01:32yeah i'm sorry about that jeez it's tough tough to see tough to see um yeah so i i was
01:41just you know
01:43botch and i were kind of talking about it this morning stuff like that and we were kind of kicking
01:47around like i told you guys yeah it was a good tease i was just i was kind of like
01:51to me i reached
01:53out to my gang of seven guys because well i'm curious about george pickens and i'm trying
01:59my best to see where i would put george pickens when it comes to the salary you know and i
02:07you can say
02:08what you want about like brandon iuke that whole thing in san francisco that was an absolute disaster
02:16pretty weird very weird for them that's a 30 million dollar a year player right there
02:21okay so i'm starting to think about brandon iuke i'm on ron state brown aj brown that's 32 million
02:29now we're starting to get into the garrett wilson's that's 32 5 dk madcalf is 32 999
02:37i think that's where you're looking at okay well i reached out to my gang of seven
02:44and because i i never ever believed that george pickens was going to get
02:49jamar chase money i never believed that i never and i wasn't i was kind of thinking could he get
02:56could he get justin jefferson money at 35 and i was thinking nah then cd lamb at 34 i was
03:04like i don't
03:05see dallas going over 34 right for this guy but i i was just so i was trying to think
03:12of where i would
03:12put him and i kind of came up with the and i asked my guys how would you how would
03:20you rank him as far
03:22as guys that you would pay guys that you would would pay i and i wanted i just was curious
03:29and i said
03:30if you had to take dk medcalf wilson and pickens uh-huh kind of rank those guys of who you
03:40would pay
03:41or who you would who you would uh who would be your guy that you would you would want to
03:48have as you
03:49know rank those and i i talked to and i and i made sure i talked to a couple of
03:54teams that had
03:57needs at at wide receiver because i was curious about really what they were you know what what
04:03do they think about this guy and i and so i asked i said i could say i said who
04:08would you rather have
04:09at wide receiver pickens madcalf wilson one of my guys said i'd rather have wilson okay and i said
04:18okay sir i said factoring in the character pickens is last madcalf is the worst of the three
04:27yeah obviously all three though are good players though yeah i mean i think i'd probably go wilson
04:34pickens madcalf just in terms of player okay my other guy my other guy another needy team wide
04:41receiver needy team i said hey who would you rather have at at wide receiver pickens madcalf wilson
04:51my guy here said i'd want pickens okay is who he said he said i said well then okay rank
04:59them again
04:59rank them for me he says pickens wilson madcalf is how he would say all right a couple things
05:10is that fair to put him in that group with those guys or does he need to be above does
05:16he need to
05:16be above cd and he need to be in that room with jefferson and uh i would say with dk
05:22madcalf lamb
05:23and jefferson would he be in that well i've already asked you about dk madcalf but does he need to
05:28be
05:28with the lamb jefferson group you know i i think what you've done putting him in the group with wilson
05:34and metcalf is probably fair uh considering both of those guys have had seasons where it looked like
05:41they were all league but they've also had seasons where they've been pretty disappointing so if
05:46pickens is still in that group even though the most recent season showed he he might belong in the
05:51jefferson lamb group um i'm fine with with putting him kind of in no man's land in between those two
05:58we're back with the garrett wilson group for now um and hopefully the cowboys get a a multi-year deal
06:04done this offseason because i think after he goes out there and does it again maybe even better
06:09he is he is going to be in that top five conversation more definitively unless you're
06:14going to tell me something from your gang of seven like there's things we don't know about
06:18see that's where i was going to ask you the next question do you feel like that gang of seven
06:24doesn't have a real good understanding of pickens and what was going on with the cowboys i mean they
06:32might know yeah late for meetings maybe you know a little tardy here and there but it doesn't sound
06:39like the guy was a bad guy and i wonder if teams are thinking still a bad guy i mean
06:47i say bad guy of
06:48not you know being professional not professional you know i wonder if people out there are not even
06:55there what he did in dallas doesn't even matter that's how it feels that's how it feels and dawson
07:02said it earlier this could play well to the cowboys this could play well to dallas if everybody out
07:09there feels like that george regardless if george pickens goes out there and has another great year
07:14maybe people just aren't gonna maybe they're just don't want the headache of george pickens i say
07:20headache i mean maybe they're thinking he's a headache yeah but in reality he he's probably
07:27turned the corner in some ways right yeah i would say it's fair to to say the cowboys still thought
07:33he
07:33was a headache for at least one weekend this year uh in vegas with the suspension that was handed down
07:38so i can't be sure you know like there there are things that are believed about some players that
07:44aren't true and then there are things that never get reported that could be true right you know
07:48turns out dac's chasing it right he's an old hound i didn't know that about dac yeah you know guy
07:55um
07:56you know you know so there's a lot of players that can have things going on that you're unaware of
08:02and
08:02i so i just wanted to say that as a way of saying maybe the league is out on george
08:07pickens because
08:08they have a level of information that we don't yeah it could very well be true absolutely could be
08:13uh i mean the market obviously wasn't there for him last year the cowboys got him for a third round
08:18pick and it didn't sound like the market was really there for him this year for to be able to
08:22trade him
08:22i mean i wouldn't have traded him for anything less than a one and doesn't sound like that option i
08:27had a gang of seven guy tell me if you're trading him for less than a one you shouldn't trade
08:32him yeah
08:33yeah most most underpaid star receiver is what you might be in store for here
08:38yeah maybe maybe that's just a 10 15 discount but on a team that is so careful with how they
08:46allocate that salary cap space maybe they can end up doing something with it do you think the cowboys
08:50maybe i've already asked this question you think the cowboys are playing this in a way that they know
08:58on their end that nobody would want him and they're just letting him
09:01be told no a lot and david mula get is getting the door shut in his face yeah i definitely
09:07think
09:07there's value there and they're and they're playing it in a way like yeah we don't want to talk to
09:11you
09:12but you go out there and hear no a bunch and then you can hear yes from us but yes
09:18is going to be at
09:2128 million dollars or 29 million dollars yeah you've heard our offer and we're feeling pretty
09:27strongly that this should get it done and they gave him permission to go negotiate with other
09:32teams they did we haven't heard a single thing about it so i think there are a lot of times
09:38players believe that if i'm available teams are going to be beaten down our door to come get me
09:43right so you offer them that opportunity to go see for themselves and you come back and you say you
09:48know what this is actually the better situation so you think that happened to omari cooper he got a
09:54little bit better deal when he went to the commanders right they tried they offered him
09:57more yeah and he just said no i'm not interested in that yep i just wonder if this whole thing
10:02with
10:02george pickens is it turned into like that that that dallas knows that he's going to hear no and
10:09but i i i think if you're if if if this is going to get done it's probably going to
10:15have to fall into
10:16maybe where like where he is currently right now like at 27 28 million dollars
10:24i don't think he's i don't think he's going to get much more than that unless line me up for
10:29eight
10:29years of that oh absolutely that'd be that'd be awesome i mean if alec pierce is getting 28 and a
10:34half and that's one receiver too then i mean picking should get at least that but if his market's not
10:39going to be 30 million yeah that's that's a deal for the type of player you're getting yeah i wonder
10:45if hey one more season of production like you just had then you know this time next year maybe teams
10:51are a little bit more willing to yeah to fork it over like i said these were two teams that
10:57are
10:57desperate for receivers and they're not they're not one of them isn't budging at all would not
11:03budge at all on that one yeah so interesting brian thank you thank you
11:07thank you
