what you're talking there it's Landry it's a Landry Hat and here we go top 10 takes on the evening uh get in get on be good bring something of intellect to the table would you please see this that looks good I don't know what you're squawking about item one so the Hall of Fame has changed the rule a coach only has to be out of the game for a year now not five years like the players a year before he gets to go into the Hall of Fame uh we wrote about this today at Cowboys country and I had a good wrestling match with one of my writers and and his point was belich to the Hall of Fame he will have been out for a year next February he's going into the Hall of Fame first ballot and that maybe he would just put that in his pocket and uh uh go with his uh almost teenage girlfriend and right off into the sunset all right she's not almost yet how old is she sugar 24 I don't know his cheerleader girlfriend his college student cheerleader girlfriend that he met and I have another angle on it on Bill Bill bich in the Hall of Fame that will make Jerry Jones want him more Jerry J football Jerry sure sometimes it seems like the Dallas Cowboys are a marketing company that plays football on the side Jerry yeah more item two the sad story of Randy Gregory and uh we went in deep this morning on it and I appreciate you hanging out with this there go if you haven't seen it I I hope I can help you understand where where he's at and where's Ben he go he signs his $3 million contract uh he gets I gotta make sure I get my numbers right he gets The Upfront bonus the guaranteed money of 1.8 million or something like that then he goes awall by the way uh Gary points out Tom Landry leaves the Cowboys his final year is 1988 right his final season but he uh he did go into the Hall of Fame in 1990 you make a great Point uh but I'm reading straight from the Pro Football Hall of Fame release that they've changed the rule I I don't know maybe Tom Landry was a twoyear weight no not really uh maybe they made it I you you bring up a great point now I got to go I was going to at 6:21 tonight I was going to go have dinner now I can't now I have to work some more thank you for uh giving me a kick in the face there kick in the GTS I'll double check that so Randy Gregory gets $3 million contract gets whatever 1.5 million of up front then he decides not to show up all the time he missed including the entirety of their training camp of course and two preseason games he gets fined the total of his fine by my calculations is $1.85 3 million Randy Gregory signs with the Buccaneers they give him 1.5 he owes him 1.8 he's in AAR and and this is why I'm saying about we should get Randy Gregory as a player Randy Gregory is not a football player he needs to work of being a person by not calling the Buccaneers a month ago and saying I I'm not in gu I I don't want to do it I can't do it he just cost himself that the the 1.5 he would of course never had just cost himself 385 Yeah $385,000 by not making a phone call and I think it's sad and I hope he's okay but no you're not you're not going to call him and put him on your football team you're not he's kind of apparently telling people or his agent is telling people he's retired and I don't mean this to be mean Randy Gregory isn't retiring himself 32 teams are retiring and by the way yes Stephen White you're right so are so are the toxic fans of Dallas the toxic fan of of Dallas and 32 NFL teams are the ones retiring Randy Gregory item let's get to the roster I'm gonna go bang bang bang on this ready uh Dean Graham Uncle fish premium to the UFL Randy Gregory goes maybe they'd love to have him I don't think he likes football enough Taco Charlton likes football enough he's still trying I don't know about Randy Malik is a keeper I think there's nothing special that he needs to do tomorrow to make the team I think I think they dig Malik we know that Hunter lipy is staying pretty much no he's a fullback so how many running backs do they keep and what about Deuce okay Deuce will play on Saturday night and needs to needs to do something special I think Christopher jay fish I need to join apologies Family Health Emergency that's okay thank you for your work uh we uh we're all here uh locked arm and arm when people have their family issues so uh we're here for you we would love to have you be uncle fish premium of course Max I think Malik might get cut I think you're wrong as I just said I think they think Malik's a keeper so who's Duce in competition with item four I don't think Duce in a way no matter what he does and of course we've mentioned and Big Mike has mentioned him on special teams as the other kick returner Deuce there there's certainly a possibility that he doesn't make the team who's he in competition with I think he's kind of in competition with Ryan floi the rookie wide receiver how many running backs am I going to keep how many wide receivers am i g to keep re boys Uncle fish I'm friends with a guy who's friends with Randy uh Dallas's babysitter ry's babysitter sat with him for five hours very nice guy I'm listen I've sat with rander Gregory for more than five hours I'm I'm not questioning his niess that's not the issue my my issue and I'm not going to dwell on this I think we made the presentation this morning and I made it as chisp and smart and fair as I could Randy Gregory doesn't need to find a team Randy Gregory needs to find him himself how many wide receivers am I keeping I keeping six item five we do the math I on seven wide receivers I got five running backs that should make it I got five good tight ends you might have six good tight ends obviously that doesn't add up so six receivers four tight ends four running backs it gets tight why do I need all them running backs uh Justin says why do we keep Malik what does he have that we don't have already I think I think he's got Splash play that nobody else in the roster has has unless you count Deuce who if he gets in the open field can could but he doesn't do it with raw speed not really not you know you you wish that a five- foot guy was a world class Sprinter he's not that he is clearly a stronger Runner than he was a years ago a year ago I'll give him that if you count Splash play as an important factor I I think I'm I think I'm playing Malik Davis and I think they think that too more importantly than whatever demo me thinks so I'm I gotta keep all the item five I gotta keep all these wide receivers I gotta call all these running backs all these tight ends why do I need all these tight ends well let's go through them Jake obviously Jake Ferguson by the way and listen there there's a level of tight end up here that's different uh statistically but more Kelsey is different uh if you're a fantasy guy you know there's a list now the list is growing Here Comes T.J hackinson and here comes Sam leapa and here come and and KD now is there the list is growing Jake has a crack at being somewhere in that second group so Jake scoon Steve from Texas Uncle fish who can we risk throwing through waivers I'll get there I think they really like John Stevens Jr and I must say when you go stand next to him H you you impressive impressive human being uh Greg Snell Uncle fish premium Uncle fish maybe we should pray for Randy instead of less gossip uh first of all I I would uh I I would slap back at you on Gossip I I don't think that's what we're doing I I'm I'm telling you fact-based opinions on what I know about Randy Gregory somebody that I've talked to a million times since 2015 although not lately but the but the think about Randy Gregory the person uh don't doubt me on that don't don't doubt my thoughts on that Jake scoon and then two more I think Ren span for 67270 Fant and Henderson uh the legend of pton henders shot no shot I will say this about the tight ends and we've had this conversation with bones fossil and I'm quite sure I I know what the building thinks of londell as the tight ends coach he his opinion is respected those two guys bones and lond wells will push for more of these bodies obviously the tight end will push for tight ends that's normal the special teams coach is going to push for tight ends the special team coach wants all these 6 foot5 240 pound guys that he can gather especially with the new kickoff rules item six so awesome is in as IIM awesome in the offensive line chuma is hurt that gives him a little Elbow Room give somebody a little Elbow Room do I need a wetco or a ball and what have they done again it's offensive line play and we'll watch Saturday but you know after spending a couple weeks in Oxnard I don't remember I'm there every day I don't remember going I'll tell you what that W let go on that ball they look terrific Gregory Uncle fish premium fish can you explain to us while Josh ball is still even on the C and you're we're saying the same thing he's about this far away from making the 5 three man roster spal Mr Matt uh Uncle fish premium serious business here is the Brain Trust looking at real interior linebackers like Shaun Lee and Leighton VR Etc one moment please and we'll get to linebackers I'm glad you brought it up wetco or ball making the team to me is a come from nowhere I just can't imagine that they're sitting in those meeting rooms going man oh man we got to have him by the way um it's one of those areas that that many people say the Cowboys have they got an excess body we how about a trade okay I'll get to that too in a minute item seven the cut and bring back guys there's no question uh the Long Snapper sigs going to get cut cut and brought back everybody's got to see in fact remember McQuade when Jake McQuade he's now available last time I checked he was doing free agent Tri outs last time I checked he's the 33rd best Long Snapper in football and is great at it so see gets cut CJ Goodwin they cut him every year then he comes back every year I assume we're going that direction again Danny Reed Uncle fish you are the best Danny Reid you are one of my 72,000 best friends so I'm cutting the center at the Long Snapper I'm cutting the Special Teams Ace that doesn't have a position am I cutting Cooper Rush I've got three quarterbacks all three of them out of contract after this year so so this idea that we got to keep Tre Lance he's a future he's not a future not here he's not not right now and Dak right now isn't a future and Rush right now isn't a future the reason that I keep bringing up releasing Cooper Rush is because I've seen this movie before they've released him 111 times and only once has anybody ever picked him up he clears waivers every time and um so many of us we have our microscopes on the Cowboys so we don't maybe have a realization this every team thinks they have a Cooper Rush every every team almost every team thinks they have a Cooper Rush some teams they think they have more than better but um there there is a second level of guy in this league a second string guy in this league who's a Garder menu who's a maau brother they still around Matt Barkley those guys there's 32 of those guys that's why Cooper rush I would say you could cut and not get claimed I'll add this though Dean Graham Cooper Rush has done nothing wrong has nothing to do with it Trent SE the long Snappers nothing wrong either he's done nothing wrong why we cutting him it's strategic Dean I'm over here playing chess quit playing checkers against me I'm kicking your ass the guys I cut a handful of the guys that I most of the guys I cut aren't ready for the varsity many of them will come back to the practice squad and here's a handful of them that'll come back and play in the game you are going to cut three guys at least on cutdown day who will then five days later play in that game in Cleveland so don't get don't get your uh panties in a wad here the cut and bring back SE and CJ and rush if you cut Trey Lance and somebody picks him up they're picking up his $5.3 million guaranteed contract to Stacy who do you trust rush or Lance who do Stacey which trust is what to put in a game in Cleveland OH it's Cooper Rush it's not even close but we're talking about we're not talking about the we're talking about cutdown date who do I trust to not get picked up Cooper Rush cam cut scoon if you were running this business cam you wouldn't cut scoon because you don't cut 23y old second round picks with guaranteed money who are also affordable you just don't do it um and it's not just Dallas Nobody Does that I give you Kelvin Joseph who was in the car and involved in a murder investigation and they didn't cut him okay right by the way he got traded to Miami and he played there and now he's in Kansas City right he's playing there he's not in prison he's in the NFL hopefully he didn't do anything that deserved him to be in prison item eight let's make a trade do they have excess offensive lineman less so now with chuma hurt do they have excess safeties let's trade a safety but for what isn't the only place on the on the roster where you're going man I wish we had blank realistically don't you wish you had a full-time running back a first string non-committee run between the tackles also Splash play stay on the field for pass Pro don't you wish you had that Christopher Johnson welcome to the uncle Fish Club thank you Christopher so we and and I'm not saying I I think a zillion trades will happen here in the next starting Monday um but most of the time we're going to be trading our 47th best guy for their 47th best guy most of the time Denny Reid we going to trade for a wide receiver in case Lamb's not here for week one one no two he will be so trade us safety for a running back so my I'm gonna trade my my fifth safety and somebody's goingon to give me their best running back that's not happening and we've gone through the my sanders thing if I'm Carolina I'm not cutting him if I if I I mean I'm I'm eating money if I cut him and if I'm the Cowboys and he's a $7 million cap impact I'm not trading for him so neither team that doesn't match up with either team BD gray wants to sign Randy Gregory and Tra and trade him for a star running back there you go JT Dak should have done it like lamb and said Pay me or I'm not showing up I think uh if you're a Cowboy fan I don't know why you would say that JT if you're a Cowboy fan that would be that would be a disaster why would you root for that if you're a Cowboy fan I don't get it item nine let's get to the linebackers and a couple of you said what about a real linebacker I talking about dick butus Eric Kendrick Eric Kendricks is a real linebacker he's a real middle linebacker he gets a million tackles a year he's gonna he will lead the Cowboys and tackles so you're good there spiral uh Deone Clark friend of the show banged up right now overshown a little banged up I don't think either one of those guys necessarily needs to play tomorrow and banged up what if Mars leua is a real linebacker the kind you're talking about he's got size he's got smarts he can run he's aggressive he's sound let's watch him tomorrow let's watch marus Leu uh they are very pleased with what they got there in that draft he has been really good at Camp uh he has shown versatility at camp and he's grown to the point where I remind you when he on draft day what he told us I just want to make this team I just want to make the team and maybe help on special teams he's beyond that now he's already beyond that and I I'm I'm a big fan of Deone Clark as a person and I think we all think think overon has a chance to be something special but fellas you screw around too much and Mars leou might get some real life snaps in week one at Cleveland and I'm serious uh couple of you say trade Demarcus we uh Demarcus Lawrence Demarcus Lawrence 31 years old on the final year of a contract that pays him $20 million what am I getting for him who's what team's doing that there's only one circumstance where that happens you get to the trade deadline the Cowboys are out of it and some other team needs a defensive end now I'll Salvage something from tank but I'm not not doing it today I'm doing it trade deadline if the Cowboys stink at at which point I'm selling off used parts but not today I 10 uh gon knee soreness Kenneth Easley $5 pitch in to the Super Chat I sent a Super Chat earlier here's a beer for later all right uh I appreciate that Kenneth Easley so offensive line knee soreness on your potential new star left tackle thank you spy mind for pitching in $10 where are my George H championship trophies I know I know uh I'm I'll try to get you after the show in the chat if I can Kenneth Easley and see if I can catch up with you there I don't need to see I mean I wish I wish he was fully healthy and could I don't need to see more of Tyler gon he needs more work he needs all the all the work he can get to get ready for Miles Garrett and The Gauntlet that is to come but I don't need to see him do you to know that the Cowboys have done it again the Cowboys have done it again I do need to see BB uh BD gray will Kendricks be the Green Dot that would make sense yes if you remember a month ago BB was kind of third string now it was some of it was ceremony he's first string he would have to have some snaps go over the quarterback's head tomorrow afternoon to me to not win the job so gon take care of your knee we'll see you in Cleveland as far as I'm concerned BB go get it BB is a better blocker than Hoffman Hoffman is a better Snapper of the football BB go go in the backyard with your mom again keep getting it right good snaps help from Mama and you might have yourself there will be growing pains you might have yourself two young potential studs starting in the offensive line I did the other day I did the list off the top of my head how the Cowboys hit on offensive lineman and again not always but we know about all the first rounders right we can we can all recite them Tyron Travis Frederick lyel Collins in a way Zack Martin Tyler gon hopefully and Tyler Smith we should probably stick in there too you know Conor McGovern Conor how do I how do I used to say it Conor McGovern from Ireland from Scotland wherever he's from he starts in the NFL in Buffalo I believe Conor Williams started in Miami bades started here I mean this team Nails it when it comes to drafting offensive lineman pretty much better than by far better than anybody else in football and and I think it'd be fun for BB to show tomorrow it's my job it's my job for the next four years for sure and wouldn't it be great it's my job for the next 12 so there's your 10 things that are going on uh by the way as you notice they're not hot takes it's not gossip it's fact-based opinions Straight Dope no bullsh fish out
