1
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: The volume the ADULTO Championships. That should always do the expectation.

2
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 1: All right, man, at you go ahead, Welcome back to

3
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 1: the Richard Sherman Podcast. And I know I talk about

4
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: Seahawks and Niners and the teams that I played for,

5
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 1: But man, this Cowboys drama has got me thinking, what

6
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: is Jerry doing now? Micah Parsons comes out and tells

7
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 1: the truth. Michael Parsons's day was transparent in those statements

8
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 1: that he released. Hey, didn't want to do this. I

9
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: wanted to play for the Dallas Cowboys my whole career.

10
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 1: It's my dad's team. I wanted to play for these

11
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 1: great fans. I tried my best to get it done.

12
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 1: I didn't want to have these closed doors negotiations with

13
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 1: the staff. I didn't feel like that was right. And

14
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: he's right. Unless you're representing yourself, which I've done, then

15
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: don't talk to a player by himself without his agent

16
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: president day. He's not up in himself. And even if

17
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: you do, fine, cool. If that's what you did with

18
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: CD and Dak, cool, But eventually you got to their agents.

19
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,559
Speaker 1: You got to Todd France, you got to you got

20
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: to Toy Dandy, you got to their agents at athletes

21
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: first and Uh, Todd France I think is uh, he's

22
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 1: athletes first, and and and uh Toy and Toy Dandy

23
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: is uh and CIA. So what's crazy about this whole

24
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: thing is the quote that Jerry said. And I want

25
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 1: to say it was April, and I want to quote

26
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: it because I don't want to. I don't want to

27
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: get this wrong. I don't I do not want to

28
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: get this wrong because it was so ridiculous then and

29
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: it just seems like insanity right now, after after everything

30
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: that Mike has says, Jerry Jones says, the agent is

31
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: not a factor here. It's not something to worry about.

32
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: And I don't know his name now, mind you, Michaeh.

33
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: Parsons agent was just named the most powerful agent in

34
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: the NFL, best agent, whatever you want to say. But

35
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: he just got an award for being the best. To say,

36
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 1: you don't know the name of the most powerful or

37
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: best quote unquote, you know it. Everybody has their opinion,

38
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: but this is what he's award he's been given. But

39
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 1: you don't know his name, Jerry, seems seems odd to me.

40
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: That seems odd. That seems like you're you're insinuating something.

41
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: You're insinuating you can do this without him. But you

42
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: didn't do that for Dak. You didn't do that for CD.

43
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: You didn't do that with Trey Diggs. You didn't do

44
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: it without their agents in the room. And and even

45
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: toy Dandy was praising Jerry for how much he cares

46
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: about his players, given given CD Lamb financial advice about

47
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: his future and planning for the future. But Michah Parsons,

48
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: you you do. We not see the same way, Jerry,

49
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: because I haven't heard you before. Cedee Lamb got his contract,

50
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: saying hey, CDE did this or CD is this or CD?

51
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if we're gonna pay him because of

52
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 1: A B and C CD did a great job, played

53
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: to an all pro level, got paid, Dak Prescott did

54
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,959
Speaker 1: a good job, played to an all pro level, got paid.

55
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons three are Trey Diggs played to an all

56
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: pro level, got paid. Michael Parsons three time first team

57
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: All Pro, still unpaid, unpaid, and his teammates are saying

58
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: pay him. Other execs around the league thought it was,

59
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: I mean, beyond a given to pay Michael Parsons. What

60
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: does Jerry know that we don't know. He's not a

61
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: bad kid. It doesn't seem on the outside looking in.

62
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: I haven't heard his teammates say anything about him. You

63
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: haven't heard any scandals come out about Michael Parsons. You're

64
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: not hearing. Oh man, he's a he's a cancer in

65
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: the locker room. All you've heard is he's grown as

66
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: a leader. He's a true competitor. He goes out there

67
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: and puts it all on the line every single Sunday, Monday, Thursday,

68
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: whatever they play, he puts it all on the line.

69
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: Is he a perfect place, No, but he wrecks every

70
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: game that he's in. He jumps off the tape every

71
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: single time that he's in. He's one of the top ten,

72
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: top fifteen players in the National Football League. There's no

73
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: question about that. Is beyond contestation. So what does Jerry

74
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: Jones know that we don't know? Because I don't get this.

75
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: He may Deack the highest paid you made, Cede Lamb,

76
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: the highest paid you made Trade Diggs. If I'm not mistaken,

77
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: the highest pay or the right up there with them.

78
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,359
Speaker 1: So why not Micah? His accolades stack up with everybody else's.

79
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: He's not injured, he's healthy right now from what I

80
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: can understand, But he just doesn't want to practice because

81
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,840
Speaker 1: obviously there's a contract dispute and it makes no sense.

82
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 1: There are probably thirty one other teams that would take

83
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: him now, not every team could take him for forty

84
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: one million, which is what he will demand and what

85
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: he will deserve because you waited this long. You could

86
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: have got him with Nicholas John Posa's deal, which was

87
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 1: I think thirty four million a year. That sounds like

88
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: a bargain now compared to what people are getting now

89
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: you gotta go above TJ. Watts forty one and some

90
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 1: change like why why wait this long? Why why keep

91
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 1: making improve it? Why keep making improve it? And then

92
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: you now you're making it an issue between fans and players.

93
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: Now fans will sit there and look at it player

94
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,359
Speaker 1: and be like Marin, what is he talking? He's not

95
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: doing everything he can for the team. Yes he is.

96
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: He's done everything he could for the Dallas Cowboys. Fans like,

97
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 1: I know, you guys probably don't feel great about me,

98
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: and I you know, it is what it is. But

99
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons is a great player who's done a great

100
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: job for your team and deserves the money that he's

101
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: asking for. He deserves it. He deserved it years ago.

102
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: He'd probably would be looking for an extension at this

103
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: point if you would have just signed him when you

104
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 1: were supposed to sign him, or an extension next year.

105
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: But if you're gonna keep holding him hostage, I just

106
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 1: don't know. It just it's a bad look. It's a

107
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: bad look on it. And everybody's talking about man, our

108
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: team needs to not not many teams have forty one

109
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: million in open space or the ability to create enough

110
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: money to be able to sign park Michael Parsons to

111
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: an extension. Bring him in immediately now, and especially the contenders,

112
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: especially the contenders. Everybody's talking about Man, the Philadelphia Eagle's

113
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: gonna gonna pull a fast one again. I don't think so.

114
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: I mean, Howie is a magician. He does a phenomenal job,

115
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,239
Speaker 1: one of the best in the history of the game.

116
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: Has has put together incredible teams. But if you tell

117
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: me Howie Roseman can get Jerry Jones and trade of

118
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons within a division coming fresh off a Super

119
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: Bowl win, like, oh my god, wait to hear what

120
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 1: I got to say after that day, that would be insanity,

121
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: so you would assume he has to get at least

122
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: out of the East. So then you you it leaves

123
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: you a lot of NFC teams, a lot of AFC

124
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 1: team But where does Michael want to go and what

125
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: what can he get done? Who has the space? All

126
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: that matters And I'm not gonna speculate and get into

127
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: all those details. But why are we here? Why are

128
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: we even talking about this? Because only Jerry can put

129
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: us in a boss when we're one of his best players.

130
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: And it's not even be debatable. It is sitting here saying, Wow,

131
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: you guys don't want me. And I've been saying it

132
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: for years that I don't understand why they aren't paying him.

133
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 1: What did he do to Jerry Jones? What has he done?

134
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: What is Michael Parsons done to Jerry Jones for him

135
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: not to want to pay him major money going forward?

136
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: Because I don't see it. I don't see the problem.

137
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: I don't see the issue. I don't see the hesitation

138
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: because he hasn't done anything to make you want to hesitate.

139
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: He's a great player, he's leader, he's done everything he's

140
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,679
Speaker 1: supposed to do. But having the conversations without his agent

141
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: there and then thinking that, hey, we agreed to something

142
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: and we're not even going to involve the agent and

143
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: whatever the agent said, we're not even going to answer

144
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: his calls because we agreed to something without you. That

145
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: sounds beyond ridiculous. And Jerry, you wouldn't advise your own

146
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: son to do that without his lawyer and his representation present. Cool.

147
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: You can talk about subtle details. You maybe talk about

148
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: an outline. Hey, we're trying to give you two hundred million. Yep,

149
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: four years, two hundred million. Cool, I hear you. Jared,

150
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 1: that sounds great. Man, highest paid defensive non quarterback in

151
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: the league. Cool, Jerry, that sounds great. Just talk to

152
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: my agent, iron out the details and we can go

153
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: ahead with it. But you don't want to do that

154
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,119
Speaker 1: for some reason. And that's where the rub is. That's

155
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: the details we need, Like why don't you want his

156
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: agent to be there? What details were in there that

157
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: you knew that David mulla Ghetto would see and say,

158
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: hold up, this ain't happening. It's definitely not happening like that,

159
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: because that's how shady it sounds. When you said, hey,

160
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: we had an agreement in place, but when the agent calls.

161
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: I don't answer the phone. It sounds like you got

162
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: something up your sleep, Jerry, and I want to know

163
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: what's up your sleep because it doesn't make sense to

164
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: anyone else, and it's now playing out in the public

165
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 1: right before another season, promising season. Got your best players

166
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: are healthy, You're good. I think the left tackle might

167
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 1: have got a little banged up, but knock on what

168
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: he's gonna be okay. But you're healthy. Going into season,

169
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: there's hope in the fan base. There's excitement, as it

170
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: should be going into the football year for every team.

171
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 1: You should feel good, we're a chance at the super Bowl. Cool.

172
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 1: Let the season, you know, kind of put your fire out,

173
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: but cool. You can have those expectations. But the amount

174
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: of vitro and drama that Jerry Jones and Steven Jones

175
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: are are injecting into this franchise before it even starts

176
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 1: just just crazy. Why how does this? I see in

177
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: no world that this benefits your football team. Then no

178
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: world that this makes you a better football team, an

179
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 1: easier football team to root for, It makes your best

180
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: players happier and want to play for you. It does

181
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: the exact opposite. You have CD Lamb sitting there like,

182
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 1: come on, man, pay him. What are you you owing?

183
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: Like you are creating the vision within a team, not

184
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: against other teams, but against you because how you're because

185
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: of how you're speaking about your players, because of how

186
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: you're treating your players. And it's bad business, man, it's

187
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,119
Speaker 1: bad business. And I you know, you would think wisdom

188
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: comes with age, but it's clearly going the other way

189
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 1: for Jerry, and I don't get it. I really don't.

190
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 1: Nothing says summer like long days, clutch plays, and firing

00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: In another trade situation, Terry McLaurin in the NFC East

217
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: has requested a trade from the Washington Commanders. He wants

218
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: to be paid like the top receiver in the National

219
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: Football League, which would put him over forty million, and

220
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: it's something that I think the Washington commanders are unwilling

221
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: to do. And you understand both sides of it. You

222
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: understand from Terry mclaurin's side, Hey, you brought another guy in.

223
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 1: And I knew that once they brought Depo in and

224
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: the amount of money he was making, it would it

225
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: would cause an issue with Terry McLaurin. I said that

226
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 1: when it happened. I said, I just don't know how

227
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: Terry will respond to this, and everybody told me I

228
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: was crazy. I said, I don't know, because receivers are

229
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: that way, like you bringing somebody else here. You don't

230
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: think I'm that great, then show me how much you

231
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 1: value me by paying me the amount of money. So

232
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 1: then I'll sleep calm at night. I'll sleep good at night. Hey,

233
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: that's not it's not my world. I didn't create it.

234
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 1: That's just how it is, and that's how it's playing out.

235
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: Terry McLarin wants security, he wants respect from the Washington commanders.

236
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: They are saying they're unwilling to trade him, and they're

237
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: unwilling to meet his demands. They're willing to put him

238
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: in the thirty three thirty four million dollar range that

239
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 1: DK Metcalf just signed for. He's unwilling to accept those

240
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: kind of numbers. Is there another team that is willing

241
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 1: to also to not only trade potentially at first, well,

242
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: the receiver market has been different. I mean maybe at

243
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: third and the fifth. What you're gonna have to because

244
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to pay him so much the draft

245
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 1: value will likely go down. But on top of that,

246
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to pay him what he wants, So

247
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to agree to an extension before the

248
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 1: trade ever comes through along with the draft compensation. And

249
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: maybe the Commanders are gonna ask for something crazy because

250
00:13:58,200 --> 00:13:59,719
Speaker 1: you're doing it at a point in the season that

251
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: you can can't necessarily like find to his replacement. You're

252
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: not gonna be able to replace his production, his his

253
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: veteran presence, you know who he's been to the Washington

254
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: Commanders over these years, instantly unless you get a player

255
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 1: of equal value. But even then you're talking about getting

256
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: him up to speed with the playbook, the culture of

257
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: the team. Terry McLaurin has been a consummate professional for

258
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 1: the Washington Commanders. So there's just so many moving parts

259
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 1: that I just don't see a deal happening quickly here.

260
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: Unless the team is desperate and really is in love

261
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: with Terry McLaurin and they're really willing to give a

262
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: boat load of draft picks and make Washington a deal

263
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: that they can't refuse. I just don't see it happening.

264
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 1: I see Terry McLaurin likely settling for a contract he

265
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily agree with in both sides. You know, That's

266
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: that's what it'll end up being. It'll be a compromise.

267
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin will get some concessions, the Washington commanders will

268
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: get some concessions. Hopefully they shake hands and Terry McLaurin

269
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 1: is the Washington commander for years to come. But it's

270
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a situation that we need to watch

271
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: Trey hintckson. He's watching practice, he's showing up. And that's

272
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: a new thing that's happening these days. Players are getting

273
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: smart because they made it such a so financially discouraging

274
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: to sit out and miss games. When you're holding out,

275
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 1: they put all the control on the team's hands, and

276
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: so players have taken the control back by saying I'm

277
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 1: gonna hold in And I'm not even necessarily gonna say

278
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: it's a hold in. I'm just gonna show up and

279
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have some undisclosed injury that you can't prove

280
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 1: I don't have, and I'm gonna get treated for it

281
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: every day. What are you gonna do? You're gonna tell

282
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: me I'm not hurt. You can't do that, not in

283
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: this day and age, not with social media and everything.

284
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: But you can kind of speculate it. And until you

285
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: pay Trey Hendrickson, it doesn't look like he's gonna be

286
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: on the field. And if he misses the game and

287
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: you lose that that AFC North isn't a isn't a

288
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: division you can play with. The Baltimore Ravens aren't gonna

289
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 1: be playing any games. And you got a quarterback in

290
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 1: these receivers that are highly highly paid, gonna put up

291
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 1: a lot of points in the one guy you had

292
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: on defense that's been consistent year after year. You're not

293
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: giving that respect. Even Joe Burrow thought you would pay him.

294
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: You pay t Higgins, Cool, pay Jamar Chase top money,

295
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: top dollar, got it. Joe Burrow has his money. Cool,

296
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: got it? Now you don't want to pay the defense.

297
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: And Mike Brown has been one of those owners who's said,

298
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: I don't you know they had to sell the naming rights,

299
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 1: naming rights to the stadium for Joe Burrow's deal. Like

300
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,119
Speaker 1: they are, they do not like to spend money. And

301
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna, you know, spill the beans about how

302
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: some of the conversations went when we were negotiating with owners.

303
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: But Mike Brown, you know, the way he spends money

304
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: isn't necessarily seen in a good life by the other

305
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 1: owners of the league. You know, I think they would

306
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: like him to have to spend money more money, and

307
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: like it to be in line with everybody else who's

308
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: trying to grow the game and make this a better product.

309
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: And they don't think he's investing enough into his team

310
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: to grow the game. But he's benefiting as much as

311
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: the rest of them are. But that's a story for

312
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 1: a different dam. I'm not going to go down that

313
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: rabbit hole with you today. But they need to pay

314
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: Trey Hendry until they do. Could could he be sitting

315
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 1: out Week one with an undisclosed injury potentially? What can

316
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 1: a team do? Can they find him? Can it? Sure?

317
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 1: They can? But again it doesn't work to anybody's favor.

318
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: You find him a lot of money, find him a

319
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 1: game check, you piss him off more, you put your

320
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: team in a harder spot. Maybe he walks away, maybe

321
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 1: he misses more games that just those things never work out,

322
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 1: so he has leverage here. The team is better off

323
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 1: just making him happy and paying him what he deserves.

324
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,479
Speaker 1: Maybe again, there's a middle ground there somewhere that they

325
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: can find. Hopefully it happens. Juwan Jennings another situation we're monitoring,

326
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: and Overridge hats you know for the Niners fans, but

327
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: it's a situation you got a monitor because because of

328
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: what he's asked for publicly to say either trade me

329
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,239
Speaker 1: or pay me. And I know Kyle Shanahan and all

330
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: the coaches are gonna say all the right things because

331
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 1: they're a team with a great coaching staff, a great culture,

332
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: a great front office staff, great team, great team mates.

333
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 1: But from the outside looking in, if you're just looking

334
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: at it objectively, knowing what you know, you say, Okay,

335
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: Juwan Jennings had this injury, and calf injuries are nagging

336
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: and they take a while, and you don't want them

337
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: to come back because once they come back. You got

338
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,640
Speaker 1: to sit for three four weeks anyway. So I understand

339
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: the patients and and and and Hey, we're gonna we're

340
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 1: gonna take our time. We're gonna make sure we get

341
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: it right. But from the outside looking in, when you

342
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,959
Speaker 1: make those demantic could look like you're holding in. And

343
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 1: so I'm glad Kyle Shanahan got ahead of it and said, hey,

344
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: now this is an injury. We understand. We're all on

345
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: the same page here, and I respect that. That's how

346
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: you put fires out and you put out potential speculation

347
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 1: that he could be holding out. But that's a situation

348
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: a monitor because I'm interested to see what the forty

349
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: nine ers do. Brandon and I you could still not

350
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: not playing Wreeky persol. Uh. You know it's back in

351
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,880
Speaker 1: the lineup, but he's been banged up. You've heard about

352
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: some young guys stepping up. They're bringing in guys because

353
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: they just don't have enough legs in the receiver room.

354
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 1: Right now, you all your your your foundational players are

355
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 1: showing up. Trem Williams showed up on time in shape.

356
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: They say, Nicholas John Bosa is having an incredible camp.

357
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 1: Fred Warner looks like the beast that he has been

358
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: all pro Fredy, the guys are there, George Kettle looks amazing,

359
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, the burst. Everything is still there. But you

360
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: need these receivers to show up, and Juwan Jennings technically

361
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 1: will be your one without Brandon Ayuk there, you know

362
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 1: Ricky Pursol maybe you know maybe one two, maybe they're both,

363
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 1: depending on how they're drawing the plays up. But from

364
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: a veteran perspective, he had almost a thousand yards last year.

365
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: He was very reliable and very consistently open, consistently getting separation,

366
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: consistently doing what he needs to do with both blocking

367
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,959
Speaker 1: and setting the tone in ball games. With his ability

368
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 1: to get open and make big plays. I think they're

369
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: going to have to do something. I think they're gonna

370
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: have to appease him, and I think once they do,

371
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 1: there might be a chance that he's back in practice

372
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: that day. I don't know. He kind of seems that

373
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 1: way though. As always, it's beautiful joining with you. I

374
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 1: will be in San Francisco for the training camp in

375
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,479

376
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,679
Speaker 1: incredible day. I'll be in Seattle at training camp for

Speaker 1: We're venturing out people. We're venturing out, we're taking it
