Welcome to the latest edition of 13 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 6: The Break. We are live from the s WBC Mortgage 14 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 6: Studios at the start. We got the full crew back 15 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 6: in today and it's a great day to have everybody 16 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 6: back at studio because today is cut down day. We're 17 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 6: going to be breaking that down for you guys. I 18 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 6: got my analysts here. They're going to tell you their 19 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,759 Speaker 6: best thoughts on what we think will happen here when 20 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 6: the Cowboys have to make their final cuts to get 21 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 6: down to the final fifty three man roster. Before we 22 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 6: do that, though, Cowboys make a move last week since 23 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 6: the last time we had a show. They acquire quarterback 24 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 6: Trey Lance for a fourth round pick. Let's start first 25 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 6: with what do you guys think was the strategy behind this? 26 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 6: Because I think that's where most of the conversation on 27 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 6: this move has been. What do you think was the 28 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 6: Cowboys strategy in going out of spending a fourth round 29 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 6: pick to pick up a guy like Trey Lance. 30 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 4: I think they're playing the long game. 31 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 5: Obviously, when you look at Trey Lance, you have to 32 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 5: look at where he is right now versus what the 33 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 5: scope of what he might do coming in, Because if 34 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 5: you look at it right now, that's more realistic to 35 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 5: what the Cowboys plan is going to be. They're trying 36 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 5: to develop him as a backup quarterback at worst case. 37 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 5: So worst case he's going to be your definitive backup 38 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 5: in the post Cooper Rush era, which could be as 39 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 5: early as twenty twenty four if Trey Lance develops quickly. 40 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 5: But I'm of the mindset and I'm of the understanding 41 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 5: and having these conversations. I know Brian has had him 42 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 5: as well. This move is in no way to leverage 43 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 5: against Dak Prescott that this is not that move. This 44 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 5: is something the Cowboys are looking at and saying, hey, 45 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 5: we're not going to pick up this guy's fifth year option. 46 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 5: So it's a two year plan, try to develop him. 47 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 5: If he turns into a definitive QB two, wonderful. You 48 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 5: gave up a fourth round pick for a definitive, definitive 49 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 5: developmental QB two. You've been trying to draft a development 50 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 5: guy for the past couple of years and you've not 51 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 5: done it. Best case is he develops well enough in 52 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 5: that you can maybe trade him in two years and 53 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 5: maybe you lose that fourth up front, but maybe you 54 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 5: get a third rounder if he can prove he can 55 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 5: be a capable NFL starter. So they played the long 56 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 5: game with Trey Lance, and the only problem I have 57 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 5: with it was just the compensation itself. The fourth rounder 58 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 5: was right there up against my herd line, which was 59 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 5: a fifth round pick. If you go back and listen 60 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 5: to what John Lynch said, what Shanahan said, they were 61 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 5: actually pleasantly surprised to get a fourth. But I know 62 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 5: the Cowboys are in a situation where they really wanted Trey, 63 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 5: and a couple of other teams came into the conversation. 64 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 5: Maybe those other teams through Fiths on the table, Jerry 65 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 5: Steven and will and say hey, let's just get it done. 66 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 4: Put a fourth on the table and here he is. 67 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I worked for a general manager. They gave up 68 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 2: an extra one for Joey Gallaway when he really didn't 69 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 2: have to, just he wanted the player that badly. And 70 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 2: I think it goes back to how they saw Trey 71 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 2: Lance grade wise. You know, when you look at where 72 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 2: he's out on their board top of the second round, 73 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 2: you know that's The Cowboys have a history of not 74 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 2: tanking seasons to get high draft picks. And the way 75 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: to get your quarterback, maybe it's a franchise or a 76 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: future quarterback for a lot of teams is be poor. 77 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 2: You have a bad season and pick in the top five. 78 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 2: Cowboys aren't going to do that. And they have a 79 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: history of this. They have a history of not they 80 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: we have a history of of you know, you go 81 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 2: back to when Jerry got the team and the Steve Walsh, 82 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: the supplemental picks. You go back and you think about 83 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: Quincy Carter, you go back when you start to think 84 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 2: about working out baseball players, you start to think about 85 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 2: all those things. It's never been a situation where we're 86 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 2: going to take the fourth overall pick and draft a quarterback. 87 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: Had an opportunity a couple of years ago to take 88 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: the tenth pick and maybe get Justin Fields. Didn't do that, 89 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 2: so they're more willing to try and say, listen, we 90 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 2: had this guy on our board to a certain spot, 91 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 2: he's available. The fourth round pick is to me, I 92 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 2: don't look at it as strongly as you do. And 93 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 2: I love to draft. I love picks. I think it's 94 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 2: something you can get back. You know, Dallas, last year, 95 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 2: you guys had some great audio and video of Jerry 96 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 2: Jones talking about Kansas City moving back five spots and 97 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 2: picking up at three. That's how things work. Don't worry 98 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 2: about that. You know. Where they need to What they 99 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 2: need to work on now is getting the player in 100 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 2: and getting him acclimated, and I mean acclimated when you 101 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 2: have twenty some odd coaches. Put these coaches to work. 102 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: There needs be post practice where he's out there with 103 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 2: scout team receivers, he's out there learning the offense. He 104 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 2: needs to have a practice after a practice is what 105 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: he really really needs. And you know, I think it's 106 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 2: more about at least gives you options. The thing with 107 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott, you might let this thing ride. This is 108 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 2: the one organization the general manager is not going anywhere. 109 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 2: He's not. That's just the way it's built in for 110 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: the organization. That's the way they operate, and that's just fine. 111 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 2: Most teams have a general manager that has to have 112 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 2: a quarterback or they get fired. So this team can 113 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 2: play a game where Okay, we're willing to move on. 114 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 2: We're not going to pay a quarterback fifty million dollars. 115 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 2: We're not going to do that. In two years, they 116 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 2: have those options. Maybe Trey Lance does develop enough to 117 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 2: where you say, we can we can sign him for this, 118 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 2: we can play him, and then we can build our 119 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 2: team around that. I think that's the direction really that 120 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 2: they're going with this addition. 121 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 8: Yeah, when the Cowboys, when the news started coming out, 122 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 8: it was one of those WTF moments, like what is 123 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 8: going on? But it makes sense now after you sit 124 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 8: and analyze the whole situation. It makes perfect sense. At 125 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 8: the time though, it just felt like when speaking about 126 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 8: a trade, the last thing on my mind would be 127 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:25,679 Speaker 8: to address the quarterback position. But if we remember getting 128 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 8: into the draft this year. Earlier this year, Jerry Jones 129 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 8: did come out and say they were going to draft 130 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 8: the quarterback and it did not play out that way. 131 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 8: They didn't, so, you know, quarterback was as part of 132 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 8: their needs in wanting to develop a younger guy. This 133 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 8: is not a proven guy, but I think it plays 134 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 8: into kind of what they were looking for and what 135 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 8: they've come out and said that they look for every 136 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 8: year in the off season to keep developing these young guys. 137 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 8: So makes perfect sense. Just very very crappy situation, which 138 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 8: I'm sure we're going to talk about Will Greer, but 139 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 8: the moment of when it happened and everything we experience 140 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 8: for that. 141 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 2: Game, I kind of feel like, though, this is just me, 142 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 2: and maybe it's the hardened personnel guy in me. If 143 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 2: Will gear would have played well for three weeks, maybe 144 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: you don't think about no, this effect, you don't think 145 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 2: about this, you know, and and yeah, it's terrible timing, 146 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: But you're also in a situation where they talk about 147 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 2: this and they're very proud of this. They talk about 148 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 2: personal acquisition as a twenty four to seven job around here, 149 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 2: you know, your job is to build your team, whether 150 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 2: you know you feel like you got a third quarterback 151 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 2: or you don't, or you have the opportunity to add 152 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 2: a guy you had on your board in the second round. 153 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 2: You know, these things present themselves throughout and we can 154 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: cry for Argentina and all that stuff like that when 155 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 2: it comes to Will Greer after a game. But me, 156 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 2: I'm kind of my thought is I'm thinking, like, bro, 157 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 2: if you'd have played well in three weeks, the three 158 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 2: weeks you had an opportunity to play, maybe they don't 159 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 2: make this decision, you know. And I'm all about team building. 160 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 2: I'm all about trying to get better. 161 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 4: You know. 162 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 2: Maybe that's the personal side of the business I kind 163 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 2: of pull myself back from. But I think he should 164 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: have Dak calling the place for him. 165 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, maybe that was that, Maybe that was the extra 166 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 8: you know. 167 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 2: I give Dak a lot of credit. And I was 168 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 2: critical of this because in the in our pregame show, 169 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 2: I was sitting there thinking, if I was a player 170 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 2: that was fighting for my job, I would, you know, 171 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 2: do you think enough of me to do everything in 172 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: your power to help me maybe make this team? 173 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 4: You know? 174 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 2: And I and I thought Dak called the place. Yeah, 175 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: it's unusual and all that. If one of the other 176 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 2: assistants would have called plays, I kind of understand. But 177 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 2: to me, you know, it's one of those things that 178 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 2: was kind of strange. The way it went out, it 179 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 2: worked out fine. Dak did a hell of a job, 180 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 2: he really did. And you know, into Wilger's credit, he 181 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 2: did a hell of a job too. He just needed 182 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 2: to do a hell of a job against Jacksonville and 183 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 2: Seattle and then also this Raider team. And maybe they're 184 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 2: not thinking about this, maybe they're not thinking about Trey Lance. 185 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, but you know, I think the thing about it is, 186 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 6: even if let's say, Will may have played better earlier 187 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 6: in the preseason, I still think this is a treat 188 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 6: in intriguing opportunity for the Cowboys Tree Lance. I mean, 189 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 6: they had a very high grade on this guy, as 190 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 6: you mentioned, Amber, they went into the draft this year thinking, Hey, 191 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 6: if we have an opportunity to pick up a quarterback, 192 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 6: we'd want to do it. And so you knew that 193 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 6: that was something they wanted to improve on. And the 194 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 6: way I look at it is, I really don't think 195 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,719 Speaker 6: this is necessarily about Dak. This is about talent acquisition. 196 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 6: But your old boss, Bill Parcells used to say it. 197 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 6: We're in the talent acquisition bits, right, and at a 198 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 6: position like quarterback, you can never have too many really 199 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 6: good quarterbacks. Let's say he develops into a really great quarterback. 200 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 6: That doesn't necessarily mean he'll be here. That doesn't necessarily 201 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 6: mean that Dak will be gone. What that means is 202 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 6: you may have two good quarterbacks and then you may say, Okay, 203 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 6: which one do we think gives us the best chance 204 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 6: to win now in the future, And whichever other one 205 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 6: you got, maybe you decide we're going to keep Dak. 206 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 6: We're gonna re up the deal. We're willing to pay 207 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 6: him fifty million or whatever that number is. And guess what, 208 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 6: NFL we're open for business. Who wants who wants Trey 209 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 6: Lance on their team? After we've shown you in the 210 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 6: preseason in a game or two, he can do some things. 211 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 6: And we've got you intrigued. Now talking to all the 212 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 6: other teams, and those other thirty one teams now come bidding. 213 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 6: That's where this is an advantage for the Cowboys more 214 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 6: so than anything you could have gotten from Will Greer. 215 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 6: Like there are gonna be teams that are beating down 216 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 6: your door for Will Grear. Now you start showing a 217 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 6: former first round pick, number three overall pick that now 218 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 6: is starting to show progress. You're gonna have a lot 219 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 6: of teams who are very interested in possibly trading for him. 220 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 6: That's the value of going out and getting Trey Lance 221 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 6: for a fourth round pick and maybe turning that into 222 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 6: a first round And that's a second round pick, whatever 223 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 6: round pick you can get if you decide to part with. 224 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 5: It's a Bill BELICHICKI in model right, And no, I'm 225 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 5: not comparing Dak Prescott to Tom Brady. But if you're 226 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 5: talking as far as the business model is concerned, was 227 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 5: there in New England they went and got Jimmy G right, 228 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 5: and they got Jimmy G and they let Jimmy G 229 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,599 Speaker 5: develop behind Tom Brady. Then eventually they flipped Jimmy G 230 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 5: to San Francisco. So to your point, to my point earlier, 231 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 5: this is what I feel like is the best case 232 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 5: scenario for the Cowboys. And yes, of course they're gonna 233 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 5: have options if Trey Lance develops, but he would have 234 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 5: to develop in order to supplant Dek Prescott. He would 235 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 5: have to develop at strides that would blow our minds 236 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 5: between now and a possible contract extension. And I just 237 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 5: don't see it because it's not Trey Lance versus Deck 238 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 5: right now, it's Tree Lance versus Cooper Rush. 239 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 2: But it gives you options. It gives you options. And 240 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: like I said, there's going to be a team that's 241 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 2: not going to pay a quarterback that is a top 242 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 2: ten quarterback fifty eight million dollars. Good, there's not gonna 243 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 2: be somebody's gonna somebody's gonna step up. They say it's 244 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 2: more important that you know, why do all these teams 245 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: have success or talk about the success that they have 246 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 2: with a quarterback that's under a rookie contract, because that 247 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 2: takes up the majority of your cap. So to me, 248 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 2: I think it gives them options. I don't think this 249 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 2: is I don't think this the plan here was, Hey, 250 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 2: let's let's get Trey Lance and trade him. I don't 251 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: think that's the plan. I think the plan here is 252 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 2: to really figure out if Trey Lance could play. That 253 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 2: I think is the plan. 254 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 6: Right, that's the plan, But I think all options are 255 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 6: open to them, right, So I don't think that I 256 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 6: agree with you. I don't think their plan going in 257 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 6: was we're going to get him to trade him. I 258 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 6: do think their plan was we're going to get him 259 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 6: to develop him, and then we will see what happens. Right, 260 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 6: Maybe we decide to trade him. Maybe we decided to 261 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 6: keep him right, Maybe he's our backup, maybe he's maybe 262 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 6: there's some universe where he's good enough to be a starter. 263 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 6: The point is they wanted to develop him because of 264 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 6: where he was drafted in the Great They had him, 265 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 6: no question. They figured they could get that out of him, 266 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 6: no question, right, or at least wanted to give a try. 267 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, it just gives you a lot more options to 268 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 2: think about if, in fact, the quarterback numbers get crazy. 269 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 2: You know, there might be a situation with the Cowboys 270 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 2: that they let this contract with Dak Riot the next 271 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 2: two years and see where they're at. 272 00:12:58,760 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 4: You know. 273 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 6: The interesting part about it that theory of that route, 274 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 6: if they decided to go that route, they would be 275 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 6: then toward the end of Trey Lance's deal. Right, it 276 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 6: means they don't get the benefit of that first year 277 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 6: contract with him either, because if they've developed him right now, 278 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 6: his agent's gonna say, hey, man, I want that same 279 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 6: money all these other quarterbacks out there are getting. 280 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 2: Right, it might be a situation where you're not where 281 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 2: you're not paying fifty eight million dollars to a guy either. 282 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 6: Maybe too, Yeah, maybe all right, we appreciate you guys 283 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 6: joining us. We got a lot more to go. We're 284 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 6: gonna get into the second and third segments today.

I know that we get into the 349 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 6: habit of talking about NFL players as though they are commodities. 350 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 6: But let's remember they are people, and so our conversation today, 351 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 6: although we're going to be talking about guys losing their jobs, 352 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 6: we're going to be respectful of them. And for those 353 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 6: of you out there who will be talking about them 354 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 6: on social media, remember these are people with families who 355 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 6: will be For some of them, this will be the 356 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 6: end of their football careers, and so we'll talk about 357 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 6: it with respect. But at the same time, we will 358 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:04,919 Speaker 6: talk about who's going to make this team and who 359 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 6: will not. We're going to go through each position, and 360 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 6: what I want you guys to do is I want 361 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 6: you to do two things. One, I want you to 362 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 6: tell me how many people at this position you think 363 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 6: they'll keep, and then give me the names of those 364 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,479 Speaker 6: that you think will stick around. I'll throw there some 365 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 6: names out there for you to help you out and 366 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 6: then we'll try to see if we can narrow this 367 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 6: thing down. So let's talk about the quarterback position. I 368 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 6: think this one should move pretty quickly. We all, I think, agree, 369 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 6: three quarterbacks Dak Prescott, Cooper, Rush, Trey Lance. All agreed, agreed, agreed. 370 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 6: Let's move on to the running back position. How many 371 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 6: do you think they'll keep? And who do they keep? 372 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 6: They got Tony Pollard, Rico'dodellduce, Fawn, Ronald Jones, Malik Davis, 373 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 6: maybe even Hunter Lepke had a nice game in the 374 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 6: final preseason game. If you want to keep a fullback, 375 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 6: maybe he would be your guy. What do you think 376 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 6: will happen at the running back position? 377 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 5: I'm carrying three three. I'm going Pilard, Dowdle, and Deuce. 378 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 5: I'm trying to get Malik and Hunter lip Key back 379 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 5: onto the practice squad. 380 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 2: Agreed. 381 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 8: Hmm, same retweet repost post. 382 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 6: So in that exit in that you guys are completely 383 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 6: moving away from Ronald Jones. 384 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 4: Unfortunate. 385 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 2: Well, he's on suspended list. So what I'm doing is 386 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 2: I'm putting them on. Yeah, but he's I don't have 387 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,160 Speaker 2: to waive him or anything like that. I'm just gonna 388 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 2: put him on the suspended list, and after two weeks, 389 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 2: if something happens with my running backs, have him there. 390 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 4: I got you. 391 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 6: So you're you're just deferring the decision. But if nothing happens, 392 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 6: you're saying at the end of two weeks, you would 393 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 6: let him walk. 394 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, if if nothing happens, If nothing happens, right, which, 395 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 2: but I'm going to use the suspended list to my advantage, Davi. 396 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 6: Now now that this is just to be clear, the 397 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 6: suspension list is not the same as like, for example, 398 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 6: if you wanted to keep a guy that you were 399 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 6: going to ultimately put on IR, you would have to 400 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 6: put them on the roster first, then move them divers, 401 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 6: so they have to be on that fifty three initially. 402 00:18:58,560 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 6: It's not the same for the suspension list. 403 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 2: Okay, straight, you could go in that category. 404 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 6: Got it perfect, So everybody agrees three running backs, it 405 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 6: would be Tony pollat Rico Dawdle, and Douce Vaughan on 406 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 6: the final roster. 407 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 4: Yes, got it all right. 408 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 6: Let's move on to wide receiver. How many you keep 409 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 6: and who do you keep? Ceedee Lamb, Brandon Cooks, Michael Gallup, 410 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 6: Jalen Tolbert Cavante, Turpin, Simmi Fijoko, Jalen Brooks. Maybe even 411 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 6: where do you go? 412 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: I go with six and Simmi Forjoko's off that list 413 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 2: that you had for me. So I went with I 414 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 2: went with Cooks, Turpin, Gallop, Tolbert and then, uh, Lamb 415 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:37,120 Speaker 2: is what I went. 416 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 6: So Lamb, Cooks, Gallop, Tolbert, Turpin. And you said, Brooks, 417 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 6: is that six? That's six? 418 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 2: That's six? You go five? 419 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 4: No, I'm right there with you on six. 420 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 5: The conversation I was having in my head was Jalen 421 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:52,479 Speaker 5: Brooks versus Semi Fojoko. 422 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 6: All right, so let's have that debate. You're saying you go, Brian, 423 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 6: You're saying you go Brooks. Yeah, you tell me why 424 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 6: Simmi Fijoko would be a better option than Brooks. 425 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 4: I think Simmy is well. 426 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 5: The thing with Jalen Brooks says he came in and 427 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 5: came on strong strong camp, you know strong preseason as well. 428 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 5: Simmy had an up and down training camp. When it 429 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 5: was down, it was down. When it was up, it 430 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 5: was way up. So but Simmy also has a longer 431 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 5: tenure within this current system. The familiarity with the coaching staff, 432 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 5: Dak Prescott, Cooper Rush obviously, so there's a lot to 433 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 5: be said for that as well as far as value 434 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 5: is concerned. But the more I think about it, it's 435 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 5: fifty one to forty nine. 436 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 4: I'm right there with Brian. 437 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 5: I think that you get Jalen Brooks on the fifty 438 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 5: three and then I would try to get Simmy on 439 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 5: the practice squad. 440 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 4: So but yeah, probably could. Yeah, and I think you could. 441 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 5: I think there's a greater chance that you get Simmy 442 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 5: on the practice squad than you'd Getjalen Brooks on the 443 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 5: practice squad. So because that's also a part of the 444 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 5: equation as well, when you're talking about these roster cuts, 445 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 5: who of these two players, whatever the two players might 446 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 5: be in that conversation, if you want both of them 447 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 5: to remain in Dallas, who has the better chance of us, 448 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 5: you know, make it to the practice squad in this instance, 449 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 5: I think it'd be semi over Jalen. So for me, 450 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 5: I'm right there with Brian. Take a little convincing of myself, 451 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 5: but I'm right there. Gallup cooks lamb Tobert Turpin because 452 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 5: Turpin has to have a spot, and then I'll go 453 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 5: Jalen Brooks close call fifty one to forty nine. 454 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 2: Man, I just debated on this position almost kept five. 455 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 2: And you know, because everybody keeps telling me that Jalen 456 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 2: Brooks could play special teams, you know, and I haven't 457 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 2: seen it where with my eyes and I really focus 458 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 2: on trying to find him on special teams. They talk 459 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 2: about him as a as a gunner, they talk about 460 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 2: him on all these the cover guy, they talk about 461 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 2: him in all these ways. I was kind of waiting 462 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 2: for that for Simmi Fajoko. I think Simmi Fajoco has 463 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 2: had his opportunity. You know, health hasn't always been in 464 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 2: his favor. But I feel like though that with Brooks, 465 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 2: from what I've seen from him, his ability to go 466 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 2: get the football, they're crossing routes that he's able to run, 467 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 2: the potential for some special teams. Of he's going to 468 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 2: be the sixth receiver, he's going to probably be inactive 469 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 2: every single week. But I think to have the assurance 470 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 2: of a guy that can play the special teams. You know, 471 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 2: he looks like the game's not too big for him. 472 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 2: You know, he comes in, he makes plays. You know, 473 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 2: he works with Dak I think exceptionally well. So to me, 474 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 2: that's why I took a chance on keeping him, just 475 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 2: because I think there's a little bit more to his game. 476 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 2: I kind of understand what semiardy is. See. 477 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 8: That was what made the difference for me is the 478 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 8: fact that even though they're kind of right there, I 479 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 8: feel more intrigued about Jalen Brooks and what he can 480 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 8: give you. I want to see more of him, as 481 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 8: opposed to Fehoko that we've had somewhat a longer time 482 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 8: period to be with him and look at him, I'm like, Okay, 483 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 8: he's still kind of developing, But what Jalen Brooks has 484 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 8: giving you in this short amount of time just keeps 485 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 8: me a lot more intrigued in wanting to see him 486 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 8: more of him and then not ready to part ways 487 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 8: with him just yet. 488 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 5: Well, the great point that Brian made is when it 489 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 5: comes to Semi Fooko coming into this training camp, it 490 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 5: was just all about can he remain healthy and if 491 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 5: he remains healthy, can he challenge for WR four? Well, 492 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 5: jaln Tobert ran away with WR four and now here 493 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 5: we are having the conversation not Simmi versus Tobert, Semi 494 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 5: versus the other Jalen the seventh round pick. So in 495 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 5: that instance, yeah, you now you add in what you've 496 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 5: seen from Jalen Brooks as far as potentially is concerned, 497 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 5: and you don't write off Semi foro Hoko completely, but 498 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 5: you do look yourself in the mirror and say, hey, 499 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 5: you gotta be more intrigued with Jalen Brooks right now 500 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 5: and then try to get Semi on the practice clad. 501 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,199 Speaker 6: You know, I would even make the argument I go 502 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 6: to what Brian kind of mentioned there. I think I 503 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 6: would go five at this position. The way I look 504 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 6: at this is somewhere well exactly, I look at this defense. 505 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 6: I think it's gonna be a much tougher cut. You're 506 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 6: gonna you would be cutting some very valuable players if 507 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 6: you start cutting down into that defense, particularly the secondary 508 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 6: and maybe the defensive line. So that being said, I 509 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,959 Speaker 6: think I would go at five because I feel like 510 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 6: the five are a very very strong five. I think 511 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 6: you got a good rotation with those five. And here's 512 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 6: the interesting part. I actually think you can get both 513 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 6: these players to your practice squad. One thing I've learned 514 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 6: over the years is we watch a Jalen Brooks throughout 515 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 6: training camp, and we think, man, there's no way you're 516 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 6: getting into your practice squad. And the fact of the 517 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 6: matter is every team, every camp has a Jalen Brooks. 518 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 6: They have somebody that showed up in your camp that 519 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 6: it's like, oh my gosh, this receiver is so great, 520 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 6: and so you can probably get both those guys to 521 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 6: your practice squad. So if an injury happens to one 522 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 6: of your top five, you could immediately move one of 523 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 6: those guys up. You don't necessarily have to keep them 524 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 6: on your your fifty three, and that allows you to 525 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 6: then go deep in some other positions. That's how I 526 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 6: would look at. 527 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 4: You could sell me on five. 528 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 5: It wouldn't be a tough sell because if we're talking 529 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 5: about who's the plus one Jalen Brooks versus send me 530 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 5: for Hoko, It's not a hill that I'm willing to 531 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 5: die on if that death comes at the risk of 532 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 5: someone on defense, for example, particularly that defensive front that 533 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 5: you really just don't want to let go of. Isaiah 534 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 5: Land comes to minding that. 535 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,239 Speaker 6: Kind of him, So don't worry about that, right, But 536 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 6: that's my point, Like, it's that kind of guy, like 537 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 6: you want a Jalen or you want an Isaiah Lamb. 538 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 2: Get the defense. I'm going to blow you away with 539 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 2: what I did on defense. Yeah, I think so. 540 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 6: All right, let's move on. Let's get to our tight 541 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,479 Speaker 6: ends again. I think this one might be a fairly 542 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 6: easy one to. 543 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 2: Do this after injury, like right the week. 544 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think you got four and Jake Ferguson, Luke 545 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 6: spoon Maker, Peyton Hendershot, Sean mceun. We all agree, all agree, yes, 546 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,119 Speaker 6: all right, perfect, All right, let's move on the offensive line. 547 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 6: This gets a little dicey when you start talking about 548 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 6: how many you actually think you will keep. So right now, 549 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 6: you've got guys like, obviously Tyron Smith, Terrence Steele, Zach Martin, 550 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 6: Tyler Smith, Tyler Baddish, those five. 551 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 4: Will be there. 552 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 6: Those are your starters. Then you've got guys like Austome Richards, TJ. Bass, 553 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 6: Who's come on. You got a Matt Farniac, Matt Well, 554 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 6: let's go, guys who've been here a little while. You 555 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 6: got the veteran that you brought in Odoga. You got 556 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 6: guys like Josh Ball, brock Kauffman, Alec Linstrom. How many 557 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 6: do you keep? And who are the names that stay 558 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 6: outside of that top five, I got ten, You got ten. 559 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 6: Give me your other five outside of the top five. 560 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 2: Okay, I went just naming them off in order. Here, 561 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 2: Bey Oddish Bass, I didn't mind in the orders of numbers, 562 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 2: So the Jersey numbers, Bey Oddish Bass, Martin a dooga. 563 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 2: That hurt me, but I did it. Tyler Smith, I 564 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 2: think Josh Ball is going to be on the roster 565 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 2: one day and then I move and then move in 566 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 2: awesome Richards, Tyron Smith, Terrence Steele, Matt Will Let's go. Now, 567 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 2: this is what I did. 568 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 6: Which did you leave out? 569 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 2: I left out? This is what I did. I'm gonna 570 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 2: freak people out with this one. I cut Lenstrom the center, 571 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 2: Hoffman the center, and Fartiac the center. 572 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was gonna say, who's your back what's your 573 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 6: back up center? 574 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 2: What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna try and get 575 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 2: one of those guys to the practice squad and then 576 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 2: that is to be I'm gonna yo yo, that guy 577 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 2: as the backup off the practice squad is what I'm 578 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 2: gonna do. 579 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 6: Okay, So let me talk me through. What do you 580 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 6: do in game if your center goes down? 581 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 2: Well, that's what I'm saying I'm gonna put so. 582 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 6: You made one of those every week, will get moved up. 583 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 2: Exactly, got exactly exactly. I'm gonna play the Yo yo 584 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 2: game with my back up. 585 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 6: Three times, so you just rotate the three of them. 586 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 2: And maybe injuries take care of themselves or something happens 587 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 2: and I'm able to put one of those guys on 588 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 2: full time. But I'm gonna go, I'm gonna, I'm gonna 589 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 2: I'm gonna cut three guys the like I say, Lindstrom, 590 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 2: Hoffman and Farniac. 591 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 6: Do you risk losing Farniac just because offensive line is 592 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,400 Speaker 6: such a position. It is it's a premium place where 593 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 6: people are looking for bodies, right. 594 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. But I also want to keep Isaiah 595 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 2: Land on my team. So that's that. Now, this is 596 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 2: where I start to play the game of who would 597 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 2: I rather have? And I kind of feel like, Okay, 598 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 2: if you know Lindstrom, I don't think will get claimed. 599 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 2: Hoffman is interesting because he's not gonna to fit everybody's eye. 600 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 2: He doesn't look like your typical NFL lineman, but they 601 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 2: really really like him. Farniac has shown he can play 602 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 2: in games. He did it last year. But I don't 603 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,360 Speaker 2: know if it's enough to where we'll see. I mean 604 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 2: there's some teams. I was talking to a team this 605 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 2: morning that traded for a center yesterday, and you know, 606 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 2: they were asking me about all these centers and I said, 607 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 2: I put them all in the street, and they're like, hmm, 608 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,640 Speaker 2: that's interesting. So we'll see if they get these guys through. 609 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 2: But I on my list. I did it. 610 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 4: I'm going this is going to be kind of kind 611 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 4: of funny. 612 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 5: I'm going nine today, but I'll have ten before the 613 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 5: team flies to New York. 614 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 6: I got you. I know that game, right, So they 615 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 6: said trade for one. Yeah, so look for claim one, 616 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 6: which is also the reason why you put all those 617 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 6: centers out there. You might not be able to get 618 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 6: all of them. They may not be available to Yeah. 619 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 5: So I'm going nine with the initial cuts, but my 620 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 5: goal is to add a plus one. 621 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 6: Who are the four that you're. 622 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 5: Going to keep up besides behind side the top of five, 623 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 5: I'm I'm going Awsome Richards brock Hoffman. I'm sending Josh 624 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 5: Ball to season ending. 625 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 6: I are, but you have to get him on the 626 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 6: roster initially. 627 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 2: He's outright just putting them on. 628 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 4: So you visit him next year. 629 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 6: Huh. 630 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 5: So that's why I with that because and this is 631 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 5: going to what Brian is talking about. Now, you start 632 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 5: to play the roster game as far as Okay, well, 633 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 5: if I have to carry josh Ball for one day, 634 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 5: that means I have to risk somebody to waivers or 635 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 5: let him go. 636 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 4: Right, then the. 637 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 5: Question becomes how severe is josh Bo's injury? In addition 638 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 5: to the type of injury itself, this is soft tissue 639 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 5: hip slash growing on an offensive lineman. Reports are that 640 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 5: it's multiple weeks. McCarthy said, Sid, it's multiple weeks, it could. 641 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 4: Easily drag out. 642 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 6: I get that. But here's here's where I would wonder, 643 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 6: does it really help you? Because josh Ball, I think 644 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 6: we all agree agree, is a player that really needs work. 645 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 6: He needs some development. He's not going to get development 646 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 6: if he's not even practicing with your team. So what's 647 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 6: the point of putting him on IR You're basically just 648 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 6: saying player that needs development can't get it, and we're 649 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 6: going to start back over next year where he already is. 650 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 6: Because I just don't know if that's helping him. 651 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 5: Because my question on him is, let's say in that 652 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 5: situation right, And you're completely correct. But if he's not 653 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 5: ready to even begin his on field work until November 654 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 5: hypothetically December, what did you just do? 655 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 6: That's game that that's two maybe two and a half 656 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 6: months of on field work for him still because but no, 657 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 6: the coaches, the coaches value those practice sessions because those 658 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 6: practice sessions, you can't get that back in the off season. 659 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 6: Right that that's time that he could be getting work, 660 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 6: that they could be looking at him, they could be 661 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 6: developing him. I still think it's valuable time that they 662 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 6: just don't get back. 663 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 2: I kept him acted because I know in November I 664 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 2: can't find an offensive tackle. 665 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 6: Very true. 666 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 2: I mean I've sat there and my my personnel board 667 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 2: in November looks like a Thanksgiving Day turkey after everybody 668 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 2: has had their sitting there. 669 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 6: It's nothing but skin and bone caring up. 670 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 2: That thing looks like that board looks. And I know, 671 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 2: if I have an opportunity, if I can bring Josh 672 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 2: Ball back, and you're you're not wrong with him, it's rehab. 673 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 2: The practice stuff will be important. But I know in 674 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 2: November I can't find a tackle, and that's why I'm 675 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 2: keeping him. 676 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 5: Then the question becomes what was he as far as 677 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 5: ability concern as far as development, and. 678 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 2: Was he had the parking lot well against the Seattle 679 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 2: right before I was I was ready to move on 680 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 2: him and a doga and guys like that. 681 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 4: So that's my point. 682 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 5: If he had one foot in the parking lot before 683 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 5: he suffered a major injury, and when he is available 684 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 5: to come back, he's not coming back in his prime form, 685 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 5: and then his prime form had one foot out the door. Anyway, 686 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 5: I just it's like and it becomes maybe the Jason 687 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 5: Peters conversation on the back half, because we talked about that. 688 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 5: You bring in a veteran, particularly if Jason Peters, for example, 689 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 5: is available, you know you're not going to get seventeen 690 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 5: plus the postseason from him. If things are skinny and 691 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 5: you're looking at the bones of the situation in late 692 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 5: November early December, you can get you know, eight nine 693 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 5: games out of Jason Peter. So that becomes the conversation 694 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 5: that I'm more comfortable with having. I mean, we'll see 695 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 5: more comfortable with having versus. 696 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 2: You're kneeling down rolling. 697 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a lot, man. 698 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 5: So that's where I am on my four would be 699 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 5: Austoin Richards, brock Hoffman, Matt will Let's go, and Matt Fontiac. 700 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 6: The only way you did yeah, okay initially did I 701 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 6: don't know if you just. 702 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 8: And last game, I was songing on the sideline with 703 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 8: Tyler Smith and I asked him, I'm like, hey, what's it. 704 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 8: Who's the guy who has made the biggest jump in 705 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 8: the O line?

So that's always exciting to see 709 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 8: and here from a teammate.

That's uh. 808 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,680 Speaker 2: Those are the guys that I took off the list. 809 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 2: But the notables I went to, Quentin Bohanna and Neville Gallimore. 810 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: Off the list. 811 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 6: You ready give up on those guys at this point 812 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 6: I moved on, all right. 813 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 4: This is interesting, all right. 814 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,720 Speaker 5: So I'm just going to give you the defensive line, 815 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 5: all right, and so for me, you got tomorrow because 816 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 5: Lawrence Mazzie Smith, Olso Diggi Zua, Michael Parsons that you 817 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 5: can split hairs as he you. 818 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 6: Know, de or I see linebacker, but he's he's there. 819 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 5: Sam Williams, Jonathan Hankins, I kept Nevill Gallimore, Durrance Armstrong 820 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 5: Junior for Hoko, Dante Fowler. Notable cuts for me, Quentin 821 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 5: Bohanna and Chauncey Ghoston. So you are I'm keeping land, 822 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 5: keeping land, so you're you're walking and Bohannah, Yeah, Quentin 823 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 5: Bhannah and Chauncey Ghoston are my notable cuts. So Isaiah 824 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 5: Lamb makes my fifty. 825 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 6: Three man rocks okay, and where are your linebacker. 826 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:41,879 Speaker 5: Linebackers Layton vander Risch the Monk Clark. This is where 827 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 5: it gets wow, because the problem I have is Jabrill 828 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 5: Cox versus Devin Harper versus Milie Jefferson. Jefferson came on strong, 829 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:51,879 Speaker 5: Jack Warris went down with the foot injury. 830 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 4: Didn't play since settlement. 831 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, Devin Harper though, so it's Devin Harper versus Jabrill Cox. 832 00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 4: Three minimum. 833 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 5: I'm probably running four because I lost to Marveion Overshown, 834 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 5: So I keep Devin Harper and Jabril Cox, and then 835 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 5: you're gonna you're gonna ask both of those guys to 836 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:09,800 Speaker 5: do especially Cox. 837 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 4: What do you mean? 838 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 8: I just I hear. 839 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,719 Speaker 5: And started off camp very strong, which rolled off of 840 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 5: a strong OTAs and mini camp. The back half of 841 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 5: camp cool down a bit. But I wonder if that's 842 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 5: true outright or if that's true contextually based on what 843 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 5: we saw the Marveon overshan putting on the field, and 844 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,439 Speaker 5: then we looked at Jabril Cox and said, why aren't 845 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 5: you doing what the rookie's doing. So it might be 846 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,360 Speaker 5: a combination of the two things, but losing to Marvion Overshown, 847 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 5: I can't run light at linebacker. Even if I'm looking 848 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 5: for Marquise Bell to try to contribute in that flex role, 849 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,760 Speaker 5: I still can't run like at true linebacker. 850 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 2: That's a place I'm looking to claim. If I'm gonna 851 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 2: probably claim players, I'm looking at linebackers. 852 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 6: Because of the claim, because what you're really looking for 853 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 6: are special teams guys that are the linebacker position. You 854 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 6: can probably find those guys out on the guys on 855 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 6: the waiver wire. 856 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 2: They play so much dime, so much nickel on this team. 857 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 2: I wonder it kind of it kind of swayed me. 858 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 2: I moved on from Jabril Cox. I think there were 859 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 2: some things. His strength is supposedly coverage, and there were 860 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 2: times where he wasn't good in coverage, and there were 861 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 2: times where you watch him play at the point of 862 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 2: attack and he really wasn't good defending the run. So 863 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 2: I that's just me. You know, I've not talked to 864 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,640 Speaker 2: anybody in the organization about that at all, but I 865 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:26,959 Speaker 2: kind of feel like that they'll they'll move on there. 866 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 6: So you're thinking l ve Dmoon Clark are the only 867 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 6: two you're keeping you and then obviously Mikeah if Micah 868 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:34,200 Speaker 6: is the line exactly. 869 00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 2: I think, to me, like I've listed I've listed Micah 870 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 2: as a linebacker, is what I've done. So those three 871 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 2: I've got, I've got Parsons, Clark Harper, Yeah, and then 872 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 2: h vander Esh So I got four with the possibility 873 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 2: of claiming some guys if I if I need to. 874 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 8: See, I'm right with I like Bryan's list. The only 875 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 8: guy that I don't think I'm ready to move on 876 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,879 Speaker 8: for from just yet it's Neville Gallimore. But then for 877 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 8: that name, I'm not sure who am I taking off. 878 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 5: It's probably gonna be it's Galimore versus Bohanna versus Chauncey Ghoston. 879 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:15,360 Speaker 4: That's kind of what it bes down to. 880 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,800 Speaker 8: And I think he's to me right now, he's slightly 881 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 8: ahead of Bohanna, just because based on every time that 882 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 8: I've looked, it's always been more of Gallimore that I've 883 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 8: seen versus Bohanna, so that I think, yeah, that's that's 884 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 8: the only change. And then my concerns about Jabriel Cox 885 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 8: just from things that I've heard around the building, just 886 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 8: mixed opinions about him, but totally agree as far as bodies, Yeah, 887 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 8: you need it unless you bring in some other guy. 888 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 8: That you pick up from another team. 889 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 2: That's cut all right, real quick. I moved on from 890 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 2: Bohanna and then also Gallimore. I don't want the excuses 891 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,760 Speaker 2: for not to play Mazzie Smith. That's what I'm thinking about. 892 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 5: I think that moving on from but Hannah does eliminate 893 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 5: that excuse. I don't know that releasing Gallimore would create 894 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 5: that excuse. I think Gallimore's presence doesn't change the Massie 895 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 5: Smith rep count for me. 896 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 2: And well, that's I think Chauncey Golston would be my 897 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,360 Speaker 2: three or my UNDERDA. That's that's where I think Gallimore 898 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 2: would be. But I don't want anybody telling me, oh, 899 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 2: we've got two guys ahead of Mazzie Smithy. Just play him, 900 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 2: you know, either figure out he's good enough or he's not. 901 00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 2: So I'm not going to leave an excuse. 902 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:26,919 Speaker 6: And I do wonder though, when you start thinking about 903 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 6: it from that standpoint, like does that mean that you're 904 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 6: gonna have to really count on Golsen to play a lot, 905 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 6: because that at that point you only got I don't 906 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 6: think Mazzi or Hankins are going to be lying up 907 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 6: a three technique unless they're in a heavy format where 908 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:39,799 Speaker 6: they're really just trying to stop. 909 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,240 Speaker 2: It's funny where Mozzi's played some Why technique, Why three 910 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 2: and some and it's actually looked pretty good doing it. Yeah, 911 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 2: because he just gets you know it, just straight up, 912 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 2: just right up the field kind of a thing. 913 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 6: Do you think he might be there may be some 914 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,399 Speaker 6: opportunities for him and Hankins to be on the field 915 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:53,879 Speaker 6: same time. 916 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 2: Exactly I'm keeping him? Is that one or that knows? 917 00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 2: But I also know that there's spend times where he 918 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 2: has played a wide shade is what they call outside shoulder, 919 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 2: and he's been okay. So but I I don't want 920 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:08,920 Speaker 2: to hear like there's two guys ahead of him and 921 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 2: they don't want to play him. Play him, just play 922 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 2: him and figure it out. 923 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 6: See where he goes. All right, let's real quick. Get 924 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 6: to the defensive backs, another tough position to cut. You 925 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 6: got cornerbacks where you got Trayvon Diggs and Stefan Gilmour 926 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 6: and Deron Bland and Jordan Lewis as probably your top four, 927 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 6: and then a guy like C. J. Goodwin who's your 928 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 6: special teamer. Do you go deeper than that or do 929 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,520 Speaker 6: you see yourself cutting people like Kelvin Joseph Nashaun Wright 930 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 6: or Eric Scott. 931 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:39,280 Speaker 5: I go five cornerbacks obviously digs, Gilmore Bland, I activate 932 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,319 Speaker 5: join Lewis this week. There's my four in my fifth 933 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 5: of CJ. Goodwin because he's your definitive special team days 934 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:45,759 Speaker 5: and you just don't move on from him, so. 935 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 6: You move away from the Sean Wright, who's a guy 936 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 6: that still is I think obviously somebody that you like 937 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 6: practice squad. 938 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. 939 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I put him on I put would absolutely make 940 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:55,320 Speaker 2: it to the presers. I put right on the active 941 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 2: roster for one day and I'm gonna put him on 942 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:57,840 Speaker 2: IR the next. 943 00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 4: That's fair. 944 00:43:58,280 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 2: It's what I'm gonna do. And then that way I 945 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 2: could get him out of he I could just kind 946 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 2: of keep him in the building. Yeah, I think there's 947 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 2: some flexibility with Micualmou if you want to play it, 948 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 2: or if. 949 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 6: They did that last year for a game or two. 950 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Jordan, You're absolutely right everything I'm hearing about, 951 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 2: Jordan Lewis. Is there the same plan that they did 952 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:17,760 Speaker 2: with Gallimore Gallop last year, you know, keep him active 953 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 2: and let him get ready. 954 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 6: Okay, what are you thinking about? So you both are 955 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 6: are willing to part ways with both Kelvin Joseph and 956 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 6: Eric Scott. 957 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 5: Yes, I did, Yes, I think that while Eric Scott 958 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 5: has had a strong camp as far as practices are concerned, 959 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 5: as far as the games are concerned, he's been caught 960 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 5: a few times with his eyes in the backfield, there's 961 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 5: still some development there. I'm still high on the kid. 962 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,359 Speaker 5: I think that his ceiling is quite high, just not 963 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 5: quite ready yet, but definitely earned a spot on the 964 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 5: practice squad, developed him there more and I think he'll 965 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 5: make an impact at some point before this year is over. 966 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,239 Speaker 5: Kelvin Joseph, you can try to get him on the 967 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 5: practice squad as far as trying to save face on 968 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:55,320 Speaker 5: you know what point he was drafted in. 969 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 4: He's shown some signs in the. 970 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:59,879 Speaker 5: Past couple of games, so at worst, you know, sure 971 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 5: at the squad spot, because you're gonna need several cornerbacks 972 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 5: when you practic squad. 973 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 4: Anyway, And. 974 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:10,680 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm ready to dang it. I hate I'm sorry, 975 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:15,520 Speaker 8: it's hard sometimes to be professional and separate, you know, 976 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:21,840 Speaker 8: feelings from what you see. But I do think despite 977 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 8: some of the misses his hat, I do think that 978 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 8: he's made somewhat of a jump and I'm talking about 979 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 8: Kelvin Joseph here. I think he's grown and he is 980 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 8: a guy that can possibly stay on your practice squad 981 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 8: and not necessarily somebody's gonna come out. And the same 982 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 8: thing goes to a lot of these guys on the 983 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 8: back end that I think that they could be on 984 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 8: the pice practice squad and not risk some other team 985 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:50,040 Speaker 8: come and pick it up or sign them, and you 986 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 8: still have them at the tip of your hands whenever needed. 987 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:57,120 Speaker 8: But so how many guys was that total? 988 00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 6: I think we came up to five is what we're 989 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:01,840 Speaker 6: kind of Yeah, green is five is five is our 990 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:03,799 Speaker 6: number at cornerback. And then you got safety where you've 991 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 6: got Donovan Wilson, Jaron Curse, and Malie Hooker. You know 992 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 6: it will be here. You assume Marquise Bell will be 993 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 6: a part of that mix as well. So that's at four. 994 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 6: Then you would also assume Isral mcwamo's probably in that mix. 995 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 6: What happens to guys like juan Ye, Thomas or Tyler Coyle? 996 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 6: Uh So where do you go with the safety position? 997 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:32,360 Speaker 2: I went along there. I went My guys are Wilson, Yeah, Wilson, Curse, Hooker, Thomas, Bell, 998 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 2: is what I went there, and you let mcwamoe go mcwama. 999 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,479 Speaker 2: What I have is that corner safety. So he's gonna 1000 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:39,800 Speaker 2: be in the mix. He's gonna make the team, but 1001 00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 2: you're not putting in either position. Yes, exactly, same thing 1002 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 2: kind of how we look at Chauncey. Chauncey Golston absolutely 1003 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 2: got he knowed it. 1004 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 5: That's exactly where I am with it because the reason 1005 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 5: I only ran five at corner is because I know 1006 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 5: is he gives me flexibility between safety and cornerback. But 1007 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,720 Speaker 5: in doing so, I gotta run along in safety. 1008 00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 8: So you got the whole linebackers, right. 1009 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,400 Speaker 5: It's same with Marquise Bell. You know is he linebacker? 1010 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 5: Is he a safety? So that makes me run long 1011 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:08,280 Speaker 5: at safety? So you got the top three hooker, Dono 1012 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 5: and Curse, and then behind him, behind them you got 1013 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 5: Marquise Bell, Israel Mukuamu, Yes, yeah, you agree with that? 1014 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,320 Speaker 6: Ambery, Yes, all right? And I think for our specialist 1015 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:24,799 Speaker 6: see Godbrey Anger, we feel certain though made the team. Yeah, 1016 00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:26,759 Speaker 6: are you guys happy about that? That that field goal? 1017 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 6: I thought that made me just at least know he's 1018 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 6: got the power. Now you know, fifty nine yards is 1019 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 6: fifty nine yard. But he has the power if you 1020 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 6: get in one of those game situations where he has 1021 00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 6: the ability to do it, and that makes you, that 1022 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 6: makes you a little bit intrigued. 1023 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:41,879 Speaker 5: I say, I say he earned his spot, he made 1024 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 5: the team. Does that mean that I'm saying that his 1025 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 5: spot for the year is completely locked in? No, because 1026 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 5: I think Jerry Jones has a little bit of PTSD 1027 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 5: from the Brett Mayer situation. So if if bretton all 1028 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 5: be heaven forbid, goes out there and start missing starting, 1029 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 5: you know, the miss extra points at some point in 1030 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,839 Speaker 5: the season, then it's kind of iffy. But as we 1031 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 5: have these roster cuts, Yeah, the kid has absolutely earned 1032 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 5: his butt. 1033 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:02,919 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1034 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:07,680 Speaker 8: I think he closed the preseason very nicely, because going 1035 00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 8: into week two of the preseason I was still having 1036 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 8: doubts or as far as like I didn't get to 1037 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:17,320 Speaker 8: see enough of him, The Cowboys didn't give him enough opportunities, 1038 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:19,480 Speaker 8: and you know, it depends how the game is going 1039 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:22,000 Speaker 8: and all that. But I think that last game at 1040 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:24,440 Speaker 8: home against the Raiders kind of put a bow on 1041 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 8: that and made me feel a lot better for the 1042 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 8: start of the season. 1043 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 6: That is a rap and we wish the best of 1044 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 6: luck to all those folks out there today who will 1045 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 6: be losing their jobs. Let's also remember that, but goodluck 1046 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:38,279 Speaker 6: to them, and we'll be back on Thursday. We'll have 1047 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,799 Speaker 6: more talk, will kind of dissect what the Cowboys did 1048 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,839 Speaker 6: with their roster, maybe even the signings that they may make. 1049 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 6: We'll talk about all that on Thursday, and then next 1050 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 6: week we get you started. We were into the season 1051 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 6: until then. For Brian brought us Patrick Walker, Amber Garcia. 1052 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:52,840 Speaker 6: I'm Derek Eagleton.
