00:00your official home of the Dallas Cowboys and we start with Max Crosby off the board
00:06Bobby predicted on Friday using past NFL timelines that a Max Crosby deal would probably get done
00:13over the weekend and it is as Baltimore steps up with two first rounders to knock the Cowboys and
00:21everybody else out that's a lot it's a lot of assets to give up you know the Ravens feel they
00:27are a piece away Will McClay said there's no such thing as being a piece away tell us that but
00:33you
00:33know I don't believe that necessarily the Ravens thought they were one player away they make the
00:39two first round pick they make them available they give them I am totally fine with this I saw this
00:45I
00:46was like okay all right you know glad this is over because I did not want them to go they
00:54didn't want
00:54to be in those weeds I want to know part of those weeds Bobby we were trying to figure out
00:57who could
00:58jump the Cowboys with a pick better than either 12 or 20 and the Ravens kind of did it right
01:04there in
01:05between with number 14 in this year's draft and of course they'll give it the first rounder which they
01:10hope is very very low next year yeah and I mean it sounded like some of the teams that may
01:16have
01:17jumped you like the other teams that were involved in this at the end none of them had a pick
01:21better
01:22than you that you had Philly involved in this you had Baltimore involved in this there was I think
01:27the Jaguars were involved in this but outside of that it was it was Dallas and so the fact that
01:33you
01:34you weren't able to get it done I think this is ultimately the best of both worlds probably
01:38because you end up signaling and showing what you're willing to spend and being active and
01:44trying to negotiate for something but also knowing signaling no but also knowing the limit I don't think
01:50it's because I think they really thought they put forward an offer good enough to get it I don't
01:54even know virtue signaling is I just heard signaling so I threw that out there no but I think that
01:58it when you look at it I think it's it ultimately works out because people go okay they offered
02:04something significant they're willing to spend money they're willing to spend capital but they had a
02:09line and they didn't go past it that would have made everybody mad well you brought this up last night
02:13as a topic RJ and I agree people hate when I say this after a game I said it after
02:17they lost the
02:18Philadelphia in the opener the whole topic in question of a moral victory and this is like
02:24this is being treated as a moral victory for Jerry Jones and the front office's efforts with the goodwill
02:31they they bought I thought they bought themselves some goodwill here now they didn't necessarily buy
02:35themselves time or player or player but they bought themselves goodwill this is not like when the
02:41Rangers made that offer to Anthony Rendon it wasn't really an offer I mean they made him they
02:45they offered him money but we they knew that that wasn't going to be enough to get him somebody
02:49else was going to get him and overpay uh thankfully somebody overpaid uh they were like oh no he'll take
02:56a Texas discount that's what he'll take a Texas discount that was never going to happen so that was
03:00like a fake offer this they genuinely thought all right this we went to our max here this is what
03:05we're going to do uh this is a fair offer somebody overstepped you know somebody went and came in over
03:11the top and dunked on him and if I'm if I'm Jerry I'm looking at this all right I tried
03:16I tried
03:17Cowboy fans like all right they tried that's not going to matter on the field yeah right as of right
03:22now like the way things sit right now obviously free agency hasn't even started yet they still have
03:26the draft but they put forth an effort that they can go to the fan base and be like guys
03:32you know
03:32we we we tried to get this guy and that's the overwhelming response and reaction from Cowboy fans
03:37of like yes I like that it appears that we are serious but I'm glad that two first rounders were
03:43not giving up that's the overwhelming response yeah so I I mean now there's a handful of people
03:50on and by the way let's just for the record put it out there what we think was offered the
03:56Cowboys
03:57first at 12 not 20 next year second rounder and a player and many people rumoring and speculating
04:06that Osa Odigizua was the player so 12 next year second and Osa it's pretty strong that's a good
04:13that's a good deal no I mean that's they were I can only really be taught by two first rounders
04:18I
04:19don't and I don't think they necessarily I don't think it was a thing where it's like
04:22here's the deal on the table like here's our official bid on the house like I don't think it's
04:27it's necessarily like that but I think it is hey this is what we'd be willing to part with
04:32some other said hey this is what we'd be willing to part with somebody else coming said this is
04:36what we'd be willing to part with and I think the Ravens said we'll give you two first but you're
04:39not shopping the deal you take it now or it's off the table if you're gonna wait over the weekend
04:44and I think they went okay well we'll take that because the two first is what was important to
04:49them and there was there was an article from Jeremy Fowler where he had referenced that he had heard
04:55the deal was first second like we just talked about and a player just like we were discussing but he
05:01said that the Raiders had zero interest in acquiring players they didn't want it they
05:05wanted draft capital so whoever came in with the best draft capital was getting it had a Ravens fan
05:09call me celebrating and he's like our defense is worse than yours and blah blah blah and I was like
05:15shut up that's what I said although it wasn't on air so I said much more curse words look the
05:23Ravens
05:23pass rush did total 30 sacks they're fewest in 15 years last year also the first time since the
05:30Ravens inaugural season in 96 that they did not have an edge rusher with more than four and a
05:36half sacks is the is the Ravens fan trying to tell did y'all fire your coordinator like the day
05:43after the season happened it wasn't too far after was it Zach or did he even did he get fired
05:48uh yeah
05:48he did uh did the Ravens is a Ravens fan coming in saying I understand your pain about defense Cowboys
05:55fans is that similar to Peyton trying to tell us like I understand what y'all go through his parents
05:59because I have a dog like that it's just like no you don't even you don't understand yes it's it's
06:04not even on the same level Ravens okay five teams and this is going to be even more fun for
06:10the NFL
06:10draft coming up in Pittsburgh five teams now have two first round picks in 2026 the Raiders have one
06:18and 14 the Jets have two and 16 the Browns have six and 24 Kansas City after their DB deal
06:27nine and
06:2829 and of course the Cowboys at 12 and 20 and that makes things even more fun yeah and I
06:35mean there's
06:35still there's still a window here for people to flip some of those around or do different things we
06:40obviously haven't seen if AJ Brown's gonna move yet um I mean how how much there are potential other
06:47veterans out there we're not even talking about yet who maybe could be involved in something I mean
06:51AJ Brown a few years ago he was not known really truly to be on the move until draft weekend
06:57like
06:57people didn't have any clue that he was going to be available so that could still get a little bit
07:02tighter get a little more narrow um but Dallas being where they're at right now that's you you
07:06could tell that's why they didn't they didn't want to be one of those teams moving off of that
07:10they see the value in right now we we want a pick in this draft and how deep it is
07:15we don't want to
07:16sacrifice all that 877-881-1053 on how you felt about the offer are you glad it did not get
07:23done
07:24and they didn't throw in the extra first I've always been apprehensive and a little bit uneasy
07:29about 12 instead of 20 I understand it's Max Crosby so you know you got to give value to get
07:35value
07:35but I'm I'm glad that this did not happen for the two ones I am too uh two ones a
07:41lot especially when
07:42they already gave up a one for Quinnen like you know like you know when you had four first round
07:47picks and and you know you could use those you could use those to get ready now players you know
07:52or you can use those as like all right we we know we're we got to manage cap somewhere uh
07:58and you know
07:58that's generally cheap labor with a fifth year option I they very clearly to me I mean they still
08:03haven't flipped all the switches they need to at the defensive tackle spot they've got other things
08:08that they're gonna try to manage but given the switches they've already flipped given the
08:13acquiring Max Crosby that they were talking about which would have required them once he got here
08:19shifting money around including on his contract like this is we're putting stuff on credit we're
08:25buying our furniture on credit we're we're teeing up here and that's what Jerry said about I'm gonna
08:30have to borrow from my future that's and that's they are at a point now where I think it's like
08:34okay when you get to the end of this three years Dax contract is up anyway uh shoddy's I think
08:40is up
08:41in three years and you've got three years from now you're probably gonna have to make a CD or
08:45Pickens decision and so I think they're they're very clearly just at this point going all right come
08:51what may well if if it's bad in three years if it has not worked in three years we're just
08:56detonating
08:56this hey pay what are the tolos saying uh right now 214 says I'm fine that we stayed put 817
09:01I'm glad
09:02they didn't give up two first round picks 361 says why don't they pursue Miles Garrett
09:06so uh positivity there that the Cowboys stayed put because our highways couldn't take it I mean
09:12you can't get up on some of these roads you know this this morning you can't get up to those
09:15speeds
09:15no it was bad this morning I was I was worried for a second I got the Waze notification early
09:21heavy congested traffic and I was crawling for a little bit have you gotten into the routine every
09:27morning now like I'm checking the GPS before I walk out the door yeah because you didn't used to do
09:31that right you just go out the door yeah I have to that's it that's the uh coming from Lewisville
09:37have to do the same thing because 35 it gets nuts and look I ever since I went to the
09:41other building
09:41that one day I put it in so just to make sure now what's next Trey Wingo who last week
09:48blew up
09:49all the Cowboy websites and radio shows with his Max Crosby news said they're probably out of this
09:56and they're pivoting to Trey Hendrickson I thought the second most interesting tweet of the weekend
10:01came from our buddy James Palmer who comes on the show and he said this the Cowboys will pivot
10:08towards other pass rushers and free agency there are some I think that they like I'm not entirely
10:15sure Trey Hendrickson is one of those won't rule anything out but I get a sense their eyes are
10:22elsewhere and boom that was blinking lights to me when I saw our buddy James he's the only one that
10:27I've
10:27seen say don't up Nick Harris has kind of cooled things on the N'Kobe Dean front because if you
10:34asked me to write down the one player that's guaranteed to be on this roster over the past
10:38few weeks I would have said N'Kobe Dean so pay attention to how these insiders phrase things
10:42Nick pumping some breaks on Dean and James Palmer the only one do I that I saw do it on
10:49Hendrickson
10:50yeah and and the question then becomes okay but when it's said like that you have to start kind
10:57of separating things out a little bit and look at it and go okay well what could that mean could
11:00that
11:00mean James knows was had asked about Hendrickson was basically told yeah well we'll give it a shot
11:08but yeah we're kind of focused on some other things like is it like that and so and so he's
11:11he's relaying
11:12like that or has was he dropped a player in his ear and told a player that they'd be pivoting
11:17to
11:18and and he knows a specific of like that's why he thinks they're cooling on Trey Hendrickson
11:22I don't even think they're cooling necessarily I think they'll try I think they know more than
11:27even the money Trey Hendrickson wants to go back to Florida that's been the chatter since two weeks
11:32ago in Indy was was that he wants to go back home to Florida that's where he's from he'd like
11:36to end
11:37up with a Florida team so like everybody has been kind of chirping about Tampa would make sense for him
11:43but Tampa Jacksonville Miami I think somebody over in Florida that's where he would like to be you
11:48know the other problem with Hendrickson is he's been viewed as a guy who's gotten screwed over and
11:53over and over again in Cincinnati shocker he had probably to pay for his latest potato chips out of
11:58the vending machine like others so this is not a case an instance of all right he's made all his
12:04money
12:04he's been maxed out now go win a championship for less I view it as all right Trey is kind
12:10of searching
12:10for that humongous payday that he's been deserving of that he didn't get from since he yeah and I
12:17think he also though looks at it like the league has told him you're not getting up to the point
12:23you
12:23want like I think in general even if Cincinnati Cincinnati was trying to go probably knowing the
12:28way that organization operates it's probably trying to go cheaper than anybody else would anyway but I
12:34think the the problem is that he wants to be all right I think I'm up on these watts here
12:38I think I'm on
12:38this watt here I think I'm on this Crosby or Garrett or Bosa like I should be up there and
12:44I think the
12:44league says no no no no see that's that's the top you're this like 1a or tier you're you're off
12:50to
12:50the side a little bit you're not quite there and I think that he's just realized all right if that
12:54money's not going to be there if I'm not leaving that on the table somewhere and the league's all
12:57telling me they think I fall into roughly the same category let's go somewhere a little bit more
13:01he missed his he missed his window with age he's only made 95 million dollars it's been nine years
13:11he missed his window with with honestly just not developing this quickly yeah he developed after
13:17his first contract and so because that or after his first like free agent contract and because of
13:22that it kind of slowed him down you're not gonna pay a 31 year old 40 million I mean because
13:27it's sad
13:27because you know there are guys that are you know putting up fewer sacks than him they're gonna make
13:31basically his career earnings in two and a half years although the the the Texans just paid Daniel
13:37Hunter who is a 31 year old they just paid him 40 million yeah well out of one year yeah
13:41so his but
13:42I'm talking like in a chance of get a long-term deal at 40 it's just not gonna happen
