And uh so the 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:25.079 first people came by our house and this little neighbor kid, 0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:27.000 we know, oh the buckets right there. He goes up 0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:28.840 there and I just hear them, just take the whole thing. 0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:33.120 First kid, And that's why you have to police them. 0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:34.760 And that's why I give him options. 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:36.400 So I was like, I was like, hey, man, just 0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:38.240 put some of that back. He's like, you know, he's 0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:40.240 like six. He's like, I don't know, No, IM not 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:43.560 trying to share this. I want it all all right. 0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:45.680 So we got a lot of stuff to talk about today. 0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:47.520 We got to do a little recap of the Philly game. 0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:49.200 But I think the main thing we got to talk about, 0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:52.880 yeah yeah, yeah, it is the trade man. 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:56.000 When did in the NFL turned to the NBA trade. 0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:58.120 Yeah, I mean, like when did this start? 0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:00.160 Like last year was the best, Yeah, last year was 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:00.560 a big deal. 0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:02.920 This one was a little bit more location. 0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:05.080 Dude, But I still felt like the energy was there, 0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:07.240 Like it felt like for the first time, like a 0:04:07.240 --> 0:04:09.000 lot of players didn't know if they was gonna be 0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:09.480 on their tea. 0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:10.960 It's a good point, which. 0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:12.360 That's kind of NBA is shut. 0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:15.080 That ain't really NFL like they let you finish out 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:17.360 the year before. And I think maybe because they're doing 0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:20.280 the contracts a little different now, they willing to let 0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:21.360 go of these contracts. 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:23.800 And I think the team that really. 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:25.320 Feel like they got a chance to win the Super Bowl, 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:26.560 they putting the pedal to the medal. 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:28.760 Yeah, they ain't just waiting back no more. 0:04:28.880 --> 0:04:30.560 You see that, And I think, like, let's talk about that. 0:04:30.600 --> 0:04:32.560 I think with San Francisco, for example, you know, giving 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:34.880 up a third round pick or a compensitory third round pick, 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.600 which means they have a compensitory pick from their coach 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.280 Ryan I believe in maybe one other player, Jason, I'm 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:41.680 not sure exactly playing that a. 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:42.839 Little more compensitory pick. 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:45.600 They get a pick because of they replace it if 0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:46.440 you lose something. 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:48.560 They replace it with a pick. Let's just say if 0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:50.320 we lost montig. 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:52.279 So we got a compensitory pick for Brandon Shriff. 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:52.800 Yeah we did. 0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:54.400 So he goes and he gets paid a certain amount 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:56.000 of money by a different team, and he's considered like 0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:57.240 a cornerstone. 0:04:56.720 --> 0:04:58.520 Piece, you know. 0:04:58.600 --> 0:05:00.839 So what they do is they have like kind of 0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:02.440 flux picks at the end of the round, and so 0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:04.599 you get one of those third round flux picks. 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:08.880 Yeah, and so trying to understand the compensatory part of 0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:11.120 that pick, like, Okay, you either getting a pick or not. 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:12.400 No, you're gonna get it. 0:05:12.400 --> 0:05:15.560 They're basically like extra picks that the league allocates, and 0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:17.680 I think you can get a compensory third, fourth, fifth, 0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:19.360 or sixth, maybe seventh even too. 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:21.320 So now I think about it, the third round, I 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.560 have thirty five picks in it, thirty six picks instead 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:25.320 of the thirty two. 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:28.120 And so that's why this is kind of this is 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:29.880 a little bit weird. I think a lot of fans 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.440 are maybe upset about it because that compensatory even though 0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:35.400 it's a third round pick, it's a compensatory pick, which 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:37.280 means it's one of the last picks of the third Yeah, 0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:38.960 it's going to be so essentially it plays like a 0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:41.920 fourth round like this. Last year we had two compensatory 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:45.280 fourth round yes, yeah, and they basically play like fifth 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:48.280 round picks. So you know, I just wanted to get 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:52.040 your kind of initial thoughts on that and see see 0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:53.520 how you guys felt, because there's a lot of people 0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:56.000 who are not feeling too positive about it. 0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:58.920 What I think the way they not feeling feeling good 0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:00.560 about is the fact that he was the number one 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:01.000 two pick. 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:03.400 I think you can't think about that he was the 0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:04.960 number two pick four years ago. 0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:07.960 And this is what just just a little housekeeping note there. 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:10.599 They're gonna get a couple of compenstory picks, ones for 0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:14.599 the coach, ones for Mike McGlinchey, and then Ray Karthon 0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:16.679 is the other one. They're they're gonna three compensitory picks 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:18.400 and players that have left. 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:18.920 Yeah, right. 0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:22.400 I think they just mad because they felt like we 0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:23.920 put more in than we got back. 0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:25.640 I mean we did, but. 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:28.080 Guess what, that's the draft. I'm not tell people this 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:29.760 all the time. I don't care if you got the 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:33.200 first pick, ten pick, ain't no guarantees and Draga not 0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:38.360 one guarantee and sometimes it ain't the player, it's the place. 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:40.880 And when I think about Chase, it makes me go 0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:42.719 back to when I was coming out. If I would 0:06:42.720 --> 0:06:45.400 have got drafted by the Saints, my career would have 0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:48.120 started off rocket too, because I was too close to Mississippi, 0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:50.600 too close to my family, too close to home. 0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:52.919 Maybe this is a blessing in. 0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:56.360 Disguise for this guy to actually reach his peak. 0:06:56.800 --> 0:06:59.320 And it's humbling. It's humbling to get traded. 0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:01.440 I think that's and you've been and Tenny, you were 0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:02.840 talking about this a little bit too with your time 0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:04.160 in New York, and I just wonder if you want 0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:05.360 to bring some of that to the podcast. 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:08.080 I mean, the thing that you know so so I 0:07:08.120 --> 0:07:10.160 get what the fans are talking about, which is a 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:13.360 bunch of hoopla. And sorry fans, hoopla. I think it's 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:16.559 a hoopla because I feel like we can't one minute 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:18.360 be on the fence saying that none of these guys 0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:20.040 deserve to be here, and then the next minute being 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:21.400 mad when they get shipped out. 0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:23.200 I say, you're not gonna pay them, And. 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:25.239 Then we can't be on the fence of saying that. Okay, 0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:28.560 when the season o with everybody gone. But then ask 0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:31.440 the question of why we're doing it now. Look, at 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:34.480 the end of the day, things change drastically sometimes and 0:07:34.880 --> 0:07:39.200 whatever for whatever reason, both of these guys sweat and 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.160 pay I mean and Chase, what's going to be potentially 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:44.200 got guys that we have to pay twenty plus mire 0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:46.600 you need one day and they're here and we have 0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:49.920 other guys on the team that can fit fill in 0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:52.680 those spots and go out there and play productively. So 0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:55.360 when you have that kind of debt and you feel 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:58.040 like you can get more for these guys, now you 0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:00.560 have to make those moves. You understand, like I'd rather 0:08:00.760 --> 0:08:02.720 see us make moves and get picks then sit here 0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:04.200 and say we go hold on to these guys and 0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:05.320 at the end of the year, both of them not 0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:08.200 going nothing, getting nothing from them. But on the flip 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:11.120 side of all that, when I look at what transpired 0:08:11.160 --> 0:08:13.840 with Chase, I think it's great. I think it's great 0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:17.080 for him because one, he's a DC guy. It's tough 0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:19.880 to play home. I talked about, you know, when I 0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:23.640 was in Miami as a collegiate ball player, it was 0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:26.280 tough to be santannamau Mouth. At the same time, I 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:26.760 was trying to. 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:28.320 Can you talk about that a little bit, like when 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.080 you say it's tough to be santannamaus you got people 0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:31.520 around you, you got family around you, Like what. 0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:34.320 First of all, I was trying to be Santantamous. You know, 0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:36.240 I was trying to make that name a household name. 0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:38.880 He wasn't there yet. But in order for me to 0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:41.839 make that name a household name, I experimented. I had 0:08:41.880 --> 0:08:45.080 time to experiment. I said to myself, I'm gonna scrap 0:08:45.240 --> 0:08:49.800 everything that I'm doing, partying girls, whatever it may have been, 0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:52.160 anything that it was, I was gonna scrap it because 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:55.120 I wanted to become a household name. I wanted to 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.000 be that guy on Saturdays that people came to the 0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:59.800 stadium winning at number six and saying, oh, we're finna 0:08:59.800 --> 0:09:02.160 see the show. And it happened. It worked, And so 0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:05.080 when I saw my transformation that okay, damn. When I 0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:07.280 stopped hanging out, when I stopped doing going back to 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:10.000 the hood, stop going home bgal, Yep, that was the 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:12.920 biggest thing. When I stopped showing my face out started 0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:15.520 just strictly and I wasn't doing nothing different. When I 0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:18.320 was locally around the campus. I just stayed away from 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:20.480 all the things that were made say that Tanner was 0:09:20.520 --> 0:09:23.000 out tonight, Tanner was doing this, I just stayed away 0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:26.199 from it, and my game risen. So when I look 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:29.000 at what Chase had going on here, and I didn't 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:30.560 even know half of the stuff that Chase was doing, 0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:33.280 but just hearing the rumors and the rumblings and just 0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:35.520 knowing how hard it's and difficult it is to live 0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:39.160 up to playing here and being a household name, already 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:42.640 being a professional, having everything that you can possibly want 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:45.120 and need, and still having to go out there and 0:09:45.160 --> 0:09:47.440 play the game. It was difficult. So I just felt 0:09:47.440 --> 0:09:49.240 like it was gonna be a better move for him. 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:51.840 Or not knowing it was gonna happen this soon, I 0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:54.160 thought in the future we would see this guy go elsewhere. 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:57.280 But being that it was done the other day, I 0:09:57.360 --> 0:09:59.120 think it's gonna be great for us career after. 0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:00.920 You're gonna be beneficial to him. 0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:03.559 And I think, me meeting Tanna in college, the one 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:05.880 thing I can give him the way he. 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:07.079 Acts now is how he act then. 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:09.680 He was very mature for his age, and then why. 0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:13.320 We call him old man because he just had this 0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:17.560 all right, But everybody can't self checked, theyself like think 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:21.080 about it. So we're talking about Santana at eighteen, nineteen twenty, 0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:25.200 we're talking about Chase at twenty four. So it's hard 0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:29.480 to say, you know what, and we talking about Miami. Man, 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.840 I want to, but they ain't gonna work for me. 0:10:33.200 --> 0:10:37.479 You know, it's hard to self identify that, and sometimes people. 0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:38.559 Need to take that out of your hand. 0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:40.920 And I thought it was a burden on Chase being 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:45.000 here with family friends around the corner, like and expectation 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:48.800 played at the math supposed to be God's gift to defense, 0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:51.640 and once you don't live up to that, you're gonna have. 0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:52.280 You hate us. 0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:53.960 You're gonna have people say, oh, he hate this, he 0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:56.320 hain't this. I always felt like he was a good player. 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:59.440 I just felt like the person got in the way 0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:00.800 of the player. 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:04.080 But also too with all that that extra or added 0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:08.480 stress of trying to be him, live up or live 0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:11.800 up to who they expect him to be. It's the team, 0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:14.640 you know how many expectations it is for the Redskins, 0:11:15.120 --> 0:11:17.840 for the Commanders to be the Redskins again, like to 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:21.319 be that that one franchise that everybody wants to be 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:24.160 it's hard and it's so much hooplog going on around 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:27.560 this team alone. Then you add that, yeah, it's just 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:29.360 too much. So I look at it like, man, it 0:11:29.440 --> 0:11:31.120 was great for the kid man. I think it's great 0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:33.040 for him to get away and go out there and 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:35.600 be with all he can be. But I just think 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:39.360 when it comes to what you're hearing, hey, it's other 0:11:39.400 --> 0:11:41.920 guys we know in this league all too well that 0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:44.679 it's the next man you know, and the show much 0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:48.400 go on. So I'm looking for now, regardless of what 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:52.640 happened in the trade atmosphere, I'm looking for now for 0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:55.640 all these guys who played before to now finally get 0:11:55.640 --> 0:11:57.280 a chance to go out there and be the guys 0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:00.360 that they want or they were trying to be. This 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:01.960 guy's now for to beat the stars. 0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:04.520 They now get that chance to star. 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:06.559 That's my show. Ye ye, let me go out here 0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:07.880 and see what y'all. 0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:11.520 Well, y'all shocked that Monte has had more value, Like 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:14.040 more people was at the Montes than they were Chase. 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:16.520 Not really for me, for me personally, No, I think 0:12:16.559 --> 0:12:18.680 the reason is like Montese has just been if you 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:21.680 just look at play, just been more consistent. He's been healthier, 0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:24.680 He's like an established commodity. I think he plays in 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:26.720 the context of the defense a little bit better than 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:29.319 Chase does. That's just watching film, you know. So I 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:31.000 would just say, like it makes a lot of sense, 0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.040 and like the fact that he was getting all the calls, 0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:35.240 and I think that there was like a big pull 0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:37.360 within the organization to try and keep him. But one 0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:38.760 of the things is you get like a second round 0:12:38.760 --> 0:12:39.160 pick from. 0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:40.959 The Bears, it's really a first round that's a first 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:41.400 round pick. 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:42.560 I mean that's going to be like, what is that 0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:46.840 probably the thirty. Like that's that's a huge deal when 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:49.280 you're trying to build for next year, that pick, that 0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:53.480 second round pick becomes excellent trade value in terms of 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:56.240 moving around. So I think it doesn't surprise me with Montes. 0:12:56.320 --> 0:12:58.360 He's just been more consistent. He's been healthier, and I 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:01.359 think a lot of people value the health of those players. 0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:03.360 Quite that's ability is availability. 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.640 Yeah, And he's just been a super consistent guy. Right, 0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:07.360 So I look at that and I just say that 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:11.040 while everything about Montese, I would have thought they would 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:12.200 have tried to keep him. I would have thought they 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:15.200 would have tried to pay him up to probably. It's 0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:18.280 just that what the pairs offered is like it's it's 0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:20.640 kind of crazy, and I don't say crazy, but it's like. 0:13:20.679 --> 0:13:23.880 No, I understand it benefited the Bears and it benefited us. 0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:26.599 But also you were talking about a front four a 0:13:26.720 --> 0:13:29.760 first round, and that you knew from drafting him you 0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:32.360 won't gonna be to sign themll so they go to 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:33.439 realistic part of. 0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:35.679 This is a GM. Think about it. 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:38.959 If they if they did reach their peak, you're still 0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:41.240 gonna be to play them all like you just especially 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:44.679 if they asly as they do. Like I thought negotiating 0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:47.199 when you negotiate, and I thought, all right, I think 0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:50.280 swear would be the easiest one to negotiate and say, 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:52.480 you know, listen, Letsten, let's find a point. Let me 0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:54.280 just pay you what I paid the run pay it's 0:13:54.280 --> 0:13:57.400 call it a day. But there's still a lot of money. 0:13:57.480 --> 0:14:00.320 And now you're talking about having five picks here at 0:14:00.360 --> 0:14:03.520 high peaks and ninety million dollars of camp room. Like 0:14:03.600 --> 0:14:06.760 you can literally reshape this whole roster if you want, 0:14:06.760 --> 0:14:09.200 But it also allows you to pay the cam curls 0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:13.160 of the work. It allows you to keep the nucleus together. 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:15.160 Well it's it's gonna be a different nucleus than I 0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.160 think maybe a lot of fans identified. But you know, 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:19.240 camp Curll is a big part of this defense definitely, 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:21.080 and get and be able to pay him and you know, 0:14:21.120 --> 0:14:23.240 possibly Saint Juces in a couple of years. Whoever it is, right, 0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:25.240 whoever you gonna do, or maybe go find someone in 0:14:25.280 --> 0:14:26.400 free agency that you're looking for. 0:14:27.360 --> 0:14:28.680 You'll pick it a little in free agency. 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:31.040 Absolutely, And so I think like obviously the Montees one 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:33.880 makes it makes more sense to me from an organizational standpoint. 0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:35.800 I think it makes more sense to fans. I think 0:14:36.000 --> 0:14:38.040 fans see the chase thing and they're like a a 0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:41.120 compensatory third round, so basically a fourth round. Is this 0:14:41.240 --> 0:14:42.320 good value for him? 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:44.800 Well is it? Yeah? 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:46.720 Yeah, And let's talk about that a little bit because 0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:48.520 it's like he could walk at the end of the year, 0:14:48.560 --> 0:14:52.160 you could pay him, and so yeah, like do you 0:14:52.200 --> 0:14:54.360 think that that is Like what would you say to 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:56.200 a fan, It's like the value is not there. 0:14:56.240 --> 0:15:00.240 Come down and understand when you trade me in car, 0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:03.320 when you're training in the car with smiles on it, 0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:06.080 they usually give you what they want to give you 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:08.400 at the dealership, Right, but you're still gonna get your 0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:10.960 new car because that your old kuys of down payment 0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:12.000 on your new car. 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:15.280 So our down payment was a first fourth round pick. 0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:18.040 And what you don't know is what that fourth round 0:15:18.040 --> 0:15:19.520 pick gonna turn Who. 0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:21.040 Is gonna turn to? That's what I was saying, man, 0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:22.680 I mean, you really don't understand. You don't know what 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:25.080 the draft are going to have, you know, there for 0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:26.880 you around that time, you know what I mean. So 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:30.080 you can't really just jump the gun and say, well, 0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:33.120 it's not gonna be nobody valuable at that pick. Come on, 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:39.160 George picks you. That's talent. That's talent everywhere throughout the draft, 0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:41.240 and you can't look at it. And then you told 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:43.520 you also got to think about what is the value 0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:46.000 of that player right now? Yeah, I'm not hearing to 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:50.480 say that that Chase it's only a compensatory third third 0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:54.000 round pick value wise. But if you look at the injury, 0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:55.440 you don't know what you're really getting, you know what 0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:57.160 I'm saying. You look at what he you know he 0:15:57.240 --> 0:15:59.240 went through here as far as the injury and and 0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:01.160 all the things that have to happen to his knee 0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:04.240 for it to get back to normal. San fran don't 0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:05.560 know what they're picking up, you know what I mean. 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:08.760 So they have a bunch of I guess you could 0:16:08.760 --> 0:16:13.400
