The 7 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,559 Speaker 1: implications and the ripple effects this will have on a 8 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: guy like Poka Nakua. We have a lot of people 9 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: saying that Tys Simpson, the Alabama quarterback, is going to 10 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: go in the first round.

I was looking kep because 21 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: got some interesting odds for the Masters and we can 22 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: gamble a little bit on the event. This weekend we 23 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: got the Sweet sixteen. We got a lot going on. 24 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: This is I like this time of year. I'm a 25 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: big fan of like late May, early April's. That's just 26 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: always a sweet spot for non football sports fans. Unless 27 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: you know, it's one hundred and ten degrees outside, which 28 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: is not that hot yet, but it's it's getting there. 29 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: So you guys know the drill. If you listen on 30 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: Collins podcast, make sure you subscribe to three and Out. 31 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: We have our own podcast feed and you can watch 32 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: all of our video up on Netflix. Appreciate everyone that 33 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: checks that out out. Let's just dive right into the 34 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: breaking news, the JSN contract, and I think the key 35 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: to a well run team and this is well established now. 36 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: Every GM says this. Every new coach in GM when 37 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: they're hired, says this. We want to draft and develop. 38 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: That is the goal. It's like the cliche, what do 39 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: you want your team to look like? Smart, tough, mentally, tough, 40 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: physical and violence. It's like every coach says the same thing. 41 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: Of course, you want to draft players and then extend them. 42 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: That is the goal. And John Schneider has a history 43 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: now with Pete Carroll in their first run of drafting 44 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: really well, extending a bunch of homegrown guys and building 45 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: a great team. And I got a lot of questions 46 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: from a lot of Seattle fans of we have all 47 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: this money, why is he being so conservative? And a 48 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: wise man told me, a wise wise man, super Bowl 49 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: winning general manager, and listen, I'm very guilty of this 50 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: because like most and like most people just on television, 51 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: we just cap space, cap space, the salary cap. And 52 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: he's like John, there is a big difference between salary cap, 53 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: the salary cap space, and cash spending. No one ever 54 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: talks about the cash spending. You know, us, the gms 55 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: and the person we don't own the team. We get 56 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: this thing called a budget. You know most of us 57 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: right in the real world, nonsports, if you run a 58 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 1: podcast company, if you run a finance company, if you 59 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: run an HVAC company, you got budgets, right, You either 60 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: got monthly budgets, quarterly budgets, and it's actual cash. Like 61 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: we were, don't have salary caps. If I want to 62 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: build this office, it's gonna cost you forty seven thousand 63 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: dollars and you gotta pay for it, right, there's no like. Well, 64 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: the salary cap this year on the ability for you 65 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: to spend on podcast equipment is ninety eight thousand dollars. Now, 66 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: you don't have to spend it, right, but that is 67 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: the maximum amount you can spend to compete with the 68 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: other podcast. It's somehow we live, right, But in football 69 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: and in basketball they have caps. Right, we could argue 70 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: whether that's fair or not. I think it's so lucrative 71 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: now for everyone involved. It's hard to bitch and moan 72 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: about anything, but the actual money coming out is what 73 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: you need to look for. And when Kobe Bryant and 74 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker signed with other teams, the Bears and the Chiefs, 75 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: they got to combine twenty five million dollars in signing bonuses. 76 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,679 Speaker 1: And when you get a signing bonus, whether that's five million, 77 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: ten million, thirty million, that is money paid within two 78 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: weeks of you signing the contract. You get that cash immediately. 79 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,239 Speaker 1: So Jackson Smith and Jigba just got a thirty five 80 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 1: million dollars signing bonus, meaning thirty five million dollars now 81 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: depending on taxes, Luckily, the Washington millionaire income tax isn't 82 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 1: coming for years, so no state income tax profitable to 83 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: be Jackson Smith and Jigba in the next cup weeks, 84 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 1: he's going to get thirty five million dollars. And you 85 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 1: have to work within the constant the you know, the 86 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: the confines of whatever budget you're given. And listen, Seattle, 87 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: they have some ownership, they're in flux that they are 88 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: currently in the process of selling the team. And I 89 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: also think like Jackson Smith is a cornerstone piece. He 90 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: is an elite player. It was pretty clear early, but 91 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: this year once they got Sam Darnold, what were his 92 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: stats this year? One hundred and nineteen catches, almost eighteen 93 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: hundred yards and ten touchdowns. And honestly, when you watch 94 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: them at the times, you look like Jerry fucking Rice. 95 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: He's the type guy that you got to break off. 96 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: And because of the position he plays, it ain't cheap. 97 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: You know, a couple of years ago, Brandon Auk, who's 98 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: catching seventy five balls a year, got thirty million dollars 99 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: a year and seventy five guarantee. So the number at 100 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: wide receiver is astronomical. And when you are as good 101 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: as this guy, he's twenty four years old. He's a 102 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: homegrown guy. So you not only know the player how 103 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: he fits in the scheme, but the person, which clearly 104 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: they feel really good about. It costs a premium, and 105 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: this is about budgeting how much you're actually gonna spend 106 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: in cash for your team. And it's why you let 107 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: guys go on the margins, even if they're good players, 108 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: even if they're the super Bowl MVP or one of 109 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: the better defensive backs in your conference. Well you go, 110 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: we got other defensive backs that on our own team 111 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: that we think are better and are gonna cost a 112 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 1: lot of money. And this is why I defended him 113 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 1: for letting some guys walk that. It was like, yeah, 114 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: because you were going to make a payment like this. 115 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: Last year they extended Charles Cross the left tackle Google. 116 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: How much that contract was wasn't cheap. But here's the thing. 117 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: You know, when you hit on guys in the draft, 118 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: and they have had an incredible run now in the 119 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: first round of hitting on high end talent at certain positions, 120 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: it's even more expensive. If Jackson Smith and Jigba had 121 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: been the equivalent of he is an elite player at 122 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: tight end or linebacker. Maybe you could have kept some 123 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: other guys because it would have been cheaper, but because 124 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: of the position he plays, it's still expensive. And I've 125 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: been saying this about Sam Darnold. Everyone's like, well, Sam 126 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: Darnold's not making much relative to other positions, makes a shitload, 127 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: makes it over thirty million dollars a year. It's sign 128 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: one hundred million dollar contract. And when you play quarterback 129 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: usually see every penny like it's not nothing. It's not 130 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: sixty million, it's not Dak Prescott, but it's not like 131 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: some random guard making ten million dollars a year. And 132 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: here's the other thing. They are on a run right 133 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: now that is pretty incredible. Going back to Charles Cross 134 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: whatever five years ago, they've gone a run with Once 135 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: they made the trade for Denver and they got the 136 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: fifth overall pick, they drafted Devin Witherspoon, who is going 137 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: to get a massive contract, and they draft him to 138 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: pick five, and then later in that first round they 139 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: drafted Jackson Smith. So the year before they got Charles 140 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: Cross extended left hack. Then they get two more Cornerstone players, 141 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: and then over the course of the next two years. 142 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: Byron Murphy, last time I checked pretty damn good player 143 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: plays defensive tackle and he can rush the passer. Google 144 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: how much those guys make. It's not cheap. And then 145 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: last year their first couple picks. I mean, Zabel's gonna 146 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: be one of the best guards in the league for 147 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: a decade, and Emon Worri looks like some version of 148 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilton, which you can look up how much Kyle 149 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: Hamilton makes. It's not nothing. So I think this is 150 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: part when you run a team, And this is the 151 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: difference now that John is in charge then when Pete 152 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: was in charge, because when coaches are in charge, they 153 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: are just consumed with the here and now that they 154 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: can't fathom letting a guy walk. It's like, I don't 155 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: want to lose Kobe Bryant. Well, we gotta pick and 156 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: choose who we keep. We don't have an unlimited amount 157 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: one of salary cap space, but two of cash that 158 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: we can spend, so we gotta be smart with how 159 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: we utilize it. And obviously they spend a lot of money. 160 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like Seattle by any means is cheap. 161 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: But this notion that it's like you can just pay everybody, 162 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: and that's a very sexy thing for former players to 163 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: do on television. That's not how these organizations operate. Right 164 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: back to again, you think Howie Roseman wanted to lose 165 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: Jalen Phillips, of course not. He traded for him with 166 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 1: the hopes of extending him, and it got to a 167 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: point of like, well, we can't pay eighty million dollars guaranteed, 168 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen. And I think when you get 169 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: these massive, massive contracts, and most good teams have a 170 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: quarterback making a lot of money, you gotta be smart 171 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: with how you invested, and you've got to have conviction 172 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: when you invest in these players, because you're not just 173 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: investing in the player on the field, You're investing in 174 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,559 Speaker 1: the person. And when you invest in the right people 175 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: who are great players, you can sustain winning. That's typically 176 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: how it works. It's why I would bet on Seattle, 177 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: especially because I think we all agree they have an excellent, 178 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: high end coach. They're not going anywhere. It's like they 179 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 1: have a bunch of young, good players all under contract. 180 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: Now they're making more money, meaning they're gonna have to 181 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: continue to draft well, especially in the later rounds. But 182 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: they have an elite general manager, a high end Super 183 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: Bowl winning coach, and a bunch of high end young talent. 184 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: Now where it gets difficult is over the next the 185 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: course of the next couple of years, as you give 186 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: out these massive contracts, it puts more and more pressure 187 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: on hitting third, four to fifth, sixth round players because 188 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: you need, you know, million dollar labor. Right. Not everyone 189 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: can make twenty thirty forty million dollars on your team. 190 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: That's not even possible. And I think Seattle is just 191 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: in very, very good position. I said this when the 192 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: story broke that Paul Allen's kids, we're going to sell 193 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: the team. I typically when these teams come for sale, 194 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,079 Speaker 1: they are they're great buys because you're buying into the NFL, 195 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: but they're typically not in great position. Right. It's like, 196 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: I don't know about the coach, don't have much talent, 197 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: need a major overhaul. I don't think I can't remember 198 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 1: a situation being much better in this talent coach GM 199 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: all under contract, ready to roll. You're in a tough division. 200 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: You got McVeigh, you got Shanahan, you got the minor 201 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: league Arizona Cardinals. But I just think Seattle is so 202 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: well run. And I also think this shows to all 203 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: the fans that were like, what are we doing? Why 204 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: are we not more aggressive? This is why because this 205 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: shit's expensive, and Jaysen now it's it's a little sometimes 206 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 1: these contracts in the NFL could be like a little confusing. 207 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: There's a lot going on. They're not just like you know, 208 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: in basketball, it's very black and white. Right, you sign 209 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: a four year, two hundred million dollars deal forty million, 210 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: forty five, fifty to fifty five or whatever the you know, 211 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 1: it's just it's very cut and dry on a yearly basis. 212 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: Even in baseball there are opt outs. But like Kyle Tucker, 213 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: the dude from the Cubs, signs with the Dodgers four year, 214 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: two hundred and forty million, sixty million dollars a year, 215 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: opt outs after year two and three. Right, it's this 216 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: is like guaranteed money, and it's like, well, he actually 217 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: has two years and twenty six million dollars left on 218 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: his rookie contract, so that actually is part of this contract. 219 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: That money was guaranteed because clearly they were gonna pick 220 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: up a fifth year option. So it's not like one 221 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty million dollars in New guaranteed money. It's 222 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: probably like one hundred million dollars in new guaranteed money, 223 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: but it's a lot and clearly they love this guy. Uh. 224 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: Obviously the positive momentum of coming off the Super Bowl 225 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: in him being a just dominant player for him and 226 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: making play after play after play and listen, like, he's 227 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: not Randy Moss, right, he doesn't look like Terrell Owens, 228 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 1: but when you watch him, like his shit just translates. 229 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: When you can get open in the NFL. Uh, And 230 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: obviously you've got great ball skills in you're fast, like 231 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: that translates because we've seen a lot of guys that 232 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: aren't as fast, that aren't great route runners, that are 233 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: the contested catch guys. Sometimes in the prime of their 234 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: careers they're a Kwon Boldener DeAndre Hopkins, and sometimes over 235 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: the first couple years they're Keon Coleman. It's like, I 236 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 1: don't know about this one. I don't quite see this one. 237 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 1: You know. It's why I remember when DeVante Adams came out, 238 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: it was like, you know, he's a little slow, he's 239 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: only a four or five five guy. It's like, yeah, 240 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: well just watch him get open, and what does he 241 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: do He's a great route runner, he has great ball skills, 242 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: he has a great football IQ and understanding of playing 243 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 1: in space. Even Travis Kelce at this point in time 244 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: in his career, I know he plays tight end, but 245 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: he's basically a slot receiver. Is his feel for routes 246 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: and getting open. It's like you can't teach that, and 247 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: that's what separates people in the NFL. Listen, the impact 248 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 1: today is like what about Puka Nakua, because that's the 249 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: first thing I thought of, is like, well, do the 250 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: rams because I think it's fair, like you would just 251 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: copy and paste this contract. A little different because Puka 252 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: wasn't a first round pick, meaning that like he only 253 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: has one year left on his rookie deal later around pick, 254 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: so he doesn't have a fifth year option. It's a 255 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: little more complicated. But I think Mike Garafalo said, don't 256 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 1: expect that to happen anytime soon. And listen, there were 257 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: some weird things that happened off the field. Felt like 258 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: a little immature. It's easy for me to say, as 259 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: some forty year old guy, like the fuck is this streamer? 260 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: But like I don't pretend to like always understand every 261 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: single world clearly like he's hanging out with people I 262 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: couldn't point out of a lineup. Doesn't mean that they're 263 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: not popular and cool in his circles, but you could 264 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: tell a couple times like he was a pain in 265 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: Shawn's ass. And I think anytime that you want to 266 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: break a guy off, especially at like historic numbers, the 267 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: last thing you want them to be is a problem. 268 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: And you look at Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase, like 269 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: those guys were kind of easy contracts. Not easy in 270 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: the sense of like there's a lot of money, but 271 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: like we're pretty comfortable with these humans, And that's the 272 00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: question with Pooka, like how comfortable are the ramps? And 273 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: I say this all the time, like I don't judge 274 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: coaches or gms off what they say unless you know 275 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: them personally, and they're like off record, but anything they 276 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: say publicly because they always beat around the bush, they're 277 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: very careful. We keep negotiations in house. I judge you 278 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: on your actions, and it's gonna be very telling how 279 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: they handle this. They're either gonna offer him a massive 280 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: contract and he's gonna sign it right in a number 281 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: in this world in this vicinity, or they're gonna play 282 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: it out, and if they play it out, it shows 283 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: you like they're a little uncomfortable right now. It's the 284 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: Jalen Carter thing. There is no disputing and I listen, 285 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: I think people would argue, like when you watch Pooka, 286 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: I told my buddy's a wide receiver coach in the league, Like, 287 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever seen a player like him. 288 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: He's like, I honestly, I've been doing this for decades. 289 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: He's very unique, right he won. One of his skills 290 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: is like he literally plays harder than everyone else. And 291 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: his ability to be like break tackles like he's you know, 292 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: Earl Campbell is pretty crazy? Is that sustainable? And that's 293 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: where I think the Rams are in kind of this 294 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: weird spot of are they gonna give him a hundred 295 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 1: and twenty million dollars guaranteed? Because if you're Puka side 296 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: and you're representing him, like you basically just said, that's 297 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: this is where the number starts, like this is it? 298 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: And I mean anytime you get one hundred and twenty 299 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: million dollars in guarantees, you know, Michael Parson's just got 300 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: what one hundred and forty five million dollars in guarantees. 301 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: I mean, these are historic numbers. It is a great time, 302 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: a great time to play premium positions in the NFL. 303 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: Pass rushers, interior, exterior tackles, wide receivers, corners, I mean, 304 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: obviously quarterbacks. But the money that's flying, I mean, this 305 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: is NBA, Major League Baseball money flying around. So you 306 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: know before it was like only the quarterbacks. I don't know. 307 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: I see a lot of these guys getting paid thirty 308 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: to forty million dollars now. I mean, hell, Linderbaum the 309 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: Center just got twenty seven million dollars a year. So 310 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: it's just if you're a great play, your team's either 311 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: gonna extend your or you gonna hit the market like 312 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: Jalen Phillips and have people bidding on your services. And 313 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you look and you've got eighty 314 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: million dollars in guarantees. Like, oh, he's a twenty sac guy. No, 315 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: he's a single digit guy. Been banged up, but we're 316 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: betting on the come. Uh So, props to JSN, props 317 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: to Seattle, and you gotta be feeling pretty good. It's 318 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: gonna be fascinating to see what happens with Pooka. I 319 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 1: saw today. Florio was like, this makes George Pickens's number. Like, 320 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,959 Speaker 1: I don't know if George has much in common with 321 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,479 Speaker 1: these human beings, with JSN or Pooka, but like it 322 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 1: does complicate long term negotiations. I have a hard time 323 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: blaming Jerry, Like, I'm not offering you a hundred million 324 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: dollars guaranteed, but uh, we'll play out the franchise stag. 325 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 1: You know we'll do that now.

The story that's been percolating 361 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: is Ty Simpson. And obviously we're gonna talk a lot 362 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: of draft coming up. People like Middlecuff. Give me your mock. 363 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know if I'm breaking down guards 364 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: with like the fourteenth pick, but I will talk quarterbacks. 365 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: I will talk Jeremiah Love. I also think the wide 366 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: receiver now, I think the wide receivers in this class 367 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: talking about like no one views like a Jamar Chase 368 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:25,120 Speaker 1: or a Julio Jones, AJ Green, you know, Ceedee Lamb 369 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: like guys that are You're very comfortable to DeVante Smith 370 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: a couple of years back taking in like the top fifteen. 371 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: But if you really like a guy and you need 372 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: a wide receiver, taking a guy in the teams or 373 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 1: the twenties, you get him for really cheap for a 374 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: couple of years. Now, you've got to be right for 375 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: that to matter, right, He's got to be a starter, 376 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: an impact player. But if you draft a guy in 377 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,640 Speaker 1: the first couple of rounds, you were getting guy, if 378 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: he becomes a Pro bowler, that's gonna be worth one 379 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: hundred plus million dollars in guaranteed for a relatively cheap contract. 380 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: You know that. This is why I'm always a proponent one. 381 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: You build your team in the trenches, offensive line, defensive line, 382 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: but you also get discounts. Right if you take one 383 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: of the pass rushers really high, Reese or Bailey, or 384 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: one of the tackles, the Miami kid, the Utah kid, 385 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: and they become like a high end starter for you 386 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: giving him like a thirty forty million dollar rookie contract, 387 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: Like that's that's a steal. You know. It's kind of 388 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: the pushback. I'm like, listen, Jeremiah Love is an elite player, right, 389 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: He's There would be many I'm not talking to even 390 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: media people, I'm talking in the NFL. They'll be like, 391 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: this is the best player in the draft. But if 392 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:38,959 Speaker 1: it becomes like, hey, I think I'd get a Pro 393 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: Bowl defensive lineman or a Pro Bowl running back, Well, 394 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: the running back you're giving him a forty million dollar contract. 395 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 1: Look at the running back contracts. It's not like they're 396 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 1: making one hundred million dollars. So you're paying kind of 397 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: already a premium. Now is he'd better be elite and 398 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: you're passing on a pass rusher who would be a 399 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 1: steal like you would be saved money relative to his position. 400 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,679 Speaker 1: So I think that comes into play, and this speaks 401 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: to the quarterback right. I've been a long time believer 402 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: in this quarterback inflation, and it was really the group. 403 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: It probably started with Russell Wilson, which I think gave 404 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 1: credence to the fact that like small guys could play. 405 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: It's like, hey, you don't need to be Peyton Manning 406 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: or Tom Brady. You can be five to ten. You 407 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: can be five to eleven. And as we found out, no, 408 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: you really can't like I mean short to me in 409 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 1: the as a quarterbacks like six to two. There are 410 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: some outliers. Perty's a little under six to one. He's 411 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: a good player. But we've seen guys, you know, Kyler 412 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: just struggle you can't see, and you know, we've seen 413 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: Russell really struggle as he got older and he couldn't 414 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: run around anymore because can't see now. Ty Simpson to me, physically, 415 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:57,360 Speaker 1: there are some like looking at his athletic profile six 416 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: to one, little shade over six one, two hundred and 417 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: ten pounds, I would say average Ish athlete. Didn't run 418 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: or anything at the combine, Maybe you will at the 419 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,199 Speaker 1: pro day. I think there are some parallels with Perty, 420 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: just physically, right arm strength. I think if you like them, timing, 421 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: rhythm like that. Pretty was a four year starter. So 422 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: the reps Perty got in college were dwarf. Ty Simpson 423 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 1: started one year at Alabama. And here's the other thing. 424 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: Perty went in the seventh round. The last pick of 425 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: the draft was mister irrelevant. So when you're drafted on 426 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 1: the third day as Nuss Myers and Drew Allers and 427 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: Carson becksar a lot of times. And I was going 428 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 1: to these forty nine ers camps at the time, Brock 429 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: Perdy had to win, let me repeat, win the third 430 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: string job for the forty nine Ers had to win 431 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,160 Speaker 1: the job, which he did. I forget the quarterback they had. 432 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: They had four quarterbacks coming into camp, Trey Lance, Jimmy Garoppolo, Perdy, 433 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: and one other guy. But the other guy they had 434 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: guaranteed a salary at a couple millions, and they either 435 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: cut him or traded him right before the end of 436 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: training camp, which kind of was a light into like 437 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: brock Perty's probably gonna make the team. And after he did. 438 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: I remember Trent Williams like a year ago, gave an 439 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: interview that was like I went up to Purdy before 440 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: week one and I said, I don't think you realize 441 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 1: how incredible of accomplishment what you just did was as 442 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:22,919 Speaker 1: the last pick in the draft, when we already had 443 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of quarterbacks on the roster, one guy being 444 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: the third overall pick, another guy being the guy that 445 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: had been our starter for years, and another guy that 446 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers had paid and they chose you 447 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: for that spot to make the team. But again he 448 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: started as a third stringer and needed broken ankles and 449 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:42,159 Speaker 1: broken feet to ever get on the field. So to me, historically, 450 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: like Kirk Cousins, a lot of these guys that were 451 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: drafted a little bit later, they got an easier landing 452 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: spot in the start of their career when you overdraft 453 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: in this quarterback inflation, and listen, everything is really expensive now, right. 454 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,640 Speaker 1: I was talking to a buddy today about plane flights, 455 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: plane flights just you know, depending on where you live, 456 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 1: you could find for whatever number you got pretty accustomed 457 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 1: to do, especially if you're my age and you've been 458 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: flying for a couple decades. Hey, you know, I can 459 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: always find a cheap flight for a couple hundred bucks 460 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: to fly here, to fly there. Obviously, there are some 461 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 1: flights that are always a little bit more expensive, but 462 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 1: now like the bare minimum flight of what you were 463 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 1: used to, like, you almost have to double it, and 464 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: it's part of the deal. Most things, beside televisions, for 465 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: whatever reason, are way more expensive now than they used 466 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: to be. But I still don't understand how the profile 467 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: of a player has changed, Like he either has the 468 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: attributes or he doesn't. We have seen a lot of 469 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 1: guys historically that were one year starters blow up in 470 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:49,439 Speaker 1: our face. Like playing and reps in college have proven 471 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,439 Speaker 1: to be a really big deal. Just look at all 472 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: the top guys. Right, Joe Burrow, somewhat of an outlier, right, 473 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: didn't play that much, was a multiple year starter, but 474 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: like by a second year he threw sixty plus touchdowns 475 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: and they were the greatest team we'd ever seen. But 476 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: most guys Patrick Holmes multiple year starter, Josh Allen multiple 477 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: year starter, Lamar Jackson multiple year starter. And then you 478 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: get into the Purdies, the Dacks, the Cousins. These guys 479 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: had a ton of reps. So if you're talking about 480 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: Jared Goff, three year starter, if you're talking about the 481 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,439 Speaker 1: non super high draft picks and you go to the 482 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: middle rounds, they played a lot of football. So listen, 483 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm not disputing that Ty Simpson is some scrub, but 484 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: to me, historically guys like that went like past pick 485 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: seventy five and the other thing that allowed that guy 486 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: to do one it brought more teams into play, typically 487 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: the good teams. So you could go and have a 488 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: soft landing spot and got to sit, got to learn, 489 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: got to get more reps in practice, got to play 490 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: a bunch of preseason reps. When you get drafted in 491 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: the top thirty or forty picks, the pressure on you 492 00:26:55,320 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 1: to either start immediately or like once you get your opportunity, 493 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: like let's say even the Rams picked them, you better 494 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: be damn good because if Stafford retires, their goal next 495 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: year would be to win the NFC West, would be 496 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: to win playoff games like that. The bar is fucking high. 497 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: And if one of the shitty teams that needs a 498 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: quarterback like Arizona the Jets, you know, one of those 499 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: type teams draft you godspeed, because I would bet on 500 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: you to fail. So I think this Ty Simpson talk 501 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,679 Speaker 1: is just classic quarterback inflation. Now I'm a little jaded. 502 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: Maybe I need to go back and watch watch him 503 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: a bunch down the stretch of the season. I know 504 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: he's a little banged up. I didn't think he was 505 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: that talented. I have a hard time with guys with 506 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: limited traits who just haven't played that much to take high. 507 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: Like I've just seen too many Mac Jones, too many 508 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: Kenny Picketts. The pressure on those guys to immediately compete 509 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: within a couple of years to be a top ten quarterback, 510 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, you're like, is this 511 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 1: guy even a starter? And then you get in weird spots. 512 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: So I don't know. I mean, I have a hard 513 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: time seeing it. I think good gms would not draft 514 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: this guy in the first round. Could be wrong. Maybe 515 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 1: a good team ends up taking them. But where I'm 516 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 1: sitting based on what I've seen to me historically, like 517 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: he's a Day three pick. Some other stories around the NFL. 518 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: You know, I think sometimes this back to the JSN thing. 519 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: These contracts, they're very they're confusing, and we had learned 520 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: Travis Kelce signed like a one year twelve million deal 521 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: with the chances to win fifty or make fifteen million, 522 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden it comes out today 523 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 1: he got three years like fifty plus million dollars. I 524 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: don't think the guarantees of the contract changed, like they're 525 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: guaranteeing them one year a lot like Mike Evans. It 526 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: was like Mike Evans got three years sixty million dollars. 527 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: It turns out he got one year sixteen million. The 528 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: reason you give a multi year contract is because of 529 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 1: the signing bonus and the guaranteed money. The money that 530 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: you pay up front you can amortize over the course 531 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: of the life of the deal, and even if the 532 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: guy retires or you cut him, you can push the 533 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: money back and manipulate the salary cap. So I think 534 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: we make a bigger deal over sometimes when these numbers 535 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: come out, like the big numbers are the big numbers, 536 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: like Jalen Phillips. The Panthers are in bed with him 537 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: for a couple of years, Like, they're gonna need him 538 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: to be good if there. If he's not, it would 539 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: blow up in their face. Right, Remember when the Buffalo 540 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: Bills gave von Miller a bunch of money after he 541 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: had won. He had been on the Super Bowl team 542 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: with the La Rams and like he had a sack 543 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:28,959 Speaker 1: in every playoff game. He looked really good and then 544 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: it just he got injured for him and it was 545 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: a disaster. I mean, they were carrying a number for 546 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: him last year, Like he got to be very careful 547 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: with that with the signing bonuses and guaranteed money. But 548 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: I think the Kelsey thing is more like for show 549 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: than it is in reality the impact of what it's 550 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: gonna do to like their books. One thing that I 551 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: found kind of interesting and listen, I'm buddies with Daniel 552 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: Jeremiah will have to have him on over the next 553 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, is you know NFL network. It's crazy. 554 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 1: I maybe I'm the wrong person ass, but historically I've 555 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,479 Speaker 1: watched a lot of NFL Network. I used to watch 556 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 1: back when I was living in the Bay, a lot 557 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: of NBA TV. I watch a ton of Golf channel. 558 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: I mean a ton of Golf channel. But the reality 559 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: is these networks don't do that well. Now the NFL 560 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: network carry some games. NBA TV, I don't even know 561 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: if NBA TV is still around used to carry games. 562 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: Golf Channel carries events on Thursday and Friday and sometimes 563 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 1: Saturday and Sunday on the weekends, so they have some 564 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: inventory of the sport. But a lot of it is 565 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: like people talking bs and hanging out right, and for 566 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 1: whatever reason, they don't do that well. And part of 567 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 1: it is the cord cutting, and you know, habits have changed. 568 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: But I've always been a consumer, Like throughout the course 569 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: of my life, I was right down their wheelhouse. I 570 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: was like, if I would have liked tennis, I probably 571 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: would have watched Tennis channel. I like individual channels on 572 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: the sport, even if some of their stuff stupid. I'm 573 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: not really getting up watch a good Morning Football though. 574 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: I like Schreeger and Kyle Brandt, But like I think 575 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: they've they've tried to do good programming, but it hasn't worked, 576 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: and they offloaded it. The NFL wanted out of the business, 577 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 1: and disneylands it, and now there's been a lot of 578 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 1: talk of like, you know, what's gonna happen the other 579 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: stories about rap sheets contract being up. It's like, is 580 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: ESPN gonna want schefter and rap sheet or Schefter is like, 581 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to grind my whole life. 582 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: I'm almost sixty years old. I want to be breaking 583 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: stories for the next twenty years. I want to spend 584 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: time with my family. So who knows how it all 585 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 1: plays out, but for an office Sports reported that the 586 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: NFL network this year is gonna carry the draft like normal, 587 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 1: because I was like, what's gonna happen here? So ESPN 588 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: will have their draft coverage, McAfee will have draft coverage, 589 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: and the NFL network will have draft coverage. But I 590 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: think there's a chance this is the last year that 591 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 1: the NFL network like it does now ever, just has 592 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 1: its own draft coverage with Rich Eyes and Daniel Jeremiah, 593 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: Charles Davis kind of that crew. Now, they've kind of 594 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: been cross pollinating over the course of the last couple 595 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: of years. You know, Klatt's been doing some stuff. But 596 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: I would get ready for this all to be under 597 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: the one umbrella in twenty twenty seven and they can 598 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: utilize NFL Network for preseason games and other stuff. I 599 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: don't think the channel's going away. But I was always 600 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: a fan of like going back and forth, going back 601 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: to when DJ first got the gig with Mayok to 602 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: when Gruden used to be on the booth screaming about 603 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: Johnny football. I think we are headed toward and this 604 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: is just kind of the way society works of just 605 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: like one like one version, it's just gonna be one desk. Now. 606 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: I think McAfee will always have his thing going because 607 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 1: it's a different vibe. But I don't think that rich 608 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 1: Eisen going up against I don't even know Rhys Davis 609 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: who have Greenberg. Maybe rich Eisen just goes into that 610 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: seat and starts hosting on ESPN in twenty twenty seven 611 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: with Daniel Jeremiah melkiper some version of that. But I 612 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: think we should enjoy it while we have it, because 613 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: we don't have it from a longer. One story I 614 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: found pretty interesting. I didn't know much about this guy, 615 00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: Owen Heinike linebacker for Oklahoma. He went to the Combine 616 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: and worked out, and he is currently suing the NCAA 617 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: for a year of eligibility stories. Pretty interesting. Started his 618 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: career in twenty twenty one at Ohio State, but he 619 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: didn't play football. He played lacrosse that he transferred Oklahoma, 620 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: where he redshirted in twenty two, played twenty three, twenty four, 621 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: twenty five, And you know, goes, I've only played three 622 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 1: years of football that one year of lacrosse, so he's 623 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: basically suing for that one year of lacrosse not to count, 624 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: which doesn't necessarily bother me. I was like, yeah, I'm 625 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: not gonna get caught up in that. I have no 626 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 1: problem hope he wins. I've always said this, though, you 627 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 1: should be able to if you do have the eligibility, 628 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: go to the combine, go through the process and see, like, 629 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: let that thing play out. And then after it's like, hey, 630 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: you know, we told you were gonna be a second 631 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: round pick. Maybe you're going to be a fourth round 632 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: pick or vice versa. We thought you were gonna be 633 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: a third day pick, but I think you're a locked 634 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: second rounder now. And I think that can influence the 635 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,240 Speaker 1: decision on guys, because there used to be that rule 636 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: of the hard date either the middle of the end 637 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: of January or essentially you had to declared for the 638 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: draft and there was no turning back. Well, now that 639 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: the NCAA has little to note juice. I think we 640 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: need to rethink this, and I think there's been some 641 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: change over the course of the last couple of years. 642 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 1: But I would just have a pure get as many 643 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 1: people to the combine as possible, even if guys are like, 644 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:35,959 Speaker 1: you know, I'm probably not gonna come out, go there 645 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: and maybe you can hurt, you know, improve your stock, 646 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you can turn around. Now 647 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 1: college coaches wouldn't love this because you get a guy's like, hey, 648 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,240 Speaker 1: we think we're keeping this guy. All of a sudden 649 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: he goes from a fifth rounder like hey, you're gonna 650 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: go on the second day of the draft, It's like, 651 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 1: fuck it, I'm out. And even with the nil so, 652 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: I I would imagine the way everything has been going 653 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: that Owen Heinike will be back at Opa Lahoma and 654 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: then potentially next year have another good season and being 655 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: the NFL in two years. Okay, before we died for 656 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 1: the mailbag, this segment is change of Scenery sponsored by 657 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: my friends at Toyota. And I saw Michael Pittman, who 658 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 1: I actually think twofold. I think the way he plays 659 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: is perfect for Pittsburgh was just traded this offseason from 660 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts after they gave Pierce the big deal 661 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: and two. I've seen a lot of guys like Michael Pittman. 662 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's these guys like to a tee, 663 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: but it does feel that Mike McCarthy has had a 664 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: lot of wide receivers that played in his style. You know, 665 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 1: going back to Jordan Nelson, you know, DeVante is different, 666 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: but just a big, physical guy, good route runner, great 667 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: at the point of you know, the catch point in 668 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 1: terms of making contested catches. I know he's had a 669 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: down year and some of my friends in the league 670 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 1: think he's slipping a little bit. I would expect for 671 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: him to have a bounce back season. I like their duo, 672 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: you know, Pittman and DK Metcalf, like pretty good one 673 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 1: two combination. Really probably two two's, but like that's solid, 674 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: you know, with the tight ends. If they can somehow 675 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: figure out the running back. Caleb Johnson, the running back 676 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: they drafted from Iowa, who's disaster last year. I liked 677 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 1: him in college, but maybe I was wrong. Problem is 678 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: they don't have a quarterback and Pittman today I saw 679 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: some quotes saying like, hey, I'm giving Rogers a space 680 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 1: he can still play. We still want him, but I 681 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:36,800 Speaker 1: have not talked to him, and I think sometimes this situation. 682 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:40,280 Speaker 1: Last year, I got it like you just left the Jets, 683 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 1: you were cut for the first time, but now you're 684 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 1: kind of putting this team unless there's some handshake deal 685 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:50,879 Speaker 1: under the table, like what are we waiting for? And 686 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: I would imagine that you make this trade, you either 687 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: are pretty confident he's coming back if you're the Steelers, 688 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,439 Speaker 1: because you don't acquire another wide receiver when you have 689 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 1: no quarterback. Right even last year, I thought it was 690 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,720 Speaker 1: like you're gonna acquire DK Metcalf, you don't have a quarterback. 691 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 1: But I think there was a little bit of another 692 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,399 Speaker 1: the table deal. I don't know if there is this year, 693 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 1: watching Aaron a couple of weeks ago go on McAfee, 694 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: but I think if if you get any feeling that 695 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: he's not coming back, you got to pull the trigger 696 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,240 Speaker 1: in trade for one of these backups, whether it's McKee 697 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: with the Eagles, who, according to reports, how he wants 698 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 1: a second round pick, whether it's Tyson with the Bears, which, 699 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 1: according to reports, the Bears would like a second day pick, 700 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: so they're not giving these backups away. Same thing with 701 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 1: Mac Jones. You need a starting quarterback. You can't have 702 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,720 Speaker 1: these two wide receivers, this bunch of guys on defense 703 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,799 Speaker 1: making a lot of money and no quarterback. What's the 704 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 1: point in acquiring Michael Pittman if you got no one 705 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 1: to throw to them? So I think the change of 706 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,280 Speaker 1: scenery for Michael Pittman. I like the fit with McCarthy, 707 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: Like if you would have told me you would have 708 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 1: added Pittman when McCarthy wasn't Dallas, this is awesome, Like 709 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: this is a good He likes these type players, but 710 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: got to get someone to throw them the ball.

Okay, 726 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: let's bang out some mailbag questions at John Middlecoff. At 727 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 1: John Middlecoff, is the Instagram fire in those dms very 728 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 1: easy to get involved in the show. Do you have 729 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 1: a way too early AFC playoff prediction? Think about it? Chiefs, Chargers, Broncos, Bills, Patriots, Texans, Jacks, Bengals, Ravens. 730 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 1: That's nine, not even counting the Steelers and maybe the 731 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: Colts with a healthy Indiana Jones. What's your way to 732 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: early seven? Why would go Bills in no order? Bills, Chargers, Denver, Texans, Bengals. 733 00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: I think the Chiefs, we just got to know about 734 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 1: Patrick health. I think they would be a major if 735 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 1: you tell me he's healthy, I think they'd go right 736 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 1: back in with a good draft. So I think the Jags. 737 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 1: I mean, they lost some players in free agency. ETN 738 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 1: was big for them. This Travis Hunter thing, how's that 739 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: gonna play out? Like? Could they trade Brian Thomas during 740 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: the draft, like their coaching staff, like their head coach. 741 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,239 Speaker 1: So I'm not at they don't have the first round 742 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,359 Speaker 1: pick this year because of the trade they made last year. 743 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 1: But to me, the Ravens and the Jags, I got 744 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: some questions. Ravens obviously from a personnel standpoint, lost a 745 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: bunch of players, got a brand new coaching staff. And 746 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: the Jags like, Okay, now you're kind of the hunted, 747 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: you know, last year they kind of got to be 748 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 1: the hunter, fly under the radar a little bit. I 749 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 1: think it's a little bit different when everyone's gunning for you. 750 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:52,719 Speaker 1: So I would say the Bills, Chargers, Broncos liked them 751 00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 1: a lot. Texans really liked them. If CJ can just 752 00:40:55,560 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: kind of find his stride, I gotta know who the 753 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 1: Steelers quarterback is the Pats, I don't know. I mean, 754 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 1: I they're gonna be solid because again, they got good coaches, 755 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: but the schedule was so easy last year. Who's he 756 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 1: throwing to? I think the AFC is pretty open like, 757 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 1: this is a this is if you're Josh Allen and 758 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 1: the Bills, like time is now, if you're Jim Harbaugh 759 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 1: and the Chargers, time is now. It's why Denver just 760 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 1: traded for Jalen Wata because like, we can win it now. 761 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 1: Still salty never answered my dumb aunt and Edwards question, 762 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 1: I did I think I said he'd played tight end. 763 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: Could a hypothetical billionaire and Niners fan buy Seattle and 764 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 1: tank their franchise? Or would the NFL step in? The 765 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:49,000 Speaker 1: Allen family would have to sign off, so the billionaire 766 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:54,399 Speaker 1: would have to be undercover. Why would you spend You'd 767 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:59,280 Speaker 1: have to be so filthy rich to spend ten eleven, 768 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 1: twelve billion dollars to ruin the team. The whole fun 769 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 1: of the team or to make any big purchase is 770 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 1: to be in charge and win, like why would you? 771 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 1: And the other thing is this is a gig that 772 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:20,800 Speaker 1: you are a very public figure. So local radio, national 773 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:27,399 Speaker 1: radio podcasts, you know, the athletic bloggers, all sorts of 774 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 1: people that talk about football would start shitting on you. You know, 775 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,959 Speaker 1: ask Jimmy Haslam what it's like in Cleveland. It ain't fun. 776 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,439 Speaker 1: It's way more fun to be like, we love this guy, 777 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 1: Like what this is awesome? So, I I guess in 778 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: a hypothetical world, sure, but that's I don't see that 779 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:51,799 Speaker 1: happening now the JSN is extended, who do you think 780 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 1: ends up with a bigger deal him or Puka? Given 781 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 1: his bit of a meathead? Do you think the Rams 782 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 1: have hesitation about handing out I say this earlier that 783 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: I just think that it's there's more risk there than 784 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: jays N. There's more risk there than obviously justin Jefferson. 785 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,959 Speaker 1: It just it's one of those where you're thinking about 786 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: it and anytime there are some guys like you don't 787 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 1: even think about it, like what's the cost? Boom pine Sewel, 788 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 1: this is what it costs? Right? You know you just 789 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: get great players in them. I'm trying to think of 790 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 1: like all time great players, uh in their prime right 791 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 1: now that you just Jamar Chase pine Sewell, you know 792 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 1: the Eagles with DeVante Smith. There are certain players it's like, okay, 793 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: this is a cost, Pam or let's get in front 794 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 1: of it, ceedee Lamb. You know Jerry always waited, but 795 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: typically Michael Parsons. Uh. So I think that I don't 796 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:52,919 Speaker 1: know my guess would be they end up just paying them, right, 797 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 1: because I do think it's risky. They're in win now mode. 798 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 1: They're trying to win the super Bowl this year. That 799 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 1: if you just make him play out another season on 800 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 1: the fourth year of his rookie deal, does that fuck 801 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: him up mentally if you're gonna do that when you 802 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 1: just trade him now? But the problem is they want them, 803 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,439 Speaker 1: so I don't know. I don't have a great feel 804 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: for that one. They're pretty quiet about it, you know, 805 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 1: And when their stories coming out that he's gonna have 806 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 1: to wait a minute, I think that shows you they're 807 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 1: working this. They're workshopping this thing as they should. I mean, 808 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 1: when you're talking these huge numbers, you better feel pretty confident, right, 809 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 1: you better feel pretty confident clearly. You know, the Cowboys, 810 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 1: for example, bizarre operation because of Jerry, but he's like, listen, 811 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,320 Speaker 1: I think they'd be the first tell you Mike is 812 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 1: a freak talent. He's a special pass rusher. But him 813 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,120 Speaker 1: getting fifteen sacks for us ain't gonna lead us to 814 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 1: the super Bowl and giving them all this money when 815 00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 1: we're already paying Dak and CD and we're gonna eventually 816 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 1: have to pay some of these other guys doesn't make 817 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,799 Speaker 1: that much sense. It actually makes more sense if we 818 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 1: can turn him into some first round picks and hit 819 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 1: those picks. So there was some logic behind it, right, 820 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: even if you disagree, like the whole point of a 821 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,319 Speaker 1: draft is to draft of Michael Parsons then extend him. 822 00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: The problem is Jerry had built the top heavy team 823 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 1: and their defense was so shitty that they had to pivot. 824 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to justify it because I think Mike, 825 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 1: I mean, there were times this year even maybe I 826 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 1: underestimated him a little bit. I don't think he's a 827 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,920 Speaker 1: perfect player by any means. But when you're that elite 828 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 1: as a pass rusher, you know, and you're on a 829 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 1: team that's winning a lot, which the Packers would have 830 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:47,080 Speaker 1: been up until he got injured, your value is extremely high. 831 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:50,320 Speaker 1: Question for the pod TB twelve looked pretty good playing 832 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:53,279 Speaker 1: flag football. He's now forty eight, it has been out 833 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 1: of the league for three years. Do you think he'd 834 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: have another Super Bowl by now if he had never 835 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 1: stopped playing. It's a good question. The one movie made 836 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 1: where he juked out the dude and threw the dime. 837 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 1: Listen Dan Marino can still throw a dot. I bet 838 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 1: Farv can still throw a ninety five million hour fastball. 839 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:16,839 Speaker 1: Tom Brady is gonna throw a beautiful ball until he's 840 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 1: seventy years old. Definitely in his sixties, no problem. I 841 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:25,239 Speaker 1: do think the way Tom plays is he couldn't move. 842 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:30,239 Speaker 1: So one thing that's hard to happen in Tampa is 843 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: like he didn't really want to get hit. So do 844 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:35,439 Speaker 1: I still think that Tom right now? If you could 845 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,560 Speaker 1: block form in a given game in like you know, 846 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 1: river style, could throw you three or four touchdowns and 847 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 1: win you a football game. Obviously, could win you a 848 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 1: playoff game. Could he do the course of a season? Though, 849 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:52,359 Speaker 1: Because if you don't want to get hit, it's really 850 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 1: hard to play when that's your style of sitting in 851 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 1: the pocket, especially now there's less good offensive lines, there's 852 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 1: more pass rushers. It's inevitable you're gonna get hit. So 853 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 1: I think that's the problem. Do I think he can 854 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:07,800 Speaker 1: still throw dots on a post route or the timing 855 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 1: on an out route, or chain shit the line of 856 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 1: scrimmage and gets you into the right like he could die. 857 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 1: He's playing everyone's playing checkers, he's playing chess. I just 858 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 1: think that that last year in Tampa, like he wanted 859 00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 1: no part of getting hit. Even Rogers this year and 860 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: again he had a broken hand. You can just tell it, like, 861 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,799 Speaker 1: do I want to get crushed right now? I'm worth 862 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:32,840 Speaker 1: hundreds of millions of dollars. I've already a champion, My 863 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 1: legacy's already set. It sucks all of a sudden, Danille 864 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 1: Hunter's coming around the edge. You're like, what am I doing? 865 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 1: There's a question about Kelsey. I saw the he signed 866 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:44,759 Speaker 1: the three year, fifty four million dollars deal. Is the 867 00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 1: Chiefs getting caught up in nostalgia? There's no way he 868 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 1: plays three more years again, I said this earlier. It's 869 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 1: about the extension of pushing the money down. You're just 870 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 1: manipulating the salary cap. That's all I think modern day 871 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 1: football is for the good teams manipulating the cap. I mean, 872 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 1: that's that's all it is with contracts, manipulating as much 873 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 1: as humanly possible, and pray that it doesn't bite you 874 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:13,080 Speaker 1: in the ass. I was listening to talk about the 875 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,880 Speaker 1: NC DOUBLEA and how NIL has changed the game for 876 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:19,320 Speaker 1: the big schools to get high end players. It seems 877 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 1: the new quote diamond in the rough is getting the 878 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 1: new suite coach, like Indie with Signetti. Even in the NFL, 879 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:30,280 Speaker 1: like Cohen with the Jacks, how do coaches find quote 880 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 1: diamond in the rough. Well, the difference in college than 881 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:40,520 Speaker 1: the pros is, like Liam Cohen's a good example in 882 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:45,319 Speaker 1: the NFL. If I sign you to whatever, a four 883 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 1: or five year contract for Liam Cohen, so he gets 884 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 1: five years, we'll say, you know, we'll say he got 885 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,320 Speaker 1: six or seven million dollars. It's not like he's making 886 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,799 Speaker 1: Andy Reid money. He's never been a head coach. A 887 00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 1: year in you're like, god, we got a gym, right, 888 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 1: we got something special. In college, Liam Cohen, all these 889 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 1: other colleges would have been trying to get his services, 890 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: like Kenny Dillingham with ASU. All of a sudden, Michigan's 891 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 1: like he has to turn them down. He has to 892 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:16,520 Speaker 1: turn down, like LSU's calling him, Florida's calling him. In 893 00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:19,480 Speaker 1: the pros, you don't have to worry about that. Once 894 00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 1: you got a guy, you just kind of keep them. 895 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 1: As long as you're winning, he's gonna stay and you 896 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 1: just extend him in college, like Signetti is a gem 897 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,759 Speaker 1: and he's a dominant coach. They pay him thirteen million dollars. 898 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 1: He's a highest paed coach in the country, so they 899 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 1: had to pay him a premium and do a good 900 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:37,160 Speaker 1: job building around him. So the difference in college is 901 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:41,359 Speaker 1: like coaches can leave. In the pros, you're kind of 902 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,719 Speaker 1: stuck if it's going well, Like Liam Cohen can't just 903 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 1: pimp out his services. Last year, when Kevin O'Connell wanted 904 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,920 Speaker 1: to raise he had to go through Glazer to be 905 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 1: like teams might trade for him. It's like, well, the 906 00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 1: Vikings would have to trade him, which clearly they're not 907 00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 1: gonna do. But why did he why did that story 908 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:04,640 Speaker 1: come out? He wanted a big race in college, Kevin O'Connell. 909 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 1: The equivalent would have been like Michigan's offering their head job, 910 00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:09,680 Speaker 1: Florida's offering him the head job, and they would have 911 00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:11,920 Speaker 1: to give him a race. Happens all the time in college, 912 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 1: so there are more variables in college with that. Obviously, 913 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:20,120 Speaker 1: everyone just wants the best coach possible. In the pros, 914 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 1: in the NBA, in the NFL, if you get the 915 00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:29,080 Speaker 1: right coach, you just keep them in. In college, if 916 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 1: you're not Ohio State or Oregon or something, and even Oregon, 917 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:35,400 Speaker 1: it's like Dan Lanning had to be like listen, I 918 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:38,600 Speaker 1: don't want to leave, and like Alabama's interested in him. 919 00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:42,319 Speaker 1: If he had wanted to go, he could have. So 920 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:46,239 Speaker 1: that's something that college you don't or in pros you 921 00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 1: don't need to mess with. And just because you leave 922 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 1: doesn't mean the grass is always greener. But like Matt 923 00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: Campbell at Iowa State, if that was the NFL, like 924 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 1: you know, whoever, they they don't have to worry about 925 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:06,800 Speaker 1: him leaving two Penn State, Ben Johnson is just their coach. 926 00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: Question for the bag. I'm twenty five years old. I'm 927 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:15,360 Speaker 1: set to have my first child in June. Congratulations Casey 928 00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 1: a boy having jacket forty? Are there any life lessons 929 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: that you've learned since you were twenty five that helped 930 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:28,080 Speaker 1: you prepare for fatherhood? Also, we live right next to Tennessee, 931 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 1: where I went to college, and I'm curious, is Tie 932 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 1: the best quarterback in the draft behind Mendoza? Is he 933 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:38,840 Speaker 1: better than Pavia and Aguilar? I talked to a scouting 934 00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 1: buddy today. Actually, I was in the car picking up 935 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,120 Speaker 1: my mother in law that I flew her out this 936 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:48,959 Speaker 1: week because My guy Jack is just he sees sleep 937 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:53,919 Speaker 1: as the enemy. And you can follow any procedure, any 938 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: book or podcast on ways to train sleep. But for 939 00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 1: this nine week old, he beats to his own drum. 940 00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:05,600 Speaker 1: And it has been Navy seal training around here. Someone 941 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: asked me recently, you know preparing, like, is it crazier 942 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,879 Speaker 1: than what you thought about. I'll be honest, I didn't 943 00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 1: really think much about it. I just I mean, I 944 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,399 Speaker 1: always wanted children. I just had to meet the right 945 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:21,360 Speaker 1: person and be stable in my life and be in 946 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:23,319 Speaker 1: a position where I could do it. But I never 947 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:26,360 Speaker 1: thought about what it was actually gonna be. Like most 948 00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:30,160 Speaker 1: of my friends or brothers, you're around their kids, but 949 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: you're not like every single day when they're infants, right 950 00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 1: or young babies. It is just that there is no preparation, really, 951 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,760 Speaker 1: to be honest with you, in the life, lesson stuff 952 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 1: about you know, what you're gonna teach them stuff you're 953 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,760 Speaker 1: not even You're just trying to get them not to cry, 954 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, and not to burn, you know, try to 955 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:54,880 Speaker 1: get them to burp so they can lay on their 956 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,800 Speaker 1: back and go to sleep. It's I think that stuff 957 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:02,840 Speaker 1: is at least for me, me more as you get older, 958 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: which I would say, my core values and morals haven't 959 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 1: changed since I was like in high school. I would 960 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:15,600 Speaker 1: say the one thing that I am way more natal. 961 00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:19,719 Speaker 1: I was very selfish, you know. I think all I 962 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:22,240 Speaker 1: cared about in my twenties and even through my early 963 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:26,160 Speaker 1: thirties were like myself, my own ambitions, what I had 964 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:29,960 Speaker 1: to do. I didn't think of other people. And as 965 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:33,319 Speaker 1: you get older, as you know, a good woman comes 966 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:37,520 Speaker 1: in your life, you know, you you just get more 967 00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:41,239 Speaker 1: perspective on like things are bigger than yourself, that don't 968 00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 1: be so caught up in your own world, because most 969 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:47,279 Speaker 1: people don't give a shit. So I would say that 970 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:52,439 Speaker 1: trying to think of others, including my wife going through 971 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,280 Speaker 1: this is something I try to think a lot about. 972 00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:59,640 Speaker 1: One piece of advice that I sectually saw on Instagram, 973 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:03,920 Speaker 1: which I trust me we've I haven't followed this to 974 00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 1: a tee, but when you're up at three am with 975 00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 1: the baby, don't speak. Yeah, just just don't speak to 976 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 1: each other because typically the conversations you're tired. It's just 977 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 1: it's not a happy environment. That would be my recommendation. 978 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 1: I saw that on an Instagram reel one time. It's 979 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:28,880 Speaker 1: like piece of advice is for new baby three am. 980 00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:32,760 Speaker 1: Keep quiet now again, I've been guilty of saying things 981 00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:35,520 Speaker 1: because you're just not even thinking straight, you're pissed off, 982 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:37,399 Speaker 1: you're just in the middle of the night time. You'd 983 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:42,520 Speaker 1: never be up. Don't say anything, but I would say, 984 00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 1: you know, you're gonna have a you know, much different twenties, 985 00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 1: late twenties than myself. Just think of other people think 986 00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:55,200 Speaker 1: of her, but I didn't. I wouldn't have learned that, 987 00:54:55,480 --> 00:55:00,160 Speaker 1: you know, up until now. And then the thing you're 988 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 1: gonna teach a child, I think you just teach him 989 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 1: as they get older and they can communicate and they 990 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 1: can remember, you know. So I'm not in that face. 991 00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:11,239 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to get him to you know, I 992 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:17,000 Speaker 1: don't even know not shit all over me. The Patriots 993 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 1: reached the Super Bowl after spending the GDP of a 994 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 1: small nation on free agency last offseason. Do you think 995 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:26,040 Speaker 1: the Panthers can make a similar type leap after signing 996 00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:32,359 Speaker 1: Jalen Phillips, Devin Lloyd or Shehe Walker. I think it's 997 00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:36,240 Speaker 1: safe to say two things can be true. They overpaid 998 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:39,839 Speaker 1: Jalen Phillips, like they paid him more money than his 999 00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:43,839 Speaker 1: profile and resume would say he was worth. But when 1000 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 1: you make it a free agency, you got to pay 1001 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 1: a premium and essentially like a tax to acquire guys 1002 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: that other teams would want. But I also think they 1003 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: need them and if he can just be a productive 1004 00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 1: pass rusher for them, it's this isn't an apples to 1005 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:05,400 Speaker 1: apples situation, but I remember people like guys gave him 1006 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,360 Speaker 1: a lot of money. He traded a high pick for 1007 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:09,680 Speaker 1: Brian Burns, like you watch Brian Burns for the Giants. 1008 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 1: Like that guy could play for any team if Jalen 1009 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 1: Phillips can be that, Like you don't need to be 1010 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:15,920 Speaker 1: Von Miller in his prime. I don't need to be 1011 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:18,760 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett. But can you be a guy when people 1012 00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 1: watch TV and watch your team play, be like, I fuck, 1013 00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 1: I want that guy on my squad. It's a gay 1014 00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,080 Speaker 1: making a little bit more than I'd like to pay him, 1015 00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:27,439 Speaker 1: But like, that guy's an impact player. He can really 1016 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 1: rush the passer. If Jalen Phillips can do that. I've 1017 00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:33,840 Speaker 1: like Lloyd since Utah. He obviously had kind of a 1018 00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:40,719 Speaker 1: breakout year last year. Their formula is pretty clear. They 1019 00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:43,799 Speaker 1: don't have Joe Burrow or Patrick Mahomes. He's gonna have 1020 00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:47,880 Speaker 1: to be a game manager. McMillan's a good player. They 1021 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:50,319 Speaker 1: got some good pieces on the offensive line. They need 1022 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,960 Speaker 1: to have a good defense, and like that formula can 1023 00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:56,760 Speaker 1: win them ten games. He's gonna have some bad games. 1024 00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: He's gonna get overwhelmed. He's also gonna have some good games. 1025 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:01,760 Speaker 1: He's going to be a very up and down player. 1026 00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:03,719 Speaker 1: To me, the question with them big picture because I 1027 00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:08,040 Speaker 1: think next year they could win the division, But like, 1028 00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,000 Speaker 1: how do you handle this situation with his contract? Personally 1029 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:13,880 Speaker 1: pick up the fifth year option and we just play 1030 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 1: out his entire rookie contract and we'd figure it out 1031 00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:20,360 Speaker 1: from there. But you cannot do the Tua Kyler thing. 1032 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:28,080 Speaker 1: That's how you get in trouble. Good question, similar question. 1033 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:31,400 Speaker 1: They's had a very good uh this on the Panthers 1034 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 1: between seeing what happened to Kyler and Tua not talking 1035 00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 1: contract extension with Bryce yet, could they be setting up 1036 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:41,919 Speaker 1: to be the first team to tell a quarterback this 1037 00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:44,760 Speaker 1: is the number we think you're worth, rather than just 1038 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 1: picking the number up with the quarterback scale. Build a 1039 00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:54,480 Speaker 1: great team that could succeed with Bryce or the next 1040 00:57:54,720 --> 00:58:00,040 Speaker 1: reclamation project. My question is this, do you want to 1041 00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:03,000 Speaker 1: give him a contract extension? Like let's say, hey, Bryce, 1042 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:06,720 Speaker 1: we think you're worth like three years seventy million dollars. 1043 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 1: Do you want to give him three years seventy million dollars? 1044 00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:10,760 Speaker 1: Or you like, do we just want this guy for 1045 00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 1: really cheap? My question is do you want to give 1046 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:17,000 Speaker 1: this guy a contract extension? I could not say right 1047 00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 1: now I feel comfortable doing that now. Again, I'm not 1048 00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 1: like I've watched every Panther snap. I probably watch more 1049 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:24,920 Speaker 1: bad than good. I know he had some moments in 1050 00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:29,680 Speaker 1: the playoff games, but I wouldn't even be it wouldn't 1051 00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 1: even be on my top of mind. Like the Texans 1052 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:35,040 Speaker 1: right now, it's like CJ. We want to build around you. 1053 00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:36,880 Speaker 1: We just need to see more. We know you have 1054 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,280 Speaker 1: it in you, but can you play just a different 1055 00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:41,920 Speaker 1: style of football? Like Bryce? I don't even know if 1056 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:44,520 Speaker 1: he hasn't in him to be like a franchise quarterback. 1057 00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 1: And this you know, technically, this administration, the coach specifically, 1058 00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:57,400 Speaker 1: it's not like he was the guy that drafted him. Okay, 1059 00:58:57,440 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 1: when on this forty nine or fan here would you 1060 00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:03,080 Speaker 1: rather have or Brock I would say in twenty six. 1061 00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:06,640 Speaker 1: I'd rather have Brock because, especially for the forty nine ers, 1062 00:59:07,040 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 1: there's a athletic element that Dak no longer has. Now, 1063 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:16,560 Speaker 1: Dak in just a pure passing offense is going to 1064 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:19,240 Speaker 1: be better than Perty. I mean, part of Purdy's skill 1065 00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 1: set is Kyle's offense. Dak when he played for Mike 1066 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 1: and now Schottenheimer, there's just like drop back sling it. 1067 00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 1: That's not really Perty's deal. So I think there are 1068 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 1: skill sets. Dak used to be much more of a 1069 00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 1: hybrid player. He now doesn't move as well, but he's 1070 00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:39,840 Speaker 1: a better I would say, pure pocket passer. He's just taller. 1071 00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:43,440 Speaker 1: He can see that Dak's developed into a really good player. 1072 00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 1: Perty has a element of his athleticism that's a huge, 1073 00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 1: huge addition to the forty nine ers because beside Trent Williams, 1074 00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:53,840 Speaker 1: they're not exactly you know, a bunch of all pros 1075 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 1: up front, so they need him to move around and 1076 00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,960 Speaker 1: he does really well. Dak couldn't do that for the night. 1077 01:00:00,640 --> 01:00:02,040 Speaker 1: He could when he was younger. You know, if you 1078 01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:04,600 Speaker 1: would have got Dak, or if Dak would have got 1079 01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 1: with a guy like Kyle, you know, or you know 1080 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:09,560 Speaker 1: in La floor Kevin O'Connell or McVeigh when he was 1081 01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:12,520 Speaker 1: young in that offense, I think he would have been 1082 01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 1: could have had a lot of success. He's had a 1083 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:19,000 Speaker 1: lot of success, but I just wonder if his playoff 1084 01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:22,520 Speaker 1: resume would have looked a little differently. He's obviously had 1085 01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:24,920 Speaker 1: a really good career. I'm much higher on Dak now 1086 01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:27,720 Speaker 1: than I was early in his career. I know, I 1087 01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:29,920 Speaker 1: know he's had a rough stretch there of the playoff games, 1088 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 1: but I definitely think he's good enough to have playoff moments. 1089 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:36,400 Speaker 1: They just haven't really come in the big spots. I 1090 01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:38,320 Speaker 1: know he had the one game against Tampa when they 1091 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:43,040 Speaker 1: were terrible, But I would say I would say it 1092 01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:46,640 Speaker 1: like this if the Cowboys, and obviously money and contracts 1093 01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:51,800 Speaker 1: are complicated, if Jerry Jones called Kyle and John and 1094 01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:55,320 Speaker 1: said Dak for Purdy or vice versa, I think they 1095 01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:57,840 Speaker 1: both just say no. I don't think the forty nine 1096 01:00:57,880 --> 01:00:59,840 Speaker 1: ers would trade Brock Purty for Dak Prescott, and I 1097 01:00:59,840 --> 01:01:02,479 Speaker 1: don't think the Cowboys would trade Dak Prescott for Brock Party. 1098 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:04,960 Speaker 1: So it's one of those It's like they're kind of 1099 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 1: in the same spot, right, They're in the same world. 1100 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 1: They're not in that upper tier. They're better than the 1101 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:15,160 Speaker 1: majority of guys, and they both have a little bit 1102 01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 1: different of a skill set. But I like both guys. 1103 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 1: I'm higher on Brocked and guys like Colin, and I'm 1104 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:26,480 Speaker 1: higher on Dacked than people that think he's overrated. He 1105 01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:31,360 Speaker 1: makes a lot right but uh, it's Jerry for you audios. 1106 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:36,080 Speaker 1: Talk to you tomorrow. The volume
