15
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 1: I do want to touch on We did check in

16
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: on your social media while you were gone, and there

17
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: was a Instagram story of you looking out into the abyss,

18
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: into the enjoying nature, and we're like, oh, that wasn't

19
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: very like Greg to really put himself out there like

20
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: that on social media, and we're just wondering what headspace

21
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 1: you were in at that moment. Uh, you clearly didn't

22
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: actually listen to it. It was just sort of a joke.

23
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: It was like peace and quiet. It was this pretty view.

24
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: But then seven seconds in Walker's voice pops up and

25
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,320
Speaker 1: it's like, mommy, where are you? So you didn't you

26
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,759
Speaker 1: didn't have It was just like a bit. Oh I see,

27
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: all right, well then, uh, what's your bit here? Oh no,

28
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 1: we thought it was tied to, you know, recreational. Unfortunately

29
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: not that day, but certainly certainly that's in the mix

30
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: on a family vacation. Alright, good, well, I'm glad you

31
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: had a nice vago. No no, no, no, no, no,

32
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: no, no no no no. Oh my goll oh my goll

33
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: is that it's Connor. We can't hear you because you're

34
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: not wearing a microphone. The first thing the turn her up, collegue,

35
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: do you look like you worked on that walk in?

36
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: I did check out check us out chair. Now it's

37
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: gotten to the point where the Colleen walking is leading

38
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: to Connie shooting me the bird from behind the glass.

39
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: But I think it's brand building. I think you'll look

40
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: back one day and say thank you, Dan for trying

41
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: to get this bit off the ground because it's gonna

42
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 1: pay off in spades with some type a major sponsorship

43
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: or something down the line. That's great, I hope. So

44
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: I am wonderful. I just finished a little mock draft live.

45
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: You guys can check that out on NFL Network. Lands

46
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: ser Line just released his latest mock, I'm all warmed

47
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: up right now. I also sprinted up the steps in

48
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: heels with my asthma um, and I don't have it inhaler,

49
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: so it's gonna be fine. All right, take a deep breath.

50
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 1: You actually you were in Tybee Island this weekend with Joel.

51
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: I was so. We had a wedding in Savannah. One

52
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: of my best friends from college got married there, and

53
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: Tybee's obviously like twenty minutes away from Tybee. So I

54
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: stayed an extra day and I got my friend to

55
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: come to Ka Boos with me, and it was so nice.

56
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: It was a gorgeous day, first of all, but it

57
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: was just so nice because I felt like I was

58
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: hanging out with West and I got to our good

59
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: friends Rosie and Wayne, who know West very well. They

60
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: came and met up with us, and then they randomly

61
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: pulled like two gigantic collages out of nowhere, like from

62
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: behind a booth and dusted them off, and it was

63
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: all of these photos of West from years and years

64
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: ago from Ka Boos with all of the characters. I

65
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: had never seen it multiple It was amazing. It was

66
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: such a great time. Yeah. And then um our buddy Wayne,

67
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: he has a Pontiac gt O which I did not

68
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 1: know about, so he took us first spin and that

69
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: I had a wonderful time. That is. That's a great

70
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: I always thought that Tybee was always add twenty degrees

71
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 1: with humidity, but you're saying there's actually just nice chill

72
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: weather there too. Well. The wedding that I had on

73
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: Saturday was on a dock with no heaters and it

74
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: dipped down to about forty degree and major wind gusts.

75
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: So yeah, um, I didn't do it. I was home.

76
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: I was home this weekend. Big time loser took the

77
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: Suns to see Sonic too. How was that? You know

78
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: what it is? It's two hours and two minutes long?

79
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: And you know what the next day or that night,

80
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: I was scanning through Netflix and uh, full Metal Jacket,

81
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 1: the great Stanley Kubrick masterpiece was on. So what did

82
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: you do one hour and fifty six minutes long. It's

83
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: a lot of movies. Oh yeah in a world. Oh,

84
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,919
Speaker 1: this is not the time for the Mark Pot. I

85
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: know he's on vacation, but I'm annoyed. Now, Okay, you're

86
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 1: seeing little Filler and Sonic time. I'm just saying they

87
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: maybe it's time for all of Hollywood to take a

88
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: good look in the mirror. That's all I agree with it.

89
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: I can't sit still. It's really difficult for me to

90
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: watch a movie in general, so I would much rather

91
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: show I went and saw that movie Drive My Car

92
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: in the theater because I knew I would never be

93
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: able to sit through it at home. Two hours and

94
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 1: fifty minutes. That the New Batman's three hours. That's way

95
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: too much. It's too much. Today's show great to have

96
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 1: the crew here. Mark getting his much deserve vacation, so

97
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: we'll try to leave him alone. That's very important coming

98
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 1: up on today's show. Yes, it is the unveiling on

99
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 1: the podcast of the Graybeards with very special guests, uh

100
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: My Roster Consigliari, Evan Silva of Established So that's coming

101
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: up a little later, but first we have to get

102
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: caught up on the news. It's funny. Some people see

103
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: him and they see him as rapper, but to me,

104
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: he's a story teller. That's where I feel about myself.

105
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 1: I'm holding this guitar anyway, Look at me going on

106
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: and on here, Satellite. These are the messages I get

107
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: from Dan Hansas on a regular basis. No context for this,

108
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: I don't need it. We had a brief conversation. You

109
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 1: should have context for my own uh, if you have

110
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 1: any respect for me? Um No, we uh. I talked

111
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: about we're talking about guitar play. I asked if you

112
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: knew how to play guitar. I don't know how to

113
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: play guitar. And I said, if I didn't know how

114
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: to play guitar, I would have been a great dorm

115
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: douche back in college because that's endless game. I mean,

116
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: it's it would be a shooting fish in a barrel.

117
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 1: That would be an example of dialogue. I would share.

118
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 1: We were trying to do like a live performance of

119
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 1: a bit coming up, but you know that didn't work out.

120
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: I think it worked out better though. Yeah. And Satellite,

121
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: of course is Dave Matthews Band. Because if you had

122
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: songs in your back pocket with the acoustic guitar in

123
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: the dorm. You're crushing it at Northeastern with you if

124
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: I had a guitar, but I didn't, so I wasn't.

125
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: All right, let's get into the news. Let's start with

126
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: something really said, really tragic. Steelers quarterback Dwayne Haskins died

127
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: Saturday morning after he was hit by a vehicle in

128
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: South Florida, twenty four years old. Unbelievable tragedy. Here stand

129
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: out at Ohio State star there, helped them win a championship,

130
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: all Big Ten honors, went to the NFL. Did not

131
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: go um as well in the pros. But uh, it's

132
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: hard to believe, Greg, that we would lose Dwayne Haskins

133
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: at this age years old, when a tragedy. Yeah, it's

134
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: really sad. You know, he was he was expected to

135
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: return to the Steelers this year play play a backup

136
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: role there. And when you follow these players, you you

137
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: don't know them. And unfortunately sometimes it takes something like

138
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: this to learn more about Dwayne Haskins, like the man

139
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: and the friend. And you just heard so much from

140
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: his teammates both in Washington and Pittsburgh of like what

141
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: he meant to them, that he was always looking to improve,

142
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: looking to get better, that he was a very um

143
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: passionate like person and impacted so many people. All we

144
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: know about is like what we see on the field,

145
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: and I don't know, it's it's it's tough. All these

146
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: early deaths they always like hit hard, but it hits

147
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 1: even harder after West for some reason, that just like

148
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: whenever a life is lost too soon, and the way

149
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: our world is now that we're bombarded with social you know,

150
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: media and just information all the time, like it's all

151
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 1: was happening, but it just makes you think. It definitely

152
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 1: hit me different because I was already feeling nostalgic for

153
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: West when I was in Georgia, and then I got

154
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: the news of Dwayne Haskins and I had a chance

155
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 1: to talk with him a lot at the combine, and

156
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: he was so sweet before he was coming out like

157
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: he We talked about so many different things just about

158
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 1: him and his life and and what he what he liked.

159
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: He we had this shared love for Alan Iverson, who

160
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: that was the first person who got me into sports.

161
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 1: And he also just had this love for cooking and

162
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: this infectious smile and had an entire Instagram dedicated to

163
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: the dogs. That he and his girlfriend shared together. So

164
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: we talked about so many different things. I remember he

165
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: had thrown at a special needs football camp and that

166
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,719
Speaker 1: was something that was really special and important to him.

167
00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: And he also had this eighth grade science project that

168
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: he did because everybody always brings up the fact that

169
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: he wanted to go to Ohio State, and he talked

170
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: about it and he uh, he had basically said that

171
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: he was going to go there and then it happened.

172
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: But I thought that this was interesting. He had this

173
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: eighth grade science project that he did and he was

174
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 1: able to determine that over the top throwing motion produces

175
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 1: the cleanest release, the tightest firals, and the highest velocity

176
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: and he got an A on the project and he

177
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: was so proud of that. So it's just so tragic

178
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: the entire situation. He was so young, and it's just

179
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: so so sad. And it did because you learn, you

180
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: learn more about someone um after they passed, somebody that's

181
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: the celebrity or someone that's a notable figure sometimes And

182
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: for me, as someone who didn't doesn't follow college closely,

183
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: I didn't know any of that. Dwayne Haskins as a

184
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: college star, legend, a legend at Ohio State, that guy

185
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 1: that was born to play there and then took the

186
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 1: team UH to Rose Bowl greatness. So from me, it

187
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: was a a ball As a professional, I only knew

188
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: the guy that wasn't ready for the NFL, that didn't

189
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: play well in Washington and now was hoping to make

190
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: it and stick around at Pittsburgh as a backup. So

191
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 1: it's just it's a reminder that these people, um, people

192
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: are more than what they do just on the field.

193
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: When you get to the NFL, there's a there's a

194
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: whole person behind it. It's just it's a tragic thing.

195
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: Everyone who was getting passed around. Of course on on

196
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: social media. His last Instagram post or he was just

197
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: messing around having fun with different Steelers players they're working

198
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: out in Florida when this accident occurred. Just very sad

199
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: and um our hearts go out to his family. So

200
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins passes away at hard to believe. Moving on class,

201
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 1: Campbell and the Ravens are back in business two years,

202
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 1: twelve and a half million dollar deal. UH makes too

203
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: much sense because Campbell has spent the last two years

204
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 1: in Baltimore and has remained a really productive player greg

205
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 1: both against the run and getting after the quarterback. There's

206
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: a few Maybe he's not the same guy was five

207
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,719
Speaker 1: years ago, but still a big time productive talent. He

208
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: wouldn't be on the street. I mean he looks like

209
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: the same guy that he was when you were sidling

210
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: up to him at some The biggest man I've ever

211
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: like been goes out it was all or nothing Premier

212
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: in Downtown l A. I mean, the deep the deepest

213
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: voice in the game. There's one of one. You know,

214
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: they say that a lot when when when people pass

215
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 1: or but Klis game in terms of what he does

216
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: as a player is a one of one. There's really

217
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 1: kind of no one like him. His size, his ability

218
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: and his um ability to not get any worse as

219
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: he gets older. Like p F. If he goes to

220
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, and I think he'll have a chance,

221
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: I think he'll be discussed. PFF will be part of

222
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: the process because he's been one of the highest ranked

223
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: like interior defensive lineman throughout the PF era, and I

224
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: think that's I think that's helped the football COGNISCENTI really

225
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 1: know and appreciate a player like him. He kind of

226
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: reminds me a little a different style. But an Aaron Smith,

227
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,319
Speaker 1: who was with Pittsburgh awhile back, also a PFF favorite.

228
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick loved him. Was like Richard Seymour type, doing

229
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: a lot of the dirty work that doesn't get a

230
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: lot of the publicity or the stats. But the football heads, no,

231
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 1: I love that PF. Has there been a PF Hall

232
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: of Famer yet? And if there hasn't, would Campbell be

233
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: the first? I think Andrew Whitworth will be the first test.

234
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 1: I think he uh now became more famous later in

235
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 1: his career because he joined the Rams and he started

236
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: to get a few more All pros, and he ended

237
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: how he ended. But I think for a while PF

238
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 1: was kind of carrying the flag that hey, actually, I

239
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: know there's Joe Thomas and Walter Jones and all these

240
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: other guys, but Andrew Whitworth is one of the best

241
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 1: three or four tackles in the league. Year after year

242
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 1: they were saying that, and eventually I think everyone caught

243
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: up so he could be the first class continues to

244
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 1: be so good. I really thought that he was going

245
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: to retire. Having had a chance to work with him

246
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: on game day morning, this year during the playoffs, just

247
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: talking with him, he was saying that he was trying

248
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: out some different things in media and he liked it.

249
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 1: And first of all, he is just the nicest guy

250
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: in the world off the field. And yes, Dan, I

251
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: can confirm he's the largest human being I've ever met.

252
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 1: He's like a gentle giant. He's so cool too. I

253
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: just had such a great time working with him. But

254
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: he was so thoughtful in what we were doing for

255
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: the show and the conversations that we were having. And

256
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: I can tell that he is the same way on

257
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: the field too. And you can see it when he

258
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: plays the fact that he's known as a guy that

259
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: gets after the quarterback, but these last few years he's

260
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: been really used as a run stopper. But I just

261
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: I like with Baltimore did bringing him back. There were

262
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 1: reports that he turned down offers elsewhere to go back

263
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: to Baltimore. The Ravens just brought back Josh Binds on Friday, Wagner,

264
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: I love, Yeah. I want to be picking the Ravens

265
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 1: as a big comeback team because football outsiders said the

266
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 1: step that they were the most injured team in the

267
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: last twenty years. Like they they they track adjusted games

268
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: lost every year. It's just a number. And the Ravens

269
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: were the least lucky, the most unlucky team in twenty years.

270
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: And so to me, if you had added Bobby Wagner

271
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: and all the players coming back in all this but

272
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 1: even then Campbell, they brought back Michael Pierce, so they

273
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: used to have who was in Minnesota too. You feel

274
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: good about the Ravens right now. I'm so. I'm saying

275
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: they're just a natural candidate to totally bounce back. They

276
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: were very unlucky towards the end of last year, losing

277
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: all those close games, and we're just decimated by injuries. Uh.

278
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: He was in conversation with Peter King recently and he

279
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 1: believes Coasel that there could be five quarterbacks taken in

280
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: the first round. Greggy this, well, I'm of two minds

281
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: on this one, of course, because seth seems how it

282
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: always works out. But to this year is like the

283
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: ultimate test, because back in February before the combine, everyone

284
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: was of the opinion there might not be any quarterbacks

285
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: there maybe one that would go in the first round.

286
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: But what happens after the Combine, after the pro days,

287
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: as teams figure out the lay of the land after

288
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: the agency, there's always going to be that hunger at

289
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 1: the signal caller position. It is the ultimate test of that.

290
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: I feel like the year that Christian Ponder and Jake

291
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: Locker and all of them started going eight, ten, twelve

292
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: was was where it got really crazy and they put

293
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: all those guys on the cover with with Cam Newton

294
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: on Sports Illustrated, and then this this draft is turning

295
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 1: into a similar case. But it makes sense to me,

296
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: first of all, when you go through all these players

297
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: like they don't seem like that bad prospects. They seem

298
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: all like borderline first round picks, right. And so if

299
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: you're the Panthers or you're the Seahawks, or you're these

300
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 1: teams that are being talked up the Steelers to maybe

301
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: take them in the first round, are you gonna wait

302
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: for round two? Are you just gonna take them? Just

303
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: take them. I think that this year is so such

304
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: a weird class with the quarterbacks though, and even the

305
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 1: mock drafts that have come out from our guys here

306
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 1: at NFL Network, like Bucky had one two weeks ago

307
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: that came out had zero quarterbacks going in the first round.

308
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: And that's something that I thought my actually be possible.

309
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 1: But with the fifth year option, you know teams are

310
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,199
Speaker 1: going to trade into the back end. But I just

311
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: don't know about this quarterback class compared to years past,

312
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: because just based on everything that I've heard from insiders

313
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 1: and scouts and teams, it's not a good class. And

314
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: it seems like teams are going to always talk themselves

315
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: into just taking a chance on someone. But if you

316
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 1: draft a first round quarterback, then you're beholden to that

317
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,919
Speaker 1: and if that player isn't as good as maybe the

318
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,439
Speaker 1: scrub that you already have on your roster, you're in

319
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: some trouble. Sam Donald does not need to be called

320
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 1: too far, but that's they're the best example. And Josh

321
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: Norris on Twitter to kind of pointed out they've traded

322
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: back a ton in there at six, so they're a

323
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 1: candidate to trade back and then take a Desmond or something.

324
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: But like, are you really going to go through this

325
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: quarterback and not go through this draft and not taking

326
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: Are the Saints really getting out of this first round

327
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 1: with those two picks without taking a quarter back? I

328
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: don't know the Saints. I think take one. I think

329
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: the Steelers probably will because that makes a lot of sense,

330
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 1: especially with the tragic news of Haskins and then Ben

331
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger not being there and having Mitchell. But I think

332
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: the Lions are an interesting candidate to trade up because

333
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: of that thirty second pick that they got from trading

334
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford. They don't have any long term out So

335
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 1: those examples are all good examples of teams that if

336
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: it makes sense, if they're in a position to take

337
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: a quarterback and they feel comfortable doing it where they

338
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 1: are in the draft, yes, take a swing. Like Greg

339
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: you always say, just keep taking swings. But the Panthers

340
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: are that perfect example of the team that might be

341
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: they've backed themselves into a corner here and now they

342
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 1: had they might have to take a swing they're not

343
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:49,239
Speaker 1: even confident about, and that's usually when disaster strikes. But

344
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: who knows. You Also, nobody knows anything, so they might

345
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: hit on a guy that everyone roundly criticizes as being

346
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: a bad pick, and then he becomes a good starter.

347
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: Like the I don't know where guys get draft did

348
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 1: so gets talked about a lot on draft weekend and

349
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 1: then it fades away. Chad Chad Reuter a router on

350
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 1: our website has three going in the top twelve, which

351
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: is like that that feels like and whether it's right

352
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: or not, And a lot of times the pre draft

353
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: buzzes is not right. But the buzz at this moment

354
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: is that they keep creeping up. And I think, I

355
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 1: think it kind of makes sense because when you actually

356
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 1: hear about all these guys, to me, they they sound attractive,

357
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 1: like they sound like good prospects depending on what you're

358
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 1: looking for, Like everyone looks at him differently. There's not

359
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 1: some huge consensus, but I feel like each one you

360
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: can make the case as a first round pick. Um.

361
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 1: All right, We're about to take a break, but I

362

378
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 1: hit the rest of the news before we get to

379
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 1: the graybeards and Evans Silva. Oh boy, I mean, what

380
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: is going on down there? The U s. House Oversight

381
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: Committee sent a letter to the Federal Trade Commission saying

382
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: it found evidence that the NFL's Washington Commanders engaged an

383
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 1: unlawful financial conduct. In a letter obtained by the Associated Press,

384
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,479
Speaker 1: the it he said the team withheld ticket revenue from

385
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 1: visiting teams and refundable ticket deposits from season ticket holders.

386
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: The committee said emails this is all part of the

387
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: Associated Press, documents and statements made by former employees indicate

388
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 1: team executives and owner Dan Snyder engaged in a quote troubling,

389
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: long running, and potentially unlawful pattern of financial conduct greg

390
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,239
Speaker 1: the Washington Football Team as they were known now the

391
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: Commanders as they're currently known, have been connected to nefarious

392
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 1: behavior UH for years now, and you wonder if something

393
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: that involves money coming out of owners pockets it would

394
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: be the thing that changes things in Washington. Well, it's

395
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 1: all very public. This letter that one Congressman UH sent

396
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: out from the Oversight Committee is was being released, and

397
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,719
Speaker 1: the NFL is not gonna say much. But I'm just

398
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 1: reminded of Roger Goodell making it clear at the end

399
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 1: of his last press conference that Dan Snyder was not

400
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 1: running the Washington commanders and that he did not expect

401
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: that to change anytime soon, which is I mean, a

402
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 1: pretty drastic and um almost unprecedented situation for an NFL

403
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: team owner. And all of this evidence that they're seeking

404
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: and the accusations that they're making is all coming out

405
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: of UH an investigation into their treatment in the workplace

406
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: of women. So it's it's multiple things happening, and it's

407
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: affecting the NFL in a very serious way that they

408
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 1: don't want to it's unprecedented. We're not going to guess

409
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: what what happens here, but I think it's safe to

410
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: say it absolutely has the NFL's attention. Who I think

411
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 1: if the owners find out that they were duped out

412
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: of money and a lot of money that should have

413
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:55,479
Speaker 1: been there's then they're actually going to do something about this.

414
00:22:55,680 --> 00:23:00,080
Speaker 1: Like I don't know of many things that would and

415
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,879
Speaker 1: a lot of shock waves to people. But when you

416
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: take someone's money and you're like a billionaire, that's something

417
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 1: that they care about. Right. You don't take money from

418
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 1: billionaires and things will happen to you. Um, We'll see

419
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 1: how this unfolds. Will continue to track it as more

420
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: details come out. Some quickies before we wrap up the news.

421
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 1: Wide receiver corner Brandon Cooks back to the Texans UH

422
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: on a two year extension. I believe good for him,

423
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 1: hopefully let's get traded. That he's been a wildly productive

424
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 1: receiver over the course. He's getting the benefit of this

425
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: whole Like every wide receiver gets a lot of money.

426
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks is like, hey man, I'm like, you know,

427
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: he's the equivalent of the NBA players. Just like I'm

428
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: a bucket, I'm a thousand yards, he's a bucket. He's

429
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,719
Speaker 1: a thousand yards. No matter what you can stick him

430
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 1: on the Texans, he's gonna get a thousand years. I

431
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,959
Speaker 1: like to what pet Hamilton's said that Brandon Cooks provides

432
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: a level of paranoia for defensive I like that, Yeah,

433
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks the selling point he could represent himself. I

434
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: will give you exactly yards and six to seven touchdowns

435
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 1: every year. Is that good enough for you? Does that?

436
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: Is there a place on your roster for me? Brandon Cooks?

437
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 1: I the most interesting thing about that that the Texans

438
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: like actually wanted to keep someone I've been waiting, like

439
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,119
Speaker 1: because there was this talk that they might end up

440
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: trading Cooks, and I was starting to wonder, like, what

441
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: is the point of the Texans here? That's bad for him?

442
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 1: He is constantly like it's kind of the same thing.

443
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 1: It's true with the the whole Seattle rumors of trading

444
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 1: DK metcalf Or or even the AG But I don't

445
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,719
Speaker 1: know where this stuff is coming from. But it's like,

446
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 1: what is the point of the Seahawks if if you're

447
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 1: just trying to trade away your best players? Because like

448
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,160
Speaker 1: that doesn't that doesn't work, that it's never worked. This

449
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 1: isn't the NBA. Like you're not good at drafting right now,

450
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: so you're saying and I'll use it. I'm just saying,

451
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 1: like you want to have good young players. Russell Wilson,

452
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,439
Speaker 1: I can almost put him in a different boat. But

453
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 1: you have a guy in your twenties, Why are you

454
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: trying to get rid of good players? I don't get that. Yeah,

455
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 1: I'll use a baseball analogy. Before they were caught cheating,

456
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 1: the Astros were famous for they stripped it down all

457
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: the way down to the studs and over I'm saying,

458
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 1: and then through good drafting built a superpower. Do we

459
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 1: have any evidence that that works in the NFL. But

460
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: there are teams that you're seeing it right now with

461
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 1: the Jets for instance, so the Lions. But you still

462
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: need to have the right leadership, and then you gotta

463
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: get lucky on several picks working out. It's a lot.

464
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: It takes a lot to build a team from. I

465
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: know that the Cowboys have done a really good job

466
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 1: in the draft, uh these years past, what they've done

467
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,360
Speaker 1: in the first round, I mean they've gotten like seven

468
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 1: of their last first round picks. Uh, seven of their

469
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: eight last first round picks were all hertel Walker trade

470
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 1: is a perfect example. But that was thirty years ago.

471
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: That was that was their one good asset on those

472
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 1: Dallas teams and Jerry Jones first took over at Jimmy

473
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 1: Johnson sent him to the Vikings and took those picks

474
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 1: and built a dynasty. It can be done, but it's

475
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: very difficult. But it's getting rid of good players doesn't

476
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 1: help you get other good players. That's the was my point. Yes,

477
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: you can get extra a couple of you can, like

478
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 1: you can get a couple of extra draft picks, but

479
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: all you're hoping to do is somehow find a DK

480
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 1: metcalf in that known commodity versus the draft, and what's

481
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: going to happen. It's kind of like if you look

482
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 1: at the cap space in the league now, there's a

483
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,439
Speaker 1: lot less teams that are grolling in every year with

484
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: way too much cap space because I think gms have

485
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: realized partly due to the Rams and and Eagles and

486
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 1: and Titans and Patriots and how some teams have run.

487
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: It's like you're wasting money with cat What is the

488
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: point of cap space? You should be maxing out to

489
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: win every year or else you're gonna lose and you're

490
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,719
Speaker 1: gonna get fired. It's like a two year league, So

491
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: getting rid of good young players get greg what is

492
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 1: the point of anything, really gonna get fired. Titans. Uh

493
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: coach Mike Brabel says, when A J. Brown hits the

494
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: trade block, I will not be the head coach. So

495
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 1: that was struck down very hard. A J. Brown leaving

496
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: Tennessee and Terry mclaura and your boy Greg not negotiating

497
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: with Washington. Keep an eye on that. Everyone is talking

498
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 1: about a J. Brown DK metcalf. But if there's a

499
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: wide receiver hungry team out there, we know there are several. Uh.

500
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:15,679
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin is well respected by people that follow the game. Uh,

501
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 1: where is this coming from? Is there any It doesn't

502
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: sound like the Titans are at all intry. I think

503
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 1: it's just this feels like it's just coming out of

504
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 1: it from screen. Digger said that it wasn't serious. I

505
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: took that as God. That's I've moved forward on that um.

506
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: And finally or two things. The Broncos, Texans, Jaguars, Raiders, Vikings,

507
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: and Bucks all have started their voluntary workouts dead last

508
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: on that list. Cincinnati Bengals by a wide margin, the

509
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: last to start workouts. And you know, I think you

510
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 1: can maybe look at the success they had last year,

511
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 1: and I think Connie, this goes in all walks of life.

512
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 1: You can't rest on your laurels. You can't just assume

513
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: you're going to get back to that point or take

514
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 1: the next step. And Cincinnati hunting on an early start

515
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 1: to voluntary workouts. Don't tell me they played May had

516
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: a long playoff run. I don't care. That's in the past.

517
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,160
Speaker 1: Show me that you're serious about winning tomorrow, not yesterday.

518
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 1: I would say rest and recovery is just as important

519
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 1: as working out. It's all part of working out, really,

520
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: and that's how you maximize things. So not work harder,

521
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 1: work smarter, work that old bite. It is interesting though,

522
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 1: that they're so far behind everyone, Like, I think they're

523
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,719
Speaker 1: two weeks thank you behind everyone? Are you listening, Colleen?

524
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: Greg's agreeing with me. They got to the Super Bowl. Greg.

525
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: Tell Connie, because I don't think she's educated on this,

526
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: tell her how they are. I'm looking through it. It's

527
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 1: two weeks behind. Oh, I think I found why Connie

528
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 1: is not dialing into this. So they're two weeks behind

529
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 1: every team in the entire league, including the champion Rams.

530
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: I mean, they're coming back to work. Are you going

531
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: to let the man's plain to take them down? Listen?

532
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 1: Someone that doesn't enjoy working out. I completely co signed.

533
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: I'm aligned with what the Bengals are doing right now,

534
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: and I think they're doing a fabulous job and they

535
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 1: could do whatever they whet out. Why not show up

536
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 1: week one? Now it's the what month is it? Even?

537
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: It's April? Like, who cares? They're gonna have other workouts.

538
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: They're gonna have They're gonna have a whole check check

539
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: back with me in October. Their first day is two

540
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 1: weeks after everyone else except for one team. You know,

541
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 1: who else is changing the game? Who was actually taking

542
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 1: the longest rest? You have? Any team in the NFL,

543
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: Colleen's own Philadelphic exactly. This is this is what you do.

544
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 1: You know, this is why Lyle Collins left Dallas and

545
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: went to Cincinnati and immediately got a Bengals tattoo on them.

546
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: So they're just working out though they're just they're not

547
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:02,200
Speaker 1: a actually out in the field. I watched when I

548
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 1: watched the Eagles of the playoffs in January, my first

549
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 1: thought was take a long break, You've earned it. I

550
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: thought maybe they could just stop after two quarters. Uh

Speaker 1: back end of the first round. Uh. He gets injured

558
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 1: in training camp. I believe it was an achilles. Uh

559
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: missed the entire season. He met with the media as

560
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: part of voluntary workouts for Jacksonville, and he had a

561
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: nice little funny line about, you know, the timing, the

562
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 1: ill timing of his injury, but also there was a

563
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: time to miss a year. I'm glad I don't have

564

Speaker 1: You thought I was asking you to sing the entire songs,

585
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't know if I can

586
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: do that. I'm just wondering why am I up here?

587
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 1: I feel so awkward. You should have had me leave

592
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 1: Mary J. Black his halftime performance, just days and days

593
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: of going over that a couple of minutes just to

594
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: get it right, and that's what I felt like I

595
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 1: was with. This was like the Cincinnati Bengals version of

596
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: that all right here he is patiently waiting Evan Silva

597
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: the King the big Fish. And imagine Evan for the

598
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 1: second straight year sitting through that song. I can't believe it.

599
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 1: I I that is something I make sure to do.

600
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 1: I want Evan to get into the feeling of the

601
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 1: Gray Beards, my collection of thirty and over remaining free

602
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:18,720
Speaker 1: agents un rostered players to use some established the run parlance. Evan,

603
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 1: what's up? Buddy? What's this? Is definitely not only our

604
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:26,839
Speaker 1: second year doing this, because I remember when you first

605
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 1: asked me. I think it was four or five years ago,

606
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 1: Dan showing showing how memorable I am that you think

607
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:36,319
Speaker 1: it's only been two years. I was still at oh

608
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: two with the song. Yes, I was still at I

609
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: was still at wrote a world. When you first asked me,

610
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: I wrote out like all these burbs. I took like

611
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: a single blurb, and I still four years later, I

612
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: don't really know what my role here is, but I

613
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 1: am I'm happy to cheer on this team because I

614
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 1: think that this year's Gray gray Beards are going to

615
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 1: score a lot of points. Okay, it depends just to help.

616
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: As someone that's worked with Dan a long time, certain shows,

617
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 1: it's just you're gonna be a puppet on a string.

618
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,439
Speaker 1: He's the marionette guy, he's the master. It's not true

619
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: that not every show, no no, but there's just some

620
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: special Dan shows. This is it that well, this is

621
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: what's important here. Thank you, Greg. What's important here for

622
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 1: you to understand, Evan, If if I haven't made myself clear,

623
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:23,800
Speaker 1: is you are. I look at you as like a

624
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: consigliari my roster consigliari when it comes to the graybeards,

625
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,359
Speaker 1: and you are the compass to let me know if

626
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: I've gone astray, if there are people that should be

627
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 1: on the roster but aren't people, and vice versa, and uh.

628
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,359
Speaker 1: The article has been on NFL dot com since last

629
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 1: week and because of the changing, shifting landscape of free

630
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 1: agency and how veterans um approach free agency. Quite frankly,

631
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,800
Speaker 1: there are more high quality players available now than I

632
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: can ever remember in the eight years I've done this exercise.

633
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: And even in the four or five days since this

634
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: one Live Connie, only one player came off the free

635
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,800
Speaker 1: agent wire. It was Clais Campbell who so we have

636
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: to replace Calais in the middle of our defense. But

637
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:11,399
Speaker 1: otherwise this roster is locked and loaded still, So Evan,

638
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,360
Speaker 1: I hope that brings some clarity. And I do remember

639
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: when I asked you, uh several years back to add

640
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: some um blurbs and I thought I would get two

641
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 1: lines and then you gave me like giant paragraphs. And

642
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 1: remember thinking, I feel so bad because it was like

643
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: a writing assignment and wasn't even your website. That was

644
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,239
Speaker 1: a miscommunication, just like Connie and I just now with

645
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 1: that right, Well, I think what we need and I

646
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 1: mean Colleen didn't in podcast appearances. Colleen didn't practice at all.

647
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: I think what we need to do is you got

648
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 1: to send the lyrics over to Evan, and this segment

649
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: needs to end with Evan seeing the backing the backing bat.

650
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 1: How do you feel about that. I'm not gonna ask

651
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,759
Speaker 1: you to do anything beyond what we're doing, but what

652
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: we could do, we could we could do a take

653
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 1: two to close the epp. Oh we have to do

654
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 1: it again. Well, you have to do it, you know,

655
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 1: you have to redeem yourself. Well, I do want to

656
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 1: issue an official apology. For being tone deaf. Just putting

657
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,320
Speaker 1: that out there first and foremost. That reminds me of

658
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,880
Speaker 1: Chris Wessling, who, when he was in Catholic school on

659
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 1: the West side of Cincinnati, struggled in chorus class so

660
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 1: badly that the nun put his ear to the piano

661
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 1: to learn tone. So West was not a practicing Catholic

662
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: by the end of his life. I'll just say that.

663
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:34,280
Speaker 1: All right, let's get into it. That is an incredible

664
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,759
Speaker 1: story that I forgot about. He always leading into the

665
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 1: fact that he was the least musical person he ever

666
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: met and rhythm, but he loved music. He just was not, Yes,

667
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: he was not. He was not going to be ever

668
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 1: singing backing box uh for graybeards. All right, let's get

669
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 1: into it. Enough messing around. Evan's busy. Evan is the

670
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 1: big fish for a reason. Established the run is uh.

671
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 1: It has been a huge success, hasn't in Evan. It's

672
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: been a fun ride, absolutely, that's established Run dot Com

673
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: just established run on Twitter, alright, so check that out

674
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 1: for really great analysis on the sport and on the

675
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: fantasy end of things. Let's get to the roster, and

676
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:16,360
Speaker 1: I do believe without a doubt and you guys can disagree.

677
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 1: I know it's it's hard to kind of remember the

678
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 1: past years, but this is the best roster ever. In fact,

679
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 1: by far. I have them at ten and seven. I

680
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: have them as going to the dance and look, Evans,

681
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: Jake nodded his head, my consigliary. So let's see where

682
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: we come down. We'll start at quarterback. Okay. That yeah,

683
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: that's your first problem in terms of going and tenant seven.

684
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 1: It's a problem, but also there's some magic involved. It's

685
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 1: fits magic. He is on he's on the wire still.

686
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 1: He's aged thirty nine, turning forty in November, coming off

687
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: obviously the hip injury that ruined his season last year,

688
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: but fits its starter. And I can't believe it, Gino

689
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,799
Speaker 1: Smith over Cam Newton as my backup. Grag it through

690
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: a little bone there. I know you love. This feels

691
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 1: like coming full circle for you and your geno relationship.

692
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: That you would unfairly maligned him for what happened in

693
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 1: New York. I think that's a lot of stretch. Is

694
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 1: there anyone else, Evan, that you could think of a

695
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 1: quarterback that's out there that might have been Would you

696
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 1: put Cam ahead of Geno or even fits for instance. No,

697
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,720
Speaker 1: And you know I actually made my own gray beards

698
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 1: without even reading your article, and these were the uh.

699
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 1: And then I went back and reviewed and we wound

700
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 1: up with seem two quarterbacks. My issue is that with

701
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick, I just don't know what his health status is.

702
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 1: He's thirty nine, He's coming off a dislocated hip, you

703
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 1: know why. I mean, he's generated very little buzz there,

704
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 1: haven't haven't even been you know, any rumors of him

705
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: doing anything. Is he's just gonna hang it up, you know,

706
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: or signed with the team. Maybe during the season. Geno

707
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 1: Smith could begin the season as our would would Ryan,

708
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 1: we we have to put him on reserve pup in

709
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 1: the year. Geno Smith in three starts for Seattle last year.

710
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: Passer rated okay, so he could carry us through the

711
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: first few games. Well, he's going to be suspended to

712
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 1: for a d U I probably, but in this world

713
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 1: maybe you know, all right, that sets up nicely. Don't

714
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:20,320
Speaker 1: trust those TMZ cops sources. That's all I'm saying. You know,

715
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 1: if you know the story, you know, uh, there's just

716
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: a lot of bad, bad reporting out there. When it

717
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 1: came to this, only Greg would dig in deep on

718
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 1: the police report reporting on Genus This Rightan Fitzpatrick's a

719
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 1: thirty nine year old just had hip surgery. I sort

720
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 1: of assumed he was just gonna walk away because uh,

721
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 1: he he doesn't want to ruin the rest of his life.

722
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: That seems like a tough way to go out, but

723
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 1: it also seems like a warning not to play football again.

724
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: The last report was that no immediate decision had been made,

725
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 1: and then he he might try to stay ready and

726
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,320
Speaker 1: then see what he's thinking in like September, you know,

727
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: like be on the call list, but telling teams like

728
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 1: and don't bother with me for now. I'm just I

729
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 1: don't want to deal with the off season. So yes,

730
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,320
Speaker 1: there's some risk here at quarterbacks, but um, at the

731
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: same time fits Magic Connie at running back. I like it.

732
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,360
Speaker 1: I like the group here. I don't love it. I

733
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 1: like it this. This team is gonna get stronger as

734
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 1: we as we go along. Jack McKinnon. Last time you

735
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: saw him, he was getting snaps over former first round

736
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 1: pick Clyde Edwards Hilaire in the playoffs. In fact, he

737
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 1: had over three total yards in a touch across three contests.

738
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: He's my starter. Uh, and I have David Johnson. I

739
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 1: don't know what's left with David Johnson at this point,

740
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:31,120
Speaker 1: but he's a guy who can catch the ball out

741
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: of the backfield. He's a professional. You could do some

742
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 1: handles and blitz is things of that nature. That's my

743
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,440
Speaker 1: one too. There, what do you think, Connie? Look, this

744
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 1: is going to be a position that no matter what

745
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,800
Speaker 1: year it is for the gray Beards, it's going to

746
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 1: be a thin spot for them on the roster because

747
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 1: running backs over thirty years old. Like, yeah, there's a

748
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,520
Speaker 1: decline there. So well, did you listen to the lyrics?

749
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 1: I know you we the song? There's there's doubting of

750
00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 1: people that tried to black the song out. The said though,

751
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 1: like it's mentioned how you're over thirty, right, right, but

752
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 1: you you have to then add in a little disclaimer

753
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: inside the song. Jack McKinnon doesn't turn thirty into me.

754
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 1: That's all these guys at thirty at some point. But

755
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 1: here are the lyrics, and I know Evan has them

756
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:19,879
Speaker 1: committed to memory. But if you're not aware, age don't

757
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: mean I cannot play. You will see me lead the way.

758
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 1: Gray beards never go away. So the assumption that you're

759
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 1: making it that these guys can't hacken anymore. Maybe it's

760
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: just team builders think that you turn thirty and you

761
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 1: can't play running back anymore. And I don't think it's true.

762
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: It's you know, it's not so much the age for me,

763
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,960
Speaker 1: it's really these two players. They don't get me that excited.

764
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 1: I am actually really loving the wide receivers that we

765
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 1: want to move to that let's hit the wide receivers.

766
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 1: This is has been wrong about David Johnson too too

767
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 1: long in his career, too many times. Probably that I'll

768
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 1: let you spee. I'm just saying, who further dis misinformation.

769
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,760
Speaker 1: I'm just saying David Johnson must have earned just about

770
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: every fantasy head there for a couple of years. All

771
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:06,839
Speaker 1: at one point he looked like the guy, and uh,

772
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,840
Speaker 1: it's been it's been a steady series of underperformance. Basically,

773
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 1: the thing is with with Jared McKinney David Johnson, they

774
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,920
Speaker 1: can both function in the passing game. It's a passing league.

775
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 1: And if you look at our wide receiver crew coming

776
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,439
Speaker 1: up and potentially our tight end corps, uh, we're gonna

777
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,319
Speaker 1: be throwing the ball a lot. But you don't want

778
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 1: to be like Pete carrollood Gina. You want to let

779
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:31,240
Speaker 1: Jina throw the ball the wide receivers. Odell Beckham, who's

780
00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: turning thirty in November. Uh, Antonio Brown, listen, I know

781
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 1: he's a knuckle head, but this is a fake team.

782
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 1: And because it's a fake team, his knuckle head him

783
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:43,320
Speaker 1: can't hurt me. Jarvis Landry, also thirty in November, and

784
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 1: Julio Jones. That was kind of a tough decision. I

785
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: thought maybe Julio would not be my fourth guy, could

786
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,879
Speaker 1: go with a J. Green for instance, or any number

787
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 1: of other players that were out there. Uh, but I

788
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 1: guess I just got sucked in a little bit by

789
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:57,800
Speaker 1: the name brand. What do you think of about this

790
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,080
Speaker 1: group coming? All right? I like that you have of

791
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 1: Beckham and Jarvis Landry teaming back up again. That has

792
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 1: to happen. It's it's has to. But I mean Beckham,

793
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 1: I think that what he was able to do with

794
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 1: the Rams, the fact that he was able to latch

795
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 1: on with them and have the playoffs that he did. Uh,

796
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,879
Speaker 1: despite the outcome in the Super Bowl, for him, Look,

797
00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: he increased his value. He's going to latch on with

798
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,720
Speaker 1: the team. Obviously they have to wait because of the injury,

799
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 1: but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he ends up

800
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 1: where um with Julio Jones old quarterback Matt Ryan with

801
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: the Colts maybe um, But I love I love these

802
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 1: wide receivers. It's a good team. Silva. What do you think?

803
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 1: And I'm curious what your for were when you did

804
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 1: the same exercise. Yeah, Odell Beckham, Julio Jones, Jarvis Landry,

805
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 1: and Tonio Browns are the exact same four, and then

806
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 1: you mentioned a J. Green. We've also got t Y Hilton,

807
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 1: who I think could be effective as like snapped player,

808
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,360
Speaker 1: and then Cole Beasley as our backup slot behind Jarvis Landry.

809
00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,320
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, we've got some depth. We just

810
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:03,959
Speaker 1: barely missed on same Watkins, who is somehow still years old.

811
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 1: Well that's actually progress because he was fifteen years exactly.

812
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 1: And then Will Fuller we barely missed on. I couldn't

813
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:19,359
Speaker 1: disagree with you guys more on this wide receiver. How

814
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 1: is a j First of all, Beasley, you can't sign him, uh,

815
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 1: even like as an option because the Gray Beards famously

816
00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: play a lot of their schedule in Canada. Uh, and

817
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 1: so his vaccination status comes into play there. It's like

818
00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:37,839
Speaker 1: it's like the seventies sixers Toronto. It's a trouble. It's troubling. Uh.

819
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 1: How is a J. Green not on this team? A J.

820
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:45,320
Speaker 1: Green got eight hundred and sixty yards last year going deep.

821
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 1: He's a vertical receiver. If you bringing him to camp,

822
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,439
Speaker 1: all right, he's going to compete now. And I don't

823
00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,279
Speaker 1: want Antonio Brown on my team. Uh. And if you

824
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 1: add up Julio Jones and Odell Beckham's like production last year,

825
00:45:58,200 --> 00:45:59,799
Speaker 1: it adds up to like a J. Green. I mean

826
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 1: this a man that was out there producing. I mean

827
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:05,720
Speaker 1: he was okay, he was. He made some big plays

828
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 1: and you're not going to get a lot of verticality

829
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:12,279
Speaker 1: on the gray Beard can go down the field. And

830
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,759
Speaker 1: I don't want Antonio Brown. That's my thing. That all right,

831
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:16,880
Speaker 1: And that's great. But you know who did want to

832
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown and his team, Tom Brady. So I think

833
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the goats opinion. Not anymore. I

834
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 1: mean not anymore. I do trust Antonio Brown is a

835
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:27,440
Speaker 1: deep He's a very versatile receiver, Antonio Brown, But I

836
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 1: trust them more as a deep threat than a j

837
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,839
Speaker 1: Grain or Julio Jones at this state. You don't think

838
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:35,200
Speaker 1: that the Antonio Brown situation with Bruce Arians kind of

839
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:38,840
Speaker 1: played at least a small role in the Tom Brady saga.

840
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 1: What that that had the coach had absolutely no control

841
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 1: over his players. I don't think Tom Brady has actually

842
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 1: was looking. I think never wanted Antonio Brown there. He

843
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 1: actually said that publicly, and then he was looking for

844
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:56,239
Speaker 1: a reason. I mean, I think Antonio Brown was hurt,

845
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 1: you know, I mean he didn't practice all that week. Uh.

846
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 1: I don't think it was like some phantom and I

847
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:03,400
Speaker 1: think it was probably the like giving up in the

848
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 1: middle of the game and then sending a bunch of

849
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 1: Instagram posts that Tom Brady. I don't want to be

850
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 1: the guy who's defending Antonio Brown, but I think that

851
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: it may have played a little bit more of a

852
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 1: rule Julio just pure player, uh, pure skill level of

853
00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:24,359
Speaker 1: what we saw. He might be the guy that would

854
00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:25,839
Speaker 1: get the boot. I was gonna ask you that if

855
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 1: you would swap, But I don't want Antonio Brown on

856
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 1: the team anymore. Alright, let's finish off the offense. Then

857
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 1: we'll take a break and hit the defense tight ends

858
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 1: Gronk uh and Jared Cook and uh, I love I

859
00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,680
Speaker 1: love this combo Gronk. You know he's saying he's not

860
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 1: ready to commit about playing another season football, but we

861
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: know what he's doing here. He just doesn't want to

862
00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:47,879
Speaker 1: be involved with boring Todd Bowles zoom calls and he'd

863
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,839
Speaker 1: rather be to play with the Gray Beards and Jared Cook.

864
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:55,200
Speaker 1: Evan he remains a compelling target who can get into

865
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 1: a playmaker's groove every once in a while. Yeah, these

866
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 1: are the same two tight ends that I ended up with.

867
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 1: Uh just Smith on Eric Ebron who would have given

868
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 1: us some depth, but he just turned twenty nine. One

869
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:10,000
Speaker 1: of these guys that has been around forever and you

870
00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 1: know it's still really young. I think Cook is good

871
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 1: to have on your team. You know you're in a

872
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:19,440
Speaker 1: red zone situation. Um, you're looking for someone that can

873
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 1: just like drop a perfectly placed gino. Smith has or

874
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,719
Speaker 1: maybe or maybe have like an illegal procedure on a

875
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 1: great play to one of your wide receiver area. That's

876
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:31,960
Speaker 1: Jared Cook in a big spot has had moments. Check

877
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 1: out that playoff game. How many games do the Great

878
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,759
Speaker 1: Beards have to play? We're playing a full schedule. It's

879
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:41,160
Speaker 1: a full games, so you don't okay, you don't cut

880
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: the money breaks at all, just you know, because the

881
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:48,800
Speaker 1: age that's that's inappropriate. Offensive line. I got Dwayne Brown

882
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,960
Speaker 1: on the left side at the left tackle blindside spot,

883
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 1: Quentin Spawn the cast off of Cincinnati, Matt Paradise at center,

884
00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 1: Darryl Williams at right guard, Eric Fisher at right tackle.

885
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,200
Speaker 1: I think this is another all time best positional group

886
00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 1: to the gray Bear Gray Beards. Uh Evan, I don't

887
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:08,360
Speaker 1: think this is, you know, a group of all pros,

888
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:10,480
Speaker 1: but a bunch of steady guys and Dwayne Brown who

889
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 1: has the resume to be all pro, you know, and

890
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:18,240
Speaker 1: also J. C. Trader is still out there at center,

891
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 1: and um Riley Reef is still out there at right tackle.

892
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 1: Like I know, this probably sounds like hyperbole, but I

893
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 1: think that if we get with these seven guys or

894
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 1: so that we've named, it could be better than some

895
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,440
Speaker 1: of the offensive lines in the actual NFL. There's no

896
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:36,480
Speaker 1: question this is better than the Panther's offensive line right

897
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:40,879
Speaker 1: now by far? Is so sad? I mean preparative center? Yeah,

898
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,920
Speaker 1: maybe bringing Trader? What do you think, Dan though Trader

899
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:48,320
Speaker 1: NFL p a president um pushing. You know, he's pushing

900
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:51,160
Speaker 1: for a lot of players to ask for guaranteed. Are

901
00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 1: you a little worried about what he might bring in

902
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:56,200
Speaker 1: for players rights? Are you a player friendly owner of

903
00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 1: the group? Well, I don't know. I don't approve of

904
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 1: locker room lawyers. If here, he would be the definition

905
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:05,200
Speaker 1: of it. But at the same time, I value him.

906
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:09,080
Speaker 1: He's an educated guy. He's obviously, um well educated on

907
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,719
Speaker 1: these issues. So I don't I like bringing in people

908
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 1: that have different thoughts. This team is very, very uh

909
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 1: open minded on a lot of levels. Let's take a

910
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 1: break at the defense. All right, here we go. It's

911
00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:24,680
Speaker 1: hit the edge. Melvin Ingram, Justin Houston, Jerry Hughes, j

912
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 1: p P. Here is a stat greggy that really jumps

913
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,120
Speaker 1: out to me. I know we talked about how JPP

914
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:33,080
Speaker 1: disappeared down the stretch, but this guy was a Super

915
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,600
Speaker 1: Bowl champion in a huge part of that winning team.

916
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:38,960
Speaker 1: He ranked dead last among a hundred and eight qualified

917
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:43,399
Speaker 1: edge rushers according to PFF last year, dead last. I'm

918
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,960
Speaker 1: giving him the old fresh start reset button with the

919
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 1: gray beards, but I cannot ignore that's that either Yeah,

920
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:53,280
Speaker 1: he'd probably be the one. The other three great picks

921
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,000
Speaker 1: for the gray beards, Ingram, Houston, Hughes, those guys are

922
00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 1: in We're in my top one oh one, couple of

923
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:01,640
Speaker 1: them in my top fifty. Still still out there. I

924
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:07,279
Speaker 1: think I would replace jpp Um Everson Griffin maybe still

925
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:11,080
Speaker 1: out there. Throw him in there. Mario Addison good, good

926
00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:16,359
Speaker 1: locker room guy. We know Mark has the relationship with him. Yeah,

927
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:20,600
Speaker 1: that's a good one. No shortage, no shortage of options here.

928
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 1: We we we did lose as you mentioned, Klais Campbell,

929
00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 1: and we it looks like we're about to lose Melvin

930
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 1: Ingram potentially to the Dolphins. But I mean, look, there's

931
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:31,360
Speaker 1: a reason that all these guys are out there, and

932
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:35,120
Speaker 1: it's because of their age and their their production has

933
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 1: been waning. Um, I'm not too optimistic about this d line.

934
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:43,440
Speaker 1: A lot, a lot of big names, but not a

935
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:45,120
Speaker 1: lot of recent productions. Well, if I can get a

936
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 1: few more guys, you know, rotationally here, maybe we can

937
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:49,920
Speaker 1: get We have to play this right the days of

938
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,279
Speaker 1: Jason Pierre Paul playing of the Snaps. We gotta we

939
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 1: gotta max that way, we gotta minimalize that that can't

940
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:59,320
Speaker 1: feel like though you're hitting on like an inefficiency in

941
00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 1: the NFL market here. I mean Justin Houston and Hughes

942
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:08,960
Speaker 1: now would I would throw into this mix. Keeps signing

943
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:12,040
Speaker 1: one year deals and they're worth a lot there end

944
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:14,399
Speaker 1: up playing better than a lot of these young guys

945
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:17,880
Speaker 1: who get the big country. I think that when we

946
00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:20,080
Speaker 1: get to the interior defense of my chem Hicks is

947
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:23,239
Speaker 1: a guy that can still play, and he's he's in

948
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 1: a but he's been hurt a lot, but he can

949
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 1: still play. I just I don't know about Justin Houston

950
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,160
Speaker 1: and even Pure Paul. I mean, his production was way down.

951
00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:35,280
Speaker 1: It's kind of the poster boy of what I'm talking about.

952
00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:37,320
Speaker 1: You can't tell me that he hasn't been one of

953
00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,520
Speaker 1: the best values in the NFL the last couple of years.

954
00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:44,439
Speaker 1: Just sits around. Yeah, you're worried about the edge. Yeah,

955
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:46,840
Speaker 1: on my interior, Chiem Hicks. As we said, we got

956
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:52,440
Speaker 1: to replace Calias Claias, Calias, lynn Vell, Joseph and uh

957
00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 1: Dominican Sue, who, by the way, also get to put

958
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,440
Speaker 1: on the cover of the media guide. That helps put

959
00:52:57,520 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 1: some meat in the seats. Also these name brands, so

960
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 1: it's good to meet in the seats in the seats

961
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 1: have they started offseason voluntary? Also, they're just working their

962
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:10,399
Speaker 1: asses off since February. A J. Johnson, Dante high Tower,

963
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:17,000
Speaker 1: Anthony barr My linebackers. Any thoughts on that group? Connie Silva? Silva,

964
00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 1: what do you think of them? I just pulled up

965
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:25,359
Speaker 1: this article. It's okay, it's all right, it's not it's

966
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:29,040
Speaker 1: not horrible, it's not embarrassing. I gotta say it wasn't

967
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 1: overly familiar with A. J. Johnson's work before you brought

968
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 1: it up, but he did start a lot of games

969
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:38,040
Speaker 1: over the last few years. Donta hide Towers a leader

970
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:41,279
Speaker 1: in the locker room, no doubt. Maybe maybe he's looking

971
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:45,839
Speaker 1: for a new challenge team captain, do you have Well,

972
00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 1: that's a good question. A lot of leadership, of leadership

973
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 1: would have been of leadership. Yeah. A J. Johnson has

974
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,919
Speaker 1: a checker in history. Um, but got into the league

975
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:57,920
Speaker 1: and got started late, but was a starter for Vic

976
00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:00,359
Speaker 1: Fonzi a last year. But it's reminding me back into

977
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 1: him back in on that that used to be like

978
00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 1: a diamond and the rough type guy. Um, here's my

979
00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:10,840
Speaker 1: secondary and it's this is very interesting too, because cornerback

980
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:14,359
Speaker 1: Greg you know, um has long been an achilles heel

981
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:17,440
Speaker 1: of the Graybeards because forgot about running back. You got

982
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 1: these old corners that are just getting roasted. It's it's

983
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,360
Speaker 1: not good. But now we have Stephan Gilmore, who you

984
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 1: put him in man coverage on the outside, put him

985
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:26,560
Speaker 1: on an island, let him do his thing, don't get out,

986
00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 1: don't overcomplicated. Put him in the right scheme, and we will. Uh.

987
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 1: He's a lockdown number one to me, Steven Nelson, he's

988
00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:35,440
Speaker 1: an undersized grinder on the opposite side, he'll take care

989
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,759
Speaker 1: of business. Bryce Callahan put him in the slot. I'm

990
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 1: feeling good about that. And then you rounded out with

991
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,719
Speaker 1: Jack Rabbit Jenkins and Joe Hayden is a veteran presence there.

992
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 1: I feel really good about the corners and I've never

993
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,680
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna be able to mask our upfront

994
00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:56,800
Speaker 1: pass rush uh bereftness with our our coverage ability on

995
00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:59,960
Speaker 1: the back end. I mean, Stephron Gilmore somehow made the

996
00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:03,160
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl playing only nine. That was stupid. He was

997
00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:07,440
Speaker 1: playing the last couple of weeks. He was good. He

998
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 1: was good when he played. I mean he was good.

999
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 1: Literally and he played like thirty snaps a game for

1000
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,919
Speaker 1: seven games. And they had a bunch of young dudes

1001
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:16,920
Speaker 1: that they had there too, that they weren't mixing. Okay,

1002
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 1: but I think Stefan Gilmore can still play. Stephen Nelson

1003
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:26,200
Speaker 1: is fine, you know. And I've always liked Bryce Callahan

1004
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,880
Speaker 1: as a slot corners, just he can never stay healthy.

1005
00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:31,360
Speaker 1: I do not want to dig into our depth and

1006
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 1: have to rely on Jack Rabbit Jenkins, you know. So

1007
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:36,520
Speaker 1: these guys gotta stay healthy. But I like how we're

1008
00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:38,440
Speaker 1: looking early in the year. Didn't you better watch out

1009
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,480
Speaker 1: because Steven Nelson he reportedly visited the Texans, so you

1010
00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:44,040
Speaker 1: might be losing him. I won't because once a gray beard,

1011
00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:46,600
Speaker 1: always a gray beard. Once it goes live on the site,

1012
00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:50,000
Speaker 1: it's over. You talked about on this pod. It's interesting

1013
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:53,680
Speaker 1: to see Dan as a GM start to adopt some

1014
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:57,200
Speaker 1: NFL philosophies here, like the Ravens, maybe the Dolphins in

1015
00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 1: previous years, you know, building the defense back to front.

1016
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:03,719
Speaker 1: This is this is it's a strong secondary umbrella. You're

1017
00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:05,680
Speaker 1: gonna have six guys out there every snap. This is

1018
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:08,160
Speaker 1: this is. This is a better secondary than some in

1019
00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:10,200
Speaker 1: the NFL. Thank you. For noticing that this is more

1020
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:11,840
Speaker 1: corners than I've ever had in the roster. But I

1021
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 1: understand the way the least uh and this is this

1022
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 1: is Tyrone Matthew at safety. So you're telling me the

1023
00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 1: Graybeards here in the middle of April have Honey Badger

1024
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:27,520
Speaker 1: and Steph Gilmore on the roster. Pinch me, Evan pinched me? Yeah,

1025
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:32,759
Speaker 1: pinch me, No, I agree with you. Look I like

1026
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:37,320
Speaker 1: our back end. Actually have to pinch him. It's an expression.

1027
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:41,480
Speaker 1: You're you're you're in Chicago. It's it's impossible even if

1028
00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:46,520
Speaker 1: you were here, you wouldn't pinch me. Rodney McLeod our

1029
00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:50,000
Speaker 1: other safety just signed with someone that well not before

1030
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:55,360
Speaker 1: this article went live. Always a gray Beard. Finally Special

1031
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:58,799
Speaker 1: Team Sam Fiking. That's that's a dart throw. I wish

1032
00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:00,880
Speaker 1: I could sea bass in there, but that is with

1033
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:03,839
Speaker 1: the cow the Colts. We should just put the people

1034
00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 1: should be aware of that. And Thomas Morris dead is

1035
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:08,680
Speaker 1: my punter. I believe he's been on the Gray Beards

1036
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:11,680
Speaker 1: for like eight straight years and he just signed a

1037
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:15,040
Speaker 1: contract with the Dolphins. But it is what his coaching staff,

1038
00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer get in that big chair. You deserve it,

1039
00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:20,360
Speaker 1: and I like his style. He's gray beards all the way.

1040
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning got on the horn and called the old

1041
00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 1: Zeuser and said, hey, this Adam Gaze. You want to

1042
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 1: give him another shot? And I did not want to down.

1043
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:33,960
Speaker 1: I gotta put my foot down here. Man, we're not

1044
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:38,600
Speaker 1: doing this, all right, Conia, We're not doing this Adam Gaze. No, no, Well,

1045
00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:42,080
Speaker 1: Peyton said that he's misunderstood and deserves a new chance

1046
00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:46,439
Speaker 1: with a new roster. You don't think being nice? Okay?

1047
00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:49,320
Speaker 1: What does Peyton care about the gray beards like he

1048
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:53,520
Speaker 1: cares our offensive coordinator? Oh okay, I'll get on the

1049
00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 1: horn with him. Vic Fagio at d C. I love it.

1050
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:58,040
Speaker 1: And then I always have Mike west Off as my

1051
00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:01,360
Speaker 1: special teams coordinator. Always Havny four years young. I think

1052
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:07,440
Speaker 1: you could have a repeat of when the Houston Oilers

1053
00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:11,400
Speaker 1: coaches on the sideline was a Gilbride and and Buddy

1054
00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:18,520
Speaker 1: r Foio and Zimmer both China. At some point someone's

1055
00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:20,920
Speaker 1: throwing a bunch. I love it, and think about you

1056
00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:23,160
Speaker 1: feed Zimmer a couple of beers on the team plane.

1057
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:26,240
Speaker 1: The Kirk Cousins stories that you're gonna get. Oh, he's

1058
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:29,200
Speaker 1: got a lot to tell. Final evaluation. Like I said,

1059
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,440
Speaker 1: I have him a tenant seven. We're going to the dance,

1060
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:34,040
Speaker 1: and uh, that's putting a lot of faith obviously in

1061
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,880
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick coming back from this hip injury. But I

1062
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:40,760
Speaker 1: just think it's a really solid roster. And again, as

1063
00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:43,640
Speaker 1: I always say, and West used to be brutally honest,

1064
00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:45,200
Speaker 1: and I was happy that he was. He would hit

1065
00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:48,960
Speaker 1: me with two and fourteens one in fifteens, very on

1066
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:55,080
Speaker 1: the rag. I want everyone's seventeen game evaluation starting with you, Greg.

1067
00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:59,880
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna go four and I actually I

1068
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:05,680
Speaker 1: think that's higher than most years. Maybe we'll go five

1069
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:11,000
Speaker 1: and twelve. I think as always injuries four to five.

1070
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:14,720
Speaker 1: I think injuries are always a concern. I think you're

1071
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:18,600
Speaker 1: very slow at the linebacker position, the front seven. I

1072
00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:24,040
Speaker 1: love Gino um building an offense, understand building an offense

1073
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:26,960
Speaker 1: around Gino throwing the ball forty times a game. It's

1074
00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:30,560
Speaker 1: gonna have its ups and downs for sure. All Right, Connie, Okay, Greg,

1075
00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 1: thank you for your honesty. I appreciate it. I'm going

1076
00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:36,480
Speaker 1: to go is apologize from the outburst. Okay, I'm sorry

1077
00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:39,240
Speaker 1: that I think the gray Beards are going to have

1078
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,000
Speaker 1: a losing record, but okay, they're going to go eight

1079
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:45,439
Speaker 1: and nine, all right, I could live with eight nine.

1080
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 1: That would be the greatest Gray Beards record ever, I believe,

1081
00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:54,120
Speaker 1: so we should have. Yeah, Ricky, can you check pro football.

1082
00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:56,440
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone's even projected you to win eight

1083
00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:59,240
Speaker 1: games until you did ten this season, so that I

1084
00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:02,479
Speaker 1: think that's a record. All right, Evan, break the tie.

1085
01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:05,600
Speaker 1: I have one one guy. Well, I got one guy

1086
01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:08,360
Speaker 1: saying it's a great team. It's me or a good team.

1087
01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:12,200
Speaker 1: Greg says they're going to be brutal team in the league.

1088
01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:14,920
Speaker 1: You're drafting like four, four and thirteen is top five

1089
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:17,960
Speaker 1: draft pick. Yeah, you'll be top five, okay, and Connie's

1090
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:19,360
Speaker 1: got me in the middle of the pack. But on

1091
01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:21,760
Speaker 1: the outside looking in, I'm giving you an extra win

1092
01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,880
Speaker 1: that that was five and twelve. Where do you come down,

1093
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:27,760
Speaker 1: Mr Silva, Well, you know, eight and nine in a

1094
01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:30,840
Speaker 1: league where almost half the damn teams make the playoffs,

1095
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:34,000
Speaker 1: Like we could sneak in back door, put us, put

1096
01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:36,760
Speaker 1: us in the weakest division. We got a shot. But

1097
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:38,800
Speaker 1: I think that I think the sports books would set

1098
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 1: are over under wind total at like four and a

1099
01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:47,000
Speaker 1: half maybe five maybe five, And I would absolutely take

1100
01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:49,680
Speaker 1: the over. And it sounds like all take the over,

1101
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:53,440
Speaker 1: bang the over. Well Greg would say that it's not

1102
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:56,760
Speaker 1: the smart play. Yeah, I think Vegas had it nailed.

1103
01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:00,680
Speaker 1: They usually do. Uh for for an half seems about

1104
01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 1: and you should and this if this affects you, grave

1105
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:05,960
Speaker 1: digger behind the glass, we will. We were in Toronto

1106
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:08,800
Speaker 1: this year. We're the Toronto Graybeards and we are in

1107
01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 1: the a f C South little geography lesson. They're not great,

1108
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:13,960
Speaker 1: but that's the way it is. And we have replaced

1109
01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:16,640
Speaker 1: the Texans because you know who's going to complain? Well, yeah,

1110
01:01:16,640 --> 01:01:20,160
Speaker 1: as Greg said, what's the point, Yeah, what's the point? Evan,

1111
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,440
Speaker 1: You've said it all. I mean, it's a tradition like

1112
01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:28,120
Speaker 1: no other. My roster Consigliari And you've said it all.

1113
01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:32,520
Speaker 1: And you can sing some too if you would like. No, no, no, no, no,

1114
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:38,400
Speaker 1: check out Evan on Twitter at I believe it's even

1115
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:43,000
Speaker 1: silver right. How do you do you feel guilty for

1116
01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:48,200
Speaker 1: helping to make like Adam Levitan obscenely wealthy and and

1117
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 1: and talking about it a lot. You know, this is

1118
01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 1: the monster you've helped create, Evan, Oh, I don't even

1119
01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:58,800
Speaker 1: know how to respond to that, but thanks so much

1120
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:02,040
Speaker 1: for having me on the show, you guys every year,

1121
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:04,720
Speaker 1: and hopefully you'll bring me back for the Fantasy Extravagant.

1122
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:07,520
Speaker 1: You know, you know you will get the invite. We

1123
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:09,200
Speaker 1: need the big fish. And notice how he did not

1124
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:14,200
Speaker 1: He didn't deny that Levitan is very wealthy tweets about it.

1125
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:18,240
Speaker 1: You know, he's he's running the game. And guess who

1126
01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 1: runs that site with Leviton, That's what I'm saying. So

1127
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:24,560
Speaker 1: that must mean Silva himself is now extremely wealthy. Look

1128
01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:27,240
Speaker 1: at you, so what is your net income right now?

1129
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 1: At Evan? All right? Thanks again, You're not going to

1130
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 1: become like a crypto n f T bro like because

1131
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,520
Speaker 1: I like at him so much, But I'm concerned. I'm concerned.

1132
01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:42,360
Speaker 1: I'm worried about that too when when it comes to him.

1133
01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:44,600
Speaker 1: All right, there he goes, Evan Silva. It's very important

1134
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:47,080
Speaker 1: that we keep an eye on the business side of

1135
01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:51,800
Speaker 1: things in our industry and uh owner talking the great

1136
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 1: darts right now, right, and if those guys are raking

1137
01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:56,920
Speaker 1: in the cash, that's something we need to be plugged

1138
01:02:56,960 --> 01:02:59,400
Speaker 1: in on. Just put it like that, I get it,

1139
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:04,080
Speaker 1: all right, that was good. Now, Colleen, I think I'm

1140
01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:05,360
Speaker 1: trying to think the best way to do this. I

1141
01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:09,240
Speaker 1: think what we should do is we're going to stop

1142
01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:11,880
Speaker 1: down for just a couple of seconds and I'm going

1143
01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 1: to ask you or tell you where to actually jump

1144
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:18,280
Speaker 1: in because it was a failure to community or I

1145
01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 1: think we do it live right now and like SNL style,

1146
01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:24,480
Speaker 1: I just try and follow. No, we have to get that.

1147
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:26,120
Speaker 1: That's what we did the first time, alright, And I

1148
01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:28,600
Speaker 1: think should we get Greg in the mix, Yes, you

1149
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 1: have to do it. Okay, we're going to take a

1150
01:03:33,680 --> 01:03:36,680
Speaker 1: quick break here and going to come back and we're

1151
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,480
Speaker 1: going to hit this all right, and we're gonna get

1152
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:39,880
Speaker 1: it right. We're gonna knock out of the park and

1153
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,720
