Patrick, no Sewalker, You've had your 38 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 5: finger on the. 39 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 3: Pulse of Cowboys tampering period. 40 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 5: Who if they decided to pamper going into this twenty 41 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 5: sixth season. 42 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 8: Well let's start with literally who they decided to pamper. 43 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 8: They agreed to termined one year deal with Sam Williams. 44 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 8: So Sam Williams is remaining in the building on a 45 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 8: yeah you just called it. 46 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a Baryeah. I don't know where you were 47 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,399 Speaker 3: headed with that, but now I go, we got there, 48 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,239 Speaker 3: we got we got there. 49 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 8: Sam Williams back on a one year deal for three 50 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 8: million dollars key special teams got for the Cowboys. But 51 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:40,959 Speaker 8: we're not going to pretend that he doesn't need to 52 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 8: show something on the defensive side of the ball. 53 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 9: But this new system fits him though, it does I 54 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 9: mean the type of well, yeah, the type of player 55 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 9: that yes, I'll say that right, yeah, if there was 56 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 9: a choice between a four to three and a three four, 57 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 9: this is the system that he will want to be in. 58 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 9: So I know we've been hard in regards to, you know, analytically, you. 59 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 3: Know, going after you know, Sam Williams. 60 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 9: But that's because he, in my opinion, did not fit 61 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 9: a four to three type defensive end. He is a 62 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 9: three to four outside linebacker. This system should bode well 63 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:14,239 Speaker 9: for him. 64 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 10: He was asked he was thrown into the Mike Zimmer defense. 65 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 10: He was thrown into my gosh, ever flews his defense. 66 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 10: So yeah, maybe it might not have suited him as well. 67 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 10: But I think there's a lot of concerns there as 68 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 10: far as just personal fouls. I think that's one of 69 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 10: the things that you have to consider. I mean, he 70 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 10: has nine point five sacks in his career, but nine 71 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 10: personal fouls. 72 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 3: And that's the big thing. 73 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 10: And that's the big thing. He's got to be able 74 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 10: to mature. I mean, granted, they're giving him another shot. 75 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 10: It's a you know, three I'm sorry, one year deal, 76 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 10: three million dollars. That's interesting, But I'd say there are 77 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 10: better moves that were made yesterday. 78 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 8: There were that price tags a bit high for a 79 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 8: special teams player that needs to show himself on defense 80 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 8: and show that you can either impact it positively on 81 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 8: defense or at least that minimum not impacted negatively on defense. 82 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 8: But that's the Sam Williams equation. Hopefully he shows up 83 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 8: this year in a big way. We obviously hope that 84 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 8: these guys do. But we're also going to tell you 85 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 8: what the real is, bigger news to what Josh is saying. 86 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 8: First of all, Cowboys started off legal time Pree not 87 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 8: with a free agency signing. 88 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 3: But with a trade. 89 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 8: Cowboys traded for Packers former Packers and rusher Rashawn Gary. 90 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 8: The Cowboys were able to get him for a fourth 91 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 8: round pick from the twenty twenty seven NFL Draft. Lock 92 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 8: so the Cowboys are at the moment absorbing that contract 93 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 8: with a base salary of eighteen million dollars this year. 94 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 8: But the expectation is that will be reworked. So I 95 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 8: need you to open your eyes slope. There you go, 96 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 8: There you go. It is not the expectation that he 97 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 8: will play this season under the Packers contract that the 98 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 8: Cowboys are inheriting. So there's a handshake agreement there, but 99 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 8: it is only twenty four hours after that trade was 100 00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 8: agreed to. But it can't be finalized until Wednesday anyway, 101 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 8: so you're not going to see a reworked contract until 102 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 8: the trade could be finalized. 103 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 3: So keep that in mind, ladies and gentlemen. 104 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 8: Legal tampering is yesterday or today tomorrow when the league 105 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 8: year opens at four pm Eastern time, everything becomes final 106 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 8: and then you can start reworking contracts like that. So 107 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 8: Rashan Gary in the building splash play for the Cowboys 108 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 8: to get him for Christian Parker in this new system, 109 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 8: and then they went and made another splash play. 110 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 3: They jumped all the way to safety. We talked about. 111 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 8: Isaiah and Joshua of the ILK that safety is slightly 112 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 8: more important the linebacker Kyl and I on the other 113 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 8: side of that. 114 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 3: But they went to Jalen Thompson. 115 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 8: So they signed Jalen Thompson, former Arizona card and they 116 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 8: spent several seasons with guess who, Ryan Smith, the secondary 117 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 8: coach now here in Dallas, so obviously you knew who 118 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 8: stood on that table. Ryan for Jalen Thompson. Loved Jalen 119 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 8: Thompson's versatility. He's played free safety in his past with 120 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 8: the Cardinals, but he is now a strong safety with 121 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 8: the versatility to be able to cover. Someone posted some 122 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 8: clips yesterday of his range. Insane. His range is absolutely insane. 123 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 8: They got him on a three year, thirty six million 124 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 8: dollar max deal, so he's here. They also Restructuredik Hooker, 125 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 8: which saves them two million dollars against the cap. But 126 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 8: in restructuring Malik Hooker, anyone who was asking if Malie 127 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 8: Hooker will be in the building this year, that means 128 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 8: he will be in the building. They're not restructuring the 129 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 8: player that they're going to release or trade or any 130 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 8: of those things. So as it stands, your starting safety 131 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 8: unit is Malik Hooker at free and Jalen Thompson coming 132 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 8: in at strong. What does that mean for Donovan Wilson. 133 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 8: Likely means that Donovan Wilson is going to be playing 134 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 8: elsewhere going forward because they did not give Jalen Thompson 135 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 8: a thirty six million dollar contract for him to play 136 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 8: in rotation or back up to anybody. 137 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 3: So there you go, writing on the wall there, right 138 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 3: is on the wall there. 139 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 8: They also restructured the deal on Terrence Steele, So anyone 140 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 8: knowing on this PA, because we knew they want to 141 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 8: keep Terrence Steele. They saved nine million dollars toward the 142 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 8: salary cap by restructuring Terrence Steele. So he's going to 143 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 8: be Yeah, he's going to be your starting right tackle 144 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 8: going forward. 145 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 3: And it's a cheaper deal, and it is much cheaper 146 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:13,679 Speaker 3: deal for Dallas. 147 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 5: It makes him the sixteenth highest paid offensive tackle in football, 148 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 5: which if you're looking at his production and the pay 149 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 5: that he's going. 150 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 3: To have, it's about right. It's commensurate. Are those that's 151 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 3: about right? 152 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 10: Are those details finalizers that have to wait till Wednesday 153 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 10: as well? 154 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 3: No, can be fine, restructures can be done now. 155 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 8: Yeah, okay, yeah, because that's under contract, that's freedom captain got. 156 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 7: But it's not a pay cut NECESSI No, it is. 157 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 3: Not a page. It's just reorganized from a reorganizing. 158 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 8: It's giving it's liquid any more funds for him upfront, 159 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 8: but allowing the Cowboys to get cap reliefs. Same is 160 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 8: what we talked about last week with Dak Prescott, Ceedee 161 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 8: lamb uh Tyler Smith. So, and they still have something 162 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 8: that they could restructure. Oh so Diggy Zoo is a 163 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 8: big one that's steering you right in the face if 164 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 8: you need to make that move and pull that trigger 165 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 8: and restructure and get cap savings without his permission. Since 166 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 8: we last spoke, the Cowboys have issued a second round tender. 167 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 3: There's a lot of news and notes before flying through it. 168 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 8: Second round tender on both branded Aubrey and TJ Bass 169 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 8: at five point six million dollars per point of clarity 170 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 8: for those that may not know. With the second round tender, 171 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 8: Cowboys have the right to first refusal. If a team 172 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 8: makes an offer to one of those two guys Aubrey 173 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 8: or Brett or Bass, the Cowboys can look at that 174 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 8: offer choose to match it. If they choose to match it, 175 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 8: they have the right to retain the player if they 176 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 8: choose to not match it, and the player leaves whatever 177 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 8: team they go to, Cowboys get a second round pick 178 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 8: as compensation for that loss. So again that's Aubrey and Bass, 179 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 8: no second round tender or any tender on one Ya 180 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 8: Thomas or brock Kaufman. I'm kind of surprising on brock Kaufman, 181 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 8: but I from a logistics standpoint, While I don't like it, 182 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 8: I understand it because then you're paying five point six 183 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 8: million dollars for what they determined to be the seventh 184 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 8: offensive lineman. I think TJ. Bass is the seventh offensive lineman. 185 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 8: So that's where they and I disagree. But for the 186 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 8: sake of explaining why they didn't tender both, that's why 187 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 8: they didn't tender both. 188 00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:00,319 Speaker 5: I think there's a little bit more league wide interesting TJ. 189 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 3: Bass. I couldn't agree with that. 190 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,719 Speaker 5: Then for brock hoton what we're hearing, and you can 191 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 5: still resign brock Hoffmann, you still work a deal and 192 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 5: bring him back. 193 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 3: He's a little upset on the moment though. 194 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 5: Yeah he's a little upset, But we'll talk about that 195 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 5: later when it comes to when it comes to TJ. 196 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 5: Bass though, That's why I think it came down to 197 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 5: those two guys, and they had to put a second 198 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 5: round tender on one, not both, and they said, let's 199 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 5: go with TJ. Bass because we feel like there's a 200 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 5: better opportunity to bring Hoffmann back in the building than 201 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 5: it might be for TJ. Bass to return, and you're 202 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 5: gonna do it to Aubrey to protect your rights there 203 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 5: and make sure that you have one of the best 204 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 5: kickers in the league under contract. 205 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 8: Now, to wrap up news and notes as well I 206 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 8: can considering what all we got going, Cowboys also were 207 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 8: awarded two compensatory picks for the twenty twenty six NFL Draft, 208 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 8: both in the fifth round, one seventy seventh overall and 209 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 8: one eightieth overall. Those picks can be traded, okay, so 210 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 8: the Cowboys can use those as sweeteners for whatever package 211 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 8: they might have that maybe gets them back into the 212 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 8: second or third round or whatever trade they might want 213 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 8: to do on trade day or prior to. So that's 214 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 8: the news and notes Cowboys. I'm not even gonna say 215 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 8: they missed out on Max Cross because I agree not 216 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 8: giving the two first rounds Rosby, but they definitely went 217 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 8: all the way to the finish line with that. And 218 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,719 Speaker 8: then Baltimore was like, yeah, we're just we're willing to 219 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 8: do it, and I agree with the Cowboys not being 220 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 8: willing to do it, which led to Rashawn Gary. Questions 221 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 8: are being asked to me, Well, no, see with the 222 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 8: Rashawn Gary acquisition, are they out on Trey Hendrickson as 223 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 8: we have this conversation, They are not out on trade Hendrickson. 224 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 8: They are out on thirty million dollars for trade Hendrickson. 225 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 8: But if that price can come down kind of commensurate 226 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 8: to some concerns about if he's ready to go, if 227 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 8: he will be ready to go medically after that. 228 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 7: Injury, I think, which apparently he is. 229 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think a deal can be struck. They're still 230 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 8: working the Tredy Hendrickson angle. So you if all things 231 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 8: work out how the Cowboys would love them to, you 232 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 8: might end up with both Gary and Hendrickson. And then 233 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 8: you still they whipped on the linebacker. 234 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 3: Oh man, Yeah, that was a time, all right. 235 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 5: So before we get too far into this, before we 236 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 5: get to get too far into this, I want to 237 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 5: talk about the Rashan Gary trade. I want to talk 238 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 5: about that. When it comes to Rashan Gary, you you 239 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 5: trade a fourth. 240 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 3: Round pick, and I put this out there yesterday. 241 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 5: Dallas has been very recently willing to trade fourth round 242 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 5: picks for. 243 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 3: Players they're pretty loose with him. 244 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 5: Arguably, Yeah, three times in the last four years, Trey Lance, 245 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 5: Jonathan Mingo. Now you've got Rashan Gary. This is out 246 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 5: of those three the best chance for the for the 247 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 5: player to end up being an impact player for your team. 248 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 3: I see a lot of pushback. 249 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 5: Though, on Twitter and on the social media side of 250 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 5: things from Cowboys fans about Rashaan Gary. Remember, this is 251 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 5: not the the blue chip edge rusher that I think 252 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 5: everybody won it. But is he a good football player? Absolutely? 253 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 5: Is he better than what you had on this roster 254 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 5: last year. Absolutely? I think he is your best pass 255 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 5: rusher outside of maybe Donovan Azaraku and we'll talk about 256 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 5: Jadavian Clowney at some point down the line. Either one 257 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,439 Speaker 5: of those guys I think is better. I mean, you 258 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 5: got a really solid starting caliber edge rusher slash defensive 259 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 5: lineman because he's probably gonna play a lot of that 260 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 5: four I spot in Christian Parker's defense. So I don't 261 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 5: want to knock on that. The knock I think is 262 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 5: where people are assuming Dallas is done. 263 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 3: Now they oh, they've missed out on all these guys. 264 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 5: They missed out on these players, they missed out on 265 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 5: free agency in general. That's where the frustration lies. Josh, 266 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 5: and I feel like it might be fair in some elements. Linebacker, 267 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 5: I think it's. 268 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 3: Fair they've missed out on linebacker. 269 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 5: Yes, but with the edge rusher possibilities that are still 270 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 5: on the table and some of these other secondary players, 271 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 5: I don't think they're done yet. And I still get 272 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 5: the feeling that they're going to work something out in 273 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 5: a couple of those areas. It may have to be 274 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 5: trades now as opposed to free agency. But I just 275 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 5: don't think Rashan Garry is your number one move. But 276 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 5: right now people. 277 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 3: Are thinking that's going to be the number one No. 278 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 10: Of course, it was the first thing that you did. 279 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 10: It was one of the first stories to come out 280 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 10: of Day one of free agency or legal tampering. So 281 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 10: I understand that respect. I understand people being frustrated. I 282 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 10: was frustrated at the end of the day because of 283 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 10: the linebacker situation. I think that the trade for Rashon Gary. Granted, 284 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 10: if you ask any Packers fan, they're like, oh, we 285 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 10: fleeced the Cowboys. 286 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 7: Okay, paying Micah Parsons. 287 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 10: Oh no, no, But the best ability availability is ability 288 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 10: is availability. At least for Rashon Gary, who started sixteen 289 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 10: of seventeen games, played six hundred and sixteen snaps without 290 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 10: missing a tackle, the second most in a season since 291 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 10: twenty eighteen. 292 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 7: He had seven point. 293 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 10: Five sacks, which, paired with a Jadevian clowning from last year, 294 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 10: would have been a savior. That would have been amazing 295 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 10: to have a guy like that on your team last year. 296 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 3: Huge. 297 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 10: Granted, do you think that he obviously benefited from a 298 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 10: Micah Parsons playing alongside Michah Parsons throughout. 299 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 7: The year last year. 300 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 10: I think it's not just a rotational guy. I think 301 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 10: he's a starting caliber outside linebacker, defensive end, whatever you 302 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 10: want to call it in the scheme, but they're using 303 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 10: primarily on the left side, and I think more than anything, 304 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:07,839 Speaker 10: they're looking at his run defense abilities and paired with 305 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 10: Jalen Thompson, who is also very versatile and is able 306 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 10: to play at the line of scrimmage and is great 307 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,719 Speaker 10: against the run, I think it's just a it's more 308 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 10: of a philosophy that they're trying to improve that side 309 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 10: of the ball and be sure tacklers. Both of these 310 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 10: guys are that. I don't think this is saying that 311 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 10: we're done with free agency. It can't be that way, 312 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 10: because they were trying really hard to get a linebacker yesterday. 313 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 7: It just didn't swing our way. 314 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 10: Not that I'm making excuses for it, because I think 315 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 10: if you want a guy desperately enough, you do what 316 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 10: you can to go get him. That's why Trey Hendrickson 317 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 10: is still on the board. I'm like, Okay, guys, go 318 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 10: get him. I almost don't care what it takes. I 319 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 10: don't want to go thirty million, and he's not coming 320 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 10: off of that number right now. But seriously, I think 321 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 10: if you want a total facelift of your defense, that's 322 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 10: what you need to do. 323 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 8: I think when I agree with what you're saying, and I 324 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 8: feel like when it comes to the Rashawn Gary move, 325 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 8: I think what the Rashaan Gary move does for you 326 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 8: is a few things. First of all, this is a 327 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 8: guy who has what twenty four sacks. If you're only 328 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 8: using if you're one of those people who only use 329 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 8: sex as a measurement for success as an edge wresser, 330 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 8: you also shouldn't do that. But Okay, let me just 331 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 8: give you a crumb today. He had twenty four sacks 332 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 8: through the past three seasons. He averaged seven and a 333 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 8: half over the past two seasons. He's the definition of 334 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 8: consistency in that category as well as durability. He played 335 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 8: in seventeen full regular season games of twenty twenty four, 336 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 8: fifteen starts out of sixteen games that he was active 337 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 8: in twenty twenty five, so you're getting that as well. 338 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 8: I do agree with Kyle. Do I look at Rashan 339 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 8: Gary as the well? 340 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 11: No? 341 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 8: I don't look at him as the well. I look 342 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 8: at him as a very good football player who is 343 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 8: good at rushing the pastor at pastor and at stopping 344 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 8: the run, who if combined with another move Trey Hendrickson ideally, 345 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 8: But if you don't get Trey Hendrickson, then you know 346 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 8: there's a guy in Miami I would like to tandem 347 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 8: with in addition to Donovan nezro Rocku. I just feel like, 348 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 8: and I agree with both your points. Rashaun Gary isn't 349 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 8: the end all be all to resolve the issue at 350 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 8: the edge, but he can be with a plus one. 351 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 3: The question is who's the plus one? 352 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 8: My bigger concern with the Cowboys is and again not 353 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 8: for lack of effort, because we're here in the building. 354 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 3: We know for a fact they went hard at linebacker yesterday. 355 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 3: They went making calls. Yeah, it's crazy, just didn't just 356 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 3: didn't go. 357 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 5: What happened to your dog? 358 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 12: Man? 359 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 3: We need to talk. What happened to Kobe? What are 360 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 3: you doing? All right? What are you doing? He chose 361 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 3: a two win team? What do you what are you doing? Yeah, 362 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 3: let's talk about it. You get your dog here? Rough? Rough? 363 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 3: What are we doing? What we do? Listen? I did 364 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 3: all the I did all the you know. 365 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 7: Put the feelers out there. 366 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 3: Listen. 367 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 5: Maybe tweets were what sent him away. 368 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 3: This guy, the star guy. We possibly you got no 369 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 3: urges with everybody got no sea. 370 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 9: That's right, former former Bulldog. Yeah you have his former coach. 371 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 7: You can't say it today. 372 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,120 Speaker 9: Who's calling the plays on that side of the ball? 373 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 9: And neither of those was good enough to get him here? 374 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 9: What the heck? I'm going to tell you what happened, 375 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 9: No doubt, all jokes aside. I was like, n Kobe, 376 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 9: what are you doing? So, you know, kind of called around, 377 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 9: texted around, you know, because George is a family baby, 378 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 9: Thus dogs find out what the family just like so 379 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 9: word is because of how the Raiders set the table 380 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 9: with keeping Eric Stokes and getting kay Walker his teammates, yeah, 381 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 9: former teammates from Georgia Championship. You know Natty Winners so 382 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 9: so with his friends instead of when you want. 383 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 7: J Allen whatever you need to come on. 384 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,640 Speaker 8: Maybe, but all jokes aside. Man, I wish to Kobe 385 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 8: nothing but the best, and he did not. You know, 386 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 8: he left the rival. He didn't go to another rival, 387 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 8: So okay, cool, but you know it did it did 388 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 8: sting because it was right there. The money was was 389 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 8: comparable chid rebas here, Robert muss Champs here, George Pickens 390 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 8: is still in the building. 391 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 3: Nikobe, what are you doing? 392 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 9: You know, I honestly wasn't sad about what do you think? 393 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 9: I mean, you're just just playing around. But I was 394 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 9: sad about missing out on Lloyd, was sad about missing 395 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 9: out on Little. 396 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 3: I mean, those buffalos. 397 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 8: Got how'd you feel about Quincy Quincy Williams Quinn's brother. 398 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 9: Oh that didn't bother me, didn't bother No, that didn't 399 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:31,719 Speaker 9: bother me. I like Azeloni. 400 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, he flew off to man what's that run 401 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 8: on linebacker started? 402 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 9: It was those those those three really in particular, it 403 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 9: was really Lloyd Little and then as a loon. 404 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 5: And I think the league looks at it that way too, 405 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 5: which is why they flew off the board as quickly 406 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 5: as they did. 407 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 3: I mean there was really no. 408 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 5: Room for error on one side or the other, not 409 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 5: just one team, not just the Cowboys. I mean teams 410 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 5: were hunting linebacker and you could see that. What did 411 00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 5: you think about the Gary side? 412 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 9: I thought it was a good trade. As you guys mentioned, 413 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 9: you know, nothing that's jumping off the board. But what 414 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 9: I think the angle that the Cowboys are taking, I 415 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 9: think they're they're stuck between old times and the new 416 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 9: wave right now. I think that they're they're still trying 417 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 9: to be on the Stephen Jones. Let's let's save a 418 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 9: couple of dollars in our pocket, you know, not necessarily 419 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 9: bargain shopping. 420 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 3: But it's like a it's like a poll. 421 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 9: It's like, hey, I know I need to do more 422 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 9: than what I've done, but I still don't want to 423 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 9: empty the bag so much. I think that they're going 424 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 9: to have more depth than they've ever had. I'm just 425 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 9: not sure that they're going to have the star players 426 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 9: that everybody is hoping to see, especially now that free 427 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 9: agent has passed. I foresee them making one more depth 428 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 9: move at the I would say probably two more moves. 429 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 9: I think they're going to add a linebacker. I think 430 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:53,719 Speaker 9: they're going to add another outside linebacker slash d n uh. 431 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 9: But I don't think that's going to be a big 432 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 9: splash player. I think it's gonna be a consistent player, 433 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 9: somebody who makes contributions. And I think that they're really 434 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 9: kind of have to. They're going to be forced to 435 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 9: turn their attention to consistency versus one splash, And I 436 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 9: think that they're really torn between, Well, we had a 437 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 9: Micah in the building who was the big splash, and 438 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 9: we've seen what that did for our overall defense. Okay, 439 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 9: a heck of a player, but they made a hard 440 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 9: line decision to go away from that, right, to go 441 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 9: away from dumping the money into one player, so that 442 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 9: they can have the money to have depth right in 443 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 9: rotation and have consistency. So I think that they're really 444 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 9: torn between should we go back to that, we find 445 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 9: ourselves going back towards the Mica stuff. 446 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 3: No, we can't do that. We already had that guy 447 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 3: in the building. 448 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 9: So let's go ahead and let's add to depth and 449 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 9: add consistency. So we could have three or four guys 450 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 9: that are able to come in and play. And no, 451 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 9: they might not all individually be splashed players and can 452 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 9: be absolutely dominant, but collectively as a defense, we could 453 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 9: be one heck of a unit if we have consistency 454 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 9: across the board. So I think they really keep getting 455 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 9: in that tug of war, right like you know, you 456 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 9: mentioned that they try to go out to somebody's line backers. 457 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 9: You know, I don't think they're going to overpay at 458 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 9: the defensive and slash outside linebacker position Gary. As you 459 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 9: guys mentioned, they're going to rework that contract. So I 460 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 9: think that they're really going to add two or three 461 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 9: more pieces for depth and consistency and then go hard 462 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 9: with their first round picks on a defensive side. So 463 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 9: I think that you're still going to see a completely 464 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 9: different defense. It's just not going to be ooh, you 465 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 9: better watch that player. He can kill us. 466 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 10: But I would argue that the depth pieces that you 467 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 10: would want to add to your defense currently have been 468 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 10: eliminated a bit because in day one. You know, it 469 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 10: wasn't necessarily the big splash players. I mean we're talking 470 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:38,719 Speaker 10: about Lloyd and Little who didn't necessarily command like giant contracts, 471 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 10: I think, like very doable contracts for what the Cowboys 472 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 10: are trying to do to still be able to pay 473 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 10: George Pickens and you know, a lot of your franchise 474 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 10: players in the future. But to have those guys go 475 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 10: off day one and not make the hard enough push 476 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 10: to make it happen to me is disappointing. I think 477 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 10: that as far as linebacker goes, yesterday was a really 478 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 10: really tough set. 479 00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I do think. 480 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 8: I mean, if we had to offer up a grade, 481 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 8: I think yesterday was was a c uh. 482 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 3: They got off to the races. Yeah, they got off. 483 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,440 Speaker 5: To the give it like a B B minus B 484 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 5: B minus. I mean you got starting, safety starting, and 485 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 5: Thompson is an A. Like those are two guys that 486 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 5: are better than Thompson is an A where Shaun Gary 487 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 5: is a B plus. But I can't give Gary an 488 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,159 Speaker 5: A because I literally just said here and said you 489 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 5: need a plus one to complete. 490 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 3: That package, which I agree. 491 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 8: So if you need a plus one, if this is Thompson, 492 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 8: I don't think you need the plus one to complete 493 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 8: the Jaalen Thompson move. 494 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 3: So it's an A. 495 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 8: But if you need any type of sweetener for the move, 496 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 8: then it can't be an A. So that will be 497 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 8: let's say a B plus. So if I give an 498 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 8: AID to Jalen Thompson, Jayalen Thompson signing. 499 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 3: You can B plus?

But I will losso admit 510 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 8: Josh has has a great point some of the depth, 511 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 8: especially at linebacker. There was such a run on linebackers 512 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 8: that and I think everyone who follows me on Twitter 513 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 8: saw when I said Sonny or cj also Rodriguez, I'm 514 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 8: into that as well.

Caleb Chase eight years old, absolutely still 626 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 9: one of the top linebackers in the league. Bobby Wagner 627 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 9: a coach on the field, a coach on the field, consistent, 628 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 9: great person, great locker room guy, leader, just all those 629 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 9: things he can still he still got some tread on 630 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 9: on the tires. 631 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,479 Speaker 3: So I think you can get him for a very 632 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 3: affordable at the number. 633 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 10: I think that, and especially if you're drafting linebackers, what 634 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 10: better pairing would it be to have a Bobby Wagner 635 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 10: coaching these guys up. Like we said, literally a coach 636 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 10: on the field to help these guys improve. I mean, 637 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 10: like even for a guy like Shamar James, how crucial 638 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 10: would that be. 639 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, b him. 640 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 9: If you're gonna have a rotational veteran, that's that's one. 641 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 9: Caleb on Chase on out of I agree with England. 642 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 9: I like him a lot as well. 643 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 5: That would be such a full circle most it would 644 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 5: be so fully from twenty c Lamb Chase. That was 645 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 5: the decision at seventeen. They go with c Ed Lamb 646 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 5: best player available, not over the need of edge rusher 647 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 5: which they needed, and then for him to just come 648 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 5: on back after ceede Lamb's been an all pro. They 649 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 5: get it right and then Caylevons gets a circle all 650 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 5: the love see. 651 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 3: That would be wild. 652 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 7: Would you like that move? 653 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 3: You know what? I would? 654 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 5: I think it'd be fun because it would go into 655 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,239 Speaker 5: what you talked about a couple of weeks ago when 656 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 5: we're talking about this three four scheme and switching from 657 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 5: a four to three to a three four, even though 658 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 5: they're going to run multiple I know there's that conversation two. 659 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 5: You need versatile ed rushers, you need big bodied ed rushers, 660 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 5: and that's what Calebon Jason can bring. So I think 661 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 5: it would add to that room of edge rushers you 662 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 5: need to compile. You've added it with Rashan, Gary Calebon 663 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 5: Jason would be another depth piece. Is he your starter? 664 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 6: No? 665 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 5: Is he a rotational player? Absolutely, He's probably gonna play 666 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 5: a lot of snaps for you. 667 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 7: Of those listed, where does Kaden Ellis? 668 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 5: I love Kayden Ellis phenomenal player and I mean you 669 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 5: talk about him as one of the and I know 670 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 5: NFL dot Com wrote about this. I completely agree, the 671 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 5: most underrated players of his generation. And he's thirty one 672 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 5: years old. He's established himself as a pass rushing linebacker. 673 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 5: You can play him off ball, you can play them 674 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 5: on ball, you can play him kind of in a 675 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 5: number of different areas. Played a ton of snaps. I 676 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 5: think it was what a thousand snaps over the last 677 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 5: three seasons or so. Give me Kateen Ellis at the 678 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 5: second level. I would love something like that two year, 679 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 5: three year deal. Let's make a happen. 680 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 7: Is he top of your list as far as linebackers go. 681 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 5: As far as linebackers, probably, yeah, he'd probably be number 682 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 5: one remaining out of the free agent list. I know 683 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 5: there's the rumors of what they would do and possible 684 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 5: trade scenarios. I would like those. That would be fun, 685 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 5: but we can't talk about the specific players. Kate Ellis 686 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 5: we can talk about says he's a free agent. Yeeah, 687 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 5: he'd probably be my number one remaining out of city. 688 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 5: He'd probably be right there. Yeah, I would give I 689 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 5: would give the. 690 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 3: Edge to Ellis though, I think he fits the system. 691 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 10: Similarly, on NFL dot com, they were talking about his 692 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 10: availability and you playing more than five hundred snaps in 693 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 10: a year? 694 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 7: Is he k doing something like that Shanalo? 695 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 6: Yeah? 696 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 3: Yeah for me. 697 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 8: And this is some of these guys that we're talking 698 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 8: about that are still available made it to my open 699 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 8: market series on Dallas Cowboys dot com. 700 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 3: So I'm still mad at I'm still mad at. 701 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 5: Uh. 702 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 3: Chayson is one of those guys. 703 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 8: So when we talked about adding the sweetener to the 704 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 8: Gary deal, Chason would be that a sweetener. An example 705 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 8: of that sweetener. You gotta address linebacker today. So, whether 706 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 8: it be Ellis, whether it be Chanel, you gotta address linebacker. 707 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 8: I'm gonna go to cornerback because they didn't address that 708 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 8: yesterday either. 709 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 3: I want to Wreak Wooling. 710 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 7: I like those words. 711 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 5: I've always been Ak Woolling fan since he was a 712 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 5: ut so found the freak baby bring him back to 713 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 5: the lone star state. 714 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 3: Let's do it's gonna cost you don't care shut up. 715 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 5: Because he went to set he was. 716 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 3: A back up. 717 00:31:50,120 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 2: Bunny. 718 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 3: Why he had fans wants the bag man, I don't. 719 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 3: I don't think that you no, he's gonna get. I 720 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 3: don't think you can get Wrek and and and the 721 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 3: past rushing that you want. I don't think I don't 722 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 3: even get both. I just don't. 723 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 5: I just don't like your Seattle and super Bowl champion 724 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 5: mine negating our dreams of getting a tall, linking, speedy corner. 725 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 8: I don't meanly disagree that you can't do both things. 726 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 3: Really you can do both things. 727 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 8: An example being at the top of the show, I said, 728 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 8: you know they restructured five guys to this point, right, 729 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 8: No burgers. They there's one at least one sitting right 730 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 8: in front of you that you haven't put a trigger 731 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 8: on yet. Why haven't you put the trigger on restructuring 732 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 8: oh yet? Because you don't need to yet. But in 733 00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 8: the event you need to, you're going to pull that. 734 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 8: So let's say they get Trey Hendrickson, and let's say 735 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 8: they can talk him down to I don't know. Let's 736 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 8: say twenty eight whatever, just for the sake of math, 737 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 8: I wouldn't do thirty But let's say they get. 738 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 3: Would you be happy with? 739 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 9: Honestly, would you guys be happy paying Trey Henderson twenty eight? 740 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 3: Yes, as he was he's on your team. I'm fine, Yeah, because. 741 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 7: You find a way to make it work. 742 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 8: Aby say two things are true, which is to what 743 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 8: I'm saying. You can finesse the salary cap. However you 744 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 8: need to finess it. Teams do it all the time. 745 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 8: In addition to it, it ain't my. 746 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 5: Money's that's where it ain't my money. That's where my 747 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 5: mind says. So I sat up here last week and 748 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 5: told Cowboys fans and was very adamant about it. And 749 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 5: I still believe this. By the way that I think 750 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 5: this year is different from a spending standpoint. I think 751 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 5: it is different from what I've heard from the front 752 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 5: office and from what we've heard all the way around. 753 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 5: And I still think they are willing to do something big. 754 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 5: But at that point it might be thirty million for 755 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 5: Trey Hendrickson. 756 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 3: He's not going below. 757 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 5: Do what you gotta do to make this team better 758 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 5: and do exactly what Jerry said on the bus to 759 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 5: us in Indianapolis. Wager the future, and that's the nice 760 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 5: way of putting it. Listen, but wager the future and 761 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 5: get a badass football player on your team and spend 762 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 5: the money to do so. I still think they are 763 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 5: tinkering on doing that, but they're just hesitant at the moment. 764 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 5: But in this day and age of NFL free agency 765 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 5: and the legal tampering period, hesitation gets you nothing. You 766 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 5: cannot wait for this, make a move, forget about the future. 767 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 5: Let's do this thing over the next two or three 768 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 5: years and see what happened. 769 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 8: Because here's what you don't want them to do, right, 770 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 8: And this is not a shot a shot at either 771 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 8: of these two guys, especially Javion Clwnty, because we on 772 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 8: this show we love us some Jadaeveon Clowney. But if 773 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 8: you can get Trey Hendrickson in lieu of breaking that 774 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 8: money apart and saying, Okay, I'm going to bring back 775 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,320 Speaker 8: Fowler and Clowney and a third person. And then here's 776 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,399 Speaker 8: Jerry now spinning it and selling it how he has 777 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 8: in the past and saying, well, instead of us pay Micah, 778 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 8: we were able to get five different people. Could he 779 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 8: could I don't want that to happen here. I say, 780 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 8: you go and get trade I already said I don't 781 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 8: want to pay trade thirty. 782 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 3: I don't. 783 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 8: But if they pay trade thirty, am I personally going 784 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,760 Speaker 8: to be upset? No, because he's on the roster, which 785 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 8: was my goal and it ain't my money. And I 786 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 8: know that you can pull more triggers to free up 787 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 8: more cash to also get to wreak Willing and bring 788 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 8: Wreek to Dallast. 789 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 3: So yes, you can do all of those. 790 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 9: Let me ask you this question, ask if you can 791 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 9: wait until tomorrow and grab somebody for Miami for twenty. 792 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 3: Who's somebody I don't think.

But if that move is 844 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:34,760 Speaker 8: executed tomorrow when the new league year opens. 845 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:36,760 Speaker 3: To answer your question, yes. 846 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,800 Speaker 8: I am much more comfortable and I'm completely fine within 847 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 8: lieu of Trede Hendrick saying you bring me this guy. 848 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 3: As want something else. 849 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 8: If you add Tarique Wooland or that's what I'm saying, 850 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 8: or a shannalo or if you add that's what I'm saying. 851 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, but not by that by themselves. 852 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 9: Yeah, what I'm saying that we said this is the 853 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 9: beginning of the show. I believe that Dallas is halfway 854 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 9: and halfway out of trying to go back to paying 855 00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 9: so much money for one player. Yes, I really think 856 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 9: that they're torn between what they've done. 857 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 3: And what they're unwilling to do. 858 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 9: So I truly believe that they're waiting on this potential 859 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,839 Speaker 9: move to happen, and if they can't get that done, 860 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 9: then they'll go do it. 861 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 7: I don't know. 862 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,800 Speaker 8: Okay, So as we have this conversation, I could see 863 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 8: their thought process starting to maybe shift toward that, but 864 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 8: it wasn't that effective last Friday or Saturday when they 865 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 8: were ready to go hard, when they did go hard 866 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,839 Speaker 8: at Max Crosby, and then when that didn't pan out 867 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 8: because I agree in not giving up two first rounds, 868 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 8: they said, Okay, well, let's pivot to still talking to 869 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 8: Troy Hendrickson, but let's go ahead and make this for 870 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 8: Shawn Gary move in the event we also don't get 871 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 8: Hendrickson knowing that Gary needs a sweetener. So if the 872 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 8: sweetener is the guy from Miami, if that move is 873 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 8: executed tomorrow and you address linebacker and or corner with 874 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 8: not just a budget ben guy, but an actual starter.

Even though 947 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 5: the news is out that he will be released, we 948 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 5: can't talk about it.

Pat so question? 952 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 8: We're sitting here, we're talking about this particular individual, which 953 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:33,239 Speaker 8: I think we all know who we're talking about now. 954 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:38,240 Speaker 8: In a scenario where not unlike Rashaun Gary, when teams 955 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 8: know that this player is going to be released, there 956 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 8: are obviously teams who are so willing to bust a budget. 957 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 8: They're like, we're not going to trade him because we're 958 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 8: willing to throw whatever bag at him. 959 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 3: That's typically not the Cowboys. 960 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 8: So as the Cowboys front office, would you not be 961 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:57,680 Speaker 8: more comfortable in the waning moments before he's officially released 962 00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 8: swooping in and offering up a pic. Yes, yep, what 963 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 8: would that pick look like for you? 964 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 5: The fifth, the fifth next year, one of those three 965 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:06,919 Speaker 5: fifth this year on next year, this year, you got 966 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:07,359 Speaker 5: three this. 967 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 3: Year, you might as well use it. 968 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, you got a comp it's. 969 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 3: Got two right next to each other. You might as well. 970 00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 7: You got two two cops. 971 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:14,359 Speaker 3: Yeah. 972 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 7: Now I will say this because you don't have any 973 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 7: days Hupex. 974 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 8: But this is a great point that Isaiah mixed though. Okay, 975 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,320 Speaker 8: he made this between during the break. That's a thirty 976 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,359 Speaker 8: plus million dollar hit for twenty twenty six, that this 977 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 8: particular gentleman has on that that roster. It has to 978 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:30,919 Speaker 8: be a rework, right, it has to be. So Yeah, 979 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 8: I agree, I'd give up a fifth. 980 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 5: And maybe they'd take some of the contract, and so 981 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 5: the fifth's probably expect they got to eat the pro 982 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 5: ration anyway. Yeah, so there's a little bit of that. 983 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 5: Are you worried about his injury history? He's got some. 984 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,640 Speaker 8: I can't know, because I can't in good conscience sit 985 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 8: here and say that I'm in on Trey Hendrickson or 986 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 8: that I was in on Max Crosby, but then look 987 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 8: at this particular guy and say, oh, well, I'm not 988 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 8: in on him from like, no, it's it's apples, apples apples, right, 989 00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 8: It's literally apples to apples to apples when you're compare 990 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,880 Speaker 8: those three. So yeah, I'm completely not worried about it 991 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 8: from that capacity any more than I would be with 992 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 8: her Hendrick Centomex Crosby. So yeah, I mean, I was 993 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 8: just curious if you guys were of the same mindset 994 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 8: with me. Was like, don't let him hit free agency 995 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 8: because knowing how the Cowboys typically spend and even if 996 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 8: they're they would, but they're not going to get into 997 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 8: that batting war for that guy, So go in and 998 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 8: take them. 999 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,880 Speaker 5: One other one other linebacker name we threw out Chanal, 1000 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 5: we threw out Elis one other linebacker name that I 1001 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 5: think and Nick Harris, friend of the show for him, 1002 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 5: were talking Cowboys remember through this out there yesterday. But 1003 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 5: Patrick Queen, uh from Pittsburgh, he might be. 1004 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 3: Another doesn't move great for me? Yeah, he's well, he's 1005 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 3: always been kind of slow. 1006 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 10: Those I think the report are saying that they might 1007 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 10: be out on that. 1008 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, were suing it as as hard he was. 1009 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 8: But then Hastick in Baltimore completely out of sorts. In Pittsburgh. 1010 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 8: You could say, different team, different system, and that's viable. 1011 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 3: I would rather have the other two guys, but yeah, yeah, 1012 00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:58,000 Speaker 3: you would. 1013 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 9: I'm trying to the identity of what the direction of 1014 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 9: this defense, and I'm thinking about guys that not only 1015 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 9: can produce on the field, but also give you the 1016 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,280 Speaker 9: versatility to be able to be multiple. 1017 00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 3: Defensively, which we know coach Parker wants to do. 1018 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 9: And then also what type of attitude that these guys have, 1019 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 9: what type of what type of aggression do they have 1020 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,919 Speaker 9: on the field. That is going to determine the type 1021 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 9: of personnel that you're going to bring into this locker 1022 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:24,719 Speaker 9: room as well. I think that's something that's lost when 1023 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 9: people are putting together rosters around this time of the year. 1024 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:28,239 Speaker 3: People just look at. 1025 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 9: What they do on the What type of production do 1026 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,399 Speaker 9: they have, what are their stats look like, what type 1027 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:34,840 Speaker 9: of player are they? What type of energy do they 1028 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:36,920 Speaker 9: bring right? Are they a high energy guy? Are they 1029 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 9: a raw ro guy? Are they go hit you in 1030 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 9: the face type? 1031 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:39,840 Speaker 11: Do like? 1032 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:41,800 Speaker 9: What do they bring in that regard. So that's what 1033 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 9: I think about some of these personnel. That's why I 1034 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 9: bring these names. 1035 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:45,400 Speaker 7: Are they willing to do whatever it is? 1036 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 5: It's like, oh, I'm just about it exactly one of 1037 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:49,840 Speaker 5: the I mean, out of the two guys they signed 1038 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 5: yesterday or made the moves for yesterday. Mixed reports on 1039 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,400 Speaker 5: Rashan Garry, But for Jalen Thompson. I texted some of 1040 00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,840 Speaker 5: our friends over with the Arizona Cardinals said I love 1041 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,839 Speaker 5: with seven to ohs seven O's in love. I love 1042 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 5: Jalen Thompson, nicest, most respectful and humble person. And then 1043 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 5: he said he's so great, played this entire year on 1044 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:15,240 Speaker 5: a contract with no guaranteed money. He's smart, he's tough, 1045 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 5: and he deserves every bit of that money that is 1046 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 5: that is coming super high football like you. And that's 1047 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 5: even without him stepping within the building. 1048 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:26,239 Speaker 10: Firstatle a sure tackler, I mean, he finishes plays and 1049 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 10: his solo tackle numbers are proof of that. 1050 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 7: Over his entire. 1051 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 5: Career, he split almost evenly three different areas in the 1052 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 5: In his alignment as safety, he had free, strong and nickel. 1053 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 5: He played a lot of nickel two hundred and thirty 1054 00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,879 Speaker 5: plus naps and nickel back, and so you're gonna use 1055 00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:46,959 Speaker 5: him a lot in a couple different areas for that 1056 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 5: that backside. 1057 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 9: If I'm building his defense, I know we gotta get 1058 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 9: out here. I'm looking at my interior d lineman being dogs, right, 1059 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,799 Speaker 9: my three down those guys, all three of them have 1060 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 9: to be dogs. I'm looking for my outside linebackers now, Okay, 1061 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 9: I need those guys to be straight. Just I need 1062 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 9: both sides to be goons, just menaces, just even if 1063 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 9: they're not dominant players. I need them to be you know, 1064 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 9: you know, cohonas to the wall type people every single 1065 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:13,280 Speaker 9: play just pests. 1066 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:13,839 Speaker 3: Right. 1067 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:17,839 Speaker 9: I need my interior linebackers to be intellectual guys, sure 1068 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 9: tacklers that are smart as all get out, and I 1069 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,319 Speaker 9: need my secondary to be versatile. That's that's how I 1070 00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 9: would build this team. Right, So that's exactly how I 1071 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 9: would look at this. Now, if you can't go get 1072 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:31,920 Speaker 9: and we seem to have possibly missed out on some 1073 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:36,319 Speaker 9: of those just game changing type players, But now, I 1074 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 9: think you can still formulate your team in this way. Right, 1075 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 9: you have your three down guys already, I think you 1076 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:42,720 Speaker 9: can still add to that there are some veteran guys 1077 00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 9: that maybe towards the end of their career that can 1078 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:47,600 Speaker 9: add to that depth. 1079 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:48,840 Speaker 3: Right, there's some big boys out there. 1080 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 9: Klaias Kalaias Campbell's out there, You got Cameron Jordan out there. 1081 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 9: You got some guys that like all those guys are old. Yeah, 1082 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 9: but if they're going to be the second wave of 1083 00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:57,839 Speaker 9: your D line, that's a hell of a second line 1084 00:47:57,840 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 9: to bring in. And what do they bring to your 1085 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 9: locker room? What did they bring to ed Deep three? 1086 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:03,920 Speaker 9: That's what I'm talking about. When you start adding these 1087 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:07,239 Speaker 9: depth pieces. Have your starters, but then behind them have 1088 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 9: some consistent, smart, intellectual guys that can get their job done. 1089 00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 3: Maybe not to the way they. 1090 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:14,960 Speaker 9: Used to because they were big time star players, but 1091 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:16,600 Speaker 9: they can still make huge contributions. 1092 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:18,399 Speaker 5: Just because I teased it, I want to go through 1093 00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 5: the NFC East real quick and kind of talk about 1094 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:21,360 Speaker 5: what happened yesterday. 1095 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:22,719 Speaker 3: Of course we talked about the Cowboys. 1096 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:24,799 Speaker 5: They were the only team that did not lose a 1097 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,479 Speaker 5: free agent to another team in the NFC East. 1098 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:29,959 Speaker 3: And I believe in the NFL. 1099 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 5: I think that either waynybody good or bad, whatever that 1100 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:35,840 Speaker 5: ends up being the Eagles, however, a lot, Oh my goodness, 1101 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 5: they did not sign anybody. Them and the Packers are 1102 00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 5: the only two teams that did not sign any free 1103 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:43,319 Speaker 5: agency yesterday, or at least to greet the terms. They 1104 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,920 Speaker 5: did extend Jordan Davis that he did to tackle, but 1105 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 5: they lost Jalen Phillips, Nikobe Dean Reid Blankingship and Johan Doatson. 1106 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 5: So those are three or four really good players that 1107 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 5: they are not going to have. The Giants were very busy. 1108 00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,880 Speaker 5: They signed Isaiah Likely to tie end, and signed linebackers 1109 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 5: and Edmonds.
