I 17 00:01:03,828 --> 00:01:06,708 Speaker 3: love you, but you're not serious people. The Panthers are 18 00:01:06,708 --> 00:01:09,108 Speaker 3: trying to be serious people. They win the division, they're 19 00:01:09,108 --> 00:01:11,588 Speaker 3: in the playoffs, and they're making moves. Tell us about it. 20 00:01:11,748 --> 00:01:14,148 Speaker 4: The Panthers are on the verge of being really, really 21 00:01:14,268 --> 00:01:17,828 Speaker 4: serious and look they made some significant strides as an 22 00:01:17,948 --> 00:01:19,948 Speaker 4: organization last year. And you know, there was a lot 23 00:01:19,948 --> 00:01:22,188 Speaker 4: of folks, especially late in the season, on Zerio Everro, 24 00:01:22,628 --> 00:01:25,508 Speaker 4: the respected defensive coordinator and his job set as what 25 00:01:25,708 --> 00:01:27,388 Speaker 4: is it going to be in the organization decide, you 26 00:01:27,388 --> 00:01:30,388 Speaker 4: know what, he is excellent. We are just going to 27 00:01:30,468 --> 00:01:32,948 Speaker 4: get him better players. And that is what they said 28 00:01:32,948 --> 00:01:36,628 Speaker 4: about doing yesterday. The deal late last night which Mike 29 00:01:36,668 --> 00:01:39,748 Speaker 4: and I brought to you, Devin Lloyd, the former All 30 00:01:39,868 --> 00:01:42,988 Speaker 4: Pro for the Jacksonville Jaguars, agrees to turn that's the 31 00:01:43,108 --> 00:01:45,348 Speaker 4: NFL great might beat so much better than that anyway, 32 00:01:45,508 --> 00:01:47,988 Speaker 4: agrees to turns on a three or forty five million 33 00:01:47,988 --> 00:01:52,068 Speaker 4: dollars deal, twenty five million dollars guaranteed in a deal 34 00:01:52,148 --> 00:01:55,588 Speaker 4: done by Andre Odom and AJ Stevens and for Devin Lloyd. 35 00:01:55,588 --> 00:01:57,108 Speaker 4: I mean, look, it was a tough market for an 36 00:01:57,108 --> 00:01:59,788 Speaker 4: off the ball linebacker. When the Cowboys got in the 37 00:01:59,828 --> 00:02:02,868 Speaker 4: mix late last night, this thing really took off the 38 00:02:02,948 --> 00:02:06,988 Speaker 4: Panthers at a huge piece in the middle of their defense. 39 00:02:07,588 --> 00:02:10,068 Speaker 4: And then earlier in the day another big one Jalen 40 00:02:10,108 --> 00:02:11,988 Speaker 4: Phillips one of the best deals of the day. He 41 00:02:11,988 --> 00:02:15,588 Speaker 4: gets a four year, one hundred and twenty million dollars 42 00:02:15,708 --> 00:02:18,588 Speaker 4: deal for Jalen Phillips Rember the Philadelphilus traded for a 43 00:02:18,628 --> 00:02:22,028 Speaker 4: midseason gave up a third, got two sacks out of him, 44 00:02:22,028 --> 00:02:24,348 Speaker 4: but a lot of pressures and a lot of activities. 45 00:02:24,388 --> 00:02:28,068 Speaker 4: Certainly someone who could be a difference maker upbrought deblits 46 00:02:28,108 --> 00:02:31,228 Speaker 4: of injuries in his career, now fully healthy and ready 47 00:02:31,268 --> 00:02:35,068 Speaker 4: to help ignite this resurgent Carolina Panthers defense. 48 00:02:35,348 --> 00:02:38,988 Speaker 5: One of the biggest names available in free agency is 49 00:02:39,268 --> 00:02:42,628 Speaker 5: right back where we all expected. Travis Kelce back for 50 00:02:42,788 --> 00:02:47,228 Speaker 5: more in Kansas City, agreeing to terms on Monday on 51 00:02:47,468 --> 00:02:50,068 Speaker 5: a deal that can pay him up to fifteen million 52 00:02:50,108 --> 00:02:53,948 Speaker 5: dollars in twenty twenty six. We'll see the final structure 53 00:02:54,108 --> 00:02:56,428 Speaker 5: of this deal. There's some complications in terms of how 54 00:02:56,428 --> 00:02:58,388 Speaker 5: they actually set it up for Kelsey, but he is 55 00:02:58,468 --> 00:02:59,148 Speaker 5: very much on a. 56 00:02:59,148 --> 00:03:01,188 Speaker 3: Year to year basis and showed last. 57 00:03:00,988 --> 00:03:03,788 Speaker 5: Season he does still have some gas left in the tank. 58 00:03:04,508 --> 00:03:08,148 Speaker 5: Six years old going into year fourteen games and thought 59 00:03:08,188 --> 00:03:10,068 Speaker 5: in recent weeks to whether or not he wanted to 60 00:03:10,068 --> 00:03:13,268 Speaker 5: continue playing. Ultimately decided he will be back on a 61 00:03:13,348 --> 00:03:15,988 Speaker 5: Chiefs team that's also been buoyed by the addition of 62 00:03:16,108 --> 00:03:18,668 Speaker 5: Kenneth Walker the third and then we'll have Patrick Mahomes 63 00:03:18,748 --> 00:03:21,788 Speaker 5: they hope ready by the start of next season, coming 64 00:03:21,788 --> 00:03:24,828 Speaker 5: back from his four in acl Meanwhile, the Cowboys made 65 00:03:24,868 --> 00:03:27,508 Speaker 5: a trade for an edge rusher. It's not the one 66 00:03:27,548 --> 00:03:30,628 Speaker 5: that many people were hoping for. After missing out on 67 00:03:30,828 --> 00:03:34,188 Speaker 5: Max Strowsby, who went to the Ravens, the Cowboys swung 68 00:03:34,188 --> 00:03:36,708 Speaker 5: a deal with you guessed at the Packers, this time 69 00:03:36,748 --> 00:03:39,068 Speaker 5: to get a pass rusher. After said to Michael Parsons, 70 00:03:39,188 --> 00:03:41,828 Speaker 5: it's for Shan Gary headed to Dallas and he staged 71 00:03:41,868 --> 00:03:45,108 Speaker 5: for a twenty twenty seven fourth round pick. Gary had 72 00:03:45,148 --> 00:03:47,988 Speaker 5: been shopped in trade talks in recent days. There were 73 00:03:47,988 --> 00:03:50,908 Speaker 5: others that fell through, had a pretty big number, no 74 00:03:51,068 --> 00:03:55,228 Speaker 5: guaranteed money. He said goodbye, then he deleted it, and 75 00:03:55,228 --> 00:03:57,428 Speaker 5: then he said social media was hacked. I know, and 76 00:03:57,508 --> 00:04:00,988 Speaker 5: I have my social media hacked across multiple platforms that 77 00:04:01,068 --> 00:04:05,748 Speaker 5: post the same polished graphics statement making a message to fans. 78 00:04:05,788 --> 00:04:08,708 Speaker 5: That's that's my usual mo at any rate. Ultimately, it 79 00:04:08,748 --> 00:04:11,428 Speaker 5: wasn't goodbye for Rashaun Gary. He's got a new home. 80 00:04:11,668 --> 00:04:14,668 Speaker 5: It is the Cowboys landing a pass rusher, and we'll 81 00:04:14,708 --> 00:04:16,428 Speaker 5: see they may not be entirely. 82 00:04:16,188 --> 00:04:17,508 Speaker 3: Done at that position, either. 83 00:04:17,668 --> 00:04:20,788 Speaker 4: Like he deleted it and then when he actually said goodbye, 84 00:04:20,788 --> 00:04:22,748 Speaker 4: did he post it again, or is it just like 85 00:04:22,948 --> 00:04:25,268 Speaker 4: there's no goodbye, it just disappeared in to eat there 86 00:04:25,428 --> 00:04:26,388 Speaker 4: you get an update on that. 87 00:04:26,668 --> 00:04:28,748 Speaker 5: No, it's like when you use when you burn a 88 00:04:28,828 --> 00:04:31,068 Speaker 5: tweet draft, you just kind of go all right, well 89 00:04:31,068 --> 00:04:32,908 Speaker 5: that was gone. I'm just gonna not even bother to 90 00:04:32,948 --> 00:04:35,068 Speaker 5: send it up again because his ex has gotten so 91 00:04:35,148 --> 00:04:37,428 Speaker 5: messed up now that every time you adjust the tweet, 92 00:04:37,428 --> 00:04:40,148 Speaker 5: even if you change one letter, it deletes your photo picture. 93 00:04:40,348 --> 00:04:41,228 Speaker 3: Then you got to start over. 94 00:04:41,348 --> 00:04:45,028 Speaker 5: Kyle. It's really become a brutal platform to work on 95 00:04:45,148 --> 00:04:47,908 Speaker 5: under the high pressure conditions we have here during the 96 00:04:47,988 --> 00:04:51,748 Speaker 5: free agency frenzy. With all nine hundred people who work. 97 00:04:51,628 --> 00:04:53,268 Speaker 3: At NFL Network. It's not as many as it used 98 00:04:53,308 --> 00:04:53,468 Speaker 3: to be. 99 00:04:53,628 --> 00:04:55,868 Speaker 5: All one hundred people that work at the NFL network 100 00:04:55,948 --> 00:04:58,668 Speaker 5: all part of that show which starts right after this 101 00:04:58,708 --> 00:04:59,868 Speaker 5: show you're on NFL Network. 102 00:04:59,948 --> 00:05:02,308 Speaker 3: It really does and you can follow along on Twitter 103 00:05:02,428 --> 00:05:05,908 Speaker 3: at John Oliver said recently Twitter or as we've been 104 00:05:05,908 --> 00:05:09,148 Speaker 3: calling it for the last couple of years, Twitter Ian. 105 00:05:09,428 --> 00:05:11,268 Speaker 3: I also wanted to mention you this has come up. 106 00:05:11,268 --> 00:05:14,268 Speaker 3: A couple of times I've heard billionaires say there's always 107 00:05:14,268 --> 00:05:16,468 Speaker 3: a bigger jet.

Ian really cannot be stopped from doing the end. 127 00:06:12,228 --> 00:06:14,388 Speaker 3: At this time of year, Kyle and I have some 128 00:06:14,468 --> 00:06:16,508 Speaker 3: I have the question for you guys. This is inside Baseball. 129 00:06:16,548 --> 00:06:18,708 Speaker 3: But first of all, I'm looking at the last paragraph 130 00:06:18,748 --> 00:06:22,188 Speaker 3: I and andre odom gets the act and I'm just 131 00:06:22,308 --> 00:06:25,988 Speaker 3: guessing that AJ Stevens doesn't have social media. And to 132 00:06:26,028 --> 00:06:29,348 Speaker 3: a bigger point, Ian, there are people who see these tweets, 133 00:06:29,388 --> 00:06:32,348 Speaker 3: just hard hat football fans, who are like, why does 134 00:06:32,388 --> 00:06:34,588 Speaker 3: there have to be mentioned of the agents? Why is 135 00:06:34,628 --> 00:06:36,228 Speaker 3: it always that? Can you just mention the player to 136 00:06:36,268 --> 00:06:38,108 Speaker 3: the The agents have to be famous too, Can you 137 00:06:38,108 --> 00:06:38,748 Speaker 3: guys speak to the. 138 00:06:39,308 --> 00:06:40,068 Speaker 2: I can sure. 139 00:06:41,148 --> 00:06:44,108 Speaker 4: What I would say is, if you don't want to 140 00:06:44,668 --> 00:06:47,508 Speaker 4: read about the agents, then stop reading. And if you 141 00:06:47,508 --> 00:06:49,268 Speaker 4: don't want to give credit to the people who are 142 00:06:49,428 --> 00:06:53,588 Speaker 4: helping these really really good players make millions and millions of. 143 00:06:53,548 --> 00:06:54,548 Speaker 2: Dollars, uh. 144 00:06:54,668 --> 00:06:56,908 Speaker 4: If you want to pretend that those people don't exist 145 00:06:56,908 --> 00:06:59,468 Speaker 4: and the players make the money only themselves with no 146 00:06:59,508 --> 00:07:02,588 Speaker 4: one to negotiate these deals with these you know, billionaire 147 00:07:02,588 --> 00:07:05,708 Speaker 4: owners and these multi billion dollars teams, then you should 148 00:07:05,708 --> 00:07:07,988 Speaker 4: definitely ignore them. If you'd like to give people the 149 00:07:08,028 --> 00:07:09,988 Speaker 4: proper credit for the work that they make all this 150 00:07:10,108 --> 00:07:11,308 Speaker 4: money for, then. 151 00:07:11,188 --> 00:07:12,788 Speaker 3: You should definitely read to the end. 152 00:07:12,828 --> 00:07:15,348 Speaker 4: Of tweed and see guys like Andrea Odam and aj 153 00:07:15,468 --> 00:07:18,468 Speaker 4: Stevens doing really good deals for offootball linebackers bite a 154 00:07:18,548 --> 00:07:19,708 Speaker 4: very tough, tough market. 155 00:07:19,788 --> 00:07:22,908 Speaker 5: Okay, also at a very fundamental level, At a very 156 00:07:22,908 --> 00:07:27,868 Speaker 5: fundamental level, Kyle, if at times, if people's names are 157 00:07:27,868 --> 00:07:29,948 Speaker 5: not included in the tweet, maybe they would just start 158 00:07:29,988 --> 00:07:33,228 Speaker 5: posting it themselves. Maybe that would render us irrelevant. So 159 00:07:33,468 --> 00:07:36,708 Speaker 5: if certain people at times might want to get the credit, 160 00:07:37,068 --> 00:07:41,108 Speaker 5: it's behooves everybody to at times give those people the credit. 161 00:07:41,188 --> 00:07:43,988 Speaker 5: It's not every single one, it's not every single news scoop. 162 00:07:44,028 --> 00:07:45,188 Speaker 3: There's a variety of different. 163 00:07:44,988 --> 00:07:47,788 Speaker 5: Ways you get things, but sometimes it's just better to 164 00:07:47,908 --> 00:07:48,508 Speaker 5: air on the. 165 00:07:48,468 --> 00:07:50,748 Speaker 3: Side of cars.

We've been inside the minutia contracts 177 00:08:21,148 --> 00:08:24,668 Speaker 3: and positions and everything. What is your larger view of it? 178 00:08:24,748 --> 00:08:27,628 Speaker 3: Your biggest takeaway from what we saw yesterday and the 179 00:08:27,668 --> 00:08:28,868 Speaker 3: first wave of free agency? 180 00:08:29,508 --> 00:08:33,548 Speaker 6: My biggest takeaway, honestly, I share the opinion of a 181 00:08:33,668 --> 00:08:36,708 Speaker 6: New York Jets player that I saw tweet yesterday. Brees 182 00:08:36,788 --> 00:08:39,868 Speaker 6: Hall tweeted this yesterday and now, honestly I had very 183 00:08:39,908 --> 00:08:42,388 Speaker 6: similar feelings. Can we bring up this tweet that Brits 184 00:08:42,468 --> 00:08:46,188 Speaker 6: Hall put on He said he's pocket watching because you're 185 00:08:46,188 --> 00:08:48,548 Speaker 6: seeing a lot of these teams spend a lot of 186 00:08:48,708 --> 00:08:51,508 Speaker 6: money and some of these positions, some of these players, 187 00:08:51,868 --> 00:08:54,948 Speaker 6: I personally think are overpaid. I think that it also 188 00:08:55,068 --> 00:08:57,388 Speaker 6: speaks to this year's draft class. 189 00:08:57,428 --> 00:08:59,068 Speaker 2: I think that is a week draft class. 190 00:08:59,068 --> 00:09:00,828 Speaker 6: There or some gems at the top, but if you 191 00:09:00,828 --> 00:09:03,708 Speaker 6: look at the quarterback, the wide receiver, the running back, 192 00:09:03,828 --> 00:09:07,868 Speaker 6: the defense live position, it is an in general week class. 193 00:09:07,908 --> 00:09:10,028 Speaker 6: I mean I saw some of the fullbacks. They're also 194 00:09:10,068 --> 00:09:13,268 Speaker 6: getting some money. My best deal was a two for five. 195 00:09:13,308 --> 00:09:14,188 Speaker 6: It was a Windys deal. 196 00:09:14,348 --> 00:09:17,068 Speaker 2: I'm seeing some two for twelve, some three for four teams. 197 00:09:17,268 --> 00:09:20,908 Speaker 6: It's looking more like cheesecake factory now. I like Chiefscake factory. Man, 198 00:09:21,108 --> 00:09:23,108 Speaker 6: I'm gonna have some motivation to get back in there 199 00:09:23,268 --> 00:09:26,468 Speaker 6: because the money that's being spent right now is a lots. 200 00:09:26,748 --> 00:09:30,388 Speaker 6: I think there's just we're paying for potential and before 201 00:09:30,468 --> 00:09:31,788 Speaker 6: it used to be you're paid. 202 00:09:31,548 --> 00:09:33,228 Speaker 2: For the stats and for the production. 203 00:09:33,388 --> 00:09:35,268 Speaker 6: I think there's a lot of guys right now being 204 00:09:35,308 --> 00:09:38,868 Speaker 6: paid for potential right now. Dote oh Way, Jalen Phillips, 205 00:09:38,908 --> 00:09:42,508 Speaker 6: Alec Pierce, Jordan Davis. I think they're handcuffing some teams 206 00:09:42,548 --> 00:09:45,068 Speaker 6: right now and not allowing them to pay and get 207 00:09:45,108 --> 00:09:46,908 Speaker 6: some more help at other positions. 208 00:09:47,188 --> 00:09:50,108 Speaker 7: I think what you're seeing is money talks. You're seeing 209 00:09:50,188 --> 00:09:53,748 Speaker 7: money talks. It's hard to compete for multiple top free 210 00:09:53,748 --> 00:09:56,988 Speaker 7: agents when you don't have the cap space. That's why 211 00:09:56,988 --> 00:10:01,108 Speaker 7: you're seeing the teams like the Raiders, the Chargers, the Titans, Commanders, 212 00:10:01,228 --> 00:10:04,068 Speaker 7: the Jets. The teams with the top five cap space 213 00:10:04,548 --> 00:10:07,588 Speaker 7: actually make waves as free agency. And it shows you're 214 00:10:07,628 --> 00:10:10,468 Speaker 7: even seeing the New Orleans Saints who are getting themselves 215 00:10:10,588 --> 00:10:13,748 Speaker 7: out of cap hell and starting to actually make moves, 216 00:10:13,788 --> 00:10:16,148 Speaker 7: and they made a move for Travis Etn which with 217 00:10:16,228 --> 00:10:18,308 Speaker 7: that much money, you would never expected the Saint to 218 00:10:18,308 --> 00:10:20,388 Speaker 7: be able to do with the cap space problem that 219 00:10:20,428 --> 00:10:23,828 Speaker 7: they've had. And that goes to show that these gms 220 00:10:24,148 --> 00:10:26,548 Speaker 7: have their jobs and they work really cut out for them. 221 00:10:26,828 --> 00:10:30,228 Speaker 7: They have to manage to cap better, so that you 222 00:10:31,668 --> 00:10:35,988 Speaker 7: really see when free agency starts, your team actually in 223 00:10:36,028 --> 00:10:39,508 Speaker 7: the heat of it trying to improve their team year 224 00:10:39,548 --> 00:10:40,068 Speaker 7: after year. 225 00:10:40,428 --> 00:10:42,388 Speaker 3: I hear you and we talk all the time about 226 00:10:42,428 --> 00:10:46,108 Speaker 3: how difficult it is to draft the right quarterback. I'm 227 00:10:46,228 --> 00:10:49,188 Speaker 3: learning this week that it is even more difficult sometimes 228 00:10:49,188 --> 00:10:52,828 Speaker 3: to decide to give that quarterback an extension. Let's think 229 00:10:52,868 --> 00:10:55,148 Speaker 3: about what we're seeing all around these ripple affection the 230 00:10:55,228 --> 00:10:59,188 Speaker 3: lead from the quarterbacks, Tua, Kyler Murray. These are guys 231 00:10:59,228 --> 00:11:03,028 Speaker 3: who were drafted by their team giving huge, huge extensions 232 00:11:03,628 --> 00:11:06,188 Speaker 3: that now they're paying for. I mean, you've seen these 233 00:11:06,268 --> 00:11:08,668 Speaker 3: numbers about what the Miami Dolphins still owe Tua, what 234 00:11:08,668 --> 00:11:11,868 Speaker 3: they're gonna be paying him. It's ridiculous, ridiculous. And you 235 00:11:11,948 --> 00:11:14,348 Speaker 3: to see the numbers of what Arizona is paying Kyler Murray. 236 00:11:14,428 --> 00:11:16,068 Speaker 3: So it's you get to this point as a team 237 00:11:16,068 --> 00:11:18,588 Speaker 3: where you draft a quarterback that maybe you really like 238 00:11:19,108 --> 00:11:22,988 Speaker 3: but don't necessarily love. If you don't love him, it 239 00:11:23,068 --> 00:11:25,668 Speaker 3: is really difficult to give him that extension anyway. And 240 00:11:25,708 --> 00:11:27,268 Speaker 3: I feel like teams want to do it just so 241 00:11:27,308 --> 00:11:29,388 Speaker 3: they don't have to fall on the sword and admit 242 00:11:29,468 --> 00:11:31,868 Speaker 3: a loss and no, we're behind him and we believe 243 00:11:31,908 --> 00:11:35,268 Speaker 3: in Do you really? I mean, did the Cardinals really 244 00:11:35,348 --> 00:11:37,148 Speaker 3: think that Kyler Murray was gonna get him to a 245 00:11:37,148 --> 00:11:39,828 Speaker 3: super Bowl? There was all kinds of issues with studying 246 00:11:39,908 --> 00:11:42,508 Speaker 3: and clauses and concentration, and they extended him. Tua had 247 00:11:42,508 --> 00:11:44,548 Speaker 3: all these issues and they extended him. I think it's 248 00:11:44,588 --> 00:11:46,908 Speaker 3: really hard for teams to admit they got the guy wrong. 249 00:11:47,228 --> 00:11:50,668 Speaker 3: And that brings us to now there's some discussions they 250 00:11:50,708 --> 00:11:52,988 Speaker 3: have to be going on in Houston with what c J. 251 00:11:53,108 --> 00:11:55,068 Speaker 3: Stroud did in the playoffs. And I don't love saying this. 252 00:11:55,148 --> 00:11:57,068 Speaker 3: I like c J. Stroud as a player, but are 253 00:11:57,068 --> 00:11:58,828 Speaker 3: you just gonna say screw it? We believe in CJ. 254 00:11:58,868 --> 00:12:00,028 Speaker 3: And we just want to stick with them, and we're 255 00:12:00,028 --> 00:12:03,188 Speaker 3: going to give him mass mass mass extension, all right? 256 00:12:03,588 --> 00:12:05,148 Speaker 3: And I hope if you do, I hope it works 257 00:12:05,188 --> 00:12:07,708 Speaker 3: I'm not rooting against it at all, but in free 258 00:12:07,748 --> 00:12:10,708 Speaker 3: agency now you are seeing all these insane things happen 259 00:12:10,748 --> 00:12:14,828 Speaker 3: with money management and quarterback turnover because teams gave massive 260 00:12:14,908 --> 00:12:17,628 Speaker 3: extensions to players who did not live up to them. 261 00:12:17,988 --> 00:12:20,748 Speaker 3: The draft is hard enough, but sometimes it can be 262 00:12:20,748 --> 00:12:24,068 Speaker 3: even a worse mistake to give that big extension to 263 00:12:24,108 --> 00:12:26,348 Speaker 3: a quarterback. You draft it and you like, but don't love. 264 00:12:26,868 --> 00:12:29,108 Speaker 3: Be careful if you do it, love the guy if 265 00:12:29,108 --> 00:12:34,028 Speaker 3: you're going to do it. Hi, welcome back to Good 266 00:12:34,028 --> 00:12:36,668 Speaker 3: Morning Football. Let's break out the whiteboards. It's what we 267 00:12:36,668 --> 00:12:38,388 Speaker 3: do here. We've been doing it for a decade. It's 268 00:12:38,388 --> 00:12:41,228 Speaker 3: a little game that we like to call what's the word? 269 00:12:41,268 --> 00:12:43,468 Speaker 3: Not whiteboard Wednesday. We'll do that tomorrow. I will tee 270 00:12:43,468 --> 00:12:46,268 Speaker 3: you guys up on a team, okay, maybe one of 271 00:12:46,268 --> 00:12:48,748 Speaker 3: these teams that's been heavily involved in free agency, and 272 00:12:48,788 --> 00:12:52,588 Speaker 3: you are tasked with writing one word on the whiteboard, 273 00:12:52,828 --> 00:12:55,828 Speaker 3: and no, no hyphenated words, not two words, not a phrase, 274 00:12:56,548 --> 00:12:59,588 Speaker 3: one word that you think applies to the TF. The 275 00:12:59,588 --> 00:13:02,988 Speaker 3: TF in this case being the New York Giants active 276 00:13:03,108 --> 00:13:05,268 Speaker 3: on Monday. Let's feast your eyes on the New York 277 00:13:05,308 --> 00:13:08,588 Speaker 3: Giants under John Harbaugh, All right, so isaaa likely you 278 00:13:08,588 --> 00:13:12,948 Speaker 3: know has long relationship with him. Tremaine Edmunds from the 279 00:13:12,948 --> 00:13:14,788 Speaker 3: Bears was really good. He was banged up a little 280 00:13:14,828 --> 00:13:17,468 Speaker 3: last year, but like your classic middle linebackers, makes a 281 00:13:17,468 --> 00:13:19,588 Speaker 3: ton of plays. And then a couple other guys including 282 00:13:19,588 --> 00:13:21,868 Speaker 3: going on Chefski, Jermaine and Luminor like they got some guys. 283 00:13:21,948 --> 00:13:25,068 Speaker 3: John Harbaugh's not messing around, and neither are we. One 284 00:13:25,148 --> 00:13:29,348 Speaker 3: word to describe how you feel about the Giants right now. 285 00:13:30,348 --> 00:13:34,748 Speaker 6: I love, love, love what I'm seeing about the Giants 286 00:13:34,828 --> 00:13:38,428 Speaker 6: right now. Mine is resurgence, the resurgence of the New 287 00:13:38,508 --> 00:13:40,748 Speaker 6: York Giants. I'll tell you guys a little bit story. 288 00:13:40,828 --> 00:13:43,748 Speaker 6: You saw the signing Tremaine Edmonds, three year, thirty six 289 00:13:43,748 --> 00:13:48,908 Speaker 6: million dollars. I was training with Tremaine Edmonds in ex Selston, Petzacola, Florida, 290 00:13:49,428 --> 00:13:52,268 Speaker 6: and I swear to you guys, I was twenty one. 291 00:13:52,588 --> 00:13:55,028 Speaker 2: Tremaine Edmunds was like sixteen years old. 292 00:13:55,308 --> 00:13:57,428 Speaker 6: He's in his eighth year and he's like twenty four. 293 00:13:57,548 --> 00:14:00,348 Speaker 6: This is like still a young player, and he's great. 294 00:14:00,388 --> 00:14:03,948 Speaker 6: He's got great size, a ton of tackles, interceptions last year. 295 00:14:03,988 --> 00:14:07,708 Speaker 6: He is a playmaker and he's ready to lead this defense. 296 00:14:07,828 --> 00:14:09,948 Speaker 6: I think he's better than Bobby Okaerke. 297 00:14:09,828 --> 00:14:10,908 Speaker 2: And he they replace him. 298 00:14:11,468 --> 00:14:13,948 Speaker 6: I think this is great Isaiah Likely as well. I 299 00:14:13,988 --> 00:14:15,868 Speaker 6: don't know how the Ravens let this guy out of 300 00:14:15,868 --> 00:14:18,468 Speaker 6: their building. Hayma, Mark Andrews was crushing it. He'll have 301 00:14:18,508 --> 00:14:20,828 Speaker 6: the opportunity to be a true tight end number one 302 00:14:21,028 --> 00:14:25,628 Speaker 6: with a nice, surging young player in THEO. Johnson, I love, love, 303 00:14:25,708 --> 00:14:28,068 Speaker 6: love what the Giants are doing right now, and John Harbaugh, 304 00:14:28,148 --> 00:14:29,348 Speaker 6: let's get it well. 305 00:14:29,388 --> 00:14:31,948 Speaker 7: I would say I love I'm not gonna say I 306 00:14:31,988 --> 00:14:35,948 Speaker 7: love it. I like it, but I am encouraged. I'm 307 00:14:36,028 --> 00:14:40,388 Speaker 7: encouraged by the fact that you see that Isaiah Likely 308 00:14:40,428 --> 00:14:45,748 Speaker 7: getting added in really helps Jackson Dart really his development. 309 00:14:45,748 --> 00:14:48,948 Speaker 7: You're adding another playmaker into the Knicks for a young quarterback. 310 00:14:48,988 --> 00:14:50,668 Speaker 2: You cannot have enough of those. 311 00:14:50,908 --> 00:14:54,868 Speaker 7: And then resigning a luminor you cannot help your quarterback 312 00:14:54,908 --> 00:14:57,628 Speaker 7: if he's getting sacked at every place. So you know, 313 00:14:57,908 --> 00:14:59,908 Speaker 7: going in there and investing in that old line is 314 00:14:59,948 --> 00:15:02,588 Speaker 7: the most important part when you have a young quarterback. 315 00:15:02,828 --> 00:15:05,788 Speaker 7: And then one of my favorite linebackers in the league 316 00:15:05,908 --> 00:15:09,468 Speaker 7: right now has been Tremaine Edwards Edmunds because of what 317 00:15:09,708 --> 00:15:11,868 Speaker 7: he has done in the league, and every time that 318 00:15:11,908 --> 00:15:14,468 Speaker 7: we've played him when I was in Cleveland, he's had 319 00:15:14,508 --> 00:15:15,268 Speaker 7: a hell of a game. 320 00:15:15,708 --> 00:15:16,508 Speaker 2: He almost to. 321 00:15:16,508 --> 00:15:18,188 Speaker 7: Pick six the last time we played him a couple 322 00:15:18,188 --> 00:15:20,188 Speaker 7: of years ago, and I just think he's a true 323 00:15:20,308 --> 00:15:23,028 Speaker 7: difference maker that on that defense. 324 00:15:23,068 --> 00:15:25,188 Speaker 2: The issue is, though they can't stop now. 325 00:15:25,588 --> 00:15:27,668 Speaker 7: They have a couple more pieces they need to add, 326 00:15:27,868 --> 00:15:30,268 Speaker 7: and they need to and they need it soon. So 327 00:15:30,308 --> 00:15:33,828 Speaker 7: I'm encouraged by what they have going on, but they 328 00:15:33,828 --> 00:15:34,628 Speaker 7: can't stop now. 329 00:15:34,948 --> 00:15:40,388 Speaker 3: There is a dastardly internet conspiracy theory that John Harbaugh, 330 00:15:40,428 --> 00:15:44,908 Speaker 3: as Ravens head coach somehow masterminded the big contract extension 331 00:15:44,988 --> 00:15:49,028 Speaker 3: for Mark Andrews so then he could get Isaiah Likely 332 00:15:49,108 --> 00:15:51,428 Speaker 3: out of Baltimore. I don't know if it really stands 333 00:15:51,508 --> 00:15:54,668 Speaker 3: up to a timeline or a credibility issue, but it 334 00:15:54,708 --> 00:15:56,428 Speaker 3: is kind of funny to think about. And I'll say, 335 00:15:56,468 --> 00:15:58,668 Speaker 3: here's my word. We don't say this is a ton 336 00:15:58,708 --> 00:16:00,468 Speaker 3: about the New York Giants for the last decade, but 337 00:16:00,628 --> 00:16:02,188 Speaker 3: I think when I see these moves and I see 338 00:16:02,188 --> 00:16:04,668 Speaker 3: that coach, I think they matter. They all so it 339 00:16:04,708 --> 00:16:07,908 Speaker 3: brought in a lot of raw matter in the scientific sense. 340 00:16:08,148 --> 00:16:10,348 Speaker 3: But when do we talk about the New York Giants 341 00:16:10,428 --> 00:16:11,708 Speaker 3: is like, I don't know, this could be a team 342 00:16:11,708 --> 00:16:14,948 Speaker 3: that really moves the needle very rarely, very rarely over 343 00:16:14,988 --> 00:16:16,828 Speaker 3: the last decade. Last year, they were a lot of 344 00:16:16,828 --> 00:16:18,548 Speaker 3: fun at the beginning of the season with Jackson Dart 345 00:16:18,548 --> 00:16:20,908 Speaker 3: and Skyted Win all that, But then that changed everything. 346 00:16:21,388 --> 00:16:23,828 Speaker 3: And then John Harbud did what John Harbud's done for years. 347 00:16:23,868 --> 00:16:28,068 Speaker 3: He comes in and makes solid, sensible moves that are 348 00:16:28,108 --> 00:16:32,228 Speaker 3: not these massive splashes. They're just good. And you know 349 00:16:32,308 --> 00:16:33,708 Speaker 3: that the players are going to be good. You know 350 00:16:33,908 --> 00:16:35,428 Speaker 3: Edmonds is going to be good. You know Likely is 351 00:16:35,468 --> 00:16:38,228 Speaker 3: going to be good. And I like seeing the smiles 352 00:16:38,308 --> 00:16:40,308 Speaker 3: up there. It feels like the New York Giants, albeit 353 00:16:40,428 --> 00:16:43,348 Speaker 3: in March, feels like they matter. How about the defending 354 00:16:43,628 --> 00:16:48,308 Speaker 3: NFC North champions. How about the Chicago Bears? How about 355 00:16:48,348 --> 00:16:50,948 Speaker 3: the Chicago Bears? Shd some things yesterday? Do we have 356 00:16:51,028 --> 00:16:54,188 Speaker 3: what the Bears have? Thank you, Garrett Bradberry. They got 357 00:16:54,228 --> 00:16:56,348 Speaker 3: a center. They're still work because they're center retired twenty 358 00:16:56,348 --> 00:16:59,148 Speaker 3: seconds later. They gotten from the Patriots. The biggest one 359 00:16:59,228 --> 00:17:01,188 Speaker 3: was Kobe Bryant, who we just saw winning the Super 360 00:17:01,228 --> 00:17:05,068 Speaker 3: Bowl three year forty million dollars deal. Devin Bush replaces 361 00:17:05,188 --> 00:17:08,508 Speaker 3: Edmunds Neville Gallimore. I saw someone online saying we're signed 362 00:17:08,508 --> 00:17:11,068 Speaker 3: Harry Potter characters very different from the long Bottom family. 363 00:17:11,188 --> 00:17:13,988 Speaker 3: Enough of that. And then DeMarco Jackson, another linebacker who 364 00:17:14,028 --> 00:17:16,468 Speaker 3: was good in spots last year filling in looks like 365 00:17:16,508 --> 00:17:18,228 Speaker 3: he had a lot of potential. And Ryan Poles and 366 00:17:18,268 --> 00:17:22,028 Speaker 3: Ben Johnson agrees. So, guys, here we go. One word 367 00:17:22,228 --> 00:17:25,588 Speaker 3: to describe how you feel about the Bears, the pride 368 00:17:25,588 --> 00:17:27,748 Speaker 3: and joy of Illinois, not Indiana. How do you feel 369 00:17:27,748 --> 00:17:28,668 Speaker 3: about the Bears right now? 370 00:17:29,068 --> 00:17:31,908 Speaker 2: Scary? Scary, but in a great way. Look. 371 00:17:32,348 --> 00:17:34,308 Speaker 6: I talked about the Bears last year. I told you 372 00:17:34,308 --> 00:17:35,748 Speaker 6: guys that they were going to be a dark horse. 373 00:17:35,788 --> 00:17:39,828 Speaker 6: They absolutely were go to the playoffs. Ben Johnson, Caleb Williams. 374 00:17:39,948 --> 00:17:41,388 Speaker 6: I said it was going to be a slow start, 375 00:17:41,428 --> 00:17:44,508 Speaker 6: and it was not necessarily a slow start. I talked 376 00:17:44,548 --> 00:17:48,028 Speaker 6: about the jump that Jared Goff made with Ben Johnson 377 00:17:48,348 --> 00:17:51,028 Speaker 6: in that year two in that offense, and the way 378 00:17:51,308 --> 00:17:55,668 Speaker 6: his Ben Johnson's offense progresses year after year. I think 379 00:17:55,708 --> 00:17:57,668 Speaker 6: if Caleb was able to do that in year one, 380 00:17:57,988 --> 00:17:59,188 Speaker 6: what exactly does year. 381 00:17:59,068 --> 00:17:59,628 Speaker 3: Two look like? 382 00:17:59,908 --> 00:18:02,468 Speaker 6: You got DeAndre Swift. You got Kyle Mnungui who's on 383 00:18:02,548 --> 00:18:06,708 Speaker 6: angry ones a few times, drama, Luther Burden, the receivers, 384 00:18:06,828 --> 00:18:09,388 Speaker 6: young guys built around Kayleb Williams who are all going 385 00:18:09,468 --> 00:18:12,468 Speaker 6: to be growing together. You're able to replace the immediate 386 00:18:12,508 --> 00:18:15,268 Speaker 6: needs and Jakwan Brisker leaving. You go and you get 387 00:18:15,348 --> 00:18:20,068 Speaker 6: Kobe Bryant, Devin Bush replacing Tremaine Edmonds. This team is 388 00:18:20,308 --> 00:18:23,228 Speaker 6: poised to take over the NFC North right now, and 389 00:18:23,348 --> 00:18:27,068 Speaker 6: it is looking very scary for the Vikings, for the Packers, 390 00:18:27,228 --> 00:18:29,628 Speaker 6: and unfortunately for my Detroit Lions. 391 00:18:31,188 --> 00:18:35,348 Speaker 7: See my thoughts of the Chicago Bears are that they 392 00:18:35,388 --> 00:18:39,668 Speaker 7: are an ascending team. I love what I'm seeing from 393 00:18:39,708 --> 00:18:42,308 Speaker 7: the Bears right now in free agency. They are cool 394 00:18:42,668 --> 00:18:45,028 Speaker 7: going in to the defensive side of the ball, getting 395 00:18:45,228 --> 00:18:48,948 Speaker 7: pieces that they need. Their defense was a problem last year. 396 00:18:49,268 --> 00:18:51,988 Speaker 7: They ranked twenty ninth in total yards allowed. 397 00:18:51,788 --> 00:18:53,948 Speaker 2: And they had they were the six worst. 398 00:18:53,668 --> 00:18:56,708 Speaker 7: Defense in the NFL and rushing yards allowed. So going 399 00:18:56,708 --> 00:18:59,948 Speaker 7: to get Guillamore Gallamore and then also at the same time, 400 00:19:00,468 --> 00:19:03,628 Speaker 7: going and go to get Devin Bush and Kobe Bryant, 401 00:19:03,668 --> 00:19:08,548 Speaker 7: who I think are two ascending players right now, especially 402 00:19:08,588 --> 00:19:10,708 Speaker 7: with the way they played last year, I'm excited for 403 00:19:10,748 --> 00:19:12,508 Speaker 7: what they really are going to be. 404 00:19:12,508 --> 00:19:13,108 Speaker 2: Able to do. 405 00:19:13,508 --> 00:19:17,468 Speaker 7: And I just believe that when you attack the issues 406 00:19:17,468 --> 00:19:20,468 Speaker 7: and the deficiencies of your team, you're going to see 407 00:19:20,668 --> 00:19:22,748 Speaker 7: the way that it works for. 408 00:19:22,748 --> 00:19:23,428 Speaker 2: The next year. 409 00:19:23,668 --> 00:19:25,868 Speaker 7: And then they went and they have to replace Drew Dolman, 410 00:19:25,908 --> 00:19:28,508 Speaker 7: who retired out of nowhere really after they get they 411 00:19:28,508 --> 00:19:30,588 Speaker 7: made him one of the highest paid centers in the league. 412 00:19:30,708 --> 00:19:32,788 Speaker 7: And so I believe bringing in Garret Bradberry is this 413 00:19:33,268 --> 00:19:35,908 Speaker 7: another step in that. But I definitely believe the Bears 414 00:19:35,948 --> 00:19:38,708 Speaker 7: are ascending and the rest of the NNC North should 415 00:19:38,828 --> 00:19:40,988 Speaker 7: is definitely put on notice from here on out. 416 00:19:42,068 --> 00:19:44,828 Speaker 3: You're right about the defense Shelby numerically or statistically, rather, 417 00:19:44,908 --> 00:19:47,708 Speaker 3: it wasn't fantastic. They just had so many turnovers and takeaways. 418 00:19:47,708 --> 00:19:49,988 Speaker 3: They would get interceptions, they would get fumbles, and that's 419 00:19:49,988 --> 00:19:52,028 Speaker 3: how they were living. This is very simple for me. 420 00:19:52,508 --> 00:19:54,588 Speaker 3: For the Chicago Bears, it's just the word ast coach. 421 00:19:55,268 --> 00:19:57,708 Speaker 3: Anything Ben Johnson wants to do, I'm down with. Anything 422 00:19:57,748 --> 00:19:59,588 Speaker 3: he doesn't want to do, I'm not down with. It's 423 00:19:59,628 --> 00:20:01,548 Speaker 3: just it all defers to him, and of course credit 424 00:20:01,628 --> 00:20:03,828 Speaker 3: to Ryan Poles as well. The GM. But since this 425 00:20:03,868 --> 00:20:06,748 Speaker 3: guy has shown up, it is a different team, is 426 00:20:06,748 --> 00:20:08,908 Speaker 3: a different French I think it's a different city. So 427 00:20:08,988 --> 00:20:12,228 Speaker 3: if Ben Johnson came out yesterday and the Bears, if 428 00:20:12,228 --> 00:20:15,788 Speaker 3: they signed Mike Evans, if they spend two hundred million 429 00:20:15,828 --> 00:20:18,388 Speaker 3: dollars on Max Crosby, fine, I don't care any They 430 00:20:18,388 --> 00:20:21,628 Speaker 3: could do anything they want, and I am standing up 431 00:20:21,668 --> 00:20:24,748 Speaker 3: and saluting Ben Johnson. He has my proxy, he has 432 00:20:24,788 --> 00:20:27,228 Speaker 3: my support. Anything he wants to do, I'm in. And 433 00:20:27,268 --> 00:20:29,148 Speaker 3: if he wants to do some really cool, solid things 434 00:20:29,148 --> 00:20:31,668 Speaker 3: to make the team better, like he and Poulted yesterday, fine, 435 00:20:31,908 --> 00:20:34,988 Speaker 3: But he could have done something completely nonsensical and asd 436 00:20:35,068 --> 00:20:36,988 Speaker 3: I'm guess what I'd be sitting here this morning saying 437 00:20:37,028 --> 00:20:38,748 Speaker 3: I don't care. Ben Johnson likes it, and so do I. 438 00:20:38,948 --> 00:20:41,708 Speaker 3: Here we go, let's talk about what's sucking on another one, 439 00:20:41,748 --> 00:20:42,868 Speaker 3: because we got a few more of these. Thse are 440 00:20:42,868 --> 00:20:46,228 Speaker 3: always fun. What is the word to describe how you 441 00:20:46,388 --> 00:20:52,068 Speaker 3: feel right now? Kansas City Chiefs, Cabinda, Because we got 442 00:20:52,068 --> 00:20:56,228 Speaker 3: the running back, you got the pop culture sensation and 443 00:20:56,308 --> 00:20:58,508 Speaker 3: podcaster who is one of the best tight ends ever played, 444 00:20:58,668 --> 00:21:02,668 Speaker 3: Taekwan Thornton is stand ALOHI Gilman curious tunga three year, 445 00:21:02,788 --> 00:21:06,308 Speaker 3: twenty one million. There's that's the new Chiefs. There's gonna 446 00:21:06,308 --> 00:21:08,508 Speaker 3: be others to come in the draft and otherwise, but 447 00:21:09,028 --> 00:21:12,228 Speaker 3: right now, never mind's the draft. It's March tenth. How 448 00:21:12,228 --> 00:21:13,268 Speaker 3: do you feel about the Chiefs. 449 00:21:14,828 --> 00:21:17,388 Speaker 6: It's unfortunate. But look, this is what I got for you. 450 00:21:19,228 --> 00:21:23,468 Speaker 6: I just don't know if it's enough. Look we know 451 00:21:23,548 --> 00:21:26,148 Speaker 6: Patrick Mahomes is Patrick Mahomes. He's gonna do what he does. 452 00:21:26,308 --> 00:21:28,508 Speaker 6: He's coming off a devastating leg injury. We got to 453 00:21:28,508 --> 00:21:31,108 Speaker 6: see what he's going to look like, right But when 454 00:21:31,108 --> 00:21:32,948 Speaker 6: you look at the wide receiver situation, you look at 455 00:21:32,988 --> 00:21:35,548 Speaker 6: Rashie Rice and the off field issues, they don't even 456 00:21:35,788 --> 00:21:37,868 Speaker 6: know one hundred percent. None of us know if they're 457 00:21:37,908 --> 00:21:40,548 Speaker 6: gonna even have him this year. I like the Taekwan 458 00:21:40,628 --> 00:21:44,428 Speaker 6: Thornton signing. Travis Kelce. He's aging, he doesn't have it 459 00:21:44,508 --> 00:21:46,468 Speaker 6: how he used to. He's not a man killer anymore. 460 00:21:46,508 --> 00:21:49,308 Speaker 6: He's kind of solely a zone killer right now. Love 461 00:21:49,348 --> 00:21:52,868 Speaker 6: the Kenneth Walker trade, I absolutely love it. I think 462 00:21:52,988 --> 00:21:55,028 Speaker 6: they need to lean on the run game right now, 463 00:21:55,308 --> 00:21:57,948 Speaker 6: but I just don't think they have enough. I don't 464 00:21:57,988 --> 00:22:00,788 Speaker 6: feel the same Jews. It's feeling the knee like the 465 00:22:00,908 --> 00:22:04,348 Speaker 6: dynasty is over and they can't just continue to lean 466 00:22:04,788 --> 00:22:08,468 Speaker 6: on the Patrick Mahomes magic a year after year after year. 467 00:22:10,468 --> 00:22:16,948 Speaker 7: I'm nervous about this Chiefs team. Patrick Mahomes has been 468 00:22:16,988 --> 00:22:21,268 Speaker 7: sacked seventy times combined over the last two years. That 469 00:22:21,468 --> 00:22:24,228 Speaker 7: right there is not a recipe for success. And that's 470 00:22:24,268 --> 00:22:28,188 Speaker 7: also exactly the reason why Patrick Mahomes is out right 471 00:22:28,228 --> 00:22:31,188 Speaker 7: now with an ACL injury. The Chiefs have spent a 472 00:22:31,228 --> 00:22:34,868 Speaker 7: considerable amount of draft capital on O lineman in the 473 00:22:34,988 --> 00:22:38,268 Speaker 7: last three years, and they really hasn't worked out for 474 00:22:38,308 --> 00:22:40,508 Speaker 7: them yet. And I don't know if necessary, if it's 475 00:22:40,548 --> 00:22:42,388 Speaker 7: time they try to reach out the free agency to 476 00:22:42,428 --> 00:22:45,468 Speaker 7: try to fix those olds. But my thought process behind 477 00:22:45,508 --> 00:22:48,868 Speaker 7: it is they got to do something because you can't 478 00:22:48,908 --> 00:22:54,308 Speaker 7: have your franchise slash all world quarterback getting hit thirty 479 00:22:54,348 --> 00:22:57,868 Speaker 7: five times, not just getting hit, getting sacked thirty five 480 00:22:58,028 --> 00:23:02,148 Speaker 7: times a year, and expect to be successful come playoff time. 481 00:23:02,228 --> 00:23:03,188 Speaker 7: It just doesn't make sense. 482 00:23:04,948 --> 00:23:10,148 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go this way, my word, undertaker, and not 483 00:23:10,268 --> 00:23:12,588 Speaker 3: that the Chiefs are dead. I'll try to do the 484 00:23:12,588 --> 00:23:14,108 Speaker 3: gift here. Let me see if I can on my 485 00:23:14,148 --> 00:23:18,428 Speaker 3: little shoebox studio. I think that's the I think that's 486 00:23:18,468 --> 00:23:20,828 Speaker 3: the Chiefs. And what do you do, Shelby and keep 487 00:23:20,828 --> 00:23:22,348 Speaker 3: your quarterback? I'm gonna hit that many times. 488 00:23:22,668 --> 00:23:22,988 Speaker 6: I don't know. 489 00:23:23,028 --> 00:23:25,588 Speaker 3: You give Kenneth Walker the third three hundred and twenty carries. 490 00:23:26,188 --> 00:23:28,748 Speaker 3: That guy's gonna touch the ball. He is going to 491 00:23:28,788 --> 00:23:30,388 Speaker 3: catch the ball. He's gonna be handed the ball. It's 492 00:23:30,388 --> 00:23:32,188 Speaker 3: gonna be all over the place. And I feel like 493 00:23:32,188 --> 00:23:35,428 Speaker 3: the Chiefs know this. We got offensive problems right last year. 494 00:23:35,788 --> 00:23:37,388 Speaker 3: This is going to be a different year we've ever had. 495 00:23:37,428 --> 00:23:39,668 Speaker 3: We've never had Patrick coming off this kind of injury. 496 00:23:39,908 --> 00:23:41,908 Speaker 3: He may need a bounce back here, he may need 497 00:23:41,948 --> 00:23:44,948 Speaker 3: a few couple of months. What do we do. Let's 498 00:23:44,948 --> 00:23:46,588 Speaker 3: get together. Let's spend a whole bunch of money on 499 00:23:46,628 --> 00:23:48,508 Speaker 3: the best running back on the free agent market. Who's 500 00:23:48,508 --> 00:23:50,268 Speaker 3: the guy at Walker? Go get him, Go get him, 501 00:23:50,308 --> 00:23:52,948 Speaker 3: whatever it takes. He's still young, he's a champ. Go 502 00:23:53,028 --> 00:23:56,828 Speaker 3: get him and let ride this guy. Let's try something different. 503 00:23:57,068 --> 00:23:59,308 Speaker 3: By the way, Eric enemy back in the building, back 504 00:23:59,308 --> 00:24:01,868 Speaker 3: in the sideline, you think his head put together with 505 00:24:01,948 --> 00:24:04,148 Speaker 3: Kenneth Walker is not going to move the chains. It 506 00:24:04,188 --> 00:24:06,628 Speaker 3: is Chiefs. I don't know if they're Super Bowl teams. 507 00:24:06,628 --> 00:24:08,628 Speaker 3: We'll see what they do in the draft. But they 508 00:24:08,668 --> 00:24:10,788 Speaker 3: always matter. And I think that in a year when 509 00:24:10,828 --> 00:24:12,708 Speaker 3: a lot of people are gonna want and predict them 510 00:24:12,708 --> 00:24:15,108 Speaker 3: to stay down, and I get it. I said it 511 00:24:15,108 --> 00:24:17,708 Speaker 3: would be the undertaker sitting up. Here's another one. This 512 00:24:17,868 --> 00:24:21,868 Speaker 3: is the team that really has been tormented by the 513 00:24:21,948 --> 00:24:24,788 Speaker 3: Chiefs for the most part over the last decade. Let's 514 00:24:24,788 --> 00:24:27,348 Speaker 3: stay in the AFCU West. Not the Chargers, No, not 515 00:24:27,428 --> 00:24:31,268 Speaker 3: the Broncos. How about the Vegas. Let's look at the 516 00:24:31,468 --> 00:24:35,268 Speaker 3: Las Vegas Raiders. All kinds of different names up there. 517 00:24:35,588 --> 00:24:37,228 Speaker 3: Some of them you know, some of you don't know. 518 00:24:37,308 --> 00:24:41,108 Speaker 3: Most of them you know Tyler Linderbaum, absolutely incredible, three year, 519 00:24:41,188 --> 00:24:44,628 Speaker 3: eighty one million, massive deal, Center, Taren Johnson all the 520 00:24:44,628 --> 00:24:46,108 Speaker 3: way at the bottom, you know him. If you follow 521 00:24:46,148 --> 00:24:47,548 Speaker 3: the Bills May it's the East and all kinds of 522 00:24:47,548 --> 00:24:49,188 Speaker 3: players in between. But what's most of the matter is 523 00:24:49,268 --> 00:24:51,428 Speaker 3: one point right now is not the names. It is 524 00:24:51,468 --> 00:24:54,068 Speaker 3: the word on the whiteboard. One word to describe how 525 00:24:54,068 --> 00:24:59,148 Speaker 3: you feel about the last Vegas Raiders right now, March tenth. 526 00:24:59,548 --> 00:25:01,508 Speaker 2: Look, this is what I got for the Raiders. I 527 00:25:01,668 --> 00:25:06,388 Speaker 2: still see holes on this this team. I like the moves. 528 00:25:06,388 --> 00:25:09,148 Speaker 6: I can't lie they're trying, but I still see too 529 00:25:09,148 --> 00:25:10,348 Speaker 6: many holes you've. 530 00:25:10,228 --> 00:25:12,308 Speaker 2: Got Ashton JENTI are you kidding me? 531 00:25:12,508 --> 00:25:14,148 Speaker 6: We all saw this guy in college and what he 532 00:25:14,188 --> 00:25:16,388 Speaker 6: did at Boise State, and we thought it was it 533 00:25:16,428 --> 00:25:18,348 Speaker 6: was a rite in for Offensive Rookie of the Year. 534 00:25:18,468 --> 00:25:20,748 Speaker 6: The way he was running that football, and the guy's 535 00:25:20,748 --> 00:25:22,868 Speaker 6: making three people missed in the back field just to 536 00:25:22,868 --> 00:25:24,228 Speaker 6: get negative one yards. 537 00:25:24,628 --> 00:25:25,708 Speaker 2: What can we do to. 538 00:25:25,748 --> 00:25:28,388 Speaker 6: Get this guy going? Because at the end of the day, 539 00:25:28,388 --> 00:25:30,668 Speaker 6: most likely you are gonna get a rookie quarterback coming in, 540 00:25:30,708 --> 00:25:33,308 Speaker 6: most likely Fernando Mendoza. And if you think that you're 541 00:25:33,308 --> 00:25:36,468 Speaker 6: gonna just insert Banana Mendoza into this picture and everything's 542 00:25:36,508 --> 00:25:39,908 Speaker 6: gonna be all good, you are completely completely wrong. He's 543 00:25:39,908 --> 00:25:42,748 Speaker 6: gonna go through his struggles, he's gonna have his learning curve. 544 00:25:42,948 --> 00:25:44,548 Speaker 6: He's a great guy. I think he's a great fit 545 00:25:44,588 --> 00:25:48,268 Speaker 6: for the organization. But I just do not believe this 546 00:25:48,308 --> 00:25:50,988 Speaker 6: team is ready ready to take that next step. 547 00:25:51,108 --> 00:25:52,788 Speaker 2: I like the moves, love. 548 00:25:52,668 --> 00:25:57,388 Speaker 6: Kwaig Walker and Nikobe Dean as well. I love it, 549 00:25:57,508 --> 00:26:00,228 Speaker 6: but there's just too many holes that it's not the 550 00:26:00,388 --> 00:26:01,428 Speaker 6: equations is not fixed. 551 00:26:01,508 --> 00:26:02,468 Speaker 2: Yet need more. 552 00:26:03,548 --> 00:26:06,788 Speaker 7: I'm very interested right now and the moves that the 553 00:26:06,908 --> 00:26:10,788 Speaker 7: Raiders are making so they have me. I'm very It's 554 00:26:10,868 --> 00:26:13,588 Speaker 7: very intriguing watching what the Raiders are doing right now. 555 00:26:14,108 --> 00:26:18,028 Speaker 7: You know, right they have they're changing the tide right 556 00:26:18,108 --> 00:26:21,108 Speaker 7: now in Vegas. Even though they shipped out Max Crosby, 557 00:26:22,028 --> 00:26:24,268 Speaker 7: no penny has been spared in free agency, which is 558 00:26:24,388 --> 00:26:29,148 Speaker 7: rare for the Las Vegas Raiders. They're bringing in talent 559 00:26:29,268 --> 00:26:33,028 Speaker 7: from all over and right now they're following really the 560 00:26:33,068 --> 00:26:36,388 Speaker 7: Patriots way right now. The Patriots went in all in 561 00:26:36,468 --> 00:26:40,068 Speaker 7: last year free agency, and we saw how it really 562 00:26:40,668 --> 00:26:42,988 Speaker 7: made them go from worse the first They ended up 563 00:26:43,028 --> 00:26:45,388 Speaker 7: going to the Super Bowl because of that. And now 564 00:26:45,388 --> 00:26:47,108 Speaker 7: you've seeing a lot of these other teams that did 565 00:26:47,188 --> 00:26:49,668 Speaker 7: not have the success that they wanted to last year 566 00:26:49,988 --> 00:26:52,228 Speaker 7: go all in on free agency and they spread the 567 00:26:52,308 --> 00:26:54,748 Speaker 7: money around and bring in all these pieces. Now, the 568 00:26:54,828 --> 00:26:57,548 Speaker 7: Raiders do have a lot more holes, as they're going 569 00:26:57,588 --> 00:26:59,148 Speaker 7: to say, they have a lot more holes they got 570 00:26:59,148 --> 00:26:59,468 Speaker 7: to fill. 571 00:26:59,988 --> 00:27:01,668 Speaker 2: But it's very intriguing right now. 572 00:27:01,908 --> 00:27:04,868 Speaker 7: Their their thought process and going all in and bringing 573 00:27:04,908 --> 00:27:07,108 Speaker 7: all these guys in, and they must have a belief 574 00:27:07,108 --> 00:27:10,948 Speaker 7: in something because they're spending big money to get some 575 00:27:10,988 --> 00:27:12,668 Speaker 7: of the top free agents in his cycle. 576 00:27:12,948 --> 00:27:15,748 Speaker 3: Well, Las Vegas out in the desert. I have another 577 00:27:15,868 --> 00:27:19,588 Speaker 3: desert word. I look at the raiders right now. It's Coachella. 578 00:27:19,828 --> 00:27:22,948 Speaker 3: Just there's so many names. There's just this massive thing 579 00:27:23,028 --> 00:27:25,468 Speaker 3: with this name and that name, and you know it's 580 00:27:25,628 --> 00:27:27,348 Speaker 3: the headliner, is supposed to be You're going to see 581 00:27:27,388 --> 00:27:29,668 Speaker 3: Max Crosby on the main stage, but then he left 582 00:27:29,708 --> 00:27:32,508 Speaker 3: to go to some other festival. And what's really drawing 583 00:27:32,588 --> 00:27:35,108 Speaker 3: you there Coachella. It's not the dance tent, it's not 584 00:27:35,148 --> 00:27:37,628 Speaker 3: the twelfth stage over to the side and some guy 585 00:27:37,628 --> 00:27:39,828 Speaker 3: that they sign in free agency. Who's the fifth name listed. 586 00:27:40,348 --> 00:27:43,908 Speaker 3: It's the headliner and the big font it's Mendoza. I 587 00:27:43,948 --> 00:27:45,908 Speaker 3: don't know if he can play or not. I don't 588 00:27:45,948 --> 00:27:47,748 Speaker 3: know if he rocks. I don't know if it's worth 589 00:27:47,868 --> 00:27:50,428 Speaker 3: standing there for twelve hours to wait for him to 590 00:27:50,428 --> 00:27:53,748 Speaker 3: get on the stage. Also, Coachella, I don't know. If 591 00:27:53,748 --> 00:27:57,148 Speaker 3: you guys see the first five letters, it's coach. We 592 00:27:57,268 --> 00:27:59,388 Speaker 3: got a guy running this festival who has a lot 593 00:27:59,428 --> 00:28:02,028 Speaker 3: of promise, has run smaller festivals but has never been 594 00:28:02,068 --> 00:28:04,308 Speaker 3: a head coach on any level. And he's run the 595 00:28:04,468 --> 00:28:06,428 Speaker 3: big festival now with the rookie quarterback and with the 596 00:28:06,428 --> 00:28:08,028 Speaker 3: best player and the team and the best band in 597 00:28:08,068 --> 00:28:11,188 Speaker 3: the festival gone over to something they're having in Baltimore 598 00:28:11,188 --> 00:28:13,788 Speaker 3: on the other side of the country. So it's fun. 599 00:28:14,228 --> 00:28:17,468 Speaker 3: It's a lot of sizzle, and it's a lot of names, 600 00:28:17,508 --> 00:28:20,188 Speaker 3: but there's some key components missing or kind of in 601 00:28:20,228 --> 00:28:23,668 Speaker 3: the TBD territory where who is in the biggest possible 602 00:28:23,748 --> 00:28:25,748 Speaker 3: font at the top, and then who is the guy 603 00:28:25,828 --> 00:28:27,868 Speaker 3: running the entire thing? Do you want to go to 604 00:28:27,908 --> 00:28:30,788 Speaker 3: this concert? It's expensive, you gotta drive out there, you 605 00:28:30,788 --> 00:28:32,948 Speaker 3: gotta bring water. They're gonna patch you down, all that 606 00:28:32,948 --> 00:28:35,028 Speaker 3: type of stuff. I've been there. I just don't know 607 00:28:35,028 --> 00:28:36,828 Speaker 3: if it's gonna be good yet. It just seems fun, 608 00:28:37,428 --> 00:28:39,268 Speaker 3: but it is good. I don't know. We'll find out. 609 00:28:39,628 --> 00:28:40,788 Speaker 3: That's more. That's what's the word. 610 00:28:40,788 --> 00:28:41,068 Speaker 2: That's it. 611 00:28:41,108 --> 00:28:42,388 Speaker 3: We did a lot of teams right there, guys. It 612 00:28:42,428 --> 00:28:45,148 Speaker 3: was a good exercise. Excellent job by you. Mortgid Morning 613 00:28:45,188 --> 00:28:48,788 Speaker 3: football right after this, my guys in La holding it down. 614 00:28:48,828 --> 00:28:52,108 Speaker 3: It is now six thirty four am California Times and 615 00:28:52,148 --> 00:28:54,668 Speaker 3: they are buzzing.

After this, all right, welcome BA 617 00:29:02,868 --> 00:29:04,668 Speaker 3: to give money football. We go right back to Ian, 618 00:29:04,708 --> 00:29:06,868 Speaker 3: who is our nerve center right now on the show 619 00:29:06,908 --> 00:29:09,748 Speaker 3: about everything happening. Ian, I've said this before. Of all 620 00:29:09,788 --> 00:29:11,268 Speaker 3: the names that you've covered up in the last couple 621 00:29:11,308 --> 00:29:13,428 Speaker 3: of years, Trey Hendrickson has to be at the top 622 00:29:13,508 --> 00:29:16,428 Speaker 3: of the CompuBox just in terms of his contract stuff 623 00:29:16,428 --> 00:29:20,188 Speaker 3: with Cincinnati, and yet we're still here with questions about him. 624 00:29:20,588 --> 00:29:23,028 Speaker 3: Post those questions for us or give answers anything you've got, 625 00:29:23,068 --> 00:29:24,628 Speaker 3: and then maybe some other people you're looking at today. 626 00:29:24,748 --> 00:29:26,948 Speaker 4: Yeah, why does Trey Hendrickson not have a deal yet? 627 00:29:26,948 --> 00:29:30,748 Speaker 4: To which I would say it is only day two now. 628 00:29:31,108 --> 00:29:33,628 Speaker 4: If a team had come out hot and heavy on 629 00:29:33,708 --> 00:29:36,388 Speaker 4: Tree Henderson, perhaps the sort of deal that let's say 630 00:29:36,428 --> 00:29:38,508 Speaker 4: Jalen Phillips got thirty million dollars per year from the 631 00:29:38,548 --> 00:29:41,668 Speaker 4: Carolina Panthers or a Dafeoa twenty five million dollars per 632 00:29:41,788 --> 00:29:44,108 Speaker 4: year from the Commanders, you know, perhaps that would be 633 00:29:44,148 --> 00:29:47,468 Speaker 4: something Trey Hendrickson would happen. They're not there yet, His 634 00:29:47,588 --> 00:29:50,068 Speaker 4: market isn't there yet. And that is okay because there's 635 00:29:50,108 --> 00:29:52,188 Speaker 4: still a lot of money to be spent. There's still 636 00:29:52,188 --> 00:29:54,628 Speaker 4: plenty of other days of free agency, and we are 637 00:29:54,628 --> 00:29:56,788 Speaker 4: not even close to being done. It just seems like 638 00:29:56,828 --> 00:30:00,708 Speaker 4: forever because we have been talking about Tree Hendrickson for 639 00:30:00,828 --> 00:30:03,268 Speaker 4: quite a while now. Among the edge teams who didn't 640 00:30:03,548 --> 00:30:06,468 Speaker 4: acquire a player yesterday's Buffalo, those would be one, and 641 00:30:06,548 --> 00:30:09,348 Speaker 4: they had interest in transitson at the deadline last year, 642 00:30:09,388 --> 00:30:12,028 Speaker 4: but there are several others teams still sifting around. 643 00:30:12,068 --> 00:30:14,748 Speaker 2: Forty nine ers would be another one as well. 644 00:30:14,948 --> 00:30:18,508 Speaker 4: There's still several teams interested in this position willing to 645 00:30:18,508 --> 00:30:21,348 Speaker 4: spend who didn't quite get the guys they wanted, so 646 00:30:21,428 --> 00:30:25,148 Speaker 4: I would say his market likely heats up today. Bradley 647 00:30:25,268 --> 00:30:28,068 Speaker 4: Chubb is another interesting one as well. 648 00:30:28,108 --> 00:30:29,188 Speaker 2: Now Bradley Chubb. 649 00:30:28,948 --> 00:30:31,188 Speaker 4: Has not to my now's officially been released by the 650 00:30:31,188 --> 00:30:33,108 Speaker 4: Miami Dolphins, so that is another name we're going to 651 00:30:33,148 --> 00:30:37,428 Speaker 4: be talking about, like Kyler Murray after Wednesday at four 652 00:30:37,468 --> 00:30:41,188 Speaker 4: PML for his release official. Juwan Jennings is another interesting 653 00:30:41,228 --> 00:30:44,588 Speaker 4: one from me. San Francisco forty nine ers signed an 654 00:30:44,588 --> 00:30:47,668 Speaker 4: early contracts extension. There has been frustrated with a deal 655 00:30:47,708 --> 00:30:50,388 Speaker 4: for some time, wanted more money. Should have been off 656 00:30:50,428 --> 00:30:53,228 Speaker 4: again on again for the San Francisco forty nine ers defense. 657 00:30:53,268 --> 00:30:56,668 Speaker 4: But when he's been on, he has been really really good. 658 00:30:56,988 --> 00:30:59,508 Speaker 4: Sort of would have thought that they would have wanted 659 00:30:59,508 --> 00:31:00,988 Speaker 4: to resign them, but all they did was Sidne, the 660 00:31:01,068 --> 00:31:03,748 Speaker 4: future Hall of Famer, and Mike Evans. So when your 661 00:31:03,828 --> 00:31:06,228 Speaker 4: own team doesn't make a run, etch or sometimes a 662 00:31:06,308 --> 00:31:10,348 Speaker 4: perture market. So Juwan, Jenny's still trying to find news quitting. 663 00:31:10,068 --> 00:31:13,748 Speaker 3: In the agency. Well, we'll talk about third in Juwan 664 00:31:13,788 --> 00:31:15,388 Speaker 3: in a minute. In the meantime, Ian I saw a 665 00:31:15,428 --> 00:31:19,988 Speaker 3: tweet yesterday where someone's tweeted something like the most surprising 666 00:31:20,108 --> 00:31:24,028 Speaker 3: news I've seen all day is that Adam Schefter, retweeted 667 00:31:24,068 --> 00:31:27,268 Speaker 3: Ian rappaport Ian. We are in this new synergy with 668 00:31:27,548 --> 00:31:30,188 Speaker 3: ESPN and Disney and NFL, and there it is right there, 669 00:31:30,308 --> 00:31:35,068 Speaker 3: You're Travis Kelsey tweet retweeted by Schefter. Is there this 670 00:31:35,108 --> 00:31:37,268 Speaker 3: new world right now? And what does it feel like 671 00:31:37,308 --> 00:31:39,868 Speaker 3: in the news breaking industry now that we are essentially 672 00:31:39,908 --> 00:31:41,348 Speaker 3: teammates with every one at ESPN. 673 00:31:41,708 --> 00:31:43,548 Speaker 4: I did get a text about that yesterday, a bunch 674 00:31:43,588 --> 00:31:45,828 Speaker 4: of texts about that froms from several people. Now I 675 00:31:45,828 --> 00:31:47,628 Speaker 4: would also say I did the same thing when he 676 00:31:48,428 --> 00:31:52,108 Speaker 4: scooped me on the Drew Dolman retirement, so sort of 677 00:31:52,108 --> 00:31:54,788 Speaker 4: a back and forth. I would say, credit to where 678 00:31:54,828 --> 00:31:56,708 Speaker 4: it's due is not a bad thing at all. And 679 00:31:56,788 --> 00:31:59,748 Speaker 4: you're right, it's a new world. We're all trying to navigate. 680 00:32:00,868 --> 00:32:03,668 Speaker 4: Everyone sort of has mutual respect for each other. We'll 681 00:32:03,708 --> 00:32:06,668 Speaker 4: see where it goes. But I didn't think that was 682 00:32:06,708 --> 00:32:08,068 Speaker 4: a bad thing yesterday. 683 00:32:07,988 --> 00:32:09,868 Speaker 3: Not at all. No, it's a great thing. I think 684 00:32:09,868 --> 00:32:12,468 Speaker 3: it's actually really fun for fans. I mean, Ian we're 685 00:32:12,508 --> 00:32:15,868 Speaker 3: on record as that it's the Avengers right getting together. 686 00:32:16,348 --> 00:32:19,068 Speaker 3: So this was like Captain America and Iron Man breaking 687 00:32:19,108 --> 00:32:21,348 Speaker 3: news about Travis Kelcey. To feel that way to you, there. 688 00:32:21,188 --> 00:32:23,828 Speaker 4: Are many of us, so it is not just too 689 00:32:23,908 --> 00:32:26,068 Speaker 4: But yes, I thought I thought that was a very 690 00:32:26,108 --> 00:32:28,588 Speaker 4: cool and respectful thing yesterday, No doubt about it. Just 691 00:32:28,628 --> 00:32:32,188 Speaker 4: like you know, you sort of hope that a lot 692 00:32:32,188 --> 00:32:33,868 Speaker 4: of other reporters would do that. You don't get that 693 00:32:33,948 --> 00:32:36,508 Speaker 4: a lot, but this is our world today, So I 694 00:32:36,508 --> 00:32:37,388 Speaker 4: thought it was a cool thing. 695 00:32:37,588 --> 00:32:40,188 Speaker 3: It is a cool thing. And then there's the aggregators, 696 00:32:40,228 --> 00:32:42,348 Speaker 3: and I know that there are still looked down upon, 697 00:32:42,468 --> 00:32:45,428 Speaker 3: but that's a different conversation. You want a different conversation. 698 00:32:46,148 --> 00:32:48,748 Speaker 3: Shelby Harris has been joining us this week and we 699 00:32:48,868 --> 00:32:50,828 Speaker 3: love having you. Hear you there in Los Angeles. I 700 00:32:50,828 --> 00:32:52,508 Speaker 3: don't know if you're paying attention to Shelby. I'm sure 701 00:32:52,548 --> 00:32:55,148 Speaker 3: you were, but Ian Rappaport just had news about the 702 00:32:55,188 --> 00:32:57,868 Speaker 3: forty nine ers looking to move on from Juwan Jennings. 703 00:32:58,148 --> 00:33:03,068 Speaker 3: Now you are on record that Juwan Jennings is a 704 00:33:03,148 --> 00:33:07,428 Speaker 3: quote hoe your thoughts on the state of the nation 705 00:33:07,588 --> 00:33:08,308 Speaker 3: for that receiver. 706 00:33:08,988 --> 00:33:10,388 Speaker 7: You know, I wish him the best. You know, I 707 00:33:10,428 --> 00:33:14,268 Speaker 7: don't wish wish bad on anyone. And even though we 708 00:33:14,348 --> 00:33:17,388 Speaker 7: had our quarrel like during the game, yes, I really 709 00:33:17,388 --> 00:33:20,028 Speaker 7: want him to catch on. There's enough money out there 710 00:33:20,068 --> 00:33:22,308 Speaker 7: for everybody. He has to go out there and provide 711 00:33:22,348 --> 00:33:24,228 Speaker 7: for his family. And at the end of the day, 712 00:33:24,228 --> 00:33:27,748 Speaker 7: we are in a fraternity, we're NFL brothers, and so 713 00:33:28,308 --> 00:33:30,708 Speaker 7: no matter what, even if we don't necessarily get along 714 00:33:30,748 --> 00:33:32,868 Speaker 7: on the field, I don't know him personally and I 715 00:33:32,868 --> 00:33:34,788 Speaker 7: would never wish bad on him, and so I really 716 00:33:34,868 --> 00:33:37,428 Speaker 7: do wish he catches on and he finds a team 717 00:33:37,508 --> 00:33:39,588 Speaker 7: that fits him in his personality. 718 00:33:39,908 --> 00:33:42,308 Speaker 3: You guys all have opinions about the other players, some 719 00:33:42,348 --> 00:33:44,868 Speaker 3: of them you share, you don't. Let's say next year, 720 00:33:44,908 --> 00:33:47,748 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six Cleveland Browns. You're there in the 721 00:33:47,748 --> 00:33:50,308 Speaker 3: locker room, you're under contract, you're playing for the Browns, 722 00:33:50,588 --> 00:33:52,628 Speaker 3: and they bring in Juwan James Walks in the locker room. 723 00:33:52,668 --> 00:33:54,908 Speaker 3: How do you greet that? Because that was a viral 724 00:33:55,028 --> 00:33:56,868 Speaker 3: rant you had about him, It was very personal, you 725 00:33:56,868 --> 00:33:59,388 Speaker 3: were very emotional. How do you greet that player? 726 00:33:59,588 --> 00:34:00,148 Speaker 2: Just what up? 727 00:34:02,348 --> 00:34:04,828 Speaker 7: The idea is? This is a you know, happens on 728 00:34:04,828 --> 00:34:06,668 Speaker 7: the field. You got to be able to get rid 729 00:34:06,708 --> 00:34:09,388 Speaker 7: of that and sweep it under the rug. So the 730 00:34:09,428 --> 00:34:12,108 Speaker 7: idea what you really have to do is squash it 731 00:34:12,108 --> 00:34:14,868 Speaker 7: and move on. You don't want it to be where 732 00:34:14,868 --> 00:34:17,028 Speaker 7: one person signs and then it cuts off the ability 733 00:34:17,068 --> 00:34:19,148 Speaker 7: for the other person to get signed there because the 734 00:34:19,188 --> 00:34:21,828 Speaker 7: beef isn't that big. It's not that serious at all. 735 00:34:22,188 --> 00:34:25,908 Speaker 6: And I will translate Shelby's politically correct answer, which is 736 00:34:25,948 --> 00:34:28,148 Speaker 6: that he cannot wait to find out which team Juwan 737 00:34:28,228 --> 00:34:30,268 Speaker 6: Jennings is playing for so that he can go head 738 00:34:30,348 --> 00:34:33,428 Speaker 6: hunting next year, and he supremely hopes that that team 739 00:34:33,748 --> 00:34:35,468 Speaker 6: is not the team that Shelby signs for. 740 00:34:37,748 --> 00:34:43,548 Speaker 7: I never said that, never said that commitment. 741 00:34:43,628 --> 00:34:45,348 Speaker 3: You're one of those guys who should have played in 742 00:34:45,348 --> 00:34:48,028 Speaker 3: like nineteen seventy one. I really mean it. I feel 743 00:34:48,068 --> 00:34:51,828 Speaker 3: like you would be all Pro in nineteen seventy one 744 00:34:51,868 --> 00:34:53,788 Speaker 3: when the game was much different than it is now. 745 00:34:53,868 --> 00:34:56,148 Speaker 3: But listen, Shelby, this is I feel like it's in 746 00:34:56,188 --> 00:34:58,308 Speaker 3: the weeds you and Juwan Jennings, and I think you're 747 00:34:58,308 --> 00:35:00,308 Speaker 3: being a total pro about it. He's a good player. 748 00:35:00,588 --> 00:35:03,388 Speaker 3: You want good players. Ultimately, Guys, do we have any 749 00:35:03,428 --> 00:35:05,628 Speaker 3: other questions when need answ in Cabinda other than the 750 00:35:05,628 --> 00:35:07,308 Speaker 3: one you already covered? Is there something you're like, what 751 00:35:07,348 --> 00:35:08,868 Speaker 3: the hell is the answer to this? What's going on here? 752 00:35:09,028 --> 00:35:12,028 Speaker 6: I just want to know where the LaMelo ball of 753 00:35:12,108 --> 00:35:15,228 Speaker 6: the league will be playing and taking snaps under center. 754 00:35:15,308 --> 00:35:17,668 Speaker 6: I want to see where Kyler Murray's gonna play. I 755 00:35:17,708 --> 00:35:19,388 Speaker 6: want to see where he's gonna play. I want to 756 00:35:19,428 --> 00:35:22,188 Speaker 6: see how that offense will evolve, what he's gonna be 757 00:35:22,188 --> 00:35:24,828 Speaker 6: able to do. I want to see if it's play 758 00:35:24,868 --> 00:35:29,068 Speaker 6: stylet is going to be able to translate into winning football, 759 00:35:29,148 --> 00:35:31,428 Speaker 6: which is we haven't seen that from Kyler Murray. 760 00:35:31,708 --> 00:35:34,668 Speaker 2: Can he play within the system. Can he translate it 761 00:35:34,828 --> 00:35:35,268 Speaker 2: down to. 762 00:35:35,268 --> 00:35:37,428 Speaker 6: Such a way that it can translate to winning football? 763 00:35:37,668 --> 00:35:39,788 Speaker 6: That's what I want to see where's Kyler Murray gonna 764 00:35:39,788 --> 00:35:40,428 Speaker 6: be playing next year? 765 00:35:41,148 --> 00:35:44,508 Speaker 7: My biggest question mark is where's Trey Henderson going to 766 00:35:44,548 --> 00:35:47,388 Speaker 7: be playing next year. I believe a guy that has 767 00:35:47,708 --> 00:35:50,948 Speaker 7: had sixty one sacks over the last five years to 768 00:35:51,148 --> 00:35:53,988 Speaker 7: be a priority to every team out there that needs 769 00:35:54,628 --> 00:35:56,388 Speaker 7: a pass rusher, especially. 770 00:35:56,068 --> 00:35:58,708 Speaker 2: A team a contendee team. 771 00:35:58,308 --> 00:36:00,388 Speaker 7: That is trying to get that hump, to get over 772 00:36:00,428 --> 00:36:02,468 Speaker 7: that hump to make it to the championship. And so 773 00:36:02,508 --> 00:36:05,428 Speaker 7: I believe a guy like Trey Henderson, a guy who's consistent, 774 00:36:06,068 --> 00:36:09,988 Speaker 7: a consistent edge, terror need to We need to figure 775 00:36:09,988 --> 00:36:11,668 Speaker 7: out where he's going to be at and what his 776 00:36:11,788 --> 00:36:14,668 Speaker 7: market is, because this guy is too good to not 777 00:36:14,708 --> 00:36:17,708 Speaker 7: be gone already, even though we actually technically haven't even 778 00:36:17,708 --> 00:36:18,748 Speaker 7: started free agency yet. 779 00:36:20,388 --> 00:36:23,228 Speaker 3: I hear you, listen, there's this sense I feel out 780 00:36:23,228 --> 00:36:25,148 Speaker 3: there where there was a bunch of teams who were 781 00:36:25,188 --> 00:36:27,708 Speaker 3: interested in Max Crosby, right and there. I heard it 782 00:36:27,708 --> 00:36:30,268 Speaker 3: was Rich Eison yesterday saying that the Bears had matched 783 00:36:30,268 --> 00:36:31,588 Speaker 3: the offer, they were going to have a couple of 784 00:36:31,588 --> 00:36:33,028 Speaker 3: first round picks, they were going to do it, but 785 00:36:33,068 --> 00:36:35,788 Speaker 3: then it was ultimately ended up being a little expensive. 786 00:36:35,788 --> 00:36:38,228 Speaker 3: If I have that right, point is people wanted Crosby, 787 00:36:38,308 --> 00:36:41,148 Speaker 3: you didn't get Crosby. Nless, you're Baltimore. Do you pivot 788 00:36:41,228 --> 00:36:44,548 Speaker 3: then to Trey Hendrickson. He's a little older, a little 789 00:36:44,588 --> 00:36:46,428 Speaker 3: more mileage on him, but he's still going to produce. 790 00:36:46,468 --> 00:36:47,708 Speaker 3: And if you're a team that wants to win a 791 00:36:47,748 --> 00:36:50,948 Speaker 3: Super Bowl this year, like the Bears, will somebody like that, 792 00:36:51,228 --> 00:36:53,788 Speaker 3: do you go for Hendrickson? I just look I like 793 00:36:53,828 --> 00:36:55,908 Speaker 3: Trey Hendrickson a lot. I like him as a player 794 00:36:55,948 --> 00:36:58,308 Speaker 3: and I've met him. I really like him as a person. 795 00:36:58,748 --> 00:37:00,668 Speaker 3: I'm happy for him that he's leading. And that's not 796 00:37:00,708 --> 00:37:02,628 Speaker 3: to disparage since NAT. It's just been a mess. It's 797 00:37:02,668 --> 00:37:05,548 Speaker 3: been a mess after a mess, after a mess, and 798 00:37:05,708 --> 00:37:08,228 Speaker 3: all you do is produce, and then you see that 799 00:37:08,308 --> 00:37:12,508 Speaker 3: the entire money vault gets spent on wide receivers and quarterbacks, 800 00:37:12,508 --> 00:37:14,148 Speaker 3: and you're like, what the hell do I have to do? 801 00:37:14,228 --> 00:37:16,108 Speaker 3: I let the NFL in sacks and you can't lock 802 00:37:16,148 --> 00:37:18,908 Speaker 3: me up. They can't. So I hope someone else does. 803 00:37:18,988 --> 00:37:20,988 Speaker 3: I hope Tran Hendrickson wins. I hope he gets paid 804 00:37:20,988 --> 00:37:22,988 Speaker 3: all that stuff because I'm a fan of his personally, 805 00:37:23,828 --> 00:37:25,468 Speaker 3: and I just hope it works out right. Because it 806 00:37:25,508 --> 00:37:28,268 Speaker 3: doesn't always work out right in the end. Coming up, 807 00:37:28,508 --> 00:37:29,908 Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys know this. There is 808 00:37:29,948 --> 00:37:32,748 Speaker 3: a new podcast coming out with Shelby Harris and Juan 809 00:37:32,828 --> 00:37:35,548 Speaker 3: Jennings and they're just sitting out, just hashing it out, 810 00:37:35,828 --> 00:37:38,628 Speaker 3: just talking ball, talking respect. When can we get the 811 00:37:38,628 --> 00:37:45,708 Speaker 3: new episode of the pod Shelby soon, coming soon wherever 812 00:37:45,788 --> 00:37:49,508 Speaker 3: you get your podcasts.
