Well, we'll talk a little bit 30 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: more about WrestleMania coming up here in a little bit. 31 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: But of course that presented by Tostitos, America's chip for 32 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: America's team. We have got way too much to talk about. 33 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: Free agency is around the corner. By the time we 34 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 1: record next week, the legal tampering period will have already 35 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: been open. We'll be getting into everything going on there. 36 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: Today is the tag deadline, so there's been some transitions, 37 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,119 Speaker 1: some franchise tag talk thrown around in the league. Specifically 38 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: when it comes to the Thuse Cowboys. There's a certain 39 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: tight end. That looks like he's on his way to 40 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: the it's franchise tag. It is done. It's done, Dalton 41 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: Schultz franchise tagged by the Dallas Cowboys. Rob, what are 42 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: the details on that? One ten point eight million for 43 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: one year? Unless unless, and and and what they would 44 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 1: rather do, my toss is go ahead. What you thought 45 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: that was a bump rut there? Rob, to go first, 46 00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: and then we'll promise what you said, unless, well, unless 47 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: they get a long term deal done with him before July. 48 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: So and honestly, that would probably be ideal if they 49 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: want to keep him around long term. They definitely want 50 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: him for this year, could lower his tag number. I mean, 51 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: think of what they did with Dak last year. Dak's 52 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 1: base salary after the deal he got record one sixty 53 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: million was like two and a half million because you 54 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: could just manipulate the cap and to all that. So 55 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 1: you're talking about it, they want to create all the space. 56 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 1: That would be ideal to do that, But I don't 57 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: know if they would get something like that done before 58 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: next week. But look, hey, it prevents them from like 59 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: starting over at tight end right now because they've got 60 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: a lot of problems or question marks at that position. 61 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: There's a ton of question marks. We're gonna talk about it. 62 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: But Isaiah, what is your reaction? Why why the mic 63 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: toss when tagging Dalton Scholtz. First of all, congrats to Schultz. 64 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: He earned it here. He worked his butt off. He 65 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: put him paid either way. He was gonna get paid 66 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: either way. He put himself in a position and make 67 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: some money. And I'm an advocate for any player getting 68 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: a money right because I understand how brutal, how how 69 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: uh what's the word I can say? Um? Cutthroat? Yeah, 70 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: very cutthroat, very much so this league can be. So 71 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: congrats to you. On the other end of this, I 72 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: personally don't believe he's dominant enough of a tight end 73 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: to warrant this. I believe that this franchise tag is 74 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: coming out of a necessity instead of more so of 75 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: somebody that they really really want because of their impact 76 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: on the team and on the game. I truly believe 77 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: that they are just like, ah, we don't want to 78 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: start over with the tight end. To your point, we 79 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: Jarwin has some injuries still again, and you know we 80 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: need to solidify somebody that knows our system, that we 81 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: that Dad can rely on and that's dependable and it 82 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: can do all the things that we ask not necessarily 83 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: franchise in the sense that you would typically see it 84 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: trying to secure a dominant player that you know is 85 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: going to leave you. You got more, There's always more 86 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: in the tank because I feel like there's more. I'm 87 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 1: working on that, all right. I'm trying to be better. 88 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: I'm trying to keep going. No, you know what the 89 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 1: thing is in the situation with Dalton Shows is he's 90 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: playing musical chairs by himself right now in the tight 91 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 1: end room exactly. There's no one else left. There's no 92 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: one I mean, and look, man, you know, prayers up 93 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: for my Blake Jarwin, who They don't know what the 94 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: extent of this hip injury is or what it could be, 95 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: but it does sound significant. It doesn't sound like he's 96 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: going to be back at the start of the season. 97 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: So what do you do when you need a tight end? Now, 98 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: a lot of people want to go into free agency 99 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: or even into the draft, and there are gonna be 100 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: a few tight ends to pick from, but will they 101 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: be there? You don't know that. So I think the 102 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: safe bet, even for the money, is to go Dalton 103 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: shots and let's go a step further because I think 104 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: we love to talk statistics when it works against the player, 105 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: but what about when it works with the player top 106 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: three in his position? So don't talk down on the 107 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: man because you can see there are those blaring weaknesses, 108 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: oh dome block. But he can catch him run, That's 109 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: what he can do. He could catch him run. And 110 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,679 Speaker 1: he's shown himself in twenty twenty and even twenty twenty 111 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 1: one he backdoored with another solid performance. Come on, he 112 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: got his money. He did it the way that all 113 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 1: professional athletes. How you point to it. You know the business, 114 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: and you know this guy did what he had to 115 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: do to obviously get franchise tag, get ten million dollars. 116 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: But I'm sure the Dallas Cowboys are wanted to work 117 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: towards a long term deal. Does it make you feel 118 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: any better the fact that Blake Jarwin is such a 119 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: big question mark because going into this offseason, I mean, 120 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: we had this conversation there was a chance that they 121 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: gave the Reins back over to what they thought was 122 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: tight end one when they signed him, and that's Blake Jarwin. 123 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: There was a chance they were going to give him 124 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: the Reins say hey, get back healthy. We want you 125 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 1: to move forward. Thank you for everything you've done, Dalton. 126 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 1: Go get your money, Go get it elsewhere, go figure 127 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: it out. Then as soon as really the hip injury 128 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,919 Speaker 1: started coming out, things started surfacing with Dalton or excuse me, 129 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: with h Blake Jarwin. Dalton Schultz became a much more 130 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: impactful priority going into free agency. So they got him 131 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: out of the way, got him done, and like Rob said, 132 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: there's a chance that they sign a long term deal. 133 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: They can take that tag off and then all of 134 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: a sudden, he's not playing on that that money, and 135 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: it's a it's a lesser cap it. There's there's ways 136 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: to finagle that, for sure. But at the same time, 137 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: I get your frustration because you want to see other 138 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: guys brought back. You want to see other guys signed. 139 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper, Tank Lawrence. We'll get to that in a 140 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: moment as well. But Dalton Schultz is the name that 141 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: you're stuck with, and it may have been a bigger 142 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: necessity than you had originally thought. That's what That's what 143 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: I'm saying. I think this is a necessity tag instead 144 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: of a tag of somebody who was just like, oh, 145 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: we just can't let that person go. I don't know. 146 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: I think they. I think they want to get a 147 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: long term deal done with him, like I think. I 148 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: think they look at it like, and you can debate 149 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: the distribution of passes in this offense, and we're going 150 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: to get into Amari Cooper and his status. But I 151 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: do think they look at it like he has emerged 152 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: as a major trust option for Dak Prescott. Now, now, 153 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: is he is he at all around tight end at 154 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: this point? No, I don't. I don't think so. I 155 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: think he's still I think he's gotten better, but I 156 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: think his biggest skill set is past receiving, right, So 157 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: you got to team him, I think, with another guy 158 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: and we'll see who it's gonna be. Jeremy Sprinkles a 159 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: free agent. They need another blocking tight end. I tick 160 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: in this room. But I guess when I think about 161 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: a Franchi and I agree, I totally agree with you, 162 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna keep coming back. I'm gonna keep coming 163 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 1: back to the necessity word, right. I think this is 164 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: a necessity tag and it's to buy them time, right, 165 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 1: which is fully at their disposal understanding. Look, when I 166 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: think a franchise tag I'm not thinking about your fourth, fifth, sixth, best, 167 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: you know, most dangerous option on that side of the ball. 168 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 1: That's That's not what I'm thinking. That's not what you 169 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: think about. When you think about somebody who's franchise today, 170 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: you think about somebody who is absolutely dominant that when 171 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: you face the opponent, they circle that personal like, hey, 172 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: you better not yeah you bring out. Let that person 173 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: get off right because you're getting paid what average of 174 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: the top five at their position? Is that what it is? Yeah? 175 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 1: At ten point, it's the second lowest tag figure. So 176 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,079 Speaker 1: they're not just telling on him. But what do you 177 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: I mean, what do you think you think he's where 178 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: is he as an all around tight end? You know this, guys, 179 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: He's not up there for me. See I disagree. Okay, 180 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: I think it's better than it was when he came 181 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: in the league. Look progress, Travis Kelsey, Okay, George Kittle 182 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: cool Hunter, Henry rob Gun cows better. He's better than 183 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: Hunter Henry right now, Dallas Goddard better than Goddard, Giseecki 184 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: Waller how better than Gazecki better? Wawler got hurt better 185 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: than Gasecki, Zach Arns easy money. Look at them. Look 186 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: at the stats. I'm looking at the listen, listen down 187 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: the stretch list the most consistent players on the Dallas 188 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys list, the most consistent guys. I hear you get 189 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to disagree with you, because because 190 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: most consistent, we can take that sense. We can take 191 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: that same argument and flip it on his head and say, 192 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: what about a Marii Cooper. He wasn't just because they 193 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: chose not to throw him the ball. So I'm sorry 194 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: to say, but but if you have a Gasecki and 195 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: you have a Dalton Schultz, I'm taking Geisecki. Wow, he's 196 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: more of a threat at that position. In my eyes, 197 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: he's somebody I get the ball to when I say 198 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: he's gonna make a hell of a play, not somebody 199 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: that I can say, hey, run to this spot. There's 200 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: a lot of guys I could do that with and 201 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: I don't. I'm not downplaying what Dalton shows effect on 202 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: this team is the value is what he is to 203 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: this team with this organization, which is high for this team. 204 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: Absolutely helps that. But that doesn't mean that doesn't make 205 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: him a dominant player. I'm not saying he's a dominant player. 206 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying, but that's rather than Gase, he's not a 207 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: dominant player. I feel like is a threat. I would circle. 208 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: Giseki asked you better have your eye on that you're 209 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,599 Speaker 1: saying is by definition when you get the franchise you 210 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: are and no one is circling Dalton Schultz's name when 211 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: they are getting ready to play the DEA absolutely think 212 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: I do. When you face this office, if you're a 213 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator, you're coming up again, Dallas Coup. Just want 214 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: you to beat the court. I want you to be 215 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: dan quinn Inch. That's fine, dan Quinnish, Okay, all right, 216 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: you're dan QUINNI is today. I need you to be 217 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: dan Quinnish and Steppa and you're watching. If you do, 218 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: and you're coming up against Dallas Cowboys, I need you 219 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: to circle to top three threats on their offense, Dallas Cowboys. 220 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 1: I'm talking about twenty two. I'm talking about when you 221 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: face a Dallas Cowboys based upon the current roster, who 222 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: are you circling as don't let them get off? It 223 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: would be Ceedee Lamb and a Marie Cooper on this 224 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: current roster, Dalton Schultz would be an easy third right there, 225 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: right now here's the other He's not in that conversation 226 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: for me at the moment, over those three guys and 227 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: the numbers tell healthy all the way through. That's different. 228 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: Is he healthy? I don't. He wasn't to get in 229 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: a year. He definitely wasn't at the last twelve weeks 230 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: we were getting here. We talking about the roster stars. 231 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: When the seasons in twenty twenty two, then well then 232 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper probably isn't gonna be on the roster and 233 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 1: then it's Ceedee Lamb and Dalton Schultz. So old Dalty 234 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: was one catch behind Ceedee Lamb for the team lead 235 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: seventy eight eight h eight yardage, tied a Mari with 236 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: eight touchdown catches for the team. And it's a choice. 237 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: It's a choice. It's a choice that they made eight 238 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: times successfully. I'm not disagreeing with that, but I'm saying 239 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: there are more dominant I am not. I'm saying that 240 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: everybody on his team is a professional athlete, sure, right, 241 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: And based upon the system, you can make a professional 242 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: athlete more of a threat than you could in other systems. 243 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: Basically based upon this system, right, Cordelle Patterson perfect example, 244 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 1: how much of a threat. Was he read in first 245 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: half of his career, not much. He was very he 246 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: was negative to he was he was subject to just 247 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: being a return man. But you put him in a 248 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: right system. Now all of a sudden, he's freaking dominanting 249 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 1: you better have him on your roster in that system. 250 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: In that system right didn't mean that he wasn't capable 251 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: of doing those things before. It just means that they 252 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: put him into proper situations, in the proper system and 253 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: utilize his gifts and talents. I think you could do 254 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: that with any professional athlete, depending on this system that 255 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: they're in now. Going back to Dan Quinnish, when you 256 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: come up against the Dallas Cowboys are twenty twenty one 257 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 1: healthy Dallas Cowboys, Week one against Temp Bay Buccaneers, you 258 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: are circling a Marii Cooper. You're circling deck Prescott, You're 259 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: circling Ezekiel Elliott, You're circling Gallup, You're circling you know 260 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,959 Speaker 1: everybody Dalton is not in the top three year that 261 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: you're circling. Here's where the disconnect is. Here's where the disconnect. 262 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: You're naming premium positions, you're naming quarterback wide receiver, running back, 263 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: tight end. Even though yes, there are the Mark Andrews, 264 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,199 Speaker 1: the Travis Kelsey's, the Kyle Pitts George Kittles of the world, 265 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: there are those guys that are that top echelon. Dalton 266 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: Schultz is right there on the back end of that. 267 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's better than those guys, but he's 268 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: a top five, top six seven player in the NFL 269 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: at his position. The perception is not the reality. Is 270 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: what you both of are arguing, right we have we 271 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 1: both have valuable points, you know, And so he just 272 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: said the top six, top seven he is. Damn guys, 273 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: is statistics. Here's the thing. It's not even just statistic. 274 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: The statstop says right now, the stays five. Guy, I'm 275 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: not talking about just stats. I'm talking about consistency, red 276 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: zone threat and put And you know as well as 277 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: I do, I was on his blocking ability and his 278 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: motor all the way through the season. I was as 279 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: critical as anybody with Dalton Schultz. And you can you 280 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: remember that as we had conversations just like this negatively 281 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: about Dalton Schultz. That doesn't devalue what he means to 282 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: this team and how good he ranks compared to other 283 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: guys in the NFL. Here's the other side of two. 284 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: And we won't know the answer now because he's they've 285 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: got his rights. But if they might have been concerned, 286 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: they probably were concerned about him hitting the open market, 287 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: because he would have been gone, yeah, well okay. Then 288 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: then if he if they were concerned about him getting 289 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: more than eleven million a year, I don't think that, 290 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: well you're not. You're not that was in their mind. 291 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: We'll never know that. I guarantee that was concern. But 292 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: I can't stand behind this top six or seven guys. 293 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: I hear his stats. They see the top tight end 294 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: though that's on the open market absolutely all, if all 295 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: the tight ends were free agents. Right now, you're saying 296 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: Dalton Schortz is a top six guy that you're grabbing. Yes, 297 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: stopped this happening, stopped his Teke Temma Bay Buccaneers has 298 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: two guys that you go grab right now that I 299 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: would choose before. Your point is he's not a guy 300 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: that you have. He's not a guy that you have 301 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: to game plan for. That's basically saying you wouldn't take 302 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: Howard getting but he's not getting paid twenty million a year. 303 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: That's that's Amari Cooper month. There you go. Dalton Schultz 304 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: is getting roughly half of that for once you take Howard. Yes, 305 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: easy money. What is oj Howard done? What has he done? 306 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: It's not about what he's done, is about what they're 307 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: capable of. It about what he's Oh man, I don't know, Man, 308 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: I look at it. I look at it like it's 309 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: kind of like the going rate for a guy that's 310 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 1: producing pro bowlish. Get your money, get your money. He 311 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: is being utilized by the Dallas Cowboys the proper way. Absolutely, 312 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: they're maximizing what they can get out of Dalton's Schultz. 313 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: Is he a premiere tight end in this league? I 314 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: can't stand on on amounted and say that. I can't. 315 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: Is he valuable to the Dallas Cowboys? Absolutely? Is he 316 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: a second tier tight end, second tier, second tier, second 317 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: dream tight end, elite. I'm not throwing him with the Kittles, 318 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: the Kelsey's, the Andrews, those guys. I'm Gronkowski's. And I 319 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: don't think Gronk's there anymore. I don't he was four 320 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: years ago, maybe two years ago he wasn't. He's not there, 321 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 1: And I can't show I can't do this. Oh no, no, 322 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: that's okay, come on, just okay, it's okay, he's making 323 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: his point. No, but that's the thing. Okay, even if 324 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: you wanted to throw Gronkowski in there, there's four of 325 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: them there, four tight ends. There is he that second tier? 326 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: Is he that stepped down from those guys? Yes, yes, 327 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: he's right. Well, he's right there, he's right there, tien 328 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: million dollars, tim million dollars franchise tag and the highest 329 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: paid basically was it you take the figure from the 330 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: highest paid and top five and average top Yeah, there 331 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: it is. And so look, it's it behooves the organization 332 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: to get along, and it's it's kind of it's kind 333 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: of it's kind of like quarterback contracts that continue to 334 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: go up. I mean, I'm looking at Travis Kelsey's contract 335 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: right now. He signed a four year, fifty seven million 336 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: dollars deal. That's an average of fourteen and type of 337 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: money we're talking about here, Well, it's getting close, but 338 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: but it's but the contracts are just gonna keep going 339 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: up for this position. So I don't know, I don't 340 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: really have that much of a problem with it, because also, 341 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: what what other option do you have right now, Like 342 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:11,719 Speaker 1: you're gonna take it tight in the first round. Now, 343 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: I've got enough other problems. And I'm not saying that 344 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: I have a problem with it. I'm just sure, Yeah, 345 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with absolutely not a problem 346 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,719 Speaker 1: with it. I'm just saying that he's not a franchise 347 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: tag ish player. But they're doing it out of necessity, 348 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: that they're doing it out of necessity, there's much he's 349 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 1: the last guy. Absolutely, Hey, they're doing at necessity. You 350 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: got Sean mccoughting on the practice spot. Yeah, sprinkle can 351 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 1: be bad. You gotta do it or else you're you're 352 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 1: trapped in free agency hail and also the draft and 353 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 1: you're not gonna be able to sign anybody. You wouldn't 354 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: want to draft one of these guys. And I don't 355 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 1: have a first round grade on a tight end at all. 356 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: And I honestly don't have a second round grade on 357 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: the tight end. I had the back hat. I hear 358 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,440 Speaker 1: what you're saying, I say, I do, I do. I 359 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: don't know if I'm listening it is to hear listen 360 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,479 Speaker 1: thing with Jimmy. But but I will say, like as 361 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: you as you go through the rosters. As you go 362 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 1: through the rosters of the league and you look at 363 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: the teams, most teams you can start. Even though his 364 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: stats are up, I get it all right, he was 365 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: very successful in this system. Even though he was successful, 366 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: He's still not a guy that I'm worried about. He's 367 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: not a guy I'm worried about. As you go down 368 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: to rosters and all these teams, most of these teams 369 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 1: have a guy that, yeah, you better keep your eye 370 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: on that you have. Would you have less of a 371 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,400 Speaker 1: problem with it if you felt like Amari was gonna 372 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: be back, Like if you're because are you looking at 373 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: it partly like, well, Amar's leaving, they're keeping, They're keeping Dalton. 374 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: I think if you combine those two things, it's like, 375 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I give him credit because he is. 376 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: He has made himself absolutely a very good player. I 377 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: mean a fourth round pick who frankly his rookie training camp, 378 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 1: I'm out there an ox hard and you could see 379 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: wasn't strong enough point of attack guy. And he's gotten 380 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: better in that regard. But he's mainly he has emerged 381 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: as a very trusted option for DAK and that's important. 382 00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: Makes makes things easier for Dak. He was extremely concern 383 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: all the way throughout, and honestly, anything we talk about 384 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: throughout this entire off season is most likely going to 385 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: be frustrating. I mean that's kind of that's the fact 386 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: of the matter of what this off season is going 387 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: to be. It's not all sunshine and rainbows in Frisco, right, 388 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 1: no way, not even a little bit. Dalton Shultz coming back, 389 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: don't get me Don't get me wrong. They already traded 390 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: Chris Stops out of the Mavericks and Unicorn's gone to goodness, 391 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: so there's still plenty of things to keep on the table. 392 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: Another thing that happened talking about options though Dak Prescott 393 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: Zach Martin restructuring their contract. That frees up a significant 394 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: amount of cap, doesn't it. Yeah, about fifteen for Dak, 395 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: seven ish for Zach, So twenty two million freed up roughly. 396 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 1: So we are paying a grip for our right guard 397 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: he should be. Yeah, honestly, yeah, I mean, I mean, 398 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: if you just look around the league and what right 399 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 1: guards are making, our right guard is man. He is 400 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: backing up the U haul he should Yeah, the Prinks truck. 401 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: We've shown that. H He's shown that assistantly throughout though 402 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,439 Speaker 1: they obviously have a lot of faith in him too. 403 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: I think they've restructured his contract three straight years now. 404 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 1: He's thirty one. I mean, he's getting into on towards 405 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: his mid thirties, and he's had some injuries, but I 406 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: mean he's about as steady as any player in the 407 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 1: National Football League, absolutely, and Todd Archer reported part of 408 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 1: this is that they've added a couple avoidable deals onto. 409 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: You know, they just cap massaging, So massaging kicking the 410 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,239 Speaker 1: can down the road is kind of what's happening there 411 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 1: the Steel Toes. When we come back on Talking Cowboys, 412 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: Why is kicking the can down the road not an 413 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: option for guys like Amari Cooper DeMarcus Lawrence and what's 414 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: going on with rumors surrounding those two guys and what 415 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 1: could be happening over the next couple of weeks. And 416 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: we are also going to talk about some of the 417 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 1: free agents around the league when we come back on 418 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 1: Talking Cowboys.

No tag for Randy Gregory, 483 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence reports out there that he was asked to 484 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: take a pay cut and ultimately declined, so there's question 485 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:47,479 Speaker 1: marks around his future with the team.

So Rob, where 490 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: does that leave you in terms of this Cowboys off season? 491 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 1: Doesn't seem like it's in. I mean, outside of the 492 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 1: Schultz deal and maybe getting Michael Gallop back, it's kind 493 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: of it's kind of a bad off season right now. 494 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: We tried to warn everybody, we tried it was good 495 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: the last few weeks that like they had a lot 496 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: of they have a lot of tough decisions to make 497 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: because of the cap and by the way you and 498 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: Dave did a great job up there. I'm sorry I 499 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: could join you. Yeah we missed you up there, but yeah, 500 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: I mean look for Tank. Stephen Jones was asked the 501 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,479 Speaker 1: question up there. He was asked about tanking a Mari 502 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 1: and he didn't want to speak specifically to those guys. 503 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: Like he said, it was too early to say committed 504 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: to the non comment. Yes, so it's too early to 505 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: say about a Mari status for this season. Obviously that's 506 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,719 Speaker 1: you know, it's on the table that he's not going 507 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: to be back. I would I think you would say 508 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: that about Tank as well. He said, Look, with big contracts, 509 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: you have to look at is the value there. We've 510 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 1: discussed that, right. I think with Tank, he's making i 511 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: think nineteen million set for this season. You have to 512 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: look at that value. And it doesn't mean he's not 513 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 1: a very very good player and doesn't add something, but 514 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: you've got to make the numbers work, and that's really 515 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: what it comes down to. That's what it comes down 516 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: to for a Mari as well. And if there was 517 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: a precursor to a Mari if he's not back, there 518 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: was foreshadowing for that last year because they we've talked 519 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: about restructures. At the end of the last segment, they 520 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: did not touch his contract. They decided, look, well we're 521 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: going to keep it the way it is. They restructure 522 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: other guys. I think three offensive linemen maybe that was 523 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: a couple years ago, not a Mari's, and so it 524 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 1: makes for a cleaner cut if that's what they want 525 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: to do this offseason. Is that why they're not kicking 526 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: the can down the road with a Mari Because I 527 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,199 Speaker 1: mean that's a question that I've been asked, is if 528 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 1: they can do it with Zach Martin, if they can 529 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: do it with Dak Prescott, why is a Mari not 530 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: on that top of the list of trying to move 531 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: it down the road. Is it just a lesser of 532 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: the evils at the moment in terms of just trying 533 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 1: to pick and choose. I don't. I don't think it's 534 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: as simple as well he's not. I mean, nobody can 535 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: say they're better without him next season. But again, tough 536 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 1: contract decisions you have to in the salary cap era, 537 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: you got to look at it like, can we pay 538 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: all three guys eventually Ceedie Lambs eventually going to get 539 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: his money, So do you have to look at it 540 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: long term. I think so, I think you have to 541 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: look at it long term and say we can't pay 542 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 1: what we think are two one receivers at one At 543 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 1: some point we're gonna have to decide that's what they're 544 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: trying to do. Right now, that would overlap the last 545 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: year of a Mari's deal, right when Ceed would probably 546 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: start having those conversations probably now he's under contract until 547 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 1: after a Mari's contract is done three more years if 548 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 1: you give him the fifth year. Yeah, so I'm assuming 549 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 1: with that fifth year option, somewhere around there is when 550 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 1: you're gonna started talking about Ceede Lamb's contract. So there's 551 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: a chance there for overlap. So that makes sense on 552 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: way why maybe they don't want to kick that salary 553 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 1: cap hip all the way down there. But I mean 554 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: it's frustrating because either way, like Rob said, you're not 555 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: getting better without those two guys. I mean, playing simple, 556 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: you're probably not a better football team. I think we 557 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: said it last week we had the show. I try 558 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: to give everybody heads up that they're gonna point the 559 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: finger at Mary Cooper and say that you know you're 560 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: not you're not providing enough, you know, stats and you're 561 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: not providing enough on the field to justify your twenty 562 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 1: million dollars per year, even if we are the reason 563 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: why you're not getting the ball. So you're gonna say 564 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: bye bye to that, Mary Cooper most likely. And then 565 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: we also talked about d Law how they were going 566 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: to ask him. I try to everybody, they're gonna ask 567 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,239 Speaker 1: him to take a pay cup. What did I say 568 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: that He gonna say hell to the no, he said, So, 569 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: I mean, this is what happens. So now you're in 570 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: a position where you may lose both guys because now 571 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: you've already pissed off d Law and have you pissed 572 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: him off? So now you're in a situation it's like, 573 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: can we even bring him back into the same environment 574 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: with him now being aggravated? You have to turn your 575 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 1: attenationory for Andy Gregory. Oh, obviously he's not getting tagged. 576 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: I don't think we thought that he was gonna get tagged, 577 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 1: but I think that they have to find a way 578 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: to secure him as well. So it's unfortunate. I'm okay 579 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: with them, you know, losing d Law. I'm not okay 580 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: with him losing Coop. Yeah, that's just my stance. I 581 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: understand that they are both there. They both bring a 582 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: lot of value, but I consider one to be a 583 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: dominant player, and I consider one to be a really 584 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: good player. DeMarcus Lawrence. I mean, like you said, if 585 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: he's a little disgruntled, if he's not happy with the 586 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: ask for a restructure or where they lie right now? 587 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: And he said in public, he said that he wants 588 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: to be a cowboy for life. But if they if 589 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: they cut him pre June one, you're still only saving 590 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: eight million dollars. And if both with him and Amari, 591 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: you're under the cap, if you cut him posts June one, 592 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: then you're saving a lot more money. Ultimately, I think 593 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: you're saving close to twenty million, almost nineteen million, I 594 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: believe is what it is. And you're eleven million under 595 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: the cap at that point. So is it a waiting 596 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: game or are we going to see this soon? Because 597 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: don't you have to get under that cap number within 598 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 1: a certain amount of weeks from where we are right now? 599 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: You gotta get into the cap by next Wednesday. Yeah, 600 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: so start of the new league here, so it's got 601 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: to happen before then, right, Yeah, Well, I don't I 602 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: don't know what happens here because I think it's tied. 603 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: Isaiah kind of hit on it. I think it's tied, 604 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: you know, as Randy Gregory back, because I've been saying 605 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson is a guy at the receiver position where 606 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: I think we might be like, whoa this deal he's 607 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: getting from somebody else and he's gone. Dorn's Armstrong could 608 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: be in the same boat next week, like from another team. 609 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: So where is your where's your defensive end depth chart 610 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: right now? And do you need tang? I mean, I go, 611 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: I don't think they're better without him, but I just 612 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: don't know financially can they make it work. What I 613 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: want to offer up to this whole argument about Amara 614 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: Cooper is do you think that the Dallas Cowboys will 615 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: ever have a top five paid wide receiver in Kellen 616 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: Moore's offense? Kelly Moore is and I've alluded and teased 617 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: this quite a bit, that he is a guy or 618 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator that strikes me as a guy that believes 619 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: in his system, that calls plays for the system and 620 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: not for players. And that's what it is maddening in 621 00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: this situation when you start asking and said, well, how 622 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: are you better when you get rid of are you 623 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: cut a supposed number one receiver? Well, if the players 624 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: are not designed to go your way, and if you 625 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: don't take advantage of the scheme that the defense is 626 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: playing to get your lead dog the ball, then a 627 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: lot of hell am I going to continue to play 628 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 1: guys that come here twenty million dollars? And that's why 629 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: I ask when you say that of our CD getting 630 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: this deal, will he because I think what the Cowboys 631 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: front office is looking at is like, why would we 632 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: pay you twenty million dollars winning the grand scheme of things? 633 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: This is the actual guy that fell in our lap 634 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 1: that can be our number one receiver and we can 635 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: surround him with the talent that we need. I think 636 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: the Cedric Wilson's of the world, those kinds of wide receivers, 637 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: and people are gonna kill me for this, but I'm 638 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: telling you, in this offense, you would feel a lot 639 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: better with Cedric Wilson getting eight hundred and sixty whatever 640 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: yards as it would be Amari Cooper getting eight hundred 641 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: and sixty yards on a twenty million dollar contract. And 642 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: that's I believe that's where we're going in this offense. 643 00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: That's a good point. And you know what, you can 644 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: also ask the question why did they make this Amar 645 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 1: deal in the first place, because that is two years 646 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: ago he signed the deal, right, Kellen Moore was, huh, 647 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: didn't know that was That's true, That's true, But I 648 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: mean Kellen Moore became the OC that year and so 649 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. Man No. Well it also it kind 650 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 1: of reminds me. I'm getting flashbacks to the Rod and 651 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: Marinelli days on the defensive side of the football, where 652 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,959 Speaker 1: it's like, our scheme is where we are. Our scheme 653 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: is what's what We're gonna put our players in the 654 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: right spot because our scheme is this way. Now you 655 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: look at what dan Quinn has done. Part of the 656 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 1: reason why the defense has had a turnaround is because 657 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: he's fit the players, or he's fit the scheme to 658 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: the players, he's fit Michael Parsons, or he's drawn up 659 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: things for Michael Parsons to let him be successful rather 660 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: than put Michael Parsons in what he thinks would be 661 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 1: what he wants to do ultimately, and that's where Kellen 662 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: Moore is trying to figure out where these players are 663 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 1: and if Amari Cooper doesn't fit there, then you're getting 664 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 1: rid of a really good player just for That's what's mad. 665 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: That's what's maddening is that everyone that knows Amark Cooper's 666 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: reputation around the league says, why the hell aren't y'all 667 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: throwing the ball to him on third? And you know 668 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 1: everybody knows that you need a reception, you need you're 669 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: down in the red zone. Why don't you throw it 670 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: to the best option that you have. And they're going 671 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: away from that, maybe throwing something out to a running 672 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: back out of the backfield or to your tight end. 673 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: It doesn't make sense to a lot of people. But 674 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore doesn't call plays that way, not the way 675 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: that you look around, Like, look at Cooper Cup right, 676 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup in and mcvay's offense. What does McVeagh do 677 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: he calls plays for Cooper Cup? You don't say, not 678 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: just during the season when the whole thing was on 679 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: the line, one last drive, h you knew who's getting 680 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: the ball. They knew, everybody know who's getting the ball. 681 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 1: Can't stop it doesn't matter. Yeah, So they're gonna they're 682 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 1: going to be sick. Listen here, they are going to 683 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: be sick to their stomachs if they allow Amari Cooper 684 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,479 Speaker 1: to walk, which most likely he's gonna moon walk up 685 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: out of here, because there's gonna be a young dude 686 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 1: who just re upped over in New Green Bay pastures 687 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: who's gonna say, hmm, I need a number two, right, 688 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 1: and they're gonna grab have no money, No, all right, 689 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: they have no money. All right, he won't end up 690 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: in Green Bay. All right, I'm gonna shoot that down 691 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 1: beforehand because it's not happening. Okay. Here's the other side 692 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 1: of this stuff too, which is, you know, I see 693 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:25,399 Speaker 1: what you're trying to do, but like this, he's your 694 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 1: money in the pocket where he's not going to go 695 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: out to the next team and ask for to say, 696 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,399 Speaker 1: take the league minimum either though. The way the deal 697 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 1: for a Maria was structured, it was almost like a 698 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,759 Speaker 1: two year deal. Yeah, the way it was structured because 699 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: the way they could get out of it. And we'll 700 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 1: see if they get out of it. But the other 701 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: side of it, too is in twenty eighteen, he was 702 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: he's essentially your first round draft pick. Yeah, so after 703 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: a couple of years now made the trade, he's gone, 704 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 1: so and let's go. It would not be a good 705 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: ending there. And here's the other thing about Tank. Tank 706 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: is getting paid nineteen million dollars, and if you're getting 707 00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,839 Speaker 1: paid nineteen million dollars as an edge rusher, you're gonna 708 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,240 Speaker 1: have to have double digit sacks. He hadn't had double 709 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: digit sacks for the Cowboys, and his cap it's even 710 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: bigger than that as cap its twenty seven. So that's 711 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: what I'm saying that that kind of explains itself. And 712 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,919 Speaker 1: especially if you're not willing to take less money, which 713 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 1: I'm obvious I'm with you, Tank. You know, get your money. 714 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 1: Why you can get your money, but the organizations has 715 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 1: a stance on this as well. If you can go 716 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 1: somewhere else and get more than it, okay, you're not 717 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 1: going to acquiesce to the pressure, then you're okay, then 718 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 1: you gotta go because I can get three guys to 719 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: do what you're doing. And talking about Dan Quinn and 720 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: what he realized, Look, I have a young Buzuka that 721 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 1: I can put all over the field, and I can 722 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: also bleed in other players over here. I just think 723 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 1: that in the NFL the tide is changing on guys. 724 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: You get your contract based off of your pass production. 725 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: But if you don't have that competitive edge to after 726 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 1: you get your contract, then you're going to be a casualty. 727 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: And that's and that's an issue because I think it's 728 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: one reason, it's a big reason why they don't sign 729 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: outside free agents, because they feel like they're paying for 730 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 1: what guys used to do and they don't have as much. 731 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 1: They don't have any kind of built in knowledge of 732 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: the player, So that's why they try to resign their 733 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: own guys. But what they're finding in these situations is 734 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: they've resigned these guys and they're not getting the same 735 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: value on the field that they thought they were getting. 736 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 1: And that's that's a problem because that goes against the 737 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 1: style of operation that you have with your money. Yeah, 738 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at even just the comparison's closest 739 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: contract comparison to DeMarcus Lawrence is Aaron Donald. And guess 740 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 1: who gets paid more by a cap salary number, by 741 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 1: a cap hit Lawrence. DeMarcus Lawrence gets paid more than 742 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald in terms of a cap hit. So and 743 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: there's a problem with that too. Aaron Donald probably needs 744 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,320 Speaker 1: to see a bump in his pay that probably a 745 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 1: little bit, But there's that there's that conversation is if 746 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:49,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna pay a guy and he's gonna be a 747 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: twenty seven billion dollar cap hit, you need you need 748 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: that production in quarterback as good as DeMarcus Lawrence's pin. 749 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying I like the idea of him 750 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: not being on the Cowboys. Don't get me wrong here, 751 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 1: but I understand the money side of things. If you're 752 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: gonna have to cut somewhere, that's probably where you're gonna 753 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 1: have to do it. Yeah, Unfortunately, it's a reality that 754 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: you see the Cowboy fan base is completely divided on 755 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 1: what to do here. But why they call it a 756 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 1: cap casualty is because it's not a positive thing. It 757 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 1: is a negative term for a reason because it's not fun. 758 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 1: It's not where you need. None of these things. None 759 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 1: of these things make us better. We understand that though. 760 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 1: I mean, and you look over last season and Stephen 761 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: Jones's interview and Andy he says, look, but twelve and five, 762 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: by a lot of accounts is a successful season. We 763 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 1: didn't get it done because we lost in the first round. 764 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 1: How do you become better after you let these two 765 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: players go? What you got to feel good about? The 766 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: guy that put the whole twenty twenty ones roster together. 767 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 1: That was him, right, So I mean at one end 768 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 1: you want to slap him, but then on the other 769 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 1: end you're like, Okay, you've made you've made good decisions 770 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: up until this point. I trust what you're gonna do 771 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: a twenty twenty two. I just don't think that people 772 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: trust it when you start throwing around names like Cooper 773 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 1: Tank just saying cool, what's going Yeah, well it will, 774 00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 1: it will, and Heckma just said that. I mean, you 775 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 1: said it where we're not a better football team, But 776 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: at some point you got to get under those numbers. 777 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,839 Speaker 1: When we come back on talking Cowboys, we're gonna run 778 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: through the list of Cowboys free agents and give our 779 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: confidence level that they will be back in Dallas. There's 780 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 1: twenty two names in twenty twenty two. One is already back. 781 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: We'll talk about the rest of them when we come 782 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 1: back right after this new Doctor Peppers zero sugar.

Yeah. No, Howard Howard as to say, Oh, 832 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:38,399 Speaker 1: as fun as this is what he's being ghost, he's 833 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:43,600 Speaker 1: a chiller. How am I talking to oja OJ Howard? Boy? Yeah, dude, 834 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: he kills defenses. Bro, Can we just mark this bypasses blaze? 835 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,359 Speaker 1: As frustrating as it is, it's been a fun show. 836 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 1: We've had a lot of fun. We're throwing out all 837 00:41:53,800 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 1: these points. This has been good at frustration. Um, I 838 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,800 Speaker 1: want to run through the list of Cowboys free agents. 839 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 1: Let's go. We're gonna go in order of snap count 840 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: from the twenty twenty one season. Give me a one 841 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 1: through ten, ten being they're back here in Dallas. You're 842 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:15,719 Speaker 1: gonna see them on the field in twenty twenty two 843 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: one being they're gone, They're elsewhere where Where do you 844 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: feel like your predictions lie heading into free agency? Because 845 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,440 Speaker 1: that starts next week, and by the time we record 846 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 1: next week, we may have a pretty good picture of 847 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 1: how this Cowboys team is gonna look, at least heading 848 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 1: into draft weekend in April. So we're gonna start with 849 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: jay Ron Curse safety had eighty eight percent of snaps 850 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 1: this past year. He had only one point one million 851 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 1: on his deal. Where do you think he lies? He's 852 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:51,240 Speaker 1: he gonna be back in Dallas? Heckma Harrison ten ten back. 853 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 1: I think I'm right there with you. What are you thinking? Ron? 854 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 1: I definitely they want him back. I don't you know? Again, 855 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: does he what are the negotiations of Like does he 856 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 1: want to go test? That's the question. What do you 857 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 1: think he's gonna get on an open market like that 858 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,360 Speaker 1: five million? It's very tough because of his history. It 859 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: makes it complicated because you got one one big year 860 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: in a great system. And I think if I'm him, 861 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I'm sticking stay right through. I would 862 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 1: if the money's right. So do you feel like this 863 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: is a case where the guy's more valued than where 864 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 1: he's at right now as opposed to where his value 865 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:29,319 Speaker 1: could lie amongst the league. But with Curses. I mean, 866 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,960 Speaker 1: he's a big safety, can play, concovery, can tackle, he 867 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: can play in the box, be over the top. There's 868 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 1: so many different things he can do. Special teams in 869 00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 1: there too. Dan Quinn is a nickel guy, so I mean, 870 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 1: look at what he got away with by having Jerun 871 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,960 Speaker 1: Curse as the big nickel. So I mean the way 872 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,880 Speaker 1: that these spread offenses are going, they're putting the ball 873 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 1: all over the place, and they're going with those slot 874 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 1: corners because of how dominant these tight ends are, right Yeah, 875 00:43:55,239 --> 00:44:11,879 Speaker 1: and it's putting a lot of guys inward like that. Us. Yeah, dude, 876 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 1: whenever they face O. J. Howard next year in Tampa 877 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: Bay or I guess Blaine Gabbert's gonna light it up 878 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: with OJ Howard, we don't curse whatever. I wonder if 879 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 1: that's in d q's new contract, Like you gotta bring 880 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,800 Speaker 1: back curse, Okay, I'll sign. I'm gonna give it a 881 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,799 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it a six point five, six point five, 882 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 1: super confident six point five. Reason band is because because 883 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,359 Speaker 1: he might get that number as much as he may 884 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,759 Speaker 1: want to go come back to being with deal your money. 885 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,359 Speaker 1: If somebody you only have a small window to make money, 886 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 1: and if a team throws it out there, you gotta 887 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 1: grab it, regardless if you if you want to go 888 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,399 Speaker 1: play in that organization or not. The money's gonna talk. 889 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: I feel like that's gonna be one of the answers 890 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 1: for a lot of these guys. Maybe not for these 891 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 1: next four that I'm gonna throw out there, but if 892 00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,800 Speaker 1: the money is right, is gonna be a question. I 893 00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 1: think they're gonna make it right for for for Curse, 894 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna do what they can to get 895 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 1: out there and resign him. I think they're gonna make 896 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:07,760 Speaker 1: something happen. Demante Kaz seventy eight percent of the snaps. 897 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,919 Speaker 1: He was a one point two million hit there as well, 898 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,759 Speaker 1: also at the safety position, where you think he's going here, No, 899 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,839 Speaker 1: No two. I think I'm probably low three or four. Yeah, 900 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 1: I'm low on him based off of obviously the production 901 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 1: and man, I was so excited about him to begin with. 902 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 1: He had a solid camp, just good camp. Yeah, just 903 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 1: the performance wasn't there throughout the season and couldn't stay 904 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,280 Speaker 1: on the field. So I'm going off the field issues 905 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: too kind of maybe thrown in there. Yeah, I mean 906 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:37,279 Speaker 1: he's a d Q guy, so you got to take 907 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 1: that into factor that in. But I would like to 908 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 1: see a full off season with Malie Cooker and maybe 909 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: he's the guy they try to bring back. Okay, well 910 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 1: his names on this list, we'll get down there here 911 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,280 Speaker 1: in a second. Connor Williams at the left guard spot. 912 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: Mcconnor's gone, I think a one. Yeah, I don't think 913 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 1: he's here. I think if anything, they would roll with 914 00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 1: Connor McGovern then try and resign him to a long 915 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: or term deal or even a prove it deal. He 916 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,279 Speaker 1: might want to change the scenery himself. It may be 917 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 1: best for him, honestly, you know. And I you know what, 918 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 1: then if he's leaving there for the last time, holding 919 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 1: on number fifty five for the Dallas Cowboys, vanderesh no 920 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: my bad, two fifty two fifty two my guy, Connor 921 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 1: bron on his way out the door. Connor hasn't left 922 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:29,320 Speaker 1: the stay of Texas. Remember that, that's right, played in Texas, 923 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,359 Speaker 1: played in Copel. Even. Yeah, he's leaving, man, he's somebody. 924 00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 1: Somebody's gonna give him some bread, so he will be 925 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 1: with the Houston, Texas. I mean interior line will probably 926 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: be addressed. Uh, speaking of fifty five, since you brought 927 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 1: him up late in Vanderesh next Yeah, yeah, you were 928 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:50,320 Speaker 1: getting the head. That's all it is. Okay, So middle 929 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 1: of the road potential there, Yeah, money wise, basically, if 930 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:59,239 Speaker 1: it's low, then that's something there. Waitton wants to come back, right. 931 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 1: I think he really enjoyed playing for DQ, and they 932 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 1: need linebackers, so I wouldn't discount it. In room, I 933 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:09,320 Speaker 1: wouldn't discount it. But I could also see him moving 934 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 1: on to change the scenery. We'll see three point seventy eight. Okay. 935 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:15,479 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna have their whole room is about 936 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 1: to be brand new. You might be right, yeah, I 937 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 1: mean yeah, except for might probably line back the whole room. Yeah, 938 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,720 Speaker 1: drafts absolutely, I mean maybe somebody in free agency. Francis 939 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 1: Bernard will be back. He's exclused. I mean, dan Quinn 940 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:32,280 Speaker 1: needs guys that can run run around. He hit real Cox, 941 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 1: he'll be coming off injury. Luke Gifford's a restricted free agent. 942 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 1: I'm stepping on your list, Kyles. No, you're good. Yeah, 943 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:39,839 Speaker 1: it's just a it is a long list. We'll kind 944 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:41,839 Speaker 1: of run through a bunch of rapid fire names here 945 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 1: in a second, Layton Vanderesh, I think i'd put him 946 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: at a five. I think it's fifty fifty shot he 947 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 1: comes back because he may test that open market. He 948 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 1: may get some money there. But if he really wants 949 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 1: to be in Dallas, I think there's a chance he's back. 950 00:47:55,400 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 1: Uh key on O'Neil. Probably low two point seven two. Okay, yeah, 951 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 1: I don't think so nothing. Kay, Maybe DQ guy same 952 00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:07,600 Speaker 1: thing with a little bit. I mean, I think dre 953 00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:09,879 Speaker 1: Bill Cox, if he's healthy, he can compete to get 954 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 1: more of those snaps. You know, we'll see Dawrence Armstrong 955 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: edge rusher six point two mmmmm, Okay, what do you 956 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,399 Speaker 1: think Robbed I think he could if he tests the market, 957 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,120 Speaker 1: I think he could get a nice payday somewhere. I 958 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 1: think so. I think I put him in Another guy 959 00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 1: in the same category I mentioned earlier. I mean, he's 960 00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 1: still on that rookie deal, still a guy who played 961 00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 1: significant amount of snaps, only twenty five years old, and 962 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 1: the guy that the organization is high on the I mean, 963 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,799 Speaker 1: and he's kind of proving them right. So I'm gonna 964 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:41,800 Speaker 1: go seven point five kind of goes back to that 965 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 1: edge rusher room too. You know, kind of how you 966 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 1: were talking about linebacker. If DeMarcus Lawrence isn't there, if 967 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 1: Randy Gregory isn't there, Lawrence Armstrong might be one of 968 00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:51,879 Speaker 1: those guys that they look at as a cheap deal 969 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 1: centric Wilson one, I put him in. I put him 970 00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 1: in DA in the same category they want to keep 971 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 1: both guys. Sure you think it's more likely he's got 972 00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:06,239 Speaker 1: a five. I don't think he comes back. I think 973 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 1: he gets a deal that's going to raise some eyebrows. Maybe, 974 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 1: I think so. It's it's a lot harder for receivers 975 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,400 Speaker 1: to become number one guys. I think the aggressive was 976 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,120 Speaker 1: Wilson to try and bring him backing him back. Remember 977 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:22,239 Speaker 1: Leron Robinson, h Yeah, man, he you know, he had 978 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 1: a bigger year than than said Sad. But but he 979 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,800 Speaker 1: got paid the next offseason after working with Tony. I 980 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,320 Speaker 1: could just I don't know, I don't see what the 981 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:31,839 Speaker 1: marketing didn't Noah Brown just get to sign another dude today? 982 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:35,839 Speaker 1: Did Yeah? Okay, one year extension. So he's off that list. 983 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 1: He's back and ready to bring to bringing a band back, 984 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:43,120 Speaker 1: bringing the band back without nineteen minus nineteen silly. Uh. 985 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 1: Michael Gallops speaking of bringing the band back, He'll be 986 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,800 Speaker 1: back probably interesting that. I mean, I know Gallup was 987 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 1: hurt all the way through, but just seeing the fact 988 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: that Cedric had more percentage snaps than Gallop this year 989 00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:58,120 Speaker 1: was was interesting in my opinion. I think he's a ten. 990 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 1: He's back. Yeah, it's almost they're working on a deal. 991 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm interested to see what it looks like 992 00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 1: because just with the injury a lot of injury classes. 993 00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:08,400 Speaker 1: The church got a new deal after his achilles, you know, 994 00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 1: and they bet on him and he came back strong, 995 00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:12,279 Speaker 1: so that's what they're betting on. I think it's good 996 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:17,760 Speaker 1: transition into Malie Cooker with Achilles, maliek Cooker back. Hema, 997 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:20,759 Speaker 1: I've already said that. I believe Mollie Cooker is back, 998 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,840 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go eight. Yeah, I think I'm probably 999 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,839 Speaker 1: seven seven eight right there? Nine point one seven. Wow, 1000 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 1: you're very confident. Yeah, So you think it's cursing Hooker 1001 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:32,279 Speaker 1: on the back side of that defense They put him 1002 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 1: in this past year to see if he still had 1003 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 1: it and he does bring him back. Okay, Yeah, I 1004 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,719 Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, I'm right. There with you. This is 1005 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 1: an interesting one. Carlos Watkins played in the interior of 1006 00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 1: that defensive line. Was kind of your de facto nose 1007 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:49,320 Speaker 1: tackle because of the lack of a true one technique 1008 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,759 Speaker 1: on the roster outside of Quentin Bohanna. He was in 1009 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,440 Speaker 1: that rotation with Osa Diggi Zua, with Nevill Gallimore. Do 1010 00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:58,200 Speaker 1: you think he comes back on a small deal. His 1011 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:02,520 Speaker 1: deal initially was one point seven five, so I mean 1012 00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 1: close to two million. He could probably get that again elsewhere, 1013 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,920 Speaker 1: but yeah, two point seven I think. Don't think he's back. 1014 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:11,480 Speaker 1: I don't think he's back. I think you have to 1015 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 1: give up some of your d lineman, and I think 1016 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 1: he's gonna be one of the casualties. Okay. I think 1017 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,800 Speaker 1: it's kind of a shoulder shrug for me. Man. I 1018 00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:20,960 Speaker 1: would like to bring him back. Honestly, he was a surprise. 1019 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:23,280 Speaker 1: I mean the guy that Clemson played for the Texans. 1020 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:24,759 Speaker 1: You didn't know what you were going to get out 1021 00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 1: of him. He came in and he was high energy, 1022 00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 1: gave you some quality reps, did some good things against 1023 00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 1: the run. He was everything that you needed. And if 1024 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:34,120 Speaker 1: you can get him on the cheap deal, I say 1025 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,319 Speaker 1: bring him back. I mean, this is what we think 1026 00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,080 Speaker 1: is gonna happen, right, this isn't what we want. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 1027 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,600 Speaker 1: yeah predictions. But I mean I agree with him. I 1028 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 1: think that's the thought process. I think they want him back. 1029 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 1: They like having a veteran on that defensive line, like 1030 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: yeah Watkins. Yeah, although I mean you need to he 1031 00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,080 Speaker 1: DQ likes a deeper rotation. Right. But but you're thinking 1032 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: Osa is gonna take another step maybe you know, can 1033 00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 1: Quinn Bohanna get some more snaps? So but yeah, yeah, 1034 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:02,960 Speaker 1: I'll say yeah, I think I think he'll come back. 1035 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:04,320 Speaker 1: I think he's on a one year deal. Again. I 1036 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 1: think it's for one or two year deal that they 1037 00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 1: don't really have the liberties to kind of kick it 1038 00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 1: down the road with guys. He's gonna be thirty this 1039 00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:12,480 Speaker 1: next season. I don't think they're gonna want to restrict 1040 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 1: the growth of their young guys. Yeah, I think it's 1041 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 1: a temporary deal. If they're gonna do it. Randy Gregory 1042 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:21,640 Speaker 1: see back with the Dallas Cowboys. Can they afford to 1043 00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:24,800 Speaker 1: bring him back? That's probably a big question. Eight. So 1044 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 1: you're thinking, how did they do that? D Lal does? 1045 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:32,839 Speaker 1: Then Brandy's back in the fold. Okay, probably a cheaper deal, 1046 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:40,839 Speaker 1: loyalty bonus, maybe bus one shot to get paid because 1047 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 1: he's twenty nine, Yeah, and he's never gotten really a 1048 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 1: big deal. He just turned thirty two. Yeah, like he 1049 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:50,680 Speaker 1: just turned thirty. I think, just crazy because he had 1050 00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:52,680 Speaker 1: how many games as he played? Not a lot? You know, 1051 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,320 Speaker 1: I think he's back because I think. I think because 1052 00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:58,839 Speaker 1: I think ultimately the structure in place here, everything he's 1053 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,279 Speaker 1: been through here, I think so. But the money's got 1054 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:03,880 Speaker 1: to be right. He's not just gonna take nothing. And 1055 00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:05,719 Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying based off of his production and 1056 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:07,760 Speaker 1: what he did this year. I think he let everyone 1057 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:11,439 Speaker 1: know that he has a whole lot to offer a team. 1058 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,160 Speaker 1: And if you feel like other teams are gonna cherry 1059 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 1: pick guys off of our roster, why wouldn't they look 1060 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:19,719 Speaker 1: at Randy Gregory the same way. Yeah, he has to 1061 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:24,319 Speaker 1: get ten at least goodness, And if there's another team 1062 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 1: out there willing to pay more, because there are rumored 1063 00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:29,480 Speaker 1: to be teams obviously that would be in the hunt 1064 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,520 Speaker 1: for him, that would pay him more on the one 1065 00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:40,840 Speaker 1: year deal, and so the loyalty's loyalty bonus not for 1066 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,359 Speaker 1: that signing bonus that he's gonna want no, I mean 1067 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,440 Speaker 1: his this is as interesting a guy on the list 1068 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 1: as anybody. I think so too. It's back and forth, 1069 00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:50,799 Speaker 1: and it also it's one of those things where it's 1070 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:55,239 Speaker 1: if the money is right, if he's valued elsewhere, I 1071 00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,839 Speaker 1: don't know if he's going to get that same kind 1072 00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:02,680 Speaker 1: of that same kind of thought process around the league 1073 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:06,279 Speaker 1: as he does here really just based off of what 1074 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 1: Rob said, I mean, he didn't. He hasn't played a 1075 00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:10,960 Speaker 1: whole lot in the grand scheme of his career. He's 1076 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 1: thirties years, thirty years old, and how many games does 1077 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 1: he play? At thirty five games? They just don't even 1078 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,880 Speaker 1: still make guys like him though, you know right, you 1079 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 1: look right, They just don't make not devaluing him for sure. 1080 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: I'm talking about body type and I'm talking about his 1081 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:24,800 Speaker 1: abilities and like the impact like you have. That's a 1082 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 1: guy you better circle, you know what I'm saying, Like 1083 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 1: as you think about defense ends like you circle him 1084 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 1: and that should be a ton of tread on the tires. 1085 00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:35,879 Speaker 1: Yes for him, Yeah, absolutely so. At this point, I'm 1086 00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 1: just thinking about the roster in general. Who do we have, uh, 1087 00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: Chauncey ghostin Basham Country, you know. I mean, so with that, 1088 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:49,080 Speaker 1: listen that rotation. Even as we talk about Carlos Watkins, 1089 00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:51,000 Speaker 1: we have to understand, like DQ as a hell of 1090 00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:53,440 Speaker 1: a rotation that he plays with, and all of those 1091 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:57,480 Speaker 1: guys are rotational guys. So I mean, I would love 1092 00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,480 Speaker 1: to bring Randy back, but I think it's always going 1093 00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 1: to be at the right price, and it's going to be, 1094 00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:04,840 Speaker 1: you know, at the right price. That's it. Yeah, thirty 1095 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:07,760 Speaker 1: or thirty six games over the last three years, fifty 1096 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:12,560 Speaker 1: games over his career, only twelve starts so in eleven 1097 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,480 Speaker 1: unto those came in twenty twenty one. That's just an 1098 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 1: interesting case, man, Because that's an interesting case because we, 1099 00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,840 Speaker 1: like you said, Rob, guys typically get paid off of 1100 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:25,240 Speaker 1: the past performance. You don't really just have a sample 1101 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:28,319 Speaker 1: size with him to go off of. No, but if 1102 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:29,919 Speaker 1: you know, if you're a team looking for a pass 1103 00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:31,400 Speaker 1: rush and you turn on the tape of like the 1104 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,880 Speaker 1: Pats game and you're like, holy crap, I mean that 1105 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,279 Speaker 1: guy he wrecked the game, turned the game around for him. 1106 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:39,520 Speaker 1: So it's it's a get it against Washington. He's got Yeah, 1107 00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:42,680 Speaker 1: he's got the tape. The tape is there, the player, 1108 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: the frame, the potential, all of that is there, but 1109 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,759 Speaker 1: whether or not teams are willing to take a risk 1110 00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 1: on him moving into their off season. Dallas, I think, 1111 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 1: would say, come on back, We'll give you seven to 1112 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 1: eight mill. They're probably not gonna hit that ten million 1113 00:55:57,320 --> 00:56:00,919 Speaker 1: mark here. They're gonna have to That's I'm saying here. 1114 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:03,040 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think he could get that elsewhere. 1115 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:04,920 Speaker 1: You don't think Dallas is gonna find ten million for him? 1116 00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:07,800 Speaker 1: I think they have to de law leaves. They have 1117 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:10,000 Speaker 1: to find ten million. Seems like a steep number, and 1118 00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 1: especially when you're thinking about having the paid draft class. 1119 00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:15,359 Speaker 1: Hear you, But if de law leaves, which I can't 1120 00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,760 Speaker 1: see him coming back, you have to bring back Gregory. 1121 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:19,600 Speaker 1: I agree, Yeah, I agree with it. And it has 1122 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 1: to be at that number. Man. Uh Brian Anger punter, 1123 00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:28,880 Speaker 1: Oh heck yeah, bringing him back? Yeah, Okay, Okay, nobody's 1124 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 1: arguing that are up? Uh not that they want to. 1125 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:35,759 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know what putters what putters make. 1126 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. He made one point one this past year, 1127 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 1: but he's an All Pro thirty four and he's an 1128 00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:47,839 Speaker 1: All Pro. Punters can put yeah. Yeah, so I'll say yes. 1129 00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:51,759 Speaker 1: But but it's the money again. Money's gotta be right. Uh, 1130 00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:56,480 Speaker 1: Jeremy Sprinkle, Oh here you go, gone gone okay? Uh 1131 00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:02,160 Speaker 1: Brent Urban, he go, Man. I want Brent. I wanted 1132 00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:05,000 Speaker 1: him to. I want him. You know, I changed my stance. 1133 00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 1: Bring it back cheap. I give him five five. Give 1134 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,879 Speaker 1: him five five just because he got hurt. Five point five. 1135 00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:14,920 Speaker 1: That's not the contract that is. That's my confidence level 1136 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 1: because I think that they want him back. I think 1137 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 1: that they need him back in terms of his presence, 1138 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 1: in terms his veteran presence, in terms of his size, 1139 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 1: and I think that he has unfinished business because of 1140 00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:26,200 Speaker 1: his injury from last year. I agree. And you talked 1141 00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:28,560 Speaker 1: about him last year how the running game kind of 1142 00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:31,920 Speaker 1: fell off, the defense fell off after he went out. 1143 00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:33,919 Speaker 1: He was a big part of that, taking on double teams. 1144 00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 1: He just does a lot of things that doesn't make 1145 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:38,160 Speaker 1: the stat sheet. So you need players like that. Can 1146 00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 1: bo Hannam take that step as we think right now? 1147 00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 1: Maybe not, but it would be good to have an 1148 00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:48,560 Speaker 1: insurance policy. But for sure, Urban, I'm sure he probably 1149 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:52,920 Speaker 1: likes being here more though than in Chicago. When when 1150 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:54,760 Speaker 1: he was talking about coming here. That was one of 1151 00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:57,000 Speaker 1: his big favorite things. Maybe he's back and he was 1152 00:57:57,040 --> 00:57:59,400 Speaker 1: in that rotation with Carlos Watkins at the same time, 1153 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 1: and I feel like those two guys coming back would 1154 00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 1: be a positive five point five five point five tie 1155 00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 1: and Secky back. No, he's back back. Yes, cheap deal probably, Yeah, Okay, 1156 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 1: Malik Turner, I think he's got Wait a minute, let's 1157 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:20,040 Speaker 1: talk value here on Turner, because he came in and 1158 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 1: he showed you some value special special teams guy that 1159 00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 1: you talk about what he did on special teams and 1160 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 1: also as a receiver something on Now, I mean, he's 1161 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,400 Speaker 1: a utility player that you need. You want him back, 1162 00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:35,120 Speaker 1: all right? Come on receptions one hundred and fifty yards, 1163 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:39,280 Speaker 1: three or four touchdowns? Yeah you have three three touchdowns? Um, 1164 00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:42,480 Speaker 1: and then let me give you his He's twenty five 1165 00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:49,200 Speaker 1: percent touchdowns killing killing ten point three percent of offensive snaps. 1166 00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:53,080 Speaker 1: So that's not including his special teams at least a dog. 1167 00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 1: I told Johnsons they signed him. I said it was 1168 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:56,520 Speaker 1: a dog. He was gonna make a big impact. I 1169 00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:58,320 Speaker 1: think that they need to bring him back, not only 1170 00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 1: from the special teams person, back to be in terms 1171 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:03,240 Speaker 1: of cheap depth. I think that's somebody that you need 1172 00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:05,280 Speaker 1: to bring back. I don't see another team giving him 1173 00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 1: a big payday. And I think he feels valued A 1174 00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 1: big portion of when you're in that type of position, 1175 00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:11,640 Speaker 1: you want to feel valued, and I think he feels 1176 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 1: that here and they just roll back to punter real quick. Yeah, 1177 00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:20,600 Speaker 1: highest paid punter Johnny Hecker Hecker three point eight. You know, 1178 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 1: if Ryan Anger is looking for four million bucks a year, 1179 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 1: I just I don't know, no, is that what he 1180 00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 1: would be like that. I'm just saying. I'm saying he 1181 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,400 Speaker 1: was a second team All Pro whatever, like they're gonna 1182 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,919 Speaker 1: have to give him two million? Yeah, Okay, we'll see, 1183 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:38,320 Speaker 1: uh rapid fire on these last five. Corey Clement one yeah, 1184 00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 1: one there two for me, Maurice Kennedy okay two yeah yeah. 1185 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 1: Luke Gifford, that's your guy, Rob yeah yeah him back 1186 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 1: yeah okay, yeah, yeah, that's true. He's these last three 1187 00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 1: guys are restricted or exclusive rights. Gifford, yeah, Francis Bernard 1188 00:59:57,120 --> 01:00:01,080 Speaker 1: probably just for depth, right yeah, Okay, So I didn't 1189 01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:05,200 Speaker 1: mean that nobody can even compete with anything, so yeah, yeah, 1190 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:09,800 Speaker 1: Mitch Hyatt, well, he's been hurt. I mean, he's been 1191 01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:12,720 Speaker 1: here for like ten years, and he feels like he's 1192 01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:15,280 Speaker 1: dealt with a lot of injuries. It's only twenty five yeah, yeah, 1193 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:18,040 Speaker 1: but he feels like he's been around for twenty five years. 1194 01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:21,760 Speaker 1: And the first fifteen year oldrafty about Brent Urban, I 1195 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,280 Speaker 1: remember this, he tweeted out the day after the season 1196 01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:26,880 Speaker 1: was over.
