Maybe I'm thinking of Wayne Krabet. It's interesting 18 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: that you put the charges ahead of them as a 19 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: non playoff, because I know I got the teams that 20 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: have better talent than This is Patriots Unfiltered, fueled by Duncan. 21 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: All right, welcome to Patriots Unfiltered. It is Tuesday here 22 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: at Jilette Stadium, and the news is coming fast and 23 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: furious for the other teams right now. I was gonna say, 24 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: I mean, things are happening here at Ailette Stadium, and 25 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: this is more like it usually is, isn't it this? Yea? 26 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: This is this is more like normal. Last year was 27 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: an outlier. Crazy. We were the Jags last year. Yeah, 28 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: that was that was Yeah. I mean, and even the 29 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: Jags aren't signing kind of players we signed last year. Yea. 30 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: You know, they've gone even farther. But I'm seeing a 31 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: lot of the same Twitter chokes of backing up the 32 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: brinks truck and I've just signed with the Jags and 33 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: those kind of things. Yeah, but um, you know, so 34 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: there is news coming out people that they've resigned a 35 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: big you know what a trade. I'm glad you. I'm 36 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: glad you caught yourself a notable trade. I'm glad. Wow. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 37 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: it's because the Patriots were involved. Other than that, well, 38 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: I think everyone's favorite blonde haired outside linebacker Chase Winovich 39 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: has been traded to the Browns for uh, what's his name, 40 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 1: Mack Wilson. Wilson. Now, he had a great first year. Yeah, 41 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: he started like fourteen games I think in his rookie year. Yeah, 42 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: he started the last fourteen games plays of the defense. 43 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: He had a knee injury in twenty twenty. Uh, and 44 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: he didn't play that much last year. Six starts fourteen games, 45 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: I mean most special teams. So but he runs fast apparently, 46 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: and that's all anybody wants, right, So, yeah, he's small 47 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: and it was a player for player. Yeah, similar two guys. 48 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: Did the Patriots get better, even if it's incremental, I 49 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: would say maybe, just because it's they might have maybe 50 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: a position they need a little bit more. But I 51 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: still think the bunch a depth that outside linebacker and 52 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 1: a bunch of depth that inside linebacker, and none of 53 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: it's really proven beyond Matthew Judon that's kind of the 54 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,239 Speaker 1: only guy. Well, the question to me is is he 55 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 1: going to play defense? Did they trade for him to 56 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: play defense or did they trade for him to play 57 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: special teams? Because if they traded for him to play 58 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: special teams, the answer is no, they didn't get better. 59 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: Questions and we don't know. The I don't know the 60 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: answer is that first year, his rookie year, he had 61 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: like eighty some odd tackles and you know he had 62 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: every down three, you know, a really good player. And 63 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 1: then what happened, Yeah, well, knee injury. You mentioned the 64 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: unique knee injury. But then last year he wasn't that 65 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: you know, he wasn't as good either, right, so what 66 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: happened last year? Oh? I mean I think there is 67 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: a parallel to Winovich and you know, not that win 68 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: of Itch really showed a lot his rookie year like 69 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: this guy did. But um, you know, I kind of 70 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: see that whole group is as similar. I don't think 71 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: that he's like, oh well, now we got a guy. 72 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I think he's in the mix with ray 73 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: Kua McMillan and Cameron mcgron and Anthony Jennings and Gelanni 74 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: Tavayan to Rose Hall and that kind of group. And 75 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: how's it all going to play out? I mean, at 76 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: this point right now, it just seems like we're you 77 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: and throw it at the wall and see who can 78 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: compete and who who's going to win a job. But 79 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: you know, it's another guy. It's another one year deal, 80 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: Miles Jack's available, Miles Jack, which a lot of guys 81 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: still available that our name, right, Yeah, And I think 82 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: that's everybody who's like pulling their hair out. It's like 83 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: we said, I mean, this is kind of what they do, 84 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: and I understand what people want, and I do think 85 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: that they need to get younger and better. But I 86 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 1: think the next couple days or where you see the 87 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: values start to come out and and all right, these 88 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,239 Speaker 1: are the guys that got passed over in the initial rush, 89 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: and we'll be able to maybe bank them more amenable 90 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: to a deal that's a little more friendly for us. 91 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: So I mean, I think I still think there are 92 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: moves to come. I don't I think losing JC and 93 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: having the big opening a cornerback seen it coming for 94 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: two years, and I think that's definitely worthy of conversation 95 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 1: and concern. The trade. The trade for me, though, the 96 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:50,359 Speaker 1: first thing I thought of was the Bethel Johnson Jonathan 97 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: Sullivan trade where two players who both teams. I mean, 98 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: those guys were both kind of you know, higher up, 99 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: you know, we'll first round draft pick and Sullivan's case 100 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: right back then, but two guys who sort of were 101 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: underperforming with the current teams that and they kind of 102 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: figure out maybe a change of scene. He's kind of 103 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: could be the best kind of thing. That's the first 104 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: thing I thought of with Winovich though. It was to me. 105 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: He gets the haircut, then he's traded. It's hair today, 106 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: gone tomorrow. So he didn't get to write. Guy, it's like, 107 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: can I just do an extra? Got to put a 108 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: bow on that story, right, he comes up with him. 109 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: It is funny though, the day after he cuts it. Seriously, 110 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: he must have known like, oh, I'm going to get 111 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: a new job. I better make time time for a 112 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: time for a change. Alabama guy, another Mac from Alabama. Yeah, 113 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: so obviously the biggest news this week is J. C. 114 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: Jackson leaving. He's gone officially, He's now a charger Charger guaranteed. 115 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: I still say I said it before. I would have 116 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: signed him or at least franchised him, at least keep 117 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: the asset. If the market was that hot for him, 118 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: then maybe you can get a third round. Well. I 119 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: wonder how hot the market was though, because I don't know. 120 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 1: The only team I heard that was really interested in 121 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: him was the team that ended up signing. Is that right? 122 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: I didn't hear anybody's name other than the Chargers associated 123 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: with jac Jackson. I heard the generic sort of oh, 124 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a market for his services, but no 125 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: teams were ever like that. I heard of were saying like, 126 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: let's just say the Broncos are really interested in Jac. Like, 127 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: I never heard anything other than the Chargers associated with 128 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 1: his name. So I wonder if he did the shopping 129 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: around and realized, wow, LA is the only one, or 130 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: if they just threw that money at him and he 131 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: kind of did like the Jackie Child's kind of like 132 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: so I'm in. Or teams were just quiet about it 133 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: because they didn't want to like start a bidding war. 134 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: But usually you hear like, yeah, usually the agent takes 135 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: care of you. Here, like at least a handful of 136 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: teams start a bidding war. Yeah, it did take a 137 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: little while. It wasn't like they had that deal all 138 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: cued up and was all agreed to. I mean there 139 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: were a couple not a boss today but h J yeah, yeah, no, 140 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: I know. I mean I mean there were a couple 141 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 1: though that like as soon as twelve o'clock hit it 142 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: like and this guy has so I mean maybe there 143 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 1: was some back and forth with some teams that pretty quick. 144 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 1: I mean to sign on day one, no matter whether 145 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: it's in the afternoon or in the evening, it's that's great. 146 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: And don't forget it's West Coast time. And I don't 147 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: think that the money wasn't outrageous. I mean the forty million, 148 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: that's a nice guarantee, but it comes out to like 149 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: sixteen and a half million. You know, Now those years 150 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: at the end it was a five year deal, and 151 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: the years at the end, who knows, So really it's 152 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: the first two or three years that really matter. Yeah, 153 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: but you know, it was like eighty two and a 154 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: half million for five years, forty million guaranteed, which is 155 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: kind of common now about half of contracts or guarantee. 156 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: They used to not be that way, but now fifty 157 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: percent of more of these contracts of being guaranteed. So 158 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: it wasn't like outrageous. It was about where the franchise 159 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: would have been. That was like seventeen and a half 160 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: and this comes out. So I still say, I think 161 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: I think they should have signed him. Well, I think 162 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: they should have. I could have kept the asset. My 163 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: preference would have been tagged with the intention of trading 164 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: or tag because I don't think they were going to 165 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: pay that kind of money for I think I would 166 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: have tagged. If you trade him, great, but be prepared 167 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: to pay him, right, that's the risk you have to take. 168 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: So they would have had to do some accounting jiu 169 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: jitsu to get him underneath there because they had to 170 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: resign all of these existing guys that they wanted to keep. 171 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: So I'm fine letting him go. I've I've seen it 172 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: for two years coming. I just don't think he's there 173 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: kind of guy. I don't think he's a guy that 174 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: you invest in long term to build around. Um. I mean, 175 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to argue with you. They don't 176 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: have much talent, certainly long term on the roster right now, 177 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: and that part of it hurts. There's no real I mean, 178 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: I think I think more Jaila Mills than some people, 179 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: but I still don't think he's a starting outside corner 180 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: that they've had. And now what do you do? I mean, 181 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: you really don't have anybody in place. I mean, you 182 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: can put Mills back there for another ar sure, and 183 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: you got Jonathan Jones and Moles Brian, but I think 184 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: you know you need at least two guys there, and 185 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: that's you know, it's just kind of the tip of 186 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 1: the iceberg. Like even if you had JC Jackson, I'd 187 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: still feel like you need some moves to happen. So now, 188 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: I just saw on the Sports Hubs TV broadcast here 189 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: that I didn't see whose tweet it was. It might 190 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: have been Albert Breer, but um, that the Patriots offered 191 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: him Jackson three years fifty one million. Did I see that? Right? 192 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: It just kind of they quickly showed a tweet and 193 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: it was gone before I could read the whole thing. 194 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: But it's possible. But you don't know how that structured, 195 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: like how much of that was contingent on things, you know, 196 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: like how much of it was guaranteed. You don't know, right, 197 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: you know. I've just seen different reports that the Patriots 198 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: had offered three at fifteen and then then it dropped 199 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 1: to three thirteen. But then I also saw reports here 200 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: met yeah, that that that the Patriots weren't even really 201 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: close to it, never really in the mix, um, you know. 202 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: And I think he heard something similar with Ted Harris 203 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: where they had put money on the table for him, 204 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: and you know, he went somewhere else for a little 205 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: bit more so. So Yeah, carrass is out. Yeah, Bengals. Yeah, 206 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: helped protect Joe Burro, Um, mccordy, and Slater in Nick 207 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: Nick focus in James ferns, I don't want to get 208 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: ahead of our parents. I know Paul's got a lot 209 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:10,719 Speaker 1: of stuff teet up about about his favorite he's not 210 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: here signing. Uh yeah, I don't really want to get 211 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: into it, but he's writing the analysis that you that 212 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: I forced the god forbid. Well, when we signed somebody important, 213 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: then it's worth analyzing until then. I I mean, I 214 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: I remember specifically two weeks ago on the show, we 215 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: were kind of talking, um, you know, I think I 216 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: think Fred you said directly, who do you want to sign? 217 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: And I kind of was like, kind of our own guys, 218 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: and then it went into a thing of saying, well, 219 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: you know, you owe Devin mccordy money. And at the 220 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: time I was misinformed believing that if you have dead 221 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: money that you know, you can somehow play with it, um, 222 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: and so apparently you can. I mean, you know, I 223 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 1: I was put back in my place on that inventially, 224 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: but now I'm seeing, you know, mcguel putting out the 225 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: tweet that that uh, that it went from six point 226 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: four or five down to five points up. So somehow 227 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: they reduced the dead money hit on mccordy. Now they 228 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: did push money out, um, you know down. I think 229 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: to twenty twenty six, you're still playing dead money for mccordy. 230 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: But I'll just get this out before Paul gets here, 231 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: and then I'll and then i'll you know, we'll get back. 232 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: But I think it's fine. I don't I don't work. 233 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: You can manipulate it all the way, you know, like 234 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: Paul says, but it's not crap. You have to figure 235 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 1: it out somehow. So like you can sign anyone you 236 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: want for any amount of money, but there comes a 237 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: date by which you have to be under the cap, right, 238 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: so however you figure that out, you have to, you know. 239 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: So that's why I think it's lazy to just say 240 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: the cap is crap. Yeah, and one like you can 241 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: you can manipu. There's a million ways to manipulate it, absolutely, 242 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: especially in long terms. But I think it's the one 243 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: year stuff with a franchise tag and a one year deal. 244 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,839 Speaker 1: Those are those are harder to those. You can't those 245 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: that's it, that's real money. You know, you can't fudge 246 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: that around. But like like you said, with this mccordy thing, 247 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: like they're pushing stuff to twenty twenty six, Yeah, he's 248 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: not gonna be around to twenty twenty six. So eventually 249 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: there's going to be some dead money associated with Devin mccordy. Yeah, 250 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, yeah, and then you know, and are 251 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: they playing as we said yesterday, are they paying a 252 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: premium for pregame and postgame speeches? Right? Maybe a little bit, yeah, 253 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: But I'm fine with it. I don't think that, you know, 254 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: it's crazy mine. I think they need to, you know, 255 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: keep some of the leadership in place. I don't think 256 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 1: mccordy is dropped off that much. And I think you've 257 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: got three good safeties and that gives you some continuity. 258 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: And I'm fine with Slater. I don't think that those 259 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: moves are going to define. Oh no, this free agency period, 260 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: the pages didn't get worse or better. But again, like 261 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: I don't want it to seem like any of us 262 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: was I don't think any of us was really expecting 263 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: them to do something even remotely close to what they 264 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 1: did last year in terms of signing marquee name players. 265 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: So it was underwhelming yesterday, but it was also unsurprising. 266 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: If we knew this, it's not, but we wanted to 267 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 1: be surprised. We wanted to see you want to be 268 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:00,839 Speaker 1: like figure out like how to bring in a big 269 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: but realistic. I thought they'd signed some realistic It's not 270 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: over yet, no, I'm saying, but they would sign somebody. 271 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: The first day is typically when the big stuff happens. Now. 272 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: I know last year they had a big day on 273 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:12,599 Speaker 1: day one and then they had a big day on 274 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: day two as well. But they don't have Yeah, right, 275 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: that whole first week actually was very exciting last week. 276 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: If they end up figuring out how to sign Miles Jack, 277 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: wouldn't that be a big thing. If they figure out 278 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: a way to do it, that would be a big thing. 279 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: That would be big. Yeah, he's available. What do they 280 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: have to figure out sign him? That's what I mean. 281 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: If they sign him, if they figure out a deal 282 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: with Miles Jack, that would be big. Right. Yeah, So 283 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: it's not, it's not a done deal. I think there's 284 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: still could be things to come Miles Jack. There has 285 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: to be there has to be stuff coming. I mean, 286 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: they just why they don't have a full roster oh, okay, 287 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: well they do, it's just not with players that you 288 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: would They took all their guys back from last year. 289 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: They had a full roster when they finished last year. Yeah, 290 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: they do have a full roster, it's just not you know, 291 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: populated with people that you think are gonna I don't 292 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 1: prove that that roster at cornerback right now, they got three. 293 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 1: They got three guys they have they have bodies, is 294 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: my point, Like they have bodies. How many people are 295 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: on the roster right now? You have a draft, mic, right, 296 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: I can tell you negative. Right now, there's sixty three. 297 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 1: Sixty three, So there's room for a lot more. Because 298 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 1: that's so technically that's a full roster. That's your fifty 299 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: three man roster. You gotta cut ten guys. You're gonna 300 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: add six from the draft, you know at least probably 301 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: you know so that, but you still have room for 302 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: twenty one more guys. But this this dovetails into something 303 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: I brought up to Paul upstairs. Um, was that if 304 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: you just look next year to twenty twenty three. Yeah, 305 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: the eighteen guys on the roster, Mike three team guys 306 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: really bumped me out this morning. And of those eighteen 307 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: bumped you out, bumped me out. Ten guys are ten 308 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: guys are starts, like starters, guys that you'd want around. 309 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: I'd maybe go to eleven. Me and Paul were probably split. 310 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: But say that again, they have eighteen guys under contract 311 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty three, which is not crazy. Like I 312 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: looked it around the rest of the league. It's not like, 313 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: oh my god, they're an outlier in this league. But 314 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: but it's generally what the dumb teams do. But you 315 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: look at who are the guys that you really want 316 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: to build around of that group, and and you know, 317 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: it's it's a little frightening. And I think, you know, 318 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: even for somebody like me and Paul brought up you 319 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: know how how I often am fond of saying that 320 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: I think Bill when he leaves wants to have the 321 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: organization in great shape. Well, it's hard for me as 322 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: that person to reconcile looking at the roster next year 323 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: and saying, you got to hit on like ten draft 324 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: picks this year. You know, you need a lot of work. 325 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I still think they got a lot, a 326 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: lot of things to do in free agency. I think 327 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: you're you know this is when they usually start to 328 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: let the big things go find the guys who are 329 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: you know, in the mix, and I know that that 330 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: maybe is not as exciting, but get to the clearance ract. 331 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: I think they got a lot of work to do. 332 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: I think they got a lot of work to do. 333 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: And you know, maybe it's just the events of that 334 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: last couple of days kind of reminding you of that, 335 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: because I don't really feel all that surprised, but I 336 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: still want it to be a little bit surprised. Yeah, 337 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: we wanted to be surprised, where yeah, we always want 338 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: to just summarize my thought like, yeah, I mean I 339 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: kind of thought they wouldn't do a whole lot, but 340 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: I was still bummed out that they didn't. Yeah, sure, 341 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: you know, now never been years where they've done a 342 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: lot of their work on week two when most of 343 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 1: the high profile names are gone. So this has that 344 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: kind of feel like and I'm not interested in I mean, 345 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: like Fred's Miles Jack thing. You know he just got 346 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: released today. I mean that would qualify as something you 347 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: know that that would be big. But I mean generally, 348 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: when you wait a week, you're getting guys that, oh Paul, 349 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: I'm not saying no, I want it unless you trade. 350 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: Unless you do some type of trade. Yeah, you know, 351 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: but well not a lot something a lot of commodity 352 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: to get trade like special teams linebackers. But you're not 353 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: going to trade like to get Miles Jack. Like if 354 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: he was a trade candidate, you're not getting him for 355 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: Chase winning, right, I mean, what do you have that's 356 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: tradeable right now other than future first round draft picks? Oh, Chase, 357 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: one of which was one of your was one of 358 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: the probably the first guys you'd say, right, I mean 359 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: that that was that that's the kind of guy and 360 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: kill Harry, right. I mean, those are the guys that 361 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: you're going to be trading. Otherwise you're losing something you want, right, 362 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: That's what I mean. Like, what do you have that's 363 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: worth something to another team? Yeah, to get somebody like 364 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: a like a Miles Jack. I know he's cut. I 365 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: mean like that type of player. Draft picks can always 366 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: be involved, but I don't think that makes a lot 367 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: of sense when you only have six of them and 368 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 1: you need to get younger. Yeah, And it's not like 369 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 1: you have a bunch of depth at a position where hey, 370 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: we can move on from veteran player X to give 371 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: younger player be a chance, like you're already kind of 372 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 1: being forced into that. Yeah, okay, sorry, We're just I 373 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: feel like we're waiting. We're waiting still right, keep waiting. 374 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: I can. I can just imagine what's going on right 375 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: now in the football offices. I mean, I'm sure that 376 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: like they're working overtime. They're working overtime because where they 377 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: know that they've got a lot of work to do. 378 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: When I brought up to I said to Paul this 379 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: morning as well, is like you brought up Miles Jack 380 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: as an example. How how does football prepare for those 381 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: kind of releases, those kind of you know, all of 382 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: a sudden, nobody's talking about Miles Jack for the last 383 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 1: two months as being an option for the Patriots, just 384 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 1: using as him as an example, But how do you 385 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: stay ready for that kind of thing where you know, 386 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: we're targeting this free agent that we know is going 387 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 1: to be a free agent in you know, in like 388 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: give me who's a linebacker that was a free agent 389 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: this year that's like Layton Vanderis or whatever, just a 390 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: free agent we know we're targeting him. All of a sudden, 391 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: Miles Jack comes available and you say, geez, he's way better, Like, 392 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: you know, how do you know what I mean? Like 393 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: you have to be fluid, But is there any way 394 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: to kind of know we think these guys could be available? 395 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: We think these guys, I mean, that's what the pro 396 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 1: Personnel Department does. Now, nobody knows every single guy that's 397 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,439 Speaker 1: going to get released, but they'll tell you, like, you know, 398 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: and that's where like the analytics, the research people that 399 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: are more unto the numbers will tell you, you know, 400 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Cincinnati and I'm looking at the rams, 401 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 1: and the numbers don't drive here, They're going to have 402 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: to cut some guys. Here are a couple of guys 403 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 1: that are strong candidates to get released. And I think 404 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: that's where the combine also comes in, where you have 405 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: that week of all the decision makers are kind of 406 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: gathered and you kind of start doing your your groundwork 407 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: for Hey, you got a guy that you don't really 408 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: play much. We kind of like him. What's the chances 409 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 1: of you know, and don't underestimate the role of agents 410 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 1: in this whole. Well, yeah, because most times when a 411 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: guy like Miles Jack gets released, it was not a 412 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: stunner to Miles Jack. Now I'm not telling you that's 413 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: always the way. Sometimes it is sometimes, you know, like 414 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: go back to the most famous lawyer, lawyer Milloy. Yeah. Look, 415 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: they were working with lawyer Malloy to read you his 416 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: contract the entirety of the off season. So lawyer Molloy 417 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 1: could not have been stunned that it ended the way 418 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 1: it did the way we were right like, they were 419 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: asking him constantly to read you his deal. So finally, no, 420 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: he may have said they won't cut me, and it 421 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 1: was a surprise to him, but not a stunner that 422 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: it might. But it might be on the table more 423 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: often than not when a guy, you know, just looking 424 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 1: at this timeline to me, Jacksonville was probably looking at 425 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: it and saying, we're probably gonna have to do something 426 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 1: with Miles, Jack. But let's make sure that we get 427 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 1: these guys, because they signed like three or four guys yesterday. 428 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: Let's make sure we get the guys that we that 429 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 1: we think we're going to get that we're in on, 430 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: and then if we do, we'll have to let them go. Yep. Yeah, 431 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 1: So all right, A five five pats five hundred is 432 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 1: the A Sticket Outline web Radio at pagris dot com. 433 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: Other stuff going around the league. Um, you know, as 434 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: you said, some other teams are making some big trade 435 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: JC Jackson over to the Chargers. Yeah that's ah, Paul. 436 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: What did you think about if those numbers are right? 437 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: You know, um on Jackson five years eighty two a 438 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: little less than I thought, just like just a little 439 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 1: bitch a million. Yeah, I see, I said, I still 440 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: think they should have signed him. Well, yeah, you wanted 441 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 1: a franchise for that, well, or signed clearly they didn't 442 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: want a franchise and for seventeen point three, so they're 443 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: not going to sign them to a five year deal 444 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: for sixteen point five. No, I know, but like like 445 00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: and you, I would have done either one. I would 446 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: have done either one. Right, No, and you were very 447 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: consistent with that and that, you know, I like from 448 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: back in like October, right, you were very consistent with that. 449 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,199 Speaker 1: You haven't wavered, no, and I package that I keep 450 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: them both. But anyway, yeah, he hasn't wavered. Yeah, we'll 451 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: see on Thursday when you guys all to yourself. Where 452 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 1: you going, I'm off I'm off?

Yeah, they're already in. Could you play 458 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: in game two? I hate when they call it the 459 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: first four I thought that, Um, I thought that if 460 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: you one year conference, you're automatically in. They are, But no, 461 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: they have to play in. They're in. That's that's in 462 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: the turn To me, that's not I agree with you. Yeah, 463 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: I agree with you. Yeah, it's still to me, it's 464 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 1: a sixty sixty fourteen. I still consider it a sixty fourteen. 465 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: Providence is in there? Where do you draw the line 466 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 1: one game? If you had a player in time, it's 467 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: been thirty two, forty eight, fifty three, sixty four, and 468 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 1: sixty eight. But I still consider it sixty four now. 469 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 1: But if you have to do a play in game, 470 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: then you didn't get an automatic bit. You did get 471 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: an automatic bit. If they didn't get an automatic bit, 472 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 1: they wouldn't be in the playing game. I know what 473 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 1: you're saying, But today I agree with you. That's still 474 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: a prove it game. I agree with you, it's approve it, right, 475 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,239 Speaker 1: those are the rules. I know it's to know, but 476 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:31,199 Speaker 1: I thought playing games for only the at large pete. No, 477 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,360 Speaker 1: there's there's two of those, and there's two for sixteen seeds. Yeah, 478 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 1: that are automatics. That's the way they do it. Anyway, 479 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: it's it's coctas. Anyway, we're talking football here, Um, football's time. Yeah. 480 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 1: The JC Jackson thing, what I found kind of interesting 481 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 1: is it was it was a little less mind. Like 482 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 1: I thought, probably like seventeen or eighteen. You got sixteen 483 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 1: and a half. So I'm not gonna sit there's wow, 484 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: he signed right away and that's all he got. No, 485 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: he banked, he got he got a huge set, he 486 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,199 Speaker 1: got a huge contract. A lot of people are like 487 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 1: killing the Patriots for not like, how can they not 488 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: go They told you the week before when they didn't 489 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 1: franchise him they weren't willing to go to seventeen point three, right, Yeah, 490 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: like for eight hundred thousand, you think that that was 491 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: going to be the difference. Plus, as Mike said, the 492 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 1: forty guaranteed over a five year Like they were telling you, 493 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: seventeen point three was more than they were comfortable paying. Yeah, 494 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: so sixteen and a half was still too much. Yeah, 495 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: like the difference between you know, less than a million 496 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: is not gonna you know, change change that. And again 497 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 1: you've been very consistent. You wanted to keep him, you 498 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: thought they should have gone. I just look at the league, 499 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: and there aren't Like, he's not a shutdown corner. I'm 500 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: admitting that to all those people that are saying he's 501 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,400 Speaker 1: not the Roe Reevers and he's not kill him. Yes 502 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: he's not. There aren't a lot of them. But you 503 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: need somebody, and you're gonna have to pay somebody, and 504 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 1: when they get even to his level, you're gonna have 505 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:01,919 Speaker 1: to pay the Yeah, it's like with quarterbacks, like you 506 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 1: might not want to have to pay a starting quarterback 507 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: kind of money you pay like the Vikings just guaranteed 508 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: thirty five millions her cousins. But that's the going, right, 509 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 1: Matt Jones just stays like an average quarterback. Yeah, it 510 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: gets to his fifth year, he gets there. I'm just saying. 511 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,360 Speaker 1: I said, if he gets there to his fifth year 512 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 1: and he's an average quarterback, he's gonna get paid by somebody. Yeah, 513 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: you know right, he's gonna get paid. And again, like 514 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, I bring up that example again, like he's 515 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: made an incredible career out of being an average quarterback. 516 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 1: All of the national UH heavyweights were wrong on the 517 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: Randy Gregory to Dallas thing. Evidently he's signing with Denver. 518 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: Randy Gregory signed a big all said he was staying 519 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: in Dallas. Yeah, five year. Yeah. Tell you that that 520 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: AFC West is an arms race, right, yeah, it is. 521 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,719 Speaker 1: It is an arms race. They are just loading up 522 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: charge repete against each JC and Mac. Yeah. I wonder 523 00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: if that puts them out on on von Miller. I 524 00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 1: hear some interesting stuff like Miller would still maybe considering. 525 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: I'll tell you that the team, the odd team out 526 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: might be Kansas. I heard Tyrone Matthew is leaving. Yeah, 527 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: they're not going to resign him. He's available, you know. Interesting, 528 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: So I mean that that's gonna be a wild of him. 529 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: Who would you have rather had wild and crazy Tyrone Matthew, Yes? 530 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: Or d mac Tyro Matthew. Yeah. I mean I mean 531 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: that's even though, like that's a tough one. I think 532 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: they're a little bit different kind of players. But and 533 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: you and you're gonna have him one year? Yeah? I 534 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,119 Speaker 1: think if you if you tell me, I can have 535 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: him for at least three years, I'll take because that's 536 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 1: what you'd be signing him for. Yeah, you wouldn't be 537 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: signing him for one year. He's a he's younger. Yep, Um, 538 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: he's more of a playmaker. I think he's more of 539 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: a playmaker. I don't like he seems to have been 540 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: a leader at Kansas City. Like you know, I'm not 541 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: so much worried about that aspect of But I want 542 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: a guy I am, I said, not so much. I 543 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 1: want to start with who's going to be an impactful 544 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: player on the field. The off field stuff is great, 545 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: but I want you to be an impact player on 546 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 1: the field first. Yeah, and I think he would have 547 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: been more of a well an asset. Has he signed 548 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: with anyone? He hasn't, but the fact that the cross 549 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: him off the Patriots ain't signing there. Yeah, why so 550 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: he could be the fourth safety? Well maybe maybe he's not. Maybe, 551 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: you know, can you play corner? Could be in a 552 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: four man rotation. That's why I bring up the would 553 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 1: you rather have? Maybe now you you trade Kyle Dugger. 554 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe he's like if you had, if 555 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: you had, if you had Phillips and Matthew as your 556 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: two starters and Dugger like, maybe Dugger is a potential 557 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: like down the road, like mid season trade prospect if 558 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: he doesn't kind of pan out the way you think, 559 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: or if not, you keep him. Paul's like, I don't 560 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: want to He's one of the five guys play. I 561 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: don't want to trade him. Yeah, I mean I don't 562 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 1: want to trade him either. But I'm saying like I 563 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,719 Speaker 1: don't want Tyron Matthew instead of Kyle Dugger. I'll take 564 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: Kyle Dugger. I know that might shock people with me 565 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 1: being positive on a young Patriot player. It is Matthew 566 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: was knocking on the door and he's coing on his 567 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: fourth team. Like, I don't think Tyrn Matthew is Jordan 568 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: Poy or Micah Hyde. I'll take those two over what 569 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 1: I have, you know, as older safeties. Tyron Matthews not 570 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:25,160 Speaker 1: that guy. No way, I'll take too. You would take 571 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: Devin mccordy. Yeah, Now, I wouldn't necessarily done the contract 572 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: that they did for Devin mccordy, like pushing more. You know, 573 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,679 Speaker 1: these void years are ridiculous. We look forget about the Okay, 574 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 1: so let's just say that you haven't done the contract 575 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: yet with mccordy, because I get it, you're not gonna 576 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 1: pay Matthew and mccordy. But what if it was one 577 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 1: or the other. You know, if I think this is 578 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: an argument to be made that mccordy is more valuable 579 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: with the Patriots than Matthew would be coming in really, yeah, Okay, 580 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: I don't think Tyron Matthew is, you know, in his prime. Okay, 581 00:27:58,160 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: I think he's a good player, but I don't think 582 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: he's in this prime, much like I know mcquody's not 583 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 1: in this prime, right. I watched him the last whole Thanks, 584 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 1: the guy who stays on his own team is more 585 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 1: valuable than so that. Eric. I caught that too. I 586 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: caught that too. I didn't want to go down that road. 587 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: Not the same I didn't want to go down that road. 588 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: I get it. That's that's thanks, that's stupid. It's funny 589 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: for you, normally the most humorless guy. I just said 590 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: that I wouldn't want Tyron Matthew. He looked at me like, 591 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: I just like, you know, ate an onion or something. 592 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: So that was funny for the most humorless guy in 593 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: the show. But wow, but it's not the same. He 594 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: don't get mad at me. I didn't force you to 595 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: write the same the useless analysis piece today, So don't 596 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: get mad at me. Take your anger out on the 597 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: person that you're just supposed to take it. Who's harumpan. 598 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: Now Paul's mad because I made him right today. It's 599 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: not mad for that one. It's we gotta talk, Okay. 600 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: I do get I'm curious. I'm getting two thousand and 601 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 1: five defense vibe, and that's I was just curious to 602 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: your guys's opinion on that one where it was like, 603 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: all the sudden you went from thy law and and 604 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: then dween Starks. But you know, you go, well, it 605 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: was just a period where you had a bunch of 606 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: guys who have been around for a while. Bruski stroke 607 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: obviously that without you didn't see that coming. But Fiffer, 608 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: you know, I think Johnson was gone at that point. 609 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 1: So you know, I don't know. I'm just I'm getting 610 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: the vibe of these positions at cornerback and linebacker that 611 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're gonna look out there and 612 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: you're like Monty Bisle, like Chad Brown, like you know, 613 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: all of a sudden. It just goes from like a 614 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,719 Speaker 1: defense that is established and you're like, God, I love 615 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 1: these guys that trust him to Like, I guess we're 616 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: gonna try to do it with this new group. Now. 617 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: That's what it feels like. I think. I think it's 618 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: not just the Patriots, but you get you get caught 619 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: in positions in a certain position, you know, like because 620 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: of the cycle, and it's like, oh, this is the 621 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: year that we're going to be short here, and you 622 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: just got to work through it, you know, you know, 623 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: because like you said, during the Dynasty, that happened and 624 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: they just had to work through it. I I remember 625 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: the Monty Bis Chad Brown era. I remember Chad Brown 626 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: being folded up like a folding chair in Denver and 627 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: Monnie Bisel, you know, couldn't play. They didn't I couldn't play. 628 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: It was awful. Chad Brown was a good player who 629 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: was passed this right and then they kind of outside 630 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: linebacker and they had him like inside the Babel was 631 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 1: moving inside, had a linebacker drives around in a Mini Cooper. 632 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: I mean that was ridiculous. How do you remember, Yeah, yeah, hey, 633 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: how do you remember that? And be I remember that? 634 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,239 Speaker 1: I just struck me. It's like, why wouldn't you want 635 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: to be comfortable? What you think he wasn't comfortable? And 636 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: a Mini Cooper, Well, the car is not mini like 637 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: for he's not like driving like a clown car now, 638 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: but they're small cars, big enough for a linebacker to 639 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 1: fit in. I don't know, this is what I was 640 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: looking for when I asked about two thousand and five, 641 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,959 Speaker 1: what was Chad Brown driving? I just you know, did 642 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: you ask about two thousand and five? Well that was 643 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: where he brought it up, because I think it's a 644 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: great like when you said it, I was like, I 645 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: remember what defense was stacked and it's not really cut. 646 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 1: But then you started talking talking about some of the 647 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: different pieces that they had, and I was like, huh, yeah, 648 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 1: it's not you get stuck. It's not all that different. Yeah, 649 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: I mean that's a different like that's what makes football 650 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: great but also more complicated. You have so many pieces 651 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: that you have to you know, take care of every year, 652 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: so you know, it's not like basketball or hockey and 653 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: you know sation yeah yeah, and then you put the 654 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: guys in the Sometimes when you get to a certain 655 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 1: position group, you know there's a year or two where 656 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: you're kind of stuck. You know, you're in that cycle 657 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: because you can't replenish every position every year, you know, 658 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: especially with what the Pagers are going through. Now, you 659 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 1: know it's it's there's going to be a position this 660 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: year that they're going to be not good at, you know, 661 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 1: I mean, and they're gonna have to figure out how 662 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 1: to hide that. Yeah, And I mean, and I bring 663 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: that up less like you know, one for one player, 664 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: just as like a fan going from these players that 665 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: you've been watching orever that you trust on the high tower, 666 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 1: like you know, for example, to these new play these 667 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: new guys that you're trying to sell yourself on. Are 668 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: they are they patriots? Ye? Are they going to be 669 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: able to keep it going? Or like you know, is 670 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,959 Speaker 1: the magic just happened that they come in? And I mean, 671 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: I think that year was a little bit of a 672 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: of a reminder. But then you know, I also think 673 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: that you look at the turnover on defense, oh nine 674 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: ten those you know, you gotta find these gems like 675 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: you gotta find a Rob Nikovich, you know, you got 676 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: to find a cast off long snapper. Then nobody's talking 677 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 1: about that all of a sudden knows how to play 678 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: or you and you got to hit the draft out 679 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 1: of the park. So I mean, I understand right now 680 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 1: after what happened in Buffalo and how the off season's 681 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: gone and people are like, we need to get better, 682 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 1: and right now it seems like you're at best tread 683 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: and water what you got. There's time to go. But 684 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: at the same time, like I think it's just shining 685 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: a light on how badly they need to really get 686 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: some players in here. And it's probably the draft, but 687 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: maybe a free agent gem that that nobody's gonna talk 688 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: about and we're gonna you know, maybe it's this guy today, 689 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: Mac mac Wilson. But I think you know, we talked 690 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: about it last show, you know, when they got rid 691 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: of Van noy Um and now they got rid of Winovich. 692 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: What we were saying about that linebacking corps is well again, yeah, 693 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: if they're they're telling us that they agreed, right, But 694 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, as far as getting rid of those guys. 695 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 1: But like, is mac Wilson gonna play defense? That's the 696 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: question I brought up at the start. Did they trade 697 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: for him to play defense or special teams? Because Fred 698 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: asked at the start of the show are they better 699 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: because of this trade? And I said, well, if tell 700 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: me incremental? Yeah, But I said, tell me is he 701 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: gonna play defense or just special teams? Because if he's 702 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: just playing special teams, I don't think they're better better 703 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: from last year. No, over Winkovich, Like did they trade that? Yeah? 704 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: They don't play the same position, so it's not apples 705 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: to apples. Yeah, Winovich is an outside edge guy and 706 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: Wilson isn't off off the ball inside gap. Yeah, so 707 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: they're not really the same, right. Well, I mean, like, 708 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: and who's to say what the in Avich to Ronnie 709 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: Perkins is gonna be to what Mac Wilson to uh Rayon? Like, 710 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: it's is he better than Jawan Bentley? Because that looks 711 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: like the guy I think that's I think that's an 712 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,919 Speaker 1: interesting name to bring up. And is this signal because 713 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,439 Speaker 1: if that's the swap that they're that they're not gonna 714 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: go forward, which I'm surprised. I thought that Jawan Bentley 715 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: was going to come back and that was going to 716 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,879 Speaker 1: be the move that everybody's like, they're not gonna change 717 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: the linemaker position. He's not fascinating, you know, like it 718 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 1: will freak people out but I think Joanni Tavy might 719 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: kind of be that thumper dude anyway. And see, I 720 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: think Bentley is Bentley is smaller than most of those 721 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: guys that he usually has two He's just not um. 722 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: He's not as small as Wilson. Like I like, despite 723 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,919 Speaker 1: what I just wrote, I wouldn't be surprised if Bill 724 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 1: Belichick just says, yeah, yeah, I'm good two hundred thirty 725 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: pind guy. Yeah, I'm gonna pu him in there, like 726 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 1: talk about going cold Turkey and just completely switching from 727 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 1: two fifty plus to I don't buy a small I 728 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: only need to see that before I believe that he's 729 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 1: going to do that. I think he probably feels that 730 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 1: mac Wilson is a better alternative than a guy like 731 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 1: to buy um to fill in to play different roles 732 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: and maybe you know, he'll definitely play special teams. I 733 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: think I think that he's looking at that kind of 734 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: a thing, and maybe he feels like with Ronnie Perkins 735 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: and Josh Oocha and some of those guys, he has 736 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: some guys that might factor in on the edges. So 737 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: Winovich was expendable, Let's get some more depth on the inside. 738 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: But like you bring up ray Kuan McMillan. Don't you 739 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 1: have to expect to see ray Kuan McMillan out there 740 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 1: at the start of training camp calling the defense, calling 741 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: like and you're like, yeah, what are we doing? Yeah? 742 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,760 Speaker 1: Here we go. Yeah, that's what I kind of expect. 743 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,959 Speaker 1: He could be out there to start the start camp. 744 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: But will he be there at the start of the 745 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 1: regular season. Well, as long as he's healthy. Yeah, if 746 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,959 Speaker 1: he starts camp, that's what he'll feel like. That's well, 747 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: you know, and how many times do you see that change? 748 00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: Like when the first thing that we see, you know, 749 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 1: with a veteran like rookies that they go in and 750 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: out all the time, you know, oh wow, Miles Bryant's 751 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: getting a lot of run today. And you know, I'm 752 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 1: not making fun of anybody. I'd write it too, but 753 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 1: when you see like a veteran like ray Kwon McMillan, well, 754 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: I just wonder. I just wonder if coming off the 755 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: knee injury, whether they put him out there to start 756 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: saying okay, let's go, and then they see, boy, he 757 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: really just doesn't have it and oh that could he 758 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Yeah, that could happen. Absolutely. That's 759 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,799 Speaker 1: why I said, if he's healthy. Yeah. I also just 760 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 1: wonder what's happening on the edges of the defense. I mean, 761 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: I think we've talked playing about the run defense, and 762 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: you know, say what you will about Dante hide Tower, 763 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: but I think he's the last year set the edge 764 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 1: when he needed to set the edge. I don't know 765 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 1: who's set in the edge now. I don't know who's 766 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 1: going to set the edge of the of the side. 767 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: You got Matthew Jude on one side, okay, but you know, 768 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 1: I just I think there's some holes glaring right now. 769 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: Things that I really think, just from like a basic 770 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,839 Speaker 1: football perspective, you need and you don't have a young, 771 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 1: tough edge guy right now. You have Jude on And 772 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 1: that's about it is Ted Carriss not coming back. A 773 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: sneaky kind of loss. That's a little underrated because you 774 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: know that that line was having trouble last year and 775 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 1: obviously when Trent Brown came back, that help, but it 776 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 1: also helped when they inserted Carriss at guard. It did. Yeah, 777 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: I think that was a good point of conversation throughout 778 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,879 Speaker 1: the year of like you know, maybe one for one, 779 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: maybe you like the skill set of and when you 780 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 1: a little better. But it just worked better with Ted Carriss, 781 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 1: whether it's experience or you know, just his you know, 782 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 1: comfortability within New England. I think it just depends on 783 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: how you feel about a when you if you're pff, 784 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 1: You're like, well, of course they'd let Ted Carriss walk. 785 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:38,479 Speaker 1: They've got the best guard in the league and Michael 786 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:43,880 Speaker 1: and went to playing right, so you know. But but again, 787 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: another you know, conversation Paul and I had is like, 788 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 1: you know, for for all the positive that you say 789 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 1: about Michael and when you he's not Logan Mankins. He's 790 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 1: not a day one walk in. Guess what, I'm playing 791 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: left guard and you're gonna have to drag me out 792 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 1: of here, Like I mean, for whatever reason, he's moved 793 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: around a little bit um so I like that move. 794 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 1: And Mike and I did talk about this a little bit, 795 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 1: and the reason is, like I look at some of 796 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: the things they've done in the last few years and 797 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 1: I've been like, you don't need to give Shaq Mason 798 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 1: this big extension. You don't need to franchise tag Joe Tuney, like, 799 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: just get the next guy, like Ted Carriss, was there 800 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,760 Speaker 1: a market drop off between Joe Tuney and Ted Carriss 801 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,280 Speaker 1: last year, Like did you look at Ted Carris and say, wow, 802 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: they really I'm not saying Joe Tuney's not a better player. 803 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: I'm not being like a Patriots homer and saying wow, 804 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,759 Speaker 1: they were right till that Tuney. No, I'm not saying 805 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 1: that at all. Joe Tuney's a better player than Ted Carriss. 806 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:36,799 Speaker 1: But did you look at that spot and say, wow, 807 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,280 Speaker 1: we really miss Joe Tuney at left guard? It doesn't, 808 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 1: and I don't think you'll miss Ted Carriss at left 809 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: To the layman, it doesn't seem like it was a 810 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: drop off, but like who knows when they go in 811 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: the film room what they know, Like maybe it was 812 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 1: and we just don't realize it. But I'm just telling you, 813 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. You're right, and I don't I don't 814 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:57,879 Speaker 1: ever pretend to be an expert on offensive line play. 815 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: You're absolutely right, Freddie, But when you watched the games, 816 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,720 Speaker 1: did you look at that and say, wow, Ted Carriss 817 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: is getting overwhelmed. They need to make a move there, 818 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 1: like they're like or when when you was playing, like 819 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: they had some issues there's no question early in the 820 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 1: year they had something. They also had a lot of 821 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 1: moving parts. There were guys in and out of the 822 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: lineup constantly early in the year, and once Carris went in. 823 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 1: I kind of think it was more coincidental than it was, 824 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 1: you know, as a result of a drastic upgrade between 825 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 1: Harris stabilization, right. I just think it kind of it 826 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,880 Speaker 1: coincided with the line jelling a little bit, and Carris 827 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: was the beneficiary. I think, O, when you will play, 828 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 1: he's gonna start somewhere. If Brown comes back, he'll start 829 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 1: definitely at guard. If Brown doesn't come back and they 830 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: need to replace both, they have a decision. I think, O, 831 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: when you will stay at guard either way, and Haran 832 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 1: might be the right tackle, and then we'll start to 833 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 1: look at things. But I don't think a when you 834 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,320 Speaker 1: was a problem. I think he was a good young player. 835 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,760 Speaker 1: I don't think he's great. But I like the idea 836 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 1: of saying, yeah, Ted, Carris did a nice job for 837 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 1: us last year. Six million a year. Okay, thanks Ted, 838 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 1: I'm good with that. You know, we're all like, we 839 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 1: gotta improved where we got improve the line, gott improve cornerback, linebacker, 840 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 1: and then Bill says we can't improve special teams. Let's 841 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: bring in mac Wilson. Johnny Hecker is available too. I 842 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:23,760 Speaker 1: don't know a punterer move. He's leave the punter alone. 843 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:27,279 Speaker 1: He's fine. Eric, you you you are very very defensive 844 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: of I get of my special teams, I know, but 845 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: Hecker he's a weapon. I like Bailey. He's our guy 846 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 1: two years for full what's the guy, the San Jose 847 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:43,879 Speaker 1: State guy? Oh Arizon, Yeah, the punt god. Yeah, he's 848 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,799 Speaker 1: the guy coming left footed. That's right. I don't need 849 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 1: an offense anymore, except the punter only plays when you're 850 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 1: off exactly. Eight five five pass five hundred is the 851 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: a stick at line web radio at Patriots dot com. 852 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:04,719 Speaker 1: Let's open it up, see what people are thinking about, right, Yeah, 853 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,800 Speaker 1: we'll start with Chris with a T. I A N. 854 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 1: Can't wait to stop. Christian. Hey, guys, what's happening? Hey? 855 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:16,800 Speaker 1: Not much over here? Literally, I am. You know. I 856 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 1: didn't expect expect him to do that much coming off 857 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,799 Speaker 1: the last year, obviously, and I figured Jackson was gone. 858 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 1: You know my I kind of have like a hope 859 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 1: and a worry at the same time. You know, the 860 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: hope is that the guys that they signed last year 861 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 1: obviously get better if they stay here. Um, and then 862 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: the guys that were you know, good last year improved. 863 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,280 Speaker 1: My My, my question to you is is the coaching 864 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: in place to do that? Yeah, you have Bill, but 865 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how good Mayo and Steve are And 866 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:56,720 Speaker 1: I have no idea on offense who's who and who's 867 00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: doing what and who's good enough to for those guys 868 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 1: taking step next step. Like if Josh was there, I 869 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 1: feel a lot better obviously, but he's not, so, you know, 870 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 1: and I just that's my concern. Like you've dole out 871 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 1: a ton of money last year, you better get something 872 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 1: from Joe Husmith this year. Um, I lost all faith 873 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 1: in Harry. But I'm hoping that guys like uh, you know, 874 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 1: m Jacoby Buyers and Kendrick Bourne can take another step. Um. 875 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if they fit there seiling it. So 876 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 1: that's kind of like where I'm coming from, Like I 877 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: didn't expect them to make big moves, but I do 878 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: worry about going into the season, like and they got 879 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: to nail another draft again, like they got to get 880 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: another exactly that might be the most important element out 881 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 1: of everything that you talked to. Absolutely, they need more 882 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 1: young players. That that's my concern about what they did 883 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 1: yesterday is it's great to bring back the band, but 884 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: you know, thirty seven, thirty seven, thirty five, thirty four, 885 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:57,360 Speaker 1: like they need to get younger, and resigning all of 886 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: your thirty something year old veterans isn't the way to 887 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,840 Speaker 1: do it. Yeah, And they need Dev back there, Like 888 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 1: I didn't mind that, Like I I think that I 889 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,800 Speaker 1: love having him there for guys like Dugger, you know, 890 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 1: um to continue to learn from a mentor so. And 891 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,359 Speaker 1: I quite frankly I think they need him. I mean 892 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 1: even with Phillips, uh, you know back there, and I 893 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:19,800 Speaker 1: starting to think, I'm I might be too high on Dugger. 894 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 1: You might be I might be okay, And that almost 895 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:24,879 Speaker 1: never happens on this show. No, No, I mean I thought, 896 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 1: I remember last year, like there were times where we 897 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:28,839 Speaker 1: were like, oh, Dugger's not quite taking the second year 898 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 1: league Phips. Last time Paul was high on somebody who 899 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 1: was on the Patriots, he got traded a Buffalo. Oh, 900 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 1: I just shake your head and said, he said, all right, 901 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 1: said all right, I think I'm one. I'm worrying that 902 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,239 Speaker 1: maybe I'm a little higher, like, what is wrong with 903 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:54,920 Speaker 1: the tandem of Phillips and Unner Like nothing that we 904 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 1: had to have this guy back for nine million plus 905 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: more money on I think we're good at debt safety. 906 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 1: I just yeah, I'm finally I think just a point 907 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 1: though to to Christian though, is I mean, I think 908 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: you've seen this kind of defensive coaching configuration the last 909 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 1: few years. But you know, especially for Steve and Gerard, 910 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 1: they've had a veteran group and so now I think 911 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,919 Speaker 1: you're really going to see what those guys have because 912 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 1: there probably is. We've been talking about going to have 913 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: a bunch of new players that they're going to have to, 914 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: you know, not only teach the system, but figure out 915 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,320 Speaker 1: what they do well and adapt and and you know, 916 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,919 Speaker 1: maybe bring their own twist to this new thing, because 917 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 1: it's not all right, we know we can do this 918 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 1: with VANOI will do this with High Tower. Put Collins 919 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 1: over there, you know, like it's it's it's gonna be 920 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 1: all new to them too. And if you're going to 921 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,879 Speaker 1: have less of the head coach involved on the defensive side, 922 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 1: then I think it's even more on them. So that 923 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: that that's what I'll be interested to see, is is 924 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 1: how they manage this and who else they bring in? 925 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:51,759 Speaker 1: Would you would is it fair to say that the 926 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:56,280 Speaker 1: younger your players, the more your coaches should be experienced 927 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 1: that that's another point that Mike. When Mike was talking, 928 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 1: that kind of made me worry a little more. And 929 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:03,800 Speaker 1: maybe that's why they feel like they had to have mccordy, 930 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: because right they're not awfully confident in the instruction. And 931 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 1: I mean, and you know, it was also just another 932 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,840 Speaker 1: button on it is that Steve Belichick was really involved 933 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:14,240 Speaker 1: with Ronnie Perkins. So you know, it's the guy you wanted. 934 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,400 Speaker 1: You're gonna get to go, get a chance to play. Now, 935 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 1: we'll see what you can do with them. Collaborative, COLLABORI 936 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,319 Speaker 1: collection one other thing, just to say real quick, um 937 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 1: for another Alabama guy the Bills. The Bills are adding JD. McKissick, 938 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 1: which is a you know, a good receiving back kind 939 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:29,719 Speaker 1: of interesting move. Just somebody I kind of on my 940 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 1: radar a little bit with with the Patriots, but you know, 941 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: just more what they wanted, what they wanted that stiff 942 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: breeder to do for them last year. Yeah, I think 943 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,320 Speaker 1: it's a good, good little signing for them. Let's go 944 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 1: to Eldred in North Carolina. Eldred, I'm just dropping the 945 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,239 Speaker 1: ball in that Monday and game for no reason. Hey, 946 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 1: how y'all doing good? I'm not happy. There's a surprise. 947 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 1: You don't want to say it, but I'm gonna say 948 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:57,320 Speaker 1: it's like, hey, no, no, I gotta say the average. 949 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 1: I would have got my hunt honey badger and been 950 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 1: happy with him because, like I said, I don't I 951 00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 1: don't remember seeing a forty last year or your full 952 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,280 Speaker 1: as impact place. I don't see it as I'm safety 953 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: for eighty something millions. That's a bunch of bull that's 954 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 1: a bunch of bulls. And like I said, Jim, I 955 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 1: don't like it. Coach, I love him to death. Jim 956 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 1: I never did like like some of his move He 957 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:24,280 Speaker 1: always paid his buddies. You always paid the foot soldiers 958 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,759 Speaker 1: that told that line in whatever. But no, million's not 959 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 1: do for leadership, especially when you can't lead on the field. 960 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 1: You lead by example. Yeah, and I'm like, no, yeah, 961 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:36,920 Speaker 1: I would have. I would have kept j T. You know, 962 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 1: I have corners because you got some safeties, but you 963 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,880 Speaker 1: ain't got no corners. Would you would rather have signed 964 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 1: j C. Jackson, fred or resigned mccordy. If you can 965 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 1: only have one j C. Jackson, me too. J C. Jackson, 966 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,279 Speaker 1: me too. And I'm not I'm not shedding tears that 967 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 1: JC Jackson's gone. I've been pretty consistent. I think he's 968 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 1: a good player, not a great player, but I would him. 969 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 1: I would rather have kept him now. And then did 970 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 1: you get another corner in the draft or someone like that, 971 00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:08,719 Speaker 1: and then you may have a tandem on it. But 972 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 1: right now you got five nine, five eleven flow corners 973 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,439 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be an air attack all year long. See, 974 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying. It's just and and yes, 975 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 1: McCardy didn't make any big dynamic plays. He's not. You know, 976 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 1: I thought there was a drop off flash, you know, 977 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:31,640 Speaker 1: in the minority. But I think what the coaches would 978 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:34,799 Speaker 1: tell us is you don't understand what he's doing out there. 979 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 1: That's why you don't think that he had an impact. Well, 980 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to use that as the barometer, 981 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,040 Speaker 1: then why do we talk about any of this? No, no, 982 00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 1: but but obviously the coaches know a lot more than 983 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:49,600 Speaker 1: we do. No, I know. But but in terms in 984 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 1: terms of getting the calls, making sure people in there. 985 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:54,919 Speaker 1: You know. Now, now the whole new corners, the whole 986 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: defense played terribly in December, including him, you know, like 987 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:03,360 Speaker 1: you have to include everybody in that conversation at the 988 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,320 Speaker 1: end of the season, like, now, why that happened is 989 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,759 Speaker 1: something that they need to figure out, and they're never 990 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 1: gonna tell us the answer. But no one played well 991 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 1: at the end, you know, and he's part of that, right, 992 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 1: and we decided to bring the band back together. One 993 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:24,120 Speaker 1: more question I have to run. Would you keep Jacobe 994 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 1: Myers instead of let him walk get a stuck around, 995 00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 1: cause you really ain't got no receiver and Harry ain't 996 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 1: gonna never jump to a first round in the NAP 997 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 1: five years Well, they tended Myers right right, yes? Yeah, 998 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 1: So so would you take a second round? I think yeah. 999 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 1: His his question is if someone you know shows interesting, 1000 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:43,800 Speaker 1: Jakobe Myers, would you take the second round pick for 1001 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: him or do you feel like you need the receiver 1002 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 1: too much? To you need receiver? I do think you 1003 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 1: need the receiver, but I think you could get a 1004 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 1: second that's probably more. Okay, that's the thing. Are you 1005 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:57,120 Speaker 1: gonna get somebody that's better than him in the second 1006 00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 1: round and maybe maybe not immediately. I certainly would think so. Yeah, 1007 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:03,759 Speaker 1: but wow, well I think he's pretty good. And the 1008 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 1: second in the second round, yeah, you might get somebody better. 1009 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 1: You gotta be able to get a better second. I 1010 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 1: don't know, you have to. Yeah, I mean I know that, 1011 00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 1: all right, thanks, Aldred. I know everybody looks at everybody 1012 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:21,719 Speaker 1: looks at Belichick's track record or wide receivers, and I 1013 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 1: think that they're scared to death of it. But there's 1014 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,319 Speaker 1: a lot of good receivers in the second round. Yeah. 1015 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 1: But you know, Jacobe Myers, what was he drafted in? 1016 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:35,800 Speaker 1: There wasn't But now, like where would he be drafted? Like, 1017 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 1: not knowing what he is? Now, where do you think 1018 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 1: he would be drafted three? Early day three? I mean, 1019 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 1: I still don't think he has the measurables to like 1020 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:49,040 Speaker 1: light it up. But I mean I would still say 1021 00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 1: he's better than like the Slate Bolden guy that everybody loves. 1022 00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:53,320 Speaker 1: But you know, I think he's got good size and 1023 00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 1: good athleticism, but I just don't think he has the 1024 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,759 Speaker 1: any any plus, you know, one of those things in 1025 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,920 Speaker 1: the scouting combine where they're gonna say, oh, I agree 1026 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:03,080 Speaker 1: with Mike. I think you'd get drafted. I don't know 1027 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 1: how high, but I think you would be drafted somewhere 1028 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,520 Speaker 1: in there. Yeah, we didn't talk at all about Deshaun Watson. 1029 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: You know, awhere Saints and Carolina sounds I mean Falcons, 1030 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 1: and I thought the Browns too, and the Browns were 1031 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 1: another one. Yeah, he's talked I think to the Saints, Panthers, 1032 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:25,280 Speaker 1: and Browns. Well, I heard that the only two teams 1033 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:27,480 Speaker 1: that he would allow to be traded to were the 1034 00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:30,000 Speaker 1: Saints and the Panthers. But now it seems to open 1035 00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 1: up something. Sat Atlanta was a dark horse. I mean 1036 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 1: we saw something that that John mcclein and San Francisco 1037 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 1: is possibly lingering too. Yeah. John McClean retweeted somebody from 1038 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 1: Carolina that said that that they have a deal in 1039 00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:46,759 Speaker 1: place for him that would include Brian Burns, Jeremy Chin 1040 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: and two two three, three ones and two good young players, 1041 00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: which would be a good haul for Houston, I think. 1042 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 1: But I mean, the only thing that makes sense to me, 1043 00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,880 Speaker 1: Like I know that Indie looked into it in the category. 1044 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 1: You're not going to trade him in the division. I 1045 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:05,400 Speaker 1: think anything else would be I don't think you want 1046 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,879 Speaker 1: him in your own division. Um, you know in his prime. 1047 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:10,920 Speaker 1: It's not like Drew. You know, back in the day 1048 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:14,000 Speaker 1: when Drew was sort of, you know, nearing the end. Yeah, 1049 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,399 Speaker 1: you know what, you didn't really care where he went. 1050 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,360 Speaker 1: This guy's twenty six years old. He could kill you 1051 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:23,840 Speaker 1: for another ten years. Yep. So all right, let's go 1052 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:27,719 Speaker 1: to William and Philham. What's up, William Fellas, what's going on. 1053 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 1: How y'all doing good? Good? Okay? Um um saying I'm 1054 00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 1: with you, Paul, Kyle Dugg, I'm high on him. I'm 1055 00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 1: a fan, man. No, if you want to add the 1056 00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 1: Honey Badger, fine, but don't get rid of Kyle Dugger. Nah. 1057 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:46,880 Speaker 1: May I'm a fan on that one, definitely. And and 1058 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:50,480 Speaker 1: you're right too also, Paul. You know Bill's drafting on 1059 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:52,360 Speaker 1: wide receiver. It just hears the hell out of it. 1060 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:54,879 Speaker 1: I'm one of those one of those fans. Yeah, it does, 1061 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:56,800 Speaker 1: because I'm telling you, every year we used to have 1062 00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 1: I guess you said in the draft it always was 1063 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,160 Speaker 1: a good receiver. Bill, Just I don't know what the 1064 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:04,799 Speaker 1: hell he'd be thinking. Man, Honestly, don't buy it's something 1065 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,760 Speaker 1: really wrong with you. As the coach, he's the greatest 1066 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:09,840 Speaker 1: of all time with it, but as the GM, he 1067 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:12,839 Speaker 1: stuck man like y'all, y'all gotta call it what it is, like, y'all, 1068 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:14,880 Speaker 1: that's the scout candle that for real. He needs to 1069 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:18,239 Speaker 1: let the scout cander, not him. I'm sorry, is this it? 1070 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: And Miles Jack I would love to have him, So yeah, 1071 00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:24,759 Speaker 1: that's all right, thanks William. I just want to kind 1072 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,760 Speaker 1: of just to defend my bringing up to Kyle Dugger's 1073 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:31,560 Speaker 1: name earlier, and just because I didn't say I wanted 1074 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 1: to trade him. I said he's a potential guy that 1075 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 1: you could put on the trade market in mid season, 1076 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,080 Speaker 1: before the trade deadline if he starts playing like he 1077 00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 1: did last year. Because I remember at the beginning of 1078 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,759 Speaker 1: last year, we were saying coming out of camp, coming 1079 00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 1: out of the preseason, he's not quite what we thought 1080 00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 1: we were getting coming into the year two. He was 1081 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,800 Speaker 1: a little weak in coverage. He made a couple of 1082 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,520 Speaker 1: nice plays, you know, tackles open field, that kind of thing, 1083 00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 1: but we saw him and I remember all of us saying, boy, 1084 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:02,359 Speaker 1: he's not really playing kind of the way we thought. 1085 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 1: End of the season, he made a couple of nice plays. 1086 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:06,880 Speaker 1: He had that pick in the Jacksonville game, but everybody 1087 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,320 Speaker 1: played well in that game. So I just want to 1088 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 1: say that. I'm not saying I want to get rid 1089 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:13,360 Speaker 1: of him. I still have hope for him, but I 1090 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:14,880 Speaker 1: think he's a guy that you need to look at 1091 00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,040 Speaker 1: as a potential. If he's still not living up to 1092 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 1: things in year three, you have to consider it. I 1093 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 1: don't think he's great in courage. I think he's adequate, 1094 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 1: but I don't think he's great in coverage. I don't 1095 00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: think safeties in general are great in coverage. I don't 1096 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:27,719 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of those guys. That's why I 1097 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:32,120 Speaker 1: think the Bill's tandem is so impressive. Yeah, let's go 1098 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:36,799 Speaker 1: to Rashad in Baltimore, Harashod, Hey, what's up? What's up? 1099 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,279 Speaker 1: I gotta jump on a cow dugger thing because I'm 1100 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 1: definitely a fan of Coward. Okay, you see, I mean 1101 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,400 Speaker 1: he's young, he's still developing. To mean, is he going 1102 00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 1: I'm liking I'm liking a jump, I'm liking a jug 1103 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 1: Scott forbid, somebody has a different I agree Eric hates him, 1104 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:56,800 Speaker 1: but I don't know him. But I wanted to talk about, 1105 00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 1: like the free agency Umm, I'm guessing I want the 1106 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 1: Patriots just to just to just to get a like 1107 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 1: a veteran corner like you. I don't even have to 1108 00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:10,200 Speaker 1: be nobody who going to be here for a long time. 1109 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:12,480 Speaker 1: Just somebody can be here just two years, just to help, 1110 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 1: because I'm pretty sure we're going to draft a corner, 1111 00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,040 Speaker 1: so just somebody who can help. They should have just 1112 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 1: franchised jac Jackson. You know, like, I agree with you. 1113 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I don't think. I don't think he's 1114 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 1: looking for a veteran corner to make seventeen million dollars. Well, 1115 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:31,399 Speaker 1: I'm still I'm still on my boat. I don't think. 1116 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:34,200 Speaker 1: I mean, Jason, he was good, but he's not elite. 1117 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:36,640 Speaker 1: He's not elite.

Let's stay Brady. 1301 01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:54,440 Speaker 1: The picture he posted was him at from the Tampa 1302 01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 1: guy didn't I didn't look at the thing. I know 1303 01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:59,280 Speaker 1: you didn't. I was asking something. I was on part 1304 01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:03,960 Speaker 1: of this thing printed in kills more trees than anybody 1305 01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:08,320 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. Yeah, do you file that. We're just 1306 01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:10,520 Speaker 1: talking about how you know, and when we're doing the show, 1307 01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:17,440 Speaker 1: we should reference just look, the animals need the trees. Eric, 1308 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 1: think about that. My second question is whether you guys 1309 01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:29,600 Speaker 1: think that's another great moment from all right, Welcome back 1310 01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:34,160 Speaker 1: to Patriots Unfiltered eight five five ticket Hotline web radio 1311 01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:39,800 Speaker 1: at Patriots dot com. It's the email address so kind 1312 01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:41,160 Speaker 1: of read some. Yeah, one of the things we were 1313 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,600 Speaker 1: talking about during the break, Uh, that Adam Schefter tweet 1314 01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:49,400 Speaker 1: about Deshaun Watson. You know, I I know he gets 1315 01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:53,960 Speaker 1: very you know, defensive when people say, oh, you're carrying 1316 01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:56,880 Speaker 1: water for this person or that person. But that was 1317 01:06:56,960 --> 01:07:01,439 Speaker 1: obviously just repeating what the agent told him. You know, yeah, 1318 01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:06,560 Speaker 1: it seems like he gets locked into communicating with agents 1319 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:08,720 Speaker 1: and managers and you know, it's like you got to 1320 01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:10,840 Speaker 1: take a second, I think. I mean, I don't know, 1321 01:07:11,840 --> 01:07:14,000 Speaker 1: you need you need to develop your sources and you 1322 01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:16,800 Speaker 1: want your sources to trust you. But part of that 1323 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:20,680 Speaker 1: is like explaining to the source, I'm going to be 1324 01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 1: objective here, and if I write something good it has 1325 01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:26,919 Speaker 1: more weight than if I'm just carrying water and write 1326 01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:30,080 Speaker 1: something good. He didn't have to say anything no, you know, 1327 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:34,080 Speaker 1: negative there, and to me, it's it. I even think 1328 01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 1: this is less about just taking the agent, but just 1329 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 1: has some common sense, like the fact that he wasn't 1330 01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:46,800 Speaker 1: criminally charged with anything does not equate innocence, right, which 1331 01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:50,480 Speaker 1: is basically what he intimated with the you know, Watson 1332 01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:54,040 Speaker 1: felt all along the truth. Oh what do we got, Patriots? 1333 01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 1: What do we got? James White? Oh? Okay, resigned, resigned 1334 01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:02,160 Speaker 1: James White to year two point five million? Deal? Can't 1335 01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:05,000 Speaker 1: have enough thirty somethings. Oh, that's it two point five 1336 01:08:05,080 --> 01:08:08,439 Speaker 1: total or per year? That's a total, Tom Pella sero, 1337 01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:12,480 Speaker 1: that's a deal. That's a deal? Is it yeah, Okay, 1338 01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:18,639 Speaker 1: a million a year for James White guaranteed. That's a deal. Well, 1339 01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:22,000 Speaker 1: he's coming off a serious hip injury. I don't worry 1340 01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 1: about it. No, I think he was gonna get like 1341 01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:29,080 Speaker 1: cash in all market, had all kinds of competition for 1342 01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:32,000 Speaker 1: his services. I thought he'd made three four million. He 1343 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:34,840 Speaker 1: only made three last year when he was healthy. When 1344 01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:38,160 Speaker 1: he was healthy. Now he's coming off a hip surgery. Oh, 1345 01:08:38,160 --> 01:08:39,439 Speaker 1: if he's not gonna play, and you know what, we 1346 01:08:39,479 --> 01:08:41,439 Speaker 1: sign him. Obviously they think he's gonna play, right, No, 1347 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,040 Speaker 1: I know, but how well Fred like the guy like 1348 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:45,960 Speaker 1: Jamison Williams is coming out of the draft with a 1349 01:08:46,040 --> 01:08:48,600 Speaker 1: twenty acl. He's going to play at some point. We 1350 01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:50,840 Speaker 1: just don't know when, and we don't know how well. 1351 01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:56,840 Speaker 1: Great deal once again, Patriots chess chess chess. I think 1352 01:08:56,920 --> 01:08:59,679 Speaker 1: take a ten and eight team that got blown off 1353 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 1: the yield to lose the playoffs and pull a Tampa Bay. 1354 01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:05,720 Speaker 1: He wasn't part of that. He wasn't pull a Tampa Bay. 1355 01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 1: Let's bring the band back, let's keep the band together. 1356 01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:11,639 Speaker 1: That it wasn't part of that demise. Somehow, the Super 1357 01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:14,519 Speaker 1: Bowl champs decided to run it back and were mocked 1358 01:09:14,560 --> 01:09:16,560 Speaker 1: and ridiculed for it. I think, but the ten and 1359 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:18,519 Speaker 1: eight Patriots who got knocked out the first round of 1360 01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:21,080 Speaker 1: the player I think James, I'm not forcing a fourth 1361 01:09:21,160 --> 01:09:22,720 Speaker 1: thound in the game. I think he's a good guy. 1362 01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:24,840 Speaker 1: Think he's a good guy too. I think he's nice. Yeah, 1363 01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:29,720 Speaker 1: I would disagree with that. One of my favorite all 1364 01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:32,360 Speaker 1: time Patriots. Yeah, I think. Uh. I mean, I think 1365 01:09:32,360 --> 01:09:33,600 Speaker 1: it's something they kind of had to do. I mean 1366 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 1: that I brought m Kissick before the break. I think 1367 01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:38,719 Speaker 1: they needed a receiving back. He saw some good chemistry 1368 01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:41,760 Speaker 1: between the two low money, you know, the older guy. 1369 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I like not to dismiss Paul's point about 1370 01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:46,880 Speaker 1: you need young guys to get talented, but I think 1371 01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,400 Speaker 1: that that's a given what's out there, what they need, 1372 01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:52,040 Speaker 1: what that room needs, what they can afford. It's all 1373 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:54,280 Speaker 1: about what you've had. Can I ask a question? I 1374 01:09:54,320 --> 01:10:00,400 Speaker 1: have another because I know it's coming. I I want 1375 01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:03,720 Speaker 1: to apologize for two reasons. Number one, I completely cut 1376 01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 1: you off in the middle of a sentence. I want 1377 01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:07,320 Speaker 1: to apologize for that. But a number two, I don't 1378 01:10:07,360 --> 01:10:08,920 Speaker 1: want you to think this has anything to do with 1379 01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:12,600 Speaker 1: anything you've said, because it doesn't. Did the Patriots have 1380 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:15,920 Speaker 1: a culture issue last year? I don't know. I'm asking 1381 01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:18,760 Speaker 1: what your opinion is, Oh, this is gonna be good. 1382 01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:21,640 Speaker 1: I think they might have. I don't know. Okay, I 1383 01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:24,479 Speaker 1: don't know. I didn't sense that at all, but evidently 1384 01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:28,120 Speaker 1: they did. Evidently you're right, because that is the number 1385 01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:32,840 Speaker 1: one priority. And again, no disrespect intended to a lot 1386 01:10:32,880 --> 01:10:35,559 Speaker 1: of guys that I really really like in some cases 1387 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:39,799 Speaker 1: really really respect, like Mike Reese. Have the utmost respect 1388 01:10:39,880 --> 01:10:41,800 Speaker 1: for Mike reest. If he writes it once, he writes 1389 01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:44,200 Speaker 1: it a hundred times in the last three weeks about 1390 01:10:44,680 --> 01:10:48,200 Speaker 1: the culture fit. And these moves were clearly made with 1391 01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:51,160 Speaker 1: the culture. I wasn't aware that the Patriots had a 1392 01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:54,120 Speaker 1: culture problem. Well, and now I'm a little worried about 1393 01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:55,960 Speaker 1: Now I'm even like you know me, I get worried 1394 01:10:55,960 --> 01:11:00,040 Speaker 1: about random crap. I almost said you almost did, so 1395 01:11:00,120 --> 01:11:02,559 Speaker 1: I get worried about a lot of these little things. 1396 01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:04,200 Speaker 1: What if it was, well, I'm worried that they had 1397 01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:05,960 Speaker 1: a culture problem that I didn't know about last But 1398 01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 1: if it was less a culture thing than more of 1399 01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:15,800 Speaker 1: differences of opinion among players, you know, and not that's 1400 01:11:15,800 --> 01:11:18,760 Speaker 1: a culture problem. Well, yeah, I mean you guys not 1401 01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:20,640 Speaker 1: on the same page. Yeah, it's not like but now 1402 01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:23,400 Speaker 1: you were brought up your culture not yeah, but no, 1403 01:11:23,520 --> 01:11:25,280 Speaker 1: but I know what, I know what you're saying. But 1404 01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:29,439 Speaker 1: it wasn't It was less um you know, like, oh, 1405 01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:32,320 Speaker 1: I'm not bought into playing football that type of culture 1406 01:11:32,400 --> 01:11:35,479 Speaker 1: thing less than what we're doing. I don't agree with 1407 01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:38,680 Speaker 1: what we're doing. That's a culture problem. That's what I'm 1408 01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:40,800 Speaker 1: talking about. Well, like, yeah, I mean remember the famous 1409 01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:43,800 Speaker 1: quote from Matthew Slader about you know, hey, this can 1410 01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:47,679 Speaker 1: go oh, And I was for that, for being concerned 1411 01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:50,720 Speaker 1: about that, right, right that we hadn't heard anything like 1412 01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:53,679 Speaker 1: that come out of that locker room. And I can't 1413 01:11:53,720 --> 01:11:55,920 Speaker 1: even remember the last grade or something. I see the 1414 01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:57,360 Speaker 1: same who's the one that said, you know you need 1415 01:11:57,439 --> 01:12:00,240 Speaker 1: it's time to look in the mirror? That was later, 1416 01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:02,559 Speaker 1: I would say, because this could go one of two ways, 1417 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:04,400 Speaker 1: Like you could either pack it up, pack it up 1418 01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:07,360 Speaker 1: and go home and quit or something along those lines. Yeah, 1419 01:12:07,720 --> 01:12:09,160 Speaker 1: or we could sider I know what I'm going to 1420 01:12:09,240 --> 01:12:11,720 Speaker 1: do something like that, right, and you had you know, 1421 01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:14,960 Speaker 1: we had the um, we have more news over there. 1422 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:16,200 Speaker 1: You look like you have that look on your face. 1423 01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:20,439 Speaker 1: We had the quote from Van Noy, I don't remember 1424 01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:22,799 Speaker 1: if it was during the season or right after the season, 1425 01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:25,880 Speaker 1: where about like you know judeon oh yeah, being able 1426 01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:27,680 Speaker 1: to run around and do his own thing, which may 1427 01:12:27,720 --> 01:12:29,400 Speaker 1: have had something to do with why he was let go. 1428 01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:32,200 Speaker 1: But you know, you had JC Jack. I wasn't aware 1429 01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:34,479 Speaker 1: there was a culture issue, but now you know, evidently 1430 01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:36,280 Speaker 1: they thought it was really important to get every thirty 1431 01:12:36,320 --> 01:12:38,200 Speaker 1: five year old guy that was on the Patriots last 1432 01:12:38,240 --> 01:12:41,200 Speaker 1: year and retain his services or get rid of before 1433 01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:43,840 Speaker 1: you know, like and the other thing that I don't 1434 01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 1: understand is why all of these moves are being made 1435 01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:48,920 Speaker 1: when everybody else is signing other free agents. Why weren't 1436 01:12:48,920 --> 01:12:53,120 Speaker 1: all these moves made last week, Like get your house 1437 01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:56,479 Speaker 1: in order last week, so you're ready to go this week? Right? 1438 01:12:57,320 --> 01:13:01,439 Speaker 1: But I don't know. I love you know, in all seriouses. 1439 01:13:01,479 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 1: You know, I love me some James White. Who does 1440 01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:06,439 Speaker 1: I was on James White before he played, I mean 1441 01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:08,880 Speaker 1: that year that he was basically red shirted. I loved 1442 01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:11,720 Speaker 1: the guy. I thought there was a lot of potential there. 1443 01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:13,880 Speaker 1: I love James White. I just don't think you needed 1444 01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:18,439 Speaker 1: him back. I don't oh I mean it's basically free all. 1445 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:20,920 Speaker 1: All it is is a roster spot at this point, right, 1446 01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:22,920 Speaker 1: And I'd rather have the roster spot with a twenty 1447 01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:24,960 Speaker 1: five year old guy to do that, wow, to see 1448 01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:26,880 Speaker 1: if maybe he can do something over the next three 1449 01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:30,840 Speaker 1: or four years. You know, that doesn't mean we can't. Yeah, 1450 01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:32,320 Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to cut him, but he's 1451 01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:35,360 Speaker 1: costing you someone in that role now, Cap is crap. 1452 01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:38,160 Speaker 1: Paul has nothing to do with the cap. He's on 1453 01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:40,600 Speaker 1: the roster. He's gonna fill that role, I know. And 1454 01:13:40,720 --> 01:13:44,599 Speaker 1: don't worry. Bolden's coming back too. You wait, well we'll 1455 01:13:44,640 --> 01:13:47,320 Speaker 1: see about that. But okay, you wait, He's coming to 1456 01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:53,840 Speaker 1: Joe you next. Yeah, I mean, I would you be 1457 01:13:53,920 --> 01:13:56,320 Speaker 1: surprised if the fourth round they pick a guy that 1458 01:13:56,680 --> 01:13:59,400 Speaker 1: is a running back, you know, a pass catching running 1459 01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:03,120 Speaker 1: back Cook from Georgia. I would you would be? Yes, Okay, 1460 01:14:03,600 --> 01:14:05,360 Speaker 1: I would based on this signing, I would be. I 1461 01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:08,160 Speaker 1: would not be they only have six draft picks, I 1462 01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:10,240 Speaker 1: would not be. I would be a little more surprised. Now, 1463 01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:12,720 Speaker 1: but I do like James Cook from Georgias as a 1464 01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:15,760 Speaker 1: fit Dalvin Cook's brother. Um, but I mean, can we 1465 01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:19,000 Speaker 1: tie the Josh thing into this of losing offensive coordinator. 1466 01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:24,840 Speaker 1: We don't really have a coach, you know, having that though, Mac, 1467 01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:30,160 Speaker 1: we need one from from Andrey Stevenson too. It's on 1468 01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:33,559 Speaker 1: fire today. I'm not like, I'm not gonna lie it's 1469 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:35,960 Speaker 1: in his bonnet. I thought, I thought there was a 1470 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:38,880 Speaker 1: couple of things that were priorities. And I totally agree 1471 01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:40,760 Speaker 1: with your original premise, Fred, that I heard you talking 1472 01:14:40,800 --> 01:14:44,400 Speaker 1: about as I was walking in. We didn't think they 1473 01:14:44,439 --> 01:14:46,720 Speaker 1: were going to go hog wild two years in a row. 1474 01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:49,600 Speaker 1: So I'm not disappointed in them for not doing that. 1475 01:14:49,720 --> 01:14:52,599 Speaker 1: And that's nothing to do like the whole they don't 1476 01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:54,960 Speaker 1: want to spend money thing nonsense. That's not what I'm 1477 01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:58,960 Speaker 1: talking about. I thought they needed to get faster and younger. 1478 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:06,120 Speaker 1: I've done neither. Okay, retaining old, slow guys is not 1479 01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:08,880 Speaker 1: what I would want to do. This still over twenty 1480 01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:13,040 Speaker 1: roster spots available and guys can get you know, so 1481 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:16,240 Speaker 1: we'll see right now, you're right, they haven't addressed that yet. 1482 01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:21,400 Speaker 1: You know, they have not addressed that yet. Let's go 1483 01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:23,680 Speaker 1: to Christian. If you think they can address it with 1484 01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:25,519 Speaker 1: young guys that cost a lot of money, then you 1485 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:31,639 Speaker 1: agree with me about the cap. Then what's that. I Well, 1486 01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:33,599 Speaker 1: we talked about it as you were. This is another 1487 01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:36,600 Speaker 1: thing we were talking about as you walked in the catridge. 1488 01:15:36,640 --> 01:15:38,800 Speaker 1: I let it go. Okay, then I'll let that go. 1489 01:15:39,160 --> 01:15:42,080 Speaker 1: That dumb remark, let's go to Christian. Let's go to Christian. 1490 01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:44,400 Speaker 1: Then anytime you can sign a guy to a one year, 1491 01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:46,640 Speaker 1: nine million dollar deal and his cap numbers less than 1492 01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:49,320 Speaker 1: nine million, the cap is craped. Well because like there's 1493 01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:52,080 Speaker 1: gonna be dead money with mccau like, there's a million 1494 01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:55,040 Speaker 1: ways to do it, a million ways to do No 1495 01:15:55,120 --> 01:15:56,840 Speaker 1: one's saying that you don't have to do things to 1496 01:15:56,920 --> 01:15:58,880 Speaker 1: do it. But that's the only sport that you can 1497 01:15:58,960 --> 01:16:01,960 Speaker 1: get around the cap. Football and hockey you can't do. 1498 01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:05,280 Speaker 1: It's a looser cap, absolutely no doubt about it, because 1499 01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:09,760 Speaker 1: fifty three guys, you gotta be somewhat flexible. Christian. What's up, 1500 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 1: Hey you guys, Good to talk to you again. Um, so, 1501 01:16:14,240 --> 01:16:16,360 Speaker 1: what do you guys think about possibly, you know, pulling 1502 01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:21,320 Speaker 1: an earl Thomas off the scrap heat one two? Give 1503 01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 1: me your top three if we could do it free 1504 01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:26,960 Speaker 1: agent wide receiver and as opposed to your top three, 1505 01:16:27,400 --> 01:16:30,240 Speaker 1: if we can pop to get them. Uh, Draft pick 1506 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:33,160 Speaker 1: wide receivers and then and then lastly, could you guys 1507 01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:36,680 Speaker 1: possibly explain this double cap thing that Aaron Rodgers did. 1508 01:16:36,960 --> 01:16:39,600 Speaker 1: I don't get the map how they they It's like 1509 01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:43,360 Speaker 1: a one time special deal or something like that. Not 1510 01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:47,200 Speaker 1: not familiar with that. Do you have anything you're working 1511 01:16:47,280 --> 01:16:51,479 Speaker 1: off of a report or anything. So supposably they are 1512 01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:56,160 Speaker 1: paying Aaron Rodgers seventy five million dollars over three years 1513 01:16:56,880 --> 01:16:59,320 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, one hundred and fifty million dollars over three years. 1514 01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:05,360 Speaker 1: And so what they did was they pushed his contract 1515 01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:09,160 Speaker 1: back three years from twenty twenty four, and they're going 1516 01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:13,920 Speaker 1: to give him a signing bonus each year. Yeah, I 1517 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:16,240 Speaker 1: mean that seems to like, is that some sort of 1518 01:17:16,360 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 1: weird doubles jeopardy is a signing? Yeah, he has I 1519 01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:23,479 Speaker 1: think he has a fifty million dollars roster bonus this 1520 01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:25,759 Speaker 1: year or something like. Yeah, signing bonus is when you signed. 1521 01:17:25,760 --> 01:17:27,680 Speaker 1: But then they have these roster bonuses. If you're on 1522 01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:32,080 Speaker 1: the roster by a certain date, it's guaranteed money. You know, 1523 01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:36,320 Speaker 1: when he knows. They said that if he doesn't play 1524 01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:38,840 Speaker 1: two years now, if he decided even though he's signed 1525 01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:41,080 Speaker 1: for years, if he decides to walk two years from 1526 01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:44,040 Speaker 1: now that, um, the Packers will be stuck with like 1527 01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:50,120 Speaker 1: sixty eight million dollars of dead money. Okay, so like 1528 01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:53,559 Speaker 1: imagine that and they still signed it. Oh what are 1529 01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:59,280 Speaker 1: we going to do? Yeah? Yeah, onto the question old 1530 01:17:59,280 --> 01:18:01,840 Speaker 1: Thomas pull him scrap pet You know, Eric Whytel did 1531 01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:04,360 Speaker 1: well last year. I think he's done. I don't think 1532 01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:06,240 Speaker 1: he can run anymore. I mean, it was a bad 1533 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:08,120 Speaker 1: ending two for him in Baltimore, wasn't it. There was 1534 01:18:08,120 --> 01:18:10,920 Speaker 1: all kinds of issues with him off the field as well. Yeah, 1535 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:12,680 Speaker 1: I think they're good at safety. If you got any 1536 01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:14,800 Speaker 1: old cornerbacks, I'd probably consider pulling any of them off 1537 01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:18,000 Speaker 1: the scrap heap though, right, Yeah, well, you know I 1538 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:20,200 Speaker 1: always loved old Thomas Harry sad to see him go. 1539 01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:22,759 Speaker 1: I didn't think he was too old to play. Probably 1540 01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:25,760 Speaker 1: just a headcase. Um what about the top three free 1541 01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:30,760 Speaker 1: to wide receivers and your top three uh possible draft pick? Oh, 1542 01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:32,960 Speaker 1: Alan Robinson's still a help. Yes, that would be the 1543 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,920 Speaker 1: number one. I don't really if you never you never performed, though, guy, 1544 01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:40,080 Speaker 1: he's always been like, oh if he had a better quarterback, Obie, 1545 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:42,160 Speaker 1: if he wasn't hurt. Oh this than that. He's like, 1546 01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:44,960 Speaker 1: he's almost like a Nikil Harry to me, you know, 1547 01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:47,439 Speaker 1: more more talented. Yeah, but what have you done? Yeah, 1548 01:18:48,160 --> 01:18:50,559 Speaker 1: he's better than Nikil Harry. I mean yeah, I don't 1549 01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:52,679 Speaker 1: even put him in the same sentence as Nikkil Harry. 1550 01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:55,360 Speaker 1: Juju Juju still love the Juju is still out there. 1551 01:18:55,439 --> 01:18:57,880 Speaker 1: I don't have much interest in him, but there's not 1552 01:18:57,960 --> 01:18:59,800 Speaker 1: that much. But there's not a lot, not a lot 1553 01:18:59,840 --> 01:19:03,839 Speaker 1: of names left at this point. That's what you reduced to. Possibly, 1554 01:19:04,120 --> 01:19:07,680 Speaker 1: would you guys possibly see digting deep and getting that 1555 01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:10,479 Speaker 1: Adams and he doesn't want him playing on the cap. 1556 01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:12,360 Speaker 1: We give him a little more than the cap. Either, 1557 01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:14,880 Speaker 1: he's gonna stay. He's gonna stay in Green Bay. He's 1558 01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:17,040 Speaker 1: gonna stay in Green Bay. Well, they're not trading, they're not. 1559 01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:19,720 Speaker 1: You'd have to get they're not they're not getting you'd 1560 01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:21,479 Speaker 1: have to give up a first round pick for him. 1561 01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:23,680 Speaker 1: And I think one of the reasons Rogers resigned with 1562 01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:27,280 Speaker 1: them was the understanding, you're keeping Davantae Adams here, so 1563 01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:30,320 Speaker 1: don't even think about him. There was a report yesterday 1564 01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:32,960 Speaker 1: that there was playing the franchise. He's he's going to 1565 01:19:33,120 --> 01:19:36,200 Speaker 1: sign a new contract. He's going to sign a new contra. Wait, 1566 01:19:36,240 --> 01:19:38,280 Speaker 1: did you you heard that he won't He said he 1567 01:19:38,320 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 1: won't play. He has said he's not going to play. 1568 01:19:40,160 --> 01:19:41,759 Speaker 1: He said, you don't want to play under the franchise, 1569 01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:43,960 Speaker 1: which means they're working out a new deal. What if 1570 01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:46,840 Speaker 1: they can't, they will because that's why Rogers stayed there. 1571 01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:50,320 Speaker 1: He's not going anywhere. Same guys, The same thing just 1572 01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:53,519 Speaker 1: happened with Randy Gregory, right, the Cowboys tweet. It's different. 1573 01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:56,720 Speaker 1: Find Randy Gregory, it's different. Whoa lo and behold something 1574 01:19:56,800 --> 01:19:59,120 Speaker 1: happened and now he's going to those teams. Yeah. Yeah, 1575 01:19:59,120 --> 01:20:01,400 Speaker 1: they changed the langue in the contract and he decided 1576 01:20:01,479 --> 01:20:04,639 Speaker 1: to go to one other team. Right, DeVante Adams doesn't 1577 01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:08,920 Speaker 1: have that luxury. He's franchised. I mean, he's nine years in, right, 1578 01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:10,760 Speaker 1: and so what if the Packers of thinking, you know, 1579 01:20:11,320 --> 01:20:15,640 Speaker 1: DeVante Adams is what he's he's nine ninth seasons in 1580 01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:19,680 Speaker 1: or something. No, DeVante Adams is not entering his tenth year. 1581 01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:22,920 Speaker 1: DeVante Adams is not entering his tenth year, is he. Well, anyway, 1582 01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:25,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you what. I want to give you 1583 01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:28,920 Speaker 1: some stats of the guy who never has performed in 1584 01:20:29,080 --> 01:20:31,559 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one hundred and two catches for twelve hundred 1585 01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:34,519 Speaker 1: and fifty nine yards, in twenty nineteen, ninety eight catches 1586 01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:37,280 Speaker 1: for eleven hundred and forty seven yards, in twenty sixteen, 1587 01:20:37,320 --> 01:20:39,639 Speaker 1: seventy three catches for eight hundred and eighty three yards, 1588 01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:43,400 Speaker 1: in twenty thirteen, eighty catches for fourteen hundred yards, and oh, 1589 01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:46,280 Speaker 1: by the way, fourteen touchdowns that year. That's Alan Robins. 1590 01:20:46,360 --> 01:20:48,280 Speaker 1: Why he always teeds to be that guy that everyone's 1591 01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:51,599 Speaker 1: waiting for them for him to because he's expensive as hell. 1592 01:20:52,080 --> 01:20:55,559 Speaker 1: He's like Brandon Cooks. He got franchised and now he's 1593 01:20:55,560 --> 01:21:00,240 Speaker 1: gonna make bank. You know, Brandon Cooks started his career 1594 01:21:00,280 --> 01:21:02,519 Speaker 1: as a first round draft pick. So he's always been 1595 01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:04,719 Speaker 1: an expensive player, and he has been in two places 1596 01:21:04,760 --> 01:21:08,960 Speaker 1: with terrible quarterback play, Jacksonville and Chicago. Yeah, yeah, that's 1597 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:12,000 Speaker 1: said guy that said he gets a hundred catches every year. 1598 01:21:13,120 --> 01:21:15,000 Speaker 1: Do you guys think his route treat matches what Mac 1599 01:21:15,080 --> 01:21:18,200 Speaker 1: Jones does? Well? Already do What can you tell me 1600 01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:20,479 Speaker 1: just how to curious out? Now? What did you tell 1601 01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:24,320 Speaker 1: me about the Alan Robinson route tree? Yeah? You know 1602 01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:26,600 Speaker 1: his route tree typically from what I've seen. I just 1603 01:21:26,680 --> 01:21:29,040 Speaker 1: looked at his thing on YouTube. He does a lot 1604 01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:30,360 Speaker 1: of he does a lot of out and a lot 1605 01:21:30,439 --> 01:21:32,680 Speaker 1: of comeback, not a lot across the middle stuff, not 1606 01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:34,599 Speaker 1: a lot of deep stuff. Well they need that too, 1607 01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:37,240 Speaker 1: that we need. Yeah, you need every you need, You 1608 01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:42,240 Speaker 1: need talent that. I would take Alan Robinson in a heartbeat. Yeah. Now, 1609 01:21:42,320 --> 01:21:43,840 Speaker 1: if you want to tell me he's a little old 1610 01:21:44,160 --> 01:21:46,320 Speaker 1: and you don't want to you think his best years 1611 01:21:46,320 --> 01:21:49,200 Speaker 1: are behind him, I wouldn't necessarily disagree with that. But 1612 01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:53,320 Speaker 1: you can't. You can't tell me he's never produced too. 1613 01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:56,280 Speaker 1: You can't tell me he hasn't produced. Yeah, he had 1614 01:21:56,360 --> 01:21:58,360 Speaker 1: one bad year, he's a last year. He got hurt. 1615 01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:01,200 Speaker 1: He's a good player, take that back, but one he's 1616 01:22:01,200 --> 01:22:03,040 Speaker 1: already been injured. And how do you put him up 1617 01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:06,800 Speaker 1: against the top three, you know, potential draft pick. Well 1618 01:22:06,880 --> 01:22:09,360 Speaker 1: that's separate. You can still do that, like you can 1619 01:22:09,439 --> 01:22:11,720 Speaker 1: still take I don't want Davante Adams over a draft 1620 01:22:11,760 --> 01:22:14,080 Speaker 1: pick either. I mean, even though DeVante Adams is a 1621 01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:17,880 Speaker 1: thousand times better. Yeah, you can do both. Oh, by 1622 01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:22,960 Speaker 1: the way, it's two years five million for James. Okay, 1623 01:22:23,439 --> 01:22:29,360 Speaker 1: that makes more sense. Yeah, that makes it better. Year 1624 01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:31,599 Speaker 1: was twenty fourteen when you saw him in Green Bay 1625 01:22:31,800 --> 01:22:34,880 Speaker 1: beat the Patriots. Uh, and this is will be his 1626 01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:38,240 Speaker 1: ninth year. Thanks questions, he's been around longer than I thought, 1627 01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:43,080 Speaker 1: so again, yeah, I'll take but he's not healthy, Jamison 1628 01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:47,439 Speaker 1: william he's not going. There was there was the rumor 1629 01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:50,600 Speaker 1: yesterday that the Patriots were in were interested in h 1630 01:22:50,960 --> 01:22:56,519 Speaker 1: Valdes Scantling. That's another receiver's name that was kind of 1631 01:22:56,560 --> 01:22:59,640 Speaker 1: out there. But again that wasn't an imminent signing. That 1632 01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:01,559 Speaker 1: was just one of those kind of like rumor mill 1633 01:23:02,320 --> 01:23:04,080 Speaker 1: they might be interested in. I just love to know 1634 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:06,559 Speaker 1: who they actually are interested in. It's just like there's 1635 01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:08,840 Speaker 1: probably a long list of like guys they've talked to, 1636 01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 1: guys that people made up that they're interested in. Agents 1637 01:23:12,280 --> 01:23:14,560 Speaker 1: they want their guys to be interested Like if you 1638 01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:17,840 Speaker 1: really ask Bill Belichick right now, like who we interested in? 1639 01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:20,400 Speaker 1: Like is it a list of like six guys total? 1640 01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:24,120 Speaker 1: You know, like everybody's connected to them constantly. Let's get 1641 01:23:24,120 --> 01:23:27,120 Speaker 1: to some emails, um web Brady or Patriot dot com 1642 01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:30,960 Speaker 1: one and Stratford writes and according to Tom Pella Sera, 1643 01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:34,120 Speaker 1: the contract for is five million, two years, two and 1644 01:23:34,160 --> 01:23:36,880 Speaker 1: a half million from sweet Feet. I hear Paul's point 1645 01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:39,880 Speaker 1: of giving the younger pass catching running back a chance, 1646 01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:42,800 Speaker 1: But from a long term perspective, is it worth it 1647 01:23:42,920 --> 01:23:45,840 Speaker 1: that White mentor Stevenson for the team's future? What are 1648 01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:50,160 Speaker 1: your thoughts. Here's the thing about players mentoring other players. 1649 01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:52,479 Speaker 1: That's not their job. Yeah, it's over. I mean it 1650 01:23:52,520 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 1: can help and obviously, and all that does just make 1651 01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:56,479 Speaker 1: me worry more that we have a bunch of guys 1652 01:23:56,520 --> 01:23:59,679 Speaker 1: that are lost souls. Well, but we need seven guys 1653 01:24:00,400 --> 01:24:02,519 Speaker 1: thirty five year older to make sure that all these 1654 01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:04,200 Speaker 1: other guys know what to do. But it's otherwise I 1655 01:24:04,240 --> 01:24:06,160 Speaker 1: don't even think anybody to be able to show up 1656 01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:08,240 Speaker 1: to the facility. It does help to have guys who 1657 01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:12,600 Speaker 1: show who you know, show the way by example, you know, 1658 01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:15,439 Speaker 1: it does. It does help to have them, But they're 1659 01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:18,360 Speaker 1: not like, you know, sitting down next to players and 1660 01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:20,720 Speaker 1: going over the playbook and all that stuff they're doing. 1661 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:23,320 Speaker 1: They have to they have their own jobs, yes, their 1662 01:24:23,320 --> 01:24:26,560 Speaker 1: own survival to worry about. But does it help to 1663 01:24:26,640 --> 01:24:28,920 Speaker 1: have guys who lead by example? Yes, it does. Yeah, 1664 01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:30,760 Speaker 1: and it's and it's hard to ignore the like the 1665 01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:33,639 Speaker 1: reverence that Damian Harris has when talking about James White, 1666 01:24:33,680 --> 01:24:36,200 Speaker 1: and like how emotional they got, you know when he left, 1667 01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:39,519 Speaker 1: you know, was hurt. So I think it's good for Mac. 1668 01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:41,240 Speaker 1: I think it's good to have another option. I think 1669 01:24:41,320 --> 01:24:42,920 Speaker 1: James White, we'll see if you can still play. I 1670 01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:46,280 Speaker 1: would love because think Damien Harris last year. It's good. Yeah, 1671 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:49,719 Speaker 1: I agree, Yeah, it's amazing you did that without James White. 1672 01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:53,000 Speaker 1: I know. But like there's a certain to building a 1673 01:24:53,080 --> 01:24:55,680 Speaker 1: team that I do not just purely, you know, like 1674 01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:57,800 Speaker 1: you have to put some thought into it, right, Like, 1675 01:24:58,040 --> 01:24:59,800 Speaker 1: I get it, you're being a little give me one 1676 01:24:59,840 --> 01:25:03,400 Speaker 1: of those guys, maybe two. We have six like guys 1677 01:25:03,479 --> 01:25:07,760 Speaker 1: that don't need the field, but there's a lot of 1678 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:12,759 Speaker 1: guys that their biggest contribution next year will be mentoring 1679 01:25:12,960 --> 01:25:16,559 Speaker 1: in the locker room leadership. Like it just I don't 1680 01:25:16,600 --> 01:25:18,160 Speaker 1: know how many of those guys should be. I love 1681 01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:22,240 Speaker 1: these players, I love them all, but I always listen 1682 01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:23,880 Speaker 1: to Bill it's better to get rid of these guys 1683 01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:25,640 Speaker 1: a year earlier, but a year late. Right now, now 1684 01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:27,920 Speaker 1: were like three years past time. But now we're really 1685 01:25:27,960 --> 01:25:30,879 Speaker 1: talking about three players at this point, right, Slater, mccordy, 1686 01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:34,559 Speaker 1: and now James White. That's it. Yeah right, I mean, 1687 01:25:35,600 --> 01:25:37,679 Speaker 1: I mean, you're not gonna throw Nick Folk into that group, 1688 01:25:37,720 --> 01:25:41,519 Speaker 1: all right? Or Brian Hoyer. I would you would, yeah, 1689 01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:43,800 Speaker 1: because I would rather go with a younger guy at 1690 01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:47,880 Speaker 1: both of those spots. Nick Folk is like, hasn't missed 1691 01:25:47,880 --> 01:25:51,760 Speaker 1: a kick inside fifty yards since Like I'm I'm aware 1692 01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:53,960 Speaker 1: of that, you know, I'm aware of that. On him, 1693 01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:56,280 Speaker 1: I a little bit more on pause with rolling the 1694 01:25:56,360 --> 01:25:59,880 Speaker 1: dice on that one Egyptian doesn't matter. I think it's 1695 01:25:59,880 --> 01:26:02,000 Speaker 1: a matter of time. The guy, I mean, at some 1696 01:26:02,040 --> 01:26:04,639 Speaker 1: point he's gonna revert anywhere. And then, like you say, Paul, 1697 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:08,639 Speaker 1: you just get another kicker then you well, but that's 1698 01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:16,960 Speaker 1: your ward's not mine. You have another kicker, Quinn developmental. Yeah, 1699 01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:20,559 Speaker 1: he's so. Then you bring him up and you start 1700 01:26:20,920 --> 01:26:23,360 Speaker 1: him on the practice squad once once, folks, you know 1701 01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:25,120 Speaker 1: it looks like he can't do it. Then you have 1702 01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:30,240 Speaker 1: him so great you know, competition. Yeah, I think you're 1703 01:26:30,280 --> 01:26:33,280 Speaker 1: not up in arms over each individual guy. I'm up 1704 01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:36,400 Speaker 1: in arms over all of them. Yeah. But like I said, 1705 01:26:36,439 --> 01:26:41,240 Speaker 1: it's only three. Yeah, that's that's too too many in 1706 01:26:41,360 --> 01:26:45,320 Speaker 1: my opinion. Like, I don't be dramatic. I'm not being dramatic. 1707 01:26:45,400 --> 01:26:48,560 Speaker 1: I don't understand what the benefit of all of them is, 1708 01:26:49,720 --> 01:26:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, and I would say especially Slater once you 1709 01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:55,439 Speaker 1: had the worst special teams in football last year and 1710 01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:58,280 Speaker 1: he's the leader of it. Yeah, and backing up Paul's point, 1711 01:26:58,840 --> 01:27:01,000 Speaker 1: Zolac and Bertram right now, they just had their little 1712 01:27:01,200 --> 01:27:02,880 Speaker 1: how they put like what the topic is that they're 1713 01:27:02,880 --> 01:27:05,000 Speaker 1: talking about? Ye? Are the Patriots headed in the wrong 1714 01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:07,639 Speaker 1: direction signing all these guys in the twilight of their career? Okay? 1715 01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:10,560 Speaker 1: Well you know, I just like, I really are not 1716 01:27:10,640 --> 01:27:14,200 Speaker 1: the ones all these guys want me to be. Three guys? 1717 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:16,160 Speaker 1: Do you want me to be snarky? It's five guys? 1718 01:27:17,000 --> 01:27:20,800 Speaker 1: Alan Brian Hoyer is you know what happened to like 1719 01:27:20,960 --> 01:27:23,040 Speaker 1: j Jared Sidema is like you can't back up your mind? 1720 01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:25,160 Speaker 1: Does not that matter or not? I can't keep up 1721 01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:27,640 Speaker 1: with you? Sure it does? Okay, So you don't have 1722 01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:30,559 Speaker 1: to pay your backup quarterback with that veteran is making. Yeah, 1723 01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:33,160 Speaker 1: you can pay a lot less for a backup quarterback 1724 01:27:33,760 --> 01:27:36,240 Speaker 1: if the cat actually matters. And that has nothing to 1725 01:27:36,320 --> 01:27:38,000 Speaker 1: do with why I don't want Brian Hoyer here. But 1726 01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:39,760 Speaker 1: that's beside the point. I think you can have a 1727 01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:42,280 Speaker 1: better backup quarterback that, if he has to play, is 1728 01:27:42,360 --> 01:27:45,840 Speaker 1: better than Brian Hoyer. All right, but we'll never know 1729 01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:48,200 Speaker 1: because evidently we have a culture problem. To me and 1730 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:50,360 Speaker 1: I have to fix it. The world's not to me. 1731 01:27:50,479 --> 01:27:53,759 Speaker 1: The world's not, you know, falling apart because they signed 1732 01:27:53,840 --> 01:27:56,560 Speaker 1: James White. No, the world's not falling apart because of that. 1733 01:27:56,720 --> 01:27:59,439 Speaker 1: It's falling apart because their roster showed that it wasn't 1734 01:27:59,479 --> 01:28:01,680 Speaker 1: strong enough last year and they decided to go with 1735 01:28:01,760 --> 01:28:05,760 Speaker 1: the same guys. Yeah. Wow, that's what it's falling apart over. Well, 1736 01:28:05,920 --> 01:28:08,320 Speaker 1: you're missing the whole point, you know. I don't think 1737 01:28:08,360 --> 01:28:10,360 Speaker 1: they were good enough when the season ended last year, 1738 01:28:10,720 --> 01:28:12,840 Speaker 1: you know, and their solution was let's just keep it 1739 01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:15,880 Speaker 1: all together. I think the linebackers that are so far 1740 01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:19,240 Speaker 1: not returning were more responsible for that than James White 1741 01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:21,280 Speaker 1: who was hurt, or mccordy on the back end as 1742 01:28:21,320 --> 01:28:23,519 Speaker 1: a free safety. I don't blame it on anybody. I 1743 01:28:23,560 --> 01:28:26,519 Speaker 1: don't I don't blame it on anybody. I'm not I'm 1744 01:28:26,560 --> 01:28:29,240 Speaker 1: not blaming I'm just saying those guys weren't the answer. 1745 01:28:29,479 --> 01:28:31,800 Speaker 1: They were all here last year, they weren't good So 1746 01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:34,360 Speaker 1: the end of the year. Everyone should go. No, I'm 1747 01:28:34,400 --> 01:28:38,040 Speaker 1: saying let some of them go. They are. They are 1748 01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:40,200 Speaker 1: letting some of them go. They let jac Jackson go 1749 01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:42,840 Speaker 1: to one young guy, and they let Kyle van Noy go. 1750 01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:47,760 Speaker 1: That's different. They're probably gonna let Bentley go. Hi High 1751 01:28:47,840 --> 01:28:50,599 Speaker 1: Tower probably will go. High Tower will be an example 1752 01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:52,760 Speaker 1: of this. If I ain't High Tower back, then that's 1753 01:28:52,800 --> 01:28:54,760 Speaker 1: another bad move. The rest of them are all young. 1754 01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:57,320 Speaker 1: I would agree with that. You know, now we're getting 1755 01:28:57,320 --> 01:29:00,479 Speaker 1: into like now to me, it's like High Tower in Bentley. 1756 01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:03,920 Speaker 1: Not the same thing. Yeah, letting Bentley go isn't. Oh, 1757 01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:06,599 Speaker 1: they're they're doing it. They're letting them go. No, Bentley 1758 01:29:06,680 --> 01:29:08,800 Speaker 1: is a guy that I wouldn't be opposed to resign it. 1759 01:29:09,600 --> 01:29:11,400 Speaker 1: High Tower, yes, I would be. I think they need 1760 01:29:11,439 --> 01:29:15,639 Speaker 1: to move on. But Ni again, another thirty something I'm 1761 01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:18,720 Speaker 1: fine with. Okay, so they're doing it. They least one 1762 01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:23,479 Speaker 1: guy friend Paul just doing it columns listen in three 1763 01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:28,479 Speaker 1: weeks Free Agent. I railed against that move last year. Okay, 1764 01:29:28,760 --> 01:29:32,000 Speaker 1: but when they do different things, we'll have different things 1765 01:29:32,080 --> 01:29:34,280 Speaker 1: to talk about. We can only do a show that 1766 01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:36,320 Speaker 1: was on the table. I understand, but they agree with you. 1767 01:29:36,360 --> 01:29:39,599 Speaker 1: Then that's right, they did. I don't think they did. 1768 01:29:40,479 --> 01:29:42,080 Speaker 1: I don't think they did. I don't know where this 1769 01:29:42,280 --> 01:29:46,559 Speaker 1: like sudden influx of tent like Miles Jack. Okay, then 1770 01:29:46,640 --> 01:29:49,639 Speaker 1: they heard me on the linebackers special team guy Mac 1771 01:29:49,680 --> 01:29:56,400 Speaker 1: Wilson Alabama. Miles Jack can play like Mac Wilson is 1772 01:29:56,400 --> 01:29:59,519 Speaker 1: a special teamer. Soup. Was that article you just wrote 1773 01:29:59,560 --> 01:30:03,439 Speaker 1: called oh the future at linebacker? Could the addition of 1774 01:30:03,520 --> 01:30:06,840 Speaker 1: Matt Wilson be as sign of changes that come? I hope. 1775 01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:15,120 Speaker 1: So now I'll answer my own question. But LRC justin 1776 01:30:15,200 --> 01:30:17,960 Speaker 1: in Orlando. I know Deuce is all about the front seven, 1777 01:30:18,040 --> 01:30:20,560 Speaker 1: but it seems like the draft focus on the D 1778 01:30:20,760 --> 01:30:24,599 Speaker 1: line is about getting a defensive tackle to pair with Barmore, 1779 01:30:24,680 --> 01:30:28,360 Speaker 1: like the Georgia defensive tackles or Winfrey out of Oklahoma. 1780 01:30:28,439 --> 01:30:30,920 Speaker 1: But how much focus should there be on getting an 1781 01:30:31,080 --> 01:30:34,400 Speaker 1: edge player early in the draft. New England could really 1782 01:30:34,520 --> 01:30:36,880 Speaker 1: use a boost to the defense like they had in 1783 01:30:36,920 --> 01:30:39,840 Speaker 1: twenty twelve when they drafted High Tower and Chandler Jones, 1784 01:30:40,200 --> 01:30:42,800 Speaker 1: setting them up for the next era of success defensively, 1785 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:45,679 Speaker 1: And I'm not sure drafting a corner early will impact 1786 01:30:45,720 --> 01:30:49,080 Speaker 1: the defense as quickly as an investment up front night 1787 01:30:49,439 --> 01:30:52,200 Speaker 1: bottom line, they need a big defensive infusion of young 1788 01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:54,599 Speaker 1: talent over the next couple of drafts so they can 1789 01:30:54,640 --> 01:30:59,280 Speaker 1: afford to sign a top corner like they did with Gilmore. Yeah, 1790 01:31:00,600 --> 01:31:02,479 Speaker 1: hundred percent. I mean I and that's can I ask 1791 01:31:02,600 --> 01:31:04,920 Speaker 1: why why? Because they got no Why does the impact 1792 01:31:05,080 --> 01:31:07,760 Speaker 1: right now? Why does the impact upfront happen faster than 1793 01:31:07,800 --> 01:31:10,840 Speaker 1: an impact in the back. Oh, that's what he thinks. 1794 01:31:11,479 --> 01:31:14,640 Speaker 1: That's why I asked why. I don't know. I mean, 1795 01:31:14,760 --> 01:31:18,320 Speaker 1: I apologize if that's it an, but I'm asking why 1796 01:31:19,200 --> 01:31:22,200 Speaker 1: drafting a first round defensive end, we'll have a faster 1797 01:31:22,320 --> 01:31:26,000 Speaker 1: impact than a first round cornerback. Yeah, I mean I think, 1798 01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:29,040 Speaker 1: I mean, you are involved him in more of the 1799 01:31:29,120 --> 01:31:32,120 Speaker 1: action up front, But I mean I think the better 1800 01:31:32,200 --> 01:31:35,880 Speaker 1: corner could certainly outsign a defensive end. But I mean 1801 01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:38,080 Speaker 1: that's that's where I go. I know we differ on 1802 01:31:38,200 --> 01:31:40,519 Speaker 1: that one, but no, and I'm not listening if they 1803 01:31:40,640 --> 01:31:43,400 Speaker 1: if they sign Um, like, I would want an edge guy. 1804 01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:45,800 Speaker 1: I don't want any part of a defensive tackle at 1805 01:31:45,840 --> 01:31:47,599 Speaker 1: twenty one. I would want an edge guy. But if 1806 01:31:47,600 --> 01:31:50,240 Speaker 1: they signed a good player, I don't care what position plays. Yeah, 1807 01:31:50,680 --> 01:31:54,760 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm asking, just in theory, why a guy 1808 01:31:54,920 --> 01:31:58,439 Speaker 1: that plays one position potentially as a faster impact over 1809 01:31:58,479 --> 01:32:01,040 Speaker 1: a guy who plays another position. I think it's regardless 1810 01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:04,439 Speaker 1: of players of position. To me, it's all about did 1811 01:32:04,520 --> 01:32:06,080 Speaker 1: you get a guy who can play? Like if they 1812 01:32:06,280 --> 01:32:09,639 Speaker 1: Christian Barmore could play, he made an immediate I've heard 1813 01:32:09,680 --> 01:32:12,479 Speaker 1: that about running back, that it's easier to like make 1814 01:32:12,520 --> 01:32:15,120 Speaker 1: an instant impact in the NFL that morning back. Now 1815 01:32:15,240 --> 01:32:17,800 Speaker 1: that makes sense. Yeah, that that makes total sense to me. 1816 01:32:18,200 --> 01:32:20,400 Speaker 1: But like if it's just if they took an instinct position, 1817 01:32:20,439 --> 01:32:24,000 Speaker 1: if they took a cornerback at twenty one and now 1818 01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:26,200 Speaker 1: just having lost JC Jackson, you don't think he'd be 1819 01:32:26,240 --> 01:32:29,120 Speaker 1: in line to be a day one starter. Oh yeah, no, 1820 01:32:29,280 --> 01:32:31,479 Speaker 1: he should right, sure, for sure. And if they took 1821 01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:35,479 Speaker 1: a if they took a defensive end edge guy to 1822 01:32:35,640 --> 01:32:37,960 Speaker 1: play opposite Judean, you don't think he would be in 1823 01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:40,160 Speaker 1: the mix to be a day one starter. Absolutely, So 1824 01:32:40,479 --> 01:32:42,679 Speaker 1: I think I think you know Paul's right, Like, whoever 1825 01:32:42,720 --> 01:32:44,559 Speaker 1: they take him, he's good. Yeah, I don't really care 1826 01:32:44,640 --> 01:32:48,600 Speaker 1: what's good he should be. If he should be in 1827 01:32:48,840 --> 01:32:50,400 Speaker 1: the mix to be a starter, if you do, But 1828 01:32:50,479 --> 01:32:53,840 Speaker 1: I'm not anti Douce here if Deuce Deuce wants defensive linemen. 1829 01:32:53,960 --> 01:32:56,599 Speaker 1: But but I'm with you, but I'm not an anti 1830 01:32:56,720 --> 01:32:59,920 Speaker 1: defensive lineman there either, right, Like I think at twenty one, 1831 01:33:00,080 --> 01:33:01,960 Speaker 1: you got to get a good player, yeah, the best player. 1832 01:33:02,120 --> 01:33:04,479 Speaker 1: I'll just say this. I think that the Patriots defense 1833 01:33:04,760 --> 01:33:07,320 Speaker 1: got pushed around and had no answers at the end 1834 01:33:07,360 --> 01:33:09,280 Speaker 1: of last season. And I think that if you're gonna 1835 01:33:09,560 --> 01:33:12,479 Speaker 1: rebuild your defense, for me, it starts with guys like 1836 01:33:12,600 --> 01:33:15,439 Speaker 1: Christian Barmore and you know, a guy like I've I've 1837 01:33:15,479 --> 01:33:17,719 Speaker 1: mentioned Trey Von Walker from Georgia, who now is probably 1838 01:33:17,800 --> 01:33:19,120 Speaker 1: I mean i've seen him going all the way up 1839 01:33:19,120 --> 01:33:23,040 Speaker 1: at third overall now. But you know that kind of presence, 1840 01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:24,840 Speaker 1: and that's why I love, you know, Trey Flowers. I 1841 01:33:24,880 --> 01:33:27,280 Speaker 1: think he's a tough guy that they that's what they need. 1842 01:33:27,760 --> 01:33:30,040 Speaker 1: Last year. I just it didn't seem like it. In Spurts, 1843 01:33:30,120 --> 01:33:31,880 Speaker 1: they were tough and they were hard to play against, 1844 01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:34,680 Speaker 1: and you know, you liked what you had, but they 1845 01:33:34,760 --> 01:33:36,920 Speaker 1: got pushed around, they had no answers. So you need 1846 01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:39,320 Speaker 1: you need to remake the defense almost in a way 1847 01:33:39,400 --> 01:33:41,880 Speaker 1: like when they brought Gronk in and that kind of 1848 01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:44,880 Speaker 1: refreshed the whole Patriots offense in a way, you know, 1849 01:33:44,920 --> 01:33:46,439 Speaker 1: Gronk and Hernandez. It was a new it was just 1850 01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:49,000 Speaker 1: a new dynamic that you had new so and I 1851 01:33:49,400 --> 01:33:52,400 Speaker 1: think it's easier to have a defensive front guy maybe 1852 01:33:52,479 --> 01:33:56,000 Speaker 1: do that than say a shutdown corner. But it's not impossible. 1853 01:33:56,439 --> 01:33:59,400 Speaker 1: I just think picking at twenty one, you're probably you're 1854 01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:02,000 Speaker 1: just gonna choose what's left. I'll steal some of the 1855 01:34:02,080 --> 01:34:06,200 Speaker 1: headlines I saw when Trey Flowers was made available. Does 1856 01:34:06,240 --> 01:34:11,320 Speaker 1: a return to the Patriots make sense? Yes? Yes, should 1857 01:34:11,360 --> 01:34:13,960 Speaker 1: take him? Yes, yeah, I would take him. Yeah. I 1858 01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:16,479 Speaker 1: wouldn't give him any money, but I would take him. Yeah, 1859 01:34:16,800 --> 01:34:18,360 Speaker 1: let him play for a year and then go get 1860 01:34:18,439 --> 01:34:24,400 Speaker 1: bade by Houston. I would. I'd love to get him back. 1861 01:34:24,439 --> 01:34:28,080 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, he's on the thirty. I mean he's 1862 01:34:28,280 --> 01:34:30,920 Speaker 1: so Yeah, I would. I would take him back because 1863 01:34:30,960 --> 01:34:33,599 Speaker 1: he has familiarity with the system and whatnot, and he's 1864 01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:35,760 Speaker 1: gonna come in and play and it's not like, all right, 1865 01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, can he play like that's but that's not 1866 01:34:38,320 --> 01:34:40,160 Speaker 1: like he's not an edge guy, Like he's not going 1867 01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:42,120 Speaker 1: to give you a sacks. He's not gonna he's gonna 1868 01:34:42,120 --> 01:34:46,080 Speaker 1: stop the run. He's gonna be you know, solid people. 1869 01:34:46,080 --> 01:34:51,160 Speaker 1: I'll just take somebody. Yeah, that is that fair? Right? Um, 1870 01:34:51,640 --> 01:34:54,920 Speaker 1: let's see Marie in Durham, New Hampshire. H just caught 1871 01:34:55,000 --> 01:34:57,360 Speaker 1: up in the last few episodes and as a you 1872 01:34:57,520 --> 01:34:59,960 Speaker 1: mass alum, I have to chime in on the possible 1873 01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:03,000 Speaker 1: ability of an Andy Isabella na Kiel Harry trade. In 1874 01:35:03,120 --> 01:35:05,360 Speaker 1: the past ten years, I've seen about four good things 1875 01:35:05,400 --> 01:35:08,640 Speaker 1: that you mask football games, Andy Isabella, Taj Sharp, the 1876 01:35:08,760 --> 01:35:11,240 Speaker 1: Marching Band, and the fact that the stadium started selling 1877 01:35:11,280 --> 01:35:14,120 Speaker 1: alcohol because you really need to get it to need 1878 01:35:14,200 --> 01:35:16,400 Speaker 1: it through to get through some of those games. Yes, 1879 01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:19,080 Speaker 1: the bar is supremely low with you, mass football, but 1880 01:35:19,200 --> 01:35:20,680 Speaker 1: if you can get a good price for a guy 1881 01:35:20,760 --> 01:35:23,200 Speaker 1: with some potential, and why not. He's only got a 1882 01:35:23,320 --> 01:35:25,519 Speaker 1: year left on his contract, so if he doesn't work out, 1883 01:35:26,479 --> 01:35:28,880 Speaker 1: to the next one, onto the next one. If he 1884 01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:31,320 Speaker 1: does work out, resign him and let him keep growing 1885 01:35:31,400 --> 01:35:33,680 Speaker 1: with mac. I agree. I think that's the kind of 1886 01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:36,760 Speaker 1: move that would make sense. You have a young athletic 1887 01:35:36,920 --> 01:35:40,559 Speaker 1: guy with upside. If it doesn't work, you've lost nothing, right. 1888 01:35:41,280 --> 01:35:43,720 Speaker 1: I agree with that email a thousand percent. I do 1889 01:35:43,840 --> 01:35:48,280 Speaker 1: a similar move of my boiler viscache Chanel chano what 1890 01:35:48,360 --> 01:35:50,759 Speaker 1: I'm talking about? Yeah, well they were pronouncing its channel 1891 01:35:50,840 --> 01:35:55,840 Speaker 1: through the draft process, right, and then today prof it's 1892 01:35:55,880 --> 01:35:58,680 Speaker 1: like Chanel, Oh yeah, thank god, but the same kind 1893 01:35:58,720 --> 01:36:01,599 Speaker 1: of thing. I take flyers on those guys absolutely, especially 1894 01:36:01,600 --> 01:36:03,280 Speaker 1: if you can say bye bye to Harry. I'd be 1895 01:36:03,360 --> 01:36:05,960 Speaker 1: more willing to truss with Isabella because of the speed. 1896 01:36:06,040 --> 01:36:11,880 Speaker 1: And I think, sure, yes, I watched them all through college. Yeah, 1897 01:36:12,360 --> 01:36:14,559 Speaker 1: I've only been thrown on it off on it. Today 1898 01:36:14,640 --> 01:36:16,559 Speaker 1: when I looked at p Reff and it said fronancy, 1899 01:36:16,640 --> 01:36:19,400 Speaker 1: I just caught pronunciation, right, Yeah, but did Aaron do it? 1900 01:36:20,479 --> 01:36:23,880 Speaker 1: Go on? I don't know why. Let's do next week. 1901 01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:27,160 Speaker 1: Let's go in of April. That was the greatest. That 1902 01:36:27,320 --> 01:36:29,120 Speaker 1: was the greatest moment in the history of that meeting. 1903 01:36:29,400 --> 01:36:31,880 Speaker 1: It says here in April, people don't know what we're 1904 01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:34,760 Speaker 1: talking about. That's okay, it's inside you. Um, let's go 1905 01:36:34,840 --> 01:36:37,840 Speaker 1: back to the outline. Patty's an agawam, what's up? Patty? 1906 01:36:39,160 --> 01:36:43,080 Speaker 1: What's up? Guys? I love following up Paul. It's great, Um, Paul, 1907 01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:46,080 Speaker 1: I I agree with you on certain plays, but I 1908 01:36:46,120 --> 01:36:50,280 Speaker 1: think um with a couple of them, like Player and mccordy, 1909 01:36:50,560 --> 01:36:54,439 Speaker 1: Like we don't they're they're certain guys that we don't 1910 01:36:54,520 --> 01:36:56,640 Speaker 1: have replacements for at the time being. And I know, 1911 01:36:56,760 --> 01:36:59,560 Speaker 1: like a backup quarterback you can get anywhere, but I 1912 01:36:59,640 --> 01:37:03,000 Speaker 1: mean that you've heard guys stay it over the past 1913 01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:05,840 Speaker 1: couple of years. I mean, he's probably, aside from Tom Brady, 1914 01:37:05,920 --> 01:37:08,640 Speaker 1: the guy that knows this offensive system the best. But 1915 01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:11,960 Speaker 1: not only that, I mean this is kind of a 1916 01:37:12,080 --> 01:37:14,760 Speaker 1: telling problem that we've seen, Like we've seen them sort 1917 01:37:14,800 --> 01:37:17,680 Speaker 1: of miss more's a quarterback position with Brady. We've seen 1918 01:37:17,760 --> 01:37:20,840 Speaker 1: a miss manage a cornerback position this year. This is 1919 01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:24,559 Speaker 1: the first year since um oh seven when a sant 1920 01:37:24,600 --> 01:37:27,080 Speaker 1: by Samuel left off for the season, though we don't 1921 01:37:27,120 --> 01:37:30,880 Speaker 1: have a clear cut guy in the waiting and even 1922 01:37:30,920 --> 01:37:33,280 Speaker 1: at pretty safety with mccordy, I mean, they haven't. They 1923 01:37:33,360 --> 01:37:36,400 Speaker 1: haven't replenished the well sore to speak or Bellis mc 1924 01:37:36,439 --> 01:37:40,040 Speaker 1: hasn't repunished the well. And to me that that's a 1925 01:37:40,120 --> 01:37:43,400 Speaker 1: little bit more concerning than them just bringing back like 1926 01:37:43,479 --> 01:37:46,840 Speaker 1: a bunch of old guys. It's like, when are they 1927 01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:50,120 Speaker 1: gonna replenish the well? You know? Yeah? Okay, So Patty 1928 01:37:50,280 --> 01:37:52,800 Speaker 1: My point is, instead of some of the guys that 1929 01:37:52,880 --> 01:37:55,400 Speaker 1: you resigned, if they went out and got like Darius 1930 01:37:55,479 --> 01:38:01,840 Speaker 1: Williams for h is it shavarious War, Yeah yeah, yeah, 1931 01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:03,680 Speaker 1: you know, and then maybe you'd say, Okay, well they 1932 01:38:03,720 --> 01:38:07,479 Speaker 1: replaced jac Jackson. That's a guy. You know, they got 1933 01:38:07,520 --> 01:38:09,840 Speaker 1: another guy and they replace them. But instead, you know, 1934 01:38:09,960 --> 01:38:13,439 Speaker 1: we're bringing back thirty five year old safeties because we 1935 01:38:13,560 --> 01:38:15,960 Speaker 1: have to fix the culture. Evidently you can do both. 1936 01:38:17,960 --> 01:38:20,360 Speaker 1: At some point. You can't because they're all signed, I know, 1937 01:38:20,600 --> 01:38:23,360 Speaker 1: but but like you can't sign other guys signing, but 1938 01:38:23,520 --> 01:38:28,839 Speaker 1: signing Devin mccordy did not mean that they couldn't replace j. C. Jackson. 1939 01:38:29,080 --> 01:38:31,600 Speaker 1: Now they may not, and we can criticize them for that, 1940 01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:35,280 Speaker 1: but I don't think that you know, McCord doing that. 1941 01:38:35,439 --> 01:38:37,680 Speaker 1: I can only go off of today, I know, but 1942 01:38:37,920 --> 01:38:40,760 Speaker 1: I'm just saying they're not related. Okay, so you say 1943 01:38:40,800 --> 01:38:43,280 Speaker 1: they're not related. I do. I think they are related. 1944 01:38:43,320 --> 01:38:45,280 Speaker 1: I think that they chose to spend half the money 1945 01:38:45,360 --> 01:38:47,080 Speaker 1: that it would have taken to get a guy like 1946 01:38:47,200 --> 01:38:50,240 Speaker 1: that on mccordy. I would rather take that money and 1947 01:38:50,400 --> 01:38:54,200 Speaker 1: give it to a corner, a young corner. I think 1948 01:38:54,240 --> 01:38:56,599 Speaker 1: they can do both. But you know, we'll see if 1949 01:38:56,640 --> 01:38:58,519 Speaker 1: they do. I don't know, they're gonna have to get 1950 01:38:58,560 --> 01:39:01,439 Speaker 1: another corner. I mean, okay, then I'll rephrase it. I 1951 01:39:01,439 --> 01:39:03,639 Speaker 1: would rather have taken half the money from ac Cordy, 1952 01:39:03,960 --> 01:39:06,240 Speaker 1: got in a corner, and then taken the rest and 1953 01:39:06,400 --> 01:39:09,519 Speaker 1: gotten someone else. Okay, all right, Like we can just 1954 01:39:09,640 --> 01:39:11,400 Speaker 1: keep sad. They could do both. They could do it. Yeah, 1955 01:39:11,400 --> 01:39:14,760 Speaker 1: they could sign anybody they want. We get that, but 1956 01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:16,960 Speaker 1: it doesn't look like they're going to. I just don't think, 1957 01:39:17,080 --> 01:39:22,000 Speaker 1: you know, the signing of Accordy indicates that. I think 1958 01:39:22,040 --> 01:39:24,880 Speaker 1: it's an indication that the direction that they're going, they're 1959 01:39:24,920 --> 01:39:28,599 Speaker 1: decided to keep the veterans intact and go that way 1960 01:39:28,720 --> 01:39:30,640 Speaker 1: because for whatever reason they felt like they needed to 1961 01:39:31,080 --> 01:39:35,880 Speaker 1: And the most often repeated reason for it from the 1962 01:39:35,960 --> 01:39:39,120 Speaker 1: Phil Perry's, the Tom Currents, the Mike Reeses is culture. 1963 01:39:39,760 --> 01:39:41,599 Speaker 1: They felt like it was important to us to keep 1964 01:39:41,840 --> 01:39:44,719 Speaker 1: the leaders in place at once. At some point, I wonder, 1965 01:39:45,080 --> 01:39:47,920 Speaker 1: maybe get some coaches that can be leaders, and then 1966 01:39:47,920 --> 01:39:49,800 Speaker 1: you won't have to worry about your players doing it too. 1967 01:39:50,800 --> 01:39:54,479 Speaker 1: Oh wow, I think you always need to circle the wagon. Guys. 1968 01:39:54,600 --> 01:39:56,640 Speaker 1: Every coach says that, Yeah, let's get either of them. 1969 01:39:56,720 --> 01:39:58,800 Speaker 1: It's a balance. It's a balance. I mean, I don't 1970 01:39:58,840 --> 01:40:01,280 Speaker 1: think you can just, you know, turn everybody over because 1971 01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:04,240 Speaker 1: it wasn't good. But no, I wasn't in favor of 1972 01:40:04,320 --> 01:40:06,920 Speaker 1: turning everybody over. I would have liked to have seen 1973 01:40:07,040 --> 01:40:10,040 Speaker 1: one guy go which one, two guys go which one. Mccordy. 1974 01:40:10,120 --> 01:40:12,559 Speaker 1: I don't think mccordy is worth the money. That's why 1975 01:40:12,560 --> 01:40:16,640 Speaker 1: I brought up the question earlier about him or the 1976 01:40:16,720 --> 01:40:21,960 Speaker 1: honey Badger or take your pick, right, Thomas, he would 1977 01:40:22,040 --> 01:40:26,000 Speaker 1: rather have mccordy, right, But my my preferred choice is 1978 01:40:26,080 --> 01:40:29,640 Speaker 1: Phillips and daughter. Well they've got them. But but but 1979 01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:31,160 Speaker 1: now one of them won't play as much as I 1980 01:40:31,200 --> 01:40:33,760 Speaker 1: want him to play, because mccordy will play every snap. 1981 01:40:34,760 --> 01:40:36,920 Speaker 1: Much like last year when I had all of these 1982 01:40:37,000 --> 01:40:39,559 Speaker 1: linebackers that I wanted to see play, they didn't play 1983 01:40:39,640 --> 01:40:42,720 Speaker 1: because High Tower played every snap and Collins came in 1984 01:40:42,760 --> 01:40:45,559 Speaker 1: in the middle of the year. They play a lot 1985 01:40:45,640 --> 01:40:47,400 Speaker 1: of dimes, they play a lot of three corner and 1986 01:40:47,560 --> 01:40:50,439 Speaker 1: a lot of three safeties. I want less of one 1987 01:40:50,479 --> 01:40:54,559 Speaker 1: of the three as that, but it won't happen. Mccordy 1988 01:40:54,600 --> 01:40:59,960 Speaker 1: will play every snap. I just him in his bonnet, 1989 01:41:00,240 --> 01:41:04,760 Speaker 1: just like this beats all right, listen. I mean I 1990 01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:06,960 Speaker 1: could sit here and put a smiley face on it 1991 01:41:07,080 --> 01:41:08,639 Speaker 1: and just say, hey, it's great that all these guys 1992 01:41:08,680 --> 01:41:10,880 Speaker 1: are that's the passion I love. I don't think it's 1993 01:41:10,920 --> 01:41:12,720 Speaker 1: great that all these guys are back. I'm a very 1994 01:41:12,840 --> 01:41:16,280 Speaker 1: mediocreep guys, three guys, and you brought them all back. 1995 01:41:16,720 --> 01:41:18,639 Speaker 1: Three guys, but they were more than that. They didn't 1996 01:41:18,640 --> 01:41:21,000 Speaker 1: bring them all back. I can't get worked up about 1997 01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:23,040 Speaker 1: those three. I can get worked up about the lack 1998 01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:25,479 Speaker 1: of young talent and that I just don't feel that 1999 01:41:25,720 --> 01:41:29,960 Speaker 1: that those guys are really I guess I stunting the 2000 01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:32,200 Speaker 1: growth of anybody, because you don't have less than of 2001 01:41:32,320 --> 01:41:34,559 Speaker 1: mccordy last year than you guys did. I thought mccordy 2002 01:41:34,680 --> 01:41:36,639 Speaker 1: was a big part of the problem last year at times. 2003 01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:38,880 Speaker 1: Big I just thought he's I think he's fine. I 2004 01:41:38,920 --> 01:41:40,720 Speaker 1: think he plays free safety now and the other two 2005 01:41:40,760 --> 01:41:42,400 Speaker 1: guys do the heavy lifting and he just kind of 2006 01:41:42,479 --> 01:41:44,280 Speaker 1: keeps everything on the back end in order. And I 2007 01:41:44,360 --> 01:41:47,280 Speaker 1: thought mccordy was gone. Remember that, Remember that mackenzie run 2008 01:41:47,360 --> 01:41:49,519 Speaker 1: down the sideline in the playoff game. Cordy came over 2009 01:41:49,600 --> 01:41:51,800 Speaker 1: this way and then turned just chased them up aside, 2010 01:41:51,840 --> 01:41:53,600 Speaker 1: like I have like eight of those in mind. I 2011 01:41:53,720 --> 01:41:55,280 Speaker 1: do too. That's why I didn't think he was coming 2012 01:41:55,320 --> 01:41:58,479 Speaker 1: back bad angles. Like you know, you're talking about you 2013 01:41:58,560 --> 01:42:00,120 Speaker 1: need someone to get the calls in. But he was 2014 01:42:00,160 --> 01:42:03,960 Speaker 1: the one who's complained about the calls. Ye, like, I 2015 01:42:04,040 --> 01:42:07,360 Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah, And again this is not about his career, No, 2016 01:42:07,479 --> 01:42:09,800 Speaker 1: it's about right now. I'm talking about right now. If 2017 01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:13,439 Speaker 1: we're talking about patriots, Devin mccordy's a great patriot, great, 2018 01:42:13,600 --> 01:42:16,760 Speaker 1: not a good one. Great. Same with James White, same 2019 01:42:16,800 --> 01:42:22,680 Speaker 1: with Matthew Slater, same with Dante Hi. Great players, I 2020 01:42:22,760 --> 01:42:27,120 Speaker 1: would think, so, yeah, yeah, I mean, especially based on precedent. Well, 2021 01:42:28,080 --> 01:42:30,639 Speaker 1: I didn't want to say that. Especially based on precedent. 2022 01:42:30,720 --> 01:42:34,840 Speaker 1: He belongs over about half the guys that we've elected. Yeah, 2023 01:42:35,280 --> 01:42:37,759 Speaker 1: all right, let's get back to the phones. They're stacked 2024 01:42:37,840 --> 01:42:46,639 Speaker 1: up here. Let's get to Brian in Indiana. What's up, Brian? Hey, Hey, Hey, 2025 01:42:46,760 --> 01:42:49,840 Speaker 1: I'm not even I'm on your side of the argument, Paul, 2026 01:42:49,880 --> 01:42:52,760 Speaker 1: but I'm not even surprised. I mean, and y'all I 2027 01:42:52,880 --> 01:42:58,360 Speaker 1: just heard y'all McCarthy good, great, great, Patriot. That not 2028 01:42:58,560 --> 01:43:00,559 Speaker 1: to me. I didn't like the contract like he got 2029 01:43:01,439 --> 01:43:05,439 Speaker 1: last time they resigned him. That's just my personal opinion 2030 01:43:05,520 --> 01:43:10,360 Speaker 1: on him. I've always felt like he was this is 2031 01:43:10,479 --> 01:43:12,960 Speaker 1: my thing, and I wasn't gonna call. But listening to 2032 01:43:13,120 --> 01:43:16,400 Speaker 1: Paul and Douce, I mean, not Paul, listening to Fred 2033 01:43:16,479 --> 01:43:22,240 Speaker 1: induced frustrates me. Uh. Had Bill chose to get rid 2034 01:43:22,280 --> 01:43:24,599 Speaker 1: of all of these people that you complaining about, Paul, 2035 01:43:25,360 --> 01:43:27,560 Speaker 1: it would have been the right thing to do, and 2036 01:43:27,680 --> 01:43:31,280 Speaker 1: everybody would be excited for you, Fred and Deuce Da. 2037 01:43:31,640 --> 01:43:36,080 Speaker 1: Whatever Bill does is the right thing. I mean, I 2038 01:43:36,080 --> 01:43:38,920 Speaker 1: don't see why you still fighting. You've been working with Paul. 2039 01:43:39,320 --> 01:43:41,880 Speaker 1: You've been working with Fred for how long? I know, 2040 01:43:42,000 --> 01:43:44,920 Speaker 1: But I still fight him now, and I'm starting to 2041 01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:50,639 Speaker 1: like fightin. I'm lockstep with y'all. Get him out. Jason 2042 01:43:50,760 --> 01:43:55,920 Speaker 1: Jackson's check out. Y'all gonna want to pay him fine? 2043 01:43:57,400 --> 01:44:00,559 Speaker 1: The Dana pisses me off about the boss just sports media, 2044 01:44:00,920 --> 01:44:04,200 Speaker 1: and I knew it. It was like clockwork, Okay, everybody 2045 01:44:04,320 --> 01:44:06,920 Speaker 1: been saying they can I go sign Jackson. It's kind 2046 01:44:06,960 --> 01:44:09,560 Speaker 1: of been a foregone conclusion for months. They wouldn't go 2047 01:44:09,680 --> 01:44:13,200 Speaker 1: resign them, right, of course, here comes to smear campaign. 2048 01:44:13,479 --> 01:44:16,599 Speaker 1: Right now, I'm hearing all of these things about Jackson 2049 01:44:17,040 --> 01:44:19,679 Speaker 1: that I didn't hear in the two or three years 2050 01:44:19,800 --> 01:44:23,640 Speaker 1: prior that he was here, before his contract was coming up. 2051 01:44:24,439 --> 01:44:27,400 Speaker 1: And it's just typical and it gets under my skin. 2052 01:44:27,640 --> 01:44:37,240 Speaker 1: Who's saying what? But not on this show cartel ever 2053 01:44:37,360 --> 01:44:41,439 Speaker 1: heard before? But here we go convene Bard and all 2054 01:44:41,479 --> 01:44:44,200 Speaker 1: the rest of the wager carriers as Paul like to 2055 01:44:44,280 --> 01:44:50,800 Speaker 1: call them, And uh, it's disconcerting. And I don't know, 2056 01:44:50,960 --> 01:44:53,040 Speaker 1: I don't, I ain't, I ain't got the answers. I'm 2057 01:44:53,080 --> 01:44:56,519 Speaker 1: not the gem Bill is, But that don't mean I 2058 01:44:56,600 --> 01:44:59,760 Speaker 1: can't have an opinion on what I think his g 2059 01:45:00,200 --> 01:45:04,160 Speaker 1: M has turned his gem uh skills a problems, has 2060 01:45:04,320 --> 01:45:07,360 Speaker 1: turned this team into into me is no talent? I mean, 2061 01:45:07,640 --> 01:45:12,400 Speaker 1: dude's will at least complain about that? And and one 2062 01:45:12,439 --> 01:45:15,560 Speaker 1: more thing before I let y'all go. Paul, I'm not 2063 01:45:15,680 --> 01:45:18,960 Speaker 1: fighting the youth moving no more. And the reason I'm 2064 01:45:19,040 --> 01:45:23,040 Speaker 1: not fightingigas because for what get all of these young guys, 2065 01:45:23,600 --> 01:45:27,479 Speaker 1: Bill's not going to play him anyway. Yeah right, I mean, 2066 01:45:27,520 --> 01:45:31,960 Speaker 1: I know you're right, Christian Barma, You're right, absolutely right, 2067 01:45:32,200 --> 01:45:35,799 Speaker 1: all right? You know. Another part of this that worries 2068 01:45:35,840 --> 01:45:38,280 Speaker 1: me is I wonder if maybe he's doing this because 2069 01:45:38,280 --> 01:45:40,160 Speaker 1: he ain't gonna be around that much longer, and he 2070 01:45:40,280 --> 01:45:45,160 Speaker 1: knows it. I think he wants to win football games still, right, 2071 01:45:45,240 --> 01:45:47,360 Speaker 1: So the better way to win football games is to 2072 01:45:47,680 --> 01:45:52,200 Speaker 1: retain your thirty eight year old guys. Not according to you, No, maybe, no, 2073 01:45:53,080 --> 01:45:56,519 Speaker 1: maybe this year right now, you're better off by bringing 2074 01:45:56,600 --> 01:45:59,080 Speaker 1: those guys back, but you're not better off long term. 2075 01:45:59,320 --> 01:46:01,880 Speaker 1: I always i Bill cared about both, because that's what 2076 01:46:02,000 --> 01:46:04,479 Speaker 1: he's always told me. But now I'm wondering if maybe 2077 01:46:04,520 --> 01:46:06,639 Speaker 1: he just looks at it says, whatever gets me those 2078 01:46:06,840 --> 01:46:09,240 Speaker 1: twenty wins or thirty wins or whatever I need now 2079 01:46:09,240 --> 01:46:11,000 Speaker 1: I can get out of here as fast as I can. 2080 01:46:11,840 --> 01:46:15,120 Speaker 1: Maybe that's the better thing for him. I mean, how 2081 01:46:15,160 --> 01:46:19,720 Speaker 1: many guys are under contract for twenty twenty three, Mike Well, No, 2082 01:46:19,960 --> 01:46:25,640 Speaker 1: nineteen now, James White right right, right, right? Yeah, I 2083 01:46:25,680 --> 01:46:29,120 Speaker 1: don't know he brings back Nicko Vicha McGinnis, I'll get where. Yeah, 2084 01:46:29,120 --> 01:46:32,639 Speaker 1: I don't know why Brian's he might as well. They 2085 01:46:32,720 --> 01:46:34,799 Speaker 1: did as much for the defense last year of his mccardick. 2086 01:46:37,880 --> 01:46:39,400 Speaker 1: I didn't know this was going to be such a 2087 01:46:39,479 --> 01:46:42,160 Speaker 1: hot hot buttons. All right, But I'd just like to 2088 01:46:42,200 --> 01:46:45,439 Speaker 1: say in my defense against Brian that I didn't think J. C. 2089 01:46:45,640 --> 01:46:49,120 Speaker 1: Jackson was staying here a month after I started working, 2090 01:46:49,200 --> 01:46:50,840 Speaker 1: and I saw him stand in the locker room and 2091 01:46:50,880 --> 01:46:53,320 Speaker 1: they asked him about Juju Smith Schuster and he rolled 2092 01:46:53,360 --> 01:46:56,679 Speaker 1: his eyes and gave up. And that right there, I said, 2093 01:46:57,040 --> 01:46:59,200 Speaker 1: this guy ain't long for here. That was my question 2094 01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:01,920 Speaker 1: right there, right there. So I'm not coming out to 2095 01:47:02,000 --> 01:47:04,559 Speaker 1: blast him or anything, but this whole time, every time 2096 01:47:04,640 --> 01:47:07,040 Speaker 1: he's done an interview, he's not one of their guys. 2097 01:47:07,080 --> 01:47:09,439 Speaker 1: And you can say not my I'm not. I'm just 2098 01:47:09,560 --> 01:47:12,160 Speaker 1: telling you what they want in a cornerback, what they're 2099 01:47:12,200 --> 01:47:15,519 Speaker 1: going to give forty million guaranteed, not that guy. Not 2100 01:47:15,720 --> 01:47:18,240 Speaker 1: that guy. And I knew it two years ago. Okay, yeah, 2101 01:47:18,240 --> 01:47:20,120 Speaker 1: but you didn't rip them. No, you didn't say all 2102 01:47:20,160 --> 01:47:22,840 Speaker 1: this stuff. Is why I've said this though, I said, 2103 01:47:22,880 --> 01:47:25,599 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what he's making fun of, coming out 2104 01:47:25,640 --> 01:47:27,680 Speaker 1: saying making fun of you. No, he's making fun of 2105 01:47:27,680 --> 01:47:29,960 Speaker 1: the people that are smearing him. You said you didn't 2106 01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:32,040 Speaker 1: think they'd resign him. I get they said they didn't 2107 01:47:32,040 --> 01:47:34,000 Speaker 1: resign him because he's lazy, he doesn't show up to 2108 01:47:34,080 --> 01:47:37,000 Speaker 1: meetings sometime, he's a bad guy. I just it's a 2109 01:47:37,040 --> 01:47:39,320 Speaker 1: big difference. But I'm just trying to say though that 2110 01:47:39,600 --> 01:47:42,800 Speaker 1: on this show, we talk about it, and we talked 2111 01:47:42,920 --> 01:47:44,559 Speaker 1: and that, and that was something that I was saying 2112 01:47:44,640 --> 01:47:46,720 Speaker 1: here when I just started here. So like, you know, 2113 01:47:46,840 --> 01:47:49,439 Speaker 1: don't say that nobody at jac Jackson was a dream 2114 01:47:49,520 --> 01:47:52,559 Speaker 1: and oh, how could this possibly happen? Because we've been talking, 2115 01:47:52,600 --> 01:47:54,639 Speaker 1: We've been debating it all year. I mean, Fred came 2116 01:47:54,640 --> 01:47:56,400 Speaker 1: out for him in this seas Mike and I and 2117 01:47:56,520 --> 01:47:58,439 Speaker 1: we were saying, I don't think it's gonna happen, and 2118 01:47:58,560 --> 01:48:00,960 Speaker 1: so we've been talking about it for a while. I'm 2119 01:48:00,960 --> 01:48:02,640 Speaker 1: not gonna speak to any of the Nikovich stuff, but 2120 01:48:02,920 --> 01:48:05,679 Speaker 1: just but it's not just the nick of it stuff. 2121 01:48:05,680 --> 01:48:07,840 Speaker 1: If you've read the stuff and they're telling you about 2122 01:48:07,880 --> 01:48:11,280 Speaker 1: how he's he's, he's okay, he's like during the season 2123 01:48:11,320 --> 01:48:15,360 Speaker 1: he was mister Iant on you know the local writers 2124 01:48:15,520 --> 01:48:19,320 Speaker 1: twitter feeds, mister Iant strikes again. But now when it 2125 01:48:19,400 --> 01:48:21,920 Speaker 1: got to the point where they clearly had told everybody 2126 01:48:22,000 --> 01:48:24,960 Speaker 1: Queen resigning again, Uh, you know, he's you know, that's 2127 01:48:25,000 --> 01:48:27,360 Speaker 1: a lot of money for a good not great corner 2128 01:48:27,439 --> 01:48:30,160 Speaker 1: I read yesterday in a number of places, not just 2129 01:48:30,640 --> 01:48:34,840 Speaker 1: Rob Nikovich, but to Mike's point, Mike felt Mike had 2130 01:48:34,880 --> 01:48:38,040 Speaker 1: a vibe yeh from the player, that he didn't seem 2131 01:48:38,080 --> 01:48:40,760 Speaker 1: like a patriot guy that they would invest in long term. 2132 01:48:40,840 --> 01:48:42,680 Speaker 1: But and Mike and I were lockstep on you, and 2133 01:48:42,920 --> 01:48:47,439 Speaker 1: Mike's right about like the type of player. But if 2134 01:48:47,479 --> 01:48:50,400 Speaker 1: you're looking at good cornerbacks, they're all like that, you know, 2135 01:48:50,880 --> 01:48:54,320 Speaker 1: like you're not gonna get like. I agree, that's why 2136 01:48:54,400 --> 01:48:57,760 Speaker 1: they just all by the corner. By the way, good 2137 01:48:57,800 --> 01:49:00,559 Speaker 1: wide receive the same thing. They all have their swagger 2138 01:49:00,640 --> 01:49:03,000 Speaker 1: and attitude, speak their mind, but just go over it. 2139 01:49:03,040 --> 01:49:05,000 Speaker 1: I mean it was by the way, I agree with 2140 01:49:05,080 --> 01:49:09,800 Speaker 1: Carlos Heel on the revolution to speaking speak their mind. 2141 01:49:10,760 --> 01:49:12,840 Speaker 1: I shouldn't be playing in those conditions. You shouldn't. They 2142 01:49:13,240 --> 01:49:16,120 Speaker 1: should not be playing games in March. I didn't hear 2143 01:49:16,200 --> 01:49:17,599 Speaker 1: him complaining when they won the game of a couple 2144 01:49:17,600 --> 01:49:19,479 Speaker 1: of weeks ago. I understand that, but I'm just saying 2145 01:49:19,520 --> 01:49:21,679 Speaker 1: the same type of condition. It was crazy. I don't care. 2146 01:49:21,760 --> 01:49:24,960 Speaker 1: I don't like the MLL schedule in March, and I'm 2147 01:49:24,960 --> 01:49:26,920 Speaker 1: sure there's a million reasons why you need to do it. 2148 01:49:27,080 --> 01:49:30,439 Speaker 1: I don't like it. Well I took a turn, yeah, 2149 01:49:30,560 --> 01:49:32,479 Speaker 1: just to make a few more speaking their mind, to 2150 01:49:32,600 --> 01:49:35,320 Speaker 1: make a few more people hate me. Uh. Jamison Williams, 2151 01:49:35,560 --> 01:49:37,960 Speaker 1: same vibe with him. Not not their kind of guy. 2152 01:49:38,080 --> 01:49:40,360 Speaker 1: So sorry to all the guys who want him. That's 2153 01:49:40,360 --> 01:49:42,599 Speaker 1: the same vibe I got about him when I heard 2154 01:49:42,680 --> 01:49:45,000 Speaker 1: him talking in Indian. But but but that's to me, 2155 01:49:45,120 --> 01:49:47,680 Speaker 1: that's relevant. What he's telling you was relevant. It is. 2156 01:49:47,840 --> 01:49:52,360 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you they're making a mistake. What what? What? 2157 01:49:52,760 --> 01:49:55,519 Speaker 1: No like? And you know why Paul Paul acts like 2158 01:49:55,560 --> 01:49:59,400 Speaker 1: I never say these things. I do be but usually 2159 01:49:59,400 --> 01:50:04,120 Speaker 1: well they rare yes, you know, I've been saying this 2160 01:50:04,200 --> 01:50:07,599 Speaker 1: for a while. Wide receivers, cornerbacks, you got to coach 2161 01:50:07,680 --> 01:50:10,640 Speaker 1: them if if you know, if you don't like their personality, 2162 01:50:11,360 --> 01:50:14,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to work through that because there's very 2163 01:50:14,200 --> 01:50:17,720 Speaker 1: few of them are like Matthew Slater as as a 2164 01:50:17,800 --> 01:50:21,040 Speaker 1: wide receiver or cornerback, I mean, can I ask a 2165 01:50:21,160 --> 01:50:25,519 Speaker 1: question like as an owner, mister Kraft, you know, is 2166 01:50:25,560 --> 01:50:27,200 Speaker 1: this is this? And I don't want to, you know, 2167 01:50:27,400 --> 01:50:29,160 Speaker 1: try to make anybody speak for them, but as an 2168 01:50:29,200 --> 01:50:31,799 Speaker 1: ownership looking down at a head coach hand and GM 2169 01:50:32,280 --> 01:50:35,760 Speaker 1: giving out your money. Uh do you like that? Do 2170 01:50:35,880 --> 01:50:40,120 Speaker 1: you like how? Because the bar is extremely high, and 2171 01:50:40,240 --> 01:50:43,240 Speaker 1: I agree it's it's probably too high even regardless of 2172 01:50:43,240 --> 01:50:45,160 Speaker 1: stuff we're talking about right now, because who on the 2173 01:50:45,240 --> 01:50:48,639 Speaker 1: roster right now has been extended? Who like Shaq Mason? 2174 01:50:48,960 --> 01:50:50,880 Speaker 1: I think I think as an owner, guys, I think 2175 01:50:50,920 --> 01:50:53,400 Speaker 1: as an owner, you don't pick like that as long 2176 01:50:53,479 --> 01:50:55,760 Speaker 1: as you're winning. Later if if you have if you 2177 01:50:55,880 --> 01:50:59,120 Speaker 1: have several seasons in a row, if you have several 2178 01:50:59,160 --> 01:51:00,960 Speaker 1: seasons in a row or you're not, then you start 2179 01:51:01,120 --> 01:51:03,800 Speaker 1: nitpicking things like that. Yeah, but as an owner, you don't. 2180 01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:08,240 Speaker 1: You don't worry about those details until you're not winning 2181 01:51:08,240 --> 01:51:10,320 Speaker 1: any because it's just like on the surface, they're not 2182 01:51:10,439 --> 01:51:14,880 Speaker 1: winning anymore. Yeah, they did win. They did win. Unbelievable, 2183 01:51:14,960 --> 01:51:16,680 Speaker 1: they haven't won a game of two years. They left 2184 01:51:16,680 --> 01:51:20,800 Speaker 1: a bad taste in your mouth. They did. They can 2185 01:51:20,840 --> 01:51:24,599 Speaker 1: we not a quate not going winless and not winning 2186 01:51:24,880 --> 01:51:27,479 Speaker 1: like you don't have to go. But it's slowly it 2187 01:51:27,600 --> 01:51:29,640 Speaker 1: goes from seven and nine and ten and seven to 2188 01:51:29,800 --> 01:51:34,200 Speaker 1: like it's really what it is, seventeen and seventeen over 2189 01:51:34,240 --> 01:51:37,160 Speaker 1: the last two years. Okay, so that's that's that's that's 2190 01:51:37,280 --> 01:51:40,679 Speaker 1: that's fact. That's not Paul Snart. There average, that's average, 2191 01:51:40,720 --> 01:51:47,080 Speaker 1: and Bill players average five hundred. You know, you can 2192 01:51:47,120 --> 01:51:52,000 Speaker 1: play that game anyway you want. But you know there's 2193 01:51:52,160 --> 01:51:54,280 Speaker 1: there's still I'm sorry, what game are we playing? You 2194 01:51:54,360 --> 01:51:56,640 Speaker 1: know where they not go seventeen and seventeen last year? 2195 01:51:57,160 --> 01:51:59,639 Speaker 1: Bill Parcels not be a five hundred coach with the Patriots? 2196 01:51:59,680 --> 01:52:02,560 Speaker 1: What was he as a Patriots coach? Yes, you know 2197 01:52:02,760 --> 01:52:06,120 Speaker 1: he was. I mean he's a bad coach. Who said 2198 01:52:06,160 --> 01:52:07,960 Speaker 1: that Bill is a bad coach? You know? Do you 2199 01:52:08,040 --> 01:52:10,840 Speaker 1: talk about making things up? No one ever said anything 2200 01:52:10,880 --> 01:52:13,960 Speaker 1: about belichick coaching ability. I just think as if I'm 2201 01:52:14,080 --> 01:52:18,320 Speaker 1: Robert Kraft, I'm not freaking out yet. You know, I 2202 01:52:18,439 --> 01:52:21,680 Speaker 1: saw improvement. I got, we got our quarterback who we 2203 01:52:21,800 --> 01:52:25,679 Speaker 1: think we can work with. I see things. Okay, Now, 2204 01:52:25,840 --> 01:52:28,040 Speaker 1: like I said, if you have four seasons in a 2205 01:52:28,120 --> 01:52:31,639 Speaker 1: row that you know they get worse, then you start 2206 01:52:31,840 --> 01:52:34,920 Speaker 1: nitpicking Bill. Then you start looking at you know who, 2207 01:52:35,120 --> 01:52:37,840 Speaker 1: you know, the little things that we were just talking about. 2208 01:52:38,120 --> 01:52:41,280 Speaker 1: But right now, like it's kind of waiting the owner. 2209 01:52:41,360 --> 01:52:43,880 Speaker 1: I think a good leader looks at things as they're happening. 2210 01:52:44,400 --> 01:52:46,600 Speaker 1: And doesn't wait for the results to determine whether or 2211 01:52:46,600 --> 01:52:48,800 Speaker 1: not they were good moves. Yeah, I think you look 2212 01:52:48,880 --> 01:52:50,720 Speaker 1: get out in front of things, well, like what are 2213 01:52:50,760 --> 01:52:52,639 Speaker 1: we doing? Do you do? You really want your owner 2214 01:52:52,720 --> 01:52:54,280 Speaker 1: in there saying you know, why did you do this? 2215 01:52:54,360 --> 01:52:56,639 Speaker 1: Why did you do? When you analyze it? You don't 2216 01:52:56,680 --> 01:52:59,560 Speaker 1: wait to see what happens. Well, well, I don't know. 2217 01:52:59,560 --> 01:53:02,639 Speaker 1: I think earned a little bit of leeway. He's had 2218 01:53:02,640 --> 01:53:05,439 Speaker 1: a lots had it, and he's earned it. He's had 2219 01:53:05,439 --> 01:53:07,400 Speaker 1: a lot of it. So what do you? I mean, like, 2220 01:53:07,640 --> 01:53:12,080 Speaker 1: who are you railing against? Who has the giving him leeway? You? You? You? 2221 01:53:12,680 --> 01:53:14,519 Speaker 1: He made a couple of signings I disagree with. I 2222 01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:16,960 Speaker 1: don't want him fired. I mean, let's not make stuff 2223 01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:20,720 Speaker 1: up for I don't know almost I thought I heard. 2224 01:53:20,880 --> 01:53:22,720 Speaker 1: I want to I want to pose a question, and 2225 01:53:22,800 --> 01:53:24,639 Speaker 1: I'm not sure I should because it might be fodder 2226 01:53:24,680 --> 01:53:27,080 Speaker 1: for for years side of the street. But please, we 2227 01:53:27,640 --> 01:53:30,240 Speaker 1: got only fifty three They in the in like the 2228 01:53:30,320 --> 01:53:33,920 Speaker 1: first iteration of the dynasty, did they did they do this? 2229 01:53:34,040 --> 01:53:35,680 Speaker 1: Did they hang on to guys too long? Did they 2230 01:53:35,760 --> 01:53:39,559 Speaker 1: give contracts to guys where? Well, they did the opposite. 2231 01:53:39,600 --> 01:53:43,280 Speaker 1: They did older guys. They constantly recycled the rost. They 2232 01:53:43,320 --> 01:53:45,400 Speaker 1: brought in on the guys immediately, and you know, I 2233 01:53:45,479 --> 01:53:48,479 Speaker 1: brought in Bobby Hamilton and Brian Cotts. He brought in 2234 01:53:48,680 --> 01:53:51,519 Speaker 1: veterans in and out and out, but you can't have 2235 01:53:51,600 --> 01:53:54,200 Speaker 1: those guys staying around too. He brought in veterans that 2236 01:53:54,320 --> 01:53:57,840 Speaker 1: he knew, like he could count on until he got 2237 01:53:57,880 --> 01:54:00,439 Speaker 1: the younger guys to play. Yeah, McGinnis led them on. 2238 01:54:00,720 --> 01:54:04,960 Speaker 1: Right now, you're kind of beginning things. Bruskie was different, 2239 01:54:05,040 --> 01:54:07,360 Speaker 1: yea of his health thing, but that you haven't seen 2240 01:54:07,400 --> 01:54:11,840 Speaker 1: those guys play yet, those younger guys enough, right. I 2241 01:54:11,880 --> 01:54:15,160 Speaker 1: think that Deuce has hit on the problem. And this 2242 01:54:15,320 --> 01:54:17,560 Speaker 1: is why I why I feel like they've done what 2243 01:54:17,640 --> 01:54:21,720 Speaker 1: they're doing right now, is because back then it was, yeah, 2244 01:54:21,800 --> 01:54:23,360 Speaker 1: we can let that guy go because we got this 2245 01:54:23,439 --> 01:54:26,000 Speaker 1: guy coming. We can let Damien Woody go. We got 2246 01:54:26,080 --> 01:54:28,360 Speaker 1: Dan Copen in the fifth round. Like, just as an 2247 01:54:28,520 --> 01:54:30,200 Speaker 1: example right off the top of my head, we can 2248 01:54:30,320 --> 01:54:33,000 Speaker 1: let Ted Washington walk after a year because we're drafting 2249 01:54:33,720 --> 01:54:38,000 Speaker 1: Itz Wilford and you know, trailer, They're not doing that 2250 01:54:38,120 --> 01:54:40,680 Speaker 1: in a consistent basis anymore on that one. And that's 2251 01:54:40,720 --> 01:54:42,720 Speaker 1: why I feel like that they need to retain some 2252 01:54:42,840 --> 01:54:48,040 Speaker 1: of these guys because they feel like they can still help. Unfortunately, unfortunately, 2253 01:54:48,120 --> 01:54:49,800 Speaker 1: because I don't think what you have is good enough. 2254 01:54:50,440 --> 01:54:52,200 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry that I feel that way, but that's 2255 01:54:52,200 --> 01:54:55,800 Speaker 1: how I feel like. I guess that's sitting poorly at 2256 01:54:55,920 --> 01:54:58,840 Speaker 1: some I just think on every team, every coach needs 2257 01:54:58,920 --> 01:55:01,680 Speaker 1: their guys that they can do Penn done, you know, 2258 01:55:01,880 --> 01:55:06,280 Speaker 1: like the old how many of them? But again, like 2259 01:55:06,360 --> 01:55:09,640 Speaker 1: how many are we talking about? It feels like everybody 2260 01:55:09,800 --> 01:55:12,840 Speaker 1: after it after it's not. It feels like it, but 2261 01:55:12,960 --> 01:55:15,560 Speaker 1: it's not. But it's every move they made has been 2262 01:55:15,640 --> 01:55:18,520 Speaker 1: with that in mind. Well that's initially, let's see what happens. 2263 01:55:18,720 --> 01:55:22,760 Speaker 1: Okay again different on Thursday, they resigned mc cordy. Next 2264 01:55:22,800 --> 01:55:26,280 Speaker 1: tuesday later and James White. Next tuesday, we might be 2265 01:55:26,360 --> 01:55:29,760 Speaker 1: talking about four new guys that they might sign, Darius Williams, 2266 01:55:29,800 --> 01:55:32,360 Speaker 1: Alan Robinson and Miles Jack. And I'll have a totally 2267 01:55:32,400 --> 01:55:35,920 Speaker 1: different tone. You're not gonna be here Thursday. I'll have 2268 01:55:36,000 --> 01:55:37,720 Speaker 1: a totally different tone if they go out and they 2269 01:55:37,760 --> 01:55:42,160 Speaker 1: sign younger, big money guys and and and an infusion 2270 01:55:42,160 --> 01:55:43,960 Speaker 1: of town and I'll and I'll go on your side 2271 01:55:44,000 --> 01:55:46,040 Speaker 1: the street, and I'll have a different tone. If they 2272 01:55:46,160 --> 01:55:49,040 Speaker 1: bring back High Tower and Bentley and I'll have a 2273 01:55:49,080 --> 01:55:51,520 Speaker 1: different tone. Yeah, yeah, you know so that I don't 2274 01:55:51,520 --> 01:55:53,320 Speaker 1: think that one more will put you over the topic. 2275 01:55:53,400 --> 01:55:55,400 Speaker 1: I sign High Tower that that'll be it. I said, 2276 01:55:55,560 --> 01:55:58,160 Speaker 1: what are they doing? And you know, well, Bentley's young. 2277 01:55:58,560 --> 01:56:00,480 Speaker 1: Bentley doesn't fall into me. But it's kind of like, 2278 01:56:01,840 --> 01:56:04,080 Speaker 1: you know, like he's a young player, too big. He's 2279 01:56:04,120 --> 01:56:09,080 Speaker 1: only four years ago, as was just I mean, it's funny, 2280 01:56:09,160 --> 01:56:12,480 Speaker 1: you know, but bent least not my problem, Like he's 2281 01:56:12,520 --> 01:56:14,480 Speaker 1: not thirty five years old. I don't like if they've 2282 01:56:14,520 --> 01:56:16,760 Speaker 1: resigned Bentley, I'm not going to add him to the 2283 01:56:16,840 --> 01:56:19,160 Speaker 1: list of I can't believe they're resigning all of these 2284 01:56:19,240 --> 01:56:21,440 Speaker 1: thirty somethings because he's not you'll put them on the 2285 01:56:21,520 --> 01:56:23,120 Speaker 1: I can't believe they said, of these guys that can't run, 2286 01:56:26,080 --> 01:56:27,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, is he any different than efreny Uh? 2287 01:56:28,000 --> 01:56:30,520 Speaker 1: I mean, m what's this guy's name, Ray Kuan McMillan. No, 2288 01:56:30,680 --> 01:56:32,880 Speaker 1: you think Ray Kuan McMillan can run any better than Bentley? 2289 01:56:34,280 --> 01:56:39,360 Speaker 1: Run at all? Right now? Yah? Oh my knee? What 2290 01:56:40,760 --> 01:56:45,280 Speaker 1: this once? It's coming back up on him to fight it. 2291 01:56:45,320 --> 01:56:51,240 Speaker 1: I'm boy. Yeah, I'm just I am a little jacked 2292 01:56:51,280 --> 01:56:55,400 Speaker 1: up today, no question, I I thought. And it's funny 2293 01:56:55,440 --> 01:56:59,040 Speaker 1: because this is exactly what I expected, And sometimes when 2294 01:56:59,040 --> 01:57:03,200 Speaker 1: you're right, it's even more because I just think that 2295 01:57:03,240 --> 01:57:06,600 Speaker 1: they needed to they needed to take steps. I thought 2296 01:57:06,640 --> 01:57:10,520 Speaker 1: they took steps last year to bring in some younger guys, 2297 01:57:10,760 --> 01:57:13,240 Speaker 1: and I thought they needed to continue that, to continue 2298 01:57:13,280 --> 01:57:16,400 Speaker 1: to recycle through that. And I think that they've been 2299 01:57:16,640 --> 01:57:18,800 Speaker 1: literally reluctant to do it. And I don't, but I 2300 01:57:19,120 --> 01:57:22,920 Speaker 1: don't think that what they've done eliminates the possibility of 2301 01:57:23,000 --> 01:57:26,720 Speaker 1: that happening. Hey, I do, yeah, Okay, it's just more 2302 01:57:26,720 --> 01:57:28,480 Speaker 1: of a perception kind of thing. I don't think there 2303 01:57:28,520 --> 01:57:33,520 Speaker 1: are openings now that are apparent to a perspective free agent. 2304 01:57:34,120 --> 01:57:37,720 Speaker 1: You know, with something there's certainly a wide receiver, there's 2305 01:57:37,720 --> 01:57:40,120 Speaker 1: a yeah, there's a job, but there's only one wide 2306 01:57:40,160 --> 01:57:42,200 Speaker 1: receiver worth taking. I don't think they're going to be 2307 01:57:42,200 --> 01:57:44,000 Speaker 1: in I think there's plenty of openings. I think the 2308 01:57:44,080 --> 01:57:49,520 Speaker 1: whole rosters open for crying out loud, starting corner, corner, linebacker, 2309 01:57:50,800 --> 01:57:53,720 Speaker 1: front line. Okay, but if you're gonna like you can 2310 01:57:53,760 --> 01:57:59,000 Speaker 1: sign Jalen Mills. I wanted to sign like a good player, 2311 01:58:00,120 --> 01:58:03,720 Speaker 1: like a guy that was worth right, you know, Like 2312 01:58:03,960 --> 01:58:07,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to just sign like a patchwork guy. Like, yeah, 2313 01:58:07,720 --> 01:58:10,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna sign. They're probably gonna sign a cornerback. Yeah, 2314 01:58:11,000 --> 01:58:13,120 Speaker 1: and then I'm gonna get blood twins. But it's not 2315 01:58:13,200 --> 01:58:16,920 Speaker 1: gonna be you know, yeah, it's not gonna be the 2316 01:58:17,280 --> 01:58:21,320 Speaker 1: guy that's jac Jackson's caliber. Listen, I'm on record saying 2317 01:58:21,360 --> 01:58:23,400 Speaker 1: they should have jac Jackson to be on the team 2318 01:58:23,480 --> 01:58:25,040 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah you are. I mean, what can else 2319 01:58:25,400 --> 01:58:29,560 Speaker 1: you think you'd be disappointed by that? But you're not. Listen, 2320 01:58:29,920 --> 01:58:32,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna move on. I can't. I can't dwell on it. 2321 01:58:32,280 --> 01:58:36,240 Speaker 1: I gotta move on. You know, we got football. It 2322 01:58:36,360 --> 01:58:39,880 Speaker 1: just it just feels like it just feels like that, Yes, 2323 01:58:41,000 --> 01:58:43,040 Speaker 1: we got football to play. They were ten and seven 2324 01:58:43,280 --> 01:58:45,760 Speaker 1: and they made the playoffs. But I think the way 2325 01:58:45,840 --> 01:58:49,480 Speaker 1: the season ended and they will be remembering, and the 2326 01:58:49,520 --> 01:58:52,520 Speaker 1: way the AFC is evolving around them, it makes it 2327 01:58:52,640 --> 01:58:55,520 Speaker 1: look like they're stuck in quicksand right now, right now, 2328 01:58:55,600 --> 01:58:58,160 Speaker 1: they are in Okay, Well, that's all I'm commenting on. 2329 01:58:58,240 --> 01:59:01,640 Speaker 1: I'm not commenting on I get but but and I 2330 01:59:01,960 --> 01:59:03,840 Speaker 1: agree with that, but I don't think the signing of 2331 01:59:03,920 --> 01:59:07,280 Speaker 1: these three guys makes it any worse, Let's put it 2332 01:59:07,360 --> 01:59:09,040 Speaker 1: that way. But it doesn't make it any better. But 2333 01:59:09,200 --> 01:59:11,120 Speaker 1: but it's the point. But right, yeah, but I don't 2334 01:59:11,160 --> 01:59:13,720 Speaker 1: think it prevents them from making it better either. Well, 2335 01:59:13,760 --> 01:59:15,720 Speaker 1: but Mike said it earlier in the show. They need 2336 01:59:15,800 --> 01:59:19,160 Speaker 1: to hit in the draft, whether or not they signed 2337 01:59:19,200 --> 01:59:21,560 Speaker 1: those three guys, they need to do that. Yes, you know, 2338 01:59:21,720 --> 01:59:24,000 Speaker 1: so that's what I'm saying. But it would I think 2339 01:59:24,080 --> 01:59:26,880 Speaker 1: people wanted, had had at least a little bit of 2340 01:59:26,920 --> 01:59:30,000 Speaker 1: hope that they would do something to improving. We all 2341 01:59:30,080 --> 01:59:32,560 Speaker 1: said that, right, we all said that at the beginning 2342 01:59:32,560 --> 01:59:35,800 Speaker 1: of the show. We're not surprised, but we all wanted 2343 01:59:35,840 --> 01:59:39,200 Speaker 1: to be surprised. Yeah, you know, I'm still there. I 2344 01:59:39,360 --> 01:59:43,320 Speaker 1: wanted I'm still hoping to be surprised. You know, there'll 2345 01:59:43,360 --> 01:59:46,080 Speaker 1: be somebody we'll see. I just hope there is something 2346 01:59:46,160 --> 01:59:48,760 Speaker 1: crazy or happens tomorrow and then we don't have pp 2347 01:59:48,960 --> 01:59:53,840 Speaker 1: over here. They signed like an eighteen year old kid, 2348 01:59:53,880 --> 01:59:57,000 Speaker 1: and it's like, hey, we got younger from his couch. 2349 01:59:57,200 --> 01:59:59,560 Speaker 1: If they signed uh, if they signed Miles Jack, we 2350 01:59:59,600 --> 02:00:02,520 Speaker 1: could do it emergency podcast tomorrow.
