But it's also I don't know, 12 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: we had some real stuff to talk about. 13 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 2: I know we did well. 14 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: You got annoyed with the kickers. 15 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 2: This is not the show I wanted to do today, Alex. 16 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna I'm just gonna come right out and 17 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 2: say it. This was not the show I wanted to 18 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 2: do today. I wanted to do a show where we 19 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 2: were both checking our phones every five minutes. Yep off. Well, 20 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 2: I wanted to do a show that Brandon Nayuku was 21 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 2: a patriot. But I would have said for doing a 22 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,479 Speaker 2: show where Brandon Nyuk might be a patriot, could could 23 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 2: still be a patriot. There was still hope in the 24 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 2: air that he could be a Patriot doing a show. 25 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 2: After late last night, Adam Schefter tweets out that the 26 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 2: Patriots have removed themselves from the Brandon Nyuk sweepstakes. It's 27 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 2: not the show I wanted to do. You know, there's 28 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 2: like a common and I don't think that this show 29 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 2: falls under this category because people know where our allegiances are. Yeah, 30 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: but there's this common thing that like the media likes 31 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 2: it when the team is bad, right, or they like 32 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,119 Speaker 2: it when things like this happen that they can rag 33 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 2: on the team about. That's not this show. This show 34 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 2: would love to have Brandon Nyuk as a New England 35 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: Patriot and would love to be talking about the prospects 36 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: of Brandon Nyuk being a New England Patriot. And that's 37 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: not where we're at. That's how where we're at. And 38 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 2: I want to lay out the facts of the case 39 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 2: here quickly because this is right off the top of 40 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 2: the show. We're getting right into it. 41 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: I think people have it right up to attend with this. 42 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying don't be disappointed. You can be disappointed, 43 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: but I'm disappointed. I think people have lost sight of 44 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: the bigger picture. 45 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 2: Okay, we'll get to we'll get to that. Taken a 46 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 2: second because I want to see where you're going with that. 47 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 2: But I want to lay out the facts because right now, 48 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 2: understandably so, there are a lot of upset people that 49 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: this fell through. I get it. The other night, I 50 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 2: was asleep, I went to bed early. It's training camp. 51 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: I was tired. I had like six text messages from 52 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 2: you in the morning when I woke up at six 53 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 2: point thirty telling me that Brandon Nayuk might be a Patriot. 54 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: It's actually happening. I tweeted out that the gift from 55 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 2: the office of you know, Michael Scott running around It's okay, 56 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: it's happening, right. And the report was it was the 57 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 2: Browns and the Patriots that were at the top of 58 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 2: the list in the pursuit of Brandon Nayuk. And unfortunately, 59 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 2: fact number one to me is that the Patriots and 60 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 2: the Browns were used as leverage. The Patriots and Browns 61 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 2: were leaked that they were had frameworks of deals in 62 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 2: place with the San Francisco forty nine ers to see 63 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 2: if there was anybody else that would throw their hat 64 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 2: in the ring at the last second. 65 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: That. 66 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 2: Frankly, I thought all along that this was coming from 67 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 2: my yuch side in Ayuk's camp, because I don't think 68 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 2: he wants to be a Patriot Ora Brown. 69 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 3: No. 70 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: He Here's what's crazy, he said two months ago on 71 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Clark's podcast, if he didn't play for the Niners, 72 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: he wanted to play for the commanders of the Steelers. 73 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: I still don't know why the commanders weren't all over this. 74 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, but my guess is that my guess is that 75 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: that was what the leverage play was was they were 76 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 2: already engaged at some point with Pittsburgh, it sounds like, 77 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 2: and then we're re engaged after this first report came 78 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 2: out that the Patriots and the Browns had deals in 79 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 2: place with San Francisco pending an extension for Brandon Nayuk. 80 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 2: And then what happens is that you leak out there 81 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 2: through one of your guys, you know, your local guys, 82 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 2: like a reser, tom In or something like that, that 83 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 2: there's interest in the Browns and the Patriots have frameworks 84 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 2: of deals, and then all of a sudden, guess who 85 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 2: comes back around twelve hours later, the freaking Pittsburgh Stealers, Right, 86 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 2: they come out of nowhere again and they're like, Okay, 87 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,919 Speaker 2: we're going to jump back into this race. This is 88 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: really where he wants to go. So here's the facts 89 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 2: of the case. The fact number one is that the 90 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 2: Patriots reportedly had a framework of a trade done with 91 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 2: San Francisco. This was not about compensation with the forty 92 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 2: nine ers. They had the deal done. The other fact is, 93 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 2: now this report, the exact number in figures aren't necessarily 94 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 2: out there, but I trust Mike Greece, and he said 95 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 2: that the Patriots were willing to make Brandon Niuk a 96 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: top five paid receiver in the NFL. 97 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, And there were other reports that had them north 98 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: at twenty eight million dollars a year. 99 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 2: Yeah. Josina Anderson just said that she had heard twenty 100 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,679 Speaker 2: eight point five. I've heard already somewhere in the twenty 101 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 2: eight to thirty million dollar. 102 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: Range, which is legitimate. I mean, that would make him. 103 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 2: A legitimate a legitimate offer. 104 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: That's just shy of Justin Jefferson, which is about I 105 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: never expected them to break the Justin Jefferson. 106 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's about what Tyreek killed in his restructured contract, 107 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 2: just got with the Miami diach so competitive market value 108 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 2: contract for Brandon Nyuk. And guess what, Brandon Nyuk does 109 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 2: not want to come to New England. He doesn't want 110 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 2: to be here. And Adam Schefter added to it and said, 111 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 2: you know, this morning, I think it was in a 112 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 2: clip that I had seen that the Patriots got that 113 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 2: vibe in the negotiation that they were going to Brandon 114 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 2: Nyuk's people, his agent, and there just wasn't a whole 115 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: lot of back and forth. There was a whole lot 116 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: of traction to the contract talks, almost on purpose, to 117 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 2: the point that they kind of felt like, he doesn't 118 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: really want to be here. So we're negotiating against a 119 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 2: brick wall, right. This is a one sided negotiation because 120 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 2: the other side doesn't really want to play ball. So 121 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 2: this is where the Patriots are at. The Patriots are 122 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 2: in a position now where they need by on the 123 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: field results. They need to make themselves an attraction again. Yep, 124 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 2: they need to make themselves appealing again. Because a Uke 125 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 2: had leverage, he does not need to sign an extension. 126 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 2: He essentially has a no trade clause, right because no 127 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 2: team is giving up the package the forty nine ers 128 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 2: are asking for without an extension in place with the player. 129 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: And I think that's why the Patriots pulled out. That's 130 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: just kind of what it sounded like. Is Brandon and you, 131 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 1: you know, would have I mean, like you say, he 132 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: had no trade clause, he would have come here. But 133 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: you're not going to trade for him without to guarantee 134 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: the extension. If his team comes to you and says, yeah, okay, 135 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: make the trade and then we'll see from there, you 136 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: can't make that trade without a guaranteed extension. 137 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 2: No, this was all these trade terms that were agreed 138 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 2: to or contingent on Brandon and you signing an extension. 139 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: No extension, no trade. It's that simple. So I don't 140 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: want to hear it about money. I don't want to 141 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 2: hear it about compensation. This was a decision made by 142 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 2: the player that he does not want to be a Patriot. 143 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 2: And when I say I don't want to hear about 144 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 2: it the money or the compensation, that's not letting the 145 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 2: team off the hook. They they don't. They are not 146 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 2: attracting people right A. Brandon Nyuk's caliber and Calvin Ridley's caliber, 147 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 2: even though they're I think in different tiers but similar situations. 148 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: They're not attracting players you name brand players of that 149 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 2: caliber because of the situation that they're in as a team. 150 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: And I know a lot of Patriots fans and my 151 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 2: mentions I'm sure in yours too. Well, Why the Pittsburgh Steelers, 152 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 2: I couldn't tell you. I don't. 153 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: I it's Tomlin. 154 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 2: Tomlin, the fact that they won ten games last year 155 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 2: and we're in the playoffs, the fact that they never 156 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 2: have a losing season, and they're always sort of in 157 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: the mix in the AFC, even if they're not a 158 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 2: true and Super Bowl contender. But I'm not Brandon Nyuk. 159 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 2: I can't read his mind. But the point is is 160 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 2: that he is telling you that Pittsburgh is a more 161 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 2: desirable destination. Calvin Ridley told you Tennessee is a more 162 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 2: desirable destination. Until that changes, you are going to be 163 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: leverage and that stakes. 164 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: Despite and despite with the cry babies on Twitter will 165 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: tell you that can change. Yeah, I mean a lot 166 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: of things have to happen for that to change, but 167 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: that can change. Look, they're a four win team with 168 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: an unproven defensive head coach an uncertainty at quarterback. Two 169 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 1: of those things can change. Sereon Mayo is always gonna 170 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: be a defensive head coach. But if you win some games, 171 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: Drake may shows you something and maybe, like Alex van Pelt, 172 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 1: that offensive system picks up some steam. Yeah, you're gonna 173 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: get the attention wide receivers. This comes down to whatever 174 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: thing comes down to for the Patriots right now. Can 175 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: Drake May be the guy? Yes? Or no? And Drake 176 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: May doesn't even have to be great. I go back 177 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: to and Evan, you know how much it kills me 178 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: to do this. Buffalo Josh Allen was not established when 179 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: they made that. He started showing some flashes. He was 180 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: in the second half, he was he had good moments. 181 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, but he was touchdowns okay, but the error was 182 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 2: pointed upward. 183 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 1: But it was flashes. It wasn't anything definitive. 184 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:17,719 Speaker 2: Yeah there was. 185 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: There's no way that he wasn't what he is now. 186 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: But this is my point. All you need is Drake 187 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: made a flash. Yeah, all you need is Drake made it. 188 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,959 Speaker 1: Just flash. He doesn't have to win Rookie of the 189 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: Year and you build some traction and now there's interest. 190 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 1: But again it comes down to what everything comes down 191 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: for the Patriots. Is Drake made the guy or not? 192 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: If he is, Wide receivers want to want to play 193 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: with him. If he's not the guy, they have bigger 194 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: problems than simply needing to get another number one wide 195 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: receiver because you got to reset this whole thing again 196 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: if he's not the guy. Yeah, that's what it comes 197 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: down to. 198 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 2: It's such a tough spot to be in because you 199 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 2: need to build equity around the league and show these 200 00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 2: star players that you're building something promising here. But you 201 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 2: have to do it essentially just through the draft and 202 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 2: through within because you're not attracting the players yet. 203 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 3: Right. 204 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 2: It's like a chicken or the egg type of thing 205 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 2: where you don't have the equity built to sign a 206 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 2: big name free agent like Calvin Ridley or make a 207 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 2: big splash trade like Brandon Aiyuk, but you don't have 208 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 2: the talent to be a playoff team to show that spark. 209 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: But you also don't have the equity to make the 210 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 2: trades that give you the talent, Right, So it's a 211 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 2: tough spot to be in. 212 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 1: So that comes down to player development. Yeah, the guys 213 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: that you drafted, the guys that you have here, can 214 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: you develop them and maximize them? 215 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? The last point I want to make on this, 216 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 2: and then I'm sure, we'll talk about this throughout the show. 217 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 2: The other point I wanted to make on this was 218 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 2: we've talked a lot about on the show about when 219 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 2: is the right time to make this trade, and this 220 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 2: would be in our timelines that we've thrown out there, 221 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 2: the bills and digs in Alan hurts an aj brown 222 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 2: to a in Tyreek, like, whatever combination you want to 223 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 2: look at is probably a year or two earlyer than 224 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 2: those teoms. 225 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: It's it's acceptable, but it's definitely like the earliest it 226 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: would be right. 227 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 2: And for the most part we've discussed that as well. 228 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: You got to see what the quarterback is. 229 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: And you want a quarterback is what Polk is, what 230 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: Baker is, where your draft picks end up. 231 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, like you want to see how it kind of 232 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 2: festers here, like how kind of builds here. The other 233 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 2: element of it that maybe deserves talking about in this 234 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 2: situation is that you also make yourself more desirable, right, 235 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 2: like if the quarterback starts to pan out and the 236 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 2: situation starts to look better. So maybe the reason why 237 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 2: these trades don't go down in the off season before 238 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 2: the rookie season of the quarterback that you just drafted 239 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 2: third overall is because to Brandon Nyuk, as much as 240 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 2: I might disagree with it, based off of watching Russell 241 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 2: Wilson and Justin Fields play last year, Russell Wilson and 242 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 2: Justin Fields are names that Brandon Nyuk recognizes, right. Those 243 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 2: are names of guys that have played in the league. Obviously, 244 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 2: in Justin Fields's case, have really decorated college player that 245 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 2: every those guys all know about. You know. Similarly with Cleveland, 246 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson's not the same Deshaun Watson that he was 247 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 2: in Houston or at Clemson or whatever, but Deshaun Watson 248 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 2: is a name brand quarterback in this league. The Patriots 249 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 2: need to get to a point where their operation is 250 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 2: viewed in those similar categories. And that might also be 251 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 2: why you can't move up the timeline on this type 252 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 2: of trade. You might need a year or two to 253 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 2: make this happen first, Like if you're lucky, you're a 254 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 2: team like the Houston Texans that do it in the 255 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 2: year and then Stefan Diggs comes in year two. But 256 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: you might it might be two years from now before 257 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 2: they truly are an attraction to the point where they 258 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 2: can land a guy like I. 259 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 1: Know, people don't want to hear this, but it's about patients. 260 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: And I've seen people say, well, it's been five years 261 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: they've been trying to do this. Not really, it's been 262 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: six months. Yeah, the last guy tried, Bill tried and 263 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: he missed. And I think this is a different approach. 264 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: I can't imagine Bill ever offering a receiver thirty million 265 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: dollars a year, so they missed on their first one. 266 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: You know, I'd see people throwing out terms interest kings 267 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: and things like that. It's not we're not remotely there yet. 268 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 1: We're not remotely there. And with this reminds me of 269 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: a little bit. And I text you about this last night. 270 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: I think I texted about this last night like I had, 271 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, a bunch of Celtics fans going off 272 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: on the Patriots for this and call them like interest 273 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 1: kings and they just they're always talking about making a deal, 274 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: but they never make a deal. How many years did 275 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: the Celtics sit there and just hype up the nets 276 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: picks h and it was Jimmy Butler and it was 277 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 1: Anthony Davis and it was DeMarcus Cousins, right, GWHI Leonard 278 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: and they never did anything And people got on them 279 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,079 Speaker 1: for not making the move and then would happen. And 280 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's going to be exactly the same. 281 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: I don't think like Jay, you know, will the Patriots 282 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 1: Jay's Jalen Polk and Javon Baker he as good as 283 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: the Celtics J's I don't know. But the point is 284 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: just because they haven't made the move doesn't mean they'll 285 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 1: never make the move. And look the Celtics once they 286 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 1: kind of got there, they started getting more aggressively. Oh 287 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: they've never signed a big name wide receiver. You're right 288 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: they haven't. Well, it's because they haven't until they've done it. 289 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: They'll never trade for a big. 290 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 2: Name Well, this is usually me finger waggon. 291 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: They haven't until they do. 292 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 4: No. 293 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: But like I hate this is a general pet peeve 294 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: I have of the way people talk about sports that 295 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: because something's happened, it will never happen. The Cubs won 296 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: the World Series, Okay, Leo DiCaprio, it's not sports. Leo 297 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: DiCaprio won an oscar, That college football EA video game 298 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: came back. Like things change, that's life. We live in 299 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: an ever changing world. Embrace it. Who is like the 300 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: Bills never made a splash move for a wide receiver 301 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: until they traded for Stefan Diggs. Yeah, it is fair 302 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: to point out that they have to this point struggled 303 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: to make this move that most teams can make that 304 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: is a very beneficial move. That is a fair criticism 305 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: absolutely to use this And this is where what I 306 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: forget exactly what I said at the top of the 307 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: show about I think people are putting the car before 308 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: the horse here and maybe getting too carried away. It 309 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: is fair to say that they haven't been able to 310 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: land the plane. It is fair to say they've not 311 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: been able to get the fish in the boat. And 312 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: these kind of moves happen all the time in the NFL, 313 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: and they've come up short. Now this front office has 314 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: come up short once, if you want to say the 315 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: organization has come up short three times in the last 316 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: two years, between DeAndre Hawkins, Calvin Ridley now Brandon Ayuk. 317 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: That is a fair criticism to say it will never happen. Yeah, 318 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: because Brandon Ayuk in this one instance, chose not to 319 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: come to New England. You're just looking for something to 320 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: whine about at that point. That's the reality of it, 321 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: because all it takes. All it takes is Drake May 322 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: showing little flash and the conversation completely changes. Things change 323 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: fast in the NFL. Don't be surprised if it happens again. 324 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: And the efforts there, and the efforts the right and 325 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: we know now thirty million dollars on the table willing 326 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: to part the top fifty draft pick. All of that, 327 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: we know the mentality is there. 328 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to talk about the mentality really quickly, 329 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 2: but before we do, Hey, Patriots fans, if you want 330 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 2: to see Toyota's best offers, including those not seen on TV, 331 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 2: go to buy a Toyota dot com. It's Toyota's official 332 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 2: website for deals from the official vehicle of the New 333 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 2: England Patriots, Toyota. Let's go places, easy to drink, easy 334 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 2: to enjoy, bud Light, the official beer sponsor of the 335 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 2: New England Patriots. I kind of needed a beer after 336 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: that chefter tweet. Mentality. I want to talk about that 337 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 2: real quickly as we put a bow on this, and 338 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: then we'll talk camp and tomorrow night and all that 339 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 2: kind of stuff. The interesting thing I find about the 340 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 2: mentality is that Elliott Wolf, his two mentors, Bill and 341 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 2: his father, and neither one of them were known for 342 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 2: being this aggressive in terms of veteran additions, and especially 343 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 2: being this aggressive at the wide receiver position. The Packers 344 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 2: drafted receivers all the time, but they didn't. The Packers 345 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 2: don't take part in free agency notorious. They don't bring 346 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 2: in external additions often. Maybe once in a blue moon 347 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 2: they might bring in a Reggie White like I think 348 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 2: was his dad's big move, right, and he traded for 349 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 2: far But it's a different quarterbacks different But every once 350 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 2: in a while those things would happen when it would 351 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 2: put them over the top, you know, the Patriots signing 352 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 2: Darrell Reeves, the Patriots signing Stefan Gilmour, like those moves 353 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 2: to help them put them over the top as a 354 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 2: roster to a Super Bowl contender. But they are not 355 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 2: aggressive spenders in this sense. They'll resign guys that deserve extensions, 356 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 2: but they're not aggressive spenders. I find it interesting that 357 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 2: in his first offseason at the helm of a football operation, 358 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 2: a job that he's been building towards for his entire life, 359 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 2: that he is bucking all the trends of the Packer 360 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 2: way and the Patriot way. And I'm not saying I 361 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 2: don't like it or against it or anything like that. 362 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 2: But he's his own guy, Like this is not this 363 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: is not Ron Wolfe. 364 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not. It's a different league than Ron Wolfe 365 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: was in. It's really a different league than Prime Bill 366 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,120 Speaker 1: Belichick was in. Right, it's it's a wide receiver dictated 367 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: league or not dictated. 368 00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 2: But cascam dictator. 369 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 1: Right. We know Matt grow is big on this, and 370 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: they never got the deal done, but he had talked 371 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: about in the past recognizing the importance of getting these 372 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 1: playmakers on your offense. So I wonder if it's just 373 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: two younger guys that grew up in a different NFL 374 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: taking what they've known in the past. And I guess 375 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: it could just be wolf but like a guy that 376 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: you know, he learned what he learned growing up. But 377 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: also recognizing that, like I said before, the NFL changes, 378 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,199 Speaker 1: the NFL changes a lot. The game is not what 379 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: it was ten years ago. It's really kind of moved 380 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 1: on from what it was even five years ago. And 381 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 1: understanding that those old core philosophies may work, but at 382 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 1: the end of the day, you do need to make 383 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: adjustments to keep up with the times. 384 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just there was a chance, and my guess 385 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 2: is that it's a combination of things. I agree with 386 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 2: you wholeheartedly that it's that is probably number one. That 387 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 2: it's a different league, it's a different time, all those 388 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 2: kinds of things. I also do think that there is 389 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 2: pressure is probably the wrong word, but there is urgency 390 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 2: on the part of ownership to put this team back 391 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 2: on the map in a good way, in a positive way, 392 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 2: and that's not going to happen the draft and develop approach, 393 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 2: even though that's the right way for sustainability, that's not 394 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 2: going to make it happen in a short period of time. 395 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 2: That's gonna be we're gonna be talking about, you know, two, three, 396 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 2: four years from now them being a contender, whereas I 397 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 2: feel like the Crafts would And this is just my 398 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 2: two cents, it's not informed or anything, but I just 399 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 2: feel like their timeline is they would like it to 400 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 2: be quicker than that. Everybody would like it to be 401 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 2: quicker than that. So the way to do that is 402 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 2: obviously to add proven commodity players to the roster along 403 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 2: with drafting and developing and doing it the quote unquote 404 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,959 Speaker 2: right way as we often hear. But the Packers were 405 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 2: a draft and developed team. They were built from within 406 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 2: type of team. They weren't a free agency team, they 407 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 2: weren't a splash trade team, and neither really was Bill 408 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 2: and so it's just interesting that that's not at all 409 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 2: what Elliot Wolf's approach has been. Hasn't landed the plane, 410 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 2: but that's not at all what his approach has been. 411 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 2: So that's Brandon Aiyuk. That kind of sets the tone 412 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 2: for the day on that. We'll obviously take calls, questions, 413 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 2: all that about it moving forward if he's won as well. 414 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 2: So I'm sure we'll circle back to Brandon Aiyuk. But 415 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 2: I also think that, you know, the more important stuff. 416 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 2: Now that this is over, it turns the page to 417 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 2: training camp and what we've seen over the last week 418 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 2: since the last time we did the show, and then 419 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 2: of course tomorrow night the first dress rehearsal against the 420 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 2: Carolina Panthers right here a Jillette Stadium with the Patriots 421 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 2: and the Panthers, which Drod Mayo said, everybody's gonna play. 422 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 2: That's healthy, and Jacoby Brisset is probably gonna play a 423 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 2: little bit. It sounds like it's gonna start the game 424 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 2: and Drake May is going to play. I expect Drake 425 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 2: May to play a lot, so for a lot of 426 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 2: you guys that haven't been able to get out the camp, 427 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 2: this will be the first opportunity for the people to 428 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 2: see Drake May in a Patriot uniform and watch him play, 429 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 2: which will be interesting. I want to reset our quarterback 430 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 2: thoughts and where we stand right now with that. And 431 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 2: I guess there's really not much to say about Brissett. 432 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say, you know, kind of know what he is, 433 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 2: and he's been as advertised in these camp practices, whether 434 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 2: it's just being a functional, serviceable veteran stop gap and 435 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 2: just a great dude honestly, Like I know, nobody really 436 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 2: cares about that, but he he matters. He matters, And 437 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 2: I said he didn't. I apologize to him for that. 438 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,479 Speaker 2: I shouldn't have said that, you know, I didn't. I 439 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 2: wasn't familiar with your game, as they like to say, 440 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 2: so I'm sorry. 441 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: Last week Flgar for doing the same thing. 442 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 2: No, I got mad at Felger because Felger told me 443 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 2: that Jacoby Brissett was trash for weeks on end, I 444 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 2: said on one of our live PU shows during training 445 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 2: camp that I didn't care about Jacoby Brissett in the 446 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 2: prism of training camp to me, was all about evaluating 447 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 2: Drake May and I could really care. 448 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: Less, Okay, right not. 449 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 2: I you know, I think that Jacobyberseet can play a 450 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 2: little bit. I've always said that about you know, his 451 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 2: Brown season and two twenty two and uh, if you 452 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 2: look at the numbers and you look at the tape 453 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 2: from that season, it's it's better than people think it is. 454 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's great. I'm not saying you're gonna 455 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 2: win Super Bowl. I'm not saying that he's gonna win 456 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 2: ten to eleven games for you this year. But it's certainly 457 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 2: better than the quarterback play they've gotten here over the 458 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:17,640 Speaker 2: last two years. 459 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 460 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 2: And that's exactly how I feel about about Jacoby Brissett 461 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 2: with Drake May though. And I know you're gonna tell me, 462 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 2: you know, learn your lessons, slow down, YadA, YadA, YadA. 463 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 2: Let's see what it looks like tomorrow night. It's a 464 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 2: big test for him, yep, in a game setting. If 465 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 2: it comes apart tomorrow night, then I'll change my tune. 466 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 2: Subject to change. But we're trending towards that point of 467 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 2: the summer where I would just like to see him 468 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 2: with starters against starters, and it's almost just as important 469 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 2: to see him against starters as it is with Yeah, 470 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 2: we're at the point now where it looks like he's 471 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,360 Speaker 2: starting to stack days where the results aren't always perfect, 472 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 2: and you know when people tweet out the training camp 473 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 2: stats there, you know it's it's sometimes uneven, you know, 474 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 2: five of eleven, six for twelve, whatever the number is. 475 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 2: But the eye test, he looks like he's seeing it 476 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 2: a little bit better. Is the ball's coming out a 477 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 2: little bit quicker, He's a little bit more confident. You 478 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 2: can actually see him kind of going through reads and 479 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 2: recognizing things pre snap a little bit faster. I've liked 480 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 2: what I've seen out of him from let's call it 481 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 2: the last three or four practices in that regard, and 482 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 2: that was really what we were talking about in terms 483 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 2: of the development, was between the years, you know, processing, 484 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,959 Speaker 2: decision making, anticipation, timing, rhythm, all that kind of stuff. 485 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 2: I feel like he's he's coming along in those regards, 486 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 2: and at some point he has had a mix of 487 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 2: rosterable receivers that he's throwing to. You know, Baker is 488 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 2: out there with him, Polk is out there with him. 489 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 2: On occasion, Pop is out there with him. So it's 490 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 2: not like he's always going to back end to the 491 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 2: roster guys. But he doesn't have usually have Hunter Henry 492 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 2: because Hunter Henry gets his work in with the ones 493 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 2: and then and then sits it sits out, and he 494 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 2: doesn't have Remondree in the backfield. I would just and 495 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 2: he most importantly, he doesn't have the starting offensive line. 496 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: Which is really the backup offensive line. Yeah, he's been 497 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: working with the backup offensive line, which is really the 498 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: third offensive line. 499 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 2: Right, and we already know on this team. It's a 500 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: great point. We already know on this team that offensive 501 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 2: line depth is an issue. Right, So think about not 502 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 2: only does he not have this the quote unquote starting 503 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: offensive line, he's now working with the backup. 504 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: Working with guys that probably won't be on the team. 505 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, in a lot of cases, like Leyden Robinson will 506 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 2: be here as a draft pick. And you know, there 507 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 2: have been times recently where like Leverett has subdi because 508 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 2: the snaps have just been disastrous and they they've needed that. 509 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 2: You know, we talk a lot about yesterday the reports 510 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 2: out of practice, A lot of them were start looked 511 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 2: really good. You know, had that one drive where he 512 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 2: was getting the ball out quick and hitting Jalen Rager 513 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,120 Speaker 2: underneath and taking profits and marching the offense a little bit. 514 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 2: And he had a fantastic seven on seven run which 515 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 2: I don't really care about at this point, like, but 516 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,959 Speaker 2: it existed. And then we got into the hurry up 517 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 2: or the one minute or whatever you want to call it, 518 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 2: and the the wheels came off right, you know, he 519 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 2: came off the rails. But when he really break down 520 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 2: what happened in that hurry up sequence, and I know 521 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 2: people always making excuses again whatever the hurry up offense. 522 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 2: There's two drops in there. There's a bad snap that 523 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 2: got the center replaced that a delay game, which tells 524 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 2: you that it was the center because they yanked him 525 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 2: right away. And the pick that he threw was like 526 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 2: a bang bang play where he went through Javon Baker's 527 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 2: hands and then tipped up in the air and like 528 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 2: it was just one of those plays. It wasn't like 529 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,159 Speaker 2: I thought he made a terrible read and threw the 530 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 2: ball right to it right. There's so much context, is 531 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 2: my point in all some of these reps that if 532 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 2: he's with the starters, if he's with the ones who 533 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 2: have looked like they've clicked a little bit and are 534 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 2: coming into a rhythm at times and practice like maybe 535 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 2: all of these little blips of it are along along 536 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 2: the way, don't look as bad if the ball is 537 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 2: not going right through people's hands and things like that, right, right, So, 538 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 2: I'm not telling you that I'm ready to annoint him 539 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 2: as the starter yet I've learned I'm getting there. But 540 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 2: he's at the point now where I feel like, if 541 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 2: he has a good performance tomorrow night in the preseason game, 542 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 2: he's earned the right to at least see what it 543 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 2: looks like with him with the starters. That doesn't mean 544 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 2: you have to bench cover like, doesn't mean you have 545 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 2: to change course, right It just for right now, it's 546 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 2: it's probably worth a look that. And That's kind of 547 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 2: where I'm at with drag Man. I'm just encouraged by 548 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 2: the timing and the rhythm and the processing seem to 549 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 2: be faster, quicker, be more in sync of what you 550 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 2: would want out of an NFL quarterback than what they 551 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,880 Speaker 2: were let's say this time a week and a half ago. 552 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you use the word earned in there. I 553 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: think that's the big I think that's the big one. 554 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: I think that that's the important term because you do 555 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 1: have to earn starts. You do have to earn reps 556 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 1: with the starters. And that's not just from the coaching 557 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: stavage from your teammates. Guys want to play with the 558 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 1: quarterback that's gonna allow them to maximize what they can do. 559 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: And we talked a lot about this with Mac and 560 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: Bailey's Appy the last couple of years about where the 561 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 1: locker room is at. I would expect he'll see sometime 562 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: with the ones, whatever the ones looks like in this 563 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: game again with all the offensive lineman out, and those 564 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: are big reps. Form, those big reps form. Like you said, 565 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: this is where if he's gonna make that push, that's 566 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: where it starts. You want to get reps with the 567 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 1: starters and the joint practice, which is very important. Prove 568 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: tomorrow night you're up for it. Yeah, and then from there, right, 569 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 1: you have a good joint practice and you go in 570 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 1: a second preseason game and you start closing that gap. 571 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: So this is his chance to start earning reps with 572 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: the ones. He does have to earn them. You can't 573 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: let your timeline dictate his development. His development is to 574 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: dictate your timeline. And he comes out with the starters 575 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: and struggles. Let's not force it and say, well, it 576 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: was his first time with the starters. Let's keep No, 577 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 1: he's gotta look the part in order to earn more reps. 578 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,640 Speaker 1: But this is a chance for him to earn more reps. 579 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: And if he does play well Thursday night, Dennett's all right, 580 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: how's he looking to the joint practice? How's he look 581 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 1: in the preseason game against the Eagles. And then you 582 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: get to start having that conversation of all right, when 583 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: do we see this in a real game. Yeah, there's 584 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: a lot of ifs in there, but you know, I hear. 585 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 2: What you're saying, and I have a question for you 586 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 2: in a second. But the other thing I just wanted 587 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 2: to say was I've really liked how they've coached him 588 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 2: so far in these practices I had the other day. 589 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 2: And I can't tell you if this has been true 590 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 2: for every single practice because I didn't do this. But 591 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 2: during games, when we're sitting in the press box, I 592 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 2: live chart coverages for usually the Patriots defense. I don't 593 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 2: usually try it the other way, but I'll have chart, 594 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 2: you know, cover one, cover two, blitz, whatever, right, So 595 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 2: I did that for a practice to see what exactly 596 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 2: the coaches are throwing at Drake may in these practices, 597 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 2: because when I was watching it, well, first of all, 598 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 2: what really sparked it was that when he spoke to 599 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 2: us last he said that they had a shot play 600 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 2: drew drawn up that they called for him in the 601 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 2: huddle and then the defense dropped out into cover two 602 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 2: and he was going to be throwing right into the defense, 603 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 2: so he had to check the ball down and you 604 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 2: could feel a sense of maybe a little bit frustration 605 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 2: with the fact that he hadn't been able to truly 606 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 2: air it out, is the terms that he used yet 607 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 2: in practice. So I said, all right, let's see what 608 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 2: they're doing for the practice that I charted in I 609 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 2: believe it was it was Monday's practice. I saw a 610 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 2: lot of cover two or two high safety. I saw 611 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 2: a lot of blitz and so what they're doing with 612 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 2: those two things when they blitzed him, they were making 613 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,719 Speaker 2: him hot, which means that he needs to come with 614 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 2: the ball out right, So you're not gonna sit there, 615 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 2: you know, when there's an unblock blitzer coming off the 616 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 2: edge and they're like run a nickel pressure or something 617 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 2: like that. You're not gonna just like sit there for 618 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 2: three seconds and hold the ball and wait for the 619 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 2: routes down the field to develop and chuck it down 620 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 2: the field. So he you know, when the blitz hit came, 621 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 2: the ball's out, right, he's got to be out. So 622 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 2: he's throwing the ball to his hot at that point 623 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,959 Speaker 2: when they play too high, just like he told us 624 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 2: in the presser, Okay, well I'm not gonna throw a 625 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 2: deep ball into too high because I'm throwing the ball 626 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 2: into you know, into double coverage, Like why would I 627 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 2: do that? Right? So instead what is he doing. He's 628 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 2: checking the ball down. The things that we talk about 629 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 2: with him at North Carolina that were issues that a 630 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 2: lot of people you know, put up to his footwork 631 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 2: and things like that, but a lot of it was Okay. 632 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: We know that he can make the big time throws. 633 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 2: We know he can make the highlights. We know he's 634 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 2: a playmaker. He can run around, he can make plays 635 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 2: off platform, he can do all that kind of stuff. 636 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 2: What we don't know is if he can hit the 637 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 2: layups Can he just sit in the pocket, within structure 638 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 2: and just hit throws on time and in rhythm consistently. 639 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 2: At North Carolina, that was his issue. He could go 640 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 2: out like you put Drake May's best ten college throws 641 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 2: against any quarterback that was drafted in the last like 642 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 2: three or four years, and his throws are right up 643 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 2: there with Anybodyi's. It was the consistency of can he 644 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 2: hit and out when that's all that's available to him? 645 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 2: Can he check a ball down against the too high pressure? 646 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 2: Can he beat a blitz? Can he do all these 647 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 2: little quarterback Intrica season nuances? So in practice, what they've 648 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 2: said to him is, you're not gonna be superman out here, 649 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,719 Speaker 2: Like we're not gonna just let you run around and 650 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 2: throw sixty yard bombs all day because we know you 651 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 2: can do that. That's all over your college tape. We're 652 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 2: gonna make you play quarterback. We're gonna send stuff at 653 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 2: you and you're gonna have to read this out, and 654 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to make the best decision with the football, 655 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 2: and you're gonna have to take profits. You're not gonna 656 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 2: get greedy and throw the ball into coverage and throw 657 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 2: picks left and right, this took a lot of time 658 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 2: for Josh Allen to learn to be able to play 659 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 2: like this. And I know you're gonna tell me he's still. 660 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 1: Has still learning, right, He's still learning. 661 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 2: But this has taken a lot of time for him. 662 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 2: And if you look at Mahomes also, Mahomes' career a 663 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 2: dot and a lot of this is tied to Tyreek Hill, 664 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 2: and I get that, but Mahomes' career A dot is 665 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 2: like goes like this right where like beginning of his career, 666 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 2: he's throwing bombs to Tyreek Hill and now he's like 667 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 2: a dink and dunk quarterback all of a sudden, right 668 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 2: because teams are just playing too high safety. They're playing 669 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 2: too you know, they're playing quarters, they're playing cover two, 670 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 2: and they are saying to Mahomes like, we're not gonna 671 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 2: let you beat us like that. You're gonna have to march. 672 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 2: And right now the Patriots are forcing Drake May to 673 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 2: learn how to march. And I love it. I think 674 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 2: that's exactly how you should coach him because this is 675 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 2: his weakness, like allowing him to just play to his 676 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 2: strengths and his instincts, and this doesn't do anybody any good. 677 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 2: It's not gonna make him any better. This type of 678 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 2: stuff is gonna make him better. So when you put 679 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 2: all this together and you look at some of the 680 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: ups and downs, I think this explains a lot of 681 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,959 Speaker 2: the downs because they're asking him to play to his 682 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 2: weaknesses and do things that he needs to work on 683 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 2: in practice, which is what practice is for. So sometimes 684 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 2: we go out to practice and we watch and we 685 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 2: charte all the throws and we grade the results of 686 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 2: the plays, and it's not pretty for him at times, 687 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 2: but there's a lot of things that go into that. 688 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 2: And I'd much rather this than like watching him go 689 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 2: out there and play street ball and just let him 690 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 2: do it that way, because that's not teaching good habits, 691 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 2: Like that's not NFL quarterback play, that's playground stuff. So 692 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 2: we're in a situation now where they're really trying to 693 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 2: hone in on can you play within the scheme and 694 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 2: within the structure of the offense. And then once we 695 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 2: can get to that point, okay, we'll start letting you 696 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 2: do the other things, and then we add him together 697 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 2: and now all of a sudden, we got a franchise quarterback, right, 698 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 2: Like that's that's the goal. So I'm excited about what 699 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 2: they're doing with him from a coaching perspective. Now, we 700 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 2: hope to see the results, but he's starting to take 701 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 2: to the coaching a little bit, I think too, and 702 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 2: improve on those areas. And that's that's all you can 703 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 2: ask for. So my question to you, because you know 704 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 2: I am. You called me on another show that we 705 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 2: did together, on the Patriots Beat Crossover, you called me 706 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,359 Speaker 2: the biggest the number one fan of the Drake May 707 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 2: fan club. 708 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 1: I think is the biggest Drake May fit. Yeah, yeah, 709 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: something along those biggest Drake May Support or something like that. 710 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 2: So you know everybody knows I'm a Drake May guy. 711 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 2: Was before we'll be after. The question I have for 712 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 2: you is like, am I do I have Rose coud 713 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 2: glasses on with this? Or are you seeing similar things 714 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:50,360 Speaker 2: with his progress and practice? 715 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 1: So I I mean, I think you're mostly accurate. I 716 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,879 Speaker 1: think you're I wouldn't say road colored classes. I think 717 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,799 Speaker 1: you're projecting some going in the right direction, which they 718 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 1: very well could but they haven't yet. But no, I 719 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 1: like that they're making him play left handed. I do 720 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: think that they are kind of forcing him to do 721 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: the things he's not comfortable to do. That is how 722 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 1: you develop a quarterback. I would hope at some point 723 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:20,359 Speaker 1: they maybe, or I not hope. I guess you want 724 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 1: to balance that with making sure he doesn't lose his confidence. 725 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 1: And he doesn't look like he's done that yet. But 726 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 1: you know you don't want to entirely break the kid either, right. 727 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: I think the big thing is it's all everything's happening 728 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: quicker for him than it happened at UNC, and I 729 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: think that to me, he has been The big issue 730 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: is just in some of that is he's reading things 731 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 1: he hasn't read before and they're not favorable to what 732 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: he wants to see. 733 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 2: Right. 734 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 1: The read and react time in the NFL is much 735 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: shorter than the read and react time in the ACC, 736 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: and that's where he was having some issues. And then 737 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: you put on top of that, nobody's blocking for him, 738 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 1: like he couldn't get any protection in the practice yesterday. 739 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 1: The word I kept going back to was comfortable. I 740 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 1: thought he looked comfortable. It also happened to be the 741 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: practice that he got the best pass blocking because David 742 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: Andrews's back, so Nick Leverett goes back with that group. 743 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 1: I thought kayten Wallas had a really good day, like 744 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 1: he just had more time and that's that, to me, 745 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 1: was the most encouraging thing that I don't want to 746 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: say like there was nothing to worry about from last week, 747 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 1: because they're definitely he didn't look great, but the pass 748 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: pro is a big part of it, and I think 749 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,720 Speaker 1: it was encouraging to see, Okay, he had some time, 750 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: and when he had time, he didn't look as flustered, 751 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 1: like he actually used the time he had to deliver 752 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: the ball. And you know some of the live game 753 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 1: rep stuff. I put more stock into that two minute trailer, 754 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: one minute drill going more awry than maybe you did 755 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: because the baker one I don't like to read. I 756 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: don't that's a tight window that you're showing a ton of. 757 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 2: Dress and those are definitely ones that you'll learn now 758 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 2: at this level that that window doesn't exist. 759 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 1: So I was gonna say, if he learns from that 760 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 1: and doesn't throw that again, then fine, he threw the pick, 761 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 1: he learned from it. It happens like anytime there's a 762 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 1: there's I know you said they you know, moved on 763 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: from Affie. But anytime you don't get the ball snapped 764 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: that's partially on the quarterback. That's just the reality of 765 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 1: the position, right, So I still am concerned about in 766 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:23,839 Speaker 1: the livest game situations, the one minute the two minute 767 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: drills are his worst periods of practice. And that is 768 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,360 Speaker 1: to me part of the reason why Thursday is so big, 769 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,799 Speaker 1: because it is live game action, show up, show up, 770 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: show it in a live game. But I was encouraged 771 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: by all, Right, now that he has time to throw, 772 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 1: we're seeing a little more of that true quarterbacking than 773 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 1: maybe we were seeing earlier in practice. 774 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's totally fair about the hurry up. You have 775 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 2: to put some on the quarterback. The fact that it's 776 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 2: not even just that he's not moving the ball, he's 777 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 2: not completing a pass. 778 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 1: No, he's gone. He's it's like, oh for eight if 779 00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: I remember, But it's not just oh fraight. He hasn't 780 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: fit fished with the score yet on a one or 781 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 1: two minute. But I think you said he's run eight 782 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 1: of them. I don't have the number in my head. Yeah, 783 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 1: how many first downs does he have? I don't He 784 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 1: might not have one over the last two practices. 785 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 2: I'm in that one last practice, I think he's literally 786 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 2: oh for eight in terms of pass attemps, I don't 787 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 2: think he's pass attimes. I don't think he's completed a 788 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:19,359 Speaker 2: single paser. 789 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: I think going back, he might have because they've done 790 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 1: a few of these. They've probably about eight of them, 791 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,799 Speaker 1: like that number sound or right. I remember he had 792 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: one where he picked up a first down but he 793 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 1: literally was third and long and they threw it in 794 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 1: the flat to Terrell Jennings and Jennings made a guy 795 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: miss and picked up the first down. Like yeah, it's 796 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 1: not even like, oh, you know, he's moving the ball, 797 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: but he's not scoring touchdowns or oh you know, they're 798 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 1: making competitive plays. He's not moving the ball in those situations. 799 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 1: That is my real concern right now. But that's also 800 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: Thursday night so big because if he does it Thursday night, 801 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: all right, well when the lights got brighter, he did it, 802 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: so whatever. 803 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll get to more individual players in the second 804 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 2: one thing and that you mentioned, and Paul has mentioned 805 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:02,320 Speaker 2: this on Filtered as well, and I guess I probably 806 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 2: I know it sounds almost stupid, but like I don't 807 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 2: necessarily pay as much attention to it because what I 808 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 2: I'm more looking for is like perfect plays, right, Like 809 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 2: was that cleaned, that it executed properly, all that kind 810 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 2: of tent right, Yeah, but there's been a lot even 811 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 2: not just for Drake Maye what Jacobi were set to 812 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 2: of like the play clock, like getting to zero, the 813 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 2: snap not getting off, or like just like stuff in 814 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 2: between plays operational, Yeah, where it's like are they are 815 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 2: they getting in and out of the huddle fast enough? 816 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 2: Are they doing? And that kind of stuff tends to 817 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,799 Speaker 2: and I know this kind of goes up your alley, 818 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 2: So that's why I'm bringing it up. That kind of 819 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,919 Speaker 2: stuff with these types of West Coast and like these 820 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 2: these types of offensive coaches. I know this's gonna sound stupid, 821 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 2: but they like almost don't care in a practice, and 822 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 2: they they expect that this is the NFL. Yeah, when 823 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 2: we get into games, like you're gonna know how like 824 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 2: this is the NFL, Right, I don't have to baby 825 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 2: you through these. Whereas with Bill that was part of practice, right, 826 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 2: was this is a game. Treat it like a game. 827 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 2: If we don't get the playoff, I'm throwing the fake 828 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 2: flag and we're going five yards back for delay of game. 829 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 2: In these practices, they almost ignore the play clock. They 830 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:21,400 Speaker 2: don't even look at it. 831 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: So that's why I said on the on the Drake 832 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 1: May one minute yesterday, the play clock was like well 833 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: out before the bad snap from AFY and they never 834 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:31,239 Speaker 1: really acknowledged it. 835 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 2: They they don't care. And I don't know if that's 836 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,919 Speaker 2: for the better or for the worse, Like we'll find out. 837 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 2: But my guess is if you went to some of 838 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 2: these other camps that have similar philosophies and coaching trees 839 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 2: and things like that, I don't know if they would care. 840 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,399 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a it's a West Coast tree thing. 841 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,400 Speaker 1: Game management's not important. Like that's why I brought it up. 842 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,839 Speaker 2: Now i'd say that, hey, you're gonna get there, am 843 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:55,720 Speaker 2: I ron No, That's why I've. 844 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 1: Been And you see now why I hear. It's easy 845 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,360 Speaker 1: to say I'm over it's overblown when it's not the 846 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 1: team you're watching day in and day no. 847 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 2: Because you get into the games and we see this 848 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 2: on Sundays with some of these teams, and I'm this 849 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 2: is hot where it. 850 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:10,320 Speaker 1: Might have Daniel in a playoff game can't get a 851 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 1: play calling correct, So like it does matter. I Brissett's 852 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,760 Speaker 1: been better about it. The first few days of practice. 853 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: The top offense had some issues. They've been pre They 854 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 1: had one drop snap yesterday. It was in a rain. 855 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: It's David Andrews. I'm not gonna fret about that. With 856 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: Drake May's group, there's still some operational stuff. I would 857 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: hope if and when maybe comes the starter leading up 858 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 1: to that, even if it's like a week or two before, 859 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: if you know you're kind of on the precipice of 860 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: making that change, you drill that will they I don't know, 861 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 1: but no, you're right about that. 862 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. It's it's funny because it manifests itself on Sundays 863 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:46,719 Speaker 2: with these types of coaches, and I know, people on 864 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,840 Speaker 2: your side of the street will say, oh, they're like, 865 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 2: they're no, their nose deep in the freaking play sheet 866 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 2: and they don't like or like watching the game or 867 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 2: feeling the game or whatever. Whereas Bill was always like 868 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 2: stoic on the sideline, you know, just kind of seeing everything. 869 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 1: Well, Mayo's not from that background. It is a little 870 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 1: surprising that Mayo and maybe if it does become an issue, 871 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:09,359 Speaker 1: Mayo goes to Van Pelton says, you need to work 872 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 1: on this. I know you have your practice script, but 873 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 1: this that would be that'd be an interesting test for 874 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: Mayo as the first time head coach, Like, if it 875 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: does become a problem, does he go to Van Pelt, 876 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: who's just has more tenure as a coach, and say, 877 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: I'm the head coach of the team, this is unacceptable, 878 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 1: this is happening. You need a dedicate practice time to 879 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 1: fixing it. I would hope he would do that. 880 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm still interested in that aspect of girod Mayo, 881 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 2: and also just in the aspect of he said that 882 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 2: he wants to be a floater. Yeah, in terms of 883 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,279 Speaker 2: being a coach like Bill was, where you know, he's 884 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 2: popping around at different position groups and offense, defense, special teams, whatever. 885 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 2: H I wonder how, I wonder if he has the 886 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 2: acumen for it. I'm not trying to like get at 887 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 2: him for like football IQ or anything like that. He 888 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,240 Speaker 2: obviously knows football. I'm just saying there's a big difference 889 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 2: when you're Bill Belichick and you're doing that and you 890 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 2: have what is it, fifty some odd years of information 891 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 2: you know, stowed away in the brain, and you've coached 892 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 2: multiple sides of the ball, special teams, defense, whatever, that 893 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 2: he can flow because he's Bill Belichick right like hel 894 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 2: and he can tell you all twenty two guys what 895 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,800 Speaker 2: they did wrong on a play instantly. It's interesting to 896 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,720 Speaker 2: approach for a first time head coach that's his youngest 897 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 2: girod because most of the guys in his school or 898 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 2: like that are in his situation and his shoes. They 899 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:36,080 Speaker 2: would just coach their side of the ball, right like. 900 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:39,480 Speaker 2: He's a defensive guy, so he would just coach the defense. 901 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 2: And Alex Van Pelt is an experienced offensive coordinator that 902 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,279 Speaker 2: he's brought in, and so he would just let Alex 903 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 2: van pel coach the offense. I still don't know we're 904 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 2: fully in Bill mode yet, like maybe he's still doing 905 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 2: more of the defense than anything. But I'll be interested 906 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 2: to see once we get into the season how hands 907 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:01,360 Speaker 2: on he is with the other phases. Is because you 908 00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,280 Speaker 2: just give you an example. You know, Demiko Ryans in Houston. 909 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 2: Demiko Ryans is calling the defense in Houston. He's literally 910 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,359 Speaker 2: the play caller on game day on the defensive side 911 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 2: of the ball, and he doesn't necessarily touch the offense 912 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:20,800 Speaker 2: as much. So we'll see what happens. It's it's officially 913 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 2: back the football season, which means it's back to school season, Alex, 914 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 2: and you can find everything you need to design your 915 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 2: dream dorm at Bob's Discount Furniture. Set up stylish study 916 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:32,840 Speaker 2: spots with plenty of small space friendly seating, a plus 917 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 2: bedroom sets and of course smart storage made to maximize 918 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 2: your college HQ. So stop in and make the grade 919 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 2: with Bob's Discount Furniture, the official furniture store of the 920 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 2: New England Patriots. Just take some calls and emails and 921 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 2: then we'll get to it. We're gonna do three up, 922 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 2: three down again from the last week or so of camp. 923 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:51,759 Speaker 2: But Patty is an agua. What's up? 924 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:58,280 Speaker 4: Patty? 925 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 3: Take you? 926 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:04,959 Speaker 5: So, just regarding Drake, by tomorrow night, I'm not gonna 927 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 5: be able to see the game because I got to 928 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:10,240 Speaker 5: drive to port Chester, New York for Magawam for five am. 929 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 5: But I'm recording it. But do you think do you 930 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 5: think their philosophy is just going to be like, you know, 931 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 5: just don't hesitate if you see something or if you're 932 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 5: anticipating something, just let her rip, you know, trying you know, 933 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 5: don't overthink it, don't have some fun, but just you know, 934 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 5: do what they're doing. Try and play in structure, and 935 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 5: like I said, don't hesitate if you if you see 936 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 5: something or anticipate something, make it happen. I'll take it 937 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 5: off here, guys. That's always you guys are the best. 938 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,800 Speaker 2: Thanks, Patty, appreciate it. Yeah, I I hope and I 939 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,319 Speaker 2: feel like based off of talking to the quarterbacks that 940 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:48,280 Speaker 2: that's sort of the mindset even in practice. 941 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. 942 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 2: I think it was Joe Milton actually who said the 943 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 2: other day, if you're thinking about making a mistake, you're 944 00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 2: gonna make a mistake. It's when you just play loose 945 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:02,239 Speaker 2: and play free you don't make mistakes. So I would 946 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,160 Speaker 2: expect that that's exactly where they're gonna have Drake May 947 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 2: going into this game is don't think about it. Just 948 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 2: let it rip, you know, if you see it, let 949 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 2: it rip, you know, Like it doesn't need to be 950 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 2: any deeper than that. I expect him to take his 951 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,040 Speaker 2: chances and you're not risk right, you know what I mean. 952 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:22,839 Speaker 1: I would hope that they just tell him to take 953 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 1: the same approach he would for a game, like a 954 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 1: regular season game, practice how you play. He should have 955 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 1: the same approach and practice that he does in preseason 956 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:32,279 Speaker 1: games that does in regular season games. Yeah, this's just 957 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 1: if you start overthinking it, then bad things happen. Yeah, 958 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: I agree, all right, along these lines that are on that, 959 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 1: how much you think he's gonna play. 960 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:44,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good place just put that in. I 961 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 2: would expect it depends on how Girod said to Jacoby 962 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 2: Brissett's gonna start. So I'm just gonna take him at 963 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,759 Speaker 2: his work. If Jacoby Brissett starts, then obviously a lot 964 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 2: depends on how that first drive and they go three 965 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 2: and out and they want him to get some work in, 966 00:46:58,320 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 2: then that's not gonna do it right. You're gonna have 967 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 2: to say and then back out there, and then you're 968 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 2: starting to get into like real game time and all 969 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. My guess is that they'll have 970 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:09,320 Speaker 2: a certain set number of drives that they would like 971 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 2: Drake May to play. Whether that spans into the second 972 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 2: half or not will be determined on how long the 973 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 2: drives are and all that kind of stuff. I expect 974 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 2: him to play the equivalent of probably at least a 975 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 2: quarter and a half, if not the whole a whole 976 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 2: half of football, especially if they're planning on him not 977 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 2: playing early in the year, which is I still think 978 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 2: the plan for them, then this is the this is 979 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:36,400 Speaker 2: his opportunity to get game reps. So if they're not 980 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,280 Speaker 2: going to play him until Halloween or Thanksgiving or something 981 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,799 Speaker 2: like that in the regular season, now's the time. Like 982 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:43,440 Speaker 2: he's not going to get any better reps than this. 983 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 2: So I'd expect him to play a good chunk of 984 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:50,719 Speaker 2: this game. I'd say conservatively a quarter and a half equivalent, 985 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 2: but maybe even two full quarters. 986 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 1: So I think two maximum three drives for Brissette, So 987 00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 1: that puts may in late in the first quarter, start 988 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 1: a second quarter. Yeah, I think he plays the whole 989 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 1: second quarter. There is this is where and so I 990 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: some of this may be decided on the fly. There 991 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,640 Speaker 1: is value and Bill used to talk about this and having 992 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:14,400 Speaker 1: the quarterback, young quarterback go in a halftime meet with 993 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: the coaches, go over adjustments, go out for the first 994 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:19,440 Speaker 1: drive of the third quarter, maybe the second drive, execute 995 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 1: those adjustments. That's a valuable exercise. But if they can't 996 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 1: protect him, maybe he gets the hook after the second quarter. 997 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 1: And I do think that's gonna be a factor because 998 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 1: it could get ugly up front, like they're gonna have 999 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 1: any of the starters gonna play in this game. I 1000 00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:40,239 Speaker 1: know Mayo said everybody healthy enough to practice will play, 1001 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:44,360 Speaker 1: but City so miss practice yesterday. Troops Corps four has 1002 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:47,399 Speaker 1: missed the last what four practices? David Andrews, I don't 1003 00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 1: think is gonna play, even though he practiced a little 1004 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,879 Speaker 1: bit yesterday. We don't even know really who the starting 1005 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:54,919 Speaker 1: left tackle is. You don't have a true starter there. 1006 00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 1: That leaves Mike Gonino. Who's your best lineman? Does he 1007 00:48:58,200 --> 00:48:59,520 Speaker 1: play and how much does he play? 1008 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 2: So I don't expect My guess is that some of 1009 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:07,760 Speaker 2: those guys, those veteran Yeah, David Andrews, Hunter, Henry, Mike Onwenu. 1010 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:10,239 Speaker 2: I don't expect to see those guys. 1011 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 1: So, right, So do they have Are they gonna be 1012 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,399 Speaker 1: able to protect Drake may Because if they can't and 1013 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 1: he's take he's getting the crapp eat out of him. 1014 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,120 Speaker 1: You can't leave him in the game, right, you can't. 1015 00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 1: So I think that's going to dictate part of it. 1016 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: But I think he definitely gets the whole second quarters. 1017 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 1: Just do they let him make the turn going into 1018 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 1: the second half? Yeah, I bet if they win the 1019 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:31,359 Speaker 1: coin toss, they're going to kick for that exact reason. 1020 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: So they can just put him in the game, get 1021 00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 1: him out at halftime. 1022 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 2: Oh that's interesting, Okay, all right, I like it. All right, 1023 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 2: Dylan is in Tennessee. What's up, Dylan, Dylan, Dylan's up, Dylan. 1024 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 2: All right, give us a call back, Dylan, and we'll 1025 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 2: get you on the air. A couple of emails here 1026 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 2: that we have. Most of these are just uh, you know, 1027 00:49:55,239 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 2: post mortem Brandon Nyuk stuff. Yeah, but you know a 1028 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 2: lot of people asking about the same things that we're 1029 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 2: kind of saying in terms of that they need to 1030 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:10,280 Speaker 2: be more desirable destination, YadA, YadA, YadA. One about Ceedee Lamb, 1031 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:12,360 Speaker 2: we like really a little we touch on that a 1032 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:16,000 Speaker 2: little bit. I kind of viewed and maybe this is wrong, 1033 00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:18,400 Speaker 2: and maybe there's there's precedent that I'm not thinking about, 1034 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,799 Speaker 2: but I sort of view the Jerry Jones Cowboys kind 1035 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:23,400 Speaker 2: of like I view the Yankees, where like, when you 1036 00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 2: have a player of Ceedee Lamb's caliber, Michael Parsons's caliber, 1037 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:28,680 Speaker 2: like Jerry Jones, doesn't let those guys get out of there. 1038 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:31,839 Speaker 2: So you say that, but but they haven't signed Dak. 1039 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,520 Speaker 1: They haven't signed that. They've been acting more like one 1040 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:36,399 Speaker 1: of those big market teams. That's not a big market team. 1041 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 1: Remember they they promised big splashes at the start of 1042 00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:41,920 Speaker 1: the off season and then proceeded to sign nobody. And 1043 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,080 Speaker 1: it's not just about not wanting to bring him back. 1044 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:47,759 Speaker 1: They haven't signed Dak and that's starting to get contentious. 1045 00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 1: I think they also have to pay what is sign 1046 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:53,120 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. Yeah, is almost up too, right. 1047 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:57,240 Speaker 2: If he isn't, So he's it's. 1048 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:58,719 Speaker 1: His extension year. Next year he'll be going. 1049 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 2: He was a twenty twenty one Halft pick, which means 1050 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:05,240 Speaker 2: that he's going into year five ye or year four. 1051 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 1: So his his fifth year option will be next year. 1052 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 2: Correct, So he's a year away, but he's he's extension eligible. 1053 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:17,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh yeah, So here's the thing. He can say, 1054 00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:19,480 Speaker 1: He's gonna pay him eventually all he wants. And this 1055 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 1: is some of what I think happened with AU. There's 1056 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:24,240 Speaker 1: other factors that play here, But yeah, how long seeding 1057 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 1: lamb gonna sit there and hear that how they're seed? 1058 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:29,480 Speaker 1: How long is seeding lamb gonna sit there and say, yeah, okay, 1059 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:32,239 Speaker 1: you're gonna pay me, Sure, I'll wait, Or does he 1060 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 1: get fed up and say, you know what I'm not 1061 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,800 Speaker 1: listening to you anymore. You've negotiated with me in bad faith. 1062 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,480 Speaker 1: I don't Jerry Jones is the kind of guy that 1063 00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:43,359 Speaker 1: will open up the checkbook. Yes, he's also the kind 1064 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 1: of guy that could aggravate a player to the point 1065 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 1: where runs him out of town before he gets to 1066 00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 1: opening the checkbook. 1067 00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 2: I guess that's fair. I just look at Ceedee Lamb. 1068 00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 2: I'll just use a current Yankee comparison. Yeah, it would 1069 00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:56,120 Speaker 2: be like if the Yankees let Aaron Judge walk. They 1070 00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:58,840 Speaker 2: almost did, and they almost did, but they didn't. Right, Like, 1071 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:03,360 Speaker 2: they almost did but they didn't, And our whole lifetime, 1072 00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 2: that's been the Yankees, right. Derek Jeter never left the Yankees, 1073 00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:08,839 Speaker 2: Mo Rivera never left you, and it was we never 1074 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:10,400 Speaker 2: even talked about it as a possibility. 1075 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:12,359 Speaker 1: It doesn't happen till it does. I'll say it again. 1076 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:14,400 Speaker 2: I don't know. I just look at the cow I 1077 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 2: can't imagine the Cowboys. 1078 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 1: I would also arrange just again to see is Seede 1079 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:25,759 Speaker 1: Lamb gonna be patient? Is Ceede Lamb gonna be patient? 1080 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:26,919 Speaker 1: Or is he going to get to the point where 1081 00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 1: he says, you know what I can get thirty five 1082 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 1: million dollars a year from thirty one other NFL teams. 1083 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,520 Speaker 1: You don't want to pay me, fine, we're done here, 1084 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:35,719 Speaker 1: move me. 1085 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 2: So here's uh comedy play. 1086 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,240 Speaker 1: How many players the Niners like get away over the years, 1087 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 1: like in their prime? I know Jerry Rice left like, yeah. 1088 00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 2: But not many? Not many? Connor and uh uh has 1089 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:49,799 Speaker 2: a proposal for cd VAM you want to hear it? Yeah, 1090 00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 2: it's interesting one actually all right? Uh first round pick 1091 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:57,359 Speaker 2: swap okay with Dallas, So yeah, you could do that. Yeah, 1092 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:01,399 Speaker 2: second round pick a future third round pick. So I'm 1093 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,279 Speaker 2: assuming this is like the first round pick swap in 1094 00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 2: twenty five, second round pick in twenty five. Maybe you're 1095 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:09,720 Speaker 2: a twenty twenty six third round pick and either Matthew 1096 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:11,040 Speaker 2: Judon or Kendrick Bord. 1097 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:14,439 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I'd probably get it done. But isn't 1098 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,880 Speaker 1: the the price is gonna be set by the Ayuk move. Well, 1099 00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 1: he's a better player than Ayuk, right, but it's gonna 1100 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 1: be relatively set going from a second round pick to 1101 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:24,879 Speaker 1: a first round all right. And by the way, when 1102 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:26,520 Speaker 1: I talk about ceedee Lamb and we'll get to some 1103 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 1: of the other guys, like I don't mean doing that 1104 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 1: now I'm talking about in the spring. 1105 00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we're definitely talking about it in 1106 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:33,200 Speaker 2: the spring here. 1107 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, first round pick swaps interesting. I'd probably rather give 1108 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:40,480 Speaker 1: up the second outright than do the first round pickswap. 1109 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 2: Well, you are also giving up the second, yeah, I 1110 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:44,719 Speaker 2: just in this propose. 1111 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna cost that much more than you. 1112 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:48,879 Speaker 1: I don't think you need to give up that much. 1113 00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 1: I think it might be he's gonna cost more. But 1114 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:54,880 Speaker 1: is it a second and next to your second in 1115 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 1: a YUK or something like that. 1116 00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:58,239 Speaker 2: I'm interested to see where the market goes with these 1117 00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:03,760 Speaker 2: receiver trades because is, on the one hand, they're extremely 1118 00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:06,120 Speaker 2: valuable commodities in the league. Now we know that they're 1119 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 2: getting paid like it, they perform, they produce like it 1120 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:13,160 Speaker 2: they are. Now, you could make a case, and I 1121 00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 2: don't know if I would, but you could make a 1122 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:18,279 Speaker 2: case of the second most important position in football. But 1123 00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:20,680 Speaker 2: there's obviously quarterbacks number one, right. 1124 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,600 Speaker 1: But there's so many of them. 1125 00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:25,080 Speaker 2: So that's my point. There are so many of them, 1126 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 2: and now it's also at a point where good talent 1127 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:35,120 Speaker 2: evaluating teams can draft them, right, and so at what 1128 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:38,000 Speaker 2: point and maybe we'll see it with you know, Brandon 1129 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 2: and Yuk. I think is the reason why I wouldn't 1130 00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:42,439 Speaker 2: say it's comparable is because at the time of year, 1131 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,520 Speaker 2: because if the if the Cowboys trade Ceedee Lamb, they're 1132 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:47,960 Speaker 2: going to trade them in March, which is when his 1133 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:49,719 Speaker 2: stock is going to be. 1134 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: The Maybe it's the Dick's trade. Maybe it's a first 1135 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,120 Speaker 1: round pick out right for Ceedee Lamb. 1136 00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:58,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I agree that this Hall would easily get 1137 00:54:58,360 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 2: it done. 1138 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:00,560 Speaker 1: Probably, Yeah, you don't need to give up them. 1139 00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:01,879 Speaker 2: I don't know if you need to give up that much. 1140 00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:04,920 Speaker 1: I don't think you do either. And there's less of 1141 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:06,759 Speaker 1: these there's only so many teams that can give out 1142 00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 1: these contracts. Yeah, and there's less and less of them, 1143 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:10,799 Speaker 1: and they'll be more in March than there are right now. 1144 00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:13,520 Speaker 2: But like, like if the if you're just an example 1145 00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,240 Speaker 2: from this past draft, and I get that this draft 1146 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:19,080 Speaker 2: was unique at receiver still even yeah, like this was 1147 00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 2: a great top of the receiver class. My guess is, 1148 00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 2: and I haven't obviously done deep dives into Burden and 1149 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 2: Tech McMillan and those guys, but I don't I can't 1150 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,480 Speaker 2: imagine that I'm going to have them higher than neighbors 1151 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:35,040 Speaker 2: of Dunes, say and Marvin Harrison. I just I can't but. 1152 00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:40,879 Speaker 1: They're like a half step below burden. Is McMillan's such 1153 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: an unknown still? 1154 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:43,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, it just it's hard for me to fathom. 1155 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 1: How far was your gap? Because I get I look 1156 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:48,839 Speaker 1: at like Zay Flowers and Xavi You're worthy. Yeah, how 1157 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 1: far is the gap between them and neighbors to you? 1158 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:52,160 Speaker 2: Big? 1159 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:54,520 Speaker 1: Well, he's like a better version. I think of those 1160 00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:55,799 Speaker 1: like a slightly better version. 1161 00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:58,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, neighbors. Neighbors to me would have been. 1162 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 1: You had neighbors up there with Harrison too, you had, Yeah. 1163 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 2: It was it was close. Yeah, it was closer than 1164 00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:07,719 Speaker 2: other people had. I don't even know if that's true. 1165 00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:12,000 Speaker 2: Like I feel like neighbors. By the end, people were 1166 00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,040 Speaker 2: we were all pretty in lockstep. That all three of 1167 00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:17,400 Speaker 2: those guys were elite blue chip prospects. 1168 00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 1: I think that was people just needed something to talk 1169 00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:20,080 Speaker 1: about more than anything else. 1170 00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:22,080 Speaker 2: I don't think he was a better prospect than Marvin 1171 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 2: Harrison Junior. But if any giants in camp is any indication, 1172 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:31,360 Speaker 2: my goodness, but he's He's would be the wide receiver 1173 00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 2: one in pretty much any other one. 1174 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, but but but look, the point being like, 1175 00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:37,760 Speaker 1: it's it's supplying demand. 1176 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,360 Speaker 2: There's gonna be receivers in the every draft. There is 1177 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:41,920 Speaker 2: more every draft is gonna happen. 1178 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,200 Speaker 1: And and there's gonna be guys who want new contracts 1179 00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 1: every year who the teams won't pay. There's there's more 1180 00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:49,240 Speaker 1: supply than there is demand for wide receivers. That doesn't 1181 00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:52,120 Speaker 1: it can change, but doesn't look like it's changing anytime soon. 1182 00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 2: Yep, all right, Rodney is in Delaware. What's up? Rodney? 1183 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 6: Hey guys, Hey, but I was trying to wonder, how 1184 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:01,719 Speaker 6: do you got a little a post trade for other 1185 00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:05,960 Speaker 6: Orlando Brown from the Bengals since they just drafted Amarius 1186 00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 6: Men's and they also have Trent Brown or possibly a 1187 00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 6: Trimp Williams trade. 1188 00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks for the call of Rodney. So I put 1189 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:17,400 Speaker 2: this out on Twitter for the show. So I'm glad 1190 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 2: he brought up Trent Williams. The other conversation or the 1191 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:24,440 Speaker 2: other sort of rebuttal to the Brandon Ayuk situation I 1192 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,520 Speaker 2: keep hearing is that the left tackle is a bigger 1193 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:31,440 Speaker 2: need than receiver, and I get it to an extent 1194 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 2: because they just drafted two receivers. Everybody feels pretty good 1195 00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 2: about Baker and Polk, like, maybe those guys are enough 1196 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 2: at least for now. Maybe they're enough. Maybe they are 1197 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:43,760 Speaker 2: Nico Collins in Tank Dell right like, maybe they're they're 1198 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 2: enough for now. Whereas left tackle, we both I think 1199 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 2: agree with this. Vederian Low cannot be your starting left 1200 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,760 Speaker 2: tackle in Week one. They're in trouble. But they're in trouble. Yeah, 1201 00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:58,160 Speaker 2: that's the case. So I get it. It's a bigger need, 1202 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 2: but you can't. It's it's not mad, and you can't 1203 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:02,480 Speaker 2: just create a player out of thin air and make 1204 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:06,400 Speaker 2: him available via trade. If Trent Williams was available via trade, 1205 00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 2: I think the Patriots would be calling him the forty 1206 00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:10,240 Speaker 2: nine ers, just like they did with Brandon Nyuk. 1207 00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:13,560 Speaker 1: So part of the reason the Niners are trading Brandon 1208 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:15,400 Speaker 1: Ayuk is because they want to get in a position 1209 00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:16,400 Speaker 1: to pay Trent Williams. 1210 00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's in a tier of his own right now 1211 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 2: at left tackle. He's the best left tackle in football, 1212 00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:24,920 Speaker 2: and I think he's in like a tier an s 1213 00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:28,320 Speaker 2: tier by himself right now. So if he was available 1214 00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:32,680 Speaker 2: via trade, the aggressiveness at the Patriots showed for Brandon 1215 00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:35,560 Speaker 2: Nyuk would be the same level of aggressiveness for Trent Williams. 1216 00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 2: He's not available. I don't think he's not available. Orlando 1217 00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 2: Brown interesting name if I'm the Bengals, though, one Amirius 1218 00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 2: Mims is extremely raw. He barely played in college and 1219 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,680 Speaker 2: I what like eleven career star's twelve career starts or 1220 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:57,520 Speaker 2: something like that at Georgia got hurt last year, Very 1221 00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 2: very raw, raw player. And we we know all about 1222 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:04,360 Speaker 2: Trent Brown and that experience. 1223 00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:07,480 Speaker 1: He just passes physically two days ago. 1224 00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 2: We know all about it. Right, So the combination of 1225 00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 2: those two factors, a Orlando Brown is still the best 1226 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 2: tackle they have on that team until further notice, until 1227 00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 2: Marius Mims realizes his potential. If you're the Bengals, you're 1228 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,439 Speaker 2: in a win now mode with Joe Burrow. You don't 1229 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:26,560 Speaker 2: know what t Higgins's future is. This is probably your 1230 00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:28,400 Speaker 2: best year to push the chips all in the middle 1231 00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:31,760 Speaker 2: of the table. I would be I would doubt that 1232 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:33,320 Speaker 2: they would want to move on from a guy like 1233 00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:37,360 Speaker 2: Orlando Brown right now. He's their one known commodity. 1234 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't. 1235 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:41,320 Speaker 2: You can't count on Trent Brown. We've been down that 1236 00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 2: road here before. You can't count on them. So that's 1237 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:49,560 Speaker 2: my two cents on that bigger picture. Name the tackle. Like, 1238 00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 2: if you if you are sitting out there and you're 1239 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:55,240 Speaker 2: saying tackles a bigger need than wide receiver, why aren't 1240 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,720 Speaker 2: they pursuing tackles instead of Brandon Aiyuk? Tell me the tackle, Like, 1241 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,320 Speaker 2: tell me the tackle be available. That can be his 1242 01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 2: day one starting left tackle for this team. And I 1243 01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:09,080 Speaker 2: will tell you either, Yeah, you're right that they should 1244 01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:12,320 Speaker 2: make that move. But I'm telling you there's one name, 1245 01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 2: there's one name that I would monitor, and that's Garrett 1246 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:20,120 Speaker 2: Boles and Denver and even him is the same congress. 1247 01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:21,520 Speaker 1: They think bon Nix is gonna work. 1248 01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:23,440 Speaker 2: They're not gonna trade, oh god, dude, they do not. 1249 01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 1: But they have to think bo Nicks is gonna work. 1250 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:28,000 Speaker 1: They took him in the first round. 1251 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:31,160 Speaker 2: That's fair. It's the same congress. 1252 01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:35,160 Speaker 1: Objectively, if you just drafted a first round quarterback, even 1253 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:36,840 Speaker 1: though we both think he was far from a first 1254 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 1: round quarterback. If you just drafted a first round quarterback 1255 01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 1: and they have no depth to tackle, they have nobody. 1256 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:44,320 Speaker 1: William Sherman is on their depth chart. Remember him? 1257 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:46,920 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's like mister President not. 1258 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:48,640 Speaker 1: Low on their depth chart. Do you actually remember who 1259 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:48,840 Speaker 1: that is? 1260 01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, they draft the Patriots drafted he's not low on 1261 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:52,360 Speaker 2: their depth chart. 1262 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,920 Speaker 1: They're not training garat pul No tackle is We just 1263 01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 1: talked about how there's a surplus of wide receivers. There's 1264 01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 1: the opposite tackle is the opposite you get good tackle? 1265 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,479 Speaker 1: They are not forget sixty four tackles good enough because 1266 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:05,560 Speaker 1: ever team needs too. I don't know if there's thirty 1267 01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:07,920 Speaker 1: two starting caliber tackles in the NFL right now. It's 1268 01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,520 Speaker 1: scarce you that one you have to do in the draft? 1269 01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:14,680 Speaker 1: Will Campbell Calvin Banks that one's gonna have to be 1270 01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:15,160 Speaker 1: in the draft. 1271 01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:17,480 Speaker 2: YEP. I think we're in agreement on that all right. 1272 01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:20,480 Speaker 2: But again, if you have a name like I threw out, 1273 01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:23,040 Speaker 2: Garrett Boles is probably one of the only names that 1274 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:24,520 Speaker 2: I can think of off the top of my head. 1275 01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:25,680 Speaker 1: Why do you think he'd be available? 1276 01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:28,720 Speaker 2: Like, you know, because because he's in a similar contract 1277 01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:31,320 Speaker 2: situation as some of these other receivers that we're talking about, 1278 01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:34,880 Speaker 2: where he's he's not like holding in or holding out 1279 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:36,680 Speaker 2: or anything like that. I don't think in Denver, but 1280 01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:37,720 Speaker 2: he needs to be paid. 1281 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:40,240 Speaker 1: So they're back up right now, if they move on 1282 01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:41,600 Speaker 1: fro him, his gun named Matt Perk. 1283 01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:45,160 Speaker 2: Name sounds familiar, but not for good reasons. 1284 01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:48,880 Speaker 1: M He started six NFL games. 1285 01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:51,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I hear you. That's why. But that my 1286 01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:53,880 Speaker 2: point is in bringing up Garrett Balls, if they didn't. 1287 01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:56,000 Speaker 1: Have bo Nicks, if they were in the true rebuilding year, 1288 01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:58,200 Speaker 1: they should be and it would make sense. But they're not. Yeah, 1289 01:01:58,240 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna try to make it work. 1290 01:01:59,320 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 2: They're they're there's no name, like, there's no name. And 1291 01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:06,320 Speaker 2: don't don't hit me with David Bottieri either, because but 1292 01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:08,360 Speaker 2: David Baktiari is not playing football right now. 1293 01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 1: Again, there's so few good tackles in the league. If David, 1294 01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:14,520 Speaker 1: first of all, if Dave bok Terry could play, be 1295 01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:17,960 Speaker 1: a Jet, he'd be with Rogers. Yeah, but like if 1296 01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 1: a team thought he could play, they'd bring him in 1297 01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 1: for workout because everybody, it's not just the Patriots, everybody's 1298 01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:23,800 Speaker 1: desperate for tackles right now. 1299 01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:26,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. It just I'm not even trying to be a 1300 01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:29,280 Speaker 2: jerk about it. Like maybe I'm not thinking of somebody 1301 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,200 Speaker 2: that somebody else can think of, because I can't think 1302 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 2: of anybody right now that I've scoured the depth charts, like, 1303 01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:37,960 Speaker 2: there's nobody that I can think of right now that 1304 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 2: makes any sort of sense in terms of the team 1305 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:42,920 Speaker 2: wanting to part ways with the player and being available 1306 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:45,520 Speaker 2: via trade and all that kind of stuff. There's receivers 1307 01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,680 Speaker 2: that are available potentially via trade. You Co is definitely available, 1308 01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:52,040 Speaker 2: Lamb might be available eventually. Your guy DK Metcalf not 1309 01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:55,840 Speaker 2: this year, but next offseason might be available. That happens. Ye, 1310 01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:59,080 Speaker 2: Trent Williams is the last really good tackle that I 1311 01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:03,200 Speaker 2: can think of that move a trade. It doesn't happen. 1312 01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:05,640 Speaker 2: It doesn't happen. And the guys that hit free agency, 1313 01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:08,760 Speaker 2: or you know, the mcglinche's and the Jowan Taylors and 1314 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 2: like those types of players, not not Trent Williams, right, which. 1315 01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:14,640 Speaker 1: But that kind of player be an upgrade. And if 1316 01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:16,160 Speaker 1: you want to go back to the offseason, say they 1317 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:18,160 Speaker 1: maybe should have paid somebody, we can have that argument, 1318 01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:19,400 Speaker 1: but that doesn't really do anything, right. 1319 01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:21,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great point. Like the other one is 1320 01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,320 Speaker 2: obviously Jonah Williams. And you know why didn't they do that? 1321 01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:27,520 Speaker 2: Ship is saled? Like I I agree with you. We 1322 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:29,600 Speaker 2: both said on this show that we would have went 1323 01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,640 Speaker 2: after Jonah Williams. Yeah, in free agency, they didn't do it. 1324 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:34,360 Speaker 2: My guess is the reason why they didn't do it 1325 01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:36,600 Speaker 2: is because they viewed him purely as a right tackle 1326 01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 2: and they thought that they had brought on Wennu back 1327 01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:40,280 Speaker 2: to play right tackle. 1328 01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:42,480 Speaker 1: I think because just the Packers thing they don't do 1329 01:03:42,520 --> 01:03:43,480 Speaker 1: free agency. 1330 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:45,320 Speaker 2: That could have been it too. All right, Ted is 1331 01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:46,520 Speaker 2: in Wyoming? What's up? Ted? 1332 01:03:49,520 --> 01:03:49,640 Speaker 3: Hi? 1333 01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:51,280 Speaker 4: Guys? I love listening to your show. 1334 01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:51,880 Speaker 2: Thank you. 1335 01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:56,520 Speaker 4: I was curious about some things about the Brandon a 1336 01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:00,120 Speaker 4: discussion discussion I'd heard on one show someone saying that 1337 01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:04,640 Speaker 4: he could contribute two more wins to the Patriots this season. 1338 01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 4: Who really cares about that? Winning four or winning seven? 1339 01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 4: And I'm wondering along those lines, if Elliott Wolf is 1340 01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:18,560 Speaker 4: thinking a our target for being a contender is not 1341 01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:23,040 Speaker 4: this year for sure, probably not twenty five. It's probably 1342 01:04:23,080 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 4: twenty six, when May's in the third year of his 1343 01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:30,640 Speaker 4: rookie contract. So we need to sign people, draft and 1344 01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:33,520 Speaker 4: do everything in line to have a three year window 1345 01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:37,360 Speaker 4: starting then to be a contender, which to me also 1346 01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:41,760 Speaker 4: suggests that you don't sign expensive free agent now and 1347 01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:44,720 Speaker 4: eat the first two years of the contract when you 1348 01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,840 Speaker 4: really need those people in that three year period. I'm 1349 01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:49,200 Speaker 4: just wondering what your thoughts on that are. 1350 01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:52,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks for the call, Ed. Yeah, we've been kicking 1351 01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:56,080 Speaker 2: that idea around for weeks, right that when's the right 1352 01:04:56,120 --> 01:04:58,240 Speaker 2: time to strike in the window and all that kind 1353 01:04:58,280 --> 01:05:02,640 Speaker 2: of stuff. There's definitely a lot to what Ted is saying, 1354 01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:05,600 Speaker 2: and he laid it out nicely there. I would just 1355 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:08,720 Speaker 2: say that when a player Brandon Nyuk's caliber becomes available 1356 01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:12,080 Speaker 2: via trade, you still aggressively pursue the player, right. You 1357 01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:14,480 Speaker 2: want as many good football players on the team as possible, 1358 01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:17,240 Speaker 2: So it's not like you're gonna sit there and just 1359 01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:20,120 Speaker 2: not call the forty nine ers. When a receiver like 1360 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,680 Speaker 2: that comes available. You're gonna still do it if you can. 1361 01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 2: But yeah, they realistically, I don't necessarily like looking at it, 1362 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:33,400 Speaker 2: of he would add two wins, he'd have three wins, 1363 01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:37,400 Speaker 2: because it changes so many There's such a butterfly effect 1364 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:40,040 Speaker 2: of everything that goes into it that I think it's 1365 01:05:40,040 --> 01:05:45,000 Speaker 2: hard to say in a vacuum this receiver would add 1366 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:53,200 Speaker 2: x amount of wins because one, don't you there's a 1367 01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:57,480 Speaker 2: little bit of just like human element to it. Of 1368 01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:01,080 Speaker 2: like if We came out to practice week for the 1369 01:06:01,160 --> 01:06:05,120 Speaker 2: joint practice with the Eagles, and Brandon Nyuk was in 1370 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:08,800 Speaker 2: a Patriots practice Jersey. Don't you think that the whole 1371 01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:15,480 Speaker 2: mantra around the team, the juice from the fans, the 1372 01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:18,920 Speaker 2: confidence that all those that it all improves, right, Like, 1373 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:23,880 Speaker 2: everybody is gonna be jacked up for that second. I've 1374 01:06:23,920 --> 01:06:27,080 Speaker 2: always subscribed to the fact that it's like an offensive hierarchy, right, 1375 01:06:27,160 --> 01:06:30,880 Speaker 2: Like Brandon Nyuk puts everybody in the proper spot in 1376 01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:34,960 Speaker 2: the pecking quarter. So it's not just taking his thirteen 1377 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:37,480 Speaker 2: hundred yards from the Niners last year and putting it 1378 01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:40,840 Speaker 2: into the Patriots offense. He makes Pop Douglas better, He 1379 01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:43,200 Speaker 2: makes Jalen Polk a little bit better, He makes Baker 1380 01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:45,200 Speaker 2: a little bit better, he makes Hunter Henry a little 1381 01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:48,240 Speaker 2: bit better. He makes your run game a little bit better. Right, Like, 1382 01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:51,200 Speaker 2: all of these elements kind of improve just because now 1383 01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:54,120 Speaker 2: you have, like this, this bona fide number one receiver 1384 01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:58,680 Speaker 2: that it all funnels through and around. And that's why 1385 01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 2: I really felt like, if they could pull off this 1386 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,240 Speaker 2: trade this year, and granted this is a big if, 1387 01:07:05,240 --> 01:07:08,959 Speaker 2: if they could have gotten just representable quarterback and line 1388 01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:13,439 Speaker 2: play this year with this these skill players, I thought 1389 01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:17,240 Speaker 2: they could have made the playoffs. And when I say that, yeah, 1390 01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:21,240 Speaker 2: just keep in mind what that means now in today's NFL, 1391 01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:23,280 Speaker 2: Like we talk about this off the air about baseball 1392 01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 2: all the time now too, Right, there's seven teams in 1393 01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 2: the AFC that make the playoffs. The Steelers were a 1394 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:30,560 Speaker 2: ten win team last year and made the playoffs. The 1395 01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:33,360 Speaker 2: Patriots beat the Steelers with Bailey Zappy at the as 1396 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:36,760 Speaker 2: quarterback in a Thursday night game. Last year. The Packers 1397 01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:38,760 Speaker 2: were nine to eight and made the playoffs in the NFC. 1398 01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:40,439 Speaker 2: So I'm not sitting here and telling you that they're 1399 01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:42,439 Speaker 2: gonna beat the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game because 1400 01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:45,920 Speaker 2: they have Brandon Aiyuk. Just don't remember the gap between 1401 01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:49,040 Speaker 2: the bad teams and like the mediocre teams, Like, really, 1402 01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:52,400 Speaker 2: isn't that high, like a Patriots that much worse than 1403 01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:55,040 Speaker 2: the Steelers were last year? Probably not. 1404 01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:58,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. I also just think you don't a bigger picture. 1405 01:07:58,800 --> 01:08:01,360 Speaker 1: You don't want losing to become habitual. Yeah, Like they 1406 01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:03,960 Speaker 1: had their down year last year, and maybe they took 1407 01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,160 Speaker 1: their foot off the gas at the end and got 1408 01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:08,680 Speaker 1: the draft pick and all that but you start going 1409 01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:11,000 Speaker 1: on with that for two, three, four years and suddenly 1410 01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:12,960 Speaker 1: forget how to get out of it. Yeah, and you 1411 01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:17,800 Speaker 1: never want bad season. They're necessary sometimes a season like 1412 01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:20,720 Speaker 1: that sometimes is necessary, but you want it to be isolated. 1413 01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:23,040 Speaker 1: You shouldn't have to have multiple and so to say, well, 1414 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuk adds a couple of wins, but we don't 1415 01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:29,240 Speaker 1: want to go there yet. Nope. That's once you start 1416 01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:31,040 Speaker 1: having that approach, get out. Somebody else has to run 1417 01:08:31,080 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 1: the team. You should. You should be in there trying 1418 01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:34,439 Speaker 1: to win as many games as possible. 1419 01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:37,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I really, we all would have done it. They 1420 01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:42,080 Speaker 2: just this was this was up to Brandon Nayuk, and 1421 01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:44,679 Speaker 2: Brandon Nyke decided he didn't want to come here like that. 1422 01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 2: That's how I'm gonna look at it. That's how I feel. 1423 01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:51,599 Speaker 2: A when question here from Kyle and the email about 1424 01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:53,960 Speaker 2: Matthew Judon, and it is a good point to bring 1425 01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:55,320 Speaker 2: up and then we can get into our three up, 1426 01:08:55,360 --> 01:08:58,840 Speaker 2: three down to another call to Yes, lots of calls 1427 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,800 Speaker 2: and emails today.

It was a big deal. 1433 01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:14,000 Speaker 2: No, I just totally well that's why I totally forgot. 1434 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:17,400 Speaker 2: But we appreciate it, like I we're we're messing around. 1435 01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:20,040 Speaker 2: We obviously appreciate it. What do we calculate that's like 1436 01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:22,280 Speaker 2: eight days of listening. 1437 01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:26,840 Speaker 1: It's over eight days, just eight point three days the 1438 01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:30,719 Speaker 1: episode stop, it would be yeah, eight days, eight plus days. 1439 01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:34,960 Speaker 2: That's impressive. Yeah, we think. Thank you genuinely, I mean 1440 01:09:35,040 --> 01:09:40,160 Speaker 2: it sincerely, Matthew Judon back to football. I think it's 1441 01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:43,320 Speaker 2: time to trade. This is Kyle talking here. I think 1442 01:09:43,360 --> 01:09:46,080 Speaker 2: it's time to trade Matthew Judin. No matter what you 1443 01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:48,840 Speaker 2: get back, he is becoming a problem player and we 1444 01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:51,479 Speaker 2: need to get rid of him before he starts to 1445 01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 2: affect the locker room negatively. I just want to say, 1446 01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:58,519 Speaker 2: off the top of to this email, it bummed me 1447 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 2: out watching him at the podium other day. Yeah, because 1448 01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:04,840 Speaker 2: this has been a guy for three plus years that 1449 01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:10,040 Speaker 2: has been jovial, excited to be here, wanting to recruit 1450 01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:12,160 Speaker 2: other whether he's successful or not. I know we always 1451 01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:13,960 Speaker 2: joke about it, you know, with his social media. But 1452 01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:19,880 Speaker 2: he was a good patriot like Brandon. I yeah, right, 1453 01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:22,960 Speaker 2: he was a fun guy to be around, brought a 1454 01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:24,880 Speaker 2: ton of energy. I thought. I think he's great with 1455 01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:28,960 Speaker 2: the fans. I think he's great dude to be around. Here. 1456 01:10:29,360 --> 01:10:31,519 Speaker 2: He looked like a broken human being the other day. 1457 01:10:31,800 --> 01:10:35,080 Speaker 2: And it's it's dunk to see like the life taken 1458 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:38,559 Speaker 2: out of him from this saga in this situation, And 1459 01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:42,439 Speaker 2: that's not indicative of who Matthew Judon is. Like, that's 1460 01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 2: not Matthew Judon. We all know who, not that we're 1461 01:10:45,439 --> 01:10:47,080 Speaker 2: best friends with him or anything, but we all know 1462 01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:50,960 Speaker 2: what he's like around the facility and in press conferences 1463 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:54,760 Speaker 2: and and stuff like that. And that just wasn't him 1464 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:57,639 Speaker 2: in that press conference, right, and uh, And now it's 1465 01:10:57,680 --> 01:11:01,760 Speaker 2: tough to see what I trade him for no matter what, 1466 01:11:02,160 --> 01:11:04,519 Speaker 2: Like the email says, no matter what you get back now, 1467 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:07,439 Speaker 2: I would not do that. But we're at the point 1468 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:10,840 Speaker 2: now where we're at a real fork in the road 1469 01:11:10,920 --> 01:11:13,320 Speaker 2: of either he needs to be here or he's not. 1470 01:11:13,560 --> 01:11:15,280 Speaker 2: And by be here, I mean he needs to be 1471 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:18,720 Speaker 2: paid to, even if it's just a wet his beak 1472 01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:21,160 Speaker 2: to make him happy. We're at the point where he 1473 01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:23,439 Speaker 2: needs to be compensated or he needs to be gone. 1474 01:11:24,200 --> 01:11:26,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think this actually brings me another point. 1475 01:11:26,280 --> 01:11:28,000 Speaker 1: I wanted to bring up the fallout of the Brandon 1476 01:11:28,040 --> 01:11:30,920 Speaker 1: Ayuk thing and some of what's leaked. Yeah, if I'm 1477 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:33,160 Speaker 1: Matthew Judah, I'm sitting there saying, you were really give 1478 01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:36,679 Speaker 1: this guy thirty million dollars. You're not that thirty million 1479 01:11:36,720 --> 01:11:40,320 Speaker 1: dollars now just sitting there. I want a new contract. 1480 01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:44,400 Speaker 1: What is Brandon Ayuk, who's never set foot in this facility, 1481 01:11:45,640 --> 01:11:47,879 Speaker 1: dude to earn that thirty million that I and obviously 1482 01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:49,880 Speaker 1: like Ayuk's a good player, but you get what I'm saying. Yeah, 1483 01:11:49,960 --> 01:11:52,000 Speaker 1: there's money to be spent. There's money to be spent 1484 01:11:52,080 --> 01:11:55,240 Speaker 1: on the roster that's now not being spent. Matthew Judain 1485 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:59,280 Speaker 1: sees that I would not be surprised that there's another 1486 01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:02,960 Speaker 1: sort of something in lines of his contract issues, in 1487 01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:07,120 Speaker 1: the fallout of this the other thing. And there's a 1488 01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:09,000 Speaker 1: lot of unknowns here, but it's just something that crossed 1489 01:12:09,040 --> 01:12:12,280 Speaker 1: my mind. Part of that report was that the trade 1490 01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:17,800 Speaker 1: in place involved Kendrick Bourne. Yeah, any time anytime you 1491 01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 1: have a player come up in trade rumors, there's a 1492 01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:23,559 Speaker 1: conversation that needs to be at because you're essentially saying 1493 01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:27,200 Speaker 1: you don't want that guy. On top of that, Kendrick 1494 01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:29,080 Speaker 1: Bourne just signed a new contract with his team six 1495 01:12:29,120 --> 01:12:33,519 Speaker 1: months ago. Yeah, and there in certain leagues you're not 1496 01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:36,040 Speaker 1: allowed to trade players you re signed within a certain 1497 01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:37,840 Speaker 1: period of time. In the NFL you can, but nobody 1498 01:12:37,880 --> 01:12:40,560 Speaker 1: does it because it sends a really bad message to 1499 01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,000 Speaker 1: the player and honestly to the agent. The agent's are 1500 01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:44,439 Speaker 1: part of this because now he has to go back 1501 01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:48,960 Speaker 1: to his clients right and tell his clients that they 1502 01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:51,439 Speaker 1: should trust your team when you know, how do they 1503 01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:52,880 Speaker 1: know that you're not going to be the next one? 1504 01:12:52,880 --> 01:12:54,640 Speaker 1: And they just signed all these guys to extensions and 1505 01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:56,639 Speaker 1: they're gonna be looking at I thought I was getting 1506 01:12:56,640 --> 01:12:59,360 Speaker 1: some security. We kept hearing to Von gottschat talk about 1507 01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:02,160 Speaker 1: that security. I thought I was getting some security by 1508 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:04,599 Speaker 1: signing this extension. I might have to move. I might 1509 01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:06,280 Speaker 1: have to drop it all and move at any given time. 1510 01:13:06,360 --> 01:13:09,360 Speaker 1: So maybe they talked out with Kendrick Borne ahead of time. 1511 01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:11,880 Speaker 1: Maybe he's good with it, Maybe they cleared it with 1512 01:13:11,880 --> 01:13:16,080 Speaker 1: his agent. All that it It needs to be addressed 1513 01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:18,720 Speaker 1: and it won't happen publicly, and we won't know the 1514 01:13:18,800 --> 01:13:23,920 Speaker 1: outcome of this, but trading, putting a player in a 1515 01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:28,600 Speaker 1: trade request that just signed a contract is a dangerous, dangerous, 1516 01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:32,280 Speaker 1: dangerous game. And you hope because that, to me, could 1517 01:13:32,360 --> 01:13:33,680 Speaker 1: be more of an issue in the locker room than 1518 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:36,000 Speaker 1: than the Juda and stuff I go back to and 1519 01:13:36,080 --> 01:13:39,080 Speaker 1: it's apples and oranges a little bit because it's different leagues. 1520 01:13:39,120 --> 01:13:42,839 Speaker 1: But you remember last summer when the Celtics put Malcolm 1521 01:13:42,840 --> 01:13:45,479 Speaker 1: Brogden in the original Marcus Smart trade and it fell 1522 01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:49,679 Speaker 1: through and what happened Marcus Malcolm Brogna said, you know what, fine, 1523 01:13:49,680 --> 01:13:50,559 Speaker 1: you don't want me to trade me? 1524 01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:52,360 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they had, and then they had. 1525 01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:53,760 Speaker 1: To trade him because he was involved in that He 1526 01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:56,680 Speaker 1: had I think he had recently signed like when that 1527 01:13:56,800 --> 01:13:58,640 Speaker 1: trade happened. When he got traded the Celtics, I think 1528 01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:01,439 Speaker 1: it was a new contract or something. So like, I 1529 01:14:01,479 --> 01:14:03,400 Speaker 1: don't mean to sound the alarm about it. I don't know. 1530 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:05,880 Speaker 1: And Kendrick Bourne is the guy that would just be 1531 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:08,599 Speaker 1: like cool with it because he's just such a chill 1532 01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:10,120 Speaker 1: guy and what's best with the team. But that's the 1533 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:12,080 Speaker 1: guy that's talked about wanting to be a part of 1534 01:14:12,080 --> 01:14:14,960 Speaker 1: the rebuild, want to help turn things around. He's also 1535 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:18,120 Speaker 1: probably your best receiver as things stand right now, assuming 1536 01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:22,760 Speaker 1: he comes back from that knee. 1537 01:14:21,200 --> 01:14:21,760 Speaker 2: That I. 1538 01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:25,919 Speaker 1: My eyebrow went up when I saw Kendrick Bourne reported 1539 01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:27,880 Speaker 1: as part of that. That is something I imagine the 1540 01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:31,120 Speaker 1: Patriots did not want out there unless the deal got done, 1541 01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:33,280 Speaker 1: and it is. It is going to be a challenge 1542 01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:35,360 Speaker 1: for Gerrodmeo and Nelly Wolf. This is an early challenge 1543 01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:36,120 Speaker 1: for this new regime. 1544 01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:38,920 Speaker 2: The only I agree with everything he said. Yeah, The 1545 01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:44,759 Speaker 2: only possible way that this doesn't fester into something bigger 1546 01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:49,559 Speaker 2: is he's played it in San Francisco before with Kyle 1547 01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:54,760 Speaker 2: Shanahan their Super Bowl team. He's already paid, like in 1548 01:14:54,880 --> 01:14:57,240 Speaker 2: his shoes. You could look at it as Kenrick Bourne 1549 01:14:57,240 --> 01:14:59,760 Speaker 2: and say, as much as I want to be here 1550 01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:01,760 Speaker 2: and be a part of this and try to turn 1551 01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:04,400 Speaker 2: things around here, it's a pretty good situation. 1552 01:15:05,320 --> 01:15:08,880 Speaker 1: But it's also did they have that conversation with him 1553 01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:10,960 Speaker 1: when it was first floated or did he learn like 1554 01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:14,000 Speaker 1: we did the other night right like there? Maybe he 1555 01:15:14,120 --> 01:15:17,160 Speaker 1: was Maybe they went and said, look, we. 1556 01:15:17,160 --> 01:15:19,240 Speaker 2: You know they want a receiver back that can play 1557 01:15:19,240 --> 01:15:20,320 Speaker 2: this year for them, right, we. 1558 01:15:20,320 --> 01:15:22,559 Speaker 1: Need a guy that's that's gonna be a little bit younger, 1559 01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:24,840 Speaker 1: not coming off the injury, a little more explosive, like 1560 01:15:25,280 --> 01:15:28,080 Speaker 1: we're setting like we're sending you somewhere you're familiar, you know, 1561 01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:30,080 Speaker 1: and maybe he signs off on it, but we don't know. 1562 01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:32,200 Speaker 1: I'm sure he'll be asked about it. We don't know, 1563 01:15:32,720 --> 01:15:36,800 Speaker 1: but it's it's an awkward conversation. And Drod Meta said 1564 01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:38,639 Speaker 1: the other day he had a good conversation with Kendrick Borne. 1565 01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:42,080 Speaker 1: But that's it's not just Kendrick Boorne. It's on one hand, 1566 01:15:42,160 --> 01:15:43,920 Speaker 1: other guys in the locker room, other guys who just 1567 01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:48,040 Speaker 1: signed extensions who now understandably maybe looking over their shoulder 1568 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:51,320 Speaker 1: whenever trade conversations come up. And it's also I don't 1569 01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:54,280 Speaker 1: know actually who Kendrick Bourne's agent is, but when you're 1570 01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:56,639 Speaker 1: dealing with that agent and that agency in the future, 1571 01:15:56,680 --> 01:15:58,960 Speaker 1: it's going to be, well, you know, my player wants 1572 01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 1: to play for you, how do I we need a 1573 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:05,920 Speaker 1: little something more here? Because his agency is disruptive sports. 1574 01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:10,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, they have a few Patriots receivers that are clients, 1575 01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:12,800 Speaker 2: do they Okay, I know Taekwon's a client of theirs 1576 01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:13,080 Speaker 2: as well. 1577 01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:16,200 Speaker 1: I think so, but it's more pending for agent clients 1578 01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:18,120 Speaker 1: or guys that want to you know, re signed in 1579 01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:21,960 Speaker 1: the future. That all right, well, you're you're committing to 1580 01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:23,559 Speaker 1: my guy, but how do we know you're really committing 1581 01:16:23,560 --> 01:16:23,920 Speaker 1: to my guy? 1582 01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:27,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, last point on on Judan, because I think 1583 01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:29,599 Speaker 2: you laid out the Born stuff nicely. The Judon thing 1584 01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:34,880 Speaker 2: Dad needs to be resolved one way or another. It's 1585 01:16:35,120 --> 01:16:38,320 Speaker 2: gone too far at this point. And now I'm not 1586 01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:42,280 Speaker 2: necessarily as worried about as the emailer about the locker 1587 01:16:42,360 --> 01:16:44,240 Speaker 2: room and all. I'm not worried. I'm just worried about 1588 01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:49,040 Speaker 2: Matthew Judon. Like he's either he's still got good football 1589 01:16:49,160 --> 01:16:52,519 Speaker 2: left in him. He's a great player. It's either going 1590 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:54,200 Speaker 2: to be here or someplace else. But we're at the 1591 01:16:54,200 --> 01:16:57,120 Speaker 2: point now where the season's right around in the corner. 1592 01:16:57,200 --> 01:17:01,160 Speaker 2: They need to make a decision, and he's He says 1593 01:17:01,200 --> 01:17:03,720 Speaker 2: he's gonna play under the current contract because he has 1594 01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:07,000 Speaker 2: no choice, which to an extent he doesn't because he 1595 01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:10,200 Speaker 2: needs to play well to be paid next off season 1596 01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:13,360 Speaker 2: because he's coming off the injury. So that that's fair, 1597 01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:15,719 Speaker 2: But you don't want to put a player out there 1598 01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:20,120 Speaker 2: that's this unhappy with the situation and for every Brandon 1599 01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:22,400 Speaker 2: I you g rumor and all this kind of stuff. 1600 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:25,519 Speaker 2: There's money going out of Foxborough right now and it's 1601 01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:27,960 Speaker 2: not going to Matthew Judon and and. 1602 01:17:27,960 --> 01:17:30,120 Speaker 1: How does he not say that as a slight Yeah? 1603 01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:33,639 Speaker 2: Absolutely, all right. Kendall is in North Carolina. What's up? Kendall? 1604 01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:37,200 Speaker 7: Hey, how you guys doing good? 1605 01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:37,639 Speaker 4: All? 1606 01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:40,000 Speaker 7: Right? Things? I want to ask you how you think 1607 01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:41,960 Speaker 7: the wide receiver de charge is going to shake out? 1608 01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:46,240 Speaker 7: What'll safe out between now and week one and number two? 1609 01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:50,080 Speaker 7: Have y'all seen enough Javon Baker that he could possibly 1610 01:17:50,680 --> 01:17:52,439 Speaker 7: possibly be the start X wide receiver. 1611 01:17:52,520 --> 01:17:53,040 Speaker 4: Appreciate it? 1612 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:55,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks for the call, Kendall. Good question. H I'm 1613 01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:59,960 Speaker 2: working on preliminary roster projection. Obviously tomorrow night might change 1614 01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:03,160 Speaker 2: few things. But I'll give you my six guys right 1615 01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:08,439 Speaker 2: now that I have at receiver. Obviously we have Pop Douglas, 1616 01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:12,400 Speaker 2: Jayvon Baker, Jalen pol kJ Osborne, I'm ready with I'm 1617 01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:14,519 Speaker 2: there for you with KG Osborne, right, we're on the 1618 01:18:14,520 --> 01:18:17,080 Speaker 2: same page now with him. kJ Osborne's on this team. 1619 01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:22,120 Speaker 2: So Pop Douglas, Baker, Osborne and now for right now, 1620 01:18:22,160 --> 01:18:25,920 Speaker 2: depending on what happens with Kendrick Bourne obviously with his situation. 1621 01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 2: If he's off pupp then this changes things. If he isn't, 1622 01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:31,000 Speaker 2: then then I'm sticking with this six. I'm kipping both 1623 01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:34,320 Speaker 2: Rigger and Taekwon for now because I feel like those 1624 01:18:34,320 --> 01:18:37,080 Speaker 2: two guys are going to be in a never ending 1625 01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:39,640 Speaker 2: loop of position battle of who's gonna get on the 1626 01:18:39,640 --> 01:18:41,880 Speaker 2: field each week to be the speed guy, right like 1627 01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:45,160 Speaker 2: the vertical stretch element to the offense. So I have 1628 01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:47,360 Speaker 2: both those guys on, which would mean that like guys 1629 01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:51,160 Speaker 2: like Juju and Kashan Boody are cut off the team 1630 01:18:51,240 --> 01:18:51,599 Speaker 2: right now. 1631 01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:55,400 Speaker 1: So Kishan Boody, excuse me. Kashan Boody has had a 1632 01:18:55,439 --> 01:18:58,040 Speaker 1: good couple of practices year. Yes, he's pop more on 1633 01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:00,720 Speaker 1: my radar, and it's taekwonk and be healthy at the 1634 01:19:00,720 --> 01:19:01,360 Speaker 1: start of season. 1635 01:19:01,800 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 2: Good question, And it's definitely still up in the air 1636 01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:06,800 Speaker 2: with those two guys obviously. You know, well, I'll probably 1637 01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:10,880 Speaker 2: do one more before before the actual cutdown day in 1638 01:19:10,960 --> 01:19:13,040 Speaker 2: terms of projection, and I'm not ready to write this 1639 01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:16,519 Speaker 2: in Sharpe yet, but my my thing with Kaishan Boody 1640 01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:22,120 Speaker 2: is that his skill set is so redundant to the 1641 01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:25,600 Speaker 2: other guys that they have on the roster, whereas at 1642 01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:28,559 Speaker 2: least with Rager and Taekwon, they bring a different element 1643 01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:32,639 Speaker 2: than the other players. Like if everyone just assume everybody's 1644 01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:37,080 Speaker 2: healthy for a second, right, how does kaish On Boody 1645 01:19:37,600 --> 01:19:41,760 Speaker 2: get on the field over Born Polk and Baker and Osborne? 1646 01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:44,719 Speaker 2: All four of those guys play exactly the same style 1647 01:19:44,920 --> 01:19:48,559 Speaker 2: essentially as him, like similar body type, similar roles, everything. 1648 01:19:48,960 --> 01:19:53,639 Speaker 2: So there's basically four guys in his way in that role. 1649 01:19:54,479 --> 01:19:56,439 Speaker 2: I just don't see how he gets on the field. 1650 01:19:56,920 --> 01:19:58,640 Speaker 2: And yeah, if you can, if you want to make 1651 01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:00,479 Speaker 2: the argument that they're keeping him off the on the 1652 01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:03,320 Speaker 2: roster because the developmental upside and things like that, fine, 1653 01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:06,519 Speaker 2: But now we're in year two, Like, how long are 1654 01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:08,400 Speaker 2: you going to keep a guy because he might be 1655 01:20:08,520 --> 01:20:11,960 Speaker 2: the guy that we saw in lsu A as a freshman, right, well. 1656 01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:14,280 Speaker 1: I mean, why are you gonna keep Taekwon and Rager? 1657 01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:17,400 Speaker 1: Neither of those guys. It's this again, it's the same 1658 01:20:17,400 --> 01:20:19,400 Speaker 1: skill set, and you can probably get Rager on the 1659 01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:21,719 Speaker 1: practice squad Taikwon I practice. 1660 01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:23,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Taekwon is more likely on the practice 1661 01:20:23,720 --> 01:20:24,479 Speaker 2: squad than Rager. 1662 01:20:24,680 --> 01:20:26,400 Speaker 1: So my points, you can get one on the practice 1663 01:20:26,400 --> 01:20:29,320 Speaker 1: squad Booty you might lose. I think having depth would 1664 01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:31,840 Speaker 1: be good. I don't know. I think it's pretty even 1665 01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:34,200 Speaker 1: right now between them. I wouldn't keep Taekwon and Rager. 1666 01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:36,200 Speaker 1: That's redundant. You can definitely get one of those guys 1667 01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:37,760 Speaker 1: on the practice squad if you want to keep them 1668 01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:39,880 Speaker 1: both in the building at that point, I would get 1669 01:20:39,880 --> 01:20:41,360 Speaker 1: you to give the row spot to Booty or give 1670 01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:44,080 Speaker 1: it to like another corner or alignment or something. 1671 01:20:44,160 --> 01:20:47,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I could see maybe only carrying five. My argument 1672 01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:50,720 Speaker 2: with with Rager and Taekwon both making it is more 1673 01:20:50,800 --> 01:20:55,479 Speaker 2: that it's been they've been kind of trading off, like 1674 01:20:55,520 --> 01:20:57,800 Speaker 2: when who's hot and who's not. Like right now, I 1675 01:20:57,800 --> 01:21:00,920 Speaker 2: would say that Rager has has been okay the last 1676 01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:03,960 Speaker 2: couple of days. Then like Taekwon had like, you know, 1677 01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:06,920 Speaker 2: a stretch there where he was making some plays and 1678 01:21:06,960 --> 01:21:10,120 Speaker 2: then Rager and the non padded practices probably stood out 1679 01:21:10,120 --> 01:21:11,400 Speaker 2: a little, you know what I mean, Like it keeps 1680 01:21:11,400 --> 01:21:14,040 Speaker 2: see sawing back and forth. Right, So I wonder if 1681 01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:17,519 Speaker 2: that battle just continues throughout the season and it's almost 1682 01:21:17,560 --> 01:21:20,160 Speaker 2: like riding the hot goalie, right, it's like you ride 1683 01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:22,280 Speaker 2: the hot hand of like which speed guy is the 1684 01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:25,000 Speaker 2: guy that's you know, popping in practice and is you 1685 01:21:25,040 --> 01:21:27,599 Speaker 2: know playing well on Sundays and all that kind of stuff. 1686 01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:31,559 Speaker 2: I just think that they're The way that I look 1687 01:21:31,600 --> 01:21:33,519 Speaker 2: at it is that they might lean a little bit 1688 01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:37,280 Speaker 2: more towards true speed, yeah, and dynamic you know speed 1689 01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:40,519 Speaker 2: than a guy like Keishawan Boody. And the other thing 1690 01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:44,000 Speaker 2: with Booty that I've noticed at least is that he's, 1691 01:21:44,160 --> 01:21:46,040 Speaker 2: you know, some of the catches that he's made, like 1692 01:21:46,080 --> 01:21:49,519 Speaker 2: are not against Christian Gonzales and Jonathan Jones and you know, 1693 01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:51,840 Speaker 2: guys that are gonna be here in terms of cornerbacks. 1694 01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:53,920 Speaker 2: So let's see what he does, you know again some 1695 01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:57,160 Speaker 2: better corners, Like maybe he does earn some reps, but 1696 01:21:57,439 --> 01:22:00,840 Speaker 2: we always talk about who's on what field or what 1697 01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:05,160 Speaker 2: group or whatever, and Booty has been pretty regularly with 1698 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:07,559 Speaker 2: like the threes, you know, or maybe like a couple 1699 01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:10,320 Speaker 2: of two's reps here and there too. So I don't 1700 01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:14,720 Speaker 2: think he's trending upwards in that sense, as you could 1701 01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:18,439 Speaker 2: tell on that list, Juju Smith Schuster is not. He's not. 1702 01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:19,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's not close. 1703 01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:23,799 Speaker 2: No, not close to the second question, with Javon Baker 1704 01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:27,840 Speaker 2: starting X receiver, just the second one into our our 1705 01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:28,599 Speaker 2: ups and downs. 1706 01:22:28,680 --> 01:22:29,680 Speaker 1: Do take the last call? 1707 01:22:29,840 --> 01:22:31,280 Speaker 2: You want to take the last call? Do that? 1708 01:22:31,280 --> 01:22:33,840 Speaker 1: That's kind enough to wait this song? 1709 01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:36,439 Speaker 2: That's fair. Hassan is in Springfield? What's up to the son? 1710 01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:38,880 Speaker 3: How you doing? 1711 01:22:38,920 --> 01:22:39,040 Speaker 4: So? 1712 01:22:39,080 --> 01:22:42,840 Speaker 3: Going back to that question about the off linement, there's 1713 01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:46,280 Speaker 3: guys like lend me Tunzel, you know, Tristan wars so 1714 01:22:46,439 --> 01:22:52,519 Speaker 3: On Armstead, Jordan Malata Sewell, there's guys like that that 1715 01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:56,160 Speaker 3: even though they have their contracts, there's still out the 1716 01:22:56,240 --> 01:22:57,759 Speaker 3: debt that we can go after. 1717 01:23:00,080 --> 01:23:02,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, Hassan, I mean you think the Lions are going 1718 01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:06,200 Speaker 2: to trade penny stool to the Patriots? Like realistically, Like 1719 01:23:06,240 --> 01:23:07,839 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to be a jerk, I'm just like realistic. 1720 01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:10,160 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, yeah, I know say no. But you know, 1721 01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:14,280 Speaker 3: so like three first rounders in there? 1722 01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:22,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I like, yeah, yeah, I mean, I 1723 01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:24,600 Speaker 2: hear you, Hissan, thank you for the call. I'm not 1724 01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:26,559 Speaker 2: trying to be an a whole, but yes, if you 1725 01:23:26,560 --> 01:23:29,160 Speaker 2: threw three first round picks at a team, you know, 1726 01:23:29,200 --> 01:23:31,880 Speaker 2: at uh at the Texans for Larmie Tunzel, would they 1727 01:23:31,880 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 2: maybe pick up the phone and listen like possible, right, 1728 01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:36,200 Speaker 2: but that's not realistic. 1729 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:37,920 Speaker 1: You better have every other piece in place when you 1730 01:23:37,960 --> 01:23:39,080 Speaker 1: make that move. And this team doesn't. 1731 01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:41,960 Speaker 2: No, I mean you're not You're not making that move right. Uh. 1732 01:23:42,240 --> 01:23:45,880 Speaker 2: You know, Tristan WARF's literally just signed a record breaking 1733 01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:49,160 Speaker 2: extension like three days ago. Like, he's not going anywhere. 1734 01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:52,200 Speaker 2: Penny Stools maybe other than Trent Williams is probably the 1735 01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:55,120 Speaker 2: second best tackle in football. He's not going anywhere, right. 1736 01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:58,360 Speaker 2: Laramie Tunzel is a top ten tackle in the NFL 1737 01:23:58,720 --> 01:24:01,400 Speaker 2: on a team that's trying to win. Yeah, so he's 1738 01:24:01,439 --> 01:24:04,560 Speaker 2: not going anywhere. I hear you. We're all trying to 1739 01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:08,280 Speaker 2: look for tackles. I get it. But once you start 1740 01:24:08,280 --> 01:24:10,840 Speaker 2: to get into this, yes, if you call the team 1741 01:24:11,360 --> 01:24:14,400 Speaker 2: that maybe is in that middle category, you know, and 1742 01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:16,400 Speaker 2: you find the team as a starting tackle, you like, 1743 01:24:16,479 --> 01:24:18,080 Speaker 2: that's sort of in the middle, you know. I saw. 1744 01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:20,720 Speaker 2: I did briefly check it on the chat. Like a 1745 01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:23,120 Speaker 2: guy like Jedrick Wills from the Cleveland Browns. He was 1746 01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:26,519 Speaker 2: probably near towards near the end here, closer to the 1747 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:28,719 Speaker 2: end in the beginning. But if you called the Browns 1748 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:32,400 Speaker 2: right now and you gave them a if you overpaid 1749 01:24:33,040 --> 01:24:35,639 Speaker 2: for the player, could you convince them to take it? Yeah? 1750 01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:38,040 Speaker 2: Maybe right, Like if you're giving up like a second 1751 01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:39,880 Speaker 2: round pick for him, which is a lot. 1752 01:24:40,040 --> 01:24:41,960 Speaker 1: You're doing the rams thing at that point where you're 1753 01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:43,960 Speaker 1: just blowing through all the picks to add players. But 1754 01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:46,160 Speaker 1: you have to have enough of a core in place, 1755 01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:49,240 Speaker 1: and they don't. Somebody also in the tweeted at us 1756 01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:52,760 Speaker 1: about Jack conklin Ya that team's got to win. They 1757 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:55,720 Speaker 1: gave to Shawn wattson all that money, and you know, 1758 01:24:55,760 --> 01:24:58,120 Speaker 1: Stefanski just kind of blew out half his staff to 1759 01:24:58,160 --> 01:25:00,880 Speaker 1: save his own ass. Like they're not moving on from 1760 01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:01,639 Speaker 1: tackles right now. 1761 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:04,800 Speaker 2: All right, let's get into three up, three down. I look, 1762 01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:06,559 Speaker 2: I I wish that they could trade for Penny Seol, 1763 01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:08,320 Speaker 2: like you know, I wish he was available. 1764 01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:10,479 Speaker 1: That's just great, a lot of problems. 1765 01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:13,720 Speaker 2: That's not the world we're living, all right, where I like, 1766 01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:16,320 Speaker 2: I like. I like to say we're a positive show. 1767 01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:19,000 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna start with the ups. Okay, Okay, my 1768 01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:21,479 Speaker 2: number one up and this is we're calling this from 1769 01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:23,240 Speaker 2: padded practices. Is that what we're doing? 1770 01:25:23,439 --> 01:25:25,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, because last time we did a show it there's 1771 01:25:25,200 --> 01:25:26,200 Speaker 1: been a padded practice. 1772 01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:28,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, they've been I think the first couple are but 1773 01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:31,280 Speaker 2: sure padded practice. Yeah, whatever, last week or whatever you 1774 01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:34,760 Speaker 2: want to call it. Number one up Hunter Henry. I 1775 01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:38,680 Speaker 2: think Hunterry has been great. Uh He's come alive here 1776 01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:41,479 Speaker 2: in this like second week camp, making some plays down 1777 01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:44,679 Speaker 2: the field, which I think this this av got fans 1778 01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:47,040 Speaker 2: game in my head. This a VP offense. I you know, 1779 01:25:47,120 --> 01:25:49,559 Speaker 2: you'll get David and Joku. He's not David and Joku. 1780 01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:52,639 Speaker 2: He's not that explosive of an athlete, but they tend 1781 01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:54,880 Speaker 2: to target tight ends maybe a little bit further down 1782 01:25:54,880 --> 01:25:57,280 Speaker 2: the field than other teams. Do you know this isn't 1783 01:25:57,320 --> 01:25:59,680 Speaker 2: like quick three yard slants all the time. Although he's 1784 01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:02,160 Speaker 2: had a those, you know, beating up linebackers in the 1785 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:05,000 Speaker 2: middle of the field. I still feel like when we 1786 01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:07,080 Speaker 2: watch one on ones and things like, his red zone 1787 01:26:07,120 --> 01:26:09,400 Speaker 2: work is still phenomenal. I think he's gonna be a 1788 01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:10,920 Speaker 2: big deal in the red zone still if they have 1789 01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:13,599 Speaker 2: the quarterback play for it. I look at Hunter Henry, 1790 01:26:13,640 --> 01:26:16,679 Speaker 2: I think he's been good. There's been some questions of 1791 01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:19,439 Speaker 2: you know, twenty nine years old, getting up there in 1792 01:26:19,479 --> 01:26:21,000 Speaker 2: age a little bit, like how much does he have 1793 01:26:21,080 --> 01:26:23,759 Speaker 2: left in the tank. He looks spry, he looks explosive 1794 01:26:23,800 --> 01:26:25,800 Speaker 2: out there. I thought he's been good this last week. 1795 01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:27,560 Speaker 1: I think it's been cool him and I feel like 1796 01:26:27,600 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 1: him and Jalen Hawkins have had a ton of battles 1797 01:26:29,320 --> 01:26:31,800 Speaker 1: in this camp. Yeah, and he's probably gotten Hawkins. Warren 1798 01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:33,760 Speaker 1: Hawks has gotten him, but Hawkins has gotten him a 1799 01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:37,160 Speaker 1: few times. For a team that's had trouble covering tight ends, 1800 01:26:37,400 --> 01:26:40,599 Speaker 1: Hawkins sticking with him has been encouraging. But yeah, Henry's 1801 01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:43,360 Speaker 1: looked good. All right, we got I wanted to try 1802 01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:46,719 Speaker 1: not to overlap, but since you didn't drop this guy first, 1803 01:26:46,720 --> 01:26:49,360 Speaker 1: Mike and Winno. Yeah, he's been the best player camp. Yeah, 1804 01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:51,360 Speaker 1: and it's only gotten better as the pads have come on, 1805 01:26:51,400 --> 01:26:54,120 Speaker 1: and boy do they need it. But one on ones, 1806 01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:56,040 Speaker 1: team drills, whatever you want to call it. I mean, 1807 01:26:56,080 --> 01:26:56,960 Speaker 1: he's just been dominant. 1808 01:26:57,000 --> 01:26:59,639 Speaker 2: The one on one stuff is I've never seen anything 1809 01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:03,519 Speaker 2: like it. And granted is I'm not I say this 1810 01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:05,000 Speaker 2: all the time. I haven't been covering the team for 1811 01:27:05,040 --> 01:27:06,880 Speaker 2: thirty years, right, so I don't go back to like 1812 01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:10,599 Speaker 2: Matt Light and Logan Mankins and those guys, but he 1813 01:27:10,760 --> 01:27:13,720 Speaker 2: is legitimately unbeatable. Like you cannot get around him in 1814 01:27:13,760 --> 01:27:18,080 Speaker 2: one on one. He just with a one handed, right 1815 01:27:18,120 --> 01:27:22,640 Speaker 2: handed punch to Keon White's chest, dropped Keon White to 1816 01:27:22,720 --> 01:27:26,040 Speaker 2: the ground with like a forearm shiver. That's a two 1817 01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:30,120 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty five pound just gigantic athlete that he 1818 01:27:30,280 --> 01:27:33,000 Speaker 2: just tossed like a rag doll to the ground. He's 1819 01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:35,600 Speaker 2: been phenomenal. I was worried a little bit about his 1820 01:27:35,640 --> 01:27:38,040 Speaker 2: weight when we came into training camp. That seemed to 1821 01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:40,720 Speaker 2: be a little bit of a concern there maybe why 1822 01:27:40,760 --> 01:27:44,560 Speaker 2: he's playing inside and not outside right now. But I 1823 01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:47,280 Speaker 2: don't I don't think it's matter even a little bit, 1824 01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:49,599 Speaker 2: Like I figure out what's going on around him right 1825 01:27:49,680 --> 01:27:52,479 Speaker 2: But I concur I had him on my ups last week, 1826 01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:54,800 Speaker 2: so I wanted to name some different guys this week. 1827 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:57,200 Speaker 2: But I concurrent he's been the best player in camp. 1828 01:27:57,400 --> 01:27:58,559 Speaker 2: Who is number two on your list? 1829 01:27:59,000 --> 01:28:02,000 Speaker 1: Keon White who outside of that one rep against Mike 1830 01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:03,880 Speaker 1: when Win who has also been really freaking good, which 1831 01:28:04,160 --> 01:28:05,720 Speaker 1: makes it all the more impressive for Mike o on 1832 01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:07,800 Speaker 1: Win who. But you talk about a guy who looks 1833 01:28:07,800 --> 01:28:10,519 Speaker 1: poised for like a year or two jump, Yeah, Yeah, 1834 01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:14,120 Speaker 1: he's he's been a wrecker in the run game. He's 1835 01:28:14,280 --> 01:28:18,840 Speaker 1: been effective as a pass rusher. There's definitely he's playing 1836 01:28:18,920 --> 01:28:20,880 Speaker 1: just a lot more confident. He kind of talked about this. 1837 01:28:21,360 --> 01:28:22,840 Speaker 1: I think it was last week when he spoke that 1838 01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:25,439 Speaker 1: last year he was more just focused on not messing 1839 01:28:25,560 --> 01:28:28,320 Speaker 1: up his assignment. This year he's more, folks, it's more 1840 01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:31,400 Speaker 1: of an aggressive attacking mentality and you see that in 1841 01:28:31,439 --> 01:28:32,719 Speaker 1: practice when he's on the field. 1842 01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:37,559 Speaker 2: So he's been good. Yeah, his issues he played tight 1843 01:28:37,680 --> 01:28:39,960 Speaker 2: end in college for a while, then he flipped over 1844 01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:41,799 Speaker 2: to defense, and even though he was a super senior, 1845 01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:44,679 Speaker 2: he didn't play a ton of defense at the college level, 1846 01:28:45,160 --> 01:28:49,600 Speaker 2: and so all of his issues were like block recognition, instincts, 1847 01:28:50,080 --> 01:28:53,560 Speaker 2: hand placement, like getting off blocks. He's a freak athlete, 1848 01:28:53,680 --> 01:28:57,040 Speaker 2: like he has all the athleticism and all the upside 1849 01:28:57,080 --> 01:28:59,200 Speaker 2: in the world, but it was a lot of just 1850 01:28:59,240 --> 01:29:02,680 Speaker 2: like learning nuances and like getting up the speed with 1851 01:29:02,760 --> 01:29:05,680 Speaker 2: the game. So if you can add that element to 1852 01:29:05,960 --> 01:29:08,439 Speaker 2: just the freak raw athleticism, then you're gonna have a 1853 01:29:08,479 --> 01:29:10,760 Speaker 2: player on your hands. And that's the leap that he's 1854 01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:14,120 Speaker 2: trying to make. Now. The one thing I'll say about 1855 01:29:14,160 --> 01:29:15,680 Speaker 2: Kean White, because I'm not you know, I'm not the 1856 01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:18,960 Speaker 2: biggest keyon white guy. The biggest thing that I see 1857 01:29:18,960 --> 01:29:23,160 Speaker 2: with him is that I worry about the sack production 1858 01:29:23,240 --> 01:29:26,599 Speaker 2: and like the true finishing he can disrupt. He's gonna 1859 01:29:26,600 --> 01:29:29,160 Speaker 2: be a wrecking ball and I think that idea that'll 1860 01:29:29,160 --> 01:29:33,919 Speaker 2: translate against the run. But is he just Anthony Jennings 1861 01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:35,439 Speaker 2: or is he like something more than that. 1862 01:29:35,479 --> 01:29:37,599 Speaker 1: I think he's like a better version of Anthony Jennings. 1863 01:29:37,640 --> 01:29:40,000 Speaker 1: I think the idea is because Jennings is as much 1864 01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:42,120 Speaker 1: of a penetrator as he is. Yeah, And I think 1865 01:29:42,160 --> 01:29:46,000 Speaker 1: the idea is he's gonna flush in the past rush. 1866 01:29:46,040 --> 01:29:49,600 Speaker 1: He's gonna flush. He's gonna chase towards the finisher on 1867 01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:53,840 Speaker 1: the other side with that, hopefully Matthew Judain, but if 1868 01:29:53,840 --> 01:29:55,960 Speaker 1: not josh Ucha or maybe you know, down the road 1869 01:29:55,960 --> 01:29:58,400 Speaker 1: they had a guy. But I think he's more that 1870 01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 1: because he can get into quick and then set it 1871 01:30:01,600 --> 01:30:03,240 Speaker 1: up for somebody on the other side to finish. And 1872 01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:06,080 Speaker 1: you know, if we're not seeing it because Matthew Judon 1873 01:30:06,120 --> 01:30:07,439 Speaker 1: hasn't been out there a ton and you don't really 1874 01:30:07,479 --> 01:30:10,240 Speaker 1: scheme up this way in training camp, he's gonna be 1875 01:30:10,439 --> 01:30:14,559 Speaker 1: more effective when Matthew Judon's on the other side, He's 1876 01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:16,280 Speaker 1: gonna be getting more one on ones and we know 1877 01:30:16,360 --> 01:30:18,400 Speaker 1: he can he can win strongly in that regard and 1878 01:30:18,400 --> 01:30:19,880 Speaker 1: it'll allow him to be a little more effective as 1879 01:30:19,880 --> 01:30:20,400 Speaker 1: a finisher. 1880 01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:22,559 Speaker 2: There's no doubt in my mind that he can be 1881 01:30:22,720 --> 01:30:25,080 Speaker 2: that he can cause havoc. Yeah, but there's a difference 1882 01:30:25,080 --> 01:30:28,639 Speaker 2: between havoc and production, right, Like maybe it's like havoc 1883 01:30:28,720 --> 01:30:32,040 Speaker 2: like Trey Flowers used to cause havrick where Trey Flowers 1884 01:30:32,040 --> 01:30:33,519 Speaker 2: would be one of those guys that if you looked 1885 01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:36,080 Speaker 2: at PFF and their pressure numbers and their hurry numbers 1886 01:30:36,080 --> 01:30:38,280 Speaker 2: and all that kind of stuff, he was like top ten, 1887 01:30:38,320 --> 01:30:42,240 Speaker 2: top fifteen amongst edge rushers. Maybe that's Keon White, which 1888 01:30:42,280 --> 01:30:45,960 Speaker 2: is totally fine. But if Judon and Barmore both out 1889 01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:48,679 Speaker 2: of this defense, then who's going to sack the quarterback? Right? 1890 01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:48,760 Speaker 1: Like? 1891 01:30:48,840 --> 01:30:50,800 Speaker 2: That's sacking the quarterbacks? How you get off the field 1892 01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:51,599 Speaker 2: on third down? Right? 1893 01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:53,760 Speaker 1: Well, that that's where you know, we'll we'll get to 1894 01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:56,439 Speaker 1: next offseason. And yeah, it's still a work in progress. 1895 01:30:56,479 --> 01:30:58,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, front these are the things that like with this team, 1896 01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:00,680 Speaker 2: you start to peel back the onions and you know, 1897 01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:03,000 Speaker 2: the layer of the onion, and you realize like, oh, okay, 1898 01:31:03,040 --> 01:31:04,160 Speaker 2: this is why this team is not. 1899 01:31:04,200 --> 01:31:05,880 Speaker 1: Playing, This is why you don't trade three picks for 1900 01:31:06,400 --> 01:31:07,320 Speaker 1: yeah right these. 1901 01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:11,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly all right? I can't wait for this one. 1902 01:31:11,160 --> 01:31:12,760 Speaker 2: My second of you ready for this? 1903 01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:15,040 Speaker 1: Is it a quarterback? 1904 01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:17,639 Speaker 2: No? But there is a quarterback on my list. 1905 01:31:19,000 --> 01:31:20,560 Speaker 1: The quarterback straightment. I don't know who is it? 1906 01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:24,760 Speaker 2: Taekwon Chad Ryland? Really, I feel like child Ryland's been 1907 01:31:24,800 --> 01:31:26,160 Speaker 2: pretty good? Am I wrong? 1908 01:31:26,280 --> 01:31:27,360 Speaker 1: You don't watch the kickers. 1909 01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:31,120 Speaker 2: I feel like Chad Ryland's been better than Joey Sly He. 1910 01:31:32,160 --> 01:31:35,160 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that it's close. He has one more 1911 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:38,160 Speaker 1: make but sly hit of a live kick the fifty 1912 01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:41,040 Speaker 1: seven yard of the run on I had the kickers overall? 1913 01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:41,960 Speaker 1: Is the downs it? 1914 01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:42,400 Speaker 2: Really? 1915 01:31:42,520 --> 01:31:42,720 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1916 01:31:42,960 --> 01:31:46,280 Speaker 2: And so you still think this is an issue? Yeah, 1917 01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:48,479 Speaker 2: it's I put Chad Ryland on here just to mess 1918 01:31:48,479 --> 01:31:49,719 Speaker 2: with you. I'm not going I don't. 1919 01:31:50,479 --> 01:31:54,719 Speaker 1: So you didn't watch the kickers, you're not even neither. 1920 01:31:55,080 --> 01:31:57,640 Speaker 1: I don't feel overly confident either one like they've I 1921 01:31:57,960 --> 01:32:01,360 Speaker 1: don't think they've both sucked, but nobody's like really claimed 1922 01:32:01,439 --> 01:32:03,960 Speaker 1: the job. And yeah, the game's gonna be big, But 1923 01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:08,360 Speaker 1: there's yesterday is probably their best day. They each had 1924 01:32:08,360 --> 01:32:11,280 Speaker 1: to miss me. Yesterday's probably their best day. But hasn't 1925 01:32:11,320 --> 01:32:12,840 Speaker 1: been convincing from either one of them. 1926 01:32:12,960 --> 01:32:16,360 Speaker 2: I just feel like, maybe maybe I'm strictly going onf vibes, 1927 01:32:16,640 --> 01:32:19,080 Speaker 2: but they like competition, does seem to have like pushed 1928 01:32:19,120 --> 01:32:21,479 Speaker 2: him maybe a little bit, Like It's not like he's 1929 01:32:21,479 --> 01:32:21,960 Speaker 2: been awful. 1930 01:32:22,200 --> 01:32:23,840 Speaker 1: No, neither one of them has been awful. But neither 1931 01:32:23,880 --> 01:32:25,840 Speaker 1: one of them has been great either. And I think 1932 01:32:25,880 --> 01:32:29,559 Speaker 1: you were kind of hoping. I don't feel so yesterday, right, 1933 01:32:29,680 --> 01:32:34,960 Speaker 1: the live kick Jacob Rissett, there's a I forget what happened. 1934 01:32:34,960 --> 01:32:36,439 Speaker 1: I think it was a sack something. This is a 1935 01:32:36,439 --> 01:32:40,440 Speaker 1: live one minute Trail's a sack. Maybe is a false start. 1936 01:32:40,720 --> 01:32:44,080 Speaker 1: They're in fourth and long hits kJ Osborne over the middle, 1937 01:32:44,120 --> 01:32:47,480 Speaker 1: like really good thrown catch Osborne up over two defenders 1938 01:32:47,800 --> 01:32:49,360 Speaker 1: on a fourth. All right, so you keep going, but 1939 01:32:49,360 --> 01:32:51,240 Speaker 1: at this point there's time off the clock that keep moving. 1940 01:32:52,080 --> 01:32:53,639 Speaker 1: They end up with a fifty three yard field goal. 1941 01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:54,960 Speaker 1: He misses wide left. 1942 01:32:55,240 --> 01:32:57,559 Speaker 2: Okay, can I give you my reel up now?

So how because where I sit, 1955 01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:32,599 Speaker 2: when we sit up on the ramps, you can't tell 1956 01:33:32,800 --> 01:33:35,480 Speaker 2: if the kicks going in or not. You just can't. 1957 01:33:35,880 --> 01:33:38,880 Speaker 2: Are you texting Brian right now? It was too funny. 1958 01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:40,519 Speaker 2: I thought he was gonna get booted. 1959 01:33:41,200 --> 01:33:43,360 Speaker 1: Went when he was over there by the goalpost when 1960 01:33:43,360 --> 01:33:44,400 Speaker 1: he was walking back to the media. 1961 01:33:44,439 --> 01:33:46,720 Speaker 2: When he's walking back to the media ten that some 1962 01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:49,000 Speaker 2: security guy kid went right up to him and was like, 1963 01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:50,360 Speaker 2: I need to see your creditial So he. 1964 01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:53,280 Speaker 1: Walks in front through the crowd. I walked through the 1965 01:33:53,320 --> 01:33:55,640 Speaker 1: back where like that it's easier to do that. 1966 01:33:55,680 --> 01:33:57,360 Speaker 2: No me, like where Badard sits? 1967 01:33:57,600 --> 01:34:02,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, me, Brian, Mike Kadlick sometimes Taylor and Mike Reese 1968 01:34:02,720 --> 01:34:04,680 Speaker 1: all go over to watch the field goals every time. 1969 01:34:04,720 --> 01:34:05,240 Speaker 1: That's what we do. 1970 01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:07,439 Speaker 2: I give you, I give you props I do. 1971 01:34:07,439 --> 01:34:09,200 Speaker 1: And we're like, we compare notes and we make sure 1972 01:34:09,240 --> 01:34:11,320 Speaker 1: if the distance is right, because the thing you have 1973 01:34:11,320 --> 01:34:13,200 Speaker 1: the better angle on. I've texted you for this once 1974 01:34:13,280 --> 01:34:15,519 Speaker 1: or twice. It is tough to see from our angle, 1975 01:34:16,080 --> 01:34:18,080 Speaker 1: especially when they're not using the change, not where the bar, 1976 01:34:18,240 --> 01:34:20,720 Speaker 1: where the balls spotted, what the yard line is. But no, 1977 01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:23,040 Speaker 1: we we all go over there because you can't see otherwise, 1978 01:34:23,120 --> 01:34:24,840 Speaker 1: I know, and we're right behind it, and we get 1979 01:34:24,840 --> 01:34:28,360 Speaker 1: a really good view. And when they miss, like we're 1980 01:34:28,360 --> 01:34:29,840 Speaker 1: all we call it. 1981 01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:34,080 Speaker 2: That's awesome. That's I'm a little jealous. I am. 1982 01:34:34,160 --> 01:34:36,160 Speaker 1: If you ever come down from your perch and watch 1983 01:34:36,240 --> 01:34:38,439 Speaker 1: practice on the common folk, you could join us and 1984 01:34:38,520 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 1: I meet I've met Catch. Actually, this is funny. I've 1985 01:34:42,240 --> 01:34:44,240 Speaker 1: met Catch twenty two listeners down there because you are 1986 01:34:44,240 --> 01:34:47,400 Speaker 1: in the crowd. And some guy came up to me 1987 01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:51,120 Speaker 1: the other day and goes like he comes up and 1988 01:34:51,120 --> 01:34:53,600 Speaker 1: he goes, hey, Evan, and I'm in the middle, like 1989 01:34:53,640 --> 01:34:56,439 Speaker 1: as I get ready to kick and I'm like, yeah, hey, 1990 01:34:56,520 --> 01:35:00,080 Speaker 1: it's Alex, and like he starts laughing and I I 1991 01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:01,719 Speaker 1: need to have felt like I blew him off because 1992 01:35:01,720 --> 01:35:03,240 Speaker 1: I'm trying to watch the kicks, like we're trying to 1993 01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:05,720 Speaker 1: count the artist where they're spotting the ball. So I 1994 01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:07,640 Speaker 1: go up to him after they're done kicking. I just 1995 01:35:07,640 --> 01:35:09,240 Speaker 1: go up to him. You're still standing, and I was like, hey, 1996 01:35:09,600 --> 01:35:11,479 Speaker 1: nice to meet you, Like, I didn't really mean to 1997 01:35:11,479 --> 01:35:14,479 Speaker 1: blow you off, like I just I was focusing on 1998 01:35:14,520 --> 01:35:17,080 Speaker 1: the kicks, and he goes, no, I'm sorry, like I thought, 1999 01:35:17,120 --> 01:35:18,960 Speaker 1: you know, I was joking calling you Evan, and I 2000 01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:20,920 Speaker 1: was like I kind of figured you were, but it 2001 01:35:21,080 --> 01:35:24,240 Speaker 1: happens enough that I'm never really sure. But I don't 2002 01:35:24,280 --> 01:35:26,599 Speaker 1: remember the fans name. But I appreciate you saying hi, 2003 01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:28,519 Speaker 1: I appreciate listening to the show. I did not mean 2004 01:35:28,520 --> 01:35:30,559 Speaker 1: to blow you off. I apologize came across like that 2005 01:35:30,600 --> 01:35:32,280 Speaker 1: and I did. It took me a second. I did 2006 01:35:32,360 --> 01:35:33,280 Speaker 1: understand you were joking. 2007 01:35:33,360 --> 01:35:37,200 Speaker 2: Okay, that's enough on the kickers my real second up here. Yeah, 2008 01:35:37,280 --> 01:35:40,719 Speaker 2: kJ Osborne, he's been really good. kJ Osborne's come alive. 2009 01:35:41,080 --> 01:35:42,599 Speaker 2: You know. I was like on the fence a little 2010 01:35:42,640 --> 01:35:45,280 Speaker 2: bit about it didn't really see it quite yet, but 2011 01:35:45,320 --> 01:35:49,320 Speaker 2: he's come alive. He's made some plays down the field. 2012 01:35:49,760 --> 01:35:53,200 Speaker 2: Just one of those guys that's just like a sturdy, size, 2013 01:35:53,240 --> 01:35:56,200 Speaker 2: speed type of player, perfect fit for what they want 2014 01:35:56,240 --> 01:35:57,760 Speaker 2: to do. Because I'm sure he can block a little 2015 01:35:57,800 --> 01:36:00,639 Speaker 2: bit too. I haven't really studied, you know, film yet 2016 01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:02,640 Speaker 2: of it, so we'll see in games in terms of 2017 01:36:02,640 --> 01:36:04,639 Speaker 2: blocking and things like that. It's much easier to tell. 2018 01:36:04,640 --> 01:36:07,960 Speaker 2: But you know, you can see that he's got comfortability 2019 01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:10,000 Speaker 2: in this system because it's a lot of overlap from 2020 01:36:10,040 --> 01:36:12,760 Speaker 2: what he was doing in Minnesota when he started talking 2021 01:36:12,800 --> 01:36:17,320 Speaker 2: about base receivers. Not necessarily like the most flashiest of guys, 2022 01:36:17,360 --> 01:36:19,360 Speaker 2: but just the guy on first in ten, not the 2023 01:36:19,400 --> 01:36:21,280 Speaker 2: twenty five who's gonna be on the field when the 2024 01:36:21,280 --> 01:36:26,160 Speaker 2: Patriots come to play Week one against the Bengals. Osborne 2025 01:36:26,160 --> 01:36:27,840 Speaker 2: I think is going to be in that mix because 2026 01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:30,080 Speaker 2: he brings all those elements to it. He can line 2027 01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:32,240 Speaker 2: up in multiple spots, he can play on the outside, 2028 01:36:32,240 --> 01:36:34,719 Speaker 2: he can block, he can run routes down the field. 2029 01:36:35,360 --> 01:36:38,400 Speaker 2: He's been impressive. He's been much better and has really 2030 01:36:38,400 --> 01:36:39,559 Speaker 2: come on here in the second week. 2031 01:36:39,960 --> 01:36:42,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, he looks really good. He could play a sneaky 2032 01:36:42,200 --> 01:36:44,200 Speaker 1: big role for this team because when we get to 2033 01:36:44,240 --> 01:36:46,600 Speaker 1: week one, Kendrick Bourne is not ready to start the 2034 01:36:46,600 --> 01:36:50,160 Speaker 1: season pop Douglas is. He's gonna be good, but his 2035 01:36:50,320 --> 01:36:51,720 Speaker 1: role is going to be what it is like, he's 2036 01:36:51,720 --> 01:36:53,759 Speaker 1: not gonna be a full time on the field player. 2037 01:36:54,080 --> 01:36:55,680 Speaker 1: And the rookies will look good with their rookies and 2038 01:36:55,680 --> 01:36:57,479 Speaker 1: you'd like to be able to ease them in. Yeah, 2039 01:36:57,560 --> 01:36:59,760 Speaker 1: that leaves kJ Osborne is kind of the guy to 2040 01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:01,680 Speaker 1: start things off for Jacoby Brisset. I don't think it'll 2041 01:37:01,720 --> 01:37:04,200 Speaker 1: stay that way, Like the rookies will emerge, Kendrick Bourne 2042 01:37:04,200 --> 01:37:06,960 Speaker 1: will come back, but he could be their most targeted 2043 01:37:07,040 --> 01:37:08,640 Speaker 1: receiver through the first month or so. 2044 01:37:08,880 --> 01:37:11,760 Speaker 2: Agreed early on in the year. It definitely feels like 2045 01:37:12,479 --> 01:37:17,000 Speaker 2: Osbourne pop. And then you know, whether Bourne is healthy 2046 01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:19,400 Speaker 2: or not will be a question. But like Osborne pop 2047 01:37:19,439 --> 01:37:22,040 Speaker 2: and then maybe even like Rager or Thornton has like 2048 01:37:22,080 --> 01:37:25,200 Speaker 2: the speed guy on the outside. I know that fans 2049 01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:27,160 Speaker 2: are gonna hear that and be like, like, we want 2050 01:37:27,160 --> 01:37:29,640 Speaker 2: to see the rookies and be disappointed in this, but 2051 01:37:29,760 --> 01:37:32,960 Speaker 2: don't be surprised if you see quite a bit of 2052 01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:36,439 Speaker 2: those guys. Polk might be the one exception, like he 2053 01:37:36,520 --> 01:37:39,040 Speaker 2: might be able to crack the top three instantly just 2054 01:37:39,040 --> 01:37:44,120 Speaker 2: because of how steady he is. But Osbourne and Bourne 2055 01:37:44,120 --> 01:37:46,000 Speaker 2: are gonna play a lot for this team this year, 2056 01:37:46,800 --> 01:37:49,000 Speaker 2: and so I would just prepare for that. Who's your 2057 01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:49,760 Speaker 2: number three down? 2058 01:37:51,080 --> 01:37:54,080 Speaker 1: Number three down? Ups or down? I just I just 2059 01:37:54,120 --> 01:37:57,960 Speaker 1: lost track there. So I just because I this is 2060 01:37:58,560 --> 01:38:00,200 Speaker 1: I don't know that these have been like the best, 2061 01:38:00,520 --> 01:38:01,760 Speaker 1: you know, some of the three best, But I want 2062 01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:03,559 Speaker 1: to give these guys mention because they deserve it, especially 2063 01:38:03,560 --> 01:38:05,840 Speaker 1: going to the preseason game. Two udfas that have stood 2064 01:38:05,840 --> 01:38:09,320 Speaker 1: out to me running back Terrell Jennings, safety Dell Pettis. 2065 01:38:09,680 --> 01:38:12,639 Speaker 1: They've been all over the field. Jennings runs really. 2066 01:38:12,520 --> 01:38:14,599 Speaker 2: Hard, got a little wiggle to him too. 2067 01:38:14,560 --> 01:38:16,519 Speaker 1: Great motor. Yeah, did did have a nice spin move 2068 01:38:16,560 --> 01:38:18,840 Speaker 1: the other day. And he's gonna be a preseason beast. 2069 01:38:18,920 --> 01:38:21,679 Speaker 1: He I mean, I'm putting it like Nobody's Ralph Webb, 2070 01:38:21,800 --> 01:38:24,240 Speaker 1: but that's kind of just about to say Ralph Nobody's 2071 01:38:24,320 --> 01:38:27,040 Speaker 1: Ralph Webb. But he's he's gonna, you know, get. 2072 01:38:26,920 --> 01:38:29,559 Speaker 2: The greatest preseason player of all time. 2073 01:38:29,960 --> 01:38:31,800 Speaker 1: Did he even ever end up on a practice squad? 2074 01:38:31,840 --> 01:38:33,479 Speaker 2: I think he was on a practice squad. I think 2075 01:38:33,479 --> 01:38:35,200 Speaker 2: he bounced around some teams. 2076 01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:38,200 Speaker 1: But you know, with these guys, with these udfas especially, 2077 01:38:38,240 --> 01:38:40,120 Speaker 1: you know we're post to Bill Belichick era where you 2078 01:38:40,120 --> 01:38:42,439 Speaker 1: could count on a guy making it and in a 2079 01:38:42,439 --> 01:38:45,719 Speaker 1: weaker UDFA class, and these two guys too, their positions, 2080 01:38:45,720 --> 01:38:48,080 Speaker 1: there's a lot of depth ahead of them. You just 2081 01:38:48,120 --> 01:38:50,479 Speaker 1: got to kind of play with energy and to get noticed, 2082 01:38:50,520 --> 01:38:51,599 Speaker 1: and that's what you got to do. And I think 2083 01:38:51,640 --> 01:38:54,160 Speaker 1: Terrell Jennings Ralph Webb is on a few practice squads 2084 01:38:54,160 --> 01:38:55,759 Speaker 1: and in the CFL. 2085 01:38:56,200 --> 01:38:57,960 Speaker 2: Come on, he didn't know that, No, I didn't. 2086 01:38:58,160 --> 01:39:02,679 Speaker 1: I'm a surprised as you. Terrell Jennings has done kind 2087 01:39:02,680 --> 01:39:04,720 Speaker 1: of what you want from UDFA to stand out in 2088 01:39:04,800 --> 01:39:08,120 Speaker 1: that spot and practice squad candidate. We know you always 2089 01:39:08,160 --> 01:39:10,000 Speaker 1: need running back depth, right, and maybe he gets on 2090 01:39:10,000 --> 01:39:12,960 Speaker 1: the practice squad and comes along later on. Del Pettis 2091 01:39:12,960 --> 01:39:15,280 Speaker 1: sort of same thing, flying around the secondary. He had 2092 01:39:15,280 --> 01:39:17,040 Speaker 1: a pass break at the other day, Hunter Henry, I 2093 01:39:17,040 --> 01:39:22,280 Speaker 1: think it was Saturday. Yeah, Hunter Henry was like unguardable 2094 01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:24,880 Speaker 1: the whole day except this one play in eleven on 2095 01:39:24,920 --> 01:39:28,800 Speaker 1: eleven read live like two minute, del Pettis clamped him 2096 01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:30,559 Speaker 1: in the end zone. And knocked the ball away, and 2097 01:39:31,520 --> 01:39:33,920 Speaker 1: he's bent the live tackling period he was hitting and 2098 01:39:33,960 --> 01:39:37,679 Speaker 1: he made a couple tackles, and again there's safety depth. 2099 01:39:38,280 --> 01:39:39,640 Speaker 1: And I don't know if there's a spot from on 2100 01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:42,599 Speaker 1: the roster, but practice squad comes up later. These are 2101 01:39:42,640 --> 01:39:44,719 Speaker 1: just two guys to watch in the preseason game because 2102 01:39:44,720 --> 01:39:48,080 Speaker 1: there they've They deserve recognition for what they've done, because 2103 01:39:48,120 --> 01:39:50,799 Speaker 1: they've approached this the right way, being in a position 2104 01:39:50,840 --> 01:39:53,720 Speaker 1: where there's not a clear or even unclear path to 2105 01:39:53,760 --> 01:39:56,400 Speaker 1: a ross spot. And they're probably more camp bodies, but 2106 01:39:56,840 --> 01:39:58,840 Speaker 1: they've made themselves known fair enough. 2107 01:39:58,880 --> 01:40:02,519 Speaker 2: It's a good shout. I would lean towards Trel Jennings 2108 01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:04,800 Speaker 2: being on the team right now. I just feel like 2109 01:40:05,120 --> 01:40:08,880 Speaker 2: when I was doing the roster projection, and granted a 2110 01:40:08,880 --> 01:40:11,000 Speaker 2: lot could change if you know, he bombs tomorrow night, 2111 01:40:11,040 --> 01:40:15,040 Speaker 2: but wouldn't you almost prefer in some and most spots 2112 01:40:15,040 --> 01:40:18,000 Speaker 2: for them to go like youth and ceiling or upside 2113 01:40:18,080 --> 01:40:24,240 Speaker 2: over like no offense meaning towards this, but like Jamichael Hasty, Yeah, 2114 01:40:24,280 --> 01:40:27,120 Speaker 2: for example, you know what Jamichael Hasty is in the 2115 01:40:27,160 --> 01:40:30,400 Speaker 2: league right Like he's at best like a Brandon Bolden 2116 01:40:30,520 --> 01:40:32,280 Speaker 2: type that's gonna play in the kicking game and is 2117 01:40:32,280 --> 01:40:34,599 Speaker 2: an emergency running back and like that kind of thing, 2118 01:40:34,840 --> 01:40:37,120 Speaker 2: whereas Terrell Jennings might have something. 2119 01:40:36,840 --> 01:40:39,840 Speaker 1: Well, I don't know, Hasty's a little more than that. 2120 01:40:40,200 --> 01:40:43,479 Speaker 1: He's he's you know, quicker, he can catch the ball. 2121 01:40:43,520 --> 01:40:46,240 Speaker 1: They don't really have that pass catching back well I Gibson, 2122 01:40:46,760 --> 01:40:48,559 Speaker 1: I guess they have depth there. I would more like 2123 01:40:48,600 --> 01:40:49,720 Speaker 1: it too. If we want to go the other way, 2124 01:40:49,760 --> 01:40:52,160 Speaker 1: like Joshua Bled's over Stale Pettis. 2125 01:40:52,439 --> 01:40:54,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean either way is fine, and you know, 2126 01:40:54,720 --> 01:40:56,760 Speaker 2: or even Marte Mapu. At this point, it needs to 2127 01:40:56,760 --> 01:40:59,479 Speaker 2: get on the field. Uh yeah, we'll get to Mark Well, 2128 01:40:59,520 --> 01:41:01,280 Speaker 2: he just needs to get on the field. We'll get 2129 01:41:01,280 --> 01:41:04,320 Speaker 2: to Martiopum. Yeah, Douce has a great nick name for him. 2130 01:41:04,320 --> 01:41:07,080 Speaker 2: But I'll tell you off the air, Okay. I just 2131 01:41:07,120 --> 01:41:10,720 Speaker 2: really feel like Terrell Jennings is. I feel like I 2132 01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:14,559 Speaker 2: feel myself in all spots of the roster, even at 2133 01:41:14,640 --> 01:41:17,640 Speaker 2: quarterback like with Milton and Zappi. Right, like just the 2134 01:41:18,160 --> 01:41:22,000 Speaker 2: youth in the upside. It needs to trump veteran at 2135 01:41:22,000 --> 01:41:24,400 Speaker 2: this point, right like needs to And I'm not talking 2136 01:41:24,439 --> 01:41:28,120 Speaker 2: about like keeping Jehean Bell over Hunter Henry. I'm talking 2137 01:41:28,160 --> 01:41:31,800 Speaker 2: about Like, if it's a battle between Jamichael Hasty and 2138 01:41:31,840 --> 01:41:34,599 Speaker 2: Terrell Jennings, I'm going Terrell Jennings. If it's a battle 2139 01:41:34,640 --> 01:41:37,160 Speaker 2: between Milton and Zappie, I'm going Milton right. Like those 2140 01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:39,200 Speaker 2: types of spots, and I feel like there's like four 2141 01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:42,360 Speaker 2: or five of those coin tosses. I'll give you another 2142 01:41:42,400 --> 01:41:49,320 Speaker 2: one cornerback. I'm going Marcella's Dial Isaiah Bolden over Marco 2143 01:41:49,320 --> 01:41:52,720 Speaker 2: Wilson Sean wade because I just know Marco Wilson and 2144 01:41:52,720 --> 01:41:56,120 Speaker 2: Sean Wadeer are back into the roster guys in the NFL. 2145 01:41:56,479 --> 01:41:59,040 Speaker 2: There might be some upside there with Bolden and Dial Dial. 2146 01:41:59,080 --> 01:41:59,760 Speaker 2: I think has been okay. 2147 01:42:00,040 --> 01:42:01,120 Speaker 1: Put Alex Saustin in that. 2148 01:42:01,280 --> 01:42:03,599 Speaker 2: I still have him on the team. But we'll get 2149 01:42:03,640 --> 01:42:06,320 Speaker 2: to him in a second. My did you give all 2150 01:42:06,360 --> 01:42:07,519 Speaker 2: three of your euro ups? 2151 01:42:08,760 --> 01:42:11,720 Speaker 1: I had one more on here in case we overlapped. Yeah, 2152 01:42:11,880 --> 01:42:17,240 Speaker 1: Trod Mayo coaching up. I just think there was a 2153 01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:21,000 Speaker 1: lot of talk about, you know, player friendly. How is 2154 01:42:21,040 --> 01:42:21,519 Speaker 1: that gonna be? 2155 01:42:21,920 --> 01:42:22,880 Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought this up. 2156 01:42:23,120 --> 01:42:25,760 Speaker 1: Yep, he might be player friendly in the locker room. 2157 01:42:25,800 --> 01:42:28,240 Speaker 1: We've heard about the like the ping pong table and 2158 01:42:28,320 --> 01:42:32,599 Speaker 1: things like that. Yeah, he is drilling these guys. These 2159 01:42:32,600 --> 01:42:37,120 Speaker 1: have been long, intense practices, hot days, eleven on eleven, 2160 01:42:37,200 --> 01:42:40,120 Speaker 1: live tackling. Yeah, he's not taking it easy on him 2161 01:42:40,120 --> 01:42:42,000 Speaker 1: on the field, and I think this team needs that 2162 01:42:42,280 --> 01:42:45,160 Speaker 1: and I think that's good. And when I say Trod Mayo, 2163 01:42:45,240 --> 01:42:47,120 Speaker 1: it's the coaching staff as a whole. It's not just 2164 01:42:47,200 --> 01:42:50,720 Speaker 1: him scripting these. But yeah, to get from day one 2165 01:42:51,200 --> 01:42:55,480 Speaker 1: right into eleven on eleven, no nonsense, and it's it's NonStop. 2166 01:42:55,560 --> 01:43:00,400 Speaker 1: It's two plus hour practices just about every day. Does 2167 01:43:00,439 --> 01:43:01,880 Speaker 1: this mean he's gonna be a good coach? Does this 2168 01:43:01,920 --> 01:43:04,160 Speaker 1: mean he's the guy post Bill Belichick? I don't know. 2169 01:43:04,240 --> 01:43:07,000 Speaker 1: It's still way too early. It's a small thing, but 2170 01:43:07,040 --> 01:43:11,200 Speaker 1: if we're at right now, I didn't think they were 2171 01:43:11,200 --> 01:43:12,200 Speaker 1: gonna drow him this hard. 2172 01:43:12,760 --> 01:43:18,439 Speaker 2: I've been impressed that this has been. I would say, 2173 01:43:19,200 --> 01:43:21,120 Speaker 2: I don't want to. You know, it's been seven years now, 2174 01:43:21,120 --> 01:43:23,400 Speaker 2: so I can't. I'd have to go back and really 2175 01:43:23,400 --> 01:43:25,759 Speaker 2: look at like twenty nineteen, right, Like, I don't remember 2176 01:43:25,840 --> 01:43:28,160 Speaker 2: off the top of my head the last couple of 2177 01:43:28,200 --> 01:43:31,080 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick training camps, though this has been a more 2178 01:43:31,160 --> 01:43:34,040 Speaker 2: intense physical training camp much. You know, we used to 2179 01:43:34,080 --> 01:43:36,439 Speaker 2: talk about like has Bill gone soft? Right? Like, you 2180 01:43:36,439 --> 01:43:38,880 Speaker 2: know they'd be at a pad some days, they wouldn't 2181 01:43:38,920 --> 01:43:41,439 Speaker 2: be tackling to the ground. That's not very common. Tackling 2182 01:43:41,560 --> 01:43:43,519 Speaker 2: the ground is not very common league wide, like let 2183 01:43:43,560 --> 01:43:47,720 Speaker 2: alone just Bill versus Girod. The other thing is, you know, 2184 01:43:47,720 --> 01:43:50,080 Speaker 2: we were talking to him the other day before practice 2185 01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:52,200 Speaker 2: and somebody asked him about this, like what was with 2186 01:43:52,280 --> 01:43:54,960 Speaker 2: the live tackling, Like what's the theory? Was the the 2187 01:43:55,000 --> 01:44:00,360 Speaker 2: mindset there? And he said something about getting them for 2188 01:44:00,439 --> 01:44:03,519 Speaker 2: it in games, But he also said that it's for 2189 01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:07,960 Speaker 2: evaluation purposes because to him, it's like, if you're a 2190 01:44:07,960 --> 01:44:11,400 Speaker 2: defensive player yet, it's all well and good to tap 2191 01:44:11,439 --> 01:44:12,880 Speaker 2: the guy on the button on his way by, but 2192 01:44:12,920 --> 01:44:14,360 Speaker 2: if you don't tackle him to the ground, how do 2193 01:44:14,400 --> 01:44:16,639 Speaker 2: I know if you can actually do it right? And 2194 01:44:16,720 --> 01:44:19,680 Speaker 2: I thought that was impressive too, because it's like this 2195 01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:23,120 Speaker 2: is an evaluation thing for him that he wants to 2196 01:44:23,160 --> 01:44:26,360 Speaker 2: see who is a real football player, not who's great 2197 01:44:26,439 --> 01:44:29,920 Speaker 2: in shorts and shells or whatever, who can play football, 2198 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:33,840 Speaker 2: who can play actual tackle football? And uh, and I 2199 01:44:33,840 --> 01:44:35,800 Speaker 2: didn't expect that out of him. I thought this was 2200 01:44:35,840 --> 01:44:39,439 Speaker 2: going to be what we have seen in other places 2201 01:44:39,479 --> 01:44:43,479 Speaker 2: in Miami Philly, you know the rams, right, like, yeah, 2202 01:44:44,240 --> 01:44:45,559 Speaker 2: kind of country club vibes. 2203 01:44:45,680 --> 01:44:49,000 Speaker 1: Right, Nope, No, maybe that's going on behind the scenes. Again. 2204 01:44:49,000 --> 01:44:50,439 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people got freaked out about 2205 01:44:50,439 --> 01:44:54,080 Speaker 1: that player's lounge or whatever. Yeah, they've they've they've earned 2206 01:44:54,120 --> 01:44:56,720 Speaker 1: the players lounge based on these practices. I don't think 2207 01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:57,640 Speaker 1: it's a stretch to say that. 2208 01:44:57,720 --> 01:45:02,760 Speaker 2: All right, downs, Yeah, my number one down is the 2209 01:45:02,920 --> 01:45:04,559 Speaker 2: entire offensive tackle situation. 2210 01:45:04,840 --> 01:45:06,000 Speaker 1: Can we just say the line? 2211 01:45:06,439 --> 01:45:09,000 Speaker 2: No, I think the interior line is is gonna be Okay. 2212 01:45:09,320 --> 01:45:11,720 Speaker 2: I think On when Andrews City So is solid. But 2213 01:45:11,800 --> 01:45:15,920 Speaker 2: the depth I mean Marte Mofu Mafi and Tony Mafiy 2214 01:45:15,920 --> 01:45:17,479 Speaker 2: can't get a snap off. Okay, But I. 2215 01:45:17,600 --> 01:45:19,200 Speaker 1: All right, sorry, it's here's tackles. 2216 01:45:19,200 --> 01:45:19,439 Speaker 4: Tackle. 2217 01:45:19,520 --> 01:45:21,400 Speaker 2: No just in season though, because I'm actually kind of 2218 01:45:21,439 --> 01:45:24,040 Speaker 2: bullish on the interior, Like I think, I think City 2219 01:45:24,479 --> 01:45:26,559 Speaker 2: Andrews and On when it was a really good start 2220 01:45:26,680 --> 01:45:29,320 Speaker 2: to an interior of an offensive line like could actually 2221 01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:33,040 Speaker 2: be almost a plus. I would say for them offensively, 2222 01:45:33,040 --> 01:45:36,320 Speaker 2: those are three good players. And there nick Levert's okay, 2223 01:45:36,600 --> 01:45:37,680 Speaker 2: as like a swing. 2224 01:45:37,360 --> 01:45:39,160 Speaker 1: Back up good depth player. 2225 01:45:39,200 --> 01:45:42,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then Leyden Robinson will be here and hopefully 2226 01:45:42,080 --> 01:45:44,840 Speaker 2: he develops into a guy too. So I don't think 2227 01:45:44,840 --> 01:45:46,200 Speaker 2: you have to go all the way down to Mafi 2228 01:45:46,360 --> 01:45:48,960 Speaker 2: is my point? Right? Or like you know your guy 2229 01:45:49,000 --> 01:45:51,080 Speaker 2: Michael B. Jordan or whatever, Right, we don't. 2230 01:45:50,880 --> 01:45:53,040 Speaker 1: Have to call Jordan. Why are you doing that? 2231 01:45:53,240 --> 01:45:54,559 Speaker 2: Because he's not Michael Jordan. 2232 01:45:55,200 --> 01:45:56,760 Speaker 1: I but he's not Michael B. Jordan either. 2233 01:45:57,000 --> 01:46:02,200 Speaker 2: The whole tackle situation is a dumpsterfy. It's a dumpster fire. 2234 01:46:02,320 --> 01:46:05,840 Speaker 2: You first of all, chooks a corp for who's like 2235 01:46:05,880 --> 01:46:09,240 Speaker 2: the one guy that has NFL tape for an extended period, 2236 01:46:09,400 --> 01:46:13,200 Speaker 2: like a high volume of starting caliber NFL tape has 2237 01:46:13,280 --> 01:46:16,960 Speaker 2: been in in you know, sweatpants right the last couple 2238 01:46:17,040 --> 01:46:20,400 Speaker 2: of days. He's not healthy. He's not out there. Canon 2239 01:46:20,439 --> 01:46:24,280 Speaker 2: Wallace has, after a good start to PADS, has sort 2240 01:46:24,320 --> 01:46:26,439 Speaker 2: of waned a little bit. I think he's going through 2241 01:46:26,439 --> 01:46:28,800 Speaker 2: the rookie growing pains right now, and maybe we need 2242 01:46:28,840 --> 01:46:30,800 Speaker 2: to pump the brakes a little bit on him. He's 2243 01:46:30,800 --> 01:46:33,479 Speaker 2: had some rough reps in one on ones. He was 2244 01:46:33,520 --> 01:46:36,479 Speaker 2: better in Eleven's yesterday. I felt like that stood out 2245 01:46:36,479 --> 01:46:40,519 Speaker 2: to me. But we started, you know, PADS with him 2246 01:46:40,520 --> 01:46:43,320 Speaker 2: being at at left tackle, and we were I myself included, 2247 01:46:43,360 --> 01:46:45,640 Speaker 2: like I was very excited about it. Yeah, we're We're not. 2248 01:46:45,680 --> 01:46:48,080 Speaker 2: We're a long ways away from that right now with him, 2249 01:46:48,600 --> 01:46:51,519 Speaker 2: and you're starting tackles right now in team periods of 2250 01:46:51,640 --> 01:46:54,479 Speaker 2: Vederian Lowe and Calvin Anderson. If you had told me 2251 01:46:54,520 --> 01:46:56,760 Speaker 2: that Vederian low was going to make this team to 2252 01:46:56,800 --> 01:46:59,360 Speaker 2: start camp, I would have told you no, right like 2253 01:46:59,360 --> 01:47:01,479 Speaker 2: I would have had him off the roster. And now 2254 01:47:01,600 --> 01:47:03,680 Speaker 2: there's a chance, I mean, granted, there's a couple of 2255 01:47:03,680 --> 01:47:06,200 Speaker 2: weeks left here and we're not there yet, but there's 2256 01:47:06,240 --> 01:47:08,640 Speaker 2: a chance that a Darian Low's gonna start for this 2257 01:47:08,680 --> 01:47:10,760 Speaker 2: team at left tackle against the Bengals in Week one 2258 01:47:10,880 --> 01:47:13,840 Speaker 2: with Trey Henderson coming off his left edge. Like, good luck, 2259 01:47:14,479 --> 01:47:17,880 Speaker 2: good luck. That's not good. That can't happen. So one 2260 01:47:17,880 --> 01:47:21,880 Speaker 2: of two things needs to happen. One, they need to 2261 01:47:21,880 --> 01:47:24,280 Speaker 2: pull a rabbit out of their hat and find an 2262 01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:26,400 Speaker 2: external solution. Right, you know, we have to call her 2263 01:47:26,439 --> 01:47:28,559 Speaker 2: call in and say go off for the Detroit Lions. 2264 01:47:28,600 --> 01:47:31,479 Speaker 2: Three first round picks for Penny Suel. That's not happening, right, 2265 01:47:31,520 --> 01:47:34,160 Speaker 2: But you understand what I'm saying, Yeah, maybe we're not 2266 01:47:34,200 --> 01:47:38,280 Speaker 2: thinking of a name that exists. Go get them number two. 2267 01:47:39,439 --> 01:47:42,880 Speaker 2: They need to get Keden Wallace back to being on 2268 01:47:42,920 --> 01:47:45,280 Speaker 2: the fast track. Whatever it takes, right, Like, I don't 2269 01:47:45,280 --> 01:47:46,840 Speaker 2: know what it takes. I'm not Scott Peters, I'm not 2270 01:47:46,880 --> 01:47:49,479 Speaker 2: an offensive line coach. But get him up to get 2271 01:47:49,560 --> 01:47:52,280 Speaker 2: him ready because he's gonna have to play early, or 2272 01:47:52,320 --> 01:47:55,960 Speaker 2: I guess there's three number three, Mike on one of 2273 01:47:55,960 --> 01:48:00,720 Speaker 2: who's been the best player in camp? Is it? Can 2274 01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:02,960 Speaker 2: they get by with Nick Levet or Laden Robinson at 2275 01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:05,240 Speaker 2: right guard to the point where he can play right 2276 01:48:05,320 --> 01:48:09,400 Speaker 2: tackle and then maybe you're only worrying about one tackle spot. 2277 01:48:09,439 --> 01:48:11,479 Speaker 2: Maybe Chukes goes back over to left for the time 2278 01:48:11,520 --> 01:48:15,040 Speaker 2: being and you go with that line instead. They I 2279 01:48:15,120 --> 01:48:17,240 Speaker 2: can't imagine that they're looking at a Darian Lowe and 2280 01:48:17,240 --> 01:48:20,360 Speaker 2: Calvin Anderson and loving what they're seeing. It just would 2281 01:48:20,400 --> 01:48:23,280 Speaker 2: be impossible to say that. So the whole situation is 2282 01:48:23,280 --> 01:48:25,280 Speaker 2: a mess, as we knew it would be. 2283 01:48:25,479 --> 01:48:28,360 Speaker 1: Right, No, we're here two weeks in a camp. Jod 2284 01:48:28,439 --> 01:48:31,000 Speaker 1: Mayo has said, like the timeline for them wanting to 2285 01:48:31,080 --> 01:48:34,639 Speaker 1: know their starting offensive line is the second preseason game, 2286 01:48:34,680 --> 01:48:37,960 Speaker 1: So basically in a week, it doesn't feel like they've 2287 01:48:37,960 --> 01:48:41,519 Speaker 1: made any progress. No, it all still feels wide open chokes. 2288 01:48:41,560 --> 01:48:44,800 Speaker 1: The corps four will be somewhere, assuming he's healthy. Right, 2289 01:48:45,520 --> 01:48:47,040 Speaker 1: That's pretty much as much as I can say to 2290 01:48:47,080 --> 01:48:49,519 Speaker 1: finli Ley at this point. Hopefully the game hads some 2291 01:48:49,520 --> 01:48:51,719 Speaker 1: clarity for Darien Low goes out there and play poorly, 2292 01:48:52,320 --> 01:48:53,760 Speaker 1: that should be the sign, all right, we gotta get 2293 01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:55,960 Speaker 1: Kane Wallace ready. He goes out there and plays well, 2294 01:48:56,000 --> 01:48:57,479 Speaker 1: all right, maybe given another week. 2295 01:48:57,320 --> 01:49:00,559 Speaker 2: But I felt like we had some moments him there. 2296 01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:04,080 Speaker 2: The first three or four padded practices were okay. The 2297 01:49:04,120 --> 01:49:05,759 Speaker 2: short yardage practice was terrible. 2298 01:49:05,880 --> 01:49:08,960 Speaker 1: I don't know why they dropped Kiten Wallace out of 2299 01:49:08,960 --> 01:49:09,519 Speaker 1: the top group. 2300 01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:14,040 Speaker 2: So the theories are one, they it wasn't as good 2301 01:49:14,040 --> 01:49:16,320 Speaker 2: as we all thought it was, which is definitely possible. 2302 01:49:16,520 --> 01:49:21,240 Speaker 2: Right Number two, is there a chance that they wanted 2303 01:49:21,280 --> 01:49:25,599 Speaker 2: to give Drake May at least something on the line 2304 01:49:25,760 --> 01:49:28,360 Speaker 2: that was starting caliber, right, Like maybe they felt like, 2305 01:49:28,760 --> 01:49:29,759 Speaker 2: all right, let's just get. 2306 01:49:29,640 --> 01:49:33,280 Speaker 1: Them a pack. Such a weird because it's the reps. 2307 01:49:33,280 --> 01:49:35,360 Speaker 1: Are the reps though? I get that, but no, but 2308 01:49:35,720 --> 01:49:38,160 Speaker 1: they're not because you want to build continuity. 2309 01:49:38,840 --> 01:49:43,800 Speaker 2: That's fair, So that's fair. It's been bad and they 2310 01:49:43,840 --> 01:49:45,800 Speaker 2: haven't run the ball very well. The last handful of 2311 01:49:45,840 --> 01:49:48,759 Speaker 2: practices that's kind of gone away. Yeah, after a good start. 2312 01:49:49,920 --> 01:49:52,400 Speaker 2: The pass pro is okay, Like it's not as bad 2313 01:49:52,439 --> 01:49:54,920 Speaker 2: as I think it would be, but I'm still marking 2314 01:49:54,960 --> 01:49:58,240 Speaker 2: down pressures more times than I would like. It's been 2315 01:49:58,280 --> 01:50:00,880 Speaker 2: bad and they need to I would say they need 2316 01:50:00,880 --> 01:50:02,160 Speaker 2: to figure it out, but I just I don't even 2317 01:50:02,160 --> 01:50:02,320 Speaker 2: know what. 2318 01:50:02,400 --> 01:50:04,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how they know this is. And it 2319 01:50:04,040 --> 01:50:06,120 Speaker 1: goes to the Drake May timeline. Right, They're still gonna 2320 01:50:06,160 --> 01:50:07,760 Speaker 1: be working well and in the season will find their 2321 01:50:07,760 --> 01:50:10,040 Speaker 1: best five at this point because I don't want to 2322 01:50:10,080 --> 01:50:12,240 Speaker 1: say they've wasted time. Guys have been hurt, but there's 2323 01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:14,880 Speaker 1: they've lost a lot of time moving things around so far. 2324 01:50:15,040 --> 01:50:18,320 Speaker 1: Yep a right, what do you got, uh for the downs? Yes, 2325 01:50:18,680 --> 01:50:22,439 Speaker 1: so just kind of grouping together the players that needed 2326 01:50:22,479 --> 01:50:25,000 Speaker 1: to get on the field that haven't been on the field. Yeah, Martin, 2327 01:50:25,240 --> 01:50:29,840 Speaker 1: Marte Mapu, Taekwon Thornton. Those are really two big ones. Yes, 2328 01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:32,439 Speaker 1: I don't think I'm missing I mean I guess the 2329 01:50:32,520 --> 01:50:35,599 Speaker 1: core four like, yeah, and it's not down. Oh they suck, 2330 01:50:35,680 --> 01:50:37,200 Speaker 1: Like I don't want to pick on guys for being hurt, 2331 01:50:37,240 --> 01:50:38,840 Speaker 1: but you can't make the club from the tub and 2332 01:50:39,240 --> 01:50:41,519 Speaker 1: talk about Marte Mopoo. We've seen Jalen Hawkins get a 2333 01:50:41,560 --> 01:50:43,439 Speaker 1: ton of reps. Del Pettis is coming on. Is he 2334 01:50:43,520 --> 01:50:46,519 Speaker 1: getting passed? Taekwon? Thornton had built that momentum and now 2335 01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:49,639 Speaker 1: he's dealing with a soft tissue issue. He hates saying 2336 01:50:49,680 --> 01:50:52,640 Speaker 1: that he's limited. Keishn Booty is starting to come on, 2337 01:50:52,760 --> 01:50:55,800 Speaker 1: like that's the guy that could pass him. Just these 2338 01:50:55,840 --> 01:50:57,600 Speaker 1: guys are getting passed. These are guys that need to 2339 01:50:57,600 --> 01:50:58,799 Speaker 1: be on the field. They're getting passed. 2340 01:50:58,960 --> 01:51:01,680 Speaker 2: Marte Mopu and Partic Yeah, it just I. 2341 01:51:01,640 --> 01:51:04,320 Speaker 1: Still Thornton put out some good yeah work. 2342 01:51:04,439 --> 01:51:08,360 Speaker 2: I still have him on just because of third round pick, 2343 01:51:08,439 --> 01:51:10,840 Speaker 2: second year. It hasn't been play that he is not 2344 01:51:11,240 --> 01:51:15,439 Speaker 2: making the team. It's it's hell right, so for right last, But. 2345 01:51:15,840 --> 01:51:18,880 Speaker 1: At what point, because he's behind, he's I think we 2346 01:51:18,880 --> 01:51:21,000 Speaker 1: can all acknowledge that. At what point does he just 2347 01:51:21,040 --> 01:51:21,840 Speaker 1: open the heir on PP. 2348 01:51:22,880 --> 01:51:25,120 Speaker 2: Well, it can't be on pup right because he's practiced. 2349 01:51:25,439 --> 01:51:27,600 Speaker 1: Oh that's right, he did start practice. 2350 01:51:27,280 --> 01:51:30,360 Speaker 2: So he can. He can. He can injured reserve, so they. 2351 01:51:30,280 --> 01:51:33,080 Speaker 1: Could You're gonna you get two designated return spots. 2352 01:51:33,160 --> 01:51:34,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I would assume that one is going to 2353 01:51:34,640 --> 01:51:35,880 Speaker 2: go to Christian Barmar. 2354 01:51:35,960 --> 01:51:37,920 Speaker 1: And the other's probably gonna go, oh no Cold Strangers 2355 01:51:37,920 --> 01:51:38,240 Speaker 1: on PP. 2356 01:51:38,479 --> 01:51:40,559 Speaker 2: Yeah. So I so to use it on Thornton, to 2357 01:51:40,640 --> 01:51:42,599 Speaker 2: use it on Mapu, to use it on My guess 2358 01:51:42,800 --> 01:51:47,760 Speaker 2: is that Thornton is closer than Mapu is. Yeah, but 2359 01:51:47,840 --> 01:51:53,280 Speaker 2: we'll see you have two spots. There's even a remote 2360 01:51:53,400 --> 01:51:55,679 Speaker 2: chance that Christian Barbore can play this year, it's got 2361 01:51:55,680 --> 01:51:56,559 Speaker 2: to be. He's got to be one. 2362 01:51:56,600 --> 01:51:58,040 Speaker 1: And for the record, because we had to look the 2363 01:51:58,120 --> 01:51:58,880 Speaker 1: rule up the other day. 2364 01:51:58,920 --> 01:52:00,840 Speaker 2: So it's not it's on cutdown day. 2365 01:52:00,920 --> 01:52:03,439 Speaker 1: You have to place some on IR on cutdown day 2366 01:52:03,479 --> 01:52:06,479 Speaker 1: and all of the guys you place on IR that day. 2367 01:52:06,520 --> 01:52:08,400 Speaker 1: It's not all right, we're gonna place five guys on 2368 01:52:08,439 --> 01:52:10,960 Speaker 1: IR today and we'll decide which to come back later. 2369 01:52:11,080 --> 01:52:15,160 Speaker 1: It's you have to name two guys that day. So 2370 01:52:15,200 --> 01:52:17,720 Speaker 1: if you name bar Moore, and I'm with you, like, 2371 01:52:17,760 --> 01:52:20,200 Speaker 1: if there's even an outside chance you name them, Yeah, 2372 01:52:20,240 --> 01:52:23,080 Speaker 1: But if you name Barmore and then he can't come back, 2373 01:52:23,600 --> 01:52:24,920 Speaker 1: you don't then get to go and say, well, we 2374 01:52:24,960 --> 01:52:27,920 Speaker 1: also play yeah, Marte Mapu on IR on cutdown day. 2375 01:52:27,960 --> 01:52:29,559 Speaker 1: So he's come back. No, that that's out. 2376 01:52:29,640 --> 01:52:30,360 Speaker 2: So yeah, you burned it. 2377 01:52:30,479 --> 01:52:33,360 Speaker 1: I would still leave the spot form. Yeah like you said, absolutely, 2378 01:52:33,400 --> 01:52:35,479 Speaker 1: but you don't get to figure it out later. 2379 01:52:35,720 --> 01:52:38,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's on cut down day. On cutdown day, Yeah, 2380 01:52:38,840 --> 01:52:42,000 Speaker 2: they will come out with the release and I'm hoping 2381 01:52:42,000 --> 01:52:44,679 Speaker 2: that we're gonna do it differently this year because they 2382 01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:47,000 Speaker 2: did it the other way for years because you know who, 2383 01:52:47,360 --> 01:52:49,519 Speaker 2: but they've come out with the release. One says we 2384 01:52:49,560 --> 01:52:53,479 Speaker 2: released these players, we waived these players, we ird these players. 2385 01:52:53,479 --> 01:52:55,439 Speaker 1: Well, they always did that. It just came out at 2386 01:52:55,439 --> 01:52:56,120 Speaker 1: like eight o'clock. 2387 01:52:56,320 --> 01:52:59,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, but then we would also have to like 2388 01:52:59,040 --> 01:53:04,200 Speaker 2: reverse engineer the from there, right right, So regardless released 2389 01:53:04,400 --> 01:53:07,240 Speaker 2: is veteran players with more than four crude seasons don't 2390 01:53:07,560 --> 01:53:10,120 Speaker 2: are not subject to waivers, right Yeah, so they just 2391 01:53:10,240 --> 01:53:12,880 Speaker 2: get outright release in our street free agents, then you 2392 01:53:12,880 --> 01:53:15,040 Speaker 2: have a waived. Those are the guys that do go 2393 01:53:15,120 --> 01:53:18,000 Speaker 2: through waivers obviously, and then they would have like the 2394 01:53:18,280 --> 01:53:20,960 Speaker 2: the IR end of year IR guys, so you know, 2395 01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:22,680 Speaker 2: you could reach an injury settlement. But let's not get 2396 01:53:22,720 --> 01:53:26,800 Speaker 2: too caught up in the minutia. So now when they 2397 01:53:27,760 --> 01:53:30,519 Speaker 2: submit to the league, this is our team when they 2398 01:53:30,560 --> 01:53:33,280 Speaker 2: go and submit those ir guys that in the past 2399 01:53:33,320 --> 01:53:35,880 Speaker 2: would be done for the year, right, you can now 2400 01:53:35,960 --> 01:53:39,000 Speaker 2: designate two guys in that process that could come back, and. 2401 01:53:39,040 --> 01:53:41,000 Speaker 1: It's they still have to miss. I think it's four games, 2402 01:53:41,080 --> 01:53:43,559 Speaker 1: just like Pup and everybody else. And then it's the 2403 01:53:43,600 --> 01:53:47,160 Speaker 1: same process from there where they practice, they're designated to 2404 01:53:47,200 --> 01:53:49,800 Speaker 1: return and it's twenty one days to actually put them 2405 01:53:49,800 --> 01:53:50,240 Speaker 1: on the roster. 2406 01:53:50,360 --> 01:53:58,000 Speaker 2: Yep. Okay, next down for me yep. Headlined by Alex Austen, 2407 01:53:58,320 --> 01:54:02,000 Speaker 2: but just the cornerback in general, I think is now 2408 01:54:02,040 --> 01:54:04,920 Speaker 2: becoming a little bit of an issue. Maybe it's it's 2409 01:54:04,920 --> 01:54:08,080 Speaker 2: also exacerbated by the fact that that Gonzales is just 2410 01:54:08,200 --> 01:54:11,559 Speaker 2: kind of we need we need a little bit more 2411 01:54:11,560 --> 01:54:13,320 Speaker 2: out of Christian Gonzalez. I think we all can say 2412 01:54:13,320 --> 01:54:15,400 Speaker 2: that I'm not panicked at all by Christian Gonzales. I'm 2413 01:54:15,400 --> 01:54:18,320 Speaker 2: not worried about it. But in terms of practice performance, 2414 01:54:18,360 --> 01:54:19,960 Speaker 2: you have to call a spatis bade right and and 2415 01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:21,760 Speaker 2: you have you need a little bit more out of them. 2416 01:54:21,760 --> 01:54:25,280 Speaker 2: But more importantly to me, uh, it's Marcus Jones is 2417 01:54:25,360 --> 01:54:30,200 Speaker 2: hurt again. Yep. Alex Austin's been not very good. 2418 01:54:30,560 --> 01:54:32,200 Speaker 1: I think he's been fine. We might we might have 2419 01:54:32,240 --> 01:54:34,040 Speaker 1: set the expectations for him a little too high. 2420 01:54:34,120 --> 01:54:35,320 Speaker 2: Sure, that's probably fair. 2421 01:54:35,880 --> 01:54:38,320 Speaker 1: He's been about what you would think, like, uh, you 2422 01:54:38,360 --> 01:54:39,280 Speaker 1: know U d f A. 2423 01:54:41,160 --> 01:54:41,360 Speaker 3: Yah. 2424 01:54:41,440 --> 01:54:41,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2425 01:54:41,840 --> 01:54:46,480 Speaker 2: I just every single day that goes by, I just 2426 01:54:46,520 --> 01:54:48,720 Speaker 2: wonder more and more if you put in the call, 2427 01:54:48,840 --> 01:54:53,000 Speaker 2: just fun mail the call because and and we're at 2428 01:54:53,000 --> 01:54:55,480 Speaker 2: the point now, No, we're no, we're on the same 2429 01:54:55,480 --> 01:54:57,360 Speaker 2: page here. We're at the point now where this is 2430 01:54:57,360 --> 01:55:02,320 Speaker 2: like actually becoming a little bit worrisome. It's not overly 2431 01:55:02,360 --> 01:55:05,600 Speaker 2: worrisome yet, because I still think Gonzalez and Jonathan Jones 2432 01:55:05,640 --> 01:55:08,640 Speaker 2: is a really really solid start. And then whoever fills 2433 01:55:08,680 --> 01:55:11,480 Speaker 2: in as the nickel, as a third corner, whatever you 2434 01:55:11,520 --> 01:55:14,839 Speaker 2: want to call it, that guy's gonna get favorable matchups. 2435 01:55:14,840 --> 01:55:16,480 Speaker 2: It's not gonna be like he's gonna be out there 2436 01:55:16,480 --> 01:55:19,280 Speaker 2: against Jamar Chase. Yeah. Right. But at the same time, 2437 01:55:20,080 --> 01:55:23,040 Speaker 2: that group we were bullish on the depth there, I'm 2438 01:55:23,040 --> 01:55:24,360 Speaker 2: not as bullish on it anymore. 2439 01:55:24,400 --> 01:55:26,440 Speaker 1: I'm not either. I'm with you to the last point 2440 01:55:26,480 --> 01:55:30,200 Speaker 1: you made this year. It's fine. I think some of 2441 01:55:30,240 --> 01:55:33,280 Speaker 1: the hope was Isaiah Bolden's second year player Alex Austin, 2442 01:55:33,280 --> 01:55:36,360 Speaker 1: second year player Marcellus Dile rookie was like John Jones 2443 01:55:36,360 --> 01:55:38,320 Speaker 1: thirty one, and of all the guys they resigned, he's 2444 01:55:38,320 --> 01:55:41,240 Speaker 1: not one. He's entering a contract year, so that's notable. 2445 01:55:41,760 --> 01:55:43,520 Speaker 1: I think the hope was one of these guys would 2446 01:55:43,520 --> 01:55:46,080 Speaker 1: emerge to, you know, be the three this year and 2447 01:55:46,080 --> 01:55:48,120 Speaker 1: then maybe become the two next year. Right and you 2448 01:55:48,360 --> 01:55:51,320 Speaker 1: cert next to Gonzalez and you certainly haven't seen that. 2449 01:55:51,880 --> 01:55:54,800 Speaker 1: To the first point when I said we're at that point, 2450 01:55:54,840 --> 01:55:56,680 Speaker 1: it wasn't even like we're at that point where I'm 2451 01:55:56,720 --> 01:55:59,240 Speaker 1: petrified about the depth I've been saying for a while, 2452 01:55:59,240 --> 01:56:01,400 Speaker 1: I think part of the re and Gilmore hasn't signed 2453 01:56:01,400 --> 01:56:04,160 Speaker 1: to simply I'm Stephan Gilmore. I'm a defensive player of 2454 01:56:04,200 --> 01:56:05,960 Speaker 1: the Year. I don't need to run win sprints for 2455 01:56:05,960 --> 01:56:08,120 Speaker 1: the first two weeks camp. Yeah, we're at the point 2456 01:56:08,120 --> 01:56:10,280 Speaker 1: now where it's like, this is when those guys, this 2457 01:56:10,320 --> 01:56:11,880 Speaker 1: is when those veterans are like, I'm gonna sit out 2458 01:56:11,880 --> 01:56:14,280 Speaker 1: the dog days camp. Dog days are over, Like if 2459 01:56:14,320 --> 01:56:16,360 Speaker 1: he wants to play this year, Now we're in the 2460 01:56:16,360 --> 01:56:19,400 Speaker 1: window where he's probably gonna sign within the next week 2461 01:56:19,480 --> 01:56:22,560 Speaker 1: or two. Uh, Like what was ze last year's I 2462 01:56:22,600 --> 01:56:24,880 Speaker 1: was just about to bring this up. So Zeke his 2463 01:56:25,160 --> 01:56:27,640 Speaker 1: very first practice with the Patriots was in Green Bay. 2464 01:56:27,680 --> 01:56:30,280 Speaker 1: It was that joint practice, joint practice, Yeah, going into 2465 01:56:30,280 --> 01:56:33,080 Speaker 1: the second preseason game, which makes sense because you want 2466 01:56:33,080 --> 01:56:34,320 Speaker 1: to get out there for like a drive. 2467 01:56:34,680 --> 01:56:37,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. So the the insadium practice that year would have 2468 01:56:38,000 --> 01:56:41,480 Speaker 2: been this Friday. It's gonna be Sunday with the season 2469 01:56:41,480 --> 01:56:44,440 Speaker 2: ticket holders out at training camp instead, And so Zeke 2470 01:56:44,520 --> 01:56:47,000 Speaker 2: signed right like the next day, and then was his 2471 01:56:47,040 --> 01:56:49,240 Speaker 2: first practice with the Patriots was in Green Bay, so 2472 01:56:49,680 --> 01:56:52,000 Speaker 2: being the equivalent of like the Tuesday joint practice with 2473 01:56:52,040 --> 01:56:55,520 Speaker 2: Philadelphia would be the practice that they got him in there. 2474 01:56:55,560 --> 01:56:57,720 Speaker 1: But I just noticed some watching on here. The shadow 2475 01:56:57,760 --> 01:56:59,960 Speaker 1: of the wires on your shirt makes like a perfect fifty. 2476 01:57:00,080 --> 01:57:01,680 Speaker 1: That's just but well now you moved, you ruined it. 2477 01:57:01,760 --> 01:57:04,560 Speaker 1: But that just bugged me out. I'll show you picture. 2478 01:57:04,640 --> 01:57:06,880 Speaker 2: I'd wear fifty. It's a good number. Right, We have 2479 01:57:06,920 --> 01:57:07,640 Speaker 2: to wrap. 2480 01:57:07,400 --> 01:57:10,040 Speaker 1: So sorry, Yeah, Gilmour, Uh it were next down place 2481 01:57:10,080 --> 01:57:12,200 Speaker 1: from the sign. Well I had the kickers. 2482 01:57:12,640 --> 01:57:14,600 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and we are already do that. Sorry, Do 2483 01:57:14,640 --> 01:57:15,280 Speaker 2: you have any more? 2484 01:57:15,960 --> 01:57:17,600 Speaker 1: Uh No, that's pretty much it. There haven't been that 2485 01:57:17,600 --> 01:57:20,240 Speaker 1: many like glaring offensive line. 2486 01:57:20,600 --> 01:57:21,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the big one. 2487 01:57:22,000 --> 01:57:24,280 Speaker 1: Like it's been a solid competitive camp. 2488 01:57:24,320 --> 01:57:26,800 Speaker 2: Okay, can I give you this one that is not 2489 01:57:26,840 --> 01:57:28,960 Speaker 2: a I hate to put him as a down because 2490 01:57:28,960 --> 01:57:31,120 Speaker 2: it's not a true down because there's just so much 2491 01:57:31,200 --> 01:57:35,920 Speaker 2: upside and potential there. But the frustrations of like Javon 2492 01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:37,840 Speaker 2: Baker starting to come out a little bit for me, 2493 01:57:38,160 --> 01:57:40,000 Speaker 2: drops are starting to add up. Yeah, the drops are 2494 01:57:40,000 --> 01:57:42,000 Speaker 2: starting to add up a little bit. And he's starting 2495 01:57:42,040 --> 01:57:44,440 Speaker 2: to to show, which is what you know, some of 2496 01:57:44,440 --> 01:57:46,840 Speaker 2: the things in college, and again, like he gets open, 2497 01:57:46,880 --> 01:57:49,400 Speaker 2: which is the most important thing. Like, I still have 2498 01:57:49,520 --> 01:57:51,120 Speaker 2: a lot of hope for him, and I'm not trying 2499 01:57:51,160 --> 01:57:55,280 Speaker 2: to to, you know, kill him. But the knock on 2500 01:57:55,360 --> 01:57:59,000 Speaker 2: him in college was consistency, right, like down in and 2501 01:57:59,040 --> 01:58:03,640 Speaker 2: down out, consistent, The splash plays were always there, They're 2502 01:58:03,680 --> 01:58:07,560 Speaker 2: always there. Consistency was the biggest thing. And right now, 2503 01:58:07,840 --> 01:58:10,160 Speaker 2: you know he yesterday and the two minute and granted 2504 01:58:10,240 --> 01:58:13,080 Speaker 2: it's raining and all, I get all the caveats, but 2505 01:58:13,200 --> 01:58:17,920 Speaker 2: like Drake May throws up perfectly timed out to him 2506 01:58:17,920 --> 01:58:21,240 Speaker 2: at the sticks and it just goes right through his hands. Right, 2507 01:58:21,840 --> 01:58:24,920 Speaker 2: he dropped a slant like against air earlier on in 2508 01:58:24,920 --> 01:58:28,640 Speaker 2: the practice. Those are the types of plays that if 2509 01:58:28,640 --> 01:58:31,040 Speaker 2: he's gonna be a high volume guy and not just 2510 01:58:31,400 --> 01:58:34,000 Speaker 2: like remember you know the Gabe Davis komp like just 2511 01:58:34,160 --> 01:58:36,840 Speaker 2: have these big, big games and peaks and valleys. If 2512 01:58:36,880 --> 01:58:39,480 Speaker 2: he's gonna be like a high volume, one hundred catch guy, 2513 01:58:39,600 --> 01:58:43,240 Speaker 2: someday he's gonna have to make these layups. Like he 2514 01:58:43,280 --> 01:58:45,520 Speaker 2: can make the hard ones, he can make these acrobatic 2515 01:58:45,560 --> 01:58:48,520 Speaker 2: crazy catches down the field, but if he can't catch 2516 01:58:48,600 --> 01:58:51,320 Speaker 2: the eight yard out or the you know, the three 2517 01:58:51,360 --> 01:58:53,440 Speaker 2: step slant over the middle of the field, and he's 2518 01:58:53,480 --> 01:58:56,920 Speaker 2: just dropping the ball uncontested, you know, unforced errors. That's 2519 01:58:56,960 --> 01:58:59,200 Speaker 2: why he's not gonna see the ball at a high volume. 2520 01:58:59,520 --> 01:59:03,080 Speaker 2: And those are some of the warts with him right now. 2521 01:59:03,160 --> 01:59:05,400 Speaker 1: Right he's the kind of player where he's always going 2522 01:59:05,440 --> 01:59:07,280 Speaker 1: to be a boom er bus player. Yeah, he's gonna 2523 01:59:07,280 --> 01:59:09,400 Speaker 1: make great plays. There's gonna be some drops. You hope 2524 01:59:09,400 --> 01:59:11,440 Speaker 1: the good outweighs the bad. He needs to prove the 2525 01:59:11,440 --> 01:59:13,400 Speaker 1: good's going to outweigh the bad. Right now, that ratio 2526 01:59:13,480 --> 01:59:14,760 Speaker 1: not exactly where he needs it to be. 2527 01:59:14,880 --> 01:59:16,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, really quickly before we rap, is there 2528 01:59:16,800 --> 01:59:19,600 Speaker 2: anything else about tomorrow night first preseason game that you're 2529 01:59:19,640 --> 01:59:22,360 Speaker 2: looking forward to outside of you know, the quarterbacks and 2530 01:59:22,360 --> 01:59:22,880 Speaker 2: things like that. 2531 01:59:23,240 --> 01:59:24,400 Speaker 1: I mean, we touched on a lot of it, all 2532 01:59:24,400 --> 01:59:26,160 Speaker 1: of my what to watch for up tomorrow on ninety 2533 01:59:26,160 --> 01:59:28,480 Speaker 1: eight five the sports dot Com. Just I think the 2534 01:59:28,560 --> 01:59:31,520 Speaker 1: operation as a whole, you know, what coaches are on 2535 01:59:31,520 --> 01:59:33,320 Speaker 1: the sideline, what coaches are on the booth, what coaches 2536 01:59:33,360 --> 01:59:35,200 Speaker 1: are meeting with, what group Like We've never really had 2537 01:59:35,200 --> 01:59:37,800 Speaker 1: to cover something like that before, not as a whole, 2538 01:59:37,800 --> 01:59:40,400 Speaker 1: maybe individual coaches, but that that part's gonna be interesting 2539 01:59:40,480 --> 01:59:40,720 Speaker 1: to make. 2540 01:59:40,880 --> 01:59:42,920 Speaker 2: I'm with you on that. I find that part kind 2541 01:59:42,920 --> 01:59:45,440 Speaker 2: of fascinating, Like this is a true dress rehearsal for 2542 01:59:45,520 --> 01:59:48,720 Speaker 2: Girodmeo's staff as well as it is for the players, 2543 01:59:48,720 --> 01:59:51,960 Speaker 2: and it might actually be more important from a procedural standpoint, 2544 01:59:52,160 --> 01:59:54,760 Speaker 2: like we were talking about earlier in the show, calling 2545 01:59:54,800 --> 01:59:56,480 Speaker 2: plays in the huddle and getting to the line of 2546 01:59:56,480 --> 01:59:58,080 Speaker 2: scrimmage and getting the ball snap. I know this all 2547 01:59:58,200 --> 02:00:01,000 Speaker 2: sounds pop Warner, I get that, but this is the 2548 02:00:01,040 --> 02:00:05,160 Speaker 2: first time that they're truly doing that live with Gerrod Mayo. 2549 02:00:05,720 --> 02:00:08,680 Speaker 2: Who's calling you know, where's a VP? Is he up 2550 02:00:08,720 --> 02:00:10,560 Speaker 2: in the booth? Is he on the sideline? I'm assuming 2551 02:00:10,560 --> 02:00:13,000 Speaker 2: he's gonna be on the sideline. All these things are 2552 02:00:13,040 --> 02:00:15,200 Speaker 2: are now the time where we're gonna find out all 2553 02:00:15,240 --> 02:00:17,200 Speaker 2: these things, and it's gonna be interesting to see how 2554 02:00:17,200 --> 02:00:19,840 Speaker 2: it's all handled. I don't know how much like fourth 2555 02:00:19,880 --> 02:00:22,240 Speaker 2: down they're gonna get into decision making wise, but if 2556 02:00:22,240 --> 02:00:24,400 Speaker 2: there is a decision to make, like what does he 2557 02:00:24,480 --> 02:00:26,920 Speaker 2: do right? You know, those types of things are gonna 2558 02:00:26,920 --> 02:00:30,560 Speaker 2: be fascinating. One more thing before we sign off this season, 2559 02:00:30,560 --> 02:00:36,680 Speaker 2: ticket holder practices on Sunday, and we're gonna do a 2560 02:00:36,720 --> 02:00:39,600 Speaker 2: you know, like a little bit of like a show 2561 02:00:39,720 --> 02:00:42,480 Speaker 2: during it.
