[Music] into today's mailbag a super thanks to kick things off here from Bloods Slinger who just said thanks it was in reference to the uh linval Joseph signing appreciate that Bloods Slinger as a reminder you know you can Super Chat on live shows super thanks is the on demand version of it you can edit your message send in whatever you want to send in if you send one in as long as it's not doing an ism but even if it says Tom you suck we'll show it another the show because we appreciate your support even if it is just you paying your rent because you're a hater looking at you Eagles fans hit those super thanks and we'll give you some shout outs on the show from Tyler C Madden says Trey Lance and Brandon Cooks in exchange for Jordan Addison thoughts it's a fun idea you're you the Cowboys win that trade they trade Trey Lance who they set a fourth round pick for and Brandon Cooks who they sent what amounts to a fifth round pick four for a former first round pick in Jordan nison was very good in his first year I would do it I there's no way the Vikings do it now Addison's got his off field stuff he's got to get figured out because you know it's a really bad look and a really bad action overall and I guess I'll throw the allegedly on here after your teammate dies in in a in a drunk driving accident for then you to go out and do drunk driving yourself like that's justup stupid I don't even know if you if you want that guy off field stuff cuz I think there's and then and then also by the way post a Instagram or story of you having mimosas like two two days later read the room buddy come on not a good look at all talented football player makes your team better I doubt the Vikings didn't even consider it because they're not trance do by the way trance does not help Minnesota we we we know that right Sam darnold's going to start JJ McCarthy is their future trading for an older worst receiver and a number two QB for their first round pick a receiver that make any sense F Lam Tom could the cowboy strategy for cdb one don't pay him this year make him plan as last year two franchise tag him next year for 2025 then again in 2026 or release if production goes way down sign him for a three-year deal if the production is good so as as I told eam if that is the Cowboys they are stupid because it doesn't make any sense if if you are already offering lamb just under $33 million per year why why would you be trying to haggle and hope that you save money because he plays worse because that's actually what you're doing and the biggest issue I have with this here is you have salary cap issues if you don't pay anybody because you're eating the the big dead cap pit with with Dak Prescott you're paying lamb $18 million on the salary cap in 2024 $25 million almost in 2025 and 27 $30 million in 2026 with zero flexibility in how you manage your salary cap because you can't restructure that money if if you are paying a vastly more expensive premium in actual cash you will pay out if if you pay him 3 years later because who here thinks lamb isn't going to be a superstar player and if you don't think that you shouldn't be offering what you're offering him anyway and then you can't structure it and backload that money and push it off in the future you actually limit your your ability to do other things if you franchise tag them you can pay him right now and pay him drastically less the next three years than a franchise tag option just just a bad idea so do you want to extend CD lamp type y for yes n for no I think I think it's a yes right sound off why for yes n for no the pin elment of today's show Zeno saying $2 super chat over under Zeke 850 yards and 10 TDS I take the over I you can talk me into the touch think it's so much work in in the red zone and short yardage I I you can I can get on board with the touchdowns part how many yards per carry do we think zek's going to average this upcoming season seriously how many because if if if if it's back at that three 3.8 you know 3.9 even if it's just four yards per carry you have to give him 200 carries to get there 200 plus pretty comfortably actually I think that would I don't like that idea I'm taking the under on yards pretty pretty easily for massive Matt $10 Super Chat I will crash out if lamb isn't signed not often you get someone that good at his age being a fan of this team is so tired can't wait for them to do this to Micah too you do know what they're going to do to Micah right it's the exact same thing and they're going to take that leadership quotes he's made and put it right back in his face which isn't exactly Fair he also walked right into it he has set himself up for this because they're not going to offer fair market they never do when was last time the Cowboys quickly and urgently offer top- ofth Market money that's not how they operate if if you want to take less they'll they'll they'll do it with you Mike already KN says the Market's going to be at about $40 million per year he's probably right so what are you gonna do then just stepen want to pay that I they're gonna do it to to Micah next year but with lamb there's just no excuse all pro player Young Player Premium position you need that type of offensive playmaker whether you have Dak Prescott or you're rebuilding with a new new QB doesn't make any sense outside of the Cowboys are being dumb again now you should not be dumb and you should start playing prize picks prize picks is America's number one daily fantasy sports at over 5 million active members a lot of

know if he tweeted it or said it on the show but uh I I he's it's coming from a place of hurt because Ryan floro smoked Jack Jones that's that that's why he's feeling bad about it Ian Burns in a few years if Deuce is gone and never worked out anywhere he's got to be a Cowboys Legend Hall of Famer yes eventually Ezekiel Elliots will be in the Cowboys Ring of Honor like the actual Ring of Honor and when that happens I will I will induct du Fawn into the Cowboys Legend Ring of Honor because you're right you're absolutely right if he doesn't actually materialize in anything good Bush Gardens fan says bring back r don't want to he might retire by the way like I don't I I I don't want to add him like I just I don't think that's a good path because we've been down that road and the bridges have been burnt I I don't think it you don't even need an edge bite right now by the way retro Glee we need shadur Sanders so in general this can go for shadur Sanders go for Carson Beck go for Quin yours insert any QB here if you think that guy is going to be your next top call top 10 top five franchise caliber QB and he plays like that to help make you justify that as your opinion there there's that guy's going to go top 10 right so how are you probably picking in the top 25 picking the mid to late 20s how are you going to get that top five pick and if and if they are available for you did they play well enough to make you think they're the they're the the franchise guy that this exact scenario is why I wanted the Cowboys to make up their mind they should know by now if Dak Prescott is their quarterback for 2025 and if he is they should have paid him and if he's not they should be playing Tre Lance all year see if he's good and if he's not then you're picking top five probably or picking top 10 and you can take that premium QB draft pick what I don't want to have happen is you play just like the way we think they're going to to they're going to win 10 games they'll win maybe one playoff I don't who they draw and they'll get bounced before the conference Championship game head coach out of a contract quarterback out of a contract picking in the 24s having no idea who the hell their quarterback's going to be and how they're going to get one you can't trade Dak Prescott he's a free agent and as and as a no no tack Clause too you've made your bed and you're in danger of lying in it in a really bad spot from Timothy champagne is that Timothy Shan's cousin or something or is it like a I don't know uh will there be a surprise extension before the season Osa if there is one that would be a very good name but I doubt it they don't want to spend money they honestly even if they wanted to pay Oso to isua I don't think you could having not paid CD lamb right now I I I think that the The Narrative angle is probably too much of a negative one there so I don't know if anyone gets paid it should be at least one with seed Lam I'm going to lose my mind but before the season starts week one how many players will Dallas end up extending let me know in the comments of today's show Ecuador man it was on a live stream said two cups in floro all right it's fine whatever look the Raiders are going to be bad this year I I I I I will let Mitch cope however he needs to Clayton Barry purchased the Cowboys for $149 million and turned into a team worth 10 plus billion so what incentive does he have to change his ways of doing things we're stuck with JJ yeah you are not wrong like they they have a they have wins and they also win games they're relevant they get attention every year they're not win at all costs because they like the costs that they get from Jenkins gaming trade Mazy for Devon aain your thoughts I mean I do it but the Dolphins aren't doing it Von H was awesome last year for Miami they love the speed in the back field now they need defensive tackle help too but they're not going to you're I I don't think the Dolphins say yes I don't I don't I don't think that they would do that Walter Smith what is your nightmare scenario this year we know that good is actual playoff success I think like looking ahead 2012 I kind of mentioned it when I went on my rants about not having a QB picking 24 I think like in season night M scenario is remember how the last time the NFL team had the head coach and the quarterback not under contract and they started the year hot and then they all kind of fell apart and it turned from we into me that is my concern in season that if the Cowboys hit some adversity in in October November whenever and you have set up a organizational structure where nobody's under contract none of the coaching staff is really of notes the highly paid players like the the players who you could not feasibly move on from in a release are basically fifth year option for Micah Parsons who you could trade obviously pretty comfortably uh Tyler gon Marsha nean Mazy Smith and like that's it those are the only guys you couldn't actually cut and what could happen the downside is it goes from it's all about us it's about the team it's about and it turns into it's about me I got to look out for number one cuz I don't know what's going to happen here I got to do the I got to take care of myself first because I got no security from my employer and that's how it goes from it's about we it's about me real quick it's very natural for a human to do that that's downside you're facing and you set up this prove it year for everybody on the roster basically and the coaching staff too I want you guys to predict the Cowboys record then for me in 2024 drop that record prediction in the comments of today's show from Carter how do you feel the upcoming uh halfback draft big fan of Ole Gordon yeah Ole Gordon got to figure out that DUI thing there um but I think you've got they got a good class two House State kids quinan J Kids trayon Henderson Ashton Jey at Boise States super nice too uh Omarian hon North Carolina there's a lot of good players uh in that backfield class so you will be able to find one if you want to round one round two round three next year pretty easily Matthew wbr uh how do you feel about trading Brock Hoffman for a quality running back or DT assuming bass could play center I think he could I think BB starts in that scenario I would wonder if around the league he'd have a better chance of finding interest in TJ bass as opposed to Brock Hoffman Hoffman's been more of a journeyman uh he he wasn't you know as quick as a f by Dallas as the basses udfa in that same year um I get a bit H train away offensive linman because it's tough to find guys that are competent and you might want those guys next year if Zack Martin decides to call a career and hang up and retire I I would almost be more comfortable trading away one of my day three draft picks like I got all these fifths and sixths let me offer you one of those and I'll keep Bast and Hoffman instead especially for a back all right don't miss any Cowboys report YouTube video folks folks hit that sub button if you haven't already it's youtube.com/ boystv retro GLE if we had Romo at QB the year we had Amari cidd and Zeke we'd have a ring but would you because I actually don't think you do because this is I'll go on a bit of a rant here the Cowboys and Romo and Dak era Cowboys like they're the same team by the way we do know that right like the same negatives we're saying about Dak Prescott were often used against Tony Romo I remember I saw it I saw Romo have an even better team in that Minnesota Vikings blowout playoff loss wasn't all the QB's fault either by the way Joseph Thomas last one hey Tom and everyone in studio how you guys doing hope everything is all is uh well for you guys and go Cowboys thanks you Joseph it's it's very kind of you appreciate that [Music]
