1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:02,719 Speaker 1: To be able to take it to that next level. 2 00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 1: That's what I'm excited about. Bill's bastard with the sack 3 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,320 Speaker 1: back at the twenty five yard line, touchdown, your standing 4 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: rock and roll, Tremont Smith, Coast to coast. There is 5 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: no off season for your Houston Texans. Game day is 6 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:34,319 Speaker 1: every day. No, it's Texans all excess, right because they 7 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 1: want to take it to the next level. They've got 8 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: draft capital, they've added to the equation, and an ordeal 9 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: that took way too long, that took way too long, 10 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,560 Speaker 1: that took fourteen months plus is over as of this 11 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: weekend as Deshaun Watson is being traded to the Cleveland Browns. 12 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: Good evening, everyone, It's Texans All Access. We're live, Mark 13 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: Vandamir and John Harris with you. We'll talk about with 14 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: the Texans have reportedly gotten because it's all reports, by 15 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: the way, and we'll talk about what they can do 16 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: with those picks and assets and what they can convert 17 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 1: them to and how Nick Assirio can utilize them. Also 18 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: talk about what Cleveland did swooping in at the last moment. Really, 19 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: from one moment to the next, everyone assumed Atlanta twenty 20 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: four hours ago. There was a blue check mark reporter. 21 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: I'll put that in the air quotes out of Atlanta 22 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: swearing up and dancing. He would delete his account if 23 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: he was wrong. I haven't checked this, see if he 24 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: has deleted it. But he said he was going to Atlanta. 25 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: Is it deleted? Have you checked? Good job? And I 26 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: actually somebody told me not with the Texans, but somebody 27 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: with another connection told me was definitely going to be 28 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: New Orleans, Johnny. So there it is, and people, and 29 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: I want to start here. I don't know where you 30 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: want to start, but I want to start here as 31 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: far as the compensation, the reported compensation goes. You know, 32 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: it's funny because people assume that what they read is correct. Right, Well, 33 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: Carolina was offering this this, and how do you know? 34 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: How really, how do you know? But where'd you get 35 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: that from? Because Carolina certainly doesn't want that out there. 36 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 1: You know, Carolina is not going to publicize that. And 37 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: I don't even know if the Watson people would publicize that. 38 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: How do you know what the offers are? Right? Exactly? 39 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: I saw some really attractive ones. In fact, Johnny, I 40 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: don't know about you, but some of the some of 41 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: the transactional material being thrown out there from these teams 42 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: that wanted him. I thought was it was getting a 43 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: little high, but I was perfectly happy to take it 44 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: based on the fact that I thought the market was 45 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,839 Speaker 1: what it was. The market is what it is. It's 46 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 1: three ones plus plus, right, and that's basically what they got, 47 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: and I would have been happy with that before the 48 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 1: trade deadline. You know, people were asking it all the time, 49 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,959 Speaker 1: what would you think. I look, I want three ones 50 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: plus something else, you know, could be, you know, some 51 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: great lawn furniture. I want three ones. They got three 52 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: ones now. The one this year is a thirteen. The 53 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: one next year we don't know because the suspension is 54 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: coming at some point. We don't know how long it's 55 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: going to be, and it's going to affect them. It's 56 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: not like Baker Mayfield's gonna be the backup in Cleveland. 57 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: And even if he was, are you ready to put 58 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: your money down on them to win all those games 59 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: in that division? Particularly so we'll see. I'm glad it's over. 60 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: I'm ready to move on. And that's my opening ramble, 61 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: my friend. I mean, if you want me to be 62 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: brutally honest about things, I'm ready for pick thirteen. I'm 63 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: ready for first in twenty twenty three, It's on to 64 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: pick thirteen. Yeah, Mark, I can't. I can't say this 65 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: or stress this enough. As you just said, I'm glad 66 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: it's over and it's time to move on. I can't 67 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: tell you the number of times, and I mean you 68 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: just you think about discussions, and you always think about 69 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: whether it's with your wife or with friends or family 70 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: or whatever. Well you remember when that happened, Well that 71 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: led to this, led to this. Let listen, we can 72 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: go back and rehash it. Everybody knows how we got 73 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: to this point. Everybody knows how complicated this was. And 74 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: it got done, and you got the three first round picks, 75 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: and then you got some additional beyond that. The key 76 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: to me was getting the assets because with the asset, 77 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,720 Speaker 1: you then can work with that asset even more. Because 78 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: you're not gonna be you're not gonna be given the 79 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: number thirteen pick, the number number thirteen overall pick in 80 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: the draft, and then be told their conditions on it. 81 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: Oh yes, sorry, that number thirteen pick has a no 82 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: trade clause and has a legal situation that is going 83 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: to take over a year to figure out. No, you 84 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 1: have the number thirteen pick. You could do what you want. 85 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: You could trade it to what I would do, Trade 86 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: it down, trade it to the Chargers charges you want. 87 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis, come on up here, we got a deal 88 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: for you. You add another third round pick, maybe you 89 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: add a second round pick next year. From that particular deal, 90 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: you have the assets in hand that you now can 91 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: do even more with. Now, if you want to quibble 92 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: with how much you got back, well it was it 93 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: should have been three first because I heard this, I 94 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: heard listen. Nobody has any clue. Nobody has any clue 95 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: with the actual offers as you said, were what they 96 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: were in reality were. Nobody's gonna know. We have no idea. 97 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 1: What we do know is that the Shan signing a 98 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: big deal in Cleveland. That's Cleveland's issue. What the Texans 99 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: got back in return, as that has been reported, three 100 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 1: first round picks number thirteen this year, and then first 101 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: round picks in twenty three and twenty four, in addition 102 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: to a third round pick in twenty three and a 103 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: fourth round pick in twenty four. Now, what Nick Kissio 104 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:07,799 Speaker 1: does with those five draft assets can turn this franchise 105 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: completely around. Last year, you could argue you went five 106 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: for five relatively speaking where they were drafting and what 107 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: they brought in as far as value goes. I don't 108 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: know how many picks they end up making this year. 109 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's ten, it's twelve. I mean 110 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: they're sitting right nine at think nine at one. I 111 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: think it's ten picks right now. My gut tells me 112 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: that one of them will come down. And that's really 113 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: in all honestly, Mark, That's really where I want to 114 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: talk about, is now taking the assets you have and 115 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: turning them into players. You have number three, We've been 116 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: talking about number three. You now have number thirteen. That 117 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: was not something we were talking about. So what do 118 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: you do with thirteen? Trade it down, you move around, 119 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: you stay at thirteen? What players make sense? I obviously 120 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: can't talk about twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four. Well, 121 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 1: we've got that additional first round pick that could turn 122 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 1: into another lower first round pick, but then some other 123 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: picks to go along with it. There's a lot that 124 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: can happen because the Texas now have that number thirteen 125 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: overall asset this year, and they've got the additional picks 126 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: in the following two years. You have to rebuild this 127 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: whole thing with elite top fifty and top one hundred talent, 128 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: and the Texans are not going to have that for 129 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: the next three years. It's not something they had for 130 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: the last three or four or five years. They now 131 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: have it, and now it's time to turn it around 132 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: and build it on a solid foundation moving forward. Yes, 133 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: there's no DeShawn Watson, sorry, Larry, And that's the way 134 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: it goes. It's business. It was complicated. Everybody moves on, 135 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: and now it's time to take these assets, turn this 136 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: Texans organization mark back into what we wanted it to 137 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: be in eleven and twelve and what it was in 138 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: eighteen and nineteen. But to do it for longer, do 139 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: it for a decade, do it for a decade and 140 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: more by building it with elite talent. He didn't want 141 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: to be here, That's the thing. People forget that, Okay, 142 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: he did not want to be here so badly that 143 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: it was willing to sit for an entire year. Right, So, 144 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously that was a huge deal. Here's the 145 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: other thing. There's twenty two lawsuits out there. There's still 146 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: a very serious situation. I know, we tend to talk 147 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: about the football only part of it so much, and 148 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: that's really what we should be doing on this show. 149 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: But I cannot help. I cannot let go of that. 150 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: I can't let go of that aspect of it. And 151 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: that's why I was on pins and needles. Please make 152 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: this deal go through, right, because you don't know what's 153 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: on the other end of the lawsuits once everything comes out. 154 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: It's been remarkably quiet from the Buzzby camp after the 155 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: deposition earlier this week. I thought we were gonna I 156 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: thought that whole thing was gonna be laid out there 157 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: in front of the world and that might affect this deal. 158 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: I didn't know that, but obviously it's a very important thing. 159 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: You know, you have these women who are accusing them 160 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: of this, and you know I'm not here to play judge, 161 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: jury and executioner, but that's still such a huge part 162 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: this whole equation. And look, you think Cleveland is are 163 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 1: they throwing a parade? Some people are very happy about 164 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 1: getting a quarterback. I get that, but a lot if 165 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: you look at their Twitter verse, it's filled with Bill 166 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: Cosby photos, shops on Deshaun Watson's body and stuff like 167 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: that they're dealing with that right now. They just paid 168 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 1: a ton a record amount for this quarterback, and it's 169 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: the largest trade in the National Football League since Herschel Walker, right, 170 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: it's the only other trade where three ones were involved. 171 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: So there's all that to deal with. And you know, 172 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: you're still gonna be hearing about these lawsuits and these 173 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: depositions and however they decide to resolve this. I know 174 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: there's enough money to make settlements, but not everybody wanted 175 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 1: to settle before the trade deadline, as you all remember, 176 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: So that's still a massive part of this whole equation 177 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: here should not be ignored. And I think that, you know, 178 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: we have to take these women's feelings into consideration when 179 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: we talk about this stuff. But I know it's a 180 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: football show and we're talking about the deal that was done. 181 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: I'm just glad the franchise can move on. I know 182 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: that there are far more serious things from you know, 183 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: for everybody to move on from in regard to the 184 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: accusations and allegations in those civil suits. But you know, 185 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: here we are. It is March eighteenth, it's six to 186 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: eleventh Central time, and the Texans are done with this 187 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 1: ordeal for the most part. And uh, and we'll get 188 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: the trade assets and we'll move on to play some 189 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: football and take this franchise back to where it needs 190 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: to get to in the postseason and beyond. Mark, you 191 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: brought up a tremendous point, and I think it can 192 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: simply be said, Cleveland, the Browns organization now is going 193 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: to deal with that situation that is no longer the 194 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: Texans situation. It doesn't mean at all that we you 195 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: and I in particular, because we're the ones on the air, 196 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: don't have empathy for anybody involved on the other side. 197 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: That's that has been part of the lawsuits or anything. 198 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: We have empathy for those people. From a football standpoint. 199 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: The Texans are clear of this situation and it is 200 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: time to move on for everybody involved. I mean, obviously 201 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna spend this hour talking about you know what 202 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: is going on, but you know me, it's about the draft. 203 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: And you get number thirteen overall, what does that mean? 204 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: Does that mean you can draft big old Jordan Davis 205 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: from Georgia? Heck yet, does it? Absolutely does? I mean 206 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: could you walk out? You could walk out of that 207 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: draft and you could get Trayvon Walker at number three. Potentially, 208 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: maybe you get Ron Walker at thirteen. I don't know, 209 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: it depends on whether he cools off before the draft. 210 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: You could get big old Jordan Davis and number thirteen. 211 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: You could trade down with the Chargers at number seventeen 212 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: to pick up another third rounder where I don't know, 213 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 1: maybe you pick up Zia mccollumn from out of same 214 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: Houston state to play corner. These are the things Mark, 215 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 1: that I've been sitting on my computer all day doing. 216 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: I have been working. I've been doing myself, Like, Okay, 217 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: look at a trad what can I trade? How can 218 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: I trade? Go? Okay, if I trade set, If I 219 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: trade thirteen to seventeen, then I get seventeen and seventy nine. 220 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: All right. What if I went from seventeen down to 221 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: twenty three with Arizona, Well, no, I can't do that 222 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 1: because Arizona's have a third round pick. So what if 223 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: I did it with Dallas? Okay, they got a third 224 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: round pick. Let's do that. So all of a sudden, 225 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: I turned thirteen into twenty four seventy nine, and I 226 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: think like eighty three, like, because you have that asset 227 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 1: of number thirteen overall now and you'll have two other 228 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: first round assets in the future. Now you can see 229 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: Nick moving up and down boards and doing some things 230 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: that get me pretty excited, especially based on how Nick 231 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 1: and his staff drafted last year. Well, the other positive 232 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 1: thing here, and it has to be mentioned, is that 233 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: you don't have to draft a quarterback. You don't need 234 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: to draft one, especially high. You don't need to take one. 235 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: If you didn't like Mills, if Mills didn't come around 236 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 1: after sitting and watching Tyrod Taylor and then really the 237 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: improving down the stretch, well you might sit here saying, 238 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: all right, who's it gonna be. Is it gonna be 239 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 1: Breake It? Is it gonna be Willison? Is it gonna 240 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: be one of these guys? Gotta go get one either 241 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: at three at thirteen. We'd have that debate going on 242 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: between now and the draft. And by the train, by 243 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:14,959 Speaker 1: the way, the draft feels like it's coming up in 244 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 1: about fifteen minutes. I mean it's already March eighteen. Time 245 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 1: is flu this offseason is over, It's it's time for 246 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: training camp, it's all the market, it's the time time. 247 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: So is this the time where I make them the plea? 248 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if the plea is the right word. 249 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: But you know the Harris one hundred, where you can 250 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: find out all about draft picks that potentially Texans could 251 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: make it number thirteen.

Kyle Hamilton notre dame number one, 264 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: but it is.

You could drop down from three add on, 271 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: you could drop down from thirteen add on, you could 272 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. There's so many different possibilities there. Just 273 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: stay put in draft great players. You have basically two 274 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: lottery picks here coming up in this draft. And that's 275 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: what that really jumped out to me football wise when 276 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: I got the news today, though, all right, you have 277 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: thirteen and three. That's really good and that's what matters 278 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: immediate help. Right. Yes, Now people are well, you didn't 279 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: get players, you didn't get this. Remember it's the second 280 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: largest or I don't know, there are only two trades 281 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: in the history of this league that have all three 282 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: number one picks. And I thought all along, Johnny, I 283 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: would take three ones and anything just to get out 284 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: from under it and move on with your life. Right, 285 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: And they got more than anything, and I think they'll 286 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: be okay. Now, look with the Carolina Panthers, all those 287 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: rumors Jeremy Chin and who else, Brian Burns and three. 288 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know for sure, but I guarantee 289 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: you that was never gonna happen. That was never gonna 290 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: There's no way Carolina's coming through the door with that offer. 291 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: Come on, people, don't People who believe everything they read 292 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: as if it's the gospel. Right, Well, people say stuff 293 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: as if it's true. But it's a report and they 294 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: got from a source. You know who's talking more this 295 00:15:56,280 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: week than anybody else, an NFL source. NFL horse guy 296 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: is a blabbermouth and he won't shut Yeah, well, take everybody, Johnny, 297 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: go ahead. I was everybody's sources. Everybody's sources are saying 298 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: it's gonna be Atlanta. It's gonna be Atlanta. So it's 299 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: definitely Carolina. At first, it was definitely Carolina, and it 300 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: has to be Carolina. And then people looking at him 301 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: from the wrong perspective because that's the most attractive option 302 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: for the Texans, that's the most attractive team for them 303 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: to deal with. I'm like, that's not what it's about. 304 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: You understand what this no trade clause is. He's got 305 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: control here as to where he's gonna go. So once 306 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: that was off the tip, well, it's definitely in Atlanta, right, Well, 307 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: it's gonna be the Saints. It's gotta be Atlanta. We 308 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: went through all that, and then today Cleveland's like, hold 309 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: my beer because there is more money than you ever 310 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: imagined going into this deal right here, and it's guaranteed. 311 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: WHOA Well, I think that this is the US reaction 312 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: to a quarterback contract since and it's a much smaller deal. 313 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: But the Kirk Cousins three years guaranteed from the Vikings 314 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: really raised a lot of eyebrows a few years ago 315 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: when he got that, and they thought, wait a minute, 316 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: you're one hundred percent guaranteeing a contract here, Yes they were. 317 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: Did it work out for them while they want to 318 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: playoff game in New Orleans? Gee? That guaranteed. That's what 319 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,959 Speaker 1: gets everybody is guaranteed for some reason. The NBA guarantee 320 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: is like, okay, fine, But when you guarantee, especially a 321 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 1: contract even I mean kirk Cousins was what three years 322 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: eighty four million, and the Browns just guarantee two hundred 323 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 1: and thirty million. I mean look, I mean we saw 324 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: what Shan Watson could do and what he can be. 325 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: He had a whole year off. Don't know how much 326 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a suspension, so we don't know that. 327 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 1: I would imagine knowing him, we're gonna he's gonna get 328 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: back to a pretty high level. But my goodness, what 329 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: if it doesn't. I mean, it's a it's a pretty 330 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 1: that's a pretty tall task. But either way, that's Cleveland's issue, 331 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: in Cleveland's opportunity to work out. But going back to 332 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,479 Speaker 1: your point about sources and people are talking reports and 333 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 1: trades and all that kind of stuff. I listened to 334 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: John and Landry a lot. I am an unabashed loophole 335 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: and I listened to them, and when people would talk 336 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 1: about trades, Figgy would play the Madden the little Madden clip. 337 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: It's in the game, you know, because those are the 338 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: things you create on that that's a trade you create 339 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 1: on Madden, you know. So every time everybody called him 340 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: one of the trade, that was what they came up with, 341 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: and it always turns out to be in reality, something 342 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: you didn't see coming. That's why the Hershel Walker trade 343 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: is such an outlier because nobody had ever made a 344 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: trade like that, and then Jimmy Johnson was able to 345 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 1: take advantage of a loophole in that trade that nobody 346 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 1: really ever talks about, which again is going back in 347 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: John Landry. Nobody talking about guy. The Cowboys got a 348 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: bunch of players back. But the trade was if we 349 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: don't get these players, or something happens to these players, 350 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: then we get picks in their place. So Jimmy got 351 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 1: them all and then cut them and that gave them 352 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: all the picks. Things are done differently nowadays. I mean, 353 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 1: that was what almost you know over thirty years ago. 354 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: But it just is it's strange to look back at 355 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,159 Speaker 1: and see that this trade today is compared to that 356 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: one because it's the only trade, like you said, with 357 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 1: three first one first rounders involved in it. I love 358 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: talking about the draft. I love talking about trades. Um. 359 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: I love that sort of thing. I love looking and 360 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 1: thinking about all these different reports. They're great. But the 361 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: reality of it is, most of the time that what 362 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: you see out on Twitter, you better take it at 363 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: a discount. And by the way, can I tell you 364 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: how many times back at the trade deadline that I 365 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 1: heard from numerous people, Oh, it's done. Oh it's done. Here, here, 366 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: here are there, here's the trades going to Miami. It's 367 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: it's all done. It's all taking care of um. Oh yeah, 368 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 1: lock it away, seal it away, it's all taken. I mean, really, well, 369 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 1: that didn't come to me. I said I would believe 370 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: it when I saw it, And when it popped across 371 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: my phone today and I realized that it was a 372 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: D A M S C H E F T E 373 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 1: R and not ad Narn or Shyster or anything. And 374 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: it was actually from Adam Schefter that he was picking 375 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:29,479 Speaker 1: the browns. Yeah, I was like wow, okay, and then 376 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: we saw trade. It's mind blowing to see it, Like wow, 377 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: because Robert who's producing for us, texted earlier and said, 378 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: you guys going live tonight. Yeah, we're going live tonight. 379 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what we'll talk about because you know, 380 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 1: the Watson trade won't happen until over the weekend. And 381 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: the way you go, because they gotta the land has 382 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: got to find a spot for Ryan. And then not 383 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: only two hours later it is trades made. Here we go, 384 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 1: He's going to Cleveland. Like, wait, does that say Cleveland? 385 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,880 Speaker 1: That doesn't say clue Eveland? Does it cleanly? He told 386 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: Cleveland No. So at that point, you know, persistence, I guess, 387 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: but Johnny play, I don't know. So I got my 388 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: wife persistent. She told me to like five times, and 389 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: I just kept at it. I kept at it and 390 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: I eventually got married. M Yeah, and I saw one 391 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: tweet I want to be careful with this. But well, 392 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: considering the amount of money that Cleveland gave him, you 393 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: should have gotten more out of them. Hang on a second. 394 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: This Remember what happened here. You got everyone's proposal before 395 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: they could get into the room, which was the smart 396 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: thing to do, right. You don't start negotiating after they 397 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: talk to him, because then there's no market. Right at 398 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: that point, the leverage is completely gone. But you're not 399 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: renegotiating based on the amount of money. Oh, since you're 400 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: gonna offer two hundred and thirty million, guarantee that'll be 401 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: another couple of twos or whatever. You cannot add side 402 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: dishes to the meal at that point, right, I would 403 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 1: imagine there was some two week ability my word to 404 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: these proposals based on all right, now we're in real time. 405 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 1: We're gonna make this deal. Would this due instead of that? Okay? Good? 406 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: Or go with whatever you proposed originally? You know, they 407 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: maybe they can make some subs, right, some subs off 408 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: the menu. And speaking of menu, here it is here. 409 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: You know me, I'm always searching for the analogy, the metaphor. 410 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 1: Here it is. You're at a steakhouse, all right, this 411 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: deal is going into the steakhouse. I need three ones. 412 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: That's my steak. That's my steak. I can't have two. 413 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: I gotta have three because that's my steak. And it's 414 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: gonna be prepared medium, just the way I like it, 415 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: all right. And I get a little bit of oscar 416 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: topping on there. That's nice too. People are complaining about 417 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: some of the side dishes. I understand. I understand, all right, 418 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 1: you wanted the garlic mashed potatoes. You don't like the asparagus. 419 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: You didn't want regular steak fries. You want to sweet 420 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: potato fries. Who would you have at the steakhouse? But 421 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,640 Speaker 1: I don't, but some people anyway, So there's some disagreement 422 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,239 Speaker 1: here about the value of the side dishes or if 423 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: you've got enough. You got the steak. You got the steak. 424 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: That's the most important thing. We can quibble about the 425 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,160 Speaker 1: other stuff. I'm gonna eat my mouth watering steak. I'm 426 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: gonna go through these drafts. Nick is gonna build the 427 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: team and we're gonna go from there. That's how we're 428 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: rolling here, right. I don't have disagree with you. I 429 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: mean I've I've had people text me saying, yeah, of 430 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: course I'm okay with that, you know, I'm okay with that, 431 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: although you better not screw up the lobster mac that 432 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: we usually get with our side. So um, but I 433 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: don't all I mean getting the three ones back was 434 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: getting the three ones back was big. That was that 435 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 1: that had to be part of it. Obviously, um, I 436 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: should say obviously nothing seems obvious in this situation, but 437 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: it felt like that was kind of the minimum that 438 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 1: was that was gonna happen, was getting three first back. 439 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: I didn't know when the teams were brought up. You know, 440 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: Carolina had number six and so overall this year, so 441 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: that sounded attractive. Atlanta was number eight, that's was very attractive. 442 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: Eighteen was New Orleans. You're like, I don't know, but 443 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 1: New Orleans had second and third round picked this year, 444 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: and then you had Cleveland kind of sitting right in 445 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 1: the middle of thirteen. And when Cleveland got ruled out, 446 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: like all right, well you move on. But you ended 447 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 1: up getting a top fifteen pick along with the number 448 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: three that's y already have and you're gonna have those picks. 449 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 1: I mean, what happens if in one of the next 450 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 1: two years the Sean gets dinged up or you know, 451 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 1: this suspension goes for six games. When he comes back, 452 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: they can't find their footing. They end up you know 453 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 1: seven and ten, you know eight and nine, and you 454 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 1: know that pick is number thirteen or fourteen again, you 455 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 1: know what happens if the Sean gets hurted like it's 456 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: seventeen for us, you know, he gets hurt and all 457 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: of sudden we got number three. But you know we 458 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 1: gave number three to Cleveland to go get to Sean 459 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: in the first place, So you know what happens. Then 460 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're talking about man, we got 461 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: we got a fifth round pick in his Maybe Cleveland's 462 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl, maybe both years. You know we're picking 463 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 1: at number thirty two. Either way, those are picks we 464 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: didn't have before. And you can do something as long 465 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: as you have the asset in your hands that nickossary 466 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: and a staff dude, they have those three ones that 467 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: have the third, that have the fourth in their hands. 468 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: All right, couple of items on what you could possibly 469 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: get with pick number thirteen. We've talked about pick number 470 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: three a bunch, but what about pick number thirteen.

Texans reportedly, I'll still say that because 492 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: it's not officially announced by them yet reportedly sending to 493 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 1: Shawn Watson to Cleveland three number one draft choices, first 494 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: round draft choices, number one overall picks would be nice. 495 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: The stake of the deal, as we said, Watson reportedly 496 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: gets two hundred and thirty million guaranteed by the brands. Johnny, 497 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: did you see this that it's one million for next 498 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: year just in Casey gets suspended and he's not gonna 499 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,400 Speaker 1: lose much of the money. I don't know if that's 500 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: gonna hold up or not. I don't know if that 501 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: meets league approval. We'll see soon enough, but maybe it does, 502 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,439 Speaker 1: and that'll be something. Obviously, the very serious allegations are 503 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: still out there with him, with the twenty two lawsuits 504 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: he's facing, and these were attempted. There were attempts to 505 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: get these settled before the trade deadline, reportedly, and it 506 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: didn't happen because there were some holdouts. So we'll see 507 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: how that goes. If they're gonna be able to do 508 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: it now. Obviously there's a lot of money for him 509 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 1: to play with sometimes that will help, but obviously a 510 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: very serious situation. It's been very quiet from the Buzzby 511 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 1: camp through all this, which I find interesting, and I'm 512 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: just glad for the Houston Texans. They can get through it, 513 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: get past it a player who didn't want to be 514 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: with them anymore. Look, I know we had issues or whatever, obviously, 515 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: I Look, I don't want to rehash everything, especially not 516 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 1: until it's official, Johnny. But like we said from the 517 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: get go, it's good to have it done and you 518 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: move on and you get ready for twenty twenty two 519 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,360 Speaker 1: and you have two picks in the top thirteen. Well, 520 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: we did get a statement during the break from the 521 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 1: Tech We got the statement during a break. Here here's 522 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: a statement from general manager Nick Kisserio. Earlier today, we 523 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: agreed to trade to Shaun Watson to Cleveland Browns. I 524 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: felt it was the right move for the organization as 525 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: we head into the new league year, focused on building 526 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: our roster for the twenty twenty two season. Our priority 527 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: right now is adding talented players to the foundation we 528 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: have already put in place. Over the last fifteen months 529 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: in the trade supports that plan. As we navigate the 530 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: rest of the off season, we remain open minded to 531 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: all avenues that allow us to improve our roster and 532 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,959 Speaker 1: to add to our program. This is from cal McNair 533 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: the statement, I'm extremely proud of the way go ahead. 534 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: I'm extremely proud of the way Nikos Sarrio navigated us 535 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: through this challenging situation. He remained patient before ultimately making 536 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: a decision that's best for us in both the short 537 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 1: and long term. We're confident in our plan to build 538 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 1: a championship program that can sustain success in our entire organization. 539 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: He's excited to move forward together, all right. So it's 540 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: three firsts, a third next year, and a fourth the 541 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: year after that. They send a twenty twenty four fifth 542 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: to the Browns along with Watson, So it's three first, 543 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: a third of the fourth, and again you have the 544 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: thirteenth this year. We don't know what next years is 545 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: going to be. It's very possible that Watson doesn't play 546 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: the whole season for the Cleveland Browns because of a 547 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: suspension possibly, and then the following years we'll see where 548 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: it takes. The Cleveland Browns. But we have the Nick 549 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: Kissario quote. We just read to the Kelly McNair quote 550 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 1: and these two. Well, actually, Nick will have a press 551 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 1: conference soon enough, tomorrow, and we will have Nick on 552 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: as well. We'll have Nick on our video channels, all 553 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: our platforms, YouTube and Facebook and Twitter will go live. 554 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 1: Actually with that, we're not gonna go live. We'll go 555 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: live with the presser, so we'll have all the information 556 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: out there from the GM. He'll talk about the deal 557 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: some more and talk about the other acquisitions as well, 558 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: because obviously, as you know, they've been busy. I know 559 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: this is a huge story, but they've been busy acquiring 560 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: other players and resigning some players. And I think that 561 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: when you look at the draft, that's where this thing 562 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: is really going to shift. Being basically what five for 563 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: five last year and picks, I mean, that's a pretty 564 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: high batting average. I don't know if Garrett Walla is 565 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: going to turn out to be a pro bowler. We'll 566 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: see what. He showed some good signs as the season 567 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: went along, and the most important pick being Davis Mills 568 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: in the third ram who this year certainly would have 569 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: gone higher had he stayed at school. But you were 570 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: able to have him do a learning year, a learning 571 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: season behind Tyrod. Taylor played early, sat for a while, 572 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: played again, and played well down the stretch and very 573 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 1: well by some metrics. So you're looking forward to year 574 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 1: or two with him. So Johnny pick number thirdeen at three. 575 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: We know there's a lot out there. I guess we 576 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: have to wonder based on what the Jags need, based 577 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: on what everyone assumes Detroit is going to do with Hutchinson, 578 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: that Hamilton Hamilton will be available number three. Is he there, 579 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: Johnny and should he take him? If Hutchinson goes to 580 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: the Jags, which I believe is going to happen, Detroit 581 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: gets all kinds of interesting because somebody could be trading 582 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 1: up to go get one of those offensive linement thinking 583 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: the Texans might still be interested. Maybe maybe a lot 584 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: of moves from six to two, although they don't have 585 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 1: a ton of ammunition to be able to do that. 586 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: So that gets interesting with the Lions. I if I'm 587 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: the Lions, I take Hamilton at two. I absolutely do. 588 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: Now they just re up with Tracy Walker, but that's 589 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: not going to get in the way of you drafting 590 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilton. I would take Kyla Hamilton at three. You 591 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: know how I feel. I just don't know that he 592 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: is going to be there. I think my worst case 593 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: scenario ends up being Hutchinson Hamilton in whatever order, going 594 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: one and two, and then all of a sudden we're like, 595 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: oh dad, gumm it. I still think trade down now again, 596 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: trade down needs a partner. It does. I mean, you 597 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 1: can dance solo if you want, but it's not going 598 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: to help you with the number three pick. But if 599 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: you find a trade down partner, maybe one of the quarterbacks, 600 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: maybe Malik Willis, gets really really hot and a team 601 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: is like, we gotta have him. And that's why the 602 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: next week to ten days becomes interesting to see what 603 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: are the Seahawks to, what are the Colts do, what 604 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: do the how the forty nine ers kind of handle things? 605 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: And what Domino does, Jimmy Garoppol have maybe going somewhere 606 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 1: have on some other teams. So those are things, so 607 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: all kind of keep in mind of what could impact 608 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 1: number two and obviously number three if Hamilton's there at three. 609 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: Defensive playmaker, I mean, you just can't have enough of 610 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: defensive playmakers. And the thing is, oh, he's a safety. Yeah, 611 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: he's a safety. He's a nickel linebacker, he's a will linebacker. 612 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: U he can blitz off the edge. I mean, how 613 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: many different things do you want Kyle Hamilton to be 614 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: able to do as a quote unquote safety. He'll be 615 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 1: able to do them at number three. If you move down, 616 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: you move down. That's great. But I think I think 617 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,959 Speaker 1: Hutchinson Hamilton the two offensive linemen I don't think are 618 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: out of consideration because they both can play guard. You 619 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: go back to the fact that could they kind of 620 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: like Larry Tunsel did when he was in Miami. When 621 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: he got drafted by Miami, they had Brandon Albert i 622 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: left tackle, so they've stuck Laramie inside a guard for 623 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: a year. Albert then went and became a free agent. 624 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: I think after that Larry bump back up the left 625 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 1: tackle and that's how they went about doing it. Now 626 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 1: Larry ended up being drafted twelve or thirteen. You got 627 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: to balance out Evan Neil a QUANTU. I have them 628 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: rated that highly, so I would have no issue with 629 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: it because I think I could play him at guard 630 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: and then whatever happens with your tackle situation in the future, 631 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 1: they can bump out the tackle at that point I 632 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:25,919 Speaker 1: just think they're that go to football players. I don't 633 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 1: want to leave them out of the mix. And then 634 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 1: the one name that's been brought up a lot lately 635 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,280 Speaker 1: is Trayvon Walker, who is the defensive end from Georgia. 636 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: Two hundred and seventy two pounds, six foot five, long arms, 637 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:42,359 Speaker 1: runs in the four five range, A complete just bionic man, 638 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 1: just an athlete like you've never seen. I don't think 639 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 1: he's a polished edge rusher, but he has a violent 640 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 1: player out on the edge from football standpoint, plays the 641 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: run extremely well. I mean, he is physical. He would 642 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: definitely set a tone out on the edge. I don't 643 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 1: know he is twelve sacks a year, but then again, 644 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: I don't think he's also reached this potential. But that's 645 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: a name that's definitely been out there for the Texans. 646 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: Sitting at number three. Number thirteen gets interesting. Mark thirteen 647 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: gets really interesting because I think that's where some of 648 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: the corners, So they maybe come off the board and 649 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 1: if teams are trading up, they go maybe go get quarterbacks. 650 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: Maybe the corners come down. Maybe Sauce Gardner comes down, 651 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: maybe Stingley comes down. I love Trent McDuffie from Otta, Washington. 652 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: He's one, he's one of my favorite players to watch. 653 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,359 Speaker 1: Maybe they're all in play at thirteen, and also maybe 654 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis from Georgia is in play at thirteen. And 655 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: could you see a scenario where you have Trayvon Walker 656 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: and Jordan Davis, those two monsters coming from Georgia and 657 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 1: they're part of the Texans defensive line for the next 658 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: how many every years? Heck, yeah, I could see it. 659 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: It would be fantastic to watch those two physical beasts 660 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: joined this Texans defensive line. And then let's see Derrick 661 00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: Henry and company try and run on those guys consist 662 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 1: instantly over the next homny every years. So that's how 663 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: you get this thing built with elite talent. And you 664 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 1: have those two Georgia guys at three and thirteen, Man, 665 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:10,720 Speaker 1: you'd look really really good. Maybe at thirteen it's Derek Stingley. 666 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: Maybe Stingley falls to thirteen, and there you're sitting there 667 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: with a top three talent in the entire draft that 668 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 1: you get at thirteen because teams are passing on corners 669 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 1: or they're questioning Stingley. Man, you end up with him 670 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 1: at thirteen, Man, that would be awesome, But it's gonna 671 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 1: be fun to watch it all play out and see 672 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: how teams kind of navigate the draft and obviously how 673 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: Nick's gonna navigate it up and down. I really like 674 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 1: strengthening the middle of the defensive line. I love the 675 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: signing of Malik Collins. Pressure up the middle is so key. 676 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 1: We always talk about that with Andre how everyone talks 677 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,319 Speaker 1: about edge rushers and yeah, I get it, you're gonna 678 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: get sacks and strip sacks and it's very sexy and 679 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: all of that. But when you get pressure up the middle, 680 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 1: that's when the QB tends to end up in the 681 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 1: arms of a defensive end or outside linebacker pass rusher. 682 00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: Right when you get that punch up the middle, and 683 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 1: you having these two guys from Georgia, Trevon Walker and 684 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,760 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis, in the top ten of the Harris one hundred. 685 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: Quick question for you, is it more difficult or easier 686 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: to evaluate when you have terrific players playing around them 687 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: because the offense has to deal with so much when 688 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: they're trying to block these guys. Yeah, it's a it's 689 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 1: a great point, Mark, and I try and take all 690 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 1: that into consideration. I take it all into consideration. I mean, 691 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 1: I watch how many times teams trying double Jordan Davis 692 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 1: and how they're unsuccessful in doing it. I watched teams 693 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 1: against Trevon Walker, and I see all the different things 694 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,279 Speaker 1: Tremon Walker does, and then I realized, okay, yeah, the 695 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 1: one is he getting a one on one situation? When 696 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 1: is he getting doubled? How is he playing the role? 697 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 1: I try and keep the situations as much as I 698 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,919 Speaker 1: possibly can separate even though they're playing on the same line. 699 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,360 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you, I was watching them today against 700 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: Alabama SEC Championship game. I'm like, my, my goodness, trying 701 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 1: to run. Trying to run on them was just nearly impossible. 702 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:04,200 Speaker 1: In one of the keys, Jordan Davis said at his 703 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 1: pro day that he got down to like three forty 704 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 1: five three forty range. I think he's three forty one 705 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: to combine. That was fifteen to twenty pounds less than 706 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,760 Speaker 1: what he played in. He said, he's so much quicker 707 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 1: and faster, and he wants to stay he wants to 708 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 1: stay at his sleek three forty going forward. That's scary 709 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 1: to think about six six three forty sleek, agile and 710 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 1: mobile and faster than probably every other tight end on 711 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 1: the roster if he does end up with the Texans. 712 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 1: But it's tough to kind of evaluate, Like, Okay, is 713 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis getting all the attention here? But I look 714 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: for certain things with both of them. Man, they're good. 715 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,440 Speaker 1: And by the way, if Texas trade out at thirteen, 716 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 1: they moved down, they moved down. Defante, Whyatt is going 717 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 1: in the first round. Two He's the guy that played 718 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 1: in between those two other guys, and he's just as 719 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 1: good a football player as the other two. They're gonna 720 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 1: have three first rounders coming off that defensive line from Georgia. 721 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:02,240 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the recap. What happened today, 722 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,839 Speaker 1: how it affects things, how the Texans move forward, what's 723 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 1: going to happen with the Browns?

Texans Radio, the drive continues. It does, 737 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:57,760 Speaker 1: Mark Vandamarin John Harris with you Trade agreed to Houston 738 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: Texans getting three first routers and then some from the 739 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns for sending Deshaun Watson near Lake Erie as 740 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,440 Speaker 1: he gets a reported two hundred and thirty million dollars 741 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,880 Speaker 1: guaranteed contract. And we'll see how it plays out for 742 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns who have Amari Cooper on their team. 743 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 1: No more Jarvis Landry Os obviously, no more O b 744 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 1: J left during last year. I ended up with the Rams. 745 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,439 Speaker 1: We'll see how they put it together around him cap 746 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: wise and otherwise. Obviously it's something we're gonna be following. 747 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,720 Speaker 1: The Browns are coming into NRG Stadium this year, right, Johnny, 748 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 1: So that's a date to circle on the calendar when 749 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 1: the schedule comes out. Yeah, of course that's the next 750 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 1: and I don't know when. I can't remember when the 751 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,280 Speaker 1: schedules coming out last year came up after the draft. 752 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: I think it was the second week in May. It'll 753 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,919 Speaker 1: be after, so it'll be after. So I was gonna 754 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:50,920 Speaker 1: say that's the next event. But the draft is the 755 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:55,800 Speaker 1: next event. And then we'll get the schedule and everybody 756 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: will want to see it and see when that game 757 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 1: will take place, and I would imagine it'll be there'll 758 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: be a lot of eyes, not just in Houston and 759 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 1: Cleveland on that particular ballgame when it happens. Yeah, no question. 760 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,359 Speaker 1: I mean, you have Deshaun Watson and the Cleveland Browns 761 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 1: now he might be suspended when they come in, although 762 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 1: the league, if they have any kind of sense of drama, 763 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,080 Speaker 1: and they do, they might make it late enough in 764 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: the season. I don't know if the suspension will be 765 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: handed down by them then or not. I mean, this 766 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 1: is like crazy speculation right here. But the Browns are 767 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,719 Speaker 1: scheduled to come to NRG Stadium this year. Because the 768 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 1: Texans and Browns finished in the same slot in their divisions, 769 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: Houston does not play the AFC North this year. The 770 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 1: Browns obviously play the rest of the AFC North, so 771 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,280 Speaker 1: they'll have to deal with Baltimore and the AFC champion 772 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals, and we'll see how the Steelers handle their 773 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: business moving forward. But obviously always a tough out for 774 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: the Browns no matter what the situation is. Yeah, well, 775 00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 1: you do know who the Browns do play this year. 776 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 1: They care a line of Panthers, the Atlanta Falcons in 777 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:08,840 Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints NFC South this year, so that 778 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 1: could be interesting. Well, I'm glad you brought this up 779 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: because this week has been traumatic for many parties, right 780 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: in a football sense, not in a real life sense, 781 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: and maybe in a real life sense for the twenty 782 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,399 Speaker 1: two women who are filing the civil suits and made 783 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 1: the accusations and allegations. But again we're talking football context here. 784 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, what happens with him now? With the Atlanta Falcons, 785 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,839 Speaker 1: we already know Baker Mayfield, they were going back and forth, 786 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 1: really not and fourth just back they were. They were 787 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: not having it with each other this week, and I 788 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: guess once the Watson thing became this sort of uh, 789 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:55,440 Speaker 1: you know, passed over opportunity for them not really passed over, 790 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 1: but they were. They were passed over by the Watson 791 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: camp until they rallied with this huge today. The thought 792 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 1: was Mayfield would be welcomed back to Cleveland because he 793 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: has a year left on the deal, but he wanted 794 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 1: no part of it. And we'll see if he ends 795 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 1: up an Indie or not. What do the Falcons do 796 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 1: with Matt Ryan. I mean, everybody's sort of left holding 797 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: the bag here. I think the Saints come out of it. 798 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 1: I don't want to say the best because they're still 799 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 1: looking for a quarterback and reportedly Jamis Winston is in 800 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 1: play to go back there. But I think it's a 801 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: different situation than when you have an established starting quarterback. 802 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: And I'll call Mayfield established because the Browns have done 803 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: things with him that they've never done in their history 804 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,399 Speaker 1: since coming back into the league in nineteen ninety nine. 805 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 1: It's all very interesting, there's no question. And you know, 806 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,360 Speaker 1: obviously with the Browns having us on the schedule, of 807 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 1: those teams in the NFC South, you're gonna have Deshaun 808 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,360 Speaker 1: and Lamar twice a year. You're gonna have the Shawn 809 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 1: and Borrow twice a year. I mean, those boy, there's 810 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna be a lot of primetime games come 811 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 1: in Cleveland's way, and it's a it's a strong roster. 812 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any any question with that. And 813 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:11,840 Speaker 1: now it's the opportunity for Nick Kisserio and his staff 814 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 1: to turn this into a strong roster m maybe in 815 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 1: the same way, maybe not, we'll see, but it's it. 816 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: That part, the Deshaun Watson part, short though it was 817 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,879 Speaker 1: from twenty seventeen through twenty twenty one, is over. Moving 818 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 1: on to Cleveland, Texans, moving on, everybody seemingly has closure 819 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 1: other than like you said, from football. Since yes, obviously 820 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 1: there are there are some women in these lawsuits that 821 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 1: don't have that closure, and hopefully they're going to be 822 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:44,800 Speaker 1: able to get that closure what they deserve from a 823 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:49,279 Speaker 1: football sense. Closure. That's that's as simple as you could 824 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 1: say to Now we start looking forward to the draft 825 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 1: with Mark after what, do we have one first round 826 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 1: pick in like five years and now we got two 827 00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 1: coming up in a month or so. That's nice. Yeah, 828 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 1: I mean the first time, it's only the second time 829 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 1: in the last five years you have a first and 830 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 1: a second round raft choice, and you know, My closing 831 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 1: thought on this is you mentioned closure. Look, the whole 832 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 1: thing was terribly sad in a football context, right, I mean, 833 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,759 Speaker 1: you had this quarterback, he was awesome, You did some 834 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 1: really amazing things with him, and then ultimately the marriage 835 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 1: breaks up. It really was something that you never wanted 836 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 1: to see happen. It did happen, and then you know, 837 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 1: with the breakup announcement or the declaration of I want 838 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,440 Speaker 1: the breakup, then you get the lawsuits filed, and then 839 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,960 Speaker 1: your whole I don't know, belief of the whole thing 840 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 1: of what this really was. Maybe it changes, I mean 841 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 1: from a football sense, no, but it just got to 842 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 1: be so horrible and again in a football context, and 843 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 1: it's just so great to be able to move on. 844 00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: It really is, and it is sad, but it's also 845 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 1: you look to the future and you're happy about having 846 00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: these picks.
