- 0:11Speaker 3: Cowboys.
- 0:14Speaker 1: This is Cowboys Storyline with Nick Eapman. What's up? Welcome
- 0:24Speaker 1: to Cowboys Storyline. It's Wednesday, April the thirtieth, Almost done
- 0:29Speaker 1: with April here last day before we get to May
- 0:32Speaker 1: and keep this thing rolling. Cowboys have had their NFL
- 0:37Speaker 1: Draft this past weekend. The draft has coming, gone, and
- 0:41Speaker 1: let's talk about it. What do y'all think? What you
- 0:44Speaker 1: Obviously we've had one show since the first round pick,
- 0:47Speaker 1: Tyler Booker from Alabama. I think that mostly people were
- 0:53Speaker 1: okay with that. With that pick, I think I think
- 0:55Speaker 1: there was some thought there was going to be a
- 0:56Speaker 1: wide receiver or maybe a running back. But you know,
- 1:00Speaker 1: after the pick and listening to people talk about it,
- 1:03Speaker 1: I think more people have gotten on board. And then
- 1:06Speaker 1: listening to his press conference on Friday was amazing. If
- 1:11Speaker 1: you haven't, if you haven't seen it, I recommend you
- 1:13Speaker 1: you go back and you watch that. It's impressive. But
- 1:19Speaker 1: I'll say this, and I've said to a few people,
- 1:21Speaker 1: I do remember being very impressed by Tyler Geyton as well,
- 1:24Speaker 1: and his his first press conference and then Obviously that
- 1:28Speaker 1: doesn't mean you're going to have a great season or
- 1:30Speaker 1: going to be a great player or whatever it is.
- 1:32Speaker 1: But you like what you hear. But but Tyler Booker,
- 1:35Speaker 1: that was on another level. That was another level. That's
- 1:38Speaker 1: up that he was saying. You got to go back
- 1:39Speaker 1: and watch it if you haven't seen it. It was
- 1:41Speaker 1: It was really impressive. It's the only time I can
- 1:43Speaker 1: remember a guy speaking like that where even the guys
- 1:46Speaker 1: around him, Shottenheim or Steven Jones, everyone's looking at around
- 1:50Speaker 1: with their eyebrows up like you're hearing this, like this
- 1:53Speaker 1: is this is this is not normal? But it was.
- 1:57Speaker 1: It was awesome. There's a couple of things about what
- 1:59Speaker 1: he said that that I really were impressive. Really, everything
- 2:02Speaker 1: he said was impressive. But it was good stuff. All right,
- 2:05Speaker 1: we can talk about all of the other picks as well.
- 2:09Speaker 1: I'll see if I can remember them all. I had
- 2:11Speaker 1: to print it out and then I left that on
- 2:13Speaker 1: my desk. It's okay, I think, I think I know
- 2:16Speaker 1: for the most part, I can remember where they were.
- 2:18Speaker 1: We could talk about it. I do want to give
- 2:21Speaker 1: one update though, for for the listeners for one of
- 2:26Speaker 1: our storyline family members, Randy and tex Arekana. You know,
- 2:30Speaker 1: he's going through cancer treatment right now. He had surgery yesterday.
- 2:36Speaker 1: He's in recovery now. He sent a video message to
- 2:40Speaker 1: Chris Beam. It looks like he's in recovery. Okay, I'll
- 2:45Speaker 1: just say this, like, you know, he's not. He's probably
- 2:49Speaker 1: not ready to run a forty times right this second.
- 2:51Speaker 1: But he sent the message and he said he's doing
- 2:55Speaker 1: he's doing okay, and he said he's going to try
- 2:58Speaker 1: to call. I don't know if I recommend this or not,
- 3:01Speaker 1: but you know, he's a grown man. If that's what
- 3:03Speaker 1: he wants to do, if he could do it, that
- 3:05Speaker 1: would be amazing. If we if he can, we can
- 3:08Speaker 1: get him on the line, that would be awesome. I
- 3:10Speaker 1: know you guys would love to hear that, but but
- 3:11Speaker 1: I wanted to pass that along that he's he's alert.
- 3:16Speaker 1: He sent a message to Chris. He wanted it. That's
- 3:19Speaker 1: important for him to let us know. So I'm letting
- 3:22Speaker 1: you guys know as well. We're all praying for Randy.
- 3:25Speaker 1: All right, let's keep it going now, let's go. Chuck D.
- 3:29Speaker 1: Bridge City, Texas will be our first caller. Chuck D.
- 3:32Speaker 1: What's up?
- 3:33Speaker 4: What's up?
- 3:34Speaker 5: Nick?
- 3:35Speaker 6: There's so much stuff I want to say, but I'll
- 3:39Speaker 6: go short. I was talking to Bean and I asked
- 3:43Speaker 6: him about getting the phone calls if he gets to
- 3:45Speaker 6: listen to him, and he said that he does and
- 3:47Speaker 6: he actually it's one of the first guys that started
- 3:49Speaker 6: doing that, and he has other teams calling him. I
- 3:51Speaker 6: thought that was pretty cool talking to him. Uh, but
- 3:54Speaker 6: more on this draft. Listened to the audio MafA and
- 3:59Speaker 6: they said that the coach, the running backs coach, said
- 4:01Speaker 6: I know you were hurt this year and we can't
- 4:04Speaker 6: We're excited to see what you can do. So I
- 4:06Speaker 6: didn't even know he was hurt.
- 4:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know a whole lot about him. About MafA,
- 4:12Speaker 1: I watched some of the tape of him and it
- 4:15Speaker 1: looks pretty good. But again I don't know. I don't
- 4:19Speaker 1: know all the other details of why he fell to
- 4:21Speaker 1: the seventh round or whatever. But not not bad, you know,
- 4:26Speaker 1: like like just what I saw. I mean, I saw
- 4:29Speaker 1: forty fifty yard runs against North Carolina State Florida State,
- 4:34Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I saw big, big, powerful back
- 4:36Speaker 1: with some breakaway speed. So that's impressive, you know, But
- 4:41Speaker 1: again I don't know his whole story. I really don't.
- 4:44Speaker 6: Yeah, he's big, he's like two twenty something.
- 4:46Speaker 1: Yeah, it's big, powerful back.
- 4:49Speaker 6: Doubt Clinton's a big school. So I'm like, man, this
- 4:53Speaker 6: could be still maybe it is.
- 4:56Speaker 1: It could be, you know, I mean, it definitely could be. Now,
- 4:59Speaker 1: he wasn't the first back drafted. Obviously they got Blue
- 5:03Speaker 1: Jaydon Blue from from Texas. But yeah, you know, you're
- 5:07Speaker 1: just just adding that that was one that they were
- 5:10Speaker 1: really excited about getting in the seventh round. So that's
- 5:13Speaker 1: what I love about this show. We got set, we
- 5:15Speaker 1: had what nine picks, and when we're talked about almost
- 5:17Speaker 1: the last pick here in the seventh round. But hey,
- 5:21Speaker 1: it's always somebody that kind of catches your eye and
- 5:23Speaker 1: MafA for you. That's great.
- 5:26Speaker 6: And last thing, any rumblings the big trade that he
- 5:29Speaker 6: had talked about alluded to is that maybe a receiver.
- 5:32Speaker 6: And have you all heard any buzz around there? And uh,
- 5:35Speaker 6: that's all I got.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Okay, thanks for the call, Chuck. Yes, it sounds like
- 5:40Speaker 1: some of that trade talk was for a receiver. Has
- 5:43Speaker 1: there been a buzz around here? Yes, yeah, there has been.
- 5:48Speaker 1: Do I get to share the names of potential trades? No, not,
- 5:54Speaker 1: not not at all, just because that would be considering
- 5:57Speaker 1: tampering from a team standpoint on a guy that's with
- 6:02Speaker 1: another team. If it happens, it happens, But you know,
- 6:07Speaker 1: I can't really get into all that. Now that there's
- 6:09Speaker 1: been talk of some other players that aren't free agents,
- 6:11Speaker 1: and those names have been mentioned as well, so it
- 6:16Speaker 1: seems very obviously they are going to add a receiver
- 6:20Speaker 1: in some capacity through a trade, which would probably be
- 6:23Speaker 1: next year's picks, or you're just in free agency, so
- 6:27Speaker 1: something will probably happen. Obviously, the Cowboys did not pick
- 6:31Speaker 1: up a wide receiver in the draft, even though they
- 6:34Speaker 1: had a shot in the first round, and I'm sure
- 6:38Speaker 1: if Ted McMillan was there, he was probably going to
- 6:41Speaker 1: be the pick, but he wasn't there and they went
- 6:43Speaker 1: with Booker. That just goes to show what they had
- 6:46Speaker 1: grades on for the other guys, Abuka and then Golden.
- 6:50Speaker 1: I believe they had second round grades, so they weren't
- 6:52Speaker 1: going to take a reach there. Many people think that
- 6:55Speaker 1: Booker was a reach, not for them, not on their board.
- 6:58Speaker 1: They did not reach for him. That that was exactly
- 7:01Speaker 1: where they had him slotted in and that's where they
- 7:04Speaker 1: picked him. So was he overgraded? We'll find out. I mean,
- 7:08Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys that have been overgraded, but
- 7:10Speaker 1: certainly wasn't a reach. They weren't sitting there going we
- 7:13Speaker 1: have to take a guard. We'll just take the best guard.
- 7:15Speaker 1: Because we lost Zach Martin. We're just gonna take the
- 7:17Speaker 1: best guard. That was absolutely not what happened at all.
- 7:21Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Sebastian Savannah, Georgia. What's up.
- 7:24Speaker 7: Good morning with seven.
- 7:25Speaker 8: How you doing good?
- 7:26Speaker 1: How are you?
- 7:27Speaker 7: I'm doing great. I appreciate the invitation to the second
- 7:30Speaker 7: year second team of well all storyline. I was very
- 7:33Speaker 7: excited to hear that.
- 7:34Speaker 1: Huh, that's right, that's right.
- 7:36Speaker 7: Let's say you put it like this, right, we got
- 7:39Speaker 7: big Robin Vegas. He's a head coach. Sometimes he gives
- 7:41Speaker 7: your heart love. He seems a little grumpy sometimes, but
- 7:44Speaker 7: you know what's coming from a place of love.
- 7:46Speaker 8: Right.
- 7:46Speaker 7: You got my boy Dylan down there, he's the quarterback
- 7:48Speaker 7: of the team. He leaves the franchise right now. And
- 7:51Speaker 7: then you got the lovely Irene in the dream. She's
- 7:54Speaker 7: the captain and the leader of the special team. So
- 7:56Speaker 7: she makes everybody know that they're important. So I appreciate
- 7:58Speaker 7: everybody who's involved in thing, right, But I'm on defense
- 8:01Speaker 7: this year, so I'm like, I'm feeling good, you know,
- 8:03Speaker 7: while I'm at corner, which is happened to be my
- 8:05Speaker 7: favorite pick of the draft because you know, I wanted
- 8:07Speaker 7: that first round corner and we got him in the third,
- 8:10Speaker 7: say Von red Veil, that was my absolute favorite pick
- 8:14Speaker 7: of the draft.
- 8:15Speaker 4: Obviously, Why do you like.
- 8:16Speaker 1: Him so much? I mean, have you have you watched them?
- 8:20Speaker 9: Yes?
- 8:20Speaker 7: So if you if you remember, I'm from I'm from
- 8:23Speaker 7: an Auburn, Michigan, so Michigan's my hometown team. And I
- 8:26Speaker 7: watched him play Michigan in one of those games where
- 8:28Speaker 7: like it's kind of a pick on me team, and
- 8:30Speaker 7: he was like, you're not picking on me. He almost
- 8:32Speaker 7: picked off JJ McCarthy twice. He's got great, great instincts.
- 8:36Speaker 7: I'm talking about borderline clairvoyants. The way he flows to
- 8:39Speaker 7: the ball. He finds that ball like DV does, like
- 8:42Speaker 7: Trayvon and.
- 8:43Speaker 10: Is heyday Dead.
- 8:44Speaker 7: He's a great ball player, and he's got good size
- 8:48Speaker 7: and he's not afraid the tackles. That's the difference between
- 8:49Speaker 7: him and Trayvon. This guy will go out there and tackle.
- 8:52Speaker 7: He's a much better player than the school. What happened
- 8:56Speaker 7: was he decided to be loyal to the school who
- 8:57Speaker 7: was loyal to him. And I respect that, mister h
- 9:00Speaker 7: I one respect that. But you guys have a great day.
- 9:03Speaker 7: And that's it for me. Oh that first round picked off,
- 9:06Speaker 7: Oh that was divisive. I was in the comments cracking up.
- 9:09Speaker 1: What was that?
- 9:11Speaker 7: Oh, there, we're going back, They're going back and forth.
- 9:13Speaker 7: They were all they were going back to the lineman
- 9:15Speaker 7: guys and the people who wanted a wide receiver or
- 9:17Speaker 7: cornerbacker or like basically a more effective player on the
- 9:21Speaker 7: team who could score points or take points off the board.
- 9:24Speaker 7: And uh, you know, I was out there instigating and
- 9:26Speaker 7: having fun. But it was it was a good time.
- 9:28Speaker 2: The draft was.
- 9:28Speaker 7: They had a very good draft. I give them an
- 9:30Speaker 7: a overall. Uh, And I like Booker. Don't ever be mistaken.
- 9:35Speaker 7: I love to pick a Booker. But you know how
- 9:37Speaker 7: I sought. It's about cornerback or wide receiver in the
- 9:38Speaker 7: first round.
- 9:39Speaker 1: You guys have a great day, all right, all right,
- 9:41Speaker 1: thank you appreciate that. And and Sebastian is what he
- 9:44Speaker 1: was alluding to, was was the all storyline squad that
- 9:48Speaker 1: we announced on Friday, We tried to give heads up
- 9:52Speaker 1: as much as we can put it on social media
- 9:55Speaker 1: that we were having the show had a pretty good engagement,
- 9:58Speaker 1: but I'm sure there are some that are still listening
- 10:01Speaker 1: that are like, wait, I didn't know we were having
- 10:02Speaker 1: a show, and what my name was called? And and
- 10:05Speaker 1: and yes, so I have I have the list later
- 10:09Speaker 1: on in the show, I'll do a quick rundown on it.
- 10:12Speaker 1: But we had Yeah, we had four captains as as
- 10:16Speaker 1: Sebastian was kind of referring to their irene, Rob, Dylan
- 10:19Speaker 1: and Randy uh where the are the captains? And he
- 10:22Speaker 1: was he was on the second team. We had eleven
- 10:25Speaker 1: on each, just like offense defense type thing. First team,
- 10:29Speaker 1: second team, third team. Excuse me, I had an international squad.
- 10:33Speaker 1: Had some honorable mentions as well. But again as and
- 10:38Speaker 1: and the and the first second third teamers and the captains.
- 10:42Speaker 1: Of course, get this awesome yetty storyline Tumblr, This is
- 10:46Speaker 1: pretty awesome. I don't even know what to put in
- 10:50Speaker 1: it just yet. I I don't know. I haven't figured
- 10:53Speaker 1: it out yet. I still got my bottle of water here.
- 10:55Speaker 1: All right, let's keep rolling here, let's go branded. I'm
- 10:59Speaker 1: not even going to try to pronounce this Brandon and Idaho?
- 11:03Speaker 1: Where in Idaho? Are you at?
- 11:04Speaker 2: Brandon Quarterlin in Idaho?
- 11:06Speaker 11: Sir?
- 11:08Speaker 1: It just seems so when I've reading that down here,
- 11:11Speaker 1: just seems so much difficult to pronounce them that. All right?
- 11:15Speaker 1: Can I just say Idaho?
- 11:17Speaker 2: That's perfectly fine?
- 11:18Speaker 1: First time caller? So that means Chris, That means he's
- 11:25Speaker 1: on the phone. Brandon. What's going on?
- 11:27Speaker 12: Man?
- 11:27Speaker 1: How you doing?
- 11:29Speaker 2: I'm good, good, Nick? How you doing this morning?
- 11:31Speaker 1: I'm good, good, good good talk to me.
- 11:34Speaker 12: So.
- 11:35Speaker 2: I think a lot of people have been given the
- 11:37Speaker 2: Cowboys heat for their draft picks, but I think they
- 11:40Speaker 2: hit home runs in their first four picks. Big fan
- 11:43Speaker 2: of Jayden Blue. Yeah, he fell off a little bit
- 11:45Speaker 2: last year with Texas. Weisner kind of took over there,
- 11:49Speaker 2: but he is durable, he's fast. Love that pick Booker.
- 11:54Speaker 2: I think he can be a maller in that line.
- 11:57Speaker 1: Got Yeah. I mean that's that's that's why you take
- 12:00Speaker 1: him at that at that spot in the round, is
- 12:02Speaker 1: that he's going to have to move people off the ball.
- 12:06Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 12:06Speaker 2: I watched that podcast whatever Micah was doing, and you say,
- 12:11Speaker 2: I got me hyped. My question is with the running backs,
- 12:18Speaker 2: they took, do just mean the end of Deuce Vaughn
- 12:22Speaker 2: in that backfield, I.
- 12:24Speaker 1: Don't see a spot for him. I mean, honestly, he's
- 12:27Speaker 1: going to have to do He's gonna have to be
- 12:29Speaker 1: Kansas State Douce Fun. But then again, he's got some
- 12:31Speaker 1: Kansas State ties. He's got his coach back, his offensive
- 12:35Speaker 1: coordinator is coaching the offensive line. So maybe this is it.
- 12:40Speaker 1: Maybe this is the turn the corner year for him.
- 12:43Speaker 1: And if so, then that creates a fun problem. But
- 12:47Speaker 1: I mean, as it stands right now, if he keeps
- 12:49Speaker 1: doing what he's gonna what he's been doing, and he
- 12:53Speaker 1: because because he's only doing things in the preseason, that's
- 12:57Speaker 1: really the only time we've seen this. And they're going
- 12:59Speaker 1: to give the ball the blue and MafA. I mean,
- 13:02Speaker 1: they're going to get opportunities in the preseason. So I
- 13:05Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know where where it fits for
- 13:08Speaker 1: for Deuce Fun Malik. They've is still on the team
- 13:11Speaker 1: as well, but we'll see.
- 13:14Speaker 2: Oh, I appreciate the time, Nick, all right, have a
- 13:17Speaker 2: good one.
- 13:17Speaker 1: Thank you. Appreciate that Brandon from Idaho. First time caller
- 13:22Speaker 1: Chris didn't give him these flowers. There we go, all right,
- 13:26Speaker 1: all right, thanks Brandon, appreciate it.
- 13:30Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 13:30Speaker 1: I mean, just like with any with all of these picks,
- 13:34Speaker 1: because they started the draft with seventy seven players on
- 13:39Speaker 1: the roster, you can have ninety at the end of
- 13:42Speaker 1: this week whenever the free agents come in. And so
- 13:45Speaker 1: they had seventy seven, they had ten draft picks, what
- 13:48Speaker 1: they ended up with nine. But so it only you
- 13:52Speaker 1: know they were only going to get three rookie free agents.
- 13:54Speaker 1: Well they've signed nine free agents, so you do the math.
- 13:58Speaker 1: They've added eighteen players for the team spots. You can imagine.
- 14:02Speaker 1: I can promise you between now and Thursday, there's gonna
- 14:05Speaker 1: be five players on this team released. And you know,
- 14:09Speaker 1: I have a decent idea of who they are, and
- 14:11Speaker 1: I mean they're they're probably you know, they're guys that
- 14:14Speaker 1: have been around for a little bit and just haven't
- 14:16Speaker 1: haven't done anything, haven't haven't done what they're supposed to do.
- 14:19Speaker 1: Look at a running back position, you know, I mean,
- 14:22Speaker 1: they they've added in free agency Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders,
- 14:28Speaker 1: and then in the draft they average Jayden Blue and
- 14:31Speaker 1: Phil MafA. So would you throw that in with what
- 14:35Speaker 1: is here with Deuce Van Malik Davis. I mean probably
- 14:40Speaker 1: seems a little crowded. I would imagine they make it
- 14:44Speaker 1: the decision here. I mean, Davis has been here for
- 14:47Speaker 1: three years now. I mean like it's you know, it's
- 14:49Speaker 1: just we just haven't seen a lot of improvement there
- 14:52Speaker 1: to the point where they're they're obviously adding four backs
- 14:55Speaker 1: in free agency. So I mean, I'm sorry in the
- 14:58Speaker 1: off season two free agency to in the draft. All right,
- 15:01Speaker 1: Michael and Bowling Green, Kentucky's next, Michael, what's up?
- 15:05Speaker 13: Well, first, I want to say, Randy, we're all caring
- 15:08Speaker 13: about you. We're all thinking and praying about you, and
- 15:11Speaker 13: be glad when you're back to one hundred percent, which
- 15:13Speaker 13: we know will be soon.
- 15:15Speaker 5: Sure, And uh, I'm over the moon on the draft.
- 15:19Speaker 13: Man, I mean I just yeah, I mean, I mean,
- 15:22Speaker 13: you got the guy Booker, the stuff he said. I
- 15:24Speaker 13: mean what he's going to be a day one star.
- 15:27Speaker 13: He's gonna he's gonna pull into Zach spot day one.
- 15:32Speaker 13: I believe the running back Blue from what I understand,
- 15:36Speaker 13: he is super fast. You got from another show I
- 15:42Speaker 13: was watching. They were saying that that cornerback they got
- 15:45Speaker 13: in the third round is before his injury. He was
- 15:48Speaker 13: going to be a top half of the first round pick.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 15:52Speaker 13: So I mean, I mean, then the defense, I mean
- 15:57Speaker 13: I love it. I mean I got some high expectations.
- 16:01Speaker 13: I'm I mean I want I watched or listen to
- 16:04Speaker 13: the whole draft and then checked everything and and and
- 16:07Speaker 13: then also I wanted to say, the whole storyline team thing. Yeah,
- 16:13Speaker 13: getting the yetty is kind of like the.
- 16:16Speaker 5: Cherry on top.
- 16:17Speaker 10: Yeah, it's great.
- 16:19Speaker 13: Uh, I'll be able to every Sunday wear my storyline
- 16:22Speaker 13: shirt and and my my storyline have my my yetti.
- 16:26Speaker 13: But I mean just you, you know, calling my name out,
- 16:31Speaker 13: say I was I was on the first team and
- 16:34Speaker 13: everything I mean, and talking to you and having all
- 16:38Speaker 13: the uh the Cowboys fans on here with and listen.
- 16:42Speaker 13: I mean that that's the best part to me.
- 16:44Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I appreciate that, Michael. Thanks for saying that
- 16:47Speaker 1: makes us feel great about what we're doing and what
- 16:50Speaker 1: we've created. And you guys have just taken the ball
- 16:53Speaker 1: and just ran with it. Really we just kind of
- 16:55Speaker 1: lobbed it up there, and you guys have taken it
- 16:57Speaker 1: and to another level. So it's been so much fun
- 17:01Speaker 1: to be a part of it. And and and and
- 17:03Speaker 1: you know, to watch you guys kind of uh you know,
- 17:06Speaker 1: like have friends all over the country, all over the world.
- 17:10Speaker 1: It's pretty awesome.
- 17:11Speaker 13: So so yeah, just love to fat you and Chris
- 17:16Speaker 13: y'all are doing this. And I mean it's just nice
- 17:20Speaker 13: to be able to you know, get your your thoughts
- 17:22Speaker 13: and stuff in. It's just you know, during the whole season. Okay,
- 17:25Speaker 13: you gotta wait a Wednesday.
- 17:26Speaker 10: Yeah, here we go, Here we go.
- 17:29Speaker 3: But that's all I had.
- 17:31Speaker 1: I appreciate, appreciate that you gotta here we go from Chris.
- 17:35Speaker 1: That's awesome. As as he was talking about in the
- 17:39Speaker 1: first you know, Savone Ravel I think that's how you
- 17:44Speaker 1: say his name. But but he's the East Carolina corner
- 17:48Speaker 1: back got hurt. And every injury is different, every rehab
- 17:52Speaker 1: is different, every everybody that comes back. But you know,
- 17:56Speaker 1: typically there's a there's a window of a timeline that's
- 17:59Speaker 1: about the same and then certain situations depending on how
- 18:03Speaker 1: much you know what the surgery was done, when the
- 18:05Speaker 1: surgery was done and all that. You know, he got
- 18:10Speaker 1: hurt in week three of the of the college season
- 18:12Speaker 1: last year, and he's doing well and then and and
- 18:16Speaker 1: he says he'll be ready for the start of training camp.
- 18:18Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys are saying he'll probably start off
- 18:22Speaker 1: on pop pup, but you can come off with that
- 18:25Speaker 1: at any time. But their goals that haven't ready for
- 18:29Speaker 1: week one, I mean, that's that's the goal. If you
- 18:32Speaker 1: go back to week three of the twenty twenty three season,
- 18:38Speaker 1: that's when remember if that's when Trevon Diggs got hurt
- 18:41Speaker 1: against Arizona before the Arizona game in practice, just like
- 18:44Speaker 1: Ravel got hurt in practice, which is he hate to
- 18:47Speaker 1: see that. I hate to see it anytime, but certainly
- 18:49Speaker 1: in a practice. But so Diggs gets hurt in practice
- 18:52Speaker 1: misses the rest of the year. You know, he was
- 18:54Speaker 1: ready for the first game, and he played the first
- 18:56Speaker 1: game against Cleveland, got an interception, so you know that's
- 19:01Speaker 1: that's the plan is hoping to get him back. Now,
- 19:04Speaker 1: this would be getting him for Week one, which would
- 19:07Speaker 1: be his NFL debut. He's ever played in the NFL before,
- 19:11Speaker 1: so a little different than a guy like Digs that
- 19:13Speaker 1: had played and had you know, played in some preseason games,
- 19:17Speaker 1: played in a lot of games, and so we can
- 19:19Speaker 1: get back into the flow of it. So they're not
- 19:21Speaker 1: going to rush him back, but talent wise, this was
- 19:24Speaker 1: a this was a really good player that was going
- 19:27Speaker 1: to probably be a first round pick. And so that's
- 19:31Speaker 1: that's the Cowboys way. That's that's the usually we've seen
- 19:34Speaker 1: it in the second round. Jerry did it this year
- 19:36Speaker 1: in the third round. It's the Cowboys special though, And
- 19:39Speaker 1: and they're they're trying to get value as much value
- 19:41Speaker 1: as you possibly can, and they they feel like they
- 19:44Speaker 1: have it with uh with Revel. All right, let's go
- 19:47Speaker 1: to Casey Joe. He's in Kansas City, of course. What's up?
- 19:52Speaker 14: Good morning, miss Treatman. How are you doing today, sir?
- 19:55Speaker 1: Good?
- 19:55Speaker 14: How are you doing good? Excited about the draft? I was,
- 19:58Speaker 14: and bringing on mister Blue, those legs and that speed.
- 20:02Speaker 14: I just can't wait to see him on the field.
- 20:04Speaker 1: Right.
- 20:05Speaker 14: And then Donovan Raku, is that how you say his
- 20:09Speaker 14: name is?
- 20:10Speaker 1: As a rock?
- 20:12Speaker 8: Right?
- 20:12Speaker 14: That that man right there. I wasn't really excited at
- 20:15Speaker 14: first until I heard the story where he was at
- 20:17Speaker 14: his place and he was among Eagle fans and he
- 20:21Speaker 14: told them all to get that stuff off because now
- 20:24Speaker 14: he's a cowboy. I really thought that was funny, and
- 20:26Speaker 14: I think now his family might become cowboy fans.
- 20:28Speaker 1: What do you think well, I mean I would they
- 20:31Speaker 1: will see how how much they they love him. I
- 20:33Speaker 1: mean I would think that they would become Cowboys fans.
- 20:37Speaker 1: But because he you know, he's going to get some
- 20:39Speaker 1: money now, He's probably going to see how much they
- 20:41Speaker 1: he wants to, uh, he wants to be a part
- 20:43Speaker 1: of the inner circle. No, I you know, that's always
- 20:47Speaker 1: a tough one. I'm sure. I mean I remember Sean
- 20:49Speaker 1: Lee telling a story about Steeler fans and how you
- 20:52Speaker 1: know he went over to the Cowboys And it's not easy.
- 20:54Speaker 1: I mean, there's no doubt about it if you're you're
- 20:56Speaker 1: a fan of a team but for so long. But
- 20:59Speaker 1: you know what I like about it as a Roku
- 21:01Speaker 1: is the production. I mean, he had thirty sacks in
- 21:05Speaker 1: four seasons at Boston College. Thirty sacks, I mean sixteen
- 21:08Speaker 1: and a half this past year. He lives in the
- 21:11Speaker 1: backfield forty five tackles for losses. That's what I like
- 21:15Speaker 1: is that he knows how to ben to get around
- 21:17Speaker 1: that edge and make plays. So yeah, that I wasn't
- 21:23Speaker 1: extremely excited about that because I just didn't know. I
- 21:25Speaker 1: didn't know much about him. But when you just look
- 21:28Speaker 1: at the production, it's certainly there.
- 21:30Speaker 14: Right, Well, I didn't have much to say. I just
- 21:33Speaker 14: wanted to tell you good morning, and I'm glad we
- 21:35Speaker 14: got those players. Have a great day, miss Treatman, all.
- 21:39Speaker 1: Right, thank you, you have a great day as well.
- 21:40Speaker 1: Case Joe, he's in Kansas City. So now I'm asking
- 21:46Speaker 1: I'm asking Joe to hand the phone over because he's
- 21:49Speaker 1: probably sitting right next to Brian. Hand the phone over
- 21:52Speaker 1: to Brian, who's also in Kansas City. Brian, what's up?
- 21:55Speaker 12: Good morning, mister Eatman.
- 21:57Speaker 5: How are you man?
- 21:57Speaker 3: Good?
- 21:58Speaker 1: How are you doing? I don't know why that is,
- 22:00Speaker 1: but it seems like y'all both call like this.
- 22:02Speaker 5: That's weird.
- 22:02Speaker 1: It is kind of weird. It is weird unless y'all
- 22:04Speaker 1: are sitting right next to each other. But no, there's
- 22:06Speaker 1: no way, there's no way.
- 22:08Speaker 5: No, no.
- 22:08Speaker 12: I never met him, and being started being started laughing
- 22:12Speaker 12: as soon as he realized it was me. He's like, Okay,
- 22:14Speaker 12: this is gonna be funny.
- 22:15Speaker 1: It is. So anyways, another first team All storyline caller.
- 22:22Speaker 1: I think you called before I announced the team on Friday.
- 22:25Speaker 1: I didn't really want to get ahead of myself, but
- 22:27Speaker 1: congratations on that. Thank you, thank you for all the
- 22:30Speaker 1: support that you've shown. That's two years in a row
- 22:33Speaker 1: for you, Brian, So thank you so much. You're one
- 22:36Speaker 1: of those people that really helped us take this off
- 22:38Speaker 1: the ground, and so I appreciate that.
- 22:40Speaker 9: Hey man, I've loved it every minute of it, absolutely
- 22:44Speaker 9: every I can't thank you guys enough for making a
- 22:47Speaker 9: show that we can be a part of. It is
- 22:50Speaker 9: just something you're dad.
- 22:53Speaker 12: If I could, if I'm not Catholic, but if I
- 22:55Speaker 12: was Catholic, I would put him in for a sainthood.
- 23:00Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 23:00Speaker 1: Well I don't know about that, but uh no, he's
- 23:03Speaker 1: he's certainly proud of that, and and uh, you know,
- 23:07Speaker 1: it was a great idea. He watches it religiously. Uh
- 23:10Speaker 1: he's he's you know, he really is excited about it.
- 23:14Speaker 1: And and you know, he he loves the show. He
- 23:17Speaker 1: just thinks it's it's been better than we even both
- 23:19Speaker 1: imagined it could be. And I know Derek has said
- 23:22Speaker 1: that too. Derek was a little lukewarm to it at
- 23:24Speaker 1: first because it's new, it's different, something we haven't done,
- 23:27Speaker 1: you know. But he thought that I could, I could help,
- 23:31Speaker 1: you know, carry this thing. And and I never thought
- 23:34Speaker 1: that that that beam would would be able to take
- 23:37Speaker 1: it to another level like he has and with all
- 23:39Speaker 1: this stuff on his plate. So really we're you know,
- 23:42Speaker 1: we're having a nice off here. But I mean, honestly,
- 23:44Speaker 1: it's been it's been fun, it's been awesome, and let's
- 23:47Speaker 1: keep it going.
- 23:48Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 23:48Speaker 12: I was really impressed. Beam did a great job at
- 23:51Speaker 12: making it work during training camp.
- 23:53Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 23:53Speaker 5: I didn't think there was any.
- 23:54Speaker 10: Chance of that.
- 23:55Speaker 1: Yes, I mean that's why you know, he's like, he
- 23:58Speaker 1: goes to was it there's a convention it every year,
- 24:02Speaker 1: you know, and it called n ab out in Vegas,
- 24:06Speaker 1: and he goes every year. And he went out there
- 24:08Speaker 1: two years ago and says, I'm going out there to
- 24:10Speaker 1: find out a way to get phone calls on the show.
- 24:13Speaker 1: That's what I'm going to do. And he did and
- 24:16Speaker 1: we had we had a call, We had calls last year.
- 24:18Speaker 1: It was it was awesome. I would imagine we'll have
- 24:21Speaker 1: something like that this year, if not even better. So
- 24:24Speaker 1: it's all it's just the show just keeps getting better
- 24:26Speaker 1: and better.
- 24:27Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 24:27Speaker 12: Absolutely, man, you guys are done phenomenal.
- 24:30Speaker 5: That's great.
- 24:31Speaker 12: Hey, going back to the draft, you know, I already
- 24:34Speaker 12: talked to you on Friday, so you know I'm over
- 24:36Speaker 12: the moon with anything in the trenches. Yea, then give
- 24:39Speaker 12: me Booker. And you know, I wonder how many times
- 24:43Speaker 12: have we heard Nate from Frisco say the offensive line
- 24:47Speaker 12: changed when Eric Williams got there, you know, And listening
- 24:52Speaker 12: to Booker say he wants to see the light go
- 24:54Speaker 12: out of somebody's eyes sounds to me. I never heard
- 24:57Speaker 12: Eric Williams be interviewed.
- 24:58Speaker 5: You know, this is really notties.
- 25:00Speaker 12: We didn't have the internet like we do now. I
- 25:02Speaker 12: don't know what he sounded like to you guys, because
- 25:05Speaker 12: you know, nowadays we can watch all this stuff. In
- 25:07Speaker 12: those days, we couldn't you know what he you know,
- 25:10Speaker 12: you know, you weren't working there in the ninety and
- 25:13Speaker 12: in the ninety three season. But but you know, maybe
- 25:16Speaker 12: you've met him since then.
- 25:17Speaker 5: I have no idea, but.
- 25:18Speaker 1: I've got I got an Eric Williams story of the
- 25:21Speaker 1: year I was here in ninety nine. But I'll let
- 25:22Speaker 1: you finish and then then I'll tell that.
- 25:24Speaker 12: Yeah, oh that's great, Yeah, yeah, that's great. You know,
- 25:28Speaker 12: but that's when I listened to him. I'm like him,
- 25:31Speaker 12: maybe this is it because we've got some talent on
- 25:34Speaker 12: the offensive line there, you know, bbe for every every
- 25:38Speaker 12: bit of guff you want to give the Cowboys that
- 25:40Speaker 12: Geyton has not been a Day one starter, Let's remember
- 25:45Speaker 12: that Phoebe was, and those two guys are forever tied
- 25:48Speaker 12: together because of how we got that draft pick. Right,
- 25:51Speaker 12: So remember, you know, the Cowboys have done overall very
- 25:56Speaker 12: well with offensive lineman and this guy. When I watch
- 26:00Speaker 12: the haters, I watched a guy yesterday for like thirty
- 26:03Speaker 12: seconds say oh, you don't take a guard in the
- 26:06Speaker 12: first round, and then right after that he says, but
- 26:09Speaker 12: I think he'll be a Pro Bowl player. Like really, Like,
- 26:12Speaker 12: how do you say those two things in the same.
- 26:14Speaker 3: Right, right?
- 26:15Speaker 5: Right?
- 26:15Speaker 1: If you think if you think you got a Pro
- 26:17Speaker 1: Bowl player, then it was a great first round pick.
- 26:19Speaker 4: No doubt.
- 26:20Speaker 12: Absolutely. Now my concerns are two things. I didn't want
- 26:24Speaker 12: hurt guys again, and I had a little PTSD when
- 26:28Speaker 12: they were saying, but doctor Cooper did a surgery, so
- 26:30Speaker 12: we know everything about it because that's what we heard
- 26:33Speaker 12: when we picked Jalen Smith, right, and you know, but
- 26:37Speaker 12: they're two different people. You know, we'll see what happens
- 26:39Speaker 12: with him. The other concern I had with him is
- 26:41Speaker 12: he only has really one year of starting experience, So
- 26:45Speaker 12: you know, we'll say, obviously they love his traits, and
- 26:48Speaker 12: doctor Cooper obviously did give him a glowing report if
- 26:51Speaker 12: they picked him. Sure, so you know we're hopeful there.
- 26:54Speaker 12: I also not I'm not a big fan of little
- 26:57Speaker 12: running packs, so but it is what it is. What
- 27:01Speaker 12: I will say about him is he's got real speed.
- 27:05Speaker 12: I mean, we haven't, you know, other than Cabonte Turpin.
- 27:08Speaker 12: I don't think there's anybody that's even close to him
- 27:11Speaker 12: in speed, So you know, I'm glad for that. And
- 27:15Speaker 12: then the last one I wanted to talk about and
- 27:17Speaker 12: just and maybe you can help me with the pronunciation.
- 27:19Speaker 12: How do you pronounce the seventh round? Pick the big guy's.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Name, the King King Mesoto, the other one.
- 27:27Speaker 12: Oh, j Toya Toya?
- 27:30Speaker 1: I think ktoya.
- 27:31Speaker 12: Yeah, okay, I've heard a couple of different pronunciations.
- 27:34Speaker 1: That's what I think it is. But okay, I'm not
- 27:37Speaker 1: I'm not one hundred percent sure. I guess I thought
- 27:39Speaker 1: it was Toya, but again, I don't know. I don't
- 27:42Speaker 1: know one hundred percent yet. We'll see. Uh yeah, that's
- 27:45Speaker 1: one of those questions that might be a question we
- 27:47Speaker 1: ask a lot of these guys. Uh, how do you
- 27:50Speaker 1: pronounce your name?
- 27:51Speaker 10: We say it right, so don't don't.
- 27:53Speaker 12: Hey, did you see did you see the call with
- 27:56Speaker 12: him and Zack Waltuck?
- 27:58Speaker 1: Yes?
- 27:58Speaker 12: Did do you hear about it? Don't ask him that?
- 28:01Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 28:02Speaker 12: So yeah, but that's that's also even though he's a
- 28:05Speaker 12: seventh round pick and I know we have, we ended
- 28:08Speaker 12: up getting the guy back from last year too, right,
- 28:10Speaker 12: Justin Rodgers. Didn't he come back from Cincinnati at some point? Yes,
- 28:15Speaker 12: so I got some hope that you know, we got
- 28:17Speaker 12: some competition for Ozzie.
- 28:19Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 28:20Speaker 12: Yeah, let's see what we got. Anyway, I can't wait
- 28:23Speaker 12: to hear your Eric Williams story, brother, And good to
- 28:26Speaker 12: talk to you this morning.
- 28:27Speaker 1: Thanks Brian. Is you brought up Justin Rodgers and I
- 28:32Speaker 1: don't know what they're gonna do. Just remember that they
- 28:34Speaker 1: are going to release five players from the team and
- 28:37Speaker 1: I don't know where he fits on that, but they
- 28:39Speaker 1: did draft two defensive tackles in the seventh round. So
- 28:42Speaker 1: and he was the seventh round from last year that
- 28:43Speaker 1: they cut, brought to another team, came back different scheme.
- 28:46Speaker 1: By the way, this is not you know a guy
- 28:48Speaker 1: from matt everflus his scheme. So I wouldn't. I wouldn't
- 28:53Speaker 1: think Justin Rodgers is gonna you know, would I wouldn't
- 28:56Speaker 1: go get a Justin Rodgers jersey. But but I don't know,
- 28:58Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, what they're gonna do at
- 29:01Speaker 1: that position, but they do have have a few decisions
- 29:05Speaker 1: to make there. All right, let's go to the Eric
- 29:08Speaker 1: Williams story. What I was going to say, because he's
- 29:10Speaker 1: talking about just you know, he was comparing to Tyler
- 29:12Speaker 1: Brooker just have main Streek nasty player Eric Williams. When
- 29:17Speaker 1: I got here ninety nine, I think he had held
- 29:21Speaker 1: out for a little bit and it wasn't at at
- 29:25Speaker 1: training camp for a while, and I remember I had
- 29:29Speaker 1: a couple of Eric Williams story. But I remember late
- 29:32Speaker 1: late in the evening, late afternoon, it was about time
- 29:35Speaker 1: to go home, and we were in between I think
- 29:38Speaker 1: we'd come home for a preseason game. We're going back
- 29:40Speaker 1: to Wichita Falls for training camp, and Jerry Jerry stopped
- 29:43Speaker 1: me in the hallway and said, hey, I got a
- 29:45Speaker 1: story for you. Eric Williams is in the car right
- 29:48Speaker 1: now driving to wich Darl Falls. Will be a practice tomorrow.
- 29:51Speaker 1: And I was able to like, wow, you know, and
- 29:53Speaker 1: I was thanks, Jerry. You know, I went and wrote
- 29:55Speaker 1: the story and all that and got that out there
- 29:57Speaker 1: because he had been he had been a couple of years,
- 30:00Speaker 1: I mean a couple of weeks where he was holding out,
- 30:02Speaker 1: I guess. But another thing about about him is that
- 30:06Speaker 1: ninety nine season, he would wear his his Pro Bowl
- 30:11Speaker 1: shorts that he got from the ninety four ninety five
- 30:14Speaker 1: Pro Bowl or whatever, and he would wear them around
- 30:16Speaker 1: as motivation for where he wanted to be. Speaking of motivation,
- 30:20Speaker 1: he would always also take the hat of the other
- 30:22Speaker 1: team and put it in his locker all week long.
- 30:24Speaker 1: Cardinals hat, Giants hat, Eagles hat in his locker all
- 30:28Speaker 1: week long. When he would go and change that, he
- 30:30Speaker 1: would sit there and see that that other team, and
- 30:33Speaker 1: sometimes he would wear it. You know, I see him
- 30:35Speaker 1: wearing Eagles hat going around. But that was kind of
- 30:38Speaker 1: his way to kind of get motivated. So all right,
- 30:41Speaker 1: let's go to Matt in Oklahoma.
- 30:44Speaker 10: Matt, how are you doing good?
- 30:46Speaker 1: How you doing Matt?
- 30:47Speaker 10: Thanks for I don't know a problem. Just I'm really
- 30:51Speaker 10: excited about this year's draft. Yeah, I mean everybody's been
- 30:54Speaker 10: talking about, you know, the first four rounds. I want
- 30:58Speaker 10: to talk about a couple of late round guys. The
- 31:00Speaker 10: tackle you got in the sixth round and that Toya
- 31:03Speaker 10: Yeah all right, the tackle on the sixth round out
- 31:06Speaker 10: of Oregon. Dude, the fighter Cornel Cornelia. Yeah, yeah, he's
- 31:12Speaker 10: a fighter. I think if he gets his hand right,
- 31:15Speaker 10: because if like, he'll punch and sometimes he'll miss with
- 31:19Speaker 10: his punch, but he keeps fighting. He finds a way
- 31:21Speaker 10: to He only gave up three sacks in his entire
- 31:24Speaker 10: college career. I think that if Steel gets hurt, he
- 31:29Speaker 10: better watch out because I think that kid could take
- 31:32Speaker 10: his job. And that Toya kid out of U. C
- 31:38Speaker 10: l A.
- 31:40Speaker 16: Yeah, Mazzi needed some competition. Yeah, I think that that
- 31:47Speaker 16: kid could light a fire underneath Mozzi's you know what,
- 31:50Speaker 16: yeah uh, and probably needs it so we can get
- 31:55Speaker 16: the best out of him, get that first round talent
- 31:58Speaker 16: that they saw.
- 31:59Speaker 1: Yeah, hundred percent that they've got to They've got to
- 32:01Speaker 1: figure out a way to get Mazzi Smith to that
- 32:03Speaker 1: next level whether and that that should be something that
- 32:07Speaker 1: would be a big priority for Matt Everflus and his
- 32:11Speaker 1: and his staff and his d line staff to get
- 32:13Speaker 1: get these guys playing at a high level. But you're right,
- 32:16Speaker 1: they're real excited about those two seventh rounders. Now they're
- 32:18Speaker 1: they're seventh rounders for a reason, but they they are
- 32:21Speaker 1: happy about the scheme. And that's the thing about defense.
- 32:23Speaker 1: Sometimes these guys have visions for players to be in
- 32:27Speaker 1: their scheme and and it may not be what other
- 32:29Speaker 1: other teams think of him, but they certainly like them.
- 32:33Speaker 10: I thought I heard somewhere that they had a fourth
- 32:36Speaker 10: round greade on that Toya.
- 32:38Speaker 1: I think that sounds right. I mean, I know, I
- 32:40Speaker 1: know they stuck to their board, so in the seventh round,
- 32:42Speaker 1: I mean they they had guys that they really liked there.
- 32:45Speaker 1: So yeah, they stuck to the board for sure.
- 32:47Speaker 10: The entire draft, the entire draft is now that that
- 32:50Speaker 10: was completely different because I watch the draft every year
- 32:53Speaker 10: and it's just like, really, you reach for that guy,
- 32:56Speaker 10: but not this year. This year is like okay, yeah
- 33:00Speaker 10: I agree with that. Yeah, oh wow, okay, you got
- 33:03Speaker 10: him there.
- 33:03Speaker 1: Yeah. It was the It was the good and bad
- 33:07Speaker 1: part about having so many needs. When you do have
- 33:10Speaker 1: so many needs, that you can just stick to the
- 33:12Speaker 1: board and he's gonna fit somewhere. This guy will fit somewhere,
- 33:15Speaker 1: And that's that's pretty much what happened. So uh. And
- 33:19Speaker 1: they also had a plan. They still have a plan
- 33:21Speaker 1: for a wide receiver, Like they knew that going in
- 33:24Speaker 1: of what they were going to do, and they didn't
- 33:27Speaker 1: do anything beforehand because you're like, what if we get
- 33:29Speaker 1: mc millan, that changes some things on who we might
- 33:32Speaker 1: trade for, who we might bring in. But now that
- 33:35Speaker 1: that didn't happen, and you're starting to get third, fourth,
- 33:37Speaker 1: fifth round, you're like, you know, all we're doing at
- 33:40Speaker 1: this point is bringing in another Mingo, bringing in another
- 33:43Speaker 1: Jalen Tolbert. Let's let's let's wait. And so you know,
- 33:47Speaker 1: it was first or second round. If it didn't happen,
- 33:49Speaker 1: then they're probably gonna go to the plan B, which
- 33:52Speaker 1: is somebody in free agency or trade.
- 33:55Speaker 10: Yeah, and I keep hearing the MARII coming back, you
- 33:58Speaker 10: know potential, and I would I wouldn't be opposed to that.
- 34:02Speaker 10: I mean the best part of his career is when
- 34:04Speaker 10: he played with DAGs. Yeah, so I wouldn't be opposed
- 34:08Speaker 10: to it.
- 34:09Speaker 1: But well, it'd be a different you know, if that happens.
- 34:12Speaker 1: Obviously it's a different situation than when he was here before.
- 34:16Speaker 1: Different money, different role, different everything, but probably a different number.
- 34:20Speaker 1: I mean, everything would be different. But but I think
- 34:22Speaker 1: what you want is you want a guy that that
- 34:25Speaker 1: can hurt teams if they're gonna if they're gonna take
- 34:27Speaker 1: away cd uh. You got a guy on the other
- 34:30Speaker 1: side that can do some damage, you know. And he
- 34:33Speaker 1: did have a two hundred yard game last year. He's
- 34:36Speaker 1: not as the most consistent and if you play fantasy football,
- 34:38Speaker 1: you probably know you had him and you didn't start
- 34:41Speaker 1: them and whatever it is, I get it.
- 34:43Speaker 10: But you know, a lot of people's complaints about him
- 34:46Speaker 10: is he does disappear, and it seems like he disappears
- 34:49Speaker 10: more on the road than he does at home, which
- 34:51Speaker 10: I mean is a valid point. I have seen that,
- 34:54Speaker 10: but I mean, you know, when he's on, he is on.
- 34:57Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you don't want your number one to disappe
- 35:00Speaker 1: here if you know your number two and three that
- 35:03Speaker 1: that's kind of what happens you take take them out
- 35:05Speaker 1: of the game.
- 35:05Speaker 10: So yeah, all right, man, appreciate the appreciate you with tanks.

- 37:38Speaker 5: What's going on?
- 37:39Speaker 3: Man?
- 37:39Speaker 1: How are you doing?
- 37:41Speaker 5: I'm doing great. I appreciate the honorable mention. Didn't get
- 37:45Speaker 5: a tumbler this year, but that's okay. I'm really honored
- 37:49Speaker 5: to be honorably mentioned. Man, Thanks for that.

- 37:54Speaker 1: I'll tell you this, if anybody doesn't, I'll give you
- 37:57Speaker 1: about a month or two. If you don't send in
- 37:59Speaker 1: your stuff, we have extras. I had extra T shirts
- 38:02Speaker 1: from last year. I have an extra T shirt, So
- 38:05Speaker 1: you know, if it doesn't, if we don't, if we don't,
- 38:08Speaker 1: if we have some extras, you were right there, So
- 38:11Speaker 1: holler at us and we'll see what we can make
- 38:13Speaker 1: something work.
- 38:15Speaker 5: Right on, right on. Well, I'm uh really stoked about
- 38:20Speaker 5: the draft. You know, we've been talking about it a
- 38:24Speaker 5: lot on the storyliners for them too, you know, on
- 38:27Speaker 5: X or whatever. And we finally got to look at
- 38:32Speaker 5: what this team's gonna look like. We've been speculating, right
- 38:35Speaker 5: because it's a new coaching staff. You know, what's offense
- 38:38Speaker 5: gonna look like, what's defense gonna look like? And I've
- 38:41Speaker 5: been saying all along, until we see what they draft,
- 38:45Speaker 5: you know, we're kind of just guessing, right. But now
- 38:51Speaker 5: now that we've got the draft in, this coaching staff
- 38:55Speaker 5: ain't messing around in the trenches anymore.
- 38:57Speaker 2: Man.
- 38:58Speaker 5: Uh. It seems like they're really getting serious about commanding
- 39:04Speaker 5: and controlling the line of scrimmage. And I think that's
- 39:07Speaker 5: been a big problem obviously. We've all know that on
- 39:09Speaker 5: both sides of the ball. Even the three years that
- 39:13Speaker 5: we went twelve and four that was kind of our
- 39:18Speaker 5: Achilles Hill. We were more of a finesse team, I
- 39:20Speaker 5: would say, than a than a you know, hitch you
- 39:24Speaker 5: in the mouth, right, you know, type blue collar team
- 39:29Speaker 5: if you will. So, yeah, I'm just kind of stoked.
- 39:33Speaker 5: I think the best pick of the draft was Revel.
- 39:36Speaker 5: I think that guy from what I've been hearing, you know,
- 39:40Speaker 5: he would have been top ten pick if not for
- 39:43Speaker 5: the knee and I'm excited to see, you know, what
- 39:49Speaker 5: he'll do. I'm kinda scared about the beginning of the
- 39:55Speaker 5: year because we have so many people like him, Diggs
- 40:00Speaker 5: and a lot of our secondary banged up and then
- 40:03Speaker 5: over shown as well. You know, it seems like this
- 40:07Speaker 5: team might not really hit its stride till December, maybe,
- 40:11Speaker 5: you know. And I'm just wondering your thoughts on that
- 40:14Speaker 5: and if we can keep it together and tell some
- 40:17Speaker 5: of these you know, really superstars come back, because these
- 40:21Speaker 5: are some of our better playmakers on the team that
- 40:24Speaker 5: are hurt right now. And so that's what kind of
- 40:27Speaker 5: worries me. And also your thoughts on the receiver looks
- 40:34Speaker 5: like they're kind of like kicking around Cooper or Keyan Allen,
- 40:39Speaker 5: I would say, I mean, I think all of us
- 40:43Speaker 5: would say Cooper if he you know, if he hasn't
- 40:45Speaker 5: lost the step just because of the continuity and everything.
- 40:49Speaker 5: But yeah, just I wonder what your thoughts are there, bro.
- 40:53Speaker 1: All right, thank you appreciate that. You know, I think
- 40:57Speaker 1: that this team has to get off to a good start,
- 41:01Speaker 1: you know, during the season, So I don't you know
- 41:05Speaker 1: that we we've we've seen a lot of injuries around
- 41:08Speaker 1: this team, and and nobody seems to give them a
- 41:10Speaker 1: pass for that, uh for you know, it never happens.
- 41:14Speaker 1: You don't get excused. You know, there's no excuse for
- 41:16Speaker 1: for the injury situation. So when you think about what
- 41:20Speaker 1: where they are going to be health wise, Sure, there
- 41:24Speaker 1: there's some guys coming back from injury, but I think
- 41:28Speaker 1: they should be able to go win games, you know,
- 41:30Speaker 1: with with what they've got. I mean, if they should
- 41:32Speaker 1: have Mike ready to roll dak CD, that's that's kind
- 41:36Speaker 1: of the core. That's where it starts. And then and
- 41:38Speaker 1: then from there, uh, you know, they'll have some some
- 41:41Speaker 1: other guys now now obviously you know, overshown, digs, revel,
- 41:47Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll we'll see about them. But but I
- 41:50Speaker 1: think this team to be a good football team this year.
- 41:53Speaker 1: They're going to have to get off to a good start,
- 41:55Speaker 1: you know. And this is new, new everything, new coach, uh,
- 41:59Speaker 1: new coaching staff. A lot of times you you see
- 42:03Speaker 1: some success early and they need that, they need that.
- 42:07Speaker 1: This they're all, you know, they got a lot of positivity.
- 42:10Speaker 1: Everybody's excited about what we're seeing out of Shoddy and
- 42:13Speaker 1: everything and and the coaches. But they haven't lost the game.
- 42:17Speaker 1: You know, as soon as you start losing some games,
- 42:19Speaker 1: especially a close game, and people start questioning whether whether
- 42:23Speaker 1: or not you know what you're doing, and then that
- 42:25Speaker 1: that'll change some things. So but right now things are great.
- 42:28Speaker 1: I think they need they have to have some success
- 42:31Speaker 1: early on to really carry this thing through. All right, Uh,
- 42:36Speaker 1: lines are open, I believe here on a story line
- 42:39Speaker 1: eight eight eight eight five five two two nine seven.
- 42:42Speaker 1: Chris is their caller waiting we open lines. Yeah, I'm sorry.
- 42:46Speaker 1: It's Lewis and Langston. Lewis and Langston. Okay, I see him.
- 42:51Speaker 1: Hey Lewis, how you doing?
- 42:53Speaker 7: Not much?
- 42:54Speaker 4: Man?
- 42:54Speaker 21: Like I told Chris in the background, I appreciate you
- 42:56Speaker 21: all for thinking about me. I didn't get to get home.
- 42:58Speaker 10: Man.
- 42:59Speaker 21: It's you know how hard it is to get on.
- 43:01Speaker 21: Well you don't because you the hoax, but for the
- 43:03Speaker 21: thing hard.
- 43:04Speaker 1: To get I hear it, and I see that the
- 43:07Speaker 1: phones are ringing all the time, and and I know
- 43:10Speaker 1: this when when when we'll have two people on the line,
- 43:12Speaker 1: we have two lines, and when I when I when
- 43:15Speaker 1: somebody hangs up, yeah, and then I see another one
- 43:18Speaker 1: pop up. I know how quickly, uh that that they've
- 43:21Speaker 1: been calling so no, I I know, and I appreciate it.
- 43:25Speaker 21: No, well, I appreciate y'all first off for giving us
- 43:28Speaker 21: a voice, but and I appreciate y'all for vote me
- 43:30Speaker 21: in and and putting me on the first team, and
- 43:33Speaker 21: thank you. Yeah, first appreciate that, and then secondly, I
- 43:37Speaker 21: was trying to call it give a little two cents
- 43:39Speaker 21: about the draft. I watched it. I loved it.
- 43:41Speaker 10: I enjoyed it.
- 43:42Speaker 21: Well, the shador thing kind of that's a whole different story.
- 43:45Speaker 21: But I will say I was a big proponent of
- 43:49Speaker 21: trying to get a big receiver.
- 43:51Speaker 7: I wanted to mc.
- 43:51Speaker 21: Billy and I'm not going yea act like I did mcbilly,
- 43:55Speaker 21: but as you know, as we saw, he was gone.
- 43:58Speaker 21: And I love the way the Dallas I was pivoted
- 44:01Speaker 21: to Jared Jones and them pivoted. They got the big guard, which, hey,
- 44:06Speaker 21: if you don't got if you don't have the receiver,
- 44:08Speaker 21: at least let let the quarterback be standing enough to
- 44:11Speaker 21: throw the ball to somebody. So I appreciate them doing that.
- 44:14Speaker 21: And then I like the being dn cain't never have
- 44:17Speaker 21: enough rusher, So I enjoyed that. I'm not one hundred
- 44:21Speaker 21: percent sure about the corner I say. I mean, I
- 44:23Speaker 21: see a lot of people saying he would have been
- 44:25Speaker 21: at first round draft pick if he wasn't hurt, and
- 44:29Speaker 21: I mean, hey, I appreciate that. But at the same time,
- 44:32Speaker 21: we only got one corner right now at the point, like,
- 44:35Speaker 21: we need corners that can actually get on the field
- 44:37Speaker 21: right now, so I kind of like, I'm worried about that.
- 44:40Speaker 21: But if he can't get on the field, I'm happy
- 44:43Speaker 21: about that, and maybe you can produce like they say
- 44:46Speaker 21: he can. I did want to running back. I know
- 44:49Speaker 21: we got blue and the field offer. I'm not mad
- 44:55Speaker 21: about that. They're a little later around us than I wanted,
- 44:58Speaker 21: but if they can give us good numbers, I'm okay
- 45:01Speaker 21: with that. Plus the guy that we bought in from
- 45:03Speaker 21: free agency. And then my biggest the one draft pick I.
- 45:08Speaker 4: Loved was the big boy.
- 45:09Speaker 21: The big tonguin was Joe Toya. I think, yeah, the
- 45:15Speaker 21: three hundred and forty five. I just need him to
- 45:17Speaker 21: not move just standing there. Don't let nobody move you
- 45:20Speaker 21: out the way, so the run the linebackers can run
- 45:22Speaker 21: around and do whatever. Like I just that right there,
- 45:25Speaker 21: to me was the best draft kick to me, when
- 45:27Speaker 21: you get somebody big like that hopefully and he could
- 45:30Speaker 21: can out. But and I'm I'm not down on my yet.
- 45:34Speaker 21: But if you put those two big boys, that's that's
- 45:36Speaker 21: nine hundred, nine hundred pounds standing there. I just need
- 45:39Speaker 21: them to stand there and not move and let them
- 45:41Speaker 21: don't let nobody run for two hundred yards on you
- 45:45Speaker 21: outside of that, man, I won't hold you too long,
- 45:48Speaker 21: and I'll hang up and listen.
- 45:51Speaker 1: All right, appreciate it, Lewis, thank you for the call.
- 45:55Speaker 1: And you know, the defensive tackle is it was one
- 45:59Speaker 1: of those those needs were uh, I think when Steven
- 46:06Speaker 1: and when they were making the pick. One of the
- 46:08Speaker 1: things that was said, uh, coming out of the war
- 46:10Speaker 1: room was that it scratches a big itch. Okay, and
- 46:15Speaker 1: that's an old school term there, but but it was
- 46:17Speaker 1: a need. It was a need there defensive tackle. That
- 46:19Speaker 1: and they and they and they asked, they waited later
- 46:21Speaker 1: on to do that. They still followed their board, but
- 46:24Speaker 1: defensive tackle was was a need that they they've been
- 46:27Speaker 1: looking at the entire time. And then they went back
- 46:30Speaker 1: and got it in the seventh round with a King
- 46:33Speaker 1: Besote from Maryland. So they they've got some some some
- 46:39Speaker 1: guys that I think are gonna compete for sure a
- 46:41Speaker 1: defensive tackle. But like you said, Mazzi, this is you know,
- 46:45Speaker 1: this is good. They didn't draft another first rounder. But
- 46:48Speaker 1: but but still there'll be competition for him, as there
- 46:52Speaker 1: should be. All right, let's go to Carolina. He's driving
- 46:56Speaker 1: in Peacoast, Texas right now. Carolina. What's up.
- 47:02Speaker 11: Going on?
- 47:04Speaker 1: There? We go? How you doing?
- 47:06Speaker 11: I'm going good? I said, I made the team. Man,
- 47:09Speaker 11: you made the first team, but I didn't make the good.
- 47:12Speaker 1: That's okay, that's okay. You were a late bloomer, man,
- 47:14Speaker 1: you started, you started late. But uh, I mean you were.
- 47:18Speaker 1: You were driving that thing pretty close. You'll be there.
- 47:24Speaker 1: You'll be there next year, for sure. I mean just
- 47:27Speaker 1: too much production there, too much production holds you back.
- 47:31Speaker 11: For sure for sure. How you doing, man? Everything all right?
- 47:34Speaker 1: Yeah, everything's good. What's your thoughts on the draft?
- 47:38Speaker 3: Man?
- 47:38Speaker 10: A couple thoughts?
- 47:39Speaker 11: Man, I don't know if you remember, we had a
- 47:41Speaker 11: conversation a couple of weeks ago. I said, Man, what
- 47:43Speaker 11: about this scenario with us getting the office and I
- 47:47Speaker 11: mean in the first round and then probably getting as
- 47:51Speaker 11: a receiver and free agency. Remember I said that. I said,
- 47:56Speaker 11: that's a big possibility because I don't think that the
- 47:58Speaker 11: guy that we want is going to be there, so
- 48:00Speaker 11: why not just go get shut up some veteran twnent
- 48:03Speaker 11: to hold down the back end and get what you need.
- 48:06Speaker 11: And I think they did a really good job of that.
- 48:08Speaker 11: I mean with the with the second pick, I wasn't
- 48:12Speaker 11: expected that, but I think that you can never have
- 48:15Speaker 11: too many pass rushes, especially how that guy moves. Man,
- 48:18Speaker 11: he seems to already have the skills. Get in on
- 48:22Speaker 11: day one and go do what he needs to do.
- 48:24Speaker 11: And Booker, I think that was a perfect pick. Like
- 48:28Speaker 11: he's not gonna be Zach Martin. We don't know who knows.
- 48:31Speaker 11: He maybe better who. I mean, that's a high, that's
- 48:33Speaker 11: high still in the weeks, but I think it was
- 48:36Speaker 11: a pretty good overroll pick. And I do have one
- 48:38Speaker 11: thing that I don't see a lot of buzz about.
- 48:42Speaker 10: Now.
- 48:42Speaker 11: Maybe it's not because i'm vice for because I'm from
- 48:44Speaker 11: South Carolina, but I don't think people are giving this
- 48:47Speaker 11: guy Ma sat MafA Phil Maufa enough credit to what
- 48:52Speaker 11: he's put down on the football field. I know it's
- 48:54Speaker 11: the ACC, but believe it's not. The ACC is getting
- 48:57Speaker 11: stronger and stronger every year.
- 49:00Speaker 1: Well, I mean he was a seventh round pick. I mean,
- 49:02Speaker 1: like like, it's not about it's not about where, whether
- 49:06Speaker 1: he was a good player from a good conference, good
- 49:08Speaker 1: team and all that. It's just that that every team
- 49:12Speaker 1: in the league had chances six or seven eight times
- 49:16Speaker 1: to take them and they didn't. So that's any seventh rounder.
- 49:19Speaker 1: But I said it earlier. I mean I watched some highlights.
- 49:22Speaker 1: I've impressed. He looked better than what I would have
- 49:25Speaker 1: thought a seventh round running back looks like. But I
- 49:27Speaker 1: don't know the details of why he didn't why he fell.
- 49:31Speaker 11: I know why why because last year he played with
- 49:36Speaker 11: the injury and he played the whole season. If you
- 49:39Speaker 11: asked me, we could have beat Texas in the playoffs
- 49:41Speaker 11: if he was one hundred percent healthy. But I mean,
- 49:45Speaker 11: so Dallas injury, he had a souldier injury.
- 49:47Speaker 5: Yeah, he had a soulder injury.
- 49:48Speaker 11: I mean he played through it the whole year. That
- 49:52Speaker 11: shows some toughness.
- 49:53Speaker 1: Right there, man, definitely, And it's a sacrifice. It's a
- 49:57Speaker 1: sacrifice to do that that not everybody's doing, especially and
- 50:00Speaker 1: now with college kids making money and and they also
- 50:04Speaker 1: have a lot of people in there in their ear
- 50:06Speaker 1: like as far as agents wise, because college kids now
- 50:09Speaker 1: obviously have agents and to say, hey, don't ruin your
- 50:13Speaker 1: your your draft stock by playing hurt, putting bad tape
- 50:17Speaker 1: out there. And so for him if that is the case,
- 50:21Speaker 1: and for him to do that, it's a big sacrifice
- 50:23Speaker 1: any any and he got hurt by it, bye, by
- 50:26Speaker 1: falling to the seventh round. But now it's up to
- 50:28Speaker 1: him to to you know, turn that thing around and
- 50:31Speaker 1: show he's gonna get the ball. He's gonna get some
- 50:33Speaker 1: some touches and preseason and we'll see.
- 50:36Speaker 11: It scares me though, man, because now I'm like, dang, dude,
- 50:39Speaker 11: you got it. You gotta show up to so you're
- 50:41Speaker 11: gonna be out the door man, this this is gonna
- 50:44Speaker 11: be your last year.
- 50:45Speaker 1: Of course, I hope he.
- 50:46Speaker 11: I hope he does. You know, put on put put
- 50:49Speaker 11: in some good work to get him in the front running.
- 50:52Speaker 11: But I mean you just never know. And but with
- 50:55Speaker 11: that being said, what do you think about the corner?
- 50:59Speaker 11: I've hurt nothing but good, but he's hurt with there.
- 51:03Speaker 11: What do you think about that?
- 51:05Speaker 1: Thanks? Thanks for the call, Carolina. You you you drive
- 51:07Speaker 1: safe and I always appreciate it. I'll answer that question.
- 51:12Speaker 1: One thing that I think that fans just kind of
- 51:16Speaker 1: overlook sometimes because it's easy to do, very easy to do,
- 51:20Speaker 1: is that these teams are drafting for their franchise. They're
- 51:26Speaker 1: not drafting for twenty twenty five. They're drafting for the franchise.
- 51:30Speaker 1: They know what's there when they draft as Araku, they
- 51:34Speaker 1: know that Dante Fowler and Sam Williams are on one
- 51:38Speaker 1: year deals and Micah, we'll see what happens. I mean,
- 51:42Speaker 1: I think that everyone thinks he's coming back. I'm sure
- 51:44Speaker 1: he probably will, but they know that this is a
- 51:47Speaker 1: good pick for maybe this year, but also next year
- 51:50Speaker 1: as well. Same with with Revel Okay, is he ready
- 51:53Speaker 1: to play Week one? Maybe? Is he gonna be as
- 51:56Speaker 1: good as we think he is this year? Probably not?
- 51:59Speaker 1: But what's up with Diggs? Duran Bland hasn't re signed yet.
- 52:03Speaker 1: You know, you you you got a flyer that they
- 52:06Speaker 1: you know for Elam jyr Elam, that that they've had
- 52:09Speaker 1: a former first round pick, but you know, they've got
- 52:11Speaker 1: to see what works there. So third round if he
- 52:15Speaker 1: doesn't play much this year or some but they think
- 52:18Speaker 1: they've got a first round type corner for next year.
- 52:21Speaker 1: So that's kind of the plan here. This year might
- 52:23Speaker 1: be a gravy year for him. Anything that he does
- 52:26Speaker 1: would be awesome. But but knowing that you have a
- 52:30Speaker 1: chance to solidify your your your cornerback position and with
- 52:34Speaker 1: a first round type pick with with rebel for next year.
- 52:38Speaker 1: So that's that's where that is, and that's when you
- 52:41Speaker 1: always have to decide what round do you want to
- 52:43Speaker 1: sacrifice that for. I think that was the logic with
- 52:45Speaker 1: Jalen Smith. A lot of these second rounders we've seen
- 52:49Speaker 1: is maybe not ready to go so much this year,
- 52:52Speaker 1: but the next year he certainly will be. So that's
- 52:55Speaker 1: kind of the thought there. All right, Chris, we have
- 52:59Speaker 1: another caller on the line. Is so just passing through?
- 53:03Speaker 10: No?
- 53:04Speaker 1: Sorry? Lester le Okay, what's that? Man? Leicester?
- 53:09Speaker 8: Hey, good morning man. I got a few things I
- 53:13Speaker 8: want to say. First of all, I want to say
- 53:16Speaker 8: my prayers go out and my blessings go out to Randy.
- 53:20Speaker 8: Get well soon, brother. I also want to thank you
- 53:24Speaker 8: guys for putting me on the first team offensive and
- 53:29Speaker 8: defensive line.
- 53:30Speaker 7: It looks like.
- 53:30Speaker 8: They're building it up. I'm loving it. I love that guy.
- 53:35Speaker 21: Toya.
- 53:36Speaker 8: In the seventh round one question of the U d
- 53:43Speaker 8: f a's did they pick up any defensive tackles in
- 53:47Speaker 8: that that time, because I know they picked up some
- 53:51Speaker 8: some people on the team, but I couldn't. I wasn't
- 53:54Speaker 8: sure if they picked up any dts.
- 53:59Speaker 1: I'll be honest, I haven't necessarily seen that whole list,
- 54:03Speaker 1: uh for the defensive tackles. I know we we we
- 54:06Speaker 1: wrote that. I can't. I haven't studied it. I've seen
- 54:08Speaker 1: some of the names. Nobody kind of popped out for me.
- 54:13Speaker 1: We do have it up on our website. I can
- 54:15Speaker 1: maybe pull it up. I don't remember if we had
- 54:18Speaker 1: if there was a defensive tackle on there or not.
- 54:21Speaker 8: Well, I think I think they did her. Hey, they
- 54:25Speaker 8: are building up my offensive defensive line peaple.
- 54:28Speaker 10: Yes.
- 54:28Speaker 8: Draft overall, I think they did a job, A minus
- 54:34Speaker 8: a job Okay. And as far as that corner, you know,
- 54:38Speaker 8: I played corner.
- 54:39Speaker 3: In high school.
- 54:40Speaker 1: The guy's good man.
- 54:41Speaker 8: I mean, I know he was hurt last year or
- 54:43Speaker 8: as part of the year or whatever. I've watched a
- 54:46Speaker 8: little bit of his uh technique because I look for technique.
- 54:50Speaker 8: I don't just look for the flashy plays and all that.
- 54:53Speaker 8: He is sound technique, man, He's good A right, that
- 54:56Speaker 8: a p Well, I don't see.
- 54:59Speaker 1: It, and less I don't see any defensive lineman or
- 55:02Speaker 1: offensive linemen that we're drafted. I mean that we're signed
- 55:06Speaker 1: in free agency after the draft. The receivers, corners, tight end, safety, linebacker,
- 55:12Speaker 1: another receiver, safety, corner, and tight end. So did not
- 55:16Speaker 1: go with a with alignment or a quarterback as far
- 55:19Speaker 1: as that goes. So, but they'll probably bring in some
- 55:24Speaker 1: workout guys for this mini camp. You're allowed to bring
- 55:28Speaker 1: in some of those guys. They may even have a
- 55:30Speaker 1: quarterback coming in just for a workout, just just to
- 55:32Speaker 1: throw the ball to some of these guys. So that
- 55:35Speaker 1: usually happens.
- 55:38Speaker 8: All right, right, okay, all right, right, that's all I got.
- 55:41Speaker 1: Appreciate it, and.
- 55:42Speaker 8: We are building up our offensive and defensive line.
- 55:45Speaker 1: Go Cowboys, all right, thank you, Lester. All right, let's

- 57:41Speaker 1: if you just joined us here, I started off the
- 57:44Speaker 1: show about an hour ago, but I started off the
- 57:47Speaker 1: show with an update on Randy and Texas Canada. He
- 57:50Speaker 1: has talked to Chris in a video. He's chatted with him.
- 57:54Speaker 1: He had surgery yesterday. He is doing okay. He's as
- 57:59Speaker 1: you would expect coming out coming out of surgery. He's
- 58:02Speaker 1: in recovery now doing well. Wanted to call probably was
- 58:07Speaker 1: advised fortunately by people around him that maybe this isn't
- 58:11Speaker 1: the best time to do that, But we're all pulling
- 58:15Speaker 1: for him, uh, and we told him call when he can. So, uh,
- 58:19Speaker 1: we're expecting a call from him next week, Uh, when
- 58:22Speaker 1: he's when he's up and around and doing a little
- 58:23Speaker 1: bit better. So we're excited that he had a successful
- 58:27Speaker 1: surgery and and hoping for the best, obviously from Randy
- 58:31Speaker 1: and Texarkana. Randy was one of our four captains we
- 58:34Speaker 1: put on the all storyline squad. And before this show
- 58:37Speaker 1: is over, I'll read off the list again in case
- 58:39Speaker 1: anyone uh didn't see where they were when we announced
- 58:43Speaker 1: it on Friday. All right, let's go to Ronnie in
- 58:47Speaker 1: New Jersey. Ronnie has been on the team two years
- 58:49Speaker 1: in a row. Ronnie, what's up?
- 58:51Speaker 23: Good morning, make and best of wishes to Randy. I
- 58:56Speaker 23: listened to all the guys on the on the show,
- 58:58Speaker 23: and yeah, he sounds like a cool guy. So a
- 59:00Speaker 23: bust of voices to him for a quick recovery exactly. Well, Nick,
- 59:06Speaker 23: I was gonna tell you the other day when I
- 59:09Speaker 23: called you on Friday that I loved that first round
- 59:11Speaker 23: pick man. After listening to this guy speak what wow,
- 59:16Speaker 23: I mean impressed the heck out of me. I mean wow,
- 59:21Speaker 23: the way the guy spoke, he's only what, he's only twenty?
- 59:25Speaker 23: This guy's like beyond his years. It reminds me of
- 59:28Speaker 23: Tyron Smith. When Tyron Smith came in, he was like,
- 59:31Speaker 23: what nineteen?
- 59:32Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was twenty, but yeah, I mean
- 59:34Speaker 1: it was, And I think I think Booker's twenty one.
- 59:37Speaker 1: But it's amazing his parents have done an amazing a
- 59:42Speaker 1: job with him and trained him for this moment, and
- 59:46Speaker 1: he was so prepared. It was it was awesome when
- 59:49Speaker 1: we when you hang about I'll say some some of
- 59:52Speaker 1: my favorite things that I heard him say in there
- 59:55Speaker 1: that was just it was just awesome. Makes me just think,
- 59:58Speaker 1: what a good person. But then again, he also he
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: also has that mean streak as well. It was like,
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: you want to take the life out of you when
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: he's playing against you. So I mean it's that life
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: is about balance, right, You want to have you want
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: to have a little bit of both, and it sounds
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: like he was able to turn it on and off.
- 1:00:16Speaker 23: And that's one of my favorite, like one of my
- 1:00:19Speaker 23: I know when you when we spoke before the draft,
- 1:00:22Speaker 23: you asked me, Hey, what were you like, And I
- 1:00:23Speaker 23: was like, I don't know. I had an offensive lineman,
- 1:00:26Speaker 23: defensive lineman.
- 1:00:27Speaker 4: You know, everybody wants the receivers or whatever.
- 1:00:29Speaker 23: But but this was a heck of a pick and
- 1:00:32Speaker 23: and that's the best part. I think his mentality. Yeah,
- 1:00:36Speaker 23: I love the guy's mentality. Like if other guys offensive line,
- 1:00:39Speaker 23: like our back up, the guy that played right guard
- 1:00:43Speaker 23: last year, if guys pick up these guys mentality and
- 1:00:46Speaker 23: play with that and and you know, bring up the atmosphere.
- 1:00:50Speaker 23: Everybody else gets motivated and starts to uh because you
- 1:00:54Speaker 23: know what I like about him, He seems like he's
- 1:00:56Speaker 23: not the quiet type of captain we got. We have
- 1:00:59Speaker 23: too many quidt it's we have too many guys that
- 1:01:01Speaker 23: lead by his sample. No, no, no, we need a
- 1:01:03Speaker 23: guy that could lead by his sample, but also has
- 1:01:06Speaker 23: to be vocal. And I love that this guy seems
- 1:01:09Speaker 23: that he's very vocal, and I think that's just what
- 1:01:12Speaker 23: we needed. So so I hope that with this draft
- 1:01:15Speaker 23: and with some of the guys, the Nose Tackle, I
- 1:01:18Speaker 23: hope that nost Tackle really gives the Masia a run
- 1:01:21Speaker 23: for his money because just from his film alone, he
- 1:01:24Speaker 23: looks like he's a big, tough guy, you know. So yeah,
- 1:01:27Speaker 23: I enjoyed this draft. So thanks for taking my call, Nigga.
- 1:01:32Speaker 23: Continue listening to.
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: You, all right, Well, thank you so much. Appreciate the call.
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: Ronnie from New Jersey. You know, we talked about that
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: that press conference for Tyler Booker, and and you know,
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: there were so many things that he said that that
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: were impressive. The thing that I love the most, and
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: I don't know why this kind of stuck out more
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: than others. But when he talked about Jalen Milroe, his
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: quarterback at Alabama, who hadn't been drafted at the time.
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: I think he got drafted later that night, second or
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: third round, maybe third round. But but he talked about him,
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: you know, and and and he was trying to pump
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: him up, of course, but you know, just talking about
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: what a great player he was. And and he said,
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: you know, I get a lot of credit for because
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: I haven't given up a lot of sacks. He's like,
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: but if Jalen wasn't the athlete that he is, I
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: would have given up some sacks. That number would have
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: been a lot higher. Just that self awareness of it's
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: not all about him. And it's a lot of times
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: the guy sitting up there, he's just been drafted. It's
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: easy to kind of do that fall into that you've
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: been told how great you are, but but to to say, hey,
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: it's a team, it's all of us, It's not just me.
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: This guy back here. You know, I gave up three sacks.
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: I would have got three sacks and he got away
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: from him. That's the type of good person he's He's
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: just a good person. He's aware, he's a good teammate
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: and and he understands, you know, reality, and and I
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: just loved I love the humility that came from that answer.
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: And then when he was talking to his little brother
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: who was sitting there, and he was just kind of saying,
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: I'm glad you get to see this. Keep listening to
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: mom and dad, and you'll have a chance to be here.
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: I mean, wow, I mean what what what a great
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: what a great moment? That was too so it was
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: it was touching exciting all at the same time. Now, great,
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: Now you gotta go play. Now you gotta go be
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: a mean sob out there on this field and be
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: the guy that that you know that you were describing
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: that takes the life out of the players in front
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: of because that's as a listener, that's what you guys want.
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: You want that guy, great, great person and all that.
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: Zach Martin's a great dude, Nate great, jolly Daha. Can
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: you go knock numbers seventy eight off the ball and
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: get a first down? That's what has to happen. That's
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: what this what Tyler Brooker is here to do, is
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: to be mean as hell and push people back so
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: he's done everything, just like Schottenheimer. You know, everything's great
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: right now, but when the games, when the lights come
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: on and the game start, you need to go prove it.
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: And that's you know, that's what we're all waiting to see.
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: All right, Zach in Atlanta's next?
- 1:04:14Speaker 15: Zach, Hey, what's up making Frisco?
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: How you doing?
- 1:04:19Speaker 15: I'm good? And uh, first team storyline? Thank you for
- 1:04:23Speaker 15: the selection you made it you're on. Yeah, it's pretty.
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: Cool, well deserved, well deserved for sure, not only you know. Yeah,
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: and let me just say this before you get started.
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: I think you're you're a perfect example for this. It's
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: not just about the amount of calls, but I know
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: that you know that does help because that means it
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: shows commitment. But it's also being memorable, being different, say,
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: adding something to the show that's a little different, you know,
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: a little quirky or whatever, and so and and you
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: you do that as far as like always keeping me
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: on my toes, always have something. I don't know what
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: you're gonna say, but it's something, and uh, yeah, that's
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: and that's good. I mean, there are people, honestly I'm
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: not gonna name names, obviously, but there are people that call,
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: they call a lot. I don't remember a lot of
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: the stuff that they say. And that can be good,
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: that could be bad. But like you're little, you're a
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: little I wouldn't say out there, but you're you're a
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: little bit.
- 1:05:15Speaker 15: Uh would you say, my friends call me a wild card?
- 1:05:18Speaker 5: Right? Never know?
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: That is perfect? You are the wild card because you
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: do never know. I'm kind of that way too. Man, Hey,
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: you don't want to be predictable, right right? Right?
- 1:05:29Speaker 15: Well that's that's my thing.
- 1:05:30Speaker 10: Man.
- 1:05:30Speaker 15: You know, there's so many callers who have just deep
- 1:05:33Speaker 15: knowledge of the game.
- 1:05:34Speaker 4: Uh.
- 1:05:34Speaker 15: And I mean, I feel like they should be getting
- 1:05:36Speaker 15: paid for their inside I'm like, man, Dylan shout out
- 1:05:39Speaker 15: to him and the others they.
- 1:05:41Speaker 4: Are in with No, No, they are not.
- 1:05:44Speaker 15: I'm addicating right now, I'm advocating they are not all them.
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: Please let's turn this into an n I L thing
- 1:05:52Speaker 1: for storyline.
- 1:05:55Speaker 15: But no, like me, like I know, my guy Anthony
- 1:05:58Speaker 15: and Miami like we try to bring different flavor and
- 1:06:01Speaker 15: so it's been a lot of fun. But as far
- 1:06:03Speaker 15: as the draft goes, one thread and I haven't been
- 1:06:07Speaker 15: listening it may have been brought up, but one thread
- 1:06:09Speaker 15: is that a lot of these picks were team captains
- 1:06:11Speaker 15: on their team, and I'm like, Okay, yeah, I just
- 1:06:16Speaker 15: heard you talking about it. Let's let's see it on
- 1:06:18Speaker 15: the field. You know, everybody likes a nice guy in
- 1:06:21Speaker 15: the hall, but let's let's see you just be a monster.
- 1:06:23Speaker 15: But I'm like, man, can this translate to like cutting
- 1:06:26Speaker 15: down on penalties and sloppy play, because I feel like
- 1:06:30Speaker 15: ever since Parcels left that's just been a hallmark of
- 1:06:34Speaker 15: the Cowboys is you're going to get the penalty at
- 1:06:36Speaker 15: the wrong time, you know. And I feel like getting
- 1:06:39Speaker 15: the culture right in the locker room is a step
- 1:06:42Speaker 15: towards that. We got to see it play out. But
- 1:06:46Speaker 15: of all of all the things that could be said
- 1:06:48Speaker 15: that have already been said, I'm sure that's when I'm
- 1:06:51Speaker 15: gonna bring to the table. We got some team captains
- 1:06:53Speaker 15: on the collegiate level, and hopefully that brings a level
- 1:06:57Speaker 15: of excellence attention to detail that doesn't in the big
- 1:07:00Speaker 15: spots for us. So I got man.
- 1:07:04Speaker 10: Appreciate it.
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: Thank you. That's very very good point. And that question
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: was asked in the press conference to Schottenheimer, and I
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: think you know, his answer was kind of like, it's
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: a it's a product of some of the other things.
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: They didn't go out drafting for captains. What they were
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: drafting for was really good football players who loved the game,
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: that that understand that there's more to it than just
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: going and playing on saturdays for college. That there's a
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: lot of things that go into this to be the
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: level of a player that could be drafted, and those
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: those traits, those those characteristics are what made them a
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: captain on their team. So, you know, I think it
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: was more I'm not saying that they backed into it.
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: This is the type of player that they're looking for.
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: And then and then to say, are you surprised that
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: he's a captain? Oh, no, I would imagine he would be.
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: So it's it's that it's that type of thing they don't.
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: They don't they're not just pulling up a roster like
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: Virginia Tech, who's the captain? What's our great on them?
- 1:08:05Speaker 9: Now?
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: They're doing their homework. They're getting good, smart football players
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: that loved how to love to play this game and
- 1:08:13Speaker 1: do it the right way. And what do you know
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: they were captains on their team. Well, of course they were,
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: because that's the kind of guys we're looking for. So
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: I think that that's part of it. Very very good question,
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: and you're onto something there. I don't know. I don't
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: think it's the top priority, but it's a product of
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: the things that they were looking for. All right, Champ
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: in Nebraska is next, Champ. What's right?
- 1:08:33Speaker 2: Hey?
- 1:08:33Speaker 4: Nick?
- 1:08:34Speaker 8: How you doing good?
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: How are you?
- 1:08:36Speaker 4: I'm wonderful man, Hey.
- 1:08:38Speaker 3: First and foremost, I.
- 1:08:39Speaker 4: Want to shout out Randy bro We're still thinking about
- 1:08:42Speaker 4: you and praying for you, buddy. It's still better get better,
- 1:08:44Speaker 4: of course, of course, man, thank you so much. I
- 1:08:48Speaker 4: know you said earlier got into a little bit of
- 1:08:50Speaker 4: the tank offs. That's our thank you offs and nice.
- 1:08:53Speaker 4: Thank you so much for the second team all storyline. Yeah,
- 1:08:57Speaker 4: I'll be honest, I was hoping that. I wasn't thinking
- 1:09:00Speaker 4: I would get in because I don't pull off and
- 1:09:03Speaker 4: I try to go about once a week just to
- 1:09:05Speaker 4: get a point for the week and be done. But
- 1:09:08Speaker 4: I appreciate that. Thank you to you, Chris being Derek,
- 1:09:12Speaker 4: I do thank you forgotten to mention one honorable mentioned
- 1:09:15Speaker 4: person that should be on the storyline team every year,
- 1:09:18Speaker 4: and that's Woody there.
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: He's like, yes, sir, okay, he scared me for a second.
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: Comes on, and who did I who did I leave off? Listen,
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: we just gave We just gave Darren Woodson a big
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: old lion poster. You know. Now he's there, Darren's on,
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: always on the team. He's got open invitation for that
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: seat right there. That's right, you're right, you're right about that.
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: I I like to think that goes without saying. But
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: you know, you're right. I could have said that. I
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: could have put Darren honorary Member of all time. Uh,
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: you know what, You're right. I'll see if I can
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: give him one of these one of these mugs.
- 1:09:58Speaker 3: But that's awesome.
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, go ahead.
- 1:10:04Speaker 4: Going to the draft, man, I will be honest. Right
- 1:10:07Speaker 4: off the bat, I was like, dang it, disappointed we
- 1:10:09Speaker 4: didn't get.
- 1:10:10Speaker 3: Tet because that's what you've been hearing, you.
- 1:10:12Speaker 4: Know, receiver receiver receiver got Booker.
- 1:10:15Speaker 3: And I'm like, Okay, let me kind of see what
- 1:10:17Speaker 3: this guy's about.
- 1:10:18Speaker 4: Heard him talk and I'm sold ez A Roku and
- 1:10:22Speaker 4: Revel Jr. In the second and third rounds. I mean,
- 1:10:26Speaker 4: I'm drinking the kool aid. Everything I'm hearing, I'm I
- 1:10:30Speaker 4: appreciate it. Going down to the seventh round. You, I'm
- 1:10:34Speaker 4: sure you probably watched Chris Berman and Tom Jackson back
- 1:10:36Speaker 4: in the old days in the nineties. I don't remember
- 1:10:40Speaker 4: what it was. Boomer had a saying where he would
- 1:10:45Speaker 4: say something and Tom Jackson would reply, watch your mouth
- 1:10:48Speaker 4: like he was Conda.
- 1:10:49Speaker 3: Implying a cuss word, but he wasn't saying it.
- 1:10:53Speaker 4: And I think that that'd be great for MafA. Yeah
- 1:10:59Speaker 4: that he you know, they'd be like, hey, he's a
- 1:11:01Speaker 4: bad and then I could hear Tom Jackson going, hey,
- 1:11:04Speaker 4: watch your mouth, he's a bad mouth.
- 1:11:07Speaker 3: No, yeah, there you go.
- 1:11:09Speaker 4: I don't know if it was appropriate to say or not.
- 1:11:10Speaker 3: I don't want to get benned or anything.
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: So that's that's okay, that's all right. Uh No, I mean, hey,
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: he needs to be one.
- 1:11:19Speaker 3: I mean, that's exactly right.
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: Because I can promise you this the first time. Speaking
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: of Chris Berman and Tom Jackson, the first time Mike
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: all Start took the ball, it was Mike all Start
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: up the middle for eight yards, four yards whatever. It
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: wasn't ntil later in his career when when he started
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: the right right, you gotta you gotta be that guy.
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: You gotta develop it, and hey, he's a seventh round
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: running back, So whatever that is, if it is shoulder
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: injuries or what would like like we've heard, this is
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: a great chance to prove it, get healthy, get ready
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: to go, and you won't really know until training camp
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: when the Pats come on if he's going to be
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: you know what type of player he's going to be.
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: But you know they're they're excited about Jaydon Blue of course,
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: and you know this is they're gonna get chances to
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: go do something. But especially if these guys up front,
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: you get that line up front, Babe Tyler Smith and
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: of course now Booker pushing people back, you know it
- 1:12:17Speaker 1: might open up for a guy like MafA or Blue.
- 1:12:20Speaker 4: Yes, I'm excited.
- 1:12:22Speaker 3: I'm excited for our running game is coming.
- 1:12:24Speaker 6: Here.
- 1:12:25Speaker 3: One other quick questions and I'll take it off there
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: and listen to your answer.
- 1:12:28Speaker 4: Is how close do you think or how probable was
- 1:12:33Speaker 4: it that had Shidler been there, we take him personally?
- 1:12:37Speaker 4: By that point, I was like, okay, I'm okay with
- 1:12:41Speaker 4: it if we take him at this point, but I'll
- 1:12:44Speaker 4: take it off there. I'll let you reply.
- 1:12:45Speaker 3: Thank you guys so much again for the all story
- 1:12:47Speaker 3: second Team. I'm grants all of the other guys.
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: All right, thank you, Champ, appreciate that. I think there
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: were some Johnny Manziel moments as far as one guy
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: that that was interested, maybe more than the rest who
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: had done done the homework there. I don't know, I mean,
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: I'm I'm kind of hesitanted to say. I don't want
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: to compare them exactly the same because the situation is
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: completely completely different. But it reminded me a little bit
- 1:13:25Speaker 1: of a few years ago with Colin Kaepernick, and it's
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: just like, there's a lot of stuff now that's going
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: to be around this person. Are are you good enough
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: to be worth it? And and that's that's the thing,
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: that's what it really came down to, was just is
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: he good is he good enough for for to be
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: And even if it's fifth round, sixth round, you know,
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: he's your second third quarterback, probably your your third quarterback
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: trying to be a backup, and is all of what's
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: probably going to be around and listening to people chirping
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: on and and a very vocal dad, I mean very
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: vocal and invisible dad who's who's a friend of the family.
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: Of course, there was just a lot to it, and
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: it just comes down to is this guy good enough?
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: Is he good enough to do what you're wanting him
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: to do? And and and we'll we'll see, I mean,
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: you know we we Doc went to the fourth round,
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: Brady went to the sixth. There's a lot of quarterbacks
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: that kind of happen like that. Now, you know, now
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: he's going to have to prove what what he can
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: go and do, and maybe Cleveland's a good spot. I
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: think I think most of the room was kind of
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: sold that this is probably not as good as as
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: what they had. They just traded a sixth round pick
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: for Joe Milton to be a backup there for for Doc,
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: and he's got Will Greer, and I just think that
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: they thought that was probably better than anything else that
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: they had. All Right, Steve in New York is next, Hey,
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: how are you doing?
- 1:14:51Speaker 24: Thank you for the uh for the acknowledgement.
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: Then got you on the third team, always always throwing
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: in or not always sometimes throwing in trivia questions always
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: finally so uh, yeah.
- 1:15:03Speaker 4: I got one for you.
- 1:15:04Speaker 24: And I apologize because I couldn't hear that when I'm
- 1:15:07Speaker 24: on hold the last call, because I was going to
- 1:15:08Speaker 24: ask you hypothetically, I don't like hypothetic questions. But if
- 1:15:13Speaker 24: Milton wasn't signed, I picked number seventy six, or are
- 1:15:17Speaker 24: we even do you think they're even looking in that direction?
- 1:15:20Speaker 24: Because I heard who you know, you're obviously talking about Sanders.
- 1:15:24Speaker 24: Is that something that they're even third round? Yeah?
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: You mean third round? Yeah, you know, if you don't draft,
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: if you don't sign Milton, then then yeah, you are.
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: You are looking differently there at your quarterback position. And
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: I don't know if it would have been Sanders, you know,
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: and and Quinn yours also like like you know, Jerry's
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: getting Jerry's getting I mean he's got he's got a
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: there's people in in the room, in the war room
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: that played on the same team as him, so you
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: know there there's there's some messages going on back and
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: forth and all that. I just don't think that they
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: were really that interested. But you're hypothetically, if you go
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: into the draft without a solid backup, then yeah, that
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: might change some things. But they would have probably drafted
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: one a little bit earlier, and I don't know if
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: it would have been those guys. It may not have been,
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: but it would.
- 1:16:13Speaker 24: Have been interesting. I'll tell you that, Like people ask
- 1:16:16Speaker 24: me every year, you know, what do you think of
- 1:16:18Speaker 24: the draft? And I say what I always say, which
- 1:16:20Speaker 24: is the two things I pay no attention in football
- 1:16:24Speaker 24: when they talk about. One is power rankings I talk
- 1:16:26Speaker 24: about I don't even know what that means when they
- 1:16:28Speaker 24: talk about power rankings, and when they give draft day
- 1:16:31Speaker 24: report cards, and I'm saying, yeah, I don't know how
- 1:16:34Speaker 24: you can grade a draft based on guys who haven't
- 1:16:38Speaker 24: played yet. Like, remember when we took what year was
- 1:16:42Speaker 24: Travis Frederick thirteen whatever, whatever year that was. Remember how
- 1:16:47Speaker 24: people said, oh, that's kind of a reach. They could
- 1:16:49Speaker 24: have got him later. You know, how great did he
- 1:16:51Speaker 24: turn out to be?
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: Exactly?
- 1:16:52Speaker 24: And last year with Geyton, who I think is going
- 1:16:55Speaker 24: to be good, it was okay, now you got your
- 1:16:57Speaker 24: left tackle, Now we're set there for you know, and
- 1:17:00Speaker 24: he struggled. So you know, let the guys play. Let
- 1:17:04Speaker 24: these guys.
- 1:17:04Speaker 4: Play, well, yeah, and see what happens.
- 1:17:06Speaker 10: I agree.
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: I mean, really, those draft grades are really just a
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: reflection of the of the whoever's doing the grading of
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: their own grades. To start with, if somebody said that
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: Shirro Sanders is a top ten, top twenty pick, and
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: he goes to the fifth round. Then obviously the Browns
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: are going to get you know, some great value because
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: where they got him. And if somebody was a reach,
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: you know on their board. If somebody has Booker twenty
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: fifth on their board and the Cowboys aren't going to
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: get a good grade, But what does that guy know?
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: I mean, he doesn't. I mean, nobody knows really anything.
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: So if grades are just kind of weird, they're just
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: a reflection of the work you've already done, or lack
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: of work that maybe that you've copied from other people.
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: I mean, really what a lot of that is. So
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: I don't put a lot of stock in that. You know,
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: who cares other than what.
- 1:17:51Speaker 15: The Cowboys had.
- 1:17:52Speaker 24: I'm with you, and of course I can hit you
- 1:17:53Speaker 24: with the tribute before I go. I don't think I
- 1:17:55Speaker 24: ask you this one, but Parcell's first year's coach two
- 1:17:57Speaker 24: thousand and three, first game, okay against Atlanta, this guy
- 1:18:04Speaker 24: scored a sixty three yard.
- 1:18:07Speaker 10: Wow.
- 1:18:08Speaker 24: You know, you know, I think he scored two touchdowns
- 1:18:12Speaker 24: or three touchdowns his entire career.
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: Yeah, he went right down, right down the right sideline,
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: right in front of the Cowboys bench. He sure did
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: you know who else scored a touchdown in that game.
- 1:18:21Speaker 25: I believe I think he did. Would he, Danceler, He
- 1:18:28Speaker 25: definitely played. Actually, he definitely played for Atlanta. He played
- 1:18:32Speaker 25: for for Atlanta and that game against the Cowboys.
