Welcome to Cowboys Storyline. It's been a little bit. 7 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: February the twelfth is the is the date right now, Wednesday, 8 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 1: February the twelfth. It's been a week. I know you 9 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: guys love that, you love going weekly here. But let's see. 10 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,239 Speaker 1: Let's see how quickly you can make these calls and 11 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:38,639 Speaker 1: get them in here and see how many we can 12 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:40,919 Speaker 1: get here in about an hour and forty five hour 13 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: and fifteen minutes or so until the Cowboys break comes 14 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 1: on at eleven a m. All right, we've to the 15 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: football season is completely over. No more football until training camp. 16 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: I know we got the draft, free agency, all that stuff, 17 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: but the Super Bowl kind of capped that. You know, 18 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: if you're listening to this show and you listen all 19 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,559 Speaker 1: the time, that means you're a die hard Cowboy fans, 20 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: and that means you hated the Super Bowl, or I 21 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: would think unless you're one of those that didn't want 22 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: Kansas City to get the fifth win, and I don't know, 23 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: I think Philadelphia holding the trophy in the airs. It's 24 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: pretty gross, so I would imagine you didn't love it. 25 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: We can talk about it and talk about what it 26 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: means for the cowboys and the cowboys moving forward, how 27 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: they can get back to that level or anywhere close 28 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: to it. That's what we can talk about it, all right. 29 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 1: Eight A, A, eight, five, five, two two ninety seven 30 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: is the numbers to call.

And I know 54 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 4: we have a lot of needs on the team, but 55 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 4: what position would you like to see? 56 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 6: I guess I'd like. 57 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 4: To see the Cowboys draft. And then actually have one 58 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 4: more question. 59 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 7: How do I get your book? 60 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 4: Don't get your book. I want to get a copy 61 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,679 Speaker 4: of your book because I want to bring Benji the 62 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 4: training camp this this upcoming, uh you know, this next year, 63 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:57,919 Speaker 4: and I want to try to get your book signed 64 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 4: and have him be able to meet you. 65 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: All right, Well, I'm gonna bring some books to training 66 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: camp this year so I'll be able to have some 67 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: So that's probably one of the easiest things to do. 68 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: So I'll have some there, and you know that won't 69 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: look self serving at all, but I'll still I'll bring 70 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: some habit and then if I see somebody like I 71 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: saw you last year on the fence and all that 72 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: and say like hey, I need a book, I can 73 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: go get one and I can do that. So all right, thanks, 74 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: Greg take Benja see you later. First question from Benji, 75 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: what do I think of the new coach? He's undefeated, 76 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: and I and I say that, I'm not really joking 77 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: when I say that, like, like, so we're not judging 78 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: off anything other than what we hear and what we 79 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: see and and and the stuff that he says. So far, 80 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: so good. I like the staff that that he's putting together, 81 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: or he's pretty much put together. Seems pretty personable, down 82 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: to earth, but also you know, he's motivated and all that. 83 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: It all sounds good right now, and I and I 84 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: get it. He's going to continue to impress people along 85 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: the way until the season starts, and then then from there, 86 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: you know, all bets are off and that's just the 87 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: way it goes. Everybody loved Jason Garrett. Everyone loved Jason 88 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: Garrett as a player, for that awesome game when he 89 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: when he was a player, just the stuff that he 90 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: said the offensive coordinator when he was an offensive coordinator, 91 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: he takes over as an interim, Everything was good. And 92 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: then you go eight and eight three years in a row, 93 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: and everybody changes their opinion. So my point is is, 94 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: right now, I like what I'm what I'm hearing and seeing, 95 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: but I know it's early, and no one gets judged 96 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: on what they do in February and March and April 97 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: and all that. Boy position what I draft. You know, 98 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: I don't think they can cover all of their needs 99 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: and free agency. They just they're not built that way, 100 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 1: and so unfortunately that they're going to go into the 101 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: draft with some pretty big needs. Fortunately, you do have 102 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: the twelfth pick and then you get the forty fourth 103 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: pick in the second round, so you got you got 104 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: some spots where you can, you can you should get 105 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: some players early. 106 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 8: You know. 107 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: I'm I think your offensive line is going to be 108 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: needed at twelve. So I'm fine with with one of 109 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: those guard tackles there. And I'm fine drafting a tackle 110 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: and saying, all right, well so far so it's not 111 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: working out with Tyler Geyton. If he changes, you know, 112 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: and he gets better, great, but if you can't count 113 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: on that at this moment, so I would I would 114 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,919 Speaker 1: draft an offensive lineman. I'd be fine with that. I'd 115 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: be fine if an edge rusher was the spot there, 116 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: because what I saw from Philadelphia the other night, just 117 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: just keep don't trade Micah, give him another, give me 118 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: another Micah, and I don't know if that's possible, but 119 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 1: I'm not about trading Micah. I'm about getting more pass rush, 120 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: more game wreckers, because that's exactly what happened there. So 121 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: that's all right. Those are those are my three questions there. 122 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: Good job, Greg and Benji and the kids are out 123 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: in Sacermento. Let's go to Gary and in Mexico. 124 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 9: I think, Nick, how's it going good? 125 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: How are you doing? Good morning? 126 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 9: I'm good man. This is the best time of the 127 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 9: year to be a Cowboys fan because we still have hope. 128 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: That's right, that's right. 129 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 9: Yeah, let me let me start. Let me ask you 130 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 9: my trivia question for the week, if that's okay, and 131 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 9: then I'll get to this year's team. 132 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 5: All right, Okay. 133 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 6: Defense. 134 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 9: Philadelphia's defense dominated that game on Sunday. They did so 135 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 9: in light of that, can you name for me the 136 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 9: four Dallas Cowboy defenders to score touchdowns in the Super Bowl? 137 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: Four that has scored a touchdown in the Super Bowl? Yes? Yeah, 138 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 1: all right, So let's go backwards here, or at least 139 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: I think I'm going backwards. James Washington, he scored to 140 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: Bowl twenty eight, should have an MVP. I agree with that. 141 00:06:52,520 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: James Washington. Let's see Ken Norton Junior, Jimmy Jones, Yes, 142 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: Jimmy Jones, and then Mike Hagman, Mike super Bowl thirteen, 143 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: that's right. 144 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 9: That's right man. Holly Wood hinders some hell, Terry Bradshaw 145 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 9: and Mike Kegman stripped the ball six. Yeah, And I 146 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 9: think I don't know this for sure, man. I think 147 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 9: Dallas holds the record for most defensive touchdowns in the 148 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 9: Super Bowl, but I don't know that for sure. 149 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 10: And I will tell you that. 150 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: And who should have been the fifth one? 151 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 9: Who should have been the fifth one? Well, you're talking 152 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 9: about Dallas player to score a touchdown in the Super Bowl. 153 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: I'm talking about a defensive player that that got really, 154 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: really really close the score to the touchdown and didn't. 155 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 9: Is it Larry Brown? 156 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: It's Leon Less is who I'm talking about. 157 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 9: Oh yeah, Oh that's embarrassing. 158 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 6: Should you should ban. 159 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 7: Me from your show? 160 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: Because that's what happens when you're like next level, you're 161 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: thinking of all the little other ones. You kind of 162 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: forget that one or most people have blocked that one out. 163 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 9: But yeah, that one still hurts me. I really wanted 164 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 9: them to get fifty nine points in that game. I 165 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 9: was mad when that happened, But yeah, you're right, man, 166 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 9: Leon Led How do we forget that? Okay, well, let's 167 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 9: talk about this year's team. You're talking about the draft, man, 168 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 9: for Dallas, just get the best player available. They don't 169 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 9: need the cherry pick stuff. Whoever is the best player 170 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 9: on your board. Just drafting, yeah, and go from there. 171 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 9: But you saw that with Philadelphia on Sunday. Their defensive 172 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 9: line dominated that football game. And if you go back 173 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 9: and look at Cowboys super Bowl champions, they when they're 174 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 9: winning super Bowls, they have dominant defensive lines. They have 175 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 9: number one picks across the board. That was true with Landry, 176 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 9: that was true with Jimmy Johnson. You got to get 177 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 9: strong in the trenches, man. That the superstars on the 178 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 9: outside are fun, but if you're not solid up front, 179 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 9: it ain't gonna matter. And what Philadelphia did on Sunday 180 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 9: was just awesome the way they and more power to them, man. 181 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 9: And I'm not mad or upset because the Eagles won 182 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 9: the Super Bowl. My model, the Cowboy fans and the 183 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 9: Jerry and Stevens just go out and do a better job. 184 00:08:58,640 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 6: Go do a better job. 185 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 9: Of building team, but you gotta get strong upfront. So 186 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 9: with that amount, what are your thoughts on the defensive 187 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 9: line and how we might be able to get better 188 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 9: in that area moving forward? 189 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: You know, I think I think to me, it starts 190 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: with Micah and I'm I'm not about trading him, I'm 191 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 1: about adding more pieces there. And I think, like they 192 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: did two years ago, when it was just how are 193 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: these guys gonna all play? You know, Sam Williams and 194 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: and Dante Fowler and Doran's armstrong and tank and and 195 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: and of course Micah and you just kind of figure 196 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: it out and and and they just stay stay ready, 197 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: stay hungry, all that. And then when when that doesn't 198 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 1: happen like this year, and then you're like, all right, 199 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: well we're a little bit depleted. And then you keep 200 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: getting injuries. Now now you've got a huge problem. So 201 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: my point is I'm overloading there. I'm overloading that that 202 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: position with with pass rushers, and you can't have enough. 203 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: You just can't have enough. And then and if the 204 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: worst problem is is that Sam Williams or Micah tweets 205 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: out something like you know, they don't plaint me enough 206 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,439 Speaker 1: or I need to play more that's the worst thing. 207 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: Then that's fine because then they're pissed off and then 208 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: and then they rush the passer even better. So I 209 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: just don't think you can have too many at that position. 210 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: And I'm overloading there because that's what Rex games to me. 211 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 9: Hey, can I can I make one more comment on 212 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 9: that real quick? Of course, on that, A lot of 213 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 9: people complain about Micah and he talks a lot and 214 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 9: makes a lot of noise. Yeah, if you go back 215 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 9: and just look at Cowboys, sister, and this goes all 216 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 9: the way back to the seventies. Man, when they're winning championships, 217 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 9: they have a little bit of crazy on defense. Yeah, 218 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 9: I mean, Hollywood Henderson was a loud mouth show off, 219 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 9: but he backed it up on the field. Charles Haley, 220 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 9: you know, he was out there a little bit. You 221 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 9: need a little bit of that on defense. You need 222 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 9: a little bit of an edge, And I'm okay with that. 223 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 9: I'm okay with having a little bit of an edge 224 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 9: on that side of the ball. But just go out 225 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 9: and produce. 226 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 6: So all right, thank you, Nick. 227 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 1: I apprecure it. Yeah, you're right. I mean you can 228 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: go to Dion Sanders and you know, I mean Ray 229 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: Lewis on with other teams and straight handed, and I 230 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: know that everybody's different in their own way. But being vocal, 231 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: being loud, being confident, cocky, whatever you want to say, 232 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 1: it swag is. You know that that's part of it too. 233 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: And you know the the the Cowboys need a little 234 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: bit they need more of that for sure. So anyways, 235 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: good call, thanks for the trivia question, and let's go 236 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 1: to Brian in Kansas City. Brian, what's up? 237 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 11: Good morning, mister Eatman. How are you, sir? 238 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: How are you doing? 239 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 11: I'm doing all right. 240 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 12: I'm doing all right. 241 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 11: Glad to be off for the day and get a 242 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,559 Speaker 11: chance to talk to Chris and you. And here here 243 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 11: what Cowboys Nation has to say about the Eagles? What 244 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 11: is that there? 245 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 1: How's it going? How's it going in Kansas City? 246 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 11: I think you know the answer to that, sir. 247 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: I mean seriously, though, is it like, oh my god, 248 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: I can't believe this happened? Or is it still? I mean, 249 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: is like when you don't win a third straight? I 250 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: mean you still you still have enough to hang your 251 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: hat on a little bit. 252 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 11: Well, so you know, the culture here is Kansas City 253 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 11: is kind of a smaller city. You know, it's it's 254 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 11: not New York, it's not La it's not Chicago, so. 255 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 12: It's a little bit more of a smaller city feel. 256 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 11: So when something like that happens, it's just crushing, you know, 257 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 11: it's just just soul crushing. Like really, we got like 258 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 11: we didn't even play competitively, you know, you know, as 259 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 11: a Cowboys fan, I'm like, yeah, I feel your pain. 260 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: Yeah it happens, yeah. 261 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 11: Yeah, so but yeah it it was nobody and I 262 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 11: don't think anybody in the sporting world. I knew that 263 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 11: the Eagles were really, really, really good in the trenches. 264 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 11: Maybe they have the best offensive and defensive lines right now. 265 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 11: And I didn't see it coming. And I you know, 266 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 11: I've been watching football for decades and decades, and I 267 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 11: just thought, Mahomes is Mahomes and somehow he's gonna pull 268 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 11: a rabbit out of his hat. 269 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, I thought so. 270 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 12: So all right, what do you got, Bran, Well, so 271 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 12: think thinking that through. What I was wondering is, you know, 272 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 12: listening to all the draft shows and all the people 273 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 12: that do that for a living and analyze people. Well, 274 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 12: I think, well, this is kind of what I'm looking for. 275 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 12: But it comes with a question. So I think, you know, getting. 276 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 11: Better in the trenches absolutely their way to go. In 277 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 11: listening to all those experts, what I've heard is defensive 278 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 11: line is a little on the deeper side. Offensive line 279 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 11: not so much this draft. So I'm kind of guessing that, 280 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 11: you know, outside of you know, maybe Genti falls to us, 281 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 11: I don't really think he's gonna fall that part. To 282 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,439 Speaker 11: be honest with you, I know running backs don't traditionally 283 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 11: go real high, but I don't think he's gonna make that. 284 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,479 Speaker 11: I don't think he'll be there at twelve. 285 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 8: But. 286 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 11: I'm kind of hoping for defensive line. My question for 287 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 11: you is and and unfortunately two of the guys I 288 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 11: would like are both Michigan defensive linemen, which would probably 289 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 11: give Cowboys their aneurism. But my question to you is 290 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 11: you've been in that organization a long time, and it's 291 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 11: true across all pro professional sports football. When when they 292 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 11: make a mistake, when there's a you know, uh, you know, 293 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 11: they we made a mistake, how hard is it for 294 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 11: an organization to refocus and say we're going to draft 295 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 11: that same position again. 296 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 13: Yeah? 297 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 6: No, No. 298 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 11: In this case, the defensive line is the ones that 299 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 11: that's deeper. I think we have a better chance at 300 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 11: replacing Mazi Smith and you know, just how hard would 301 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 11: it be in the year. But he's he only played 302 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 11: two years, but not well you know, And I'm not 303 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 11: saying he can't be a professional, but I think he's 304 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 11: probably are just a rotational guy. Yeah, what are they 305 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 11: are they ready to make? You know, just how hard 306 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 11: is it your opinion in that organization to say we 307 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 11: made a mistake. We're going to move on, all right. 308 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 12: And I love you brothers. 309 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 11: Enjoy the day, sir, I have a good day. 310 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: Appreciate that. 311 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 8: You know. 312 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: The thing about those type of questions about saying admitting 313 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: that we've you know, made mistakes and moving on and 314 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: all that. I think that that when you have in 315 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: this case, when you have different coaching staff and I 316 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: and I get that Jerry Steven and Will McLay, you 317 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: know that they're the holdovers. They're still here, They're still 318 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: making the decision. But I think, you know, you do 319 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: get a lot of input from the coaches, Shottenheimer defensive coaches. 320 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: I don't think Schottenheimer and Matt Eberfluss are going to 321 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: worry about picks that were made before them and all 322 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: that defensive you know, coaches or offensive coach in this case, 323 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: would be like, let me have this guy, if it's 324 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: a Michigan lineman, a guy named Graham or whatever. First 325 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 1: of all, they're in different systems than they were when 326 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: they were drafted by the Cowboys. The Cowboys have a 327 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: different system, so coaches have the biggest egos. They they're like, 328 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: let me put my hands around that guy. I got him. 329 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: He'll be fine. Don't worry about all that. So I 330 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: think from that standpoint, and then that's all that that 331 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: the Jerry Steven will kind of need to hear about, 332 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, oh, draft another Michigan guy or something like 333 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: that like that, you know, not worried about it. This 334 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: guy's different, he's special, we'll coach him differently. Blah blah blah, 335 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: all that coach speaks. So I don't think that's the issue. 336 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: What you're asking also is when do you kind of 337 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: cut the cord and say, you know, let's go back 338 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: to the well and a defensive tackle specifically. That'll come 339 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: down to what are they doing in free agency? Do 340 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: they re sign OSU? I mean, they have needs there, 341 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: so you know, if you drafted one I mean, just 342 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: just think about your O line. Back In twenty eleven, 343 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: they finally drafted Tyl Tyron Smith, first time they drafted 344 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: a lineman first round thirty years and then two years 345 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: later they draft Travis Frederick. The next year they draft 346 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: Zach Martin. So you're trying to build something, sometimes it 347 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: takes more than one. So now I think that that's 348 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 1: that's a good question, But it's one that I think 349 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,479 Speaker 1: that you know, you just have to look at your 350 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: team right now and say what does his team need. 351 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what we've done before, doesn't matter about 352 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: hoping this guy turns the corner is you're drafting this 353 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:44,719 Speaker 1: guy to think does he make us better? And if 354 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: it's the same position that it was, so be it. 355 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Carolina. He's driving in Texas, 356 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: East Texas, Long View, Texas, Carolina. What's up? 357 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 5: What's going on? 358 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 8: Both, ma'am? 359 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: How are you doing? 360 00:17:59,280 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 11: Ma'am? 361 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:00,239 Speaker 9: All right? 362 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 8: One hundred and twenty five calls just to get in. 363 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,439 Speaker 8: It's crazy. You're line is going, man, it is going. 364 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: Well, that's a good thing. That's a good thing. I 365 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: thought you were going to say, one hundred and twenty 366 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: five miles an hour that when you said one twenty five, 367 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: I was like, oh my. 368 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 8: Godness, no, that's rating real bad. That'd be very bad. 369 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 10: I don't go that fast. 370 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: Here, what's you got for me? 371 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 8: I got? I got got like three different points I 372 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 8: want to hit on. First one to ask you how 373 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 8: long do you think they're gonna wait to get this 374 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 8: parts bill done? Because I think that's going to be 375 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 8: evident to how they spend this money going forward to 376 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 8: free agency, not just our own, but you know, going 377 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 8: out time. That's my first question. My second question is 378 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 8: if they do go ahead and get this done and 379 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,719 Speaker 8: open up the cap. In your eyes, where would you go? 380 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 8: I mean outside of the web position group would you go? 381 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 8: Because of course created before the draft? What need would 382 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 8: you feel if you have like a thought of who's 383 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 8: going to be available laying just a position? 384 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:10,199 Speaker 12: What would you go for? 385 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 8: A first and lastly, I s listening to the Talking Cowboys, right, 386 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 8: not Talking Cowboys, this thing. It was the Draft show 387 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 8: and they made a comment that I think they said 388 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 8: Barry Standards if I'm not mistaken, said that the Cowboys 389 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 8: shouldn't draft Campy because they don't know what to do 390 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 8: with this, Like What does that really mean? Right in 391 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 8: your eyes? 392 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 13: What does that? 393 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 8: What does that mean? They don't know to do it 394 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 8: though I know there's a new coach to shake up, 395 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 8: So why would why would that be an issue? I 396 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 8: mean coaches coach Saners, I think I think not he 397 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 8: said somebody, Emmy Smith, that's it was. I'm sorry, Emmitt Smith. 398 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 8: They said they had a backroom conversation with him at 399 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 8: I think one of the bulls trying bows or something 400 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 8: like that out there alab and they said he said 401 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 8: that they shouldn't draft me. He's so strongly about it 402 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 8: because they wouldn't know how to use some babic All right, 403 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 8: why would you think that's what would that be? A team? 404 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: It's not a thing. That's not a thing. And again 405 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: I don't know who said that, and I don't I 406 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: don't know if you're one hundred percent sure on who's saying. 407 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: So let's not let's not go in there put anyone's okay, 408 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: all right, all right, well all right, Carolina, thank you 409 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:30,640 Speaker 1: for the call. I got your point in here. Let's 410 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: let's touch on that that. I didn't hear that comment. 411 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,400 Speaker 1: And but that makes no sense to me at all, 412 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: especially if it was it because Ashton genty looks like 413 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: a faster version of Immit but but similar in the 414 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: way that they run. They these guys know what to 415 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: do with with I mean with a running back that 416 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 1: you drafted twelfth over If you drafted a running back 417 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: twelfth overall, that's the reason why he's worthy of drafting 418 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,959 Speaker 1: is because you don't have to make that decision of 419 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: what do you do with them? This is not Deuce Vaughan. 420 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 1: This is not some power back that's two hundred and 421 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 1: sixty pounds. This is a three down back that that 422 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: is why you take them in the first round because 423 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: you don't have to be a genius to figure it out. 424 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: You run him here, you run him there, you let 425 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: him block, you throw a screen to him. He can 426 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 1: do it all. And if he can't do it all, 427 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 1: then you don't draft him twelfth overall. So I don't 428 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 1: think he's even going to be available. Like Brian in 429 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: Kansas City said, I don't agree that he's I don't 430 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: think he's going to be there for you. So I 431 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:45,360 Speaker 1: don't agree with anybody's point, whoever's point that was. As 432 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 1: I'm watching the mock drafts go here on NFL Network, 433 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: And since last week, I haven't seen Ashton Genty get 434 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: to the Cowboys at twelve. And there's the cow there's 435 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 1: Walter Nolan. Ole Miss is the pick for the Cowboys 436 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: in this particular mock draft. I think Genti went seventh. 437 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 1: You don't have to worry about what to do with 438 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: a guy like that. He's special and and I just 439 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: think that's that's being ridiculous to think that these NFL 440 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: teams coaches don't know what to do. 441 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 11: I don't. 442 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: I didn't hear all that quote. There's got to be 443 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: more to it. No disrespect to any Hall of Fame 444 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: running back, but but I think the Cowboys, in any 445 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: team can figure out what to do with a special 446 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: running back like that. The question was, well they how 447 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 1: long will they wait? I don't think the Cowboys are 448 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: going to be They're not backed into the corner here 449 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: and there, and they're certainly not going to be if 450 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: there's if there's a narrative that Micah Parsons has got 451 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: to get done so the Cowboys can do stuff in 452 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: free agency that only plays into Micah and his agent 453 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:53,479 Speaker 1: and all of that, and the Cowboys are not going 454 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: to be a part of that, we know that, we 455 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,479 Speaker 1: know that they are not going to be, you know, 456 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: forced into making a deal that doesn't make sense. Now, 457 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: if the deal makes sense today, you make it. If 458 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 1: it makes sense before the draft, then you make it. 459 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: But you know it's got to be it's got to 460 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 1: work for both and this situation is going to have 461 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: to work for for both sides. And then to answer 462 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: the question of if they had some money available, what 463 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: position in the salary cap I mean what I mean, 464 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: what position on the in free agency would I think 465 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 1: the Cowboys address or should address. I would go with 466 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 1: I would probably go with some veterans on the defensive line. Maybe, 467 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 1: you know, try to get another Dante Fowler Carl Lawson 468 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: type pass rushroom, so you have some veteran there. I'm 469 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: looking at a corner too. I would think cornerback, and 470 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: you know those could get pricy in free agency. But uh, 471 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: there's a couple, there's a couple of guys I think 472 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 1: the Cowboys could target there. So defense for sure, but 473 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: you know, we'll see, we'll see what happened to me. 474 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind them resigning their own guy in Jordan Lewis. 475 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Robbie and Koco Beach, Florida. Robbie, 476 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: what's up, Hey, Nick? 477 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 6: How are you Dad? 478 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 10: I'm good. You kind of threw me off with your 479 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 10: last answer to your question. Uh one, if that was 480 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 10: kind of what I was going to ask about free agency? 481 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 10: But can I ask it a different way? 482 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 13: Sure? 483 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,400 Speaker 10: One of the earlier callers, Gary Maybe from New Xico 484 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 10: Maybe said it this, This defensive line class is supposed 485 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 10: to be pretty solid. Do we go after an offensive 486 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 10: lineman and free agency if we can? And second question 487 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 10: or statement question that you can expound on, maybe, is 488 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 10: I like that I heard Michael Parson say, Hey, I'd 489 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 10: like to take a team friendly deal. I'd like to 490 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 10: make a lot of money and get my bag, but 491 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 10: still take a team friendly deal that would help us 492 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 10: get more players. 493 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 9: I just I like to hear that. 494 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 10: I don't know if there's truth behind it. 495 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would like to see it. I mean, it 496 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: sounds beautiful, but let's what happens. We'll see if that 497 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: that really is the case, because a team friendly deal 498 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: isn't just about less money, but it's about the timing 499 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: of it. Like we've talked about before, that would be 500 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 1: team friendly. You know you want to get some help 501 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: in here. You want to get some some defensive players. 502 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: You want to get have a better offense, so you can, 503 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: you know, build a lead so he can rush the 504 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: passer more than do a deal. Now that that that 505 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: makes sense. 506 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 10: And get that guy that you can't name because he's 507 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 10: still on another team. Maybe whoever, I've just thrown that 508 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:32,199 Speaker 10: out there, you can. 509 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: I mean, if you did that, I mean, that's just 510 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 1: the party at the quarterback and then two guys meeting. 511 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 1: You know what I mean that? Oh yeah, I mean 512 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: fans might might really you know, might be back on board, 513 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: and they might love Jerry and Steven, you know, like 514 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: more than we've ever seen if they did a move 515 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: like that. But you know, I wouldn't. I wouldn't. Those 516 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,919 Speaker 1: pass rushers like that. I mean, they're tough to to. 517 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: Let's see what what Cleveland's asking for because we were 518 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 1: talking about Miles, right, Let's see what they're asking for it. 519 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: Because I say that because not for the Cowboys to 520 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: make a trade. But my point is if they're asking for. 521 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 10: The moon, then then it's not gonna happen. 522 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 1: Then Micah Parson's trading for Mike, you better get you 523 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: better get twice as much for. 524 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 2: That the moon and a half the moon, the moon. 525 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: And like Jupiter. If that's I don't I don't know 526 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: if it's I don't know if it would be worth anything. 527 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 10: But anyway, but I'm with you, man, then I have 528 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 10: been since the get go. Yeah, you don't trade Micah, 529 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 10: because even if you get three first round draft picks, 530 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 10: do you get one more generational talent that Mike is? 531 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 1: Yeah? 532 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 10: Who knows. I mean the success rate on first round 533 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 10: picks is fifty percent. 534 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean three first round picks is a lot. 535 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 1: And this was discussed at lunch yesterday. We were kind 536 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: of talking about it, and two first round picks doesn't 537 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: seem to be worth it to me enough because you're 538 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: getting you're getting one more pick because you have a 539 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: first round pick, you have a you have a parson, 540 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 1: you have you have that, so you've got to get 541 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: another one and you got a draft to to make 542 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: it work. Now three three, there's a lot. I just 543 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: don't see that happening. But either way, I'm not. I 544 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 1: just I wouldn't trade it. I wouldn't trade him. I 545 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't They got a luck. 546 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 10: Go ahead, back to the first question and I'll let 547 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 10: you off there is I want to talk to lots 548 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 10: of people. Are there a veteran linemen out there that 549 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 10: you'd like to see brought in as a free agent 550 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 10: for a two year deal something like that? Offense, and 551 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 10: I'll listen to offense because the defense draft is supposed 552 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 10: to be so so deep. 553 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, well all right, all right, sounds good. I mean 554 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: you can take that in different ways. If if the 555 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: defensive line is so deep, then then maybe you draft 556 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: offense in the first round, you know, and you if 557 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: you have this deep, you know, class of defensive lineman, 558 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: you can get something in the later rounds and they 559 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: can still help you out. So there's different ways of 560 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: thinking there. Another part too, is and again I don't 561 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,719 Speaker 1: know this, I haven't looked this far on free agency 562 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: and good players and from like let's say Arizona, because 563 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: you are taking their offensive line coach and and Clayton 564 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: Adams and how he's your offensive coordinator. Won't call the plays, 565 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: but he's your offensive coordinator, and so he'll be working 566 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: closely with sounds like Ken Dorsey is going to be 567 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 1: a part of it as well. So look, you're you're 568 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: bringing in player you know, coaches from other teams. That's 569 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: that's a different dynamic too, that that you know, like 570 00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: maybe this guy who's played with him, you know, knows 571 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: how to coach him, knows what he can do best. 572 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 1: So I haven't even connected those dots yet, but that's 573 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: something to do. You know, you can you can do 574 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: it for you know, the defensive side of the ball 575 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: as well. You know, if the Bears have a free agent, 576 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: that's worth looking at. And you know you had Eberflus 577 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: or maybe the Colts from a few years ago. So 578 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: so the ties of the new coaches that that you know, 579 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: that might work. Now, that's not always the case. I mean, 580 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,239 Speaker 1: you know, I know Zimmerhead a couple of guys in 581 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: here that he has coached before, and he was like, no, 582 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: we're good. So just because you have history doesn't mean 583 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: it's a good history. So anyways, that's something to look 584 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: at when you look at free agency as some of 585 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: the ties there between coaches and players.

You have to 650 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 16: spend some money in free agency this year. You got 651 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 16: no choice because of the twenty something players should have 652 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 16: gone out. But the way that I look at this 653 00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 16: draft and look at the free agency is like that one. 654 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 16: We need jayaln Tober to either take that next leap 655 00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 16: or you're gonna have to move on from him to 656 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 16: find somebody better. And then, in my opinion, yes, Micah 657 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 16: does need help. But I would prefer going free agency 658 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 16: for a known commodity at alignment at d Lions, whether 659 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 16: it be defensive tackle or a defensive end, and I 660 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 16: would draft Ashton Gentz. And then in that case, if 661 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,479 Speaker 16: I'm going for Ashton Genty and I'm doing that, I 662 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 16: wouldn't be able to hold on to Rico Dono. And 663 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 16: I look at it like this. I take him Ashton 664 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 16: Puncher lib Key, and I take dusonto the season and 665 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 16: you are already letting a hunter handle all of the 666 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 16: short downyardage. Anyway, I think that would be more than 667 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 16: enough to get you over the hump at the running 668 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 16: back part, as well as giving you a receiving option 669 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 16: out of the backfield between Dukes and gent But I 670 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 16: want to see and we also need a linebacker for sure, 671 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 16: so we need some known commodities. We're gonna have to 672 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 16: spend a little bit more than a couple million dollars 673 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 16: that we normally go through, you know, shopping out the bargain. Ben, 674 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 16: we are a draft and developed team, but you have 675 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 16: to look at teams like Philly Billy's like, listen, don't 676 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 16: care we're paying a fifty five million dollars quarterback. We're 677 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 16: paying one of the top wide receivers in the league, 678 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 16: two of them. As a matter of fact, we went 679 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 16: to the Super Bowl three times in ten years. At 680 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 16: least all One is supposed to be a top five 681 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 16: team in our conference. That way, we're competing for it 682 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,320 Speaker 16: every single year, not going to the playoffs and getting 683 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 16: knocked out in the first round. But you guys have 684 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 16: a great day, and. 685 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: So all right, I think I think you said draft 686 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 1: Ashton gent and then Hunter lifty would be your short 687 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: yardage back. I thought I heard that. But if you're 688 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 1: drafting a running back in the first round, especially in 689 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 1: the top half of the first round, he's got to 690 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: be able to do everything. That's why you're drafting him. 691 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: If he's not, then then you get a guy in 692 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: the second round or the third round. You know, if 693 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: you're gonna if you're gonna mix things up like that, 694 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: but you know the reason why you draft the guy 695 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 1: that you know, like that is because he's special. And 696 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: you drafted Zeke and he was. He was special. He 697 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 1: was a short yardage back, he was your first and 698 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 1: ten back, he was your third down back. He was everything. 699 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 1: And I think that's that's what would happen if you 700 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,879 Speaker 1: drafted a guy in the first round. Again, I don't 701 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: know if he's gonna if he's gonna make it that far, 702 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: but if he does, I mean, you know, he would 703 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 1: handle that and then that's why that's why you draft him. 704 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,399 Speaker 1: But you know, I'm nothing against Hunter Lipke or Douce 705 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 1: Vaughan or whatever. I think those are good. You know, 706 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: they're they're good, solid players. Rico Daddle had had a 707 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: good season. But I think if you want to upgrade, 708 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that you're gonna have to do 709 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 1: that through the draft. So as I see it, a 710 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,720 Speaker 1: mock draft just went through with Astra genty at twelve. 711 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: Just like I just said, I haven't seen him go 712 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 1: that far again. Mock drafts, you know, do somebody's five 713 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: point zero mock draft, you know, I mean, which basically 714 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: just says I'm just gonna keep doing I'm just gonna 715 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 1: keep throwing stuff at the wall. See what sticks. I 716 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 1: mean it's before the Combine, it's before the Pro Day's 717 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: a lot of things change, but we get it. I mean, 718 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: the draft is here, people are talking. I mean the 719 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: draft talk is here. That's what people want to talk about. 720 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: I don't like to put a ton of stock and 721 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 1: all that because things change. Somebody's gonna go to the 722 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: Combine to run a four to two three. I don't 723 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,280 Speaker 1: know what position or what, but all of a sudden 724 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: he becomes a first rounder. I don't think Xavier Worthy 725 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 1: was a first round pick going into the Combine, and 726 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: then he ran the fastest time ever. And guess what. 727 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: There he is Chris Johnson from East Carolina. I remember 728 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: did the same thing, and you know you run like that. 729 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: Matt Jones, former Arkansas quarterback, went to Receivern like a 730 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: four three to one at six foot six. All of 731 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: a sudden, he's a first round pick for Jacksonville. So 732 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,280 Speaker 1: my point is is, you know, we're going to see 733 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:48,280 Speaker 1: five to ten guys that we haven't even really heard 734 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 1: about that are going to jump into the mix here, 735 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: and maybe guys in the late teens are late. You know, 736 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 1: first round is going to move up higher, and vice versa. 737 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 1: And all that. So the point is still early in 738 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: the game. It hasn't been you know, this story of 739 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: the drafts hasn't even begun to be told yet. So 740 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: let's see what happens there. But I agree with Sebastian 741 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 1: with the bigger name free agent, even if that means 742 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: you're not signing as many guys as you because you 743 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 1: have to sign some guys. There's no doubt whether it 744 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 1: be your own or not. But I'm making I'm gonna 745 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 1: at least attempt to make a few more splashes this 746 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: time around. Then I just think it's it's it's it's 747 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: got to happen this year for this team, this fan base, 748 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 1: in the locker room, I think I think they need 749 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: to make some splashes here. All right. Rick Webstern, Massachusetts, 750 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: what's up? 751 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 2: How are you doing good? 752 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 1: How are you? 753 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 2: I'm all right? How was your week? 754 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,240 Speaker 1: Good? Good? 755 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 2: I just had a couple of comments and one that 756 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 2: was in Carolina. Emmett did say that, but he's spanned 757 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 2: a little bit, but he said he enjoys enjoys. Uh, 758 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 2: you know, there's a great running back, be a great choice, 759 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 2: but I don't know if that based on what they've 760 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 2: done last year, maybe the befool How would they use 761 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,799 Speaker 2: them if they don't know really how to use them 762 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 2: and they haven't used them, why would you draft them? 763 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,360 Speaker 1: I just don't know. How how would you what? 764 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 13: That was on? 765 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,240 Speaker 2: It was one the fan. 766 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 1: Okay, I don't agree with that. I don't agree with 767 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: the greatest running back in the history of the Cowboys 768 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: who said that. I just don't. I don't agree with that. 769 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: What what what does he having to go off of? Of? 770 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 1: How the Cowboys aren't going to use them because they 771 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: didn't use Rico Dawdle the same way. That's not the 772 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 1: same player. They haven't had this guy. They haven't had 773 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,160 Speaker 1: a first round type running back sitting here like that 774 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 1: for them for them to use. So how would you 775 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: say based off of what I mean? And I'm not 776 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 1: one that says that they waited too long to get 777 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: the ball to Rico Daddle, I don't. I don't agree 778 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: with that. Rico Daddles started like fourteen games, he got 779 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: chances in the first half of the season. He didn't. 780 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:03,279 Speaker 1: Is Rick still there? 781 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:04,839 Speaker 11: Yeah? 782 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,799 Speaker 2: The other A couple other coms was, well, you were 783 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 2: talking about the genty maybe a little faster than well, 784 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 2: That's what Genty said when they asked him, So what 785 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:17,800 Speaker 2: do you think, Well, I think I'm a little faster 786 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 2: Danama And that just went off. But the other thing 787 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 2: to talk about free agents that could come in Clayton 788 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 2: Adam's offensive line from Carolina from Arizona. Yeah, Will hern 789 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 2: Andz is I think a free agent, so they could 790 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 2: bring him over. 791 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,799 Speaker 1: Yep. And and that was a player and that it 792 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: might have been what ten years. I don't know how 793 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: long he's been in the league, maybe not that long, 794 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 1: but I know the Cowboys loved him coming out of 795 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 1: the draft. And I haven't really followed his career that much, 796 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,839 Speaker 1: but he was a guy that they were very high 797 00:39:54,880 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: on if I remember correctly. So, yeah, that would be good. 798 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that was good. 799 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 2: Uh. I think it's just with to everybody dunk and everything. Still, 800 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 2: I still believe that we should draft one of the 801 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 2: first three rounds. Should be drafting a defensive tackle, a 802 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 2: running back, and a wide receiver and go from there. 803 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: Okay, again that depends on what they do in free agency. 804 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: I mean, those are good three positions I can get. 805 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 1: I can name three more that I It's like, how 806 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: do you not draft an offensive lineman, a cornerback, or 807 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: a linebacker. So that's the point, is that there's about 808 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: six to seven positions that make sense to address as 809 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 1: high as the first round. That means that you're not 810 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 1: going to address those positions. You know, some of them 811 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 1: aren't going to get touched at all because they don't 812 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: they don't have a fourth round pick, so you know 813 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 1: you may not you may not get some of those 814 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,839 Speaker 1: positions till the fifth round the way it goes. So 815 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:58,399 Speaker 1: all right, thank you, thank you, appreciate the call. All right, 816 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 1: let's move on to my man, Randy, that's or Canna Randy. 817 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 1: What's up man? 818 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,359 Speaker 7: Well, I'm baking my truck trying to draw off I mean, 819 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 7: good gravy is bringing like a cow fishing on a 820 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 7: flat rocks right now. Holy moly. All right, so what's 821 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:17,720 Speaker 7: been happening? 822 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 1: Well, you know, uh, just talking about the Cowboys and 823 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 1: not making it to the to the Super Bowl again 824 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 1: and the Eagles. You know, I don't know if you 825 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,240 Speaker 1: saw that they made it so just out here. 826 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, that's what I kind of won't touch that. 827 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 7: I hadn't been able to listen this morning because I've 828 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 7: been running crazy oven. But last night, I was listening 829 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 7: to Talking Cowboys and them guys. They got me pumped 830 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 7: up for about five minutes on the all the new coaches, 831 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 7: and then I started thinking, man, they're suckering and it's 832 00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:53,879 Speaker 7: only been over like a day or two. So I'm 833 00:41:54,440 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 7: I'm trying to like monotne my feelings right now, because yeah, 834 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 7: it sounds great, you know, all the coaching changes and 835 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 7: all that good stuff that they're doing. But until the 836 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 7: front office proves that they're gonna do a little bit 837 00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 7: of you know, free agency and good drafts to somewhat 838 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:21,280 Speaker 7: level the playing ground, I'm trying to not get sucked 839 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,720 Speaker 7: in too quick. It's we got a long off season, 840 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 7: so yeah, that's where I'm at. And you know, and 841 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 7: I'm not getting political here at all, but with seeing 842 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 7: what's going on in the politics and see and how 843 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:41,120 Speaker 7: money is what everybody's talking about, that that is where 844 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 7: we all need to focus. As long as the front 845 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 7: office is focused on money, because that's what it's all about. 846 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,919 Speaker 7: That's one. And then making to the Super Bowl too. 847 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 7: That's just my feeling. 848 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 6: Until they have to. 849 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:57,720 Speaker 7: Start tarping off the top layer of that stadium because 850 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 7: they're not making the money then maybe they'll start listening 851 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 7: to us and giving it care of what we feel. 852 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 7: But I feel like while that money's rolling in and 853 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 7: we keep packing the stadium, we keep buying the merchandise 854 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,319 Speaker 7: and all that, and they're just gonna do what makes 855 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 7: them the money. And that's that's kind of how I feel. 856 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,399 Speaker 7: Hopefully they'll prove us wrong this year. I mean, they 857 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 7: haven't done anything to say otherwise in my opinion. You know, 858 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 7: it just keeps. They just keep seeming to just do 859 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 7: what's gonna fill up the house, and whether we make 860 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 7: it or not doesn't. It's crazy, how here you here 861 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,320 Speaker 7: the old guys you know from my day, like Troy 862 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 7: and Emmett, Michael and no them. And if guys are frustrated, 863 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 7: and I honestly figured they wouldn't say much because they're like, hey, 864 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 7: look at us, what we did. Y'all can't touch what 865 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 7: we did. But they're actually voicing their opinions quite a 866 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 7: bit now, and you would think that would hold weight, 867 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 7: you know. 868 00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:54,920 Speaker 5: Not. 869 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, not really though, not to me. And that's that's 870 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: my point. And I've and and I just always I 871 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: always say this, at all due respect to the former players, 872 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 1: I just don't put a lot of a lot of 873 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,320 Speaker 1: stock into what they say about about this current team, 874 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 1: this current situation, this current locker room, all of that, 875 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: all the chemistry that they just they don't know any 876 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 1: more than us when it comes to what's going on here. Now. 877 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: Do they understand football and what makes a great team 878 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:32,239 Speaker 1: and what they need, Yes, one hundred percent they understand that. 879 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 1: But when you start getting into what's wrong with the team, 880 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: what's wrong with the culture, what's wrong with things that 881 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 1: that it's hard to actually see from the outside. I 882 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:43,279 Speaker 1: don't I don't put a ton of stock there, but 883 00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 1: I mean, but what I like about it is there's 884 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:51,359 Speaker 1: still cowboys. They always will be Troy and Michael. If 885 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,959 Speaker 1: if they're frustrated, then then you guys can relate because 886 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 1: y'all are frustrated, you know. So I like that part. 887 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 1: But sometimes I have to just pause a little bit 888 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 1: when I hear what they're saying, and I'm like, all right, 889 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 1: you know, let's see where this is really coming from. 890 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: And are they plugged in? I mean, if they are, 891 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 1: if they are talking to a lot of people inside 892 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 1: the building, didn't they are plugged in? But sometimes former 893 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: players just going off of their name and what they've done. 894 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that they know what's happening. That's just 895 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 1: that's my take on it. Again, all due respect to 896 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 1: former players and what. 897 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 7: They can can I'll put a slightly different spin on 898 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:35,359 Speaker 7: the same subject. I kind of think that they do 899 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:37,879 Speaker 7: know this front office because they worked with them, They 900 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:41,240 Speaker 7: know how they think they see what's going on because 901 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 7: I forgot who it was. It was one of our 902 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 7: guys that they were saying. You know, it feels like 903 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:52,799 Speaker 7: Jerry is always trying to prove that he can do 904 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 7: it because those three Super Bowls, Jimmy did it. Jimmy 905 00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 7: controlled all that stuff back then and he did it. 906 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,319 Speaker 7: So I think that they're I mean, yeah, it's been 907 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 7: years and years since they were in that locker room, 908 00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,759 Speaker 7: and I agree with you on that, but I think 909 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 7: that they still they know them guys up front well, 910 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,760 Speaker 7: because it's the same group, you know, it's the same family. 911 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,640 Speaker 7: I kind of have a feeling they know a little 912 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,719 Speaker 7: more than what we think they know maybe, and and 913 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 7: they're putting it out there just to let everybody else 914 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:25,120 Speaker 7: know that they know more. 915 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 8: You know. 916 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 7: I don't know if I said that, all right, but. 917 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, uh hey, it's. 918 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 7: Hey, I looked up to Troy. That was my big brother. 919 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 7: I would if I could have had a big brother. 920 00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:36,239 Speaker 6: Troy was it. 921 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 7: He was my superhero. And uh so when he talks, 922 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,360 Speaker 7: I try to listen. You know, he brought me my 923 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:43,919 Speaker 7: super Bowl. 924 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 1: So I get it. I get it. No, I'm with you. 925 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 1: I mean I'm the same way. I mean, I grew 926 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:51,719 Speaker 1: up watching all those guys and they were they were 927 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: the heroes. So yeah, and I say that, and I 928 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:59,360 Speaker 1: mean that i'd all due respect, you know, and they 929 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 1: it's a balance, you know, it's a that this whole 930 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:06,399 Speaker 1: thing what you said about, well, you know, are they 931 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:08,240 Speaker 1: trying to make money, they trying to win the Super Bowl? 932 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:12,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's a balance. And and those guys 933 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 1: that are being vocal em it, Troy Michael, I mean 934 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 1: they're not opening up restaurants, or they're not selling merchandise, 935 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:23,799 Speaker 1: or they're not on commercials and things like that. I mean, 936 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 1: they're they're still they're still making money. They're still you know, 937 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 1: using their name to to to sell products and things 938 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:34,280 Speaker 1: like that. On that side of it, which which which 939 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 1: they should do. They also have careers as well that 940 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 1: that they're doing. So it's a balance, and so I 941 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 1: I just don't agree with the is it this? Are 942 00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,359 Speaker 1: they trying to win Super Bowl? They trying to make money? 943 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,719 Speaker 1: Because it's always been it's always been both. All right, 944 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 1: Robin Vegas, rob what's up? 945 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:51,719 Speaker 7: You know? 946 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:52,799 Speaker 4: Hey? 947 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:53,799 Speaker 2: How you doing good? 948 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 1: How are you? 949 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:55,719 Speaker 17: I'm good? 950 00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:57,279 Speaker 5: You know? 951 00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:01,839 Speaker 17: I watching that Super Bowl was was awful. It was like, well, 952 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:04,320 Speaker 17: what's crazy is it was like I was watching the 953 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:08,880 Speaker 17: nineties Cowboys. The Eagles have built so much like them, 954 00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 17: where they got great lines, great running back, great wide receivers, 955 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:20,400 Speaker 17: and their quarterback isn't asked to carry the team, but 956 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 17: he's asked to make plays when he has to win, 957 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 17: and Hurts does. And what's scary is there's so much 958 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 17: better than us in every way. They're better at every 959 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 17: position group but kicker, and their front office is and 960 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,839 Speaker 17: you know they're gonna build on this team, so you're 961 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,279 Speaker 17: gonna have to contend with them for probably four or five. 962 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 17: They got a four or five year window and they're 963 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:48,760 Speaker 17: not gonna sit around. I mean, their own has sold 964 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:52,600 Speaker 17: eight percent of the team to free up six hundred 965 00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:55,560 Speaker 17: and sixty five million cash so he could go buy 966 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,040 Speaker 17: you know, spend those signing, you know, money for signing bonuses. 967 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 1: You are you wearing? Are you going to be an 968 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:03,799 Speaker 1: Eagles fan? Is that what you're telling us? 969 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 5: No, no, what I'm hearing. 970 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:12,880 Speaker 17: No, but a cowboy a cowboy fan. Yeah, wishes wishes 971 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:14,600 Speaker 17: we were like the Eagles. 972 00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 1: Good good luck, good luck with that. I know a 973 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,240 Speaker 1: team liked the Eagles, but nobody wants to be philling 974 00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 1: olp No, no, no, I fan the garbage. 975 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:28,879 Speaker 17: The city is garbage. But but that's how you build it. 976 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,480 Speaker 17: That's how you build the team. And you gotta even 977 00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 17: you got to give Kellvin more so much credit. He 978 00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 17: walks in there and he says, I know Jalen Hurts 979 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:41,800 Speaker 17: is making fifty plus, but he's not. If we focus 980 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 17: on him, we're not going to win. And he changed 981 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,799 Speaker 17: the office. We all laughed where we said, I'll kill 982 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:50,200 Speaker 17: him more. He ain't gonna run the ball. Belgity does wrong. Okay, 983 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 17: We're just we're light years away and free agency is 984 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:56,720 Speaker 17: the key. I don't want to hear about the draft. 985 00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,359 Speaker 17: I could care less about the draft if they don't 986 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 17: go get a dominant defensive lineman like the guy from 987 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:06,320 Speaker 17: Philadelphia who's a free agent, because those are men. Those 988 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 17: are grown men ready to rock and roll. The guys 989 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 17: that are coming from college are not grown men yet. 990 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:18,439 Speaker 17: I need a grown ass man right now, Go get 991 00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:22,719 Speaker 17: me uh in free agency linemen, I could always get 992 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 17: the pretty wide receiver or the running back in the draft. 993 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 17: I want grown ass men. And that's the line. Until 994 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 17: you build up that line both sides of the ball, 995 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 17: you can't compete with the Eagles. That's where they That's 996 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 17: not he destroyed. I mean they made Patrick Mahomes look 997 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 17: like a rookie. He I've never seen him lost. I 998 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 17: thought Philly would win. I didn't want to admit it 999 00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 17: to myself because I think kidsas City was kind of 1000 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 17: doing it with smoking mirror as the whole the whole year. 1001 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 17: But I just think that Mahomes will find something now. 1002 00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:00,719 Speaker 17: He had no answers. Yeah, and the Eagles are young. 1003 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 10: There's so much younger than us. 1004 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:08,680 Speaker 17: If this doesn't light a fire under Jerry, then we 1005 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:13,800 Speaker 17: have no hope. Because I agree with the last caller. 1006 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:17,880 Speaker 17: He would like to luck into a super Bowl. But 1007 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:21,360 Speaker 17: he's a money making machine. That's probably why he doesn't 1008 00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 17: spend in free agency because he would rather take that 1009 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:28,440 Speaker 17: cash and invested in oil fields, and I'm sure he 1010 00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:31,839 Speaker 17: would get a bigger return. So I I to made 1011 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:33,919 Speaker 17: that sort of reason why he doesn't do the free 1012 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 17: agency like you did. And he he was disgruntled to 1013 00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:40,759 Speaker 17: do it with CD and he was disgruntled to do 1014 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:45,840 Speaker 17: it with DAK. But that's the only reason why I 1015 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 17: think he doesn't do it. He'd rather invest that money elsewhere. 1016 00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Rob, appreciate that, you know, and I 1017 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 1: agree with some of the stuff you're saying about Philly. 1018 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:58,560 Speaker 1: I'll say this though, there's and nobody wants to hear 1019 00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 1: this when it comes to like money and stuff like that. 1020 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:05,600 Speaker 1: But like Jerry Jones and the Cowboys, could they could 1021 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 1: fill I think we did the math on this, sixty 1022 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:13,200 Speaker 1: three salary caps sixty three Like that's how much he's 1023 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 1: worth and the Cowboys are worth. Is that if they 1024 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 1: could do the salary cap sixty three times and I 1025 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:22,000 Speaker 1: don't even know what it is, it's two fifty five 1026 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 1: to sixty whatever the cap is, but that's how many 1027 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:29,200 Speaker 1: times he could do the cap. So when you're saying 1028 00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:32,719 Speaker 1: he'd rather use that money for oil, that's that's so 1029 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 1: stupid that I'll steal I'll steal a word that you 1030 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:38,920 Speaker 1: just said on the air for us that we need 1031 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 1: to not do again. But that's what that is. Like 1032 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 1: to think that the money crosses over like that is ridiculous. Okay, 1033 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 1: it is. It's not even the same. It's about building 1034 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 1: the team, structuring it with the cap and how to 1035 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 1: use the resources here. But it's not this money has 1036 00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:00,439 Speaker 1: nothing to do with that. Like I said, he'd cover 1037 00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 1: sixty three salary caps. So we're not we're not talking 1038 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 1: about that, all right, all right, Chris, did you want 1039 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:12,720 Speaker 1: to say something. 1040 00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:13,920 Speaker 18: I was gonna say about the salary cap? Said what 1041 00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 18: he cannot use money that he doesn't use on the 1042 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:21,759 Speaker 18: salary it rolls over to the next year. That money 1043 00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:25,040 Speaker 18: for the salary cap is used for the players, right, 1044 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 18: it doesn't roll over. So his statement is wrong. 1045 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:28,240 Speaker 4: Okay. 1046 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:33,200 Speaker 1: I he's got more money than that too. It's not 1047 00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 1: like you're actingly all of his money goes Well, I 1048 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,120 Speaker 1: could do this, I could. I mean, that's that's not 1049 00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:41,120 Speaker 1: that's not the case, and that's not the reason why. 1050 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,160 Speaker 1: Now I can't give you the reason on the coaching stuff. 1051 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,799 Speaker 1: I don't about head coaches and why it doesn't pay more. 1052 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:51,040 Speaker 1: I can't tell you. I don't have that one, but 1053 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 1: but it doesn't come down it's not because he doesn't 1054 00:53:54,160 --> 00:54:00,359 Speaker 1: have it. So anyway, let's go to Raza in Springfield, Virginia. Raza, Hey, Nick, 1055 00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 1: how you doing good? 1056 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:02,719 Speaker 2: How are you good? 1057 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 16: Good? 1058 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,359 Speaker 19: I just want to say, just give a shout out 1059 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,319 Speaker 19: to the show.

Well, I always listen to listen. 1070 00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 1: All right, awesome, awesome, appreciate. 1071 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:37,479 Speaker 12: It, yep. 1072 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 19: And so I just want to go over just kind 1073 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 19: of my off season wish list. And then one thing 1074 00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 19: I just want to get out off Why do we 1075 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 19: always have to be in the headlines all Sunday like 1076 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 19: that report? Why didn't need to come out? I mean, 1077 00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:54,279 Speaker 19: I guess I don't know. And then I just really 1078 00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 19: hope we get Mike got done. I don't want to 1079 00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 19: wait till an hour before Week one like Dak was. 1080 00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:02,359 Speaker 19: I just hope we get Micah done early. Just you know, 1081 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:06,400 Speaker 19: I don't want off season every week Ah, is Michael leaving? 1082 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 19: Is Michael going there? Just I just hope we get 1083 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 19: it done. 1084 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:10,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1085 00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,440 Speaker 19: And then my one question to you before I go 1086 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:16,440 Speaker 19: to my off season quick off season wish list. Do 1087 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 19: you think we'll spend in free agency this year? It's 1088 00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 19: going to be more and more like are you getting 1089 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:21,920 Speaker 19: the feeling like the past couple of years? 1090 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 1: Well, no, I think they're going to spend in free agency. 1091 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:29,240 Speaker 1: I think free agency is going to look different because 1092 00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 1: you do have so many guys that you have to 1093 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 1: that you have to sign. I mean that you're losing, 1094 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 1: so you have to you have to replace them. Do 1095 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 1: they replace them by resigning them or do they look elsewhere? 1096 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,240 Speaker 1: And I think based off a seven and ten record 1097 00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 1: and a new coaching staff and a lot of new 1098 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,360 Speaker 1: coaches around the league that are coming from different places, 1099 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:53,479 Speaker 1: I think you're going to see more players in free 1100 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 1: agencies sign than we have in the past. That doesn't 1101 00:55:56,520 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 1: necessarily mean they're going to be super aggressive means. I 1102 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 1: think they'll bring in more players because there are spots 1103 00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:08,319 Speaker 1: to fill. And I think in the past that they 1104 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:09,920 Speaker 1: kind of fall in love with their own players and 1105 00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:12,960 Speaker 1: they re sign let's say ten to twelve of their 1106 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 1: own guys. Maybe they only signed six of those and 1107 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:19,040 Speaker 1: then they signed six or seven from the outside. So 1108 00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:22,359 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna look different. It's not necessarily going 1109 00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,120 Speaker 1: to be what everybody loves, I don't think, but I 1110 00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 1: do think they're going to bring in some other players, 1111 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:29,880 Speaker 1: and hopefully one or two of them are some guys 1112 00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:32,200 Speaker 1: like like Rob said, you know some dudes, some grown 1113 00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:35,160 Speaker 1: men that they can come here and are ready to play, 1114 00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:37,239 Speaker 1: ready to compete at this highest level. 1115 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:42,360 Speaker 19: Okay, that sounds good, that sounds promising. So my wish 1116 00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 19: list is to get a wide receiver and free agency. 1117 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,040 Speaker 19: I want to free agent wide receiver instead of a rookie. 1118 00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:51,279 Speaker 19: Maybe the rookie later on, but I would hope we 1119 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 19: get like maybe Stefan Diggs pare them up with his brother. 1120 00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:57,200 Speaker 19: That would be cool if they can rehab together and everything. Yeah, 1121 00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,600 Speaker 19: feel cool thing if we could get him, or maybe 1122 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:02,400 Speaker 19: even Key and Allen, who I think might be a 1123 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:06,040 Speaker 19: free agent from Chicago. And then basically, I think this 1124 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:10,400 Speaker 19: offseason is genty our bust. I think we need genty. 1125 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:13,400 Speaker 19: This draft doesn't look so promising with like top end talent, 1126 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,280 Speaker 19: so I just really hope we get genty and uh 1127 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 19: that's just my thoughts. I think it's genty your bust 1128 00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 19: for next year. 1129 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 1: Okay, thanks for taking. 1130 00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 19: My call, and you know, enjoy it all. 1131 00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 1: Right, Well, thank you. You know, I don't think they'll 1132 00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:30,080 Speaker 1: ever have that mentality on the draft of so and so, 1133 00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 1: you know, or bust. I mean, you know, there's other 1134 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:37,760 Speaker 1: There's gonna be other players obviously in the first round, 1135 00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 1: uh that could come in and help. And then as 1136 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:42,320 Speaker 1: far as the running back position goes, I mean I 1137 00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 1: think that they'll sign back a proven solid back and 1138 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 1: that could be Rico Daddle because I mean I think 1139 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:53,640 Speaker 1: of for a thousand yard rushing season, he's he's proven 1140 00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:59,040 Speaker 1: that he can be good, uh solid to good, but 1141 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 1: he's that's not necessarily the difference maker. I think Rico 1142 00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:05,640 Speaker 1: Dodda will be a solid number two. I know he's 1143 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 1: probably his agent. They're gonna probably try to get, you know, 1144 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,400 Speaker 1: more than that and and maybe go to a place 1145 00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,440 Speaker 1: where he could he could start. So you know, I 1146 00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 1: think you can you sign those guys, you sign that 1147 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 1: that type of player. That doesn't mean that you don't 1148 00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:22,680 Speaker 1: go and draft your your running back, but you're gonna 1149 00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:26,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna sign a running back in free agency and 1150 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,120 Speaker 1: uh and have him here, have him on the roster, 1151 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 1: and then you know, then you don't have to go 1152 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 1: and get a guy in the first round. But if 1153 00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 1: he's there, you still do it. And then you've got 1154 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:38,520 Speaker 1: two guys, but they're gonna try to cover you know, 1155 00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:41,800 Speaker 1: they're gonna put band aids on some of these wounds 1156 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 1: at different positions and then hope that that you know, 1157 00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:47,640 Speaker 1: you you can upgrade when you get to the draft 1158 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 1: if you need it. All right, let's go to Dylan 1159 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:52,080 Speaker 1: in Northport, Florida. 1160 00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:54,000 Speaker 6: Heydeck, how you doing good? 1161 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 1: How are you? 1162 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:56,120 Speaker 13: I'm good man. 1163 00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:59,360 Speaker 20: So you're talking about free agency and draft and all 1164 00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 20: this stuff, and we always have like just crazy amounts 1165 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:04,560 Speaker 20: of needs. They play this like one year, two year 1166 00:59:04,600 --> 00:59:08,120 Speaker 20: contract game with their guys a lot, and so they're 1167 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 20: constantly in this bucket where there's like twenty plus guys 1168 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:12,120 Speaker 20: that need to get refreshed or positions that need to 1169 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:14,720 Speaker 20: get refreshed and they're bringing you know, lower chier guys 1170 00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:17,400 Speaker 20: again to refresh those positions, and that's fine, but this 1171 00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 20: year they're losing some like cornerstone guys, like potentially losing, 1172 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 20: I should say, like a Zach Martin, Like at DeMarcus Lawrence. 1173 00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:27,600 Speaker 20: You got Jordan Lewis and Osa obviously up and PFS 1174 00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:29,360 Speaker 20: is saying, OHSA is going to catch like twenty million 1175 00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:31,439 Speaker 20: a year. I'm out at that point. There's no way 1176 00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 20: I'll go draft a guy or get a big beefy 1177 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:37,560 Speaker 20: boy in free agency for cheap and cheaper than that, 1178 00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:41,080 Speaker 20: I should say. But everybody's freaking out about kind of 1179 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:43,560 Speaker 20: there's like a civil war going on right now in 1180 00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:45,320 Speaker 20: cowboy Land. I don't know if you pay attention to 1181 00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 20: Twitter much at all or not, but people are ready 1182 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:50,400 Speaker 20: to like fight each other over she would grab gent 1183 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:53,920 Speaker 20: in the trash. We would go running back detackle offensive lineman. 1184 00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:57,200 Speaker 20: If you mentioned grabbing an offensive lineman on Twitter, Oh 1185 00:59:57,240 --> 00:59:59,640 Speaker 20: my god, dude, good luck, good luck. You're You're dead 1186 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,720 Speaker 20: to half a cowboys population out there. And I think 1187 01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:05,520 Speaker 20: that's silly because to me, you look at the names. 1188 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:07,439 Speaker 20: I don't know why you look at the names. Right 1189 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:11,520 Speaker 20: and three out of the five positions I think are 1190 01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:14,880 Speaker 20: very questionable, and there's a pretty low ceiling or a 1191 01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:18,720 Speaker 20: moderate ceiling on those positions. You know, Tyler Smith and 1192 01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:20,920 Speaker 20: Deb the other two guys that I'm confident and continue 1193 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:23,080 Speaker 20: to improve and play better. The other three spots, I 1194 01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:24,919 Speaker 20: don't know, And I think people are freaking out because 1195 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:28,200 Speaker 20: they've already dedicated resources to those and to me. So 1196 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 20: I don't care if you've dedicated the resources. If they're 1197 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 20: not working out or they're not good enough, nothing else 1198 01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:35,720 Speaker 20: matters until just like that one call, I forget his name, 1199 01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 20: but he always ends it with got to have d 1200 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:39,200 Speaker 20: line or no line, right, And if you watch the 1201 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:42,240 Speaker 20: Eagles Flinn in Super Bowl, nothing was more true than that. 1202 01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:45,960 Speaker 1: Well, you're referring to Lester in Minnesota, who's actually on 1203 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:49,080 Speaker 1: the line. He'll be calling or he'll be talking here 1204 01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:53,600 Speaker 1: after you. So you're right. I mean that it doesn't 1205 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:56,520 Speaker 1: matter if it didn't work, It doesn't mean you keep 1206 01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 1: using it. 1207 01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:57,600 Speaker 11: You know what I mean. 1208 01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:59,520 Speaker 1: If you buy a car and it doesn't run, you 1209 01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:03,000 Speaker 1: don't keep driving it, you know, I mean, if you've 1210 01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:06,160 Speaker 1: got to get you got to get something better. And 1211 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:10,000 Speaker 1: I agree with that. Now I guess what the question 1212 01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:13,960 Speaker 1: is is Terrence Steel, Like what what is the thought 1213 01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:17,040 Speaker 1: on him? Is he is he broke down? Is he 1214 01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 1: is he a guy that they can still you know, 1215 01:01:19,680 --> 01:01:24,920 Speaker 1: lean on. That's that's one where I think that they're 1216 01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:28,080 Speaker 1: probably not going to make a change there. And they 1217 01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:30,320 Speaker 1: may they may try to lower his base salary, but 1218 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:33,520 Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to go for that. And yeah, 1219 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 1: you know that that one's going to be interesting. There's 1220 01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:38,160 Speaker 1: a lot of options there. You could you could you 1221 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:43,040 Speaker 1: can release him or try to, you know, alter his 1222 01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:43,880 Speaker 1: contract a little. 1223 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:46,360 Speaker 20: I think we know what his ceiling is, and that's fine. 1224 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:48,439 Speaker 20: I mean there's only got, i think what two years 1225 01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:50,560 Speaker 20: left at most on us contracts, So it just kind 1226 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:53,000 Speaker 20: of is what it is over there. If he's your 1227 01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:55,680 Speaker 20: worst offensive lineman, that's fine. I'm cool with that. But 1228 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,480 Speaker 20: I mean they don't have, you know, guidance obviously questionable. 1229 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,200 Speaker 20: The right guard positions I was questionable right now with 1230 01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:04,080 Speaker 20: with Martin and his future and everything going on. So 1231 01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:05,400 Speaker 20: and I'm not saying they have to go out and 1232 01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:07,240 Speaker 20: pick a guy in the first round on on the 1233 01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:09,280 Speaker 20: offensive line. I'm just thinking if he shapes up that way, 1234 01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:11,320 Speaker 20: that's fine. I'm what I'm hoping for is to trade 1235 01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 20: back scenario because they have you can throw a rock 1236 01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:15,640 Speaker 20: at this team and you're gonna hit a hole. I mean, 1237 01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:19,360 Speaker 20: they got hold everywhere, needs everywhere. So just best best 1238 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:22,640 Speaker 20: player available potentially or trade back, I mean whatever. And 1239 01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:24,760 Speaker 20: then last thing, real quick as far as pr agency goes, 1240 01:02:24,920 --> 01:02:26,560 Speaker 20: don't you know kind to sign a big contract guy. 1241 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:29,959 Speaker 20: There's a lot of big names, key contributors for moderate prices, 1242 01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:32,880 Speaker 20: especially like linebacker and defensive interior. That's why I'm looking 1243 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:34,800 Speaker 20: at in free agency is the middle of the defense 1244 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:35,760 Speaker 20: and see what I can do there. 1245 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:37,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you got to you got to hit. 1246 01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:39,400 Speaker 1: I mean I think I think of all all thanks 1247 01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:42,040 Speaker 1: for the call, Dylan. I mean I think the Eagles, 1248 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 1: you know, when you're looking at what they did obviously 1249 01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,800 Speaker 1: that they made the big move to get sakuon Barkley, 1250 01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 1: but you know what, and that put them over the 1251 01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:53,440 Speaker 1: top of course on offense. Uh And I think it 1252 01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:57,960 Speaker 1: made Kellen Moore look like a great offensive coordinator and 1253 01:02:58,040 --> 01:02:59,920 Speaker 1: he helped him get a head coaching job. That's not 1254 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:01,920 Speaker 1: for did I mean he was with the Chargers and 1255 01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:03,520 Speaker 1: he had a lot of talent over there and it 1256 01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:07,480 Speaker 1: didn't didn't really work out, and so you know, players matter. 1257 01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:12,400 Speaker 1: But was Zach Bond on the other side, what a 1258 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:14,960 Speaker 1: great move that was, you know, And that wasn't it 1259 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:18,240 Speaker 1: wasn't a player that that was highly coveted. I mean, 1260 01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:21,680 Speaker 1: that was just a player that that that their coaches 1261 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:24,760 Speaker 1: had a vision for. And that's what that's what you need. 1262 01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:28,680 Speaker 1: That's what needs to happen here. You know, you've got 1263 01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:30,320 Speaker 1: to hit on some of these. You've got to look 1264 01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:32,520 Speaker 1: at it and go, yeah, Okay, this guy may not 1265 01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:35,840 Speaker 1: be considered a top name or a top draft pick 1266 01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:40,800 Speaker 1: or whatever, but he fits for me. And I always remember, 1267 01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:45,000 Speaker 1: I always tell this story about Anthony Hitchins, the linebacker 1268 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:50,440 Speaker 1: from Iowa that mel kiper or Todd McShay had as 1269 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:53,880 Speaker 1: a sixth or seventh rounder. But Rod Marinelli thought he 1270 01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:57,200 Speaker 1: was he was gonna be somebody special. He had a 1271 01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:59,560 Speaker 1: vision for his defense, and they picked him in the 1272 01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:02,600 Speaker 1: fourth or out and a lot of people scoffed that 1273 01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:04,400 Speaker 1: that was a reach. Well, he had one hundred tackles 1274 01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:06,640 Speaker 1: as a rookie, made All Rookie team and started just 1275 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:09,280 Speaker 1: about every game and played about ten years. And I 1276 01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:11,840 Speaker 1: know he went to the Chiefs won some Super Bowls 1277 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:14,200 Speaker 1: for them as well. But my point is is that 1278 01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:17,960 Speaker 1: is that the coaches really need That's why coaches and 1279 01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:20,840 Speaker 1: scouts have to work together when they're doing these these 1280 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:24,480 Speaker 1: the draft process because it's not only yes, you've graded 1281 01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 1: him here, Now what can I do with him? And 1282 01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:31,760 Speaker 1: you know that's that's the big thing. Let's go to 1283 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:33,800 Speaker 1: a break here real quick on storyline.

I 1314 01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:11,720 Speaker 5: know you saw that and this show here I appreciate. 1315 01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:15,160 Speaker 5: I've heard a lot of callers in talking about the 1316 01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 5: offensive and defensive line. I even heard you saying something 1317 01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:20,439 Speaker 5: about it. And then the reason why I say all 1318 01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:24,480 Speaker 5: that is because again, if you're a quarterback, if you 1319 01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:27,000 Speaker 5: don't have offensive line, your quarterback is on his back. 1320 01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:30,200 Speaker 5: You can't run the ball. And if you don't have 1321 01:06:30,240 --> 01:06:33,919 Speaker 5: a defensive line, you can't stop anybody. But what I'm 1322 01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:37,400 Speaker 5: also hearing today is that there's the people, a lot 1323 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 5: of seem like a few people frustrated about spending money 1324 01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:45,680 Speaker 5: and this and that. Well I'm not a salary cap 1325 01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:49,760 Speaker 5: ologist or anything like that, but I did take accounting 1326 01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:52,920 Speaker 5: in college, and there are ways. That's a lot of 1327 01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:57,480 Speaker 5: creative ways you can stack the money, nick, And It'll 1328 01:06:57,520 --> 01:06:59,440 Speaker 5: take me about an hour to get into it. So 1329 01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 5: I think I don't know if they are using some 1330 01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:05,480 Speaker 5: of those creative ways. I'm sure they are using some, 1331 01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 5: but they're more than what they're using. Probably you can 1332 01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:14,200 Speaker 5: do a lot to manipulate a counting. You really can, 1333 01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 5: I mean, you really really really can. Yeah, So it 1334 01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:20,200 Speaker 5: would take me a long time to kind of get 1335 01:07:20,240 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 5: into it. And I think that's the frustration because we 1336 01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:27,200 Speaker 5: see these other teams manipulating, and I know that philosophy 1337 01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:30,400 Speaker 5: is different from every team to team, but it just 1338 01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:34,120 Speaker 5: seems it seems like without knowing that they're not using 1339 01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:39,520 Speaker 5: a lot of the counting manipulation tools and sound. I'm sure, 1340 01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:42,520 Speaker 5: but it's a lot. 1341 01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:42,800 Speaker 3: Man. 1342 01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:46,440 Speaker 5: But anyway, I just called in to say, Hey, how 1343 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:49,760 Speaker 5: you doing Cowboys fans. I didn't really like the results 1344 01:07:49,760 --> 01:07:52,480 Speaker 5: of the Super Bowl because it wasn't any Cowboys in there. 1345 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:55,560 Speaker 5: But I did like the offensive and defensive line, and 1346 01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:59,560 Speaker 5: until we get a good to great offensive line and 1347 01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:02,200 Speaker 5: deep at the same time, this is what we got. 1348 01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:05,120 Speaker 5: Cowboys Fans go Cowboys. 1349 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 1: All right, all right, Lester. I think this team can 1350 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:13,680 Speaker 1: I mean, they obviously can do better. I mean they 1351 01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:17,200 Speaker 1: can do better with with uh building the roster to 1352 01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:20,599 Speaker 1: say they don't manipulate the cap and all that. Again, 1353 01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:23,600 Speaker 1: a lot of you guys are talking about stuff that 1354 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:26,360 Speaker 1: you just don't know about, like like and I can't. 1355 01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:29,120 Speaker 1: And I'm not telling you that you're that you're right 1356 01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 1: or wrong because I don't know either, Like we don't 1357 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:35,320 Speaker 1: know the specifics of the contract. Okay, and I'm sorry, 1358 01:08:35,360 --> 01:08:38,639 Speaker 1: but spotrack and Overthecap dot Com don't get into all 1359 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:41,600 Speaker 1: of the specifics of the contracts as well. So just 1360 01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 1: because you go to these websites and you can see 1361 01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:46,680 Speaker 1: what other people report off of it, doesn't mean you 1362 01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:49,280 Speaker 1: know exactly what they're doing and what they did with 1363 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:52,240 Speaker 1: Zach Martin's contract two years ago when he held out, 1364 01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:55,040 Speaker 1: and then how they they manipulated this to get it 1365 01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 1: to where they are right now and now he's going 1366 01:08:57,280 --> 01:08:59,599 Speaker 1: to be a free agent, but they're probably gonna cut 1367 01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:02,920 Speaker 1: him from and make them a June one cut. And 1368 01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:05,679 Speaker 1: I mean like there's a lot of things involved here, 1369 01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:07,679 Speaker 1: and so to sit here and say that they don't 1370 01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:11,320 Speaker 1: do it, No, that's not what it is. Let's just 1371 01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:14,760 Speaker 1: be real clear what it is. Other teams are better 1372 01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:17,760 Speaker 1: than the Cowboys right now. They got better players. They 1373 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:21,560 Speaker 1: they've drafted better, they've got better for in free agency. 1374 01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:24,559 Speaker 1: They've just put the team together in a better way. 1375 01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:28,679 Speaker 1: That's what it is. So there's a lot of teams. 1376 01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:31,599 Speaker 1: There's some good football teams that did not make it 1377 01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:33,280 Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl, that didn't make it to the 1378 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:37,000 Speaker 1: championship game. Cowboys were not a good team. They were 1379 01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:39,680 Speaker 1: an average team, a little bit below average, and they 1380 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:42,360 Speaker 1: didn't they didn't make it there. Now every year is different. 1381 01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:45,759 Speaker 1: To start this thing over again, you know, they they've 1382 01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:49,200 Speaker 1: hopefully they won't have as many injuries, but they need 1383 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:52,640 Speaker 1: to be they need to build this team better so 1384 01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 1: than they did before that when they do have these 1385 01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:57,439 Speaker 1: injuries that that they can they can you know, plug 1386 01:09:57,479 --> 01:10:01,160 Speaker 1: and play better players. So I'm not sitting here I'm 1387 01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:02,800 Speaker 1: going to try to tell you that hey, it's it's 1388 01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:05,240 Speaker 1: not as bad as you think it's. It's bad. I 1389 01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:07,320 Speaker 1: mean it was a bad and it and it doesn't 1390 01:10:07,360 --> 01:10:10,400 Speaker 1: look better. With Philadelphia bringing a lot of guys back, 1391 01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:14,320 Speaker 1: Washington looks like they're ready to to take another step, 1392 01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:16,720 Speaker 1: and they already took a big step last year. So 1393 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 1: it's going to be a challenge. Your schedule is going 1394 01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:20,800 Speaker 1: to be going to be tough, even as a third 1395 01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:23,040 Speaker 1: play schedule, it's going to it's going to be tough. 1396 01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 1: But you know, I still think the Cowboys have really 1397 01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:30,599 Speaker 1: good players on this team, but they needed to get 1398 01:10:30,920 --> 01:10:34,719 Speaker 1: they needed to stock pile some some you know, good players. 1399 01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:35,320 Speaker 3: Uh. 1400 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:37,639 Speaker 1: I think they've got great players, but they need they 1401 01:10:37,640 --> 01:10:39,920 Speaker 1: need a lot more good players. And that's what I think. 1402 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,400 Speaker 1: You know, build your team. Let's go to Ronnie in 1403 01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:50,080 Speaker 1: New Jersey. What's up? No, No, listen, I'm not I'm 1404 01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:53,599 Speaker 1: not frustrated. It's just that I I know a lot 1405 01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:55,760 Speaker 1: of people in the building here. I know I know 1406 01:10:55,840 --> 01:10:58,680 Speaker 1: the people that deal with the CAP I don't necessarily 1407 01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:00,880 Speaker 1: understand all the things that happen, and I definitely don't 1408 01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:04,360 Speaker 1: know what goes on behind the scenes, which means you 1409 01:11:04,439 --> 01:11:07,240 Speaker 1: guys don't either. So what are we talking about here. 1410 01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:10,880 Speaker 1: Here's what we know. Cowboys aren't good enough right now. 1411 01:11:10,920 --> 01:11:12,800 Speaker 1: They have not been good enough. They weren't good enough 1412 01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:15,320 Speaker 1: to even make it to the playoffs last year. So 1413 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:17,920 Speaker 1: they figure out a way to get better than that. 1414 01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:22,160 Speaker 1: But to say that they don't manipulate the cap, I mean, yes, 1415 01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:26,280 Speaker 1: they do it. Had they hit right, No they haven't, 1416 01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:28,360 Speaker 1: they haven't. They need to do a better job whatever 1417 01:11:28,400 --> 01:11:30,400 Speaker 1: they're doing. They need to do a better job. But 1418 01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:32,760 Speaker 1: to say that they're sitting back and they just run 1419 01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 1: these you know, cookie cutter contracts that are black and white, 1420 01:11:36,680 --> 01:11:39,240 Speaker 1: that's not the case, all right, sorry, Ronnie. 1421 01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:43,479 Speaker 6: I think the frustrating part is nicking where everybody mentions 1422 01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:46,120 Speaker 6: the cap. And that's why everybody's talking about the cap, 1423 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:49,559 Speaker 6: the cap, the cap, because it seems like Philadelphia and 1424 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:51,360 Speaker 6: all these other teams they were supposed to be in 1425 01:11:51,439 --> 01:11:54,439 Speaker 6: salary cap hell and all this stuff. We're all, well, 1426 01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:57,639 Speaker 6: wait until they signed Jalen Hurts. I remember where Ryan 1427 01:11:57,680 --> 01:12:00,760 Speaker 6: carteris was like, well when the sign bra her Sy, 1428 01:12:01,080 --> 01:12:04,800 Speaker 6: they're gonna be the same situation we are. And and 1429 01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:06,160 Speaker 6: they're not, well. 1430 01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:09,000 Speaker 1: They they haven't. They haven't done anything with Hurts yet. 1431 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:11,040 Speaker 1: I mean, like they signed him, but it's not it's 1432 01:12:11,040 --> 01:12:13,800 Speaker 1: not until your third year or so, because you remember that, 1433 01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:16,240 Speaker 1: you know, they signed Dak a couple of times too, 1434 01:12:16,280 --> 01:12:19,040 Speaker 1: and and when you first sign him that you can 1435 01:12:19,080 --> 01:12:22,000 Speaker 1: you can make the contract however you want. It's about 1436 01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:25,560 Speaker 1: that third year when it really hits. But again, Philadelphia, 1437 01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:29,320 Speaker 1: they they've they've they've added help. That's the thing that 1438 01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:33,800 Speaker 1: Philadelphia did is they signed him, but then they they 1439 01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:36,840 Speaker 1: gave him a running game. And that's what the Cowboys 1440 01:12:37,479 --> 01:12:40,559 Speaker 1: haven't done. They're like leaned on on Dak, like, hey, 1441 01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,840 Speaker 1: here here's the guy Dak and CD it's okay if 1442 01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:46,600 Speaker 1: if if you run the ball. Philadelphia approved that you know, 1443 01:12:46,960 --> 01:12:49,640 Speaker 1: hurts one m v P. But he wasn't. You know, 1444 01:12:49,720 --> 01:12:51,800 Speaker 1: he had good, solid numbers. But I mean they were 1445 01:12:51,880 --> 01:12:55,160 Speaker 1: leaning on the defense and and and they leaned on Barkley, 1446 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:58,120 Speaker 1: and the Chiefs took Barkley away, and look what happened. 1447 01:12:59,240 --> 01:13:02,040 Speaker 6: It's also for us because we've had our chances. We 1448 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:07,120 Speaker 6: have some good things and and these teams and listen, 1449 01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:11,000 Speaker 6: we're watching our rivals being in the championship game. Okay, 1450 01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:13,000 Speaker 6: that's one thing. Then you see one of our rivals 1451 01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:15,599 Speaker 6: winning the super Bowl. That's another thing that's like more 1452 01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:18,640 Speaker 6: frustration build up on top of frustration, and then us 1453 01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:21,280 Speaker 6: not being able to even get to like the second 1454 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:23,600 Speaker 6: round or pass the second round. It's where you know, 1455 01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:27,160 Speaker 6: I think all of us are fair. And you said, Jerry, 1456 01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:29,640 Speaker 6: don't listen to the show. I mean, if I know, 1457 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:32,240 Speaker 6: you've been asked that. But if he was to listen 1458 01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:34,439 Speaker 6: to the show, he will understand that this is where 1459 01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:38,240 Speaker 6: all the fans are at. Like this, all this frustration 1460 01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:40,760 Speaker 6: that you're getting, like people are getting your calls are 1461 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:44,160 Speaker 6: coming through. That's that's just like build up, you know 1462 01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:46,799 Speaker 6: what I'm saying over the years, and now you're seeing 1463 01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:50,240 Speaker 6: Philadelphia being in the super Bowl twice and winning it once. 1464 01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:53,679 Speaker 6: So that's the most hated team in our in our 1465 01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:57,280 Speaker 6: in our rivalry right now, like and there's been because 1466 01:13:57,280 --> 01:14:01,280 Speaker 6: of the way they are. But when they the salary cap, Tynick, 1467 01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:04,559 Speaker 6: I think it's a because because Stephen Jones and Jerry 1468 01:14:04,640 --> 01:14:07,320 Speaker 6: Jones always talk about the cap. That's that's their number 1469 01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:09,760 Speaker 6: one thing. They mentioned the cap. So that's why we 1470 01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:12,320 Speaker 6: are like sold into the cap. The cap. The cap 1471 01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:16,000 Speaker 6: well is Philadelphia, are they smarter than than than the 1472 01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:17,760 Speaker 6: Joneses dealing with the cap. 1473 01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:21,720 Speaker 9: Are the Rams or any of these other Now, I 1474 01:14:21,840 --> 01:14:22,920 Speaker 9: tell you what they're doing better. 1475 01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:25,559 Speaker 1: I tell you what those teams are doing better than 1476 01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:30,360 Speaker 1: the Cowboys is there. They're drafting better, they're drafting better. 1477 01:14:30,800 --> 01:14:33,400 Speaker 1: I mean you can say free agency, Yeah, free agency. 1478 01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:35,920 Speaker 1: The Eagles did a much better drop in free agency obviously, 1479 01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:40,160 Speaker 1: but they they're drafting better and that and so you know, 1480 01:14:40,360 --> 01:14:43,679 Speaker 1: Will McClay doesn't get a pass anymore. Okay with Will McClay. 1481 01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:45,840 Speaker 1: They have to draft better. The last two or three 1482 01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:49,519 Speaker 1: years have not been good. Their second round picks, third 1483 01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:52,320 Speaker 1: round picks, even first round picks haven't hit. Hit the 1484 01:14:52,360 --> 01:14:55,840 Speaker 1: success you got the Eagles got defensive players scoring touchdowns. 1485 01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:58,960 Speaker 1: You've got, you've got defensive rookies of the year. I mean, 1486 01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:01,360 Speaker 1: they're draft thing better then. 1487 01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:04,559 Speaker 6: The reason we don't put so much on the play. 1488 01:15:05,160 --> 01:15:09,040 Speaker 6: Uh yeah, these past couple of first round picks haven't hit. 1489 01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:12,599 Speaker 6: But the second round picks, everybody knows. Well, the way 1490 01:15:12,640 --> 01:15:15,960 Speaker 6: it seems, it seems like it's more Jerry Jones, because 1491 01:15:16,040 --> 01:15:19,840 Speaker 6: Jones likes Jerry likes taking risk on hurt guys, and 1492 01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:23,120 Speaker 6: he's been taking risk on hurt guys for years now. 1493 01:15:23,240 --> 01:15:26,599 Speaker 6: So so yeah, that's that's that's like, that's like the 1494 01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:29,160 Speaker 6: comment that they gave you, like, well, with a team 1495 01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:32,519 Speaker 6: won the Super Bowl whatever, a player with one hand 1496 01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:35,519 Speaker 6: behind their back work or which is the one hand player. 1497 01:15:35,560 --> 01:15:37,599 Speaker 6: That's what you're doing when you're taking away a second 1498 01:15:37,680 --> 01:15:41,240 Speaker 6: round pick and investing it in an either guy or 1499 01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:44,479 Speaker 6: in a a guy that you know it's not going 1500 01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:47,320 Speaker 6: to start this year or whatever. You need this draft. 1501 01:15:47,960 --> 01:15:50,679 Speaker 6: You need help now, Like you need help with free agents, 1502 01:15:50,720 --> 01:15:53,080 Speaker 6: you need help now, you need help with with the 1503 01:15:53,120 --> 01:15:55,440 Speaker 6: whole draft. So I think that's where the frustrations. 1504 01:15:55,479 --> 01:15:58,840 Speaker 1: But you say that's that's easy though, Like you're right, 1505 01:15:59,120 --> 01:16:01,200 Speaker 1: there have been out of that in the second round. 1506 01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:02,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if the last two picks in the 1507 01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:05,200 Speaker 1: second round or were that type of picks. I mean, 1508 01:16:05,240 --> 01:16:10,439 Speaker 1: I I schoonmaker Marshawn Neeland. I don't they missed and 1509 01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:12,439 Speaker 1: and and that's the thing. And I love Will McClay 1510 01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:15,120 Speaker 1: and I'm so happy that they brought him back. And 1511 01:16:15,120 --> 01:16:18,680 Speaker 1: I'm glad that that he's here. You know, he he 1512 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:22,960 Speaker 1: he has GM type duties. Okay, he does, he does, 1513 01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:25,639 Speaker 1: he has I mean he's not the not the GM, 1514 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:28,760 Speaker 1: but he gets He gets leaned on a lot in there, 1515 01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:32,240 Speaker 1: both free agency and the draft and so and he 1516 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:34,640 Speaker 1: knows that they have to do better. They have to 1517 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,840 Speaker 1: draft better. Uh, you can say what you want about 1518 01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:39,519 Speaker 1: free agency, but if if your plan is to lean 1519 01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:42,240 Speaker 1: on the draft, then then they they have to to 1520 01:16:42,360 --> 01:16:44,240 Speaker 1: draft better than they have the last two or three years, 1521 01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:47,000 Speaker 1: because they really haven't been that good. I think for 1522 01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:49,400 Speaker 1: the last three years. Micah was was a huge hit. 1523 01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:52,479 Speaker 1: Deron Bland was a hit, but you know he he 1524 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 1: got hurt, took a step back. Jake Ferguson made a 1525 01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:57,280 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl but took a step back last year, also 1526 01:16:57,320 --> 01:16:59,840 Speaker 1: got hurt. So they need to do more of those 1527 01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:01,559 Speaker 1: and get more of those. Let's go one more called 1528 01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:03,519 Speaker 1: Ali in Florida.

You took some of my point. 1533 01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:23,479 Speaker 22: You're right as far as the dark is sixty million 1534 01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:28,600 Speaker 22: dollar quarterback right now, offensive lawn is the most important 1535 01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:30,800 Speaker 22: defensive tackle and running back. 1536 01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:32,680 Speaker 13: They have a lot of album. I mean it's a 1537 01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:35,840 Speaker 13: pretty deep but if you look at the Super Bowl 1538 01:17:37,160 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 13: Jalen Harrits has a big, huge pocket in front of 1539 01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:43,799 Speaker 13: me versus my home, and all I have to say, 1540 01:17:44,120 --> 01:17:46,920 Speaker 13: and let me know when do you want to with 1541 01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:50,800 Speaker 13: his pictures?

Darren 1544 01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:02,840 Speaker 1: said he likes the I Maybe maybe that was a 1545 01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:08,800 Speaker 1: Mica reference, who knows, but no, I mean again, and 1546 01:18:09,080 --> 01:18:10,919 Speaker 1: this is not just for our least is for everybody. 1547 01:18:11,080 --> 01:18:13,320 Speaker 1: This is for Rob in Vegas. This is for running 1548 01:18:13,360 --> 01:18:15,920 Speaker 1: New Jersey, Dylan Lester, all of them that have called 1549 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:19,759 Speaker 1: here lately, and and and and I totally get the frustration. 1550 01:18:19,880 --> 01:18:22,080 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, let's let's argue about the things that 1551 01:18:22,120 --> 01:18:26,200 Speaker 1: we kind of know about. But whatever the strategy is, 1552 01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:29,960 Speaker 1: whatever it is, it just hasn't been good enough. And 1553 01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:33,000 Speaker 1: y'all know that I know it, and they know it. 1554 01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:37,439 Speaker 1: Hopefully they know it as well, and so and so 1555 01:18:37,600 --> 01:18:40,920 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not trying to side with them. What 1556 01:18:40,960 --> 01:18:44,639 Speaker 1: I'm saying is is that you know, just because it's 1557 01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:47,160 Speaker 1: see you see it one way or another, that doesn't 1558 01:18:47,200 --> 01:18:49,360 Speaker 1: mean they're not trying here. But it hasn't worked. It 1559 01:18:49,479 --> 01:18:51,519 Speaker 1: just hasn't worked, and I get that. Y'all see it, 1560 01:18:51,560 --> 01:18:54,519 Speaker 1: and we all see that that that too, So your 1561 01:18:54,560 --> 01:18:58,719 Speaker 1: frustration is warranted. It's never fun to see the Eagles 1562 01:18:58,760 --> 01:19:01,360 Speaker 1: win because because you know that's two games on your 1563 01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:03,960 Speaker 1: schedule that are gonna be tough. Home and away. That's 1564 01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:05,840 Speaker 1: always gonna be tough, and it's gonna be really tough 1565 01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:07,840 Speaker 1: because you're not even close to him right now, not 1566 01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:08,320 Speaker 1: even close. 1567 01:19:08,439 --> 01:19:08,600 Speaker 21: Was it? 1568 01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:11,559 Speaker 1: Seventy five to thirteen? That's the two scores and Dak 1569 01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:14,439 Speaker 1: didn't play, But he's not making up seventy five to 1570 01:19:14,520 --> 01:19:17,040 Speaker 1: thirteen just because he's in there. I don't think it's 1571 01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:19,360 Speaker 1: a lot more than that. They won fourteen games in 1572 01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:22,559 Speaker 1: the regular season and then four more and you won seven. 1573 01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:26,320 Speaker 1: Not even close right now, not even close. And that's 1574 01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:27,840 Speaker 1: a tough thing. That's where they got to get to 1575 01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:30,040 Speaker 1: and they got to keep building for that. All right, guys, 1576 01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:32,960 Speaker 1: great show, appreciate it. We'll be back next Wednesday to 1577 01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:34,720 Speaker 1: talk about it again.
