Speaker 2: Looking forward to that. But first we.

25
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: Talked about Kellen Moore. We talked about that press conference today.

26
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: I thought he did well down there addressing the media.

27
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: Asked about a number of issues regarding the Saints right

28
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: now and why he felt like this was the right

29
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 1: opportunity for him to finally become a head coach. I say, finally,

30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: He's still young, it's not even forty, and he's a

31
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: head coach in the NFL. Gail Benson, the Saints own

32
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 1: are going to tell you why here.

33
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 3: When we began this coaching search, we were all aligned

34
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 3: on what we were looking for in an ideal candidate

35
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 3: to lead this team. We wanted a coach that was

36
00:01:53,680 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 3: exceptionally bright, creative, and most importantly, a tremendous leader. I

37
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 3: believe that is exactly what we have.

38
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 4: This is the start of an incredible, incredible place. This

39
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 4: place truly is a special place for my family, for

40
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 4: the opportunities we've had the last couple of weeks to

41
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 4: win a Super Bowl in the Caesar super Dome and

42
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 4: to now become the head football coach of the New

43
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 4: Orleans Saints. This is such an incredible place and we

44
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 4: can't wait to make it home and we truly feel honored.

45
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 4: Missus Benson, thank you so much for the wonderful welcome

46
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 4: to New Orleans for our entire family. Your leadership obviously

47
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 4: is evident very quickly, how special this place it truly is.

48
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 4: We have an exciting, exciting future for New Orleans football.

49
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 4: Our number one goal is to create an environment allows

50
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 4: every player, coach, a staff member to be their best.

51
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 4: And this is a great the greatest team sport in

52
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 4: the world for a reason because it takes everyone. It

53
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 4: takes everyone. It's truly an honor, an opportunity that not

54
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 4: many have. We know that when we when we do this,

55
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 4: when we build a brand of football that we're all appreciative.

56
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 4: It's going to be a smart, fast, and a physical

57
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 4: football team. And I know that our style that who

58
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 4: dat nation will be proud of and they will rally behind.

59
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: I said not even forty, not even close to forty

60
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: thirty six years old at the start of this upcoming season. Sorry,

61
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: Mike McDonald, you had the title of youngest NFL head

62
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: coach for just one year.

63
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 2: Kellen Moore now replaces him.

64
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport back with us, Jane Slater and Brian Baldinger

65
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: as well. Jane, you know that building well, you've covered

66
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: the Saints extensively. Your thoughts on Kellen Moore joining the

67
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: Fray and how he did on his first day officially

68
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: as Saints head coach.

69
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 5: Gentlemen, you know you're getting old when now you're older

70
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 5: than the head coaches in the league. That's when it

71
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 5: really started to hit me a couple of years ago.

72
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 5: But as young as Kellen Moore is, and by the way,

73
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 5: I had research look this up, you'd have to go

74
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 5: back to the nineteen twenties to find a head coach

75
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 5: that has had the trajectory that he has had from

76
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 5: player two coach just a ten year span. But in

77
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 5: that span he's really impressed the people he's coming contact with.

78
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 5: You know, he was in the building with the Dallas Cowboys,

79
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 5: both as a player and as a coach. And I

80
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 5: reached out to Will McClay today he's the VP of

81
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 5: player Personnel, director of scouting here in Dallas. I said,

82
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 5: what was your first impression of him as a coach,

83
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,359
Speaker 5: and he told me he was very smart, he was

84
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 5: great with detail, his understanding of both offensive concepts at

85
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 5: the NFL and the college level. I reached out to

86
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 5: Dez Bryant. Des Bryant also had him taking over the

87
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 5: offense when he was here. And remember Dez albeit was

88
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 5: a short time he was in New Orleans, and I said,

89
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 5: how is he going to fit with that culture? He said,

90
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 5: Kellen knows the game. What stands about him, He's very creative.

91
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 5: He does a great job of getting his playmakers going.

92
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 5: He's part of the NFL culture today. And when I

93
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 5: reached out to Gail Benson, the owner of the Saints,

94
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,039
Speaker 5: and I asked her, what was your impression of him,

95
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 5: she said she just loved how prepared he was, how

96
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 5: intelligent he was. He came to them with a well

97
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 5: thought out plan which was not dissimilar form what we've

98
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 5: heard about his scouting trip to Boise State when he

99
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 5: tried to come in as a player. Of course, he

100
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 5: was a quarterback there. He had a well thought out

101
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 5: playbook for that one. But I thought what stood out

102
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 5: the most from Gail was her reiterating to me her

103
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 5: desire to get him all the resources possible to help

104
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 5: him succeed. You already saw last year when she moved

105
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 5: on from Dennis Allen took the temperature of that locker

106
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 5: room to do it.

107
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 6: That she means business.

108
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 5: She wants to see a championship back in New Orleans

109
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 5: and she feels very confident they have found the guy

110
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 5: that can help them do that.

111
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,919
Speaker 7: And it's a great place to play. When you're waiting

112
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 7: at Dome, Rock's like no other place. It's special. I

113
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 7: think I feel like Keln Moore has been prepping for

114
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 7: this position.

115
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 8: Even when he played, I felt like he was a coach.

116
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 7: That's how he played as a player, whether he was

117
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 7: starting in, filling in, or whether he was backing up.

118
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 7: Always felt like he was a coach. On the fourth

119
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 7: then he watched the Super Bowl and you go. You know,

120
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 7: the touchdown throw at Avante Smith was perfectly set up

121
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 7: by the exact same play but a run in the

122
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 7: first quarter, and really Sirianni was begging, Hey, where's the shot,

123
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 7: where's the shot? And he was like patient, he wanted

124
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 7: to make sure he set that shot play up to

125
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 7: Devonte because it was really the play that really put

126
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 7: the dagger in the side of the Kansas City Chiefs.

127
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 8: And he set it up perfectly. And I guess That's just.

128
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 7: One small example of a guy that's in good play caller,

129
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 7: been around the game a long time, has worked with

130
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 7: good quarterbacks and Dak and Justin Herbert now Jalen Hurts

131
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 7: all different style of quarterbacks, and he's always adjusted his

132
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,039
Speaker 7: offense to those guys. I mean that's a good starting point,

133
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,919
Speaker 7: adjusting your offense or your team to the talent you have.

134
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 7: And I think that's what Kellen will start out doing.

135
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, they didn't even need that play to win the game,

136
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: but it's like, we set it up, we drew it up,

137
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: we designed it last week.

138
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 2: We're using this thing right here. Ian, come on in.

139
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: I need you here because Derek Carr is a big

140
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: storyline in New Orleans. Kellen Moore was asked about him today.

141
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: His quote was, Derek's a tremendous quarterback in this league.

142
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: He's a starter in this league. He's a premier player

143
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: in this league. Really excited to team up with him

144
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: and go through this process. They then followed up the

145
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,559
Speaker 1: media did say, well, does that mean he's your starting

146
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: quarterback week one?

147
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 2: And I need you.

148
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: Because he did a great job of deciphering what Travis

149
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: Kelsey was saying last week. He said, Ah, he didn't

150
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: really you think he did. He didn't really say that

151
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: he was definitely coming back next year. Kellen Moore really

152
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: didn't exactly hammer this home that Derek Carr is going

153
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: to be the starting quarterback. Your thoughts on what he

154
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: said today and what it means for Car.

155
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 6: Here my take on what Kellen Moore said.

156
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 9: It is, you know, introductory press conference, obviously a big

157
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 9: moment for him, and everyone's wondering what's he gonna say

158
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 9: on Derek Carr. Is he going to be this starting quarterback?

159
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 9: And I took it to be this and this is

160
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 9: very important.

161
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 6: We'll see, We'll see.

162
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 9: We do not know right now whether or not Derek

163
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 9: Carr is going to be the starting quarterback of the Saints,

164
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 9: mostly but not exclusively, because we don't know what his

165
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 9: salary's going to be. Are the Saint's going to leave

166
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 9: it untouched. If they leave it untouched, I'd say there's

167
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 9: a decent chance he's there. Are they going to want

168
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 9: him to take some sort of a pay cut, take

169
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 9: a little bit less you report on Super Bowl Sunday

170
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 9: that is not going to happen. Is Derek Carr going

171
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 9: to want a little bit more. I don't know if

172
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 9: the Saints would do that, So where do they fit contractually?

173
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 9: And then here's the other thing that as of this

174
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 9: very moment right now, we don't know. Spencer raleerh played

175
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 9: last year and had some moments. He's pretty talented. Obviously

176
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 9: late traffic, not a lot of experience, but he's talented.

177
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 9: Does Kellen Moore and do the Saints believe that he

178
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 9: could play play as well and then maybe improve, maybe

179
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 9: more so than Derek Carr. Obviously he was a little

180
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 9: bit later on in his career. Do they want to

181
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 9: go to Spencer rally rout or maybe bring in someone

182
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 9: else and say, you know what, we're just cutting it.

183
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 9: We're cutting it clean here, we're moving on. We're going

184
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 9: to have a new quarterback. A lot of questions still

185
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,719
Speaker 9: to answer. Money wise, they don't really get a lot

186
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 9: of salary cab out.

187
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 6: For moving on Derek Carr.

188
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 9: Moving on from Derek Carr, it would really be just

189
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 9: do they want another quarterback in there and move forward?

190
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 6: And those answers have not yet come For New Orleans.

191
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: I think if you're Derek Carr, this doesn't feel like

192
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,199
Speaker 1: the full embrace on day one. So now how does

193
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: that conversation happen going forward, And maybe the best way

194
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,319
Speaker 1: to do this might be a trade for the Saints

195
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 1: rather than releasing him.

196
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 2: He's got a no trade clause. Does he waive it?

197
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:11,719
Speaker 2: Is he willing to wear?

198
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean, this is all going to be sorted out

199
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: over the next couple of weeks here for the Saints.

200
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: Jane Baldy, thank you very much for coming back to

201
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: you later in the program.

202
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 2: Ian.

203
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,199
Speaker 1: We talked about this on Sunday, speaking of things, we

204
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: reported Aaron Rodgers not going to be back with the Jets.

205
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: Team makes it official today saying they are moving on

206
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: from Rogers, that they communicated that to him last week.

207
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: Unbridled excitement was what what he Johnson used in his

208
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: statement upon Rodgers' arrival. It just never really happened because

209
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 1: of the Achilles injury, and then this season was injury

210
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: riddle and a disappointment. Here's your tweet today regarding Aaron Rodgers.

211
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: What can happen here, because yes, he can speak to

212
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: another team, but it's not going to be official for

213
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: him to be released because it's a June one release,

214
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: as you reported. They give us the full context here,

215
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: full clarity on Rogers place.

216
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,559
Speaker 9: All right, The most important thing is that Aaron Rodgers

217
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,559
Speaker 9: free agency essentially begins right now, right when the Jets

218
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 9: put out that tweet, right when they officially announced it.

219
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 9: He's allowed to talk to teams, He's allowed to negotiate.

220
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 9: We're allowed to say Aaron Rodgers, you know, kind of

221
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 9: sort of like intends to play somewhere. He's just not

222
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 9: allowed to sign until he's officially released. So that's sort

223
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 9: of the nuts and bolt too. That's kind of a

224
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 9: new rule of the NFL's had the last several years.

225
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 9: The other question, maybe the bigger question, is where is

226
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 9: Aaron Rodgers playing in twenty twenty five. My understanding is

227
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 9: he does want to play, right, if it were up

228
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 9: to him with a perfect spot, he wants to play.

229
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 9: But that's not actually really the question, guys. Really, it's

230
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 9: like what is the perfect spot and doesn't exist?

231
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 6: Right? Because there's a lot of quarterback needing teams.

232
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 9: There's the Titans, got the Raiders, you got the Giants,

233
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 9: you got a lot of teams. I could go on

234
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 9: and on, right Cleveland Browns, does Aaron Rodgers at this

235
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 9: stage in his career want to go to a place

236
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 9: that's not like a lock to go to the playoffs?

237
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 6: Does you want to be a bridge quarterback? I have

238
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:03,439
Speaker 6: my doubts about that.

239
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 9: Is there a perfect spot where they say we're a

240
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,079
Speaker 9: team that is one quarterback away from going deep into

241
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 9: the playoffs? If you tell me that, I think he's good.

242
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 9: But as of right now, I just don't know where's

243
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 9: that spot.

244
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Baldy back with us.

245
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: I'm sorry this missed you a little bit earlier because

246
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: we need you on this one. We need you to

247
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: tell us, you know, can Rogers go somewhere and still

248
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: be productive? And if you're the Jets, what do you

249
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,239
Speaker 1: do at that spot?

250
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 6: Well?

251
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 7: I mean, first of all, I think the Jets made

252
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 7: the right move here because honestly, Aaron Rodgers is a

253
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 7: connection to a regime that's gone and they've been blown out.

254
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 7: Whether it's Joe Douglas, Robert Silod, Jeff Ulberg, they're gone.

255
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 7: Like I think they've got to go tabula rasa here

256
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 7: and just go clean slate. What the answer is at

257
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 7: that position, nobody knows, but at least you know on

258
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 7: February thirteen, you know, whether it's you know, to Rod

259
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 7: Taylor or Jordan you know, whoever, they decide to go after.

260
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 7: I mean, at least they know that it's going to

261
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 7: be a different starting quarterback than what they've tried to

262
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 7: put together over the last two years.

263
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 8: Where he can go. I mean, look, you're looking at

264
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:07,359
Speaker 8: a forty two year old quarterback.

265
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,079
Speaker 7: That was not good in crunch time last year and

266
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 7: struggled with some injuries a year ago.

267
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 8: He needs an elite offensive line.

268
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 7: He needs stability at that position, the idea that he

269
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 7: can just sort of navigate, maneuver, run, you know, find

270
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 7: an opening. Just by watching him last year, I mean,

271
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 7: he was in a hurry to get rid of the

272
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 7: football a lot, like they've got to find a place

273
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 7: if he can find a place that has a very

274
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 7: good offensive line. And really one of the reason why

275
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 7: a lot of these teams look for quarterbacks and they

276
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 7: don't have very good offensive lines. And a lot of

277
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 7: these places or incomplete and you can go right down

278
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 7: the line from the Giants Tennessee.

279
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,839
Speaker 8: You know, you just go through the list of them.

280
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 8: So I mean, I think to try to find a home.

281
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 7: If I was Aaron, I've looked real closely at who's

282
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 7: going to be protecting me.

283
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 6: That's a great point.

284
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 9: I want to look a little closer at how we

285
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 9: got here, right, because you know, I was if you

286
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 9: learned on Sunday that the Jets were moving on from

287
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 9: Aaron Rodgers today becoming official. My understanding though, is this

288
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 9: was really the product of several conversations with the Jets

289
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 9: and Rogers, and from what I'm told, there was no

290
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,719
Speaker 9: ultimatums made him. It wasn't like, and I know there

291
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 9: was a reporter it's like, well, you know, the Jets

292
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 9: don't want Aaron Rodgers to do the Pat mcavie show,

293
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 9: and if he agrees not to, then we'll bring him back.

294
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 6: It wasn't like that.

295
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 9: First of all, I don't think the Jets really care

296
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 9: that he's on the Pat mcavie show. Honestly, probably just

297
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 9: affects the PR Department, doesn't really affect anyone else.

298
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 6: It's New York. They're plenty up distractions elsewhere.

299
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 9: It was really more like, well, if you go on that,

300
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 9: could you go maybe like use a little more discretion

301
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 9: and like, you know, they can't tell him to show

302
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 9: up to OTA's, that's not allowed, but.

303
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 6: It's like, we'd like you to be around more.

304
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 9: And it really seemed like over the course of several

305
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 9: discussions Aaron Glenn, the new head coach, and Darren Mugie

306
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 9: and Aaron Rodgers all became clear this was just not

307
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 9: the direction to go. And I think by the time

308
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,040
Speaker 9: that they had Aaron Rodgers come to New Jersey, he

309
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,439
Speaker 9: didn't really talk face to face. It was clear for

310
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 9: both sides, both sides that this was not going to work.

311
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 6: So they are all moving on.

312
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 9: Certainly, you mentioned a Baldi smart decision by the Jets.

313
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 9: Will see where Aaron Rodgers lands.

314
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,839
Speaker 1: If he lands, great info there ian great analysis, Baldy.

315
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 1: It's almost like we know what we're doing here tonight.

316
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: You never know when you tune into the Insiders. Looks

317
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: like we're off to a good start.

318
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 9: The NFL Combine presented by Microsoft Copilot, where a dream

319
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 9: that starts small can get big and a name that's

320
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 9: unknown can become the future. Next is here the twenty

Speaker 9: good stuff happens.

328
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 6: Let's get right into it.

329
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 9: Bucky Brooks has presented his top five interior offensive linement

330
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 9: and a draft that is chock full of dudes on

331
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 9: offense and on defense. Up frought Tyler Booker from Alabama

332
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 9: in the top spot. Donovan Jackson Ohio State the second.

333
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 9: But you can read for yourself. You don't really need

334
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 9: me to read it for you.

335
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 6: Anyway.

336
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 9: Let's welcome back Brian Baldinger in here along with my

337
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 9: good friend Mike Aarrifola, who is laughing for somebody.

338
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 6: I don't know why you're laughing. I'm doing great. I'm

339
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 6: doing anyway, Baldy, let's get to it.

340
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 9: This is again a draft that is hugely talented, with

341
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 9: interior depth offensive line, defensive line.

342
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 6: Take me through some of the top interior offensive line.

343
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 7: Well, Lean, I thought, Bucky, you's done his homework already.

344
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 7: I mean, Tyler Booker, like I got to meet him

345
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 7: last year at the Offensive Line Masterminds in Frisco. I mean,

346
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 7: he's why, he's big and he's talented, and so I

347
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 7: mean you're going up against you know, Jayalen Carter, now

348
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 7: Chris Jones, Vita Vea. You better be able to match

349
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 7: those kind of guys inside. Tyler Booker has been doing

350
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 7: that at Alabama. He's trained and craft mag of martial

351
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 7: arts his hands or elite. Excellent prospect down to Senior Bowl.

352
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 7: I stop to look at this Gray's Abel from North

353
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 7: Dakota State. This kid played up like the piano man,

354
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 7: up and down the line right and everywhere he went.

355
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 8: He was just locking guys up in stone him.

356
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 7: Thumbs up. Guys, you get the thumbs up, you get

357
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 7: the elbows lock. They ain't getting off you. It's over right.

358
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 7: Donovan Jackson from Ohio State, you watch the playoffs. You

359
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 7: can't help but watch the running game of Ohio State.

360
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 7: Just followed Jonathan Jackson. He'll take you to the Promised Land.

361
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 7: And if you're looking for a center and you're only

362
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 7: gonna be as good as your center, I don't care

363
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 7: what your offensive line is, that's gotta be a guy.

364
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 7: So this Jared Wilson out of Georgia is a really

365
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 7: good prospect. I think there's a lot of depth tier.

366
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 7: We haven't even talked about the tackles. But if you

367
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 7: want to build the interior the way the Eagles have

368
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 7: the way Kansas City did pour a bunch of their

369
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 7: Super Bowls.

370
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 8: Look inside at some of these players.

371
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 7: I mean, I think there's gonna be a really nice

372
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 7: area to select, you know, in that first day, second

373
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 7: day where you can get day one starters.

374
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: Hearing a lot of the same stuff on the defensive

375
00:16:58,400 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: side of the ball as well.

376
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 2: Uh.

377
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: There you see Bucky's top top five there. Mason Graham

378
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: out of Michigan. The last time we had a defensive

379
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 1: lineman named Graham come out of Michigan worked out really

380
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: well for the Eagles. So yeah's looking to capitalize. Somebody

381
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 1: is on Mason Graham. There your thoughts on these defensive

382
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 1: tackles because we're here and he and our buddy TJ. Sanders,

383
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: we interviewed him at the at the Senior Bowl.

384
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 8: A lot of our guy.

385
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, now TJ, TJ is he's a real prospect now.

386
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,919
Speaker 7: But honestly, just being out there and watching all the

387
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 7: one on ones and all the drills that they did

388
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,360
Speaker 7: for you know, for two days I was there. I mean,

389
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 7: first of all, I mean NFL ready looking bodies. I mean,

390
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 7: these guys are strong, they're thick, they got some twitch

391
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 7: to them. But I mean you look at I mean,

392
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 7: the Michigan guys are the Michigan guys. I mean there's

393
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 7: no depact. But this Walter Nolan you know from Ole

394
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 7: miss Like, he's he's a good looking prospect, right, and

395
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,880
Speaker 7: they kind of come in all shapes and size. If

396
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 7: you want just a guy that's just gonna, you know,

397
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 7: walk and just take up double teams.

398
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 8: Look at Cameron Jackson, you know, from the University of Florida.

399
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 8: I mean he's six to six.

400
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 7: I don't know what he is before launch, three forty

401
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 7: five maybe three fifty five. I mean he's big. He

402
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,479
Speaker 7: takes up a lot of space. But you know, you

403
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 7: look at Derek Harmon from Oregon, he showed up. I

404
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 7: just think that if you're really aggressive in this draft,

405
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 7: the way I think teams need to be to build

406
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 7: the trenches, you might be able to find two stars,

407
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 7: you know, between the first and.

408
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 8: The second and third round.

409
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 7: I mean you might be able to get two guys

410
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 7: by the way the Eagles did two years ago when

411
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 7: they took Jalen Carter and they took Nolan Smith, and

412
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 7: now you got two bona fide stars. And they took

413
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 7: those both those guys in the first round. So I

414
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 7: think this is a deep draft. If you're trying to

415
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 7: build your trenches right now, we're gonna talk a lot

416
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 7: about these guys. We're gonna get into it. I didn't

417
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 7: even talked about a kid like Darius Alexander from Toledo.

418
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 7: I mean, I don't know, I don't know what he

419
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 7: did before this year. But you go watch that playoff

420
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 7: game against Pitt. He was everywhere and exactly what you're

421
00:18:58,400 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 7: looking for.

422
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 2: Love this.

423
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 9: You know, a team drafts like an interior defensive lineman,

424
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:03,919
Speaker 9: offensive lineman.

425
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 6: Fans don't get excited, they don't care. This is how

426
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 6: you build. We just saw it anyway, Baldy, thank you

427

Speaker 5: win your first Super Bowl, you're practicing at the Auschner facility.

469
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 5: You went through countless interviews for a head coaching position.

470
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 5: When did you know in your heart and the messaging

471
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 5: from the Saints that this was finally going to be

472
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 5: where you land for your first opportunity.

473
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 4: It definitely felt like the opportunity the more and more

474
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 4: you got to talk, just how excited I was about it,

475
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 4: getting to go through the interview process with Mickey and

476
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 4: his crew. It was a great opportunity. And obviously the

477
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,239
Speaker 4: unique aspect of it is you're in a playoff run

478
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 4: at the same time, that's where your focus is, and

479
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 4: you know fortunate that you know they had the patience

480
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 4: and willingness to let us play this thing out, and

481
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 4: you know, Monday and Tuesday sorted out and really really

482
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 4: excited about it.

483
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: I heard you at your press convent earlier today talking

484
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 1: about leaving Dallas, where you were a play but leaving

485
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: Dallas going to Los Angeles, going to Philadelphia took you

486
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: out of your comfort zone. That's what you need to

487
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: do as a coach or a player if you want

488
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 1: to improve. What do you think you took from this

489
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 1: last step? Because I've heard multiple coaches on the Eagle

490
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: staff say Nick Sirianni is the best head coach we've

491
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 1: ever been around. Which tools did you take with you

492
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 1: in your toolbox and prepare you for life as a

493
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: head coach?

494
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, First and foremost, tremendous appreciation for Nick, Howie Jeffrey,

495
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,719
Speaker 4: the tremendous leadership Philadelphia has, and I learned so much

496
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 4: from those guys. Obviously, Nick's a tremendous leader. His ability

497
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 4: to lead our group each and every week through the ups,

498
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 4: through the downs, his presence was really really specialized. Obviously

499
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 4: took a lot of lessons from him.

500
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 5: You know, Kellen, I had research go and double check this,

501
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 5: but it seemed like your extension from player to head

502
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 5: coach was relatively quick. You'd have to go all the

503
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 5: way back to the nineteen twenties to find someone that

504
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 5: went from player to head coach and the timeframe that

505
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,119
Speaker 5: you did. But a lot of people don't get to

506
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 5: hear a lot from you, Kellen. You know, I've gotten

507
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 5: to know you over the years. But for people that

508
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 5: don't know you well enough or maybe see a laid

509
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,919
Speaker 5: back demeanor from you. What do people not know about

510
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:13,400
Speaker 5: you as a head coach and the way.

511
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 4: That you lead, well, I think just you know, being

512
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 4: a head coach in the NFL football team is a

513
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 4: tremendous opportunity.

514
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 2: Uh.

515
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 4: This is the people business, this relationship business. That's what

516
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 4: makes this thing special. And so I'm so excited to

517
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,439
Speaker 4: be able to team up with all these guys on

518
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 4: this on this roster, on this coaching staff. We're going

519
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 4: to do some special things, and so I'm excited to

520
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 4: continue to building those relationships starting today.

521
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 2: The real quick you guys hear the good cop bad cop?

522
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 5: Well, I was just gonna say, you know, are you

523
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 5: the good cop or the bad cop. We're you going

524
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 5: to have somebody on staff that's going to do that

525
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 5: for you, Kellen, because you always come across as a

526
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 5: good cop to me.

527
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 4: Certainly you like being the good cop. Everyone does, but

528
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 4: we understand the roles and responsibilities associate with this. There's

529
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 4: a bad cop at times, and already achieve that.

530
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 1: You guys are well over the salary cap. The good news, though, Kellen,

531
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: is that that's nothing new for the Saints. That's kind

532
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 1: of how they operate, and they do a good job

533
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: each year of getting under enough to do business. Derek

534
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: Carr a big part of that. He's got a big

535
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 1: salary cap hit coming up. You were asked about him

536
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 1: at at your press conference, you talked about the opportunity.

537
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 2: To team up with him.

538
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: How do you view this situation with Derek Carr and

539
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 1: how does he fit what you do if he's going

540
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: to wind up being the guy.

541
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, Derek's a tremendous starting quarterback in this league. I've

542
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,239
Speaker 4: had so much respect and appreciation for him and his

543
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:34,199
Speaker 4: journey from Fresno State to the Raiders obviously now to

544
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,640
Speaker 4: New Orleans and so it's gonna be a really fun

545
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 4: process to team up and I can't wait to begin

546
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 4: those conversations, begin growing that relationship, and it'll be a

547
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:43,679
Speaker 4: great opportunity for all of us.

548
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,919
Speaker 5: You know, one thing that stood out to me is

549
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 5: you did say that you're going to call plays. Having

550
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 5: worked with Nick Sirianni, he initially started off as a

551
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 5: play caller, then moved away from it to do a

552
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 5: better job of delegating, and they've talked about how that's

553
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 5: really really helped solidify the culture there. Has he given

554
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,640
Speaker 5: you any feedback on some of the challenges of being

555
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 5: that first year head coach but also calling the plays

556
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 5: and how to better navigate that.

557
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 4: Certainly that'll be something I'll navigate as the off season

558
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 4: program begins.

559
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 8: It's an important aspect. I do want to call plays.

560
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 4: A lot of guys have had success calling football plays

561
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 4: as head coaches in this league, and so you know,

562
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,199
Speaker 4: certainly you'll lean into those relationships, those conversations, just to

563
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 4: prepare yourself for that situation.

564
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,719
Speaker 1: Last night in the program, our guy Ian Rappaport was

565
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: asking a pretty good question. He's like, I wonder if

566
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: last week, when Kellen Moore is in the facility, he's

567
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: kind of looking around like, you know.

568
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that where that is. That's cool.

569
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 1: It might change this last week when you were there

570
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 1: and you're looking around, you're thinking it might be back here,

571
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 1: and were you already starting to take a couple of.

572
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 2: Notes along the way.

573
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 4: I was definitely snooping around a little bit. Definitely loved

574
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 4: the facility. We had a great time here, so it

575
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 4: was a lot of fun.

576
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 5: I did hear Missus b and her introductory press conference

577
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,919
Speaker 5: you today that her job and her job as the

578
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,479
Speaker 5: owner of this team is to make sure that you

579
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 5: have the resources and the personnel that you need to

580
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 5: be successful. What made that look like when you look

581
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 5: at this roster and going back to some of the

582
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,479
Speaker 5: challenges that might g they're just reference as it relates

583
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 5: to the salary cap. What sort of preliminary discussions have

584
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 5: you had?

585
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,880
Speaker 4: Well, I think first and foremost, as you went through

586
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 4: this process, you quickly realize how special the leadership is here.

587
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 4: Missus Benson's incredible. Her leadership is shown each and every day.

588
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 4: To team up with Mickey Loomis, who's one of the

589
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 4: waitness general managers in NFL history, was just a perfect opportunity,

590
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 4: and we understand that what to make decisions as we

591
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 4: go through this process, like any team in the NFL does.

592
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 4: Each and every team goes through this offseason program the

593
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 4: same way. We got tremendous leaders, we got tremendous talent

594
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 4: on this team. We're excited to build this thing.

595
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 2: Each team goes through it the same way.

596
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 1: But you are getting a later start than anybody else,

597
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: which is, like you said, a good problem have because

598
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 1: it means you won the Super Bowl. But putting together

599
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 1: this coaching staff and it sounds like a couple of

600
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: guys we're waiting for you and saying, Hey, I'd like

601
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 1: to go work with Kellen more.

602
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 2: I'm gonna hold out for that opportunity.

603
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 1: How confident are you that you can get these guys

604
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: together and get this thing running off the ground here

605
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 1: as soon as possible.

606
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, we feel great about this process. Obviously fortunate to

607
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 4: be able to play all the way to the end. We'll

608
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 4: do it the right way. We'll build this thing the

609
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 4: right way from a staff perspective. We'll go through an

610
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 4: interview process and we'll build this thing just how we

611
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 4: need to.

612
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore has one more act as a member of

613
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles to ride a float up Broad Street

614
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 1: and up there to the Art Museum.

615
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 2: Just a fair warning. When you get off of the

616
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 2: riser at you.

617
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: Might start getting booed like that's how quickly they can.

618
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 2: Transition there in Philadelphia.

619
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 1: But enjoy all the cheers that you get up until

620
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 1: that point you earn them. Congratulations on the Super Bowl,

621
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 1: and congratulations on the new gig.

622
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 8: About thank you so much.

623
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 1: New today into NFL Network and the Insiders, the Jets

624
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,879
Speaker 1: make it official, moving on from Aaron Rodgers saying that

625
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: they communicated that to him last week and now they're

626
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 1: telling the rest of us that they officially did that.

627
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: So Rogers now free to speak to other teams. But

628
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: he'll be on the roster until the start of the

629
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: league year. That's when he'll be released because it's a

630
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 1: June first designation, which has to do with the salary cap.

631
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 1: And the reason I mentioned the salary cap is we

632
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 1: have got an article up on NFL dot com about

633
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 1: the teams to be hit the hardest in free agency

634
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five. Now that's defined by the number

635
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 1: of free agents that they have, not just the salary

636
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 1: cap space.

637
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 2: But these are the six teams that.

638
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 1: Our guy met Okata identified as the ones they're going

639
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: to be hit the hardest. And if you're going to

640
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: be hit the hardest and your negative cap space, that's

641
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 1: a double whammy.

642
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 2: Basically, Ian Rappaport, come.

643
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: On in and join me here, because we want to

644
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: start with the Jets and the Aaron Rodgers situation, and

645
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: let's talk about Davonte Adams as well.

646
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 2: How does he factor in here?

647
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 4: Well?

648
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, first of all, clearly, for the Jets, you move

649
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 9: on from a forty something quarterback, you move on eventually,

650
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 9: potentially from Devon to Adams. I would describe it as likely,

651
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 9: not potentially move on from DeVonta Adams. You're a team

652
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 9: that is going into a little bit of a rebuild,

653
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 9: and I know everybody hates that term. They do have

654
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 9: a ton of talent on defense, actually a bunch of

655
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 9: talent on offense too, but they need a quarterback and

656
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 9: they need to retool some things. You're right, it is

657
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 9: going to be a challenge for the Jets. But anytime, Mike,

658
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 9: you have a new general manager with a different set

659
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 9: of eyeballs than the previous general manager. You have a

660
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 9: new head coach, yes on the defensive side of the ball,

661
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 9: but a far different situation system than what Robert Soli

662
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 9: was running. There's going to be turnover anyway, right, So, like, yes,

663
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 9: I know it's a challenge that Jets only have twenty

664
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 9: million in cap space. They need a quarterback, Whether they

665
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 9: draft one earlier, whether they sign someone in free agency,

666
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 9: They're going to have turnover no matter what. So it's

667
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 9: going to be like probably a year of a lot

668
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 9: of things happening and a lot of moves to get

669
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 9: the right personnel in this transition. So like, is it

670
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 9: going to be a transition year? Like, yeah, I think

671
00:29:58,080 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 9: that might be what they're looking at.

672
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: New GM Darren Mougi and his interview is communicated to

673
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: the front office his plan for how to build this

674
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,719
Speaker 1: thing up, and now he's gonna have to execute on

675
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: that plan. So the Jets confident he will be able

676
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 1: to do that. Let's move on to the Cowboys. Forty

677
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 1: minutes into the show, I just said the word Cowboys. Yeah,

678
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 1: negative salary cap space, but not by much. I mean,

679
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: that's easy to maneuver. Right there. You've got the Micah

680
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: Parsons situation obviously, but you also have DeMarcus Lawrence, Eric Kendricks,

681
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis, O Odiggy Zoo, Oh diggi Zoo could get

682
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 1: paid extremely well on the market. Those guys are a

683
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 1: free agent for the Cowboys.

684
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 9: So the Dallas Cowboys have really made their living or

685
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 9: whatever you would say, by drafting, developing, and signing their

686
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 9: own guys. It's actually partly why they're in this cap

687
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 9: situation that they're in, because they have so many good

688
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 9: players that are highly paid. Yes, Zach Martin could potentially

689
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 9: retire and maybe likely retire is probably a better way

690
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 9: to say it. Some of his money will come off

691
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 9: the BLO. But if the Dallas Cowboys are in a

692
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 9: situation where they just cannot physically resign their own guys

693
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 9: because they don't have cap space, that is bad. And

694
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 9: that really is why, you know, Tom Pelsaro and I

695
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 9: mentioned on Super Bowl Sunday that at least they've had

696
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 9: some internal discussions about potentially dealing Micah Parsons.

697
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 6: The reason you do this because.

698
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 9: You just you don't have enough space, you know, the

699
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 9: money for your own guys. So that's really what's facing

700
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 9: the Cowboys. Do they build up a really really strong

701
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 9: middle class, or do they trade Parsons and go or

702
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 9: do they sign Parsons ago.

703
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 6: We're just going to keep our best guy. That's the dilemma.

704
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Jerry Jones has indicated that Micah Parsons is

705
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 1: going to be a part of this team's future. He

706
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: also said a lot of nice things about Mike McCarthy too,

707
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: and then he didn't come back, So keep an eye

708
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 1: on that one there. The Minnesota Vikings the questions from

709
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: a lot of other teams with quarterback needs to us

710
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 1: at the Senior Bowl. What's going to happen with Sam

711
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: Darnold in Minnesota? Is he gonna get tagged? Because they're

712
00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: very interested because if he gets the chance to get

713
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 1: the open market, he's going to have a lot of suitors.

714
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, he's gonna make a lot of money.

715
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 3: You know.

716
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 6: I know. The season didn't end like Sam Donalds had wanted.

717
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 6: Obviously didn't end.

718
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 9: For anyone like they wanted, except made for the Philadelphia Eagles.

719
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 6: And even still their friends.

720
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 9: Are probably still complaining about things. But donald made himself

721
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 9: a ton of money this year, established himself as a

722
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 9: real legitimate starter in the NFL. I know the Minnesota

723
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 9: Vikings see him as that, right, They see him as

724
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 9: a starting quarterback.

725
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 6: That's not the.

726
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 9: Question The question is can the Vikings pay him what

727
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 9: he's worth? And you know, certainly now that's you got

728
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 9: to think in the Baker Mayfield plus range, right, and

729
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 9: he's gonna be worth a lot of money. Can they

730
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 9: pay him that and still build the team around him?

731
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 9: It's the same dilemma they faced with Kirk Cousins, or

732
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 9: obviously Kirk Cousins was coming off in Achilles and was older.

733
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 9: Can they spend enough for Cousins and build the team

734
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 9: around him to be competitive.

735
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 6: We don't know the answers that because we don't know

736
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 6: the prices yet.

737
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, you were talking about Baker plus and you're talking

738
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 1: about forty million dollars plus per year for Sam Donald,

739
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 1: who has earned it. Good for Sam Darnald, He's been

740
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: through a lot in his career. But Quasia Dolpha Mensa,

741
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: the general manager, My understanding is he wants to have

742
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: that portion of the program where you benefit from a

743
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 1: rookie salary at the quarterback position. You can't do that

744
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 1: if you spend big money on Sam Donald. So a

745
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 1: little bit of a dilemma here for a Dopha mensa.

746
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 1: How's he going to handle? This is going to be

747
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 1: fascinating to watch it play out. NFL dot Com backslash

748
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 1: Okata Okada to check out his article on these six

749
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 1: teams hit hardest in free agency.

750
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 6: It's official.

751
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 9: In the City of Philadelphia there will be no learning tomorrow,

752
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,760
Speaker 9: literally zero learning. If you are in a City of

753
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 9: Philadelphia school or administrative building, you are not allowed to

754
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 9: learn or do anything except go to the Eagles Super

755
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,479
Speaker 9: Bowl victory parade. And by the way, not that anybody

756
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 9: ask my opinion, I support all of this. Nobody wants

757
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 9: to go to school and the Eagles are celebrating the

758
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 9: Super Bowl. They want to be at the parade, yelling

759
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 9: and screaming their heads off, getting to cheat for the

760
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 9: one time in their lives.

761
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 6: And not of any complaints about the Eagles. What Mike,

762
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 6: what could you possibly want?

763
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 2: Where in the hell is all this?

764
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: When I was growing up in Philly, I had to

765
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 1: tell my kids this never happened when I was at

766
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:14,880
Speaker 1: Go ahead, what's up, Michae left Florio?

767
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 2: Go ahead, bring them up.

768
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 9: They weren't winning any Super Bowls then anyway, Michael F. Florio,

769
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 9: welcome back to the Insiders, our very good friend. Sometimes

770
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,399
Speaker 9: you have fantasy expert advice for us.

771
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 6: Sometimes you have funny jokes.

772
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 9: Today you have a mind blowing stats Playoff edition. Why

773
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,760
Speaker 9: don't you start us off by telling us a mind

774
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 9: blowing stat on Saquon Barkley speaking of Super Bowl champions.

775
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,319
Speaker 10: Look, football has been played for a while now, and

776
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 10: despite that, Saquon is the first player in NFL history

777
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 10: with three touchdowns of sixty or more rushing yards in

778
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:54,360
Speaker 10: their playoff.

779
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 2: Career, and he did it all this year.

780
00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 10: In fact, no other player in the Super Bowl era

781
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 10: has at least.

782
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 2: Two touchdowns of sixty plus yards.

783
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,799
Speaker 10: Saquon had two in one game, and all three of

784
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,360
Speaker 10: them came in a two game span.

785
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 8: He also joined Terrell Davis as.

786
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,760
Speaker 10: The only player with at least four hundred rushing yards

787
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 10: and five or more rushing touchdowns in a single playoffs So,

788
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 10: given the season that he had plus this playoffs, easy

789
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,799
Speaker 10: case to be made that Saquon Barkley is coming off

790
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,879
Speaker 10: of the greatest full season any running back has ever

791
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 10: had in NFL history.

792
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,320
Speaker 1: Michael a Florio blow my mind on Jayden Daniels plays.

793
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 10: I don't have to, because he already blew your mind

794
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 10: with fantasy this year, almost leading you to a Championship,

795
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 10: but he had the most passing yards, touchdowns, and rushing yards,

796
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 10: plus the most fantasy points in the playoffs that a

797
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 10: rookie quarterback has ever had.

798
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,839
Speaker 6: The only rookie to ever score more fantasy points in.

799
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 10: The playoffs was Joseph de He's also, as you guys know,

800
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 10: already second rookie quarterback to beat a one seed, first

801
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 10: to make the conference championships without a top three scoring defense.

802
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year, just like for Sakuon, I think

803
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,240
Speaker 2: there is a case to be made here.

804
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,720
Speaker 10: That Jayden Daniels is coming off of the greatest season

805
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 10: any rookie quarterback has ever had in NFL history.

806
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 6: All right, what about Ladd McConkie. Why don't you blow

807
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 6: my mind on that one, tough guy.

808
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,799
Speaker 10: He only played one playoff game this year, Lad, but

809
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 10: he had one hundred and ninety seven receiving yards. That

810
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 10: was the most a rookie has ever posted in any

811
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 10: playoff game in NFL history.

812
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 2: But it wasn't like it was just this one big

813
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:31,399
Speaker 2: game for Lad.

814
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 10: He had over eighty yards in seven of his last

815
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 10: eight games and in the NFL this year six most

816
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 10: yards against man coverage up there with the elites at

817
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 10: the position. He is a bumting star set to break out.

818
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 10: And look, it's way too early to talk fantasy, but

819
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 10: next year in fantasy drafts, expect this got to go

820
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 10: in the second or third round.

821
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 2: He's gonna have that much hype. Secondar, third.

822
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 1: Whow you're blowing my mind right now? FLOURIO, how about

823
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: Xavier Worthy? Can you blow my mind on Xavior Worthy?

824
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:03,280
Speaker 2: I could try.

825
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,800
Speaker 10: He was the second player ever with one hundred and

826
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 10: fifty or more receiving yards and two plus touchdowns in

827
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 10: the Super Bowl and crazy enough, like almost at the

828
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 10: end of the third quarter he had like ten yards,

829
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 10: so he did it all in the fourth quarter. But

830
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,760
Speaker 10: he also became that that was the second most receiving

831
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 10: yards in a total playoffs that a rookie has ever posted,

832
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,439
Speaker 10: behind only Jamar Chase. His one hundred and fifty seven

833
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,760
Speaker 10: yards in a Super Bowl is the fifth most ever

834
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 10: and he tied Terry McLaurin for the most receiving touchdowns

835
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 10: in this year's playoffs. So we saw Worthy get better

836
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 10: and better as the year goes on, and he is

837
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,760
Speaker 10: building on that in a big way heading into next season.

838
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,240
Speaker 6: So all that is good.

839
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 9: Great job can you give us a bonus mind blowing

840
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 9: stat though.

841
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,319
Speaker 10: A fantasy stat because I'm the fantasy guy, right. So,

842
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 10: the three best fantasy playoff games that we have ever

843
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 10: seen by a rookie wide receiver have all come in

844
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 10: the last year. We had Xavier work this year in

845
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:02,760
Speaker 10: the Super Bowl. That was the best game and rookie

846
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 10: has ever posted. Lad mcconkey's, which I just talked about,

847
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 10: was the second best fantasy game in the NFL playoff

848
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 10: his three, and the third was pooping thekuas Loan playoff

849
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 10: game last season. All three top thirty three fantasy points.

850
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 10: And to me, I think the big takeaway from this

851
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,880
Speaker 10: is that rookie wide receivers are just coming into the

852
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,439
Speaker 10: league ready to contribute right away.

853
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 2: There's no more wait till the third year breakout.

854
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 10: So for real life purposes, for fantasy purposes, go.

855
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,959
Speaker 2: Get these rookie wade receivers. You could trust them right away.

856
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 9: In the NFL, God, it used to be like receiver

857
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 9: would come in and to be like, all right, in

858
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 9: two years, this guy's really going a good tribute. I'm

859
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 9: obviously a fantasy guru of our group. I used to

860
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 9: be like, you know what, I'll get this guy next year.

861
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 9: It's not like that anymore.

862
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 6: You got to grab him early.

863
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 9: That is certainly a reality that we all need to embrace,

864
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 9: just like Mike could embrace some buttons under sure, which

865
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 9: obviously he does not.

866
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 6: Michael v. Florio, thank you for joining us.

867
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 9: As always. It was so good. We will have you back.

868
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 9: I don't know at some point really soon. Good stuff though,

869
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,799
Speaker 9: all right, Coming up next, Thanks Mike. Coming up next

870
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,320
Speaker 9: on The Insiders, James Cook?

871
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 6: Is he about to get paid? Like paid paid, like

872
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 6: really paid. If you were wondering how much he would

873
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 6: like to get paid, all you had to do was

874
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 6: go right to his Instagram live. Is that what we're

875
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 6: doing now? I guess anyway too in.

876
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: I know today in The Insiders and NFL Network, James Cook,

877
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 1: the bills running back up for a new deal, says,

878
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: I want to go higher than Derrick Henry. I want

879
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: to go higher than Sakwan Bark, higher than anybody in

880
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: the NFL at the running back position right now. Wants

881
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: to get through fifteen million dollars per season. Here your

882
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 1: highest paid running backs. That's a contract, Josh Jacobs, is

883
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,760
Speaker 1: what ian I think? Four years and forty twelve million

884
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: a year Jonathan Taylor I think was three and forty two.

885
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 1: That fourteen that comes out through Saquon is below that.

886
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,760
Speaker 1: McCaffrey I think is up there. So Ian, your thoughts

887
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 1: on James Cook's chances of getting to fifteen million a.

888
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 6: Year, Well, first of all, you gotta respect him for

889
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:24,280
Speaker 6: wanting it. Now you said he said it. He didn't

890
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 6: say it.

891
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 9: He was on Instagram Live someone said fifteen million per

892
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 9: year and he pinned it. That's how we're doing it

893
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 9: these days. He took it and he just pinned it. John,

894
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 9: don't exactly know how that works. I've never really I've

895
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 9: only done one Instagram Live I think, or maybe two.

896
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 9: I don't know how to pin a comment. But anyway,

897
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:41,440
Speaker 9: that's how we're doing it these days. Should he get it,

898
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,240
Speaker 9: he should want it. Where they actually come in in negotiations,

899
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,320
Speaker 9: I don't know. These are hard deals to do. The

900
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 9: bills have a lot of guys they need to pay,

901
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 9: including maybe Josh Allen and Benford and.

902
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,280
Speaker 6: A lot of people actually were so a lot of people.

903
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 6: So is he gonna get all that?

904
00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,879
Speaker 9: I don't know, but he is good enough to get

905
00:40:59,880 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 9: all that, and I think that's the important part.

906
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 6: James Cook should want all the things.

907
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well look, if anything, say Kwon Barkley and

908
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs and all these guys helped Derrick Henry helped

909
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,919
Speaker 1: to illustrate the value of the running back is still there.

910
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:14,800
Speaker 1: So that should help James Coke. We'll see if he

911
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,919
Speaker 1: can get there, yes, and his agents can get there.

912
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: I've gotten a number of texts from the control room

913
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 1: from people telling me that my face. I'm one day

914
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: to vacation here and so I'm half checked out, but

915
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: apparently my face has been a topic of discussion, so

916
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 1: they when you were reading your promo earlier for the combine,

917
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: I enjoyed it.

918
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 2: I thought it.

919
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:39,279
Speaker 1: So I think we're gonna show the live footage of

920
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 1: me listening to you read the promo.

921
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,080

932

Speaker 1: thought you killed it. I think you're a great host.

933
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 2: You should do.

934
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:15,879
Speaker 9: You're laughing because the promo got me tongue tied. It's

935
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:20,400
Speaker 9: written by a poet, obviously, and when poets write the
