And I will absolutely be monitoring 64 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: everything I can from the combine from home, and Mike 65 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: is there with a group of other We have a 66 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: group of five. Yeah, we got social social stuff. We're 67 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: well represented in Indie and we'll have as much of 68 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: that information for you as we can. But a couple 69 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: of guys today, Freddy, that I'm interested in we'll hear 70 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: from the Bill's contingent. Always I was interested in the 71 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: AFC East. So Sean McDermot and Brandon Bean are scheduled 72 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: to to speak this afternoon. Brian Dable for the Giants, 73 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: Nick Cassario for the Texans. Some Patriots ties there always 74 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: like to hear what Kevin Colbert has to say. Yeah, yeah, 75 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: even though he is on his way out from the 76 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: Steelers in Pittsburgh, he is one of the best. So 77 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 1: and then the Buccaneers contingent of light and Arians. You 78 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: never know what Arians will say. So, I mean, there's 79 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: all kinds of stuff we're gonna get into that. The 80 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 1: rumors and gossip going from Tampa Bay and Brady, and 81 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: I mean it's crazy because if true, man, that would 82 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: really disrupt the AFC East for the Patriots, you know, uh, 83 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: And I might as well just say yeah. I mean, 84 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: there's rumors that, uh, Brady and Derek Jeter want to 85 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: become minority owners of the Buccaneers and by the Buccaneers 86 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: of the and that Brady would play there and obviously 87 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: a lot has to do with the status of Ross 88 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: and Floras, and you know, people are just speculating that 89 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: if if the whole you know, one hundred thousand dollars 90 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: per game to Tank is true and there's actual evidence 91 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: that that could be a reason where the other owners 92 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: forced him to sell his stake in the team. Um. 93 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if even then the owners could force 94 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: him to do that, because I would imagine be lawsuits 95 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: forever blocking that. But but it is interesting that and 96 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: I think there's probably a little fire with that smoke 97 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: about Brady and Jeter being interested in becoming part owners 98 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: of a team. Do you think Brady would play and 99 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: be an owner that's what they you know, it would 100 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: be awesome. Yeah, I think fans would their heads would explode. 101 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 1: You have to play him twice? Oh, I didn't know. 102 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: I didn't necessarily mean it for that. I just met 103 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: just the prospect of him Dolphins fans. I'm having a 104 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: partial ownership in the Dolphins, Oh yeah, and playing at 105 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: the same time, like heaven can wait. I don't think 106 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: I didn't. Yeah, I don't think there's ever been a 107 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: point where a player in the NFL had part ownership 108 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: of a team. Didn't didn't your guy Elway at one 109 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: point have an offer two I believe they an owner 110 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: or alive. They got sanctions for that. No, but that 111 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: was for Stocks, yeah, I think, And I think they 112 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: got in trouble for that because it was deemed a 113 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: salary cap violation. Yeah yeah, yeah, But it wasn't Stocks 114 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 1: in the team. It was wasn't it the team. I 115 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: thought he would have a partial ownership, but that is 116 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: normally the case on Patriots unfiltered, we have enough information 117 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: to get to be dangerous. But but but not the 118 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: real not the real. But I don't know. If I 119 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: don't like in baseball, they're probably There's been player managers 120 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: and own part owners right back in the day, like 121 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: an old time. I don't think anything in modern times. No, 122 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: not in modern times. Mario Lemie would be the one 123 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: guy right he was playing, he saved the Penguins from 124 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: bankruptcy and became a part owner. Yeah, but I don't. 125 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: In the NFL, it's just the money is just too high, 126 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: like even for Brady and Jeter, Like they can't afford 127 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: to outright own a team. No, they'd be partial, right, 128 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: they'd be partial. Dolphins already have like a bunch of money, 129 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: do they do? You know? But don't don't. I mean, 130 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: in all seriousness, don't most teams, if not all, have 131 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: like a codra of minority owners. Patriots don't. They don't 132 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: have any, Nope, not that I know of. I think 133 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: we would. I think they did, No, now, yeah, I 134 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,559 Speaker 1: don't think so. I think it's completely the Craft family. 135 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: You would know more about that, Yeah, I have never 136 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: heard of any. Yeah would don't you think we would 137 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: have heard about such people? But at this point like 138 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: that they would have come out because in general they're 139 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: not famous people. It's not like Jay. I don't think 140 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: like j Low is a minority. Yeah, No, it's some 141 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: like as far as I know, I'm saying, like it's 142 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: some bank guy that you never heard of he owns Like, 143 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: but like, that's what I always thought. But don't you 144 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: think that would have been don't you think that would 145 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: have been in this day and age with you know, 146 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: everybody thinking that they're a celebrity on social media, Like 147 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: that would have come out and somebody would have done 148 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: a story on, Hey, look who the Patriots minority I 149 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: don't I don't think, but I think that's that'd be 150 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: a good problem, Like who are the minority owners in 151 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: the NFL? Like you don't know about him except for 152 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: Miami because they've been well publicized and all the people 153 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: in Green Bay. Yeah, well that's nobody owns it. That's 154 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: nobody's Alice, by the way, that that needs to be 155 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: done away with that, that whole grandfather that's nonsense. You 156 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: want somebody to buy the Packers? I do enough enough? 157 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: Um so it has written so yeah, But so like 158 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: who are the minority owners for the various teams in 159 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: the NFL? You know as here Francis W. Murray is 160 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: the minority owner of the Patriots. Oh that's the former. 161 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 1: Um now he's the former Murray. He wanted, right, wasn't 162 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: wasn't he a banker? I don't think so. He might 163 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: be a banker, but not for Bank of a Marria. 164 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: Well okay, but he was a bank executive. I sorry, what, 165 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: oh that was years ago? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm just 166 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: gonna say, Murray looking at something from twenty and fifteen 167 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: that says minority owners none, yeah, yeah for this team. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 168 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: fran Murray was he wanted to buy the Patriots at 169 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: one time. He was he was a competitor to Robert 170 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: Kraft to to be to buy the team back then. 171 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: Like he's you know, but yeah, I'm I'm pretty sure 172 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: there are no minority owners for the Patriots. But that's 173 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: not the case with every team. A lot of Tommies 174 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: that have a lot of teams that have h you know, 175 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: the owner that you see who's the face is usually 176 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 1: like a fifty one percent exactly. Well, there's a league 177 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: rule that there has to be one person who is 178 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: you know, he's the one that gets to make the decision. 179 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: He represents the team, right, you know. By speaking of that, 180 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: I watched The House of Gucci, that movie, Yeah, how 181 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: was it? Very good? And those people who say that 182 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 1: Lady Gaga was snubbed by oscars. Are right. I didn't 183 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 1: even know it was her until after the movie. She 184 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: does a fabulous You didn't know that. You didn't see 185 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: any like previews, trailers or anything. No, really, Yeah she 186 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: was great and I didn't even know. Like I said, 187 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: I didn't even know it was her until afterwards. Oh 188 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,719 Speaker 1: yeah she's good. She was good. And um star is 189 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: born too. I liked her in that. Yeah, so good movie. 190 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say great, but you know, okay, and you 191 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: know the fact that it's all based on fact, right 192 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: makes it even more interesting. Yeah, anyway, back to uh, 193 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: minority owners m Yeah, so I just think it would 194 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 1: be interesting to see who which teams have a lot 195 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: of minority I think the Dolphins have quite a few. Yeah, yea, 196 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: because I think that was one of Ross's things when 197 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: he got the team was remember he institute of the 198 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: whole orange carpet thing. Used to see what like the 199 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: whole celebrity like, oh, it's an event, let's show up 200 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: and get our picture taken. Right. Yeah that Michael Anthony, 201 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: that guy he's Mark But yeah, Michael, that's how Jayla 202 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: lost her ownership stock when she did. Yeah. So yeah, 203 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: the the NFL is an interesting so Brady and Jeter. 204 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: I wonder if they would they be the majority, Like, 205 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think they could, you know, 206 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: because you know, the league has to you know, all 207 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 1: the owners have to approve any new owner and they 208 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: have to go through like these financial tests and everything 209 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: like that. I just don't see the two, even the 210 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: two of them having enough money. You have to have 211 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: for money, do you think at least a billion? Right, well, yeah, 212 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: I mean to spend well, the you know, the value 213 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: of the Miami Dolphins is probably like three billion, now 214 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: three four billion, because they own their own stadium, right. Um, well, 215 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: look up the Forbes from last year. I mean, they 216 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 1: have the ranking of the top uh uh sports franchises 217 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: in the world, and I don't think the Dolphins were 218 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: in the top two, you know, the Patriots and like 219 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: I don't think I think very few owners or when 220 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 1: people buy a team, they put it, they buy, they 221 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: spend cash. You know, it gets financed sum. But I 222 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: think you have to have a certain amount liquid sure, 223 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: you know. Um, like David Tepper was one of the 224 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: more recent buyers. He bought the pan Panthers and he 225 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: I think he had the cash, you know. He I 226 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: just looked up Brady's net worth and Giselle's network and 227 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 1: it said Brady's was four fifty and Giselle's was four hundred. 228 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: But I don't know if Brady's is sort of including Gizelle. Yeah, 229 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: but even if they're worth together is a billion dollars, 230 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: that's not cash, No, but they're worth neither is I 231 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: mean like Roberts the family, they don't have that right 232 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: build those billions in cash. And I do know that, 233 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: you know, at that time when the Crafts bought the team, 234 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: now back then they only paid one hundred and seventy 235 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: million dollars only, you know, and that was the most 236 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: ever paid for a team at the time. As a 237 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: point of comparison, I just did the same thing for 238 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: Robert Kraft net worth eight point three billion, right, right, 239 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: So yeah, talking about a different level. Right. So, so 240 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: even at the time, even at only quote one hundred 241 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: and seventy million dollars, the Crafts had to have Bank 242 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: of America pretty much finance this thing. And it was 243 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: based on the clubs. So they got the financing because 244 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: they had they were had ten year contracts for those 245 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: club seats and that was basically the collateral, if you will, 246 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: for Bank of America financing the purchase. You know, you 247 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: had those ten year contracts in place, and that was 248 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: you know, Bank of America said, okay, this is a 249 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: sound investment for us. They were expecting people to buy 250 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: those club seats yeah, and finance. Yeah. And you know 251 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: since then, the Crafts have paid back bank of America there, 252 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: you know, but but you know, even at one hundred 253 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: and seventy million at that time, they needed, you know, 254 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: Bank of America to step up. And a lot of 255 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 1: these rich people they're smart. They don't spend their own money. 256 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 1: They rarely spend their own money when you when you 257 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: see them, Oh they bought you know, this thing for 258 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: fifty million, this house for it's all they mortgage. It's 259 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: just like us. And but they're getting like such favorable 260 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: rates because of their credit, Like it's like free money 261 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: for them. You know, they have to pay it back, 262 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: but you know, they don't spend their own way. And 263 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: that's how you find out about some of these things 264 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: with like the scandals like that show now with the 265 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: German Room. Anna, Yeah, it was inventing Anna, Like that's 266 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: how it happens is you automatically assume, oh, this is 267 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 1: some errors, so you know, some fit whatever, and every 268 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: once in a while this is a scandal and a 269 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: scam and the banks get beat. Yeah. Yeah, So it's 270 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: it'd be interesting to see what happens with that whole 271 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: Dolphin situation in the Flora suit and everything attached to that. 272 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: Um So, I don't know, I I Well, I said, well, 273 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: like I root for Tom Brady and everything he does, 274 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: I don't want this to happen. Well. The more interesting 275 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: I think element of that the Brady story in Miami 276 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: is that the thing that Floria reported earlier in the 277 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: week about tying Sean Payton and Brady to the Dolphins. Yeah, 278 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: and then this whole Brian Florish thing is sort of 279 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: throwing a whole monkey wrench into that, right. Well, that 280 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: was the whole thing they wanted to They asked New 281 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: Orleans for permission to talk to Peyton, and that was 282 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: one of the things in the floor is that Ross 283 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: wanted Flores to Tampa with Brady while Brady was in Miami, 284 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: and Flores said no. But then the you know, the 285 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: Florist suit kind of blew up everything. But like I said, 286 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: if if you know, if they can find the smoking 287 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: gun and the owners have the backbone to force Ross out, 288 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: it opens it up for other people to swoop in, 289 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: just by comparison's sake. I looked up the last year's 290 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: Forbes Top fifty sports franchises in the world. Dolphins were 291 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 1: number thirty five at two point nine billion. Okay. In 292 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: last year's list, New England was in the top ten. 293 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: They were um eighth in the world at four point 294 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: four billion. Yep, so that includes the stadium obviously, yeah. Sure, 295 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: And and Matt just texted me an update that the 296 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: Dolphins are now projected to be worth about three point 297 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: four girls, so a little bit more than last year, 298 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: which because they upgraded the stadium probably. I mean, I 299 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: don't know how accurate those Forbes things are. I mean, 300 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: but you know, the team so to speak. Yeah, the 301 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: Panthers just went for what three billion or something like that, 302 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: So you know, I just can't imagine that they're, you know, 303 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: listed at being worth four billion, but they're really only 304 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: worth one. Yeah, like it's got to be close. Yeah, yeah. 305 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: And I think what's a what's a couple of mill here? 306 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I think, what help what helps these valuations 307 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: for the NFL is it's it's the money is guaranteed 308 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: for the most part, those TV revenue contracts. I mean 309 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: they're done for ten years, so it's guaranteed revenue for 310 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: at least ten years. And they're, like Paul said, they're 311 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: not going anywhere. They're they're not going down. And then 312 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: you know, getting to the you know, this is more 313 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: like sort of things that are kind of topical in 314 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: the NFL the last week or so, like the TV 315 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: contracts you're talking about, Freddie. Look at some of the 316 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:23,360 Speaker 1: dollars being dangled in front of these announcers, color analysts, Right, 317 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: Like Troy Aikman is going to ESPN, He's gonna go 318 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: to Monday Night Football for astronomical let's say, like eighteen 319 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: millions something. Do you think it's worth it? No? God no, 320 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 1: Why do they do that then? Because they're going to 321 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: make money? No, I know, but they know it. But 322 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: you're going to make money regardless to make it. Stump like, 323 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 1: why do you agree? Yeah? I don't think they're gonna 324 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: make any more money right with Troy Aikman calling games 325 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: than they would with Bryan Greasy and Lewis Riddick, Right, like, 326 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: somebody did a poll. I think it was your guy, 327 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: Chad Finn did a poll the other day. Have you 328 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 1: ever watched a sports you know? Because of the I 329 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: and the eight percent were represented by Megan O'Brien anders 330 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: voting like right, Like I like certain announcers, but like 331 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: I'm not watch because oh John Madden isn't doing it. 332 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: I'm not watching, right, you know. Yeah, so I think 333 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: the value of these guys is overrated. I really do 334 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 1: think the play by play guy is much more important 335 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: than the color guy. Don't you know the flow of 336 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,719 Speaker 1: the game. I don't. I don't really care about either one. 337 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: But I would rather like if you're a guy who's 338 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: telling me something I don't know, then a guy who's 339 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: telling me it's first and ten. Yeah, well, I don't know. 340 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: Remember when back in the day the Jets experimented with 341 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: the game where there were no announcers. It was it 342 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: was an n Yeah, it wasn't like the Jets experimented. 343 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 1: It was the Jets Dolphins. Yeah, but yeah, yeah, NBC 344 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: um nineteen eighty. I believe they only did it once though, 345 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: you know, like for whatever reason, they didn't do it again. Yeah, 346 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: I mean there is value in having somebody, you know, 347 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: because you're just jumping in. It's the the second quarter, 348 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 1: you don't know what the hell's going I think you 349 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: need announcers. Yeah, I'm not necessarily because of every play, 350 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: but like when something happens, when there's a replay, when 351 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 1: there's something going on in the field, you know, and 352 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 1: they're telling you devil watch a game at a bar 353 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 1: and you're like, wait, what happened on this play? Was 354 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 1: he in bound? Like sometimes you need the volume just 355 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: to find out if he was in bounce? Yeah, you know, like, hey, 356 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: what happened on that? Oh there was a penalty on that? 357 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: Like you didn't see the explanation, you know. I don't know, 358 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 1: but I think announcers are important, but not eighteen million. 359 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: Can you imagine, like back to the announcing thing with 360 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: the money that they're throwing around, could you imagine that. 361 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: I don't know how serious it was, but I think 362 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 1: it was legit that Sean McVay, a thirty six year 363 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: old head coach of the Super Bowl champion, was literally 364 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: legitimately contemplating leaving coaching to be going into the booth. 365 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,239 Speaker 1: Now he has since said no, he's not doing that 366 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: and I don't know if he ever fiance his wife 367 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: or fiance. Don't know. I don't know if he ever 368 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: seriously was contemplating it or not. But that's the kind 369 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: of money. Like he's at the top of his profession, 370 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 1: which I assume was something that he has always dreamed about. 371 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: He's thirty six years old, so it's not like he's 372 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 1: like done and he was literally contemplating leaving to go 373 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: be go in the booth. I mean, he could coach 374 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: ten more years and still have a long career as 375 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: as an analyst, if that's something he wants to do. 376 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: But that's the kind of money they're throwing around. Yeah, 377 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it's I think it's a 378 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: good life. You know, you get to cover different teams. 379 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's as krusha gig as you can get. Well, 380 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: I think they work hard. I think they do a 381 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: lot of prep, you know, sure, but I mean good ones, 382 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: not heavy lifting. Yeah, no, you know. I think they 383 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: do a lot of prep. But I don't think it's hard. Anyway, 384 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: we got on the wrong line. Well we'll get Beasley 385 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 1: Reese and Ian Cross or who IRV Cross? I an 386 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 1: eagle IRV Cross and Beasley rees he gets the Beasley 387 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,719 Speaker 1: Reese right. Beasley Reese is is a local joke that 388 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,880 Speaker 1: maybe some of our listeners don't get. But when when 389 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: Fred and I were, you know, youngsters watching the Patriots 390 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: every week, getting the D list announces we got stuck 391 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: with Beasley Reese, like nineteen eighty two, it's the Patriots 392 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: Jets here in foxborow Beasley Reese right. Yeah, it was 393 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: was always the color commentator, and you know, we just 394 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 1: you knew you had the worst crew of the week 395 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: this year was James Lofton. We had him like a 396 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 1: half dozen times. I think, yeah, see, I think that 397 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: when you listen back to your point, like, would you 398 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 1: ever watching watch or not watch because of that? I 399 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: think you're just so used to the Patriots always being 400 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 1: in the spotlight. So it was always Jim Nance and 401 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: Phil Simms and now to Ye and when you were 402 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: on Fox, it's always Joe Buck and Troy Aikman. But 403 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: I think if you got games on a more consistent basis, 404 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: with the lesser cruise, you become more accustomed to how 405 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 1: they look at the game and how they call the game. 406 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: Trent Green and Dan Fouts, Yeah, those guys you know 407 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: they is good. No, probably not, otherwise they would probably 408 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: move up. But I don't think it's something that you 409 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: would look and say, oh, I can't watch this game. 410 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: And believe me, I nitpick at all the mistakes they 411 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: make all the time, just like everybody else does. Well, 412 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: I do. I do think there are there are announces 413 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 1: you enjoy listening to more than others. Yeah, you know, 414 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 1: guys who aren't as polished as analysts as others. And 415 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: I mean I know some people try even the trick 416 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: of turning down the TV volume and turning on the 417 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: radio because they like hearing. Yeah, our local guys call 418 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 1: it more. But I mean most most people don't go 419 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 1: that far. But well it's hard now with the delay 420 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 1: it up. I used to do that back in the 421 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: day with Celtics. I turn up Johnny most listen to 422 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 1: him and watch the game on TV. I honestly never 423 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: did that once something now if I know every everybody 424 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: who says they did, I did it. Yeah, I never 425 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: did it. I tried doing it at the Super Bowl 426 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: when we were sitting there in the press box, but 427 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: the delay was too long. It was like almost a 428 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: full two plays before the thing would catch up. It's like, 429 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: at that point it's worthless. I loved listen at Johnny Moss. 430 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: He was he was the worst and the best at 431 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: the same Yeah, Like he wasn't that good, but he 432 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: was just such a character. Yeah. Um. The other thing 433 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: that was announced the other day International Games for this year. 434 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: It's official that Tampa Bay will host the game in Munich. Uh. 435 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 1: And then there's gonna be two games in London, three 436 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: three games in London in a game in Mexico. Um. 437 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 1: Arizona has the Mexico game. Yeah, they're the home team 438 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: for that. Packers Saints will play at Tottenham Hotspur and 439 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: Jacks will play at Wembley. Yep. So um, likely the 440 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: Patriots will not be involved in any of those um. 441 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: And a lot of people were surprised at the Patriot's 442 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 1: weren't the team in Germany? Um. And it comes down to, 443 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,640 Speaker 1: you know, the Patriots only have eight home games this year. 444 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: Next year they'll have nine home games, and most likely 445 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: next year the Patriots will be in line to play 446 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: a game in Germany, assuming they give up a home game. Um. 447 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: And you know, now, if the Patriots were on Tampa 448 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: Bay schedule this year, then that would have been up 449 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: and you know, it could have been a possibility that 450 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,639 Speaker 1: the Patriots play the Bucks in Germany, but we're not 451 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: on the Buccaneers schedule, so that's out of the question. 452 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 1: So there's a chance you would think that, I mean, 453 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,199 Speaker 1: logic would tell you that if the Patriots have been 454 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: assigned as one of the four teams in the German market, 455 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 1: that they wouldn't be putting the Patriots to play in 456 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: London and Mexico, where they've already played in the past. Yeah, 457 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: they'd be you know, and they've already they have four teams, right, 458 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,360 Speaker 1: it's Panthers, Chiefs, Patriots, Bucks or the four German right 459 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: home market teams, and they've come to an agreement with 460 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: the next four years having games in Germany, two in 461 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: Munich too, in Frankfort, correct, Right, So you have to 462 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: assume that over that four year span all four of 463 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:14,360 Speaker 1: those teams are going to host one of those games. Probably, Yeah, 464 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: let's hope the Patriots get unit because Frankfort's quite not 465 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 1: is attractive an option. But um yeah, so this year 466 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,360 Speaker 1: probably know, Kansas City, Are they on Tampa Bay's schedule? 467 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, but because that would be a likely matchup. 468 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: If so they played last year, Um, yeah, I don't 469 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: think that. I don't know if that, I don't know 470 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: if they are that might not eliminate. Um, yeah, but 471 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: they did play, No, they didn't play last year? What 472 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 1: am I? What am I thinking? I was thinking of 473 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 1: two years? Anyway about Kansas City schedule? Hold on play 474 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 1: him in the Super Bowl last year. So even though 475 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 1: the Patriots aren't playing in Germany this year, you're going 476 00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: to be hearing some Patriots slash German news come up. 477 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 1: So working on working on some stuff, yep. So for 478 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: you German fans, um, it's gonna be good. And you know, 479 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 1: I know a lot of our other countries where we're popular, 480 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 1: like Mexico and Kay the Bucks. Yeah yeah, so that 481 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: could be Kansas City does play the Bucks. That's well, 482 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: that would be uh, I mean twenty twenty two opponents. Yeah, 483 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 1: so that's who German markets. It's likely, Yeah, that's likely. Um, 484 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: But you know for the other countries that you know 485 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 1: express concern, why well, how come the Patriots aren't hmmas 486 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 1: aren't home teams in our country. It's like UK and 487 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: Mexico and um, Germany. Now, but that doesn't mean down 488 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: the road that the Patriots won't submit, um, you know, 489 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: a proposal for the other countries too to the league. 490 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: So just a logistical question about this, since you're somewhat 491 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: involved in all this stuff, Fred, is the goal to 492 00:26:55,400 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 1: have every team be associated with an international market? I 493 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: don't think specifically, no. I think the goal for the 494 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: league is just to have to expand the international market. 495 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: And they came up with this plan to basically have 496 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: the teams do the work of the league. You know. 497 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: I think they realize that, you know, teams have been 498 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,239 Speaker 1: doing their own stuff in these countries anyway, you know, 499 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,400 Speaker 1: so let's kind of open it up and create some competition, 500 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: but also have the teams commit to being there. You know. 501 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 1: So in order to have Germany, for example, the Patriots 502 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: have to commit to a five year plan. Now, as 503 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: far as I'm concerned, we're there forever. You know, We're 504 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: not going to like go for five years and then leave. 505 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: But you know, they don't want teams going in one 506 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: year doing stuff and then leaving, and you know, they 507 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,679 Speaker 1: want commitment from the teams. So yeah, I mean the 508 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: goal is just to grow the game. Yeah, So I'm 509 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: so I'm just thinking, like It wouldn't logically makes sense 510 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: to have every team be a soociated with at least 511 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 1: one country. That way, you can really expand your international 512 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 1: But I mean, yeah, but there's only so many countries 513 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: I think that are viable honestly, Right, but you already have, 514 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: like Germany has four teams right now, I know some 515 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 1: teams some countries only have one team, right, wouldn't it 516 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 1: make sense to like associate it two of the teams 517 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: with at least one Yeah, that was just the opening foray. 518 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 1: I think they're they're taking submissions right now from teams 519 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: going forward, you know, so they'll at any time a 520 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: team can say, hey, you know, we just hired this 521 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: Brazilian kicker. Can can we can we get Brazil? You know, 522 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: can we go into Brazil? You know, there's a good 523 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: reason you can come into any you know, but you 524 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: just have to commit. Yeah, you know. Yeah, so that's 525 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: their international. Uh news Do do do? Do? Do? Do? All? Right? 526 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: Five five five hundred is the a Sticket hut Line 527 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: web radio at pagris dot com. Hopefully Douce will be 528 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: calling in from Indianapolis at some point give us the 529 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: lowdown on what's going on with the combine lots of 530 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: emails coming in at web radio at Patriots dot com. 531 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: I guess we can get to those. Um No, no 532 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: news on the JC Jackson front. Noe. We're a week 533 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: in now, and yeah, not surprising given the history that 534 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: the Patriots have with the tag and waiting till the 535 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: last minute. Um. Yeah, nothing's really changed since last week 536 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: when we talked about Jackson making his comments to Phil 537 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: Perry about not being happy that you know, he hasn't 538 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: had any discussions with the team. But again that's the 539 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: way they usually do business anyway. They kind of wait 540 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: until they have to deadline, spurring action as you like 541 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: to say. Yep, I would say that Eric is mostly right, Um, 542 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: that nothing has changed. But I, you know, in the 543 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: in the subtle read between the lines, you know, sort 544 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 1: of media thing that I like to do, as you know, 545 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 1: I like to sort of trying to read the team, 546 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: my interpretations based on some of the things I do think. 547 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: There was a a thing on Sunday Mike Reese's you know, 548 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: ten ten notes that he likes to post every Sunday. 549 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: He sort of indicated that it would be lower odds 550 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: for J. C. Jackson to be tagged yep. I don't 551 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 1: think Mike is in the business of just sort of 552 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: right he gets something uneducatedly throwing stuff around, right. Uh, 553 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: Mike is as good and as thorough as anybody in 554 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: the business. Uh, certainly coaching the Patriots, I mean covering 555 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: the Patriots. So I would say based on that and 556 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: a couple other guys kind of following suit, I would 557 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: say that that that maybe the tea leaves are reading 558 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: no with a potential tag. Um. I wrote my notes today, um, 559 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: and we posted them this morning. And I think it's 560 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: a hard decision. We've been talking about her for weeks. 561 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: I wouldn't I wouldn't tag him. I would I would 562 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,239 Speaker 1: let him walk. If you could get him at some 563 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: kind of a some kind of an extension that you 564 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: know works for you, then that would be different. But 565 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: the one year thing, I think they have more needs 566 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: than that would probably handle. So I just texted Mike. 567 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: By the way, he's going to try to call in 568 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 1: in the next ten minutes or so. Yeah, but I 569 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: think at this point it might be and again it's 570 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: not an easy one, but it might be wise for 571 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 1: them to just sort of let it go. I know 572 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: some people are upset about that. Then they're already letting 573 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: me have it on Twitter, which is okay, that's that's 574 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: what that's for. I'm glad people are reading, and I'm 575 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: glad they're interacting. I don't feel overly strongly about it. Well. 576 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: The other thing though, I think, and I think I 577 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: think Mike may have mentioned this in one of the 578 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: paragraphs in his notes, was that something we talked about 579 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 1: last week, which was would you want to tag Jackson 580 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: if you had a potential trade partner? Do a tag 581 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: and trade kind of thing so you get something in return. 582 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: And I think Mike threw that in there as a 583 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: you know, this being Combine week, all the agents, all 584 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: the decision makers are in Indianapolis. This tends to be 585 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: sort of a precursor to the legal tampering period in 586 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: the three days before the start of the new league year, 587 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: where potentially you're talking with other gms, other coaches and 588 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: maybe you work out like a handshake agreement deal for J. C. Jackson, 589 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: then you at the last minute throw the tag, get 590 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: him to sign and deal him. Now, it hasn't happened 591 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: a ton of times with the Patriots, maybe twice that 592 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 1: I can think of, twice, yeah, Tebucky Tebucky Jones and 593 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: Castle right and Matt Castle. But it's still a possibility 594 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 1: that's out there absolutely. You know. Well, I think that 595 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: if you're if the Patriots are willing to like take 596 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: a third round pick, I think it's it's a low 597 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: risk move if if you're you know, if you want 598 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: that extra draft pick. But if you if you're gonna 599 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 1: like be dead set on getting a first round pick, 600 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: too risky because I don't think you're gonna get that. Well, 601 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: to Eric's point, you find that out now, Yeah. Yeah, 602 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: you find out what you're gonna be able to get now, 603 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: and then you decide by the eighth whether or not 604 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: that's enough for you. Yeah, So you don't tag him 605 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: risking I'm going to be able to get X. Yeah, 606 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: you tag them knowing what you're going to be able 607 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 1: to get because of what goes on this week in Indie. Yeah. Now, 608 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: given the way this team has done business in the past, 609 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't you assume that, like as Mike was speculating in 610 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: his notes, Mike Rerease that if they really wanted to 611 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 1: keep a player, any player doesn't have to be Jackson, 612 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: but any year, any player who was a potential franchise 613 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: tag candidate. If they really wanted to keep him, there 614 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: would have been some sort of outreach by this point. 615 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: It might not have been in depth contract negotiations, but 616 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: there might have been some sort of like, hey, we 617 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 1: know what's down the road, we want to talk, we're open, 618 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: you know that kind of thing. I think so that 619 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: if they did tag him, it would almost be like 620 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 1: a formality, like you know, we're yeah, we're working things out. 621 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: Halfway through. Yeah, we just want to make sure that 622 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: you stick around. But even more so, you did an 623 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: extension last year. I mean, that's when you really do 624 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: it well. Sure, but there have been case is where 625 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: it gets to this point and they know they want 626 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 1: to keep the player, but you know, they only tag 627 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: him just because they know that they're working something out. 628 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 1: It seems like this might be a case where they 629 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: really don't want to keep him. And again, we're just 630 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 1: kind of trying to read between the Yeah, there's there's 631 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: a lot of but there's a lot of behind the scenes. 632 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 1: But like you know, maybe like they've told talked to 633 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: his age and said, you know, see what's out there, 634 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: you know, and come back to us. So I do 635 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: like the fact that I told you that I've gotten 636 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: some some interaction already because it posted this morning. I 637 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 1: like the fact that some people are passionate about it. 638 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: You know, just pay the man. It shouldn't be all 639 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 1: that hard, you know, pay him. And I like that. 640 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 1: What I'm interested in is that kind of opinion. I 641 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 1: want to know now what you think. Yeah, I don't 642 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 1: want to know after the fact. I don't want to 643 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 1: know the day after he signs a five year, ninety 644 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: five million dollar contract with the San Francisco forty nine 645 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 1: ers that you think it was dumb contract, right right? Yeah, 646 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: let the dumb teams pay. I want to know what 647 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 1: you think now. And that's why I like the people 648 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: that have already you know, weighed in, no, he's not 649 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,360 Speaker 1: worth it, right yeah, because the Patriots could sign them tomorrow. 650 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: But even if they say pay the man, pay them, what, like, 651 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,879 Speaker 1: what are you willing to pay them? You know, right? 652 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:23,359 Speaker 1: Because I've heard like, oh, that's what I could. That's 653 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 1: why I've been telling you he's going to be in 654 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:29,399 Speaker 1: the top five cornerbacks when when, when this is said 655 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 1: and done, So if you're not prepared to go there, 656 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 1: then let it go. Just let them go, and it's like, 657 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 1: and that's okay, Just like your discussion about the broadcasters. 658 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what the markets paying them nowadays. Right, 659 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: they're probably not they're not worth it, but that's what 660 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:47,439 Speaker 1: the markets paying. Yeah, Romo blew it out of the water. Yeah, yeah, 661 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 1: all right. Five five hundred is the ACE ticket outline 662 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: web radio at Patriots dot com. Bill and DC writes 663 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: about J. C. Jackson, right or wrong, the Patriots have 664 00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,880 Speaker 1: this reputation for not handing out big dollar contracts. Do 665 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,359 Speaker 1: you think this is solely Bill's approach or is it 666 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,800 Speaker 1: coming down from Robertcraft and Bill? And Bill is taking 667 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: a bullet for the ownership when it comes to the Patriots. 668 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: Who has the ultimate say on negotiating big ticket contracts? 669 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: After all, it is Crafts money, and I would imagine 670 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 1: Bill doesn't have a free reign without Roberts. Okay, have 671 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: we been blaming the wrong guy when players walk because 672 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 1: the Patriots won't pay them? Um? I think it's a 673 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: you know when it I think everything about that is 674 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 1: perfect except for I don't know who gets blamed. Yeah, 675 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: Like I think the way that's written, I think it 676 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,439 Speaker 1: seems like he thinks everybody blames Bill, and I don't 677 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 1: know that everybody blames Bill. I think when it comes 678 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: to big ticket contracts, you know, Robertcraft does have to 679 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: have absolutely you're not signing a guy to a one 680 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars contract without the owner's consent, right, any 681 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: in any NFL local Right, Oh we can, we can 682 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: let him wait. Oh okay, but but but that's yeah, 683 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 1: I mean I totally agree with that email. I do 684 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 1: think that's their philosophy, for better or worse. I think 685 00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:01,359 Speaker 1: the Patriots really tried to be fiscally conservative. Yeah, would 686 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:06,359 Speaker 1: you not. Yeah, But at the same time, don't miss write, 687 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,840 Speaker 1: you know, don't rewrite history. They allowed Malcolm Butler to 688 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 1: go in this similar kind of situation and signed Stefan 689 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 1: Gilmour to one of the largest free agent cornerback contracts 690 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 1: in history. Yep, just like last year they signed two 691 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 1: tight ends for the largest free agent tight end contracts 692 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:29,880 Speaker 1: in history. So it's not cheap, right, It's sometimes you 693 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: don't know their methodology calculated, right, You don't know sometimes 694 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 1: what they think. Yeah. Yeah, And the question that I 695 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: might have is who has more say on something like that? 696 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 1: Where like you lose a Super Bowl hero in Malcolm 697 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 1: Butler or you allow him to go. Does the owner 698 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: then go to the coach and say, hey, look, we 699 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: just took a huge pr hit here. We need something big. 700 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: I want to spend money, get me the best cornerback. 701 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,360 Speaker 1: Is that how the conversation work. Or does Bill go 702 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 1: to the owner and say, hey, I believe in this guy, 703 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: I really want him. We gotta pay him what we like. Yeah, 704 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 1: who is the one that instigates? I think it's both ways. 705 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 1: I think it's both ways. But and I think but 706 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: I think Bill has a certain um idea of what 707 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 1: value is for a player. Yeah, I think Bill definitely 708 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 1: And unless you're unless you're like really elite. Yeah, he 709 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: doesn't like play paying the big bucks. Now, he will 710 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: overpay for those team guys like the yah you know, 711 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: like the special teams guys like Special Team for the 712 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 1: safety that Andy loved. Yeah, James Sanders generally doesn't want 713 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,439 Speaker 1: to set the market at a position, but he will 714 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: give two more million to a guy in the middle, Yeah, 715 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: than anybody else would even think of a good example. Yeah, 716 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: Kendrick Morn was like blown away by the contract that 717 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,239 Speaker 1: he was given, and he came out and said, like Hey, 718 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 1: I saw him in New England because like, yeah, they 719 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: threw all this money out. I think Bill is really 720 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: aware that everybody in the locker room is watching everybody else. 721 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: They know what everybody else is may king, and I 722 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 1: think he's very aware of that, and he, you know, 723 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,280 Speaker 1: plays that game where I can't pay this guy because 724 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 1: it'll affect my locker room. I want to reward this 725 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 1: guy because it'll show other guys that if you do 726 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,320 Speaker 1: a B and C, you'll you know, you'll be rewarded. 727 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of that going on, not 728 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 1: just here, but in a lot of locker rooms night. 729 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:25,879 Speaker 1: So let's hear it from Deduce. Yeah, what's up, Mike, Mike, 730 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 1: Paul is ready for you now, good start. Are you 731 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:32,919 Speaker 1: on the h Oh?

So we're we're getting ready to get set 735 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 1: up as some of the Bills guys are going to 736 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,279 Speaker 1: be speaking at one o'clock, so we headed down and 737 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,839 Speaker 1: listening to them.

Addison from 812 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 1: Fresner writes in general offseason nonsense, I wanted to lead 813 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: off by saying that Paul's appearances on the Sunday Morning 814 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:49,760 Speaker 1: Football Show were appointment listening. I have some two weeks 815 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: in a row. Has some advice for you on that 816 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,239 Speaker 1: show to talk? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, you need to talk 817 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 1: because you can't let him just go and ramble. That's tough. Yeah, 818 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 1: you gotta talk from Paul. Take the lead. That was 819 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 1: a little hungover this week? Is that right? Yeah, it's 820 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 1: a little bit. That's that's my one piece of advice 821 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 1: for that show. I was curious about your guys take 822 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 1: on the idea of taking the red pen to something. 823 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: I think it is crazy that Arians felt compelled to 824 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,279 Speaker 1: come out and defend himself by saying he didn't use 825 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: a red pen specifically. My questions are, does someone using 826 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,319 Speaker 1: a red pen on your work bug you and you 827 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:29,279 Speaker 1: even understand why it bugs people? No, you're I think 828 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:34,439 Speaker 1: you're you're talking about the actual pen as if that's 829 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:39,400 Speaker 1: the problem. But the thing is, it would bug me 830 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,239 Speaker 1: if Fred said to me, Paul, I want you to 831 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 1: write a five thousand word feature on Robert Craft and 832 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 1: just post it. And then I wrote the five thousand 833 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:52,240 Speaker 1: word feature on Robert Kraft and I had carte blanche 834 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 1: because that's what you told me to do. And then 835 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 1: in turn, you said, oh no, before you post that, 836 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 1: let me see it, and he just disapart, yeah, you know, 837 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:02,799 Speaker 1: and made all kinds of changes. I would be a 838 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 1: little miffed now if he has said to me, Paul, 839 00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 1: I want you to do a five thousand word feature 840 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 1: on Robert Kraft. When you get it start putting it together. 841 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: When you get it, you know, come and see me. 842 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 1: We'll go over it, and then we'll post it. He 843 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 1: could eviscerate the whole thing with a red pen and 844 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have any problem with it at all, right, 845 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 1: because he's up front, he's telling me what he is expecting. 846 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 1: So I don't know if Bruce arians told Byron Leftwich 847 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 1: and Tom Brady listen, I'm on the shelf. You guys 848 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: got to come up with the game plan this week. 849 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 1: It's all you. And then all of a sudden they 850 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:33,880 Speaker 1: come up with the game plan and he just completely 851 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 1: changes it. All that would bother me. Yeah, But if 852 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,799 Speaker 1: it's the head coach, well within his rights to make 853 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 1: adjustments to a game plan, I think. And he just said, 854 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: you know, you guys get started on that. I can't. 855 00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,720 Speaker 1: I can't be there, and then we'll go over it. Yeah, 856 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 1: I got no issues with that. But I also think 857 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:53,759 Speaker 1: it's a general rule. Like in having talk and talk 858 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 1: to writers sports writers throughout the years, they rarely like 859 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:05,319 Speaker 1: their editors. No, copy editors in general are really underappreciated people. Yeah, 860 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,840 Speaker 1: they get a lot of heat. I didn't write the headline. 861 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 1: I didn't change that I didn't write that. Why is 862 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 1: he so heavy handed that there's a lot of you know, 863 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 1: it's like writers always complain about their editor poop poop 864 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 1: goes downhill. Yeah, that's in a newspaper office. It goes 865 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 1: downhill to the copy editors. And it's I think, I 866 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 1: think in those guys are invaluable. They don't get the 867 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: dude and I don't And I think in today's world 868 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 1: they aren't enough editing. There isn't enough editing going on online. 869 00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 1: It's it's so easy to just publish, right that the 870 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:40,399 Speaker 1: kind of the editor the editing process as kind of well. 871 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 1: And there's also the pushed out the desire on the 872 00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:45,799 Speaker 1: part of these outlets to get things up in such 873 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:49,320 Speaker 1: a hurry, right that they even forego the editing editing, 874 00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,319 Speaker 1: and they're so bootstrap they don't want to pay. And 875 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:54,360 Speaker 1: I know people like look at editing and proofreading is 876 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 1: the same thing, and that it's not not like to 877 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 1: Fred's point, there's a lot of typos that find their 878 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 1: way onto a website. It happens everywhere because there's not 879 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 1: a lot of eyes reading things before they go up. 880 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:09,800 Speaker 1: But editors, a good copy editor will find a better 881 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 1: way to write something and say something. He works in 882 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 1: conjunction with the writer and it makes the writer better, 883 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 1: right or not, not even just that that's true, but 884 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 1: also like he'll look and say, um, this is this 885 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 1: is a factual error in attribution of things like that too. Well, 886 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 1: when it's like fact checkers, yeah, fact checkers, Like when 887 00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 1: you're writing hard news, Yes, for like the New York 888 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 1: Times or the Wall Street Journal, you have to have 889 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:40,360 Speaker 1: fact checkers because you can get sued, right, you know, yep, um. 890 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:42,879 Speaker 1: But I think that that's kind of so. I think 891 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,240 Speaker 1: it's that it's a hard one there with the arians 892 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:47,879 Speaker 1: because you don't know exactly what the parameters were going in. 893 00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,239 Speaker 1: But it's not necessarily being upset that someone took a 894 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:55,919 Speaker 1: red pen to your your work. Some people that said, 895 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 1: I'm sure there are a lot of writers who are 896 00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:05,240 Speaker 1: very thin skin, Yeah, very pretend active. They're all Stillman 897 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,480 Speaker 1: in the Bay Area wanted to start a discussion on 898 00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 1: an under the radar topic. That topic is backup quarterback. 899 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,120 Speaker 1: I think we took it for granted. Brady's durability throughout 900 00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: his career. Other than the two thousand and eight ACL injury, 901 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 1: he never missed a game due to injury. With Hoyer 902 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 1: entering as a free agent, and whatever the deal is 903 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 1: with Stidham, I'm concerned with who will be behind Jones. 904 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:30,720 Speaker 1: This concerns me both from a development and potential injury standpoint. Developmentally, 905 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,880 Speaker 1: Jones will have a new offensive coordinator slash quarterback coach, 906 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 1: whatever the title is, would judge? I think having a 907 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 1: veteran presence could help Jones in his sophomore season. What 908 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,800 Speaker 1: are your thoughts and where do you think the Patriots 909 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,840 Speaker 1: will go for a backup? Do they resign Hoyer? They could? 910 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,440 Speaker 1: I actually just posted if you want to look at 911 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:56,040 Speaker 1: Patriots dot com, we are doing our free agent forecast 912 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 1: position by position previews, and today the quarterback position just 913 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 1: went up. So apropos to your email if you want 914 00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,400 Speaker 1: to go up there and look. I did a little 915 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 1: roundup of all the quarterbacks who are available and who 916 00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:09,919 Speaker 1: they might be interested in. I think the emailer makes 917 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 1: a really good point too, Not so much for if 918 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 1: something happens to Matt Joe. Like I think most teams 919 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,319 Speaker 1: are in trouble if their starting quarterback goes down for 920 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:21,960 Speaker 1: any length of time. You know, I think you can 921 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 1: still find a way to get by and win some games, 922 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 1: but you're probably no longer a threat if that's the case. 923 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:30,360 Speaker 1: But the more important thing I think is what the 924 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:34,719 Speaker 1: emailer touched on there. And given all of the uncertainty 925 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:39,040 Speaker 1: with the coaching staff, retaining a guy like Horrier might 926 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 1: be even more important this year for mac Jones than 927 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:45,759 Speaker 1: it would if McDaniels was still here. Do you guys agree, Like, 928 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,960 Speaker 1: how many different things from last year you're going to 929 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 1: take away from them in one year? Like I had, 930 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 1: I had this offensive coordinator that I had a great 931 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 1: relationship with, and I had these other offensive coaches that 932 00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:59,279 Speaker 1: helped along the way. I had this veteran quarterback who 933 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 1: knew the system like the backup his hand, and he 934 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:06,440 Speaker 1: really guided me throughout the year. Now they're all gone, Like, 935 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:08,640 Speaker 1: I don't think that would be ideal. I think there's 936 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:10,319 Speaker 1: a chance that Horrier could be Well, let me ask 937 00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:14,200 Speaker 1: you a question. This is a is a backup quarterback 938 00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,759 Speaker 1: more important on a team that has an elite quarterback 939 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 1: like a Brady or an Aaron Rodgers or a team 940 00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 1: that's a playoff contender where the quarterback is more middle 941 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 1: of the road like a mac Jones, in which case 942 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: is the backup quarterback more important, and I think in 943 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 1: the current one I do too, Yeah, because I think 944 00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:37,759 Speaker 1: because your offense isn't as dependent as the quarter on 945 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 1: the quarterback as the elite one. If you lose Rogers 946 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,520 Speaker 1: or you're not replacing it, right, you're not replacing Brady right, 947 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:47,239 Speaker 1: he goes down. But if you lose Jones, an adequate 948 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:51,400 Speaker 1: backup quarterback can still keep your water. You can closer 949 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: replicate quarterback if you have someone competent. Right now, I'm 950 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:58,520 Speaker 1: probably you think Jones the backup quarterball, No, but I 951 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:01,400 Speaker 1: think Horrier would have gone ten and seven last year. Yeah. 952 00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 1: Don't you say when you say lose, you mean for 953 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:08,879 Speaker 1: the year. Yeah, like period. Yeah, I agree with Fred. 954 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:12,239 Speaker 1: I think friends, I think friend's onto something. I just 955 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 1: want to help out. Dave here, he's from Lancaster, California, says, 956 00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 1: years ago in the show, there was a conversation you 957 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 1: had about washing machines and how you had to buy 958 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:22,280 Speaker 1: a new one. I need your help. I can't remember 959 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 1: what brand you said was the best, and do you 960 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 1: still stand by that? My Samsung just broke. It broke 961 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 1: just a couple of months after the warranty being over 962 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:33,840 Speaker 1: this to happen with everything. PS do not buy Samsung. 963 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 1: I hear there are a lot about their home appliances. 964 00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:39,279 Speaker 1: I agree. Uh, Speed Queen is where you want to 965 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 1: go now. I remember this now that you know the 966 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 1: problem with Speed Queen is you don't get all the 967 00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:46,080 Speaker 1: bells and whistles. It's not like Samsung or LG where 968 00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:48,279 Speaker 1: you get this and that and the other. Steam clean. 969 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 1: But if you if you want just America, if you 970 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 1: want at years, if you want an American made washer 971 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:59,959 Speaker 1: with a steel drum, that's just gonna last.

Christian 1027 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 1: from la Is on the A Sick and hot Line. 1028 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 1: What's up? Christian? Hey, you guys. You know here we 1029 00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:11,640 Speaker 1: are in the off season and pondering all the things 1030 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 1: that we need to do administratively. I know that the uh, 1031 00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 1: the guilt challenges that are coming up, but um, you 1032 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:27,880 Speaker 1: know what the club again? What the combine? Combine? Are 1033 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:33,120 Speaker 1: you in a machine shop? What do you airport? Exactly? 1034 00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 1: I was in for with the you know, the blue bottom. However, 1035 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 1: I was wondering which one of the guilts that do 1036 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 1: you guys think if they didn't impad That translates to 1037 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:47,720 Speaker 1: how the athlete would perform on the field. For example, 1038 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 1: they be doing like the love throws. The guys can 1039 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:54,720 Speaker 1: easily catch it over the head. But when you're wearing 1040 00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:58,320 Speaker 1: shoulder pads, your catch radius changed it, right, Well, I 1041 00:55:58,400 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 1: mean back in the day they used to wear the 1042 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 1: big pads. That doesn't really affect. Yeah. To me, it's 1043 00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:08,279 Speaker 1: all about contact, Like it's not necessarily how they're draft. Yeah. Yeah, 1044 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 1: anybody can come across the middle knowing there's no one 1045 00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 1: there to knock the lights out and make the catch. 1046 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:16,279 Speaker 1: But yes, you have the toughness to do that. No 1047 00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 1: one's going to get hit. I mean, if you want 1048 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 1: to look at a New England specific one that people 1049 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:22,879 Speaker 1: write about a lot at this time of year, it's 1050 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:26,400 Speaker 1: the three cone drill for you know, I don't necessarily 1051 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:29,120 Speaker 1: buy it. It's Christian. That's a big Patriots thing. You're 1052 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,279 Speaker 1: absolutely right, know they talk about that every year with 1053 00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: especially with receivers. Who are you know, in the in 1054 00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:40,440 Speaker 1: the slot type category interior? Can I address that for 1055 00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:43,239 Speaker 1: a second, yes, what what position would you say the 1056 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:47,040 Speaker 1: Patriots have had the most difficult time trying to identify 1057 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:51,000 Speaker 1: in the draft wide receiver? Well, we would say there's 1058 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: two cornide receivers, one in corners together. Yep. Maybe we 1059 00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 1: should stop looking at three cone drills so much. Yeah, 1060 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 1: well yeah, I mean if maybe we should look at 1061 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:03,920 Speaker 1: that and something else too, playmaking ability? Yeah, what do 1062 00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 1: you think game tape? Yeah, I don't know. It's they 1063 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,120 Speaker 1: have had trouble, you know, particularly in the second round. 1064 00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 1: But then you look at guys like Cyrus Jones, he 1065 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 1: was a first round pick, and they blew that he 1066 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 1: was the second round to the second he was the 1067 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 1: second round. Yeah no, But like, the wide receiver draft 1068 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,280 Speaker 1: has been really, really tough for the Patriots, you know, 1069 00:57:29,360 --> 00:57:32,480 Speaker 1: aside from Dion Branch one hundred years ago, they really 1070 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 1: haven't identified a wide receiver in the draft. And yes, 1071 00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:37,120 Speaker 1: I'm not counting Julian Edelman because they didn't identify him 1072 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:39,040 Speaker 1: as a wide receiver. He's he was. They made him. 1073 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:43,080 Speaker 1: He was a lottery picky. They got lucky. No, but 1074 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:44,840 Speaker 1: I'm not even saying they got lucky. I give them 1075 00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 1: a lot of credit for developing him, but they didn't 1076 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 1: do it as a wide receiver. They didn't know what 1077 00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:52,800 Speaker 1: he was. Like Deon Branch, wide receiver they identified and 1078 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 1: he hit that, you know. You know, aside from Malcolm Mitchell, 1079 00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:59,600 Speaker 1: whose career was obviously cut short for injuries, they really 1080 00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 1: didn't do that with anybody else. Yeah. Yeah, It's it's 1081 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 1: unfortunate that Mitchell had to have such an injury history 1082 00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 1: because he looked like he could have been something. But 1083 00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 1: at the same time, he probably would never have been 1084 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 1: a Patriot if he hadn't been injured. Right, He wouldn't 1085 00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 1: he wouldn't have been available when the Patriots took Yeah. Yeah, 1086 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:20,920 Speaker 1: so there's a lot of stuff, a lot of a 1087 00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:26,560 Speaker 1: lot of construction cornerback and and um wide receiver. Yeah, 1088 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 1: and like it's a very simplistic thing, but it just 1089 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,320 Speaker 1: sort of popped into my head like that is because 1090 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 1: Eric is right. Every year everybody goes to the combine 1091 00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 1: testing and they look at the three cone drills and 1092 00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:40,840 Speaker 1: they say, this guy's a patriot, This guy's a patriot, 1093 00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 1: this guy's a patriot. Well, maybe they should stop doing that. Yeah, 1094 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,520 Speaker 1: they it's almost like they have they have better luck 1095 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 1: developing guys that are either low round or undrafted guys 1096 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:53,040 Speaker 1: in the secondary than they do drafting it. Oh, the secondary, 1097 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:57,640 Speaker 1: they've had great lucky undrafted guys. Yeah, Randall Gay and 1098 00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 1: Malcolm Butler and Jonathan John And you wonder why why 1099 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:03,240 Speaker 1: is that? You know? Why is it? Is the guy 1100 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:06,120 Speaker 1: hungrier and more coachable and willing to do what It's 1101 00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:08,560 Speaker 1: a great question. That's a story. Yeah, that's a story 1102 00:59:08,600 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 1: file to file that one. H Why have they had 1103 00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 1: so much success with undrafted cornerbacks? Yeah, as opposed to 1104 00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:18,600 Speaker 1: as opposed to the ones they draft. Uh, little Game three, Bill, 1105 00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:24,920 Speaker 1: any commonality between the undrafted cornerbacks that you've had success 1106 00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:29,160 Speaker 1: with you you'd have to go outside of him for 1107 00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:33,320 Speaker 1: that answer. Yeah, Like maybe a Scott Pioli might give 1108 00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:35,760 Speaker 1: you some insight on that one. That won't be something 1109 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 1: I can do. Mike Lombardi might give you some insight there. 1110 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 1: I don't remind me, um no, because you'll just say 1111 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:46,600 Speaker 1: because Bill develops him, That's what Mike Lombardi will tell 1112 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 1: But why can't you do the same for a drafted guy? Exactly? 1113 00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,080 Speaker 1: But that's what Mike Lombardi would tell you. It's all Bill, 1114 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 1: it has nothing to do with Jaz Jackson. Then then 1115 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:57,120 Speaker 1: it's all Billy, you know, Like, but he doesn't recognize 1116 00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 1: it that Paul's points go to somebody who will give 1117 00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 1: you an answer like here only might give you a 1118 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,920 Speaker 1: semblance of an answer. Yeah, but I also would like 1119 01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,760 Speaker 1: to get Bill's perspective on that, sure, knowing that I 1120 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:11,120 Speaker 1: would probably get well because in one way he's going 1121 01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:14,920 Speaker 1: to be guarded because then it shows a failure with 1122 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 1: the draft that guys, you know, so he's going to 1123 01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:19,240 Speaker 1: be guarded and also doesn't want to give away any 1124 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:22,160 Speaker 1: secrets on how they developed right either. Do you want 1125 01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:24,720 Speaker 1: me to tell you how you got the true success 1126 01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:29,360 Speaker 1: with undrafted corners? Very simple? Who am I game? Three clues? 1127 01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:31,960 Speaker 1: You know it's only three of us? Are those only 1128 01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:34,520 Speaker 1: two of you? So? Uh? First one, I played my 1129 01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 1: college ball at the University of Illinois, where my last 1130 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 1: game played was the Liberty Bowl Unversity ill and I 1131 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 1: I was drafted in the first round, where three Hall 1132 01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:47,040 Speaker 1: of Fame players were drafted at the same position with 1133 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:52,280 Speaker 1: me in the first round. Yes, oh, I figured, come on, 1134 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:54,720 Speaker 1: well I was. I'm I was thinking more recent Yeah, 1135 01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 1: I was thinking modern era. The first thing I thought 1136 01:00:56,880 --> 01:00:59,720 Speaker 1: of was Eugene Wilson until he said first round. Second one, 1137 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 1: I played my college ball at Duke and Georgia Ben Watson, 1138 01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 1: Ben Watson, Ben Watson. And the final one I played 1139 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:13,320 Speaker 1: at Brown University. As I just realized how stupid that was. 1140 01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 1: I played at Brown University as a defensive lineman. Eric Rolling, 1141 01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:24,600 Speaker 1: Good job, Eric, thank you, thank you. Paul. I pride 1142 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:27,320 Speaker 1: myself in those games, and I went winless. That was 1143 01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:31,920 Speaker 1: a good job. Yeah, he's not even He actually had 1144 01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:35,840 Speaker 1: not even given you an actual You dominated. I appreciate dominate. 1145 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:40,800 Speaker 1: You dominated I'm not one to be dominated. Sam from 1146 01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:43,240 Speaker 1: Kentucky rights in he says, I got one percent milk 1147 01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 1: the other day and thought of you guys, Red purple right, 1148 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:51,680 Speaker 1: it's not red. Regarding the draft, it seems like there's 1149 01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 1: a lot of talk of drafting a wide receiver with 1150 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:56,840 Speaker 1: our first pick. I think that'd be great, but based 1151 01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:59,320 Speaker 1: on how slow the defense looked during the tail end 1152 01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:01,520 Speaker 1: of the season, my vote would be to pick up 1153 01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:05,000 Speaker 1: a cornerback or someone on the defense that's fast and 1154 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:08,280 Speaker 1: can make plays. Our wide receivering corps isn't amazing, but 1155 01:02:08,440 --> 01:02:10,360 Speaker 1: I think they're good enough to get the job done. 1156 01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:13,200 Speaker 1: I think the defense has more holes to fill. If 1157 01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 1: it was up to you, who would you pick? Or 1158 01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:18,760 Speaker 1: would you pick a wide receiver or a cornerback slash 1159 01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:21,720 Speaker 1: other defensive guy? And if you had to say one 1160 01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 1: or the other, what do you think Bill will do 1161 01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:27,120 Speaker 1: for the first round? Yeah, defense, and I would go 1162 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:31,240 Speaker 1: corner cornerback that would be my number one pick, but 1163 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,920 Speaker 1: or or an offensive tackle. I would not want to 1164 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 1: take a wide receiver in the first round. I do 1165 01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:41,800 Speaker 1: believe that it's a major, major need. I don't believe 1166 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 1: what they have is good enough. I don't agree with 1167 01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 1: that part of it. I just don't want to take 1168 01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:47,000 Speaker 1: a wide receiver in the first round because I think 1169 01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:51,400 Speaker 1: they have other needs to fill. Ye, let's get back 1170 01:02:51,440 --> 01:02:56,320 Speaker 1: to the phones. Rashad's in Baltimore. What's up, Rashad? Hey, 1171 01:02:56,440 --> 01:03:01,840 Speaker 1: what's up? What's up? Hey? Um? I guess list the name. Well, 1172 01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 1: y'all just talked about the wide receiver. I really want 1173 01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:07,600 Speaker 1: the Patriots to draft the wide receiver. And I saw 1174 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,440 Speaker 1: they had a report. I guess the Patriots meeting with 1175 01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:16,760 Speaker 1: the three wide receivers the day Bert to Williamson and um, okay, 1176 01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 1: I want I want to live, I want to live. 1177 01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:22,760 Speaker 1: I don't, I don't. I don't really want Berts. I 1178 01:03:22,920 --> 01:03:25,560 Speaker 1: was looking at Drake London. He kind of reminds me 1179 01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 1: of like what Nakill Harry probably would be if he 1180 01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:32,600 Speaker 1: got here. You just just Drake London is much more 1181 01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:37,720 Speaker 1: athletic than to kill Harry Drake. Drake London is a 1182 01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:42,720 Speaker 1: really good athlete. Yeah. So I mean, I'm with you though, 1183 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:45,200 Speaker 1: But I'd be okay if they drafted a wide receiver 1184 01:03:45,280 --> 01:03:47,880 Speaker 1: in the second round because there's a lot of them. Yeah, 1185 01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:50,439 Speaker 1: they just got to get the right one. That's all, yeah, 1186 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 1: you know, and that's been difficult for them, yeah, over 1187 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:56,920 Speaker 1: the years. Um. One thing I would caution you though, too, Rashad, 1188 01:03:57,400 --> 01:04:01,080 Speaker 1: When you read about players meeting with teams at the Combine, 1189 01:04:02,040 --> 01:04:04,480 Speaker 1: pretty much every player at the Combine meets with almost 1190 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:07,560 Speaker 1: every team throughout the week at some point, So try 1191 01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:13,200 Speaker 1: try not to fall into the trap. I I understand, 1192 01:04:13,320 --> 01:04:15,280 Speaker 1: and you know that at this time of year, people 1193 01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:17,880 Speaker 1: are desperate for any sort of news, But I just 1194 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,560 Speaker 1: for people who aren't maybe as clued into that. A 1195 01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:25,120 Speaker 1: lot of times teams meet with a player specifically because 1196 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:27,320 Speaker 1: they don't know that much about him or her. Um, 1197 01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:33,120 Speaker 1: they don't know about his personal side more than anything. 1198 01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:35,040 Speaker 1: Like they have plenty of game tape on these guys, 1199 01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 1: but they want to get to know some things about 1200 01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:39,080 Speaker 1: him to see if he'd be a fit for their system. 1201 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:44,440 Speaker 1: They're kind of uh, you know, organizational structure, yeah, their culture. Um, 1202 01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:47,240 Speaker 1: so it's not it's it's a lot of times it's 1203 01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:49,680 Speaker 1: an information gathering thing more than it is like we 1204 01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:51,960 Speaker 1: definitely want this guy, you know. I mean it could 1205 01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:55,640 Speaker 1: could be the case. But when you look at if 1206 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 1: you go back and look at a lot of the 1207 01:04:57,680 --> 01:05:01,280 Speaker 1: draft picks over the last ten fift teen years. A 1208 01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:03,960 Speaker 1: lot of them in some cases didn't even meet with 1209 01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:06,880 Speaker 1: the Patriots at the combine or at at all during 1210 01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:08,920 Speaker 1: the pre draft process. So it's a little bit of 1211 01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:12,680 Speaker 1: a yeah, it's a little bit of a specious argument 1212 01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:16,120 Speaker 1: to say, yeah, yeah, yeah, not necessarily on purpose to 1213 01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:18,720 Speaker 1: be smoking mirrors, but it's not necessarily an indication that 1214 01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:21,120 Speaker 1: this team loves this play. But I guarantee you the 1215 01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 1: Patriots are interested in every you know, like they want 1216 01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:25,960 Speaker 1: to know about everybody. They're like if if there's a 1217 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:28,160 Speaker 1: guy raided in the top ten in any position, the 1218 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:31,000 Speaker 1: Patriots are doing their work on them, you know. So 1219 01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:35,720 Speaker 1: certainly on defense, I would hope, yeah, And I mean 1220 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:38,040 Speaker 1: I would like the wide received. I mean I would 1221 01:05:38,080 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 1: like a defensive player. But the way I'm thinking, like 1222 01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:43,320 Speaker 1: the draft board would shake up, it would be probably 1223 01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 1: like value, so probably wouldn't get like maybe a good 1224 01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 1: corner at that twenty one spot. Maybe it might be 1225 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:53,400 Speaker 1: some wide receivers that dropped down and they might be 1226 01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:56,439 Speaker 1: at twenty one. But yeah, I'm all for a defensive player. 1227 01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:59,880 Speaker 1: I'm all for anybody who can bring some speed, athleticisms, 1228 01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,240 Speaker 1: any kind of umph into the defense. Yeah, it stinks 1229 01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:05,480 Speaker 1: this hear that there aren't quarterbacks that are gonna push 1230 01:06:05,560 --> 01:06:09,880 Speaker 1: these guys down. You know, yes, I agree, Freddy. Yeah, 1231 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:13,040 Speaker 1: all right, thanks for shot. And your chances of trading 1232 01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:16,040 Speaker 1: up are a lot smaller than they normally would be too, 1233 01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:19,280 Speaker 1: because of the dearth of draft picks that the Patriots have. 1234 01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:21,160 Speaker 1: They only have six. Right, if you're gonna trade up, 1235 01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:23,640 Speaker 1: you're gonna be investing in either future picks or a 1236 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:25,920 Speaker 1: player and a pick, and they probably are going to 1237 01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:29,320 Speaker 1: be doing that. Eldred is here on the phone to 1238 01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:33,760 Speaker 1: yell about wide receivers. I'm sure, what's up, Eldred. Hey, 1239 01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:37,640 Speaker 1: So that looks how y'all doing it good? Hey? You right? Fred? 1240 01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:41,240 Speaker 1: I love all of y'all gone wide receiver first, and 1241 01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:43,680 Speaker 1: I don't agree with the sucking day wide receivers that 1242 01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 1: left doctors in their crew but alive and uh William 1243 01:06:49,120 --> 01:06:53,520 Speaker 1: Wilson and the other guy they're gonna be around twenty one. 1244 01:06:55,080 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 1: Stanley gonna be gone, the other corner gonna be gone, 1245 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:00,280 Speaker 1: and the linebacker that we're like for Georgia. See, I 1246 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:03,200 Speaker 1: think Stanley could go anywhere. I think Stinley is a 1247 01:07:03,240 --> 01:07:06,560 Speaker 1: wild card. And I saw Daniel Jeremiah on his conference 1248 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:09,560 Speaker 1: call and Mike Mike Desso wrote up a piece on that. 1249 01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:13,000 Speaker 1: I think Stanley could go anywhere. He could be available anywhere. Yeah, 1250 01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:16,600 Speaker 1: he's ranked him at fifteen. Yeah he I mean he 1251 01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:18,520 Speaker 1: could be in. He could go in the top ten, 1252 01:07:18,600 --> 01:07:20,200 Speaker 1: and he could go in the second round. I think 1253 01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:23,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot of questions about him because of the 1254 01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 1: last two years and all the injuries he had. He 1255 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:29,080 Speaker 1: didn't play much. Yeah, but I'm like the previous call, 1256 01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,320 Speaker 1: I like a lave always did when he was in Ohio. 1257 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:35,080 Speaker 1: I like I like a lot. I agree, I love Ala. Yeah, 1258 01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:37,760 Speaker 1: so I'm hoping if he's there because Corner cups some 1259 01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 1: other draft he did about twenty two or twenty three, 1260 01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:44,360 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, so right there at twenty one and uh, Fred, 1261 01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:47,800 Speaker 1: get what you said earlier. Yeah, you need to go 1262 01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:50,680 Speaker 1: with the corner the receivers that have production instead of 1263 01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:52,440 Speaker 1: take a chance when the second one has been the 1264 01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 1: second two years, when you know the ACC and SEC 1265 01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:01,520 Speaker 1: champion competition like NFL just about so those guy one good. 1266 01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:03,320 Speaker 1: He didn't do that with a Harry you know, the 1267 01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 1: couple of years ago. If your no, but why can't 1268 01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:08,080 Speaker 1: you get one of those guys in the second and 1269 01:08:08,200 --> 01:08:12,960 Speaker 1: third round that produced second third round, right, like Terry 1270 01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:16,719 Speaker 1: MC like Terry McLaurin from Ohio State, like a major program, 1271 01:08:17,160 --> 01:08:20,360 Speaker 1: major production, and he made a major impact immediately. He 1272 01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:23,080 Speaker 1: wasn't your first round round. But but but they skipped 1273 01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:25,639 Speaker 1: though the week. He could have went in the first round. 1274 01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:29,160 Speaker 1: So could a J. Brown. No, but some stuff behind. 1275 01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:32,400 Speaker 1: I understand that guys could go in the first round. 1276 01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 1: But I'm saying there will be really good wide receivers 1277 01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:39,720 Speaker 1: taken in the second and third round. Find one. I 1278 01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:42,880 Speaker 1: still go to with one with two two facts alive, 1279 01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:46,760 Speaker 1: Wilson or even Williams. All right, so what if? What if? 1280 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:48,599 Speaker 1: What if you could get What if the lave ends 1281 01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:52,880 Speaker 1: up going in the second round, then you grab him? 1282 01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 1: What if Williams go? I mean, what what if Jameson 1283 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 1: Williams goes. You know, he's coming off a town acl 1284 01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:59,760 Speaker 1: Maybe he's available in the second round, but I don't know, 1285 01:08:59,840 --> 01:09:01,880 Speaker 1: Maybe they go in the top ten. I mean, Eldri, 1286 01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:04,840 Speaker 1: are you saying, don't risk it take a receiver in 1287 01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:07,600 Speaker 1: the first round. Don't risk it, don't wait. I just 1288 01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:09,479 Speaker 1: think that you can get the tenth receiver in the 1289 01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:11,120 Speaker 1: third round, and he might be as good as the 1290 01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:14,679 Speaker 1: second receiver that goes in the first, whereas the tenth 1291 01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:16,559 Speaker 1: cornerback is not going to be as good as the first. 1292 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:19,639 Speaker 1: There's more depth at receiver, like receiver is a deep 1293 01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:23,800 Speaker 1: position every year in the draft. Ye affected, all the 1294 01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:25,360 Speaker 1: pends on what you're looking for. It too, though, But 1295 01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:27,680 Speaker 1: those guys on the outside, whatever, they're going in the 1296 01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:31,479 Speaker 1: first if Williams, if Williams do, let's say william be hurt, 1297 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:35,680 Speaker 1: acl I guarantee to be a team to take take 1298 01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:37,599 Speaker 1: them in the first round, and they'll wait, and I'm 1299 01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:40,960 Speaker 1: gonna guarantee you this elder will make a bet. Okay, Now, 1300 01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:43,040 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a long turn. This is gonna 1301 01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:45,120 Speaker 1: be a long range bet because we won't be able 1302 01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 1: to find out No, seriously, we won't be able to 1303 01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:50,400 Speaker 1: know the results of this this bet for at least 1304 01:09:50,439 --> 01:09:53,160 Speaker 1: two years. But I'm gonna bet you that there will 1305 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:56,360 Speaker 1: be a wide receiver selected in round two or three 1306 01:09:57,160 --> 01:09:59,720 Speaker 1: who is better than at least one wide receiver who 1307 01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:04,080 Speaker 1: was elected in around one, much like Terry McLaurin was 1308 01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:06,439 Speaker 1: better than to kill Harry. Yeah, I'm gonna bet you 1309 01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:09,439 Speaker 1: that that will happen this year, Brown and anybody else 1310 01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:13,200 Speaker 1: that were decay and anybody else. Yep, you know. So 1311 01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna bet you that there will be a second 1312 01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:18,000 Speaker 1: There will be a Day two receiver better than a 1313 01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:21,519 Speaker 1: Day one receiver in this draft. Okay, Now it's a 1314 01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:24,519 Speaker 1: bad bet because we have to wait. Yeah, we have 1315 01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:28,360 Speaker 1: to wait two years to find that out. Ye okay, 1316 01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:31,639 Speaker 1: it minimum Okay, even then, I would never admit I lost. 1317 01:10:31,800 --> 01:10:34,080 Speaker 1: And that's okay. If we picked one that ain't one 1318 01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:35,640 Speaker 1: of those. I'll let you know if you're gonna be 1319 01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:38,000 Speaker 1: a bus round the beat like I did, Harry, No, 1320 01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:40,479 Speaker 1: you did, Eldred, you did?

It's the email address 1509 01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 1: we talked to Deuce earlier. He's on site in Indianapolis 1510 01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:11,160 Speaker 1: and if anything happens, he'll call in. But we're monitoring 1511 01:22:11,240 --> 01:22:14,000 Speaker 1: it on the NFL network as well, and doesn't look 1512 01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:16,639 Speaker 1: like much is going on. People are starting to trickle in. Yeah, 1513 01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:18,880 Speaker 1: media trying to get a little bit more crowded. We're 1514 01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:26,920 Speaker 1: looking for Duce. Yeah, yeah, so all right, they're talking 1515 01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:31,240 Speaker 1: to the Broncos GM or head of personnel next, Yeah, 1516 01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:36,599 Speaker 1: not the head coach. Who is that? Okay? Was that right? Oh? Yeah, 1517 01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:38,720 Speaker 1: I had to have his name right there. Oh there 1518 01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:42,120 Speaker 1: it is Um, one of the candidates to uh maybe 1519 01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:45,040 Speaker 1: get Aaron Rodgers, right, that would be interesting. But you know, 1520 01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:48,599 Speaker 1: I heard you on the radio, Paul Um. I think 1521 01:22:48,680 --> 01:22:52,479 Speaker 1: everyone's just kind of assuming like Rogers and Wilson are 1522 01:22:52,520 --> 01:22:55,080 Speaker 1: going to leave their teams. I think there's as much 1523 01:22:55,160 --> 01:22:59,160 Speaker 1: chance people are saying. I think people are just kind 1524 01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:01,639 Speaker 1: of thinking that's gonna happen. I think there's as much chance, 1525 01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:04,360 Speaker 1: if not better, that they stay where they are. According 1526 01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:07,320 Speaker 1: to our old friend the rap Sheet, Uh, the Packers 1527 01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:10,639 Speaker 1: and Rodgers are working on the parameters of a deal 1528 01:23:10,720 --> 01:23:12,920 Speaker 1: if he would, if he should decide to stay in 1529 01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:17,200 Speaker 1: Green Bay. Yeah. So, and apparently he stuck around after 1530 01:23:17,400 --> 01:23:20,960 Speaker 1: the playoff loss for a few days and had conversations 1531 01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:23,720 Speaker 1: with the team at that point. Okay, so yeah, Yeah, 1532 01:23:23,720 --> 01:23:26,280 Speaker 1: I think it's not as dire over there as people think. 1533 01:23:26,320 --> 01:23:28,120 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a done deal anyway. It's not 1534 01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:30,680 Speaker 1: a foregone conclusion that he's that he's gone. I think 1535 01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:33,599 Speaker 1: it's I think would have it backwards. I think most 1536 01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:37,400 Speaker 1: people think he's staying. Is that right? Yeah, that's not 1537 01:23:37,520 --> 01:23:40,240 Speaker 1: that I've heard. Oh yeah, everyone's just like, oh, where's 1538 01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:43,680 Speaker 1: he gonna end up? You know. I think there is 1539 01:23:43,720 --> 01:23:46,320 Speaker 1: some intrigue about whether or not he's gonna keep playing. 1540 01:23:47,479 --> 01:23:50,559 Speaker 1: Um and I think there's some other quarterbacks out there. 1541 01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:53,719 Speaker 1: You wrote about this too, Paul, right with the uh Yeah. 1542 01:23:53,880 --> 01:23:56,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that the Packers guys have been 1543 01:23:56,960 --> 01:23:59,160 Speaker 1: on this and saying that they think he's either going 1544 01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:02,559 Speaker 1: to retire will stay there. They don't see the very 1545 01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:05,439 Speaker 1: small percentage of him changing teams. I think that they're 1546 01:24:06,120 --> 01:24:08,600 Speaker 1: wishful thinking. I think there's a legitimate chance that he 1547 01:24:08,640 --> 01:24:10,559 Speaker 1: could leave. I don't think there's much of a chance 1548 01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:13,840 Speaker 1: of Russell Wilson leaving because I haven't heard much about it. 1549 01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:15,920 Speaker 1: But I don't rule that out either. But I think 1550 01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:17,720 Speaker 1: I think both of those guys could go. I think 1551 01:24:17,920 --> 01:24:19,719 Speaker 1: Fred you're right there. I think there was a little 1552 01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:22,920 Speaker 1: bit of momentum at the very end of the playoffs 1553 01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:25,880 Speaker 1: for Rogers to the Packers, especially, I mean Rogers to 1554 01:24:25,960 --> 01:24:30,160 Speaker 1: the Broncos, especially when they hired the Packers, yeah, right 1555 01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:31,760 Speaker 1: as their head coach. And I think there was a 1556 01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:34,200 Speaker 1: lot of talk at that point about that. But I 1557 01:24:34,280 --> 01:24:36,960 Speaker 1: think it seems that the Tide teams to have changed 1558 01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 1: more towards well. When he originally came back last summer 1559 01:24:43,280 --> 01:24:47,639 Speaker 1: he decided to return, everybody reported that they had made 1560 01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:51,160 Speaker 1: an arrangement with Rogers that they would agree to trade 1561 01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:54,840 Speaker 1: him if he still wanted to be traded after the season. 1562 01:24:56,880 --> 01:24:59,479 Speaker 1: The Packers GM Brian, I don't really know how to 1563 01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:04,880 Speaker 1: pronounce his Gudenuss Gudacust has said that he'd never made 1564 01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:09,320 Speaker 1: such a promise to Rogers. That to me is worrisome 1565 01:25:09,400 --> 01:25:13,960 Speaker 1: if you're a Packers fan. Yeah. So now everything looked 1566 01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:17,360 Speaker 1: like it was kind of going good. You know. Rogers 1567 01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 1: said he would you know, he would talk about it. 1568 01:25:19,400 --> 01:25:23,400 Speaker 1: He'd made no brash declarations. Well I'm out now, you know, 1569 01:25:23,479 --> 01:25:25,880 Speaker 1: the season ended. He was disappointed. He said he would 1570 01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:28,120 Speaker 1: take some time, but he would make a decision quickly 1571 01:25:28,200 --> 01:25:30,920 Speaker 1: on his future. There were no indications that he was 1572 01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:34,800 Speaker 1: imminently leaving, And now the Packers are publicly saying, well, 1573 01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:37,040 Speaker 1: we never told him, We never said that, We never 1574 01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:41,280 Speaker 1: said that. Okay, maybe you're right, but why are we Yeah, 1575 01:25:42,320 --> 01:25:44,640 Speaker 1: why are you doing that? Like? Yeah, to me, I 1576 01:25:44,680 --> 01:25:50,479 Speaker 1: could see that being something that that bugged Rogers. Um oh, 1577 01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:54,519 Speaker 1: the phones are stacking up here, um, patriots unfiltered. So 1578 01:25:54,680 --> 01:25:56,920 Speaker 1: let's see what people have to say. We'll start with 1579 01:25:57,160 --> 01:26:00,599 Speaker 1: Andrew in La. What's up? Andrews is stacked? Hey, guys, 1580 01:26:00,640 --> 01:26:03,200 Speaker 1: how's it going. How's your weekend? Good? Good? How about you? 1581 01:26:04,560 --> 01:26:07,639 Speaker 1: Not too bad? I spent some time with some family 1582 01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:09,080 Speaker 1: from out of town, so it was a good one. 1583 01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:14,160 Speaker 1: But hey, um, on Paul's show a couple of weeks ago, 1584 01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:19,479 Speaker 1: I heard a stat that Belgee said, Um, I think 1585 01:26:19,520 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 1: it was I can't remember the source, but they said 1586 01:26:22,760 --> 01:26:26,280 Speaker 1: that the Eagles over the last ten years had spent 1587 01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:28,599 Speaker 1: I think like one hundred and sixty or one hundred 1588 01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:38,120 Speaker 1: and seventy million dollars more than the Patriots and Trap Trap. 1589 01:26:38,320 --> 01:26:41,200 Speaker 1: But yeah, but if we average that out, it's about 1590 01:26:41,560 --> 01:26:45,439 Speaker 1: sixteen seventeen million dollars a year. The Eagles are spending more. 1591 01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:47,639 Speaker 1: And I know that's not always the case, and it's 1592 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:49,800 Speaker 1: you know, it depends on year to year, but that's 1593 01:26:49,840 --> 01:26:52,400 Speaker 1: the price of a really good edge rusher or a 1594 01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:55,560 Speaker 1: really good linebacker or a really good wide receiver. And 1595 01:26:56,520 --> 01:26:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, for someone that says they do what's in 1596 01:26:59,280 --> 01:27:01,839 Speaker 1: the best interest of the football team, like Bill Belichick, 1597 01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:05,000 Speaker 1: that doesn't always line up with the statistics that I'm reading. 1598 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:07,720 Speaker 1: So I was just curious about people that kind of 1599 01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:10,840 Speaker 1: still believe that Belichick is doing what's in the best 1600 01:27:10,920 --> 01:27:12,840 Speaker 1: interests of the football team and he knows what he's doing. 1601 01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:16,200 Speaker 1: How does that kind of line up with you guys? 1602 01:27:18,120 --> 01:27:20,439 Speaker 1: And maybe you, you know, Andrew or Paul because it's 1603 01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:23,720 Speaker 1: his show, can answer this. But why did Felger pick 1604 01:27:23,880 --> 01:27:26,320 Speaker 1: the Eagles? Are they the team that spent the most, 1605 01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:29,680 Speaker 1: the highest they're the highest Okay, Yeah, and they're known 1606 01:27:29,800 --> 01:27:31,439 Speaker 1: for doing that. I mean, I think everyone knows that 1607 01:27:31,479 --> 01:27:36,200 Speaker 1: they're really high role with Okay, so I mean so 1608 01:27:36,640 --> 01:27:38,479 Speaker 1: so the same question you should ask of every other 1609 01:27:38,520 --> 01:27:40,840 Speaker 1: team that hasn't spent as much, right, Okay, So now 1610 01:27:40,880 --> 01:27:44,720 Speaker 1: we're just gonna yes we are, Why don't we just 1611 01:27:45,080 --> 01:27:47,120 Speaker 1: I think what Andrew's trying to get at is do 1612 01:27:47,280 --> 01:27:51,040 Speaker 1: people still have the same faith that what the Patriots, 1613 01:27:51,680 --> 01:27:53,360 Speaker 1: how they go about it is the way to do it. 1614 01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:57,240 Speaker 1: And I would say unequivocally the answer to that is yes, yes, 1615 01:27:57,640 --> 01:28:01,479 Speaker 1: um no, No matter what the Patriots due Andrew, that's 1616 01:28:01,520 --> 01:28:03,080 Speaker 1: the way to do it. And that's the only way 1617 01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:05,720 Speaker 1: to do it, according to a lot and that's not all, 1618 01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:09,360 Speaker 1: not all, but a lot of Patriots fans. And that's 1619 01:28:09,400 --> 01:28:11,679 Speaker 1: why I brought up earlier in the show about Jase Jackson. 1620 01:28:12,040 --> 01:28:14,600 Speaker 1: I want to know what you think now, right, No, 1621 01:28:14,920 --> 01:28:18,120 Speaker 1: that's fair, and I don't want the Patriots to sign 1622 01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:20,560 Speaker 1: this guy to a long term deal. And then you 1623 01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:23,639 Speaker 1: tell me it's a great move, master stroke by Belichick 1624 01:28:24,040 --> 01:28:27,640 Speaker 1: when you actually think before the deal was signed that 1625 01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:30,120 Speaker 1: they should let him walk, right in vice versa, Right, 1626 01:28:30,520 --> 01:28:32,720 Speaker 1: I want to know what happens, what you think beforehand, 1627 01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:37,400 Speaker 1: because I'll tell you right now, Andrew, a vast majority 1628 01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:41,160 Speaker 1: of the vocal Patriots fans who call into shows and 1629 01:28:41,760 --> 01:28:46,080 Speaker 1: right into opine about the Patriots, we'll be on board 1630 01:28:46,160 --> 01:28:48,519 Speaker 1: with whatever Build decides. That's the way it will be. 1631 01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:50,760 Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, it'll be adamant as well. 1632 01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:53,320 Speaker 1: Whatever the whatever the Patriots did, it was the right 1633 01:28:53,400 --> 01:28:56,599 Speaker 1: thing to do. Yeah, yeah, and then you're crucified if 1634 01:28:56,640 --> 01:28:59,160 Speaker 1: you happen to disagree with what Bill Belichick. No, but 1635 01:28:59,200 --> 01:29:01,640 Speaker 1: I think, I think when I think a lot of 1636 01:29:01,720 --> 01:29:05,560 Speaker 1: people are questioning Bill right now about why isn't he 1637 01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:08,360 Speaker 1: naming an offensive coordinea? Why is he doing that? Why 1638 01:29:08,439 --> 01:29:10,760 Speaker 1: isn't he naming a defensive coordina? And I've heard just 1639 01:29:10,800 --> 01:29:12,920 Speaker 1: as many people saying that it makes sense. You keep 1640 01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:15,920 Speaker 1: these these job just titles. You don't need them. They're 1641 01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:18,920 Speaker 1: not important. I know. I've heard many people people are criticizing. 1642 01:29:19,240 --> 01:29:21,759 Speaker 1: I've heard many people defending the people on the radio 1643 01:29:21,920 --> 01:29:27,200 Speaker 1: that the hosts criticize people calling in no, no, no, 1644 01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:29,000 Speaker 1: that's the way to do it. Keep them all in 1645 01:29:29,040 --> 01:29:31,760 Speaker 1: their toe, my god, hungry. No. There's a lot of 1646 01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:35,160 Speaker 1: criticism out there to do more with that. Bill gets 1647 01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:37,200 Speaker 1: all the credit as he succeeds, but then he can 1648 01:29:37,320 --> 01:29:40,760 Speaker 1: blame people that don't have coordinators assigned. You know, if 1649 01:29:41,280 --> 01:29:45,519 Speaker 1: that's a master stroke, he's he's done it well, he's 1650 01:29:45,560 --> 01:29:48,000 Speaker 1: done it well. I mean people, Fred Fred falls right 1651 01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:50,080 Speaker 1: into it. How many times has Fred told you? And 1652 01:29:50,160 --> 01:29:53,120 Speaker 1: he does it with the smallest coaching staff in we 1653 01:29:53,240 --> 01:29:55,920 Speaker 1: have not true, but he says it every day, less coaches. 1654 01:29:56,000 --> 01:29:59,640 Speaker 1: It's true, it's true. But yet when they go when 1655 01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:02,720 Speaker 1: they go seven, when they go seven to nine and 1656 01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:05,240 Speaker 1: don't make the playoffs. One of the reasons that they 1657 01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:07,240 Speaker 1: didn't make the playoffs isn't because he doesn't have enough help, 1658 01:30:07,439 --> 01:30:09,320 Speaker 1: was Cam Newton. It does not because he doesn't have 1659 01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:13,559 Speaker 1: enough help. So you see the master strokes that Belichick 1660 01:30:13,680 --> 01:30:17,240 Speaker 1: has has pulled off. It's a master class in deception. 1661 01:30:17,280 --> 01:30:19,240 Speaker 1: I know people just think he's the greatest ever. I 1662 01:30:19,280 --> 01:30:21,800 Speaker 1: don't know why they do, right, because people like you 1663 01:30:22,080 --> 01:30:25,080 Speaker 1: perpetuate the midst So you don't think he is, but 1664 01:30:25,240 --> 01:30:27,719 Speaker 1: you agree he is. I agree he's a great coach. Yeah, 1665 01:30:28,360 --> 01:30:29,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to tell you that he's the greatest 1666 01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:33,120 Speaker 1: ever or not, but I think he's a great coach. 1667 01:30:33,600 --> 01:30:37,599 Speaker 1: But I, unlike you, will criticize him when he doesn't 1668 01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:39,559 Speaker 1: do it the way that I think he should. That's true. 1669 01:30:39,880 --> 01:30:43,600 Speaker 1: You will just automatically say, well, I thought this beforehand, 1670 01:30:43,640 --> 01:30:45,639 Speaker 1: but Bill didn't do it, so I must he must 1671 01:30:45,720 --> 01:30:48,040 Speaker 1: know something that I know. Yeah, I'll give Fred credit. 1672 01:30:48,080 --> 01:30:50,160 Speaker 1: Fred says I was wrong. Yeah, you know Bill did 1673 01:30:50,240 --> 01:30:53,600 Speaker 1: it that way, so he was right. I listen. I 1674 01:30:53,800 --> 01:30:56,519 Speaker 1: was very vocal when they traded Sony Michelle. I came 1675 01:30:56,640 --> 01:30:59,559 Speaker 1: right out at that time. I didn't wait, he's hanging 1676 01:30:59,600 --> 01:31:04,080 Speaker 1: his head on that one. I didn't wait. There plenty 1677 01:31:04,120 --> 01:31:09,280 Speaker 1: of there's plenty of of examples of me not being 1678 01:31:09,400 --> 01:31:12,080 Speaker 1: in line. But I think for the most part, no 1679 01:31:12,160 --> 01:31:14,719 Speaker 1: one does it. No one does it. No one's perfect. 1680 01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:19,800 Speaker 1: But no one does it better, you know, right, no one? Yeah, 1681 01:31:19,920 --> 01:31:22,479 Speaker 1: but nobody. I don't know what that means, Like, no 1682 01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:27,439 Speaker 1: one does it better, No one's perfect. You know. Should 1683 01:31:27,439 --> 01:31:29,560 Speaker 1: we be questioning about whether he's doing things in the 1684 01:31:29,640 --> 01:31:33,280 Speaker 1: best interests of the team. No, we shouldn't be questioning that. Well, okay, 1685 01:31:33,600 --> 01:31:35,559 Speaker 1: you know he does do things in the best interests 1686 01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:39,200 Speaker 1: of the team. You know, you don't have to agree 1687 01:31:39,280 --> 01:31:42,080 Speaker 1: with every one of them. But but I'm not. I'm not. 1688 01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:44,479 Speaker 1: That's how we get in these problems. We don't question. 1689 01:31:44,560 --> 01:31:47,080 Speaker 1: I'm not going to question his motives like you can 1690 01:31:47,200 --> 01:31:49,840 Speaker 1: question his moves and whether you agree with that. But 1691 01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:54,200 Speaker 1: you know you're you're now saying, well, he's mutinous your question. 1692 01:31:54,400 --> 01:31:57,479 Speaker 1: He questions his motives in Super Bowl fifty two um 1693 01:31:57,600 --> 01:32:04,439 Speaker 1: with with Butler. No you don't know, unabashedly no, No, 1694 01:32:04,920 --> 01:32:07,240 Speaker 1: he wasn't in the right mindset. He was wasn't in 1695 01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:11,559 Speaker 1: the right mindset, Butler. It was crying because he was crying. 1696 01:32:13,200 --> 01:32:17,200 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's Freddie. His mind wasn't right. This 1697 01:32:17,400 --> 01:32:19,360 Speaker 1: is why where we need the cameras, because he's got 1698 01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:21,400 Speaker 1: the smirk on his face. This is why you are 1699 01:32:21,479 --> 01:32:25,439 Speaker 1: the best who's ever done this. That line right there, 1700 01:32:25,560 --> 01:32:29,960 Speaker 1: he was crying. He was crying because he didn't there 1701 01:32:31,280 --> 01:32:33,559 Speaker 1: can't have a guy in they're all emotional. Gotta let 1702 01:32:33,640 --> 01:32:36,800 Speaker 1: Johnson bad EMSI win it for you. Uh, let's go 1703 01:32:36,880 --> 01:32:40,320 Speaker 1: to Sean and Vancouver. What's up, Sean, Paul. I want 1704 01:32:40,360 --> 01:32:43,960 Speaker 1: to clarify Thursday in my email, it's not that pretty 1705 01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:46,760 Speaker 1: much was saying what you you said today. It's it's 1706 01:32:46,800 --> 01:32:51,200 Speaker 1: not that I want the Patriots not to sign Jasey Jackson. 1707 01:32:51,240 --> 01:32:52,600 Speaker 1: I'd love them to do that. I just said, I 1708 01:32:52,600 --> 01:32:54,880 Speaker 1: don't think they will, Like he said, they have too 1709 01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:57,519 Speaker 1: many needs. I just don't. Yeah, I would rather know 1710 01:32:57,760 --> 01:33:00,479 Speaker 1: what you think they should do, other than what you 1711 01:33:00,600 --> 01:33:02,920 Speaker 1: think they will do. Like we can predict it. But 1712 01:33:03,160 --> 01:33:07,040 Speaker 1: like if you think they should, then you should be 1713 01:33:07,160 --> 01:33:10,599 Speaker 1: mad if they don't, well, I'd rather they keep every player. 1714 01:33:10,880 --> 01:33:12,880 Speaker 1: There's never a time I want them to cut a 1715 01:33:12,920 --> 01:33:15,320 Speaker 1: good player. But I don't. You know, it's not my money. 1716 01:33:16,720 --> 01:33:19,320 Speaker 1: It's not gonna be about money. It just it's it won't. 1717 01:33:19,439 --> 01:33:23,519 Speaker 1: But um, I think they won't value the player the 1718 01:33:23,600 --> 01:33:26,599 Speaker 1: way you do. I think it's. Yeah, that's the thing. 1719 01:33:26,840 --> 01:33:28,400 Speaker 1: I think if they thought he was as good as 1720 01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:33,519 Speaker 1: Gilmour was, they sign him. You know, Um yeah, they 1721 01:33:33,600 --> 01:33:37,519 Speaker 1: just because that's the thing. They will play. They will 1722 01:33:37,640 --> 01:33:40,200 Speaker 1: pay a player that they think is worth it. But 1723 01:33:40,479 --> 01:33:43,720 Speaker 1: it's it's tough for them to say. They don't think 1724 01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:45,960 Speaker 1: as many players are worth it as other teams do 1725 01:33:46,200 --> 01:33:49,200 Speaker 1: for some reason. For whatever reason. You know, they're frugal 1726 01:33:49,280 --> 01:33:52,320 Speaker 1: with their money. It's not it's I think they're frugal 1727 01:33:52,400 --> 01:33:56,400 Speaker 1: with their evaluation. They're tougher in their evaluation of players, 1728 01:33:56,439 --> 01:33:58,840 Speaker 1: and maybe some other teams are. I don't think it's 1729 01:33:58,840 --> 01:34:00,880 Speaker 1: a matter of being frugal and it works when you 1730 01:34:00,960 --> 01:34:04,360 Speaker 1: have the best who's ever played, yeah, right, but not 1731 01:34:04,439 --> 01:34:05,920 Speaker 1: so much when you like I don't think it's a 1732 01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:08,400 Speaker 1: matter of being cheat, because that's what you're saying. I 1733 01:34:08,479 --> 01:34:11,000 Speaker 1: think it's I'm not saying they're very tough with how 1734 01:34:11,080 --> 01:34:14,720 Speaker 1: they rate players, and for them to admit, like a 1735 01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:17,800 Speaker 1: guy is worth the money, that's hard. That's harder for 1736 01:34:17,880 --> 01:34:19,640 Speaker 1: them than I think than other teams. But there are 1737 01:34:19,800 --> 01:34:22,479 Speaker 1: but there are teams that are willing to overspend to 1738 01:34:22,600 --> 01:34:25,559 Speaker 1: get a talented player right, and a lot of teams 1739 01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:28,160 Speaker 1: and a lot of those players I think this regime 1740 01:34:28,200 --> 01:34:30,840 Speaker 1: would say he ain't worth it. No, I know, but 1741 01:34:31,120 --> 01:34:33,000 Speaker 1: but but it's not like But the part that you 1742 01:34:33,200 --> 01:34:35,519 Speaker 1: miss is they're wrong a lot when they do that, 1743 01:34:35,640 --> 01:34:38,439 Speaker 1: but they're also right a lot. Well, but there's nobody 1744 01:34:38,479 --> 01:34:41,680 Speaker 1: nothing they just look at one right all the time 1745 01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:43,800 Speaker 1: when they do that, not all the time because they 1746 01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:46,400 Speaker 1: because they won for twenty years time well, having the 1747 01:34:46,439 --> 01:34:49,040 Speaker 1: best player who's ever played, they won for twenty years 1748 01:34:49,280 --> 01:34:51,800 Speaker 1: and that validated they were right about him too. By 1749 01:34:51,840 --> 01:34:55,920 Speaker 1: the way, how how so like they they elevated him 1750 01:34:56,000 --> 01:34:59,439 Speaker 1: right away. Right, they elevated him right away. They wouldn't 1751 01:34:59,479 --> 01:35:02,080 Speaker 1: pay him. Did they let him walk after twenty years? Right? 1752 01:35:02,120 --> 01:35:04,360 Speaker 1: They let him walk because they didn't value him the 1753 01:35:04,400 --> 01:35:08,439 Speaker 1: way other teams did, and other teams won super bowls 1754 01:35:08,479 --> 01:35:12,639 Speaker 1: with him. They did all right with him? Oh, John 1755 01:35:12,720 --> 01:35:15,439 Speaker 1: had not enough? Sean had enough of us? Yeah, they did, 1756 01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:22,559 Speaker 1: all right. Uh. Jeff's in Texas. What's up? Jeff? Hey, guys, 1757 01:35:22,600 --> 01:35:27,400 Speaker 1: how are you good? All right? Yeah? Thanks thinking my call? Uh. Um, 1758 01:35:27,720 --> 01:35:29,840 Speaker 1: I got a couple of points I like to put in, 1759 01:35:29,960 --> 01:35:33,320 Speaker 1: but before I do. As far as j C. Jackson, um, 1760 01:35:33,520 --> 01:35:37,080 Speaker 1: I am definitely saying, um, let him go or trade 1761 01:35:37,160 --> 01:35:38,720 Speaker 1: him away, and you get to take that money and 1762 01:35:38,800 --> 01:35:42,320 Speaker 1: spread that money around. Um, maybe you know some to 1763 01:35:42,439 --> 01:35:44,439 Speaker 1: sign some of the veterans to bring in some new 1764 01:35:44,520 --> 01:35:47,719 Speaker 1: free agent veterans. That's that's my take on that. Okay, 1765 01:35:47,840 --> 01:35:50,360 Speaker 1: I like him. As far as the yeah, as far 1766 01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:54,479 Speaker 1: as the draft, Um, my precursor is, what if what 1767 01:35:54,600 --> 01:35:58,160 Speaker 1: if the Patriots signed Juju Smith Schuster h Could they 1768 01:35:58,200 --> 01:36:01,599 Speaker 1: sign him before the draft? Possibly? Yes? Oh yeah, yeah, 1769 01:36:01,640 --> 01:36:05,040 Speaker 1: oh yeah, any time after free agency starts March sixteenth, 1770 01:36:05,160 --> 01:36:08,080 Speaker 1: any time after March sixteenth, they can Yeah, okay, so 1771 01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:11,080 Speaker 1: so so this is my scenario. Then, so let's say that. 1772 01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:15,439 Speaker 1: Let's say that does happen. Um, I just want to 1773 01:36:15,439 --> 01:36:17,360 Speaker 1: stay when we get to our pick at twenty one 1774 01:36:17,760 --> 01:36:20,639 Speaker 1: if if, um, we don't have somebody that's the Patriots 1775 01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:24,559 Speaker 1: have been eyeballing, say either offfense, defense or cornerback. If 1776 01:36:24,600 --> 01:36:28,920 Speaker 1: somebody calls Belichick and says, hey, we'll give you a 1777 01:36:29,040 --> 01:36:32,160 Speaker 1: fourth and a seventh or something next year or whatever, 1778 01:36:32,479 --> 01:36:35,320 Speaker 1: I think Belichick wants to load up on pick, and 1779 01:36:35,439 --> 01:36:37,479 Speaker 1: I'd be okay with that. And then as far as 1780 01:36:37,520 --> 01:36:39,800 Speaker 1: another wide recept Wait, wait, wait, what are we getting 1781 01:36:39,840 --> 01:36:41,400 Speaker 1: for the fourth and the seventh? What are you what 1782 01:36:41,439 --> 01:36:44,519 Speaker 1: are we giving away for the fourth and seventh? We're 1783 01:36:44,560 --> 01:36:47,080 Speaker 1: giving up. I'm just saying, like our twenty first pick. 1784 01:36:47,320 --> 01:36:52,320 Speaker 1: Oh no, I would never, Oh my god. I'm just saying, 1785 01:36:52,360 --> 01:36:54,240 Speaker 1: what would you know? What would you guys think it 1786 01:36:54,280 --> 01:36:57,200 Speaker 1: would be worth our first round pick? It'd be worth 1787 01:36:57,479 --> 01:37:00,280 Speaker 1: their first round pick. And it depends if it's hire 1788 01:37:00,320 --> 01:37:01,960 Speaker 1: or lower, like you could get like a two and 1789 01:37:02,040 --> 01:37:04,800 Speaker 1: a three or something like that. Yeah, or first round 1790 01:37:04,840 --> 01:37:07,439 Speaker 1: pick next or first round pick next or a player yeah, 1791 01:37:07,520 --> 01:37:10,519 Speaker 1: and a pick. Yeah, So I'm good with that unless 1792 01:37:10,560 --> 01:37:13,800 Speaker 1: there's like a guy they absolutely wanted, but somebody calls 1793 01:37:13,840 --> 01:37:16,479 Speaker 1: in with offers that. I mean, so you're open to 1794 01:37:16,560 --> 01:37:18,880 Speaker 1: trading down, which is fine. Yeah, I think trading down 1795 01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:21,720 Speaker 1: makes some sense in this scenario, this in this year, 1796 01:37:21,960 --> 01:37:25,320 Speaker 1: I would, you know, fashion against that to see what 1797 01:37:25,720 --> 01:37:28,880 Speaker 1: held the board unfolds and see like like Jeff said, 1798 01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:30,880 Speaker 1: like if there's a guy that Patriots really like at 1799 01:37:30,880 --> 01:37:34,320 Speaker 1: a position that they really need, um, a lot of 1800 01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:37,080 Speaker 1: groundswell all of a sudden for Juju Smith Schuster. By 1801 01:37:37,120 --> 01:37:40,560 Speaker 1: the way, I'm not in love with him, Okay, me neither. Like, 1802 01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:43,920 Speaker 1: even if you got him, I would still draft a 1803 01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:47,240 Speaker 1: receiver in the one you liked. You know, so you're 1804 01:37:47,320 --> 01:37:50,360 Speaker 1: leaning towards you want a first round receiver. No, if 1805 01:37:50,400 --> 01:37:53,519 Speaker 1: this one you like, yeah you you. I want to 1806 01:37:53,520 --> 01:37:56,040 Speaker 1: take the best player available. This is this. I mean, 1807 01:37:56,360 --> 01:37:58,240 Speaker 1: we don't have to keep going down this road because 1808 01:37:58,240 --> 01:38:00,599 Speaker 1: I know he's gonna have that smirk he's and eventually 1809 01:38:00,640 --> 01:38:02,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna make me pop. Yeah I want. I want. 1810 01:38:02,880 --> 01:38:05,080 Speaker 1: What he's telling you is whatever they take, he's gonna 1811 01:38:05,120 --> 01:38:08,040 Speaker 1: write on. Yeah, I want to take the best player available, right, 1812 01:38:08,160 --> 01:38:13,120 Speaker 1: So that's a great nebulous like phrase to use, that 1813 01:38:13,320 --> 01:38:15,640 Speaker 1: you can never be proven wrong. It's great, there is, 1814 01:38:15,680 --> 01:38:17,400 Speaker 1: it's great. It's a great way to go through life. 1815 01:38:17,760 --> 01:38:20,320 Speaker 1: We all agree that there's so many things that they need, right, 1816 01:38:20,400 --> 01:38:22,400 Speaker 1: so pick one. You can only pick one. You're in 1817 01:38:22,479 --> 01:38:24,439 Speaker 1: charge of the draft, Fred kersh, who do you pick? 1818 01:38:24,560 --> 01:38:27,320 Speaker 1: But you don't go into the draft saying we're going 1819 01:38:27,400 --> 01:38:30,360 Speaker 1: to take a cornerback in the first round. That's stupid, 1820 01:38:30,920 --> 01:38:34,439 Speaker 1: I think is the most like the do you need 1821 01:38:34,920 --> 01:38:37,679 Speaker 1: what's number one on your your need? Speed on defense? 1822 01:38:38,720 --> 01:38:42,880 Speaker 1: A position can give me a position that it's a 1823 01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:45,200 Speaker 1: master class. That's stupid to do that. I'm not gonna 1824 01:38:45,280 --> 01:38:47,720 Speaker 1: kill you. Like on draft, I and said friend friend 1825 01:38:47,800 --> 01:38:50,120 Speaker 1: thought they should take a corner. The caller that thought 1826 01:38:50,120 --> 01:38:52,519 Speaker 1: the first hour, the caller called in and asked me 1827 01:38:52,680 --> 01:38:54,799 Speaker 1: and Paul, we both agree we would take a cornerback 1828 01:38:54,840 --> 01:38:57,400 Speaker 1: if all you know, all things, if everything's even, yes 1829 01:38:57,560 --> 01:38:59,519 Speaker 1: we're taking a corner, which they never are. But if 1830 01:38:59,520 --> 01:39:02,760 Speaker 1: they are in the game, okay, I'll take it's a 1831 01:39:02,880 --> 01:39:06,599 Speaker 1: hypothetic if it's if it's all. But but you love 1832 01:39:06,680 --> 01:39:09,920 Speaker 1: to just say, like basically, well what if they really 1833 01:39:10,040 --> 01:39:13,680 Speaker 1: like them? Yeah, well, no, poop. They really like him. 1834 01:39:13,720 --> 01:39:16,160 Speaker 1: They took him. They really liked nikkil Harry. So they 1835 01:39:16,280 --> 01:39:18,479 Speaker 1: draft a kicker, they drafted them. You're okay with that, 1836 01:39:18,880 --> 01:39:21,679 Speaker 1: Like they don't draft them in the first round because 1837 01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:23,479 Speaker 1: they don't like them. The Patriots will never do that. 1838 01:39:23,640 --> 01:39:25,360 Speaker 1: How do you know? I never. You can never say 1839 01:39:25,439 --> 01:39:27,280 Speaker 1: never with the never gonna draft a kicker. You could 1840 01:39:27,280 --> 01:39:29,639 Speaker 1: never say never with Bill Belichick. There's another ground swell 1841 01:39:29,720 --> 01:39:32,320 Speaker 1: that's going on. So people have Jake Bailey out of town. 1842 01:39:32,360 --> 01:39:34,639 Speaker 1: Have you seen this? No, there's like a lefty punter, 1843 01:39:35,120 --> 01:39:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, one of these stop it. No, not you, 1844 01:39:38,960 --> 01:39:41,720 Speaker 1: I'm you're talking about Billy didn't have a great year. 1845 01:39:41,840 --> 01:39:44,040 Speaker 1: He didn't. But you don't think that's a possibility. No, 1846 01:39:44,200 --> 01:39:45,920 Speaker 1: I don't. Oh, I do I think he I think 1847 01:39:45,960 --> 01:39:47,599 Speaker 1: it was injured for most of the year and had 1848 01:39:47,600 --> 01:39:49,840 Speaker 1: a down year coming off of an All Pro count. 1849 01:39:50,040 --> 01:39:52,599 Speaker 1: Is in the fifth round you couldn't see them drafted. 1850 01:39:52,680 --> 01:39:54,439 Speaker 1: So this is I think he's a good player. Is 1851 01:39:54,479 --> 01:39:56,880 Speaker 1: this his fourth year coming up? This would be his Uh? 1852 01:39:57,800 --> 01:40:00,960 Speaker 1: I think it's his fourth gets fourth year? Yeah, I absolutely, 1853 01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:02,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't rule it out. I don't think 1854 01:40:02,920 --> 01:40:05,720 Speaker 1: it'll happen. I think it'd be dumb because I don't 1855 01:40:05,760 --> 01:40:09,800 Speaker 1: think Punter's cost anything. But yeah, I absolutely would not 1856 01:40:09,920 --> 01:40:11,519 Speaker 1: rule it out. I gotta look up the guys. I 1857 01:40:11,560 --> 01:40:13,559 Speaker 1: think he's a good a good player, and I don't 1858 01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:15,920 Speaker 1: think they I think they can cut him a little 1859 01:40:15,920 --> 01:40:17,720 Speaker 1: slack from last year. I think it's a kid from 1860 01:40:17,760 --> 01:40:24,360 Speaker 1: San Diego State. There's that matter. Raisa Riza. I think 1861 01:40:24,400 --> 01:40:28,120 Speaker 1: that's the guy I'm thinking of. But yeah, a lot 1862 01:40:28,200 --> 01:40:31,720 Speaker 1: of people have like him mocked to the Patriots in 1863 01:40:32,080 --> 01:40:35,840 Speaker 1: like the sixth round, which I can't stand something. Let 1864 01:40:35,880 --> 01:40:39,880 Speaker 1: me ask you, guys, So first round, first pick, and 1865 01:40:40,360 --> 01:40:44,200 Speaker 1: you know the Patriots end up taking a linebacker instead 1866 01:40:44,200 --> 01:40:47,120 Speaker 1: of a cornerback, You're gonna be upset. Nope, No, all right, 1867 01:40:47,280 --> 01:40:50,040 Speaker 1: So that's all I'm saying. Yeah, but no, But what 1868 01:40:50,160 --> 01:40:51,680 Speaker 1: you're saying is you think it will be the right 1869 01:40:51,760 --> 01:40:55,200 Speaker 1: move no matter what. Like, if there's a cornerback that 1870 01:40:55,280 --> 01:40:57,200 Speaker 1: I like more than the linebacker that they take, I'll 1871 01:40:57,200 --> 01:40:59,400 Speaker 1: be mad. No, if the guy's a bus, he's a bust, 1872 01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:05,360 Speaker 1: you know. No. What I'm saying is if I like, uh, 1873 01:41:06,760 --> 01:41:12,200 Speaker 1: Derek Stingley or Trent McDuffie and he's available and they 1874 01:41:12,320 --> 01:41:17,439 Speaker 1: take some linebacker that I don't like as much. You'll 1875 01:41:17,479 --> 01:41:20,800 Speaker 1: just say, well piled and they like that. Whoa whoa, 1876 01:41:20,800 --> 01:41:23,360 Speaker 1: whoa whoa, whoa whoa. How many times in our draft 1877 01:41:23,439 --> 01:41:26,120 Speaker 1: show do we have our guy that we think, oh draft, 1878 01:41:26,280 --> 01:41:28,040 Speaker 1: you know, picks coming up? Who do you want? And 1879 01:41:28,160 --> 01:41:30,720 Speaker 1: I get upset because they didn't pick my guy I 1880 01:41:30,960 --> 01:41:33,280 Speaker 1: could think of, Justin Jefferson. It happens as many times 1881 01:41:33,360 --> 01:41:36,519 Speaker 1: as you. We all have our guys that we really 1882 01:41:36,800 --> 01:41:38,960 Speaker 1: really like Justin Jefferson, and I think he went off 1883 01:41:39,000 --> 01:41:41,320 Speaker 1: the board right around when they picked. And they all 1884 01:41:41,320 --> 01:41:43,560 Speaker 1: have our guys that we like, and we get disappointed 1885 01:41:43,600 --> 01:41:45,360 Speaker 1: when they don't. You get disappointed, and then the next day, 1886 01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:46,840 Speaker 1: after you sleep it off, you come back and say, 1887 01:41:46,880 --> 01:41:48,120 Speaker 1: you know, the more I think about it, this was 1888 01:41:48,200 --> 01:41:50,120 Speaker 1: a great pick. You look at it as a whole, 1889 01:41:50,360 --> 01:41:53,040 Speaker 1: and you do a little bit more recent and you 1890 01:41:53,080 --> 01:41:57,960 Speaker 1: get educated, you get educated. You know, rarely do I 1891 01:41:58,040 --> 01:42:01,560 Speaker 1: say get educated education. I rarely say that you do 1892 01:42:01,720 --> 01:42:04,160 Speaker 1: better at the draft. I really say that picks were great, 1893 01:42:04,479 --> 01:42:07,680 Speaker 1: because that's no, you don't know. I'll give you that. 1894 01:42:07,800 --> 01:42:09,559 Speaker 1: But you get on one of those guys, you get 1895 01:42:09,600 --> 01:42:12,760 Speaker 1: on board with their picks more quickly than some of us. Yeah, 1896 01:42:12,760 --> 01:42:15,479 Speaker 1: I mean I get pumped up. Sure. The other thing 1897 01:42:15,520 --> 01:42:18,920 Speaker 1: I like about the seven round mock drafts, Yeah, somehow 1898 01:42:19,080 --> 01:42:21,240 Speaker 1: these guys that do that find a way to pick 1899 01:42:21,320 --> 01:42:25,240 Speaker 1: seven guys that you know, oh yeah, right, pick you know, 1900 01:42:25,360 --> 01:42:27,600 Speaker 1: I know, like fifty guys in the draft. Yeah. And 1901 01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:30,160 Speaker 1: somehow I got a guy that I really, I'm intimately 1902 01:42:30,160 --> 01:42:32,519 Speaker 1: a like, I know, you know, really well, I scouted 1903 01:42:32,560 --> 01:42:34,559 Speaker 1: this guy and I got him at two thirty years. 1904 01:42:34,600 --> 01:42:36,519 Speaker 1: I didn't think he'd be there either. Should have gone 1905 01:42:36,560 --> 01:42:38,400 Speaker 1: in the second round. He's available in the seventh. Sure, 1906 01:42:38,400 --> 01:42:44,240 Speaker 1: I'll take him. Right. Let's go to Travis and chapel Hill. 1907 01:42:44,280 --> 01:42:49,599 Speaker 1: What's up Travis? Hey, guys, Hey, I just got two questions. 1908 01:42:50,400 --> 01:42:52,800 Speaker 1: My first. I started listening to you guys right after 1909 01:42:52,880 --> 01:42:55,760 Speaker 1: the Detroit game on Sunday night a couple of years ago. 1910 01:42:57,600 --> 01:42:59,920 Speaker 1: You guys were talking about how the Patriots needed to 1911 01:43:00,040 --> 01:43:03,479 Speaker 1: get feed on Deefet. I know that we've drafted players, 1912 01:43:03,560 --> 01:43:06,360 Speaker 1: but we haven't seen the speed yet. On defense, I 1913 01:43:06,400 --> 01:43:13,479 Speaker 1: would agree the defensive bats like Bugger Williams chunk playing 1914 01:43:14,320 --> 01:43:17,840 Speaker 1: linebackers at speed more than the speed that we want. 1915 01:43:17,920 --> 01:43:20,960 Speaker 1: Light the Devin white the bush. Yeah. I think it's 1916 01:43:21,000 --> 01:43:22,840 Speaker 1: a great question, Travis, and it's one that we've been 1917 01:43:22,880 --> 01:43:25,560 Speaker 1: talking about for a while, um as you just alluded to. 1918 01:43:25,760 --> 01:43:31,000 Speaker 1: But I do think that he values size in the 1919 01:43:31,080 --> 01:43:35,320 Speaker 1: middle over speed. I do think that's a philosophical trait 1920 01:43:35,439 --> 01:43:38,200 Speaker 1: that Belichick is He's more interested in the two hundred 1921 01:43:38,200 --> 01:43:40,760 Speaker 1: and forty five two hundred and fifty pound linebacker who 1922 01:43:40,880 --> 01:43:43,000 Speaker 1: might not be quite as fast as a two hundred 1923 01:43:43,000 --> 01:43:45,120 Speaker 1: and twenty five two hundred and thirty pound linebacker. Yeah. 1924 01:43:45,240 --> 01:43:48,200 Speaker 1: Do you also think that the style or Bill's philosophy 1925 01:43:48,280 --> 01:43:51,960 Speaker 1: on defense, especially guys on the edge, hinders them flying 1926 01:43:52,040 --> 01:43:56,120 Speaker 1: around like they're so focused on your job and take 1927 01:43:56,160 --> 01:43:59,160 Speaker 1: the instincts out of it, you know, and it makes 1928 01:43:59,200 --> 01:44:03,040 Speaker 1: them look slower. Could be you know, could Yeah. So 1929 01:44:03,160 --> 01:44:05,599 Speaker 1: I don't know, Like, you know, High Tower this year, 1930 01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:08,360 Speaker 1: like I know he's slowed down, He's not, but like 1931 01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:12,200 Speaker 1: sometimes he just looks like he's you know, you know, 1932 01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:13,960 Speaker 1: wasn't the only one either. There are a lot of 1933 01:44:14,040 --> 01:44:16,920 Speaker 1: players on defense that we saw looking like statues. Yeah, 1934 01:44:17,040 --> 01:44:20,080 Speaker 1: just kind of like that's why I just want to 1935 01:44:20,120 --> 01:44:22,040 Speaker 1: see it sort of a changing of the guard. I know, 1936 01:44:22,160 --> 01:44:24,600 Speaker 1: I you and I had a long discussion about this 1937 01:44:24,680 --> 01:44:26,960 Speaker 1: during the season. I want to see Ouch. I want 1938 01:44:27,000 --> 01:44:30,280 Speaker 1: to see mcgron next year if he's healthy. I want 1939 01:44:30,280 --> 01:44:32,400 Speaker 1: to see Ronnie Perkins. I want to see some some 1940 01:44:32,560 --> 01:44:34,920 Speaker 1: fresh blood. And if they can't play, let's move on 1941 01:44:34,960 --> 01:44:36,599 Speaker 1: and get rid of those guys too. I'm not married 1942 01:44:36,640 --> 01:44:40,120 Speaker 1: to him. Yeah, but I think that they've sort of 1943 01:44:40,200 --> 01:44:44,840 Speaker 1: capped out the High Tower Collins van Noy iteration of 1944 01:44:44,920 --> 01:44:49,320 Speaker 1: the linebacker corps. Yeah, all right, Travis, thanks for calling in. 1945 01:44:49,560 --> 01:44:54,400 Speaker 1: Neil writes in um from New Brunswick. Word, does Fred 1946 01:44:54,479 --> 01:44:58,520 Speaker 1: have stock and speed? Queen? Oh my goodness, was embarrassing 1947 01:44:58,880 --> 01:45:02,720 Speaker 1: his offseason check list. Tag Jackson, hire an actual coordinator, 1948 01:45:03,080 --> 01:45:06,840 Speaker 1: resign Hoyer, Let High Tower go and draft a wide 1949 01:45:06,880 --> 01:45:10,439 Speaker 1: receiver in the first round. Go Ukraine, he says, so 1950 01:45:10,680 --> 01:45:15,120 Speaker 1: oh amen to that. Um. Yeah, so he wants to 1951 01:45:15,200 --> 01:45:20,360 Speaker 1: get a in the first round. His whole list, his 1952 01:45:20,439 --> 01:45:24,040 Speaker 1: whole m O there isn't bad. Yeah, listen, I'm I'm 1953 01:45:24,200 --> 01:45:27,200 Speaker 1: if they draft a wide receiver or a cornerback or 1954 01:45:27,240 --> 01:45:30,080 Speaker 1: a linebacker in the first round, I'll be thrilled. Yeah, 1955 01:45:30,120 --> 01:45:32,800 Speaker 1: you have a lot of positions to choose from in 1956 01:45:32,960 --> 01:45:36,120 Speaker 1: terms of can I get it on record, I doubt 1957 01:45:36,439 --> 01:45:38,679 Speaker 1: I doubt it. But what would you not be thrilled 1958 01:45:38,720 --> 01:45:40,760 Speaker 1: with if they drafted in the first round? Punter? What 1959 01:45:40,880 --> 01:45:46,600 Speaker 1: else beside snapper, beside specialist in quarterback? What would you 1960 01:45:46,760 --> 01:45:50,720 Speaker 1: not be Okay, that's a good question. Um guard, okay, yeah, 1961 01:45:50,960 --> 01:45:55,439 Speaker 1: offensive line yep, But I tackle you. But like I know, 1962 01:45:55,600 --> 01:45:58,240 Speaker 1: I know this is people gonna like. I can't believe 1963 01:45:58,280 --> 01:46:00,679 Speaker 1: you said that if they drafted a center, I wouldn't 1964 01:46:00,720 --> 01:46:04,080 Speaker 1: be upset about that. That good center. Why you don't 1965 01:46:04,120 --> 01:46:06,759 Speaker 1: like it? You don't like David I think I like Andrews. 1966 01:46:06,800 --> 01:46:09,599 Speaker 1: He's good. But if they if there's like this really 1967 01:46:09,960 --> 01:46:14,960 Speaker 1: blue chip center, get him? Why because you think that 1968 01:46:15,360 --> 01:46:18,120 Speaker 1: you think that's a vulnerability. No, well, I think he 1969 01:46:18,160 --> 01:46:20,840 Speaker 1: can get better. We all talk about run blocking. Where 1970 01:46:20,840 --> 01:46:23,519 Speaker 1: did they draft David Andrews? They didn't. Yeah, he was 1971 01:46:23,560 --> 01:46:25,519 Speaker 1: an undrafted guy, So why would you take him in 1972 01:46:25,520 --> 01:46:28,720 Speaker 1: the first round? Because he's a blue chipper. You know 1973 01:46:28,800 --> 01:46:30,800 Speaker 1: this is a guy. I'm talking about, blue chip guy. 1974 01:46:30,960 --> 01:46:34,040 Speaker 1: And how much better is a blue chip center than 1975 01:46:34,160 --> 01:46:37,120 Speaker 1: David Andrews? You don't know because you haven't had one. Really, 1976 01:46:37,760 --> 01:46:40,479 Speaker 1: they had Damien Woody in the first round. How good 1977 01:46:40,680 --> 01:46:42,400 Speaker 1: he was the first rounder. How good? How good a 1978 01:46:42,479 --> 01:46:45,639 Speaker 1: run blocking is the Detroit Lions offensive line? Do you think? 1979 01:46:46,439 --> 01:46:49,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. Okay, because they drafted Frank Ragnow in 1980 01:46:49,360 --> 01:46:50,880 Speaker 1: the first round a couple of years ago when Matt 1981 01:46:50,880 --> 01:46:52,920 Speaker 1: Patricia was there. Okay, did it make a difference to 1982 01:46:52,960 --> 01:46:55,120 Speaker 1: the line. I don't know. You don't know. I would 1983 01:46:55,160 --> 01:46:58,000 Speaker 1: be I would say, no, apoplectic. If they drafted an 1984 01:46:58,040 --> 01:47:00,320 Speaker 1: interior offensive line. Yeah, I wouldn't do a guard. But 1985 01:47:00,400 --> 01:47:02,800 Speaker 1: if like, like a guy that is like that's what 1986 01:47:02,920 --> 01:47:05,000 Speaker 1: he is, Like if it was a tackle and then 1987 01:47:05,040 --> 01:47:08,080 Speaker 1: he ended up eventually like moving in like Isaiah Win 1988 01:47:08,160 --> 01:47:10,400 Speaker 1: you've always wanted to do. Yeah, Like, I don't think 1989 01:47:10,439 --> 01:47:12,760 Speaker 1: I would be pissed off about that. Yeah. But if 1990 01:47:12,800 --> 01:47:18,439 Speaker 1: they drafted just a guy who likes a center. But first, 1991 01:47:18,640 --> 01:47:21,439 Speaker 1: but if if the I mean at twenty one, but 1992 01:47:21,479 --> 01:47:24,400 Speaker 1: if the scouting report isn't I know, scotting reports aren't 1993 01:47:24,400 --> 01:47:26,280 Speaker 1: always that, But if the scout report is this guy's 1994 01:47:26,280 --> 01:47:30,000 Speaker 1: a sure fire blue chip Hall of Fame candidate, you 1995 01:47:30,040 --> 01:47:32,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't take him. Nope. I think they got bigger needs 1996 01:47:32,920 --> 01:47:35,600 Speaker 1: bigger because I think the difference between that guy and 1997 01:47:35,720 --> 01:47:39,719 Speaker 1: David Andrews is negligible. Yeah, so David Andrews a potential 1998 01:47:39,800 --> 01:47:42,320 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. No, I just think he's a good player. Yeah, 1999 01:47:42,960 --> 01:47:45,560 Speaker 1: I think that. By the way, between a Hall of 2000 01:47:45,680 --> 01:47:49,280 Speaker 1: Fame caliber player at a position like that, ye, well, 2001 01:47:49,320 --> 01:47:51,599 Speaker 1: you're at the difference between like a an also ran 2002 01:47:51,760 --> 01:47:55,400 Speaker 1: wide receiver in a Hall of Fame as enormous golf. 2003 01:47:56,680 --> 01:47:57,960 Speaker 1: You have to be really good to get in them. 2004 01:47:58,000 --> 01:48:00,320 Speaker 1: I don't think you're a center away from winning or 2005 01:48:00,360 --> 01:48:02,600 Speaker 1: being competed. Well, you're not. You're nothing away from no 2006 01:48:02,760 --> 01:48:05,400 Speaker 1: team anywhere, every exactly, but that you can say that's 2007 01:48:05,400 --> 01:48:07,840 Speaker 1: for the same position, for any position. You're not anything 2008 01:48:07,920 --> 01:48:10,200 Speaker 1: away one position. Yeah, I think you can say that. 2009 01:48:10,320 --> 01:48:12,800 Speaker 1: No you can't. We're not a cornerback away from winning 2010 01:48:12,840 --> 01:48:15,160 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. No, we're not a wide receiver away 2011 01:48:15,160 --> 01:48:17,400 Speaker 1: from winning. There are teams that are, though you talk 2012 01:48:17,439 --> 01:48:21,240 Speaker 1: about us when we're nothing one position, we're not. That's 2013 01:48:21,240 --> 01:48:23,479 Speaker 1: why I wouldn't waste it on a center. Yeah. I 2014 01:48:23,520 --> 01:48:26,559 Speaker 1: don't think if the guy's a great player, it's not wasted. 2015 01:48:27,240 --> 01:48:31,120 Speaker 1: It's not wasted like they have. They're nine players away 2016 01:48:31,200 --> 01:48:33,280 Speaker 1: from Super Bowl contention, and they draft a center in 2017 01:48:33,320 --> 01:48:39,240 Speaker 1: the first round and they become nine players away from that. Yeah, 2018 01:48:39,720 --> 01:48:47,000 Speaker 1: I think cornerback, wide receiver, UH, linebacker, tackle, any of 2019 01:48:47,080 --> 01:48:49,120 Speaker 1: those I could see being in the first edge. Edge, 2020 01:48:49,160 --> 01:48:52,880 Speaker 1: defensive players, defensive players, like there's a defensive tackle, any 2021 01:48:52,880 --> 01:48:55,760 Speaker 1: of those any sort. Right, there's a lot of needs. 2022 01:48:55,840 --> 01:48:58,120 Speaker 1: I would not put center on my list of any 2023 01:48:58,160 --> 01:49:01,360 Speaker 1: of those needs. Well, Paul class, is there any position 2024 01:49:01,439 --> 01:49:05,120 Speaker 1: that you would be? That's the only one he had. 2025 01:49:05,320 --> 01:49:07,920 Speaker 1: So it's just basically telling you that whatever they take, 2026 01:49:08,080 --> 01:49:10,479 Speaker 1: he's going to be happy. I'm good. I'm okay taking 2027 01:49:10,520 --> 01:49:12,120 Speaker 1: good play See, I won't be happy if they take 2028 01:49:12,120 --> 01:49:15,720 Speaker 1: a defense. I'm okay taking really good players. And that's 2029 01:49:15,960 --> 01:49:19,360 Speaker 1: in friend's defense. That's his master class right there. He'll 2030 01:49:19,439 --> 01:49:22,679 Speaker 1: fall back on they think he's great. I'm obviously gonna 2031 01:49:22,760 --> 01:49:25,760 Speaker 1: suppress my disappointment with the position by saying he's a 2032 01:49:25,880 --> 01:49:30,080 Speaker 1: really good playoff. When they when they drafted Devin mccordy, 2033 01:49:30,200 --> 01:49:33,680 Speaker 1: I was like, what, Like, I wasn't on board with that, 2034 01:49:33,800 --> 01:49:36,320 Speaker 1: but I was, you know, as a quarterback, I was right. 2035 01:49:36,400 --> 01:49:39,320 Speaker 1: But as a player for this team for a long time, 2036 01:49:39,680 --> 01:49:42,880 Speaker 1: he was absolutely worth the pick, no doubt about it, 2037 01:49:43,720 --> 01:49:47,000 Speaker 1: you know, but he wasn't a cornerback. Well, and that's 2038 01:49:47,040 --> 01:49:49,160 Speaker 1: what they drafted him. In fairness, he made the Pro 2039 01:49:49,280 --> 01:49:51,280 Speaker 1: Bowl as a rookie as a cornerback. He did he 2040 01:49:51,360 --> 01:49:53,120 Speaker 1: had was in a corner No, yeah, I know that, 2041 01:49:53,240 --> 01:49:55,320 Speaker 1: but he was. I mean people thought after his first 2042 01:49:55,400 --> 01:49:57,240 Speaker 1: year he was a cornerback. I think that's one of 2043 01:49:57,280 --> 01:49:59,640 Speaker 1: the picks that they made that was the most in 2044 01:49:59,800 --> 01:50:03,280 Speaker 1: line mine with conventional wisdom. I think everybody in their 2045 01:50:03,360 --> 01:50:07,639 Speaker 1: brother had him going between like twenty five and thirty five. Yeah, 2046 01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:09,479 Speaker 1: and that's right where we took him late in the 2047 01:50:09,520 --> 01:50:11,240 Speaker 1: first round, right, Yeah, I forget the number. I think 2048 01:50:11,240 --> 01:50:14,280 Speaker 1: it was thirty, it was, yeah, yeah, it was that 2049 01:50:14,360 --> 01:50:15,760 Speaker 1: one of the years coming off of Super Bowl, it 2050 01:50:15,840 --> 01:50:20,519 Speaker 1: was somewhere round there. I think that was one of 2051 01:50:20,600 --> 01:50:23,479 Speaker 1: those picks that because he went to Rutgers, people were questioning. 2052 01:50:23,520 --> 01:50:29,120 Speaker 1: And then Bill Bill made the mistake of saying he's 2053 01:50:29,120 --> 01:50:31,240 Speaker 1: a four down player, and people like they drafted a 2054 01:50:31,360 --> 01:50:33,160 Speaker 1: gunner in the first round, Like, no, that's not what 2055 01:50:33,240 --> 01:50:35,479 Speaker 1: he said. Yeah, that's not what Bill said. Here's where 2056 01:50:35,479 --> 01:50:37,920 Speaker 1: I will defend Bill. That's not what he said that day. 2057 01:50:38,680 --> 01:50:40,519 Speaker 1: But yeah, that was a that was a really good pick. 2058 01:50:41,400 --> 01:50:42,960 Speaker 1: The time you drafted a guy in the first round, 2059 01:50:42,960 --> 01:50:44,880 Speaker 1: and he's part of your franchise for a decade plus. 2060 01:50:45,439 --> 01:50:47,679 Speaker 1: That's a good I beg your pardon. He was twenty seventh, 2061 01:50:47,800 --> 01:50:51,360 Speaker 1: twenty seventh, Yeah, okay, that was an off year. Yeah, yeah, 2062 01:50:51,720 --> 01:50:53,840 Speaker 1: twenty that was twenty ten, so coming off that loss 2063 01:50:53,880 --> 01:50:56,280 Speaker 1: to Baltimore for two thousand and nine season, all right, 2064 01:50:56,320 --> 01:50:59,200 Speaker 1: that was one of the worst years in the dynasty. Yeah, 2065 01:51:00,320 --> 01:51:04,280 Speaker 1: um jacket and Abba writes in Jackson is worth paying, 2066 01:51:04,479 --> 01:51:06,519 Speaker 1: but he is not worth paying what the market will 2067 01:51:06,560 --> 01:51:11,320 Speaker 1: give him. Thank you, he's worth paying, Fred, did you 2068 01:51:11,439 --> 01:51:14,000 Speaker 1: just write that email? Thank Jackson for all the great memories. 2069 01:51:14,000 --> 01:51:16,120 Speaker 1: He's worth minimum wage and wish him well with his 2070 01:51:16,280 --> 01:51:19,799 Speaker 1: next team except when they play the page. He's worth paying, 2071 01:51:20,040 --> 01:51:22,760 Speaker 1: just not what he's worth. Yeah, that's what he just said, right, 2072 01:51:25,240 --> 01:51:27,560 Speaker 1: He's not worth paying what the market right, what the 2073 01:51:27,720 --> 01:51:30,519 Speaker 1: market will pay him is worth's worth worth paying? Means 2074 01:51:30,960 --> 01:51:33,320 Speaker 1: what the market he does. He doesn't think the market's 2075 01:51:33,760 --> 01:51:35,600 Speaker 1: right for him, so then he's not worth paying what 2076 01:51:35,720 --> 01:51:38,160 Speaker 1: he says. He says, wish him well, right, he says, 2077 01:51:38,160 --> 01:51:39,840 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, I'm not making fun of that. I'm 2078 01:51:39,840 --> 01:51:43,040 Speaker 1: just saying, like, you don't think he's worth paying exactly. Yeah, 2079 01:51:44,280 --> 01:51:46,320 Speaker 1: like you. I mean, it'd be great if I could 2080 01:51:46,400 --> 01:51:49,439 Speaker 1: get you know, Jay Z Jackson for five million dollars. 2081 01:51:49,600 --> 01:51:52,000 Speaker 1: I think in five years, five millions, I think. I think. 2082 01:51:52,080 --> 01:51:55,200 Speaker 1: I don't want to speak for Jack in an Aba, 2083 01:51:55,280 --> 01:51:57,719 Speaker 1: but he'd probably say he's worth paying like fifteen millions, 2084 01:51:58,600 --> 01:52:00,840 Speaker 1: you know. I mean that's I don't think so, based 2085 01:52:00,880 --> 01:52:03,920 Speaker 1: on the way he's say that email. Yeah, if you 2086 01:52:04,000 --> 01:52:06,439 Speaker 1: think it's worth fifteen, but what's a couple of million 2087 01:52:06,520 --> 01:52:10,200 Speaker 1: more eighteen? Yeah, Zach writes in from Brighton. I wrote 2088 01:52:10,240 --> 01:52:12,640 Speaker 1: in last week regarding Jac to the Eagles for a 2089 01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:17,200 Speaker 1: first round trade. Freddy agree that at first for Jac 2090 01:52:17,479 --> 01:52:19,680 Speaker 1: is asking a lot. But would you include a pick 2091 01:52:20,120 --> 01:52:24,120 Speaker 1: to get that trade done? So we give them Jac 2092 01:52:24,360 --> 01:52:28,320 Speaker 1: and a pick for their first round? What pick? I mean? Yeah, 2093 01:52:28,320 --> 01:52:30,799 Speaker 1: because they have three picks in the first round, the Eagles, 2094 01:52:31,080 --> 01:52:34,200 Speaker 1: JC and what pick. I don't know. The third round. 2095 01:52:35,479 --> 01:52:37,040 Speaker 1: You do it if you might be able to get, 2096 01:52:37,160 --> 01:52:38,920 Speaker 1: you might be able to get what I do it. 2097 01:52:38,960 --> 01:52:42,080 Speaker 1: If I were the Eagles, now, yeah, but I would 2098 01:52:42,479 --> 01:52:44,600 Speaker 1: I would just draft a cornerback in the first round. Like, 2099 01:52:44,840 --> 01:52:49,400 Speaker 1: I don't think that taking a cornerback, giving up a 2100 01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:51,799 Speaker 1: first round pick and paying them one hundred million dollars 2101 01:52:52,320 --> 01:52:54,519 Speaker 1: is worth it for another team. I think it's going 2102 01:52:54,600 --> 01:52:57,920 Speaker 1: to be very right interesting to see where Jackson lands, 2103 01:52:58,520 --> 01:53:01,759 Speaker 1: you know, like who ends up paying him? Like Philly 2104 01:53:01,880 --> 01:53:06,360 Speaker 1: has three first round picks, Why would you trade one 2105 01:53:07,280 --> 01:53:10,400 Speaker 1: so you can get a cornerback that you then have 2106 01:53:10,520 --> 01:53:13,599 Speaker 1: to pay all this money? Wouldn't it just make more 2107 01:53:13,680 --> 01:53:17,679 Speaker 1: sense to well? I guess you could make the argument 2108 01:53:17,760 --> 01:53:19,840 Speaker 1: with one of those first round picks. I'm gonna get 2109 01:53:19,840 --> 01:53:23,280 Speaker 1: somebody I'm absolutely sure of. You know, I'm gonna get 2110 01:53:23,320 --> 01:53:25,680 Speaker 1: a cornerback who's gonna start a day one, and I'm 2111 01:53:25,720 --> 01:53:27,880 Speaker 1: gonna be sure that he's going to be really good. 2112 01:53:27,920 --> 01:53:30,280 Speaker 1: I mean there's something to be said there, you know. 2113 01:53:30,400 --> 01:53:32,760 Speaker 1: But it's not just the difference. I know, and you 2114 01:53:32,840 --> 01:53:34,880 Speaker 1: have to pay him. Yeah, I get it, I get it, 2115 01:53:34,960 --> 01:53:37,800 Speaker 1: but it's far more damaging. But it's what do you 2116 01:53:37,840 --> 01:53:41,240 Speaker 1: mean damaging? Like I have to not only give up 2117 01:53:41,280 --> 01:53:43,120 Speaker 1: a first round pick, I have to give up first 2118 01:53:43,160 --> 01:53:45,480 Speaker 1: round pick and money and it costs you more. Absolutely, 2119 01:53:45,560 --> 01:53:47,800 Speaker 1: But I give up a first round pick and he 2120 01:53:47,920 --> 01:53:49,960 Speaker 1: just plays. But if you think he's a's not gonna 2121 01:53:50,040 --> 01:53:51,840 Speaker 1: kill me unless he's a bust. Yeah, But if you 2122 01:53:51,920 --> 01:53:55,519 Speaker 1: think he's a sure thing, then okay, cornerback solved. You know, 2123 01:53:56,600 --> 01:53:58,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. If you think he's worth the money, 2124 01:53:59,040 --> 01:54:02,080 Speaker 1: then you do it. Somebody's gonna pay him, Yeah, but no, 2125 01:54:02,360 --> 01:54:04,960 Speaker 1: someone will pay him. But I don't think someone's gonna 2126 01:54:04,960 --> 01:54:07,280 Speaker 1: pay him and give a first round pick. Yeah, that's 2127 01:54:07,320 --> 01:54:09,320 Speaker 1: the part of the equation that I don't agree with. 2128 01:54:09,640 --> 01:54:11,400 Speaker 1: I think if he goes to the open market, someone 2129 01:54:11,439 --> 01:54:14,479 Speaker 1: will absolutely pay him. I don't I don't really have 2130 01:54:14,640 --> 01:54:17,920 Speaker 1: much doubt about that someone will pay him. But asking 2131 01:54:18,000 --> 01:54:20,559 Speaker 1: someone to give a first round pick and pay him, now, 2132 01:54:20,640 --> 01:54:22,320 Speaker 1: I have doubts about that. I don't think he's that 2133 01:54:22,400 --> 01:54:26,960 Speaker 1: kind of player. Vashon from New York. Hey, guys, how 2134 01:54:27,000 --> 01:54:29,479 Speaker 1: would you rank our offseason needs? We've kind of talked 2135 01:54:29,479 --> 01:54:32,160 Speaker 1: about that. I would say tackle is the number one. 2136 01:54:33,920 --> 01:54:36,400 Speaker 1: As I think Brown and Win are on their way out, 2137 01:54:36,600 --> 01:54:39,760 Speaker 1: I think we let Jac walk as well. In that 2138 01:54:39,880 --> 01:54:43,000 Speaker 1: we draft a corner in the second round and linebacker 2139 01:54:43,080 --> 01:54:45,520 Speaker 1: in the third. How would you guys feel if the 2140 01:54:45,560 --> 01:54:49,120 Speaker 1: Patriots went in that direction. I would rather the cornerback 2141 01:54:49,160 --> 01:54:52,040 Speaker 1: in the first round because cornerbacks in the second round 2142 01:54:52,080 --> 01:54:54,200 Speaker 1: are and I each a short thing. Wouldn't you say 2143 01:54:54,240 --> 01:54:57,120 Speaker 1: that that's when you get Sorry. The majority of fans 2144 01:54:57,160 --> 01:54:59,800 Speaker 1: that we're hearing from are like, let him go, Jac. 2145 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:02,240 Speaker 1: I would say, it's about fifty fifty. Yeah, it's pretty 2146 01:55:02,320 --> 01:55:05,720 Speaker 1: pretty split. Yeah. I think some people want to just 2147 01:55:06,880 --> 01:55:09,760 Speaker 1: they don't want to lose the commodity, sure, you know, 2148 01:55:09,880 --> 01:55:13,200 Speaker 1: and they think that makes the defense that much worse. Yep, 2149 01:55:14,360 --> 01:55:18,640 Speaker 1: something that this is Christian writing in which one none 2150 01:55:18,680 --> 01:55:22,080 Speaker 1: of the above. Something that hasn't really had a lot 2151 01:55:22,160 --> 01:55:25,520 Speaker 1: of traction or been talked about a lot is linebackers. 2152 01:55:25,840 --> 01:55:29,640 Speaker 1: In your opinion, which is more important, linebackers or the secondary. 2153 01:55:29,880 --> 01:55:32,120 Speaker 1: If I had it my way, I'd work with Jac 2154 01:55:32,600 --> 01:55:35,080 Speaker 1: to try and get something done, even though it might 2155 01:55:35,160 --> 01:55:37,320 Speaker 1: be a waste of time. But if you cut him, 2156 01:55:37,640 --> 01:55:39,920 Speaker 1: as the famous words of Megan would do, get it. 2157 01:55:41,240 --> 01:55:43,560 Speaker 1: But if you cut him as the famous words of 2158 01:55:43,640 --> 01:55:45,400 Speaker 1: Megan would do, I don't know what that means. Get 2159 01:55:45,440 --> 01:55:49,520 Speaker 1: an affordable, decent replacement for Jac and try and get 2160 01:55:49,600 --> 01:55:53,840 Speaker 1: a good, slash, quick size linebacker then can stop the 2161 01:55:53,960 --> 01:55:58,480 Speaker 1: run and cover if asked to do so. I think 2162 01:55:58,520 --> 01:56:00,680 Speaker 1: it's tough for to find the cornerback. I think a 2163 01:56:00,760 --> 01:56:02,880 Speaker 1: lot of the I'd rather have the corner I think 2164 01:56:02,920 --> 01:56:07,040 Speaker 1: a lot of our listeners take your train of thought 2165 01:56:07,080 --> 01:56:09,680 Speaker 1: for it, Like, we'll just get a replacement for jac Jackson. 2166 01:56:09,720 --> 01:56:13,240 Speaker 1: That's that's decent and affordable. Okay, Oh why didn't I 2167 01:56:13,320 --> 01:56:17,640 Speaker 1: think of that, like the risk of letting jac Jackson? 2168 01:56:18,120 --> 01:56:20,640 Speaker 1: I said, franchise. No, no, no, I'm saying in general, 2169 01:56:20,720 --> 01:56:23,960 Speaker 1: like whatever the Patriots do was right, Like if it 2170 01:56:24,120 --> 01:56:28,680 Speaker 1: was that easy, then you would let everybody go because 2171 01:56:28,720 --> 01:56:31,880 Speaker 1: you can automatically automatic everybody, right, Like, why would you 2172 01:56:32,000 --> 01:56:34,640 Speaker 1: ever pay eighteen million dollars for what you can get 2173 01:56:34,680 --> 01:56:39,280 Speaker 1: for six million dollars? Yea, like you can sign some 2174 01:56:39,680 --> 01:56:44,800 Speaker 1: like was it is it Generius sneed from Kansas City 2175 01:56:44,880 --> 01:56:48,600 Speaker 1: that everybody wants Snead the cornerback from the Chiefs. I 2176 01:56:48,680 --> 01:56:50,480 Speaker 1: don't know if he's as good as J. C. Jackson. 2177 01:56:51,120 --> 01:56:54,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if he is comparable and a better 2178 01:56:54,960 --> 01:56:56,960 Speaker 1: player for the value if you end up signing him 2179 01:56:57,000 --> 01:57:01,280 Speaker 1: to a more affordable contract. But we could just say, like, well, 2180 01:57:01,320 --> 01:57:03,760 Speaker 1: you just get a decent cornerback. Well, that doesn't make 2181 01:57:03,800 --> 01:57:06,600 Speaker 1: you good, right with J. C. Jackson? Your secondary wasn't 2182 01:57:06,640 --> 01:57:09,440 Speaker 1: good enough down the stretch. It was great during the 2183 01:57:09,560 --> 01:57:11,760 Speaker 1: year when you were playing bad teams, but when you 2184 01:57:11,960 --> 01:57:13,440 Speaker 1: when the rubber hit the road at the end of 2185 01:57:13,480 --> 01:57:16,680 Speaker 1: the year, you couldn't stop anybody, and now you're losing 2186 01:57:16,720 --> 01:57:19,040 Speaker 1: the best player off of that to replace with somebody 2187 01:57:19,320 --> 01:57:23,160 Speaker 1: quote decent see I I'd franchise him and draft a 2188 01:57:23,240 --> 01:57:26,200 Speaker 1: cornerback in the first round. That's what I posed today 2189 01:57:26,480 --> 01:57:28,680 Speaker 1: in the notes. That would be the option. If you're 2190 01:57:28,720 --> 01:57:30,920 Speaker 1: gonna franchise him, you still got a draft one. Yeah, 2191 01:57:31,840 --> 01:57:35,360 Speaker 1: Bill and Vista, California. Any thoughts on the rumors of 2192 01:57:35,520 --> 01:57:39,400 Speaker 1: trading a second round pick for Calvin Ridley? Is that 2193 01:57:39,520 --> 01:57:42,360 Speaker 1: a rumor? Has that been talking? A lot of people 2194 01:57:42,400 --> 01:57:44,160 Speaker 1: have been talking about her for a couple of months. 2195 01:57:45,080 --> 01:57:48,240 Speaker 1: I don't I would do it. I don't know for 2196 01:57:48,400 --> 01:57:50,920 Speaker 1: sure that that's what would get it done. If you're 2197 01:57:50,960 --> 01:57:53,880 Speaker 1: the Falcons, Wow, we're up against it already. I know, 2198 01:57:54,040 --> 01:57:57,640 Speaker 1: Quick show. I couldn't. I can't believe Rick Show. Wow. 2199 01:57:57,760 --> 01:57:59,840 Speaker 1: But yeah, I would absolutely be in favor of trading 2200 01:57:59,840 --> 01:58:03,680 Speaker 1: a second round pick for assuming that Calvin Ridley is, 2201 01:58:03,920 --> 01:58:07,200 Speaker 1: assuming that he's mentally ready to play Sean and Maine. 2202 01:58:07,280 --> 01:58:09,320 Speaker 1: I think J. C. Jackson is a better version of 2203 01:58:09,440 --> 01:58:12,160 Speaker 1: Logan Ryan. I would like to keep him at top ten. 2204 01:58:12,280 --> 01:58:15,680 Speaker 1: Money but not top five. If Belichick wants to pay him, Okay, 2205 01:58:15,920 --> 01:58:18,520 Speaker 1: if not, it will hurt. But I will trust Belichick, 2206 01:58:19,160 --> 01:58:22,560 Speaker 1: Sean and May and Fred and Fox World. I actually no, 2207 01:58:22,640 --> 01:58:24,520 Speaker 1: but I give him credit. He's telling you I trust 2208 01:58:24,600 --> 01:58:27,440 Speaker 1: I trust Belichick, Like put your cards on the table 2209 01:58:27,480 --> 01:58:28,960 Speaker 1: before you. I say that with the same thing with you. 2210 01:58:29,000 --> 01:58:31,200 Speaker 1: Actually you're a master class. I say, I trust b 2211 01:58:31,400 --> 01:58:36,920 Speaker 1: and you I trust Be. My point is, don't tell 2212 01:58:36,960 --> 01:58:39,680 Speaker 1: me after the fact. I'm telling you right now. I 2213 01:58:39,800 --> 01:58:44,720 Speaker 1: trust them. I'm sorry for you said that you think 2214 01:58:44,760 --> 01:58:47,360 Speaker 1: that they should tag you. I do, and if they don't, 2215 01:58:47,360 --> 01:58:51,280 Speaker 1: I'd be like, that's a mistake. Okay, okay, but you 2216 01:58:51,360 --> 01:58:54,000 Speaker 1: can see you can do that and still trust Bill. Yeah, 2217 01:58:54,680 --> 01:58:57,160 Speaker 1: that's what I'm trying to tell. So when they don't 2218 01:58:57,160 --> 01:58:59,600 Speaker 1: tag him, no, you're going to be upset or not. 2219 01:59:00,680 --> 01:59:03,960 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna like, you know, resign, But I think 2220 01:59:04,000 --> 01:59:06,800 Speaker 1: that I think they should like the draft. I think 2221 01:59:06,800 --> 01:59:09,520 Speaker 1: they should do that, like seventeen point three million. That's 2222 01:59:09,560 --> 01:59:11,840 Speaker 1: probably gonna be a bargain for one year more of it, 2223 01:59:11,920 --> 01:59:14,080 Speaker 1: based on what people are saying. More mistake that they 2224 01:59:14,200 --> 01:59:20,560 Speaker 1: let him go or Sony Michelle, Oh yeah, come on now, 2225 01:59:20,600 --> 01:59:23,560 Speaker 1: you're just showing your ignorance. I'm asking you. I'm asking you. 2226 01:59:23,760 --> 01:59:25,400 Speaker 1: One's been up in arms for the better part of 2227 01:59:25,400 --> 01:59:31,120 Speaker 1: a year up in arms. Yes, okay, Yeah, I like Sony. 2228 01:59:31,160 --> 01:59:32,560 Speaker 1: I like Sony when he was here, and I like 2229 01:59:32,720 --> 01:59:35,400 Speaker 1: him now. You know, I stick with it. I don't 2230 01:59:35,880 --> 01:59:39,200 Speaker 1: change my tune after she usually Yes, you do usually 2231 01:59:39,200 --> 01:59:41,200 Speaker 1: when they're not. I didn't, you don't here. And I 2232 01:59:41,200 --> 01:59:43,080 Speaker 1: don't think he did anything for the Rams. I've not 2233 01:59:43,240 --> 01:59:46,440 Speaker 1: changed my team.
