But most importantly, there are football players on 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:14.600 the premises officially. 0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:18.760 As yes, the alarm has gone off. It's the start 0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:25.160 of the twenty twenty three off season for your Dallas Cowboys. 0:02:25.720 --> 0:02:27.200 There were guys working out. 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:29.720 Thanks for covering for me, Beryl, I appreciate that. 0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:33.920 Yeah, I saw football players on a football field as 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:34.480 I walked down. 0:02:34.520 --> 0:02:37.160 Had about twenty thirty guys out there today. 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:42.600 Really, well, who are they? Unrecognizable people? Did you do well? 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:44.640 They didn't have their jerseys on. 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:48.720 These are come on, mister, These aren't tryout guys like 0:02:48.840 --> 0:02:53.760 he needs ID people.

These aren't 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:57.680 guys coming in for workout, you know, free agents or whatever. 0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:02.280 These are guys on the fifty three man roster during 0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:05.120 the season. These are guys on the what is a 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:08.600 growing roster getting up to ninety which I have after 0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:11.160 the draft and so forth, and it's time to get 0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:13.280 to work. Of course, the rest of the league who 0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:16.920 changed head coaches, they could start their off season programs 0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:19.480 a week ago. Well this is the start today. 0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:25.320 Everybody weird on the numbers. Ninety for the off season. 0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:27.600 That's a lot. 0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:29.760 You probably had one hundred and twenty. 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:30.000 I know. 0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:33.639 That's what's crazy, because ninety is a big number, yes, 0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:35.000 and that's. 0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:36.560 How you get through these preseason games. 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:42.720 Though, Now that was ninety for the entire team. Yeah, 0:03:43.200 --> 0:03:45.280 we had one twenty five. 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:52.760 Rookies reporting like July fourth, thousand for two weeks, right 0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:55.720 for two weeks a rookie camp before training camp. 0:03:56.000 --> 0:03:58.320 Godly, that's crazy, man, that's crazy. 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:01.280 Those were the odds that were stacked. Again, and we 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:04.840 don't have personal walls. Out of Grambling State University at 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:06.080 nineteen eighty one, it. 0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:12.200 Called Oaks California called me off Oklahoma sooner who leaves 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:15.560 the ris to a win.

I was geeked, 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.000 but not getting giddy. 0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:28.400 Giddy is the Australian guy the thunder. 0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:31.920 Oh you mean the person giddy? You got clear? 0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:34.800 I thought I thought you were, said Reeves. I said giddy, 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:36.360 I thought you were. 0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:39.520 I never heard of the guy he scored thirty one points. 0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:43.000 I saw him score forty in a game at TCU 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:43.679 in college. 0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:45.640 Really you late to the party? 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:49.039 Well, I don't watch you don't watch bad And we 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:51.800 don't want to talk about NBA now either. There's more 0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:54.000 important things to talk about. You want to start with 0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:55.360 the breaking news of the morning. 0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:57.840 No, that's I don't want to talk about that either. 0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:02.839 You can't identify with two hundred and fifty five five five. 0:05:03.680 --> 0:05:06.760 I am proud of him, though, Texas kid. You know 0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:10.240 the way I've always talked about how I really admired 0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:15.520 how Jalen changed his game coming out of college. 0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:19.000 And we should say for those who haven't heard, Jaan 0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:24.080 Hurt has agreed to a contract extension which will make 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:28.520 him the highest paid player in National Football League history 0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:31.360 five years, two hundred and fifty five million, one hundred 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:34.120 eighty nine million in guarantees and a no trade class. 0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:34.920 Go ahead, every man. 0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:37.360 I'm just saying proud of him, the way he changed 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:40.719 his game, the way he adapted to on every level. 0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:43.760 You know, when he left Alabama, they won the championships, 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:46.800 but he was not that guy. Then he goes to Oklahoma, 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:49.440 he wasn't that guy. He was, but he was a 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:53.120 Heisman Trophy candidate, right, And that means that he was 0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:56.720 able to adapt once again. He went from being an 0:05:56.760 --> 0:06:01.400 all running quarterback to a very decent, more than decent quarterback. 0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:06.120 Took his struggles into the NBA, into the NFL, and 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:09.120 as a second round draft pick, after a few years, 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:13.040 he actually became a Super Bowl quarterback. 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:18.159 It is a lesson to so many out there today 0:06:18.720 --> 0:06:22.320 who are diving into that transfer portal at the at 0:06:22.320 --> 0:06:26.320 the earliest sign of problems at whatever school you're at. 0:06:26.480 --> 0:06:30.520 For these for these freshmen who report to college and 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.400 then they're not getting playing time or whatever. Well, here's 0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:36.680 a guy at who was at Alabama who earned the 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:40.200 starting quarterback position and then in the middle of a 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:44.240 national championship game had it taken away from him. And 0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:48.680 he doesn't get upset and leave school and go transfer 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:53.479 someplace else. He stayed and while Tua was the starting quarterback, 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:57.560 he was actually needed late in that next season in 0:06:57.600 --> 0:07:01.799 the SEC championship game, comes off the helps his team, 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:06.600 and then he graduates from college. And then at that point, 0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:12.000 even with the approval or the I wouldn't don't know 0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:15.960 if it's recommendation so much, but with the graces of 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:20.680 Nick Saban, who actually helped him find a landing spot, 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:24.720 he transfers to Oklahoma as a graduate and then for 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.080 a year there, and then he gets into the NFL 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:31.239 and he's the second round in Oklahoma Lincoln Riley and 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:33.160 and that's where he ran the ball more than he 0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:38.520 passed the ball. And as you said, he was at 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:40.920 a nice season at Oklahoma, and then he goes into 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:44.120 the NFL and people were saying, oh, no, he's he's 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:45.080 a running quarterback. 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:45.520 He can't. 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:51.000 But through it all he showed great leadership, not only 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:54.400 at Alabama but also in his one year at Oklahoma. 0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:57.320 He was unquestionably the leader of that team. Much like 0:07:57.680 --> 0:08:00.440 the quarterback we have here in dak Prescott. He goes 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:06.760 to Philadelphia as a backup and everyone just uh clamored 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.800 to him, you know, his teammates uh uh, and. 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:14.080 The organization it really seemed to like him as a. 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:16.920 Leader, and you know why because of his work ethic 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:20.080 and he was he was a nose to the grindstone guy, 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:23.640 just like Dak Prescott here, the guy that you want 0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:25.800 to have your face of your organization. 0:08:26.120 --> 0:08:29.040 And they really put all of the talent around him. 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:33.120 And that's the good news for the Cowboys is now 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:37.000 they're having to pay their quarterback and take up that. 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:40.920 This is why this is somebody. 0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:44.520 Already this year, everybody last year, they were able to 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:48.000 make the moves they made in free agency because they. 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:51.360 Weren't paying their quarterbacks. And now they're paying their quarterback. 0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:54.520 And now and understand this is an extension because he's 0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:57.520 still on the last year of his rookie contract. 0:08:57.120 --> 0:09:02.440 Now Watson type of contract in regards to he's not 0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:05.080 into the new into the extension yet. 0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:09.319 Right the base salaries, yes, his base salary for twenty 0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:11.640 twenty three is still there, but they can put some 0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:16.839 of the signing bonus into this year. You know what, 0:09:17.360 --> 0:09:22.040 I think he's a poster boy for showing the value 0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:25.840 of not leaving college early to go into the NFL 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:29.640 and get all the snaps available in college. 0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:34.559 Situation was great for him and then changed his whole. 0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:38.760 Game and then for everybody else out there. Don't judge 0:09:38.800 --> 0:09:43.719 a quarterback after one year or two years. Sometimes it takes. 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:46.200 A while to fill up with him the stick. 0:09:46.640 --> 0:09:49.720 No, when you take one in the first round, if 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:56.400 he doesn't play well, I'll clean it up. The first year. 0:09:56.880 --> 0:10:00.000 It's like, Okay, this guy can't play right, just right 0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:00.960 them off. Well. 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:06.320 Sometimes it takes overquile to develop, and the teams force 0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:10.160 guys to play because of the money they spend on them, 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:14.040 and it shouldn't affect it anymore because if you're a 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:18.720 rookie on a rookie contract, you're not making fifty two 0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:20.640 hundred and fifty five million, right. 0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:23.440 It's tach for him to break into the starting lineup. 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:28.679 Well, he started somewhat his second year and this was 0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:30.959 really his first full censor. 0:10:31.080 --> 0:10:32.240 Am I right? Third year? 0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:37.200 He no, this was his second year year. This was 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:39.480 his second year as a full time starter. His rookie 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:42.719 year in twenty twenty, he played in fifteen games. He 0:10:42.840 --> 0:10:45.280 started four games at the end of the season and 0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:48.760 had a one in three record as a starting quarterback. 0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:54.240 And then in twenty twenty one, he started fifteen games, 0:10:54.400 --> 0:10:58.160 they went eight and seven. He complete, take it back 0:10:58.160 --> 0:11:00.480 to his rookie year, he only completed fifty two percent 0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:04.880 of his passes, had four picks and six touchdowns, and 0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:06.599 I don't have his rushing stats in front of me, 0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:09.200 but all right. So then the next year they go 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:11.680 eight and seven with him as the starting quarterback in 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:16.080 his fifteen start, sixty one percent completion percentage, nine picks, 0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:20.600 sixteen touchdowns. And then this year Pro Bowl season, near 0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:23.600 MVP season, they went fourteen and one when he was 0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:27.640 the starter in fifteen games and six picks, twenty two 0:11:27.720 --> 0:11:29.000 touchdowns and. 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:30.440 A very good Super Bowl game. 0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:34.640 He didn't go in, and the moment was never too 0:11:34.640 --> 0:11:38.160 big for him except for the one mistaken made. 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:41.559 And he had seven hundred and eighty four yards rushing 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:45.920 in twenty twenty one, seven sixty and thirteen touchdowns in 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:46.959 twenty twenty two. 0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:49.600 So it was kind of a gradual progression for him. 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.199 But even go back to college and to your point 0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:55.679 on when we look at these quarterbacks coming into the 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:58.880 draft this year and the need for them to play 0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:02.720 immediately or or take a year learn the NFL. So forth, 0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:04.880 you go back to his college days, and he was 0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:09.319 a starter at Alabama in twenty sixteen and twenty seventeen, 0:12:10.000 --> 0:12:12.160 and that was the year where then Tua took over 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:15.360 the national championship game and they won. Twenty eighteen, he's 0:12:15.360 --> 0:12:19.000 the backup okay, and came in as needed late in 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:21.160 the year, and then transferred Oklahoma in twenty. 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:23.000 Valuables for Alabama when he came in. 0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:27.920 So he had over one thousand pass attempts in college. 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.240 And by the way, Everson not only two hundred and 0:12:31.240 --> 0:12:35.240 fifty five million over five years, another fifteen million in 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:36.480 its centives he can earn. 0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:39.360 Wow, what do you need a sentis. 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:44.640 Well? Playoff? Is the production? 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:46.040 Yeah? 0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:46.839 Team stuff. 0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:50.600 So it ends up being an average if my math's correct, 0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:52.440 fifty one million a year. 0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:57.320 Okay. So where's Dak in his contract right now? He's 0:12:57.400 --> 0:12:58.920 halfway through half year. 0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:01.200 This will be his third season of four. 0:13:01.920 --> 0:13:06.720 What if Dak okay, so, Jalen had one year, had 0:13:06.760 --> 0:13:09.160 one has one year left on his contract. 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:13.160 And gets this deal. Okay, what if Dak puts together 0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:17.840 the same kind of season this year that Jalen put 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:21.160 together last year? What does that do for Dak Prescott? 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:22.920 Then next year at this time. 0:13:22.760 --> 0:13:24.839 He's asking for two hundred and seventy million. 0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:27.400 That's give me more. 0:13:27.559 --> 0:13:31.440 That's that's the carrot out there for Dak Prescott and 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:32.680 your Dallas Cowboys. 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:38.000 Don't think that alert came across with quarterback. 0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:41.719 Quarterbacks all across the league had an extra bounce in 0:13:41.800 --> 0:13:43.120 their steps and they so. 0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:48.679 Well, you know, he has his own turf now with 0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:49.200 the house. 0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:52.880 Oh he's had it, yes, yeah, yeah, and he's been 0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:56.839 throwing what what uh one of the wide receivers that 0:13:56.960 --> 0:14:00.840 he'd been working out with him out in his backyard. 0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:04.959 I can't remember it pointed out, but anyway, he's been 0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:05.959 throwing the guys. 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:06.599 Yeah. 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:09.760 So you know, but that's the market. 0:14:10.400 --> 0:14:14.920 And again they couldn't resign all their defensive linemen, right linebackers. 0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:17.400 They Philadelphia had to let some guys go. 0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:21.000 And the market grave is gone to the enemy. Right. 0:14:22.200 --> 0:14:27.040 Try the market for quarterbacks when they sign this contract. 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:29.920 It's like when you buy a car. As soon as 0:14:29.920 --> 0:14:32.240 you drive it off the lot, the value of that 0:14:32.520 --> 0:14:35.800 contract goes down. The value of that car goes down. Well, 0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:38.600 Jalen's gonna he's gonna sign that contract. He's going to 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.080 drive out of the parking lot and the value of 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:42.920 that contract is going down because they're going the next 0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:46.560 one that comes along. What do you think Lamar Jackson's thinking, I. 0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:50.160 Was just gonna. Lamar Jackson right now is going crazy. 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:51.640 And I'm sure the Ravens off. 0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:52.680 He's already been going. 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:55.400 I'm sure that puts a lot of pressure, not just 0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:57.280 on the Mark but the Ravens themselves. 0:14:57.760 --> 0:15:00.000 I mean, you see everyone's getting the jet, the quarterbacks. 0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:04.520 So now Dashawn his was fully guaranteed the whole thing, Yes, 0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:06.720 at two hundred and forty what was it? 0:15:06.960 --> 0:15:08.440 I believe him to forty. 0:15:08.760 --> 0:15:14.600 So would if the Ravens offered Lamar Jackson this deal 0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:18.360 five years, two fifty five, one eighty nine guaranteed, would 0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:19.560 Lamar Jackson take it? 0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:23.800 He's already been offered something similar to that, am I right? 0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:24.840 And he turned it down. 0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:28.440 He wanted to be the highest paid, Okay, so this 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:30.480 was now the highest paid just went up. 0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:30.920 Yeah. 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:34.960 But the but the guaranteed money, right is Deshaun Watson 0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:38.160 has more guaranteed money right than Jalen Hurts. 0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:41.280 Hurts got one hundred and seventy nine one hundred and 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:46.280 twenty six and a half uh guaranteed at signing yeah, 0:15:47.000 --> 0:15:50.040 all right, we got a crowd when you looked up, 0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:54.360 I said, Oh, Nate's showing now we wish Oh heyah threatened, 0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:55.560 he threatened to show up. 0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:57.040 He should man, miss Nate. 0:15:57.160 --> 0:15:58.280 What does Nate want to talk about? 0:15:58.360 --> 0:16:01.440 He wanted to talk about the Cowboys not drafting a 0:16:01.560 --> 0:16:02.960 running back in the first round. 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:06.040 Oh maybe we'll maybe we'll have to be after that 0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:06.680 coming up. 0:16:06.560 --> 0:16:08.960 Here, because he thinks if they take care of the 0:16:09.000 --> 0:16:12.400 guard position in the tight end position, that that would 0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:14.120 take care of the running back position. 0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:15.400 A true. 0:16:16.160 --> 0:16:17.720 Yeah, And we. 0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:21.120 Had like a half hour discussion.

This ought 0:20:03.080 --> 0:20:05.439 to be very interesting. In fact, I've spent a lot 0:20:05.480 --> 0:20:09.680 of time here in the last few days just trying 0:20:09.680 --> 0:20:12.960 to figure out what the Cowboys need to do as 0:20:13.080 --> 0:20:16.960 to improve their run game. And to the point, then 0:20:17.680 --> 0:20:21.000 last night late and then this morning I went back 0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:24.800 and just tried to did a refresher course, tried to 0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:28.600 refresh my memory on exactly what was going on with 0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:31.359 the run game in the late in the season and 0:20:31.480 --> 0:20:34.840 in the postseason, and to refresh everybody's memory on it. 0:20:36.520 --> 0:20:38.360 You know, the Cowboys run game was doing all right 0:20:38.480 --> 0:20:43.560 last year until December and then December and January, whether 0:20:43.600 --> 0:20:47.040 it was Ezekiel Elliott or Tony Pollard, they weren't getting 0:20:47.119 --> 0:20:49.080 much in the run game. And in fact, if you 0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:54.040 look after the Terrence Steel injured, which was which was 0:20:54.119 --> 0:20:58.119 right before halftime of the Houston game, and that was 0:20:59.080 --> 0:21:02.560 they had four more regular season games after that after 0:21:02.600 --> 0:21:05.000 that point in the season. I did the math on it. 0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:09.679 Ezekiel Elliott averaged two point seven yards per carry the 0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:12.040 rest of the regular season and it didn't get any 0:21:12.080 --> 0:21:18.520 better in the playoffs. And Tony Pollard averaged two point 0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:23.200 nine to five yards per carry the last four games 0:21:23.200 --> 0:21:24.120 of the season. 0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:28.440 Probably only because he busted a long one to stretch 0:21:28.480 --> 0:21:30.720 a two point two average out. 0:21:31.440 --> 0:21:37.000 And so there was a clearly an issue that the 0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:39.840 Cowboys were having with the run game. 0:21:40.560 --> 0:21:44.360 You could clearly see. I recall when Still went down. 0:21:44.880 --> 0:21:49.359 Somehow our tackles, our runs for losses increased big time. 0:21:49.920 --> 0:21:53.359 We had a lot of negative plays when he went down. 0:21:53.640 --> 0:21:58.160 Well, two things happened. I don't know if you could tell. 0:21:59.200 --> 0:22:03.679 Number one, when Steele went down, so they put Tyron 0:22:03.760 --> 0:22:04.359 Smith there. 0:22:04.400 --> 0:22:07.159 Well that immediately they put Josh Ball there because Tyron 0:22:07.240 --> 0:22:09.680 wasn't active yet. It was the next week week. 0:22:09.760 --> 0:22:15.719 Yeah, Tyron Smith hadn't played a down of football since August. 0:22:16.040 --> 0:22:16.800 It was a week and a. 0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:19.320 Half before the start of the season, and now all 0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:21.159 of a sudden, he's got to go play and a 0:22:21.200 --> 0:22:23.320 position he hadn't played since twenty twelve. 0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:27.919 He was okay, right, He wasn't. 0:22:27.680 --> 0:22:30.200 Great, No, but he wasn't bad. 0:22:30.240 --> 0:22:31.000 But he wasn't bad. 0:22:31.119 --> 0:22:35.080 No, But it wasn't what Terrren Steele was giving them 0:22:35.359 --> 0:22:36.800 in the run game, I think. 0:22:37.400 --> 0:22:41.480 And if you just any proof of that, just listen 0:22:41.600 --> 0:22:44.720 to anything Zach Martin has said about Terry Steele in 0:22:44.760 --> 0:22:47.240 the run game in the last year and a half, 0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:51.680 and he has nothing. I mean, he basically was quoted 0:22:51.720 --> 0:22:55.280 mid season last year as saying he's never been never 0:22:55.320 --> 0:22:58.680 played next to a guy who's better in the blocking 0:22:58.680 --> 0:22:59.240 in the run. 0:22:59.119 --> 0:23:01.600 Game, and Terry his game a lot easier as well, 0:23:01.680 --> 0:23:02.000 that's right. 0:23:03.040 --> 0:23:06.040 And then if you remember, and it stretched over two 0:23:06.119 --> 0:23:10.520 games when Beyotdish got hurt in the game and then 0:23:10.560 --> 0:23:13.320 they had to move the guard to center, the tackle 0:23:13.480 --> 0:23:16.920 to guard, and somebody else had to play tackle who was. 0:23:16.920 --> 0:23:23.560 Forty years old and so and then he missed the game, 0:23:25.040 --> 0:23:26.200 and it just. 0:23:26.560 --> 0:23:29.840 Would you recall who they started the starting five up 0:23:29.840 --> 0:23:32.680 front in the Tampa Bay game in the playoffs. 0:23:33.200 --> 0:23:36.320 So they started with Jason Peters. 0:23:36.400 --> 0:23:40.080 Jason Peters played left tackle, Tyler Tyler Smith at left guard. 0:23:40.160 --> 0:23:43.679 Beyotdish was its center, Zach Martin and Tyrone Smith, and 0:23:43.720 --> 0:23:46.720 they played a lot of Connor McGovern at fullback or 0:23:46.760 --> 0:23:48.080 as a third tiight. 0:23:48.040 --> 0:23:51.440 End, which I thought that was the most valuable part 0:23:51.480 --> 0:23:54.399 of all that, right, because I kept seeing people pointing 0:23:54.440 --> 0:23:58.920 out in the offseason, Oh, the Cowboys lost Jason Peters. 0:23:59.040 --> 0:24:02.920 It's like, oh, ok, he was okay. 0:24:03.400 --> 0:24:05.720 And then for the San Francisco get they had lost 0:24:05.760 --> 0:24:08.680 Jason Peters in the Tampa game, right, and so then 0:24:08.920 --> 0:24:11.439 McGovern had to go back to left guard, So Tyler 0:24:11.440 --> 0:24:15.480 Smith is at left tackle, and so that the full 0:24:15.520 --> 0:24:17.360 back lost that tied end. 0:24:17.680 --> 0:24:19.480 They were using McEwan right. 0:24:19.840 --> 0:24:24.600 Av On Collins came came as that in their and 0:24:24.720 --> 0:24:28.520 McGovern was starting. McGovern was starting to left guard. So 0:24:28.560 --> 0:24:31.159 that's how they were tricking it up. And that was 0:24:31.200 --> 0:24:32.960 the thing when I went back and looked at the 0:24:32.960 --> 0:24:36.560 two playoff games, they were tricking it up, just trying 0:24:36.560 --> 0:24:39.080 to run the ball, just to get anything going. So 0:24:39.200 --> 0:24:43.600 many three tight end formations and they were into a 0:24:43.880 --> 0:24:46.240 you know, third and one or third and two situation, 0:24:46.400 --> 0:24:48.199 and they had to run trick plays just to get 0:24:48.240 --> 0:24:53.760 a yard. The problem was not Ezekiel Elliott or obviously 0:24:53.800 --> 0:24:57.320 Tony Pollard had a great year. But the problem was 0:24:57.320 --> 0:25:01.280 not the running backs. The problem was nothing else, and 0:25:01.320 --> 0:25:05.240 I'm not sure that it was necessarily just the offensive line. 0:25:05.359 --> 0:25:08.359 I think part of it, too, is this team was 0:25:08.400 --> 0:25:11.719 not threatening the opponents in the passing game to where 0:25:11.800 --> 0:25:14.520 Tampa Bay and San Francisco were able to load up 0:25:14.520 --> 0:25:18.320 to stop the run, especially in obvious run situations. 0:25:18.600 --> 0:25:21.560 Well, it's always been. That's always been the way they've 0:25:21.840 --> 0:25:25.480 defeated the Cowboys. Any opposition that you know goes into 0:25:25.480 --> 0:25:28.560 it with a particular game plan, it was always let's 0:25:28.640 --> 0:25:32.560 see if Dak can beat us. That's always been the case. 0:25:32.600 --> 0:25:37.080 And really, if you're looking at except for some exceptional quarterbacks, 0:25:37.160 --> 0:25:39.919 if you're looking at beating any team, that's what you 0:25:39.960 --> 0:25:40.480 want to stop. 0:25:40.520 --> 0:25:43.040 First. You want to make sure they cannot run the 0:25:43.080 --> 0:25:44.119 ball on you. First. 0:25:44.400 --> 0:25:47.200 We're looking at our Cowboys wide receivers. As much as 0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:49.440 we love them, they're all people that we are endoing 0:25:49.520 --> 0:25:52.640 with over the season. We know eventually it's been it was, 0:25:52.880 --> 0:25:55.840 it was came out of the fog. We only have 0:25:56.160 --> 0:25:59.399 one number one wide receiver, and when you look at 0:25:59.400 --> 0:26:01.640 our number two receiver injured. 0:26:01.320 --> 0:26:04.000 A lot coming off in Acum. 0:26:04.440 --> 0:26:06.760 Wasn't really ready to make the moves that need to 0:26:06.800 --> 0:26:09.560 be made. We asked him to run routes that really 0:26:09.600 --> 0:26:11.960 weren't helping on based on the. 0:26:11.840 --> 0:26:13.320 Surgery that he just had. 0:26:14.560 --> 0:26:17.200 Had hold Mill and a lot of different wide receivers 0:26:17.200 --> 0:26:19.640 in there, I would have taken that approach as well, 0:26:19.840 --> 0:26:25.240 how well can these receivers help our quarterback based on 0:26:25.359 --> 0:26:26.600 their lack of experience. 0:26:26.640 --> 0:26:28.160 The other part of it is when you go back 0:26:28.200 --> 0:26:32.159 to last off season, is signed James Washington, and James 0:26:32.200 --> 0:26:34.600 Washington didn't pan out. He got hurt in the early 0:26:34.640 --> 0:26:36.919 part of the CAF, so he was coming off an 0:26:36.960 --> 0:26:42.159 injury too. You had traded Amari Cooper away, and so 0:26:42.200 --> 0:26:44.440 there was the obvious need right there was a void. 0:26:44.520 --> 0:26:46.920 He had a third round draft pick, Jaalen Tolbert, who 0:26:46.960 --> 0:26:49.359 needed more than he wasn't able to step in and 0:26:49.359 --> 0:26:51.560 contribute his rookie year. We'll see where he is now 0:26:51.600 --> 0:26:54.240 going into his second year. But there was that void 0:26:54.320 --> 0:26:57.560 that they that they had and they tried to once 0:26:57.600 --> 0:27:01.560 they saw that James Washington didn't have what he needed. 0:27:01.760 --> 0:27:04.159 Then they finally got t Y Hilton in here, and 0:27:04.200 --> 0:27:04.880 it was too late. 0:27:05.040 --> 0:27:09.080 And in the playoff games, I just looked he two 0:27:09.160 --> 0:27:10.920 games he had three catches. 0:27:11.920 --> 0:27:14.160 So but you can't I mean, you really can't expect. 0:27:14.280 --> 0:27:18.919 No, I'm saying that was the third guy behind the 0:27:18.960 --> 0:27:22.080 second guy who still wasn't himself. 0:27:21.560 --> 0:27:23.680 And you're just saying that's what we had to deal 0:27:23.720 --> 0:27:25.640 with in a passing situation. 0:27:25.320 --> 0:27:28.960 Right, And that all contributed to what was going on 0:27:29.040 --> 0:27:30.640 in the run game late in the season two. 0:27:30.920 --> 0:27:33.160 But to me, you started in the beginning. 0:27:33.400 --> 0:27:36.439 Our offensive line, if they are stable, and it's always 0:27:36.480 --> 0:27:37.600 been like that around. 0:27:37.280 --> 0:27:38.960 Here, especially since that culture changed. 0:27:39.400 --> 0:27:42.520 Our offensive line has always been the strength of this team. 0:27:43.040 --> 0:27:46.560 And we have depth. But was that depth good enough 0:27:46.880 --> 0:27:48.199 to keep us going strong? 0:27:48.400 --> 0:27:53.800 And it just was not so going forward, They've got 0:27:54.040 --> 0:27:59.560 two questions on that offensive line that need answers. Number One, 0:28:00.240 --> 0:28:04.040 is Terrence Steel ready to start the season because he 0:28:04.080 --> 0:28:06.520 had the surgery December thirteenth. 0:28:06.800 --> 0:28:08.639 So do the math. 0:28:09.920 --> 0:28:15.719 If it takes you seven months to recover, We're talking 0:28:16.240 --> 0:28:21.000 end of July, right, training camp's already started. 0:28:21.280 --> 0:28:23.120 If it takes nine months. 0:28:23.080 --> 0:28:27.119 We're talking the end of September. So what happens at 0:28:27.160 --> 0:28:28.719 that right tackle spot? 0:28:30.960 --> 0:28:34.080 And then number two? How do they. 0:28:35.520 --> 0:28:39.200 Judge what Tyron Smith can give them? Is he a 0:28:39.240 --> 0:28:40.040 swing tackle? 0:28:41.640 --> 0:28:44.000 But I'd rather he not be at this age? 0:28:44.160 --> 0:28:44.640 All right? 0:28:44.920 --> 0:28:49.680 So is he the starting left tackle? I see if 0:28:49.800 --> 0:28:53.480 Terrence Steele's ready to go at right tackle, but if 0:28:53.520 --> 0:28:55.680 he's not, is he's the starting right tackle? 0:28:56.000 --> 0:28:56.200 Yeah? 0:28:56.240 --> 0:28:59.239 The easy spot. The easiest part of this would be 0:28:59.600 --> 0:29:01.280 Terrence coming back in time. 0:29:01.400 --> 0:29:05.360 Right, but there's no guarantee. And even in case scenario, 0:29:05.560 --> 0:29:07.560 he's going to be right up again pushing the start 0:29:07.600 --> 0:29:09.760 of the regular and I think everybody. 0:29:09.440 --> 0:29:12.440 Even when he comes back, you still have to. 0:29:12.400 --> 0:29:13.400 Get into it right. 0:29:13.600 --> 0:29:14.040 You got to. 0:29:14.080 --> 0:29:18.120 Practice, and you lost Connor McGovern right in free agency, 0:29:18.200 --> 0:29:19.560 so you have a hole at left. 0:29:19.400 --> 0:29:21.200 Guard right now. 0:29:21.560 --> 0:29:26.200 If if everything was equal and Terren Steele's ready to go, 0:29:26.800 --> 0:29:29.560 and you think Tyron Smith's got another year on him, 0:29:29.640 --> 0:29:32.720 then he could be your left tackle. Tyler Smith can 0:29:32.960 --> 0:29:36.880 move in to left guard. Got beattish and Martin right, 0:29:37.520 --> 0:29:42.040 but they won't know that now. I think everybody got 0:29:42.080 --> 0:29:44.960 carried away. When I think Stephen Jones, I think it 0:29:45.000 --> 0:29:47.560 was at the Combine said that Terren Steele was ahead 0:29:47.560 --> 0:29:48.120 of schedule. 0:29:48.920 --> 0:29:50.840 Okay, what's ahead of schedule, right? 0:29:51.880 --> 0:29:54.000 I mean you still got to go out and practice 0:29:54.040 --> 0:29:58.160 and be ready to start. So even if it's eight months, 0:29:58.600 --> 0:30:00.800 we can start, you know. Okay, he had the surgery 0:30:00.840 --> 0:30:05.280 the middle of December, let's start January. Eight months means 0:30:05.280 --> 0:30:09.080 the end of August, and does that mean that's when 0:30:09.120 --> 0:30:12.040 he gets to start practicing again? So I think that 0:30:12.200 --> 0:30:15.240 has to be resolved and then you've got to figure 0:30:15.280 --> 0:30:16.959 out where the rest of it is. 0:30:17.400 --> 0:30:17.680 Now. 0:30:18.360 --> 0:30:22.840 You signed Tuma Edoga a doga, but he's never been. 0:30:24.280 --> 0:30:27.760 They signed him to a one year veteran exception contract, 0:30:27.840 --> 0:30:31.840 which tells me he's a stopgap measure. 0:30:32.520 --> 0:30:37.600 The idea would be he's probably going to be a backup. Yeah, 0:30:37.880 --> 0:30:40.640 and he's in his career. He was a third round 0:30:40.720 --> 0:30:45.520 draft pick out of USC in twenty nineteen by the Jets, 0:30:46.080 --> 0:30:49.040 started eight games his rookie year, and then after that 0:30:49.120 --> 0:30:53.760 started four games and then no games in twenty twenty one, 0:30:53.840 --> 0:30:56.480 and was picked up by Atlanta last year and two games, 0:30:56.480 --> 0:30:59.040 one start. In his career twenty six games, thirteen starts. 0:30:59.400 --> 0:31:01.400 So he's not you're not going to sink your teeth, 0:31:01.440 --> 0:31:03.120 and he's playing tackle not guard. 0:31:03.280 --> 0:31:05.480 All right, so then you can't really use him the 0:31:05.520 --> 0:31:08.560 way you use McGovern. Can you use him as the fullback? 0:31:08.760 --> 0:31:12.400 Is he? Does he have that kount of a because 0:31:12.400 --> 0:31:14.040 you're going to have to have somebody do that. 0:31:14.240 --> 0:31:17.400 Why why do we have to have an offensive lineman 0:31:17.480 --> 0:31:17.800 do that? 0:31:18.080 --> 0:31:19.440 Yeah, that's what they're getting. 0:31:19.520 --> 0:31:22.280 Look at San Francisco, what they are they got use 0:31:22.400 --> 0:31:24.600 check at full back. They've used their tight ends in 0:31:24.640 --> 0:31:27.040 the blocking of the alignment. Yeah that's right. 0:31:27.120 --> 0:31:29.440 I mean, I mean, but he's big as a linement. 0:31:29.440 --> 0:31:29.680 He's not. 0:31:29.720 --> 0:31:32.720 All the Ravens guys, you just can't. 0:31:33.760 --> 0:31:36.640 They're just they're just so hard to find because they 0:31:36.680 --> 0:31:38.520 got college game doesn't use a full back. 0:31:38.640 --> 0:31:39.440 I got your answer. 0:31:39.480 --> 0:31:40.040 You got one. 0:31:41.840 --> 0:31:44.080 Get that Georgia tight end in here, and you're going 0:31:44.160 --> 0:31:47.520 to help your run game immensely. Okay, Darnell Washington. 0:31:47.560 --> 0:31:49.240 Do I have to take him in the first round? 0:31:49.280 --> 0:31:51.720 Yes, because he ain't getting out of the first round. 0:31:52.080 --> 0:31:52.960 So he's an athlete. 0:31:53.760 --> 0:31:56.120 I love it as long as but anyway, that's the 0:31:56.160 --> 0:31:56.920 best athlete. 0:31:57.160 --> 0:31:58.920 We need to get off on that right now. But 0:31:58.960 --> 0:31:59.600 I'm just sitting there. 0:31:59.720 --> 0:32:00.760 That's I'm sitting there. 0:32:01.040 --> 0:32:02.840 It is part of the equation. And I'm sitting there 0:32:02.880 --> 0:32:05.600 watching those playoff games last year and how they were 0:32:05.600 --> 0:32:07.640 having to trick it up in the run game and 0:32:07.680 --> 0:32:13.840 everything using offensive guards as fullbacks and h third tight ends. Well, 0:32:13.920 --> 0:32:17.080 just make your starting tight end Darnell Washington and then 0:32:17.120 --> 0:32:20.360 you can have even you can go eleven personnel and 0:32:20.440 --> 0:32:22.600 still be able to run the football with an extra 0:32:22.680 --> 0:32:23.840 offensive lineman there. 0:32:24.200 --> 0:32:26.120 Well, I'm sure he's not the only tight end that 0:32:26.200 --> 0:32:29.560 we can do that with coming out of the draft, because. 0:32:29.680 --> 0:32:32.040 He's got he's got the ability to catch the ball too. 0:32:35.240 --> 0:32:37.160 They are, but coming out of college, you got to 0:32:37.200 --> 0:32:37.760 watch him. 0:32:37.800 --> 0:32:41.960 So if you need to watch this, the Cowboys history, 0:32:43.080 --> 0:32:48.240 the first round tight ends, first round tight ends stops 0:32:48.280 --> 0:32:48.680 at two. 0:32:49.280 --> 0:32:52.640 Yeah, I don't look at him just as a tight end, okay, And. 0:32:52.720 --> 0:32:55.400 I don't look as the twenty sixth pick as a 0:32:55.440 --> 0:32:58.680 first round pick. Might as well back second. That's right 0:33:00.080 --> 0:33:01.120 in five picks here in the. 0:33:02.480 --> 0:33:04.560 Putting that draft board to can we take a guard? 0:33:08.440 --> 0:33:12.080 Can I round? Took took one last year? 0:33:12.160 --> 0:33:12.720 Second round? 0:33:12.720 --> 0:33:13.200 How long? 0:33:13.280 --> 0:33:16.040 How loo was it though? How was it twenty. 0:33:15.720 --> 0:33:16.800 Four last year? 0:33:17.360 --> 0:33:18.240 But he was a tackle? 0:33:18.320 --> 0:33:21.760 Yeah, he was an that can they find a tackle 0:33:21.800 --> 0:33:22.640 that can play guard? 0:33:23.400 --> 0:33:25.720 Yeah? You can. You keep letting you get that last word. 0:33:25.800 --> 0:33:26.160 I will. 0:33:27.720 --> 0:33:28.280 And uh. 0:33:28.680 --> 0:33:31.200 The other thing that's happened is Mike Solario is now 0:33:31.240 --> 0:33:36.479 your offensive line coach, right, h yeah, who was an 0:33:36.520 --> 0:33:41.440 assistant coach and an assistant offensive line coach when Everson 0:33:41.640 --> 0:33:42.280 was a Cowboy. 0:33:42.520 --> 0:33:45.840 That's crazy, oh man. 0:33:46.320 --> 0:33:48.440 So the last time they took a tight end in 0:33:48.480 --> 0:33:54.080 the first round was David Lafleur. They have you second round, 0:33:55.560 --> 0:33:58.360 and he was he wasn't as bad as people make 0:33:58.440 --> 0:34:00.320 him out to be, and he heard his bad act 0:34:00.480 --> 0:34:01.800 and he never was the same. 0:34:02.480 --> 0:34:04.160 Because I saw somebody did the. 0:34:04.080 --> 0:34:07.520 Cowboys five worst draft picks and they picked la Floor 0:34:07.640 --> 0:34:15.359 and he got hurt. He Shaunte Coller, Chante Carver, and 0:34:15.600 --> 0:34:17.800 Taco Charlton never were hurt. 0:34:19.480 --> 0:34:20.600 So Taco made the list. 0:34:20.920 --> 0:34:24.240 Oh yeah, so did Chante Carver. 0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:24.960 Right. 0:34:25.200 --> 0:34:32.960 And also, oh the linebacker the son of the running back. 0:34:32.760 --> 0:34:38.759 From Bobby car Okay, never let's get off, but but 0:34:39.200 --> 0:34:43.319 rabbit hole Billy Billy Joe Dupree was the other first 0:34:43.320 --> 0:34:46.120 one that was a great one. 0:34:47.000 --> 0:34:47.360 Okay. 0:34:48.160 --> 0:34:53.440 So we've talked about the problems with the run game, whatever, Okay, 0:34:53.760 --> 0:34:54.600 how do you fix it? 0:34:55.800 --> 0:35:00.439 Well, they didn't help it, by I mean, they helped 0:35:00.440 --> 0:35:03.360 the salary cap by letting Zeke go, but it didn't 0:35:03.360 --> 0:35:06.520 help the running game. So they got a they got another. 0:35:06.680 --> 0:35:09.120 They need another running back right now, I. 0:35:09.040 --> 0:35:11.240 Don't know clear that they're going to draft a running 0:35:11.280 --> 0:35:14.000 back at some point right the first or second day. 0:35:14.320 --> 0:35:17.120 Now. I had Clarence Hill on my show last night 0:35:17.200 --> 0:35:22.680 on CBS eleven, and I knew he being a Texas longhorn. 0:35:22.760 --> 0:35:25.360 I knew that we and I believe he's also the 0:35:25.440 --> 0:35:30.200 agent for b Jon Robinson, and I knew we were 0:35:30.239 --> 0:35:30.840 gonna get. 0:35:30.800 --> 0:35:37.719 Okay, we're gonna get everything about b Jeon Robinson on 0:35:37.719 --> 0:35:40.600 this show, and he delivered last night to the point 0:35:40.640 --> 0:35:46.160 that we started the show by basically fitting b Jon 0:35:46.320 --> 0:35:48.800 Robinson for his gold jacket. 0:35:49.160 --> 0:35:52.879 Okay, I think those words even came out of his mouth, 0:35:53.000 --> 0:35:56.440 something about a gold jacket. And so Bjeon Robinson, in 0:35:56.520 --> 0:36:00.840 Clarence Hill's estimation, might be the greatest running back in 0:36:00.880 --> 0:36:02.480 the history of football. 0:36:02.040 --> 0:36:04.480 Ever to be better than Earl Camps. 0:36:04.520 --> 0:36:07.200 So if that's the case, then he's not going to 0:36:07.239 --> 0:36:11.760 be there at number twenty six, right, But apparently people 0:36:12.040 --> 0:36:15.640 are thinking that they've devalued running backs to the point 0:36:15.719 --> 0:36:18.279 that the greatest running back of all time might still 0:36:18.320 --> 0:36:19.319 be there at twenty six. 0:36:19.719 --> 0:36:23.920 Doubt I mean money, No, I want to say that. 0:36:24.239 --> 0:36:29.520 So here's here's my deal. At twenty six. I don't 0:36:29.520 --> 0:36:32.640 have to have a running back, But who gives me 0:36:32.880 --> 0:36:37.840 the most juice? Like who gives me who's the best athlete? 0:36:38.719 --> 0:36:43.319 I went through it for Friday, and it's like I, 0:36:43.960 --> 0:36:49.520 as you know, everybody criticizes this team, but they don't 0:36:49.560 --> 0:36:54.000 have many walk in starter spots available. 0:36:55.200 --> 0:36:55.759 On this team. 0:36:55.800 --> 0:36:58.640 On this team, if you think about it, where. 0:36:58.480 --> 0:37:01.400 Are they right now? What are the walk in starters? 0:37:01.960 --> 0:37:04.920 And I look at running back as being a tandem. 0:37:04.760 --> 0:37:06.920 Right I do too. So there's a spot. 0:37:07.000 --> 0:37:08.399 There's a spot at running back. 0:37:08.800 --> 0:37:11.520 There's a spot at tight end quarterback. There's a spot 0:37:11.520 --> 0:37:12.200 at tight end. 0:37:12.239 --> 0:37:15.560 But I can get by with the two guys I got, 0:37:15.600 --> 0:37:16.799 but I need one. 0:37:17.320 --> 0:37:19.040 On the spot at that. You could use a walk 0:37:19.080 --> 0:37:20.480 in starter. At left guard, I. 0:37:20.400 --> 0:37:26.839 Can use an offensive lineman somehow ways. Defensive end, you're 0:37:26.880 --> 0:37:29.440 gonna have to be pretty good to overtake, you know, 0:37:29.520 --> 0:37:32.200 But they use a rotation there, so I could a 0:37:32.239 --> 0:37:34.920 guy can But he's gonna have to jump like Sam 0:37:34.960 --> 0:37:40.319 Williams or Dorence Armstrong. I about linebacker, I say linebacker, linebacker, 0:37:40.480 --> 0:37:43.480 I say linebacker. There is a spot depending on what 0:37:43.560 --> 0:37:47.480 you do with the young Michael Parsons, right, because if 0:37:47.480 --> 0:37:47.799 you're not. 0:37:48.080 --> 0:37:50.640 Well, look at this last year. I mean, you've go 0:37:50.680 --> 0:37:54.560 Anthony Barr started ten games, it had over six hundred 0:37:54.600 --> 0:37:56.560 snaps and that has not been replaced. 0:37:56.960 --> 0:38:02.640 You've got Damon Clark, but he's not He's not what 0:38:02.719 --> 0:38:03.840 Anthony Barr was. 0:38:04.440 --> 0:38:06.239 But you cant have issues at linebacker. 0:38:06.280 --> 0:38:10.880 You could have Parsons, vander esh and Damon Clark. 0:38:11.040 --> 0:38:13.840 I can I could play that, yes, okay. 0:38:13.560 --> 0:38:16.399 But you can. You can if there is a linebacker 0:38:16.440 --> 0:38:19.800 that you want to take. Even at twenty six, there's 0:38:19.880 --> 0:38:24.280 a spot. There's a playing role for him, a role, yes, yes, 0:38:24.800 --> 0:38:28.160 where he could actually start half the games, okay, depending. 0:38:27.760 --> 0:38:33.880 On what cornerback. Well, Gilmore replaced Anthony Brown. 0:38:34.160 --> 0:38:37.160 Right now, what do you do at the slot? Is 0:38:37.239 --> 0:38:39.040 Jordan Lewis good to go? 0:38:39.120 --> 0:38:40.439 But he's on a one year deal. 0:38:41.200 --> 0:38:44.600 Uh and Drayon's on a one year deal and Gilmore's 0:38:44.640 --> 0:38:45.640 got two left. 0:38:48.719 --> 0:38:49.359 One okay? 0:38:49.400 --> 0:38:53.080 Yeah, but just just like a wide regardless. You just 0:38:53.120 --> 0:38:54.680 becssed this year though, this coming. 0:38:54.520 --> 0:38:56.920 Out doron Jordan Lewis. 0:38:56.960 --> 0:38:58.719 So if I get a corner, he's going to have 0:38:58.760 --> 0:39:01.600 to beat out one of those those two guys. 0:39:01.719 --> 0:39:03.480 I wouldn't I wouldn't take a call, so you wouldn't 0:39:03.480 --> 0:39:05.040 take I would not take not in the first I 0:39:05.040 --> 0:39:05.600 would take a. 0:39:05.520 --> 0:39:09.040 Linebacker and then safety. You're not doing that. 0:39:09.920 --> 0:39:12.400 I think the Cowboys in their history have only taken 0:39:13.480 --> 0:39:15.520 one safety after. 0:39:16.920 --> 0:39:17.960 Mel renfro Plus. 0:39:18.000 --> 0:39:20.560 We look, we're good there. Yeah, we're good there. Regardless 0:39:20.560 --> 0:39:22.280 of if someone's available. 0:39:21.880 --> 0:39:24.160 You got good. You got four guys to pit. 0:39:24.400 --> 0:39:27.560 Yes, So if you look at the amount of walk 0:39:27.640 --> 0:39:31.640 in Day one starting positions, they don't have that many. 0:39:33.120 --> 0:39:37.359 So to me, when you get to twenty sixth, it 0:39:37.400 --> 0:39:40.600 doesn't matter the position. I can't go into this draft 0:39:40.600 --> 0:39:43.359 and saying I need a guard or I need a 0:39:43.440 --> 0:39:47.960 tight end. I need that player that's awfully good. And 0:39:48.040 --> 0:39:54.600 I've got linebacker, I've got running back, tight end maybe, 0:39:55.480 --> 0:39:57.920 I mean, who knows wide receiver? 0:39:58.160 --> 0:40:01.880 I don't know. Yes, I just need some juice. 0:40:02.719 --> 0:40:04.759 Yeah, I mean if there's a wide receipt, yes, I 0:40:04.760 --> 0:40:10.279 mean you got your guys you can play. But if 0:40:10.280 --> 0:40:12.160 he's good enough, he's gonna play right. 0:40:12.200 --> 0:40:17.239 And he better be really good. Well, there's there's they 0:40:17.239 --> 0:40:19.040 can come in start for us. 0:40:19.080 --> 0:40:21.799 Michael Gallup's got to return to being Michael. 0:40:22.120 --> 0:40:24.080 I'm not thinking about Michael. We just we just signed 0:40:24.120 --> 0:40:25.399 Brandon What about him? 0:40:25.880 --> 0:40:28.920 Oh No, I'm good with Cooks and I'm good with. 0:40:29.560 --> 0:40:34.320 CD Who's Bill made a point before he started the show. 0:40:34.760 --> 0:40:38.880 They haven't replaced the past catching ability of Amari Cooper. 0:40:40.040 --> 0:40:41.320 If there's one of those. 0:40:41.280 --> 0:40:44.440 Well, Brandon Cooks is the guy right now that that 0:40:44.560 --> 0:40:45.520 has to be that guy. 0:40:45.800 --> 0:40:48.399 That's the way I see it. But I say, we don't. 0:40:48.640 --> 0:40:52.120 But you're not in regards to the draft. You're not 0:40:52.480 --> 0:40:53.960 drafting just for this year. 0:40:54.000 --> 0:40:54.399 That's right. 0:40:54.520 --> 0:40:57.560 You've got to look at where is your roster next year, 0:40:57.680 --> 0:40:59.600 the year after, the year after, especially in the first round. 0:40:59.600 --> 0:41:03.279 You're looking at five years and for instance, get back 0:41:03.280 --> 0:41:05.880 to the running backs. I think, and this is a 0:41:06.640 --> 0:41:08.840 some people might think this is a crazy thought. But 0:41:08.920 --> 0:41:12.320 I sat there and I looked at Ezekiel Elliott last year. 0:41:12.600 --> 0:41:15.319 I'm looking at video of him. I went back and 0:41:15.360 --> 0:41:20.200 looked at him coming out of the draft. Man Ezekiel 0:41:20.239 --> 0:41:25.239 Elliott at Ohio State was unbelievable. The power with which 0:41:25.239 --> 0:41:28.640 he ran the football and the speed and everything. I mean, 0:41:29.560 --> 0:41:31.840 that's there's a reason he was the fourth pick in 0:41:31.880 --> 0:41:35.399 the draft. And I was not going to get into 0:41:35.440 --> 0:41:37.920 this with Clarence last night on the show. I just 0:41:37.960 --> 0:41:40.680 wanted to let him be his Bjeon guy whatever. And 0:41:40.719 --> 0:41:43.920 I love everything about Bijeon, as far as his makeup 0:41:43.960 --> 0:41:50.440 and all that. Ezekiel Elliott. If Ezekiel Elliott in twenty sixteen, 0:41:50.680 --> 0:41:53.200 if Bejean was in the same draft, I'd take Ezekiel Elliott. 0:41:53.400 --> 0:41:55.200 And I went back and looked at him last year 0:41:55.440 --> 0:42:00.080 and I don't think. I think for this year, Zeke 0:42:00.200 --> 0:42:05.000 Elliott would be more productive on this team than anybody 0:42:05.000 --> 0:42:05.720 in that draft. 0:42:06.200 --> 0:42:06.560 I won't. 0:42:06.680 --> 0:42:07.600 I want him back. 0:42:07.920 --> 0:42:11.799 So here's the bottom line on him. If his base 0:42:11.880 --> 0:42:15.280 salary was five million dollars, he'd be here. They based 0:42:15.280 --> 0:42:20.040 the whole thing on ten point right, everyone, And and 0:42:20.080 --> 0:42:23.640 they say they didn't want to insult him with a 0:42:23.680 --> 0:42:28.359 low offer. As Michael Irvin taught me once, guys will 0:42:28.400 --> 0:42:31.279 take a pay cut in someone else's locker room, but 0:42:31.400 --> 0:42:31.920 not their. 0:42:31.800 --> 0:42:32.640 Own, right, right. 0:42:34.160 --> 0:42:38.919 But you're right on Zeke, And I still think if 0:42:38.960 --> 0:42:41.440 you get through the draft and you're in May and 0:42:41.520 --> 0:42:45.000 you didn't get the running back you wanted three million. 0:42:46.080 --> 0:42:46.439 That guy. 0:42:46.520 --> 0:42:48.879 I would be constantly on the phone with him if 0:42:48.920 --> 0:42:49.960 I'm management, saying. 0:42:49.800 --> 0:42:52.360 Hey, you stay in shape, and I don't because you 0:42:52.520 --> 0:42:54.560 never know what's going to happen after this draft. 0:42:54.719 --> 0:42:57.120 I don't care that Zeke's not a home run threat. 0:42:57.239 --> 0:42:59.520 That's not that's not what he is. That's not what 0:42:59.640 --> 0:43:03.200 Emmett was. I want the guy who can push a pile. 0:43:03.480 --> 0:43:06.600 I want the guy who Against San Francisco in the 0:43:06.640 --> 0:43:09.239 playoff game, they were tricking it up, trying to figure 0:43:09.239 --> 0:43:11.200 out how we're going to get this one yard and 0:43:11.200 --> 0:43:13.640 they line up Zeke right up next to the offense, 0:43:14.200 --> 0:43:16.440 right up behind the right guard, and they got pollared 0:43:16.480 --> 0:43:18.959 in the backfield. They're doing all this deception. They hand 0:43:19.000 --> 0:43:22.080 the ball to Zeke and it's a run blitz and 0:43:22.120 --> 0:43:25.080 he gets hit in the backfield two yards behind the 0:43:25.120 --> 0:43:28.799 line of scrimmage, and somehow, some way, Zeke Elliott is 0:43:28.880 --> 0:43:31.439 able to lunge forward and get the first down. 0:43:31.480 --> 0:43:32.080 I remember that. 0:43:32.160 --> 0:43:34.759 All I know is I'm like, you've got to reach 0:43:34.840 --> 0:43:36.200 and they want to get rid of this guy. You 0:43:36.280 --> 0:43:40.160 got to replace his twelve touchdowns yep, seven of which 0:43:40.440 --> 0:43:41.800 were one Ard runs. 0:43:42.280 --> 0:43:43.239 We pointed that out. 0:43:44.000 --> 0:43:49.840 Also, he was twelve of fourteen on third and one. 0:43:50.000 --> 0:43:51.360 You got to have that, right. 0:43:51.360 --> 0:43:52.359 We don't have that now. 0:43:53.160 --> 0:43:55.520 And he wasn't lumbering. 0:43:55.560 --> 0:43:59.480 I get tired of hearing three point eight yards of carry, 0:43:59.600 --> 0:44:02.319 all right, it's what they asked. 0:44:02.000 --> 0:44:03.640 Him to do. He did. 0:44:03.800 --> 0:44:06.440 And by the way, before the Terrance Steel injury, he 0:44:06.480 --> 0:44:08.919 was averaging four point three yards per Carrie, right, which 0:44:08.960 --> 0:44:12.080 is right near his career average at four point four, 0:44:12.120 --> 0:44:15.400 which is what Emmett averaged in his career. 0:44:15.480 --> 0:44:18.480 So, and let me also point out on this running 0:44:18.520 --> 0:44:22.440 back thing, you said, this draft is not all about 0:44:22.920 --> 0:44:25.719 this year. You got to worry about twenty twenty four. Right, 0:44:26.480 --> 0:44:29.200 Who's your running back in twenty twenty four? Because you 0:44:29.239 --> 0:44:32.120 didn't want to extend Tony Pollard, you gave him the 0:44:32.160 --> 0:44:35.680 franchise tag, right, Well, are you going to sign him 0:44:35.680 --> 0:44:38.040 to a long term deal after this year or do 0:44:38.120 --> 0:44:40.000 you need another running That is why? 0:44:41.360 --> 0:44:44.759 How about this hot sports opinion, That is why if 0:44:44.800 --> 0:44:48.160 you were able to sign Zeke right now at something 0:44:48.200 --> 0:44:51.200 that fits in your salary cap, I would do that 0:44:51.800 --> 0:44:54.319 and I would take a running back at number twenty six. 0:44:54.400 --> 0:44:56.719 If B Jhon Robinson was at number twenty six, I'd 0:44:56.719 --> 0:45:00.680 take him, and even if I signed even had Zeke 0:45:00.760 --> 0:45:04.120 on this roster because of not only what he could 0:45:04.120 --> 0:45:06.600 do this year, but he's going to be your lead 0:45:06.680 --> 0:45:07.759 dog maybe next year. 0:45:08.000 --> 0:45:11.440 Guys, we have seen running backs come from nowhere on 0:45:11.560 --> 0:45:13.479 some very good teams and. 0:45:13.400 --> 0:45:15.760 They no one talked about them before the draft. 0:45:16.280 --> 0:45:19.400 Every year there's a running back that we never heard 0:45:19.440 --> 0:45:22.680 of with a team that's getting off and we never 0:45:22.719 --> 0:45:24.240 talked about him before the draft. 0:45:24.560 --> 0:45:26.320 There are still going to be some running backs. 0:45:26.120 --> 0:45:28.799 Out there that will fit what the Cowboys are trying 0:45:28.800 --> 0:45:32.280 to do. But to me, I think if you already 0:45:32.400 --> 0:45:37.120 have that guy, meaning Ezekiel Elliott, I would hope he 0:45:37.160 --> 0:45:40.120 would come back. I am hoping. I've been saying that since. 0:45:40.160 --> 0:45:41.439 I don't think he wants to leave. 0:45:41.680 --> 0:45:44.239 I don't either. No one's picked him up yet, right. 0:45:44.360 --> 0:45:48.440 No market running is not out there, no no. And 0:45:48.480 --> 0:45:51.400 it's that it has nothing to do with Zeke's performance. 0:45:51.480 --> 0:45:55.319 It's teams aren't paying running backs basically, what they're just 0:45:55.440 --> 0:45:57.440 looking what everyone's gotten. 0:45:57.239 --> 0:46:00.359 There signing guys one year one year, and you don't 0:46:00.480 --> 0:46:02.120 give him a whole bunch of money. 0:46:02.200 --> 0:46:06.400 If Zeke were to come back here at the economical 0:46:06.480 --> 0:46:09.400 rate whatever it is, he could make more in marketing 0:46:10.080 --> 0:46:11.280 endorsements than. 0:46:11.960 --> 0:46:14.400 And he doesn't have to move, he doesn't have to 0:46:14.480 --> 0:46:15.680 pay state income tax. 0:46:15.840 --> 0:46:18.760 And you have the familiarity between he and the team, 0:46:19.080 --> 0:46:21.200 the quarterback, the coach, but he knows. 0:46:21.080 --> 0:46:24.000 The whole There would be a standing ovation in that 0:46:24.040 --> 0:46:24.640 locker room. 0:46:24.680 --> 0:46:28.680 But he came back for this team. Right now, I 0:46:28.719 --> 0:46:31.680 can't find a running back in this draft who can 0:46:31.719 --> 0:46:34.520 get the dirty yards that Zeke Elliott. 0:46:34.680 --> 0:46:36.279 We don't have well right now, we don't have it 0:46:36.320 --> 0:46:38.839 on the team as well. And having said that, what 0:46:38.920 --> 0:46:40.000 is how is Tony doing? 0:46:41.080 --> 0:46:42.800 Which is the other. 0:46:43.239 --> 0:46:45.920 Right, that's the main thing. How was he going to be? 0:46:46.239 --> 0:46:47.439 Yeah? Is he the same guy? 0:46:47.600 --> 0:46:47.799 Yes? 0:46:48.040 --> 0:46:50.200 All right, we need to take a break. Okay, all right, 0:46:50.239 --> 0:46:52.239 take a break. We got more in a moment. 0:46:56.120 --> 0:46:57.240 We paid how much. 0:46:57.040 --> 0:46:57.880 For those lessons? 0:46:58.600 --> 0:46:59.480 She's doing great? 0:47:00.160 --> 0:47:02.960 Yeah, totally.
