1
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 1: This. He's hanging with the talking Cowboys brains. They block

2
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,640
Speaker 1: it up beautifully, fade right side of the end. Jason

3
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,480
Speaker 1: Witten over the shoulder. That's a goat catch. I think

4
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: that was a one hander, Brad touchdown. Jason Witton the goat.

5
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 1: Whoa yo yo. That is not just a memory lane anymore.

6
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: That's not a thing of the past, guys, It's a

7
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: thing of the future and of now. Welcome to the

8
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 1: Emergency Podcast. Lindsay Draper and Nick Eatman Derek Eagleton reacting

9
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: to Jason Witton coming out of retirement. I have to

10
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: admit my first question was as a coach or as

11
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 1: a player. Guys. You guys were upstairs, I was downstairs.

12
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: What was your reaction? April fools? First thought was what

13
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: month is this? Wait a second, and were getting punked here?

14
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: Like what? And then I really, you know, I was like, Wow,

15
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: I like it. I like the movie. I mean, I

16
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: like it. I mean because and this is a good

17
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 1: young football team that made the playoffs and is going

18
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 1: to enter the season with some issues at tight end.

19
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: And you know what, and he and I think that,

20
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,119
Speaker 1: like he said in his statement, you know, he's still

21
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 1: the fire, still burning there, and you know, he's got

22
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: to get those secrets. They're still in the dirt. Let's

23
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: go get them. So, you know, I didn't think it

24
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: was completely shocking. I mean, I was obviously as everybody

25
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 1: as you're shocked at the initial news of it. But

26
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: then when I thought about it, I was like, you know,

27
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 1: and I'll take you back to the playoffs in January.

28
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: I was talking to Taylor one day and we were

29
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: just kind of talking about the team, and one thing

30
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: I mentioned to her was, I wonder right now, And

31
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: this was in January, like first round of playoffs. I said,

32
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: I wonder right now if Jason Witten is having any

33
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: second thoughts is he looking at this team? Because it's

34
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 1: my personal opinion. I don't know, He's never said this

35
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: to me or anybody I've heard of. My belief is

36
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: that part of the reason that he walked away is

37
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: because he didn't necessarily see that this was a team

38
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: that was right there on the custom of a championship.

39
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: And it made me think, is he rethinking that? Thinking? Man,

40
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: what I've seen from this team over the last eight

41
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: weeks of the season, when they went from three and

42
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: five to where they are now, what I'm seeing is

43
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: that this team is really good. This team has some

44
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: great potential, and I could actually feel a void for them,

45
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,119
Speaker 1: that maybe the void that could push him over the top.

46
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: I wonder if he was having that kind of conversation

47
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 1: with himself back in January, and so it made me

48
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: when I heard this news. It made me think maybe

49
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: he was having that conversation with himself, and maybe he

50
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: looked at it now like I see this team as

51
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: a rising team. If I jump back in, I can

52
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: feel a void. And by the way, maybe that's enough

53
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: for me to be able to get that at ever

54
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: elusive ring or get get deep in the playoffs. He

55
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: has not been able to do that ironing with that

56
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 1: if that is true, and I don't know why it

57
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: wouldn't be. Of all that stuff that you just said,

58
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: there's so much ironing because I have sat there with

59
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: Witton on two occasions where he has been really visibly

60
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: upset about situations sort of like that. One of them

61
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,959
Speaker 1: was Cole Beasley who decided to quit raining camp and

62
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: go back home because this wasn't for him. But then

63
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: he came back and after a weekend and he was like,

64
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: you know what I changed in my mind. I'm sorry.

65
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: I had a little relapse there, and Jason Witten wasn't

66
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: about it. He was like, no, I'm not No, you

67
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 1: can't just quit on us and come back. And so

68
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 1: he had to apologize to Witten. And there was a

69
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: tight end way back in the day, Scott sicko same thing.

70
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: Didn't think he wanted to play, then he kind of did,

71
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: and Witten play. If you don't think you want to play,

72
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: then you're out. And so it's kind of weird that

73
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: it comes back around like that. If that's what happened,

74
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: there's more to it. I mean, there's obviously more to

75
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: it there. I mean a lot of people have already

76
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 1: asked me and he hasn't gone around too too quickly,

77
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: and they're like, was he gonna get fired by the ESPN?

78
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: Was did he get And I don't think that's the case,

79
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: because I don't think you decided to go play football

80
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: if your sixteenth year, if you needed a job. He

81
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: didn't need. You know, he still had a job. It's

82
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: not like he took that, you know. I just think

83
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: that he still wanted to play. I think you're it's

84
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: more what you were saying about still wanting to play football.

85
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: Hopefully we are going to hear from our friends up

86
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: at the combine. Ran brought us Rob Phillips, David Hellman.

87
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: They are scrambling now like that. Yeah, they're like they

88
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: are on the hunt right now, looking to see if

89
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: there is a Jones or a Garrett there. But we

90
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: went here from you, guys. Garrett eighty eight eight by

91
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: by two two ninety seven is the number. But the

92
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: phone lines will always be freed up for our pals

93
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: on Dallas Cowboys dot Com. Uh, realistic expectations, guys. I

94
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 1: want to just get right into it and not even

95
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: beat around the bush because I've I've seen a lot

96
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 1: of tweets come out and say, well, you know, tight

97
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: ends no longer a priority in the draft, and I personally,

98
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: you know, disagree with that because I think sitting a

99
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: year off thirty seven years old, Um, you gotta be

100
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 1: realistic with yourself about his contributions. He is one of

101
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: the greatest Cowboys of all time. But we got to

102
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,919
Speaker 1: be real here. I agree with you. I just don't

103
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: think you have to go get a tight end if

104
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: he happens and you're in the third, fourth round and

105
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: you know this guy's rated high. Then, yeah, you look

106
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: at you look at Witten in his age and all that,

107
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: but you do think that you know, Schultz and jar

108
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: two young players that you know their time is coming

109
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: as well. Now we've seen in the past what young

110
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: tight ends behind Whitten don't always work. I think maybe

111
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 1: things are going to change some there. And another thing

112
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 1: at his press at his press conference for the Jason

113
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: Witten College Player of the Year, he was long ago,

114
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: eight weeks ago up here asked about he was asked

115
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: about Kellen Moore and he kind of, you know, and

116
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: talked a little bit about how he thinks Kellen's going

117
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: to really help Dak and do things now that Dak

118
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: is really able to do. Kind of made it sound

119
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: like Lenahan wasn't doing that. It just hasn't really high

120
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: praise for Kellen Moore. And maybe that's part of it too.

121
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 1: Maybe this offense is actually something he thinks is a

122
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: little bit more suited for him. Yeah. I know someone

123
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: that talked him off the record, and he was very

124
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: very he had a lot of praise for Kellen Moore

125
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: and what he thought Kellen Moore could do with this offense. Again,

126
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 1: maybe that has something to do with this decision that

127
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 1: And that's not a knock necessarily on Lenahan as much.

128
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: It is just I think he as a belief that

129
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore has the ability to really take this offense

130
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 1: to another level and he can see himself maybe in

131
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,239
Speaker 1: that role and that that may be something that excites

132
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 1: him a little bit. And that coupled with Nick, I

133
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,119
Speaker 1: want to rewind to something you said earlier to pull

134
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: him back. I mean, we could talk a full podcast

135
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: alone on what it's going to take to be in shape,

136
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: to get ready, to get your body right. But what

137
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: you said that this team actually could be a contender

138
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: that could lure him back, coupled with I mean, Jason

139
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: Witton's been around Kellen Moore. This is a couple of

140
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: things we don't know, you know that that he might

141
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 1: bring to the table. So that kind of makes this

142
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: Kitten don't forget Kitt Kitna have been teammates, like he

143
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: knows these guys. Well, I'm just going to read the

144
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: quote if we didn't already have seen it already, But

145
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: the quote says exactly that, and I'm I'm actually surprised

146
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: a little bit about it that he that he says

147
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: the fire and side of me to compete and play

148
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: this game is just burning too strong. This team has

149
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: a great group of rising young stars, and I want

150
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: to help them make a run at a championship. This

151
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: was completely my decision. I'm very comfortable with it. I'm

152
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 1: looking forward to getting back in the dirt, but just

153
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,039
Speaker 1: but just admitting that, Yeah, this team has a chance

154
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: to win and I want to be a part of it. Oh,

155
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: I'm glad. I'm glad. You know he went out and

156
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: said that, because that's kind of what you were alluding

157
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 1: to as well. I don't think it had anything really

158
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: to do with what was going on in Monday night football.

159
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to jump into the booth for

160
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: your first broadcasting gig and be the He had some moments.

161
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: He wasn't polished. He's not Romo. They did him no

162
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: favorite He's not Romo. They did him no favors. I

163
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 1: think and all of us can probably recognize this because

164
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: we work in media. But it is a difficult thing.

165
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: As we're about to do this in just a moment,

166
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: but it is a difficult thing to do a broadcast

167
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: with someone that you cannot see. Yeah, and for his

168
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 1: first time in the booth, first time doing media. Really

169
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: they asked him to do a game where one of

170
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: the people that was a part of their threesome was

171
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: actually on the field and they could not see him

172
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 1: to be able to take nonverbal cues of when you're

173
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 1: gonna talk, when you want to talk, when you want

174
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: to stop, how you want to enhance something that they're saying,

175
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: or they want to enhance something that you're saying. Like

176
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: they did him no favors trying these things with a

177
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: relatively freshman group of guys working together in that capacity.

178
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 1: So I don't think ESPN did him any favors. I

179
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: think that is a poor to me, that is a

180
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: poor reflection of what you could expect from when if

181
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: he decides to do that in the future. I think

182
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: that was a learning year, and they put him on

183
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: the big stage and gave him a lot of unexpected things.

184
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: It's a very experimental group right in that kind of environment.

185
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: I just think ultimately, I think if he wants to

186
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: go back into that, I think another network or ESPN

187
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: will do it in a much more control type of

188
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: environment to let him kind of get more used to it,

189
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: rather than just storing him out there. I don't think

190
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: they did. The next headset or earpiece he will put

191
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: in will be as a coach. Anyways, I hear we

192
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,559
Speaker 1: have Brian broad Us on the line from ins BB.

193
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 1: Just talk to us, man. What do you got, Well,

194
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 1: we kind of located were the head coaches. Yeah, we

195
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: we actually got to visit Dave and I real quickly

196
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: grabbed Kellen Moore and we're over here at the Marriott

197
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 1: across the street from the Jaw Marriott, So wherever h

198
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: at the Marriott and we're staking out trying to get

199
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,959
Speaker 1: to Jason Garrett to give us a little idea. This

200
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 1: was something that obviously just didn't happen today, I don't think, so,

201
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 1: you know, we had opportunities with kind of visit with people.

202
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, we're over here kind of hanging out, waiting

203
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: hopefully we'll get something from a coach Garrett about about

204
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: the situation. But kind of one of those traditional things

205
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: that happens to us at Dallas Cowboys dot Com. We

206
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: were all having lunch when this all went down, So

207
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 1: how it goes the street continues for us, Brian. The

208
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: other than that, other than maybe you know the salad

209
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: that you were eating got cut into that a little bit.

210
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: But you love this, don't you. You love going to

211
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: steak out and try to find them. Yeah, no, this

212
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: is a lot of fun actually, because you know, we

213
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: I've got all these connections with the teams, as we

214
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,200
Speaker 1: all do. So I was kind of kind of like

215
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: it was like playing the game of Clue. You know,

216
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: I was, I was in the laboratory and I was looking,

217
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: and then I had to go to the ballroom and

218
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: then I had to go you know, I guess I'm

219
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: too old for the game of Clue. But yeah, yeah, yeah, candlestick. Yeah,

220
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 1: you know this is plumb all that stuff, you know,

221
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: Professor Plumb. There are you gonna hit Dave with the candlestick?

222
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: I should, but but no, we're you know, it's yeah,

223
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: we eliminated the stadium, We eliminated the team hotel, we

224
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 1: eliminated you know, we and finally, like I say, running

225
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: into Kellen Moore, Kellen said, hey, I've got to I've

226
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: got to go meet with coach. So we've we've got

227
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: him cornered up here. But yeah, this is you know,

228
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 1: this is something that you know, we uh, we're kind

229
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,719
Speaker 1: of all here and you know, we were trying to

230
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: grab Steven Jones. When we've learned Stephen Jones is not here,

231
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: he's back in Dallas, will be back here tonight with

232
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: with Jerry, So again, hopefully we can have the opportunity.

233
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: But yeah, this was one of those things that you know,

234
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: I know that was not being talked about here. Uh.

235
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: You know, even the people that I know at ESPN

236
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, I think that they were a

237
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: little bit surprised about this all went down. And so, uh,

238
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: you know, we'll see, uh, you know, we'll see if

239
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: we can kind of get to get to the bottom

240
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,559
Speaker 1: of some of these things. But you know, for the Cowboys,

241
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: they like to talk about how now the youngest team,

242
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: the youngest team, the youngest team. Well, you know, they've

243
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: added some age to this team now. And to be

244
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 1: quite honest with you, I'm really am surprised that they

245
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: didn't make this move. Really, uh what do you think

246
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 1: it does for the chemistry? And it really and kind

247
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: of expand on that, why why are you kind of

248
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: surprised by that? I'm surprised because you know, it's to me,

249
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: it's you know, well, let's be honest, though, you know,

250
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 1: we've kind of during the season that was talking about

251
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: him coming back, and Oben Rodgers from one U five

252
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: three was you know, went out on that limb and

253
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 1: you know, and took a lot of criticism for it.

254
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 1: And I know everybody we've had contacts with Witten and

255
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 1: stuff like that, but you know, we kind of heard

256
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 1: the whispers that maybe things weren't going as well as

257
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: they need to be. And I heard you guys before

258
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 1: I came on talking about, you know, it was a

259
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: difficult situation, and you know, I totally agree on that,

260
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 1: you know, and you know, Witten is, you know, one

261
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: of these guys. I felt like though when he hung

262
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: it up, you know, he was going to hang it up.

263
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: I didn't feel like that there was going to be

264
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: any you know going back. You know, and usually players

265
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: know when they need to move on. And you know,

266
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,839
Speaker 1: it's very surprising that, you know that he took the

267
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: year off and then now is coming back. And so

268
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: you know, I think when you look at this draft, uh,

269
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 1: you know, I feel like that. You know, we pack

270
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 1: on the Draft show last night, we were talking about, Okay,

271
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: how do you find a way to trade back into

272
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: the first round and grab one of these first round

273
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: tight ends? Would you would you consider trading for one

274
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 1: of these first round tight ends. So you know, I

275
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 1: think this team was making plans to to go that direction.

276
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: So again, it's a little surprising to me that they would,

277
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 1: you know what, they would entertain this. Uh you know, now,

278
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: well they entertained it, I guess earlier or later in

279
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: the year. But now we've full blown got it, you know,

280
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: full circle here, so that you know, that's a it's

281
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 1: a team that you know, it felt like I's always

282
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: tried to get you know, get younger and and uh,

283
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: you know, add talent that way. Just a little bit

284
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: surprising to me they went this route. Well, Brian, knowing

285
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: that it's a it's a guy that's an aging player.

286
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: Sure do you think that in your opinion, do you

287
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 1: think it's still the wise and prudent thing for the

288
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,319
Speaker 1: Cowboys to do to still consider tight end as a

289
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: priority during this draft? Well, yeah, I think you know,

290
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: you have to look at it, especially if it's a

291
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: one year deal. But you know, maybe this is the

292
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: bridge that they needed to get, you know, another year

293
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: with Schultz and another year with Jarwin. You know, usually

294
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: you could take veteran players. I mean, we were thinking

295
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: about you know, Sean Lee. With Sean Lee the kind

296
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: of the bridge to get the other guys ready, you know,

297
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: and these young kids just came in and played from

298
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: the word go, and you know, really, Sean Lee is

299
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 1: there was kind of an afterthought there for a while.

300
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, I just feel like though it's I think,

301
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: if it's any other player than Jason Witten, and maybe

302
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: this doesn't work this way, but you know again, I

303
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,079
Speaker 1: I just I thought that they were going to say, okay,

304
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: let's just go with the young tight ends. You know,

305
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: let's draft a young tight end and then you know

306
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: that way you have you know, Jarwin young tight end, Shultz,

307
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 1: you know, and then kind of go that round because

308
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: this again, this this this draft one of the really

309
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: you know, we could have two three tight ends taken

310
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,959
Speaker 1: in the first round, you know, with the with depending

311
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: on how this thing falls. So uh and then the

312
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: depth of the position is actually pretty good. Now does

313
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: that preclude them from taking Derek the question you ask?

314
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: You know, I would hope not considering this is just

315
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: a one year deal. Okay, you when you're talking about

316
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: the tight ends, and Brian knows this better than anyone,

317
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: you talking about tight ends three projected guys in the

318
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: first round. You know that that's a position that I

319
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: could that sometimes those guys could slide, you know. Uh

320
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 1: and and you know they're maybe sitting there at maybe

321
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: not fifty nine, but sitting there in the fifties or

322
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: with a chance to trade up and go man, yeah, yeah,

323
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: that's where you know, you got the extra compensatory four

324
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: and so okay, how do you take you know, fifty

325
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 1: eight at four and moved, you know, get up. You know,

326
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 1: we were talking about can you get into the forties

327
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: to get one of these guys? And you know that's

328
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: probably what you're gonna have to do now. You know,

329
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: I would guys, I would hope that this wouldn't take

330
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 1: them out of the tight end market. You know, we

331
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: talk about you know it's hard to say, not hard

332
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 1: to say, but it's difficult to say. You know, would

333
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: Jason Witten be a progress stopper? You know, would he

334
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: be you know, would he prevent you from getting a

335
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: tight end? And you would hope not, You really really

336
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: would hope not. But you know, we need to see

337
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 1: where Jason Witten's role is going to be with this team.

338
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: You know, he's excited about coming back. You know, Nick,

339
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 1: you just read the quote, but you know where is okay?

340
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: Is Jason Witton going to play eighty percent of the snaps? Again?

341
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: Is he gonna play seventy five percent of the snaps?

342
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: You know what number of the snaps is he going

343
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: to play? And then you know that's where I think

344
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: you kind of have to look at things and say, Okay,

345
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: is the level of how many snaps are you going

346
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: to play? You know, really really worth it for this team? Brian,

347
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: will you call us back if you track anybody down? Yeah,

348
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: we will. We're hanging out. It's it's so much fun

349

Speaker 1: have Scott in Jersey on the line. What is up, Scott?

416
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 1: you working good today? I'm actually just I'm just out

417
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: of work. Walking across town. I heard the great news.

418
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 1: I immediately turned to radio on. I knew there would

419
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: be some kind of live broadcast from here. You people,

420
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: you know what I want to know. I mean, I

421
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 1: don't know right off about why we carry so many

422
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 1: tight ends. So Jason Witten, which is great news, comes

423
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 1: back and he is a full time starter. I think

424
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: we've opened up a couple of spots on the roster.

425
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 1: We don't need that many tight ends. Obviously, keep Schultz,

426
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: you're not looking in the draft. I don't feel you

427
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: need one when's not coming back for one year. And

428
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: I think Witten back to three years, two solid years,

429
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 1: so that opens up spots on the roster area. Have

430
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 1: you talked to Witten's body? Um, I think that sounds

431
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 1: I think you know, I think it sounds sounds great.

432
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: It sounds great. But you know, as as we all know,

433
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: sometimes our bodies don't are exactly you know, a line,

434
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 1: the line with with what you your mindset is, and

435
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 1: so I don't I don't know if you have to do.

436
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: You don't have to draft to tight end. But I

437
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 1: think if if if one, like I said, if one

438
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: falls to you, that's fine. Um, I don't think no,

439
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,719
Speaker 1: no start. I do think he starts I think he starts,

440
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: but you also have two young tight ends that that

441
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: you want to develop as well. So tight end, to me,

442
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: is not a huge need because you have a starter

443
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: and you have two good young backups or solid young backups.

444
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 1: I don't think Rico's gonna be in the mix anymore

445
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: because I think that experiment is over and I don't

446
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 1: think Swam returns in free agency. So I agree with you.

447
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 1: I do think a spot opens up, but mainly a

448
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 1: spot opens up because because you were holding on to

449
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 1: Rico as this experiment guy to see what he can do,

450
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: and I just don't think it's gonna work out here.

451
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,479
Speaker 1: I do think he'll sign with another team, yeaheah, Well

452
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,880
Speaker 1: somebody be a full wouldn't to sign that guy. He's good, Well,

453
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: we don't have room on the roster's out problem. He's

454
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: not good for this offense, and I don't know if

455
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,479
Speaker 1: that's a good thing or not. I just don't think

456
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 1: he's a good fit. He's gonna go. Think about this,

457
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates would have never survived in Dallas for fifteen

458
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 1: years if he had to block as much as Witten.

459
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 1: That's not his style. But there are offenses that will

460
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 1: have Rico, you know, maybe a Kansas City or somebody

461
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 1: that has a little bit more wide open style, and

462
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 1: I bet you he goes there and he does well.

463
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 1: I just don't think it would have worked here this

464
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 1: type of offense. Yeah, thanks, you think we get traded

465
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: for a number our first round picks, but we could

466
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 1: jump back into first round. Bye bye, Scott. It was

467
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: a great chat with you first round. But you know,

468
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 1: I didn't think that I thought his called his call

469
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: actually did though, dovetailed nicely into something we were talking

470
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: about in the break. When you start talking about what

471
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 1: Whitten's role is going to be, whether he's a starter

472
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: or whether he's not. One of the points that I

473
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: was making to you guys was I think that for

474
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,680
Speaker 1: for Witten, if you look at how he has been

475
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: as a as a starting tight end for this team

476
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: and how that's what that's meant for other tight ends

477
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: that they've brought in over the years. Typically he's not

478
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 1: the one that's necessarily bringing those guys along and making

479
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: it better for them to ultimately take his job like

480
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: he is not coming off the field like he is.

481
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: He wants to be on the field every play, and

482
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,639
Speaker 1: I think in this move. I think Witten's going to

483
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 1: have to come back with a little bit of a

484
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 1: different role and a different attitude here, because you don't

485
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: want him to come back and be your starter every

486
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 1: down tight end because if he's doing that, you're not

487
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: developing Schultz, you're not developing Blake Jarwin. I think he

488
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: has to come back more in a player coach kind

489
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: of role, not and I say that really loosely. I'm

490
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,640
Speaker 1: not saying he's a coach, but I'm saying he's gonna

491
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 1: have to come back. In my opinion, he should come

492
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 1: back in a role of I'm not only going to

493
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 1: add something for you at the tight end position, I'm

494
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: also going to be helping bring these young guys along

495
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: because I'm not going to be here long term. I'm

496
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: here for a short period of time. Also in the

497
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,400
Speaker 1: also in the break, Nick brought up, you know, red

498
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: zone troubles were a problem this year. I wonder if

499
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: that was discussed up front. Hey, you you know, maybe

500
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: not gonna start every play and everyone's gonna be behind you,

501
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: but we do how they need here and you can

502
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: feel that. Yeah, And I think that was a big problem.

503
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 1: I do think that that Witten's absence hurt the team

504
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: in the red zone. I think I was reading a

505
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: tweet that somebody had said, you know, this is this

506
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: is good. But I don't ever remember missing him last year.

507
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: But I think Witten helped in the red zone and

508
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,959
Speaker 1: ways even when he didn't have the ball. You need

509
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: a threat back there. You need a guy that can

510
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 1: get open, that can find a way to kind of

511
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 1: you know, post up and box out like a basketball

512
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 1: player and make a make a catch and and and

513
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,200
Speaker 1: I think just the threat of him um will open

514
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 1: up some things, or at least it did, you know

515
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: when he was here. He's gonna have to prove that

516
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 1: he is still a threat, but I think he'll do that.

517
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: And so I think his presence alone can help this

518
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: team in the red zone. And you know, if Frederick

519
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: comes back to be the Frederick that you you know,

520
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 1: hope that he can be, then then that certainly will

521
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: be a help in the red zone as well. All right, guys,

522
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 1: we have another caller on the line, Kyle from Philly.

523
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: I believe, am I right? Kyle? Yes? Indeed, how's it

524
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: going great? What are your thoughts? Well, I'm excited to

525
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: have Witting with the mitten's back. Um, I think he'll

526
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: definitely play a good role you know, for you know

527
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: that like how brought us was saying that, you know,

528
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: that good bridge you know for these young young tight ends. Um.

529
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 1: I still I still would love to get a free

530
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,920
Speaker 1: agent tight end, somebody a little younger, if not, you know,

531
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 1: if we don't draft one. Um, but I definitely think

532
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 1: our our premium pick should be like headed towards like

533
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: the D line and defensive end. Um. And yeah, I

534
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: mean I just you know, I mean I am pretty excited.

535
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: You know, it'll definitely help us on you know those

536
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 1: third down uh situations and stuff like that. But I

537
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: would love to get a younger athletic tight end. Um

538
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,439
Speaker 1: just because it seems like he slowed down a little bit,

539
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: you know, his final year, um, even though he was

540
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: still productive. Uh, you know, but just to have that

541
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,719
Speaker 1: young athletic tight end, you know, that's that's pretty good

542
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 1: to have. I mean, I know we have you know,

543
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 1: we got jar Win and you know those guys, but um,

544
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,880
Speaker 1: but yeah, just somebody, you know, just maybe a younger

545
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: veteran as well. You know, I really you know, the

546
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 1: way I think we should go. But you know, I

547
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: mean I am excited. Awesome, Thanks Kyle. I want to

548
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: ask you guys something. Um gosh, my mind is all

549
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 1: over the place getting text from Dave Hellman. Dave, call

550
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: us when you have something. Please, I know you're up

551
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: there scouting. Otherwise, stop bothering us, Stop distracting David. Okay.

552
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 1: My question just reflecting and reading some of these tweets,

553
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: not only about Jason Witton, but about Randy Gregory when

554
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: it comes to the draft. In my opinion, I don't

555
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 1: think a roster move should change a draft need all

556
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 1: of a sudden, Oh, Randy's suspended. We should be looking

557
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 1: at this. Oh, Jason Witton's back, so we don't need

558
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: to worry about this. I mean that this your draft.

559
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: I mean this is a long time. This isn't a

560
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:32,679
Speaker 1: one year filler type of discussion. So really, how much

561
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 1: is it going to change? Well, I think that there's

562
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 1: different ways to look at it. I think it kind

563
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: of does change a little bit. It just changes your

564
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: sense of urgency a little bit. It doesn't necessarily change

565
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: the need because if you've got a guy that can,

566
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 1: that can you screams off the edge and he can

567
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,199
Speaker 1: get to the quarterback he's needed. It doesn't matter if

568
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,959
Speaker 1: you're sitting there with von Miller and d law I mean,

569
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: I think you would still take him. But uh, and

570
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 1: those guys typically aren't there at number fifty eight. But

571
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: you never know. I just think that it's the combination

572
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: of Randy or don't know what's happening with him, the

573
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 1: combination of Taco hasn't done anything. And Dorin's armstrong. You know,

574
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 1: he's okay for the first year. So yeah, I mean,

575
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 1: who's gonna play there? And I think I think that

576
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,399
Speaker 1: that need it changes a lot because he was a

577
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: young player. Gregory's a young pass rushing defensive end who

578
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 1: led was second on the team in sacks and pressures

579
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 1: last year. Now he's not here. But if the Cowboys

580
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 1: were like, we don't ever have any issues with Gregory,

581
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: he has totally turned the corner. He is fine. If

582
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 1: they ever had that in their minds and then they

583
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: all needed to be you know, let go right, that's

584
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: my point. They's better not have ever done that. I

585
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: honestly don't think personally, I don't think that anything about

586
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: that announcement should have changed plans for the Cowboys, because

587
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 1: if the Cowboys had gotten into a false sense of security,

588
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 1: because again, this is not and this is not about

589
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 1: as we've heard before, this is not just about as

590
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,679
Speaker 1: dude can't stop smoking weed, like, there are other issues

591
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 1: at play here, and this, as the Cowboys have described it,

592
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: this is a long term, probably a lifelong battle for him,

593
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 1: not the battle of weed, but the battle of his

594
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 1: overall mental health. Right. And so if you don't allow

595
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 1: for the fact that he's going to have moments where

596
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: maybe things aren't what they should be, like he's gonna

597
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: have moments where maybe he relapse, he's gonna have moments

598
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 1: where maybe he doesn't do something that he should be

599
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 1: doing right, because this is a lifelong thing for him,

600
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 1: then then the Cowboys aren't really living by what they're saying,

601
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: even publicly. Right. So I don't think anything about that

602
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 1: announcement necessarily says to me that the Cowboys should change

603
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: their plans. If they were going to look for a

604
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 1: defensive end, then they should continue to look for a

605
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 1: defensive end. If they felt like we love what we

606
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: saw from Doran's Armstrong, and we love what we saw

607
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 1: from Taco, and we think Randy's going to be a

608
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 1: part of that, then I think they continue with that

609
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: same plan, and maybe if they feel like they're gonna

610
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 1: get to a point where they're gonna need a body,

611
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 1: then they bring in another body. But I think that

612
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: this doesn't change a lot, at least in my mind,

613
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't change a lot about what I was thinking

614
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: about the defensive end position. One more caller, guys, Mike

615
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: in Canada is on the line. Mike, what are your

616
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: thoughts today? Oh man, I'm so happy. Nice to talk

617
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: to you, Lindsay you do a great job on cover four.

618
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: Thank you the season this year. But I think we

619
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: made a step and uh, I think Witten is I'm

620
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: just so glad to have him back. I think he's

621
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: really really going to help us in the red zone.

622
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: Nobody gets opened in the red zone in the end

623
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: zone better than he does. Yeah, I agree with you there,

624
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 1: and um, you know, I just think it's gonna we're

625
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 1: gonna have to see what he does as far as

626
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: his development with the younger guys, and you know, he

627
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 1: knows usn't really coming off the field before I do.

628
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 1: I just think he's going to have a different mindset.

629
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: I just believe it. You know how it is when

630
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: you're when you're supposed to run the meeting, but then

631
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 1: you you come in fifteen minutes late. It's just a

632
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: different mindset. You have to be different. I just don't

633
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: think you come in and that's a good point and

634
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 1: do everything the way the way you were supposed to do.

635
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: I mean this, you left. I I love Witten, but

636
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: he he wanted to do something else. It turns out

637
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: he wasn't ready to leave. But when you come back,

638
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's different. And that also goes to the

639
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 1: leadership part of this. I loved I loved the way

640
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: that Zeke and Dak stepped up in that leadership vacuum

641
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: last year and became the leaders of this offense. I

642
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: think Witt needs to come in and he's got to

643
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 1: defer to those guys a little bit, which is different

644
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 1: because when he was here before, they deferred to him.

645
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 1: I think he needs to defer to them a little

646
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: bit because they are now the leaders, and they are

647
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: the unquestioned leaders of that offense and this team. And I, oh, hey,

648
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: lie still there. Sorry, No, I was just listening to

649
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 1: your commentary there. But yeah, Nick, I agree with you.

650
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: Coming back a great book. By the way, the Friday

651
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: Saturday and Sunday I read it. Thank you. I appreciate that.

652
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: Thank you. And getting back to Wit, Yeah, he's gonna

653
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: have to take a reduced role. I agree with that.

654
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: I think that it probably to get them the best

655
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 1: use out of him, use them in the critical situations

656
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 1: where you need to convert on third down and in

657
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 1: the red zone, etc. And let the other guys develop.

658
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: Thanks so much, Mike. You know, you know who else

659
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: really stepped up in a leadership role last year? And

660
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: this could have been because of Frederick as well, but

661
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: I thought Zack Martin was a completely different guy, especially

662
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: in the locker room, much more vocal. Wasn't leaning on

663
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 1: Zach to talk you know, I probably help. I mean,

664
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: I'm sorry Frederick to talk to all the time, you know,

665
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: the help that they had different lockers. Now speaking of lockers, um,

666
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 1: you know they got an issue. Well, you know, it's

667
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 1: not like this has been We've been here for twenty years.

668
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:35,239
Speaker 1: I mean it's just relatively new. But but Garrett likes

669
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: to have the leaders in the corners spot to the

670
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 1: locker room, and Wit and Ill had that spot for

671
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 1: a couple of years and then Zach Martin replaced them. Um,

672
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: but I think this is the least of their issues

673
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 1: of figuring out you know what and somebody else was

674
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: thrown around on Twitter. He's gonna wear a different numbers,

675
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: wearing eighty two eighty two, that's the number he's gone.

676
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, I'm sorry they even have to say that. Yeah,

677
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: because Michael Jordan's more forty five eighty two. He's gonna

678
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: be eighty two. It's gonna be eighty two, he's gonna

679
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: be It's open. All right, guys, we thank you for

680
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 1: tuning in. What is the go ahead? I was just

681
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 1: gonna say real quick, in case people haven't been following Twitter,

682
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: it's on fire right now. Really interesting stuff from DeMarcus

683
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 1: square Martella spin it as well, like yeah, their tweets count.

684
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 1: What did Marcus say? DeMarcus, I haven't seen it's actually

685
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: a video, so I haven't seen it all. But people

686
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: are responding like, oh yeah, come on back. My assumption

687
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 1: is he's like, hey, maybe should we uh should we

688
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: kind of make this a defensive end thing too. That's

689
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 1: what Martella said, right. Martella is definitely said he let's

690
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: bring the gang back together. But it's fun, it's it's

691
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: part of Twitter. That's the thing I love about the

692
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: kind of moments because everybody gets to chime in on

693
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 1: you know where that leads to. Because I've seen this

694
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 1: about one hundred times now. We already got a quarterback.

695
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 1: We're good, we got we got a quarterback. Okay, we

696
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 1: got a quarterback. Yes, I agree, don't argue with me.

697
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: I'm just saying we've been arguing about this. We got

698
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 1: in too, I mean, DeMarcus Lawns and I mean, but

699
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 1: you can use to say we just used to having

700
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: a conversation about another one that might not be around
