1 00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: Okay, welcome to the Official Jets Podcast, presented by Amazon 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,720 Speaker 1: Web Services. Ethan Greenberg here with Olivia Landis and Eric Allen, 3 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 1: all in our respective homes, and uh, this is a 4 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 1: weird time considering one the legal tampering period just started 5 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,639 Speaker 1: to we're all cooped up in our houses and three 6 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,920 Speaker 1: feels like everything happened, but nothing happened at the same time. 7 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 1: So I just want to start things off by asking 8 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 1: how the both of you are doing in your respective homes. Well, 9 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: I have been cooped up. Now what is this guy? 10 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: This is day five or so for us, and I 11 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: have my dog, but I do live alone, so I'm 12 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: going a little crazy. We've been taking a lot of 13 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 1: walks outside, but it's a little tough, you know, talking 14 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 1: to your dog all day. Uh, man and woman's best 15 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: friend a dog. Listen, I gotta say that, Uh, this 16 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: is a surreal experience. I think for all of us. 17 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: The coronavirus has taken the world by storm. We got 18 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: more than what four thousand cases in the United States. 19 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: More than seventy people have already died. Um states across 20 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: the country A banned large gatherings. You know, I'm hearing 21 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: people say that you shouldn't be around more than ten 22 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: people in the same room. Um, and we all have 23 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: a hand in protecting each other. So because this is 24 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: a community, I mean, this is really when it's important 25 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: for you to take care of everybody else. And and 26 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: what's so surreal, guys, is that you know, we're supposed 27 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: to be taking care of other people by actually is 28 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: staying away from them. And and the other thing is 29 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: is we're such a social um being, We're such as 30 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: social animal. So I think it's a difficult. I just 31 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: went to the store, and in New Jersey there is 32 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: a curfew now mandated. Went to the store about seven 33 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: o'clock tonight. I got a piece of salmon, and a guy, 34 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: a gentleman who was serving me, said, we're gonna be 35 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: all right, aren't we? And I said, I should certainly hope. 36 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: So so, uh, nothing, nothing is normal right now. But uh, 37 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: I think that the best thing we can do is 38 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: uh talk to people and communicate and share with them 39 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: our thoughts, not only the Jets in the National Football League, 40 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: but how our lives are being impacted, and also letting 41 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: them know that we're very concerned about each and everybody. Well, yeah, 42 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 1: I think that's a great point. I also think that 43 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: I said this to Olivia earlier today when I went 44 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: to the grocery store, felt like I was in the 45 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: Hunger Games, like it's just everybody's going crazy, and the 46 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: thought that you know, football is not stop, and I 47 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: don't leave to know what it would be like for 48 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: us if this would have happened during the NFL season. 49 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: So I'm thankful that it's during the off season. And 50 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: it's just it's one of those my roommates said this 51 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: to me. I think it's I think it kind of 52 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: hit home. It's like we're living a chapter in a 53 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 1: history textbook right now, and I think that's just it's 54 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: just gonna be crazy to think back, even a year 55 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 1: from now, to think that on March on St. Patrick's Day, 56 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: we were cooped up in our apartments because it's for 57 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: the best of society, and you know, I'm a people person. 58 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: I want to be I want to be at at work, 59 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: I want to be outside, and to be to be 60 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: in my apartment all day is just driving me a 61 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: little crazy. Yeah, absolutely, I agree with that. You know, 62 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: in the NFL, what was that, Well, the NFL hasn't stopped, 63 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: and I think that's Uh, I think that's really where 64 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna kick things off here, because even though the 65 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: Corona virus or COVID eighteen, however you want to call it, 66 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: is greatly affecting everybody's lives on the day to day basis, 67 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: And of course the NBA suspended and definitely March Madness 68 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: shut down, no March Madness, three March Madness screens. March 69 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: Madness is probably my favorite, uh sports viewing of the year. 70 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: When we get a ray from the National Football League 71 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: and you feel bad for so many people, including uh, 72 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: not just the college athletes, but how about how about 73 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 1: the college kids who have to maybe finish their senior 74 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: years from on a computer and not being around other people, 75 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: and so many schools across the country uh closed, obviously 76 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: daycare centers. Um yeah, but uh, you're right. And what 77 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: happened over the weekend was there was that period uncertainty 78 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: where you didn't know what was going to happen. First, 79 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: was the seed A going to be passed? And if 80 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,799 Speaker 1: it was passed, We're we gonna go on with NFL 81 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: free agency as scheduled. And I'll tell you what, guys, 82 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: I've never experienced, Um, a number of days like we've 83 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 1: had since the weekend, because it's just has just come 84 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: in waves every past the day. And I didn't know 85 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: if we were gonna have free agency, we're gonna get 86 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: to this point where we're gonna start the negotiating period. 87 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 1: But it actually happened. But it all started Greens and live. Um, 88 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: I guess Saturday night in the Sunday morning when the 89 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: cb A just narrowly passed. Yeah, yeah, Look, I just 90 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: wanted to ask you because away from football, one the 91 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: thing that stuck out to me about what how this 92 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: whole thing has hit me is in a number of ways. 93 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: I would imagine for you, it was when the NBA 94 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: got suspended and definitely like that really when you're like, 95 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 1: oh my god, like this is this is going downhill 96 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: and it's gone down hill quickly. Yeah. Honestly for me, 97 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: I have and you've probably seen this at work, but 98 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 1: I've low keeping keeping an eye on this whole situation 99 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: for probably a solid month month and a half now, Um, 100 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: and you know, it is, it's scary, It's it's given 101 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: me a lot of anxiety personally, especially you know, kind 102 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: of living by myself and not really having any family 103 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: out here. But I think last week, when, yes, when everybody, 104 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 1: it was heard around the world that Rudy Gobert had 105 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: contracted the coronavirus, and you know, following that, the NBA 106 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: decided to pretty much shut down the entire season. I 107 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: think that's when the entire world was like, oh no, 108 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: this is actually very very serious. But I mean, honestly, 109 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: this has been on my radar for quite a while now, 110 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: so I'm kind of like that though. I'm a little 111 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 1: bit of a warrior so and a germophobe, so this 112 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: is definitely like your worst nightmare coming to life. But 113 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: hold on, I am as well, So don't take shots 114 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: that lived there. Yeah, where you lights all down your 115 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,119 Speaker 1: desk like every day at the end and your phone. 116 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: I see it happen. I know, uh, may you have 117 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: an understanding germophobe to germophobe. So my my hands are 118 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: so raw just from washing them like a thousand times 119 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: a day that it hurts to put hand motion on 120 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: my hands, you know what I mean. You'd rather have 121 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: that than germs. That's fair. But in terms of the NFL. 122 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,239 Speaker 1: To get back on track, is this is the official 123 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: Jets podcast. There's a lot of a lot of things 124 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: have happened in terms of events. Obviously, the things that 125 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: stand out most notably or most recently, should I say, 126 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: is that organized team activities o t A s uh. 127 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: There's not a start date anymore. And the NFL draft 128 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: now is it's still April, but they canceled all like 129 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: public draft events and we'll see what that means in 130 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: terms of fans showing up for the draft. I assumed 131 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: that's probably a no go considering what EA was saying. 132 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: Gathering of ten people is a bad idea, and the 133 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: draft is definitely a little more than ten people. But 134 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: also in terms of pre draft one all pre draft 135 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: visits for college kids on their top thirty visits to 136 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: the different NFL facilities. That's next in the bud. Then, 137 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: most recently what a Schefter put out today. Adam Schefter 138 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: recently a couple of hours ago put out that teams 139 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: can't go to the floor. Excuse me, players that signed 140 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: with teams in free agency, which is still abiding by 141 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: the same timeline that it was scheduled to can't go 142 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 1: to a team's facility to get a physical, and therefore 143 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: there needs to be an agreement to a certain physician 144 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: or a player can just straight up decline a physical exam, 145 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: which is I believe on press in edit and something 146 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: like this right A. Now, I have never heard anything 147 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: like that, but extreme times call for extreme measures. And 148 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: like you you mentioned, the league put out a statement 149 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: tonight about club personnel, including members and the club medical staff, 150 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: may not travel to any location to meet with or 151 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: conduct a medical examination of a free agent player. So yeah, 152 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: I mean back if forever it was hey, the guy 153 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: did not or will not be part of your team, 154 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 1: your organization until he physically signs a contract. And the 155 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: big stuff in that is, okay, you have a financial 156 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: agreement in place, that's fine, but you have to pass 157 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: our physical and sometimes guys will fail physical. Um. But 158 00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: right now you know, the league, the players Association, everybody 159 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: has to take a number of precautions here. So uh yeah, 160 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: never never, this never would have happened in the past. Live. 161 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: I just want to get your opinion on, first of all, 162 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 1: just everything being canceled or postponed the way it is 163 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: in terms of the NFL. And the second part of 164 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: this is you know you were scheduled to go to 165 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: the draft. I don't know what this means for you necessarily, 166 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: but obviously this is kind of a ah, a crappy 167 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: thing for lack of a curseword here, Yeah, I think 168 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: like he said, you know, I've only been in the 169 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: NFL this since I'm heading into my fourth season, and 170 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: obviously in my now almost four years, I've never experienced 171 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: something like this, and I think what really stuck out 172 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 1: to me was the fact that they're just straight up 173 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: not allowing players to come to facilities and um coaches 174 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: and stuff travel as well, because when you think about it, 175 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: last year, obviously, when Adam Gates became the new head 176 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: coach for the Jets, they were able to start two 177 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: weeks earlier in their O t s. And now, when 178 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: you think about it, the coaches that are new this 179 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: season aren't going to have that luxury. So you're kind 180 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: of wondering how are some of these teams going to 181 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 1: play catch up when it comes time to training camp 182 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. So that is kind of crazy 183 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: to me. And as far as the draft goes, I 184 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: think we're really waiting to hear more details on that. 185 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: But you know, just based off of what has been 186 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: going on around the world and some of the regulations 187 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: that have been put in place, A highly doubt that 188 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: we're going to be sending a team to travel there. 189 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: But you know, like I said it, we'll have to 190 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: wait and see. But it's a scary time. That's still 191 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: a month away, though a lot can change in a month. Yeah, 192 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: I don't even know if Las Vegas is going to 193 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 1: be the base operation of the draft. That's one thing 194 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: that I didn't understand about that. Maybe you guys had 195 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: more clarity than I did. But when I was reading 196 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: all the literature on that today, they said that all 197 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: the fan events in all the big events in Las 198 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: Vegas had been canceled, but they didn't go as far 199 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: as I didn't read it, where is the draft in 200 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: Las Vegas had been canceled? But I'm assuming it won't 201 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: be in Las Vegas anymore? Oh see. I interpreted it 202 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: that that everything would remain status quo, that it'll be 203 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 1: in Las Vegas, and that the media networks meeting, NFL 204 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: Network and ESPN will cover it like they usually do. 205 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: But there may not be any fans. I don't know. 206 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: I didn't really, to be honest with you, I didn't 207 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: read over with a five tooth comb, but just because 208 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: like there's so many moving parts which we're gonna get 209 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: into just in a couple of year, but obviously we'll 210 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: see and like, you know, everything happened so quickly with 211 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 1: the virus that it feels like anything could happen just 212 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: so as quickly on the opposite end, and things start 213 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: to you know, turn for a positive light here in 214 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: our society. But I want to I want to get 215 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: back to today because today is like one of the 216 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 1: most exciting days in the NFL season. Wednesday is the 217 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 1: start of the new league year, and today at twelve 218 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:21,719 Speaker 1: noon became the legal tampering period. But before that, at 219 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: eleven fifty nine and fifty nine seconds was the deadline 220 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 1: to place any kind of franchise tag on any kind 221 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: of player, whether it's transition tag, non exclusive franchise tag, 222 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: or exclusive franchise tag. And the big news here, at 223 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: least for the Jets, is that the Giants placed their 224 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 1: franchise tag non exclusive on defensive lineman Leonard Williams, which 225 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: means the Jets got the third round pick in the 226 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: one draft and the fifth round pick, which was a 227 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: conditional pick in the twenty one draft, remains a fifth 228 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 1: round pick and does not become a fourth round pick. Well, 229 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 1: Live actually is gonna have an article on this, uh 230 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: that we're gonna publish on Wednesday. But what the franchise 231 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: tag actually did was provide them an extension meeting. They 232 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: want Leonard Williams in the fold, so the Giants didn't 233 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: want him to get out there. He would have become 234 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: an unrestricted free agent, so they're buying themselves sometime. But 235 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: with that being said, Greens, I would just like to 236 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: clarify it and it still could become a fourth round 237 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: pick in one if Williams signs an extension prior to 238 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: Wednesday at four pm. My expectation as your expectation, and 239 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: I think liv would say the same thing is I 240 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: don't think that's happening prior to Wednesday at four pm, 241 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: so it probably will be indeed a fifth round pick 242 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: in so until that becomes official, I we still got 243 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: about what less than twenty four hours, but yeah, the 244 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: franchise take basically I'm close to putting that, setting that 245 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: in stone. That's gonna be a fifth round pick because 246 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: I don't think the long term extension is gonna happen 247 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: before Wednesday at four But I would say to give 248 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: Joe Douglas a lot of credit with that trade because 249 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: he got he gets the third round pick this year 250 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: and the Jets have four picks in the top eight overall, 251 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: and then next year in additional five. Calais Campbell, who 252 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: is one of the top three four defensive ends and 253 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: all the National Football League got treated on Sunday from 254 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: Jackson Field to Baltimore for just a fifth round pick, 255 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: which was stunning to me. Liv What are your thoughts 256 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: on the deal as as he said, the fifth round 257 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: pick seems like it's gonna be a fifth round pick, 258 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: and I feel like when you look at the value, 259 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: just as he did with Clais Campbell, it feels like 260 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: Jets did got it themselves a pretty good haul for 261 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: Leonard Williams. Yeah, I I totally agree. I think the 262 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: Clays Campbell situation is a really great example and kind 263 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: of just reiterating back to what you said about Joe 264 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: Douglas e A. Obviously, the Leonard Williams trade during that 265 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: trade deadline, it was the only trade that he had 266 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: made and he I think he did a great job. 267 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: He got two picks out of it, a third rounder 268 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: and then a conditional pick, which like we already mentioned 269 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: we think it. If I had to take an educated guest, 270 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: I would say that the Giants and Letter Williams are 271 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: not going to come to a long term deal before 272 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: four pm on Wednesday, So I think it is going 273 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: to stay a fifth round pick. But I mean when 274 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: you get a third round pick in and then a fifth, 275 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: I would say that the Jets won that deal. That's 276 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: my personal opinion. Yeah, And I think the other part 277 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: of this is that when you look at the Jets 278 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: defensive line, clearly one of the strengths of their team, 279 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: and you know, we can talk about those guys at 280 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: a later date, but moving forward, they have a young 281 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: core group of defensive lineman and Joe Douglas is consistently 282 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 1: talked about winning the line of scrimmage. And there's so 283 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: many angles to this. I mean, you look at the 284 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: third round pick, and a lot of draft analysts say 285 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: the middle class of this entire draft class, which is 286 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: I would say probably rounds two through four, like that's 287 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: where a lot of good players lie. And just to 288 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 1: keep things draft centric right here, and this is gonna 289 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: be a kind of a winding road to get to 290 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: my point, but the news of today and I understand 291 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: nothing becomes official until Wednesday. But the news of today 292 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: in the NFL is the fact that DeAndre Hopkins, the 293 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: star wide out for the Texans, got traded to the 294 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. And what's amazing in all of this, at 295 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: least to me, is that the Texans didn't get a 296 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: first round pick and return for DeAndre Hopkins. And I'm 297 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: not here to question Bill O'Brien or anything like that 298 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: who's acting as the Texans general manager and head coach. 299 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 1: But the Cardinals were consistently mocked and mocked on. When 300 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 1: I say mocked, I mean they're mockeddrafts consistently had an 301 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 1: aldlignement or receiver, particularly Seedee Lamb who played with Kyler 302 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: Murray at Oklahoma. Now that they have DeAndre Hopkins, which 303 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: is still amazing to me, they seen that they're most 304 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: likely going to take at offensive lineman one of the 305 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: Big Four, and the Jets have also been mocked a 306 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: ton of offensive lineman throughout this draft process. So, E, 307 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: how do you think that this trade could impact the 308 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 1: Jets come April, with or without fans in Las Vegas 309 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: or wherever the draft is gonna be. Okay, So, it's 310 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: Monday night. Um, I believe in a few moments ago, 311 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 1: Adam Schefter ESPN Insider has reported that former Seahawks tackle 312 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: George Fans has reached your agreement with the Green and White. 313 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: So we'll have to look at that as hours and 314 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: then days continue and that's how quickly things can change. 315 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: And um, again, we're kind of in unknown territory once again, 316 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: I would say that because typically teams in the past 317 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:21,360 Speaker 1: won't announce contracts until a player actually physically signs UM. 318 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: And the lead year doesn't begin until Wednesday four pm. 319 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: So Um, the Jets, uh, we'll have to see organizationally 320 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: if they put something out there as far as an 321 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 1: agreement and principle and hours and days or maybe wait 322 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: until Wednesday as far as fat but numerous media outlets 323 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 1: actually reporting that now. So the Jets uh, no surprise 324 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: there looking to fortify their offensive line. And you asked 325 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: me a question that led me to go in that direction. 326 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 1: But uh, I know a lot of people have questions 327 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: of out, Um, what was going to happen once this negotiation, 328 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: a new negotiating period had begun And listen, it started 329 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: at twelve o'clock. It's only nine hours later. The league 330 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 1: year doesn't officially commence until Wednesday. Again, like a broken record. 331 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 1: I would like to say too, in terms of Joe Douglas, Okay, 332 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 1: we knew all along that he was going to take 333 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: a calculating, a calculated approach. He was gonna set rages 334 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: in terms of players and contracts. He was gonna stick 335 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: to them. He is a patient man, and this is 336 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,360 Speaker 1: a guy who was not about winning free agency. Okay, 337 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: we can talk about teams in the past to have 338 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: won free agency and with those big splash moves, and 339 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: very often those teams in January and February, we're not 340 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: talking about them again. So the Jets are just getting 341 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 1: started here with free agency. H So sorry to lead 342 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: in that direction, Greens, but I thought that that news 343 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,400 Speaker 1: coming across the board, we should throw it out there. 344 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 1: I agree with that. But now that you didn't answer, 345 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask Live what she thinks of the DeAndre 346 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: Hopkins deal. Because I was walking to pick up some 347 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 1: lunch and Live I almost like dropped my phone in 348 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: the middle of the street to Hoboken. It's probably a 349 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: bad idea on any day, and probably a bad idea 350 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: considering the coronavirus, especially today. So what was your reaction 351 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: to DeAndre Hopkins getting traded and what do you think 352 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: the after the ripple effect is here for the Jets. 353 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: I think it's one of those trades we see it 354 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 1: every single year, but it's one of those traits that 355 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: kind of shakes the sports world where you're just like, 356 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: did that really happen? And you know, just when you 357 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 1: evaluate this trade. I mean, I'm no analysts, so I'm 358 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: not going to go into deep details, but like from 359 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: an outsider looking in, when you look at this trade 360 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: and kind of what the Cardinals got and then what 361 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: the Texans got, I just feel like the Cardinals really 362 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: came out on top of this one. Like you mentioned 363 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,880 Speaker 1: that in a lot of mock drafts, the Cardinals had 364 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: mocked a lot of the Cardinals were going to either 365 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: be taking, you know, a wide receiver or some player 366 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: of that sort, and now it's like they literally have 367 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: one of the top wide receivers in the league. I 368 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: don't I don't even know how you can on a 369 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: on the Texans end. I don't even know how you 370 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 1: can like back up that decision that is made. But again, 371 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: like you said, I'm not any professional GM. I'm not 372 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,679 Speaker 1: a professional coach, but from an outsider looking in, I 373 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,199 Speaker 1: just really feel like the Cardinals won that trade, and 374 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: as far as how that can affect the Jets, I 375 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,719 Speaker 1: feel like, maybe now the Cardinals aren't going to be 376 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: taking one of the top wide receivers in the draft. 377 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: You know, maybe now that gives the Jets a little 378 00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: bit more flexibility and they're able to have some more 379 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 1: players available when it's their turn. I think I think 380 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,679 Speaker 1: Arizona is gonna go tackle Green's, don't you? At eight? Overall, 381 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 1: it sure feels like that, And you know, I was 382 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: thinking about this today. They've resigned DJ hump Frees a 383 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago and he will probably play left tackle, 384 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: and Justin Pew Syracuse along shout out to Justin Pew 385 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 1: plays the right side for the Cardinals. But hey, there's 386 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: not a lot of Syracuse alum in the NFL. I 387 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 1: heard that live. It a little giggle. I have to 388 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 1: shout about when they exist in Two of them were 389 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: on the Cardinals, and so I would feel like, yes, 390 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: they take a tackle, but e A, what what about this? 391 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 1: I was thinking about this too. What if Derek Brown, 392 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: who's like the top defensive lineman falls to them at 393 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: eight or even somebody like Jeff A. Kuda. So then 394 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: the if you if you think about this, the league 395 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: is going a passing route, and Joe Douglas said, you 396 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 1: need obviously you need playmakers on offense, and then you 397 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: need corners and pass rushers on defense. And the Cardinals, 398 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: if Jeff of Couda falls to eight overall, they could 399 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: have Larry Fitzgerald and DeAndre Hopkins lining up out wide, 400 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: and then on the defensive side of the ball, they 401 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,919 Speaker 1: could have Patrick Peterson and Jeff Acuda. I mean, I 402 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: think that that would be a cool little quartet there. Okay, okay, 403 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: no doubt you've done your study. I would say that 404 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: bringing in Kingsbury. Yeah, they drafted Kyler Murray last year 405 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: and he impressed. Now you've given him a big time receiver. 406 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 1: I make the argument that, for my money, DeAndre Hopkins 407 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: is as good as any receiver in National Football League. Now, 408 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: was I surprised by the trade? Not by the time 409 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: I read Peter King Monday morning and he said he 410 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: might be out there in terms of being available for trade, 411 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,239 Speaker 1: and indeed that happened. So what was happening behind the 412 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: scenes there you never know with Bill O'Brien and DeAndre Hopkins. 413 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: Obviously um Billy oh is calling the shots there in Houston, 414 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 1: So I wasn't surprised. But when I think about the 415 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: way that franchise has gone with an offensive minded young 416 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 1: head coach in Cliff Kingsbury and Kyler Murray and now 417 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: they get the big time receiver um and the hop 418 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: I could picture them loading up on that offensive line 419 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: now and getting one of the top tackles. Question when 420 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: it comes to this trade, when you think about it, 421 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: do you and this is strictly opinion, do you think 422 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 1: that Keensbury approached O'Brien or you think it was vice versa. 423 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,479 Speaker 1: You know, I was thinking about that earlier because the 424 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: first trade that came out of this whole deal between 425 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: the teams was the fact that David Johnson had been 426 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: traded to the Houston Texas, and I was like, okay, Like, yeah, well, 427 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: David Johnson the Houston Texans, maybe they want to upgrade 428 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: at the running back position. And then which all was right? 429 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: And then Chef the like out of the sky drops 430 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: the DeAndre Hopkins that's traded in the deal, Like I'm 431 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: curious if the if the conversation was hey, um, Bill 432 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 1: O'Brien's like, it's Steve Comes, the general manager of the Cardinals, 433 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: like Hey Steve, or hey Mr com like what do 434 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 1: you think about, um, David Johnson, what would it take 435 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 1: to get him? And then Come was like, well, what 436 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: order to take to get Hopkins? Or if it was 437 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: David Johnson was or if Hopkins was the center of 438 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: the deal or the originator of the deal, and then 439 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: David Johnson became a part of it because the Cardinals 440 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 1: also placed the transition tag on Kenyan Drake, who they 441 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: acquired mid season last season. So that's a great question 442 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: because I was thinking the same thing and I would 443 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: love to know the answer to that. Yeah, it's it's 444 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: interesting to think about. And also, UM live and e A. 445 00:26:55,480 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: I tweeted out earlier, UM if people had any questions 446 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: for so if anything sparks either of your eyes, just 447 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 1: let me know. I'm gonna start going through some of 448 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: these questions and the other part of this podcast. Oh 449 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, go ahead, you no, I'm just gonna say, 450 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: fans and interesting guy. You know he played college basketball 451 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: Western Kentucky. Um, you want you want to get in 452 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 1: on the George Bant talk. Well a little bit, okay, 453 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: because I just think it's I think it's so topical. Um, 454 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 1: a guy who played college basketball at me, he's got 455 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 1: good feet, greens and live. Another thing is he developed, 456 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: uh with Seattle for the last few years, four years, 457 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: he's twenty seven years old. Um. Interesting move here by 458 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: Joe Douglas is uh free agency gets under way for 459 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: the Jets. Yeah, And you know, I'm just looking at 460 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 1: a couple of things. It seems like he started fourteen 461 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: games over the past two seasons, so we started seven 462 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,719 Speaker 1: and ten and seven and eighteen. And my biggest question 463 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: for Joe Douglas is where do they envisioned George fan 464 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: playing with this beyond the right side? Would this beyond 465 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: the left side? Because Calvin Beecham and Brandon Shell, who 466 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: are the Jets opening day starters at tackle, are both 467 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: free agents. So I think that I think this is 468 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: just a tip of the iceberg. And I know a 469 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 1: lot of fans were you know, clamoring for the Joe 470 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 1: Tuneys of the world who got franchise tagged by the 471 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: Patriots and Jack Conklin, who was set who the Brown 472 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: supposedly signed or reported the Brown sign and Graham Glasgow. 473 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: But I still think that there are a lot of 474 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 1: quality moves that Jets can make in free agency, not 475 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 1: only in the first eve, but also really the second wave. 476 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: And if you talked about this e A everybody that 477 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: that has I've spoken to that what I've asked, Hey, 478 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: what do you think about Joe douglas Is free agency approach? 479 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: They've all said, Oh, I think it's going to be 480 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: more of a calculated approach and he's not gonna go 481 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 1: for the big fish. And you know you said this earlier. 482 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 1: You know, teams that win free agency do they The 483 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: success rate is not great there and that's how you 484 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: get yourself in a bind. And I think Joe Douglas 485 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: is really trying to flesh out this roster and look 486 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: and live you you've talked to to have two people 487 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: in the league too. Like, it doesn't seem like Joe 488 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: Douglas is um. It doesn't seem like he will get unfhased. 489 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: It seems far sorry it phase he is unfazed. He 490 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: seems very calm and like he has a plan and 491 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: if the negotiating, if the money gets to be too much, 492 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: and he doesn't feel comfortable spending that. He's gonna say, 493 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: you know what, like, I appreciate your time, thanks for coming, 494 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: unless we want to the next guy, I would say that. Yeah, 495 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: I think that kind of jumping off of your point. Um. 496 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: I actually even read a suite from Dan Graza earlier 497 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: and he was talking about Joe Douglas being a guy 498 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: who learned under Ozzy Newsome and how back in Baltimore 499 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: it was a very big deal about you know, they 500 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 1: were never really a team to really jump in on 501 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: that first wave of free agency that you were talking about. 502 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: And you know, even though, like you said, George Fannon 503 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: isn't necessarily a guy that jumps out at you right 504 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: on the page right away. But I think Joe Douglas 505 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: obviously knows what he's doing. He's there for a reason, 506 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: and I think there's plenty of good value um that 507 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: is going to come in the second and third waves 508 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: of free agencies. So yeah, God put big trust, thank you. 509 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: You gotta put big trust in the big Man and 510 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: e A. I don't know if you want to talk 511 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: about this on the podcast, so I'm gonna ask you. 512 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: But I was kind of thinking maybe we could talk 513 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: about guys that are still on the market that maybe 514 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: intrigue you or that are intrigue Live or myself or 515 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 1: just that are option and for the Jets if they 516 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 1: decide to go any position. Really, but since we talked 517 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: about fan, maybe we can talk about some potential old 518 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: linemen that could get snacked up in these next couple 519 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: of days. Yeah, there's so many there's so many players 520 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: out there on the market. Uh. I'm kind of keeping 521 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: my eye out to get off offensive line a little bit, 522 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,959 Speaker 1: and you know, we can talk about that further. Greeds 523 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: and Live. Let's step into the receivers a little bit, 524 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: because Jameson Crowder's back, he's your nickel. I mean he's 525 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: your slave receiver. Uh. Robby Anderson unrestricted free agent, the 526 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: Marrious time, it's unrestricted free agent. Um. Hopefully Quincy and 527 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 1: noon wa it comes back to full health wool to 528 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: see what happens there. But the Jets do have some 529 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: questions on the outside and one of the best remaining 530 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: free agents on the market right now is a Maori Cooper. 531 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: So Cooper have to go first before Robbie does. And 532 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: what are the chances Robbie actually returns to the Green 533 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: and White. Yeah, I'm gonna let let answer that question first, 534 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 1: because honestly I'm looking for I'm looking through some fan 535 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,719 Speaker 1: questions as we record here. Yeah, and we we certainly 536 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: can talk while Liv gets to that too, is greens. 537 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: You know, we certainly talked about as many offensive alignment 538 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: as you both want to talk about. But I just thought, uh, 539 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: it's it's interesting where we are right now in the 540 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 1: process so early and Marie Cooper before Robbie and then 541 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: uh yeah, sorry, Live, No, it's okay. I think it's 542 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: just such an interesting situation surrounding a Marie Cooper because obviously, 543 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: earlier today we heard quarterback Dak Prescott got the franchise tag, 544 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 1: so we know that the Cowboys are probably going to 545 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: want to make a long term with him. So it 546 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: kind of makes you wonder like that it's the same 547 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: going to happen with a Mari Cooper because teams are 548 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: only allowed to franchise tags. Hear correct? Or is it 549 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: just one player is only allowed to be franchise tags 550 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: as one player is allowed to be franchise tag? So 551 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: the Cowboys placed their exclusive franchise tag on Dak Prescott, 552 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 1: which allowed a Mari Cooper to hit the open market. Yeah, 553 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 1: So honestly, it's I don't know. I wish I had 554 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: an answer to that, and I don't want to sit 555 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: here and play the guests in game. But you know, 556 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: when you hear from a lot of the Jets fans, 557 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: a lot of people obviously around the Jets fan world 558 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: are talking about wanting Robbie Anderson back, and wide receiver. 559 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson is, in my opinion, such a useful tool 560 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: to Sam Donald, and he even commented at the end 561 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: of the year when we were interviewing him, he was 562 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 1: talking about how he truly felt like him and Sam 563 00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 1: had finally gotten on a really good rhythm, especially in 564 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: the second half of the season. So you'd, you know, 565 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: like to think that Joe Douglas would notice that and 566 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 1: take note of that and hopefully try and you know, 567 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,359 Speaker 1: make a return for Robby Anderton. But again, he's going 568 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: to he's a free agent. He's going to He's already 569 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: made it very vocal that he's going to be testing 570 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: the market. So we'll see how I don't know, Yeah, 571 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 1: I think I think he You brought up an interesting 572 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,280 Speaker 1: point that would Robbie wait for Almara Cooper to almost 573 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 1: set the market at receiver, and even today, earlier today, 574 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: with all these different reports of players agreeing to terms 575 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: with different teams, if you look at the cornerback position, 576 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 1: the Giant signs James Bradberry reportedly signed James Bradberry and 577 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 1: he's the second highest paid corner of this market to 578 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: Byron Jones, former Dallas cowboy who's now taking his talents 579 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,360 Speaker 1: to the a f C East and the Miami Dolphins. 580 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,399 Speaker 1: So the Jets will be seeing him twice a year 581 00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 1: for the foreseeable future, and that that's if you get that, 582 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: then it almost seems like, well, maybe Robby Anderson wouldn't wait, 583 00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:08,280 Speaker 1: but if it happened the other way for Byron Jones 584 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,240 Speaker 1: and James Bradberry, maybe I'd be singing a different tune. 585 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 1: It just kind of feels like it kind of feels 586 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: like for the receivers. Though to your point, it feels 587 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: like that's the somebody's the first domino is gonna fall. 588 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: And if that first domino, I assume is gonna be 589 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: a Marii Cooper and then the rest will fall into place. 590 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 1: I mean, if you read all the different reports about 591 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 1: even the Jets interest in Philip door Set, who's another 592 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: speedy guy. But I mean, we'll see obviously. And just 593 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 1: by the way on this whole, uh, I'm peeping through 594 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: the fan questions, there's a lot of shade like it 595 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:46,360 Speaker 1: does not seem like Jets fans are too happy today, 596 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 1: which I'm sure people are are expecting. And when I 597 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: say people, I mean the three of us definitely expected 598 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,320 Speaker 1: Jets fans to not be so happy with me tweeting 599 00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 1: for some fan questions. So I'm trying to find some 600 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 1: good ones for this is what this is what a 601 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:06,280 Speaker 1: JEF fan wanta. Okay, guys, and and I'm not throwing 602 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 1: shade towards them either, but there are people who sometimes 603 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 1: get very upset, and their thought process was by six 604 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 1: o'clock Monday, the Jets should have had agreements in place 605 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: with Joe, Tuney, Graham, Glasgow and maybe Jack Cocklin to 606 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 1: boot and then maybe they would have been happy, happy 607 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,840 Speaker 1: at that point. But again, you're talking about a roster 608 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: where Joe Douglas said, we have a number of holes. 609 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 1: We've been talking about Joe's approach for since he came 610 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 1: on board, since June, how he was gonna be meticulous, 611 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 1: how he was going to set ranges on players, how 612 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:56,799 Speaker 1: he was not going to go over and make his 613 00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:03,240 Speaker 1: ultimately hurt his franchise in the long term. Okay, and 614 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: you know, hey, maybe the Jets did have interested a 615 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: guy like to me, but you can't do anything about 616 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 1: the New England pages putting the franchise tag on them. 617 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 1: Bottom line is, there's sometimes things are gonna happen where 618 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: teams are either gonna resign a guy or they're gonna 619 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 1: put a tag on them. I don't think a lot 620 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: of people actually anticipated that to me was gonna be 621 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: taken off the market. But you get a tackle right 622 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: now and fan, and we'll have to see what happens. Um. 623 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 1: You know some folks out there saying maybe the Jets 624 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:36,760 Speaker 1: are interested in a couple of interior players, including Greg 625 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 1: Van Roten live do you wanna Do you want a 626 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 1: fan question? Yeah? Sure, hit me with it. Well you 627 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 1: can either mine. No. I was just gonna say I 628 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 1: was gonna read you one. But um, there's a lot 629 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: of ones. Like some some fans are great though so 630 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: um Summer, you know, not not so great. But how 631 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: about this one? Um, This basically is in terms of 632 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 1: pass rushers. This is it's a blitz wants to know 633 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 1: Genavian Clowney or Dante Fowler. Who basically, who would you 634 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: prefer like? Whoo? Who would you like the Jets? If 635 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 1: you're going to make me decide between those two edge 636 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: rushers when it comes to the Jets, I personally am 637 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: probably going to lean more towards Jadavian Clowney just because 638 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:37,720 Speaker 1: this is a guy who has the experience not only 639 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,320 Speaker 1: that you see on the field, but it's also shown 640 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: up on paper with his stats. He's literally a three 641 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 1: time pro bowler. He made it. And the Jets, I mean, 642 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: Joe Douglas said himself, the Jets are in the market 643 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:57,919 Speaker 1: for an edge rusher, and I think that if you're 644 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,120 Speaker 1: really going to be serious about an edge rush, you 645 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: might as well go for a guy who is one 646 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 1: of the top, if not the top, about his position 647 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,839 Speaker 1: in the league. Hey, what about you? I go uh 648 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 1: for me follower because system fit I agree with, not 649 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 1: because he's a Florida boy, take it, take it easy. 650 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 1: I agree with live overall. If you're talking about just 651 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:34,840 Speaker 1: the better player. When Jadeveon Clowney is going for sixteen games, 652 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 1: I know he's banged up a little bit last year. Um, 653 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: he's a dominant force and Follower, Uh, last year really 654 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:49,839 Speaker 1: showed that potential he had flashed at times. I think 655 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:53,240 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville, right Greens guy had eleven and a half 656 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: sacks last year he had he had a career year 657 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,919 Speaker 1: last year or this past year at his first full 658 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: year with the Rams. And we we we talked about 659 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:07,280 Speaker 1: the Leonard Williams trade before and the way the Jets 660 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: defense is constructed is I like them on the interior. 661 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,359 Speaker 1: The question is who's gonna be bringing some heat off 662 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 1: the edge. I think Follower would be a perfect fit 663 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: for this defense. UM gonna be interesting also to find 664 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 1: out what happens with Jordan Jenkins, he said. The market, 665 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 1: UM a lot of people talking about the Crosstown Shines 666 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,720 Speaker 1: having an interest in another former Jet and Jordan Jenkins. 667 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: But in terms of UM, Fowler and Clowney, both those 668 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:42,320 Speaker 1: guys are big time talents. But I think, uh, Follower 669 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 1: would fill a bigger need for the Jets. And you know, 670 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 1: as we continue this podcast here the Officials Podcast presented 671 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 1: by AWS.

Absolutely? So, before we 687 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:52,040 Speaker 1: wrap up things here on the Official Jets Podcast, the 688 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 1: Work from Home Edition, I want to know who's a 689 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 1: player a free agent that's selling the market. And when 690 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 1: I say sell in the market, I mean that has 691 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 1: been reported that they've signed with a team because nothing 692 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 1: becomes official until Wednesday, that you'd like to see in 693 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 1: the Jets uniform next season? Okay, guy, yeah, you want 694 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 1: me to go? You you want to go, you can 695 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 1: gonna live. I actually need to think about it for 696 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 1: a minute. Hold on, give me it, you go first. 697 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:22,840 Speaker 1: How do you think about it for a minute? Because 698 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 1: there are that's that's a loaded question. There are a 699 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 1: lot of free agents out there, a lot of a 700 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 1: lot of well, yeah, you want me to go? Yeah, 701 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 1: I would like you to go because I'm thinking about it. 702 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,279 Speaker 1: You're asking me a question, and I'm thinking about in 703 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 1: terms of Joe Douglas. Yeah, And I don't know if 704 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 1: you want me to think in terms of Eric Allen. 705 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 1: Are we playing fantasy ball? Here? Are we playing? This is? 706 00:42:54,520 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 1: This is how you hold on greens. This is how 707 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: the Jets got to go about this and constructing the 708 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:08,759 Speaker 1: roster right now. You know. So I'm kinda I'm kind 709 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,840 Speaker 1: of torn a little bit here because what were the 710 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 1: holes of the Jets entered free agency? Offensive line, right edge, 711 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 1: no doubt, receiver and cornerback. So I think safe to assume, 712 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: um the Jets aren't done at the offensive line position. 713 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 1: We just your question before the fans question was a 714 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 1: tremendous one. I think follower makes a lot of sense 715 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 1: here for the Jets. What's going to happen at cornerback though. Okay, uh, 716 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 1: you mentioned brand Berry and Jones being off the market. 717 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 1: I would really like to see Brian Pool back here. No, 718 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 1: pool Pool is not back here. What was your other 719 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 1: Nickel option? Because I think you're gonna have to fill 720 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:02,920 Speaker 1: that in free agency. So I look in terms of positions, Um, 721 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 1: Fan is a guy. Let's go back to. Fan is 722 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:12,280 Speaker 1: a guy nobody talked about heading into this process. Nobody, 723 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: I think even us. We wrote free NHC previews on 724 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 1: New York Justts dot com and we didn't mention him. 725 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: But here's a guy, and an athletic guy who was 726 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:28,280 Speaker 1: a developmental playoff player in Seattle who his ceiling um 727 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:32,320 Speaker 1: he has not been reached yet and he could become 728 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 1: your left tackle here. So uh, it's a hard question, 729 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 1: uh for me to answer. But if you you've seen 730 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 1: Fantasy ball, listen, Um, I'd like to see Robbie Anderson 731 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: back here. I don't know if the I don't know 732 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 1: if the numbers are gonna work. I'd like to see 733 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:55,120 Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson back here because I think that him and 734 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:59,399 Speaker 1: sat Donald have a good connection. And uh, he quote 735 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,719 Speaker 1: unquote is on the market, even though he needs played 736 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 1: in the past four seasons with the Jet. So those 737 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,880 Speaker 1: are a couple of guys. I look at Follower, I 738 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 1: look at Robbie Anderson. Is it doable? We'll see what 739 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 1: about you live. Um, yeah, I'm kind of just going 740 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 1: to echo what he said because as far as you know, 741 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: when you think about the Jets needs, obviously, Joe Douglas 742 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 1: has mentioned offensive line, which I think personally needs to 743 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 1: be addressed first and foremost, and then you can kind 744 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 1: of get into cornerback, wide receiver, all of those kind 745 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 1: of things in the edge dresser. But I mean, if 746 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,279 Speaker 1: you want my personal opinion and our to just be 747 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: like I like, there's one guy who I really just want, 748 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 1: who is a free agent right now that I really 749 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 1: want to bring onto the team. It would be a 750 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 1: big signing. I'm gonna still stick with Jadeveon Clowney just because, 751 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,839 Speaker 1: again we were talking about edge being a huge need 752 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 1: for the Jets, and a lot of the big offensive 753 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 1: linemen that we were in the mix that we were, 754 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 1: you know, hearing rumors here and there, they've already kind 755 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,759 Speaker 1: of been snatched up. So when I'm looking at the 756 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 1: available free agents and it's like the top cornerback free 757 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,839 Speaker 1: agent by Ron Jones was already snatched up, so it's like, 758 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 1: why not now just go to a position where there's 759 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:27,080 Speaker 1: still a top elite player in the lenk available. I 760 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 1: think both of your answers are great. I think for 761 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:35,840 Speaker 1: me personally, Um, I think I think for me somebody 762 00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:37,800 Speaker 1: i'd like to see in green and white as somebody 763 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: that wore a different shade of green. And it's also 764 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: coincides with the same place that Joe Douglas came from. 765 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: I'd like to see Jason Peters, says a New York 766 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,880 Speaker 1: Jet And for a couple of reasons. One, I think 767 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,319 Speaker 1: I know he's old. He's thirty eight years old. But 768 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:56,640 Speaker 1: if you're going by his stats or which offensive linemen 769 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 1: don't really have stats, but by everybody that seems to 770 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 1: cover the Eagle and covered and followed the Eagles, just 771 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 1: here seems that Jason Peters had a very good year 772 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: at the age he had, and I think he would 773 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: be a very good presence on the Jets offensive line. 774 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:13,360 Speaker 1: That obviously he has some holes, and if theoretically the 775 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 1: Jets trap somebody at eleven, what better person to learn 776 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 1: from than Jason Peters And and on a selfish note, 777 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,360 Speaker 1: Jason Peters took a photo with one of my friends 778 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:25,600 Speaker 1: on his wedding day and they bumped into each other. 779 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 1: I think that'd be a cool story. I'd like to 780 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:33,880 Speaker 1: tell him that story face to face. So yeah, for 781 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:37,960 Speaker 1: selfish reasons and for football reasons, I think Jason Peters 782 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 1: would look good in Galtham Green and White. So, without 783 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 1: further ado, that's that's a conclusion of episode one here 784 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 1: one podcast, and it's not the conclusion I'm holding on. 785 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 1: If fans playing left back, well, where's Jason Peters plan? Well, 786 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 1: if Jason Peters is coming, I don't think George Fans 787 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:02,760 Speaker 1: plan left tackle it that way. It's so fans fans 788 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 1: playing right tackle and your dream scenario, Yeah, if Jason 789 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,920 Speaker 1: Peters signs with the Jets, I would put fant at 790 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 1: right tackle. And you brought up an interesting point like 791 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,319 Speaker 1: what happens with Calvin Beecham as he is he no 792 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:16,920 Speaker 1: longer a member of the Green and White next year, 793 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,920 Speaker 1: if Fans is viewed as the Jets is left tackle, 794 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously time will tell, but it's just some 795 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 1: food for thought here as we wrap up the show. 796 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:27,879 Speaker 1: But I would to answer your question. Yeah, if fan, 797 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:31,360 Speaker 1: if Jason Peters ends up on the Jets, I would 798 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,759 Speaker 1: I would put Fant on the right side. Do you 799 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 1: think we're gonna have some Tom Brady news that Tuesday, Pat, 800 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: I hope, so that would be That would be some 801 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:45,440 Speaker 1: spicy podcast talk and I'm all for that. So again, 802 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 1: tomorrow would be St. Patrick's day. Will be recording at 803 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:53,200 Speaker 1: night again, probably just to wrap up all the free 804 00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 1: agency trauma that goes on on the second day of 805 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,840 Speaker 1: the legal tampering period before it all becomes official. And 806 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,879 Speaker 1: some point on Wednesday, and again just to recap here, 807 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 1: the Jets reportedly made a single move today and signing 808 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:11,680 Speaker 1: former Seahawks tackle George Pant former hoops player, And obviously 809 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,640 Speaker 1: as the podcast continues on, we will continue on with 810 00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 1: more information. But you know, that's all we have here 811 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 1: tonight on the Official Jet Podcast powered by AWS Livia. 812 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,720 Speaker 1: Have a good night's sleep and we'll run it back tomorrow. 813 00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 1: See you later.
