1
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: Tag team back again. The window is closed, so let's begin.

2
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 1: We will break down today's decisions on Breis Hall, Daniel Jones,

3
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: and Moore as the countdown to free agency continues. The

4
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: Rams now Matthew Stafford will return in twenty twenty six,

5
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: but as for his contract, there's work to be done again.

6
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 1: Steve White will be here to tell you where things

7
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: stand with the raining NFL MVP. There's fifty one days

8
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: left to the NFL Draft and Brian Ballneer cannot wait

9
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: that long. Baldy's back with some combine bawlers. You'll be

10
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: hearing a lot about in the weeks to come. Welcome

11
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: inside with the insiders alongside Ian Rappaport and Judy Matista.

12
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: I am Tom Pellisero. Eight days away from the start

13
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: of the new league year next Wednesday, which also means

14
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: eight days until Kyler Murray is a officially a former

15
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinal. Murray announcing the news himself earlier today, saying

16
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: goodbye to Arizona on social media. The former number one

17
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: overall draft pick will be released after the league year

18
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 1: begins next Wednesday, March eleven. He has close to forty

19
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: million dollars in guaranteed money left on his contract, which

20
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 1: prevents them from releasing him before that. Another nineteen point

21
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: five million would have become fully guaranteed had Murray still

22
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: been on the roster next Sunday. Obviously, that is not

23
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: going to happen Ian which sets up a situation that

24
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: we've seen in the past, including with Russell Wilson, where

25
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: a quarterback who's got tons of guaranteed money coming to

26
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: him now can go and sign someplace else for next

27
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: to nothing.

28
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: It's amazing how quickly this transition can happen from a

29
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 2: franchise quarterback who said to be a former franchise quarterback

30
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 2: fell out of favor with the organization. Essentially, they moved

31
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 2: on from him during the season and they decided Jacoby

32
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 2: Brissette was going to be the starter. As Kyler Murray's

33
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 2: foot injury. He's healthy now, but as Kyler Murray's foot

34
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: injury was not healing like anybody at Hope. He goes

35
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 2: from that to being one of the more intriguing free

36
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: agents on the market. And part of the reason is

37
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 2: what you explain, Tom, He's going to cost whichever team

38
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,239
Speaker 2: he lands nothing, It's going to be the minimum because

39
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 2: the Arizona Cardinals are paying for most of the contracts,

40
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: so it is as low risk and as can possibly be.

41
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 2: And because Judy, we have seen Kyler Murray play some excellent, excellent,

42
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 2: impressive football over the last several years, there is going

43
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 2: to be someone who believes they can get the best

44
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 2: out of him and use him as the starter for

45
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 2: several years. A place to keep an eye on would

46
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 2: be the Minnesota Vikings. They want to bring in a

47
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 2: veteran alongside JJ McCarthy. Kyler Murray makes a lot of

48
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,559
Speaker 2: sense for Minnesota.

49
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, Kyler is now in the pool of quarterbacks that

50
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 3: we expect to be free agents, this sort of mid

51
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 3: level free agent group. Kirk Cousins to a Tugafailoa Willis

52
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 3: will be in there too. Kyler Murray, when healthy, is

53
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 3: the best of that group. Certainly when he has been

54
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 3: healthy and at his best with the Cardinals, he occasionally

55
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 3: played up like an MVP level for a quarterback. The

56
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 3: question is can he stay healthy, can the organization believe

57
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 3: in him? Can he go to a place that will

58
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 3: get the best out of him. As you pointed out,

59
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 3: it's a pretty low risk move for whatever team signs him.

60
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 3: They're not going to have to pay all that much

61
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: money for him, and the upside is potentially enormous. I

62
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 3: expect that he will have a market and as you

63
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 3: pointed out, certainly keep an eye on the vikings for this.

64
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 4: The upside is the key here.

65
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: Number one pick in the twenty nineteen draft, Kyler Murray

66
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: is still only twenty eight years old, which means unlike

67
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: a Kirk Cousins or Gino Smith if he were released,

68
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: or a Joe Flacco, it's not just a short term

69
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: type of solution getting him on the minimum. If things

70
00:03:54,560 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: go well, potentially some team could stumble onto their future franchise.

71
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 4: Quarterback as well.

72
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: You take a look at the numbers that Kyler Murray

73
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: put up during his time in Arizona. He was a

74
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: two time Pro Bowl quarterback there through for over twenty

75
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: thousand yards, one hundred and twenty one touchdowns. Did make

76
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: the playoffs once. It was a very brief appearance in

77
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: the playoffs, but certainly somebody who we've seen have production

78
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: at the NFL level. Let's bring in our Brian Balldninger

79
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: and Steve White for a little bit more on this story. Steve,

80
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: you've covered him in the NFC West for a number

81
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 1: of years. Now, what do you make of Kyler Murray

82
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: at this stage and where potentially there could be the

83
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: right fit.

84
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 5: Well, Tom, he's an exciting player when he's on the field.

85
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 5: But you talked about and he's on that graphic. He's

86
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 5: missed thirty games in his career. Twenty seven of those

87
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 5: have come after he signed that big two hundred and

88
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 5: thirty million dollars extension in twenty twenty two. We know

89
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 5: he only played in five games last year. So the

90
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 5: durability question is the question.

91
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 6: When it comes to Kyler Murray.

92
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 5: But you talk about the size of the contract, why

93
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 5: wouldn't a team like the Jets or Minnesota A or

94
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 5: even Miami pursue him. It all depends on the style

95
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 5: of play that the coach wants to play, and if

96
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 5: Kyler Murray, who plays off schedule at Baldi, fits that

97
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 5: style or even wants to come come in and compete,

98
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 5: then maybe you take a risk on him because again,

99
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 5: if he stays healthy, he's a dynamic player. One last thing,

100
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 5: Baldy twenty twenty four, when he played all seventeen games

101
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,839
Speaker 5: Arizona was eight and nine. That's the best record he

102
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 5: had as a full time starter, except for the one

103
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 5: year when he had the winning record in twenty twenty

104
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 5: one when he set the big number for the contract year.

105
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 7: Steve, all things you said are absolutely true. He being

106
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 7: twenty eight years old as Tom. And the upside of

107
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 7: this is the tacent that made the number one pick

108
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 7: in the draft seven years ago is still there. He's

109
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 7: still has the big arm, he's still mobility, he's still acuracy.

110
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 7: I mean, he's completed sixty seven percent of his passes

111
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 7: over the seven years. And I'll sit the rock has

112
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 7: not been great at any point, and so like the

113
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 7: talent that you know that came into the league with

114
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 7: this is still very much there. Now you can say, Okay,

115
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 7: the injuries have kind of taken a.

116
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 8: Little bit out of it.

117
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 7: I think it happens he doesn't run quite the same

118
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 7: as he did when he first came into this league,

119
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 7: but he is going to return from this list frank injury.

120
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 7: I feel like wherever he goes, I don't know that

121
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 7: anybody's going to hand him a job. I don't think

122
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 7: that's going to happen, but he's going to get a

123
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 7: chance to compete in a number of different places.

124
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 8: If they decide to.

125
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 7: Sign him and Colmer competing with the talent that he has,

126
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 7: he's got a chance to win some jobs, a.

127
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 4: Lot of talent.

128
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: Also some inconsistencies, kind of like Baldi's Mike. We'll get

129
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 1: that fixed before you come back, Baldy in just a

130
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: little bit, Steve, Thank you very much as well. This

131
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: is also the day in which the franchise and transition

132
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 1: tag window closed, only four tags total to today, the

133
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: franchise tag four Greasee Hall, the transition tag for Daniel Jones,

134
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 1: and focusing on Daniel Jones. This was an ongoing type

135
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: of a situation here that the Colts were working through

136
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: because they've also got one of the top free agents

137
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: to be in wide receiver Alec Pierce as well.

138
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 4: You could only use one tag.

139
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: It then came down to you're not going to allow

140
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: the quarterback out the door to use the franchise or

141
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: the transition tag. Well, in the case of Daniel Jones,

142
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: and based on where they felt like his market were at,

143
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: they were willing to take a little bit of a

144
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: risk here with the franchise tag. If he signs an

145
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: offer sheet someplace else, then you get two first round

146
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: picks in return if you don't match it for the

147
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: transition tag, which is about six million dollars less, you

148
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: do not get any compensation if Jones ends up signing

149
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: a new deal elsewhere. But at the same time, the

150
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: baseline that is set on the transition number versus the

151
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 1: franchise number a little bit more palatable, Judy for where

152
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: they ultimately expected Daniel Jones contract to come in if

153
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: and when they're able to finalize something long term.

154
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a calculated risk by the Colts, but

155
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 3: it's really not a tremendous risk by the Colts because

156
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 3: certainly they expect the market to be at a certain

157
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 3: point and perhaps it's a little bit dampened for Daniel

158
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 3: Jones because he is coming off the Achilles injury, So

159
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 3: if a new team were to sign him, he's not

160
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 3: going to be available for a large chunk of the

161
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 3: offseason to get acclimated with that new team. So they

162
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 3: clearly are not expecting that the market is going to

163
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 3: come in and blow Daniel Jones away and then they

164
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 3: won't be able to match. They expect to keep Daniel Jones.

165
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 3: They want to keep Daniel Jones. Daniel Jones wants to

166
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 3: be there also that is tied into Alec Pierce, their

167
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 3: wide receiver, who is going to be a free agent

168
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 3: unless they can get a deal done with him in

169
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 3: the next few days. So we will see where this goes.

170
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 3: With Daniel Jones.

171
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 4: Again, there is.

172
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 3: A risk that they wouldn't match a deal and they

173
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 3: would lose Daniel Jones and also not get compensation, But

174
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 3: I feel like the risk is pretty minimal for the

175
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 3: Indianapolis Colts.

176
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 2: Here yea incentive for the Colt shooting to do a

177
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 2: long term deal with Daniel Jones sooner rather than later.

178
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 2: They're right up against it with the salary cap. They

179
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 2: could restructure some guys, they can figure this out. But

180
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 2: if they do a long term deal with Daniel Jones,

181
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 2: their cap situation gets a lot easier. And that might

182
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 2: be pretty important because, as you mentioned, Alec Pierce going

183
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 2: to be a.

184
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 9: Free agent now.

185
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 2: Now the Colts made an aggressive move to try to

186
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 2: sign him before the franchise tag deadline. That was never

187
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 2: going to happen. He was not going to sign unless

188
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 2: he knew for sure who his quarterback was going to be.

189
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 2: Now he knows it's Daniel Jones. But timing really is

190
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 2: not on the colt side. Here Today is Tuesday, right,

191
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 2: and so in like five days or four days, whatever

192
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 2: the math may be, the tampering window begins. Players never

193
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 2: get this close to free agency. Dona Lae's entertained offers

194
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 2: are hard to imagine. He does any deal until at

195
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,719
Speaker 2: least the end of the week before he's gonna find

196
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 2: out what's out there. Besides George Piggins, who now is

197
00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 2: a franchise tagged member of the Dallas Cowboys, this is

198
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 2: one of the top free agents regardless of position, certainly

199
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 2: the top ride receiver.

200
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 9: He's going to get a huge deal.

201
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 2: And the culture now not competing with themselves but the

202
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 2: entire rest of the NFL.

203
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: The Frange negotiating window opens on Monday, which is six

204
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: days after Tuesday. Ian good to see that your brain

205
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: has already broken and free agency frenzy has not even

206
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,199
Speaker 1: yet kicked off. We also had the franchise tag applied

207
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: to running back Brice Hall Judy. There have been speculation

208
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: about a potential transition tag, but the goal for the

209
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: Jets was always keep Brice Hall in New York. The

210
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 1: franchise tag does that in a much stronger.

211
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 4: Way and add a number that if you're brace Hall.

212
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: You can do worse than playing it out if you

213
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: have to one year in over fourteen million.

214
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

215
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 3: You remember they did not trade him when they were

216
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 3: trading everybody else at the trade deadline last year, and

217
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 3: Aaron Glenn said, well, they wanted him. They want to

218
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:55,119
Speaker 3: build around a player like Brice Hall, so the franchise

219
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 3: tag keeps him there. They still would like to get

220
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 3: perhaps a long term deal, and I would expect this

221
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 3: to go all the way down to July. And actually

222
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 3: it behooves Breshall to wait and see how the market

223
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,559
Speaker 3: gets set, because there are an awful lot of running

224
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 3: backs available now. The Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker is

225
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 3: one of them. We've got guys who are coming up

226
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 3: for a big extension. So certainly if he waits, the

227
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 3: market may take a big jump and he can take

228
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 3: advantage of that. But at the very least, we would

229
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 3: expect that Breese Hall will be with the New York

230
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 3: Jets for at least one more season.

231
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 2: Timing is absolutely on Breeese Hall's side.

232
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 9: You mentioned those big name running mats.

233
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,839
Speaker 2: You got Jamior Gibbs do for a massive deal with

234
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 2: the Detroit Lions.

235
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 9: Part of the reason why they traded David Montgomery.

236
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 2: That is one, you have Bjeon Robinson with the Atlanta Falcons,

237
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 2: also eligible for a contract extense, and someone you know they.

238
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 9: Would like to redo.

239
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 2: The longer Breshall waits, the more the price tag goes up.

240
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 2: So no doubt at least he's going to get through

241
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 2: free agencies. See one of these guys. See if someone

242
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: comes in there maybe beats fourteen artil magic, but you

243
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 2: never know, and then his price tag only goes up. Look,

244
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: it's pretty clear for the Jets they would have liked

245
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 2: to transition tag him. If you're in the position of

246
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 2: the Jets are, and obviously it's.

247
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 9: Been a struggle.

248
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 2: They have plenty of cap space, probably a little more

249
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 2: than they wanted to spend. Just keep your best players

250
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 2: on the team and move forward with them. That is

251
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,319
Speaker 2: what they did with Bryce holler Oier today.

252
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: So once again to reiterate, negotiating window opens in six

253
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: days on Monday. New league year begins in eight days

254
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: next Wednesday, March eleventh. At that point you have to

255
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 1: be in cap compliance and if you're holding a tag

256
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: on Daniel Jones, George Pickens, Brice Hall, Kyle Pitts. The

257
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: entire tag hits the cap next Wednesday, certainly some motivation

258
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: if those teams are going to work out long term deals.

259
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 3: Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is the league's most valuable player.

260
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 3: He told us from the stage actually at NFL Honors

261
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 3: that he is going to play next season. That was

262
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 3: to the delight of his coaches and teammates who were

263
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: in the audience. Here is his coach, Sean mcvagh on

264
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 3: Stafford and on one of the teammates.

265
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,079
Speaker 10: Matthew announced that he would be coming back for another season.

266
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 9: Has his will he play on.

267
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 10: The second year of this contract design or will you

268
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 10: guys adjust that again?

269
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 4: We're working.

270
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 10: We've had great dialogue, you know. I think the good

271
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 10: thing is is you know that that communication that exists,

272
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 10: you know, feel confident about being able to work those

273
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 10: things out. Sarah. We were obviously really fired up, had

274
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 10: a sense that that was a direction it was going

275
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 10: to go. But that's always the first That's always as

276
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 10: important as anything is having a guy like him excited

277
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 10: and motivated to continue to play at a good clip.

278
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 10: I think we learned some things about how we can

279
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 10: manage the off season and training camp as good as

280
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 10: possible to keep him as fresh mentally, physically, and emotionally.

281
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 10: And you know, we're working through all of those things.

282
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 10: But feel good about the direction that we're headed as

283
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 10: it relates to you know, Matthew being in.

284
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 8: Good shape for us.

285
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 9: Davante's entering the last year of his deal. Have there

286
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,199
Speaker 9: been any talks with him about maybe some kind of

287
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 9: restructure or extension?

288
00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 4: Haven't.

289
00:13:58,440 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 10: I haven't talked about anything like that.

290
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 9: You know, feel good about you know where we're at there.

291
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 10: I think the main focus and concentration for us has

292
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 10: been on free agency.

293
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 9: You know, guys that are truly free agents for us?

294
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 6: What are the upcoming plans?

295
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 10: Because you know next Monday will be here before we

296
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 10: know it, So making sure that you get all your

297
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 10: contingency plans in place, you know, in addition to the

298
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 10: draft in different ways to onboard people. But expect him

299
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 10: to be ready to roll, expect him to even be

300
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 10: better in year two. And that's kind of where we're

301
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 10: at with that.

302
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 3: All right, let's bring back our Steve Wois to join me.

303
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 3: I am Judy Batista. Steve, Let's talk about what we

304
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 3: just heard Sean McVeigh talk about. He said, they've had

305
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 3: good conversations with Matthew Stafford about a contract. What do

306
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 3: you expect the future holds for Stafford?

307
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 5: First off, Matthew Stafford might be the cherry on top

308
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 5: at the business of getting contract extensions. He has owed

309
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 5: forty million on his current contract right now. That number

310
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 5: is going to go up. That forty million dollars a

311
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 5: year does not put him in the top ten.

312
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 6: As you just mentioned, Judy, he is the most valuable

313
00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 6: player of the league.

314
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 5: But with the RAM tend to do and as McVeigh

315
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 5: and general manager Less Sneed said said today, they take

316
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 5: care of other business first. When they do extensions with

317
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 5: players under contract, that almost always comes near training camp.

318
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 5: So you can expect Matthew Stafford to get some type

319
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 5: of bump or multi year extension even though they say

320
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 5: it's year to year or something they can get out

321
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 5: of after the twenty twenty sixth season, sometime near training camp.

322
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 5: But that number is going to go up from that

323
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 5: forty million. Now what I just said dovetails into Devonte Adams.

324
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 5: He also is under contract. Sean McVay said they expect

325
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 5: him to be back in the second year of his

326
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 5: deal and to be even better. But if there is

327
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 5: going to be a contract adjustment or extension, that will

328
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 5: happen a little bit later on. Now and going to

329
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 5: some of the other players, you know, the free.

330
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 6: Agents that they talked about.

331
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 5: Safety Cam Curl is a player Sean McVay brought up specifically. Now,

332
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 5: they've already extended the fellow safety, Quinton Lake, and the

333
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 5: Rams tend not to pay a lot to that position,

334
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 5: but Cam Curl is a player that they like and

335
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 5: they also both need and McVeigh said they played two

336
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 5: different roles, so signing two safeties to extensions should not

337
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 5: be a problem.

338
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 3: Well, that brings us to our next question. Of course,

339
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 3: the Rams were oh so close this season. Every team

340
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 3: has needs. We're about to start free agency, the draft

341
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 3: is coming up. What are their biggest needs going into

342
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 3: this offseason?

343
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 5: Well, the biggest needs are there a cornerback situation. They've

344
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 5: got four of their own, starting with Kobe Durant, who

345
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 5: are free agents right now, leaving them with there's three

346
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 5: cornerbacks on the roster, but they also want to improve

347
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 5: that position as well.

348
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 6: So do they go.

349
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 5: Into free agency and do that? Do they re sign

350
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 5: somebody like Kobe Durant, or do they go into the draft.

351
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 5: Do you remember, Judy, They've got the thirteenth and the

352
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 5: twenty ninth overall draft picks, and we know less Need

353
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 5: loves to maneuver on draft day in terms of trade.

354
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 5: So that is the key position. But they also could

355
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 5: fortify their offensive line. Most teams actually could. But that

356
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 5: corner and the offensive line adding depth right there, be it,

357
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 5: free agency, be it the draft is something that the

358
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 5: Rams actually could do.

359
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 6: Let's also look at the Rams history.

360
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 5: They're not afraid to make in season trades to upgrade positions,

361
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 5: especially in the secondary, and think about what they did

362
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 5: when acquiring Marcus Peters and Jalen Ramsey in the past.

363
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 3: What Sneed is not afraid, neither of Steve Wish Steve,

364
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 3: thank you very much.

365
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,879
Speaker 8: Come on, well, come on, we get off comment.

366
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 6: Hey what said?

367
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 4: Let's go man see my girl?

368
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 6: So you ella, that is gonna bring all the sig

369
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:31,120
Speaker 6: right now.

370
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 8: That's why I do it, bust in the world, no hesitation.

371
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 7: Come on, Crosby's got the first second to twenty five

372
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 7: from the backside. All else told, I told you, ah risa.

373
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,880
Speaker 1: Free agency frenzy can sometimes become trade for it will

374
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: all be live right here on NFL Network next week.

375
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: But for a preview, we bring in our friend Adam Rank,

376
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: who is never afraid have thoughts and predictions and analysis.

377
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 1: Rank give me your your look ahead to the free

378
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 1: agent frenzy to come.

379
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 8: All right, thank you so much. Host.

380
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 11: The NFL is gearing up for free agency Frenzy next week,

381
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 11: but that doesn't mean we can have some fun right now.

382
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 6: In fact, the NFL has.

383
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 11: Already seen a flurry of trades that are making as

384
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 11: teams are making one last desk to stock their rosters

385
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 11: before the fund begins, kind of like taking a run

386
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 11: to Costco to stock up before the party starts. And

387
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 11: the big prize, however, is going to be current Raiders

388
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 11: edge rusher Max Crosby, who if the NFL was a

389
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 11: reality TV show, Max Crosby would be the Bachelor.

390
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 9: The Raiders would be the biggest loser.

391
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 11: And you know what, instead of like dealing draft picks,

392
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 11: wide receivers and linebackers and stuff like that, perhaps the

393
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 11: NFL should stage this like the Bachelor. Have all thirty

394
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 11: two teams stay in a mansion, make fools of themselves

395
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 11: and compete.

396
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 6: For the final rows.

397
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 11: The rose being Max Crosby, although as I'm saying this,

398
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 11: I realized that would make the fantasy suites sort of weird.

399
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,679
Speaker 11: So why don't we settle this the way most NFL

400
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:23,439
Speaker 11: business is done, where content creators of certain teams start

401
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 11: bugging the player individually.

402
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 6: And speaking of which.

403
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 11: Max, I just started following you on Twitter. Just wanted

404
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,959
Speaker 11: to throw that out to just say, you know, but

405
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 11: here's the thing, there was already a big trade this week.

406
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 11: The Lions have agreed to trade David Montgomery to the

407
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,160
Speaker 11: Houston Texans for some picks for some linemen.

408
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 8: And you might be saying to.

409
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 11: Yourself, why are the Texans trading lineman? They had the

410
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 11: twenty seventh worst offensive line last year according to Pro

411
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 11: Football Focus, which is exactly why you get rid of

412
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 11: those guys. Why would you want them if they're not working,

413
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 11: Why do you still want them hanging around? You want

414
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 11: to get rid of them because you want David Montgomery

415
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 11: to go out there to succeed. And by the way,

416
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 11: this whole thing unfolded over the weekend, there was an

417
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 11: ESPN report that said David that David Montgomery had asked

418
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 11: to be traded by the Lions, and then David Montgomery

419
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 11: responded by going, hey, he went all third person, he

420
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 11: went the rock, he goes did DeMont tell you that?

421
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 11: But DeMont did get traded to the Houston Texas. And

422
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,439
Speaker 11: I kind of liked this deal because David Montgomery is

423
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 11: one of my favorite players in the leagues. Now I

424
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 11: don't have to root for him as a member of

425
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 11: the Lions, So that's selfishly great for me, and at

426
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 11: the same time, it's great for my fantasy team because

427
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:41,719
Speaker 11: Jamier Gibbs should now be the number one pick in

428
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 11: your fantasy drafts this season. In fact, I will have

429
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 11: more thoughts on that next week when NFL Fantasy Life.

430
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,479
Speaker 11: You know, actually, I don't want to promote any other

431
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 11: It's unsettling to promote other projects that I'm working on

432
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 11: here on the Insiders.

433
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 6: I would never do that.

434
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 11: But finally, let's talk about the Dallas Cowboys, who.

435
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 8: Are on bar working on one of the most.

436
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 11: Contested contract battles they've had since last year with Micah Parsons,

437
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 11: but this time the contract dispute involves the most prolific

438
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 11: offensive player from the Dallas Cowboys since Emmitt Smith, and

439
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 11: of course I'm talking about Brandon Aubrey.

440
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 6: Their kicker.

441
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 11: Yes, their kicker is the best offensive player that they have.

442
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,719
Speaker 6: I know they have Jabonte Williams. They got him locked up.

443
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 11: George Pickens has been tagged with a franchise tag, but

444
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 11: you gotta lock up Brandon Aubrey. It is so important

445
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 11: to be able to make your three pointers, which I

446
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 11: learned this weekend. Is my call of the cal State

447
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 11: Fullerton in Hawaii game when Viral I was on Awful announcing,

448
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,639
Speaker 11: I was on Sports Center and I will be back

449
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 11: at Titan Gym Thursday night as cal State Fullerton place

450
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 11: post to use the East San Diego ten pm Eastern

451
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 11: exclusively on ESPN Plus host not gonna lie.

452
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 1: I saw that clip and I thought that had to

453
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 1: be a based on your reaction to season ending loss.

454
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,640
Speaker 1: I thought we were done, but apparently there's more. Get

455
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 1: out of here, Rank, go back to doing your fastball

456
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 1: or whatever else you got going on. We got to

457
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: tell more football to talk about on this show, including

458
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 1: our top story tonight. Kyler Murray will be released by

459
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: the Cardinals next week.

460
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 4: It will break down his market.

461
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: And the future of some other players who did not

462
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 1: get tagged today. That's all I had right here on

463
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: the Insiders our top story tonight, Kyler Murray will soon

464
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 1: be a former Arizona Cardinal. Murray announcing the expected news

465
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: on social media earlier today, saying goodbye to the Cardinals,

466
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: who will release him after the new league year begins

467
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: next Wednesday, March eleventh. Kyler, due over thirty six million

468
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: dollars fully guaranteed in twenty twenty six, would have had

469
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: another nineteen point five million in twenty twenty seven become

470
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 1: fully guaranteed if he were still on the roster as

471
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: of March sixteenth. That is not going to happen. Kyler

472
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 1: now set to become a fascinating free agent, and based

473
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: on that guaranteed money, most likely signed somewhere for a

474
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:22,679
Speaker 1: minimum salary. Today was also the deadline to apply franchise

475
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 1: and transition tags. Four players and all got tagged Kyle Pitts,

476
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: George Pickens. Those happened last week, the Jets using the

477
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: franchise tag on Breise Hall, the Colts using the transition

478
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 1: tag on quarterback Daniel Jones, first time in several decades

479
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: that a QB has gotten that tag. Ian One name

480
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: we do not see on this list is the Bengals

481
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: pass rusher Trey Hendrickson, which comes as great relief to

482
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson.

483
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 4: Finally out of Cincinnati.

484
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 9: Yeah, freedom for Trey Hendrickson.

485
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 2: It has been a long side for the star pass

486
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 2: rusher and the Cincinnati Bengals, going back several years, a

487
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 2: couple of trade requests, a couple of contract adjustments, andthing

488
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 2: the Bengals could do to keep him in a Cincinnati

489
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 2: uniform without giving the long, long term, fully guaranteed money

490
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 2: that he would want. Now he ended up playing last

491
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 2: year at surgery to end the season to not finished

492
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 2: season on the field of the Cincinnati Bengals. He is

493
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 2: fully healthy now and this chapter is officially over because

494
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 2: he is.

495
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:21,719
Speaker 9: Going to be free now.

496
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 2: There's gonna be a lot of teams interested in Trey Anderson.

497
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 2: I would expect his old defensive coordinator to Luanna Rum

498
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 2: who's with the cold step interest. There are going to

499
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 2: be several others, But the main thing here is one

500
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 2: of the top edge rushers on the market not going

501
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 2: back to Cincion. They are going to be able to

502
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 2: spend on several other pieces to improve their defense.

503
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 3: Well, and they certainly need to improve their defense. At

504
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 3: some point. We can go through the hope breakdown of

505
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,400
Speaker 3: how Trey Hendrickson is now finally free and the Bengals

506
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 3: are getting absolutely nothing in return. But let's focus on

507
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 3: Trey Hendrickson here. He's thirty one years old and when

508
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 3: he is healthy, he is still wild productive. He was

509
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 3: injured last year, but the two previous seasons gets seventeen

510
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 3: and a half sex each of those seasons, so he

511
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 3: is so very productive. As long as he can stay

512
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,920
Speaker 3: on the field, there should be a market for him.

513
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 3: He has waited a very, very long time to be

514
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 3: a free agent. Finally he is going to be. Can't

515
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 3: wait to see where he lands.

516
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: There could be trades, of course, Max Crosby one we've

517
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,919
Speaker 1: talked a lot about. There could be other pass rushers

518
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: who end up getting released. Bradley Chubb is going to

519
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: be released after the start of the league year. But

520
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: if we're talking about unrestricted free agents, Ian there is

521
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,359
Speaker 1: nobody better in this market than Trey Anderson.

522
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:38,479
Speaker 9: No doubt about it.

523
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 2: Not the only great player though that did not receive

524
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 2: the franchise tag.

525
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 4: There are a couple others.

526
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 2: Alex Pierce, we talked about top receiver on the market.

527
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 9: Super Bowl MVP Ken Thwarger are going to have a

528
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 9: really nice market. Travis y Eaton as well.

529
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 2: Dafe Lay one of the best trades made during the season.

530
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 2: Actually that was a mutually beneficial trade. He also did

531
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,239
Speaker 2: not receive the franchise. So really, as I bring in

532
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 2: our good friend Steve Weisch, this sets the table for

533
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 2: what the next ten days or so is going to

534
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 2: look like. Steve Right, I mean, we franchise tags over.

535
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 2: Those guys are going to be in their own SEPEC apartment,

536
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 2: going to do deals if they possibly can.

537
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 9: But we now know who is free.

538
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you a little bit about

539
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 2: some of these stars that are not tagged.

540
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 9: Why don't you take me through the tight.

541
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 2: End position for players not named Kyle Pitts who didn't

542
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 2: get the tag.

543
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 5: Ian And this is a group that's got some big

544
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 5: names to it. I mean, you've got guyas like David

545
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,919
Speaker 5: and Djoku and Dallas Goddard. But let's look at Isaiah

546
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 5: Likely from the Baltimore Ravens.

547
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,640
Speaker 6: He's coming off of a career low in a lot

548
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 6: of numbers.

549
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 5: Because he missed a few games because he had an

550
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 5: early season foot surgery. But he has so many incredibly

551
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 5: talented knowing mostly as a receiver, but you talk to

552
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 5: people around the league, he's improved as a blocker. He's

553
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 5: somebody who could be very available. To hear him tied

554
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 5: to some teams like the Washington Commanders with hits off

555
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,199
Speaker 5: the market. Likely could be the top tight end and available.

556
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 5: Another tight end could be available Dallas Goddard, thirty one

557
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 5: years old with the Philadelphia Eagles. He's somebody who kind

558
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 5: of waiting to see what his future lot he does

559
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 5: with the team, if he wants to resign there. But

560
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 5: we know he's a big, physical receiver, a very good blocker,

561
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 5: but he's also.

562
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 6: The pusher on the touch push.

563
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 5: He's a guy who lands up behind Jalen Hurts and

564
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 5: pushes him into the end zone. So got her at

565
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 5: thirty one. Also available and also another big name, Let's

566
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 5: go to former Cleveland tight end David Nadjoku. Now, there

567
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 5: were some people who thought that if the Falcons let

568
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 5: Kyle Pitch hit the market that Najoku could rejoin Kevin Stefanski.

569
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,960
Speaker 5: But here's Najoku, a bigger tight end. We know he

570
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,160
Speaker 5: is a receiving threat, but again he is coming off

571
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 5: of a low with some of his numbers.

572
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 6: He had very few targets last years.

573
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,479
Speaker 5: He kind of got phased out of the offense in

574
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 5: that dismal Browns offense. But he could be somebody with

575
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 5: an accomplished track record who could help out another team,

576
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 5: especially with these teams that are going to it's multiple

577
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 5: use tight ends. And now another tight end who has

578
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 5: quietly been doing work for years down in Tampa Bay

579
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 5: who hit the market.

580
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 6: That is caid O.

581
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,199
Speaker 5: A very solid player in the blocking and the run games.

582
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 5: He's somebody again. He can do it at a lot

583
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 5: of different levels. You know, you saw him there on

584
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 5: the inside hook on this reception. He can get a

585
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 5: little bit deeper. A fairly reliable player, and this is

586
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 5: something I'm a little surprised. He got to the market

587
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 5: with the franchise tag number only being around fifteen million,

588
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 5: and his vital was hot is to that offense. So

589
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 5: he's somebody who could be in big demand with free

590
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 5: agency opens hem.

591
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 2: I actually wondered if the Bucks would re up Kate

592
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 2: Outen last year kind of ran out of time a

593
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 2: little bit doing some other guys.

594
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 9: He now is going to be.

595
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 2: Free, as are several really good inside linebackers.

596
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 9: You know, I was just an Indie for a week.

597
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 2: There's a lot of really good inside linebacker prospects there

598
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 2: performing incredibly well. Pretty good free agent crop to want

599
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 2: you take me through some of the biggest names of

600
00:28:58,560 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 2: this position.

601
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, a lot of good.

602
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 5: Names here because this is one because the edge rushers,

603
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 5: that franchise tag number was above twenty five million. Yeah,

604
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 5: so that's why you're seeing someone like Jaguars inside linebacker

605
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 5: Devin Lloyd, who is coming off of a string a

606
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 5: four really good years. We really had a bounce back

607
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 5: year last year after coming back from missing some time.

608
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:17,959
Speaker 6: He has. We know he's very good in coverage.

609
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 5: He can run a good sideline a sideline guy, but

610
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 5: also a very good run stopper. Someone's gonna get a

611
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 5: very good, athletic, cerebral linebacker in Devin Lloyd if he

612
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 5: does not resign with the Jacksonville Jaguars. But as you said, Ian,

613
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 5: a lot of good young draft prospects could determine how

614
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 5: much money he gets in free agency. Let's go to

615
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 5: another free agent who's a very good and productive player.

616
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 6: For the Atlanta foul because that's cave Ellis.

617
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 5: This is somebody is a true inside linebacker, but he

618
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 5: is also someone who is turned loose in rushing situations,

619
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 5: not so much from.

620
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 6: The edge, more from the interior.

621
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 5: He got phased out a little bit, but again that

622
00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 5: number was so big on the franchise tag number they

623
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 5: opt to let him go, especially with the emergence of

624
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 5: Divine Diablo at the other inside linebacker spot. Kaid Nellis

625
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 5: has been highly productive for two teams in New Orleans

626
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 5: Saints after slow start, and then the Atlanta Falcons, so

627
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 5: again a true three down linebacker with kaid Nellis, a

628
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 5: lot of good inside linebackers going to hit free agency.

629
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 5: But I as you mentioned once again, when you see

630
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 5: people like r bel Reese and Styles who just blew

631
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 5: up the combine last week, that draft class of inside

632
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 5: backers is gonna make this free agent market really intriguing

633
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 5: to see who goes fast and how much money these

634
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 5: guys get.

635
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 9: That's a great call, not a tonnement.

636
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 2: But what there is is a lot of really really

637
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 2: good players.

638
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 9: Kate Newis, you know what you're getting.

639
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 2: He is going to fill up the stat sheet, as

640
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 2: does our good friend Steve. Why Steve, thank you very

641
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 2: much for hanging out with us. Great stuff. As always,

642
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 2: I mentioned Indianapolis Brian Baldinger has taken a big time

643
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 2: look at some of these studs from the combine. He's

644
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 2: going to give us his followers from the week coming on.

645
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: That the NFL combines in the books, and Charles Davis

646
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: has a new mock draft out.

647
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 4: You can see it over at NFL dot com. No surprise.

648
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza at one Jets Goo Edge with David Bailey.

649
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: And then how about that number three Cardinals starting out

650
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 1: the Mike Lafleur era with running back Jeremiah Love. What

651
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 1: do you think, Jeremiah? He caught up with our Stacy Dales.

652
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 8: Is just so impressive.

653
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: What has come up in these meetings from these teams

654
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: this week is you get ready for this draft?

655
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 3: Yeah?

656
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 12: So, I mean a lot of coaches they watched the film.

657
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 12: They see the film and we talk about blocking schemes

658
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 12: and how I progress to the blocking and stuff like that.

659
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 12: But most of the meetings were just about me as

660
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 12: a person.

661
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 4: You know.

662
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 12: They wanted to get know me more off the field

663
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 12: and just what motivated me and what drove me to

664
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 12: just come this far.

665
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 8: We cannot wait to see where you're gonna get drafted.

666
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 8: Where do you think you're going to get.

667
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 12: Drafted, I don't know.

668
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 13: I don't know, top maybe top ten, top five hopefully,

669
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 13: and you're going to get a lot of people saying

670
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 13: the Chiefs or the Saints or the giants. All I

671
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,479
Speaker 13: got to say is I'd be blessed to go anywhere.

672
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 13: We're ch you eating tonight.

673
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 6: I'm going to get me.

674
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 12: A chotless shape from Chick fil A, No whipped cream,

675
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 12: cherry all that. I've been craving to chotless shape since

676
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 12: I've been training in OC. So I finally get to

677
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 12: enjoy it, go get it.

678
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 4: But a great job. It work out like that.

679
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: You can have whatever you want for dinner once and

680
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: then it's right back to the grind.

681
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 4: Welcome back to the insiders.

682
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: Tom Pilicero, Brian Balldinger, here with bald these Combine ballers.

683
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: We have to start Baldi with Kenyan Sadiq, fastest tight

684
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 1: end we've seen at the Combine since two thousand and three.

685
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 4: What did you see from him?

686
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 8: You know, he was the crown jewel of the tight

687
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 8: ends coming in and I'm ever.

688
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 7: Just watching it warm up before he ran the forty,

689
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 7: and how smooth he was. But I sat in the

690
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 7: end zone I watched this, I didn't want to look

691
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 7: at the clock, Tom. I just wanted to in my

692
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 7: mind say that was a four to four and it

693
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 7: became a four to thretey nine. His second forty just

694
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 7: so smooth and so explosive right out of the blox.

695
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 7: But just really the way that he moved, And that's

696
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 7: really what this whole scouting process is. Tom is the

697
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 7: study of movement, and that's what you see from him.

698
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 7: He's also an excellent downfield blocker. He's very strong, he's

699
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 7: very powerful. You know, he's got tremendous leaping ability. You know,

700
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 7: forty three and a half inches. Put the ball on

701
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 7: top of the rim and let him go get it.

702
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 7: But all those things stood out in addition to those

703
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 7: incredible times at his size, weight and that speed faster

704
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 7: than Vernon Davis ran when he came out of Maryland.

705
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 1: Ohio State linebackers Sonny Styles another one of these standouts

706
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: of Combine week for a guy ways over two hundred

707
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 1: and forty pounds BOLDI he does things that we never

708
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: have seen a player do at that size. Charles has

709
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: him going number five to the Giants along with pretty

710
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 1: much everybody else. What do you what will impressed him

711
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: most about Sunny Styles, Well.

712
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 7: I mean his length. You know, he's six foot five.

713
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 7: You know, he's just in the passing lanes. But you watch,

714
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,360
Speaker 7: you know, you watch his size and at two hundred

715
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 7: and forty four pounds to be able to run that

716
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 7: four four six right there. But he also had a

717
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,760
Speaker 7: very fast ten yards flit time of one five to one.

718
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,640
Speaker 8: And then like he's jumping to the top.

719
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 7: Of the backboard right there at forty three and a

720
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 7: half inches long jump and then just the movement right here,

721
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 7: he covers a lot of ground, he covers it quickly.

722
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 7: You want to put him in the middle and build

723
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 7: your defense around Sonny Styles. And I think if you

724
00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 7: protect him, let him just go run and clean up.

725
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,360
Speaker 7: He could put up some tremendous numbers. And in addition

726
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 7: to just being in the passing laying and making things

727
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 7: difficult to layer any ball over the top in the

728
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 7: middle of the.

729
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:15,320
Speaker 1: Field, certainly the top edge rusher off the board is

730
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 1: going to be a great point of debate here over

731
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: these next fifty one days. Baldy David Bailey is sawn

732
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: number two on Charles's mock draft. There seems to be

733
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: some momentum here, especially after the way Bailey worked out.

734
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 7: No doubt, I mean too out fifty one pounds and

735
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 7: you know he ran a four five one and uh

736
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:36,359
Speaker 7: for actually four or five was the official time. And

737
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 7: you know his his his start is so electric and

738
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,439
Speaker 7: it shows up on tape all the time. All these

739
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 7: tests new for David Bailey is confirmed what we watched

740
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 7: at Texas Tech this year. He gave every good offensive

741
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,320
Speaker 7: tack we played against this year fits because of his takeoff.

742
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 7: And I don't want to compare him to a future

743
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 7: Hall of Famer, but he's very, very similar to what

744
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 7: von Miller was coming out of Texas A and m

745
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 7: you know, fifteen sixteen years ago. From a size weight,

746
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 7: speed standpoint, I think he's going to be an electric

747
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 7: player off the edge. And I thought this combine really

748
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,280
Speaker 7: confirmed a lot of the things that we saw weekend

749
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 7: week out on tape. With that fierce Texas Tech defensive line.

750
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,720
Speaker 1: It wouldn't be a Baldies Ballers segment without an offensive lineman.

751
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 1: Who do you like Baldi who jumped out at you?

752
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 7: I like a bunch of them. But spencerf Io from Utah,

753
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,720
Speaker 7: I mean you just look at his overall size, weight, speed,

754
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 7: and you know he's played left tackle at Utah, he's

755
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 7: played right tackle heat this last past season right here.

756
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 8: But you know, when you can run a.

757
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 7: Four nine forty like he did and be able to

758
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 7: move like this at his size three hundred eleven pounds,

759
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,399
Speaker 7: I mean, he's very, very similar now to what Trent

760
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,879
Speaker 7: Williams was coming out of Oklahoma back in twenty ten.

761
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 7: He moves a lot like that now. Trent Williams has

762
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 7: done at the highest level for a long long time,

763
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 7: but he's got that type of measure right now. I

764
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 7: think he's got to learn the game a little bit better,

765
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 7: get a little bit more physical. But from a standpoint

766
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:10,320
Speaker 7: of movement size, you know, the ability, it's it's all there.

767
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 7: He showed it in Indy, he showed it at Utah

768
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 7: against elite competition. And so Spencer, if I know, is

769
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 7: a guy that you can't leave off this chart of

770
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 7: Baldi's big ballers.

771
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,439
Speaker 1: All these guys were talking about our first round picks,

772
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 1: probably high first round picks. Give me a total wild card,

773
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 1: Baldi who stood out in Indianapolis.

774
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:31,280
Speaker 4: Did you think helped his cause.

775
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 7: It's starting for me at the Senior Bowl and watching

776
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 7: Taylor Green. Tom honestly, like he's almost six foot six.

777
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 7: He's got over forty starts at Boise State in Arkansas.

778
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 7: But you know, he like we don't see play at

779
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 7: quarterbacks running a four to three six.

780
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,959
Speaker 8: Maybe Lamar maybe Kyler back when they were.

781
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,879
Speaker 7: Coming out of college could run a four to three six,

782
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 7: you know, and then you could jump like that. The

783
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 7: explosiveness right here, and he had a big arm. You know,

784
00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 7: he's got to learn how to.

785
00:37:58,680 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 4: Throw the ball.

786
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 8: He's got a I think that.

787
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 7: Somebody drafts him and really works with them and really

788
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 7: coaches them up.

789
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 8: The talent is there.

790
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 7: Now there's a lot that he needs to work on,

791
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 7: but you know, latering throws and not just throwing fastballs.

792
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 7: But from a talent standpoint, Taylor Green is a guy that.

793
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 8: Just really popped.

794
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:19,759
Speaker 7: He popped in some of these throws, some of the

795
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 7: throws down the field, the outs, like he's got he's

796
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 7: got a cannon on him and he can throw it

797
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 7: a mile. I just think he's got to get refined

798
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 7: and get well coached and maybe we could find a

799
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:32,959
Speaker 7: real star in Taylor Green.

800
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,439
Speaker 8: Down the road, it.

801
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: Was the All Star Games, then the Combine, the third

802
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: prong and the pre draft process is the pro Day,

803

Speaker 1: here Indiana, which is where we will see Fernando Mendoza

808
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 1: working out right there prol first when the only top

809
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,720
Speaker 1: players do not work out in Indy, we'll see him

810
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 1: in Indy.

811
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 3: The other one, the free agency frenzy, is here. An

812
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 3: NFL Network is your home for all the signings starting

Speaker 3: Every deal, every trade, every surprise. Wals Wall coverage on

815
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 3: all thirty two NFL teams. I hope I still have

816
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 3: a voice. Don't miss a move when it all kicks

817
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 3: off Monday, March night, and we now know at least

818
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 3: one team playing you know what, and take it.

819
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 2: Away, Judy, I got it, I got it. We'll start

820
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:48,360
Speaker 2: with this when the Falcons are playing a game in Madrid.

821
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 2: We've had we got nine international games so far. They've

822
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 2: named several of the participants. We know Madrid's get one

823
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 2: the Falcons are the team there.

824
00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 9: Here are their home opponents.

825
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 2: As we try to figure out who they potentially could play.

826
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 2: Doesn't sound like those three in blue, so you have

827
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 2: to pick from some of the others.

828
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 6: We flashed it.

829
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 9: Quickly for a second.

830
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 2: Our own Mike Garifolo, who is off today hanging on

831
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 2: the beach drinking of my tie, posted this on the

832
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 2: old Twitter machine earlier today, essentially saying that Dallas Godder is.

833
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:20,720
Speaker 9: Likely a free agent.

834
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 2: Eagles would like to bring him back, but he is

835
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 2: going to have a market.

836
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 9: One of several key veteran tight ends.

837
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 2: We're going to get really nice deals, as is Tyler Biattis.

838
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,759
Speaker 2: The Commanders officially released him today. We've known him for

839
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 2: several days. They were going to release and I'm supposed

840
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:36,720
Speaker 2: to do it yesterday.

841
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:37,799
Speaker 9: Ended up doing it today.

842
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 4: I expect him.

843
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 2: To find a home relatively quickly, certainly starter caliber center.

844
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 2: And then the Seattle Seahawks issued some exclusive rights tenders

845
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 2: to Tyokatta and George Hollandi in an effort to show

846
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,240
Speaker 2: Tom that no transaction is too small.

847
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 1: A surprise in Chicago today Drew Dollman, their starting center,

848
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 1: a player who justin Yuruga was one of the top prizes.

849
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 1: Free Agency informed the team he plans to retire at

850
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,279
Speaker 1: the age of twenty seven. Certainly that could be your

851
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Biattish landing spot as that moves forward. Meanwhile, Nick

852
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: Folk is not retiring. Forty one years old. Cow looks

853
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,320
Speaker 1: like Marvin the Martian in that helmet to the most

854
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 1: accurate kicker in the NFL over the.

855
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:24,760
Speaker 4: Past three years.

856
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: He batch more a nineteenth NFL season and does plan

857
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 1: to continue kicking will be one of the top options available. Hey,

858
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 1: we got the insiders all this week seven pm Eastern Time,

859
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 1: tons of news, trades, potential signings.

860
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 4: Judy was trying to tell you all that, and then

861
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 4: her voice went away.

862
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 1: The Los Angeles Chargers Impact Fund celebrated Read Across America

863
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:55,239
Speaker 1: Day by hosting students from Inglewood's Sentinella Elementary School at

864
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:57,759
Speaker 1: the Bolt on Monday. The event was part of the

865
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 1: team's Bolts book Club initiative, which is designed to inspire

866
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,720
Speaker 1: a love of reading and increased literacy rates among children

867
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 1: across Southern California. Bolt's book Club was founded in twenty twenty,

868
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 1: posting over thirty literacy events and donating more than twenty

869
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:18,920
Speaker 1: five thousand books to title Ion schools across southern California.

870
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: The Browns of a new head coach. It's Todd Monkin.

871
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,920
Speaker 1: They might have the same quarterback, Shaduur Sanders. And for

872
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,439
Speaker 1: what it's worth, Chaduur for some reason got his new

873
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: coach a horsehead, and then Todd Monkin took a photo

874
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 1: of it and put it on social media. It's not

875
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:41,759
Speaker 1: a real horsehead. It appears to miss sculpture. I have

876
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 1: really no additional context beyond that. Maybe Ian or Judy

877
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 1: knows something more about the horse head. Judy, you got

878
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: a lot of juice left out. Let's first show you

879
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: ab duel Carter. You'll have a new number. But back

880
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,280
Speaker 1: to the horsehead, Judy, your thoughts.

881
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 3: I always thought the horsehead it was a Godfather thing,

882
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:02,479
Speaker 3: but I hope that's not.

883
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 6: What this is.

884
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 9: I thought it was a nice gift.

885
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 4: Goodbye,
