Maybe we need to get 17 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,279 Speaker 1: a new name for that. I know the league's trying 18 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 1: to push back on it. 19 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 5: It feels very technical because we know the league year 20 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 5: is tomorrow. 21 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 6: There's no tampering. And this makes Andrew Ciciliano very mad. 22 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 6: If you even say those words, no one should those words. 23 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, but yeah. 24 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: Ciciliana is also out here television NFL Network yesterday saying, oh, 25 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: you cannot dip chicken wings in any type of white 26 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:11,919 Speaker 1: song like. 27 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 7: What he's got, the platform he's allowed to espouse his 28 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 7: his views on all topics. 29 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 5: That's dangerous. Okay. 30 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: Well, from the Chris Westling podcast studio, it's around the NFL. 31 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 1: Dan Hands is here with Greg Rosenthal, Mark Sessler. You've 32 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: already heard from all of us. We are probably going 33 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,479 Speaker 1: a little nuts like the Insiders during these long days 34 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 1: and long nights. And now we are back in Los Angeles. 35 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: We touched down here about an hour ago on a 36 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: plane and I would love to say we were put 37 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: into like a almost like a motorcade and taken straight here, 38 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: but it was a mad scramble finding a cab, get 39 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: us in the building. And yet we're here now to 40 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: give you the latest on the league. And I would 41 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: say again, another show coming off a wikily disappointing award 42 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: show that we're gonna get. 43 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 3: To later in the pot. Well, yeah, that's spoiler that 44 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 3: we're here. 45 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 5: We're here, We. 46 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 7: Don't we don't need accolades. We need to go on 47 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 7: you to work, that's all we're asking you. And for 48 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 7: those that think that we've gotten a little too big 49 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 7: for our breeches, like I am an hour and a 50 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 7: half removed from sitting in the very back row of 51 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 7: the plane where at all hours someone's hips are hitting 52 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 7: my ears and my head as they attempt to go 53 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 7: into the lavatory. So like like that, does it sound 54 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 7: like someone that just cares about status and you know material? 55 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 6: I mean, it's always we use the word heroes. But 56 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 6: you know, just a little wink, maybe it's a little 57 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 6: uh big for yourself twist today. It's true though, for 58 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 6: us to get off that plane straight from Austin and 59 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 6: get back into the coal mine. 60 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 3: The news mine's. 61 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: True and it's it's it's funny and I think telling 62 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: and I don't mind telling the audiences because iHeartRadio and 63 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: it was the iHeart Podcast Awards. They they were nice 64 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: enough to send us down to Texas. We go down 65 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: first class, first class. Baby Daddy's sitting there with the 66 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: Miller light, enjoying myself, plenty of room. The guy from 67 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: Workaholics with the curly hair is sitting. 68 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 5: In front of us. 69 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, took a selfie with him. Everything is Everything's hunky, Dorry. 70 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: I think there was something symbolic about going to Texas 71 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: first class, and then on the way to the award show, 72 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: and then a day after being pitiful losers in them 73 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: and spoiler alert, we'll talk about it later. Riding back 74 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: and coach by the toilets. I think there was something 75 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: there to dig into as well. 76 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 7: I think, you know, seeking humility matters as you gain 77 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 7: in age, and that's certainly we discovered it today on 78 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 7: the way back. 79 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: All right, so much to get to So did you 80 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: have to deal with it?

It 95 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 7: is like I'm in the aisle seat you know, you 96 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,919 Speaker 7: lean left a little bit and you get banged in 97 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 7: the ear. 98 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 6: Did not expect like an Americans are turning into a 99 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 6: bunch of fatties. Take from Matt Mark. But there you go, Matt, 100 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 6: I don't know crazy, all right. 101 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 5: Strike that from the show. Let's let's let's dig in. 102 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: Let's dig into everything that's happening, and let's start with 103 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: the big news. I would say, like and hit this 104 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: out round of applause, drop because we saw the Derreck 105 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: Henry the Ravens thing coming. 106 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 5: But that that feels well, I'll. 107 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: Give it to us anyway, just get it, because everybody 108 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: seemed to feel like that was coming, and then of 109 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: course it did happen. Derrick Henry, who will be going 110 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame one day, and barring some 111 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: remarkable late period, you don't think he's. 112 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 5: Going to the Hall of Fame. 113 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 6: I just don't like it when people just put people 114 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 6: in the Hall of Fame. I think he'll be at this. 115 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 5: I bet you like when certain people do. You just 116 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 5: don't like that. I did it. 117 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 7: Justin Graver tweeted today that he believes he'll be a 118 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 7: Hall of Fame. 119 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 1: He is, and we talk about Hall of Fame Gregory, 120 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: we talked about Canton or any sport, like you can't 121 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: tell the story of the league without talking about a 122 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: player at his position like Derrick Henry. 123 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 5: I think is one of the faces of the running 124 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 5: back position in the last year. 125 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 7: Especially in this era, to do what he's done in 126 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 7: this era of like running back by committee. 127 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 6: Maybe it's just I've heard the guys like who have 128 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 6: the votes, their backs always just go up when you 129 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 6: say when you're just putting them into the All Fame. 130 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 6: You know that's on the one All Pro first team, 131 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 6: a couple second teams. I would probably vote for him, 132 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 6: but I'm saying he's not going to be like a 133 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 6: rubber stamp. 134 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 3: He's all right. 135 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: How about we have a couple of big years in 136 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: Baltimore and it won't be a debate because Derek Henry 137 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: is now joining the Ravens two year deal worth up 138 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: to twenty million, So there's nine million guaranteed in his 139 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: first season with Baltimore and that might be all. 140 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 5: He gets guaranteed. 141 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: And if it seems like the money's bigger for the 142 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: running backs this year, I read again, I'll quote him 143 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: all the time, so I read them all the time, 144 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: Bill Barnwell, the running backs are getting good money, but 145 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 1: the salary cap went up, then running backs are actually 146 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: get it. They're they're commanding less of the salary cap 147 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: for these teams percentage wise than ever before. But you know, 148 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 1: there's a lot of money flying around the league now 149 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: because of the cap keeps on going upward. 150 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 5: I would love to know. 151 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: Let's put Eric to work early, Eric, what was the 152 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: NFL salary cap in the twenty ten season when Mark 153 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 1: and I started at the company. 154 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 6: Can I get a guess too?

All right, let's see, I gave 180 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 6: you a nice ballpark. That was nice and got what's 181 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 6: going in the right direction. But so anyway, that's all 182 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 6: beside the point. 183 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: The point is that Derek Henry is a member of 184 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: the Ravens Now and everyone is talking up and rightfully 185 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: so marked this idea that the reigning MVP Lamar Jackson 186 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: is explosive ability as an athlete, and now you add 187 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry to that mix and all that does make 188 00:07:58,640 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: a lot of sense. 189 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 5: I'll call you just a little bit. 190 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: I would I feel like I'd be a little more like, 191 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: oh my god, the league is in a lot of trouble. 192 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: If this was twenty twenty Derek Henry in twenty twenty 193 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. They are a little bit different players and 194 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: entering twenty four, but still an imposing duo and a 195 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: move that makes so much sense for Baltimore. 196 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 5: I love the fit. 197 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 7: I mean, we already we've exclaimed that we wanted this 198 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 7: to happen, and it's to me, it's about the player. 199 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 7: It's like because lesser backs or you know, average to 200 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 7: better than average backs have thrived in that system, whether 201 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 7: it was the past Greg Roman offense or even this year. 202 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 7: And I think when you add Derrick Henry to an 203 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 7: attack where if you're a defender or defensive coordinator, you've 204 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 7: got the one quarterback in the league more than any 205 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 7: other running quarterback outside of Josh Allen, that you need 206 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 7: to be hyper aware of where Lamar Jackson is on 207 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 7: terra firm at all times. And now you add Derrick 208 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 7: Henry to the mix, it's like a double headache. And 209 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 7: I guess part of it is like, I don't believe 210 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 7: that Dereck Henry is going to fade come October November. 211 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 5: I believe he's got another year or two in him. 212 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 7: And I think that makes the Ravens about as hyper 213 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 7: dangerous as they've been in the Lamar Jackson era. 214 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 5: Right. 215 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 6: You can use your rush yards over expected, you can 216 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 6: use your broken tackles, all these fancy stats. I sometimes 217 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 6: use my eyeballs. It tells me Dereck Henry still running well. 218 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 6: Thought it ran well last year. I thought he ran 219 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 6: better than his numbers would show on a per carry basis, 220 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 6: although he's still a workhorse. Still two underd Nady carries 221 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 6: was second in the league in yards, so he can 222 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 6: still get it done. And when I think of the 223 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 6: Ravens offense, you said it well, Mark, it's such a 224 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 6: great place to be for a running back, especially in 225 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 6: the red zone. I mean, all you gotta do is 226 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 6: be a Gus Edwards owner in fantasy leagues and know 227 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 6: when the ball is handed off to Gus Edwards in 228 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 6: the red zone, it he usually just like walks into. 229 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 3: The end zone. No one's really around that. 230 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 6: Now you have Dereck Henry being the one that gets 231 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 6: the ball, and the Ravens are so good at this, 232 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 6: the running back market goes crazy. They just kind of 233 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 6: sit there. They clearly had a price for Dereck Henry, 234 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 6: they weren't going to go above it. And somehow Derrick 235 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 6: Henry signs for like way less money than DeAndre Swift 236 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 6: and not that much more than like Antonio Gibson and 237 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 6: Singletary or Pollard, and like significantly less this year than 238 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 6: Josh Jacobs. I don't quite get how that all worked out, 239 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 6: because to me, running backs are year to year anyways, 240 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 6: all these guys are, and I'd rather have Henry than 241 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 6: any of those guys I just mentioned. 242 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: Well, let's I'm guessing maybe of age and tread on tires, 243 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: and he's not. 244 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 3: A third down guy all the time. But he's a receiver. 245 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 3: You know, I gotten good at that screen game. 246 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:27,959 Speaker 5: I mean, you threw a touchdown against the Ravens in 247 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 5: the playoffs. You can throw the football. 248 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's always I think he's got better as a receiver, 249 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 6: certainly over the last couple of years. 250 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: I would guess a lot of teams, whether it's smart 251 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 1: or not, are scared off by a guy that is 252 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: entering his age thirty season. Just turned thirty in January 253 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: and has over two thousand rushes in his career. I 254 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: remember when he came into the league and much was 255 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: made about how because of Alabama's embarrassment of riches, he 256 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: didn't get used a ton in college in terms of workload. 257 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: But he's certainly been a bell cow guy for many 258 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: years now. So we'll see how much they can get 259 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: out of him, and if he does have a vintage 260 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: type season. 261 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, that is scary. 262 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: And to your point about goal line and the way 263 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: it was for Gus the bus, like maybe Lamar becomes 264 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: a little bit more of a threat running now that 265 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: they have. 266 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 3: This, like you know, great, I think so. 267 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 5: I think. I think it's got Lamar's a winner in 268 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 5: this absolutely. 269 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 6: And you got Patrick Riccard their their fullback, who is 270 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 6: pretty dynamic and gotten into the mix there. They had 271 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 6: an interesting offense. 272 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 5: We bring up Keaton Mitchell by the way. 273 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 6: Keaton Mitchell's coming out, I mean, he was incredible. He's 274 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 6: coming off a major injury. That was a spice rack 275 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 6: special Keaton Mitchell. I don't think he actually said it 276 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 6: on the show, so it doesn't really care. But I 277 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 6: don't think we had him. And then he was texting 278 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 6: it he had he had receipts. I remember he was 279 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 6: very excited about. Right, there's a paper trick, Keaton Mitchell. 280 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 6: And they're a very creative running game. It's very different 281 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 6: than when Greg Roman was there, but very creative mauling. 282 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 6: And I just like when teams lean into having a personality. 283 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 6: It's one of the reasons why the NFL is so great, 284 00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 6: and it's why you guys were on top of it 285 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 6: at this made so much sense. 286 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 3: It was such a Ravens move. 287 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 6: It makes me more excited for whatever primetime game they 288 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 6: put the Ravens in right off the top of the season. 289 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, feel very good about the Ravens, barring catastroph catastrophic injury, 290 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: being near the top of the AFC. And then it 291 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: becomes once again, now what do we do? How do 292 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: we take that step? And maybe Henry is a big 293 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: part of taking that next step once you get to 294 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: January football all right. By the way, the offensive line 295 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: of the Ravens graded out number six overall per PFF 296 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: last year, so he's Henry's also going into a much 297 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: better situation there as well. 298 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 5: Brian Burns. 299 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: We mentioned it off handedly at the end of the 300 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 1: show that there was something percolating out there with some 301 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: reporting around the edge rusher from Carolina and a potential 302 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: move to the Giants, and it has indeed gone down. 303 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: Rap Sheet reported that they make the trade, so Burns 304 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: goes to the Giants in exchange for second and fifth 305 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 1: round picks. Of course, eyebrows shoot up because Burns famously 306 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: was a target of the Rams, who were reportedly looking 307 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: to give up two first rounders or willing to give 308 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: up two first rounders to get Burns. 309 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 3: I believe it was last year or the year before 310 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 3: while they were falling apart, and. 311 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: The management at the time for the Carolina Panthers said 312 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: no thanks. 313 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 5: So it's a bad look obviously. 314 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: I know it's leadership changes, but organizationally, it's a terrible look. 315 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 5: So it goes from two first to a second and 316 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 5: a fifth. 317 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: And of course the Giants then turn around and give 318 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: Burns a big new contract, a five year extension worth 319 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: a maximum one hundred and fifty million, almost eighty eight 320 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 1: million guaranteed. So Greg he's the second highest paid ed 321 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 1: rusher in the edge rusher in the league. He's twenty 322 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: six years old. I have to say this about Burns. 323 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: He's one of those guys you always hear about, and 324 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: he's and this is part he's playing in Charlotte, which 325 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: is the black hole right now. Is he as good 326 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: as you kind of hear? Is he as good as 327 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: they say? Is he worthy of that type of money 328 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: when it comes to edge rushers in football? 329 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 6: I think he has been, but not last year quite 330 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 6: as much. And so he was coming off of an injury, 331 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 6: and his numbers were still good and he graded out 332 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 6: pretty well. Wasn't like it was a bad year. But 333 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 6: to me, coming off that injury, he wasn't exactly the 334 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 6: same player before that. Yeah, I would say he's a 335 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 6: top ten edg rusher. Now he's probably at the bottom 336 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 6: end of that ten, but I'd rather have him then. 337 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 6: Let's say Daniel Hunter, who was in this market, and 338 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 6: he's so young, and he's so quick off the ball. 339 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 6: He always rates really well in those stats of like 340 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 6: pressure within two and a half seconds, and he's been 341 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 6: in a spot where he's always been the man getting 342 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 6: a lot of the attention on a team that's not 343 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 6: often trailing, so he gets like less opportunities than everything, 344 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 6: and just very dynamic. And I don't think you can 345 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 6: get a pass rusher this good for any cheaper than this. 346 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 6: So I think it's a good move for the Giants, 347 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 6: and the Panthers just weren't ready to give him that money. 348 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 3: I don't know it. 349 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 6: On some level, I'm almost confused, because you do need 350 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 6: good players no matter what stage of your rebuild you're in. 351 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 7: If you're the Panthers, well and and and you know 352 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 7: understandably Panthers fans, you know, famous ones and and civilians 353 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 7: are going absolutely nuts over this famous one. There's a 354 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 7: country singer that had like this gigantic tweet about it 355 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 7: was like, is this is this organization just you know, 356 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 7: trying to set itself on fire essentially? But I mean, 357 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 7: I think if you're the Giants, because a day ago 358 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 7: it's all about you. Let's say you botch Saquon Barkley. 359 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 7: You let him go and he went to your rival, 360 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 7: and it's like a bad look for the Giants, who 361 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 7: also lost Xavier McKinney. But I would say that overall, 362 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 7: when you look at what they the value they got 363 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 7: Brian Burns for, which is a Koude talk, compared to 364 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 7: what the Rams were going to spend. They added John 365 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 7: Runyon along the line, Jermaine and mel and you Melanor 366 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 7: and and I don't love Devin Singletary, but to patch 367 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 7: up Saquon like they had a pretty good day like 368 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 7: they are addressing. I think Joe Shane is a quality 369 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 7: GM You're. 370 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 3: Blocks in the building as Daniel Jones's backup. 371 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 7: Well, to me, it's pretty clear that they're they're open 372 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 7: to maybe drafting someone too. But like I just think 373 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 7: that the Giants like it's not as big of a 374 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 7: tire fire as it appeared to be twenty four hours ago. 375 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's why with free agency, everybody's got chill day one. 376 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 5: Everyone wants your team to go totally nuts. 377 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: You just got to let it play out and see 378 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: where things stand at the end of the week. Also 379 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: from the Office of Corrections, we got a Van Ginkle edit. 380 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 5: Yeah we did. I'm just I'm gonna move out of 381 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 5: the way and you guys could discuss. 382 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 6: Well, that was on me. I put him under the Giants. 383 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 6: I'm not sure if that was even ever a report 384 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 6: or just my mistake. Throughout the day, it was always 385 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 6: on that rundown. Van Ginkle's not on the Giants. I mean, 386 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 6: if the only source you have of news in the 387 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 6: NFL is the Around the NFL podcast, and you're a 388 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 6: Giants fan and you just made like your own Van 389 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 6: Ginkle jersey or posters, who knows at home, I have 390 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 6: bad news for you he's a member, then. 391 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: Can I just say also, like I was surprised because 392 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: all we've been hearing on this program is infatuation with 393 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: the Van Gankle. You would think that would not miss 394 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: your radar, Mark that you don't want to tell. 395 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 3: What I am the one that put it down. 396 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 5: I piggybacked off of. 397 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: But Mark was supposed to be the safety net with 398 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: all that. 399 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 7: In my notes, I said, it makes sense that he 400 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 7: repairs with Brian Flores, and then I was like, well, 401 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 7: I must be wrong because he's all the giants And 402 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 7: it's like, no, he went back to pair with Brian Flores, 403 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 7: the Vikings defensive coordinator. Right, And it doesn't it doesn't, like, 404 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 7: you know, decrease my belief in Van Ginkled. 405 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 5: The fact that we made a podcaster. 406 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 6: No, if anything, it's even it's a better fit for 407 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 6: him in Minnesota. 408 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 3: I like what It shook me a little bit, right. 409 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 7: But a true but a true, a true sports show 410 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 7: of the year would take a minute to you know, 411 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 7: say on us. 412 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 6: Well, they maybe wouldn't have made that mistake. Although I 413 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 6: think that's possible. I honestly can't remember in twelve years 414 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 6: of doing this podcast where we had to come back 415 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 6: the next day and we got a free agent signing 416 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 6: just completely offset. 417 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 5: It's pretty good. 418 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: So that that's a first I do before we go. 419 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 5: Shannon Sharp has never made an error when he speaks, 420 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 5: that's true. 421 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 3: Good for him, I do. I'm just short clicking, you know. 422 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 6: One, Congrats to as Mark mentioned, Jermaine Luminor, who's like 423 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 6: a close a friend of our friend, Henry Hodson, product 424 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 6: of the International Player Pathway at age twenty nine, just 425 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 6: got life changing money two years, fourteen million dollars after 426 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 6: he's kind of bounced around in the league. And what 427 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 6: a great moment for him. But I wanted to read 428 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,640 Speaker 6: this tweet. It was from Scott Barrett on Twitter of 429 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 6: just if you combine the Brian's Burns, Bryce Young, and 430 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 6: Christian McCaffrey trades for what the Panthers got and what 431 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 6: they gave up, and this includes the trade they essentially 432 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 6: didn't make with the Rams, which is, you know, kind 433 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,719 Speaker 6: of cheating, but it does make it fun. Here's what 434 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 6: the Panthers traded Caleb Williams, assuming that's the number one 435 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 6: overall Pickture covers or the number one over our pick 436 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 6: Kristin McCaffrey DJ Moore, a top ten pick in the 437 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 6: twenty twenty three draft. That was the Rams pick the 438 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 6: Bears drafted to Tackle, a second round pick in the 439 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 6: twenty twenty three draft, a first round pick in the 440 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 6: twenty twenty four draft and a first round pick in 441 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 6: the twenty twenty five draft. 442 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 3: That's what they passed on. Here is what they got. 443 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:15,439 Speaker 6: Oh No, Bryce Young, one year of Brian Burns, a 444 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 6: defensive a linebacker by the name of DJ Johnson who 445 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 6: was ranked one hundred and twenty fifth at the edge 446 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 6: position by PFF last year, promising in two fifth round picks. 447 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 3: I mean that's an all timer. 448 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 6: That's I mean, that is the series of moves. And 449 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 6: it's like, oh, it's not all the same guy. It's like, 450 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 6: it's your organization. That is a series of moves. As 451 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 6: catastrophic as I can. 452 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 7: I could flip it and say they're a very charitable organization. 453 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 7: They give to others. 454 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: And I think, as always Luke Colmbs has his finger 455 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 1: on the pulse because he was the first one to 456 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 1: point out twenty two hours ago, no first round pick 457 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: for McCaffrey a few years back and now none for Burns. 458 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:52,959 Speaker 3: Are we just fire bombing the whole team here? 459 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: Or what? 460 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 5: Right? Colembs is right? I like that tweet. 461 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 3: I think he's not familiar. 462 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: With Combs's catalog, but I know he's enormously popular. 463 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 6: It is the thirty seventh overall pick in this draft. 464 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 6: You know it's close to being the first rounder. It's 465 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 6: a long road for these all right. 466 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 7: Anyway, somewhere Scott Fitter is driving around like in a 467 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 7: cream colored Porsche down in the South. 468 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 5: It's like you buried one of the thirty. 469 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 3: I'm Daniel Jones. By the way, Drew Locke is. 470 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 6: It's like a medium result of what could have happened 471 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 6: this offseason for your backup. They gave him five million 472 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 6: dollars guaranteed, which tells me, like, he'll he'll play if 473 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 6: you if you're not playing well, Daniel Jones', you're not 474 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 6: ready Drew Lock. 475 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: If I'm starting quarterback in the NFL and they signed 476 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,959 Speaker 1: Drew Lock as my backup, I'm not losing sleep, Okay, 477 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: I mean Drew Lock. 478 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 3: I think Mark's right. They maybe draft someone too, but 479 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 3: maybe if. 480 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 5: You have what are you like? Where are we going 481 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 5: about Lock? 482 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 3: All right? 483 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: In other news, the Cincinnati Bengals and the Joe Mixon marriage. 484 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 5: Is over NFL networks. 485 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 1: He Rapp Report reports that Mix and Who Diego was 486 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,880 Speaker 1: believed that he was going to be waived. Instead, they 487 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: pulled the trigger on a trade so they send him 488 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: to the Houston Texans, so his eighth season in football 489 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: will be with Houston. Of Course, the Texans, as we mentioned, 490 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: lost Devin Singletary to the Giants in free agency. Mixon 491 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 1: joins Damian Pierce in that backfield now, so we'll see 492 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: what we get from mixing mark. On paper, it looks 493 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 1: like a nice upgrade for the Texans. He had over 494 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: fourteen hundred yards last year, twelve touchdowns. In general, looked 495 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: like a guy that had been trending downward and then 496 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: said no, I'm not done yet. 497 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 5: So it's weird that. 498 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: This is when he gets cut but or let go 499 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: by Cincinnati, but Houston takes on the former pro bowler. 500 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 7: It's not obviously not great news for Damian Pierce. They struggled, 501 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 7: He and the rest of that team struggled to run 502 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 7: the ball inside an attack that was so promising through 503 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 7: the air. So I think it's a good landing spot 504 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 7: for Mixon to come in and upgrade. It leaves me 505 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 7: wondering a little bit about the Bengals because we've got 506 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 7: a lot of moving parts in Cincinnati for a team 507 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 7: that offensively was sitting in a Super Bowl window, and 508 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 7: it's like we're looking at wide receivers exiting stage left. 509 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 7: They signed Zach Moss on a two year, eight million 510 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 7: dollar deal to essentially replace Joe Mixon. I think Moss 511 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 7: actually looked really good in Indianapolis at stretches last season, 512 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 7: but that's the first season I really felt that way 513 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 7: about him at all. 514 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm I'm fine with that move for the Bengals. 515 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 6: I think they were clearly surprised that anyone wanted to 516 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 6: trade for Mixon because it was announced as a release. 517 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 7: You thought he was gonna get cut last off season, right, 518 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 7: and it was. 519 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: Fourteen hundred yards and twelve touchdowns. It is not the 520 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 1: work of a bad running back. 521 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 3: No, not bad. 522 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 6: And the text, Look, they know Bobby slowk and Tamiko Ryans. 523 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 6: They know more than I do about what they want 524 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 6: in their running back. I thought he came out of 525 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 6: the gates looking very fresh and like, oh, the old 526 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 6: Joe Mixon's back, and then as the season were on, 527 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 6: that burst isn't there. I always loved Joe Mixon as 528 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 6: a as in terms of his running style, well, you know, 529 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 6: he came out of college and had that questionable background 530 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 6: and end up having a nice career with the Bengals, 531 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 6: but I think his best days are behind him. And 532 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 6: my guess is they would draft someone too, but it's 533 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 6: not a it's not a great running back class. So 534 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 6: you pair mix In probably with like a third round pick, 535 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 6: and Pierce is probably in the rear. There's always one 536 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 6: of those every year, by the way, where like someone 537 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 6: gets announced as a release and someone's watching Free Age 538 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 6: Frenzy at home and Nick Casiro's like, I'd give up 539 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 6: a seventh throws and for Mixing, I don't I like 540 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 6: that contract. 541 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: It's fine still just twenty seven years old. Yeah, but 542 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: he's been around for a while now, and we'll see 543 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: if he could still play the guitar. 544 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 6: You know, Stone's a big pick up for them too. 545 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 6: You know, he's making more than any of these other 546 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 6: guys they signed. 547 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 7: Lamar Jackson tweeted Gino Stone instead essentially, you're gone, You're dead. 548 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 3: You're dead. 549 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 5: There's been a lot of that going on. 550 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: With these but remember we have the conversation about you 551 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: got to be careful, like when your buddy breaks up 552 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: with his girlfriend and you bury her and then they 553 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: get back together, Like what happens if that would have 554 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: fallen through and Gino's coming back. 555 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 3: You're right. 556 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: It was Lamar just basically said you know, I hate you, right, 557 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: we don't advise. I think it was tongue in cheek 558 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: and serious. Also possibly dead serious. We don't know. While 559 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: we're on the Texas just quickly. I do like their 560 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: moves lately. 561 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 6: They've been raiding the Titans, which is gonna be annoying, 562 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,479 Speaker 6: uh Titans fans. As these alsha Here Denico Autry.

He's 573 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 6: probably signed about six exciting. 574 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 3: I'm just saying, like you don't like you think of 575 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins. 576 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 1: Financially active or or actually exciting, I mean exciting, ye way, 577 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 1: to describe. 578 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 6: It, prisky, I mean, my brain is just so off 579 00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 6: right now.

Breaking news, whoa going on here? Breaking news? 583 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 6: The Texans and Daneil Hunter are in business. The Pell 584 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 6: Raiser reports that the four time Pro Bowl defensive end 585 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 6: is signing with Houston. 586 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 5: Wow credit credits rap sheet as well. 587 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: That's the same Hunter coming off a big year in Minnesota. 588 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,679 Speaker 1: He has eighty seven and a half career sacks, and 589 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: he immediately fills the void left by Jonathan Grenard who 590 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: left for the Viking Vikings day earlier. That's a that's 591 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: a that's a nice plug of a hole there in 592 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: quick manner. 593 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 6: Interesting, They just they've chose him over Grenard, who's you know, 594 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 6: he's three or four years older. He's certainly been a 595 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 6: better player overall than Grenard in his career year he's 596 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 6: you know, three four years older, two years, but they're 597 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 6: paying him more than Grenard is making two two years, 598 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 6: forty nine million with forty eight million guaranteed. We haven't 599 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 6: seen many deals like that, that short and that big, 600 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 6: but it's kind of perfect in this c J. Stroud 601 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 6: has a low contract and they have all sorts of 602 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,679 Speaker 6: cap space, so he'll be back off the books before 603 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 6: they even need to really worry about their cap space. 604 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 7: I wouldn't have minded them hanging around with Grenard, who, 605 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 7: like I think, showed so much promise. But if he's departed, 606 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 7: you've gone and found someone to pair with Will Anderson. 607 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 7: And like these teams to try to get by with 608 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 7: one monster pass rusher, it's like you're always going to 609 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 7: be seeing that guy get double on triple team. And 610 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 7: it's like right now, like this trend of getting two 611 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 7: dudes they can kind of free up each other in 612 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 7: the inside of well, I love it. 613 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 3: I mean with. 614 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 7: Wilkins defense yesterday, the Raiders coaching staff gets like everyone 615 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 7: on that defense to play. 616 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,400 Speaker 5: It's kind of niners like Ryan Burns on Thibodeau. 617 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: Yes, it's to be able to pair two studs cause 618 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,360 Speaker 1: there's a lot of trouble for a post team. 619 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 6: They're going to be such a trendy pick. But it's like, oh, 620 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 6: it all makes sense. 621 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 5: C J. 622 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 6: Stroud's their their quarterback, and you look at their defensive 623 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 6: line right now. They added fully Fatsukasi, they added Autry, 624 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 6: and now they add Hunter along with Anderson. I had 625 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 6: mentioned I love the Alisha here signing like Demico Ryans 626 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 6: got as far as they did without really a great defense. 627 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 6: I think they were kind of an opportunistic defense and 628 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 6: now they have a chance to step it. 629 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 3: Up while cj'sdrug gets better. 630 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,919 Speaker 6: That that is something a little challenge trade, though not 631 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 6: exactly a trade. But Vikings say we'll take your guy. 632 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 6: Texans says we'll take your guy. 633 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 5: It's kind of interesting to think about it. 634 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 1: But when you look at the two South divisions, are 635 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: the will the Texans and Falcons come out of this 636 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: offseason as the two biggest favorites to win their division? 637 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 5: Yes? 638 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think the biggest in any division or just no, 639 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 7: in any division? 640 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 3: Wow? 641 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 5: Really I believe. 642 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: I believe the Falcons will be whether or not they 643 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: actually will be the chief No, well, the Chiefs, yeah, 644 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: the Chiefs obviously. 645 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 5: Who the Chiefs got in there, they get the ring. 646 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: Well, the Chargers with hardball will make it a little interesting, 647 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: but you're probably right, the Chiefs probably will come up. 648 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 3: I think you're talking about two teams that have shot 649 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 3: up the right hearts. 650 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 5: But after the Chiefs it might be. 651 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: To me, it might be these two divisions in terms 652 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 1: of like where everyone's going to. 653 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 6: Be pretty wild when you think about that they won 654 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 6: three games a year ago. But you're not wrong, they'll 655 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 6: both be favorites. 656 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: All right, Let's take a break and when we return 657 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: more news.

Just 691 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: wanted him to have a chance, and he kind of 692 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: has exactly in some ways the Baker set up now 693 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: where we don't know and he could they might go 694 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: and draft somebody in April. So I don't want to 695 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: put the cart before the horse totally. But and the 696 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: contract came out at first it was ten million, and 697 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, he's definitely their starter. We don't know 698 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: how much guaranteed money is coming into this, but don't 699 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: you just get the feeling that Kevin O'Connell and he 700 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: obviously likes him a lot, Kyle Shanahan obviously liked him 701 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: a lot. There are people that are champions of this guy, 702 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: and they're they're believing his potential that I would not 703 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: be surprised if O'Connell wants to see if he can 704 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: get that Baker season out of Donald and maybe reset 705 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: the franchise with a depreciated asset who can outperform greatly 706 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:40,479 Speaker 1: on what they signed him for. 707 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, for like the pocket of humans that continue to 708 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 7: champion Darnald, and I think there's reasons to believe. You 709 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 7: look at where he was with the Jets and Panthers 710 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 7: and say, you know, total disorganization. It rite morphine right 711 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 7: into total disorganization where he was actually on the same 712 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 7: team as Baker Mayfield. They went into the hive and 713 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 7: they came back out. Baker's had his chance. This is 714 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 7: the best situation Donald's been in terms of the personnel 715 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 7: around him. 716 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: I don't put it beyond Minnesota. 717 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 7: They are in a rebuild mode to some degree that 718 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 7: like they are sitting at number eleven, it just feels possible, 719 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 7: maybe even likely, that they trade up to get get 720 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 7: up to number five somewhere and get JJ McCarthy and 721 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 7: then it's Donald in a competition. But Donald is actually 722 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 7: I don't know if he's a perfect bridge, but he's 723 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 7: a guy you could you could feel excited about seeing 724 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 7: what he could do because. 725 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: It's that's what happens. But it's certainly possible. They also 726 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: possibility they get Aaron Jones also, so he gets cut 727 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: loose by the Packers at him. 728 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 5: I love I love Kevin O'Connell. 729 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: You know he's there's a reason he's one of the 730 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: most popular coaches in the league in terms of that 731 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: that Union poll and also the results you've seen, so 732 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: I think he has the right coach. He has the 733 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: best wide receiver in the League. He's got a running back. 734 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna have a chip on his shoulder. 735 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: I think it's a pretty good setup if it happens 736 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: for him this time. Yeah, they're not done building. They 737 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: hit a home run last year with their draft. I 738 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: don't know if we're gonna have kg Osbourne back, but 739 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: I love Jordan Addison as a two Hawkinson. 740 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 3: You couldn't. I get it. 741 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 6: The Donald Hive is out there and I when this 742 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 6: news happened, I just my immediate reaction and was how 743 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 6: obnoxious the Donald Hive is going to be for the 744 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 6: next five to six months. And half of our listeners 745 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 6: appeared to respond with with this here Han shout out 746 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 6: and and it wasn't Paul Rudd. 747 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 3: It wasn't. 748 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 6: That's why if I wanted to shout him out, I'm 749 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 6: not into uh, well you do blind items on Twitter? 750 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 6: Well I will, but you understand why there might have 751 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 6: been Yeah, No, I get it, and we do the 752 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 6: show together. Happened to But it's it's bigger than just Dan. 753 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 6: It's it's Daniel Jeremiah had later number one overall, it's 754 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 6: Mina Kimes, who's you know, always thought he was going 755 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 6: to be great it's Nate Tice, who thinks he's this 756 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 6: unhair you know, quarterback talent. It's Bill Barnwell, it's all 757 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 6: the big tape heads and names in the business. They've 758 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 6: always all believed in Sam Darnold. 759 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: And you couldn't even put him in your one oh one, 760 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: and yet you watch him play football, huh. 761 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 3: And it's never really happened for him. 762 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: Because the some people, some people are able to look 763 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: past the circumstances and see even when you look at 764 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: his last time as a start at the Panthers, he 765 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: puts some good tape out there, and some of the 766 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 1: data backs that up, and they see that this is 767 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:28,720 Speaker 1: a guy that has never been in position to succeed. 768 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 5: And there are so many quarterbacks. 769 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 1: There are very few quarterbacks in the league that can 770 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,839 Speaker 1: overcome ineptitude all around them. 771 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 5: He's not one of them. 772 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,359 Speaker 1: So I'm not saying he's going to become a top 773 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: ten quarterback, but I think he has the potential to 774 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: be a guy that's on the right side of the 775 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 1: Dalton scale if if he gets his chance, and I 776 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: hope he does. And I don't think you're not gonna 777 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,800 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be too obnoxious. 778 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 3: Now I'm having fun with it. 779 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: If he if he likes in September, it could be 780 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: an issue. 781 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:57,359 Speaker 5: I like that we get this, that this is a 782 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 5: great way. 783 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: If it happens again, I don't guess the Vikings could 784 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: go out and get a quarterback. 785 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:03,879 Speaker 3: I think they're going to I do too well. 786 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: If he gets his starts this year, it's going to 787 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 1: put to bed something that It's not just me. There 788 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: are other people that have always wondered, and this feels 789 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,839 Speaker 1: like a good, like healthy setup for him. 790 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 7: The one little drama magnet out there that kind of 791 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 7: concerns me a little bit is you've got to keep 792 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 7: Justin Jefferson happy. I mean, he's become one of those 793 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 7: wide receivers where it's like he can't float through his 794 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 7: career with poor quarterback play. 795 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 5: You've moved on from Kirk Cousins. 796 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 7: I'm sure he wasn't happy about that, and so there 797 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 7: is some pressure on Darnold to come in like he's 798 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,719 Speaker 7: now in that thing where like your number one star 799 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 7: diva wide receiver needs to be fed correctly on a 800 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 7: weekly basis, Will you. 801 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 6: Want to be Jefferson's going to get fed right and 802 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 6: you want to be happy just listen to Quessi at 803 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 6: the combine saying that Justin Jefferson deserves and will be 804 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 6: the highest paid player in the league non quarterback, which 805 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 6: is a bold statement. 806 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 3: You know you're only going to say that. 807 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 6: I think if you've already actually made that offer and 808 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,399 Speaker 6: he didn't accept it and you're still like working it out, 809 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 6: I mean that an amazing thing. So there's no way 810 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 6: they are ever going to trade him. And I think 811 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 6: the contract and we haven't seen the details, but whether 812 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 6: the base salary is six eight nine, whatever it is, 813 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 6: to me, that's that actually tells you exactly who he is, 814 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 6: which is an in between and not a backup, not 815 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 6: a starter, a guy you pair with your rookie, certainly 816 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 6: above what Baker got last year, and a lot above 817 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 6: what Sam Donald got last year. You only got three 818 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 6: or four million last year, but someone that's not necessarily 819 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 6: expected to start seventeen games, that the rookie is going 820 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 6: to have a chance likely if they can get one. 821 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 1: And Quessi, you know he's looking at it like, you know, 822 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: we think we have something in here with him potentially, 823 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,760 Speaker 1: and if he can be a league average or better quarterback, 824 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 1: would I rather have Sam Donald for seven or be 825 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: paying Kirk Cousins still forty Like well, I. 826 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 5: Think they did the right thing for their team. Like 827 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 5: we talked about that yesterday. 828 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, when you needed to draft a new guy. Anyways, 829 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 6: I think that that's the smarter move. Aaron Jones is 830 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:57,399 Speaker 6: an interesting signing, just that one day he turns down 831 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,280 Speaker 6: a pay cup from the Packers and then he joins 832 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 6: the rival. Seen this move before, especially with the Packers 833 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,359 Speaker 6: in the Vikings and adds a little juice. I think 834 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 6: he was playing well at the end of last year. 835 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 6: Reportedly he turned down a contract with the Packers that 836 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 6: would have brought his salary down to four million. He 837 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 6: ends up getting six from the Vikings, so he does 838 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 6: come out ahead. He must have known that before he 839 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 6: did it, and now. 840 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 3: He can get a little revenge. 841 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 7: I still remember, like broadcasting a show from home when 842 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 7: he signed that monster deal with the Packers, and like 843 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 7: it just shows you that seven hundred days later just 844 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:28,840 Speaker 7: doesn't matter. 845 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 3: If he's healthy. 846 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 1: He's in a block and change in seven hundred days 847 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,879 Speaker 1: in life, especially in the end. Disturbing by the way 848 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 1: any Van Ginkel Vikings takes about where he fits in 849 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 1: in Fangio's defense, Well, it's Brian Flores who who knew 850 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 1: him so well in Miami. And I think that Van 851 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 1: Ginkle started to get on the radar of the you know, 852 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: the hipster Van Ginkle crowd during that Flora's run in 853 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: Miami and then continued in a different scheme, and it's 854 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:57,760 Speaker 1: like he kind of seems like he could fit in anything. 855 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 6: Certainly with the Vikings not even adding Donald to they 856 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,359 Speaker 6: really are the hipster team this year. So instead of 857 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 6: signing cousins for all that money, they get Donald hipster favorite, 858 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 6: Ben Ginkel, Blake Cashman, Jonathan Grenard. Like they have been, 859 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 6: Aaron Jones had been extremely active here in free agents, 860 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 6: like the Silver it's like the Silver Lake of They're 861 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,439 Speaker 6: not looking at it like we're taking some huge step back. 862 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 6: They're year three under O'Connell. They're they're definitely trying to compete. 863 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 6: They just thought this was the time at quarterback to 864 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 6: make the change, some real team of atn vibes never 865 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 6: doing just a conversation again, Well. 866 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 7: But no, you know what, can I argu Can I 867 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 7: argue why it is a conversation because like we now, 868 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 7: it's like you bounce away from them for like four seasons. 869 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 5: But we made a mistake last year. 870 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 7: But now this would be the year that when we 871 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 7: don't pick them, they thrive or or they start three 872 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 7: and one. We picked them and they lose seven out 873 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 7: of eight, which is typically what they get in get 874 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:49,720 Speaker 7: in early. 875 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 6: It would be good to pick one before the season starts. 876 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 6: Whenever we picked midway through, like they immediately go on 877 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 6: a loose. 878 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 8: I also have a lot of fun Vikings drops, so 879 00:38:58,480 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 8: those are always funded. 880 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's a conversation and Vikings fans are 881 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: screaming right now out their listening device, don't do it, 882 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 1: don't do it. 883 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 5: But it just might make the most sense. 884 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 1: In other news, the Falcons speaking of Kirk Cousins, So 885 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 1: Cousins has a good setup. I think Donald is a 886 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 1: good setup where Cousins used to be. I think Cousins 887 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: has a nice setup in Atlanta because you have Drake 888 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:26,879 Speaker 1: London as your number one, you have Kyle Pitts as 889 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 1: your tight end with number one potential, you have Bjean 890 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: Robinson who has potential to be the best running back 891 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 1: in the league. They did seem to be missing that 892 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:40,439 Speaker 1: second piece after Calvin Ridley disappeared in the wide out game. 893 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 1: How about Darnald Mooney? So he lands three for thirty nine, 894 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: twenty six guaranteed. This is one of my favorite moves 895 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 1: greg of free agency in the first two days. I 896 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: think Mooney was a depreciated assets. He's one year removed 897 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: from a eleven hundred yard season with Chicago, and if 898 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:03,400 Speaker 1: you put him in a functional offense with a pocket 899 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 1: passer with elite skills like Cousins, I think that Mooney 900 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 1: can definitely bounce back and become a real dude in 901 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: that offense. 902 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:12,359 Speaker 5: I love this movie. 903 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 3: I do too. 904 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 6: He's a unique player because there just aren't many players 905 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,760 Speaker 6: that get open consistently deep down the field. 906 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:19,879 Speaker 3: Now, he's not. 907 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,240 Speaker 6: A big player, and you do see him struggle sometimes 908 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 6: in those contested catch situations, but he was in a 909 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,359 Speaker 6: tough spot and there was a lot of chatter of 910 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,239 Speaker 6: like if you just watch the Bears tape, like he's 911 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 6: out there getting open and they don't have anyone. Yeah, 912 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 6: they need a too, they need a three and a 913 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 6: four and a five. They are gonna need to get 914 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 6: active in terms of the draft and just like getting 915 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 6: some rotation players. But he's someone that I think you 916 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 6: can be confident. It takes a full compliment of snaps 917 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,799 Speaker 6: and the interest was there for him. He got a 918 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 6: lot more guaranteed money, for instance, than Gabe Davis. Will 919 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 6: see if he gets more than Calvin Ridley when he 920 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 6: signs tomorrow. Sounds like he's probably gonna sign with the Jaguars, 921 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,320 Speaker 6: by the way, while we're here, because if he signs 922 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 6: with the Jaguars Wednesday, they only have to give up 923 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 6: a third round pick. If he signed re signs with 924 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 6: the Jaguars, which would been today, they have to give 925 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 6: up a second round pick. 926 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 3: And the fact that he's just floating out there means 927 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 3: I don't. 928 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: Think the PA I was trying to make sense of this. 929 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 1: Isn't that an easy trade term to circumvent? Yes, like 930 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 1: why did they doing that? But that seems such an 931 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: easy way to do it. I feel like this was 932 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 1: the Falcons right. This is a why did they put 933 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 1: the language like that where the Jaguars could just easily 934 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 1: just wait an extra day? 935 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 6: It wouldn't surprise me if this is an issue brought 936 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 6: up with like the NFL management counselor whoever decides these 937 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 6: sort of things. Iron it seems a little shady to 938 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 6: me in the Patriots probably aren't gonna getim. 939 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:42,399 Speaker 3: That was a side point. 940 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,879 Speaker 6: But Darnel Mooney, well, two lane connection, by the way, 941 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,800 Speaker 6: two lane GM, Terry Fontano in Atlanta. 942 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 5: Greg, No, you didn't get rid of him, not a 943 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 5: single person. 944 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:54,399 Speaker 6: Two lane wide receiver, Darnell Mooney. It's a little green 945 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:55,439 Speaker 6: wave loyalty there. 946 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 7: This is not a two lane college podcast. But I 947 00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 7: appreciate the fact that you went to school. He hit 948 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 7: one hundred and forty targets from in that thousand yard season. 949 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:04,800 Speaker 7: He's only had one hundred and twenty two over the 950 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 7: last two years, so they I do think that he's 951 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:09,319 Speaker 7: in for a larger role, and they slotted incorrectly with 952 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 7: the Falcons speaking, And I'm glad you went to Tulane. 953 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 5: Greg. 954 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 3: That's no. 955 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,240 Speaker 5: I just mean, wait, you went to Tulane. 956 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 6: I just mean this is probably the last time ever 957 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 6: there's going to be a big time of free agent 958 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 6: signing two lane to Tulane. 959 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 5: Greg. By the way, ever, I mean. 960 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 3: Unless Fontode goes and finds who else. 961 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,800 Speaker 5: We got, don't worry. Don't worry. I won't get into detail. 962 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,920 Speaker 1: But how about some of those mega Greg reveals on 963 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,799 Speaker 1: the way to the airport today about his days at Tulane. WHOA, yeah, 964 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 1: I thought it was confessional. WHOA learned a lot. 965 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,839 Speaker 3: At least, Jack of what stories I have told you guys, 966 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 3: and what. 967 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 1: Explosive I was happy you're here. In other uh yeah, 968 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: hold on to your butts. Patriots talk. They signed Jacoby Brissett, 969 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 1: so they add the veteran quarterback to the room, a 970 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,200 Speaker 1: guy that's you know, everybody loves Jake Briskett. I feel 971 00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,280 Speaker 1: like we've been talking about Jake Briskett on the show 972 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:04,799 Speaker 1: since the very beginning, so much so that the Jake 973 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: Brisket drop that it companies. 974 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,720 Speaker 3: Yes, slice me off a piece of that she has. 975 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 1: Gotten, use that, you know, if Frags could get just 976 00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:20,359 Speaker 1: a slice of royalties, I would say it. Frag seems 977 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 1: like she's pretty good with money with some of these 978 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,800 Speaker 1: trips she takes in the summer. But you probably wouldn't 979 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: say no to more money. Now, little mailbox cash as 980 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 1: they call it, she is. 981 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 5: I've if I've ever critiqued her to her face. 982 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 7: It was like, why aren't you actually becoming a voiceover 983 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,280 Speaker 7: artist in our town here in Hollywood? 984 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: You right be making total bank A lot of competition 985 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,880 Speaker 1: as Zumwhalt. That's a lot before yeah, struck old with 986 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 1: our company. Jay makes seven million a year doing voice 987 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: for us. Uh, it was it was a grind because 988 00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:52,359 Speaker 1: there's so much competition, you know that Zumwalt. I went 989 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 1: with him once. This is years ago, would have been 990 00:43:56,080 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight. We were living in Hollywood, and 991 00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 1: I drove Jayden know how to drive the jot or 992 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 1: he didn't have his license at. 993 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 5: The time, so fourteen, Like. 994 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,719 Speaker 1: Jay's your age around okay, so he's you know, he's 995 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 1: not a kid. So I drove him and we drove 996 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:19,960 Speaker 1: to a studio, like a production studio in Culver City, 997 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: and I just sat in on a recording session where 998 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: Jason had to redub all of Steven Sagal's lines to 999 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 1: some like straight to video made in Korea film or 1000 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 1: made in Russia film at the time. And so just 1001 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 1: imagine watching Jason Zumwolt the Voice of God and around 1002 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:42,640 Speaker 1: the NFL making grunting sounds in the in the voice 1003 00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:44,440 Speaker 1: of Steven Sagal for three hours. 1004 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 5: It was amazing. 1005 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:49,359 Speaker 1: Can we purchase this tape? I want to watch this. 1006 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,359 Speaker 1: So that's the life of a voice over. 1007 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 3: I must need to leave the room right now, just 1008 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 3: too much. 1009 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 1: Also the voice of Roman Bellic and Graham Theft Auto's 1010 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 1: mega fan. No, all right, let's get back on track, 1011 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:07,839 Speaker 1: a little zumwalt, shout out. Jake Briskett is in the room. 1012 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 1: He's a quarterback. Pat's gonna take out quarterback number three overall. 1013 00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: Maybe probably so Jake is in there as a great 1014 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: veteran alongside a young quarterback that is coming in now 1015 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 1: that Mac Jones is out of the picture with Jacksonville. 1016 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 1: They also resigned offensive lineman Michael Whennu. 1017 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 3: I think I got it, you got it Yeah, to 1018 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:27,479 Speaker 3: a three year. 1019 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:30,319 Speaker 1: Fifty seven million dollar contract, thirty eight million guaranteed. That's 1020 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 1: nice money. They also resigned Josh Uce on a one 1021 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:37,279 Speaker 1: year deal. He wanted to stick around. He wanted to 1022 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:41,960 Speaker 1: stay with the Patriots. Calvin Ridley reportedly is looking potentially 1023 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:44,880 Speaker 1: going to give up money that the Patriots want to 1024 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:46,879 Speaker 1: give him to stay in Jacksonville. There's a report out 1025 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 1: there right that the Pats are hot for Ridley, but 1026 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 1: Ridley's not so hot for the Pats, and he wants 1027 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:52,640 Speaker 1: to stay in Jacksonville. 1028 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 5: So Patriots active today. 1029 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 6: Look if their plan here is to bring me back in, 1030 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:01,879 Speaker 6: get me, get me more. 1031 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 3: In fact the way, and the only. 1032 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 1: Reason you're out is because you don't go to the 1033 00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: super Bowl every year now, which is always a little 1034 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 1: bit of an underreported aspect of Greg's not a big fan. 1035 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,400 Speaker 6: As soon as I said it on this show, everyone was. 1036 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 5: Very bad fandom upset. 1037 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 6: It wasn't so much Bail. It's just like we've hit 1038 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 6: the peak. It's you're you're a little less into it. 1039 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:22,439 Speaker 6: Tom Brady's gone. What are you gonna? 1040 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 3: What are you going to replace Tom Brady? 1041 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 6: How about replace him with one of the guys that 1042 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 6: actually started for him, went while he was serving his 1043 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 6: UH suspension back in the day, with some exciting moments 1044 00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 6: as a rookie. I mean, you get Jake Brisket in 1045 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 6: the building and then you get either Drake may or 1046 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 6: Jayden Daniels and you got the perfect quarterback tuitor that 1047 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 6: that is an exciting combo. And I do like they 1048 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 6: kind of they kept. This is very different than the belichicker. 1049 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,239 Speaker 6: They kept the players that I would want them to keep, 1050 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 6: ended up only signing for one year three million. Mike 1051 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 6: car Fullo says he passed up money to stay elsewhere 1052 00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 6: but he probably passed up like second year money and 1053 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:01,880 Speaker 6: he's betty on himself to have a bigger year. But 1054 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,360 Speaker 6: it is interesting to me that these guys want to 1055 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 6: stay with Mayo and I really like a whnu. I mean, 1056 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 6: he's been their best offensive lineman, most consistent versutill. 1057 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 3: Over the last couple of years. So it's like they 1058 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 3: keep the guys they like. They bring in the guy 1059 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 3: like I see you, gird Mayo, see I see what 1060 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 3: you're doing. And their front office it's not just a 1061 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,399 Speaker 3: one man from Elliott Wine, but it's probably not your Mayo. 1062 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:23,760 Speaker 7: But I think Brissette Brissett is lineage Preset's the perfect 1063 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,640 Speaker 7: person for this situation and like he's proven he can 1064 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 7: do this over and over. And it's notable that like 1065 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 7: true Alex van peld is a true offensive coordinator like 1066 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,319 Speaker 7: he was under Stefanski during that year, that he's like 1067 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 7: Presett shine in Cleveland, but he went after Baker and 1068 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 7: or you know, at least reportedly, and he knows what 1069 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 7: he's getting in Jacoby Brissett. Jacoby Brissett is a celebrated 1070 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 7: like Kevin Stefanski called him, like the best teammate's ever 1071 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 7: observed in a locker room. So this Patriots team could 1072 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,560 Speaker 7: use a little bit of that and whatever rookie they draft, 1073 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,640 Speaker 7: and I assume they will. It's the perfect kind of 1074 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 7: path from there here A to B. 1075 00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,320 Speaker 6: And it's similar money to Darnold. I think he's getting 1076 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 6: eight million. I think they are gonna we aren't gonna 1077 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:04,239 Speaker 6: know what they're doing. I'm gonna guess until Draft week 1078 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:08,480 Speaker 6: or Draft night. I think they're they're leaving themselves. Some 1079 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,800 Speaker 6: will go room here. If someone gives them a godfather offer, 1080 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 6: they might say, let's. 1081 00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,359 Speaker 3: Move down, let's pick up a bunch of picks. 1082 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,080 Speaker 6: Who knows, Maybe we'll take a second or third round 1083 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 6: quarterback and we just go with that for now. 1084 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,720 Speaker 3: If we're not in love with who's there at three. 1085 00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 1: If Jake Briskett is one of the best veteran quarterbacks 1086 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 1: you'd want in a room with a young, hotshot rookie, 1087 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 1: I would say among lower on the list would be 1088 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota, who quit on his team a couple of 1089 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:36,879 Speaker 1: years ago, but apparently keeps getting hired, so people must 1090 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,680 Speaker 1: like the guy. I don't get it. The Commanders agree 1091 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:43,720 Speaker 1: to terms with Marcus Mariota on a contract that's worth 1092 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 1: up to six million, which is again, you what has 1093 00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 1: Mariota done in. 1094 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 5: The last eight years in this league? 1095 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:52,400 Speaker 6: If everyone wants anything's to fix these high quarterbacks. 1096 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 1: What is a pretty pick privilege? It's I mean, they 1097 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,319 Speaker 1: called it. So he's the number two pick is going 1098 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,280 Speaker 1: to Washing team. They're gonna obviously take a quarterback. So 1099 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:03,920 Speaker 1: this is bad news for Sam Howell, who went from 1100 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 1: midway through last season. Oh maybe Sam Awl is the 1101 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 1: long term answer too. I don't even know if he's 1102 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,759 Speaker 1: on the team anymore the way this looks. So that's 1103 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,720 Speaker 1: one big move for Washington or a move for Washington. 1104 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: The other one would be Austin Eckler, and this is man, 1105 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 1: it is tough out there for running bas because Eckler 1106 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: went from scoring twenty touchdowns a year for a run 1107 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:28,840 Speaker 1: there too, having a down contract year in twenty twenty 1108 00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:34,400 Speaker 1: three and he signed a two year deal with the Commanders. 1109 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 1: Not a lot of sizzle there, worth up to eleven 1110 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 1: point four to three million, less than five million total 1111 00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four. So that is obviously when Eckler 1112 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 1: was holding out last summer and he was like, look 1113 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:49,399 Speaker 1: at my production, Look who I am. The worst case 1114 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:52,240 Speaker 1: scenario camp true is short of getting a catastrophic injury, 1115 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:54,359 Speaker 1: which is he didn't play as well, the tape didn't 1116 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: look hot, and then he didn't get paid very well. 1117 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:57,959 Speaker 3: But at least he got a job. Could have been worse. 1118 00:49:57,960 --> 00:49:59,360 Speaker 1: There were guys last year, if you remember, like the 1119 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:01,799 Speaker 1: Dalvin Cooks the world, that hung out all through the 1120 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 1: offseason looking for a job. 1121 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 3: Eckler gets paid, but not what he wanted. 1122 00:50:05,800 --> 00:50:08,440 Speaker 7: I mean, Antonio Gibson out the door to New England. 1123 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,239 Speaker 5: So you pair him with Brian Robinson. 1124 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 7: I think, you know, reading some stuff that Deckler put 1125 00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 7: out there today on he's pretty active on social media, 1126 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 7: seems highly motivated to kind of wipe away the narrative 1127 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 7: from last year and what happened on a bad Chargers team. 1128 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 5: I don't hate it. 1129 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:23,840 Speaker 7: And this is a team also from a you know, 1130 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:27,880 Speaker 7: from the Mariota standpoint. Absolutely, they're drafting a quarterback just 1131 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:30,239 Speaker 7: I mean, I'm just assuming that without any question at 1132 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:33,479 Speaker 7: this point. And there's whispers that Howell if someone else 1133 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 7: wanted to make something out of them, that they would 1134 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:36,280 Speaker 7: maybe move. 1135 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 3: Howell, which to me, he'd be a fun backup. 1136 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:40,520 Speaker 1: I think so too. 1137 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 6: To add to the mix, look, motivation has never been 1138 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 6: an issue for Austin Eckler. That dude is max out 1139 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,719 Speaker 6: his career in a way that very few players his 1140 00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:53,319 Speaker 6: side undrafted. I mean, he's had an incredible career. So 1141 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,239 Speaker 6: I don't know if Trian Harder's got to get it 1142 00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:00,320 Speaker 6: done for him. I'm not excited about that backfield. Claire 1143 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 6: and Brian Robinson, they've been incredibly active.

They go and steal that 1173 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 6: two pick and they're sitting pretty. 1174 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,600 Speaker 1: That's stiff kicker, yours pipe's won with the game on 1175 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 1: the line after. 1176 00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:29,960 Speaker 5: Like missing fourteen kicks earlier. 1177 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,560 Speaker 3: That's right. It does annoy me. 1178 00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: I wish they had their welcome welcome to how the 1179 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:37,759 Speaker 1: other half lived, Greg, it's not fun, all right? 1180 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 5: One more before we take a break. 1181 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 1: Patrick Queen, the linebacker, former first round pick of the 1182 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:46,680 Speaker 1: Ravens who had a breakout season last year. Once Rokwan 1183 00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,360 Speaker 1: Smith hit the scene in Baltimore, he was able to 1184 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: leverage that not into a new deal with the Ravens, 1185 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:56,719 Speaker 1: but a contract with the rival Steelers three years worth. 1186 00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:58,320 Speaker 5: Up to forty one million. 1187 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what the real money is, but Queen 1188 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:03,880 Speaker 1: goes to Pittsburgh another one mark that just makes sense. 1189 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 7: Well, it's too if there's two teams I could pick 1190 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:09,840 Speaker 7: the league wide to make, you know, good use of 1191 00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:12,400 Speaker 7: these signings, Like it's it's Pittsburgh and it's the Ravens. 1192 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 7: It does feel like this is the free agency mailstrom 1193 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 7: where like you're getting a lot of like player goes 1194 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:21,719 Speaker 7: from A to rival B and like there's some juicy storylines. 1195 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:23,799 Speaker 7: You can already see that, Like when you know when 1196 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,680 Speaker 7: Patrick Queen's lined up against the Ravens and Lamar Jackson 1197 00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 7: in like Week three on Sunday Night Football, that's your 1198 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:30,439 Speaker 7: storyline going in there. 1199 00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:34,080 Speaker 6: This this Steelers regime has really struggled to fix this 1200 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,799 Speaker 6: inside linebacker position, something they used to be known for, 1201 00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 6: and they've just been throwing good money after bad. They 1202 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 6: finally got a little more aggressive. They're usually not too 1203 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 6: aggressive in free agency, but the real money really is 1204 00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 6: like a one year, fourteen million dollar contract. I think 1205 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,359 Speaker 6: Patrick Queen would be high on the list of like 1206 00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:54,879 Speaker 6: guys who were most disappointed by the market he had 1207 00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:58,680 Speaker 6: when he got to free agency, Jordan Brooks, Frankie Luvu. 1208 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 6: They got better, but really all the off ball linebackers, 1209 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:03,719 Speaker 6: none of them like hit it too big. 1210 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,279 Speaker 5: All right, let's take another break and we will continue on. 1211 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,640 Speaker 6: Before we take a break, let's do a little breaking 1212 00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:10,040 Speaker 6: news perfectly time. 1213 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:10,960 Speaker 3: Breaking bangs. 1214 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:12,720 Speaker 5: Bangs. 1215 00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 6: The Steelers are sending wide receiver Deontay Johnson to the 1216 00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:23,920 Speaker 6: Caroline Panther. Hey, Bryce Young actually has a wide receiver. 1217 00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 5: That's good. 1218 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 1: That's a good trade. I don't even know what the 1219 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 1: terms are. 1220 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:27,120 Speaker 3: We don't. 1221 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:30,920 Speaker 1: Nobody knows yet. Man, the Panthers need juice. Adam Thielen 1222 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:34,600 Speaker 1: he for you know, all the tread on his tires. 1223 00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:36,399 Speaker 1: He put together a nice season for them, but they 1224 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,560 Speaker 1: obviously need to fill the DJ Moore hole. And you know, 1225 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:42,600 Speaker 1: does Deontay Johnson Is he a knucklehead? 1226 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 9: Like? 1227 00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 1: Is he a guy that you could trust to be 1228 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:48,480 Speaker 1: your your down to down number one dude and anchor 1229 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:49,240 Speaker 1: of the offense. 1230 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,239 Speaker 6: We'll see, But he certainly has a talent. Now he 1231 00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:53,520 Speaker 6: gets open and we've got an update. It is a 1232 00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:57,800 Speaker 6: quite interesting trade, A player for player trade Deontay Johnson 1233 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:03,880 Speaker 6: and a late pick. I think it's pick two forty 1234 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 6: what round is that sixth? 1235 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 3: Probably? 1236 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:09,840 Speaker 6: And then the Steelers get Dante Jackson, very confusing Deontay 1237 00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:12,400 Speaker 6: Johnson for Dante Jackson. We give him a new name too, 1238 00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 6: Dante Jackson, who is a kind of an up and 1239 00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:17,799 Speaker 6: down cornerback, but good when he's good, been good. And 1240 00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:23,359 Speaker 6: pick one seventy two, So the Steelers get one seventy eight, 1241 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,240 Speaker 6: they get a Day three move up in the draft, 1242 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:28,880 Speaker 6: and they get a cornerback in exchange for Deontay Johnson. 1243 00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 3: I mean cornerbacks. They need cornerbacks in Pittsburgh. I get it. 1244 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,880 Speaker 7: I think this seems Dante Jackson fits for the Steelers. 1245 00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:36,439 Speaker 7: I really think he does. 1246 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:38,520 Speaker 6: It looks like a nasty sort of thing, really like 1247 00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:39,400 Speaker 6: Deontay Johnson. 1248 00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:41,279 Speaker 7: I mean that's I like Johnson, But I think if 1249 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,760 Speaker 7: you're if you're inside the Steelers like world. Deontay Johnson 1250 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 7: had those weeks last year where he was, you know, 1251 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,760 Speaker 7: accused of not putting in full effort, and I wonder 1252 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 7: if he burned Bridges. I mean, you know, he's here right, 1253 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:53,279 Speaker 7: talked about in trades for a while, so it's like. 1254 00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 1: But it's bitterly disappointing because he's so talented. But he 1255 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:00,719 Speaker 1: I mean, his act obviously is what got him sent 1256 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 1: out of town, you know, and geez that. So the 1257 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,120 Speaker 1: Panthers are taking a little bit of a roll the 1258 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,439 Speaker 1: dice there in terms of who you're bringing in. 1259 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 5: But if it works, I think it's a good trade. 1260 00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:12,919 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1261 00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:16,959 Speaker 6: They It is so hard to get wide receivers, which 1262 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:19,440 Speaker 6: is why throwing DJ more of all people into that 1263 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 6: trade I think really hurt Carolina. 1264 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 3: They felt. 1265 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 6: I mean, they need they need two more, but you 1266 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:26,799 Speaker 6: can't start getting two to three good ones without one first. 1267 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 6: And he he gets open. I mean, he is a 1268 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:32,279 Speaker 6: reception perception favorite. We've got another bit of breaking news. 1269 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 6: I think it's not it's not Carolina, but it is 1270 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:40,520 Speaker 6: a fun one. You know, during the show, the top 1271 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 6: guy left on my top one oh one, daneil Hunter, 1272 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:46,400 Speaker 6: he got taken off the guard. Now it's the second, 1273 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 6: the number two guy on the list or number three, 1274 00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 6: Chauncey Gardner. Johnson is returning to the Eagles on a 1275 00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 6: three year deal. 1276 00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 5: Isn't that nice? Up to took a little one year break. 1277 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,399 Speaker 5: There you go. Eagles are like, ooops, we messed up. 1278 00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:00,000 Speaker 5: Come home. 1279 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:03,040 Speaker 6: They do feel like they messed up. I think with 1280 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,960 Speaker 6: that James Bradbury contract they could have just given that 1281 00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:07,960 Speaker 6: money to Chauncey Gardner Johnson last year. 1282 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 1: But oh well, isn't a nice one. You could correct 1283 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:12,040 Speaker 1: your error like that, like us with Van Ginkel. 1284 00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,879 Speaker 6: How many he's only been He's only twenty six years old, 1285 00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 6: and it he has bounced around. 1286 00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:19,120 Speaker 3: But that was a perfect spot for them. 1287 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,920 Speaker 6: And their secondary was rough last year, like as exciting 1288 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:26,360 Speaker 6: as they were or they look offensively. I still have 1289 00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 6: questions about the defense, but this helps. 1290 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,440 Speaker 1: Yes, that late season collapse was almost unique, like you 1291 00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:33,760 Speaker 1: have not seen anything like that from where they started 1292 00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,080 Speaker 1: to where they finished. So changes are being made in 1293 00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:38,080 Speaker 1: Philly and we'll see what happens. Let's take a break 1294 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:43,480 Speaker 1: and we will finish out the news and now another 1295 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 1: edition of NFL Media Insiders, Friends or Foes.

It's a good 1311 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:35,120 Speaker 1: app so far. 1312 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:39,000 Speaker 2: You know, Andrew if I May, is usually the most 1313 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 2: buttoned up, the most on the money of us all. 1314 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 9: So when even he is just. 1315 00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:47,160 Speaker 2: Like my bye by bad, I thought it was, you know, 1316 00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:50,200 Speaker 2: it's coming unraveled, and and that that worries me because 1317 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:51,400 Speaker 2: we still got a couple of days left. 1318 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 3: I mean, Josie Jewel got us off the tracks. 1319 00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, Josie on the tracks. 1320 00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,280 Speaker 7: The You almost have to say that our critique yesterday 1321 00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:03,360 Speaker 7: on various platforms. 1322 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:04,920 Speaker 1: I'll say hour you mean, well, no, I made it 1323 00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:07,000 Speaker 1: a little personal, and I was I was taking I. 1324 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 7: Wouldn't have gone there like out of pocket, but when 1325 00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 7: the topic came up, I went down the road. But 1326 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:13,440 Speaker 7: it's like it was a bit of a flashpoint. Focus 1327 00:59:13,480 --> 00:59:16,720 Speaker 7: on some level a media like an understated because it 1328 00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:18,320 Speaker 7: just seems to be growing and growing. 1329 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:20,840 Speaker 6: Like, wait, you're saying this could be the beginning of 1330 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:21,800 Speaker 6: the end for the inside. 1331 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:25,160 Speaker 7: No, I'm just saying that last it's twenty four hours later, 1332 00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:27,080 Speaker 7: and that tension seems to be only rising. 1333 00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:27,480 Speaker 5: Right. 1334 00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:29,919 Speaker 1: You could also say an entire segment on the show 1335 00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:34,080 Speaker 1: called NFL Media Insiders, friends or foes might be teasing 1336 00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 1: this as well. 1337 00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:36,720 Speaker 5: That's true. 1338 00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 3: It's a good point. 1339 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 5: It's a concern. 1340 00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:42,440 Speaker 1: It would be good to do a flashpoint focus on 1341 00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:50,320 Speaker 1: the insiders and just have one of them one. 1342 00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 5: Mike g unvarnished. 1343 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:52,280 Speaker 7: But Mike G also like like what I love is 1344 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 7: he's willing to be just a tad remove from some 1345 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,200 Speaker 7: of the deeper what it seems to be going on 1346 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:59,160 Speaker 7: there from what we can tell, and he could give us, 1347 00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:01,200 Speaker 7: you know, not a one sided opinion, but sort of. 1348 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:02,880 Speaker 5: Maybe we can get my maybe we'll get make on 1349 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 5: next week. I'm sure he'd be to discuss the status. 1350 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 5: I think that actually would. He might get a text 1351 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 5: about it after the appearance. But all right, let's get 1352 01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:14,240 Speaker 5: back into it. 1353 01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:21,360 Speaker 1: Uh bye, By so yes, Tyrod Taylor leaves the Giants. 1354 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 1: He gets replaced by Drew Locke. The Jets ruined their 1355 01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:30,280 Speaker 1: season last year. That's not a That's not an overstatement 1356 01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:36,240 Speaker 1: by not addressing quarterback behind Aaron Rodgers, by by going 1357 01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:39,360 Speaker 1: with Zach Wilson, who had given them no indication of 1358 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:42,640 Speaker 1: an ability to play starting quarterback in the NFL at 1359 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:44,720 Speaker 1: a high level through two years, to then say he 1360 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:48,800 Speaker 1: was the backup and in only the Jets moment Rogers 1361 01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:50,680 Speaker 1: blows his achilles, We're gonna get to Rogers in a 1362 01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:53,720 Speaker 1: second on the fourth play of the season. Wilson is 1363 01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:55,760 Speaker 1: a train wreck. They end up using a bunch of quarterbacks. 1364 01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:59,959 Speaker 1: Season ruined with the great defense. Tyrod Taylor now joins 1365 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 1: the Fray, and Tyrod Taylor is like the backups backup 1366 01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:09,280 Speaker 1: like he is if Jake briskett Is is president of 1367 01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:12,600 Speaker 1: the Backups Club, Tyrod Taylor might be vice president like 1368 01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:16,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers might be vice president soon. But like I 1369 01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:21,440 Speaker 1: love like Tyrod is a backup, I don't like durability concerns. 1370 01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 5: We already have a forty year old quarterback. 1371 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:26,320 Speaker 1: But I can't say anything else other than okay, you've 1372 01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:30,720 Speaker 1: professionally filled the backup spot this year. Unlike last year 1373 01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:34,720 Speaker 1: Joe Douglas. So from that, from that standpoint, good job 1374 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 1: by the Jets. They also address their offensive line in 1375 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:41,000 Speaker 1: some way. Ravens guard John Simpson, who is a starter 1376 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 1: for all nineteen games for them last year, he gets 1377 01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 1: signed to a contract, so he immediately becomes one of 1378 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 1: their starting guards. And they also take a flyer on 1379 01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,200 Speaker 1: former forty nine ers first round picture von kin Law, 1380 01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 1: who signs a one year deal with the team. 1381 01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:00,720 Speaker 6: Love Tyrod loved the bizarre transformation he made love the 1382 01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 6: Jets agreeing with me and not Nick Westling, who who 1383 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:05,600 Speaker 6: thought Tyrod was way too high in the ranks. He 1384 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:08,400 Speaker 6: was like eighty something. It's like, calm down Tyrod used 1385 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:11,280 Speaker 6: to be. You know, in my mind, Tyrod was always 1386 01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 6: overly safe, Like he can run and he's got a 1387 01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 6: good arm, but he's just like very conservative. And then 1388 01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 6: when he came in last year, he was like, this 1389 01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 6: career might be ending soon. I'm gonna turn into Ryan 1390 01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 6: Freakin Fitzpatrick. He led the NFL by far according to 1391 01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 6: PFF in big time throw rate. 1392 01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:29,520 Speaker 5: He was slinging the pill. 1393 01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:32,600 Speaker 6: Seventeen big time throws in very limited sample size. But 1394 01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:35,760 Speaker 6: you know, if you if it's anyone over fifty dropbacks 1395 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,440 Speaker 6: in league he had. He had a couple hundred, easily 1396 01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:41,040 Speaker 6: number one. And it's a good list too. It's Stafford, 1397 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:43,600 Speaker 6: Josh Allen, Gino, Dak, you know, Trevor Lawrence. 1398 01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:47,840 Speaker 3: Like it's a good list. He's slaying it and and he's. 1399 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:50,760 Speaker 7: Like the hoole Zach Wilson thing beyond Like his actual play, 1400 01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,840 Speaker 7: it was just a weekly storyline and there was drama 1401 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 7: and then at some point he and Rodgers you're hearing 1402 01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:58,080 Speaker 7: about worn as close as you thought. It's like Tyrod 1403 01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:00,280 Speaker 7: Taylor brings zero drama and the Jets could you a 1404 01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:02,560 Speaker 7: player like that? Just he's not going to get into 1405 01:03:02,600 --> 01:03:04,439 Speaker 7: the headlines as far as we know. Probably he will, 1406 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 7: that's how it works. But he also seems to get 1407 01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 7: hurt like well, right, historability is like is a continuing 1408 01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:11,240 Speaker 7: narrative everywhere he goes. 1409 01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:12,960 Speaker 5: But hopefully he doesn't have to play at all. 1410 01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:16,960 Speaker 6: And John Simpson a nice little moller you know, will 1411 01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:20,440 Speaker 6: blow up, blow up by your opposing defensive lineman with 1412 01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:22,120 Speaker 6: some splash blocks some. 1413 01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 1: Of his his pop the hood analytics suggest he is 1414 01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:27,600 Speaker 1: after an up and down star to his career, maybe 1415 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:31,240 Speaker 1: a good signing, so I hope. So now Aaron Rodgers 1416 01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 1: is still the QB one. Ostensibly he hasn't really played 1417 01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:37,680 Speaker 1: for them yet, but we get everything else with Aaron Rodgers, 1418 01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:40,240 Speaker 1: including this from the New York Times. Hit it Eric 1419 01:03:41,160 --> 01:03:43,600 Speaker 1: the New York Times. This is the headline that broke, 1420 01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:46,000 Speaker 1: That broke. About an hour and a half ago, Aaron 1421 01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:51,640 Speaker 1: Rodgers and Jesse Ventura top RFK Junior's list for running mate. 1422 01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:55,920 Speaker 5: Here's the lead by Rebecca Davis O'Brien. Robert F. 1423 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,320 Speaker 1: Kennedy Junior has recently approached the NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers 1424 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:03,040 Speaker 1: and the former min governor and professional wrestler Jesse Ventura 1425 01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:06,600 Speaker 1: about serving as his running mate on an independent presidential ticket, 1426 01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:10,320 Speaker 1: and both have welcomed the overtures. Two people familiar with 1427 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:13,720 Speaker 1: the discussions said, we have a lot of overseas listeners. 1428 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 1: It is almost a certainty that it will be Donald 1429 01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:21,160 Speaker 1: Trump versus Joe Biden in the November presidential election. 1430 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,400 Speaker 5: One of those two guys will most likely become president. 1431 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:27,640 Speaker 1: RFK who seems like a nut and is a big 1432 01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 1: anti vaxxer and all that other stuff, and I don't 1433 01:04:31,240 --> 01:04:33,960 Speaker 1: even care enough. Don't come at me with Actually RFK 1434 01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,600 Speaker 1: is good. I don't care. Just take it somewhere else. 1435 01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:42,440 Speaker 1: He will. He's the ross perrot of this election for 1436 01:04:42,520 --> 01:04:45,120 Speaker 1: people that are old enough. Can he take votes away 1437 01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:48,680 Speaker 1: from one of these the Democrat of the Republican So 1438 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,440 Speaker 1: he does potentially have a big role in this election. 1439 01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:54,880 Speaker 1: And the fact that Aaron Rodgers potentially is mulling the 1440 01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:58,720 Speaker 1: idea of being vice president tells me again, and let 1441 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:00,880 Speaker 1: you know that I'm on record. I've said I said 1442 01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:02,520 Speaker 1: it a month ago on the show. I feel terribly 1443 01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:05,400 Speaker 1: about this upcoming Jets season. Aaron Rodgers who came out 1444 01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,600 Speaker 1: and said after the year, no more distractions. Now he's 1445 01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:12,600 Speaker 1: in talks to be a vice presidential candidate. And by 1446 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:15,400 Speaker 1: the way, when Mark is the president, but right in. 1447 01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:17,840 Speaker 7: The heart of the NFL season and when it takes 1448 01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:19,440 Speaker 7: months and months and hours and hunt. 1449 01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:23,520 Speaker 1: This is the very beating heart of the election process, 1450 01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:25,240 Speaker 1: when you're on the run up to the election and 1451 01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:27,600 Speaker 1: you're traveling criss crossing the country. 1452 01:05:27,280 --> 01:05:30,480 Speaker 3: The autumn into late autumn, and then you remember October. 1453 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:33,800 Speaker 1: So I mean, Aaron, come back to us number one 1454 01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:37,439 Speaker 1: for even kind of allowing this to get to this point. 1455 01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 1: But I'm sure he will explain it in a way 1456 01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 1: that makes sense to him. The fact that it's coming 1457 01:05:42,040 --> 01:05:44,120 Speaker 1: from The Times and is reported by all the highest 1458 01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:46,960 Speaker 1: or most respected media outlets. 1459 01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:48,400 Speaker 3: He said it. 1460 01:05:48,720 --> 01:05:51,920 Speaker 6: He's on record saying that that those are those are 1461 01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:53,520 Speaker 6: at the top of his list, and he's talking to 1462 01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:56,960 Speaker 6: Rogers consistently. Rogers, you know, just a few years ago 1463 01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:00,320 Speaker 6: was quoted scene I'm an athlete, not an activist, and 1464 01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:03,560 Speaker 6: you know, said he didn't want to be treated that way. 1465 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:07,520 Speaker 6: Now he has a legitimate chance to be the vice 1466 01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:12,440 Speaker 6: presidential candidate. And this isn't just like like lately in 1467 01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:15,120 Speaker 6: American politics, when there's a third or fourth party on 1468 01:06:15,160 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 6: the ballot, they don't. 1469 01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:19,120 Speaker 3: Get any meaningful vote. 1470 01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:21,560 Speaker 6: It can be anywhere from like less than one percent 1471 01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:23,200 Speaker 6: to you know, two to three percent something like that. 1472 01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:26,360 Speaker 6: At least right now, you know, it appears that RFK 1473 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:29,680 Speaker 6: Junior has a chance to get like a side, not 1474 01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:31,640 Speaker 6: a chance to win, but a chance to get a 1475 01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:34,440 Speaker 6: sizeable part of the electorate to vote for him anywhere 1476 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,320 Speaker 6: you know, from ten to twenty percent something like that, 1477 01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,120 Speaker 6: and Aaron Rodgers might be on that ticket. 1478 01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:40,360 Speaker 1: Can't fix stupid. 1479 01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:41,880 Speaker 3: I can't imagine this was actually. 1480 01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:44,360 Speaker 7: He's married to Cheryl Curb your Indea, yeah, something, I 1481 01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:46,240 Speaker 7: think that she'd be We probably should stop talking. 1482 01:06:46,280 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be terribly I mean, I'd be disappointed by 1483 01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:56,120 Speaker 1: the overall boondoggle when it was over. But if Rogers 1484 01:06:56,160 --> 01:07:02,440 Speaker 1: decided to retire tomorrow to take this run seriously with Kennedy, 1485 01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:04,800 Speaker 1: I don't think that would be the worst thing for 1486 01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:05,320 Speaker 1: the Jets. 1487 01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:08,880 Speaker 6: What if he runs ani plays for the Jets.

And there's no group that's more annoying I get. 1507 01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:09,600 Speaker 6: I guess maybe the Aaron Rodgers bros. They're all is one. 1508 01:08:10,120 --> 01:08:15,360 Speaker 6: Lions gave up, let's move on. Okay, the Lions got 1509 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:18,800 Speaker 6: Carlton Davis. To receive Carlton. 1510 01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 1: Davis, they gave up a twenty twenty four third round 1511 01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:25,320 Speaker 1: pick and two six So that's a nice move by Detroit, 1512 01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:28,560 Speaker 1: who really need to make upgrades to their defense and 1513 01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:33,160 Speaker 1: Davis helps there. They also added Marcus Davenport and cornerback 1514 01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:37,559 Speaker 1: A Meek Robertson, so the operation in Detroit making moves 1515 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:37,920 Speaker 1: as well. 1516 01:08:38,360 --> 01:08:42,040 Speaker 6: Little surprising that the Bucks did this, but it just 1517 01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:44,640 Speaker 6: was kind of a cap move. Carlton Davis is a 1518 01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:47,400 Speaker 6: number one type of cornerback when he's right, but like 1519 01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:50,360 Speaker 6: so many cornerbacks, it's a tough position to like. Pick 1520 01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:52,240 Speaker 6: a guy long term, he'll look like a pro bowler 1521 01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:54,200 Speaker 6: one year and kind of disappoint the next. He's had 1522 01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:56,760 Speaker 6: some injury issues, but little surprising. The Bucks gave up 1523 01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:57,120 Speaker 6: on him, Like. 1524 01:08:57,439 --> 01:09:01,840 Speaker 5: If Aaron Rodgers retired, my choice have to be soon. 1525 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:03,840 Speaker 1: By the way, he'd have to get like the guaranteed 1526 01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:07,160 Speaker 1: money goes away, right, Like that goes back into the coffers. 1527 01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:08,960 Speaker 7: I would say one thing about him. I think he 1528 01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:11,519 Speaker 7: would not try to fleece the Jets financially. 1529 01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 1: I think he would. 1530 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:14,200 Speaker 6: He says he had some interview. He says he wants 1531 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:16,720 Speaker 6: to play four more years lately recently. 1532 01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:17,880 Speaker 5: No, he's talking about being president.

He was much 1548 01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:04,200 Speaker 1: more than that pro bowler. 1549 01:10:04,240 --> 01:10:04,679 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. 1550 01:10:04,760 --> 01:10:06,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, like an anchor to a super Bowl winning team. 1551 01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:09,720 Speaker 7: So X marks the spot on a bad opinion by 1552 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:11,200 Speaker 7: me have a Decadey's. 1553 01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:12,960 Speaker 5: A nice signing a bad opinion. 1554 01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:17,280 Speaker 1: I also would say, is let's team up Jameis Winston 1555 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,120 Speaker 1: with Deshaun Watson on the same in the same quarterback room. 1556 01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:22,599 Speaker 3: Did you read what Jameis Winston said? 1557 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:24,640 Speaker 5: No, so he basically. 1558 01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:30,360 Speaker 7: He had other offers, and he said he wants to 1559 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:32,800 Speaker 7: go to Cleveland specifically, he feels like it's almost like 1560 01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:35,800 Speaker 7: a spiritual calling to go and work directly with the 1561 01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:39,360 Speaker 7: Shawn Watson.

I can't get over. 1580 01:11:26,840 --> 01:11:30,479 Speaker 1: And that's amazing that he's going to help Deshaun Watson 1581 01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:31,160 Speaker 1: see the light. 1582 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:34,559 Speaker 6: Getting good backup money, which does to me indicate, Look, 1583 01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:36,200 Speaker 6: they wanted they wanted something that could play. 1584 01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 1: Sorry, they had the best backup in the league last 1585 01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:40,559 Speaker 1: year and he's a free agent. His name is Joe Flacco. 1586 01:11:40,720 --> 01:11:42,680 Speaker 7: I'm with you, I think, but I think we've talked this, 1587 01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:44,720 Speaker 7: like I think the Joe Flacco presence and what he 1588 01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:47,519 Speaker 7: created last year was probably like, is this too much 1589 01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:50,559 Speaker 7: of a distraction if wattraction continues to. 1590 01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:54,439 Speaker 3: Awesome? I agree with you. 1591 01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:56,880 Speaker 6: I think I just I think that's an element here 1592 01:11:56,960 --> 01:11:59,880 Speaker 6: between the fans and maybe the locker room and whatnot. 1593 01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:01,800 Speaker 1: They just so we bring in a known knucklehead and 1594 01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:03,000 Speaker 1: jamis that no one will have. 1595 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:05,040 Speaker 3: I don't think that's okay. Now I understand. 1596 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:08,120 Speaker 6: I mean, he is a no knucklehead, but I think 1597 01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:10,880 Speaker 6: teams enjoy the experienced. 1598 01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:15,479 Speaker 7: Teammates like him. Though, well that does in football, that does, Matt. 1599 01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:19,360 Speaker 7: I'm not sure that's it's true of the roster. Listen, 1600 01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:19,920 Speaker 7: we just finished. 1601 01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:25,040 Speaker 1: My quarterback is mulling a VP run with an insane person. 1602 01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:29,519 Speaker 1: But the idea that you would pair Winston and let 1603 01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 1: Flacco walk is one of the crazier moves I've seen 1604 01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:33,160 Speaker 1: so far this week. 1605 01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:34,240 Speaker 3: I don't like it. 1606 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:36,640 Speaker 7: They did add they did keep Zadarias Smith, which I 1607 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 7: think is very important to edge rust the pastor across 1608 01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:41,560 Speaker 7: from Miles Garrett. 1609 01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:43,160 Speaker 5: He was a big difference last year. 1610 01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:46,320 Speaker 1: Is everyone because Flacco hasn't obviously you haven't heard his 1611 01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:50,960 Speaker 1: name connected anywhere. Is everyone of the belief that that 1612 01:12:51,160 --> 01:12:52,920 Speaker 1: was just a little hot streak. 1613 01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:53,559 Speaker 5: And he's now no longer. 1614 01:12:53,600 --> 01:12:54,719 Speaker 1: He said he wants to start. 1615 01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:58,200 Speaker 7: I mean, any quarterback would say that Cleveland seemed like 1616 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:00,600 Speaker 7: the logical spot he wanted to go to. 1617 01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:04,640 Speaker 6: He's been connected with the Titans I think would be 1618 01:13:04,840 --> 01:13:06,560 Speaker 6: a good backup spot. 1619 01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:11,599 Speaker 1: Yes, you mentioned Smith. Maurice Hurst. Niheim Hines running back 1620 01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:13,800 Speaker 1: also joins that room. Of course, Nick Chubb coming back 1621 01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:19,439 Speaker 1: from a really ugly knee injury and subsequent surgery. Afternoon Delight, 1622 01:13:21,840 --> 01:13:25,640 Speaker 1: eight o'clock. Delight thou the afternoon, either the morning or 1623 01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:29,599 Speaker 1: the night.

They 1807 01:22:12,560 --> 01:22:13,920 Speaker 7: little they little fire under. 1808 01:22:13,720 --> 01:22:17,680 Speaker 6: Our shoulders, you said, Dan, as this was happening, This 1809 01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:20,360 Speaker 6: is just so perfect for our podcast. It just makes 1810 01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:24,720 Speaker 6: so much sense how how it all sort of played out, 1811 01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:26,519 Speaker 6: and you know what, and we and we talked about 1812 01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:28,600 Speaker 6: it afterwards too. That was a scene because it was 1813 01:22:28,640 --> 01:22:31,320 Speaker 6: a strange, you know, it was an award show. It 1814 01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:33,439 Speaker 6: was it was strange to be there. On some level, 1815 01:22:33,479 --> 01:22:36,240 Speaker 6: we thought Chris Chris would have really gotten a kick 1816 01:22:36,280 --> 01:22:37,080 Speaker 6: out of it. 1817 01:22:37,160 --> 01:22:40,200 Speaker 3: Slash been disgusted by it. We probably enjoyed it in 1818 01:22:40,200 --> 01:22:40,800 Speaker 3: the end. It would have. 1819 01:22:40,920 --> 01:22:43,240 Speaker 1: Probably it was an open bar. Chris would have enjoyed 1820 01:22:43,240 --> 01:22:45,559 Speaker 1: that as well. I think it would have been. I 1821 01:22:45,600 --> 01:22:49,680 Speaker 1: think we all were enjoying the It was kind of 1822 01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:52,680 Speaker 1: an outrageous scene the way, and it was live, It 1823 01:22:52,760 --> 01:22:55,960 Speaker 1: streamed live and everything. So anyway, like my wife was 1824 01:22:56,040 --> 01:22:59,040 Speaker 1: watching it live at my son's little league game, so 1825 01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:00,679 Speaker 1: she got to see a lose. 1826 01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:02,800 Speaker 7: And she doesn't listen to a single episode of the pod, 1827 01:23:02,880 --> 01:23:05,400 Speaker 7: so that kind of you got her to participate. 1828 01:23:04,880 --> 01:23:06,040 Speaker 5: That's true, And I did. 1829 01:23:06,439 --> 01:23:09,240 Speaker 1: I sent a text because I had alerted my parents 1830 01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:12,640 Speaker 1: that we were going to be in Texas and we 1831 01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:16,599 Speaker 1: were up for an award, And when I texted Devin 1832 01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:21,080 Speaker 1: Keith that we lost to share Shannon Sharp. My father's response, 1833 01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:25,120 Speaker 1: sponsor is always his texting is always as many men age, 1834 01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:25,840 Speaker 1: very taut. 1835 01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:29,320 Speaker 5: It's very straight to the point. We lost the Shan 1836 01:23:29,560 --> 01:23:30,240 Speaker 5: Shannon Sharp. 1837 01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:36,799 Speaker 3: I never cared for him. 1838 01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:38,880 Speaker 1: I don't take it. I don't feel that way about Shannon. 1839 01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:42,479 Speaker 1: But I'm glad that dad has as our back. 1840 01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:46,280 Speaker 5: Oh.

We're gonna do a Tomorrow's show 1848 01:24:07,479 --> 01:24:09,960 Speaker 1: and then we'll see what comes after that.

I have 1865 01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:55,439 Speaker 6: some doubts whether this is going to actually happen on Wednesday. 1866 01:24:55,439 --> 01:24:58,720 Speaker 6: But that's uh, that's the six, But seventeen of the 1867 01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:02,280 Speaker 6: top fifty forty six of the one oh one overall, 1868 01:25:02,360 --> 01:25:03,200 Speaker 6: these are you. 1869 01:25:03,160 --> 01:25:05,760 Speaker 7: Know, we are getting to the point where like, yeah, 1870 01:25:05,800 --> 01:25:08,840 Speaker 7: we can make a four hundred and seventy five item 1871 01:25:08,920 --> 01:25:10,880 Speaker 7: news list, but a lot of the big names. 1872 01:25:10,920 --> 01:25:12,240 Speaker 3: No. But here's what good happen? 1873 01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:15,639 Speaker 6: Is like that Mahomes restructuring that I mentioned, the trades, 1874 01:25:16,320 --> 01:25:19,080 Speaker 6: anything kind of surprising on the trade front, I think 1875 01:25:19,479 --> 01:25:23,320 Speaker 6: still could happen Wednesday, Thursday. 1876 01:25:22,920 --> 01:25:24,160 Speaker 1: One week prediction.

I 1894 01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:12,439 Speaker 6: think we get a Joey Bosa trade. If we want 1895 01:26:12,479 --> 01:26:15,799 Speaker 6: to get wildly specific, let's go Joey Bosa to the Niners, 1896 01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:17,960 Speaker 6: even though they've signed a couple of passers. Why not, 1897 01:26:18,120 --> 01:26:20,840 Speaker 6: you know, team up the Bosa brothers. I saw, you know, 1898 01:26:21,160 --> 01:26:21,679 Speaker 6: how about. 1899 01:26:21,479 --> 01:26:23,880 Speaker 5: The Chiefs make a substantial move on offense? 1900 01:26:24,520 --> 01:26:27,080 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, they've done very little. How about like, all right, 1901 01:26:27,240 --> 01:26:31,679 Speaker 1: I'll do something with them. The realm of real Branda 1902 01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:33,080 Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuk. 1903 01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:33,880 Speaker 5: Traded to the Chiefs. 1904 01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:37,080 Speaker 1: Wow, they couldn't do now there are whispers about Ayuk, Yes, no, yeah, 1905 01:26:37,240 --> 01:26:39,600 Speaker 1: there are, and they have a needed wide receiver. 1906 01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:43,080 Speaker 7: Like the I don't I don't like the I don't 1907 01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:45,960 Speaker 7: like them doing that in general. It's like then they're 1908 01:26:45,960 --> 01:26:49,360 Speaker 7: one injury away from having exactly the opposite of what 1909 01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:50,160 Speaker 7: they had last year. 1910 01:26:50,240 --> 01:26:51,639 Speaker 3: Patriots and to the Chiefs. 1911 01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:55,400 Speaker 6: I've read if they lose out on the Calvin Ridley 1912 01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:58,400 Speaker 6: sweep steaks, they could dive into the trade market. They're 1913 01:26:58,400 --> 01:27:00,519 Speaker 6: just sort of like trying to plug holes and they 1914 01:27:00,640 --> 01:27:02,600 Speaker 6: might try to get in on the t Higgins or 1915 01:27:02,640 --> 01:27:05,200 Speaker 6: Ayuk or on a lower level Keenan Allen. 1916 01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:07,760 Speaker 1: Something and nothing from the Cowboys seems weird. I feel 1917 01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:10,400 Speaker 1: like they're gonna want to make a splash. That's yeah. 1918 01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:14,400 Speaker 7: They got like Dak Prescott's brother tweeting ill words about 1919 01:27:14,439 --> 01:27:16,760 Speaker 7: the Cowboys front office compared to the Eagles. 1920 01:27:17,160 --> 01:27:20,800 Speaker 1: All Right, we don't need to envy the Eagles after 1921 01:27:20,840 --> 01:27:24,080 Speaker 1: that last season. Everyone's so quick to just dive back 1922 01:27:24,080 --> 01:27:24,839 Speaker 1: in on the Eagles. 1923 01:27:24,960 --> 01:27:25,800 Speaker 5: I know, but we lose. 1924 01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:28,599 Speaker 1: It's like aragon of how an agency is like like 1925 01:27:29,040 --> 01:27:30,720 Speaker 1: watch the mental Disorder. 1926 01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:33,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, it does.
