12
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: When I sat there, I was hoping. I was thinking

13
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: that the chair would make me like cranky, you know

14
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,960
Speaker 1: what I mean. But it didn't. I was like the

15
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: same person all over. It helped you be knowledgeable, No,

16
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: it did not pass it off to you. You did

17
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: not know I was. You don't have to save the

18
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: show because I was definitely dragging it down with your

19
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: energy from your chick I was. I was thinking about

20
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: your guys, your Oh yeah, I didn't call in. I

21
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:36,400

25
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,960

26
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,160

Speaker 1: Ir Yeah? Like okay, okay, okay, okay, you probably count

29
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: that probably four times, four times, four times? And how

30
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: many years? I think the first time it was like

31
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: but how forty some years ago? Okay? Wow? So in

32
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: the last like it's like five years, it's been like

33
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 1: three times three yeah. Wow, that's a lot. You're starting

34
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: to break down. That's why, that's why you can't sign

35
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: these over thirty year old right, right, careful better be

36
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: careful with the guaranteed right. I haven't had any guaranteed

37
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: any well. Uh. And it was a time, by the way,

38
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: you had a good time. You needed a ding? Yes

39
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: was your tan? I mean I was covered up? It

40
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 1: got colder. Where were you Summit County in Colorado? Okay? Um,

41
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: I'll tell you one funny story. First day finished, we

42
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,799
Speaker 1: were at the top going to ski down one more time,

43
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,679
Speaker 1: and that was it. Took a break when he got

44
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: some water warmed up, came out. My skis were missing. WHOA,

45
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: no skis. They weren't there. Someone took them, lying, bro, no,

46
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: So it gets funnier. Okay. So I I kinda hung

47
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: around for a while, right like outside the upper Mountain house,

48
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: there's like four racks of skis and I knew where

49
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: I put mine. They weren't there, So I kind of

50
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: waited and said, okay, maybe somebody by mistake took them. Right,

51
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: So I started looking around and I found another pair

52
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 1: of skis that were exactly like mine, except the poles

53
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: were different. They had red handles, and I'm going, Okay,

54
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: somebody can't be that stupid to take mine and not

55
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: notice the poles on the handles on my poles are

56
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: black and his were red. Right, that little distinction is

57
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: that's huge? Okay? Okay, So I hung around, hung around,

58
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:16,559
Speaker 1: and it was getting ready to close up, and those

59
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,239
Speaker 1: skis were still there, and I'm going that guy took

60
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: my skis, But I said, what are the chances that

61
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: he took my skis and his foot his boot fit

62
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: in my bike, right, so you have to have another

63
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 1: little pits. I was sitting there, yeah, and what are

64
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: the chances somebody's gotta side. So I was sitting there

65
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: and my wife goes, well, see if those fit you,

66
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: and I go, well, there's no way that's going to happen.

67
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: So they fit right. So I took a picture of

68
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: the skis and they told me to go down to

69
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: Lost and Found. When I get down, so I had

70
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: to ride the iron gondle down on looking right. Well,

71
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: so I didn't it sounds like lack of playing to me, Chris.

72
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: So you know what, there was a sticker on the

73
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: guys on the guy's skis. It had his name on there, right,

74
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: So I took a picture. I go down to the

75
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: Loss and Found where they told me, and the guy says, yeah,

76
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: you know what, if we got his name, we can

77
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: look up his left ticket and track him down and

78
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: see if he took your skis because I left the

79
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: other ones up there right, So he was waiting on

80
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: somebody else and he said, okay, we need to fill

81
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: out this form. So we started filling out the form

82
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: and I showed them the name on the skis, and

83
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 1: he repeated it and had the guy's address, so it

84
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 1: must have bottom. Right, there's a guy standing next to

85
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: me and he goes, wait a minute, that's me. Oh,

86
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: he took my skis. He had him in his car

87
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 1: on the rack, and then he realized that the polls

88
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 1: were different and he came back to see if something,

89
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: but see nobody. That's small distinction. That's tough too. You

90
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 1: know what are the chances though? The guy was standing

91
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: right there, Oh he was. He was a little bit taller,

92
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: not much, so I marched him right to his car

93
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: to get my skis. I said, they might send years down,

94
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: but give me my skis. And you know what. The

95
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 1: moral of the story is, skis no the moral. The

96
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: moral of that story is that the cowboys haven't done

97
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 1: squatting free agency. Because we're talking about Mickey's skis the

98
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: first five minutes. What do you mean, Yeah, I have

99
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: nothing to talk about, other teams to talk about, not

100
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: on the verge of signing Dooran's armstrong. You're not excited?

101
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 1: The only the only yeah we can talk about? Not

102
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: what not signings we had. Let's talk about how about

103
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: that one? I got a long list. I bet you

104
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: do well that I'm wanted the top of the list,

105
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: go right to the top. Yeah, where were you starting?

106
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: There's so much to do. Gotta start. We gotta start

107
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: with Come on, we gotta start with Randy. Guys. Come on,

109
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: it out. I mean, what do you think happened? I mean,

110
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: what was the what was the I don't deciding factor?

111
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: Is it that obvious that the man just wants to

112
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: go somewhere week and smoke some week? Is it that obvious?

113
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: Come on, having been in Colorado for a week where

114
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: it's legal, Well, it's legal. I'm sure you smelled it

115
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: at the airport as soon as you came in. The

116
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: dispensaries are about as plentiful as seven eleven. Yeah. Yeah,

117
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: I've been there. I've been there every corner by the way. No,

118
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: I don't you know what. I'm not sure he wanted

119
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: to be here. I don't know why, and he didn't

120
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: have the nerve to tell Jerry No wait wait, Okay

121
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: said again he I don't think he I think his

122
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,239
Speaker 1: agent wanted him in Denver. Okay. Schaefer is based in Denver,

123
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: by the way, But but is that a factor Your

124
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: agent tells you that, I think Jerry talked him into it,

125
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: and then at the last minute it was like, Okay,

126
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna come up with some menial excuse for not

127
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: saying so the agents running everything you're telling me, Randy

128
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: Gregory well has no say in his own future when

129
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: you're talking no, I think he didn't. I think he

130
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: wanted to go to Denver and he didn't have the

131
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: nerve to tell Jerry no. So we So you think

132
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: that after all that we've been through together, you know,

133
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: bringing him out of you know, really from being out

134
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: of the league, hanging on to him, having trust in

135
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: him kind of you know, molding him a little bit,

136
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,079
Speaker 1: making sure he's okay, give him a chance to to

137
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: have a new a second career, and then to him

138
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: feel indignant that the Cowboys didn't trust him and had

139
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: that in his contract. Come after what they've been through

140
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: with him. Yeah, how long was this was this? Well,

141
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: it's been sick years, right, he was a two twenty

142
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 1: fifteen draft choice, right, but he only bet seven seas. Yeah,

143
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: five five years of but but you know, going through

144
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: all the ups and downs together, right, Yeah, together. You

145
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 1: would think that he would say, you know what, this

146
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: is my place, this is what I'm going to be.

147
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: I don't That's why, I mean, we're in harmony. You

148
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,319
Speaker 1: do you think it? We're in harmony. I don't understand it.

149
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any logic to the entire thing.

150
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: And and his agent has been around for a long time,

151
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: So don't tell me he came up with this excuse that, oh,

152
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,719
Speaker 1: they snuck this clause into the contract. He knows what

153
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: the Cowboys contracts are. He knows to read the whole thing, right.

154
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: Don't don't come up the last minute and say, oh,

155
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 1: we changed our mind, and and and the other thing

156
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: that ties into this. I was reading. See, I was

157
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: told from here von Miller was going back to Denver.

158
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:11,439
Speaker 1: And then when Denver saw that they could afford million dollars, yeah,

159
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 1: well it's actually it's actually three years, fifty three million.

160
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 1: It's a little under eighteen million a year. It's seventeen

161
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 1: and a half over the first four years of the contract,

162
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: fifty one million guaranteed. But after Denver saw that they

163
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: couldn't afford that, they said, okay, we're signing Randy Gregory.

164
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: And it was cheaper. So yeah, there's no way they

165
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: tried to sneak something in there. It's there. It's on

166
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 1: everybody's contract. Schaefer knows that, and to come up with

167
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: that was the excuse. I just so the Gregory contract,

168
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: even though it reads five years seventy million, twenty eight

169
00:10:53,000 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: million guaranteed, what is it in reality it is? Is

170
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 1: it two years twenty eight million? It basically so it's

171
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: five years seventy million, he's guaranteed his guaranteed twenty eight million, right,

172
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: and so four million base salary for twenty twenty two,

173
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 1: fourteen million base salary guaranteed for twenty twenty three, So

174
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 1: that's eighteen and ten million dollars signs. Yeah, so it's

175
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 1: twenty eight million. So by the third year they can

176
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 1: get out of it with a it was a ten

177
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: million dollars signing bonus. Yes, and so the way I

178
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 1: looked at six million, at six million dollars on their cap,

179
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: they get out of it in their third year. From

180
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: a cap of cap standpoint, it's a three year, forty

181
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 1: two million dollars deal and they can get out of

182
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 1: it in twenty twenty five for four million dollars and

183
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,479
Speaker 1: ten money. Okay, so yeah, it's twenty eight million guaranteed.

184
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: So do you think he's think getting up back forget

185
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: that note? Do you think that he is that influenced

186
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,560
Speaker 1: by his agents to where he would like, hey man,

187
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: forget what these guys did for you. You know, this

188
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: is the way you need to be in I'm convinced

189
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,199
Speaker 1: somebody got in his head? Is he that is it

190
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: that he needs to get in his head? I don't

191
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: know what kind of can I don't. I don't know.

192
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: I don't because he seems I mean, I think he's

193
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: pretty bright, pretty sharp. Uh, and I don't know that

194
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: he did. You know, he got indignant because he's you know,

195
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: and here's the weird thing. If you get suspended, you

196
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: don't get paid. That's part of the league, and it's

197
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: part of the league that the team has to write

198
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 1: to get pro rated signing bonus back from the games

199
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: you missed, ghost, ask Lele Collins. That's why Lele Collins

200
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: fought his six game suspension. It wasn't about well, I

201
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 1: got to play, No, I got to get my money,

202
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 1: and that's why he was fighting the suspension. So, now

203
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: what is the nuance between the Lyle Collins versus what

204
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: would happen with Gregory because you're talking about suspensions versus fines. Correct,

205
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 1: you're talking about your claus in the contrast, it's it's

206
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:20,079
Speaker 1: it's but it's a suspension, so they have the right

207
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: to get money back from that. They've paid and the

208
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: process would be the same whether you're talking there's no

209
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,719
Speaker 1: nuance between the two. Well, I don't know that the

210
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: fine like, if the league finds you, they don't suspend

211
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: you now for testing positive for a substance, um if

212
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 1: you get fined. I don't know how it league works,

213
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 1: but I guess the team, if you're the team, wouldn't

214
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: try to get money back because you're not missing any right, right,

215
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: But if you're missing something, they have that right. So

216
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,719
Speaker 1: I I was I was shocked. And they were two

217
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: by the way, and and then there was this thing

218
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,680
Speaker 1: floating around that well the Cowboys screwed up the negotiation

219
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,839
Speaker 1: because Jerry and Stephen weren't part of it. And you know,

220
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,959
Speaker 1: their capologist, Adam was taking care of it. No, they

221
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: were on the phone with him and had convinced him

222
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: to sign with the Cowboys, but Denver was already talking

223
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: to him right That's why I wrote today that you know,

224
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: the Broncos on their social media tweeted out surprise, and

225
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: it's like, do you think anything surprises me these days?

226
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. Well do you think that they're delayed in

227
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: working with him as well? Because it seemed like he

228
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: was not necessarily priority? We got Gallup done, right, Yeah,

229
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: Cooper's gone, But he signed the same deal with Denver

230
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: that he was going to sign with the Cowboys. So

231
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: minus the clause, yeah right, yeah, I guess, yeah, but

232
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: it's the same deal. Yeah, well minus the claws. But

233
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: they said we didn't know that clause was in there.

234
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: I ain't believing it. So how upset should the Cowboys

235
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: be that Randy Gregory's not on the team. I think

236
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: they probably should be very upset, I think so, especially

237
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 1: after all the time effort, and remember what was it

238
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: two years ago? They advanced him money and extended his

239
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: contracts so he could pay for his rehab when he

240
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: wasn't playing. Then when he got suspended that entire season.

241
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: I mean, they've bent over backwards to keep it, no

242
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: doubt they've. They've made some concessions, no doubt they have.

243
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 1: So Okay, maybe i'll rephrase it this way. Um, do

244
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: you two think that he should have been a priority

245
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: in free agency? Well, he was they were signing before

246
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: in your opinion, in your opinion, if you were, if

247
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: you were calling the shot and putting this team together,

248
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: would he Well, you think they should have paid him more. No,

249
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: I'm myself, I'm like, look elsewhere. I'm just looking at

250
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 1: the track record over the last seven years, right, and

251
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: with that kind of money, with that kind of money,

252
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: and it and it's not the off the field stuff

253
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: at all, because that's seems to be taken care of.

254
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: It's I mean, the production has not been there. This

255
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: past season. Even the production was not there. He didn't

256
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 1: stay on the field for seventeen games. He had six sacks.

257
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: There's plenty of guys out there, and you can find

258
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: you can find edge rushers. Go go find some other

259
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: edge rushers and spend them out there. I mean, that's

260
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: that's the way I looked at it from the get go.

261
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: Is okay, he's unless he comes at a at a

262
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: rate that you're comfortable paying. And I would not have

263
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 1: been comfortable paying fourteen million dollars a year because I'm

264
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 1: not I haven't had the production. I mean it's sixteen

265
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:05,360
Speaker 1: sacks in his career and move on, let's go, let's

266
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: let's find somebody else. See And I think when you

267
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: look at some of the plays that he made and

268
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 1: I see the talent is there. Yeah, yeah, you saw

269
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: some of the amazing plays that went along with an

270
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: entire group that was making a lot of good plays.

271
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: So he fit in well with that group. And so yeah,

272
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: you can bring somebody in another edge rusher. Edge rushers

273
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 1: don't have to necessarily be in tune to the defense.

274
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: The edge rushers if they were limited in what they

275
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 1: have to do their responsibilities, but that's what gives them

276
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: the ability to kind of be creative physically. They don't

277
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: have to think too much because they're at they're just

278
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 1: playing edge rushers. But yeah, you you know, when you

279
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: look at it, he did well within the concept of

280
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 1: this defense and all those other guys that were making plays,

281
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: but it wasn't sustained over the course of an entire season.

282
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 1: And I think part of what you would be paying

283
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: for is the threat, because you know what he's capable

284
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: of if he ends up producing, and other teams have

285
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 1: to account for his presence and and it's not all sacks.

286
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 1: It's his ability to put pressure and he had a

287
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,239
Speaker 1: bunch of pressures. Um led the team in pressures if

288
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken, And and and the fact that he

289
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 1: could play the run now if he just stays on

290
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: side Um. But that's another of those. That's another. But

291
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: there are a lot of edge rushes right out there.

292
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: I mean, no doubt about it. We are in regards

293
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: to just getting to the quarterback. Yes, we can always

294
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: find someone. But can we find someone that could do

295
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,160
Speaker 1: the small things right, you know, the play the run

296
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: well and be the threat that he that they got

297
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 1: a better edge rusher playing linebacker right now, well they do,

298
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 1: but then they don't have and so there's other there's

299
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: other ways of skinning this gat. Okay, So if if

300
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: if you can't find edge rushers, you got one at linebacker,

301
00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: play him at edge rusher and and sign your linebacker

302
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: or three or three. So, I mean, guy, it comes

303
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: down to what kind of money you're going to stip. Well,

304
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,679
Speaker 1: and here's here's the other thing. Everybody's saying, well, okay,

305
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 1: now they because his average was going to be fourteen

306
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 1: million a year, right, But you don't immediately count fourteen

307
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: million a year against the salary cap. So what his

308
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 1: cap charge was going to be for the first year

309
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,439
Speaker 1: was six million dollars. So that's all they got to

310
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: play with, right for this year, it's six million dollars.

311
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: It's not like, okay, they got fourteen well, let's go

312
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 1: spend fourteen million on somebody else. Now it doesn't work there.

313
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: So the cap that Cooper created for us, that's pretty

314
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 1: much used up with a two contracts with Shelton and Gallup.

315
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: Uh primarily, although Schultz's contract they'll get a long term

316
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: deal done with that. He's not going to play under

317
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: the TA for a ten point nine million dollars. But

318
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: my point on the edge rusher thing is if I'm behind,

319
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 1: if if I'm back there in making decisions, Okay, Randy

320
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: Gregory didn't take our offer, he moves on. I mean,

321
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 1: I think you've got in your hip pocket that Michael

322
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,719
Speaker 1: Parson's card and you could always go that way, right,

323
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: And they don't know apparently him there every downright game,

324
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: But apparently the draft has there are some good edge

325
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 1: rushers in this draft. There are other guys out there

326
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: or whatever, and there's there's there's guy, and there's a

327
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: number of ways to. You know, we focus so much

328
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 1: on our own players that I lose sight of what

329
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: else is around the league. You look around and there

330
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: are some guys out there that can contribute. Maybe they're

331
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,239
Speaker 1: not in every down, but a specialty pass rusher. I mean,

332
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:56,360
Speaker 1: Houston signed one, and this Oboko, who I think has

333
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: got a lot of potentially. He was with the Rams

334
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: the last four years, and Rams are pretty set at

335
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 1: in their front seven, and now he gets an opportunity

336
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,360
Speaker 1: back home in Houston. I would have you know at

337
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: he probably I don't know what he signed for, but

338
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,239
Speaker 1: it was a one year deal. It wasn't for that

339
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 1: much money. Bring him in here and you know and

340
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: um and you know as a third down pass rusher.

341
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,439
Speaker 1: So you're saying you don't need to give a thirty

342
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 1: three year old edge rusher a six year, one hundred

343
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: and twenty million dollars man. That was crazy thought. And

344
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 1: guaranteeing ye years that was impressive. His agent must really

345
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: be good. I don't know what he saw are it

346
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: shows you Buffalo had money to spend the cap, I know,

347
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: but they're not spending on their quarterback. Right He's still

348
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 1: under his first contract, if I'm correct, and tell me

349
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 1: who their running back is, tell me who the slot

350
00:21:55,240 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: receiver is. Now, let go who's available? Right, Okay, comes back.

351
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: So when we come back here on mix shots, we

352
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,639
Speaker 1: move into the wide receiver, realm on this team and

353
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 1: other things that are going on that impact this team. Yeah,

354
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 1: they'll make some moves eventually in free agency, just not

355

399
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup just spoke to the media, had a conference

400
00:24:55,960 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 1: call eleven thirty so after probably about done if and

401
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 1: so that was a nice deal for him. And of

402
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: course the news of the past week, Amari Cooper is

403
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 1: now a Cleveland Brown Cowboys. Exchange sixth round picks and

404
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 1: pick up a fifth and now they've got two other

405
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: compensatory fifth round picks. So they've got four four fifth

406
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 1: round picks in this upcoming draft. And you love that

407
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 1: for the draft. Don't start spending them things to move up. Yeah, yeah,

408
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: that's right, that's right. So Michael Gallup signs a five

409
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: year deal fifty seven point five million, could be as

410
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: much as sixty two point five. He got a ten

411
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: million dollars signing bonus, twenty three million guaranteed, and one

412
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: of the key things in his contract is they've gave

413
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 1: him a per game roster bonus, so fifty eight thousand

414
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,400
Speaker 1: and eight twenty three for each game he plays up

415
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 1: to one million a year, so he can add a

416
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: million a year to that five year deal for five

417
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: more million. That's his injury been updated. I mean, are

418
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: they're thinking still like we talked publist first six games.

419
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's six, if it's for All

420
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: I know is if I know, he's gonna try to

421
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:11,880
Speaker 1: get back as soon as he can so he can

422
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 1: get that if I count seven months, and that's kind

423
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 1: of conservative, right return for an ACL and he had

424
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,679
Speaker 1: it in the middle of February, that gets me through September.

425
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 1: Would you like to hear what Michael Gallup said about it. Yes,

426
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: his goal is to be ready for the season opener

427
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: coming off February ACL surgery. He quote, you don't want

428
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: to miss games, but you can't put a timetable on it.

429
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 1: But that's obviously the goal. You want to play as

430
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: soon as possible, but you've got to make sure you're

431
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 1: right before you go out there. And seven and seven

432
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 1: and then that's the latest. And even if he's what

433
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 1: he just said, even if returns in seven months, I mean,

434
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 1: you got to keep rehabbing, right, and by time you

435
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: get in, you're gonna miss the off season. Not to

436
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: mention those routes a little different against air, right the

437
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 1: real person? Yes, So so now week seven, Week seven,

438
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 1: you think start him on pup. Well, the good thing

439
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 1: is the season starts later again, right middle of September

440
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,640
Speaker 1: instead of the first to September I think, am I right?

441
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:25,640
Speaker 1: It's been like that. It starts the week after Labor Day? Right,

442
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 1: Well last year was it? I mean it was September ninth,

443
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 1: because they started on a Thursday, September twelve eight last

444
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 1: year or two September five or so. But anyway, if

445
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: you go through the whole month of September that you're

446
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: not ready, you're going to miss two or three games

447
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,879
Speaker 1: for sure, right, And now you're in October, do they

448
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,919
Speaker 1: put him on pop if he's not ready to go?

449
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: And if you if you start on pup. You miss

450
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 1: six games, you still got eleven regular season games to

451
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: play the whole college season, right here you go. So

452
00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 1: so that lets you know what they think about the

453
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 1: Marty Cooper sending them to Cleveland. That was ugly. That

454
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: was ugly. That's not the place I want to end

455
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: up if I'm leaving the Cowboys, you know, leading the

456
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: team all the time I was here. That's a tough one.

457
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: So yeah, if you're a Marii Cooper, okay, and you

458
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 1: so his salary that twenty million, that's that's his base space. Yeah,

459
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 1: twenty million base And so he's still on his existing

460
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: contract and he got that guarantee coming up fifth day

461
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: of the four days away. Okay, you would rather be

462
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 1: a free agent right then go to Cleveland on the

463
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: existing contract or not? Well, I mean what's the market

464
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: out there? They got rid of Landry for him, Yeah, yeah,

465
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: I could see that, and they need him, so there's

466
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 1: no pressure for you too. And they're not getting to

467
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: Shaun Watson by the way. That yeah, it was decided

468
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 1: this morning. So the only way they can change your mind,

469
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna have it. They sound like they're gonna have

470
00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 1: an adult at quarterback. Now ye all, Yeah, that was

471
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: what I think it was more reported it yesterday that

472
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: it was an anonymous inside the Browns organism. They need

473
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 1: to find an adult to play quarterback. Yeah, so the

474
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 1: only way they can, I'm thinking it's gonna be Jimmy Garoppolo. Yeah,

475
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: that is what's going to be. The Only way they

476
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 1: can convince him to redo the contract would be to

477
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 1: give him signing bone. Give me money up front, right,

478
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 1: and I don't have to work eighteen weeks for twenty

479
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 1: million dollars. I'll take half of it today and then

480
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: I'll restructure my contract for you. But that leads to me,

481
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 1: after what we just talked about, Michael Gallup maybe not

482
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 1: ready for start of the season. The Cowboys just created

483
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: another hole that they got to fill. That's what I'm saying. Now,

484
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: he's a number one receiver. I don't care numbers, right,

485
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 1: I don't care. He had seventy eight catches and Ceedee

486
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 1: Lamb had eighty eight or whatever it was, uh or

487
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 1: he had sixty eight. Whatever is sixty eight and seventy eight. Yeah,

488
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 1: you still need who now if it's Ceedee Lamb and

489
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: what for the season? Exactly tell me that what do you,

490
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 1: what do you what are you willing to pay for

491
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: a veteran wide receiver right now? Depends how old? Like

492
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: Julio Jones. Okay, let's throw his name out. No, let's not.

493
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: He's thirty three, let's not. Yeah, but he's well and

494
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: he's got hamstring issues the last two and we talked

495
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 1: about him during the season. Remember we saw him on

496
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: TV and it was like, where did Julio Jones go?

497
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: He didn't look like the same guy. Injuries take its toe, man, right,

498
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,959
Speaker 1: I mean, they really do. And it's it's shown up

499
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: the last two years. You can just look at his

500
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: his playing time rise to you. And Tennessee went through

501
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 1: a lot of trouble to get him. They gave up

502
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: a second and four and the coach never liked him.

503
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: They never got if it's a veteran guy, then it

504
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: would have to be a one year prove it deal.

505
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 1: To me, Now, Jarvis Landry's out there right, how much

506
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 1: does he want? To say? Everybody? But the question is

507
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 1: how much do they want to make? And if it's

508
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: April and you're still sitting out there and everybody's reporting

509
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: the offseason practice, you might take a little less. You're

510
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 1: sitting there going, huh, I don't have a job and

511
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: I better get going. And Landry was a good receiver

512
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 1: until this whole Baker Mayfield things started coming up to

513
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 1: shoulder injury that really affected both of their production, right,

514
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: and it all fell back on Landry And from then

515
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: on they're pressing. A Beckham's still there at that time,

516
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: and they're pressing trying to make things happen, and Landry's

517
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: place suffered because he missed a lot of passes. And

518
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 1: when that light has shined on you and you're the

519
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: number one guy and you don't come through, it gets

520
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: brighter and brighter. And that's what happened with Landry. His

521
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 1: career was decent, his career was more than decent, but

522
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: this past year did not hold up to the standards

523
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: that he's used to putting out. So, having said that,

524
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: do you think Cede Lamb is a number one receiver?

525
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 1: I do? I think one receiver. I do think he

526
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 1: can handle that. We can put him in different places,

527
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: we can put him in the backfield. At the same time,

528
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,680
Speaker 1: having somebody like Michael Gallop out there, not first seven

529
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 1: games obviously, but when he's on having having him out

530
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: there trying to do things. Here's what we did last year,

531
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: and Michael loving about for a good point. We had

532
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: a lot of good players, but they're not the great players.

533
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: They're not the two, they're not the guys that we

534
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 1: need to come through. And as we went down the

535
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 1: stretch and the line started, you know, having problems, and

536
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: we started having problems passing the ball, that that's who

537
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: needed to step up for us. The superstars, the Cede Lambs,

538
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,239
Speaker 1: the Coopers. Okay, they did not to step up for us.

539
00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: And if they did step up, we didn't have enough

540
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 1: time to give them the ball. And that really affected

541
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 1: everything with the Cowboys. So to me, what, like Michael

542
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: Luvian said, you gotta go to your stars no matter what.

543
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 1: You can't go to Cedric Wilson right now. You see

544
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: what happened with that. This is crucial. We can't call

545
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson's play, We can't call his number. This is

546
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: the time. This is why we pay Cedee Lamb, This

547
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 1: is why we give them all the hype. This is

548
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: why we pay Cooper, this is what we were brought

549
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: him back for. Gallup. We need you guys to come

550
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: through for us right now. We didn't allow them to

551
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: do that. We didn't call their number when there was time.

552
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 1: So you've only got one number to call. Now you

553
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: got one, well maybe tell maybe two with shows depending. Well, yeah,

554
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 1: but I think Shultz. I think Schultz ended up with

555
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 1: the production he had because of the double teams to

556
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 1: cover the Cowboys wide receivers. And it's like, okay, well

557
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 1: let's go. But what they did. They came up and

558
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: jam them. That's what they did. They squatted on every route,

559
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: so that off the middle of wide open, I mean

560
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 1: tight ends up. Made the living off of that forever.

561
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: That's how That's how I learned Nova checks Nate. And

562
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 1: how do you get rid of that? You run the football,

563
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,840
Speaker 1: And how do you run the football that'll get us

564
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: to our next sub ship the offensive line? Right, that's right.

565
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 1: So now they've got a hole there and okay, so

566
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 1: what's the status on this Lyle Collins trade? Well, you

567
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 1: can trade him, but it's thirteen million dollars in dead money,

568
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 1: either a million and a half all this year or

569
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,759
Speaker 1: part this year in part next year if you make them.

570
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 1: But if you trade them, designate him June one, right,

571
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,879
Speaker 1: if you release him, you so what do you okay, So,

572
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: but you don't get that money until June one on

573
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: his base salary, which could can sign a draft class.

574
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 1: Half of it gets guaranteed here in by the twentieth Okay,

575
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 1: oh okay, so I got my little March twentieth here.

576
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 1: What happens? So what do you need? Okay? My question

577
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,839
Speaker 1: for you is, if you've made the decision that you're

578
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 1: moving on from Collins, what do you need to get

579
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 1: in return in a trade to How high a draft

580
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: pick do you need in order for you to take

581
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: that rather than the benefit that you can have by

582
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 1: designating him a post un first cut. I need more

583
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,359
Speaker 1: than the fifth. But who's going to give you that?

584
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 1: Knowing that you're probably gonna cut them? Right? Well, I

585
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,320
Speaker 1: mean that you can say the same thing about Cooper,

586
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,239
Speaker 1: who was going to give you a fifth? And that's

587
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: what they got, right, which made me laugh yesterday. Uh Washington,

588
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 1: and I finally got the type commanders. Yeah, but my

589
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 1: mistake I type commodorees, which I think is a better name.

590
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 1: Man have got all the just so bland, Yeah, the

591
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 1: commodorees man that that bakes them a spot man anyway

592
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 1: to it. So evidently evidently they should have. But anyway, uh,

593
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 1: they were, they were too late. Yeah. I think so

594
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 1: they've they've that's a great idea. So anyway they were,

595
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: they were debating what to do with matt Ionidas is

596
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 1: not how I say, that's good, Yeah, you got it.

597
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 1: And uh evidently they said they weren't gonna trade them, right,

598
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,839
Speaker 1: and then they are they weren't going to cut them,

599
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,719
Speaker 1: and then they cut him. Yeah. Well it's like, of

600
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 1: course they're not gonna say we're letting them go and

601
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 1: then try to trade him. Who's gonna trade for him? Right?

602
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 1: So the agent, Uh, I think it's Alan Alan Herman.

603
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,320
Speaker 1: He accused Washington of lying, and I said, imagine that

604
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: and agent accusing somebody of lying. So anyway, so back

605
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,799
Speaker 1: to the offensive line. If I mean, if they're going

606
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 1: to make that move, then they think Terrence Steele can

607
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 1: step up and be the starting right tackle, right, but

608
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: you still have an opening at guard because somebody thought

609
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,919
Speaker 1: Connor Williams was worth seven million dollars a year over

610
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 1: two years to fourteen million over two years a year. Yeah,

611
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:36,719
Speaker 1: so now you got a hole there. And I'm sorry,

612
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 1: there's not every draft Zack Martin out there that you

613
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 1: can qualify using a first round pick on for a guard,

614
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: such a position sometimes of strength and just brings him down.

615
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: But you could you could trade down like you did

616
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: when you got a center Travis Frederick. But he touches

617
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: the ball a free play, right, it's a guard. I'm

618
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 1: not using a first round pick in a guard unless

619
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 1: that guard is your eventual tackle, right, exactly, So I'm

620
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:24,240
Speaker 1: draft I'm drafting a tackle to play guard because we're

621
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 1: sitting here, you know, Okay, say you cut Leo Collins, right,

622
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 1: so oh, Terren Steele can step up and be the starter.

623
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 1: Now what happens at the third tackle? Who is it?

624
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,840
Speaker 1: The fourth round pick from last year out of Marshall? Okay,

625
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 1: hopefully because we're just as name Josh. But we're assuming

626
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 1: that Tyrn Smith's just going to go out there and

627
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: play seventeen games, right, And even when he got back

628
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:01,760
Speaker 1: he struggled a little too. It wasn't the same Tyrant Smith.

629
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:08,479
Speaker 1: So so you're thinking draft a left tackle can play guard?

630
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: How about the second round? Can I get one that

631
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,839
Speaker 1: can play guard? Yeah? Sort of the way they did

632
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 1: what flows Al Adams? Remember he was a tackle. He

633
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 1: started at guard and then moved outside when they needed

634
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 1: to put him at tackle. They did it with They

635
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 1: did it the next year with um Solomon Page did

636
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 1: the same thing. Probably he played the guard and then

637
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 1: he went out and played tackle. That's what I would do.

638
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:45,839
Speaker 1: I'm not drafting a pure guard in the first round anyway. Well,

639
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: have they developed now, you know, into players that can

640
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 1: be multi tasking players? I mean that it's like nowadays

641
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 1: you get you've got these hybrid safeties that can play

642
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 1: safety in lineback. I mean, are we getting to the

643
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,879
Speaker 1: point to where a lineman are getting groomed to where

644
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,959
Speaker 1: you can play tackle and guard at the same time,

645
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: because everyone acts like the nuances in the difference of

646
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: that is so vast that you can't do it, you know.

647
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it'd be tough to be like a safety

648
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 1: in the corner. So do we need to move to

649
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,279
Speaker 1: the other spot they need to feel Since you brought

650
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: up that, I guess brought up right away, the linebacker

651
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,879
Speaker 1: and safety. Yeah. One of the thing though on offensive line? Yes,

652
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,279
Speaker 1: are you out now? When was Connor McGovern drafted in

653
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 1: the in their third round? What year is he now?

654
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 1: This is four? This is this four? Gotta look at me?

655
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 1: Think it is Okay, so what are you saying. Are

656
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 1: you out now on Connor McGovern? Is he not a

657
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,919
Speaker 1: candidate to be a starting left guard on this team? Well,

658
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,280
Speaker 1: he got a channel, he got a chance, he didn't playoff.

659
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 1: Wasn't about an offensive line coach? Who is he Joe

660
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:58,279
Speaker 1: philbin Joe? Is he still here? Yes? Is he the man?

661
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: Is he the man? Can he coach? And McGovern was

662
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:05,239
Speaker 1: in nineteen so he'll be a free agent after that

663
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: coming out. Can can he take you know, these young guys?

664
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 1: And he did a pretty good job with tern still there.

665
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 1: You go from where he was as a rookie to

666
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: how he played last year. So when you're talking about

667
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,880
Speaker 1: the guys with with with this potential McGovern and guys

668
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,919
Speaker 1: like that, can he take them to the next level

669
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: as a coach, because I mean you've got of course,

670
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 1: you've got talent, but when you have a system here

671
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 1: that's based on running the ball, protecting the quarterback, can

672
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: he bring these guys back to where we need him

673
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:40,640
Speaker 1: to be. We don't need superstars necessarily to be good lineman.

674
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: We've had average lineman blocking our defensive lineman all over

675
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,439
Speaker 1: the place last year when we couldn't stop the run.

676
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:51,239
Speaker 1: Do we need all pros to make this work on

677
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: our offensive line? So you're saying you wouldn't have spend

678
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,800
Speaker 1: three years, forty nine and a half million, and Brandish

679
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 1: Schriff who is that Washington offensive guard and went to Jacksonville. Okay, okay,

680
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,759
Speaker 1: And by the way, by the way, the Commodore is

681
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:16,399
Speaker 1: just uh, we're gonna call him the common We're we're

682
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 1: doing them a favorite. The commodorees are they basically have

683
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 1: made a trade of guards because Andrew Norwell, who was

684
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:25,720
Speaker 1: with Jacksonville is now with the Commodore. And and Farriff

685
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 1: went to Jacksonville, right, trade thirty three million in two years,

686
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 1: thirty million guaranteed for a guard. And so what was

687
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 1: his pedigree? He was a pro bowl you know, I

688
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: mean he was good. Okay. One thing that doesn't work

689
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: on the Commodore's nickname, Carson. Listen to the word Carson

690
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,399
Speaker 1: Wentz does not look like the quarterback of the Commodore.

691
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 1: He's the Commanders, right, Yeah, he's a quite big of

692
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 1: the Commanders. No, no, ye, bring half comes back in. Yeah. Bridgewater.

693
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 1: Two gloves and the Commodoors. That is a great name.

694
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,840
Speaker 1: Two gloves and the Commodoors. Yeah, well, Jamis would have

695
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 1: been good. Is anybody surprised that Cedric Wilson got what

696
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 1: he did from Miami? No, I'm not. I'm not surprised,

697
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 1: and okay, would uh all right? I had someone say, well,

698
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: the Cowboys should have given him that money, But do

699
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 1: you think no, three years, twenty two million, that's a

700
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 1: that's to me, that would be a lot for your

701
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 1: third receiver. That's what I'm talking about. And he played

702
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 1: like a third receiver down the How much are they getting? Okay,

703
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: they got to bring in a veteran, right, I think so,

704
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,760
Speaker 1: so how much then are you willing to pay this veteran?

705
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:51,320
Speaker 1: Not that much? So you're looking at any acts five million,

706
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 1: and he got guaranteed twelve point seven five so over

707
00:43:56,760 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 1: three years, that's like four million a year. So they

708
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:06,080
Speaker 1: didn't really pay that much, but it's still four million

709
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: a year when you're in the shape you are. I

710
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,360
Speaker 1: heard somebody start arguing, well, who's gonna throw the football?

711
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:17,360
Speaker 1: And it's like, I'm worried about who's gonna catch the football.

712
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:23,399
Speaker 1: I'm worried about the three end around passes. Okay, so

713
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 1: we moved next to what position? Let's go linebacker. Who's

714
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:33,280
Speaker 1: gonna play the linebacker for this team? Aside from Mica

715
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:37,879
Speaker 1: when we come back here on mix shots and if

716
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:39,839
Speaker 1: we have before there was a draft, you could size

717
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,360
Speaker 1: up a cowboy by three simple factors. Decrease in his hat,

718
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 1: the bend of his brim, and his unbending attitude a man.

719
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,440
Speaker 1: Stetson didn't just protect him from what life threw at him,

770
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 1: At the camp we were doing the camp for high school.

771
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,239
Speaker 1: But what's he doing? Like in I didn't ask him.

Speaker 1: this to you. Brad Smith. No, I did not here. Man.

774
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,720
Speaker 1: He influenced me a lot just from you know, watching

775
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 1: him play and as on as well as he did

776
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 1: in his teen years ago. He did a hell of

777
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,319
Speaker 1: a job. I really was inspired by him. Who's the

778
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:53,279
Speaker 1: greatest quarterback in Missouri history? Is it Bradley? No? He

779
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,359
Speaker 1: knows where I'm going on. We're gonna have to go away.

780
00:48:55,880 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: No you're not. Oh it's Jase Daniel. Yeah. I got okay. Yeah.

781
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 1: And by the way, he's coming back for his fourteenth

782
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 1: year in the NFL and he's played five games five

783
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 1: five games, ten five five games. He's a Chargers recently.

784
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:16,080
Speaker 1: This little hadn't be a coach, man. I remember. Remember

785
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 1: it reminds me. We did a when the old Cowboys channel.

786
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:22,960
Speaker 1: We did a high school football game South Lake Carol

787
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:26,359
Speaker 1: played Denton Ryan, Yes, and playoff game, playoff game at

788
00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:31,240
Speaker 1: Texas Stadium, and Mickey Chase Daniel had committed to Missouri,

789
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 1: so Mickey had to go check he bout. So he

790
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 1: goes down on the field because he just wanted to

791
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 1: see how tall this guy was, because he wasn't sure

792
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 1: he was tall enough to be able to play. And

793
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 1: my conclusion was, I'm a little worried about a short Well,

794
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:46,799
Speaker 1: he kind of didn't. He wanted to see if he's

795
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:51,799
Speaker 1: taller than Mickey did really at Missouri and play well,

796
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:57,000
Speaker 1: put him back on the mat. The's no doubt. As

797
00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:00,960
Speaker 1: a matter of fact, he did h a charity golf

798
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 1: tournament and it was for his charity and the University

799
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:08,080
Speaker 1: of Missouri. And I hosted the awards ceremony. So he was,

800
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:10,319
Speaker 1: are you still taller than him? And I said, I

801
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 1: told the story. I did tell thee's got he's looking big.

802
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:18,160
Speaker 1: Story made people laugh. And he's standing next to me,

803
00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:22,200
Speaker 1: got on his tipping Yes was much taller. Yes, he's

804
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 1: a little a little rounder than you. But mentioning Phil Bradley.

805
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:29,239
Speaker 1: So I was back in Columbia covering Missouri football. It

806
00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 1: was nineteen seventy seven and Pete Woods was the starting

807
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 1: quarterback and in the season open he got hurt and

808
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:40,680
Speaker 1: they went to a freshman called Phil Bradley. Became the

809
00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:46,640
Speaker 1: first black starting quarterback at the University of Missouri nineteen seven. Yeah,

810
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:50,160
Speaker 1: played for the Seattle Mariners too, and he became a

811
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:53,840
Speaker 1: better baseball player. Yeah he did. That was that's a

812
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,440
Speaker 1: good story, Yeah, Phil bad it was good. As a

813
00:50:56,480 --> 00:51:00,719
Speaker 1: matter of fact, he came here, he left Seattle and

814
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:05,439
Speaker 1: went to was it Boston? He was leading the league

815
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:10,160
Speaker 1: and hitting and and and Phil didn't like doing interviews, right,

816
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,560
Speaker 1: and uh, I showed up in the dugout and he

817
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:17,080
Speaker 1: saw me and we started talking and he goes, yeah,

818
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 1: for you, I'll do an interview. Everybody's looking like Phil

819
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 1: Bradley's talking to you. Yeah, it's like, yeah, we go

820
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:30,000
Speaker 1: way back. He wound up with Baltimore, Baltimore, I said, Boston. Yeah,

821
00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 1: and that was that was big time for me because

822
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,440
Speaker 1: I had that was seventy seven. I was playing with Doug.

823
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:38,080
Speaker 1: Doug was going for the Heisman's right, and so then

824
00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,080
Speaker 1: here comes Phil, you know, he comes in and it

825
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,520
Speaker 1: just really starts bawling, and it just really made you

826
00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 1: take a look at him, you know, and just look

827
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:46,600
Speaker 1: at what he was going through, because Doug was going

828
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:48,840
Speaker 1: through a lot of stuff at that time, being the

829
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:52,319
Speaker 1: first time, and Phil did too. Yes, and yes, that's

830
00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,240
Speaker 1: that's what we know at Grambling. We knew that without

831
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,719
Speaker 1: any reports coming out. We knew that he was going

832
00:51:57,719 --> 00:51:59,920
Speaker 1: through a lot of stuff because here was Doug. They

833
00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:02,399
Speaker 1: you going through all of these things and jump off

834
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 1: all these hurdles, and so we knew a bill and

835
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 1: he was taking heat and it's like, hey, the kids,

836
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:10,759
Speaker 1: a freshman, he's right out of high school and he's

837
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:15,160
Speaker 1: starting now. Then he turned everybody's heads in the next

838
00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:22,920
Speaker 1: three years. He was awfully linebacker. Who where Michael? Where

839
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 1: Michael Parson? That's the way? Where do you want? The

840
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:29,279
Speaker 1: people are just shouting Bobby Wagner at you right now? Well,

841
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:31,799
Speaker 1: how much does Bobby Wagner want to play for a

842
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:35,000
Speaker 1: lot of money? He does at the he kind of

843
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,359
Speaker 1: at the end of He's in his thirties too, right, right, Yes,

844
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:41,760
Speaker 1: I mean you know, the Cowboys could have had Bobby

845
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:46,720
Speaker 1: Wagner back in yes twenty and twelve draft in the draft.

846
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 1: Okay they do, we do we need to review that. Yes,

847
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:56,319
Speaker 1: Cowboys traded up. They traded the fourteenth pick and the

848
00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:58,920
Speaker 1: forty fifth pick to move up to number six and

849
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:04,040
Speaker 1: took Mo Clayborne, and they could have had they could

850
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:08,120
Speaker 1: have had Michael I think of Michael Brockers and um,

851
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:11,399
Speaker 1: Bobby Wagner. Let me say this, Molay was a heck

852
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,720
Speaker 1: of a player in college. I don't know what happened.

853
00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:18,040
Speaker 1: He couldn't stay healthy. It was more than that, but

854
00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:23,840
Speaker 1: he couldn't stay healthy, and then he lost confidence. But

855
00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:26,480
Speaker 1: he was I saw him play in person at LSU,

856
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,680
Speaker 1: and it's like, I want that guy, bad guy. He

857
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:33,360
Speaker 1: was that guy. He was returning kicks. They would start

858
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:36,360
Speaker 1: a game, the game I was at, and they would

859
00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 1: receive and the whole place would stand up in anticipation

860
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: of the ball going to Morris Claybourne. So, yeah, we

861
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:48,440
Speaker 1: just got We just got a buzzer luck on. That

862
00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 1: was just buzzling. But but but how much does Wagner want?

863
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:53,759
Speaker 1: I would like him to be my middle linebacker. Could

864
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 1: he sign a you know, I wonder what they paid. Um, oh,

865
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,720
Speaker 1: the linebacker they got from Miami for like two years

866
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:06,160
Speaker 1: when Bill was here. Um, he was up for the

867
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame just recently, Jack Thomas, Zack Thomas. Yeah,

868
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,879
Speaker 1: they signed him to like a two year day. It

869
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:17,960
Speaker 1: wasn't much, I mean at the end of that kind

870
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:22,799
Speaker 1: of so, but yeah, that would be fine. But and

871
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,920
Speaker 1: again I keep here and say, well, you got fourteen

872
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:27,600
Speaker 1: million dollars that you didn't give Randy Gregory, you give

873
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:31,479
Speaker 1: it to Bobby Wagner. I'll repeat it. He was only

874
00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:35,200
Speaker 1: gonna cost six million the first year against the salary cap.

875
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,920
Speaker 1: So that's what you say, six So can we based

876
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:43,200
Speaker 1: on that? Can we still get Bobby Wagner? I don't

877
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,759
Speaker 1: know what he wants to make And I mean, and

878
00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:49,239
Speaker 1: what other teams are offering right the other team, because

879
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: it's not like the Cowboys are the only one that

880
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 1: need a line So do we have a report on

881
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,360
Speaker 1: others that are looking at him? I have not heard that.

882
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,400
Speaker 1: I haven't seen that yet. Um so maybe we're in

883
00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:02,840
Speaker 1: that m Online for sure, I saw a couple of

884
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 1: the Ravens reaching out to him wanting him to go there.

885
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 1: Uh huh So and then that drives the price up,

886
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:12,760
Speaker 1: right because we're in a free market here. Yeah. So,

887
00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:16,520
Speaker 1: but if you have Bobby Wagner, then that freeze up

888
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:19,920
Speaker 1: Michael to do more things. Yeah no, because we're still

889
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 1: another you still need another linebacker. I mean, it's it's

890
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:26,480
Speaker 1: it's Micah Parsons right now. And like I said, and

891
00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:30,760
Speaker 1: who well, I'm just saying a linebacker of that ilk

892
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:35,400
Speaker 1: of that ability. Okay, and then you've got I mean

893
00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:39,319
Speaker 1: yet Jabril Cox who's coming off and injury. Yeah yeah,

894
00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:42,040
Speaker 1: and he play it wasn't bad. He played five percent

895
00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:46,719
Speaker 1: of the defensive snaps last year. You're hoping, see, the

896
00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 1: whole key to this whole thing is gonna be guys

897
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:55,120
Speaker 1: like Jabril Cox stepping up and filling these holes. Can

898
00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:58,479
Speaker 1: he step up? You mentioned Josh Ball kind of laugh

899
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,520
Speaker 1: but seriously, they thought he was going to compete for

900
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:06,960
Speaker 1: the third tackle. Can Chauncey Gholston step up and be

901
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:11,400
Speaker 1: a defensive end they need? Can Semi Fijoko? Is he

902
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,120
Speaker 1: a player? I don't know, fifth round pick, They didn't

903
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:17,879
Speaker 1: use him very much. Can he have now right, they're

904
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 1: going to have to some of these guys can make

905
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:22,399
Speaker 1: half the jumps that Diggs did from one to two.

906
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,560
Speaker 1: The yeah right, you're hoping, right man, because because now

907
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,320
Speaker 1: Oco DIGGI Zoo has gotta I mean, he's got to

908
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 1: be a player that he showed signs, showed signs of it.

909
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 1: But they don't have you know, the other who's the

910
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:39,880
Speaker 1: other defensive tackle? Gallimore Gallimore? And they need Bohannah to

911
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:42,719
Speaker 1: step up to be a player. No, Galimore's here. No,

912
00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:45,600
Speaker 1: the ones that that signed the one year deals with

913
00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:48,239
Speaker 1: Brent Urban and Carlos Watkins and so they're free as

914
00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 1: matters that. I just saw MALIEK. Collins signed up. Yeah,

915
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:55,600
Speaker 1: nice deal. It's Houston, yeah, Houston, right, And he was

916
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:57,520
Speaker 1: a guy they didn't want to lose. It was the

917
00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:00,759
Speaker 1: same thing with Anthony Hitchens. Would he liked to come back?

918
00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:04,320
Speaker 1: There's another there, that linebacker. He's kind of at the

919
00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 1: end now. He would be one that would be more

920
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:09,200
Speaker 1: in the salary range you're talking about. And I think

921
00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:13,239
Speaker 1: he still has a home here. Yeah, um, so that

922
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:16,280
Speaker 1: would be. I could see that he was in the

923
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 1: he was in one of the bunker suites at the

924
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:23,920
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving game. Well like like no, like they had they

925
00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:29,320
Speaker 1: had the week off, so he decided to come. I thought,

926
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:31,480
Speaker 1: you meant when we went to Kansas City. I thought

927
00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 1: I saw him on the field. No, No, when Kansas

928
00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:36,600
Speaker 1: Kansas City had that week off, right, and the bye

929
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 1: week that week. Okay. So it's funny because if you

930
00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 1: look down, there's a suite in the end zone where

931
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 1: I think a couple of the players had a suite

932
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 1: down there, and he was sitting front row. Watching the game,

933
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:48,880
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, that's very interesting, and I think

934
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,800
Speaker 1: that's just you know, and I haven't seen his name

935
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 1: come up. You know, so what about a one or

936
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 1: two year deal? And you know, he was still starting

937
00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:01,080
Speaker 1: for Kansas City, he was a cap causually all of

938
00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:04,120
Speaker 1: a sudden, he'll turn thirty in June. They gave him,

939
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 1: they gave him that big contract when the Cowboys thought, okay,

940
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:10,560
Speaker 1: let him go into free agency. We'll find out what

941
00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:13,400
Speaker 1: he's worth in Kansas City pay. What do you think's

942
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:18,440
Speaker 1: gonna happen with Leyton Vanderish? I don't know. Are you

943
00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:25,520
Speaker 1: surprised he hasn't signed with anybody yet, mack am I surprised, Yes, um, somewhat,

944
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,840
Speaker 1: but not really. And you might be able to get

945
00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 1: him back on a one year That tells you that

946
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,080
Speaker 1: he's not getting the offers that because he would be

947
00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:37,080
Speaker 1: jumping at something right, I would think, so, I think

948
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 1: he wants to come back. I don't know, though, what

949
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:42,920
Speaker 1: the price would be and how much they pay. I

950
00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:46,800
Speaker 1: think that the price is coming down because look, if

951
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:51,040
Speaker 1: if you're just a pure middle linebacker, they're not going

952
00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:55,440
Speaker 1: to pay you as a sixty snap a game starter

953
00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:59,640
Speaker 1: because you're coming out on right, which gets us to

954
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:04,600
Speaker 1: jay Ron Curse. You know, can they resign him? It

955
00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:08,560
Speaker 1: sounds like he's not getting a lot of action, and

956
00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:11,240
Speaker 1: it sounds like he's kind of mad about it. He

957
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:13,480
Speaker 1: should be. This guy should have been the Pro Bowl

958
00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:16,959
Speaker 1: because he played awfully well, yes, he did in his role.

959
00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:19,520
Speaker 1: Now maybe other teams say, well, we're not playing that

960
00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:22,360
Speaker 1: type of this kid can but you can find a

961
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:25,960
Speaker 1: spot for him. Right, he's a strong safety. Okay, if

962
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:27,840
Speaker 1: you want to look at him as just a strong safety,

963
00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:29,600
Speaker 1: then he's one of the best at strong safeties in

964
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:34,040
Speaker 1: the NFL period. And so the Cowboys did resign Hooker,

965
00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:37,120
Speaker 1: but it was a very cap friendly deal by the

966
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:41,400
Speaker 1: way it was. It was two years, seven million, but

967
00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:44,880
Speaker 1: he only got one point seven million of assigning bonus

968
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 1: and his cap. He's looking at these numbers. He only

969
00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:58,920
Speaker 1: got up jumped. He's got a one point three million

970
00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 1: dollars based salaries. It was cap hit the first year

971
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,480
Speaker 1: two and a half million. So if you get a

972
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:09,680
Speaker 1: starting if you get a starting safety for that and

973
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:13,960
Speaker 1: you still have Donovan Wilson. But the role Curse played

974
01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:17,920
Speaker 1: was part safety but part linebacker. Right difference that's the

975
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:20,480
Speaker 1: and Wilson can't do that, and they would like to

976
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:24,760
Speaker 1: have him back, but again it comes down to what's

977
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 1: somebody else going off and really on, like on Layton

978
01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:30,240
Speaker 1: and all these lines. The market hasn't been set for

979
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 1: those inside linebackers yet and when Wagner is gonna set anna, Yeah,

980
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:38,600
Speaker 1: people are waiting to see because there are some linebackers

981
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 1: out there, Rashaun Evans from Tennessee, Dante High Towers out there. Um,

982
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:51,360
Speaker 1: somebody just got signed. Miles Jack. Yeah, Miles Jack got

983
01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:58,880
Speaker 1: two years? Did he get to year sixteen million from Pittsburgh?

984
01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:01,760
Speaker 1: From Pittsburgh? Yeah? Right, and he was a cap casualty

985
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,200
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville and so they let him go and then

986
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:08,160
Speaker 1: he signed quickly with Yeah, yeah, he had probably you

987
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,640
Speaker 1: go back to that was the two thousand and sixteen

988
01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:14,200
Speaker 1: draft and the Cowboys had a decision to make Jalen

989
01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:17,000
Speaker 1: Smith or Miles Jack both coming off injuries. You remember,

990
01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:19,720
Speaker 1: Jason Garrett talked to us right after that draft, and

991
01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:24,480
Speaker 1: the medicals that they had on Jalen was that they

992
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:28,120
Speaker 1: felt like that he the knee injury he had, he'd

993
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:31,080
Speaker 1: be able to come back from and have a longer career.

994
01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:34,720
Speaker 1: Than the Miles Jack knee injury from back then. So

995
01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:38,880
Speaker 1: the other two linebackers that have signed UM were Jordan

996
01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:43,320
Speaker 1: Hicks he got two year ten million with Minnesota with Minnesota,

997
01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:45,800
Speaker 1: and the other one was Orin Berks, who was a

998
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:50,000
Speaker 1: green year signed with San Francisco. These guys two years,

999
01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:52,680
Speaker 1: five minutes. Jordan Hicks had a nice year with Arizona. Yes,

1000
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:56,840
Speaker 1: so you're talking some very affordable numbers. Yeah, if that's

1001
01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:00,440
Speaker 1: the one thing inside linebackers typically don't get that much,

1002
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:02,880
Speaker 1: you know, and Wagner brings you something different, you know,

1003
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:08,160
Speaker 1: well peg and leadership, leadership and all that stuff which

1004
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:11,080
Speaker 1: they can use. I mean, that's the other thing they lose.

1005
01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:15,000
Speaker 1: By the way, I didn't bring it up with Cooper,

1006
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:19,040
Speaker 1: like is Cede Lamb like the leader of the wide

1007
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:22,480
Speaker 1: receiver group. I don't know how much he says. I

1008
01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:26,200
Speaker 1: know Michael Gallup didn't say much. How much was Cooper? Oh?

1009
01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:30,960
Speaker 1: I think he commanded some attention in committed respect in

1010
01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:34,040
Speaker 1: his way. Yeah, I think he was a pretty good leader.

1011
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:37,520
Speaker 1: And you know, maybe in his third year, CD steps

1012
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:39,840
Speaker 1: up and you know kind of well, and the other

1013
01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:43,440
Speaker 1: part of that is if Cooper, who is the he

1014
01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:45,600
Speaker 1: wasn't a krusty veteran, but he had been in the

1015
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 1: league along a lot longer than those other wide receivers.

1016
01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:52,120
Speaker 1: They are all going to because they respect him. He's

1017
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:56,280
Speaker 1: now now we see what kind of leaders the other

1018
01:02:56,440 --> 01:02:59,120
Speaker 1: guys can be because because the big dogs out of

1019
01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:01,800
Speaker 1: the room. Now, we never got to the kicking situation.

1020
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:05,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right, at least the punter as Johnny

1021
01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,200
Speaker 1: Hecker signed here yet, I don't think so. But I mean,

1022
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:10,640
Speaker 1: how much does he want compared to what somebody's going

1023
01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:15,360
Speaker 1: to offer. Brian Anger, I'm a miss Anger. I'm gonna

1024
01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:17,840
Speaker 1: miss him, I promise you. That is out. That was

1025
01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:21,280
Speaker 1: out twelfth defensive But they got the deep snapper resigned.

1026
01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:24,760
Speaker 1: That's Jake McQuaid. Just don't know who he's snapping to. Yeah,

1027
01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:29,959
Speaker 1: now that was out twelfth defensive player. Anger. He set

1028
01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:32,720
Speaker 1: us up really well. I feel position. It was pretty

1029
01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:35,760
Speaker 1: darn consistent. He was. He was, And that's a thing

1030
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,439
Speaker 1: that you know, the kicking situation. If you look back,

1031
01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:43,600
Speaker 1: it had always been very consistent, right, LP Latticer, Dan Bailey,

1032
01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:46,520
Speaker 1: Chris Joke, that stuff for granted, Right, Okay, we as

1033
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:50,080
Speaker 1: we close it out, who's the who's one guy that

1034
01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:53,120
Speaker 1: you'd like to see the Cowboys sign in the next

1035
01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:55,560
Speaker 1: week before we can vean again, do you have one

1036
01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 1: player that you would like to see them sign. It

1037
01:03:57,680 --> 01:03:59,520
Speaker 1: can be, it can be. It doesn't have to be

1038
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:03,120
Speaker 1: the the highest dollar figure or I mean, it can

1039
01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:05,200
Speaker 1: be a kicker, it can or whatever. It could be

1040
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,200
Speaker 1: a putter, he can be Brian Inger, he could be

1041
01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:12,120
Speaker 1: a guard Jon they have to say they have to

1042
01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:15,920
Speaker 1: sign him. Well, the one that they absolutely have to

1043
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:20,200
Speaker 1: sign just to cover themselves as Dorian's armstrong at defense.

1044
01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:22,280
Speaker 1: And that's close, right, yeah, I think so, Yeah, that's

1045
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 1: real close. Now. If I got a wish list, I'd

1046
01:04:25,200 --> 01:04:27,960
Speaker 1: love to see Bobby at Wagner. That's my guy. If

1047
01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:31,520
Speaker 1: if they could, if they can afford everybody, see everybody's like, oh,

1048
01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:33,640
Speaker 1: they gotta get this guy. They gotta get You gotta

1049
01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:35,880
Speaker 1: be able to afford them, and not only afford them

1050
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:39,800
Speaker 1: for twenty twenty two, but twenty twenty three, twenty twenty four,

1051
01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:44,680
Speaker 1: because they've ran out of adding voidable years to Dak

1052
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 1: Prescott's contract right and Zach right, and next year that

1053
01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:54,000
Speaker 1: contract's going up to double digits into his cap charge

1054
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:56,400
Speaker 1: is going to be about thirty million dollars. But then

1055
01:04:56,720 --> 01:04:59,800
Speaker 1: the new the new TV contract, and hopefully that absorbed

1056
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:03,560
Speaker 1: allows you to absorb some. So yeah, so you've got

1057
01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:06,640
