Speaker 3: So here we go.

27
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 6: they'll play the Rams in Los Angeles. Today, though, we're

28
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 6: gonna get into some camp observations, some things you guys

29
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 6: have seen from the last couple days of practices. We'll

30
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 6: also get to a couple of storylines we want to

31
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 6: hit talk about some injured guys. Let's start first with

32
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 6: some injury updates. We've got a few names of guys

33
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 6: that have missed practice. I'm just interested just to hear

34
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 6: a little bit from you guys on what you've heard

35
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 6: about these guys and kind of where they are. Let's

36
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 6: start first with Luke school Maker, who popped up with

37
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 6: an injury last weekend.

38
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, injured is growing and that's it's unfortunately, just another

39
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 3: injury in the early career of Luke schoon Maker. If

40
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 3: you remember when you first got in the building last year,

41
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 3: was dealing with a planner fasciitis issue from his time

42
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 3: with the University of Michigan. Missed a little bit of

43
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 3: time at camp as he rehabbed that and then got

44
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 3: back on the field, and then this offseason it's been

45
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 3: a hamstring, it's been a shoulder, it's been now a groin.

46
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 3: So for Luke Schoonmaker to really find a role in

47
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 3: that tight end room that really suits him. As a

48
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 3: compliment to Jake Ferguson, He's just gonna have to be

49
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 3: able to stay on the field. The best ability is availability,

50
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 3: and unfortunately he's kind of fallen victims to that at times.

51
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it, And you mentioned the unfortunate part of it.

52
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 2: This is a deep tight end room. We've talked about

53
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 2: that a bunch, and so the fact that he's standing

54
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: over there by us does him no good. They have

55
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 2: got some really difficult decisions to make on this, this

56
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: tight end group. And you know, yeah, he's the second

57
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 2: round pick, but there has to be in that personnel

58
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: trailer when they had their meetings and they talk with

59
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 2: Britt Brown and Jim Mauer about injuries, and it's Luke

60
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 2: Schoonmaker's name on there, you know, Mike McCarthy's he's having

61
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 2: some competitive practices out here to try and figure out

62
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 2: his team. In the fact that Luke Schoonmaker is not

63
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 2: part of this, I think it not only hurts him,

64
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 2: but I think it hurts the team because they're trying

65
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 2: to figure out about these tight ends and can these

66
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: guys be better point of attack blockers in this running game.

67
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 2: Missing that time is bad for everybody involved.

68
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 7: Well, what's unfortunate is that the times that he is

69
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 7: healthy and the times that he has been on the field,

70
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 7: most often than not, he's doing something really good. Like

71
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 7: I've seen him make plays at times where it's like, Okay,

72
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 7: that was good. Obviously not perfect every single time, but

73
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 7: he has those moments where you just wish he could

74
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 7: have a long stretch where he is healthy so he

75
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 7: can't reach his full potential. But he hasn't happened yet.

76
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 7: And at this rate, I mean, he might be one

77
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 7: of those type of players that he's constantly dealing with

78
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 7: something which we know that's never a good thing.

79
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 2: Was that a little bit and I'm thinking about was

80
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: Dalton Schultz a little bit like that? I just remember

81
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: when Dalton Schultz started his career, there always was kind

82
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 2: of something that you know that we were kind of like, oh, well,

83
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 2: Dalton Schultz could do this. If Dalton I mean, I

84
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 2: hope he has the career of Dalton Schultz or that,

85
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 2: but it took him maybe a year or two years,

86
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 2: three years to kind of but they really they don't

87
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 2: have time to but you know, to have it. But

88
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 2: if if it's something where he's tight ends or you know,

89
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 2: they've come in they haven't had really good health and

90
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, boom, something clicks. Then all

91
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 2: of a sudden, it's like, oh, I see he's the

92
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 2: availability part. Oh look and bar he's making more plays

93
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 2: out here. So yeah, you're right, and I'm the I'm

94
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 2: like the guy that's driving the Luke's schoon Maker band

95
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 2: club wagon thing because coming out of Michigan, I thought

96
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 2: he was a hell of a football player, you know,

97
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 2: and they were. Michigan was physical running the football and

98
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 2: Luke schoon Maker was a big part of that. We

99
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 2: just unfortunately haven't seen that here.

100
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, talking about a rookie who was having a good

101
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 6: camp that then found himself out of practice. Tyler geet

102
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 6: and tell him what's going on with him?

103
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, dealing with an illness. He missed the weekend practices,

104
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 3: so that was Friday and Saturday. Would have to maybe

105
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 3: expect to get him back on the field today. But nevertheless,

106
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 3: just dealing with an illness. It's allowed Chu Maydoga and

107
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,160
Speaker 3: Awesome Richards to pick up some reps now. Cheu Maydoga

108
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 3: has also also been battling with an injury that's kind

109
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 3: of kept him off and then back in.

110
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 2: He looks like that seems to be a little bit

111
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 2: of a problem.

112
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it looks like a limited type issue. And if

113
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 3: you remember at camp last year he dealt with an

114
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 3: ankle issue that kind of kept him in and out

115
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 3: of camp as well. So it's been really valuable reps

116
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 3: for Awesome Richards, the second year, fifth round pick out

117
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 3: of North Carolina, And from what I can tell, he's

118
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 3: he's done well with those opportunities.

119
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, Derek, you're gonna ask us all camp's observations.

120
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 2: Awesome Richards had an awesome day. Let's go the other day,

121
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 2: and you know, and he was thrown into the situation

122
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 2: of playing the left tackle spot. It also helps play

123
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: next to Tyler Smith. Tyler Smith can make you, you know,

124
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 2: make you look pretty good over there too. But I'll

125
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 2: say this, Awesome Richards, it was one of these guys

126
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 2: where you're kind of going into amp thinking about, Okay,

127
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 2: swing tackles, who are going to be the guys that

128
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 2: are the swing tackles, maybe playing some guard. Awesome Richards

129
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 2: has done that, but at left tackle. In that in

130
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 2: that practice, the blue white practice, I'll tell you what.

131
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 2: There was some oppressive work with him, you know, and

132
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 2: him and Kneelan going after each other, two guys. Kneelan's

133
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 2: trying to not find his way. I think he's gone

134
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 2: a good path and he was given Awesome Richards all

135
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 2: he can handle. But Awesome Richards was giving it right

136
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 2: back to him. So it was good work from those

137
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 2: two guys.

138
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 6: That's great, all right, Ryan Illinois? Where are we with him?

139
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 2: Man? Practice squad? That's where we're out right now, you know.

140
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: And and it's unfortunate.

141
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 6: He's at a position that's pretty deep right now.

142
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 2: He's at a position. And the thing about it is,

143
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 2: you look at these cowboy wide receivers every day there's

144
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 2: somebody that makes a play. It's not just one or

145
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 2: two guys. It is they're finding, you know, with Durden

146
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 2: and guys like that. You know that, you know, I

147
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 2: was talking it was funny. I was talking with with

148
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 2: Todd Archer this morning and he goes, what do you

149
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,239
Speaker 2: know about Burnett? I said, number six? Because yeah, guy's

150
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 2: making place. So that that's the issue that you run

151
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 2: into when you're a young guy and you're you're a

152
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 2: rookie and you're as good looking of a physical as

153
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 2: a player as he looks. You're wanting to see him

154
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 2: out there catching balls from you know, from Rush and

155
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 2: Lance and even Dak if he gets the opportunity. But

156
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 2: standing over there by us kind of looks like a

157
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 2: practice squad guy right now because you're not being a

158
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 2: part of what's going on on this field right behind us.

159
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, Ryan Flinoy dealing with an e issue that's been

160
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 3: keeping him out since before the pads even came on,

161
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 3: so he hasn't had an opportunity to even put the

162
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 3: pads on with the team yet. You'd have to hope

163
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 3: that he's able to get back on the field this

164
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 3: week in time for the preseason games because, yeah, Brian,

165
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 3: you mentioned these receivers that are really starting to emerge

166
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 3: here at camp. You also want to mention Tyring, Billy Johnson,

167
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 3: and Chilen Cropper, and there's gonna be probably only one

168
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 3: or two spots that those four or five guys will

169
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 3: be fighting for when it comes to a roster spot.

170
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 3: I think the one advantage, obviously the Flinoy would have

171
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 3: is the fact that he's a six round pick who,

172
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 3: depending on who you talk to, as far as NFL

173
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 3: scouts go, he had some hype coming out, would he

174
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 3: be able to survive a practice squad a practice squad waving?

175
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 3: And so I think that's probably the one thing you

176
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 3: would look at when it comes to Flinoy and maybe

177
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 3: the advantage that he has. But I truly think there's

178
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 3: not gonna be a sizeable gap between all of these receivers. Man,

179
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 3: it's just getting louder as it gets closer.

180
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 2: Hunt, welcome to training camp.

181
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 3: I think the sizeable gap comes in the preseason. That's

182
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 3: gonna be really when those reps really do count. The

183
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 3: preseason work will be really important at that receiver position.

184
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 3: One more name I have for you guys.

185
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 6: When do you, guys expect Trayvon Diggs to get fully

186
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 6: integrated into practice where he's being able to do everything.

187
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 6: Is that's something that you expect during camp? What do

188
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 6: you expect that really? Week one is really what you're targeting.

189
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,719
Speaker 7: For the wrestling match, Well, he didn't really find you

190
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 7: just let Mike I do whatever. But after that, I

191
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 7: mean you would hope anytime soon if you see him

192
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 7: getting thrown on the floor, are impiked up by another

193
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 7: man who.

194
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 2: I don't think.

195
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 3: Body slammed.

196
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 7: No, but I haven't heard any specific I don't know

197
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 7: if you guys.

198
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 3: Have probably has a better perspective of this, I think

199
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 3: from my perspective, Yeah, I'm with you, Derek as far

200
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 3: as getting him a nice ramp up period, nothing too competitive,

201
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 3: maybe until they get back to Frisco, uh, and then

202
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 3: work him back on the field in time for week one.

203
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're absolutely right about that. I talking to some

204
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 2: people that would uh working in that situation. They they're like, listen, no,

205
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 2: hurry here. They're getting really good work from their corners.

206
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 2: By the way, that's one of the if you if

207
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 2: you said, what are some of the things that you're

208
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 2: really excited about training camp? It's what these defensive backs

209
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: have been able to do and especially got like Carson

210
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,079
Speaker 2: and you know Scott. I mean, those guys are getting

211
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,719
Speaker 2: really good work. But right now I think it's more

212
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 2: about uh, they just want to make sure that he's

213
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 2: completely ready with the workouts and stuff like that. It

214
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 2: looked like some of the videos he sit before camp, Dad,

215
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 2: Oh he's back. He's back. And I started talking to

216
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 2: people and it was like, we see those videos, but

217
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 2: we're still a little bit ways to go. So I

218
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 2: think they're gonna be very cautiously optimistic to get him

219
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,959
Speaker 2: on the field. I think the time when we get

220
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 2: back to Frisco would be pretty much.

221
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 3: Where you're at.

222
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 6: And quite frankly, he's not gonna play during the preseason,

223
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 6: So just ramp him up as you need to get

224
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 6: him ready for a week one is the way I

225
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 6: look at it. All Right, we're gonna take our first

226
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 6: break when we come back. We're gonna get some practice

227
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 6: and notes from you guys.

228
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 3: Brian.

229
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 6: I actually saw an interesting tweet you had yesterday. I'm

230
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 6: gonna throw at you. I want you to explain a

231
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 6: little bit on what you mean by it. I'm sure

232
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 6: in your mind is probably millions of them going through

233
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 6: your head because you tweeted it a few times yesterday

234
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:38,200

Speaker 3: We'll get to when we come back back.

236
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 6: Because the Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio.

237
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 8: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

238
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 8: cheat of Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he

239
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 8: bought online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to

240
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 8: be faster than this cheetah. They can run eighty miles

241
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 8: per hour. But the good news is Todd has at

242
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 8: and T five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure,

243
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 8: and he learned the best thing to do is stop

244
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 8: running and toss her the backpack with the beef stew

245
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 8: at and T five G. Fast, reliable, secure five G.

Speaker 6: thought about practices.

00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,080

Speaker 6: meant by that. Explain that a little bit.

314
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, when there's been some times in past administrations.

315
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 2: You know, I remember the Jason Garrett administration. There were

316
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 2: practices where it seemed like it would go on and

317
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 2: on and on and on, and you'd get the work

318
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 2: and on and you could really get something out of

319
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 2: the practice. You can see the mental the toughness the

320
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 2: players having to fight through that practice he had on Saturday.

321
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 2: It was about thirty minutes too long. Yeah it was long,

322
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 2: you know what. But he tested his team. He tested

323
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: his young guys there at the end, and I think

324
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 2: overall just not this practice with Mike, but we've seen

325
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 2: when they go individual, then they turn around, they immediately

326
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 2: go into whether maybe it's a mojo moment on the

327
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 2: goal line, we're running two point plays. It's competitive. You know.

328
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 2: He's trying to do things nine on seven period where

329
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 2: immediately get into the running game one on one, immediately

330
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 2: get into that the period they had where they close out,

331
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 2: walk out, you know, the goal line period, get the

332
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 2: defense points first stop, give the offense of course touchdowns

333
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 2: that they score. He's really trying to find ways to

334
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 2: get his team more mentally tough and to fight through things.

335
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 2: You know, people will tell you though, with Mike McCarthy,

336
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 2: maybe the first several years was Okay, we're gonna kind

337
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 2: of go ease in the pract and we're gonna do this,

338
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 2: so we're gonna, you know, we're gonna take our time.

339
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 2: Every and the players will tell you that Mike McCarthy's

340
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 2: a great guy, but for he really cares about us,

341
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 2: our bodies and how we're practicing and stuff. But I

342
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 2: get a little bit more sense, and maybe it's because

343
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 2: of the situation with everybody overall. It's like, Okay, I've

344
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 2: tried it this way, maybe I need to think about

345
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 2: it this way. And I'm not saying he's doing the

346
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 2: Jimmy Johnson Austin, Oklahoma drills out here, but you are

347
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 2: getting competitive practices where there's a lot more competition than

348
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 2: what we've seen the last several years from him. I

349
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 2: really really like what I'm what I'm seeing as far

350
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: as the way he's setting up these practices.

351
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 7: But also it's kind of ramping up, like he has

352
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 7: to be like, hey, let me just throw you to

353
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 7: the deep end of the waters. It's been like a

354
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 7: slowly growing progress.

355
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 2: Well, you're seeing like the reason why guys like Awesome Richardson,

356
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 2: Thomas the Guard and others and or you could see

357
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 2: these guys niel and you see them getting work and

358
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 2: see them getting better. Is because in the receivers the time, whoever,

359
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 2: guys are getting opportunities to compete. You know, Yes, we

360
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 2: have the mock game, which if you want to take

361
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 2: a nap is great. You know you could take an

362
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 2: It's it's an easy way to recover. But you're you're

363
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 2: able to talk about these guys and write about these

364
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 2: guys in a way because you are having more competition

365
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 2: at positions. It's like, Okay, if we're going to if

366
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 2: we're gonna cut this team, let's know about this team.

367
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 2: And I think they're doing a really good job of

368
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 2: making these players work through longer practices but also practices

369
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 2: that tax them physically more than what we've seen.

370
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 3: In the past. Yeah, it's an emphasis on the youth too,

371
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 3: whenever you factor all of that in, just because of

372
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 3: the bodies that have been available, the bodies that are

373
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 3: here at training camp in general, I think having those

374
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 3: opportunities for the young guys on the team, especially going

375
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 3: into the preseason, that's gonna be huge.

376
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 2: All Right, we're gonna go down the line.

377
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 6: We want to get some practice observations. Give me a

378
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 6: player group moment, something that stood out to you in

379
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 6: practice over the last couple practices. Let's start with Unick.

380
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I must up in front of the line here,

381
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 3: Kayln Carson. As far as the rookie class goes, I

382
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 3: would have to say he's been the most impressive so far.

383
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 3: You talk about physicality and the entire Yeah, and that's

384
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 3: our rookie class. He's been the most impressive as far

385
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 3: as you know, factoring in draft value and how he's

386
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 3: come in and approached the opportunity that's in front of him.

387
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 3: I mean, we're looking up again. It's before the preseason,

388
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 3: so there's still some time for some things to shake out.

389
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 3: But he's the c before in my book, behind the

390
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 3: three starters. He's a guy that I think could play

391
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 3: inside or outside. I think he's a guy that you

392
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 3: probably want on the boundary a little bit more just

393
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 3: because of his physicality, his ability to step up in

394
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 3: the run game on the outside too. But man, I

395
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 3: love his physicality. Sometimes a little bit too physical out here.

396
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 3: There was there was a play I think it was

397
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 3: on Friday where Dak Prescott was kind of scrambling out

398
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 3: and just trying to get out of bounds, and Kaylen

399
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 3: had kind of grabbed his shoulder pad a little bit

400
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 3: and kind of torked him back a little bit, and

401
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 3: Dak looked back at him like, hey, hands off the merchandise,

402
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 3: like you know, keep your keep your keep your hands

403
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 3: for yourself. And it was kind of a funny moment

404
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 3: here on the sideline. But at Kaylin Carson's been great.

405
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 3: Anytime that there's a ball in front of him, he's

406
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 3: going to attack it. It doesn't matter who's in front

407
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 3: of him. He's done a really good job so far.

408
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,159
Speaker 3: He's been the most impressive rookie in my eyes right now.

409
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 6: If you had to compare Na Sean Wright to Kaylin Carson,

410
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 6: where would you put the two.

411
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Kaylen moves a lot better. Kaylen is

412
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 3: always in the right spot a little bit better. I

413
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 3: think with Nashan, it's just a sense of, you know,

414
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,160
Speaker 3: there's sometimes a little bit too much separation in those

415
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,400
Speaker 3: short to intermediate routes, and unfortunately that's what you get

416
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 3: whenever you do have a corner that has that kind

417
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 3: of length in that kind of frame. I mean, he's

418
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 3: a six foot four corner, which really works in certain

419
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 3: instances and especially in zone coverage. If this was a

420
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,719
Speaker 3: zone coverage type defense, it was built to be this

421
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 3: man type team, this physical type team, and I think

422
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 3: sometimes it just doesn't work to Nashawn Wright's favor. But

423
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 3: I have Carson above right. If I was stacking the

424
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 3: depth chart right now on August.

425
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 7: Fifth, ye, well, Mine, it's two starters, so everybody knows these.

426
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 7: Brandon Cooks is one of them. I think it's worth

427
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 7: mentioning him. He's had such a good camp from the

428
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 7: moment he got here, same as last year. My only

429
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 7: concern is, Okay, are they really gonna utilize him this

430
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 7: year more than they did last year. The second guy

431
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 7: that I think it's worth mentioning as well, and I've

432
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 7: been wanting to talk about him is Micah Parsons. I mean,

433
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:52,159
Speaker 7: he started to ramp things up and just make his

434
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 7: presence known on the field, and I wanted to mention this.

435
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 7: I know some people are not buying it the whole act,

436
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 7: but to me, I like when people. I like to

437
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:08,199
Speaker 7: give people the chance to show change and growth and

438
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 7: off the field. I think he's starting to make that

439
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 7: change where he's growing, He's being more vocal in a

440
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 7: nice way. He's portraying and carrying himself as a better teammate,

441
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 7: just more friendly around people. I've seen several interactions just

442
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 7: off the field when they you know, family members, starts

443
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 7: getting getting on the field. I've seen him have interactions

444
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 7: with Stephen Jones where he's just extremely nice and just

445
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 7: relatable in a way. And the way he talks on

446
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 7: the podium as well. So again, I know attitude has

447
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 7: been a topic that we talked a lot about during

448
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 7: the off season with Micah Parsons, and I think whether

449
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 7: or not it is fake to me, I find some

450
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 7: of those interactions very genuine in my perspective. So right now,

451
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 7: it's just a great sign for this moment of the

452
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 7: year to head into the season with the Micah Parsons

453
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 7: that is just portraying positive energy and also being a

454
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 7: badass on the field.

455
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 2: You know, you always ask these questions and I'm never

456
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 2: gonna give you the answer you exactly want to hear.

457
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 2: Give me Mike Zimmer for the coach. Okay, all right,

458
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 2: he's making it hell on these quarterbacks. Yeah, the way

459
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 2: that these secondary the linebackers are disguising coverages, the way

460
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 2: he's moving Parsons around the way that he's he's making

461
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 2: it tough on these quarterbacks. The way the quarterbacks are

462
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,479
Speaker 2: having to respond. We haven't seen this nothing against dan Quinn.

463
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 2: More static, more stationary. But you don't see the disguise

464
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,880
Speaker 2: with Mike. You see the disguise you see you see

465
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 2: Blitzer's home free on rush lea foul against the Ones.

466
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, Mike shows double a gap Leah

467
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 2: foul's home bus maybe, but how did he get to

468
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 2: the situation where he got lea foul free? By the

469
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 2: way he showed, like he made the offensive line have

470
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 2: to adjust to something else he was showing, and then

471
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 2: he ran a guy home free. Now, my player, Hunter

472
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 2: Lipkey has shown a lot in this camp to me

473
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 2: so far. Talk to him if you want to talk

474
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 2: about guys and we and we love to talk about

475
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 2: the word consistency. You love that word. If you talk

476
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 2: about a guy that's had to practice a good practice

477
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 2: really every single day. To me, it's Hunter Lipkey. I

478
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 2: watched him the other day. There was a scramble drill

479
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 2: with Trey lance Ball comes kind of fluttering out there

480
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 2: on a you know, Hunter Lipkey's twenty five yards down

481
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:41,120
Speaker 2: the field, low adjusting scooping catch off the ground. Next play,

482
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 2: he's coming in motion blocking. Next day, next play they're

483
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 2: throwing him the football. They've kind of figured some things

484
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 2: out for Hunter Lipkey, and I think the way that

485
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 2: they figured things out, if you want to start talking

486
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 2: about the running back situation, you could you could kind

487
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 2: of throw out that you could kind of just talk

488
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 2: about I'm talking about Hunter Lipkey as far as the

489
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 2: guy that's shown the most consistency out here and all

490
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 2: the things they're asking him to do.

491
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 3: And do you think kind of in the running back situation,

492
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 3: you look at the dynamics of that room, Hunter Lippi's

493
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 3: kind of on an island by himself. Yes, he's a

494
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 3: lead blocker. He does what no other running back in

495
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 3: that room can do, I mean, a true fullback role.

496
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 3: And I think he's got a safe roster.

497
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, two minute running back in the game as a

498
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 2: blocker and then there's a catcher. You know, those are

499
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 2: the types of things that you absolutely they're going to

500
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 2: find roles for him, much like it is like with Terpin.

501
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 2: You know, let's put him in the backfield, let's throw

502
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 2: him the ball, Let's hand him the ball. You know,

503
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 2: those are the kinds of things that I really like.

504
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if the starting running

505
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 2: back is in this field right now practicing, but I

506
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 2: do know they've got a weapon in a full back,

507
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 2: h back, whatever tight end, whatever position. They might keep

508
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 2: one less tight end knowing what they have with with

509
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 2: Hunter Lipky and his ability to play as a wing

510
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 2: or maybe even play a little in line for in

511
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 2: line next to the tackle there.

512
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 6: Which even gets more interesting when you start thinking about

513
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 6: tight end being one of the deepest positions they've got

514
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,359
Speaker 6: on his team and now you got a guy that

515
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 6: might alter that even and say, like that's where we

516
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 6: start getting back to that original conversational schoolmaker, like, man,

517
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 6: you gotta get out there. You got to got a

518
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 6: way to get out there, because not being out there

519
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 6: is a hard thing when you're talking about cutting this

520
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 6: team down and knowing that you got a bunch of

521
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 6: tight ends that you really love, and you got now

522
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:27,120
Speaker 6: a fullback.

523
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 3: That you really love. Hunter.

524
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 7: He got a chance to talk to the media, and great,

525
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 7: he did a great job. He everything he said. But

526
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,399

Speaker 7: a serious face, very professional, and I wish you guys

531
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 7: could have seen. I mean, we stopped a few photos,

532
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 7: but Nick is just standing there. His face is just

Speaker 7: don't know happen.

538

Speaker 2: But those don't know.

539
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 6: Nick has been like one of the biggest Hunter lip

540

596
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 8: online was reliable, and now Todd is trying to be

597
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 8: faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

600
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,480

611
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 6: In this final segment, I want to talk about the

612
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 6: wide receiver position. I think it is a position that

613
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 6: most would consider who have been out here practice to

614
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 6: be probably the most the most competitive group from the

615
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 6: standpoint of going deep into that roster of guys who

616
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 6: were showing and as you said Brian earlier, making plays.

617
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 6: Every single day you see different guys stepping up and

618
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 6: making plays. Let's start first with two guys. I think

619
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 6: that coming into camp we all were keeping an eye

620
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 6: on from the standpoint of who's going to be your

621
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 6: third wide receiver. I call it the battle of the Jalens.

622
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 6: You got Jalen Tolbert, you got Jalen Brooks. Tell me

623
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 6: how you think that's been playing out so far here

624
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 6: through the first week and a half of practice.

625
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of funny we were talking about, you know,

626
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 3: coming into camp, who could probably be that wide receiver three.

627
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 3: There's gonna be a lot more opportunities on the table

628
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 3: with Ceedee Lamb holding out and the Jalen's are the

629
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 3: first two guys you look at, and I think we

630
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 3: look up a week and a half, almost two weeks

631
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 3: in the camp, you could say three A and three B.

632
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 3: When it comes to those guys, I give the edge

633
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 3: to Tolbert just because I think he's been a lot

634
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 3: more consistent. You see the offseason work that he's put

635
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 3: in with Dak Prescott translating onto the field. And not

636
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 3: to say that Jalen Brooks hasn't been phenomenal too. He's

637
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 3: got some of the strongest hands out here for any player.

638
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 3: When you put the ball in his vicinity, nine times

639
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 3: out of ten he's bringing it down. That's a pretty

640
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 3: good clip. And he's been trusted by all three quarterbacks

641
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 3: in different parts of two minute drills, mojo moments, goal

642
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 3: line situations. So both of these guys have really stood out,

643
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 3: but the edge goes to Tolbert for me, Yeah.

644
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 7: I would say the same thing. I mean, they're very,

645
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 7: very close, and I'm a huge fan of Brooks. I've

646
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 7: always really liked him since last year. I think he

647
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 7: showed moments as well during last year. But it is

648
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 7: very close. Jail in Tolbert. I think he's also been

649
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 7: getting a lot, like slightly more opportunities than Brooks, so

650
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 7: that gives him an advantage as well. You talk about

651
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 7: that off season work that he's done, it's very evident

652
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 7: that he's been working and has a really good relationship

653
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 7: with Dak Prescott, so I think it's starting to show

654
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 7: more on the field. Great job by him for putting

655
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 7: in the work. I know we killed him that first

656
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 7: year and he wasn't really doing much, Like, oh man,

657
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 7: is this one of those buzz type of picks. And

658
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 7: he's starting to show a lot of things now. But

659
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 7: here's my thing. When and I'm sure we're gonna go

660
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 7: down the line of the other guys in the depth

661
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 7: chart here, it's just like every year, I feel like

662
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 7: training camp, it is a time where wide receivers do

663
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 7: stand out. So how do you start kind of putting

664
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 7: some different glasses on to try to filter out the

665
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 7: things that you see now, but then you stop seeing later,

666
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 7: So to me, I'm still trying to figure that part out.

667
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, this receiving Corps as a whole has done a

668
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 2: really good job of making the front office have to

669
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 2: think about how many receivers are they gonna really carry

670
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 2: and if it turns into we can't keep them all,

671
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 2: then now you turn into surplus. And a lot of

672
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:45,959
Speaker 2: times in the league when you start to say, okay,

673
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 2: we're short in this position, but we've got surplus at

674
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 2: receiver maybe somebody's following us, maybe somebody's watching preseason games

675
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 2: and they're saying, Okay, Dallas has got an extra receiver.

676
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 2: That's probably it might be six or seven on their chart,

677
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 2: but they could be a four or five on our chart.

678
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 2: So that's where, all of a sudden, when you have

679
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 2: those competitive periods, that all of a sudden it's like, well,

680
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 2: Dallas might have a surplus in this position. You get

681
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 2: Lamb back, and the next thing you know, everybody goes

682
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 2: down a notch and you got to kind of figure

683
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 2: that out. I'll say this about Tolbert, I wasn't sure

684
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 2: he had the mental toughness to do this. I really didn't.

685
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 2: I thought that Brooks. Brooks is a mentally tough guy. Tolbert,

686
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 2: when you watch him practice, his uniform gets dirty out here.

687
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 2: He's diving for balls, he's got dirt stains, grass stains.

688
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 2: He's trying his best to be competitive. He's running a

689
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 2: lot of routes, he's getting open, he's finishing plays. Those

690
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 2: are all things that when we were looking at Tolbert

691
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 2: and talking about what can he do, he's showing that

692
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 2: to you right now. I was worried that he wasn't

693
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 2: going to be as tough as Brooks when it came

694
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 2: to the stomach to have to do this and do

695
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 2: the dirty work and able to solidify that spot. But

696
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 2: he's done a nice shop so far.

697
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 6: When you look at these receivers. One of the things

698
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 6: that I think pops out to me is, and I said,

699
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 6: coming into camp, I really wanted the Cowboys to consider

700
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 6: Cavante Turpin really filling in a lot more, maybe even

701
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 6: being that wide receiver Thie three. I think one of

702
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 6: the challenges there is he's really pretty much a slot guy.

703
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 6: You're not gonna put him on the boundary very much.

704
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 6: And I wonder you guys tell me, do you think

705
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 6: that that's really the reason why he won't necessarily be

706
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 6: the guy that gets that many reps from the standpoint

707
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 6: of being the third type wide receiver because they really

708
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 6: can't move them around n CD Lamb plays very well

709
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 6: out of the slot. You can do the same thing

710
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 6: with Cooks. It just isn't enough opportunity for him as

711
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 6: in the slot.

712
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's crazy that maybe he might be their best

713
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 2: running back. You know, when you start to talk about

714
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 2: tossing him the ball, handing him the ball there is

715
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 2: some explosiveness out of the backfield with him. What's surprising

716
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 2: about Turpin is how well he gets open and tight

717
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 2: red zee and you're thinking, little guy get lost kind

718
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 2: of a thing, but no, he knows how to work

719
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 2: the end zone when the quarterback's in trouble. He knows

720
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 2: how to move to find space. He's got that awareness.

721
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 2: Do you play him on the outside in the field.

722
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 2: Probably not, But you know there's times where he caught

723
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 2: a slant the other day from Dak and I was

724
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 2: like going, wow, okay on the outside. The shortest receiver

725
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,800
Speaker 2: you got running an inside slant route with tight coverage

726
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 2: comes up with the play. So there's times where he

727
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 2: does show that ability to play on the outside. But

728
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 2: he'll surprise you with how well he plays in the

729
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 2: red zone. I think that's impressive thing that he does

730
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 2: as well.

731
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I understand the point as far as maybe there

732
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 3: is a duplication in the receiving core, as far as

733
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 3: what he could do versus maybe what Ceedee Lamb could do.

734
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 3: But if you isolate Cavante Turpin speed with the ball

735
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 3: in his hands, things are gonna happen. And I think

736
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 3: if they can find a way to consistently do that

737
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 3: in this offense, then he's gonna find some success. I mean,

738
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,439
Speaker 3: we saw it points last year in a couple of games.

739
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,359
Speaker 3: The San Francisco game really stands out in the first half. Now,

740
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 3: while that one drive did not mean a whole lot,

741
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 3: that touchdown tribe that did happen in the first half,

742
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 3: Cavante Turpin was huge on that drive. Then he ended

743
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 3: up scoring on the wheel route. I believe it was

744
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 3: on the right side, over the shoulder, tracked in the ball,

745
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 3: and then you factor in what he could do out

746
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,399
Speaker 3: of the backfield. As long as you get the ball

747
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 3: in Cavante Turpin's hands, I think things are gonna happen.

748
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:19,280
Speaker 3: Second year, going into Mike McCarthy's offense, it's allowing Turpin

749
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 3: to really digest and let this entire offensive system soak in.

750
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna have more success than he had

751
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 3: last year.

752
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 7: And I love everything that he's been doing so far.

753
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 7: And we know he's fast, We've known this, we know

754
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 7: he has the speed.

755
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:32,879
Speaker 2: But to me, the.

756
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 7: Difference this right now is that he has grown as

757
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 7: far as like anticipation. He can anticipate things so much better.

758
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 7: So mentally, what he's seen on the field, I've I've

759
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 7: seen that be completely different than last year. Sometimes you

760
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 7: would see him running and then he gets lost. It's like, okay,

761
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 7: he does a little dance. Would remind me of what

762
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 7: was his name, Whitehead Wicky Whitehead?

763
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:05,799
Speaker 3: Wow, I just remember the red dreads at some point.

764
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 7: Anyways, a point I always remember him because he was

765
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,360
Speaker 7: he was fast, but he would always dance around and

766
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 7: at the end of the day, you didn't gain much.

767
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 7: He's just running on the same spoty kind of. Anyways,

768
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 7: the point is with Cavante, he's he's what his vision

769
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 7: has improved so much, and I think he can be

770
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 7: a really, really good weapon that the Cowboys can truly

771
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,280
Speaker 7: start utilizing even more this season.

772
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 6: All Right, So when we look at the depth of

773
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 6: the wide receiver position, I think we all probably agree

774
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 6: that you got obviously your top two guys in CD

775
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 6: and Cooks, You've got Cavante Turpin who will be on

776
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 6: this team, and then we all seem to love what

777
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 6: we're seeing from Jalen Tobert and Jalen Brooks. The question is,

778
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 6: if they're gonna go six.

779
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 2: Who's that final spot.

780
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 6: So I'm gonna give you four names I want you

781
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 6: guys to rank these four guys based on what you've

782
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:56,359
Speaker 6: seen so far in camp Tyron, Billy Johnson, Deontay Burnett,

783
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 6: who just got here but has been very, very very impressive,

784
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,280
Speaker 6: Jalen Cropper, and David Durden.

785
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 3: I'll start there. I'll just based on what we've seen

786
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 3: out here. I'll go Tyron, Billy Johnson, Jalen Cropper, Burnette,

787
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 3: and then Durden for me, Billy Johnson, I mean that speed,

788
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 3: the veteran experience. You're kind of seeing that translate now.

789
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,359
Speaker 3: We were able to talk to him the media after

790
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 3: practice on Friday, and he said that this is the

791
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 3: first time in his career he's been able to have

792
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 3: the same offense two years in a row, and so

793
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 3: you see that confidence kind of coming out here, and

794
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 3: he's been able to really show that he's been trusted

795
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 3: by Dak Cooper, Rush Trey Lance. He didn't have the

796
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,919
Speaker 3: best Blue and White practice on Saturday, but he's really

797
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,400
Speaker 3: been stacking days out here. But at the end of

798
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 3: the day, like leg I've said, and like Ambar said earlier,

799
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 3: there's always a receiver out here that comes out and

800
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 3: shows out will it translates to the preseason field. That's

801
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 3: gonna be the biggest thing. I think Jalen Cropper is

802
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,279
Speaker 3: coming for Tyron. Billy Johnson. I mean, he had two

803
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 3: touchdowns and two minute drills on Saturday year in the

804
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 3: Blue White practice. In my eyes, I think he had

805
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 3: the best practice of any receiver at camp on Saturday.

806
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 3: So he's coming right there. And I love what I've

807
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 3: seen from Burnett and Dirten as well.

808
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:11,919
Speaker 7: I was gonna put Cropper ahead mainly because but here's

809
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 7: the reason why. The reason to me is like, you're

810
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 7: only as good as, in my eyes, as the last

811
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 7: thing that you showed. So he's the most recent one

812
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,879
Speaker 7: that has been making place, and to me, that's that's

813
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 7: what stays on your mind. You can easily forget what

814
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,479
Speaker 7: happened a week ago. So to me, that's why he's

815
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,800
Speaker 7: in the lead right now at the moment.

816
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 3: Cropper.

817
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 7: Then I would go Billy Johnson. He's shown a lot

818
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,319
Speaker 7: of good things that I like. I like his speed too,

819
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,320
Speaker 7: He's a quick guy on his feet. And then I

820
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 7: would go with Burnett and then Dirt and those two guys,

821
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 7: to me, though they're kind of right there, I don't

822
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 7: it's whoever makes the last play, and that's who takes

823
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 7: a spot for me. They're they're not that much different

824
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:55,839
Speaker 7: from what I've seen so far.

825
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 2: It's not a plug Vanilla Shu guy, but I'll give

826
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 2: a plug to Anilla'shue guy. Racy McMath has shown some

827
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 2: he's got size, and I know he's not part of

828
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 2: the four that we're talking about. I do feel like

829
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 2: that Cropper is closer to Billy Johnson to that point

830
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:15,719
Speaker 2: where you know if you said, Okay, now the competition,

831
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,399
Speaker 2: and I mentioned about being in the personnel trailer, and

832
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 2: then you look at the tags on the board and

833
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 2: you're like, Okay, can we keep six receivers? Can we

834
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 2: afford to do this? This thing might come down to

835
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 2: special teams in the preseason, believe it or not. So

836
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 2: that's where I kind of like focus sin. But I

837
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 2: really do like what I've seen with Cropper and his

838
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,319
Speaker 2: ability to get open, secure the football and make some

839
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 2: plays for you.

840
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,240
Speaker 6: The one thing I will point out, and I've already

841
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 6: mentioned it a little bit, but I want to I

842
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,799
Speaker 6: can't stress it enough. One of the things I love

843
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 6: that I've seen over the last couple of days from

844
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 6: Deontay Burnett is the fact that he's a guy, that

845
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,760
Speaker 6: he's not a big guy, but what you keep seeing

846
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 6: from over and over again, it's it's interesting. You see

847
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 6: a play and you'll see a ball get thrown and

848
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 6: you'll see the receiver covered and you're like, surely that's

849
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 6: gonna be broken up, right, But somehow he comes up

850
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,120
Speaker 6: with the ball. It's like everything that gets to him

851
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 6: sticks to him, and even in traffic. And again, he's

852
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 6: not a big guy. He's a little guy guy, but

853
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,919
Speaker 6: he has the ability whenever the ball gets thrown his way,

854
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 6: if it's within catching radius, he seems to catch it.

855
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 6: He seems to come down with it.

856
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 2: And I really like that.

857
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 6: And I think if he would have been here and

858
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 6: been doing all of that that he's done in the

859
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,880
Speaker 6: last couple of days since the beginning of camp, I

860
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:30,799
Speaker 6: do think we'd be talking about him a little bit more.

861
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 6: And that's why I would say, keep an eye on

862
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 6: this guy. If he keeps developing like that, and certainly

863
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 6: if he gets into the preseason and does what he's

864
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:38,360
Speaker 6: been doing out here, I think that's going to be impressive.

865
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 3: There's only been one guy in this receiver dut Chart,

866
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 3: and I'd love for you all to guests here that

867
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 3: I have not seen drop a pass while we've been

868
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 3: here at training camp. Probably durd d I have seen one.

869
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:49,760
Speaker 3: I have seen one from Durden.

870
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 2: It seems like every time they throw him the ball.

871
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 3: He does have some strong hands. Yeah, I have to

872
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 3: give it to him because I think a lot of

873
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 3: people wrote him off after that injury and it was like, Okay,

874
00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 3: once he heals up, he'll be out of here. But

875
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 3: they've even him another training camp opportunity. He's run with it.

876
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 2: But no, that's that's not the game Cam Johnson.

877
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 3: It's Cam Johnson. It's he has some strong hands. And

878
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 3: it's unfortunate because he's this undrafted free agent, came out

879
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 3: of a Big ten program that didn't have a lot

880
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 3: of offensive production last year, so there's not a lot

881
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:17,759
Speaker 3: of buzz around his name. But man, he's got some

882
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 3: strong hands. He's got a little bit of a route tree.

883
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 3: It's not really downfield, it's more short to intermediate. But

884
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 3: he's been really trusted in some situations with the second

885
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 3: and thirteen. That's a guy to keep an eye on

886
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 3: in the preseason.

887
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 6: Do you think the Cowboys This is really might be

888
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 6: a weird question, but I think the Cowboys are getting

889
00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 6: more out of CD not being here because all these

890
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 6: guys are getting more opportunities, or would you get more

891
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 6: if CD was here and being able to create that

892
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,759
Speaker 6: connection or not create continue that connection he has with that.

893
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 2: I think as a group it with CD not here, Yeah,

894
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,959
Speaker 2: you're getting it. But I think if CD was here,

895
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 2: we'd still see it be a strong group. We'd probably

896
00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 2: be talking about this group like we talk about the linebackers. No,

897
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 2: it's like, boy, it's a good room, you know. Man,

898
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:05,000
Speaker 2: These young guys are making place every day. Somebody that

899
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,919
Speaker 2: we mentioned in this in this segment we just did,

900
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 2: somebody makes a play. It might be one play, it

901
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 2: might be two plays, it might be but they they're

902
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 2: showing up and the fall off has not been big.

903
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 2: Sometimes there's fall off, but not with this group right now.

904
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think uh, I mean, yeah, obviously you're gonna

905
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 7: take advantage of those extra reps though you're gonna get

906
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 7: without CD being here. But at the same time, I

907
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,800
Speaker 7: mean it glues the group. He he what do you

908
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 7: say coming?

909
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 2: People keep passing it?

910
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 7: Do you guys? Oh my goodness, we keep We thought

911
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 7: it was gonna happen this this past week and they

912
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 7: still has not. But I think, if anything, him not

913
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 7: being here hurts the group more, and I hope they

914
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 7: can figure out very quickly because we and Derek, we

915
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 7: were talking about it a little bit uh off off

916
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 7: the show off, but we tend to see sometimes. To

917
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,320
Speaker 7: me what I've seen from situations like that, it tends

918
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 7: to it's gonna take a few games. And you can

919
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 7: see that at the beginning of the season. Can you

920
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 7: afford to have a few games where it kind of

921
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,320
Speaker 7: takes him a while to get back on track Because

922
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 7: one thing is practicing on the field in Dack's backyard

923
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 7: and hanging out together. Another thing is a real football game,

924
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,960
Speaker 7: when the lights come on, when real football is happening,

925
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 7: and when you're dealing with so many other variants happening.

926
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 7: So anyways, to answer your question, I think it hurts

927
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 7: more him not being here.

928
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 3: I was talking about with my amazing roommate here at

929
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 3: camp yesterday. It was like, so, if CD like shows

930
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 3: up tomorrow, do you think he would be ready in

931
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 3: time for the Rams practice on Thursday? And I was like, yeah,

932
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 3: probably not. Like whenever he does get here, there's still

933
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:50,840
Speaker 3: gonna be a ramp up period, And so this staff

934
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 3: is very intentional about whenever guys arrive and they've been

935
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 3: away from the team for a little bit, get them

936
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,240
Speaker 3: back integrated, make it slow so that they're not rushing anything,

937
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 3: both with the process and with their body. So yeah,

938
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,320
Speaker 3: even if if cdee Lamb did show up today or tomorrow,

939
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 3: we're probably not seeing him in full, full pads and

940
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 3: full go until probably next week's that's a that's a

941
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:10,439
Speaker 3: scenario that's not gonna happen anyway.

942
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, sorry about that kind of an observation out real

943
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 2: quick though. We talk about these guys coming off injuries,

944
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 2: are you seeing John Stevens the same way as you

945
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:18,919
Speaker 2: saw him last year?

946
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 3: It's it's fascinating because.

947
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 2: I know I haven't. Yeah, he's still there's still positive

948
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 2: plays about it, but I don't see the splash or

949
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 2: the big plays that and maybe that coming off that

950
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 2: knee injury. I mean, that's something we always worry about,

951
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,799
Speaker 2: you know, how long before these guys. You know, he's

952
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,520
Speaker 2: fighting for he's fighting for a spot. But man, he

953
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,319
Speaker 2: was so good this time last year. But I kind

954
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 2: of feel like that I've seen him just not as

955
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 2: much as I've seen some others.

956
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,840
Speaker 3: He's a different player this time because he has the

957
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 3: eleven twelve pounds added. Yeah, he's learning how to marry

958
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 3: that new size that he has with his ability. Also

959
00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 3: trying to understand like what where he fits as an

960
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,319
Speaker 3: inline guy in this offense. I think there's a lot

961
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 3: of learning and understanding that he's soaked up in his

962
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 3: brain over the course of last year, and now he's

963
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 3: trying to apply it all at once on the field.

964
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 3: I say, give him a couple of weeks just to

965
00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 3: kind of apply all that.

966
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 2: I was just worried about that knee injury thing that

967
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 2: we always like, oh yeah they're back, Yeah, everything's great,

968
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 2: and then it's week six that all, oh wow, he

969
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 2: looks like he's ready to play football.

970
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,359
Speaker 3: I will say he has suffered from the drops he's

971
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:22,719
Speaker 3: out here.

972
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 2: That's he's had that you mentioned catches and drops. That's

973
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:26,839
Speaker 2: kind of what I was noticing too.

974
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 6: All right, appreciate you guys. Jonas will be back on
