1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: Let's talk some football with Greg Bell, who I understand

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: is uh has moved from the Combine in Indy to

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: Michigan to be with mom and his sister for a while.

4
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: So Greg, first and foremost, the most important question I

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 1: have for you is what's for dinner tonight?

6
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:17,319
Speaker 2: Man?

7
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 1: What is what is Mama Bell fixing for Greg to

8
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: night at home?

9
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 2: Well, we go out to visit.

10
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: Okay, Wow, she's her nineties.

11
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, Yes, she's done. She's done enough labor

12
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 2: for me over her lifetime. I ower a few dinners Bestiken.

13
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 3: Uh, No question about it.

14
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: Well, talk about like, let's just give your general thoughts

15
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 1: of what you saw at the combine. What jumped out

16
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 1: to you?

17
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 2: Well, for this most combines seemed to be this way,

18
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 2: certainly for me covering it as a Seahawk beyt writer.

19
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 2: But of all the combines that they've had recently, especially

20
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 2: under John Schneider that sixteen years, this one, the most

21
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 2: I've noticed is more about the free agents and specifically

22
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 2: keeping their own free agents than it is the college

23
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 2: prospects and the underwearre Olympics that starting this weekend, and

24
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 2: everything we see on TV of the combine. That's not

25
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 2: why John Schneider is there. John Schneider is there for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,

26
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 2: meeting with the agents for Kenneth Walker, for Rashijihi, for

27
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 2: Riq Willen and Kobe Bryant and Boy Mafe because especially

28
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,960
Speaker 2: in the case of Kenneth Walker, this is the first

29
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 2: time he's gotten to have a face to face conversation

30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 2: with Kenneth Walker's agents about what a new contract Michael

31
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: Loupeg because Walker just hired him last month. He hired

32
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 2: him the week of the NFC Championship game. David Canter

33
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 2: and is our sports group out of Florida. They haven't

34
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 2: had a chance to make any ground with the Seahawks

35
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 2: and Kenneth Walker's agents on a new deal, and of

36
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 2: course see that all this time to do it and

37
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 2: they haven't offered him anything. So this week was setting

38
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 2: a baseline from the agents of what the money would

39
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 2: take to re sign Seattle's own pending free agents, and

40
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 2: then the Seawxit John Schneider and his contract staff or

41
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 2: personnel guys will take that back to rent next week

42
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,239
Speaker 2: and then base a counter offer off of that. Of course,

43
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 2: the clock's ticking because March ninth is one of the

44
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 2: markets you can legally tamper with free agents, and then

45
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: the official signings begin two days later. So it's a

46
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 2: condensed process for Snyder the super Bowl. Yes. The thing

47
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 2: that the corollator that's interesting, guys about this is that

48
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 2: I asked Schnyder, what about having just four draft picks

49
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 2: and how that changes your approach to the combine and

50
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: he pretty much said, we had this mapped out a

51
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 2: year or two ago, that this draft class was not

52
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: deep enough and not quality enough to be too worried

53
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 2: about relatively fewer picks, which is part of the reason,

54
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 2: the big reason they traded two third day picks to

55
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 2: get Rashijihi during the season this past year season. And

56
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 2: so he's basically punting this draft. Now. He may pick

57
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 2: up a couple extra picks beyond the four because as

58
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 2: we know, he's picking thirty second at the bottom of

59
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: each of the first three rounds, right, but he's not

60
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 2: making this a priority this draft, and it sounds it

61
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 2: feels to me like the COVID year draft when they

62
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:18,959
Speaker 2: only had three pairs.

63
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, so if you look at this, what's your sense

64
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 3: of how they would prioritize. If you had to take

65
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 3: the free agents and list them no. Ties in order

66
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 3: of your perceived you know, importance coming from the Seahawk camp.

67
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 3: How would you rate the value of the free agents

68
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 3: and the Seahawks desire to sign.

69
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: Well, I said a little differently Hugh with I'll rate

70
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 2: him by likelihood of returning and being able to resign.

71
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 2: I think Rashichi he's the most likely and probably the easiest,

72
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: and that may be happening in the next few days,

73
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 2: next week. I'd be surprised if she he does not

74
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 2: come back for the reasons I've talked and written about before,

75
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 2: but primarily because he is a game breaking special teamer.

76
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 2: Yet they have Tory Horton coming back to be the

77
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: game breaking deep threat wide receiver, and so it's an

78
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: interesting situation that they're not going to need Rashid shi

79
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 2: heat in both roles next year. If it goes according

80
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 2: to plan and they get Horton back.

81
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: So great, do they just pay him as a special

82
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 1: teamer then is he going to sign?

83
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 2: I think that's what they're going to offer him, and

84
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 2: it'll be up to Shaheed whether they want to go

85
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 2: to market as a wide receiver and a special team.

86
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 2: I know the league values him much more as a

87
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 2: returner than as a wide receiver. I think Shaheed's going

88
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 2: to side with returning to a Super Bowl champion. He

89
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 2: loves Jay Harbaugh, he loves the culture. He has said

90
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 2: to me and others that he really wants to stay

91
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 2: here for as long as he could see, especially after

92
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 2: that was before they won the Super Bowl. I think

93
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 2: he's probably the easiest one to come back. The most complicated,

94
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 2: I want to bomb that, then I should go. The

95
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: second one is Kobe Bryant. The Seahawks value him with

96
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 2: anybody in the league because Mike mc donald values some

97
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 2: more than anybody league. They've had him three different positions.

98
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 2: I'd be really surprised if Bryant doesn't re sign. He's

99
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 2: McDonald loves how he works with Julian Love the most.

100
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 2: The doo complicated ones are to me are Woman, and

101
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 2: most of all Walker Woman because of his freakish physical

102
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 2: gifts six' four and the long arms and world class,

103
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 2: speed and the fact that he had A Pro bowl

104
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 2: selection in his rookieyear led the league with. Interceptions he's

105
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 2: gonna get, paid and he's gonna get paid a lot

106
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,359
Speaker 2: of money at the primary position of need in the.

107
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 2: League and once a guy gets this close to free,

108
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 2: agency especially a guy who didn't even start full time last,

109
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 2: year he's going to get paid and he's going to

110
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 2: price himself out Of. SEATTLE i Think Kenneth walker situated

111
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 2: absolutely has changed in the last four. Weeks, okay so,

112
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 2: well for the last year or, So John schneider has

113
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 2: budgeted what he was going to spend On walker if

114
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 2: he wanted to offer him on the assumption That Jack

115
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 2: charmonay would be in the job share with him again next.

116
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 2: Year charbonay's contract runs through next. Season he wasn't counting,

117
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 2: nobody of, course for See charboney was going to tear

118
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 2: HIS acl and be out probably into the start of next.

119
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 2: Season how much does that Change seattle's money To? Walker to,

120
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 2: me that's the, question because if they Don't tony up For,

121
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 2: walker they even count Of walker been in a parade

122
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 2: With Mickey mouse the day after The Super bowl, either

123
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 2: there's no way they could have envisioned that he'll never

124
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 2: be valued higher than he is. Now walker twenty five years,

125
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: old Super BOWL. Mvp how much more money is that

126
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 2: going to Cost seattle and how much more money are

127
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 2: they willing to spend because they don't Have charbonay guaranteed

128
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 2: to come back for next. Season SO i think that

129
00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 2: changes their calculus on. It and if they don't Resigned, walker,

130
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 2: guys you're going to. Well PLAN b is a very poor.

131
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: Draft and as you can tell, you can't count on

132
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 2: a rookie running back coming out of a college football

133
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 2: offense and be a bellcow running back in THE. Nfl

134
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 2: there's too much to. Learn you're reading plays off of cartoon,

135
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 2: characters off of cards one word. Plays you're, running, running,

136
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: shooting no, huddles you're not pass. Blocking it's just you're

137
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 2: not running outside. ZONE i, mean it is just it

138
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 2: is so different for a running back in THE nfl

139
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 2: compared to college football now that then it's even five

140
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 2: years ago that that beep is quantum THAT i can't

141
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 2: think they would be able to count on. That so

142
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 2: what does that? Mean does that mean A Breis hall

143
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 2: if The jets don't make to play to keep, Him

144
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 2: does that mean a free a younger twenty something free

145
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 2: agent like? That the league is really, reluctant as we,

146
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: know to spend money on multi year deals guaranteed, money

147
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 2: second contract to a position at the most attraded and

148
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 2: shortest lifespan in the.

149
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 3: League Greg bell WITH us And GREG i find it.

00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 3: could say there's a certain turbo button In Deva witherspoon

158
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 3: that shows up when you watch the. Tape maybe he

159
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 3: isn't in that, category but the first three those guys

160
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 3: are literally like record setting in their. Traits is do

161
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 3: you think that that that speaks to make Me mike

162
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 3: McDonald's willingness to, Say, okay let me take these these

163
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 3: guys that are just off the chain in their physical

164
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 3: all of their measurables at the, combine AND i can

165
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 3: teach him how to be a football. Player you, know

166
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 3: there's a Reason Nick eminory was.

167
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 2: In the second.

168
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 3: Round they didn't think that he had those type of,

169
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 3: instincts and so at any, rate what about the idea

170
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 3: of this freak show on either side of the, ball

171
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 3: particularly on, defense and whether there's anybody that might fit the,

172
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 3: bill and how The seahawks feel about that these guys

173
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,199
Speaker 3: that just test out in this incredible.

174
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 2: Way, yes to answer your, question but those were in

175
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 2: years The seahawks didn't make the playoffs and they were

176
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 2: drafting more in the low teens and upper twenties now

177
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 2: at the bottom of each of the first three. Rounds

178
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: the other, thing they had the draft, capital the trade

179
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 2: capitol last year to go up seventeen spots to get even.

180
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 2: Worried they don't have that this. Year part of the

181
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 2: reason they don't have is because they traded up to

182
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 2: get even, worried and then they traded For. Shiki they

183
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 2: may have four, picks, Right so these freaks that these

184
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 2: that are going to the Next Thursday friday you'll see

185
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 2: on national television In, indianapolis they aren't gonna be available

186
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 2: in the rounds That seattle's gonna be able to. PICK

187
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 2: i can't see The seahawks being able to.

188
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 3: Move kellen was a fifth rounder AND dk was the

189
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 3: end of the second. Round And nick, was you, know

190
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 3: early six second round in theory.

191
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 2: They could they trade. Mecaf they did trade to Get,

192
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 2: Metcalf they did trade to get even worry they trade

193
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 2: to back up into the second round to Get. Metcalf

194
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 2: they don't have the ability this year to do. That

195
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 2: so only if a guy falls to them are they

196
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 2: gonna be able to get snag somebody like. That but you're,

197
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 2: Right Cam chanceller is a fifth round. Pick Richard sherman

198
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,839
Speaker 2: was a fifth round. Pick they just have fewer opportunities

199
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: done because of just the four, picks three in the

200
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 2: first three rounds and then one after. That SO I

201
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 2: i really don't want to put water on fans excitement

202
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 2: for the draft Around, seattle But i'm telling you this

203
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 2: is a, devalued de emphasized draft from the Way John

204
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 2: snyder's sitting right, Now Craig bell joined.

205
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: Us Greg Is DeMarcus lawrence going to?

206
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 2: RETIRE i don't. Think. SO i asked McDonald That Brady

207
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 2: henderson respn That CON's been on the beat a long,

208
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 2: time and he more of a supposition was putting connecting

209
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 2: dots saying he's going to be thirty. Four he's been

210
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 2: in the league twelve, years he finally got who he

211
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 2: didn't get in eleven years in the league In, dallas

212
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 2: and he wins The Super, bowl why not walk out on?

213
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 2: Top and that's, Plausible SO i asked McDonald and at the,

214
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 2: combine and McDonald, said. Nope lawrence told him he's coming.

215
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 2: Back Jared reed told him he's coming. Back all the

216
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 2: guys that are under, contract the veterans said they're coming

217
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 2: back and their exit. Now McDonald also, said, sure that can.

218
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 2: Change and if you're To Marcus lawrence and you're back

219
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 2: home right, now or you're on a beat somewhere and

220
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 2: believes or to ye Here, mexico that's a bad example

221
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 2: that you you may not be too keen on a

222
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 2: ramping it back up again right because you've already read

223
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,839
Speaker 2: what else is there left for him To he's made

224
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty million, dollars he's won a Super

225
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 2: bowl that he had never won. Before the whole reason

226
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 2: he said he signed With. Seattle but having said, That,

227
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 2: dick as we, Know hugh knows this better than any of.

228
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 2: Us these guys are uniquely competitive and they're getting told

229
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 2: now that they can't do it a second. Time people

230
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 2: don't win The Super bowl back to back except by rare,

231
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 2: exception and you can't do it. Again and as De

232
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 2: Marcus lawrence fueled by that is the brotherhood that they

233
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 2: were so talting is the reason that they got WHAT

234
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 2: i got this past season and winning at, all the

235
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 2: brotherhood challenged to do it. Again and is that enough

236
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 2: to get everybody rapped up and off the beach and

237
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 2: back into the offseason? Workouts it'll start In. April that's

238
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 2: the ultra competitive nature of a professional athlete that you

239
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 2: AND i can't. Comprehend it's hard to put an estimation on.

240
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 2: That so my got failing is That lawrence will come.

241
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 2: BACK i could see every reason why he wouldn't want,

242
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 2: To but he's in the second year of a three year,

243
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 2: deal which was somewhat notable when he signed at thirty

244
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 2: three for three year.

245
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 3: Contracts Greg let's imagine a timeline of where these contracts

246
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 3: are going to get.

247
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 2: Done.

248
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 3: Uh where do you SEE jsn on that? Timeline and

249
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 3: have you been given any any indication that The seahawks

250
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 3: aren't one hundred percent uh willing to pay you, know

251
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 3: PAY jsn ultimately what what they're going to have to pay.

252
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 3: THEM i, mean there's no there's no thought of moving

253
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 3: on FROM. Jsn it just sounds absurd coming out of my.

254
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 3: Mouth BUT i think that there's a small faction Of

255
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 3: seahawks fans hey, Wonder, hey is it is it really worth?

256
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 3: It would you be better off drating them for two

257
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 3: first or what have? You but where DOES jsn fit

258
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 3: on the timeline and how of these signings and how

259
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 3: does it impact some of these other. Contracts, well.

260
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 2: Actually in the, Combine i'm talking to team people around

261
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 2: the league and with the. Team i'll tell you THAT

262
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 2: i got the opposite impression that, then of they might

263
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 2: not move they might move on from. THEM i got the,

264
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 2: opposite the opposite of being they're going to resign them

265
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 2: and it's gonna be this. Summer John schneider, said we

266
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 2: don't consider the fifty year, option an option he rarely

267
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 2: uses on first round, picks so he does consider this

268
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 2: to be the contract end of contract years FOR jsn

269
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 2: and For. Witherspoon and typically there's foundation. Players they get

270
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 2: their deals in the, summer right right before or right

271
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 2: after the started training, camp so they on the and

272
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 2: they're in the back of the line as far as

273
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 2: after they go For walker And rashid Chi he And

274
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 2: wooloan and what they decide to do With Kobe bryant

275
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 2: and Boy. Mafe then they go get plug in free.

276
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 2: AGENTS i think defense of an offensive line depth AS i,

277
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 2: said perhaps a running back to Pegam milwauker, situation or

278
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 2: even including. It and then they get to the summer

279
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 2: and we'll go TO jsn And. Witherspoon they've budget already

280
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 2: how much is gonna play and it could be a

281
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 2: two hundred million dollar. Contract we're talking too for the

282
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 2: offensive player of the year At smith And Jigbub but

283
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 2: it's not surprising them coming up at the end of their,

284
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 2: contract aytew this and they've had it. Budgeted those two

310
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 2: mean if they had said before they Signed, donald we're

311
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 2: signing a quarterback that's going to win The Super bowl this,

312
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 2: year they would have paid a lot more than three, years.

313
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 3: Right.

314
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: Especially especially one that literally won the game to get

315
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 1: them to the Super bowl.

316
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 2: Exactly They So snyder would love to be every every

317
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 2: day of this contract he can under the because he's

318
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 2: already outperformed. It so BUT i think They donald will

319
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 2: be next, Year smith And jiggba for The Big bucks

320
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 2: on track going into training camp for twenty twenty. Seven

321
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 2: gotcha a.

322
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 3: Couple more minutes With Greg.

323
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: Bell.

324
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 3: Greg there's a report that came out that THE nfl

325
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 3: there's a report card with all the players taking this

326
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 3: survey and theme.

327
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 2: UP i certainly would.

328
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 3: HAVE i think a lot of my teammates would have,

329
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 3: too you, know you, know just sign of the, times.

330
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 3: Right but But seattle earned AN a, plus a or

331
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 3: a minus in fourteen of the seventeen, categories, right including,

332
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:37,719
Speaker 3: ownership head Coach John, schneider the, nutritionists and offensive coordinator

333
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,159
Speaker 3: a YadA, YadA all the the one one of.

334
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 2: Aiden like? That, yeah, yeah how about?

335
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 3: That so the the field, surface AND i think that

336
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 3: was common with many others with the with the with

337
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 3: the turf got AN f for loom and. Field so

338
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,120
Speaker 3: that that was. Ad but you know that that may

339
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 3: not be. Fixable but but what my my my question

340
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 3: is is that a source of pride for the the

341
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 3: principles involved With seahawks that they can have that is

342
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 3: that something that they they strive to get these kind of.

343
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 3: Grades do you think it has an?

344
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 2: Impact? What? What? What? What? What? What?

345
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 3: What do you think The seahawks make of that that?

346
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 2: Report, yeah they absolutely pay attention to. It i'm Talking

347
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 2: Jody allen on down Through John, Schneider mike. McDonald it's

348
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 2: a big. Deal it's a street. Cred it's one of

349
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 2: those few publicly verifiable street cred uh measures there are

350
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 2: to pull the curtain back on. Organizations and it is

351
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: the perception and reality thing that free agents do pay attention.

352
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 2: To because the free agents that signed with The seahawks

353
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 2: or any other team are the ones who voted on

354
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 2: that survey just a couple of weeks or a couple

355
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 2: of months, ago in Mid. DECEMBER i will say a

356
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 2: couple of things on. That, first hats off To Caitlin,

357
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 2: keyler THE espn report reporter who obtained and then publicized

358
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 2: what the arbors said the NFL pa could not, publicize

359
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 2: and so the NFL pa, says all, right we'll just

360
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 2: hand it to her and she can put it out for,

361
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 2: us which is still by the letter of the arbiters. Ruling,

362
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,919
Speaker 2: okay the field issue is to me fixable because this

363
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 2: year there will be, grass, yeah and worlding field for

364
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 2: the for The World. Cup this to me is a

365
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 2: a make your mark issue for the new owners that

366
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 2: come in by The. Seahawks you're not going to change

367
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 2: the football. Operation you'd be absolutely stupid To you're not

368
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 2: going to change the culture That mike McDonald And John

369
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 2: schneider have. Said so what can you change that actually

370
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 2: matters to? Players, well let's look at the. Report, oh

371
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 2: the field is an F by the, way this is

372
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 2: a latent. Vote this was the first time of the

373
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 2: four years that the survey has been existence that they

374
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 2: they had home field surface as a. Category so there

375
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 2: have Been seahawks that have been around a few days

376
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: THAT i can even feel THAT i can tak up

377
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 2: on my, head BUT i won't who have been complaining

378
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 2: about this field for a long. Time players a hate.

379
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,400
Speaker 2: TURF i don't care what THE nfl says about their

380
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 2: propaganda with studies that say in real grass and turf

381
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: are equal in. Injuries, no players hate. Turf they can't

382
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 2: walk after playing on it for days and. Days they

383
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 2: much prefer. Grass there's fifteen or thirty teams that play on,

384
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 2: grass and when The seahawks play on Grass it's like

385
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 2: they're telling them they get to go To hawaii for the.

386
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 2: Week they think it's a vacation compared to what they

387
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 2: usually have to play on the Sew. Siaks owners can fix.

388
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 2: This they can either keep THEIR fifa grass field from

389
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 2: this year or come up with a different, solution but

390
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 2: they don't have to go back to what it currently.

391
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 2: Is of, course we know why it's currently this way

392
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 2: is BECAUSE nfl owners don't want. To the reason why

393
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 2: they're billionaires is they make money and they don't spend.

394
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 2: Money they don't want to spend Their they like their,

395
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 2: revenue their their cost, advantage and the revenue share a

396
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 2: grass field cuts into that, well.

397
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 1: Because whether they whi two different. THINGS i, mean have

398
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: we seen the last game ever At luminfield with?

399
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 2: TURF i don't think, so but it's they. Should i'm

400
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 2: not sure that a new owner is going to want

401
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 2: to cut out revenue streams of A Taylor swift concert

402
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 2: and A morgan Wall in concert and a, motocross or

403
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 2: if they do have those concerts and a motocross replacing

404
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 2: the grass field every time they do. It the players

405
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 2: wanted it done. Yesterday they wish they could play on grass,

406
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 2: anytime and people, say, well it rains too much in a.

407
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 2: Climate they grow grass in the desert In Las vegas

408
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 2: And arizona on trays and roll them in greenhouses during

409
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 2: the week and then roll them in for the game

410
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,119
Speaker 2: and roll them back out. Again it's, doable but that

411
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 2: costs money and owners don't like to spend. Money they

412
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 2: like to make. Money so that's. Well see if you

413
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 2: want to if to, me if you want to get

414
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 2: on the players good side as a new, owner don't

00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 1: six range should be enough to convincecent potential suitors of

466
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 1: a day to. Pick coleman has the goods to thrive

467
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 1: as a lead runner runner in a backfield rotation anything

468
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: stick out to you about that scouting report FROM, espn

469
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: either that you agree with or.

470
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 3: Disagree, WELL i think the TERM i would, HAVE i

471
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 3: mean they kind of elude to his strengthen what have.

472
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 3: You BUT i think his his his contact, balance like

473
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 3: he he can take a, shot and you, know obviously

474
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 3: he's got a very unique frame for a running. BACK i, mean,

475
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 3: look We've i'm not, saying and we've never Seen maurice Stones,

476
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 3: drew you, know you, know and and if he if

477
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 3: he's five, Nine I'm kareem Abdul, jabbar so there there's

478
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 3: no way THAT i expect him to become a measure

479
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 3: five Nine, okay but that's. Okay you, Know there's been

480
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 3: a lot of great backs that have been uh, short

481
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 3: and and AND i think for him it, helps you,

482
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 3: KNOW i mean he's he's very thick and and again

483
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 3: HIS i think his balance is.

484
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 2: Elite UH.

485
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 3: I i don't know That i've seen a lot of

486
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 3: times where he created something that wasn't. There you, KNOW

487
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 3: i think he he's usually most of his his good,

488
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,360
Speaker 3: RUNS i think there was there's decent. BLOCKING i don't

489
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 3: know that he can just you, know he can just make,

490
00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 3: magic you, know like A Bijon. Robinson you know that

491
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,199
Speaker 3: the type of, guys the running backs that are worthy

492
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 3: of a first round draft.

493
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 2: PICK i.

494
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 3: DON'T i think there's a noticeable. DIFFERENCE i. DON'T i

495
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 3: don't think that he's at that. Level but but a

496
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 3: day TWO i think that that. Fits and and and

497
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 3: you know he's been he's been relatively, durable, right and So.

498
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 2: I'm excited to see.

499
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 3: It but but he's got he's got an extremely unique

500
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:24,879
Speaker 3: style of.

501
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: Running IF i presented you the scenario, THAT i don't

502
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 1: think this is going to, happen but it's not a

503
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: zero percent chance, either that The Seattle seahawks open the

504
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 1: twenty twenty sixth season With Jonah coleman as their lead

505
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 1: running back after being taken with their second. Pick how

506
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 1: good a situation would we be?

507
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 3: In, YEAH i wouldn't love.

508
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 2: THAT i.

509
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 3: DON'T i don't think he's In knines category as a

510
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 3: runner just handing the ball to see if you can get.

511
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 3: YARD i don't think he. Can he can CREATE i.

512
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 3: Don't he certainly doesn't have the speed the burst if

513
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 3: you're if you're running the outside zone, scheme you don't

514
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 3: have to be elite speed to make it. Go you

515
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 3: can you can be a cutback runner in, that but

516
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,159
Speaker 3: you're going to be more effective if you do have

517
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,120
Speaker 3: a burst because your first read as a running, back

518
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 3: you're reading that in my online. Scrimmage even if you

519
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 3: run it to the the o the open, side away

520
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 3: from the tight, end you're still trying to read the

521
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 3: end man on the line of scrimmage m l os

522
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 3: the defender and if you hook, him then that's a

523
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 3: that's a read to bounce the, ball that's a. Go

524
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 3: you've got to burst and get and you're taking that.

525
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 3: Outside so even though you call outside, ZONES i MEAN

526
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 3: I i had one of those in the the.

527
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 2: Forty nine er.

528
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,919
Speaker 3: GAME i broke down and, say THE nfl will forever

529
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 3: cast it as you, know the ball went off, guard you,

530
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 3: know because they in the play by play they say

531
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,479
Speaker 3: did it go off, guard, center off, tackle, wide and

532
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 3: what have. You and there was a number of plays

533
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 3: where THE nfl play by, play you, know from now

534
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 3: to the end of the, time we'll read That canine

535
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 3: took the ball over the. Middle but you watch the

536
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,160
Speaker 3: tape and you say that was outside. Zone he stretched

537
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 3: it and then he cut it, back and so that

538
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 3: cutback ability is there For, jonah but having the defense

539
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 3: have to flow with a little bit more vigor to

540
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 3: really be worried about the stretch play the ball getting,

541
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 3: outside it helps the outside zone. RUNNING i don't think

542
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 3: he has that kind of.

543
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 1: Burst when we Had Mike florio, on he talked about

544
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 1: the just the supply and demand at the running back,

545
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,679
Speaker 1: position and he, said you, know there are just more

546
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: good running backs than spots to use, them which is

547
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 1: one of the reasons that pushes the value of the

548
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: running backs. DOWN i don't know IF i agree with,

549
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: that because you, KNOW i took a look at all

550
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: the starters today in THE, nfl AND i only see

551
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: about fifteen guys THAT i look at and, say, yeah

552
00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: those are lock starting running back in THE. Nfl and there.

553
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 2: Are thirty two.

554
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: Teams so if they're only, fifteen let's say there's even

555
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: eighteen to twenty guys that are lock starting running backs

556
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 1: in THE, nfl and Certainly canine is one of. Them

557
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 1: that still leaves you with a third of the league

558
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: or more that doesn't have a lock starting running. Back

559
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: and so to, me it's like it seems like there's

560
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 1: almost there's about as many lock starting running backs in

561
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 1: THE nfl that there are lock starting quarterbacks and we always, say,

562
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 1: wow there's just not enough starting quarterbacks to go. Around

563
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: so would you agree With mike that there's a there's

564
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 1: a dearth of running back or there's a there's a

565
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 1: plenty of running backs in THE nfl that can just

566
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 1: fill in and be good.

567
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 3: Starters well, it you, know talk about the, margins, Right,

568
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 3: yeah there's there's plenty of running backs you can hand

569
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 3: the ball. To but but when you watch money not,

570
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 3: football Does Bejon robinson seem to do things that other

571
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 3: guys can't?

572
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 2: Do?

573
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 3: Absolutely, Now Derrick henry this is not the year to ask,

574
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 3: this but if we went back twelve months or twenty,

575
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 3: four Because Derek henry's what thirty one? Now but but

576
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 3: When Derrick henry was, rolling not not Just i'm talking

577
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 3: about just you, know a year or two ago With.

578
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 3: Baltimore yeah, yeah good, year this year, too, yeah good.

579
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 3: Six when you watch The, lions Does Jamiir?

580
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 2: Goobbs?

581
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 3: Yeah do you watch and you you, say, oh whoa

582
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 3: that he's doing things, that, uh that other guys can't.

583
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 3: Do so SO i think you have to pay for

584
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 3: that margin of. Greatness you, know when you you, know

585
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 3: as you start getting down the, line then you, say,

586
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 3: okay that that's. Nominal it's you know what he's providing his.

587
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 3: Nominal i'll agree on. That and you know you can

588
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 3: you can fall off the cliff. Fast we were talking

589
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 3: about some of the the the success stories with guy's

590
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 3: age twenty. Six but you know, what ask the cowboys

591
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 3: how they felt About Ezekiel elliott and how he fell,

592
00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 3: off you, know so so you know there's examples of

593
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 3: guys hitting after age twenty six Where canine's going to,

594
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 3: be and then there's an example of guys really falling.

595
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 3: Off but BUT i would say the special running backs are?

596
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 3: Special how much more you need to? Pay it seems

597
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 3: to me.

598
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 2: In a world where you're.

599
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 3: Living you, know you, know the difference between thirteen million

600
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 3: and eight, million that five million dollar difference goes longer

601
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 3: than the, difference you know between a thirty seven million

602
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 3: dollar receiver and a thirty two million dollar.

603
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 1: Receiver, well and you mentioned the three of, them and

604
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,000

605
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: know if he's going to be special any. More christian

606
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: McCaffrey certainly has been. Special so there's just a there's

607
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: a small. Handful.

608
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 3: Well christian McCaffrey is unique because he's he has wide

609
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 3: receivers skill trade so when so when you, know and

610
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 3: he's been. Great his ability to run an option route

611
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 3: and you, know run a few routes out of the

612
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 3: backfield has has made him more.
