We got OTA's coming up later this afternoon. 0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:49.879 But before we get to today, let's talk about what 0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:53.320 happened last week, because that was our first media availability 0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:55.400 to hang out with the guys, get to chat with them, 0:00:56.000 --> 0:00:58.000 see kind of what they've been up to this offseason, 0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:01.240 and really see a glimpse of what this team could 0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:03.480 start to look like as we get closer and closer 0:01:03.520 --> 0:01:05.959 to training camp and then preseason and then the kick 0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:07.360 off of the twenty twenty three season. 0:01:07.920 --> 0:01:09.319 Now, I was not here last week. 0:01:09.319 --> 0:01:11.319 Obviously, you ladies held it down for us, So I 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:12.800 kind of want to default to you just to kind 0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:15.400 of start things off. What did you see last week 0:01:15.440 --> 0:01:18.520 in OTAs in that media availability that you. 0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:19.240 Were impressed with. 0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:21.479 Let's talk practice first and then we'll kind of get 0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:23.600 into what the players had to say. But just from 0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:27.039 a practice standpoint, what did we see? And again, I 0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:29.480 want to back up really quick here because OTAs are 0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:31.959 so tricky because it's really kind of a tease right there, 0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:35.440 and especially with this organization because they've had some issues 0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:38.520 sticking to the NFL guidelines with the new CBA and 0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:40.600 all of that. So I know the focus this year 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:42.759 is to really make sure they're not going over their 0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:44.760 practice time or doing anything that's going to get them 0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:48.279 any penalties later in the summer. So that being said, 0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:50.880 what did you see at practice? How you shall go 0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:53.120 to you first that maybe stood out to you. 0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:56.720 So I think the biggest thing that stood out to 0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:59.880 me looking at the offense and just kind of looking 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:02.960 at now granted they're running drills and they're they're doing 0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:05.160 seven on seven, but the tempo. 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:08.440 Of things seems right, just it seems sped up. 0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:11.400 It seems like they really want to focus on focus 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.600 on efficiency, but they want to be able to play fast. 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:17.040 And then when you also look at the addition of 0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:20.200 douce Van Tony Pollard actually got some reps, which was 0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:24.160 crazy to even see with his uh with his recovery. 0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:26.760 But then you start and then Cavante Turpin got some 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:30.160 wide receiver you know, reps as well. The uptick and 0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:33.440 speed on the offensive side of the ball really looks real, 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:36.120 not only the tempo and the cadence and everything, but 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:39.360 just the additions that you have made seem like you 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.000 want to be able to play fast, and to them 0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:45.960 it sounds like fast means can also counteract with efficiency. 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:48.200 And that's that was what stood out to me the 0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:49.880 most last week. 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:51.280 Oh that's a perfect way to put it. 0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:53.720 Oh my goodness, yes, and hitting the nail right on 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:57.320 the head, because it was like their communication took a 0:02:57.600 --> 0:02:59.799 took a step up, and they took a notch up 0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:02.880 with really emphasizing the communication and you can see it. 0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:05.280 You can tell that everybody is on the same page together. 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:08.560 You know, they are really taking. 0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:12.720 What is it taking call to what it means to 0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:15.280 be an efficient offense with the communication factor. 0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:16.920 What stood out for me was. 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:19.760 You know, obviously we went in there looking at our 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:23.120 own individual players and wanting to see individual things. I 0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:25.600 was really focused on the wide receiver group because I 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:28.360 wanted to see how they meshed together. And let me 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:32.000 just say, Brandon Cook's speed, that is real thing. I 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:35.000 thought lightning flashed in the Ford Center when we were 0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:38.000 watching them. But what I liked is how he would 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:40.840 individually work with these guys. So I saw him from 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:42.080 the time we were in there, and we were in 0:03:42.120 --> 0:03:45.320 there for what an hour. I saw him talking to 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:47.800 Cavante on the side. I saw him talking to MG 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:48.600 on the side. 0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:50.880 I saw him talking to Ceede Lamb on the side. 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:54.400 So what I really liked about it is that when 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:56.839 we're talking about Brandon Cooks, it's one thing that we're 0:03:56.880 --> 0:03:59.160 hearing it, and we're hearing it from the guy saying, 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:01.360 yeah that our in lead and we know he brings that. 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:04.200 But to see it and within that hour, and that's 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:08.080 not even a long time in retrospect, just seeing him 0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:10.880 personally work with those guys and showing them our emotions 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:13.800 and just moving their body physically to show them things, 0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.760 it was really awesome to see. So I was honed 0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:19.880 in on that I usually talk about Cavante getting wide 0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:22.680 receiver reps, we saw that he was also the only 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:28.040 guy taking returner reps. So that's something to know, another 0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:31.120 reminder that yes, everything is still speculation and we're still 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:32.040 keep an eye on that. 0:04:32.880 --> 0:04:33.760 Deuce was fast. 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:35.480 From what I saw I got to see Deuce, there 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:39.520 was two separate wings playing, so you had these guys 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:41.599 playing over here. So we kept like getting whiplash going 0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:44.720 back and forth watching it just looked good. It looked good, 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:47.400 It looked where it needed to be from where they 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:48.320 left off last season. 0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:51.120 I have loved because I went back and listened to 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.440 a few of the guys. We've had like the absolute 0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:56.360 craziest week with media days and everything else under the sun. 0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:57.760 But I went back and listened to a couple of 0:04:57.760 --> 0:04:59.280 the guys and one of them that I listened to 0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:02.200 was Brandon Coe Looks and you know, we've heard him 0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:04.800 talk about how important it is for him to be 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:08.400 a leader to this group, and it's interesting to me 0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:12.480 when you see still the conversation surrounding him and even 0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:16.080 Stefan Gilmour and how they're washed and how they're not 0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:19.040 going to be as impactful as we're thinking. And obviously 0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:22.359 that comes from fans or it comes from you know, 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:26.520 opposite fan base supporters, and so there's there's a lot 0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:29.320 of talk, but it's really refreshing to know that, you know, 0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:33.440 the locker room still remains what it was from last season, 0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:37.440 where they are still relying on that trust from you know, 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:39.320 the guys within the group and they're not listening to 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:40.479 a lot of the outside noise. 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:42.640 And something else that really stood out to me as well. 0:05:43.000 --> 0:05:45.280 We talk about how, you know, the word for the 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:47.839 last season has been resilience, and that's been their word, 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:49.640 and that's kind of what they're focused on. 0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:51.039 The word that I kept. 0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:54.800 Hearing thrown around in between Mike McCarthy and Dak Prescott 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:58.200 was purpose, and Dak kept saying that purpose is what 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:01.359 he's focused on right now. And I loved how he 0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:04.119 broke that down because, you know, purpose at face value 0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:06.760 is a pretty it's a pretty easy word to understand, 0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:08.680 right it's your goal, it's what you want to do, 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:10.320 it's it's why you're doing it. 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:12.599 But he took it a step further. 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:15.760 It was not just you know, the purpose of his passes, 0:06:15.839 --> 0:06:18.800 but the purpose of conversations he's having with his head 0:06:18.800 --> 0:06:20.760 coach in terms of getting better and getting used to 0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:21.719 having a play caller. 0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:22.760 It's purpose. 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:25.200 When he's speaking to some of those younger guys and 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:27.160 trying to make sure that they can all get on 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:29.720 the same page so that those interceptions don't happen again. 0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:34.200 So it's sounding like to me that purpose is what's 0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:37.080 going to drive them this year. I'm interested to talk 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:39.120 to the guys today just to see if that word 0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:43.160 continues to pop up and resonate. But again, with OTAs, 0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:45.200 it's so challenging because you know, we can only see 0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:47.120 what we can see, and we can only speculate what 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:50.200 we can speculate. But it feels pretty refreshing, it feels 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:52.640 pretty interesting. I was kind of reading along as well 0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:55.760 on our website. Patrick had some really good nuggets as 0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:57.480 far as some stuff that he talked about. He mentioned 0:06:57.560 --> 0:07:01.960 Cavante Turpin, He mentioned Michael Galla feeling much more like himself. 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:05.800 I saw Michael yesterday at Media Days and got to 0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:08.359 chat with him. He says he's feeling good, he's feeling excited, 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:11.720 so that'll be good for him as well. And then 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:14.200 something else that I thought was kind of cool to 0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:17.240 look forward to. He talked about Mozzie Smith, and he 0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:20.920 talked about how Mozzie was already working his way into 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.040 that defensive line and not only working his way in, 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:24.040 but he's being. 0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:25.920 Double teamed, so yeah, he was in practice. 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:28.480 You can already tell the kind of threat that he's 0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:31.400 going to be as well. I mean, if this offensive 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:34.280 line feels like they have to double team against him, 0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:37.080 I can imagine what the Giants will have to worry 0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:39.200 about in week one. So a lot of fun stuff there. 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:41.239 Anything else that stood out to you, guys? 0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:43.200 I wanted to add on to what you said about 0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:45.920 purpose because I'm I'm so glad you brought it up 0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:48.000 because he slipped my mind because it stood out to 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:50.680 both of us, we kept hearing it. I think that 0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:54.080 that's also important. It's so funny because when you're a kid, 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.480 your parents tell you like you're not supposed to ask why, 0:07:56.760 --> 0:07:58.680 Like they tell you to do something. 0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:00.120 You're supposed to just do it. 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:03.119 But if you're really trying to come together as a team, 0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:06.840 make guys better the understanding of why are we running 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:09.880 this play right now to counter what the defense is doing? 0:08:10.160 --> 0:08:12.200 Why is this why is this the game plan? 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:14.640 Why are we throwing out these packages instead of these 0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:18.000 packages We might see guys offensively in a one game 0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:19.440 that we might not see in the next game. And 0:08:19.480 --> 0:08:22.680 on the defense as well, I think that that's very 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:26.640 healthy communication for a team to build, you know, to 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:27.600 build confidence. 0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:29.400 And that's another thing too. They're confident. 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:33.000 You can feel the confidence, and I think that's because 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:35.760 they know why they're doing what they're doing, what the 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:39.200 reasons why they're running certain plays and these installations and stuff. 0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:41.080 So I'm so glad you brought that up. I wanted 0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:43.040 to just add that I feel like that's important for 0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:44.160 this team's growth as well. 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:46.120 Yeah, and the word purpose. 0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:48.199 It's funny because Ayusha and I were sitting next to 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:50.280 each other in the press conference with Mike McCarthy and 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:53.040 he said play call purpose. He talked about PCP and 0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:55.840 we kind of smacked each other and move, yes, that 0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:58.680 is it. Because he was asked, have you how much 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:00.640 time extra time have you spent with Dak while you're 0:09:00.679 --> 0:09:03.400 kind of restructuring the offense as it stands right now 0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:05.520 with the play calling in the playbook, and he said, 0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:08.600 there's never enough time spent, but you know, no worries 0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:12.360 football football talk is part of it. It's more of 0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:15.280 a collaborative play calling. And so then he went into 0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:19.640 talking about PCP play call purpose, and Dak even mentioned 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:23.480 that too when he was talking so again, knowing why 0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:25.840 they're doing it and being on the same page about it, 0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:28.400 and I think just being more collective about it, being 0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:30.800 able to say, hey, this didn't work for me because 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:36.240 of XYZ and Mike McCarthy actually, you know, taking that 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:38.080 for what it is and saying, Okay, well then let's 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:40.760 try this. I think it's just more collaboration more than anything, 0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:43.920 is what you're seeing. So PCP, that was something that 0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:46.120 we learned last week. Something else I wanted to mention 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:50.520 too about everything that we saw was the Kicker situation, 0:09:50.600 --> 0:09:53.640 because that's a big storyline. Patrick and I were sitting 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:56.800 next to each other when we were watching Tristan kick. 0:09:56.880 --> 0:10:00.360 He made six of his eight attempts and the two 0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:03.200 that he missed were I want to say, closer to 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:06.480 the thirty and then it was closer to the forty five. 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:10.960 I want to say, not for sure. But again we were. 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:12.920 Kind of talking looking back and forth on both sides 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:17.160 of the field here when this was happening. But overall, 0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:19.480 I mean, I got to chat with him at Media Days, 0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:20.960 just briefly, and I said, how do you feel? 0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:22.839 And he said, I feel good. Good. 0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:26.560 You need to so the Kicker situation is good. You 0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:29.760 mentioned MG talked to him at media days yesterday as well, 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:32.120 and he looked like he had a pep in his step. 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:38.520 I mean he just looked he looked like yes, I. 0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:44.800 Got no, yes, yeah, So it was it was cool. 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:47.120 It was really great getting to catch up with the 0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:50.360 guys for the first time since i mean last season, 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:52.319 and the last time we got to talk to them 0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:56.080 was obviously not of good spirits because of how the 0:10:56.120 --> 0:11:00.000 season had ended. But to see them refreshed, ready to go, 0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:03.640 recharged and in a new spirit is really good to see. 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:06.520 Yeah, and for for reference as well when we talk 0:11:06.559 --> 0:11:10.319 about media days, the Cowboys held an internal media day yesterday, 0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:14.640 so just to get all of the video yesterday and Tuesday, 0:11:15.120 --> 0:11:16.760 but just to get all the videos of like the 0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:18.679 you know, the video board stuff that you see at 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:22.360 at and T Stadium. Are incredible graphic designers, and Obia 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:24.240 did a photo shoot so she could get all of 0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:26.559 her pictures for all of the cool graphics and stuff 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.560 that you guys see on social media. She's also designed 0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:33.640 the poll banners and the video board outside of the 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:36.000 Ford Center as well, so I know, she's like my 0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:39.640 favorite person ever, so a lot of good stuff as well. 0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:41.640 They did some stuff with social media, so a lot 0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:43.280 of cool stuff coming out with those guys. And so 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:45.280 when we talk about media days, that's what we're referring to. 0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:48.400 Before I get back to that, I did want to 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:51.760 mention you talked about the kicking situation with Christan Viiscano. 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:53.760 Viscano Viscano. 0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:57.319 Have we decided how to say his last week's Vscanosco Okay, 0:11:57.400 --> 0:11:59.240 I promise I will never mess that up again. 0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:00.000 I'll let y'all do it. 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:00.360 Scan. 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:05.440 It's interesting when you when you talk about the kicker position, 0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:08.720 because two weeks ago Bones Fossil said, you know, anyone 0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:11.920 who has a kicking leg is available. 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:13.640 To you immediately. 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:18.559 I know, I know he's available. I've thought about it. 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:21.640 I I do plan on having a conversation with Bones 0:12:21.679 --> 0:12:22.920 about getting me a tryout. 0:12:23.120 --> 0:12:24.640 I think I'm qualified enough. 0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:27.520 I got to get through this kickball season that we're 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:29.920 having here with the Doboys first, before I can see 0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:30.640 if you're any of. 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:32.720 Us headitive mode, you might as well just keep it 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:33.680 on and keep going. 0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:35.280 Go talk to Bone. See what he says. 0:12:35.400 --> 0:12:36.640 Oh goodness. 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:42.600 But in terms of Tristan Bisquano, Uh, there's not really 0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:45.240 any competition for him right now, you know, so you 0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:46.960 take what he's doing with the grain of salt. But 0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:50.000 I did just want to mention I googled free agent 0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:52.760 kickers just to see who's available on the market right now. Obviously, 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:54.800 Robbie Gould is available out of the forty nine ers, 0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:57.839 right and suck up from the Buccaneers. Brett Maher is 0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:01.040 still available, Matt Prater from the Cardinals. He also spent 0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:04.520 time with the Lions. H Ky for Bath is also 0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:08.199 available from the Commanders. And then, uh, when I opened 0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:10.680 this up, I was surprised because I saw Dan Bailey's 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:12.720 name on this list. I didn't realize that his contract 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:15.480 call him up had already right now is coming up. 0:13:15.520 --> 0:13:19.240 So uh listen, Kai Kyle was that guy when he 0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:19.559 was there. 0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:22.480 Yeah, I thought was that long, but he was that guy. 0:13:22.880 --> 0:13:24.240 Dan Bailey was money though. 0:13:24.520 --> 0:13:26.920 Remember those were the glory days when you can sit 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:28.120 back and you're like Dan. 0:13:28.000 --> 0:13:29.440 Bailey's in, We're great. 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:32.360 Yeah, you were like, I can I can go take 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:34.040 my potty break. I know it's going to be a 0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:36.080 solid when I come back out, And. 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:37.640 Uh, yeah, that's interesting. 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:40.360 Yeah, A lot of a lot of guys on that list, 0:13:40.400 --> 0:13:42.240 so that'll be something to keep an eye out for. 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:46.360 And something else that I found intriguing from Mike's press 0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:50.520 conference and even previously when we got to talk to 0:13:50.559 --> 0:13:53.040 the coordinators was their interest. 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:54.400 In the XFL and the USFL. 0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:57.920 That is something that really has become not just like 0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:01.640 a blip or a back seat option, but it's cool 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:04.600 to see how that is becoming such a viable place 0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:07.600 to find players, and they've been speaking about it in 0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:09.480 terms of finding a kicker from there. 0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:11.320 So yep, now we're going to. 0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:13.199 Have to start doing some research on the XFL and 0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:17.200 the USFL guys too, So a lot of fun opportunities 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:20.120 for these guys here in OTAs now. They will obviously 0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:22.600 continue practicing today. We'll get to talk to them later. 0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:24.560 But something I want to talk about when we get 0:14:24.560 --> 0:14:26.240 back on this other side of the break is the 0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:28.440 offensive line, because I have a feeling there's still going 0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:31.880 to be some shuffling. It's not really solidified. So let's 0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:32.920 go ahead and take our first break. 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:33.480 When we come back. 0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:36.080 We are going to talk offensive line on the Dallas 0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:37.920 Cowboys here on Girls Talk Boys Stop. 0:14:39.200 --> 0:14:42.320 At Jigsaw Dating. We obviously want the Cowboys to bring 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:44.840 that sixth ring home. But to be honest, we're more 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:46.840 focused on finding the person who will put a ring 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:49.800 on your finger.

On I always reference 0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:50.960 our TV. I wish you guys could see. 0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:52.440 Whenever I just porn crazy. 0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:55.720 They're counting down the top I think the best teams 0:17:55.760 --> 0:17:58.399 in NFL history. The Cowboys have been on here twice 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:02.400 since I've been here since about ninety forty. So we're 0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:04.280 watching EMITTT Smith run into the end zone. 0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:05.560 We love it. 0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:07.720 We love when America's team is recognized for the things 0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:10.200 and the accomplishments that they have done in the storied franchise. 0:18:10.280 --> 0:18:13.720 So shout out to our Dallas Cowboys. And speaking of 0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:16.160 the Dallas Cowboys, let's talk a little bit about the 0:18:16.240 --> 0:18:18.879 offensive line. It's kind of been a little bit of 0:18:18.920 --> 0:18:21.600 a question mark ever since the team lost Terrence Steele 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:25.479 last season against the Texans, he tore his ACL and 0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:30.200 his MCL. But a super positive recovery process for him. 0:18:30.520 --> 0:18:32.840 You know, he's been working alls off season. We've seen 0:18:32.880 --> 0:18:35.600 him out on the field and then obviously getting to 0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:38.359 speak to him yesterday at Media Days. He's locked in, 0:18:38.400 --> 0:18:40.560 he's loaded, he feels good, he feels like he's making 0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:45.360 good progress. So that's exciting, But it also means that 0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:49.280 for at least the temporary that means Tyrone Smith is 0:18:49.320 --> 0:18:52.000 still working at right tackle as they continue to shuffle 0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:55.360 the line around. Now, it'll be interesting what the starting 0:18:55.520 --> 0:18:58.760 offensive line will actually look like because they lost some 0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:01.280 key pieces. Connor McGovern and is no longer a part 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:03.560 of this team, so that'll be a gap to fill. 0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:06.639 You do get Tyler Beattish, and you do you know 0:19:06.680 --> 0:19:08.200 you have Tyler Smith as well. 0:19:08.280 --> 0:19:10.960 But I'm just curious to see. 0:19:10.760 --> 0:19:14.359 How they're going to utilize who where, because what I 0:19:14.400 --> 0:19:17.080 don't want to see is another situation where like, yes, 0:19:17.160 --> 0:19:19.720 we have the versatility for guys to play, you know, 0:19:19.760 --> 0:19:22.720 wherever they're and they're you know, willing to do that. 0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:24.960 But I want a strong offensive line. I want to 0:19:25.000 --> 0:19:27.360 give Dak a chance this year. I want to give 0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:30.160 our running backs an opportunity to get through and find 0:19:30.160 --> 0:19:32.239 some holes. I want to give our tight ends an 0:19:32.240 --> 0:19:34.480 opportunity to get involved in the offense and not be 0:19:34.640 --> 0:19:37.520 so laser focused on blocking all the time. So I 0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:40.680 really want to see some continuity from this offensive line. 0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:42.639 And so my question to you, ladies is where do 0:19:42.680 --> 0:19:45.040 you see that continuity being? Where do you still see 0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:49.280 holes where this offensive line should be focusing on during 0:19:49.280 --> 0:19:51.680 this offseason otiers, And I know it's a loaded question, 0:19:51.720 --> 0:19:52.760 That's why I'm asking. 0:19:52.520 --> 0:19:53.160 You, guys. 0:19:53.200 --> 0:19:57.000 Okay, I wrote down lower who go play left in 0:19:57.040 --> 0:20:01.520 my notes because listen, I I really feel like with 0:20:01.640 --> 0:20:05.600 Terrence Steele listening to him talking to him, not sure 0:20:05.640 --> 0:20:08.840 you can't guarantee when he's gonna be ready, but if 0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:12.879 he is not ready, I think that Tylan Tyrant is 0:20:12.920 --> 0:20:16.040 going to take on right tackle. Michael Gelk, he mentioned 0:20:16.040 --> 0:20:18.480 it in an article this week, is that he really 0:20:18.520 --> 0:20:19.560 does feel as though that. 0:20:19.520 --> 0:20:20.680 Would be the move. 0:20:20.920 --> 0:20:23.639 So then your question is like, so, who if Tyler 0:20:23.800 --> 0:20:26.359 is your left tackle, because he's been taking at practice, 0:20:26.359 --> 0:20:29.240 he took reps there, who's your left guard? And so 0:20:29.480 --> 0:20:33.240 really for me is looking at the battle at left 0:20:33.240 --> 0:20:36.679 guard right now, and the coaches seem like they have 0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:40.439 faith in Chimui dooga. However, that is a competition, and 0:20:40.520 --> 0:20:44.200 Matt farnioc took quite a few snacks at center. 0:20:43.840 --> 0:20:46.320 But he also took reps at left guard. 0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:49.760 And haven't gotten to see a whole bunch of Matt Farnac, 0:20:49.840 --> 0:20:51.800 but the film that I was able to watch from 0:20:51.880 --> 0:20:54.560 him against Philly a couple of years ago, and just 0:20:54.600 --> 0:20:57.040 what he's able to do. He does play with some power, 0:20:57.600 --> 0:20:59.960 and I just I feel like this offensive line is 0:21:00.240 --> 0:21:03.800 going to be as of right now, there's so many 0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:07.040 question marks, but it's very contingent on where Terrence is 0:21:07.240 --> 0:21:10.240 in his recovery and stuff, and I think a lot 0:21:10.280 --> 0:21:13.000 of what they're doing right now is kind of preventive 0:21:13.080 --> 0:21:15.000 things and trying to figure out what's going to work 0:21:15.160 --> 0:21:17.480 if he is not ready to go week one. 0:21:17.680 --> 0:21:19.960 Yeah, and something to mention too was that Zach Martin 0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:22.240 didn't participate in OTA, So what we saw was a 0:21:22.320 --> 0:21:24.240 very different O line without Zach Martin. 0:21:24.320 --> 0:21:26.719 So it was it was so weird. 0:21:27.200 --> 0:21:29.440 It was We'd never want to see this team without 0:21:29.480 --> 0:21:33.440 that man and at his rightful position. It was. 0:21:33.840 --> 0:21:35.159 It was very weird seeing it. 0:21:35.240 --> 0:21:38.880 But so what we saw most I think during OTA's 0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:41.520 among the shuffle was you saw Tyler Smith at left tackle, 0:21:41.840 --> 0:21:44.480 left guard, you had Matt Farniyac center, at Tyler Biattish 0:21:44.520 --> 0:21:44.840 right guard. 0:21:44.880 --> 0:21:46.520 You had Josh Ball who was. 0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:48.880 Getting good reps at right guard, and then you had 0:21:49.440 --> 0:21:52.840 Tyrone Smith at right tackle. So again, this is without 0:21:52.920 --> 0:21:55.960 Zach Martin. So this is not your set in stone. 0:21:56.040 --> 0:21:58.600 This is the first media day we got to go 0:21:58.680 --> 0:22:01.199 see OTA's right, So take what we say with a 0:22:01.200 --> 0:22:05.920 grain of salt because it's not set in stone. But yeah, 0:22:05.520 --> 0:22:08.840 that was stressful watching and it was interesting because I 0:22:08.840 --> 0:22:11.840 did talk to Tyler Biattish a lot. I talked to 0:22:11.880 --> 0:22:14.199 him in the locker room after OTAs, and then I 0:22:14.240 --> 0:22:16.640 spent media day with him where we had a bit 0:22:16.680 --> 0:22:18.840 of a weight so I probably was with him for 0:22:18.920 --> 0:22:21.040 an hour, if not a little bit longer than that. 0:22:21.400 --> 0:22:23.880 So we had nothing but time to talk about things. 0:22:23.920 --> 0:22:26.920 And so I asked him, I said, does this make 0:22:27.000 --> 0:22:29.600 you nervous, the fact that you know nothing is really 0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:32.439 set in stone, you don't have your staple guys in 0:22:32.600 --> 0:22:35.639 every set position of this O line. And he said no, 0:22:35.840 --> 0:22:38.719 because what we do get is we get this shuffle 0:22:38.880 --> 0:22:41.159 and I'm able to learn how to communicate and have 0:22:41.280 --> 0:22:44.040 that cadence with every single person, no matter who it is, 0:22:44.320 --> 0:22:46.240 because it really starts from him and then it works 0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:48.000 its way out for the. 0:22:47.960 --> 0:22:49.399 Communication factor of it. 0:22:49.520 --> 0:22:51.639 So he said, I'm not worried about the communication, and 0:22:51.680 --> 0:22:52.960 if I feel like there's a little bit of a 0:22:53.040 --> 0:22:55.840 drop off of communication with somebody, I make sure to 0:22:55.880 --> 0:22:58.280 go work with them individually, one on one to figure out. 0:22:58.119 --> 0:22:58.919 What the issue is. 0:22:59.800 --> 0:23:02.560 So that was that was reassuring to hear that Tyler 0:23:02.600 --> 0:23:04.959 Beattish can can kind of make it work with whoever, 0:23:05.040 --> 0:23:09.720 but that that was what I saw. So yeah, I. 0:23:09.680 --> 0:23:13.760 Wonder if that's the new thing though, Like you mentioned, Haley, 0:23:13.880 --> 0:23:18.000 I'm sorry, I'm no, You're good. But you mentioned continuity, 0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:21.479 and that's something that through the NFL we always hang 0:23:21.520 --> 0:23:23.920 our hat on as far as offensive line. You want continuity, 0:23:23.920 --> 0:23:26.960 you want continuity. But with it being seventeen games in 0:23:27.000 --> 0:23:31.040 a season now, it feels as though this coaching staff 0:23:31.119 --> 0:23:34.840 is preparing for those scenarios because we've seen in the 0:23:34.920 --> 0:23:38.200 last couple of years, specifically with this team, is that 0:23:38.320 --> 0:23:41.159 injuries happened, injuries happened, and you have to learn on 0:23:41.200 --> 0:23:44.399 the fly, and them kind of being preventive about that 0:23:44.520 --> 0:23:47.000 and seeing what they have in these guys right now 0:23:47.200 --> 0:23:50.800 is what's happening, and so I want that to your point, 0:23:50.880 --> 0:23:53.320 I wonder if that is gonna be if this is 0:23:53.440 --> 0:23:56.919 kind of the new standard. Is like, yes, you want continuity, 0:23:56.960 --> 0:23:59.560 you want the best five and everything, but is it 0:23:59.720 --> 0:24:01.720 likely that that best five is going to finish out 0:24:01.760 --> 0:24:03.600 the whole seventeen game season. 0:24:04.000 --> 0:24:06.600 Let's prepare for the worst. I guess you know. 0:24:07.040 --> 0:24:11.000 Yeah, you mentioned Josh Ball and he's a guy who 0:24:11.040 --> 0:24:13.480 I actually have circled on like someone who I'm paying 0:24:13.520 --> 0:24:16.120 attention to this offseason because I wasn't. 0:24:15.960 --> 0:24:17.600 Here for a preseason last year. 0:24:17.600 --> 0:24:19.040 I wasn't here for training camp, so I didn't really 0:24:19.080 --> 0:24:20.439 get to see a ton of who he was. 0:24:20.640 --> 0:24:24.800 You know, at that time. The only Josh Ball I've seen. 0:24:25.600 --> 0:24:29.199 Was the Houston game when we lost Terrence Steel and 0:24:29.280 --> 0:24:34.440 he stepped in for Terrence momentarily before they said Jason 0:24:34.440 --> 0:24:36.399 Peters get out there and handle it. Yeah, and we 0:24:36.480 --> 0:24:38.800 know how that game goes, a ninety eight dark drive 0:24:38.840 --> 0:24:41.960 down the field capped off by that touchdown in Cowboys win. 0:24:42.160 --> 0:24:45.080 So he's actually someone who I've had circled on my 0:24:45.320 --> 0:24:48.240 like roster as far as players to watch because. 0:24:49.680 --> 0:24:51.080 I think very similar to me. 0:24:51.320 --> 0:24:53.480 That's kind of the only taste that Cowboys fans have 0:24:53.520 --> 0:24:55.199 really gotten to see out of him as well. So 0:24:55.200 --> 0:24:57.920 I'm curious to see his progression. You know, how he's 0:24:57.960 --> 0:25:00.880 going to fit all that good stuff. Yeah, the offensive 0:25:00.920 --> 0:25:06.560 line is definitely uh important, and it's it's it's there. 0:25:06.800 --> 0:25:09.760 Yeah, you know, I'm a lost for something. 0:25:09.800 --> 0:25:12.760 I also wanted to make sure to mention that I 0:25:13.119 --> 0:25:15.679 meant to mention the last segment, but you totally just 0:25:15.840 --> 0:25:18.600 spark my brain when you mentioned the tight ends, and 0:25:18.640 --> 0:25:19.639 you don't want them to block. 0:25:20.440 --> 0:25:21.840 No, no, no, I want them to block. 0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:23.960 You don't want you don't want them to be laser focused. 0:25:23.960 --> 0:25:31.280 You want them more involved. Sure is Haley wants them 0:25:31.280 --> 0:25:32.840 to block. Hayley wants them to block. 0:25:33.200 --> 0:25:33.280 No. 0:25:33.600 --> 0:25:35.719 It's interesting because we finally got to see all of 0:25:35.760 --> 0:25:39.159 them standing next to each other, and man, they're like 0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:40.280 clones of each other. 0:25:40.480 --> 0:25:40.880 Kids. 0:25:40.920 --> 0:25:41.760 It's insane. 0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:44.919 The poor horsemen are insane. And they were getting a 0:25:44.920 --> 0:25:48.480 lot of really good reps. I mean, you saw Scoon 0:25:48.560 --> 0:25:52.840 Maker in there, you saw Jake, you saw Peyton, you saw. 0:25:52.720 --> 0:25:55.280 Even Sean getting a lot of good reps as well. 0:25:55.359 --> 0:25:58.199 So what I really like too is it seems like 0:25:58.560 --> 0:26:04.240 they're really focused on not only you know, blocking, like. 0:26:04.160 --> 0:26:05.920 You said, but the reps that I did see. 0:26:06.080 --> 0:26:08.560 You saw Jake Ferguson making some good plays. 0:26:08.359 --> 0:26:11.720 He was spree, he was ready, he was ready to go. 0:26:11.920 --> 0:26:13.800 Yes, I'm so glad you mentioned him as it was 0:26:13.960 --> 0:26:16.919 so good because that you can see in his movement. 0:26:17.119 --> 0:26:20.000 I think titand is such a refined position. If you 0:26:20.040 --> 0:26:22.040 can be an athlete and everything, but it takes time 0:26:22.080 --> 0:26:24.480 to understand, like the body of a tight end, the 0:26:24.520 --> 0:26:28.439 way that they play angles, and he seems like he's 0:26:28.480 --> 0:26:31.439 getting it, and watching him, he seems more free in 0:26:31.480 --> 0:26:31.879 his play. 0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:32.719 You can tell so. 0:26:33.119 --> 0:26:35.440 And I saw that he got invited to Travis Kelsey's 0:26:35.440 --> 0:26:37.320 camp and stuff, and these are all things that are 0:26:37.320 --> 0:26:39.320 going to help him be better. But you can tell 0:26:39.400 --> 0:26:41.080 he's put in work in the off season. You can 0:26:41.080 --> 0:26:44.320 tell he's put in work, playbook, and also taking care 0:26:44.359 --> 0:26:44.919 of his body. 0:26:45.280 --> 0:26:47.679 And you heard it here first because I got to 0:26:47.720 --> 0:26:50.160 talk to Schoonmaker yesterday, and y'all know I've been hanging 0:26:50.240 --> 0:26:51.840 high on this since he mentioned I want to talk 0:26:51.840 --> 0:26:52.639 to Chason Witten. 0:26:52.920 --> 0:26:54.520 I want to know and I asked him. I was like, 0:26:54.560 --> 0:26:55.879 did you get in contact with him? 0:26:55.880 --> 0:26:58.720 And he said yes, And I learned so much it 0:26:58.760 --> 0:27:00.960 almost felt like my head was growing from all the 0:27:01.000 --> 0:27:04.520 things he was telling me. And so unfortunately we're in 0:27:04.600 --> 0:27:07.000 media days, everyone's being taken every which way, and I 0:27:07.040 --> 0:27:07.640 was like, what. 0:27:07.640 --> 0:27:08.320 Did he say? 0:27:08.440 --> 0:27:11.400 And then my player, who was Tyler Biattist at the time, 0:27:11.560 --> 0:27:13.080 was done, so I had to go to the next station. 0:27:13.119 --> 0:27:15.640 I was like, hold that thought, we will come back 0:27:15.680 --> 0:27:17.639 to this conversation. So I really hope I get to 0:27:18.720 --> 0:27:20.320 go back and talk to him, But he did talk 0:27:20.359 --> 0:27:22.680 to Jason Witton and he said he really was soaking 0:27:22.720 --> 0:27:24.800 it in from the two minutes I got to talk 0:27:24.840 --> 0:27:27.160 to him about it. So you've heard it here. First 0:27:27.200 --> 0:27:29.760 they got in contact. So let's see what a Let's 0:27:29.760 --> 0:27:31.639 see what Scoon can take from what Jason Wentten had 0:27:31.680 --> 0:27:32.160 to tell him. 0:27:32.280 --> 0:27:34.439 It's interesting as well with those tight ends because you 0:27:35.040 --> 0:27:37.479 the assumption is with Dalton Schultz no longer being here, 0:27:37.520 --> 0:27:39.800 that Jake Ferguson is the natural shoe in to take 0:27:39.840 --> 0:27:42.919 over that Dalton Schultz role, right, Like that's just it 0:27:43.000 --> 0:27:45.720 makes sense. But when you look at how competitive that 0:27:45.800 --> 0:27:47.840 room truly is. I know, we always talk and we 0:27:47.960 --> 0:27:50.399 joke about them being the besties, the four horsemen, and 0:27:50.440 --> 0:27:52.760 they are, like they're so tight on and off the field, 0:27:53.119 --> 0:27:56.680 which is tremendous. It is also tremendous because it creates competition, 0:27:57.160 --> 0:28:01.280 and I really believe that spoon Mayer is going to 0:28:01.320 --> 0:28:04.040 challenge Jake on some of those first team reps. I 0:28:04.040 --> 0:28:08.159 think he is going to be a significant contributor to 0:28:08.400 --> 0:28:12.600 this team from a blocking standpoint, but also getting more 0:28:12.640 --> 0:28:14.840 involved in the offense. I know we've talked about it before, 0:28:15.400 --> 0:28:17.080 just the system that he came from in Michigan. 0:28:17.119 --> 0:28:19.200 He's already prepared to play at the professional level. 0:28:19.960 --> 0:28:24.040 So I think it's very good that Jake is taking 0:28:24.080 --> 0:28:25.880 strides to become that tight end one. 0:28:25.920 --> 0:28:27.320 And you can tell from his attitude too. 0:28:27.320 --> 0:28:30.240 He's always kind of had that kind of swaggy dominant, 0:28:30.920 --> 0:28:33.800 you know, like I'm the dude kind of energy. You 0:28:33.800 --> 0:28:35.439 see that a little bit more, but it's like this 0:28:35.560 --> 0:28:37.480 much more mature. Yeah, you know what I mean, Like 0:28:37.520 --> 0:28:40.960 he's carrying. He's still the same swaggy, tatted up Jake Ferguson, 0:28:41.200 --> 0:28:44.880 who you know is he's cool and he's chill, but 0:28:44.960 --> 0:28:46.800 it's just like this much more refined. 0:28:46.840 --> 0:28:49.920 And that's also because they drafted a tight end and 0:28:50.360 --> 0:28:51.760 like you know what I'm saying, Like they drafted a 0:28:51.800 --> 0:28:54.240 tight end in the second round and so that lights 0:28:54.280 --> 0:28:57.040 fire to his but too, you know, to let him know, 0:28:57.520 --> 0:29:00.320 to let him know that, you know, you know, you 0:29:00.360 --> 0:29:02.280 got to keep working, You've got to keep getting better. 0:29:02.320 --> 0:29:06.640 And yeah, a competition, mich McCarthy's huge about competition. 0:29:07.000 --> 0:29:10.080 Trying to camp Bath be crazy. The competition in all 0:29:10.120 --> 0:29:11.320 the different spots. 0:29:12.960 --> 0:29:15.720 It is going to be sensational.

All right, shifting gears 0:32:12.040 --> 0:32:15.560 here for our last block. Last week, I believe it 0:32:15.600 --> 0:32:18.360 was last week. Last week, the NFL Network put out 0:32:18.400 --> 0:32:22.160 the top ten most competitive rosters up until this point, 0:32:22.560 --> 0:32:24.520 and I'm gonna read you guys to top five, So 0:32:24.800 --> 0:32:27.920 coming in at number one. Unfortunately, the Philadelphia Eagles number 0:32:27.920 --> 0:32:31.040 two Kansas City Chiefs, number three the San Francisco forty 0:32:31.120 --> 0:32:33.480 nine ers, and number four the Cincinnati Bengals. 0:32:33.480 --> 0:32:35.960 Guess who's number five? Spoiler alert they. 0:32:35.840 --> 0:32:37.520 Got up let the Cowboys at five, and it's your 0:32:37.600 --> 0:32:39.040 Dallas Cowboys. 0:32:39.320 --> 0:32:41.880 They have in terms of what they did in the 0:32:41.920 --> 0:32:43.840 off season, in terms of what they did, you know, 0:32:43.920 --> 0:32:46.600 in free agency, all that stuff. The Cowboys are going 0:32:46.600 --> 0:32:49.840 into twenty twenty three as of right now as the number. 0:32:49.680 --> 0:32:53.600 Five most complete roster. Now we know there's obviously still 0:32:53.600 --> 0:32:53.960 some holes. 0:32:54.000 --> 0:32:56.720 We talked about the kicker position, the office and blind 0:32:56.720 --> 0:32:58.880 there's still some holes as well, and a couple other 0:32:58.920 --> 0:33:00.960 places where they can do some move in and shift 0:33:00.960 --> 0:33:04.600 in and and all that good stuff. But something that 0:33:04.640 --> 0:33:07.920 did come out this morning because of the June first deadline, 0:33:08.480 --> 0:33:10.240 a lot more cap space has been freed up. 0:33:10.240 --> 0:33:12.120 A lot of that because of Ezekiel Elliott. So the 0:33:12.160 --> 0:33:13.400 Cowboys have roughly. 0:33:13.160 --> 0:33:16.880 Ten point nine million dollars freed in cap space because 0:33:16.880 --> 0:33:20.680 of when they did the release for Ezekiel Elliott. So 0:33:21.160 --> 0:33:23.480 my question for you ladies as we wrap up this show, 0:33:23.640 --> 0:33:24.840 where do you spend that money? 0:33:24.840 --> 0:33:26.520 Do you spend it at all? What do you do? 0:33:26.720 --> 0:33:30.120 Kicker kicker, kicker? 0:33:30.920 --> 0:33:31.040 Here? 0:33:31.160 --> 0:33:34.000 Are you telling me that I could make Hayley go? 0:33:34.720 --> 0:33:35.280 Why are you. 0:33:35.280 --> 0:33:37.240 Still sitting here, ma'am Hailey? 0:33:37.440 --> 0:33:40.440 I'll man, I'm gonna have to drop the video. 0:33:40.520 --> 0:33:43.400 So for for reference, I played soccer in college, obviously, 0:33:44.360 --> 0:33:46.920 but when I was working in Alabama, I did a 0:33:47.000 --> 0:33:49.920 story over a young lady who was the first high 0:33:49.920 --> 0:33:52.760 school female kicker in Auburn high school history. She's the 0:33:52.760 --> 0:33:54.840 coolest girl ever, Ellie Rodney. To this day, I still 0:33:54.920 --> 0:33:57.160 keep up with her. She's awesome. But I did a 0:33:57.200 --> 0:33:59.479 story with her, and she taught me how to kick 0:33:59.480 --> 0:34:01.560 a field goal, and she walked me through it one 0:34:01.560 --> 0:34:04.840 by one, piece by piece, And I kid you not. 0:34:05.680 --> 0:34:07.280 I'm bragging a little bit, but I kid you not. 0:34:07.760 --> 0:34:11.680 My first field goal attempt was about thirty five out. 0:34:11.840 --> 0:34:13.560 Okay, so why are you sitting here? 0:34:13.800 --> 0:34:14.759 Go talk to both? 0:34:14.840 --> 0:34:15.120 Wait? 0:34:15.400 --> 0:34:18.880 Wait, it's about thirty five yards out. I was wearing 0:34:19.440 --> 0:34:21.520 Vans jeans and. 0:34:21.440 --> 0:34:24.279 A polo flex on him, man, and y'all. 0:34:24.080 --> 0:34:26.640 I'm not gonna lie. I drilled it. Tell him I 0:34:26.719 --> 0:34:27.080 drilled it. 0:34:27.360 --> 0:34:30.400 Will I will read, I'll find the video. It's on Twitter, 0:34:30.440 --> 0:34:32.319 I'll find it. I will post it up. 0:34:32.440 --> 0:34:33.800 But I'm not kidding, y'all. I'm a boller. 0:34:33.920 --> 0:34:36.560 Look, do you have workout clothes with you? O start 0:34:36.600 --> 0:34:39.400 again in a couple hours. I'm gonna need you ready 0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:39.719 to go. 0:34:39.960 --> 0:34:41.720 We'll see, let's see in the little pads. 0:34:43.080 --> 0:34:47.600 No, it's I say kicker because Jerry specifically talked about, 0:34:47.719 --> 0:34:51.439 you know, when we talked to him recently, about how 0:34:51.480 --> 0:34:55.000 he wants somebody who's a little bit younger as compared 0:34:55.040 --> 0:34:57.759 to an older guy. Which makes sense, right. You want 0:34:57.760 --> 0:34:59.680 somebody to grow within your organization. You don't want to 0:34:59.719 --> 0:35:02.880 keep wor about this kicker situation season after season after season. 0:35:03.160 --> 0:35:06.160 You need stability within your kicker. And I think you 0:35:06.200 --> 0:35:10.160 know when you look at what happened last season with 0:35:10.320 --> 0:35:15.560 Brett maher is he still remains the top scorer in 0:35:15.640 --> 0:35:18.799 the NFL. I mean you're talking about a kicker. It 0:35:18.880 --> 0:35:22.319 was beating out everybody that had the most points in 0:35:22.400 --> 0:35:26.200 the NFL. And the thing is is, yes, we know 0:35:26.280 --> 0:35:30.800 what happened come playoff time. We understand why the decision 0:35:30.880 --> 0:35:33.920 is to you know, not have him in the conversation anymore. 0:35:34.400 --> 0:35:37.680 But you also see what a difference that made within 0:35:38.120 --> 0:35:41.680 those crunch time games when you needed the kicker Brett 0:35:41.719 --> 0:35:45.960 Maher was there, especially when you're talking the first what 0:35:46.200 --> 0:35:49.000 five weeks of the season post Dak Prescott thumb injury 0:35:49.480 --> 0:35:51.920 and Cooper Rush was kind of getting his feet on 0:35:51.960 --> 0:35:54.200 the ground. You knew you could count on the kicking game, 0:35:54.320 --> 0:35:56.560 and it was just a good place to be in 0:35:57.040 --> 0:35:58.759 for me. If you want a younger guy, you need 0:35:58.800 --> 0:36:01.040 to invest in somebody, and you need to have that incentive, 0:36:01.080 --> 0:36:03.200 which is, yes, you're coming to play for the Dallas Cowboys, 0:36:03.200 --> 0:36:05.160 but here's a little bit of extra cash, you know, 0:36:05.320 --> 0:36:07.720 spend on the kicker. Don't be cheap on the kicker, 0:36:07.800 --> 0:36:11.280 because again, it is such an important part of this game. 0:36:11.640 --> 0:36:13.319 And I don't want to sit here and worry about 0:36:13.360 --> 0:36:14.520 this kicker situation anymore. 0:36:14.560 --> 0:36:15.000 It's stressed. 0:36:15.040 --> 0:36:17.799 It is one of those things if I think about 0:36:17.800 --> 0:36:19.200 it too much before I go to bed, I'm. 0:36:19.080 --> 0:36:21.200 Not going to bed like that. It's just it's eating me. 0:36:21.560 --> 0:36:23.399 You need to read a book you like it got 0:36:23.440 --> 0:36:23.880 you like that. 0:36:25.040 --> 0:36:27.399 I've been I've been stressing because here's the thing. 0:36:28.880 --> 0:36:31.440 This is no shade to trist Tristan it all right, 0:36:31.480 --> 0:36:34.680 this is no shade. But you need healthy competition in here. 0:36:34.800 --> 0:36:37.759 Because we saw what happened last season. I mean, we're 0:36:37.760 --> 0:36:39.720 talking all the way up until training camp before Brett 0:36:39.719 --> 0:36:42.560 Mahert came in, and even then Brett Maher's history with 0:36:42.600 --> 0:36:46.520 the Cowboys prior, nobody was really excited about it at first, 0:36:46.520 --> 0:36:48.319 and then you know, he had his growth, he did 0:36:48.320 --> 0:36:50.399 everything he needed to do. But all that to say, 0:36:52.160 --> 0:36:55.120 I'm I am worried about the O line where it 0:36:55.160 --> 0:36:59.960 stands and words a heavy word, I'm I'm I'm concerned 0:37:00.360 --> 0:37:02.160 to what it looks like right now. 0:37:02.360 --> 0:37:04.080 I will not be concerned come September. 0:37:04.160 --> 0:37:06.640 I know that, right Yeah, so where it is right now, 0:37:07.040 --> 0:37:10.560 But kicker, I'm concerned about where kicker stands right now. 0:37:10.840 --> 0:37:12.600 It's a big question mark what it can look like 0:37:12.640 --> 0:37:15.840 come September, especially when you're talking about these big, shining 0:37:15.960 --> 0:37:19.640 names that are still available and kickers a position that 0:37:19.680 --> 0:37:22.160 every team can always spruce up if they don't have 0:37:22.200 --> 0:37:23.879 somebody that's dependable and. 0:37:23.840 --> 0:37:28.840 Reliable kicker, Kicker spend on a kicker Well yeah, kicker, 0:37:29.200 --> 0:37:33.880 clearly she was not playing, but yeah, so of course kicker. 0:37:35.280 --> 0:37:38.239 I think the Cowboy's gonna either hold on to that 0:37:38.320 --> 0:37:40.520 change and see what happens in training camp, see if 0:37:40.520 --> 0:37:42.600 somebody get danged up see if there's a need there, 0:37:42.880 --> 0:37:45.960 I will say my spody sense to start tingling when 0:37:46.000 --> 0:37:49.399 you said that, Yeah, when you said that Josh Ball 0:37:49.560 --> 0:37:53.719 was playing right guard, and I know he was, but 0:37:53.960 --> 0:37:56.000 if is he the backup right guard? 0:37:56.600 --> 0:37:57.919 To all right, We're. 0:37:57.800 --> 0:38:00.600 Gonna talk about that another day, but that you So 0:38:00.680 --> 0:38:04.239 it's to Zach Martin so that I. 0:38:04.200 --> 0:38:07.399 Hate throwing shade to these guys because it's so nice. 0:38:07.400 --> 0:38:09.520 We're evaluating shade barnacles. 0:38:09.520 --> 0:38:11.680 And the thing is is anything you we say on here, 0:38:11.760 --> 0:38:16.040 we would tell them, and that is that's important to know. 0:38:16.200 --> 0:38:19.600 O line help, possibly bring in someone for you know, 0:38:19.760 --> 0:38:22.240 O line help, if that's possible. 0:38:22.280 --> 0:38:25.680 But I also to if. 0:38:24.840 --> 0:38:26.560 I'm not mistaken, I don't know if it's CD or 0:38:26.600 --> 0:38:29.839 Trayvon is I think CD has the fifth year, but 0:38:29.920 --> 0:38:31.520 Trayvon year. 0:38:31.600 --> 0:38:34.200 Trayvon is in a contract yere, so there could be. 0:38:34.600 --> 0:38:38.520 You know, maybe conversations of talking about his cash or 0:38:38.520 --> 0:38:41.520 however they decide to do that going into next season, 0:38:41.600 --> 0:38:43.640 just to kind of settle things out, so there's not 0:38:43.800 --> 0:38:44.959 that I'm. 0:38:44.880 --> 0:38:47.160 Gonna get paid all during the season and stuff. 0:38:47.200 --> 0:38:49.439 So maybe that's something they do, but they're gonna hold 0:38:49.480 --> 0:38:50.080 onto that coin. 0:38:50.080 --> 0:38:51.160 They're gonna see what they. 0:38:51.040 --> 0:38:53.799 Got at training camp and uh, and then they'll make 0:38:53.840 --> 0:38:55.360 their decisions from there, because I think they brought they 0:38:55.400 --> 0:39:00.400 brought inter camp, right, yeah, Anthony Barr Camp the Kicker 0:39:01.080 --> 0:39:04.880 her cam.

Everybody don't 0:42:52.760 --> 0:42:55.080 come in here like Mazi. Everybody don't come in here 0:42:55.120 --> 0:42:55.440 like that. 0:42:55.719 --> 0:42:58.120 Can I just say, yesterday was the first time I've 0:42:58.120 --> 0:43:04.040 actually stood close to me was like, hello, you are 0:43:04.080 --> 0:43:06.799 a human wall like, what is going on? 0:43:06.840 --> 0:43:09.680 And he's so nice too, So it's just like that's 0:43:09.719 --> 0:43:12.640 how I feel about Junior.

There's a lightheartedness to 0:43:28.239 --> 0:43:30.439 a lot of the gentlemen that they drift. 0:43:31.200 --> 0:43:33.440 And it's I think it's healthy for the locker room. 0:43:33.480 --> 0:43:35.879 I really do think it's healthy to have you have 0:43:35.920 --> 0:43:37.880 some some somewhat older guys.

When you're talking about a handful of football 0:44:11.600 --> 0:44:14.480 players that need to take different videos and pictures, you 0:44:14.480 --> 0:44:15.640 can get a little chaotic. 0:44:15.760 --> 0:44:15.960 Yeah. 0:44:16.120 --> 0:44:18.239 So I'm walking around and I'm holding their pads and 0:44:18.239 --> 0:44:20.719 their helmets and I'm like, it's okay, guys, I got this. 0:44:21.480 --> 0:44:24.480 You are carrying all their Yeah, oh yeah, we're carrying around. 0:44:24.920 --> 0:44:29.040 And so it was.

I mean, I 0:44:36.200 --> 0:44:38.600 didn't know his love for Pink Star Wars really went 0:44:38.680 --> 0:44:42.360 as far as it did, guys, but he loves specifically 0:44:42.400 --> 0:44:43.160 the Pink star Wars. 0:44:43.239 --> 0:44:45.720 I was like, have that in common, best flavor? 0:44:46.320 --> 0:44:48.120 But what I really liked talking about him too, And 0:44:48.400 --> 0:44:51.080 I mentioned this from my first reaction of him was 0:44:51.480 --> 0:44:53.640 the family and the importance of his family. 0:44:54.000 --> 0:44:55.680 The whole time we were there, we were talking. 0:44:55.520 --> 0:44:58.120 About our families because that's all he wanted to talk 0:44:58.160 --> 0:45:01.200 about was his family, his love for his family, the food, 0:45:01.360 --> 0:45:01.880 the culture. 0:45:01.880 --> 0:45:04.480 It just it was so interesting digging into his brain. 0:45:04.560 --> 0:45:06.960 And so when you talk about they have a type, 0:45:06.640 --> 0:45:10.759 it's it's this very healthy locker room culture. Because there 0:45:10.800 --> 0:45:12.600 was one point where we were all in a room 0:45:12.640 --> 0:45:17.280 with it was Cooper Rush, Will Greer, Tyler Biattish, Tyler Smith, 0:45:17.560 --> 0:45:20.960 Cavante Turpin, Brandon Cooks, and they're all talking amongst each other. 0:45:21.000 --> 0:45:23.000 I mean you're talking about guys in different spots and 0:45:23.320 --> 0:45:25.400 they were all just such a team. And you know what, 0:45:25.480 --> 0:45:28.040 I really one of the main things I took out 0:45:28.080 --> 0:45:30.839 of media days and getting to be part of that 0:45:31.040 --> 0:45:34.960 was that Brandon Cooks. We talked about setting the example. 0:45:35.680 --> 0:45:37.680 I mean, you're talking about a guy who's waiting in 0:45:37.680 --> 0:45:40.839 a room for forty five minutes, sitting there, not complaining, 0:45:41.239 --> 0:45:44.160 not you know, getting anxious about it, but making conversation 0:45:44.280 --> 0:45:47.640 with the promo team and his teammates and making the 0:45:47.640 --> 0:45:50.279 best of the time that he was there. Anybody in 0:45:50.280 --> 0:45:52.160 that position but the football player or not, would be like, 0:45:52.160 --> 0:45:53.560 why am I waiting forty five minutes? 0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:54.280 This is crazy? 0:45:54.280 --> 0:45:55.400 I mean you think about when you go to a 0:45:55.400 --> 0:45:57.480 doctor's appointment, right and you're sitting in the waiting room, 0:45:57.640 --> 0:45:59.800 you get antsy, you get annoyed. No, Brandon Cooks was 0:45:59.800 --> 0:46:02.200 sitting there and just it was it was easy to 0:46:02.200 --> 0:46:04.719 see how the guys around him wide receiver or not 0:46:05.080 --> 0:46:07.920 we're taking suit to If Brandon's not complaining about sitting 0:46:07.920 --> 0:46:10.359 here for forty five minutes, I can't really complain either. 0:46:10.480 --> 0:46:12.400 So that was really cool to see firsthand. 0:46:12.440 --> 0:46:14.680 Your quarterback is good too. I just want to throw 0:46:14.719 --> 0:46:17.440 that out there and talk about everyone knows like no 0:46:17.480 --> 0:46:18.080 one has. 0:46:18.160 --> 0:46:20.359 And again it's I think it's just because he's he's 0:46:20.360 --> 0:46:22.760 his dack at this point and his OTAs and stuff. 0:46:22.760 --> 0:46:26.279 But he looks sharp. He sounds mentally sharp, y'all. A 0:46:26.280 --> 0:46:28.839 little on a should too, you know what I'm saying, Like, yeah, 0:46:29.239 --> 0:46:32.040 but I wanted to definitely mention the fact that he 0:46:32.160 --> 0:46:34.520 looks sharp and he again looks like he's in total 0:46:34.520 --> 0:46:37.000 control of this offense and what it's just and what's 0:46:37.080 --> 0:46:40.360 going on and his supreme confidence just you know, radius 0:46:40.440 --> 0:46:42.960 through the team. I wanted to highlight him because he 0:46:43.080 --> 0:46:45.839 is their leader and they follow him also as well. 0:46:45.880 --> 0:46:48.240 So yeah, I'm excited to get to chat with him today. 0:46:48.320 --> 0:46:51.319 Before we go, I found my girl Ellie.
