The 23 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: first three years of that was quarantine for me.

Then when they get 27 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: off work, they got other stuff to do. Then they 28 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: go home, they go to sleep on time so they 29 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: can get up in the morning, they go back to work. 30 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: So I had nothing to do. I was in the house, 31 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: just waiting, playing the game, watching TV for three years. 32 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: So we went three months in and I still got 33 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: another another thirty thirty three, thirty four before I start 34 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: feeling any type of edge. All right, So it's a 35 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: two man game today NEWI scrugs and Danny mccraige while 36 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: while man churches out he'll join us next week. I'll 37 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: start with what I like to say is tired news, 38 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: but it is news, and I feel like that it's 39 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: our job here to educate cowboy fans on what they 40 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: should and should not be listening to and it concerns 41 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: number four, Dak Prescott at the quarterback of the team. 42 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: So Chris Simms of NBC Sports came out with their 43 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: report yesterday. It said Dak Prescott turns down the highest 44 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: contract ever, turns down one hundred and seventy five million 45 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: dollars from the Cowboys for four years, and people on 46 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: social media went absolutely nuts about it. Danny, let me 47 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: tell you what frustrated me about it. I get a 48 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: phone call from my bosses. Okay, my Folks TV station 49 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: called me, hey, you've seen this, and Danny, what's thirty 50 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: five times five? You went to LSU got the number 51 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: seventy five, one seventy five, so it's one seventy five 52 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,799 Speaker 1: thirty five, yeah, one seventy five, So so one seventy five. 53 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: This is what we talked about in March, that the 54 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys had offered him thirty five million year and he 55 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: turned it down. So I'm like, this is not new. 56 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: This is what we've heard before. It was a five 57 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: year deal. Clarence Hill had reported about it and talked 58 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: about a guarantee of one hundred and six million dollars. Now, 59 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: throughout this process, Cowboys fans, if you've been on the 60 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: Players Lodge or on any of the Dallas Cowboys podcast, 61 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: you know that Dak Prescott wants a four year deal. 62 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: What have we seen for Jared Goff four years? And 63 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: Rodgers four years, Russell Wilson the Seahawks four years? What 64 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: did Ryan tanney Hill just get four years? Carson Wentz 65 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: four year? This is what guys are doing. Dak doesn't 66 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: want a five year deal. So when you offered, allegedly 67 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: the report said five year deal and one hundred and 68 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: six million guarantee, Jared Goff had one hundred and ten 69 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: million guaranteed on a four year deal. Now, Danny, what 70 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: do you think the agent and you and I have 71 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: spoken about this? This is not this is not so 72 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: much about Dak is this is the agent, Todd France 73 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: versus the Cowboys. Of course he's gonna say no to that. 74 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: And it's May. When is the deadline deal for Dak 75 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: Prescott on this franchise tag? It is July fifteenth. And 76 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: let me educate everyone who doesn't understand the exclusive franchise 77 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 1: tag here. All right, So the Cowboys are going to 78 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 1: pay Dak Prescott a minimum of thirty one point four 79 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: million dollars. Okay, that is what Dak's twenty twenty salary is. 80 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: If he only plays under the exclusive franchise tag. They 81 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: have until July fifteenth to come up where they long 82 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: term deal. On July sixteen, if there's no deal, then 83 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: Dak will play twenty twenty for thirty one point four 84 00:04:55,279 --> 00:05:00,039 Speaker 1: million dollars. That is what the NFL salary and the 85 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: agents they've all. If you the owners who players agree to, 86 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 1: that's what they pay him in the franchise tag. Now 87 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: they have until the fifteenth to get a deal done. 88 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 1: I've said this before. The Cowboys usually go down to 89 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: the end on these deals and they get done. So 90 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: Dak presscott asking for thirty five million dollars. Let me 91 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 1: tell you why that is not some crazy number. So, Danny, 92 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: we just established the franchise tag this year, thirty one 93 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: point four million dollars for Dad. Let's say he plays 94 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: twenty twenty under the franchise tag and then the Cowboys 95 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: tag him again. He'll get a twenty percent increase in salary. 96 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: So that would mean in twenty twenty one, Dak would 97 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: make thirty seven point six eight million dollars. You go 98 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: ahead and add that up together, that's a two year 99 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: total for sixty nine point zero eight million dollars. You 100 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: go ahead and divide that by two, that's thirty four 101 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: point five million dollars average. So you look at these 102 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: two years, that's where you're gonna get the thirty five 103 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: million dollars number from. Okay, So that's that is what 104 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: that is. Okay. So they got things they got to 105 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: fix on it. They got things that they got to 106 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: work on. So I just feel like I'm frustrated listening 107 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: to people. I'm frustrated listening to people when they talk 108 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: about Dax and his money because it's out there miss 109 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: on the web. So let me turn off, my turn off, 110 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: my my, my my series started talking to me. But 111 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: um so for me, that's frustrating. And I did. They 112 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: had my bosses called them. My bosses are like, what's 113 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: going on? My bosses are called like, what's going on? Like? 114 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: Why are we believing these reports that have already been 115 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,239 Speaker 1: out there? We've already told you what it is. So anyway, 116 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: that's my rant, ran, that's my rant. Cowboy fan is 117 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: mad about Dac and they shouldn't be at all. This 118 00:06:46,440 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: This deal will get done in right, So I just 119 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: like I think that the reports that keep coming out, 120 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: they all are disappointed to make I love you all right? 121 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: You know what we got with a cool little audio 122 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: difficulty here.

So I started off, 228 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: and I just my complaint was, we had a report 229 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 1: by Chris Simms on Dak Prescott and his contract and 230 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: his money. There's nearly nothing new, and if anything, there 231 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 1: was stuff in there that said that really didn't make sense. 232 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 1: And and Danny one of the things that got added 233 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: on to this so called report, which by the way, 234 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: was refuted by Adam Schefter. He has being in in 235 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: rapport of Men of Hell network that Dak wanted forty 236 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: five million dollars in year number number five. If people 237 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: were just going liveing on it, going crazy. Hum. It's 238 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: maddening to me because we just take anything now, if 239 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 1: it's on social media, we just say yes, number Chris Simms. 240 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: I like Chris Simms. But Chris Simms up in New 241 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: Jersey isn't cover the Cowboys. He's reported on something that 242 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: Clarence Hill had back in March and doesn't even truly 243 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: have the numbers correct according to the people there. So 244 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: fans are killing Dak Prescott now, calling you greedy. Just 245 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: on the Twitter page right now, somebody said Dak Prescott 246 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,439 Speaker 1: is pricing himself out of the National Football League. No, 247 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: he's not not at all, Danny. He's Danny. Danny. You 248 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: you you've played this game and you've seen where the 249 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: salary cap is going. We've heard Patrick Mahomes is going 250 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: to get a new deal in the catch Cheeses said 251 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: that they want it's gonna average start by forty million 252 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: dollars for him forty. So let's say Patrick Mahomes gets 253 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: forty million dollars this year or the twenty twenty one. 254 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: If Dank prescotts making forty five and twenty twenty five. 255 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: That's gonna be a steal the way the prices are 256 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: going here. So so there there's my complaint. You go ahead, Yeah, No, 257 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: I don't think people are paying attention to to five 258 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: years from now the last year to deal. What you 259 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: really should think be thinking about. It's the guarantee money 260 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: and how much he'll make over the the years of 261 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: his contract that he's he will for sure be here. 262 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: We know a lot of the times in these uh 263 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: in contracts in general and in the NFL, players don't 264 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: usually make it to that last year of the deal. 265 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: By that time, teams are looking for cheaper ways to 266 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: get things done, or they're moving on to the first 267 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: round draft pick, or finding a quarterback for the future 268 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: or the dB for the future. So one, even even 269 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: with this being something that's not even true, fans should 270 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: look at what it is that Dak will actually get. Now, 271 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: you also have to look at the fact that none 272 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: of this stuff that has come out has been confirmed 273 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: by Dak's team or the Cowboys, so to me, it's 274 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: not true. So you just just reading stuff that people 275 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: are putting out there that's not true, and you're letting that, uh, 276 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: you know, shape your expectations of what Dak should get 277 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: and your your your look on what he's what you 278 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: think he's worth, and it's not true. So just fall back, 279 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: wait till you actually read through something that says the 280 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: Cowboy he said, or this is from Dak's team, and 281 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: then you get a confirmation and then didn't make your 282 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: judgment on that. But you know, in this Corona nineteen, 283 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: this time, it's gonna be a lot of reports that 284 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: keep coming out that are false. So by this time 285 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: you should be able to kind of decipher that none 286 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: of this is real until you see it coming from 287 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: some trusted sources like Adam Schefter or somebody from the Cowboys. 288 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: Now you bring up a very good point. We don't 289 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: have live games right now due to COVID nineteen, so 290 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: people are looking for things, and Dak Prescott keeps staying 291 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: in the crosshairs of these debate shows that people are 292 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: into and they react to all the time. I had 293 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: one fan ed sat around here since his Twitter handles 294 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: dumb Luck twenty ten and he says, if Dak holds out, 295 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: what's the worst that could happen? Danny, will you please 296 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: let this man know that there's not gonna be a 297 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: holdout from Dak Prescott. Know for one, it won't be 298 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: a hold out one. The franchise tag is there, so 299 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: I believe me and knew we have something going that 300 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: he has signed it or he won't, or he'd have 301 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: a new deal before Dak will be playing this year. 302 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: And what's the worst that could happen? Do they remember 303 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: from twenty thirteen to twenty fifteen, like we had Matt 304 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 1: Castle in there, we had a bunch of backup quarterbacks 305 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: Romo when got hurt, and none of them panned out 306 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: for us. What's the worst that can happen? We could 307 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: go four and twelve, we could go one in fifteen. 308 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: That's the worst that could happen. So let's not wish 309 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 1: on that, and let's hope that Dak gets something done 310 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: because it can get pretty bad. And this is Danny 311 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: once again where I go to. I feel like our 312 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:47,919 Speaker 1: show is designed to help fans understand how this league works. 313 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott doesn't have to play in the preseason games, 314 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,239 Speaker 1: he could skip all the training camp, but when it 315 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 1: comes to the season, he came out hold out, He's 316 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: going to sign the franchise tender and he's going to play. 317 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,199 Speaker 1: And also to make sure we look at this from 318 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: a smart standpoint. If Dak Prescott doesn't play, he doesn't 319 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: help his money go up the next year. I think 320 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 1: everybody can look at Lebon Bell and when he decided 321 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: to skip the whole season for the Pittsburgh Sees, that 322 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 1: was used against him, and that was a running back. 323 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: Quarterbacks don't do things like that. So Dak Prescott is 324 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: going to play for the Cowboys and Shield. It really 325 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 1: just comes down to two things. Is it on a 326 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: one year deal or is it on a four to 327 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 1: five year deal. That's one of those two scenarios. Is 328 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: going to happen long term or one year deal? And 329 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 1: I believe it's gonna be a long term deal. Danny 330 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 1: right now is thinking it's gonna be just on a 331 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: one year deal. And by the way, Danny, this week, 332 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: I ended up talking to a friend of mine who's 333 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: covered the NFL for over thirty years and says he 334 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: thinks it's gonna be a one year deal the way 335 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: it's going right now. So you I hate to see 336 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 1: you be right again, but it's it's not hard to see, man, 337 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 1: that Dak wants to get his money. He wants to 338 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,439 Speaker 1: get money multiple times over the next five years. So, 339 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: like I said, he wants a four year deal so 340 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: he can hit that market again and get paid again. 341 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 1: And as I'm not mad at them for they get 342 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 1: all the money that you can. So yeah, I'm seeing 343 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 1: a one year thing. And what also happens with Dak 344 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: not holding out and not playing for an entire year. 345 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: Dak doesn't know the landscape of what quarterbacks are gonna 346 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: be good for in college, what teams will be looking 347 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: to rebuild and draft the number one. It's a lot 348 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 1: of thing that goes, a lot of things that go 349 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 1: into that. He can't just he won't just sit out 350 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: and expect to be paid a lot by by a 351 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: team just because he's Dak Prescott. Like you're not a 352 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: gym and you don't know what direction some of these 353 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 1: teams will be going in next year. So that rolling 354 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: the dice like that is a little rough, and I 355 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 1: don't think he'll do that. His agent wouldn't advise him 356 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: to do that either. Danny. You you just jarred my 357 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 1: memory when you set that. Where does Dak Prescott make 358 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: the bulk of his money? Right now? It's off the field, 359 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: off the field. So there's new way you're gonna sit out, 360 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: because if you're sitting out, sleep numbers not gonna want 361 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: to pay you. Oid Goes Yogurt, Campbell's Chucky soup, uh 362 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 1: seven eleven Freedom, all these advertisers that he indorses, all 363 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: these companies indorses. That's no what folks, go ahead and 364 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: take that out of your mind. All right? So so 365 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 1: I feel right there. We're giving you a We're giving 366 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: you a public service to understand, so you can go 367 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,199 Speaker 1: and talk to your friends intelligently about these conversations with 368 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. Now, Danny, did we have a bet 369 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:28,360 Speaker 1: on this one year deal versus long term deal? This 370 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: is this is what happened. We didn't bet. It was 371 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: a right now to me, it's just a gentleman's bet 372 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: where I'll be right or you'll be wrong. You didn't 373 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: really bet anything on it because you still you still 374 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: feel a little salty from the popados. But hey, what 375 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 1: can I say. I'll let you choose the restaurant if 376 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:49,360 Speaker 1: you take the bet. Uh you can? You can think 377 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: get back with me because I want her, I want 378 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: hers to be on and hear this too, because I 379 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: need a love to witness in studio on phone to 380 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: confirm that you said, okay to this. Okay, yeah, I'm 381 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: not gonna make the bet, but I still am convinced 382 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: all day long that we are going to see reign. 383 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 1: Dakota Prescott signed a four year contract July fifteenth or 384 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: July fourteen or fifteen. I believe it will get done. 385 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: You took us lost a guy, You took it a 386 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: step forth. So now it's gonna be a four year. 387 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 1: It's gonna be what Dad wants. Yes, okay, yeah, all right. 388 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: That that that's that's another level to this, to this 389 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: right or wrong we see. Okay, all right, I'm glad 390 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: you said it because let me go ahead and explain it. 391 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: And this is also for cowboy fans out here. So 392 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:42,160 Speaker 1: you now understand the agent plays a real big part 393 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: of this. And Danny you know this from having teammates. 394 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: The agent game praise upon other guys. So let's say 395 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: dak signed a five year deal in Todd Francs in 396 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: dot Tod Francis agent, you know, Drew Rosenhaus and Lee 397 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: Steinberg and these other agents say they're gonna say, wait, 398 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: why do he have dak signed a five year deal 399 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: when Dak is twenty six years old, could have got 400 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: back on the market at thirty. If everybody else in 401 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: the game is sitting around here signing four year deals, 402 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,479 Speaker 1: Wins four year deal, Golf for year deal, Russell Wilson 403 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: four year and Rodgers for you to Ryan Tannehill four 404 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: year deal, that's why it's gonna be. If everybody else 405 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 1: out there is signing a four, you're tired, friends, and 406 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: you signed a five, that's not good for you because 407 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: in five years, who knows where the cap could be. 408 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: One of the things that we've consistently seen is a 409 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: salary cap going up now with COVID nineteen. Who knows 410 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: where it is. But right now, the NFL's on schedule 411 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 1: to play. So if I'm tired, friends, I can't sit 412 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: around here and go do four and everybody else is 413 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:49,919 Speaker 1: doing five. So so to those to those false reports 414 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: and those Cowboys fans, though, what if the last two 415 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: years of that number of that contract, the numbers are 416 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 1: astronomical to where it would adjust for what the salary 417 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: cap may be, and you signed five year deal and 418 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: you're getting paid the same amounts, but whatever the quarterbacks 419 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: will be making on average or a little bit above 420 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 1: in the fifth or fourth and fifth year of that deal. Yes, 421 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: just look at as an agent that makes you Okay, 422 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: look at Cam Newton's deal eighteen million bucks this year. 423 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,399 Speaker 1: Carolina got out of it, but that was what you know, 424 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 1: Cam signed that deal way back when we're thinking, wow, 425 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: twenty million dollars a lot of money, and now we 426 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: see eighteen million dollars a quarterback as a bargain. So yeah, 427 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 1: if he signs a five year deal and in according 428 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: to that Chris Simms report, forty five million bucks is 429 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: way he was getting in the fifth year. By the 430 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: time we get to twenty twenty five, that's not gonna 431 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 1: see or be a lot of money the way the 432 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: NFL salary cap is going. So but I just think 433 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, it's gonna be a 434 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: deal for four years for Dak Prescott and then Jerry 435 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: Jones is gonna make it happen. Jerry said he wants him. 436 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: They say they're considering family. He's seventy seven years old. 437 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,679 Speaker 1: He wants another Super Bowl. As much as they like 438 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton, they want Dak Prescott to be the guy. 439 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: So that's why I'm convinced something, we'll get done. The 440 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: one guy I was truly worried about leaving Danny was 441 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper, and he didn't leave. They ended up getting 442 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 1: their guy. So I believe that at the expensive back. 443 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: And let's not forget that Jerry Jones and these family 444 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 1: members dads. There are guys that Jason Garrett who are 445 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: consider family members. They are no longer playing with the 446 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: Cowboys or coach. So yeah, you could be a family 447 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: member and still not get what you want. Now, you know, 448 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: the Dad thing was an interesting deal because Scott Lennahan 449 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 1: and Jason Garrett they were done with it and so 450 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: and it took it. Remember now, it took a minute 451 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: before they got that Jason Garrett was able to get 452 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: Dad's out to build it. Jerry was the last hold out. 453 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: He was the guy who still wanted and they had 454 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: to go in there along with Stephen and convinced Jerry, hey, 455 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: this has to be done. But I think this was different. 456 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: They accomplish it, Yes, but Stephen is on board here, 457 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: Jerry's on board, and Mike McCarthy's on board. So and 458 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 1: Will mcclect. So you got you got four people, you 459 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: got decision makers. Who are all on board. Number four, 460 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 1: des Bryant had lost decision makers and so that ended 461 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 1: up costing him. So plus we know all field distracts. 462 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: It's a different between these two players. So give me 463 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: this one last thing on that. So so let's say 464 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:20,199 Speaker 1: Dak size this, you lock fifteen franchise tag. What are 465 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: the Cowboys lose from that? Right, they get him for 466 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: the year, McCarthy gets to see if he's the quarterback 467 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: that he hosts for he could and the Cowboys can 468 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: still pay him next year. You think Dak is too 469 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 1: upset and too angry to take a top match quarterback 470 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: next year after playing out this one just because the quarterback. 471 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: I mean, they didn't give him a long term deal 472 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: at twenty twenty. I haven't considered that for the very 473 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: reason they keep telling you they wanted and they said, 474 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: but they got him where they got it yep, right. 475 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying I just see them getting a 476 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:52,959 Speaker 1: long term deal done because they said that's what they 477 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 1: wanted to do. They got that done with Cooper. They 478 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: ended up getting it done with Zike, So I just 479 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: don't see how they don't get it done with that 480 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: press guy here that you know that's my belief. Man. 481 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go on history Parcelsiers have that great line. 482 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: All I can go by is what I see, and 483 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: what I've seen before is when the Jones said they 484 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: wanted a guy, they get their guy. And I just 485 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: believe that he'll get done up more time when Church 486 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: gets back. But we'll put something on it, all right, Dane. 487 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: Let me transition into another um thirsty rumor the cowboy 488 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: fans love to jump on, and that's Jamal Adams, the 489 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: safe before the New York Jets, who's a hebrought native 490 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 1: who played at the SEC College and he's he's not 491 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: getting the deal done right now with the Jets. And 492 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 1: then there's a rumor that the Jets are are gonna 493 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: put him on the market. Look, I love Jamal Adams. 494 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,439 Speaker 1: You love Jamal Adams because he's an LSU Tiger. We 495 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 1: know what a special player he is. But trading for 496 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 1: Jamal Adams is not just as simple as making a 497 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: trade for him. You have to pay him. He's going 498 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: to want to be paid, and the top salaries of 499 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,439 Speaker 1: the safety, so we're talking about possibly fifteen million dollars 500 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: a year. If you're trying to sign Dak Prescott. He's 501 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: averaging thirty five million a year, and you got Zep 502 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: making his money, you got Cooper making his money, you 503 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: got Tyring Smith, Zack Martin making their money. I mean 504 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 1: it tanks making his money. There's not enough salary cap 505 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: to add in a fifteen million dollars a year safety 506 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: and he's gonna want to be paid that money. That's 507 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 1: my opinion. You tell me what you're thinking. Let me 508 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: tell you something. I'm with you all the way on 509 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: this one. The only way that Javal Adams get traded 510 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: to the Cowboys is if they're making a swap five 511 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,239 Speaker 1: high Clint Dix. That's the only way he's getting here. 512 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 1: It got to be an even swap. And if they're 513 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: both playing on one year deals and you see what 514 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 1: happens after that. Other than that, I don't see it happening. 515 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: There's no way for us to pay him afterwards. So 516 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: you just Clint Dix is on this one year deal 517 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 1: to see if they can make it happen this year. 518 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: If you want to do the same thing with Jamal Adams, 519 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 1: will get it for cheap and not have to pay 520 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 1: him again, then maybe that'll work for other than that 521 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: there's no way he's coming here, even if the Jets 522 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: trade him or don't sign him for the for the 523 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 1: paceieable future. Now a Cowboy fan, and this is what, 524 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: I can't say this enough. We love the player, the 525 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys love the play, but the price tag is going 526 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,199 Speaker 1: to be the issue. And he's Jamal Ladams is a 527 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: young man here this next contract, you gotta go ahead 528 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: and get as much money as you can now, unless 529 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 1: Jamal Aladams wants to start coming to the Cowboys and 530 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: give them a discount of deal, which I don't believe 531 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: he will. I don't see it happening. Look, the Cowboys 532 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 1: loved Earl Thomas, and Danny wouldn't have happened with Earl. 533 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: They passed on. They said, man, we like you, but no, 534 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: and Earl Thomas wanted to come here. But what an earl? 535 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: Earl said, I need one more I need one more paycheck. 536 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 1: And he got paid a lot of money from Baltimore. 537 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: Ended up being a fantastic decision for him as a 538 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: Ravens had a very good year with the number one 539 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: seed in the AFC last year. But these things, Danny, 540 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: you know, they come down the money because when you're 541 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: a football player. Your body has a shelf life on it. Yeah, 542 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: you could. So the Earl Thomas thing is a little 543 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 1: different than than Jamal Adams, because yes, Jamal Adams is 544 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 1: a little younger, But you got to think about not 545 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: that many teams value the safety position that much because 546 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: depending on how you play the game, if you're not 547 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: able to turn the ball over, you're playing back deep 548 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: black Earl Thomas, or you being a Trump Polamalu type 549 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: player to where you can you can get interceptions and 550 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: disrupt the game that way, outside of making making sacks, 551 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 1: when you blitz and kind of being an enforcer, then 552 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 1: it's tough to pay you the fifteen million, especially when 553 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: you have other things you need to worry about. And 554 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 1: Jamal Adams, as great as the safety as he is, 555 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: he is not the same like prototypical player as Earl 556 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: Thomas or Troy polamala He doesn't do those type of things. 557 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: He's a he's a strong safety. Now he can play 558 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: the middle, but he won't make those same type of 559 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: players and turn the ball over as an Earl Thomas 560 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: or Troy polamalal. So it's it's a little difficult to 561 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: get in get into that and saying we're gonna pay 562 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: this guy to be on this team that much money 563 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 1: when he is he's not that type of first the 564 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: top player and to turn the ball over like that. 565 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: Now he makes plays, and all respect to Jamal Adams, 566 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: but it's that's just tough, especially for here with the Cowboys, 567 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: when we just got to talking about how you're gonna 568 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: pay that all right, Danny mcraig knew he scrugs players 569 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: lines right here on a Friday. Now we went through 570 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: all that. Okay, we went through all that. I felt 571 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: like you and I explained that very well. And this 572 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: is what we get right here on the Cowboy Twitter 573 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: page here says would you give up Gallup at a 574 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: number one? I say, hell no, no, you would do that. 575 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: So you're talking about having the top offense in the 576 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: league all paper right now, and you're gonna give that 577 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: up for a safety and you already got too starting 578 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: caliber guys. So what Jamal Adams will have to bring 579 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 1: to the team will have to be so far ahead 580 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: of what we already have to make that trade worth it. 581 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: And I just don't see a safety being able to 582 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: make that type of contribution when you already have two 583 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: guys back there who can play the game, and they're 584 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: proving players in the league. All right, here's somebody else 585 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: on Cowboys Twitter says Mike Fisher said they had an 586 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 1: extension for Adams last season. Okay, let me just put 587 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: this in terms that everyone understands. Last year you had 588 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett as a head coach, and last year you 589 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: were doing things different. It's a different year now, and 590 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,479 Speaker 1: you've already done different things. This is a different defense. 591 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: So whatever the Cowboys thought about doing and having conversations 592 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: about Jamal Adams and what they were gonna do, guess what, 593 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: throw it all out the window because it's different now. 594 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,479 Speaker 1: What We don't live in the same world that we 595 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 1: did in October and November. Okay, we just don't. So 596 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: whatever the Cowboys thought about doing, they're not doing. I'm sorry, 597 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 1: I can't emphasize this enough. Friends. I love Adams, he's 598 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: a good player, but you have to start thinking about 599 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: the cost. And the Cowboys told you this last year. 600 00:31:56,200 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: Ox Star California. Hey, there's only so much pie and Truefitially, Danny, 601 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: you know this because you play defensive back. Cowboys don't 602 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: pay safeties. They don't do it, and they're not if 603 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: they didn't want to pay Earl Thomas, I don't seem 604 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 1: wanting to pay Jamal Adams right now either. It's kind 605 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 1: of a something they wanted, it didn't happen, and now 606 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 1: they're moving on and you just you just can't afford 607 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: to do it right now. Plus, Danny, we hadn't talked 608 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: about this in Travis Frederick has retired and they're gonna 609 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: have to figure out how they deal with the cap 610 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: money from him, most likely June first they cut him 611 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: and then they spread it over two years. But that's 612 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: a hit right there where you got to think about 613 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: how you take care of that salary cap hit because 614 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: Travis at the time was the highest paid center in 615 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: the game. Some people are passed it, but it's still 616 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: a high number that the Cowboys have got to start 617 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: to manage other their cap as well. Yeah, it's gonna 618 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: be rough, Like me and me and Newey are on 619 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: the same page with this Jamal Adams thing, and we 620 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: were on the same page last year when people were 621 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: talking about giving up so much for them, and we 622 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: just didn't think it was worth it. And I still 623 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: don't think it's worth it this year. We got we 624 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: got other things to worry about, mainly our quarterback, and 625 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,959 Speaker 1: we don't need to be tying up money for the 626 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: next few years depending on if we're gonna pay Jamal Adams. 627 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: Are out of trading away key pieces that we already 628 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: have and messing up something that we already think is good. 629 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,959 Speaker 1: It just it doesn't make sense. And as much as 630 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: you love the player, I love him on the Jets, 631 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 1: not the Cowboys. Let's talk about a current Dallas Cowboy 632 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: guy who's here and some big news this week. That's 633 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: Alton Smith, defensive end being reinstated by the National Football League. 634 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: Alt is thirty years old. Yes, he's missed some seasons 635 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: here in the NFL, and Daddy, you've been skeptical about 636 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: what Aldon Smith can do. But what the Cowboys want 637 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 1: in terms of trying to get this guy back on 638 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: the field, A major hurdle has been cleared. This guy 639 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: can go ahead and play and start to participate in 640 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:48,959 Speaker 1: the virtual workouts. Your thoughts, I mean, I think it's 641 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 1: a big step. I had no doubt that he would 642 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: get reinstated. I would still be a fool to think 643 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: that just based off the short time and he's been 644 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 1: here that he won't hit a hurdle or running to 645 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 1: an issue once we get back to playing ball. This 646 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen thing has been a positive for him in 647 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: terms of being on quarantine and lockdown and not being 648 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,959 Speaker 1: able to We're not having to be around certain things 649 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,840 Speaker 1: that may have triggered him in the past. And if 650 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 1: he keeps going this way, he's on the path to 651 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 1: where I think he can he can succeed. But you know, 652 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: this short amount of time after so many mess ups 653 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,359 Speaker 1: and so many repeat things that were outside of just 654 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 1: alcohol and any other type of thing. It was physical 655 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: stuff as well. So I think we got to give 656 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: it a little bit more time. And I'm skeptical, and 657 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: I think I would just be a fool not to be. 658 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: I just got to see it. The proof is in 659 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: the pudding, and he got a long way to go. Okay, 660 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 1: So all the smith is in. You're hoping to get 661 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: Randy Gregory reinstated as well. So and this is how 662 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the two players. If the two players 663 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:58,439 Speaker 1: can combine to get seven eight sacks between then I'll 664 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 1: be happy, I mean, because gonna keep my expectations. Look so, 665 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: if these guys can come in and bring eight sacks 666 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: off that off one side, man, I'll be happy with that. 667 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: And I'm going to assue we get Tank Lawrence of 668 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: two years ago, two or three years ago when he 669 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: was putting up Pro Bowl numbers, And if we get 670 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: Tanking fifteen sacks a game, if you get Tank in 671 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: fifteen sacks a game and you get eight on the 672 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: other side here, that kind of pressure right there, and 673 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: then what the other guys can do, and then being 674 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: able to have a Jay Jalen Smith blitz and try 675 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 1: and get this Cowboys team up to the forty sacks 676 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 1: a game. Then then I think that you're really starting 677 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,359 Speaker 1: to cook with some gas here. You just have to 678 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: get some more production with Robert Quinn going on that 679 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: other side. I want to be I want to be 680 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 1: clear as a as a true football watcher and lover 681 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: of the game when we talk about this, because I 682 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 1: want people to understand what you mean when you say 683 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 1: eight sacks. We do not mean four sacks in one game. 684 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 1: We mean production throughout the entire season. So Adrian Claybourne 685 00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, when Tiring was out of 686 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 1: the game, he had an amazing game. I think he 687 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: had six sacks, right, We're not talking about having that 688 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 1: for the entire season. We want production as and when 689 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 1: you say eight sacks, let's say a sack every other 690 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: game or a sack each game from each one, not 691 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 1: just a clump of them, you know, because those stats 692 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: sometimes can be misleading throughout the entire season. So my 693 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 1: looking forward is if these guys can be productive throughout 694 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: the entire season and spread those sacks out if they 695 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: only get eight, make sure that they are big moments 696 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,839 Speaker 1: and not all just at one time. And I think 697 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: that will work for us. But when you look at 698 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: those things, make sure that you're seeing that this is 699 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 1: spread out over the entire season and watch the entirety 700 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 1: of the game and not just base it off all 701 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 1: this guy had had eight sexs because we don't the 702 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: story is not told and just just looking at that paper. 703 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: And I also didn't add in, you know, Tyrone Crawford, 704 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 1: who's going to be back healthy and what he can bring. 705 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: So if Tyrone Crawford can come in here and give 706 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,399 Speaker 1: you four or five sacks, I mean that's I'm looking 707 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: at it as three guys at one spot trying to 708 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,359 Speaker 1: try to really kind of recreate what Robert Quinn had 709 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: last chief. So if you can get him kind of 710 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 1: match that production that Quinn had on one side and 711 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 1: get Tank being back to what he was on the 712 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 1: other side, and said adding in that Mike, no one's 713 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,439 Speaker 1: gonna blitz a whole lot more than what we saw 714 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 1: for Rod Marinelli. You get the sack numbers up for 715 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: this team and try to get yourself in the top ten. Danny, 716 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 1: That to me is where they need to be. They 717 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 1: need to be top ten and sacks, and we know 718 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: they need to figure out a way to at least 719 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 1: get out the bottom half of the league of interceptions. 720 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:32,879 Speaker 1: Then the Cowboys can make a difference. We know they're 721 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 1: going to score some points. It's defensively where they've got 722 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: to make some changes. And Xavier Woods was on a 723 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 1: media call this week and talked about how they're got 724 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 1: a whole lot of different concepts going into this defense 725 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: and they're gonna do a whole lot more than play 726 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 1: cover three. Personally, I found I found listening to him 727 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: kind of exciting. What about you, Yeah, man, I found 728 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: it exciting just based on the fact that what I've 729 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,440 Speaker 1: been hearing about Christian Schard's defense was they lined up 730 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: where where they were going to be, and they played 731 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,759 Speaker 1: from there, and it was like, Hey, the offense knows 732 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,839 Speaker 1: what we're gonna do, but we're still going to stop them. 733 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 1: I think the best defenses are able to disguise and 734 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:12,839 Speaker 1: trick those quarterbacks when especially when you play guys like 735 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady, you can't show them the 736 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: mill before they snapped the ball because they'll read it 737 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: and they'll hit you with a nine ball or they'll 738 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: find a way to get that first down. So it's 739 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 1: exciting to hear that we'll be putting more emphasis on 740 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 1: disguise and hiding what we'll be doing on defense. And 741 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,319 Speaker 1: also he spoke about, you know, we'll be a little 742 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: bit more diverse and running running some blitzes and running 743 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: some mixed coverages, so maybe cover sixes where you're running 744 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 1: two on one side for on the other, just depending 745 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: on what the what the offense is usually doing. So 746 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 1: I think it's it's great to be creative. I think 747 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: it's also tough and this time, like I said, when 748 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 1: me and Church used to talk about during the lockout, 749 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,840 Speaker 1: when Rob Ryan was here, he has a complex defense 750 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: some similar to what it sounds like Xavier Woods is 751 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 1: talking about and it was hard for us to get 752 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 1: that understood with the time that we had together being 753 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,479 Speaker 1: on the field. So it'll be interesting to see how 754 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 1: that works and how much of that defense they'll be 755 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 1: able to put in when they're able to get back 756 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: on the field. All right, Danny, I'm reading the Cowboys 757 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: Twitter page here and I've got I've stopped in my 758 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,320 Speaker 1: tracks when I absolutely saw this. I want to go 759 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: ahead and read this to you because we're sitting here 760 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 1: talking about Tyrone Crawford and Kenneth Junior. Eight A says, 761 00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 1: cut Tyrone Crawford or restructure his deal. He is overpaid. Now, 762 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: we just spoke about Alden Smith and Randy Gregory being 763 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: rand stated, what's the one thing that you cannot do 764 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,439 Speaker 1: with these two guys if you're the Cowboys, you can't 765 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:43,240 Speaker 1: just trust them? Absolutely not. Okay, Why are you cutting 766 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 1: Tyrone Crawford like you don't need him, Danny. You've played 767 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: all defenses where you've seen injuries happen. Guys rarely finished 768 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 1: the season feeling one. You need bodies on the d line. 769 00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: Let me tell you, let me tell you this about 770 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 1: Tyrone Crawford. Because his worth is more than his play. 771 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 1: If you talk to any player in the locker room 772 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 1: or any other staff in there, the leader of that 773 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 1: defensive line, the guy that keeps those guys in check 774 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 1: and in order and holds them accountable, it's Tyron Crawford. 775 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: And you saw a drop off last year when he 776 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 1: was injured. So just based off what I'm hearing and 777 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,720 Speaker 1: what I saw on the field, this guy's more important 778 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 1: than anybody could ever expect, just based off his leadership ability. 779 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 1: Now he can play the game as well, and if 780 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: he's healthy, he's one of the top guys in his 781 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: position in the league, and I think he can get 782 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 1: back to that. But we also need that leadership to 783 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 1: hold people accountable so we can get that production that 784 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: we need from the D line. And with Randy Gregory 785 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:43,879 Speaker 1: and all the smith coming back, you're definitely gonna need 786 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:48,800 Speaker 1: a strong leader in that room. Danny throwing position flexibility 787 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: that Tyrone Crawford has given the Cowboys, and I don't 788 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 1: think fans understand that when guys were getting hurt on 789 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:56,799 Speaker 1: the inside, Tyrone Crawford with for defense and they start 790 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 1: playing the defense check. He's a guy that gives a 791 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: coordinator like Mike Nolan, a lot of choices. And if 792 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 1: you listen to Mike McCarthy talk about his time in 793 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 1: Green Bay and he goes back to that Super Bowl 794 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: year and how many guys they had to go through 795 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: that year they ended up winning the Super Bowl over 796 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,720 Speaker 1: at At and T Savium. You need plenty of guys. 797 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 1: And on the D line of position flexibility the guy 798 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 1: like Tyrone Crawford has. He's not overpaid, folks. He's been hurt, 799 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 1: but he's not overpaid. And what he can do. It's 800 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,439 Speaker 1: sometimes we just want to look at everything. It has 801 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: to come down to what kind of sacks somebody gives 802 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: you on the D line. It's really you have to 803 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,439 Speaker 1: go deeper than that. It's like looking at what's on top. 804 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: You gotta look at you know where I'm gonna go 805 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,279 Speaker 1: with this now, because you've been on D line pretty hard, 806 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 1: You've been on d law pretty hard. I guess it's more. 807 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 1: It's more to it than just the number of sacks 808 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 1: that the guy gets. All right, I'm glad the same 809 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 1: page about it now. He does need more sex. But 810 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 1: if we watch the tape, DeMarcus Lawrence was a force 811 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,879 Speaker 1: to be reckon with especially in the on the goal 812 00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 1: line and disrupting plays and helping other guys get sacks 813 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: as well. Chris, I just had to throw it out 814 00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: there from from from our arguments, from from your charous episodes. Yes, 815 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 1: but but I would also say this, you and I 816 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:21,439 Speaker 1: expect more than five sacks next year. Oh yeah, I think, yeah, yeah. 817 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: For the salary that you're making that they they're gonna 818 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 1: want more than five sacks. And you and I know this. 819 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 1: If he has another five sacks season, they're not going 820 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 1: to win as much if he's sitting up here putting 821 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:32,799 Speaker 1: up ten or twelve sacks, because we know what a 822 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: difference it makes, and the cowboys in that department have 823 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 1: had issues. But I'll say this, one reason why I 824 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 1: expect him to have more sacks is I believe Mike 825 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:42,879 Speaker 1: know him, will be better with the scheme and he'll 826 00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:44,800 Speaker 1: blitz a lot more. And that's gonna I think you 827 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 1: gotta help sometimes help scheme it so your guys can't 828 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: make plays so well. How I like that? Do you 829 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 1: like that? Danny Crag like that? I love that. I'm 830 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,359 Speaker 1: also going to add this song. I expect us to 831 00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 1: be playing with the lead next year to where we 832 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: have the opportunity to get more sacks like DeMarcus Larrence 833 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,160 Speaker 1: was able to in previous years. We run the ball, 834 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 1: get a lead, and then the other team has to 835 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 1: come out and throw the ball to try to play 836 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 1: catch up and they become one dimensional. Then you got 837 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 1: more opportunities to get sacked. So sometimes the floor of 838 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: the game also helps that as well. If you remember 839 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 1: when we were able to run the ball with ze 840 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 1: and we were controlling the clock, I think we were 841 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 1: like number one in the league in time in possession. 842 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 1: That's when our defense got most turnovers and more sacks 843 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: because the other team didn't have much time to try 844 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 1: to catch up and they had to throw the ball 845 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:36,080 Speaker 1: three times three times each first, second, third down. They 846 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: had to throw the ball. So we had more opportunities 847 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:39,759 Speaker 1: to get that and you saw those hot numbers coming 848 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: in sacks and interceptions. So I think the way we 849 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 1: play the game and what we expect to see on offense, 850 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 1: I think that will play right into DeMarcus Larrence's hands 851 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 1: of being able to recab it cover on those quarterbacks. 852 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,520 Speaker 1: Like you what you just said right there brings to 853 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 1: light something someone had taught me a while back and 854 00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: saying that there are times when your offense has to 855 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 1: help your defense. And if the offense is chewing up 856 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: the clock and getting a lead, it helps your defense 857 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,840 Speaker 1: because now teams become one dimensional and you know what 858 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: they could do, which helps you. I go back to 859 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,759 Speaker 1: the eighty five Bears, and that's before your time, Danny, 860 00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 1: but the eighty five Bears defense was so good. The 861 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 1: teams were all they were so behind. All they could 862 00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 1: do was throw, and they had so many great pass 863 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 1: rushers and they knew how to bullet so well that 864 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 1: it was just it became I mean, it just became 865 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 1: a game of tea off for the Bears. And if 866 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 1: the Cowboys are averaging thirty points a game with this offense, yeah, 867 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,840 Speaker 1: you're gonna make life a lot easier for that Cowboys defense. 868 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 1: And the strength of the team and the money that's 869 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 1: being spent on this team is all the offense. So 870 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:48,120 Speaker 1: to me, that's another responsibility that Kellen Moore's a coordinator. 871 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy of the head coach, They've got to make 872 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 1: sure they take care of the defense by really coming 873 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 1: up with an offense that scores a lot of points, 874 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 1: puts a lot of pressure on folks. We saw what 875 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:58,960 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs were able to do. Their defense 876 00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: is not great, and I'm not trying to be flipping 877 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 1: about it at all. They have some good players, but 878 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:06,840 Speaker 1: it's not a great defense. But they didn't have to 879 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 1: be great because their offense put so much pressure on 880 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 1: other teams and it helped their defense along the way, 881 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,919 Speaker 1: and it ended up helping them win a Super Bowl there. Right, 882 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 1: Just remember it's tough to commit to rushing the passing 883 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 1: on first and second doll, especially when the head of 884 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 1: the chains, so your your offense has to help you 885 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:26,400 Speaker 1: get in those situations. And like I said, well especially 886 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 1: I think the year that I was in Chicago, they 887 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,759 Speaker 1: came up to Chicago. I was while still watching the 888 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys play, and those guys are running the ball, scoring points, 889 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,720 Speaker 1: and I think Barry Barry was still on that defense. 890 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 1: We had Brandy Carr, Sean Lee, we had some guys 891 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,760 Speaker 1: on there, and those guys were able to make plays 892 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,919 Speaker 1: in the passing game. It was so obvious of why, 893 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 1: because Zeke was running the ball like crazy. We had 894 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 1: time position and they got guys behind. And when you 895 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 1: play that way, like I said, you get a lot 896 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: more opportunities on defense, and Mary Nelly, I loved them, 897 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,720 Speaker 1: and I love the way he coached. He would always say, 898 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: you earned right to rush on third down, and it's 899 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,279 Speaker 1: and it's true. So even on defense, you still have 900 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 1: to get those stops on first and second because if 901 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:09,319 Speaker 1: you're not, you're still not resting the pastor it's hard 902 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,000 Speaker 1: to rest of passion on thirty two and third and one. 903 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: So it's both sides of the ball. Office can help 904 00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,799 Speaker 1: the defense, but defense also has to help itself, and 905 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,040 Speaker 1: I think I think with the new schemes on both sides, 906 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 1: I think we'll be able to get that gun done 907 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: just from what we see on paper and what these 908 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 1: coaches have been able to do in the past. He 909 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 1: is Danny McCray on New he S, Drugs, Buried Church, 910 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 1: taking the week off.

This is a big day for our clubs. 963 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:33,800 Speaker 1: I think it's a big day for the NFL. I 964 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 1: think it's a big day for sports. It's a big 965 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: day for building confidence.

The NFL, in my opinion, is going 973 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 1: to be played this year. We're going to see football. 974 00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 1: And whether we have fans or not, I don't know, 975 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:14,799 Speaker 1: but I'm just telling you right now, we are going 976 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 1: to have football. They're taking all the steps to make 977 00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:20,359 Speaker 1: sure that they go ahead and play the season. This 978 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,040 Speaker 1: is the players Lounge on New we scrugs. A long 979 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 1: time Cowboys reporter Danny mc craig joins me. He's a 980 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 1: former Cowboys player. Barried Church is off this week. He's 981 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: out playing in the woods. Danny, You see the NFL 982 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 1: is starting to make every move towards playing a season, 983 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,759 Speaker 1: and then we look at college football. College football, man, 984 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 1: they're already trying to figure out how they can get 985 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:43,879 Speaker 1: student athletes back on campus. Here in Ohio State talked 986 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: about how they could play some games with just twenty 987 00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 1: five to fifty thousand fans in the shoot, which they 988 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 1: can obviously see a lot more than that. But I'm 989 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 1: telling you, man, people are figuring out a way how 990 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 1: do they get their football. Yeah. I see all these 991 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 1: plans coming out, and you know, I'm skeptical with this. 992 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:05,680 Speaker 1: With this COVID nineteen thing, it's so early. Once you 993 00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,279 Speaker 1: get back to having God's practice together and then they 994 00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 1: have to go home and come back and live the normalize, 995 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,239 Speaker 1: and you start to see how that affects people on 996 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:15,600 Speaker 1: the team. See if people get sick, see if they don't. 997 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:18,280 Speaker 1: I think I think that'll be a big determining factor. 998 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 1: Of if you can play these games or you can 999 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:24,359 Speaker 1: whole train account. Same thing with let these people into 1000 00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 1: the to the to the stadium fifty thousand people. Now 1001 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 1: it looks good on paper, like you know I did, 1002 00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:37,240 Speaker 1: I did a NBA. Yeah, I took an NBA class 1003 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:39,799 Speaker 1: and I know a little bit about operations and all 1004 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 1: that stuff looks good on paper until you get actual 1005 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,279 Speaker 1: people in there where you can't really determine, like what 1006 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:48,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna do because people sometimes do random things. What 1007 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 1: about ten gates? What about all this other stuff. I 1008 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:51,880 Speaker 1: think it's a lot more things that they have to 1009 00:51:51,880 --> 00:52:01,879 Speaker 1: figure out, but it's positive that they're talking about yep, 1010 00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:10,719 Speaker 1: all right, Look there's so much money tied up into 1011 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,959 Speaker 1: college football, pro football. They're going to figure out how 1012 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,319 Speaker 1: to get out here and get that money. I look 1013 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:24,400 Speaker 1: at NASCAR. We just seen NASCAR run two races without fans. 1014 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: This means they're fulfilling their parts of the TV contract. 1015 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 1: Now we're going to see losses in revenue if you 1016 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:37,640 Speaker 1: cannot have a full stadium. But if they can figure 1017 00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:40,080 Speaker 1: out how to operate at twenty five percent or fifty 1018 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:43,880 Speaker 1: percent capacity the way they're doing restaurants, and I'll simply 1019 00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:46,600 Speaker 1: go by what I have seen happen as they started 1020 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 1: to reopen in the state of Texas, restaurants of twenty 1021 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:55,239 Speaker 1: five percent Jim's twenty five. Why isn't the NFL going 1022 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:57,560 Speaker 1: to do the same thing. If they can't, they're going 1023 00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 1: to figure out a way to get people into the stadium, 1024 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,800 Speaker 1: sell concessions that they're going to want to get the money. 1025 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,000 Speaker 1: All right, there's just so much money out there, and 1026 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:06,839 Speaker 1: there's so much money that can be lost that these 1027 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,480 Speaker 1: teams and these colleges are gonna figure out ways that 1028 00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 1: they can go ahead and recoup those dollars. Now, what 1029 00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:16,800 Speaker 1: I did find hypocritical when it comes to these colleges 1030 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 1: is you're doing everything you can to figure out how 1031 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 1: can you get these players back? But what about the students? 1032 00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 1: Now that I found absolutely funny. I saw here in 1033 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:27,560 Speaker 1: Louisville is trying to figure out how to get get 1034 00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:31,560 Speaker 1: kids back on campus in May, talking about getting kids 1035 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 1: back on campus in May for football and the fall sports, like, well, 1036 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:40,279 Speaker 1: what about the students? And that that I laugh at it, 1037 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:44,120 Speaker 1: And I also say this, I expect many colleges to 1038 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 1: have students on campus this fall. I was telling one 1039 00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 1: friend of mine. I said, you may means you get 1040 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:52,239 Speaker 1: your own dorm rule, but they're gonna figure you don't 1041 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:54,560 Speaker 1: have to you know, have to do those double occupancy 1042 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,279 Speaker 1: but but they're gonna figure out how to get you 1043 00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:00,480 Speaker 1: on campus. Danny, I'll give you a good sample because 1044 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 1: I served on the board of trustees and by alma 1045 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:05,400 Speaker 1: mater USC Pembroke, which is one of the sixteen schools 1046 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:07,840 Speaker 1: in the state of North Carolina, which includes NC State 1047 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:11,520 Speaker 1: and North Carolinas playing the acc The state says that 1048 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 1: you cannot take any state dollars and put it towards athletics. 1049 00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:17,680 Speaker 1: For instance, if the state gives you three million dollars 1050 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:19,799 Speaker 1: a year, you can't go spend any of it on 1051 00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:22,160 Speaker 1: a field or at a stadium or anything like that 1052 00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 1: at allers sports. But what you can use is what 1053 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:28,759 Speaker 1: they call the student activity fee. And they need the 1054 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,239 Speaker 1: student activity fee, and you don't get that fee if 1055 00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: you don't have students there on campus. So you will 1056 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:38,800 Speaker 1: see students on campus because they need the activity fee. 1057 00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:42,280 Speaker 1: So you will see people going to school in North Carolina. 1058 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,879 Speaker 1: And they're sixteen institutes, especially the ones that play play 1059 00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:49,399 Speaker 1: big time sports. The East Carolinas they're gonna get their money. Man, 1060 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: They're gonna get their money. And if they're doing it 1061 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,640 Speaker 1: at colleges, well, you know, the NFL is gonna look 1062 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,239 Speaker 1: at it the same way and say, how can we 1063 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 1: fill up at and t If it's at twenty five 1064 00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:00,560 Speaker 1: percent to fifty percent, they're gonna take some before they 1065 00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:04,920 Speaker 1: take nothing at all. Go ahead, day, Yeah, most definitely. 1066 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 1: I think the uh just going back to my days 1067 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 1: at LSU. I remember we had an apartment complex West 1068 00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:16,640 Speaker 1: Campus apartments and we had four guys to a room 1069 00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 1: in there. So just just trying to think about how 1070 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:21,480 Speaker 1: they'll make that work and how they'll be able to 1071 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 1: spread out the student athletes over that time because in 1072 00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:28,840 Speaker 1: that apartment complex we had all athletes, so that was volleyball, basketball, baseball. 1073 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see that. And you are 1074 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,920 Speaker 1: absolutely correct, they need that money. So if them getting 1075 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:39,879 Speaker 1: money it's tied to having students on campus, they're they're 1076 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 1: going to get it done. I'm still gonna be interested 1077 00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:46,160 Speaker 1: to see how they're able to make this this thing 1078 00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:48,800 Speaker 1: come to life that they have with fifty thousand people 1079 00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:51,960 Speaker 1: being in the stands and having them separated and doing 1080 00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:54,719 Speaker 1: concession stands and having them going to the bathroom and 1081 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:57,840 Speaker 1: telgating all the other stuff. It'll be interesting to see. 1082 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 1: Don't have very much confidence in that, but you know, 1083 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 1: I'm not the one coming up with it, and I'm 1084 00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:05,080 Speaker 1: not an expert, so I'll just sit back and watch 1085 00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 1: and then we could talk about it on the player's lause. Yeah, 1086 00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:10,600 Speaker 1: when money is involved, they seemingly find out ways to 1087 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:13,160 Speaker 1: get this stuff done. Let's touch on CD Lamb before 1088 00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:14,880 Speaker 1: we get out of here. Cde Lamb initially said he 1089 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 1: wanted to wear the number ten. Jerry said he wanted 1090 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:18,799 Speaker 1: to wear the eighty eight, and he ended up taking 1091 00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,239 Speaker 1: the eighty eight. He went on one oh five three 1092 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 1: the Fan, the Cowboys flagship station and spoke about not 1093 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:27,440 Speaker 1: understanding and knowing the history of the eighty eight and 1094 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:31,640 Speaker 1: now he's wearing it and Cowboy fans you know it. 1095 00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 1: But so many times we don't realize that guys in 1096 00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 1: college don't necessarily pay attention to these things that we do, 1097 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:41,919 Speaker 1: or pay attention to our favorite teams the way we 1098 00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:43,799 Speaker 1: do and cherish it. So they just kind of had 1099 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 1: to educate a young man about what the eighty eight 1100 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,040 Speaker 1: meant and that they feel he has the type of 1101 00:56:48,040 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 1: talent to follow in that tradition. All right, Danny, I 1102 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:13,040 Speaker 1: can't hear you on that, my bad here, but I'll 1103 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:17,120 Speaker 1: just follow this thing up here. Okay. And I thought 1104 00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 1: we had a video. I thought we was about to 1105 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,520 Speaker 1: listen to Ceedee Lamb. I'm about the fan. No no, 1106 00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:26,560 Speaker 1: oh yeah, So this is my thing with that. So 1107 00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:29,160 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb is a young man, all right. So the 1108 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:32,040 Speaker 1: eighty eight that he knows is Das Brian. So unless 1109 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 1: he went back and studied this stuff, he has no 1110 00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:38,760 Speaker 1: idea what it is. These players are younger now and 1111 00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 1: they're starting to see the new error of guys coming in. 1112 00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:44,400 Speaker 1: So his his recollection and his knowledge of eighty eight 1113 00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:47,520 Speaker 1: is only Daz Brian. So if you don't explain it 1114 00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:49,600 Speaker 1: to him over something he wasn't interested in when he 1115 00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:51,440 Speaker 1: was in college, he won't know anything about it. So 1116 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 1: it just took took some people here at the organization 1117 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 1: to let him know how important it was, specifically Jerry Jones, 1118 00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:59,200 Speaker 1: because like you said, Jerry Jones get what he wants. 1119 00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 1: So CD Lamb was gonna wear number eighty eight. So 1120 00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:05,320 Speaker 1: it's just it's just a matter of educating guys on 1121 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 1: on what these things mean in the history of certain 1122 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:12,240 Speaker 1: organizations and numbers that these players wear. Because you know 1123 00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 1: he's nineteen, he doesn't. He didn't watch Michael Irvan play. 1124 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:18,000 Speaker 1: He didn't understand that or any of the other ads 1125 00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 1: that played. Here. You're right, you're right, um, Da Money 1126 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 1: says on here. You guys said the Cowboys were not 1127 00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:26,920 Speaker 1: going to take a wide receiver in round number one. 1128 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:29,160 Speaker 1: You're right, you know, the Cowboys didn't think they were 1129 00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 1: taking a wide receiver a round number one because nobody 1130 00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 1: thought that CD Lamb would fall to seventeen. Nobody said that. 1131 00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:38,880 Speaker 1: The Cowboys even said it. When we did our mock 1132 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,120 Speaker 1: draft simulations. We never had got the CD Lamb, so 1133 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,960 Speaker 1: the Cowboys didn't expect him there. So Da Money guess 1134 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 1: what we were wrong, and the Cowboys didn't expected Okay, 1135 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:53,000 Speaker 1: hellod we weren't totally totally wrong, all right. Who we 1136 00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:55,320 Speaker 1: said they would take they ended up getting in the 1137 00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 1: second round, all right, So we we just assumed that 1138 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:01,200 Speaker 1: they said that they were gonna take Digs in the 1139 00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:03,880 Speaker 1: first but he was still available and they knew that 1140 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 1: they would be able to get him in a second, 1141 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 1: so they made the business decision and they got CD Lamb. 1142 00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 1: I mean, who wouldn't do that? So now Danny, let me, 1143 00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 1: let me go ahead and throw myself under the bus. 1144 00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 1: And what I said, I said, there are not sixteen 1145 00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:23,160 Speaker 1: gms in this league who will pass on CD. And 1146 00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:27,520 Speaker 1: yes I was wrong. Where have we seen a guy 1147 00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:30,120 Speaker 1: who was rated number one in his position? Because you 1148 00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 1: go look at most of the boards had had CD 1149 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 1: Lamb right number one. What have we not seen a 1150 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 1: receiver like that in a receiving passing league? Go land 1151 00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 1: at seventeen. We haven't seen without any issues, okay, without 1152 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 1: any personal issues or baggage at all. We don't see it. 1153 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:45,320 Speaker 1: You got to kind of go back to Randy Moss. 1154 00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 1: The last time you saw a number one receiver in 1155 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:52,760 Speaker 1: the draft class fall Soul fall. So this whole process saying, 1156 00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:54,080 Speaker 1: hey man, you said they wan't gona take no, No, 1157 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,280 Speaker 1: I didn't and the Cowboys didn't think it was gonna happen, 1158 00:59:56,400 --> 00:59:59,240 Speaker 1: but it happened. Okay, it happened. And if you want 1159 00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:01,200 Speaker 1: to try and translate that and attached it to Jamal 1160 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:04,000 Speaker 1: Adams and oh, you guys said they wouldn't take take 1161 01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:06,280 Speaker 1: a wide receiver so they could go get Jamal Adams 1162 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:08,920 Speaker 1: and I'm telling you right now, the Jamal Adams and 1163 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 1: this whole trade thing you talk about, you must include 1164 01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:14,600 Speaker 1: the money with it, because this guy, wherever he goes, 1165 01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 1: wants to get paid along with it, as he should, 1166 01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:19,960 Speaker 1: but he wants to pay that And getting CD Lamb 1167 01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,200 Speaker 1: ain't costing you fifteen million dollars a year. Trying to 1168 01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 1: make a trade for Jamal Adams wild cost you fifteen 1169 01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 1: million dollars a year. So anyway, I appreciate you. I 1170 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 1: appreciate you coming at us a little bit. But but 1171 01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:31,400 Speaker 1: at the same time, man, that's just kind of let's 1172 01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 1: put some of this in perspective. The cowboys that think 1173 01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:36,440 Speaker 1: they would get C. D Lamb, nobody we got exactly. 1174 01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:42,920 Speaker 1: We got exactly who we wanted. Yes, yes, you're right now, 1175 01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:45,720 Speaker 1: I should say this. Plenty of fans wanted CD Lambs. 1176 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:47,280 Speaker 1: I will take that. There are plenty of fans who 1177 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 1: wanted them. My boy, Brian Custer, who does a lot 1178 01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:54,200 Speaker 1: of boxing for showtime, he wanted CD Lamb. So so 1179 01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:57,320 Speaker 1: those who love offense wanted CD Lamb. The folks who 1180 01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:00,040 Speaker 1: enjoy defense on this show, we all thought that it 1181 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,880 Speaker 1: should have gone with the defensive back. Church said, Treyvon 1182 01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:04,920 Speaker 1: Digs should have been the guy, and they ended up, 1183 01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:08,800 Speaker 1: in my opinion, really lucking out and getting the number 1184 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:11,520 Speaker 1: one receiver and the number the corner that they wanted 1185 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:13,640 Speaker 1: in the draft. You couldn't ask for what the Cowboys got. 1186 01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 1: Lucky on that and sometimes that's what you need. And 1187 01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:20,600 Speaker 1: I will say this, man, you had a conversation before 1188 01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 1: one of the shows, and my number one pick was 1189 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:27,800 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson to play in the slot. But we didn't 1190 01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 1: quite we didn't quite make it there. I was hoping 1191 01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 1: they would go receiver, but they needed a dB and 1192 01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:34,640 Speaker 1: they went CD Lamb. I still think Justin Jefferson fit 1193 01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:36,480 Speaker 1: playing in the slide of just a better fit. But 1194 01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:39,080 Speaker 1: we got what we wanted. We got it. We got 1195 01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:41,520 Speaker 1: a top nightch receiver and the top Nights dB in 1196 01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 1: the first two hours. And go back to what Stephen 1197 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:47,280 Speaker 1: Jones said, they had CD Land ranked number six on 1198 01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:50,600 Speaker 1: their overall draft board. If your player number six lands 1199 01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:53,080 Speaker 1: at seventeen, you take the play. It happened to be 1200 01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:55,360 Speaker 1: a wide receiver. If it was going to be a 1201 01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:57,360 Speaker 1: defensive end and they had the player number six, that 1202 01:01:57,440 --> 01:01:59,680 Speaker 1: I think they have done it too. So I just 1203 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 1: I don't have an issue for them taking wide receiver. 1204 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:06,560 Speaker 1: I just didn't think NFL gms would pass on a 1205 01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 1: guy that good. Sixteen times. I actually thought the Falcons 1206 01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:12,320 Speaker 1: may even do it. I know the Falcons that Julio 1207 01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:14,920 Speaker 1: Jones and Calvin Ridley, but even I thought, just with 1208 01:02:15,160 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 1: a player that ranked that high at that point in time, 1209 01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:19,560 Speaker 1: you take the player. But the guy went other places. 1210 01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:21,840 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what one person inside the Star 1211 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 1: told me that when Henry Ruggs was drafted by the Raiders, 1212 01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,120 Speaker 1: he said that really threw them off because they didn't 1213 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:32,720 Speaker 1: think that the Raiders would take Rugs. And so Ruggs 1214 01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:35,560 Speaker 1: goes to the Raiders. Then you see Jerry Judy end 1215 01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 1: up going to the Denver Broncos. And then remember San 1216 01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 1: Francisco was another place that people had mocked a wide receiver. 1217 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 1: You I thought San Francisco would take a wide receiver, 1218 01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 1: but they decided to go take the big boy from 1219 01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:49,080 Speaker 1: South Carolina, kid Lunch on kid Law. And so that 1220 01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:53,400 Speaker 1: started the slidest. People started looking to fill needs versus 1221 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:55,600 Speaker 1: trying to take Judy. And then the Jets were placed 1222 01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:58,640 Speaker 1: that had Ceedee Lamb and Jerry Judy, and they decided 1223 01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:00,720 Speaker 1: to go off to stackle. So the Cowboys lecked up 1224 01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:02,680 Speaker 1: as people decided to feel needs and good for them. 1225 01:03:02,800 --> 01:03:04,800 Speaker 1: They ended up on the bright side of things here 1226 01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:07,600 Speaker 1: because they made his strength their offense and even bigger 1227 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,240 Speaker 1: strength for them. So I had no issues. And they 1228 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:12,400 Speaker 1: got two quarters in this draft for Craig. That was 1229 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:14,400 Speaker 1: my big thing. They got two corners. They needed two 1230 01:03:14,480 --> 01:03:16,240 Speaker 1: quarters and they got two quarters. And the Cowboys came 1231 01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:18,960 Speaker 1: out good on this man. We had some unexpected curveballs happened, 1232 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:20,680 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys saw the courage and they hit him 1233 01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:24,640 Speaker 1: out of the park. Yeah they did good. I love 1234 01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 1: the draft. Yeah, yeah, there's nothing you can't can't say 1235 01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:31,440 Speaker 1: that you don't And boy, you know what, as we're 1236 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:33,600 Speaker 1: saying this, I get an alert on my phone for 1237 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:37,760 Speaker 1: ESPN and say the Dak versus the Cowboys contract. They 1238 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:39,600 Speaker 1: got nothing else to do because we got no lives 1239 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:42,080 Speaker 1: towards so they want to continue that conversation there. But 1240 01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:43,880 Speaker 1: we already briefed you on it, and if you didn't, 1241 01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:46,600 Speaker 1: check out the replay of the Players Lounge and you 1242 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:50,560 Speaker 1: can catch up with that there.
