Eric Gallen here 0:00:09.520 --> 0:00:13.600 in Indianapolis at the NFL scouting combine with old friend 0:00:13.760 --> 0:00:17.760 Adam Kaplan of serious ex M. How are you brother? 0:00:17.880 --> 0:00:21.520 This is great? It is great to be together, the 0:00:21.640 --> 0:00:24.720 festivities under way. Is good to be back. I'm really 0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:27.440 grateful after what we've all been through in our country 0:00:27.560 --> 0:00:30.200 just to be back here because this is and I 0:00:30.240 --> 0:00:32.320 love it. I was laughing. I was just doing radio 0:00:32.320 --> 0:00:35.080 before you and I got here, and I was saying, 0:00:35.080 --> 0:00:37.240 how I've been here nineteen years. I don't know any 0:00:37.640 --> 0:00:39.400 any streets, Seriously, I don't. I know, I've heard of 0:00:39.400 --> 0:00:41.879 Capital Avenue. I think this is where we are. I 0:00:42.000 --> 0:00:44.040 never I just know where I am. I know where 0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:45.800 to go. There's no where I can't get downtown. I 0:00:45.800 --> 0:00:47.839 know where everything is because it's looked the back of 0:00:47.880 --> 0:00:49.720 my hand. And the great thing about being down here 0:00:49.800 --> 0:00:53.959 is theres only like four streets and you could walk everywhere. 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:55.680 And as you know, the weather has been great this week. 0:00:55.800 --> 0:00:58.240 This has been the best weather. How many is this 0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:00.720 for you? I don't I don't want to be honest 0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:04.800 with you. It's been north of ten, it's probably yeah, yeah, 0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:07.360 it's uh, it's wonderful and it breaks my heart that 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:09.160 it's gonna move. Whether where do you think it's going 0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:12.880 next year? Nothing, I don't wanna say anything. It's definitely 0:01:12.880 --> 0:01:15.000 gonna happen where it's gonna move, but it's gonna be 0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:17.040 in l A at some point. But the league has 0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:20.399 open it up. Um. Several cities have bid, including in 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:22.600 the Annapolis by the way. And let me just tell 0:01:22.640 --> 0:01:25.560 you this, I would yeah, Jerry Jones love to have it. 0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:29.680 There is not one NFL person that I respect that 0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:32.959 wants it to move. They all wanted here. That the scouts, 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:36.880 personal directors, general managers, coaches love it. It's so even 0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:39.160 the guys out last love it because they know it 0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:43.360 like the back of your head. That's it's just fantastic. Here. 0:01:43.440 --> 0:01:47.280 You got everything you want. And unfortunately we realities that 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:49.360 the league it's gonna move at some point, and it 0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:50.880 can move as soon as next year. But it is 0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:53.080 what it is. We don't control that. I'm just glad 0:01:53.080 --> 0:01:55.400 that we're all back and it's, uh, it's so much 0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:57.600 fun being here. I gotta tell you, I didn't know 0:01:57.600 --> 0:01:59.320 what I missed it as much as I did. I'm 0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:03.000 kind of surprised, I said, I I'm getting a little 0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:05.800 sentimental because I just know what's gonna move. But cover 0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:09.440 this business for twenty one years, are you just know? Um? 0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:11.560 You just know the way that the league is like 0:02:11.639 --> 0:02:13.360 the super Balls on a rotation. I gather that the 0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:16.400 draft was I'm all not remember when the draft would 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:18.160 only be a massacre garden and the the announced it's going 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:21.720 to move. Okay, great, but this one's all about football. 0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:24.639 This is this is not this is different from from 0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:27.680 obviously being at the draft. Uh. I do miss it 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:29.320 at MSG, though I got it. Used to go for 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:33.000 many years. Was pretty cool. Yeah, and the forum over 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:36.320 there nextpounded square garden and some of the things that 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:40.120 I saw when Maurice Colourette was the last pick of 0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:42.280 the third round and erupted, the fans went out of 0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:45.520 their minds and um, my friends who were Jet fans 0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:49.280 who remember all enough to remember something craziness of the 0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:51.959 Jets draft. But we fast forward to now, and I 0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:54.520 love my man. Joe Douglas is doing a fantastic job 0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:57.600 build this thing up. Look at you making the transition. 0:02:57.760 --> 0:03:00.720 I think yesterday I loved it. See him Yeah, yeah, 0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:02.840 it's great. What was your interaction, like, you know what, No, 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:05.800 it's just basically I can almost fill the places. I 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:07.919 know the way he thinks. I knew this is coming. 0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:10.239 He said it right before his the end of his 0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:12.840 media interview. Well, you know what, Robert and I are 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:15.600 a line. It's we're always gonna buid with the offensive 0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:18.240 defensive lines. That's his philosophy got for Baltimore. And by 0:03:18.280 --> 0:03:20.920 the way, when he went to Philly, Howey Roseman had 0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:23.560 the same one. So it's just it's just funny, nothing changes, 0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:26.080 and that's the way you build that. It always gives 0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:28.280 you a chance. If you build on the if you 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:31.320 have depth on both lines and they're good players, you're 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:33.320 halfway there, and now they have the quarterback. You just 0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:35.920 continue to build. It's uh, Joe knows how to do it. 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:37.560 You cannot build through the draft. I mean, you can't 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:40.000 build through free to You gotta build through the draft 0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:42.160 and stuff went through free agency. That's that's what he's 0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:44.280 gonna do. I want to focus more on the draft, 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:48.960 but let's talk free agency really quickly. Just the approach. 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:51.280 What do the Jets have to get done? The legal 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:55.840 tampering period, begins March. You're talking about free up March. 0:03:57.080 --> 0:04:00.520 You have financial flexibility a little bit under fifth million 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:04.080 under the salary cap. If you keep number four and 0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:07.240 number ten, then you've got a lot of ten eleven 0:04:07.240 --> 0:04:09.760 million dollars there. Knowing Joe as I do, he's not 0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:12.000 gonna spending where to the plus fifty million dollars past phase. 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:13.840 Now they may extend a player too if he feels 0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.800 like that, it's times to do it, but he'll be 0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:19.480 smart about it. Look, do they do they need help? Yeah, 0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:21.800 Like we'll get into kind of work with the depth 0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:24.720 in the draft in a minute. But you're not gonna 0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:26.680 build your roster through free agency. But the good thing 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:30.760 is for some of their needs, uh we're talking about 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:32.320 this off, there's some of their needs they can meet 0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:35.040 for a free agency, but freecy just set you up 0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:38.160 for the draft. But Howry Roseman, Joe's former boss, made 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:41.360 a great point. You cannot think like, Okay, well we 0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:43.080 just fill this hole here in free agency. We don't 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:44.320 need to get it to the draft. If you see 0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:46.840 an upgrade, you take it. And I know Joe well 0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:48.560 enough to know that he's not going to pass up 0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:51.680 an upgrade for just because they have now quarterback. Okay, 0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:53.600 they're not drafting quarterback the first round. I think we 0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:59.040 know that, right. But if there, if there's an upgrade 0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:01.039 in the second round and be issue, you think you're good, 0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:02.960 you gotta take that. And that's just that's just the 0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:06.080 way it is. What's the sweet spot in terms of 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.000 financially free agency? I mean, obviously you want to fill 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:11.640 and fill some needs, but I'm talking about value because 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:16.080 if you're a player early, which the Jets us there 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:18.000 there indeed, of course they got in early, and there 0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:22.680 Carl Lawson, and if he's healthy and I wasn't there 0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:24.760 the day he got hurt. He's just talking to the Jets. 0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:29.240 Apparently he was phenomenal before he got hurt. Thee Achilles 0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:31.279 injury is is it's tough to come back from. But 0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:33.440 he'll come back from it. So you get him back, 0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:37.040 we'll see how he does. For free agency, it's there's 0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:39.279 one guy, Manuel Ogba, and then interest a bunch of 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:41.840 journeymen and mid level of guys by now o boys. 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:45.760 But on fortunes, he's really good. He's a he's he's 0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:48.880 a solid donned elite pass rusher, but he plays the run. 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:51.719 He's just a good football player. But you're gonna get it. 0:05:51.760 --> 0:05:53.720 And the good thing about the Jets for this draft is, 0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:56.240 and you talked about the draft capital, Uh, this is 0:05:56.279 --> 0:05:58.159 a good year to need a d n if you 0:05:58.200 --> 0:06:00.640 need one. Not a good year to need a quarterback. 0:06:00.760 --> 0:06:04.120 Thank goodness the Jets of Zack Wilson, because I'm telling 0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:06.560 you this is not a good year to need a quarterback. 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:09.000 Not good for free agency, not good for the draft, 0:06:09.000 --> 0:06:10.720 and church if you look for high level guys, this 0:06:10.760 --> 0:06:13.200 is not your draft. What do you think about possibly 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:17.200 resigning some of these guys in the house. Obviously Bragson Burials. 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:20.000 It's been a great stay out of nowhere. It broke 0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:21.920 out last year and that speaks to the development of 0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:24.279 the coaching staff, but also him taking advantage of his 0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:31.080 opportunities dynamic in the return game. Um, if he doesn't 0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:34.520 reach agreement with the Jets, is likely he's going to 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:36.159 go out there and test the market well to see 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:39.400 what happens. I'm really focused on the safety position for 0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:43.840 the Jets too, because LaMarcus Joiner got yeah, I got 0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:46.360 hurt Week one last year, so we didn't get an 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:49.080 opportunity to really see him play and then Marcus May 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:54.839 obviously restricted free agent. May May Scott some interests out there, 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:56.919 ye that you know, this is kind of what I 0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:58.840 hear from talking to other changes because they these a 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:00.520 guy's very talented. They just want to see how it 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:02.120 comes back from his injury. And this is where medical 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:04.200 is very important, as it is for the draft. By 0:07:04.200 --> 0:07:06.000 the way, this is the big part for folks out there. 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:10.920 Medicals is super huge to get correct information. But that's uh, 0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:14.040 you know that that's what this is about. But um, yeah, 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:16.400 Barrius is obviously a priority for them. You don't I 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:18.680 know Joe do Joe Douglass well enough to know that 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:21.000 you never walk away from talented players. Now you wanna 0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:23.560 you take him stupid money? And this guy's coming out 0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:26.360 of nowhere and having this crazy interesting year which you 0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:28.800 know no one expected. Now could he Now if they've 0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:31.680 put this on tape, can he duplicate that? And as 0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:34.120 the staff gets to know these players, that's another part 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:38.040 of free agency. I don't think fans understand when you 0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:40.160 have your own free agency yet. But you have a 0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:41.960 new staff, you know you you you don't have that 0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:44.360 much exposure to him. You have to learn them. And 0:07:44.400 --> 0:07:47.440 this is with Robert's staff out there back again. They 0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:52.160 use that that they say institutional knowledge. They have that tape. 0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:54.840 They were around them, around these players, and now they 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:56.640 kind of know. Okay, they give you know, they're around 0:07:56.720 --> 0:08:00.760 Joe Douglas. So they tell Joe rex Hogan, Joe Lieutenant, Okay, 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:02.480 this is what we saw, this is what we were 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:05.160 from around him. They have the practice and game tape, 0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:07.280 and then you know, they've got the reports and they 0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:08.880 have to make a decision on what the money should 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:13.920 look like. Las Uh has been a good story. Yeah, 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:17.760 man out of Connecticut, a real good run flogger. He's 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:20.880 been good inside the room. He's got an expiring contract, 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:26.280 um and then level free agent. Yeah, so we'll's see 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:30.280 what happens with him. Of course, and LDT, who the 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:34.720 Jets traded for. There you go, he came. He played 0:08:34.800 --> 0:08:37.920 very well for the Jets. So what anyone happened? What 0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:40.960 you know? I'm sure Jet fans know that the great 0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:44.240 Humantics like an arch. He's a special person. One of 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:48.800 the crazy scoops I had before that draft. Whatever year 0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:51.160 it came out, I can't remember. I was talking to 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.240 a good friend of mine then who was a scouting director. 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:54.839 He said, Man, the only problem with him as he 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.240 played Canadian football as college, we don't know what he 0:08:57.280 --> 0:09:00.319 can do with because the techniques are are different. Then 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:04.040 I gotta I gotta give Andy Reid and I gotta 0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:05.959 guess John Dorsey with the GM or the Chiefs. Then 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:08.200 they did a great job of scouting him and he's 0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:09.640 been a great story. And you know, he took the 0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:13.800 year off obviously for medical reasons, to help doing some 0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:16.679 great work. And he's back and look he's you know, 0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:17.839 as long as he still wants to play. He's a 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:20.480 little bit up there. But I'm certainly depth of the 0:09:20.520 --> 0:09:22.520 offensive line is Joe Douglas would tell you I Philly 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:25.280 is probably the best. No. One deeper on the offensive 0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:28.000 on the Eagles are like eleven deep the offensive line. 0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:30.200 Joe knows that and he knows swim his days with Baltimore. 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:33.199 You gotta have an offensive line. It was eye opening 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:35.560 when the Jets and the Eagles were practicing this song. 0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:37.560 So I was there for the two days. Yeah, you 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:39.920 can see that. You could see what the Eagles were 0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:43.520 bringing on the day. How about this, I mean, you 0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:45.480 guys don't know because Joe, Joe will continue to dress 0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:49.559 the offensive line. The Eagles have a rugby player who's 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:51.559 one of the top five left tackles in the league 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:54.160 during my lot of I just met at the combine. 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:57.760 I met the Super Bowl six eight, UM six eight 0:09:57.840 --> 0:10:00.480 three eight. I know he's a monster Mons, but you know, 0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:03.360 you guys know you gotta get your left tackle healthy. 0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:07.520 He's got to get his weight down. Um, you got 0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:11.400 very Tucker is gonna be stud. The Joe has to 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:13.160 just keep building. He needs a couple more guys that 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:15.360 he needs at least two guys. And Connor McGovern played 0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:17.640 well last year at the center position. L DT could 0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:20.679 be back. We'll have to see what happens that MOREA 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:24.679 Moses is another guy he's yeah, okay, So let's get 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:27.240 to the draft, number four, number ten overall, four picks 0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:31.439 in the top thirty eight. If you're a Jets fan, 0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:34.080 I know what I'm doing. Okay, go for it. Let's 0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:36.160 all Gardner. I'm not I'm turning the card in. Yeah, 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:39.400 best corner for this draft. I don't care what Joe 0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:42.320 thinks of the corners he has. They they don't have 0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:47.079 anyone half as good as his kid. He's an absolute superstar, clean, great, 0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:50.680 prospect at a University of Cincinnati tall run cover. His 0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:53.760 coverage numbers are absurd. You can't wait till ten to 0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:56.240 get him correct. No, he's going. It's funny you say 0:10:56.240 --> 0:10:58.280 that if you would ask me too much ago top 0:10:58.320 --> 0:11:01.160 twenty more. I did get more. I asked personnel people. 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:03.559 I trust this gets an absolute superstar. I'm telling you 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:07.240 you cannot no offense to the kids. Javelin, Gidry and 0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:11.280 all these guys that they know the Jets needed stud 0:11:11.320 --> 0:11:14.160 Okay that the Jet you build with blueship players. Um. 0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:18.160 Fascinating What came out of Robert Salace of Mouth this week. 0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:21.000 He talked to the media virtually he's not here. Jets 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:23.400 spent a lot of time with many of these prospects 0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:26.760 at Senior Bowl Mobile Alabama. But he was asked, hey, 0:11:26.760 --> 0:11:29.840 how can you help your young quarterback? He said, well, 0:11:30.240 --> 0:11:33.320 you all might be thinking offensively. I can help my 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:37.559 young quarterback by getting better defensibly. But did he elaborate 0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:40.480 how in terms of given more possessions if they can 0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:42.240 get off the field, well, Pastor shops, so you get 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:45.480 if you can get but just playing overall better defense, well, 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:48.720 also getting pet they need edge rushers that that to 0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:51.040 me is you know if you and I sat down 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:53.520 three of us ethan and uh, we'll get Chris.

I want a 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:05.880 leaf prospects. The Jets don't have an elite corner and 0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:08.960 even close to it. You you want to and then 0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:10.719 you gotta get at the add rushure fact. Okay, you 0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:15.520 give me an intrushure in the corner. That's what I want.

Wind Bett an official sports book and gave 0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:42.439 me partner of the New York Jets office up the 0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:44.400 change in terms of condition that wind bet dot com 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:46.000 must be twenty one or older in president in New 0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:48.040 Jersey if you're someone you know has a gambling problem 0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:51.480 called one seven zero seven one one seven. Okay, So 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:56.880 if you go Sauce in your scenario, Adam Caplin, take 0:12:56.920 --> 0:13:00.640 Sauce Gardner out of Cincinnati with the fourth or raw section. 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:03.480 Who the Jets come back, Who's gonna be a bell 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:06.720 will there? From edge rusher perspective at time, that's a 0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:09.400 good I don't know yet. I don't know yet. I 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:11.360 I'm not sure on the edge rushers if they go 0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:15.560 as high. Um. But my my dream scenario for the 0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:20.000 j E T S Jets, Jets Jets. I want an edge. 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.080 I want a corner. I want an edge. I want 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:24.840 an offensive lineman, a high end offensive lineman in the 0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:26.800 first couple of rounds who could come in and play 0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:32.480 right away. I want, you know what, I want a 0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:36.360 second edge rusher. I want a rotation because they're running there, 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:39.800 running wide nine Uh. I think they are forty three 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:43.200 front with the ends out. Yeah, you need you need, 0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:46.400 you need three or four guys. Um, We'll see what 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:49.439 follow at d tackle if they bring him back linebacker. 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:52.439 They need more guys. There's no question they need Jared 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:56.360 Davis is up. Uh, they need more linebackers. Yeah, I mean, look, 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:58.240 they've got a lot of work to do. Safety. As 0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:00.880 you mentioned, we don't know about Marcus May Ashton Davis 0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:03.560 is to stay on the field. He's had some injuries. 0:14:03.840 --> 0:14:06.760 Talented super athlete. Yeah, I mean they've got a lot 0:14:06.760 --> 0:14:09.199 of work to do. Defense is gonna look a lot 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:13.520 different if just starting with Lawson, if he be but again, 0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:16.080 well he'll be back, but you just don't know physically 0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:19.160 where he'll be, Like is he going to be sixty 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:21.720 or not? You just don't know. And talking to players 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:24.120 over the years, it generally takes the year year and 0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:25.720 a half to two years to come back fully from it. 0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:29.800 Hutcheson in Michigan, we've been all you think he's gone 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:32.920 after to whether it's one or two, I just don't 0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:37.520 think he is. He Okay, So let me put a two. 0:14:37.600 --> 0:14:41.240 Let me give you this scenario. If Hutchinson and Saucer 0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:45.400 there the rule of thumb as you take the addresser first. 0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:49.200 Now we could ask thirty two teams. They may have 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:51.440 a different answer because I don't know what Joe thinks 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:54.800 of that. But I'm a huge Sauce fan. But man, 0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:58.240 Hutchinson is such a good football player. But by the way, 0:14:58.240 --> 0:14:59.920 buff of needs, I don't care what the Jets take 0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:02.800 owner you get it, you get you get a stud 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:06.160 like Sauce Gardner. You're you're doing things because man if 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:08.800 if Laws could come back acent of what he was, 0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:12.360 and because you got the Jets have how many picks 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:14.600 do they have? Nine? Okay, they're in good shape there 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:16.480 and got a ton of cast space. You could take 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:19.280 the signal next level. Here's a good example. Okay, Philly Joe, 0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:22.520 Um Joe came in for seventeen. I think with Philly 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:25.080 and sixteen, Eagles were seven and nine. Doug Peterson's first 0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:29.320 year rosters, your staffage, they went, they didn't go hogwa 0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:32.160 They saw a ton of free ations. I've never they 0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:34.680 were ten for ten on the free agents are and 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:38.760 uh and their draft was Carson Wentz before you know, 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:41.760 before he tours a c L. He was fantastic in sixteen. 0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:44.960 I'm not saying that the Jets are gonna go from 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:46.920 where they were to to get in the Super Bowl, 0:15:47.280 --> 0:15:50.280 but to get to remember under seventeen game season. Now 0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:53.160 to get to seven, eight or nine wins, it's just 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:55.040 three hit on three or four draft picks. You can 0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:57.080 play right away. Do you want free and you run 0:15:57.120 --> 0:15:58.720 because you got the court. I'll tell you what I 0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:00.200 want to talk. We talk about tack us for a 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:02.800 little bit. Second half of the See, I was gonna 0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:05.120 get there at some point. You're gonna take it from 0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:07.480 I love that kid. He's got some jews, he's got 0:16:07.480 --> 0:16:09.800 some moxie, he's tough as hell. He's an athlete, he's 0:16:09.800 --> 0:16:11.720 got an arm. He just had to take a little 0:16:11.760 --> 0:16:13.800 bit off his fastball. Because that's what Joe Flacco told 0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:17.520 me many years ago. He struggled the first couple of years. Yeah, 0:16:17.560 --> 0:16:19.560 because he could. He didn't. He had never been asked 0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:21.800 to do it. Yeah, And it took him a while 0:16:21.880 --> 0:16:24.160 to do it. And it just takes time. And you 0:16:24.160 --> 0:16:26.240 you gotta coach up, you know, guy, coach guys up. 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:29.120 And you think he's gonna look like a different player 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:30.720 in here two. Yeah, because you're gonna build up what 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:34.840 he did in the second half, and he's being coached hard. 0:16:34.880 --> 0:16:37.080 I know that that Kavanaugh still there, right, I think 0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:41.800 um not not. I think his contract expired Rob Calbaries 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:44.760 Calgary right right, right, right right, And Calbaries did a 0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:47.480 great job by the way in Mobile, Alabama where they 0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:51.920 had the staff elevation opportunity for the Jets and UM 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:54.920 and just you know, the coaching is good. I like 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:58.160 the staff. Just you know, I know Jets Jet fans 0:16:58.160 --> 0:16:59.440 are sick of being patient. But you know what, you've 0:16:59.440 --> 0:17:01.760 been patient, law enough. You got a good GM is 0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:04.520 really Sharper knows what he's doing. Just he's gonna build 0:17:04.600 --> 0:17:07.560 the right way it because once he gets it what 0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:09.840 it over like a five year period he goes because 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:11.480 they always Joe will tell you. I think he talked 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:13.320 about I know what the Scott Fitterer, the GM and 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:15.520 the Pethers talking about this. So he's about three years out. 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:20.000 This is Joe's third draft, right, yes, okay, um first 0:17:20.000 --> 0:17:23.240 one second one right right right. Well that's another important 0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:25.040 point because you have to learn their schemes. But I 0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:30.359 saw start to this discussion you and are having about 0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:33.400 that what they need because every new staff alert they 0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:34.880 have to learn each other. And look at what these 0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:37.439 guys did together last year. You mentioned how hi you 0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:39.919 are on Zach Wilson, but you took Elijah Vera Tucker 0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:43.560 Joe to get him by and by the way, how 0:17:43.600 --> 0:17:49.480 about my my guy more more even games. He's gonna 0:17:49.480 --> 0:17:53.239 be stunt now I did in the fourth Yeah, you know, 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:56.360 I know, Joe what Joe? What's this? Joe said, what's 0:17:56.359 --> 0:18:00.600 his nickname? What's it? Hey? What? No? No know Michael 0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:03.640 Carter's nickname? What do you called me? Young? I didn't 0:18:03.640 --> 0:18:05.680 know that was the nickname? No, But I'd like to 0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:09.520 see them get size running back to compliment because I 0:18:09.520 --> 0:18:13.000 know why You're always gonna do that here, have to, Yeah, 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:16.639 you have to because Carter. Ye, he's explosive. Yeah, I 0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:18.680 gotta get him out in space, no doubt, no doubt 0:18:18.680 --> 0:18:21.200 about it. But need a tight end. That's the other thing. Man. 0:18:21.240 --> 0:18:23.920 That's and I like what you can see them address 0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:26.800 end free agency and the draft correct, well draft, perhaps 0:18:26.800 --> 0:18:28.240 if you don't dress it this year in the draft, 0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:29.800 you'll never do it. They're like eight guys, eight to 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:33.200 ten guys. But I like what Joe said, and that's important. Note. 0:18:33.240 --> 0:18:35.480 I'm really glad he said this in his interview earlier 0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:38.400 this week with the media. My job is to help 0:18:38.400 --> 0:18:41.879 our quarterback, and you do it by getting more past targets. 0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:44.920 You can't run the West Coast offense which they run 0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:47.400 without a stud tight end. You have to go get 0:18:47.400 --> 0:18:50.880 a tight end. You just have to Um Shoultz out 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:53.280 there from Dell is gonna have a lot of uns, 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:56.119 gonna be a big number. Yeah, he's multiple suit. His 0:18:56.240 --> 0:18:59.639 agent Steve Characters the tight end agent. He's got zach Ertz. 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:03.240 He's got Dolcinch from U C. L A. He get 0:19:03.600 --> 0:19:07.760 uh the tight end with the with the Browns. I 0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:09.840
