We'll see 30 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 6: what time looks like as we go throughout the show, 31 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 6: but I'll explain that when we get to that segment. 32 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,639 Speaker 6: Let's start first with schedule release. It comes up tonight. 33 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 6: We have some fun stuff planned for you fans tonight 34 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 6: that will when we release the Cowboys schedule. But there 35 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 6: always has been one game that has been released by 36 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 6: the NFL. Week one Cowboys will travel to Cleveland, and 37 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 6: I think, well, let me first just say I would 38 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 6: love for all you guys to tell me what your 39 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 6: thoughts are on the game, but I'm just gonna start 40 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 6: it with two words, Miles Garrett, and I'll toss it 41 00:01:58,560 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 6: out there and let y'all go. 42 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 7: I think three words baptism by fire for Tyler Goyton. 43 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 7: And of course this is as we have the conversation, 44 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 7: Tyler Goton still has to earn the starting role at 45 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 7: left tackles, so he's going to have to go through 46 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 7: that crash course this summer that we talked about, and 47 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 7: that also includes what he's doing across the street with 48 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 7: our friend Duke mini Weather. So he's putting in the work. 49 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 7: He started fairly early. We're in the airbnb only two 50 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 7: days after the draft. After he got the draft call. 51 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:25,839 Speaker 7: He wanted to get to work and so he did. 52 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 7: But there's no other way to paint it other than 53 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 7: Miles Garrett is going to put him through the ringer, 54 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 7: and he better be ready because he's going to have 55 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 7: to learn real fast what it feels like to go 56 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 7: against one of the best pass rushers in the NFL. 57 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,239 Speaker 7: Five time All Pro, five time Pro Bowler, raining the 58 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 7: NFL Defensive Player of the Year. We're about to find 59 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 7: out exactly what Tyler Goyton can do at the NFL level. 60 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 3: Any thoughts on that one, ag Well, I mean it 61 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 3: was interesting. 62 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 8: So yesterday the coordinators and the coaches got a time 63 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 8: to speak to the media, and it was interesting more 64 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 8: so than just gutting the the the battles and the 65 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,839 Speaker 8: shuffling around the O line and the guys that are 66 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 8: planning to try out kind of at center. And we thought, 67 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 8: you know, we've talked about Tyler. Uh no, no, no, 68 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 8: TJ Bass is what I was saying. TJ Basses and 69 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 8: there's so many names with teams and but it's it's 70 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 8: interesting because it's gonna be a really good competition just 71 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 8: to see more so than just Tyler guy and what 72 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 8: he's doing there. Yes, that's definitely gonna be a big challenge. 73 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 8: But we know that the O line works as a 74 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 8: whole and it's a whole effort, team effort there. 75 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 9: But BB TJ. 76 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 8: Bass kind of competing at the center position and seeing 77 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 8: what that's gonna look like, Uh, it's gonna it's gonna 78 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 8: be a very big challenge. And that's one of the 79 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 8: things I've been most concerned of because when you see 80 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 8: these guys, these young players, they have the size, they 81 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 8: look good like size wide do you have a lot 82 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 8: of guys that looked the part, But now are they 83 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 8: gonna be ready to take on that big challenge right 84 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 8: off the bat? 85 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 9: And and that's gonna be tough. 86 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 8: And that's my biggest concern is the lack of experience 87 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 8: and the mind of growth. You know, rookies do need 88 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 8: some time to develop and kind of go in there. 89 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 8: But like you said, how baptism by fire. I never 90 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 8: heard that word before or that's saying, but it's definitely 91 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 8: gonna be some type of baptism. 92 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a it's never easy. I mean, this 93 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 3: whole schedule's full of guys for a rookie guy's you know, 94 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 3: we will see how they adapt. Some of them adapt 95 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 3: very well. Someone played a very high level. Uh. You know, 96 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 3: early season games you're kind of, you know a little 97 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 3: bit at the mercy of your conditioning, you know. And 98 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 3: we've seen games where you feel like guys are going 99 00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 3: to get you know, especially pass rushers, they're going to 100 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 3: get started, and you know that they got to get 101 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 3: a little rhythm. And you know, a guy like you know, 102 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 3: Miles Garrett, he ain't gonna play a lot of preseason games, 103 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 3: you know, and what's his conditioning going to be like 104 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 3: opening day? Uh? You know, what is the condition going 105 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 3: to be like for a lot of these players. So 106 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 3: when you absolutely if this was say a week six, 107 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 3: week seven matchup, I would feel a little bit more worried. 108 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 3: But early season, you don't know. I mean there's things 109 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 3: about the Browns. There's things scheme wise they can do 110 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 3: to work around Miles Garrett. There are things to do. 111 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 3: They can chip, they can space him, they could put 112 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 3: you know, they can make him have to play wider. Uh, 113 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 3: you know with all that we were talking about, so 114 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 3: to me, he he doesn't know a lot about Tyler Geyiton, 115 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: you know, I mean how much does he know about 116 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 3: his pass rush of blocking ability? You know, there are 117 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 3: things that got you know, he might be surprised with 118 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 3: Giton's length. You know, he might be surprised with Guidon's height, 119 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 3: and you know, and his athletic ability that you know, 120 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 3: if you're going to play against Males Garrett, you better 121 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 3: be ready to be a really good foot athlete because 122 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 3: he's going to carry you. Why he's going to carry 123 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 3: you inside, He's going to carry you a lot of 124 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 3: places his kids. Yeah, it will be it'll be an 125 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 3: eye opener for him. But there's ways. This is what 126 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 3: these coaching staffs do. They spend all off season now 127 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 3: now that they know the Cleveland Browns are Week one. 128 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 3: Now you figure out ways to just look at every 129 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 3: single game and how people play it against Miles Garrett 130 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: and figure out what's the best way to neutralize him. 131 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: You're not going to stop him every single time, but 132 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 3: his unknown about about Guiden and Guidan's unknown about him 133 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 3: might play due an advantage for the Cowboys and then 134 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 3: also the conditioning of week one. We've seen players deal 135 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 3: with cramps, not they don't have their win, not ready 136 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 3: in real good football shape at that point in time. 137 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 3: This might be an advantage playing a guy in Week one. Y. 138 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 9: So how would you guys handle pre season? I mean, 139 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 9: do you have your play. 140 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 8: But you have your your center and left and left 141 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 8: tackle play with the backups at the other positions, you 142 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 8: just play. 143 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 6: They play a lot in I think in the preseason 144 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 6: games when the other starters come out, they stay in it. 145 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 8: But I'm talking about the other veterans, like the starters 146 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 8: or Si Martin your purposes. 147 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 9: Just getting a line. I'm just asking. 148 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 8: I know we're against like having the starters out there 149 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 8: during the preseason, but based on the you know, getting 150 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 8: everybody on, you're. 151 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 7: Right as far as because we talked about about it 152 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 7: last year when the Cowboys had injuries, and we talked 153 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 7: about how many games does offensive line need to play 154 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 7: together to have that chemistry? And I think it comes 155 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 7: up to round four in my head. But you have 156 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 7: to also weigh it against who we're talking about. So 157 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 7: for example, we're talking about Zach Martin. Zach Martin number 158 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 7: one doesn't need the preseason reps, and it's risk versus 159 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 7: reward in that the risk that you have with him 160 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 7: being out there possible injury versus the chemistry. Zach can 161 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 7: get the chemistry quickly from week one, two, three, as 162 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 7: long as it's a cohesive unit to start the season. 163 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 7: So I'm not worried about Zach Martin getting the cohesiveness 164 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 7: or Terrence Steele for example. But with the rookies, I 165 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 7: see what you're saying there, because it. 166 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 9: Was a big talk class. 167 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 6: But you know, I will say this, if it were 168 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 6: me making the decision, I might consider putting four of 169 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 6: those five guys out there and playing them a little 170 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 6: bit more in the preseason. 171 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 3: Zach. 172 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 6: I don't need Zach to touch the field everyseason. The 173 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 6: other four, though, give me Bass out there with him, 174 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 6: and I'll put that five out there, and I'll let 175 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 6: him run through the first quarter, maybe the first quarter 176 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 6: and a half, just to give give me a little 177 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 6: bit of time to see them together and let them 178 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 6: work together. Because I do think, especially on the left 179 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 6: side of the line, Tyler is important to that because 180 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 6: he's got a guy on the right and a left 181 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 6: on the left that are new and so them having 182 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 6: some time together I think might be very important. So 183 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 6: I might consider doing a little bit more with my 184 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 6: younger guys like Tyler Smith, and maybe even with Steele. 185 00:08:58,240 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 2: I just wouldn't do it with Zack. 186 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, and I'm fun doing with Tyler Smith because of 187 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 7: the age factor. 188 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 3: They need to play halves. I mean, the young guys 189 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 3: need to think about playing a half of a game. Yeah, 190 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 3: they definitely. Yeah, and especially if we're trying to get 191 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 3: an evaluation of Trey Lance. How much is Dak gonna 192 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 3: play in these games? You know? And we're trying to 193 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 3: figure out running back by committee. Yeah, we know the 194 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 3: number fifteen can run the ball. We've seen, you know, 195 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 3: Rico Daudell run the ball. But you know who else? 196 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 3: You know who else you know who is going to be? 197 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 3: I think you're only gonna carry. You need to get 198 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 3: duz Von going. You need to figure out what douce 199 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 3: Vawn is or it's going to be we're gonna get 200 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 3: down to the final cut and we're gonna like, we're 201 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 3: gonna have Ducevawn on the bubble and we're all gonna 202 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:37,839 Speaker 3: look at each other and go, we really didn't know 203 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 3: what Ducevon is, you know, they've got to figure out. 204 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 3: There's a lot of things and by if you're playing 205 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 3: these young linemen Bbe Smith, you know, Guidon. If you're 206 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 3: playing these young guys, then you get an opportunity not 207 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 3: only to evaluate them, but you're evaluating your quarterback. You're 208 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 3: how about the receivers out there too, You're trying to 209 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 3: find a third guy right now. So there's a lot 210 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 3: of things going. 211 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 7: And kind of dove tailing off of that looking at 212 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 7: the Browns matchup, Excited to see what Guyton does in 213 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 7: this baptism by fire against Miles Garrett. But we talk 214 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 7: about how the Cowboys offensive line needs to improve run blocking. Well, 215 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 7: now we're going to look at Tyler Smith, Cooper BB, 216 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 7: and of course Zach Martin going up against Dalvin Tomlinson 217 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 7: for example, right going up against Shelby Harris. So they're 218 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,719 Speaker 7: going to have their hands full as well. You're talking 219 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 7: about young guys trying to figure it out. Well, Cooper BB, 220 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 7: he plays with this particular bullying demeanor. He wants to 221 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 7: dirt guys. Well, you're going to get some veterans that 222 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 7: don't often get dirty, right, So we want to see 223 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 7: what the run game can be. But half of that 224 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 7: equation is going to be how this front three performs 225 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,719 Speaker 7: against their defensive tackles, and they have some good ones 226 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 7: in Cleveland. The good news is for the Cowboys is 227 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 7: that the defensive coordinator that's here now, Mike Zimber, he 228 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 7: knows Tomlinson will and he knows Zadarius Thomas well, for example, 229 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 7: so he has some inside information that will helped this offense. 230 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 6: Well, don't lose sight of the fact that just like 231 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 6: the offense is going to have a challenge, the defense 232 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 6: will also have a challenge going up against the likes 233 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 6: of Deshaun and Nick Chubbs and of. 234 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: Course Mary Cooper. 235 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 6: That's the other storyline is it gets really interesting is 236 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 6: that you go there and you have to face Mary 237 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 6: Cooper and I'm sure he's he's already. 238 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 9: Something to playing at home. 239 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure that. 240 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 7: Will be a game that, all things considered, if it 241 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 7: continues as it is or it's gave us a great 242 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 7: update on trevon dig yesterday said he's on schedule. He 243 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 7: didn't want to put timeline on it because that's for 244 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 7: Britt Brown and his staff, but it sounds as if 245 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 7: Trayvon is on track to be on the field week one. 246 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 7: But which version of Trayvon are we going to see 247 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 7: week one going against a guy like a Mary Cooper 248 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 7: or will they put bland on Cooper and let Trayvon 249 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 7: have a little bit of grace because he's coming back 250 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 7: from town ac. 251 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 3: I hate to say, history is not shown that these 252 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 3: guys are coming back from injuries immediately jump in. Yeah, 253 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 3: you know, we've seen all of a sudden Week six, 254 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 3: Week seven, they start to look a little bit more 255 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 3: like the player before they got hurt. Those are the 256 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 3: things you always got to keep in mind. 257 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 10: I've been landed on Cooper and give Trayvon some grace there. Yeah. 258 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 6: To be honest with you, my guess is that they're 259 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 6: going to move Cooper around a little bit so you 260 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 6: may get him. Yeah, And I don't know that I'd 261 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 6: start moving guys just to stay with Cooper. I think 262 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 6: you kind of match up and you see where you go. 263 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 3: Uh. 264 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 2: The good thing. 265 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 6: About it for for some of those guys, at least 266 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 6: they've practiced against Mary Cooper, right, they kind of they 267 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 6: have some experience with him, so they kind of know 268 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 6: what he likes to do. They have some tail signs 269 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 6: on him, and by the way it goes both ways, 270 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 6: he probably has some tail signs on them as well. 271 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 6: But it'll be interesting matchups. And I think this matchup 272 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 6: is a very interesting for the one for the Cowboys 273 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 6: against an AFC team to begin the season for all 274 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 6: of the reasons we just mentioned. It will be a fun, 275 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 6: fun matchup. 276 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 10: All right, We're gonna go ahead, and the quarterback mobile 277 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 10: quarterback too. 278 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 6: Yeah, And honestly, Deshaun Watson is probably one of the 279 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 6: biggest He's probably one of the biggest question marks in 280 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 6: the entire NFL from the standpoint of will he or 281 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:47,079 Speaker 6: when he when will he resume his career in the 282 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 6: way that it was before he was out of football. 283 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 6: If Yeah, we don't know if, but if and when, 284 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 6: like if he gets back to that and then you're 285 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 6: combining with the running game with Chubb and with the 286 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 6: Marii Cooper and with Miles Garrett on the defense side 287 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 6: of the ball, they got some pieces, like, they got 288 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 6: some pieces to be a very very dangerous team. 289 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 3: So it'll be interesting. 290 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 7: This linebackers is going to get tested too, So thank goodness, 291 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 7: Eric Kendricks is in the building and we'll see overshown 292 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 7: he might need some grace. We talked about Trayvon Diggs 293 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 7: might need some grace. But you're going to get some 294 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 7: mobile quarterback. He's going to try to, you know, burn 295 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:17,719 Speaker 7: those edges. Your linebacker is going to have to be 296 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 7: disciplined and have the ability to know when to go 297 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 7: chase and know when to drop back and no when 298 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 7: to change gears. 299 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 10: So linebacker is going to get tested on. 300 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 3: I forgot they traded for Jerry Judy too from Denver. 301 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah, the oh wow, yeah. 302 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I forgot all about that. Yeah, well, David and Joku, 303 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 3: the tight ends a really athletic guys, Jerry Judy and 304 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 3: and then you know with Cooper, I mean they've got 305 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 3: they've got capable guys on that. 306 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: That's a good roster. 307 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 6: So that's gonna be a very very big test for 308 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 6: the Cowboys on the road to start Week one. 309 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 7: You know. 310 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 8: But like Mike McCarthy likes to say that, he likes 311 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 8: to find out early on what we got, you know, 312 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:53,719 Speaker 8: So that's gonna be well, here we. 313 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 3: Go there early on. 314 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 6: But by the way, that's the NFL, Like there are 315 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 6: as you're kind of mentioned there, Brian, there are probably 316 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 6: ten games on the schedule this year where you're like, oh, 317 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 6: that's going to be a very, very tough matchup. Like, 318 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 6: there are a lot of good teams in the NFL, 319 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 6: especially right now. When you're looking at the rosters, you're like, man, 320 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 6: they got a lot of weapons. We'll see how it 321 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 6: all plays out once you get there. 322 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 3: I know, I was terrified of a Week two game 323 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 3: against the Jets until I saw what happened to Week one. 324 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, rights, it could change everything, Yeah, absolutely, But it's 325 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 5: also different going against because even last year, Yeah, the 326 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 5: Giants saw your a divisional rival for Week one, and 327 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 5: there's familiarity there, et cetera, et cetera. 328 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 7: But it's suffices to say, even if we were having 329 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 7: this conversation before Week one last year and then comparing 330 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 7: it against what we're saying with the Browns, this Browns 331 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 7: matchup is a light years more difficulty. So the Giants, 332 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 7: I mean, nobody expected to forty the old blowout at MetLife, 333 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 7: But it's those are two different teams. 334 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 2: Those are not the same team. 335 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 10: Those are not the same team. 336 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 7: So that that could be respectfully viewed as kind of 337 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 7: a ramp up getting into the season. 338 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 10: This is not that this is let's go. 339 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 6: All right, let's take our first break, let's come back, 340 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 6: Let's get some observations from the rookie mini camp. 341 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 2: We'll be back, Dallas, Cowboys dot Com Radio. 342 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 11: Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the 343 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 11: cheetah Savannah.

I 405 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 6: want to go around the table each of you guys, 406 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 6: give me one observation. It can be from when you 407 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 6: first met guys to what you saw on the field, 408 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 6: to any locker room interviews. One observation that really stood 409 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 6: out to you about any player that is a rookie 410 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 6: that showed up last weekend. 411 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 2: Let's start with you, Brian. 412 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 3: You know, Mike Zimber told us that he was working 413 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 3: with Mozzie Smith on his stance, and I'm thinking, like stance. 414 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 3: You know, football players know about stances. They're honestly working 415 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 3: with guys on their stance. I was I was looking 416 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 3: down at the other end of the field and when 417 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 3: you when you look at the defensive tackles down there 418 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 3: with Justin Rodgers and Denzel Dason and Marshawn Neelan and 419 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 3: those guys, it's so funny how you draft somebody and 420 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 3: when you bring them in you have to completely turn 421 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 3: them around, you turn them into something. So it really 422 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 3: was the the observations for me, I'm like ohing, gosh, 423 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 3: they're they're they're working on steps, They're literally working on stance, 424 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 3: and so to me, it's the basics of just trying 425 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 3: to get these kids acclimated to what they're uh to 426 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 3: what they're gonna do. You're gonna get a lot more 427 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 3: of an evaluation when we get the veterans and they 428 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 3: can work together. We'll see some team periods and things 429 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 3: like that, which will give you a better idea. But 430 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 3: it is really about the basics when you bring these 431 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 3: guys in, and so you know the size physically, how 432 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 3: these guys look. I was really super impressive. I could 433 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 3: just real quick these safeties that they had Themanny Johnson 434 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 3: and Julius Wood. Those are two really good looking safeties 435 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,239 Speaker 3: that they brought in, big guys, and so you know, 436 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 3: it's good to see some size. It's good to see 437 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 3: the idea of what they were having at some certain positions. 438 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 3: But it all boils down to can you even line 439 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 3: up and get in a stance? That might be the 440 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 3: most important thing I learned from that camp that there's 441 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 3: going to be some work of having to maybe convert 442 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 3: some guys and take them into Okay, you might have 443 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 3: done it this way in college, but we need you 444 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 3: to do it this way for what we're doing. 445 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 7: A couple of things, first and foremost more, Shawn Niland 446 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 7: is physically impressive. You know that by looking at the film. 447 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 7: But it's not until you are standing right in front 448 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 7: of him, until you realize at that moment that this 449 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 7: guy's a specimen. He has the size of the mask 450 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 7: and he is absolutely chiseled. And I love his demeanor 451 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 7: as well as kind of like this soft smile that 452 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 7: you know it's that fafo and if you know the Academy, 453 00:19:58,440 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 7: you know what I'm going for there. 454 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 10: He wants to get on the field and really do 455 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 10: some damage. 456 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 7: And I think there's a reason why the Cowboys saw 457 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 7: so much in him to use a second round pick 458 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 7: on that guy. So that's one as Marshaw Kneeland is 459 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 7: much more physically impressive in real life than film would indicate. 460 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 7: Second for me is the battle at center, and Bar 461 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 7: touched on this earlier because it's something that Mike Celari 462 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 7: said yesterday in the Q and A. 463 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 10: TJ. 464 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 7: Bass is going to be competing at center alongside brock Hoffman, 465 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 7: alongside Cooper BB. I had my eyes glued to Cooper 466 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 7: BB seeing how comfortable he was in the context of granted, 467 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 7: the veterans were not there. It's not a full offensive 468 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 7: line in rookie Minnie camp that's down until effective yesterday, 469 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 7: but he did look for what he was doing. He 470 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 7: looked comfortable. He looked comfortable pointing out the pre snap 471 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 7: identifiers and things like that. And that also goes to 472 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 7: the fact that in speaking with BB, he said that 473 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 7: he's been putting a lot of work into his transition 474 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 7: to center off of the field, so to the point 475 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 7: where he said he'll be at home, and we asked, well, 476 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 7: you know who's catching your snap and he said, anyone 477 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 7: who's willing, Like he's throwing snaps to his dad, to 478 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 7: his mom, to his brother, like whoever is willing to 479 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,439 Speaker 7: get out there in the yard and catch his snaps. 480 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 7: And it's starting to kind of show in how quickly 481 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 7: he's being able to transition. So for me, it's Cooper 482 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 7: Bebe's transition at center. But also the light bulb coming 483 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 7: on saying, hey, this isn't simply Cooper BB versus brock Hoffman. 484 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 10: They're throwing TJ. 485 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 7: Bass in there as well, because Mike Slari said perfectly, 486 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 7: they'd like to have maybe three available centers when they 487 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 7: go into any given game. 488 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 3: Mike Solari keeps reminding us about Hoffman. He is not 489 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 3: gonna let us Steven Jones. He is not going to 490 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 3: let us forget about Hoffman. 491 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 10: Yah. 492 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 2: It seems like they really like a lot of people 493 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:38,239 Speaker 2: in the front office like him. 494 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and that's you know, you draft BB and 495 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 3: we've all got plug and Play in mind, and we've 496 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 3: got BB as that guy. And you're right, he's going 497 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 3: to have to work on snap step. You know, those 498 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 3: are things that his life has always been. Hand on 499 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 3: the ground, step go kind of thing. Now you have 500 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 3: to snap make sure it's there and then you get 501 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 3: to go. But yeah, everybody's got him just plug and play, 502 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 3: and everybody in the organization is kind of like, I 503 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 3: just give a chance. I think they keep reminding you. 504 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 6: About Hoffing some of the conversations I've had from with 505 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 6: people around here. I think the reason why there's that 506 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 6: level of respect for him is because. 507 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,400 Speaker 2: The work is a worker man. 508 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 6: He is where, he's always here, He's always it's still 509 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 6: like yeah, and I think there's something that that's respected 510 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 6: in this business when you find somebody that's just willing 511 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 6: to put in the work. 512 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 3: We remember Joe Philbin, you know, Joe Philben fell in 513 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 3: love with Terrence still when I was throwing dirt all 514 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 3: over him, you know, I was not giving Terrence still 515 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 3: the opportunity, even the light of day, to be a 516 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 3: starting right tackle in the National Football League. And you know, 517 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 3: Joe Philbin kept her mind us first in last out 518 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 3: weight room. Guy likes to likes to study film, asks 519 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 3: a bunch of questions, very intensive. Coaches love those guys. 520 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 3: They love those guys. They don't I mean, yeah, they 521 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 3: have to coach them, but they love the self motivated guy. 522 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 3: And I think that this is I think this is 523 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 3: the if you talk about pet Cat for an offensive 524 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 3: line coach with Mike Clari, I think that Hoffin's guy. 525 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 3: And he is going to always remind you, you know, 526 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 3: every time, well you know, you talk about Bibe, talked 527 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 3: about Bibe to well, you know what, this Hoffman kid, 528 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 3: we got a he's a tough kid, you know. He 529 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 3: he he would go out of his way to mention Hoffman. 530 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 3: We interviewed him on day three of the draft talking 531 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 3: about Hoffman, What did you do out there in front 532 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 3: of the media day he thought he brought up Hoffmin again, 533 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 3: really didn't even talk about really a lot of other guys, 534 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 3: Howfmin was a guy that he wanted to point out. So, yeah, 535 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 3: that similar there's gonna be a battle there, there's going 536 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 3: to be a battle. 537 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 9: About a year ago. 538 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 8: I mean it was kind of similar to TJ Bass. 539 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 8: TJ Bass was the guy that everyone kept bringing up, 540 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 8: even when you weren't talking about him necessarily, people teammates 541 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 8: would bring him up and talk about how like impressive 542 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 8: he's been and all of that and what he's shown. 543 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,160 Speaker 8: But another thing that was brought up that I think 544 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 8: it's important was he reminded us of you can only 545 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 8: dress x amount of play on game dates, So it 546 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 8: is very important. Something that they're keeping in mind is 547 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 8: just making sure they're kind of dividing repetitions at different 548 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 8: spots to where they do have that versatility to where 549 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 8: if anything was to happen, you do have guys that 550 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 8: already have been practicing getting some reps there. So I 551 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 8: think that's very very valuable too, not only see but 552 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 8: also here that they're focusing on that. But something that 553 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 8: was impressive to me and I always talk about wanting 554 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,479 Speaker 8: to talk to the players, getting a vibe and all 555 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 8: of that, and something that stood out for me is 556 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 8: like this time around and it always has been this way, 557 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 8: except this year, it wasn't like. 558 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 9: Oh look at that baby, Oh a little baby, and 559 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 9: then I'm like, damn, I'm old. 560 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 2: Oh my god. 561 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 8: I started just like you when I got here, But 562 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 8: I got in front of men that look like mature, 563 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 8: grown men, not only in the way they looked physically 564 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 8: as far as like height and shape and form and 565 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 8: all of that, but also the way they presented themselves 566 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 8: to work, and they looked very comfortable. 567 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 2: Has changed the game. 568 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 6: College kids come in that way savvy when it comes 569 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 6: to the media than they did before. 570 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 10: Is a perfect example Hit the how he addresses the media. 571 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 9: So that was impressive to me. 572 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 8: Just the confidence, the way they spoke, the confidence and 573 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 8: and the maturity maturity that they seem to have right 574 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,360 Speaker 8: off the bat, that they look like once we see 575 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 8: them with the veterans, that they'll fit in very well. 576 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 3: The pandemic also gave everybody an extra year. You have 577 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 3: some six year guys now college football. 578 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 10: Shouts out to COVID. 579 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 6: All right, here's another question I have for you guys 580 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 6: about the weekend, and really this is about the draft 581 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 6: class and undrafted free agents who the Cowboys have signed. 582 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 2: Who do you think is more of a lock to 583 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 2: be a starter in Week one? 584 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 3: A lock? A lock? If you had to okay, depending 585 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 3: on what happens at right defensive end. Does Marshawn Neelan 586 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 3: do more than Sam Williams. That's the question you have 587 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 3: to ask yourself right there? 588 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,360 Speaker 6: Are you assuming Micah would be pencil down as I'll 589 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 6: start at linebacker? 590 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:14,360 Speaker 14: Yeah? 591 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 3: I think so. I mean maybe this offensive line group, 592 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 3: maybe the left tackle probably would be a guy that 593 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 3: you would say is a lock. But I was trying 594 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 3: to go differently because I kind of feel like that 595 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 3: those line positions that might be a lock. But if 596 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 3: you're going I wouldn't be surprised. I'm gonna put a 597 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 3: lot of pressure on this kid. This Kayln Carson's a 598 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 3: hell of a football player, right of way. First, if 599 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 3: he plays well enough outside during training camp, could that 600 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 3: mean you kick Bland inside and Jordan Lewis is now 601 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 3: odd man out? So I'm keeping a close close eye 602 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 3: on Kaylen Carson because if he he had that kind 603 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,120 Speaker 3: of ability, He's got that kind of ability. I think 604 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 3: there were so many corners in this draft and he 605 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 3: got lost in a pretty deep group and he's just 606 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 3: what like, his traits are just what Mike Zimber likes, 607 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,239 Speaker 3: and they had him playing the right corner in Uh, 608 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 3: this just kind of starting out. We'll see where they 609 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 3: if they move him around. But if he's good enough 610 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 3: on the outside and he played as what we known 611 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 3: as a field corner, which covers you know, the field 612 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 3: corner takes a lot of a lot of space. So 613 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 3: I just wonder, if he's good enough, does it make 614 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 3: them feel like he could start in the nickel on 615 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 3: the outside and then they move land. That's that's what 616 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 3: I'm gonna. I'm gonna I'm gonna kind of monitor that 617 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 3: as we go along. 618 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 7: I think my closest luck and it's it's difficult to 619 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 7: say because each of these rookies are up against competitions 620 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 7: like Kayln Carter, Kayln Carson, he's up against Jordan Lewis 621 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 7: in and the Deron Blands of the world. But in 622 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 7: Cooper Beebe, he's up against brock Hoffman and t J. 623 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 7: Basz and Tyler Geydon. When you look at who he's 624 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 7: up against, he has the best opportunity to be the 625 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 7: most likely starter for Week one of this entire rookie class. 626 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 7: It's his athleticism, it's his physical stature and build, and 627 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,360 Speaker 7: it's also the fact that he's your first round pick, 628 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 7: and then who is he challenging because now with him 629 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 7: and the building, presumably Tyler Smith is going to stay 630 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 7: at leftguard, So that means he's going up against Chumaydoga. 631 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 7: I think he can beat out to Manydoga. This summer, 632 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 7: He's going against Matt Well let's go. Well, let's go. 633 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 7: Has to prove he can remain healthy. They're moving Josh 634 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 7: Bauld inside. So when you look at the competition versus Guyton, 635 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,959 Speaker 7: and you look at Guidon's ceiling, even going into week one, 636 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 7: year one, I think Guian is the most likely to 637 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 7: be a lock. Not to say that he definitely is, 638 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 7: but he has the best shot. 639 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 3: You want to you want a dark horse, you want 640 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 3: a real I know you're saying locks, you want a 641 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 3: dark horse on this one. Justin Rogers starting over, Mazzie 642 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,479 Speaker 3: Smith one technique, I'd be a story in a lot 643 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 3: of different ways. Yeah, you know, And talking to people 644 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 3: about Mazzi, They're going to do the best he can 645 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 3: to get him ready. They want him to be in 646 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 3: the weight room, they want him to put on as 647 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,479 Speaker 3: much good weight as he can. They want to get 648 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 3: his strength back. You know, right now, I believe is 649 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 3: at three zero five, you know they're they're gonna they're 650 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 3: rehabbing the hell out of him, trying to get him ready. 651 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 3: But if you wanted a dark horse, maybe and it's 652 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 3: I know you asked the question for a. 653 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 2: While, that's fine, that's good. 654 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 3: But somebody that, like Justin Rogers, shows enough that he's 655 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 3: the starting one technique against the Cleveland Browns an opening day, ye, 656 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 3: that would be something I would keep an eye on. 657 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 9: That's exactly the guy that I was gonna mention. 658 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 8: And it's odd because obviously being picked in the seventh round, 659 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 8: typically you're not gonna pick that over who was your 660 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 8: first round pick last year. 661 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 9: So it's difficult. But at the same time, this guy 662 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 9: does have the size. He has the size, he has. 663 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 8: The weight, and he can be a guy that you 664 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 8: plug in there and just settles that like move me, 665 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 8: try to move me. And not only that, but he's 666 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 8: also he's shown to be really good at helping blocking 667 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 8: the run game run defense, and that's something that obviously 668 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 8: the Cowboys have struggled with. So he's not necessarily someone 669 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 8: that I feel confident, you know, with confidence to say, oh, 670 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 8: he'll be a starter over Mossie. But definitely someone to 671 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 8: keep an eye on. 672 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, I keep thinking back to another Auburn defensive tackle 673 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 6: that they brought at late round turned into a player 674 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 6: and Jay Ratt left, and I'm like, if. 675 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 2: Only they can, if only they can get another that was? 676 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 3: That was that your draft two thousand and five, It 677 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 3: was the last one. That was that draft with with 678 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 3: with where. 679 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 2: And in my opinion of the best drafting Cowboys history. 680 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 10: That's it was. 681 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 3: It was a good one. That was a good draft. 682 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 3: And then you look at Chris Canty in that draft 683 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 3: as well, So there was quite a few. 684 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 2: Kevin Burnett in that draft. Second round. 685 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 6: That it was, it was where it was spears it was. 686 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 6: I think I think Kevin Burnett was the second round kick. 687 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 6: I don't remember whose third round Canty was fourth, right 688 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 6: and he. 689 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: Was fourth, Yeah, but they had it was it was. 690 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 3: It was a good Aran Barber was in that draft. 691 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 2: He was the fifth pick in that draft, right, fifth 692 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 2: round pick. 693 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a test to me, but I remember, 694 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 3: that's a good draft. The thing about the thing, I 695 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 3: think why Justin Rodgers has the chances because right now 696 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,479 Speaker 3: there's so much unknown about Mozzie Smith. Yeah, I think 697 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 3: that's that to me, is you know if you said, 698 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 3: well you know what's what's what's the thing, you probably 699 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 3: know the least is gonna I don't know what's gonna 700 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 3: happen with Mozzie Smith. I don't. And I'm saying that 701 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 3: in I'm not saying in a negative way. I'm just 702 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 3: don't know right now. 703 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 6: With that, all right, we're gonna take our final break, 704 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 6: we'll come back.

The guy at the Chargers. 820 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 6: Boxing, Well, whenever we play the Chargers again, we may 821 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 6: have something fun for them. 822 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 2: We'll see how it goes. 823 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 3: You've had enough of the Chargers, is that what you're saying? 824 00:36:58,320 --> 00:36:58,400 Speaker 12: Now? 825 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,800 Speaker 3: I respect what they do, I really with respect. The 826 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 3: guy was here, you'd fist fight with him, right, I. 827 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 2: Don't fight anymore. That's my younger days. I've leave I've 828 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 2: left that behind. 829 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 10: Last year anyway. 830 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 6: So yeah, yeah, you don't have to say anything you said, right, right, 831 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,800 Speaker 6: All right, let's go. So let's talk about the position. 832 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 6: Noalysis is where we do We're gonna do something. We're 833 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 6: gonna do something called the swat analysis, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats. 834 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:26,760 Speaker 2: I'll explain. 835 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 6: I'll explain each one as we go through. Let's start though, 836 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 6: with strenks. We're gonna start at the quarterback position. Tell me, 837 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 6: I want each of you to tell me what you 838 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 6: think the biggest strength of this quarterback group is. 839 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 2: Let's start with you, Patrick. 840 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 15: I Q. 841 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 10: And ability to put up points. 842 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 7: If we're talking about Dak Prescott, yes, he has his 843 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 7: faults and we but we're talking about strengths right now. 844 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 7: So he has full command of his NFL offense. Full 845 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 7: command of the Cowboys offense. Didn't take him long and 846 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 7: crazy when you think about it, because how many coordinators 847 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 7: is this for him now as far as play callers 848 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 7: goes right, So, yeah, and he just continues mostly to 849 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 7: perform at a high level in the regular season at 850 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 7: least still got to get over that postseason Hume. So 851 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,479 Speaker 7: for me, yeah, and then when you look at Cooper Rush, 852 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 7: Cooper Rush is who I call you, cool hand Luke. 853 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:19,320 Speaker 10: He can come in. 854 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 7: He's not going to win you the game, but he's 855 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 7: not going to lose you the game either, right, question Mark, 856 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 7: Still on tree Lance, the potential is certainly there as 857 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 7: a former third overall pick. Strength being that he has 858 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 7: the ability to move the ball, he can move his 859 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:38,360 Speaker 7: legs challenge opposing defenses in that way. But still a 860 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 7: lot to be determined on trade lance. So I can't 861 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 7: really put a lot on Tree Lance in the strength category, 862 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 7: but I can on Cooper. 863 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 3: In deck depth. That would be what I would say, 864 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 3: Ye spirits and depth. 865 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 9: I would say. 866 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 8: I mean, as far as Dyke, I think he is 867 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 8: at his prime. He's not too young where he's still 868 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,760 Speaker 8: having to learn a whole lot, but he's not old 869 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 8: enough where he has a bunch of like little things 870 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 8: are nagging his body health wise, knock on everything. Yes, 871 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,399 Speaker 8: but yes he's healthy and I think he is right 872 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 8: at the prime of his career. He had his best 873 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 8: year last year, and I think this is I'm not 874 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 8: gonna say this is nothing, this. 875 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 10: Is it is what. 876 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 8: Yeah, he's where he is at. I'm gonna shut my 877 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 8: mouth with some of the things. But as far as 878 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 8: Trey Lions, he the youth, I mean, he's a young 879 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 8: guy that there's still a lot of unknowns because we 880 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 8: just haven't seen it use yet, but it does give 881 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 8: you hope. As far as the development of what you 882 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 8: can possibly do with him as well. 883 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 2: Biggest weakness of this group. 884 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:42,720 Speaker 3: Lack of playoff success. 885 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 10: I was going to say winning the playoffs. 886 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 3: Can't say you can't say big game success because they've 887 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 3: won some big games, but they I think lack of 888 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 3: playoffs success is what hangs over the scroup's head. 889 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 7: Yeah, same winning the playoffs. And we talked about this, 890 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 7: We said this before they lost to the Green Bay Packers. 891 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,320 Speaker 7: We say, lose this game, then all of next season 892 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,240 Speaker 7: is going to have this huge asterisk as we're enjoying 893 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 7: the wins that they have. Let's say they win against 894 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 7: the Cleveland Browns. We'll sit here and we'll enjoy that, 895 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 7: and we'll talk about that playfully with a bunch of optimism, 896 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 7: and then we'll have to close out that show by 897 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 7: saying not do it in January. So, now, Dak Prescott 898 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 7: didn't necessarily lose you the game against the Packers. I 899 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 7: think the defense mostly lost you the game against the Packers, 900 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 7: to be fair, But Dak was slow getting going and 901 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 7: he would have had to save his defense sooner than 902 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 7: he was able to try to do so. 903 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 10: So win in the playoffs. That's what everybody wants. It's 904 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 10: got to happen. 905 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 9: Yeah, there's no other answer than that. 906 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 8: I mean, we've seen a lot of the things that 907 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 8: we've asked of Dak throughout his career, whether that was 908 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:44,319 Speaker 8: throwing more downfield, those long passes, those long shots he's 909 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 8: done in red zone, done it. He's being a mobile quarterback. 910 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 8: He's shown to do that before. So he's improved a 911 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 8: lot of different areas, reducing the turnover, turnovers and throwing 912 00:40:55,760 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 8: those interceptions. But the main thing, yeah, playoffs game, all right. 913 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 6: So the next one is opportunity, And I'll explain what 914 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 6: I mean by that. What I want to know is 915 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 6: what is an unknown right now, a question mark right 916 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 6: now that could become a big asset for this this group. 917 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,799 Speaker 3: Getting him signed. If you just want to talk about 918 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 3: the quarterback, Yeah, I mean getting him signed, that's your 919 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 3: asset right there. If they find a way to get 920 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 3: it done, then you know that that buys you a 921 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 3: couple more years hopefully you know, hopefully of MVP type 922 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 3: level quarterbacking. But that's an unknown right now. Are you're 923 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 3: gonna be able to get that done? The asset could 924 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 3: be getting it done. The unknown is we don't know 925 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 3: if it's gonna get done. 926 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 10: I say, and I agree with Brian. 927 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 7: The asset is getting it done because if you don't 928 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 7: get it done, guess what, you also don't have Trey 929 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 7: Lance under contract for a long period of time either. 930 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 7: And you want Trey Lance to compete directly with Cooper 931 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,799 Speaker 7: Rush for QB too. He got all these question marks, 932 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,839 Speaker 7: but all of this is predicated upon Dak Prescott being 933 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 7: here for the future. And if you don't get Dak 934 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:58,240 Speaker 7: Prescott signed and for whatever reason things they part ways 935 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 7: next year, is Trey Lance ready because you're only going 936 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,800 Speaker 7: to be basing that that assessment next year off of 937 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:09,359 Speaker 7: this coming preseason and probably nothing more. That's that's that's 938 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 7: a lot soet QB one signed. 939 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:16,320 Speaker 8: Yeah, And and I mean, there's that's gonna affect so 940 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,320 Speaker 8: many other things because what does that contract look like, 941 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 8: what does the money look like? Is that going to 942 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,840 Speaker 8: hold you hostage and having the ability or capability of 943 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 8: signing other players that can be weapons and actually help 944 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,479 Speaker 8: you know, it's it's a lot of unknown and even 945 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 8: if let's say you don't get him signed and now 946 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,439 Speaker 8: you're going through a whole restructure type of white bout 947 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 8: like a quarterback. 948 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 3: Home it could affect you. It could affect you anyway, 949 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 3: if in the way you're because he's gonna cost forty 950 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 3: eight million dollars if you don't sign him on the 951 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 3: on the on the dead side. 952 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 7: For those the younger Cowboys fans who have not experienced 953 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 7: QB purgatory with this team, trust me when I tell 954 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 7: you you don't want any parts of that. 955 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 10: You just don't want to be in there. 956 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 2: Done that ain't fun. 957 00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 3: Looking at me, I don't blame you. You were with me, 958 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 3: you remember it. 959 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 2: It's not fun, man, it is it is. 960 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 3: There's nothing there fun. If I would give anything to 961 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 3: have the way that teams get rid of their quarterbacks today, 962 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 3: twenty five years ago, if you would have let me 963 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 3: have opportunities to have Aaron Rodgers and get people like that, 964 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 3: or trade for or sign Kirk Cousins or something like that, 965 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 3: I might be still working in scouting. You know, that's 966 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 3: how hard it was twenty five years ago to find it, 967 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 3: because if you had one, you weren't letting them go. 968 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 3: That's exactly right, That's exactly right. A franchise got changed 969 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 3: in nineteen ninety nine, and the sixth round drafting a 970 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 3: quarterback New England Patriots. That's how lucky you have to 971 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 3: be sometimes, Yeah, and you might do that way here 972 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 3: with it. It might be that lucky with the guy 973 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 3: you drafted here several years ago. 974 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 6: Let's talk about threats. What is the biggest obstacle to 975 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:49,279 Speaker 6: the success of this group. 976 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 3: Health. I'm gonna say health with the starting quarterback, that's 977 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 3: the thing. You just you know, he's been he made 978 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 3: it through last year. Fine, but we've dealt with some times. 979 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 3: Had on training camp we were all dealing with the 980 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 3: what's the shoulder thing he's dealing with. Let's you know, 981 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 3: there's the calf that you know, remember when his calf 982 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:11,800 Speaker 3: got hurt. He was on such a run in the 983 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,040 Speaker 3: New England game. You win that game in ot and 984 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:16,960 Speaker 3: then after that it wasn't the same quarterback. I think 985 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,399 Speaker 3: the only thing that slows this group down is health 986 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 3: if if in fact, that's that's if you want to 987 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 3: call it that. 988 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 10: The calendar. 989 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 7: I think the calendar is the biggest opposition for the 990 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 7: Cowboys quarterback and Dak Prescott obviously he's the lead horse, 991 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 7: so that's what we're talking about. But signing him, no, 992 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 7: not necessarily just that that also as well, but his 993 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 7: play during the regular season, more often than not, is phenomenal. 994 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 7: Over the course of his career, He's had his down moments, obviously, 995 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,840 Speaker 7: but for the most part, he's He's elite. In the 996 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 7: regular season calendar flips to January. Yeah, what happens, So 997 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 7: for me, it's it. I don't know what that intangible is. 998 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 7: And again he Dak Prescott did not lose the game 999 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 7: for the Cowboys against the Packers. The defense did. You 1000 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 7: just need Dak Prescott to save the day, and he 1001 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 7: was unable to do that. But I think that this 1002 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 7: quarterback group needs to figure out how to hit that 1003 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 7: switch in January, or to at least keep that momentum 1004 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 7: going from an excellent regular season and stop running into 1005 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 7: that wall in January. There's like this wall waiting for 1006 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 7: them in January, and until they break through, we're going 1007 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 7: to keep having these these conversations. 1008 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 8: I would say the word comedee, that word when I 1009 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 8: hear when I hear it, it gives me bad flashbacks. 1010 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 3: And this is not you saying the personnel around him 1011 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 3: and this is. 1012 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 8: Not specifical good to quarterback, but talking about the running game, 1013 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,880 Speaker 8: the running back. When I heard that word committee and 1014 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 8: we know how important. Again we get focused on quarterback, 1015 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 8: but it does affect you have to be able to 1016 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:44,600 Speaker 8: establish the run. 1017 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 9: How are you going to do that? 1018 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 8: You have to help your quarterback establishing the running not 1019 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 8: just relighting the passing game. So as soon as I 1020 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 8: heard the word committee, I'm like, will say what say what. 1021 00:45:56,120 --> 00:46:01,360 Speaker 3: Committee? Mari Coop at first pick ome. 1022 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 10: Yep, yep. 1023 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:03,360 Speaker 9: So something to keep an eye on. 1024 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 6: I don't like here, you know, And I'll take that 1025 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 6: even one step further. It's not just the running back 1026 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 6: to me, ste inexperience on the offensive line combined with 1027 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 6: this running back by committee not having a really established, 1028 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,040 Speaker 6: top notch, every down type running back. You combine those 1029 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:21,400 Speaker 6: two things, it's probably more on the shoulders of the 1030 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 6: quarterback than it's. 1031 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,760 Speaker 2: Ever been in Dak Prescott's time here with the Cowboys. 1032 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 6: Like he's always he since the moment he's got here, 1033 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,840 Speaker 6: he's always had a lead back that he could rely on. 1034 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 6: He's for the most part, had a really good offensive line. 1035 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 6: This is going to be the first year where he 1036 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 6: could have a good offensive line. Maybe he couldn't, Like, 1037 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 6: we don't know, because there's some new parts to that. 1038 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,320 Speaker 6: The running back back committee could work. Maybe it doesn't. 1039 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,239 Speaker 6: I think there are more question marks right now with 1040 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 6: the surrounding cast of Dak Prescott Prescott than ever before 1041 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 6: in his career, and that's why it's gonna be more 1042 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,880 Speaker 6: on his shoulders to see how much success this team get. 1043 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 3: I don't think they'll get out of training camp without 1044 00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 3: an answer at running back. You mean another somebody that's 1045 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,400 Speaker 3: not on the rock. No, No, they're going to know. 1046 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,920 Speaker 3: They're not gonna let Committee go into week full gotcha. 1047 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 3: They're going to say, you know what, we our offensive 1048 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 3: lines approved, we're not getting to and through the line. 1049 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 3: We don't have the explosive players we need to do better. 1050 00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 3: We're gonna have to ship a fifth round pick somewhere 1051 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 3: to get a guy. Yeah, you know, whether it's surplus 1052 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 3: at one of the other teams. I don't see them 1053 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:25,879 Speaker 3: going into week one being Committee running back. I think 1054 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 3: they're going to find a way to establish either they're 1055 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:31,319 Speaker 3: gonna either it's gonna work, they're gonna find their guys here, 1056 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 3: or they're gonna go get somebody. But I don't think 1057 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,279 Speaker 3: it's gonna get the Week four, week five like we 1058 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 3: saw for a Marii Cooper. All Right, That is a wrap. 1059 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 6: We'll be back next week and we'll go through our 1060 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 6: position series again. We'll move on to the tight ends, 1061 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:45,640 Speaker 6: maybe get to running backs. We might even get the receivers. 1062 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 6: We'll see until then for her, Patrick Walker, Brian Brodis, 1063 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:50,680 Speaker 6: Ambergras SI.
