Yeah, 10 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: Thursday Night football is invaded. Well, it's always been in 11 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: the high school ranks. Of course.

Texan's playing pretty well 14 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: right now. They are straight four in a row. That's right. 15 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: Did they have a roof? They have a roof in 16 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: southlike they do have an indoor practice facility that the 17 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: Cowboys used to practice it. Yes, just like just like 18 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: ninety percent of the other high schools indoor Texas, they 19 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: have indoor practice facilities. Rob, how are you doing I'm 20 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: doing great, doing great. Got one practice left, sort of 21 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: a long weekend coming up for this team, so you know, 22 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: it's much needed, I think. But we got to see 23 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: the new guy yesterday. That was that was interesting, And 24 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: let's dive into that. You saw the new guy on 25 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: the practice field inside Ford Center here, what y'all make 26 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: of what you're seeing out there? Physically look good? Yeah? 27 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't think he you know, I know 28 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: there were some questions about him being overweighted and stuff 29 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: like that. I didn't look like to me that he 30 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: is that at all. You know, I didn't see a 31 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: sluggish looking player. And he'd had some a little bit 32 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: some prom with some ankles and the concussion thing and 33 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: all that. But I think just watching him go out 34 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: there and throw it around a little bit was was 35 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: a good site for everybody. Look good in his nineteen jersey, Yeah, 36 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: fit nice and tight slam Yeah, no problems here, were 37 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: wearing number nineteen, Keyshawn Johnson, Miles Austin. Yeah, okay, I'm 38 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 1: just just happened to have yeah, exactly. Okay. You got 39 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: Bryce Butler, Miles Austin, Keishawan Johnson with Lance Ransel and 40 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 1: Lance Awards about that, both Lance Ransell and Bambi both 41 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: war number nineteen, not at the same time. All right, 42 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: there were there was a punter who wore number nineteen, 43 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: Danny Villa went away, John Jett, oh, John Jett, and 44 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: two quarterbacks wore number nineteen, one of them famous in 45 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: redskin Lord Cowboy, Red Longley and Kevin Sweeney. Kevin Sweeney 46 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: during the strike day, well, and he was after after that. 47 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 1: He plays, He stuck around. Now he got he got 48 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: the stick. He got stick. He actually got to start 49 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: a game because Tex wanted to see him. So everybody 50 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: that says Jerry says, oh, I gotta see this guy 51 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: out there. Tech was insistent that they see what Kevin 52 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: Sweeney can do because they were trawled with him in 53 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: the strike games. Right, you know what, I'm insistent on 54 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: seeing what Amari Cooper can do. This current number nineteen. 55 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 1: He went out there real quickly and threw like three 56 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: interceptions in the game. And that was a good coach though. Right, 57 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: that was the end of Sweeney. Okay, hopefully Cooper will 58 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: have a bunch of longer. Well he won't throw any interceptions. 59 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: I hope. All right, m you did you were you 60 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: in on the media scrum around his locker. I believe 61 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: we were, Yeah, Rob and I yeah, you believe you were. 62 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: I was on the outer boundary of it because if 63 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: he getting run in there like a crazy man to 64 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: get up front, you didn't hear very well, where you're 65 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: a crazy man up front? I was, you know me, 66 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: I'm not getting to get too hyped about anything. And 67 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: he was interesting because he didn't. You know, he doesn't 68 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: get too hyped about anything. Oh, he had like fifty 69 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: people around him, and he was just kind of, Okay, 70 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: what's the big fuss about him? In here to do 71 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: my job? And you know, it's nice to be here, 72 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: And he said, who wouldn't be excited. I mean, he's 73 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: not a super boisterous guy at all, but I got 74 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: the sense he kept saying fresh start. I think with 75 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: what's going on in Oakland, I would imagine this is 76 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: a good situation to be in a team that's at 77 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: least in a division race right now, and he's got 78 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: a chance to be the featured guy. A bunch of 79 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: guys would like to get out of Oakland about now. Well, 80 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: John Gree'll let you do. Probably all you gotta do 81 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: is raise your hand and you'll find a way out. 82 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: John will move you along. Well, he's the reports are 83 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: up there that now are out there that you know, 84 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: we're not trading anybody else. We're gonna try to be competitive. Sure, 85 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: but I think the message has already been said. The 86 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 1: guys in that locker room don't know if they're staying 87 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: or going. Oh that's true, and that's a very difficult 88 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: situation to have to deal with. And he talked about 89 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: They asked how he found out, and he said, our 90 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: negotiator came out. I guess it's they're Bruce May's back 91 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: in the day. Uh. It sounded like it was the 92 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:16,119 Speaker 1: guy that takes care of the cap and no, it wasn't. 93 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: They went to get him to go to MS. Walsh 94 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: I think is the guy's name. Anyway, one of the 95 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: players said they saw the guy walking out and they 96 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: all looked at each other and goes, oh, here's the 97 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: grim Reaper. Somebody's leaving. So that's kind of what's happening 98 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: in Oakland right now. They're pretty aware of what's happening. 99 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: And it's really when you think about it, we talked 100 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: about the message to this locker room, it's the reverse here. 101 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: You know, they're not a one win team right now, 102 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: they're three and four. It's not great, but they're saying 103 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: we're going for it. We're not giving up on the season, 104 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: and why should they. They're only a game and a 105 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: half out of the division. But this is the complete 106 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 1: polar opposite message being sent from this front office to 107 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: this locker room. With bringing Cooper in here. You think 108 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: this is movie. We talk about it helping the offense 109 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: and helping the evaluation of Dak Prescott, but is it 110 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: really more about trying to help the defense? Maybe? I mean, 111 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: I know, Mickey, guys, everybody's been kind of talking to 112 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: Rob it and used well have talking about you know 113 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: that this defense is on championship pace, you know, if 114 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: you think about it, and when what they've been able 115 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: to Now they've got some really tough tests coming up Philadelphia, Atlanta. Yeah, 116 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: we'll see where this defense is made of. But maybe 117 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: this is the preemptive strike that Okay, we're playing well 118 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 1: enough on defense, so we're gonna have to find a 119 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: way to score some points. But I think I said 120 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: this yesterday and I believe it with my whole heart 121 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 1: now that that this this is a message those defensive 122 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: players that hey, you know, the general managers saying, I 123 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: haven't given up on you guys. I'm gonna try and 124 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: help you here, you know, and I'm gonna try and 125 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: help this quarterback, but more importantly trying to help this defense. 126 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: You know, these guys could go out there and get 127 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: some turnovers, get some short fields. I mean, haven't created 128 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: a whole hell of a lot of turnovers, but they've 129 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: been able to get some pressures, set a little bit 130 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: of leakage in the running game the other day. But 131 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: and that back is rare the way he plays for 132 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: old Man. But I you know, I think it's really 133 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: I think the defense. If you're again a defensive player, 134 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: you're you're sitting there thinking, all right, he's trying, he's 135 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: trying to help us, you know, yeah, more so even 136 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: more than the offense. You bring up a good point 137 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: about that they're going to be tested defensively in the 138 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: second half of this season. But right now, the way 139 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: they're playing, this is a group that you can take 140 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: into the playoffs if you get in and have a 141 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: chance to win games, because you know, if you can 142 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: hold teams to seventeen points, twenty points, let's playoff football 143 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: right there, All you need is a little bit more 144 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: juice offensively. I think that's the way they're looking at it. 145 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: What if the argument is they're not good enough offensively 146 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: in the playoffs? Well, would that be why? Well, they're 147 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: they're not right now to be a topic, it's not. 148 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: I mean that starts. What if you you made this 149 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: move and they're not good enough. I mean, the defense 150 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: still keeps playing well, but now you realize, okay, they're 151 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: not good enough. So are you saying that to make 152 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: a run. To make a run, well, then you like 153 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: you said yesterday, I think then you have to take 154 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: a macro view in the offseason of what's wrong with 155 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: everything offensively? What do we have to fix? But right 156 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: now they're going for it. Yeah. No, I applaud him 157 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: for doing that. You know that. I'm just sitting there 158 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: thinking Cooper could be a solution to the problem. It 159 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: may not be the total overall solution. I don't think 160 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: he comes in and I don't think he looks at 161 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: himself as well, I'm the savior now I'm going to 162 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: take care of everything. Well, you better hope he does. 163 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I know what you're saying, Mickey I just, 164 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: I just I just would like to see him the 165 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: targets he gets, make receptions, makes some big plays, kind 166 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 1: of keeps some things going. Give you you said the 167 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: word rob, the word juice. Get this offensive little juice. 168 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: You know, maybe the other guys around him, we'll start saying, 169 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: all right, yeah, I get it. This guy. You know, 170 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: you watch him practice a little yesterday and I'm thinking, 171 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: all right, this gotta go get the football. I've seen 172 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: him do it on tape. Explosive and I know what 173 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 1: we saw was routes on air, but you can see it. 174 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you can see the athletic ability. Mick. We 175 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: watched it for fifteen minutes. He runs so effortless, smooth. 176 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: It's like he glides down the field like he's sliding 177 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: right down the field where other guys has got to 178 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: have a lot of body movement to run. He just 179 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: he's really smooth and he eats up ground really fast. 180 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: Yeah and four three six forty coming out of college. Yeah, 181 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: and only twenty four years old. I mean, the mistakes 182 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: that we made with Joey Galloway was an older guy. 183 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 1: We gave up the extra pick that was that was 184 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 1: stupid on our part. But the thing about, you know, 185 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: you try and get a guy at least as young 186 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: and you can kind of grow with a little bit. 187 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 1: And Mickey's pointed out the contract and all that stuff 188 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: to me, you know, and we're gonna do the draft 189 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: show later on today. I know Dan Brugin his top 190 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,599 Speaker 1: thirty two has got one wide receiver, you know, and 191 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: then it's you know, but people say, hey, well, Bross, 192 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: maybe they're not gonna take a wide receiver. May they 193 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: need to take a safety, maybe they need to take 194 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: a tight end. I get that, but I just think 195 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: that if you're gonna go out and try and help 196 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: this team right now and help this defense, you know 197 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: this this was the right the right move to make, 198 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: what you know, And you can point out that they 199 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: could have taken something else for the first round, sure, 200 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: but probably not likely. Everything's yeah, everything continued as is. 201 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: The wide receiver was going to be a priority, absolutely 202 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: has to be. There was no question. Yeah, so you 203 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: know what do you want you want to you want 204 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: to safety over a wide receiver? I don't think so, 205 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: you know, not when you were struggling at wide receivers. 206 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: So yeah, that's kind of a people be focusing on 207 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: tight ends. Now get ready for that and that's yeah. 208 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: I'm focused on one before next week. Yeah, get one 209 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: in here before next week. So yeah, Jeff Swaim is 210 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 1: gonna be out like he's going to be out a 211 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 1: couple of weeks for sure. Okay. Yeah. Um, and you 212 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,719 Speaker 1: got four games in the span of eighteen days, so 213 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 1: if you're if they're saying a couple of weeks, it 214 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: could easily be four games before you know it. What 215 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: are the Giants? Have they got any excess? Well they don't. 216 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,719 Speaker 1: I don't know that. They consider Evan Ingram to be 217 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: Ulvin Ingra will be a lot of fun to have 218 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: if you could do that, and he really doesn't there. 219 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: Who's their backup title, Well, they've got They've got Ellison. 220 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: Red Ellison is one of them, and he had a 221 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: deal where he got down on the goal line the 222 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: other day. Red Ellison and then Scott's Simonson. The guys. 223 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: If you guys can tell anything about Scott Simonson, I 224 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 1: would be amazed. I can't help you there, Yeah I will. 225 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,199 Speaker 1: The other thing too, sounds like somebody be running for Congress. Yeah, 226 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 1: Scott Simonson, he needs your vote. The other option too, 227 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: If you wanted to go out and get a receiver 228 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: if it's not the draft, and you would have had 229 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: to look at free agency, right and spend a lot 230 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: of money. Now, you know, down the road, if Cooper's 231 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 1: what they expect him to be, you're gonna have to 232 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: pay him to keep him around. But it's a manageable 233 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: contract for the next year and a half. And think 234 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: about and we had a mailback question about this this morning. 235 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: I mean, look at all the decisions they have to 236 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: make on their current roster next year in current terms 237 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: of DeMarcus Byron Jones. Go ahead, Bill, keep, you can keep. 238 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,719 Speaker 1: I just I just landed on a tight end. Got 239 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: you got one? Cole Beasley. They getting rid of players 240 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: in Oakland. Yeah, and I was going through that last myself. Yeah. 241 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: Jared Cook, Yeah, Jared Cook would be the one. Yeah, 242 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: that would be the one you would you would if 243 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: and he's under he's a free agent next year, Yeah, absolutely, 244 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 1: he's in his last year of his contract. Yeah. But 245 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: if you look at who the Raiders are starting to 246 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: tight end, it's Jared Cook, Lee Smith and not the 247 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 1: pitcher Lee Smith back in the day, and Derek Carrier, right, 248 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: So those I mean, those are the three tight ends. 249 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: I think if you wanted to go get a tight end, 250 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: you know what this might be interesting is now check 251 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: the practice squads. Go poach a guy, you know, go Pochman. 252 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: And I know that you could say, well, you want 253 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: to give a pickup for a guy, but a clean 254 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: way to get a guy that might be a young 255 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: guy that you kind of liked a little bit, go 256 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 1: poach a guy if someone's practice squad, Well, teams try 257 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: to do it with Jarwin. Yeah last year exactly. Yeah, 258 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: I think that that if you don't want to give 259 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: up the pick. But Bill, you mentioned it that that's 260 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: that's a fair name to mention because Cook is a 261 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,839 Speaker 1: guy that people have talked about as well. I'm just 262 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: kind of yeah, and you're looking at a team that's 263 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: one in five, one in six, whatever they are, and uh, 264 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: and he's in the last year of his contract, a 265 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: veteran guy, you know, his deal was two years, ten 266 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: million dollars. Got three tight ends. Yeah. No, you're absolutely 267 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: right though, Mickey, that that might be their thoughts. I mean, 268 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: they you noticed they got Schultz involved in that game, 269 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,719 Speaker 1: and maybe they think he's maybe a little bit better 270 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: prepared now than he wasn't in training camp. They did 271 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: draft him for a reason, right, Yeah, so yeah, you 272 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: just have some inexperience there for sure, a whole lot. 273 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's something to consider. How many catches now 274 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: do the three tight ends have the three that are 275 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: that are not named Swain not named Swain? Well two 276 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 1: maybe Jarwin's got Schultz, Ultrico has two, Schultz has one, 277 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,319 Speaker 1: and Jarwin has two. Five right total? So five five receptions. 278 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: Bill's guy Blake Bell from from jackson Yeah. The build up, right, 279 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: he just he just signed last week with Jacksonville. Okay, 280 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 1: might be a situation you might not get that guy. 281 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: But that see what I'm I guess what I'm trying 282 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:09,319 Speaker 1: to say too is and this was some of the 283 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: conversations I had over the weekend with some guys. They're 284 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: they're hunting tight ends, but if you look at really 285 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 1: the depth that a lot a lot of teams are 286 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: just carrying, you know, there's very few teams carrying like 287 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: four guys. A lot of teams are just carrying three guys, 288 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: which would get him down to two. Yeah. So and 289 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: that's what you and then you have to look at 290 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: your own roster. I mean there's teams like Cincinnati. Okay, 291 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: Baltimore's carrying four. Mark Andrews and Hayden Hurst. Those are 292 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: two guys they drafted. Max Williams was a draft pick 293 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: in two thousand and five, second round pick, and then 294 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: Nick Boyle is another guy that they have. So you know, 295 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: there's very few teams them Cincinnati are both carrying four 296 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: tight ends. Uh, the Mami Dolphins are carrying four tight ends. 297 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 1: So yeah, you'd have to probably find somebody. That's why 298 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: I think that maybe you look at some of the 299 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: practice squad might be a way of trying to to 300 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: poach a guy. But then again, in is Jarwin not Jarwin? 301 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: Excuse me, swam not long term? Right? Is that what 302 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: you're telling me? Well, he's got a sprained MCL and 303 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: normally those are two to four. And if you look 304 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: at MALIEK. Collins, he missed three games. So does it 305 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: is it worth? It's not. It's not. You shouldn't put 306 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: him on the on the injured reserve. No, no, you 307 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: got to carry him. Okay, if you got three tight ends, tight, 308 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: yeah I don't. There's yeah, Right, they're gonna play with 309 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: the three they got, right, They're not this is not 310 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: going to be a guys can just do a little 311 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: bit of blocking, you know, down the edge. I'm I'll 312 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: throw out Red Ellison, but only because the type player 313 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: he is, he's under contract through for a couple more years, 314 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying he's there. You go, is I 315 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: mean if you had, if you had a tight end 316 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: that you like somewhere, who could be an h BAC 317 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: type you know? Yeah, well I will trust me. You know, 318 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: I can move I can move on from Thompson. I 319 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: hope his mom's not listening today, you know. Gotta watch 320 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: out for those gotta watch out for those moms. We're 321 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: learning the boys. We're learning that on these shows.

By the way, we've got 324 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: an abbreviated show today because Jason Garrett is at ten 325 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: old five. Yeah, maybe we should promote a Mother's Day 326 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: and only the mothers can call. Mickey one time trapped 327 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 1: me with Keith Smith's mom got about that in London 328 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: and luckily I said some really nice things and it 329 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: was on a show.

Yeah, he's always 391 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 1: been fast, and that's the thing that that's what's kept 392 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: him around people. How many years he played at Carolina. 393 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it was crazy. How I mean the number 394 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: of years A couple of years he was I thought 395 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: it was longer than that. I think twenty sixteen he 396 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: got there. Yeah, he most recently with the Giants, and 397 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: they reportedly let him out of his contract to handle 398 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: a family issue back in August twenty fifteen to seventeen Carolina. Okay, 399 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 1: three years, right, yeah, fifteen sixteen, seventeen, Yeah, yeah, yeah, 400 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: Giants practice squad this year. He can't be practice squad 401 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: off season Giants. So can he return kicks or is 402 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: he still just he's got the guy without the ball, 403 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 1: he's got the speed for it. I think, like Brian said, 404 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: maybe a flyer on special teams. And it was twenty ten. 405 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: He was here twenty ten and eleven, so nine seasons ago. Yeah. Wow, 406 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: I'm looking at him before any anything extra that he's done. No, 407 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: we were in San Antonio, we were ten, Yeah, and 408 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 1: he was a utsa guy, right, yeah, it was a 409 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: big story. No football background back then, that's right. And 410 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: then he went to the Sacramento Mountain Lions of the 411 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 1: United Football Is that right? That's right. They got Mountain 412 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 1: Lions and he was a kid. He was a kick 413 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 1: returner for the Sacramento Mountain Lion. So he does have 414 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: they have they have thirty six career games for this guy. 415 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,719 Speaker 1: Thirty six sweep. Yeah, there he's the jet sweep guy, 416 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,959 Speaker 1: got number twenty seven. Now they run those jet sweeps 417 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: for you. Did you see that? I did see that. Ye. 418 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: He's got one fifty one yard reception in his career. 419 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 1: So there's his offensive production. Yeah, you're stuck on that 420 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: Mountain Lions firears like that. Obi Mela fun Wu though 421 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: a Yukon guy, yeah, and and really a tall, long 422 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: range kind of a guy. Over sixty three. Yeah. He 423 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: was a teammate of Byron Jones at at Yukon, and 424 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: so he's the thing. The thing. I liked the way 425 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: that he hit. I liked the way that he came forward. 426 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 1: I like the way he finished as a tackler. The 427 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 1: problem with him is that he's such a tall guy. 428 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: And I call it when scouting, they call it leggy. 429 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: When he has to turn, he really can't turn because 430 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: it takes him a while for those legs to get 431 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: him around. And so that's some of the struggle he has. 432 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: When he could come down hill and hit and all 433 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 1: that he could be physical. He could play around the ball, 434 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: he can make plays on the ball, but when you 435 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: had to play when the ball went behind him or 436 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: over his head, that's where the struggles were. He was 437 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: a high pick, second round pick by the Raiders because right, yeah, yeah, 438 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: he is a I mean he is a good looking 439 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 1: guy physically, but a like a lot of these tall, 440 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: tall safeties don't have the ability to turn and really run. 441 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: And that's and that that that's one of those factors 442 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: that you you look at when when you're dealing with 443 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: those tall safeties like that. But the frame is probably 444 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 1: more of a Richard type dB four two twenty four. Clearly. Yeah, 445 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 1: he's no, he's a big guy. I mean that's that's 446 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 1: he's an impressive looking guy when you stand next to him. 447 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: About this four four yeah, one fifty one ten yards split, Yeah, 448 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: everything going, everything going, four verticals, yeah, and then an 449 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: eleven eight broad jump. Must be something in the water 450 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: up there in stores Connecticut, because they all jump, they 451 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: all jump up there at stores. So yeah, no, this 452 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: is a this is this is one of those things 453 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: where you have to kind of sit there and you say, Okay, 454 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: are they looking at this guy? You know better? Than 455 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: is it? Is it a better than what they You know, 456 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: they have to keep the who is it? Darry and Thompson? Yeah, 457 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: Thompson was a practice squad, so I need to keep 458 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: him for three So he's now he has to be 459 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 1: here one more week, right, he's got one more game. 460 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: If you want to make a move, maybe the same 461 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: game or weeks, because this counts as a week for 462 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: pay Well, this would be Yeah, I guess this would 463 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: be the week. Then you can after this week, you 464 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 1: could probably trade him out if that's what you want 465 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: to do, if melofon Wood works out well for you. Though. 466 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: I like the guy. I mean he's had some injuries. Yeah, 467 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: I really limited him last year as a rookie. Yeah, 468 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: and and even this year. I think they think the 469 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: Oakland waved him off. Ir Yeah, is he this is 470 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: third year? Second year? Is it? Second round pick last 471 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: year year by Oakland? Yeah, so what he I thought 472 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: he would have played with Byron Jones. I thought he 473 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 1: played it. I thought Byron Jones senior year. Then I 474 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: think so that kind of thing. I think they maybe 475 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: one year together. Okay, maybe I'm confusing him with somebody 476 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: else because I didn't go to the Senior Bowl. Last 477 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: year's past year. Yeah, well we'll see if you saw 478 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: you Senior Bowl. Yeah well so two years ago. Okay, 479 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: we'll see if they signed him. But tell me if 480 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: I'm wrong. I feel like Will McClay has done. He'll 481 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 1: take a look at guys that have been drafted high before. 482 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 1: You know, they've had talent, they've been successful somewhere and 483 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: just and just take a look. We'll see if he signed. Well, 484 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: it might be a guy too that's on your board 485 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: and he's a young guy, right, you know, it's a 486 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 1: young player, and you just you know, saying, okay, why 487 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: can't this guy play? And now you need to figure 488 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: that out.
