We're talking free agents today. 21 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 6: We have quite a bit happening in that world. It's 22 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 6: happened here over the last few days, and I suspect 23 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 6: there will be more of that happening really over the 24 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,960 Speaker 6: next three weeks. Basically the Cowboys talking about their own 25 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 6: free agents and certainly from the standpoint of free agency. 26 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 6: Beginning on the second week of February. I'm sorry of 27 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 6: March and hopefully the Cowboys being active players there, we're 28 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 6: all looking forward to that. Let's start first with Javonte Williams. 29 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 6: Cowboys did the deal with mister Williams, got him signed 30 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 6: to a three year deal twenty four million. This is 31 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 6: the part I love about it. He is the sixteenth 32 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 6: highest paid running back in the NFL. That's a value deal, 33 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 6: no doubt about it, because I think he is at 34 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 6: least the sixteenth best running back, probably top ten. 35 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 2: But to get him out. 36 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 6: Of sixteenth rated, you know, as far as pay is concerned, 37 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 6: I think is a heck of a deal for the Cowboys. 38 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 6: Your thoughts as you've heard about this new signing and bro, please, 39 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 6: I got so much to say. 40 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 5: So well, first of all, I found it surprising that 41 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 5: it happened, because I really thought he would be a 42 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,399 Speaker 5: guy that would test the market and go out there, 43 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 5: test it out and see. I was initially curious because 44 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 5: what is the benefit obviously benefits for the Cowboys not 45 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 5: to allow that to get to the open market. But 46 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,679 Speaker 5: from his standpoint, I started to think, well, how does 47 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 5: that benefit him from a business perspective. I'm not sure 48 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 5: what the reasons were necessarily as far as that decision, 49 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 5: but I was extremely happy because he was one of 50 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 5: the free agents or upcoming free agents that I really 51 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 5: thought was not going to end up being here with 52 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 5: the team. And although there are many people that would argue, like, oh, 53 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 5: you can find other running backs and put them in there, 54 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 5: draft their running back. We've had this conversation on the 55 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 5: show previously. I'm at the point where we have so 56 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 5: many other problems that why mess with something that was 57 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 5: already working. Let's keep it consistent. The offense was performing 58 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 5: really well most of the time. There are areas room 59 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,399 Speaker 5: for improvement, of course, but he was one of those 60 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 5: pieces that you can trust, you don't have to worry 61 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 5: about on and off the field, like he's such an 62 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 5: unproblematic guy. And yeah, I was very happy with the 63 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 5: deal and that they actually got it done. I was 64 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 5: happy to know that they were indeed having those conversations already, 65 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 5: because we often hear, oh, well, well, we can't wait 66 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 5: until we start having the talk. We can't wait until 67 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 5: we start those negotiations, which we heard about George Pickens previously. 68 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 5: And it was around the same time that Stephen Jones 69 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 5: had made the comments that they were in talks with 70 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 5: Javonta Williams as opposed to George Pickens at the time. 71 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 5: So anyways, very happy about it. I'm excited. He had 72 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 5: a moment to talk with Nick Yaman yesterday when he 73 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 5: came in to sign the contract, and Nick wrote it 74 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 5: in a story on Dallascowis dot com. And I found 75 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 5: it funny that he made the comment that when Jerry 76 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 5: called him on the phone, he was like, oh, thinking like, oh, 77 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 5: mister Jones, sign GP. And I was like, oh, good 78 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 5: for you, Like, I love that because you look at 79 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 5: him and you don't think he would. He's a very 80 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 5: I don't know him that well personally obviously just being 81 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 5: around the locker room and all that, but you know 82 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 5: that he's a shy, reserve, reserve person. So I found 83 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 5: it a little funny that he would make sure to 84 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 5: make that comment to Jerry Jones and let him know, Hey, 85 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 5: you gotta make sure you get that deal done with Wicks. 86 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 6: What's a parent is I think all those guys on 87 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 6: the offensive side of the ball. No, even if I'm 88 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 6: really really great at my job, I get so much better. 89 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 2: So GP is out there. I'm sure. 90 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 6: That's why CD is like, please, don't get this done. 91 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 6: DAK is like, hey, Jerry, get this done. I think 92 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 6: everybody knows this offense is so much better, so much deadlier, and. 93 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 2: And the players. 94 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 6: You're going to benefit personally if GP is out there, 95 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 6: because he just takes the pressure off of everybody else 96 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 6: because of how much of a target he is. 97 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 7: Even flow flow might make some money, you know whatever. 98 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 7: Anbars and credibly smart by the way, made all the 99 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 7: all the best points. 100 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 2: Did she leave you anything? Is there any meat left 101 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 2: on them? 102 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 3: Oh? 103 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 2: He always got. 104 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 7: To answer your question right. From a business standpoint, why 105 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 7: would it makes sense for him to sign earlier. I 106 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 7: think that's a phenomenal point that you brought up. Remember 107 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 7: last year when everybody thought the running back market was 108 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 7: going to be a little higher, and maybe Rico and 109 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 7: Company thought that, oh he might be an eight million 110 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 7: dollar back, ten million dollar back, but the running back 111 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 7: market ended up being like vet minimum for most of 112 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 7: these guys. I think it was very smart for Williams 113 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 7: and Company to go, hey, sign me now before we 114 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 7: figure out running backs going for cheap again. 115 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 6: And by the way, a three year deal like that's 116 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 6: the thing. A lot of them last year with just 117 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 6: take one year deal. Sure, get a three year deal 118 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 6: me in now, I'm I'm. 119 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 3: Sure the numbers on that contract look real good to him, 120 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 3: shouts out him. 121 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 5: I forgot about it. 122 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 7: No, please, I saved this point just for the break. 123 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,600 Speaker 7: Imagine what life would have looked like last year. Because 124 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 7: you're not wrong yet, bro. A lot of people say, oh, 125 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 7: you could just find a running back anywhere. You could 126 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 7: just find somebody undrafted, some free agent. Imagine if we 127 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 7: walked into the season going all right, our plan at 128 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 7: running back is Miles Sanders Jayda on Blue filed mind 129 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 7: a hunter lick. How much more different would that have gone? 130 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 3: Oh? 131 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,599 Speaker 7: Man, Miles is a veteran. He's done this before, you 132 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 7: know what I'm saying. And you know, we didn't see 133 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 7: that sparked. He got hurt, I know, but we didn't 134 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 7: see a spark out of him at all. Jayda on 135 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 7: Blue Hey, rookies come in and contribute all the time. Hey, 136 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 7: rookies don't al They're not always ready day one in 137 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 7: that way. You know, just because somebody else did it, 138 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 7: that doesn't mean that you could just go do it. 139 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 7: I think running back deserves so much more respect than 140 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 7: what it gets online. Everybody think you just find a 141 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 7: running back for every crosskey merit that some other team 142 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 7: gets in the seventh round, it is forty Mike Webers 143 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 7: that will never hear from ever again. 144 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. 145 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 7: What I'm saying, So I think if you have somebody 146 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,679 Speaker 7: that works. Nobro made this point, if you have somebody 147 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 7: that works that you can get a thousand yards rushing 148 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 7: plus thousand yard plus and it was some meat on 149 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 7: the bone we could say, you know, because this is 150 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 7: a first year offense. Right, I'm sure Clayton Adams scheming 151 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 7: things up for him right now. Kept back up right, 152 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 7: if you're gonna go cheap at the offensive line, if 153 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 7: you're gonna because that's where you save your money at 154 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 7: that's the point that everybody ain't talking about. If you 155 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 7: go expensive ad receiver, where you're saving your money. Your 156 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 7: right tackle is relatively cheap. You got three more rookie 157 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 7: deals and big Tyler making here is winging. But that's 158 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 7: where you're gonna save your bread. If you're gonna save 159 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 7: money on offensive lineman, and y'all go to one O 160 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 7: five three to the fan. Clayton Adams was on this morning. 161 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 7: They asked him, Hey man, y'all moving Tyler Smith to 162 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 7: tackle and he was like, look, man, we fantastic in 163 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 7: the middle. He said, like, that is me saying to him, 164 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 7: were fantastic in the middle. I don't want to move 165 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 7: stuff around. That tells me we're keeping both both tackles. 166 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 7: That money is what it is, and it's fine, that's 167 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 7: perfectly fine. We ain't got to upgrade left or a 168 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 7: right tackle. But you having a running back that cannot 169 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 7: only fulfill his blocking assignment as a running back, but 170 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 7: if Terrence wiffs, he'll go smack it in for an 171 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 7: extra second or smack a three tech for an extra second. 172 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 7: I think that's important for you and catch the ball. 173 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 7: As a receiver. Javonte Weaves is a complete back and 174 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 7: in this system with this quarterback to a receiver's run game, 175 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 7: O line and all that give him his money because 176 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 7: we gonna look back at this thing and go, that's 177 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 7: really not a bunch of bread. 178 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 3: And that's what you led with. He's average amongst paid. 179 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 7: Running backs, but you're getting top ten, top eight production 180 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 7: out of him. 181 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 3: And I got so many more points. 182 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: But please go ahead, non I agree with that. 183 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 6: I still I'm probably a little different with you when 184 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 6: you start talking about the relative value of running backs, 185 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 6: because I do think I always think of players, and 186 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 6: it's gonna sound bad, so please don't take it in 187 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 6: the from a from the literal sense. But it's replacement 188 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 6: value for me, Like, how difficult is it to find 189 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 6: a replacement if you let a running back go? And 190 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 6: I think that that's one of the positions in the 191 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,839 Speaker 6: NFL that they are plentiful. That doesn't mean all of them, 192 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 6: it means there's a greater percentage chance. 193 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,199 Speaker 2: By the way, you look at Malie Davis. 194 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 6: Malik Davis came in here and he was an outcast 195 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 6: by all accounts, came in and had some really great 196 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 6: moments of spelling of Javonte, and so I think it 197 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 6: just proves the point there are backs out there, their 198 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 6: backs to be had. You don't necessarily have to pay 199 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 6: top dollar. But again, that's why I love this deal. 200 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 6: You paid middle of the road money for a guy 201 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 6: that I think is the only the only knock I 202 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 6: have on his game is I wish he had a 203 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,479 Speaker 6: little bit more of that breakaway ability. 204 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: To give me those home runs. But that's the only 205 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 2: thing I got to give up. 206 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 7: Hey man, Yeah, I'm good, which is why me leading 207 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 7: with You're not wrong. By the way, you can find 208 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 7: chief running back Malie Davis is from the crew right 209 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 7: up in here. I don't know if you want to 210 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 7: lead with him though, but that's why I led with. 211 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 7: Look at the running backs that we had on the team, 212 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 7: and we were like, man, let's see one of these 213 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 7: guys got. 214 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,599 Speaker 3: To hit, and man, we was just like, save us somebody. 215 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 7: But we should have known when like, hey man, Javonte 216 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 7: is not doing nothing in preseason. 217 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 3: You know what's what's the plan for? 218 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 2: They had a plan, they knew, they knew what, they 219 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 2: knew what was going on with that. 220 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 7: So yeah, it's probably easy for your personnel department. They've 221 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 7: done it with Rico, They've done it with many other guys, right, 222 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 7: But man, I don't like shooting Dice when it's perfect, 223 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 7: when it's good to go. I don't want to shoot Dice. 224 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 7: Rico good. But Rico may not be the past block 225 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 7: at Javonte is or it may be a Dalvin Cook situation, 226 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 7: right all right, we signed Zeke and Dalvin Cook. One 227 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 7: of them got a boy one of what I'm saying, 228 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 7: So I like to just we're gonna talk about kickers 229 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 7: in a minute, but I'm fine with giving the running 230 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 7: back his money because, just like you said, he's a 231 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 7: part of this system on offense where everybody helps everybody. 232 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 7: And I think once you get to the postseason, if 233 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 7: our defense can do anything, I think that's gonna matter 234 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 7: match because when these teams start taking wide receivers away, 235 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 7: run game will be there for you. 236 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 5: And I was gonna just add one of the greatest 237 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 5: things about him, even though he lacks that quality that 238 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 5: you mentioned, Derek, is he brings consistency. He was the 239 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 5: same player every single time. It wasn't like you never 240 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 5: knew what kind of running back or running game you 241 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 5: were gonna get that day. Despite players coming on and 242 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 5: off the field with injuries on the offensive line, I 243 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 5: think his game wasn't necessarily fully affected in a way 244 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 5: where you're like, oh my god, it all depends on 245 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 5: the offensive line to create those holes for him. He 246 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 5: was able to help in other ways, like with the 247 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 5: blocking and all that, But running wise, I think he 248 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 5: stayed pretty consistent despite all the injuries that happened in 249 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 5: the line. 250 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 6: All Right, we're gonna take our first break. We're gonna 251 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 6: come back. We've got to talk about another free agent 252 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 6: that the Cowboys have they're in the middle of negotiation with. 253 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 6: As as Steven Jones called it, it's been a journey. 254 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 6: We'll talk about it and take that journey when we 255 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 6: come back.

Hey, 386 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 7: we just playing the game today, Dallas Cowboys dot Com. 387 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 7: In the basement. We just playing man to some kicking it. 388 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 7: But y'all ain't gonna pay me no real money. 389 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 3: To do that. 390 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 5: Well, how many times have you actually seen a player 391 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 5: walk by? 392 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 6: You got to think ahead, No, No, we've actually investigated 393 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 6: an idea like this. The challenge was number one, getting 394 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 6: the players consistently to come through and do that. 395 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 2: But even on top of that, you start. 396 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 6: Getting to other issues of what are you doing every time, 397 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 6: how do you get the right types of things going on? 398 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 6: And the platform, because at the time we were looking 399 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 6: at it, we actually were thinking we wanted to maybe 400 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 6: do this on Twitch. Well, the NFL doesn't allow teams 401 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 6: to get on Twitch, so we can't actually do it 402 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 6: on Twitch, which would be the perfect platform for something 403 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 6: like that, right, can't get on Twitch. So it's like 404 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 6: those kind of things where it's like all these behind 405 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 6: the thing, behind the scenes impediments that make it hard 406 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,199 Speaker 6: to do the things that you really want to be 407 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 6: able to do in the places you want to be 408 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 6: able to do. 409 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 3: And let's start talking right now, because I was about 410 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:30,919 Speaker 3: to hitch you all. 411 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 6: With some cold All right, well we'll talk about that. 412 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 6: Let's let's talk about Brandon Aubrey, we'll talk about money. 413 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 2: Let's talk about Brandon Aubrey. 414 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 6: Because I started hearing the reports and actually i'd heard 415 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 6: some of these things there. You know, you being around 416 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 6: the building, you kind of get wind of certain things, 417 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 6: and and I'd heard that, you know, there was an 418 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:51,959 Speaker 6: offer that had already kind of gone out to him. 419 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 6: And it was interesting how Steven put it when he 420 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 6: was talking to the media on Monday, he called he said, 421 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 6: it's it's been a journey. 422 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 2: And you don't typically hear that about it negotiation with 423 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 2: a kicker. 424 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 6: But starting to hear the reports they came out yesterday 425 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 6: and it gave more context to why he says it's 426 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 6: been a journey because, according to reports, he and his 427 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 6: camp are looking for an average salary per year of 428 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:18,400 Speaker 6: ten million dollars. 429 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: Now, let me put this in context for you guys. 430 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 6: Right now, the highest kicker in the NFL is Harrison Butker. 431 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 6: On average per year, he makes six point four million. 432 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 6: Jake Elliot's next with six million. Then there are three 433 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 6: kickers that are about five point five million, Dicker, McPherson 434 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 6: and Goano. Right, if he wants to jump to ten 435 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 6: from the highest paid of six point four, that is 436 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 6: a fifty I think what did we say fifty three percent? 437 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 6: I think we said fifty three to fifty four percent 438 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 6: somewhere in there. Percent increase from the highest to where 439 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 6: he wants to be. My question for you, guys, I 440 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 6: really believe the Cowboys are going to use the restricted 441 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 6: the tender, second round tender. 442 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 2: Are you comfortable if his demand stay at ten million? 443 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 6: Are you comfortable saying give him ten or do you think, hey, man, 444 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 6: if somebody's out there willing to give him ten, great, 445 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 6: take your ten and move forward and we'll take the 446 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 6: second round pick. 447 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 3: And I got so much you hear. 448 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 7: I want players to have a great relationship with their agent, 449 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 7: to have their agent understand like, look here, bro, give 450 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 7: me my bread. I want you to. 451 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. 452 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 7: I do want to be here. I think Michael could 453 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 7: have benefited from there too. You know what I'm saying, Like, look, man. 454 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 2: Speak for yourself, not just let the agent just do everything. 455 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 7: Yeah, on a scale of one to ten, I would 456 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 7: love to I don't want to be kicking in Cleveland. 457 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 4: Bro. 458 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 3: I do want to change my family the trajectory. 459 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 5: But how do you know that's not already happening? Because 460 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 5: I've had an agent before, and yes, they are the 461 00:20:54,600 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 5: ones to take action and do the whole negotiation. Know, Okay, 462 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 5: this is the money we're looking at. But it does 463 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 5: get to the point where you have those conversations. You 464 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,239 Speaker 5: don't just have the agent handle the whole thing for 465 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 5: the most part, yes, but you also have at least 466 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 5: one conversation of what you want, yes as a player, 467 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 5: where you want to be or what whatnot. So we 468 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 5: don't know if they've had those conversations. And maybe that's 469 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 5: where he's leaning towards too. 470 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 6: But I also think that part of that though, goes 471 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 6: back to is the agent is the agent representing He 472 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 6: may say, Let's say, for example, Aubrey said, I want 473 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 6: to be here. I want to be the highest paid kicker, 474 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 6: and I want to get the most I can get 475 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 6: to be here. Right, those are his his things, like 476 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 6: those are things I want to get done. The agent 477 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 6: may say, Okay, I know in dealing with the Jones 478 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 6: is we gotta shoot high. 479 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna go in there and I'm gonna say 480 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 2: ten million. 481 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 6: I don't think we're gonna get ten but I'm gonna 482 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 6: say ten million, right, and I'm gonna try to hold 483 00:21:59,080 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 6: them to ten million. 484 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 2: Hopes that where we land is eight million. 485 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,360 Speaker 3: I want Jared to then be like Cleveland. 486 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 2: But but I guess my point is yet. 487 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 5: To your point, he could and that's a tactic that is. 488 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 2: Exactly But I guess that's my point. He could. 489 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 6: They could have had the conversation and Brandon could have 490 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 6: been like, hey, this is these are things that are 491 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 6: important to me. He may not even given a specific number. 492 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 6: The agent is now using his own abilities to say 493 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 6: this is how I think I can get all these 494 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 6: things that he wants. 495 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 3: Now. 496 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 6: The problem with that, in my opinion, is I think 497 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 6: that affects the image of Yes, Brandon Aubrey. I think 498 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 6: fans think differently today about Brandon Aubrey. Maybe not fairly, 499 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 6: maybe not a lot, but I think there's probably a 500 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,439 Speaker 6: little different of opinion on what they think of Brandon 501 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 6: Aubrey today than what they did before this report came out. 502 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 7: You guys agree, Yes, I know what my threshold would be. 503 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 7: I would talk to my age and be like, look, bro, 504 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 7: I'm looking for this. Don't go in there asking this 505 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 7: many more times this. I want to work for the Cowboys. 506 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 7: Break the Saints break may be offering me a little 507 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 7: bit more. Look, bro, I don't want them to send 508 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying. I don't want to have 509 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 7: to go to Saints break. Yeah, it's money similar Saints 510 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 7: paying a little bit more. I would like to stay here. 511 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 7: I don't want to move. I want arbor to go 512 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 7: bro ten million. I want Arbora to call Todd France 513 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 7: right now, Bro ten million? Ten Even if you find 514 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 7: with seven. 515 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,239 Speaker 2: Say eight, yeah, right, say hey? 516 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 7: And I'm sure that the Joneses are reasonable little not 517 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 7: like look man, you say, Bucker make six point something? Man, 518 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 7: Look Bro, I don't want to waste all time. Can 519 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 7: we get to seven to eight and be fine? 520 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 6: By the way, the report is that they already put 521 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 6: out an offer and the offer makes it the highest 522 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 6: pace so it's above the six point four. Now we 523 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 6: don't know if it's six point four with one dollar more. 524 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,679 Speaker 6: So we don't know if it's five hundred thousand more. 525 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 6: We don't know if it's a million. 526 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 2: We don't know. I don't know that. But what we 527 00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 2: know is they made an offer and it made it 528 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 2: the highest pace kicker in the NFL. 529 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,959 Speaker 5: What I please with this situation? Okay? 530 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 3: Number one? 531 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 5: I feel like the information doesn't get leaked unless you 532 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 5: don't unless what is unless you want it to. So 533 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 5: let's say, okay, this came out and people are talking 534 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 5: about it and all that my thought, and again this 535 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 5: is not confirmed. This is just what I think is 536 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 5: that the initial ask, let's say, was the ten million, 537 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 5: then the Cowboys did it whatever, And now it's at 538 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 5: a point where I think, Uh, his agent is not 539 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 5: budgeting at all and stuck at that because I think 540 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 5: if they would keep going back and forth and it 541 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 5: just the. 542 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 2: Fact that I'm saying it's a journey makes me agree 543 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 2: with you. 544 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 5: You're sticking with. 545 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 7: It because now we're going, well, forget him. Then now 546 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 7: that looks bad for Aubrey and Arby should be like, man, 547 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 7: I don't want that. I don't want this negative press about. 548 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 7: I don't want to seem greedy to the media. 549 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 3: I don't want to. 550 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 7: I don't want this to be another money man. You 551 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 7: you asking for the same amount of money Jordan Lewis 552 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 7: got last year. 553 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 6: By the way, this is more money than Javonte Williams 554 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 6: that we just signed him to. 555 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 2: His average is eight. Are you gonna really pay a 556 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 2: kicker ten? 557 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,719 Speaker 6: I mean, just thinking about the value and how often 558 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 6: he has the ball in his hands, how often he's 559 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 6: asked to make a play that's going to affect the 560 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 6: outcome of games. 561 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 2: I have a hard time thinking you pay. 562 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 7: Him more than the running back for me, you are 563 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 7: That's exactly I said this earlier. 564 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 3: We may see Brandon Arby what eight times a game 565 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 3: ten or eleven? Javonte get twenty carries ten you know 566 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 3: what I'm saying. 567 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, like and all the times he picks up the 568 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 6: blitz that we don't necessarily talk about, but it saved 569 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 6: Dak from an injury. 570 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 7: Even if you're the best kicker in the game with 571 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 7: the fifty percent, you're not fifty percent better whatever the 572 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 7: percentage is. You not fifty percent better than Harrison Bucker 573 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 7: because you I don't see you kicking and making seventy y'all. 574 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 6: Kids, you want to hear the numbers behind that for four? Okay, 575 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 6: So I started looking doing something because here's the deal. 576 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 6: I believe that Brandon Kicker, I'm sorry, Brandon Aubrey, I 577 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 6: call him Brandon Kicker. Brandon Aubrey is among he's among 578 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 6: the best kickers in the league. There is nothing statistical 579 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 6: that says he is head and shoulders above them. 580 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 3: Correct. 581 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 6: This last year he kicked more fifty plus yard field 582 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 6: goals than anyone else he had more attempts, but he 583 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 6: only made eleven of the seventeen he had. That's a 584 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 6: fifty three percent rate of actual made kicks over fifty plus. 585 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 6: There were other kickers who didn't have as many attempts 586 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 6: but still got eleven fifty plus kicks that they made. 587 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 6: There are two others. He didn't have the longest kick 588 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 6: in the NFL this year. There was one kicker that 589 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 6: had two kicks that were longer than the longest kick 590 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 6: that Brandon Aubrey has this year. Yeah, so when you 591 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 6: talk about it, there is nothing statistical that says this 592 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 6: man is so much farther ahead of everyone, Like, this 593 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 6: is not the Miles Garrett of pass rushing, right, it 594 00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 6: is he is among the very best. And again I 595 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 6: don't want to that away from HM. Let's be clear, 596 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 6: Brandon Aubrey is a good kicker, a really good kicker, 597 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 6: among the very best in the league. There is nothing 598 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 6: that suggests he is far ahead of everybody else, which 599 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 6: makes me say, if you're among the best kickers in 600 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 6: the league and your deal is up, you should set 601 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 6: the market. So I think it should be the highest 602 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 6: paid kicker in the game. It doesn't tell me I 603 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 6: should jump fifty plus percent from the next highest paid 604 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 6: kicker because he's among the best. That seems that seems 605 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 6: excessive to me. 606 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 7: I got two real fast points, and I promise I'm 607 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 7: not gonna linger long. If Brandon Aubrey was five for 608 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 7: five from seventy yards, maybe we could talk about. 609 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 3: Ten million dollars. Then he's mouth Garrett, we could talk 610 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 3: about ten million. 611 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 7: If you five for five, yes, then your mouth Garrett, 612 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 7: then you Miles Garrett. Yeah, also too. I think six 613 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 7: meaning too much for a kicker. I think five meaning 614 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 7: too much. 615 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 2: The market says it's not. 616 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 3: The market says it is not. 617 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 7: But if my last name was Jones, McLay Todd waves 618 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 7: about if that was my last name, I'm going, man, look, bro, 619 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 7: I'd rather just treat kicker like running back and just 620 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 7: find a dude that can. I call Kyle for Bath, 621 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 7: see what he doing, run your offense, and put all 622 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 7: that money in the defense. 623 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 3: I think I still think seven is a lot for 624 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 3: a kick. 625 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. I know what you're saying, 626 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 2: but I will say this. 627 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 6: I've been around here in years where every time the 628 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 6: kicker went out, whether it was for a field goal 629 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 6: or an extra point. 630 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 2: You literally would. 631 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 6: Like, Man, I can't even go up and get him, 632 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 6: go to restaurant because I gotta see if he gonna 633 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 6: make this or not. 634 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 3: Sure. 635 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 2: I don't like that feeling. 636 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 3: It's a big difference. 637 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 2: I don't like Dan Bayley right now. 638 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 6: Right now, I love the fact that the kicker comes 639 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 6: on the field if it's fifty and in alight, man 640 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 6: bring it up. Sure, let's go. Let's move on to 641 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 6: the next thing, because he's gonna make it. Give me 642 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 6: the three you can go and put on the board, like, 643 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 6: give me the three. 644 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 2: I love that. So I'm not saying I'm willing to 645 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: pay him market price. For me. 646 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 6: Market price would be probably somewhere in the range of 647 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 6: seven point five. If you got me on a good 648 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 6: day and I was feeling really benevolent. 649 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 2: Maybe I get to eight. But man, I ain't going 650 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 2: over eight. I can't pay him more than I pay 651 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 2: the runner. 652 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 5: I'm gonna find what CeMM for the second roundtender. 653 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 2: Five point three million. So essentially here's the deal. 654 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 6: What ends up happening is if the Cowboys are like 655 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 6: if they stick to the ten, and the Cowboys like, 656 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 6: we're not paying ten Cowboys put a second round tender 657 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 6: on him. Let's say then what happens is he goes 658 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 6: out into free agency and other teams will have the 659 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 6: ability to be able to give him a deal that 660 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 6: the Cowboys will have righte a first refusal on. But 661 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 6: if the Cowboys decide, hey, this is not a deal 662 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 6: we want to match, then he's able to go to 663 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 6: that other team. That other team gives the Cowboys a 664 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 6: second round pick, especially in a year like this where 665 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 6: I don't have a second round pick. If that's what 666 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 6: we got and my options are pay ten million for 667 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 6: a kicker or take a second round pick, I'm going 668 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 6: back to the well to try to find my kicker, 669 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 6: and I'm gonna take a second round pick and see 670 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 6: what I can do on my defense. That seems pready 671 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 6: cleared me as far as how I would handle it. 672 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 7: I'll go find a college student that'll love to have 673 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 7: five hundred thousand dollars that used to play soccer or something. 674 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 7: I'm like, hey, man, let's just have a kicking combine 675 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 7: and find them just like we do. 676 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 3: Or go to USFL. 677 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 7: I'm sure there's some good kicking USFL kid coming out 678 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 7: this year. I just I just like, look, I need defenders, 679 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 7: man Jodan Louis made me I would I would rather have. 680 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 7: I would rather have with a corner than the best 681 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 7: safety that I'm only going to see for eight or 682 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 7: nine or tex So just ten, just team building wise, 683 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 7: I'm just fundamentally opposed to it because I just got 684 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 7: so many other things I could do with and you 685 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,479 Speaker 7: made offense that I didn't even think about, managin Vontee 686 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 7: ain't even making tins, And how you gonna get ten? 687 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 5: I see a lot of people in the chat they 688 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 5: say talking to telling the number like the highest that 689 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 5: they would go. I see something for seven, seven point five, 690 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 5: eight or eight point five, which is still extremely high. 691 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 5: But I wanted to ask you, guys, what is the 692 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 5: max that you would give him? 693 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 6: That's what I just said. I said, for me, seven 694 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 6: point five is kind of upper limit. I might again, 695 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 6: a very very good day, on a very very good day, 696 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 6: maybe you could get me the eight, But seven point 697 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 6: five really is kind of my max, especially knowing six 698 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 6: point five is where the highest is right now. I 699 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 6: don't see myself going over seven point five. 700 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 7: Me as a lowly creator podcast do if they give 701 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 7: them seven, I'll shut up if my last name was Jones, 702 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 7: I'm trying to find some cheap kicker and put all 703 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 7: my resource. 704 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 3: In the defense. 705 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 5: You know what gives me pause is that I have 706 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 5: this secret trauma in my head, in my mental of 707 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 5: like when you do give a big contract, then they. 708 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 3: Can't all of a sudden, by the way, by the way, 709 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 3: that happens. 710 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 2: That's the thing about kickers. 711 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 6: Kickers are just that I've heard, I've heard, I've heard 712 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 6: special teams coaches the most the most important thing for 713 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 6: a kicker is the mental and the mental can go 714 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 6: at any moment, just something triggers it gets in their head. 715 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 6: It's like a golf swing. Once it gets in your head, 716 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 6: it's hard to get it back right. Look at Justin 717 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 6: Tucker for years, for years, was absolutely the best kick 718 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 6: in the National Football League, and in a matter of 719 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 6: a year went from that to just a guy that 720 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 6: was like, yeah, he ain't that good. Now he has 721 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 6: some off the field issues going on. Maybe that affected, 722 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 6: But again my point is it's a mental thing. 723 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 2: He didn't forget how to kick. His leg didn't just 724 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 2: fall off. It is. It is mental. 725 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 6: And when kickers go through that slide, and we started 726 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 6: happening with Dan Bailey, and I thought Dan Bailey would 727 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 6: last forever, like he was so great and and I 728 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 6: love when he step out there on the field and 729 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,719 Speaker 6: Corey Miller would start playing I got five on it 730 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 6: in the stadium and feeling the vibe, and he go 731 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 6: out there make his kick, and then all of a 732 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 6: sudden he wasn't making those kicks. 733 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 2: Like that's the thing. 734 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 6: So if you're gonna pay this kind of money, I 735 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 6: want a little more assurance than at any moment this 736 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 6: thing could fall apart, you know, Scar, Yeah, all right, 737 00:32:58,880 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 6: let's take our final breakers. 738 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 2: Come we'll see where we go from there. 739 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 6: We might well have a little more on this, because 740 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,719 Speaker 6: it sounds like it looks like Veat's got some other things. 741 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 3: See what throw out there and it's eleven four to one. 742 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 3: We ain't got time. 743 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 2: All right, We'll be back Dallas Cowboys dot Com Radio 744 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 2: at AT and T. 745 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 10: We guarantee our network so you can talk college football 746 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 10: with your bff while taking Buster to the vet. 747 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 2: Hey, yeah, I can't believiate the whole thing of chicken. 748 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 3: Wings, and I can't believe we're staging a comeback to stress. 749 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 10: Staying connected matters That's why, in the rare event of 750 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 10: a network outage, you'll automatically get a bill credit for 751 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 10: a full day service for wireless Downtown lasting sixty minutes 752 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 10: and more.

I do think there are 830 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 6: some that know more than others, because you have access 831 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,280 Speaker 6: to people who will tell you those kinds of things. 832 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,839 Speaker 6: But even at that, there's nobody in the media that 833 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 6: has one hundred percent of the facts of what's going on. 834 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 6: They have bits and pieces that they pick up from 835 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 6: different places, and then from that they are able to 836 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 6: surmise whatever they think is going on. So I say 837 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 6: all that to say when Stephen says that they look 838 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,279 Speaker 6: at it and a lot of times when people are 839 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 6: saying this is wrong, this is wrong, this is wrong, 840 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 6: the cowboys may be looking at it and being like 841 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 6: what we know is this is wrong, but this over here, 842 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,439 Speaker 6: this was something else that was a factress to why 843 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 6: you say that's wrong. And that's the fact that we've 844 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,479 Speaker 6: corrected with something else. So they feel like they've solved 845 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,919 Speaker 6: the problem. It's not what you think is the problem, right, 846 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 6: And so they may look at it and say the 847 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 6: player isn't the issue here. We are willing to say 848 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,320 Speaker 6: we will go another year with this player, where everybody 849 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 6: else is looking being like, you gotta get. 850 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 2: Rid of this guy. He's not that good, right. 851 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:11,720 Speaker 6: So I think they get more aggressive when there's actual 852 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 6: agreement between the media and what they're thinking on a 853 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 6: player evaluation, Like I think it's happening right now. I 854 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 6: think everybody's agreeing there are a lot of players on 855 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,320 Speaker 6: this defense from last year that cannot be back next year. Sure, Now, 856 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,960 Speaker 6: I don't know if that's one hundred percent, because I 857 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 6: could see a scenario where there are some players and 858 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 6: I've been saying this on this show. I think there's 859 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 6: some players on this team that people are gonna be 860 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,240 Speaker 6: there's one or two I would say on this defense 861 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 6: that people will be like, really, they brought him back 862 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,399 Speaker 6: and he will be fine. If all the other pieces work, 863 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 6: because again, you can't fix everything. But I do think 864 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 6: that they're more aggressive when they when they feel like 865 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 6: they have to be. 866 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 3: You know, Malik Hooker and. 867 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 2: The other one. Yeah, maybe it's a Marist or something 868 00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 2: like that. 869 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 6: Maybe it's a guy like like Shamar who everybody's kind 870 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:04,439 Speaker 6: of already written the book on him. 871 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:05,760 Speaker 2: He was only a rookie. 872 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 6: Where the defensive coordinator comes in, a new linebackers coach 873 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 6: comes in and says, I could do something with him. 874 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 6: I was told that there was a former linebacker that 875 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 6: played for the Cowboys that's thinking about maybe getting into coaching. 876 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:19,359 Speaker 6: At some point he was talking to one of our 877 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 6: guys and he mentioned he said, you know, if I 878 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 6: had some time with Shamaha. 879 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 2: It wasn't Sean. 880 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:28,359 Speaker 6: He's like, if I if I had some time, yeah, 881 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 6: yeah you do, Yeah you do. By the way, this 882 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 6: is the guy that was that was a good linebacker 883 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 6: for the Cowboys. He was like, if I had some 884 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 6: time with Shamar, he would he would be I see 885 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 6: things in him that would make him a really good linebacker. 886 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 6: But that's one like you could you can you can 887 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 6: look across this thing and you can find players that 888 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 6: because it always happens. Coaches look at it and they say, 889 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 6: that guy, what you saw last year was not a 890 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 6: represented representation, a good representation of what that that guy 891 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,240 Speaker 6: can be. It was about other factors that were involved 892 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 6: that made them perform. 893 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 2: At a lesser level. Maybe this coaching staff looks at 894 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 2: Sam that way. 895 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 6: I have no idea, sure, because my value evaluation has 896 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 6: been I haven't seen enough from him in the time 897 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 6: he's been here, So I'm like, I'm not willing to 898 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 6: pay him big money. 899 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 2: But the coaches may look at it and say, there's 900 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 2: still value there. 901 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 6: We can use him in a role that makes sense, 902 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 6: that will make him a better players. It's Fouler last 903 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 6: year versus the year before, and Washington his role. He 904 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 6: had eight sacks here. He was a forgotten commodity, you know. 905 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 3: And that's where it's about to get real weird. 906 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 7: Cowboys just signed this past us specialist, Brandon Jordan. Yeah, 907 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 7: and I've been just keeping over his work because I'm 908 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 7: on the Internet and you keep you know, those dudes 909 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,840 Speaker 7: are on the Internet, like Duke is on the Internet, 910 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 7: Brian Jackson the Internet, and it's like I've seen, like 911 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 7: we all like the idea of him is that he's 912 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,839 Speaker 7: flipped these pass rush units that are regular units and 913 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 7: now they're like like. 914 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 3: Zach Allen for example with the Broncos. Whatever. 915 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,359 Speaker 7: Men watch him at like Boston College. He was never 916 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 7: a pass rush he dude. He was like a defensive 917 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 7: end guy. And then he gained a bunch of weight. 918 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 7: He played like an interior guy. He wasn't never sat guy. 919 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 7: Then he rolls out the bed and get like I 920 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 7: was talking about, got will still as more shots out 921 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 7: of him. He got like eighty some quarterback hits in 922 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 7: like two years now, like eight sacks or. 923 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 3: Something like that. 924 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 7: So now I'm like, all right, okay, so cool. Does 925 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:22,720 Speaker 7: he bring that out of sound? 926 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Because I think the end 927 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 3: of or just cowboy fans to tell you, like, I 928 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 3: don't know, maybe we. 929 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 2: Can improve he bring out Azaraku. 930 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 3: He'd like see Donovan's a part of it. 931 00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:31,840 Speaker 2: And that's wh I thing. I looked at Donovan. 932 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 6: I'm like, they didn't get the pass rush they may 933 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 6: have expected out of him, sure, but the different coaching 934 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 6: stuff they may be looking at him like, man, that 935 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 6: dude has seventeen sexes senior year in college. 936 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:44,760 Speaker 7: Sure we could do something now, now, maybe Christian Parker 937 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 7: looks at him, Hey man, can you fix Fouler? 938 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:47,359 Speaker 3: Hell y'all can? 939 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, and I can. 940 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 3: Fix these people. So now that's so that's even more 941 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 3: questions about what we're building. 942 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,760 Speaker 6: These And that's my point, Like, they're gonna be guys 943 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,399 Speaker 6: playing next year on this defense. If this defense is better, 944 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 6: there will be some guys that a lot of us 945 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 6: right now are thinking, does he don't you really need 946 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,319 Speaker 6: to upgrade that position? But what you'll find is you 947 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 6: really don't. There are some positions you absolutely have to. 948 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,439 Speaker 6: But there's somewhere you got a guy that is good 949 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,799 Speaker 6: enough with the right pieces around them that they can 950 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 6: be a productive member of this defense. 951 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 7: But just to be fair, I don't want the jones 952 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 7: Is to look at that and use that as a 953 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 7: reason to not spend and be aggressive in free agency. 954 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 7: I don't want that that's what they have to I 955 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 7: don't want them to be like, oh, we won't sign 956 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 7: some big name or a bigger talent because oh Brandon 957 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 7: gonna get Sam right. I don't want that to be 958 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 7: the case. I want you to get the big name.

It doesn't 974 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 6: solve all the problems, but it solves enough of them 975 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 6: where you feel like with the coaching staff that you've 976 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 6: assembled and you can do some things. 977 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 3: On And that's why I can't give my kick Tim 978 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:25,760 Speaker 3: million dollars. 979 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 5: Going exactly the show with y'all just made me mad 980 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 5: all over again again. Yeah how bad, frustrated, Like my 981 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 5: body temperature was okay, now I feel like I'm hot. 982 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 2: Mad just listening to this coming up. Yeah, yeah, a little. 983 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 5: Bit because and it's not because of you guys. It's 984 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 5: just again thinking about the fact that we wasted another season, 985 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,759 Speaker 5: the fact that that there are a group of players 986 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,439 Speaker 5: that we have question marks around, that that there's even 987 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,479 Speaker 5: a doubt like, oh, we had to wait and see 988 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:09,400 Speaker 5: what this new coaching staff, see how they do. I 989 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 5: wish I didn't have to wait until that. 990 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 2: But that the NFL, though I don't think that's unique 991 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,760 Speaker 2: to the Cowboys. I think that's the end of some cases. 992 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 5: In some cases, but a guy, for example, I think, 993 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 5: like you mentioned Marius, kind of falls in that category 994 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,280 Speaker 5: because he's only been what is it two years? 995 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, oh wow time. 996 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, because he should be coming up on a contact 997 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 6: contract here soon. But an example maybe it's maybe fourth 998 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 6: year coming up. 999 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, an example like him, He's a guy that I 1000 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 5: would have loved to know by last year what we 1001 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 5: really have in him, because we've seen him have flashes 1002 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 5: of good and then we see him even last year 1003 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 5: where he wasn't necessarily thriving. So again there's a question 1004 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 5: mark there. You mentioned him. He's another guy that you've 1005 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 5: seen moments and then other ones not so great. But 1006 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 5: you still have that question mark and the hope is 1007 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 5: again going to that fact that you're hoping that this 1008 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 5: year the new coaches can bring it out of these guys. Sure, 1009 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 5: but I would love to know, and there's a group 1010 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 5: of guys I would love to be in a spot 1011 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 5: where right now I feel confident, yeah, in those guys, 1012 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:26,480 Speaker 5: rather than having hope or hoping that this coaching staff 1013 00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 5: brings it out of them. So that's just a frustrating 1014 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 5: part that there was a whole year wasted in the 1015 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 5: sense that the defense really didn't show absolutely anything. There 1016 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:36,800 Speaker 5: were not thriving. 1017 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 2: In any way. 1018 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 5: So it's hard to make that evaluation and it's unfair 1019 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 5: to a lot of these guys. But I just feel 1020 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:47,240 Speaker 5: like it's a setback in a lot of ways for 1021 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:48,800 Speaker 5: some of these players. 1022 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 7: I think the younger, cheaper players have much more rope 1023 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 7: to grow and develop. I think the guys that their 1024 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 7: contract ran out to get more money, I don't think 1025 00:45:58,000 --> 00:45:58,879 Speaker 7: those guys will be better. 1026 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 6: So and my thing is, I just think that's the 1027 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 6: nature of the NFL. You got not speaking, you're a specialist, 1028 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 6: you got twenty two starters. You're always always gonna have 1029 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 6: guys that you have question marks about that you can't 1030 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 6: figure out in a year what they can become or 1031 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:17,959 Speaker 6: not become, because it's just that's the nature of having 1032 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 6: twenty two guys. 1033 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 5: In a normal year where you're kind of like, oh, 1034 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,400 Speaker 5: you can have a year where you're like, man, but 1035 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 5: last year was historical, historically bad. 1036 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, don't don't get me wrong. 1037 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 5: Usually every year I would agree with you, but it's 1038 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 5: just like last year it was so bad. 1039 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 2: No, it was bad. 1040 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,359 Speaker 6: It's like, okay, But that's also part of the thing 1041 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,800 Speaker 6: that means it just created more question marks for guys 1042 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 6: that are actually serviceable, good players that because everything was 1043 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 6: so bad, it made everybody look bad. 1044 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 7: Right, we can't just get a little better when you're 1045 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 7: like the worst defense in the league. Like if you're 1046 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,319 Speaker 7: the tenth best defense and you get a little better, 1047 00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,919 Speaker 7: all right, cool, you're not. We're the thirty second worst. 1048 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:01,879 Speaker 7: We get a little better, we're thirty if we're still bad, 1049 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying bad. So I would still 1050 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:05,360 Speaker 7: love the Jones is to like put the foot on 1051 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:06,320 Speaker 7: the peddl and like go get it. 1052 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 2: But they got to no matter. The question for me 1053 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 2: is how many. 1054 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:13,840 Speaker 6: It's not whether they will, yeah, it's how many frontline 1055 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 6: players are you willing to go out and get because 1056 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:17,719 Speaker 6: you got multiple issues you gotta as solve. 1057 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,400 Speaker 7: Not counting depth guys, I think anywhere between three to 1058 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 7: five makes sense. 1059 00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:23,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I agree, and I want. 1060 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 6: I would love if three of those guys are dudes 1061 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 6: players like the real players. 1062 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:31,800 Speaker 7: There's one dude on the East coast in the Southeast 1063 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 7: that we can't talk about to come play safety. 1064 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:33,560 Speaker 4: Man. 1065 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 3: I would love it if a dude like that could 1066 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:36,040 Speaker 3: come play safe for us. 1067 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:37,439 Speaker 2: Well, that's my point. 1068 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 6: When I started looking around, and I was like, whether 1069 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:43,360 Speaker 6: it's in free agency trades, you go get me a safety, 1070 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 6: a pass rusher, and a linebacker. 1071 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 3: That's a good start. 1072 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:47,919 Speaker 2: And I would look at this defense a. 1073 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 6: Totally different way, even with all the other problems you 1074 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 6: got where you like, I don't know about this, I 1075 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:53,520 Speaker 6: don't know about that.
