So 168 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 2: there you go. All right, that was a heck of 169 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 2: a digression. We should get to the business at hand here, 170 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 2: which involves going around the NFL because there is some 171 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 2: news to report, not only on the coaching front, but 172 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 2: obviously you got media coverage at the Super Bowl because 173 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 2: everybody's on hand down there in New Orleans now. And 174 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 2: the biggest news probably it broke late yesterday and that's 175 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 2: the wide receiver Cooper Cup has been informed by the 176 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 2: Rams that the team is going to seek to trade 177 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 2: him immediately. He put out on his own social media 178 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 2: that he does not agree with the decision. Thought he 179 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 2: was going to finish his career in LA, but they're 180 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 2: going to be working to move him via trade now. 181 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 2: He does have a bonus due in March, and some 182 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 2: are of the opinion that team's interested in acquiring Cup 183 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 2: may choose to wait until the Rams pay that roster 184 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 2: bonus because then you're only on the hook I think 185 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 2: for twelve and a half instead of twenty million dollars 186 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 2: on your cap for Cup, that would make him a 187 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 2: far more attractive commodity, because I think twenty is a 188 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 2: little steep. I mean, he can still get separation. He's 189 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 2: an expert route runner, but I don't know if he's 190 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 2: a twenty million dollar a year. 191 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, because they've got obviously, you know, Pukainakua 192 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: has as emerged as their you know, top guy now. 193 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: And you know you can't pay your number two guy 194 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: twenty million dollars. It's that simple. 195 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 2: There are a few exceptions to that rule around the league. 196 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 2: We're gonna see if the Cincinnati Bengals can figure it out. 197 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 198 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: Another team that paid big money to two receivers are 199 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 2: the Eagles, Devonte Smith and AJ Brown. And we'll see 200 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 2: if the Bengals can figure it out because they're trying 201 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 2: to keep Higgins and Chase. So there are teams that 202 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 2: do it. I don't know how wise that is, but 203 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 2: Eagles are in the Super Bowls, so they'll tell you different. 204 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: That's well. Yeah, and they have hit on a number 205 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: of really good draft picks. They've got a really good 206 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: roster around those guys. I think sooner or later they're 207 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: gonna have to refurbish and choose who they're gonna pay 208 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: and who they're not gonna pay, and that'll be a 209 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 1: telltale sign. But for the time being, going forward, man, 210 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: that Eagles seemed to be in a really good spot. 211 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 1: A lot of young players who are really contributing, particularly 212 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: on the defensive line, offensive line, all that stuff. The 213 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 1: big guys. 214 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 2: Cups guaranteed salary next season only five million. He has 215 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 2: no guaranteed money on the final year of his contract 216 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 2: in twenty six. So if the Rams trade Cup in 217 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 2: a deal designated post June first, they could save twenty 218 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: million towards their twenty twenty five caps. So here's an example, 219 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 2: which I think Miles Garrett's going to fall into this 220 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 2: boat too. You execute a trade with a team, you 221 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 2: designate them a June first, or you execute the trade 222 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 2: post June first, like officially on paper submitting stuff to 223 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,599 Speaker 2: the league, but you have a handshake agreement with a 224 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 2: team on the deal, and you can save on your cap. 225 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 2: I would think we both the Rams and the Browns 226 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 2: would be interested in doing that, knowing the dead cap 227 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 2: hits those players would incur on your cap if you move. 228 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: It's not I'll say this, we put it out there. 229 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 1: You know our top We'll get to our topic in 230 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: a minute, but it's never here's the problem with trading 231 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: for any of these guys. And we'll start the show 232 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: off by saying this. The problem is this, It's never 233 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: about what you got to give them. It's not about 234 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: this third round or second round or first round or what. 235 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: It's about fitting him into your cap and getting him 236 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: signed long term. So you don't trade him for and 237 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 1: get him for four weeks and he's gone again. I'm 238 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: exaggerating four weeks thing. But you get him for like 239 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: one year or whatever, and then all of a sudden 240 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: he's gone again. The problem is economics. It's not what 241 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: draft picks you got to give up. That's usually pretty 242 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: palatable for every team. I mean you get really you mean, 243 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: even a player like Miles Garrett. You're I'm telling you, 244 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: you're talking about a first and maybe a second next year. 245 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: That's it. Maybe late round exchange, like you give them 246 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 1: a fourth, they give you back a sixth, something like that, 247 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: But that's it. You're not gonna have to give up 248 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: three ones to get Miles Garrett. You're not even gonna 249 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: have to give up two ones to get Miles Garrett. 250 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: The times when you've heard teams doing that, the league 251 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: is still laughing about it at how stupid it was 252 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: for you to do that. You look at the Cleveland 253 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: getting Deshaun Watson and that everything about that was stupid. 254 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: They gave him three ones. You don't have to do that. 255 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't ever do something similar for Russell Wilson. 256 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: That's sending it up to Seattle. 257 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: That's right. It's never about the draft picks you give 258 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: up that you're bummed about. That's never exorbitant. It's about 259 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: fitting the dude under your cap and getting them signed 260 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: for as long as you want him sign That's the 261 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 1: problem with trading for these guys. It's not how many 262 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: draft picks you give up. That's not an issue at all. 263 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: You can do it easy. The problem is economically, how 264 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: do you fit him into your cap? And going forward, 265 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 1: how do. 266 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 2: You fit as you might expect Steve. The odds makers 267 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 2: have already put out odds on who is most likely 268 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 2: to land Cup in a trade, and according to the 269 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 2: odds maker's the favorite is the LA Chargers, So we 270 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 2: just have to move across the street if that happens. 271 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 2: Plus three hundred, second team the Bills at plus four hundred, 272 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 2: Steelers at plus five hundred, Broncos Raiders plus six hundred, 273 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 2: plus seven hundred, So there you go. I remember watching 274 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 2: Cooper Cup at the Senior Bowl and he was cutting 275 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 2: to shreds, like just route running them into the ground. Yeah, 276 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 2: he was the most impressive player at senior at the 277 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 2: Senior Bowl that year at the receiver position by far 278 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 2: Eastern Washington. 279 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: He's gonna get. He's due to make twelve five this year, 280 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: and then it's the bonus, as you mentioned, fourteen and 281 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: twenty six. So you get him for two years if 282 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: you if you signed him, you get him for next 283 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: year and the year after. But you're paying him, you know. 284 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 2: Pretty decent money. Not eight feet of the market money, 285 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 2: not no, not at all middle market money, mid market money. 286 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: But he will be thirty two and thirty three years 287 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: old in twenty five, twenty six, thirty two and twenty five, 288 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: thirty three and twenty six. He's so you know, you 289 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: got to. 290 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 2: Know Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore was chuckling at 291 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 2: his press conference podium yesterday as New Orleans reporters swarmed 292 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 2: him and was asked, we're asking him questions about his 293 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 2: few Sure, the Saints are the last team as we know, 294 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 2: looking for a head coach, and the speculation is the 295 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 2: reason they haven't named one yet is because Kellen Moore 296 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 2: is their top candidate and he's the only named candidate 297 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 2: who can't be hired yet because this team is still playing, 298 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 2: namely in the Super Bowl on Sunday. He insisted his 299 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 2: sole focus is on preparing for the Super Bowl against 300 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 2: Kansas City, So he dodged pretty much any and all 301 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 2: questions about the Saints, other than the fact that he 302 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 2: felt the hiring process was very organized, didn't really say 303 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: much more about that. Right, So it's it's probably the case. 304 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 2: I mean, they haven't named a head coach yet, they're 305 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 2: in no hurry to do so because everybody else has 306 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 2: their head coach. So probably on Monday we're going to 307 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: learn that Kellen Moore is the new head coach of 308 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 2: the New Orleans Saints. That's probably where. 309 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: We're going, probably Tuesday, but they'll go back. It might 310 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: even be later in the week because he'll go to 311 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: the parade whatever if they do have a you know, 312 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: all that stuff. If they lose, maybe it'll happen tuesday, 313 00:15:58,520 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: if they sooner. 314 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 2: Because they're already in New Orleans, don't have to go anywhere. Yeah, 315 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 2: he may not go home across the street, signed the 316 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 2: paperwork and you know. 317 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: Have a press conference. All the media will be there. Yeah, yeah, 318 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: that's true, but okay, good for them. 319 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 2: The Jacksonville Jaguars are putting out GM interview requests, the 320 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 2: latest going to Bengals executive Trey Brown. He was a 321 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 2: finalist for the Jets GM job. Also, Jaguars have also 322 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 2: requested permission to speak with Chargers assistant GM Chad Alexander 323 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 2: and Rams director of scouting James Gladstone. So the Jaguars 324 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 2: went head coach first, GM second. 325 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: That's what the Bills did. 326 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 2: Yes, but yes, but for different reasons. They had a 327 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 2: GM still under contract, wanted to finish the draft cycle, 328 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 2: then moved on from Doug Whaley. As we know the charge. 329 00:16:55,280 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 2: The Jags fired their GM three weeks ago. Yeah, so 330 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 2: they didn't have a coach or a GM. 331 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: But here we're all everybody's starting to know and We've 332 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 1: seen it happen a bunch of times around the league. 333 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: It's a really important relationship between the GM and the 334 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: head coach. The head coach and Parcels used this analogy 335 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 1: a long time ago, and it still holds true. The 336 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 1: head coach is a chef, the GM is the grocery shopper. 337 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: The grocery shopper comes in with all the fresh foods 338 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 1: and all the ingredients, and the chef's got to make 339 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: it and make it work. The two of them need 340 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,959 Speaker 1: to work together. Chef says, I'm really good at this 341 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 1: and this and this and this. I need ingredients like this, 342 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: and the GM fills that order, that grocery order. It 343 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 1: really is a great analogy that works. That's why some 344 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 1: people don't like the groceries they're being given and they 345 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 1: want to make sure they got good stuff. And that's 346 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 1: that's what these That's why nobody wanted the Jacksonville job. 347 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: They didn't like what the Jacksonville Jaguars did with their roster. 348 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: You're in your They it was a hard guy to 349 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,199 Speaker 1: work with. Whatever is hard. Trent Balky might have been 350 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: a great dude, but nobody liked his choices. So or 351 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,439 Speaker 1: other things, whatever the case may be. They didn't want 352 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: to work with that guy doing. 353 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,719 Speaker 2: It, so and the Jags got wise to it and 354 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 2: summarily dumped him in the midst of a head coaching 355 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 2: search because they were losing out on Cannady. 356 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: He was the same thing too. He and Shod Cohn, 357 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: and Shod Cohn's the owner of that Jacksonville came out 358 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: and said, listening, we mutually parted ways because it was 359 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: being impossible for Trent Balkey to get anybody worth their 360 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: salt say yes. And Shod Cohn was sitting there going, dude, 361 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: what you know, I got to hire somebody. 362 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 2: Right, and I'm losing out on Kennedy. Yeah, because they 363 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 2: don't want to come here. That's exactly right because of 364 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 2: this guy. 365 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: So that's probably a tough conversation, but they made it 366 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: and here we are. 367 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 2: NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was asked about the state of 368 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 2: officiating in his State of the League press conference Monday 369 00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 2: at the sight of the Super Bowl in New Orleans. 370 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 2: Goodell was asked about the perception that the Chiefs have 371 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 2: benefited from a bias in officiating this past season and 372 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 2: perhaps previous seasons. Goodell said that the notion reminded him 373 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 2: of the past internet conspiracy theory that the NFL was scripted. 374 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 2: Goodell said, quote, it's a ridiculous theory for anybody who 375 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 2: might take that narrative seriously. I think a lot of 376 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: those theories are things that happen in social media and 377 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 2: they get a new life. I understand it. I think 378 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 2: it reflects a lot on the fans' passion. I think 379 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,239 Speaker 2: it also is a reminder of how important officiating is. 380 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 2: I think the men and women that officiate in the 381 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 2: NFL are outstanding. They have the highest possible standards. It's 382 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 2: a ridiculous theory for anyone who might take it seriously, 383 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, it's something we 384 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 2: always have to continue to work on. How do we 385 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 2: make our game better at all times. Goodell told reporters 386 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 2: that the league's officials are evaluated in several ways that 387 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 2: go beyond their performance on the field. Quote, these officials 388 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 2: are outstanding people. They go through a lot to become officials. 389 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 2: It's a tough job. Half of the group sees it 390 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 2: one way, half sees it the other way. They understand 391 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 2: that coming into it. I've never seen a more dedicated 392 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 2: group of people than our NFL officials to getting it right, 393 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 2: to doing the best job they possibly can, and I'm 394 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 2: proud of the work they do. Goodell also added that 395 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 2: the league wants to use technology to supplement and assist 396 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 2: and support its officials. Goodell cited the use of replay 397 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 2: assists as a big step forward. That's the thing they're 398 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 2: already using, adding that areas such as face mask penalties 399 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 2: could be added to replay assist in the future. He 400 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 2: also confirmed that the NFL is exploring options to create 401 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 2: pro men's and women's flag football leagues and have received 402 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 2: a tremendous amount of interest from potential investors. Now this 403 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 2: would make sense from a growing the fan base for 404 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 2: the NFL standpoint. As we were talking about on the 405 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 2: show late last week, flag football is a vehicle to 406 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 2: kind of embrace women who love football. They're not going 407 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 2: to be playing NFL football, at least as far as 408 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 2: we know. So how do you get how do you 409 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 2: immerse women into the sport more who enjoy watching it. 410 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 2: You get their daughters playing flag football, and now those 411 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 2: daughters playing flag football grow up loving football, and so 412 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 2: now they're either going to potentially play in a Women's 413 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 2: Flag Football League pro according to Goodell's potential intentions, and 414 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 2: they're going to watch regular football. So now you've got 415 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 2: a whole extra fifty percent of the population falling in 416 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 2: love with the game. So you could argue it's a 417 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 2: marketing tool. Now it might be a money making one. 418 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, with flag football, there's a lot in it, no 419 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: question about it, and I'm good with it. It gets 420 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: more people into the sport, it allows more people to 421 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: take part in it, it widens its appeal. And I'll 422 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 1: say this too, about what the Goodell said about the officiating, 423 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 1: I kind of echo it. I agree with him. I've 424 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: said it a ton on our show in the when 425 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: when the league works very hard at making the game 426 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: very competitive on the field and you have all these 427 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: close games, officials are still expected to do their job. 428 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: That means making calls in tough spots, and there's three 429 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: ways it can go, two of which are bad, and 430 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,399 Speaker 1: you know, getting it right's really really difficult. So you know, 431 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: I've got here in as an old man after being 432 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,160 Speaker 1: a young guy, and I mean being the absolute worst 433 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: with officials when I was playing. I got thrown out 434 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: of my last game because of officiating and so I'm 435 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: as bad as anybody. I mean, this is me me. 436 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: I'm the pot calling the kettle black here. So I 437 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: know how tough it is to get it right. And 438 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: they're in a tough they're in a no win. Either 439 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,360 Speaker 1: you got to call it and be right or everything 440 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: else is wrong. If you don't call it, you're wrong. 441 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: If you call it wrong, you're right and wrong if 442 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 1: you know the whole thing. So I think Goodell is right. 443 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: They do hold those guys account those officials accountable. The 444 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: guys I have spoken to in that realm. I've told 445 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: you one hundred times. It's it's fascinating to listen to 446 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: how they view the game, and it's to me, it's 447 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: reassuring that they're really trying to get it right now. 448 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: And I hear all the stuff about the Chiefs, and 449 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 1: there's no question that the Bills were on the wrong 450 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: end of a couple of wrong calls. I'll just call 451 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: them wrong. The third down to Kincaid, the fourth down 452 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 1: to Josh, the catch by Worthy, all three of those 453 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: were wrong and the Bills were on the wrong end 454 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 1: of it. But that doesn't preclude the fact that those 455 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: guys are out there working really hard to try and 456 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: get it right, and it's and when the games are 457 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: this close, it shines a bright light on the wrong 458 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: ones and it and it's just it's unfortunate for those guys. 459 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: It's the way it is. But that's that's what they 460 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 1: sign up for. It's part of what it is. And 461 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 1: the league is going to continue to be very, very 462 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: competitive because of things like that. So I agree with 463 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: what he's the commissioner said about the officiating in the NFL. 464 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey has no intentions of retiring win or lose 465 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 2: on Sunday, the thirty five year old Chief Star tight 466 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 2: end said Monday during his Super Bowl press conference, says 467 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 2: he has no designs on walking away from football. He 468 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 2: admitted he's considered riding off into the sunset, but the 469 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 2: thrill of another Super Bowl run proved to him he 470 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 2: still has the desire to keep going. He said, quote, 471 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:55,959 Speaker 2: I've thought about it, but I still love what I do. 472 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 2: It's moments like these, weeks like these, the month that 473 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: we just had in the playoffs make me feel like 474 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 2: I could play this game forever. I think I still 475 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 2: have a lot of football left in me. I think 476 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 2: this year has been one of the most special years 477 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 2: of my life. I think it's going to continue to 478 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 2: make me want to do more in the football world. 479 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 2: Thirty five. You're pushing it, especially at a skill position. 480 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, he still plays at a high level, though. 481 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 2: Career low is in the regular season this past year. 482 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: Yes, And I'll say this too, I that doesn't surprise me. 483 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,199 Speaker 1: I think when you get to the point and I 484 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: can kind of relate a little bit to this because 485 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 1: of the team that I was on. We were going 486 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: back to the Super Bowl every year, just like the 487 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: Chiefs are. Although we lost that game, we were still 488 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,439 Speaker 1: making the run every year to get back in it. 489 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: You get to a lot of game You get more 490 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: and more games in your regular season, like you're the 491 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 1: Chiefs and like that Bills team in the nineties that 492 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 1: were you know, went to five out of seven AFC 493 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: Championship games. These guys are in there. We're in their 494 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: seventh in a row. You get a ton of games 495 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: in the regular season that you're just like, this game 496 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: is completely meaningless. I mean this, we've got a margin 497 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 1: of error here that goes is three games deep. You know, 498 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: that's where the Chiefs were for a minute here, And 499 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: so he doesn't need to have the kind of games 500 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 1: he had in the playoffs during the regular season when 501 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: he's got Pat Mahomes and the defense and all and 502 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: the whole thing going on. So I'm I get where 503 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: he's saying what he's saying and how why his numbers 504 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: were low in the regular season, because we use the 505 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,199 Speaker 1: term all the time. It's like they're playing with their 506 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 1: food some of these Sometimes these guys play. So I'm 507 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: so when you do get back to the point where 508 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 1: they matter and it feels great like it does like 509 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,199 Speaker 1: when you were coming up, like when you hadn't been 510 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: to an ABC championship game yet and Pat Mahomes comes in, 511 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: it's like, oh, let's go. It feels like that again. 512 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: I'll say I'll say this when your team doesn't get 513 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: back there and it's over fast, because it's soul crushing 514 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: when your team is not that team anymore. 515 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 2: There is a bit of Bill's news here, courtesy of 516 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 2: ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. He's reporting that former Packers defensive line 517 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 2: coach Jason Rebrevich is joining the Bills staff as assistant 518 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 2: defensive line coach. He actually was here previously. He coached 519 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 2: under Doug Moron and Rex Ryan from twenty thirteen to 520 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen as a defensive assistant. So that's courtesy of 521 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 2: ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Nothing official from the team yet. We'll 522 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,479 Speaker 2: see if that becomes official sooner rather than later. So 523 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 2: that is around the NFL presented by Kalida Health, the 524 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 2: official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills. Topic of discussion 525 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 2: for you today, how much are you willing to give 526 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 2: up to land an A plus player for the Bills. 527 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 2: We see Miles Garrett wants to be traded, Cooper Cup 528 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 2: will be traded. I'm sure there are going to be 529 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 2: some others because some teams have some salary cap messes 530 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 2: to clean up this offseason and they may have to 531 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 2: move a high priced player to do it. So in 532 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 2: that trade market, how much are you willing to give 533 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 2: up to land an A plus player for the Bills? 534 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,719 Speaker 2: Eight oh three zero five point fifty one eight eight 535 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 2: five point fifty two, five point fifty the number two 536 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 2: get on board. We're gonna quickly go to the phones 537 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 2: and we'll go do Judy in Buffalo to lead us 538 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 2: off today. What have you got for his Judy? 539 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 5: No, I've listened to all this hyperball about all these 540 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 5: big players that are out there that we should pick 541 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 5: off for all we need is one impactful player on 542 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 5: the offense. Get them out there, and then plug up 543 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 5: defense with our draft twises or whatever, and we will 544 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 5: be fine. We score thirty thirty five points a game, 545 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 5: who is going to beat us? 546 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a valid point, Judy. I don't think you 547 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 2: need to come. And Brandon Bean said it in his 548 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 2: end of season press conference. You know we're not one 549 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 2: player away, he said, And he doesn't believe philosophically you 550 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 2: ever are one player away. But he doesn't feel like 551 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 2: you have to tear everything down to get better. So 552 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 2: it sounds as though there is going to be a 553 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 2: tweaking of the roster, as we tend to see every year, 554 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 2: probably more tweaking on the defensive side of the ball 555 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 2: than the offense. To your point, which I think is 556 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 2: readily apparent to most people watching this team all season, 557 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 2: that more of the fixes need to happen on the 558 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 2: defensive side of the ball than offense in terms of talent, level, athleticism, speed, 559 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,719 Speaker 2: et cetera. So I would tend to agree with you 560 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 2: for the most part. You don't have to do an 561 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 2: overall here. 562 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's interesting that the first call out 563 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: of the box and Judy is a regular caller, but 564 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: she said went on the offensive side. I mean, everybody's 565 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: been preoccupied with this, Miles Garrett stuff and Max Crosby 566 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: and Trey Hendrickson and whoever else you want to name 567 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: getting a big edge rush or a guy that you 568 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: know commands double teams. I think it's interesting that she 569 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: went offensively because if this offense does get better and 570 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: does and like she said, that's thirty five points a 571 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: game is a lot. But if they did, you're She's right, 572 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: they are hard to beat and just kind of do 573 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: what you can with the defensive side of the ball 574 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,479 Speaker 1: and see if teams can along with your defense and 575 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: also their inability to keep up with a team that 576 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: scored thirty five points a game, you're gonna win a 577 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: ton of games and get back to the playoffs and 578 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: have a shot at it again. It's interesting that that 579 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: she wanted to go offense instead of trying to help 580 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: the defense that was, you know, struggling to keep up. 581 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: But it's there. I mean, it's it's certainly a way 582 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: to go, and we I would say this, The opportunities 583 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: are gonna be there. We don't know what they are yet. 584 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 1: I'll say it again, when you when you go out 585 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: and try and get a difference maker, it's not about 586 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: what you have to give up to get Cooper Cup. 587 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: It's about what you have to pay him and how 588 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: long you can get him, and how good he's gonna 589 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: be when you do get him. Miles Garrett, you know 590 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: he's going to be vastly productive when he gets to 591 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: wherever he's going. But can you fit him under your 592 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 1: cap and what sacrifices do you have to make to 593 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: do that? And the Browns are in a part of 594 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: this as well. You're looking they're looking at a thirty 595 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: six million dollar cap hit or thirty two million dollar 596 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: cap six to bring him off right, thirty six to 597 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: not have him, to not have him, Yeah, they may 598 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: have to. They may have to wait until June first 599 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: to make this trade because then it's only an eighteen million. 600 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 2: Dollar hit and can spread the money out. 601 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: And you spread the money out, they'll have to give 602 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: him like a five million dollar check as a bonus 603 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 1: or something, or I don't know what that number is, 604 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: but they got to give him some money, and then 605 00:31:56,200 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: the money comes off the cap next year. So yeah, 606 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: it's not about what you have to give in compensation 607 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: draft pickwise, it's money and fitting in your cap and 608 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: the other teams fitting whatever compensation is under their cap. 609 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 2: Break time for us here more of your phone calls 610 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 2: in a little bit. But when we come back, we're 611 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 2: gonna be joined by Steve's former teammate, Bill's former punter 612 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 2: Chris Moore, who is at the super Bowl with some 613 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 2: of his artwork on display.

And I 621 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 2: gotta tell you, man, I didn't peg you for a 622 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:57,479 Speaker 2: woodworking artist. You know. I remember passing your locker and 623 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 2: seeing pictures of a deer that you hunted out in 624 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 2: the woods. I've seen that, but I didn't pay you 625 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 2: for this, Chris, where did this start? 626 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 6: You know, I'm not quite sure. 627 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 7: I uh sort of, I don't know if I stumbled 628 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 7: upon it or you know, man Jesus was just great carpenters. 629 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 1: We that's where the that's where the similarity is in. 630 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 6: That's right. 631 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 7: But uh, seriously, I've always loved woodwork. I building stuff 632 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 7: and building had a fence building company for a while, 633 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 7: so ruptured both bicyle tendons, and I said, my body's 634 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 7: getting too old for that. 635 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 6: Uh. 636 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 7: And I sort of wanted to stay in the woodworking 637 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 7: uh re realm of it. So I started doing little 638 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 7: palette furniture stuff and uh and that's probably when my 639 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 7: first couple of years, because that was pretty popular back then, 640 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 7: uh back in the late nineties, I mean two thousands. 641 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 6: But and it's sort of evolved. 642 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 7: We bought a place on Smith Lake here in Alabama, 643 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 7: and it has this unbelievable drift wood everywhere this this 644 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 7: lake particular, lakes the deepest lake in Alabama. It's three 645 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 7: hundred feet deep, and it's the third cleanest lake in 646 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 7: the nation. 647 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 6: It's the number one. 648 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 7: It's the clean slake in Alabama. But there's some those 649 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 7: are some facts that I learned here recently, which done 650 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 7: surprised me.

Like, you can't just 832 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 1: like gut it out. You gotta wear a neck brace. 833 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 2: That was a fun conversation. Uh, we are up against 834 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:18,799 Speaker 2: the break though, so we will step aside. Here, take 835 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,319 Speaker 2: your phone calls when we come back. Here on One 836 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 2: Bill's Live, presented by Kalida Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. 837 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 2: All right back here on One Bill's Live. Chris Brown, 838 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 2: Steve Tasker with you. Question on the table for you, 839 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:47,839 Speaker 2: how much you're willing to give up to land An 840 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,799 Speaker 2: a plus player for the Bills? Eight oh three, oh 841 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 2: five fifty. Let's get right to the phones and leading 842 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:57,440 Speaker 2: us off here is Bernard in Buffalo. What do you 843 00:43:57,480 --> 00:43:58,240 Speaker 2: got for us? Bernard? 844 00:43:58,800 --> 00:43:59,479 Speaker 9: How are you doing? 845 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,399 Speaker 10: Guys, Miles Garrett, I'd love to see the Bills get 846 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 10: him if they had to give up two number ones 847 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 10: or two number ones or a two, whatever they had 848 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 10: to do to get them. It's the guys that. 849 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 1: It's not gonna I'll tell you this, Bernard, it's not 850 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 1: gonna take two ones. It'll take one to one and 851 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,439 Speaker 1: a two and maybe a three, A one this year, 852 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 1: a two next year, maybe a three next year, or 853 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 1: switch late round draft picks. With the Browns, it's not 854 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 1: a question of whether it's not a question of whether 855 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 1: they can give up the draft capital to get him. 856 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:35,359 Speaker 1: They got that. The problem is the economics of it, 857 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 1: and that's that's where it's gonna fall apart for Buffalo, 858 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:42,720 Speaker 1: it's the Browns probably may want to wait until June first. 859 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 2: Well, they could just designate it as a June first trade. 860 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,880 Speaker 1: Right, But you know, if it's the it's the money 861 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 1: that's the problem, not the not the compensation you have 862 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 1: to give up. It's not He's not I say it, 863 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:57,440 Speaker 1: He's not gonna be that expensive draft pick wise. The 864 00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 1: problem is can you fit him under your cap. I 865 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 1: don't even think the Bills will have to give up 866 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 1: a player to get him, so, although you know you 867 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 1: may maybe the Bills will desire to. 868 00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:10,839 Speaker 2: Do that, dollars out to bring because they need. 869 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, they might need dollars out and dollars in kind 870 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 1: of thing. So yeah, I'm it's it's it's all about 871 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,240 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns, is what this is about. It's about 872 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 1: them and fitting it under your cap as an as 873 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 1: a new player, as a new team. Giving up the 874 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: draft capital is is easy. It's not going to be 875 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 1: that much, and that makes it sound like it's more 876 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,279 Speaker 1: likely to happen. It's not more likely to happen because 877 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 1: there are other teams who are better positioned that way. 878 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 2: Let's go to Jim in Penfield next. What's up, Jim? 879 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 9: Hey, how you doing, guys, Glad to talk to you. 880 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 9: I'm going to jump off the bandwagon here for the player. 881 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 9: I want to tell Steve about a couple of specific 882 00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:58,960 Speaker 9: times that the officials messed up on the bills. Like 883 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,959 Speaker 9: in the first quarter, Cook had an eleven yard run, 884 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 9: they marked them a yard short. Second quarter, they had 885 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:10,400 Speaker 9: passed the Cooper eleven yard gain, marked them a yard short. 886 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 9: Fourth quarter thirty yard passed the Cook first and ten nope, 887 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 9: yard short again, then Buffalo and in the third quarter 888 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 9: Kincaid first and ten nope, one yard short again. Also, 889 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 9: let us not forget when Kelsey grabbed Russo trying to 890 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 9: stop the homes on a sideline run. Kelsey grabbed them 891 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 9: by the shirt collar and referees right there and they 892 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 9: didn't see a thing. So please don't tell me about 893 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 9: how they're trying to do their job and do it 894 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 9: so well. They are not doing it so well. Okay, 895 00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 9: I'll hang up. Take care, guys. 896 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 1: All right, we're. 897 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 2: More than a week removed, still sore about the initiating 898 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 2: the get it. 899 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:53,759 Speaker 1: They're bitter about it, and I get it. There was 900 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,319 Speaker 1: some stuff on social media that came out and said, 901 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:01,879 Speaker 1: you know, they they the officials had spotted it one 902 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 1: way and they got what happened too is and I'll 903 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 1: say this and maybe we need and I haven't noticed 904 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:10,400 Speaker 1: And I'll say this too, I haven't noticed it like 905 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 1: like we did. And most of us didn't notice it 906 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,600 Speaker 1: that night until we went back and were reminded or 907 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:19,719 Speaker 1: told about it later. What they're doing a lot of 908 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 1: now is getting the eye in the sky, and they're 909 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:25,640 Speaker 1: getting I guess say finger quotes more accurate. The eye 910 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 1: in the sky, particularly where first downs are involved, is 911 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:31,759 Speaker 1: going down and looking at the angles they've got on 912 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 1: the pylon cams and all of that. So if the 913 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 1: guy's lunging forward but his elbow hits or his knee 914 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 1: hits before he finishes the lunge, the balls down where 915 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 1: his elbow or knee hits where the ball is at 916 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 1: that time, not where he ends up the lunge. Some 917 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 1: of that's going on in some of these as well. 918 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 1: There's no there's no pad answer for any of this. 919 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:52,799 Speaker 1: I saw the same some of the same posts that 920 00:47:53,400 --> 00:48:00,239 Speaker 1: are I guess was a Bernard just just mentioned as well, Yeah, 921 00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: you can go around in circles and if you want, 922 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,319 Speaker 1: and you can uh and and some of those you're 923 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 1: going to be right, they will miss it. But I 924 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 1: don't think that. Don't get into this big dark conspiracy 925 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: theory about they're all have it in against them or 926 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:21,160 Speaker 1: whatever whatever you can say this. Sometimes home held home 927 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:25,319 Speaker 1: team gets some home cooking because the crowd gets in 928 00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 1: their mind and they don't want to, you know whatever. 929 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 1: But that's a home field thing. That's not an officials thing. 930 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 1: That's a that's a normal It goes for every team, 931 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:38,720 Speaker 1: not just that team. So get home field that helps. 932 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 1: I see it. I mean, I get what you're saying, 933 00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 1: but I'm not. I'm not. I'm not going down that 934 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 1: road because it's I think it's ridiculous. I Like I said, 935 00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:51,359 Speaker 1: I've had conversations with these guys. They see the game 936 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 1: completely different than you and I do. And and as 937 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:57,839 Speaker 1: long as these games are ultra competitive like they are 938 00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 1: between the Chiefs and the Bills, it's gonna come. Those 939 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,479 Speaker 1: officials are gonna make some calls. Late in these games 940 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:05,399 Speaker 1: are gonna make a difference. It's all right, And even 941 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:10,319 Speaker 1: early in these games when you go back, just yeah, 942 00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:12,759 Speaker 1: don't don't get yourself all tied up and knots over it, 943 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,239 Speaker 1: because it's it's not worth it. 944 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 2: Break time for us here when we start our number two, 945 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:19,760 Speaker 2: we're gonna do it. Do it with ESPN. NFL Draft 946 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 2: insider Matt Miller, who's gonna join us, recently did a 947 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,680 Speaker 2: two round mock. What three players with Buffalo's three picks? 948 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 2: Did he mock to the Bills. We'll find out next 949 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 2: here on One Bill's Live presented by Colida Health, It's 950 00:49:32,960 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills Radio. 951 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:12,439 Speaker 1: This this One Bill's Live presented by Called Light to Help. 952 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 3: All right Now. 953 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:15,799 Speaker 2: Number two on a Tuesday, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with 954 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 2: you here on one Bill's Live and please to be 955 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:22,520 Speaker 2: joined now by ESPN NFL Draft insider and analyst Matt Miller, 956 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:26,640 Speaker 2: cranking out the content already. I mean we're three months out, 957 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 2: give or take, and he's cranking it out already on 958 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:32,560 Speaker 2: ESPN dot com and everywhere else on all their live programming. 959 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 2: So Matt, thanks for giving us some time during what 960 00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 2: is quote unquote your busy season. Saw your recent two 961 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 2: round mock. I want to begin overview wise here though, 962 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 2: because I want to see if you're in concert with 963 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 2: what the prevailing opinion seemed to be right now concerning 964 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 2: this class overall, and that is number one. Is it 965 00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 2: a little light on the elite blue chip talent and 966 00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:02,760 Speaker 2: heavy on meat and potatoes between like say, picks twenty 967 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:03,320 Speaker 2: and eighty. 968 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, guys, appreciate you having me on. And I 969 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 3: would say maybe even more than that. I think you 970 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 3: have a handful four or five blue chip players, so 971 00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:15,600 Speaker 3: that will kind of be the conversation. And then I 972 00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,240 Speaker 3: feel like you have a second tier of good players, 973 00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:22,280 Speaker 3: but just solid football players that might be picks five 974 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,080 Speaker 3: through fifteen, six through fifteen somewhere there, and then I 975 00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:27,439 Speaker 3: think you get into that area that you're talking about 976 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:31,160 Speaker 3: where picks it might be picks twenty to sixty all 977 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 3: have a very very similar draft grade. So it is 978 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:37,000 Speaker 3: a good year to have needs on the defensive line. 979 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:38,719 Speaker 3: It's a good year to have needs at tight end, 980 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 3: running back. It's not the greatest year for wide receivers, 981 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:44,120 Speaker 3: which is when was the last time we said that, 982 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,200 Speaker 3: right that it's not a good guard draft. It feels 983 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:48,440 Speaker 3: like it's been forever. It's not the deepest year of 984 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:53,320 Speaker 3: positions like cornerback. But if you need line play, O line, 985 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:57,319 Speaker 3: D line, defensive end, this is a fantastic year for it. 986 00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 1: I know that. I don't know if you track this 987 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 1: or not, because I know you know you've got a 988 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 1: two round mock draft right now and stuff. But as 989 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:08,400 Speaker 1: free agency comes around and then the draft hits. But 990 00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:12,399 Speaker 1: free agency really changes things for teams, plus the post 991 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:15,239 Speaker 1: June one where you trade guys and all that. But 992 00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 1: how much do you is your experience tell you that 993 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:21,640 Speaker 1: teams needs change after the first week or two of 994 00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,959 Speaker 1: free agency, just before the draft, it's got to change 995 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 1: it significantly. I know it did with the Bills. 996 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 3: Oh It absolutely does. And you think you have an idea, 997 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,440 Speaker 3: you know, in season of what a team's needs would be. 998 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:33,840 Speaker 3: So I'll tell you right now, I have the Bills 999 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 3: top five needs d end corner, defensive tackle, linebacker, and 1000 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 3: stafety or wide receiver. But you know, things like retirements 1001 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 3: are going to impact that. Free agency Rusul Douglas, Amari Cooper, 1002 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 3: those signings or not signings will absolutely impact this. And 1003 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,440 Speaker 3: there's always surprise trades. It feels like, you know, we 1004 00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:55,319 Speaker 3: saw you know yesterday, Miles Garrett Cooper, cup might be 1005 00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:58,440 Speaker 3: on the move, So that definitely shakes things up. Additions 1006 00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 3: and subtractions as much as so it is always very 1007 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,319 Speaker 3: very fluid. I think a big part of our job 1008 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:07,320 Speaker 3: is draft analyst is to also be studying these NFL 1009 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:09,920 Speaker 3: teams to say where are the needs, where the weakness 1010 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 3: is not just twenty twenty five, but looking twenty six, 1011 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 3: twenty seven, because there are some clubs that are going 1012 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,240 Speaker 3: to draft a year or two out on their needs. 1013 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:20,480 Speaker 3: So it is a big part of the studying that 1014 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 3: we do is to try to understand where these rosters 1015 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:22,919 Speaker 3: are at. 1016 00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:26,279 Speaker 2: I know you covered both the East West Shrine Bowl 1017 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,279 Speaker 2: and Reese's Senior Bowl here in the last week or so, 1018 00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:33,640 Speaker 2: did I guess, what are your biggest takeaways from those 1019 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:36,360 Speaker 2: two weeks? Because I know the practice setting is where 1020 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 2: the real evaluation takes place. Not that the game is 1021 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:41,279 Speaker 2: dismissed necessarily, but you know what I'm saying, A lot 1022 00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 2: of intel has gathered there in the practice reps where 1023 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:46,000 Speaker 2: you can get some one on one looks at people. 1024 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 2: Do you come out of those two weeks watching that 1025 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:53,840 Speaker 2: talent and saying, oh, maybe the draft class is better 1026 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:58,280 Speaker 2: or deeper in this area than maybe some of us anticipated. 1027 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think tight end is one of those spots. 1028 00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 3: And I know you know the Bills are pretty set 1029 00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 3: at tight end, but that is an area where there 1030 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:07,759 Speaker 3: were guys I liked. But then you get to see 1031 00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 3: them a person. You think, wait, I like this player 1032 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:12,319 Speaker 3: more than I maybe realized on tape. You see the 1033 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:14,840 Speaker 3: move in person that has such a big impact. I 1034 00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 3: think on the flip side, I went into both those 1035 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,920 Speaker 3: events being on the road for about ten days wanting 1036 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:23,480 Speaker 3: someone to pop at quarterback, wanting someone to pop at 1037 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:26,960 Speaker 3: wide receiver, and I didn't get that feeling. And that's 1038 00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:29,280 Speaker 3: probably a little bit of experience. It was my fifteenth 1039 00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:32,240 Speaker 3: Senior Bowl. So I've seen some things over the years 1040 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 3: in Mobile, Alabama. Something we can talk about, something we can't, obviously, 1041 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 3: But it's one of those years where you say, I 1042 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,759 Speaker 3: wanted a wide receiver to wow me, you know, I 1043 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 3: wanted to have that Cooper Cup moment where a guy 1044 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:45,520 Speaker 3: comes to the Senior Bowl and just blows you away. 1045 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 3: That wasn't there for me. And so I think, now 1046 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 3: I need to go back and watch more tape. I 1047 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:52,439 Speaker 3: need to dig in on some of the juniors more 1048 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:54,880 Speaker 3: who I haven't you know, needed to study as in 1049 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 3: depth yet and try to see because teams have needs 1050 00:54:58,000 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 3: and they're going to use these picks. So we got 1051 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:02,280 Speaker 3: to find a word. Where are the good players? Senior Bowl? 1052 00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:05,160 Speaker 3: That was the best O line D line group I've 1053 00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 3: ever seen combined at a Senior Bowl. The tight end 1054 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:11,279 Speaker 3: group was great as well. The corner class was really good. 1055 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,440 Speaker 3: It was a top to bottom loaded Senior Bowl group. 1056 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:18,359 Speaker 3: It just didn't have those sexy positions at quarterback and 1057 00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:20,879 Speaker 3: wide receiver that we usually go down there to watch 1058 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,160 Speaker 3: those guys and see who the best of the best is. 1059 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 1: So you've got this this draft class. It's very very 1060 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 1: top heavy and very shallow at the top. Who is 1061 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:30,839 Speaker 1: that handful of guys? I mean, who are the names 1062 00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:32,759 Speaker 1: that we're going to get to know intimately through this 1063 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 1: process because a lot of fans don't dive into this until, like, 1064 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:38,919 Speaker 1: you know, this last weekend when the Buffalo Bills get 1065 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 1: put out of the playoffs. Now they can think about 1066 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,239 Speaker 1: it maybe a little bit. What are this? What's this 1067 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 1: handful of guys? Who are they? 1068 00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:48,919 Speaker 3: Abdul Carter, the defensive end from Penn State, best player 1069 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 3: in the draft, barn On Travis Hunter from Colorado. He 1070 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,320 Speaker 3: may be a wide receiver, he may be a corner, 1071 00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 3: he may be a little of both. So he's up 1072 00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 3: there as well. Mason Graham, the defensive tackle from Michigan, 1073 00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:02,640 Speaker 3: is an elite player in the trenches. He's a three technique, 1074 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:06,800 Speaker 3: really really good there. Then there's a conversation, right Will Johnson, 1075 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 3: the corner from Michigan. He was banged up this year, 1076 00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:12,080 Speaker 3: but on tape he's a blue chip player. Will Campbell, 1077 00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:15,400 Speaker 3: tackle from LSU on tape, blue chip player, but his 1078 00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 3: arms are a little bit short. He's going to come 1079 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 3: in under thirty three inch arms. Aston john T, running 1080 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:23,000 Speaker 3: back from Boise State, awesome football player, but he's a 1081 00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:25,399 Speaker 3: running back. So I think those that's what we're looking 1082 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,000 Speaker 3: at five to six players at the top of this draft. 1083 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,000 Speaker 3: After that there is a little bit of a drop 1084 00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:31,719 Speaker 3: off to the next group of guys. 1085 00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 2: And then with respect to your mock draft specifically, Matt 1086 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:40,840 Speaker 2: you know, your first pick for the Bills at thirty, 1087 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:44,560 Speaker 2: you go Iman Worri, the safety from South Carolina. You know, 1088 00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:48,319 Speaker 2: who is an athletic talent, and I'm a proponent that 1089 00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:51,279 Speaker 2: the Bills on the back end need to get more 1090 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 2: team speed and they need to be more athletic in general. 1091 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:58,480 Speaker 2: This guy is a giant though for the safety position 1092 00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:00,640 Speaker 2: these days, this guy could have This guy could have 1093 00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 2: played safety in the nineties at his size, so he 1094 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:07,960 Speaker 2: looks like a veritable giant at the position. My question 1095 00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 2: to you is how much of a hybrid role can 1096 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:15,279 Speaker 2: he play, you know, with respect to you know, maybe 1097 00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 2: a little bit up closer to the line, maybe as 1098 00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:20,480 Speaker 2: a pseudo hybrid linebacker type in a nickel package. 1099 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's Darwin James, so the hybrid ability is there. 1100 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 3: Six foot, three hundred and twenty pounds and he's every 1101 00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:29,480 Speaker 3: bit of that. He is rocked up, but he's fast. 1102 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 3: This is in a situation of sixty three to two twenty, 1103 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 3: but he can't open his hips and run. He's going 1104 00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 3: to run in the four threes or four fours. He 1105 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,560 Speaker 3: is one of the freakiest athletes I saw all season long. 1106 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 3: So he can do a little bit of everything for you. 1107 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:43,360 Speaker 3: He's come to a play up in the box. He's 1108 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 3: come from playing as a deep free safety. He's a 1109 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 3: matchup guy. And he was a true junior coming out 1110 00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 3: of South Carolina. So he's still young. He's still developing, 1111 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 3: which is hard to believe, but I'll tell you. I 1112 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 3: put him to you guys in this mock draft, and 1113 00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 3: I had a scout call me yesterday morning and say 1114 00:57:57,840 --> 00:57:59,760 Speaker 3: he's never gonna make it to Buffalo. And I was like, 1115 00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 3: come on, let's give the Bills need a playmaker on 1116 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:03,960 Speaker 3: the back end. Let's make this happen for them. But 1117 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 3: scouts from other teams do not want the Buffalo Bills 1118 00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:10,520 Speaker 3: to have a rangey, playmaking safety who can also take 1119 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:13,800 Speaker 3: away the run game for quarterbacks, because he is truly 1120 00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:15,040 Speaker 3: a three down difference maker. 1121 00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:17,160 Speaker 2: All right, So let me ask you, then, what do 1122 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 2: you think is the highest he could go? And I'm 1123 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 2: guessing thirty is around the lowest. Bottom of Round one 1124 00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 2: is the floor. Where's the ceiling of how quick he 1125 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:29,040 Speaker 2: could come off the board? 1126 00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 3: I think the ceiling is thirteen. With Miami Dolphins, they've 1127 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 3: got two safeties who are going to be free agents, 1128 00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:38,480 Speaker 3: Holland especially, So we see teams sometimes say, hey, we 1129 00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 3: created a hole we couldn't sign this impact player. We'll 1130 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:44,360 Speaker 3: fill it in the NFL draft. So we'll see what 1131 00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:46,800 Speaker 3: happens with where the pass rushers come up the board. 1132 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:48,760 Speaker 3: I think that's the thing to watch. If we get 1133 00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:51,400 Speaker 3: a board that's wiped out in terms of pass rushers 1134 00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:54,240 Speaker 3: or even three techniques, then I think there's gonna be 1135 00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:56,840 Speaker 3: squads that look at in the Warrior and say, hey, 1136 00:58:56,880 --> 00:58:58,840 Speaker 3: this dude's a difference maker in a draft that's a 1137 00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 3: little light on him, this guy's a difference maker. He's 1138 00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 3: bringing production, he's bringing all star level traits. Those are 1139 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 3: the types of guys that always go a little bit 1140 00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:09,120 Speaker 3: earlier than we anticipate. 1141 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 1: So give us an idea too about some of the 1142 00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 1: other position inees you see for Buffalo and who might 1143 00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 1: be available if Uman Warri's off the board. 1144 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:21,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I go back to defensive end. This is a 1145 00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,440 Speaker 3: really good defensive end class, and that's gonna be the 1146 00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:25,800 Speaker 3: key is where does that board get wiped out? Like 1147 00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:29,560 Speaker 3: Abdul Carter's gonna go early, Jalen Walker from Georgia gonna 1148 00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:33,240 Speaker 3: go early. Michael Williams from Georgia also probably gonna go 1149 00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 3: in the top fifteen. Then there's a little bit of 1150 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:37,919 Speaker 3: a gap to guys like Mike Green from Marshall who 1151 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 3: just had an amazing Senior Bowl week. Jack Sawyer from 1152 00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 3: Ohio State. Jack Sawyer, you could plug him into your 1153 00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:46,240 Speaker 3: lineup tomorrow and he could start for seven years. He's 1154 00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 3: just incredibly solid in every phase of the game. So 1155 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 3: the defensive end group would be strong at pick number thirty. 1156 00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:55,560 Speaker 3: Corner is a little bit dicey. I like Trey Amos 1157 00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:57,640 Speaker 3: Amos excuse me from Ole Miss that he had a 1158 00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:00,200 Speaker 3: good Senior Bowl week. He would be in play there. 1159 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 3: I think you know, Zaidie Baron's gone, Will Johnson's gone. 1160 01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 3: You might be looking at someone like as Thomas, another 1161 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:07,640 Speaker 3: corner from Florida State who had a really good Senior 1162 01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:10,160 Speaker 3: All week. I think they're in that late first, early 1163 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:14,400 Speaker 3: second round range. As far as linebackers go, Jehad Campbell, 1164 01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 3: who is maybe a third down rusher as well as 1165 01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:20,840 Speaker 3: an off ball stack linebacker on first and second down, 1166 01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 3: much more of a hybrid player than the Bills traditionally 1167 01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:27,360 Speaker 3: go for that position. He's in that range. Carson Schweschinger 1168 01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,840 Speaker 3: from UCLA, who I love. He's one of my favorite 1169 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:32,160 Speaker 3: players the entire draft at linebacker. He would be in 1170 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,520 Speaker 3: range at thirty. So those are the big needs I 1171 01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:37,439 Speaker 3: have right now. But I would say, you know, i'd 1172 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 3: say this for Buffalo, Kansas City, Philadelphia. You know, these 1173 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,959 Speaker 3: teams that are per perennial league in the driver's seat 1174 01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:46,800 Speaker 3: at the best of the best, Like stop taking projects 1175 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:48,920 Speaker 3: late first round just because you're a good team and 1176 01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 3: you have all of vanm quarterbacks. You shouldn't take on projects. 1177 01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:54,200 Speaker 3: I look at what teams like the Rams are doing, 1178 01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 3: draft guys who are ready to come in and contribute. 1179 01:00:56,880 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 3: Because you're this you're this close to making a Super Bowl, 1180 01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 3: to win a Super well, I think you got to 1181 01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:05,400 Speaker 3: go with high impact early players instead of and we 1182 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:08,200 Speaker 3: got Josh Allen. We can take time to develop these guys. 1183 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,439 Speaker 3: I would be looking at players who were in Power 1184 01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:13,520 Speaker 3: four conferences three plus your starters and can come in 1185 01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:15,680 Speaker 3: and play right away as rookies. 1186 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 2: All right, and we know the defensive tackle class is 1187 01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:21,880 Speaker 2: a good one. To your point. At the same time, 1188 01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:25,800 Speaker 2: I would argue that the younger players up front on 1189 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 2: the interior for Buffalo are more of the three technique 1190 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 2: penetrating variety. And I'm thinking of Ed Oliver and Dwayne 1191 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:34,680 Speaker 2: Carter who they just drafted last year, So it's more 1192 01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:37,360 Speaker 2: likely they're looking for a space eater and a one 1193 01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:39,480 Speaker 2: tech that. Okay, if they can get some push up 1194 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:44,320 Speaker 2: in the pocket, great, does that afford the Bills? You 1195 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:47,840 Speaker 2: think the opportunity to wait on that position a little 1196 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,200 Speaker 2: bit similar to the way you kind of suggested here 1197 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:52,880 Speaker 2: in your mock, you know, with Josh Farmer going fifty 1198 01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:56,480 Speaker 2: six overall in round two for them, because there you 1199 01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 2: know the three techs are going to go first because 1200 01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 2: they're more of a playmaker type defensive tackles. So maybe 1201 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:04,120 Speaker 2: just help me with the strategy here and can the 1202 01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:07,080 Speaker 2: Bills sit there and wait until round two and get 1203 01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:08,440 Speaker 2: more of a space eater type. 1204 01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:12,120 Speaker 3: I think you can, whether that be Josh Farmer, Alfred 1205 01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 3: Collins from Texas, Dane Walker from Kentucky, there are space eaters, 1206 01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:19,439 Speaker 3: and I think round one, like you mentioned, Kenneth Grant 1207 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:21,919 Speaker 3: from Michigan is the one player in round one who 1208 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,200 Speaker 3: is that space eater that I say you gotta at 1209 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 3: least think about him in the first round if he's there, 1210 01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:28,400 Speaker 3: because he would pair so well with Ed Oliver I 1211 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:30,400 Speaker 3: had him going to Kansas City, or he would pair 1212 01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:32,840 Speaker 3: well with Chris Jones. But I do think that that 1213 01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:37,680 Speaker 3: you know one technique, becausezero technique, that defensive tackle group, 1214 01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 3: you're gonna be able to find really good value in 1215 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:42,720 Speaker 3: the second round. Now there is a drop off, like 1216 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:45,440 Speaker 3: I don't know that you wait till round three because 1217 01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,040 Speaker 3: then you're looking at guys who have some type of deficiency. Right, 1218 01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:50,680 Speaker 3: so round two it feels like there will be two 1219 01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 3: to three pretty solid options at that specific position. And 1220 01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:56,040 Speaker 3: then you know, if you stack the board this way, 1221 01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:58,960 Speaker 3: if you can get you know, defensive end or safety 1222 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:01,480 Speaker 3: in round one, then defense tackle around two, then I 1223 01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:03,520 Speaker 3: think you leave yourself in pretty good shape to fill 1224 01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:06,360 Speaker 3: in some of the other, you know, higher priority needs 1225 01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 3: in rounds three through seven. 1226 01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,200 Speaker 1: I know there's a ton of time it's got to 1227 01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:11,520 Speaker 1: go by, and a lot of things are going to 1228 01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:16,000 Speaker 1: happen before the draft. But do you anticipate movement at 1229 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:17,480 Speaker 1: the top of this draft by teams? 1230 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:22,320 Speaker 3: So that's that's a great question, Steve. I think Tennessee 1231 01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:24,960 Speaker 3: would love to trade out of number one overall, despite 1232 01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:27,800 Speaker 3: what you know front office might say in press conferences. 1233 01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:30,840 Speaker 3: I think they would trade out. The interesting thing about 1234 01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,280 Speaker 3: draft classes that are, as you said, shallow at the top, 1235 01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:37,160 Speaker 3: and then we have this, you know, cluster of forty 1236 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:38,920 Speaker 3: players that everybody kind of has the same braid on. 1237 01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:41,480 Speaker 3: We traditionally don't see a lot of movement in those 1238 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 3: drafts because a team's board doesn't yet wipe down us fast. 1239 01:03:45,280 --> 01:03:48,200 Speaker 3: So you might have six or seven targets, but you 1240 01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,680 Speaker 3: know the team down the road has a completely different 1241 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 3: group of players. So I think traditionally we don't see 1242 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 3: as much movement. Now at the top. It could get 1243 01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:58,360 Speaker 3: crazy because it is a weak quarterback class. If you 1244 01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:00,840 Speaker 3: need a starting quarterback, if you're the job the Raiders, 1245 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,160 Speaker 3: whoever that might be, you have to go get one 1246 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:04,960 Speaker 3: one of two because there are two that are going 1247 01:04:05,040 --> 01:04:08,360 Speaker 3: to go early. Outside of that, I don't see blue 1248 01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 3: chip players that we're going to see a lot of 1249 01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 3: movement for. If we do see movement, I think we've 1250 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:14,840 Speaker 3: gone to the back end of round one, similar to what 1251 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 3: we saw last year, where teams are jockeying to get 1252 01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:20,480 Speaker 3: you know, last year was the receivers that group was getting. 1253 01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:22,040 Speaker 3: There was a run, so teams were trying to get 1254 01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,120 Speaker 3: those receivers. I could see that being the case this 1255 01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:27,560 Speaker 3: year if some of those defensive ends slip into the twenties, 1256 01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 3: where teams say, we got to go get one of 1257 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,320 Speaker 3: these guys before they're all gone, and that would create 1258 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:33,280 Speaker 3: some trade value. 1259 01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:36,000 Speaker 2: All right, let me spin that defensive end class a 1260 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:39,720 Speaker 2: different way here with you know, Miles Garrett asking for 1261 01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:45,040 Speaker 2: a trade from the Browns. Obviously he's an appropriately labeled 1262 01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:49,600 Speaker 2: generational talent. And I know you're talking about teams in 1263 01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 2: contention should be looking for instant impact. Are there enough 1264 01:04:53,440 --> 01:04:58,720 Speaker 2: instant impact defensive ends in this class to dissuade a 1265 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:01,520 Speaker 2: team that's close to win in the whole dang thing 1266 01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:05,360 Speaker 2: away from parting with draft kapital and other assets to 1267 01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:08,240 Speaker 2: land of Miles Garrett and instead go the way of 1268 01:05:08,280 --> 01:05:08,800 Speaker 2: the draft. 1269 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:12,680 Speaker 3: Let's assume for a second it can work under the 1270 01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:15,240 Speaker 3: salary cap, and I don't have the bill salary cap 1271 01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:17,280 Speaker 3: memorize quite yet give me a couple more weeks and 1272 01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:19,080 Speaker 3: I'll get there. If it can work under the cap, 1273 01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:21,320 Speaker 3: I would be all about it because pick number thirty, 1274 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:23,200 Speaker 3: I mean that is a roll of the dice on 1275 01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:24,920 Speaker 3: a pick number thirty is going to be an impact 1276 01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:26,760 Speaker 3: or not, and you have no way of knowing who's 1277 01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:28,720 Speaker 3: going to be there. We like we just said the 1278 01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:30,960 Speaker 3: defensive end group could be wiped out by pick thirty 1279 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:32,960 Speaker 3: because of how good those players are this year and 1280 01:05:32,960 --> 01:05:35,200 Speaker 3: how many needs there are at I would say maybe 1281 01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:38,120 Speaker 3: the second most important position in all football. So yeah, 1282 01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:40,680 Speaker 3: if you can make it work money wise, I would 1283 01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:42,880 Speaker 3: be all over Miles Garrett to have the best defensive 1284 01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:46,520 Speaker 3: player in football with you know, Superman a quarterback. That's 1285 01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:49,200 Speaker 3: a pretty great way to do it on both sides. 1286 01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:51,000 Speaker 3: I know some Bills fans might be a little you know, 1287 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 3: jaded by the von Miller move and maybe feeling like, oh, well, 1288 01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:57,880 Speaker 3: we've tried that before. Miles Garrett's twenty nine years old. 1289 01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:01,080 Speaker 3: He has been unstoppable. He's actually getting better. If you 1290 01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:04,040 Speaker 3: look at us last three seasons, he's actually begun to 1291 01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:08,200 Speaker 3: become excuse me, more efficient, more impactful. So if you 1292 01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:10,200 Speaker 3: can find a way to do it. I don't think 1293 01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:12,960 Speaker 3: it's going to be as expensive as the Twitter gms 1294 01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:14,919 Speaker 3: want you to believe. I don't think you're getting three 1295 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:17,240 Speaker 3: first round picks for a twenty nine year old pas 1296 01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:19,720 Speaker 3: rusher who's going to want a new contract. It's certainly 1297 01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 3: going to be at least one first round pick plus 1298 01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:25,880 Speaker 3: you know, whether that be an impact player or another pick. 1299 01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:29,240 Speaker 3: But it would certainly be fascinating. And if you know, 1300 01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:31,560 Speaker 3: Brandon Bean calls an ask, I would say do it, 1301 01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:35,120 Speaker 3: because that would be an unstoppable duo on offense and defense. 1302 01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:37,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, so give us an idea of the way you 1303 01:06:37,320 --> 01:06:40,880 Speaker 1: understand it. What's the hold up? I mean, it's certainly 1304 01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 1: got to be the economics on Cleveland's end of it, right. 1305 01:06:45,120 --> 01:06:47,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so. It just you know you also, 1306 01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:50,240 Speaker 3: I think if you're Cleveland, you don't want to admit defeat. 1307 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:53,400 Speaker 3: You don't want to say we're this far from competing 1308 01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:57,200 Speaker 3: from contending that our Hall of Fame player wants out. 1309 01:06:57,400 --> 01:06:59,240 Speaker 3: I think that's hard for an ownership group, for a 1310 01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:02,040 Speaker 3: front office. You kind of signal, you know, you're raising 1311 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:04,640 Speaker 3: a white flag and saying, Okay, we can't we can't win. 1312 01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:06,400 Speaker 3: We got to let this guy go somewhere else. So 1313 01:07:06,640 --> 01:07:09,000 Speaker 3: and then economically, you know, for Cleveland, I think the 1314 01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:11,400 Speaker 3: dead cap situation if they were to trade him would 1315 01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:13,840 Speaker 3: be catastrophic on top of the fact that they're also 1316 01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:16,960 Speaker 3: trying to deal with the Deshaun Watson contract situation as well. 1317 01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:20,640 Speaker 3: So it's just a case in point of how one 1318 01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:23,680 Speaker 3: bad move can have such a big domino effect for 1319 01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:27,000 Speaker 3: a roster, and it's why it's so important to get 1320 01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:29,280 Speaker 3: those things right when you're handing over two hundred and 1321 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:30,600 Speaker 3: fifty million dollars guaranteed. 1322 01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:34,080 Speaker 2: Matt, thanks for the time, appreciated. I'm sure we'll catch 1323 01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:35,640 Speaker 2: you up with you down the line here, maybe even 1324 01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:37,200 Speaker 2: out in India at the Combine like we did in 1325 01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:38,080 Speaker 2: the past couple of years. 1326 01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:41,200 Speaker 1: Look forward to s Matt, appreciate you guys. Thanks so much. 1327 01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:45,880 Speaker 2: All right. That's Matt Miller, ESPN NFL Draft analyst and insider, 1328 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:48,600 Speaker 2: And just so it's clear for everybody. In his two 1329 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:52,480 Speaker 2: round mock, he went Bills in round one at thirty 1330 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 2: South Carolina safety Nick emon Warri then round two, pick 1331 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:01,640 Speaker 2: fifty six with the Minnesota that they acquired in the 1332 01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:04,960 Speaker 2: trade for Diggs to Houston. He has the Bills taking 1333 01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:08,040 Speaker 2: Joshua farm Of the defensive tackle out of Florida State, 1334 01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:13,320 Speaker 2: and then six picks later their own pick at sixty two, 1335 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:17,600 Speaker 2: he has them taking edge rusher Landon Jackson out of Arkansas. 1336 01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:21,320 Speaker 2: He was the LSU transfer that finished his college career there. 1337 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:23,200 Speaker 2: I think he had six and a half sacks each 1338 01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 2: of the last two seasons for the Razorbacks. 1339 01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:28,800 Speaker 1: So safety, defensive tackle, edge. 1340 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:31,840 Speaker 2: And we're expecting to heavy defensive. 1341 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:35,040 Speaker 1: The safety, the safeties, you know, obviously because he's in 1342 01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:39,040 Speaker 1: the tough first round. I don't know how things may 1343 01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:44,000 Speaker 1: change in this offseason. I would anticipate the Bills signing 1344 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,599 Speaker 1: a guy in free agency of safety or whatever, because 1345 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:52,879 Speaker 1: there's usually like two dozen of them available, and. 1346 01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:56,479 Speaker 2: There were twenty starting safety and free starting last year 1347 01:08:56,600 --> 01:08:59,880 Speaker 2: starting safeties, which was up from eighteen the year. 1348 01:09:00,439 --> 01:09:02,880 Speaker 1: So I think I think the Bills will probably fill 1349 01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:05,479 Speaker 1: that need through free agency a guy who's already known 1350 01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:07,840 Speaker 1: a known commodity, because you don't know if uman war 1351 01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:13,599 Speaker 1: imn Warri, yeah imun Worri is gonna be available, right, 1352 01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:17,479 Speaker 1: so if you knew he was gonna be there, a's thirty, 1353 01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:20,120 Speaker 1: We're like, okay, well, yeah, we'll take we'll sit there 1354 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:22,760 Speaker 1: and wait and we'll take him there. But you don't know. 1355 01:09:23,320 --> 01:09:29,960 Speaker 2: Once you get past ten, you're you have less chance, 1356 01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:34,320 Speaker 2: less and less control of what happens because you got 1357 01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:38,200 Speaker 2: twenty nine teams in front of you, not to mention 1358 01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:42,360 Speaker 2: teams behind you that could leap frog. So your level 1359 01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,719 Speaker 2: of control when you're picking thirtieth every year is minimal 1360 01:09:45,800 --> 01:09:46,320 Speaker 2: at best. 1361 01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:49,360 Speaker 1: Getting into the bottom of the first as we saw 1362 01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:53,360 Speaker 1: teams do that because because there's a threshold there, don't 1363 01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:57,080 Speaker 1: forget where those first round draft picks, even if it's 1364 01:09:57,080 --> 01:10:00,559 Speaker 1: the thirty second player picked, they get a five year deal, 1365 01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:02,559 Speaker 1: not a four year deal, and you get an extra 1366 01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:06,760 Speaker 1: free year of service. That's what the Baltimore Ravens did 1367 01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:09,960 Speaker 1: with Lamar. You know this. They jumped in. They could 1368 01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:14,000 Speaker 1: have gotten Lamar way deeper, but they got the extra year, 1369 01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:17,519 Speaker 1: an extra margin of error to get it right with 1370 01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:20,960 Speaker 1: him financially, and they get him cheaper if he does 1371 01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:23,080 Speaker 1: turn out to be the guy that he is, So 1372 01:10:23,120 --> 01:10:25,479 Speaker 1: they did the right thing. That's that's a big thing 1373 01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 1: when you get down to the bottom of the first 1374 01:10:27,600 --> 01:10:30,200 Speaker 1: of just getting across that threshold of saying he's got 1375 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:32,840 Speaker 1: that extra year on the end of the guy's rookie contract. 1376 01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:34,679 Speaker 1: That's just another year cheap labor. 1377 01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:39,920 Speaker 2: A topic of discussion for you today, since we're through 1378 01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:42,000 Speaker 2: our guests for the show, how much are you willing 1379 01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:44,000 Speaker 2: to give up to land an a plus player for 1380 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:45,880 Speaker 2: the Bills. You heard Matt Miller address it when I 1381 01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:48,840 Speaker 2: put the question to him. He said, you know, if 1382 01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:50,800 Speaker 2: I'm the Bills and I got a chance at a 1383 01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:53,960 Speaker 2: sure thing the caliber of Garrett, I'm probably gonna try 1384 01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:55,799 Speaker 2: to do it, provided all the money works and everything. 1385 01:10:55,840 --> 01:10:59,959 Speaker 2: That's a big butt, but still in all reigning defensive 1386 01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:02,280 Speaker 2: Player of the Year is available. 1387 01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 1: For what is left resident I mean jj Watam to Arizona. Yeah, 1388 01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:09,920 Speaker 1: but that was very late the enders, right, he wasn't 1389 01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:11,759 Speaker 1: twenty nine, No. 1390 01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:15,759 Speaker 2: I think he was like thirty two, I want to say, 1391 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:18,880 Speaker 2: which doesn't sound like a big difference, but yeah, NFL 1392 01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:19,720 Speaker 2: players will tell you out. 1393 01:11:19,720 --> 01:11:21,960 Speaker 1: It's been reported to by the people who cover the 1394 01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:25,280 Speaker 1: brown like Mary Kay Cabot, who has been covering the 1395 01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:28,840 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns forever. She'll tell you the Browns have said 1396 01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:31,519 Speaker 1: there are no plans to trade Miles Garrett. They're going 1397 01:11:31,560 --> 01:11:34,120 Speaker 1: to try and make it work with him, right, that's 1398 01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:35,080 Speaker 1: the right thing to do. 1399 01:11:35,479 --> 01:11:38,519 Speaker 2: And let's not forget a team that was successful in 1400 01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:41,400 Speaker 2: doing that over the past couple of years has been 1401 01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:44,240 Speaker 2: the San Francisco forty nine Ers. Deebo Samuel asked for 1402 01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:47,280 Speaker 2: a trade out of San Francisco. He's still there three 1403 01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:51,320 Speaker 2: years later. Brandon Ayuk held out a training camp last summer, 1404 01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:55,400 Speaker 2: wanted out. They made it work. I mean he wanted 1405 01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:57,280 Speaker 2: out so bad and had the rest of the league 1406 01:11:57,320 --> 01:12:01,040 Speaker 2: so convinced the Browns restructure Tomari Cooper's contract so they 1407 01:12:01,080 --> 01:12:03,880 Speaker 2: could ship them to San Francisco to get Ayuk, and 1408 01:12:03,960 --> 01:12:09,160 Speaker 2: it never happened. So now are the forty nine Ers 1409 01:12:09,160 --> 01:12:12,040 Speaker 2: a much different franchise than the Browns from a success standpoint. Yes, 1410 01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:14,160 Speaker 2: They've been in two Super Bowls in the last three years, 1411 01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:16,840 Speaker 2: so it's a little bit different convincing that player to 1412 01:12:16,920 --> 01:12:19,400 Speaker 2: come back. Hey, come back to the family. We're a 1413 01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:22,040 Speaker 2: contending team. Let's do this. We're on the cusp let 1414 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:26,400 Speaker 2: The Browns are not, and they are fiscal mess with 1415 01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:28,559 Speaker 2: all the money they still owe to Shaun Watson. So 1416 01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:31,360 Speaker 2: it's a harder cell. 1417 01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:35,280 Speaker 1: That's different from Miles Garrett sitting there. It's a harder cell, right, 1418 01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:40,080 Speaker 1: What are you really telling me here, I'm I'm gonna I. 1419 01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:42,599 Speaker 2: That's I mean, insert the insert the gift for Ron 1420 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:44,720 Speaker 2: Burgundy going I don't believe you. 1421 01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:47,840 Speaker 1: I don't believe it is. That's where we all get it. 1422 01:12:48,320 --> 01:12:52,679 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go back and and check. I don't 1423 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:58,040 Speaker 1: know how because it's it's a real thing. If you 1424 01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:02,880 Speaker 1: get to the Brown and Miles Garrett, let's just see 1425 01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:07,960 Speaker 1: what he's His career earnings thus far are one hundred 1426 01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:09,960 Speaker 1: and twenty four million already. He doesn't need to go 1427 01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:12,880 Speaker 1: to training camp and he hold out a year. Oh yeah, 1428 01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:15,479 Speaker 1: he can deprive them of his services. He's already got 1429 01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:18,839 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty four million dollars of career earnings already. 1430 01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:21,559 Speaker 2: Yeah. He his kids and his grandkids don't have to 1431 01:13:21,560 --> 01:13:25,519 Speaker 2: work a day, and so he he is fortified for 1432 01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:26,160 Speaker 2: a siege. 1433 01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:28,240 Speaker 1: Right he can sit. 1434 01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:30,719 Speaker 2: And yeah, okay, if they don't move on it, yes. 1435 01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:38,640 Speaker 1: He can say that's fine, don't don't We'll see. But 1436 01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:42,559 Speaker 1: that's that's not This isn't like Lamar Jackson or one 1437 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:44,439 Speaker 1: of these first round draft picks who hasn't made him 1438 01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:46,799 Speaker 1: many holding out in the first the fifth year. There 1439 01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:49,160 Speaker 1: where most of the money of their rickey contract is 1440 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:54,479 Speaker 1: waiting for them at the fifth year. That's different. That's different. Yeah, 1441 01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:59,040 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett has got you know, he's got food and 1442 01:13:59,080 --> 01:14:01,320 Speaker 1: water for as long as he need to hold out. 1443 01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 2: Let's take a quick phone call before the breakdown on 1444 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:05,840 Speaker 2: the West Side. What you got for a tom? 1445 01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:08,799 Speaker 4: Hey, guys, I wish you'd have left me more time. 1446 01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:15,400 Speaker 4: But anyway, I love that Matt and all you guys 1447 01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:18,880 Speaker 4: you've been talking about defense because I think the defense 1448 01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:22,400 Speaker 4: needs needs to be bolstered. And as much as we 1449 01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:26,479 Speaker 4: all love Judy, I would love to see Murray or 1450 01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:30,360 Speaker 4: I would love to see Cooper cup on the bills 1451 01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:34,880 Speaker 4: if he comes in on a white contract and he 1452 01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:37,680 Speaker 4: can play with the Murray Cooper and then all the 1453 01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:40,599 Speaker 4: fans could yell Coop all game long and they wouldn't 1454 01:14:40,640 --> 01:14:45,799 Speaker 4: be wrong. But after that, I would love to see 1455 01:14:46,080 --> 01:14:49,559 Speaker 4: Jason Garrett come in here. But the only way that's 1456 01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:54,360 Speaker 4: gonna happen is if the Cleveland Browns eat some of 1457 01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:58,960 Speaker 4: his money because we can't afford his salary cap, and 1458 01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:01,880 Speaker 4: he can come in here and we could redo his 1459 01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:05,880 Speaker 4: contract and he could be the von Miller that we 1460 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:06,559 Speaker 4: didn't get. 1461 01:15:07,640 --> 01:15:10,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, he might even be more than that based on 1462 01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:12,519 Speaker 2: where he has, where he is at this point in 1463 01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:16,040 Speaker 2: his career. It's just you're talking about Miles a Sex. 1464 01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, not Jason Garrett. Miles Garrett. You got me on 1465 01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:21,920 Speaker 1: that one. I thought you were gonna you're whatever. 1466 01:15:21,680 --> 01:15:22,760 Speaker 2: You want to make a coaching move. 1467 01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:24,840 Speaker 1: Yes, I was about ready to bite you. 1468 01:15:24,920 --> 01:15:25,680 Speaker 2: It's understandable. 1469 01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:29,000 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Yeah, Oh and it would be yes, let's 1470 01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:32,000 Speaker 1: not make any let's try not to make any personnel 1471 01:15:32,080 --> 01:15:34,280 Speaker 1: moves based on what the crowd will chant. 1472 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:37,759 Speaker 2: Right, But he's got he's got plenty, Tom's got plenty 1473 01:15:37,800 --> 01:15:40,400 Speaker 2: of the Bills money to spend. He's got Cup Cooper 1474 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:42,400 Speaker 2: and Miles Garrett all coming. 1475 01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:45,439 Speaker 1: To the Bills, none of whom play for the Bills 1476 01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:48,040 Speaker 1: right now. So well, yeah, Cooper is going to be 1477 01:15:48,040 --> 01:15:50,680 Speaker 1: a free agent. I'm telling you right now. The problem 1478 01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:54,439 Speaker 1: with Miles Garrett is the economics on the Cleveland side 1479 01:15:54,479 --> 01:15:58,160 Speaker 1: of it, and for Buffalo fans, it's the problems with 1480 01:15:58,240 --> 01:15:59,680 Speaker 1: the cap on the Bill side of it. It's a 1481 01:15:59,720 --> 01:16:01,439 Speaker 1: lot of they got work to do. They got work 1482 01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:01,760 Speaker 1: to do. 1483 01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:03,960 Speaker 2: And it would have you presumably would send a player 1484 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:07,680 Speaker 2: there to get dollars out because you're gonna have to 1485 01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:10,559 Speaker 2: redo his deal. He's gonna be looking for it. And listen, 1486 01:16:10,680 --> 01:16:13,920 Speaker 2: as most premier players are, you can't send a player 1487 01:16:13,920 --> 01:16:15,600 Speaker 2: to Cleveland because. 1488 01:16:15,360 --> 01:16:20,679 Speaker 1: That that just means instead of a thirty six million 1489 01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:22,720 Speaker 1: dollar dead cap that you're giving them a player that's 1490 01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:25,679 Speaker 1: gonna cost him like twelve million, So that's forty eight million. 1491 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:30,040 Speaker 1: I mean, that doesn't help Cleveland's finance finances. 1492 01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:31,960 Speaker 2: That they want cheap labor. 1493 01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:35,960 Speaker 1: They want draft picks that are free because they aren't 1494 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:39,200 Speaker 1: even here. They want draft picks in twenty five, twenty six, 1495 01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:43,439 Speaker 1: twenty seven, even because that they're free, and they can 1496 01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:46,800 Speaker 1: justify the deal because they're gonna get a first round 1497 01:16:46,800 --> 01:16:50,280 Speaker 1: pick in twenty six or twenty seven. They can't even 1498 01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:53,000 Speaker 1: take them this year because they can't pay him, you know, 1499 01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:59,800 Speaker 1: So they're in Cleveland is an absolute tire fire right now. 1500 01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:02,120 Speaker 1: And that's what's holding up this deal with Garrett, plus 1501 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:03,840 Speaker 1: the fact that they don't want to if. 1502 01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:06,960 Speaker 2: They well they don't want to do like Matt Mills, if. 1503 01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:11,559 Speaker 1: They trade Miles Garrett. They're waving the white flag on 1504 01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:15,160 Speaker 1: this season on the first day of the league year. 1505 01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:19,639 Speaker 2: Well, right, but they're a four and thirteen team. Their 1506 01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:24,120 Speaker 2: quarterback position is a mess, their financial situation is a mess. 1507 01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:30,200 Speaker 2: They're not gonna win again by the time Garrett prime 1508 01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:33,120 Speaker 2: is done. I mean, he's got probably three more years 1509 01:17:33,160 --> 01:17:36,439 Speaker 2: of his prime career left. Are you telling me the 1510 01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 2: Browns are gonna be a Super Bowl contender in that stretch? No? 1511 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:41,880 Speaker 2: Not with their financial constraints. Right now. They're on the 1512 01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 2: hook for ninety two point seven million dollars just for 1513 01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:47,040 Speaker 2: the quarterback for the next two years, and he might 1514 01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:49,000 Speaker 2: not even be healthy enough to play this year. 1515 01:17:50,800 --> 01:17:56,479 Speaker 1: The Browns gave Deshaun Watson that contract. How much can 1516 01:17:56,520 --> 01:18:01,080 Speaker 1: you rely on their ability to think that deeply through 1517 01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:01,759 Speaker 1: this problem. 1518 01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:04,400 Speaker 2: Well, maybe that's a good thing for the Bills and 1519 01:18:04,439 --> 01:18:05,479 Speaker 2: everybody else interested. 1520 01:18:05,600 --> 01:18:08,639 Speaker 1: They may not. They weren't. They won't trade Miles Garrett. 1521 01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:11,360 Speaker 2: Well, well, if they want to be pig headed about it, 1522 01:18:11,400 --> 01:18:13,640 Speaker 2: be pig headed about it. But it's not good to 1523 01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:16,080 Speaker 2: have a player on your roster who doesn't want to 1524 01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 2: be there. That's your culture is bad enough as it is. 1525 01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:21,040 Speaker 2: You're gonna make it worse by, you know, keep holding 1526 01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:23,080 Speaker 2: a guy person. I mean, that's not the way to go. 1527 01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:27,599 Speaker 1: If they don't want to make the deal for them 1528 01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:31,160 Speaker 1: it's better that Miles Garrett sits out because then they 1529 01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:34,679 Speaker 1: got a big fat excuse our best players doesn't want. 1530 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:37,080 Speaker 2: To put something of value. Is not helping you in 1531 01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:39,920 Speaker 2: any way. At least have it help you buy subtraction 1532 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:42,360 Speaker 2: because of what you can get in return for a 1533 01:18:42,400 --> 01:18:45,080 Speaker 2: premier player at his position. God, take a break here, 1534 01:18:45,320 --> 01:18:46,880 Speaker 2: more of your phone calls when we come back on 1535 01:18:46,880 --> 01:18:49,320 Speaker 2: One Bill's Live presented by Collide Hell, it's Buffalo Bill's right, 1536 01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:06,479 Speaker 2: you're a One Bill's Live on a Tuesday, Chris Brown, 1537 01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:11,320 Speaker 2: Steve Tasker and question on the table for you today, 1538 01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:13,559 Speaker 2: how much are you willing to give up to land 1539 01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:17,639 Speaker 2: an A plus player for the Bills. It is an 1540 01:19:17,760 --> 01:19:21,400 Speaker 2: interesting decision, to say the least. 1541 01:19:21,479 --> 01:19:22,960 Speaker 1: It's not as expensive as you think. 1542 01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:27,519 Speaker 2: No, and it's really and it's a it's a sure thing. 1543 01:19:28,600 --> 01:19:33,240 Speaker 1: It's an absolute slam dunk, which Miles next year with 1544 01:19:33,360 --> 01:19:34,920 Speaker 1: the group we have now, if you plug, if you 1545 01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 1: took Vaughan off the team and put Miles Garrett on 1546 01:19:37,240 --> 01:19:42,839 Speaker 1: the team, Miles Garrett would come in and have fifteen 1547 01:19:42,960 --> 01:19:45,320 Speaker 1: plus sacks a year next year with this same group 1548 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:45,839 Speaker 1: of guys. 1549 01:19:45,720 --> 01:19:47,400 Speaker 2: At fourteen and a half the last two years he 1550 01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:49,080 Speaker 2: would have his he would. 1551 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:52,920 Speaker 1: He may set a career high in sacks at twenty. 1552 01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:57,920 Speaker 1: I'm telling that guy, listen, he's going to be playing 1553 01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:01,840 Speaker 1: for a defense that is playing against an offense that 1554 01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:04,280 Speaker 1: is trying to catch Josh Allen. On this offense that 1555 01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:06,720 Speaker 1: scoring thirty points to a lot of pass rushing, he's 1556 01:20:06,800 --> 01:20:09,479 Speaker 1: gonna be in a He's gonna be in a garden 1557 01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:17,000 Speaker 1: of manure. That's how fertile it's gonna be. He's gonna be. 1558 01:20:17,040 --> 01:20:19,600 Speaker 1: When you thought out of passing attempts, it's not. 1559 01:20:19,880 --> 01:20:22,519 Speaker 2: It's not out of the realm of conscious thought here. 1560 01:20:22,600 --> 01:20:25,160 Speaker 2: And it makes logical sense because in each of the 1561 01:20:25,240 --> 01:20:28,240 Speaker 2: last two seasons he's gotten fourteen and a half sacks 1562 01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:32,240 Speaker 2: on a team that often plays from behind on the scoreboard. 1563 01:20:31,840 --> 01:20:32,439 Speaker 1: Way behind. 1564 01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:35,400 Speaker 2: So yeah, it is. It is a word. It is 1565 01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:37,599 Speaker 2: a logical conclusion to make. 1566 01:20:37,960 --> 01:20:39,160 Speaker 1: He is a monster. 1567 01:20:39,479 --> 01:20:42,600 Speaker 2: Let's get Let's go to Kevin and Hamburg next. What 1568 01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:43,559 Speaker 2: do you got for us? Kevin? 1569 01:20:43,720 --> 01:20:45,479 Speaker 8: Hey, guys, how you doing? Thanks for taking my car 1570 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:49,320 Speaker 8: when you said yesterday the Miles gear wanted to be 1571 01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:51,479 Speaker 8: treated to a team with a winner and he both 1572 01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:56,280 Speaker 8: said that Cleveland. It's up to Cleveland, not the Miles 1573 01:20:56,320 --> 01:20:59,479 Speaker 8: gear and it's up to Cleveland, you said, And I'm 1574 01:20:59,520 --> 01:21:02,000 Speaker 8: thinking of my teams have done this in the past 1575 01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 8: when they did treat them. 1576 01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:04,880 Speaker 4: But they say, like, we are going. 1577 01:21:04,840 --> 01:21:07,519 Speaker 8: To treat someone in our own conference who could be 1578 01:21:07,560 --> 01:21:08,240 Speaker 8: a roadblock. 1579 01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:09,800 Speaker 4: I please sneaky. 1580 01:21:09,479 --> 01:21:12,320 Speaker 8: Idea and give them to someone like in the NFC. 1581 01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:14,720 Speaker 8: You know you don't want to give to someone in 1582 01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:18,160 Speaker 8: your own conference. Yeah, I've done tricks like Dad, Yeah, 1583 01:21:18,240 --> 01:21:21,120 Speaker 8: we'll give it Detroit, We'll give you a Dallas, Green Bay, whoever. 1584 01:21:21,439 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 8: But we ain't gonna give you that might be a roadblock. 1585 01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:27,960 Speaker 2: Right, I understand. I understand that approach. Kevin. I understand 1586 01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:29,639 Speaker 2: what you're saying, but I think in the grand scheme 1587 01:21:29,720 --> 01:21:30,439 Speaker 2: of it, it's what's. 1588 01:21:30,479 --> 01:21:35,120 Speaker 1: Hio State is a roadblock for the Cleveland Browns. What 1589 01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:38,479 Speaker 1: are they talking about? No, I mean give them, Kevin. 1590 01:21:38,520 --> 01:21:40,720 Speaker 2: I understand the premise, but I think what you have 1591 01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:44,280 Speaker 2: to remember is if the Browns get to the point 1592 01:21:44,320 --> 01:21:46,519 Speaker 2: where they say, look, we are at the point of 1593 01:21:46,600 --> 01:21:49,880 Speaker 2: no return, we can't convince Miles otherwise he does want out. 1594 01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:53,120 Speaker 2: Let's just make this happen. The Browns are going to 1595 01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:57,000 Speaker 2: do what is ultimately best for the Browns, and so 1596 01:21:57,160 --> 01:22:01,400 Speaker 2: the best compensation package they can a choir, whether it's 1597 01:22:01,439 --> 01:22:06,200 Speaker 2: from the Pittsburgh Steelers or the Timbuck two Raiders, they're 1598 01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:08,040 Speaker 2: going to do that package. 1599 01:22:08,120 --> 01:22:09,800 Speaker 1: They don't care if it's the Steelers. 1600 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:15,360 Speaker 2: Now if the if the offers are relatively equal and 1601 01:22:15,520 --> 01:22:19,559 Speaker 2: it's the Steelers and the Rams, they'll take the Rams deal. 1602 01:22:20,080 --> 01:22:24,040 Speaker 2: But they're taking the thing and the package that's best 1603 01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:26,880 Speaker 2: going to help the Browns. I would like to think 1604 01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:29,680 Speaker 2: that they are smart enough to at least do that 1605 01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:33,240 Speaker 2: and not let oh my god, it's a division rival, 1606 01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:36,360 Speaker 2: right get in the way of getting the best trade compensation. 1607 01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:40,600 Speaker 1: If the Browns do this, they listen the Browns. No, 1608 01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:46,080 Speaker 1: I mean they got no quarterback. Their quarterback they've got 1609 01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:48,960 Speaker 1: that is that Is has a travesty of a contract, 1610 01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:51,720 Speaker 1: has blown his achilles out twice now in the last 1611 01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:55,760 Speaker 1: means I mean they got nobody. They got nobody. Their 1612 01:22:55,840 --> 01:22:59,719 Speaker 1: quarterback is a free agent. Jamis is a free agent. 1613 01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:05,599 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson is injured, can't play, and it's not going 1614 01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:08,280 Speaker 1: to be able to play. So they got nobody. So 1615 01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:11,280 Speaker 1: they've got to know how tall, what an uphill battle? 1616 01:23:11,360 --> 01:23:16,599 Speaker 1: This is their job. One, Maybe if they are smart 1617 01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:20,960 Speaker 1: and ready to do it is to clean house, get 1618 01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:24,440 Speaker 1: what they can get and start from the ground up financially. 1619 01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:30,320 Speaker 1: The whole shooting match, I don't think they're willing to 1620 01:23:30,400 --> 01:23:30,600 Speaker 1: do that. 1621 01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:33,599 Speaker 2: They may be, I don't know what they're looking at. 1622 01:23:34,040 --> 01:23:36,000 Speaker 1: I don't know what they're looking at. Yeah, they should 1623 01:23:36,040 --> 01:23:39,519 Speaker 1: trade Miles Garrett, they should trade Wyatt Teller. They should 1624 01:23:39,520 --> 01:23:41,559 Speaker 1: trade every good player they got. They got a couple, 1625 01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:44,320 Speaker 1: they should trade every good player. They've got to try 1626 01:23:44,320 --> 01:23:45,960 Speaker 1: and get as much as they can so they can 1627 01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:49,519 Speaker 1: get young, inexpensive players and start from the ground up 1628 01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:55,760 Speaker 1: and get their finances in order. I doubt that it's 1629 01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:59,400 Speaker 1: gonna be that's going to be the plan, because it's 1630 01:23:59,520 --> 01:24:02,800 Speaker 1: just too big a decision and they're some of their 1631 01:24:02,840 --> 01:24:05,760 Speaker 1: fans will get it, but they got to sit through 1632 01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:08,240 Speaker 1: a season or two off. 1633 01:24:07,760 --> 01:24:10,679 Speaker 2: And they've done that before in the not too distant past, 1634 01:24:10,840 --> 01:24:12,880 Speaker 2: so that would be tough for fans to stomach as well. 1635 01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:14,800 Speaker 2: Let's go to Ryan in Toronto. What's up? Ryan? 1636 01:24:15,760 --> 01:24:16,719 Speaker 4: Hey, Chris Steve. 1637 01:24:17,160 --> 01:24:19,439 Speaker 11: Honestly, I've got to be honest with you guys. This 1638 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:22,760 Speaker 11: whole Miles Gael thing, I think it's not going to happen. 1639 01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:23,840 Speaker 4: With it, Bill, we don't have it. 1640 01:24:24,040 --> 01:24:26,040 Speaker 11: We have a draft with draft capital, but our draft 1641 01:24:26,200 --> 01:24:28,720 Speaker 11: is so far out it's not even worth it. For 1642 01:24:28,840 --> 01:24:31,880 Speaker 11: Kleagle pas me, I think a better options go up 1643 01:24:31,920 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 11: to Cooper Cup. Like Vanda Bean said, as I'm a 1644 01:24:36,400 --> 01:24:40,120 Speaker 11: honest we have number seventeen, Let's build around him. And 1645 01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:44,200 Speaker 11: this is an offensive driven league. Why are we going backwards. 1646 01:24:44,439 --> 01:24:48,799 Speaker 11: Let's build the offense around Josh Allen and lets McDermot 1647 01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:51,040 Speaker 11: work at the players we have. And to be honest 1648 01:24:51,040 --> 01:24:53,879 Speaker 11: with Miles do Gere and you and the Keven Browns, 1649 01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:58,880 Speaker 11: they're a better shot at trading with either Washington Commanders 1650 01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:04,000 Speaker 11: or the Neveland Patia. I think Mike Gable was part 1651 01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:07,120 Speaker 11: of the Cleveland Browns in the past season. 1652 01:25:07,360 --> 01:25:08,080 Speaker 2: It was a consultant. 1653 01:25:10,080 --> 01:25:13,120 Speaker 11: So I think this whole gay thing is out the 1654 01:25:13,200 --> 01:25:14,360 Speaker 11: window in my opinion. 1655 01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:17,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, well we'll see. I mean, stranger things have happened. 1656 01:25:17,880 --> 01:25:20,160 Speaker 2: But I understand why you think that you know a 1657 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:23,960 Speaker 2: team like Washington or maybe even like the Detroit Lions, 1658 01:25:24,200 --> 01:25:26,760 Speaker 2: who have a young quarterback in their pipeline that they 1659 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:28,680 Speaker 2: could offer up to the Browns if they're interested in 1660 01:25:28,720 --> 01:25:29,599 Speaker 2: acquiring quarterback. 1661 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:31,840 Speaker 1: They have Hendon Hooker Minnesota could do it with the 1662 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:35,880 Speaker 1: kid from Michigan that was injured last year it got 1663 01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:37,719 Speaker 1: or they or they could do it with Sam Darnald 1664 01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:42,439 Speaker 1: if they signed Sam Donald or Tag or whatever. That's 1665 01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:45,280 Speaker 1: a possibility. But yeah, there are no question, Ryan, You're 1666 01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:48,439 Speaker 1: you're spot on. There are a handful at least of 1667 01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:52,519 Speaker 1: other teams who are way better positioned to work with Cleveland. 1668 01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:57,000 Speaker 2: Most importantly, Cap Washington's got wise to so. 1669 01:25:57,760 --> 01:26:00,719 Speaker 1: And and you're right, that's a great call because Mike Vrabel, 1670 01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:03,400 Speaker 1: head coach of the Patriots, was in Cleveland last year, 1671 01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:05,960 Speaker 1: so he has seen that building and probably knows the 1672 01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:09,160 Speaker 1: best way to approach them with an offer, Uh, to 1673 01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:13,200 Speaker 1: make it palatable. Uh, there's a lot in that what 1674 01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:15,920 Speaker 1: you're saying, Ryan, and that's that's that's probably as good 1675 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:19,479 Speaker 1: a call as we've gotten because there's so many teams. 1676 01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:24,960 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett has universal appeal to every single team in 1677 01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:28,640 Speaker 1: the league. Everybody wants that dude. And even though he. 1678 01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:32,040 Speaker 2: Would prefer to go to a Super Bowl contender, it's 1679 01:26:32,120 --> 01:26:35,240 Speaker 2: not really his call. He Yeah, it's not really his 1680 01:26:35,439 --> 01:26:37,280 Speaker 2: call because you could say, ah, he wants to go 1681 01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:38,560 Speaker 2: win a Super Bowl. He's not gonna do that in 1682 01:26:38,560 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 2: New England. He's not gonna want to go there too bad. 1683 01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:43,000 Speaker 2: It's not his call, or he just said I trade me. 1684 01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:45,400 Speaker 1: It could it could be the Raiders. It could be 1685 01:26:45,680 --> 01:26:47,720 Speaker 1: Yeah and Washington as well. It could be one of 1686 01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:50,000 Speaker 1: those teams out of the conference, that kind of thing 1687 01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:54,640 Speaker 1: which would appeal to the Browns. You're right, this is 1688 01:26:54,720 --> 01:26:58,439 Speaker 1: a This is about which teams are because this is 1689 01:26:58,520 --> 01:27:01,280 Speaker 1: a massive deal because of his contract. He's in his 1690 01:27:01,360 --> 01:27:04,880 Speaker 1: second contract and he's the defensive player of the year 1691 01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:10,080 Speaker 1: and the compensation you're giving up. It's okay, but it's 1692 01:27:10,080 --> 01:27:12,400 Speaker 1: also on Cleveland, so you're gonna have to make it 1693 01:27:12,520 --> 01:27:13,639 Speaker 1: worth it for Cleveland. 1694 01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:14,479 Speaker 2: There's a lot of layers. 1695 01:27:14,640 --> 01:27:17,080 Speaker 1: There's a lot of layers to it, and only a 1696 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:20,040 Speaker 1: handful of little handful and a half of teams are 1697 01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:23,519 Speaker 1: in a position right now to even entertain it off 1698 01:27:23,600 --> 01:27:24,880 Speaker 1: the top of their head and say, well, we could 1699 01:27:24,880 --> 01:27:25,600 Speaker 1: do this, this, this, and this. 1700 01:27:26,439 --> 01:27:28,360 Speaker 2: Gotta take a break here. We'll close it up in 1701 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:30,040 Speaker 2: just a second here on one Bill's Live, Stay with 1702 01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:48,240 Speaker 2: Us all right, final segment here on a Tuesday, and 1703 01:27:48,600 --> 01:27:50,559 Speaker 2: gonna pop over to the tweet sheet real quick. Here. 1704 01:27:50,560 --> 01:27:52,600 Speaker 2: Tweet Sheet brought to you by Corrigan Moving System is 1705 01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:54,840 Speaker 2: the official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. How 1706 01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 2: much would you give up to add an A plus 1707 01:27:56,360 --> 01:27:59,599 Speaker 2: player to the bills roster? Bro man Dude Guy says 1708 01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:03,400 Speaker 2: can hitering Bean's history of drafting. I'd say the third 1709 01:28:03,479 --> 01:28:06,360 Speaker 2: to seventh rounders are much more valuable than ones and twos. 1710 01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:09,680 Speaker 2: Trade away your firsts and seconds easier said than done. 1711 01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:12,360 Speaker 2: The Bills don't have any threes this year. They have 1712 01:28:12,439 --> 01:28:16,840 Speaker 2: two four's, two six's, and they may get a fifth 1713 01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:20,080 Speaker 2: or two in compensatory picks. So I don't know if 1714 01:28:20,080 --> 01:28:21,800 Speaker 2: you want to get rid of all three of your 1715 01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:25,519 Speaker 2: top picks, two of them, I'll listen to that. You 1716 01:28:25,600 --> 01:28:27,920 Speaker 2: don't you have to give a giveaway. You're not gonna 1717 01:28:27,920 --> 01:28:30,080 Speaker 2: have to do any of that later round pick next 1718 01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:31,479 Speaker 2: year two you're gonna. 1719 01:28:31,240 --> 01:28:32,760 Speaker 1: Have to give up two picks. You're gonna get one 1720 01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:35,759 Speaker 1: back with a later pick exchanger rather throwing a player. 1721 01:28:36,520 --> 01:28:38,200 Speaker 1: You can do that as well. We were talking to 1722 01:28:38,920 --> 01:28:41,200 Speaker 1: what they would probably want is cheap players. So like 1723 01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:43,160 Speaker 1: you're talking about giving them some of the guys you've 1724 01:28:43,240 --> 01:28:48,200 Speaker 1: drafted recently, like like Dwayne Carter or Javon Solomon in 1725 01:28:48,320 --> 01:28:50,519 Speaker 1: the deal because they're making you know, just one hundred 1726 01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:53,439 Speaker 1: thousand rookie contract, right, they're on rookie contracts and they 1727 01:28:53,479 --> 01:28:56,720 Speaker 1: can play, and so you'd get you'd be paying them, 1728 01:28:57,000 --> 01:28:59,439 Speaker 1: you know, very little in return. You get a couple 1729 01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:01,479 Speaker 1: of rosters spots taken up by some guys that can 1730 01:29:01,560 --> 01:29:02,760 Speaker 1: really play, and they're cheap. 1731 01:29:03,160 --> 01:29:05,320 Speaker 2: Connor says, I'm willing to give up first rounders. Let's 1732 01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:07,360 Speaker 2: be honest, Buffalo isn't getting to proven a plus player 1733 01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:08,880 Speaker 2: at the back end of round one, being in my 1734 01:29:08,960 --> 01:29:11,120 Speaker 2: opinion as a master of drafting in the middle rounds, 1735 01:29:11,479 --> 01:29:13,680 Speaker 2: would be okay with letting go of this year and 1736 01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:16,479 Speaker 2: next year's one for Garrett. I don't know if you 1737 01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:17,240 Speaker 2: have to do that too. 1738 01:29:17,760 --> 01:29:21,840 Speaker 1: It'll take one plus a two. Yeah, that's not the issue. 1739 01:29:21,880 --> 01:29:22,799 Speaker 1: That's not the problem. 1740 01:29:23,120 --> 01:29:25,559 Speaker 2: This is going to be a very compelling off season 1741 01:29:25,720 --> 01:29:29,439 Speaker 2: story like where does Garrett go? What is the price? 1742 01:29:29,520 --> 01:29:31,840 Speaker 2: And how does Cleveland fix their cap to make it work? 1743 01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:34,800 Speaker 2: Plenty of discussion on that, I'm sure the rest of 1744 01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:37,519 Speaker 2: the offseason. We'll be back tomorrow, Maddy glab gonna join us. 1745 01:29:37,560 --> 01:29:38,200 Speaker 2: We'll see it. Won
