I'm 22 00:01:30,108 --> 00:01:31,788 Speaker 1: trying to help the guy that's it. And then and 23 00:01:31,828 --> 00:01:33,788 Speaker 1: then Judo, I think, just kind of threw down on 24 00:01:33,828 --> 00:01:35,108 Speaker 1: you when he said I have all those things in 25 00:01:35,188 --> 00:01:39,268 Speaker 1: my house. So we're too just very charged terms Russian 26 00:01:39,388 --> 00:01:42,388 Speaker 1: and bath house. Yeah, yeah, it's true. Let's just say 27 00:01:42,428 --> 00:01:47,628 Speaker 1: bath house training, bath house, bath house is worse. Let's 28 00:01:47,628 --> 00:01:50,348 Speaker 1: stick the landing all right, Time to the lead block. 29 00:01:50,468 --> 00:01:52,388 Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the Jets twenty is so 30 00:01:52,548 --> 00:01:56,588 Speaker 1: so enthused Jets twenty three twenty twenty three draft picks? Wow? 31 00:01:56,588 --> 00:02:00,548 Speaker 1: Shall we know? Um? They have six total three in 32 00:02:00,588 --> 00:02:03,388 Speaker 1: the first two rounds there GM. Joe Douglas was asked 33 00:02:03,388 --> 00:02:07,468 Speaker 1: about that for teenth overall pick looks great. Uh, he's 34 00:02:07,468 --> 00:02:10,068 Speaker 1: asked about it yesterday, specifically about his willingness to part 35 00:02:10,068 --> 00:02:12,988 Speaker 1: ways with it in exchange for a certain four time 36 00:02:13,068 --> 00:02:17,748 Speaker 1: at VP. Where I'm where I'm from, every pick is important, 37 00:02:17,908 --> 00:02:20,788 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, obviously the thirteenth pick is is 38 00:02:21,028 --> 00:02:24,428 Speaker 1: a high pick in around so um, you really really 39 00:02:24,428 --> 00:02:27,748 Speaker 1: have a great opportunity to to bring in a strong player. 40 00:02:28,028 --> 00:02:31,948 Speaker 1: Um so um. Picking in the top fifteen, picking in 41 00:02:31,988 --> 00:02:35,148 Speaker 1: the top twenty, Um, you know the odds, the odds 42 00:02:35,188 --> 00:02:37,988 Speaker 1: of hitting on those guys usually usually go up. Does 43 00:02:38,028 --> 00:02:40,068 Speaker 1: that pick off the table, like, is that something that's 44 00:02:40,188 --> 00:02:42,708 Speaker 1: non non negotiable in a trade? Well, look, I'm not 45 00:02:42,708 --> 00:02:44,908 Speaker 1: going to get in any specifics on what picks have 46 00:02:44,988 --> 00:02:48,588 Speaker 1: been talked about anything. Um, but you know, uh, ultimately 47 00:02:48,628 --> 00:02:50,148 Speaker 1: we're not We're not where we need to be at 48 00:02:50,228 --> 00:02:52,668 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah. Well, first of all, Lamar Jackson's a 49 00:02:52,668 --> 00:02:57,708 Speaker 1: fantastic player. Um, but you know where where we stand is. 50 00:02:58,308 --> 00:03:01,828 Speaker 1: You know, it would be disingenuous and operating negotiating a 51 00:03:01,908 --> 00:03:05,068 Speaker 1: bad faith if we went down that path. So right 52 00:03:05,068 --> 00:03:06,948 Speaker 1: now we have our plan, we have our process, and 53 00:03:06,988 --> 00:03:12,228 Speaker 1: we're sticking to that. If you're keeping tally, that's another 54 00:03:12,348 --> 00:03:16,028 Speaker 1: team on record that is not interested in pursuing Lamar Jackson. 55 00:03:17,708 --> 00:03:19,988 Speaker 1: Why that is the question, and we are going to 56 00:03:20,068 --> 00:03:22,108 Speaker 1: look at that because they are in pursuit of course, 57 00:03:22,108 --> 00:03:24,988 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers in his what they can get or what 58 00:03:25,028 --> 00:03:26,788 Speaker 1: they have to give up to the Green Bay for 59 00:03:26,828 --> 00:03:29,908 Speaker 1: the Jets to retain Rogers and his services at quarterback. 60 00:03:29,948 --> 00:03:31,388 Speaker 1: So what do you think the Jets should be linked 61 00:03:31,348 --> 00:03:34,268 Speaker 1: to part ways with to get their quarterback. Yeah. First, 62 00:03:34,308 --> 00:03:36,108 Speaker 1: as I listen to Joe Douglas and he says, hey, 63 00:03:36,108 --> 00:03:38,268 Speaker 1: we're not interested in Lamar Jackson, I think that just 64 00:03:38,348 --> 00:03:41,828 Speaker 1: has everything to do with Aaron Rodgers. There's the whole 65 00:03:41,868 --> 00:03:44,948 Speaker 1: eighty twenty rule. You have somebody eighty percent, but you 66 00:03:45,188 --> 00:03:46,748 Speaker 1: don't want to go out there looking for the other 67 00:03:46,788 --> 00:03:49,548 Speaker 1: twenty percent. So they're already so far down the role 68 00:03:49,628 --> 00:03:51,748 Speaker 1: with Aaron Rodgers, him saying he wants to be there, 69 00:03:51,948 --> 00:03:53,788 Speaker 1: them saying they want him here. The last thing you 70 00:03:53,828 --> 00:03:56,148 Speaker 1: want is now the GM saying yeah, we're interested in 71 00:03:56,268 --> 00:03:59,188 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson too. Don't want to piss off Aaron Rodgers 72 00:03:59,268 --> 00:04:02,228 Speaker 1: right now. If I'm the Jets, though, I'm not willing 73 00:04:02,268 --> 00:04:05,708 Speaker 1: to part with that thirteenth overall pick. I think knowing 74 00:04:05,748 --> 00:04:09,268 Speaker 1: that they're trying to get Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers is 75 00:04:09,308 --> 00:04:12,108 Speaker 1: an older quarterback. They don't know how long Rodgers wants 76 00:04:12,148 --> 00:04:15,988 Speaker 1: to play. The last few years he's contemplated retirement from 77 00:04:16,028 --> 00:04:17,908 Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers and trying to figure out what 78 00:04:17,988 --> 00:04:20,188 Speaker 1: his future holds. The last thing you want to do 79 00:04:20,268 --> 00:04:22,708 Speaker 1: is now bring him in and give up a pick 80 00:04:22,748 --> 00:04:25,548 Speaker 1: that can help right now with getting him there, and 81 00:04:25,548 --> 00:04:27,788 Speaker 1: it also goes along with trying to get this trade 82 00:04:27,788 --> 00:04:30,708 Speaker 1: done before this year's draft, because now if you have 83 00:04:30,868 --> 00:04:33,428 Speaker 1: that thirteenth pick, you're able possibly to part ways with 84 00:04:33,468 --> 00:04:35,628 Speaker 1: one of those second round picks that they have. You 85 00:04:35,708 --> 00:04:38,588 Speaker 1: get Rodgers there, you draft someone that can help him 86 00:04:38,748 --> 00:04:42,068 Speaker 1: with that thirteen slot. Doesn't have to be an offensive player, 87 00:04:42,228 --> 00:04:44,788 Speaker 1: can be somebody on defense, but as somebody that can 88 00:04:44,828 --> 00:04:48,108 Speaker 1: help us win right now. So I get it. Aaron 89 00:04:48,188 --> 00:04:52,428 Speaker 1: Rodgers generational talent back to back MVPs recently, but still 90 00:04:52,468 --> 00:04:54,468 Speaker 1: I want that thirteenth pick because I want to get 91 00:04:54,508 --> 00:04:56,788 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers in the building, and I want to surround 92 00:04:56,868 --> 00:04:59,428 Speaker 1: him with as much talent as I possibly can in 93 00:04:59,628 --> 00:05:02,428 Speaker 1: year one right now so we can chase the Super Bowl? 94 00:05:02,828 --> 00:05:04,908 Speaker 1: Can you get Aaron Rodgers without that there tea pick? 95 00:05:05,628 --> 00:05:07,628 Speaker 1: I think if I'm the New York Jets, I am. 96 00:05:07,788 --> 00:05:11,188 Speaker 1: I am exhausting that avenue and that route if I 97 00:05:11,268 --> 00:05:13,468 Speaker 1: have to give up a second and another pick, whatever 98 00:05:13,508 --> 00:05:16,428 Speaker 1: the case may be. Until the Green Bay Packers say 99 00:05:16,468 --> 00:05:19,108 Speaker 1: we're not doing it without the thirteenth pick, I am 100 00:05:19,148 --> 00:05:20,788 Speaker 1: trying to do it. I may even give up a 101 00:05:20,788 --> 00:05:22,068 Speaker 1: player or two, but I don't want to give up, 102 00:05:22,108 --> 00:05:25,188 Speaker 1: possibly aout thirteenth pick. What do you do? What I 103 00:05:25,228 --> 00:05:27,868 Speaker 1: do it? Yeah, the thirteenth specific. I think that's pivotal here. 104 00:05:28,988 --> 00:05:31,388 Speaker 1: I don't think it gets done without the thirteen pick. 105 00:05:31,708 --> 00:05:33,228 Speaker 1: I don't think it gains. You'd be willing to give 106 00:05:33,228 --> 00:05:36,268 Speaker 1: it up. I'm willing to give it up because I 107 00:05:36,308 --> 00:05:38,708 Speaker 1: know the player Aaron Rodgers is. I just have to 108 00:05:38,748 --> 00:05:41,708 Speaker 1: have to talk with Aaron Rodgers himself and see what 109 00:05:41,908 --> 00:05:46,468 Speaker 1: he sees his future. If you out here until if 110 00:05:46,468 --> 00:05:48,468 Speaker 1: you out of here in two years, you want to 111 00:05:48,508 --> 00:05:52,388 Speaker 1: get out of Green Bay, live your life outside of 112 00:05:52,428 --> 00:05:55,428 Speaker 1: Green Bay, enjoy your time for two to three years, 113 00:05:55,508 --> 00:05:57,828 Speaker 1: I wouldn't give it up. But if I see if 114 00:05:57,828 --> 00:06:01,308 Speaker 1: I see you four or more years than Yeah, But 115 00:06:01,588 --> 00:06:03,948 Speaker 1: other than that, I can't give it up. I can't 116 00:06:03,988 --> 00:06:08,268 Speaker 1: give up that pig for two good years and maybe 117 00:06:08,348 --> 00:06:11,348 Speaker 1: we have a title run, maybe we don't, And then 118 00:06:11,428 --> 00:06:14,428 Speaker 1: now you like, oh will I had my time in 119 00:06:14,468 --> 00:06:16,988 Speaker 1: New York. It was a great time. I'm glad I 120 00:06:16,988 --> 00:06:21,548 Speaker 1: got to play for a different organization. But I'm done. Yeah, 121 00:06:21,548 --> 00:06:23,628 Speaker 1: it's a great take, both of them, all of them. 122 00:06:23,988 --> 00:06:25,588 Speaker 1: I would give it up even if it works for 123 00:06:25,708 --> 00:06:28,548 Speaker 1: two years. Yeah, do you remember the Rams parade. Do 124 00:06:28,628 --> 00:06:31,108 Speaker 1: you remember that thing that Aaron Donald's up there drinking 125 00:06:31,148 --> 00:06:34,148 Speaker 1: to quil on stage your shirt list. Matthew Stafford's got 126 00:06:34,148 --> 00:06:36,348 Speaker 1: his wife and his children up there. They're going through 127 00:06:36,388 --> 00:06:39,828 Speaker 1: beautiful la was like the greatest day of their lives. Guys. 128 00:06:39,868 --> 00:06:43,628 Speaker 1: They traded a first round pick for a cornerback, another 129 00:06:43,748 --> 00:06:46,548 Speaker 1: first round pick for the same cornerback, and a fourth 130 00:06:46,788 --> 00:06:48,468 Speaker 1: Do you think they give a damn that? It's a 131 00:06:48,508 --> 00:06:50,708 Speaker 1: mess now and all the coaches got fired, and it's 132 00:06:51,028 --> 00:06:53,508 Speaker 1: what are they gonna do? And bleep them picks? Go 133 00:06:53,668 --> 00:06:56,068 Speaker 1: for it? What are you doing? You've got about a 134 00:06:56,188 --> 00:06:58,788 Speaker 1: hundred years of miseries the New York Jets, and I 135 00:06:58,788 --> 00:07:00,948 Speaker 1: think the best to ever play the position is sitting there. 136 00:07:00,988 --> 00:07:04,268 Speaker 1: And you want to hold on to a thirteenth overall pick, 137 00:07:04,428 --> 00:07:06,868 Speaker 1: You're gonna draft some linebacker who maybe is good, maybe 138 00:07:06,868 --> 00:07:09,388 Speaker 1: he's not. Do it. You got a two year window 139 00:07:09,668 --> 00:07:12,108 Speaker 1: if you cash that in. If you win a Super Bowl, 140 00:07:12,148 --> 00:07:13,508 Speaker 1: if you get to a Super if you get to 141 00:07:13,588 --> 00:07:16,548 Speaker 1: a title game, it is worth three first round picks, 142 00:07:16,708 --> 00:07:19,828 Speaker 1: especially for this team that does not do squad, has 143 00:07:19,828 --> 00:07:22,828 Speaker 1: not had good quarterback play. If you lose Rogers because 144 00:07:22,828 --> 00:07:26,348 Speaker 1: you wouldn't give the thirteenth pick. Shame, shame on you, 145 00:07:26,428 --> 00:07:29,268 Speaker 1: and shame for all of your fans. You gotta do it. 146 00:07:29,268 --> 00:07:32,788 Speaker 1: It's Rogers. You're the Jets thirteenth pick. It's great. It's 147 00:07:32,788 --> 00:07:35,028 Speaker 1: not the first overall pick. Frank adam't care if it is. 148 00:07:35,588 --> 00:07:37,148 Speaker 1: Get the guy. Do what you have to do, have 149 00:07:37,228 --> 00:07:39,028 Speaker 1: a parade, and then figure it out that teams are doing. 150 00:07:39,028 --> 00:07:41,508 Speaker 1: Now make a bold move, do it. We had the 151 00:07:41,508 --> 00:07:44,188 Speaker 1: list yesterday of the quarterbacks that are available. From a 152 00:07:44,228 --> 00:07:46,468 Speaker 1: free agent perspective, it's not an oppressive list the guys 153 00:07:46,508 --> 00:07:49,748 Speaker 1: that were available. Let's say, and then so, then Rogers 154 00:07:49,868 --> 00:07:52,628 Speaker 1: is available, He's at your dinner table. Is he going 155 00:07:52,668 --> 00:07:54,228 Speaker 1: to sit down and put the napkin in his lap? 156 00:07:54,348 --> 00:07:57,228 Speaker 1: As the question, Lamar Jackson is available, but what does 157 00:07:57,228 --> 00:07:59,028 Speaker 1: it take to get him? It takes giving up that 158 00:07:59,108 --> 00:08:02,948 Speaker 1: same first round pick. So the thought tree becomes very 159 00:08:03,028 --> 00:08:06,788 Speaker 1: circular with if one first round pick, why not too 160 00:08:06,828 --> 00:08:09,108 Speaker 1: for Lamar Jackson? Who is the better quarterback? And all 161 00:08:09,108 --> 00:08:12,668 Speaker 1: of a sudden, I keep landing back at Aaron Rodgers 162 00:08:12,828 --> 00:08:17,508 Speaker 1: and we had a conversation yesterday about this division in particular. 163 00:08:17,668 --> 00:08:22,268 Speaker 1: And while it's interesting and compelling and competitive. There is 164 00:08:22,268 --> 00:08:24,868 Speaker 1: not one front runner. In fact that Jets beat the Bills, 165 00:08:24,948 --> 00:08:28,308 Speaker 1: the notable we thought front runner last season all of 166 00:08:28,348 --> 00:08:31,268 Speaker 1: a sudden. In this division, it's up for grabs. You 167 00:08:31,308 --> 00:08:34,588 Speaker 1: are competitive within it, even without a quarterback last year. 168 00:08:34,868 --> 00:08:36,828 Speaker 1: So if you are going to give up that pick 169 00:08:36,908 --> 00:08:38,988 Speaker 1: and it's gonna go too, I don't care what you say, 170 00:08:39,068 --> 00:08:42,508 Speaker 1: Joe Douglas, Lamar Jackson or Aaron Rodgers. I think I'd 171 00:08:42,588 --> 00:08:45,388 Speaker 1: rather be Aaron Rodgers for the time being. Well, I 172 00:08:45,428 --> 00:08:48,308 Speaker 1: mean I think Jess for the Jets the last five years. 173 00:08:48,348 --> 00:08:50,828 Speaker 1: You didn't pick two quarterbacks in the first round. Yeah, 174 00:08:51,068 --> 00:08:53,868 Speaker 1: why not just go pick your quarter You can hand too. 175 00:08:53,988 --> 00:08:56,108 Speaker 1: Is your quarterback, and you know what he's coming in with. 176 00:08:56,428 --> 00:08:58,388 Speaker 1: You know, you know how he can play, You know 177 00:08:58,468 --> 00:09:01,268 Speaker 1: how he spends the ball, you know his intelligence at 178 00:09:01,268 --> 00:09:03,668 Speaker 1: a game, you know what he can do. Why not 179 00:09:03,788 --> 00:09:06,948 Speaker 1: do that? Why I try to develop? Why I try 180 00:09:06,988 --> 00:09:09,468 Speaker 1: to wait and develop when you know some of these 181 00:09:09,468 --> 00:09:13,388 Speaker 1: guys are gonna eventually leave. You have the defense right now, 182 00:09:12,908 --> 00:09:16,268 Speaker 1: You have the skill players right now, and some are 183 00:09:16,308 --> 00:09:19,708 Speaker 1: on rookie deals, some are on massive deals. Some you 184 00:09:19,868 --> 00:09:23,188 Speaker 1: just sign so you you you got your steak in 185 00:09:23,228 --> 00:09:25,468 Speaker 1: this day you got your steak in this day, why 186 00:09:25,588 --> 00:09:29,028 Speaker 1: not just go get your favorite food. Get them, get them, 187 00:09:29,388 --> 00:09:31,428 Speaker 1: Jess fans will say this, you're gonna mess this whole 188 00:09:31,428 --> 00:09:33,268 Speaker 1: thing up. We got this great young core, we got 189 00:09:33,268 --> 00:09:36,068 Speaker 1: all these awesome young players. You're gonna bring in the 190 00:09:36,988 --> 00:09:40,188 Speaker 1: flaky weirdo from the from California. It's gonna mess this 191 00:09:40,228 --> 00:09:41,668 Speaker 1: whole thing up. We have a great thing. Why don't 192 00:09:41,708 --> 00:09:43,988 Speaker 1: we trust it because you don't have a quarterback. Guys, 193 00:09:44,268 --> 00:09:45,868 Speaker 1: you have you have a wide receiver in the corner. 194 00:09:45,908 --> 00:09:48,948 Speaker 1: That's awesome. You have no quarterback. To Matt's point, you've 195 00:09:48,988 --> 00:09:52,228 Speaker 1: shown no ability to draft one. Especially go for the 196 00:09:52,268 --> 00:09:54,908 Speaker 1: proven thing. You get that quarterback, you could win the 197 00:09:54,948 --> 00:09:57,468 Speaker 1: Super Bowl next year. Yeah, and I still believe go 198 00:09:57,548 --> 00:09:59,348 Speaker 1: for him. Get them there. Let's try to hold on 199 00:09:59,388 --> 00:10:01,468 Speaker 1: to that thirteenth pick as many picks as possible. We 200 00:10:01,468 --> 00:10:04,708 Speaker 1: can hold on too, because Aaron Rodgers may easily play 201 00:10:04,748 --> 00:10:07,668 Speaker 1: one more year, especially like you guys are saying Matthew Stafford, 202 00:10:07,708 --> 00:10:09,708 Speaker 1: if he goes out and wins a Super Bowl, that's it. 203 00:10:09,828 --> 00:10:11,828 Speaker 1: So is it worth it? Of course, gives many picks 204 00:10:11,828 --> 00:10:13,628 Speaker 1: to win a super Bowl. But at the same time, 205 00:10:13,668 --> 00:10:15,828 Speaker 1: we're still gonna have to develop somebody because there is 206 00:10:15,868 --> 00:10:17,508 Speaker 1: going to need be a need for somebody to play 207 00:10:17,588 --> 00:10:20,028 Speaker 1: quarterback when Aaron Rodgers hangs them up so they can 208 00:10:20,148 --> 00:10:23,388 Speaker 1: keep that thirteenth pick. Unless Agreemy Packerson is not happening 209 00:10:23,388 --> 00:10:28,148 Speaker 1: to one out, I'm trying to hold onto. It's time 210 00:10:28,188 --> 00:10:30,388 Speaker 1: now to welcome to our show, our NFL network front 211 00:10:30,428 --> 00:10:33,188 Speaker 1: office analyst. He's a five time NFL Executive of the Year, 212 00:10:33,268 --> 00:10:35,708 Speaker 1: a three time Super Bowl champion as well. Our friend 213 00:10:35,788 --> 00:10:41,188 Speaker 1: of the show and yours, Scott Pely Rob Scott, good morning, 214 00:10:41,348 --> 00:10:45,828 Speaker 1: Good morning yesterday. Let's get read to it. Laura Jackson 215 00:10:45,868 --> 00:10:49,148 Speaker 1: announced that he requested a trade from the Ravens back 216 00:10:49,188 --> 00:10:51,988 Speaker 1: on March second. What was your reaction to hearing that 217 00:10:52,108 --> 00:10:56,268 Speaker 1: news and how the Ravens have responded, Jamie. I was 218 00:10:56,308 --> 00:10:58,828 Speaker 1: a little bit surprised, because remember I thought this deal 219 00:10:58,908 --> 00:11:01,828 Speaker 1: was going to get done this last year. I spent 220 00:11:01,868 --> 00:11:05,028 Speaker 1: time in training camp with the Ravens and got with 221 00:11:05,188 --> 00:11:07,588 Speaker 1: Lamar with Ericacasas. I thought this deal was going to 222 00:11:07,668 --> 00:11:10,468 Speaker 1: get done. Now, what surprised me was that it came 223 00:11:10,508 --> 00:11:12,788 Speaker 1: out publicly, because again, this is the first time that 224 00:11:12,868 --> 00:11:16,348 Speaker 1: Lamar has spoken publicly in a way that anything can 225 00:11:16,388 --> 00:11:20,468 Speaker 1: be felt or received from a negative standpoint. So to me, 226 00:11:20,628 --> 00:11:23,748 Speaker 1: what this told me was the fact is this may 227 00:11:23,788 --> 00:11:25,988 Speaker 1: be savor rattling on his part, trying to get the 228 00:11:26,068 --> 00:11:28,148 Speaker 1: deal done, but what he is letting them know is 229 00:11:28,228 --> 00:11:31,828 Speaker 1: that this relationship may beginning to erode at this point 230 00:11:31,868 --> 00:11:34,868 Speaker 1: in time, that if the Baltimore Ravens don't pay attention, 231 00:11:35,508 --> 00:11:37,628 Speaker 1: this is going to get serious. This may be his 232 00:11:37,708 --> 00:11:40,148 Speaker 1: final pitch and say, hey, listen, this thing has not 233 00:11:40,228 --> 00:11:43,668 Speaker 1: gone the right way. I'm saying publicly I want to 234 00:11:43,668 --> 00:11:46,108 Speaker 1: get traded, but I don't necessarily want to get traded. 235 00:11:46,268 --> 00:11:48,868 Speaker 1: But you better get to brass tacks and figure this 236 00:11:48,948 --> 00:11:51,148 Speaker 1: deal out because this relationship is not in a good 237 00:11:51,148 --> 00:11:53,228 Speaker 1: spot right now. So I still think that there's a 238 00:11:53,228 --> 00:11:55,068 Speaker 1: way that this can be salvage though, Jamie, to tell 239 00:11:55,068 --> 00:11:58,228 Speaker 1: you the truth, Yeah, we're all waiting to see if 240 00:11:58,268 --> 00:12:00,628 Speaker 1: that actually can happen. Scott, there's something we need you 241 00:12:00,628 --> 00:12:03,028 Speaker 1: to help us figure out. We have Lamar Jackson, a 242 00:12:03,108 --> 00:12:06,708 Speaker 1: quarterback who was franch Eyes tag. We have Aaron Rodgers 243 00:12:06,708 --> 00:12:08,268 Speaker 1: on the other side who is still a member of 244 00:12:08,268 --> 00:12:11,308 Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers, and the judge GM Joe Douglas said, 245 00:12:11,388 --> 00:12:14,828 Speaker 1: inquiring about Lamar Jackson at this point would be disingenuous, 246 00:12:15,028 --> 00:12:17,228 Speaker 1: and he wants to operate it, doesn't want to operate 247 00:12:17,228 --> 00:12:20,348 Speaker 1: in bad faith with the Packers. Break that down. Is 248 00:12:20,348 --> 00:12:23,268 Speaker 1: there a sense of being loyal within trade negotiations? Are 249 00:12:23,268 --> 00:12:25,908 Speaker 1: you trying to keep all doors open and figure out 250 00:12:25,948 --> 00:12:30,348 Speaker 1: what's best for your team? Jason is absolutely an element 251 00:12:30,348 --> 00:12:34,868 Speaker 1: of being loyal to contract negotiations and trade negotiations. And 252 00:12:34,908 --> 00:12:37,988 Speaker 1: in this situation, when you're in the trademarket, you have 253 00:12:37,988 --> 00:12:40,108 Speaker 1: to understand there's only thirty one other teams that you 254 00:12:40,148 --> 00:12:42,908 Speaker 1: can deal with in the world. That's it. So if 255 00:12:42,908 --> 00:12:46,508 Speaker 1: you break trust and you start breaking relationships and you 256 00:12:46,588 --> 00:12:49,188 Speaker 1: develop a reputation as being someone who heads down the 257 00:12:49,228 --> 00:12:51,708 Speaker 1: road with someone and then bails, that's not a good 258 00:12:51,748 --> 00:12:54,588 Speaker 1: reputation to have. So I think what Joe Douglas was 259 00:12:54,628 --> 00:12:57,268 Speaker 1: doing here was telling the truth. Joe is an incredible 260 00:12:57,348 --> 00:13:00,068 Speaker 1: human being and a very trusting human being. What he's 261 00:13:00,068 --> 00:13:02,548 Speaker 1: doing is he's telling the public and also letting the 262 00:13:02,588 --> 00:13:05,668 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers know that. Listen, we've started to walk 263 00:13:05,708 --> 00:13:08,668 Speaker 1: down the aisle. I professed my love to you. I 264 00:13:08,788 --> 00:13:12,148 Speaker 1: want to get this done, but I need some love 265 00:13:12,188 --> 00:13:15,028 Speaker 1: in return. So to me, what Joe Douglas is doing 266 00:13:15,108 --> 00:13:17,428 Speaker 1: is he's speaking the truth. He doesn't want to break 267 00:13:17,468 --> 00:13:19,108 Speaker 1: the trust of the New York Jets and have other 268 00:13:19,148 --> 00:13:22,548 Speaker 1: people perceive him a certain way. However, here's the important thing. 269 00:13:22,788 --> 00:13:25,268 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, Joe Douglas has to 270 00:13:25,308 --> 00:13:27,428 Speaker 1: do what's best for the New York Jets. And if 271 00:13:27,468 --> 00:13:30,428 Speaker 1: they don't come up with a package that makes sense 272 00:13:30,508 --> 00:13:32,668 Speaker 1: that both the Jets can deal with and that the 273 00:13:32,708 --> 00:13:35,068 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers can deal with, Joe's going to have 274 00:13:35,148 --> 00:13:37,508 Speaker 1: to do what's best for the New York Jets. And 275 00:13:37,548 --> 00:13:42,708 Speaker 1: that's when things get difficult. There's your guy, Matt i'd 276 00:13:42,708 --> 00:13:45,668 Speaker 1: just let's go back to the league means real quick. 277 00:13:46,708 --> 00:13:49,268 Speaker 1: If it's one rule that you could change, what would 278 00:13:49,268 --> 00:13:53,388 Speaker 1: that be, Scott. Here we go, Matthew. I'm actually going 279 00:13:53,468 --> 00:13:55,548 Speaker 1: to talk about a rule that I think needs to 280 00:13:55,588 --> 00:13:57,908 Speaker 1: be enhanced. And you're gonna love this one because you're 281 00:13:57,908 --> 00:14:00,188 Speaker 1: a defensive guy. One of the rules that makes me 282 00:14:00,268 --> 00:14:03,268 Speaker 1: crazy is when I watch quarterbacks scramble, get outside of 283 00:14:03,308 --> 00:14:06,548 Speaker 1: the pocket, and because a defensive player has either done 284 00:14:06,588 --> 00:14:09,548 Speaker 1: a great job or the offense has broken down, the 285 00:14:09,668 --> 00:14:12,708 Speaker 1: quarterback can just throw the ball away and it's an 286 00:14:12,708 --> 00:14:15,228 Speaker 1: incompletion and you go back to the line of scrimmage. 287 00:14:15,388 --> 00:14:18,468 Speaker 1: People don't understand how hard it is for defensive lineman 288 00:14:18,588 --> 00:14:22,108 Speaker 1: guys like you, Matthew, to get after quarterbacks and when 289 00:14:22,148 --> 00:14:24,228 Speaker 1: they do a great job. To me, it's one of 290 00:14:24,268 --> 00:14:28,588 Speaker 1: the very few players where great performance is not rewarded. 291 00:14:28,628 --> 00:14:31,308 Speaker 1: It's actually punished because a defensive lineman has to work 292 00:14:31,348 --> 00:14:33,548 Speaker 1: so hard through all the extra holding, the stuff that 293 00:14:33,588 --> 00:14:35,948 Speaker 1: goes on, and all of a sudden, the quarterback gets 294 00:14:35,948 --> 00:14:38,428 Speaker 1: outside of the pocket throws it away. Hey, no harm, 295 00:14:38,508 --> 00:14:40,748 Speaker 1: no foul, Let's get back to the line of scrimmage. 296 00:14:40,748 --> 00:14:42,948 Speaker 1: It's almost like a do over. So to me, I 297 00:14:42,988 --> 00:14:46,348 Speaker 1: would love to see the rule be changed that the 298 00:14:46,428 --> 00:14:49,468 Speaker 1: quarterback when he throws it away to save himself, because 299 00:14:49,468 --> 00:14:52,668 Speaker 1: I'm all about players safety, But it's a sack at 300 00:14:52,708 --> 00:14:55,348 Speaker 1: that point, because again, you have to reward the defense 301 00:14:55,348 --> 00:14:58,588 Speaker 1: for doing a good job. In my opinion, Yeah, yeah, 302 00:14:58,668 --> 00:15:00,548 Speaker 1: or we can just go straight to the third or fifteen. 303 00:15:01,228 --> 00:15:06,148 Speaker 1: Is that the idea? Yeah, regardless of down to distance. Listen, 304 00:15:06,148 --> 00:15:07,508 Speaker 1: I'm going to add live this guy because we got 305 00:15:07,548 --> 00:15:09,428 Speaker 1: a pass rusher here. One of the things that comes 306 00:15:09,508 --> 00:15:11,108 Speaker 1: up and has come up and we will continue to 307 00:15:11,148 --> 00:15:14,948 Speaker 1: come up, is whether roughing the past or should be reviewable. 308 00:15:15,028 --> 00:15:16,868 Speaker 1: And I think there's a lot of fans who want it, 309 00:15:17,188 --> 00:15:19,508 Speaker 1: and there's probably a certain person at the table who 310 00:15:19,548 --> 00:15:22,188 Speaker 1: wants it. You want to protect the quarterback as much 311 00:15:22,188 --> 00:15:25,108 Speaker 1: as anybody, Scott, but it's this dicey cross section between 312 00:15:25,108 --> 00:15:30,308 Speaker 1: the two should past roughing the pastor being reviewable you think, Kyle, 313 00:15:30,388 --> 00:15:34,468 Speaker 1: I'm an absolute advocate of it being being reviewable because 314 00:15:34,468 --> 00:15:37,828 Speaker 1: there's too many times where we have seen in reviews 315 00:15:37,868 --> 00:15:42,468 Speaker 1: and replays that there was actually an uninten unintentional hit 316 00:15:42,828 --> 00:15:45,548 Speaker 1: or a hit that wasn't that bad. And to me, 317 00:15:46,348 --> 00:15:48,948 Speaker 1: when replay first started, I was in the league. I 318 00:15:48,948 --> 00:15:51,308 Speaker 1: was in those meetings down at the owner's meetings when 319 00:15:51,308 --> 00:15:53,428 Speaker 1: the competition committee was talking about it, and I remember 320 00:15:53,468 --> 00:15:55,268 Speaker 1: being in those meetings with Bill and one of the 321 00:15:55,308 --> 00:15:58,428 Speaker 1: things that he and I talked about openly about replay 322 00:15:58,828 --> 00:16:01,588 Speaker 1: was it wet. We asked what was the purpose of replay, 323 00:16:01,668 --> 00:16:04,028 Speaker 1: and the purpose of replay was it we wanted to 324 00:16:04,028 --> 00:16:07,868 Speaker 1: get his many things right as possible. To me, replay 325 00:16:08,188 --> 00:16:10,428 Speaker 1: on a sack or a hit on the quarterback or 326 00:16:10,508 --> 00:16:13,508 Speaker 1: roughing the quarterback is absolutely a play that should be 327 00:16:13,548 --> 00:16:16,268 Speaker 1: reviewable because a lot of times in those situations, if 328 00:16:16,348 --> 00:16:18,548 Speaker 1: we go back when we look at the history of 329 00:16:18,588 --> 00:16:21,668 Speaker 1: the plays and the times data has happened, they have 330 00:16:21,828 --> 00:16:25,508 Speaker 1: been it's been moments where those penalties have really shifted 331 00:16:25,668 --> 00:16:27,628 Speaker 1: how things are going to be. So I would absolutely 332 00:16:27,668 --> 00:16:30,748 Speaker 1: be about that play being reviewable. Kyle, great answer. I 333 00:16:30,868 --> 00:16:33,188 Speaker 1: know that is a good answer.

You end up spending time at 351 00:17:39,348 --> 00:17:42,508 Speaker 1: Old Dominion before transferring to Georgia Tech. Tell us about 352 00:17:42,548 --> 00:17:44,468 Speaker 1: your football journey? What you what you want people to 353 00:17:44,548 --> 00:17:46,988 Speaker 1: know about you to go from a freshman tight end 354 00:17:46,988 --> 00:17:50,908 Speaker 1: recruit to now a potential first round draft pick. Yeah, 355 00:17:50,948 --> 00:17:54,348 Speaker 1: it's definitely been a journeyman's journey for sure. Wasn't recruited 356 00:17:54,348 --> 00:17:56,948 Speaker 1: out of high school. I didn't get my first offer 357 00:17:57,028 --> 00:18:00,548 Speaker 1: until January of my senior year. UM, I actually considered 358 00:18:00,548 --> 00:18:02,508 Speaker 1: going to the military. I took the ad. I was 359 00:18:02,548 --> 00:18:05,188 Speaker 1: ready to go to the military out of high school. 360 00:18:05,708 --> 00:18:07,828 Speaker 1: But luckily my coaches took a chance on me at 361 00:18:07,828 --> 00:18:10,908 Speaker 1: whole demand and brought me in as a tight end initially. 362 00:18:13,868 --> 00:18:16,508 Speaker 1: And then what brought you to Georgia Tech? What how 363 00:18:16,548 --> 00:18:18,948 Speaker 1: do you go from tight end to defensive end from 364 00:18:18,948 --> 00:18:22,188 Speaker 1: one school to the next. Yeah, So it was actually 365 00:18:22,228 --> 00:18:26,188 Speaker 1: like my coaches sat me down one day after the season, 366 00:18:26,268 --> 00:18:28,468 Speaker 1: just came off starting tight end, and they were like, yeah, 367 00:18:28,468 --> 00:18:30,628 Speaker 1: we want to switch you to defense now, So I 368 00:18:30,668 --> 00:18:33,868 Speaker 1: was like, Okay, that's different, but I just went with it, 369 00:18:34,028 --> 00:18:35,868 Speaker 1: enrolled with the punches and had a pretty good season. 370 00:18:35,868 --> 00:18:40,708 Speaker 1: In twenty nineteen, COVID happened, and the once COVID happened, 371 00:18:40,708 --> 00:18:43,828 Speaker 1: I decided to enter the portal and Georgia Tech really 372 00:18:44,028 --> 00:18:45,708 Speaker 1: like spoke to me as far as like the coaching 373 00:18:45,748 --> 00:18:48,788 Speaker 1: staff because we had a Marco Coleman Larry Knight there 374 00:18:48,908 --> 00:18:51,108 Speaker 1: and they were really honest about like how I can 375 00:18:51,188 --> 00:18:53,188 Speaker 1: improve my game versus all the other coaches that I 376 00:18:53,188 --> 00:18:55,628 Speaker 1: really talked to who were just telling me I was 377 00:18:55,708 --> 00:18:57,268 Speaker 1: such a good player and things like that. And I 378 00:18:57,388 --> 00:19:00,668 Speaker 1: value that honesty because I want to get better ultimately, 379 00:19:01,148 --> 00:19:02,788 Speaker 1: and so that really spoke to me. And then being 380 00:19:02,828 --> 00:19:07,268 Speaker 1: in Atlanta, Georgia Tech set you up really well with 381 00:19:07,348 --> 00:19:10,788 Speaker 1: life outside of football as far as meeting very affluent 382 00:19:10,828 --> 00:19:13,508 Speaker 1: people in the community. So I had internships, I was 383 00:19:13,548 --> 00:19:17,468 Speaker 1: working for companies like McKinney's Certified Finishes and just getting 384 00:19:17,508 --> 00:19:20,228 Speaker 1: work experience and for life like and that was big 385 00:19:20,268 --> 00:19:24,908 Speaker 1: for me as well. Well. You had a phenomenal performance 386 00:19:24,948 --> 00:19:27,708 Speaker 1: at both your combining or pro day. What do you 387 00:19:27,748 --> 00:19:31,268 Speaker 1: hope that stood out to the scouts that I got 388 00:19:31,268 --> 00:19:34,948 Speaker 1: to watch you and it came to see you. Yeah. 389 00:19:34,948 --> 00:19:37,788 Speaker 1: So for me, it's not about like the performance, because 390 00:19:38,348 --> 00:19:39,668 Speaker 1: it is what it is. It's gonna be what it's 391 00:19:39,668 --> 00:19:42,548 Speaker 1: gonna be. But it's just the desire to always get 392 00:19:42,588 --> 00:19:44,668 Speaker 1: better and the desire to always improve. It is one 393 00:19:44,668 --> 00:19:47,228 Speaker 1: thing I want people to know and see that I'm 394 00:19:47,268 --> 00:19:53,148 Speaker 1: always gonna work to it be better than I was yesterday. Well, listen, 395 00:19:53,188 --> 00:19:54,788 Speaker 1: you're better in a lot of ways, and you're obviously 396 00:19:55,028 --> 00:19:57,148 Speaker 1: very very sharp guy. We don't see a lot of 397 00:19:57,348 --> 00:19:59,908 Speaker 1: real estate majors coming in here. That was your major 398 00:19:59,908 --> 00:20:02,308 Speaker 1: at Old Dominion real Estate. We're here that you are 399 00:20:02,348 --> 00:20:05,068 Speaker 1: good with finances, which is awesome and love that. Give 400 00:20:05,508 --> 00:20:08,148 Speaker 1: your draft class some advice, Yeah, what is the best 401 00:20:08,188 --> 00:20:10,108 Speaker 1: way as they enter the league and they start getting 402 00:20:10,188 --> 00:20:12,588 Speaker 1: checks for them to save some money and make sure 403 00:20:12,588 --> 00:20:17,788 Speaker 1: that money's their long term So for me, it's passive 404 00:20:17,828 --> 00:20:22,628 Speaker 1: income and equity. I'm currently looking at buying a ten 405 00:20:22,668 --> 00:20:25,748 Speaker 1: to twenty unit property right now down here in Atlanta 406 00:20:25,828 --> 00:20:27,748 Speaker 1: just for having the equity of having some of that 407 00:20:28,948 --> 00:20:31,548 Speaker 1: revenue coming in and so that's going to stick with 408 00:20:31,628 --> 00:20:34,388 Speaker 1: you for the rest of your life. If you manage 409 00:20:34,388 --> 00:20:36,948 Speaker 1: it right, and that's big. So just having assets that 410 00:20:36,988 --> 00:20:40,628 Speaker 1: appreciate versus depreciate assets like hard as jewelry, things like 411 00:20:40,628 --> 00:20:45,468 Speaker 1: that is one major thing. Kean. I absolutely love to 412 00:20:45,508 --> 00:20:47,228 Speaker 1: hear that. Guys that play in the league for a 413 00:20:47,268 --> 00:20:49,508 Speaker 1: long time is not untill they're well in that they 414 00:20:49,508 --> 00:20:51,588 Speaker 1: start to develop what they want to do off the field. 415 00:20:51,628 --> 00:20:54,388 Speaker 1: And you already know. But even beyond that, you've had 416 00:20:54,428 --> 00:20:56,628 Speaker 1: a lot of jobs growing up. So now I hear 417 00:20:56,708 --> 00:20:59,788 Speaker 1: you talking about financing and assets and things of that nature, 418 00:21:00,068 --> 00:21:02,948 Speaker 1: But what's the oddest job that you've ever had grown 419 00:21:03,068 --> 00:21:05,948 Speaker 1: up before? You're into real estate in the finances and 420 00:21:05,988 --> 00:21:09,428 Speaker 1: all of those things. So yeah, So I was actually 421 00:21:09,428 --> 00:21:13,508 Speaker 1: a Domino's delivery driver, So me being six get them 422 00:21:13,508 --> 00:21:16,708 Speaker 1: and delivering you pizzas definitely was. I turned a couple 423 00:21:16,748 --> 00:21:18,428 Speaker 1: of heads when I was out there delivering pizzas, So 424 00:21:18,468 --> 00:21:21,588 Speaker 1: that was one of the oddest jobs for sure. Put 425 00:21:21,588 --> 00:21:23,668 Speaker 1: it on the list. We love it. But now you're 426 00:21:24,188 --> 00:21:25,748 Speaker 1: going to be picked in the NFL draft, and that's 427 00:21:25,748 --> 00:21:28,108 Speaker 1: fantastic for you. You seem like a guy that likes 428 00:21:28,108 --> 00:21:30,188 Speaker 1: to have all of the knowledge right out in front 429 00:21:30,188 --> 00:21:32,308 Speaker 1: of you. You'd like to know the situation you're getting into. 430 00:21:32,548 --> 00:21:35,028 Speaker 1: We've got a Pro Bowl Passbusher sitting at the table 431 00:21:35,068 --> 00:21:37,388 Speaker 1: with us this morning. You got a question for him 432 00:21:37,428 --> 00:21:42,428 Speaker 1: as you start to amass your wisdom in your NFL journey. Definitely, 433 00:21:42,708 --> 00:21:44,308 Speaker 1: what are some of the challenges that you had to 434 00:21:44,308 --> 00:21:47,508 Speaker 1: overcome in that year transitioning from college to the NFL 435 00:21:47,588 --> 00:21:50,068 Speaker 1: from like dealing with tackles, just life in general, things 436 00:21:50,108 --> 00:21:56,268 Speaker 1: like that, life in general has a new city, new team. 437 00:21:56,908 --> 00:21:59,788 Speaker 1: You gotta find your footing in your place, man and 438 00:22:00,148 --> 00:22:04,108 Speaker 1: be yourself. But as far as the football aspect, you 439 00:22:04,148 --> 00:22:06,628 Speaker 1: all so got to come in. You gotta do your 440 00:22:06,708 --> 00:22:09,868 Speaker 1: rookie due diligence. You gotta. It's gonna be the hardest 441 00:22:09,948 --> 00:22:13,308 Speaker 1: year of your NFL career. So you gotta do your 442 00:22:13,388 --> 00:22:16,908 Speaker 1: rookie duties. But then you you you get up earlier 443 00:22:16,908 --> 00:22:20,788 Speaker 1: than everybody, You have to facility earlier than everybody. Uh, 444 00:22:20,908 --> 00:22:23,628 Speaker 1: then you also have to perform. It's gonna it's gonna 445 00:22:23,628 --> 00:22:26,428 Speaker 1: be a long it's going to be a long linery 446 00:22:26,468 --> 00:22:29,188 Speaker 1: list of things you have to do for your room 447 00:22:29,308 --> 00:22:31,708 Speaker 1: and for the guys that you're around. But then you 448 00:22:31,788 --> 00:22:34,228 Speaker 1: also have to go out there and put your best 449 00:22:34,268 --> 00:22:37,228 Speaker 1: foot for it on the field. And so that's that's 450 00:22:37,268 --> 00:22:41,348 Speaker 1: gonna be difficult. But as you know, and as you've 451 00:22:41,348 --> 00:22:43,908 Speaker 1: seen it's been done, you're not the first one that's 452 00:22:43,908 --> 00:22:46,348 Speaker 1: going to go through it. So what you have to 453 00:22:46,388 --> 00:22:48,988 Speaker 1: do is you have to put your pride aside, and 454 00:22:49,068 --> 00:22:52,108 Speaker 1: you have to ask questions, ask as many questions from 455 00:22:52,188 --> 00:22:56,508 Speaker 1: veterans and older guys and just pill apart their brains 456 00:22:56,508 --> 00:22:59,948 Speaker 1: and their knowledge. So when you do come into some 457 00:23:00,148 --> 00:23:02,868 Speaker 1: situations that you might not never think you're going to 458 00:23:02,948 --> 00:23:09,948 Speaker 1: be in where there is financially kids, wife, later on 459 00:23:10,028 --> 00:23:11,948 Speaker 1: in life, you're gonna be like, oh, man, I talked 460 00:23:11,988 --> 00:23:15,068 Speaker 1: to I talked to Jason about this five years ago, 461 00:23:15,308 --> 00:23:18,908 Speaker 1: or oh I took this from Seis or I took 462 00:23:18,948 --> 00:23:23,108 Speaker 1: this from a guy that I talked to in my 463 00:23:23,268 --> 00:23:26,388 Speaker 1: rookie year, and then you just passed knowledge down.

You have an opportunity here to 553 00:27:58,628 --> 00:28:01,988 Speaker 1: ask Jason mccordy a question and how he might be 554 00:28:02,068 --> 00:28:06,348 Speaker 1: able to help you start your NFL journey. Oh, main 555 00:28:06,508 --> 00:28:10,788 Speaker 1: question I have is, well, how do you know how 556 00:28:10,828 --> 00:28:12,828 Speaker 1: do you keep your longevity? You know, you play so 557 00:28:12,988 --> 00:28:16,388 Speaker 1: long and you know just now retiring some advice you 558 00:28:16,468 --> 00:28:18,908 Speaker 1: can give to an incoming rookie and just being able 559 00:28:18,948 --> 00:28:22,108 Speaker 1: to stand at least so long. Yeah, for sure, when 560 00:28:22,108 --> 00:28:24,148 Speaker 1: you get drafted, you're gonna walk into one of thirty 561 00:28:24,188 --> 00:28:27,188 Speaker 1: two different facilities in the NFL, and somewhere in that 562 00:28:27,348 --> 00:28:28,948 Speaker 1: locker room is going to be a vet that has 563 00:28:28,948 --> 00:28:32,068 Speaker 1: already done what you're attempting to do. Find that vet 564 00:28:32,228 --> 00:28:35,668 Speaker 1: and follow them, ask them questions, but most importantly, watch 565 00:28:35,748 --> 00:28:37,988 Speaker 1: and study their routine. When you get in the league, 566 00:28:38,308 --> 00:28:41,188 Speaker 1: develop a routine right away and stick to it. I 567 00:28:41,308 --> 00:28:44,228 Speaker 1: think when you can do that, you didn't develop consistency 568 00:28:44,268 --> 00:28:46,268 Speaker 1: and you learn how to be a pro. And those 569 00:28:46,308 --> 00:28:47,828 Speaker 1: are two things that are going to help you play 570 00:28:47,908 --> 00:28:50,828 Speaker 1: for a long time. Your talent and your ability.
