  Speaker 5: The stock is high.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: Let's get it.
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: That's right, all right, So two quick shout outs shout
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: out to Dan and Philly. I've think I've been thinking
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: about Dan ever since the Eagles won the Super Bowl,
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: and I'm like, man, we're all feeling it, the just
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: nausea of seeing all that. But my man's in the trenches.
• 2:20
  Speaker 5: So if we can get a thumbs up emoji on
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: the text line true smiley face a white flag of surrender.
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: I don't know what we need to hear, but I
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: just need to hear something from Dan and Philly. We've
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: been thinking about your buddy. That's shout out. I've been
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: waiting three weeks to call in.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: And say that.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now, that's true shout out to Dan. He hasn't.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he's texted a lot. To be honest,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: I don't know if we check the text as much
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: as we need to. I don't know. Again, I'm not
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: calling Chris out. Or don't know. If we look at
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the text messages as much anymore, he might be sitting
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: them as much as normal. I don't even know. I
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: don't know.
• 2:57
  Speaker 8: But yeah, lines are hot.
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: I mean, I get it, Yeah, I get it.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, it's probably punching air right now. And you're
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: living in Philly. We have a few callers to Mark
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: and Philly is another one that Yeah, so yeah, those
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: are brave. Any cowboy fan in Philly is i't I
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: already give them, uh, you know, a lot of props
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: just just for that, just for being in that.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: That's right, man, that's right. So shout out to everybody.
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: We're still dealing with the aftermath of that. Yeah, and
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: then second, shout out Zach Martin. You know, he's He's
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: what she wanted in a in a professional player.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: I think twenty fourteen was probably the first draft I
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: really paid attention to, and that was the season I
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: went to my first game. I went to the Saints
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: game and the game against the Colts where we clinched
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: the division. So twenty fourteen was a really special year,
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: I think for all of us, but for me to
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: just follow in the draft and everything, you know, are
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: they going to take, Man's what's going to happen. They
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: went with Zach Martin, which I mean, you can look back,
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: it's probably our best pick in the past fifteen years easily,
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: and then one of the best in the franchise. So
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: shout out to Zach. I hope he heals well. And yeah,
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: where each other's namestake Zack in Atlanta, Zach.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: The shout out to the h No, I'm ach, I'm
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: A h H.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Didn't know.
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, cool anyway, But that's a man shout out to
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: Zach Martin. He's amazing.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: So all right, I appreciate the call.
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: I'll get off the line, man, thank you, thank you.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Good stuff today. You know, Zach Martin. Of course we
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: should have a Zach called first today. I don't know
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: if that was it was definitely by a coincidence, but
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: but certainly fitting Zach and Martin. You know, probably the
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: greatest player that I can that I've covered from start
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: to finish. Him and Jason Witten right there. And but
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: but as far as guys that I've got, because I
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: was there a little bit there towards the end of
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Darren Woodson and Larry Allen. But but Zach Martin and
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: I remember the pick, and I and I was I
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: was just excited that it wasn't Johnny manziel I. I
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I'll be honest, I never thought that he would be
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: a great pro. I thought it would be a show,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: to say the least, or some kind of show and
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: with and I'm never I'm never okay drafting quarterbacks in
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the first round when you have one, I just I
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: just feel like there's other positions why don't you help
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: the guy instead of let him look over his shoulders.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: So I didn't like that, And that's exactly what they did.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: They drafted Zach Martin to help uh Tony Romo, help
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: that running game, solidify what they had there and and
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: and they ended up drafting one of the best, you know,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: offensive linemen in the history of the NFL. I think
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: he'll be a I think he'll be a Hall of Famer.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't predict anymore of who's the
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: first ballot guy or not. I don't know if they
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: even do that anymore. I think you have to be
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Tom Brady to get that. I don't know, but I
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: know he's gonna be there one day, and he'll be
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: in the Ring of Honor, probably sooner than later. He's
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: just outstanding. Gonna miss him. And I owe my handshake
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: because everyone was shaking his hand after the season, going
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: all right, it's good, you know, good covering you. And
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: he didn't say he was retiring. He just was like
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: shaking hands. So he went to shake my hand and
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: I was like, well, well, hold on, I mean, what
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: are we doing here? Why don't we wait? Why don't
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: we wait? Make a decision. Now that he's made a decision,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: I better go shake his hand, all right, Champ in Nebraska, Champ,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: what's up?
• 6:45
  Speaker 7: Hey, Nick?
• 6:45
  Speaker 9: How you doing?
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: I'm great? How are you?
• 6:48
  Speaker 7: That's awesome?
• 6:49
  Speaker 9: Man, I'm good.
• 6:49
  Speaker 7: I'm good. It's Monday morning. I feel good. Good week.
• 6:53
  Speaker 7: Long time no talk.
• 6:54
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I missed you, I miss you.
• 6:56
  Speaker 10: Miss to you guys and Chris. I can't forget Chris, definitely.
• 6:59
  Speaker 10: Don Hey, it's been so long since I've called in
• 7:02
  Speaker 10: that I've got so much to catch up on. But
• 7:05
  Speaker 10: quick Rundown. Upset about the coach hire, I'm over it.
• 7:10
  Speaker 10: I'm excited for.
• 7:11
  Speaker 7: The staff he's put together. I'm looking forward to what
• 7:15
  Speaker 7: these guys can do. Woody got robbed again. That's horrible.
• 7:21
  Speaker 7: I was going to tell you I haven't played high
• 7:23
  Speaker 7: school football since nineteen ninety two, ninety three, and my
• 7:28
  Speaker 7: number was seventy in high school. So I was always
• 7:31
  Speaker 7: a big Zach Martin fan because of the number. That
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: number carries the rest of your life. I still use
• 7:37
  Speaker 7: it to this day. And when you shake his hand,
• 7:41
  Speaker 7: shake it one more time from all the fans, all
• 7:44
  Speaker 7: the other guys that wore seventy. That man, we appreciated
• 7:48
  Speaker 7: what he did, and I hated that he didn't get
• 7:50
  Speaker 7: a Super Bowl. So up to current stuff. I heard
• 7:54
  Speaker 7: this morning that apparently talks have started, maybe negotiations with OSA.
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: I'm wondering what you're.
• 8:01
  Speaker 7: Thinking about that. I myself, if the price was minimally okay,
• 8:08
  Speaker 7: I'm great with it. But man, we can't spend so
• 8:12
  Speaker 7: much money on a guy that's really really good.
• 8:16
  Speaker 9: But he's not.
• 8:18
  Speaker 7: I know somebody that that you could set the market with,
• 8:21
  Speaker 7: not that he's set the market, but for us. So also,
• 8:27
  Speaker 7: real quick, I know you're headed out to the combine.
• 8:30
  Speaker 7: What are you looking for out there?
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 8:32
  Speaker 7: And if you have any stories about past combines, yeah,
• 8:36
  Speaker 7: I'd love to hear them.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Okay, thanks, thanks for the call. Yeah, you know the
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: OSA part that that one is tricky. I think everybody
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: wants him. I said it last week. I think Matt
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Matt Everflu said to a couple of us that how
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: much he just really really likes his game and just
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: thinks he can be a star. He he hasn't been.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, let's just let's just call it what it is.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, great guy and a really good player, but
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: he hasn't been a difference maker star. It's been four years.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying he can't be. I'm not saying he
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: can't develop into that, but but it's risky. You know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: they paid Dak, they paid c D, they paid Digs,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: they paid Micah. They will pay Micah. I think I
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: think they will whenever they do. Yeah, I got ahead
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: of myself there, but and I'm not preaking news or anything.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just thinking of the guys that have
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: been stars like they already are before the contract, Pro Bowl,
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: all pro setting records, all that. And I get it
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: that Osa plays a position where stats aren't you know,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: aren't as easy to collect. But I just think that
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: that that's a hope. That would be a hope signing,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: and there'd be a lot of money to do that.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: So risky. I you know, he champ. You say, if
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: the money was right, and if you know, what is
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: that number? You know what what what's that number? Because
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: I think if I'm Osa and I'm Mosa's agent, I
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: go into free agency, you know I have a number
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: and I say, all right, kind of like what Dak
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: did say, all right, it's twenty million a year. I
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: know that sounds a lot. But that's probably what it
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: would be. If you want to sign me now and
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: I and skip free agency, it's probably going to be
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: twenty million a year or maybe more than that. And
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I just think that's a little rich for what he's done,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: what he hasn't done. And that's no slide on him.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: It's just it's that's tough, tough business move right there.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: But then again, the Cowboys, you don't sign him, who
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: do you have at defensive tackle?
• 10:47
  Speaker 7: Now?
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: You go into the draft and you you know, you
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: probably sign a free agent or two, but but you
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: have to probably go get one pretty high so that
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: it paints you into a corner as well. So it's
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: a tough situation there. It's the one with with so
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: combine stories. I'll say this my very first combine I
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: was kind of I ended up working with the scouts,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: our own scouting department. Brian brought us. And that was
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: back in the day when you walked around and you
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: got players to go and meet with the Cowboys and
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: you or meet with your team. It wasn't scheduled to
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: just go and you say, hey, Cowboys want to meet
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: with you. So here I am recruiting for the Cowboys.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: It's the two thousand draft and I'm trying to get
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Michael Vick. Michael Vick, but the Chargers and I think
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: their former GM, John Butler, his name was John Butler,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: he was trying to get him as well. They had
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: the number one pick. They ended up trade him to Atlanta,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: but he wanted to talk to him and said, we're
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: going to talk to him first and then y'all can
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: get him. Like, okay, we Cowboys didn't have a pick
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: in the first round, hit the thirty seventh overall pick.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: Still wanted to talk to Michael Vick. Didn't work out
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: right then, but I do remember walking around grabbing players
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: and get Leonard Davis in the door. Leonard Davis the
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: biggest human being I think I've ever seen. At that time.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: They didn't draft him obviously he went number two overall,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: but it ended up getting them later on they did.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: And that's kind of why you do those interviews even
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: if you don't have a high pick. Let's say the
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Cowboys want to talk to Travis Hunter. It's probably not
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: gonna make it at twelve, but you know who knows
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: four years down the road. Three years down the road,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: there's a trade or whatever you do your your homework
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: on these top players. I remember there was a draft
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: in two thousand and five maybe where you know the
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Cowboys got three or four of those top picks. Not
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: only you know Marcus Spears, Uh, you know, they got
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: DeMarcus Ware ended up with pac Man Jones. I feel
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: like there was a couple of others in that in
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: that same draft, but they got a lot of guys there,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: and so that's why, that's why you do these interviews
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: so you can, you know, get them not only for
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: this year, but down the road. All right, let's see,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: do we have another Davian in Illinois? That next Davion?
• 12:54
  Speaker 9: Yeah? What's going on? What to do? Buddy?
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: How you doing.
• 12:58
  Speaker 9: Good Man's diet?
• 13:00
  Speaker 7: Not work?
• 13:00
  Speaker 9: As you know? I heard you had a special show today,
• 13:04
  Speaker 9: so I had to get on in so we can
• 13:05
  Speaker 9: get it in for the for the week for sure?
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: For sure, what's on your mind?
• 13:12
  Speaker 11: Well?
• 13:12
  Speaker 9: I heard a little rumor. I don't know if it's
• 13:14
  Speaker 9: true or not, but yeah, y'all will probably know Jared's
• 13:18
  Speaker 9: not gonna speak of the scouting conbind is that for sure?
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't I wouldn't expect that. I don't know, I
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: haven't heard that yet. I haven't heard that officially. If
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: he's not going to talk.
• 13:34
  Speaker 9: Okay, because I was going to say, that's that's an
• 13:35
  Speaker 9: interesting development. I know, we didn't get him at a
• 13:38
  Speaker 9: singer Yeah, the Senior Singer Bowl, So I was, I
• 13:42
  Speaker 9: guess he's just don't if he If it is, he
• 13:44
  Speaker 9: is kind of being very quiet off season.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Well the Senior Bowl. The Senior Bowl was like a
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: day or two after the Shottenheimer news, and he you know,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: he did talk a lot obviously there, and so I
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: don't know if he you know, it wasn't it wasn't
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: as as pressing then as it was it would be now.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: So I'll be surprised if that, if that happens.
• 14:08
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean I kind of was looking forward to
• 14:09
  Speaker 9: I'm talking about it. I mean either way, I'm good
• 14:11
  Speaker 9: either way. I think we uh if him not talking
• 14:15
  Speaker 9: would make uh make it interesting that we're gonna really
• 14:18
  Speaker 9: try to go on focus then get some free agents
• 14:19
  Speaker 9: in here. Because I heard you talking about Osa and
• 14:22
  Speaker 9: uh we had a little empty debate on our our
• 14:24
  Speaker 9: Twitter space last week about OSA and then about the
• 14:28
  Speaker 9: draft pick. And I was, I mean, I'm not I'm
• 14:30
  Speaker 9: not trying to sign Osa either. I'm trying to either
• 14:32
  Speaker 9: go find me Milton Williams or give me something two
• 14:36
  Speaker 9: for one. I just, I mean, I think Olsa is
• 14:38
  Speaker 9: a good player, but it just for twenty million. I
• 14:41
  Speaker 9: just the second country has been killing the Cowboys, and
• 14:43
  Speaker 9: I just I hate to do another second contract and
• 14:46
  Speaker 9: just got a little to what we think he's gonna
• 14:48
  Speaker 9: want want him to be. And I just I right,
• 14:50
  Speaker 9: go get somebody, get some linebacker up or something with
• 14:53
  Speaker 9: that money. Yeah, my uh, I'd like uh. But I
• 14:59
  Speaker 9: was trying to argue with Dylan because well now we
• 15:03
  Speaker 9: just have to help the debate about about the twelve pick.
• 15:06
  Speaker 9: I mean with him and another guy was really tripping,
• 15:08
  Speaker 9: and we really wanted to try to beef up the
• 15:10
  Speaker 9: offensive line. And my thing is, give me a play
• 15:14
  Speaker 9: make for deck. I won't I want to wire receiver
• 15:16
  Speaker 9: or running back. The one is there. If one of
• 15:20
  Speaker 9: the ones that we I would love to have it there.
• 15:22
  Speaker 9: Don't even don't even trade away. Go get your gas.
• 15:25
  Speaker 9: But like I said, time with Tail and we'll see.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well you know, I'm I'm I'm kind of I
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: feel like I would be fine with the offensive lineman
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: if it's a guy ready to play right now, and
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: you don't draft him twelfth overall he's not. So yeah,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: that would be my thought there is that I'd be
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: fine with the offensive lineman. I get your your take
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: on the playmaker, but you know, think of it like
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: this offensive lineman. Let's say a guard, the guard, you know,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: tackle it moves to guard or in and or running back.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Would you rather have the running back at twelve, the
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: guard at forty four, or the guard at forty four?
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: I mean guard at twelve in the running back at
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: forty four, I mean.
• 16:10
  Speaker 9: Running back at twelve, guard at a forty four.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: And I think a lot of people honestly would flip that,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: and I think I would too. Now, I'm not one.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Now I've I did some research and I've shared it
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: on here. I'm not one that wants to go way,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: way deep into the draft just to get a running back.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Because history has shown recent history has shown that you're
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: the guys are making the Pro Bowler in the first
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: and second round at running back. It's not just go
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: plug in a fifth round or whatever. I think. In
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: the last forty forty Pro bowlers, thirty five of them
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: have been first or second round picks, and so you know,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: got a couple third rounders, a fourth. One of those
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: fourth was Tony Pollard. One undrafted, a couple of fifths,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: but for the most part it's first and second round.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: So I'm not I don't I don't want to go
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: too far down from that. But you know, I think
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: if you get enough a guard in the first round
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: at twelfth overall tackle that moves to guard, he's going
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: to be a plug and play cornerstone for you. At
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: least that's what you expect, what you hope for. There's
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: no guarantees on anything. Really, when you get past that,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: there's no guarantees of anything. We've seen top ten picks
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: that just don't play like you expect. I mean, well,
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Claiborne comes to mind, sixth overall pick just wasn't wasn't
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: as good of a player as they thought he would be.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Dylan in Northport, Florida, say next,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: that's going. How are you?
• 17:41
  Speaker 12: I'm all right?
• 17:41
  Speaker 8: I heard Davian talking about me, so I had a
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: callity yeah.
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: He was over here saying y'all had a healthy debate
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: healthy Yeah.
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: Yeah, there's a little asterisk next to my pick at
• 17:52
  Speaker 8: twelve for offensive line, and I mean, I'm fine with it.
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: I think I talked called in and talked about it before.
• 17:56
  Speaker 8: It's like the offensive line, that's the the group on
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: the team, and same thing for the defensive line. The
• 18:03
  Speaker 8: trenches elevate the floor of the entire that side of
• 18:06
  Speaker 8: the ball, whereas like a skill position player doesn't necessarily
• 18:10
  Speaker 8: help elevate the offensive line, if you know what I mean.
• 18:13
  Speaker 8: And so this team needs helping offensive line. However, this draft,
• 18:18
  Speaker 8: I think if they're going to take an offensive lineman,
• 18:20
  Speaker 8: they can probably trade back into the late teams and
• 18:23
  Speaker 8: do so. There's not a lot of great offensive linemen,
• 18:26
  Speaker 8: and from what I'm seeing, the offensive lineman and a
• 18:29
  Speaker 8: lot of these mocks are kind of slipping back. We'll
• 18:32
  Speaker 8: see once the combine happens and this gets a little
• 18:34
  Speaker 8: more serious as far as the mox and all that go.
• 18:38
  Speaker 8: But I'm okay taking skill position, I'm okay taking offensive line.
• 18:42
  Speaker 8: I mean, there's so many needs and I think the
• 18:46
  Speaker 8: Cowboys now I think about the running backs in this draft,
• 18:48
  Speaker 8: and the offensive line is if you do wait to
• 18:50
  Speaker 8: take an offensive lineman, there's like a steep drop off
• 18:53
  Speaker 8: between for a second and third round, whereas running back
• 18:56
  Speaker 8: in this draft specifically, it seems like you can take
• 18:58
  Speaker 8: guys in the third or fourth round who would typically
• 19:00
  Speaker 8: be going in a second or third round. So the
• 19:03
  Speaker 8: drop off isn't as serious at running back as is
• 19:06
  Speaker 8: offensive line. So that's something to consider as well. But
• 19:09
  Speaker 8: I mean, I'm open for basically everything, unless there's like
• 19:11
  Speaker 8: a curve ball that comes in and like some random
• 19:13
  Speaker 8: guys taking at twelve, Like we have so many needs.
• 19:15
  Speaker 8: Give me offensive line, receiver, running back, I mean, whatever, edge, defender,
• 19:18
  Speaker 8: defensive line. There's about ten positions I'm okay with.
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 19:23
  Speaker 12: Corner, Yeah, yeah, corner exactly.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: That's a sneaky big need as well. You know, I'm
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: with you. I just feel like drafting running back second,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: third or fourth round you get later on in that.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: I really hope that you'll say, say if you told me, well,
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: they don't have a fourth round pick right now, but
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: if you said that they drafted a third round running back,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: I would say, man, I hope they drafted an offensive
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: lineman in the first round, you know, And and I'll
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: tell a story off of that here in the second one.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: Are you done with you any more points?
• 19:58
  Speaker 12: Yeah, just my my preferred scenario. Man, if we're going
• 20:01
  Speaker 12: to go that route and take it off into the
• 20:02
  Speaker 12: line and then trade back pick up a third or
• 20:04
  Speaker 12: a fourth round pick, and then that the gates kind
• 20:06
  Speaker 12: of that not having that fourth round pick, and you
• 20:08
  Speaker 12: can get your offensive lineman and running back. So it'll
• 20:11
  Speaker 12: be interesting to see what happens. But looking forward to
• 20:13
  Speaker 12: hear your story.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, thanks Dylan, And you know that I'm
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: torn a little bit on the trade back scenario. Yeah,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: I definitely. You know, everybody wants more picks and they
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: have so many needs. So if you told me they
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: went from twelve to sixteen to seventeen or whatever, you know,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with that because I still think you're going
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: to get a player that's going to come in and
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: help you because you do have so many needs. But
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: you know, we'll kay get drafting pretty high too, stay
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: stay where you're at and and you know, and get
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: that quality of a player. So we'll just see how
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: it goes. There's a lot to happen between now and then,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: and that's why free agency happens before that because you
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: want to kind of see just how big are these
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: needs and how pressing they are. What I'll say to
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: the story is I remember hearing this back from it
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: was twenty eleven when the Cowboys were drafting. And I'm
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: sure I've told this before, but when the Cowboys were
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: drafting in the third round, they wanted a running back
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: and DeMarco Murray was on the table and that was
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: their highest rated pick of running back. But they started,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: you know, they started contemplating some other guys, and Stephen
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: Ridley from LSU was now in the mix, and so
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: now they were just about to be on the clock.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: They were calling other coaches and other people and frustrating
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: some of the scouts that had done such hard work
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: and we're so excited about DeMarco Murray and now all
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, they're like, what about this guy? And
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: so Chris Hall was a scout, has been longtime scout
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: there and he was all on the table for DeMarco Murray,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: and Jason Garrett was like, I don't know, maybe this guy.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: And they're like, what are we doing? And then so
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Garrett says to the scouts, all right, fourth and one,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: we're playing in the Meadowlands, last game of the season,
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: or first It was actually the first game of the
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: season in the Meadowlands fourth and one, do we go
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: and score a touchdown? We give this you know, if
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: we give the ball to him, does he score? And
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: they say, hey, you run behind that big number seventy
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: seven Tyron Smith that we just drafted. He'll score every day.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Well that was it. They turned in. That's all they needed.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: They turned in the car and they did that. I
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: say that to say, you're gonna give me a third
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: round running back. I really hope you got a first round,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: first or second round offensive lineman there, because you get
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: those big linemen. I think they make everybody better. All right,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: let's go to a text line question. I called out
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: the text line, and now we got some. This is
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Mike the He's from Philly, fan of forty four years,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: Longhorn Grad, Dallas resident, got a bit before moving back,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: moving back to Philly. All right, His question is why
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: are we not hearing more about the stout defensive tackles
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: here a lot about number two receivers. Top running backs
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: can't stop the run. We haven't been for decades. Look
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: at the teams that are in the final four. They've
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: stopped the run. They have big guys up front. What
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: are you hearing about there addressing that need Mazi is
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: a bust? Osa too small? Thank you, Mike. I don't
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: know if Osa is too small. But if you want
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: to say to dominate, to warrant a twenty million a
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: year contract or whatever that's going to be, maybe, I mean,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: he hasn't proven that yet. He hasn't proven to be
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: a dominant player. Now. He was really good last year
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: and I thought I thought he was close or at
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: least he had an argument for making the Pro Bowl.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: I thought he was that good that, you know, especially
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: later in the season. He was really kind of figured
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: it out a little bit. So I think that if
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: they did resign him, it would be to build off
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: of that. I don't want to call anybody a bust
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: yet in their first two years, but it hasn't been
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: hasn't lived up, Mazzi hasn't lived up his first round pick,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: hasn't lived up to it at all. So, uh, you know,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: they've got to figure that out. And Eberflus talked highly
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: of him. It wasn't just highly of of of Osa,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: it was it was a Masi as well. And this
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: is kind off the record stuff a little bit. He
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: wasn't really being quoted. He was just saying, you don't watch,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: you just watch, you know. And and all coaches have that,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: All coaches have an ego about them, all the good ones,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: you know, of saying, all right, I see he you know,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: he hasn't performed well here, but bring them to me,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: let me get my hands on him a little bit.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: And and that's, you know, that's what all the good
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: coaches do and say, so that you would expect that.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: So we'll we'll see. But but why is it a
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: bigger need? And I don't know, it could be and
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: it should be. You're gonna be okay if they draft
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: a guy from Michigan. Twelfth overall defensive defensive player from
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Michigan could happen. They got some really good defensive players, corners,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: defensive tackles. Apparently a guy Graham. I don't know if
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: he'll last that long, but but he's he's one of
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: the top players. And yeah, there'll be a lot of
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Mazi Taco talks. But you know, a different scheme, different
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: different era, different defen maybe a different player as well,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: at least you would hope. So all right, let's go
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: to Irene Falls Church Virginia Irene.
• 25:09
  Speaker 13: Hey, good morning, how you doing.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: How are you doing doing well?
• 25:13
  Speaker 14: Doing well?
• 25:15
  Speaker 13: Put me sign me up for Mason Graham falling to
• 25:17
  Speaker 13: twelve and taking him. I would be on board with
• 25:19
  Speaker 13: that for sure.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 25:21
  Speaker 13: Don't scout the helmet. That's what Brent brought us says,
• 25:23
  Speaker 13: so I get it. We've had some mishaps there, but
• 25:27
  Speaker 13: he's special. Yeah, although I want to manifest Abdul carters twelve,
• 25:31
  Speaker 13: but that's there's no way that's happening. So anyway, what
• 25:35
  Speaker 13: I wanted to call about, so the new coaches. I
• 25:39
  Speaker 13: know I haven't been there too long, but there's been
• 25:42
  Speaker 13: you know, some soundbites and quotes. It seems like everybody's
• 25:45
  Speaker 13: getting on board with the let's get physical. Uh thing
• 25:49
  Speaker 13: sounds inappropriate.
• 25:50
  Speaker 7: You know what I mean?
• 25:51
  Speaker 13: Anyway, But I was wondering with your interactions, like not
• 25:57
  Speaker 13: necessarily like super secret off the record stuff, but just
• 26:00
  Speaker 13: kind of what you've observed of them, even if it's
• 26:03
  Speaker 13: like at the training table or you know, how they
• 26:06
  Speaker 13: handle actor pressers. Is there any kid that you can
• 26:09
  Speaker 13: share about any of them? And who's your favorite so far?
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: Favorite coach?
• 26:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: Oh, hey know I haven't talked to him that much.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: They were I liked. I liked what I heard from
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: from all of them really, but but but Clayton Adams
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: was that that was that was impressive. Just just the
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: way he said the word violence. I don't know why
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: about that, that just the way he said. You know,
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: he was just being really respectable, and he was just like,
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: but we want to you know, good tough, physical, violent
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: football players. And it just stood out and I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: that give me some of that for sure. Uh, all
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: of them though, you know Connor Connor Riley, I mean,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: really really good guy, and and and Derek Foster. I'm
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: excited for him, you know, great opportunity for him to
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: be the running backs coach, shimco the quarterbacks coach, about
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: the biggest quarterbacks coach you're going to see. But you know,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: just they're all saying the right things, and I get it.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: It's that time of year. Everyone's just it's a proof
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: of the pudding type thing. And so we'll see, we'll
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: see what happens. But as it stands right now, uh,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: you know, there's they said the right things. We'll see,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: we'll see what they do when they get some players
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of these guys don't even know who their
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: guys are going to be. Like Derek Foster do know
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: who his running backs are? He just he just knows
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: what the schemes is going to be.
• 27:34
  Speaker 15: That's true.
• 27:34
  Speaker 13: We'll follow up on that. So they can't really talk
• 27:38
  Speaker 13: to the players right now, right No, not not really no,
• 27:42
  Speaker 13: not officially, like they can't be game planning or anything.
• 27:44
  Speaker 13: But they could maybe touch them.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: Very welcome, Yeah exactly.
• 27:48
  Speaker 13: Yeah, okay, okay, so we don't know that much quite
• 27:51
  Speaker 13: yet and that but hey, if he's saying violent, Babie
• 27:54
  Speaker 13: would should like that with dirting people, so exactly. That
• 27:57
  Speaker 13: might be cool to see that development. How that blossom? Okay,
• 28:01
  Speaker 13: well ask my question. Hope you have a good rush
• 28:03
  Speaker 13: to day.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Thank you appreciate Irene. Appreciate you guys calling in and
• 28:07

  Speaker 14: I'm doing good. Yeah, you know, this is the slow
• 28:31
  Speaker 14: time of the year.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah for what for what?
• 28:34
  Speaker 10: Well?
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: You being a sports fan or I mean out in Vegas.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: If there's not a slow it's not ever slow.
• 28:39
  Speaker 7: Is it.
• 28:40
  Speaker 14: No? I mean you're you know, luckily we got hockey
• 28:43
  Speaker 14: and I'm a big Golden Knights fan and there in
• 28:45
  Speaker 14: first place. Always have something going on UFC. Yeah, but
• 28:51
  Speaker 14: football wise, to me, this is the dead time until
• 28:54
  Speaker 14: free agency, right, and free agency is what bill championship
• 29:00
  Speaker 14: teams now. The draft is just supplementing. It's all about
• 29:05
  Speaker 14: free agency. And that's honestly how I'm looking at this team.
• 29:08
  Speaker 14: You know, the coaching staff to me, you know how
• 29:12
  Speaker 14: I feel about that. I want the different coaches, but
• 29:14
  Speaker 14: in all honesty, players make coaches. Coaches don't make players.
• 29:19
  Speaker 14: Coaches could build on great players, but they can't take
• 29:24
  Speaker 14: bad players and make them great. It just doesn't work.
• 29:28
  Speaker 14: I need this team to do something in free agency.
• 29:31
  Speaker 14: I find it shocking that they're in supposedly talks with OSA,
• 29:37
  Speaker 14: but they're not in talks with Micah. It's like they
• 29:39
  Speaker 14: love to have talked. They have to pay good players
• 29:43
  Speaker 14: great money, but they have a problem paying great players
• 29:47
  Speaker 14: great money and I don't understand. The first guy they
• 29:50
  Speaker 14: should be on the phone with is Micah. He said
• 29:53
  Speaker 14: he's open to taking less. Well, let's test the theory.
• 29:57
  Speaker 14: I mean, I don't know. If you're not sold on them,
• 30:00
  Speaker 14: move on.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Are you sure that that's that's what's happening. Are you
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: sure that they're not talking to Micah?
• 30:04
  Speaker 9: No?
• 30:05
  Speaker 14: I mean, of course not. But but everything leaks out
• 30:07
  Speaker 14: of Dallas. I know what Jerry Jones had for breakfast?
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, what what did he have? You probably you
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: only know that kind of hard knocks. You only know
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: that hard.
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: But it's true.
• 30:19
  Speaker 14: But what I'm saying is, I mean it leaked out.
• 30:22
  Speaker 14: I saw today their contract talks. We have a conversation with.
• 30:27
  Speaker 14: If they were talking to Michael, we would hear about it.
• 30:30
  Speaker 14: You know, Michael probably would tell us probably, you know,
• 30:34
  Speaker 14: so I don't know, go ahead, I'm saying.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: No, I mean I I would understand that if that
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: that was the frustration. If that's if we know that
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: for sure, I think the Cowboys look at it like,
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: you know, this is the window here. Micah is not
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: going anywhere as far as leaving the team. Now, it
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: is going to be important if you're going to be
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: active at all a free agency. I do think that
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: that they need to maybe get something done with Micah
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: for sure exactly. And yeah, that's what you're saying. And
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: I get that.
• 31:03
  Speaker 14: Yeah, but if they don't build a free agency, they're
• 31:06
  Speaker 14: going nowhere. I agree with davey on don't throw money
• 31:11
  Speaker 14: at ok So go throw money at Milton Williams. That
• 31:16
  Speaker 14: guy's that guy is the guy you kind of need,
• 31:18
  Speaker 14: you need, you need to spend it. If they're if
• 31:20
  Speaker 14: they're gonna be you know, bargain hunting again, we're gonna
• 31:24
  Speaker 14: be right back where we started. Uh, you know, seven
• 31:27
  Speaker 14: win teams you can't you can't do you kick and
• 31:30
  Speaker 14: you know what Philly's gonna do. They're gonna do something crazy.
• 31:34
  Speaker 14: Probably go get Miles Garrett. They're not gonna sit around.
• 31:38
  Speaker 14: So I want to put you know, Jerry better put
• 31:41
  Speaker 14: his money where his mouth is. And Steven, you know
• 31:44
  Speaker 14: now they're coming. You know last year they said we're
• 31:46
  Speaker 14: not gonna really do nothing, and out this year saying
• 31:48
  Speaker 14: oh we're gonna be active. Well let's see, but you
• 31:51
  Speaker 14: gotta get like you said, you gotta get Mike ha
• 31:53
  Speaker 14: done first before a free agency. I don't know I'm
• 31:56
  Speaker 14: not even showing free agency starts. I think it's like
• 31:58
  Speaker 14: two weeks.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Mark, Yeah, seventeen something like that. Yeah, so let's go, okay,
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: all right, I'm with you. I mean, I'm I'm with
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: you on that. On the Mica front, Rob, anything else
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: you could.
• 32:12
  Speaker 14: I I you know, the draft is like I like
• 32:17
  Speaker 14: the idea of gen d I like an idea of
• 32:20
  Speaker 14: a playmaker, like I said, or you know, in the past,
• 32:25
  Speaker 14: I don't like, you know, I think you got too much.
• 32:28
  Speaker 14: You've got a lot of young guys on the offense
• 32:29
  Speaker 14: and line. Go bring in some grown men to fill
• 32:32
  Speaker 14: in guard, maybe Will Harnander somebody, yeah, you know, and
• 32:36
  Speaker 14: go get me a playmaker on outfense, especially a running back,
• 32:39
  Speaker 14: especially from hearing what these coaches. I don't know much
• 32:42
  Speaker 14: about these assistants, but they like to run the ball. Well,
• 32:44
  Speaker 14: then go get a running back. Yeah, you know. And
• 32:47
  Speaker 14: Jet seems like he's going to be cheaper than trying
• 32:51
  Speaker 14: to sign Rico down.
• 32:53
  Speaker 7: That's a no brainer.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: Ye go get them cheaper in five years of it, Yeah, Rob,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: great stuff. Appreciate you calling in on a Monday and
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: switching up the schedule with US. I I don't think
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys. We know the Cowboys don't agree with with that,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: with that with your point of it's all about free
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: agency and the draft just supplements. They they don't think
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: that way. And I'll be honest, I don't know if
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: many teams still think like that now. Is it eighty
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: twenty No, probably shouldn't be. That's kind of the way
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: it's been around here. It's almost been ninety ten as
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: far as the focus of getting draft, draft, draft, draft,
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: and then we'll kind of fill in here. That works
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: when you're drafting really well, when you're drafting late in
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: the first round, you're getting to Byron Jones and he's
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl type guy, and you're drafting you know,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: you know Tyler Smith and he's you know, he's doing well,
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: and Trayvon Diggs in the second round, and you know,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Jake Ferguson and makes Pro Bowls all that stuff. But
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: then when it starts to taper off, which has the
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: last few years, then I don't know if you can
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: just lean on that. You can't because and that's what happens.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: That's why you go get free agency. If you're drafting
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: really well, you don't need free agency as much. Do
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: you haven't drafted as well the last three years, and
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: now I think it's more of a neat Resigning your
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: own players off of seven and ten teams not gonna
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: help you as much once you get some other guys
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: in there, and you're gonna have to pay for it.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: But that's that's where you are. So anyways, let's go

• 37:03
  Speaker 1: what's up man?
• 37:05
  Speaker 6: Hey, good morning, Nick, Good morning.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: How are you?
• 37:09
  Speaker 6: I'm doing well?
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 37:10
  Speaker 6: First of all, I want to say, Zach Martin, thank
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: you for your years of service. He was truly, truly
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: a professional. And I'm very glad because I was very
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: nervous when they were talking about getting Manzill. I was like, oh,
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: my goodness, yes, this guy. But anyway, you.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Know, I think I think most of the time, if
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: you draft a lineman in the first round or you
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: know what, fourteenth, sixteenth overall, can't remember, but I think
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: it was sixteenth in the in twenty fourteen. But but
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: you know, you draft him like that, you'd be like,
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: you know, first round or kind of a boring pick.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: But so many people just did not want Johnny Manziel
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: that it was like, all right, at least at least
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: it's not that, And it turned out to be a
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: great pick, one of the best of all time.
• 37:59
  Speaker 6: And that's exactly how I felt. I was like, oh, well,
• 38:01
  Speaker 6: I'm boring, but at least it's not man Zill r right,
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: And and I hear a new coaches and saying something
• 38:08
  Speaker 6: about we're going to be a little bit more aggressive
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: slash violence, and uh so I'm kind of looking forward
• 38:16
  Speaker 6: to that. And as far as the draft is concerned,
• 38:19
  Speaker 6: or the combine or whatever that's going on this week.
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: I think we should because there's a deep draft. I
• 38:26
  Speaker 6: think we should look at the defense. If if we're
• 38:28
  Speaker 6: going to go line like I love, if we're going
• 38:31
  Speaker 6: to do that, I think we should look at the
• 38:32
  Speaker 6: defensive line first, okay, and then well whatever. We've got
• 38:41
  Speaker 6: a lot of needs. I don't even know where to start, but.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: Well I know where. I know where you want to start.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: You want to start on the defensive and the offensive
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: line at the same time. That's the problem. You can't
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: necessarily do that unless you're going to get something. We
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: got to find that the Travis Hunter of the offensive
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: defensive line. You gotta find that guy who just plays
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: both ways. That's who you need.
• 39:04
  Speaker 6: But we need more than one Nika.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: True true, especially now Zach Martin gone. But yeah, yep,
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: it's not.
• 39:11
  Speaker 6: I love I love Hoffman. Now, remember a couple of
• 39:15
  Speaker 6: months ago, I was like, hey, put them in.
• 39:16
  Speaker 9: Put him in there.
• 39:17
  Speaker 6: He aggressively to do something. And I noticed Dowdell. He
• 39:22
  Speaker 6: ran right behind Hoffman a lot. Yeah, you know, Dowdell's
• 39:25
  Speaker 6: my relative. But anyway, I'm not gonna get into that
• 39:28
  Speaker 6: because my last name is Dowdel.
• 39:30
  Speaker 9: But anyway, I'm not getting.
• 39:31
  Speaker 6: Into that all right, but I just wanted to say
• 39:34
  Speaker 6: one more thing until we get a good so very
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: good offensive and defensive line at the same time, this
• 39:41
  Speaker 6: is what we got. Cowboys, Fans go Cowboys.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: All right, Lester, I appreciate that makes me wonder are
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: we saying his name wrong? I mean, I thought it
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: was Rico Dwell, but maybe maybe it isn't. Maybe it's Studell.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: I know that we we cover for like five years,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: we covered Ebenezer Ebeneze are Ecubons, but we called him
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: for five years till he finally said, that's not you
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: say by name, it's a coupon. I'm like, oh, you
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: say anything, you know, but we still call him that.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: But anyways, either way, uh yeah, last caller, was it
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: was it Rob that said or yeah it was Rob
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: that was talking about how Rico you know you pay
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: for him, it's gonna be more than than drafting, you know,
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: the top pick in the in the first round. I
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: just I don't know if Ashton Genty makes it there, honestly,
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: to twelve. I just think he's gonna be that good
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: of a prospect where you know, the running back position
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: has has definitely made a comeback. And it's and not
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: just this year. I mean two years ago we saw
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: two in the top twelve. Bijon I think went eight,
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: Jami or Gibbs went twelve. And you know, I think
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Ashton Genzy is gonna be scouted just as just as
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: good as as those two guys, so if not higher.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: So you know, when who knows what mock drafts are?
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: You know how much stock you can put into them
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: right now, But the ones that always scroll across the
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: bottom here at the NFL network, I you know, if
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: my eyes catch them at the right time, I'm looking
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: at twelve or a little bit before that, and I
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: see Gentz's name going before the Cowboys at twelve. So
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: who knows? Now do you want to move up to
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: get that guy?
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: Now you're messing with the third round, you know, or
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: even the second round. I don't know if you want
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: to do that. But because they have they just have
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: so many needs, have some needs. I think they they
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: they sign a free agent running back and then and
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: with with the notion that you're gonna you're gonna split carries,
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: we're probably gonna draft one, gonna draft one in the
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: first or second round. But that's okay. I mean, look
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: at look at the Lions. I mean, look what they're doing.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, Montgomery's a lead back, so as Gibbs. They
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: they both eat and they do a good job. So
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: a great job. Actually, all right, Josh in Chicago is next. Josh.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: What's up?
• 42:06
  Speaker 5: Hey?
• 42:06
  Speaker 7: Nick?
• 42:07
  Speaker 15: A long time?
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: How are you doing?
• 42:09
  Speaker 15: Not bad, man, It's tough getting in man, I'm trying
• 42:11
  Speaker 15: every week. So yeah, good to talk with you.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: Well, it's good, it's good to hear from you. What
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: do you got for me today?
• 42:17
  Speaker 15: Well, first, just on the storyline All Star Team, I
• 42:19
  Speaker 15: just got to say. I know that we might keep
• 42:22
  Speaker 15: the captain and stuff the same, but you know, I
• 42:25
  Speaker 15: really think Dylan and Irene have been like MVPs. You know,
• 42:28
  Speaker 15: they got to be like offensive defensive best players.
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm going to mix up something there. I
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: don't want to bring too much there, but uh yeah,
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: I'm doing some changes. I'll say this. The first team
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: is going to have eleven because that's what a football
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: team has. First team has eleven, so I switched it
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: to eleven. So there's an eleven first teamers, eleven second teamers,
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: eleven third teamers. So there's a little bit more there
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: and we'll figure out something a little different with the captains.
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: But don't want to give too much away. Sure, but
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: without a doubt I'll say this, I mean, what this
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: show has. You know, everything in life, you want to
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: just get better and better if you're going to keep
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: doing it, try to you know, try to get better.
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: For not getting better, getting worse. We know that. But
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: and so the storylines, as far as the space is
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: in Twitter, that that's taking the show to another level.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: Just hearing that you guys talk every week or every
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: Wednesday and get to know each other and now you've
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: created you know, this show has helped create friends across
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: the nation, across the world. That's amazing. So for Dylan
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: and Irene to do that and start that, that's that's
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: next level stuff like that, and that that certainly is
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: not has not gone unnoticed.
• 43:39
  Speaker 15: It's definitely been a highly high point for this season, right,
• 43:42
  Speaker 15: I mean, yeah, yeah, I'll just leave.
• 43:45
  Speaker 9: It at that on that.
• 43:47
  Speaker 15: Hey, so talking contracts, and I agree with you, by
• 43:49
  Speaker 15: the way about gent I don't think he makes it
• 43:51
  Speaker 15: to twelve. I'd love to have him, but I just
• 43:53
  Speaker 15: don't think he makes it. Yeah, in terms of contracts
• 43:56
  Speaker 15: with like guys like Mike uh and I even think
• 43:59
  Speaker 15: Tyler Smith is eligible to start negotiating now. I think
• 44:02
  Speaker 15: it's after the third year.
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: I might be wrong on that, now, you're right he could,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: he could.
• 44:07
  Speaker 15: So I really think like one of the things that
• 44:09
  Speaker 15: the Cowboys have been not great at in the past
• 44:12
  Speaker 15: few seasons is getting ahead of some of these contracts.
• 44:15
  Speaker 15: And when Mahomes signed with Kansas City, he signed that
• 44:17
  Speaker 15: big ten year, four hundred million and that was like
• 44:20
  Speaker 15: break the Internet type of stuff back then, and now
• 44:23
  Speaker 15: it looks like such a team friendly deal. And that's
• 44:25
  Speaker 15: where I think the Cowboys should really try to go
• 44:27
  Speaker 15: with micah and even Tyler Smith. Right, give them a
• 44:30
  Speaker 15: long term contract. Their upside looks so huge. Why wait
• 44:33
  Speaker 15: around and maybe we guarantee it more and that could
• 44:36
  Speaker 15: affect us later on, but at least try something different
• 44:38
  Speaker 15: and try to lock these guys up long term.
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know. My main thing, I don't hate that
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: at all, especially with Tyler Smith. You know what he's
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: going to be. You know what he's going to be,
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: So give him a six year deal and worth you know,
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: it's a lot though. I mean, like agents aren't downb
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: you know, like they they can do that too, and
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: they you know that they can look into the future
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff and so. But but
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: as long as you know he's, like you said, you
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: guarantee a lot of money, you might might be worth it.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: And I think he's the type of player. He's super smart.
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: He works really hard, he's strong as an ox.
• 45:13
  Speaker 15: I mean, he's smart. He knows multiple positions.
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: Right, he doesn't he's I mean, he's he's such a
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: valuable player because if you lose a tackle in the
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: middle of the game, middle of the season, whatever, he
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: can come in and be your tackle. I think he's
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: you know, I think he's a guard. I mean he's
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: made two Pro Bowls in a row and All Pro
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: last year at guard. I think that's what he is.
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: But he certainly could play tackle.
• 45:37
  Speaker 15: And I think he only had like two or three
• 45:39
  Speaker 15: penalties this year, So it's.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: Like way down, way way down. Remember that was the
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: big knock on him. I mean the fans hated that
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: thirteen penalties last year at Tulsa, you know, in the
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: American Conference. I mean, how good is he? And then
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: the next year he had a lot of penalties as
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: a tackle. Now look at him, you know, he's he's
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: as good as they as they get there at guard.
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: So what a great pick that that was. And yeah,
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: the last couple haven't been so great at that, you know,
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: late twenties, uh with obviously Geydon and Mazzi, but not
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: too far removed from the from the Tyler pick. They
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: still got it in him. Is what I'm saying is
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: this team can still evaluate, they can still pick that.
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: They got to turn things around though in the draft
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: though for sure that the last couple of years have
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: been somewhat down.
• 46:23
  Speaker 15: I agree with you, and I'm still holding out some
• 46:24
  Speaker 15: hope for guiding and you know, it was a tough
• 46:26
  Speaker 15: rookie season, but hopefully you know, he gets stronger, it's better,
• 46:28
  Speaker 15: gets more comfortable and better feet, so hopefully won't hold
• 46:32
  Speaker 15: as much if he's get.
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: Some better feet there exactly the.
• 46:35
  Speaker 15: Last thing I got for you, if you can only
• 46:37
  Speaker 15: bring back Nick vigil or Eric Hendricks who you're bringing back,
• 46:39
  Speaker 15: and I'll take it off there.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: Thanks Nick vigil Or, Eric Kendricks. If I could bring
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: back one, is that your question? I mean, I don't
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: know is I'd bring back the starter. I'd bring the
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: starter right now. Obviously he's got to pay a little
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: bit more money. I'm vigil solid, you know, solid special
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: teams guy. Really good for a guy that never practiced,
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: I mean never practiced. He got hurt. He was hurt
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: all the time and during the season. But maybe I'm
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: missing something there. I'll bring back Eric Kendricks the starter
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: if possible. My point on Guiden I was gonna make
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: is is you know you said he's still holding not hoping,
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean first round pick. They're gonna they're
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: gonna try to get him turn to turn the corner
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: for sure. This is this is the time for Guiden.
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: This is the biggest part of the season for the
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: calendar year of twenty twenty five. If if, if you
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: could tell me that Tyler Guiden is going to be
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: a gold star performer for three months, I would pick
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: right now or at least March to May to be
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: off the charts the best he's going to be, because
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: if he can do that and turn things around on
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: get his body in better shape, get get his feet right,
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: understand how to be a pro, Understand how to play
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: this position. If he can do all that in these
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: next three months, then when this training camp and the
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: season starts, he's gonna be fine. He's gonna be fine.
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: This is the time for him for right now. The
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: most important that's my opinion, but the most important time
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: of the season for Tyler Guidon is right now, and
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: I hope he takes advantage of that. And and he's
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: got an offensive line coach is his offensive coordinator, Clayton
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: Adams is an O line coach, and he made no
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: bones about it, like I'm still gonna be a part
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: of the offensive line. You can you can believe that
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: Connor Riley is the offensive line coach in title. He's
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: gonna be working with Clayton Adams. They have assistance that
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: they have two to three guys really that that that
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: can that are coaching that old line. A lot of
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: attention to that. So no excuses of why like he
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: can't be better, But he's got to get better this
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: time of year right now. I still have hope for
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: him as well. They have to, I mean, his first
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: round pick. First round picks have to play, they have
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: to play at a high level. They've got to get
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: my MASSI swith got to get Tyler Gydon turned around.
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: You can't bust on two first round picks in a
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: row at all. All Right, we're at that point in
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: the show where we're calling back, so some people can't
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: call in once. Dylan could call in twice. Dylan, north Port, Florida, Hey,
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: what's up?
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: Hey? Nick? Hey, A couple things called that.
• 49:31
  Speaker 12: You know, nothing's changed in the last twenty minutes or so,
• 49:33
  Speaker 12: but Rob did give me going a little bit, so
• 49:35
  Speaker 12: I had to call that in. But first, a couple
• 49:37
  Speaker 12: things real quick. Thank you, last call, I think his
• 49:39
  Speaker 12: name was Josh, Thank you for the kind words. That's
• 49:43
  Speaker 12: much appreciated, shout out. I don't if this is new
• 49:45
  Speaker 12: what you guys are doing on YouTube live, but this
• 49:48
  Speaker 12: was cool that you guys have the chat going. And
• 49:50
  Speaker 12: I got Melvin on there, don't Fred carry all these
• 49:53
  Speaker 12: all these guys are on their chat and that's kind
• 49:54
  Speaker 12: of cool. That's something I asked for a while ago.
• 49:57
  Speaker 12: And that's one of the reasons why I created the
• 49:58
  Speaker 12: storyliner Twitter pages, because we didn't have a place to
• 50:01
  Speaker 12: go and chat live, and now I have it on YouTube,
• 50:05
  Speaker 12: so there you go. That's pretty awesome. That's kind of fun. Yeah,
• 50:09
  Speaker 12: and then I forgot to shout him out before on
• 50:12
  Speaker 12: my last call. But today is my daughter's birthday. Three daughters, Harper,
• 50:16
  Speaker 12: Happy birthday. She's four. My daughter Stella turned six earlier
• 50:21
  Speaker 12: this month, and I tell her her name's Italian first
• 50:24
  Speaker 12: star Stella. So she was born to be a Cowboys fan.
• 50:27
  Speaker 12: So good luck, good luck to her and that life
• 50:30
  Speaker 12: of disappointment in that regard when she comes over age
• 50:33
  Speaker 12: to really root for the team.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: Good luck to you. Yeah, a dad of three daughters.
• 50:39
  Speaker 12: Yeah, one seventeen and she's a great kid. But it's funny.
• 50:43
  Speaker 12: There's a week that flips at a certain point and
• 50:45
  Speaker 12: it gets real fun.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: I can say that, but as well, I'm the dad
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: of three daughters too, So yeah.
• 50:50
  Speaker 4: There you go.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: It's interesting, get interesting for sure.
• 50:53
  Speaker 8: All right, there you go.
• 50:56
  Speaker 12: Rob's point about free agency versus the draft, I disagree.
• 51:01
  Speaker 12: There's a direct correlation between. There's a lot of studies
• 51:06
  Speaker 12: done on this, and then spend level doesn't equate to
• 51:08
  Speaker 12: success in the NFL. In fact, that it equates to
• 51:11
  Speaker 12: negative success. The teams that spend big in free agency
• 51:14
  Speaker 12: are the teams that have a ton of cap space.
• 51:16
  Speaker 12: The reason they have a ton of cap space is
• 51:17
  Speaker 12: because they draft poorly and don't sign their guys. So
• 51:21
  Speaker 12: there you go on that one. The Eagles, they've drafted
• 51:23
  Speaker 12: really well, that's their base, and they've used free agency
• 51:26
  Speaker 12: as a cherry on top. Dallas has not drafted well.
• 51:30
  Speaker 12: I mean, I got the list chair, I won't go
• 51:32
  Speaker 12: through them, but the last three drafts, not twenty twenty
• 51:34
  Speaker 12: four included, but twenty three, twenty twenty one not great drafts.
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: Even though Mike it and.
• 51:38
  Speaker 12: Osa came out of twenty twenty one, none of their
• 51:40
  Speaker 12: other picks hit and really not allowed to pick sift
• 51:43
  Speaker 12: many of those drafts. So that's why the Cowboys, in
• 51:45
  Speaker 12: my opinion, are struggling now versus the Eagles, who have
• 51:47
  Speaker 12: that really solid base from the draft. And I don't
• 51:50
  Speaker 12: want to see the Cowboys spend big. I want to
• 51:52
  Speaker 12: see them have good acquisitions, not necessarily expensive acquisitions.
• 51:56
  Speaker 8: Of fre agency.
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you there, and I agree that
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: the Eagles have they out drafted the Cowboys like That's
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: been the biggest change is what the Eagles have drafted.
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: It's free agency is getting a lot of attention, and
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: it should say Kwon Barkley for sure, But but they've
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: drafted well and you know, give them credit. I mean,
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: like when when you have a good base you can say,
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: all right, well we'll take the we'll take Jalen Carter.
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: He oh yeah, what do you do in the off
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: off you know, off the field incident. Yeah, that's bad,
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: but but we'll be all right with them, you know.
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: And and that's what happened. And and they they lucked
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: into that pick, but they were able to. They were
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: confident enough in the pick to say, you know, it'll
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: it'll work out. And the Cowboys have done that too.
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: I mean they lucked into Lyell Collins that they signed him.
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: I mean that situation. He was supposed to be a giant,
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: a tenth overall pick, I mean, unfortunate situation. They they
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: got him. They need more of those. I mean sometimes
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: that that's the way it works. You got to look
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: into some of these.
• 52:55
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 52:55
  Speaker 12: And I think the Eagles listened to Leicester because they
• 52:57
  Speaker 12: started with the offensive defensive line and kind of BUI
• 53:00
  Speaker 12: from there.
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: Yep, for sure, you know, and appreciate that, you know,
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: and thanks Dylan for calling back again and and clarify that.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: And I do agree with that. I mean, everyone has
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: their own opinion about free agency and draft. I do
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: I do believe that it does. It still starts with
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: the draft. But what free agency, I mean, you you've
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: you've got to pick your spots as well. And what
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: I'm hoping for is is this coaching staff that's that's new.
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: I mean a lot of it's it's new. And Schottenheimer, yeah,
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: he's been here, but he's also been at other teams
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: as well, and he's been around other coaches and and
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: so kind of what I'm hoping is some of these
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: guys that have been at different places, some even in
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: college too. But at least you're taking you're taking guys
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: from pretty good programs. I mean, you know, Junior Adams
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: is he's been at Oregon. You know, they've got some
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: players over there. Connor Rodley has been in Kansas State,
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: and they they have players that they're not on the
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: same levels orgon as far as athletes on the field,
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: but but they they produce really good pros. And they
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: got a couple here that are hoping that can can
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: you know, shine when h when they've been reconnected to
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: to their coach. But I am I am hopeful that
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: a guy like Clayton Adams, you know, and who's been
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: around at some other places, can can kind of bring
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: some guys in that he's worked with in the past
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: or you know, and and that's that's kind of what
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: you hope for. So you can kind of steal some
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: free agency. Maybe it's not going to be super expensive,
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: but but guys that because of the connection and reunited
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: with with guys that have been here, can can be
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: good players. And and that's think about it. That's exactly
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: what happened last year with Eric Kendricks. They got to
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: steal in Eric Kendricks and they got him because he's
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: connection to to Mike Zimmer. That's that's why he signed here.
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: And so you get your hope for some more of
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: those type situations where you can get some really good value,
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: maybe not have to spend a ton to get there.
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Paul in Vancouver next.
• 54:55
  Speaker 10: Paul, what's up, Hey, good morning, how are you doing.
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: I did well, Thank you, I hope you're doing well.
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: Great.
• 55:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, just I just want to echo what everybody said
• 55:05
  Speaker 4: about Zach Martin. The amazing career and it's so rare
• 55:09
  Speaker 4: that he played his whole career with us, which is awesome.
• 55:12
  Speaker 4: So yeah, you know, I really respect those type of
• 55:15
  Speaker 4: guys like Sean Lee and Tyrone Crawford and Layton you know,
• 55:19
  Speaker 4: who played their entire career so Tony Romo. So it's
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: rare these days. What the big way it is drops
• 55:25
  Speaker 4: to him on an amazing paper.
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: It's weird that Jason Witten's name is not mentioned in that.
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: That's just because he didn't But but you know, sometimes
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: it happens that way. But it's all right, that wasn't
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: by choice.
• 55:37
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're They're Dallas Cowboys all the way. So all right,
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: what do you got to Paul?
• 55:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't want to get too philosophical on you,
• 55:44
  Speaker 4: but what how how much in today's game do you
• 55:48
  Speaker 4: think I did? Team identity matters in terms of play style?
• 55:51
  Speaker 4: And by that what I mean is I think what
• 55:53
  Speaker 4: the Cowboys do is they try to stack as many
• 55:55
  Speaker 4: good players as possible. And I'm not saying that's not
• 55:59
  Speaker 4: a good way to go. It has been successful to
• 56:01
  Speaker 4: a point. But the example I've heard you say before
• 56:04
  Speaker 4: is you just can't go to Texaco and grab everything
• 56:07
  Speaker 4: you need because what's been happening is when we play
• 56:09
  Speaker 4: good teams, elite teams, they pick at what we are
• 56:13
  Speaker 4: weak at and it doesn't work, and I feel identity
• 56:16
  Speaker 4: can kind of prevent that kind of stuff.
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: So what would you say that they should do differently?
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: You're talking about getting, You're saying, get players that fit
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: your scheme instead of just great overall players. Figure out
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: what your what your scheme is, what your identity is,
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: and then just just have those type of guys. Is
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: that what you're saying.
• 56:37
  Speaker 4: I'm leaning that way because I just don't think going
• 56:41
  Speaker 4: back to Sorry if you don't like this example, but
• 56:44
  Speaker 4: it's really resonated with you when you said parcels and
• 56:46
  Speaker 4: say you can't go to Texico and grab everything. You
• 56:49
  Speaker 4: just can't have a ten at every spot, right right?
• 56:52
  Speaker 4: If this is how the Cowboys are going to attract
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: their roster construction by being draft heavy and not waiting
• 56:58
  Speaker 4: for the third wave of free and see like this
• 57:01
  Speaker 4: is kind of how you have to do because it's
• 57:02
  Speaker 4: easier to find guys to put your scheme. Like look
• 57:04
  Speaker 4: at a guy like Jon Curse. He set a specific
• 57:07
  Speaker 4: mold like right, well, I'll do respect to him. I
• 57:10
  Speaker 4: never heard of him before he got here, and look
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: how well he played in the three years he was here.
• 57:15
  Speaker 4: So I feel like I just kind of hoping you
• 57:17
  Speaker 4: could touch on that how much identity matters.
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I kind of I don't know. I don't
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: know how much you can hear in the in the
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: when you were on hold. But that's sort of what
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: I was saying just now about about those those those drafts.
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry the assistant coaches that that they've worked with
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: some of these players and have have a history have
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: a connection with is that you know, you can bring
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: some of those guys in and and and see if
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: you could revamp their their career that way. I mean,
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: I'm they some of those I'm pretty sure maybe Dan
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: I thought dan Quinn might have had some history with
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: Curse maybe not though, but but but no, definitely Zimmer
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: and and uh and Eric Kendricks and and that's kind
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: of what I'm hoping for as well, is that you know,
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: bring some of these guys in that that you know
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: have have been good. Kean O'Neil was one that that
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: that dan Quinn had had before, and Uh, I forget
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: the other safety's name that that came in here, Caz
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: maybe from from Atlanta. So so you you bring bring
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: some guys in. Honestly, that's what dan Quinn did with Washington.
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: I mean when you think about it, I mean, you
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: bring some of those guys in. Now, he had to
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: pay for Dorian's armstrong, but but Dante Fowler and and
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: uh Igbanogay, I mean, those guys played played well and
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: it's because they they played in the system that they knew.
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: So that's kind of what I'm hoping for, is that
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: maybe eberflus Can can can get some guys that he's
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: worked with in the past that's done well Indianapolis or Chicago.
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: So that's where I think that from your identity of
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: bringing some guys in, it may not have to spend
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: a lot for it.
• 58:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, right, So yeah, I'm up about Settennheimik. I think
• 58:58
  Speaker 4: he is going to bring us running ident to be Yeah,
• 59:00
  Speaker 4: and I feel like it's gonna be. It could be
• 59:02
  Speaker 4: like twenty fourteen all over again, because you have a
• 59:03
  Speaker 4: really good quarterback like that that was similar to what
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: Tony was in the state of his career. So I
• 59:10
  Speaker 4: think of a strong running game, and you look at
• 59:12
  Speaker 4: Shotenhammer's history, He's had some good running games, So yeah,
• 59:15
  Speaker 4: I would I don't want to take up too much
• 59:16
  Speaker 4: of your time. So as I was hoping in this
• 59:20
  Speaker 4: offseason you can talk a bit more about why we
• 59:23
  Speaker 4: dropped so much in the red zone and they're down
• 59:26
  Speaker 4: on offense, Like, yeah, I don't know, it's Tony pollar
• 59:29
  Speaker 4: Fuey the MVP, Like I'm kind of or with a tyrant.
• 59:33
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure, Like I was hoping you can.
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: Talk about that. Yeah, well, I think I appreciate it.
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: Thanks for the call, Paul. I. You know, I don't
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: think that they they felt. I mean, there's think about
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: how many third and one third and two situations where
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: they were throwing the ball. You know, they had to
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: throw the ball late in the game. Was it the
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: Giants game where I mean they had they had a
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: Cooper Rush had to throw it out to Brandon Cooks
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: just to just to win the game. When when you
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: would want them to run the ball down there or not,
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: they weren't down there. But you know, run out the
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: clock a lot of times in the red zone at
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: the two yard line, three yard line, you know, running
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: is not an option. So the running game was was
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: I mean the the third downs and and definitely in
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: the red zone that was a problem just because they
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: couldn't run the football and and and they knew they couldn't.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: So that's that's always an issue. When you can just
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: say I will will run the ball and you can't
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: stop us, then you're gonna be a better red zone team,
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: You're gonna be better on third down and short yard situations,
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: and they you know that. That's that's one of the
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: biggest issues I think with that. So if you're gonna
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: be a you know, you're gonna turn the corner, gonna
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: be a violent running team, that that would be great.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: It'd be great to to to, you know, duplicate twenty
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: fourteen all over again with this type of team and
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: the draft some young offensive linemen and turn things around
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: that way and get a running back that that can
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: you know, that can run behind those guys. You know,
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: Dez had one of his best years that year as well,
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: so CD could do the same. They had a tied
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: end obviously that was making a Pro Bowl there, and
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: so when you get a strong offensive line, a lot
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: of other pieces start to get better as well. Let's
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: go our last break here on storeline. Be right back
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: after this.

  Speaker 1: Gavin in Oklahoma City is our next caller. It's been
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: a little bit Gavin. What's up?
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: It has?
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 9: Nick?
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 3: How's it going?
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 7: Man?
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: Good Man? How are you?
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: I'm great. I can't complain. I've been catching up on
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 3: all the episodes and I heard did you say something
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: about two or three people that I love to call back?
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: I was like, dang't talking to me. So I've had
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 3: a lot of time to reflect on the off season.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: I don't I haven't really been calling in because I
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 3: felt like I haven't had nothing to add. You know
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 3: what I mean. I'm not just gonna call you for
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 3: a T shirt. I value your time and your opinions.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 3: What I do have to add today. I think my
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: reflection has led me to the point where I just
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 3: wish and I think I think this might be the case.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 3: Hopefully it is the case that the Joneses realize they
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 3: have to do something different, and I have heard them
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 3: talk about it on some of y'all's interviews on the
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 3: dot com. But I think that as fans, the frustration
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 3: for me comes from I want them to understand that
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 3: this talent that they have with CD and Dak and Micah,
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 3: and I'm glad that they're keeping all these guys, and
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 3: I think they're doing the right thing, but I also
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 3: want them to realize this talent doesn't come all the time.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: I don't think I really don't believe we'll have this core,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 3: you know, at all times. It's just not realistic. So
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 3: what I would like to see the front office do
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 3: is to be a little bit more aggressive in free
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 3: agency and sign some people to some one year deals,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 3: because I think, why I say one year deals, If
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 3: they're so worried about the cap, we can sign mic
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: and now and make some cap space and sign some
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 3: free agency some pretty sizeable one year deals and see
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 3: where we're at with them after one year. Obviously, i'd
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 3: like them to get in the draft and get some
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 3: people who are ready. Now that's obviously been a problem,
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 3: and I wonder how much weight these new coaches are
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 3: going to have on that process, because it's kind of
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 3: hard to tell what coaches can really evaluate and which
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 3: ones can't. So I really hope Will McLay has the
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 3: most say so in this draft, and I think that
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 3: will be the case. Some things I would personally like
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 3: to see is them maybe look at another risk and
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 3: free agency instead of the draft, because I feel like
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 3: draft receivers are really hit or missed, and I know
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 3: Diggs is a free agent out there, and there's some
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 3: other people that I think could really add to this
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 3: team because the team really needs someone to help CD
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 3: carry the load, and we all know that. I'd like
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 3: to see them draft one of these young running backs
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 3: and a young d tackle because those two positions are deep.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 3: I've already told you before I really want John c
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 3: But if he's gone or if that's something they decide
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 3: not to do, I understand, and I really trust Will
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 3: McLay if he has the final say so on that.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 3: But that's all I got for you today, man. Thank
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: you for taking my call.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: All right, Gavin, appreciate that a lot of stuff there.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: You know, what you want in the offensive or that
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: wide receiver, that veteran wide receivers to take the load
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: off with CD. I mean he kind of wanted that
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: with Brandon Cooks, and you know, I thought I thought
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: that he did some nice things, uh last year or
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: two years, two seasons ago. But you know, we'll see
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: here as I just see, I'm sorry, I'm looking at
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: one of these mock drafts that just went through, and
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: there was Ashtroon genty at twelve. So I don't know
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: who's Bucky Brooks friend to friend of the show. My
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: eyes aren't that bad Bucky Brooks with his mock draft.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: So we'll see, we'll see that that there's a there's
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: an option for you know, it's it's early. We'll see
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: what these guys do at the combine, and you know
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: that that's another thing that they're gonna go and talk
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: to to two teams and these these players and and
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: and teams are gonna fall in love with some of
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: these guys and and just from a character standpoint, and
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: then they're gonna go on the field, whether it be
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: working out here or and or their they're pro day.
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: And that's where you know, that's why I think these
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: mock drafts are really are too early. A lot of
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: a lot of draft coverage, in my opinion, is a
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: little premature because somebody and I'm taking it back with
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: fifteen years. But somebody named Chris Johnson from East Carroll
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: Line is gonna run a four to two nine at
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 1: the combine and next thing, you know, he's the first
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: round pick. So that that will happen, and Xavier Worthy
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: will run his way into the first round and that
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: that obviously pushes somebody out or whatever. So nothing's happened yet,
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, they've all played their games, but there's
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: still a lot of things that are going to happen
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: between now and then that are going to change h stuff. Well,
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: I guarantee you there's a guy that will go in
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: the top ten that some people don't even have on
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: their mock drafts in the first round right now, but
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: he will go in the top ten. Somebody's gonna shoot
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: up the ward. There's somebody probably in that top ten
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: that may not go in the first round. So again, uh,
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: pretty early to be talked about stuff. It'd be great
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: if a running back it could jump into that mix
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: and kind of make the position more than just than
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: just just one one trick pony there. All right, All right,
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: let's go, uh Rob from Vegas. He doesn't kick extra,
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: he goes for two. So Rob we're back. What's up?
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 14: Well I heard Dylan call back in and I said,
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 14: I started laughing, and I said, why not.
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 6: Don't.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: I don't want to hear anyone say they can't call
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: in because you guys are calling in twice there. I
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: think we even have another, yeah, another one going for
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: two here all right after this and what what's up?
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 6: Man?
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 3: What do you?
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: What do you got again?
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 14: So I heard a call a call about you know,
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 14: the storyline team. And I'll be the first to say it.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 14: I think I've said it in the past. I may
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 14: be the captain, but Irene and Dylan are definitely the
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 14: most valuable players. And what they've done to build on
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 14: this and the things we do at on Wednesday nights.
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 14: It's kind of it's the R rated version of your
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 14: show and it and it's it's a lot of fun.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 14: I mean, I love the back at fourth then listed
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 14: at her Body and it's it's just a lot of fun.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 14: And it started off there was like maybe six seven
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 14: of us and now when you see how how many
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 14: people are on there, And what makes me laugh is
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 14: it usually starts at about nine o'clock Eastern time, So
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 14: for me, it's six o'clock, No big deal. These guys
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 14: will go to like midnight there time, and I'll laughing, like,
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 14: don't you just got to go to work?
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 12: You know?
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 14: But but it is, it's just so much fun. Yeah,
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 14: I will disagree. So I guess what I'm trying to
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 14: say is when I'm talking about building a team, I'm
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 14: not talking about building a team to build. I'm talking
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 14: about winning a Super Bowl. And if anybody remembers the
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 14: nineties Cowboys, nobody drafted better than the Dallas Cowboys when
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 14: when we did the Herschel Walker trade, and as great
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 14: as that draft was, it was Charles Haley and Free
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 14: who put us over the top drafting. You can only
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 14: draft so much. If you look at Philadelphia, yes they've
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 14: been drafting great, but we were even with them and
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 14: even better up until last year. They had two biggest
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 14: moves that put him over the top. We aj Brown
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 14: and Saquon.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 9: That is it.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 14: If you take Saquon off that Eagles team, they're not
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 14: in the super Bowl. As great as they drafted, as
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 14: great as that those defensive linemen were, they wouldn't be
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 14: near the super Bowl if he wasn't on that team.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 14: And that's all I'm saying, you could. You need the
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 14: draft because there's only so many guys you get in
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 14: free agency. But you have to get players, not bodies.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 14: That's the difference. We've been getting bodies. We've been getting
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 14: you know, Eric Kendricks, nice player, but he's a body.
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 14: Go get players that become stars for years, not the
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 14: one hit one that you know, the one year guy here,
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 14: the one year No, go get Drake green Law. Uh,
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 14: he could be he could solidified opposition for years. Go
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 14: get up Milton Williams. He could be a star. That's
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 14: all I'm saying. I know you have to do both,
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 14: but let's not get twisted with Philadelphia. I don't think
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 14: anybody except Philadelphia fans believe they would have been winning
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 14: a super Bowl if they didn't have Barkley, because they
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 14: won him, they would not have been there.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: No, of course, not, of course not and there. And
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: I think Barkley, you know, benefited from an Eagles offensive
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: line when you know, think about what they have. I
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: mean when when he went to he didn't have an
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: offensive line like that with the Giants. He certainly didn't
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: have to two top you know, top first round receivers
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: or even a tied end or a quarterback like that.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 14: So this is this is going to piss people off,
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 14: and it pisses me off. But Barkley to the Eagles
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 14: was Zeke to us. When we drafted Zeke, it was
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 14: supposed to be with Tony Romo, right and and and
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 14: that's what we were hoping to see. And I think
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 14: we would have seen that if Tony didn't get hurt.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 14: As great as Dak played is a rookie year, if
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 14: you had a healthy Tona Romo because he was in
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 14: his prime, I disagree. And that's that was the thing.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 14: That's what the Philadelphia said. You know, the missing piece
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 14: is if we get a great running back and put
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 14: it behind this O line, it'll be awesome. And that's
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 14: what we did. Unfortunately the quarterback went down, so it works.
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 14: But you know, that's all I'm saying. With the free agency,
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 14: you got to get difference maker's bodies just don't don't
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 14: win Super Bowls.
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: I agree. Now I'm going to ask you this real quick.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: So if you if you were playing football right now, okay,
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: playing football, and you are the captain, how many captains
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: do you think should go out to the to the
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: center of the field. For the coin toss. I mean,
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 1: you really just need one. But how many do you
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: think would go out there?
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 14: Well, I would have a offensive captain, the defensive captain,
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 14: and special a special special teams captain. I always said,
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 14: you're you're the you're the head coach.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: Three captains and that's kind of what.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 14: Yeah, you're the head coach and then you know, but yeah,
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 14: I would say three.
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, that's kind of what I'm thinking.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: All right, good stuff, all right, appreciated this the callback.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: We got another another guy going for two. This is
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: Zach in Atlanta. He's gotta double down the line. What's up?
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 7: Run it back?
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 5: Man, let's go.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 1: Are you gonna hold on? You might just be the
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: bookend to the show here. You might just start us
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: off and and you know you're like the picture you
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 1: started the game and you're close in the game.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, man, hang it in the raptors. Put that on
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 5: the record books. Let's go. I'm here for it. Hey,
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 5: I just had a quick, quick, little game for you. Okay,
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 5: all right, So you can pick one player from the
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 5: past two drafts, not Mozzie, not Tower Smith, not the
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 5: first round picks one player from the past two drafts
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 5: to take a major leap forward that would make you
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 5: pass on that same position. For this draft, we have
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 5: a lot of needs, right right, So pick one player
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 5: from the past two drafts, not first rounders, to take
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 5: a major leap where you are making the decision to
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 5: pass on a position. If it's me, I think corner
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 5: is a sneaky need in the years to come. I'm
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 5: thinking Kaylen Carson if you can figure it out. Also
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 5: honorable mention to Ryan Flinoy, I'm still believing. All right, man,
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 5: have a good one.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: All right, appreciate it. I can't even think back to
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: to after last year's draft, Like I know, Schoonmaker was
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: the second round pick. I can't even think about the
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: third and the fourth right now. I think Junior Vjoko
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: might have been in there that group. But guys that
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 1: would take a big, big leap. You know, if if
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: you can't be Mazie, I mean, I'm I'm I'm definitely
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: fine with with with Kaylene and Carson taking a big
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: jump because you know somebody at the cornerback position is
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: going to have to do that for sure. I don't
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: have my stuff in front of me here. People steal
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: media guides around here. But I think I'm trying to
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: think who the third, third, and fourth round picks were from.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: I mean BB. If BB takes a big leap, you know,
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 1: Marris leafal would be would be another. I mean, those
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: guys right there had good, good rookie seasons. I thought
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: Cooper bbe had a really good rookie season. But he
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: takes a leap, and maybe it's not even at center.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm interested to see what happens there if
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: if if he's still going to be center, maybe he
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: moves back to guard. Maybe Hoffman is you know, a
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: guy that that gets some play at center, depending on
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 1: who they draft in there and who they add in
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: free agency. But if Cooper BB takes a big leap
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: from what he did last year, you know, we're talking
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 1: about a guy that could compete for Pro Bowl if
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: you know, it takes that big, big of a leap.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: So that would be one. Uh and then and and
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: marys Lee foul as well. I know I'm just taking
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: it back to last year's draft, but but those two,
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: for sure, it would be nice if they took a leap.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go Bruce in Philly, Bruce, what's up?
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 11: Nick, what's going on?
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 1: How you doing.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 14: Horrible?
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 11: I'm gonna be honest with.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 9: You, horrible.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 11: I mean this is brutal, man. I'm contemplating moving to
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 11: day Dallas. The last time I talked to you, you
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 11: were coming to Philly. I told you to bring a
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 11: coat and I think it was like sixty degrees. Yeah,
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 11: at that game next Sunday, you didn't need a cop. No,
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 11: we the team probably needed more more than the cop.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 11: But nevertheless, it's been horrible, man.
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 9: These fans are brutal.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 11: Oh god, it's unbearable.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's bad enough to have obnoxious, classless
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: fans and then give him a championship now that they
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: have know something to like cheer about. For sure. Have
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 1: you been getting in or anything like that?
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 11: Uh, nothing physical, But I got family members and friends
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 11: I haven't talked to a week since the game. It's
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 11: been bad. I'll be and that's know how perfectly.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 7: It's just it's.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 11: Been bad because you know, now this team, these fans
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 11: they really feel you know, solidified in you know, their
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 11: stance and in what the Cowboys are.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 3: This is just.
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 11: Honestly a brutal season, you know, just the way that
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 11: things went for the Cowboys and and then things went
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 11: to the youth. I mean, they were on polarized ends
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 11: of the spectrum in terms of what we dealt with
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 11: in them winning the championships. So you know, it is
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 11: what it is, and trying to spin the wills forward.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 11: I'm really like looking at, honestly, like the big elephant
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 11: in the room that you can't ignore, and it is
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 11: the quarterback position. I'm looking forward.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 9: To that coming back.
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 11: How however, that backup quarterback position because of the history
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 11: and no matter what you get with the team, if
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 11: that quarterback goes down, I just want to make sure
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 11: that we have something in place. And I don't know
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 11: if this is a popular thing to say, but the
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 11: Donald throw to the to the ends on the side,
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 11: I really like what I saw in Trey Lance, and
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 11: I wouldn't mind the investment in him as the backup
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 11: going forward. Now. I don't know what the team is
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 11: thinking or what they're leaning towards, but I really would
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 11: like him as opposed to maybe getting a quarterback in
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 11: the round later rounds. I'd just like them to really
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 11: focusing on Trey Lance. I've seen enough in that Washington
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 11: game that made me more confident and him being a
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 11: quarterback going forward, and I wanted to get your thoughts
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 11: on that and too. I listened to.
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 7: Rob, and I.
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 11: Know you talked about the free agency.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 9: And that made me immediately think about that Dallas.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 11: Team that lost the Green Bay in the playoffs, because
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 11: I feel like they really settled on that defense that
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 11: really had no pass rushers and they were content with that.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 11: And I feel like we were a pass rusher away
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 11: in that game from winning that game, aside from that
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 11: DeMarco Murray fumble. But I really think that was a
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 11: year they needed to invest in free agency and they
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 11: didn't with that team. But I think we are still
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 11: players away because you saw the lack of depth that
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 11: we had. So I do agree with Dak in some
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 11: ways that we've competed well with the Eagles in recent
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 11: years over time, but we have to be bigger, you know,
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 11: we have to be built to win in the late
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 11: rounds of the playoffs.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 7: I think our.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 11: Defenses and two of those games against the forty nine ers,
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 11: both of those games against the forty nine ers, I
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 11: think we were good enough. And I'm just really I
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 11: just really I liked Schottenheimer. I like sticking with him.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 11: I really hope because I think that was a Dak move.
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 11: I really hope that Dak is doing some things differently
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 11: too to take care of himself. I looked at some
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 11: of the non traditional things that Jay and Daniels was
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 11: doing to prepare for games. Maybe Dak needs to get
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 11: a VR and invest in that too. But so the
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 11: quarterback position, I would like to hear your thoughts on that,
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 11: all right. Definitely just thinking about, like I really think
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 11: we're really close to the Eagles, So just hear your thoughts.
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that. Good luck there in Philly dealing with
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: with that. You've obviously heard it, you know, for years,
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: but now with him winning the championship another one, I'm
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: sure it's even it's even worse to take right now.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: That's an interesting, uh scenario about Trey Lance being the
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 1: backup and not them going for Cooper Rush or drafting one.
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: You know, what he gives you is he he would
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 1: come into the game and give you a little bit more,
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 1: a lot more mobility. But you know, he's got a
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: lot of learning to do as far as the offense goes,
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: and and and and what you know, and just developing
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: into a pro being a decision maker as well. I
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 1: didn't think they called the best game obviously with him,
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 1: And I thought he did a decent job in that
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: last game. I don't think they helped him much. And
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: and and they had him, you know, throwing the ball
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: around when you know, I think they could have done
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: different things, different calls, to utilize his strengths a little
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 1: bit more. But that's interesting. I mean, I think it
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: would make people feel better if if they didn't just
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: waste the pick and the fourth round at least they
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: you know, it could resign him. But that's an interesting
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: market too, Like what what what does he demand for that?
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 3: What?
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: What kind of contract is he going to get? Is
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: he going to be a backup for some team? Is
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: he going to be a third quarterback? Uh? That's that's
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: gonna be Uh, that'll be interesting to see exactly what
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: what happens with with the Cowboys and what they do,
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 1: what any team does, uh with with Trey Lance and
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 1: what they do at the backup position. All Right, A
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: lot of good stuff. We had fourteen calls, not exactly
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: fourteen callers, but it's okay. These guys calling back a
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: couple of times had some points going back and forth,
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: a little bit like a tennis match. It was fun
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: all right here at the Cowboys Storyline. Thanks for changing
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: it up with me this week. We'll go back to
