Welcome to 3 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 1: Patrick gets unfiltered, he gets the haircut, then he's traded. 4 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: It's hair today, gone tomorrow. So mad he didn't get 5 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 1: the right guy. It's like, can I just has he 6 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 1: signed with anyone? He hasn't. But the fact that I 7 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: think he's a good player, but I don't think he's 8 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: in his prime, much like I know mccauody's not in 9 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,239 Speaker 1: this spot. Right, Paul thinks the guy who stays on 10 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 1: his own team is more valuable. Then so that Eric 11 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: I caught that too. I didn't want to go down 12 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: that road. I get it. That's that's thanks, that's stupid. 13 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 1: It's funny for you normally the most humorless guy on 14 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: the playoff. I just said that I wouldn't want Tyron Matthew. 15 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 1: He looked at me like, I just like, you know, 16 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: ate an onion or something better from last year? No 17 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: over wake of it. Liked they that way? Really talking 18 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: about three players at this point, right, Slater, mccordy and 19 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: now James White. That's that's too too many in my opinion, 20 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: Like I don't get really dramatic. Paul's on Fired today 21 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: kind of linebacker drives around in a Mini Cooper. I 22 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 1: mean that was ridiculous. This is Patriot's Unfiltered, fueled by Duncan. 23 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: All right, welcome the Patriots Unfiltered. It is Thursday here 24 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: at Gilette Stadium, and boy, we got a lot to 25 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: talk about. Paul's not here today. It's Duce, Eric, myself, 26 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: Matt in the booth. Paul's on NC double a vacation. 27 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: He's gotta like he's got to watch these things. Take 28 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: the day off. It's like he's seat belting into his couch, 29 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: right yeah, I mean, god forbid he misses, you know, 30 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: Dayton and Cincinnati or whoever the hell's playing. I don't know. Yeah, 31 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: he's probably already. It's also Saint Patrick's Day, so he 32 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: got built an excuse, but he was all fired up. 33 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: Who was it was Good's day. He's he's like not happy. 34 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: He was so fired up. We didn't even talk about 35 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. I know everybody called it. Did you do 36 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: it on purpose? I'm we're so done. We had a 37 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: two hour show on Tuesday and we didn't even talk 38 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: about Tom Brady coming back, and as Chris fur said, well, 39 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: he didn't mention us feel Yeah, I mean, and I 40 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: don't think we're gonna talk about a lot about that 41 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: today because we've got a lot of more propressing issues 42 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: to discuss. Terrence Mitchell, my god, yeah, well that's his name, 43 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: A signing, a signing. Yeah, we don't even have us signing. Yeah, 44 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 1: we have us signing. The Shack Mason trade. That's a 45 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: big that's a big deal which is yet to be 46 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 1: confirmed because the aforementioned us, the Cruise and Sody trade. 47 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: Me because I'm chilling on maybe one of the reasons 48 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: they can't make any moves is because they haven't cleared 49 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: the seven million off the cat must be some trade, 50 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: you know, thing you could tell the league it's gonna happen. 51 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: You know, I know those aren't the rules. Can you 52 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: give us? That's what I was probot. We have to 53 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, because it's gonna happen and get a 54 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: physical and the leagues, the league sitting there like, ah, shocks, 55 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: too bad, too bad. But that's what legitimately wonder was 56 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: is this going to hold things up? And then they have, 57 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: you know, another maybe free agent that they'd like to 58 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: move on, but they can't officially yet. I don't know 59 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: how that that all works. I think that's what's going on. 60 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: I would hope that that they would have been like, 61 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: does anyone know where Shack Mason is before we trade him? 62 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: In the middle of we were saying like, yeah, there's 63 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: no like reception on the boat. So he hasn't like 64 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: gotten the word yet that he's been traded. And well, 65 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: I mean that's the big thing, um that everyone's wondering, 66 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: is what are the Patriots going to do? What are 67 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: you know? They got rid of Winovich? Yea, they just 68 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: traded Shack Mason, which I think a mild shot, a 69 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: mild surprise. Yeah. So, but I'd like to point out that, 70 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I've been saying for two months that he 71 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: was a contract that could get shoved or readjusted. Him 72 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: and Jonathan Jones, those were the two. So I don't 73 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: think the player was surprising. I think that the compensation 74 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: was surprising, But I think what they got in terms 75 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: of the cap space that they needed, and you know, 76 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: the fifth rounder, it's it's it's there's no there's no 77 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: sugarcoating it. And I had some weird conversations with Paul 78 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: yesterday to you know, which is it's just funny because 79 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: on one hand, you know, he definitely wasn't happy about it, 80 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: but he also doesn't really value offensive linsive linemen, especially guards, 81 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: so right, and but what it does to me my 82 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 1: reaction is, Okay, we already knew going into this offseason 83 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: you had needs at cornerback, wide receiver. Um, you know, 84 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: depending on how you look at it, running back maybe, 85 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: but definitely edge or outside linebacker. Now you have to 86 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: add offensive line to the mix because you lose two 87 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: starting guards. You're probably not going to resign Trent Brown, 88 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: who's I think visiting Seattle, but said New England still 89 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: in the mix. I think that's a go and check 90 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: it out. Yeah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't put rule the 91 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: Patriots out just because he's looking elsewhere. No, but I mean, 92 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: but it's possible chances. I mean, he's done this before. 93 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 1: He played like he hasn't slept in ten days. Anyway, 94 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: that's okay, you like to say this is radio. Uh, 95 00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: he's done this before. He played here for a year, 96 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 1: cash in on a big deal, then when that team 97 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: didn't want him be came back. Now he played well 98 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: he's probably gonna cash in on a bigger deal than 99 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: we're likely to pay him. Yeah, it sounds like he 100 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 1: wants a long term place that he can kind of 101 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: put roots. He's been bouncing around for a few years. 102 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: So I think now you have to add offensive line too. 103 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: Even if Brown comes back, I'd still think you have 104 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: an issue with that interior. Sure, so offensive line is 105 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: now one of yet another issue that you have to 106 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: deal with this offseason. Yeah, and now I'm hoping that 107 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: he goes out, gets collects his offers, comes back here 108 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: and says, okay, we can do that, and he comes back. 109 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: I'd be down, I hope. Yeah, I'd be down to 110 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 1: keep him. I mean, I think that he's there's not 111 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: many guys out there that big, and you can't teach size. 112 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: He's the biggest guy in the NFS still, and he's 113 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: cool in his twenties. And I know that, you know, 114 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 1: I think he started the first couple of games he 115 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: played last year when he came back was great, and 116 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: I think he was okay after that, and you know, 117 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: not quite as dominant in spurts. But I'd still sign 118 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: up for him at right tackle. And I know that 119 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:03,239 Speaker 1: they've been connected to Layale call. They'd have to trade 120 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: for him. They have to. I mean he I think 121 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: I saw he has ten million a year for the 122 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: next three years. That's a lot. Yeah, Now what do 123 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: you what would you be willing to pay Trent Brown 124 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: right somewhere in that neighborhood I would imagine, right. Yeah, 125 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: So either it's I mean, if you're willing to pay 126 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: that much for l Collins might as well play Brown. 127 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if Collins injury history, if he's a 128 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: little bit more durable, Yeah, sure. I think he's got 129 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: some off the field issues too. Is that why the 130 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: Cowboys want to get rid of him? Mention? I'm not 131 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: sure why they want to why why his name is 132 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: in the mix. But I think he's had he's had 133 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: some issues that make them movable. But it's it's a need. 134 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: And Isaiah Wynn, I mean, I don't think anybody feels 135 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: like he's the long term solution at left tackle. I've 136 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: seen plenty people still speculating moving into guard. So Matt 137 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: Matt Chaddam was tweeting about a Boston college guard that 138 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 1: is a sure thing. John, Yeah, I he's one story. Yeah. Yeah. 139 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: I talked to him at the combine, and uh yeah, 140 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: I liked him. I liked him, just you know, he's 141 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: take him in the first round. Well he's That's probably 142 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: the area. I don't know what the Patriots should but 143 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: that's probably the area he's gonna go. But correct me 144 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong. But he looks like he has the 145 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: size and sort of versatility to play either guard or tackle. 146 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: That sounds more like a tackle than a guard. Really athletic, 147 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: really athletic guy. So I mean, if you're gonna take 148 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: someone in the first round, it should be somebody who 149 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: is like even Mankins. He wasn't he played guard here, 150 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: but like he he played tackle on occasion when they 151 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: needed him to. Yeah, as a pro, I mean, if 152 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna take a guy like that in the first round, 153 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: he should be able to do more than one thing. 154 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 1: He should be an offensive lineman, not just a guard 155 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: in my opinion, Yeah, at least because Scion Johnson sounds 156 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: like that kind of blue chip left tackle. Yeah yeah, yeah, sure, 157 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: which is uh, you know, just disappointing. You get a 158 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: first round pick you think, you know, win would have 159 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: been that guy, and had they hit on that one, 160 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: that would be locked down and you wouldn't have to 161 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: think about that part of it too. But you're right, 162 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: you're right, there's a I think we're still in kind 163 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: of the holding mode.

Day three we strike No, 166 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: not quite who we're still waiting for that. By the way, 167 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: what's Matt shoot On doing? Do you hear? You see 168 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: his tweets? Oh? Yeah, after recruiting. Yeah, it's funny, it's 169 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: a little embarrassing. I wonder what the two look thinks 170 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: about that. I do. And he's getting mad when they know, 171 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: like frustration give He's like he's like the representative of 172 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: the Patriots fan right now. Right he's out there like saying, yo, yo, 173 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: want to come play here? No? Why not? Come on? Man? Yeah? 174 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: Sending now Julio Jones like a picture just of Matt 175 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: Jones standing there and like a T shirt, Like what 176 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: do you think of this? You should have sent him 177 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: the gift of him doing the gritty right, I know, 178 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit more appealing. It's my quarterback. It's funny, 179 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: it's funny. I do wonder you know how they feel 180 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: about it. They Slater talk today and he was laughing 181 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: about it and thought it was was in good fun 182 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: and you know said how you know chewed on Just 183 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: his personality has been been great and a lot of 184 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: fun and kind of a jolt of energy that they needed. 185 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: So um, we'll see. I don't know how much his 186 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: recruiting he's helping so far yet, but yeah, I mean 187 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 1: Julio Jones. You know, at this point, i'd pay him 188 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: for a vetem minimum I bring him in, but I 189 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: don't know if I'd waste a lot of money on him. Yeah, 190 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: I would rather get a young waste. I don't think 191 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,719 Speaker 1: I'd spend a lot of money. Yeah, I would rather 192 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,839 Speaker 1: look to the draft for for that position at this point. Well, 193 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: I do both if you can, if you can, yeah, 194 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: well there's still guys out there too. I mean, so again, 195 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: bringing in a free agent does not say you can't 196 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 1: draft that position. No, no no, no, no, I'm just trying 197 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: to Like I'm I'm thinking, if you sign a guy 198 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: like Julio Jones, the expectation is he's going to be 199 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: on your roster in September, right, Yeah, you're not thinking 200 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: of him as like a just a camp body you're 201 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: looking at him is to be a contributor. Yeah right, 202 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: so him born Agalore, Jacoby Meyers. You just tendered. So 203 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: if you draft somebody, where does that draft pick fall out? 204 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: Like right? It's a numbers game. And then you trade Agalore? 205 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know? Yeah maybe, I mean I 206 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: think you know. Gunner, we'll see what happens with him. 207 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:00,599 Speaker 1: Didn't get tendered, so you i'd have you know, we 208 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: need for a punt return, so maybe you get a 209 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: rookie he can return punts and be kind of that 210 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: spot four fifth receiver. But oh and chances of our 211 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: drafting Alley Raceman just went up too. Huh, why need 212 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 1: Yakob's going to Vegas? I need another European, need another 213 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: German speaking person? Really upset they didn't consult me before 214 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: they made that move. Yeah, Jacob signed with Vague Raiders 215 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,839 Speaker 1: for about a million bucks. We couldn't give him a 216 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: million bucks, so so did good old Bolden. Bolden's over 217 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: there too. Yeah. See, now you know Paul was worried 218 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: about keeping all these old players, and all I see 219 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: is them leaving. Yeah. Well, but see, in fairness, Josh 220 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: is kind of doing what Yeah, a lot of coaches 221 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: do when they go to a new team, like Belichick 222 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: did it when he went to the Browns, or Parcels 223 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: did it when he came to the Patriots, or when 224 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: he went to from here to the Jets. You take 225 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: a few older guys, a handful that are right familiar 226 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: with your system, that are circle the wagons guys, and 227 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,959 Speaker 1: we're keeping a few. And Paul's going crazy about that. Well, 228 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: he was also in a mood on Tuesday, was he Yeah? 229 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: Because I made him right. I made him right. I 230 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: don't think it was you necessarily that he was upset. 231 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: I think he just had a good show and he 232 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,959 Speaker 1: had energy and was reacting as as the fans are 233 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: doing right now too, of you know, everybody getting up 234 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: and on. But there is this exodus we're seeing, you know, uh, 235 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: you know, people leaving and not being resigned and not 236 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: being tendered, and people wonder what are the Patriots doing? 237 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: Is this a rebuild total rebuild year or are they 238 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: gearing up for a big move. I don't think it's 239 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: the latter, you know, because because I think that would 240 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: have happened already. You know. Well, but again we bring 241 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 1: up the shack thing, like there there's seven million roughly 242 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: of cap space that you would need to make a 243 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: bigger move. By the way, the cap is crap, so 244 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: it's as well until it's don't have to say that 245 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 1: to me. I mean, I'm not the proponent of that. 246 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 1: That's Paul's thing, but but a lot of our fans 247 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: have been saying it because they see who is it 248 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: that just signed the bills? Well a million eight million 249 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: in cap space and they signed von Miller and obviously 250 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: they pushed it all to the future. What they give 251 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: him fifty in the first three years or something, Yeah, 252 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: something like that. It's about forty I think, just under 253 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: fifty million guarantee in the first three and then I 254 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: think then it's kind of year to years. Right, you 255 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: can do whatever you want, but there are consequences down 256 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: the road for that, and there comes a time you 257 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: can't kick the can anywhere at some point. Yeah, there's 258 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: always ways to manipulate, but that doesn't mean it's crap. 259 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: Right to me, that's nuanced. It's just lazy. That's just lazy, 260 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: and it comes back to bite you. And I think 261 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: that that's what you know happened with Shaq Mason. You know, 262 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: it's at a certain time where you're working with a 263 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: big money deal over a bunch of years, you can 264 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: finagle stuff even if you go into the season not 265 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: having in cap space. But you know, when it comes 266 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: down to the league's about to start, you guys have 267 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: three million in cap space. You're gonna need at least 268 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: five to get through the draft and all that you're 269 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: forced you have to do something. So that that's why 270 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: you kind of saw it coming. But I just think 271 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: it's about last year's free agent I mean last year, 272 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: I did they did what one hundred and sixty three 273 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: million guaranteed money last year? So far this year sixteen, 274 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: so a tenth of what they gave out last year. 275 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: But last year was a NFL record, was it not? Yeah, 276 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: And that's I'm not going to set an ord's in 277 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 1: perspective of I think what you know, because the cap 278 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: is crap. I think it's about guaranteed money, and it's 279 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: about how much of Robert Kraft's money are you now 280 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: handing out. Devin mccordy be in the big one, which 281 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: I think you know is we've discussed that plenty quead No. 282 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: I was just gonna just gonna add to that like 283 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: if they had done exactly what they did last year 284 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: and they hadn't petered out the way they did at 285 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: the end of the year. Like let's say they they 286 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: won two of those final four games that they looked 287 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: just atrocious in and even beaten the Bills somehow in 288 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: that first playoff, or even if they didn't, even if 289 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: they didn't beat them, but let's say they were competitive 290 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: in that game. Because they were just not competitive at all, 291 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: maybe the ownership who signs the checks looks at it 292 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: a little bit differently this year, even though that there's 293 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: limited there's limited space for them to you know, to 294 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,719 Speaker 1: work with anyway. But maybe he looks at it and says, well, 295 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: I spent all that money and that's what you got me. 296 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: I mean, look how we ended the seat like that 297 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouth. 298 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: If they had, if they had been a different outcome 299 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: to the season last year, they might have been a 300 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: little bit more willing to do something, a little bit 301 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: more creative with, you know, a von Miller type. So 302 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: you think so Robert Kraft said, yeah, you spent your 303 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: money last year, We're not doing it again. You know, well, 304 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: I think I think it partially might have to do 305 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: with how the season work, and you're saying that had 306 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: they had been better, he would have said, Okay, I'm 307 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: more willing to do yeah, a little bit more. I mean, 308 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: they're not going to spend record numbers because they don't 309 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 1: have that money to spend, but he might have been 310 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 1: more willing to try to take I hope not. I 311 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: hope that's not the case because because I don't want 312 00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: my owner, I don't care who it is making football decisions. Now. 313 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: I get it, he's got he's got the purse strings. 314 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: But we're not talking about replicating what they did last year. 315 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: But I would hate to think that if Bill came 316 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: in and said, hey, I think Khalil Matt can really 317 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: help this team. He's the one guy I want to 318 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: get this offseason, I would hate to say. I would 319 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: hate to think that. Robert Kraft said no, I would 320 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: hate that. I mean, I hear what they're saying, but 321 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: I just think it's more about you invested all this 322 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: money into these guys. Let them have a second year. 323 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: You know everybody wanted to just cut a smith. Let 324 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: them have another year. You spent the money. Iglore's off 325 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: the books after this year if you hate him so 326 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: much and that there's nothing more to discuss with him. 327 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: But you know, I think everybody deserves a chance. With 328 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: the way that they built a team last year to 329 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: to to build off of what they did or didn't do. 330 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: I think there was so much focus on making sure 331 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: mac Jones was put in a position to succeed. I 332 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: think that comes at a cost, and it comes at 333 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: the cost of you know, offensive complexity. You know, people talk, oh, 334 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: the Patriots offense is so you know complex. Not last year, Yeah, 335 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 1: it was not. How many teams told us that it 336 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: was easy to defend the Patriots. That's not just because 337 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: you know, they didn't have a guy with a complex 338 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: route tree. It's because they were running a fairly simple 339 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: offense because they had a rookie quarterback. Yeah, I'm with you, dudes. 340 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 1: You know, second year jump for these guys, especially when 341 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: their first year was with a rookie quarterback. So now 342 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: everybody's gonna take a second year jump, including the guys 343 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: that you signed. So let's you know, right, and they're 344 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: out at some field somewhere probably right now throwing. You know, 345 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: some of those guys are I also think, though, and 346 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: it's going around right now. Bill Simmons tweeted out the 347 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: Patriots drafts from like fifteen to nineteen. It's pretty grim, 348 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: as we all know. But I think it's also about 349 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: letting these young guys play. And you got to find 350 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: out with some of these and I'm hoping, and you've 351 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: been hoping for many you know, for all three years 352 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: you've been here like can we can we can we 353 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: turn it over? We're gonna have to turn it over 354 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: at some point, High Tower of Collins vanois. Those guys 355 00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: aren't going to play forever. They're not going to be 356 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: around if when Mac Jones is leading this team to 357 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: the you know, playoff runs and that kind of thing. 358 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: So I think they have to give these guys a 359 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: chance otherwise, if they just kind of toil, you go out, 360 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: you sign a bunch of free agents, and now you 361 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: push them, keep them down in the depth chart, you know, 362 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: as Paul's Fauna saying, you finally get a chance to 363 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: look at Ucha and his last year he plays well, 364 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: and then he's gone because you know that they don't 365 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: want to pay him. So I think it's those two things. 366 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: I think it's about free agent development. I think it's 367 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 1: about the rookies and the young guys getting a chance 368 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: to play. And I also think that they're waiting in 369 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: the weeds and they're gonna make some signings that wow, 370 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: that's a good deal for that guy. Well you I 371 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: think there's still those moves to come. They need to 372 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: sign a bunch of guys. It's not like this is it. 373 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,680 Speaker 1: You know, what's the sixty five. I mean, there's twenty 374 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: five more people are going to be on this roster 375 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: by the time you know, May rolls around, So do 376 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,360 Speaker 1: the math. They will be additions. But this is more 377 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: like the Patriots do it. And that's why it's so 378 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: surprising to see people just losing their minds, as if 379 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: last year wasn't the outlier, and it felt like everybody 380 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 1: acknowledged They're like, wow, this is crazy. Isn't this great? 381 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,919 Speaker 1: You know? And it's like, well, this year, did you 382 00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: really think that that was the new way they were 383 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 1: going to do things? They went back to how they 384 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: do things. I think they had to. I think, you know, 385 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 1: what Eric said is a little bit of it, But 386 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: I think it's just them managing. They gave out a 387 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: bunch of big deals last year. You got to see 388 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: who the good players are moving forward, and then next 389 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: year you got another big chump chunk of cap space 390 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: to reallocate, refocus on who you want to build a 391 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: team around and moving forward. Yeah, I think I'm with 392 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: you there. However, um, you know, when you trade away 393 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 1: Shaq Mason and you may not sign Trent Brown and 394 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 1: your defense is sort of being gutted, you know, I 395 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: think that you got to do something. It's not going 396 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: to all come through the draft, you know. So, so 397 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 1: I don't blame fans for wondering, Okay, what is the deal? 398 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 1: Are they just kind of and and I heard I 399 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: see somebody use the word tanking. I wouldn't use that word, 400 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: But are they sort of just you know, letting this 401 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: year be what it is in order to build up, 402 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: you know, for the future. Yeah, I think people get 403 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: the definition of the word rebuild. It doesn't happen overnight, right, 404 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: So I think and I think people got a little 405 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 1: bit um, you know, false hope last year when they 406 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 1: had that seven game win streak and it looked like, 407 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: oh look back back already, back already, and that I 408 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: remember us. That was funny though, But you know, these things, 409 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 1: it's called a rebuild for a reason. You have to 410 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 1: do things that it's gonna cause some pain for a 411 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: little while, and you might have to make some sacrifices. 412 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 1: And maybe they thought last year they weren't sure whether 413 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: or not they wanted to or not, which is why 414 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: I think they brought back some guys like you know, uh, 415 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 1: Jamie Collins in the middle of the season, or made 416 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: some of the older guys play a little bit more 417 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: because maybe they kind of felt like, oh, we are 418 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: we were kind of there, We're kind of in the mix, 419 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: or you know, I think they were a little torn 420 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: internally about whether or not it was a complete teart 421 00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: to the studs thing, because they also went and signed 422 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: all these players. Well that's the thing, you know, you 423 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: know it was. It was a weird year. Yeah, you know, 424 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: the cat went way down. You had a rookie quarterback 425 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: eighty because of COVID. Right, we were one of the 426 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,199 Speaker 1: few teams that had money. Right, So even if you 427 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: went in and thought, oh, okay, twenty twenty one is 428 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: gonna be a tear it to the studies, then all 429 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're presented with this opportunity, right, all right, well, 430 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: let's do it. We can do that and still kind 431 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: of go on that rebuild. Yeah, you know so, and 432 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 1: you get a rookie quarterback, right who normally rookie quarterbacks 433 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: don't do anything for you in their first year, and 434 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: you have to start building around them. So the thing 435 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: that concerns me right now is that we don't know 436 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 1: who the offensive coordinator is. We don't know who's going 437 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: to be taking Mac under his wing as far as 438 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: the coach goes quarterbacks coach or oh see what even 439 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: if they're both the same. We don't know what the 440 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 1: offensive line is going to look like right now in 441 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: terms of starting right We don't know who the offensive 442 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 1: line coaches. We don't know what the offensive line is 443 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: gonna look like. This is a very important year for Mac, 444 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: for any player going into their second year, but especially 445 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: a quarterback, a franchise quarterback. There's a lot of uncertainty 446 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: surrounding him, a lot more than I would be comfortable 447 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: with if I were, you know, in charge of this team. 448 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: The protection protection, I mean, that's just the protection and developed, 449 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: especially right up in the middle. You know, two new guards. 450 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think, I mean, maybe this opens up 451 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: a chance for him when you did it to play 452 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 1: right guard, which he really hasn't been able to do. 453 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: I mean, he was kind of put into the tuney 454 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 1: spot last year at left guard. But you know, I 455 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: think you feel good about that, you feel good about Andrews. 456 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: But I think you're right. There's questions and who's going 457 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: to get these guys ready, and especially for a quick 458 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: passing quarterback like Mac, like up the middle, like you know, 459 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: making sure that that he's secure and he trusts him. 460 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,479 Speaker 1: I'm not too worried about the offensive line. I think 461 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: I'm probably more on Paul side of the street with like, 462 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: if you've got to choose a position to turnover, right 463 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: guard will probably be the first one I would choose. 464 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: Nothing against Shack Mason, but but just remember how how 465 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: many times we gritted our teeth in the first half 466 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: of last year watching Mac get clabbered, took some really 467 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: tough hits, and then things kind of settled down mid 468 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: season on they settled on A five. Those guys pretty 469 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,239 Speaker 1: much played the rest of the season, and things were 470 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: better for him. He had more time. If you've got 471 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: a situation like twenty fourteen, the beginning of twenty fourteen, 472 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: when it was a different combination of offensive lineman week 473 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 1: to week. That's not good, Bob, No, you don't want that. 474 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 1: And if he's back there trying to you know, process 475 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: information and he's getting you know, pressure from all sides, 476 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: like he was in the first half of last year. Yeah, 477 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 1: it's going to start his growth. But there's also I 478 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: think experienced four mac of identifying protections, knowing where when 479 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: he has to get the ball out, just understanding. I 480 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 1: think that's an element. If there's no question having a 481 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 1: good offensive line that plays well as part of it. 482 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: But I think part of it too, will be Max's 483 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: development understanding knowing where a bad line could make a 484 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: quarterback look bad, but a quarterback could make his line 485 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: look bad too. A little bit of breaking news. A 486 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: little bit of breaking news. The Bills have parted ways 487 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: with Cole Beasley. Oh okay, he's unvaccinated. I don't want 488 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: to We're over that. It's over. That doesn't matter anymore. 489 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: And no, seriously, the league has lifted all They've done 490 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 1: things just like most yeah, places around the country and 491 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 1: around the world. Now we're starting to worry about that. 492 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: We still had a zoom with with Matthew Slayter this morning, 493 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 1: which I'm not complaining about. We can keep those those 494 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: media failag those are that's for convenience sake, Like that's easy. Yeah, 495 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: people don't have to leave their houses, you know. I 496 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: like that. But yeah, Colbas Beasley, I like it interesting. Yes, 497 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 1: I'm interested. When did you bring Chris Berman joined the show? Um? No, 498 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 1: I'm I'm into colesby Coles Beasley. Yeah, you know, for 499 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 1: the right price again, just what we need. Yeah, you 500 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,479 Speaker 1: forget all those years you played for Dallas too, right, 501 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: playing the year part of Paul. Yeah, that's all we need. 502 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: But is he the kind of like like he's obviously 503 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: a good receiver, and especially at that position that's that's 504 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: really a prototypical slot receiver right there, Like is that 505 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: the kind of player you would love to get from Mac? Yes, 506 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: but as a rookie, you know, I'd rather get a 507 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 1: young guy and let him develop. I just that that's 508 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: what I want. I'd love to see two receivers in 509 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: the draft, which probably won't happen, but you know, get 510 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: somebody on day two and get somebody on day three. Um, 511 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: you know, because I think those slot receivers are out there, 512 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 1: you know, like Sky Moore is a guy that that 513 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 1: that everybody's kind of talking about with the Patriots. Sky's 514 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: the limb really fast, I hope. So two Wise um 515 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 1: Uh and Uh and Phillips from UCLA who is like 516 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: a little Wes Welker clone. So those are two like 517 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: just pure slot guy day three. I'm not trying to 518 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,119 Speaker 1: sell you on him being the number one that everybody wants. 519 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: But um but Metchi too on day day two. I 520 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,199 Speaker 1: think that would be for me. I like him. I 521 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: like him too. Get a macboo, you know, get maxim 522 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 1: booze guys that he I mean, Dante Scarneki has said it. 523 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: He needs a binkie. Yeah, you know, and maybe you know, 524 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: I think some of these guys developed, but I think 525 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: everybody will be better too, is you know, roles become 526 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: more defined and and you know you have guys pushing 527 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: guys at the bottom of the roster. So yeah, I'd 528 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 1: love to see that. I mean, I think they'll grab somebody, 529 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: some veteran in uh in free agency at some point. 530 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 1: But we'll see, all right.

But my question is you can 558 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: play the propole guard. I know he has sixteen mills 559 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 1: on the camp for five for the fifth round draft pick. 560 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 1: You can't get a second or a third that's gonna 561 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: hit about fifth round death? What special teams something like that? 562 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: You know, what were you special at? That's you know, 563 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: stuff like that makes that makes you got your head. 564 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: That's why fans is getting a little bit of like 565 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: a little little nod a little bit. I mean both 566 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: you frothing to help, but you signed eight thirty eight 567 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: thirty ye old and thinks that's gonna help. Where you 568 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: see what anybody else doing around the league, besh, in 569 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: your division and in the in the AFC, you know. 570 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: And then Paul mac like I said, like o't said earlier, 571 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 1: office court dater, who's gonna help, who's gonna tutor? Who's what? 572 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot of questions. That's why we kind of frustrated, 573 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 1: Like and it's March. Three days in the free Edge, 574 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: It's March. I know, I look, I know, I get it. 575 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying. But do you know what 576 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: I'm saying? Right? Yeah, Yeah, they've hit on about six 577 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 1: draft picks in the last five years. Jack Mason was 578 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: one of them, and they extended him, one of the 579 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: few to get it. And then and it hurts to 580 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: you know, move on from him, you know, But again, 581 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 1: these are like moves that happened on I don't mind 582 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,160 Speaker 1: the moving on the parties. He still is prime sixteen, 583 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: but you will give him the Brady and you get 584 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: a fifth round, you can get a second or third. 585 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,120 Speaker 1: I think that's as I think that's what most people 586 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 1: are upset about. Yeah, I don't know if, like you say, 587 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: he's in his prime, what is he like he's like 588 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: twenty nine, yeah, thirty, and he's a guard I mean 589 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 1: a fifth round pick because the other team has to 590 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: now pay his salary. Yeah, yeah, you know, so I 591 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: understand that too. That lowers the pick that he'll be 592 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,199 Speaker 1: twenty nine in August. Yeah, so what I'm but he's 593 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: still young, still a young player, right, he's Yeah, he's 594 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:32,439 Speaker 1: not ancient. They're about to forget what Harold looked right 595 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: on that right tackle when we played I think with 596 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: Buffalo when he got knocked over and they got the 597 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: map and then you know like he like man you 598 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:40,959 Speaker 1: did to get him off the field, where you get 599 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: the quarterback kill a couple of plays. Everybody's forgetting about 600 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: that because what I'm saying, you got back there to 601 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: move up to the next that's what's we're in us. Yeah, 602 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: me especially Yeah, Yeah and Mac. Then bad draft, Like 603 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: I said, bad capital a Pro Bowl guard for a 604 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: fifth rounder. Yeah, ridiculous, I'm sorry, but but but what 605 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: do we know about what they could have got? Like 606 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: they got what they do? You think that they were like, 607 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: well the Rams will give us a second rounder, but 608 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: we want to go with the fifth. Like what they got? 609 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: What they got? Like I think they had to. I 610 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: think they had to weigh O. I think Eldred's saying, 611 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: you should have not if you couldn't get a second 612 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: or a third, you shouldn't have traded him. Well, but 613 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: I think you have to. Well, but see here's what 614 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: we don't know. What was more important to them? Thanks 615 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: Eldred getting compensation in a trade for Shack Mason or 616 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 1: clearing up Shack Mason's cap space. Clearly it was the money, right, 617 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: So I think they were willing to bite the bullet 618 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: on them. Okay, we can't get as much as we 619 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: want a compensation, but we really need to open up 620 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:39,959 Speaker 1: the cap space. So I think that's what they were 621 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: looking at. I mean, we're not at privy to the 622 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: you know, the inner workings of the front office, but 623 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 1: when you look at it on its surface, oh yeah, 624 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: especially when they had that gap in the fifth round, 625 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: it almost seemed like they were like, we don't have 626 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 1: a fifth round, or could you just give us a 627 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: fifth for them? That would be fine, Yeah, because we 628 00:29:54,440 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 1: don't have a p we're gonna give you. Yeah. It's 629 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: like a child, you know. I just I have to 630 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: just say generally, Bill Belichick is like the gift to 631 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: Boston Sports radio because no one else can, like, year 632 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: after year, do it his own way.

I don't want to 649 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: be one of the stupid teams that takes the chances 650 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: and all you know that he goes off the beaten path. 651 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: It's always interesting, and it just it fuels this whole 652 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: radio market where all season long, ninety percent of the 653 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: time they're talking about the Patriots and Bill of checking aha, 654 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: check why is he doing? But he just does it 655 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: his own way. Every year it's crazy and everyone's like 656 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: and even and like, so at a certain point you 657 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: just sit back and you're like, huh, just enjoy the chaos, 658 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 1: Just watch it all burned. Going back to the point 659 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: I was making earlier about how they were kind of 660 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: perhaps it looked like they were torn last year with 661 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: do we rebuild or do we try to make a 662 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: run at the playoffs. Maybe the way it ended, maybe 663 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: maybe Bill realized, Okay, maybe we're not as close as 664 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: I thought. Maybe it is time to go and choose 665 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: one one or the other, and it's maybe now it's 666 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: time to start looking seriously at tearing some things down 667 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: and starting over, which means getting rid of a guy 668 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: like Shack who makes a little bit more money than 669 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: you're comfortable with, clearing up space, hoping that some of 670 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 1: the guys you signed last year will take another step forward, 671 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: and acquiring more draft picks to try to build on 672 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: the momentum you've got with last year's draft, getting three 673 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: guys at the top who were all significant contributors all year. 674 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: So you know, maybe the maybe the rebuild is happening 675 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: a year later than people maybe first thought, but it's 676 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: it's it was bound to happen sooner or later. Yeah, 677 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: I just think last year there was an opportunity that 678 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: not exactly, and they opened the door, right and did 679 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: that maybe delay the complete rebuild a little bit. Yeah, 680 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: but now you've got you know, you've got Hunter Henry, 681 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: and you've got Kendrick Bourne and you know, and those 682 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: are you know, could be players for the next few years. 683 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: Match youot on. Yeah, we'll see, you know, And and 684 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: now we're hoping for second year jumps for you know, 685 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 1: Smith and war and if that happens, great, and hopefully 686 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: some of these younger players who haven't gotten a chance 687 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: to play will step up yet, right, Yeah, I just 688 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 1: I can't fault them. For Dante Hitier wanted to come 689 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: back after taking the COVID year off and saying, yeah, yeah, 690 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: of course of course she would take him back. And 691 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: thank god Brandon Bolden came back, right, I mean what 692 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: you know and had a career gait for him. Going 693 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: to see Josh, I dug up and the thing I 694 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 1: wrote just a quote Josh had had during the season 695 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: about Bolden about just everything he does, how much he's 696 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 1: and it was like, wow, obvious, why why Josh took him? Um? 697 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: You know, I think for me last year, the Van 698 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 1: Noy move when they brought him back, that was the 699 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: kind of little bit of a bummer to me, just 700 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: because I felt like they had an opportunity to have 701 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: a spot where a guy like Oocha or you know 702 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: with the time win of Itch or at the time Jennings, 703 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: you know, the young guys that you looked at last year, 704 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: that oh, there's an opportunity for them to work into 705 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,479 Speaker 1: this rotation. Uh. And then I felt like when they 706 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: brought van Noy and then they doubled down with Collins, 707 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: it just pushed all those guys further. Do you think 708 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: that when Bill decided to bring van Noy back last year, 709 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: he does it because he knows what he's got van Noy, 710 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: But he also does it hoping that those guys you 711 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: mentioned beat him out. Maybe you know, I'm gonna bring 712 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 1: in a known commodity and he's gonna, you know, have 713 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: his place in the depth chart to start, but hey 714 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: beat him out an then beat him? Yeah, man, they 715 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 1: didn't do it. Maybe I just I think too that 716 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,399 Speaker 1: we try to generally, we try to put it into 717 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: like are they rebuilding? Are they And I think that 718 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 1: it just it's a microscopic decision on a case by 719 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,319 Speaker 1: case basis. Where Kyle van Noy was available, he knows 720 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: the system. Would he make us better? Yeah, potentially yes. 721 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: Could he be fading now and that's why Miami. Potentially Yes, 722 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: But we feel like he has a chance to make 723 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: this team better. And I like, I don't think they 724 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: look at everything through this lens of like, well, this 725 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: year is a rebuild year, and we're going to do everything. 726 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 1: I think it's case by case and trying to build. 727 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 1: You know, I know that he's big on, you know, 728 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: constructing a dynamic, having a balance of veterans and of 729 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 1: young guys. And I know that there's you know, probably 730 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 1: a whole novel sitting somewhere in this building of his 731 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 1: philosophy on how to balance a team out between what 732 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:53,839 Speaker 1: you need and what you don't. I know it was, um, 733 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 1: you know, something that talked about a lot in Cleveland, 734 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: how they established what the culture and what the you know, 735 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,839 Speaker 1: dynamic needs to be. So I know that he has 736 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 1: all these things in his mind, and you know, it's 737 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 1: just hard day three into free agency and everyone's like, 738 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: that's it. They're gonna win one game this year, and 739 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think the roster is anywhere close 740 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: to what it's gonna look like in a week much 741 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: less six months from now? Yeah, all right, five five pats, 742 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 1: five hundred. Let's go to William and Philham. What's up William? 743 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 1: So that's how are you doing good? Hey? All right? Okay, Um, 744 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: I don't know what I want to say. All right, 745 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: thanks for calling? All right, but you had to call. 746 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 1: It's like checking in with mom. Really are you reading well? Williams? 747 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: Did you get enough sleep last night? Man? And I look, 748 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: I'm off work today and I've seen that move. I 749 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:47,280 Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, are you kidding me? Um, Mike, look, 750 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: let me make sure how I say this right? Because 751 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 1: I was seeming so bad. I had to calm down. 752 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 1: Just I listened to Mike just, you know, put days 753 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: in perspective, bills for me as far as day. You know. 754 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give Bill allways his praises, but I will 755 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:04,240 Speaker 1: always call him when he makes the mistakes. I'm sorry, 756 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 1: I can't hold his hand. I'm not going to you 757 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, like like, yes, he got a 758 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 1: six super bowsie he um, you know he's Bevan the 759 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: team he did think. I mean, he did a lot 760 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,399 Speaker 1: of great things. I'm never gonna take that from Bill. 761 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 1: But as a GM. I'm like, you cannot tell me. 762 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 1: You're not gonna tell me that, Okay, Bill is like 763 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 1: he calls it right on the money. No, he don't. 764 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: And this is this is a prime example of this, 765 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 1: the jac Jackson, the Gilmore situation. Even Calvin Noy beat 766 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: out Hot Tower and Jamie and Jamie Cohn. How did 767 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,359 Speaker 1: you cut him? But you don't want to cut Hot Tower? 768 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: Could you explain it to him? I mean, I'm not 769 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: trying to sit there and tell you that the guy 770 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 1: is perfect. I don't think anybody's perfect, So I mean, 771 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I think the draft misses have sucked. 772 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: I think that's why they've struggled the last few years. 773 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 1: I think that fed a lot into why break. I 774 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: don't I don't have a bar of perfection. I just 775 00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 1: I think that he's got a plan, he knows what 776 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 1: he's doing. I'm not sitting here pulling my hair out 777 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 1: at this point in the offseason thinking that, oh, he 778 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 1: just wants to win three games a year for the 779 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: next fifteen years so that he can surpass Don Shula 780 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: and that's all he really cares about. Like, I just 781 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: I don't, I don't see it that way. I look, 782 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 1: I get the mistakes, I get the missus, I get 783 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: like the head scratching decisions. I'm right with you, believe me, 784 00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: I to kill Harry didn't get it? I don't. But 785 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: at the same time, you know what, I don't want 786 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 1: this to be over yet. You guys all blame us 787 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: for running Brady out there? Way do you want to, 788 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: Bim Bellett? You know what, It's gonna be liked, you know, 789 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: like it's fine, like and I'm not getting mad that, 790 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: like he gets criticism, like, it's fine, he can handle it. 791 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: I just I just get mad when people try to 792 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 1: tell me that he doesn't want to win, that he 793 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,839 Speaker 1: isn't like completely invested in this and trying to put 794 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 1: it together the best he can. And yeah, it's not perfect. 795 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: I get it. But well, Mike, wait a minute, so 796 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 1: I had the thing sound you got Look, I actually 797 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: speak lound and words when people looking at what he's doing, 798 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,919 Speaker 1: does that tell you that he want to There's only 799 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 1: so much he can do right now with the financial 800 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 1: constraints that they're under. So yeah, so there's only so 801 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,800 Speaker 1: much they can do. And you know what, for so 802 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: long there was certainty about this team. You had the 803 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: best quarterback of all time, and as long as you 804 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 1: had him and Bill together, you knew this team was 805 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 1: going to be competitive. When double digit games make it 806 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: to the AFC Championship, you could take that to the 807 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: bank for a long time. For the first time these 808 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,760 Speaker 1: past I'm gonna call this now the third season counting 809 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: twenty and twenty one, twenty two is certainly the most 810 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: uh questionable of the three so far. There's a lot 811 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: of uncertainty around this team, and people are not used 812 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 1: to that, and so that's where I think a lot 813 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 1: of the fear is coming from. Because what do we 814 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,400 Speaker 1: fear most as human beings the unknown. There's a lot 815 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,320 Speaker 1: of unknown about this team. Writers, all, can I have 816 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:54,359 Speaker 1: one one more question and then I'm out of the way. Yeah, yeah, Uh, Mike, 817 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 1: this once were you again? Let's go how you doing? 818 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: All right? He's calling all over and start this right 819 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: from the beginning. Um, the Nelson the agular thing you're saying, 820 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 1: let's keep on it. He signed this contract, whatever, Let's 821 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 1: see what he doing. His thing is? What second season? Whatever? Yeah? Um, dude, 822 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: are you what are you expecting from a tween nuals 823 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 1: receiver that you know you ain't gonna get. I don't 824 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: know what you think he's going to do. I mean, honestly, 825 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, he's a very intelligent man and everything. 826 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: I see how he talking and knowing the press conferences 827 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 1: and stuff. But when he wanted to field, I'm looking, 828 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 1: I I just don't. I don't know. I just think that, 829 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 1: like I said, Bill made that mistake right there. I 830 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 1: think I don't know. But what what what? Let me 831 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: ask you this, what were you based on his career? 832 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,720 Speaker 1: What were you expecting him to do last year? Nothing? 833 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 1: Not really honestly because of how he is. Nothing. I 834 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 1: just I just think Bill picked him on first. But 835 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 1: he did more than nothing. He contributed. He wasn't like 836 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 1: he did. It's not like he went through the entire 837 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 1: season and didn't make a play. Who we're talking about, Yeah, 838 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, yeah, he wasn't nothing. I mean 839 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,319 Speaker 1: he for his career. He had one spectacular year with 840 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: the Raiders, which I think opened people's eyes to the 841 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: potential for him. But he was your top paid receiver, 842 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 1: and he was your top receiver, sure right right. You 843 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: gave him a lot more money than probably he deserved, 844 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 1: but you had money to spend and you wanted to 845 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 1: make a move, and people were excited at the time 846 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 1: that you made moves, and he did what he normally 847 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 1: does in this league. So I think you have to 848 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: temper your expectations when you look at a guy's career. 849 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: Same thing with Jon Smith. He didn't do much more 850 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: than he has done throughout his career. Yeah, last year 851 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: it looked clunky, but thanks William. Yeah, I'm fine to 852 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:35,240 Speaker 1: give them a chance, but you know, I'm not hitching 853 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 1: my wagon for the next five years to agglor like 854 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 1: I think you him should be a competent NFL receiver 855 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 1: this year. I hope, as you know Fred laid out, 856 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 1: that Mac can take advantage of him maybe a little 857 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: bit more. We also watched plenty of training camp practices 858 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,279 Speaker 1: where those guys made some plays there too that you know, 859 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,879 Speaker 1: not everybody saw. So you know, I just I think 860 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,759 Speaker 1: they need a rookie to come in and work with Mac, 861 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 1: and I think those kind of guys will be the 862 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: long term answer. But in the time being, for twenty 863 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 1: twenty two, I'll run it back with the guys in 864 00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 1: you and don't forget, and don't forget that they took 865 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 1: a receiver in the first round and it didn't work out, 866 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,280 Speaker 1: and that sets you back, That sets back at that position. 867 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 1: It certainly didn't. You know, I've got you said that, friend, 868 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,759 Speaker 1: because it's it's it's enlightening when you go back and 869 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 1: you look at and and everybody remembers my love affair 870 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: with Philip door Set. But there's a guy who's a 871 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:27,239 Speaker 1: four three first round guy. And I think that you 872 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:28,800 Speaker 1: look at the guys this year and there are a 873 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: lot of four three first round guys that everyone is like, 874 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: can't miss. You know, just because you're fast and just 875 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 1: because you're you know, highly rated, coming out doesn't guarantee 876 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 1: you of anything. So you know, I think they've got 877 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,360 Speaker 1: to be smart. But I think you got to the 878 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 1: realistically look at the league and say you need an 879 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: offense that can chug and go and put points on 880 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: the board. And and they're still building, specially when other 881 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:57,320 Speaker 1: teams in the AFC are built for speed and points 882 00:41:57,880 --> 00:41:59,799 Speaker 1: and you need to keep up with the likes of 883 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 1: the Buffalos, the Kansas Cities, the Los Angeles is the 884 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 1: Cincinnati's teams that can put points on the board almost 885 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 1: at will. You're not there, You're not even close to 886 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 1: be in there yet, yea. And one more thing, just 887 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,319 Speaker 1: to William's call, because that he brought up. I just 888 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 1: think that Bill has a philosophy and you might not 889 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: like his philosophy of football and how he builds football 890 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: teams and what he believes you need to have for 891 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 1: football teams to win. It might not match up with 892 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,800 Speaker 1: your you know, vision of the number one receiver and 893 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 1: the number one you know, but it's it has worked. 894 00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: And I know to a degree of yeah, Brady, Brady Brady, 895 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 1: but he guys still knows what he's doing. And I 896 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 1: think the thing for me with Bill Belichick is when 897 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,319 Speaker 1: you hear players talk about him, don't listen to the 898 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 1: media talk about what Bill Belichick does or doesn't know. 899 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,360 Speaker 1: Listen to the players and listen to how much football 900 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 1: that he knows when they go in there and they 901 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 1: listen to him, Like that's that's the special stuff that 902 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,319 Speaker 1: happens behind the scenes. And I feel like everybody wants 903 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,399 Speaker 1: who it's the greatest coach of all time. But let 904 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: me list off all the reasons why I hate him 905 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 1: and want him to be gone, Like it's just it 906 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: doesn't make sense to me. It doesn't resign itself with 907 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:03,799 Speaker 1: how the players actually feel about him, which I think 908 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 1: they all respect him, and you know, know that he 909 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: knows what's going on with the game and how to 910 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,800 Speaker 1: build a football team. Yeah, let's go to Todd in Greenville, 911 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 1: North Carolina. What's up, Todd. Hey, I'm not sure if 912 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 1: Bill has decided whether he's fully given up on, you know, 913 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,800 Speaker 1: having a good team or not. Because paying nine million 914 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: for d Mac, You've got a gotta wonder a little bit. 915 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 1: I would love, you know, keep some veterans, like you said, Fred, 916 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: you need veterans for the leadership and to kind of 917 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 1: build you know, the patriot ideology. But I you know, 918 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:37,879 Speaker 1: it makes me wonder because that's a lot to play 919 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: for something like that, and to keep Slater as well. 920 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:41,879 Speaker 1: When you get some young guys that can replace him, 921 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,360 Speaker 1: you need new leadership eventually, So maybe it's time to 922 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: start maybe moving a little bit more. I kind of 923 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 1: agree with crazy Paul. Well, let's put it this way, Okay, 924 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,840 Speaker 1: So again we're talking about three players, Matthew Slater, mccordy 925 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 1: and James White. You know, yeah, probably and that's a 926 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 1: one year deal from Acquardy, right, He's probably gonna be 927 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: gone next year. Slide is probably gonna be gone next year, 928 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 1: you know, So why do you care? Why do you so? 929 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,399 Speaker 1: If you agree with Paul, then the cap is crap, 930 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 1: so it doesn't matter how much they paid him, and 931 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 1: you could have maybe kept somebody else. Gunner I would 932 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 1: have liked to keep just for a sentimental reason. I 933 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,800 Speaker 1: like him. But you know, I can understand why wouldn't 934 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 1: they keep Gunner if the cap is crap? What? They 935 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 1: could have kept Gunner and they decided not to. They 936 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 1: could have kept Shaq Mason, they decided not to. What. Yeah, 937 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 1: But my biggest problem right now is the situation is 938 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 1: we've always had trouble getting two things. Receivers and uh, 939 00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 1: you know, high high draft corners. You know, the guys 940 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 1: that we get that are not drafted are amazing. But 941 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 1: when we actually try to draft a corner or we 942 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,839 Speaker 1: try to draft the receiver, it never works out. And 943 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 1: that's two of the biggest needs we have right now. 944 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:02,839 Speaker 1: It makes me a little confirt ye where I'm at? 945 00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 1: Ye Okay, can't stop doing it though, Yeah, keep trying. 946 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 1: I see, I don't I agree with him. They've had 947 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: trouble drafting high, high ranking corners and receivers. But to me, 948 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 1: keeping Devin mccordy' is a separate issue. I don't think 949 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 1: they're related. I don't think that by getting mccordy it 950 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 1: prohibits you from drafting receiver. Well, you know, like that 951 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 1: ruined their whole offseason was ruined because they paid Devin 952 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 1: mccordy nine million dollars. Like, yeah, I don't get it. 953 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't get it. I think you need 954 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: guys like that on the roster for leadership, and right 955 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: now they have three and and that's it. And so yeah, 956 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,680 Speaker 1: and David would I would throw David Andrews into that too, 957 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:46,479 Speaker 1: you know, as one of the olds. That's a leader, 958 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 1: you know, a veteran leader. Absolutely, you know. But it's 959 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:51,640 Speaker 1: like I said, I think there's always a balance to it. 960 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,959 Speaker 1: And I don't know, everyone gets so fired u about 961 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,319 Speaker 1: Devin mccordy, like he's a free safety plays on the 962 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 1: back end. He gets everybody on the same page, Like 963 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 1: it's not like you need him to win in trench 964 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,920 Speaker 1: battles every week and he just doesn't have it anymore. 965 00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 1: Like I mean, I know Paul wasn't impressed with him 966 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,760 Speaker 1: last year. I didn't really notice all that much different 967 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,359 Speaker 1: about the deep passing game, Like it didn't seem like 968 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 1: that was that was that much of an issue. Um, 969 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,319 Speaker 1: but I don't know people are latched onto this right 970 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,760 Speaker 1: now when it's just become their only resigning old guys 971 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:21,480 Speaker 1: and like it's the three guys, right, three guys. It's 972 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 1: three guys and guys who have played a lot of 973 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,960 Speaker 1: a lot of football for you. I would think that, 974 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,200 Speaker 1: you know, you'd want that kind of continuation of the culture. 975 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:31,360 Speaker 1: And that's what Matthew talked about. But he also acknowledged 976 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:33,239 Speaker 1: I'm not just here to be a rab rock guy. 977 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:34,960 Speaker 1: They need me to produce on the field, and he 978 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 1: understands that. But I mean, I think another you know, 979 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 1: they asked Slater Tuesday about you know what happened, uh 980 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:42,719 Speaker 1: with what went wrong last year, and he spoke specifically 981 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 1: to the special teams and um, you know, mentioned mentioned penalties, 982 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 1: uh you know, mentioned the pun pump block team, which 983 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: we know it was an issue as well. But I 984 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 1: just thought it was interesting looking at, you know, the 985 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 1: special team snaps. I mean, it looks like they're going 986 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 1: to get rid of five of their their top special 987 00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,880 Speaker 1: team performance this year. Brandon King Brandon, Bolden, Gunner, Yakub 988 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 1: and Chase one of it. I mean, those are five 989 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 1: of your ten top ten Special teams guys, so you 990 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:07,800 Speaker 1: know there is some turnover there, and those guys aren't 991 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,360 Speaker 1: exactly Spring chickens. So they did let some old guys 992 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 1: go with that department, and I think that you know 993 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,799 Speaker 1: that's where you're going to see some change and some turnover. Yep. Uh, 994 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:20,400 Speaker 1: let's turn it over to Brian in Indiana. What's up, Brian? 995 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:25,879 Speaker 1: Bo blah? Boy, where's Paul when we need you? Oh? 996 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 1: Here we go, Yeah, here we go, you know.

What do you care? 1001 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,480 Speaker 1: Is it? Joe money? Okay, keep that same energy. I 1002 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,320 Speaker 1: gonna ever want to hear you criticize a contract again, 1003 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 1: because I've heard you do it. We all do it. Yeah, 1004 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:05,239 Speaker 1: And then uh, y'all got to keep my own duce 1005 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 1: because he's say it's all about the Lindry. But I 1006 00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: don't know when Bill ain't the coach no more? He 1007 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 1: might switch teams. Would you be happy about you'd be 1008 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: happy to have another team? Get him? I say, when 1009 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 1: Bill ain't the coaching team? Yeah no, I just I 1010 00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:25,759 Speaker 1: appreciate good coaching and I understand what that means, and 1011 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:27,840 Speaker 1: I like watching it, and I'm in no hurry to 1012 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:29,799 Speaker 1: jump off.

Now I got 1014 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 1: I got one though, And this is a Boston another 1015 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 1: Boston media trigger. And of course it came out of 1016 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 1: Duce's mouth. You mentioned some time ago, uh, you don't 1017 00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,920 Speaker 1: want to be one of these stupid teams that take chances? 1018 00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 1: Can you uh dalve into that and tell me who 1019 00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:56,440 Speaker 1: these stupid teams are and the chances they took, because 1020 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: I wish Paul was here to back me up. You 1021 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 1: you criticized La Fall, the moves they made, you mocked them, 1022 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 1: dream team, blah blah blah. They went on to win 1023 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. So that's one case. Philly, Philly was 1024 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:15,799 Speaker 1: one that me some of the stupid teams to take 1025 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,120 Speaker 1: these chances you're talking about that you don't want us 1026 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:20,360 Speaker 1: to take. Yeah, sure, they call that the teams that 1027 00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:22,760 Speaker 1: call in and we need to pay Julio Jones fourteen 1028 00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 1: million and give up a second round pick for him, 1029 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,280 Speaker 1: you know, at age thirty three, those you know, those 1030 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,719 Speaker 1: kind of moves that that that seems the media things 1031 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 1: they know how to run. Really, people people emailing you 1032 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,240 Speaker 1: saying that, oh yeah, do you listen to the shows. 1033 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:41,319 Speaker 1: Nobody won't I wanted Julio Jones, Yeah, five years ago 1034 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,719 Speaker 1: when I knew it wouldn't happen, right me too. Well, 1035 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,440 Speaker 1: all right, just take any old receiver who used to 1036 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:51,040 Speaker 1: be good, and that's what you got. Seriously, now, anybody's 1037 00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 1: asking for all receivers that we were crying about them 1038 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:59,959 Speaker 1: resigning old vets. So the whole receivership is said. Maybe 1039 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 1: Allen Robinson, and he's not as young as people think 1040 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 1: he is. He'd been in the league quite a while, 1041 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 1: but he's gotten more left in the tank at this 1042 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:11,880 Speaker 1: point in his career than Julio Jones. I haven't heard 1043 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 1: anybody really asking for all receivers. Not means at this 1044 00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:21,400 Speaker 1: point Julio Jones is done. Yeah, I agree, I agree, 1045 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:23,800 Speaker 1: but hey, this is the show. We call people calling 1046 00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 1: all the time talking about old receivers, receivers that they 1047 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,000 Speaker 1: missed on, like that for the majority of people who 1048 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,239 Speaker 1: just general fans, they think that's the way that that 1049 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:34,359 Speaker 1: you just need a number one receiver. If you have that, 1050 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 1: you're going to be good to go. So you know, 1051 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying, I think what you're taking from what I 1052 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:43,360 Speaker 1: said earlier of just the teams that do it traditionally, 1053 00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 1: the teams that do what you want, like you know, 1054 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:47,680 Speaker 1: maybe it'll make you happy. I don't know a lot 1055 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 1: of people called what the Bills did yesterday with von 1056 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 1: Miller dumb, like that was a dumb move because of 1057 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:55,439 Speaker 1: the amount of money. Yeah, because the amount of money 1058 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 1: that they have, they wouldn't call it dumb. If Bill 1059 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: signed him. And I'm gonna tell you why Bill could 1060 00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:04,920 Speaker 1: have signed him, took that same exact contract. What people 1061 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:08,799 Speaker 1: would say would his how New England would justify it? 1062 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 1: Oh well, one hundred and twenty million, don't worry about that, 1063 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 1: look at the look at the guaranteed money, and we 1064 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 1: would kick the can down the road. He ain't gonna 1065 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 1: see all six years in that one twenty. If we 1066 00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:23,200 Speaker 1: could get two three years out of him, that's good. 1067 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 1: Then that's exactly what people fred. That's what you would say, 1068 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,400 Speaker 1: and that's what the Bills are problem. I think it's 1069 00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 1: a good move. I'm all for it. I'm all for 1070 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 1: that move for the Bills where the Bills are right now. 1071 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,280 Speaker 1: Ye you got Josh Allen. You've got lightning in a bottle, 1072 00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,839 Speaker 1: right and it's a small window you now have. Get 1073 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,479 Speaker 1: me wrong, A guy that didn't think, God, I didn't 1074 00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:44,040 Speaker 1: think we would sign Vin Miller. Damn sure didn't want 1075 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:48,160 Speaker 1: him in Buffalo. But I mean, we weren't gonna sign 1076 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:52,480 Speaker 1: him to block that. But my thing is just and 1077 00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:56,359 Speaker 1: I y'all think I'll rag on Bill, and I try 1078 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:59,120 Speaker 1: not to say nothing because I don't like I don't 1079 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,360 Speaker 1: you know me and do disagree all the time. But 1080 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:04,640 Speaker 1: I like ducing on, like hurting his feelings. I love it. 1081 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 1: But I mean, I don't know, Yeah, I just I mean, look, 1082 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 1: I think this is a different, different football team for 1083 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:15,919 Speaker 1: the Patriots where they are right now. And I don't 1084 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:17,920 Speaker 1: think that they're the old Patriots. And I think that 1085 00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 1: they need to do a lot of work and they 1086 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:21,520 Speaker 1: need to hit on a lot of draft picks to 1087 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,120 Speaker 1: get where they are. We can disagree about how to 1088 00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:26,399 Speaker 1: do it. I'm just fine to sit back and watch 1089 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick do it and drive people nuts and see 1090 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 1: what he does that and that's and I'll let him 1091 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:33,840 Speaker 1: do it until he wants to go, and then I'll 1092 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:37,960 Speaker 1: be sad. Traditionally, like the you know, and what Brian 1093 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 1: said about the Rams, that worked out. They went for it. 1094 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: They worked out what the Tampa Bay did two years ago. 1095 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,440 Speaker 1: You know, they went for it. It worked out right. 1096 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 1: But but tradition, dud dudes kind of did he mocked him. 1097 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:51,920 Speaker 1: He didn't say I was stupid. I don't know. I 1098 00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 1: don't think I mocked him. That's why I said, I 1099 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 1: wish Paul y'all don't realize something about y'all being on 1100 00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:02,080 Speaker 1: the regular. We hear all the stuff y'all mother under 1101 00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:06,719 Speaker 1: your breath. Yeah, because there was this was at the time. 1102 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 1: Oh von Miller. We got to now our dream team. Man, 1103 00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 1: I got work out because, in my opinion, Vin Miller 1104 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,279 Speaker 1: won them that Super Bowl the last minute of the 1105 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:18,560 Speaker 1: last quarter of game. Yeah. Yeah. And you know the 1106 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: Patriots have done that in the past, bringing in Derel 1107 00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,360 Speaker 1: Rievers and you know, for one year and it worked 1108 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,920 Speaker 1: out and it worked out. Yeah, We've we've tried that 1109 00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:29,800 Speaker 1: in the past. James Harrison, James Harrison. Yeah, the hope 1110 00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:31,920 Speaker 1: was that he could have did with Vin and that 1111 00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:37,560 Speaker 1: what Super Bowl did he play against the Eagles? Yeah, 1112 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 1: that it plays Vin Miller. May is what we need 1113 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,280 Speaker 1: to James Harrison to do right now. And it didn't 1114 00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 1: work out. Though it didn't work out, but you know 1115 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 1: the play we need. There's there's plenty of there's plenty 1116 00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:51,120 Speaker 1: of examples both ways. And there's plenty of examples when teams, 1117 00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,480 Speaker 1: you know, pay that high pricing and it doesn't work out, 1118 00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:57,759 Speaker 1: you know, and it's just you know, so it goes 1119 00:53:57,800 --> 00:54:00,760 Speaker 1: both ways. And the Rams are in streaming. That's extreme. 1120 00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,360 Speaker 1: I mean, nobody, nobody's done that. And I mean I 1121 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,560 Speaker 1: think on this, I know, I was like, oh, I 1122 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:07,799 Speaker 1: think that's a good move bringing in Matthew Stafford. I 1123 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 1: thought that was a great move for them. Oh who 1124 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 1: didn't you know that was a good move. Yeah. I mean, 1125 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,320 Speaker 1: I I'll let that stuff go. But I mean, I 1126 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 1: think there's more than one way the skin of ks 1127 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,000 Speaker 1: Brian and I don't you know, I don't think the 1128 00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 1: Patriots way is the only way. I don't think the 1129 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:23,280 Speaker 1: Rams way is the only way. Of course, not teams, 1130 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 1: different teams win the Super Bowl every year. It's not 1131 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 1: it's not like a chemistry project. It is, but it's 1132 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:33,439 Speaker 1: human chemistry, you know. And so like you can bring 1133 00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:35,359 Speaker 1: in all the great players you want, if it just 1134 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:38,040 Speaker 1: doesn't work right on the field, it's just not gonna 1135 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 1: work because they're human beings. You can't you can't automatically 1136 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 1: say it's gonna work out. There's so many you know, 1137 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 1: different things. And that's what Robert Kraft said when he 1138 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 1: first bought the Patriots, you know, and what he said 1139 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 1: a lot of new owners to the NFL learn. You know, 1140 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 1: you're in your old business where you can control your 1141 00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,760 Speaker 1: budget and your you know, your workflow and all this stuff, 1142 00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,440 Speaker 1: and your supply chain and and you know, in football, 1143 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:06,080 Speaker 1: you know your supply chain is fifty three guys that 1144 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 1: all have different personalities, and you have no idea how 1145 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,319 Speaker 1: each year is gonna work out. You don't know how 1146 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:13,799 Speaker 1: these draft picks are gonna work out. That's what makes 1147 00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:18,520 Speaker 1: it more difficult than normal business that these owners come from, 1148 00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:22,280 Speaker 1: you know. So but it's it's good stuff. And yeah, 1149 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:25,440 Speaker 1: you do defend your own team's moves more than other teams. 1150 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:27,960 Speaker 1: You want your other other teams to fail it. You 1151 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,080 Speaker 1: wanted to believe that your team has a special sauce 1152 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:31,680 Speaker 1: and that it didn't quite work out somewhere else that 1153 00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:33,359 Speaker 1: will work out here. And the way those teams fail 1154 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:35,480 Speaker 1: is they make bad decisions and it doesn't work out, 1155 00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:37,839 Speaker 1: or they make good decisions and it still doesn't work out. 1156 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:40,839 Speaker 1: It's a risk. John's in LA. What's up, John? How 1157 00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 1: you doing good? How are you guys doing great? Hey? John? So, 1158 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:51,120 Speaker 1: I mean this is sort of a snarky Patriots fan 1159 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,240 Speaker 1: thing to say, but I mean, I think the Patriots 1160 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,880 Speaker 1: have shown that there's just because the Rams one a 1161 00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:59,239 Speaker 1: super Bowl by doing it that way, that's great. There 1162 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:01,799 Speaker 1: are many different ways it's gonnacatch. But I wouldn't put 1163 00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:05,240 Speaker 1: down the way the Patriots have done it for twenty years. 1164 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:08,959 Speaker 1: What I would put down is that, like remember back 1165 00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:11,880 Speaker 1: in the days, like when we were all posting on 1166 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: pap fans dot com. It was the early days of 1167 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:20,120 Speaker 1: the Patriots dynasty, and and the Patriots did drafting differently 1168 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:23,040 Speaker 1: from the other teams that use those sort of services, 1169 00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 1: and we sort of I felt like we did better 1170 00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 1: that way. My feeling is over the last twenty years, 1171 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:34,839 Speaker 1: the sort of draft industrial complex has gotten better. There's 1172 00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:38,880 Speaker 1: all of these draft sites. There's all these like professional scouts, 1173 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:40,640 Speaker 1: and some of them are crappy, but some of them 1174 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 1: are good. And I feel like these days, going with 1175 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:49,319 Speaker 1: what we read online makes more sense than it used 1176 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,799 Speaker 1: to back in the day before scouting became more of 1177 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: a commodity. And so I feel like last year when 1178 00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:00,520 Speaker 1: the team sort of made picks that sort of went 1179 00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:03,280 Speaker 1: with the conventional wisdom and what we were seeing online, 1180 00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: it was a good draft. Do you think that the 1181 00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:14,880 Speaker 1: change in like the the increasing widespread expertise is too strong, 1182 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:18,320 Speaker 1: But you know, like that becomes something that there's more 1183 00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 1: people involved with who are smarter at it than maybe 1184 00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 1: back in the day, in the early days. I yeah, 1185 00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:27,480 Speaker 1: now when we read something online, it's like no, no, no, 1186 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 1: that's actually good research them. There's more people going at 1187 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:34,360 Speaker 1: it because the products has gotten better. Yeah, no, I agree, 1188 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 1: the science of scouting has gotten better. Um, it's not 1189 00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 1: just an old guy with a stopwatch anymore. You know. 1190 00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 1: The dissemination of information, the exchange of information technologies, you 1191 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:53,240 Speaker 1: know us have all helped scouts evalue way players more accurately. 1192 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 1: You know, I just wonder where the line is still 1193 00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:59,919 Speaker 1: because I still think that there's a firm line between acts, 1194 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:04,440 Speaker 1: NFL teams and draft services, draft websites, those you know, 1195 00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:06,160 Speaker 1: like those kind of things. I don't know how much 1196 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:08,840 Speaker 1: crossover there is, Like I don't think the Patriots are 1197 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:12,120 Speaker 1: like consulting Pro Football Focus for their scouting needs. Like 1198 00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:15,240 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit, but you know, I still wonder 1199 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:17,000 Speaker 1: what the line is like. And I agree, like the 1200 00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:20,520 Speaker 1: proliferation of everyone's a draft expert and there's a thousand 1201 00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:22,080 Speaker 1: mock drafts now where like you used to have to 1202 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:24,439 Speaker 1: wait for like a select three to come out. Yeah, 1203 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 1: you know, so it's I mean, it's an interesting point. 1204 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:29,760 Speaker 1: I mean I also see John like do we all 1205 00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 1: think we're all experts now? And that's why it's easier 1206 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:34,960 Speaker 1: to second guess because we think we have the information 1207 00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 1: when I just wonder how how much reality there is? 1208 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 1: What is what is a you know? Like I mean 1209 00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:43,240 Speaker 1: and I go to all these websites like, uh, you know, 1210 00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 1: Draft Network and you know, PFF, all those ones, But 1211 00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:49,400 Speaker 1: I just wonder how similar are those what the real 1212 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:51,680 Speaker 1: guys actually have, Like is there is are there really 1213 00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:54,760 Speaker 1: is that? Really? Are they really even in the same vicinity? Well, 1214 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:57,480 Speaker 1: don't look when I talk about information I'm not talking 1215 00:58:57,480 --> 00:59:01,479 Speaker 1: about our lads and Pete. I'm talking about how they 1216 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 1: are able to get like you know, there's um they 1217 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:08,200 Speaker 1: call it exos, yeah, you know, but there's way the 1218 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:12,760 Speaker 1: tape is eating more readily available on players. The databases 1219 00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:15,520 Speaker 1: are more sophisticated. And sure I'm talking about that type 1220 00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,480 Speaker 1: of thing, right, you know, but they are they all. 1221 00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:20,400 Speaker 1: Is it possible as scouts are talking more to these 1222 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:23,480 Speaker 1: people or that, or the former scouts are now of 1223 00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:26,760 Speaker 1: those websites or something so that there's actually more more 1224 00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:33,320 Speaker 1: sophistication than there used to be. Well, I think it's certainly, certainly, John, 1225 00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:35,520 Speaker 1: Like when we were when we were growing up, there 1226 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:38,280 Speaker 1: was like mel Kiper was the one and only draft 1227 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:41,560 Speaker 1: person on earth who spent like three hundred and sixty 1228 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 1: five days of the year studying the draft. Some who 1229 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 1: wasn't part of an NFL organization. He was the He 1230 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:50,440 Speaker 1: had his own you know, cottage industry doing that. And 1231 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:53,840 Speaker 1: then people as the draft started becoming more popular, more 1232 00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:56,000 Speaker 1: people started doing it. And some of these you know, 1233 00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:58,680 Speaker 1: guys like Dan Jeremiah, who I think was a scouting 1234 00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:02,080 Speaker 1: role at one point, Mike Mayock who played like guys 1235 01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:05,200 Speaker 1: who played and think they can do it well, started 1236 01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 1: doing it, and some of them, Uh, what's his name 1237 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:12,320 Speaker 1: from ESPN? No, Uh, he did Monday Night Football. Why 1238 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:13,840 Speaker 1: am I not being able to think of his name? 1239 01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 1: Just this past year? What's his name? It was up 1240 01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:21,800 Speaker 1: for the GM job. Yeah, I can't think of his 1241 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 1: name off the top of my head. But like you know, 1242 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:27,600 Speaker 1: he worked in in scouting, in personnel, went to broadcasting, 1243 01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:30,640 Speaker 1: maybe was thinking about going back into it, like some 1244 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:34,600 Speaker 1: of these guys have that experience. But I don't think 1245 01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:38,080 Speaker 1: you can call any of these people draft experts because 1246 01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:41,120 Speaker 1: nobody is an expert at drafting. Not even the people 1247 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:43,520 Speaker 1: who do it for a living are experts, because if 1248 01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 1: they were, they'd be paying millions of dollars for their 1249 01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:51,280 Speaker 1: services every year. The draft is such an inexact thing, 1250 01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:54,240 Speaker 1: even for the people whose job it is to do 1251 01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:58,160 Speaker 1: it for an NFL team never get it right, perfectly right. 1252 01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 1: You hit some years, you don't other years. You hit 1253 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 1: with one guy in one round, you don't in another. 1254 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,840 Speaker 1: It's such an inexact thing that it's it's almost impossible 1255 01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 1: to call anybody a draft expert. Yeah. Another thing I've 1256 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:15,000 Speaker 1: noticed over the same period of time is that back 1257 01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:18,920 Speaker 1: in the day, like the first half of the dynasty, 1258 01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:22,560 Speaker 1: it seems like Belichick was so in the front office, 1259 01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:26,360 Speaker 1: was so painstaking about like they would get such value 1260 01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:29,120 Speaker 1: in the trade. I'm not every trade wasn't perfect, but 1261 01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:32,120 Speaker 1: so often it seems like they worked their asses off 1262 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:36,680 Speaker 1: to get an unbelievable value in draft pick compensation for 1263 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:39,600 Speaker 1: a player or vice versa. And it does seem over 1264 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:42,240 Speaker 1: the last ten years. And I really think of Jimmy 1265 01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:45,440 Speaker 1: G thing, but I also think of like, certainly the 1266 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:50,120 Speaker 1: Mason thing obviously, is you know, in the last few days, 1267 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:56,280 Speaker 1: there's this attitude that feels less like, less effort, like 1268 01:01:57,680 --> 01:01:59,760 Speaker 1: just give me this, you know. I mean, well, I 1269 01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:02,240 Speaker 1: think not imagine. I think part of that John is 1270 01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 1: the Patriot. Back in the earlier days of the dynasty, 1271 01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:07,880 Speaker 1: the Patriots were were trading from a position of strength, 1272 01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:12,240 Speaker 1: and now they're not. I think other teams have more 1273 01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,520 Speaker 1: of the advantage, you know, and can say, well, huh, 1274 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:16,400 Speaker 1: you don't want to trade for that. But I feel like, 1275 01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:19,120 Speaker 1: but you think what Jimmy G we were still winning 1276 01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:22,880 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. There seemed to be just like whatever, just 1277 01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:25,040 Speaker 1: give me a this, And it didn't feel like he 1278 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 1: used to the end I mean, I think we overpay 1279 01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:31,920 Speaker 1: now in ways that we never used to, and we 1280 01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 1: under accept payment now like we didn't use to. It 1281 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:38,880 Speaker 1: could be a lot of the rest of the league 1282 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 1: catching up to the Patriots. You know, you know, a 1283 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:44,360 Speaker 1: lot of this is, you know, investment in your scouting department. 1284 01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:47,240 Speaker 1: And not all believe it or not, not all teams 1285 01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 1: did that and now they are you know, now even 1286 01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals infest in their scouting department. I'm glad John 1287 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:56,680 Speaker 1: brought up the Jimmy G thing because looking back on 1288 01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 1: it now, Jimmy G for a second rounder.

So I'll guarantee you when if they 1455 01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:11,120 Speaker 1: lose the Super Bowl, you'll get the Mark Daniels or 1456 01:13:11,160 --> 01:13:14,000 Speaker 1: the world will say, see, that's why you can't win 1457 01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:17,160 Speaker 1: that way. He'll be all over your Twitter. I'm gonna 1458 01:13:17,160 --> 01:13:18,840 Speaker 1: tee it up and say, well, let's see how many 1459 01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:21,320 Speaker 1: they can win without any first round picks for the 1460 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:23,719 Speaker 1: next two seasons. That'll be mine. It is. It doesn't 1461 01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:26,000 Speaker 1: matter that, it doesn't matter. For five years in a row, 1462 01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:27,680 Speaker 1: they've been in the playoffs and one games in the 1463 01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:32,120 Speaker 1: playoffs and window close. It's the way they've done It 1464 01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:34,360 Speaker 1: is wrong, good Mike, and that's the way Patriots fans 1465 01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:39,080 Speaker 1: will take. So Fred says he likes the vitriol. Fine, 1466 01:13:39,120 --> 01:13:41,559 Speaker 1: you're allowed to like the vitriol. The rest of us 1467 01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:43,680 Speaker 1: who don't like the vitriol should be allowed not to 1468 01:13:43,720 --> 01:13:46,040 Speaker 1: like the vitriol. We just want to watch a good game. 1469 01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:48,519 Speaker 1: I know whoever wins wins that wouldn't care less. That's 1470 01:13:48,520 --> 01:13:51,800 Speaker 1: a week. It doesn't a week, sauce. I don't necessarily 1471 01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:53,559 Speaker 1: have a problem with you, Okay, So if you don't 1472 01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:57,400 Speaker 1: agree with Fred, I can just see you know with 1473 01:13:57,439 --> 01:14:01,439 Speaker 1: his tweet jacket and his Scotch just you know, oh 1474 01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:10,080 Speaker 1: splendid games, Oh boys, splendid. That's another great moment from 1475 01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:14,680 Speaker 1: all right. Welcome back to Patriots on filtered A five 1476 01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:16,840 Speaker 1: five Pats five hundred is the ace ticket, hut line 1477 01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:20,040 Speaker 1: web radio at Patriots dot com is the email address. Deuce, 1478 01:14:20,120 --> 01:14:22,639 Speaker 1: you're smiling. Well, I just thought that was topical based 1479 01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:25,880 Speaker 1: on what they accused me of U of saying that 1480 01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:28,120 Speaker 1: they were gonna they weren't gonna win I and that's 1481 01:14:28,120 --> 01:14:30,760 Speaker 1: what I still have the same point. We'll see how 1482 01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:33,280 Speaker 1: they how they are able to sustain me. I remember 1483 01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:37,120 Speaker 1: the year, you know, the all in year. Um they 1484 01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,960 Speaker 1: got Brandon Cooks and you know, they traded for him, 1485 01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:42,680 Speaker 1: and you know, people were saying, oh, the Patriots are 1486 01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:45,200 Speaker 1: all in, all in, like you know, if they don't 1487 01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:47,639 Speaker 1: do that, they're not all in, you know, it's they're 1488 01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:50,080 Speaker 1: all kind, they're always I think I think the Patriots, 1489 01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:54,280 Speaker 1: much like every other team, look at opportunity and take 1490 01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:57,160 Speaker 1: advantage of it when they see it. It's just what's 1491 01:14:57,160 --> 01:15:00,760 Speaker 1: your definition of opportunity, you know, And some teams are 1492 01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:03,160 Speaker 1: different than others, you know. And I think the Patriots 1493 01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:06,880 Speaker 1: at least, you know, through the dynasty, have had a 1494 01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:10,080 Speaker 1: different you know, opinion of what opportunity is and what 1495 01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:12,760 Speaker 1: value is in terms of a player. Now, I think 1496 01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:14,719 Speaker 1: they have to change a little bit because they don't 1497 01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:17,479 Speaker 1: have Tom Brady. Yeah, yeah, And I mean I think 1498 01:15:17,520 --> 01:15:20,760 Speaker 1: it starts in as eighty percent the draft. He's just 1499 01:15:21,280 --> 01:15:24,400 Speaker 1: you need to hit on these draft picks otherwise. I mean, 1500 01:15:24,439 --> 01:15:28,320 Speaker 1: it's just you talk about the the lack of guys 1501 01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:30,400 Speaker 1: on the roster that you like or that you even 1502 01:15:30,439 --> 01:15:32,639 Speaker 1: want to extend right now, and that's a direct result 1503 01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:35,479 Speaker 1: of the miss drafts that that they had, and you 1504 01:15:35,479 --> 01:15:38,240 Speaker 1: just you need to rebuild that core. And you know, 1505 01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:40,040 Speaker 1: no matter what they do in the next couple of weeks, 1506 01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm sure they'll do some stuff to fill things out, 1507 01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:44,400 Speaker 1: but I don't think that's going to really matter two 1508 01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:46,680 Speaker 1: three years down the road. It's gonna matter how the 1509 01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:48,760 Speaker 1: picks go in April and how you know, did did 1510 01:15:48,800 --> 01:15:51,639 Speaker 1: you get anybody to emerge from these draft picks that 1511 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:54,120 Speaker 1: haven't yet emerged? And you know, is there anything there 1512 01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:57,679 Speaker 1: that that you haven't quite una tapped yet. That's that's 1513 01:15:57,680 --> 01:16:00,240 Speaker 1: the question. Let's get back to the ace to get 1514 01:16:00,280 --> 01:16:06,760 Speaker 1: hot line. Steve's in South Carolina. Hey Steve, Steve. Ah, 1515 01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:09,160 Speaker 1: he hung on for half an hour and then he's 1516 01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:13,080 Speaker 1: just gone. We'll go to Patty and agawam, what's up Patty? 1517 01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:21,120 Speaker 1: Faith slant half happy day buying Saint Patty.

This is kind 1524 01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:46,200 Speaker 1: of like what I've been doing, I know over the 1525 01:16:46,200 --> 01:16:48,160 Speaker 1: past couple of weeks. But throw a name out at 1526 01:16:48,160 --> 01:16:51,679 Speaker 1: you guys for I think if they end up double 1527 01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:54,240 Speaker 1: dipping at cornerback and if they pick a guy like 1528 01:16:54,320 --> 01:16:58,320 Speaker 1: maybe in the like a late day two early day 1529 01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:03,720 Speaker 1: three Alabama guy names Josh job yep, and he's uh, 1530 01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:06,639 Speaker 1: he's a little bit raw and he can play special teams. 1531 01:17:06,720 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 1: And I just wanted to know with any of you 1532 01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:12,280 Speaker 1: guys had a chance to take a look at him, 1533 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:15,200 Speaker 1: induce I love you, buddy.

It's 1537 01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:24,960 Speaker 1: so fun. I know that people are checking in on 1538 01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:26,960 Speaker 1: me and social media like I'm in a ball crying 1539 01:17:27,080 --> 01:17:29,240 Speaker 1: right now. But now I appreciate I appreciate it. It's 1540 01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:32,080 Speaker 1: all right, this is what this is what free agency's 1541 01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:33,920 Speaker 1: all about. Right, he can't get mad and yelled at 1542 01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:36,760 Speaker 1: each other. I mean, we've gone through a lot of 1543 01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:39,519 Speaker 1: off seasons where it starts out and Patriots fans are like, 1544 01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:42,479 Speaker 1: what are they doing? More often most seasons? Yeah, most 1545 01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:47,439 Speaker 1: more often than not. Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, Patty, 1546 01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:50,680 Speaker 1: thanks for the call. Oh yes, he professed his love 1547 01:17:50,720 --> 01:17:52,519 Speaker 1: for me and then he didn't ask question, was that 1548 01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:55,519 Speaker 1: just last part? I've seen a little bit of of job. Yeah, 1549 01:17:56,439 --> 01:17:58,960 Speaker 1: Alabama guy, and I think he's kind of fits. I 1550 01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:01,080 Speaker 1: think it's a good uh. He's a good kind of 1551 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:03,000 Speaker 1: guy that they need for sure. Double dip but wide 1552 01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:06,320 Speaker 1: receiver writing Trent McDuffie from Washington probably my favorite. But 1553 01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:09,240 Speaker 1: I think those guys later though. No, he's a he'd 1554 01:18:09,240 --> 01:18:11,280 Speaker 1: be a first round up there. There's a lot of 1555 01:18:11,320 --> 01:18:14,200 Speaker 1: guys holding breath about. I mean, you saw Bill and 1556 01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:17,320 Speaker 1: Matt Patricia were at at Georgia yesterday and I was 1557 01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:19,439 Speaker 1: I was saying upstairs with like, it's funny to think that, 1558 01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:22,400 Speaker 1: like he could literally grab three of these Georgia guys 1559 01:18:22,479 --> 01:18:24,519 Speaker 1: and remake the defen Like just call that the draft. 1560 01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:27,760 Speaker 1: Just grab three of them. Yeah, and you're probably like 1561 01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:29,800 Speaker 1: your core, your next defense, right. And I don't want 1562 01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:32,439 Speaker 1: to turn this into a draft show, but question, do 1563 01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:34,400 Speaker 1: you think there will be a quarterback? Take it in 1564 01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:36,920 Speaker 1: the first round? This? Yeah? Oh, they'll be like three 1565 01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 1: of them real right now. I mean, if you if 1566 01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:41,240 Speaker 1: you believe any of the mock drafts and take all 1567 01:18:41,240 --> 01:18:43,000 Speaker 1: those with as many greens as salt as you like. 1568 01:18:43,160 --> 01:18:46,160 Speaker 1: But I'm seeing sometimes it's even four quarterbacks going in 1569 01:18:46,200 --> 01:18:48,599 Speaker 1: the first round. It's it seems ridiculous. Well that would 1570 01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:51,000 Speaker 1: be great because that's good for the Patriots. Well sure, 1571 01:18:51,280 --> 01:18:54,200 Speaker 1: but I don't know if these teams are just gonna 1572 01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:56,640 Speaker 1: reach for some of these guys. You don't see I 1573 01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,040 Speaker 1: heard it. It's not a very good draft a quarters, 1574 01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:02,360 Speaker 1: I know, but are teams that there's always teams that 1575 01:19:02,439 --> 01:19:05,639 Speaker 1: need quarterbacks and they always overreach. I think someone will 1576 01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:08,519 Speaker 1: take a shot on Malik Willis. M I saw him 1577 01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:11,400 Speaker 1: going sixth overall or something, probably a little high. But 1578 01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:14,720 Speaker 1: him and him and Kenny two gloves pick it um, 1579 01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:16,599 Speaker 1: small hands and all. But I think those two guys 1580 01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:19,040 Speaker 1: would probably go someone will take a take a shot 1581 01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 1: on him. But a flyer A flyer um because if 1582 01:19:22,080 --> 01:19:24,920 Speaker 1: you don't get them, then you know you gotta you 1583 01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:27,599 Speaker 1: gotta take a swing. I guess it's but I wouldn't. 1584 01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:30,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't draft any of those guys before twenty at best. 1585 01:19:30,439 --> 01:19:32,080 Speaker 1: But I think they'll go in the team. I think 1586 01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:34,040 Speaker 1: there are teams that are gonna reach yeah see I 1587 01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:36,040 Speaker 1: and that'll that You're right, it'll help New England because 1588 01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:37,880 Speaker 1: a better player will drop down. I mean I think 1589 01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:40,679 Speaker 1: Willis is a you know, got a lot of physical talent. 1590 01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:42,960 Speaker 1: And I mean anybody saw the video. There's video of 1591 01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:45,400 Speaker 1: him in Indie, right outside of Saint Elmo stopping and 1592 01:19:45,479 --> 01:19:47,880 Speaker 1: like unloading a bag for a homeless guy and giving 1593 01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:49,880 Speaker 1: him a bunch of stuff, which was, you know, cool 1594 01:19:49,920 --> 01:19:52,559 Speaker 1: to see. So who is this Malik Willis? Oh? Yeah, 1595 01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:53,920 Speaker 1: because it was funny. It was like right in front 1596 01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:55,960 Speaker 1: of Saint Elmos. It's like such oh, there's that old sign. 1597 01:19:56,000 --> 01:19:58,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, so that was cool to see. I mean, 1598 01:19:58,320 --> 01:20:00,720 Speaker 1: I think he's just one of those guys that intangibles 1599 01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:02,599 Speaker 1: and you know, has it, has it, has it? Definitely 1600 01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:07,720 Speaker 1: a strong arm too. Rashad's in Baltimore. What's up? Rashad? Hey, 1601 01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:12,280 Speaker 1: what's up? What's up? I had two things, I guess. First, First, 1602 01:20:12,320 --> 01:20:18,040 Speaker 1: on the staff, the offensive line. Um, I'm thinking, I'm 1603 01:20:18,080 --> 01:20:20,120 Speaker 1: thinking it's gonna be it's gonna be a big issue 1604 01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:23,560 Speaker 1: Niven this year. It's going forward, because what are you 1605 01:20:23,600 --> 01:20:25,840 Speaker 1: gonna do with when Like, I don't think they're gonna 1606 01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:30,679 Speaker 1: pick up his fifty year option. I don't think, yeah, 1607 01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:33,880 Speaker 1: this is the fifth Yeah, this last year, they last 1608 01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:37,200 Speaker 1: spring they did, but like even like next year, and like, 1609 01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:39,720 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna sign him and keep them. 1610 01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:43,120 Speaker 1: So that just means we're gonna have another opening on 1611 01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:46,120 Speaker 1: the offensive line. Wow, let's get through this year first, 1612 01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:48,920 Speaker 1: Let's see what they do this year. Yeah, but I'm 1613 01:20:49,760 --> 01:20:52,320 Speaker 1: worried about twenty twenty three yet, I think left tackles 1614 01:20:52,479 --> 01:20:57,000 Speaker 1: a spot to watch. That's why Bernard Reisman, Yeah, forgive 1615 01:20:57,080 --> 01:21:02,560 Speaker 1: my Austrian um, but I think the left tackle absolutely, 1616 01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:04,599 Speaker 1: I mean that's not something that's going to be sexy 1617 01:21:04,640 --> 01:21:07,920 Speaker 1: and exciting. But like you said, wins up, you don't 1618 01:21:07,920 --> 01:21:13,880 Speaker 1: know who's the right tackles. We're hearing that somebody Matt 1619 01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:17,479 Speaker 1: Morrel is not back there yet cratching record right, And 1620 01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:21,479 Speaker 1: I guess I can. I think I think that we 1621 01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:23,240 Speaker 1: I think that we have to we have to be 1622 01:21:23,280 --> 01:21:25,479 Speaker 1: able to uh like it has to be some type 1623 01:21:25,479 --> 01:21:30,040 Speaker 1: of accountability, like with the Patriots, the front office build, 1624 01:21:30,280 --> 01:21:32,720 Speaker 1: like even Robert Craft, like it has to be some 1625 01:21:32,760 --> 01:21:35,600 Speaker 1: type of accountability. And I know, I know that, you know, 1626 01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:39,160 Speaker 1: they're still like, you know, when when when Now we're 1627 01:21:39,160 --> 01:21:41,559 Speaker 1: trying to win, you know, we're trying to compete. But 1628 01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:45,280 Speaker 1: it's I mean, like maybe it's like maybe you like 1629 01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:47,920 Speaker 1: you don't like you don't have to try some people championship. 1630 01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:50,599 Speaker 1: Just try to just build your young core, builds around 1631 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:53,840 Speaker 1: your quarterback and then you can compete the yeah and that. 1632 01:21:54,320 --> 01:21:56,640 Speaker 1: But it's like the way they're going about it now, 1633 01:21:56,960 --> 01:21:59,960 Speaker 1: like you're not we're not we're not going to get there, 1634 01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:02,280 Speaker 1: We're not can't get nowhere. So it's like, I don't know, 1635 01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:04,080 Speaker 1: do you think if they signed like three or four 1636 01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:06,040 Speaker 1: guys in the next week that you're that your opinion 1637 01:22:06,320 --> 01:22:10,920 Speaker 1: might change. It depends. It depends who the players all 1638 01:22:11,200 --> 01:22:13,840 Speaker 1: and maybe the aide stuff like that, because I don't 1639 01:22:13,840 --> 01:22:21,400 Speaker 1: want like, I don't want to old people. I want 1640 01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:24,559 Speaker 1: im an like that, but I want to I want 1641 01:22:24,560 --> 01:22:28,040 Speaker 1: a nice young athletic team. I mean, it's good, it's 1642 01:22:28,040 --> 01:22:29,880 Speaker 1: good to have some old bat like, it's good to 1643 01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:33,920 Speaker 1: have some some back three of them the people around. 1644 01:22:34,840 --> 01:22:38,040 Speaker 1: But like it's just it's just the way the league is. 1645 01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:40,960 Speaker 1: The league is changing, and I'm with you. I'm with 1646 01:22:41,040 --> 01:22:43,320 Speaker 1: your shot. I'm like, like the way the way the 1647 01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:46,120 Speaker 1: Patriots are going twenty years from down, the way we 1648 01:22:46,160 --> 01:22:49,240 Speaker 1: talk about Cowboys and the Cowboys fans think when we're 1649 01:22:49,280 --> 01:22:52,400 Speaker 1: talking about us, and we're living in the past. So 1650 01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:56,000 Speaker 1: I'm just trying, like, let's let's do something we you know, 1651 01:22:56,120 --> 01:22:58,280 Speaker 1: we we you know, we can do something now side 1652 01:22:58,600 --> 01:23:00,639 Speaker 1: like yeah, we were good back and we were good 1653 01:23:00,800 --> 01:23:03,760 Speaker 1: la la la. Yeah. I don't want to be that. 1654 01:23:04,360 --> 01:23:06,720 Speaker 1: I'm with you there, R Shot. I do not want 1655 01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:10,040 Speaker 1: to be accused of living in the past, you know, 1656 01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:13,720 Speaker 1: like we make fun of other teams sometimes, so I 1657 01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:19,280 Speaker 1: don't Speeds and friends, Now, what's up? Speed under your breath? Yeah, yo. Uh, 1658 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:23,599 Speaker 1: you can really stretch out today, Paul getting in your way. Yeah, 1659 01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:25,639 Speaker 1: I know, it's a I'm flexing a little bit now. 1660 01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:29,320 Speaker 1: Now it's good. It's fun. Uh, Paul's great. I mean, 1661 01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:31,360 Speaker 1: I don't think i'd say anything I wouldn't say with 1662 01:23:31,439 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 1: him here, so he'd just be yelling at me. Yeah, 1663 01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:36,400 Speaker 1: interjected I wouldn't be able to get it all out. 1664 01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:39,519 Speaker 1: You're still miliar. You say you're supposed to make fun 1665 01:23:39,560 --> 01:23:41,879 Speaker 1: of the guy who's not there, like there's more oxygen 1666 01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:43,800 Speaker 1: in the room because the big No. Because no, because 1667 01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:46,160 Speaker 1: then Matmorrel goes through and picks them at all, all 1668 01:23:46,160 --> 01:23:48,360 Speaker 1: the specific moments that everything you say about him, and 1669 01:23:48,360 --> 01:23:50,479 Speaker 1: then it's in the open next week and then he's 1670 01:23:50,520 --> 01:23:55,800 Speaker 1: staring dagger said, are you afraid of Paul? No? Mat 1671 01:23:55,800 --> 01:24:03,479 Speaker 1: Morrell's cleverly edited opens that uh um. Under the the resigning, 1672 01:24:03,560 --> 01:24:05,880 Speaker 1: I know, I know it's just three guys. I'm not 1673 01:24:05,920 --> 01:24:08,679 Speaker 1: over reacting to McCarthy James White's later thing. I don't 1674 01:24:08,680 --> 01:24:12,280 Speaker 1: mind the specific resignings, but my concern is kind of 1675 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:15,679 Speaker 1: like the broader patterns Bill running it back with older 1676 01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 1: guys not leading into the young guys. It's kind of 1677 01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:20,639 Speaker 1: like the Paul Fred argument. Um, I just think God 1678 01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:22,760 Speaker 1: has a tendency to play favorites with old leaders, with 1679 01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:25,280 Speaker 1: special teams guys, you know, pass things up with the 1680 01:24:25,360 --> 01:24:27,920 Speaker 1: Van Noy or column instead of rolling the dice with 1681 01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:30,120 Speaker 1: the young players. I said that last year's speed do 1682 01:24:30,160 --> 01:24:32,360 Speaker 1: you remember? Do you remember when I made that exact 1683 01:24:32,400 --> 01:24:35,040 Speaker 1: point and used that exact phraseology and Fred got mad 1684 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:38,000 Speaker 1: at me. I know, but what what if? What if? 1685 01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:40,400 Speaker 1: You know? They brought in van Noy and brought back 1686 01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:43,320 Speaker 1: high Tower, and they were hoping that these other guys 1687 01:24:43,360 --> 01:24:45,240 Speaker 1: would beat him out and they just didn't do it, 1688 01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:50,479 Speaker 1: or maybe he just was stubborn and said, these are 1689 01:24:50,520 --> 01:24:52,160 Speaker 1: my guys, and these are the ones I can win 1690 01:24:52,200 --> 01:24:54,280 Speaker 1: with because I know they've done it before, and the 1691 01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:56,920 Speaker 1: younger guys gonna have to wait. I and they were 1692 01:24:56,920 --> 01:24:58,960 Speaker 1: winning seven games in a row and they said, oh who, 1693 01:24:59,040 --> 01:25:01,200 Speaker 1: it's working and all of sudden reality here. And that's 1694 01:25:01,240 --> 01:25:04,160 Speaker 1: a maybe. But like, I just gotta believe if Josh 1695 01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:07,360 Speaker 1: Huchet was that good, he'd have been playing more. He 1696 01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:10,400 Speaker 1: just never showed it. I mean, you can't believe. I 1697 01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:12,559 Speaker 1: gotta I gotta believe what my eyes are showing me. 1698 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:17,280 Speaker 1: And it's he's what it looks like. But Fred refuses 1699 01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:19,160 Speaker 1: to believe that Bill can make an I just think 1700 01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:21,080 Speaker 1: it's I just think it's I didn't I didn't look 1701 01:25:21,120 --> 01:25:24,040 Speaker 1: at the old slow Patriots and thought Devin mccordy, I 1702 01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:26,200 Speaker 1: thought the linebackers were the problem. They haven't brought back 1703 01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:28,400 Speaker 1: the linebackers. They're not running it back with the linebackers 1704 01:25:28,479 --> 01:25:30,559 Speaker 1: right now. So like I just I don't think it's 1705 01:25:30,600 --> 01:25:34,800 Speaker 1: totally apples. But we had a big argument about it. 1706 01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:37,280 Speaker 1: We come last year, two young running backs, right, You've 1707 01:25:37,280 --> 01:25:39,639 Speaker 1: got a safety you just drafted and another one that's 1708 01:25:39,680 --> 01:25:41,960 Speaker 1: still in his twenties that you just extended. Like, those 1709 01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:44,240 Speaker 1: aren't positions where I felt like we're old and slow. 1710 01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:46,320 Speaker 1: The positions were they're old and slow, they're not running 1711 01:25:46,320 --> 01:25:48,400 Speaker 1: it back. They're they're not you know, if not this year, 1712 01:25:48,479 --> 01:25:51,040 Speaker 1: if they resigned high Tower and van Noy Collins right now, 1713 01:25:51,080 --> 01:25:53,200 Speaker 1: I would be on on the side of everybody who's 1714 01:25:53,240 --> 01:25:54,880 Speaker 1: calling in saying the old and by the way, so 1715 01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:57,000 Speaker 1: would I. You know, it's but I just don't think 1716 01:25:57,040 --> 01:25:59,360 Speaker 1: I think those positions are They're fine for what they are. 1717 01:25:59,520 --> 01:26:02,080 Speaker 1: James why, I mean, he's he's got a contract. That's 1718 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:04,880 Speaker 1: you got to prove it, like it's I know. I 1719 01:26:05,160 --> 01:26:07,120 Speaker 1: just think if if you, if you think back to 1720 01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:08,920 Speaker 1: the big plays that they gave up in the passing 1721 01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:11,680 Speaker 1: game last year, Devin mccordy was involved in a lot 1722 01:26:11,680 --> 01:26:13,680 Speaker 1: of those, and I think, and I think that's what 1723 01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:17,519 Speaker 1: people I think that's what people are remembering most when 1724 01:26:17,560 --> 01:26:21,880 Speaker 1: they see that he was brought back this year, they're thinking, like, well, 1725 01:26:21,960 --> 01:26:23,680 Speaker 1: he was one of the problems. I'm Mike. At the 1726 01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:27,800 Speaker 1: same time, I do agree it's still earliest. Only March 1727 01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:30,599 Speaker 1: will wait and see. I'm just reacting to what I'm 1728 01:26:30,640 --> 01:26:34,320 Speaker 1: seeing you respondings now, and I'm like biting my nails. 1729 01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:36,439 Speaker 1: Thing is are we going to go back there? And 1730 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:39,400 Speaker 1: it's it's reasonable to be concerned about it, that's all. Yeah, Well, 1731 01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 1: I mean, and that's the fun of it is what 1732 01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:43,679 Speaker 1: direction is it going every year? But again, there's gonna 1733 01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:46,439 Speaker 1: be twenty five more guys on the roster, so you know, 1734 01:26:46,479 --> 01:26:49,599 Speaker 1: it's not gonna be random dudes left and right. It's 1735 01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:51,599 Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna be some players that still come in. 1736 01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:53,680 Speaker 1: But I get you, like this is this is the 1737 01:26:53,720 --> 01:26:55,920 Speaker 1: fun of this show and why I mean, Jordan Richards 1738 01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:59,519 Speaker 1: are still available, right.

They don't have a charter for all you 1781 01:29:13,439 --> 01:29:18,400 Speaker 1: are you guys, I'm no, that was a serious question. 1782 01:29:18,439 --> 01:29:19,680 Speaker 1: I didn't know. I don't know how. You guys A 1783 01:29:19,680 --> 01:29:21,640 Speaker 1: lot of people that go to those things, So there 1784 01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:23,360 Speaker 1: are a lot of people that go on our trips. 1785 01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:26,120 Speaker 1: We all live in different parts of the country, so 1786 01:29:26,280 --> 01:29:28,879 Speaker 1: everyone lives everywhere. Oh so they're not and not everyone's 1787 01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:32,000 Speaker 1: based in Orlando. No, And they moved me here at 1788 01:29:32,040 --> 01:29:34,040 Speaker 1: the beginning so I could kind of like learn there's 1789 01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:36,040 Speaker 1: a facility down here. And they actually told me I 1790 01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:38,559 Speaker 1: can live wherever I want. Now we'll see where I 1791 01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:40,720 Speaker 1: end up. Well that's cool. Well, Megan, I gotta tell 1792 01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:43,600 Speaker 1: you we on Tuesday show we went two hours and 1793 01:29:43,680 --> 01:29:47,320 Speaker 1: didn't mention Tom Brady his unretirement at all. And I 1794 01:29:47,360 --> 01:29:49,120 Speaker 1: know you have strong thoughts about it, so do you 1795 01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:52,080 Speaker 1: want to try and end? How did you not mention it? 1796 01:29:52,160 --> 01:29:57,000 Speaker 1: We totally forgot just what the Patriots are doing, and 1797 01:29:57,040 --> 01:29:59,559 Speaker 1: we just totally forgot about Tom Brady. We talked about 1798 01:29:59,560 --> 01:30:01,200 Speaker 1: it in the off us upstairs, and I think that 1799 01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:04,160 Speaker 1: was like psychologically we thought, okay, we talked about it, 1800 01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:05,840 Speaker 1: but it never just never came out you guys are 1801 01:30:05,880 --> 01:30:10,040 Speaker 1: the reason he keeps doing it unimportant. Well, as Chris 1802 01:30:10,040 --> 01:30:12,720 Speaker 1: Ferrera told us this morning, we should have said, well, Tom, 1803 01:30:12,720 --> 01:30:16,960 Speaker 1: you didn't mention us either, So there you go. I 1804 01:30:17,040 --> 01:30:19,920 Speaker 1: just I mean, I know, Patriots man's get really mad 1805 01:30:19,920 --> 01:30:22,680 Speaker 1: at me, like Martha's a gate lady. He blocked me 1806 01:30:22,720 --> 01:30:27,599 Speaker 1: on Twitter, absolutely insane. But we all know I'm not. 1807 01:30:27,800 --> 01:30:29,599 Speaker 1: I'm not a Brady person. I was a Brady prison 1808 01:30:29,640 --> 01:30:33,479 Speaker 1: when he was with the Patriots. But he's not the same, right, Fred, 1809 01:30:33,560 --> 01:30:37,800 Speaker 1: can't even you agree he's changed. Yeah, I have a 1810 01:30:37,960 --> 01:30:40,800 Speaker 1: stain that. Yeah, Fred's dealing with cleaning his high pin. No, 1811 01:30:40,920 --> 01:30:43,000 Speaker 1: I agree with you, Megan, Like I love Tom, I 1812 01:30:43,040 --> 01:30:45,600 Speaker 1: still love Tom. But this whole coming back is not 1813 01:30:45,680 --> 01:30:47,880 Speaker 1: a good look. Well, the whole retiring in the first 1814 01:30:47,880 --> 01:30:51,080 Speaker 1: place just had a weird awkwardness to it, Like it's 1815 01:30:51,120 --> 01:30:52,920 Speaker 1: like I just kind of forced into it. The whole 1816 01:30:52,960 --> 01:30:55,960 Speaker 1: thing is just ridiculous. My fear several years ago, I 1817 01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:58,760 Speaker 1: said when Brett Favre was doing his thing with like 1818 01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:01,479 Speaker 1: flirting with coming back in retirement, and that wasn't a 1819 01:31:01,479 --> 01:31:03,479 Speaker 1: good look. That wasn't a good look. And my fear 1820 01:31:03,520 --> 01:31:05,120 Speaker 1: at the time, and I said it on the show, 1821 01:31:05,240 --> 01:31:07,679 Speaker 1: was I hope Brady doesn't end up like that and 1822 01:31:07,800 --> 01:31:10,800 Speaker 1: here we are. Yeah, yeah, so, I mean I guess 1823 01:31:10,800 --> 01:31:14,360 Speaker 1: the difference is he's still great. Yeah, I mean, I 1824 01:31:14,400 --> 01:31:17,280 Speaker 1: know he's going to come back and still play unbelievable 1825 01:31:17,400 --> 01:31:19,080 Speaker 1: and I respect him. That's what people are like, Oh, 1826 01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:20,800 Speaker 1: you're such a hater. He's the best ever. I'm like, 1827 01:31:21,000 --> 01:31:24,879 Speaker 1: no argument, he's the best ever. I'm just so annoyed 1828 01:31:24,920 --> 01:31:28,400 Speaker 1: with his poet. Yeah. I didn't like that either. I 1829 01:31:28,439 --> 01:31:31,400 Speaker 1: have to admit. Yeah, it's poor to me, it's poor 1830 01:31:31,400 --> 01:31:35,120 Speaker 1: to you. Yeah, well maybe you guys doing. Are the 1831 01:31:35,160 --> 01:31:36,920 Speaker 1: Patriots going to make a big move here?

Yeah did he. I think that's why she 1917 01:36:27,320 --> 01:36:35,919 Speaker 1: thought he was here. But so time at Montgomery Okay, yeah? Perfect? 1918 01:36:37,760 --> 01:36:42,599 Speaker 1: Probably Brandon Bolden, yeah right, older, backup. Seems like he's 1919 01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:45,559 Speaker 1: played running back, wide receiver, tight end, kind of everything. 1920 01:36:45,760 --> 01:36:47,600 Speaker 1: A little bit of that too, didn't sow them. I 1921 01:36:47,640 --> 01:36:49,680 Speaker 1: mean they got a type right, Yeah, that's what the 1922 01:36:49,800 --> 01:36:54,280 Speaker 1: more you can do, you can wasn't he um trying 1923 01:36:54,280 --> 01:36:58,639 Speaker 1: to think now, green Bay. He had a good one 1924 01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:01,519 Speaker 1: good season with Green Bay where he did a lot 1925 01:37:01,600 --> 01:37:03,400 Speaker 1: of different things for them in a pinch because there 1926 01:37:03,439 --> 01:37:05,840 Speaker 1: were a lot of injuries. Yeah, and he came out 1927 01:37:05,960 --> 01:37:08,479 Speaker 1: and really kind of helped them signed the same way 1928 01:37:08,520 --> 01:37:11,280 Speaker 1: that Bolden helped us last year. You're You're dead. On 1929 01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:14,120 Speaker 1: his second year, he had you know, seventy seven carries, 1930 01:37:14,160 --> 01:37:17,519 Speaker 1: four and fifty four fifty seven rushing yards, three rushing touchdowns, 1931 01:37:17,560 --> 01:37:19,920 Speaker 1: forty four catches, three hundred and forty eight yards. Yeah 1932 01:37:20,120 --> 01:37:24,000 Speaker 1: he did uh yeah that year that was twenty sixteen 1933 01:37:24,120 --> 01:37:26,439 Speaker 1: eight eight hundred and six, eight hundred and five totally 1934 01:37:26,479 --> 01:37:28,960 Speaker 1: yards from scrimmage. So it was I mean, yeah, they 1935 01:37:29,040 --> 01:37:31,680 Speaker 1: needed it because most there were injuries that year. But 1936 01:37:31,800 --> 01:37:33,640 Speaker 1: he's part of a committee. He's not like coming in 1937 01:37:34,400 --> 01:37:38,840 Speaker 1: planting real real spotty Harris or the last couple of years, 1938 01:37:38,880 --> 01:37:40,960 Speaker 1: there's not there's not a lot there to They like 1939 01:37:41,080 --> 01:37:43,519 Speaker 1: to have their stable of running backs. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1940 01:37:43,560 --> 01:37:45,479 Speaker 1: I always feel like they over kind of overstocked it 1941 01:37:45,520 --> 01:37:47,679 Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, he's he's the Bolden and they'll 1942 01:37:47,680 --> 01:37:50,120 Speaker 1: probably draft they'll probably draft around and some people will 1943 01:37:50,120 --> 01:37:52,400 Speaker 1: be like, oh, you know, this is the answer. No, 1944 01:37:52,840 --> 01:37:56,840 Speaker 1: this isn't the answer. This was an opportunity. He was available. 1945 01:37:57,080 --> 01:37:59,120 Speaker 1: They like what he's done in the past, they think 1946 01:37:59,160 --> 01:38:02,360 Speaker 1: he can fit in and you know, and probably some roles, 1947 01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:05,200 Speaker 1: and so they sign him. It's this, No, this isn't 1948 01:38:05,200 --> 01:38:07,800 Speaker 1: the answer. Don't don't worry about that. A couple of 1949 01:38:07,920 --> 01:38:11,560 Speaker 1: years contract too, seems pretty manageable. So I can just 1950 01:38:11,640 --> 01:38:15,680 Speaker 1: hear them your radio right now. How much money? I 1951 01:38:15,760 --> 01:38:18,600 Speaker 1: think four mil up to four mil so total, so 1952 01:38:18,760 --> 01:38:20,400 Speaker 1: not much. I don't I don't know if that's too 1953 01:38:20,479 --> 01:38:23,720 Speaker 1: much for people. But uh, let's get to some of 1954 01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:26,080 Speaker 1: the emails at web radio or Patriots dot com. So 1955 01:38:26,200 --> 01:38:28,600 Speaker 1: one of the Perillo seven has gone with Bolden to 1956 01:38:28,680 --> 01:38:32,160 Speaker 1: the Raiders. There's one bee out of Paul's bonnet. Other 1957 01:38:32,240 --> 01:38:34,880 Speaker 1: branches of Belichick's tree have tried to transplant the Patriot 1958 01:38:34,920 --> 01:38:38,160 Speaker 1: way by signing former Patriots, but it hasn't resulted in 1959 01:38:38,240 --> 01:38:40,960 Speaker 1: the Patriots level of success. Do you think this is 1960 01:38:41,080 --> 01:38:44,599 Speaker 1: McDaniels trying to import the culture or does he actually 1961 01:38:44,680 --> 01:38:46,679 Speaker 1: have a role on the field for good old Bolden. 1962 01:38:47,160 --> 01:38:49,280 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean a little bit of both. He 1963 01:38:49,360 --> 01:38:52,840 Speaker 1: did Johnson too, Yeah ya, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think 1964 01:38:52,880 --> 01:38:54,519 Speaker 1: it's a little everything. I mean, check out what I 1965 01:38:54,560 --> 01:38:56,080 Speaker 1: wrote I dug up with, Like I said, the quote 1966 01:38:56,080 --> 01:38:58,240 Speaker 1: on from McDaniels, that'll tell you what what he plans 1967 01:38:58,240 --> 01:39:00,360 Speaker 1: on to and just I mean, I think from off 1968 01:39:00,439 --> 01:39:02,519 Speaker 1: field standpoint, just a guy that can come in and 1969 01:39:02,640 --> 01:39:04,559 Speaker 1: probably I mean a thing about it last night. It's 1970 01:39:04,560 --> 01:39:06,479 Speaker 1: a guy who speaks Josh's language right off the bat. 1971 01:39:06,520 --> 01:39:08,280 Speaker 1: So you know, when you're starting to do install and 1972 01:39:08,360 --> 01:39:11,000 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff, Brandon, you know, just have him 1973 01:39:11,040 --> 01:39:13,240 Speaker 1: go first. He show he knows he speaks the language. 1974 01:39:13,240 --> 01:39:15,320 Speaker 1: Already his guys are learning. You have guys that can 1975 01:39:15,400 --> 01:39:16,880 Speaker 1: hop in and do it and show you how it's 1976 01:39:16,880 --> 01:39:19,720 Speaker 1: supposed to be done. You don't have like four guys 1977 01:39:19,800 --> 01:39:21,680 Speaker 1: looking at each other like what what did Josh just say? 1978 01:39:21,720 --> 01:39:22,920 Speaker 1: What are we supposed to do? You know, you have 1979 01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:25,240 Speaker 1: one guy that knows what he's doing. I mean, Bill 1980 01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:27,360 Speaker 1: when he first got here was so dead set on 1981 01:39:27,520 --> 01:39:30,120 Speaker 1: doing that. He brought in Bobby Hamilton and Anthony Pleasant 1982 01:39:30,479 --> 01:39:32,320 Speaker 1: and he brought in Roman Fifer, and he was so 1983 01:39:33,760 --> 01:39:36,360 Speaker 1: he felt that Roman Fifer was so important to bring in. 1984 01:39:36,760 --> 01:39:39,160 Speaker 1: He made an exception for him where after a game 1985 01:39:39,240 --> 01:39:41,960 Speaker 1: he could fly to California and not come because that's 1986 01:39:42,000 --> 01:39:44,920 Speaker 1: where his family was, and not come back till Wednesday. Yeah, 1987 01:39:45,000 --> 01:39:47,320 Speaker 1: he made that exception for the guy because it was 1988 01:39:47,400 --> 01:39:49,880 Speaker 1: that important to have that type of veteran leadership on 1989 01:39:49,960 --> 01:39:52,160 Speaker 1: his team. Yeah. Fans complaining about that one. They're like, 1990 01:39:52,200 --> 01:39:54,639 Speaker 1: how can they sign this guy that gets to fly away? Well, 1991 01:39:57,040 --> 01:40:00,880 Speaker 1: you know, but I think I think pretty quickly people realized, okay, 1992 01:40:01,800 --> 01:40:05,840 Speaker 1: he you know, it was for a good reason. There 1993 01:40:05,880 --> 01:40:08,320 Speaker 1: weren't that many fans as many as they are now 1994 01:40:08,439 --> 01:40:11,400 Speaker 1: back then, and yeah, they weren't paying his close attention. 1995 01:40:11,880 --> 01:40:13,840 Speaker 1: No internet where now it's like something happens in a 1996 01:40:13,920 --> 01:40:21,120 Speaker 1: million people cry out and star wars.

So there's that goes into Fred's 2044 01:43:59,479 --> 01:44:02,160 Speaker 1: fast forward into time. There are always players right into 2045 01:44:02,200 --> 01:44:05,080 Speaker 1: the future. Yeah, so that could look out for June first, 2046 01:44:05,200 --> 01:44:08,120 Speaker 1: June second signing, Patriots sign. I mean not to try 2047 01:44:08,160 --> 01:44:10,000 Speaker 1: to make people feel better, but I do always feel 2048 01:44:10,040 --> 01:44:12,080 Speaker 1: like you get that initial Russia free agency and then 2049 01:44:12,080 --> 01:44:14,280 Speaker 1: you're had in this period now where random guys are 2050 01:44:14,320 --> 01:44:16,920 Speaker 1: just suddenly becoming available. That's what fres thing is like. 2051 01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:18,800 Speaker 1: There are always guys that are you know, and it's 2052 01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:20,560 Speaker 1: guys you didn't really think about. You didn't spend the 2053 01:44:20,640 --> 01:44:22,879 Speaker 1: last two months being like this is a free agent priority, 2054 01:44:23,000 --> 01:44:25,479 Speaker 1: but you know, and I think that that's sometimes what 2055 01:44:25,560 --> 01:44:27,719 Speaker 1: they take advantage of that they're you know, in position 2056 01:44:27,800 --> 01:44:29,600 Speaker 1: now of old geez, we didn't expect this guy now 2057 01:44:29,680 --> 01:44:32,360 Speaker 1: to be available and other teams can't really bid on them. 2058 01:44:32,520 --> 01:44:34,240 Speaker 1: It's just the way they do things. I know, everybody 2059 01:44:34,280 --> 01:44:38,559 Speaker 1: doesn't love it, but right. Brendan from Port mcquarie writes 2060 01:44:38,640 --> 01:44:41,160 Speaker 1: in Fred is right, we should have franchised J. C. 2061 01:44:41,400 --> 01:44:44,080 Speaker 1: Jackson so we could either free up draft picks and 2062 01:44:44,200 --> 01:44:47,120 Speaker 1: free agent money for a wide receiver or trade him 2063 01:44:47,160 --> 01:44:50,840 Speaker 1: for third round pick. And while I'm settling arguments, rivers 2064 01:44:50,920 --> 01:44:54,280 Speaker 1: do have tides. This dynasty was more Brady than Belichick, 2065 01:44:54,520 --> 01:45:01,000 Speaker 1: and it was a trick play. I'm gonna Lawyer Malloy 2066 01:45:01,120 --> 01:45:03,439 Speaker 1: has come up on some recent shows and it's made 2067 01:45:03,479 --> 01:45:06,040 Speaker 1: me curious on the impact that his departure had at 2068 01:45:06,080 --> 01:45:09,759 Speaker 1: the time. From your perspective from the inside, what impact 2069 01:45:09,880 --> 01:45:13,519 Speaker 1: did his cutting and Tom Jackson's comments have on morale 2070 01:45:14,320 --> 01:45:19,880 Speaker 1: and the organization back then? Well, only you were around. Yeah, 2071 01:45:19,880 --> 01:45:23,040 Speaker 1: I remember the day it happened. I marched into Robert 2072 01:45:23,080 --> 01:45:26,000 Speaker 1: Kraft's office and said, I need a pep talk, really, 2073 01:45:26,080 --> 01:45:28,240 Speaker 1: and he said, don't worry, we have a plan. It's 2074 01:45:28,280 --> 01:45:31,040 Speaker 1: gonna be okay. And then we went to Buffalo and 2075 01:45:31,160 --> 01:45:34,320 Speaker 1: we got pasted thirty one to nothing. And I just 2076 01:45:34,439 --> 01:45:36,640 Speaker 1: remember getting on the bus after the game and the 2077 01:45:36,720 --> 01:45:41,040 Speaker 1: bus driver had the local Buffalo sports show postgame and 2078 01:45:41,240 --> 01:45:43,680 Speaker 1: Lawyer Malloy was on it. It's like, you know, I 2079 01:45:43,840 --> 01:45:46,160 Speaker 1: like it here. You know here it's like a family. 2080 01:45:46,400 --> 01:45:52,679 Speaker 1: And I said to the driver, turned this off exact words. Yeah, 2081 01:45:52,920 --> 01:45:56,080 Speaker 1: I was pissed, But they figured it out. They figured 2082 01:45:56,120 --> 01:45:59,640 Speaker 1: it out and obviously, but yeah, so I want to 2083 01:46:00,040 --> 01:46:01,840 Speaker 1: talk about the Tom Jackson thing in a second, but 2084 01:46:01,960 --> 01:46:04,360 Speaker 1: I just remember during that game, you know, it was 2085 01:46:04,400 --> 01:46:06,080 Speaker 1: the first game of the season, and I think I 2086 01:46:06,200 --> 01:46:09,360 Speaker 1: was sitting next to Brian Moray and he's like, how 2087 01:46:09,640 --> 01:46:12,240 Speaker 1: how far into the game is it before the defensive 2088 01:46:12,280 --> 01:46:14,519 Speaker 1: secondary have their palms up looking at each other, And 2089 01:46:14,680 --> 01:46:16,760 Speaker 1: sure enough it was like the second game of the 2090 01:46:17,240 --> 01:46:21,160 Speaker 1: second play of the game, ty Laws like looking at yeah, 2091 01:46:21,360 --> 01:46:23,960 Speaker 1: like when this pombs up? Like what's going on. The 2092 01:46:24,120 --> 01:46:28,840 Speaker 1: Tom Jackson comment, though, I think was the opposite that 2093 01:46:29,080 --> 01:46:32,000 Speaker 1: helped the team, because I'm when he said that. I 2094 01:46:32,120 --> 01:46:35,599 Speaker 1: remember I was in a hotel room and I heard 2095 01:46:35,640 --> 01:46:38,840 Speaker 1: it and like, oh, that's that's not good. Where's he 2096 01:46:38,880 --> 01:46:41,519 Speaker 1: getting that from? You know, your your first assumption is 2097 01:46:42,080 --> 01:46:44,559 Speaker 1: from a player. Yeah. I don't think he did, though. 2098 01:46:44,600 --> 01:46:47,640 Speaker 1: I think he kind of made that up. And Bill was, 2099 01:46:48,360 --> 01:46:50,960 Speaker 1: you know, to this day, like I don't think he'll 2100 01:46:51,000 --> 01:46:54,040 Speaker 1: talk to him. Yeah, And I think that Bill took 2101 01:46:54,120 --> 01:46:55,920 Speaker 1: that quote and went to his team and said if 2102 01:46:55,960 --> 01:46:58,800 Speaker 1: this one thing I do care about is you guys, 2103 01:46:59,360 --> 01:47:03,080 Speaker 1: you know, and um, you know what I do is 2104 01:47:03,280 --> 01:47:06,280 Speaker 1: you know, for the best, you know. But I think 2105 01:47:06,360 --> 01:47:10,560 Speaker 1: that that I think it helped and I know it 2106 01:47:10,680 --> 01:47:14,360 Speaker 1: pissed Bill off, and they went out and and smacked 2107 01:47:14,360 --> 01:47:16,599 Speaker 1: the Eagles around in Week two, right, Yeah, I recall 2108 01:47:16,720 --> 01:47:20,160 Speaker 1: and you know when they won the Super Bowl that year, Um, 2109 01:47:20,360 --> 01:47:22,400 Speaker 1: you know Jackson was on the field. You know how 2110 01:47:22,439 --> 01:47:24,000 Speaker 1: they have the death set up on the field with 2111 01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:27,639 Speaker 1: and Bill said, I'm not doing it. I'm not going 2112 01:47:27,720 --> 01:47:29,920 Speaker 1: on with you guys. It's interesting hearing that now and 2113 01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:32,320 Speaker 1: kind of comparison to to Devin mccordy of what we're 2114 01:47:32,320 --> 01:47:34,639 Speaker 1: talking about now, like an old safety who is kind 2115 01:47:34,680 --> 01:47:37,600 Speaker 1: of being paid maybe too much to keep people on 2116 01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:40,240 Speaker 1: the same page. And in that situation, I'm granted, I 2117 01:47:40,360 --> 01:47:42,120 Speaker 1: know Laurie Miller is making more money than that, and 2118 01:47:42,320 --> 01:47:44,320 Speaker 1: you know it was a bigger issue. But I also 2119 01:47:44,400 --> 01:47:46,360 Speaker 1: think that he was near the end of the line, 2120 01:47:46,400 --> 01:47:48,200 Speaker 1: maybe couldn't run quite as well as they thought he 2121 01:47:48,280 --> 01:47:51,040 Speaker 1: originally could, but they were willing to kind of tear 2122 01:47:51,120 --> 01:47:54,360 Speaker 1: it off. Then. It's just kind of interesting comparison. Yeah. Um, 2123 01:47:54,680 --> 01:47:59,000 Speaker 1: Chris and Colfax, California, No Colfax, Colfax Avenue, I mester, 2124 01:47:59,040 --> 01:48:01,800 Speaker 1: what Colfax the city? A couple of thoughts here. First off, 2125 01:48:01,840 --> 01:48:04,519 Speaker 1: Paul wind about how dumb it was to resign mccordy, 2126 01:48:04,840 --> 01:48:07,479 Speaker 1: but signing him lowered his cap number, so the team 2127 01:48:07,560 --> 01:48:09,559 Speaker 1: would have paid more to have him off the team 2128 01:48:09,600 --> 01:48:11,880 Speaker 1: than on it. So that seems like a no brainer 2129 01:48:11,960 --> 01:48:14,800 Speaker 1: to me. Also, what is a scenario where the team 2130 01:48:14,840 --> 01:48:18,160 Speaker 1: finishes somewhere like four and thirteen and you feel good 2131 01:48:18,200 --> 01:48:21,360 Speaker 1: about mac Jones's future if possible? Is there such a 2132 01:48:21,439 --> 01:48:23,960 Speaker 1: scenario if they finished four and thirteen? Is there a 2133 01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:26,839 Speaker 1: scenario in which they could do that and be confident 2134 01:48:26,880 --> 01:48:29,800 Speaker 1: about Jacko's fourn O lights everything up, then gets hurt 2135 01:48:29,840 --> 01:48:33,439 Speaker 1: and doesn't play. It's a good scenario. But what if 2136 01:48:33,479 --> 01:48:35,680 Speaker 1: he finishes to see, I don't think so. I think 2137 01:48:35,680 --> 01:48:38,000 Speaker 1: if they're four and thirteen, he didn't play, well, you 2138 01:48:38,080 --> 01:48:40,160 Speaker 1: know right, well, we'll hold on. What if they were 2139 01:48:40,280 --> 01:48:42,880 Speaker 1: in every single game because of mac Jones and it 2140 01:48:43,000 --> 01:48:46,080 Speaker 1: was the defense that cost them the game victory? Okay, right? 2141 01:48:46,160 --> 01:48:49,519 Speaker 1: Like what if what if they lost those thirteen games 2142 01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:53,840 Speaker 1: by an average score of like thirty five thirty three? 2143 01:48:54,720 --> 01:48:56,840 Speaker 1: Like the offense is putting up points, they're keeping pace 2144 01:48:56,920 --> 01:48:59,400 Speaker 1: with the too far off from justin Herbert's rookie season, right, 2145 01:49:00,040 --> 01:49:02,160 Speaker 1: Like you've got like a twenty seventeen season where like 2146 01:49:02,200 --> 01:49:04,360 Speaker 1: the offense can score on anybody, but the defense just 2147 01:49:04,439 --> 01:49:07,680 Speaker 1: can't hold up. Now, I feel better already on that. 2148 01:49:07,840 --> 01:49:09,800 Speaker 1: I could see that lining up. You know, in theory, 2149 01:49:09,880 --> 01:49:11,679 Speaker 1: if you're laying it out, they're gonna turn some guys 2150 01:49:11,720 --> 01:49:13,439 Speaker 1: over on defense this year might be a little bit 2151 01:49:13,520 --> 01:49:16,280 Speaker 1: head or mess a cornerback. But offensively, if you can 2152 01:49:16,320 --> 01:49:20,320 Speaker 1: get the line figure fifty touchdowns. But if but if 2153 01:49:20,360 --> 01:49:22,160 Speaker 1: those games and you feel good, But if you have 2154 01:49:22,600 --> 01:49:25,519 Speaker 1: if you have that many games that are closed, there 2155 01:49:25,600 --> 01:49:27,400 Speaker 1: has to be a certain amount of those where Mac 2156 01:49:27,479 --> 01:49:30,479 Speaker 1: has the ball last Yeah, and he didn't do it. Yeah, 2157 01:49:30,520 --> 01:49:32,519 Speaker 1: you know, so, I don't know. It's hard, it's hard. 2158 01:49:32,880 --> 01:49:35,280 Speaker 1: It's hard to say. You could really feel great. Yeah, 2159 01:49:35,320 --> 01:49:37,639 Speaker 1: I'd feel great about his future if he was playing 2160 01:49:37,720 --> 01:49:39,760 Speaker 1: that way. But if every time you're in a big 2161 01:49:39,800 --> 01:49:41,960 Speaker 1: spot he got the ball and here's your chance, it's 2162 01:49:41,960 --> 01:49:44,080 Speaker 1: a little different, you know, right, I mean it could 2163 01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:47,400 Speaker 1: go one hundred different ways. Yeah, uh, Claire rights in 2164 01:49:47,600 --> 01:49:53,040 Speaker 1: Hello everyone, Hello Marin Marine. Um, I'm with you. Fred. 2165 01:49:53,160 --> 01:49:55,360 Speaker 1: Not happy with Johnson going And the old line is 2166 01:49:55,400 --> 01:49:58,000 Speaker 1: concerning the crap out of me. I wanted to keep 2167 01:49:58,080 --> 01:50:02,760 Speaker 1: Caras and Mason. That trade stunned me. Doing my best 2168 01:50:02,800 --> 01:50:05,120 Speaker 1: to stay positive because I love our quarterback and I'm 2169 01:50:05,160 --> 01:50:07,720 Speaker 1: looking forward to seeing him year two. But I am 2170 01:50:07,760 --> 01:50:11,240 Speaker 1: a smidge worried right now. Yeah, it's the roller coaster 2171 01:50:11,360 --> 01:50:14,320 Speaker 1: of the first week of free Asians how goes. But 2172 01:50:14,560 --> 01:50:16,920 Speaker 1: as I said earlier, it also is another position now 2173 01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:19,400 Speaker 1: that you have more question marks than you thought you 2174 01:50:19,439 --> 01:50:21,840 Speaker 1: were going to have going into this offseason, and you 2175 01:50:21,880 --> 01:50:24,560 Speaker 1: already have enough of those you don't need more. But 2176 01:50:25,280 --> 01:50:28,639 Speaker 1: that's what happens in rebuilding years Raj and Saint Louis. 2177 01:50:28,680 --> 01:50:31,759 Speaker 1: I understand everyone has allowed their opinions, but on Tuesday, 2178 01:50:32,200 --> 01:50:36,479 Speaker 1: Paul had to be intentionally optus or he's just a moron. Firstly, 2179 01:50:37,120 --> 01:50:39,479 Speaker 1: I watch a lot of Chicago games and Alan Robinson 2180 01:50:39,720 --> 01:50:42,519 Speaker 1: is all hype in Twitter highlights. He puts up those stats, 2181 01:50:42,960 --> 01:50:45,320 Speaker 1: but is just not a winning player, and most Bears 2182 01:50:45,400 --> 01:50:47,799 Speaker 1: fan will tell you that. For a guy who preaches 2183 01:50:47,880 --> 01:50:50,160 Speaker 1: to watch the game and not look just at stats 2184 01:50:50,439 --> 01:50:55,439 Speaker 1: and hates hypocrites, the irony from Loudmouth there was pretty palpable. Also, 2185 01:50:55,560 --> 01:50:58,280 Speaker 1: if the cap is meaningless, then the Seahawks should be 2186 01:50:58,320 --> 01:51:01,000 Speaker 1: in a much better position than they are out. Eventually 2187 01:51:01,160 --> 01:51:05,639 Speaker 1: the bill for every team comes due will for the Rams, Packers, Bucks, Chiefs, etc. 2188 01:51:06,280 --> 01:51:09,439 Speaker 1: Maybe not twenty three or twenty twenty four, but soon 2189 01:51:09,600 --> 01:51:12,160 Speaker 1: these teams will be cutting and struggling to retain talent 2190 01:51:12,479 --> 01:51:16,160 Speaker 1: like Tennessee and Seattle currently are. Yes, the cap can 2191 01:51:16,280 --> 01:51:19,600 Speaker 1: be manipulated, but really only if you draft well and 2192 01:51:19,760 --> 01:51:23,080 Speaker 1: have cheap talented players like New Orleans. Even for them, 2193 01:51:23,439 --> 01:51:25,679 Speaker 1: they're looking at a rough first half of the decade 2194 01:51:25,680 --> 01:51:29,120 Speaker 1: because of how much they pushed back Breezes contract. I'm 2195 01:51:29,160 --> 01:51:32,479 Speaker 1: all for criticizing Belichick in his moves, but your arguments 2196 01:51:32,479 --> 01:51:35,400 Speaker 1: against him have to be logical and not just Paul's. 2197 01:51:35,479 --> 01:51:37,960 Speaker 1: It's wrong because my feelings is still hurt that bled 2198 01:51:38,040 --> 01:51:41,479 Speaker 1: Cell was replaced. Yeah, put that one in the opener morale. Yeah, 2199 01:51:41,520 --> 01:51:44,479 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't. I don't think that's why Paul, 2200 01:51:44,760 --> 01:51:47,479 Speaker 1: But you know, and I mean not to defend Paul, 2201 01:51:47,520 --> 01:51:50,840 Speaker 1: but I mean having conversation with him literally yesterday off 2202 01:51:50,880 --> 01:51:53,600 Speaker 1: air about Alan Robinson, and he was kind of so. 2203 01:51:53,800 --> 01:51:55,360 Speaker 1: I don't know what he said or what impression he 2204 01:51:55,400 --> 01:51:57,799 Speaker 1: gave on the radio, but I don't think he's banging 2205 01:51:57,840 --> 01:52:00,880 Speaker 1: the table like he's I think it's I think somebody 2206 01:52:00,920 --> 01:52:03,720 Speaker 1: said he hasn't done that much, but he has put 2207 01:52:03,800 --> 01:52:06,360 Speaker 1: up numbers. He has put up numbers. Yeah, he's And 2208 01:52:06,479 --> 01:52:10,320 Speaker 1: I said, he's like Brandon Cook, you know, wherever he Yeah, 2209 01:52:10,520 --> 01:52:12,800 Speaker 1: wherever he goes. He's close to a thousand yards, but 2210 01:52:12,920 --> 01:52:15,200 Speaker 1: he goes from place to place just always a little 2211 01:52:15,200 --> 01:52:17,040 Speaker 1: bit of a red flag, regardless of guys that just 2212 01:52:17,160 --> 01:52:21,200 Speaker 1: kind of bounce around. Certain guys just do that. Uh, 2213 01:52:21,560 --> 01:52:25,519 Speaker 1: let's see Bill and Bozeman writes in um, am I 2214 01:52:25,640 --> 01:52:28,960 Speaker 1: alone in thinking that Shaq Mason is incredibly overrated with 2215 01:52:29,120 --> 01:52:31,639 Speaker 1: a contract way out of whack with his skill set. 2216 01:52:32,400 --> 01:52:34,880 Speaker 1: Am I the only one who remembers who got badly 2217 01:52:34,960 --> 01:52:37,200 Speaker 1: beat for a game ending strip sack in Super Bowl 2218 01:52:37,439 --> 01:52:40,519 Speaker 1: fifty two. He's a solid player, but not a pro bowler. 2219 01:52:40,800 --> 01:52:44,640 Speaker 1: I'm happy we unloaded the contract and the player. I 2220 01:52:44,760 --> 01:52:46,600 Speaker 1: think he's a I think he's a good player, to 2221 01:52:46,680 --> 01:52:49,639 Speaker 1: be honest, I've never been the biggest fan. I think 2222 01:52:49,680 --> 01:52:52,200 Speaker 1: he's really athletic, but I think he's undersized, and I 2223 01:52:52,280 --> 01:52:54,280 Speaker 1: definitely think there are, you know, we're games that he 2224 01:52:54,600 --> 01:52:56,479 Speaker 1: had some struggles, But I think he was a very 2225 01:52:56,600 --> 01:52:58,960 Speaker 1: very solid player for the Patriots. And you know this, 2226 01:52:59,320 --> 01:53:01,599 Speaker 1: it hurts. But again, if you had to pick one 2227 01:53:01,640 --> 01:53:04,280 Speaker 1: position on a whole entire football roster to have to replace, 2228 01:53:04,680 --> 01:53:08,040 Speaker 1: I'm taking right guard first. Like every time Tony writes in, 2229 01:53:08,200 --> 01:53:11,599 Speaker 1: he says, Eric, South Dakota State hasn't lost since mid December. 2230 01:53:12,040 --> 01:53:14,519 Speaker 1: Enjoy your friars in the attorney for the next two 2231 01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:18,920 Speaker 1: hours while you can Wow. Okay, this must have come 2232 01:53:19,000 --> 01:53:22,640 Speaker 1: in before. Huh. What's the score now? Province has like 2233 01:53:22,720 --> 01:53:27,920 Speaker 1: a double digit lead. Nice? Nice in the Patriots. In 2234 01:53:28,000 --> 01:53:31,559 Speaker 1: the Patriot's opinions, the return for Shack is disappointing since 2235 01:53:31,600 --> 01:53:34,240 Speaker 1: he was a fan favorite. The return meeting the fifth 2236 01:53:34,360 --> 01:53:37,200 Speaker 1: round pick. But I can't fault the team for trading 2237 01:53:37,240 --> 01:53:40,800 Speaker 1: away an interior lineman who costs tennish million. And that's 2238 01:53:40,840 --> 01:53:43,639 Speaker 1: a decent return for a guard. What was the return 2239 01:53:43,760 --> 01:53:47,400 Speaker 1: for Mankins? A fourth rounder? Guards just aren't that valuable, 2240 01:53:47,720 --> 01:53:50,519 Speaker 1: especially when they make ten plus million. Yeah, I'm gonna 2241 01:53:50,560 --> 01:53:52,640 Speaker 1: look that trade up. I don't remember exactly what they 2242 01:53:52,680 --> 01:53:55,840 Speaker 1: got from. Yeah, I don't think it was. I think 2243 01:53:55,880 --> 01:53:58,000 Speaker 1: it's just it's the money. So it's the money that 2244 01:53:58,160 --> 01:54:01,439 Speaker 1: brings the draft picked out. And I again just to 2245 01:54:01,600 --> 01:54:04,439 Speaker 1: state it for the record. I mean Jonathan Jones. I 2246 01:54:04,479 --> 01:54:07,120 Speaker 1: don't know anything, but he's another one that big chunk 2247 01:54:07,160 --> 01:54:10,599 Speaker 1: of changed. This year, the Patriots acquired tight end Tim Wright, 2248 01:54:10,800 --> 01:54:14,479 Speaker 1: remember him? Oh? Touchdown Tim Wright and a twenty fifteen 2249 01:54:14,680 --> 01:54:17,960 Speaker 1: fourth round pick for Logan Mankins. Okay, so I picked 2250 01:54:18,000 --> 01:54:23,040 Speaker 1: the following year and a player that year. Yeah, Ramone 2251 01:54:23,120 --> 01:54:26,160 Speaker 1: writes in he's in Tampa. This rebuild should have happened 2252 01:54:26,400 --> 01:54:29,920 Speaker 1: Slash begun the year we brought in camp Eric hit it. 2253 01:54:30,400 --> 01:54:33,120 Speaker 1: They seemed indecisive, but it also seems there was no 2254 01:54:33,320 --> 01:54:36,640 Speaker 1: forward or realistic thinking. I didn't see any reason for 2255 01:54:36,720 --> 01:54:39,600 Speaker 1: them to be as optimistic as they were. What we 2256 01:54:39,680 --> 01:54:42,680 Speaker 1: should have done was taken care of one of our corners, 2257 01:54:43,040 --> 01:54:45,720 Speaker 1: signed a few players, and be intentional with our draft picks. 2258 01:54:46,000 --> 01:54:49,600 Speaker 1: Ideally we would have been turning that rebuilding corner. Anyhow, 2259 01:54:50,040 --> 01:54:52,360 Speaker 1: we're here now, and I just hope that we hit 2260 01:54:52,520 --> 01:54:54,520 Speaker 1: on half of our draft picks. I don't care who 2261 01:54:54,600 --> 01:54:57,160 Speaker 1: we draft. I just need them to be good. It 2262 01:54:57,200 --> 01:54:59,960 Speaker 1: would be icing if there were. If they are position 2263 01:55:00,240 --> 01:55:03,520 Speaker 1: of need too, that would help. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, 2264 01:55:03,600 --> 01:55:07,400 Speaker 1: I think the comparison is if you hadn't drafted in 2265 01:55:07,640 --> 01:55:12,920 Speaker 1: nine to like twelve Edelman, Gronk, mccordy, High Tower Jones. 2266 01:55:13,280 --> 01:55:15,800 Speaker 1: If you hadn't hit those four guys, that's what you're 2267 01:55:15,840 --> 01:55:18,080 Speaker 1: getting now. You didn't get those guys in those drafts 2268 01:55:18,120 --> 01:55:19,600 Speaker 1: like and they got those guys so they were able 2269 01:55:19,640 --> 01:55:23,080 Speaker 1: to groom and build around them and win Super Bowls. 2270 01:55:23,440 --> 01:55:25,600 Speaker 1: You need star players, and I feel like last year 2271 01:55:25,640 --> 01:55:27,440 Speaker 1: they got I mean, they got mac Jones. They have 2272 01:55:27,520 --> 01:55:31,520 Speaker 1: to continue the more they seem like legit impact NFL players, 2273 01:55:31,800 --> 01:55:34,080 Speaker 1: they need at least three more to continue to that trend. 2274 01:55:34,240 --> 01:55:40,440 Speaker 1: Ye Russell in Arkansas, he's upset if we don't sign upset. 2275 01:55:40,480 --> 01:55:43,200 Speaker 1: If we don't sign someone today, I might swan dive 2276 01:55:43,280 --> 01:55:46,080 Speaker 1: off my roof. They sign time on coming, So just 2277 01:55:46,200 --> 01:55:49,600 Speaker 1: give me Alan Robinson and maybe Trey Flowers. I'm with 2278 01:55:49,720 --> 01:55:52,120 Speaker 1: the Entrey Flowers. I think that that that would make 2279 01:55:52,200 --> 01:55:56,040 Speaker 1: sense to me, you know, just a good solid edge guy. 2280 01:55:56,160 --> 01:55:57,880 Speaker 1: Not I don't even to be twenty sacks, you know, 2281 01:55:57,960 --> 01:56:00,440 Speaker 1: not that he's that guy, But I think that makes sense. 2282 01:56:01,040 --> 01:56:04,880 Speaker 1: David writes in and Bethlehem, the schemes and teams are changing. 2283 01:56:05,240 --> 01:56:08,440 Speaker 1: Patriots are going to change. Two the skills of players 2284 01:56:08,560 --> 01:56:11,640 Speaker 1: influenced tactics. But in twenty twenty two, the schemes and 2285 01:56:11,760 --> 01:56:14,960 Speaker 1: offense and defense are going to change. Will the Patriots 2286 01:56:14,960 --> 01:56:17,480 Speaker 1: abandon ground to pound? And what will they do well 2287 01:56:17,520 --> 01:56:19,680 Speaker 1: they abandon it? For I think that's an excellent question 2288 01:56:19,800 --> 01:56:23,120 Speaker 1: because you let Yakob Johnson walk. You know, Shack Mason 2289 01:56:23,280 --> 01:56:26,320 Speaker 1: is at his best on the move as a run blocker. 2290 01:56:27,480 --> 01:56:29,680 Speaker 1: You know Ted carriss, I think he's he's a tough, 2291 01:56:29,840 --> 01:56:33,440 Speaker 1: you know, kind of run guy. And I think those 2292 01:56:33,480 --> 01:56:35,520 Speaker 1: moves may maybe do signal I don't want to get 2293 01:56:35,560 --> 01:56:37,240 Speaker 1: too caught up in like every time they make a 2294 01:56:37,320 --> 01:56:39,520 Speaker 1: move that it signals like a grand departure from what 2295 01:56:39,640 --> 01:56:42,480 Speaker 1: they do. It's like they anytime they draft a linebacker 2296 01:56:42,520 --> 01:56:44,720 Speaker 1: who can run, it's like the whole scheme is suddenly changing. 2297 01:56:44,800 --> 01:56:47,240 Speaker 1: But I do think that there's possibly something to that 2298 01:56:47,360 --> 01:56:49,920 Speaker 1: with you know, those guys going out, Trent Brown, I mean, 2299 01:56:50,000 --> 01:56:53,200 Speaker 1: those are you know, big pieces of that. Like everybody thought, hey, 2300 01:56:53,240 --> 01:56:55,720 Speaker 1: we're gonna everyone's getting lighter on defense, We're gonna run it, 2301 01:56:55,760 --> 01:56:57,320 Speaker 1: and you know, put all these big guys out there, 2302 01:56:57,360 --> 01:56:59,160 Speaker 1: So maybe they are. Maybe it's it's it's it is 2303 01:56:59,200 --> 01:57:01,200 Speaker 1: evolving a little bit it But you know, I think 2304 01:57:01,240 --> 01:57:03,280 Speaker 1: Montgomery maybe feeds into that a little bit too, of 2305 01:57:03,400 --> 01:57:05,160 Speaker 1: of having a versatile guy who can do a bunch 2306 01:57:05,200 --> 01:57:08,360 Speaker 1: of things. So also wants to know will the Patriots 2307 01:57:08,440 --> 01:57:11,800 Speaker 1: find and feed some man mountains on the defensive line 2308 01:57:12,000 --> 01:57:16,800 Speaker 1: or will they let loose the hybrids? Will they find? Um? 2309 01:57:17,440 --> 01:57:19,720 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Jordan Davis is the huge dude 2310 01:57:19,760 --> 01:57:22,200 Speaker 1: from Georgia that I mean, it's easy to imagine how 2311 01:57:22,280 --> 01:57:24,040 Speaker 1: he'd fit with bar Moore and what what that would 2312 01:57:24,120 --> 01:57:26,520 Speaker 1: kind of how that would kind of work. Um. But 2313 01:57:26,760 --> 01:57:29,600 Speaker 1: I mean I think I start with edge and linebacker 2314 01:57:29,680 --> 01:57:33,960 Speaker 1: speed like that's that's it right there and edge, you know, 2315 01:57:33,960 --> 01:57:35,840 Speaker 1: I mean I think that they're okay shape for this 2316 01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:38,520 Speaker 1: year with with coming and you know, I don't hate 2317 01:57:38,560 --> 01:57:41,600 Speaker 1: Gatcha as much as as Paul did. Um. You know, 2318 01:57:41,640 --> 01:57:43,480 Speaker 1: I think Davis has gone, So maybe there's a spot 2319 01:57:43,520 --> 01:57:46,560 Speaker 1: for like a rookie Um Travis Jones from Yukon would 2320 01:57:46,560 --> 01:57:50,200 Speaker 1: be like a later version of of of that Georgia guy. 2321 01:57:50,320 --> 01:57:52,520 Speaker 1: But you know, I think that everything's a need. You 2322 01:57:52,520 --> 01:57:54,480 Speaker 1: can take anything, but I'd start with edge and linebacker, 2323 01:57:54,960 --> 01:57:57,160 Speaker 1: Sulman Wright saying, I understand we were not going to 2324 01:57:57,240 --> 01:58:00,400 Speaker 1: have a repeat a last offseason spending spree, but they 2325 01:58:00,440 --> 01:58:02,880 Speaker 1: haven't even made a push for second tier players and 2326 01:58:03,040 --> 01:58:05,800 Speaker 1: relatively cheap deals that were used to seeing them doing. 2327 01:58:06,320 --> 01:58:08,280 Speaker 1: Deuce made the point that they are nowhere up to 2328 01:58:08,360 --> 01:58:10,840 Speaker 1: par with the Chiefs, Bills, Bengals. I would go even 2329 01:58:10,920 --> 01:58:12,920 Speaker 1: further to say right now they're on the third best 2330 01:58:12,960 --> 01:58:16,000 Speaker 1: team in the AFC East. Don't need any rationale for 2331 01:58:16,120 --> 01:58:18,720 Speaker 1: why they're behind the Bills. For the Dolphins, they have 2332 01:58:18,840 --> 01:58:22,360 Speaker 1: proven they can beat the Patriots consistently. Have already signed 2333 01:58:22,400 --> 01:58:26,360 Speaker 1: a few role players for relatively low cost deals Chase Edmonds, 2334 01:58:26,440 --> 01:58:30,160 Speaker 1: Raheem mos Dirt, Cedric Wilson. These are the type of 2335 01:58:30,240 --> 01:58:33,280 Speaker 1: signings Patriots would make. I'm concerned the Patriots will be 2336 01:58:34,000 --> 01:58:36,960 Speaker 1: will be trying to play catch up for the next 2337 01:58:37,000 --> 01:58:40,240 Speaker 1: couple of seasons against the Bills and the Dolphins. I 2338 01:58:40,280 --> 01:58:42,000 Speaker 1: don't know. Those guys really not much different than who 2339 01:58:42,040 --> 01:58:45,960 Speaker 1: they've signed, like time Montgomery and I mean I see similarities. 2340 01:58:45,960 --> 01:58:48,480 Speaker 1: I don't disagree with the point that the Dolphins beat 2341 01:58:48,520 --> 01:58:50,680 Speaker 1: you twice last year. I do think it's a different 2342 01:58:50,720 --> 01:58:53,800 Speaker 1: dynamic with Mike McDaniel there instead of b Flow, who 2343 01:58:54,520 --> 01:58:57,320 Speaker 1: would blow your team's gonna get up. They know you 2344 01:58:57,400 --> 01:58:59,800 Speaker 1: were Patriots coach. You know, the Patriots, you're you know. 2345 01:59:00,200 --> 01:59:02,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I really enjoy listening to Mike McDaniel talk. 2346 01:59:02,480 --> 01:59:04,400 Speaker 1: I think it's a fascinating coach matchup because it's like 2347 01:59:04,720 --> 01:59:09,440 Speaker 1: two opposites thirty something say anything jokey dude and Bill Belichick. 2348 01:59:09,520 --> 01:59:11,640 Speaker 1: I like, it couldn't be more opposite ends of the 2349 01:59:11,680 --> 01:59:14,880 Speaker 1: spectrum for those two coaches. Yeah, Kennon, New Jersey, I'm 2350 01:59:14,960 --> 01:59:17,520 Speaker 1: very confused by the moves. I guess I'm trying to 2351 01:59:17,600 --> 01:59:20,000 Speaker 1: figure out how Bill thinks about the next few years. 2352 01:59:20,520 --> 01:59:22,920 Speaker 1: Does he think his teams always have a fighter's chance 2353 01:59:22,960 --> 01:59:25,240 Speaker 1: to go deep in the playoffs? Does he ever write 2354 01:59:25,280 --> 01:59:28,840 Speaker 1: off a year not taking just realizing that this isn't 2355 01:59:28,880 --> 01:59:30,800 Speaker 1: going to be the year. I think he's trying to 2356 01:59:30,840 --> 01:59:33,400 Speaker 1: find a narrow path where he keeps the team competitive 2357 01:59:33,680 --> 01:59:37,960 Speaker 1: while he's rebuilding for a serious run in twenty twenty four. Well, 2358 01:59:37,960 --> 01:59:39,720 Speaker 1: I think any coach would want to try to stay 2359 01:59:39,800 --> 01:59:43,240 Speaker 1: competitive even when you're rebuilding. I mean they're not. I 2360 01:59:43,320 --> 01:59:47,680 Speaker 1: mean the two thousand and one Patriots, you're not. You're not. 2361 01:59:48,040 --> 01:59:49,840 Speaker 1: You lost your quarterback, right, You've got a bunch of 2362 01:59:49,920 --> 01:59:52,920 Speaker 1: new free agents, Like you know, I still think he 2363 01:59:53,000 --> 01:59:55,440 Speaker 1: looks at it like that season with you put the 2364 01:59:55,480 --> 01:59:57,560 Speaker 1: pieces in place, you try to build a strong roster 2365 01:59:57,680 --> 01:59:59,600 Speaker 1: top to bottom, and then you see what happens. You 2366 01:59:59,640 --> 02:00:03,120 Speaker 1: see how plays out with injuries, even like we saw 2367 02:00:03,640 --> 02:00:06,240 Speaker 1: snippet in the two thousand and nine season, when I 2368 02:00:06,320 --> 02:00:07,960 Speaker 1: can't get these guys to do what I want them 2369 02:00:08,000 --> 02:00:10,520 Speaker 1: to do. Like he knew during the season that this 2370 02:00:10,800 --> 02:00:13,320 Speaker 1: wasn't like probably a team that was gonna go anywhere, 2371 02:00:13,480 --> 02:00:16,920 Speaker 1: but they still made the playoffs a lot, still trying 2372 02:00:16,960 --> 02:00:20,040 Speaker 1: to win games. Alana sent us an email about not 2373 02:00:20,200 --> 02:00:24,120 Speaker 1: mentioning Brady, and just as she said that or sent 2374 02:00:24,200 --> 02:00:27,520 Speaker 1: the email, Megan called, so she was like, oh my god, 2375 02:00:28,080 --> 02:00:31,160 Speaker 1: as you mentioned Brady to Megan, I literally sent the email. 2376 02:00:32,120 --> 02:00:37,400 Speaker 1: So either I thought you can have that one. Yeah, yeah, 2377 02:00:38,440 --> 02:00:42,960 Speaker 1: um let's see. Yeah, Paul writes in from Drake, it 2378 02:00:43,440 --> 02:00:47,680 Speaker 1: not listening live, so if it's been covered already, my apologize. Paul. 2379 02:00:48,240 --> 02:00:50,960 Speaker 1: At one hour in twelve minutes into Tuesday show, you 2380 02:00:51,080 --> 02:00:54,760 Speaker 1: made a bold end statement that Bolden would be back. 2381 02:00:55,120 --> 02:00:57,840 Speaker 1: Boy did that hot take? Cool fast? I think he 2382 02:00:57,960 --> 02:01:00,840 Speaker 1: was being snarky. I think was not a rule. I 2383 02:01:00,880 --> 02:01:03,440 Speaker 1: think he meant it. No, But you know Paul. I 2384 02:01:03,480 --> 02:01:07,480 Speaker 1: think he was kind of he said he'll be back. Wow. 2385 02:01:07,760 --> 02:01:09,440 Speaker 1: Well that's the thing with Paul. You never can quite 2386 02:01:09,480 --> 02:01:11,520 Speaker 1: pin him down, like it's just it's always gonna be 2387 02:01:11,720 --> 02:01:13,640 Speaker 1: the next next thing. He thought he was gonna be 2388 02:01:13,720 --> 02:01:17,120 Speaker 1: bad because that's what Bill does. See, he doesn't know 2389 02:01:18,360 --> 02:01:20,800 Speaker 1: and he knows. You can never say that's what Bill 2390 02:01:20,880 --> 02:01:23,520 Speaker 1: does because we don't know what Bill does. Yea, you know, 2391 02:01:23,720 --> 02:01:25,960 Speaker 1: there is no one way. I think if Brandon King 2392 02:01:26,040 --> 02:01:28,040 Speaker 1: was signing would be the one to make Paul's head explode. 2393 02:01:28,080 --> 02:01:30,040 Speaker 1: That would be like the cherry like it's just a 2394 02:01:30,200 --> 02:01:33,600 Speaker 1: pure special teamer who's like thirty three. But I'm with 2395 02:01:33,680 --> 02:01:36,280 Speaker 1: you if they bring back High Tower, I'll be with you. 2396 02:01:36,840 --> 02:01:39,720 Speaker 1: I will not like that, yep, yep. And that's it's 2397 02:01:39,720 --> 02:01:42,120 Speaker 1: hard to say because you love High Tower. But I 2398 02:01:42,240 --> 02:01:44,280 Speaker 1: just think that's where they need to get like younger. 2399 02:01:44,480 --> 02:01:47,400 Speaker 1: Like if somebody said to me High Tower or van Noy, 2400 02:01:47,920 --> 02:01:50,440 Speaker 1: forget about money, I would say van Noy, I think 2401 02:01:50,480 --> 02:01:53,280 Speaker 1: he did more last year than High Tower did. But 2402 02:01:53,320 --> 02:01:55,880 Speaker 1: who would you rather have? Off the feeling, well that 2403 02:01:56,360 --> 02:01:58,240 Speaker 1: I think they told you about that. But but you 2404 02:01:58,280 --> 02:02:01,160 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Yeah, but you know what I say, 2405 02:02:01,280 --> 02:02:03,240 Speaker 1: like like I don't want either one of them, but 2406 02:02:04,200 --> 02:02:06,680 Speaker 1: you know i'd pick van Noy over High Tower at 2407 02:02:06,720 --> 02:02:09,200 Speaker 1: this point in their career. Certainly not years ago, but 2408 02:02:09,400 --> 02:02:11,839 Speaker 1: right now. So if you're not gonna bring van noyback, 2409 02:02:11,880 --> 02:02:14,200 Speaker 1: you should you shouldn't bring High Tower? Bad? Do you 2410 02:02:14,240 --> 02:02:16,960 Speaker 1: always go along? When Paul? All right? Oh my god, 2411 02:02:18,000 --> 02:02:20,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, how long were we going here? Sorry 2412 02:02:20,080 --> 02:02:22,400 Speaker 1: about bonus time? Yeah, well it makes up for all 2413 02:02:22,400 --> 02:02:24,760 Speaker 1: the times we end like three minutes early. So right, 2414 02:02:25,000 --> 02:02:26,720 Speaker 1: all right, Well that's gonna be it for this edition 2415 02:02:26,880 --> 02:02:30,880 Speaker 1: of Patriots Unfiltered.
