Eventually the news about the 80 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 7: Cowboys going to Brazil broke later in that day that 81 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 7: I was there, But just everything about it. You just 82 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 7: have everyone that you kind of have worked with in 83 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 7: the NFL be there at the same time, and just 84 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 7: from even other teams and different industries. 85 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 8: It's just it was really cool to experience. 86 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 10: Yeah, I was very lucky to go to my second 87 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 10: Super Bowl. 88 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 5: Young man has already been to t Super Bowl. 89 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 10: Who emphasides on very lucky and thankful for the opportunity, but. 90 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 5: You get a great job, thank you. 91 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 10: I completely agree with Ambar. I think it's an awesome experience. 92 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 10: And you know, the great the thing about the Cowboys 93 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 10: is they're always relevant. There's always something going on, and 94 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 10: now that the Pro Bowl is the same week as 95 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 10: the Super Bowl and it's being held in the same city, 96 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 10: I think it incentivized is the reason for people to 97 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 10: go and be there because you know your players are 98 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 10: on hand and the Cowboys, your former players are on 99 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 10: hand and these players walk around Radio Row where there's 100 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 10: really content row now because there's so much more than 101 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 10: just radio and television setups. But it's it's always a 102 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 10: pleasure to go there and see some of these former players, 103 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 10: got to talk to Sean Lee, Darren Woodson was there, 104 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 10: and then the current players too, you know, George Pickens, 105 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 10: Dak Prescott, and the NFL Honors comes around later in 106 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 10: the week where you have two three players who were 107 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 10: up for awards, Salomon Thomas for a Man of the Year, 108 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 10: Dak Prescott for Comeback Player of the Year, and then 109 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,799 Speaker 10: Jake Ferguson for a salute service. And usually Jerry Jones 110 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 10: and the family are there every year as well. He 111 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 10: was there, talk to him a little bit on the 112 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 10: red carpet. So San Francisco was a great city. It 113 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 10: takes a lot to get around that city, but it 114 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 10: was definitely a lot of hills, Yeah, a lot of 115 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 10: hills and a lot of travel to navigate it. 116 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 4: But it was a really good time. 117 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 5: The r ug Oh yeah, I've heard none. 118 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 4: That we partook it for to clarify. 119 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 7: No, no, no, no, what we all doing. No, it's 120 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 7: just I mean you mentioned the city is just there's 121 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 7: a lot of that happening in the streets, and it's 122 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 7: just like it's sad. It's just very, very sad and 123 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 7: depressing to see the situation is in the hood. 124 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 6: It was like everywhere everywhere. 125 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, downtown can get a little can get a little dice. 126 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 5: Yet I mean they just this was just and obviously 127 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 5: this isn't a an indictment necessarily the city. But I 128 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 5: didn't another San Francisco player get get getting shot. I 129 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 5: thought another one last week, I think a week before 130 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 5: last or Francisco. I can't remember. I thought it was 131 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 5: in San Francisco, but I could be wrong. 132 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 10: He was shot in Keon White, Yeah, was shot in 133 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 10: the ankle after a reported altercation with little baby. 134 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 5: Huh, I ain't a little baby was well allegedly involved. 135 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 4: Man, I was not expecting. 136 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 5: I'm just saying, just saying, just just keep your head 137 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 5: on the swivel when you're just rolling around San Francisco, 138 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 5: you know. I guess no, but it sounded like it 139 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 5: was a great time. Tommy. I will ask you this. 140 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 5: I know you talked to a lot of different players, 141 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 5: former players, What was what if you had one one 142 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 5: specific thing that someone said or a specific person that 143 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 5: you talked to. Was one thing that really stood out 144 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 5: for you from from that week? 145 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 10: Well, I think my favorite conversation that I had was 146 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 10: with Shawn Lee, the former Cowboys linebacker, who is very 147 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 10: optimistic about the Cowboys fear. 148 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, I kind of I read that, Yeah, he's all in. 149 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 10: I think the the the quote that that kind of 150 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 10: made me me chuckle a little bit was you know 151 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 10: that he's he's thinking that there are going to be 152 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 10: a lot of guys on the I'm trying to find 153 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 10: exactly the one where he said this defense is going 154 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 10: to bounce back quick because the talent is there. I 155 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 10: don't know if I would necessarily agree with that fully, 156 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 10: but you know, he played for the Cowboys, he's going 157 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 10: to be optimistic. But he's just such a smart He 158 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 10: was a smart player during his time in Dallas, and 159 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 10: he's such a smart individual. What what I enjoyed the 160 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 10: most was I asked him what do you look for 161 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 10: in a linebacker? Like what makes the perfect linebacker? Because 162 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 10: that's obviously such a huge need that Dallas has. He 163 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 10: told me, from a standpoint of skill set, a guy 164 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 10: who's instincttional, a guy who's quick, a guy who loves 165 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 10: to hit, and then ultimately, from a leadership standpoint, a 166 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 10: guy who always leads from the front, he's preparing constantly, 167 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 10: who's trying to make his teammates better every day, and 168 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 10: who wants to compete every single day. That's not gonna 169 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 10: get you only a great linebacker. 170 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 4: It's gonna get you great players. 171 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 10: And one guy who pointed to I think this is 172 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 10: the spinning example of that, and I think we can 173 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 10: all agree is Dak Prescott, who you know, it's just constantly. 174 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 10: Guy's got in praise for his leadership ability over the years. 175 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 10: So I really enjoyed talking to Sean Lee for the 176 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 10: first time. 177 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 5: You know what's interesting about that that comment. I know 178 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 5: we kind of smirk when he's so optimistic. But I 179 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 5: heard someone saying this. I think it was on Sean 180 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 5: and ARJ this morning on the radio, and they were 181 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 5: talking about a mock draft that someone had done and 182 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 5: they'd mocked Sonny Styles to the Cowboys linebacker and the 183 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 5: person that mocked them to the Cowboys said that one 184 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 5: pick for the Cowboys would make them one of the 185 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 5: best front sevens in the NFL. And at first I 186 00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,479 Speaker 5: was like, really. 187 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 6: That's exactly what he was thinking, and that's what he's thinking. 188 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 5: But then I started thinking about it, I was like, 189 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 5: they got some really good defensive tackles. That's what Sean 190 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 5: over shown is a really good linebacker. If he can 191 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,359 Speaker 5: stay healthy at that point, if you can get yourself 192 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 5: maybe a pass rush or something, just bring back Clowney. 193 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 5: Expect that Azaraku's gonna take a next step. Like I 194 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 5: don't know if i'd say best in the NFL. They 195 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 5: certainly become competitive. So to that point, I don't know 196 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 5: that I disagree that this defense isn't like, let's not 197 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 5: even talk about a second. I think they got a 198 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 5: lot of work to do in the secondary. But you 199 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 5: look at that front seven, One or two players could 200 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 5: turn that thing around and make that thing pretty good. 201 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 5: Right Sean Lee. 202 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 9: Was an All Pro with Joey Ivy in front of him, 203 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 9: you know what I mean, Like he was going crazy 204 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 9: if it with with no defensive tackle helping front. 205 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 5: Of Shank can stay healthy, if she could have been 206 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 5: one of the great he could be like Luke. He 207 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 5: was that kind of player, he really was. 208 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 9: He was that kind of guy, and I just imagine 209 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 9: what he would be like with this with this front 210 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 9: with these tackles that we have now. So I guess 211 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,959 Speaker 9: and Sean Lee's mind, he's saying, hey, man, if you 212 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 9: get a linebacker, they can and I'm gonna say nothing 213 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 9: about the coach, don't work it no more. But if 214 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 9: you can fix those things with this, like you build 215 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 9: defense in the middle, you know what I mean, and 216 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 9: you start with Quinn Williams and company, that's a fantastic start. 217 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 4: I think you're off to a good start. 218 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 10: I think there's way too many ifs because you have 219 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 10: if sit pass rusher, you have if sit linebacker, because 220 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,559 Speaker 10: who knows if Overstown is going to be the same 221 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 10: thing that he was now, he's got what two major 222 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 10: knee knee surgeries, So it's would stunny. Would Sonny Styles 223 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 10: help a lot? Absolutely, I mean no doubt about it. 224 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 10: But even still, I think you would need some guys 225 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 10: I've always stood on the tail for they just don't 226 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 10: have good pass rushers. They don't have good defensive ends 227 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 10: right now. Donovan Azaraku really is the only one that 228 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 10: I think is has a bright future. Sure, Jadavian Clowney 229 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 10: is good for now, but you know he's getting He's 230 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 10: not getting any younger and how much are you going 231 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 10: to be willing to pay him in free agency if 232 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 10: he's you know, maybe asking for for more than he should. 233 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 10: So I think there are too many ifs a way 234 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 10: to say, Okay, this is definitively one of the better 235 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 10: front sevens in the NFL. But I think you're right 236 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 10: that you know, a couple of players can start to 237 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:08,199 Speaker 10: change that. 238 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 5: What I would what I would counter that with is 239 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 5: you look at the teams that were just in the 240 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 5: Super Bowl. You look at a lot of teams that 241 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 5: were in the playoffs this year. Strengths of their defenses 242 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 5: weren't necessarily the pass rushers, defensive tackles, and that's an 243 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 5: area where the Cowboys I think are really strong, maybe 244 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 5: among the better teams in the NFL. Question is can 245 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 5: you get the right complementary parts around them linebacker, defensive end, 246 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 5: get some pressure from there. But make no mistake about it, 247 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 5: I think the NFL has changed a bit, and you 248 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 5: hear quarterbacks say it all the time. I'd much rather 249 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 5: deal with a guy coming around the outside than have 250 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 5: to deal with somebody, you know, collapsing the pocket from 251 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 5: the inside. And so I do think that you know 252 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 5: you can get by with pretty good defensive ends. I 253 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 5: think you got to have great defensive tackles. 254 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 10: Let me clarify that a little bit. I think you 255 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 10: need a good pass rush in general. 256 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: There you go. 257 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 4: I'm with you on that. 258 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 10: Seahawks have six sacks in the Super Bowl. Pictriers didn't 259 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 10: stand a chain. Yeah, and their defense was just terrorizing everybody, 260 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 10: and no doubt, but the Patriots did the same thing. I mean, 261 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 10: you look at Kylevon Chason, who was a fantastic player 262 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 10: in college and you had struggles to start in the NFL. 263 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 10: All of a sudden just explodes onto the scene this year. 264 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 10: So you're right, you don't necessarily need those top end 265 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 10: defensive ends, but you need a good pass rush. And 266 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 10: the Cowboys did not have a good pass run last year, 267 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 10: even despite the talent that they did have at defensive tackle. 268 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 10: So I think that's if they can develop that, then 269 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 10: we're talking about. Okay, this is a better front seven, 270 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 10: because that makes everything easier for your linebackers, and that 271 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 10: makes everything easier for your secondary toms. 272 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 9: Let me ask you this and everybody at the table. 273 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 9: Uchenna Nuosu boy, my Fey Tank Lawrence. Of course, he 274 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 9: was here for a long time and Derek Hale. That's 275 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 9: their edge, guys. You know what I mean in Seattle. 276 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 9: In Seattle, I don't get on paper. I don't get 277 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 9: fear from those guys. Now when you say Byron Murphy, 278 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 9: Lenna Williams and some of the guys, that was insiary. 279 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 9: That's why I think it starts. I don't want to 280 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 9: say nobody's name that don't work it no more. That's 281 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 9: my New Year's resolution, Brad. But you're just always gonna 282 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 9: say I'm not gonna say anything brash, and I'm not 283 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 9: gonna stop. We tapped your hand a little bit, young man. 284 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 9: Sit down, bright listen. I still would like to know. 285 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 9: And I've said this on this show before. I'm just 286 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 9: gonna keep saying it again. But I said it in 287 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 9: different ways. I just wonder who on this team could play, 288 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 9: but because of the circumstances, they just didn't get the 289 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 9: best out of those players. 290 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 5: Right. 291 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,079 Speaker 9: We just can't assume that all these guys are bad. 292 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 9: I ain't saying you saying this. I'm just saying, like 293 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 9: the general, we're looking at the Cowboys Ross and we're going, oh, well, 294 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 9: we need seven starters because this guy can't play. I 295 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 9: don't believe that. I don't believe that I was watching 296 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 9: what's my Man's play? Josh Joe. Josh Josh Joe wasn't 297 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 9: crazy coming out of Alabama. He wasn't drafted super high, 298 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 9: he hasn't built this big profile. But Josh Joe made 299 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 9: a ton of plays in context of that scheme. I 300 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 9: think you got guys on this team right now. Of 301 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 9: course we want to go and get as much talent 302 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 9: as we can, but you got guys on this team 303 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 9: right now that can make plays in context of a 304 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 9: better show. 305 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 7: There are a lot of guys that we know for 306 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 7: a fact can play because we've seen it seen in 307 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 7: the previous years. Now, where it sucks is for those 308 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 7: younger players that you don't really have a really good 309 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 7: evaluation on them because they were not placed in a 310 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 7: position where they can thrive. So just in general, everyone 311 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 7: on the defense did not have a good performance all 312 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 7: year round. So I think that's where it hurts you 313 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 7: a little bit with the younger talent, that maybe you 314 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 7: have those guys down in the position depth chart and 315 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 7: you have question marks around them and you're like, Okay, 316 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 7: well we don't really know where they're at because based 317 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 7: on the performance they put on tape. 318 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 8: It's just not good. But nobody else's performance was good. 319 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 5: I look at teams like Seattle, I look at teams 320 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 5: like Minnesota. You might even want to throw New England 321 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 5: in there, as teams that their defenses were pretty good, good, 322 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 5: if not really good. And you look across you just 323 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 5: look at the names and it's like the names don't 324 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 5: necessarily match up with how good the defense was. And 325 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 5: even in the Super Bowl, I think a lot of 326 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 5: those sacks came from situations. There wasn't a lot of 327 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 5: just four man pressures like they will bring in guys 328 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 5: and it will bring them all over the place, and 329 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 5: I just don't think I think they got in May's head. 330 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 5: He had no idea where the pressure was coming from. 331 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 5: And before you knew what was in his face and 332 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 5: he had nothing, He couldn't do anything with it. And 333 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 5: so I believe the scheme matters. And so I think 334 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 5: the best thing, the most important and impactful thing the 335 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 5: Cowboys can do this offseason will be the higher the 336 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 5: right defensive coach. Sure we will see if that that's 337 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 5: Christian Parker, but that to me is the most important thing, 338 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 5: because that's that's one thing this NFL season has shown 339 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 5: me is you can get great defense with pretty good 340 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 5: players if you've got the right guy calling the play. 341 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 10: And the NFL now defensively is such an exotic pressure. 342 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 10: You know, different kinds of looks and where you're making 343 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 10: quarterbacks pre snap not really know what the pressure is 344 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 10: going to be. So you need to send pressure from 345 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 10: all different kinds of places, and you need to rotate 346 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 10: in the secondary, which is what Christian Parker does. There's 347 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 10: a lot of Cover three stuff in Philly where you 348 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 10: start with two high safeties, but they can roll in 349 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 10: all kinds of different ways. That's how you win in 350 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 10: the NFL now defensively, you can't do the cookie cutter 351 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 10: stuff on defense where it's you know, four man Russias 352 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 10: every play, and that's not a distant folks who are 353 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 10: doing that, But that's just Quarterbacks are way too good 354 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 10: nowadays at the here's my first three. If it's there, 355 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 10: I'm throwing it. If it's not, I'm throwing to two. 356 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 10: If it's not, I'm throwing to three. 357 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 6: Time. He's so smart. 358 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 9: Seattle Pool there outside of corner, line them up at 359 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 9: nickel and blist him in b gap. I don't want 360 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 9: to talk about it. Nobody don't work here. 361 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 5: Yeah I saw it. 362 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we would never. 363 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 5: That's crazy, we would never. 364 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 6: Yep. So fantastic point. 365 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 4: At the same point, Wetherspoon's is a little bit different. 366 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 6: He's a sure, he's a he's a good but that's 367 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 6: also taking. 368 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 5: But that's the talent that you have in creating these moments. 369 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 5: Like most most most teams, or I shouldn't say most, 370 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 5: there are probably a lot of defensive coordinators out there 371 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 5: that would say, he's my best corn. I'm gonna keep 372 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 5: going outside. I shouldn't do all this other stuff, but 373 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 5: I'm gonna keep on the outside. The fact that they're 374 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 5: willing to think, hey, what if what if we put 375 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 5: in there and we actually blitzed him through the B gap? 376 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 5: Like he's fast, he's got a good rush, let's try it, 377 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 5: and then you get good results on it. I'm just saying, 378 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 5: like I think it matters in today's NFL game, how 379 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 5: you can scheme your players in order to get them home, because, 380 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 5: as you said, it's not so much the pass rusher, 381 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 5: it's the pass rush that's the most important. Can you 382 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 5: can you manufacture a pass rush? And I think that's 383 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 5: and that's way more sustainable than having one or two 384 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 5: great pass rushers on your team. 385 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 9: Yeah, maybe, Donald, it made a lot of sense that 386 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 9: he noticed that he was playing against a young quarterback 387 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 9: that had trouble processing what was going on, and he 388 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,239 Speaker 9: kept doing some of that stuff. He didn't just let 389 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 9: the young quarterback think and sit around all day and 390 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 9: throw the football all day. 391 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 6: I thought that was a briaging. 392 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 5: Move by him, and kept throwing different things at it 393 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 5: different It was all kinds of guys coming at different 394 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 5: moments from different angles, different places. 395 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 2: It was. 396 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 5: I thought the story of that game really was my 397 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 5: Donald right. 398 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 10: Here, right on the broadcast, that he's the first defense 399 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 10: a play caller as a head coach to win a 400 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 10: Super Bowl. 401 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 4: Did I hear that right? That has to be That 402 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 4: didn't sound right. 403 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 5: But if that is, well, Bill Belichick was a defensive guy. 404 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 4: Was he a play caller? 405 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 2: Oh? 406 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 5: You mean like was actually the defensive like he. 407 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 10: Is calling the defense? And please correct me if I'm wrong. 408 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 10: I got to no issue being wrong. 409 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 4: Maybe as a young manless. 410 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 5: I'm trying to think back. I don't I don't know that, 411 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 5: I don't. 412 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 4: Know that was a beautiful play. 413 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 3: Car. 414 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 5: I don't.

All right, let's talk about George Pickens. There 483 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 5: was a lot of talk last week about him in 484 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 5: his contract. I think George said at one point in 485 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 5: an interview he's hoping for the best and love to 486 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 5: stay here in Dallas. He's maintained that during the season 487 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 5: and the off season. I know, Tommy, you talked to Jerry, 488 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 5: and Jerry made it clear that he wants him to 489 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 5: be a cowboy. I think Steven has also said the same, 490 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 5: They want me to be a cowboy. And then the 491 00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 5: report came out, which I don't think was a surprise anybody, 492 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 5: because that's just the nature of how NFL business works 493 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 5: and free agency.

Then NFL 519 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 7: Honors at the red carpet, Tommy got a chance to 520 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 7: talk to Jerry and he gave a quote and I 521 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 7: was looking at the article and translating it for some 522 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 7: most cowboys. 523 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 8: As I'm translating, I'm like. 524 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 7: Okay, Jerry said he's looking forward to start the conversation 525 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 7: with the doing the negotiation, and I was just like, 526 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 7: it stopped me for a second and got me confused 527 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 7: because I'm like, what do you mean to start? So 528 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 7: like in my head, this is already happening weeks ago. 529 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 7: Like I'm thinking this is these are conversations that are 530 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 7: already in the works. And when I heard that specific comment, 531 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 7: to me personally, it stood out in the sense of. 532 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 8: What are we doing? 533 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 3: Why? 534 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 8: Why? 535 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 7: Why has this not come like, what do you mean 536 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 7: starting a conversation and it hasn't happened just yet. 537 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 6: But they had meant to do what Darek was talking about. 538 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:11,719 Speaker 10: I know nothing, Well, gohead, I'm not it's CD and 539 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 10: then he's gonna get into the franchise. 540 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 5: This is a fair question, and it can lead to his. 541 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 4: It is a fair question. 542 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 10: And what I would say is I'm not here to 543 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 10: tell you what negotiated Asian strategies right or wrong. But 544 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 10: typically in these situations, this is across the NFL. The 545 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,919 Speaker 10: NFL Combine, which is coming up in two weeks, is 546 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 10: usually the starting ground to have those initial contradition talks, 547 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 10: especially with bigger deals, because compline is everybody in the 548 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 10: NFL is there. You've got three hundred and thirty something 549 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 10: players I think who got invited today, so their agents 550 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 10: are going to be all the represents, you know, executives 551 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 10: will be there, head coaches will be there so everybody. 552 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 10: It's kind of just a massive conglomerate to people that 553 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 10: all get together. 554 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 5: It's a football convention. 555 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, essentially it's a football. 556 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 8: It sounds great. 557 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 7: I hear what you're saying, because that's kind of where 558 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 7: these conversations start happening at the combine. But my perspective 559 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 7: is based on recent history of how things kind of 560 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 7: have gone downhill. 561 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 8: I would be if it was me. Again, I'm not 562 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 8: in that role. 563 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 7: I don't know how those things work, but if it 564 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 7: was me, based on what recently occurred, let's say with 565 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 7: even Mica, I would start as soon as possible, because 566 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 7: you know, you know that's happening, Like, you know that 567 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 7: his his deal is up. He's about to become a 568 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 7: free agent. Do you either do the franchise or go 569 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 7: into a longer deal. You know that's gonna happen. So 570 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 7: I'm just curious, like why not get it started a 571 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 7: lot earlier. 572 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 10: Like I said, I wasn't here to tell you what 573 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 10: was right or wrong, but they're going to put the 574 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 10: tag on him so that they have the time to 575 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,239 Speaker 10: do so and be the ability to nobody else can 576 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 10: negotiate with him at that point and they're also I 577 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 10: feel like they're going to explore all options. I'm not 578 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 10: saying they're going to move George Pickens, but that is 579 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 10: something that's on the table. Right if if they say, look, 580 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 10: do we want to do we have so many needs 581 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,479 Speaker 10: on defense that we feel like we need draft capital 582 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 10: from this. My counter to that to be, and we 583 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 10: talked about this on the Draft showt yesterday, You're probably 584 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 10: not going to get much in return for George Pickens. 585 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 5: Maybe a second round pick, and DK metcalf went for 586 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 5: second and seventh and then you trade flip six. 587 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 4: That's not a lot exactly. So is it worth it? 588 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 8: Because now your answer is bleeding into Derek's question. 589 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 4: We're gonna. 590 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 5: So here's the question. So here's the question. If Dallas 591 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 5: does use his franchise, which we think we would suspect 592 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 5: they will, what do you think is more likely outcome 593 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 5: that they're using it to protect their rights and to 594 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 5: keep him at from going into free agency, or two 595 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 5: they want to get another year without committing to a 596 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 5: long term deal. Or three they want they want to 597 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 5: look the option of possibly trading. 598 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 10: I think it's option one. I don't think they want 599 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 10: to let him go in free agency. I highly doubt 600 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 10: George Pickens would play on the tag. I just don't 601 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 10: see that's. 602 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,719 Speaker 5: How does that work though, because here's the deal. It's 603 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 5: one thing not to show up at training camp. It's 604 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 5: a whole different thing when you get into the season 605 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 5: and the games. Are you saying he would sit out 606 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 5: a full year if that were the case? 607 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 10: No, I'm saying there's going to be a deal done 608 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 10: before the season, and George pickensill. 609 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 5: Well with the franchise tag. I think in the deadline, 610 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 5: I think July fifteenth to have a deal before you 611 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 5: can actually like that's the deadline to have a franchise 612 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 5: tag player get a long term deal. I would expect 613 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 5: there to be a deal done before July fifteenth. 614 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, as things stand right now. 615 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 10: Obviously everything like things change so quickly with with Mike 616 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 10: after the combine, it seemed like because it seemed like 617 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 10: just kind of done deal what mbar was talking about. 618 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 4: You know, what are we waiting for? 619 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 10: I would expects, as things currently stand, that both sides 620 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 10: get to a deal before then they're going to. 621 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 4: Use the tag. 622 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 10: Initially that that you mentioned the report that wasn't really 623 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 10: it's not, but I think they get a deal done 624 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 10: before then. I think they recognize how different this offense 625 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 10: can be with two number one receivers. 626 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 7: I absolutely agree with the tag. I think that's kind 627 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 7: of the way it's going to go down. They're going 628 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 7: to tag him and then get that contract going and 629 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 7: try to work something out. 630 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 8: However, I'm not quite sure on. 631 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 7: The timing of that, because yes, it sounds good, but 632 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 7: we've seen it already. We've seen it that sometimes these 633 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 7: conversations don't happen very quickly, like these deals don't always 634 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 7: get done very quickly, and I don't want to go 635 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 7: into a situation where he's not here during the offseason workouts, 636 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 7: which yes, he's proven to be what he is. We 637 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 7: saw it last year, but that's something that's also very 638 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 7: very important to be a part of these workouts and 639 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 7: be around the team, and it just can create this whole. 640 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 8: Dilemma. But we saw it with obviously Micah, we've. 641 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 7: Seen it with CD two, and I do think it, 642 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 7: like because you said the July so we're that's before 643 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 7: starting training. 644 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 5: Right the way I understand it, you can't go into 645 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 5: training camp with there a possibility of him still getting 646 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 5: a deal. He will either have a deal by then, 647 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 5: or he won't have a deal and he'll have a 648 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 5: franchise tag, and then it's just a situation of is 649 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 5: he gonna play on that tag or is he going 650 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 5: to sit out? And the most players I've never seen 651 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 5: a player sit out for Le'Veon Bill maybe the only 652 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 5: guy I've ever seen do that. So again, there is. 653 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 7: A possibility based on like on looking at the other 654 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,719 Speaker 7: hand of the other side, is that he could potentially 655 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 7: not even participate in training camp. 656 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 5: Right, No, the only way he wouldn't participate it well, 657 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 5: the only way he wouldn't participate in camp is if 658 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 5: he's basically saying I'm gonna sit out, which I don't 659 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 5: know how that affects the money, And that's a question 660 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 5: we can figure out of does he get like is 661 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 5: he getting fined for all that time? Is he's missing 662 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 5: if he doesn't sign his franchise tag, or he's still 663 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 5: considered like unsigned to a franchise like I don't know 664 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 5: how that worked. 665 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 10: I think I would think he would probably have to 666 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 10: do what Micah did last year, where he didn't participate 667 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 10: but he he did a hold in, or he was there, 668 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 10: he was present with the team, but he wasn't participating it. 669 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 5: But that wasn't a franchise tax situation, wasn't it. 670 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 10: No, I'm just saying, but that was a you know, 671 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,959 Speaker 10: pending kind of contract situation where maybe it's the same thing, 672 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 10: maybe it's not. 673 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 5: I have no idea, right, I guess the difference for 674 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 5: me here is it's not like he can go to 675 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 5: camp and then get a deal done. You will know 676 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 5: by the time you get the training camp whether he's 677 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 5: getting a new deal or not. And so if he's 678 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 5: sitting out, then it's just his own protest of I 679 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 5: didn't get it. 680 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 7: But again, to be clear, franchise tage money is really 681 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 7: good money. 682 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,719 Speaker 5: What's the top it's the average the top five at 683 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 5: the position for a year. He doesn't give you long 684 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 5: term security, but for the year you get paid. I 685 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 5: mean it's a lot of money for a year, right, 686 00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 5: I mean, you know there have been guys who have 687 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 5: made a career getting franchise tags. You know, Kirk Cousins 688 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 5: has made a ton of money getting franchise tags. But 689 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 5: it's no long term security in it, you know, right. 690 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 10: And I think that would be the hold up with Pickens, 691 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 10: because obviously you want that. Yeah, Second, contract is what 692 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 10: so many NFL players strive for, and I think frankly, 693 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 10: he's earned it. And you know, again, this can all 694 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 10: change in a heartbeat. I think it did with Micah 695 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 10: because we were at the same time last year. I'll 696 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 10: sitting here saying, yeah, this is it's gonna have only 697 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 10: a matter of time, and it made so much sense. 698 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 10: And you know, right now Pickens makes a ton of sense. 699 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 10: And it's a question of, you know, how much do 700 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 10: we have on offense money wise, because a majority of 701 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 10: their cap is going to be on offense. If they 702 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 10: they've paid Dak, they've paid CD, they've paid Tyler Smith, 703 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 10: they've paid Jake Ferguson, They're probably going to pay Devonte Williams, 704 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 10: and now you're probably going to pay George Pickens too. 705 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 4: What does that say about their defense? 706 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 10: And so that's why I think you can see things 707 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 10: changing on a dime. But I think the other big 708 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 10: difference here is Mike Approach last year, if we're just 709 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 10: comparing the situations, was much more hands on in his negotiations, 710 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 10: whereas George Pickens told us the pro Boy, He's. 711 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 4: Like, yeah, my agent's got that. I'm ANNs off. 712 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 10: I'm not I'm not dealing with any of that, and 713 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 10: you know, I'm letting my agent take care of it. 714 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 4: Does that make the process easier? Maybe? Does it make 715 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 4: it more difficult? Also? Maybe? Yeah, so a lot of 716 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 4: We'll see. 717 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 10: But as things currently stand, like I said, I think 718 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 10: they tagg him initially and they get a deal done 719 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 10: before camp. 720 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,959 Speaker 5: Real quick, before we go to break Botch. Tell me, 721 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 5: of those three options, what do you think is more. 722 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 9: Likely more than likely? Shout out to Ambart who she's 723 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 9: She's right again. You know what I'm saying. I just 724 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 9: I don't want the jones Is to come in this 725 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 9: thing and try to win the negotiation. 726 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 6: You know what I mean. 727 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 9: I don't want them to be like well, deadlines make deals. 728 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 9: But man, let's just all be happy, man, you know 729 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 9: what I'm saying.

I want each 829 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 5: of you to just quickly. You don't have to give 830 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 5: me an explanation. Do you think George Pickens will end 831 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 5: up getting the top wide receiver money in the NFL? 832 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 5: Top five or top ten or below that? Where do 833 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 5: you think he will land when this deal is said 834 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 5: and done in the NFL? 835 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 8: In the NFL, whether or not with the Cowboys? 836 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 5: Right, I'm saying, just when it's all said, if he's 837 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 5: gonna be with the Cowboys or if he's gonna be 838 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 5: somewhere else, is he going to be the top guy? 839 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 5: Is he going to be top five? Is he going 840 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 5: to be top ten? Or is he gonna below that? 841 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 9: I think like five or six makes sense. I don't 842 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 9: think they're going to make him higher than Justin Jefferson 843 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,239 Speaker 9: or like J mar Chase or something like that. I 844 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 9: think the CD Lamb thing is something that Mulagea can 845 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 9: use against him. 846 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 6: Hey, look at what he did. 847 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 11: You know. 848 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 9: I think he can have that conversation. But I don't 849 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 9: think they'll let George get higher than four. So I'm 850 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 9: thinking five. 851 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 4: Top five, two, I'd say top five. 852 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 5: Okay, Now I was hopeful you guys would say that, yeah, 853 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 5: because here's the conversation that. 854 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 8: We need to have got chall where I want saying. 855 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 5: I think this is a conversation we have to make 856 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 5: team Derek. Do you think it's smart roster construction when 857 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 5: you start thinking about the fact that there is not 858 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 5: a single team in the NFL that has two receivers 859 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,879 Speaker 5: that are in the top ten in salary per year, 860 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 5: average per year. You have several teams that have two 861 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 5: guys in the top twenty. Nobody has two in the 862 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 5: top ten. And on top of that, your quarterback is 863 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,319 Speaker 5: the top. As I said before, he is the top 864 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 5: paid quarterback by five million. It's not even close. He's 865 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 5: at sixty million. The next closest guys at fifty five. 866 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:37,280 Speaker 5: On a defense that we saw last year, what you get? 867 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 5: Are you willing to sacrifice even more of your resources 868 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 5: on an offense and do something nobody in the NFL 869 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 5: is doing when you know you got to fix your defense. 870 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 9: The Super Bowl winner dictates the rules. Yep, the winner 871 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 9: dictates the rules. If you win with Nick Foles, not 872 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 9: everybody going, hey man, we could possibly win without a Superstarques. 873 00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 9: If the Cowboys go out there and do they thing, 874 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 9: the next big wave is about to be you need 875 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 9: two receivers. The Eagles one with I don't know what 876 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 9: their money situation was like, but like the Eagles had 877 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:08,360 Speaker 9: two top tieries, two. 878 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 2: Top twenty, top twenty. Yeah hit. 879 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 5: I think dk not dk AJ is in the top 880 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 5: ten and DeVante is in the top twenty. I think 881 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 5: he's like sixteen or seventeen. 882 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 6: Okay, that's phenomenal for them. 883 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 5: And by the way, here's some teams. I'll give you 884 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 5: some examples. Here's some teams that are paying that kind 885 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 5: of money. You've got Miami who has two in the 886 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 5: top twenty. Horrible defense. You got Cincinnati who has two 887 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 5: in the top twenty. Horrible defense. You got Detroit. Detroit, 888 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 5: although they don't have a horrible defense, their defenses has 889 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 5: been part of the reason why they haven't quite been 890 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 5: able to get to some of the places they're trying 891 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 5: to go. So you do have to give something up 892 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:43,399 Speaker 5: in order to do that, and they are I think 893 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,359 Speaker 5: our team that's very heavy when it comes to their 894 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:48,359 Speaker 5: resources on the offensive side of the ball. And then 895 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,760 Speaker 5: you've got Philadelphia who has two in the top twenty. 896 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,919 Speaker 10: Yeah, well did cataporn don't have to Detroit as they've 897 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 10: been decimated by injuries on. 898 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 5: Absolutely their best defensive player has been out. 899 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 10: I think if you're the Cowboys, you're hoping to follow 900 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:07,360 Speaker 10: two blueprints. The Bengals are the Lions. Because the Lions 901 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,879 Speaker 10: we talked about, you know, they have defensive players, it's 902 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 10: just they can't stay on the field. At the same time, Cincinnati, 903 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,720 Speaker 10: remember they went to Super Bowl. Granted it was when 904 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 10: I think T Higgins and Jamar were still on their 905 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 10: rookie deal. 906 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, they were not making the money to make now. 907 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 5: But and they had a better defense at that point. 908 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,280 Speaker 5: Their defense was much better than it is now. 909 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:25,879 Speaker 4: Much better, and not by a lot. I don't think 910 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 4: they were all. 911 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,400 Speaker 5: Right now right now. Cincinnati and total defense I think. 912 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,320 Speaker 4: Was thirty oh much better than horrible. Yeah, they're terrible. 913 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 5: They're like the Cowboys as far as. 914 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,520 Speaker 10: They were not a You look at Cincinnati and say, 915 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:38,879 Speaker 10: oh my gosh, no, no, But that's my point. 916 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, My point is when you're dedicating that many resources 917 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,400 Speaker 5: to quarterback and two wide receivers, is this what you 918 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 5: get on defense as opposed to back when they were 919 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 5: still on those rookie deals, they could afford to have 920 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 5: a much better defense. 921 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 4: What you need is the inverse. If you're going to 922 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 4: pay your offensive guys. 923 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 10: You need to hit on rookies and young players or 924 00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 10: find some gems in free agency on defense, because if 925 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 10: you can't do that, then it's gonna make it really tough. 926 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:03,279 Speaker 2: Is that? 927 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 5: Is that good roster constraint? Is that a good plan? 928 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 4: Though? 929 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:08,879 Speaker 5: Because again, what we've seen in the NFL right now 930 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 5: is playing good defense is the way to win a championship? 931 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 2: Right? 932 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 4: Is it the textbook plan? No? But does that mean 933 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 4: and it can't necessarily work? Also? No, but I do 934 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 4: think it makes it much more difficult. 935 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 9: Let me ask the table this, Sorry, Chad, let me 936 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 9: ask the table this. Let's live in Lila Land for 937 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 9: two seconds. Don't worry about Cowboys defense. How do you 938 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 9: think the Cowboys offense currently constructed? How do you think 939 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 9: the Cowboy offense fares against the Seattle defense and the 940 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 9: Patriots defense in a Super Bowl situation a hypothetical virtual 941 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 9: Super Bowl situes? Do you think that the Cowboys offense 942 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 9: currently constructed could put up points on those defenses? 943 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,720 Speaker 5: I don't think crazy points. I don't think they're hitting thirty. 944 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 4: I could see him hitting thirty. 945 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 6: I think I think they can hit thirty. 946 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,319 Speaker 5: Let me ask you. We saw some games this year 947 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 5: wasn't offense. The offense didn't didn't put up a lot 948 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,800 Speaker 5: of points. Get some better defense, like against Minnesota what happened, 949 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 5: Like there have been some good defenses they play against 950 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 5: Denver when they played good defense this year this year, Now, 951 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 5: that doesn't mean the offense goes to nothing, but it 952 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,120 Speaker 5: ain't what it usually is. And that's my point. 953 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,080 Speaker 9: I think that this Cowboys I was just watching, like 954 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 9: Drake may or whatever, right, some of the things that 955 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 9: Seattle was doing to Drake May, I was like, man, 956 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 9: they'll never do at the Dack. Dak would know what 957 00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 9: to do versus that, or with Sam. Sam Darnold and 958 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 9: Drake May are limited in certain places that Dak is not. 959 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 9: Christian Gunzalees locked up Jackson and jig he got hurt, 960 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 9: locked up Cooper Cup and that Seattle offense looked a 961 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 9: little weird for a second. 962 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 5: Right, the run game was what got him. 963 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 9: You would have to do that totally different with Pickens 964 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 9: and Lamb. The Cowboys just not in the Super Bowl, 965 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 9: so we just haven't seen that. I think the Cowboys 966 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 9: offense currently constructed. I think it'll be foolish to assume 967 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 9: that Pickens can go away and we can find similar production. 968 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 9: Because if you're gonna win a championship is gonna have 969 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 9: to be through that. It's gonna have to be through four. 970 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 9: I want him to be as comfortable as as as 971 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 9: he could possible. 972 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 5: Okay, so here's the question for sure. What were the 973 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 5: things that Minnesota let's talk about Minnesota and Denver. What 974 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,760 Speaker 5: were the things they did defensively to slow down this offense? 975 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 6: Tell me what they do it? 976 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 4: That was a long time. 977 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,240 Speaker 10: Denver was just They've got eleven dudes on the field, 978 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 10: and I think their their defensive line was getting home. 979 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:29,800 Speaker 10: That was a bad game for the offensive line. Certain 980 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 10: didn't really even play that much because he. 981 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 4: Was getting hanged up. Yeah, so it was more just 982 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 4: up front. 983 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 10: It was it was upfront, and I think I really 984 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 10: think that opening drive where they get to pick from 985 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,839 Speaker 10: Trequise bridges on, like the third play of the game, 986 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 10: drive down the field, get to the one, and they 987 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 10: just get stuffed. That told you like, Okay, they just 988 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,399 Speaker 10: can't win in the trenches, and this is a trench league. 989 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 10: When you can't win there, it's it's gonna be struggle. 990 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:57,640 Speaker 10: That's what would give me fits about Seattle. Talking about 991 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 10: Super Bowl teams. What wouldn't give me is what you said, 992 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:03,879 Speaker 10: where a lot of the younger player mistakes that Drake 993 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 10: May made is not something that you would expect Dak 994 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:07,080 Speaker 10: Prescott to make. 995 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 4: So that gives me hope that, Okay, you could see. 996 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 10: This offense if they're playing their best and they're in 997 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:15,480 Speaker 10: rhythm and they're clicking, score thirty points. But at the 998 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,359 Speaker 10: same time, and we'll get to see this next year 999 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:19,080 Speaker 10: at some point because they play the Seahawks and they're 1000 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 10: going to bring a lot of the same guys back. 1001 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 10: There were way too many instances this year where you 1002 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,000 Speaker 10: look at this team and you say, this offense is 1003 00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 10: way too good to only put up nineteen eighteen points 1004 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 10: in this game or whatever the point total was. 1005 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 5: But when did that typically happen. It happened when they 1006 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 5: were playing. 1007 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 4: Yeah, when they were playing much better. 1008 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 5: And again that's not And I know you say those 1009 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 5: are eleven dudes in Denver. I believe that a lot 1010 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 5: of those eleven dudes are dudes that are in a 1011 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 5: great scheme and a great fit for them. That makes 1012 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 5: them dud. I don't know if you put those guys, 1013 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 5: If you put those guys on the Cowboys last year. 1014 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 5: I don't think they would have played in the same way. 1015 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 5: Maybe Stan because Certan's just different, sure, but I don't 1016 00:44:57,760 --> 00:44:59,400 Speaker 5: think a lot of those guys would have I think 1017 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 5: Minnesota's another great prime example. I don't think that those 1018 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 5: are dudes. I think they had a good game plan 1019 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 5: and a good scheme, and it started with the trenches. 1020 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,279 Speaker 5: They were not gonna let the Cowboys run on them. 1021 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 5: And because they couldn't run on them, then they could 1022 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 5: use those resources on the back end to take care 1023 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:15,839 Speaker 5: of those two wide receivers. And yeah, you might give 1024 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:17,879 Speaker 5: up some yards, but at the end of the day, 1025 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 5: they weren't giving up nearly the points that the Cowboys 1026 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 5: had been used to giving. So my points still comes 1027 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 5: back to in the NFL, you're gonna have some games. Well, 1028 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 5: I don't care how good your offense is, You're gonna 1029 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:29,879 Speaker 5: have those games where you run up against a really 1030 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 5: good defense. Do you have the defense to match if 1031 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 5: you have all your resources on the offensive side of 1032 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 5: the ball, are you giving yourself a chance? 1033 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 9: And those kind of games, I think for the Cowboys 1034 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:43,279 Speaker 9: their best chance to win. I think it has to 1035 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 9: be with pickings and all those great defenses have like 1036 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 9: weird offense that aren't like super Tawer Tear like that. 1037 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 9: I think your best chance is to win with pickings 1038 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 9: and to build your defense as best as possible. I've 1039 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 9: got who I would listen to, Landlord and Henny on 1040 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 9: YouTube shouts out of the down. 1041 00:45:57,840 --> 00:45:58,960 Speaker 6: Those are real people's names. 1042 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 9: They was like, if we're gonna play without GP, you 1043 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 9: need to promise me a top five defense. I don't 1044 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 9: think the Cowboys can build a top five defense right now. 1045 00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 9: So I think my best option is just roll with 1046 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 9: GP and build the best defensive. 1047 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 5: Well, we can see Seattle built one in one year. 1048 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:13,760 Speaker 6: We ain't them. 1049 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 5: Why not? 1050 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 2: Do you tell me? 1051 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 5: Why not? 1052 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 2: Do you do? 1053 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 5: You? 1054 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 2: Do you think? 1055 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 9: Do you think the Joneses can How much money did 1056 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,839 Speaker 9: New England spend last year? I mean last year building 1057 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:27,319 Speaker 9: building their defense a stupid amount of lot. I don't 1058 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 9: I don't know if the Joneses are gonna hit all 1059 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,399 Speaker 9: the buttons on all their contract players to get all 1060 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:34,440 Speaker 9: that money and then spend all that But. 1061 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 5: You're saying will they I'm saying they can. 1062 00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 2: They have the ability to. 1063 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 5: But that's my point. That's my point. That's my point. 1064 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 5: So Seattle in the same way Seattle decided, you know what, 1065 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:47,399 Speaker 5: we're tired of messing around with this. We're gonna get 1066 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 5: rid of the quarterback we got because we think we 1067 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:51,359 Speaker 5: can upgrade that, which a lot of people are like, huh, 1068 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 5: really they gonna do that, And then we're gonna go 1069 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:55,640 Speaker 5: out and spend on our defense, and we're gonna bring 1070 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 5: in the right players, and we think this guy McDonald 1071 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 5: has the ability press all the right buttons to make 1072 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 5: this defense into a top defense. And that's exactly what 1073 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 5: they did. 1074 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 9: If Jerry and Steven are sick and tired of being 1075 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 9: sick and tired, then they'll send a pick to some 1076 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 9: team for some dysgreundo player And that's a that's a 1077 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:14,839 Speaker 9: hell of a start. That's how I'm saying, like top 1078 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 9: five defense, that's where all to start. For me to 1079 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 9: go and get one of them cast that's disgrunled on 1080 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 9: some part of the country I can't say, and then 1081 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 9: build the rest of your team there. And if that 1082 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 9: has to be without GP, you have to promise me 1083 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 9: one of them, one of them kind of guys. Yeah, 1084 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,920 Speaker 9: and look on that time, because it's flowing around social media, 1085 00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,760 Speaker 9: I'm not trading GP one for one for that Disgronald 1086 00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 9: guy for some Discgronald pass rush. 1087 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 6: I'm not gonna do that, So I'm just. 1088 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:39,040 Speaker 5: I guess the point. The point that I'm making is 1089 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,799 Speaker 5: I wouldn't be shocked if the Cowboys took the route 1090 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 5: of let's franchise tag him. We can have him for 1091 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,239 Speaker 5: a year, let's not commit to the long term of 1092 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 5: we're gonna now have two guys that are top five, 1093 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 5: and you guys have. 1094 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 8: All said that's what's gonna happen. 1095 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 5: That's what I'm starting to think. But as you guys 1096 00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 5: all said, if he's gonna get top five money, they're 1097 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:02,840 Speaker 5: gonna commit to pay the top quarterback in the NFL 1098 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 5: and two of the top five wide receivers in the NFL. 1099 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 5: I think you're gonna be totally hamstring long term, and 1100 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:12,720 Speaker 5: I think they might right now. I think I would 1101 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:14,799 Speaker 5: guess that the better option would be if you have 1102 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:18,399 Speaker 5: an opportunity to franchise him for a year and then 1103 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:20,759 Speaker 5: still be able to use those resources to try to 1104 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 5: start building up that defense. You gotta hit it out 1105 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 5: of the park in the draft this year. You absolutely 1106 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 5: have to, because you don't have as many picks. You 1107 00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 5: got to kill the draft this year. Sure that gives 1108 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 5: you your best chance for the long term. It also 1109 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 5: gives you another year to see is Ryan f llinoil 1110 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:34,719 Speaker 5: real number two? 1111 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:35,359 Speaker 3: Right? 1112 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 5: We don't know that he showed us signs this year 1113 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,640 Speaker 5: that he can play. Can he be a true number two? 1114 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1115 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 5: I think they probably want more information on that. So 1116 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,839 Speaker 5: I just if I'm looking at this holistically, and I'm 1117 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 5: looking at all the trends of the NFL, I'm looking 1118 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 5: at the finances. If it were my decision, I might 1119 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 5: go to route of saying I would prefer to maybe 1120 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,839 Speaker 5: put him on a franchise tag. You have one more 1121 00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 5: year with him, and then make a decision on what 1122 00:48:59,480 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 5: I want to do. 1123 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,879 Speaker 9: I don't think we would mind GP playing on the tag, 1124 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:04,719 Speaker 9: but I don't think the agent will let that happen. 1125 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:06,680 Speaker 10: That was gonna be my point is, I don't know 1126 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 10: if George Pickens is going to be willing to. 1127 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,520 Speaker 4: Play on the tag. Could he be maybe? Who knows. 1128 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, you don't. 1129 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 8: Have much of an option when you're tagged, you. 1130 00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 5: Sit out, which but that's the yeah. But we have 1131 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,799 Speaker 5: seen one player do that. Now most players are not 1132 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:22,279 Speaker 5: willing to say I'm going to take a year in 1133 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 5: my prime to not play football. Yeah, that's that's hard. 1134 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:27,239 Speaker 5: There's a lot very hard. 1135 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 8: You're sitting now for the play. 1136 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:31,239 Speaker 10: For sure, I'm not I'm not. I'm not disagreeing with 1137 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 10: It's a very hard saying that. 1138 00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:33,279 Speaker 4: That is. 1139 00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 5: That's an option, an option, an option? 1140 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:36,799 Speaker 4: What had happened? Who knows? 1141 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 10: I think, Look, if you're going to do that and 1142 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,359 Speaker 10: you're going to pay George Pickens, your best approach has 1143 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:43,440 Speaker 10: to be. If we're talking super Bowl teams, you have 1144 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 10: to build like the Patriots did. It's different because they've 1145 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:47,919 Speaker 10: got a rookie quarterback who's not being paid sixty million 1146 00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:50,040 Speaker 10: dollars a year. But when they when you talk about 1147 00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 10: changing everything this offseason, you need to one spending free 1148 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:56,240 Speaker 10: agency because they go and they get you know, Milton 1149 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:58,640 Speaker 10: Williams and those kinds of guys. And then if you 1150 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:01,799 Speaker 10: look at their draft class man, like all of their 1151 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:05,240 Speaker 10: defensive guys that they got made an impact like Craig Woodson, 1152 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 10: especially what a game he had in the Super Bowl. 1153 00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 5: And they got to kill the draft all year. 1154 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 10: You've got to make sure you hit your picks, not 1155 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 10: just the first two picks. But if you get a 1156 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:16,239 Speaker 10: Day two pick through whatever means that may be, or 1157 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 10: in your Day three picks, you've got to find those 1158 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 10: diamonds in the roughlee eight that can help you immediately 1159 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 10: and help you quickly. So you know, we all we 1160 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,839 Speaker 10: talked about then they've talked about we'll take the best 1161 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 10: player available at twelve and twenty. I honestly don't think 1162 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 10: they can afford that. I think they need to go 1163 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 10: defense on both of those picks. 1164 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:34,080 Speaker 4: And I don't want it. 1165 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 5: And that's a whole different conversation. I just I get 1166 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,880 Speaker 5: nervous when you start saying give me the give give me, 1167 00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:42,520 Speaker 5: I gotta get a defensive player, because that's how you 1168 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:44,480 Speaker 5: not get a CD lamp, That's how you end up 1169 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:46,719 Speaker 5: in the situation where you get a tackle. Charlton, I 1170 00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:48,759 Speaker 5: think you make mistakes when you say I just got 1171 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:50,799 Speaker 5: to get something at this position on this side of 1172 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,360 Speaker 5: the ball, versus saying I'm going to take the player 1173 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:56,759 Speaker 5: that's best available to me that isn't a that can 1174 00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,120 Speaker 5: play immediately. I think that's a caveat that you can say, 1175 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 5: like you would say, I'm not going to take a 1176 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 5: quarterback because he ain't playing that. I need guys that 1177 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 5: can play now. But when you start saying I got 1178 00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 5: to get a defensive player, I got get an air dresher, 1179 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:08,839 Speaker 5: I think you make mistakes like that. 1180 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 4: If you have guys who are closely grated. 1181 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,480 Speaker 10: You got your offensive player who's here, and you've got 1182 00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 10: three defensive players that you don't have as high but 1183 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 10: still need a better be That's what I'm saying. 1184 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 5: They better be touching tags. Let's put it like that 1185 00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:26,280 Speaker 5: to use y'all's draft, and now y'all draft the draft. 1186 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 5: They better be touching tags. I mean, they got to 1187 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 5: be that close to where I'm like, these are comparable players. 1188 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:34,840 Speaker 5: I'm not taking risk on a guy just because I 1189 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 5: need a position. 1190 00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:37,279 Speaker 10: If it's a huge jump, I'm with you. I don't 1191 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:39,359 Speaker 10: think you can afford to do that. But if it's 1192 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 10: close enough to where you're weighing the options, you need defense. 1193 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:44,080 Speaker 7: Okay, this was just a quick Google search, so I 1194 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:46,080 Speaker 7: don't know how accurate it was or not. 1195 00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 5: You don't trust Google. 1196 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 7: That's why I said, I don't know how and we're 1197 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 7: about we're way past the end of the but right, 1198 00:51:54,960 --> 00:52:00,719 Speaker 7: but it says they would forfeit their entire salary for 1199 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:03,960 Speaker 7: that season. And according to this, it says that the 1200 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 7: players are subject to a fifty thousand dollars fine each 1201 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:09,560 Speaker 7: day they. 1202 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:11,560 Speaker 5: Hold out wait during camp or during the season. 1203 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:12,560 Speaker 8: This says. 1204 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:19,359 Speaker 7: It doesn't specify, but it says it's them holding out 1205 00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 7: under the franchise. 1206 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 5: Tie per game of per day that you say per day. 1207 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 2: And that's what I was taking so. 1208 00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:30,840 Speaker 5: Maybe, actually, yeah, you got money. 1209 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 10: That's what I was talking about with Micah during his 1210 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 10: training camp is I was wondering if that was the 1211 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 10: same situation, because remember, just Pickens on a rookie deal. 1212 00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:40,880 Speaker 5: So we got to get some info in that and 1213 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:42,720 Speaker 5: figure out that's how because if that's how, it worries 1214 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,800 Speaker 5: that that's why players don't sit out is because there's 1215 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 5: a lot of money. Money, that's a ton of money. Still, 1216 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 5: all right, I appreciate you guys jump. So we'll be 1217 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 5: back next week. We'll get back into our our player review, 1218 00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:58,399 Speaker 5: go through some more positions. Weren't talk about the running 1219 00:52:58,400 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 5: back position next week because I think there's some interest 1220 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 5: conversations there, particularly Javonte Williams and some of the guys 1221 00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:04,560 Speaker 5: that are coming up in free agency. I think there's 1222 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 5: some interesting conversations to be had. We'll do that next week. 1223 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 5: Till then for Vax Lombardi, Tommy Yrish Ambergarci, I'm Derek Eildan. 1224 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 5: This has been the Break live on Dallas Cowboys dot 1225 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 5: Com Radio. 1226 00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:16,680 Speaker 1: This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and 1227 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
