00:00 At some point the Cowboys will be active in free agency, Tier 3 free agency or something.
00:06 There are still running back bodies out there, but spending $12 million on say, Quan Barkley,
00:11 which by the way, is way out of character for the Eagles, and yet the Eagles are so good,
00:18 the roster's really good, right?
00:20 Correct.
00:21 It's as good as anybody in the NFC.
00:23 It's still 49ers pending what happens in free agency.
00:26 49ers, Eagles, Cowboys, Lions. That's still the big four in the NFC.
00:31 That's good news for the Cowboys, but the Eagles just landed the guy that I think,
00:36 alongside of McCaffrey, is the best running back in football.
00:39 Put him on a good team.
00:40 With a good offensive line.
00:42 With a good offensive line.
00:43 The Giants, I still don't understand it, watching the Giants last year,
00:46 he wasn't their third down back.
00:48 They put some other schlemiel in on third down.
00:51 Instead of say, Quan Barkley?
00:52 Yeah.
00:53 It's insane.
00:54 I don't think the Eagles will make that mistake.
00:56 So for the Eagles to go spend $12 million, and by the way,
00:59 say Quan's from Philadelphia and played at Penn State,
01:01 it just makes all the sense in the world.
01:03 That's a blockbuster move for them.
01:05 That is a calculated home run swing.
01:08 Cowboys don't need to do that.
01:09 But yeah, running back?
01:10 Somebody's got to play running back here.
01:12 They need to do something.
01:13 So are you saying the Eagles are the most improved in the NFC's division?
01:17 You take the--first of all, again, their existing roster,
01:21 they'll lose some bodies from it.
01:24 Bryce Huff, good young pass rusher from the Jets,
01:27 and say Quan Barkley, arguably the best running back in football,
01:32 that's two home runs waiting to happen.
01:35 And yes, the Eagles deserve--and Howie Roseman, the general manager--
01:39 they deserve all kinds of credit, especially because, again,
01:42 the Eagles don't usually do that at running back.
01:44 Our guys in Philadelphia were predicting there's no way that they're going to
01:48 make $12 million because it's so out of character for them.
01:51 But you start to look at the player separate from your philosophy.
01:55 Say Quan Barkley is that special, and yes, the Eagles have a chance to be that special too.
