Two months Yeah, well, yeah, 23 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: roughly right. You're excited about this training camp? Seven weeks? 24 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 1: Absolutely all right? You enjoy all that because it's already 25 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: a hundred degrees out, Yes, exactly, start right there. Yeah, 26 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: Mickey's minutes a training camp were hard to come up, 27 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: come by because he was so happy out there. I 28 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: know he was. Yeah, bring those back well because I 29 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: didn't have to read the durned paper every morning. Yeah, 30 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: oh yeah, life just goes by a little slower for 31 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: a newspaper man. That's a hard thing to do, right, Well, 32 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: there's a lot of stuff in this world. Yeah, there 33 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: is about that. Yeah, well, that's why we have the 34 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: joy of talking about Cowboys. And it's exciting it's going 35 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: on out here. And the first thing I want to 36 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: ask you guys, because we've got a lot to get into, 37 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: is this the making of a dangerous Cowboys defense? And 38 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: I pose that question to my lovely panel here because 39 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: of what I saw at OTAs. We were all fortunate 40 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: to see DeMarcus Lawrence get the tag, his attitude toward it. 41 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: You know he's talking, I'm not the normal guy here 42 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: in this situation. We have a fully healthy Jalen Smith, 43 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: Byron Jones fully at cornerback. We've talked extensively about what 44 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: Chris Richard can possibly do with this young secondary. You 45 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: have the undrafted Cam Kelly making a little bit of 46 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: a splash there, Sean Lee being smart taking a second 47 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: to not just jump into Ota, saving his body. So 48 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: that's why I wanted to get you guys to discuss 49 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: this at least because I think there's something that all 50 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: fans are excited about. Is this something you can hold 51 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: on to. It's a great discussion point. I like that because, um, 52 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: I think you can look at certain spots on the 53 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: defense and say this might be the deepest we've seen 54 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: under Rod Marinelli. I'm looking at the defensive line and 55 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: maybe that pass rush rotation and say, wow, you know, 56 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: if Lawrence Armstrong fourth round pick, can develop, Cony Eely 57 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: steps in. Rod's always liked a big rotation, But maybe 58 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: this is a group with Lawrence coming on as a 59 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl guy, this might be the best pass Russian 60 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: group he's had since he came here In twenty thirteen, 61 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: fourteen came here with Ryan after rob Ryan after Yeah, Yeah, 62 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: I'm this is gonna sound weird, but I'm gonna the rotation. 63 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: I it might this defense might come down to what 64 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: do they do? What do they figure out a defensive tackle? 65 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: And I saw some good things from jahad Ward and 66 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: I and I and I mean this in a positive 67 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: way of movement, strength, being difficult to block. Again, it's 68 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: different when you have pads on. He might just go 69 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: by the wayside and we get to Yeah. But you know, 70 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: if you for a team looking for defensive tackle help, 71 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: this jihad Ward trade might have might pan out for 72 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: these guys. If if you weren't going to do anything 73 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: with Ryan Switzer, you know, if you had an idea 74 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: of plans for other things, or and you said, I mean, 75 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: we're not gonna anything Ryan Switzer, We'll just move off 76 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: from him. But to get jihad Ward, if in fact 77 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: he comes in, I would not be surprised if jihad 78 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: Ward push his first starting role here. I really really wouldn't. 79 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: I think there's that tight he's got that kind of ability. 80 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: I think he's you know, if you're depending on what's 81 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: happened with Collins and his foot. You're gonna see plenty 82 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 1: of Jihad Ward and I'm really I'm fascinated by I 83 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: didn't seeing him on tape was different for me than 84 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: seeing him live and seeing him move around in his size, 85 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: his physical size. I just I'm kind of throwing that 86 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: out there as a guy that that might make a difference, 87 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: one of those trades that might actually work out for 88 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 1: this football team. They need him to make a difference, 89 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: because if you look at that defensive line rotation at 90 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: tackle during that Ota practice, you're sitting there and going, hmm, 91 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: there's no Collins, David Irving right right right, and you're 92 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: going and you're looking at the second team guys, and 93 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: it's Ash and Brian Price, Price, and although they kind 94 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: of like Price, yeah, brought him back, but nothing Dayton Jones. Yeah, 95 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: Dayton Jones was working with the first team exactly. A 96 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: guy's missing, and it's like, I don't know, but you're 97 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: count Onmolee coming back healthy. Well, you're counting on David 98 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: Irving getting in joy Healthy's a kind of you were 99 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: counting on it, and but you still got to have 100 00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: another defensive tackle to start, Yeah, and and and you 101 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: know we'll see about all these defensive ends. I know 102 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: there's a lot of optimism out there with these guys, 103 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: but we got to see and I think you saying 104 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: that Jalen Smith's one hundred percent healthy, maybe of tad optimistic. 105 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: Also we got to see it when the pads come on. 106 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: And then how quickly vander Esh is able to read 107 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: into her. I read into her comment is the no brace, 108 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: which makes me feel like that at least they feel 109 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: comfortable enough health wise that that they, Hey, he doesn't 110 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: need to play with the brace. Okay, now we'll see 111 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: how well now play? And now now to your point, 112 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: is okay, the thing I noticed and I'm sorry if 113 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: I'm shifting away from the defensive line, but I know 114 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: these okay. With Vanderesh, I didn't see Vanderesh in the 115 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: one time we got to see him play. I didn't 116 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: see him move from the middle. I didn't see him. 117 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: He was primarily a So okay is it? And OTA's 118 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: it's real easy to move guys around just to see 119 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 1: how they look. Jalen Smith was the one guy that 120 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: kind of moved around a little bit. And and maybe 121 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: that's something that we're going to read into when we 122 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: get to Oxnard that Okay, they're gonna play Jalen Smith 123 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: at some other position. Yeah, he could play mike linebacker. 124 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: But use of these guys, they'll kind of the rookie guy. 125 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: They'll say, Okay, let's see if he can play this. 126 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: Let's see if he could play this. Let's see if 127 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: he can play this. Yeah, And it looked like to 128 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: me that they were kept. They were keeping Layton vander 129 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: Eshes at mike linebacker. So to the point about Jalen Smith, 130 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: if he could play without the brace, give you something 131 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: as one of the other linebackers, whether it's the mic, 132 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: the sam wherever he has to play. Yeah, I mean, 133 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: you know, now your defense is getting back. I don't 134 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: I don't think he'll ever be as good as he 135 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: was at Notre Dame. But I think he'll be better 136 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: than he was last year. I do believe that. I'm assuming, 137 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: but I'm just gonna ask questions. You guys are all 138 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: good with Sean Lee just taking this rest? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 139 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: save him from himself, save him from himself. That's right. 140 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: At and we talked. I talked to him for a 141 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: while with some other reporters. He's still out there. He's 142 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: out there. He says he's feeling good, but you know, 143 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: that hamstring. They're focused on what they can do stretching wise, 144 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: and just different things they can do to try to 145 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: keep that thing healthy and long term, you know, because 146 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: it has been an issue for him, and it was 147 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: an issue for him multiple times last year. So yeah, 148 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: no reason to push it for him. I think it's 149 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: a normal routine for him this time of year. But 150 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: at the same time, they're mindful of that hamstring. You 151 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: know what, It's almost a blessing because they don't need 152 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,719 Speaker 1: him out there. Yeah, Joe Thomas gets to work and 153 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: they get there. You go, yeah, weak side because you 154 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: still need a backup. And I think when you mentioned 155 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 1: vander esh they kept him a middle linebacker, but I 156 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: don't know that you want to overload the rookie right away. Yeah, 157 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: and so that gives him moving around though, Oh he 158 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 1: I mean it will be I'll make the prediction right now. 159 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 1: It will be on the Nickel defense. Oh no, that's 160 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: that's very It was. Best traits is his ability to coverage, 161 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: and I noticed because he can get he can then 162 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: he notices where the ball is aware and drive on it. 163 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: Not to break it up, but drive on it to 164 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: make a tackle. Right plan, Playing Mike makes the most 165 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: sense because they believe he can play Mike or Will Well. 166 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: That's that's Sean Lee's spot. And when you hear team 167 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: officials talk about who he can be, it's yeah, it's 168 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: a Brian er Lacker type. It's a relatable comparison. Yeah, 169 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: Orlando McLean a guy because you gotta have a guy 170 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: in the middle who can cover a just uh, come 171 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: up and tackle, cover a lot of ground and he's 172 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: able to. You've talked about that. His movement is probably 173 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: his best side. They've targeted him as a guy clearly 174 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: that has that ability to, like Mickey said, to play 175 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: in those sub packages where it's drop, read, react, get 176 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: to the football, because he could do all that for 177 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: a for a long guy, he's got some ability to turn. 178 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: Usually with long leg or limbed players, it takes them 179 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: time to turn to get everything going the right direction. 180 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: With him, it's very quick and the way he gets 181 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: going and I think that's one of the traits that 182 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: they really really liked about him. I mentioned mentioned Joe 183 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: Thomas again, I like, I appreciate you doing that though 184 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: I think the will linebacker stuff that he showed some 185 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 1: stuff because he was a middle linebacker with Green Bay. 186 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: But he's got some of the traits that you see 187 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: with mobility wise and things. They used some things with 188 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: him and the nickel playing with him and Vander Eshens 189 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: and as those guys and I saw, I saw some 190 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: good things with him as far as the read, the reaction, 191 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: getting to the football, the ability to run. Uh. You 192 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: know there were some times at Green Bay where you 193 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: watched and play where he didn't have that kind those 194 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 1: kinds of traits. Uh, you know, got caught in some 195 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: coverage Carolina game I thought was really good for him 196 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: as far as some of the coverage things, you know, 197 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: having to deal with some of their packages out of 198 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: the backfield. But you know this, this might be another 199 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: one of those gets that the pro guys had a guy, 200 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 1: had a guy in mind, and they said, Okay, hey, 201 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: inexpensive guy, let's go get him. Uh, just some of 202 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: the some positive things about him early in this camp. 203 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 1: I think from an athletic standpoint, they're better at linebacker 204 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: with this group. Yes, from a depth standpoint, because that 205 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: was a concern, right, huge concern and huge concern. You 206 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: know Durant couldn't stay healthy and he was at the 207 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: end of his career, and then you really after that 208 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,559 Speaker 1: were you didn't have much. Yeah, we're really not even 209 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: talk Yeah, we're not talking about we're not even talking 210 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: about Damian Wilson, who was a starter, and we're not 211 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,559 Speaker 1: even talking about Covington yet, right, you know? And at 212 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: Indiana and it certainly looks the party. He sure does 213 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: and so good Bill. That's the thing about it is 214 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: can they can? They did? They? Did? They help this 215 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: linebacker crew enough with the guys they've added, and do 216 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: they gonna put guys in the right spot? I think 217 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: that they they have a plan for how they want 218 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: to play it. Let's hope that all the health holds up. 219 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: I'm I'm for Shaun Lee at training camp. He could 220 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: stand next to me all day. Just let him coach, Yeah, 221 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: him to slip board. I really don't need to do 222 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 1: a good job now, Seriously, I don't need any wear 223 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: and tear on Shawn Lee. I don't need those practices. 224 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: As we've seen those practices can be pretty physical with 225 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: Garrett in that bunch and I and I'm okay with 226 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: just letting Seaun Lee save some wear and tear on 227 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: his body. I don't think, Sean, you have to worry 228 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: about shun Lee having rusted. I asked him what that 229 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 1: conversation is like every year. It was kind of like 230 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: when Witten was here, was like the trainers talk to him, 231 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: the coaches talk to him, and he fights him at first, 232 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: and then it's like, all right, I get it. This 233 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: is better. Yeah, he feels like he needs to be 234 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: out his voice needs to be out there. He needs 235 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: to be leading from the front, is what he said. 236 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: But look, it's may you know, let's get him ready 237 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,959 Speaker 1: for August and said, well, well too, Yeah, I think 238 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: September being September being the most important thing we've seen. 239 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's been documented by our show. And again, 240 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: you don't need some former scout telling you. You watch 241 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 1: the games he doesn't play. They're not as good on defense. 242 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: Whatever you can do to let him play the forty 243 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: fifty sixty snaps a game, do it. Whatever you have 244 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: to do. Go that route, saying I still think there's 245 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: a question mark at right corner and the slot. Yeah, 246 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: we're going to move. I'm not just saying Byron Jones 247 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: is over there, and that's he's got it and that 248 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 1: makes him better. You're not giving up that fight. Well, 249 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: there are there are questions about all this. I appreciate 250 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: you saying that though. I mean, he's he's done some 251 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: good things over there. I've seen his ability to kind 252 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: of shadow the receiver a little bit better. But again, 253 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: he hasn't played over there. He hasn't done that but 254 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 1: four games he started his rookie year. So let's see 255 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: what he can do and how that affects who goes 256 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: in the slot, because what if he it doesn't work? 257 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: Is Anthony Brown out there? You know? Is Jordan Lewis 258 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: out there? And who's in the slot? Yeah? What do 259 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: you think is Byron Jones's best trait from what you've seen? Well, 260 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: I mean he's he's got great athletic ability. Now does 261 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 1: he have the football acumen to be able to play 262 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: that corner? To know how? And I think that's what 263 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: he's got to prove otherwise he's back to safety. Yeah, 264 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: And then you saying, Okay, well I don't have to 265 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: worry about my safety depth and I'll go back and 266 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: I'll go to my graves saying no one ever finished 267 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: the season and said, you know, we didn't win the 268 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: Super Bowl because of my safety. Give me a break. Well, 269 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: the Saints take care of that middle the front and 270 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: take care of those foreigners. Saints lost an NFC Divisional 271 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: game because well, just because he didn't make one tackle, 272 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: they lost that game. Did you like, Yeah, it's true. 273 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: Did you like like the Byron Jones coverage on Deonte 274 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: Thompson last week and the deep ball down the left sideline, 275 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: the catch up speed breaking it up at the end 276 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: of the Yeah, I didn't was impressive play. It sounds 277 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: like it impressed you rom it did it? I mean 278 00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: it showed his He used his size and use that 279 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: closing speed because he has great speed. So I think 280 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: there's potential there. I'm putting trust in Chris Richard knowing 281 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: what he needs to fit his scheme. So we'll see 282 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: what happens. But Bryan's talked about it. Look, you got 283 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: to figure out what he is at something. Yeah, forty 284 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: eight games, we're trying to figure that out. I think 285 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: that the trait that might get him in the most 286 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: trouble is how aggressive he is, like biting on stuff. 287 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 1: Well I not bity, but how physical he plays at 288 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: the line. Because there were a couple of times last 289 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: week where the officials throw holding flags on him because 290 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: he's a jam jam jam. Okay, we're at seven yards. 291 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: I'm still trying. I thought one time he got called 292 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: for hands in the face because he was fighting, you know, 293 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: he was fighting with Michael Gallop down the sidelines and 294 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: Gallup was trying to shake him and he couldn't shake him. 295 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: And then the referee throws the flag and now the 296 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: ball went to the other side of the field, and 297 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, when what happened there? And I'm like, I 298 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: see the official, Oh, he's given it the defensive holding 299 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: sign and pointing, you know, towards Byron and I'm going, okay, 300 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: this is where Byron Jones could get in trouble. It 301 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: turns into he's struggling a little bit with his technique, 302 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: and now it's like, okay, I'm just gonna turn this 303 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: into a fist fight, you know, And you'd think of 304 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: Byron Jones, you don't think a fist fight, but he'll 305 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: play with some physicality on along the line of scrimmage. 306 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: I think of Byron Jones, I think physical. I mean, 307 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: you've seen some of his amazing hits. Yeah, that's what 308 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: I'm saying, I mean, you could, but I think that's 309 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: the one thing. It might be a strength of his 310 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: a trait. I like what Mickey was saying though about 311 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: And Mickey's absolutely right about questioning you know that move 312 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: because we're you know, let's see it and I and 313 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm usually the I'm usually the okay, let's I'm me personally, 314 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: I am very surprised they moved him. I really really am. 315 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: But that just shows you the influence that Chris rap 316 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 1: Shard has on this group. Now, it's funny what you 317 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: said about being overly aggressive and Christopher Shard, what did 318 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: he say a couple of weeks ago about what he 319 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: likes his bigger corners to dogs disrupted the line of scrimmage. Yeah, 320 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: and that's Byron Jones can do that, So you gotta 321 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: harness it and follow your technique, right. Yeah, that's the 322 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: thing about it is, And they changed my understanding is 323 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: the technique they want the corners playing on which hip 324 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: which you have to play? Yeah, that was stut on 325 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 1: your point, and they thought that he would be more 326 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: conducive to playing that way than way they used to 327 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 1: play it. So, but I think that's what we'll see. 328 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: That's why I keep saying this training camp is going 329 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 1: to be one of the more interesting ones we've covered 330 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: in quite some time, because there's a bunch of stuff 331 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: where you think it's pretty good, but it's kind of 332 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: we'll see. Let me ask you this. You're gonna ask 333 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 1: the question, what do you mean the question about the 334 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: second they're about the corners? What if I think the 335 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: position depth is to me, okay, do you think is 336 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: the best position on the roster? Yeah, do you think 337 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: it's the best. Do you think the corner backs as 338 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,159 Speaker 1: a group are the best? Is the best position on 339 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: this roster? Okay? Okay? Offensive line? I was I was 340 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: gonna say, give me, give me okay, Jack Martin and okay, okay, 341 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: give me Ezekiel and Ezekiel Elliott zeks. I know what 342 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: you're saying. Though. There's a lot of bodies there now, 343 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,640 Speaker 1: and it's a lot of young talent, right, multiple talent. Well, 344 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: I think what's gonna happen is they're gonna end up 345 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: cutting somebody that can make a roster because I could 346 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: do Thomas or something like that, Marquez White, marquess him. No, 347 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: I'm not saying cut. Let's not forget him. No, no, 348 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,400 Speaker 1: I have talking about rookie. I haven't forgot I haven't 349 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: forgot him at all, because I think he's a perfect 350 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: fit for what and and actually it seems all length, yeah, 351 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 1: and it kind of feels like that they're they're kind 352 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: of pushing him into some roles and taking Jordan Lewis 353 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: in another direction. Jordan Lewis is like, guys, I ain't 354 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: going away. You might put me on the second team 355 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: at left corner, and you might put me in the slot, 356 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: and I'm not going away. So that that, yeah, I 357 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: just kind of feel like it's the way that they're 358 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: playing Jordan Lewis. Jordan Lewis went from a what fourteen 359 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: game starter basically to being a guy that all of 360 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: a sudden, now is we're gonna move a safety. We're 361 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: gonna play him at right corner, and Jordan Lewis, you 362 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 1: get to play left corner and you're in a backup 363 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,959 Speaker 1: And and by the way, Jordan Lewis, you don't even 364 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: get to play in the slot with the first unit. 365 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: Anthony Anthony Brown, We're gonna put you in the slot. 366 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: He's not he's not the prototypical size corner though, right. 367 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: I mean he might be one of the best players 368 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: they have. Richards says, he's the exception to the rule because, 369 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,439 Speaker 1: like Tay said, he's a force. He's physical, he'll battle 370 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: you even though he's five ten, one seventy five. Oh 371 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: he did that Scholtz ball goes up and then side. 372 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: What does he do? He goes with him. One of 373 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: my favorite things I learned last week about the cornerbacks 374 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: and I guess the dbs in whole. They did a 375 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 1: lot of exercises at gymnastics gyms over the off season. Wow, 376 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 1: that was the first I had heard of it. That 377 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 1: every week they were doing different gymnastics training. Wow, double 378 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: flips on the high, double flips, whatever it takes. Knock 379 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: the ball from Leo Jones there in weeks six. But 380 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 1: I would love to see exactly what they're doing. But 381 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: apparently they all went together. You know, they're pretty close, 382 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: all these young dbs, they're very close. So you're talking 383 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: about the Jordan Lewis. Those guys think they're competitive. Yeah. 384 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: The thing it's funny, Rob brought up Byron Jones made 385 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: a gymnastics move of basically laying out and playing with 386 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 1: off hands. Yeah, so I think it's with the exception 387 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: of the offensive line. Who got to talk about no, no, 388 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: But I mean, but as far as the position depth, 389 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: I think it's a really really good group. I do. 390 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: I like what they have with White and with Lewis 391 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: and with the Woozier. And you know, we'll see. Mickey's right, 392 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: I'm aggressive in the off season to do it. Yeah, 393 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: let's see, you know. I mean, Nicky's right. I think 394 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: they're gonna put somebody on the street or trade. Anthony 395 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: Brown could get back to where he played his fresh 396 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 1: is fresh freshman year rookie. I understood when you said it. 397 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: I did. It's like, yeah, it's freshman year junior Switzer 398 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 1: too much Yeah, over the years, but yeah, if he 399 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: can get back to doing that and you got a 400 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: five six man rotation there quarterback. Yeah, because they felt 401 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: like two year a year ago that that dB group 402 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: had reached the ceiling with Claiborne and Church, Wilcox, Scandrick, Scandrick. 403 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: Now it's these rookie second year guys and maybe they 404 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: make a big jump to show they were hard pressed 405 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: to find four guys a couple of years ago to 406 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: play corner. And you would like to have five for sure, 407 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 1: and they were hard pressed to put that fourth one 408 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 1: on the road. Ask you this the four guys real quick, 409 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: the four guys. You gotta go to break, Okay, goa 410 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: to break? No, no, no. Ask you a question. Yeah, 411 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: I was seeze it. I was wondering. Okay, when you 412 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: come back, when you come back, I want you to ask. 413 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask a question about which one of the 414 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 1: four guys would you have liked to have kept for 415 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: this current group? How about that? That's a great hanger. 416 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 1: And when we come back, we have to get to 417 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 1: the offense because we've exhausted this defense in a good way, 418 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: so we will be right back after this.

I mean with somebody. Could Mo 473 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,959 Speaker 1: Claiborne been a factor of the way they're now playing 474 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: Brandon Carr or like you said, none of these guys. 475 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: I'm okay. They did the right thing. I'm okay with 476 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: this Corner group for me as far as DBS go. 477 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 1: I mentioned it last week. Barry Church when he was here, 478 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 1: was a stabilizing presence at safety. Yeah, but I think 479 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: they've we mentioned the number of guys they got at Corner, 480 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: young guys. I think a Woozier's poised to take a 481 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 1: step this year if he can stay healthy. I like 482 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 1: what they've done at call. So they made the right move. Then, 483 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: to everybody out there, it was kind of like it 484 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,959 Speaker 1: was the gnashing of teeth that Okay, well, oh guy, 485 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: they're getting rid of all these guys. You can't play 486 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: with young corners. So they actually that was a good 487 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: move by the front office. Financial standpoint, also sure, because 488 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 1: I'm with you on maybe Clayborne. But he got a 489 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 1: little bit of money from the Jets. Jets right right, Yeah, um, 490 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: he got some good money. And you're sitting there going, well, 491 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 1: I'd like to see him. They have that speed there, 492 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: but he couldn't stay healthy. As for the rest of it, Yeah, 493 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,640 Speaker 1: it's too bad that these guys didn't stay healthy last 494 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: year because I think you would have seen the takeover 495 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: at a greater pace than what we did. Well, this 496 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 1: is a good segue because obviously those guys they've left, 497 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: and it happens every year and a large part of 498 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: it is due to contracts. And now we're here. Was 499 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 1: Zach Martin everon thought that contract would get figured out 500 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 1: a little bit sooner, but things happen. Time hands passed. 501 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 1: We are close to June and Zach Martin still doesn't 502 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: have his long term deal. We all expect it to happen, 503 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: but until then, he's here working out he's just not 504 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 1: participating in OTAs right and in the meantime, and it's 505 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: got to get it done. You just gotta get it done. 506 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: I think that to me, this is this is one 507 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: of those deals where and you guys, correct me if 508 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 1: I'm wrong here, but this is just my thought about it. 509 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: It's a position that we've seen very few. We've seen 510 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: the position go up through the years. I mean the 511 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: last couple of years, people have stepped up to pay 512 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: their guards as much as tackle has always been a 513 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: position you paid. Wide receiver has been a position you paid, 514 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 1: Cornerback has been a position you paid. Quarterbacks a position 515 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: you're played. I think this is new to teams. I 516 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: think these is new to teams that having to play, 517 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: having to pay that much haven't much for me for 518 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: a guard. And it's not that they don't want to 519 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,400 Speaker 1: do it, but I think they're in a situation where 520 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 1: they're thinking, Okay, what is the right amount, what's not 521 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 1: what's too high, what's too low. I think you're always 522 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: comfortable with the other positions I mentioned, the tackles, the quarterbacks, 523 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: the cornerbacks. I think that you. I think your team's 524 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: front offices are comfortable with those positions. Guards a little 525 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: bit different. Cat and I and you don't want to. 526 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 1: You don't want to. You don't want to short change 527 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: an all Pro player. And of course he's gonna sit 528 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 1: there and say, you know what, I'm one of the 529 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,199 Speaker 1: better players you're on your team. I deserve just as 530 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: much money as this guy or this guy or this guy. 531 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: So I think that's why the Cowboys are having a 532 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 1: little bit of problem right now. It's not something that 533 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 1: they don't want to do or they're trying to hold 534 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: it up, but they're trying to figure out what exactly 535 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,880 Speaker 1: the market is for an All Pro guard to make 536 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: sure that he's compensated like the All Pro that he is. 537 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: I wonder if the guy is Norvelle and Jacksonville, Yeah, 538 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: I wonder how much maybe he reset things because see 539 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 1: that's one of those things that you do. Yeah, that's 540 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: exactly I mean. Now, all of a sudden, he's I 541 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: think he's the highest paid guard now and Zack Martin's 542 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: a four time Pro Bowl, All Pro gay. So yeah, 543 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: so I think I think probably what they're trying to do, 544 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 1: because this is not about this year or next year. 545 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 1: It's down the road absolute and I bet what they're 546 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:24,199 Speaker 1: trying to do is guarantee him more money at and 547 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: the total package it's less. It's like, you're gonna get 548 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: this right now, give us a break on what it's 549 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 1: going to cost you In three years when I'm paying 550 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: a quarterback and I got to make a decision on Zeke. 551 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 1: At some point, I've got to pay a wide receiver. 552 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: You know this, this this little thing ain't gonna last 553 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: for long. Well, not only receiver by committee, but you 554 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: know Alan Hearn's two year deal and he's not making 555 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: that much money. You drafted Michael Gallup. Yeah, and to 556 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: turn out to be something really good for you. Well, 557 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 1: and in three or four years, you're gonna have to 558 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: pay him, right if he does. So you gotta watch 559 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: how you budget your salary cap money. It's not their money, 560 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: it's the salary cap money. I'm sure they'd love to pay, 561 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: you know, Zach Martin all, you know, whatever, But you 562 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 1: gotta watch how you budget down down the road. You 563 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: gotta next year, you got to figure out what what 564 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: if Lawrence has another Pro Bowl season, what are you 565 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: gonna do with him? Yeah, you know it's a long 566 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: term deal for him too, now, So they got to 567 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: be careful. And and I think you're right about guard. 568 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: You sitting there going, God, it's a guard, but the 569 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 1: best one in the league. Right. But See, that's why 570 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: I don't think people have a real handle on that. 571 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: The example about the kid that got signed at Jacksonville. Yeah, 572 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,239 Speaker 1: you know that, that's not having a handle on And 573 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: they had so much money, Yeah right, they had They 574 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: did because they were like seventy million under the cap, 575 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: so they could spend and it's like, okay, well, you know, 576 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: well's never gonna run dry. We may be a little 577 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: spoiled too, because we've seen Tyren Smith, Travis Frederick, even 578 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: Lale Collins last year to get done early, like with 579 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: two years left on there deal. I think we all 580 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: kind of thought, oh, Zach will get done last summer. 581 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: It's gonna get done, I think, But it's it's taken 582 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: longer than we thought. It depends what they're asking for. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Well, 583 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: a lot of fans have a lot of questions, and 584 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: you guys are the experts here, so everyone has heard 585 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: about what's happened to Terrence Williams. He was not out 586 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: there last week, not only because of what's going on, 587 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: mainly because of his foot and the rehab there, and 588 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,239 Speaker 1: we all expected he wouldn't be out there. Well he 589 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: didn't practice, right, didn't practice. Yeah, that's what I meant. 590 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: He was out there. That's what I'm when I'm saying 591 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: out there, I'm mainly meaning that they're on the field participating. 592 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: Terrence Williams, does he have one foot at the door? 593 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: What's going to happen with this? I hate to ask 594 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: that and put anyone's job on the line, but we're just, Oh, 595 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: he put it on the line. That's not true, Mickey, 596 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: you're right, You're right. And so there's just a lot 597 00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,239 Speaker 1: of speculation of his future on this team and kind 598 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: of getting your guys's thoughts and understanding of it. Well, 599 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: we don't know what's going to happen. Legally, Yeah, we 600 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: know that the NFL can can take action against a 601 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: player even if it's not even if he's not charged. 602 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: I mean we saw that with Zeke or if it's 603 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: not a serious matter. I think we're talking about misdemeanors here, 604 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 1: I believe with what we've seen in the reports, with 605 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: police reports, with Terrence in the public intoxication. Yeah, I 606 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: don't know. I think this receiver group's got to shake 607 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: itself out a little bit before you start talking about 608 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: moving on from him. I still think you've got to 609 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: see some guys emerge. And I'm talking about Alan Hearnson. 610 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: I'm talking about Michael Gallup, and you know what you 611 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: have in Terrence, and he's a guy that's played with DAK. 612 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: He hasn't been a high production guy, but he has 613 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: helped you in certain games. He's helped you in the 614 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: running game. I wouldn't jump there yet, but obviously they've 615 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: brought in a lot of competition and it certainly would 616 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 1: help him to be on the field competing. Well. Unfortunately, 617 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 1: he's hurt, so he's in double jeopardy. Not only the 618 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: legal thing hanging over, but he's recovering from surgery to 619 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: repair of fractured fifth METATARSL. So he wouldn't be out there, 620 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:14,959 Speaker 1: and the idea was not to have him out there 621 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 1: till training camp, but he didn't do him himself any favors. Now, again, 622 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: it may come down to what the league does, because 623 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: if the league wants to punish him, then the guarantee 624 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: goes base salary this year, three and a half million disappears, right, 625 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: and then it's like, oh, well, it's not going to 626 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: cost us that much to absorb the rest of his 627 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: pro rated signing bonus. So at this point, you know, 628 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 1: everybody's waving their liberal flag. I'll get rid of the 629 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: guy and we don't need him. Well, it would cost 630 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: you three and a half million because he's already on 631 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: the books for a guaranteed salary. So you have to 632 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: be careful, and you would like to write it out 633 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: and have one person here on the field that actually 634 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: la a lot. Last year, even though he didn't have 635 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: any touchdowns, he still had fifty three catches. You know, 636 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: you just eliminated one hundred and thirty two catches from 637 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 1: your team. Would Witton and dead now I add fifty 638 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: three to that, it would just be Beasley. He'd be 639 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: the only guy leafed over. I think now Noah Brown, 640 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: and look at it as it is right now, Beasley 641 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: is the only guy on this team that's caught more 642 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 1: than sixty four catches in a season. Hearns one year 643 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville sixty four. I said more, yeah, yeah, twenty 644 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: four times in the league. And I think at the 645 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 1: last three years we've had situations where players have conduct 646 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: detrimental policy whatever you want to say, only four times 647 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: have the player been released. I means twenty other players 648 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: with the similar type of things that have happened to 649 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: Terrence Williams still stayed on the team. So I don't 650 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: think they're gonna get him. I just don't write. You 651 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: look at somebody like Demontre Moore and what followed him 652 00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: from Seattle's. Yeah, but players in this situation, twenty of 653 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: the twenty four were brought back only four times as 654 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: a team cut a player like this. I you've all 655 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: made great points. It's catches, it's it's experience, it's it's 656 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: familiarity with the player. Yeah that you know what what 657 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: happened last year at this time, if you remember as well, 658 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: with Damian Wilson and his thing with a gun in 659 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,240 Speaker 1: a parking lot of or dispute and all that, Damian 660 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: Wilson was still here, you know. I mean there's things 661 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: that they will tolerate. And I think this is a 662 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 1: situation where he made a mistake and you know, he's 663 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,359 Speaker 1: he's going to uh, he's going to pay for it, 664 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: not only having to get his car fixed, but he's 665 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 1: also going to pay for it, you know a little 666 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 1: bit personally, you know, with himself. I mean, he's got 667 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 1: to live with that now. But I think the team 668 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: keeps him around. I don't. I don't see them getting 669 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: rid of him. I see them getting him healthy, getting 670 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: him back on the field and then let him compete, 671 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,240 Speaker 1: as Rob says, and let them shake this receiver thing out. 672 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: That might be the position right there. When we talk 673 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: about the strength of a team, that one might be 674 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 1: the weakness of this team. It's unproven. When it's all 675 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: said and done. We just need don't need to be 676 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 1: so righteous. Yeah, right off the bat, before we even know. 677 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: I mean we've heard three different stories on well, the 678 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 1: worst thing that happened is he shouldn't have him and 679 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 1: his agent should have made a statement right once. Then 680 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 1: once all that police the video came out. That was 681 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: very embarrassing. Yeah, that's something they can't take back. Oh 682 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 1: I didn't do this. I didn't do this. I know. 683 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,279 Speaker 1: Well oh wait wait flipping over the front of your 684 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 1: bike here, what are you doing there? You didn't talk 685 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: about that, did you? You know? So that's yeah, this 686 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,879 Speaker 1: is this is something you know that needs to be worked. 687 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 1: I mean he was very he was very polite to 688 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: the police officer. The police officer very polite to him. 689 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: I mean you could see all those things handle the 690 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: right way. But they didn't need to make a statement. 691 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,400 Speaker 1: They just did not need to make that. And he 692 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,439 Speaker 1: is let's gotta point this out. He's a guy they've 693 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 1: never had a problem with off the field. So you know, 694 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,360 Speaker 1: it's like you said, it's a mistake. Fortunate except for 695 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,439 Speaker 1: running forty yard dashes in the parking lot at three 696 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: in the morning. What do you remember that one? Nope, 697 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 1: there was another another one. Let me tell you what. 698 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,320 Speaker 1: There was a bar in Dallas that somebody bet me 699 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 1: I couldn't hit a five iron over a parking lot, 700 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: over a building, and I did it, And that sometimes 701 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: you do forty yards. Sometimes you do forty yard dashes 702 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 1: in the uh. You get challenged, you're challenged, and sometimes 703 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: you do it. So like in training camp at the 704 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: old Cedar Door in Austin when we were hitting seven 705 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 1: ironers into from the gravel parking lot, hitting seven irons 706 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 1: into the power plant. Yeah, well I was bet. I 707 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 1: was bet I couldn't hit it over a building. We 708 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 1: got it over the fence. I don't know how far 709 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 1: it went really back back in all right, talking about 710 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: speed though, tavon Austin. Of course, it run's curious of 711 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 1: what he's going to end up really being. You have 712 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 1: this hybrid receiver running back out there, and he calls 713 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: himself he said, I'm just a playmaker, it's all he is. True, 714 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 1: He's just here to make so hopefully he'll he'll make 715 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: them for you. Mick. He can run quickly, He's very quick, 716 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: and I think it gives him a dangerous person for 717 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 1: punt returns. And I raised the prospect of returning kickoffs 718 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 1: with him and he goes, well, you know, I really 719 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 1: haven't done that much, right, And I said yeah, But 720 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 1: just like that, he goes, I'm sure my name's gonna 721 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 1: come up. And all I can think of is with 722 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 1: the new kickoff return rules, somebody actually kicks it to him, 723 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: and you've got all that open field. I probably shouldn't 724 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: have said it to Jason the other day, and I said, yeah, 725 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,720 Speaker 1: sort of like the did I go the Kansas City 726 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,919 Speaker 1: game at the end of the half when you brought 727 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 1: up the Hill Mary when Mickey no, it was a 728 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 1: dump off that ended up at Hill Mary, right, But 729 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: but no, just think of a fast guy like that 730 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field when you don't have 731 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 1: a lot of people around him. And now it's almost 732 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 1: a video game and there's no running start anymore. There's 733 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 1: no running start. You can't drop your guys back to block. 734 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: You got to stay in that area, so there's a 735 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 1: lot of space if you've got a speedy, shifty guy. 736 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 1: I think there's seven, sorry, seven new kickoff rules that 737 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: will impact if they're trying to prevent collisions. I think 738 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,839 Speaker 1: they've done a bad job with this rule. I think 739 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:28,760 Speaker 1: special teams coaches are going to figure this out about skykicking, 740 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,439 Speaker 1: pooge kicking. They don't have extra blockers in the back. Now, 741 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,359 Speaker 1: all you have to do is put fast guys up 742 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: front on your cover team. You just play balance. But 743 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: if you win that initial block where you have the 744 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 1: stationary blockers in that area, now you're running to the football. 745 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 1: They don't have enough guys to block you back there wedge, 746 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: So all of a sudden, you're gonna see people dumping 747 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 1: the football. There's gonna be more collisions in this game. 748 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 1: People trying to stop them from from bringing the ball 749 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 1: out past. Yeah, you're going to do one of two things. 750 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 1: Because the two guys you only can have three back there, 751 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,360 Speaker 1: right right, So two of them aren't gonna be linebackers 752 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 1: or defensive linemen that can block. It's gonna have to 753 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 1: be somebody that catches the ball. And if you only 754 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 1: can have one guy back then, how liked the field? Yeah, 755 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 1: and you're gonna start hitting the ball to the ten 756 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 1: yard line on the side. There's gonna be more squib kicks, 757 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 1: there's gonna be more pooch kicks, there's gonna be more 758 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,439 Speaker 1: trying to be disruptive with the football. They're gonna they're 759 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: they're gonna get the total opposite of safety here. There's 760 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 1: gonna be a ton of collisions, directional kicking. Try and 761 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: get guys pinned into a corner, get them on the 762 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 1: tackle them on the ten, twelve yard line and let 763 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:38,279 Speaker 1: them start from there. And they think that's the bad rule. 764 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 1: You think that instead of just trying to go for 765 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 1: more tapas. Absolutely, because you can pin them deep like that. 766 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,399 Speaker 1: Just now, there's gonna be more collisions or you just 767 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,920 Speaker 1: don't get to the ball. Yeah. Today, And if it 768 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 1: is about safety, right because NFL owners, the report is 769 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 1: owners were told concussions are five times is likely to 770 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 1: occur on kickoff returns. So, but it's a collision game. 771 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,360 Speaker 1: But if you're a kickoff, if you're on the kickoff team, 772 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 1: you don't get a run up anymore. Right, you gotta 773 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 1: be one yard But all you have to do is 774 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 1: well and they and they're not allowed to drop. So 775 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 1: right the way it is, so you're gonna have a 776 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 1: lot of collisions up front. Up front. Is it going 777 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:15,240 Speaker 1: to create about forty yards of space? Absolutely? And who's 778 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: keeping somebody from dumping the ball and letting it just 779 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: bounce around down there? And again putting putting defensive backs 780 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 1: on your kickoff team, Guys that can run, Guys that 781 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: can avoid, Guys that can make make the plaque that 782 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,240 Speaker 1: can cover the kick. I think Jason said it best 783 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 1: in the press conference when he said, when you make 784 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 1: rules like this, there's always unintended consequences. Oh yeah, get ready, 785 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: you didn't did you think it all the way through? 786 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 1: Because the coaches they will figure it out how to 787 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 1: take advantage. They are figuring out right now. Yes, absolutely, Well, 788 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: if you guys haven't figured out, you have to go 789 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 1: and vote for our Twitter poll.

How many shots did uh? I 847 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 1: don't want to get you the Twitter poll? Do you? 848 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,319 Speaker 1: You just don't want shots at Harden put up last 849 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 1: night like twenty nine seven for twenty nine or something ridiculous. 850 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. We already got into it a little bit, 851 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,839 Speaker 1: the receivers, but your pole falls along those lines and 852 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: Mickey hinted the fact that he he twisted up the 853 00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 1: uh the percentages, so right, I have. I'm gonna make 854 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,319 Speaker 1: a guess after you read it. I'm gonna guess who 855 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 1: make you chose? Please do? Okay, simple poll, Brian, which 856 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 1: new wide receiver? Of these new wide receivers will have 857 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 1: the biggest impact in twenty eighteen. I've got Tavon Austin 858 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 1: as a receiver here. Okay, he's gonna at least do 859 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 1: in my opinion's probably gonna most of one. Alan Hearns, 860 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:45,440 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup or Deante Thompson. Okay, Mickey, before I make 861 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,400 Speaker 1: your guess, did you at least choose somebody that was 862 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 1: on this Yes? I did? Okay, there was no rite 863 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:56,319 Speaker 1: in available, Okay, so I couldn't. I couldn't vote for Marchie. 864 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 1: He loves his Marchie Marchie and Mickey Marchie Special pot Show. 865 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 1: I want to say that Mickey wrote Deontay Thompson that 866 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 1: you voted for him. I did not. Did you vote 867 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 1: for Gallup? I did not? Okay, Well, then I'm out. Well, 868 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: I'm not skewing it. I played the percentages of who's 869 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 1: going to get the best chance and it's gonna be 870 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 1: Alan Hurns. Oh, he wrote the obvious one. See, I 871 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: thought he was gonna go with the Deontay Thompson, you know, 872 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,799 Speaker 1: run up flash on him. Bryce Butler two point kind 873 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 1: of a guy. Yes, Yeah, who'd you vote for? I 874 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 1: voted for Herns? He did. Yeah, And if he doesn't 875 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 1: make the biggest impact, they're in trouble. Well, I just 876 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: need him to be as good as does Bryant was 877 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,800 Speaker 1: last year. That's all I need. Was it? Sixty five catches? 878 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:44,840 Speaker 1: Sixty nine sixty nine catches? How many yards we have? 879 00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:50,399 Speaker 1: What was how many touchdowns we have? Six? Okay, give 880 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 1: me that In total agreement, I went with Alan Hurns 881 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 1: as well. Fans agree, Yeah, why well, I would just 882 00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:58,840 Speaker 1: have to say, you know, he kind of has nothing 883 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: to lose here. I mean, granted he has you have 884 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: to be this number one wide receiver, but no one's 885 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:08,200 Speaker 1: thinking of him as a Dez Bryant type guy yet, right, 886 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 1: you know? So we remember Sweeden nice though the Dez 887 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 1: Bryant numbers, the numbers would be great, and yes, he 888 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 1: wore eighty eight at Jacksonville, so there's yeah, hopefully some 889 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,720 Speaker 1: similarities there. But I feel like he's in the perfect 890 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 1: position to have a breakout year. It's great opportunity for sure, 891 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:25,239 Speaker 1: and they're not. Yeah, they're not asking him to be 892 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 1: dominant necessarily, that'd be great, but just be be reliable 893 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,920 Speaker 1: for deck. How close were Thompson and Gallop? Well, hearns 894 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 1: one forty five percent. Thompson only got three percent of them. Okay, 895 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: the folks don't know him yet. Michael Gallop was second 896 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 1: thirty seven percent, Austin fifteen percent. I wonder how much 897 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 1: of that as well. Is he going to be a 898 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:47,919 Speaker 1: quasi running back, Yes, he will do some of those things. 899 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 1: They're gonna move him. He's gonna be a chess piece, right, yes, 900 00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 1: so very similar to I believe you'll see it, very 901 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 1: similar to the way they used him in Los Angeles. 902 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 1: Was is a running back. They used him as a 903 00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 1: slot player to throw the ball to a lot of 904 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 1: his stuff is not down the field. A lot of 905 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: his stuff is around the line of scrimmage. It's the 906 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:08,399 Speaker 1: jet sweeps. It's the sweeps, it's the straight handoffs, it's 907 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 1: you know, one back runs, it's screens. That's that's the 908 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:15,000 Speaker 1: kind of player that he is. And I see them 909 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,080 Speaker 1: doing the same thing with him with him here, so 910 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,600 Speaker 1: I don't don't make any judgments on what they do 911 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 1: in the first week of OTA. He's like, oh, he's 912 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 1: only playing wide receive, right. Look, the guys settle in 913 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 1: getting used to the offense, and then you'll start seeing 914 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:31,799 Speaker 1: them moving them around and they may not show us 915 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 1: everything exactly right. Yeah. I think though, the one if 916 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 1: they could get gallop though, if they can get gallop 917 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:42,000 Speaker 1: to the learning curve with gallop to be very small, 918 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 1: you know, to get him out there. I mean, he's 919 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:47,680 Speaker 1: got the quickness, athletic ability to avoid the jams. He 920 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 1: can make plays down the field. I was talking to 921 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 1: some guys. I'm like, you know, you turn around every 922 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 1: once so while you just see the ball going down 923 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,400 Speaker 1: the field of thirteen and like Mike White throwing it. 924 00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 1: The guy's got the ability to adjust, to extend, you know, 925 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: those types of things that you want. He could be 926 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:05,239 Speaker 1: the one surprise that if things don't really work out 927 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: for Alan Hearns, Okay, now it's about okay, let's get 928 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 1: him going. But if the learning curve is very, very small, 929 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 1: he might give Alan Hearnes a run. So thirty seven 930 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 1: percent of the people there might be absolutely right a situation. Yeah, 931 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: he was my second choice. Yeah, and I just just thinking, 932 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:22,520 Speaker 1: how is he going to get the opportunity. The rookies 933 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 1: usually take a little time to get going, but he 934 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 1: could have a huge impact well. And so this this 935 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: occurred to me from a percentage standpoint, What do we 936 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 1: see more of four wide or two tight ends? I 937 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:39,640 Speaker 1: think you'll see more. I think that the three wides 938 00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 1: is there or you said four, said four. Yeah, they 939 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,480 Speaker 1: tend to run the ball. They could run the ball 940 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:50,799 Speaker 1: out of eleven personnel pretty well, spread people out, and 941 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:54,839 Speaker 1: they're probably gonna have to do it. Well, they're gonna 942 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 1: have to do it. Just maybe if the receivers don't 943 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 1: have success, they're still probably gonna have to get an 944 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 1: eleven personnel just to make people spread out. You know, 945 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: like if you could say, okay, well we'll play everybody 946 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 1: a little wider and give themselves some space and keep 947 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 1: people from walking guys down into the box. I mean, 948 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:15,400 Speaker 1: it's gonna be tough for them. They've run the football 949 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 1: against eight and nine man boxes before, But don't you 950 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:21,160 Speaker 1: think that's gonna if you're a defensive coordinator right now, 951 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,239 Speaker 1: I am not scared of you worried about. I'm not 952 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,919 Speaker 1: scared of any one of your receivers. I'm worried about Zeke. 953 00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 1: I'm scared about Cole Beasley, and I am scared of Zeke. Okay, Zeke. 954 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:33,319 Speaker 1: We got to talk about him because something came out 955 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 1: about him last week that I was pleasantly surprised to 956 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:39,840 Speaker 1: hear about. He has Nobel Prize, not close, not close, 957 00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 1: but he's getting there. He is on the Leadership council. Man, 958 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,879 Speaker 1: when the Nobel Prize, he's on the Leadership council. That's 959 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 1: a step in the right direction to that Nobel Peace Prize. 960 00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:52,640 Speaker 1: But he is on the Leadership Council, and he says, 961 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:54,919 Speaker 1: you know, big step of that is that he wants 962 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:58,320 Speaker 1: to be more vocal this year. He wants to step 963 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,319 Speaker 1: up as one of the younger veteran ends on this team. 964 00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:04,759 Speaker 1: I'm pleasantly surprised to hear that because I think that 965 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,640 Speaker 1: a large part of his identity on this team has 966 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 1: been you know, it's Zeke. He's been on the party 967 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 1: planning committee, Party Planning Committee, moving more to the leadership counsel. Yeah, 968 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:19,240 Speaker 1: there you go. He goes from social director to actual director. 969 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:21,920 Speaker 1: Le mate how well he does on that console after 970 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,960 Speaker 1: July sixteenth. Why do you say that? Why because then 971 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:31,400 Speaker 1: he's on his own for a month June sixteenth, A 972 00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:34,360 Speaker 1: July sixteen two, Well that's the weekend. We got the 973 00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:39,919 Speaker 1: fourth of July coming up for Zeke two trips less. 974 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 1: I'm happy to see ye. Yeah, And look, he's one 975 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,719 Speaker 1: of the best players on this team. It's important for 976 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 1: your best players to be leaders because you gotta have 977 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:51,440 Speaker 1: We talked about this. You got to have the production 978 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 1: to be able to be vocal. I mean, you got 979 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 1: to back it up on the field. So he definitely 980 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:58,319 Speaker 1: does that. Well, if I'm Ezekiel Elliott, I'm looking at 981 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 1: how it affected the entire sea. What a pain it 982 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:04,319 Speaker 1: was the entire season. What a taxing experience. It was 983 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:08,120 Speaker 1: probably not worth it at all. And then the fact 984 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:10,120 Speaker 1: of the matter is just look at what he lost. 985 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 1: He lost money, He lost respect from coaches and teammates, 986 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 1: He lost a lot. I don't know if he lost respect, 987 00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 1: but he lost guaranteed money. Yeah, I'll go with the money. 988 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,399 Speaker 1: And I think I think everybody they respect I mean 989 00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:26,080 Speaker 1: reliability more. You know, it was hard every week in 990 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 1: and out. Yeah, I think they you know, this is 991 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 1: going to sound really strange and probably bad. I think 992 00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:35,239 Speaker 1: they knew who Ezekiel Eliott was, but when they drafted him, 993 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 1: drafted it absolutely when they drafted him, I think that 994 00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:40,880 Speaker 1: there's no secret to what was going on in Ohio 995 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:44,640 Speaker 1: State with that group. Now again, it's it's nice to 996 00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,959 Speaker 1: see him say, Okay, I have to be more accountable 997 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 1: for what's going on. Yeah, that was a very difficult year, 998 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 1: not only for Ezekiel financially, but it was a difficult 999 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 1: year for his teammates. And you know, if you're any 1000 00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 1: kind of a teammate, you would feel bad about to 1001 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 1: sit su. You know that he wasn't there for them 1002 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 1: for six games. You know, I mean that him playing 1003 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:07,839 Speaker 1: in games. I mean he basically came out and said, 1004 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 1: asking Hi, about what was he fifty third on the 1005 00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:13,000 Speaker 1: top one hundred player list. He goes him is six 1006 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 1: games almost have a thousand yards? You know? I mean 1007 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,839 Speaker 1: that's that? Yeah. Well, no, I'm just but but I'm 1008 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 1: just saying though, he I think I like if there 1009 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:25,879 Speaker 1: was some remorse about how it went down last year 1010 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 1: and the and the reward for him now from the 1011 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:32,439 Speaker 1: coaches is Okay, listen, we do trust you. We think 1012 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 1: you can be a leader, we think you can may 1013 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:36,719 Speaker 1: be a difference maker. I think this is his way 1014 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:39,839 Speaker 1: of bringing him back in. He was a little bit 1015 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 1: on the outside last year. And you know, but everybody 1016 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:45,760 Speaker 1: loves Zeke. I don't know anybody that doesn't. Yeah, teammates 1017 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:47,719 Speaker 1: love him. And I will say one one way he 1018 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:52,239 Speaker 1: does lead is on the field. Physical. He's gonna bring 1019 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 1: it every single time he's out there. I think guys 1020 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 1: follow that physical tone and that's important, you know. So 1021 00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: that's another way to lead. You don't always have to 1022 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,399 Speaker 1: be the vocal guy. But obviously taking care of off 1023 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 1: the field business. Every leader, every if you're gonna be 1024 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 1: a leader on a team, everybody has to do that, 1025 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 1: no question. Well, he's so lucky the draft class he 1026 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,359 Speaker 1: came in, they're good class. I mean you look at 1027 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:17,680 Speaker 1: guys like Jalen Smith. You have to follow his lead 1028 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:19,880 Speaker 1: of just everything he's done just to get back onto 1029 00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 1: the field. Yeah yeah, I mean yeah, this is Dak's team. 1030 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:26,000 Speaker 1: This is Zeke's team. Now, I mean there is no 1031 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:29,160 Speaker 1: Jason Witten anymore. So if the best young players on 1032 00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:31,799 Speaker 1: this team have to have a larger role in the 1033 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,799 Speaker 1: locker room, and that includes Zeke for sure includes Zeke, 1034 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:39,000 Speaker 1: that includes Zack Martins, that includes the Byron Jones. Yeah, 1035 00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:41,879 Speaker 1: it's all of a sudden, this team is very, very young. 1036 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:44,279 Speaker 1: It's it's really incredible. I've been meaning I need to 1037 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 1: go back and see, like where it ranks. It's just 1038 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:49,880 Speaker 1: an average age because it's it's a lot of second 1039 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:54,560 Speaker 1: and third years guysperience. Well, now you're starting quarterback has 1040 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:56,319 Speaker 1: started a lot of games in the league. Now for 1041 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:59,400 Speaker 1: being twenty four years old, that's good. But you shook 1042 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:04,919 Speaker 1: your head. Yeah, well yeah, they they're they're young. But 1043 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 1: these guys have played. Yeah, yeah, you know, Dak he's 1044 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:13,160 Speaker 1: played thirty two games. Zeke's played. Dak's played, Zeke's played 1045 00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:19,840 Speaker 1: what sixteen and ten? Yeah, Collins has played. Collins has played. 1046 00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:24,840 Speaker 1: You look at now once you get healthy played, Xavier 1047 00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:27,960 Speaker 1: Woods played, Brown's played. They've all they've all played. So 1048 00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 1: some spots you're gonna have some guys that haven't. Of course, 1049 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:33,360 Speaker 1: the you know, if the starting mic linebacker happens to 1050 00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:36,400 Speaker 1: be Vandersch, right, but but if whoever they play at 1051 00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 1: SAM linebacker, if it whether it's Jalen Smith or Wilson 1052 00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:41,920 Speaker 1: Wilson's played a lot for a young guy, and the 1053 00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:47,040 Speaker 1: offensive line it's played. Yeah, if Connor Williams wins the job, okay, fine, 1054 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 1: But at least the backup tackle now has played in 1055 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:54,400 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. So your depths there is much better 1056 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:59,120 Speaker 1: off than what you, I guess projected you had, which 1057 00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,920 Speaker 1: didn't work out so well. This the one position I 1058 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:06,400 Speaker 1: keep going back to is this receiving group. That's the 1059 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:08,680 Speaker 1: one I think we're gonna have to figure out. Well. 1060 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:10,839 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna have to say, you haven't had 1061 00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:12,480 Speaker 1: to worry about in a while. Yeah, who are the 1062 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,000 Speaker 1: best five? I mean, I'm not saying right now we 1063 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:17,799 Speaker 1: have to just throw out five names. But I think 1064 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:20,759 Speaker 1: when we get to Oxnard and it show you know 1065 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,440 Speaker 1: it show fifteen, it show eighteen, it shows you know 1066 00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:25,440 Speaker 1: we're down to it. We're going, Okay, what do we 1067 00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:28,879 Speaker 1: learn about this receiving crew? Jeff trouble ranking them last week? 1068 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:33,880 Speaker 1: I put Beasley at number one. I did too well. 1069 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,680 Speaker 1: You know, you look at where we were this dot 1070 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:39,080 Speaker 1: com by the way, yeah it's there. I remember there 1071 00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: being a discussion about what they we're gonna do with receiver. 1072 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:44,480 Speaker 1: They had so many I mean Andy Jones was the 1073 00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 1: name that you're like, does he stay on? At this 1074 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 1: point last year, Lucky Whitehead was still on the team. 1075 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:52,480 Speaker 1: You know, young guys were not gonna make this rock 1076 00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:56,600 Speaker 1: the whole thing with with Noah Brown. Noah Brown was 1077 00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 1: a Bryce Butler. He was gonna be Yeah, I mean, 1078 00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:00,960 Speaker 1: there was it was it kind of a group of 1079 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,040 Speaker 1: guys that you're like, Okay, we've got the four, who's 1080 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 1: the fifth one or who's the sixth one? And now 1081 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:11,440 Speaker 1: you're kind of like, okay, we've got two or three. 1082 00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:13,960 Speaker 1: Who are the other three? Yeah? You know, and you 1083 00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:16,879 Speaker 1: don't have to count Austin in that group necessarily, right, 1084 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,640 Speaker 1: you know? So yeah, but who else can Lance Lenoor 1085 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:23,759 Speaker 1: break through? See? That's that's the guy I always talk about, 1086 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:26,959 Speaker 1: that's my my Lance leanr. Because of Will mcclay's relationship 1087 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:28,719 Speaker 1: with him is like, you know, I'd like to see 1088 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 1: him do something. There might be it. There might be 1089 00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:34,120 Speaker 1: a surprise guy that we don't think about, like that, 1090 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:37,279 Speaker 1: the Lance Lenore guy that we that that comes in 1091 00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:40,799 Speaker 1: and it's like, well, what Cedric Wilson. I mean I'm 1092 00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:42,759 Speaker 1: not giving Cedria. I mean I'm kind of just kind 1093 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:44,880 Speaker 1: of pooh pooh and Cedric Wilson, right, I know, and 1094 00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:47,120 Speaker 1: he's got he and he's got he's got a lot 1095 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,879 Speaker 1: of ability and and so, okay, do you carry five 1096 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,520 Speaker 1: wide receivers? Wait a minut we're carrying three quarterbacks? Now, well, 1097 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:54,479 Speaker 1: how many tight ends we're gonna carry weight? You gotta 1098 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,720 Speaker 1: carry Rico. No, we're not gonna carry Rico. We're carrying 1099 00:56:56,719 --> 00:57:00,000 Speaker 1: three tight ends. You get you kind of get into 1100 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: who a numbers a numbers game with some of these positions. 1101 00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 1: And I'm not necessarily sinking it might be that whoever 1102 00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 1: doesn't make this team probably made it because they just 1103 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:14,439 Speaker 1: weren't good enough. It wasn't because which is a great 1104 00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:16,920 Speaker 1: problem to have. Well, it's a great you want him 1105 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 1: to be good, but you want to be able to 1106 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:20,440 Speaker 1: say you want to be able to say. Man, we 1107 00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:23,200 Speaker 1: had a really tough decision. We got seven we got 1108 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 1: seven receivers for five positions, instead of okay, we've got 1109 00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:30,680 Speaker 1: seven receivers and we were only going to take these four. 1110 00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:33,320 Speaker 1: And by the way, who was on the waiver wire today? Ye? 1111 00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:35,560 Speaker 1: Who was? Who can we trade for? Who is there 1112 00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,000 Speaker 1: somebody as Yeah?
