: But you know, I think that you've got to remember that, 1249 01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:15,200 Speaker 1: you know, on the offensive side of the ball. Last year, 1250 01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:20,120 Speaker 1: I think those guys had a vision Clayton Adams and 1251 01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:23,040 Speaker 1: and obviously shoddy, but they had a vision of some 1252 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 1: of the players that they wanted to bring in, and 1253 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:28,200 Speaker 1: and and and and how they wanted to utilize certain 1254 01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:30,520 Speaker 1: guys and and that's what you know, I think is 1255 01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:33,680 Speaker 1: going to happen. Obviously it should happen with Christian Parker 1256 01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 1: and these new coaches that you see on defense. And 1257 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:39,880 Speaker 1: you know, there's guys out there that are probably under 1258 01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:43,000 Speaker 1: the radar free agency wise, that you know, if somebody 1259 01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:46,760 Speaker 1: does a list of the top one hundred or whatever, 1260 01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:49,760 Speaker 1: and they might have their eye on number seventy six, 1261 01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 1: whatever that is. I don't even know. I'm just saying 1262 01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:55,680 Speaker 1: that might be somebody that are like this guy. I 1263 01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:57,800 Speaker 1: think we can get them for pretty good, you know, 1264 01:02:57,920 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 1: contract not too expensive. I'd love to play him like this, 1265 01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:04,760 Speaker 1: And and I you know, we've seen it before, and 1266 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:07,520 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I think 1267 01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:09,560 Speaker 1: I think you have to point out that, you know, 1268 01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:12,320 Speaker 1: credit the Cowboys for for getting George Pickens for a 1269 01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:17,160 Speaker 1: third round pick. And then the next paragraph is that 1270 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:21,440 Speaker 1: they also traded for Kyrie Elam, who didn't finish the season. 1271 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:24,640 Speaker 1: They traded for Kenneth Murray, who was the team's leading 1272 01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:27,680 Speaker 1: tackler but also the most criticized human being I think 1273 01:03:27,720 --> 01:03:31,640 Speaker 1: I've ever heard from any fan base, and he just wasn't, 1274 01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:34,200 Speaker 1: you know, a good fit, but he was. That's how 1275 01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,640 Speaker 1: bad it was. He wasn't very good last year and 1276 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:41,080 Speaker 1: was the best option that the coach, that coaching staff 1277 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:44,880 Speaker 1: thought was out there that needed to play, so they 1278 01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:47,880 Speaker 1: they traded for him. They traded for Joe Milton. They 1279 01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:51,000 Speaker 1: signed Dante Fowler. That didn't really work out either. They 1280 01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:54,880 Speaker 1: signed Jack Sanborn that didn't work out either. So they 1281 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:56,919 Speaker 1: brought guys in. Some of them work, some of them don't, 1282 01:03:57,040 --> 01:03:58,960 Speaker 1: you know. I mean two years ago they got they 1283 01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:03,040 Speaker 1: brought Mingo in that still hasn't done anything. So that 1284 01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:06,280 Speaker 1: that's the point. They also signed Jofante Williams and that 1285 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 1: was good. So they're going to make some moves in 1286 01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 1: free agency, and some of them are just not going 1287 01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:14,240 Speaker 1: to work. Some of them will so well, we'll see 1288 01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:17,240 Speaker 1: hopefully you want to hit you know, more hits than missus. 1289 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 1: All Right, well, let's just let's go ahead and and 1290 01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:23,360 Speaker 1: wrap this up. I don't know, the lines are empty, 1291 01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:27,040 Speaker 1: A good time to uh, to just end the show. 1292 01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:29,880 Speaker 1: It's been a good full hour a little bit more 1293 01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:32,720 Speaker 1: than that. But we got our twelve calls. You guys, 1294 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:35,840 Speaker 1: you guys, you know bringing it today. You got a 1295 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:38,080 Speaker 1: lot of good opinions. It sounds like Dylan brought most 1296 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:40,480 Speaker 1: of them. But you got to be able to pivot 1297 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,440 Speaker 1: after that. But good stuff from everyone. We'll do it 1298 01:04:43,480 --> 01:04:46,840 Speaker 1: again next Wednesday.
