  Speaker 1: The following.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: He's a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com and the
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Cowboys.
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: This is Cowboys Storyline with Nick Eatman.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: What's up everyone, Welcome to a Cowboys storyline. It is Wednesday,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: April the ninth. Just trucking right along here in April,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: getting closer and closer to the NFL Draft. I believe
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: it's two weeks away from tomorrow, so we can should
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: be kind of a dead period here. There's some moves
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys could make. Maybe still looking at this. Is
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: that getting to that time where you don't want to
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: do too much before the draft. You want to see
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: how it plays out. And that's pretty much where they
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: are right now. Not much has happened in the last
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: week or so. I I guess maybe maybe the trade
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: for Joe Milton that happened right after our show that day,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: so we haven't really talked about that. We can discuss
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: that with the quarterback situation. Looks like we do all
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: that in more. Eighty eight eight, five, five, two two
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: nine seven is the number to call. We've got a
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: couple of callers on the line, so let's get right
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: to it. Brian in Kansas City what's up?
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: Good morning, sir.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: How are you.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: I'm doing great, man, I'm doing great. How you doing.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: I like the shirt today.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: All right, appreciate it. Thank you absolutely.
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: Hey.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: You know, you know, listening to all the various content
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: and everything, you know, you kind of as at least
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: as a fan since we've had access to so many
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: media scouts and you know, you know, basically since the Internet,
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: so you can kind of developed favorites and everything, right,
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: And I just wondered if so, I have two questions
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: for you, and I'll give you mine. So my favorite,
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: a share is I think I would want to tackle Simmons.
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: I think if I could have anybody, you know, and
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: I'm assuming that some people are out of touch, Like
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: I'm assuming I can't get Graham or Hunter or or
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: what's the past rusher's named Carter, you know, I'm I'm
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: assuming a few of those people are out of reach,
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: you know, or we'd have to trade up, which I
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: definitely don't want to do. So for me, I think
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: it would be Simmons would be That's the guy I
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: would want and put him in there. And and my
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: second favorite would be Grant, you know, which you know,
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: we we we We laughed about that last week because
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: he's a Michigan defensive lineman, right, but but that's that's
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: kind of what my favorite is. I kind of wondered,
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: you know, I know you're not like a deep dive
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: draft guy, but but you know, you you listen to
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: all the shows and you talk to you know, way
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: more people than I'll ever talk to about it. You know,
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: I wondered if you ever do if you developed a
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: favorite this year, and then I just kind of wonder,
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: do you have But you've been there for so long,
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: do you have a favorite draft memory? Who just know,
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: just a draft memory period since nineteen ninety nine. There's
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: got to be something, right, And I'll hang up and listen, sir.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: It's good to talk to you this morning.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: All right, Thank you too, Brian. I mean, you know
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: that that's a whole show right there, draft moments and
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: stories and things like that.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I could just pin point one
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: or two who did a documentary called war Stories, you know,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: so like War Stories one and War Stories too, so
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: it was it was two. It was basically two full
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: hours of draft stories. So yeah, I have I have plenty.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know why. I can't even think of one
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: than just to tell right off the top. So I'll
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: just leave it at that for a second. I'll come
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: back to that in a little bit. Favorites for this year.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: You know, you're right, I don't. I don't study it
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: as much. No one's asking me to be on the
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: draft show. I'm not on there. I don't want to
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: be on there all that. It's hard, it's hard to
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: do that. These you know, we're asking our people to
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: study these players, and they're trying to study as many
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: as they can. And what's the study? You know what,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: how long does it take? Three games? Four games, thirty games?
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: You know, it's hard. It's hard to do that. And
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: so you know, that's that's why these scouts they've been
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: doing this for two or three years on each each player,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: each draft class, and things like that, so you know
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: they've got a good, you know, handle on this. And
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: even that it's what we've seen it. It's not an
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: exact science. I what I typically we'll look at is
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: traits and and also history. And for the most part,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys have done a really good job with offensive linemen.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: So if you're sitting at twelve, I just have a
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: hard time thinking you're not going to get a really
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: good player right there at twelve, tackle, guard, whoever's whoever's there,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: there's going to be some for you, and a guy
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: that can play eight to ten years for you. The
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: guy that drafted Micah Parsons back in twenty twenty one,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: what a great pick. They almost picked Slater from Northwestern
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: who went to the Chargers. I think that would have
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: been a great pick too, Not not Michaeh Parsons, but
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: still a pretty pretty good solid pick. And so that's
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: what I'm looking at, whoever that might be, whoever kind
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: of falls. That's why you want as many quarterbacks, as
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: many receivers, running backs jump in there, jump in the mix.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Corner Now, I'm fine with a corner if that's the
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: best spot, but I think corner an offensive line really
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: a tackle. Corner and tackle would be my guys, and
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: the best one. Now I'll say this too, you have
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: the twelfth pick. I don't know how many first round
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: grades they're gonna have. They usually don't reveal that until
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: maybe later. Jerial will say it, like after that day,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: maybe after the second round, after the first or second round,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: but usually it's fifteen, could be eighteen, twenty, could be thirteen,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: whatever that is. At the twelfth pick in the draft,
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys need to get a first round grade. So
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: if you get a trade back scenario to seventeen and
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: you only have a couple of first round grades available,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I would do that. Whatever you do,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: you've earned it with the seven to ten record. You've
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: earned a first round pick. You need to get a
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: first round player. And a lot of people don't realize
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: that not everybody has a first round grade they grade them,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: and so you know, last year the Cowboys were in
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: late in the second round, they didn't get a first
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: round player. Tyler Goyiten did not get a first round
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: grade from them. Not to buy understanding that he didn't
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: have a first round grade. Typically you're not going to
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: have it later in the first round. So that's my
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: my whole thing is, wherever they do, they need to
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: make sure they get a first round graded player on
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: their board. Don't trade too far back if you're not
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: going to get that, because that's that's what this team
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: definitely needs. Zach in Atlanta's next.
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: What up?
• 7:15
  Speaker 7: Nick and Frisco?
• 7:16
  Speaker 8: How are you man?
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: Good?
• 7:17
  Speaker 7: Man doing so well. Uh, shout out to you. Shout
• 7:23
  Speaker 7: out to Beams. Y'all are the best in the business.
• 7:26
  Speaker 9: Thanks.
• 7:27
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's been a few weeks since I called in,
• 7:29
  Speaker 7: and I've caught up on shows. Man, I missed. I
• 7:31
  Speaker 7: think your daughter's birthday happened, and there's other stuff. So
• 7:36
  Speaker 7: when when I caught up, I was like, Man, I'm
• 7:38
  Speaker 7: out here trying terrible comedy material and people are celebrating birthdays.
• 7:42
  Speaker 7: So anything I've missed, shout out to everybody. Uh. But
• 7:48
  Speaker 7: I wanted to say, I feel like the draft season
• 7:53
  Speaker 7: is so much fun because of all the you know,
• 7:55
  Speaker 7: limitless potential and mix and match and all that. But
• 7:58
  Speaker 7: I kind of feel like what you are just sharing,
• 8:00
  Speaker 7: and it's probably your sentiment about why you don't get
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: us into the draft, is like you get all the
• 8:07
  Speaker 7: ducks in a row, and you're like, is it just
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: happens like this? Get the ducks in a row, and
• 8:11
  Speaker 7: then they wind up picking the goose and you're like,
• 8:14
  Speaker 7: all right, well, I guess I got to learn about
• 8:16
  Speaker 7: this other player now, right, you know, But it's part
• 8:19
  Speaker 7: of the fun. You know. You get a nice grid
• 8:22
  Speaker 7: on the league and how teams change, and you know,
• 8:25
  Speaker 7: I do appreciate that. But as far as the Cowboys,
• 8:28
  Speaker 7: it's always nice to have the wish lists and what
• 8:30
  Speaker 7: would be ideal and then yeah, they snatch Mozzie Smith
• 8:34
  Speaker 7: at you know, twenty seven or whatever, and you're like,
• 8:37
  Speaker 7: all right, this is our guy. So anyways, Yeah, that's
• 8:43
  Speaker 7: just kind of where I'm at in the draft season process.
• 8:46
  Speaker 7: I listened to the Draft show, watch and broad US
• 8:50
  Speaker 7: have shows, and you know, I'm plugged in, but I
• 8:53
  Speaker 7: just have a little fatigue. So airing that on the
• 8:56
  Speaker 7: airwaves today, I cannot wait for the drafts wanted to
• 9:00
  Speaker 7: come so I can really study the players that'll be picked.
• 9:03
  Speaker 7: So that's all I got for you, man. I hope
• 9:06
  Speaker 7: y'all have a good day.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Thanks appreciate it, Zach. You know, here's here's my more
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: of a point to that, Like, like you're just talking
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: about and and I'm and I'm not trying to be
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: negative on the draft. I just it's just impossible to
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: get ahead of and even when it when it happens,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, think about it, We're about to be a
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: one year removed from last year's draft. So Tyler Goyiton
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Marshaw and Nielan Marius Lee Foul, Kaylin Carson, I know
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: I'm missing like a fourth round pick or or whatever.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: That's probably that's probably my point. Also is I'm just
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: throwing down some some guys that were drafted. We don't
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: know much about these guys. We still don't know Tyler
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Goyiton can play? Is he Is he going to be
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: a good player. I think Maryus Lee Fowl is going
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: to be a pretty good player. Marshawn Neeland, we'll see.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: You know, he got he got banged up a little bit. Uh,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: He's gonna get a lot of opportunities now. Caylen Carson,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: it looked good early then then he got hurt and
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: then you know it didn't get a chance to do
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: much after that. So that's my point. That's that's last
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: year's draft. You could probably go back two or three
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: years as well, and still there's question marks. So you know,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: just because you draft the player, you know, we're gonna
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: draft from some guys in two weeks and and and
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: they'll get graded and all that kind of stuff and all,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: how did the Cowboys do? And again we don't know.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: So that that's why I've always like, we'll see, we'll
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: see what it is. I don't study these guys enough.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: I see the highlights. I don't always see the bad plays.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: I don't always see those things. But I also know
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: what what positions typically come in and do well early,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: and what this team needs. And I love to hear
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: from you guys, because you guys have probably studied way
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: more than me. So all right, let's go to Robbie
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: and Coco Beach, Florida.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: What's up, mister Nick, How are you doing good?
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: How are you doing?
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: Uh?
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: It was a great weekend. I took the kids fishing
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: out in the boat.
• 11:07
  Speaker 10: We have a twenty six foot boat catching.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, come on, man, fighting on the water.
• 11:13
  Speaker 11: We catch fish.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to insult you.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: No, no, I didn't mean like that guy. You can
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: call me defensive to get out. Okay, no, not at all, man,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: But I catch a lot. We catch a lot of
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: red fish year nice.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Okay, good, that's awesome.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a great day. And the kids out
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: of blast.
• 11:30
  Speaker 8: You know what it's like.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: The little ones said, that's the best part.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: And my son and I saw the uh Minecraft movie.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: He loved it. He said, his best movie I've ever seen.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: You need to take Jacob to it.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: He's already seen it. I didn't take him, but he's
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: seen it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he has seen it. Anyways,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: what's going on with with you?
• 11:49
  Speaker 11: The Cowboys?
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: Cowboys?
• 11:50
  Speaker 11: Cowboys? Cowboys?
• 11:51
  Speaker 8: Man?
• 11:52
  Speaker 10: You know, always gets so.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: Hopeful around this time of year. And I look back
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: to some of our older players or recent older players
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: from drafts. I got a couple of questions, do you
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: think Mazzi's got a chance to actually turn it around?
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, three coordinators? Is his third one?
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: What do they wanted to do? What is he good
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: at that he can do? And my second part, I
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: know you'll agree with this one is I hope we
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: take the best available, either a running back, B guard,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: ST tackle, D defensive back, E, tight end whatever. You know,
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: we got so many needs that we could take. I
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: just hope we take somebody good man. I hope that
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: he fits and he is a good person and works
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: out well.
• 12:36
  Speaker 9: With the team.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: But if you answer that question about like Mazzi and yeah,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: and you talked about Neilan and Tyler Gaydon, I wonder
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: if I mean maybe they make that second year jump.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: So listen, I just want to hear your opinion on
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: those guys.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Yes, and we've seen it before. Thanks for the call, Robert.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: We've seen these guys make that second year. And look
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: what dron Bland did his second year. Look what Trayvon
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Diggs did his second year. Look with Jake Ferguson, did
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: you know, so we we've we've seen it. I mean,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: if my Ris Leafal makes that that jump in his
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: second year, I mean that we're talking about a really,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: really good player, and then Marshawn Kneeland as well. I mean,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: no one needs to make more of a leap than
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Tyler Goydon. And you know, from what I keep hearing,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: he's he's he's where he needs to be. He's in
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: the weight room every day, is taking it seriously. And
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: that's that's the first step. I think. You know, he's
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: young young person, not just a young player, a young
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: person and still a young football player. Hasn't played this
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: position a lot offensive line. He didn't. He didn't play
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: a lot of offensive line. So he's learning how to
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: how to do it. And even at college, even playing
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: at Oklahoma, you face some some really good competition, but
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: you know, athletically, you know he could he could do it.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: He could overpower you, he's tall, big and all that.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: But in the NFL, if you the technique isn't good,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. So he has to keep keep doing that,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: keep getting better there, you know, and I have confidence
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: that that he can turn things around. Now, your question
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: was about Mazzie Smith, first round pick from two years ago,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: and yes, what does he do well? I mean, I
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: mean he's strong as an ox. That doesn't mean everything though,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: you don't just because you're winning the strong man competitions
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: of the world doesn't mean you go right to the NFL.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: And again, technique, quickness off the ball, awareness, studying, understanding
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: what what concepts are, understanding what you know, the blocking
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: schemes from the opposing team. So those are the things
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: that Mazzie still has to do to get better. Remember,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: and a Massie made that statement. We talked about it
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: a couple of times about I don't really like football
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: and all that I like to hit people and and
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: it was a that's a red flag, you know, And
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: so has things changed there, because liking football means studying
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: to do your your your absolute best and not just
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: you know, say I'm bigger, stronger than you, I can
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: push your around. Because that doesn't work in this level.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: And we've seen that. So offensive linemen are big, strong too,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: and they and and and the ones that study know
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: how to how to how to block these guys. And
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: so that's the step that he needs to take. I know,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: talking to Matt Eberflus a few weeks ago, he loved Osa.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: I mean he Osa was outside at the time and
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: he was like, I really really really really love Osa.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: I mean I would hope to get him back. Then
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: we asked him a little bit about Mozzi and he said, no,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: I think Mazzi is going to be just fine. Mazzi's
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: going to be fine. We're we you know, we'll be
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: working with him. He's got a lot of tools in
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: the toolbox. So you know, no, that's what every coordinator
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: is going to say on the record that you know,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: they every every coach is going to say the positive things.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: But you know, I like ibra Flus. He's a t
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: trade shooter and I believe him on that. So he's
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: he's confident in what Mazzi can do to turn things around.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: All right, we have another caller on the line, Chris,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: we got one. Yeah, we'll go to Armando in Mexico's city.
• 16:01
  Speaker 12: Hey, Nick, how are you good?
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: How are you doing good?
• 16:05
  Speaker 13: Good? So little harder again to get through because without
• 16:11
  Speaker 13: the time change, wouldn't do that in Mexico anymore.
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: So it's earlier for me one hour, so it's even harder.
• 16:17
  Speaker 13: Not much of a morning person.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: All right, well, good morning, good morning to you. Thanks
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: for waking up with us here on the storyline.
• 16:26
  Speaker 13: Yeah, no, thank you. That's the best way to wake up. So, Nick,
• 16:31
  Speaker 13: I know this draft season, so everyone has his own opinion.
• 16:35
  Speaker 13: He's gonna I'm not gonna go too much into that,
• 16:38
  Speaker 13: so I just say that I would like I hope
• 16:41
  Speaker 13: Gentiezer pick if it's there, So that's it, I hope.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: So, yeah, I don't think you will be but you
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: never know. You never know things where things happen. Not
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: everybody would need a running back. So if if somehow
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: the Raiders pass on him, then and you know, maybe
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: he does fall a little bit, but it doesn't sound
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: like he is going to be there.
• 17:06
  Speaker 13: Yeah, I think it's the Raiders and the Bears.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: The Bears.
• 17:09
  Speaker 13: Yeah, it's possible, Candy, But anyway, we'll see, I hope.
• 17:13
  Speaker 13: So So anyway, I have a questions for you. I
• 17:16
  Speaker 13: always wondered, how do contracts actually work in the sense
• 17:19
  Speaker 13: that I know, uh, players that get paid when eighteen
• 17:25
  Speaker 13: when each week on the regular season, but when free
• 17:29
  Speaker 13: agents and draft picks are hired, for example, n't they
• 17:35
  Speaker 13: don't get paid at all until the regular season, have
• 17:38
  Speaker 13: a training campaign and the precision and everything like that.
• 17:41
  Speaker 13: They don't get anything other than the signing boat.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: There's like a stipend that that that they get. Some
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: of the players get you know, like a like free agents,
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: like not really undrafted free agents, but you know they
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: call them street free agents. There is like a stipend
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: that they but it's really not not a lot. And
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: and now you don't you don't really get paid until
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: week one you make the team, uh we week one
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: of the of the season. Now you could also get
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: you know, practice squad. Those guys get get paid as well,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: but it's a it's a weekly deal. So that's a
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: lot of players sometimes for don't understand that, like early
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: on you might get a rookie spends all his money,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: doesn't understand that he doesn't get paid the next week.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: When the season's over, it's over. So that's that's one
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: of the things that you know, and there's a lot
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: of there's a lot of people that that that helped
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: these guys with finances and stuff. Uh here in in
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: the building, outside the building. But it's basically at eighteen,
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: your salary is divided by eighteen. Now, signing bonuses are
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: you know, you get some some bonuses throughout the year,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: you get some workout bonuses. Just depends on how your
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: contract is structured.
• 19:00
  Speaker 13: Oh okay, I always wondered about that.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, well all right, hearing from you. All right,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: have a good one. Let's keep going to Oklahoma City.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: We got Gavin in Oklahoma City.
• 19:17
  Speaker 8: Hey, my man, how's it going good?
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: How you doing?
• 19:20
  Speaker 8: I can't complain, man. I just wanted to touch on
• 19:24
  Speaker 8: the Joe Milton trade. I really really liked the trade.
• 19:28
  Speaker 8: I think as much flack as the front office gets
• 19:31
  Speaker 8: when something doesn't go the way the fans wanted to go,
• 19:35
  Speaker 8: I think we got to give him as much credit
• 19:37
  Speaker 8: when they make a nice move, because what they've done
• 19:39
  Speaker 8: here obviously has made it to where you don't have
• 19:42
  Speaker 8: to use a draft pick on a quarterback. Milton, I'm
• 19:46
  Speaker 8: guessing may have been on their board somewhere obviously in
• 19:49
  Speaker 8: the previous draft process for them to make that trade.
• 19:54
  Speaker 8: He's got a lot of upside in my opinion. He's
• 19:56
  Speaker 8: got a strong arm. He's very raw, Don't get me wrong,
• 19:58
  Speaker 8: He's very raw. But if if you put him under
• 20:00
  Speaker 8: a guy like Dak Prescott, maybe he could develop the
• 20:03
  Speaker 8: way you thought Trey Lance might. Right, And then I
• 20:07
  Speaker 8: just wanted to ask you a quick question. If the
• 20:12
  Speaker 8: draft started today or whenever it starts, if you had
• 20:15
  Speaker 8: to guess which position the Cowboys were leaning in the
• 20:18
  Speaker 8: first round, which one would you give the most stalk to?
• 20:21
  Speaker 8: And I'll leave it at that, Thanks Nick.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Thank you well to answer that question, which way would
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: they be leaning? Such a such a tough one, because
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: while twelve is considered early, it's you know, it's about
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: what two hours for the draft. I mean it's what
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: ten minutes or so a pick, So that's about two
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: hours after the draft. So much can happen and will
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: happen in that time.
• 20:50
  Speaker 8: And so.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I think offensive line, I see wide receiver happening. You
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: know as well, I don't see a running back because
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't think it'll be gent And then
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: I don't think they'll take the next best running back
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if they don't take a running
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: back until you know, it could be Saturday. I mean,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: we think that they're just gonna take a running back
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: because they need one. But I don't know. I mean,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: you know, there's there's two schools of thought here. Do
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: you need a younger, dynamic running back to with this
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: team because you don't have one? Yeah, maybe can anybody
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: come in here and rush for a thousand yards like
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: they did last year? You know, don't forget that like
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: that that that aspect too. I don't. I don't. I'm
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: not saying I necessarily agree with that, but I think
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: there's a group of people in the building that sort
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: of think that way. So that maybe Javonte Williams, Miles
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Sanders can do the job. And I'm not saying they
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: don't get any running back. They'll they'll get some, but
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: it's maybe not as high of a need as people think.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: But I would say offensive line wide receiver and never
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: rule out the pass rusher. I mean, just that's a
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: position of need always. You always need more pass rushers,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: and so that if you're going to reach for a
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: position at twelve or maybe trade back and you're at fifteen,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: seventeen whatever. I never rule out a pass rusher. And
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: then to answer your question or your comment about the
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Milton trade, I totally agree with you. I don't know,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: you're right. The Cowboys never get credit for that kind
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: of stuff. But when you think about what they need
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: or they need to get a young quarterback, that's basically
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: what they got. That's what they got here in a
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: second year guy with a ton of upside, very raw,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: like you said, strong armed. He'll be a fun player
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: to watch a training camp in the preseason. But you know,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see how it goes from there. But yeah,
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, you don't necessarily have to go draft a quarterback.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: Now you got Will Greer. Also you have now you've
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: got Milton here in the little rumors that maybe the
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: Cowboys are still looking at other quarterbacks out there, so
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: you can just google the list and see the names
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: of players that are out there, and you know, it
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: sounds like that that's still on the table too. So
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: I don't think the Cowboys are done looking at quarterbacks.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: But for the Milton trade and what they gave up
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: and you know, basically just a sixth round pick. But
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: they gave up a fifth got a seventh, so you
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: know that they gave up one of their fifth comp
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: picks picked up another seventh in the process to get
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: to get Joe Milton, who was a sixth round pick
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: last year. All right, let's go see we have another
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: caller on the line. Go to Zach in Germany.
• 23:50
  Speaker 14: Zach, Nick, what's going on?
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: How are you doing?
• 23:53
  Speaker 11: Good?
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Good? Good? Talk to me.
• 23:56
  Speaker 14: Actually I should start. I should start with one thing.
• 23:59
  Speaker 14: So Anthony Oas refers to as Nick the quick, but
• 24:01
  Speaker 14: I have to ask, does he understand that your calf
• 24:03
  Speaker 14: has made a paper machet?
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: That's true, I mean und true. I don't think he
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: knows that. I don't. I don't think he knows that
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: or cares. He just kind of has that Nick van
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Exel vibes and I like it. It's fine, it works good.
• 24:18
  Speaker 11: Okay.
• 24:18
  Speaker 14: With that said, do you think you a Rich Heisman
• 24:22
  Speaker 14: would have a better forty? You think you could beat Rich?
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: Do I have to wear the suits? So that's what
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: he does. He wears the suit, right, he has to
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: run in.
• 24:32
  Speaker 14: You're more of a button up guy, so I don't
• 24:34
  Speaker 14: know if you're gonna put the blazer on.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: I think he would. He might have a better forty
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: time if we're just like he's running and then I'm
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: over here in this part of the country and I'm running.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: But if we raced, I'm not gonna lose. I'm not
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: gonna lose Verchizon Zomsar, I'm gonna I'm gonna be. If
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: he's next to me, I'm gonna beat him. Now, what
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: will my calf look like and feel like? After that?
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: After those? After that, you know, five point nine seconds
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: or whatever. I don't know. I don't know what is
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: he where's he run?
• 25:06
  Speaker 6: Uh?
• 25:07
  Speaker 15: Right?
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Is it in the five now?
• 25:10
  Speaker 14: I don't know, five low six or something like that.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm tall, I got some stride, but I
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: gotta I gotta, I gotta get going here. I don't know.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: I haven't run in a while, and probably for a
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: good thing. We're not gonna be We're not gonna be
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: doing a lot of a lot of running.
• 25:24
  Speaker 11: So that's good.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I did something. I did some dancing. I did
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: some dancing not too long ago, uh with with my
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: my daughter in front in a stage and all that.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: That was two minutes long, and I felt that there,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: so uh, that's the case. I certainly won't be doing
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: a lot of running.
• 25:40
  Speaker 14: All right, I got stretch, Rather you got a stretch.
• 25:41
  Speaker 14: What do you got Now, I'll go. I'll go based
• 25:44
  Speaker 14: off of what you were just talking about. Actually, and
• 25:46
  Speaker 14: I think part of the issue, you know, we've had
• 25:48
  Speaker 14: this talk in the past with the philosophy of the
• 25:50
  Speaker 14: Cowboys when you put so much emphasis on the draft,
• 25:54
  Speaker 14: you know, and then look at this year's free agency
• 25:56
  Speaker 14: is a good example. We once again just kind of
• 25:59
  Speaker 14: fill some fill some roles. We're not really signing big starters.
• 26:04
  Speaker 14: And it's a good difference between how the Cowboys operate
• 26:06
  Speaker 14: and other teams, and we use Philly a lot. Philly
• 26:09
  Speaker 14: is not afraid to go make a big trade or
• 26:11
  Speaker 14: go sign a big free agent like Saquon and that's
• 26:15
  Speaker 14: why they're it's not so much of a risk for
• 26:18
  Speaker 14: them if they don't hit on all of their draft picks,
• 26:20
  Speaker 14: where for Dallas we don't make those types of trades.
• 26:23
  Speaker 14: We'll make, you know, the lower end trades, give up
• 26:26
  Speaker 14: a fourth, fifth, et cetera. But we put so much
• 26:28
  Speaker 14: emphasis on the draft that they have to hit. But
• 26:31
  Speaker 14: then you get the guidance of the world where you know,
• 26:34
  Speaker 14: most of the time we're drafting in the team's low twenties,
• 26:37
  Speaker 14: where those guys you know, they might work, they might not.
• 26:39
  Speaker 14: We've had two back to back drafts where it really
• 26:42
  Speaker 14: hasn't worked out for us, and now it's put us
• 26:43
  Speaker 14: pigeonholed us into this position where once again, here we're saying, hey,
• 26:47
  Speaker 14: we have to hit on this pick. Right, What I
• 26:49
  Speaker 14: would actually argue would and I know you don't, you
• 26:52
  Speaker 14: don't like to trade up, but I would actually think,
• 26:56
  Speaker 14: you know, in this year's draft, right listening to the
• 26:59
  Speaker 14: Draft Show and other guys, there's about fourteen to fifteen
• 27:02
  Speaker 14: first rounders on most people's boards. I wouldn't be afraid
• 27:06
  Speaker 14: to trade up to get the guy that you want
• 27:08
  Speaker 14: and give up, you know, one of those assets if
• 27:10
  Speaker 14: you know it's going to hit now you never truly know,
• 27:13
  Speaker 14: but you know you're trying to peg that, whether it's
• 27:16
  Speaker 14: going up and getting Hunter or Gent or whoever you
• 27:20
  Speaker 14: you know you identify, I would say I'd rather do
• 27:24
  Speaker 14: that and get the sure thing than the trade back,
• 27:26
  Speaker 14: because that's another scenario. People are bringing up, Hey why
• 27:28
  Speaker 14: don't we trade back to sixteen seventeen eighteen, But then
• 27:31
  Speaker 14: you run the same risk, you know, you're gonna run
• 27:32
  Speaker 14: that same risk of we get the guite and the
• 27:34
  Speaker 14: guy that we need to develop. Look at all the
• 27:36
  Speaker 14: offensive linemen. Every one of them has either an injury
• 27:39
  Speaker 14: history or technique issues, you know, So in this year's draft,
• 27:43
  Speaker 14: I think that's where it's concerning. And when you do
• 27:46
  Speaker 14: that year after year, this is what we get. So
• 27:48
  Speaker 14: I just want to get your thoughts on that. Would
• 27:50
  Speaker 14: you rather trade up, stay put? You know our trade back.
• 27:54
  Speaker 14: But for me, if you identify one of those guys
• 27:56
  Speaker 14: as the guy, give up the third go up to
• 27:59
  Speaker 14: pick or whatever, Zach and get your.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: Guy, let me ask you this before you hang up,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: because this is basically what you're asking. You have a
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: chance to get one great player out of this twenty
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: twenty five draft class. You're gonna get one great player,
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: or you're gonna get four good ones, four good players
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: and and good players. You hope, they're though, well, but
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, yeah, well, you hope everything. You know, you
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: hope you don't get hit by a bus. I mean, like,
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: we hope everything. But but what I'm saying is is that,
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: like you like, out of this this draft class, you're
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: gonna get one great player, he's gonna be in the
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: Pro Bowl three times, or you're gonna get four good players,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: solid good starters, probably not in the Pro maybe a
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Pro Bowl alternate once four good ones. What does this
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: team need? Does this team need that one great player
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: or does team need four good players? And that's that's
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: kind of what happens because if you trade up, you
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: trade up to get that guy, but you're probably not
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: gonna get a lot of good second, third, fourth rounders.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: But you should. Right, let's say trade back, you can
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: get a good player there. You got to get more
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: seconds and maybe another third, you're going to get more
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: good players.
• 29:07
  Speaker 14: So I'll argue for why I would go with the
• 29:11
  Speaker 14: one great player. Ye, MICA's draft is a good example.
• 29:14
  Speaker 14: Michael was a great player.
• 29:15
  Speaker 11: Out of that draft.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: I was thinking that, you know.
• 29:16
  Speaker 14: Where the rest of that draft kind of.
• 29:20
  Speaker 10: Good.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got a great, good player, but he's a
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: good player.
• 29:23
  Speaker 14: Yeah, you got a great contract, and you're right on that.
• 29:26
  Speaker 14: I would go with the great player because they have
• 29:27
  Speaker 14: the ability to change your team. Now, if you can
• 29:29
  Speaker 14: go up as high as to get Hunter, whatever that's
• 29:31
  Speaker 14: going to cost, you do it, because he's a dual
• 29:33
  Speaker 14: threat one and you could either make him great just
• 29:35
  Speaker 14: at one position or hopefully good at two. But either
• 29:39
  Speaker 14: either way the other pieces you have to change your
• 29:41
  Speaker 14: philosophy of not everything has to be focused strictly draft.
• 29:46
  Speaker 14: And that's the problem with the Cowboys. You know, I'm
• 29:48
  Speaker 14: not saying we have to go back to five where
• 29:49
  Speaker 14: we you know, sign Henry Ferguson and all those guys
• 29:52
  Speaker 14: to these massive contracts. But if you can make certain
• 29:54
  Speaker 14: key moves key, you know, sometimes it's the high end trade.
• 29:58
  Speaker 14: I hate referring to the Eagle, but they did it
• 30:00
  Speaker 14: with aj Brown. You know, then they're not afraid to
• 30:02
  Speaker 14: go and sign the best running back on the market.
• 30:06
  Speaker 14: And they drafted, well, yeah, their defense is all young guys,
• 30:09
  Speaker 14: and they hit on those draft picks. They get that,
• 30:11
  Speaker 14: But all their money's on the offense, offensive line, their quarterback.
• 30:14
  Speaker 14: They're both receivers and they're running back. But the other
• 30:17
  Speaker 14: thing is they made good trades. If you look at
• 30:18
  Speaker 14: the next two three years, they have multiple seconds, multiple
• 30:21
  Speaker 14: thirds because they're not afraid to move around, make those moves.
• 30:25
  Speaker 14: So I would argue I'd rather go get the top
• 30:27
  Speaker 14: end great player because if you could do that, you know,
• 30:31
  Speaker 14: every year where you're getting just one or two great
• 30:33
  Speaker 14: players and bring in a couple other guys here and there.
• 30:36
  Speaker 14: That's the difference between getting to play, you know, divisional
• 30:40
  Speaker 14: round or getting beyond it. All right, in my opinion, Okay,
• 30:44
  Speaker 14: I think I think we need great not good.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: Sounds good, thanks, Zach. I mean that's a that's a
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: very good argument. I'll say this. If you're going to
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: have that free agency mindset, which hasn't really changed, even
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: though they did a little bit more this year, but
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: not not any big splashes. One thing I've always thought
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: of is you can't have that second round mentality where
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: you're gonna just go and get some wild card and
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: hope that that because he has an injury or off
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: the field issues or whatever, that that you know his
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: value is going to be higher than what it is.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: He can't have that mentality if if if you're going
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: to put all the stock, like Zach says, all the
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: stock on the draft, then I don't think you can
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: have that second round mindset that that's got to be
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: another good, solid player, not one that man, we hope
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: all the things people are saying, but we think he's
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: going to be better and we're gonna get value like
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: they did with Jalen Smith, like they've done that. They
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: tried with uh Kelvin, Joseph, They've They've tried with a
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: lot of players uh In in the second round, and
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: you know, and Sam Williams is another one where you
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: know that they think, well they can get some some
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: better value. Then then's being reported and hasn't really worked out,
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: you know. I mean, Trayvon Diggs was a good second
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: round pick, but that wasn't really from that mindset. All right,
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Irene and Falls Church, Virginia.
• 32:13
  Speaker 16: Hey, good morning, how are you guys doing good?
• 32:15
  Speaker 7: How are you doing doing well?
• 32:17
  Speaker 11: Doing well?
• 32:18
  Speaker 16: All right, So i'll sandwich comment in with two questions.
• 32:23
  Speaker 16: So number one, agent zero, is this a culture change
• 32:27
  Speaker 16: or a marketing for life?
• 32:29
  Speaker 14: Congrats?
• 32:30
  Speaker 16: Congrats the demo he gets to wear his zero and
• 32:33
  Speaker 16: I'm sure that will be It's not even in the
• 32:35
  Speaker 16: fresh shop yet, but I already checked, so I'm sure
• 32:37
  Speaker 16: I'm not a loan in that.
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: Anyway.
• 32:40
  Speaker 16: So for the record, I wanted Rashaun Slater over Micah.
• 32:43
  Speaker 16: I'm never going to go back and claim revision of history,
• 32:46
  Speaker 16: so I'm not against a pick of o line. But
• 32:50
  Speaker 16: Rashaan Slater was like a really, really clean prospect, and
• 32:53
  Speaker 16: I think there just seems to be more questions about
• 32:55
  Speaker 16: O line this time around. You could say the same
• 32:59
  Speaker 16: thing for wide receiver though, And I think even if
• 33:02
  Speaker 16: if we do get somebody at O line at twelve,
• 33:05
  Speaker 16: it's still going to be an upgrade, even if it's not,
• 33:07
  Speaker 16: you know, the greatest prospect in the last decade. So
• 33:12
  Speaker 16: I think they have to balance that when they're evaluating.
• 33:16
  Speaker 16: And then if we get I guess wiped out on
• 33:19
  Speaker 16: genty and Ted are kind of like the hot pick
• 33:21
  Speaker 16: if they fall to you, and it feels like they'd
• 33:23
  Speaker 16: have to fall to you, right, But leaning into some
• 33:26
  Speaker 16: of the draft buzz, if we don't have trade partners
• 33:29
  Speaker 16: to go back, do you think the more likely pick
• 33:32
  Speaker 16: is Hampton or Golden And I'll take it.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: Up there at twelve? Yeah, twelve, that's twelve, Okay, all right,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: thanks Ireen. I think I don't think it would be Hampton.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't believe that they will. I think
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: they would take gent if he was there at twelve.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: I don't think he will be, but I think they
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: would take him there. I don't know if it'll they
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: would take Hampton or any other running back. Like I
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: said earlier, I just don't feel like they think think
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: that they they're going to, you know, try to get
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: a running back that's you know, too high. Not saying
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: that they don't take one, but but well we'll see again.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: This is the time of year where it's it's a
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: lot of smoke screen. You know, you hear one thing
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: say another just because one scout leaves the meeting room
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: and says, I don't know if we're going to take
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: a running back or I don't know if they're going
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: to do this or receiver. I don't think they like
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: they don't like this offensive tackle. It doesn't mean that
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: Jerry doesn't. It doesn't mean that Will McClay doesn't. So
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: if you guys watch the draft show, you sit a rund,
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: you know that they got what twelve guys sitting in here,
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: and they have different opinions on different players, you know,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: So same thing happens with scouts and coaches and players
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: and things like that, especially the coaches that see things differently. Also,
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: you mentioned over shown, Yeah he's gonna wear zero. You know,
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: it's been one of those storylines that I'm just glad
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: that that's over. I think it's kind of taken on
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: a life of its own. You know, he needs to
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: be real careful. I mean, like like, it's about playing
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: good football. It's not about numbers and all that stuff.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: And everybody everybody likes him, everybody likes uh de Marvin overshown.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: But you know, let's you know, hopefully and and I
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: think he will hopefully. You know, his mindset is getting back.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: He said that the other day. That's the most important thing.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: He said. It's not about wearing zero, the first to
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: wear zero. No one cares really about that. They really don't.
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: What they care about is is is he said he
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: wants to be comeback player of the year. Well that
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: that's great. That's what people care about that because when
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: he's on the field and he's going flying around the
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: ball and doing his thing. Uh, he can be a
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: really good player. And we saw that before he got hurt.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: And that's what I think people are caring about. Uh,
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: you don't, you know, you don't want to get too
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: far down the road and and and and worry about
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: the wrong stuff. There were other linebackers that were drafted
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: around here that changed numbers that that kind of fell
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: into you don't want to be that. And I'm not
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: saying he's going to be that, but I'm just saying,
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: gotta be careful. Hopefully the focus is on the rehab
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: for him getting back and getting stronger and getting back
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: on the field, because because when that happened, he can
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: be a really good player and that's exactly what the
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: Cowboys need. Let's go to break here real quick on

• 38:25
  Speaker 1: go to the phone lines again. Lewis is in Lanston, Oklahoma. Lewis,
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: what's up?
• 38:32
  Speaker 21: Not much, man, not much?
• 38:33
  Speaker 11: Man.
• 38:33
  Speaker 21: Get my little opinion about them making the trade for
• 38:36
  Speaker 21: Joe Milton. I appreciate. I appreciate them trying to bring
• 38:40
  Speaker 21: in some extra help, a backup, maybe somebody in the future,
• 38:45
  Speaker 21: especially with Dak's contract. At the end of At the
• 38:47
  Speaker 21: end of Dak's contract, you kind of still have the
• 38:50
  Speaker 21: rights to Joe Milton. But I was wondering because I
• 38:53
  Speaker 21: haven't really got to listen, so I don't know if
• 38:55
  Speaker 21: anybody's bought it up. Do you still think about around
• 38:58
  Speaker 21: trading camp they bring in like a ring quarterback, because
• 39:00
  Speaker 21: as much as I like Joe Milton, you know, he
• 39:03
  Speaker 21: doesn't have a whole bunch of indgame experience, and then
• 39:05
  Speaker 21: Will Greer doesn't have a whole bunch of in game experience.
• 39:08
  Speaker 21: So do you think they bring in a veteran quarterback
• 39:11
  Speaker 21: on something small, couple million dollars or something like that,
• 39:14
  Speaker 21: just to you know, another body and just in case
• 39:18
  Speaker 21: as an insurance as the season goes on.
• 39:21
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I do think that that.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, go ahead, Sorry to cut you off, go ahead, lost, No,
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: you're good.
• 39:29
  Speaker 21: And I just was I don't want to harp on
• 39:32
  Speaker 21: the Mica thing. You know, everybody is kind of talking
• 39:35
  Speaker 21: about it. I really do think it's going to get done.
• 39:38
  Speaker 21: It's just, honestly, when it comes to the time, and
• 39:41
  Speaker 21: I'm not the biggest fan of the waiting and waiting
• 39:43
  Speaker 21: and see and wait till the end of the training
• 39:45
  Speaker 21: camp or wait right before the game starts, or like
• 39:49
  Speaker 21: all of that pandering, and I'm not a fan of it.
• 39:52
  Speaker 21: So I wish they would hurry up and get that done.
• 39:55
  Speaker 21: And then my next question is, what do you think
• 39:57
  Speaker 21: do they do you think they bringing up? I mean,
• 40:00
  Speaker 21: I know they're going to go through the draft, but
• 40:02
  Speaker 21: I still worry about the big.
• 40:04
  Speaker 15: Man in the middle.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: As far as a big.
• 40:06
  Speaker 21: Nose tackle, you think they bring somebody in during training camp,
• 40:10
  Speaker 21: because that's the onest that's the biggest thing that I'm
• 40:13
  Speaker 21: worried about. And bringing in the body.
• 40:14
  Speaker 12: As far as give me a three.
• 40:16
  Speaker 21: Hundred pounds what Brian brought a trash can full of dirt,
• 40:20
  Speaker 21: somebody in movable. You know, I need them to bring
• 40:24
  Speaker 21: somebody in like that. As much as I like Mazi,
• 40:26
  Speaker 21: I need them to bring another body in like that.
• 40:28
  Speaker 21: Even if you bring in another three takes, let them
• 40:30
  Speaker 21: be three hundred pounds plus. But that's it, man, I'll
• 40:34
  Speaker 21: get off the phone. Let's how to get in Listen
• 40:36
  Speaker 21: when I can.
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: Thanks. I appreciate it, Lewis. You know, going back to that,
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: you know one technique, big old defensive tackle. Sloppy guys.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: When you look at Matt Eberflu's defenses, well when he
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: was here with the Cowboys, you know it was Rod
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: Marinelli's defense. You know he was the linebackers coach, but
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: a lot of people thought he was kind of the
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: co coordinator there, and they didn't have a lot of
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: big guys defensive tackle, Tyrone Crawford, Nick Hayden, you know
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: they're at tackle. When he was with the Colts, that
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: that wasn't somebody that wasn't a position that he really
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: had a lot of, like big, you know, size defensive tackles.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: They still stay in their gaps and stop the run.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: They also kind of get up the field, And I
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: think there's two mindsets there. You know, you get these
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: big bodies that you're not necessarily pushing the pile this way,
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: but you're not gonna get pushed back, and you can
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: stop the run and things like that and hope that
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: your guys off the edge make the play, which you
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: know in this case the Cowboys have those guys obviously,
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: and Micah and you know some other pass rushers Dante Fowler,
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: I think's gonna help. You also can look at it
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: and say, I want my guys. That's what Marinelli's thought was.
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: I want guys that rush the quarterback, get up the field,
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: create so much pressure that you have to worry about
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: that you're not worried as much much about running it. Yeah,
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: you're gonna run it at times, but we're in and
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: that you know they're gonna be solid and get it stopped.
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: But the pressure is going to be in the quarterback,
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: you know, getting up the field. So that I think
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: is kind of what the mindset is. So don't be
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: surprised if you don't. You're looking at the roster, you
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: just don't see that guy. You may not have the
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: Linvall Joseph type player. I'm not saying you won't have
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: three hundred pound lineman, but but the big old sloppy tackle.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: Not sure if that guy is on this defense. Well,
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see how it goes. All right, let's
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: go to Davion in Illinois. No, sorry, Michael Bowling, Green, Kentucky.
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: Didn't see that one up there. Michael, what's up man?
• 42:40
  Speaker 10: What's going on?
• 42:41
  Speaker 9: Doing good?
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: How are you? I'mstp oh?
• 42:45
  Speaker 9: I waited?
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 42:50
  Speaker 9: Are you gonna have a show Wednesday after next the
• 42:53
  Speaker 9: day before the draft? Yes, okay, I wasn't sure. I
• 42:59
  Speaker 9: don't know how much stuff you have to do.
• 43:02
  Speaker 19: You know, coming out, we'll do it.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, the only schedule that might change somewhat is Thursday,
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: but I don't know that that's that'll be discussed on Chris.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Chris is probably working on that. H Those those shows
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: that happened earlier in the day on Thursday, I think
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: there's three of them, So we'll see about that. But
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: but as far as the other shows, I think my
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: show Wednesday, yeah, we'll be there.
• 43:29
  Speaker 13: Well.
• 43:29
  Speaker 9: When Chris answered, I mean he said he said he
• 43:32
  Speaker 9: was busy, he had a lot of work to do.
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: So, yeah, I thought a thing on Instagram last week
• 43:39
  Speaker 5: and I believed it.
• 43:40
  Speaker 9: And found that it was April Fools shoke. They said
• 43:44
  Speaker 9: cowboys are releasing digs to free up money to pay Micah.
• 43:48
  Speaker 9: Because I was like, well, that makes sense. I've been
• 43:52
  Speaker 9: kind of sad about it, but it was a believable
• 43:56
  Speaker 9: April Fools shoke.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that is believable. I mean that that that
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: could happen. But they don't need they don't need to
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: free up money to sign Micah. They don't need to
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: do that because signing Micah is going to be less
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: money than what he's counting right now. They could free
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: up money by signing Micah, That's what they could do.
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: So they don't need to do that. It sounded good
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: and all that, and I don't really know the future
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: for Trayvon Diggs. It'll depend a lot on how he
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: returns from injury this year, when he returns all that stuff,
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: and how he plays, obviously, but we'll we'll, we'll see.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: It's it's an uphill battle for him, uh, with the
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: injury that he had, the timing of it. But you know,
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: he's a playmaker. We know that. We've seen that. And
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: I thought he played pretty well last year coming off
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: the injury that he had. I thought he I thought
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: he played well. I'm not I'd never get caught up
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: in those cornerbacks that go and and and do they
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: ta do they don't. Deon Sanders is the greatest football player,
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: in my opinion of all times didn't tackle. And he's
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: on my team. He's one of the first picks in
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: his prime pun intended. He he is one of the
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: best football players to ever play. So, yeah, the knock
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: on him and the people that didn't like the flastiness,
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: the earrings, the gold chains, the rap and all the
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: ego and the arrogance, then they oh he doesn't tackle.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: Oh fine, but you know he shut down half the field.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: He made Larry Brown into a really good cornerback for
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: one year. So anyways, tray Von Diggs, go cover your guy,
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: make plays. I thought he does that pretty well, and
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: so I don't. I don't really knock his game for
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: the tackling whatever. I don't do that.
• 45:47
  Speaker 9: I got one more quick question. Yeah, I heard that
• 45:51
  Speaker 9: Dak was like spy him down. I heard, and he's
• 45:54
  Speaker 9: lost as much as fifty pounds.
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: Did you hear that on April first?
• 45:58
  Speaker 9: No other days?
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: Okay, that he's lost how much I've heard?
• 46:04
  Speaker 19: I can't.
• 46:04
  Speaker 9: I find it hard to believe that he's lost as
• 46:07
  Speaker 9: much as fifty pounds. That just doesn't that just doesn't
• 46:11
  Speaker 9: seem But they said he's slimming down, So I don't
• 46:15
  Speaker 9: know what that's going to do for his game.
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: Do you said five zero or five to one fifteen?
• 46:22
  Speaker 9: I've heard, I've heard as much as fifty pounds, which
• 46:26
  Speaker 9: sounds insane, can't be true. But they said he is
• 46:30
  Speaker 9: slimming down.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, they've got him listed in last year's rosters
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: to twenty eight. My math says that fifty pounds is
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: one seventy eight and turpen weighs one to fifty five.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: So let's hold that swimming down.
• 46:52
  Speaker 6: Though.
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: Let's hope that's not the case. I don't think that's
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: that's that's close to that, deuce Van. No, No, he
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: hadn't lost fifty pounds.
• 47:05
  Speaker 10: I saw him.
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: I saw him two days ago. I've seen him working
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: out some Uh. He looks good. He looks good. He's
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: he hasn't lost fifty pounds, and he doesn't need to
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: lose fifty pounds like like, that's not that's not that's
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: not his problem like that, that's not the problem at all.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: So he whatever it is, is fine. He looks very
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: dak like. He looks almost the same. So I don't
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: know what you heard or read or whatever. He might
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: have lost some weight, but I I he doesn't. He
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: doesn't look any different. So to me, all right, Michael,
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: good talking to you. Let's keep it rolling, let's keep
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: it going. Here. We're going to Illinois. Dave yarns in Illinois.
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: He's been holding Davey on what's up?
• 47:48
  Speaker 11: What it do?
• 47:49
  Speaker 8: What it do?
• 47:50
  Speaker 11: What it do? My god, whats going on with that?
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: How are you?

• 47:59
  Speaker 11: is getting out work and Uh yeah, excited to get
• 48:04
  Speaker 11: on what do you? What do you?
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: What is your draft thoughts?
• 48:11
  Speaker 11: First of all, man, it was so good to wake
• 48:15
  Speaker 11: up when not wake up, but open up Twitter today
• 48:18
  Speaker 11: and see agent zero. I haven't bought a Cowboy jersey
• 48:22
  Speaker 11: since I got dig so man, I'm had to go
• 48:24
  Speaker 11: on cop there. That's that's it, that's history to making there.
• 48:27
  Speaker 11: We never had a zero, so I'm like, this is
• 48:30
  Speaker 11: that is so cool now as a player. No, that
• 48:34
  Speaker 11: is so cool to have a zero out there as
• 48:37
  Speaker 11: a Cowboy star. Man, it's gonna be I think I'm
• 48:39
  Speaker 11: about to get that jersey. All right, Uh, draft out hopefully.
• 48:45
  Speaker 11: I mean, I don't know why Kyper keep up giving
• 48:47
  Speaker 11: us Mario Hampton at twelve. I guess you know, we
• 48:50
  Speaker 11: gotta do what you gotta do for I think, yeah,
• 48:53
  Speaker 11: I don't think that's gonna happen. I think if we're
• 48:56
  Speaker 11: gonna do that be a trade bag. It's just a
• 48:57
  Speaker 11: little too rich for my Yeah, that for me, I don't.
• 49:03
  Speaker 11: I really ain't feeling that. But hopefully, I mean, I'll
• 49:06
  Speaker 11: tell you, I'm I'm team Weapon. I want to I
• 49:09
  Speaker 11: want to eat a tech. I mean, I would be
• 49:12
  Speaker 11: okay with golden, but still I want to trade back
• 49:14
  Speaker 11: to him too. But yeah, I'm all about team weapon.
• 49:19
  Speaker 11: I don't want no office line. I know me and
• 49:21
  Speaker 11: Dylan Beever I battles about it, but I just I can't.
• 49:25
  Speaker 11: I just can't wrap my mind around having that office
• 49:27
  Speaker 11: line in the first round. I don't want to go
• 49:29
  Speaker 11: a boy. It developing. We're just trying to figure out.
• 49:32
  Speaker 11: And Dad had a good question from Germany. I was,
• 49:37
  Speaker 11: I'm I'm with you. I want I want four good guys.
• 49:40
  Speaker 11: I don't really they were a great one that is cool,
• 49:44
  Speaker 11: but yeah, I want me some four good ones because
• 49:46
  Speaker 11: I think this team needs good players. We got we
• 49:49
  Speaker 11: got a corps of potentially great with Dad, c d, Micah,
• 49:55
  Speaker 11: maybe Demo if if he can can't bounce back on
• 49:57
  Speaker 11: his injury, then we got the particul the great players
• 50:02
  Speaker 11: in that. So give me, give me some four good
• 50:04
  Speaker 11: guys or go along with that corps and just man
• 50:06
  Speaker 11: we can really start cooking.
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you. You know you made a statement
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: about the offensive line. You're you're not feeling that and
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: you're saying that you don't want a guy to develop.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: But you know, if you're drafted a guy at offensive
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: lineman at twelve. There's not a lot of developing there
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: shouldn't be, Yeah, I mean, plug in and play. That's
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: That's the one concern that I have is for the
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: last ten years, you've had not had zero worries about
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: your right guard position, and right now you don't have
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: a player I guess Tyler Smith at left guard. You
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: don't have a lot of worries there. But I like
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: two or three linemen like that. So that's why I
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: would probably do it. And I'm not saying you have
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: to draft a guard, but I'm drafting the tackle. I'm
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: drafting somebody I want less people to worry about for
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: the offensive line. And that's that's probably why I keep
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: going back there. That's why I would say an offensive
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: lineman because you just lost a Hall of Famer and
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: and you don't have that, and I think you can
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: get good value with the twelfth overall pick. There's five
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: or six teams not doing that. They got to get quarterback,
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: they got to get receiver, they got to get pass rusher.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: So go for it. That's why you're gonna get really good.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: To me, you get really good value with the offensive
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: line if you if you do it at twelfth That's
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: what That's why I keep going there.
• 51:26
  Speaker 11: But but I mean the people they're trying to get
• 51:28
  Speaker 11: there is either tackles. They're trying to slide into the
• 51:31
  Speaker 11: guard or the Booker guy. And like everybody's swearing about
• 51:35
  Speaker 11: this guy, but I mean Alabama lineman or yeah, yeah,
• 51:40
  Speaker 11: I mean yeah, it's like you know, them guys come in.
• 51:44
  Speaker 11: I mean the GIANTZ line is full of them, and
• 51:46
  Speaker 11: it's like, Okay, I'm with you.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: I understand that, you know, and but but I'm don't
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: be worried about the guys that they're sliding into guard.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: I mean that that that's what happened. That's what Zach
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: Martin did. I mean Zach Martin did that. He is
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: a and a lot of these guys are are going
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: to be guards and they're going to be great, great guard.
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: Tyler Smith is another one. He played tackle at Tulsa
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: because he could. He could be on the outside. He's
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: quick enough, strong enough, he could do all that. But
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: he's going to be a better guard. And that's what
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: that's what he's done. And I think you know that's
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: that might be what Kelvin Banks from Texas or Wild
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: Campbell from l s U. That might be the case,
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: but that's not a knock on them. I mean they
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: I think they can handle it.
• 52:29
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I just I'm.
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: I ain't trying to change your mind because I don't
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: I don't have I mean, I who am I I mean?
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: I I just say what I think could help this team.
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: I I think you can have a better opportunity for
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: a plug and play guy to right here at twelve.
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: And don't throw Tyler Gutting at me, because that that
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: was a forced pick late in the first round. They
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: needed a lineman. They knew he was raw, they knew
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: was a project, and that's exactly what he's been. Not
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: as good as they thought he would be his first year,
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: but still they knew there was gonna be some work there.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: But you draft the lineman at twelve. I'm not worried
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: about Tyler Gouiton's feelings. He can play right tackle. He
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: can he can figure it out. I needed a plug
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: and play player, and I think the position to do
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: that is probably left tackle, maybe corner. You draft the
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: corner at twelve. Overall, he should be able to come
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: right in and start. So that's that's kind of my thought. There.
• 53:28
  Speaker 11: I agree, I mean, but I'm not. I'm not out.
• 53:31
  Speaker 11: The jeris for me, and I think guy gonna be
• 53:33
  Speaker 11: all right. I think he might be in the weight
• 53:38
  Speaker 11: room like they say, and they I think it'd be okay.
• 53:40
  Speaker 11: I think he need better coaching, and I think we
• 53:43
  Speaker 11: got one with Connor and Clayton. But I think we
• 53:47
  Speaker 11: I want to and I just I just have a
• 53:49
  Speaker 11: sneaky feeling that Brocket is gonna he's gonna battle, all right, man.
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: He's gonna talk about brock He's going to There's no
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: doubt about it.
• 54:00
  Speaker 11: I'm I'm not really giving up on him quite yet.
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: You don't have to give up on him, all right,
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: Dave Yon, good stuff, good stuff from you. Let's go
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: to Carolina. He's on the road. He's trucking. I think
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: in Lynndale, Texas. I don't even know where that is. Carolina.
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: What's up?
• 54:17
  Speaker 11: What's up?
• 54:18

• 54:33
  Speaker 19: In the past couple of years I've been in take
• 54:35
  Speaker 19: them a lot. I'll tell you.
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: That that might need to be your residence. Don't pay
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: state income tax.
• 54:42
  Speaker 8: I mean that will be cool.
• 54:46
  Speaker 6: Too big, you could never get out of here.
• 54:50
  Speaker 8: I like South Carolina.
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: I like it nice and small.
• 54:54
  Speaker 19: Hen and be home if I need.
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: You all this time?
• 54:59
  Speaker 11: All right, go ahea, what do you got South Carolina?
• 55:02
  Speaker 6: Man?
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: Came on, you can't can't do that, man, I am
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: so sorry. I don't know the difference, but I bet
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: you there is a big one if you ask the
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: previle down there.
• 55:10
  Speaker 6: But I don't know there's there's a big difference. But
• 55:16
  Speaker 6: all right, I'm on a touch back on what Gavin
• 55:19
  Speaker 6: said earlier in the show about Joe Milton. Yeah, I
• 55:23
  Speaker 6: mean I was kind of it was kind of exciting
• 55:24
  Speaker 6: that you know, got some younger talent there, a mobile
• 55:28
  Speaker 6: talent at that somebody who can throw run basically has
• 55:31
  Speaker 6: a strong arm. Now, this is this is what I've
• 55:35
  Speaker 6: been futering with. Right, do you think you know? I
• 55:38
  Speaker 6: got a couple of questions, But the first one is
• 55:39
  Speaker 6: do you think that this is like.
• 55:40
  Speaker 19: A safety net for them.
• 55:42
  Speaker 6: Since you know that has been you know, getting hurt
• 55:45
  Speaker 6: so frequently, Because I mean, that's be realistic and then
• 55:48
  Speaker 6: against Lill grill, but I mean that goes down real
• 55:52
  Speaker 6: grill go in.
• 55:53
  Speaker 19: I mean, I don't think we went four or five games.
• 55:56
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he barely made it happen with Cooper and.
• 56:00
  Speaker 11: That was a strict Yeah.
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: I agree with you. I agree. I don't. I don't
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: know if they're a backup quarterback, the true backup to Dak.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he's on the roster right now.
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: He might be. He might be Joe Milton. I I
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: saw him the other day, did his interview with Tommy Yarish.
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's a big dude. I mean he I
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: mean I was, I was like, wow, like, you know,
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: I just didn't I didn't expect that. And he's definitely
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: got a big arm. But he's wrong. He's got to
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: get you know, he's got to get you know, it
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: figured out. And you know that's exciting though, you know
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: with Dak coming back and and and Milton and and
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: then well we'll see, we'll see, you know, maybe they
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: draft someone. They don't have to, they don't have to
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: draft the quarterback, but they still could.
• 56:53
  Speaker 19: I mean, who's I mean, like, when you're talking about
• 56:56
  Speaker 19: later round draft.
• 56:58
  Speaker 4: Who would you really draft over you? When are we
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: talking about fifth round over Milton?
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: Oh? I don't know. If you have to draft him
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: over Milton, I mean they might. You're you're probably draft
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: him over Will Greer, you know, and keeping three quarterbacks.
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: So I don't, I don't know. I mean, honestly, yeah,
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: it was a really good move. I mean, it's that's
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: the time of the year. This is these are band
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: aid moves. You're you're putting band aids on on positions.
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: You don't it's not bleeding. You don't have to go
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: and and and fix this right now. And so that's
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: that's kind of what what it is. And so I
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: think though it was a great move, great move from
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: what they ended up giving up a comp fifth round
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: pick to solidify the position if they want to. Now,
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: if they want to, if they think that there's a
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: quarterback that's better, go for it. It's probably gonna push
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: Will Greer out. But then then those are your three guys.
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: And if they don't draft one, then then maybe they
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: still look at the see who's available, uh, in free agency.
• 58:02
  Speaker 5: So I got a question for you, right, the worst
• 58:08
  Speaker 5: this is the worst case scenario, right, Okay, say, say,
• 58:12
  Speaker 5: if you know nobody.
• 58:14
  Speaker 8: I've never want anybody here.
• 58:15
  Speaker 19: But just with his you know, frequency of being hurt
• 58:20
  Speaker 19: so much, say that goes down right, I'll just say,
• 58:23
  Speaker 19: first six games of the season, you're three and three
• 58:27
  Speaker 19: or you're yeah, let's say four and two, whatever the
• 58:31
  Speaker 19: case they need. And and you he can't come back
• 58:35
  Speaker 19: and Joe Milan can win you eight games?
• 58:39
  Speaker 11: Do you go back to that?
• 58:40
  Speaker 6: Oh my god, because just because he has a because
• 58:43
  Speaker 6: he has a contract and the money.
• 58:45
  Speaker 19: Then we've seen we've seen this before, you know, top being.
• 58:48
  Speaker 6: Quarterbacks a little bit older to hit her.
• 58:51
  Speaker 19: New young guy comes in in wows.
• 58:54
  Speaker 6: The whole front office. Are you too invested to go
• 58:58
  Speaker 6: to the younger down or you're sticking with Dak?
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: I mean that that's a heck of a scenario. But
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: we've seen it. We've seen it. Oh yeah, I mean
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: we saw with Dak in Romo. I mean, Dak just
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: kept winning. Dak wasn't better than Tony Romo. I mean
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: at his rookie year, he wasn't a better quarterback than
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: Tony Romo. But you couldn't do that. You couldn't change
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: it at the time. And that's why I said, four
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: or five years ago, three years ago, whenever that was
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: I made this comment and didn't happen. But I said,
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: if Cooper Rush wins five games in a row, I'm
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: not going to Dak. I'm not going back to Dak
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: on this. He's not if you win five games in
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: a row, I'm gonna stick with what's happening here. And
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: then that they won four in a row, he lost
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: to the Eagles, Dak comes back. All that just it's
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: more of a mojo thing than than that. So we'll
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: see that's there's a lot happening there. How was Dak
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: playing before the injury? How is you know, Milton is he?
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: Is he the reason they're winning? Or is it just
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: because the defense is playing well? So a lot of
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: factors involved there, but you know, ultimately you do, I've
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: been playing the better quarterback. I'm playing the better quarterback.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: But again that that is such a crazy scenario of
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: a guy that was a sixth round pick for the
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: Patriots who sucks. Well, hold on, I didn't finish. The
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: Patriots sucked last year. Okay, they weren't good at all,
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: and he was there and it wasn't an option to play,
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: so it's not like he was Dak. That was like, oh,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: we got to put Dak in and Dak takes him
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: and they take off. I'm just saying that he's a
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: sixth round type player with a strong arm. So to
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: say that he is going to jump in and be
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: a better option than Dak, well, a lot of the
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: stars have to align just perfectly. And that's what we're
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: doing in mid April here, we're doing scenarios like that.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: We can have fun and do all that. But I
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: find that very hard to believe that he is going
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: to be a better player than Dak Prescott right now.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: But if he is, I'm for it. It'll be fun
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: to watch.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 19: My last comment for you man seem.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: That seems like an That one seemed like an indur
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: but but to have another one, I can't wait for it.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: I can't wait.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 6: So you know I'll see that everybody. I love the
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 6: all season, I love the draft, I love the free agency.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 6: I'm not too big on that takes so long. I
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 6: am ready for football. I'm ready for football, even though
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 6: it's about to be.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 19: Preseason or however long it's gonna take for it to come.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 19: That's what I'm ready to see. That's is when We're
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 19: gonna see what type of chality he has. I mean,
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 19: of course it's backups, but it's the NFL.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 17: Man.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 6: If you're in the NFL, you got down back up
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 6: for the backup, and I'm gonna leave it at Dad.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 6: Can't wait till the preseason come, can't wait till this
• 1:01:54

• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: pro shops, concession and on Yetti dot com. All right
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: back here for probably about ten more minutes or so,
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: we got some more callers on the line. Let's go
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: to Derek at Seattle. He's been holding for a little bit. Derek,
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: what's up man, Hey.
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 12: Good morning, Hope Aul's going well in your life. Don't
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 12: go I don't repeat my anybody else. I just kind
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 12: of chimed in here, but so I might repeat myself
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 12: or somebody else. But yeah, offensive linemen like the last caller, Oh,
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 12: I really don't want to see that. I just think
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 12: the first three picks some order have to be receiver,
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 12: running back, and corner. I mean we're getting in. You
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 12: look at teams like Philly, the Rams, I mean, they're
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 12: so explosive because they have so many playmakers. We have
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 12: one CD, so we gotta I think we have to
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 12: improve that. And then the other thing is where do
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 12: you sit on I hate all this talk of value
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 12: and need. I'm more. I mean in the first round, yeah,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 12: go with value, the guy who could be an all pro.
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 12: But Dallas so many times in the second and third
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 12: rounds for they pick a guy because oh he's great value,
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 12: he was ranked high.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 10: Yeah, still here, but go for needs.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 12: I mean, all the guys. Once you get past the
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 12: top twenty five, the next eighty guys are pretty close.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 12: So I think draft for a position you need. I
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 12: don't know how you feel about that. And then finally, yeah,
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 12: everybody's always trying to get rid of Dak. It's killing me.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 12: It was Cooper Radish nuts. This Milton guy that's the quarterback,
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 12: if he has a decent team around him, are going
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 12: to be excellent. And so yeah, everybody leave Dak alone.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 12: They have a nice backup in Milton now a little
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 12: better than Cooper, perhaps more explosive. But anyways, Derek, I
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 12: want to see what you thought.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, I'm gonna ask you. You said the Cowboys
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: have one playmaker? Who is that?
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 4: It's CD?
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm just gonna remind you about five years ago
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys were in that draft. They did not have
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: the need for him, but they did see the value
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: of him that was falling and said, you know what,
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: let's draft this guy. Yeah, we have a Mari Cooper,
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: we have Michael Gallup, but let's draft this guy.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 12: But that was first round and in the first round.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 12: I get that in the first round you can get
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 12: an all pro like he is, but it's the second, third,
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 12: fourth round, second.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But here, and here's another thing. Though, they got
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: all they got needs at everything. I mean, like they do,
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: they need everything. They need a corn They probably don't
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: need a safety. That's the don't really need a safety.
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: And I think they would be fine with not getting
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: a tight end. I'm not saying you don't, you know
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: if there's a better option, but I'm saying you probably
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: don't need a tight end. You don't need a safety.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: But what every other position? Running back, you know, guards, tackle, receiver,
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: need you know, there's a need there. I'm like, if
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: you got an exciting young wide receiver. That was fun. Yeah,
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: that that that that'd be great, you know, I mean
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: think about like the Xavier Worthy type. He was drafted
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 1: late in the first round. Good exciting player. But but
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: you know Flowers from from the Ravens a few years ago,
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: it is kind of like that, you know, similar to
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: what what Golden could be. But I mean, if it's
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: an offensive lineman, I'd be totally fine with that. I mean,
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: I I just don't understand how honestly, no offense, but
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: I just don't understand how Cowboy fans can't that have
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: been a fans of this team for the last few years,
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 1: ten fifteen years, and look at what happened when they
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: signed or when they drafted Tyron Smith, Travis Frederick, Zach Martin.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: As much as they might have hated that at the time,
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: what great picks that they were and what did that
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 1: do for the offensive line? And it just so happened
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: that Dak was able to step right in as a
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: rookie and play and Zeke was ready to roll as
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: a rookie as well. So I think a solid offensive
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: line like this makes you have a little bit more playmakers.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: But you know, not forget everyone keep talking about the Eagles.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: Eagles have a great offensive line, a great offensive line,
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: which makes a lot of those guys better too. So hey,
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: I'm they can't go wrong. They got too many needs.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: They really can't go wrong here.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 12: But I hope they get explosive though.
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: And that's fine. I get it. You want to do that,
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: hadn't seen it in a while, hadn't drafted that in
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: a while, that would that would be fun. I'm not
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: going to say that it's not, but I just I
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: can't see a pick that I would be like, oh,
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: I hate that. I don't see.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 11: No time anyway.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: But that tight end from Penn State, I mean, he
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: could be really, really dynamic, and I do think tight
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: ends can change your offense if you if they could
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: be a mismatched nightmare. The only thing that would be
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: bad is if they did what the Falcons did last
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: year and drafted like a Michael Pennox just to sit
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: and that's that would be the one thing. If they
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: if they said, you know what we're gonna get, We're
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: gonna get Jackson Dark and that you know he's not
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: gonna help you tomorrow. I don't think so that would
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: be the only thing that I could see where in
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: the first round this doesn't look good. But other than that,
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be fine.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 10: Well.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: Thanks, good hearing from you. All right, let's go to
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: Tamara in Iowa. Tamara, what's up?
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 10: Hey? How are you doing good?
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: How are you doing?
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 17: I'm doing great. I usually get a little more leeway
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 17: than this. So, hey, I just wanted to say, so,
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 17: it's not it's not. Uh. I've never met Rob and
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 17: why I like what he has to say. I'm not
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 17: his ex because all my exes are in Texas and
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 17: I only have one. All right, name is not His
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 17: name is not Rob. Anyhow So in the Romo thing
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 17: last time, I called it in about Romo and I
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 17: got a little mixed up. I thought it happened in Denver.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 17: I think it was actually a Browns game and he
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 17: had stitches on his face. And if you google it
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 17: you can find it anyway. I don't know if it
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 17: was actually confirmed or not. That's part I don't know.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 17: But if you google it, you can find out what
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 17: I was talking about anyhow. And the Denver game, now,
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 17: I gotta say, so, you ever sit next to somebody
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 17: at work and they just hate your team and they hate.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 17: They hate the guy you love the most, which is Romo.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 17: I love him the most, and they just wanted to
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 17: make fun of him every chance they got. And so
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 17: I sat next to a Broncos fan and he loved
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 17: in that Broncos game. I don't know if I know
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 17: he did play with broken ribs at a game. I'm
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 17: not sure if it was that one, but I know
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 17: Romo did play. Well, we don't talk about it because
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 17: you're supposed to support all your injuries and all that,
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 17: but I know that Romo did play with some broken
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 17: injuries that he didn't talk about, and I think it
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 17: might have been that game. But that game was brutal
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 17: to me, and then I lived to Yeah, it's hard
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 17: to sit next to somebody that likes to talk about
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 17: that and he just so anyhow, So I think that's
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 17: how I got that mixed up in my brain. But anyway, so,
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 17: what do you think about what's going on in the
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 17: off season, because I don't know. I'm optimistically kind of
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 17: hopeful I have, what I mean, but what I really
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 17: likes to call hoopium a little bit of that going
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 17: on out of my little basket. It's not much, so
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 17: you know, Yeah, where and I where and I were
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 17: in the ground is still pretty cold over here, so
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 17: we're not putting no flowers till after Mother's Day. That's
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 17: the thing. I don't know what happens down where you
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 17: guys are in Texas where all my exes one you
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 17: guys might be putting powers down there, but we're not. Anyway,
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 17: That's all I had to say. I actually had actually
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 17: had something else that I was holding it so long
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 17: I forgot about what it was. But anyway, I just
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 17: love y'all, and I love what you do, and I'll talk.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: To you later. All right, thank you, have a good day.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: All Right. It's a lot going on there. I'm trying
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: to even trying to say where to process that off
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: season hopefulness. Yeah, I mean, that's that's what happens in
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 1: the off season. I mean, you you get it's like
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: the cycle. You get you get excited again about what
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: what's this? You know what this team can do and
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 1: and you know some of the things that they're done
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: in the offseason to try to you know, fix fix
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: the problems. And there were a lot of problems, and
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: so we just talked about in the last caller. I
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: mean there's there's a lot of uh, there's a lot
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: of needs on this team. So they're gonna get a
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: good player, Like you know, they get top twelve pick.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: They've earned that because they weren't very good last year.
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: And not only that, but you get the forty fourth
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: pick in the second round, which is, you know, pretty
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 1: pretty high in the second round. She'd get another good player.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: She get another player that that should come in and start.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: So you know, that's what this team needs. You got
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: guys coming back from injury. You're getting some some players
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: and free agency that can come in and help. You're
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 1: also getting some some draft picks. So that's that's what
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: it is. You add that together and in new coach
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: and you know, new new staff, and yeah, they should
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: get excited about it. All right, let's go to Ronnie
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: in New Jersey.
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 10: Hey, how are you doing next?
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 8: Good?
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: How are you?
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 10: That's so bad? Pretty good? Thank you? Uh? Nick, I
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 10: don't know. I was just telling Chris, I'm like, I
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 10: don't see why everybody's getting So what's up with a
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 10: deal with wanting an offensive lineman? I mean, whenever we've
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 10: been good, we've had a great offensive line. So I
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 10: don't know where they're getting that they have to have
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 10: a wide receiver or running back. I guess because they're
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 10: seeing all this stuff on ESPN and stuff like that,
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 10: that that's what they're getting predicted to get. But I'll
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 10: be I'll be I'll be happy if we get somebody
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 10: that could open up and help back with the passing
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 10: game and with the running game. So obviously, what anything
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 10: back with that? With that being said, I was wondering,
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 10: like they're taking so long with his negotiations back and
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 10: forth with with Micah. I'm wondering if they are waiting
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 10: for the draft, see maybe hey, you never know, somebody
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 10: might blow their doors off by by giving them a
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 10: great offer. What will you take for for for for
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 10: a great pass rusher, because honestly, he's a great pass rusher.
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 10: He's not that much of a run stopper. If they
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 10: what to offer you three first round picks were two
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 10: first round picks, a second and a third within these
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 10: two years, what do you take that? I mean, I
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 10: think I would What do you think?
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, I got to remember the position that I'm in.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: If I'm if I'm gonna sit there and say yeah,
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: I would do that. I need to see what it is.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: I need to see exactly what it is. So hypothetically
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: trading Micah Parsons, I'm not. I'm not for the hypothetical.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: You can do that, and that's what fans should do.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 1: Me personally, I need to see the numbers. I need
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: to see what it is. What exactly is it going
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: to be. Is it going to change your team? And
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: you can't just say first round picks because Travis Hunter
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: is it going to be a first round pick and
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: Shamar Stewart is going to be a first round pick
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: as well, probably from a andem. I'm just I just
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: looked at our draft magazine here and I'm just, you know,
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: throwing that out there. What what are we talking here?
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 1: High first round, late first round? And I understand when
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: you go down the road, it's you don't know that
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: because that team's gonna get better with Micah Parsons. We
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: know that. So I wouldn't expect a high, high first
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 1: round pick except for the one right there. So if
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: someone's offered me a pick for Michaeh Parsons, the first
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: round pick better be a high pick after that.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 10: That was the That was the other part of the question,
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 10: because I was going to ask you if it would
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 10: have to be. I would consider a team, let's say,
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 10: like Cleveland. I would consider a team that's not gonna
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 10: give me like a pick in the twenties or or
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 10: you know, fifteen, You know what I'm saying. Like, I
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 10: would consider a team that I know is going to
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 10: be bad for the next couple of years. So if
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 10: they're offering me something like that for Mica, I would
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 10: probably take it because I don't think whatever players we
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 10: get this year is going to make considering the division
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 10: and the conference that we're in, I don't see us
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 10: as a playoff team this year. Maybe some maybe something
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 10: will change for next year, but this year, I don't
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 10: see us being a playoff team. So that's why I
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 10: would kind and considered, all right, something like that. Okay,
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 10: thanks running.
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 1: I just I'm just not about trading away Micah. I
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: mean I just when I see him on the field,
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: I see the things that he does and how he
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: can change the game, and just not I'm the goals
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 1: to get great players on your football team. That's what
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: the draft is all about. You want to get these
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: great players. That was one of the best picks the
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: Cowboys have ever had in the history of the franchise
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 1: to get Micah Parsons at where they did. They had
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: the tenth pick, they traded back to the twelfth pick.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: Did they back into it, Yeah, maybe they still got him.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: He was great. He is great, and that's the goal.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 1: And so not to trade him to try to get
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: other great picks and hope that they're is good. I
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: don't know. I'd rather just surround him with other good
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: players and and and I think he'll even be even better.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: So that's why I've just never been a big fan
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: of making that trade. All right, let's last one. Let's
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: go to Rick in Massachusetts.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 5: Rick.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 15: Hey, Hey, Nick, how you doing. I'm all right, just
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 15: I agree with you. You'd rather have four good players
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 15: the one great player. It's easier to go back or
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 15: just draft who you are than it is to go
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 15: up because you lose a lot of draft capital, which
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 15: you need. So and commentson's will saying you know about
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 15: Mark Parsons, you know great that he turned out the
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 15: way he did, But he wasn't listed as being a
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 15: great player, was just listed as being a linebacker. And
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 15: when we kicked him up at twelve because we lost
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 15: the two corners that we wanted, and then from there
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 15: he turned into a great players. So that turned out
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 15: great for us.
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 8: Right, I agree.
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: I agree, he had to kind of luck into it.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: So now I don't know about trading him away. I'm
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: not a fan of the.
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 15: Other things I was saying is that, you know, as
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 15: far as drafting, like me, it would probably be why
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 15: because you don't beck the wide receiver in the first
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 15: or second round, you're gonna it goes down from there
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 15: where running back you got plenty. You could draft third round,
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 15: maybe even to the fifth. If we can pick up
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 15: a fourth, that's even better. But getting a wide receiver,
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 15: running back or later cornerbacks or defensive tackles or something
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 15: like that, you know, picking up a good early whatever,
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 15: that's good too. But that's the way I did. I
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 15: like to Milton trade myself too.
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: All right, well, good, thanks thanks for the call. Rick.
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 1: You know one one thing I'll say, and I've said
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 1: this stat before and I'll mention it again. You know
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: you said that if you go a little further a
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: wide receiver this you know, the stats you'll go down
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: as far as how good of a player you're gonna get.
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 1: That that's the same with any position. The same with
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: running back. I mean, there's a notion out there that
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: you can draft the running back at any round and
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: you'd be fine. But I went back and looked at
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: these stats. I mean that the stats don't say that.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, going back before the pandemic, that's like six
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 1: years of Pro Bowl selections, thirty four of your last
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: forty Pro Bowl selections have been first or second round
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: running backs. So and then there's a couple in the
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 1: third round. That's usually I think that's just Alvin Kamara.
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: There's been just four players. Four players in the last
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: six years that have made it to the Pro Bowl
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: were drafted fourth round or beyond. One of them was
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys Tony Poler moster it's in there, and then
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 1: Kyron Williams from the Rams a couple times in the
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: fifth round. That's it. Most of these are first and
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 1: second rounders, and then just a couple in the third round.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: So history kind of shows that now you can get
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: one thousand yard rushier and Rico Daddle, but you want
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 1: to get a game changing Pro Bowl type player that's
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 1: first or second round. That's a running back, and that's
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 1: probably at a lot of positions as well. Great show
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: Guys fifteen calls a lot of fun. Well, we'll do
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: it again next week as well. So for Chris Beam,
• 1:20:00
