1 00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:16,920 Speaker 1: The volume. What is going on everybody? John Middlecop Little 2 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: middle Coop weekend mail bag. Way you get in on 3 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 1: the Three and Out podcast is fire into those direct 4 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: messages at John Middlecop is my Instagram DMS wide open, 5 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 1: fire in the DMS, very very easy to do. Obviously, 6 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 1: this will be a big mailbag, not big, but I 7 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: mean I'll bang out your mail bag questions. But I 8 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: did want to hit on the big news on Friday 9 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: afternoon with the Chicago Bears and the Carolina Panthers. I 10 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: have been hard on polls for two main things. One 11 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 1: didn't love when he got the job, he said we're 12 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: gonna take back the North. I just think this league's 13 00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 1: too hard. The Packers have just owned that division and 14 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: for so long Minnesota has been really good. Even if 15 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: you're really good at your job and you have a 16 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: lot of self confidence, I just thought that was a 17 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: really unneeded comment. And then the trade that he made 18 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: during the season to trade his second round pick for 19 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: Chase Claypool, I just didn't like it. I thought the 20 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers fleeced him. Did listen to him with the 21 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 1: pardon my take, guys, he is a likable guy like 22 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: I don't have any It's not like I don't like 23 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: the human being. He seems like a really good guy. 24 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: This was a fantastic trade, you know, to get to 25 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: go to nine, to get an extra second round pick, 26 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: to add a next year's first round pick for a 27 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 1: team that could be pretty bad. To get a second 28 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: round pick, you know in three years. But to me 29 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: to add Dj Moore, a high end player who can 30 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: easily make Pro Bowls, who is under contract, like it's 31 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: a no brainer. It really is, you know. And they 32 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: didn't have to go back that far. It's probably a 33 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: fifteen player draft. We'll think about this. Three or four 34 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are gonna go in the top five, so that 35 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 1: is gonna push down players. And there's a chance that, 36 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: depending on how this Jalen Carter situation plays out, he 37 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: could be sitting there. They can get an offensive lineman. 38 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: They got a bunch of cap space, they can sign 39 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: offensive lineman. This offense is a lot more interesting with 40 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: Dj Moore. Mooney draft a guy commit at a running 41 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: back to go with fields, add some offensive lineman, you know, 42 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: and then build the defense over time. He might got something. 43 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 1: This is a high level move and I think from 44 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: the Panther standpoint, This is a desperation move, and this 45 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: feels much more like the owner than Frank and the 46 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: general manager. Because I love Bryce Young. I think he's 47 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: an excellent player. The only question mark is a short, 48 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: which is a question mark, like most short guys do 49 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: not become Russell Wilson. It became very difficult for Kyler Murray. 50 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: He started getting banged up, Tua gets thrown around like 51 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: a Ragdall. Now, I think this guy is better than 52 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 1: those two players at playing quarterback, but it's still pretty risky. 53 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: Now all reports point that they're gonna take CJ. Stroud, 54 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: a guy that I never in a million years would 55 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,839 Speaker 1: have taken number one overall until I watched the Georgia game, 56 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: and just based on that game, he was, you know, 57 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: he was an elite player. The scrambling ability, the playmaking ability. 58 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: We know how great of a natural passer he is. 59 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: But I still think that's a pretty big question mark, 60 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: like is that something he's gonna do all the time. 61 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: And then they diminished their team by getting rid of 62 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: DJ Moore and obviously the picks, but they do have, 63 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: you know, extra picks because of the Christian McCaffrey trade, 64 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: so I understand why you do this. You have to 65 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: be aggressive. But as a DM or pointed out to 66 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: me weeks ago, most of these trade ups Carson Wentz, 67 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: Trey Lance that they fail, They do not work. Mitch Rubisky, 68 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: they up a spot, you know that they backfire. The 69 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: amount of times that you trade up and you get 70 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes is few and far between. So for the Bears, 71 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: clearly this was their best offer, and it makes sense 72 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 1: once you factor in DJ more over a pick like 73 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: I would rather have DJ more under cost control than 74 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: a second round pick. And it's gonna be hard in 75 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: this quarterback class to get three first rounders, even though 76 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: I only view it as one first rounder because you swap, 77 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: so you give up one for nine. So that's that 78 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: cancels each other each other out, and then you get 79 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: an extra first round pick. So, you know, interesting, this 80 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: is why the NFL's king. You know, it's fascinating. It 81 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: also gives the reason you do this if your Carolina 82 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 1: is you know, it just gives you unlimited amount of 83 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: time to do whatever you want and meet with any player, 84 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: because now every single guy that they want to meet with, 85 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: do extra work with is going to like Hey, Bryce, 86 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,799 Speaker 1: I need an extra dinner. Hey CJ, Hey will Levis, 87 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: Hey Anthony Richardson, we need more time with you. What 88 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: behooves them to give them that time because they know 89 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: they have the number one pick? So kudos to Ryan 90 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: Poles and hold onto your ass if you're a Carolina 91 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: Panthers fan or David Tepper John question about stocks, would 92 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: you recommend somebody to sprinkle something into Tesla and what 93 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: are some others you recommend. I'm currently invested in WWE, 94 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: Sleeping Giant, if Vincell's this summer, Shopify Zillo. I actually 95 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: have docu sign which was booming for me, lost about 96 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: twenty percent on Friday. I have Snapchat basically banking on 97 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: TikTok going extinct. I have Netflix. I have some other 98 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: like Rare earth Materials, EV climate chain stuff which is 99 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: just getting destroyed. I'm not a great stock trader right now, 100 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: so I would not necessarily ask me for advice. The 101 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: one thing on stock like Tesla and some of those 102 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: to buy now. I think it doubled in like the 103 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: last six months. Now it's down about twenty five dollars 104 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: from about two hundred, but it went from about one 105 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: hundred dollars to two hundred. You know, I think late 106 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: last year up until like earlier this month, or you know, 107 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: probably within the last thirty days it started coming back 108 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: to earth. But I get nervous with some of these 109 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: growth stocks that have just accelerated at insane rapid speeds, 110 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: and you know, where's Tesla going to go from here? Now? 111 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: I do think they are a powerful company. They make 112 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: a fantastic car. I've driven in several I've driven one. 113 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 1: They're badass, so their product is elite. And I think 114 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: depending on how you look at this, like Zillo, everyone 115 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: who looks at homes and most people if you're listening 116 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: to podcast, you're in your twenties and thirties, you just 117 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: go to Zillo a lot. So now can they make money? 118 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: They have something powerful, Now can they figure out a 119 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: way to monetize it? Like that thing should be a behemoth? 120 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 1: I love Zillo in theory. Now is it stock going 121 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: to work? You know, shit, I don't know. I hope so, 122 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: because I'm gonna keep investing in it. I may be 123 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: completely wrong, but do you think that one of the 124 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: reasons why some of these quarterback needy teams are not 125 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: going after Lamar now is because they know he'll be 126 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: available next year and they don't have to give up 127 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: the picks. Yeah, I mean I think a huge reason 128 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: is not the picks. I think people will gladly give 129 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: up picks for sweet players. If you can get Khalil Mack, 130 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: if you can get Jalen Ramsey, if you can get 131 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford. Now, two of those were the Rams. You know, 132 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: Jerry's traded for Amari Cooper. The Niners have traded for players. 133 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: I don't think people are afraid to trade for players, 134 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: impact players. I think teams are afraid to give two 135 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty million dollars so to even do this deal, 136 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: to be willing to give up the picks. It's about 137 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: you know, okay, I'm giving up the two picks. What 138 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: deal will he be willing to sign? And really I 139 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: wouldn't give it the picks until the deal signed. And 140 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: most owners remember last year Dave Tepper pulled out of 141 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson because he wouldn't give him the contract that 142 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: the Browns gave him. This is a business. This is 143 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: just business. And I see so many people on social 144 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: media like this is less about football and more about 145 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: like is this guy even remotely good enough? And the 146 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: risk factor is so high to give a guy this 147 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,239 Speaker 1: much money. I think if he's like, hey, I'll signed 148 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: for one hundred and fifty million dollars, I think five 149 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: teams yesterday would have traded for I think the Carolina 150 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: Panthers would have done that basically the deal they just 151 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 1: gave up. But I think it all comes down to finances. 152 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: I really do. Now, would someone give him a bigger 153 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: deal if they didn't have to give up the picks? Right? Like? 154 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: Would I give him two hundred million dollars if he 155 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: was just a true free agent? Yeah? I do agree there. 156 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: I do think he'd be more likely to get more 157 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: money if no one had to give up anything like 158 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,599 Speaker 1: the Cousins situation. He just hit free agency and he 159 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: got ninety million dollars whatever, six years ago. I've been 160 00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: following your show for a handful of years and enjoy 161 00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: the different outlook than a lot of the other shows. 162 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 1: My question point is all this talk of Bryce Young 163 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: being as good as he is, a lot of the 164 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: things being said about him is his vision and smarts 165 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: are the same things that were said about Josh Rosen 166 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: and Josh had the size on him, just the thought 167 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: wondering what your opinion is. Yeah, I think Bryce is 168 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: much more of a playmaker. You know, Josh was a 169 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: true between the pocket, couldn't move, just a natural pocket thrower. 170 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: To me, Josh's comp if he would have worked, would 171 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: have been more like a Joe Flacco, you know, best 172 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: case scenario was like he never obviously got remotely close 173 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: to this. But like Carson Palmer, Bryce is more like 174 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: like a Deshaun Watson E, Russell Wilson E type player, 175 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 1: you know, a playmaker behind the line of scrimmage. But 176 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: he's but he's got really he's got excellent vision, ability 177 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: to go to me, his instincts have as a passer, 178 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: and just understanding of what he was doing at Alabama 179 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: or elite. His arm is you know, I would say 180 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: out of a ten, it's like a seven. But his 181 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: ability and just feel for the position is unreal. I 182 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: think the question mark is he's just small, So one 183 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: is he now he was playing with enormous offensive lineman 184 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: in Alabama. It's more like if people throw him to 185 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: the ground, will he get hurt? Now he played it. 186 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: He played Georgia and I saw him two years ago 187 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: got Pepper in that National Championship game. What happened? Kept 188 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: getting his little ass back up. I'm a fan. I 189 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: think he's really really good. I've been listening to you 190 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: for a while. I love the content. I'm a lifer 191 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: Pats fan that recognizes how lucky the last twenty years 192 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: have been. I love Bill Belichick, and I think there's 193 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: still a place for him in the organization. But I 194 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: think he's our biggest issue. He's too good of a 195 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: coach to ever be picking in the top five or 196 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: the ten in the draft. Agreed, And he's too arrogant 197 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: to ever trade up. Agreed. We lucked into Mac Jones 198 00:10:58,280 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: two years ago at pick fifteen, and Mac had an 199 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: amazing rookie year for the player he is. Then Bill 200 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: decided to essentially waste a year of his rookie deal 201 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,119 Speaker 1: by hiring two of his friends to be the offensive coordinators, 202 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: and it was a disaster that everyone had predicted. Hiring 203 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 1: Billy Oh to be the OC this year was a 204 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: good hire, but everyone knows Bob Kraft probably forced his 205 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: hand on that. Bill has always been the guy to 206 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: move on from players a year or two early, rather 207 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: than wait for them to decline. Should the Crafts do 208 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: the same. Here's the problem. Belichick is such a legend, 209 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: and he accomplished so much, and he's just so beloved, 210 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: you know what he brought to the table that it 211 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: is hard to fire the guy when he's the guy 212 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: if through the Crafts that has made you so much money. 213 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: But you know, he's over seventy years old. He is 214 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: a curmudgeon. And I say that in a good way, 215 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: like it's it's it's a benefit. It's worked toward his 216 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: you know, prowess as a coach, you know, during his run. 217 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,079 Speaker 1: But now it's you know, if you're It's one thing 218 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: to be a curmudgeon when you're going fourteen and two 219 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: and getting the number one seed and hosting the AFC 220 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: Championship game and going to every other Super Bowl. It's 221 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: another thing when you're winning seven eight games. You know, 222 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: no one wants to be around the asshole when times 223 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: aren't going well. So I have a hard time seeing 224 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: the Crafts fire him. I don't know, Honestly, I can't 225 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: predict how this thing ends. My guess ends weird, you 226 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: know why, because things usually in sports with an aging legend, 227 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: whether it's a coach, or a player end weird. So 228 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: you couldn't pay me to write the script how it's 229 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: gonna end, because I do think it's very, very difficult 230 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: for the Crafts to fire him. And like you said, 231 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: it's hard for them ever to go like five six wins. 232 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: They're always gonna be like eight, nine, ten and maybe 233 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 1: they maybe they get the seven seed or maybe they 234 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: miss it by a game. That's the shittiest spot to 235 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: be in. It'll be interesting this year with Billy O 236 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: and over the next week. You know that they retain 237 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: Jacobe Myers. What do they do in the draft? He 238 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: never drafts receivers high very well. But do they draft 239 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: and this isn't a great receiver draft. What I would 240 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: imagine they do is take a tight end, really good 241 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 1: tight end draft. So you know they're gonna be good 242 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 1: on defense. You know they're gonna be good on special teams. 243 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: But it's gonna end weird. You just you know it is. 244 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: It's not like they're gonna end with like back to 245 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: back playoff burst and Bill is gonna be like, Okay, see, 246 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna retire, which is what I admire about the guy. 247 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: Like I like about Bill Belichick that He's just different 248 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: than everyone else. It is. He's been a fantastic sports 249 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: character in the in the reality television that is the 250 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: National Football League. He has been a star character for 251 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: twenty plus years. But like you know, shows get canceled, 252 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: and it kind of feels like Belichick's you know, especially 253 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes characters die off or leave. It feels 254 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,439 Speaker 1: like Belichick's coming down the home stretch, Get off the bench. 255 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: Bet the NBA with FanDuel, America's number one sports book. 256 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: Right now, FanDuel's given new customers ten times.

I 286 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: know that how much each coach makes isn't public, but 287 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: the Steelers that frequently have one of the smaller coaching 288 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: staffs in the league. Why do you think that is 289 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: Rooney's being cheap Tomlin's preference. That's a question I honestly 290 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: don't have the answer to. H I doubt they're being cheap. 291 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: Now they are old school, and you know, twenty thirty 292 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: years ago there weren't seventy five million coaches on staff. Now, 293 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: every position has an assistant, every side of the ball 294 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: has seven analysts and three quality control guys. You know 295 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: Belichick back when they were kicking, everyone's asked with tom 296 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: had one of the smaller staffs. So I to me, 297 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: Tomlin's less about the size, because you're right, I mean, 298 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: that's probably some Rooney's It is a little weird that 299 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: they have not had a losing season in what you know, 300 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 1: in his reign, in his tenure as the head coach, 301 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: and he doesn't have one like Robert Sala he doesn't 302 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: have one lafleur. Think how many Kyle Shanahan has been 303 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: coaching six years from the forty nine ers has multiple 304 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: head coaches. That's not even counting the other guys that 305 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: he kind of created. So yeah, it's a little weird. 306 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: I mean, help people getting hired from Sean mcveah. I 307 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: don't know what to tell you. I like Mike Tomlin, 308 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: but you raise pretty good points. The coaching staff doesn't 309 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: bother me as much like they don't They don't feel 310 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 1: like an operation that is losing or winning because the 311 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: coaching staff's not big enough. I think sometimes some of 312 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: these coaches probably are stealing. Let's let's be real. There's 313 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 1: a lot of analysts and assistance. What the fuck are 314 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: they doing. Let's let's just call a spade a spade. 315 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 1: There are a lot of guys in the league making 316 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 1: one hundred two hundred grand working like assistance of an assistant, 317 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: which you'd be hard pressed to know what they're doing. 318 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 1: Question about Lamar and non exclusive tag? Could the Dolphins 319 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: reach an agreement that the Ravens decide not to match, 320 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: Knowing the Dolphins don't have a twenty twenty three pick, 321 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 1: would their compensation not come until twenty four and twenty 322 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: five Also, if the Lions went for Lamar, they only 323 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: have to give up their their native pick at eighteen, 324 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 1: I believe, and keep the Rams pick. Well, on the 325 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: latter part of the question, the rules, as someone stated 326 00:17:55,680 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 1: to me around the league, does not dictate what pick 327 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,199 Speaker 1: you what pick you give up. So if I have 328 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 1: back to back years, let's say like the Texans and 329 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: I have multiple first round picks in twenty three and 330 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: twenty four, I can give whatever pick I want, and 331 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 1: like the Lions, they do not have to give up 332 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:18,959 Speaker 1: the Rams pick. What I read about the Dolphins situation 333 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: is you do have to have a pick in the 334 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: upcoming draft to make the trade before the draft. What 335 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: Florio wrote is you could make the trade after the draft, 336 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 1: which you know, we're gonna learn a lot in the 337 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: next week what's going on with Lamar, because if he's 338 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: just on the team, that would still be on the table. 339 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 1: Because if I was the Dolphins, I would think about 340 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: trading my two first round picks after the draft. Now 341 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: they pick up their fifth year option on Tuah. I 342 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: don't know, man, I couldn't do that based on the concussions. 343 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: I just couldn't do it. David Tepper is the second 344 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: ridgis owner in the NFL, and as a new owner 345 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: might not be as loyal to the old ways, what 346 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: is stopping him from acquiring Lamar and giving him the 347 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: guarantee he's looking for. Obviously they immediately go from the 348 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: worst best quarterback blah blah blah. Well this was obviously 349 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: between before the next time you're in the Bay this 350 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 1: is a Sandy's take and bake pizza. Check that out 351 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: if you're in the Bay area. Well, obviously they just 352 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: trade it up to the number one pick. But remember, 353 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 1: and I mentioned this earlier, they were going to trade 354 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: for Deshaun Watson until he mandated two hundred and thirty 355 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: million dollars and the Browns like he wasn't going to 356 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: do that. Like Temper's aggressive, as you see with this trade, 357 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: as you see with Christian McCaffrey trade. I do think 358 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: he's a great businessman and his understanding Like paying Deshaun 359 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: Watson two hundred and thirty million dollars, it's bad business, honestly, 360 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 1: paying Lamar Jackson two hundred and thirty million dollars. Even 361 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: if you're a Lamar Jackson fan listening to this, I 362 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,360 Speaker 1: think you kind of guy to admit that's not great 363 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 1: business or the risk on that is pretty insane. Right like, 364 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: right now, the economy is a little weird. There's no 365 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: way around it. And honestly, it could get really weird 366 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: in the next three or four months. It's what it 367 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,959 Speaker 1: feels like. Banks are going under, weird hits happening. You know, 368 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: cars are getting repoied at a super high rate. Usually 369 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: that's a teletell sign the companies are gonna keep laying 370 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: people off. I would not recommend putting a lot of 371 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: money in the stock market, but if you pick the 372 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: right couple of stocks, who knows, maybe it rips, but 373 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: it'd be pretty easy to lose right now, and Lamar 374 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: feels like a pretty fickle stock. When it's going good, 375 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: he's awesome, but he get injured. He hasn't played that 376 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: well in the playoffs. But there is some business to 377 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 1: him just on your team. If he's on your team, 378 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: there's a i don't know, just a positive vibe around 379 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: you because he's a Lamar fucking Jackson. But that goes 380 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: away fast when you don't play well or you get injured. 381 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: I'm a lifelong Browns fan who has suffered enough in 382 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 1: your eyes, What would the Browns have to do this 383 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: year to be considered a success In my eyes, they 384 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 1: need to make the playoffs and probably win a game. 385 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: I think they missed the playoffs to Stefanski gets fired. 386 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 1: Your thoughts, Well, when you pay a quarterback that much 387 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: money and now he's gonna have a full off season. 388 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: They changed their defensive staff. I think they're it's playoffs 389 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: are bust. Now you don't have to win the division 390 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: because that's clearly pretty difficult. Right, Bengals are now a powerhouse. 391 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: The Steelers are a stalwart of being consistently good. But 392 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 1: I think he got to win ten plus games. You 393 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: can't have the highest paid quarterback in the NFL. Now. 394 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: It's a weird situation because he hasn't played in a 395 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: long time and obviously last year he I mean, he 396 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: just didn't look good, but I gave him a little past. 397 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: But still, like coming into this season, he'll have played 398 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: very very limited amounts of football in what twenty four months, 399 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: even more than that thirty months, Like, he just hasn't 400 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 1: played that much football because of the injury, because of 401 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: the whatever happened in I guess he didn't get hurt, huh, 402 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 1: he played the last year for Bill O'Brien, they had 403 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: an full year, he had a great season. The next 404 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: year he demands a trade, and then he sits out 405 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: the season, and then last year he's suspended. So I 406 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,400 Speaker 1: guess it's been a year and a half of miss games. 407 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: Would he come back week eleven? But yeah, I mean 408 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: you're paying a quarterback to two hundred and thirty million. 409 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 1: I think it's playoffs are bust. Where would Kenny Pickett 410 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:25,680 Speaker 1: rank in this draft class? You're probably asking the wrong guy. Now, 411 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: he did look good towards the end, but Kenny Pickett's 412 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: Mac Jones's, you know, Kirk Cousins is the best version 413 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: of that. Like, those aren't really my style guys. I 414 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: have a lot of respect for Alex Smith, a lot 415 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,439 Speaker 1: of respect, but he's not really my type quarterback. Like 416 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 1: that mold of quarterback isn't my cup of tea. I 417 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 1: kind of like the higher end talent. I'm more of 418 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: a boomer bust guy. He went twentieth last year. Bryce 419 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: would go ahead of him. C J. Strout would go 420 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 1: ahead of him. I mean, Levis and Anthony Richson are 421 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: just in a different universe as physical talents. So at 422 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: least one of those guys would go ahead of him. Yeah, 423 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:10,479 Speaker 1: he's he's be behind those guys probably. Now, that doesn't 424 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: mean where you go in the draft, Like just because 425 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 1: he went twentieth doesn't mean like, given his situation, you know, 426 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: the Steelers are gonna always have skill guys. Their defense 427 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: is gonna be good. They already got Nigi Harrison, got 428 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: some wide receivers. Maybe draft you know another impact skill 429 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: guy this year. Like, it doesn't mean he's not gonna 430 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: be better than those guys. I see this all the time. 431 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: Where are you going? The draft is the most overrated 432 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: thing ever. We bitch and moan, like how did this 433 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: guy fall to what pick sixty? I mean so fifty 434 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: nine guys went ahead of him, Like that's not that 435 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,479 Speaker 1: doesn't mean you suck, And that doesn't mean half those 436 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: guys aren't gonna be good. Hell, you can go on 437 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 1: the third day. Think how many third day players any team? 438 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: Anyone that's listening to this, whoever your team is, the Giants, 439 00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: the Cardinals, the Cowboys. How often it's like, oh, are 440 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 1: starting corners in the fourth round? Are starting guard came 441 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:07,199 Speaker 1: in the seventh round? They're rookies? So I think some 442 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: of that stuff can be overrated. For the mail bag, 443 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: Are you a believer in Bryce Young, especially if he's 444 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: on the Texans. Will he be able to make an 445 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: impact on the league? I love him in a dome. 446 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,439 Speaker 1: I like him all. If I'm the Houston Texans, I 447 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 1: think it all worked out pretty well because, you know, 448 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: let's just say the Texans were never gonna take Sej Stroud, 449 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: So if that's who that the Carolina Panthers end up taking, 450 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: losing that game didn't hurt them. They still end up 451 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 1: getting Bryce Young, so that that move wasn't the end 452 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: of the world. Now, if they take the quarterback the 453 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: Panthers do that the Texans wanted that, that would be 454 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: a problem. But I'm a huge Bryce Young fan. He's short, 455 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 1: and that that is risky, like typically star players are 456 00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: not short. Kyler Murray, you know, his best football might 457 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: be behind him. Russell Wilson has built like a little tank, 458 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: and Russell has a better arm than Bryce. And Russell 459 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 1: was a third round pick. You know. So the stress 460 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: stresses the wrong word. The pressure that comes once you 461 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 1: get drafted really really high in any draft. That is 462 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: just like the elephant in the room that is like 463 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: this thing that just kind of hovers over your head 464 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: the rest of your career. Oh, James Wiseman, he's a 465 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: second overall pick by the Warriors. He sucked James Wise 466 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,719 Speaker 1: and second overall pick. I saw Greg Odin couldn't come 467 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: out of his house because he was so ashamed how 468 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 1: terribly he was because of his knee injuries. Think how 469 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 1: many busts over the years we've seen in like the 470 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 1: top five in the NFL. It's just it's so much 471 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: easier to be a bad player in the third round, 472 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: Like no one cares when you're a high pick. I've 473 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: been to a million Ota practices. It's the only guy 474 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: people are looking at. Where's Khalil Mack, Where's Nick Bosa, 475 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: Where's Amari Cooper? Where's this javon kinlaw mcglinchy. I've seen 476 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,479 Speaker 1: it for the last decade with the Niners and Raiders 477 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 1: going to their practice. So number one. I remember when 478 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: what was his name, Carl Joseph Reggie McKenzie drafted Carl 479 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: Joseph I think out a West Virginia. I remember standing 480 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: next to him. I was like, God, this is their 481 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: first round pick. He's really small. Jimmy Ward Buckner in Armstead. 482 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: It's the first thing you do at a practice in 483 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: shorts and T shirts is look for their first round pick, 484 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 1: and the higher that goes, the more you're like, God, 485 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: this a lot of pressure on this. I'll never forget 486 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: seeing Cleil Mack. I'm like, Jesus, guy's big God, damn. 487 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,479 Speaker 1: I remember texting a buddy on the staff, like at 488 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: the end of OTAs before they went to summer break, 489 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, what do you think of Khalil so far? 490 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: He's like best player in the team. That's usually a 491 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 1: good sign, you know, when when you draft a guy 492 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: really high and it's immediately hey, he's the best player 493 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: in the team. You know, sometimes it gets rock. You 494 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 1: remember couple years ago, Jamar Chase couldn't catch cold, So 495 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: what's fun about sports? You know? Reality TV Eagles fan 496 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: have the right to be just as excited about their 497 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 1: quarterbacks for the next fifteen years than other fan bases. 498 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts literally, what you get when you combine the 499 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:10,640 Speaker 1: leadership and intangibles of Dak with the on the fieldability 500 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: of Lamar Jackson, and that sounds like a damn good 501 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: player for years and years to come. I guess this 502 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 1: is what this guy's take on un Hurts. If Hurts 503 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: doesn't get injured this year, he's the MVP of the 504 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: league and Patrick Mahomes is unreal. But if Hurts it's 505 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 1: stayed healthy, he would have been an MVP of the league. 506 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 1: So you should be very, very excited. The only pushback 507 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: I will say, Money's not gonna face this guy because 508 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: he is locked and loaded. I do just want to 509 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,479 Speaker 1: see him do it like three straight years. Part of 510 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: being like a great player. Mahomes, he does it every 511 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: single year Rogers for ten straight years. Elite Brady Manning 512 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: Breeze every single year. That's the key. That's the hard part. Now, 513 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: I'm with you why I would bet on him the 514 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: person you bet on the guy right That to me, 515 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: I bet on the guy as much as I do 516 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 1: the traits because he is a focused cat and he 517 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: was unreal in the biggest game of his life in 518 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. But you invest, Let's say they give 519 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,719 Speaker 1: him one hundred and sixty hundred and seventy million dollars. 520 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: They does add new pressure to him. Now He's been 521 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: around big pressure his whole life. Starts at Alabama, start 522 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: transfer starts at Oklahoma comes to the Eagles, Wally pips 523 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 1: or I guess he didn't get injured, but he gets benched. 524 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: Jalen never looks back. Three years later gets him in 525 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. So he just answers the bell at 526 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: every fucking turn. But there's a difference of having a 527 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: couple of good seasons and having like an unreal career. 528 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: So I'm excited we need more good quarterbacks. He's very likable. 529 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: I'm a I'm a fan. He's convinced me and I 530 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: didn't like him at all coming out at all. Hell, 531 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: I didn't like Lamar Jackson either. He turned me. I 532 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: know this. Starting today, let's say the money's equal, they're 533 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: both making five million dollars. I would take Jalen hurstch 534 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: for the next five years in Lamar Jackson without question. 535 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: Wouldn't even had to state could be proven wrong, but 536 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: obviously I think the Eagles would too, and honestly, I 537 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: bet the Ravens would as well. Have a good weekend. 538 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: I think I'll be back. I'm coming on Colin Show 539 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: on Monday Morning. Talk soon. Peace the Volume
