Welcome to another edition of The Break. We 9 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: are alive. I am from the virtual s WB Mortgage 10 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: studios in my home, joined by Nick Eatman, Dave helm 11 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: and Amber Garcia. Nick's at the start to day although 12 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: the team's practicing in the afternoon today, camp is now 13 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 1: over there starting to hit more of a rhythm that 14 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: they will hit similar to what they will do in 15 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: the season. But today we gotta show for you guys. 16 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk a little bit about some injuries, some 17 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: guys that have not been practicing here over the last 18 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: few days. We'll also get to the fifty three man roster. 19 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: Have these guys pinned down for you? What you think 20 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: will happen with the top fifty three And as we 21 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: end the show, we will have a little bit of 22 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: a ramp cap wrap up of camp with a few 23 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 1: standout players that these guys have seen throughout the duration 24 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: of training camp. How's everybody doing today? Wonderful, good, awesome. 25 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: Let's jump right in. Let's get into some of these injuries. 26 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: I think the most important one that we probably need 27 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: to talk about is Amari Cooper, although I'm not certain 28 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: that there is an injury to really refer to. Jerry 29 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: Jones talked about it yesterday. Dave, I think you mentioned 30 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: in a tweet that he hadn't been practicing in team 31 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: drills over a few practices. Tell me what Jerry said, 32 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: and then kind of what you think about it. Let's 33 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: start with you, Dave. Yeah, I mean, so, you know, 34 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: Amari hasn't really done much in a team setting since 35 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: probably last Thursday. It's been about three practices since he 36 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: really had a heavy workload. Uh. Jerry Jones said yesterday 37 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: morning that it's really more about precaution and monitoring. He mentioned, 38 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: you know, the GPS and the tracking devices that they use. 39 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: They thought that Amari had been exerting himself plenty, and 40 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: you know, maybe in the interest of preventing some sort 41 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: of strain. They kind of dialed him back. The thing, 42 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 1: the thing that makes me feel okay about it is 43 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,679 Speaker 1: that you know, he's still doing stuff. You know, he 44 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: suits up every day and he's gone through individual warm 45 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: ups and he's gotten a couple you know, routes in 46 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: individual drills and stuff like that over the last three 47 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: or four days. You know, it doesn't seem like he's 48 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: drastically injured. Like Jerry said, I think they're just being 49 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: cautious with a guy who has had a history of 50 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: lower body injuries. Yeah, you know, it's interesting. I saw 51 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,839 Speaker 1: some people on social media that I guess the best 52 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: way to describe it is they were a little bit like, 53 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm buying all of this with 54 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: regards to to that. But the way I look at 55 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 1: it is, I think it kind of rides with with 56 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: what we've seen from Lyle Collins too. He didn't really 57 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: have an injury that we were told. It sounded like 58 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: they just kind of wanted to get him to a 59 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 1: certain place before he started practicing, And I think that 60 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 1: probably points a little bit to maybe them seeing something 61 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: through what they'd seen in his workouts heading into camp. 62 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: Maybe some of the analytics involved. Nick, what are your 63 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: thoughts on that and just kind of haul this plays 64 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: out well. I don't think anything has changed as far 65 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: as the way they're getting players ready to play. McCarthy 66 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: might have a different approach than Jason Garrett, but you know, 67 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: to me, the you know, the trainers, the doctors, they're 68 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: they're the same, and they're going to continue to kind 69 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: of to work these guys where be Lyle or Maury 70 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: Cooper or you know, the goal here always is September 71 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: thirteenth against the Rams, So everybody's got a difference, you know, 72 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: whether it be an injury, ailment, illness, whatever it is. 73 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: I don't think that the plan is any different than 74 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: it was before because you know, the trainers and doctors 75 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: haven't changed really since in twenty five years, thirty years. Really, 76 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: let's go ahead and get to us some of the 77 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: other injuries. Let's talk about the defensive back position. There 78 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: are a number of injuries there. You got Xavier Woods 79 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: that that's been out of practice. I think he left 80 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: during the during Cowboys Night on Sunday. You had Chito 81 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 1: who has been missing a couple of practices. You have 82 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis has been out for a little bit. Talk 83 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: to me about how those guys are at this point 84 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,239 Speaker 1: and when they're expected to return. Let's go to you Amber. 85 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: What do you have on that. Well, as far as 86 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: I've heard, none of them are really major injuries. The 87 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: only thing that concerns me obviously, this is a position 88 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: that was already of need. So it sucks that a 89 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: couple of weeks prior to when we are expecting to 90 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: start the season, that these guys who are veteran guys 91 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: are now struggling with certain injuries. And I'm sure they're 92 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 1: doing the best to monitor them and be as cautionary 93 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: as they that they can be. But as far as 94 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: from what I've heard, these are nothing like major injuries, 95 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: so not too concerning, but still something to keep an 96 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: eye on. It's also interesting that you look at a 97 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: guy like Luke Gifford, who is by all accounts trying 98 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: to make this team, a guy that missed a significant 99 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: part last year due to injury. He has also been 100 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: on the injury poor Dave. What do we know about 101 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: Luke Gifford. We know that we haven't seen Louke Gifford 102 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: practice in a week or more, and that's actually I 103 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: was going to bring that up about Jordan Lewis too. 104 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't get the feeling that any of 105 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: these are serious injuries, but this is such a shortened 106 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: training camp. I mean, a two week injuries not a 107 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: big deal when training camp is six weeks long. But Jordan, 108 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: you know, Jordan went out on like the third day 109 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 1: of practice and he hasn't been back, which you know, 110 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 1: he's a fourth year vetter and he can probably deal 111 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: with that, but it's still not ideal, even more so 112 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 1: for Luke Gifford. I don't get the feeling that this 113 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: is a super long term injury. But camp is over, 114 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: and Luke Gifford hasn't you know, fifty percent of that. 115 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: He hasn't had a chance to show his stuff. I 116 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: wonder if that's going to hurt him because you know, 117 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: this isn't the coaching staff that brought him in that 118 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: was absolutely in love with him last summer. This is 119 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: a completely different group of guys, and you know the 120 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: fact that they haven't been able to see a full 121 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: camp from him, it's it's kind of concerning if I'm 122 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: Luke Gifford in my opinion at least, yeah, and it's 123 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: going to be. I assume that's that's one of the positions, 124 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 1: and we'll talk a little bit about more when we 125 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: get to the linebacker position. That's one of the positions 126 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: where I feel like it's gonna be tight and trying 127 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: to make the team at the linebacker positions gonna be 128 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: tough because they got a lot of quality players at 129 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: that position, and and we'll talk a little bit more 130 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: about that when we get there, of how this might 131 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: affect him. But that's what we're gonna do. Now. We're 132 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: gonna jump into the fifty three man roster. The way 133 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: I broke this down is we're gonna go through each position. 134 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk a little bit about the guys that 135 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: are there, the guys we know that are for sure, 136 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,119 Speaker 1: and guys that we think are kind of on the bubble, 137 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: and let you guys give some opinions about that. We'll 138 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: get to the end of it, and that's when we 139 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: will look back and see, Okay, here's the total number 140 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: of players that we think are for sure, here's what 141 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: we think we've got left, and here the areas where 142 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: you can choose from. And then we'll try to figure 143 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: out what those who those last few spots should be. 144 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: Let's start first with the specialists. So I don't think 145 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: there's a ton of questions about who's gonna make the team. 146 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: You've got Greg Zerline, you got Chris Jones, you got 147 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: LP Ltdiser. They're all gonna be on the team. I 148 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: do have one question for you guys. I'll start with 149 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: you Nick. What do you think are how comfortable are 150 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: you or what are your feelings right now with regards 151 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: to Chris Jones as a punter, coming off a year 152 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: where he wasn't at his best? What are your thoughts there? 153 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: My thoughts are that he's going to have a different 154 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: coach here and John Fossil who's been really good with 155 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: punters over the years, Don Johnny Hecker, and so I'm 156 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: just thinking that, you know, a change of scenery might 157 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: help with a little bit of philosophy, you know. And 158 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: he's he's a good punter, he's been injured. I think 159 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: he'll he'll get better, you know, this year that he's healthy. 160 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: That's kind of the goal for zer Line, that's the 161 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: goal for Chris Jones as well, that then maybe they 162 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: can get back to where he was. Sounds good, Yeah, 163 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: and that's the tough part is will he be able 164 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: to get back there? But I think going into this season, 165 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: the hope is that he can get back to that point. 166 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: I think Greg Zerline is another guy that coming off 167 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 1: last year wasn't his best year, but the expectation is 168 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: that he will be better this year. He certainly has 169 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: been stella throughout camp and we'll see how that goes 170 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 1: as we had into the season. Let's move on to 171 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: the quarterback position. The Cowboys have what we know, They're 172 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: definitely gonna have two people that are quarterbacks that will 173 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: be on this roster, Dak Prescott, Andy Dalton. My question 174 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 1: for you guys is is this scenario where the Cowboys 175 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,719 Speaker 1: maybe could go short and only carry two, knowing that 176 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: they have two quarterbacks who are highly skilled, who are 177 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: very experienced, and just try to ride with that, versus 178 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: having a third guy on the team. Let's start first 179 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: with you, Aner, what do you think about that? I've 180 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: been going back and forth. Me personally, I think I 181 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: would just keep two. But for the Cowboys, I think 182 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: that they would go ahead and keep de Nucci as well, 183 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: especially because even though they say they're gonna come into 184 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: an agreement with Dak prescot and figure out the contract deal. 185 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 1: You just never know what's gonna happen. And de Nucci 186 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: is a young guy who has had a good camp. 187 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: He's shown some ability, he's shown some good stuff. So 188 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: I don't think they they'll be okay with just letting 189 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: him go. I think that they keep three quarterbacks in 190 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: this scenario. Dave, Yeah. I mean, you know, if we 191 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: had played five free seas and games, we might we 192 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: might have a better idea. You know, if if Denucci 193 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: had been terrible throughout the course of the preseason, maybe 194 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: you you part ways. But I just don't think the 195 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: Cowboys have seen enough. You know, it's it's two and 196 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: a half weeks of practice and no games. They drafted 197 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 1: the guy, Mike McCarthy obviously really likes him. Mike McCarthy 198 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: also has a history of keeping three quarterbacks, and I just, 199 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 1: you know, I'd be pretty surprised if he's not on 200 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: the team. I know, you know, you can protect guys 201 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: on the practice squad this year, at least two of them, 202 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: I believe. But they've still got to go through waivers first. 203 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,559 Speaker 1: And you know, there were at least a couple other 204 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: teams interested in signing him after the draft. That's why 205 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys picked him. So I'd be pretty surprised if 206 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: they cut him. Honestly, Nick, I, you know you don't 207 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: need him, You certainly don't need to keep him. But 208 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: but I understand why they would say that, because they 209 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: drafted him for a reason. So I probably would not 210 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 1: keep him on the roster. I think you need spots 211 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: another place. All right, Let's go ahead, move on to 212 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: to the running back position. Cowboys half for sure, Zeke 213 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: Elliott Tony Pollard. So we know that there are two 214 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: that are definitely going to be on the roster. The 215 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,199 Speaker 1: question becomes do the Cowboys keep a third running back? 216 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: And also should the Cowboys consider keeping a fullback? And 217 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: should they consider maybe keeping both keeping a third running 218 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 1: back and a fullback. Let's start first with you, Dave, 219 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: Where do you go on that? I just got the two. 220 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, they did it last year. 221 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: You know, Tony and Zeke were the only two backs 222 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: running backs they had Jamazela Wally. Obviously that's not an 223 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: option this year, you know, at the risk of getting 224 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: into their scheme and strategy, like we simply have not 225 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: seen them do a lot of stuff with fullbacks at 226 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: this camp. Shwo Alana lou is the only one here, 227 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 1: and the opportunities that he's gotten have been way more 228 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: as a running back than a fullback. You know, ric 229 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: o'dowdell and Darius Anderson have had moments, but there's gonna 230 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: be a million running backs available on waivers and done 231 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 1: practice squads after these rosters get cut, So I really 232 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: only have the two. Nick Um, I'm gonna keep Rico. 233 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna keep him on the team. I 234 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:24,599 Speaker 1: think he's done enough. And then he got then he 235 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: got Tony Pollard and of course Zeke. I don't. I 236 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: don't think you need a full back because I think 237 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 1: you're gonna have put those tight ends. I don't. I 238 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 1: definitely would just keep two, especially if i'm keeping another quarterback. 239 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: So if I'm keeping three quarterbacks, I'm keeping two running 240 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 1: backs and Zeke. You know, Zeke and Tony Poller. He's 241 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 1: done an amazing job at camp, So I don't think 242 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: there's a need for a third one. All right, So 243 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: let's move on to the tight end position. Cowboys have 244 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: three spots that you would assume they're gonna carry. You 245 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: would think Blake job Win, Blake Bell, and I would 246 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: think Dalton Schultz is your third guy. I know we 247 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: had to talk last weekend, and I think a couple 248 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 1: of you guys said you wouldn't necessarily completely rule out 249 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: the possibility of Cole Hiccottini making this team. My question 250 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: for you guys is, do you stick with three and 251 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: Hiccotini becomes your third or Schultz, or do you go 252 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: with four and take all four of them. Let's start 253 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: first with you, Nick, I think you can keep four 254 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: tight ends if you don't keep a fullback. Remember he 255 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: said they were interchangeable, and so I think Hiccottini has 256 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: done enough where you could maybe keep him. I don't 257 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: know about going along at running back and tight end, 258 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: but the other three guys are solid and they deserve 259 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: to make it. Amber I think I would just keep 260 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 1: I would like to have four, but I would just 261 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 1: probably keep three because honestly, the I like Blake Jarwin, 262 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: Blake Bell, I think he's gonna stay. And then out 263 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,839 Speaker 1: of Dalton Schultz and colehat Kutini, I mean they both 264 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 1: haven't done enough to where I'm like, oh, yes, let 265 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: me keep both of them. I would just take one 266 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: of those two and just keep three and see what 267 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: who else is available from other teams. Helman, I honestly, 268 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: I think they're either gonna keep four tight ends or 269 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: they're gonna add a running back fullback when this stuff 270 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: gets cut. And that's that's the tough part is, you know, 271 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: it's it's almost a guarantee that there will be one 272 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: or two guys on this roster that aren't here. Now, 273 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: you think about how experienced this coaching staff is. You know, 274 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: they've been all you know, so many of these coaches 275 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: have spent so much time in the league. There's bound 276 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: to be players they like that are available, you know, 277 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: on Saturday and Sunday. But what we're looking at right now, 278 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: if they don't keep three running backs, I wouldn't be 279 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: surprised if they keep a fourth fullback. I think Blake 280 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: Bell and Dalton Schultz can both be in h back 281 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: fullback type of guy. And then you add in Cole 282 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: Hiccottini as depth. I don't know that he's gonna make it, 283 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: but I at least want to. Min shouldn't Sean mckun 284 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: as well, the Michigan rookie. He's had moments, for sure, 285 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: and he's a big body guy who can do some 286 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 1: of that blocking stuff. So, like I said, I don't 287 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: know if he makes the team, but I think we 288 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: should at least mention him all right some more onto 289 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: the wide receiver position, We've got three guys we absolutely 290 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: know we're gonna make this team, Amari Cooper, Michael Gallop 291 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: and Ceedee Lamb. I think most of us agree that 292 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: Noah Brown and Cedric Wilson are gonna be the fourth 293 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: and fifth wide receivers on this team. The question for 294 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: you guys is do the Cowboys keep us sixth and 295 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: if so, who do they keep? Out of Intel Bryant, 296 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: John Vay Johnson, Devid Smith. Let's start first with you, Nick. 297 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: I don't think they go with any I don't I 298 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: won't go with six receivers at all. I'd stick with 299 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: five because I think when you when you're so top 300 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: heavy with the top three that you have, you really 301 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: don't need more than that. You got to back up in. 302 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson has been really good. You've got a special 303 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: teams guy, and Noah Brown, who's also been pretty good 304 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: lately as a receiver. I can't see where a sixth 305 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: guy really is needed at this point, all right, Amber, 306 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: I'm going back and forth. I think that they should 307 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: be okay with the fifth guy. Now. I wonder how 308 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: concerned they are about Amari Cooper and his whole whatever 309 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: the injury is, even though they say it's just precautionary 310 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: at this point, but I wonder if that plays a 311 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: role into maybe then wanted to keep a sixth guy. 312 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: And if they were to keep a six guy, my 313 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: guy would be Devin Smith to add there. All right, 314 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: Dave Age took the words right out of my mouth. 315 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: I would love to keep Devin Smith on this team. 316 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: I think if something happens to one of the big three, 317 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: he's the most logical guy that can step in and 318 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: play out on the boundary. But he also has probably 319 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: the least special team's value. And that's that's the thing is, 320 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: can you afford to just have Devin Smith be a 321 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: game day and active until somebody gets hurt? I don't know, 322 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: um vent tel Brian his injury is it looked pretty 323 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: bad they said it wasn't. I want to keep an 324 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 1: eye on that. I mean, if he's healthy enough that 325 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: he's not going to miss a ton of time, his 326 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,959 Speaker 1: special team's ability is intriguing. He's also you know, he's 327 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: a bigger bodied guy who can probably do some stuff 328 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: on the outside. Um, I'm not convinced you need six, 329 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: but if they kept six, I would hope it would 330 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: be Devin Smith or vent Tel Bryant. Yeah. I like 331 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: Devin Smith. You gotta remember about vent Tel Brian he 332 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: could be facing a suspension, so true, it's a good point. 333 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: Sure what the deal is with him? Yeah, I think 334 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: one of the interesting things here is I like Devin 335 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: Smith a lot, and I think he could add something 336 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: to this team from a depth perspective. But the one 337 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 1: thing that I keep remembering that that McCarthy said multiple 338 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: times is he needs guys on the team that can 339 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: do multiple things. And so I have a hard time 340 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: thinking that they're going to have a receiver who's gonna 341 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,120 Speaker 1: be sixth on their depth chart, presumably that is not 342 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: going to be able to play special teams for them. 343 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 1: I just don't see how that would fit based upon again, 344 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: what McCarthy has told us. Now, we'll find out through 345 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: all of this is our first year with this coach. 346 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,479 Speaker 1: We'll find out how much of this is stuff that 347 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: he really believes or stuff that he just says right, 348 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:25,919 Speaker 1: But based upon what he said so far, I have 349 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 1: a hard time thinking that Devin gets a shot at 350 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 1: making this team under those kind of scenarios, unless again, 351 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 1: they see an opportunity for him to play more on 352 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 1: special teams than maybe what we see. We're gonna go 353 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: and take our first break and we come back. We're 354 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: gonna talk about the offensive line. There are lots of 355 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: conversations to have around that, and then we'll get into 356 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: the defense. We'll do that when we come right back. 357 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: This is Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio.

We're talking Cowboys football with you, guys. 392 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: We're going through the roster. We're trying to get it 393 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: down to fifty three players. Guys have already talked about 394 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: the skill positions on the offensive side of the ball. 395 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 1: We're now going to move to the offensive line. Let's 396 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: talk about the offensive tackle position. First. We know for 397 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 1: sure that Tyrn Smith Lyle Collins will definitely make this team. 398 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: I want to ask you guys this question about cam Irving. Obviously, 399 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: he was brought in here to be the swing tackle, 400 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: so conventional wisdom would would say that he's going to 401 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: make this team. My question for you is have you 402 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: seen enough from him that makes you feel comfortable with 403 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: him as the swing tackle again recognizing the fact that 404 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: there have been injury issues over the last several years 405 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: for your tackles, or do you feel comfortable with him 406 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,159 Speaker 1: in that role or do you think maybe this is 407 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: a position where the Cowboys will possibly be looking out 408 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: to see what other teams might be doing as far 409 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 1: as guys that get cut, veterans that may get cut, 410 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: and see if maybe they can upgrade the position. Let's 411 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: start first with you, Dave. I'm not trying to convince 412 00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 1: anybody that cam Irving is amazing. He's been fine. He 413 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: doesn't look as good as Tyron and LC. But my 414 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: thing is, first of all, I'm convinced they need to 415 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: keep him, not because of anything he's done, but because 416 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: of how much we've seen the starting tackles, which is 417 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: not a lot. You know, Lyle and Tyrn both have 418 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: their injury issues. It is what it is, and I'm 419 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: dubious that there will be a better tackle available than 420 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: a guy like Cam Irving who has been a starter 421 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: in this league for multiple years. Guys like that don't 422 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: get put on the street very often, so I'm all 423 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: in favor of keeping him. Like I said, I don't 424 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: think he's you know, if he has to start multiple games, 425 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: that's probably not great, but it's better than nothing. And 426 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm keeping Brandon Knight too, so I would like to 427 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: have four tackles on this roster for sure. Amber I 428 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: think that this is a situation where they definitely look 429 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: into bringing someone else. I feel like, obviously we know 430 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 1: how Tyrant and Lyle Collins look like when they're healthy 431 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 1: and in delight, but we also got a preview of 432 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 1: what this offensive line could look like without those two guys. 433 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 1: We saw a lot of combination, different mixes of people 434 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: moving around the line and seeing what that looked like, 435 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: and honestly, that didn't make me feel super super excited 436 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: or comfortable with going into a real regular season game 437 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: with those guys. So I think that they need to 438 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: are They probably will look into someone else. I don't 439 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 1: know who all is out there and if they are 440 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: any better than what they already got, but as of 441 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 1: right now, I think that they just need help at 442 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: the position. Nick Well, I think that it comes down 443 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 1: to how ready Camering is to play. Also, I mean, 444 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: not only has he has he been out, but we 445 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: really weren't told why he missed so much time, and 446 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 1: so is he a guy that could step right in 447 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: in play? Is he ready to do that? He hasn't 448 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: had much of a training camp and certainly hasn't played 449 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: any games. So yeah, I'd be looking at somebody else 450 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: if they were available just I mean just to upgrade 451 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 1: number one, but also you might need a guy that's 452 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: more ready to play. Based upon what Amber and Nick said, 453 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: how do you guys feel about the idea of having 454 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: a fourth tackle? I think Dave's already said he's in 455 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: on that. How do you guys feel about a fourth 456 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: and who would that person be? I love Brandon Knight 457 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: as the fourth tackle. I don't know if if he's 458 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: ready to be the third, but I like him as 459 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 1: the fourth. And if you get a guy that's better 460 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: than Cam Irving, then maybe you cut cam Irving. But 461 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: I'm keeping Brandon Knight as a developmental player who is 462 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: show some toughness. He's got versatility, position flex maybe to 463 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: play some guard if needed. I like Brandon Knight as 464 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: a fourth I'm keeping him. I'm okay with that. You 465 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: know what, it makes me wonder how difficult would it 466 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: be for the scouts to be able to look at 467 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: other guys as well that are out there in the league. 468 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: I mean, do you feel more comfortable keeping what you 469 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: already have and you know what you have, or do 470 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 1: you take a risk into bringing someone else that maybe 471 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 1: is I mean, when you talk about those kind of 472 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: back cups like that, you don't really you haven't really 473 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: seen much from people out there, so it's not like 474 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: a well known guy. So I don't know, what do 475 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: you guys think you do you take a chance and 476 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: risk it into bringing someone else, or do you stay 477 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,719 Speaker 1: with well, you know, that's kind of my point. I mean, 478 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 1: you're absolutely right. First of all, you know, this year, 479 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: more than any year, you just don't really have an 480 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: idea of what other guys are doing. And like I said, 481 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: I mean, I just I don't think they are going 482 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 1: to be as many, very many guys available that have 483 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 1: as much experience as cam Irving does. That doesn't make 484 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: him a cure all, but it does probably make him 485 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,479 Speaker 1: the best available option. I would be pretty surprised if 486 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 1: there is a strikingly better tackle available this weekend. That 487 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: goes back to a point about the quarterback too, because 488 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: it's like, why do you keep being deduci I mean, 489 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: somebody gonna pick him up and actually put him on 490 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: their their fifty three man roster, like I don't know, 491 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 1: I mean, because they haven't seen him at all. So 492 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 1: I think you can get younger players through a little 493 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 1: bit more. That being said to answer her question, it's 494 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: gonna be really challenging to say, are I'm gonna take 495 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 1: this young guy that I just liked coming out of 496 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: college and putting him on my team. It's gonna have 497 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: to be a veteran player that you would say I've 498 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: seen him before, I had him before at another place. 499 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: So there's not a lot of rookies I think that 500 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: are going to be claimed like that. Yeah, it sounds 501 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: like what you guys are saying is veterans are premium 502 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: this year because of the limited amount of time they've 503 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,120 Speaker 1: had to prepare in the offseason, which means there won't 504 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: probably be any good veterans on the street once these 505 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: cuts are made. All right, let's move on. Let's talk 506 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: about the guard position. We know Zach Martin, Connor Williams, 507 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,959 Speaker 1: Connor McGovern make this team. I think we're all good here, right, 508 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 1: they're good. There? Three is all they need? You guys 509 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: good on that number? Um, well, I think, and I 510 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: assume you're gonna know Joe Looney and Tyler Battis. Adam 511 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: Redman does a little bit of everything. If they want 512 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 1: to go heavy, he could play, you know, he can 513 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: play all three interior positions. Like I said, if they 514 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: want an extra body, maybe you consider him. But yeah, 515 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: I think I think you're probably right. Yeah, that's interesting. 516 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: We're going talk about the center position. We know Joe 517 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 1: Looney is going to make the team obviously. I think 518 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: Tyler Briottish is another that we expect to make the team. 519 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: My question really is do you think they keep Adam 520 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 1: Redman because he does have that position flex for you 521 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: and he could play he could play both both center 522 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: and guard. What do you think, Amber? I think so, 523 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,159 Speaker 1: And especially when going back to what you said of 524 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: all Mike McCarthy earlier, something that he keeps talking about 525 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 1: over and over when he comes to roster spots is 526 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 1: that flexibility. They want to have guys that have the 527 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 1: flexibility to be interchangeable in different positions when need it. 528 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: So when you got a guy like that that has 529 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: some kind of experience and you know what he can 530 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: do and help you're in, I think you can definitely 531 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 1: keep a guy like that just for emergency. Nick, you know, 532 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 1: I'm actually going back to the guard position just now, 533 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: because let's not overlook the fact that Connor McGovern hasn't 534 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 1: played a football game in over two years since he 535 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,399 Speaker 1: played at Penn State, So to have him as your 536 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: backup guard on game day and if something were to happen. Oh, 537 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: by the way, you just got to face Aaron Donald. 538 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: I mean I'm a little bit concerned by that, just 539 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: because he hasn't played, and so I wonder if something 540 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 1: were to happen, is it better to put be honest 541 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: at center and lunient guard at this point, I don't know. 542 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if McGovern's ready. So that makes me 543 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: kind of hesitant a little bit about saying we're good 544 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: with the three guards. Wait, but are you saying that 545 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: Connor mcgovernor doesn't make this team? No, no, no, but 546 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: he is he ready to back up both guard spots 547 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: in if needed. He hasn't played since a bowl game 548 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: at Penn State, and so I just and that was 549 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: two years ago. So I don't know. It goes back 550 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: to to the same point that you're making. I mean, 551 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: it's Tyler Biat is ready to be a center, you know, 552 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 1: if you move Joe Lunia, I mean, uh yeah, without either. 553 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: I don't feel comfortable either, I don't. I mean, that's 554 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: not about being comfortable, and this is this twenty twenty. 555 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: There's nothing comfortable about this year at all. So I'm 556 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: just saying he's not as far removed from playing football 557 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: as McGovern. I just wonder what your best options. You're 558 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: trying to get five five best players out on the field, 559 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: and I don't know if McGovern would be that if 560 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 1: there would be an injury. I don't know. I think 561 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: y'all are kind of out of the nature of the 562 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: NFL in twenty twenty. I mean, that's that's the NFL. 563 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: I mean, how many positions are you going to lose 564 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: a guy and feel comfortable about who's replacing him. I mean, 565 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: you're very lucky, you know. I think you could probably 566 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: say that about running back and to some degree, receiver, 567 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: depending on how many injuries you're dealing with. But when 568 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 1: you when guys get hurt, you're probably not going to 569 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: feel great about your options. But we're going to say, 570 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: of all the players on the team that are gonna 571 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: make the team, let's say you put fifty three fifty 572 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: five guys out there. Of the players you know nothing about, 573 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: don't you think Connor McGovern's right at the top of 574 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: that list, Or you're like, I really don't know anything 575 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: about this guy. I think you can make the same argument, 576 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 1: as Amber was saying with Tyler Beiodis, I don't think 577 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: you really know a lot about him. He's a rookie, 578 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: he's just coming in. He hasn't had an offseason. I 579 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 1: think you say that about him. I think you say 580 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: that about Gallimore. I think you can say that about 581 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: if you think Bradley and like, go down the list 582 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: of all the rookies except for the top two, I 583 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: think you could probably make the same argument about any 584 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: one of those guys because you just haven't seen enough 585 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 1: to know whether they're in. But they don't have as 586 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: much rust as this guy. That's what I'm saying. He 587 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: hasn't played in two years, so yeah, he might be 588 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: he might be better, But I'm just saying it's been 589 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: a long time since he's done anything, and I don't know. 590 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: I don't know what to expect from him. Yep. I 591 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: think the strategy they're going to have is cross their 592 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: fingers and pray that neither one of their guards goes 593 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,080 Speaker 1: down when they got to face Aaron Donald, because it 594 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,239 Speaker 1: will be a rough day for whoever is out there 595 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: by the way, it'll be a rough day for It'll 596 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: be a rough day for either one of the starters 597 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: to Aaron Donald's just a handful, you know. So, I mean, 598 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: you just pray that those guys don't go down, and 599 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 1: if they do, then I think Conor mc govern's gonna 600 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: get thrown in and they're just gonna see what he 601 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 1: can do. That's putting it nice. Aaron Donald's a handfuls 602 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: like saying we've had some missions this year. All right, 603 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: let's move on. Let's talk about the defensive side of 604 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: the ball. We're gonna flip over to start with a 605 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,239 Speaker 1: defensive line. My assumption is they're going to carry at 606 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: least ten defensive linemen. I'm gonna throw you eight names 607 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: that I think are for sure going to make this team. 608 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: You guys, tell them if you agree with that, and 609 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: then tell me, if it's two more, who the two 610 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: that you'll take. So I think it's DeMarcus Lawrence, Alden Smith, 611 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: Everson Griffin, Tyron Crawford, Don Terry Poe, Tristan Hill, Antoine Woods, 612 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: Neville Gallimar. That leads two more spots, and you'll have 613 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: to choose between Bradley and I, Joe Jackson, Rondelle Carter, 614 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: Ladarius Hamilton, and Dorance Armstrong. Do you guys agree with 615 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 1: the eight And if so, do you think if they're 616 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: gonna get to two, how many more or who those 617 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: two names that you take to get you to ten. 618 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: Let's start with you, Dave. I mean, I don't disagree 619 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: with your list, but I I'm I think Bradley and 620 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: I's a lock. Honestly, you know, he's a he's a 621 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: rookie draft pick. Teams don't like to cut draft picks. 622 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: He's also kicked some ass, I mean, and don't get 623 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: me wrong, I don't you know. I don't think he's 624 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: gonna get a ton of playing time as a rookie, 625 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: but he's done more than enough to deserve a roster spot. 626 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: And he's done more than enough, which you know obviously 627 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: other teams haven't seen this. But I would be afraid 628 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: of trying to get him through waivers, that's for sure. 629 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: So I consider him a lock. And then for me, 630 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: you know when you told me we were doing this, 631 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: I spent some time last night. I think it's probably 632 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: between Doran's Armstrong and Joe Jackson. If they keep ten, 633 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: that's my guests. So if they keep a tenth guy, 634 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: I think it would be one of those two and 635 00:32:53,160 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: I would probably lean toward Doran's nick. I like the eight. 636 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I think eight is good, And yeah, I 637 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: would say a nine makes it with the ninth guy, 638 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: and I think I'm done there because you know, it 639 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: looks like they're gonna play a lot of three four 640 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: So when you think about three down linemen, I mean, 641 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: you know, do you need more than I understand some 642 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: of those guys are playing linebacker and pass rush and 643 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: all that, but I just don't see the need to 644 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: have that many guys. Armstrong or Jackson. It would be 645 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: it'd be a flip. It would be the guy that 646 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 1: could be a little bit more versatile as a stand 647 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: up player. But I could see Armstrong, I guess making it. 648 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: But you know, I'm and wait, is there anybody getting 649 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: suspended to start the year? I mean it seems like this, 650 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: well this would be the first year in like seven 651 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: years we don't have a defensive end starting the year suspension, right, 652 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: I think we're going to break unless unless they move 653 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: back around on Crawford, I think we're good. There's been 654 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 1: a bad boy in Florida. If Jerry, if Jared would 655 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 1: stop talking about that, you know how to let it lie, right, 656 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: you know. That's a good point of though. Also about Crawford, 657 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,280 Speaker 1: and that's what makes him so good with the position 658 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 1: flex is that's like having two guys at one. I 659 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 1: don't think you need to have ten when you have 660 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: a guy like Crawford who could play multiple spots. Griffin's 661 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 1: playing multiple spots. So give me, give me nine with 662 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: a nine and I think we're good. And yeah, you know, 663 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,280 Speaker 1: it's you have to cut ties. I guess with Jackson 664 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: and Armstrong a couple of picks, but they've had some 665 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:35,399 Speaker 1: time to do something and they really haven't. Amber Um. 666 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 1: I agree with everything they just said, both Dave and Nick. 667 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: I think that out of those two, it just depends 668 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: what they decide to do on other positions. But if 669 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 1: they were to keep that extra guy, I think out 670 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: of those two would just be Dorian's Armstrong. I don't 671 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: think there is a full need for it, but it 672 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 1: just I guess he's one of those that what do 673 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: they do at other positions? All right, let's flip over 674 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: to the linebacker position. Right now, the Cowboys have what 675 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: I would think are gonna be six spots. There are 676 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 1: seven linebackers on the roster currently, question is are they 677 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: going to keep a seventh? Are they gonna stick with six? 678 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: We know Jalen Smith, Layton Vanderess, Shaun Lee are definitely 679 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: on this team. Question becomes what happens with the other 680 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: three spots? Yes, Dave, Sorry, I you know, one of 681 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 1: the fun things about doing the show on our phones 682 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,320 Speaker 1: is that I can't look at it, which apparently they 683 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: have released Adam Redmond while we've been on the show, 684 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 1: So okay, never made it easy. Yeah, yeah, so I 685 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,320 Speaker 1: guess they don't feel that way, which, yeah, so I 686 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 1: would imagine maybe you go nine, No Lineman, best of 687 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,439 Speaker 1: luck to Adam Redmond. I think Clayton Thorson was also 688 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 1: released today, So yeah, sorry that we were on the 689 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: show while that happened. Everybody anyway, all right, So you know, 690 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,399 Speaker 1: so going back to know what's happening, you're real quick. 691 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,399 Speaker 1: You know what's happening is they out a practice here 692 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 1: for three three more days for the cutdown day. They 693 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: know what they want to do. And this is a 694 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: big difference between what you've seen other coaching staffs. The 695 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 1: previous staff is they wouldn't necessarily do this. This team 696 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: is like, all right, we know we're not going to 697 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: have him, don't let him get hurt and do an 698 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 1: injury settlement and stuff like that. Let's go ahead and 699 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 1: start cutting down the roster since we already know what 700 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: we want to do. It's kind of I don't know 701 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 1: what y'all think about that, but at least that's kind 702 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 1: of refreshing to me. They go ahead and start doing that. 703 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: It's amazing they you know, under Jason Garrett, they used 704 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 1: to wait until like Saturday night, and yeah, I mean, 705 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 1: if you know what you want to do, get it 706 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: out of the way. And also maybe give a guy 707 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: like Adam Redman an opportunity to talk to some teams 708 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 1: before you know, everything gets crazy. That's exactly right. The 709 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: sooner he's out there, the sooner teams can evaluate him 710 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,839 Speaker 1: and determine whether he's better than what they have. Gives 711 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:50,800 Speaker 1: him an opportunity maybe to get on another team. This 712 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: is great for players. I think, Yeah, all right, so 713 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 1: let's get back to linebackers. I think Jalen Smith, Layton Vanderess, 714 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: Sean Lee locks to make the team. I think there 715 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,399 Speaker 1: are three one spots up for grab, Joe Thomas, Justin March, 716 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,240 Speaker 1: Luke Gifford and Francis Bernard, Do you keep six or seven? 717 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 1: And who are the guys that you keep out of 718 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: those final guys? Let's start first with you Amber Um. 719 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: Let's see, man, I think hmm, okay, I think I'm 720 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,359 Speaker 1: ready to say bye to Louk Giffer. That was my guy. 721 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: But honestly, this this time has been so crucial for 722 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 1: the for this year, you just cannot miss any practice time. 723 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 1: And I think that Francis Bernard, and I know Nick 724 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 1: has been talking about him, but he's definitely a guy 725 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 1: that just came in and started making his name known 726 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 1: out there on the field. I think he took that spot. 727 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: I would keep, all right, you said, Layton, Jalen, Shaun Lee. 728 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 1: I would say, Joe Thomas, Francis Bernard. And do you 729 00:37:54,440 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: really need yes, I guess justin March, I mean you 730 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: don't really, it's not I guess you basically keep the 731 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: whole group except for one guy pretty much. Here here's 732 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:12,240 Speaker 1: the thing. Here's the thing about it. The one position 733 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: that linebackers kind of mirror from the offensive side of 734 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: the ball is a fullback and or tied end maybe. 735 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 1: And the fact that you don't have that many physical 736 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: players at full you don't have a fullback. Really that 737 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: is gonna make it you're you're you're tight ends. Dalton 738 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: Schultz is not really a thumper, you know, type of 739 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: blocker at all. Uh So you need maybe you needed 740 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 1: a little bit more linebackers to make up for that 741 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,240 Speaker 1: on the special team's part, because you're not really getting 742 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,800 Speaker 1: that on the offensive side of the ball. So I 743 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 1: think to answer your question about March, yeah, I think 744 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 1: you do need to keep justin March. I think you 745 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 1: do need to keep u is it Francis Bernard? Is 746 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:54,879 Speaker 1: that his name, Bernard Francis, I don't know. I'll tell 747 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: you this. I almost hit him. I almost hit him 748 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: with my truck in the parking lot two days ago. 749 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 1: We wouldn't even truck, but I'm saying it was kind 750 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: of a mess down there and he was walking by. 751 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 1: I know it was him because it was the hair, 752 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: and almost hit him. But you know, so we almost 753 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 1: weren't even talking about this, but that didn't happen. They 754 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: right now, is they've right now is wrapping up exactly 755 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 1: what all of us are thinking, just like, no, please 756 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: don't hit him, Please don't hit please don't hold Francis Bernard. 757 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: I told Dave, No, you did. I really I think 758 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: five of there's five locks. In my opinion, I think 759 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: Joe Thomas makes this team for you know, if you 760 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: have a capable starter as a fourth linebacker, that's wonderful depth. 761 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: Francis Bernard hasn't done more than enough to make the team. 762 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: I've got justin March making it. Maybe they like Gifford more, 763 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: It's hard to imagine that they do, since Gifford has 764 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 1: been sidelined. I would guess six, and I leaned toward March. Yeah. 765 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 1: I think it's a general consensus among you guys is 766 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: probably gonna be six. The only reason I would caution 767 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:00,400 Speaker 1: for seventh is I do wonder how much that factors 768 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 1: into special teams when you look at the fact that, 769 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 1: as we talked about earlier, if a fullback doesn't make 770 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: this team, and let's assume they only keep three tight ends, 771 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 1: maybe they go with the fourth, but let's assume maybe 772 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 1: they do three. I think they're gonna need some more 773 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: big bodies that are athletic that they can throw out 774 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: on special teams. And I do think this team is 775 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 1: going to be very, very cautious and thoughtful about what 776 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 1: they do as far as making their final fifty three 777 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 1: man roster, and how it affects special teams. I know 778 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 1: not all coaching staffs do that, but every indication is 779 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 1: that they will do that. It makes me wonder how 780 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,320 Speaker 1: those how those will be tied together. If they decide 781 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 1: to only go three at tight end and no fullback, 782 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 1: do you go with the seventh linebacker to give you 783 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: a little better, a little bit of extra help on 784 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: special teams. I'll throw that back out to you, guys. 785 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: What do you think about that analysis? Well, I was 786 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 1: gonna say, you know we were talking. Oh sorry, Nick, 787 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: go ahead, you know what I want to say that. 788 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 1: I'm not implying anything. I'm not trying to start anything. 789 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,719 Speaker 1: But are we sure that Sean Lee is a lock? 790 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,839 Speaker 1: I mean, when you ask what's even Jones was asked 791 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,320 Speaker 1: about him, he said he could put a coach, You 792 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: could put a coaching, you know, cap on him in 793 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 1: a whistle right now. It was a kind of a 794 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 1: weird answer. He hasn't practiced much. I'm just saying I 795 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 1: don't know what's going on with him. I mean, I'm 796 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: not implying I don't know anything. He might They might 797 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 1: just be getting him ready to play the season getting 798 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 1: him healthy because he knows how to get his body ready. 799 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:23,319 Speaker 1: But it wouldn't be the biggest shock in the world 800 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,959 Speaker 1: if for some reason Sean Lee isn't on the roster 801 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 1: and maybe has a different role. Again, I know nothing 802 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,280 Speaker 1: all about what I've seen and what I heard recently 803 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,280 Speaker 1: on the radio. For what Stephen said, it just sounded 804 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: weird to me. I would be shocked, I'll say this, 805 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 1: I absolutely would be two. And based upon what you 806 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 1: guys were saying early in the show with regards to 807 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 1: the premium that you'll have on Veterans this year, I 808 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 1: think that is even more reason why I think he 809 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 1: makes this team. And quite frankly, I look at it 810 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 1: as it goes back to the first conversation we had 811 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 1: on this show. We were talking about injuries and talking 812 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,400 Speaker 1: about how it seems like, at least from from what 813 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,359 Speaker 1: Jerry's been saying or what he said in this most 814 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 1: recent interview about Amari, that this team is looking at 815 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:09,240 Speaker 1: the analytics and trying to figure out how they best 816 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: integrate guys in, how they best pull them back, all 817 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 1: the things that they need to do from the analytics 818 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: that helped them be more predictive about how injuries could 819 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 1: happen and try to guard guys from that. I think 820 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: that's why they haven't seen as much of Sean Lee personally. Again, 821 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 1: that's not based upon anything that I've heard. It's just 822 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,720 Speaker 1: based upon kind of you put all these things together 823 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 1: and start reading the tea leaves. I think it's much 824 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,400 Speaker 1: more about the fact they're trying to keep him from 825 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 1: injury then he's injured, or that he's gonna, you will 826 00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 1: be a problem for him this season. You can base 827 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,440 Speaker 1: it on things that you've heard. I don't remember when 828 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: Stephen did another interview. Obviously, Stephen and Jerry Jones talk 829 00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: like five times a week. Stephen said, you know, very 830 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: early on in camp, you know, he said, Mike McCarthy 831 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,000 Speaker 1: had this funny line about, like, you know, we're not 832 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 1: worried about August eighteenth, we're worried about September thirteenth. And 833 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 1: that's exactly that's the vibe that I give for Sean Lee. Absolutely. 834 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy you don't need to worry about 835 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 1: him getting practice reps, especially since you're not looking at 836 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 1: him to start, you know, you're not asking him to 837 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 1: play sixty five snaps a game, So I think the 838 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 1: plan with Sean is just to have him ready for 839 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: the season and not really worry about a whole lot else. Yeah, 840 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,359 Speaker 1: I will say this, if you get to week five 841 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: or six of this season and you sustain an injury 842 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,840 Speaker 1: to one of your two top linebackers, of all the 843 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: guys that are left, I would love more than any 844 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:27,359 Speaker 1: of the others to throw Sean Lee in there as 845 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 1: my starter at that point. So I think for that 846 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 1: reason alone, he's the guy that makes this team. All Right, 847 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 1: we're gon take our final break. When we come back, 848 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: Let's jump into the defensive backs.

We're gonna wrap this thing 889 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: up talking about the insive backs for the Dallas Cowboys, 890 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,040 Speaker 1: who we think will make the team. I think there 891 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 1: will be ten. That's the magic number. The guys I 892 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 1: think that are locks are Cheetah, bay A Woozia, Jordan Lewis, 893 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:16,320 Speaker 1: Anthony Brown, Trevon Diggs, Darryl Worley, Darian Thompson, Xavier Woods, Haha, 894 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 1: Clinton Dix. That gives us eight. We got two more spots. 895 00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,440 Speaker 1: Who do you think makes the final or do you 896 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 1: think that numbers should be higher or Lord, we've got 897 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:29,760 Speaker 1: c J. Goodwin, Donovan Wilson, Reggie Robinson, Chris Westry, Xavion Smith, 898 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 1: Deontay Burton, and Luther Kirk. Let's start first with you, Dave. 899 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,799 Speaker 1: What do you do with the defensive backpotition? I don't 900 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 1: think you can rule out the possibility that they keep eleven. 901 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: And I know that's a lot, but it speaks to 902 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 1: how few proven things they have back there, and how 903 00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 1: many you know, guys they have competings. You know, I 904 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:52,800 Speaker 1: wrote this down. I think there's five locks at cornerback 905 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 1: Cheeto Brown, Diggs, Jordan and Warley. And then at safety, 906 00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:02,400 Speaker 1: I've got Xavier Thompson, Hah, Reggie Robinson and Donovan Wilson. 907 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,399 Speaker 1: And then you can't forget you know. I'm not looking 908 00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: to him to play cornerback, but we brave every year 909 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 1: about CJ. Goodwin's abilities as a special teamer. So that's 910 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:17,719 Speaker 1: a name that I think is worth considering. That's probably it, 911 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,040 Speaker 1: though I know, you know, people love Chris Westley. I'm 912 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: not sure I see that, but if they really love 913 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 1: what Goodwin brings to their special teams, maybe they keep eleven. Okay, Amber, 914 00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:36,399 Speaker 1: I agree with Dave Honestly, I wasn't thinking about them 915 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:40,520 Speaker 1: keeping eleven guys, but his recently makes perfect sense. So 916 00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 1: I'm all in with Dad. There's so many guys that 917 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,399 Speaker 1: are just like kind of right there with each other, 918 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:50,879 Speaker 1: and you know, I was really concerned about Jordan Lewis 919 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: and the fact that he was missing so much time 920 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,919 Speaker 1: on my old man. I hope that none of these 921 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:59,839 Speaker 1: guys come and kind of pass his how do you say? 922 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 1: Get better and then you you're leaning more towards a 923 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:04,959 Speaker 1: different guy and kind of forget about Jordian Lewis because 924 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:08,240 Speaker 1: I've always loved what Jordan Lewis can do, but looking 925 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 1: at it and being at the end of Camp, I 926 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 1: don't think there was any guy that actually was able 927 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 1: to do that, and Jordan Lewis has the experience and 928 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 1: out of that, I think you guys mentioned all the 929 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 1: name I got right here, Darian Thompson, Cheeta, Xavier Jordan's 930 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:31,960 Speaker 1: ha ha, Darley Worley, who to me has been pretty impressive. Honestly, 931 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:34,719 Speaker 1: I wasn't expecting him to be so to do the 932 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:40,240 Speaker 1: kind of job that he's done. Anthony Brown, Digs, Donovan Wilson, 933 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:44,839 Speaker 1: and then Reggie Robinson, so I'm not ten guys there. 934 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 1: You take, you take Wilson and Robinson, those are your 935 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:52,919 Speaker 1: final two if they only stick with ten. Yeah, okay, CJ. 936 00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 1: Goodwin would be out for you, correct, CJ. Goodwin. I 937 00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:58,319 Speaker 1: guess if they do keep ten guys like Dave said, 938 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't mind that at all. But out of 939 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,880 Speaker 1: those guys, like after those, there's no one else that 940 00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:08,480 Speaker 1: honestly did enough for me. I want to throw this 941 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 1: out there. Oh yeah, lett, Nick, go, but I want 942 00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 1: to throw something out there. Okay, Nick? Well, first of all, 943 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 1: as I say this, Dave, can we confirm does Devin 944 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:22,359 Speaker 1: Smith also been released as well? Smith has also been there? Yeah? Yeah, 945 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 1: they really timed this perfectly for us. Yeah, Devin Smith 946 00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:28,919 Speaker 1: is gone, so not a huge surprise. Like I said, 947 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: I would have liked to keep him, but oh well, Um. 948 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 1: The thing is is that we get to this point 949 00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: of doing the roster, it's like, what's the number? Like, 950 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 1: I mean, how many are you? Are you keeping track? Derek? 951 00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:41,600 Speaker 1: I mean, what what what are we at with keeping tracking? 952 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 1: So we're gonna go back and do that. Tell me 953 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:45,879 Speaker 1: what you think about this these guys, and then we'll 954 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:48,880 Speaker 1: go back and do that Um, I just eleven seems 955 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:50,799 Speaker 1: too many for me, and Goodwin would be a lot 956 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 1: higher on my list to make sure that I get 957 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: in here again. I'm not trying to cut a bunch 958 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 1: of veterans. I'm just not trying to lock them. I mean, 959 00:49:57,840 --> 00:49:59,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if ha Ha is he is he 960 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:02,640 Speaker 1: a lock? I don't know that. I mean he hasn't 961 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 1: been playing now with Xavier Woods banged up, probably to 962 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:10,520 Speaker 1: stay on the roster here. But I mean he was 963 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 1: brought in here to compete, I mean, to get a 964 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 1: starting job, and he hasn't necessarily done that. So do 965 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,319 Speaker 1: you need him? Donald Wilson and Renci Robinson. Robinson hasn't 966 00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:22,480 Speaker 1: done much of anything. You're just hoping that he will 967 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 1: at some point. But if Maurice Kennedy opting out like that, 968 00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,279 Speaker 1: I think CJ. Goodwin, I think he is close to 969 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 1: a lot to make the team, honestly, So are you 970 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:34,160 Speaker 1: saying that you don't you wouldn't necessarily think that there's 971 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 1: going to beat ten. You think because we had eight 972 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,239 Speaker 1: that we thought were locks, you're saying you don't even 973 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,400 Speaker 1: think Ha has as much of a lock. But CJ 974 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 1: would replace him as a lock. So you're saying that, 975 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:46,719 Speaker 1: you're saying at this point nine, maybe go a number end. 976 00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,120 Speaker 1: I'd go with I'd go with ten. If I could 977 00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 1: fit ten in, I would go with ten. So who's 978 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 1: your tenth If you're gonna keep and you're gonna have CJ. 979 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 1: Goodwin out of Donovan Wilson, Reggie Robinson, Chris Westry, who 980 00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 1: is your your last guy? I go with Wilson and 981 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:07,360 Speaker 1: I'm cut him a fourth round pick. I'd be a 982 00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 1: big move. I haven't. I mean, I haven't seen that 983 00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:14,440 Speaker 1: since maybe two thousand and six. Skyler Green. Yeah, I 984 00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:17,840 Speaker 1: can't remember that many fourth round picks being cut, But 985 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. He probably wouldn't pass Raver in my 986 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:27,320 Speaker 1: time here, I don't. That would signal. That would signal 987 00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:29,560 Speaker 1: a pretty big shift. I mean that would say something 988 00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 1: about Mike McCarthy to me, because in the time that 989 00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,880 Speaker 1: I've been here, and in the time that Will McClay 990 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 1: has been running the draft, they haven't I think a 991 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:41,080 Speaker 1: fifth rounder is the highest drafted guy that they've cut. Rookie. Yeah, 992 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 1: you know what you can't do that, you can't cut him. 993 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:47,560 Speaker 1: I mean, this is what he's had eighteen practices. I mean, 994 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 1: you should have that eighteen practices before you go to 995 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,400 Speaker 1: training camp. He hasn't had that. They drafted him in 996 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:56,920 Speaker 1: the fourth round of what they knew of him. I 997 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 1: don't think things have changed. So okay, I gotta you 998 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 1: gotta take him back. He's gotta be you gotta go 999 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 1: with eleven if I could fit eleven, or maybe you 1000 00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 1: don't have to keep that other safety. You don't have 1001 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:10,120 Speaker 1: to keep Donald Wilson or ha. Here's this is what 1002 00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 1: I wanted to bring up, And I mean, I think 1003 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:16,280 Speaker 1: the Xavier Woods injury probably helps haha, but I definitely 1004 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 1: don't think that that's a guarantee. But the other thing 1005 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 1: is this is maybe a spot where you could get 1006 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 1: away with trading a guy on Saturday. You know, I 1007 00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:28,400 Speaker 1: was the first one to say I wasn't convinced Trayvon 1008 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: Diggs could be a starter from the get I have 1009 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 1: completely changed my mind. He absolutely looks like he's capable 1010 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:38,399 Speaker 1: of starting from day one. So, I mean, I love 1011 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,839 Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis, but if somebody wanted him and you could 1012 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 1: get something for him, that's something to look at. And 1013 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 1: I think he's had a really good camp. But Darryl 1014 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 1: Worley is another one. His versatility would make me reluctant 1015 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:51,920 Speaker 1: to do that. But if somebody wanted to send me 1016 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,440 Speaker 1: a fullback or a sixth round pick or something like that, 1017 00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 1: I would consider it. Would you be willing to go 1018 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,520 Speaker 1: with Anthony Brown? Trade Anthony Brown if that were available 1019 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 1: to you. I just don't know Anthony Brown's I mean, 1020 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:11,719 Speaker 1: it's not the biggest contract in the world, but he's 1021 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:13,920 Speaker 1: on a three year, fifteen million dollar deal. So I 1022 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 1: need something, you know, I can trade Jordan Lewis First, 1023 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:19,839 Speaker 1: it's more about for you. It's more about the fact 1024 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 1: that Jordan's Jordan's in the last year of his deal. 1025 00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:23,800 Speaker 1: That's more that it takes you for you, right, And 1026 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, if if somebody wants to give 1027 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,280 Speaker 1: me a sixth round or seventh round pick for Jordan, 1028 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 1: I say, yeah, that's probably fair because he's only got 1029 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 1: one year left on his deal. I mean, if I'm 1030 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 1: trading Anthony Brown, I'd better be getting something better than that. 1031 00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:37,920 Speaker 1: And I don't know who's going to be willing to 1032 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 1: part with something better than that. Okay, so let's wrap 1033 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 1: this whole thing up the way it looks right now, 1034 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,920 Speaker 1: based upon the numbers that we've all agreed on, and 1035 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,399 Speaker 1: that's assuming that they're gonna be at at least ten 1036 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:52,760 Speaker 1: defensive backs. It gets us to a total of fifty 1037 00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:55,200 Speaker 1: guys that are currently that we think currently would be 1038 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,440 Speaker 1: on the roster. So you've got three spots and you 1039 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:01,920 Speaker 1: get to choose from these players. Right, you got the fullback, 1040 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:05,279 Speaker 1: You've got the two running backs Anderson and Dowdell. You 1041 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 1: have a sixth wide receiver in John Vay Johnson or 1042 00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:12,439 Speaker 1: Vintel Bryant. You've got an eleventh defensive lineman which would 1043 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:16,560 Speaker 1: be between Joe Jackson, Rondelle Carter, Ladarius Hamilton, or Dorance Armstrong. 1044 00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:19,720 Speaker 1: You have a seventh linebacker which would be Luke Gifford. 1045 00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:22,800 Speaker 1: And you have an eleventh defensive back which would be 1046 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:28,759 Speaker 1: between Donovan Wilson, Reggie Robinson Chris Westry. Where do you go? 1047 00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:31,320 Speaker 1: Who are those three extra players that you that you 1048 00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,920 Speaker 1: put on your team. Let's start first with you, Nick, 1049 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: and how many defensive backs do we have? At this point? 1050 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 1: I think we settled. We settled on ten, which meant 1051 00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:48,480 Speaker 1: that we were gonna make CJ. Goodwin, Donovan Wilson, and 1052 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 1: Reggie Robinson. Two of those three We're gonna make it 1053 00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:54,480 Speaker 1: so you could take the third of that group or 1054 00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 1: Chris Westry right to get you to eleven, you gotta 1055 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,680 Speaker 1: keep Reggie Robinson, now change from mine there, so I gotta, 1056 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:04,480 Speaker 1: I gotta ki it'd be good with Wilson. Reggie Robinson's 1057 00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 1: that's one of your spots. You got two more? Yeah, 1058 00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 1: I let them pick those. We gotta we gotta each 1059 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,800 Speaker 1: got three spots. I'll pick one. I'll take Reggie Robinson, 1060 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 1: all right, Dave between Luke Gifford and Joe Jackson Vintel Bryant. No, No, 1061 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna cheat because if that's the case, like it'll 1062 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:26,680 Speaker 1: there will be a guy or two here that wasn't 1063 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 1: at camp. That's the way it always goes. Um whether 1064 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:35,600 Speaker 1: that's that's gonna be ye, I'm gonna guess. I'm gonna 1065 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:38,840 Speaker 1: guess it'll be on offense. I mean they've I mean, 1066 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 1: defense is crowded anyway, So I'm gonna guess, Uh, one 1067 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 1: way or another, they're gonna add a extra running back 1068 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 1: slash fullback or a fourth tight end who can do 1069 00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:55,239 Speaker 1: that type of stuff. Um, Yeah, that's my guess, is 1070 00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:59,240 Speaker 1: somebody on offense that can contribute to the blocking aspect 1071 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:06,320 Speaker 1: of everything all right, Amber, So what where are we 1072 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,759 Speaker 1: at now? Basically, I need you to give me one 1073 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 1: player out of all of those that hasn't been selected 1074 00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:12,960 Speaker 1: that you think will make this team. So you had 1075 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:15,480 Speaker 1: the fallback, You had the two running backs Anderson Dowdle. 1076 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:19,480 Speaker 1: You had the two receivers John Vay Johnson and Vintel Bryant. 1077 00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,600 Speaker 1: You had some of the defensive lineman Joe Jackson, Dorance Armstrong, 1078 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:27,080 Speaker 1: you had Luke Gifford Um and you had Chris Westry. 1079 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:31,160 Speaker 1: Those are guys you're choosing from. Well now, with hearing 1080 00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:33,719 Speaker 1: that Demon Smith was cut, I mean, do you now 1081 00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:38,719 Speaker 1: decide to keep jump bad Johnson? That would have been 1082 00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:41,719 Speaker 1: my next guy out of the group. I know, Um, 1083 00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:45,080 Speaker 1: I've seen some things from benel Brian, but I wasn't 1084 00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:48,240 Speaker 1: too crazy honestly about him. And now with the injury, 1085 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:50,359 Speaker 1: I don't want to deal with anyone that's starting off 1086 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 1: the season with injury. Like I'm sorry, but stop it, 1087 00:56:56,560 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 1: stop it. Don't even say a poor guy. A poor guy. 1088 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 1: He has such a great spirit. He stands out there 1089 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:07,360 Speaker 1: with his helmet on even though he's not doing anything, 1090 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:09,879 Speaker 1: but he has the helmet on and he's out there 1091 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:11,960 Speaker 1: in the bag kind of going through the motions even 1092 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 1: though he's not doing much. But out of those guys, 1093 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 1: I think I would add did you say Donovan Wilson, Yes, 1094 00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: he's already we're saying he's already on the team. Okay, 1095 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,440 Speaker 1: if that's assuming that C J. Goodwin and Reggie Robinson. 1096 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 1: Basically you can take all three of those guys if 1097 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,880 Speaker 1: you want to use one of that, would I would? 1098 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:34,479 Speaker 1: I think that there would be some other guys coming 1099 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:37,360 Speaker 1: from other teams, But based on what we currently have 1100 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 1: on this roster, if I had to choose out of 1101 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:43,400 Speaker 1: those guys, I think I would keep those three guys 1102 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 1: because the secondary is just full of question marks. So 1103 00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 1: out of those, I just think we just need the bodies. 1104 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:55,160 Speaker 1: So it looks like under those circumstances, based on what 1105 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:57,600 Speaker 1: you guys have all said, cowboys will give up on 1106 00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:01,320 Speaker 1: Joe Jackson, Dorance Armstrong, they would give up on Luke Gifford, 1107 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,320 Speaker 1: they give up on Chris Westry. Those are the names 1108 00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,960 Speaker 1: that I think would be the most notable among the cuts. 1109 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 1: Based upon what you guys are saying, you guys all 1110 00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:12,480 Speaker 1: cool with that, Yeah, and remember about about you can 1111 00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,360 Speaker 1: say give up on Doran's armstrong and give up on 1112 00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 1: Joe Jackson. This team went ahead and signed Everson Griffin. 1113 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,120 Speaker 1: They went out and got Alden Smith, absolutely drafted Bradley 1114 00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:26,120 Speaker 1: and I I mean like they did those things, you know, 1115 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:30,080 Speaker 1: in the offseasoning knowing very well that Joe Jackson, dorn 1116 00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:32,200 Speaker 1: Troms Traum were on the team. So you know, it's 1117 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 1: not so much giving up. It's just that they had 1118 00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:36,600 Speaker 1: to protect themselves. And I don't think they've done anything 1119 00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 1: to say, whoa you know what about me? So I 1120 00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:44,000 Speaker 1: think I think you do have to move on. All 1121 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:45,920 Speaker 1: right With that, We're gonna wrap the show. We'll be 1122 00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,360 Speaker 1: back next week. Actually next week we start our daily shows. 1123 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:50,640 Speaker 1: We'll be at on next Tuesday. Our show will be 1124 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:54,120 Speaker 1: at eleven thirty every single week day, So starting next 1125 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:56,160 Speaker 1: to make Tuesday, make sure you jump in and join us. 1126 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 1: We'll be starting to get you guys ready for Cowboys 1127 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:00,840 Speaker 1: Versus Rams.
