Quarterbacks should take less on-field money to play for the Cowboys because the off-field marketing revenue is massive.

If you play for the Dallas Cowboys, whatever you don't make on the field, you can make up off the field on the mattress company that Dak [Prescott] is promoting. I think it's worth it to take a little less money on the field, have better players on the field, and open up even more doors if you win a Super Bowl off the field to making money marketing-wise in Dallas.

Bryce Young has the lowest ceiling among the top 2023 QB prospects because he is a 'finished product' coming out of Alabama.

I think at the end of the day, if you're Carolina, you want a guy that's gonna play week one. And the guy that's most ready to play in week one is Bryce. But he is also got the lowest ceiling because he's been coached by the best of the best at Alabama... you're getting a finished product. He doesn't need to be coached a ton. He doesn't need to be taught a ton... there's not a ton of upside like there was with Josh Allen five years ago.

If a quarterback has not learned how to fall correctly by the time they reach the NFL, they will continue to get injured.

If you're trying to figure out how to fall correctly at 24 in year three in the NFL, that's a problem. You learn how to absorb hits in junior high and high school. If you are trying to figure it out and trying to perfect that part of the game in year 2, 3, 4 in the NFL, you're probably gonna be getting hurt a lot.

Troy Polamalu and Ed Reed are the two most fearsome defenders in NFL history.

It's not one guy. It's two guys. It's Troy [Polamalu] and Ed Reed. They both played the same position, but you had to prepare for them totally differently... I had weeks where we were playing the Steelers, if Troy was on the right and the play was called to the right, I had at the line of scrimmage to change it to the left.

Caleb Williams would be the first overall pick in the 2023 draft if he were eligible

Caleb Williams... He'd be the first pick in this year's draft if he could come out... there's not a clear cut. If he was in this draft it would be Caleb Williams and then everybody else. He's that good.

Bruce Arians was never wrong; even if he was berating you in front of your peers, he wouldn't do it unless you actually screwed up.

Even if he's embarrassing you in front of the media or in front of your teammates, at the end of the day, if the guy's right and you are incorrect, it kind of just is okay because he wouldn't do it unless you screwed up... He was never wrong. So he got on you, he was hard on you, but it's because you deserved it.

The Cleveland Browns will be a good spot once everything clicks

Once everything starts to click, that's going to be a good spot [Cleveland] because you look around that division... Baltimore's on the way down... Roethlisberger's got a couple years left... Cincinnati's always Cincinnati... Cleveland's going to be sitting there right at the right time to get good.

Ed Orgeron is the best defensive line coach on the planet

Coach Orgeron was the defensive line coach, the best defensive line coach on the planet. He got absolutely everything out of every player.

Josh Allen has the best upside of the 2018 draft class

The best upside of the draft class is Josh Allen. [Big Cat: Josh Allen. Yeah, there we go.]
