<v Speaker 6>episode number seven. Welcome to the Late's edition of The Break,

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:51.159
<v Speaker 6>presented by LG. We are live from SWBC Mortgage Studios

0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:52.920
<v Speaker 6>at the Star, and today we got a lot of

0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:55.160
<v Speaker 6>things we're going to try to get into. Talk a

0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:57.520
<v Speaker 6>little bit about the schedule release which is coming up

0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:00.560
<v Speaker 6>later tonight. There is one game that has already been released,

0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:03.240
<v Speaker 6>and we'll have a little bit of talk on. We'll

0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:05.360
<v Speaker 6>talk some about the rookie minning camp and some of

0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:07.639
<v Speaker 6>the things you guys saw last weekend when the rookie

0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:09.800
<v Speaker 6>showed up for the first time here at the Star,

0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:12.240
<v Speaker 6>and then we'll start our position analysis.

0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:14.920
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna do a little bit. I'm gonna combine a.

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 6>Little bit of my business school background and football and

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:21.560
<v Speaker 6>we're gonna do what's called a swat analysis on every

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:24.039
<v Speaker 6>position on the team. We're gonna start today with the quarterbacks,

0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:27.400
<v Speaker 6>maybe get to the tight ends as well. We'll see

0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 6>what time looks like as we go throughout the show,

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:31.960
<v Speaker 6>but I'll explain that when we get to that segment.

0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:34.639
<v Speaker 6>Let's start first with schedule release. It comes up tonight.

0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:38.600
<v Speaker 6>We have some fun stuff planned for you fans tonight

0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:41.880
<v Speaker 6>that will when we release the Cowboys schedule. But there

0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:43.840
<v Speaker 6>always has been one game that has been released by

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:48.880
<v Speaker 6>the NFL. Week one Cowboys will travel to Cleveland, and

0:01:49.200 --> 0:01:51.760
<v Speaker 6>I think, well, let me first just say I would

0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 6>love for all you guys to tell me what your

0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:55.160
<v Speaker 6>thoughts are on the game, but I'm just gonna start

0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:58.560
<v Speaker 6>it with two words, Miles Garrett, and I'll toss it

0:01:58.560 --> 0:01:59.400
<v Speaker 6>out there and let y'all go.

0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:05.080
<v Speaker 7>I think three words baptism by fire for Tyler Goyton.

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:08.079
<v Speaker 7>And of course this is as we have the conversation,

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.840
<v Speaker 7>Tyler Goton still has to earn the starting role at

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:12.440
<v Speaker 7>left tackles, so he's going to have to go through

0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 7>that crash course this summer that we talked about, and

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:16.720
<v Speaker 7>that also includes what he's doing across the street with

0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:18.680
<v Speaker 7>our friend Duke mini Weather. So he's putting in the work.

0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 7>He started fairly early. We're in the airbnb only two

0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.320
<v Speaker 7>days after the draft. After he got the draft call.

0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:25.839
<v Speaker 7>He wanted to get to work and so he did.

0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:30.040
<v Speaker 7>But there's no other way to paint it other than

0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:32.600
<v Speaker 7>Miles Garrett is going to put him through the ringer,

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:34.400
<v Speaker 7>and he better be ready because he's going to have

0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:36.800
<v Speaker 7>to learn real fast what it feels like to go

0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:40.280
<v Speaker 7>against one of the best pass rushers in the NFL.

0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:43.239
<v Speaker 7>Five time All Pro, five time Pro Bowler, raining the

0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:45.480
<v Speaker 7>NFL Defensive Player of the Year. We're about to find

0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:48.600
<v Speaker 7>out exactly what Tyler Goyton can do at the NFL level.

0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:54.320
<v Speaker 3>Any thoughts on that one, ag Well, I mean it

0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:54.920
<v Speaker 3>was interesting.

0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:59.720
<v Speaker 8>So yesterday the coordinators and the coaches got a time

0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:04.079
<v Speaker 8>to speak to the media, and it was interesting more

0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:08.240
<v Speaker 8>so than just gutting the the the battles and the

0:03:08.320 --> 0:03:11.839
<v Speaker 8>shuffling around the O line and the guys that are

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:16.359
<v Speaker 8>planning to try out kind of at center. And we thought,

0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:22.760
<v Speaker 8>you know, we've talked about Tyler. Uh no, no, no,

0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:25.160
<v Speaker 8>TJ Bass is what I was saying. TJ Basses and

0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:29.040
<v Speaker 8>there's so many names with teams and but it's it's

0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 8>interesting because it's gonna be a really good competition just

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:34.360
<v Speaker 8>to see more so than just Tyler guy and what

0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 8>he's doing there. Yes, that's definitely gonna be a big challenge.

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:40.680
<v Speaker 8>But we know that the O line works as a

0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 8>whole and it's a whole effort, team effort there.

0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:45.760
<v Speaker 9>But BB TJ.

0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:48.760
<v Speaker 8>Bass kind of competing at the center position and seeing

0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:52.760
<v Speaker 8>what that's gonna look like, Uh, it's gonna it's gonna

0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:55.520
<v Speaker 8>be a very big challenge. And that's one of the

0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:58.000
<v Speaker 8>things I've been most concerned of because when you see

0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:02.800
<v Speaker 8>these guys, these young players, they have the size, they

0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:05.080
<v Speaker 8>look good like size wide do you have a lot

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:09.440
<v Speaker 8>of guys that looked the part, But now are they

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:13.400
<v Speaker 8>gonna be ready to take on that big challenge right

0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:14.040
<v Speaker 8>off the bat?

0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:15.920
<v Speaker 9>And and that's gonna be tough.

0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:19.600
<v Speaker 8>And that's my biggest concern is the lack of experience

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:23.520
<v Speaker 8>and the mind of growth. You know, rookies do need

0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:26.120
<v Speaker 8>some time to develop and kind of go in there.

0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:30.080
<v Speaker 8>But like you said, how baptism by fire. I never

0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:32.719
<v Speaker 8>heard that word before or that's saying, but it's definitely

0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:34.600
<v Speaker 8>gonna be some type of baptism.

0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:39.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, this is a it's never easy. I mean, this

0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:42.560
<v Speaker 3>whole schedule's full of guys for a rookie guy's you know,

0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:45.960
<v Speaker 3>we will see how they adapt. Some of them adapt

0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.680
<v Speaker 3>very well. Someone played a very high level. Uh. You know,

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:52.400
<v Speaker 3>early season games you're kind of, you know a little

0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:56.920
<v Speaker 3>bit at the mercy of your conditioning, you know. And

0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 3>we've seen games where you feel like guys are going

0:04:59.920 --> 0:05:01.960
<v Speaker 3>to get you know, especially pass rushers, they're going to

0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.120
<v Speaker 3>get started, and you know that they got to get

0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:06.440
<v Speaker 3>a little rhythm. And you know, a guy like you know,

0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:09.000
<v Speaker 3>Miles Garrett, he ain't gonna play a lot of preseason games,

0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:11.599
<v Speaker 3>you know, and what's his conditioning going to be like

0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:14.120
<v Speaker 3>opening day? Uh? You know, what is the condition going

0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:16.200
<v Speaker 3>to be like for a lot of these players. So

0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:18.760
<v Speaker 3>when you absolutely if this was say a week six,

0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:24.719
<v Speaker 3>week seven matchup, I would feel a little bit more worried.

0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:28.000
<v Speaker 3>But early season, you don't know. I mean there's things

0:05:28.040 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 3>about the Browns. There's things scheme wise they can do

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.760
<v Speaker 3>to work around Miles Garrett. There are things to do.

0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:36.880
<v Speaker 3>They can chip, they can space him, they could put

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:39.800
<v Speaker 3>you know, they can make him have to play wider. Uh,

0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:42.120
<v Speaker 3>you know with all that we were talking about, so

0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:45.920
<v Speaker 3>to me, he he doesn't know a lot about Tyler Geyiton,

0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:48.440
<v Speaker 3>you know, I mean how much does he know about

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:51.920
<v Speaker 3>his pass rush of blocking ability? You know, there are

0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:54.279
<v Speaker 3>things that got you know, he might be surprised with

0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:57.680
<v Speaker 3>Giton's length. You know, he might be surprised with Guidon's height,

0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.760
<v Speaker 3>and you know, and his athletic ability that you know,

0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 3>if you're going to play against Males Garrett, you better

0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:05.719
<v Speaker 3>be ready to be a really good foot athlete because

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:07.960
<v Speaker 3>he's going to carry you. Why he's going to carry

0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:10.000
<v Speaker 3>you inside, He's going to carry you a lot of

0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:13.760
<v Speaker 3>places his kids. Yeah, it will be it'll be an

0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.080
<v Speaker 3>eye opener for him. But there's ways. This is what

0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:20.200
<v Speaker 3>these coaching staffs do. They spend all off season now

0:06:20.600 --> 0:06:22.800
<v Speaker 3>now that they know the Cleveland Browns are Week one.

0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:26.159
<v Speaker 3>Now you figure out ways to just look at every

0:06:26.480 --> 0:06:29.800
<v Speaker 3>single game and how people play it against Miles Garrett

0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:33.680
<v Speaker 3>and figure out what's the best way to neutralize him.

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:36.440
<v Speaker 3>You're not going to stop him every single time, but

0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:41.919
<v Speaker 3>his unknown about about Guiden and Guidan's unknown about him

0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:44.800
<v Speaker 3>might play due an advantage for the Cowboys and then

0:06:44.880 --> 0:06:48.240
<v Speaker 3>also the conditioning of week one. We've seen players deal

0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:51.520
<v Speaker 3>with cramps, not they don't have their win, not ready

0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:54.000
<v Speaker 3>in real good football shape at that point in time.

0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:56.640
<v Speaker 3>This might be an advantage playing a guy in Week one. Y.

0:06:56.760 --> 0:07:01.040
<v Speaker 9>So how would you guys handle pre season? I mean,

0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:05.200
<v Speaker 9>do you have your play.

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.880
<v Speaker 8>But you have your your center and left and left

0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:11.360
<v Speaker 8>tackle play with the backups at the other positions, you

0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:12.240
<v Speaker 8>just play.

0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:14.960
<v Speaker 6>They play a lot in I think in the preseason

0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:18.200
<v Speaker 6>games when the other starters come out, they stay in it.

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.840
<v Speaker 8>But I'm talking about the other veterans, like the starters

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:25.000
<v Speaker 8>or Si Martin your purposes.

0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 9>Just getting a line. I'm just asking.

0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 8>I know we're against like having the starters out there

0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:35.800
<v Speaker 8>during the preseason, but based on the you know, getting

0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:36.920
<v Speaker 8>everybody on, you're.

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:38.480
<v Speaker 7>Right as far as because we talked about about it

0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:41.040
<v Speaker 7>last year when the Cowboys had injuries, and we talked

0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:44.200
<v Speaker 7>about how many games does offensive line need to play

0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.080
<v Speaker 7>together to have that chemistry? And I think it comes

0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:49.120
<v Speaker 7>up to round four in my head. But you have

0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:51.520
<v Speaker 7>to also weigh it against who we're talking about. So

0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:54.040
<v Speaker 7>for example, we're talking about Zach Martin. Zach Martin number

0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:56.840
<v Speaker 7>one doesn't need the preseason reps, and it's risk versus

0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:59.800
<v Speaker 7>reward in that the risk that you have with him

0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:04.120
<v Speaker 7>being out there possible injury versus the chemistry. Zach can

0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:06.720
<v Speaker 7>get the chemistry quickly from week one, two, three, as

0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:10.080
<v Speaker 7>long as it's a cohesive unit to start the season.

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:12.880
<v Speaker 7>So I'm not worried about Zach Martin getting the cohesiveness

0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:15.640
<v Speaker 7>or Terrence Steele for example. But with the rookies, I

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:16.960
<v Speaker 7>see what you're saying there, because it.

0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:18.640
<v Speaker 9>Was a big talk class.

0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:21.560
<v Speaker 6>But you know, I will say this, if it were

0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 6>me making the decision, I might consider putting four of

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:26.600
<v Speaker 6>those five guys out there and playing them a little

0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:27.600
<v Speaker 6>bit more in the preseason.

0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:28.040
<v Speaker 3>Zach.

0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:30.640
<v Speaker 6>I don't need Zach to touch the field everyseason. The

0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:33.360
<v Speaker 6>other four, though, give me Bass out there with him,

0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:35.320
<v Speaker 6>and I'll put that five out there, and I'll let

0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:37.760
<v Speaker 6>him run through the first quarter, maybe the first quarter

0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:39.960
<v Speaker 6>and a half, just to give give me a little

0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:41.640
<v Speaker 6>bit of time to see them together and let them

0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:44.240
<v Speaker 6>work together. Because I do think, especially on the left

0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:47.120
<v Speaker 6>side of the line, Tyler is important to that because

0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:48.640
<v Speaker 6>he's got a guy on the right and a left

0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:50.680
<v Speaker 6>on the left that are new and so them having

0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:52.840
<v Speaker 6>some time together I think might be very important. So

0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:54.880
<v Speaker 6>I might consider doing a little bit more with my

0:08:54.920 --> 0:08:58.000
<v Speaker 6>younger guys like Tyler Smith, and maybe even with Steele.

0:08:58.240 --> 0:08:59.160
<v Speaker 2>I just wouldn't do it with Zack.

0:08:59.200 --> 0:09:01.160
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and I'm fun doing with Tyler Smith because of

0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 7>the age factor.

0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:04.840
<v Speaker 3>They need to play halves. I mean, the young guys

0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:07.160
<v Speaker 3>need to think about playing a half of a game. Yeah,

0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:09.400
<v Speaker 3>they definitely. Yeah, and especially if we're trying to get

0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:12.439
<v Speaker 3>an evaluation of Trey Lance. How much is Dak gonna

0:09:12.440 --> 0:09:14.760
<v Speaker 3>play in these games? You know? And we're trying to

0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:16.880
<v Speaker 3>figure out running back by committee. Yeah, we know the

0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 3>number fifteen can run the ball. We've seen, you know,

0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:22.880
<v Speaker 3>Rico Daudell run the ball. But you know who else?

0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:24.960
<v Speaker 3>You know who else you know who is going to be?

0:09:25.200 --> 0:09:26.880
<v Speaker 3>I think you're only gonna carry. You need to get

0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:29.360
<v Speaker 3>duz Von going. You need to figure out what douce

0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:32.160
<v Speaker 3>Vawn is or it's going to be we're gonna get

0:09:32.200 --> 0:09:34.000
<v Speaker 3>down to the final cut and we're gonna like, we're

0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:36.200
<v Speaker 3>gonna have Ducevawn on the bubble and we're all gonna

0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:37.839
<v Speaker 3>look at each other and go, we really didn't know

0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:40.640
<v Speaker 3>what Ducevon is, you know, they've got to figure out.

0:09:40.640 --> 0:09:43.080
<v Speaker 3>There's a lot of things and by if you're playing

0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:48.160
<v Speaker 3>these young linemen Bbe Smith, you know, Guidon. If you're

0:09:48.160 --> 0:09:51.400
<v Speaker 3>playing these young guys, then you get an opportunity not

0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:54.600
<v Speaker 3>only to evaluate them, but you're evaluating your quarterback. You're

0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:56.760
<v Speaker 3>how about the receivers out there too, You're trying to

0:09:56.800 --> 0:09:59.319
<v Speaker 3>find a third guy right now. So there's a lot

0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 3>of things going.

0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:02.520
<v Speaker 7>And kind of dove tailing off of that looking at

0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:05.720
<v Speaker 7>the Browns matchup, Excited to see what Guyton does in

0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.520
<v Speaker 7>this baptism by fire against Miles Garrett. But we talk

0:10:08.559 --> 0:10:12.000
<v Speaker 7>about how the Cowboys offensive line needs to improve run blocking. Well,

0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:14.160
<v Speaker 7>now we're going to look at Tyler Smith, Cooper BB,

0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:17.679
<v Speaker 7>and of course Zach Martin going up against Dalvin Tomlinson

0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:19.840
<v Speaker 7>for example, right going up against Shelby Harris. So they're

0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:21.719
<v Speaker 7>going to have their hands full as well. You're talking

0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:24.560
<v Speaker 7>about young guys trying to figure it out. Well, Cooper BB,

0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:27.480
<v Speaker 7>he plays with this particular bullying demeanor. He wants to

0:10:27.520 --> 0:10:29.520
<v Speaker 7>dirt guys. Well, you're going to get some veterans that

0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:32.440
<v Speaker 7>don't often get dirty, right, So we want to see

0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:34.520
<v Speaker 7>what the run game can be. But half of that

0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:38.000
<v Speaker 7>equation is going to be how this front three performs

0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:40.719
<v Speaker 7>against their defensive tackles, and they have some good ones

0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:43.160
<v Speaker 7>in Cleveland. The good news is for the Cowboys is

0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:46.640
<v Speaker 7>that the defensive coordinator that's here now, Mike Zimber, he

0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:50.079
<v Speaker 7>knows Tomlinson will and he knows Zadarius Thomas well, for example,

0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:52.360
<v Speaker 7>so he has some inside information that will helped this offense.

0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:54.920
<v Speaker 6>Well, don't lose sight of the fact that just like

0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.240
<v Speaker 6>the offense is going to have a challenge, the defense

0:10:57.240 --> 0:10:59.400
<v Speaker 6>will also have a challenge going up against the likes

0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:02.000
<v Speaker 6>of Deshaun and Nick Chubbs and of.

0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:03.400
<v Speaker 2>Course Mary Cooper.

0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:06.560
<v Speaker 6>That's the other storyline is it gets really interesting is

0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:08.920
<v Speaker 6>that you go there and you have to face Mary

0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:11.040
<v Speaker 6>Cooper and I'm sure he's he's already.

0:11:10.760 --> 0:11:12.040
<v Speaker 9>Something to playing at home.

0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:14.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure that.

0:11:14.400 --> 0:11:17.520
<v Speaker 7>Will be a game that, all things considered, if it

0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:19.920
<v Speaker 7>continues as it is or it's gave us a great

0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:22.400
<v Speaker 7>update on trevon dig yesterday said he's on schedule. He

0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:24.240
<v Speaker 7>didn't want to put timeline on it because that's for

0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:26.640
<v Speaker 7>Britt Brown and his staff, but it sounds as if

0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:29.120
<v Speaker 7>Trayvon is on track to be on the field week one.

0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:31.760
<v Speaker 7>But which version of Trayvon are we going to see

0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:33.960
<v Speaker 7>week one going against a guy like a Mary Cooper

0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:36.840
<v Speaker 7>or will they put bland on Cooper and let Trayvon

0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:38.559
<v Speaker 7>have a little bit of grace because he's coming back

0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 7>from town ac.

0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:41.520
<v Speaker 3>I hate to say, history is not shown that these

0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:44.760
<v Speaker 3>guys are coming back from injuries immediately jump in. Yeah,

0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:46.640
<v Speaker 3>you know, we've seen all of a sudden Week six,

0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:48.840
<v Speaker 3>Week seven, they start to look a little bit more

0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:51.640
<v Speaker 3>like the player before they got hurt. Those are the

0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:53.000
<v Speaker 3>things you always got to keep in mind.

0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:56.320
<v Speaker 10>I've been landed on Cooper and give Trayvon some grace there. Yeah.

0:11:56.400 --> 0:11:58.400
<v Speaker 6>To be honest with you, my guess is that they're

0:11:58.400 --> 0:12:00.319
<v Speaker 6>going to move Cooper around a little bit so you

0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:02.200
<v Speaker 6>may get him. Yeah, And I don't know that I'd

0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:04.520
<v Speaker 6>start moving guys just to stay with Cooper. I think

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:06.360
<v Speaker 6>you kind of match up and you see where you go.

0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:06.959
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 2>The good thing.

0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:09.520
<v Speaker 6>About it for for some of those guys, at least

0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:12.560
<v Speaker 6>they've practiced against Mary Cooper, right, they kind of they

0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:14.560
<v Speaker 6>have some experience with him, so they kind of know

0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:16.480
<v Speaker 6>what he likes to do. They have some tail signs

0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:18.360
<v Speaker 6>on him, and by the way it goes both ways,

0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:20.480
<v Speaker 6>he probably has some tail signs on them as well.

0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.959
<v Speaker 6>But it'll be interesting matchups. And I think this matchup

0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:25.160
<v Speaker 6>is a very interesting for the one for the Cowboys

0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:29.040
<v Speaker 6>against an AFC team to begin the season for all

0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:31.160
<v Speaker 6>of the reasons we just mentioned. It will be a fun,

0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:32.240
<v Speaker 6>fun matchup.

0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:34.720
<v Speaker 10>All right, We're gonna go ahead, and the quarterback mobile

0:12:34.800 --> 0:12:35.360
<v Speaker 10>quarterback too.

0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:37.679
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, And honestly, Deshaun Watson is probably one of the

0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:39.960
<v Speaker 6>biggest He's probably one of the biggest question marks in

0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:43.480
<v Speaker 6>the entire NFL from the standpoint of will he or

0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:47.079
<v Speaker 6>when he when will he resume his career in the

0:12:47.120 --> 0:12:50.000
<v Speaker 6>way that it was before he was out of football.

0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:53.080
<v Speaker 6>If Yeah, we don't know if, but if and when,

0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:55.240
<v Speaker 6>like if he gets back to that and then you're

0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:57.400
<v Speaker 6>combining with the running game with Chubb and with the

0:12:57.480 --> 0:13:00.280
<v Speaker 6>Marii Cooper and with Miles Garrett on the defense side

0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:02.160
<v Speaker 6>of the ball, they got some pieces, like, they got

0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:04.160
<v Speaker 6>some pieces to be a very very dangerous team.

0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:04.760
<v Speaker 3>So it'll be interesting.

0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:07.760
<v Speaker 7>This linebackers is going to get tested too, So thank goodness,

0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:10.600
<v Speaker 7>Eric Kendricks is in the building and we'll see overshown

0:13:10.640 --> 0:13:12.360
<v Speaker 7>he might need some grace. We talked about Trayvon Diggs

0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:14.040
<v Speaker 7>might need some grace. But you're going to get some

0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:16.120
<v Speaker 7>mobile quarterback. He's going to try to, you know, burn

0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:17.719
<v Speaker 7>those edges. Your linebacker is going to have to be

0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:20.520
<v Speaker 7>disciplined and have the ability to know when to go

0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:22.240
<v Speaker 7>chase and know when to drop back and no when

0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:22.920
<v Speaker 7>to change gears.

0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:24.480
<v Speaker 10>So linebacker is going to get tested on.

0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:27.120
<v Speaker 3>I forgot they traded for Jerry Judy too from Denver.

0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:32.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, yeah, the oh wow, yeah.

0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:33.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I forgot all about that. Yeah, well, David and Joku,

0:13:33.760 --> 0:13:36.920
<v Speaker 3>the tight ends a really athletic guys, Jerry Judy and

0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:38.720
<v Speaker 3>and then you know with Cooper, I mean they've got

0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:40.600
<v Speaker 3>they've got capable guys on that.

0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:41.480
<v Speaker 2>That's a good roster.

0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:43.679
<v Speaker 6>So that's gonna be a very very big test for

0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:46.040
<v Speaker 6>the Cowboys on the road to start Week one.

0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:46.280
<v Speaker 7>You know.

0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:49.199
<v Speaker 8>But like Mike McCarthy likes to say that, he likes

0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:51.600
<v Speaker 8>to find out early on what we got, you know,

0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:53.719
<v Speaker 8>So that's gonna be well, here we.

0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 3>Go there early on.

0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:58.600
<v Speaker 6>But by the way, that's the NFL, Like there are

0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.160
<v Speaker 6>as you're kind of mentioned there, Brian, there are probably

0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:03.400
<v Speaker 6>ten games on the schedule this year where you're like, oh,

0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:05.680
<v Speaker 6>that's going to be a very, very tough matchup. Like,

0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:07.120
<v Speaker 6>there are a lot of good teams in the NFL,

0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:09.720
<v Speaker 6>especially right now. When you're looking at the rosters, you're like, man,

0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:11.360
<v Speaker 6>they got a lot of weapons. We'll see how it

0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:12.400
<v Speaker 6>all plays out once you get there.

0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:14.079
<v Speaker 3>I know, I was terrified of a Week two game

0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:17.000
<v Speaker 3>against the Jets until I saw what happened to Week one.

0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, rights, it could change everything, Yeah, absolutely, But it's

0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:22.920
<v Speaker 5>also different going against because even last year, Yeah, the

0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:25.520
<v Speaker 5>Giants saw your a divisional rival for Week one, and

0:14:25.640 --> 0:14:27.320
<v Speaker 5>there's familiarity there, et cetera, et cetera.

0:14:27.480 --> 0:14:30.400
<v Speaker 7>But it's suffices to say, even if we were having

0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:33.080
<v Speaker 7>this conversation before Week one last year and then comparing

0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:35.440
<v Speaker 7>it against what we're saying with the Browns, this Browns

0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:38.600
<v Speaker 7>matchup is a light years more difficulty. So the Giants,

0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:41.640
<v Speaker 7>I mean, nobody expected to forty the old blowout at MetLife,

0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:44.080
<v Speaker 7>But it's those are two different teams.

0:14:44.280 --> 0:14:45.160
<v Speaker 2>Those are not the same team.

0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:46.040
<v Speaker 10>Those are not the same team.

0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:48.320
<v Speaker 7>So that that could be respectfully viewed as kind of

0:14:48.360 --> 0:14:49.600
<v Speaker 7>a ramp up getting into the season.

0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:51.480
<v Speaker 10>This is not that this is let's go.

0:14:51.640 --> 0:14:53.760
<v Speaker 6>All right, let's take our first break, let's come back,

0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:55.840
<v Speaker 6>Let's get some observations from the rookie mini camp.

0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:57.440
<v Speaker 2>We'll be back, Dallas, Cowboys dot Com Radio.

0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:01.120
<v Speaker 11>Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:04.080
<v Speaker 11>cheetah Savannah. Todd believed the big cat repellent he bought

0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:07.040
<v Speaker 11>online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to be

0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:09.720
<v Speaker 11>faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.120
<v Speaker 11>But the good news is Todd has AT and T

0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:14.840
<v Speaker 11>five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and he

0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:17.160
<v Speaker 11>learned the best thing to do is stop running and

0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:19.840
<v Speaker 11>toss her the backpack with the beef stew At and

0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:23.480

<v Speaker 6>and this segment is brought to you by blockchain dot Com.

0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:39.800
<v Speaker 6>Let's talk about the Rookie Mini Caamprookies showed up last

0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:41.480
<v Speaker 6>week for the first time here at the Star. I

0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:43.359
<v Speaker 6>want to go around the table each of you guys,

0:17:43.400 --> 0:17:45.639
<v Speaker 6>give me one observation. It can be from when you

0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:48.320
<v Speaker 6>first met guys to what you saw on the field,

0:17:48.560 --> 0:17:51.240
<v Speaker 6>to any locker room interviews. One observation that really stood

0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:53.480
<v Speaker 6>out to you about any player that is a rookie

0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:54.600
<v Speaker 6>that showed up last weekend.

0:17:54.720 --> 0:17:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Let's start with you, Brian.

0:17:56.640 --> 0:17:59.119
<v Speaker 3>You know, Mike Zimber told us that he was working

0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:03.720
<v Speaker 3>with Mozzie Smith on his stance, and I'm thinking, like stance.

0:18:04.040 --> 0:18:07.280
<v Speaker 3>You know, football players know about stances. They're honestly working

0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:09.760
<v Speaker 3>with guys on their stance. I was I was looking

0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:11.400
<v Speaker 3>down at the other end of the field and when

0:18:11.400 --> 0:18:13.680
<v Speaker 3>you when you look at the defensive tackles down there

0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:19.000
<v Speaker 3>with Justin Rodgers and Denzel Dason and Marshawn Neelan and

0:18:19.000 --> 0:18:23.000
<v Speaker 3>those guys, it's so funny how you draft somebody and

0:18:23.040 --> 0:18:27.080
<v Speaker 3>when you bring them in you have to completely turn

0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:30.320
<v Speaker 3>them around, you turn them into something. So it really

0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:33.320
<v Speaker 3>was the the observations for me, I'm like ohing, gosh,

0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:37.200
<v Speaker 3>they're they're they're working on steps, They're literally working on stance,

0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:40.600
<v Speaker 3>and so to me, it's the basics of just trying

0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:43.560
<v Speaker 3>to get these kids acclimated to what they're uh to

0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:45.439
<v Speaker 3>what they're gonna do. You're gonna get a lot more

0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:48.560
<v Speaker 3>of an evaluation when we get the veterans and they

0:18:48.600 --> 0:18:51.280
<v Speaker 3>can work together. We'll see some team periods and things

0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:53.040
<v Speaker 3>like that, which will give you a better idea. But

0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:55.960
<v Speaker 3>it is really about the basics when you bring these

0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:58.840
<v Speaker 3>guys in, and so you know the size physically, how

0:18:58.920 --> 0:19:01.160
<v Speaker 3>these guys look. I was really super impressive. I could

0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:05.080
<v Speaker 3>just real quick these safeties that they had Themanny Johnson

0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:08.600
<v Speaker 3>and Julius Wood. Those are two really good looking safeties

0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:11.239
<v Speaker 3>that they brought in, big guys, and so you know,

0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:13.640
<v Speaker 3>it's good to see some size. It's good to see

0:19:13.680 --> 0:19:16.439
<v Speaker 3>the idea of what they were having at some certain positions.

0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:19.640
<v Speaker 3>But it all boils down to can you even line

0:19:19.720 --> 0:19:21.280
<v Speaker 3>up and get in a stance? That might be the

0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:24.320
<v Speaker 3>most important thing I learned from that camp that there's

0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:26.840
<v Speaker 3>going to be some work of having to maybe convert

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:29.760
<v Speaker 3>some guys and take them into Okay, you might have

0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:32.480
<v Speaker 3>done it this way in college, but we need you

0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:34.520
<v Speaker 3>to do it this way for what we're doing.

0:19:34.880 --> 0:19:37.760
<v Speaker 7>A couple of things, first and foremost more, Shawn Niland

0:19:38.119 --> 0:19:42.280
<v Speaker 7>is physically impressive. You know that by looking at the film.

0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:44.440
<v Speaker 7>But it's not until you are standing right in front

0:19:44.440 --> 0:19:46.840
<v Speaker 7>of him, until you realize at that moment that this

0:19:47.280 --> 0:19:50.200
<v Speaker 7>guy's a specimen. He has the size of the mask

0:19:50.240 --> 0:19:53.359
<v Speaker 7>and he is absolutely chiseled. And I love his demeanor

0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:55.440
<v Speaker 7>as well as kind of like this soft smile that

0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:58.480
<v Speaker 7>you know it's that fafo and if you know the Academy,

0:19:58.440 --> 0:19:59.400
<v Speaker 7>you know what I'm going for there.

0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:01.080
<v Speaker 10>He wants to get on the field and really do

0:20:01.160 --> 0:20:01.800
<v Speaker 10>some damage.

0:20:01.840 --> 0:20:05.120
<v Speaker 7>And I think there's a reason why the Cowboys saw

0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 7>so much in him to use a second round pick

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:10.080
<v Speaker 7>on that guy. So that's one as Marshaw Kneeland is

0:20:10.480 --> 0:20:13.399
<v Speaker 7>much more physically impressive in real life than film would indicate.

0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:16.520
<v Speaker 7>Second for me is the battle at center, and Bar

0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:20.520
<v Speaker 7>touched on this earlier because it's something that Mike Celari

0:20:20.600 --> 0:20:22.359
<v Speaker 7>said yesterday in the Q and A.

0:20:23.119 --> 0:20:23.399
<v Speaker 10>TJ.

0:20:23.600 --> 0:20:27.440
<v Speaker 7>Bass is going to be competing at center alongside brock Hoffman,

0:20:27.560 --> 0:20:31.359
<v Speaker 7>alongside Cooper BB. I had my eyes glued to Cooper

0:20:31.440 --> 0:20:35.600
<v Speaker 7>BB seeing how comfortable he was in the context of granted,

0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:37.359
<v Speaker 7>the veterans were not there. It's not a full offensive

0:20:37.400 --> 0:20:40.040
<v Speaker 7>line in rookie Minnie camp that's down until effective yesterday,

0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:42.800
<v Speaker 7>but he did look for what he was doing. He

0:20:42.880 --> 0:20:45.720
<v Speaker 7>looked comfortable. He looked comfortable pointing out the pre snap

0:20:45.760 --> 0:20:47.879
<v Speaker 7>identifiers and things like that. And that also goes to

0:20:47.920 --> 0:20:51.040
<v Speaker 7>the fact that in speaking with BB, he said that

0:20:51.119 --> 0:20:53.680
<v Speaker 7>he's been putting a lot of work into his transition

0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:56.320
<v Speaker 7>to center off of the field, so to the point

0:20:56.320 --> 0:20:58.800
<v Speaker 7>where he said he'll be at home, and we asked, well,

0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:00.639
<v Speaker 7>you know who's catching your snap and he said, anyone

0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:03.320
<v Speaker 7>who's willing, Like he's throwing snaps to his dad, to

0:21:03.400 --> 0:21:05.320
<v Speaker 7>his mom, to his brother, like whoever is willing to

0:21:05.359 --> 0:21:07.439
<v Speaker 7>get out there in the yard and catch his snaps.

0:21:07.640 --> 0:21:09.960
<v Speaker 7>And it's starting to kind of show in how quickly

0:21:10.000 --> 0:21:12.600
<v Speaker 7>he's being able to transition. So for me, it's Cooper

0:21:12.640 --> 0:21:16.840
<v Speaker 7>Bebe's transition at center. But also the light bulb coming

0:21:16.880 --> 0:21:19.679
<v Speaker 7>on saying, hey, this isn't simply Cooper BB versus brock Hoffman.

0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:20.520
<v Speaker 10>They're throwing TJ.

0:21:20.640 --> 0:21:23.080
<v Speaker 7>Bass in there as well, because Mike Slari said perfectly,

0:21:23.160 --> 0:21:26.159
<v Speaker 7>they'd like to have maybe three available centers when they

0:21:26.200 --> 0:21:27.200
<v Speaker 7>go into any given game.

0:21:27.359 --> 0:21:31.080
<v Speaker 3>Mike Solari keeps reminding us about Hoffman. He is not

0:21:31.160 --> 0:21:33.159
<v Speaker 3>gonna let us Steven Jones. He is not going to

0:21:33.240 --> 0:21:34.359
<v Speaker 3>let us forget about Hoffman.

0:21:34.480 --> 0:21:34.680
<v Speaker 10>Yah.

0:21:34.760 --> 0:21:36.880
<v Speaker 2>It seems like they really like a lot of people

0:21:36.960 --> 0:21:38.239
<v Speaker 2>in the front office like him.

0:21:38.440 --> 0:21:41.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, and that's you know, you draft BB and

0:21:41.600 --> 0:21:43.720
<v Speaker 3>we've all got plug and Play in mind, and we've

0:21:43.760 --> 0:21:45.919
<v Speaker 3>got BB as that guy. And you're right, he's going

0:21:46.000 --> 0:21:48.200
<v Speaker 3>to have to work on snap step. You know, those

0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:50.920
<v Speaker 3>are things that his life has always been. Hand on

0:21:51.000 --> 0:21:53.000
<v Speaker 3>the ground, step go kind of thing. Now you have

0:21:53.080 --> 0:21:54.800
<v Speaker 3>to snap make sure it's there and then you get

0:21:54.840 --> 0:21:58.880
<v Speaker 3>to go. But yeah, everybody's got him just plug and play,

0:21:59.600 --> 0:22:01.840
<v Speaker 3>and everybody in the organization is kind of like, I

0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:05.560
<v Speaker 3>just give a chance. I think they keep reminding you.

0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:07.920
<v Speaker 6>About Hoffing some of the conversations I've had from with

0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:10.399
<v Speaker 6>people around here. I think the reason why there's that

0:22:10.680 --> 0:22:13.040
<v Speaker 6>level of respect for him is because.

0:22:12.760 --> 0:22:14.400
<v Speaker 2>The work is a worker man.

0:22:14.560 --> 0:22:17.680
<v Speaker 6>He is where, he's always here, He's always it's still

0:22:17.800 --> 0:22:20.440
<v Speaker 6>like yeah, and I think there's something that that's respected

0:22:20.640 --> 0:22:23.440
<v Speaker 6>in this business when you find somebody that's just willing

0:22:23.480 --> 0:22:24.120
<v Speaker 6>to put in the work.

0:22:24.240 --> 0:22:27.040
<v Speaker 3>We remember Joe Philbin, you know, Joe Philben fell in

0:22:27.119 --> 0:22:29.560
<v Speaker 3>love with Terrence still when I was throwing dirt all

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:31.840
<v Speaker 3>over him, you know, I was not giving Terrence still

0:22:32.000 --> 0:22:34.600
<v Speaker 3>the opportunity, even the light of day, to be a

0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:37.680
<v Speaker 3>starting right tackle in the National Football League. And you know,

0:22:38.400 --> 0:22:41.000
<v Speaker 3>Joe Philbin kept her mind us first in last out

0:22:41.440 --> 0:22:44.960
<v Speaker 3>weight room. Guy likes to likes to study film, asks

0:22:44.960 --> 0:22:47.840
<v Speaker 3>a bunch of questions, very intensive. Coaches love those guys.

0:22:48.240 --> 0:22:50.720
<v Speaker 3>They love those guys. They don't I mean, yeah, they

0:22:50.800 --> 0:22:54.600
<v Speaker 3>have to coach them, but they love the self motivated guy.

0:22:55.160 --> 0:22:57.800
<v Speaker 3>And I think that this is I think this is

0:22:57.920 --> 0:23:01.440
<v Speaker 3>the if you talk about pet Cat for an offensive

0:23:01.520 --> 0:23:04.600
<v Speaker 3>line coach with Mike Clari, I think that Hoffin's guy.

0:23:05.040 --> 0:23:07.760
<v Speaker 3>And he is going to always remind you, you know,

0:23:07.840 --> 0:23:10.640
<v Speaker 3>every time, well you know, you talk about Bibe, talked

0:23:10.640 --> 0:23:12.560
<v Speaker 3>about Bibe to well, you know what, this Hoffman kid,

0:23:12.600 --> 0:23:14.920
<v Speaker 3>we got a he's a tough kid, you know. He

0:23:15.160 --> 0:23:17.560
<v Speaker 3>he he would go out of his way to mention Hoffman.

0:23:18.280 --> 0:23:20.240
<v Speaker 3>We interviewed him on day three of the draft talking

0:23:20.240 --> 0:23:22.120
<v Speaker 3>about Hoffman, What did you do out there in front

0:23:22.119 --> 0:23:24.440
<v Speaker 3>of the media day he thought he brought up Hoffmin again,

0:23:24.680 --> 0:23:27.320
<v Speaker 3>really didn't even talk about really a lot of other guys,

0:23:27.480 --> 0:23:30.600
<v Speaker 3>Howfmin was a guy that he wanted to point out. So, yeah,

0:23:30.720 --> 0:23:33.399
<v Speaker 3>that similar there's gonna be a battle there, there's going

0:23:33.480 --> 0:23:34.280
<v Speaker 3>to be a battle.

0:23:34.119 --> 0:23:34.840
<v Speaker 9>About a year ago.

0:23:34.880 --> 0:23:37.680
<v Speaker 8>I mean it was kind of similar to TJ Bass.

0:23:37.840 --> 0:23:40.439
<v Speaker 8>TJ Bass was the guy that everyone kept bringing up,

0:23:40.760 --> 0:23:44.120
<v Speaker 8>even when you weren't talking about him necessarily, people teammates

0:23:44.160 --> 0:23:47.040
<v Speaker 8>would bring him up and talk about how like impressive

0:23:47.119 --> 0:23:48.920
<v Speaker 8>he's been and all of that and what he's shown.

0:23:49.280 --> 0:23:51.160
<v Speaker 8>But another thing that was brought up that I think

0:23:51.200 --> 0:23:55.600
<v Speaker 8>it's important was he reminded us of you can only

0:23:55.720 --> 0:23:58.480
<v Speaker 8>dress x amount of play on game dates, So it

0:23:58.640 --> 0:24:00.920
<v Speaker 8>is very important. Something that they're keeping in mind is

0:24:01.000 --> 0:24:04.600
<v Speaker 8>just making sure they're kind of dividing repetitions at different

0:24:04.640 --> 0:24:08.720
<v Speaker 8>spots to where they do have that versatility to where

0:24:08.920 --> 0:24:11.680
<v Speaker 8>if anything was to happen, you do have guys that

0:24:11.760 --> 0:24:15.440
<v Speaker 8>already have been practicing getting some reps there. So I

0:24:15.560 --> 0:24:19.119
<v Speaker 8>think that's very very valuable too, not only see but

0:24:19.240 --> 0:24:22.639
<v Speaker 8>also here that they're focusing on that. But something that

0:24:23.640 --> 0:24:27.240
<v Speaker 8>was impressive to me and I always talk about wanting

0:24:27.280 --> 0:24:30.479
<v Speaker 8>to talk to the players, getting a vibe and all

0:24:30.520 --> 0:24:32.520
<v Speaker 8>of that, and something that stood out for me is

0:24:32.600 --> 0:24:35.040
<v Speaker 8>like this time around and it always has been this way,

0:24:35.200 --> 0:24:37.280
<v Speaker 8>except this year, it wasn't like.

0:24:37.640 --> 0:24:42.280
<v Speaker 9>Oh look at that baby, Oh a little baby, and

0:24:42.359 --> 0:24:44.080
<v Speaker 9>then I'm like, damn, I'm old.

0:24:44.320 --> 0:24:45.120
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god.

0:24:45.359 --> 0:24:48.480
<v Speaker 8>I started just like you when I got here, But

0:24:48.640 --> 0:24:52.560
<v Speaker 8>I got in front of men that look like mature,

0:24:53.040 --> 0:24:56.720
<v Speaker 8>grown men, not only in the way they looked physically

0:24:57.160 --> 0:25:01.119
<v Speaker 8>as far as like height and shape and form and

0:25:01.160 --> 0:25:03.800
<v Speaker 8>all of that, but also the way they presented themselves

0:25:04.000 --> 0:25:06.440
<v Speaker 8>to work, and they looked very comfortable.

0:25:07.600 --> 0:25:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Has changed the game.

0:25:09.000 --> 0:25:12.560
<v Speaker 6>College kids come in that way savvy when it comes

0:25:12.600 --> 0:25:13.680
<v Speaker 6>to the media than they did before.

0:25:14.520 --> 0:25:18.080
<v Speaker 10>Is a perfect example Hit the how he addresses the media.

0:25:18.200 --> 0:25:19.680
<v Speaker 9>So that was impressive to me.

0:25:19.920 --> 0:25:23.520
<v Speaker 8>Just the confidence, the way they spoke, the confidence and

0:25:23.680 --> 0:25:27.600
<v Speaker 8>and the maturity maturity that they seem to have right

0:25:27.680 --> 0:25:30.360
<v Speaker 8>off the bat, that they look like once we see

0:25:30.400 --> 0:25:32.640
<v Speaker 8>them with the veterans, that they'll fit in very well.

0:25:32.800 --> 0:25:36.200
<v Speaker 3>The pandemic also gave everybody an extra year. You have

0:25:36.320 --> 0:25:39.919
<v Speaker 3>some six year guys now college football.

0:25:40.440 --> 0:25:41.320
<v Speaker 10>Shouts out to COVID.

0:25:43.840 --> 0:25:45.440
<v Speaker 6>All right, here's another question I have for you guys

0:25:45.440 --> 0:25:47.920
<v Speaker 6>about the weekend, and really this is about the draft

0:25:48.000 --> 0:25:51.160
<v Speaker 6>class and undrafted free agents who the Cowboys have signed.

0:25:51.400 --> 0:25:53.040
<v Speaker 2>Who do you think is more of a lock to

0:25:53.119 --> 0:25:54.280
<v Speaker 2>be a starter in Week one?

0:25:56.480 --> 0:26:01.080
<v Speaker 3>A lock? A lock? If you had to okay, depending

0:26:01.160 --> 0:26:06.080
<v Speaker 3>on what happens at right defensive end. Does Marshawn Neelan

0:26:06.160 --> 0:26:09.080
<v Speaker 3>do more than Sam Williams. That's the question you have

0:26:09.240 --> 0:26:10.320
<v Speaker 3>to ask yourself right there?

0:26:10.440 --> 0:26:13.360
<v Speaker 6>Are you assuming Micah would be pencil down as I'll

0:26:13.359 --> 0:26:14.120
<v Speaker 6>start at linebacker?

0:26:14.200 --> 0:26:14.360
<v Speaker 14>Yeah?

0:26:14.400 --> 0:26:17.640
<v Speaker 3>I think so. I mean maybe this offensive line group,

0:26:17.680 --> 0:26:20.240
<v Speaker 3>maybe the left tackle probably would be a guy that

0:26:20.320 --> 0:26:22.720
<v Speaker 3>you would say is a lock. But I was trying

0:26:22.760 --> 0:26:25.159
<v Speaker 3>to go differently because I kind of feel like that

0:26:25.440 --> 0:26:29.399
<v Speaker 3>those line positions that might be a lock. But if

0:26:29.440 --> 0:26:32.399
<v Speaker 3>you're going I wouldn't be surprised. I'm gonna put a

0:26:32.440 --> 0:26:35.840
<v Speaker 3>lot of pressure on this kid. This Kayln Carson's a

0:26:35.880 --> 0:26:38.760
<v Speaker 3>hell of a football player, right of way. First, if

0:26:38.840 --> 0:26:44.359
<v Speaker 3>he plays well enough outside during training camp, could that

0:26:44.640 --> 0:26:48.000
<v Speaker 3>mean you kick Bland inside and Jordan Lewis is now

0:26:48.119 --> 0:26:53.720
<v Speaker 3>odd man out? So I'm keeping a close close eye

0:26:53.800 --> 0:26:56.879
<v Speaker 3>on Kaylen Carson because if he he had that kind

0:26:56.880 --> 0:26:59.120
<v Speaker 3>of ability, He's got that kind of ability. I think

0:26:59.160 --> 0:27:01.440
<v Speaker 3>there were so many corners in this draft and he

0:27:01.600 --> 0:27:05.879
<v Speaker 3>got lost in a pretty deep group and he's just

0:27:06.119 --> 0:27:10.280
<v Speaker 3>what like, his traits are just what Mike Zimber likes,

0:27:10.320 --> 0:27:13.239
<v Speaker 3>and they had him playing the right corner in Uh,

0:27:13.800 --> 0:27:15.919
<v Speaker 3>this just kind of starting out. We'll see where they

0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:18.520
<v Speaker 3>if they move him around. But if he's good enough

0:27:18.600 --> 0:27:20.399
<v Speaker 3>on the outside and he played as what we known

0:27:20.440 --> 0:27:22.840
<v Speaker 3>as a field corner, which covers you know, the field

0:27:22.880 --> 0:27:25.760
<v Speaker 3>corner takes a lot of a lot of space. So

0:27:26.480 --> 0:27:29.800
<v Speaker 3>I just wonder, if he's good enough, does it make

0:27:29.960 --> 0:27:34.359
<v Speaker 3>them feel like he could start in the nickel on

0:27:34.480 --> 0:27:37.560
<v Speaker 3>the outside and then they move land. That's that's what

0:27:37.640 --> 0:27:40.399
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna. I'm gonna I'm gonna kind of monitor that

0:27:40.520 --> 0:27:41.280
<v Speaker 3>as we go along.

0:27:41.560 --> 0:27:45.639
<v Speaker 7>I think my closest luck and it's it's difficult to

0:27:45.800 --> 0:27:48.760
<v Speaker 7>say because each of these rookies are up against competitions

0:27:48.880 --> 0:27:51.680
<v Speaker 7>like Kayln Carter, Kayln Carson, he's up against Jordan Lewis

0:27:51.760 --> 0:27:54.960
<v Speaker 7>in and the Deron Blands of the world. But in

0:27:55.000 --> 0:27:57.240
<v Speaker 7>Cooper Beebe, he's up against brock Hoffman and t J.

0:27:57.400 --> 0:27:59.879
<v Speaker 7>Basz and Tyler Geydon. When you look at who he's

0:28:00.080 --> 0:28:03.280
<v Speaker 7>up against, he has the best opportunity to be the

0:28:03.359 --> 0:28:07.080
<v Speaker 7>most likely starter for Week one of this entire rookie class.

0:28:07.359 --> 0:28:12.159
<v Speaker 7>It's his athleticism, it's his physical stature and build, and

0:28:12.200 --> 0:28:14.360
<v Speaker 7>it's also the fact that he's your first round pick,

0:28:14.640 --> 0:28:17.320
<v Speaker 7>and then who is he challenging because now with him

0:28:17.359 --> 0:28:20.160
<v Speaker 7>and the building, presumably Tyler Smith is going to stay

0:28:20.160 --> 0:28:23.040
<v Speaker 7>at leftguard, So that means he's going up against Chumaydoga.

0:28:23.320 --> 0:28:25.200
<v Speaker 7>I think he can beat out to Manydoga. This summer,

0:28:25.359 --> 0:28:27.320
<v Speaker 7>He's going against Matt Well let's go. Well, let's go.

0:28:27.440 --> 0:28:30.080
<v Speaker 7>Has to prove he can remain healthy. They're moving Josh

0:28:30.160 --> 0:28:33.560
<v Speaker 7>Bauld inside. So when you look at the competition versus Guyton,

0:28:33.800 --> 0:28:36.959
<v Speaker 7>and you look at Guidon's ceiling, even going into week one,

0:28:37.080 --> 0:28:39.560
<v Speaker 7>year one, I think Guian is the most likely to

0:28:39.680 --> 0:28:41.480
<v Speaker 7>be a lock. Not to say that he definitely is,

0:28:41.600 --> 0:28:42.560
<v Speaker 7>but he has the best shot.

0:28:42.600 --> 0:28:44.360
<v Speaker 3>You want to you want a dark horse, you want

0:28:44.400 --> 0:28:46.400
<v Speaker 3>a real I know you're saying locks, you want a

0:28:46.480 --> 0:28:50.280
<v Speaker 3>dark horse on this one. Justin Rogers starting over, Mazzie

0:28:50.320 --> 0:28:54.479
<v Speaker 3>Smith one technique, I'd be a story in a lot

0:28:54.520 --> 0:28:57.120
<v Speaker 3>of different ways. Yeah, you know, And talking to people

0:28:57.160 --> 0:28:58.680
<v Speaker 3>about Mazzi, They're going to do the best he can

0:28:58.720 --> 0:29:00.200
<v Speaker 3>to get him ready. They want him to be in

0:29:00.240 --> 0:29:01.800
<v Speaker 3>the weight room, they want him to put on as

0:29:01.880 --> 0:29:03.479
<v Speaker 3>much good weight as he can. They want to get

0:29:03.520 --> 0:29:06.000
<v Speaker 3>his strength back. You know, right now, I believe is

0:29:06.040 --> 0:29:08.480
<v Speaker 3>at three zero five, you know they're they're gonna they're

0:29:08.520 --> 0:29:10.720
<v Speaker 3>rehabbing the hell out of him, trying to get him ready.

0:29:11.360 --> 0:29:15.360
<v Speaker 3>But if you wanted a dark horse, maybe and it's

0:29:15.480 --> 0:29:16.840
<v Speaker 3>I know you asked the question for a.

0:29:16.840 --> 0:29:17.880
<v Speaker 2>While, that's fine, that's good.

0:29:18.040 --> 0:29:22.840
<v Speaker 3>But somebody that, like Justin Rogers, shows enough that he's

0:29:22.960 --> 0:29:26.200
<v Speaker 3>the starting one technique against the Cleveland Browns an opening day, ye,

0:29:26.600 --> 0:29:28.560
<v Speaker 3>that would be something I would keep an eye on.

0:29:28.960 --> 0:29:31.000
<v Speaker 9>That's exactly the guy that I was gonna mention.

0:29:31.160 --> 0:29:35.960
<v Speaker 8>And it's odd because obviously being picked in the seventh round,

0:29:36.480 --> 0:29:39.200
<v Speaker 8>typically you're not gonna pick that over who was your

0:29:39.240 --> 0:29:41.760
<v Speaker 8>first round pick last year.

0:29:42.000 --> 0:29:46.000
<v Speaker 9>So it's difficult. But at the same time, this guy

0:29:47.200 --> 0:29:50.480
<v Speaker 9>does have the size. He has the size, he has.

0:29:50.400 --> 0:29:52.600
<v Speaker 8>The weight, and he can be a guy that you

0:29:52.760 --> 0:29:55.560
<v Speaker 8>plug in there and just settles that like move me,

0:29:55.680 --> 0:29:58.520
<v Speaker 8>try to move me. And not only that, but he's

0:29:58.600 --> 0:30:02.360
<v Speaker 8>also he's shown to be really good at helping blocking

0:30:02.480 --> 0:30:05.800
<v Speaker 8>the run game run defense, and that's something that obviously

0:30:06.160 --> 0:30:10.040
<v Speaker 8>the Cowboys have struggled with. So he's not necessarily someone

0:30:10.120 --> 0:30:13.160
<v Speaker 8>that I feel confident, you know, with confidence to say, oh,

0:30:13.280 --> 0:30:16.640
<v Speaker 8>he'll be a starter over Mossie. But definitely someone to

0:30:16.760 --> 0:30:17.360
<v Speaker 8>keep an eye on.

0:30:17.560 --> 0:30:21.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I keep thinking back to another Auburn defensive tackle

0:30:21.680 --> 0:30:24.680
<v Speaker 6>that they brought at late round turned into a player

0:30:24.720 --> 0:30:26.280
<v Speaker 6>and Jay Ratt left, and I'm like, if.

0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:28.680
<v Speaker 2>Only they can, if only they can get another that was?

0:30:28.680 --> 0:30:30.880
<v Speaker 3>That was that your draft two thousand and five, It

0:30:31.000 --> 0:30:32.680
<v Speaker 3>was the last one. That was that draft with with

0:30:33.720 --> 0:30:34.880
<v Speaker 3>with where.

0:30:35.120 --> 0:30:37.360
<v Speaker 2>And in my opinion of the best drafting Cowboys history.

0:30:37.400 --> 0:30:38.200
<v Speaker 10>That's it was.

0:30:38.400 --> 0:30:39.960
<v Speaker 3>It was a good one. That was a good draft.

0:30:40.040 --> 0:30:42.320
<v Speaker 3>And then you look at Chris Canty in that draft

0:30:42.360 --> 0:30:44.160
<v Speaker 3>as well, So there was quite a few.

0:30:44.400 --> 0:30:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Kevin Burnett in that draft. Second round.

0:30:47.560 --> 0:30:50.960
<v Speaker 6>That it was, it was where it was spears it was.

0:30:51.040 --> 0:30:53.720
<v Speaker 6>I think I think Kevin Burnett was the second round kick.

0:30:54.120 --> 0:30:56.320
<v Speaker 6>I don't remember whose third round Canty was fourth, right

0:30:56.360 --> 0:30:56.600
<v Speaker 6>and he.

0:30:56.760 --> 0:30:59.280
<v Speaker 3>Was fourth, Yeah, but they had it was it was.

0:30:59.400 --> 0:31:03.400
<v Speaker 3>It was a good Aran Barber was in that draft.

0:31:03.520 --> 0:31:05.760
<v Speaker 2>He was the fifth pick in that draft, right, fifth

0:31:05.840 --> 0:31:06.200
<v Speaker 2>round pick.

0:31:06.320 --> 0:31:08.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that was a test to me, but I remember,

0:31:08.920 --> 0:31:10.960
<v Speaker 3>that's a good draft. The thing about the thing, I

0:31:11.000 --> 0:31:14.040
<v Speaker 3>think why Justin Rodgers has the chances because right now

0:31:14.680 --> 0:31:17.479
<v Speaker 3>there's so much unknown about Mozzie Smith. Yeah, I think

0:31:17.600 --> 0:31:19.920
<v Speaker 3>that's that to me, is you know if you said,

0:31:19.960 --> 0:31:23.040
<v Speaker 3>well you know what's what's what's the thing, you probably

0:31:23.120 --> 0:31:25.560
<v Speaker 3>know the least is gonna I don't know what's gonna

0:31:25.560 --> 0:31:28.000
<v Speaker 3>happen with Mozzie Smith. I don't. And I'm saying that

0:31:28.120 --> 0:31:30.000
<v Speaker 3>in I'm not saying in a negative way. I'm just

0:31:30.120 --> 0:31:31.080
<v Speaker 3>don't know right now.

0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:32.720
<v Speaker 6>With that, all right, we're gonna take our final break,

0:31:32.760 --> 0:31:35.160
<v Speaker 6>we'll come back. We'll start our position series. Don't think

0:31:35.200 --> 0:31:37.440
<v Speaker 6>we'll get to the tight end position day, but we'll

0:31:37.480 --> 0:31:38.360
<v Speaker 6>do the quarterback position.

0:31:38.400 --> 0:31:39.600
<v Speaker 2>We'll see how far we get with that. We'll be

0:31:39.600 --> 0:31:41.120
<v Speaker 2>back Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio.

0:31:43.120 --> 0:31:44.800
<v Speaker 11>Todd thought it would be secure to jog in the

0:31:44.880 --> 0:31:47.800
<v Speaker 11>Cheatah Savannah. Todd believed the big Cat repellent he bought

0:31:47.840 --> 0:31:50.720
<v Speaker 11>online was reliable. And now Todd is trying to be

0:31:50.800 --> 0:31:53.440
<v Speaker 11>faster than this cheetah that can run eighty miles per hour.

0:31:54.080 --> 0:31:55.680
<v Speaker 11>But the good news is Todd has a T and

0:31:55.720 --> 0:31:58.400
<v Speaker 11>T five G. It is fast, reliable, and secure, and

0:31:58.520 --> 0:32:00.760
<v Speaker 11>he learned the best thing to do is running and

<v Speaker 6>of Media coming up today.

0:35:15.840 --> 0:35:18.320
<v Speaker 3>I saw you on TV yesterday. Did they did a

0:35:18.400 --> 0:35:21.640
<v Speaker 3>thing that was that was an ESPN thing about scheduled releases.

0:35:21.960 --> 0:35:23.960
<v Speaker 3>Really it looked like, Okay, who did the did the

0:35:24.200 --> 0:35:26.120
<v Speaker 3>Chargers do when they was animated? Yeah?

0:35:26.120 --> 0:35:27.840
<v Speaker 2>They always they've done that for the last is.

0:35:29.600 --> 0:35:30.960
<v Speaker 3>It is it studio influence?

0:35:31.000 --> 0:35:31.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't think so.

0:35:31.719 --> 0:35:33.439
<v Speaker 6>I think they but they've done it for a few years.

0:35:33.480 --> 0:35:36.240
<v Speaker 6>They've done the little animated you know anime.

0:35:36.719 --> 0:35:38.040
<v Speaker 3>They interviewed all your department.

0:35:38.120 --> 0:35:40.759
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, it was me and Drew and Drew heads our

0:35:40.800 --> 0:35:44.839
<v Speaker 6>creative video team, Brittany Johnson who had our social media team.

0:35:44.880 --> 0:35:46.600
<v Speaker 2>The three of us did the interview with Yeah.

0:35:46.719 --> 0:35:48.520
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, that was a piece they did.

0:35:48.520 --> 0:35:51.520
<v Speaker 6>Last year and they've kind of redone it a little

0:35:51.520 --> 0:35:53.520
<v Speaker 6>bit with you some of the old footage this year.

0:35:53.719 --> 0:35:55.640
<v Speaker 3>It looked like to me that the Chargers did have

0:35:55.719 --> 0:35:57.840
<v Speaker 3>an interesting one when it was cartoon.

0:35:57.600 --> 0:35:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Like, yeah, it's anime they do.

0:35:58.960 --> 0:36:00.520
<v Speaker 6>They do anime, and they've done it for a couple

0:36:00.719 --> 0:36:02.960
<v Speaker 6>like at least two years, maybe three, but at least so.

0:36:03.000 --> 0:36:04.879
<v Speaker 3>They need to change their bit, that's what you're saying.

0:36:05.000 --> 0:36:06.759
<v Speaker 6>No, I'm saying they did a good by the way,

0:36:06.840 --> 0:36:08.560
<v Speaker 6>it's really good. It's actually really good.

0:36:08.600 --> 0:36:08.960
<v Speaker 10>So I don't know.

0:36:09.280 --> 0:36:11.400
<v Speaker 6>Sometimes you find something and it works and you just

0:36:11.480 --> 0:36:13.080
<v Speaker 6>kind of stick with it because it works, right, So

0:36:13.080 --> 0:36:14.560
<v Speaker 6>I wouldn't be surprised if they did that again.

0:36:16.120 --> 0:36:17.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, people love anime.

0:36:17.400 --> 0:36:17.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't.

0:36:17.719 --> 0:36:19.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm not an anime person. My daughter is huge and

0:36:19.920 --> 0:36:21.160
<v Speaker 2>she loves Yeah.

0:36:24.360 --> 0:36:27.000
<v Speaker 9>Them, was it them? Who was the team that attacked

0:36:27.040 --> 0:36:27.560
<v Speaker 9>to everybody?

0:36:28.239 --> 0:36:32.760
<v Speaker 2>They tell me that every year at that Chargers attaching.

0:36:35.920 --> 0:36:38.520
<v Speaker 10>You know, I'm saying anime. I'm saying you can't go

0:36:38.560 --> 0:36:41.560
<v Speaker 10>wrong with anime. Give pre anime.

0:36:42.719 --> 0:36:47.040
<v Speaker 3>We could like pre clear pre Paul uh Tyson, we

0:36:47.080 --> 0:36:49.720
<v Speaker 3>could have you versit. The guy at the Chargers.

0:36:49.640 --> 0:36:53.560
<v Speaker 6>Boxing, Well, whenever we play the Chargers again, we may

0:36:53.640 --> 0:36:54.719
<v Speaker 6>have something fun for them.

0:36:54.760 --> 0:36:55.640
<v Speaker 2>We'll see how it goes.

0:36:56.400 --> 0:36:58.200
<v Speaker 3>You've had enough of the Chargers, is that what you're saying?

0:36:58.320 --> 0:36:58.400
<v Speaker 12>Now?

0:36:58.480 --> 0:37:01.800
<v Speaker 3>I respect what they do, I really with respect. The

0:37:01.840 --> 0:37:04.160
<v Speaker 3>guy was here, you'd fist fight with him, right, I.

0:37:04.160 --> 0:37:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Don't fight anymore. That's my younger days. I've leave I've

0:37:07.000 --> 0:37:07.960
<v Speaker 2>left that behind.

0:37:11.440 --> 0:37:12.120
<v Speaker 10>Last year anyway.

0:37:12.200 --> 0:37:16.400
<v Speaker 6>So yeah, yeah, you don't have to say anything you said, right, right,

0:37:16.560 --> 0:37:18.800
<v Speaker 6>All right, let's go. So let's talk about the position.

0:37:18.840 --> 0:37:21.160
<v Speaker 6>Noalysis is where we do We're gonna do something. We're

0:37:21.160 --> 0:37:25.640
<v Speaker 6>gonna do something called the swat analysis, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats.

0:37:26.160 --> 0:37:26.760
<v Speaker 2>I'll explain.

0:37:27.320 --> 0:37:29.960
<v Speaker 6>I'll explain each one as we go through. Let's start though,

0:37:30.040 --> 0:37:32.759
<v Speaker 6>with strenks. We're gonna start at the quarterback position. Tell me,

0:37:32.840 --> 0:37:34.000
<v Speaker 6>I want each of you to tell me what you

0:37:34.040 --> 0:37:36.719
<v Speaker 6>think the biggest strength of this quarterback group is.

0:37:37.000 --> 0:37:38.120
<v Speaker 2>Let's start with you, Patrick.

0:37:41.280 --> 0:37:41.600
<v Speaker 15>I Q.

0:37:43.200 --> 0:37:46.600
<v Speaker 10>And ability to put up points.

0:37:46.800 --> 0:37:49.759
<v Speaker 7>If we're talking about Dak Prescott, yes, he has his

0:37:49.880 --> 0:37:52.759
<v Speaker 7>faults and we but we're talking about strengths right now.

0:37:52.920 --> 0:37:56.440
<v Speaker 7>So he has full command of his NFL offense. Full

0:37:56.480 --> 0:37:59.759
<v Speaker 7>command of the Cowboys offense. Didn't take him long and

0:38:00.120 --> 0:38:03.279
<v Speaker 7>crazy when you think about it, because how many coordinators

0:38:03.480 --> 0:38:05.040
<v Speaker 7>is this for him now as far as play callers

0:38:05.120 --> 0:38:08.719
<v Speaker 7>goes right, So, yeah, and he just continues mostly to

0:38:08.800 --> 0:38:11.040
<v Speaker 7>perform at a high level in the regular season at

0:38:11.120 --> 0:38:14.080
<v Speaker 7>least still got to get over that postseason Hume. So

0:38:14.280 --> 0:38:16.479
<v Speaker 7>for me, yeah, and then when you look at Cooper Rush,

0:38:16.560 --> 0:38:18.719
<v Speaker 7>Cooper Rush is who I call you, cool hand Luke.

0:38:18.840 --> 0:38:19.320
<v Speaker 10>He can come in.

0:38:19.440 --> 0:38:21.160
<v Speaker 7>He's not going to win you the game, but he's

0:38:21.200 --> 0:38:24.080
<v Speaker 7>not going to lose you the game either, right, question Mark,

0:38:24.160 --> 0:38:26.319
<v Speaker 7>Still on tree Lance, the potential is certainly there as

0:38:26.360 --> 0:38:31.239
<v Speaker 7>a former third overall pick. Strength being that he has

0:38:31.560 --> 0:38:33.640
<v Speaker 7>the ability to move the ball, he can move his

0:38:33.760 --> 0:38:38.360
<v Speaker 7>legs challenge opposing defenses in that way. But still a

0:38:38.400 --> 0:38:41.000
<v Speaker 7>lot to be determined on trade lance. So I can't

0:38:41.000 --> 0:38:43.120
<v Speaker 7>really put a lot on Tree Lance in the strength category,

0:38:43.160 --> 0:38:44.239
<v Speaker 7>but I can on Cooper.

0:38:44.000 --> 0:38:46.920
<v Speaker 3>In deck depth. That would be what I would say,

0:38:46.960 --> 0:38:48.120
<v Speaker 3>Ye spirits and depth.

0:38:49.400 --> 0:38:49.960
<v Speaker 9>I would say.

0:38:50.160 --> 0:38:52.480
<v Speaker 8>I mean, as far as Dyke, I think he is

0:38:52.600 --> 0:38:55.160
<v Speaker 8>at his prime. He's not too young where he's still

0:38:55.239 --> 0:38:57.760
<v Speaker 8>having to learn a whole lot, but he's not old

0:38:58.080 --> 0:39:01.319
<v Speaker 8>enough where he has a bunch of like little things

0:39:01.360 --> 0:39:05.120
<v Speaker 8>are nagging his body health wise, knock on everything. Yes,

0:39:05.640 --> 0:39:09.399
<v Speaker 8>but yes he's healthy and I think he is right

0:39:09.440 --> 0:39:11.719
<v Speaker 8>at the prime of his career. He had his best

0:39:11.800 --> 0:39:15.880
<v Speaker 8>year last year, and I think this is I'm not

0:39:15.960 --> 0:39:17.279
<v Speaker 8>gonna say this is nothing, this.

0:39:17.440 --> 0:39:18.400
<v Speaker 10>Is it is what.

0:39:18.800 --> 0:39:22.880
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, he's where he is at. I'm gonna shut my

0:39:22.960 --> 0:39:25.000
<v Speaker 8>mouth with some of the things. But as far as

0:39:25.840 --> 0:39:28.600
<v Speaker 8>Trey Lions, he the youth, I mean, he's a young

0:39:28.680 --> 0:39:32.120
<v Speaker 8>guy that there's still a lot of unknowns because we

0:39:32.360 --> 0:39:34.719
<v Speaker 8>just haven't seen it use yet, but it does give

0:39:34.760 --> 0:39:36.600
<v Speaker 8>you hope. As far as the development of what you

0:39:36.640 --> 0:39:38.160
<v Speaker 8>can possibly do with him as well.

0:39:38.280 --> 0:39:39.800
<v Speaker 2>Biggest weakness of this group.

0:39:41.800 --> 0:39:42.720
<v Speaker 3>Lack of playoff success.

0:39:42.719 --> 0:39:44.080
<v Speaker 10>I was going to say winning the playoffs.

0:39:45.120 --> 0:39:47.600
<v Speaker 3>Can't say you can't say big game success because they've

0:39:47.640 --> 0:39:51.279
<v Speaker 3>won some big games, but they I think lack of

0:39:51.440 --> 0:39:54.200
<v Speaker 3>playoffs success is what hangs over the scroup's head.

0:39:54.400 --> 0:39:57.279
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, same winning the playoffs. And we talked about this,

0:39:57.640 --> 0:39:59.560
<v Speaker 7>We said this before they lost to the Green Bay Packers.

0:39:59.560 --> 0:40:02.320
<v Speaker 7>We say, lose this game, then all of next season

0:40:02.719 --> 0:40:05.240
<v Speaker 7>is going to have this huge asterisk as we're enjoying

0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:07.200
<v Speaker 7>the wins that they have. Let's say they win against

0:40:07.200 --> 0:40:09.160
<v Speaker 7>the Cleveland Browns. We'll sit here and we'll enjoy that,

0:40:09.239 --> 0:40:12.040
<v Speaker 7>and we'll talk about that playfully with a bunch of optimism,

0:40:12.160 --> 0:40:14.600
<v Speaker 7>and then we'll have to close out that show by

0:40:14.640 --> 0:40:17.480
<v Speaker 7>saying not do it in January. So, now, Dak Prescott

0:40:17.480 --> 0:40:19.520
<v Speaker 7>didn't necessarily lose you the game against the Packers. I

0:40:19.560 --> 0:40:21.880
<v Speaker 7>think the defense mostly lost you the game against the Packers,

0:40:21.920 --> 0:40:25.680
<v Speaker 7>to be fair, But Dak was slow getting going and

0:40:26.120 --> 0:40:28.640
<v Speaker 7>he would have had to save his defense sooner than

0:40:28.719 --> 0:40:30.040
<v Speaker 7>he was able to try to do so.

0:40:30.239 --> 0:40:32.480
<v Speaker 10>So win in the playoffs. That's what everybody wants. It's

0:40:32.480 --> 0:40:32.960
<v Speaker 10>got to happen.

0:40:33.520 --> 0:40:35.160
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, there's no other answer than that.

0:40:35.880 --> 0:40:37.759
<v Speaker 8>I mean, we've seen a lot of the things that

0:40:37.880 --> 0:40:40.800
<v Speaker 8>we've asked of Dak throughout his career, whether that was

0:40:41.120 --> 0:40:44.319
<v Speaker 8>throwing more downfield, those long passes, those long shots he's

0:40:44.360 --> 0:40:47.960
<v Speaker 8>done in red zone, done it. He's being a mobile quarterback.

0:40:48.000 --> 0:40:50.880
<v Speaker 8>He's shown to do that before. So he's improved a

0:40:50.920 --> 0:40:55.719
<v Speaker 8>lot of different areas, reducing the turnover, turnovers and throwing

0:40:55.760 --> 0:41:01.400
<v Speaker 8>those interceptions. But the main thing, yeah, playoffs game, all right.

0:41:01.400 --> 0:41:03.600
<v Speaker 6>So the next one is opportunity, And I'll explain what

0:41:03.680 --> 0:41:05.080
<v Speaker 6>I mean by that. What I want to know is

0:41:05.680 --> 0:41:07.880
<v Speaker 6>what is an unknown right now, a question mark right

0:41:07.960 --> 0:41:11.520
<v Speaker 6>now that could become a big asset for this this group.

0:41:11.840 --> 0:41:14.799
<v Speaker 3>Getting him signed. If you just want to talk about

0:41:14.840 --> 0:41:17.759
<v Speaker 3>the quarterback, Yeah, I mean getting him signed, that's your

0:41:17.840 --> 0:41:19.879
<v Speaker 3>asset right there. If they find a way to get

0:41:19.920 --> 0:41:21.880
<v Speaker 3>it done, then you know that that buys you a

0:41:21.960 --> 0:41:25.640
<v Speaker 3>couple more years hopefully you know, hopefully of MVP type

0:41:25.719 --> 0:41:29.040
<v Speaker 3>level quarterbacking. But that's an unknown right now. Are you're

0:41:29.040 --> 0:41:31.239
<v Speaker 3>gonna be able to get that done? The asset could

0:41:31.320 --> 0:41:34.640
<v Speaker 3>be getting it done. The unknown is we don't know

0:41:34.680 --> 0:41:35.840
<v Speaker 3>if it's gonna get done.

0:41:36.040 --> 0:41:37.239
<v Speaker 10>I say, and I agree with Brian.

0:41:37.280 --> 0:41:39.000
<v Speaker 7>The asset is getting it done because if you don't

0:41:39.040 --> 0:41:40.839
<v Speaker 7>get it done, guess what, you also don't have Trey

0:41:40.920 --> 0:41:43.080
<v Speaker 7>Lance under contract for a long period of time either.

0:41:44.040 --> 0:41:46.680
<v Speaker 7>And you want Trey Lance to compete directly with Cooper

0:41:46.760 --> 0:41:48.799
<v Speaker 7>Rush for QB too. He got all these question marks,

0:41:48.840 --> 0:41:51.839
<v Speaker 7>but all of this is predicated upon Dak Prescott being

0:41:51.920 --> 0:41:54.640
<v Speaker 7>here for the future. And if you don't get Dak

0:41:54.640 --> 0:41:58.240
<v Speaker 7>Prescott signed and for whatever reason things they part ways

0:41:58.640 --> 0:42:01.480
<v Speaker 7>next year, is Trey Lance ready because you're only going

0:42:01.560 --> 0:42:04.800
<v Speaker 7>to be basing that that assessment next year off of

0:42:05.040 --> 0:42:09.359
<v Speaker 7>this coming preseason and probably nothing more. That's that's that's

0:42:09.440 --> 0:42:11.880
<v Speaker 7>a lot soet QB one signed.

0:42:12.719 --> 0:42:16.320
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, And and I mean, there's that's gonna affect so

0:42:16.480 --> 0:42:19.320
<v Speaker 8>many other things because what does that contract look like,

0:42:19.520 --> 0:42:21.400
<v Speaker 8>what does the money look like? Is that going to

0:42:21.480 --> 0:42:24.840
<v Speaker 8>hold you hostage and having the ability or capability of

0:42:25.000 --> 0:42:27.799
<v Speaker 8>signing other players that can be weapons and actually help

0:42:27.960 --> 0:42:31.479
<v Speaker 8>you know, it's it's a lot of unknown and even

0:42:31.520 --> 0:42:33.640
<v Speaker 8>if let's say you don't get him signed and now

0:42:33.680 --> 0:42:36.439
<v Speaker 8>you're going through a whole restructure type of white bout

0:42:36.600 --> 0:42:38.600
<v Speaker 8>like a quarterback.

0:42:38.239 --> 0:42:40.160
<v Speaker 3>Home it could affect you. It could affect you anyway,

0:42:40.360 --> 0:42:42.440
<v Speaker 3>if in the way you're because he's gonna cost forty

0:42:42.440 --> 0:42:45.000
<v Speaker 3>eight million dollars if you don't sign him on the

0:42:45.080 --> 0:42:46.319
<v Speaker 3>on the on the dead side.

0:42:46.440 --> 0:42:49.600
<v Speaker 7>For those the younger Cowboys fans who have not experienced

0:42:49.680 --> 0:42:52.120
<v Speaker 7>QB purgatory with this team, trust me when I tell

0:42:52.120 --> 0:42:53.279
<v Speaker 7>you you don't want any parts of that.

0:42:53.680 --> 0:42:54.759
<v Speaker 10>You just don't want to be in there.

0:42:54.800 --> 0:42:55.719
<v Speaker 2>Done that ain't fun.

0:42:57.040 --> 0:43:00.680
<v Speaker 3>Looking at me, I don't blame you. You were with me,

0:43:00.800 --> 0:43:01.360
<v Speaker 3>you remember it.

0:43:01.480 --> 0:43:02.960
<v Speaker 2>It's not fun, man, it is it is.

0:43:03.040 --> 0:43:06.239
<v Speaker 3>There's nothing there fun. If I would give anything to

0:43:06.520 --> 0:43:09.880
<v Speaker 3>have the way that teams get rid of their quarterbacks today,

0:43:10.320 --> 0:43:12.640
<v Speaker 3>twenty five years ago, if you would have let me

0:43:13.400 --> 0:43:17.080
<v Speaker 3>have opportunities to have Aaron Rodgers and get people like that,

0:43:17.320 --> 0:43:21.560
<v Speaker 3>or trade for or sign Kirk Cousins or something like that,

0:43:22.520 --> 0:43:25.680
<v Speaker 3>I might be still working in scouting. You know, that's

0:43:25.719 --> 0:43:28.120
<v Speaker 3>how hard it was twenty five years ago to find it,

0:43:28.160 --> 0:43:29.600
<v Speaker 3>because if you had one, you weren't letting them go.

0:43:29.800 --> 0:43:32.600
<v Speaker 3>That's exactly right, That's exactly right. A franchise got changed

0:43:32.640 --> 0:43:34.800
<v Speaker 3>in nineteen ninety nine, and the sixth round drafting a

0:43:34.880 --> 0:43:38.400
<v Speaker 3>quarterback New England Patriots. That's how lucky you have to

0:43:38.480 --> 0:43:40.839
<v Speaker 3>be sometimes, Yeah, and you might do that way here

0:43:40.920 --> 0:43:42.520
<v Speaker 3>with it. It might be that lucky with the guy

0:43:42.920 --> 0:43:44.560
<v Speaker 3>you drafted here several years ago.

0:43:44.680 --> 0:43:48.080
<v Speaker 6>Let's talk about threats. What is the biggest obstacle to

0:43:48.160 --> 0:43:49.279
<v Speaker 6>the success of this group.

0:43:52.080 --> 0:43:57.520
<v Speaker 3>Health. I'm gonna say health with the starting quarterback, that's

0:43:57.600 --> 0:44:00.239
<v Speaker 3>the thing. You just you know, he's been he made

0:44:00.239 --> 0:44:02.480
<v Speaker 3>it through last year. Fine, but we've dealt with some times.

0:44:02.560 --> 0:44:04.520
<v Speaker 3>Had on training camp we were all dealing with the

0:44:05.080 --> 0:44:07.200
<v Speaker 3>what's the shoulder thing he's dealing with. Let's you know,

0:44:07.320 --> 0:44:10.120
<v Speaker 3>there's the calf that you know, remember when his calf

0:44:10.200 --> 0:44:11.800
<v Speaker 3>got hurt. He was on such a run in the

0:44:11.840 --> 0:44:14.040
<v Speaker 3>New England game. You win that game in ot and

0:44:14.120 --> 0:44:16.960
<v Speaker 3>then after that it wasn't the same quarterback. I think

0:44:17.000 --> 0:44:19.399
<v Speaker 3>the only thing that slows this group down is health

0:44:20.160 --> 0:44:22.600
<v Speaker 3>if if in fact, that's that's if you want to

0:44:22.760 --> 0:44:23.160
<v Speaker 3>call it that.

0:44:23.880 --> 0:44:24.440
<v Speaker 10>The calendar.

0:44:25.600 --> 0:44:28.000
<v Speaker 7>I think the calendar is the biggest opposition for the

0:44:28.040 --> 0:44:31.120
<v Speaker 7>Cowboys quarterback and Dak Prescott obviously he's the lead horse,

0:44:31.120 --> 0:44:33.640
<v Speaker 7>so that's what we're talking about. But signing him, no,

0:44:33.960 --> 0:44:36.960
<v Speaker 7>not necessarily just that that also as well, but his

0:44:37.120 --> 0:44:40.400
<v Speaker 7>play during the regular season, more often than not, is phenomenal.

0:44:40.520 --> 0:44:43.200
<v Speaker 7>Over the course of his career, He's had his down moments, obviously,

0:44:43.440 --> 0:44:45.840
<v Speaker 7>but for the most part, he's He's elite. In the

0:44:45.880 --> 0:44:49.840
<v Speaker 7>regular season calendar flips to January. Yeah, what happens, So

0:44:50.000 --> 0:44:52.960
<v Speaker 7>for me, it's it. I don't know what that intangible is.

0:44:53.600 --> 0:44:56.680
<v Speaker 7>And again he Dak Prescott did not lose the game

0:44:56.760 --> 0:44:59.040
<v Speaker 7>for the Cowboys against the Packers. The defense did. You

0:44:59.160 --> 0:45:01.040
<v Speaker 7>just need Dak Prescott to save the day, and he

0:45:01.120 --> 0:45:03.480
<v Speaker 7>was unable to do that. But I think that this

0:45:03.640 --> 0:45:07.480
<v Speaker 7>quarterback group needs to figure out how to hit that

0:45:07.600 --> 0:45:09.880
<v Speaker 7>switch in January, or to at least keep that momentum

0:45:09.960 --> 0:45:12.480
<v Speaker 7>going from an excellent regular season and stop running into

0:45:12.560 --> 0:45:15.279
<v Speaker 7>that wall in January. There's like this wall waiting for

0:45:15.320 --> 0:45:17.480
<v Speaker 7>them in January, and until they break through, we're going

0:45:17.560 --> 0:45:19.239
<v Speaker 7>to keep having these these conversations.

0:45:19.960 --> 0:45:24.160
<v Speaker 8>I would say the word comedee, that word when I

0:45:24.239 --> 0:45:28.520
<v Speaker 8>hear when I hear it, it gives me bad flashbacks.

0:45:28.560 --> 0:45:31.120
<v Speaker 3>And this is not you saying the personnel around him

0:45:31.600 --> 0:45:32.040
<v Speaker 3>and this is.

0:45:32.040 --> 0:45:35.239
<v Speaker 8>Not specifical good to quarterback, but talking about the running game,

0:45:35.480 --> 0:45:37.880
<v Speaker 8>the running back. When I heard that word committee and

0:45:37.960 --> 0:45:40.960
<v Speaker 8>we know how important. Again we get focused on quarterback,

0:45:41.040 --> 0:45:43.480
<v Speaker 8>but it does affect you have to be able to

0:45:43.560 --> 0:45:44.600
<v Speaker 8>establish the run.

0:45:44.840 --> 0:45:45.640
<v Speaker 9>How are you going to do that?

0:45:45.760 --> 0:45:48.279
<v Speaker 8>You have to help your quarterback establishing the running not

0:45:48.480 --> 0:45:51.160
<v Speaker 8>just relighting the passing game. So as soon as I

0:45:51.239 --> 0:45:54.200
<v Speaker 8>heard the word committee, I'm like, will say what say what.

0:45:56.120 --> 0:46:01.360
<v Speaker 3>Committee? Mari Coop at first pick ome.

0:46:00.960 --> 0:46:01.600
<v Speaker 10>Yep, yep.

0:46:01.760 --> 0:46:03.360
<v Speaker 9>So something to keep an eye on.

0:46:03.560 --> 0:46:05.120
<v Speaker 6>I don't like here, you know, And I'll take that

0:46:05.200 --> 0:46:07.200
<v Speaker 6>even one step further. It's not just the running back

0:46:07.239 --> 0:46:10.360
<v Speaker 6>to me, ste inexperience on the offensive line combined with

0:46:10.560 --> 0:46:13.600
<v Speaker 6>this running back by committee not having a really established,

0:46:14.560 --> 0:46:18.040
<v Speaker 6>top notch, every down type running back. You combine those

0:46:18.080 --> 0:46:21.400
<v Speaker 6>two things, it's probably more on the shoulders of the

0:46:21.480 --> 0:46:22.520
<v Speaker 6>quarterback than it's.

0:46:22.400 --> 0:46:24.760
<v Speaker 2>Ever been in Dak Prescott's time here with the Cowboys.

0:46:25.360 --> 0:46:28.640
<v Speaker 6>Like he's always he since the moment he's got here,

0:46:28.960 --> 0:46:31.840
<v Speaker 6>he's always had a lead back that he could rely on.

0:46:32.160 --> 0:46:34.799
<v Speaker 6>He's for the most part, had a really good offensive line.

0:46:35.239 --> 0:46:36.719
<v Speaker 6>This is going to be the first year where he

0:46:36.840 --> 0:46:39.680
<v Speaker 6>could have a good offensive line. Maybe he couldn't, Like,

0:46:39.760 --> 0:46:41.640
<v Speaker 6>we don't know, because there's some new parts to that.

0:46:42.200 --> 0:46:45.320
<v Speaker 6>The running back back committee could work. Maybe it doesn't.

0:46:45.400 --> 0:46:47.239
<v Speaker 6>I think there are more question marks right now with

0:46:47.320 --> 0:46:50.120
<v Speaker 6>the surrounding cast of Dak Prescott Prescott than ever before

0:46:50.160 --> 0:46:52.120
<v Speaker 6>in his career, and that's why it's gonna be more

0:46:52.120 --> 0:46:54.880
<v Speaker 6>on his shoulders to see how much success this team get.

0:46:54.960 --> 0:46:57.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't think they'll get out of training camp without

0:46:57.480 --> 0:47:01.239
<v Speaker 3>an answer at running back. You mean another somebody that's

0:47:01.239 --> 0:47:03.400
<v Speaker 3>not on the rock. No, No, they're going to know.

0:47:03.600 --> 0:47:05.920
<v Speaker 3>They're not gonna let Committee go into week full gotcha.

0:47:06.239 --> 0:47:09.960
<v Speaker 3>They're going to say, you know what, we our offensive

0:47:10.000 --> 0:47:12.239
<v Speaker 3>lines approved, we're not getting to and through the line.

0:47:12.280 --> 0:47:14.719
<v Speaker 3>We don't have the explosive players we need to do better.

0:47:14.960 --> 0:47:17.160
<v Speaker 3>We're gonna have to ship a fifth round pick somewhere

0:47:17.200 --> 0:47:19.600
<v Speaker 3>to get a guy. Yeah, you know, whether it's surplus

0:47:19.680 --> 0:47:21.960
<v Speaker 3>at one of the other teams. I don't see them

0:47:22.040 --> 0:47:25.879
<v Speaker 3>going into week one being Committee running back. I think

0:47:25.920 --> 0:47:28.600
<v Speaker 3>they're going to find a way to establish either they're

0:47:28.600 --> 0:47:31.319
<v Speaker 3>gonna either it's gonna work, they're gonna find their guys here,

0:47:31.880 --> 0:47:33.440
<v Speaker 3>or they're gonna go get somebody. But I don't think

0:47:33.480 --> 0:47:35.279
<v Speaker 3>it's gonna get the Week four, week five like we

0:47:35.400 --> 0:47:38.560
<v Speaker 3>saw for a Marii Cooper. All Right, That is a wrap.

0:47:38.680 --> 0:47:41.120
<v Speaker 6>We'll be back next week and we'll go through our

0:47:41.160 --> 0:47:43.640
<v Speaker 6>position series again. We'll move on to the tight ends,

0:47:43.719 --> 0:47:45.640
<v Speaker 6>maybe get to running backs. We might even get the receivers.

0:47:45.680 --> 0:47:49.040
<v Speaker 6>We'll see until then for her, Patrick Walker, Brian Brodis,

0:47:49.080 --> 0:47:50.680
<v Speaker 6>Ambergras SI. I'm Derek Eiltz and this has been the
