Circle gets a square Chris, the webmasters in 31 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: the booth. Because Matt Morrell is in a well deserved vacation. 32 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: I hope he didn't go to Afghanistan. It doesn't sound 33 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: like he's enjoying it though. I just saw him tweet 34 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: something that said he didn't go back to the minutes 35 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: to work. Think some things out. It's three hours ago. 36 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: He says. I hate that I'm on vacation with you 37 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: who he was a marine. I hope he didn't go 38 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: back to I don't know. I think he's okay though 39 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: he's near a pool. Now we're tracking him. He's he's 40 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: reading a Daredevil comic by the pool. He's a Dubaie. Good. Yeah, 41 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: turn turn your microphone on, Evan, Chris make Audrey, says Fred, Fred, 42 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: Please teach Duce how to read emails. Thursday's show was 43 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: a meltdown for some reason. Mike can't host and read 44 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,119 Speaker 1: at the same time. When he does read, it's very 45 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: fast and breathy, sometimes with a nervous laugh. He's skimming 46 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: the content like a speed reader and not even saying 47 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: all the printed words. Then he immediately answers and gives 48 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: his opinions first, rather than letting the group chime in. 49 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: He could catch his breath and then at his thoughts. 50 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: It's like a hyper puppy who can't calm down around 51 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: stranger's type of feeling. Who's this? This is? Are for 52 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: new Hamshire? Go back. I can listen and you'll know 53 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: immediately what I mean. Other than this issue, Mike has 54 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: been a great addition. I think Audio's totally right, but 55 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: she's now my enemies. Listening. I'm looking forward to another 56 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: round of epic draft shows. Love the show, loyal twelve 57 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: year listener. That's good. She's right. I appreciate the constructive criticism, 58 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: so I will I will take that in mind. I 59 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: certainly do well because sometimes you start to read, you're like, 60 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: it's a dead moment, and you're like, I better read 61 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: an email. And you start to read an email, you're like, 62 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: there's nothing in this email, and then you have to 63 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: you know, tack and well. As much as I like 64 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: to make fun of Fred when he's not paying attention 65 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: to what we're saying, he's generally reading the email setting 66 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: up the next one. Yeah, he's facilitating like a ball, 67 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: like a ball distributor. You know, I got but a 68 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: little inside baseball. We've been busy this week filming something 69 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: really special for the Patriots schedule release in May. I 70 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: don't know what we can say and not say, but 71 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: let's just say, let's not say too much. I think 72 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: that's what you can say. Let's just say. Deuce and 73 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: his director chair with sunglasses has been the highlights. I 74 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: wasn't even the director. I just sat there and looked 75 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: like the director doing nothing. Just no, but he oh, no, 76 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: I I pulled I pulled up yesterday, and you were 77 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: you were in charge of the whole the whole thing. 78 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: Definitely not. But it was so funny because Duce we're outside. 79 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: Deuce has got the hoodie on and the baseball cap, glasses, 80 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: and he's looking at the monitor at the at the 81 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: scene in his little director and he looked like, you know, 82 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: you know Martin Scorsese on sets. Yeah, that's right, Yeah, 83 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: I need more. It was great, it's been good. It's 84 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 1: been good. Excited to see what comes out of it. 85 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: You'll see it in a couple of months. Yeah, certain, 86 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: Wait a couple of months, about a month, About a month? Yeah, 87 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: I like you better hurry. I don't know what time. 88 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Yeah, No, it's uh, 89 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: it's probably our most ambitious effort yet. Yeah, a lot 90 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: of moving pieces, a lot of patriots, former patriots, current 91 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: future patriots. Come on, man, you're you're like the people 92 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: who like look at the spoilers online. Yeah, what do 93 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: you tell me? What's going on in session? That's what's 94 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: going to happen to them. He already caught that spoiler. 95 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: He's the kid that you don't tell about the surprise 96 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: party because he's just gonna ruin the surprise. Probably probably 97 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: they don't want me anywhere near this shoot. I don't 98 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: even know where it is. I don't know the address. 99 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: I'm just they told me, Oh, we don't need you. 100 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: Just just go be on radio next week. You're fine, person. 101 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: You stick to the draft. Yeah, stick to the draft. 102 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 1: I know your strains, all right, So what do we 103 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: got going here? Everybody? I feel like we're in like 104 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: the draft. It's like slowdown period where everything just kind 105 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: of like slows down a little bit. It's quiet. There 106 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: aren't really a lot of personnel moves. OBJ. We could 107 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: talk about that one, but it just feels like silly season. 108 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: This is where rumors just go and that's all you're 109 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 1: kind of hearing. There's not a lot of like nobody's 110 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: really adding to the team right now. Yeah, we're at 111 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: that point where it's like, you know, twenty seven teams 112 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: they're interested in trading up with Arizona to get, you know, 113 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: to their spot. You know, that kind of silly season stuff. 114 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 1: I'm sure some of it is based in reality, but 115 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: I think it's really gonna come down to four for 116 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: those teams, like three, four, you know, five, who feels 117 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: strongly enough about one of the quarterbacks to take them 118 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: one of the other quarterbacks because it certainly looks like 119 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: Bryce Young is going to go one to Carolina. That's 120 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: I know. Peter King kind of indicated that, Albert Brier 121 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: kind of indicated that seems to be some traction for 122 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: Young going to Carolina where Stroud comes. But then does 123 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: Indie Indians at four? I think, yeah, do they feel 124 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 1: strongly about will levis right? Or stronger class than last 125 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: year in terms of quarterbacks? Yeah, about the year before. No, 126 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: about equal, I would say, but next year, but there's 127 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 1: no Trevor Lawrence in this next year is the oh no, no, 128 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: not like not a profile of that kind of guy, 129 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: because these like I mean, obviously Bryce Young is so small, yep, 130 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: so it's it's it's a lot different. But I don't 131 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: think this is as good as that class, even even 132 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 1: though that class has kind of been man well, yeah, 133 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: Lawrence took a while, but he's cut up going. But 134 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: based on coming out, like, yeah, yeah, I think what 135 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: we thought of those five guys as as opposed I think, 136 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: and I guess I'm what I'm getting to is I 137 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: think these guys are getting a little inflated. They always do. Yeah, 138 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: you know, well, well sometimes it's you know, it's deserveful. 139 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Zach Wilson got into the top three of 140 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: the draft all because of what happened after the season, 141 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: you know, like, all because he looked good throwing the football. 142 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: In short, So I think that this happens a lot. 143 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: But I think this class, more than maybe any other 144 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: class in recent memory, has had some guys that performed 145 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: well actually on tape, not just in the combine and 146 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: at Pro days and things like that. They have really 147 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: good film, all four of us of Levis, Richardson, Stroud, 148 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: and Young. Who has the biggest upside Richardson not Yeah, easily? 149 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: Why because he's most athletic. He's Cam Newton. Yeah, he's 150 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: in a good way though, Yeah, prime Cam. But Cam 151 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: Newton was better in college than Richardson, is right, But 152 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: Evan's right in terms of upside, that's potential. Yeah, yeah, 153 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: highest ceiling. I agree with Evan. Is it fair though 154 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: to compare him to Cam Newton? Well, you're asking me. 155 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: I gave you a ceiling comparison. If it works, it's 156 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: Cam Newton. Cam Newton's floor was probably a lot higher 157 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: than Anthony Richardson. Yeah, yeah, right, correct, I guess that's 158 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: how I look at it. Yeah, Levis has a good arm, 159 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: but not accurate, you know, not as mobile as Richardson. Yeah. 160 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 1: His his twenty twenty two film is awful. Yeah, I'm 161 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: just gonna have some decisions problems with decisions that ye 162 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: times for Levis and then you know young like I 163 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: want to like him, but he's so small, you know, 164 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: he's small. He's not Kyler Murray small though he's he's 165 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: six feet tall, he is. Is he as fast as Murray? No, 166 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: but he's a better pure passer in the pocket than 167 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: Murray is. He's better, like feel for just innate quarterbacking. Yeah, 168 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: then Kyler did. Kyler was an athlete. Is there a 169 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 1: chance CJ. Stroud is the first quarterback picked? Sure? I 170 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: was listening to that. I feel like this morning when 171 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: I was working out, not trying to plug that in 172 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: there they were they were saying, they were saying that 173 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: it could be like, you know, a coin flip of 174 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: who was. Yeah, it's going to be a tough like 175 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: and everyone's mock drafts. They've been flipping back and forth, 176 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: back and forth, back and forth. So should be interesting, 177 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: but I think just adds so much interest to the 178 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: draft now with how important quarterbacks have always been important, 179 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: but it just feels like there's so much put on 180 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 1: getting that guy now, and with four guys like this 181 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: that I mean, I don't know if you want to 182 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 1: count Levis in that group, but it just it feels 183 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: like there's gonna be a lot of jockey and going on, Like, 184 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: you know, right now, I'm sure that you know what 185 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: are team's gonna do, Like if a team was just 186 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: as absolutely in love with CJ. Strout, you know what 187 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: are they willing to give up to get him? I 188 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: I just think the value of quarterbacks now and how 189 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: explicit it is within the league, it just seems to 190 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: add this whole level of drama. It didn't exist last 191 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: year where it wasn't this quarterback class. You know, it's 192 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: now it's what's gonna happen, Who's gonna trade up, who's 193 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: gonna you know? I think we know probably won, but 194 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: after that it could get interesting. I think it's also 195 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 1: once you get past Strout and young Levis and Richardson 196 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: are high variance prospects. So if you're a team like 197 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: the Cold Set four. Are you taking that risk that 198 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: the floor is on the ground for those two guys 199 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: versus Strout and Young who are as high a floor 200 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: prospects as maybe you're gonna have over the next couple 201 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: of years. I would say, I mean, Caleb Williams, I 202 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: think is gonna be a Trevor Lawrence type of prospect 203 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: next year. And May the kid from UNC is pretty 204 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: good too. But I think that those two guys in 205 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: terms of floor are as high a floor prospects as 206 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: we've seen in the last couple of years. And if 207 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: you're Indie at four, or if you're the Raiders, or 208 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: if you're Seattle and you're trying to head your bets 209 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: behind your veterans or maybe look for longer term answers, 210 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: are you okay with a potential huge bus factor with 211 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: Bot that could be bad for the Patriots if if 212 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,559 Speaker 1: that ends up happening, because then those two guys start 213 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: to fall. Well, that's what my next question was, Any 214 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: chance that all four go before the Patriots pick, which 215 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: then would be good for them. I think there's a 216 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:28,119 Speaker 1: chance of that. But that's why like the Indie Seattle 217 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: four or five thing, that Evan just mentioned, like indies 218 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: waited and waited and waited. Right now, you're gonna you're 219 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 1: gonna end up picking will Levis. That's the guy you 220 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: were waiting for. Yeah, I don't think they're gonna take 221 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: a quarterback. I know a lot of people don't even 222 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: you know, I don't even convince that Houston's going to 223 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: do it. And Houston is right there, you know, can 224 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: take Stroud or Young, whoever's available. That's what's different about 225 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: this class too than two years ago, is that you 226 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: don't really have the handful of elite receivers to maybe 227 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: TAC two. If you can't get the quarterback, you can 228 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: get Jamison Williams, you know, you can get Wilson like that. 229 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: You don't really have those guys. And if you if 230 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: you don't get a quarterback, you're not gonna be able 231 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: to get that exciting kind of piece like you might 232 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: have to All right, well we got to go to 233 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: a tackle now where I mean, you know there are 234 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 1: defensive ends up there too that you might bring a 235 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: little juice. But I just I think I look increasingly 236 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: more about the draft somewhat through the prism of needing 237 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: to generate excitement and to you know, to get your 238 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: fans on board and to put butts in training camp 239 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: seats and those kind of things. It's just it's it's 240 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: an interesting mix this year where you don't really have 241 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: those wide receivers to kind of complement this quarterback group. Yeah, 242 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: the strength of this draft classes, as your analogy is 243 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: putting the wheels on the tires. Right edge rusher's tackles, 244 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 1: tight ends, corners like these are not necessarily the positions 245 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: that put training camp butts in the seats as as 246 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: you're putting it. But there are positions that you look 247 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: back on and you're like, oh, we have a really 248 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: solid left tackle that now we're talking about second contracts 249 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: or Paris Johnson and it's this is going to be 250 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 1: a Matt White situation where he's here for ten years. 251 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 1: You know, those guys are important too. It's funny you 252 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 1: say that, though I haven't because, like I mean, we 253 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: had Cold Strange last year that was a loaded pick 254 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: just because of where he was selected. And but I 255 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: think even if they had taken any guard at that point, 256 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: you know, it would have been a similar just kind 257 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: of lack of energy around the pick. But people are saying, now, 258 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: I understand that left tackle is a need, and I'm 259 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: okay if they take Scronsky Paris Johnson. But I also 260 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: wonder that there's still gonna be a significant contingent of 261 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: Patriots fans that are like, oh, an offensive lineman, you 262 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: know where where it's a pick, there's no there's no 263 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: question about that, but to make it, to make it 264 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: even duller, I was reading today that a lot of 265 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: teams are thinking about moving Scronsky into guard. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 266 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 1: I mean he he could be a guard. If you 267 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: listen to the the podcast on offensive Lineman, you heard 268 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: might do so, I've heard he might be a guard, 269 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 1: debate the position flexibility of certain prospects. I'm hearing a 270 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,239 Speaker 1: lot of good things about this running back from Texas. Okay, 271 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: it sounds like Fred got the Beasts yesterday. You have 272 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: you have to listen to Thursday's show where if we 273 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: pick him at swearing and talking about snacks, you're running. 274 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: You will be upset if we pick him at fourteen. Yeah, 275 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: I don't want that at fourteen. Okay. I've gone back 276 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: and forth on it. Where is he supposed to go? Fourteen? Fourteen? 277 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: He could go, He could be you know, one of 278 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: the running back be Jean Robinson. You're talking, Yeah, he 279 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: could go in the in the first round. Absolutely if 280 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: he if this was twenty five years ago, then be 281 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: Jean Robinson be the number one over I'll pick in 282 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: the draft. Really yes, or you'd have a team to 283 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: get him. He's that good. He has the potential to 284 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: be that good. Now the draft is uncertain, So I'm 285 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: not going to sit here and say he's he's a 286 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, like I don't know, like he might be. 287 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: He might be you know, Leonard Fournette, Like I don't know, 288 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: but he's got the potential to be that good. Now 289 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: there's better than Barkley coming out. I think they're comparable. 290 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: Really yeah, if I had to like use a pro 291 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: comparison for Bijean, it would probably be no injury. But 292 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 1: what does it look like here if they took us, 293 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: what does that look like? Putting him with how they 294 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: traditionally use running backs? You know, like it's just it's hard, 295 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: Like what do you do with Romandre Stevens, Like what 296 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: do you do Pierre Strong? What do you do with 297 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: Kevin Harris? All those guys just out now, Like it's 298 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: just that's what I like. I mean, Kenny, you know, Mike, 299 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: I mean, like, if if this guy's as good as 300 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: Evan says he is, I'm not worried about Kevin Harris 301 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: or Pierre Strong. What are you worried Romandre? A little bit? 302 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: Are you worried that they're not going to play him 303 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: enough to really work together to that ceiling? You know? 304 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: That's that's so they can't work together, which I think 305 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: is the biggest reason why I'm against it, because they're 306 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: the same They're the same player, they're they're you know, 307 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: it's it's the biggest issue that I have with it 308 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: is Romandre went for what seventeen hundred scrimmage yards last year? 309 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: How much better can you really be? Like he went 310 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: for seventeen hundred scrimmage yards in an offense that we 311 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: all agree was completely broken. Well, okay, but here you go. 312 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: So he yes, he did seventeen hundred scrimmage yards. But 313 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: it's not the question of how much can the running 314 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: back be, it's how much better can the offense be? Right? 315 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: You know, I just don't know. I don't know how 316 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: based off of everything that we know about running backs, 317 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: I don't know how much better be Jean Robinson really 318 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: makes you He's an unbelievably talented player. And this is 319 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: where you know, my my draft nerd me and then 320 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: like my, you know, the other side of me get 321 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: into into conflict because I can he's probably the best 322 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: player in the draft, but he's also a running back, 323 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: and you have to factor in that you pretty much 324 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: are set there. If the season were to start tomorrow, 325 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: you'd be have a really good running back room. And 326 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: then you also have to look at just the positional 327 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: value overall of a running back, so you're more you're 328 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: a need over best guy available person. I think that 329 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: teams lie to you. That's that they take the best 330 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 1: player available. I think what they do is they try 331 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 1: to find the sweet spot of the best player available 332 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: being a position of need, like the Patriots last year 333 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: when they traded down and took a guard. So Bijean 334 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: Robinson is you cannot make the argument that he's a need. 335 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: He's there's there's no side of it that makes him 336 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: a need for the Patriots. But he's probably going to 337 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: be the most talented player on the board if they 338 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 1: pick at fourteen. So I mean you could argue that's 339 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 1: one of the least needy positions. I cannot argue that 340 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: I would agree with that. Yeah, if you tried to argue, 341 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,439 Speaker 1: I would say, I'm not arguing that would be truly a. 342 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,719 Speaker 1: You know, we think he's just so much better. If 343 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: he's just that much better, you can't pass on him. 344 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: We got again now. I just think that the NFL 345 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 1: was trending towards running a triple option. Then yes, drapped him. 346 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: But no, wow, no love, I mean, she got it, 347 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,040 Speaker 1: she nailed it. Yeah, I mean that's usually how I 348 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: the nerd in me usually feels that way. I think 349 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: running backs are very, very replaceable. I think here they've 350 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,640 Speaker 1: shown that the running backs are very replaceable. It's really 351 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 1: helped their offense. I just I think if you have 352 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: a guy, it's done very well for them over the years. Yeah, 353 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 1: I'm talking about recently. If you're who was the best 354 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: player last year? The running back, every offense running back 355 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,199 Speaker 1: you're drafted before that, every offense has a best player. 356 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean the offense, but but my point is 357 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: the philosophy of treating running backs like old socks and 358 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: just going on to the next one. YEA worked for 359 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: them even last year with no offense. They had Damian 360 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: Harris as a third round pick four years ago. Yeah, 361 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: they took another one in the third round two years later, 362 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: who was just as good, if not better. Well, you 363 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: replace the position, but that offense got worse, but not 364 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: because of that. I'm not saying it that was big, 365 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: but I'm saying if you haven't. I think if you 366 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: have a generational talent at any position on offense, it's 367 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,199 Speaker 1: gonna make your offense better. Yeah. I'm with Evan, like, 368 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,479 Speaker 1: has the Giant's offense gotten better? Well, he's so in 369 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: and out. I mean, was Carolina's offense better with McCaffrey, Like, yes, No, 370 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: it wasn't. They couldn't move the ball. Yeah, Now, it 371 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: wasn't Christian McCaffrey's fault that they couldn't move the ball. 372 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 1: He's an excellent player. Yeah, that's exactly. You put him 373 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: on San Francisco and boy and their offense was exactly 374 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: the same. He started producing immediately because he's a really 375 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 1: good player. Friend, just like George Kittles and Deepo samuel Is, 376 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: those guys continue to produce like they always do. When 377 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 1: I think what you've seen and it is that if 378 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: you make the running back like in San Francisco is 379 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 1: a perfect example. When the running back is the cherry 380 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: on top, that's a different conversation than our entire offense 381 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: is now going to run through this player, and just 382 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 1: the efficiency of it just doesn't line up with the data. 383 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: Like the data to suggests that teams that are built 384 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: that way are not only just worse than teams that 385 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: are built to pass the football, but also just have 386 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 1: a particular ceiling offensively. And I think a great example 387 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: would be like the Tennessee Titans, Like that would be 388 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 1: what prime Derrick Henry Tennessee is what you're hoping that 389 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: you would be if your whole thing is built through 390 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: And are you saying that by taking any running back 391 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: at fourteen in the first round, you have to build 392 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: your offense around him? Now now you're obligated because also 393 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: they're going to build it around I'm just saying, like, 394 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 1: can can you know I don't want to call it wasting, 395 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: but let's use that word wasting a first round pick 396 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: on a running back? Can you still be a passing 397 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 1: offense to who? Like, if you're gonna be a passing offense, 398 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 1: you're gonna you have to get a pass catcher. You know, 399 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: let's just say that, you know, you believe the pundits 400 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: and these wide receivers in this class aren't first round worthy. 401 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: So you pick a wide receiver in the second round, 402 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: you know, and you and you still say, you know, 403 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 1: with Mike Kasicki and everybody else that we're gonna pass first. 404 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: But we've got this guy that the other team has 405 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,239 Speaker 1: to honor and it's going to help our offense. I 406 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: think we've got Romond. But now if you say, if 407 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 1: you were the Bills at fourteen, be Jean Robinson on 408 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 1: their offense with what they already have with wide receivers, 409 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: that makes sense. And so for them, you're saying you'd 410 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: be okay to take him in the first round. They're 411 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: also picking eight. Yeah. Yeah, So I mean that's a 412 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: little different. That's like Sony Michelle Yah yeah. I mean 413 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: at the end of the first round. That's such a 414 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 1: great points. I was just gonna say that the biggest 415 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: thing that turns me away from this whole conversation is 416 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: the fact that this reported that the Patriots are intrigued 417 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: by him, which just seems like why would that get out? 418 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 1: Like everybody, Yeah, I'm not every team. Every team wants 419 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: everything out there, they want all everything out there. We're 420 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 1: interested in everybody, you know, Yeah, every team is intrigued 421 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: by him. He's the best player in the draft. Like 422 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: if you're if you're watching any of these guys, and 423 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: you're not, and you don't watch Bijean Robinson, you're like, 424 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: holy crap. He forced one hundred and four miss tackles 425 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: last year at Texas. One hundred and four, Like that's insane. 426 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: I'm interested to see how that trans can catch the ball. 427 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'm interested to see how that translates over 428 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: just because Big twelve defense is trash, Like you don't 429 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: play defense, you play offense. If you look at those 430 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 1: scores in all the Big twelve games and fairness, defense 431 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: is trash horrible like Baylor, West Virginia, Texas. Those scores 432 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: are like sixty and the fifties, Like that's not normal. 433 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: The one hesitation that I did have it was against Alabama, 434 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 1: which is the best team that he played last year. 435 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: They were he was twenty one for seventy or something 436 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: like that. So that that's in Alabama wasn't even great 437 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 1: defensive my last year, right, not Alabama greet their offensive line. Texas' 438 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 1: offensive line got dominated at the point of attack, and 439 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: even a running back as good as Bijean Robinson can't 440 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 1: run through three people at the line of scrimmage. And 441 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: he didn't have the best game. Now, he did catch, 442 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: you know, three passes for like seventy yards on top 443 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: of the seventy one yards that he rushed for. But 444 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: one of those things with UM with Robinson, and I understand, like, 445 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: I think he's a really good player. I'm not telling 446 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: you say Quon Barkley stunk coming out or Christian mckett. 447 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 1: Those guys are really really good players, and they're good 448 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: NFL players when they're healthy. Um, I hate the notion of, 449 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: you know, why not just you know, pass on Bijon 450 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: Robinson a way to round or two. And but in 451 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: that case we're a running back, I would pass on 452 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: Bijean Robinson. And you know, if I really needed a 453 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: running back, take Jamir Gibbs somewhere later in the dress, 454 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 1: you know or whatever. I don't think the running back 455 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: is a need. I'm with Evan. I think it's probably 456 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 1: if it's not the least need, you know, the smallest 457 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: need on the on the roster, it's it's in a 458 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: oh yeah, next one up. No, I agree. I'm just 459 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 1: I'm playing devil's advocate here, trying to, you know, if 460 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: there's any opening there for taking him. If we have 461 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 1: Stevenson that you feel good about, you know, and Robinson 462 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: yeah strong, Kevin Harris, and then I don't know where 463 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:14,239 Speaker 1: to sort of slot in Tie Montgomery. There's a lot 464 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: of teams that would say that's a that's a pretty 465 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: good wide receiver running back room, Like, why do I 466 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: need to draft one one day one or even even 467 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: early day two. Yeah, that's why I think Gibbs was. 468 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: I mean, somebody that Evan and I, you know, talked 469 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 1: about just coming from Alabama, a little bit more of 470 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 1: that threat in the passing game. That's the only thing 471 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: in the late round guys. Maybe a developmental pass catcher. Yeah, 472 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 1: I'm all for like a Deuce Vaughn in like the 473 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 1: fourth or fifth round. N Yeah, you know, I And 474 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: in all fairness, I think you know, when you look 475 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: at the needs, I mean, i'd have to take a 476 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: tackle over running back in the first round, you know. 477 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: Just Mike agrees to disagree. Okay, Now, Evan and I 478 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: believe that tackle, you know, and you know what it is. 479 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: You know what it is.

I'd be excited. 491 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. And I mean guys are to your point, 492 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 1: like those guys are like just their presence alone, Like 493 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: you would look at Paris Johnson walking out there and 494 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: you'd be like, oh, boy, like this guy looks just 495 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: like a mountain of a man who you know can 496 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: do it all. So I get that part of it. 497 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: I'll get crazy. You know. We'll be looking at this 498 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 1: stuff for a couple of months now, and you're like, 499 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: I just tell me who we got. Give me the 500 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: eleven guys, Like I just let's dive in on them 501 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: and move forward, get into OTAs and all that. I'm 502 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: getting little, im getting a little you know, aunty about 503 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: it's not gonna be eleven guys. I can guarantee more 504 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: or less, but it won't be eleven. I think it'll 505 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 1: be less. You're wrong. I don't know why, but it won't. 506 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 1: They won't stay put. It'll end up being more or less. 507 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: If you could get that to nine or fewer. Yeah, yeah, 508 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: see that's what Jeff's kiss. That's what dude started doing 509 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: in this mock drafts. So I'm like, well, what if 510 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: I just traded three picks up and then I only 511 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: have four more PA? That's lazy, all right. Five five 512 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: past five hundred is the ACE ticket hotline. Web radio 513 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 1: at Patriots dot com is the email address. These mac 514 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: rumors keep going on, but I think at this point 515 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 1: it's just like, Okay, what can I add to the 516 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: story to get people to read this post? You know, 517 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: it's really not adding any information or anything like that. 518 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: I remain sort of intrigued by the lack of a 519 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: local reporter who strongly has comments saying why it's all 520 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: bunk right, mildly intrigued by the fact that we really 521 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:54,360 Speaker 1: haven't had that strong rebuttal and I know that there 522 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: have been some I think Greg Baddard, I think Jeff 523 00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: Howe have said it's not it's not accurate, but but 524 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: with no real substance. When you say, what's the trading, 525 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 1: he's being the whole. He's the whole. Post by Florio 526 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: on about the fact that he was shopped. Yeah, the 527 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: best we could come, you know, was the Michael Lombardi 528 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: response on his GM podcast GM Shuffle podcast, where kind 529 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 1: of used a semantic argument if you asked me, yep, 530 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: the difference between shopping and listening, right, yeah, and I 531 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: just you know, and I have some of the quotes. 532 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 1: We can get to it later. We don't have to 533 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: bog it down. But my feeling and Fred and I 534 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: talked about this a little yesterday guys. He said, you know, 535 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,719 Speaker 1: it's not really shopping, it's listening. And there was one 536 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: one particular line that he used that um that I 537 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: thought was really odd. He's like, you know, so, okay, 538 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: so if if someone calls and they say, what do 539 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 1: you know you're gonna move, Mac, you know what do 540 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 1: you offer? And he and Michael Lombardi is because every 541 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: player is available, right, And I'm like, I don't know, 542 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrences. Do you make people will calling Doug Peterson 543 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: and saying, you know what do you what do you 544 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: give me? What can I What can I give you? 545 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: For Trevor Lawrence? Like they're hanging up the phone, They're 546 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: not listening. Not forget it, like I purposely didn't use 547 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Joe Barter, Like those guys are 548 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 1: off the table, forget it. Like same situation. Entering the 549 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: third year, Trevor Lawrence had one sort of social year 550 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: and one pretty good year, just like Mac Jones. Right, 551 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: do you think Doug Peterson is listening to someone who 552 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: what do you give me for Trevor Lawrence? No, he's 553 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: not available. Not every player is available? Right at that position, 554 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: Partici tells me there's something to it and I and 555 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: I was really intrigued with Lombardi as he continued to 556 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: quote unquote shoot down the reports. Did you did you 557 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: guys listen to the rest of it? That's the money 558 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: quote with regard to the you know whether or not 559 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: he was being shopped. He says he wasn't being shopped, 560 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: but then he started talking to him about some of 561 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: the late tackling stuff on the field that didn't endear 562 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: himself to with his teammates either. So he's going to 563 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: have to cover that up. He's going to have to 564 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 1: show that he's mature too. Where is this coming from 565 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: other than Bill's mouth? Like that was a thing during 566 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: the season where like idiots like us talk about like 567 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 1: did did he slide? Like did he go? Like that 568 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: was that clead up against Chicago when he made the 569 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: safety jump over him? And you know when he tried 570 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: to take Eli Apple's legs out on that return that 571 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 1: ended up getting called back? Was that kind of cheap? 572 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: We talk about that stuff, and like months later, Michael 573 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: Lombardio is throwing that into as an example of why 574 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: Mac Jones needs to mature. Yeah, I'd forgotten about that, 575 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: but you know it was an issue back then. Oh yeah, 576 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: But obviously it doesn't matter if it's an issue with 577 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: us back I know it was an issue with Bill, Yeah, 578 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: which is kind of where we how we arrived here 579 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: in the first place, is people think there's static between 580 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: Bill and Mac. Yeah, and I've seen nothing to dispute well, 581 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: and it'd be so easy. I mean Bill has been 582 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: asked multiple times, is he the guy? I mean, it's 583 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: just be easy to be like, he's our guy. We 584 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: love him like, I mean, he could easily well. One 585 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 1: thing I did last year, one thing I will this time. 586 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: I'll defend the Patriots, and you know, in particularly in 587 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: specifically the Florio report. If I was the Patriots, I 588 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: would not send out a statement or anything disputing that. 589 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: I'm not going to get in the business knowledge I 590 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not going to get I know, but 591 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: I'm not going to get into the business of disputing 592 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: rumors because then when I don't do it, my silence 593 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: says more than you know. So I don't address those things. 594 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: I agree you don't. We don't need a statement addressing that. 595 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: You do just the same thing you do when you 596 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: say that you're twenty seventh and spending that's different than 597 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: Bill a little bit of a stir. Yeah, you go 598 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: to the guy that you think will get that message 599 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: out for you when you say that's that we didn't 600 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: mean anything and and and that's different than Bill endorsing Mac. 601 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: That's a whole different thing, you know. But but in 602 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,719 Speaker 1: terms of that specific report, I would not go out 603 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: and the Patriots are you know, are not shopping back 604 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: and no uncertain terms, you know, I would not that. 605 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 1: We don't need that. Yeah, this is my least favorite 606 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: part of the off season. Yeah, drama and all this. Oh, 607 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: come on, you're no fun. I still feel fun when 608 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: it comes to this no fun Lazarre Frank, I like 609 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: minutes yesterday. I'm with Paul. I'm definitely intrigued by the 610 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: report um one, because we saw how unhappy he was. 611 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: I mean plenty of times, whether it's you know, yelling 612 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: on the sidelines, frustrated things like that happening on the field. 613 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised and allegedly calling Alabama to get 614 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: help with the offense. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised 615 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: if he popped up at the Raiders. I wouldn't be surprised. 616 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: Just let me know who's going to be the quarterback 617 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: in week one. I wouldn't be surprised back, so okat No, 618 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: on the other side, I don't like I Also in 619 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: a sense you have coaches who say, like, this person's 620 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: our guy, and then two days later they have a 621 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: whole new quarterbright. You don't believe it, Mary, They're called 622 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: sports Live. Yep, Yep, he's our yep. Just real quick 623 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 1: that i'd see Jeff Acuta got traded for a fifth 624 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: rounder seeing some people say wow, I guess I mean 625 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: Bernard saying guest Patricia didn't recommend him to Belichick at 626 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 1: that price? What what went wrong with Jeff Acuda third 627 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: overall pick? Right, couldn't play? It's just not good. He 628 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: wasn't good even coming out. I don't know he was 629 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: a good college play, but do you have you have 630 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: spidy sense. He might some injuries also, I think in 631 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: his in his NFL career, some serious ones. If I 632 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: remember get traded Atlanta, Atlanta interesting a lot, just doing 633 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: some some things considering a need. And if that is 634 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: Desmond Ridgerd can play um to fund one of the 635 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: you know, it's a terrible division. That could be one 636 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: of those teams that might open right next year. Yeah, 637 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: but I want to play. I want to pick the 638 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: scab with Evan. Okay, come out, because I think you 639 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: just said something that sort of lens Cretans. So it like, 640 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 1: just let me know who the quarterback is next year. 641 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: So you don't know, right, so there's at least some 642 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: doubt and you're not on right. Oh, I'm not saying 643 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: that there's okay, So that's you'd have to have your 644 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: head in the sand if you thought that there wasn't 645 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: at least an inkling of possibility that that let's just 646 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: say that, not even the trade rumors, that they're just 647 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 1: not sold on the quarterback, like you'd literally have to say. 648 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be like this earth shattering, Oh 649 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 1: they're shopping mac Jones. No one suggested they're walking around 650 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: with a picture of mac Jones with a four sale 651 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: sign overs it might be, well, but there's, like Evan 652 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: just put it, there's there's some uncertainty there. They're not sold. 653 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: I mean, to your point, Paul, if you flipped Trevor 654 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: Lawrence's seasons, wouldn't be crazy though, right If like people 655 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: started calling from him on that, well, that's different. Help 656 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: that he's on that different he's going on he's going 657 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,719 Speaker 1: I also think Trevor Lawrence was also in an awful 658 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: situation and everything, and I just don't think that mac 659 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: Jones was in an awful situation. I don't think it 660 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: was ideal with his offensive coordinator. But he had the 661 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: Patriots organization with Bill Belichick as opposed to lose an 662 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: organization like Jacksonville with Urban Meyer. I also think Trevor 663 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,280 Speaker 1: Lawrence all around is a better player and more mature 664 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 1: than Mac Jones. Well, he's definitely a better player, yea 665 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: better player. On this show when they were both rookies, 666 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 1: people like jumped down my throat because I'd say I'll 667 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: take Trevor Lawrence right now. Even all rookie years, Fred 668 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: kept saying, I'd still so much better on this show. 669 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 1: I'm not making fun of Fred. There's people who would 670 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: you take No, could Lawrence not serious? Right? Oh no? 671 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: I was no, No, No, you're serious? Yeah. I mean 672 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 1: the people say, oh no, because if you remember, at 673 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: the time, Trevor Lawrence did not look good. He had 674 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: a time, but I knew he was better. Yeah, ye, 675 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 1: all he needed was some coaching and right, yes, yeah Lawrence, 676 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence and the like incomparable like I will continue 677 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,399 Speaker 1: to say there is nothing about Mac Jones. If I'm 678 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: a defense that makes me say I'm worried Trevor Lawrence 679 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: plenty to say listen, I give you right now. Three 680 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,439 Speaker 1: first round picks for Trevor Lawrence. I would. I don't 681 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: know about that. I would, but I would take I 682 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 1: just think on me, I don't value the picks. I 683 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 1: just think. I just think eventually he'll be talked in 684 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: the same circles as Joe Burrow and Josh Allen. I 685 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 1: think eventually he will unless Jacksonville, I don't think. I 686 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: don't think that's a crazy thought. He's he's your franchise quarterback, 687 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 1: and I think that's worth three first round picks. I 688 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: gotta say, he really impressed me in the playoff game, 689 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 1: playing so badly for a half and then putting it 690 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: behind him. I think that's the hardest, the hardest conditions 691 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: to succeed in. I always used to say, and that's 692 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 1: a coming out sign for a quota. Used to say, 693 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 1: like when I when I played baseball, I would always say, yeah, 694 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: I pitch well today. Anybody can pitch well when they're pitching, Well, yeah, 695 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: what do you do when you don't have it right? 696 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 1: You're s how did that response where you can't put 697 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 1: the ball where you wanted? Do you find a way 698 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: to get some outs? Get from the game, right? That's 699 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 1: what That's what Trevor Lawrence did in that playoff game. 700 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: He didn't have it and he found a way. Yeah, 701 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 1: that's what we haven't seen for Mac at all, Like 702 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: can you fight through adversity? Do you have grit? Do 703 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,840 Speaker 1: you have like just anything that can allow you to 704 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: not have you know, the season that he did last year, 705 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,439 Speaker 1: like Alabama for example, he played their prime Georgia being great, 706 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 1: prime LSU being great, and so I feel like he 707 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: really didn't have that level of competition where he had 708 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,359 Speaker 1: to come back from being down twenty points. I threw 709 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 1: five interceptions the first half. He never had to come 710 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 1: back from that the whole time he was there. I 711 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: think for two with with Trevor Lawrence, it's kind of 712 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: lining up for him in the AFC South that if 713 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: he really is that guy, there's no real excuse with 714 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: Indianapolis or Houston he had to like like Tennessee like, 715 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: I mean, like we'll see, we'll see, because I think 716 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: that those two teams, um, I mean, I think Tennessee 717 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: is a different animal because they're clearly in transition. But 718 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 1: the other two are gonna try, they're gonna try to 719 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 1: find their quarterbacks. And I would say Houston in particular. 720 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 1: I think it's done a decent job of sort of 721 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: turning over that roster where they could be interesting if 722 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:23,280 Speaker 1: they can get serviceable play now I think it Davis 723 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: Mills to me is mac Jones. I think he's thoroughly 724 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: adequate and his adequosity as I like to say, I 725 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 1: think you can be fine with him, but you're not 726 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 1: going anywhere with him. So I think they need better 727 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: than that. And I don't know, we'll see if did 728 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: they take C. J. Strout into Stroud Hit, Yeah, that 729 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 1: could be a team that could be a good battle 730 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 1: with you know, Stroud and Lawrence say the next five years, 731 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: six years, that would be fun to watch to see 732 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: if the Packers would trade up and take a quarterback, 733 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 1: because I mean they're saying Jordan loves our guy obviously, 734 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 1: but I'm like, do they believe that or are they 735 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:00,360 Speaker 1: going to try to get another one? Yeah? Do they 736 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: have the resources to get another one? That's that's that's 737 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 1: very You can't do that if you're there, that'd be 738 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: to me fireable, Like you did all of this to 739 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 1: push Aaron Rodgers out and now you don't like the 740 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: guy you took toy. Maybe you'll always had the plan 741 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: to move up and get another guy. That was your plan. 742 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 1: They want like a high pick for Rogers. Anyway they're 743 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: not getting well, depends on whose first round they're getting, 744 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: the Jet the Jets. Yeah, well, I guess you're trading 745 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: him to the Jets right now. A matter of when 746 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 1: Jets pick to pick before the Patriots thirteen and they're 747 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 1: not trade. I agree with that, but they're not trading 748 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 1: thirteen for what happens there. That seems you pay him 749 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 1: sixty million to see how it works. It's crazy. I mean, 750 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it. They don't have as much leverage 751 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: as they think. Yeah, I mean, someone's got to happen 752 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: in the next couple of weeks, and this is we're 753 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 1: getting in the nitty gritty time. I just I'm just 754 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 1: going to let it ride all the way to training camp. 755 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: If you want to, if you're the Jets, call me in. Yeah. 756 00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just nothing saying that he doesn't already 757 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 1: have their playbook and he's not already studying and all that. 758 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 1: You know, I think it's interesting that OBJ didn't end 759 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 1: up going there. We didn't talk about that. Yeah, he 760 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 1: goes to the Ravens and everyone's saying, well, they got 761 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: him to get to bring Lamar back. Do you think 762 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: that e equals be there. I don't know if it's 763 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 1: like automatic, but yeah, I think that was a that's 764 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: why they did it. I mean, it certainly seems that, 765 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: you know, I know, um, I think Ian Rapp report 766 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:30,839 Speaker 1: yesterday said that they were celebrating after the deal was done, 767 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: the two of them together. I know, no, no, no, 768 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: Jackson Beckham were celebrating together. They had an Instagram post. 769 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 1: I think that Lamar put out, you know, with them 770 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 1: face timing. So I do think if you sort of 771 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,399 Speaker 1: look at it that way, more than likely they said 772 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 1: this is what we're gonna do. They gave him more 773 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 1: money than most teams looked like they were willing to do. Miraculously, 774 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: they decided, you know, they found a way to only 775 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: have account at like three million on the cap dues. 776 00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: I don't know how. I don't know how these mad 777 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,439 Speaker 1: they do. I don't know how they do that as well, 778 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 1: but a million is real money. They have four void years, Paul, 779 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 1: and that's really gonna come up and bite them in 780 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 1: the button a couple of years and then they're going 781 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: to be in cap jail and keep me in ding people, 782 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,919 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be horrible to break out a cap jail. 783 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:22,400 Speaker 1: But I will say, um and in all seriousness that like, 784 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: that's real money, so you know, you can joke about 785 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 1: the cap. I don't care about the cap part of it. 786 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,479 Speaker 1: But cash spending, that's real cash. He's gonna, he's gonna. 787 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: I think it was like thirteen eight something in a 788 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:37,879 Speaker 1: signing bonus. That's money that Bashadi has to give Odell Beckham. Yeah. 789 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: Worth it. That goes for one to count to another, 790 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 1: especially if it does grease the skids to get something 791 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: done with Lamar. Totally worth it. In the law, do 792 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: you do that if you're not certain you're gonna get 793 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: Lamar back? Or do you pretty much know we're gonna 794 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 1: get Lamar? I think the ladder, Yeah, I think in 795 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: The Ladder two. I've always felt the Ladder. And it's 796 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 1: just I think it's weird because he's he doesn't have 797 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: an agent and usually these things kind of get worked 798 00:40:58,120 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: out behind the scenes, and you just have a unique 799 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,760 Speaker 1: situation him where you have a player negotiating zombie own behalf. 800 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: He's got no one to tell him, Hey, don't tweet that, 801 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 1: or hey, don't reveal that you're about to sell a 802 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 1: piece of crap workout equipment like hit a Park. It's 803 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: the no agent think has really really hurt him. I 804 00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,359 Speaker 1: think so in a lot of ways. And I I'm 805 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 1: all for player empowerment and them doing their own thing. 806 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 1: And if he doesn't want to have an agent, he 807 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 1: doesn't need to have an agent. But so many of 808 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 1: these things that have happened with Lamar Jackson never happened 809 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 1: if he has an agent.

And 1072 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:55,879 Speaker 1: so here's what I'm here. I'm thinking. And you guys 1073 00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:57,920 Speaker 1: let me know afterwards, what do you think of you 1074 00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:02,320 Speaker 1: agree or not? I think we would be okay. Taking 1075 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:06,759 Speaker 1: Jean Robinson as our first pick, drew me out and 1076 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:10,239 Speaker 1: an a tackle or a big guard as our second pick. One. 1077 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 1: You are talking about a generational talent too, who has 1078 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 1: the contact balance of an Alvin Kamara, the vision and 1079 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 1: shiftiness of a say Quon Barkley, the route running of 1080 00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 1: a of a Christian McCaffrey, and the downfield present or 1081 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:28,800 Speaker 1: may I say threat, either a legitimate downfield threat in 1082 00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 1: the passing game like James White. Do you pair him 1083 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:37,280 Speaker 1: with a vermondre Stevens in the backfield Mike is Sitty 1084 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:41,759 Speaker 1: and Hunter Henry as you're tight end, and whether or 1085 00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:43,840 Speaker 1: not he caught a million balls last year or just 1086 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:47,120 Speaker 1: showing the flash A four tune Piquan Thornton on the 1087 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,520 Speaker 1: outside would Juju on the other side of the way 1088 00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:52,319 Speaker 1: during his cuts and plant. That puts an awful lot 1089 00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:54,680 Speaker 1: of pressure on the defense. So I think if we 1090 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,800 Speaker 1: were to go that route, I think we would be 1091 00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:02,480 Speaker 1: okay offensively, Tamar, really quickly for you. You mentioned mac 1092 00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:06,960 Speaker 1: Jones hadn't really had the challenge and conflict of having 1093 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 1: to come back from twenty when he was in college. Typically, 1094 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:13,200 Speaker 1: when you got four first round wide receivers on your team, 1095 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,719 Speaker 1: you're not down by twenty. So he was never really 1096 00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:18,919 Speaker 1: in that situation for that reason. Was for that reason 1097 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:23,000 Speaker 1: so he wasn't blaming him, was that he wasn't as 1098 00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:26,640 Speaker 1: mature as Trevor as Trevor mars because Trevor Marris has 1099 00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:29,200 Speaker 1: been through that kind of diversity. Well, yeah, but she's 1100 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 1: just saying, and she's not blaming match, She's just saying, 1101 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:33,400 Speaker 1: it's a fact that he didn't have to deal with that. 1102 00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:38,040 Speaker 1: I get right, when you have that kind of offensive 1103 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 1: that's around you, you don't, right, it's not that he didn't. 1104 00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 1: But but Trevil Lawrence didn't have to do that in 1105 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:46,080 Speaker 1: college either. Yeah, he had to do it in the pros. Yeah, 1106 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:49,240 Speaker 1: so and you know, with the opportunity in the pros, now, 1107 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 1: Lawrence has done it, has done it. Mac Jones hasn't. Yeah, 1108 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,520 Speaker 1: Trevor didn't lose any college games either, then we know 1109 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:57,960 Speaker 1: he doesn't. He had better receivers than we had, No, 1110 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:02,439 Speaker 1: not really wrong at not really at the Jas. Yeah, 1111 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 1: at Clemson he had a pretty good offense. Right, he 1112 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:09,000 Speaker 1: never lost at Clemson. Yeah, but obviously he's lost a 1113 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 1: ton with the Jaguars and has been able to fight 1114 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,280 Speaker 1: through adversity. All right, thanks for the call, Christians. He 1115 00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 1: also didn't have their receivers at Clemson. The mac had 1116 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,840 Speaker 1: an Alabam. No, well that wasn't even close. But like 1117 00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:23,320 Speaker 1: right now, Jacksonville has some good players, Like, yeah, they're 1118 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:26,520 Speaker 1: not anything like Christian Kirk. I like, probably more than most. 1119 00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 1: But I was summarily laughed at last year when he 1120 00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:31,880 Speaker 1: got that contract for liking. In his mind was like 1121 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:35,600 Speaker 1: like I would take him. Now, all of a sudden, 1122 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:37,160 Speaker 1: it's like, well, he's got a lot more around him. 1123 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 1: He's got Christian Kirk. Christian Kirk's the best receiver out 1124 00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:42,680 Speaker 1: of the two teams. Like, if you're drafting the Patriots 1125 00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:46,480 Speaker 1: and the Jaguars receivers, I'm say Jones Kirk. No, I 1126 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 1: would too, But I mean, let's not make it out 1127 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:52,120 Speaker 1: to be that they have like the Bengals wide receiver corps. 1128 00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 1: You know they'll get to that. They'll make fun of 1129 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,320 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow. He's just a product of his receivers too. 1130 00:58:57,680 --> 00:59:01,760 Speaker 1: Let's go to Nicholas in Florida. What's up, Nicholas? Hey there, 1131 00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:06,720 Speaker 1: how are you doing good? Good? Good? Yeah? First time caller, um, 1132 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,240 Speaker 1: not so long time listener. I suppose I started listening, uh, 1133 00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:14,240 Speaker 1: right after we lost Brady. That's when things got interesting, 1134 00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: I suppose. I mean it's always been interesting, but you know, 1135 00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:20,800 Speaker 1: a little more of a rebuild process. I suppose, um 1136 00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,440 Speaker 1: a little. I don't want to stay on too long. 1137 00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:27,800 Speaker 1: I have a little story about I work at a 1138 00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:32,160 Speaker 1: restaurant in Longbow Key, Florida. I'm originally from Portland, Maine. Um, 1139 00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 1: and we get a lot of celebrities at the restaurant. 1140 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:41,960 Speaker 1: We've had like Judge, Duty Play Thompson, Chris collins Worth. Um. 1141 00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:44,080 Speaker 1: But I went to visit one of my tables the 1142 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 1: other day and Mike on Wino was there. Um, that 1143 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 1: was kind of cool to meet a Patriots player training 1144 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:57,640 Speaker 1: down here in Florida eating at the restaurant a lot 1145 00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,960 Speaker 1: of steak. What was that? Sorry, you take down a 1146 01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:04,760 Speaker 1: lot of steak? Now? He had a two plates of 1147 01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:08,600 Speaker 1: calamari and then a group of now which good choices, 1148 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:11,560 Speaker 1: so big appetite for sure, and then finished it off 1149 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 1: with a glass of red wine. Um. Got to talk 1150 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:17,320 Speaker 1: to him for a little bit though. He was pretty surprised, 1151 01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:23,040 Speaker 1: um that somebody recognized him. But well, there with Craig Robinson, 1152 01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:26,560 Speaker 1: a couple of Michigan boys. Okay, Well, thanks for the call, Nick, 1153 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 1: appreciate it. Thanks for the story, Michael, when you sighting 1154 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:37,720 Speaker 1: in Florida. Cool story, Hans Uh Kevin's in Rochester, New York. 1155 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:42,880 Speaker 1: What's up, Kevin? Hey everybody, Yes, thanks for taking my call. 1156 01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:47,280 Speaker 1: Appreciate it. Sure, um I uh So, I was thinking 1157 01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:50,880 Speaker 1: about last year and you know, regardless of what ends 1158 01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,200 Speaker 1: up happening with Mac Jones or anything, I was wondering 1159 01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 1: if you know, if we were to roll back the 1160 01:00:55,720 --> 01:01:03,760 Speaker 1: team we had last year and have a confident coaching 1161 01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:06,920 Speaker 1: staff on the offensive side of the ball, right regarding 1162 01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:10,080 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien and his things, would we would we have 1163 01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:12,440 Speaker 1: like so Mac jonestall, like he always have like one 1164 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:14,760 Speaker 1: second to throw the ball, and there was always a 1165 01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 1: lot of scattering and you know, all the all the 1166 01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 1: jitteriness you would see of Mac Jones. Do we think 1167 01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:22,720 Speaker 1: just having a Bill O'Brien would resolve a lot of 1168 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:25,200 Speaker 1: that or because there was a lot of other issues 1169 01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:27,200 Speaker 1: that I would see, Like you know, it seems like 1170 01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,959 Speaker 1: after Scar left, like just the discipline of the front 1171 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:32,680 Speaker 1: line was just not as good and anyway, just curious 1172 01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:34,440 Speaker 1: to think what you guys thought about that and then 1173 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 1: you know, and is there some piece to the puzzle 1174 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 1: that we need in this upcoming draft. I think it's 1175 01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:43,360 Speaker 1: a good question. Thanks. I think that's what they're largely 1176 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:45,760 Speaker 1: counting on this year, you know, in terms of personnel, 1177 01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:48,720 Speaker 1: largely the same. Maybe they would have gotten one or 1178 01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:50,840 Speaker 1: two more wins, but it's just it's hard to say 1179 01:01:50,960 --> 01:01:53,360 Speaker 1: that they would have beaten a playoff team last year 1180 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:56,440 Speaker 1: just because they had Bill O'Brien. I didn't see enough. 1181 01:01:56,440 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 1: Maybe they would have gotten one to two more wins 1182 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,720 Speaker 1: with him, but that might be up a mystic. Well, 1183 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:03,800 Speaker 1: I mean, one to two more wins gets you in 1184 01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:09,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs, right right. I just think that a lot 1185 01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: of people when they ask that type of question, they're 1186 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:16,120 Speaker 1: really talking about Mac individually, of how can we evaluate 1187 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,440 Speaker 1: last season and is he really that bad or is 1188 01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:21,760 Speaker 1: he how good? Really is he? And do we have 1189 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,920 Speaker 1: that answer? And I think for all of us, in 1190 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:27,040 Speaker 1: order for any of us to be one hundred percent 1191 01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 1: sold on Mac Jones, he needs to be better than 1192 01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:32,280 Speaker 1: he was as a rookie, not just getting back down 1193 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:35,360 Speaker 1: to the rookie you know, back up to the rookie level, 1194 01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:39,120 Speaker 1: but even better than that for anybody to be one 1195 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:41,640 Speaker 1: hundred percent sold that that he's the guy for the 1196 01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:44,200 Speaker 1: next ten years. Otherwise, if he's just as good as 1197 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:47,280 Speaker 1: he was as a rookie, then where I don't really 1198 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 1: think that it's changed all that much. I mean, I 1199 01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:51,440 Speaker 1: think him taking that next step is how you get 1200 01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 1: to the point of being able to compete with these 1201 01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:56,200 Speaker 1: playoff teams at full power, and you know, to go 1202 01:02:56,360 --> 01:02:59,600 Speaker 1: into a Cincinnati, a Kansas City, a Buffalo, you know, 1203 01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 1: and I think we're really going to need things to 1204 01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 1: go right today. We might need a storm, we might 1205 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 1: need a quarterback to get hurt, like you know, those 1206 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:09,000 Speaker 1: are the things that that they've needed over the last 1207 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 1: few years to to beat those good teams. Straight up, 1208 01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 1: it's just that doesn't happen. Uh. Our next one, now, Chris, 1209 01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:20,000 Speaker 1: our web master, you're you're from out western mass right 1210 01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:29,160 Speaker 1: like central Agahome agahom he spells Agawam agahom g h 1211 01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:34,400 Speaker 1: a w h o m ah whom. Yeah, but it's 1212 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 1: pat n Agawam. What's up? Pat? That was actually the 1213 01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:43,400 Speaker 1: original spelling of Agawam. I think properly you say agis 1214 01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:46,480 Speaker 1: Chris knows the native of all christ An apology. Yeah, 1215 01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:50,760 Speaker 1: we're just going with the conventional spelling miwak, which means 1216 01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:55,560 Speaker 1: O R O one. I was just thinking that in 1217 01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:57,800 Speaker 1: my head. I was like, is that like Foxborough. I've 1218 01:03:57,840 --> 01:04:01,400 Speaker 1: seen it two different ways. Yeah, technically it's ouh okay. 1219 01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:04,080 Speaker 1: That's how Eric wrote it on all his articles. He 1220 01:04:04,560 --> 01:04:07,080 Speaker 1: was correct. He was correct. If you're talking about the town, 1221 01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 1: it's o U g h. If you're talking about the 1222 01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:11,560 Speaker 1: old stadium, it was O r oh. That's true. I 1223 01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:13,440 Speaker 1: like that. It's a good rule of thumb. It's not 1224 01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 1: a rule. It was Yeah, it's a fact. There was 1225 01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:20,520 Speaker 1: a sign that had R. I need nemonic devices sometimes, 1226 01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 1: and I'm writing, what's up, pat up, guys, what's up? Everyone? Um, 1227 01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 1: just really quickly. I'm I'm not picking on you, Paul 1228 01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:31,840 Speaker 1: when I say this, but I'm gonna invoke my two 1229 01:04:31,880 --> 01:04:37,040 Speaker 1: thousand and one Paul draft attitude. If we take Bjohn 1230 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:40,240 Speaker 1: Robinson at fourteen, and I'm just I'm gonna resign at 1231 01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:42,720 Speaker 1: least for this coming year. Like, I don't want to 1232 01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:45,600 Speaker 1: see it. I really don't want to see it because, 1233 01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:48,120 Speaker 1: like Evan said, like a lot of other people I've 1234 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:51,360 Speaker 1: heard said, this isn't nineteen ninety one. I mean, come on, 1235 01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:53,920 Speaker 1: we have a good running back. You can get a 1236 01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:57,120 Speaker 1: good running back and like fourth round or later, just 1237 01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:00,600 Speaker 1: do the right thing. If to take at number four, 1238 01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:03,480 Speaker 1: to pick, don't screw around, don't wait, don't trade back 1239 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:07,000 Speaker 1: or a tackle if they happy with either, But I'd 1240 01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 1: be more happy with they if the Patriots surprised us 1241 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 1: and take bi John Robinson. It is Blank's pick. Who's 1242 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:19,120 Speaker 1: picking else? That's what do you mean? They're all Bill Belichick? Really? 1243 01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:21,760 Speaker 1: You don't think that like he took the advice to 1244 01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:24,439 Speaker 1: somebody else. No, that doesn't sound like a Bill pick. 1245 01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:26,280 Speaker 1: That sounds one hundred percent like a Bill pick. To 1246 01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:30,200 Speaker 1: take a running back at fourteen, yes, I'll pick Patty 1247 01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:32,960 Speaker 1: and Irwell just said it's nineteen ninety it's not nineteen 1248 01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 1: ninety one. I know, boom great. Yeah, but Bill would 1249 01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:39,280 Speaker 1: never take a running back that high. He took Lawrence 1250 01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:44,320 Speaker 1: Maroney at like twenty. Yeah that was twenty you know, Fred? Yeah, 1251 01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:47,480 Speaker 1: I don't all the answer to any question that you say, 1252 01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 1: whose pick was that? My answer will always be Bill 1253 01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:53,320 Speaker 1: Belichick until he's no longer here. Well, and that's why 1254 01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:57,560 Speaker 1: they won't pick him. But in this particular case, i 1255 01:05:57,640 --> 01:05:59,919 Speaker 1: don't know how you like would push back on whatever 1256 01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,280 Speaker 1: and saying, yeah, I just I'm running back to old 1257 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 1: school pick. Definitely an old school pick. But I don't 1258 01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:12,320 Speaker 1: think Bill would ever take him. I just I can't 1259 01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:15,040 Speaker 1: see him taking I don't see that's that's two different things. Yeah, 1260 01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:18,160 Speaker 1: I don't see the Patriots taking him. If the Patriots 1261 01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:21,440 Speaker 1: don't take him, that's not an indication that someone else 1262 01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 1: made the pick. Well, I'm saying if the Patriots took him, 1263 01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:29,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying it, then it was on board. Bill wanted them. 1264 01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 1: I'd say maybe Robert Kraft wanted them. Do you think 1265 01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:37,800 Speaker 1: that about Beijon? What do you think that you think 1266 01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:42,360 Speaker 1: the running back is anti Bill? Yes, on this edition 1267 01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:44,560 Speaker 1: of the Patriots with all their needs to take a 1268 01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:47,520 Speaker 1: running back at fourteen would be anti Bill. I guess 1269 01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:49,520 Speaker 1: maybe you could say the need thing. I could see 1270 01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:51,720 Speaker 1: where you're coming from, just because their last few drafts 1271 01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:55,160 Speaker 1: were need base. But I don't know. I think Bill 1272 01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:57,760 Speaker 1: thinking that you can still build an offense through running back. 1273 01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:01,080 Speaker 1: It's totally I disagree he was, especially with what he 1274 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:02,960 Speaker 1: thinks about his quarterback. Yeah, that's what I was thinking 1275 01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:04,920 Speaker 1: in my head with the way he thinks of his quarterback. 1276 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:07,280 Speaker 1: Maybe he thinks that if he takes some of the 1277 01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:10,680 Speaker 1: pressure to throw off of him, Well, you've got a 1278 01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:12,480 Speaker 1: point there. Now, I'm not going to get into the 1279 01:07:12,640 --> 01:07:14,560 Speaker 1: you know, let's kill him for something he hasn't done. 1280 01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:17,840 Speaker 1: But I agree with Evan. If if it happens, that's 1281 01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:20,280 Speaker 1: what the reasoning that you've got a point there. That 1282 01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:23,560 Speaker 1: would be a total lack of faith in his quarterback. 1283 01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:25,160 Speaker 1: And then he would get They would get up there 1284 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 1: and they would be like, oh, well he was the 1285 01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:28,720 Speaker 1: best player available and he is. How can we how 1286 01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:31,560 Speaker 1: can we pass him up? He was so good? Yeah? Yeah, 1287 01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 1: totally would ask you if you guys grinding tape on Jean. 1288 01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 1: I did Mark and Connecticut wants to talk to Evan. Wonderful. 1289 01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:45,040 Speaker 1: What's up? Even? What's going on? Brother? What's up? So 1290 01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:49,480 Speaker 1: your Mark draft? Absolutely perfect? Oh thank you? Trade down 1291 01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 1: to twenty, you pig Zay Flowers and then in the 1292 01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:56,720 Speaker 1: second round you move up and you big Darnell Washington. 1293 01:07:57,080 --> 01:07:59,680 Speaker 1: If they do those two pigs that that that's just 1294 01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:02,240 Speaker 1: a amazing And I don't care what they do after that. 1295 01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:05,240 Speaker 1: I appreciate that they're not going to do that, but 1296 01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:10,080 Speaker 1: I appreciate that was my That was like, we did 1297 01:08:10,160 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 1: three of them so far. I don't know if we're 1298 01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 1: going to do a fourth right before the draft or not. 1299 01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:16,960 Speaker 1: He's Mike saying, no, we did everybody else. We did 1300 01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:21,760 Speaker 1: the first two. I put my Belichick you know hat 1301 01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:24,040 Speaker 1: on and was like, what would Bill do this last one? 1302 01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:25,800 Speaker 1: I was like, what would Evan do? Like, I'm just 1303 01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:27,559 Speaker 1: gonna do what I want to do and have fun 1304 01:08:27,640 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 1: with it, and that's what I did. But if they 1305 01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:33,040 Speaker 1: did it was absolutely perfect, Well, thank you because you 1306 01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:35,960 Speaker 1: like the pick. Yeah, if they do what I did 1307 01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:40,000 Speaker 1: in my mock draft, I would say somebody else might 1308 01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:45,360 Speaker 1: have a somebody else might have a say at the table. 1309 01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:48,600 Speaker 1: If they picked a five foot nine slot receiver in 1310 01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:50,680 Speaker 1: the first round, then I will tell you that Bill 1311 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:56,400 Speaker 1: Belichick was swayed, but by somebody in the second round. Yeah, 1312 01:08:56,439 --> 01:08:58,840 Speaker 1: that's more of a Bill pick. Darnel Washington is more 1313 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:01,200 Speaker 1: of a Bill pick. But Zay Flowers in the first 1314 01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:03,599 Speaker 1: round is not a Bill pick. So if that's the case, 1315 01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:06,559 Speaker 1: then that then the only changed like to move them 1316 01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:10,760 Speaker 1: from where they are to contender status. Is a meteoric 1317 01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:14,840 Speaker 1: rise for the quarterback like Zay Flowers isn't putting you 1318 01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:17,960 Speaker 1: in contender status if Mac Jones is what he's been 1319 01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:20,320 Speaker 1: for two years. I know, but I think what you 1320 01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:23,760 Speaker 1: would hope is obviously that having Azay Flowers is going 1321 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:28,559 Speaker 1: to elevate Mac and having Bill O'Brien right to those 1322 01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:31,439 Speaker 1: two things together. Now you have Josh McDaniels and they 1323 01:09:31,479 --> 01:09:34,800 Speaker 1: weren't at that status, but he hit he hit the 1324 01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:37,880 Speaker 1: wall in his rookie year, but he got off to 1325 01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:40,280 Speaker 1: a pretty good start with Josh mcdid and his rookiear 1326 01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:44,040 Speaker 1: that didn't have Zay Flowers right out of the game. 1327 01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,080 Speaker 1: He's thrown into Kobe Myers and Kendrick Bourne and Nelson 1328 01:09:47,120 --> 01:09:50,040 Speaker 1: Agalore like this this kid is different. Like this kid 1329 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:53,040 Speaker 1: is different than those guys like just he just moves 1330 01:09:53,080 --> 01:09:55,240 Speaker 1: differently on a football field. So if you have a 1331 01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:58,439 Speaker 1: guy like Zay Flowers that can open up the offense 1332 01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:00,559 Speaker 1: and make it easier for the order back to hit 1333 01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:03,479 Speaker 1: some big plays just by getting number four the football. 1334 01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:05,519 Speaker 1: He wread number four at BC, I don't know if 1335 01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:08,320 Speaker 1: he will hear Yeah, number four the football. Then happy 1336 01:10:08,840 --> 01:10:12,240 Speaker 1: and he becomes the binkie that he According to Dante 1337 01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 1: uh Let's see Ron and Cambridge says, remember the days 1338 01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:19,160 Speaker 1: when Deuce would complain about Brady's TV twelve business and 1339 01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:21,800 Speaker 1: how he wasn't a team player and too focused on 1340 01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:25,280 Speaker 1: off field business and complaining about twelve and four seasons, 1341 01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:28,240 Speaker 1: and how when Brady left, it would be so interesting 1342 01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:31,639 Speaker 1: to see how Bill would succeed once Brady left nailed it. Boy, 1343 01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:34,280 Speaker 1: do I wish for those days back, curious to see 1344 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:36,720 Speaker 1: how Bill's number one fan would defend him. Now it 1345 01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:41,200 Speaker 1: appears the Emperor has no clothes. Oh good email. That 1346 01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:43,679 Speaker 1: was great. That was great. You perfectly put me into 1347 01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:48,120 Speaker 1: the ya. Yeah. Uh, look, man, it ain't going great. 1348 01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:49,679 Speaker 1: What do you want me to say? I ain't enjoying 1349 01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:53,439 Speaker 1: it in all seriousness? Yeah, because you know, I you know, 1350 01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:55,160 Speaker 1: I do it for sport. I liked to I like 1351 01:10:55,280 --> 01:10:58,680 Speaker 1: to tsu. Yeah. If there's been very many things that 1352 01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:01,200 Speaker 1: you've said that you regretted with it, I think it'll 1353 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:04,360 Speaker 1: be interesting to see what happens. No, no, no, because 1354 01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:10,040 Speaker 1: because fair no interesting, it was there the opposite of interesting. 1355 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:14,599 Speaker 1: They're boring. No, but to see what will happen. I'm 1356 01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:17,639 Speaker 1: not saying that the result is. I know I think 1357 01:11:17,720 --> 01:11:19,519 Speaker 1: and I you know you can correct me. Mike. If 1358 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:21,679 Speaker 1: I'm putting words, you know, I think what Mike really 1359 01:11:21,880 --> 01:11:26,599 Speaker 1: strongly felt at the time was he's gonna show everybody 1360 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:30,360 Speaker 1: he can do it without Well that's not what he said. 1361 01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:34,040 Speaker 1: But that's the interesting part is this has set up 1362 01:11:34,080 --> 01:11:37,360 Speaker 1: in a way that it's gonna be sustained. Yeah, we 1363 01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:40,320 Speaker 1: might not be super Bowl caliber the very next year, 1364 01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:42,960 Speaker 1: but we're gonna build the team the same way we 1365 01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:45,720 Speaker 1: always because I think I always teach you like you know, 1366 01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:47,720 Speaker 1: the Santa Claus line, no, no, no, and I but 1367 01:11:47,800 --> 01:11:50,320 Speaker 1: I just think people, especially out of the game, it 1368 01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:52,479 Speaker 1: was the hoodie thing put me as like Bill Belichick 1369 01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:55,519 Speaker 1: super fan, which I like coaches. I really like coaches. 1370 01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:57,800 Speaker 1: I think it's you know, one of the coolest parts 1371 01:11:57,840 --> 01:12:00,640 Speaker 1: of sports to me is is coaching. But I just 1372 01:12:00,760 --> 01:12:02,800 Speaker 1: never came from a place where like, we're gonna show 1373 01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:05,320 Speaker 1: him Bill Like I didn't really, I was never invested 1374 01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:07,920 Speaker 1: like that. I think the think this where and like 1375 01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:10,960 Speaker 1: and we know, you start walking down the street and 1376 01:12:11,040 --> 01:12:12,880 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you're up on the hill defending 1377 01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:15,680 Speaker 1: the thing. And I'll still say this, Tom Brady had 1378 01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:17,519 Speaker 1: three more years, you got an answer about how they 1379 01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:19,439 Speaker 1: were going to get another super Bowl in those three 1380 01:12:19,520 --> 01:12:21,719 Speaker 1: years with that Patriots team that they had in twenty nineteen, 1381 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,200 Speaker 1: I'm all ears, I'm all ears. That was where I was. 1382 01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:26,559 Speaker 1: I realized it ain't happening. They ain't They ain't getting 1383 01:12:26,560 --> 01:12:29,920 Speaker 1: another another super Bowl from him here. He's not engaged anymore, 1384 01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:32,120 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to be here. Now is the time 1385 01:12:32,160 --> 01:12:34,240 Speaker 1: to move on. That's that was my point, and I 1386 01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:36,599 Speaker 1: still think it was the right point. If you told me, like, hey, 1387 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:38,720 Speaker 1: if they had just drafted this guy and this guy 1388 01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:40,760 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty and done this and that twenty like 1389 01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:44,200 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one wouldn't have happened. Like so, I'm still waiting, 1390 01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:45,760 Speaker 1: like that's my question. What would you have done? What 1391 01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:47,080 Speaker 1: would you have done over the last three years? You 1392 01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:49,800 Speaker 1: you just keep rolling Brady out there him, play with 1393 01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:55,640 Speaker 1: this autense me get him engaged and and pretty simple, right, 1394 01:12:55,760 --> 01:12:58,160 Speaker 1: give him some money. He would have gotten re engaged regardless. 1395 01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:02,519 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily fully described to that. But if Tom 1396 01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:05,960 Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, if they had drafted AJ Brown instead 1397 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:08,400 Speaker 1: of nikkil Harry, dude, do you you don't think that 1398 01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:10,880 Speaker 1: he would have been That's but that's before the fact, 1399 01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 1: that's before the facts. I mean, my point is is 1400 01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:16,680 Speaker 1: that you said there was nothing that they could do 1401 01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:20,320 Speaker 1: like there if they came, if they if they got 1402 01:13:20,479 --> 01:13:23,640 Speaker 1: one of those number one receivers for him, and all 1403 01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:25,479 Speaker 1: of a sudden that you know he has a connection 1404 01:13:25,600 --> 01:13:31,080 Speaker 1: like that, then I still because he was as have 1405 01:13:31,160 --> 01:13:33,280 Speaker 1: to give him his money. It's it's the money thing 1406 01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:35,760 Speaker 1: is It's just a different it's a different conversation because 1407 01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:38,320 Speaker 1: these were conversations had in the fall of twenty nineteen. 1408 01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:40,679 Speaker 1: The table was already set with that twenty nineteen draft 1409 01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:43,400 Speaker 1: for me, and there was no way out of mistake 1410 01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:47,160 Speaker 1: was made. I agree with Mike. These mistakes were prior 1411 01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:49,760 Speaker 1: to getting to that point. Yeah, and we remember back 1412 01:13:50,120 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 1: in that summer when he was talking about it like 1413 01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:56,439 Speaker 1: they doubted him long before we got to the end 1414 01:13:56,479 --> 01:13:59,280 Speaker 1: of the road. Yeah, and that was I think sort 1415 01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:01,160 Speaker 1: of unless they were going to pay him, they weren't 1416 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 1: going back. But I think I don't put it on 1417 01:14:03,560 --> 01:14:05,479 Speaker 1: Tom either, like no I put it on I put 1418 01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:07,439 Speaker 1: it at all parties. Really, I think there was some 1419 01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:10,000 Speaker 1: some blame to go around. Much like most of these things, 1420 01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:13,080 Speaker 1: it's not always black and white. There's there's there's more, 1421 01:14:13,280 --> 01:14:16,840 Speaker 1: you know, it's probably more in the middle. Elf from Wisconsin. 1422 01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:20,960 Speaker 1: Fred's eternal optimism is absolutely hilarious. He has full faith 1423 01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:23,120 Speaker 1: that Bill will do the right thing, despite a massive 1424 01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:25,760 Speaker 1: amount of evidence to the contrary, and it seems like 1425 01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:28,439 Speaker 1: he even gets annoyed with people who have lost the faith. 1426 01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:31,680 Speaker 1: Fact is, I don't think Bill wanted to hire Billy Oh. 1427 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:34,280 Speaker 1: I think he thinks the reason it didn't work last 1428 01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:36,840 Speaker 1: year where the players and the coaching was fine. I 1429 01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:38,960 Speaker 1: also don't trust him to draft the right guys or 1430 01:14:39,040 --> 01:14:41,640 Speaker 1: to develop them if he does. I think what it 1431 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:44,000 Speaker 1: all comes down to is a lack of accountability. He 1432 01:14:44,160 --> 01:14:47,400 Speaker 1: seems to think he is infallible, so nothing was ever 1433 01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:50,240 Speaker 1: his or his coach's fault. Because of this, I'm ready 1434 01:14:50,320 --> 01:14:52,800 Speaker 1: to move on. I don't know what will come next, 1435 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:55,400 Speaker 1: but I feel pretty certain that for as long as 1436 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:58,000 Speaker 1: Bill stays, will be around eight or nine wins this season. 1437 01:14:58,280 --> 01:15:00,679 Speaker 1: To me, it's okay to have one of two really 1438 01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:03,400 Speaker 1: bad seasons in order to get that high draft pick 1439 01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:08,200 Speaker 1: talent it is. I agree with a lot of that email. Yeah, same, 1440 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,479 Speaker 1: I think that. I mean, even when Bill was asked 1441 01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:12,479 Speaker 1: about that at the owner's meetings, He's like, it's the 1442 01:15:12,520 --> 01:15:14,920 Speaker 1: best it was the best thing for the team, Like 1443 01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:18,080 Speaker 1: the answers are just like it doesn't sound like it 1444 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:20,760 Speaker 1: was something he wanted to do, like it was the 1445 01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:24,840 Speaker 1: best thing for the team, not like it was just 1446 01:15:25,160 --> 01:15:27,599 Speaker 1: it was whether or not, like I agree with Tamara 1447 01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:29,960 Speaker 1: and whether or not it was what he wanted to do. 1448 01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:32,840 Speaker 1: I mean, can't I can't definitively tell you that he 1449 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:34,600 Speaker 1: didn't want to do it. I mean it's not but 1450 01:15:34,800 --> 01:15:38,360 Speaker 1: like the other side can't be stated unequivocally either, which 1451 01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:40,920 Speaker 1: Mike Lombardi and that rant that was part of it. 1452 01:15:40,960 --> 01:15:43,120 Speaker 1: He goes, you know, these two they have to come together. 1453 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:46,120 Speaker 1: You know, Bill admitted that he was I'm sorry, what 1454 01:15:48,280 --> 01:15:51,679 Speaker 1: are you saying that because they they signed Bill O'Brien 1455 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:54,080 Speaker 1: that was an admission, because that's what he's saying. Because 1456 01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:56,960 Speaker 1: I don't think that that's necessarily the case. I agree 1457 01:15:56,960 --> 01:15:58,800 Speaker 1: with Tamara. I think it was something that was sort 1458 01:15:58,840 --> 01:16:01,479 Speaker 1: of forced upon him. Number One, I don't know this 1459 01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:03,960 Speaker 1: for a fact, but that's just my thought. And number two, 1460 01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:06,960 Speaker 1: has he talked to Mac about it, which I have 1461 01:16:07,040 --> 01:16:12,760 Speaker 1: absolutely no idea that to me is what needs to happen. Well, 1462 01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:15,720 Speaker 1: Max's not you know, for his part, Max's not, you know, 1463 01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:20,639 Speaker 1: acting like the petulant child. He's he's here, he's working out, 1464 01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:25,719 Speaker 1: he's doing community stuff. You know, um in this community. 1465 01:16:25,800 --> 01:16:29,479 Speaker 1: Now you know where he lives, um, you know, damage control. Yeah. 1466 01:16:29,479 --> 01:16:31,400 Speaker 1: I think he's doing a good job. But but whatever 1467 01:16:31,439 --> 01:16:33,920 Speaker 1: you want to do, I think he's doing a good job. Yeah, 1468 01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:35,720 Speaker 1: that's what I would call it. Like he's showing that 1469 01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:37,880 Speaker 1: I want to be part of this community, I want 1470 01:16:37,880 --> 01:16:40,080 Speaker 1: to be part of the team. I think he recognizes 1471 01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:42,760 Speaker 1: that he has some culpability for what happened last year, 1472 01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 1: and he's trying to rectify. Someone has to Yeah, I 1473 01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:47,880 Speaker 1: don't think the other side is I was going to say, 1474 01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:52,360 Speaker 1: I feel like Bill has had the opportunity to acknowledge 1475 01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:55,880 Speaker 1: that the experiment as Robert Kraft described it, um and 1476 01:16:56,240 --> 01:17:00,519 Speaker 1: somebody else did. Yeah. Yeah, I mean just to hear 1477 01:17:00,600 --> 01:17:03,519 Speaker 1: Robert Kraft in Arizona say call it an experiment and 1478 01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:07,320 Speaker 1: say it failed, Like I thought that was because Robert 1479 01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:11,200 Speaker 1: Kraft looked at it objective, like a real sane person. Yes, 1480 01:17:11,439 --> 01:17:15,160 Speaker 1: I just don't think he's going to be accountable. He's 1481 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:16,920 Speaker 1: never going to be accountable to the media or the 1482 01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:18,760 Speaker 1: fans in the way that they all want he's going 1483 01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 1: to be accountable to Robert Craft in the private meetings 1484 01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:23,360 Speaker 1: behind closed doors, and otherwise, all he's going to say 1485 01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:25,000 Speaker 1: to you is I'm doing what I think is best 1486 01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:26,680 Speaker 1: for the team, and that's all you're getting. You're ever 1487 01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:29,280 Speaker 1: going to come out and say I don't need him 1488 01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:31,760 Speaker 1: to be accountable to us. I don't. But I can 1489 01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:33,960 Speaker 1: read between the lines with Build. You know, we all 1490 01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:37,200 Speaker 1: have enough experience now with him to understand what he's 1491 01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:39,920 Speaker 1: what he's really saying, and when he sits there and 1492 01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:44,200 Speaker 1: he says some things at the owner's meetings that clearly 1493 01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:47,400 Speaker 1: I'm one hundred and ten percent with Tamara. He thinks 1494 01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:49,720 Speaker 1: the players were there at fault last year. I can 1495 01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:52,839 Speaker 1: give you a doesn't think it's the coaching. He totally 1496 01:17:53,400 --> 01:17:56,560 Speaker 1: was the players, And that to me, on top of 1497 01:17:57,120 --> 01:17:59,679 Speaker 1: some other you know, actual things like you know, money 1498 01:17:59,720 --> 01:18:01,880 Speaker 1: and was like that. But I do think that there 1499 01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:05,960 Speaker 1: was a factor into why Jacoby Myers is no longer 1500 01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:08,840 Speaker 1: here and Damian Harris is no longer here who they 1501 01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:13,320 Speaker 1: could have had at probably a better contract than James Robinson, 1502 01:18:13,680 --> 01:18:16,080 Speaker 1: a guy that you know fits here and works well 1503 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:18,479 Speaker 1: here and is well liked in the locker room and 1504 01:18:18,520 --> 01:18:21,120 Speaker 1: they've moved on. I think that's why Brian Hoyer, who 1505 01:18:21,200 --> 01:18:24,559 Speaker 1: cost them money to get rid of, is no longer here, 1506 01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:28,519 Speaker 1: is because all these players stood up and said, this 1507 01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:32,400 Speaker 1: is not what are we doing on offense. And luckily 1508 01:18:33,040 --> 01:18:36,320 Speaker 1: for Mac, he's the quarterback and he's too important to 1509 01:18:36,439 --> 01:18:41,040 Speaker 1: the organization to just cut ties with him immediately. But 1510 01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:44,800 Speaker 1: everything points to the fact that Bill thinks that the 1511 01:18:44,920 --> 01:18:47,679 Speaker 1: coaching would have been fine last year if the players 1512 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:51,240 Speaker 1: bought in and the players too, you know, were in 1513 01:18:51,360 --> 01:18:54,479 Speaker 1: agreeance with what they were doing. So by that motive 1514 01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:57,439 Speaker 1: thinking though, then not much is going to change this year, right, 1515 01:18:58,160 --> 01:19:00,400 Speaker 1: Like I mean, if you can't accept what you were 1516 01:19:00,439 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 1: responsible for last year, and yeah, you got new coaches again, 1517 01:19:04,280 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien, you're hoping that Bill O'Brien has enough sway 1518 01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:11,280 Speaker 1: with Bill that Bill says, go make me an offense 1519 01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:13,640 Speaker 1: and he lets him do it, and he lets him 1520 01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:15,360 Speaker 1: do it. Well, yeah, like I don't, but I think 1521 01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:18,000 Speaker 1: those are two different things. Like, yeah, I think Bill 1522 01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:20,599 Speaker 1: O'Brien will be a better offensive coordinator than Matt patricia 1523 01:19:20,720 --> 01:19:23,759 Speaker 1: Hey because he's an offensive coordinator, so that by definition 1524 01:19:23,880 --> 01:19:26,920 Speaker 1: is going to make him a better one. But I 1525 01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:32,599 Speaker 1: agree with Mike's point, like I think when and there 1526 01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:37,280 Speaker 1: were so many things in that that owner's meeting, the 1527 01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:40,880 Speaker 1: special teams won really got yep, got got me make 1528 01:19:40,960 --> 01:19:43,000 Speaker 1: me going at the time, like you know, well, you 1529 01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:45,240 Speaker 1: know it's not Cam and I'm not suggesting it was 1530 01:19:45,320 --> 01:19:49,479 Speaker 1: Cam a Cord, but I'm saying he's telling you that 1531 01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:52,080 Speaker 1: he doesn't think the offense was a train wreck because 1532 01:19:52,080 --> 01:19:55,640 Speaker 1: of coaching last year. He's basically telling you that. I 1533 01:19:55,760 --> 01:20:00,479 Speaker 1: always say, forget what he says. All right, listen into him, 1534 01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:04,120 Speaker 1: but don't listen necessarily to the words, go by his actions. 1535 01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:06,880 Speaker 1: What is he telling you by not saying this or 1536 01:20:07,040 --> 01:20:11,639 Speaker 1: by saying that, or what he ends up doing. I'm sorry. 1537 01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:14,439 Speaker 1: When the season ends and three days later we put 1538 01:20:14,479 --> 01:20:17,280 Speaker 1: out what I would call an unprecedented press release, I 1539 01:20:17,360 --> 01:20:20,840 Speaker 1: don't think that was Bill Belichick. Oh no, no, no, 1540 01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:23,680 Speaker 1: definitely not. I think the reason why that that was 1541 01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:28,000 Speaker 1: rubber stamped, you know, accelerated, was Robert Kraft, of course, 1542 01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:30,839 Speaker 1: and good for him for doing it, yeah, because otherwise 1543 01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:33,639 Speaker 1: I think there's a chance that we drag our feet 1544 01:20:34,160 --> 01:20:38,200 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, well you know, you know, well, 1545 01:20:38,280 --> 01:20:41,280 Speaker 1: I mean, what would have gotten Bill O'Brien, but you know, 1546 01:20:41,479 --> 01:20:44,519 Speaker 1: he took the Iowa state job or something, you know, 1547 01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:47,760 Speaker 1: some random call or whatever, and now you don't have 1548 01:20:47,880 --> 01:20:50,320 Speaker 1: any options. Well, you know, we're better off with just 1549 01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:54,800 Speaker 1: Matpetrician in year two. I think that could have happened too. 1550 01:20:56,600 --> 01:21:00,679 Speaker 1: Floyd in Redford, Michigan last year, I all the Patriots 1551 01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:03,120 Speaker 1: pregame show and I asked, do the Patriots want a 1552 01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:07,639 Speaker 1: playmaker at quarterback? Please see the following responses. Hardy said 1553 01:21:07,720 --> 01:21:10,760 Speaker 1: everyone in the NFL wants to play maker at quarterback. Paul, 1554 01:21:11,320 --> 01:21:14,040 Speaker 1: if Justin Fields was there, the Patriots would have drafted him. 1555 01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:18,240 Speaker 1: The lovely Tamara. I don't know about that. Patriots drafting 1556 01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:20,639 Speaker 1: Justin Field? And then Mike said Mack is their kind 1557 01:21:20,720 --> 01:21:23,240 Speaker 1: of guy. The rest of the NFL has moved to 1558 01:21:23,320 --> 01:21:25,800 Speaker 1: the more mobile quarterback, but not the Patriots. We have 1559 01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:28,840 Speaker 1: passed on Lamar Jackson, Jalen Hurts and failed to move 1560 01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:33,120 Speaker 1: up four spots draft Justin Field. Can we please have 1561 01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:38,080 Speaker 1: a new quarterback philosophy? I don't know. Joe Burrow's doing 1562 01:21:38,160 --> 01:21:40,759 Speaker 1: pretty well. Yeah, I think he's a lot more mobile 1563 01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:43,760 Speaker 1: than these guys. He's not a runner, but he's he's 1564 01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:46,720 Speaker 1: pretty mobile. His legs are not a factor like you are. 1565 01:21:46,880 --> 01:21:50,639 Speaker 1: You're not, and watch the championship game in Kansas City. 1566 01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:52,920 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he can't move. I'm just saying you're not. 1567 01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:55,240 Speaker 1: If you're a defensive coordinator and you're going up against 1568 01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:57,840 Speaker 1: the Bengals, you're not game planning Joe Burrow's mobility. No, 1569 01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:00,360 Speaker 1: I would agree, But he has the option if needs to. 1570 01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:02,400 Speaker 1: I think Mac has the option if he needs to too. 1571 01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:04,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think he can make the plays 1572 01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:08,479 Speaker 1: that he that Burrow makes with his legs. They ran 1573 01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:10,600 Speaker 1: the same forty I don't know. I mean, it's not 1574 01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:14,240 Speaker 1: about speed, it's about pocket presence and everything that goes 1575 01:22:14,280 --> 01:22:16,280 Speaker 1: into it. I think he's a better runner. I think 1576 01:22:16,320 --> 01:22:18,519 Speaker 1: he was a better runner at LSU. I think he 1577 01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:21,400 Speaker 1: made plays with his legs at LSU. He's not. You're right, 1578 01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:24,080 Speaker 1: they're not game planning to stop that, just like I 1579 01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:27,439 Speaker 1: don't think they're. I think Justin Herbert's really mobile, too, 1580 01:22:27,920 --> 01:22:29,679 Speaker 1: but I don't think teams are game planning to stop 1581 01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:32,080 Speaker 1: his running. Well, you have to work and run. It's 1582 01:22:32,120 --> 01:22:34,240 Speaker 1: like you're mindful of it, but you're not. I agree 1583 01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:37,160 Speaker 1: with you. Like from a physical standpoint, especially now with 1584 01:22:37,240 --> 01:22:39,560 Speaker 1: the toWin ACL, they're probably not all that different. I 1585 01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:41,840 Speaker 1: just thought, I just think it's white years different when 1586 01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:44,120 Speaker 1: you watch him. I just think the difference isn't about 1587 01:22:44,160 --> 01:22:46,080 Speaker 1: I guess my point is the difference isn't it about 1588 01:22:46,160 --> 01:22:49,920 Speaker 1: running or mobility. It's more about I think two things. 1589 01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:52,600 Speaker 1: One just pure arm talent like these other guys, like 1590 01:22:52,680 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert's a good example, just has a howitzer. And 1591 01:22:55,360 --> 01:22:57,919 Speaker 1: then you also have you know, out of structure playmaking 1592 01:22:57,960 --> 01:22:59,920 Speaker 1: and that a native field to just kind of create, 1593 01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:03,759 Speaker 1: you know, when things break down, can I get outside 1594 01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:07,000 Speaker 1: the pocket, buy time and then make a throw down 1595 01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:11,479 Speaker 1: the field that that element of it. Mac Jones doesn't 1596 01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:14,080 Speaker 1: necessarily have like some of these other guys. But I 1597 01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:17,040 Speaker 1: think that gets lost and that's not to me. That's 1598 01:23:17,120 --> 01:23:20,320 Speaker 1: a little bit different than than calling it mobility. Like 1599 01:23:20,439 --> 01:23:23,320 Speaker 1: I don't think they need Jalen Hurts, I don't. I 1600 01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:25,560 Speaker 1: don't have a definition of what I would call it. 1601 01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:27,760 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you that those guys can get out 1602 01:23:27,760 --> 01:23:29,880 Speaker 1: of the pocket and make plays. Mac Jones, Yeah, the 1603 01:23:29,920 --> 01:23:32,479 Speaker 1: ability to improvise. It's like, you know, on a day 1604 01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:34,640 Speaker 1: to day basis, like we have to improvise in what 1605 01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:37,760 Speaker 1: we do. Depending on you know, you might prepare for 1606 01:23:37,840 --> 01:23:40,840 Speaker 1: an interview with Mac Jones and Mac Jones doesn't show 1607 01:23:40,920 --> 01:23:45,639 Speaker 1: up and you get Stevenson. Example, we have to seem 1608 01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:52,280 Speaker 1: sometimes we have to improvise, and like Mac Jones when 1609 01:23:52,320 --> 01:23:55,880 Speaker 1: a play doesn't go well, like he doesn't improvise. There's 1610 01:23:55,960 --> 01:23:59,000 Speaker 1: one time get sacked or throws the ball, one time 1611 01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:01,600 Speaker 1: that I can always think of when we have this conversation. 1612 01:24:02,040 --> 01:24:06,240 Speaker 1: Last last year against Baltimore fourth down, he made a play. 1613 01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:09,880 Speaker 1: He did he made a play and that was the 1614 01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:16,080 Speaker 1: one game last year. I'm not saying I'm just saying 1615 01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:19,120 Speaker 1: that that one time I made that play, and it 1616 01:24:19,240 --> 01:24:21,360 Speaker 1: was early on in the season, to the point where, 1617 01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:24,000 Speaker 1: on top of it, some of the downfield throws he 1618 01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:26,160 Speaker 1: made in that game where some of his better downfield 1619 01:24:26,160 --> 01:24:28,400 Speaker 1: throws as a pro too, and you started to say, okay, 1620 01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:30,759 Speaker 1: you know, if he can play like this and obviously 1621 01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:33,479 Speaker 1: be a little bit more under control in the turnover department, 1622 01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:36,880 Speaker 1: then at least it's it's more it has a higher 1623 01:24:36,960 --> 01:24:39,479 Speaker 1: ceiling than the other things that we have seen from him. 1624 01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:41,880 Speaker 1: But that that was one flash, and I will fully 1625 01:24:41,880 --> 01:24:45,200 Speaker 1: admit that was one little window like between somewhere between 1626 01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:49,320 Speaker 1: that between that throw and the ankle injury in the 1627 01:24:49,439 --> 01:24:51,439 Speaker 1: end of that game where I kind of felt a 1628 01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:53,240 Speaker 1: glimmer of hope last year, like that was probably the 1629 01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:55,840 Speaker 1: only little window there in the fourth quarter whatever it was, 1630 01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:58,360 Speaker 1: because once he got his ankle, You're like, well, great, 1631 01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:00,360 Speaker 1: now he's out. We're gonna you know, it's happy for 1632 01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:02,800 Speaker 1: two things that I don't know about. That is part 1633 01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:04,960 Speaker 1: of what Evan just said about, you know, like some 1634 01:25:05,080 --> 01:25:07,800 Speaker 1: of the downfield throws, if you could cut back on 1635 01:25:08,280 --> 01:25:10,560 Speaker 1: the mistakes mistakes I don't know if he can do that. 1636 01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:13,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's capable of making the downfield 1637 01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:16,720 Speaker 1: throws without putting the ball at risk. I don't know. 1638 01:25:17,280 --> 01:25:19,519 Speaker 1: I'm not telling you he's not. But I agree with 1639 01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:21,760 Speaker 1: Evan's overall assessment of that game. And I know it's 1640 01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:23,640 Speaker 1: crazy to look at the game that he threw with 1641 01:25:23,680 --> 01:25:25,360 Speaker 1: three interceptions, said that was I did. That was the 1642 01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:28,519 Speaker 1: best game because it wasn't like little swing passes to 1643 01:25:28,600 --> 01:25:31,600 Speaker 1: Romandre Stevenson that got twelve yards, right he was. It 1644 01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:34,360 Speaker 1: was throws that got the yards in that game, and 1645 01:25:35,040 --> 01:25:36,919 Speaker 1: you got caught in a little bit of a shootout 1646 01:25:37,520 --> 01:25:40,880 Speaker 1: and they didn't just melt. Yeah, he punched back. He 1647 01:25:41,040 --> 01:25:43,680 Speaker 1: made plays to punch back. Now, unfortunately there were too 1648 01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:46,320 Speaker 1: many mistakes for them to keep up. But I thought 1649 01:25:46,360 --> 01:25:48,439 Speaker 1: there were glimmers in that game that I hadn't seen. 1650 01:25:48,479 --> 01:25:51,479 Speaker 1: The only other game another one where I was like, 1651 01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:55,840 Speaker 1: that was bad defense, Like he's defense was horrible, and 1652 01:25:56,240 --> 01:25:58,920 Speaker 1: but I mean in the special team's mistakes, but in 1653 01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:01,800 Speaker 1: the fourth was another one where Bagel Yeah, I just 1654 01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:03,400 Speaker 1: I think to your point, Paul, this is it's some 1655 01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:05,600 Speaker 1: of the most interesting thing I have coming into this 1656 01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:07,920 Speaker 1: season is what do they do with Mac this year? 1657 01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:09,720 Speaker 1: Because as much as you want to say, oh, that 1658 01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:11,519 Speaker 1: was the Matt Patricia offense last year, I think a 1659 01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:13,560 Speaker 1: lot of the philosophy of that offense was Bill and 1660 01:26:13,680 --> 01:26:16,560 Speaker 1: this is the direction we want to go. How do 1661 01:26:16,640 --> 01:26:19,120 Speaker 1: they marry what Josh did on offense and what they 1662 01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:22,200 Speaker 1: tried to do on offense last year into what this is. 1663 01:26:22,280 --> 01:26:24,840 Speaker 1: I actually think that the offense last year, the roots 1664 01:26:24,880 --> 01:26:27,599 Speaker 1: of the offense last year was Alabama and they were 1665 01:26:27,680 --> 01:26:29,160 Speaker 1: trying to get him to throw the ball down the 1666 01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:31,760 Speaker 1: field like he did at Alabama. If you go watch 1667 01:26:31,880 --> 01:26:34,560 Speaker 1: Mac Jones, it's Alabama film. It's bombs away like that 1668 01:26:34,680 --> 01:26:37,759 Speaker 1: he does, you know, but he's throwing bombs to Davante 1669 01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:40,439 Speaker 1: Smith and Jalen Waddle and John Metchie. You know, he's 1670 01:26:40,479 --> 01:26:45,120 Speaker 1: not throwing bombs right right. It's like the interception through 1671 01:26:45,120 --> 01:26:47,240 Speaker 1: in the playoff game in Buffalo and the first drive 1672 01:26:47,560 --> 01:26:49,560 Speaker 1: when he actually did make a couple of plays with 1673 01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:52,479 Speaker 1: his legs that night on that drive to move the chains. 1674 01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:54,880 Speaker 1: And then he's got a guy forget if it was 1675 01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:59,200 Speaker 1: I forget who he was. Yeah, he was open throws 1676 01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:03,160 Speaker 1: late and show and well and in the same guy 1677 01:27:03,240 --> 01:27:06,880 Speaker 1: here's made an unbelievable interception. It would it would help 1678 01:27:06,920 --> 01:27:09,439 Speaker 1: if the receiver actually tried to go up and get 1679 01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:11,720 Speaker 1: I mean, here's the hope I have. Like when Mac 1680 01:27:11,840 --> 01:27:14,439 Speaker 1: was coming out, we were all told he's the most 1681 01:27:14,520 --> 01:27:17,600 Speaker 1: pro ready guy in the draft, and that's because of 1682 01:27:17,720 --> 01:27:21,439 Speaker 1: his head of his cerebral you know abilities. And then 1683 01:27:21,479 --> 01:27:24,080 Speaker 1: we see last year that we were told that there 1684 01:27:24,160 --> 01:27:26,280 Speaker 1: were no adjustments at the line, that there was no 1685 01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:31,840 Speaker 1: opportunity for him to use his brain, you know, curiosity, whatever. 1686 01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:35,560 Speaker 1: So my hope that year is whatever the offense is, 1687 01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:38,320 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it, if it doesn't take 1688 01:27:38,360 --> 01:27:41,400 Speaker 1: advantage of the thing that he's supposedly the best at, 1689 01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:45,479 Speaker 1: which is decision making, then I don't know what they're doing. Yeah, 1690 01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:47,280 Speaker 1: and that's I think to the Za Flowers of it all, 1691 01:27:47,360 --> 01:27:49,559 Speaker 1: that's you know, get back to that. And I mean, 1692 01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:51,479 Speaker 1: I just don't think you really have receivers who are 1693 01:27:51,479 --> 01:27:53,640 Speaker 1: going to separate like you had in Alabama. I mean, 1694 01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:56,120 Speaker 1: maybe we hold out hope that Taekwon Thornton's able to 1695 01:27:56,160 --> 01:27:58,559 Speaker 1: shake loose, but yeah, and also a line that gives 1696 01:27:58,640 --> 01:28:01,240 Speaker 1: him more than two and a half second the row. Well, 1697 01:28:01,360 --> 01:28:05,679 Speaker 1: but he's agreed, but he also that is also partially 1698 01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:08,400 Speaker 1: on the quarterback, like he's gotta get rid of the ball, 1699 01:28:08,640 --> 01:28:10,160 Speaker 1: and they have to have the receivers that he can 1700 01:28:10,200 --> 01:28:12,160 Speaker 1: get rid of the ball too, And he's got to 1701 01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:15,840 Speaker 1: work quickly through the progression. I think last year, the 1702 01:28:15,960 --> 01:28:18,439 Speaker 1: guy that you saw towards the especially down the stretch, 1703 01:28:18,680 --> 01:28:20,800 Speaker 1: in terms of progression speed and how fast he was 1704 01:28:20,840 --> 01:28:23,640 Speaker 1: going through things, well, I didn't even know who I 1705 01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:25,960 Speaker 1: was watching anymore, because the guy at Alabama was like 1706 01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:28,560 Speaker 1: boom boom, boom boom. The guy his rookie year was 1707 01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:31,120 Speaker 1: was similar to the guy at Alabama. And then last 1708 01:28:31,200 --> 01:28:34,640 Speaker 1: year his ability to just read the defense, get the 1709 01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:36,080 Speaker 1: ball out to the right guy. I mean, how many 1710 01:28:36,200 --> 01:28:39,320 Speaker 1: times was his back to the open receiver last year 1711 01:28:39,360 --> 01:28:41,400 Speaker 1: where he would just open the wrong direction and never 1712 01:28:41,560 --> 01:28:44,200 Speaker 1: get to that side of the field and the guy's stating, 1713 01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:46,720 Speaker 1: you know, standing in there, And for whatever reason, I 1714 01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:48,960 Speaker 1: don't want to go, I went to this rabbit hole. 1715 01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:51,439 Speaker 1: But I feel I have to say when Zappy came in, 1716 01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:54,360 Speaker 1: it looked like that, like it was three step drop, 1717 01:28:54,439 --> 01:28:57,400 Speaker 1: five step drop, get rid of it. And for whatever reason, 1718 01:28:57,560 --> 01:29:00,479 Speaker 1: it looked better with Zappi when he came in. And 1719 01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:02,840 Speaker 1: that's why I think people got the fever, you know, 1720 01:29:02,960 --> 01:29:04,800 Speaker 1: because he was a people getting rid of the ball. 1721 01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:07,080 Speaker 1: It looked better in the Cleveland game. Yeah, I'm not 1722 01:29:07,120 --> 01:29:09,120 Speaker 1: sure how much better it looked. But Cargo game or 1723 01:29:09,160 --> 01:29:12,439 Speaker 1: a Green Bay game or Detroit, people forget about People 1724 01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:14,560 Speaker 1: forget that the other team went over for six on 1725 01:29:14,680 --> 01:29:17,599 Speaker 1: fourth thound. Yeah they Yeah, this is the one time 1726 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:21,360 Speaker 1: that I will go after that, I will allow Paul 1727 01:29:21,479 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 1: to do this game. That's true because that the Lions 1728 01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:27,880 Speaker 1: were playing practice squad guys in their secondary that day. 1729 01:29:27,880 --> 01:29:31,479 Speaker 1: Because everybody was hurt for the Lions in their cornerback room, 1730 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:35,240 Speaker 1: and it really wasn't that much better. The Cleveland game 1731 01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:37,240 Speaker 1: was a different offense than what we saw in the 1732 01:29:37,320 --> 01:29:40,479 Speaker 1: other Yeah sixteen Fred. Wait back to that email, though, 1733 01:29:40,520 --> 01:29:43,280 Speaker 1: I would just like to note that Jalen Hurts, he 1734 01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:45,400 Speaker 1: didn't look the way he did until they purchased the 1735 01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:49,720 Speaker 1: pieces to make him look good. So without going after Brown, yes, 1736 01:29:50,040 --> 01:29:52,280 Speaker 1: I mean, without going after Brown those other things to 1737 01:29:52,360 --> 01:29:54,240 Speaker 1: make their offense good enough to get them to the 1738 01:29:54,280 --> 01:29:56,640 Speaker 1: super Bowl, I don't know what Jalen Hurts would have 1739 01:29:56,760 --> 01:30:00,400 Speaker 1: looked like last year. And the same thing with Um Fields. 1740 01:30:00,680 --> 01:30:02,599 Speaker 1: Fields didn't look good till they came here in Foxborow 1741 01:30:02,600 --> 01:30:05,600 Speaker 1: and then they figured it out. So I just and 1742 01:30:05,680 --> 01:30:07,640 Speaker 1: again they've added a lot of pieces. I think in 1743 01:30:07,760 --> 01:30:12,040 Speaker 1: both cases Fields and Hurts, the teams realize what they had. Yes, 1744 01:30:12,280 --> 01:30:16,120 Speaker 1: they figured okay, you know definitely with Hurts. Yeah yeah, Fields, 1745 01:30:16,160 --> 01:30:18,080 Speaker 1: I think they're still trying to figure that out, but 1746 01:30:18,280 --> 01:30:20,000 Speaker 1: already off they do know, we gotta let this guy 1747 01:30:20,080 --> 01:30:24,120 Speaker 1: run a little bit. Yeah, that's full second coaching staff. Yeah, 1748 01:30:24,360 --> 01:30:27,120 Speaker 1: that's what god Fields going was this that game here 1749 01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:30,880 Speaker 1: Monday night, they finally unveiled like a Lamar Jackson style 1750 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:34,479 Speaker 1: rush package for him, and it opened everything up Mike 1751 01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:38,000 Speaker 1: in la Evan and Mike loved the mock draft videos, 1752 01:30:38,240 --> 01:30:41,519 Speaker 1: But since when did Flowers become worthy of the fourteenth pick? 1753 01:30:41,640 --> 01:30:45,200 Speaker 1: The whole local guy out of BC thing should should 1754 01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:47,360 Speaker 1: not boost him that high in the first What makes 1755 01:30:47,439 --> 01:30:50,599 Speaker 1: him worthy of being taken at fourteen? I watched the film, 1756 01:30:52,080 --> 01:30:56,280 Speaker 1: Oh wow, it was love at first sight. Wow. I 1757 01:30:56,880 --> 01:31:00,800 Speaker 1: just I'm sorry I that was that was But I 1758 01:31:01,360 --> 01:31:04,639 Speaker 1: just feel really because I'm getting I get I've gotten 1759 01:31:04,680 --> 01:31:08,320 Speaker 1: this pushback a lot from people of all like you know, 1760 01:31:08,560 --> 01:31:11,240 Speaker 1: why are you so in love with this kid? YadA, YadA, YadA, 1761 01:31:11,400 --> 01:31:13,920 Speaker 1: Like he's only five foot nine. Well, I don't just 1762 01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:17,280 Speaker 1: look at measurements like with with with prospects, like you 1763 01:31:17,320 --> 01:31:20,720 Speaker 1: actually watch them play football, because you know, Tyreek Hill 1764 01:31:20,880 --> 01:31:23,320 Speaker 1: is like five to eight right, and and Jalen Waddle 1765 01:31:23,720 --> 01:31:26,400 Speaker 1: is basically the same size as a Flowers is five nine, 1766 01:31:26,479 --> 01:31:29,280 Speaker 1: one eighty. I don't know. I mean, I just don't 1767 01:31:29,320 --> 01:31:33,080 Speaker 1: really feel like so he doesn't he's not an impressive 1768 01:31:33,120 --> 01:31:35,160 Speaker 1: guy coming off the bus, So he's not worth the 1769 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:39,720 Speaker 1: first round pick. Like I just I don't really get that. Like, Okay, 1770 01:31:39,760 --> 01:31:41,720 Speaker 1: then they should draft Quentin Johnston and he'll be to 1771 01:31:41,840 --> 01:31:44,519 Speaker 1: kill Harry two point zero and cool, good job, Like 1772 01:31:44,640 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 1: I why does that matter how he looks in in 1773 01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:51,880 Speaker 1: spandex at the combine. I just don't see that. Say 1774 01:31:51,920 --> 01:31:53,880 Speaker 1: I'm a twenty. It wasn't even fourteen. I don't I know, right, 1775 01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:57,400 Speaker 1: and I traded down. Come on, pay attention. Todd says 1776 01:31:57,520 --> 01:32:01,720 Speaker 1: that we were talking early Kyle Murray and Bryce Young 1777 01:32:01,840 --> 01:32:06,640 Speaker 1: and uh. Todd says that they're both the exact same height. Yeah, no, 1778 01:32:06,720 --> 01:32:10,880 Speaker 1: they've Bryce Young is taller right at the combine. He 1779 01:32:11,000 --> 01:32:13,799 Speaker 1: was five ten, wasn't it, he says. According to nfl 1780 01:32:13,920 --> 01:32:17,559 Speaker 1: dot com slash Prospects, Bryce Young and Kyler Murray are 1781 01:32:17,640 --> 01:32:20,639 Speaker 1: measured in at the exact same height, but Kyler Murray 1782 01:32:20,680 --> 01:32:22,960 Speaker 1: was wearing pie heels or something that day. Yeah, I'm 1783 01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:25,360 Speaker 1: not comparing him to Kyler Murray. I'm asking what Bryce 1784 01:32:25,439 --> 01:32:28,479 Speaker 1: young size was at the combine. I thought it was five. 1785 01:32:29,479 --> 01:32:33,080 Speaker 1: So they measured Kyler at five ten and they measured 1786 01:32:33,920 --> 01:32:35,600 Speaker 1: I guess they did measure in at the same at 1787 01:32:35,640 --> 01:32:38,680 Speaker 1: the combine. But I I've stood next to both of 1788 01:32:38,720 --> 01:32:41,080 Speaker 1: them at the combine. I will say this, and again, 1789 01:32:41,320 --> 01:32:43,960 Speaker 1: I don't really care about Kyler Murray for this particular 1790 01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:47,120 Speaker 1: argument that's disrespectful to Kyler Murray. I mean I care 1791 01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:49,680 Speaker 1: about I mean, he's a human being, um. But for 1792 01:32:49,800 --> 01:32:54,880 Speaker 1: this argument, I'm much more concerned um with Bryce Young's 1793 01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:58,760 Speaker 1: size in terms of his bill thickness, Dan i AMA's height. 1794 01:32:58,960 --> 01:33:01,000 Speaker 1: I think we've seen an enough evidence in the last 1795 01:33:01,080 --> 01:33:04,240 Speaker 1: ten years that you don't have to be six five anymore. 1796 01:33:04,720 --> 01:33:06,560 Speaker 1: There are plenty of guys that are six foot and 1797 01:33:06,960 --> 01:33:11,040 Speaker 1: under that fine ways to succeed, like Russell Wilson has 1798 01:33:11,080 --> 01:33:13,160 Speaker 1: and I think this guy could do it too. But 1799 01:33:13,240 --> 01:33:17,519 Speaker 1: he's small, is thick, yeah, And this guy isn't. He's 1800 01:33:17,600 --> 01:33:22,000 Speaker 1: really slight, and I think I think he put on something. God, 1801 01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:27,000 Speaker 1: I think he put on some weight for the combine 1802 01:33:27,160 --> 01:33:29,479 Speaker 1: to make it look like, Yeah, he had a little 1803 01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:31,920 Speaker 1: bit more bulk. I think he's a sub two hundred guy, 1804 01:33:32,520 --> 01:33:35,599 Speaker 1: and he's definitely sub six feet. I know that. Maybe 1805 01:33:35,640 --> 01:33:38,280 Speaker 1: then maybe I'm wrong about the measurements, But I just 1806 01:33:38,760 --> 01:33:41,040 Speaker 1: watching the two of those guys, like, I just don't. 1807 01:33:41,439 --> 01:33:44,519 Speaker 1: Kyler is is little, like you know, I don't. I 1808 01:33:44,560 --> 01:33:46,519 Speaker 1: don't think of Bryce Young the way he runs with 1809 01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:51,599 Speaker 1: the football too. It's just like it's right, he's fast. 1810 01:33:51,640 --> 01:33:53,639 Speaker 1: If I didn't give him that my hamstrings weren't still 1811 01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:56,439 Speaker 1: killing from the weekend. I would give you the the 1812 01:33:56,560 --> 01:34:01,000 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray run build a fire Goodness. Let's get back 1813 01:34:01,040 --> 01:34:04,639 Speaker 1: to the Ace ticket helpline. We'll start with Eldred. What's up, Eldred? 1814 01:34:06,120 --> 01:34:12,799 Speaker 1: Evn Quentin tough three cone? Time for your guy? Eldred? 1815 01:34:14,240 --> 01:34:17,720 Speaker 1: What I haven't looked at it lately, but uh not? 1816 01:34:18,520 --> 01:34:22,000 Speaker 1: But my question is, uh, Evan, Yes, I like your 1817 01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:27,000 Speaker 1: draft too, thank you, But you wanna got enough guys 1818 01:34:27,040 --> 01:34:30,200 Speaker 1: on the inside. I mean, don't you think the defensive 1819 01:34:30,200 --> 01:34:31,840 Speaker 1: be thinking at you? But you ain't got nobody to 1820 01:34:31,840 --> 01:34:35,200 Speaker 1: skim them on the outside? Oh nobody you got Stave Parker. 1821 01:34:35,600 --> 01:34:38,120 Speaker 1: You hope though it might do it, but I don't know. 1822 01:34:38,960 --> 01:34:42,120 Speaker 1: I just I'm just taking the best player. I don't 1823 01:34:42,120 --> 01:34:45,439 Speaker 1: really care about where they're gonna play. And I'm also 1824 01:34:45,479 --> 01:34:48,080 Speaker 1: I don't really like I don't think you should make 1825 01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:52,200 Speaker 1: decisions off of who you should draft because you have 1826 01:34:52,520 --> 01:34:54,360 Speaker 1: Kendrick Boring on your round. What did you get for 1827 01:34:54,479 --> 01:34:58,320 Speaker 1: trading down to twenty high third round pick? Okay, it 1828 01:34:58,400 --> 01:35:02,200 Speaker 1: sounds reacing, Yeah, I oh, he asked me about the 1829 01:35:02,200 --> 01:35:04,120 Speaker 1: trade down. I just want to know what time you 1830 01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:06,240 Speaker 1: do it. You have to do it like the SPFW guys, 1831 01:35:06,280 --> 01:35:07,840 Speaker 1: and you got to get two ones in the two 1832 01:35:07,920 --> 01:35:10,880 Speaker 1: best year. Yeah. Well, a lot of people did push 1833 01:35:10,960 --> 01:35:13,439 Speaker 1: back on me and we're like that's not enough. I'm like, 1834 01:35:14,040 --> 01:35:16,200 Speaker 1: it's a there's a trade chart. Go look at all 1835 01:35:16,240 --> 01:35:19,320 Speaker 1: the chart. It's literally a chart. It tells you add 1836 01:35:19,400 --> 01:35:22,280 Speaker 1: this many points to that many point. Anyways. Uh, yeah, 1837 01:35:22,280 --> 01:35:24,400 Speaker 1: I'm not. I just want the best football player. I 1838 01:35:24,439 --> 01:35:26,439 Speaker 1: think if you get caught up in oh, what's like 1839 01:35:26,520 --> 01:35:29,280 Speaker 1: the best complimentary piece to this and if he needs 1840 01:35:29,320 --> 01:35:30,880 Speaker 1: to play here and needs to play, I think that 1841 01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:33,639 Speaker 1: that's we're getting too much into the into the weeds, 1842 01:35:33,720 --> 01:35:36,320 Speaker 1: especially for a team like the Patriots that can't draft receivers. 1843 01:35:36,600 --> 01:35:41,000 Speaker 1: Just just take the best player. Do more to mote 1844 01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:45,120 Speaker 1: myself saying be quick about it. I hate myself with 1845 01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:48,000 Speaker 1: staying there. But if they're about up at those quarterback, 1846 01:35:48,120 --> 01:35:50,160 Speaker 1: I hope we push up. Get gun dogs the corner 1847 01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:54,519 Speaker 1: instead of a wide receiver anything. Yeah, you get a 1848 01:35:54,560 --> 01:35:58,600 Speaker 1: tackle and it stuck a third round, you're not pushing older. No. 1849 01:35:59,160 --> 01:36:02,240 Speaker 1: I guess mel Hiper has the Patriots getting Gonzales in 1850 01:36:02,400 --> 01:36:08,479 Speaker 1: his latest I've seen with him, Uh getting back to 1851 01:36:08,600 --> 01:36:10,519 Speaker 1: the email. What you got on you about you waste 1852 01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:12,840 Speaker 1: that thing over with Brady? If they just gave Brady 1853 01:36:12,840 --> 01:36:15,160 Speaker 1: a couple more receivers, I pushed Brady. I doing this 1854 01:36:15,200 --> 01:36:16,519 Speaker 1: field in the wheelchair as long as you give me 1855 01:36:16,560 --> 01:36:18,320 Speaker 1: to a super Bowl. If you de man, what do 1856 01:36:18,360 --> 01:36:21,400 Speaker 1: you want it? I'm receivers and being good to go. 1857 01:36:22,840 --> 01:36:24,439 Speaker 1: I think I have a better three count time than 1858 01:36:24,479 --> 01:36:28,240 Speaker 1: Clinton Johnston. So let's go to Kevin and Sanfrand, what's 1859 01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:36,400 Speaker 1: up Ken the measurables? Kevin? Kevin, Kevin? I left Mike 1860 01:36:36,439 --> 01:36:40,680 Speaker 1: call in s he's not there? All right? Corey in 1861 01:36:40,760 --> 01:36:44,439 Speaker 1: South Carolina? What's up? Corey? Hey? What's up you guys? 1862 01:36:44,520 --> 01:36:48,519 Speaker 1: How are y'all doing? Good? Good? Good good? Hey? All right. 1863 01:36:48,640 --> 01:36:50,360 Speaker 1: I want to be a little bit of a voice 1864 01:36:50,400 --> 01:36:54,560 Speaker 1: of the reason in some of this chat because I 1865 01:36:54,680 --> 01:36:58,679 Speaker 1: think that, like specifically Evan and Paul, I think there's 1866 01:36:58,680 --> 01:37:00,679 Speaker 1: a lot of Feature fans to agree with you, guys. 1867 01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:03,280 Speaker 1: You've got to get more playmakers with a free agency 1868 01:37:03,439 --> 01:37:06,320 Speaker 1: the draft developing guys. I think you got to get 1869 01:37:06,360 --> 01:37:08,799 Speaker 1: the better offensive line play. I think we were decent 1870 01:37:09,000 --> 01:37:11,720 Speaker 1: in the run game last year, but I think that 1871 01:37:11,960 --> 01:37:15,479 Speaker 1: pass blocking against like elite pass rush, critical downs, those 1872 01:37:15,479 --> 01:37:17,719 Speaker 1: are rough and you've got to get better quarterback play. 1873 01:37:18,280 --> 01:37:20,439 Speaker 1: But I kind of want to come to Max's defense 1874 01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:24,200 Speaker 1: in two areas because I think it's a little bit overlooked. 1875 01:37:24,240 --> 01:37:29,840 Speaker 1: In one is, don't overlook the ability to scheme guys open, right, 1876 01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:32,400 Speaker 1: Like you look at some of the plays last year 1877 01:37:32,439 --> 01:37:36,439 Speaker 1: and critical downs, third downs, we just didn't have options there. 1878 01:37:36,680 --> 01:37:40,479 Speaker 1: There There wasn't a check down, There wasn't um a 1879 01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:44,880 Speaker 1: guy that that is scheme to break through the seam 1880 01:37:45,160 --> 01:37:48,439 Speaker 1: or to um kind of take advantage of of an 1881 01:37:48,520 --> 01:37:53,759 Speaker 1: outside linebacker rush. And then two, actually having those guys 1882 01:37:54,320 --> 01:37:57,599 Speaker 1: that can press the triangle, right, I know it's it's Evan. 1883 01:37:57,640 --> 01:37:59,519 Speaker 1: You talk a lot about having a guy that can 1884 01:37:59,560 --> 01:38:02,760 Speaker 1: break it at the top or having a tall guy 1885 01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:05,160 Speaker 1: that can can beat out guys. I think you need that. 1886 01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:07,800 Speaker 1: I think you need someone that can that can make 1887 01:38:07,920 --> 01:38:09,479 Speaker 1: room in space, and I think you need a tight 1888 01:38:09,600 --> 01:38:12,400 Speaker 1: end that can press the triangle and take advantage of 1889 01:38:12,439 --> 01:38:16,599 Speaker 1: different coverages. So I totally agree with you guys. There's 1890 01:38:16,600 --> 01:38:17,920 Speaker 1: a lot of the needs to go on, but I 1891 01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:20,840 Speaker 1: think you got to give Mack a little bit of 1892 01:38:20,880 --> 01:38:26,400 Speaker 1: grace in that situation last year. Press the triangle? Nice, Okay, 1893 01:38:26,680 --> 01:38:30,640 Speaker 1: thanks Corey. Ye, you're not making fun of him for that, right, 1894 01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:33,920 Speaker 1: that's that's right out of you. Yeah. I just said 1895 01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:35,559 Speaker 1: he knows some ball. Okay, that's right out of your 1896 01:38:35,800 --> 01:38:38,800 Speaker 1: What does that mean for us idiots? Middle of the field? 1897 01:38:38,920 --> 01:38:41,040 Speaker 1: Like press the triangle? I give the two safeties? Right, 1898 01:38:41,080 --> 01:38:42,920 Speaker 1: you have the linebacker in the middle field, Like, who's 1899 01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:49,160 Speaker 1: who's opening up that that middle area in his own? Yeah? Okay, yeah, 1900 01:38:49,400 --> 01:38:52,040 Speaker 1: who's who's who's opening it up for everybody? I would 1901 01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:54,160 Speaker 1: have soccer that you work in. I would just argue 1902 01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:56,560 Speaker 1: a lot. There's a lot of triangle reads too, and 1903 01:38:56,640 --> 01:38:59,920 Speaker 1: progressions for quarterbacks. I don't know which direction he was 1904 01:39:00,360 --> 01:39:03,200 Speaker 1: going with that, necessarily, what I make that that joke 1905 01:39:03,240 --> 01:39:07,479 Speaker 1: about soccer? You make fun of me? What time it's given? 1906 01:39:07,520 --> 01:39:09,439 Speaker 1: Go set up a child? It's not that. It's not 1907 01:39:09,560 --> 01:39:13,240 Speaker 1: that complicate. H CJ. In Kansas City? What's up to 1908 01:39:13,760 --> 01:39:16,880 Speaker 1: you change the geometry of paying up? CJ? So are 1909 01:39:16,880 --> 01:39:19,000 Speaker 1: you in Kansas City?

I moved out 1913 01:39:31,920 --> 01:39:33,800 Speaker 1: here in like Oa, but it was one of the 1914 01:39:33,840 --> 01:39:35,599 Speaker 1: first places people told me I had to go. Yeah, 1915 01:39:35,600 --> 01:39:37,439 Speaker 1: it's it's really good. So are you going to go 1916 01:39:37,479 --> 01:39:41,840 Speaker 1: to the draft? Yeah? So I don't know how they 1917 01:39:41,920 --> 01:39:45,000 Speaker 1: do the other places, but me and a co worker 1918 01:39:45,040 --> 01:39:47,360 Speaker 1: of mine, we're gonna go. Um, we had up like 1919 01:39:48,160 --> 01:39:50,200 Speaker 1: it's like, it's not reserved tickets, but we had to 1920 01:39:50,280 --> 01:39:53,840 Speaker 1: put our information in to get access. I don't know 1921 01:39:53,880 --> 01:39:55,320 Speaker 1: if that's how it works all the time or not. 1922 01:39:55,520 --> 01:40:01,640 Speaker 1: But nothing you had to pay for. Cool st still waiting. Yeah, 1923 01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:05,920 Speaker 1: we're still waiting to find out nice. Okay, So here's 1924 01:40:05,920 --> 01:40:09,759 Speaker 1: my question, um, talking about the draft? If U and Evan, 1925 01:40:09,800 --> 01:40:11,320 Speaker 1: I think I already know you're answered to this based 1926 01:40:11,360 --> 01:40:15,280 Speaker 1: on your last show. But if Christian Gonzalez cornerback is 1927 01:40:15,320 --> 01:40:18,760 Speaker 1: still there, say Flowers is there and Harris Johnson are 1928 01:40:18,840 --> 01:40:21,599 Speaker 1: there for our fake and fourteen? Who are you guys taken? 1929 01:40:21,760 --> 01:40:24,680 Speaker 1: Christian Gonzalez? Yeah, that would be my pa. Do that. 1930 01:40:25,800 --> 01:40:28,800 Speaker 1: I'm in I think I think it's a huge year. Yeah, 1931 01:40:28,800 --> 01:40:30,679 Speaker 1: my pick would be Gonzalez because I think that would 1932 01:40:30,720 --> 01:40:34,360 Speaker 1: be the best corner, yeah, and I think that's a 1933 01:40:34,439 --> 01:40:37,680 Speaker 1: harder positions stud Yeah. I think corner two just as 1934 01:40:37,880 --> 01:40:40,200 Speaker 1: because of what we discussed, the wide receiver class just 1935 01:40:40,320 --> 01:40:44,439 Speaker 1: like isn't as strong, and so I think that you 1936 01:40:44,439 --> 01:40:46,320 Speaker 1: can have the opportunity to get another wide receiver later, 1937 01:40:46,400 --> 01:40:48,920 Speaker 1: but you have the opportunity to get the best corner allegedly, 1938 01:40:49,080 --> 01:40:51,240 Speaker 1: so you should get them. I think you can get 1939 01:40:51,240 --> 01:40:53,559 Speaker 1: discount slot receive. I mean, not as good as they flowers, 1940 01:40:53,600 --> 01:40:55,639 Speaker 1: but there are in the middle of the field later. 1941 01:40:55,800 --> 01:40:58,559 Speaker 1: It's just I just like we talked about it a lot, 1942 01:40:58,640 --> 01:41:01,000 Speaker 1: like how does this defense get over the edge? Because 1943 01:41:01,000 --> 01:41:02,680 Speaker 1: they've been pretty good and I think it's almost like 1944 01:41:02,760 --> 01:41:04,920 Speaker 1: they're good enough to lull you into a false sense 1945 01:41:04,960 --> 01:41:07,599 Speaker 1: of security, saying I think the Patriots defense is pretty good. 1946 01:41:07,600 --> 01:41:09,839 Speaker 1: I mean by the numbers, they are a pretty good defense, 1947 01:41:09,920 --> 01:41:12,840 Speaker 1: but they haven't been good enough against the really good 1948 01:41:12,920 --> 01:41:14,680 Speaker 1: teeth and they have to get over that hump. And 1949 01:41:14,760 --> 01:41:18,439 Speaker 1: I think the A one cornerback is a big piece 1950 01:41:18,479 --> 01:41:21,160 Speaker 1: of it. And I mean we're gonna talk about defensive 1951 01:41:21,280 --> 01:41:23,960 Speaker 1: ents too. I think that's a whole nother you debate about, 1952 01:41:24,439 --> 01:41:26,599 Speaker 1: which is weird because I feel like doing this forever. 1953 01:41:27,360 --> 01:41:29,519 Speaker 1: Patriots fans usually are like, we need a pass rusher, 1954 01:41:29,720 --> 01:41:31,600 Speaker 1: and you just don't hear it this year, And I 1955 01:41:31,680 --> 01:41:33,280 Speaker 1: know you got chewed on and you got to coming 1956 01:41:33,320 --> 01:41:35,400 Speaker 1: off good seasons. And they're both back, but you know 1957 01:41:35,520 --> 01:41:37,400 Speaker 1: one's over thirty the other center in the last year 1958 01:41:37,439 --> 01:41:40,400 Speaker 1: of his deal. So you know there's something there too 1959 01:41:40,520 --> 01:41:42,840 Speaker 1: that I don't think we've quite pinned down yet. The 1960 01:41:42,960 --> 01:41:45,599 Speaker 1: Patriots of the past would not have a million holes 1961 01:41:45,640 --> 01:41:47,680 Speaker 1: on their roster that they need to fill, so they 1962 01:41:47,720 --> 01:41:50,679 Speaker 1: would take an edge rusher in the first round because 1963 01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:54,879 Speaker 1: they had a whole to fill next year at that position. 1964 01:41:55,320 --> 01:41:58,080 Speaker 1: Now they are kind of in a position where they 1965 01:41:58,120 --> 01:42:01,160 Speaker 1: don't really have that luxury anymore. But if this was 1966 01:42:01,479 --> 01:42:03,960 Speaker 1: the Patriots ten years ago, then a guy like Nolan 1967 01:42:04,000 --> 01:42:05,840 Speaker 1: Smith or Lucas Van Nast or someone like that, it 1968 01:42:05,880 --> 01:42:07,960 Speaker 1: would be in every mock draft who was the guy. 1969 01:42:10,640 --> 01:42:13,040 Speaker 1: I think the Texas Tech guy that they were Tyree 1970 01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:16,040 Speaker 1: Wilson tied they would tie to today. They expressed it. 1971 01:42:16,360 --> 01:42:18,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's here or coming for a 1972 01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:20,760 Speaker 1: thirty or they went to Friday, did they went to 1973 01:42:20,920 --> 01:42:23,080 Speaker 1: watch him or whatever? But I just thought that was 1974 01:42:23,160 --> 01:42:26,639 Speaker 1: interesting because he is I don't know, kind of considered 1975 01:42:26,680 --> 01:42:29,320 Speaker 1: to be a top ten pick, right, So if you're 1976 01:42:30,920 --> 01:42:34,360 Speaker 1: if you're in there, are you maybe hoping that the 1977 01:42:34,479 --> 01:42:36,320 Speaker 1: board unfolds in a different way like we talked to 1978 01:42:36,360 --> 01:42:38,880 Speaker 1: beginning of this show, with the quarterbacks maybe pushing some 1979 01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:42,880 Speaker 1: good players down, or might the Patriots target a guy 1980 01:42:43,479 --> 01:42:45,040 Speaker 1: go up again? I think it's a great question, and 1981 01:42:45,080 --> 01:42:46,880 Speaker 1: I mean it's something I think we've been circling with 1982 01:42:46,920 --> 01:42:48,800 Speaker 1: Evan this whole spring of like, you know, if the 1983 01:42:48,920 --> 01:42:51,080 Speaker 1: right tackle isn't there and you don't feel great about 1984 01:42:51,120 --> 01:42:53,120 Speaker 1: Zave Flowers, you know, maybe they feel like they don't 1985 01:42:53,120 --> 01:42:56,080 Speaker 1: even think Zave Flowers maybe is like a top twenty pick, 1986 01:42:56,160 --> 01:42:59,760 Speaker 1: Like that's maybe right, I mean, if it's the right 1987 01:43:00,280 --> 01:43:01,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not going to bang the table for 1988 01:43:01,479 --> 01:43:03,560 Speaker 1: Devin Witherspoon. I mean, I'm not going to bang the 1989 01:43:03,600 --> 01:43:05,360 Speaker 1: table for Joey Porter Jr. You know what the worst 1990 01:43:05,400 --> 01:43:07,519 Speaker 1: part about this draft is, I'm not being at the 1991 01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:10,040 Speaker 1: table for anyone. Yeah, Gonzalez, I would be. It's not 1992 01:43:10,160 --> 01:43:11,960 Speaker 1: because I don't think they are good players in this draft. 1993 01:43:12,040 --> 01:43:13,640 Speaker 1: It's just that, like there's after you get through the 1994 01:43:13,720 --> 01:43:17,640 Speaker 1: first so many holes. I'm not banging the table just 1995 01:43:17,720 --> 01:43:20,080 Speaker 1: for one of them to get filled. Like, I think 1996 01:43:20,120 --> 01:43:21,960 Speaker 1: they have options. I think you can make a case 1997 01:43:22,040 --> 01:43:23,439 Speaker 1: for a lot of guys. Yeah, I think they'll fill 1998 01:43:23,479 --> 01:43:27,000 Speaker 1: a hole with whoever they take. Patty and Agawam chimes in. 1999 01:43:27,080 --> 01:43:29,799 Speaker 1: He says about Bill's draft, He says, Bill took touchdown 2000 01:43:29,880 --> 01:43:32,920 Speaker 1: Tommy Vardell with the ninth pick in the ninety two draft. 2001 01:43:33,240 --> 01:43:35,880 Speaker 1: Hopefully Bill has evolved a tad since then. Something to 2002 01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:38,799 Speaker 1: mull Over. I don't know if he has Tommy Vardell, 2003 01:43:38,920 --> 01:43:42,240 Speaker 1: but remember that how bitter he is. Time comes to 2004 01:43:42,320 --> 01:43:45,880 Speaker 1: Bill always. Yeah, the roster building in the last three 2005 01:43:45,960 --> 01:43:48,760 Speaker 1: or four years, it's just lost them. Sorry, the track 2006 01:43:48,800 --> 01:43:51,439 Speaker 1: record speaks for itself. I'm only going off the receipts 2007 01:43:51,520 --> 01:43:54,760 Speaker 1: like I can't. I can't change what he's done. But 2008 01:43:54,840 --> 01:43:59,080 Speaker 1: Tyree Wilson's a nice interesting player because he's not that 2009 01:43:59,680 --> 01:44:03,320 Speaker 1: like Screamer Von Miller, Bendy edge rusher that a lot 2010 01:44:03,400 --> 01:44:05,880 Speaker 1: of teams want to take in the top ten, like 2011 01:44:05,920 --> 01:44:08,880 Speaker 1: a Will Anderson type. So he is somebody that the 2012 01:44:09,400 --> 01:44:13,360 Speaker 1: league might jim nage, the league might be a little 2013 01:44:13,400 --> 01:44:16,519 Speaker 1: bit lower on than some of the mock drafts are 2014 01:44:16,640 --> 01:44:23,679 Speaker 1: because he doesn't have that prototypical double digit sack guy game. 2015 01:44:23,880 --> 01:44:26,360 Speaker 1: But at the same time, if you're the Patriots like 2016 01:44:26,600 --> 01:44:30,720 Speaker 1: Josh Jay, Judean, Barmore, Tyree Wilson, I think all those 2017 01:44:30,800 --> 01:44:32,240 Speaker 1: guys can be on the field for you at the 2018 01:44:32,280 --> 01:44:35,400 Speaker 1: same time, and that that becomes a front. That's that's 2019 01:44:35,400 --> 01:44:38,280 Speaker 1: a problems, not that it isn't already, But I'm wondering 2020 01:44:38,400 --> 01:44:40,560 Speaker 1: back to the owners meetings when we were talking to 2021 01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:44,800 Speaker 1: mister Craft, how important he said this draft was going 2022 01:44:44,840 --> 01:44:48,320 Speaker 1: to be, if he's gonna have potentially a larger state 2023 01:44:48,360 --> 01:44:51,000 Speaker 1: than he usually would in terms of like what and 2024 01:44:51,120 --> 01:44:55,240 Speaker 1: who we draft um, because he said, like you essentially 2025 01:44:55,400 --> 01:44:57,560 Speaker 1: like build your success base off this draft, and we 2026 01:44:57,640 --> 01:45:01,519 Speaker 1: haven't drafted well. So I'm wondering if he nudge and 2027 01:45:01,680 --> 01:45:03,519 Speaker 1: ensure that we do draft well with the picks that 2028 01:45:03,600 --> 01:45:06,640 Speaker 1: we have. Well, I'm sure he's, you know, telling them 2029 01:45:06,720 --> 01:45:08,560 Speaker 1: you got to do a good job. The question is, 2030 01:45:08,640 --> 01:45:10,800 Speaker 1: I don't think Robert's going to be in the room saying, oh, 2031 01:45:10,920 --> 01:45:14,280 Speaker 1: let's pick say Flowers, but I think he might if 2032 01:45:14,360 --> 01:45:16,960 Speaker 1: there's an influence that he's going to have. It's telling 2033 01:45:17,080 --> 01:45:21,080 Speaker 1: Bill listen to Matt grow more. Yeah, maybe maybe, I 2034 01:45:21,120 --> 01:45:23,120 Speaker 1: don't know. I got. Can I make one more point 2035 01:45:23,160 --> 01:45:25,760 Speaker 1: about it? Sorry? Maybe do we have faith in that? 2036 01:45:26,880 --> 01:45:30,080 Speaker 1: Because it's just made. I don't mean to no, I 2037 01:45:30,160 --> 01:45:33,519 Speaker 1: actually don't attack me. I actually don't think that. The 2038 01:45:33,680 --> 01:45:36,160 Speaker 1: influence that I want mister Kraft to have is not 2039 01:45:36,240 --> 01:45:38,400 Speaker 1: to tell him to listen to Macro. The influence that 2040 01:45:38,439 --> 01:45:39,920 Speaker 1: I want mister Kraft to have is can we not 2041 01:45:40,080 --> 01:45:42,160 Speaker 1: pick cole Strange in the first round? Like? How do 2042 01:45:42,240 --> 01:45:46,800 Speaker 1: you do that? You know? Conventional? Can we stick it? Well? Yeah, 2043 01:45:46,840 --> 01:45:48,840 Speaker 1: on the fairway. But I think let's let's have our 2044 01:45:49,280 --> 01:45:51,800 Speaker 1: saying stack our board and let's what's state. Well, what 2045 01:45:51,880 --> 01:45:55,000 Speaker 1: I'm saying is I think, you know, I we're spending 2046 01:45:55,000 --> 01:45:58,080 Speaker 1: all this money on our scouts. Let's listen to our scout. Okay, 2047 01:45:58,120 --> 01:46:00,879 Speaker 1: so I would. It's the old thing he had with Parcel. 2048 01:46:01,080 --> 01:46:02,840 Speaker 1: It's always dangerous to do this, but I'm gonna do 2049 01:46:02,920 --> 01:46:05,960 Speaker 1: it anyway. Do you really think that Cole Strange was 2050 01:46:06,160 --> 01:46:09,840 Speaker 1: one of their top twenty rated prospects last year? The Patriots? Yeah, 2051 01:46:10,240 --> 01:46:13,200 Speaker 1: he can't be. I just can't imagine. It was so 2052 01:46:13,360 --> 01:46:16,599 Speaker 1: like Van's point. If Robert, Robert's not saying, hey, listen, 2053 01:46:16,640 --> 01:46:19,400 Speaker 1: I really really like this a Flowers kid man. I mean, 2054 01:46:19,439 --> 01:46:24,200 Speaker 1: I think his three kids like, no, he's not doing that, okay, 2055 01:46:25,040 --> 01:46:27,760 Speaker 1: but he can't say can we just establish a board 2056 01:46:27,800 --> 01:46:31,759 Speaker 1: and reasonably stick to it? Because I think they veered 2057 01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:36,519 Speaker 1: wildly with Cole Strange last year. Now I don't know that. Yeah, 2058 01:46:36,600 --> 01:46:40,320 Speaker 1: for all I know, we had this. We had him 2059 01:46:40,360 --> 01:46:43,479 Speaker 1: as our twenty first rated prospect and everybody else had 2060 01:46:43,520 --> 01:46:45,920 Speaker 1: him at one hundred and twenty one. I don't know 2061 01:46:46,160 --> 01:46:49,040 Speaker 1: that might be true. I just it just screamed of 2062 01:46:49,200 --> 01:46:52,880 Speaker 1: need last I think they're desperate, panicked and jumped off 2063 01:46:52,920 --> 01:46:55,360 Speaker 1: his board, and I think that's when you get in trouble. 2064 01:46:55,760 --> 01:46:59,400 Speaker 1: I just can you not have the defending Super Bowl 2065 01:46:59,479 --> 01:47:02,519 Speaker 1: champions laughing at you on the night of the draft, Like, 2066 01:47:02,600 --> 01:47:05,400 Speaker 1: can we just make a pick that it doesn't have 2067 01:47:05,600 --> 01:47:07,200 Speaker 1: to be Zay Fly? It doesn't have to be the 2068 01:47:07,280 --> 01:47:09,200 Speaker 1: guy we're all talking about, right? Like? I think that's 2069 01:47:09,280 --> 01:47:11,479 Speaker 1: one thing that I did the mail bag this week 2070 01:47:11,520 --> 01:47:13,120 Speaker 1: and a lot of people asked me, like, what's the 2071 01:47:13,400 --> 01:47:15,680 Speaker 1: who's the guy that nobody's talking about? Because we know 2072 01:47:15,800 --> 01:47:17,479 Speaker 1: Bill and he's gonna take some tell you, when I 2073 01:47:17,520 --> 01:47:19,880 Speaker 1: get my book, he's gonna take a lot of first 2074 01:47:19,960 --> 01:47:21,960 Speaker 1: round picks that I think no one's talking about, like 2075 01:47:22,120 --> 01:47:24,439 Speaker 1: but their first round picks exactly. That was a fourth 2076 01:47:24,520 --> 01:47:26,840 Speaker 1: round pick that no one was talking about. Right, Can 2077 01:47:26,880 --> 01:47:30,439 Speaker 1: we just take somebody at fourteen that all of us 2078 01:47:30,880 --> 01:47:34,320 Speaker 1: on our shows, mel kiper Daniel Jeremiah is like, yeah, 2079 01:47:34,640 --> 01:47:36,160 Speaker 1: that you know that he was right in that range. 2080 01:47:36,280 --> 01:47:38,960 Speaker 1: You know we had him. I had him at at 2081 01:47:39,040 --> 01:47:41,439 Speaker 1: sixteen on my big board, So big whoop that they 2082 01:47:41,479 --> 01:47:43,760 Speaker 1: took him two spots earlier than I had him or something. 2083 01:47:43,920 --> 01:47:47,599 Speaker 1: Just one's going to argue that, right, Just get somebody 2084 01:47:47,640 --> 01:47:50,439 Speaker 1: that is a brand name. That's it. That's what I've 2085 01:47:50,439 --> 01:47:53,720 Speaker 1: been saying all offseason. I don't want any like off 2086 01:47:53,840 --> 01:47:57,160 Speaker 1: brand Dollar Store. I need like a premium player. Pick 2087 01:47:58,000 --> 01:48:01,840 Speaker 1: a premium player picks. It's very I doesn't want a 2088 01:48:01,880 --> 01:48:07,920 Speaker 1: brand name. Would be if they if they got Handon 2089 01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:12,639 Speaker 1: Hooker at some point, I would be so excited. So yes, 2090 01:48:13,000 --> 01:48:16,640 Speaker 1: and back to that, I do think that if they 2091 01:48:16,680 --> 01:48:18,960 Speaker 1: are going to, you know, pick a third quarterback to 2092 01:48:19,040 --> 01:48:20,519 Speaker 1: be on this team, I wanted to be someone with 2093 01:48:20,600 --> 01:48:22,680 Speaker 1: a different skill set than what we already have. So 2094 01:48:23,120 --> 01:48:26,639 Speaker 1: whether it's Hendon Hooker or dtr who we were able 2095 01:48:26,680 --> 01:48:28,559 Speaker 1: to see an East West Shrine Bowl and the Patriots 2096 01:48:28,600 --> 01:48:31,000 Speaker 1: had a chance to talk to him. Whether it's someone 2097 01:48:31,080 --> 01:48:34,200 Speaker 1: with their skill set and their playmaking ability. I feel 2098 01:48:34,240 --> 01:48:37,080 Speaker 1: like that would be a good fit for the third 2099 01:48:37,160 --> 01:48:39,120 Speaker 1: spot in the quarterback ground. Yeah quick, who am I? 2100 01:48:39,240 --> 01:48:42,160 Speaker 1: Game ready? These are all former Patriots? Who am I? 2101 01:48:42,960 --> 01:48:45,839 Speaker 1: I was a hard hitting linebacker that won two national 2102 01:48:45,960 --> 01:48:50,559 Speaker 1: titles in college. Dante Higtower incorrect, handycats and Moore you're out, 2103 01:48:50,840 --> 01:48:56,120 Speaker 1: You're out. You're both to win us didn't guess? I contributed? 2104 01:48:56,320 --> 01:48:59,960 Speaker 1: I contributed. I contributed my rookie year, playing a long 2105 01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:05,000 Speaker 1: alongside Drawdmeo and Rob Ninkovich. This is not Dante Hytower. Nope, 2106 01:49:07,560 --> 01:49:11,439 Speaker 1: I contributed my rookie No, no guesses one more, Gary Cuton. No, 2107 01:49:11,880 --> 01:49:16,000 Speaker 1: you're out. It's up to Tamara. I had two stints 2108 01:49:16,320 --> 01:49:20,040 Speaker 1: with both the Patriots and the Bills before retiring. Oh 2109 01:49:24,520 --> 01:49:28,760 Speaker 1: do you watch videos on the internet? Now? Definitely? Person? 2110 01:49:29,120 --> 01:49:32,960 Speaker 1: Where is this going? Where is this going? Brandon Spikes? Yeah, 2111 01:49:34,080 --> 01:49:40,559 Speaker 1: you won two national championships at Florida. I guess good one, um, 2112 01:49:40,640 --> 01:49:43,040 Speaker 1: next one. I signed with New England before my fifth 2113 01:49:43,160 --> 01:49:47,560 Speaker 1: year as wide receiver in the league. I signed with 2114 01:49:47,600 --> 01:49:51,360 Speaker 1: New England before my fifth year No. One. I was 2115 01:49:51,520 --> 01:49:54,599 Speaker 1: a reliable target for Brady during the team's three Super 2116 01:49:54,640 --> 01:50:01,240 Speaker 1: Bowl runs in four years. David pad correct deuce alright 2117 01:50:01,680 --> 01:50:05,479 Speaker 1: was looking at the right, uh next one two more. 2118 01:50:05,920 --> 01:50:08,479 Speaker 1: I was a pass catching running back for the Patriots 2119 01:50:08,520 --> 01:50:11,880 Speaker 1: and routinely put up thirty to forty catch seasons as 2120 01:50:11,960 --> 01:50:18,280 Speaker 1: a player former Patriot. I spent my entire career as 2121 01:50:18,320 --> 01:50:25,840 Speaker 1: a Patriot. N Kevin fok last one. This one's worth 2122 01:50:25,920 --> 01:50:32,640 Speaker 1: three thirty to forty said, it's a uh final, This 2123 01:50:32,800 --> 01:50:35,519 Speaker 1: is the bonus. I was a backup to Drew Bledsoe 2124 01:50:35,560 --> 01:50:38,479 Speaker 1: and spent majority of my career as a Patriot before 2125 01:50:38,560 --> 01:50:43,040 Speaker 1: going to Florida to finish my playing career. Seriously, you 2126 01:50:43,120 --> 01:50:47,240 Speaker 1: know what. Seriously, this is like a joke. Okay, but 2127 01:50:47,880 --> 01:50:51,000 Speaker 1: didn't make a guess. I feel like I knew who 2128 01:50:51,040 --> 01:50:53,800 Speaker 1: it is saying maybe the one person I know who 2129 01:50:53,800 --> 01:50:58,360 Speaker 1: it is. I don't want to get it wrong because 2130 01:50:58,360 --> 01:50:59,880 Speaker 1: I think everyone's gonna get it in the next one. 2131 01:51:00,000 --> 01:51:02,400 Speaker 1: But anyway, I have I have been a part of 2132 01:51:02,479 --> 01:51:07,639 Speaker 1: the team's Super Bowl success and a few losses. Said 2133 01:51:07,680 --> 01:51:11,240 Speaker 1: so lack. Yes, I think I think I was gonna 2134 01:51:11,280 --> 01:51:13,920 Speaker 1: say so after the first one. I was too obvious. 2135 01:51:14,200 --> 01:51:17,000 Speaker 1: I went out. I wasn't get the Florida thing. What 2136 01:51:17,120 --> 01:51:20,519 Speaker 1: does that mean he went to Miami. Oh, I'm just thinking, 2137 01:51:20,640 --> 01:51:23,479 Speaker 1: like he went to Florida like he retired. I didn't. 2138 01:51:23,520 --> 01:51:28,519 Speaker 1: I didn't get it. I mean it's Miami generally it 2139 01:51:28,640 --> 01:51:31,320 Speaker 1: is in Florida. Was Tampa Bay? I know a different team? 2140 01:51:31,560 --> 01:51:33,599 Speaker 1: Well that's you don't want to just say it? Then? 2141 01:51:33,760 --> 01:51:36,200 Speaker 1: I think it was well worded, like being part of 2142 01:51:36,439 --> 01:51:39,360 Speaker 1: he was part of in the broadcasting booth, you know, 2143 01:51:41,360 --> 01:51:43,800 Speaker 1: boy just pooh pooing it? No, I just does that 2144 01:51:43,920 --> 01:51:48,519 Speaker 1: make it work? Hey? A lot of people in this 2145 01:51:48,640 --> 01:51:50,479 Speaker 1: room have Super Bowl rings, right, Like if you if 2146 01:51:50,520 --> 01:51:52,320 Speaker 1: you're in the broadcast booth and you're part of it, 2147 01:51:52,479 --> 01:51:55,200 Speaker 1: then I guess Fred and Paul were part of it too. 2148 01:51:55,360 --> 01:51:56,880 Speaker 1: If you're in part of the pregame show, I think 2149 01:51:56,880 --> 01:52:03,760 Speaker 1: you're part of it. Yeah. But oh wow, thanks, let's Ken, 2150 01:52:05,560 --> 01:52:09,800 Speaker 1: Caleb and Knoxville. Right. Um. He says. My viewpoint on 2151 01:52:09,880 --> 01:52:12,080 Speaker 1: the season last year was Bill knew last year there 2152 01:52:12,160 --> 01:52:15,000 Speaker 1: was absolutely no way they would have a shot at contending, 2153 01:52:15,040 --> 01:52:18,439 Speaker 1: and there was nobody better to get at Offensive Coiner 2154 01:52:18,479 --> 01:52:21,519 Speaker 1: than waiting a year for Bill O'Brien to become available 2155 01:52:21,560 --> 01:52:23,519 Speaker 1: and the head coach should have been fired after meeting 2156 01:52:23,600 --> 01:52:26,840 Speaker 1: with him in Sabin last offseason. Bill will never tank 2157 01:52:27,360 --> 01:52:29,960 Speaker 1: or throw a season, but I truly believe last year. 2158 01:52:31,120 --> 01:52:33,439 Speaker 1: But I truly believe last season was a product of 2159 01:52:33,520 --> 01:52:36,400 Speaker 1: Bill setting things up for a longer term plan than 2160 01:52:36,520 --> 01:52:39,400 Speaker 1: just the twenty twenty two season. I believe he hasn't 2161 01:52:39,439 --> 01:52:42,840 Speaker 1: been vocal about Patricia and Judge doing bad jobs because 2162 01:52:42,920 --> 01:52:45,960 Speaker 1: ultimately Bill knew they were put in positions to fail 2163 01:52:46,600 --> 01:52:49,599 Speaker 1: all for the betterment of the team years down the line. 2164 01:52:49,680 --> 01:52:52,320 Speaker 1: Not saying that ideology is right or wrong, just the 2165 01:52:52,439 --> 01:52:55,080 Speaker 1: only thing that makes sense to me based on Bill's 2166 01:52:55,080 --> 01:52:58,320 Speaker 1: track record, like he's seventy years old. Like it's just 2167 01:52:58,439 --> 01:52:59,600 Speaker 1: And I think this gets to the heart of the 2168 01:52:59,640 --> 01:53:02,960 Speaker 1: matter of like where's the urgency, Like you don't really 2169 01:53:03,120 --> 01:53:05,720 Speaker 1: like nobody's going to be upset in seven or eight 2170 01:53:05,840 --> 01:53:07,160 Speaker 1: years from now when you've been out of the league 2171 01:53:07,160 --> 01:53:09,479 Speaker 1: for four years and the team stinks, like they just 2172 01:53:09,640 --> 01:53:12,720 Speaker 1: loved you to see you go all in and take 2173 01:53:12,760 --> 01:53:15,760 Speaker 1: advantage of what people have come to believe, you know, 2174 01:53:16,240 --> 01:53:18,240 Speaker 1: is the greatest coach of all time. And that's that 2175 01:53:18,439 --> 01:53:20,800 Speaker 1: lack of urgency. I think it just permeates the last 2176 01:53:21,200 --> 01:53:23,240 Speaker 1: three seasons, and I don't. I don't get it. I don't. 2177 01:53:23,280 --> 01:53:25,120 Speaker 1: It's like it's like somebody who's coaching like they're gonna 2178 01:53:25,120 --> 01:53:27,920 Speaker 1: coach forever. Mister Kraft made that clear when we were 2179 01:53:28,080 --> 01:53:31,559 Speaker 1: in Arizona that he is looking to see a change 2180 01:53:31,720 --> 01:53:37,880 Speaker 1: this season, like playoffs, playoffs, not in a couple of years. 2181 01:53:38,160 --> 01:53:40,040 Speaker 1: Last year was to win playoff games. This year it 2182 01:53:40,120 --> 01:53:42,320 Speaker 1: was just to make the playoffs. Do you think this 2183 01:53:42,479 --> 01:53:44,360 Speaker 1: year he does think he's going to coach forever, like 2184 01:53:44,439 --> 01:53:47,519 Speaker 1: not forever, but like you know, like like he's he's 2185 01:53:47,840 --> 01:53:49,720 Speaker 1: he's wired that way to think that he may. I 2186 01:53:49,760 --> 01:53:53,240 Speaker 1: don't think he thinks he's done anytime soon. Yeah, right, 2187 01:53:53,320 --> 01:53:55,559 Speaker 1: So maybe in his head, like we're all saying, oh, well, 2188 01:53:55,560 --> 01:53:57,280 Speaker 1: how many more years is a seven year old coach? 2189 01:53:57,320 --> 01:54:01,040 Speaker 1: Half maybe he's like ten Like I and I think Evin, 2190 01:54:01,080 --> 01:54:03,040 Speaker 1: I think that part of his philosophy, which I really 2191 01:54:03,120 --> 01:54:06,799 Speaker 1: like generally as a philosophy, is just focusing on the immediate, 2192 01:54:07,000 --> 01:54:09,479 Speaker 1: immediate right now, you know, And I think like that 2193 01:54:09,600 --> 01:54:11,920 Speaker 1: almost might be maybe part of the problem at the 2194 01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:13,960 Speaker 1: end here is that you've been so dedicated to not 2195 01:54:14,160 --> 01:54:16,439 Speaker 1: worrying about, you know, the next couple of years or 2196 01:54:16,479 --> 01:54:18,759 Speaker 1: how things are falling into place. You're just methodically building 2197 01:54:18,800 --> 01:54:20,599 Speaker 1: a team like you always have that you're gonna miss out. 2198 01:54:20,640 --> 01:54:22,760 Speaker 1: Maybe we all have it wrong and he we got 2199 01:54:22,800 --> 01:54:25,960 Speaker 1: the wrong record that he's after. Maybe he's going after 2200 01:54:26,040 --> 01:54:28,800 Speaker 1: the oldest coach ever in the NFL record. That's a 2201 01:54:28,840 --> 01:54:32,320 Speaker 1: great reason. I'm not going to get that. I'm only 2202 01:54:32,360 --> 01:54:34,200 Speaker 1: kidding at and you don't have to get so serious. 2203 01:54:34,800 --> 01:54:40,200 Speaker 1: But what was Levi? Huh was it Levi? Who was 2204 01:54:40,280 --> 01:54:44,400 Speaker 1: the oldest? I don't know, Mar, we should find that out. Probably, 2205 01:54:45,040 --> 01:54:46,840 Speaker 1: what do you think the number is? Like, what's the 2206 01:54:46,920 --> 01:54:49,760 Speaker 1: age of the oldest coach ever in the NFL? Seventy four? 2207 01:54:49,960 --> 01:54:53,680 Speaker 1: I'm saying eighty two. I was going to say eighty two, 2208 01:54:54,240 --> 01:54:59,760 Speaker 1: eighty zero? Dous a look it up. Meanwhile, I'll read 2209 01:55:00,080 --> 01:55:04,360 Speaker 1: Drew and Bradford's email. When the Patriots drafted fifteenth overall, 2210 01:55:04,400 --> 01:55:06,840 Speaker 1: there was already the question in the media whether Bill 2211 01:55:07,000 --> 01:55:09,880 Speaker 1: really thought Mac was their guy because the Patriots didn't 2212 01:55:09,880 --> 01:55:12,360 Speaker 1: trade up to get him. Was the value for a 2213 01:55:12,440 --> 01:55:16,920 Speaker 1: consensus first round caliber quarterback at pick fifteen was too 2214 01:55:17,040 --> 01:55:19,480 Speaker 1: much to pass on? During the draft, there was a 2215 01:55:19,560 --> 01:55:23,920 Speaker 1: lot of reports Bill wanted the guard Elijah Vera Tucker, 2216 01:55:24,040 --> 01:55:27,520 Speaker 1: but the Jets drafted him before the Patriots pick. With 2217 01:55:27,680 --> 01:55:32,120 Speaker 1: the significant differences in Robert Crafts and Bill's comments towards 2218 01:55:32,240 --> 01:55:36,360 Speaker 1: macdus offseason, combined with Bill's refusal to Backmack at any 2219 01:55:36,440 --> 01:55:38,960 Speaker 1: point in time, do you think it is possible that 2220 01:55:39,080 --> 01:55:41,840 Speaker 1: Bill got a director from above that they needed to 2221 01:55:41,960 --> 01:55:44,760 Speaker 1: draft a rookie quarterback in the twenty twenty one draft 2222 01:55:45,000 --> 01:55:49,920 Speaker 1: if one was still available. No, yeah, I don't. I 2223 01:55:50,000 --> 01:55:52,320 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't think so. I think there was. 2224 01:55:54,040 --> 01:55:58,000 Speaker 1: I mean, there's definitely everything he said is definitely like 2225 01:56:00,560 --> 01:56:05,640 Speaker 1: sort of out there as potential factors and why they 2226 01:56:06,120 --> 01:56:09,120 Speaker 1: took him in and whatnot, and the fact that they 2227 01:56:09,200 --> 01:56:11,800 Speaker 1: were they needed a quarterback clearly and they would contently 2228 01:56:11,880 --> 01:56:14,680 Speaker 1: just wait it out and whatever one was there they 2229 01:56:14,720 --> 01:56:16,440 Speaker 1: were going to take. So a lot of people were like, well, 2230 01:56:16,640 --> 01:56:19,200 Speaker 1: they didn't love him because of that. The rest of it, 2231 01:56:19,320 --> 01:56:21,720 Speaker 1: who knows for sure. So I got the list of 2232 01:56:22,040 --> 01:56:24,640 Speaker 1: the oldest coaches NFL history. It's actually pretty interesting. Um 2233 01:56:25,080 --> 01:56:27,520 Speaker 1: the coach, the coach who coached at the oldest ages. 2234 01:56:27,680 --> 01:56:30,240 Speaker 1: We should probably do a trivia for it. Because he 2235 01:56:30,400 --> 01:56:34,440 Speaker 1: was a fairly prominent Patriots coach recently, like within the 2236 01:56:34,520 --> 01:56:38,000 Speaker 1: last twenty years he coached. I don't want to give 2237 01:56:38,000 --> 01:56:41,000 Speaker 1: any more away. Well to say it, well, Romeo Cornell 2238 01:56:41,480 --> 01:56:44,960 Speaker 1: coached it at seventy three was when he filled in, 2239 01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:47,680 Speaker 1: I guess for the Texans. Seventy three was the oldest 2240 01:56:48,320 --> 01:56:50,400 Speaker 1: before that. There's no coach and the coaches that have 2241 01:56:50,440 --> 01:56:53,800 Speaker 1: coached over seventy or Gunther Cunningham coach to seventy, Alexanders 2242 01:56:53,800 --> 01:56:56,840 Speaker 1: coach to seventy one, Marv Levus seventy two, George Hallis 2243 01:56:56,960 --> 01:57:03,040 Speaker 1: was seventy two, four wins, Hollis was seventy two. He 2244 01:57:03,120 --> 01:57:05,960 Speaker 1: coached for forty seven. I'm surprised that it wasn't higher 2245 01:57:06,040 --> 01:57:09,360 Speaker 1: than that. Yeah, and now I know he's going for 2246 01:57:09,480 --> 01:57:12,840 Speaker 1: that record oldest coach well, and he's got it. I 2247 01:57:12,840 --> 01:57:15,280 Speaker 1: don't know when the last posted, but it was one. 2248 01:57:15,360 --> 01:57:17,480 Speaker 1: Bill was sixty nine, so I guess that's the last year. 2249 01:57:18,400 --> 01:57:20,120 Speaker 1: But he was at forty five years at that point. 2250 01:57:20,200 --> 01:57:22,600 Speaker 1: So I mean it just in terms of coaching longevity, 2251 01:57:22,680 --> 01:57:25,600 Speaker 1: Hollis coach forty seven years and Bill will I guess 2252 01:57:25,640 --> 01:57:27,600 Speaker 1: would be forty seven this year. So holbready years did 2253 01:57:27,680 --> 01:57:32,120 Speaker 1: uh Shuler coach, not on the list, not on the 2254 01:57:32,200 --> 01:57:37,920 Speaker 1: top ten. Arians got on it at sixteen shorter. Some 2255 01:57:38,120 --> 01:57:41,600 Speaker 1: might say, you guys are the worst. Wait, he said, 2256 01:57:41,600 --> 01:57:44,880 Speaker 1: Arians was what? Uh just? I mean? He was sixty 2257 01:57:44,960 --> 01:57:52,520 Speaker 1: nine but twenty five years acted well? All right, good 2258 01:57:52,640 --> 01:57:55,960 Speaker 1: ending to the show. All right, we'll be bad Thursday 2259 01:57:56,040 --> 01:58:00,320 Speaker 1: with another edition of Patriots Unfiltered till then.
