Hope you had a great weekend. Everybody gangs 0:00:07.240 --> 0:00:09.480 all here ready to go on this Monday, as we 0:00:09.560 --> 0:00:12.959 always do every Monday, best and worst of the weekend. 0:00:13.520 --> 0:00:17.520 Operator Tyler standing by, dial us up a seven seven 0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:20.759 three DP show email address, DPA Dan Patrick dot com, 0:00:20.760 --> 0:00:24.360 Twitter handle a TP show and we'll have a pull question, 0:00:24.440 --> 0:00:26.400 play of the day, stat of the day. Peter King 0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:29.520 will join us coming up in a little bit. That's 0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:31.880 a little bit. He was at the Raiders camp, the 0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:35.120 Buffalo Bill's camp, and he has eighteen more stops. So 0:00:35.240 --> 0:00:38.440 we'll talk to Peter King. Lamar Jackson in the on 0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:41.640 deck circle waiting for his contract. Will it happen before 0:00:41.640 --> 0:00:45.200 the season starts, and is it more along the lines 0:00:45.280 --> 0:00:48.760 of a Deshaun Watson deal or is it going to 0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:51.239 be like Kyler Murray. Peter will join us coming up 0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:54.560 at about twenty minutes. In an hour. In twenty minutes, 0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:57.280 Charles Barkley will join us. A few things to talk 0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:01.080 to Charles about, not only the possibility of him going 0:01:01.120 --> 0:01:04.120 to the lib Tour, maybe leaving TNT to go to 0:01:04.200 --> 0:01:07.120 the Live tour, but also what's going on with the 0:01:07.240 --> 0:01:12.200 Celtics and the Nets. About an hour ago, Woach had 0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:15.880 a bomb that said, the Celtics have emerged among teams 0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:20.520 engaged in talks on a possible deal to acquire Kevin Durant. 0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:24.080 Still in the exploratory stage here, but this is what 0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:27.839 I found interesting. The Celtics were the ones who reached 0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:30.640 out to the Nets. The Nets had been reaching out, 0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:34.600 at least reportedly reaching out saying, hey, you want Kevin Durant, 0:01:34.680 --> 0:01:36.920 what are you going to give us? The Celtics were 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:41.440 proactive here. Now. I don't know if this is just 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:44.000 at the beginning part of it, it feels that way, 0:01:44.480 --> 0:01:47.119 but the Miami Heat and Phoenix Suns and the Raptors 0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:51.600 they are they're trying varying degrees of interest here in 0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:54.520 Durant to see if they can pull off a deal. Now, 0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:58.680 the possibility of a deal for Durant to Boston would 0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:03.120 include Jay and Brown, not Jason Tatum, and then there 0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:07.360 would be draft picks in their unprotected draft picks. That'd 0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.760 probably be a couple other players involved in that got 0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:13.639 to make the salaries work as well. But that it's 0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.760 about an hour ago that Woag had the bomb about 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:21.320 the possibility of the Nets and the Boston Celtics maybe 0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:24.240 pulling off a deal. Now, he did caution everybody here. 0:02:24.520 --> 0:02:27.880 He's just reporting that the Celtics have had talks with 0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:30.799 the Nets. That's it. I'm sure that the Sun's did. 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:33.600 I'm sure the Raptors have. I'm sure that the Miami 0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:37.880 Heat have. But you have details here. That's the difference 0:02:38.600 --> 0:02:43.160 that you actually have players that we know that that's 0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:45.160 the guy or those are the guys, and this is 0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:49.400 what they want. But if I'm the Boston Celtics, and yes, 0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:52.000 you want Kevin Durant, and if you could give up 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:55.120 Jalen Brown, Jalen Brown has two more years on his contract, 0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:57.960 you might lose him after two years. And if you 0:02:58.040 --> 0:03:00.080 want to throw in Grant Williams, you want to throw 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:03.800 and some draft picks. Now there's another report that said 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:06.320 that they're looking at Mark is Smart, that the Nets 0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:08.480 would like to have Jalen Brown, Mark is Smart, and 0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:12.560 maybe another player and some draft picks. If I'm the 0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:15.680 Nets that I'm trading Kevin Durant, I want to get 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:21.560 Jason Tatum. That's it. I want Jason Tatum. You know, 0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:26.680 we the Nets may go hey, you know what we're 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:30.200 not in an advantageous situation here, Well you are. You 0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:33.600 got Kevin Durant under contract, Just keep them, that's all. 0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:36.600 How badly does he one out? I also find it 0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:40.400 interesting ironic as they might say that here's Kevin Durant 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:43.640 maybe leaving the Nets, leaving Kyrie behind to go to 0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:47.040 the Celtics, and then some of the Celtics who played 0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:50.160 with Kyrie would then be going to the Nets to 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:54.120 play with Kyrie. That's pretty good, that's kind of delicious there. 0:03:54.560 --> 0:04:00.360 But right now, just the exploratory, the beginning, the eonic 0:04:00.480 --> 0:04:05.160 stages of maybe a trade here. But if I start 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:07.360 to look at this and I go, Okay, who am 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:10.960 I getting? Who am I building around? That's if I 0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:12.880 look at it from the Nets, because we always look 0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:15.320 at it from the other side of things. Where you go, boy, 0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:18.599 the Celtics could get Kevin Durant, Okay, what DoD the 0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:21.960 Nets get in return? Because Katie's going to go there. 0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:27.440 Jaylen Brown, okay, good player, And if the Celtics had 0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:29.560 won the title, might have been the MVP in the 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:36.320 finals was far better than Jason Tatum. You got Marcus 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:39.760 Smart kind of figured out his role. You brought in 0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:43.200 Malcolm Brogden to Boston, so you do have the possibility 0:04:43.200 --> 0:04:46.040 of Malcolm Brogden being your starting point guard not coming 0:04:46.080 --> 0:04:49.200 off the bench. You want to throw in a big man, 0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:54.040 You want to throw in somebody defensive minded, Robert Williams, 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:57.640 I mean, throw in whoever and some draft picks there. 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:03.960 If I'm the Nets, I need a little bit more there. 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:07.839 But if I'm the Celtics, do I do it? Do 0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:18.400 I give up Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, Robert Williams. Here's 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:21.000 the other part is if you're involved in the trade talks, 0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:24.000 like Jaylen Brown is probably going, oh, should I take 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:27.839 this as a compliment that it's me for Kevin Durant 0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:32.280 sort of? Or does he go I'm not staying here 0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:34.800 no matter what. If I don't get traded, I'm not 0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:38.760 staying here. You know you don't value me. I was 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.520 our best player in the NBA Finals. Now you want 0:05:41.520 --> 0:05:44.080 to send me to the Nets for Kevin Durant. But 0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:46.400 let's say you look at it as three year window, 0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:49.960 because that's how I would look at this. I'm gonna 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:56.239 get Kevin Durant for three years. Do I say that's 0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:59.760 enough for three years? Because I got I got the 0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:03.960 you know, the ages of these players with the Celtics. 0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:06.839 If I factor that in there, they're all young. And 0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:09.359 if I could have Jalen Brown, who I'd love to 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:13.240 see what he does Outside of Jason Tatum, You've got 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:19.080 a twenty five year old potential superstar and maybe benefited 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:24.680 by being you know, a pippinto Tatum's Jordan, but Tatum's 0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:31.279 twenty four. Tatum is the next Kevin Durant. Perhaps that's 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:34.280 where I would still say, look, we'll trade you a KD, 0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:37.680 but we want Jason Tatum back. We'll take less in return, 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:42.440 But I'm going to guess that conversation doesn't last that long. 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:46.400 Let you put KD in there with Jason Tatum and 0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:49.920 then surround him with whatever you have left over. And 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:53.800 I was curious what DraftKings would have. Now here's the potential. 0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:57.120 Now this is based off the potential for a trade 0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:01.239 title odds you've shifted. The Celtics are an even larger 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:04.880 favorite to win next year's NBA title. So on the 0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:08.240 twelfth of this month, the Celtics were plus five fifty 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:12.480 to win it all. Boston's now plus five hundred, the 0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:17.760 second best odds Clippers and the Warriors at plus six hundred. Well, 0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:21.360 if you're Boston and right now you're the favorites to 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:25.440 win the NBA title, why do you trade for Kevin Durant. 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:31.000 You got it, you got Tatum, you got Brown, Brogden 0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:34.320 came in, Marcus Smart. I think I got a good team, 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:41.080 got a good coach. I would stand Pat. I mean, 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:44.000 Katie is great to have, wonderful player, one of the 0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:46.840 great players of all time. I don't want to give 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:50.240 up too much to get him, and then maybe you 0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:53.880 don't have the depth to win a championship here. And 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:57.720 Golden Stage certainly won because of the depth that they 0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:01.920 had and they didn't even play Aminga and Wiseman was injured. 0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:06.640 But having Wiggins in pool to help out with Steph 0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:10.520 Curry and Draymond Green and Clay Thompson, I mean, that's 0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:13.640 why they won the title. And it feels like it's 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:18.480 two really good players, superstars, and then depth because sometimes 0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:21.040 you go for the big three. I would stay with 0:08:21.160 --> 0:08:23.880 the you know, the big two, and then have depth there. 0:08:24.000 --> 0:08:26.960 If I'm Boston, as much as you know you would 0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:30.400 love to have kad I'd rather keep Jalen Brown and 0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:34.480 Jason Tatum together unless they don't like each other, unless 0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:37.960 their games are very very similar, and then you think 0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:40.400 you got to do something different. But I don't know 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:43.880 what it's gonna mean for Katie and Jason Tatum getting 0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:49.360 along out there playing the same position. Yeah, Mark, Yeah, 0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:51.640 I'm with you, And I think that it's going to 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:53.400 be so awkward if none of this happens and you 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.280 go back to training camp and Brad Stevens like, Hey, Jalen, 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.360 how's it going? What do you mean, how's it going? 0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:02.320 How is your off season? How was your all season? Bread? Disappointed? 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:08.280 I'm sure. Yeah. But I if I'm the Nets, I 0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:12.520 want Jason Tatum. If I'm the Celtics, I would stand pat. 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:17.560 I would I know that sounds crazy to turn down 0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:20.760 Kevin Durant, but what do I give up in return? 0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:24.920 And do I have enough to win a championship? Yeah, Pollie. 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:27.880 According to Sham Sharania from The Athletic an hour ago, 0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:31.080 he reported the Boston Celtics offered Jaylen Brown for Durant 0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:33.320 in that package, and the Nets are the ones who 0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:35.880 turned it down. As of right now, the Nets turned 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:40.080 it down, so the Celtics wanted it the Celtics want Yeah, 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:42.840 they want Katie, but they they're giving up Jaylen Brown. Yes, yeah, 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:45.360 but I'm saying that officially the Nets passed on that 0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:47.840 deal an hour ago, according to the Athletic. Yeah, and 0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:50.960 I understand it if I can keep Jason Tatum and 0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:55.080 then I got Durant. Sure, Now is Marcus smart in? 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:56.959 There is Robert Wait. I mean, I don't know who 0:09:57.000 --> 0:09:58.880 else is going to be thrown in there, but right 0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:01.440 now it's just this dart And of course it's on 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:04.360 a Monday, and it's early, so everybody's gonna fly with 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:10.440 this today discussion. It just talks. Okay, it's nothing. I 0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:12.839 don't know how serious it is. It might be one 0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:16.440 of those where you know, I you know, growing up, 0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:18.880 I remember calling girls to go out on a date. 0:10:18.920 --> 0:10:20.800 We never went out on a date, but we did 0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:23.120 talk about maybe going out on a date. I feel 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:29.960 like the word exploratory. Yeah calls, they're just what are 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.880 you doing? Would you want to go to the football game. 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.280 It's not like we were getting married, but that's what 0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:38.520 it feels like anything that has to do with Durant, 0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:41.760 certainly this time of the year. Then all of a sudden, 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:44.080 it's going to go from zero to sixteen.

Let's see 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:13.640 anything else that his front burners stuff. We'll talk football 0:11:13.640 --> 0:11:16.520 with Peter King coming up. Charles Barkley will stop by 0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:19.800 NFL training camps. They will all be opened by Tuesday. 0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:23.600 I still don't understand the staggered start, and shouldn't we 0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:26.200 allow the teams that aren't very good to start earlier. 0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:30.480 I gotta talk to Peter about that. David Ortiz got 0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:35.400 inducted into the Hall of Fame yesterday. I don't understand this. 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:39.200 Why not have the Hall of Fame induction ceremony in 0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:44.439 the morning, let's say, from eleven till one, ten until one, 0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:47.959 however long it last. If you have games on a 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:51.000 Sunday and there in the afternoon or in the evening, 0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:55.320 why have the Hall of Fame induction ceremonies while they're 0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:59.920 playing baseball. So when Big Poppy was being introduced yesterday, 0:11:59.800 --> 0:12:02.800 the Red Sox we're playing, how about you do this 0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:05.360 in April. How about you do this to start the season. 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:09.760 The NFL does this where you have the players who 0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:13.720 are going to be there Hall of Fame weekend in August, 0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:17.319 start the season. Have a football game there. Why not 0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:21.760 have you know, the I don't know the World Series 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:25.400 teams play the start of the season, have Hall of 0:12:25.400 --> 0:12:29.920 Fame weekend. But or right, you know, like Big Poppy 0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:33.080 being introduced, you know, giving a speech that you have 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:36.199 that on the JumboTron there at Fenway while they're taking 0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:39.440 VP that the fans who didn't go could watch it. 0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:43.440 That's all hardcore fans are going to watch the game, 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:48.640 but celebrate the game, don't. Hey, you know, we got 0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:54.400 a game going on and oh the induction ceremony. There 0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:56.400 are times when I see some things and I go, 0:12:56.679 --> 0:13:01.079 this is so obvious that maybe it's not so obbyous 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:04.160 like you're going. Doesn't that make sense? Have it in 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:07.319 the morning where it's a little cooler than staying outside 0:13:07.360 --> 0:13:12.600 where it's really hot.

Oh, they would have much rather 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:25.400 watched anything else besides the Red Sox playing baseball.

See you got a pull question 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:46.120 for us? Sure, Well, we could do one off of 0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:48.000 what you're just talking about with Kevin Durant, better duo 0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:54.440 Durant Tatum or Brown Tatum or even Kyrie Durant. Well, 0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:58.440 the Kyrie part of this is interesting too, because if 0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:04.480 you get Jayalen Brown, do I need Marcus Smart? I 0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:06.840 guess if he's going to play a true point guard? 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:09.360 And then I got Kyrie playing the two? Yeah, Seed, 0:14:09.520 --> 0:14:13.000 I just love the idea that Kevin Durant and Kyrie 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:16.000 get together in Brooklyn. Kevin Durant would then leave to 0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:19.600 go to the Celtics, where Kyrie just left because he 0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:21.320 didn't want to play with those dudes, and now he's 0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:22.720 going to end up playing with the guys with the 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:25.520 Celtics that he left originally because Kevin Durant left him 0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:32.680 eight seven seven three DP show email undress DPA Dan Patrick.

A 0:15:34.440 --> 0:15:36.840 lot of people want to talk about the possibility of 0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:40.560 a Kevin Durant trade to the Boston Celtics right now 0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:44.520 in the exploratory stages, so right, WOJ had that this morning. 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:48.640 Right now, it's just a conversation and even downplayed that. 0:15:49.040 --> 0:15:53.920 Not exactly a wog bomb, but certainly something that could 0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:57.240 potentially lead to something a little bit bigger here. But 0:15:57.720 --> 0:16:01.400 Jalen Brown's involved in it, not Jason Tatum. And if 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:04.560 I'm the NETS, I certainly want to hear Jason Tatum's name. 0:16:04.560 --> 0:16:06.960 And you're not going to H seven seven three D 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:09.520 P show.

Want to see the Raiders, want 0:16:14.560 --> 0:16:17.200 to see the Buffalo Bills. Here is a comment from 0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:20.680 Davante Adams talking about going from one Hall of Fame 0:16:20.760 --> 0:16:23.880 quarterback in Green Bay to a Hall of Fame quarterback 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:27.320 with the Raiders. I mean, anytime you change quarterbacks from 0:16:27.400 --> 0:16:29.640 you know, hall of Famer to Hall of Famer you go, 0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:32.880 you know, Stabler to rich Gannon or whoever you go to. 0:16:32.920 --> 0:16:34.800 It's gonna be a little bit of an adjustment. And 0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:37.920 you know, both are great players and great to be around. 0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:40.640 So I'm just enjoying that process and getting better myself. 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:42.120 You're trying to do as much as I can to 0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:44.040 help these guys who go out there and win as 0:16:44.080 --> 0:16:47.760 many games and we can. That's courtesy as CBS Sports HQ. 0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:50.280 Peter King was with the Raiders, of course, the great 0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:54.080 columnists for Football Morning in America NBC Sports dot Com. 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:56.960 What'd you make of those comments that I'd like that 0:16:57.080 --> 0:17:00.760 he believes in Derek Carr but hall of Fame quarterback. 0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:06.120 I mean, you know, what's he gonna say, Go from 0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:08.840 a Hall of Fame quarterback to a nice quarterback? I mean, 0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:13.520 come on, I mean, I'll just say this, Dan, we 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:19.480 live in an age where every athlete knows that being 0:17:19.720 --> 0:17:25.040 absolutely totally honest and saying that, Hey, you know, I 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:27.959 was with one of the top ten quarterbacks of all 0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:30.920 time and Aaron Rodgers, and now I'm going to a 0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:35.240 Pro Bowl caliber quarterback. I'm really happy. I'm fortunate to 0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:37.760 be able to do it. But let's face it, Derek 0:17:37.840 --> 0:17:41.440 Carr's not Aaron Rodgers. I mean, so he can't say that. 0:17:42.240 --> 0:17:45.639 So he then has to say something that obviously is 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:48.399 a stretch, but I don't know. It goes in one 0:17:48.440 --> 0:17:51.080 ear and out the other. To me. Explain to me 0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:53.720 the love for the Raiders so far, it feels like 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:58.160 the media is on this bandwagon early. Are you buying 0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:02.240 the Raider hype? Well, well, they made the playoffs last year, 0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:08.240 and in their only playoff game last year, they were 0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:12.600 very competitive and almost beat the champion of the AFC. 0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:16.440 The eventual champion of the AFC. They added the best 0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:22.200 receiver in football and a transcendent for them anyway, Pass 0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:26.959 Rusher to team with Max Crosby. I mean, why wouldn't 0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:29.760 you be excited about the Raiders. I think the Raiders 0:18:29.920 --> 0:18:33.720 have a chance to be really good. Unfortunately, really good. 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:38.120 You also might have to overcome going two and four 0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:41.879 or three and three in your division. What's going to 0:18:41.960 --> 0:18:44.359 be really interesting? I figure there's a bunch of early 0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:47.680 games that are fun. But like Josh McDaniels told me 0:18:47.800 --> 0:18:50.359 over the weekend, he goes, you should go to that 0:18:51.040 --> 0:18:52.720 our first game of the year, And I had to 0:18:52.760 --> 0:18:56.320 think for a minute, Raiders at Chargers. He goes, that's 0:18:56.400 --> 0:19:00.520 really going to be a great game because the Chargers 0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:05.359 obviously made a lot of improvements this offseason, and the 0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:09.399 Raiders made improvements this offseason. So every team in that 0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:11.520 division is going to be better. So even if the 0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:15.480 Raiders are better, it doesn't necessarily mean they're even going 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:17.560 to be a playoff team. But I like what I 0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:20.360 saw when I saw him this weekend. But you talk 0:19:20.400 --> 0:19:23.200 about teams getting better, did the Chiefs get better? No, 0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:26.760 they didn't. They're the one, but they've won the division 0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:30.200 six years in a row, so you know, somebody is 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:33.080 still going to have to knock off the King anytime. 0:19:33.320 --> 0:19:37.880 You have Patrick Mahomes and Kelsey and obviously at very 0:19:38.040 --> 0:19:44.320 diminished receiver corps. But but you know, Juju Smith, Schuster 0:19:45.080 --> 0:19:47.240 and this rookie sky More I think is going to 0:19:47.280 --> 0:19:51.160 be an impact player. And we'll see about Marquees Valdis Scandling, 0:19:51.880 --> 0:19:54.920 but they're going to be good enough on offense. It's 0:19:54.960 --> 0:19:58.960 like everybody's saying, well, you know, the Packers without DeVante Adams, 0:19:58.960 --> 0:20:00.800 they are not going to be as good because Aaron 0:20:00.880 --> 0:20:04.639 Rodgers always figured this stuff out. Yes, he does. So. 0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:07.800 When I did my thirty two teams thirty two questions 0:20:07.840 --> 0:20:10.679 in the column today, I wrote about the Packers special 0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:14.760 teams and Rich Bisaccia coming in to me, that's the 0:20:14.920 --> 0:20:18.399 biggest thing that they have to deal with. They lost 0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:23.440 a playoff game to a weak offensive team in San 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:27.440 Francisco at home. They lost it because they couldn't play 0:20:27.520 --> 0:20:31.040 special teams. So that to me is a bigger question 0:20:31.200 --> 0:20:34.040 right now in Green Bay because Aaron Rodgers always figures 0:20:34.080 --> 0:20:40.760 it out. Deebo Samuel situation kind of quiet. I don't know, Dan, 0:20:41.240 --> 0:20:44.960 it strikes me that John Lynch is really going to 0:20:45.040 --> 0:20:48.400 try to get something done under the radar to try 0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:52.040 to keep Deebo Samuel happy. Look in the past, some 0:20:52.320 --> 0:20:56.160 players in search of a new contract report to training camp, 0:20:56.280 --> 0:20:59.920 don't practice and just it go to all the media 0:21:00.440 --> 0:21:04.439 and so to not have a war with that player, 0:21:04.680 --> 0:21:07.119 a lot of times the team just grits his teeth 0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:10.000 and says, Okay, just come to meetings and stay here 0:21:10.040 --> 0:21:12.200 and we won't find you. I don't know if that's 0:21:12.240 --> 0:21:15.240 what Deebo Samuel is going to do or not. If 0:21:15.280 --> 0:21:20.520 you're Lamar Jackson's camp, what happens do you is there 0:21:20.560 --> 0:21:23.000 an initiative on your part? Are you waiting for the 0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:27.400 Ravens to act on a contract extension? You know, Dan, 0:21:27.480 --> 0:21:29.560 I've said all along that to me, I'd like to 0:21:29.600 --> 0:21:33.879 see Lamar Jackson play well in the postseason before paying 0:21:33.960 --> 0:21:38.760 him more money than Patrick Mahomes. To me, that's and 0:21:38.880 --> 0:21:42.119 I still feel that way. He's played four playoff games. 0:21:42.560 --> 0:21:45.080 He has not played well in any one of those 0:21:45.200 --> 0:21:49.200 four games. And you know you're not signing a guy 0:21:49.320 --> 0:21:53.280 for the long term because he can play well in October. 0:21:53.440 --> 0:21:55.480 You think you've signed him because you think he can 0:21:55.600 --> 0:21:59.080 lead you to a championship. Now, it could be that 0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:02.440 the Ravens might say, Okay, we'll risk it. We'll sign 0:22:02.560 --> 0:22:05.639 him for four years, forty seven million year or whatever 0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:09.359 it is, because if he does win a Super Bowl 0:22:10.200 --> 0:22:12.919 or plays great in the playoffs, then all of a sudden, 0:22:13.200 --> 0:22:16.440 it's a Flacco situation. We don't even remember this, we 0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:20.000 didn't even think about this, but one decade ago, Joe 0:22:20.080 --> 0:22:25.600 Flacco was the first twenty million dollar player in NFL history. 0:22:26.080 --> 0:22:29.159 It seems almost laughable to think about that now, but 0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:31.680 he's the first twenty million dollar player in history because 0:22:31.680 --> 0:22:33.720 he bet on himself and he said, I'm going to 0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:35.840 win the Super Bowl next year, be a free agent, 0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:37.800 and they're gonna have to break the bank for me. 0:22:37.920 --> 0:22:40.600 That's what they did. If I were Jackson, I wouldn't 0:22:40.600 --> 0:22:44.280 mind doing that. If I gave you a five year 0:22:44.400 --> 0:22:47.399 contract to give to either Kyler or Lamar, you had 0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:51.320 to give it to one one of those two, I'd 0:22:51.400 --> 0:22:55.000 probably give it to Lamar because I just, you know, 0:22:55.119 --> 0:22:58.240 there's something about Kyler that worries me a bit. You know, 0:22:58.320 --> 0:23:02.960 he's a small human being relatively speaking, Not that you know, 0:23:03.119 --> 0:23:07.520 Lamar Jackson is a is a sequoia. But you know, 0:23:08.920 --> 0:23:12.600 Kyler Murray is gonna you know, part of his game 0:23:12.920 --> 0:23:15.280 is his legs, as is you know, the same thing 0:23:15.359 --> 0:23:20.000 with Jackson. But I just I fear Kyler Murray. I 0:23:20.080 --> 0:23:22.679 don't think they're very different in terms of what they 0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:27.000 can produce over the course of a season. But I 0:23:27.560 --> 0:23:31.000 worry a little bit about Murray staying healthy. We're talking 0:23:31.040 --> 0:23:34.680 to Peter King Football Morning, an America economist and course 0:23:34.760 --> 0:23:39.000 contributor with NBC Sports. The market for Jimmy Garoppolo is what. 0:23:40.560 --> 0:23:44.240 I don't know. I don't I really don't know. I mean, 0:23:45.400 --> 0:23:48.200 I keep thinking that he'll end up in Seattle, and 0:23:48.359 --> 0:23:52.000 maybe he will. But the smartest thing for Jimmy Garoppolo 0:23:52.160 --> 0:23:54.960 to do is right now to just tell the forty 0:23:55.040 --> 0:23:58.399
