1 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: The following He is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot 2 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: Com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. 3 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 2: Cowboys. 4 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:20,119 Speaker 1: This is these Cowboys Storylines with Nick Eatman. 5 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 3: What's up everyone, I am Nick Eatman and this is 6 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 3: another edition of Cowboys Storyline, episode number three. We're so 7 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 3: excited to finally get here, to have the pads come on. 8 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 3: You know, depends on who you ask. Is this the 9 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 3: first day of practice? I mean I think it's the 10 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,599 Speaker 3: first day. Was the first time we actually got to 11 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 3: go out there and see them throw the ball around. 12 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 3: But you ask others. Some people even got here today, 13 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 3: Nate Newton just because Isaiah Stanbak, just because they want 14 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 3: to see it with the pads go on. Because this 15 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 3: is football, or at least the closest thing to it, 16 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 3: and I don't disagree with that. So today, Monday morning's 17 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 3: practice out here at Augnard got to see the pads 18 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 3: come on. It was very physical. Let me let me 19 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 3: rephrase that. Who was physical wasn't very physical? I mean, 20 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,479 Speaker 3: there wasn't guys getting You know, it's not the movie 21 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 3: the program you know where they they're out there doing 22 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,839 Speaker 3: Oklahoma drill and it's not that you know, they still 23 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 3: you're trying to be cautious with things, but still pretty 24 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 3: pretty chippy. Had almost had a couple of fights there. 25 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 3: Got to really see the offensive line defensive line, those 26 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 3: guys mix it up. Maybe it was a little too physical. 27 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 3: We did have another injury in the middle of practice. 28 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 3: Not sure how serious it is. 29 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 2: Uh. 30 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 3: Sam Williams left practice so with a it looks like 31 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 3: a shoulder injury. The word right now is that it 32 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 3: doesn't seem to be that serious. Doesn't mean he's gonna 33 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 3: be back to practice tomorrow, because you know this is 34 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 3: the time to always be be overly cautious. So I 35 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 3: I do think that that he's going to be fine. 36 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 3: And it's out a position too where there is a 37 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 3: lot of depth, because I did see Dante Fowler making 38 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 3: a lot of plays and then the guy on the 39 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 3: other side, eleven. 40 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 2: He's pretty good. I mean he's he's really good. 41 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 3: Micah Parsons today was just as good as we've seen before. 42 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 3: There's a lot of times where Dak is running around 43 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 3: and moving in the pocket and stepping up and making 44 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 3: throws and Mike is just sitting there like I sacked 45 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 3: you three seconds ago, Like it would have been a sack. 46 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 3: I'm trying to be a team player. I'm trying not 47 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: to hurt the franchise quarterback. It doesn't matter who the 48 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 3: left tackle is either tiring, I've seen one. 49 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 2: Let's go. 50 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 3: He goes to the other side, steal edoga, which idoga 51 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 3: gives up a little bit more than some of the others. 52 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 3: I still think he's a guard. Whatever. What do I know. 53 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: I don't coach all line, but Michael Parsons is good, 54 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,119 Speaker 3: so they have it. I'm breaking news here on It's 55 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 3: what we do on Cowboy storyline. No, but I he 56 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 3: was good. Let's talk about some others, the receivers. When 57 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 3: Dak was throwing the all and getting it out there, 58 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 3: I think this was a day for the little guys. 59 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 3: I think this is this is short stack day. Cavante 60 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 3: Turpin was making some catches out there, Brandon Cooks continues 61 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 3: to make plays down the field over the middle. 62 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 2: Whatever. 63 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 3: He's not that shorts as turpid and obviously induced. But 64 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 3: you know he's not not gonna play in the NBA 65 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 3: or anything like that. I mean he might he probably could, 66 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 3: but Deuce Fawn again, they're not hitting the backs and 67 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 3: get it. But you can tell you can tell the 68 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 3: difference between the guys that hit the hole and. 69 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 2: Get through it quickly. They can't find him. 70 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 3: I mean seriously, sometimes being his size can help him, 71 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 3: and I think getting through the line, he's gonna have 72 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 3: some moments now when if he does get hit, he's 73 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: probably gonna lose some battles there. But he's got more 74 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 3: toughest obviously than you think. I mean, you know, when 75 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 3: I look at us and we're playing on having him 76 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 3: on on the show. We're hoping to get him on today. 77 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 3: It didn't work out. Maybe later in the week, we 78 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 3: are gonna get Jake Ferguson. Really excited about that. Certainly 79 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 3: not a consolation prize that the plan was to get Deuce, 80 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 3: But we're gonna get Jake Ferguson and he's gonna be great. 81 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 3: We're gonna have some fun with that. But going back 82 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 3: to Deuce, he had a couple of plays that they 83 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 3: really really intriguing. I you know, somebody said we were 84 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 3: on the sideline and somebody said they just can't keep 85 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 3: two short guys, right, You're talking about Turpin and Deuce, 86 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 3: And I'm like, look at the Dolphins roster. I mean, 87 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 3: don't they have about five guys that are, you know, 88 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 3: under six foot and I've looked at the schedule and 89 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 3: the Celtics aren't on it, so I mean we're not 90 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 3: worried about playing those kind. 91 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 2: Of the guys. 92 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 3: I mean, you can have little guys out there, so 93 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 3: if they can be playmakers, that's who you need. That's 94 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 3: why you didn't win against San Francisco other than the 95 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 3: kicker couldn't make anything is you didn't have playmakers. Once 96 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 3: Pollard got hurt, it was just CD. They knew it 97 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 3: was just CD and he couldn't do anything about it. 98 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 3: You gotta have some playmakers, so it doesn't matter how 99 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 3: tall they are, short, they are whatever. You need those 100 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 3: guys to do that. Another receiver that made some plays, 101 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 3: Jalen Brooks, really really good. We'll talk about him later 102 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 3: on some of the questions, but Jalen Brooks had had 103 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 3: a really good day. I thought Dak did a good 104 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 3: job moving around laterally making some throws down the field. 105 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 3: I guess he had an interception. I'm sure it's all 106 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 3: over social media. He had an interception to Malee Cooker. 107 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 3: He made some other really nice plays as well. So 108 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,679 Speaker 3: excited about kind of what we saw there. The pass 109 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 3: came on, and they also did kicking today. Not bad, 110 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 3: not bad. Again, I say it a thousand times. I mean, 111 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 3: nothing's gonna get settled out here. But but I thought 112 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 3: Brandon Aubrey and did a nice job. 113 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 2: I think he made. 114 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,799 Speaker 3: Six of seven I think of his kicks, and Viscuyno 115 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 3: was five of seven. They had the Mojo moment, you 116 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 3: know where they make a big deal. They stopped the 117 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 3: music and and you know it's called the Mojo moment, 118 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 3: all the teams watching, and they had six kicks, each 119 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 3: of them had three. They moved it back. I was 120 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 3: on the wrong side of the field. I'm guessing about 121 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 3: thirty five forty forty five, five yards something like that. 122 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 3: Nothing too short, nothing too far, and they made them all. 123 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 2: So that was good. That was good. 124 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,559 Speaker 3: So again, this is a good opportunity for these guys 125 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 3: to get some kicks. And then let's see how it 126 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 3: translates over into the preseason games as well. And don't 127 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 3: rule out the kickoff part of this as well. Kicking 128 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 3: off could be a tiebreaker to any kicker. You can't 129 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 3: have a you know. Now, of course, things can change 130 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 3: a little bit with the rule. Well faver catch but 131 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 3: you need to blast it out of the end zone. 132 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 3: And so sometimes we'd always talk about field goals extra points, 133 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 3: but the tiebreakers could be how a guy kicks off 134 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 3: as well. All right, we're just getting kicked off here 135 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 3: on the first segment of Cowboys storyline. When we come back, 136 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 3: we're gonna get Jake Ferguson over here. We get a 137 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 3: mic and get a chair for him. Jake Ferguson over here. 138 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 3: See what he has to say. Be right back on 139 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,799 Speaker 3: Cowboys Storyline. 140 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 4: I'm Duk Prescott, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.

But but 192 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 2: that's what football is. 193 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean starts in the trenches.

No one likes blocking when it's just a 197 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 8: T shirt that doesn't really show football, that doesn't show 198 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 8: the trenches like they like they are in games.

You're talking about 206 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 3: Big ten tight ends and all that. Expand on that 207 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 3: a little bit more that you guys think because the 208 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 3: conference you're coming from it's a little bit different than 209 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 3: the rest. 210 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 9: Thank you. Yeah, yeah, I mean I got that. 211 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 8: Someone gave me that nickname recently, a big Biscuit, so 212 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 8: I was like to have my roll with it, and 213 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 8: then it just took me to Big ten. 214 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 9: All the tight ends coming out everybody in the room. 215 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 2: So are you a big biscuit? Are you blocking the 216 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 2: big guys up front foot? 217 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 8: I think everybody in the front seven is considered a 218 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 8: big biscuit, but the big like Yeah, like big Hank. 219 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 9: He's he's a big biscuit, you know what I mean. 220 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 3: I have seen I've seen some plays. It seems like 221 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 3: a little bit different than last year, where the tight 222 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 3: ends and the tackles are on the move and trap blocking, 223 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 3: and which means sometimes you're gonna be hitting guys. 224 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 2: You're gonna be hitting those tackles. 225 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 8: You're gonna be hitting those Oh yeah, I mean yeah. 226 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 8: Dub came in this year and was like, Hey, we're 227 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 8: in the trenches. We're gonna be blocking the big fellows 228 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 8: this year. And I mean, at that point, it's a mindset. 229 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 8: Everybody in this room can do it. It's just kind 230 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 8: of getting over that hump ware, throw your nose in there, 231 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 8: and get after it. 232 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 3: Well, speaking of that, have you been told of the 233 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 3: Jason Witten wham the nose story? Jason will basically, I'll 234 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 3: give you the short version. Jason Garrett was talking about 235 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 3: how the tight end cuts in and it's just supposed 236 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 3: to just you know, seal off the deep nose tackle 237 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 3: and and but he didn't ask Whitten to do it 238 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 3: in practice, and so he got upset about it, like 239 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 3: why can't wham the nose? 240 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 2: And you know, here's your all pro tight end. You're like, well, you. 241 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 3: Don't need he wouldn't stop. He's like, finally like fine, 242 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 3: go ahead, you know do it. So that's to me 243 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 3: the example of the mindset of like complete ted end. 244 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 3: I'm gonna make catches down the field, but I also 245 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 3: want to mix it up for sure. 246 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 9: I mean, yeah, it starts in the trenches. 247 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 248 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 3: Luke Schoonmaker is out with with the foot injury, and 249 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 3: so then again, even if he wasn't, who knows what 250 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 3: the tid end situation looks like. The starters and all that. 251 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 3: How do you guys prepare for that each day? 252 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 9: Is it? 253 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 2: Are you? 254 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 3: Are you focused on the starters, the ones, the twos 255 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 3: and threes? 256 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 9: No, I mean, honestly, not at all. It's really and 257 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 9: I think L. 258 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 8: Dub kind of sums it up really well that we 259 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,719 Speaker 8: have one of the best groups we've had top to 260 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 8: bottom and everybody can play, and it's it's about when 261 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 8: your numbers called, when you're in, when you get that rep, 262 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 8: you got to I mean, you got to show everything 263 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 8: you got. You got to win that rep. It's all 264 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 8: about winning rep and winning reps and that wins this games. 265 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 3: L dub being lunda wells tight ends coach, and he's 266 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 3: easily one of our favorites too. 267 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 2: Just he just seems like he just keeps it real. 268 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 2: He's a little hobnous. 269 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 3: I know you guys love playing for him. Do you 270 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 3: I have to ask, do you have I should know this. 271 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 3: Do you have brothers? 272 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 2: I do? 273 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 9: I have an older brother. 274 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 2: Okay, how old? 275 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 9: Four years old? 276 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 3: Four years so competition wise, you were probably always trying 277 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 3: to catch up to him and do all that when 278 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 3: you were younger. 279 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean yeah, all the time. 280 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 8: We would we play football in the basement, tackle football, 281 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 8: and he was obviously way taller, being four years older 282 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 8: than me, so he'd be like, all right, I'll play 283 00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 8: on my knees and he'd still throw my head through 284 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 8: the I mean wow, never never won those games. But 285 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 8: then yeah, I'm about five inches taller than I'm now 286 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 8: you passed him. 287 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 2: Okay. 288 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 3: The reason why I ask you that is the tight 289 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 3: end room seems really really close. You guys are competing 290 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 3: against each other. You want Peyton Hendershot to make plays, 291 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 3: but you also want to be better than him at 292 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 3: the same time. Is it seems like a brother type mentality? 293 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean you could definitely say that. Uh, we 294 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 8: always picture the tight ends as a brotherhood. I mean 295 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 8: very rarely do you find a tight end that just 296 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 8: isn't a good dude. And so, I mean competing against 297 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 8: each other makes each other better. But also at the 298 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 8: same time, you got to support your group because at 299 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 8: the end of the day, we're going to be on 300 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 8: the field together. 301 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 3: What did you learn last year from Dalton Schultz as 302 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 3: a veteran and then obviously you know understand the business 303 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 3: side of things as well. 304 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 2: What did you learn from him? 305 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 3: And when when he left, did you say, all right, 306 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 3: this is a great opportunity for all of us to come. 307 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 3: There's more snaps, there's more reps. 308 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think I think Dalton was was really a 309 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 8: VET and I mean he showed it everywhere, whether it 310 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 8: was the weight room, mobility, stretch, recovery, or even on 311 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 8: the field.

I had a 335 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 9: lot of growing up to do. 336 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 8: I think, not only not only physically, but mentally as well. 337 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 2: And would you give up like food, like chips. 338 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 8: Gave up chips coming from Wisconsin, being a drinker, had 339 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 8: to give up with a little bit of beer. 340 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 2: A little bit they just get yeah, okay. 341 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 9: That's in my blood. 342 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, But I mean just the little things and then 343 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 8: taking care of my body got big into walks. 344 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 9: Last night. 345 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 8: I was out here, did a couple of laps and 346 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 8: just I mean, not only is it good physically to 347 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 8: just get your body moving and not lay around, but 348 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 8: I mean. 349 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 9: For the mental part of the things too. 350 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 3: So you went on that trip with the offense with 351 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 3: Dak and them. Yeah, so you just drink water? Yeah 352 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 3: I did. Okay, Yeah, I'm going to ask you about 353 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 3: Dak in the offense, the weapons you guys have added 354 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 3: there on obviously with with Brandon Cooks, who seems like 355 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 3: he is taking some other younger receivers under his wing. 356 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 3: But how good do you think this offense has a 357 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 3: chance to be? 358 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 8: I think it has. I mean, our destiny is in 359 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 8: our hands, and I think we're the ones who are 360 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 8: going to decide how good we are as an offense, 361 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 8: as a group position groups. I mean, I think there's 362 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 8: a great connection this year, not just inside position groups, 363 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 8: but as an offense as a whole, and I think 364 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 8: that's that's ultimately going to take us to the next level. 365 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 9: But it is on our hands. 366 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 2: Awesome real quick, and I'm almost done here. 367 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 3: So if you met somebody, just met some guy for 368 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 3: the first time and he was really funny and telling 369 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 3: a bunch of jokes. The next couple of times you 370 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 3: meet him, you probably expect him to, you know, be 371 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 3: even funnier. Right Going with this is so you guys 372 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 3: were very creative when your touchdown celebrations as rookies. Yeah, 373 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 3: the bar has been set, like now you got to 374 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 3: take it to So is where does that come come 375 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 3: up from? I mean, is it here in a training camp? 376 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 3: Is it just like spur of the moment? 377 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 2: Is it the night before? 378 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 8: A lot of it's spur of the moment. Now I'm 379 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 8: not talking like, hey, this drive if we score the 380 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 8: game before, yeah, or the a couple of days before 381 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 8: or so, or the week before. I've definitely got a 382 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 8: couple on my mind right now, that would be pretty good. 383 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 9: Uh. 384 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 8: A lot of the trouble is seen like sometimes I 385 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 8: want all eleven guys to do it right. 386 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 9: The hard part is getting. 387 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 8: Tiring to want to buy into it because it might 388 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:24,479 Speaker 8: be a little goofy. 389 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 3: But yeah, we'll see what happens.

We got one more segment here. 447 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 3: We appreciate Jake Ferguson join us. He's always a lot 448 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 3: of fun. You know, those guys are fun when you 449 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 3: just see like like we talked about with the celebrations 450 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 3: and all that, but still it's more than that. I mean, 451 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 3: you can tell how serious he is about his craft 452 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,640 Speaker 3: and how wanting to be better and that opportunity that's 453 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 3: there and and and honestly, he's the guy that I 454 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 3: think at the end of the day, he's gonna be 455 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 3: the guy. I think that that that plays the most 456 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 3: because I think he's he's the most complete of the 457 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 3: tight ends, and I just don't see anyone right now 458 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 3: kind of un unseating him to be the guy. So 459 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 3: let's get to the questions. And and I have to 460 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 3: admit I didn't have my paper ready when I just 461 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 3: got it. I didn't have it ready when I was 462 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 3: interviewing him. So I got a question from Carolyn Williams 463 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 3: wanted me to ask you, Jake, not including Hendershot, which 464 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 3: ted d has seen the largest growth. I think he 465 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 3: would have said, I really don't know, honestly, I'm not 466 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:19,959 Speaker 3: sure who he would have said. Maybe one of those rookies, 467 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 3: John Stevens, Noah fant those guys. But you know, I 468 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 3: know Linda Wells is a really good coach, and so 469 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 3: you know they'll they'll he'll get these guys ready to go, 470 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 3: just like he did with Ferguson and Hindershot. Another question, 471 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 3: I tried to get the question from the aspiring journalist 472 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 3: that had two, which is smart. That's how you're gonna 473 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 3: be a good journalist because you already know how to 474 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 3: do the double question in there. It's nice he asked. 475 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 3: The question to me was which player are you most 476 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 3: interested seeing if they will be flexed? Leyton, vander Rosh 477 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 3: or Overshown. Well, Overshown's actually right over here, So I'm 478 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 3: gonna say Overshrown because he's like here and his family's 479 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 3: here and all that. No, but both of them are 480 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 3: going to be the position flex that they are going 481 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 3: to give. What I think Overshown brings to this defense 482 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 3: can take them to another level because of his versatility, 483 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 3: his willingness to play a lot of positions, very very 484 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 3: smart coming. 485 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 2: Into the door. 486 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 3: Like, there's so many good things about him that it's 487 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 3: going to help the guys around him. So I think 488 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 3: it's not an either or, it's a both situation there. 489 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 3: All right, let's get down the line here. Jose Rodriguez 490 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 3: have the tight ends among themselves discussed who they think 491 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 3: will be tight in one, two, three, four and so on. 492 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 3: We sort of talked about that to Jake. I don't 493 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 3: think they're in that mode of worrying about that to themselves. Maybe, 494 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 3: but right now they don't really talk about all right, 495 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 3: Nathan Ross, he's a long time guy. He's been out here, 496 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 3: he lives out here in California. He's been out to 497 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 3: Aux Star. He was out this year as well. So 498 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 3: what's up to Nathan Ross? He said, Nick, is this 499 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 3: is really our best option when it comes to the 500 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 3: field goal kicker, isnt They're better out there on the market. Yes, 501 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 3: there are better kickers out there right now, more expensive too, 502 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 3: but they are better kickers. But that's not what they're 503 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 3: looking for right now. What they want to see is 504 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 3: if Brandon Aubrey, Tristaviskay. You know, they want to see 505 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 3: if these guys can be the kicker. And I don't 506 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 3: know if you can see it out here. It's a 507 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 3: tough place to kick. We talked about it last week, 508 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 3: and I think you're going to see it in games. 509 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 3: There's always gonna be a veteran kicker that's available, and 510 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 3: so you just have to go there. If it's time 511 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 3: to go there, that's what you do. But I don't 512 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 3: think they're ready to do that right now. Why should 513 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:32,719 Speaker 3: they be. They want to see if these guys can 514 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 3: can make it happen. So we'll see, all right. Joe Simpson, 515 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 3: he said, Hey, Nick, longtime listener here. After Jerry's comments 516 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 3: about Zach Martin, where's your level of concern about whether 517 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 3: he will start the season with the team. We talked 518 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 3: about Zach in the first segment and then Jerry's comments, 519 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 3: and I'm pretty alarming. But the concern about whether he 520 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 3: will start with the season, You mean the regular season. No, 521 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 3: he's gonna play. I mean fifty thousand dollars fries they 522 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 3: add up. But start missing game checks. You know your 523 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,239 Speaker 3: salary is divided by one eighteenth. I mean that is 524 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 3: your salary. You start missing that, that's what it's. That's 525 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 3: what's a real holdout. Mickey Spegnoel used to say this 526 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 3: all the time, and I believe him. Mickey says, he's first. 527 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 3: I remember he was the first one to tell me. 528 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 3: It's not a real holdout unless you miss a game check. 529 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 3: So that's what I I don't see that happening. I 530 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 3: don't see that happened with Za. So, as I said 531 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 3: last week, he might be concerned the team, the offensive line, 532 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 3: the chemistry, but as a fan, you shouldn't be concerned. 533 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 3: He'll get here, as Jerry says, when he gets here, 534 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 3: all right, DJ from lawyer up three. He's a lawyer 535 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 3: out here in California, he says. Dalvin Cook not an 536 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 3: option because of his price tag or the scheme. I'm 537 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 3: not sure it's either one, honestly. I mean I think 538 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 3: can they go could they go sign him? 539 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 2: Yeah? 540 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 3: They could sign Dalvin Cook if they needed to right now, 541 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,360 Speaker 3: they could bring him in. Scheme wise, what I mean, 542 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 3: big running back that catch the ball out of the 543 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 3: backfield like yeah, that you could hit a scheme around him. 544 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 3: I think it's a it's it's injury, durability, age, progress stopper, 545 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 3: all of that. And it's not just the Cowboys, it's 546 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 3: all the other teams. So you know, same with kicker. 547 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 3: If a team decides they need later on to get 548 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 3: the guy, they'll go that route. I wouldn't imagine it 549 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 3: happens here though. Mike Gray, another Old Time listener from 550 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 3: a Popka, Florida, He said, I have not heard much 551 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 3: about Damon Clark. Do you think he will make a 552 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 3: big leap this season in year two? 553 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 2: I do. 554 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 3: I think the linebacker position, I think the guys that 555 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 3: that we that we've talked about before just now with 556 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 3: Overshown and Layton, I think Clark has a chance to 557 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 3: really make that that next leap. We didn't think he 558 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 3: was gonna play last year and and he not only 559 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 3: did he play, but he played and he played pretty well, 560 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 3: especially for a rookie that coming off an injury like that. 561 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 3: So I think he will do Uh, he'll be just fine. 562 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 3: I think he's gonna be a guy that's gonna help 563 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 3: love his attitude, business like approach all the way for 564 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 3: Damone Clark. All right, Matt Sports Matt twelve. He says, 565 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 3: I know it's still early, but a roster surprise that 566 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 3: can happen that wouldn't completely shock you. I just think 567 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 3: the defensive tackle position is going going to be It's 568 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 3: gonna shake out in a way where you're gonna see 569 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 3: some good players that are released. They're gonna have to 570 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 3: cut draft picks. I don't know who, but I just 571 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 3: there's not room for Quintin Bohanna and Neville Gallimore and 572 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 3: Chauncey Golston and all of them. I'm not saying they're 573 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 3: neither one of those is gonna get cut, but I 574 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 3: don't see how they all make the team. Those are 575 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 3: the guys that are three, four and five on the 576 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 3: on the list. So I just that's the position. I 577 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 3: think something weird is going to happen there, all right, 578 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 3: Brian Woodward. Do you believe this defense can be the 579 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 3: number one defense in the league this year? If so, 580 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 3: what unit needs to play the best to achieve that? 581 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 2: Linebackers? 582 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 3: I think I think it's the linebackers, because I do 583 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 3: think the defensive line and the edges are gonna be great. 584 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:02,959 Speaker 3: I think the corners, I think to say, I think 585 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,439 Speaker 3: I think they're gonna be good all the way. The 586 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 3: linebackers probably got the spot. That really is uh something 587 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 3: that that that makes you kind of scratch your head 588 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 3: a little bit. So that's the position, yeah, to look 589 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 3: at all right, Eric, two rs, Eric with two RS, 590 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 3: I like it. This is a good question. Is Jalen 591 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 3: Tolbert really standing out or is it a matter of 592 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 3: expectations relative to last year? That that that is something 593 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 3: that we always have to factor in always because when 594 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 3: you when you think this guy gonna line up, okay, 595 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 3: is this guy gonna gonna actually make the catches? So yeah, 596 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 3: I mean that that's that was the bar it was 597 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 3: so low last year. Then now is he making play? Yes, 598 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 3: but he is making plays. Even on top of that, 599 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 3: I think he does look really good right now? All right, 600 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 3: what are the standard this is from Mayo our last one. 601 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 2: Who are the. 602 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 3: Standouts of camp so far? Is there a player on 603 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 3: this team that isn't being talked about you feel will 604 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 3: make a significant impact this year. Remember, they just put 605 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 3: the pads on today, so it's hard to kind of 606 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 3: figure that out until today. No offensive lineman or even 607 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 3: linebacker running back really gotta gets a good shot to 608 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 3: to kind of figure that out. We've been looking at receivers, 609 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 3: tight ends, guys that actually, you know, catch the ball 610 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 3: and things like that. So but I will say today 611 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 3: some of these young receivers kind of have started to 612 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 3: take that next level. And Jalen Brooks, I mean he's 613 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 3: a guy that really has done some some nice things. 614 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 3: I think he caught more passes today than he had 615 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 3: they did his entire career at South Carolina. Mean really, 616 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 3: that's that wasn't what he did. He was a special 617 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 3: teams guy. So he was somebody that that has done 618 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 3: a lot. I say, we're gonna take take more. I 619 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 3: got a couple more questions here. This one was from 620 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 3: j T. Conrodn't really about football. He says, I heard 621 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 3: you say you watched the Crawford Spence fight. We weren't 622 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 3: surprised with the outcome. Do you guys get that much 623 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 3: time off to watch things like that? Would you watch 624 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 3: the fight again? Hey, we're working, man, Okay, we work. 625 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 3: I remember this is West Coast. Okay, we're here, we're working. 626 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 3: But no, my man William Borkins actually got the fight. 627 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 3: He got it programmed in, signed in. You know, we 628 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 3: watched it on a projector's. 629 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 2: Screen and all that. 630 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 9: He was cool. 631 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 3: But yes, I have seen Crawford fight and I just 632 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 3: I thought he was bigger. I thought he was gonna 633 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 3: be bigger all along. It definitely showed. Would I watch 634 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 3: that fight again if it's on? Maybe, But I mean 635 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 3: I'm not going out of my way because I mean, 636 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 3: I think we've seen what happens there, So that's I 637 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 3: don't know. I don't know, And maybe they fight a 638 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 3: different weight class, who knows. I mean, I mean, you 639 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 3: guys didn't know you're gonna come here for some boxing 640 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 3: analysis as well.
