We're else Scoff Ravens fullback pat ricarr 17 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 1: just re signing Baltimore. 18 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 2: He is going to join the show. 19 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 1: We got a lot of wide receiver news today, including 20 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: breaking news within the past hour, Cooper Cup has a 21 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: new home and he is staying in the NFC West 22 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: Cup agreeing to terms with the Seattle Seahawks on a 23 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: three year, forty five million dollar deal. Ian There were 24 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: a lot of rumors and reports about different teams being involved, 25 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: but it always sounded like Seattle wanted to bring Cup 26 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: homies from Yakima, Washington, went to eastern Washington. Now he 27 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: is headed back to Seattle. As you see right there 28 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: in that image that he posted. He indeed is headed 29 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: back to Washington. Doesn't actually stand it across the chest. 30 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: That'd be weird. They play in Seattle. Jackson Smith and 31 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: Jaba fired up about it as well, posting Coop to 32 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: be playing now opposite a different stylid wide receiver than 33 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: DK Metcalf and e. He has not been healthy the 34 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: past three seasons. He's thirty one years old. We still 35 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: see flashes of what Cooper Cup can do. How did 36 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: all this come together with Cooper Cup now a Seahawk. 37 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 3: Well, for Cooper Cup, the word home was an important one, right. 38 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 3: He did have a ton of suitors, a lot of suitors, 39 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 3: several teams interested. And it's not just because he was 40 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 3: a free agent this week starting on Wednesdays, because everyone 41 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 3: is known he was going to be free agent since 42 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 3: the Monday before Super Bowl. That's when Cooper Cup himself 43 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 3: tweeted that the Rams are going to try to trade him, 44 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 3: and once that became clear, they did actually have some 45 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 3: trade Injurws A couple of teams talk to the Rams. 46 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 3: But reality is most teams knew he was going to 47 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 3: be free so several teams were interested, from the New 48 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 3: Orleans Saints to the Denver Broncos, a little bit of 49 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 3: Jacksonville Jaguars, maybe the Patriots, maybe the forty nine. The 50 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 3: reality is Cooper Cup wanted to go home. He is 51 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: from Washington. You mentioned he's from Yakima, about two hours 52 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 3: from the Seattle facility. I figure that out on my 53 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 3: maps app. Cooper now gets to go home for a 54 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 3: remade offense in Seattle. He becomes now a key target 55 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 3: for Sam Donald and Mike Look, I mean the money 56 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 3: is real. He gets fifteen million dollars per year, three years, 57 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,679 Speaker 3: forty five million dollars. That's real. It does seem like 58 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 3: the Seahawks were if they were not the highest bidder, 59 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 3: they were right there. But the tugging at the Hartstrings, 60 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 3: being able to play in front of his family going 61 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 3: for a team you route four. This is a very 62 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 3: very cool thing for Cooper Cup. 63 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, a couple of things. The money came up from 64 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: the time that teams were discussing a potential trade for 65 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 2: Cooper Cup because you're gonna thin give about rastet compensation 66 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: and then pay him. It was like, well, something had 67 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 2: to give there, And this is why players want to 68 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 2: be free. Number one, you get to control things a 69 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 2: lot more if you're a free agent versus if you're 70 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 2: at the mercy of a team that's trading you. That's 71 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 2: number one and number two, if there's no draft pick 72 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 2: compensation alongside of it, you can get yourself a deal 73 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 2: like this. We said last night in the Insiders there's 74 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 2: a tier at twenty plus million dollars of receivers and 75 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 2: there was another one at about ten million. We said, 76 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 2: we expect him to be somewhere in the middle, and 77 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 2: this is exactly where he wound up being. He sent 78 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 2: me thirty two on Opening Day. This is a really 79 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: good deal for him, and it's because there was a 80 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 2: lot of interest in him out there. But the Seahawks 81 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: now made the push to make this happen. Look, I 82 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 2: know Cooper cup was let go by the Rams, but 83 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 2: a lot of people inside that building one of things 84 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 2: that go well for him once he became a free agent, 85 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: wanted him to get his number. He got it. He 86 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 2: got it to a place that he's comfortable. The only 87 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 2: problem is you're gonna have to see him two times 88 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 2: next year at the very least. 89 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:36,679 Speaker 4: There. 90 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: And I would say this for the Seahawks also, you know, 91 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 2: Gino Smith gets traded away, DK Metcalf gone, Tyler Locket gone, 92 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 2: Everybody going, well, the cupboard's bear well. Now all of 93 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 2: a sudden, you got yourself a quarterback in Sam Darnold. 94 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 2: You got him a reliable target here JSN obviously already there, 95 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 2: and you got a third round pick on top of that. 96 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 2: Thing's looking good for the Seahawks right now. 97 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,559 Speaker 1: And by the way, when the Seahawks pivot from Gino 98 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: Smith to Sam Darnold, not old only do they get 99 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: a third round pick from trading Gino Smith to Las Vegas, 100 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: they also, based on the type of contract Gino would 101 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: have wanted, actually freed up cash to make this type 102 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: of move and help out the quarterback. Let's also clean 103 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: up one other thing here. There were different things said 104 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 1: about the Cowboys are in it, they were not really 105 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: in it, that the Broncos were in it, they were 106 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: not really in it. Part of that was because it 107 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: was going to take a significant financial investment. That's what 108 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,919 Speaker 1: the Seahawks were willing to make in Cooper Cup, not 109 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: just the player, but the person, the leader that he 110 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: could bring to the locker room. And by the way, Ian, 111 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: I did not need a maps ap to knowing where 112 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: Yakima is. I played an American Legion Baseball tournament there 113 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety nine. 114 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 2: That's your fun fact for the edit. 115 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: That is not the only wide receiver news we had 116 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: in the past several hours. As Ian and I reported 117 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: a short time ago, the Bengals have made significant progress 118 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: on new contracts with both their star wide receivers Jamar 119 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: Chase and t Higgins. This has been ongoing for the 120 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: past couple of years. T Higgins now on a second franchise, Hey, 121 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: Javar Chase going into the fifty year option on his 122 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: rookie contract. They made runs Ian in the past that 123 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: both these players they have the same agent. These have 124 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: been basically it sounds like parallel negotiations and now penning 125 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: clean up some language and things. It does appear we 126 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: are on the verge of Joe Burrow getting his wish, 127 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: which is both of his favorite targets being in Cincinnati 128 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: for the long haul. 129 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 3: The Bengals are close to delivering Joe Burrow exactly what 130 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 3: it wants, which is his two star receivers under contract 131 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 3: for years to come and no more questions about why 132 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: is two receivers are not under contract. This would be 133 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 3: good for everyone. So let's take a look at where 134 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 3: they are. It has been several weeks, actually months of 135 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 3: negotiation between the Cincinnati Bengals front office and ownership and 136 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 3: the agents for t Higgins and Jamar Chase, who, as 137 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 3: you mentioned, are now the same person, Rocky Arsenal. Where 138 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 3: it looks like it's going to land and it's not 139 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 3: firm and final yet this deal is not completely and 140 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 3: totally agreed to yet still have to finalize some things. 141 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 3: Where it looks like it's the land is Jamar Chase 142 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 3: with a contract starting with a four, so that would 143 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: be forty million dollars plus per year, which would make 144 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 3: him the highest paid receiver in the NFL, which would 145 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 3: make him along with Miles garrettle depending on whether it's 146 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 3: higher than Miles Garrett or not, the highest paid non 147 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: quarterback in the NFL, which. 148 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 2: Is exactly what the Bengals said it would be. 149 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 3: And then for t Higgins joking at the high twenties, 150 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 3: twenty seven or twenty eight, maybe million dollars, that's around 151 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 3: where the franchise tag, around where the franchise tag is 152 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 3: based on the average. So both really really really strong 153 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 3: contracts for both these guys. When they get finished, people 154 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 3: wonder like, why aren't the Bengals paying. 155 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: They are paying now or at least they're going to 156 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: be pretty soon, And well, look, they could have done 157 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 2: this last year, could have done the year before. With 158 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 2: t Higgins, you waited, the price went up. Now it's 159 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 2: gonna cost you a ton of money. You saved money 160 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 2: last year, I guess. I mean that's the one way, 161 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 2: Like you didn't have to make the big payment that 162 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase last year. But now you're in a predicament 163 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 2: now where you're given sixty seven If I did the 164 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 2: meth writing and you said sixty seven sixty eight million 165 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 2: combined for two receivers. And that's why Trey Hendrickson is 166 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 2: now looking for a potential trade elsewhere that door has 167 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 2: not been slam shut. This is going to make it 168 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 2: more difficult, and obviously they saw which way that this 169 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 2: was going. So we'll see about getting Hendrickson back. But 170 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 2: the Bengals have done a lot on the offensive side 171 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 2: of the ball, still a lot of questions on that 172 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 2: defensive side of the ball, Trey Hendrickson and his future 173 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 2: being just one of them. We'll see. 174 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: This is a lot of cash obviously if the Bengals 175 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: are investing in these players, but from a cap perspective, 176 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: they're right now carrying twenty one point eight million dollars 177 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: in change for Jamaar Chase on his fift year option 178 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: and over twenty six million dollars on t Higgins, So 179 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: getting these deals done will actually drive those cap numbers down. 180 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: Does that lead to them actually getting a deal done 181 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 1: and bringing back Trey Hendrickson as well? 182 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: The sizes have engaged and been talking in. 183 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: Recent days here, so at least an opportunity potentially to 184 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: move forward. We also got some unresolved quarterback situations around 185 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 1: the NFL, starting out with Russell Wilson for the back 186 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: straight day. Make it a little visit, this time to 187 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 1: the New York Giants, one day after visiting the Cleveland Browns. 188 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: My understanding Ian is that it was another good visit 189 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: today with the Giants. There is nothing imminent on that front. 190 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: Obviously there's a guy named Aaron Rodgers who is tied 191 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: into all of this as well, but certainly seems if 192 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: Uss has real interest, the question now is where does 193 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: he land and what exactly is the price day? 194 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 3: Well, you're right, and for Russell Wilson, sounds like the 195 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 3: Giants visit started last night, continued into today, had nice dinner, 196 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 3: spent some time in the office, med with some owners 197 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 3: like it was sounded like it was really positive. So 198 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 3: is the Browns. By the way, rarely do you hear 199 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 3: these visits are not positive. Both of these seems like 200 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 3: they were. The real question is what does Russell Wilson 201 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 3: want to do? Right Because if you're let's say you're 202 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 3: the Cleveland Browns and you're not waiting for Aaron Rodgers 203 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 3: because it doesn't sound like they are, you can put 204 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 3: the ball in Russell Wilson's cord and make him an 205 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 3: offer right now. And if it's a place he would 206 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 3: want to go, then maybe he just jumps and says, okay, 207 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 3: let's do it. And then if you're the Giants, you say, 208 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 3: do we want to wait for Aaron Rodgers or not? 209 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 3: These are some very real questions, which is why the 210 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 3: timing and all these quarterback situations are all linked together. 211 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 3: But yes, two positive visits, to my understanding, that's all 212 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 3: he has scheduled right now. Now he needs to visit Pittsburgh. 213 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,559 Speaker 3: He's been there plenty, so it should be decision time 214 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 3: for Russell Wilson soon. Just remained to be seen whether 215 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 3: or not any other factors or other quarter actual effective. 216 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: And certainly all indications are the Steelers are going to 217 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 1: be making the first decision whenever Aaron Rodgers makes his decision. 218 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 1: They tried to resign Justin Fields, he ended up going 219 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: to the New York Jets. They now are waiting to 220 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: see exactly what Aaron Rodgers wants to do and in 221 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: the meantime, Mike. They also signed Mason Rudolph, which presumably 222 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,319 Speaker 1: buys them a little bit of time and breathing room 223 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: here to say, you know what, we've played with Mason Rudolph, 224 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: We've won games with Mason Rudolph. We can give Rogers 225 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: the time that he needs to make a decision here 226 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 1: at a time that obviously the Giants are also waiting 227 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: for a decision for Rodgers as well. 228 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 2: You brought up Mason Rudolph and feel on that was 229 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 2: the Steelers were waiting to see what happened with Rogers 230 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 2: and then getting Rudolph done. But it just got to 231 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 2: a point where this has taken longer than anybody really expected, 232 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 2: and they said, whether we get Rogers, whether we bring 233 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 2: Aaron Russell Wilson back, we're comfortable with Mason Rudolph being 234 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 2: a part of the mix. So they went and made 235 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,719 Speaker 2: that decision there. I don't think it changes anything for 236 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers at all. I think any of this stuff 237 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: changes anything for Aaron Rodgers at all. He's taken his time. 238 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: He wants to see how this develops. We talked about 239 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 2: his interest in the Minnesota Vikings and that situation now 240 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 2: that Sam Darnold vacated, But doesn't sound like there's anything 241 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 2: on that front of me. Maybe he's waiting until they've 242 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 2: potentially changed their minds. Not sure what he's waiting for. 243 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 2: He's taken his time. Nobody's missing anything right now. It's 244 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,719 Speaker 2: not like we're into offseason workouts, OTAs, whatever. So these 245 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 2: teams are willing to be patient. You do wonder when 246 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 2: the limit to that patience will eventually strike. Doesn't seem 247 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 2: to be there right now for the Giants or the Steelers, 248 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 2: though they are going through their contingency plans at the 249 00:11:59,000 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: very least. 250 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: Well, let me say this too about the Vikings, because 251 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 1: again there's been a lot of stuff thrown around in 252 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,319 Speaker 1: recent days. Here they're not sitting there debating Aaron Rodgers 253 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: versus JJ McCarthy. They're figuring out for JJ McCarthy, who 254 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: is their guy for the future. What's the best way 255 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: to structure this quarterback room around him? What is the 256 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: best plan for what they're going to put on the 257 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: field in twenty twenty five. It's about JJ McCarthy. They've 258 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: not ruled out any options. They are going through all 259 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: of them at a time that some of those other 260 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: options are starting to fly off the shelves. We're seeing 261 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: backup quarterbacks signing around the NFL. We've also seen some 262 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: of the high profile free agents signing over the past 263 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: couple of days on those deals that they've agreed to 264 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: this week. That includes DeAndre Hopkins headed to the Ravens 265 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: now officially signing his contract. It's a one year, five 266 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,479 Speaker 1: million dollar deal can earn an extra million dollars with incentives. 267 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: Here's what hop had to say about why he wanted 268 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: to land in Baltimore. 269 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 5: Lamar, you know, being the leader of this team is, 270 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 5: you know, car the reason that I came here. You 271 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 5: know what he stands for and how he's led his 272 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 5: team and this organization, you know, to the playoffs in 273 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 5: multiple years, and you know, since he's been here, you 274 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 5: know just how he's you know, just led you know, 275 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 5: any receiver group he've had, he's had, so I think, 276 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 5: you know, let's played that played a big part of 277 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 5: me come here for sure, Lamar be in the quarterback. 278 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett signing his new deal with this same team, 279 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: the Browns, four year, one hundred and sixty million dollar 280 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: extension that locks him up through the year twenty thirty. 281 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: This game after a trade request, some public acrimony, a 282 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 1: lot of back and forth. 283 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 2: So why do work out? Miles? 284 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 6: From day one, I've always said that I'm I've wanted 285 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 6: to bring a championship to the northeast Ohio. So that 286 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 6: doesn't change my stance, and I'm just going to continue 287 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 6: to turn those those opinions around or reinforce those opinions 288 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 6: by going out and doing I've always done, going out 289 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 6: to make plays, being a great teammate, great leader, and 290 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 6: being the best person I could be on this field 291 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 6: and off the field for the Clean Browns. 292 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 2: It looks like the whole thing was a bit a 293 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: long game for. 294 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 4: You to get more money. 295 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 2: So how do you tell fans know that's not it. 296 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 6: I don't tell fans anything. I go out there and 297 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,199 Speaker 6: prove it. You know, if it's about the money, then 298 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 6: I could just pack it in and not go out 299 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 6: there and give my best no effort. But I plan 300 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 6: to be the best person possible in this locker room, 301 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 6: be the best leader possible, and as well as you know, 302 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 6: dominating on Sundays, Mondays and Thursdays. So that kind of 303 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 6: mindset now remaining and being displayed on those days when 304 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 6: everyone's watching, that really shows you know what it's all about. 305 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 6: No going I think give me everything for those kind 306 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 6: of wins and what I've done year in the year 307 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 6: out that really proves it to the fans. 308 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 4: No amount of words. 309 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: Will also being displayed a bunch of tiny plastic dinosaurs, 310 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: the kind of you used to have to put a 311 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: quarter in the machine and turn the knob and then 312 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: you'd get one of the little plastic bubble. 313 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 2: Bottle up. 314 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: Though a guy like Miles Soris Rex this is we 315 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: saw a lot of silly graphics on the show. This 316 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: one might be number one. Pyra Hard doesn't have quite 317 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: as cool of a nickname, but he doesn't have a 318 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: new contract with the Baltimore Ravens where he might have 319 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: to pick up Miles Garrett every now and then next season. First, 320 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: he's got to talk to us next on The Insiders. 321 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 7: Here's a line up Victor again, Retard with the Touchtown 322 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 7: chats as is the first to come over and congratulate him. 323 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 3: Ravens star fullback pat Ricard signing his contract, one of 324 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 3: the big free agent pickups resigns for the Baltimore Ravens. 325 00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 3: There it is right there, enjoying the moment with the 326 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 3: Hire family. 327 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 2: So so cool. 328 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 3: Every one of these we see on social media got 329 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 3: a lot of it.

But a lot 400 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 3: of times people are watching like, I don't know, Derek Henry, whoever? 401 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 3: Can you walk us through? We're going to show you 402 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 3: an XO. Here, can you walk us through what happened 403 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 3: on these plays and kind of tell us about basically 404 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 3: how you are so effective during it? 405 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 2: Can we can we show this guys? 406 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 4: Yeah? 407 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, that's it here we got an take us 408 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 2: do it all? 409 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 4: Right? So this play is a wham play. It's a 410 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 4: trap play. 411 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 8: And my responsibility is I have anything align up on 412 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 8: the guard back to the center, so I see all 413 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 8: over there the three techniques on the guard, so I 414 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 8: know that I have to block him or have to 415 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 8: wear him. So I just have to make sure my 416 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 8: first step is good and just kind of steal the 417 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 8: block and make the whole big enough to where Derek 418 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 8: can run off of it. And you know, my teammates 419 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 8: did a great job. And then this player here is 420 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 8: just a toss plate to the last I actually supposed 421 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 8: to have it. I'm supposed to have a corner, but 422 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 8: the corner got blocked. So I turn and I see 423 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 8: the linebacker, so I just block the outside shoulder and 424 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 8: knowing Derek's trying to get the edge and I ended 425 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 8: up blocking two dudes there and Derek kind of did 426 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 8: the rest. 427 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 4: I wish he scored, but you know, it's all get. 428 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 2: When you're leading the way for Derek Henry, a guy 429 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 2: who was like big enough that he can block for himself. 430 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,199 Speaker 2: I mean, does that does that add any extra pressure 431 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 2: because you're like, you know, I want to be able 432 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 2: to clear the way for him and he bodies off him, 433 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 2: or does it like, hey, if I don't get this 434 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 2: block fully cleanly, well he'll clean up the rest. 435 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 4: It's a good question. 436 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 8: So an issue actually early on is that Derek is 437 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 8: so fast and so big that as soon as he 438 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 8: gets the. 439 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 4: Ball, he's trying to reach top speed. 440 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 8: So for me to leave blocking, if i'm if I'm 441 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 8: a little bit slow hesitant on my block, he will 442 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 8: actually run me over. And it's happened several times. I 443 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 8: never had it back actually do that to me, So 444 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 8: I know I have to get going, and I'm always 445 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 8: trying to paykick someone. I'm always trying to move guys 446 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 8: so like, and he's a big dude, so I need 447 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 8: to create a little bit of space, but just enough 448 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 8: to where he can hit that hole. And he hits 449 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 8: it as far as fast as he can be in 450 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 8: that size, it's super hard to take down. 451 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 4: So but yeah, sometimes. 452 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 8: If I kind of with I kind of know that 453 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 8: he might he might break the tackle, which is always 454 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 8: a great feeling knowing you have a guy behind you 455 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 8: doing that. 456 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 2: God, that's so crazy to think about. Do you guys? 457 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 3: Obviously have Lamar Jackson one of the best quarterbacks in 458 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 3: the NFL, multi time MVP. During free agency, you added 459 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 3: DeAndre Hopkins kept Ronnie Stanley, which was just a huge 460 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 3: move on the offensive line. 461 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 2: What do you think this offense looks. 462 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 3: Like now with the addition of DeAndre Hopkins and what 463 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 3: are your prospects for twenty twenty five with this offense? 464 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean last year, you know, we finish really 465 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 8: high in a lot categories. I think we don't quote 466 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,399 Speaker 8: me on this, but I think we were about number 467 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 8: one overall, at least in the regular season. We were 468 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 8: and I know we were very efficient. We were scoring 469 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 8: a lot of touchdowns, we had a lot of yards. 470 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 8: So I think we are bringing back just about everybody, 471 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 8: just about. 472 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:17,479 Speaker 4: A lot of our starters. 473 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 8: We're going to miss a couple guys, but you know, 474 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 8: I think adding d hop is is definitely going to 475 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 8: help us, and I think just another year of us, 476 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 8: you know, gelling together, having Todd Monking as our play 477 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 8: callers throughout the third year with US now and another 478 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 8: year with Derek with us again. I think it's just 479 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 8: going to be another year we're just can continue what 480 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 8: we've been doing to build off of how we can 481 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 8: get better, how we can score more points, more yards, 482 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 8: more first downs, all those things, so where you know, 483 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 8: we're real good about ourselves and we can just you know, 484 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 8: kind of steamroll teams to where we. 485 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 4: Are controlling the game. And that's what we want to do, 486 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 4: is control the game on offense. 487 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 2: We're talking offense. Fall back with you, but let's remind 488 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 2: folks you were a two way player as a defensive 489 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 2: tackle slash fullback earlier in your career. We've got a 490 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 2: guy in this draft in Travis Hunter that says he 491 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,159 Speaker 2: can play both ways. Have you been following that? Do 492 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 2: you have any suggestion as a as a two way player, 493 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 2: rare two way player in the NFL, any suggestion for 494 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 2: suggestion for Travis Hunter whether to focus on one side 495 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 2: of the ball. 496 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, I've been definitely following it. It's always interesting interesting 497 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 8: to see if I feel like it's going to be 498 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,919 Speaker 8: different from college to the NFL. It's just the NFL. 499 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 8: It's like these are grown men who this is their 500 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 8: full time jobs, and I think it's gonna be a 501 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 8: little different. But I mean, she's very impressive. I mean, 502 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 8: you don't want to him for no reason, especially doing that. 503 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 4: So it's going to be interesting to see if he 504 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 4: can play. 505 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 8: You know, like he said, I think he wants to 506 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 8: do one hundred percent of his snaps on both sides, 507 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 8: like never coming out of the game. 508 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 4: And that's the hardest part is you never come out 509 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 4: of the game. And you know, the. 510 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 8: NFL is a long season's much longer in college. But 511 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 8: I'm definitely excited. I'm interested, you know. I know my 512 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 8: last the last guy that I know recently has been 513 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 8: Scott Malock and Chargers, who same story as me. Actually, 514 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 8: you know, on the D lineman playing fullback, playing both 515 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 8: sides of the ball. He did it last year, so 516 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 8: it's going to be interesting to see a skill player 517 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 8: doing that defensive back and receiver. 518 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 4: It's a lot of running, That's all I'm gonna say, 519 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 4: is a lot of running. 520 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 3: That sounds unbelievably tiring. Count me out on that. We'll 521 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 3: see if we get to count and Travis Hunter in 522 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 3: on that.

He had a lot 544 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: to say during an interview with Brian Nemhauser from Hawkblogger 545 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 1: dot com. 546 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 4: You know Dallas is my home. I nade my home there. 547 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 4: You know my family lives there. You know I'm ever 548 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 4: going to be there. 549 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 5: But you know, I know for sure I'm not going 550 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 5: to win a super Bowl there. 551 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, like the look on Demarcus's face, he knew 552 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 1: what he just said. Michael Parsons also knew what he said, 553 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: posting on social media shortly after, this is what rejection 554 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: and envy looked like this some clown, I assume there's 555 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: supposed to be an EXPLETIVI in there. DeMarcus Lawrence also 556 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: responding and saying calling me a colon will change the 557 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: fact that I told the truth. Maybe if you spent 558 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: less time tweeting and more time winning, I wouldn't have left. Well, 559 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 1: let's revive an old segment that we like to call 560 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 1: inside the Drama with us the insiders, Tom Pelisaro, Mike Garrafolo, 561 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,120 Speaker 1: and Ian rappabord Ian. 562 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 2: I come to you, what do you got. I respect 563 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 2: the petty, right. 564 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 3: I think there's few people who enjoyed pettiness and snark 565 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 3: like I do. And so if you're DeMarcus Lawrence, you 566 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 3: got a huge bag of money from Seattle. Dallas didn't 567 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 3: really offer clearlyer than moving on. Last year wasn't a 568 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 3: very good year in Dallas from obviously he was injured, 569 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 3: but it wasn't a very good year anyway. So you 570 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 3: got the bag and you get to be a little 571 00:26:58,680 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 3: petty and snarky. 572 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 2: I'm here for this. 573 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 3: Only problem is puts a little bullseye on her back, 574 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 3: which Micah Parsons took aim at very nicely. It ramps 575 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 3: up the energy completely, But I don't hate it. 576 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 2: I have to say, I really don't. Well, now you 577 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 2: got Jordan Lewis too as well, the cornerback who's with 578 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 2: the Jaguars, talking about how it was a decade of frustration. 579 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 2: Quote I'm done, and you know, talked about the team 580 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 2: friendly deals they couldn't give me, you know, just the 581 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 2: team friendly deals anymore. That's what the Cowboys have banked on, 582 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,120 Speaker 2: That's what Jerry Jones is banked on to get players 583 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,199 Speaker 2: to take less money to be a Dallas Cowboy to 584 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 2: live and play in a no tax state, but also 585 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 2: have that star on the helmet which could be worth 586 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 2: more for you off the field. And a lot of 587 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: players now showing that frustration. It's starting to come and 588 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 2: bubble up a little bit. And this is what non 589 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 2: Cowboy fans dream of. This is what they love, This 590 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 2: is what they programmed shows about. Right here. 591 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: This the drama, this right here, and this comes at 592 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: a time where Michael Parson is awaiting eagerly what could 593 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 1: be a record breaking type of contract in Dallas, or 594 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: maybe as Ian and I talked about on Super Bowl Sunday, 595 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: potentially the opportunity for the Cowboys to remake the roster bite. 596 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 2: See you can you get a boatload. 597 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: Of picks from Michael Parsons elsewhere a lot of moving 598 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: parts in Dallas. I'm sure this is absolutely not the 599 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: last we've heard of this. Speaking of clowns, Daniel Jeremiah 600 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: and Greg Rosenthal have a new podcast. It is called 601 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: Fun and Free Agents, which you can see right here 602 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: after The Insiders tonight, and apparently they've got beef with us. 603 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 9: My favorite though, is it's not Ian just like Insiders 604 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 9: as a as an entire community. When somebody from outside 605 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 9: the club tries to come in and well, man, if 606 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 9: you're wrong, they will, they will rally, and they will 607 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 9: they will punish you in a big, big way. 608 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 3: They get even if you're right, they don't even want 609 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 3: it if you're O. 610 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: No, he doesn't. He doesn't know anything. How could anyone 611 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 2: else know anything? 612 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: That's that's somewhat fit. I would say, there are things 613 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: that are put out there that are wrong. There's a 614 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: lot of them in the past few days. As a 615 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 1: matter of fact, here Mike, I would just say, do 616 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,239 Speaker 1: you want us just to let the things that are 617 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: wrong go? If you're right, that's fine. He want us 618 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 1: to let the wrong things go? 619 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 6: Now? 620 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 2: I need more contact?

Let's break down what it means 643 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: is Pete Carroll tries to get that culture going.

We're going 652 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,959 Speaker 2: to see about the contract because my understanding was that 653 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 2: was part of the whole deal that he would eventually 654 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 2: get his contract. Incomes Cameron Wolf and Steve Weis to 655 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 2: join us here. We're going to start by talking about 656 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 2: the Raiders and Cam Pete Carroll looking for the proven veterans, 657 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 2: the guys that he's has experienced with, if possible, like 658 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: Gino Smith, to help set this culture that he is 659 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 2: trying to establish there in Vegas. Your thoughts on what 660 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 2: Pete has done with the personnel he's brought in right now. 661 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 10: Yeah, we've seen it the first few weeks so free 662 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 10: agency that Pete Carroll's bringing in guys who can be physical, 663 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 10: can be tough, and a lot of times you hear 664 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 10: a new regime talk about hey, a plan, a three 665 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 10: year plan or patience. This team wants to win now 666 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 10: and you can tell it by their signings. They go 667 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 10: out and get Geno Smith, who a couple of zex 668 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 10: I talked to thought he was the best veteran quarterback 669 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 10: option available. You get him, a guy you're familiar with. 670 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 10: He can establish the cold for your offense. They had 671 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 10: a lot of success together in Seattle. You got a 672 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 10: run game that was last in the NFL. 673 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 2: Last year. 674 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 10: You bring in a veteran and Raheem Mostert, who in 675 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 10: twenty twenty three he made a Pro Bowl had over 676 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 10: twenty touchdowns. 677 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 2: He told me, I still got a lot of gas 678 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 2: in the tank. 679 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 10: And the first thing they told me is we're going 680 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 10: to run the ball a lot, and I'm excited about it. 681 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 10: But then you look at most of their moves on 682 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 10: the defense side of the ball, and it really screams 683 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 10: what they're trying to build. And I think one of 684 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 10: the more underrated signings is linebacker Landon Roberts, a guy 685 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 10: who has been a tone setter everywhere he goes, whether 686 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 10: it's New England, Miami, or Pittsburgh. 687 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 2: He talked to him this week. 688 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 10: He said, Pete Carroll told me, we want to be tough, 689 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 10: we want to be physical, and he brings that. 690 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 2: From what I've been told, he's going to be there. 691 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 10: Mike Linebacker, their green dot, a guy to bring that 692 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 10: physicality there. And so if I'm a Raiders fan, I'm 693 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 10: excited about a team trying to win now and bringing 694 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 10: in the right leaders to do it. 695 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 11: Steve now Roberts, you can take a place of a 696 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 11: very good player, Robert Splane, who signed elsewhere in a 697 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 11: free agency. So that's going to be a big hole 698 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 11: to fill. But look, Christian Luggins is coming back from 699 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 11: injury on that to front under the defensive tackle at 700 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 11: defensive end Knakcolm Kots who didn't play last year because 701 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 11: of injury. He signs a one year, twelve million dollars deal. 702 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 11: He was an eight SAT guy opposite of Max Crosby 703 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 11: in twenty twenty three. So defensively, they look set what's 704 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,719 Speaker 11: intriguing to me by Pete Carroll bringing in a Raheem 705 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 11: Moster by signing, you know, by making the trade for 706 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 11: Gino Smith. 707 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 2: That's people say, okay, well they're not going. 708 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 11: To draft ashing genty, They're not going to draft a 709 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 11: quarterback at six Carrol very well, could, I mean, this 710 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 11: is the one thing he does. They've got like six 711 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 11: running backs in a contract right now. He wants competition 712 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 11: to see who is going to emerge, So he is 713 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 11: not going to be afraid. Along with new GM John 714 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 11: Spytech coming over from Tampa where they built through wide 715 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 11: receivers and the defensive front, to draft duplicate players, to 716 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 11: have depth and to have the best players on the 717 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 11: field at all times at premium positions. So again, I 718 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 11: think what you're seeing right now does a tip what 719 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 11: they're going to do in free agency, even though you 720 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 11: look on paper and you say, man, they've got to 721 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 11: get better on the offensive line and they've got to 722 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 11: get more help at wide receiver. 723 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:04,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, transitioning now Cam to Kirk Cousins. He's got that 724 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 2: ten million dollars trigger next year, which we think. You know, 725 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 2: some folks that made a little bit too much of 726 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 2: the Falcons seem like they're good to sit there and 727 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 2: take that ten million next year because it may be 728 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 2: offset by whoever he's playing for next year. Get a 729 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 2: little too deep into the weeds. The long and short 730 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 2: of it is, they look like they're holding him. They 731 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 2: look like they're willing to potentially trade him down the line. Well, 732 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 2: also tell everybody, hey, he maybe our backup makes sense 733 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 2: to this whole situation for him. 734 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 10: Mike, Steve, both of you guys have been on top 735 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 10: of this throughout the entire process. The reality is the 736 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 10: Falcons are not bluffing. They plan to keep kirk Cousins 737 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,280 Speaker 10: ideally until they get some sort of value. In talking 738 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 10: to teams around the league, they thought that this was 739 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,879 Speaker 10: just a bluff, that at some point kirk Cousins would 740 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 10: be released. They would allow him to go where he 741 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 10: is because he doesn't have a no trade clause. But 742 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 10: you got to look at it from the Falcons perspective. 743 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,479 Speaker 10: They paid a lot of money for kirk Cousins. Last year, 744 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 10: he met with the owner, Arthur Blank, told him, I 745 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 10: want to play. 746 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 2: But the Falcons also have to do what's best for themselves. 747 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 10: They have a franchise quarterback, Michael Panics, a guy who's 748 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 10: not going to cost a lot of money, and so 749 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 10: an extra ten million dollars that's due Sunday, that's a 750 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 10: that's a tip in the bucket for what they've already 751 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 10: paid him. And so what's the value in releasing him 752 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 10: when you can potentially keep him past Sunday and when 753 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 10: all the quarterback options get off the board. Now you 754 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 10: have the best veteran quarterback option for a team that 755 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 10: wants to trade for you. It sounds like the Falcons 756 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 10: are content with this plan, and so we may be 757 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 10: talking Kirk Cousins all the way up until draft. As 758 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 10: you mentioned, Mike g maybe even through the draft, and 759 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 10: the Falcons are okay with that. 760 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 4: Yeah. 761 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 11: I mean, look Mike, and Mike was on it when 762 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 11: he said, we're probably talking through the draft because he 763 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 11: because Cousins does not want to be in a situation 764 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 11: like last year. Like let's say he all said, Okay, 765 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 11: I'll get traded to Cleveland. Oh what they got and 766 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 11: they draft you Door Sanders. You can't board with the 767 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,880 Speaker 11: number two overall pick. I'm in the same situation. So 768 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 11: that's why this may play out a little bit longer. 769 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 11: But I think the Falcons have played this beautifully by saying, hey, 770 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 11: if he ends up being in our backup quarterback, he 771 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 11: ends up being our backup quarterback. But they will be 772 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 11: in a position at some point to trade him because 773 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 11: you're already seeing teams. You're waiting on Russell Wilson, you're 774 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 11: waiting on Aaron Rodgers. I mean, this is an interesting cycle. 775 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,919 Speaker 11: So Kirk Cousins, you know, teams may want him more 776 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 11: than those other two. They just don't want to pull 777 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 11: the trigger right now because he is under contract. They 778 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 11: don't want to give ship their hand on compensation. But again, 779 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 11: the Falcons, Michael Pennix is their guy. You even look 780 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,800 Speaker 11: at the moves they've made, they haven't really done anything 781 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 11: offensively because they think they've got their players, especially now 782 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 11: that Penis is their trigger man. 783 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 2: Just to be Crystal Clare on this, because there's been 784 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 2: a lot of confusion, and I know sometimes the particulars 785 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 2: of a contractor are tough to understand. If Cousins is 786 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 2: on the roster on Sunday, if he's not released by 787 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 2: four pm on Saturday, another ten million becomes guaranteed next year. 788 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,400 Speaker 2: But it's got what's called offset language, which means if 789 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 2: he's making ten or more elsewhere, this is not going 790 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 2: to cost the Falcons anything. So that's why they're looking 791 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 2: at this and saying not worried about this deadline. I 792 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 2: believe he is going to be on the roster comes 793 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 2: Sunday and beyond. We know you guys are going to 794 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 2: be on our roster come Sunday and beyond because we 795 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 2: always love the analysis and the insight that camer Wolf 796 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 2: and Steve Weis should bring to the insiders. 797 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,359 Speaker 3: Thank you boys.

We will not missmirch you, 819 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 7: and we will not mismirch the name of Devontae Adams, 820 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 7: who is my mild but flavorful pick. 821 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 4: Right, here. 822 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 7: Now, I know a lot of people will look at 823 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 7: this selection to be like, how long has this been 824 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 7: out here? What have you changed the hot saucer? You 825 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 7: want to order Pooka nakua, which is spine. You can 826 00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 7: take Pooka Akua in the first round, but I would 827 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 7: implore you to give a look to Devonte Adams because 828 00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 7: historically Sean mcvay's offenses have supported dual wide receivers. Pokinakua 829 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 7: can still be the number one guy. You still want 830 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 7: to go with Devontae Adams. All right, let's get spicy, 831 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 7: Let's get some I don't know if poutine is ever spicy, 832 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 7: but the Canadian Joshua Palmer is having a homecoming going 833 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 7: to the Buffalo Bills. I love this matchup for the 834 00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 7: Buffalo Bills. I think the one thing that we've seen 835 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 7: out of Buffalo over the last number of years, they're 836 00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 7: not going to have a number one wide receiver. 837 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 2: Allen takes a lot of the production. 838 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 7: However, josh Palmer is very good around the red zone. 839 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 7: In the red zone, I should say touchdowns, two point conversions, 840 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 7: those kind of things. He's going to be huge. I'm 841 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 7: taking a stab at Joshua Palmer, all right, let's go 842 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 7: three alarm. We're ringing a three alarm and Nasey Harris. 843 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 7: The only thing hotter the nase Harris draft position is 844 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 7: his beef with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He started taking shots 845 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 7: at the facilities, going up, complimenting the Chargers and their 846 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 7: weight room and all that stuff, while saying indirectly that 847 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 7: the Steelers were not good. But I love this pairing 848 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:41,320 Speaker 7: with Jim Harbaugh. Now, obviously Jim harbod recruited him to Michigan. 849 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 7: He ended up going to Alabama. But now this combination 850 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 7: is going to be working together. Love nase Harris this 851 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 7: season and edld Hoflow, I'm gonna go with Javonte Williams. 852 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 7: And I'll tell you this. I know the Cowboys just 853 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 7: signed Miles Sanders. And this is kind of like when 854 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 7: you're sitting there one of those text mes joints and 855 00:39:58,080 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 7: you order something. 856 00:39:58,800 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 2: They're like, well, we also have. 857 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 7: Carnegie As you're like, no, no, no, I ordered the shredded 858 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,879 Speaker 7: be don't make me try to change my mind right now. 859 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 7: Javonte Williams has been one of those players it's never 860 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 7: really reached his potential. 861 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 3: He ran for like over nine hundred yards. 862 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 7: During his rookie season and last year never White got 863 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,360 Speaker 7: to those levels. We kept expecting him to break out 864 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 7: in Sean Payton's offense and never materialized. But he is 865 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 7: somebody I'm going to be watching out for this season. 866 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,360 Speaker 7: I know there's a lot of people who are skeptical 867 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 7: of whether he could be good or not. But I 868 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 7: in laid in the draft. Davonte Williams is sitting there. 869 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:31,879 Speaker 7: I'm going to take a stab at it. 870 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,720 Speaker 3: Just so you know I'm remembering all of this stuff. 871 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 3: Especially if you're wrong, then I can slam you next season, right, 872 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,760 Speaker 3: Thank you very much, John, next time on the wings 873 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 3: in hot sauce so we can watch you suffer. 874 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 1: Our crack NFL research staff put together. But they're calling 875 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 1: the all free agency teams. 876 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 2: Take a look. 877 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 1: These the highest paid players at each position who got 878 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 1: paid in unrestricted free agency. Sam Darnald at the top 879 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: of the chart. There for the offense. Defensively, whole bumps. 880 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:04,360 Speaker 1: You guys got big paydays, including Milton Williams. Big break 881 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: for Mike and Ian at twenty six million a year 882 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 1: to the Patriots. I know two things about this team. One, 883 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 1: they'd be way over the salary cap and have no 884 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 1: depth whatsoever. 885 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 2: That's like three hundred million right there. Two. You get 886 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:20,239 Speaker 2: a lot of really good players there. 887 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 1: So, Mike, would that team assume that they could at 888 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 1: least afford to fill out the other forty of your 889 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:25,720 Speaker 1: sohaw spots in the rustaurant? 890 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 2: Would they make the playoffs? Right? 891 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 6: Well? 892 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 2: You know, he asked that, like I need more, Like 893 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 2: what division are they playing in? Right? If they're in 894 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:35,799 Speaker 2: the AFC South, I think there's a path that win 895 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 2: them in the agency South. So I got a lot 896 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,319 Speaker 2: of questions. But this isn't a good team, you know. 897 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 2: You hear like, oh, free agents are people that their 898 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 2: current team didn't want to pay so they're in And 899 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,239 Speaker 2: this was not a great free agent I look at it. 900 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 2: There's a lot of talent, but Milton Williams, everybody's got 901 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,600 Speaker 2: their eyes on everybody's checkbook. You got to step up 902 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 2: because you're the highest paid player or that defense. You've 903 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 2: never been a full time starter. Come on, Milton. 904 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 3: It is funny though it's going into free agency. Everyone's like, oh, man, 905 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 3: not a great list of players. This is a Pro 906 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 3: Bowl team. I would take this team. If you took 907 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 3: this team, you filtered out with somewhat comparable players. 908 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:10,760 Speaker 2: The rest of the rosterag. 909 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:13,239 Speaker 3: Maybe add another guard, maybe added tackle, stuff like that. 910 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:17,240 Speaker 3: I feel like this team would win twelve games, maybe thirteen. 911 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 3: That's pretty good. Twelve twelve to thirteen games. 912 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 1: Ian's already got that free agency team competing to win 913 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:29,240 Speaker 1: the conference championship. And that's why it comes out of GHI. 914 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:33,839 Speaker 1: Thanks everybody for watching. Enjoy a beautiful spring weekend. The 915 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,800 Speaker 1: Insiders back Monday night, seven pm, Easter Time for another 916 00:42:37,840 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 1: full week.
