WEBVTT - Cowboys Break: Exploring McCoy? 0:00:01.800 --> 0:00:04.320 The following. He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com 0:00:04.320 --> 0:00:07.480 and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club. Are you ready for 0:00:07.520 --> 0:00:12.160 a break? Are you ready for a break? Absolutely ready 0:00:12.320 --> 0:00:15.960 for a break. Yeah, and so much for that. It's 0:00:16.040 --> 0:00:21.919 time for the Break on Dallas Cowboys dot Com with 0:00:22.040 --> 0:00:28.160 Nick Eatman, David Hellman, and bar Garcia and Derek Eagleton. Hi, guys, 0:00:28.240 --> 0:00:32.600 welcome back to another episode of Cowboys Break. Football is 0:00:32.680 --> 0:00:36.080 one step closer. Time is moving, it is moving fast. 0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:39.840 OTAs have started this week. It started yesterday, but today 0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:42.080 is the first time that the media gets to see 0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:46.440 the whole team come together, where the rookies merge with 0:00:46.479 --> 0:00:49.320 the veterans and see how that looks. But before we 0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:51.760 get into OTAs and all that, I just wanted to 0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:55.440 clear things up, well, try to clear things up with 0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:58.920 Ezekiel Elliott and what happened with him in the incident 0:00:59.000 --> 0:01:01.280 in Las Vegas, because a lot of people are asking 0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:03.600 what's going on here, what's going to happen with him? 0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:06.720 And wanted to get an update from you guys if 0:01:06.880 --> 0:01:10.120 there is an update. Well, we probably made ourselves look 0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:12.240 like fools two years ago trying to predict what was 0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:14.960 going to happen with Zeke in a situation like that. 0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:18.840 He was not arrested, He was not charged with anything. 0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:22.400 Stephen Jones made that pretty clear on Monday afternoon after 0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:25.720 that news surfaced the videos on Twitter. I bet you've 0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:30.120 seen it if you're listening to this doesn't look like 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:34.200 a ton in terms of, you know, legal issues or 0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:39.720 criminal issues. But I would I am hesitant to try 0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:42.039 to predict what the NFL is going to do with 0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:46.680 disciplinary matters at this point after everything that I've seen 0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:48.960 in my time doing this. Yeah, I mean, it didn't 0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:52.320 look that bad. He having the elbow out didn't help. 0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:54.240 That's the only thing that I saw was the elbow 0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:56.520 was out. But really, what I take from this is 0:01:57.560 --> 0:02:01.200 it does it's probably and then you're right about being 0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:04.320 hesitant on this, It's probably going to be okay for Zeke. 0:02:04.800 --> 0:02:07.360 I don't think it helps Crawford at all because I 0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.200 think when you look now you're looking at videos to 0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:16.520 compare Tyrone Crawford's, you know, that video is way worse 0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:20.480 and in terms of and it draws more attention to 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:22.520 the Cowboys that the team is like, Okay, what's going on? 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:26.200 So I you know, I actually talked to Tyrone over 0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:30.720 the weekend, and he he said he felt like he 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:36.079 was okay legally, but again, you don't know NFL wise, 0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:38.520 he was, you know, probably concerned by that, you know, 0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:41.600 for missmissing a game or two or I would agree 0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:44.040 with that. So and I just don't think maybe, and 0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:46.440 I'm sure the NFL or anybody would be like, no, no, 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:48.359 two things are the same, but I think that they 0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:52.960 are in terms of okay, this one it's Zeke, you know, 0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:55.359 and here he is again. But I don't think it's 0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:58.640 just enough to to It doesn't look like enough. And 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.519 you know, there's uh, you know what was said right right? 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:05.400 Not no. He said something about like you know, why 0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:07.200 are you in my face or something like that, and 0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:09.280 the guy, you know, looked like a flop to me. 0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:12.919 But also it really happened like he barely touched him 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:15.000 with a nailbow and he just fell back. I will 0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:19.200 say this, I will. I mean that the video and 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:21.720 doesn't necessarily tell the whole story, you know, Like I always, 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:26.120 I hesitate to just have this ridiculously strong take just 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:28.639 based on forty seconds of video that I saw, and 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:32.680 I wasn't there. Um, it doesn't it doesn't look like 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:36.280 enough based on what's there. But again it's I mean, 0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:38.440 Roger Goodell is the only guy that has to have 0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:41.080 an opinion about this to change that conversation real quick. 0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:43.800 You know what Zeke did last year as far as 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:46.640 coming back and play, you know, from the suspension and 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:49.840 kind of I don't know about turning things around, but 0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:52.880 but he definitely, you know, had less incidents like that. 0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:56.560 He showed a lot of signs of maturity and he 0:03:56.920 --> 0:04:01.000 still does. But you know, the problem that I have 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:03.320 is is it's not so much that night, it's the 0:04:03.360 --> 0:04:06.160 next day, Like that's again I'm just, if I'm being honest, 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:08.840 I have a problem with that of him having a 0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:12.320 camp the next day and and treating it like well, 0:04:12.640 --> 0:04:15.640 you know it should be like but he made it right, 0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:18.479 he made it in Yeah. But if if the timeline 0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:22.680 of events is as described, he was doing stuff in 0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:26.560 Las Vegas at three am and then was here on 0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:30.000 the Star at the Star doing a camp like less 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:33.119 than twelve hours later, right, I just you know, that's 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:36.919 that's not a great look. But it's like you do 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:39.479 whatever you want the night before. You know, he didn't, 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:41.960 he didn't do anything wrong. But I agree with Nick 0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:44.520 that it's it's not an awesome look in my opinion. Yeah, 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:47.080 just just from you know, you think about it from 0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:50.039 you know, parents that pay their kids paying good money 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:52.440 to get to go there. Pro Bowl running back again. 0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:54.320 You don't want to you don't want to speculate, and 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:55.960 we're kind of getting a little close for that. But 0:04:55.960 --> 0:04:59.800 but the three am, all I know is that usually 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.599 I found out at three am, I'm probably not ready 0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:07.440 to go to work. Yeah that, and so now by 0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:11.120 twelve whatever and were again. I think everything's gonna be 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:13.719 fine there. But you know, it's a it's a little setback. 0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:16.360 Did one of you guys go to the camp? Not 0:05:16.400 --> 0:05:19.960 that one? I didn't, So we don't really know how 0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:23.120 it turned out with him or how much how he 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:26.080 acted his participation, you know, because if he was able 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.800 to participate enough, then it doesn't really matter. I've been 0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.720 to work with a hangover before. I cannot. I cannot 0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:34.280 to the Ranger game last night? Was that or it's 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:36.440 an a Mariners game? That was? It's a Mariners game 0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:38.880 they lost? I was. It was a very tame night. 0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:41.440 I'm not hungover right now? Do you think Zeke does 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:44.520 this more than more than we know? About too, Like 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:47.400 I think he's used to this kind of thing, I mean, 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:50.680 staying out, coming to work, being a running back. It's 0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:54.120 it's pretty He's twenty three years old, we know. I mean, 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:55.640 he likes to have fun, and that's his right. I 0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:57.880 mean a lot of these guys do they you know, 0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:00.840 they take trips all the time. I don't have a 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:03.760 single problem with that, good goodness, gracious, especially not in 0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:06.000 the offseason. I mean, that's what you should be doing 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.599 if you're twenty three and have the type of money 0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:11.520 that pro football players have. Um, and we talk about 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.400 this all the time though, the whole fact that this 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:18.360 is the situation, what we saw, it's something that people do. 0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:22.160 Young people do that and go through those scenarios instead. 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:24.200 But it just brings small light to him. It's tough. 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:26.800 It's tough because you want to be like, well, you 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:29.880 shouldn't be in those types of situations. It's like we've 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:32.679 all been there. Yeah, I have been there a million times. 0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:35.800 I agree all of that is is right. It's just 0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:40.200 that you had a really big work day the next morning. 0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:42.880 And that's that's the thing. That's that that's my only 0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:45.440 issue with it. Again, and I you know, you get. 0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:47.800 He has to realize that everyone's got a phone, everyone's 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:51.359 everyone's showing. You know, it's if you're gonna wear Lebron 0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:53.920 James jerseys like that. I mean, really, who's gonna wear 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:56.520 a jersey like that? Yeah? Who would ever do that? 0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.880 I don't know, it's it sucks. I mean, we had 0:06:59.880 --> 0:07:02.560 the camera on you that day too. The rules are different. 0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:04.840 The rules are different when you're Zeke Elliott, and it's 0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:07.200 you know, not necessarily fair to him. But so, what 0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:10.000 were some of the things that Stephen Jones? He really, 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:11.760 he really didn't say a whole lot. He said, we're 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:16.200 still gathering information, don't. I mean, he's right, which maybe 0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:17.800 we should listen to him. He said, it's unfair to 0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:20.160 really comment on it beyond the fact that we're still 0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:22.720 learning about it. This was Monday, so I'd assume they've 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:24.880 got a pretty clear picture by now. I'm sure Jason 0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:28.160 Garrett'll talked about it later today, Zeke may talk about 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.480 it himself. We'll see the locker room's going to be 0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:34.920 open today. Not sure, it doesn't seem like a huge deal, 0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:37.160 but it definitely is kind of a hiccup in what 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:40.760 had been a very you know, feel good offseason for him. Yeah. 0:07:41.000 --> 0:07:45.680 Now moving on to OTAs that started yesterday. Obviously this 0:07:45.760 --> 0:07:48.320 is far away from real football and we always talk 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:50.960 about it and it's not that exciting, but the media 0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:52.680 is out there and we get to watch some of 0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:55.720 the things that happened there. I wanted to get each 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:58.360 of your opinion and like, what are some of the 0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:02.720 things that you're looking for today, and like what to 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:05.800 watch for during this first practice that we'll get to see. 0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:07.920 Even though you're not above doing it, I'll do it 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:12.000 for you. Plug your article for yesterday. Dave wrote an 0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:15.680 article about five things to to really watch, so let 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:17.640 me I was kind of struggling by the end of it, 0:08:17.680 --> 0:08:19.760 to be honest with you, though, Like the time I 0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:22.520 got to number five, I was like, ah, just because 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.040 it's probably because you know what she just said. You 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:27.520 know that it's not right real like you're not really 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:29.920 going to be able to see if Connor McGovern could bloak. 0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:32.440 I don't want Yeah, oh, I could write twenty things, 0:08:32.520 --> 0:08:34.679 but I want to try to be as honest as possible. 0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:37.719 What was what was one number one for me was 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.240 just that this will be the first chance we get 0:08:40.280 --> 0:08:43.400 to see the offense under Kellen Moore and like air 0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:45.880 quotes big time because not really, but I mean it's 0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:48.120 still you know, it's stuff that he's installing and stuff 0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:51.840 that they're gonna use under him. I don't expect to 0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:56.839 see anything, you know, juicy, but it's still get some 0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:59.080 sort of look at like what he's trying to install 0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:01.040 on what they're trying to look Yeah for me, and 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:03.040 I think this was on your list too, Like I 0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:05.600 just want to see how we how we line up 0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:09.840 on offense, the offensive line, yeah, first and second teams. 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:13.080 You just what are we starting with here? You know, 0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:15.840 where's Frederick? Is he right there at the center spot? 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:20.520 And you know no issues there? Where's McGovern, Where's Suaphila 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:23.199 Looney those guys like that? Just just how it all 0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:26.080 shakes out to start with, and then you know it's 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:28.920 all subject to change, especially with injuries and stuff like that. 0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:31.360 I just want to kind of see where they where 0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:34.400 they have these guys. That was my number that was 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:37.120 my number four, I think. I mean, Frederick is expected 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:40.679 to be limited, so you know, don't know how much 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:43.160 you'll see of him. McGovern can play center and I 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.760 expect them to work him there. It's some a little 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:49.840 bit in the In the next month, um Lyle Collins 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:52.480 had a surgery that he's still coming back from, so 0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:57.880 that should be an opportunity for Cam Fleming. Yeah, I mean, 0:09:58.400 --> 0:10:00.880 I know it looks based which we you know, even 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:02.160 though we work here, we didn't get to go to 0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:06.240 yesterday's Ota, but based on photos and stuff, it looked 0:10:06.240 --> 0:10:08.160 like he was the first string left guard. So I 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:11.719 don't know about that. Yeah, Connor was, um, so I 0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:16.240 don't know about that. Yeah, I know that name. They 0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:18.120 do this stuff on purpose, is like they get as 0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:21.160 many similar names as they can. Um, you know, yeah, 0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:22.959 so you know, I don't know if that'll happen, but 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:25.520 there should be some shifting and some different stuff they 0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:28.200 can try out. That should be fun there. Um. One 0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:31.160 other one for me is again you're not going to 0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:34.120 see a lot of it, um just you know about 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:36.079 them tackling or anything like that. But I do want 0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:38.719 to kind of see that Sean Lee you know, in 0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:41.360 the in the sam position. You know, see what's going 0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:43.000 to happen there. If he's gonna be I mean, it 0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:46.520 sounds like he's going to be the starting strong side linebacker. Um. 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:49.120 You can definitely tell in the offseason that he has 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:52.079 changed his his physique a little bit. His upper body 0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:55.960 looks very noticeable that he is he's gotten bigger there um. 0:10:56.200 --> 0:10:59.360 So I'm anxious to see how how that plays out 0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:02.040 and if he can play that position. I mean, you 0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:04.240 can get those three linebackers on the field. I know 0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:06.120 they say they don't play bass a lot, but they 0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:09.360 might play it more of Sean Lee's there. I don't 0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:15.160 even want to talk about this injury wise because I no, no, no, 0:11:15.200 --> 0:11:17.840 it's but people mention it all the time. You know, 0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:22.280 injuries and how these let's say hamstring injuries happen a 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:25.800 lot during this time, and what he could possibly mean 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:27.720 for a guy like Sean Lee who is trying to 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:32.640 get back it is known his past record of injuries. 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:36.120 What if something like that happens during this time. See, 0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:38.080 that's why I think that it's a real interesting move. 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:41.480 They typically the strong side linebacker plays about twenty percent 0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:45.000 of the snaps, and the way the system is now, 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:48.120 when it's Damien Wilson or god give me some other names, 0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:52.760 that maybe oh geez, maybe Hitchens Wilbur did it for 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:54.920 a little while. I mean it's been Damien for the 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:57.000 last like four years and he doesn't play a whole 0:11:57.040 --> 0:12:02.400 lot so and no Taco. So if it's so, if 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:04.760 it's not, you know, so if he's not out there, 0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.360 it's it's something that they're used to playing with. Um, 0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:10.240 So it's kind of a good situation. It's almost like 0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:12.080 win win, Like if he's out there and he's healthy, 0:12:12.280 --> 0:12:14.840 they can do some different things. If not, it's not 0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:16.920 going to be much different than what they've done in 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.880 the past, which that also speaks you know, and it's 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:22.240 exciting because they're back on the field, but it's may 0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:25.640 and they'll probably limit what a lot of those guys 0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:28.360 do for that very reason is you know, not to 0:12:28.400 --> 0:12:30.000 set them back to the point where they might not 0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:32.000 be ready for training camp. That's another thing is you know, 0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:34.800 don't expect to see a lot of DeMarcus Lawrence. You know, 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:37.040 you know Kent now you can do the taco drop 0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:39.040 because he's probably not going to do a lot there 0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:42.960 we go. He just had an ankle surgery. So I 0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:44.760 expect to see a lot of young guys, you know, 0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:47.000 Like I said, Connor McGovern should get a lot of 0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:50.040 work at Center if Travis Frederick is limited. So I 0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:52.600 think there should be some cool opportunities there for some rookies. 0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:55.920 Mickey actually wrote an article about nine nine guys that 0:12:55.960 --> 0:12:59.440 were on us have surgeries that aren't going to be 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:01.880 participate rating here. I didn't really you know, you hear 0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:03.480 one or two here and you think, and I would 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.600 have thought four to five. And then you really break 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:07.800 it down to the Cindric Wilsons and all that I said, 0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:10.880 Lyle Collins had something done. I mean a lot of 0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:13.200 these happened a while ago. But again, you know, why 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:17.880 risk anything. Antoine Woods had a shoulder surgery. Byron Jones. 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:20.400 We're not going to see Byron. So there's an opportunity 0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:22.199 for some of your young corners right there. I think 0:13:22.200 --> 0:13:25.559 we'll see Woods. Antoine Woods. I would expect so because 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:28.600 he had his surgery in January. And that's why what's 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:31.520 interesting about that for me is it's really the same 0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:34.920 surgery as what DeMarcus Lawrence had, and so you want 0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:37.840 to see when he came back and he actually was 0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:40.800 fortunate to have it right seasons over? Is it? You know, 0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:43.240 where's this going to play? Because you go back to 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:46.800 that first game against the Giants and you think, I 0:13:46.800 --> 0:13:49.440 think we talked about this last week who from the 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:51.640 defensive line. Do you are you sure is going to 0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:53.760 be there? I mean, do you know d Law will 0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:57.640 be there? Maybe you, Randy Gregory. There's no way you 0:13:57.640 --> 0:14:01.079 can even predict that. And all signs would pointed probably not, 0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:06.200 Tyrone Crawford, probably not. Maybe. So you look at the 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:10.240 defensive end, that's three three guys there. That's I mean, 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:14.640 Jalen Jelks and those guys you know, Joe Jackson, Oran's Armstrong. Yeah, 0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:18.440 I mean, it's although don't every year. Don't forget Quinn though, 0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:20.840 but yeah, oh yeah, I mean Robert Quinn for sure. 0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:25.040 And I'm just saying, and this team has gotten really 0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:28.440 good at saying, okay, well these players will play Week 0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:30.840 one because we have a defensive starter that's going to 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:33.200 be suspended. I mean, what are we at six years 0:14:33.200 --> 0:14:36.720 in a row? Now? Maybe? Yeah, I mean maybe yeah. 0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:41.360 I mean it's circul to the Rolando mcclean's and d Law, 0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:49.200 David Irving, Gregory long list Gregory, uh Gregory, you know right, 0:14:50.040 --> 0:14:57.280 Brandon Carr, Hey, hey, don't start listing never missed games. No, 0:14:57.360 --> 0:14:59.800 it's really interesting. I mean usually when you look at 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:04.600 I can't hear that. I just kind of a little bit. 0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:07.240 I forgot you're not wearing your head I kind of 0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:11.840 could hear a little bit. Car Clayborne and Scandrid Nice 0:15:11.880 --> 0:15:15.200 anywhere are those headphones? Well they really go to that one. 0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:16.880 I'm waiting on Derek to come in. I was just 0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:19.560 gonna say, it's really interesting because at first your initial 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:21.560 thought is to get kind of freaked out when you 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:24.480 see this this type of list of injured guys and 0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:28.800 are recovering and all that stuff. But when what that 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:31.880 does it allows to create opportunities for these other guys 0:15:31.920 --> 0:15:35.320 and allows the Cowboys to prepare this early on for 0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:37.920 when the season starts and kind of figure out who 0:15:37.920 --> 0:15:41.680 the backup guys will be and earned the spot. Yeah yeah, 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:44.320 and I mean it starts, it starts this month. Although 0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:47.880 you know, again what I don't Why do I always 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.000 apologize for sounding like a wet blanket, like that's what 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:53.120 I do. But I just remember last year, you know, 0:15:53.440 --> 0:15:56.120 g hot Ward looked great and he was like the 0:15:56.200 --> 0:15:58.840 starting He was a starter on the d line because 0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:02.560 Malie Collins was out out and people were real high 0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:05.560 on him, and it clearly didn't work out. Dayton Jones 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:07.400 was another one and didn't play a game in the 0:16:07.440 --> 0:16:09.640 regular season that was more because of injury than anything. 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:13.400 But you know it's going to change big time between 0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:16.600 what we see without pads here in May and you 0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:19.480 know what the team actually does on roster cutday. Yeah, well, 0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:21.520 let's go ahead and take a quick break. When we 0:16:21.600 --> 0:16:24.960 come back, we'll keep disconsin OTAs and everything that's going 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:29.520 on around the Cowboys. While a player could look good 0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:31.880 on paper, it's one he's out on the field that 0:16:31.920 --> 0:16:34.760 you really find out what he's made of. That's why 0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:37.840 the Cowboys rely on more than just stats and scouting 0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:41.560 reports when building their team. When picking a tractor, it's 0:16:41.600 --> 0:16:44.360 why you should rely on more than just specs and features. 0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:46.560 You've got to take it out and put it to 0:16:46.600 --> 0:16:49.600 the test.

Now, 0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:35.520 we found out not too long ago that the Buccaneers 0:18:35.560 --> 0:18:39.520 released defensive tackle Jural McCoy, and I wanted to check 0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:41.560 in with you guys if you thought that the Cowboys 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:44.879 have any interest in bringing him back, especially after with 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:48.960 this cause all day injuries and scenarios here. Yeah. I 0:18:49.040 --> 0:18:53.280 think it was Adam Schefter from NFL or where is 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:57.720 Adam Schefter? Sorry? He um listed the Cowboys as some 0:18:57.880 --> 0:19:00.360 potential teams that he would be you know, that might 0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:02.879 be has some interest there. I don't think that the 0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:05.080 Cowboys have come out and said that they're you know, 0:19:05.280 --> 0:19:07.639 I mean, Cowboys haven't said there's any interest. We'll see today. 0:19:07.680 --> 0:19:09.840 But I don't think you just talking to some people 0:19:09.880 --> 0:19:13.080 that there would be Tristan Hill. They drafted him and 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:16.720 they have the money for it. But I just I 0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:18.560 just don't see that as a as a guy that 0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:22.160 they would they would turn in here, because, like I said, 0:19:22.240 --> 0:19:24.640 they know they have some young guys that they liked there, 0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:27.800 and I think the focus would be on just so 0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:30.359 many other players that you did you have to sign. 0:19:30.600 --> 0:19:33.439 He's not going to get a big deal, but you know, 0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:35.600 I just I just see there would probably be teams 0:19:35.600 --> 0:19:37.640 with more money, with maybe a better fit for him. 0:19:37.840 --> 0:19:41.040 I mean, it's totally conceivable that they could get out bid. 0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:43.840 He is a six time pro bowler. And it doesn't 0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:45.720 you know, just from being around here, it doesn't sound 0:19:45.720 --> 0:19:47.480 like there's a whole lot of interest. I don't really 0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:49.639 get it. I think this is the rare example of 0:19:49.640 --> 0:19:51.600 a guy that would be Taylor made to go after. 0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:54.840 He's thirty one years old. He's had some injury issues 0:19:55.200 --> 0:19:58.480 that should keep his price relatively low. Tristan Hill is 0:19:58.520 --> 0:20:01.080 the only defensive tackle of the significance on this team 0:20:01.080 --> 0:20:06.480 that's under contract beyond this season. And I know they 0:20:06.480 --> 0:20:08.200 feel when they always feel good about their guys. I 0:20:08.240 --> 0:20:09.720 know they love to say that, but like, which of 0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:12.199 the guys that's on this team is definitively better than 0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:13.840 a six time pro bowler? Right now? Let me ask 0:20:13.840 --> 0:20:16.160 you this question, Dave. When you say go after are 0:20:16.200 --> 0:20:18.880 you are you willing to go go in on a 0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:22.080 multi year deal for significant money or when you say 0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:24.480 go after is it if it falls to you, you 0:20:24.560 --> 0:20:26.480 make it known to him and his agent. Hey, we're 0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:29.920 interested talking, but it's only if the deal works that 0:20:30.040 --> 0:20:33.240 it's just a one year for relatively little money. I 0:20:33.240 --> 0:20:35.160
