00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL Podcast turned down coaching the Bengals.

2
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:11,200
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Around the NFL Podcast.

3
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: My name is Dan Hansis and I have joined in

4
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 1: a room filled with some eros. Chris Wesley to my left,

5
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: Greg Rosenthal to my right. What is up? Boys? How

6
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,599
Speaker 1: are you big? Addition to the studio, it's called the

7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 1: Westling Camp. One of the in house cameras is just

8
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 1: trained on West West at all times. And West not

9
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: comfortable with it. Uh but and it's just displaying in

10
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,160
Speaker 1: front of us on a big screen looking at old

11
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: West's shiny dome. West not comfortable with it. But the

12
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: fact of the matter is Greg and I like it.

13
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: And two beats one. So that is a new tradition

14
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: here at the Round the NFL Podcast. I like my

15
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: head shiny, I like more West's. I mean, imagine a

16
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: show with two West is just like arguing Edie arguing

17
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: at each other. All right, don't know what you're talking about.

18
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm giving him that you're out

19
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: of your treat. We should have that West be in

20
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: favor of instant replay for O P I and d

21
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,199
Speaker 1: P I, and then this West be angry about it. Yeah,

22
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: that way, that way that West hates Joe flaccover this

23
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: it is funny to think about. And you can basically

24
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: look at his brothers and and push this theory forward

25
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: that I just came up with, was that Westwood get

26
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: really sick of West, Like if there was another West,

27
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: they'd be at Oh yeah, that's that's borderline cutting. But

28
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: also like West agrees with you, so that's good. Oh yeah,

29
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 1: neither one would back down. You know. It basically is

30
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: watching you with your brothers. No, it's like Superman and

31
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: bizarre Superman. You know he would be strong rom week

32
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: and vice versa. Have an update. I mentioned this off

33
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: camera off Mike a couple of weeks ago, that the

34
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: old Zeuser was getting some pocket squares for his his

35
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: um blazers. What do you call them? The jackets? Yeah? Uh,

36
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: for our various duties on camera here and I'll tell

37
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: you what was You saw it as what it was.

38
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: It was a gauntlet throwing a gauntlet, Greg reacting with

39
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: a little bit of like, oh where did this come from?

40
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: All right, that's not my game? Well, who shows up

41
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: in a Safari jacket? Oh yeah? Next week? That was

42
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: like there was a coincidence there. So I just want

43
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: everyone to know that in the mail from Amazon arrived

44
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: four new pocket squares and the little device that you

45
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: put in the in the code pocket where you prop

46
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: up the pocket square, and that is making its debut

47
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: next week on the Around the NFL Twitter show. So

48
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: check it out, everybody. Well there's I mean, the ball

49
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: is clearly in our court now. No. My reaction was,

50
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 1: think of how much time I would have spent any

51
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: of your life if I told you every time a

52
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: new clothing article arrived at my house. Yeah, but you

53
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: are not like that. You weren't trying to be the

54
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: rising tide lifting all boats like Dan is here right,

55
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying, listen, the old juser is bringing the pocket squares.

56
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: You look around, every male figure uh in media now

57
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: is dropping the pocket score. Why why haven't we done it?

58
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: Do we want to be taken seriously or not? Finished

59
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: the suit? Finished the suit? Who was that who said that?

60
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: There was a guy who ran into us at the

61
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: Super Bowl at like two thirty in the morning, literally

62
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: ran into it, stopped us and said you all look great,

63
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: you dressed well, but finished the suit? Get a pocket square?

64
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: So Dan's like thinking, like, wow, I just watched one

65
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: of those you know, up to the minute shows from

66
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: two thousand and fifteen. I gotta step up what Andrews

67
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: Ciciliana has been doing since then? See I I hear

68
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: your voice and the tone and it sounds like jealousy

69
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: because you didn't think of this first, because now you're

70
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: in a tough spot. I've I've worn it, actually worn

71

Speaker 1: pockets squares on NFL network multiple times. How about that.

72
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: I've never seen it and that's only been like literally,

73
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: I think it's the auto once. I think right, there

74
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,839
Speaker 1: was one tied into Yeah, I think the the wardrobe

75
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: department once or twice, just put him in there and

76
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: it's like, all right, let's do it. But they were

77
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: not your, they were not mine. They were the nf

78
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: on Networks gauntlet thrown down. You're in a tough bocau

00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: like hands, this is gonna think I did. And now

82
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: you're an impossible spot. I'm not into it. I can,

83
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,200

99
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 1: we're gonna do some news, so let's hit it. I'm

100
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: here so I won't get fine. Beast mode Is that

101
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: a Is that a call forward? It's called a uh,

102
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: not a call back, but the opposite's like a tease

103
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: some news coming up. Beast Mode might uh might have

104
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: a role in the news and beyond on today's show.

105
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,840
Speaker 1: Let's start uh though with a running back. That is

106
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 1: not Marshall Lynch. It is Jordan Howard of the Chicago

107
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 1: Bears have moved the running back shipping into the Philadelphia

108
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: Eagles in exchange for a round pick. This went down

109
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: on Thursday night. The Eagles announced it. Uh. Conditions in

110
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: the trade could flex that selection to a fifth rounder

111
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: in We'll say, Howard's been uh uh, you know, been

112
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,799
Speaker 1: dangled in trade talks since before or even last season.

113
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:02,239
Speaker 1: Tarik Cohen is really um emerged uh in that office,

114
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: especially under Matt Naggy. Uh so, now with Mike Davis

115
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: also in the room, Jordan Howard doesn't have a place west.

116
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: I remember I remember when my first son was born,

117
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 1: or maybe it was my second, it would have been

118
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: two thousand sixteen. Jordan Howard was breaking out on the

119
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: scene and you were never really sold on Howard as

120
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: a player, but he did manage to put up some

121
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 1: numbers and be a productive guy, uh for a while

122
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: there in Chicago. What do you think about where he

123
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: fits in Philly and where he is as a player

124
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: at this stage. Well, I think that he was going

125
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: to be demoted in Chicago, and it's never a good

126
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 1: idea to carry demoted guy who's been used to being

127
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 1: the star of the offense and the demoted demoted he's

128
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: hitting that t hard. I noticed that demoted, demoted, demoted. Okay, sorry, yeah, Well,

129
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: you know he's used to be in the offensive focal point,

130
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 1: which he was under John John Fox, and we knew

131
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 1: last year when Ye came in. Immediately the rumors were

132
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 1: there that Jordan Howard doesn't fit the offense, and we

133
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: saw that his production went way down last year. And

134
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: I think of Jordan Howard. I've always thought of him

135
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: as sort of the late stage Adrian Peterson skill set.

136
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: He's a one dimensional back. No coach wants to play

137
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: him on passing downs, and he's sort of a tell

138
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: for what you're gonna do, so you sort of have

139
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: to tailor your offense to him. And the Bears weren't

140
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: going to do that, and he caught twenty passes for

141
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: them last year, so they tried to make him a

142
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: little bit of a threat in the receiving game. He

143
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: still had two and fifty carries, so he's been next.

144
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: I give the Eagles credit, Like everyone says, you don't

145
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: have to pay for running backs. Easy to find running backs.

146
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: They're not panicking at running back, and they sent the

147
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: sixth round pick in these These fifth and sixth round

148
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: picks are overrated, and I think smart teams like the

149
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: Eagles and the Rams and the Patriots have been using

150
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: them to get veterans who Jordan Howard's not going to

151
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: change their team, but he's gonna fill a hole for

152
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: the two thousand nineteen season and be solid. Doesn't it

153
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: feel like the last couple of years, especially the Eagles

154
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: are the kings of these moods of players that are

155
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: they have some history of success, but they're not superstars,

156
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: but they might be more valuable than people realize. And

157
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: the Eagles bring them into their building. They did a

158
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: great job and they have Corey Clement there. We'll see

159
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 1: who else, uh Gwndell Smallwood, Wendell Smallwood. Maybe they draft

160
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: someone who knows it's not a long term solution, but

161
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: if you need someone to take some carries up the middle,

162
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: they needed someone. Meanwhile, on the throne of Sleeves, the

163
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: New England Patriots thought they had um a defensive coach

164
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: on their staff uh for the twenty nineteen season, and

165
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: Greg Ciano, even although I guess he was never the

166
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: higher was never officially announced, and we didn't know what

167
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 1: they have announced. They have not announced their coaching staff

168
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: at all yet, so they haven't announced any coaching changes,

169
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: and which is a typical Patriots move. They don't do

170
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: it until every last spot is filled. But there was

171
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: an idea out there that he was going to be

172
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator. Yes, I think that was the expectation.

173
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: Well guess what, Greg Siano walks away from the Patriots

174
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: citing a need to step back spend some time with

175
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: his family. Here is a um A statement on the matter.

176
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: I have informed Mr Craft and Coach Belichick that I'm

177
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 1: stepping down from my position. UM this is not the

178
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: result of any one event, but rather a realization that

179
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: I need to spend more time on my faith and family.

180
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to look back years from now and

181
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: wish I had done things differently. Therefore, I'm taking time

182
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: away from the game to recalibrate my priorities. Um. Bill Belichick,

183
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,719
Speaker 1: in a statement, was behind Siano. But this is the

184
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,319
Speaker 1: same Belichick that a couple of days ago and in

185
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: different media context, was talking about how excited he was

186
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: to have Siano on the staff. So something happened. Uh,

187
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: we don't know all the details, but what we do

188
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: know is that Shianno will not be connected to the Pets.

189
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: They've been friends a long time and Belichick said that

190
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,959
Speaker 1: in the statement that he's a close friend. So it's

191
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: not even worth speculating about why. Maybe it's just the

192
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 1: adjustment going from college back to the pros and remembering

193
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: what that's like. Who knows. The faith and family thing

194
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: is interesting? Well, right, I mean, I mean, I mean,

195
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: the college coaching is an easy job compared to the

196
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: NFL job. That's just a fact in terms of the

197
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: hours that you spend. But it's wild, and it points

198
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: out the incredible exodus from the Patriots this offseason, not

199
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: just on the coaching staff, but the defensive coaching staff

200
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 1: is what stands out the most. Here. Here's who left.

201
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: Uh the defensive play caller last year, Brian Flores, cornerbacks

202
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: coach Josh Boyer. They both went to Miami. But yeah,

203
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: I think people know about Flores. The defensive line coach

204
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: Brendan Daley went to the Chiefs coaching assistance to Marcus Covington.

205
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: Mike Pellegrino, Uh also left. Oh No, they might have

206
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 1: to step up. If you go to the Patriots website

207
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: right now and go to their staff, a bunch of

208
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 1: offensive coaching staff, and you can look at their bio,

209
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 1: you know, find out all about Josh McDaniels. There's one

210
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: defensive coach. His name is Steve Belichick. That's it. He's

211
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: the only coach that anyone knows about that's on the staff.

212
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 1: Like what has happening? Picture looks like you just got

213
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: back from a Smashing Pumpkins concert. It's just Bill and Steve.

214
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 1: Maybe that's Bill's dream, you know, it's crazy. I wonder

215
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 1: if there's a little bit of like Michael Jordan going

216
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: on here? What's left to prove? So Belichick's like, what

217
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: if I just run the defense, me and my son

218
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 1: by ourselves. That's a challenge. And to your point, you're

219
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: looking at that Patriots dot com site, the only one

220
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 1: that really matters is the giant photo of the guy

221
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: on top. Everything else I think will be worked out.

222
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if you're raising any red flags on this,

223
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,319
Speaker 1: but come on, Bill knows what he's doing. I think

224
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: it's a little it's it's just another obstacle. And the

225
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: bigger issue is that Rob Gronkowski, you know, retired and

226
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: they lost Darrel Patterson. That to me is a bigger

227
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: concern than the coaches. But I think that's something to manage.

228
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: I mean, they had this plane with Shianna, who he loves,

229
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: and uh, now he doesn't have a coaching less. All right,

230
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 1: let's move on the Raiders. Marshawn Lynch, he spent the

231
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: last two years there. Well, the door might be closing

232
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: for Beast mode because Isaiah Crowell, who spent last year

233
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: with the Jets, signs with the Raiders a one year

234
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 1: deal worth up to two and a half million. Rap

235
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: Sheet reported Thursday. Uh Oakland confirmed the move. Um, and

236
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: you join a backfield that also has Jalen Richard, DeAndre Washington,

237
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: Chris Warren. Uh, Doug the muscle Hamster Doug Martin is

238
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: not in the mix there. Uh and neither it seems

239
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 1: will Marshawn Lynch at this point. Right well. Rap Sheets

240
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 1: said today on our air that it's unlikely Marshawn Lynch

241
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: will be back with the Raiders. There was talk that

242
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: maybe after the draft they could see where they are,

243
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 1: but it seems like this is a move. And I

244
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 1: thought Isaiah Crowell, who I'm sure Jets fans were dancing

245
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: in the street when he was gone and replaced by

246
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: Levy On Bell had some promising games last year. He

247
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: did he I mean, listen, don't get caught up in

248
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: the four point eight yards per attempt he finished. I

249
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 1: was Bradley Roby assisted game against the Broncos when he

250
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: just ran through open stretch five yards on the season

251
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: and over two d came in one game. He was

252
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 1: really he was kind of a nothing burger for much

253
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,719
Speaker 1: of the season, especially in the second half. But yeah,

254
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: maybe you catch him and if you use him the

255
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 1: right way, he can give you a little something. He

256
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: has a replacement level uh running back, yes, I mean

257
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: and and then the Raiders are kind of the team

258
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,959
Speaker 1: at the end of free agency that just almost have

259
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: a little too much money to spend. They also signed

260
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: linebacker Brandon Marshall uh from the Broncos, who I thought

261
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: was maybe one of the better players available. So it's

262
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: not a terrible move. But they're paying. They're you're paying

263
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: just like a little extra, you know what I mean.

264
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: Like the Eagles, they get Jordan Howard, who's on a

265
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: rookie contract, who's better than Isaiah Crowell, who is getting

266
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 1: paid double what Jordan Howard's gonna pay. So it's just

267
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 1: like a small difference of like I think, what the

268
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: smart teams do and what the Raiders do. Um, did

269
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 1: you know that Brandon Marshall pulled a Anthony barr on

270
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: the Graybeards. We had a handshake deal he was gonna

271
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: be our starting linebacker and then he he walks across

272
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 1: the street and the signs with another two to the

273
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,079
Speaker 1: A B or tap the GM app They gotta get

274
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 1: on that. Yeah, they were not taking a question their GM.

275
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 1: We're not officially well that's me. We're not officially recognized

276
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: by the National Football League at this point. In fact,

277
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: there could be litigation coming at some point. Um, but

278
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 1: I would love to be a part of the savvy

279
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: move to to talk to Brandon Marshall, because you're gonna

280
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: have those dumb fans who thinks it's the other Brandon

281
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: Marshall and just say bye bye the ticket for that

282
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: Brandon mar Yeah, that Brandon Marshall was not in negotiations

283
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: with the Gray Beards, which tells you a lot about

284
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: his value. The Dallas Cowboys make a trade. Robert Quinn

285
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: arrives from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for a sixth

286
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: round pick. Uh. He then he takes a little bit

287
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: of a haircut, that's a reduction in pay, signs a

288
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: new one year deal with nine point two million. Uh.

289
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: He could earn up to ten million if he can

290
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: record seven sacks, which feels like a very Robert Quinny

291
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: number eventually. Uh Wes, what do you think about this move?

292
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: Did this make the Dallas defend some line better? I

293
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: think it did. Um. If you look, I'm surprised by

294
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 1: the contract number. That really surprises me. Offensive paying some

295
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: of it. Okay, Um, you look at this team and

296
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: David Irving did not really give them anything last year.

297
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: He was great and flashy is the year before. Um,

298
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory had a really good year. Both those guys

299
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: are gone, and I think you bring in Robert Quinn,

300
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: you bring in Carrie Hyder who was one year removed

301
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: from an eight sack season as a rotational pass rusher.

302
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: They did a good job adding depth. They brought in

303
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:34,239
Speaker 1: Christian Covington from the Texans to play um tackle for them,

304
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: and I think they count on their defensive line having

305
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: a lot of bodies to throw at people and I

306
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: think they did a good job of coming up with depth. Here.

307
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: Let me throw one thing out here, Greg, you tell

308
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: me if this is completely crazy. But we just came

309
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: off a season where Levy on Bell got tagged the

310
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 1: second year and said, no, smell you later, I'll be

311
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 1: back next year with a big contract. Somewhere else is

312
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: this was there a little bit of thought that we

313
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: want to protect ourselves in cases to Marcus Lawrence situation

314
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: turns ugly Apparently on track talks are going nowhere between

315
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: Lawrence and the Cowboys right now. No, because man, they

316
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: can't imagine a world where they wouldn't have DeMarcus Lawrence,

317
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: and he's getting paid so much on the franchise tag

318
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: and be hard to imagine him sitting out. But it

319
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: raises the point that I think they should just be

320
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: spending that money on resigning their old guys. Like I

321
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: get it. Quinn. I've I've always rooted for Robert Quinn.

322
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: But the fact that the Rams and the Dolphins gave

323
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: up on him in back to back years and both

324
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: seasons were so similar, and that he came out of

325
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: the gates in September looking very strong and then his

326
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 1: back issues has kind of made him a career. What if?

327
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: Because for for younger fans who just kind of, you know,

328
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: haven't been following, Like his two thousand thirteen season to me,

329
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: ranks with the best defensive seasons of the decade, and

330
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: it was it was one season, but he had that

331
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: sort of get off and that sort of potential. But

332
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: he hasn't been able and he's known as Yeah, maybe

333
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: I think that could be better that that he's a

334
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: part time guy and he's getting paid a lot. I

335
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: can't I can't kill even the contract. It's more kind

336
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: of the overarching thought that this is necessary because they

337
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 1: can't develop their own guys. Yeah, Randy Gregory, Taco Charleton,

338
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 1: David Irving's gone, and so it was kind of a

339
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,360
Speaker 1: necessary move when they should be really investing in Lawrence

340
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 1: and Amari Cooper and everyone. UM and other news. John Lynch,

341
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 1: a general manager of the forty Niners, has spoken out

342
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: about UM the wide receiver room at the forty Niners,

343
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 1: which he likes, but absolutely people are going to connect

344
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 1: the forty Niners to Odell Beckham and Antonio Brown, the

345
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,439
Speaker 1: two big wide receivers that ended up going to other teams.

346
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: Here's what Lynch had to say on why Odell Beckham

347
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: and the forty niners could never really be Well, you know,

348
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: I would tell you, you know, um Otel, we were

349
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 1: really muchtioned that we had been in it. And um

350
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: I think ironically the fact that we had the number

351
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 1: tick to pick made it more difficult because they wanted

352
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: that badly. They wanted to number ones and we weren't.

353
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,160
Speaker 1: One of the part with that. That's two valuable old

354
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: the pick, and that was an interview with the Athletics

355
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: Matt Barrow. Um. So the fact that they were at

356
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,679
Speaker 1: number two, they were so high up they couldn't justified

357
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: doing it. It was that a mistake. Well, I think

358
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: it tells you that they wanted him every bit as

359
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 1: badly as the Browns did, but not having having that

360
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: number two pick in the first round, it's it's another

361
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: reminder that when we talk about first round picks in general,

362
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: I think analytics have taught us to separate late first

363
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: round picks, mid first round picks, in early first round picks.

364
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: There are generally fifteen to twenty players in every draft

365
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: that separate themselves from the crowd, and you want one

366
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 1: of those top fifteen to twenty picks, but they pick

367
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: might be a lot closer in value to a mid

368
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 1: second round pick than say the tenth pick. And it's

369
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: confusing because you know, they didn't get two first round picks.

370
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 1: You know, the Giants, well, they considered Jabriel Peppers a

371
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 1: first round I don't. I mean, he's already played two

372
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: years and and it's different thing. I guess, I guess,

373
00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess it makes sense though, because the

374
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: Browns have that mid first round picking, it would have

375
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: been a little tricky for the forty Niners to work

376
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,640
Speaker 1: that out and or they might be just offer their

377
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 1: first round pick. But that's not as good. I expected

378
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: the forty Niners to be even a little louder than

379
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: they have been in this offseason, even though they've they've

380
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: been plenty loud ums. Speaking of Antonio Brown and the

381
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 1: comments on k n B r uh Lynch, clearly you

382
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,479
Speaker 1: know he's one of the guys that didn't like what

383
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: was going on with Antonio Brown. It seemed we took

384
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 1: a quick look and then we just said, hey, we're

385
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 1: not interested in that for our team. Well, this is

386
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: that's how I read into that. The second time he

387
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: said almost the same quote. I mean he's repeated this twice.

388
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 1: It's it is interesting the little drips and drabs that

389
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 1: have come out that the recording of Trew Rosenhaus and

390
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown talking about how how desperately they didn't want

391
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: to play for the Buffalo Bills was interesting. The fact

392
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: that the Patriots have now been confirmed as they were

393
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 1: kind of lightly in on on Antonio Brown, but they

394
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 1: weren't willing to give up the same sort of compensation

395
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 1: that that the Raiders were. Here's a poured out there

396
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: about Josh rosen from Joel Clapp appearing on Wednesday's Undisputed?

397
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: What is Undisputed? Who shows that? That's the Skip Bayliss Show.

398
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: Why isn't it just called the Skipping It is confusing

399
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: because they got the two shows, they got the Whitlock Show.

400
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 1: They've had that. I don't know what that's called, but

401
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: it's a confusing name. And then they and then the

402
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 1: Bailiss one. They just just name it after the people. Right,

403
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:30,159
Speaker 1: I'm with you. He's with a sharp brother right, skipping Shannon. Right,

404
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 1: that's right. I called the Skipping Shotton Show. How much

405
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 1: money are you paying these guys? But the names Skipping

406
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 1: skipping one of the Sharp brothers. It's just like depends

407
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: on the day the show anyway. And now we're going

408
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:49,679
Speaker 1: to use their content on our show anyway, uh, Clad

409
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: said Josh Rosen, is quote going to get moved. Clad

410
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 1: added that the Chargers, Giants, Patriots emerged as the top suitors,

411
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: and one of those teams, Charges, Giants and Patriots has

412
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,199
Speaker 1: already offered up a second round pick, which seems like

413
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 1: pretty good value all things considered. Uh. I guess it's

414
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: gonna happen, Greg, just a matter of when I think so.

415
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: I I left just hearing Cliff Kingsbury talk about it

416
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: and believe that, and just reporters talking amongst themselves and

417
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: buzz and all that. I think they know that they'll

418
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: be able to trade them, and they think the best

419
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,880
Speaker 1: offer is going to come closer to the draft. I'm

420
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 1: curious though about the Patriots there. There was sort of

421
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:34,159
Speaker 1: a strong undercurrent from multiple people whether the Patriots are

422
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: putting out there out there to get people off the

423
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: Center not. I don't know that the Patriots were not

424
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 1: necessarily very high on Josh Rosen that that I heard

425
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: from multiple people. It doesn't matter to you either way, though,

426
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 1: because you're out. No. I if you get Josh Rosen,

427
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 1: I'm back in. Yeah. Is it because of the chosen

428
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: Rosen things? I want to root for Josh Rosen and

429
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: that just would be fun. And it's not like I'm out, like,

430
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: oh screw them, They're still gonna be my favorite a team.

431
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: This is just a boring It's like if a team

432
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 1: signed a quarterback named Joss Wessel, I would have to

433
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 1: start following it because it would be the same, you know,

434
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: because that would be just like an interesting plot twist

435
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: that you didn't see it coming. But I think the

436
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 1: Chargers are the most interesting team here, and there are

437
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: some pretty strong rumors connecting them with Drew Locke as

438
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 1: well in this draft. So I think they absolutely in

439
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,199
Speaker 1: the quarterback market right now, really, because I think Omar

440
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 1: Ruiz reported Monday that they are not really looking to

441
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: draft at quarterback. It's silly season. It is tough to

442
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 1: know what to believe. Uh. We talked about it on

443
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: Wednesday's show The Big News. The bombshell news out of

444
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 1: the owners meetings that offensive past interference and defensive past

445
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: interference will be reviewable and at least two thousand nineteen

446
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: the one dissenting vote amongst the owners, it was one

447
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: to one was Cincinnati Bengals owner Mike Brown uh And.

448
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: At the annual league meeting in Phoenix, he told the ESPN, well,

449
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,439
Speaker 1: I've been in that position before. I just vote with

450
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 1: my conscience and how I see it. I'm not trying

451
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 1: to be offensive understated if someone else doesn't want to

452
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: go my way. He added. When they put it in,

453
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: they were smart enough to restrict it more than it

454
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: is today, and it was supposed to be used only

455
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: when the play had a big impact on the game.

456
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 1: Otherwise you weren't supposed to use it while it evolved

457
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 1: over time, and now they use it in all kinds

458
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,440
Speaker 1: of situations. I don't think that's good for the game.

459
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 1: It is the fact that there's going to be officiating era,

460
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: but it's also the fact that instant replay doesn't always

461
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 1: correct it. It actually compounds the problem. On occasion. West,

462
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 1: you have a tortured relationship with the Cincinnati Bengals, you

463
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: probably won't classify it that way. You'd say it was

464
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 1: a difficult or a uh, you know, an ill fated relationship.

465
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: I'd say you and the Bengals not always on the

466
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,640
Speaker 1: same page. But in this situation, it's like the woman

467
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: who tried to engage yourself to you, similar sense, similar

468
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: sit I can't remember agreeing on Mike Brown in many things,

469
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: but agreement and these are the two biggest problems that

470
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 1: I know. Young listeners might find this hard to believe,

471
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 1: but believe me, I was around when they instituted instant replays.

472
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: Is all old guys. It was expressly put in for

473
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 1: particularly egregious, big impact calls. It has evolved over time

474
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: where you have to save coaches from themselves. Who's watching

475
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,880
Speaker 1: out for the game. The competition committee has to watch

476
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 1: out for the game. Coaches are protecting their control over

477
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: the game. They're winning edge. It's no coincidence that two

478
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 1: of the greatest coaches in NFL history, Bill Walsh and

479
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 1: Don shul they have the word edge in their memoirs

480
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 1: because they're looking for any percentage point that can give

481
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: them a small favor. That's how you win in the NFL,

482
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 1: and getting calls in their favor is one edge of

483
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: these control freaks and a calm control freaks, not in

484
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 1: a negative way. When you invest that much time, you

485
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: want your fingerprints all over the game. You have to

486
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: save replay from the coaches. But that's on the officiating

487
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 1: in the in the league office to stop overturning calls

488
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 1: unless they're obvious. If they them to take a challenge

489
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: away from the coaches, misused it. Since the rule winning

490
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 1: to exist, they consistently and I think they did a

491
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 1: better job this towards the end of last year. If

492
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 1: they consistently just didn't overturn calls unless it's obvious, as

493
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,880
Speaker 1: the rule intends, I think you would have you would

494
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: have a better situation. Well that is a hypothesis. Finally,

495
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 1: in the news, UH, the Alliance of American Football the

496
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: a F, which is was launched the week after the

497
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: Super Bowl to a decent level of fanfare. Uh. We

498
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: had some fun with that fact, but the bottom line

499
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: is that the NFL was behind it on some level. Um,

500
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,199
Speaker 1: maybe not enough is what's coming from people connected to

501
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: the league. The games have aired on our network, but Uh.

502
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: The a F chairman told the USA Sports USA Today

503
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 1: Sports in a recent interview that the NFL p A

504
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,199
Speaker 1: is not cooperating with a F because they're refusing to

505
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: allow the first year league to use young NFL players. Um.

506
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: Tom Dundon is his name. He actually um aided the

507
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: a F earlier in the season by making a two

508
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: fifty million dollar investment in the league when they were

509
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 1: having some early payroll issues. And it's just incredible, incredible

510
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: to me, guys that, first of all done in this

511
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: guy's a billionaire owns the Carolina Hurricanes NHL franchise. I

512
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: don't care who you are. A quarter of a billion

513
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:16,120
Speaker 1: dollar investment is a big deal. Um. But I'm surprised

514
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 1: this year. There are eight games into a season essentially,

515
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: and there's talk that this thing could be the plug,

516
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 1: could be pulled as soon as after this weekend's games.

517
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 1: And the reason why is because I guess the a

518
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: F thought the NFL was going to give them more

519
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 1: support beyond just some television coverage, that they would actually

520
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: be a true pipeline, which is a great idea in theory.

521
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 1: But you understand why the NFL is like, WHOA, we

522
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,360
Speaker 1: can't do that. This is professional football injuries and there's

523
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 1: a collective bargaining agreement involved here. It's not that easy

524
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: to do that. We can't help you like that at

525
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: this point. Meanwhile, the a F is saying that it

526
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: is drowning essentially. Uh, this could be a quick, ugly death.

527
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,919
Speaker 1: It sounds like a threat from Dundon that isn't to

528
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: be taken too seriously, you know. He it's it's really

529
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: a fight between him and the NFL Players Union. I

530
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 1: think the NFL does want it to be a developmental league.

531
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: They've said as much, and they would like players on

532
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: futures contracts to be available to the a F the

533
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 1: The problem is the union has not agreed to that. Um.

534
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 1: There's a battle back and forth, and he said, and

535
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 1: Dundon seems like he's so frustrated and he's the chairman

536
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: that he says, if they're not going to give us

537
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: their young players, we have to look at all of

538
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 1: our options, one of which is discontinuing the league. He

539
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: knows the NFL doesn't want that to happen, so he's

540
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 1: trying to push, you know, the nfl PA to negotiate.

541
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 1: It's a little in the in the weeds here. I

542
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: don't have a bluff, you know, he said, one of

543
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:47,640
Speaker 1: which is potentially discontinuing, uh, the league, because I think

544
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: the NFL really wants it. And by the way, it's

545
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:55,199
Speaker 1: been doing like huge numbers, relatively huge relative relative to

546
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: what's on NFL network normally and relative to other sports,

547
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 1: I mean relative to like a pete G A a

548
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 1: regular kind of p G a weekend, or a Grand

549
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 1: Slam tennis quarterfinal like it's been doing pretty there's a

550
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,119
Speaker 1: reason why they're showing those on NFL network instead of

551
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: old NFL games. People are watching it the in baseball

552
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: as an example, like the Arizona Fall League or something.

553
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: It's not a natural parallel, but you can have players.

554
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: If you're a fan of let's say I'm a fan

555
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 1: of the Jets, I want to see a young prospect

556
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: um if it's in that league, I would be interested

557
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: in that. But there's just I understand why that probably

558
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: is never gonna happen because the p A is that's

559
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: just too much of a risk. The sports too dangerous

560
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: in that sense to to risk bodily harm and ruining

561
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 1: a prospect uh in someone on someone else's team. Essentially,

562
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: it feels like a purgatory because the NFL, like to me,

563
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 1: has been doing them a solid with all the attention

564
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: they've been giving them. But if you're not like in

565
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 1: bed with them like the NBA has been with the

566
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: w n b A and the G league, like, those

567
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 1: are entities of the n B A. But the is

568
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: the A, A F and somewhere in between. I mean,

569
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: the NFL is clearly throwing it behind the A F

570
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: in relation to the XFL, which I think it wants

571
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: to fail. I mean, I'm just like reading the tea

572
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 1: leaves there. But you're right, and I think that's what

573
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: the AFS trying to do is make it a little

574
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: more for him. All right, that's what's happening in the news.

575
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: All right. You know, it's crazy how time flies. This

576
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: is the fifth season of the Graybeards um uh fake

577
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 1: football franchise. It started here in Los Angeles, and then

578
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: when the Chargers were ripped away from San Diego, we

579
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 1: moved the Graybeards south, UM and down the old five.

580
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,479
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what, what are the gray Beards.

581
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: We look at what's going on. We're three and a

582
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: half weeks out from the league year, and we see

583
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 1: players without jobs, players that deserve jobs, players that can

584
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 1: help teams um in nine and many of these guys,

585
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 1: the majority of the players on the roster will help

586
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 1: teams in nineteen. UM. So I want to start with

587
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: a plea Greg to um Sometimes I don't want it

588
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: to be lost. I don't want this isn't flipping. I

589
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: want all these players to get jobs. You do, so

590
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 1: you look at yourself as kind of a gateway to

591
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: the NFL. You're like in your own developmental league in

592
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: a way. Yes, and I have the platform at NFL

593
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: dot com. Uh if if if if one general manager

594
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,479
Speaker 1: happens to read the Graybeards article which really smart decision

595
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: NFL dot Com slash Hansas and sees a player that's like,

596
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 1: oh wait a second, maybe I should check in on

597
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: this guy again, then the Graybeards have done their job.

598
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: So we are a feeder system in a way. You

599
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 1: could look at it a different way, which is that

600
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: if it took reading about a free agency, uh free

601
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: agent available on the gray Birds to know that he

602
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: was out there that the general managers inspired, it's a

603
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 1: bad sign for that team. But before we go go

604
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 1: way same way. I don't want to before we go

605
00:30:56,600 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: through the roster um to just send that message a

606
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: positive message. Put together a little bit of a musical number,

607
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: because music is the universal language. That's true. Um said

608
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 1: that was sex, Now that I thought it was esperanto.

609
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 1: Um Ricky hit it this is the bill, gray Beard.

610
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: Give him a chance, give him the shot to prove

611
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 1: them wrong. Gray Beard. The mind is sound, the body

612
00:31:54,760 --> 00:32:00,080
Speaker 1: is tight, the soul he is a evil gray He

613
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 1: Give him a chance, make him feel who bring him

614
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: inside you all? Gray Gray Gray, Gray Beard Gray. I

615
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: gotta tell you that was better than some of the

616
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 1: stuff I've seen in halftime shows. You know what. I

617
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: was getting a little bit of a Jackson main vibe,

618
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: you know, like the first the first kind of like

619
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: rock song that they play that's just like a Jackson

620
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: Vane banger. Yeah, I like that, Thanks man, all right,

621
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 1: put that out of the way, and I feel like

622
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: I've been a nickel back maybe thrown in there. Yeah,

623
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 1: that's a little it's got a nickel back vibe, I

624
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 1: could say. But there's some electronic elements in there. We're

625
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: not We're not just when the drums start picking up

626
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: the beat. I mean, let's what's out, all right, ladies.

627
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: It was like the Miami vice scene with something in

628
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:09,480
Speaker 1: the air tonight, alright. That one that was a dated

629
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 1: ref But I'm with you on it. All of my

630
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 1: references are dated, and I don't care if people get

631
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: them or not. In fact, it's better for me if

632
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 1: only a few do. This is a guy I like

633
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: fact checking pop culture. Ricky, do you know what Miami Vices? Yeah?

634
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 1: It's a movie. No TV show. Well but Jamie Fox

635
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: and Colin Farrell. Yeah, please tell me you know it

636
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 1: was based on the TV show. Yeah? Oh she didn't,

637
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: she didn't. All right, here we go. Quarterback I got,

638
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: and again the same thing, you guys. You evaluate this

639
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 1: roster and don't hold back. I had had the big fish,

640
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 1: Evan Silva helped me out last year. And because he's

641
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 1: so professional, he took it overly seriously and and I

642
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: took up a lot of his time and I felt

643
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 1: bad about it, so I didn't bring him up this year.

644
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna lean harder on you guys in twenty nineteen.

645
00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: But thank you having for your help last year. All Right,

646
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: here we go. Sam Bradford thirty one years old. He's

647
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback of the Graybeards. Um he's he's thirty one.

648
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: He might be the oldest thirty one year old in

649
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 1: the world. Let's face it, he's got bad knees. But

650
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 1: and he's been in Mothballs for basically two years. But

651
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 1: he is also two seasons removed from leading the NFL

652
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:21,320
Speaker 1: and UM completion percentage that's boy. He had a twenty

653
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 1: touchdown five interception year that year with Minnesota, perfectly serviceable.

654
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:30,280
Speaker 1: Maybe above that, I bring in Brock Osweiler as a backup,

655
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 1: knowing that Sam probably isn't gonna be able to make

656
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 1: it through you know, September, and uh Josh McCown, who

657
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: will be forty years old by week one, but a

658
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,959
Speaker 1: great blue guy. Everybody loves Josh. It's tough when Josh

659
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: McCown is not even a starter on this team. He's

660
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 1: still like the coach in the locker room. It's like,

661
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 1: oh yeah, it'll be great a leader. Well for Sam Bradford,

662
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: he looked cooked last year when he played, but he's done.

663
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 1: But you know what's he's there. He's basically a coach

664
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: on the field, you know, and the practices and things

665
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 1: of that. Name. Bradford's interesting as you know, he played granted,

666
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 1: just two games the year before, but he averaged like

667
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 1: nine yards per throw in those two games, and then

668
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 1: had a good year the year before, and then he

669
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: was with this unbelievably terrible cardinal situation that like has

670
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 1: ended a lot of it felt like it was ending

671
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 1: a lot of careers and a lot of potential. But

672
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: the fact that Josh Rosen came in and actually looked

673
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: better than Sam Bradford, that was a tough spot. I

674
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 1: do like the fact that the number one oh one

675
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: guy on our top one oh one free agency list

676
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: every year he's on the gray Beards, whoever it is,

677
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 1: I mean, because that's good. He's got the good marketing

678
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 1: pop from the list. And now you put Bradford, who

679
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 1: has been there stuck at one oh one on your tickets.

680
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 1: Here's my fix for your quarterback room. Go ahead. Us

681
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,239
Speaker 1: Whaler doesn't need to be anywhere near this team or

682
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 1: any team, so I would take people or take him off.

683
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: And if you if Sam Bradford can't play, and a

684
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 1: lot of people think his knees will never allow him

685
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,920
Speaker 1: to play again on this team with who's available, I'm

686
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,479
Speaker 1: going to Josh Johnson rail doing a little door dual

687
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: threat quarterbacking. He played, I mean, he held his own

688
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: with the Redskins at the end of the year. He's

689
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 1: from San Diego to and local legend San Diego like that.

690
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,400
Speaker 1: On this team, you're gonna need a running quarterback The

691
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:08,439
Speaker 1: problem is, though, that you with that line like, yeah,

692
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 1: you want name value, local guy this and that, Like

693
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,839
Speaker 1: how about you take a chance on a guy who

694
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,839
Speaker 1: can lead you to a mythical championship. And there's only

695
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,399
Speaker 1: one guy out there that could do that, and that's

696
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 1: Gino Smith. He was already in San Diego last year.

697
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 1: He knows where the locker rooms are, he knows where

698
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 1: the local taco places are. So you don't have to

699
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 1: help Gino with that. I mean, he was in l

700
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 1: A last year. Whatever, that's why we're in San Diego,

701
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,839
Speaker 1: nex whatever. He I don't know, Gino Smith. Gino's phone

702
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 1: didn't ring. He was expecting a gray Beard's called. I

703
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: never can give him a chance, give him a chance.

704
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on to the running back room. Um,

705
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:46,359
Speaker 1: all right, Marshawn Lynch. The raiders close the door, Well,

706
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 1: we open a window. And and what's very important, extremely important,

707
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,959
Speaker 1: almost confusingly important in our organization is having a really

708
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: good media guide cover. And that's why, not the only reason,

709
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: but Marshall Inch, you put him in the room. He's

710
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 1: thirty three years old by week one, but you know

711
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:05,799
Speaker 1: that he's not going to be able to carry the

712
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,440
Speaker 1: load you. You want him to be a guy, you know,

713
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 1: a little thumper between the tackles. Maybe you can carry

714
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,439
Speaker 1: you for a half or something to keep him healthy.

715
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: Hope he doesn't quit the team. But you gotta have

716
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 1: a real potential bell cow guy. That's why J G.

717
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,439
Speaker 1: I is joining us twenty six years old by week one. Uh.

718
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 1: He has the international appeal as being a guy from England.

719
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 1: So we're gonna get that hook. And um, you know

720
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 1: he's had his moments and he's still a young guy. C. J.

721
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,720
Speaker 1: Anderson's out there too, so we're gonna have a running

722
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,280
Speaker 1: back by committee. Obviously here showed he had some tread

723
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: on the tires in l A. Uh. And what are

724
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: we missing a guy who can catch the ball out

725
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:44,240
Speaker 1: of the backfield. Uh, we're gonna chew a fullback instead.

726
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 1: We're gonna bring on t J yelled in twenty five

727
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 1: years old ability to catch the ball in the backfield.

728
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 1: Your thoughts on my running backs? I am severely crestfallen

729
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,800
Speaker 1: disappointed that you do not have Darren Sprowls in your backfield.

730
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 1: Thought about it. It makes you wonder, what is the

731
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: gray beer it's here? Couldn't Greg go grow gray hair

732
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 1: if he wants, if he tried to, right, that's the

733
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 1: that's like, what is the idea behind the gray beards.

734
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 1: I always thought it was kind of a guy. You know,

735
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,799
Speaker 1: guys towards the end of their career. Yelden is going

736
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: to be on a team, on an NFL team, I think, so, yeah,

737
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 1: he'll be he'll be a part time I know. But

738
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: he's you were so cut throat, and he's young, is

739
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 1: only twenty six, he's coming off an injury, so he's

740
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: gonna be on a team, on an NFL team, So

741
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: he's just stopping by the gray beards. I think Sprowls

742
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: is a guy you combined with Marshawn Lynch. To me,

743
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 1: that's like a picture perfect gray beards backfield. Now I

744
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,840
Speaker 1: get why you're saying that the graybeards. We have another

745
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: San Diego guy by the way, Wow, he was Well,

746
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: maybe I've made a mistake there, But um, it's not

747
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 1: just about being old. The exercise is just covering who's

748
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 1: out there. But it just so happens that a lot

749
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 1: of these guys end up being close to the wrong

750
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 1: side of thirty, which is tells you a lot about

751
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:53,799
Speaker 1: how hard I totally made that up, by the way.

752
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 1: He just but he had his best years when I

753
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:58,799
Speaker 1: was checking them, like, is that right? He had his

754
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:00,400
Speaker 1: best year? You know, I had some gray ears with

755
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 1: the Chargers, and that fan base who needs uh some

756
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 1: hope and some some love and some memory of that

757
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 1: you know, would be rooting him on. There's no reverse

758
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 1: gears in this tank. We move forward with the city itself.

759
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: You know, wide receiver alright, a little bit of a

760
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: problem with wide receiver and and this is this pops

761
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:18,799
Speaker 1: up every year at the Gray Beards. It's it's a

762
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 1: position scarcity for real teams. Our team has left to

763
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: pick up the guys that can't really move too well anymore. UM.

764
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: So they have a nice name brand, but maybe you

765
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 1: worry about separation and you absolutely have an issue with

766
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,839
Speaker 1: UM taking the top off defenses. But what we got

767
00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:38,919
Speaker 1: here is des Brian as Brian is thirty years old,

768
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 1: hasn't played in a long time now and is coming

769
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: off an Achilles tear. But again, that media guy is

770
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: very important, so we're gonna slap him on there team

771
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: and the just the season tickets. You gotta have eight guys,

772
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 1: you guys, and from the national you want coverage from

773
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 1: national outlets. Every team does dez is comeback attempt? Well,

774
00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:01,280
Speaker 1: you find it here in San Diego. Michael Crabs Um,

775
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 1: he fell into the Lamar Jackson abyss last year. Um,

776
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 1: but before that he was a virtual lock for over

777
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 1: a five year stretch for you know, eight or nine

778
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,440
Speaker 1: touchdowns a year. I know, like does he doesn't get

779
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,240
Speaker 1: separation anymore, but they're worse red zone targets. Pierre Garcon

780
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:17,840
Speaker 1: thirty three years old. I don't know what he has

781
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:19,720
Speaker 1: left in the tank. Maybe we'll slide him into the slot,

782
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:21,840
Speaker 1: see if you can do some damage in there. And

783
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 1: then Kelvin Benjamin just a giant. Just good to have

784
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 1: a giant. And uh, he's twenty eight and everyone else

785
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 1: has given up on him. But that's part of the

786
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 1: Graybeards aesthetic is giving people one last chance. So Kelvin,

787
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: welcome to board. Look how far to Marius Thomas has

788
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 1: fallen the Gray Beards. We were negotiations but it just

789
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 1: didn't work out. Well. He's also coming off in achilles

790
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 1: tear and a UH arrest issue. I think yeah. We also, yeah,

791
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 1: there was a car issue. We also we we talked

792
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: about it internally and having two over thirty wide receivers

793
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 1: rehabbing achilles tendon tears seemed a little bit of a

794
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,320
Speaker 1: bridge too far. I think a cover of your media,

795
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: you know, right, I think you wanna, you know, think

796
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 1: about Chris Hogan just because, uh, just because maybe not

797
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,480
Speaker 1: a lot of production, but he brings kind of that

798
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 1: Patriots championship. You know, he teaches the guy what it's

799
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 1: like to be uh the middle of a champe threat

800
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:21,359
Speaker 1: for you, Terrell Prior, I mean a little bit of

801
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 1: a poison. Maybe. Well we haven't been able to find

802
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: out exactly what it is he's bringing or taking away

803
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 1: from locker room. You're gonna need someone to replace Crabtree

804
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 1: when the Patriots signed him to be there, Like you know,

805
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,799
Speaker 1: seventh guy in in training camp just feels ava at

806
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 1: this point. Once a gray beard, always a gray beard.

807
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 1: It just stays where it is if they're not on

808
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 1: a team. On March twenty nine, we get him, all right,

809
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,879
Speaker 1: But but you guys kind are on the same page

810
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 1: as me, like we're gonna have an issue stretching the field.

811
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 1: It's an anal, But I do I think Dad is

812
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 1: a great move because you know, most if he was

813
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 1: signed by most teams. It's like, all right, Dez, you know,

814
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: calm down with the social media a little bit. Let's

815
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,920
Speaker 1: just like focus on not the gray beards here, like

816
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,799
Speaker 1: fly off the handle, take shots at the Cowboys, do

817
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: it tight end? Uh? Alright? So Antonio Gates was on

818
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 1: the team last year. He's on the team again, even

819
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 1: though he's gonna be thirty nine years old by week one.

820
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,280
Speaker 1: Like me, he's a nineteen eighty baby, and we stick together.

821
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,240
Speaker 1: So Gates is back. I'm gonna put Austin Safarian Jenkins

822
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 1: in my starting role though. Um I saw a little

823
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: bit that I liked in his year with the Jets.

824
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: I know last year in Tampa he kind of just disappeared.

825
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 1: But Tampa Jacksonville, excuse me, but Jacksonville was just it

826
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 1: was a bad year in Jacksonville all around. So um,

827
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna bank on that a s J has something

828
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: in the in the tank and there's not trust me.

829
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 1: There aren't a lot of other options. The pickings are slim.

830
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 1: One guy I might take a look at is a

831
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 1: former second round pick, Max Williams of the Ravens. The

832
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 1: two exes, Max Williams double X. I don't throw up

833
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: the double X injury like that. Yeah, injuries have really

834
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 1: hurt him, but you know, just for an upside point

835
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:02,360
Speaker 1: of view, maybe you could turn his career around. I

836
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 1: think the combination of Gates and um, Michael Human Awa

837
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 1: Nui would be like really exciting. You got the you

838
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 1: got the pass catcher, you've got the blocker, you bring

839
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 1: in the kind of Tonio Gates. I mean, he's a legend,

840
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 1: he's huger than he's bigger than whom on at this

841
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 1: he's a Hall of Famer. And then yeah, Human, you know,

842
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 1: maybe brings in kind of you know, you want to

843
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 1: as much diversity as possible in terms of their background,

844
00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:29,319
Speaker 1: so you know, maybe get some Islanders coming to the game.

845
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 1: And I like him on We'll take people from all

846
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 1: over the world. I'm trying to look at us so far.

847
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:36,880
Speaker 1: I don't think Marshall Lynch is a Hall of Famer?

848
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 1: Is he He's board actually an interesting case borderline, he was.

849
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,840
Speaker 1: He was a crucial to a team that was I think, honest,

850
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 1: I think he's got an uphill battle. But I would

851
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:47,879
Speaker 1: listen to an argument for him. But Gates certainly will

852
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,239
Speaker 1: go to canton Um. So he's the only short Hall

853
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 1: of Fame guy, we got. UM offensive line always a

854
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 1: tough exercise because UM teams struggle to put together half

855
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,440
Speaker 1: a good offensive line and these cities, so we're taking

856
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,359
Speaker 1: what's left. Uh. Donald Penn just got cut loose by

857
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: the Raiders. He has three Pro Bowl bids and most

858
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:11,240
Speaker 1: recently in two seventeen, so he was functional. John Sullivan

859
00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 1: just played in a Super Bowl. So that's that's not nothing.

860
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:20,720
Speaker 1: Um the rest Jeremy parnell Um, Quentin Spain, Josh Sitton.

861
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: I mean it's a bit of a roll of the dice.

862
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 1: With Sam Bradford behind center. I think you have better

863
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,960
Speaker 1: tackles than some NFL teams. It's not the worst offensive line.

864
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 1: You're right, that would not be. That would not be

865
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 1: the worst offensive line in the league. Every other position group,

866
00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:38,879
Speaker 1: I think it would. I wor right. I think it's

867
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 1: the average age of about thirty two or thirty three

868
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 1: years might struggle in the wrong pen. I like Penn though,

869
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:47,200
Speaker 1: because you need a guy who does like, hey, we've

870
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,880
Speaker 1: got like the digital like a seven minute video that

871
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,760
Speaker 1: we need a player to kind of do a breakdown. UM.

872
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,759
Speaker 1: Some digital videos go on the local programming to kind

873
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:58,920
Speaker 1: of like promote the thing, and I think he's got

874
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 1: that next career in the media and he can do

875
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 1: that as well. Good call, Good call, Um, it's Jeremy Parnell,

876
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:10,920
Speaker 1: I said, Jeremy. Well yeah, I think it's but it's

877
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 1: just spelled. Um. Let's move to the defense now. I

878
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:19,600
Speaker 1: like this same thing happened last year, and I remember

879
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,319
Speaker 1: the big Fish UH had a similar thought that the

880
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: offense was shaky, but the defenses saw there's some good

881
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 1: players here on the edge. Ziggy Anza rap sheet UM

882
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 1: put it out there that he has a shoulder issue

883
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: that teams are worried about. But this is still a dude.

884
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,399
Speaker 1: Twelve sacks two seasons ago fourteen and a half back

885
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 1: in two thousand fifteen. It's twenty nine years old or

886
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,840
Speaker 1: thirty years old. Week one. I'll roll the dice, and

887
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:44,839
Speaker 1: I'm a little surprised no one else has to this point.

888
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 1: Maybe the shoulders totally jacked, but we we did that.

889
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 1: Nick Perry, another guy that has some history, UH is

890
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:55,399
Speaker 1: double digit sack season has fallen off in recent times,

891
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,960
Speaker 1: but you know, we we take a flyer Adrian Clayborne,

892
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:02,360
Speaker 1: bring him on. UM. He graded that well on PFF

893
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 1: this season. Played in two of the last three Super Bowls,

894
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 1: and um, why Mark Brady the shadow league figure, why

895
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 1: would he be calling me in the middle of an

896
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:15,879
Speaker 1: Around the NFL podcast shadoway behavior? And finally Shane Ray, uh,

897
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 1: twenty six years old, a total lway draft bus that

898
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 1: looks like but we take a flyer on him and

899
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:22,360
Speaker 1: see if we can get anything out of him. What

900
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,040
Speaker 1: do you think? Was two guys I like who are

901
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: not on the on this list. Aaron Lynch is one

902
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: of my favorite free agents left on the board. I

903
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 1: thought he showed really well um as a rotational rusher

904
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: for the Bears last year. And I would take a

905
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:39,600
Speaker 1: chance on Derek Morgan over maybe Shane Ray or Adrian Clayborne.

906
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,719
Speaker 1: He's coming off like he had a terrible year last year,

907
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:44,360
Speaker 1: but the year before that, I believe he had nine

908
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 1: sacks and um, just now turning twenty nine, I believe,

909
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 1: so still got maybe something left in the tank. Yeah,

910
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 1: I think you do a nice job kind of you know,

911
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:57,399
Speaker 1: having a variety of red flags from from these guys,

912
00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 1: whether if you know, it could be like like a

913
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,759
Speaker 1: ziggy answer doesn't just have one injury. He's got like

914
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 1: seven different surgeries over the last couple of he's also secret.

915
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:07,600
Speaker 1: It's like Shane Ray. Actually he's young and healthy, had

916
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 1: some talent, but kind of not known as you know,

917
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 1: the best um behind the scenes guy necessarily or you know,

918
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 1: it hasn't really I don't know, hasn't really uh fulfilled

919
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 1: this potential. I don't know if he's taking his career

920
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 1: as seriously as you want. Claiborne though, like Adrian Claiborn, alright,

921
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,319
Speaker 1: good interior defensive line. And here is the third and

922
00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 1: final man on the cover of the media. Guy that's

923
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:31,840
Speaker 1: Dominican Sue. I mean, the man is photogenic and everyone

924
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:35,399
Speaker 1: knows Sue getting up there in years. But he's got something.

925
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 1: He's still got the motor a little bit. Maybe he's

926
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:39,279
Speaker 1: not the same player was in Detroit, but he will

927
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 1: be a presence on our line. Corey Legit another guy. Listen,

928
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 1: he's got a quad surgery's recovering from. So you have

929
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,680
Speaker 1: that red flag. But this guy and he was on

930
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 1: I believe, on your top one on one boys an

931
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:54,839
Speaker 1: eight year starter, fairly high. Moe Wilkerson. This is a

932
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 1: tough one for me because I don't like MOHAMMEDD. Wilkerson

933
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:01,839
Speaker 1: in terms of as a man. No, the way things

934
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 1: ended with the Jets, I think he basically stole um

935
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,359
Speaker 1: my favorite team's money and stopped working hard. But he's

936
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,279
Speaker 1: also at this stage in his career twenty nine and

937
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,520
Speaker 1: coming off a serious leg injury in Green Bay, a

938
00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:14,239
Speaker 1: lot to prove, and probably looking for one last pay day.

939
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 1: Brent Urban not really familiar with his work, but he

940
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 1: was on your top one on one, so he got

941
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,880
Speaker 1: the final spot. I'm a little surprise he's still available.

942
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 1: There's some good picks here. Um you might need, like

943
00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 1: a hog Molly, like a huge run stuffer guy like

944
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 1: Danny Shelton. Um for Demota Peco, who's you know, gonna

945
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:35,960
Speaker 1: be about thirty four years old. I'm sure has the

946
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 1: gray beard. So just a beef, beefy guy to take

947
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:41,239
Speaker 1: off a couple of lineman a poor man snap. I

948
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:44,800
Speaker 1: like Dan immediately took some notes wrote that down beef

949
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 1: in the middle of their situational. All right, great, you

950
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 1: know there is a case to me made that I

951
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 1: talked to you guys about this before I write the piece.

952
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:55,359
Speaker 1: But I like him. You did a good job. Linebacker

953
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,000
Speaker 1: Zach Brown another guy. He's sitting at number twenty nine

954
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: on the Westling and Rosenthal Top one had him in

955
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:04,759
Speaker 1: the top twelve. He was mad at me. I like

956
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,120
Speaker 1: put him at forty seven and it bounced out to that.

957
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:08,800
Speaker 1: And now he's the captain of the defense of the

958
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,560
Speaker 1: gray Beard, so that I felt it felt like a

959
00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 1: major steel. Not sure if he's captain material, but we

960
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 1: take chances opportunities other teams win. It's that a terrible defense.

961
00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:24,320
Speaker 1: Him and Sue and Jamie Collins. I don't know what

962
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:25,719
Speaker 1: to do with Jamie Collins. I don't know where he

963
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,839
Speaker 1: would fit in. I don't know what the defensive scheme is,

964
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: but I know he's a guy that has tools and flexible.

965
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:34,319
Speaker 1: I think he can play in multiple schemes. This is

966
00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:36,759
Speaker 1: gonna be one of those defenses, and asked answers the

967
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 1: question what would happen to a defense if everybody was

968
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 1: just doing their own thing instead of like like Collins

969
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 1: and uh and Brown are just freelancing all over their

970
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 1: freelance and they're just trying to get tackles. Sue is

971
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,000
Speaker 1: just like going for sas, not trying to stop the run.

972
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 1: So like you have a lot of big players and highlights,

973
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 1: like you don't get a lot of stole a lot

974
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 1: of turnovers. That sounds like it probably wouldn't worked, but

975
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:00,799
Speaker 1: no one's ever tried it right, it's innovative. I got

976
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:04,240
Speaker 1: Matteo in there too, sure Tackler, he's got a good background.

977
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:08,840
Speaker 1: So another big thing an organization is that he Um.

978
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,720
Speaker 1: We're very big on giving the beat writers some layups

979
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 1: for their notebook leads during training policy. So we got

980
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:18,040
Speaker 1: we got Teo in there, we got we got writer

981
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 1: for the Cools actually retweeted your column and said, this

982
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 1: is a gift for beat writers. You have already told

983
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:26,360
Speaker 1: you've already written the stories for us. I would be

984
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:29,080
Speaker 1: happy to follow this team. There you go George Breemer,

985
00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 1: who covers the great Well, I'm very big on that.

986
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 1: Another Hawaii guy, another guy who played in San Diego.

987
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 1: So I think it's all coming together. You see, you're

988
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 1: you're picking up on our business model. UM cornerback or

989
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,319
Speaker 1: you know, the secondary. It's tricky. It's it's same thing

990
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: where you worry about speed and age more. But Mo Claiborne,

991
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,880
Speaker 1: who I think is a rock solid number two type cornerback.

992
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 1: Um that I'm a little surprised that Jets aren't bringing

993
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,480
Speaker 1: back yet or haven't or won't, but he is out there.

994
00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 1: He'll be our number one cornerback. So good luck to you,

995
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 1: um Mo Grimes. This is clearly you know. I don't

996
00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:04,400
Speaker 1: want Miko to come after me if I left her.

997
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:08,439
Speaker 1: Left the boy off the Uh off the office list.

998
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 1: So he's on the team. Even though he's thirty six

999
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 1: at the stage, he's the oldest. Um Graybeard had some

1000
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:16,839
Speaker 1: gray in his beard played. He's still out there like

1001
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:20,440
Speaker 1: playing sixties seventy snaps the game and not not doing poorly.

1002
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:24,880
Speaker 1: Captain Munterlin and Tremaine Brock around out my cornerback group.

1003
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:28,279
Speaker 1: It's rough out there for cornerbacks. I do like Claiborne,

1004
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 1: who was better than some teams first cornerback Troupe Um

1005
00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,280
Speaker 1: at safety Eric Berry, Come on, come onto the gray Beards,

1006
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,680
Speaker 1: perfect gray Beard. Um a leader in the locker room. Yep.

1007
00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:41,840
Speaker 1: We love another easy notebook lead. We love guys that

1008
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,919
Speaker 1: are on the comeback trail. Uh and Glover Quinn. He's

1009
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 1: contemplating retirement out in Detroit, but I thought maybe we

1010
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:50,800
Speaker 1: could bring him back for one more ride. A veteran

1011
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 1: in the locker room and a guy that knows how

1012
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:56,319
Speaker 1: to play the position. Mike Adams is another guy, thirty nine,

1013
00:51:56,360 --> 00:52:01,040
Speaker 1: definitely gray hair, gray beard. Um, Trey Boston might be

1014
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 1: the best safety out there. You know what. Jennario Gennaro Police,

1015
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:07,960
Speaker 1: who does a great job um editing our stuff uh

1016
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 1: here at NFL dot com, was stumping for Trey Boston

1017
00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:13,560
Speaker 1: and I dismissed it. Mike Mitchell who played for the

1018
00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:15,520
Speaker 1: Colts last year and I believe one defensive Player of

1019
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:18,399
Speaker 1: the Week one week and had to dynamite games for them,

1020
00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:20,359
Speaker 1: but then ended up on the injured list as thirty

1021
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,480
Speaker 1: three year old safeties. Yeah, he's kind of known for

1022
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,440
Speaker 1: some dirty hits and whatnot. I think that might be

1023
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:28,839
Speaker 1: more attractive to the graybeards than most NFL teams. Yeah,

1024
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:32,160
Speaker 1: that's true. Kicker. The Coowski brothers were gonna call him.

1025
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:33,840
Speaker 1: It was SeaBASS is coming back West. And you know

1026
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:37,400
Speaker 1: why he's coming back because that man, for all that

1027
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 1: he's done for the kicking game, after eighteen plus seasons

1028
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,480
Speaker 1: in the NFL, we cannot let him go out with

1029
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 1: the shame of the divisional playoff round in Dallas. He

1030
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:53,560
Speaker 1: yanking a hamstring, popping a hammy like some uncle in

1031
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:56,359
Speaker 1: a family or union flag football game. And lipping off

1032
00:52:56,360 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 1: the field into retirement, no come back rehab. That he

1033
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:03,319
Speaker 1: personified what the gray beards are all about. That's right.

1034
00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 1: Bad special teams. I mean I did, and I'm gonna

1035
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:07,839
Speaker 1: be worried. Do you look at this team. You don't

1036
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:09,920
Speaker 1: see a lot of gunners. You know you're gonna be

1037
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 1: a little worried about the kickoff coverage. And then if

1038
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:13,960
Speaker 1: you're if you're counting on Sea Bass to make a

1039
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:16,120
Speaker 1: tackle on that kickoff, he's just gonna run straight to

1040
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:19,000
Speaker 1: the straight to the I didn't fill out the entire roster,

1041
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 1: so they're just imagine the gunners are all great athletic

1042
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:23,799
Speaker 1: spect You can get a gunner off the waiver wire

1043
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 1: any week of the season. Um So Sea Bass is

1044
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,120
Speaker 1: actually my starter. People are gonna say, oh about Kaskowsky.

1045
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:31,759
Speaker 1: He's done really nice work. He has forty five Super

1046
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 1: Bowl rings. But that's a that that's a kicker and decline.

1047
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 1: I want Sea Bass starting. And by the way, as

1048
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,480
Speaker 1: opposed to Sea Bass and and yes, I know what

1049
00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:45,760
Speaker 1: you're saying out there, where's Kai four bath? Well, guys, guy,

1050
00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 1: we'll leave it at that. Finally, puncher Brian Anger, nice work,

1051
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 1: Brian got a job with the Gray Beards. His name

1052
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 1: is Anger. That's it. That's that's That'll do it for you. Now,

1053
00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:58,120
Speaker 1: I will ask you the question as we do every year.

1054
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,200
Speaker 1: I'll get out of the way. I have an uber

1055
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:02,879
Speaker 1: in mind. I mean, please, Guskouski has appeared in as

1056
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:05,400
Speaker 1: many Super Bowls as anyone in NFL history other than

1057
00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:10,840
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, and not because the Super Bowl every years

1058
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:14,959
Speaker 1: along for the ride, all right, I have the number

1059
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,239
Speaker 1: in mind. What I believe this team would go uh

1060
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 1: in a in a two thousand nineteen NFL season, Like

1061
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 1: if we swap them out, would say the Chargers that

1062
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,320
Speaker 1: you get the Chargers schedule instead, it's the Gray Beards.

1063
00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:30,040
Speaker 1: What their record would be? Um, curious what you guys think.

1064
00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:33,920
Speaker 1: Be honest, I'm gonna go one in fifteen. I mean

1065
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,120
Speaker 1: you just gave him no what you're a bad guy.

1066
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:39,440
Speaker 1: You gave him. You gave him the Raiders schedule. I

1067
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 1: mean the Chargers schedule, so they get to play the Raiders.

1068
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:43,400
Speaker 1: I think they can pick off Oakland at home. But

1069
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 1: I think that I think the problem is scoring. I

1070
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:49,319
Speaker 1: think that the combination of that quarterback room in the

1071
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,759
Speaker 1: offensive line, it's gonna be a lot of injuries. It's

1072
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:54,560
Speaker 1: gonna be bold, and it's gonna be a problem about that.

1073
00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:58,080
Speaker 1: A lot of times when you see um teams that

1074
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:00,359
Speaker 1: end up in a law season two and fourte three

1075
00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 1: and thirteen playing out the string, it's because their quarterback

1076
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:06,480
Speaker 1: room looks a lot like yours. Injuries happened to the quarterbacks.

1077
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:08,759
Speaker 1: Then they end up with like Matt Castle starting eight

1078
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,880
Speaker 1: games or something. So I think the number one issue

1079
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:14,279
Speaker 1: with your team is the quarterback room, and I think

1080
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 1: that limits you're ceiling to four wins. But I'm thinking

1081
00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,880
Speaker 1: three and thirteen is what this team represents. Okay. I

1082
00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 1: look at it, and I honestly see six wins, and

1083
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,239
Speaker 1: you're like a proud father and the goal is eight

1084
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:29,560
Speaker 1: and eight. We're not trying to win a Lombardi. Meaning

1085
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:35,200
Speaker 1: what that really is, you know, quietly doing, is shaming

1086
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:37,880
Speaker 1: the New York Jets and teams like that who have

1087
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,800
Speaker 1: been unable to win six games for the last three years.

1088
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 1: So you're saying that, you guys, you want to try

1089
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:45,799
Speaker 1: to like manufacture a dig on my favorite team. For notice,

1090
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:49,239
Speaker 1: I'm saying, I'm saying that you're digging on Mike mccagnan,

1091
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,200
Speaker 1: that he couldn't even put that. You could put a

1092
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 1: better team of just cast offs than he's been able

1093
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:55,440
Speaker 1: to do. The last year, we were in an important

1094
00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:57,719
Speaker 1: rebuild and we tore it down before the Dolphins, and

1095
00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:00,400
Speaker 1: everyone is like throwing up hosana is about the Dolphins

1096
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,120
Speaker 1: right now the Jets to two years ago. I didn't

1097
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:03,880
Speaker 1: here anything. I think you. I thought your point was

1098
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 1: the gray beards. Did it to you? Gray beards? They

1099
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:08,560
Speaker 1: try to compete every year we had were kind of

1100
00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:11,440
Speaker 1: like the Dolphins model before the organic fish tank. Okay,

1101
00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 1: you know, um, how about that? Though nobody nobody's throwing

1102
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:18,239
Speaker 1: bouquets at the Jets feet two years ago when they

1103
00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,480
Speaker 1: did the same exact thing the Dolphins are doing now. No,

1104
00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 1: In fact, I was I think they were trying to

1105
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 1: win though, weren't they They won five? I don't know.

1106
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 1: I was apoplectic that Todd Bowles was flat outlying about

1107
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:31,680
Speaker 1: the rebuilding. All right, there you go, the two thousand

1108
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:36,759
Speaker 1: nineteen San Diego gray beards, and you could get there

1109
00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:40,880
