Probably like six it was, no, it was undred, definitely, 14 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: it's probably a round one hundred, probably around one hundred 15 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: and fifteen twenties.

So the show is now going 18 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 1: to be really, really great. So I'm glad you guys 19 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: tuned in today. Here's some of this good talk on 20 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys football, and we've got some stuff to talk about 21 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: Cowboys have gotten a little busy this week in free agency. 22 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: There are three players that have been in the building. 23 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: One at the Cowboys have signed this week and now. Actually, 24 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: there are a couple of other guys that have been signed. 25 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 1: We'll get into some of those a little bit later, 26 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: but I want to start first with the big signing. Yesterday, 27 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: Cowboys agreed to terms with Randall Cobb, wide receiver from 28 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers. They signed him to a one year, 29 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,559 Speaker 1: five million dollar deal. He is an eight year vet 30 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 1: twenty eight years old. His best season was in two fourteen, 31 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 1: where he had ninety one catches, one hundred and eighty 32 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: seven yards twelve touchdowns. Phenomenal year. However, he's missed only 33 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: eleven games in the last three seasons. It's not horrible, 34 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: but not great. And in twenty eighteen had nine games 35 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: that he played, six starts, thirty eight receptions, three hundred 36 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: and eighty three yards, two touchdowns. Why they're dropping two 37 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: thousand and eighteen, let's start there, well as I'll go ahead. Sorry, Well, 38 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 1: the team wasn't very good either, I mean, like, um, 39 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers dropped, I mean a lot of I mean 40 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: that they had issues obviously, we're, as Parcels would say, 41 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 1: trying to keep you know, our house from burning down. 42 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: So I don't really know exactly what was going on there, 43 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: but I know that their team wasn't as good and 44 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: and you know that's Randall Cobb has been a really 45 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,839 Speaker 1: good player for for that team and on a great 46 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: quarterback and with a great quarterback. Uh so when when 47 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 1: he has has struggled and you know, they've had a 48 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: lot of dysfunction, it seemed like with the offense and 49 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 1: hoop pointing fingers and all that. So uh, you know, 50 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: he was a good role player and it all kind 51 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 1: of went down and so um, but he's still those 52 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: two touchdowns, one of them I believe was a seventy 53 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: five yard touchdown to win the game against the Bear. 54 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: So he's got some down field production that's that you 55 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: don't we haven't seen from a slot receiver. Yeah, they 56 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: started the opening day with him, and I mean they've 57 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 1: they've really featured him. He made some incredible plays and 58 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: then as you go through this season, you know there 59 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 1: was a couple of times the Washington game, you know, 60 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: his numbers were low. I was trying to kind of 61 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 1: see division opponents maybe somebody that he played that you know, 62 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: he would play against in Washington just happened to be 63 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: one of them. I mean, he runs a route that's 64 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: beautiful that you know, gets himself inside and it drops 65 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: the ball. It would have been probably a sixty yard pass. 66 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: But he doesn't drop many passes. I mean, Nick's right. 67 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: I think where that they had some dysfunction with the offense. 68 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: The quarterback was you know, kind of off early, he 69 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: got banged up a little bit, and then they were 70 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: trying to get him to football, you know when they could. 71 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: But it just he's still when you watch him play, 72 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: everything underneath is really really good, you know. And you know, 73 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: obviously I think, oh you can use him as an 74 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: outside receiver as well down the field. I don't know 75 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: if it's that, you know. I mean, I'm not saying 76 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: it's it's not like Beasley. I think it's probably a 77 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: little bit better than what you get from Beasley down 78 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: the field. But he's going to do very similar things 79 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: to what Beasley does. Again, and the report I just 80 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: watched them table this morning watching play against New England, 81 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: and people like that. He does all the underneath stuff, 82 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: but where he's different is the run after the catch. 83 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: That's where you know, with Beasley, you get you get throw, 84 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: it's an eight yard catch and he's down. With this guy, 85 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: you get a catch, you get a move, another move, 86 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: and then you get a fourteen fifteen yard game with 87 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: the way he plays. So I think that's where the 88 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: big guy. I think Beasley is probably quicker than him. 89 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: For I think, though you talk about the physicality which 90 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: the player plays with out of the slot is going 91 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: to be different. And now with with Randall cop he's 92 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: a secure catcher of the football. You know, you put 93 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: it anywhere in that catch radius, he's going to make 94 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: a play. But the physicality in which he plays with 95 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: is going to be completely different than Cole Beasley. The 96 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: irony which to answer your question, he couldn't shake a 97 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: hamstring injury last year. It kept him out and as 98 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: somebody who had him on my fantasy team, I know, 99 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: like from a week to every were looking at everything, 100 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: like you know, I was like, well, Copple will be 101 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 1: back this week, and like that's Rogers guy, Like he's 102 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: gonna come through. Nope, he's an active again. Okay, Oh, 103 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: he's an active again. Okay. Cool. So I think he 104 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: missed six games, five in a row, something like that. 105 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: It was a big part of it. But you know, 106 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: twenty eight year old Pro bowlers aren't cheap if they're healthy, 107 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: Like that's that's part of it. Hopefully he can shake it. 108 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: I do. It's funny. The reason I said irony is 109 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: because the Cowboys have had so many problems with hamstrings, 110 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: and I don't think there's an injury that makes fans 111 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 1: matter faster than hamstring. Like you don't want to see 112 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: that on an injury report. So it's something to watch. 113 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 1: Hopefully he can shake it. But the year the year 114 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: before last year, twenty seventeen, without Rogers playing a significant 115 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: chunk of the season, he had sixty six catches for 116 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: six fifty three and four touchdowns, which is right up there, 117 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: if not better than basically all of Cole Beasley seasons. 118 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: You know what, I like what Brian is saying. You know, 119 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: let's let's don't act like he's gonna just go down 120 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: the field all the time I had vertical. But what 121 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: I do think is in this whole thing is it's 122 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 1: about Marie Cooper. Marie Cooper is your stud wide receiver. 123 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: He's your star. He can actually play all these positions 124 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: and when he does slide inside because that is the 125 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: most favorable matchup. You don't have to take Cobb off 126 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: the field like Beasley really needed to come off the field. 127 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: You can still do the things you need to do. 128 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: He won't be a strong suit, but it is something 129 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: that he can do. So so talk to me about 130 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: his comparison to Cole Beasley. Brian just kind of started 131 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: breaking out some of those comparisons. Is this a better 132 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: move for the Cowboys? Have they upgraded this position or 133 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,799 Speaker 1: do you think it's it's less than you had before? 134 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: And why? I think it's very similar to what you had. 135 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: I think it's you know, if you're trying to protect 136 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: yourself and say, okay, if we're going to lose something, 137 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: what are we losing? You know, we're losing this number 138 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: of catches. I think this guy is capable of making 139 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: those plays. I think where where this guy? Again? I 140 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: keep saying this this guy is different. Is he has 141 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: an idea that where the sticks are? You know, when 142 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: he catches the ball and it's a third and seven 143 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: and he catches a five yard pass, he's going to 144 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: run over somebody to get eight yards. He is going 145 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: to make sure that he's beyond the sticks. He's going 146 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: to make sure. He's actually a pretty good red zone 147 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: player too. Now, again, Cowboys don't use red zone receivers 148 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: very much since des Brian has walked out of here. 149 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: It's hand the ball off, you know, And so those 150 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: numbers kind of a little bit skewed. But you watch 151 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: Rogers and stuff throw him the football, I mean, he 152 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: knows how to get separation separation. Cole Beasley is very similar. 153 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: So I think that to me, it's it's all of 154 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: those things, say, oh yeah, they completely upgraded. Where they 155 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: upgraded is with a with a with a more physical 156 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: player when it comes to throwing him the football underneath 157 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: and then him getting north and south really quickly. I 158 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: think they completely upgraded, to be perfectly honest, and I 159 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: hate to throw dirt on a guy leaving town, like 160 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: I don't you know, I think Cole Beasley is a 161 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: really good player. I think he's an underrated player. And again, 162 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: Ranald Cobb's health is going to be a big part 163 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: of this. If he can't get on the field, it's 164 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: it's not gonna matter. But you're talking about a guy 165 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: who can play inside and outside. I know you know, 166 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: he's probably not going to spend a ton of time 167 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: just racing downfield because that's not Dax game. But he 168 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: can you go. Nick brought it up just now. He 169 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: catches a twelve yard in, breaks a tackle, houses at 170 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: seventy five yards and most of that is his work. 171 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley's not doing that. He never did that in 172 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: his career. UH twenty thirteen Hail Mary to beat the 173 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: Bears to make the playoffs, gets behind the defense and 174 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: catches a sixty five yard bomb to win the game. 175 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley did that once in his final regular season 176 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: game with the Calvins catch on a broken play. He 177 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: didn't catch any balls in the playoffs at all. No, 178 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: I was just talking about if you remember the Giants game. 179 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: I'm being I'm being what's I'm being a stickler because 180 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure he caught some balls in the playoffs. Sure, yeah, 181 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 1: that's that's not Cole Beasley's game. Randall Cop can do 182 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,719 Speaker 1: that again. He can move out. I'm fascinated by the 183 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: thought that Amari Cooper and Randall Cop can both move 184 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: inside and outside. They can both create separation within twelve yards, 185 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 1: they can both go downfield. It's gonna it's gonna hinge on. 186 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: I mean the downfield stuff gets covered with him. That's 187 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: that with Cope, the downfield stuff does get covered. I'm 188 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: sure it does. I mean he can. The separation for 189 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: Cobb is underneath. That's where the separation route running. He can. 190 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: When you watch him play, his ability to he has 191 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: the same ability as Cole Beasley is to spin receivers 192 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: or excuse me, to spin the corners, you know, to 193 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: his route right, it reminds me of like when you 194 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: watch Miles Austin Nick run routes or Derek when it's 195 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: all the same speed, it's not there's not any kind 196 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 1: of hesitation or wasted motion or stuff. But when you 197 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: I think, when you talk about extended speed down the field, 198 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: I'm not sitting there saying run him on nine routes 199 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: and run him on deep on digs and stuff like that. 200 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 1: I'm definitely not suggesting that I am. I am saying 201 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: I think, would you agree he poses a more realistic 202 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: threat fifteen and twenty and twenty five yards down the 203 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: field and colbs, Yeah, I'd say that in the fifteen 204 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: eighteen yard range absolutely, Because there's times when you watch 205 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: him down the field when Rogers would try and throw 206 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: him the ball, there's not the separation, right, the long 207 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: speed is not and that's but you watch cool Beach. 208 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: What's the problem with Cool Beasy. Cole Beasley was too short. 209 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 1: You couldn't see him down the field right now. This 210 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: guy's five ten, but he is a physically bigger player 211 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: when than what Cole Beasley is, I would say that's 212 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley is a quicker player than him. I will say, 213 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: you don't have any problem. He's a quicker player. But 214 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 1: but where this guy gets separation is his ability to 215 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: win off the line and then lean on a guy 216 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: and then get into the break. I think that's where 217 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna He's gonna do some good head thirteen touchdowns 218 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: with thirty yards or more and Beasley had two. Again, 219 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: I mean these are it's just easy to compare the two. 220 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: But I also think it's important to also remember that 221 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,719 Speaker 1: NFL teams are doing their homework. The Cowboys have done 222 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 1: their homework, the Bills, all these teams have done their homework. 223 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 1: There's a reason why Beasley's market value is higher, and 224 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 1: it was even higher for the Cowboys, who I believe 225 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: offered him a six million per year, constrobably all about 226 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,599 Speaker 1: the injuries, right right, So it's like on paper, you 227 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: can sit here and say he's more productive, he's he's 228 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 1: got more you know, touchdowns down the field, um, but 229 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: more catches, more yards, stats, Pro Bowls. But the market 230 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: value was hired for Beasley. Yeah, I think that's all 231 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: about the fact that you look at right now, the 232 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 1: players that we're going to talk about a little bit 233 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 1: throughout the show. They're players that the reason why the 234 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: Cowboys have interest and the reason why the Cowboys are 235 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: talking to them is because there's big upside and but 236 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: there's risk, and the risk typically is associated with injury, 237 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 1: and so it's either injury or age, and so it's 238 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 1: one of those things where of course his value is 239 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: higher because Cole has been a relatively healthy player for 240 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: most of his career. Randall Cobb has not been. But 241 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: the upside if you can get him on one of 242 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,079 Speaker 1: those healthy years can be significant. And that's why the 243 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys are willing to go here. I think this is 244 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: this is a higher upside than the guys that they 245 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 1: typically bring in, right in my opinion. I mean, Carrie 246 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: Hyder had an eight sack year don't. I don't think 247 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 1: even they're expecting that from him. You know, like he's 248 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 1: clearly a bridge signing, a guy that can come in 249 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 1: and play. Maybe you draft at that position. I think 250 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: Randall Cobb, if he's healthy, I think I think his 251 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: upside is far higher than most Cowboys free agents. Yep. 252 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: And the thing I love about this signing particularly is 253 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 1: because I think it gives you one more guy in 254 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,599 Speaker 1: this offense who can take at the distance. Because you 255 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: think about it, right now, you got Zeke, You've got 256 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: Maari Cooper, You've got Gallup who's become a bit of 257 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: a deep threat for them. Let's see if he continues 258 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: to develop in that way. But you look at all 259 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: those different options, you look at even a guy like Tavon, 260 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: if they figure out how to use him, he has 261 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: the ability with deep with speed to be able to 262 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: make big plays. The point is, there are a lot 263 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 1: of guys that will be on the field that defenses 264 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: have to be aware that whenever they catch the ball, 265 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 1: even if it's a short route, if the guy doesn't 266 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: make the tackle, they have the speed to be able 267 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: to get downfield and make a big play out of it. 268 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 1: That I think helps us offense. Yeah, this guy doesn't 269 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: have many poor passes thrown in this direction, but when 270 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: there are poor passes, you could see, I mean, the 271 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,599 Speaker 1: guy's got some concentration on that. Rogers, Rogers will we 272 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 1: all know Rogers. He'll throw the ball and he'll throw 273 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: the ball to guys and you're like, he has no 274 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: whoa oh, why they caught it? You know, I mean 275 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: he'll put it between two guys like Cobb was running 276 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: around against against the Bears, where he wasn't I don't 277 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: think he was even expecting the ball. And the next 278 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: thing you know, it's between the linebacker and the safety, 279 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,599 Speaker 1: and I mean Rogers just puts her and then and 280 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: Cobb just puts his hands up and it catches, and 281 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: you know, and he's now he's got, you know, thirteen 282 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: fourteen more yards. And so yeah, this guy is one 283 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 1: of those you're talking about something snatched the football. This 284 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: is what this quarterback here needs. He needs somebody though 285 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,079 Speaker 1: when it is a bad ball, when it is a 286 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: bad throw that you know, and we've seen Cole Beasley 287 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: take it off the back of his helmet before, So 288 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: you need to continue to add guys like that that 289 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: can help the quarterback. How does this affect Alan Hearns guy, 290 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: it's anybody, nobody. Alan Hearns can run for president here 291 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: and everybody would vote for him. I mean and the 292 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 1: great No, I mean every becomes him, hugs him and 293 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,839 Speaker 1: he's glad to see him, and he's like no. But 294 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: more so than being a great guy, he is beloved 295 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: by decision makers here. Yeah, that's important to remember. I 296 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 1: think that. I think the fact that Alan Hearns with 297 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: and they made the trade and it looked like the 298 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: receiver by committee thing was not gonna work. Alan Hearns 299 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 1: could have like pouted and you know, been pissed off, 300 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: and he might have been in private, but you know what, 301 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: he kept coming to work when they did throw him 302 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: the ball. He did make some plays. There was always 303 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: like a game where you have one or two catches 304 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,719 Speaker 1: and you're like, oh I had a touchdown, Oh he 305 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: had a twenty four yard catch. Oh okay. So I 306 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: think that's why everybody respects Alan Hearns. That when it 307 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: could have been really bad and he could have bitch, 308 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: moan and complaint, he didn't do any of that. I 309 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: think that's why people like him and respect him. Though. 310 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: I don't know how this affects him. And I know 311 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: people want to say, let him go save money kind 312 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: of a thing. I mean I don't there's if you 313 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: look at it purely black and white, Yeah, you could 314 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: cut him and say, what four million dollars six Yeah, 315 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: it looks like it looks like it would be a 316 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: five million dollars get the difference, which you could still 317 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: do that. You could, I mean, there's nothing stopping you 318 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: from doing that. But I don't think this means anything 319 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: right now. Again, it's a ninety man Rod. You get 320 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: into the offseason program, see how he's recovering. You could 321 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: even take him to training camp. Day's healthy, Like that's 322 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: another thing you absolutely. I mean, he's a guy that 323 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: can play inside and outside. Again, people might not want 324 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: to hear it, like they love his attitude and his 325 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: work ethic. He's much like Terrence Williams before him, Like 326 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: he's willing to do the boring, dirty stuff that coaches love. 327 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: And that means something whether or not you want him 328 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: here or not. So I wouldn't write him off at all. No, 329 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: I wouldn't write him off. But I'll say this, I 330 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: think that guys underneath hearns will be the one to 331 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: maybe push him out. And I say this because if, if, 332 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: if Austin is a part of this thing, which I 333 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: think he will be from maybe a punt return. If 334 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: Austin's a part of this, You've got Cobb, You've got Gallup, 335 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 1: you've got Cooper, You've got four wide receivers you know 336 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: aren't playing special teams for you. So you've got another 337 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: guy in there, Hearns, who doesn't do that. You know. 338 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: I think that if if you see development out of 339 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: Noah Brown, maybe Cedric will, and you know, we'll see 340 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: about Lenore. I don't know. I'm not expecting a lot 341 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 1: from him, but I still think that they draft someone 342 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: if they cookie, If they draft someone now, it becomes 343 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: really interesting, right, especially in the top five rounds or so. 344 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: So I just think that somebody might not Hearns out. 345 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: It won't necessarily be Cobb. It could be the development 346 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: of a younger, cheaper guy if they can play special 347 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: team pressure. If they were to use a remotely valuable 348 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: draft pick on a wide receiver, I think that changes 349 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: things for Hearns. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, all right, let's take 350 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: our first break. When we come back, I want to 351 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: talk about Robert Quinn, Eric Berry two other players that 352 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: were in the building yesterday. We'll talk about what the 353 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: prospects are and why the Cowboys maybe should or should 354 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: not sign these two players. When that when we come 355 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: right back. This is Dallas Cowboys dot Com. Radio.

Slash Football. 403 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: Back to the Break, Welcome back. It is the second 404 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: segment of The Break live from the SWBC Mortgage studios 405 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: at the Star. We're talking free agency. Cowboys getting active 406 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 1: here in the second week of free agency, made a 407 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: signing or agree to terms? I should say yesterday and 408 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: today we keep waiting to hear more on Robert Quinn, 409 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 1: Eric Bury. Let's start first with Robert Quinn. He visited yesterday. 410 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: He is still into contract with the Dolphins. So this 411 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: would require an actual trade where the Cowboys would have 412 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: to give up something we don't know what, but would 413 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 1: have to give up something in order to acquire his services, 414 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: and then presumably would have to talk to him about 415 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: the contract if they don't want to pay what he's 416 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: already being paid. Pretty unique scenario there. I mean, I'm 417 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: sure it's happened before, but it's not usual to, you know, 418 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: a guy under contract with another team making the rounds 419 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: looking for a new place to play. Yeah, because it's 420 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: not like whatever he whatever, he sees, whatever he likes, 421 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: he good relationship with the coach, not it really matters 422 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: if kids aren't looking. He could have been banging on 423 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 1: the table here yesterday, like get me here, and the 424 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys are like, eh, we're not paying what the Dolphins 425 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: are asking for, sorry, or we're not paying the contract 426 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: that yourself. So yeah, there's a lot. There's two factors 427 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: to it, right, absolutely. But also I think what some 428 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: of this is is and Marinelli was got a chance 429 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: to meet with them, and I know some of the 430 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: other coaches did as well. If you if you like him, 431 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: you like really what he can bring, you know, maybe 432 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,199 Speaker 1: this isn't a one year thing. Maybe it's like, all right, 433 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: well you trade for you and he's supposed to make 434 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 1: eleven million, and maybe you give him eleven million over 435 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: you know, up front, and then over maybe a two 436 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 1: to three year deal. I don't know. Yeah, smart thing 437 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 1: by Chris Career down there, the general manager from the Dolphins. 438 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: You know, he realizes that he's in a scheme change. 439 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: And if you look, the reason why that Quinn get 440 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: to the Dolphins was because of a scheme change and 441 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 1: in the rams. So he's just trying to facilitate, you know, 442 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,359 Speaker 1: getting rid of some salary, but also maybe getting a 443 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: pick out of this thing. So smart move on. When 444 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: you say schemes change, explain for the folks, Well, schemes change. Yeah. 445 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: You know, he went from for three under Jeff Fisher 446 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: and had great success and then all of a sudden, 447 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: way Phillips comes in. They try and make him a 448 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: stand up outside linebacker. You know, he's a wide nine 449 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: outside taching on the ground, hand on the ground and 450 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 1: go get I mean you can watch him play Tyrn 451 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: Smith and there's a trouble for Tyron Smith in a 452 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: lot of those games. So yeah, he goes to Dolphins. 453 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: You got Brian Flores is now the coach New England. Okay, 454 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: here we go. It's the same thing that happened with 455 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 1: Hyder in Detroit. All of a sudden, he's playing as 456 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: an under tackle and they get to a three four front. Okay, 457 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 1: he now playing a nose. It's not good anymore. So 458 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: they can you can move on from guys that way. 459 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: And so I feel like the team I was worried 460 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: about was the Saints. But I'm kind of getting a 461 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: buzz that the Saints really might not be interested, that 462 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: this might be just something that they look they're looking. 463 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 1: They're kid, Yeah, they're kicking the tires. So let's see 464 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: if that if that happens, but if you can work 465 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 1: a trade, I think this is a great move for 466 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys because I think it gives them a little 467 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: bit more leverage in the DeMarcus Lord's potential signing. If 468 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: you ask me, I think it's a great move for 469 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 1: a variety of reasons. You can go back multiple years, 470 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: like this is the type of stuff I've been begging 471 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: for the Cowboys to do. I don't want you to 472 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: give Earl Thomas fifty million dollars. I want you to 473 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: trade a twenty twenty pick and take on a little 474 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: bit of salary and of you know, at a former 475 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: first round pick, a veteran who like he had a 476 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: quote unquote bad year last year and still had six 477 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: and a half sacks, which would have been second on 478 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: this team. Yep, right, bring that guy in. It reminds 479 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: me of the Timmy Journagin trade. I bring that up 480 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: all the time. Eagles moved back in the third round. 481 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: You know, ten spots and get this badass defensive tackle 482 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: who goes lines up next to Fletcher Cox and makes 483 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: their defensive line that much better on a Super Bowl 484 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: run Like these are the types of moves that smart 485 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 1: aggressive teams doing free agency. You know, the salary makes 486 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: me curious because I wonder what they'd be willing to 487 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: pay him on top of giving up the pick. But 488 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: I think it's a great idea. I really hope they 489 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 1: pull that one off. I think especially and you say 490 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 1: it will give him leverage with Lawrence, I say it 491 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: gives him a right end if Randy Gregory can't play right. 492 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, I look at it, but I look at 493 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: it is this way if it becomes an impass at least, 494 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: you know you have somebody that can rush the passer, 495 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: whether it's Randy Gregor or not. Yeah, but wait, hold 496 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: on about Randy Gregory. I think it gives you a 497 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: right end period. I mean, and then we'll see what 498 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: happened with Gregory. I mean, I think he's a better 499 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: player than Gregory. Yeah. Well, that was actually my question. 500 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 1: And if you really what I want you, guys, is 501 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:42,639 Speaker 1: I want you to tell me kind of if you 502 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: had to rank those three players, where does Quinn fall 503 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: in relation to Tank and in relation to Randy Gregory? 504 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 1: Is he the best of them? Is he worse than 505 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: Tank but better than Lawrence? I mean, I'm sorry, better 506 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: than than Randy Gregory. Where does he fit in that 507 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: in that group? You know, it's interesting who's your most 508 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: important position? If you had to say, on the defensive line, Well, 509 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 1: in this defense, right end, right end, and they and 510 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: they play Lawrence at left end. Does that tell you something? 511 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: You know, we've been fighting about that for years because, like, 512 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: tell you something the whole. They don't think he could 513 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: play right end, the whole. They traded up thirteen spots 514 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: in the draft for him because they said he was 515 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: playing left on the board, he's playing left end. Yeah, 516 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 1: you don't think he could play right end. I don't 517 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 1: think he could play right end as well as he's 518 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 1: played left end. No, I really don't. I'd be curious 519 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: to see him try. I think I think I think 520 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: Robert Quinn. I think Robert Quinn is a bad you 521 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: know what, right end. I think that's you think he 522 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: would come in here and be the best defensive end 523 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: on the team. I think As far as pass rushing, absolutely, yes, Wow, 524 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 1: that's big. How much tape have you watched of him 525 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 1: to say that? I tell you no, I've watched enough 526 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 1: tape to know hit the way he plays, the style 527 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 1: he plays, so I've seen him play enough. When you 528 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: start talking about explosive this pass rush moves he does, 529 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,439 Speaker 1: thinks Lawrence is rare as a left end. We had 530 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: this discussion yesterday. Look at the left ends in pro 531 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 1: football that I mean, if you're a left end and 532 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: can rush the passer, you're rare. I'm not saying that 533 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: Lawrence is a poor Russia. I'm just saying he plays 534 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: left end. The left ends in this league that have 535 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: had had great success, Reggie White, Michael Strahan, Khalil Mack, Okay, 536 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: those are those Those are pretty damn good players because 537 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: they don't take that. No, that's what I'm saying. Yeah, 538 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. I hear you. But but you're 539 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: talking about they don't play him at right in. They've 540 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: had a chance to play him at right end and 541 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: they don't. That tells me something. Right there, you don't 542 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 1: think he could do it if they just moved him 543 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: over there, Like I basically refused to believe that he 544 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: wouldn't be good at it. Have they moved him Maybe 545 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: that's because they don't feel good about what that would 546 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 1: look like. That's what you have a guy that can 547 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: handle undertackle, undertackle, right and right in and undertackle, the 548 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: two most supportant positions. What position does he play? That's 549 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 1: what I'm just saying. He plays left, he plays left 550 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: him but do they have a guy that can play 551 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 1: left end if Lawrence isn't doing it? That's the now. 552 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: This is where if you get Quinn. You've seen Crawford 553 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: play in the suspension, during the suspension of Lawrence, you 554 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 1: saw Crawford play left in. What does your left in 555 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: have to be able to do? He has to be 556 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: able to play against the run. Right. That's where Lawrence 557 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: is rare. He could play the run, he could play 558 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: he could rush the pass. Yeah, yeah, that's basic. It's 559 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 1: more important to them for him to play the run 560 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,719 Speaker 1: it left in and rush the passer over there than 561 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: it is for him to play it right in exactly. 562 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: And that's he's too well rounded of a player, and 563 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: maybe it works against him. I bet if you ride 564 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: him up at right in and say go get the 565 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 1: quarterback and don't worry about anything else, I bet he'd 566 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: be pretty damn good at it. That's all I'm saying. 567 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,680 Speaker 1: He had more sacks, Yeah you do. I think he 568 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 1: could push for it. Yeah if his only responsibility was 569 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: rushing the pastor sure, I don't think. But you have 570 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: more sacks just because of the matchup going up against 571 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: the left tackle, that's true. Maybe I would like to 572 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: see it, Yeah, I would like to see it. But 573 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: what they have is working. I mean, really, you are 574 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: talking about an upgrade over over Randy Gregory or Taco 575 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 1: or you know, and I see that's what you have 576 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: to plug out the Tacco you have to figure out. Okay, 577 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: if in fact that you were to do something with Lawrence, 578 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: say you know this whole thing. I think it really 579 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: hinges on the agent here, I really do. I think 580 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: this whole deal hinges on the agent. And I hope 581 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: if it gets close enough that the agent's not stubborn 582 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 1: enough and then that Lawrence goes to the agent says, 583 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 1: we need to get this thing done. So let's I 584 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 1: don't want this thing. I don't want this thing to 585 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: like to fester, because you've got two things happening. You 586 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: have a coaching staff that's fighting for their lives right now, 587 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 1: and you're starting about talking about not having enough players 588 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: for them to, you know, to keep their jobs. And 589 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: then you got the players thinking what are our chances 590 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: without Lawrence? Let's speak plainly. So most people like common logic. 591 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 1: You look at any beat writer, me included, us included. 592 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: People are on Twitter saying, this isn't about DeMarcus Lawrence. 593 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,959 Speaker 1: This is about they don't have Randy Gregory. They need 594 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: help with their pass rush. They're picking fifty eight. This 595 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: is a great way to do that. You're saying that 596 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: this is a shot across the bow at DeMarcus Lawrence. 597 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 1: I think it's Will McClay, Stephen Jones, Jerry Jones. Look 598 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 1: at all the moves. Even you had a tweet yesterday 599 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: talking about well they filled this need, well, they filled 600 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: this need. Well, they filled this need. Yeah, it's all 601 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: about protecting yourself on the roster. That's what this is. 602 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: And if, in fact that they cannot come to an 603 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: agreement with Tank Lawrence, then okay, what's our next option? 604 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: What we've got to if we've got Robert Quinn, at 605 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: least we've got a pass rusher that Brian Broadus thinks 606 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: is pretty damn good. Whether that means anything or not. Yeah, 607 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: but you know, here's the deal. I actually agree with 608 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: you that I do think that this will give them leverage, 609 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,360 Speaker 1: and I think it's leverage that they probably will use, 610 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: knowing how aggressively they go when it goes to when 611 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: it comes to try to negotiate deals. They're very aggressive 612 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: in negotiating deals. So I think they'll use this leverage. 613 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 1: How I personally feel about it is though I would 614 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: actually look at it the opposite way if I were them, 615 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 1: And then what I mean by that is, if I 616 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: were able to get Robert Quinn, I would actually give 617 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: me more impetus to figure out how to get it 618 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: done with Lawrence, because now I have an opportunity, and 619 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: you don't get this opportunity very often. Yeah, I have 620 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: an opportunity to have two really, really outstanding defensive ends 621 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: that can rush the passer. That again, if if we're 622 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: talking to go back to why I wanted them to 623 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: go after Earl Thomas, is because I wanted them to 624 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: take the step from being a good defense to being 625 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 1: a great defense. You get two pass rushers. The quality 626 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: of these guys that can also push you to the 627 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: direction of becoming a great defense. Your your direction and 628 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: your desire to go that direction is great until you 629 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: meet the big roadblock in front of you, the agent, 630 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: until you, until you, until you So you have to 631 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: deal with the money. I can get it. You're you're 632 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: You're a team that can't just sit there and say, oh, 633 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: we've got one player, wait till next year. We're doing 634 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: this show. Oh can you believe they haven't signed any 635 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: of these seven guys yet? How are they gonna play 636 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 1: without Dak? How are the gonna play without Zeke? How 637 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: are they gonna play without Burne? Job? But you know 638 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: as much as I do, Brian, and this is something 639 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: that you can get it done. You can get it done. 640 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: You can do whatever you want to do. You just 641 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: gotta be willing to figure it out. But that's what 642 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Your willingness to figure it out might not 643 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: be the gentleman who's living lady that's living somewhere else. 644 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: And that's what I said. I said, I don't think 645 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 1: I think that they're going to negotiate this hard as 646 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: they always do. I think they're gonna use this as leverage. 647 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: If they can sign Robert Quinn, if they can trade 648 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: for Robert Quinn, I think they're gonna use his leverage. Personally, 649 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: my opinion, I would actually get the deal done with 650 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: Tank regardless because I think that gives me an opportunity 651 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 1: to have two outstanding past been done. I'm gonna ask 652 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: everybody here three months ago, yeah, two months ago, whatever, 653 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 1: whatever month, I don't think I would have even gotten 654 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: to free agency now. Of course, again I'm not writing 655 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: that check, and and there may be things that I 656 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: don't see about the salary cap that they do obviously, 657 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, the way I 658 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: look at it is this, this signing is about much 659 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: more than the amount of money and the player. It 660 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: is about the fact that you asked this guy, show me, 661 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: show me another year. If you asked this guy to 662 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: not only be a good player, but you ask him 663 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: be a good player, You ask him to be a leader, 664 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: You asked him to to to bring his teammates along. 665 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: And what did he do this year? No question. I 666 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: think that the success of that defense in large part 667 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: was due not just to his play, but his leadership 668 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: of all the other guys that were on that defense. 669 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: He did all the things you wanted him to do. 670 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: He checked all the boxes for me. I say, you 671 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 1: pay a guy like that. If you'd had a bad season, 672 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: they would have run to the table to offer him 673 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: a low ball. They would they would have rushed in 674 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: there to lowball. And he didn't have a bad season. 675 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: And now they don't want to deal with it. And 676 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: that's why don't they want to deal with David because 677 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: it's going to be really expensive. Yeah. And then here's 678 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: the part that here's the part that we don't know, 679 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: but they don't know. I don't know what the age 680 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: makes it frustrating is they decided to play this game 681 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: by franchising him. They were like, do it again and 682 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: you'll be in line for even more money. Well, he 683 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: did it. Again and he's in line for more money, 684 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: and now you have to pay him. But here's the part, 685 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: I don't know what the agent's asking. If the agent 686 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: is asking, we want to be the highest paid defensive 687 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: end in the NFL, then I see why the Cowboys 688 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 1: of you like, sorry, but I have say, like you 689 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: entered into that game. That's how this works. I get that. 690 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: But that also means that now you have to negotiate 691 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: it hard because you're not willing to make him. And 692 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 1: I don't think he should be the highest paid defense. 693 00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: I don't think he's the best defensive end in the 694 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: NFL though, so I don't think he should be paid 695 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 1: as the best defensive in the Cousins isn't close to 696 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: be in the best quarterback in the NFL. And that's 697 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: the market. That's a bad deal. That's a bad deal. 698 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: You don't what's a bad deal? For three year deal? 699 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: What's wrong with that? What's a bad deal because you're 700 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: paying it an amount of money that he's not do like, 701 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: he has not earned that amount of money. The market, 702 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: the market says that he said that, the team said 703 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: that he did. That doesn't say the market the Vikings 704 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: paid for the potential for him to be good. He didn't. 705 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: He doesn't have a winning record. He's never won a 706 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 1: playoff game. Like I think that the market was and 707 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: that's what you have to do. You have to pay 708 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: for what's going to happen. That's my point is like, 709 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 1: that's how this works. It might not be fair, but 710 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: it's like the one thing in this league that favors 711 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: the players, and that's just that's how it works. Will 712 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 1: only give him twenty million dollars, Yeah, that's what they're 713 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: telling you. I don't think they're telling you this is 714 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: going to be rushed into anything. I don't think this 715 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: is leverage for him or against him or anything like that, 716 00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: because I mean, at the end of the day, he's 717 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: got a twenty million dollars I mean franchise tag. Yeah, 718 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: but if he doesn't want to play on that franchise tag, 719 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: Let's assume for a second that he just decides, Okay, well, 720 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep holding out. He does a levy on Bell, Well, 721 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: if the Cowboys have Robert Quinn, now they're like, okay, 722 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: you can go and sit and we don't have to 723 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: pay you. He can sign. I think he'll still sign 724 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: the deal. And just play at twenty million. Yeah. The 725 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: thing about sign the deal and he'll get a surgery. 726 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. If he signs it. If he 727 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: signs the deal and doesn't play for you till October, 728 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: the end of October, that that's a bad situation. That's 729 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: you know, this is gonna sound really silly. I would 730 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: rather trade him than live through that. I would rather. 731 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: I would rather trade him. I would rather trade him 732 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: than live with him going into training camp not being 733 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: there every day. Uh yeah, Jason, Uh? Any word on 734 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: Laura's yet? No Nick? No word? Uh? Brian? Uh yeah, Brian, 735 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: any word on Laura, any signing, on any anything going on? 736 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: You know, have that information. Yeah, it's it's we can 737 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: only focus on the players that are here. If we 738 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: can only focus on the guys that are here, if 739 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: the choday, if the choices between trade him or you know, again, 740 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: I think we talked about this last week, Like you 741 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 1: get to training camp and he starts on pup and 742 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,360 Speaker 1: he's wearing a jersey and no pads and doing hamstring 743 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 1: conditioning for four weeks and then easing into it like 744 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: in September, and you know, October, we're playing the bills 745 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: he might be ready for like, no, get no way. 746 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: I don't want that. I don't want the headache. It's 747 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: not gonna make the team better. The relationship is gonna 748 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:30,320 Speaker 1: be bupkiss just no, thank you. And if he's not 749 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: a happy player, I don't know if I necessarily want 750 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: him in the locker room, if you can't find a 751 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: way affecting other young player, if you can't find a 752 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 1: way to get this deal done by the draft. But 753 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 1: you know it's funny. And again, here's the thing which 754 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: I think that Brian says. I think of that lunacy. 755 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: Just for the record, I think that's insane. What is 756 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 1: is he trading him? But I would rather just rip 757 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: that band aid off than draw this thing out. Yeah, yeah, 758 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna get a deal done. It's just 759 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,360 Speaker 1: amount of timing. And that's what bothers me about this 760 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 1: is I want the timing happen now. I want him. 761 00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 1: I want him in all of the mini camps and 762 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 1: OTAs leading that defensive unit. What I want. Where were 763 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:04,399 Speaker 1: you gonna say that I was gonna get you fired? 764 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 1: So no, I was gonna trying to get away from No, no, no, no, no, no, 765 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,800 Speaker 1: this is good, This is good radio. No, no, is 766 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: is he wrong? Is he wrong in his demands? What 767 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: depends on what he's asking for. If he's gonna be 768 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 1: high pay defensive end, then I think he is wrong 769 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 1: for them. Okay, do you think he's wrong? I don't 770 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 1: think he's the best defensive end. You don't think he's wrong. No, 771 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,800 Speaker 1: I don't think that's what he's asking for it. But 772 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know that really either. All 773 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 1: I've heard is one comment from the agent at the 774 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl, and it sounded like it was He's like, 775 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: what is this a big deal? I mean it's twenty million? 776 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 1: I mean why why? Why is this taken so long? 777 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: Is it start to at twenty million? So yeah, I 778 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: start talking million, like, that's what I'm saying there, that's 779 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: science start. You've already said. The Cowboys have already said, hey, 780 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: we'll give you twenty million. Once you once you said 781 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: we'll give you. Now it's now now where are we? 782 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: That means my counter offers gonna be twenty five. We'd 783 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: like to, we'd like to, we'd like to pay you. 784 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,319 Speaker 1: We'll give you twenty million, but we'd like to pay 785 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: you sixteen a year. It's you know, that's not going 786 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: to work for its contract was what seventeen a year? 787 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: Please don't look at that contract. Why no, no for them. 788 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 1: For them, they would love a Dford if they walked 789 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 1: in right now and said, we'll take Dford money. The 790 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:23,919 Speaker 1: cow was, Oh, well, here Ford isn't in the same stratosphere. 791 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying he's not even close. No, I know, I'm 792 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 1: saying that's that's that money. So he's way better more 793 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: than that. There's no question for these other contracts that 794 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 1: are going to be coming in. That's what they're waiting 795 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: on here, that these other that there's what there's three 796 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 1: other defensive ends that are clowney clowney, So you just 797 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: got you kind of want to want to see what 798 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:49,879 Speaker 1: the market looks like, right, yeah, right, Mickey's that's also 799 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 1: the interesting part about this defensive end, I think we 800 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: would all agree is probably one of the most important 801 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: positions in the NFL. And that's and the fact you 802 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: have such premium names sitting out there they haven't been 803 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: signed yet kind of suggests that there they need to 804 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: kind of wait to see what the market does a 805 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: little bit, right, But he's the best one I think 806 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 1: in that group and I think the Cowboys clown Is 807 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: he better than Clowney? Yeah, he's more reliable than Clowney. 808 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 1: I think be Clowney had some issues earlier last year 809 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 1: or two. I thought he played a ton of games. 810 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 1: He's playing opposite what's been the guy that hasn't been. 811 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 1: So he's also who's playing right in. He's got an 812 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: all pro playing frost line from him. I'll pull this 813 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 1: up for you, Okay. Well, while while he's pulling it up, 814 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: I did have one of the questions for you on 815 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 1: on Robert Quinn. Let's assume, for second, Cowboys are interested, 816 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 1: Dolphins are interested. How much you willing to give? What 817 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:45,879 Speaker 1: kind of pick are you willing to give in order 818 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: to acquire? If I don't have another team involved, and 819 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: it's gonna take me a twenty twenty pick, with the 820 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 1: thought of maybe I don't know the compensatory fate of 821 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: this team yet of what they've lost, we'll see. But 822 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 1: if I was thinking you're gonna if you went twenty 823 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,320 Speaker 1: two one, you could probably go a four. If you 824 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 1: do a four this year, knowing you have too that 825 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 1: that might be if you had another team that was 826 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 1: competing against you say, if the Saints who like to 827 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 1: mess with you, that coach messages with you, he does 828 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,280 Speaker 1: her Cowny hasn't missed very many games. He's been pretty reliable. 829 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 1: Lest couple still think Tank is better. Maybe so, I 830 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: just I think they're I think they're comparable. I don't 831 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 1: think one place than I write it. Yeah that this place. 832 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: They rose from the right side scheme they put a 833 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,759 Speaker 1: two time, they put a two time defensive player of 834 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,360 Speaker 1: the year, or run that left side scheme. Nonsense, go away, 835 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: But no, you know the whole thing with I think 836 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 1: that you have to think about if you don't, if 837 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: you don't get into they they took a four for 838 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: their quarterback. Do you start at the four because you 839 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: have two? Or do you or Everything the Dolphins have 840 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,359 Speaker 1: done since they hired their new coach suggests that they're 841 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:59,240 Speaker 1: going full freaking They're going full Brooklyn nets like Tanka 842 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 1: Paloza there does kind of feel like that doesn't What 843 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 1: does that team have right now? They are garbage? Sorry 844 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,720 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins. No, I mean they're doing it on player 845 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 1: you might want. They're trying to build it from the 846 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 1: studs up. Yeah, they're trying to get right. If you're 847 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: doing that, maybe they have to get good value. My 848 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 1: point is, I'm trying to give a twenty twenty pick 849 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: because that's when that's what you're doing. I'm not trying 850 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: to give picks that I'm using in three weeks. If 851 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: you don't get these offense could have a twenty twenty 852 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 1: pick if they just hang on to him. Depend Yeah, 853 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: depending and they get a compensatory pick, but it'd be 854 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:35,799 Speaker 1: for Also, then they're stuck paying his salary to play 855 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: in a scheme that he doesn't fit in for a year, 856 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 1: and that'll decrease. That decreases his value. Yeah, i'd give him, 857 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,839 Speaker 1: I'd give him a fourth, but I'd rather give him 858 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 1: a fifth. But yeah, i'd started five for fourth gets 859 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 1: it done if nobody else is in. If nobody else 860 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 1: is in, let's go five. Yeah, I'd start with five 861 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 1: and then go to the fourth and and think I 862 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: might get a compensatory next year four one of my guys. 863 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you're gonna have all these you know? Yeah, No, 864 00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 1: they are, I mean somebody. Yeah, when they tank, they'll 865 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:02,800 Speaker 1: get a whole bunch of stuff for him, So it'd 866 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 1: be cool. But I mean I would, I would I 867 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: would give him a third if I got their fourth 868 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: something like that. Yeah. Are always those are the fund 869 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,880 Speaker 1: trades where it's like, well we got a third, but 870 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: we gave up a fourth. Yeah, I mean because they're 871 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 1: they're picking Layton the third, Copley with Layton third, that 872 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 1: Dolphins would be higher in the fourth. I would do that. 873 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, since you brought it up 874 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 1: real quick? Would you would you take if someone gave 875 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 1: you two picks for Tank that like that Indie trade 876 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 1: that we did on the would you yeah, would you 877 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: pick the players that at say Indie trade twenty six 878 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 1: fifty eight fifty nine? Would you pick the players or 879 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: would you try and move that thing up? I think 880 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 1: I'd rather just have three players. Sounds like this is 881 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 1: a pretty deep draft on what I've heard. You guys 882 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 1: would know more about that. It sounds like a pretty 883 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 1: deep draft. So I can maybe I keep the picks 884 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 1: and you think we could get twenty six and thirty 885 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: four out of the Colts, Boy, I tell you what 886 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: that'd be both. Yeah. See they hold they hold Tank 887 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: for a top five pass rusher, Yeah, working for a 888 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,959 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator that knows him really well on a team 889 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 1: that's you know, got that went pretty deep in the playoffs. 890 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 1: Would you do that in a heartbeat? I love Lawrence, 891 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: I absolutely love Lawrence. Any would it would hurt your team. 892 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: But I'm trying like hell to get Quinn to help myself, 893 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 1: to protect myself, which goes back Derek made and I 894 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:14,440 Speaker 1: agree with Derek, which you know that's rare for you 895 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:17,399 Speaker 1: and me. I know, let's say, wow, if you add 896 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 1: Quinn to this team and sign Lawrence, you have taken 897 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 1: a definitive step. No, there's no question toward winning a 898 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 1: super Bowl, which is the goal, right, that is a goal. 899 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: If you get rid of Lawrence, even if you get 900 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,320 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of picks for him, don't try to 901 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 1: sell me that you're going for the super Bowl. You're 902 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:35,320 Speaker 1: gone another too problem. I get to July and the 903 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 1: guy hadn't soldier surgery. It's o Nober, and I'm not 904 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,359 Speaker 1: gonna get anything for him next year. I know. I'm 905 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:43,479 Speaker 1: just saying, don't try to sell me that the super 906 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 1: Bowl is the goal. If you get rid of that guy, Well, 907 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:47,399 Speaker 1: don't try and sell me we sign our own either.

He 976 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 1: is the final of the three that we're talking about today. 977 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: Pretty eventful show to excuse me. He visited Earl Thomas 978 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 1: coming in and being the third segment, pretty like. Yeah, 979 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: they visited the Texas Guy to be first segment, the first, second, 980 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 1: and third segment, Brian. They visited with an all pro 981 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: at the position that everyone and that follows the Cowboys 982 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 1: has been desperately trying to address for three years, and 983 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 1: then we're saving it for the third segment. Yeah. Well 984 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 1: there's a reason why because and I'll ask you guys 985 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 1: this question. If you if you look at Eric Eric 986 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 1: Berry and where he is in his career, I would say, 987 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 1: of all the of the guys we've talked about the day, 988 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 1: he's the guy I'm least excited about bringing in. I 989 00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 1: would be more excited about Cobbin and Quinn than I 990 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,879 Speaker 1: would be about Eric Barry. But you guys feel read 991 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:00,800 Speaker 1: him well. I don't know about it. I don't know 992 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:03,719 Speaker 1: how good he would be, but I think as far 993 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 1: as the likelihood to get him, I think he's you know, 994 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 1: he's lower than Quinn just because you're talking about a trade. 995 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I think this is Eric Berry, what he's 996 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,280 Speaker 1: gone through in his life and everything that that's happened 997 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,839 Speaker 1: to this point. This is his last chance to really 998 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:20,719 Speaker 1: get big money, and I think he's gonna go for that. 999 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 1: And I don't know if the Cowboys could be that. 1000 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 1: But is anybody going to be willing to pay? Maybe 1001 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,839 Speaker 1: I don't know if they will actually But and then 1002 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 1: it comes down to a good fit, good need, and 1003 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,000 Speaker 1: I think that And I was thinking about this with 1004 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 1: Quinn as well. I think if you look at the 1005 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense, if I'm a defensive player and I have 1006 00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:37,759 Speaker 1: the option to come here, I think the Cowboys would 1007 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,720 Speaker 1: rank right up there with any of the other teams 1008 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: as far as this team is good enough to go win. 1009 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're a defensive end or a safety, 1010 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:48,279 Speaker 1: you've got two badass linebackers there in between, you've got 1011 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl corner, you've got a Pro Bowl defensive end, 1012 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 1: maybe another one in Quinn. I mean, it would be 1013 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,040 Speaker 1: attractive to come here for this team. Can I ask 1014 00:46:57,120 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 1: you a question? Though you hate my scheme questions? Does 1015 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 1: he fit? They don't. They don't like what he can do? Yeah, 1016 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 1: go ahead, no go no, it's yeah. I like it's 1017 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:10,359 Speaker 1: a good voice. Appreciate that. Does he fit? I think 1018 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 1: he fits? I mean, if you think of if you 1019 00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 1: think of where you have with Xavier Woods, wherever he plays, 1020 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:19,959 Speaker 1: wherever he I disagree. I think put him in the box, 1021 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 1: that's fine. What can he do at this point in 1022 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 1: his career. I know he can tackle. I know he 1023 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 1: can tackle, and that's what I want my box safety 1024 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,920 Speaker 1: to do. Anyway, he's probably better Jeff Heath, right, yes, 1025 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 1: better than Yeah, better Jeff Heath better, Jeff Heath, pro 1026 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:35,360 Speaker 1: Bowl pedigree, all pro caliber work ethic. Put him in 1027 00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 1: a locker room with Xavier Woods and all these other 1028 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:39,919 Speaker 1: twenty three year old defense at that time, he's shown 1029 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 1: some passion for some players, and you're getting talking to you. 1030 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 1: Pisses me off. You're getting to You're getting to you 1031 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:48,440 Speaker 1: every week. I like kissed off two really great Pro 1032 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: Bowl caliber players in one signing because you because you 1033 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:56,279 Speaker 1: would get Eric Berry at safety, and you would get 1034 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 1: Jeff Heath at special teams. And Jeff Heath, if he 1035 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 1: played just special teams, would be a Pro Bowler. Not 1036 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,640 Speaker 1: only well that that's that's smart. Jeff Heath at third 1037 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 1: safety too, because we know they like to do that. 1038 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 1: That's that is the role that he was meant for. 1039 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 1: I want him on this team. I don't want him 1040 00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 1: starting safety Gardner Johnson from Miami. I don't want to 1041 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:17,239 Speaker 1: spend my second round pick on that guy. Well, if 1042 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 1: they have Eric Berry. But okay, let me ask you 1043 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:20,879 Speaker 1: this question, though, does it not that's good for you guys? 1044 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:23,240 Speaker 1: He's only played three games in two years. It's terrifying. 1045 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:26,839 Speaker 1: It is terrifying. He's and he played in three games 1046 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 1: in two years. He didn't make it through one point. Yeah, No, 1047 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 1: I mean you now have you would now have two 1048 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,480 Speaker 1: players that you worry about during the games, which, to 1049 00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 1: answer your question, is the shot and leave of safeties. 1050 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:41,200 Speaker 1: That's what you keep saying, Bobby Belt. It's a good line, 1051 00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,880 Speaker 1: but I rank him second behind Quinn. No disrespect to 1052 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,359 Speaker 1: Randall Cobb. Like I think you know that's high praise 1053 00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:49,880 Speaker 1: because you said it in the first segment. You say that, 1054 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 1: you said that you thought the signing of Randall Cobb 1055 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,120 Speaker 1: was a really great sign. It is. But if you're getting, 1056 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,799 Speaker 1: even if you're getting a healthy Eric Berry, even if 1057 00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 1: he's like three steps slower than he used to be, 1058 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,880 Speaker 1: I think it's an upgrade. I think everything I know 1059 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:04,920 Speaker 1: about the guy, I've never met him, but everything I've 1060 00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 1: ever heard is that he would be a hugely positive 1061 00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:10,480 Speaker 1: influence in the same vein as a Shan Lee, a 1062 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,839 Speaker 1: guy who would take these young dudes under his wing. 1063 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: And again, if he's healthy, play at a great level, 1064 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:17,840 Speaker 1: maybe not at all pro level, but better than what 1065 00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 1: we've seen from that position. I think it would be huge. 1066 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 1: And the only reason I wouldn't do it is cost 1067 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 1: and I just I have a hard time of leaving 1068 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 1: a guy that's only made it through two games in 1069 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 1: the last two years, who's thirty, and you know, yeah, 1070 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 1: but what about what do we we were kind of thinking, 1071 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:34,840 Speaker 1: we were hoping for We were hoping for Earl Thomas. 1072 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,239 Speaker 1: Remember I was going one more day, one more day, 1073 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:39,440 Speaker 1: and the next thing, you know, they just blow you 1074 00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 1: away in and we were talking about, well, can earls 1075 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:44,319 Speaker 1: stay healthy? Kenny? You know, I don't think that's clue. 1076 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:46,040 Speaker 1: You don't think you don't think people are you do 1077 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 1: you think people are thinking about this guy as not 1078 00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 1: being healthy at all? Right? I mean when you are 1079 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 1: play three games in two years. Yeah, that that scares 1080 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:55,839 Speaker 1: the heck out of him. You're talking, what Earl broke 1081 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,120 Speaker 1: a bone? That's a freak, Like we're talking about a 1082 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:02,399 Speaker 1: heel problem about legally? Yeah, and I don't know whoa 1083 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 1: whoa wait a minute. Now, you guys have gone from 1084 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 1: the top of the mountain to like jumping off the cliff. No, 1085 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 1: you have. Everybody's like all excited about it, and now 1086 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 1: you're killing my vibe. You're excited about it? My right? Nick? 1087 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,440 Speaker 1: Why did he missed two years ago? He tore his 1088 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 1: achilles in the third quarter of the first game of 1089 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:21,799 Speaker 1: the year. Yeah, and then last year, last year's gonna 1090 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:25,239 Speaker 1: have a very severe bone spur that. I don't know 1091 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,560 Speaker 1: if it was related to the achilles, but it's like 1092 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,960 Speaker 1: a it's got its own name. I don't remember what 1093 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 1: it is, but it's like a bone spur that digs 1094 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 1: into your achilles and supposedly it hurts. Like it's called 1095 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 1: that sounds like, yeah, bitch, yeah, well yeah, I mean 1096 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,319 Speaker 1: it sounds like he played in the playoffs. Yeah, so sure, 1097 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:46,239 Speaker 1: I would assume. But you guys, you guys had me go. Well, 1098 00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:48,239 Speaker 1: but he had me going. And now Allison, we're like, 1099 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 1: you're in the second wave of free agency. You're not 1100 00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 1: getting I'm you're not getting players I'm in. I'm saying that. 1101 00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,040 Speaker 1: I think I'm trying to temper my expectations a little 1102 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:03,480 Speaker 1: bit because this is the classic example of huge upside. 1103 00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 1: But there's a lot of risk involved, right, and if 1104 00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:08,279 Speaker 1: you guys only played three games in two years, there's 1105 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 1: a ton of risk. But there you can get the 1106 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,279 Speaker 1: money to work. There's no risk involved if it's at 1107 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 1: the right price, right. If you get the money to work, 1108 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:16,279 Speaker 1: you mitigate the risk and then all you're doing is 1109 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:19,239 Speaker 1: looking at potential upside. So from that standpoint, I think 1110 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:22,200 Speaker 1: if they can get the right deal right, one year deal, 1111 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,759 Speaker 1: then this could work. This will work really really well. 1112 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,759 Speaker 1: You guys are going all one year deal, I would do, 1113 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:31,799 Speaker 1: what would you do? I would do a three year deal. 1114 00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 1: Oh I'm scared of that. Okay, would you get doing 1115 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 1: one year? I asked? I asked for me. I'm front 1116 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:38,719 Speaker 1: loading a lot of it Earl Thomas, but I don't 1117 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 1: know what. I haven't money. Earl Thomas got in. No, No, 1118 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:45,360 Speaker 1: two years, eleven million guaranteed up. Yeah, I could do 1119 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:47,600 Speaker 1: something like in the middle. But all I'm saying is 1120 00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:50,200 Speaker 1: this guy's doing great. Even we saw it was Sue 1121 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 1: felo a Field had one good start against Fletcher Cox, 1122 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 1: and we're like, well, was just see one year deal, 1123 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,879 Speaker 1: He'll be back. Give me a break. Okay, I'm sorry, 1124 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 1: but no, no, I love I love to feel like 1125 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 1: I was the one Dolion. I was like one year, 1126 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:06,839 Speaker 1: that's a that's a different thing. But I'm just saying 1127 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:08,560 Speaker 1: that nobody blows up. You don't want to have to 1128 00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:10,640 Speaker 1: do this again. No, but for two years, that's no, 1129 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,279 Speaker 1: that's I hear what you're saying. But if one year 1130 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 1: deal gets it done, that's fine because you can get 1131 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:16,920 Speaker 1: a compic for him. If he blows up, you can 1132 00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 1: draft a guy this year that can step in. One 1133 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:21,520 Speaker 1: year deal's fine, and not only I'd rather do it too. 1134 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:23,279 Speaker 1: But if you do it too, that's not very much 1135 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 1: money and he blows up, you're still gonna have to 1136 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 1: be back at the negotia take one, because he's gonna 1137 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:28,800 Speaker 1: be like, I deserve more money. Do not have to 1138 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,640 Speaker 1: fight anyone else? Though maybe maybe not. Maybe it becomes 1139 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:34,799 Speaker 1: very messy and it ends up in the situation where 1140 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 1: you got it. Brian is saying, you got it. You 1141 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: gotta go ahead and just trade him, Just go and trade. 1142 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 1: If the Texans, if the Texans got Honey Badger for 1143 00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:44,520 Speaker 1: seven million last year, I just can't imagine it would 1144 00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 1: cost a ton more to sign Eric Bearer. I just 1145 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:47,879 Speaker 1: think you get him on a one year and let's 1146 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 1: just see, it's a prove it kind of deal. I 1147 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:51,680 Speaker 1: would pay him. I might be willing even pay him 1148 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 1: eleven million. Yea, I might even pay him like that 1149 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 1: seven million for a year, right, I would give him 1150 00:52:56,560 --> 00:53:01,239 Speaker 1: more money year one year deal. You better you better 1151 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:05,279 Speaker 1: get d Law signed because that five for Cobb, what 1152 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 1: eight for Berry or something like that? Eleven for Quinn 1153 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 1: if that happens, I'm just saying, but that all goes O. 1154 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 1: Look next year you can't play around with one year 1155 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:17,880 Speaker 1: deals though they're one year they go in. I mean 1156 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:20,160 Speaker 1: they love the one year deals. Yeah, I don't. At 1157 00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,480 Speaker 1: the same point, you've got to get the twenty million 1158 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:25,239 Speaker 1: dollars one year deal. You got to work on that. 1159 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:26,719 Speaker 1: I got it, But I guess the way I look 1160 00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:28,440 Speaker 1: at it in one year deals, I'm okay with the 1161 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:33,919 Speaker 1: one years because I'm saying now after this year, when 1162 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 1: contracts you have to do. That's kind of how you 1163 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:39,719 Speaker 1: play this game is you look for those kind of 1164 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:42,160 Speaker 1: bargain deals and guess what they're gonna be. More people 1165 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,839 Speaker 1: like that are in the same situation as Robert Quinn, 1166 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 1: same situation as Eric Berry next year. That if you 1167 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 1: want to go out and do one year deals with 1168 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:51,399 Speaker 1: those kind of guys, go do them. It happens every 1169 00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 1: year that they are veterans who, like like Dave said, earlier, 1170 00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:56,719 Speaker 1: had that bad year and now they're available on the cheap. 1171 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:58,720 Speaker 1: So that's how you play that game. In my opinion, 1172 00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 1: I get it. But why, But how much are you 1173 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:04,600 Speaker 1: talking about with with Eric Barry eight, Let's just say 1174 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 1: that's the I don't even know that's the and that's 1175 00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:09,840 Speaker 1: he left here. I Garrett you know, this is the 1176 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:11,919 Speaker 1: first time he's ever been a free agent. He's gonna 1177 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 1: look around and it all. I mean, it's the same 1178 00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:15,719 Speaker 1: thing as the draft. All it takes is somebody to 1179 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,800 Speaker 1: be like, yeah, i'll give you twenty million dollars's to 1180 00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,600 Speaker 1: say nine the Ravens swoop. You know, did you see 1181 00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 1: the other offer that Earl. Earl Thomas was weighing, a 1182 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:26,759 Speaker 1: one year, twelve million dollars offer from the Chief was 1183 00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:28,880 Speaker 1: about and was about ready to sign it, and the 1184 00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:30,920 Speaker 1: Ravens were like, well, we'll give you fifty. Yeah, so 1185 00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:34,399 Speaker 1: who the hell knows twelve? I think I think Earl 1186 00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:37,200 Speaker 1: didn't want to say anything nice about the Cowboys. That's fine. 1187 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 1: It's probably a little bit no, not happy. Yeah, that's 1188 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:43,359 Speaker 1: probably where he wanted to He probably going to work out. Yeah, 1189 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: he's gonna say Kansas City was in the picture, Yeah, 1190 00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 1: when maybe Dallas might have been the pick. He just 1191 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:51,319 Speaker 1: doesn't want to mention Dallas by either way. He knows 1192 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:54,320 Speaker 1: he got in trouble by mentioning Dallas the first running 1193 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 1: over here, and he owned his money substantially at the 1194 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 1: eleventh hour. That's my only It always takes one to 1195 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:01,600 Speaker 1: hear might have been pissed off the day before that game, 1196 00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:04,279 Speaker 1: and then whoever they were playing, he would have chased 1197 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,319 Speaker 1: down that coach and be like, come get me when 1198 00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:09,359 Speaker 1: they kicked me. All right, let's let's quickly. I want 1199 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:10,880 Speaker 1: to take one call before the show's up. We have 1200 00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:14,040 Speaker 1: a call from Brian and Iowa. Brian, what up? Hey? 1201 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:17,680 Speaker 1: What's up? Guys? Hey? Hey, do good? Um? I have 1202 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:22,760 Speaker 1: a couple of questions. Uh, a couple of my Iahawkeye players, 1203 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 1: t J Hodginson and no fan. If it's possible if 1204 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 1: Dallas would want to trade up to get one with 1205 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 1: Tens and then um, if Dex still Lawrence had a 1206 00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:39,560 Speaker 1: chance to fallen into Cowboy's lap, what would you guys 1207 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:44,040 Speaker 1: think he would look like alongside Woods and Lawrence and 1208 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:49,919 Speaker 1: possibly Quinn and in that line, thank you nice little 1209 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:54,439 Speaker 1: draft show questions That was tomorrow on the show. Both 1210 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,439 Speaker 1: those tight ends go in the first round. I would 1211 00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:59,440 Speaker 1: give a finger to have either of those tight ends 1212 00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:02,400 Speaker 1: on this team. Yeah, but they've got a knife. The cost, 1213 00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 1: The cost is large if you trade the defensive end. Yeah, hey, hey, 1214 00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 1: you want to trade full circle? Right, you're a trade 1215 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 1: all number ninety And now we're taught now you're at 1216 00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:14,319 Speaker 1: twenty six and you have fifty eight and fifty nine 1217 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,400 Speaker 1: and you can go up to fifteen and get Hockinson. 1218 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 1: Let's go. There's no way they're going to use a 1219 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:21,760 Speaker 1: high pick on a one technique. Lawrence is from Clemson. 1220 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:24,279 Speaker 1: What if he said fall in their laps? Though, you 1221 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,160 Speaker 1: think they'd use fifty eight on him. Not that he'll 1222 00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:28,799 Speaker 1: fall that far, but I don't know. I mean, if 1223 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 1: if they had to, I think that you'd have to. 1224 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna go okay if he falls in 1225 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,480 Speaker 1: your lap. Yes, consideration, I personally think they're gonna take 1226 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,680 Speaker 1: that Boston cost. You've you've made yourself well. My guy 1227 00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 1: was on even if the show, would you see that? 1228 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:43,759 Speaker 1: What's up? Even if they go get Robert Quinn, you 1229 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,759 Speaker 1: still they think they would go in in the Yeah. 1230 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 1: I think I think it's gonna be about depth. And 1231 00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:50,879 Speaker 1: I mean you were talking one year deals and stuff 1232 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 1: and all that. I still think they need. They feel 1233 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,839 Speaker 1: like they need defensive ends, defensive ends in safety. Yeah, 1234 00:56:56,080 --> 00:56:59,800 Speaker 1: that's okay, Yeah, fight it out. Tristan Hill. Jonathan Abram 1235 00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:04,400 Speaker 1: was on NFL Network.

Yeah, and he's gonna be available fifty eight. 1243 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 1: Let's say he's that good.
