Speaker 2: Fan sometimes Slesmas, sometimes it does instead.

6
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,159
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, starting to get weepy. Back there already,

7
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 3: Mark dyked and you you are on the train where

8
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 3: you just think Alec Pierce is as good as gone,

9
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 3: right now.

10
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 4: Right clean next ready, I'm already wiping tears.

11
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 3: I think Kevin thinks it's not so quite clear at

12
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 3: this point in time. But James, what I heard yesterday,

13
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 3: and we'll play some of it here coming up in

14
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,639
Speaker 3: a moment. It just it sounded like it was difficult

15
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 3: for him to sometimes get the words out, and then

16
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 3: he did kind of ease up as the as the

17
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 3: interview went on. But sure sounds like you said it

18
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 3: best a guy that's open for business on the free market.

19
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,839
Speaker 5: Absolutely, Mark, If you have the audio queued up, let's

20
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 5: go to that so we can hear from Alec himself

21
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 5: when he was asked, I believe, by k Adams about

22
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 5: just the free agency experience, and you know what's kind

23
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 5: of his mindset going into it.

24
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 4: So now we may have a quarterback.

25
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 6: Now, how does that affect the way you're thinking what's

26
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 6: important to you?

27
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 7: Yeah? You know, at this point now it's like, I

28
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 7: love Indy. I've loved playing there. Great organization, great people

29
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 7: in the city. You know, just a lot of a

30
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 7: ton of support. I know we haven't been as good

31
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 7: as we we could be, and I know we can be,

32
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 7: but yeah, not at this point.

33
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 4: Kind of earned the right to.

34
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 7: Explore free agency, see what's out there, and just you know,

35
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 7: make a decision that's best for my career from my family.

36
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 3: You hear that The voice just sounded a little unsure,

37
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 3: didn't it. Who Alec Pierce sounded like he was struggling

38
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 3: to talk about how much he loved Indianapolis and all

39
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 3: those kinds of things.

40
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 5: I don't know if I interpreted like that. I think

41
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 5: that so as someone who's covered the guy for four years.

42
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 5: Alec does not talk about himself ever, even after he

43
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 5: has like great plays.

44
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 4: You know this, Kevin.

45
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 5: I mean, sometimes he's the one of the worst quotes

46
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 5: after a game and you're thinking of yourself. Boy, I

47
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 5: wish I had a little more you know, swagger in

48
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 5: this answer. But I do think that he kind of

49
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 5: made it clear. Look, man, I've earned the right to

50
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 5: weigh all my options and also I'm a damn good player,

51
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 5: so because of that, it won't come cheap.

52
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, when we get into these situations, we psycho analyze

53
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 8: the hell out of these interviews.

54
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:55,519
Speaker 4: Oh the coolttar too.

55
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 8: I mean it's my numbing can you imagine? Do you

56
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 8: remember is Jonathan Taylor wearing the hoodie today? Like it

57
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 8: was just like tracking all away Kevin having to try

58
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 8: and decipher this. So to a lot of people hearing

59
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 8: Alec Pierce have a fifteen minute interview yesterday, that might

60
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 8: have been the first time they've ever heard Alec Pierce

61
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 8: talk for longer than a minute.

62
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 9: In their lives.

63
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 8: Seriously, he just doesn't He's not a big talker. So

64
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 8: like when you listen to peers, Yeah, there are times

65
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 8: when you're like, oh, is he done answering a question

66
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 8: with Hey Adams, that's Alec Pierce. He's just not like

67
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 8: this long. You know, I don't know, expansive talker about

68
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 8: anything like, that's just really not him. We've had him,

69
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,119
Speaker 8: you know, I think on the show, you know, you're

70
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 8: not getting him on the show and thinking Okay, there's

71
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 8: four questions and twelve minutes. No, no, no, it's a

72
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 8: little bit more of the Shane Steichen camp. You're gonna

73
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 8: have to ask about twelve or fourteen questions to try

74
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 8: and get there. So I don't. I'm gonna try and

75
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 8: not like overly read body language and all of this

76
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 8: into Alec Pierce doing an interview that his agent probably

77
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 8: told him he had to do, because I think that's

78
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 8: largely what yesterday was. Now, you know, again, when you

79
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 8: hear his words, I understand when you just strictly transcribe

80
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 8: the question of what are you looking for in your

81
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 8: second contract? None of the three attributes he said would

82
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 8: explain the Colts to a common person. He wants what

83
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 8: quarterback play, he wants organizational stability, and he wants winning culture.

84
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 8: None of that is over there at West fifty sixth

85
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,919
Speaker 8: Street to I think the common person. Now, I'll reiterate

86
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 8: what I said earlier. I think he believes in Daniel Jones,

87
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 8: big time, big time. So I believe he views that,

88
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 8: assuming he gets done, as a pro for the Colts

89
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 8: and as something that would make him want to come

90
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 8: back there. But again, the other parts, organizational stability and

91
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 8: winning culture.

92
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 4: I mean, I guess there has been stability.

93
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 8: They haven't touched the GM in quite a while, but

94
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 8: the winning culture obviously has not been there.

95
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 9: James, how much is too much to keep Alec Pierce?

96
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 3: If there's an open bidding war with several teams out there,

97
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 3: what is the point at which you gotta do something else?

98
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 4: A tough question. I really don't know.

99
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 5: I mean, if he's asking for forty million, like he's

100
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 5: Jamar Chase, then no. But I think he'll probably be

101
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 5: somewhere in that twenty seven to thirty million dollar range.

102
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,679
Speaker 5: And again, this should not surprise you given the fact

103
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 5: that you did tag Daniel Jones, you did try to

104
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 5: save some money there, and you knew that Alec was

105
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 5: going to be expensive. Wrote a story and it came

106
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 5: out this morning. It wasn't anything that's like groundbreaking. I know, Kevin,

107
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 5: you cover it as well here on one of seven

108
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 5: five the fan dot com. I encourage you all to

109
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 5: read that. But I go back to November when we're

110
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 5: talking to Reggie Wayne and he's saying, oh yeah, his

111
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 5: price is going up. A week later, literally a week later,

112
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 5: Michael Pittman Junior says, oh yeah, we should probably get

113
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 5: that done like right now, because he's going to be expensive,

114
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 5: and he is expensive, so the Colts have not been

115
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 5: blindsided by any means. So now you're at the mercy

116
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 5: of a dude, dude who again has free will in

117
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 5: full control over his future. Now I do a fun

118
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 5: fact question for you all, and Kevin you might know

119
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 5: this because you're in the weeds like I am. How

120
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 5: many quarterbacks do you think Alec Pierce has had as

121
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 5: a starter in his four years in Indianapolis?

122
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 4: Which is a question for Jeff and Mark.

123
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 3: Uh in four years, I'm gonna go with.

124
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 9: Six.

125
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,799
Speaker 4: Mark, repeat that question one more time. Sorry.

126
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 5: How many starting quarterbacks has Alec Pierce had and is

127
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 5: four years with the Colts to start at least one game?

128
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 4: I'm trying to do mental math here.

129
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,799
Speaker 9: I'll say five. Nine.

130
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 8: Jesus wow, I was, I was writing them down. I

131
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 8: was at eight nine. Wows do you have in front

132
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 8: of him?

133
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 5: I haven't in front of me. If you want to

134
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 5: try to rattle them off, I can. I can let you.

135
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 9: I might have missed a whole year.

136
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 4: Let's see if you can.

137
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 8: Get on the Ryan sam Ellinger, Anthony Richardson, Joe Flacco, Riley,

138
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 8: Leonard Phillip Rivers, Nick Foles, Gardner Minshew.

139
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 4: God, that it's only been four years. My god, you

140
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 4: forgot the guy coming back on a transition.

141
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 9: Tag, Daniel Joe.

142
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 8: I'm my gosh, I'm an idiot.

143
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 4: One you did. You didn't get that alec is talking about.

144
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 5: You can't even name the guy who's supposed to be

145
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 5: the guy coming into this next season.

146
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 4: That's an insane a list for only four years.

147
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 8: I can see Nick Foles still doing snow ange or

148
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 8: cave on tiboda. Nick Foles is sitting on the I.

149
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 5: Was looking at this list and I was thinking to myself, boy,

150
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 5: outside of Riley starting the season finale this past season

151
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 5: or regular season finale, every.

152
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 4: Other quarterback started more.

153
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 5: Than once on this list, and they were playing in

154
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 5: meaningful games like I believe when Sam Ellinger took over

155
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 5: the Colts might have been I want to see maybe

156
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 5: three five and one or something.

157
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 4: They were like kind of in like the mix. It

158
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 4: wasn't like, oh.

159
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 5: We of course, not with the Colts. We want a

160
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 5: bunch of games. We're gonna sit a dude, let them play. No,

161
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 5: they like actually needed these guys, and so that to

162
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 5: me was mind blown when I went back through it

163
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 5: and kind of like Kevin tried to count him out,

164
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 5: and I'm like, wait a second, I think I'm missing something.

165
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 5: And then I went back and I was like, wait,

166
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 5: I got to seven, I think, and here we are

167
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 5: at nine.

168
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 4: Tough.

169
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, there is a part of me and I need

170
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 8: to probably remove myself from this here over the next

171
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 8: five days and again Monday by noon is probably the

172
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 8: next kind of deadline to watch here. But I I

173
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 8: there is an element of me. I'm like, the Colts,

174
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 8: aren't this dumb?

175
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 10: Right?

176
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 8: Right? Like I don't know, I don't know that I know,

177
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 8: but I have said that out loud. Maddie's probably looked

178
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 8: at me a few times in the last forty eight

179
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 8: hours like are you talking in your sleep here? But

180
00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 8: I've uttered that phrase. And let me explain. They've paid

181
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 8: all of these non premium positions over the years. They've

182
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 8: paid running back, they've paid linebacker, they've paid safety, they've

183
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 8: paid guard, they paid center a ton of money with

184
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 8: Ryan Kelly, Like, they've paid all of these non premium positions.

185
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 8: You're telling me when the premium position twenty five year

186
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 8: old with no major injury history and it possesses a

187
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 8: trait that is beyond coveted in today's NFL of creating

188
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 8: big plays consistently. You're telling me when it's time to

189
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 8: pay that dude, you're not going to That's where I'm like,

190
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 8: They're not that dumb, are they. They've paid all the

191
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 8: others that I would argue don't matter as much as

192
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 8: this guy does. Hell, they're willing to pay a quarterback

193
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,719
Speaker 8: off of torn Achilles in less than a year. And

194
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 8: now you have, I mean, name me a player at

195
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 8: a premium position that has had the start of a

196
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 8: career like Alec Pierce has had for this organization. You know,

197
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 8: there's not many, really, I mean, Bernard Rayman may be

198
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 8: the only one. Certainly, no one at defensive end, certainly,

199
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,199
Speaker 8: no one at cornerback, certainly know one at quarterback. And

200
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 8: all of a sudden, this guy pops up. You drafted him,

201
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 8: you've developed him, you've believed in him. Chris Ballwart has

202
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 8: always been a huge Alec Pierce believer. So that's where

203
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 8: I'm like, No, You're not that dumb, are you.

204
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 4: Here's what to Jet's point, is there a number, right?

205
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 3: And even if you met here's the thing, even if

206
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 3: the Colts match whatever the number is out there, Let's

207
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 3: say it gets to thirty million dollars and the Colts

208
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 3: go to your point, Kevin, gotta have this guy.

209
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 4: He's our guy.

210
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 3: We developed him, we found him, he's he's our guy.

211
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 3: But if one of the other teams is Kansas City

212
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 3: or Buffalo, if you're Alec Pierce, what do you do well?

213
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 8: The team that makes some news yesterday was New England

214
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 8: and at leasing safe fdays, opening up even more. They

215
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 8: already had some cap space, now they have even more.

216
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 8: They release a player six years older than Pierce at

217
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 8: that position, Drake May I think showed this year he

218
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 8: can throw the ball down the field at a very

219
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 8: high level.

220
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 4: He's also on a rookie deal.

221
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 8: That one was one that stood out to me. And

222
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 8: you know, Kay Adams did specifically ask him about Buffalo,

223
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 8: and you know he definitely was candid and saying, you

224
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 8: know that that would be special. I believe this is

225
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 8: exact quote. And Josh Allen obviously is a great, great player.

226
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 5: So she also threw in the Tennessee Titans and he

227
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 5: was like, oh yeah, they're closed.

228
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 8: When she started a quarterback, she started with the Titans

229
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 8: and the Giants. So I was like, where are we

230
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 8: going with this?

231
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 3: No, No, I would be beyond shocked if all things

232
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 3: being equal, he went to either the Giants or the Titans.

233
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 8: Well, I would say, do you think he runs to

234
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 8: highest bider?

235
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 4: No, I don't think he's wired that way.

236
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 5: But I do think that it is still a significant factor,

237
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 5: like what the price point is, which it should be

238
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 5: for any player in his position. But Alex doesn't strike

239
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 5: me as a type where it's like, whoever gives me

240
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 5: the absolute most.

241
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 4: Money, I'm gone.

242
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 5: But again, the Colts will have to open up that

243
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 5: check book and get creative, quite frankly when it comes

244
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 5: to trying to pay him long term and wellin the

245
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 5: next few days or so, doing some things, yes, to

246
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 5: help themselves to have I think I put it in

247
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 5: my story this morning, a legitimate chance to keep him

248
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 5: like hammer that point. Yeah, I mean it's not what's

249
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 5: the word I'm looking for. It's not even possible right

250
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 5: now for them to sign him. So they have to

251
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 5: make that possible. Just have the chance, a legitimate chance,

252
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 5: which means in my mind, you're trying to get a

253
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 5: long term deal done with Daniel Jones. Yesterday that's how

254
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 5: much we need to get this done, how quickly we

255
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 5: need to get this done. And then on top of that,

256
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 5: what other measures are you taking to create more cap space.

257
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 5: That could mean releasing Michael Pittman Jr. That could mean

258
00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 5: trying to find a trade partner for him, though that

259
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 5: will be very hard because he has a huge cat

260
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 5: hit next year. That could mean restructuring him. That could

261
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 5: mean getting rid of Zaire Franklin Kennymore. Whoever, when it

262
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 5: comes to trying to just find some dollars so you

263
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 5: can make an offer that is competitive with the rest

264
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 5: of the market, because if you cannot and you do not,

265
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 5: Alex has everywhere to leave.

266
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 3: So let me take it one step further, same thing

267
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 3: I asked yesterday, knowing what you know now today, more

268
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:29,079
Speaker 3: information from Alec Pierce himself. If you have to find

269
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 3: extra money to spend, what's more important to you, Kevin Bowen,

270
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 3: a guy like Trey Hendrickson at Edge or Alec Pearce

271
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 3: in his ability to stretch the field.

272
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, again, when it comes to Hendrickson, I will continue

273
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 8: to go with the Adolpha Oway situation. A little bit younger,

274
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 8: not coming off a hip surgery at the age of

275
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 8: thirty one. I'll be curious what the finances look like

276
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 8: for those two there. But James, you were all over

277
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 8: right there, you know, I asked Steven Holder yesterday, Pittman, Ziar, Franklin, Kennymore.

278
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 8: Are all four here next week? Are all four here

279
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 8: in September? I financially they have to do things creatively

280
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 8: to your point in the next handful of days, So

281
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 8: you know, to answer the question probably in a vacuum.

282
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 8: Defensive end is the bigger need. But Hendrickson versus Pierce,

283
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 8: to me is just that's not necessarily the pathway that

284
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 8: I would go down.

285
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 3: I think people are intrigued by it because of the

286
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 3: association between Henrickson and an Arumo.

287
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 8: Right right, I get that, and I think the colts,

288
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 8: you know, would have some intrigue there. But for me,

289
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 8: it's more of a you know again, can you try

290
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 8: and get a little bit younger at that position there?

291
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 10: Mark?

292
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 4: Who make a poll for that social media?

293
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 9: Sure?

294
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 5: Who would you rather have in free agency? If you

295
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 5: can only pick one, Trey Hendrickson or Alec Pierce?

296
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 8: I would say one player is ascending in Pierce and

297
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 8: the other player, you can make the argument is descending

298
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 8: in Hendrickson.

299
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 4: It's a good point.

300
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 5: But to Jeff's point, your edge rushers stunk outside of

301
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 5: laout too lot too, So do you want to try

302
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 5: to go get the guy who could be the splashy

303
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 5: free agent proven signing now? I will probably lean towards

304
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 5: Alec Pierce. I think he means that much to your

305
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 5: offense and how it looked with even a healthy Daniel Jones.

306
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 5: So if he's no longer a part of that equation,

307
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 5: I think it rages your offense drastically because the space

308
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 5: you get underneath because you have to respect Ala Piers

309
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 5: over the top, is very unique. It is unlike any

310
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 5: player in the NFL. Quite frankly. I mean, we're talking

311
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 5: about a guy who believed the last time someone had

312
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 5: this many yards per catch. I want to say Alex

313
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 5: was at twenty one point three last year, and also

314
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 5: a thousand yards in a season was sixteen years ago

315
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 5: with Deshaun Jackson in Philadelphia. So this doesn't happen very often.

316
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 5: I don't want to make it just seem like Alec

317
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 5: Pierce is Rashid Shaheed, the deep threat for Seattle who

318
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 5: was very explosive.

319
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 4: He's better than that.

320
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 5: As a true number one type of receiver, so I

321
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 5: would lean towards that. But also again, these are the

322
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 5: problems that you faced, Jeff, and I don't want to

323
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 5: dismiss it and say, you know, well, the hell with

324
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 5: the defense because that has to get revamped a lot too.

325
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, and that's I think a good point. It's like,

326
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 8: I'm not going to fall into this trap of like

327
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 8: it's easier to replace a wide out. Pierce is different

328
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 8: than That's what makes much all of these wide outs.

329
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 8: I've said it a million times. He possesses the hardest

330
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 8: trait to replace. This gets back into our Pierce and

331
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 8: Pittman debate. I remember having this debate back in training camp,

332
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 8: saying the Colts at the end of the at the

333
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 8: end of the season might have a decision to make

334
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 8: between Alec Pierce and Michael Pittman Junior. And to me,

335
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 8: before the season started, it was Pierce again, what is

336
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 8: easier to replace? To me, the Pittman sort of consistency.

337
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 8: As we watch the World Baseball Classic here in studio,

338
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 8: these singles and the doubles of Michael Pittman Junior is

339
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 8: easier to find than the extra base hits in the

340
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 8: home runs of Alec Pierce.

341
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I also think I'm just so impressed with I

342
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 3: just struck out what his ability the last couple of years.

343
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 3: He's getting better and better and better. It's just going

344
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 3: up and getting But he's six'. Three he goes up

345
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 3: and gets balls and takes him away from. Guys he

346
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 3: seems to come down with every tight window catch that's

347
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:15,479
Speaker 3: thrown his.

348
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 5: Way, James, YEAH i was having this conversation last year

349
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 5: With Reggie, wayne AND i hate WHEN i say last,

350
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 5: year like it was that long, ago last, season a

351
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 5: few months, ago last TIME i saw a risk past. Season,

352
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 5: Yeah And, jeff to your, POINT i was Asking Reggie,

353
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 5: wayne wait a. SECOND i know we kind of use

354
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,159
Speaker 5: the term fifty to fifty, ball but isn't it more

355
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 5: like seventy thirty eighty twenty When Ala pierce is, around

356
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 5: BECAUSE a he's either gonna catch it OR b you're

357
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 5: gonna pass interference with, him or at the very least

358
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 5: he'll like make sure that you don't turn it. Over

359
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 5: so typically it's a low risk play with a very

360
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 5: high risk or i'm, sorry high yielding. Reward so WHEN

361
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 5: i look At, alec, YES i think he's a very

362
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 5: unique player who can still do more than perhaps he

363
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 5: was asked to do in This colt's, offense and you

364
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 5: mentioned that throughout the interview With Kay. Adams, like wait a,

365
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 5: SECOND i have had conversations with The, colts AND i

366
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 5: would imagine when he, can't that'll be on the table

367
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 5: for other. Teams it's, like, okay how will you use

368
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 5: me BECAUSE i want a bigger piece of the.

369
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 8: Pie, yeah let's not overly read the Tenses Alec pierce

370
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 8: used in the interview With Kay adams. YESTERDAY i saw

371
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 8: some people in the YouTube chat discussing that. Earlier there

372
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 8: are times where he talks in past tense and there

373
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 8: are times where he talks in future tents about his

374
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 8: situations with The. Cults and again this gets back to

375
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 8: the start of the. Conversation we psychoanalyze all these. Interviews

376
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 8: that's what we. Do in Early, march we did With

377
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 8: Jonathan taylor around training camp and his contract. Dispute what's

378
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:43,959
Speaker 8: his bidy language, house he's.

379
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 9: Walking it's just.

380
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 8: Kind of How Alec pierce, talks you, Know he's just,

381
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 8: yeah yesterday is just kind of how he. Talks, NOW

382
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 8: i will reiterate for those that want hope for those

383
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 8: that want the doors still to be open For Alec

384
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 8: pearce returning to The. COLTS i think it is beyond

385
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 8: genuine his luw and his belief For Daniel. JONES i

386
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 8: know that that might sound crazy to, some BUT i

387
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 8: think that is very. REAL i think he is a

388
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 8: big believer In Daniel jones in his presence And. JAMES

389
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,639
Speaker 8: i also think he's a really really appreciative player Of

390
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 8: Reggie wayne and What Reggie wayne has meant For alex's.

391
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 8: Career And reggie has been again a massive believer In

392
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 8: Alex pierce from day one and believing that growth could

393
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 8: be there in his, game WHICH i think you saw

394
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 8: some of that this season and kind of rounded out

395
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 8: that route. Tree that's Where i've kind of said throughout this,

396
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 8: hour there's a lot you can listen to yesterday and

397
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 8: say he, Gone AND i firmly believe the market will

398
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 8: be uber, competitive AND i have serious questions if the

399
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 8: cults are going to put their big boy pants on

400
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 8: to compete on that open. Market but don't listen to

401
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 8: yesterday and think he is gone one thousand. PERCENT i

402
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 8: am not of that belief here On thursday.

403
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 3: MORNING i also want to point out just you mentioned

404
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 3: that he's got the highest yards per catch Since Deshaun.

405
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,120
Speaker 3: Jackson that's been a, while, Right but just to put

406
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 3: it in to today's, perspective if you throw Out Theoiese

407
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 3: junior who had six catches For miami's actually just, yeah

408
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 3: six receptions For miami and what of them happened to

409
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 3: be sixty three? Yards so it inflates. Everything you take

410
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 3: that cat out of the. Mix the ENTIRE Nfl Alec

411
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 3: pierce at twenty one point three yards per reception last

412
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 3: year on forty seven receptions is almost in, fact he

413
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 3: is for almost almost four yards better than the next

414
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 3: receiver in THE, nfl which Goes Calvin, Ridley Christian, Watson Jamison,

415
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 3: Williams Kayshawn, Boude Nico, Collins George, Pickens terry.

416
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 9: McLaurin way more yards per catch than all those.

417
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 3: Guys special, player and it's two years in a row

418
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 3: that he's averaging better than twenty yards a.

419
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 4: Catch that's what's probably helping him as.

420
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 5: WELL i know he hasn't had like the back to

421
00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 5: back thousand thousand yard, seasons well truly like dominant touchdown.

422
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 5: SEASONS i believe he had six this past, season maybe

423
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 5: seven of the year before or something like. That but

424
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 5: the yards per, catch the ability to flip the, field the,

425
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 5: explosives that is what Makes alec different than anybody. Else and, honestly,

00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 5: ALSO i must, say probably the sharpest dressed man in the.

513
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 5: Business the man has many suits like Camera Wolf, brother

514
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 5: you be.

515
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 4: Clean so on that, NOTE i.

516
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 5: Do want to pivot a little bit to people who

517
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,479
Speaker 5: maybe are not as clean when it comes to decision.

518
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 4: Making that would be The Indianapolis.

519
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 5: Colts do you think they made the right decision to

520
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 5: Tag Daniel jones Over Alec peerce.

521
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 10: My personal, opinion THOUGH i would have gone the other.

522
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,439
Speaker 10: WAY i think there's so much uncertainty coming off an

523
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 10: achille surgery For Daniel. JONES i get.

524
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:32,400
Speaker 9: It quarterback is.

525
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 10: The most important position In Daniel jones was playing really

526
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 10: well for most of the time before the. Injury but

527
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 10: a lot of money to commit to someone and to

528
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 10: commit to your salary cap without necessarily knowing what he's

529
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 10: going to look like In september or if it's even

530
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 10: ready week one In. September so you, KNOW i might

531
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 10: have explored a little bit more of a risky. Strategy you,

532
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,400
Speaker 10: know you See kyler or you see some of these

533
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 10: other quarterbacks coming up that you probably can get at the,

534
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 10: minimum and say what could we do for the other

535
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 10: thirty five million? Dollars and you, know sign A Trey,

536
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 10: hendrickson do it for a few other things and take our.

537
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,439
Speaker 10: Chances BUT i get. It you, Know Chris, ballard you

538
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 10: Know Shane, stiken you, know whether they admit it or,

539
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 10: not are probably on a little bit of a hot

540
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 10: seat going into twenty twenty. Six and you rather do

541
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 10: that with somebody that you're comfortable, with, uh and that

542
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 10: you played well with rather than.

543
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:21,920
Speaker 9: Unknown.

544
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 8: Again Cameron wolf is with us. Here you can find

545
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 8: HIS coverageoe OVER Nfl Network During combine, week he was

546
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 8: all over The Anthony richardson trade request. Story let's shift

547
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 8: gears there. HERE i know it's been a little back

548
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 8: burner for us this week with The Daniel jones And

549
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 8: Alec pierson, News but, uh at the end of the,

550
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,679
Speaker 8: day why do you think it has gotten to this

551
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 8: point where it sounds like there is a mutual, uh

552
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 8: kind of agreeing that it's time for this marriage to

553
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 8: end Between Anthony richardson and The.

554
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 9: Colts.

555
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 10: Yeah, look it hasn't worked, out you, know AND i

556
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 10: think there's blame on both. Sides you, Know Anthony richardson

557
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 10: has not stayed. Healthy he probably hasn't prepped the way

558
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,399
Speaker 10: that he needed, to especially early in his career to

559
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 10: be a starting, quarterback and The colts said they knew

560
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 10: they needed to be, patient AND i don't think they

561
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 10: were patient enough for developing their probably the rawst quarterback

562
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 10: that ever won in the top five to come, out

563
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 10: and SO i think it just needs a fresh. Start you,

564
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 10: Know richardson needs to go to a place that has

565
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,919
Speaker 10: enough patience in time to let, him you, know be

566
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:22,919
Speaker 10: the fullness of the quarterback he. IS i don't know

567
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 10: if he ever is a competent long term starting, quarterback

568
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 10: BUT i don't think that he would have ever been

569
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,199
Speaker 10: that In. Indianapolis, so, yes last week they had a

570
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 10: meeting during the combine and essentially The colts Told richardson's,

571
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,880
Speaker 10: team we're moving forward With Daniel, jones and richardson teams, said,

572
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 10: hey best for us to get a fresh.

573
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 9: Start and they agreed with.

574
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 10: That right, now they've been talking trade options throughout the.

575
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,120
Speaker 10: Weekend they're going to be some big trade. Market i'd

576
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 10: imagine that you're seeing A day three pick or you,

577
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 10: know a player for players swap type deal. Here BUT

578
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 10: i think they're trying to find that right, compensation that right,

579
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 10: Team AND i do know That indy's working With richardson's

580
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 10: rep to find the right team and not just the right,

581
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 10: package so they're doing right by him in that. Respect and,

582
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 10: yeah we'll. See i'd imagine you hear some news here

583
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 10: in the next week or two on Where richardson's going

584
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 10: to be and they'll just kind of clean that clock

585
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 10: and start a.

586
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 8: New so you envisioned something kind of Long Trey lance

587
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 8: a few years, ago like a like a fourth round.

588
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 9: Pick, yeah, YEAH i.

589
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 10: Definitely it may not even be a fourth it might

590
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 10: be a stick or pick. SWAP i don't think that

591
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 10: the value is extremely. High you also got to think about.

592
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 10: This richardson's making a bit of money in twenty twenty,

593
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 10: sixth so you know a team's got to take a

594
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 10: chance on not only, him but the money as. Well

595
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 10: SO i think you're you're going to look at A

596
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 10: day three pick or a pick swap of some sort for.

597
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 10: Him and, yeah The Trey lance situation is interesting because

598
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 10: from WHAT i, Understand richardson and his team are not

599
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 10: not set on, like, hey we've got to go to

600
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 10: a spot that allows us to be the starter or

601
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 10: compete to be a. Starter that opens up the window

602
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 10: for other, teams you, know a team like The, rams

603
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 10: a team that may have a veteran quarterback but may

604
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 10: need a guy that can develop and potentially become that

605
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 10: long term, option sort of like How Daniel jones did In.

606
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 10: Minnesota SO i think you'll see these teams kind of

607
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 10: explore their main options here in freegency this next, week

608
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 10: and then whoever doesn't maybe get their big fish or

609
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 10: their main priority will probably circle back To Anthony richardson

610
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 10: and make a.

611
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 9: Trade get.

612
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 3: Done Cameron WILTH Nfl network joining us on the Paylst

613
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 3: liquors hotline right. Now with all the attention On Daniel

614
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 3: jones And Alec pierce right, now still a lot of

615
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 3: needs for The. Colts they've got a lot to do.

616
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 3: Defensively they've stated they want to get younger and. Faster

617
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 3: they certainly need help at the edge. Position they're, currently

618
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 3: like many, teams a little bit over the salary. Cap

619
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 3: what is likely to happen for this team aside From Alec.

620
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 3: Pearson does The Alec pierce trickle down to everything?

621
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 10: Else, yeah it's such an interesting scenario because it kind

622
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,200
Speaker 10: of reminds here The giant situations some years ago With

623
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 10: Daniel jones and and Say Kawn. Barkley all the talk

624
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 10: was how do you make it? Work how do you

625
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 10: get both? Guys The giants ended up getting both guys

626
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 10: and they send it still ended up, awful and both

627
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 10: guys ended up. Leaving, Eventually coach gets fired because the

628
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 10: roster itself wasn't good enough around. Them and so when

629
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,840
Speaker 10: you guys ask me my personal preference of WHAT i

630
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 10: would have, done that's WHY i SAID i might not

631
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 10: HAVE i might have taken a chance With Daniel jones

632
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 10: BECAUSE i don't know if the roster is currently constructed

633
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 10: is good enough even bringing Both Daniel jones And Alex

634
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 10: pearce back to be able to compete at the level

635
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 10: they need to compete.

636
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 9: At so they're gonna have to be.

637
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 10: Creative you, KNOW i would have loved to see them

638
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 10: being The Trey hendrickson, market but if they're going to

639
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 10: go For Alex pearce And Daniel, jones that's not.

640
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 9: Going to be.

641
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 10: Feasible so they're gonna have to get creative and figure

642
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 10: out how do you get this defense to position where

643
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 10: we can compete since we're heavily invested in this offensive.

644
00:30:54,600 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 5: Spire cameron looking at The Daniel jones that you and

645
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 5: you talk about how you probably would have Tagged Alec

646
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 5: pierce when it comes To, Daniel do you think there's

647
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 5: real threat from another team to sign, him because in

648
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 5: my mind that is probably why The colts pen the

649
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 5: transition tag on, him which still allows other teams to

650
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 5: bid on.

651
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 4: Him for.

652
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 10: Sure for, SURE i think there certainly would be interested

653
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 10: at a certain price. POINT i think that quarterback is

654
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 10: such an important position that it's one of the tough

655
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 10: to be risky about. It and it's easy for me

656
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 10: to say out here on my couch or out walking

657
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 10: my dog right, now to.

658
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 9: Say, hey, yeah just roll the.

659
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 10: Dice you, know nobody's going to sign a Post Achilles

660
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 10: Daniel jones the thirty five plus million. Dollars maybe somebody

661
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 10: could have JUST i just based on the fact that

662
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 10: his track record hadn't been would it had, been and

663
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 10: we got maybe six to eight games on, HIM i

664
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 10: don't know that he's more desirable than A malink willis

665
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,479
Speaker 10: on the market given what we've, seen and so because of,

666
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,719
Speaker 10: THAT i would have taken the. CHANCE i Know minnesota

667
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 10: certainly had some in. Him now they don't have a

668
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 10: lot of money, either and they had him in the

669
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 10: building and let him. Go did they go from, hey

670
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 10: we don't want to pay him ten million dollars to

671
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 10: now we're willing to pay him a thirty five million

672
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 10: plus deal with some. GUARANTEES i don't know that's the case.

673
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 10: Either so you, know The, jets maybe they're the other

674
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 10: team in the mix, There but, again that's a team

675
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 10: THAT i don't think they're a quarterback. Away miami doesn't

676
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 10: have the. MONEY i JUST i didn't see a lot

677
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 10: of options Where i'm Saying i've got To i'm forced

678
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 10: to use the tag in this. Way but they know

679
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 10: a lot and maybe they had some some insight on

680
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 10: a team that might have might have spoiled their plan

681
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 10: if they if they rolled.

682
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 4: Today, cavin thanks for your time this.

Speaker 9: You. Cooch you got your Cameraon wolf joining.

689
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 3: Us it's wasted on radio being the best dressed man in,

690
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 3: television isn't?

691
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 4: It the man be.

692
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 5: SHARE i, mean that's to use my father's, terms be,

693
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 5: sharp because he is always pretty.

694
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 4: Dapperble BUT i think he made some good points.

695
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 5: THERE i think he's leaning more towards your, Side, kevin

696
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 5: when it comes to who you would have. Tagged but

697
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 5: again we go back to is there any position in

698
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 5: sports that is so differently valued than quarterback in? Football, because,

699
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 5: man if this were even like a pitcher in, baseball

700
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 5: you're not pitching every. Night you know THE, nba your

701
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 5: best player can be any position on the. Floor so,

702
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 5: boy it pays to be a, quarterback and it pays

703
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 5: to be a quarterback who had half a good. SEASON

704
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 5: i go back to, this And i've been asking myself this.

705
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 4: Question you, all.

706
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 5: How many games would have been too little for The

707
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 5: colts to commit to? Him if he let's say he,

708
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 5: okay they were eight and, Two i'll give him those ten.

709
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 5: Games what number would have been too little to say

710
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 5: we believe in this? Guy ten games is not a, lot,

711
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 5: right chose.

712
00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 8: You the desperation of The colts in their quarterback sits.

713
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 5: Absolutely and the desperation to not start to cycle over,

714
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 5: Again i'll what camera was talking about with Chasing Kyler

715
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 5: murray or someone else on the.

716
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 8: Market and, again a lot of this roots back to,

717
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 8: him you don't have your first round pick for this year.

718
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,800
Speaker 8: NEXT i still am trying to wrap my mind around

00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 3: balls and his growing ability to be a guy that

779
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 3: can get a twelve yard route down and make a key.

780
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,359
Speaker 3: Catch i've seen that grow more than.

781
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:50,800
Speaker 4: Anything.

782
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 5: Yeah but to give a defensive answer For, KEVIN i

783
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 5: would say we probably are Overshooting. Alec but that is

784
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:04,280
Speaker 5: what happens with every good player that reaches free agency

785
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 5: and perhaps isn't a great. Player AND i think that

786
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,839
Speaker 5: he has a, great like one great unique skill, set

787
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,919
Speaker 5: which is the downfield. Stuff, now you can obviously get

788
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 5: better and To jeff's, point expand his. Game but DO

789
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 5: i Think Alex pierce is going to be a top

790
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 5: five receiver in this?

791
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 4: League? No but that's not a knock on.

792
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 5: Him is just the fact that, again every time a

793
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 5: good player reaches free, agency another team will have to

794
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 5: overpay to get, him because in a normal, World Alec

795
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 5: pierce doesn't reach free.

796
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 4: Agency so there you have.

797
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 3: IT i just want to point out one more time

798
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 3: and again we talked about, statistics, right he has one

799
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty seven career receptions and he's still averaging

800
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:49,840
Speaker 3: almost nineteen yards to.

801
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 9: Catch that's not a small sample, Size. Kevin. No.

802
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,320
Speaker 8: No and you know the fact that he's led the

803
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 8: league each of the last two, YEARS i think is

804
00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:59,799
Speaker 8: also very. Noteworthy it wasn't just a one year one

805
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 8: Der and, again to use the baseball, analogy he is

806
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 8: a home run, hitter AND i think this, year this past,

807
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,360
Speaker 8: year he showed a little bit more single and double

808
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 8: to his. Game you, know one of the bigger plays

809
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,520
Speaker 8: of the, season If Jason myers doesn't hit a sixty

810
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:14,720
Speaker 8: some yard field, goal would have been the back shoulder

811
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 8: throw From Philip rivers To Alec pierce late in That seattle.

812
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 8: Game you know what was that third and? Seven not

813
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 8: a home run hitter by any, means but just a

814
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 8: big time conversion when The colts desperately needed a la

815
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 8: Little Charlie becker in The National Title game when For

816
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 8: Nando menoza needed some big time throws There, mark what

817
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 8: is the result of that, Poll, well it's.

818
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,399
Speaker 11: Not as big a runaway as it was For Alec,

819
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,800
Speaker 11: pearce but it is still pretty much a clear. Winner

820
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,919
Speaker 11: Alec pierce seventy seven point, Six Trey hendrickson twenty two point.

821
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 8: Four and, AGAIN i, think in an ideal, world albeit

822
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 8: that world is hard to, imagine On march, fifth The

823
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 8: colts would have both of those. Guys now you, know

824
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 8: what does that look like over the next. Week oh,

825
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:00,799
Speaker 8: boy that's a lot of decision making that The colts

826
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 8: have not really done in past. History and the other,

827
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 8: thing you, Know i've probably done this a lot With,

828
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:10,320
Speaker 8: Pierce but, again to, me he just possesses a very unique.

829
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 8: Trade like people are, like, oh just come back in

830
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 8: the draft and draft a white. Out these types of

831
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:18,800
Speaker 8: whiteouts don't. Exist it's why you've HAD nfl teams offer

832
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:22,240
Speaker 8: The colts in past years high draft picks For Alec

833
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,799
Speaker 8: pierce because he is a home run hitter in a

834
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 8: league where.

835
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,280
Speaker 4: Home run hitting does not really.

836
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 8: Exist it's very hard to consistently create those. Plays and

837
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,800
Speaker 8: he's done. It with bad quarterback play for now multiple,

838
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 8: seasons AND i think that's what's, Coveted and, yeah you

839
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,840
Speaker 8: go draft Whatever malchi fields on noted. Day, yeah that

840
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 8: is very wishful thinking that that dude's gonna walk in

841
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:48,840
Speaker 8: THE nfl and all of a sudden give you What

842
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:50,880
Speaker 8: pierce gives. You AND i just don't think this offense

843
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 8: clicks anywhere near like you did the first two months

844
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 8: of the season Without PIERCE a creating the big plays

845
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 8: AND b making defensive cour coordinators sleep poorly in games

846
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 8: leading up to The. Colts do we keep a safety

847
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 8: over the? Top how do we Handle Alec? Pierce are

848
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 8: you going to trust? Him trust a corner in man? Coverage,

849
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 8: now let's think About Jonathan. Taylor, now let's think About Tyler.

850
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 8: Warren all of that is necessary for The colts to

851
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 8: get back to what they were the first two months

852
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 8: of the.

853
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 3: Season james remind, us what are The colts' best options

854
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,439
Speaker 3: right now of getting back under the cap and having

855
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 3: a little bit of room to.

856
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 5: Maneuver so the easiest one in the first, STEP i

857
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 5: think will be to get a multi year deal done

858
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 5: With Daniel, jones because right now his thirty eight million

859
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 5: dollars fully counts against the cap for this, season so

860
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 5: you want to be able to spread that out over multiple,

861
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:47,280
Speaker 5: years which is why a long term contract is. Essential

862
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 5: and then after that you're looking at the first guy

863
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 5: on the, list in my, Opinion Michael Pipin. Junior you

864
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:55,319
Speaker 5: could release him and create twenty four million dollars in cap.

865
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 5: Space you could also try to trade, him you could

866
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 5: restructure him something along those, lines so similar themes With Zaire,

867
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:02,360
Speaker 5: Franklin Kenny moore the.

868
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:03,839
Speaker 4: Second and then you.

869
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 5: Also want to look at perhaps restructuring and extending some

870
00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,840
Speaker 5: of your better players Like Quentin nelson for. Example he

871
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,399
Speaker 5: ain't going, anywhere so give him a, raise extend, him

872
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:15,280
Speaker 5: and then spread the money.

873
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 4: Out that, way you are able to get under the.

874
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 5: Cap and not only, that you're able to Give Alec

875
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:24,759
Speaker 5: pierce a real market value offer because it will be.

876
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 3: Expensive, well there's gonna be a lot of maneuvering that's

877
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:28,560
Speaker 3: going to have to be done by the.

878
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 8: Indiety so, yeah And i'll just add one more, thing you,

879
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,880
Speaker 8: know this one here From. Eric, yeah he worries a

880
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 8: little bit more about the. VOLUME i Like, pierce but

881
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 8: you know, questions you, know the. Volume can he get

882
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 8: to be an eighty ninety catch. GUY i get that's

883
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,479
Speaker 8: a part when you become whatever the thirty million dollars

884
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:50,359
Speaker 8: wide out he's likely to. BECOME i do think he

885
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 8: can get to be in a bigger catch guy than

886
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 8: he has. Been, again he's not really hasn't been asked

887
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:57,919
Speaker 8: to do. It it's not like he's dropping a bunch

888
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 8: of balls that is not allowing him catch this. Many

889
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:04,800
Speaker 8: it's just in the role of this Offense Taylor Warren pittman,

890
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 8: downs he's not asked to do that as. MUCH i

891
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 8: do think he can get. There and, AGAIN i just

892
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:14,719
Speaker 8: don't fret over that as. Much how many dudes how

893
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 8: many Catches Michael Pittman junior have this?

894
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 3: Season we'll go back and look that, up BUT i

895
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:21,360
Speaker 3: want to say seventy?

896
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,919
Speaker 8: Five, YEAH o, god let's just say let's call it eighty.

897
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,600
Speaker 8: Five how many guys in THE nfl do you think

898
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 8: caught eighty five balls this past?

899
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:28,959
Speaker 3: Year eight?

900
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,800
Speaker 8: NINE i would probably argue a little bit more of.

901
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,200
Speaker 8: That let's call it ten or. Fifteen how many dudes

902
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:39,080
Speaker 8: averaged twenty something yards per catch Like alex chirst. One that,

903
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 8: again what is easier to replace what is easier to,

904
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 8: find not to, mention we're talking about a dude In

905
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,400
Speaker 8: pierce who's what three or four years younger Than Michael

906
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 8: pittman as.

907
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 4: Well, yeah as crazy as it.

908
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:54,959
Speaker 5: Sounds so last, Season Michael Pittman junior head eighty, RECEPTIONS

909
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,800
Speaker 5: alec had eighty four, targets so certainly wants a bigger

910
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 5: role going into twenty twenty. Six and, honestly that bigger

911
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 5: role might come at the, expense the literal expense Of

912
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:07,280
Speaker 5: Michael Pittman.

913
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,799
Speaker 3: Jr, yeah only seventeen receivers had eighty catches or more

914
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 3: and only nine had ninety or.

915
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:16,360
Speaker 8: More so there you, Go james said the number, there seventeen,

916
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:20,240
Speaker 8: dudes fifteen dudes whatever caught as many balls As. Pittman

917
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,920
Speaker 8: and part of that Is pittman's durability helps him in that,

918
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 8: area which again is something that you, Know i'm more

919
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,800
Speaker 8: of in the restructure Of Michael Pittman junior than the outright.

920
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 8: Cut but oh, boy we got to lock in because

921
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 8: this is. Uh in the next seven to eight, days

922
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 8: we're about to get a whole lot more in The

923
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 8: colts news. Front there's it has to happen if they're

925
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 5: By the, way did you mention you said eighty. Catches,

926
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,960

936
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 3: Anybody he's just got to figure it.

937
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 8: Out it was easy to Spot jeff's son last night

938
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 8: inside Of Hinklefield. House not Many Ady Mitchell jets, jerseys

940
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,800

00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,400
Speaker 8: Calls Him ada AND i, right, yeah, yeah that's what it.

943
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 9: Is.

944
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 4: Right, No, No but here's my question we were talking.

945
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 3: About BECAUSE i was looking at the number of catches

946
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 3: guys head and this list number two on that, list

947
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 3: and he was almost the entire offense last. Year But trey,

948
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,920
Speaker 3: McBride the tight end for The, cardinals had one hundred

949
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 3: and twenty six. Receptions, NOW i don't, think you, know

950
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 3: by no means DO i think That Tyler warren is

951
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:51,640
Speaker 3: going to approach anything near.

952
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 4: That but he needs to.

953
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 3: Be a bigger central part of this offense moving, forward

954
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 3: does he?

955
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 8: Not, YEAH i think a little little rookie. Wall and

956
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 8: as we pointed, OUT i think the lack of mobility

957
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 8: and movement From Daniel jones in the second half of

958
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 8: the season really hurt The Tyler.

959
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:10,920
Speaker 3: Warren PACER's played last night against The Los Angeles, clippers

960
00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:14,359

00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 6: as competitive as they come to face your former.

975
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 9: Team it's an emotional.

976
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,560
Speaker 6: One it's an abrupt change for these guys in the

977
00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:59,400
Speaker 6: middle of the season versus you, know maybe it was

978
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,279

979
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:03,400

983
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,920
Speaker 6: thing AND i thought he did kind of exactly, That

984
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 6: and there was one in particular path that really was.

985
00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 6: STRIKING i was, like we wouldn't have seen that in

986

Speaker 6: year one or year two Of, Matherin and so that's

987
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,480

00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 6: sites that were not necessarily familiar with at least the men's,

Speaker 6: Were so.

1027
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:18,280
Speaker 4: It sounds like that available.

1028
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:20,000
Speaker 9: To watch.

1029
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:24,239

Speaker 5: were talking about With caitlin And aliyah both heading down,

1035
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:40,400
Speaker 5: there AND i guess pivot away from my nefarious internet

1036
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:43,319
Speaker 5: browsing history when it comes to finding the sports ON?

1037
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:44,880

1038
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 5: Tv but, nevertheless is A Leah boston do we have an?

1039
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:49,520
Speaker 5: Update is she going to be? Playing BECAUSE i do

1040
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 5: know that she FINISHED i believe her unrivaled season with

1041
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:53,560
Speaker 5: a lower extremity.

1042
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 6: Injury you're, right and it felt like hockey the way Unrival.

1043
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 9: We still well don't completely know.

1044
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 6: What aery McDonald's injury was OF, noe but it was

1045
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:06,839
Speaker 6: clearly enough to keep her out basically all of the

1046
00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:10,279
Speaker 6: unrivaled season stuff for in that LIKE i think it

1047
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:11,399
Speaker 6: was the first, game might have been.

1048
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 9: The second game of the.

1049
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,440
Speaker 6: Season, No i've been efforting trying to get something more

1050
00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 6: nailed down, There, james because is it something of great.

1051
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,920
Speaker 6: Concern it's got to be a little, bit, right because

1052
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:24,759
Speaker 6: you're not going to sit out championship type. Games and

1053
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:28,279
Speaker 6: so she missed the semi finals and last night's championship

1054
00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:30,799
Speaker 6: game with six hundred thousand dollars on the line to be.

1055
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 9: Split amongst your.

1056
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,880
Speaker 6: Team she was, around she was there In brooklyn for

1057
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:38,399
Speaker 6: the semi, finals so she was. Traveling did not see

1058
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:41,040
Speaker 6: a foot in a boot or anything like, That but

1059
00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:42,759
Speaker 6: we do not know more just.

1060
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:46,839
Speaker 3: Yet Scott agnes joining us on The Payless liquors, hotline

1061
00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:49,759
Speaker 3: and we've talked a little bit about zoobots and what

1062
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,280
Speaker 3: we see from. There but it's a seven game losing

1063
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 3: streak and they got some good teams coming. UP i

1064
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:56,319
Speaker 3: know the Play sacramento at the end of this road,

1065
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,080
Speaker 3: trip but, like how many wins are left on this

1066
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:00,160
Speaker 3: schedule the rest the?

1067
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:05,360
Speaker 6: Year, ooh another over under, Here let's take a stab

1068
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,880
Speaker 6: AT i, mean, yeah you basically have. TWENTY i mean

1069
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 6: you're probably looking at. Four without looking at the, opponents

1070
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 6: you're probably at.

1071
00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 9: Four maybe what do you THINK i might take the

1072
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:16,799
Speaker 9: under on that?

1073
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 2: One, yeah the real, well it's all the thing that's

1074
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:25,800
Speaker 2: been so challenging lately has just been the atrocious defense

1075
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:27,399
Speaker 2: and then not getting stops and then.

1076
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:27,880
Speaker 9: They turn it.

1077
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,360
Speaker 6: Over there's a point in the middle of the second

1078
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:33,880
Speaker 6: quarter where last night The clippers had zero turnovers and

1079
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 6: The pacers HAD i think eight If.

1080
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,960
Speaker 9: I'm remembering, Correctly and so that's just completely changed.

1081
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,880
Speaker 6: It you got all these new lineups in different things

1082
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:41,560
Speaker 6: in the middle two.

1083
00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,200
Speaker 9: Quarters is what's really bothering.

1084
00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:46,719
Speaker 6: Them and so, YEAH i mean you're probably right going

1085
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:48,560
Speaker 6: back To kb's, saying it's probably three and.

1086
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 9: A half wins over this final stretch if, that man oh.

1087
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 6: Man and if you look by the way at the

1088
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:58,319
Speaker 6: bottom of The Eastern, conference the bottom five, TEAMS i,

1089
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:01,200
