Huh Okay, how would you think 27 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: he's supporting the XFL players? Okay, there you go, thirty six. Nah, 28 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: I'm forty two brothers. But thank I never guessed that 29 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: either than I could find with the Cooling the Game, 30 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: I could fine.

I dated young at forty two. What stop it? 33 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: We have? We have breaking cowboys, and obviously it's why 34 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: we bring you guys here. So uh, Tony Pollard franchise 35 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 1: tag not a surprise, nothing to say, Stevie want to 36 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: start of the company. It was it was that was 37 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: laid out there, ten million dollars. So now that we 38 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: know what's happening, I'll start with you. Clarence Thoughts, Well, 39 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 1: I mean the bottom line is they weren't letting Tony 40 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: Pollard go and and I don't know how you can 41 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: come to to get a deal done with Tony Pollard 42 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: just based on your history with Zeke and continued the 43 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: evaluation of running back. No, I don't know where you 44 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: get the media go of the mind. They weren't letting 45 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: Tony Pollar go. My immediately thought was now the focus 46 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 1: truly turns to Zeke's contract. And right now, the Cowboys 47 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: on the kaper the running back positions twenty five million dollars, 48 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: twenty six million dollars right now, that's not standing that 49 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: that won't stand. So right now, you know, Tony Poarl's 50 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: gonna kind of at least ten point one million dollars 51 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 1: on your cap. You know what, you get a deal 52 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: done or not. So you have to address Zeke's deal, 53 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: and that means you have to address Zeke's future. We 54 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: know what Tony Pollard's future is. He will be here, 55 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 1: Will Zeke be here next year? And in what form 56 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: will his contract be if he does? That's what I 57 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: think about. Fair enough right now as it stands to 58 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: some placeholder, it gives the Cowboys until July fourteenth, fifteenth 59 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: to work out a long term deal with Tony Pollard, 60 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: which is just smart. I mean, you do not want 61 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: him to hit the open market coming off of the 62 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: season that he had. And I know some people were saying, oh, 63 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: what about the injury. It's not a soft tissue injury. 64 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: It's a broken fibula and it was a clean break. 65 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: That is not why he had surgery at surgery to 66 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,119 Speaker 1: repair some of the excessorial things that happened. But I mean, 67 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: bone heals, he'll be all right. I don't even think 68 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: that he'll start on public. We'll see all that goes. 69 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: But I'm I'm with Clarence on that. It turns to 70 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott now, and both Stephen Jones and Jerry Jones 71 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: have either strongly hinted or kind of put out there 72 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: that they're open to having that discussion with Ezekiel Elliott. 73 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: Of course they just keep using the word financial, right, 74 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: but we know what that means, because he's set to 75 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: hit the cap for with sixteen seventeen million dollars this 76 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: year that that can't happen, especially now that you fully 77 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: guarantee ten point one to Tony Pollard. And I'm on 78 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: record for weeks and weeks and weeks the saying I 79 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: believe that Zeke would be amicable to taking a pay 80 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: cut because he wants to stay in Dallas, he wants 81 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: to remain tandem with Tony Pollard, and Pollard extends Zeke's 82 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: career much like Zeke would extend Pollard's career. I think 83 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 1: it's just a perfect symbiotic relationship. But it's going to 84 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: have to be a numbers game because as it stands, 85 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 1: Zeke's contract isn't going to go into twenty twenty three 86 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: looking as it looks, as we have this conversation. So 87 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: as long as Zeke and his agent are willing to 88 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: have that conversation and the Cowboys put up a respectable offer, 89 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: I think I think you get done. I think you 90 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: get done. Yeah. I'd say what we've seen up to 91 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: this point is only going to continue. So whether Zeke's 92 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: back or not, that Tony Pollard touches number is going 93 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: to just continue to increase. That's the reason you're doing this, 94 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: and this is an offense that, let's be honest, they 95 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: need playmakers. They couldn't afford or to let Tony Pollard 96 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: possibly walk out the door. They just don't. What are 97 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: you left with? Then? Ceedee Lamb like you don't have 98 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: enough difference makers on offense. You don't have enough home 99 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: run hitters on offense. There's this is a no brainer. 100 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 1: There's no way that you could have let him leave that. 101 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: It's not like it's you know, you have this embarrassment 102 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 1: of riches with playmakers like you need and and and 103 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: you're drafting at twenty six. There's no guarantee that you're 104 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: gonna get some immediate playmaker at twenty six that's gonna 105 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 1: help you right now, so big time. Yeah, Like, so 106 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 1: let's say that you're gonna see people, don't they're not 107 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: gonna explain all that to everybody, right, don't do this 108 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: to me right now. Um, So let's say at twenty 109 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: six they take a tight end, like, there's no guarantee 110 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 1: that that guy makes that type of an impact right 111 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: away anyway, And it could be a pro future Pro 112 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: Bowl tight end, but there's no guarantee that's gonna be 113 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 1: a big time playmaker. Tony Pollard is a big time players. 114 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to cut you off. Yeah you do. And 115 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: I love Zeke, I love Zeke family, I love Dad. 116 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: I mean, but all of this, you know, Um, two 117 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: things I don't know that the Polish touches after you 118 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 1: increase because I think you got a sweet spot with 119 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: what you got with him. Okay, I don't think you 120 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: pay him because you need to increase his touches. I 121 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: think where you where you're using him, how you use him. 122 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: This is what he is. It must be about to 123 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: move and had somebody well, I don't you know? The 124 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: bottom line is this though going back to Zeke, yes, 125 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: he will take a pay cut. We all know that. 126 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: How much do you how much do you cut him? 127 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: How much do you cut him? That was respectable And 128 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: I mean because if we certainly we have to discontinue 129 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: to Foley that the Zick's to start and Tony to 130 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: back up. It will have you know, Tony's gonna be 131 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: the start of them. And Tony is the primary back 132 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: next year at Temper and will being dollars. So this 133 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 1: old Zeke has to go out with the first team 134 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: and all this other stuff. Tony has to go out 135 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: there and as that backup running back. You know what 136 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: number is that? What run number is? It? Meanable if 137 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 1: you want him back at all? Because generally most backup 138 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 1: running backs has to do more than one thing. Reading 139 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: why Tony Pollard worked well up until last year because 140 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: he was a kick return he did other things to 141 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: help you out on special teams. If Zeke is the 142 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: backup running back, you know what else can he do? Well. 143 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: Here's Here's what's interesting when you go back and you 144 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: look at the splits between Pollard and Zeke last season, 145 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: is you could equally say they're both a starter and 146 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: a backup in Dallas because there are times where Tony 147 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: Pollard started and Zeke was healthy, and there are times 148 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: where Ezekil Elliott started and Pollard was healthy. So it's interesting. 149 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: And then I agree one percent, I don't think that 150 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: this contractually is going to force the Cowboys to give 151 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: if they can keep the tanem together. I don't think 152 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: this forces the Cowboys to up Pollard's snaps. I think 153 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: they have found the sweet spot. But then when you 154 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: start using trying to figure out where he placed the 155 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: starter label the backup label, I think they're both both 156 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: of those things on any given week. It just depends 157 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: on the matchup of the defensive front that they're going against. Yeah, 158 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: and again, I guess what I'm saying is I don't 159 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: think the matchup should matter because Tony part of your guy, 160 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: and it should not. You know, it's it's you know, 161 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: Zeke is diminishing. He does not have the juice he does. 162 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: You know, it's not gonna get better than it was 163 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: last year, in the last couple years. It is what 164 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: it is. I mean, he's a great, great blocker, certainly 165 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: strong one the gold line. You're saying he's approaching that 166 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: thirty mark. It's what you're saying. I don't know if 167 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: it's thirty or whatever. Is I mean for running backs 168 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: that tends to be the event. Yeah, yeah, but I 169 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: think he's already approached that. I mean, you know, we 170 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: we see what we got and the thing is that 171 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: you may get one or two games, but over course 172 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 1: of sixteen seventeen games, you know, the last couple of years, 173 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: the injuries, it just it just says taking us toll. 174 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 1: I mean, the man has given us all. He is 175 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: giving blood, wedding tears, been that carries everything, is taking 176 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: a toll on his body. I don't know that a 177 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 1: fresh offseason going making a difference when it comes to 178 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: decenter November next year. Not to look too far ahead, 179 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: but I felt I still think they need a draft 180 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: running back. That's because we can say every year from 181 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: now and you could be looking at not having Zeke. 182 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 1: You're not not having told you're not having Tony. You 183 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: have to have a younger running back in the mix. 184 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 1: And so I'm not saying it has to be a 185 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: first round or second round pick, but at some point 186 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to draft a running back, all right. 187 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: And that's what I was going to because I mean, 188 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: you why why not drafted running back? You know you 189 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,719 Speaker 1: bring tone of power you back and you drafted running back. 190 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm driving it sound like a legit sneeze. 191 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: And the problem with and I like ey Chain. You know, 192 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 1: there are some coutions about the luck. There's a course 193 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: about the attitude he is liked, and so you have 194 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: to have questions about your attitude and their fair question 195 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: by the way, I mean I I have inside nowledge 196 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 1: that there are courses that ain't them about this attitude. 197 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: You know there's there's but you are a big A 198 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: and m guys that would make sense connect the dots. 199 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: You just go to connect the dot. But anyway, um, 200 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 1: but yes, as a player, explosion and all of that. 201 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: But their number running backs in the draft included one 202 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: of a couple of that could be there at twenty 203 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: six won't be there at twenty six. You're talking about 204 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: your guy, Well, they could be got Alabama that I 205 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: might concede too. You're a guy, no way he took. 206 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: He shouldn't say. But what I'm saying is, you know, 207 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: because let's talk about the running backs, because another story 208 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: today is Derek. I mean, your boy king Henry is 209 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 1: on a trading block. Oh you should add him, not 210 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: to trade for him. But okay, we can't. We well, 211 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: we can't, we can't. We can't go in and let's 212 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: let's stay said. What I'm saying is, let's let's let's 213 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: stay right here. Here's my question. Here's my question. Last year, 214 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: just looking at what counted against the cat. Zeke counted 215 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 1: against the cat last year eighteen point three Pollard uh 216 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: one point one minute. So basically nineteen almost twenty million dollars. 217 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: If you're the Cowboys, you're now go in and pay ten. 218 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: What's the number that you feel comfortable if you want 219 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: to bring Zeke back? And you're talking about paying somebody 220 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: else five and you got and you got Malik Davids too, 221 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: who who I thought had some nice moments here, So 222 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: less than five, okay, so five for you? He said 223 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: lesson five, that's three. So so I'm at three, I'm 224 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: thinking three. I'm thinking three, just and I put it 225 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: this way. Yeah, it's a low number. They'll probably say no. 226 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: But at some point in time, you know this is 227 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: a one a position. You have an understanding of how 228 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: to draft. Cowboys have done really well. I mean you 229 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: got a fourth round pick out. It's a sharp choice. 230 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: I mean you know he was a good running back 231 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: for you had Julius Jones who was a good one 232 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: for second. I mean they've shown you to Day Powler's 233 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: fourth round pick, Joe Pros four. They've shown you DeMarco 234 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: Morris the third round. They know how to go find 235 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: these guys. Now, Will McClay and his staff have an 236 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 1: understanding of who can come in and play for the 237 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. Why pay that money? And you just here's three. 238 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: If you don't like it, that's okay, because we can 239 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: go do it and you're gonna have to do it anyway. 240 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: So here's the issue, though, the person that's going to 241 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: be making the found decision on that when he really 242 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: likes a player, obviously, same time, by Jerry Jones. It 243 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: takes things to another level. So there could be everybody 244 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: else in the organizations like the same thing, the three 245 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: A five whatever less than that, and but if Jerry 246 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: is willing to go a little bit higher, it kind 247 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: of brings back to Oldell Beckham thing. It's like everybody 248 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: else in the organization might be like, yeah, we'd like 249 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham, But if Jerry really wants Oldell Beckham, then 250 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: it's going to happen. So it all comes down to 251 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: the way he feels. But look about DeMarco Murray. Look 252 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: at what happened there, but not just that more recently 253 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: than mark the dez Bryant situation. Yeah right, So I 254 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: mean obviously Jerry and did they have a very tight relationship. 255 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: And yet still it was the Knights of the round 256 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 1: table that kind of voteated and said, okay, coach off, yeah, 257 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: that's well, well offensive coordinator of course more than I 258 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 1: read it was. Yeah, but for me and you make 259 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: excellent points. This is the franchise that that historically has 260 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: done well in drafting running backs. But it's also true 261 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: that they have enough examples of what's going wrong when 262 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: you've tried to turn a one B into a one 263 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 1: A with no longer the presence of that previous one A. 264 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: An example being Felix Jones, right, Felix Jones kind of 265 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: struggled as the one A until DeMarco came around Joseph Randall. 266 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: You saw what happened when Joseph Randall got the keys 267 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: to get on the left left quite a bit of 268 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: meat on the bone. But even outside of the off 269 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 1: the field issues, which when speak on that, but on 270 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: the field, Joseph Randall just couldn't necessarily string together enough 271 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 1: impact games to really make it matter. But prior to that, 272 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: it was DeMarco is going into free agency. You leveraged 273 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: Randall against DeMarco, rightfully so. But then when DeMarco left 274 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 1: the free agency, Randall gets tossed the keys and then 275 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: the running back position goes to hell until Zeke saves 276 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: the day in twenty sixteen. So I hear you on that. 277 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 1: I'll say this, Felix. Remember they ask him to gain 278 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of weight, so that effectively took away who 279 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: he was too heavy to be the one. And then 280 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: as far as Randall goes, well you didn't get back 281 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,319 Speaker 1: up in shirts. That's what that's what I mean there was, 282 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: and they did. They got out your boy from Arkansas 283 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: for a thousand yards thousand yards you get that, that's 284 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,959 Speaker 1: right out there, and get out Mars. Look I'm for 285 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: I am okay, I am okay. If they decide to 286 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 1: say we will trust our draft and developed fulk And 287 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: again that's why I was trying to get at. You know, 288 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: they want to decline. If I'm gonna take a running back, 289 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,839 Speaker 1: I will draft him for a second round, run him 290 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: and use it in the problem of his career on 291 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: that rookie deal at twenty six early in the second round. 292 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: Let's do that because you're gonna get him in the primary. 293 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: All the great running backs, whether Zeke Christ mccavern, they 294 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: played their best football what on their rookie deal. So 295 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: here's my problem with that. My problem is is we 296 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: mentioned Malie Davis. He's shown signs. Okay, if for whatever reason, 297 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: you can't get things worked out with Ezekiel Elliott, you 298 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: have Tony Pollard, you have Malie Davis, But then you 299 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: start looking at your other positions, right, So you don't 300 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: want to draft purely based upon need, but need factors 301 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: into it as well. You got to figure out the 302 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: CB two situation opposite Treyvon and even if you move 303 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: Bland out, you still got some things to figure out there. 304 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: At cornerback, you don't know what's going on with late 305 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: In Vanderesh. Are you going to retain him or you're 306 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: not going to retain him. If you don't retain him, 307 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: then you really have a linebacker depth a situation because 308 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: you don't know just yet a bar is gonna be retained. 309 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: If he's not gonna be retained, that's another position. And 310 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: it goes on from there. Your offensive line, Tarrant Steele, 311 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: how long is he here? If he's if he's still 312 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: here in twenty twenty three, can you get the long 313 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: term deal done here? Maybe you can't, Maybe you can't. 314 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: Con Hi McGovern he's going to the free agency, Tyler Biada. 315 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: Every year, you got these cards, right. But my point is, 316 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: as we have this conversation in twenty twenty three, each 317 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: position I've named is more of a pressing matter than 318 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: you already having a two slash three running backs that 319 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: are capable, Because if you get Zeke worked out, then 320 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: you got Zeke Pollard Davis. If you can't get Zeke 321 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: worked out, you got Pollard Davis and whomever you dressed. 322 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: So you give me six six six million, Yeah, I 323 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: can't do it. I can do six because the salary 324 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: cap is going up quite a bit as a matter 325 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: of enough for me, I can do. I guess my 326 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: point is when I was talking about true drafting running back, 327 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: I'm if he's the best player. No, no, to be clear, 328 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: if he's the best player, and I'm not saying take 329 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: a running back over a cornerback and force it because 330 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: you im if he's the best, I'm saying that. And 331 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: I'm also not saying don't draft running back. Listen, I'm 332 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: saying if he's not what I'm saying, If he's the 333 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: best player on the board, I'm just saying that. And 334 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: he's a guy that can help you, especially those guys 335 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: in a prominent career, younger better. They got juice to 336 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: their legs. Because this team is ready to win now, 337 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: and that's what I care about, rather than I have 338 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: to have a first round pick, he has to be 339 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: on my team for ten years. That's ugwash. And I 340 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: would say the way that the draft looks right now, 341 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: if you're batting right now, I would say that the 342 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: best player available at twenty six is probably gonna be 343 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: a corner. And as with all the needs that they 344 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: need on offense, you can't pass that up because you 345 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: can get into the whole everything you want to talk 346 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: about Zeken Pollard when you want to have another young 347 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: corner there. So when you're negotiating your contact contract with 348 00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: Treyvon Diggs, you have some other options where he's not 349 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: just clearly the only guy and he is, like, you 350 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: guys are gonna give me whatever I want. You don't 351 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: have anything else at corner. I mean you TJ Yeah, Yeah, 352 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: I'm just saying like there's there's a good chance that 353 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: you would take Horner. But I mean because you wrote 354 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 1: about it. If you're talking to Will McClay like you 355 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: gotta take the best player available, that's when they have 356 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,479 Speaker 1: drafted their absolute best that you gotta stick with that. 357 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: All right, let's get our first break in here. All 358 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: three of you guys were at the combine. Want to 359 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 1: get your take on something.

We already hit with 406 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: Jona Shoulder, Patrick Walker, and Claire T. Hill about Tony 407 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: Pollard and the ten million dollar franchise tagg He's got 408 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: Cowboys happened till around July fifteenth, try to work out 409 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: a long term deal there and then just they hold 410 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott question. You guys were at the combine in Indianapolis, 411 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: the place I have never been well, had been Indianapolis 412 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: for a Super Bowl. Um, I'm glad I wasn't there. 413 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: It just seemed like it was a lot of people 414 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: and I'm trying to pick out what kind of hotel 415 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: space did he find it? Anyway, and just way to 416 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: eat because that was the Super Bowls A probably weren't 417 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: no place to eat. But Mike McCarthy spoke to the 418 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: media and I saw the sound bite, I should say so. 419 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: I saw the quote about Kellen Moore and I hit 420 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,679 Speaker 1: you up John on text. I just said, did he 421 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: say that on the podium because my producer, Victor Winn's like, 422 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: hey me, can we find this? Like can It's like 423 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: maybe he did on a walk off. He said it 424 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,919 Speaker 1: was at the breakfast. So Mike McCarthy got lit up 425 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 1: by Ryan Clark who said he's throwing Kellen Moore under 426 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: the bus. I never took the comment that Mike said 427 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 1: as I'm throwing Kelly another bus. He praised Kellen. He 428 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 1: said I was where Kellen once was. I wanted to 429 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: score points. Then you become a head coach and coach 430 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: you want to run the ball you want you got 431 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: to look at it bigger. I thought it was Mike 432 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: McCarthy saying, I'm zoom I zoom out as a head 433 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: coach and play caller. Now, Kellen Moore, your this is 434 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: your first you know, this is your your first coordinator team. 435 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: You were trying to score, you zoom in. That's how 436 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,680 Speaker 1: I took it. But two guys were there, Patrick start first. 437 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 1: First of all, Mike McCarthy could not have offered more 438 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: praise about Kellen Moore than he did. Funny thing that 439 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 1: John said before we went on the air, which was 440 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: completely accurate. Mike might have had twenty to twenty five 441 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: lines of, you know, praise for Kellen, but the national 442 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: media took the one or two pieces out and they 443 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: spun it and they got off pissed off about it, 444 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 1: not seeing the bigger picture. And it's funny to me 445 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 1: because funny and said, it's to me because Mike McCarthy 446 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: basically explained all the good things things Kellen Moore did 447 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: and indirectly in saying that, they're not scrapping this playbook, right, 448 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: they're not completely setting Kelly Moore's playbook on fire. They're 449 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: just gonna add some tweaks and some intricacies to it. 450 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: But ultimately it's it's it's a non story because the 451 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 1: reason that Mike changed at play caller was explained and articulated. 452 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: And if he didn't explain and articulate that, then everyone 453 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: would still be wondering, well, why did you If if 454 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: you only have great things to say about him, then 455 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: he should still be in the building. Well, Mike said 456 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: he was great at this, this, this, this, and this, 457 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: this not so much, and this is ultimately why we're 458 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: going in this direction. You want the truth, but you 459 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: can't handle the truth. Right. So Mike, Mike's in a 460 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: situation where you know you want him on that wall, 461 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: you need him on that wall, right, And yeah, he 462 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 1: ordered the cold red, Right, he ordered the cold red. 463 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 1: I had to have an issue with it because the 464 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 1: things he had talked spoken about on the other podcast show, 465 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: I do players as we've moting and grown in about 466 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,199 Speaker 1: it for a long time, John, And I'm not even 467 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: saying I don't even think that he thinks that there's 468 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: a big difference in their philosophies. It's just one of 469 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: the big things that he is Mike's trying to do 470 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: is he thinks it needs to be called a little 471 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 1: bit differently for this particular team, you know, to cut 472 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,880 Speaker 1: down on the turnovers, to give the defense more rest. 473 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: That's what his belief is, as opposed to, like he said, 474 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 1: light up the scoreboard, which he says right before that, 475 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: he says, I've been there before. He's been a young 476 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: offensive what young offensive minded coach come in the league 477 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: doesn't want to lay up the scoreboard. But Mike's basically 478 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:31,479 Speaker 1: what he was trying to say there is I've been 479 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 1: there and done that. I'm at a point in my 480 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: career where I need to help out the defense. Our 481 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 1: defense is very good. We need to do different things. 482 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: Now him saying that I understand that was taken. There's 483 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 1: a lot of people that think that that's a poor 484 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: way to go about it, that your best way to 485 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: run clock on offense is to get first downs by 486 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: any means necessary, not necessarily running the football. Reading between 487 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: the lines from everybody we talked to this week, I 488 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,479 Speaker 1: would say the biggest shift in philosophy probably comes from 489 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 1: two games, and it is in the San Francisco game. 490 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: It's losing the game in jail. Well, I was gonna 491 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: say losing the game at Jacksonville and then losing the 492 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: game to Green Bay. When you have two touchdown leads 493 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: in the second half, you know you need to those 494 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 1: need to be wins. If those are wins, maybe you're 495 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: where Philly was with with that having to you know, 496 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 1: you get a buy, you have home field, you have 497 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 1: to play that Giants team, you get to forty nine 498 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: ers who didn't have a quarterback, and then you're in 499 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Because I'm sorry, like I just don't 500 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: look at it is like this was just some epic 501 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 1: disaster and they just had to go in another direction 502 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: they had there. They moved on from Kellen Moore because 503 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,719 Speaker 1: something had to change for them to feel like they 504 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 1: need to take the next step, and to be honest 505 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: with you, If they don't take the next step, it's 506 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: on Mike McCarthy, So he wants to be the one 507 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 1: that say this is on me. Here's what's even more 508 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: wild about it is, I think people are forgetting that 509 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore himself stood on that podium in that media 510 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: room earlier this season and kind of a self in 511 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: a self burned fashion, said, you know, I want to 512 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: throw the ball, you know, sixty times a game, but 513 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: I realized I can't do that. Okay, So Kellen just 514 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 1: told you. He admitted this season that he's kind of 515 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,719 Speaker 1: fighting against himself. He wants to throw the ball all 516 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: the time, but he's starting to understand the value of 517 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: when to peel back and run the ball. Maybe Mike 518 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 1: McCarthy didn't see enough of that. So when Mike McCarthy 519 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: reiterates it, keep in mind he's just reiterating what Kellen 520 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: has already put out there. I think this is a 521 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 1: classic example of sometime being too honest. Mike didn't have 522 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 1: to say anything. You know Stephen told us, you know, 523 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: we want to go to different philosophy. Jar they talked 524 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 1: about this, Mike being trying to be amenable to the 525 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: media and be honest about everything. He was too open 526 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: and honest. When you're opening honest, people can take things 527 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: and dissect them the way they want. And you know, 528 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: and and and and that's what happened. Man. So so 529 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: you got this whole quote. You know, I love killing. 530 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,239 Speaker 1: I gave killing an opportunity. But so as you know, 531 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: once you say, but we ain't heard nothing you said before, 532 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,919 Speaker 1: how you when you break up? I've given to this 533 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: in life. This is not just Clarency and we all 534 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 1: know that, they say, But all this, I love Kelly 535 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: and I appreciate Kelly is a great off a great 536 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 1: young man. All that's now, let's talk that what you 537 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,160 Speaker 1: really mean? Now, what are you really trying to say? 538 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 1: And that's what people are focusing on. And the problem 539 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: with that is that where it's coming from. As a 540 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: coach who most people remember, got criticized for not running 541 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: the ball in Green Bay, okay, much of it last 542 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: few years in Green Bay, got criticized for throwing the 543 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: ball too much and not running the ball and now 544 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 1: you and that's when you was a head coach. Now 545 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 1: we was yourself off as coordinator. Okay, you was the 546 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: head coach and trying to whole team and a lot 547 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: of criticisms that in Green Bay was he refused to 548 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: run the ball, it was passed at bat. Disagree with 549 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: Are we just talking facts that y'all bring up other facts? 550 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,640 Speaker 1: I'm just telling me a lot of people throwing something 551 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: this time on national media. Hear that, and they go 552 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: back to what we remember about you as a play caller. 553 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 1: The last time you were a play caller. This was 554 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: on your ledger. Yeah, they're not they're not coming beneath 555 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,719 Speaker 1: this surface here. That's swers are saying. They're right here. 556 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: They're going to stay here because this is what that's 557 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 1: what we're talking about. If you want to keep if 558 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: you want to have a TV job and you want 559 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 1: to keep your job, you ain't gonna sit there and 560 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: go up there and be like, hey, did you hear 561 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 1: what Mike McCarthy said about cal Moore? A lot of 562 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: good things. He really liked him. He just didn't work out. Yeah. So, 563 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: and the thing about it is, you know it comes 564 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: with the dinner. You're the Cowboys coach for sure, and 565 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 1: so yes, mccart's not happy and Dad's not happy, and 566 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: everybody's that bad because he's getting killed because of what 567 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 1: he said about killing this part but not they don't 568 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 1: bring up this parts. We are if you're a big 569 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,439 Speaker 1: we're a big boys here. This is not the first 570 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 1: time that the Cowboys, anything that said about the Cowboys 571 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: are gonna take on a new life of its own nationally. 572 00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: So let me spit this on this standpoint, and where 573 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: kind of the biggest speaker's view of it all is 574 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy's liked calling plays, and he's told us many 575 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: times we've gone to press conference. Is he liked it. 576 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: We don't know if this is going to be his 577 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: last year. So if you're going to finally take it 578 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: over and do what you want it like if if 579 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: I go down, I'm gonna put my boots way doing 580 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: it my way, I'm coming out shooting. I ain't gonna 581 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: ask Kelling Moore, hey man, shoot it that. Now I'm 582 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: gonna tell The crazy part for me is that, as 583 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 1: John said that he's twelve twelve and five twelve past 584 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: two years, done something no coach has done since the 585 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: nineties with twelve wins and back to Switzer done, you know, 586 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: back and back playoff wins. But yet we all accepted 587 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: understand this man's job is on the line in twenty 588 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: twenty three. He ain't done enough to keep a job 589 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: past twenty twenty three. But you know you worked for 590 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: the verse of George, so that's all part of this too. 591 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: We all readily understanding and no one even blinking the 592 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: fact that this man has won as Stevens a more 593 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 1: game than Indy's team in the NFL Saver Kansas City 594 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: the past two seasons. But yet his job is on 595 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: the line, and we're not blinking on because we ain't 596 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: seen a contracting sens you know, some protect Steve so 597 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: so so so you know, it would frustrates me even 598 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: as we do this conversation because there's so much, so 599 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: many layers factors, and they're just understanding talking to Steven 600 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: that and those guys that the offense has, you know, 601 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 1: reached the ceiling under Kelly More. It's gone as far 602 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: as it can go. And I know what you're gonna say, 603 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: because you're gonna jump right back down my throat. I 604 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: believe that this year they had less weapons on offense 605 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: they did. Oh yeah, I wouldn't disagree with that, Okay. 606 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 1: I just the only thing I disagree with you with 607 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: sometimes is you make it sound like it's just the 608 00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: they had the worst weapons. My point is you took 609 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,479 Speaker 1: a step back with less weapons on offense, and now 610 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: you're saying we've gone as far as we can go 611 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: with this. You know that that's kind of you know, like, 612 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: how do you give your quarterback less weapons? That and 613 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: the thing we go back to that championship game or 614 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: the playoff game. We can already acknowledge that the Cowboys 615 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: that two players teeth will be scared of and they 616 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:24,959 Speaker 1: lost one on that field. Give me more weapons, did 617 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: tell me we've gone as far as to go with 618 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: this office, give me more webbers and tell me that, 619 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: you know whatever, whether it's Dak, whether it's Keller, would 620 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: give me give me decent weapons. Which why this offseason 621 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: we need juice. We need to make a big move. 622 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: We need juice on offense. Who didn't know that I've 623 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: been saying that said last year, like our guys, they've 624 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: been seen and maybe since last year, we like our guys, 625 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: That's what we were told Paul training kid. We like 626 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: our guys who didn't know that. Give me so if 627 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: the offense has reached his peak, I would love it. 628 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 1: We just speak with the best weapons on the field. 629 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Let's take another Let's take our 630 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: last break here.

I'm knew, he scrugs, So, gentlemen, 674 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: I'm going to make UGM for the day, or at 675 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: least the last person who talks to Jerry Jones before 676 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: he makes his decision. Who's the one Cowboy free agent? 677 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: Did you say, I can't let that person go take 678 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: away Tony Park because he's got the franchise tax, so 679 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: you know he'll at least be here one more year. John. Yeah, 680 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that this is the best player of 681 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 1: the group, but with all things considered, for me, it 682 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: would be Laton Vanderesh when I say, all things considered, 683 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: it's what I think that he can get on the 684 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: open market. Medically. Obviously he's had some issues. Uh. The 685 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 1: other thing I factor in is the way the team 686 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: looked when he wasn't on the field. And then the 687 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 1: other part is just what's behind him on the depth chart. 688 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 1: So there's some other positions that maybe you might say, 689 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 1: like you could argue maybe like a Donovan Wilson. I 690 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 1: looked at that, and I'm like, they got some some 691 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: solid safeties on this team right now, so I can 692 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 1: maybe maybe, you know, move some pieces around there, maybe 693 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 1: draft one later. I don't know what they're doing at 694 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 1: linebacker if they don't resign Laton Vanderesh clear, I don't. 695 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 1: Besides Tony Pollard must yeah, he said at the beginning 696 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 1: of the segment, I was, what were you doing? Somebody 697 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 1: was agent was texting me, Oh sure, I was. It was, UM, 698 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,399 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a must on as the guys. 699 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I like Donovan Wilson, you know, 700 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 1: but you got two safeties. You're not gonna tag it 701 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: in fourteen million. You know, got some young guys. Uh, 702 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: coaching staff definitely wants down Wilson, you know, but the 703 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 1: question is particularly you you clients here, You're you're talking 704 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: to Jerry. You're telling him, this is the guy we 705 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,399 Speaker 1: can't let out of the building. Well, Jerry's already moved 706 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: on because he doesn't have the conviction at all even 707 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: saw this player at this point. So it's name. I mean, 708 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: I don't there's nobody out. You can't move by to boom. 709 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: That's okay, but you get I'm going Donald, I need 710 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: Donafan Wilson back in my uh, in my secondary who 711 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 1: can also drop down and be that you know, that 712 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 1: blitch package guy who can just really bully a quarterback. 713 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 1: He takes the ball away, he gets the job done. 714 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: And I see, I understand what you're saying. John, as 715 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:43,720 Speaker 1: far as okay, well you got this safety and that safety. 716 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 1: Yes you have the league hooker, you got jay Ron Curse. 717 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 1: But these are contract seasons for both of them. You'd 718 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: like to believe they're here in twenty four, but you 719 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,359 Speaker 1: just don't know. Okay, So those are two guys, they're 720 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 1: coming up for new negotiations. You look behind them and 721 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 1: you say, okay, well, what's the death situation? Okay? In camp, 722 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,760 Speaker 1: you like a guy like Marquis Bell. However, he couldn't 723 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 1: earn his way onto the field this season. That's worrisome 724 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,359 Speaker 1: to me. That's not saying that I'm out on Bill, 725 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 1: because I'm not out on him, but it's enough to say. 726 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: And I don't know if my depth is a solid 727 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,320 Speaker 1: yet as I would like it to be. So for me, 728 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 1: Donovan Wilson, that's who you got to bring back, especially 729 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 1: considering jay Ron Curse for as much of a soldier 730 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: as he is and battling through some injuries. He had 731 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: several this year, so going into twenty three, which is 732 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: a contract gift for him, can he stay healthy? Hopefully so, 733 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 1: but you don't know yet. Too many I don't knows 734 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: all over the place on defense, especially a lineback. But 735 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: I think if you take Donald out, we know what 736 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: vander esh looks like or what the defense looks like 737 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: with lve on and out. You didn't really see it 738 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: without Donovan in twenty three because he was so durable 739 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 1: despite what he was able to do, despite those high 740 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,320 Speaker 1: impact plays that he's making, and you hope that you 741 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 1: don't have to see it without Donald. So bring me 742 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 1: the problem with Laden and we He's important to the 743 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 1: defense and getting lined up and all of those stuff. 744 00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:00,359 Speaker 1: Is the hell, you can't trust the health and they're 745 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 1: not giving multi your deal and I know, you know 746 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,919 Speaker 1: you there's his agent was upset after, you know, coming 747 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 1: in and negotiating on the bus because the Cowboys not 748 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: budget on this one reason why last year you know 749 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 1: he had he actually had a multi ye deal with 750 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh last year and they pulled it in last minute 751 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: when they sat a mile jet and that's why he 752 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,919 Speaker 1: came back to the Cowboys on the one year deal. 753 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 1: And you know it's gonna be the same way this year. 754 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,799 Speaker 1: You know, he wants to stay here. They wanted to stay. 755 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: You the Cowboys and not Buzzet don't know multi year 756 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: deal for Laton because they don't know what his future 757 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 1: is year the year. It's just crazy because you know, 758 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: Jabril Cox just gets forgotten about because he didn't make 759 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: much of an impact. Jabril Cox last year had the 760 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup yere where you just kind of were expecting 761 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: more from him because he was coming off the knee injury. 762 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 1: Just never met so and it certainly looks like demon 763 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,959 Speaker 1: Clark's gonna be good football players, no question. But there's 764 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 1: just a lot of questions at linebacker, and I'm not 765 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,439 Speaker 1: really big on drafting linebackers that are true linebackers very high. 766 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: So maybe, hey, they found Damien Wilson, they found Anthony 767 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 1: Hitchin's fourth round guys like that, maybe they can find 768 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: another one. But I just don't like their linebacker. I 769 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 1: have Laton and and that's all fair and and I'm 770 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: with you in that late vander Esch has a ton 771 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,959 Speaker 1: of value in my eyes. And I would I would 772 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: pound the table for Laton, but I wouldn't pound it 773 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: as hard as I would pound it for Donald. That's 774 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,800 Speaker 1: over one hundred combined tackles, five sacks, uh and and 775 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: this is his second version of a breakout season, because 776 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 1: he had a breakout season in year two, had a 777 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: little bit of injury, and year three, year four he 778 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 1: balls out. Donald is the now give me a number market, right, 779 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: because you got just made you got some of those 780 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: other guys, so you're not doing fourteen, I'm not doing. 781 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: So then what if I could get you pay in 782 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: Zeke's six? Right? Sounds something okay, So let's slide the 783 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 1: scale a little bit. If I can get Donald for 784 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: ten or eleven I'm I'm I'm in for that a year. 785 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 1: I'd average him for yeah, four to forty four, forty 786 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: four at forty it's gonna be your highest pace safety. 787 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: What you're saying, Donald, Yeah, I don't know. Because the 788 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 1: market it's weird. The market is weird, and time on 789 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: this team, he's gonna be paid high nos other two. 790 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 1: Oh yeah absolutely, But for a franchise, it never pays 791 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 1: for safe until that drafted. Because no, I said that, 792 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: I say that, I say that. Here's here's the little 793 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: bit of longer form explanation. It was a team that 794 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: perennially didn't value the safety position and in a high 795 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: regard until dan Quinn came. And then you started seeing 796 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 1: Malik Hooker, Jay Ron Curse and they value that mean 797 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: they use him when they use them interchangeably, which actually 798 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:36,880 Speaker 1: brings down that value. Guarantee you, dan Quinn, the engineer 799 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 1: of the Legion of Boom who had cam and an earl, 800 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 1: absolutely value. You're missing my point though. When I say value, 801 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: I'm talking about financially. You're you're talking about how to 802 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: use them. Yes, it's important to his defense. We're talking 803 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 1: about money. Okay, Okay, I'm telling you that if it's 804 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,359 Speaker 1: important to the defensive coordinator, then the defensive coordinator's voice 805 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: want to be. But he already has two under contract, right, 806 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 1: but they've done that here though, Okay, So then the 807 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,279 Speaker 1: question would be how much do they value dan Quinn 808 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 1: and his opinion, because I believe that they value both 809 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 1: of those things very highly, and if and if true, 810 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,360 Speaker 1: and if and if so, then his and if so 811 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: then his opinion. I'll put it this way, and dan 812 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: Quinn dan Quinn having a conversation about the probably paying 813 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 1: a safety and free on the free market. Right, it's 814 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: probably more valuable and meaningful them to the Cowboys than 815 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: no shade. But to a Rod Marinelli trying to have 816 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: driving dan Quinn around Highland Park saying we will show 817 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: me a safety house. She liked. You donna get to 818 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 1: do that around but we like it. Just going back 819 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: to last year, the linebacker from from Seattle, dan Quinn 820 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: wanted him. He was he was priced out of what 821 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:55,320 Speaker 1: the cowboy wanted to pay. Du want who he wants. 822 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 1: If he's gonna get more on the free markets, they're 823 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 1: not going to tag him and he's gonna be up forbid. 824 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: He's gonna be prised out of what the Cowboys are 825 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: gonna pay because they don't value financially paying. You will 826 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 1: say this, and that's what I'm saying. We can all 827 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 1: agree on this. There are two things that work here, 828 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 1: because free agency is always a two way street, which 829 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,959 Speaker 1: is why I get it furious when people on Twitter 830 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 1: and this the social sphere act as if it's a 831 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: one way street, like if a guy goes somewhere, it's 832 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 1: because all the team didn't offer enough money. These negotiations 833 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: are super complex. We all know that. So if it's 834 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: a situation where dan Quinn values the safety position e g. 835 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 1: Donovan Willson very highly and the Cowboys are amenable to 836 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 1: hearing him out on that, and Donovan is amenable to 837 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: maybe lowering his ass to stay with dan Quinn, a 838 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 1: player's coach, a guy who has helped him reaching elite level, 839 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 1: then I think it could get done. But we'll see, obviously, 840 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: because I'm not speaking for don more than i'm speaking James. 841 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,879 Speaker 1: I'm not lowering my money. I'm one of the big 842 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: my value as a free agent. I don't care whoever. 843 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:03,839 Speaker 1: I am one of the biggest player advocates you will 844 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 1: ever meet. I want every player to get every bag, 845 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 1: to squeeze every penny out of this league as possible. 846 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:12,760 Speaker 1: If that's here in Dallas, wonderful, Fast to be someone else, wonderful. 847 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 1: Go get your bag, young man, get your generational wealth. 848 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: That said, in the aspect of just talking about the 849 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,359 Speaker 1: science of the of the situation, there is a possibility 850 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 1: that any player, Donovan or anyone around the league could 851 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 1: be amenable to taking a little bit less to stay 852 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 1: with their respective team. That's a thing, is it not? Well, 853 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 1: I evolve their eighteen to nineteen on restrict of free agents. 854 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 1: I don't see a single person on the list that 855 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:37,800 Speaker 1: won't be back. If they're not wanting to do that, 856 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 1: they're not going to be outbidding anybody or anybody. I 857 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: agree with that. I'm simply saying that's a thing like 858 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 1: it happen. Yes, it is a thing. But my point 859 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 1: is where we're going back to value. Okay, I'm saying 860 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,840 Speaker 1: the Cowboys are not going to value him more than 861 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 1: someone else possible, They're gonna pay him that value. We're 862 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: talking about the Cowboys value of him. Did you hear? 863 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 1: Did you hear? Did you hear how Mike talked about 864 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 1: Donald and Okay, hey, what player are you at? Brett Maher, 865 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:13,320 Speaker 1: I'm I'm really I'm really with Clarence. Yeah, there's not 866 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 1: a player that I look at say well, we have 867 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 1: to have that that that player back and and and 868 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna pay a free agent number to keep I 869 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,880 Speaker 1: really don't. Yeah, I'm just sitting here. I am very 870 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 1: interested to see what they do at linebacker if they 871 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: don't bring back Late though, because yes, last year, at 872 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 1: that time, we didn't know that they would go sign 873 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,399 Speaker 1: Anthony Barr. There are obviously moves that can be made, 874 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,320 Speaker 1: but something has to happen, because I don't think you 875 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:39,839 Speaker 1: can just know he's not he's ill. We'll see who's 876 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 1: free you on March fIF I just don't think you 877 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: can just roll into the next season going, oh, we 878 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 1: got Jabril Cox to Moan Clark, we'll be fine. We'll 879 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: find somebody in the mid to late rounds, like, you're 880 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 1: gonna have to make some type of investment at the position. 881 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 1: And and this this is the beauty of letting it 882 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:57,440 Speaker 1: play out to say, hey, look these guys, you know, 883 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 1: let's see what else we can do, and maybe you 884 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 1: end up with a Malik Hooker of a linebacker. That 885 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 1: that kind of player, a jay Ron Curson linebacker maybe. 886 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 1: And this is to me where you look at your 887 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,320 Speaker 1: coaches and you look at Dan Quinn, how can you 888 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,279 Speaker 1: get the maximum value out of this particular player like 889 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,279 Speaker 1: you did with the safety room. How can you go 890 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: find those guys? We hear Mike and you guys were 891 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 1: at the combine and he said it a lot. They 892 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,399 Speaker 1: do believe in draft and development. So I think that's 893 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 1: where they go back to their coaches and say, hey, guys, 894 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: what can you find over here? Guess what? We were 895 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 1: not shopping at ems today. Guys were not shopping at 896 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: ems going to hit a belt. I'm not Bill. I 897 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 1: love Bell and round with Bell. I loved I got 898 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,319 Speaker 1: a belt card Son.

I like Bell, Clarence Clarence Clarence 901 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:55,120 Speaker 1: Clarence as an NI NI with Ross, you are always 902 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,359 Speaker 1: bringing up well whever you feel comfortable. Do you walk 903 00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,239 Speaker 1: into Ross and there's a cardboard cut out of drill 904 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 1: this waving.
