0:27
Speaker 1: happening here. On the last show, we said, well, give
0:30
Speaker 1: us a week. We'll see if things are going to change.
0:33
Speaker 1: The narrative changes. I don't know if it's changed completely
0:36
Speaker 1: as far as Cowboys aren't doing anything, but they are.
0:39
Speaker 1: They've done a little something last night. They agreed to
0:43
Speaker 1: terms with linebacker Eric Kendricks. And I'm sure you guys
0:46
Speaker 1: have seen that by now, and I'll weigh in on
0:49
Speaker 1: that move and see if that's uh, if that does
0:52
Speaker 1: anything for you. Veteran linebacker knows the scheme obviously, has
0:56
Speaker 1: played a long time in Minnesota, I believe eight years
0:59
Speaker 1: with the Viking, most of that under Mike Zimmer most
1:04
Speaker 1: of that so so Zimmer knows him well. And then
1:07
Speaker 1: he went to the Chargers last year and he was released.
1:10
Speaker 1: Uh so you know it's an older linebacker signed a
1:14
Speaker 1: one year deal. But we'll see, you know, see what
1:17
Speaker 1: he what he's got He was gonna sign with the
1:20
Speaker 1: forty nine ers and changed his mind and went went
1:23
Speaker 1: with Zimmer. So Dan Quinn is not the only one
1:25
Speaker 1: you know, that's kind of reuniting with players former guys
1:29
Speaker 1: that that that he's coached before. And obviously, uh, we'll
1:32
Speaker 1: see if it works out, but at least you know
1:34
Speaker 1: from the outside perspective, Cowboys are are definitely on the
1:37
Speaker 1: board now with with getting Uh. I say that on
1:40
Speaker 1: the board that he hasn't officially signed yet, and he's
1:42
Speaker 1: already changed his mind once, So we'll see if he
1:45
Speaker 1: if he doesn't do that, but I don't think he'll
1:47
Speaker 1: do that this time. I think he's gonna sign with
1:49
Speaker 1: the Cowboys probably tomorrow. On that all right? Eight eight
1:52
Speaker 1: eight eight five five two two nine seven. We're gonna
1:54
Speaker 1: go an hour here today. We're not gonna go overtime
1:57
Speaker 1: like we did Tuesday. We've got to cut it right
1:59
Speaker 1: at two o'clock here. So we're gonna get going on
2:02
Speaker 1: the phone lines. We got Javon in Toledo, Ohio. He
2:08
Speaker 1: was going on, well, I know your first caller.
2:11
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it is all right, man, how you doing
2:17
Speaker 3: find out about man?
2:18
Speaker 1: I'm good start us off what you got.
2:21
Speaker 4: All right.
2:21
Speaker 3: So my first thing is about the free agency. So
2:24
Speaker 3: everybody's mad about we ain't get somebody at the first
2:27
Speaker 3: day or whatever, but we never do. We never get
2:29
Speaker 3: nobody the first week. Jerry Jones mainly try to get
2:32
Speaker 3: the back end of the draft. I mean, I'm not
2:34
Speaker 3: back in the drift back end of the free agency
2:37
Speaker 3: just to feel in the hole. So basically my thing is,
2:40
Speaker 3: I was want your opinion on it. I think what
2:43
Speaker 3: they're gonna do is they're not gonna sign da right off.
2:46
Speaker 3: They probably signed them, I say, at the end of
2:47
Speaker 3: this week, or maybe not the end of the week,
2:50
Speaker 3: maybe in the next week, but they gonna sign them
2:52
Speaker 3: in time in order to get through the rest of
2:54
Speaker 3: they want in the free agency to fill up the
2:55
Speaker 3: hole they have on defense and then off I mean
2:58
Speaker 3: during the draft who they need for offense. I'd like
3:02
Speaker 3: to know what your pennybody is that? But on that
3:04
Speaker 3: you know what?
3:05
Speaker 1: You all right?
3:07
Speaker 5: Uh?
3:08
Speaker 1: You have another question or is that it?
3:11
Speaker 4: Uh?
3:12
Speaker 3: No, not really, that's about it. I'll try to call
3:13
Speaker 3: in again. I'm a truck duyer, so I had time
3:16
Speaker 3: my hand.
3:17
Speaker 1: All right, awesome, man, I appreciate that appreciate what you
3:20
Speaker 1: do and haul on things from one side of the
3:23
Speaker 1: world to the other.
3:24
Speaker 6: Uh.
3:25
Speaker 1: You know this, this DAK thing is is crazy because
3:28
Speaker 1: there's so many options the Cowboys kind of have. I
3:32
Speaker 1: just don't see I think I heard you say you
3:35
Speaker 1: think it's going to be done by the end of
3:36
Speaker 1: this week. Like, I don't see that happening. I don't
3:39
Speaker 1: see even CD or DAK kind of playing to help
3:45
Speaker 1: the Cowboys here. And I'm not saying they're trying to
3:47
Speaker 1: hurt the Cowboys. The Cowboys could could make this happen too.
3:50
Speaker 1: I just don't see the start of free agency being
3:53
Speaker 1: the reason why these deals happen or they don't happen.
3:57
Speaker 1: So I think the Cowboys can do some things. They
4:02
Speaker 1: have money. I think that's one thing you got to remember.
4:04
Speaker 1: They have some money here. They just they're trying to
4:09
Speaker 1: be smart with it because they know they need to
4:12
Speaker 1: roll over as much as they can into next year.
4:14
Speaker 1: So whether or not they spend some of that right now,
4:19
Speaker 1: you know, let me think about it. Think about it. It
4:21
Speaker 1: just in your own bank account. If you had a
4:24
Speaker 1: thousand dollars in there, you know you have it, you know,
4:27
Speaker 1: but you need it for something else down the road,
4:30
Speaker 1: where you know, do you just wait for that or
4:32
Speaker 1: you're like, well, I'm gonna get this other paycheck coming
4:34
Speaker 1: in here, so I'll spend a little bit here and
4:36
Speaker 1: then when this you know, it's it's that kind of thing.
4:39
Speaker 1: So they can do Dack later. I don't think they
4:40
Speaker 1: have to do Dak right now. And I'm not sure
4:43
Speaker 1: that they want to do that that at all, because
4:46
Speaker 1: anything you do with that unless like, there's gonna be
4:52
Speaker 1: thirty six million dollars in dead money for Dak next
4:56
Speaker 1: year regardless. I mean, there's there's gonna be thirty six million.
5:01
Speaker 1: So if you sign him to this big deal where
5:04
Speaker 1: he's the highest paid quarterback in the league, then whatever
5:07
Speaker 1: you do and whatever his base and his pro rationing
5:10
Speaker 1: and all that goes on top of that. So if
5:13
Speaker 1: you don't do anything at all, it just play it out.
5:15
Speaker 1: He becomes a free agent. It's thirty six million already,
5:18
Speaker 1: so that that's gonna happen. So if you if you
5:22
Speaker 1: try to create some room this year, it's gonna just
5:25
Speaker 1: you know, have more of a problem next year. And
5:27
Speaker 1: so that that's the dilemma. The Cowboys are in there,
5:29
Speaker 1: all right, Uh, let's stay in the in the state
5:32
Speaker 1: of Ohio. Greg in Columbus, Ohio, Hey, good man, how
5:37
Speaker 1: are you doing.
5:38
Speaker 4: I'm doing good. I was doing some problems solving for
5:43
Speaker 4: the Cowboys. And I remember back when Jerry was wildcout
5:48
Speaker 4: Jerry Okay, And remember who used to be as his ear,
5:54
Speaker 4: his wildcat Jerry. That is Jimmy Johnson. Who's in Jerry here?
6:00
Speaker 4: And that Jimmy Johnson. And what I'm saying is, do
6:06
Speaker 4: you think there could be a possibility that we could
6:10
Speaker 4: get rid of a player for about four draft picks
6:14
Speaker 4: who really, to be truthful, he has about six, seven,
6:19
Speaker 4: maybe eight games where he's really good, and he tails
6:23
Speaker 4: off at the end of the season every year. And
6:26
Speaker 4: maybe we can turn at number seven overall draft pick
6:31
Speaker 4: back out and get a couple more draft picks out
6:33
Speaker 4: of that. And so then you get like five players
6:37
Speaker 4: for one player.
6:38
Speaker 1: Are you talking about Michael Parsons?
6:40
Speaker 4: Get rid of it, and we gotta get rid of him.
6:42
Speaker 4: He's gonna be a problem next year. We're doing a contract.
6:46
Speaker 4: We've got two problems already. He's gonna be a problem.
6:51
Speaker 4: And to little Mac got traded, Yeah, Marcus, Marcus war
6:57
Speaker 4: got traded he's no better.
7:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, well.
7:04
Speaker 4: That's that's what we can't have ten players making year. Yeah,
7:12
Speaker 4: well yeah, you can turn if you could turn one
7:16
Speaker 4: of those players into five or six track picks, why not.
7:19
Speaker 1: Do that, Well, because you're losing that one player that's
7:24
Speaker 1: worth five or six trapt picks. I mean, that's why
7:26
Speaker 1: you don't do it. I mean, that's that's why. I mean,
7:29
Speaker 1: I mean, there's there's a reason why Aaron Donald hasn't
7:32
Speaker 1: been traded. I mean, there's there's a reason for that.
7:34
Speaker 1: I mean, they want to keep him. He's a he's
7:36
Speaker 1: a stud player, He's a difference maker, and that's that's
7:40
Speaker 1: what you're hoping for. You're like Will Will Micah Parsons,
7:43
Speaker 1: continue to develop as a player as a person, keep
7:46
Speaker 1: maturing as a player as a person, and keep getting
7:50
Speaker 1: your team over over the humping and can be that
7:52
Speaker 1: kind of dynamic. You You you lucked out. You got
7:55
Speaker 1: an unbelievable player at number twelve. So there's a reason
7:59
Speaker 1: why you didn't want to trade him. If you think
8:01
Speaker 1: that it's this is the best it's going to be,
8:04
Speaker 1: and I can get all this for him, then then yeah,
8:07
Speaker 1: I mean maybe the Cowboys would would do that. I'll
8:10
Speaker 1: be surprised if that happens. But I don't think it's
8:13
Speaker 1: that's not like ever being discussed. I mean, yeah, I
8:16
Speaker 1: mean I think you talk about that kind of stuff
8:19
Speaker 1: because if Drince is going to get fifteen million a year, man,
8:22
Speaker 1: what's Mike right?
8:24
Speaker 7: And me?
8:25
Speaker 8: And also.
8:28
Speaker 4: As of right now, I would take thirty million uh
8:34
Speaker 4: whatever his name is down there in campas uh Baker
8:39
Speaker 4: may Yeah. I hated him when he played for Oklahoma
8:43
Speaker 4: for what he did to High State, but I would
8:45
Speaker 4: take him over thirty million dollars. I would take him
8:49
Speaker 4: over Dack at six any day.
8:52
Speaker 9: Of the week.
8:54
Speaker 1: Well, agree to disagree on that, that's fine, all right, Greg,
8:58
Speaker 1: weank you. Thanks for the all.
9:01
Speaker 4: Yeah.
9:01
Speaker 1: I didn't agree with a lot of that stuff that
9:02
Speaker 1: he said, honestly. And I'll say this, Jerry and Jimmy
9:07
Speaker 1: may be talking. I don't think Jerry, what's It's not
9:11
Speaker 1: like he's the the GM in his ear. I mean,
9:14
Speaker 1: like that's not that's not the case, and if it was,
9:16
Speaker 1: they certainly wouldn't say it. I don't think Fox is
9:19
Speaker 1: gonna be okay with him being an analyst and and
9:22
Speaker 1: doing all that, and and and and talking to the Cowboys,
9:25
Speaker 1: you know, and trying to help that. No, that's not
9:27
Speaker 1: the case that I think. I think they're they're friendly again.
9:29
Speaker 1: He's in the ring of honor there, Jimmy and Jerry.
9:33
Speaker 1: You know, their relationship is the way it should be.
9:36
Speaker 1: And that's that's kind of to me, that's the extent
9:38
Speaker 1: of it. I could be wrong. I know what Jimmy said,
9:41
Speaker 1: but I'm not. I'm not thinking that he's sitting in
9:44
Speaker 1: on draft meetings or anything like that. Trading Michael scares
9:50
Speaker 1: me just because I think you have it. I think
9:53
Speaker 1: you have an unbelievable player, and and I just I
9:56
Speaker 1: don't know. I I I see the logic, and you know,
10:01
Speaker 1: and I and Khalil Mack is what he said, got traded,
10:05
Speaker 1: and you know some of those those deals like that,
10:08
Speaker 1: you know, they got a lot of money. De Marcus
10:10
Speaker 1: Ware did not get. He was released by the Cowboys
10:13
Speaker 1: and he just signed with Denver. But you know, I
10:18
Speaker 1: don't I don't see that happening. I think the Cowboys
10:21
Speaker 1: are going to keep keep there. That they like to
10:23
Speaker 1: keep their their star players for a reason and build
10:26
Speaker 1: around them. But you know, stranger things have happened. I
10:30
Speaker 1: guess all right, let's go to Bill and New Haven, Connecticut.
10:35
Speaker 9: What's going on?
10:35
Speaker 10: Nick?
10:36
Speaker 1: How are you doing?
10:37
Speaker 4: Not that?
10:38
Speaker 9: How about yourself?
10:39
Speaker 1: Great? Great, great great?
10:41
Speaker 9: There we go. Hey, the other day you had mentioned
10:43
Speaker 9: and a lot of people have floated this idea too,
10:46
Speaker 9: and it's it's not a narrative because it's actually fat.
10:49
Speaker 9: It's true. But you guys said that the front office
10:52
Speaker 9: knew that twenty four and twenty five were going to
10:56
Speaker 9: be very tough years for the Cowboys, just based on
11:00
Speaker 9: the dead cap hits that they pushed off of the future.
11:03
Speaker 9: And if you follow the money, that's absolutely true. But
11:07
Speaker 9: as a fan, what that actually does and maybe you
11:11
Speaker 9: could agree with it and disagree, I don't know, that
11:13
Speaker 9: makes them not being aggressive in twenty one and twenty
11:17
Speaker 9: two even worse. Because if you knew the hit the
11:21
Speaker 9: cat situation was going to intensify twenty four and twenty
11:25
Speaker 9: five were living it now, then why wouldn't you if
11:30
Speaker 9: you foresee it coming, Why wouldn't you at that point
11:33
Speaker 9: with the playoff team twelve and five teams empty up
11:37
Speaker 9: some of your ships and go go grab this thing.
11:40
Speaker 9: And if and if your idea of you know, being
11:44
Speaker 9: aggressive and Listen, both of these trades worked out for them.
11:47
Speaker 9: You got to give them credit for them. But if
11:49
Speaker 9: they're if their idea is giving up fifth round picks
11:52
Speaker 9: for Brandon Cooks and Gilmore, then there's a bigger issue
11:57
Speaker 9: than just sitting out free agency because that's what they
12:01
Speaker 9: get take money to do. And like you and many
12:04
Speaker 9: others have said, they saw a problem coming. And yet
12:08
Speaker 9: do you think they were aggressive the last few years?
12:11
Speaker 1: Yeah?
12:11
Speaker 9: Because you do or you don't?
12:13
Speaker 1: Yeah? I do? I mean I do. What what would
12:16
Speaker 1: what would make you think that they weren't aggressive?
12:19
Speaker 9: Well, listen, let me just let me make sure I'm
12:21
Speaker 9: articulating myself. Clearly, I don't think they were aggressive as
12:24
Speaker 9: they could have.
12:25
Speaker 1: Been, like free agency, free agency.
12:27
Speaker 9: Free agency or even like we mentioned another talk that
12:30
Speaker 9: we've had. I don't think they haven't given up you know,
12:34
Speaker 9: valuable picks for trade.
12:35
Speaker 1: Do you think they did, No, they didn't give up
12:38
Speaker 1: valuable picks. But but I mean they've they've been I
12:41
Speaker 1: think they've been somewhat aggressive and also keeping their players intact,
12:45
Speaker 1: you know, keeping their core players. I think that's one
12:48
Speaker 1: thing that fans forget sometimes because it's just like any kid.
12:52
Speaker 1: They're not worried. When they go through the store. They
12:55
Speaker 1: don't ever say I've got these twenty five thousand toys
12:59
Speaker 1: over here. They want the one that they see right there,
13:02
Speaker 1: and so they don't care about You know what, Dad,
13:05
Speaker 1: I'm good because I got a bunch at home. Who
13:07
Speaker 1: says that. The fans, it's the same. It's the same way.
13:11
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, oh you signed last year in free
13:15
Speaker 1: trading camp. Oh cool, they signed Zach Martin, finally get
13:18
Speaker 1: him in here? Cool? What about oh Malik Hooker? Okay, yeah,
13:21
Speaker 1: good good deal, good good trade, I'll be good. Good signing.
13:23
Speaker 1: Who else? Oh Diggs? Nice? But but that's that that
13:28
Speaker 1: counts too, Like that counts on the cap.
13:30
Speaker 9: Absolutely, it does count. You're right, and we shouldn't short
13:33
Speaker 9: changing for that. But that's the same token. We're sitting
13:36
Speaker 9: around here for so many years trying to build a
13:38
Speaker 9: team that can consistently be in the playoffs, and it gotlin.
13:42
Speaker 9: Now they should be credited for that instead of the
13:45
Speaker 9: ah up and down the roller coaster. They have a
13:47
Speaker 9: perennial playoff team, and you would hope that they would say,
13:51
Speaker 9: you know what, the Green Bay thing set us back.
13:53
Speaker 9: We weren't as good as we thought what were close elite,
13:57
Speaker 9: but let's make the moves to get us there. And
14:00
Speaker 9: it just seems like there's a lot of and it's
14:02
Speaker 9: early in the off season. You gotta give him the time.
14:04
Speaker 9: I get that. But it seems like there's audit hugging
14:07
Speaker 9: in high five and over twelve and five seasons. And
14:10
Speaker 9: this off season is going to play out just like
14:13
Speaker 9: it has the last. However, many and I think the
14:16
Speaker 9: results will be the same. I love to be wrong.
14:18
Speaker 9: I'll be here talking about it with you. I just
14:20
Speaker 9: don't see the intensity that other that i'd see from
14:22
Speaker 9: other places.
14:23
Speaker 1: All Right, all right, I hear you. All right, thanks
14:27
Speaker 1: for the call. Bill, appreciate that. Let's take a break
14:30
Speaker 1: real quick on Cowboy storyline. We'll be right back in

Speaker 1: a second. Take a break.

16:38
Speaker 12: To Cowboys storyline.
16:48
Speaker 1: All right, guys, back here on Cowboys storyline. It's a
16:51
Speaker 1: lot of stuff going on here as far as the
16:55
Speaker 1: uh the free agency news going on. Just to let
16:58
Speaker 1: everybody know they Cowboys have agreed to terms with Jordan Lewis.
17:03
Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis has an agreed to terms on a one
17:05
Speaker 1: year deal to return to the team. So just letting
17:09
Speaker 1: our people know that I was trying to make some
17:11
Speaker 1: phone calls there that we are good to go on
17:14
Speaker 1: that and we can announce that. So that's good. That's
17:16
Speaker 1: another that's another move, and another guy, another veteran core player,
17:21
Speaker 1: uh coming back another one year deal. They got Kendrick
17:25
Speaker 1: there you go, there you go, and uh, and you've
17:27
Speaker 1: got Jordan Lewis as well, So that I think that's
17:32
Speaker 1: that's that's positive. I mean, I wonder what that means
17:34
Speaker 1: for a guy like Stefan Gilmour who's also a free agent,
17:39
Speaker 1: got a shoulder injury. But but to get to get
17:42
Speaker 1: Lewis back in the fold there a slot guy that
17:45
Speaker 1: that gives him some versatility with Deron Bland as well.
17:48
Speaker 1: So good move for the Cowboys there getting uh, getting
17:52
Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis. All right, let's go to the phone line.
17:55
Speaker 1: Chris in Mississippi.
17:58
Speaker 6: First things first, I appreciated me. It is an honor
18:01
Speaker 6: to be on the honor of Mentional Honorable Mention. Yeah,
18:06
Speaker 6: I just wanted to say. I told Chris in the
18:08
Speaker 6: break that sometimes when I call from Mississippi, it tells
18:12
Speaker 6: me that I can't be connected. So I don't know
18:14
Speaker 6: what's going on with that. I mean, I've made T
18:16
Speaker 6: and T. I guess it's another team or something that's
18:20
Speaker 6: in between us is stopping me from getting to go.
18:22
Speaker 6: But and that's just a joke. But yeah, you know,
18:26
Speaker 6: I'm honestly, I was.
18:30
Speaker 9: Home.
18:33
Speaker 1: Oh oh, it has been a while since we've heard
18:36
Speaker 1: from Chris and Mississippi. You there, all right, Chris? All right, Chris.
18:47
Speaker 1: I think he was gonna say that he thinks Dak
18:51
Speaker 1: should get re signed because he's a Mississippi guy and
18:55
Speaker 1: he likes watching him Assissippi State, and he thinks that
18:57
Speaker 1: Dak it should be he's going to win the super
18:59
Speaker 1: Bowl one day. Something like that. I don't know. I'm kidding.
19:04
Speaker 1: All right, let's get let's keep it moving. Your Mark
19:07
Speaker 1: in Canada, Hey there, Mark, Yes, all right, let's.
19:13
Speaker 6: Go all right.
19:16
Speaker 10: Yeah, I just think, uh, I think the Cowboys need
19:21
Speaker 10: to to do a little bit more free agency. And
19:24
Speaker 10: I know that sounds like I know you've talked about
19:26
Speaker 10: it a bunch, but I just feel like oh, I'm
19:30
Speaker 10: the first time caller too, all right, But yeah, I
19:34
Speaker 10: just feel like that there's a you know, it's a
19:39
Speaker 10: you keep eating your head against the wall. I'm expecting
19:41
Speaker 10: the different results. You know, that's kind of insanity. And
19:43
Speaker 10: I find like that's kind of what they're doing here.
19:45
Speaker 10: It's like we're gonna like cherry pick through free agency
19:49
Speaker 10: and we're going to draft, you know, pretty good players.
19:52
Speaker 10: And I think they've done well through the draft, but
19:56
Speaker 10: it's just it's not getting us over the hump. And
19:59
Speaker 10: I think like if you look at Philadelphia to get
20:01
Speaker 10: them over the hump, they kind of went all in
20:03
Speaker 10: a few years ago, and I think we need to
20:06
Speaker 10: kind of do a little bit more of the same idea.
20:09
Speaker 1: When did Philly go all in? You mean to win
20:11
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl that year? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, now that
20:16
Speaker 1: approach and the Rams did it too. That that approach
20:18
Speaker 1: has proven to work, it also proves sometimes that it
20:21
Speaker 1: doesn't work too. I mean, like, not everybody wins, and
20:23
Speaker 1: that's a lot of people that are aggressive. I think
20:26
Speaker 1: the Cowboys have been aggressive, I mean I really do.
20:27
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys have tried to make moves to
20:31
Speaker 1: get to this point. It's not always in free agency,
20:35
Speaker 1: but it's not always March in free agency. I mean,
20:38
Speaker 1: this team has shown in the last few years to
20:40
Speaker 1: go get some veteran guys, some veteran names, and adam
20:43
Speaker 1: to the list to try to help the team. I mean,
20:46
Speaker 1: sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. I mean, these thirty
20:50
Speaker 1: or forty signings that you see, in my opinion, five
20:53
Speaker 1: of them are going to be good. Of the thirty
20:55
Speaker 1: guys that you've seen, five of them are going to
20:57
Speaker 1: be good and probably worth the money that they're getting. Five.
21:01
Speaker 1: That's that's my opinion. I could be wrong, but it's
21:04
Speaker 1: usually not. I mean, everyone's excited in Philly about you know,
21:08
Speaker 1: say Kwon Barkley, and I get it. I mean, that's
21:10
Speaker 1: that's he's a big name. But every one of these guys,
21:15
Speaker 1: you know, they got something to them, they got they
21:16
Speaker 1: got some kind of issue. Look at all the Cowboys
21:19
Speaker 1: free agents. They're free agents for a reason. They got
21:21
Speaker 1: something there that you're like, well, Durrance, you know, be oddish,
21:25
Speaker 1: Tyrant's been hurt, you know, I mean all these things.
21:28
Speaker 1: But I don't know. I mean, I I just I
21:31
Speaker 1: kind of disagree a little bit with the fact that
21:33
Speaker 1: they haven't really been aggressive. I just they're not aggressive
21:37
Speaker 1: on the first two days of free agency, so it
21:39
Speaker 1: looks like they're doing nothing. But you know they've signed
21:43
Speaker 1: two players, three players.
21:44
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, no, And I agree in that sense, But
21:48
Speaker 10: it's what's I mean outside of like Stephan Gilmore, which
21:51
Speaker 10: they kind of traded for. Yeah, you know, you got
21:53
Speaker 10: to look at some names that they got to bring
21:56
Speaker 10: in that's going to like put them over to hump.
21:58
Speaker 10: And I find the guys that bring in a free agent, see,
22:00
Speaker 10: they're like role players. They're like you know, backups or
22:04
Speaker 10: third stringers kind of guys that they're just kind of
22:07
Speaker 10: coming in. And I think when you look in the playoffs,
22:11
Speaker 10: the way I see it, it's like they have to
22:13
Speaker 10: kind of get like playing makers that are going to
22:16
Speaker 10: be you know, impact players, and it doesn't have to
22:20
Speaker 10: be like shutdown corners. You know, Like I don't think
22:23
Speaker 10: Bland is a shutdown corner. I think he's a playmaking corner.
22:26
Speaker 10: You know that's gonna give up a big play, but
22:30
Speaker 10: make a big play right, And you know, I think
22:32
Speaker 10: you need more of that kind of uh, more of
22:36
Speaker 10: that kind of impact I think on our team where
22:38
Speaker 10: I just don't feel like we have it. It's like
22:41
Speaker 10: and it's a struggle, like and you know, it's not
22:43
Speaker 10: like you can go where they say you can't go
22:44
Speaker 10: to the grocery store and get you know, a left tackle.
22:47
Speaker 10: You know, Oh this is I want a Pro Bowl
22:49
Speaker 10: left tackle. Let's just go buy one, right right? Wow,
22:52
Speaker 10: it doesn't happen like that.
22:53
Speaker 1: No, it doesn't. And you know, and I appreciate the call.
22:57
Speaker 1: Who we got Mark, Mark and Knab Sorry a little
23:00
Speaker 1: flustered here, all right, Mark and Kenn. You know, I
23:04
Speaker 1: kind of disagree with some of that. I think it's both.
23:08
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think you're you're you're wrong in
23:11
Speaker 1: that you want to see some playmakers here in free agency.
23:14
Speaker 1: But and I'm not picking on this guy.
23:18
Speaker 10: I'm not.
23:18
Speaker 1: It's just it's setting the bar. Is Dorance Armstrong a playmaker?
23:22
Speaker 1: I mean, seriously, is he a playmaker? Because he gets
23:26
Speaker 1: fifteen million dollars a year? Like that's that's the contract.
23:29
Speaker 1: That's where we are. When you sign a guy to
23:31
Speaker 1: the first or second day a free agency and when
23:33
Speaker 1: you have ninety million like Washington had and they earned
23:35
Speaker 1: that ninety million by sucking for a few years. I mean,
23:38
Speaker 1: that's just the way it is. They've been a bad
23:40
Speaker 1: football team. That's why you get the number two overall pick,
23:43
Speaker 1: because you're not good. And so that's what dan Quinn
23:46
Speaker 1: is there to do to try to get them better.
23:48
Speaker 1: And he got a lot of money, so you can overpay.
23:51
Speaker 1: And I'll say that they overpaid for a guy like
23:54
Speaker 1: Dortan Armstrong or Tyler Battish or all that. Fowler. I
23:57
Speaker 1: don't know what he got, but you know there's spending
24:00
Speaker 1: that money and and and good for them, But that
24:02
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that you're getting a playmaker sa Kwan Barkley.
24:06
Speaker 1: That's not necessarily sure that you're that the Eagles are
24:09
Speaker 1: getting a playmaker in that Henry to to the Ravens,
24:13
Speaker 1: I mean, like or Eric Hendricks here. Let's be honest.
24:17
Speaker 1: I mean, just because Eric Hendricks has been good doesn't
24:19
Speaker 1: mean he's going to be good. We've seen a lot
24:22
Speaker 1: of linebackers, veteran linebackers over the years that signed here.
24:27
Speaker 1: Keith Brooking was pretty goods at Thomas Hall of Famer,
24:30
Speaker 1: but I mean he wasn't a Hall of Famer for
24:32
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, you know, so you don't know what you're
24:35
Speaker 1: gonna get here. At the end of the of a
24:37
Speaker 1: guy's career. That's all I'm saying. So my point is
24:40
Speaker 1: is that you're worried about getting playmakers, and you're not
24:43
Speaker 1: worried about these these nice you know. I think that's
24:45
Speaker 1: what Mark just said. You're getting these guys that come
24:47
Speaker 1: in and fill a role, role players. You don't think
24:50
Speaker 1: those guys matter. I mean they they definitely matter. You
24:53
Speaker 1: have to have those guys. Look at look at Philly
24:58
Speaker 1: last year, very top heavy, a lot of great players
25:01
Speaker 1: at the top of their position, but you know, they
25:04
Speaker 1: had a lot of injuries and then they struggled down
25:06
Speaker 1: the stretch. That's how you lose six out of seven
25:08
Speaker 1: games because you don't have the depth. The Cowboys have
25:10
Speaker 1: been there too, where they have a lot of big names,
25:13
Speaker 1: but they don't have a lot of depth one to
25:15
Speaker 1: fifty three. And that's what I think is important. It's
25:18
Speaker 1: important to sign guys like like Jordan Lewis, you know,
25:21
Speaker 1: get him done, things like that. So I don't know,
25:24
Speaker 1: I mean, you got a balance. You just got to
25:27
Speaker 1: have a good balance. Oh, let's go back to Chris
25:29
Speaker 1: and Mississippi's back on the line and see what is
25:31
Speaker 1: connecting looks like.
25:33
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it's a little better. I was trying
25:34
Speaker 6: to do something else on my phone at the same time,
25:36
Speaker 6: and I think that's what happened. But what I was
25:40
Speaker 6: going to say was is I was trying to get
25:42
Speaker 6: to you when you were talking about Bobby Wagner Friday,
25:45
Speaker 6: and I'm like, please, no, please, no. I'm tired of
25:49
Speaker 6: seeing us pick up people at the end of their
25:51
Speaker 6: career and then they not do anything. Here we just did,
25:54
Speaker 6: and I have I mean, I just have a feelam mess.
25:57
Speaker 6: What's gonna happen this year with him?
26:00
Speaker 4: About Eric Hendricks, I mean, I don't know.
26:04
Speaker 6: I don't know a whole lot about Eric Kendricks, but
26:06
Speaker 6: I know that that's what I was trying to do
26:09
Speaker 6: when I lost you. I was trying to look him
26:11
Speaker 6: up and see everything. But I mean, I don't know
26:13
Speaker 6: a whole lot about him. But you know you're you
26:16
Speaker 6: were talking when I got off. I could hear you
26:18
Speaker 6: still about the Dak thing. And honestly, I'm not one
26:23
Speaker 6: of those people that thinks we should resign that. The
26:26
Speaker 6: thing that I love about that is his leadership. Yeah,
26:29
Speaker 6: but I think that we should make him pay play
26:32
Speaker 6: for it, and if he wants it, then he needs
26:34
Speaker 6: to play great again two years in a row, and
26:36
Speaker 6: let's let's go from there. I mean, if we have
26:38
Speaker 6: to pay him seventy, we have to pay him seventy.
26:40
Speaker 6: But I'll give you a hot take. And this is
26:44
Speaker 6: just me, and I think you know this from my
26:45
Speaker 6: calls on this show. I honestly like my opinion just
26:49
Speaker 6: because he's such a distraction and who he is, and
26:52
Speaker 6: he can't stop the run. He plays one one style
26:56
Speaker 6: of ball and he doesn't want to play everything else
26:59
Speaker 6: and wants that like he's the best thing in the world.
27:00
Speaker 6: I think we should take Michael Parsons and trading for
27:03
Speaker 6: two number ones and move on our way and find
27:05
Speaker 6: somebody else. That's just my opinion. Now that may blow
27:08
Speaker 6: your show up, and people may call and say he's
27:11
Speaker 6: crazy and he's lost his mind. If you're the.
27:13
Speaker 1: Second person on this show today and we're only thirty
27:15
Speaker 1: minutes old, you're the second person that said that it's
27:19
Speaker 1: it's not so hot, you know what I mean. It's
27:21
Speaker 1: a it's a warm take because there's people that you're honestly,
27:26
Speaker 1: it's surprising to me, but yeah, there's a lot of
27:28
Speaker 1: people that think that way, and you know, there might
27:31
Speaker 1: be you know, I hear it in the media. I
27:34
Speaker 1: hear it. I'm in the building. It's not It's not
27:37
Speaker 1: the craziest thing that's ever happened, you know, DeMarcus Ware,
27:42
Speaker 1: I don't ever remember anyone ever saying we should just
27:45
Speaker 1: trade where. I mean, like, and I'm you know, and
27:47
Speaker 1: I think Mike is even you know, better than where
27:50
Speaker 1: at this point.
27:50
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, I think Mike's special, honestly, I do,
27:53
Speaker 6: but I think it's his mouth. He's almost like a
27:55
Speaker 6: Teo and stuff like that, and a Randy Moss where
27:58
Speaker 6: he talks too much and he's out here too much.
28:00
Speaker 6: You know what, As I leave the show ahead, as
28:04
Speaker 6: I leave the show, almost ask you one thing I
28:07
Speaker 6: want to know. I know that there was a Missippi
28:09
Speaker 6: State player drafted before Dak and he was on the
28:12
Speaker 6: practice squad. I wanted to know if you knew who
28:14
Speaker 6: that was. And I think there was another one back
28:17
Speaker 6: in the either in the seventies or the eighties that
28:20
Speaker 6: was drafted for Missippi State. But I wanted to ask
28:22
Speaker 6: you who was the first person ever drafted by the
28:24
Speaker 6: Cowboys to play at Missippi State. Y'all have a good.
28:27
Speaker 1: Day, all right? Is this like a trivia question, are
28:31
Speaker 1: you are you? Are you asking? I mean, honestly, I
28:34
Speaker 1: can't think of other Mississippi State players that played in
28:39
Speaker 1: the Cowboy I mean for the Cowboys, really for a
28:42
Speaker 1: lot many teams. I mean, I mean Eric Molds from
28:46
Speaker 1: the Bills, you know, I mean, like, uh, maybe Fletcher Cox. No,
28:50
Speaker 1: not Fletcher Cox. I can't. I can't, honestly, I don't
28:53
Speaker 1: know a ton of Mississippi State players that played in there.
28:58
Speaker 1: There was a corner that played I think he played
29:02
Speaker 1: for the for the Redskins and the Vikings. I can't
29:07
Speaker 1: remember his name, but I could see his face. But
29:09
Speaker 1: he played Atssissippi State also, But he was one of
29:12
Speaker 1: those guys at Minnesota was on the boat. I know
29:14
Speaker 1: that back then and just google that one. But Cowboysissippi
29:18
Speaker 1: State don't know. I can't. I can't think of anybody
29:21
Speaker 1: that that played there or even on the practice squad.
29:24
Speaker 1: So all right, let's go. Let's go to the Sebastian
29:28
Speaker 1: in Savannah, Georgia.
29:30
Speaker 7: Man, man, man, how are we doing in the cree Men?
29:34
Speaker 7: I've been blowing your phone up for about a week now.
29:38
Speaker 14: Listen, I'm listening to the show.
29:40
Speaker 7: Right and I actually had to listen back. I mentioned
29:42
Speaker 7: my name the first time I'm listening. I'm like, you know, okay,
29:45
Speaker 7: honorable mentions. I might make the honorable mention section. I've
29:47
Speaker 7: caught a bunch of times. So I get through honorable mentions.
29:50
Speaker 7: Third Team, I'm like, all right, that's it. I'm not
29:52
Speaker 7: on the team and that's all good. So then I
29:54
Speaker 7: go and missed it because I was watching a car
29:56
Speaker 7: at the time. Come back and I watched the show back,

30:14
Speaker 7: Eric Hendrix is with the team or not.
30:15
Speaker 8: But that's really cool. But you know, but just a

30:54
Speaker 7: I was just saying, shout out to you know, Big Rob,
30:57
Speaker 7: Captain Rob of course, and everybody, Eric, and I think

31:09
Speaker 1: Awesome. Well I appreciate that. I mean, you guys, I
31:12
Speaker 1: think you guys you're thinking me, but I mean, this
31:15
Speaker 1: is what the show is about, is you guys calling
31:16
Speaker 1: and calling consistently and having great takes. I mean, like
31:19
Speaker 1: that's one thing I keep hearing from other people that
31:22
Speaker 1: just say, wow, I didn't realize how how intelligent the
31:26
Speaker 1: fans are.
31:26
Speaker 14: Now.
31:27
Speaker 1: There are some every now and again that they're head scratchers,
31:29
Speaker 1: but for the most part, and you guys have some
31:31
Speaker 1: really really good takes, thoughtful stuff, thoughtful solutions. What about this,
31:36
Speaker 1: you know, And that's that's what it's about. So I enjoyed.
31:39
Speaker 1: It's my favorite part of the day. It has been
31:40
Speaker 1: since we started, and it really hasn't changed.
31:43
Speaker 7: Well, mister Eatman, just to you know, shine some light
31:46
Speaker 7: on you as well. We're fans of you as well.
31:48
Speaker 7: So in order to be a fan of Nick Eatman,
31:50
Speaker 7: you have to be somewhat intelligent to begin with, you know,
31:53
Speaker 7: especially if you're going to stand toe to toe and
31:55
Speaker 7: actually have a conversation with you. But we appreciate you
31:58
Speaker 7: and what you've done obviously, fans. That's why your fans
32:01
Speaker 7: are so smart. You hear some of the fans in
32:02
Speaker 7: the other show. It's just be a little talking many
32:04
Speaker 7: at times, but we have consistently great callers on this show.
32:08
Speaker 7: Shout out to all of them. And Rob is literally
32:10
Speaker 7: the heart and soul of last season man. He spoke
32:13
Speaker 7: from like the place where a lot of us are
32:15
Speaker 7: afraid to stay on the radio and stuff like that,
32:17
Speaker 7: so that's always really cool to.
32:18
Speaker 15: Hear him speak.
32:18
Speaker 7: Yeah, and I'm glad that everybody made it too. But
32:20
Speaker 7: I'm gonna get out the son.
32:21
Speaker 8: You guys have a great day.
32:22
Speaker 3: Thank you so much.
32:23
Speaker 1: Thank you, Sebastian Man. I got him, fool, Chris. I
32:27
Speaker 1: mean sometimes I say some pretty dumb stuff every now
32:31
Speaker 1: and again, but now that's it's cool. It's been fun, okay,
32:36
Speaker 1: all right? If I say it, you know what I mean.
32:40
Speaker 1: If I say it, I don't need you. It's slipped.
32:42
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. There you go. Yeah, what are you doing
32:45
Speaker 1: back there? All right? The call lines are open, I
32:48
Speaker 1: believe eight eight eight eight, five five two two nine seven.
32:52
Speaker 1: You know, we had twelve or thirteen calls yesterday Tuesday. Sorry,
32:58
Speaker 1: and uh, and there are a lot of the heavy hitters,
33:02
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of the ones that call all
33:03
Speaker 1: the time. And uh, we've had six so far and
33:08
Speaker 1: nobody so far. This is the new year. This is
33:10
Speaker 1: the second season of Cowboys Storyline, season two. If you're
33:14
Speaker 1: scoring a home like Garreck does, uh, season season two,
33:18
Speaker 1: episode two, and we don't have a repeat caller, Well,
33:22
Speaker 1: I say that and then boom, look at this. Sorry,
33:25
Speaker 1: let's go to the line. Ronnie in New Jersey.
33:29
Speaker 14: Hey, Nick, how you doing?
33:30
Speaker 1: What's up? Back to back? Called on Tuesday, called on
33:33
Speaker 1: just as I was saying, no repeat callers yet, Ronnie,
33:36
Speaker 1: You're in the league for the whole year. You're up.
33:40
Speaker 10: To go through.
33:41
Speaker 14: I called like fifty times right now, and I was like,
33:43
Speaker 14: oh man, I'm not going to make it.
33:45
Speaker 1: You made it.
33:46
Speaker 6: Pick up?
33:47
Speaker 11: Uh?
33:48
Speaker 14: Nick, Uh. You know everybody's going a little bit crazy.
33:52
Speaker 14: I don't know why. I mean, I get it. I've
33:54
Speaker 14: been a fan for so long, but with free agency,
33:57
Speaker 14: this is what we do every year. So so I
33:59
Speaker 14: think I insu Like Aaron Rodgers said one year, just
34:03
Speaker 14: be las man, just be lased. I want these sensive tackles.
34:08
Speaker 14: You're not gonna get high priced defensive tackles on the
34:11
Speaker 14: first day. You're not gonna overpay for a run stuffer
34:13
Speaker 14: on the first day. Let's get run stuffers. And like
34:18
Speaker 14: in the draft, I want a big censor, a powerful
34:22
Speaker 14: center beyond he's going to do to Washington. I was
34:26
Speaker 14: glad to see him go. Honestly, I was glad they
34:29
Speaker 14: took him that he's not gonna be our problem anymore.
34:32
Speaker 14: Let him be you know, their weakness offensive line. I
34:36
Speaker 14: would love to see if they could get Tyron Smith back,
34:38
Speaker 14: if they could get both Smiths back together and draft
34:43
Speaker 14: I will move up in the draft if you had
34:45
Speaker 14: to pick up that that that center, the best center
34:48
Speaker 14: in the draft. Aside from that draft offensive lineman, A
34:53
Speaker 14: linebacker would be nice. We just picked up Kendricks right
34:57
Speaker 14: from we used to be in Minnesota. H That's all
35:01
Speaker 14: I want. Just get get, get the groceries, get the
35:04
Speaker 14: main groceries, everything else, you know, whatever is the topics.
35:09
Speaker 10: Let's get.
35:10
Speaker 14: Let's get our potato, let's get Let's get what we need,
35:13
Speaker 14: which is bunks, offers and a big old lineman. That's it.
35:18
Speaker 14: Get Tyrn Smith back, That's all I want. What do
35:20
Speaker 14: you think that's that? Do you see Tyron Smith coming back?
35:23
Speaker 14: That's one thing I wanted to ask you. It doesn't
35:25
Speaker 14: seem like he's getting too many uh you know, uh,
35:29
Speaker 14: attention towards him.
35:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, what are you think? All right, Ronnie, appreciate that.
35:34
Speaker 7: You know.
35:34
Speaker 1: Stephen Jones just was was doing an event at the
35:38
Speaker 1: stadium and reporters were there and asked him some questions
35:41
Speaker 1: on Patrick Walker was out there and and basically what
35:44
Speaker 1: you know Steven said, and no surprise, just that the
35:46
Speaker 1: door is still open for Tyron. And and obviously this
35:50
Speaker 1: is you know, this is what free agency is. It
35:52
Speaker 1: starts out the money. You know, agents and players have
35:54
Speaker 1: maybe this in mind, and when that doesn't happen, it
35:57
Speaker 1: comes down, the price comes down. I mean, that's that's
36:01
Speaker 1: that's the cycle of free agency. It's what happens. And
36:04
Speaker 1: so you know, I think that it'll have to come
36:07
Speaker 1: down to the point to the part where it makes
36:09
Speaker 1: sense for the Cowboys. I think it's a big move though,
36:13
Speaker 1: if they did it, I mean like it would be
36:14
Speaker 1: one I got asked the other day we did a
36:16
Speaker 1: mail bag, what's the one player you would sign any
36:19
Speaker 1: of your unrestricted free agents? And I would, I said Tyron,
36:23
Speaker 1: because I think what that does It gives you so
36:26
Speaker 1: much flexibility after that to say, all right, this is
36:30
Speaker 1: where we're gonna play, uh, Tyler Smith, and then we
36:33
Speaker 1: can keep TJ. Bass as a development player and all that,
36:37
Speaker 1: and and then you know, we can still draft a
36:39
Speaker 1: tackle because then if something happens to Tyrant or Tyler,
36:43
Speaker 1: you know, injury, you've got some you've got some some
36:45
Speaker 1: moving parts there. You can put the tackle out here
36:47
Speaker 1: or maybe move you know, just think of like you're think.
36:51
Speaker 1: If you re sign Tyron, You've got Tyler at guard. Okay,
36:55
Speaker 1: knock on wood, something were to happen in in in
36:57
Speaker 1: a game or you know, early in the week and
37:00
Speaker 1: you lose Tyron Smith, that left tackle, then you make
37:03
Speaker 1: the decision we drafted a tackle, is it better to
37:06
Speaker 1: play him or is it better to swing Tyler out
37:08
Speaker 1: and put TJ. Bass in? You know who's going to
37:10
Speaker 1: be our best five. But that's what having a Tyron
37:13
Speaker 1: Smith does is what he's healthy, He's he's really good.
37:16
Speaker 1: He's Pro Bowl, all pro level still at this point.
37:19
Speaker 1: That's why I would I would try to sign him.
37:21
Speaker 1: But if if we think he's a Pro Bowl level
37:24
Speaker 1: right now, his agent and and you know does as well,
37:27
Speaker 1: and they're trying to get that money for for him.
37:29
Speaker 1: So but I that's that's kind of what I would do,
37:33
Speaker 1: uh there. And you know, and I like, I like
37:35
Speaker 1: what you're saying about defensive tackle. I mean, Hankins would
37:39
Speaker 1: be great to resign him. You know, he has said
37:41
Speaker 1: he wants to come back. Of course, the money's got
37:43
Speaker 1: to be right, but I like him as well. And
37:46
Speaker 1: speaking of defensive tackles, and I'm speaking to Chris in
37:49
Speaker 1: Mississippi here. It was just alerted to me Willie Blade
37:53
Speaker 1: Willi Blade was a third round pick back in two
37:56
Speaker 1: thousand and one. I think, well, he was Mississippi State,
38:02
Speaker 1: so didn't really pan out, didn't do a whole lot.
38:05
Speaker 1: He was a big, big dude, you know, he was
38:07
Speaker 1: a big guy, but he didn't really he wasn't really
38:10
Speaker 1: I don't know how how effective he was. He might
38:12
Speaker 1: have been one of those guys that was a draft
38:14
Speaker 1: that they drafted a lot of players, a lot of
38:16
Speaker 1: really good players that ended up in the Arena League.
38:19
Speaker 1: That might have been one, but I don't know if
38:20
Speaker 1: he played in the Arena League or not. All right,
38:22
Speaker 1: let's go to Irwin and Denver.
38:26
Speaker 16: Hey, what's going on next?
38:27
Speaker 10: How you doing?
38:28
Speaker 1: I'm good? How are you doing good?
38:30
Speaker 16: Little Snowy up here today?
38:32
Speaker 1: All right?
38:33
Speaker 16: Yeah, so I apologize for all the listeners and to
38:37
Speaker 16: you and Chris, but I caught half the show. I'm
38:39
Speaker 16: not really sure who all's talked about what, but just
38:44
Speaker 16: kind of picking up what you were talking about, Tyron Smith,
38:46
Speaker 16: be really good if we could kind of sign him,
38:48
Speaker 16: and then the other thing I'd like to see the
38:50
Speaker 16: Cowboys do is somehow some way get a really good
38:54
Speaker 16: center this year in the draft. I know there's about
38:56
Speaker 16: three of them that they could target, possibly, you know,
39:00
Speaker 16: then possibly get a line back in the second round,
39:03
Speaker 16: and then you know, I don't know where we would
39:06
Speaker 16: how they feel about the running back from Texas, but
39:09
Speaker 16: I think he would be a really good pick up.
39:11
Speaker 16: But one thing I wanted to speak about Tyron Smith is,
39:14
Speaker 16: and I don't know what you think about this, but
39:16
Speaker 16: I don't think there's another team in the league that's
39:19
Speaker 16: gonna cater to I don't know if catering is the
39:22
Speaker 16: right word, but you know how the Cowboys pretty much
39:25
Speaker 16: let him have the entire week off for the most part.
39:29
Speaker 16: The Cowboys know his issues, the doctors and everything, and
39:32
Speaker 16: that I don't really know if another team's gonna, you know,
39:35
Speaker 16: really let Tyron Smith take you know, that much time
39:39
Speaker 16: off and then go on Sundays and play like the
39:41
Speaker 16: Cowboys have this past year. And I'm gonna what are
39:45
Speaker 16: your thoughts on that?
39:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know what another team would do there.
39:50
Speaker 1: I mean, I would think if if if you if
39:52
Speaker 1: you're like, hey, this guy's had injury issues. You know,
39:55
Speaker 1: I just think they would. I think you talk to
39:58
Speaker 1: the coaches and you had those meetings, you're like, how
40:00
Speaker 1: do we get you know, how do we get him
40:02
Speaker 1: at the right level? You know, And and maybe it's
40:05
Speaker 1: even a call to the Cowboys trainers. I don't know
40:07
Speaker 1: if they they talk like that, but it's like, well,
40:09
Speaker 1: this is what we did and this is what worked.
40:11
Speaker 1: And Tyrone's going to say the same thing. You know,
40:13
Speaker 1: It's like it helped me. Now, you know, he kind
40:17
Speaker 1: of knows the system a little bit, but it's still
40:20
Speaker 1: relatively you know, it's like new coach, was a new
40:22
Speaker 1: offensive line coach at scheme and and a new offense really,
40:26
Speaker 1: so it's not like he's been here for you know,
40:29
Speaker 1: the whole time with the same terminology and all that.
40:32
Speaker 1: He had to learn some things too, But you know, Tyron,
40:35
Speaker 1: you know, he knows he knows what to do and
40:37
Speaker 1: how to block on the left side and and and
40:39
Speaker 1: what they're trying to do and and so once he
40:41
Speaker 1: kind of figured that out, and and and you know,
40:43
Speaker 1: he was there enough at training camp to kind of
40:45
Speaker 1: get a good feel for it. And then and then
40:47
Speaker 1: it works. It's not like you you go to six
40:49
Speaker 1: Flags when you're not practicing. I mean, you're here, you're
40:52
Speaker 1: in the meetings, you know, you're you're you're sometimes you're
40:55
Speaker 1: even out there too. You're just the wear and tear
40:58
Speaker 1: on your bodies. It is not not the same aim.
41:00
Speaker 1: So the mental reps for a veteran like Tyrant is
41:04
Speaker 1: still valuable too. So I think I think if you
41:07
Speaker 1: went somewhere else and said, this is what made me
41:10
Speaker 1: turn around last year and have a really good season,
41:13
Speaker 1: and this is why what you're paying for. You want that,
41:16
Speaker 1: you want that player that was a second team All Pro.
41:19
Speaker 1: This is what takes to get there. I mean, I
41:21
Speaker 1: don't think I think a coach would be foolish to
41:23
Speaker 1: sit there and be like, no, no, either you play
41:25
Speaker 1: or you're out. That's that doesn't work like them. All right,
41:29
Speaker 1: let's go to Zach in Mobile, Alabama.
41:33
Speaker 15: Yes, what's up, Nick?
41:34
Speaker 1: How you doing?
41:36
Speaker 15: Good man?
41:36
Speaker 4: First time caller, finally got we go. My wife's gonna
41:41
Speaker 4: stop making fun of me because they're saying, I'm like
41:43
Speaker 4: a crazy girl trying to call you.
41:46
Speaker 10: But at least she.
41:47
Speaker 1: At least she called it that like it's a crazy girl,
41:50
Speaker 1: not the crazy guy. Yeah, exactly exactly. Well you got through.
41:54
Speaker 15: Yeah, I got through, man, I got through. So I
41:56
Speaker 15: just had a few things I wanted to talk about,
41:59
Speaker 15: trying to all in on Tuesday, but first I wanted
42:02
Speaker 15: to touch on Dak like I've been I'm thirty eight,
42:05
Speaker 15: so I've kind of I've been a Cowboy my whole life,
42:08
Speaker 15: like staying my whole life. So I kind of came
42:10
Speaker 15: in at the end of the Cowboys era. But I
42:12
Speaker 15: mean I remember going out to Wichita Falls, the training
42:15
Speaker 15: camp and stuff with Dyond and so I remember those years,
42:19
Speaker 15: you know, the Quincy cars and Drew Hinton, all those
42:21
Speaker 15: years until Romo came about. To me, it just kills
42:25
Speaker 15: me as a Cowboys fan.
42:25
Speaker 10: Man.
42:26
Speaker 15: So many of our fans are just They're worse than
42:28
Speaker 15: Eagles fans. They hate on their own players. I think, Okay,
42:32
Speaker 15: if you want to get rid of Dak, okay, get
42:35
Speaker 15: rid of them, But then, what, like, what's your plan.
42:37
Speaker 15: I think we have a good enough team that we
42:39
Speaker 15: can advance deeper in the playoffs. I think that what's
42:42
Speaker 15: been holding us back is you know, scheme, injury, time management,
42:47
Speaker 15: a lot of coaching. I just don't think it's all
42:50
Speaker 15: on Dak. So that was the first thing I wanted
42:53
Speaker 15: to touch.
42:54
Speaker 1: Touch and I agree with you. It's never all on
42:57
Speaker 1: the quarterback. And when they win, it's not always because
43:00
Speaker 1: of him. So yeah, exactly, and yeah, I agree with you.
43:04
Speaker 15: And to me, like, you know, like I call her
43:06
Speaker 15: earlier said that he thinks that Dak will get signed
43:08
Speaker 15: by the end of the week, which I don't think
43:10
Speaker 15: that's the case. But also, you know, if I was Dak, like,
43:14
Speaker 15: does Dak want to resign? You know, you know, So
43:18
Speaker 15: it's it's both sides here. And the second thing I
43:21
Speaker 15: want to touch on was the callers saying we should
43:24
Speaker 15: trade Michael Parsons. That just blows my mind. He's a
43:27
Speaker 15: generational talent. Yeah he runs his mouth, but I just
43:31
Speaker 15: think that's that's that's insane. Just just don't know why
43:35
Speaker 15: anybody won't think that, you know. So that's my opinion.
43:41
Speaker 1: Well, good good stuff. I like it. Mike. I'm sorry, Zach,
43:45
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. The next caller is Mike, But Zach, I
43:47
Speaker 1: appreciate the call and the first time caller, And you know,
43:50
Speaker 1: I I agree with you on Dak. I agree with
43:53
Speaker 1: you on Micah. I understand what the fans are thinking.
43:58
Speaker 1: But anytime you trade some one or you trade anything,
44:01
Speaker 1: you know, you trade in your car, I mean, anything
44:04
Speaker 1: you trade, you're basically like, all right, this is the
44:07
Speaker 1: best it's going to be. And I think I can
44:09
Speaker 1: get more in money or or return or whatever than
44:13
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna get if I if I stay with this.
44:16
Speaker 1: And that's the tricky part with with Micah, because you know,
44:20
Speaker 1: people mature, people grow up, they get it. And I think,
44:25
Speaker 1: you know, and someone said he's gonna be like t
44:28
Speaker 1: O and Randy Moss, Well what color jackets are they?
44:34
Speaker 1: I mean, you kind of deal with it, you know,
44:39
Speaker 1: And and I'm gonna I'm gonna tell a story after
44:42
Speaker 1: after the call here. But but Zach, great call, Appreciate that,
44:46
Speaker 1: and and calls again, calls back, you know, is it
44:51
Speaker 1: always reminds me of Mike Is Mike is like, you know,
44:54
Speaker 1: if he's referred to as t O. I mean, I
44:56
Speaker 1: know I've told this story before, but I love I
44:58
Speaker 1: love the John Madden story that he told when he
45:01
Speaker 1: went to training camp back in two thousand and six.
45:03
Speaker 1: It was the first year that that t O was
45:05
Speaker 1: there and Madden shows up, you know, the camp and Auxnard,
45:09
Speaker 1: and they asked him, what do you think? You know,
45:12
Speaker 1: the media was like, what do you think about t o?
45:14
Speaker 1: You know, and he's a great player, and he goes
45:16
Speaker 1: he's a he's a check the tires guy, and everyone
45:20
Speaker 1: kind of looked at each other like what does this
45:21
Speaker 1: check the tires guy? I mean he's like, well, you know,
45:23
Speaker 1: when you when you're on a road trip, you know,
45:26
Speaker 1: and the team, the team gets on the bus and
45:28
Speaker 1: and you know, the coaches like is everyone here, Like no,
45:31
Speaker 1: we're missing someone, Like who are missing? Like Johnson like
45:34
Speaker 1: you know what, tough, We're gone. You know, he'll have
45:38
Speaker 1: to figure out his way like, oh, we're missing another
45:40
Speaker 1: guy who Terrell Owens mm hmmm. And that's when you
45:44
Speaker 1: tell the bus driver, will you go out and check
45:46
Speaker 1: the tires a little bit, make sure the air is good,
45:48
Speaker 1: make sure you know you got it, got everything we need,
45:50
Speaker 1: and you know, we'll maybe we'll wait a few minutes
45:53
Speaker 1: here and there like that's that's that's what you do.
45:55
Speaker 1: You wait for a guy like that. You make exceptions
45:57
Speaker 1: to the rule for players like that. Michael Irvin is
46:01
Speaker 1: the epitome of that, you know, I mean he had third, fourth, fifth,
46:05
Speaker 1: chances because when he played football for the team, he
46:08
Speaker 1: was amazing and he was he was great for this team.
46:12
Speaker 1: Any kind of other issues that happen sometimes you deal
46:15
Speaker 1: with them. That's why this is not junior high. This
46:18
Speaker 1: is not high school where you want to treat everyone
46:20
Speaker 1: the same. No, you don't treat people the same because
46:23
Speaker 1: they don't play the same and so that's that's that's
46:26
Speaker 1: the reality of it. It's the same with your job too.
46:29
Speaker 1: There's people that get treated differently, probably because of what
46:32
Speaker 1: they do, you know, for the company. And that's the
46:34
Speaker 1: same with Michael. So you know, if you want to
46:36
Speaker 1: get rid of them, you better get a lot in return.
46:39
Speaker 1: But but you better do something with that as well.
46:42
Speaker 1: You know, just because you're going to get a first
46:43
Speaker 1: round pick, are you going to get another Massei Smith?
46:47
Speaker 1: You know, are you going to get a Byron Jones,
46:48
Speaker 1: a Layton Layton vander USh or are you gonna get
46:51
Speaker 1: a Micah Parson. So you want to trade Michael Parsons
46:53
Speaker 1: so you can get Micah Parsons. I mean, like it's risky.
46:56
Speaker 1: I get the point, But it's not always as easy
46:59
Speaker 1: as that. All right, let's go to Mike in Houston, Hey.
47:03
Speaker 8: Nick, the first time caller. It's a storyline.
47:08
Speaker 1: We are getting on of first time callers today. This
47:11
Speaker 1: is great. This is great, great news because it's our
47:14
Speaker 1: second show and and you know, starting to look like
47:16
Speaker 1: it was some of the same the same people, which
47:18
Speaker 1: is fine, that's great. But this, this this second year,
47:22
Speaker 1: I mean, what three or four the new first time
47:25
Speaker 1: callers today, it's awesome. Mike, what do you got?
47:27
Speaker 8: I just wanted to say I called you way back
47:30
Speaker 8: in the past once. Uh, when I became a draft
47:33
Speaker 8: you know, advocate, to go along with my Cowboys fandom.
47:36
Speaker 8: I called you to find out more about Macy Brooks,
47:38
Speaker 8: a fourth round pick from long ago. Uh. You always
47:42
Speaker 8: mentioned the old time picks or all old time players sometimes,
47:45
Speaker 8: so uh I think, Uh, he didn't turn out too good,
47:52
Speaker 8: but we were HEARDing so bad back then.
47:53
Speaker 6: I was.
47:54
Speaker 1: I was so hopeful.
47:55
Speaker 4: Uh.
47:55
Speaker 1: But us, that's a story. I'm not I'm not gonna
48:04
Speaker 1: tell the story. But Macy Brooks whide receiver James Maddens.
48:09
Speaker 8: From James Madison.
48:10
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I'll let you google what happened. Do
48:16
Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about? No, sir, okay, okay, Yeah,
48:19
Speaker 1: he had an injury, and let's put it in air
48:23
Speaker 1: quotes injury at training camp in nineteen ninety eight, it
48:28
Speaker 1: was Chann Gaily went to the press conference and explained
48:31
Speaker 1: the injury for Macon Brooks. But yeah, it's really not funny.
48:37
Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm laughing.
48:38
Speaker 9: As a guy.
48:38
Speaker 1: I want to say this as a guy. We shouldn't
48:42
Speaker 1: be laughing. I'm just gonna leave it at their Basey Brooks. Yeah,
48:45
Speaker 1: it didn't didn't do a lot for some reason. I
48:46
Speaker 1: think the Bears. Did he play for the Bears. He
48:48
Speaker 1: might have gone to the Bears always, or maybe he
48:51
Speaker 1: played against the Bears and had a game. I don't know,
48:53
Speaker 1: but I think of Mason Brooks, I think of James Madison,
48:56
Speaker 1: I think of that injury, and I think of the Bears.
48:58
Speaker 8: But yeah, just real quick too. It's like my first
49:01
Speaker 8: uh super quote unquote Fallow that I was such a
49:05
Speaker 8: fan of, and the Cowboys took was flowed out the
49:07
Speaker 8: hotel Adams. I thought he was easily a first round pick,
49:10
Speaker 8: and when he dropped to the second just because he
49:12
Speaker 8: couldn't hear from one ear, I think we got such
49:14
Speaker 8: a you know, obviously, such a value over the time
49:17
Speaker 8: but fun to just say the when My one thought is,
49:20
Speaker 8: like I noticed with the Cowboys with free agency. Of
49:23
Speaker 8: course they take it conservative to say the least, but
49:26
Speaker 8: I noticed also the trend that they liked to sign
49:28
Speaker 8: people who were cut more than just you know, true
49:31
Speaker 8: free agents. So the one that kind of popped in
49:34
Speaker 8: my head that you know, if they're only giving it
49:35
Speaker 8: one more year, maybe with this team, I thought a
49:38
Speaker 8: good fit might be, uh, if you're going to be
49:40
Speaker 8: trading or dropping a gallop soon. Unfortunately Magic with his
49:45
Speaker 8: feed on the sideline, But if you do cut him
49:48
Speaker 8: and let him go. I was thinking about like maybe
49:50
Speaker 8: a Mike Williams, like a one year ten million almost
49:53
Speaker 8: money for money. He'd compliment uh CD and cook so good,
49:59
Speaker 8: and you know, give him a chance to show that
50:01
Speaker 8: he can play healthy for a year. But uh, I
50:04
Speaker 8: don't know kind of even money, so you don't have
50:05
Speaker 8: a whole lot going back into the next year, which
50:08
Speaker 8: is there seems to be a big worry of their
50:09
Speaker 8: I just want to see what you thought on that.
50:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, the thing about contract is that the
50:15
Speaker 1: players have to sign them and and and I know
50:17
Speaker 1: you know that, but you know, as good as that
50:20
Speaker 1: that would sound for for a guy like Mike Williams
50:23
Speaker 1: or somebody like that. I mean, you know, they signed
50:26
Speaker 1: a big deal and they're probably looking for another one.
50:29
Speaker 1: You know, maybe maybe it's not going to be is
50:31
Speaker 1: what it was before, but but it would probably be
50:34
Speaker 1: more than just just a one year deal. But but
50:36
Speaker 1: you see it happen. I mean, you see these guys
50:38
Speaker 1: signing one year deals. I would think he would probably
50:41
Speaker 1: warrant a little bit more than that. And also what
50:43
Speaker 1: you're saying about money for money, it it doesn't that's
50:49
Speaker 1: not that doesn't work for the Cowboys as much because
50:51
Speaker 1: they don't want to spend that money. You know. That
50:55
Speaker 1: was the problem with Gallup is that they they wanted,
50:58
Speaker 1: you wanted more production for that. Maybe Mike Williams will
51:01
Speaker 1: get it, but I think that they're thinking, let's let's
51:04
Speaker 1: use that for something else. I mean, let's let's let
51:06
Speaker 1: the draft picks. We think about. Third round pick from
51:09
Speaker 1: Colorado State was Michael Gallup. Colorado State is not a
51:12
Speaker 1: small school, but they're you know, they're that they're not
51:15
Speaker 1: Power five and so you a couple of years later,
51:18
Speaker 1: you drafted uh Jalen Tolbert, third round pick South Alabama,
51:23
Speaker 1: same type of player, really and then now this is
51:26
Speaker 1: the cycle. It's you know, Gallup did his thing and
51:29
Speaker 1: now it's time for Tolbert to do his thing. And
51:31
Speaker 1: I think that's kind of what they're they're thinking here
51:33
Speaker 1: is that's how they're going to try to to get better,
51:37
Speaker 1: is keep developing these players. I'm not saying you just
51:40
Speaker 1: lean on the brock hoffbin at center, you lean on TJ. Bass,
51:44
Speaker 1: But you know, the draft pick guys like Sam Williams.
51:48
Speaker 1: That's the replacement for for Dorance and and you know Fallor.
51:53
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the replacement. Is the guys you drafted,
51:56
Speaker 1: the guys that have been complaining about not getting the
51:58
Speaker 1: playing time and all that, this is the time, this
52:01
Speaker 1: is this is what it is. I'm not saying that
52:03
Speaker 1: they're not gonna draft other guys or try to get
52:05
Speaker 1: free agency, but they have these You look at the
52:08
Speaker 1: draft the last couple of years. What I said all
52:11
Speaker 1: the time is no, it wasn't it wasn't great. But
52:15
Speaker 1: this is a good football team. These are twelve and
52:17
Speaker 1: five seasons. It's hard to just crack in on a
52:21
Speaker 1: roster that's really good. So just because you're a third
52:23
Speaker 1: round pick like a nay Sean Wright. That doesn't mean
52:26
Speaker 1: that you're just gonna come in and play right away.
52:28
Speaker 1: Because there was a there's a good roster. Now we're
52:31
Speaker 1: starting to see free agency take some them away, So
52:34
Speaker 1: these players are going to have to kind of step up.
52:37
Speaker 1: All right, Jeff in North Carolina, last caller, Jeff, you're there?
52:45
Speaker 16: All right?
52:48
Speaker 1: Turned down? Yeah, just turned turned down the radio or
52:51
Speaker 1: they he's looking at Macy's Brooks' injury. Which, Hi, Yeah,
52:56
Speaker 1: let's go, last caller, let's go. Let job, what's up?
53:00
Speaker 1: I'm good man. What do you got?
53:02
Speaker 5: Oh?
53:03
Speaker 9: Well, I won't keep you long.
53:04
Speaker 5: I didn't get to call him Tuesday. I know that
53:08
Speaker 5: was a long show. But but you know, this is
53:11
Speaker 5: what we all expected everything to be this way. You
53:14
Speaker 5: know that they I didn't think they go out and
53:16
Speaker 5: do a whole lot and uh And I'm glad they
53:19
Speaker 5: got Jordan Lewis back in the day. That'll help. But
53:22
Speaker 5: you know, I kind of I kind of get the
53:24
Speaker 5: feeling too, Nick, and that that that they may play
53:28
Speaker 5: this thing out and just see how it goes. And
53:31
Speaker 5: and because maybe you know my my my theory is
53:35
Speaker 5: they're going to try to get this line, the offensive line, rebuild,
53:39
Speaker 5: some clear out the cap, and then depending on how
53:43
Speaker 5: the season goes, maybe they move on from some other
53:46
Speaker 5: guys next year and just try to start this.
53:49
Speaker 8: Thing over again.
53:50
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know, I just uh, but you know,
53:53
Speaker 5: I wouldn't give Durrance fifteen thousand dollars, I mean they
53:57
Speaker 5: I mean, I wouldn't have done that there, But.
54:00
Speaker 1: Winn't give them fifteen thousand.
54:02
Speaker 9: I mean fifteen I'm kidding, kidding, fifteen million. Well, yeah,
54:08
Speaker 9: I would have done that.
54:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, I might have given fifty yeah, fifteen Yeah.
54:12
Speaker 5: But I just kind of get feelings that they're just
54:15
Speaker 5: gonna sit on that they try the stomach back's cap hit.
54:19
Speaker 5: Maybe they'll they'll restructure or something. But I just feel like,
54:22
Speaker 5: you know, because all that money is, like you said
54:24
Speaker 5: the other day, everything's going to be pushed in the
54:26
Speaker 5: next year and and so I mean, they may just
54:30
Speaker 5: have to go through this and just you know, maybe
54:34
Speaker 5: you know, they'll get a bunch of compics for all
54:36
Speaker 5: these guys losing so and so we'll see what they
54:39
Speaker 5: do next year. But that's kind of I'm starting to
54:42
Speaker 5: kind of feel that way that they may they may
54:44
Speaker 5: just write this thing out for a year and just
54:46
Speaker 5: see what happens.
54:47
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean definitely could uh, you know, thanks for
54:51
Speaker 1: the call, Jeff, Uh, you're you know, I think I
54:54
Speaker 1: think they're gonna attempt that they're going to attempt the
54:57
Speaker 1: writing it out. And then but you know, Stephen says
55:00
Speaker 1: this line for a reason and he gets you know,
55:02
Speaker 1: and people joke about it, but he says it. You
55:04
Speaker 1: know player, you know, a talent acquisition three hundred and
55:07
Speaker 1: sixty five days a year, I mean, and it's true.
55:09
Speaker 1: And so yeah, you say, we're just gonna go down
55:11
Speaker 1: the road, go down the road. And then the guy
55:12
Speaker 1: gets cut and you're like, you know what, this would
55:14
Speaker 1: be a good fit. He played for for this coach
55:17
Speaker 1: and he knows him, and now this would be great.
55:18
Speaker 1: And then you pick him up and you know, and
55:21
Speaker 1: so you're always making changes. If you just if you
55:24
Speaker 1: just got your blinders on, I mean, you're never gonna
55:27
Speaker 1: see obviously what's what's around you. So yeah, you want
55:29
Speaker 1: to focus, but at the same time, you always got
55:31
Speaker 1: your head on a swivel. And so I think that
55:33
Speaker 1: I think that approach is good. But I do think
55:35
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are gonna you know, they're always gonna make
55:37
Speaker 1: adjustments if needed. All Right, we got a heart out
55:40
Speaker 1: here at two o'clock. We're gonna leave right now. We'll
55:42
Speaker 1: be back on Tuesday for another edition a Cowboys Storyline.
55:46
Speaker 1: Great show, great callers, a lot of first time callers
55:48
Speaker 1: for Chris Beam. I'm Nick Eatman. We'll see you next
55:50
Speaker 1: week on Cowboys Storyline.
55:52
Speaker 2: This has been a production of Dallascowboys dot Com and
55:55
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
56:00
Speaker 13: Uh
