So, I mean it's a panel 176 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 3: of legends and then port us So I'm kind of like, 177 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 3: but but of course that is just a panel of 178 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 3: professionals who are outstanding at what they do. 179 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 6: We got to talk to Marcus Jones. 180 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 3: He came up and you know, talked a little bit 181 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 3: about his season and you know, like all rookies, having 182 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 3: here in his second year, being a little bit more 183 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 3: assimilated into what they're doing. And and Logan Mankins came 184 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 3: up so and I've never really got to meet him, 185 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 3: but man, what just his hand is like just engulfed 186 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 3: my hand. He's just such a giant guy. But but 187 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 3: he was a lot of fun. Congratulating him on his 188 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 3: nomination for the Hall of Fame. I asked him a 189 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 3: little bit about, you know, what was it like going 190 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 3: up against Rabel, and you know, he expressed a lot 191 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 3: of respect for Rabel, and you know, I still roof 192 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 3: of the Titans. 193 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 5: I love that. In terms of the panelists, you know, 194 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 5: in the past, you know, Teddy Bruski was on the 195 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 5: panel and he famously came out strongly for Rob Gronkowski 196 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 5: that year. Oh yeah, you know, being from Arizona and 197 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 5: all that stuff, where you know, Karen Field, any of 198 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 5: the up there like strongly advocate for any particular player. No. 199 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 3: I mean it was funny, Fred, because honestly, my opinion 200 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 3: was like I felt like we spent more time talking 201 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: about the team as currently constituted, and then Field Yates 202 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 3: kind of ran through some prospects and Reese was very 203 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 3: much like, I don't really know anybody. 204 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 5: Yet, and and why are you up here now? 205 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 3: And and you know, Karen talked a little bit about 206 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 3: some of the Alabama guys. So it was just funny 207 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 3: because I was, you know, I I think I can 208 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 3: do an okay job of you know, working some of 209 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 3: the general guys in. But I was imagining Evan in 210 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 3: that situation, who probably would have been like a caged 211 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 3: bull where they're like, you can't say anything. 212 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 6: About any of the draft guys. But you know we did. 213 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 3: We did get a chance to talk about the big 214 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 3: positions cornerback, wide receiver, and offensive tackle, and I think 215 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 3: everybody you know sees a lot of it. Similarly of 216 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 3: you've got a mix of the tackle guys, you've got 217 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: some real promise with the cornerbacks. If the right guy fell, 218 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 3: still some opportunities later and is one of those wide 219 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 3: receivers worth it. I thought it was interesting in the 220 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 3: Grow press conference that Alan Siegel like specifically just Zay Flowers. 221 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 3: There's been such a ground swell about him, and you know, 222 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 3: he didn't say anything, but he said more than I 223 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 3: thought he would, which was kind of describing Zay uh 224 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 3: just as as such an explosive player. 225 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 5: He just said, you know, he's just a good receiver. 226 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 5: He didn't want to label him, you know, inside outside 227 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 5: slot whatever. 228 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 3: But you can feel everybody's just kind of got that 229 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 3: like that that hot and bothered about Zay. 230 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 5: But you know, I'll tell you just sticking to the receivers, 231 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 5: I did, you know, start doing my own research, you know, 232 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 5: and I can see why the experts are saying there's 233 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 5: a lot of good receivers but not a lot of 234 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 5: first round talent. Yeah, you know, I can see that. 235 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 3: Yeah it's true. I mean I don't I don't think 236 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 3: any of those guys really in a in an average 237 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 3: year would go beyond earlier than twenty probably. I mean, 238 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 3: I'm sure people can talk themselves into you know, Jackson Smith, 239 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 3: Ninjigba and and Za Flowers and you know, maybe Quentin Johnson, 240 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 3: but there's just isn't that like a lave Garrett Wilson, 241 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 3: you know, I mean, all those guys ended up being 242 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 3: really really good players. And I think even the good 243 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 3: players in this year might be limited a little bit 244 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 3: and what they can and what they can do, or 245 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 3: at least in the questions coming out. But you can 246 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 3: see why everybody loves a Flowers. It's you know, obvious 247 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 3: what he could possibly bring to this offense. 248 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean he he seems to be pretty dynamic. 249 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 5: But again, like you know, he's small, he's small, Yeah, 250 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 5: and he's slight, and you know, I do think though 251 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 5: that he's quicker than Thornton. You know, Thornton is is 252 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 5: slight too, but he's taller. Yeah, but I think that 253 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 5: you know, Jay Flowers in small spaces, is you know, 254 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,599 Speaker 5: quicker than Thornton. Yeah, but you know, like how is 255 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 5: he going to do when press coverage? You know, how 256 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 5: is he going to separate at the line and all 257 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 5: that that's still to be determined. 258 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 3: I think that's questions with with all these guys, whether 259 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 3: you're talking about those two guys or you know, Josh 260 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 3: Down's a guy that I've I've mentioned. You know, there's 261 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 3: there's just a number, but they're all all maybe small, 262 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 3: all maybe not quite as fast as you would like. 263 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 3: I think Jay Flowers has the most potential to be 264 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 3: the total package, but everybody else there there's always going 265 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 3: to be an issue with some of these prospects. And yeah, 266 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 3: you know, I think it's it's just you can read 267 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 3: between the lines with the questions, they're actually growing. Ben 268 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 3: Volin was just like, look, do you feel like you've 269 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 3: done enough around mac right now? And you know they 270 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 3: the company line, and well, we're continuing to build. We're 271 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 3: continuing to do these things, of course, and who knows, 272 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 3: there might there might still be some movement. But at 273 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 3: the same time, it's it's just a little bit like, man, 274 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 3: I wish that there was like, you know, those four 275 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 3: or five elite receivers, like there have been the last 276 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 3: couple of classes where we could be salivating over multiple 277 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 3: guys who could potentially fall, rather than like could we 278 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 3: maybe get Zay there? Do we maybe trade down to 279 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 3: twenty and try to get them there? You know, it's 280 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 3: just it's a little bit complicated. But I'm kind of 281 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 3: with Evan where it's like, if you really need the guy, 282 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 3: just go get them. 283 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 5: All right. So I want to talk a little bit 284 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 5: about some NFL news, you know that's happened over the 285 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 5: last few days. But before we do that, you also 286 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 5: mentioned new location for the media workroom. They're doing construction 287 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 5: here people. You might have seen pictures online already. You know, 288 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 5: Patriots are completely redoing the north end of the stadium 289 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 5: with the largest video board outdoor video board in the 290 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 5: NFL new club, you know, and new and where the 291 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 5: media workroom is that's part of this construction, so they 292 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 5: had to relocate you guys, it looked smaller. Yeah, it was. 293 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 6: I mean it's a set up. 294 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 3: I mean it was a weird day because there were 295 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 3: so many interviews going on at once, so you had 296 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 3: to spread out a little bit and sometimes they would 297 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 3: do that and just in the hallway out here, which 298 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 3: was seemed like it made the most sense. But but 299 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 3: it looks like it's it'll it'll work fine for you know, 300 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 3: for a space for a year and then I guess 301 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 3: we'll see where we're at. I mean, I think the 302 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 3: media probably likes it. There's more room to probably stretch 303 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 3: out in those little back private rooms than there was before. Okay, 304 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 3: maybe a little bit. And then they had I got 305 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 3: a banana, They had a little food spread out for 306 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 3: us and everything. So yeah, it's uh maybe not maybe 307 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 3: not quite as direct route down there into it but 308 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 3: that we had before. 309 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 5: But Tamara's just came in, she's getting settled. I'm going 310 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 5: to ask her her perspective on what the coaches had 311 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 5: to say. Hello Tamara, Hi, So you just came from 312 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 5: the access what were your highlights. 313 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 9: I feel like I'm still processing Matt grow Yeah, Like, 314 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 9: did you say for the whole thing? 315 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 3: Dude? I popped out just a little bit early. 316 00:13:53,080 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm just I'm intrigued. One why, I thought, I 317 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 9: don't know if you heard the question about since we're 318 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 9: running most of the players back on defense and we 319 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 9: only swapped on a few players on offense that were 320 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 9: kind of what most people thought is equivalent to each other, 321 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 9: if he thought that personnel wasn't the issue last year, 322 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 9: And so I was like, hmm, that's actually you know 323 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 9: something we've talked about on here, Like you know, is 324 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 9: Jacoby and Juju the same player? Like? Are the swaps 325 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 9: the same? And we're running back the defense. So was 326 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 9: the coaching the issue and not the personnel? And He's 327 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 9: like no, he was like, we were an eight and 328 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 9: nine team last year. We have to get better. So 329 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 9: everything that we're doing, we're trying to get better. And 330 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 9: you know that does start with the draft, with which 331 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 9: Robert Kraft said over the summer at the owner's meetings, 332 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 9: And so I thought it was very interesting that he 333 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 9: doesn't agree with the notion that, you know, we're not 334 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 9: running it back. We are trying to make changes. We 335 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 9: are trying to get faster and stronger, and that starts 336 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 9: with the draft, And so I thought that was intriguing. 337 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 9: And then I also thought someone asked about Cole Strange. 338 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 9: Did you hear about that? 339 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 5: No? 340 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 3: I like that one. 341 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 9: Someone asked about Cold Strange and Taekwon Thornton and if 342 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 9: you know, there was pressure essentially for this year's draft 343 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 9: to make better picks. Ursus like what what He's trying 344 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 9: to figure out the wording for. He was like, I'm 345 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 9: trying to figure out what the word is to describe 346 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 9: those two, but random is what to say? 347 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 3: Random? 348 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 9: Like, is there pressure, you know, to make a better 349 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 9: pick in the first and second round? And he's like, yeah, 350 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 9: there's always pressure. If you're gonna pick somebody in the 351 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 9: first round, you have to be really confident about them 352 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 9: because that's a four to five year investment. So he 353 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 9: was like, you know, when we're making those picks, we are, 354 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 9: you know, doing what's best for our team, which you 355 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 9: know is the standard deal answer. But I'm I'm intrigued. 356 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 9: I'm still processing everything that was said, but I do 357 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 9: feel like this draft is going to be really different. 358 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 5: Then, you know, Matt said that, you know, he equipped 359 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 5: after one question that you know, this is only really 360 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 5: my second year doing this, you know. Yeah, kind of 361 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 5: laughed about it, but I thought he was he's been 362 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 5: involved longer than that in the draft room. 363 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I think so. I mean, he's been 364 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 3: around for a while. But yeah, I make it a 365 00:15:59,000 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 3: little bit of a. 366 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 5: When he said doing this like I'd like to know 367 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 5: what exactly this. 368 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 6: Is kind of running the show? Yeah, having the. 369 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, because like last year's draft, in my opinion, probably 370 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 5: wasn't as good as the year before. You know, when 371 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 5: you had Mac and you had bar More and you know, 372 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 5: but then you know, this last year's could turn out 373 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 5: to be better. If if Thornton and you know, the 374 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 5: Jones guys, you know, it could turn out to be okay. 375 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 5: But I thought that the year before was a more 376 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 5: solid draft in sure, And so who was running that 377 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 5: draft as opposed to last year's draft? 378 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it felt weird. It felt like, hey, 379 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 3: twenty twenty one, this is what we've been waiting for. 380 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 3: You tack the Alabama player, you trade up for another 381 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 3: Alabama player, you get, you know, some familiar programs, guys 382 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 3: from Oklahoma. 383 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 5: I do. 384 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 6: I mean, I think it's an interesting point. 385 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 3: And I you know, I bring back to the draft 386 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 3: party when we were kind of talking about this class, 387 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 3: and you know, I find myself feeling like, I think 388 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 3: the jury's largely still out, you know, of how much 389 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 3: of an impact this class can have. I mean, there's 390 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 3: certainly some intrigue with you know, Thornton's speed and you know, 391 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 3: getting a full camp and you know, I'm sure he's 392 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 3: probably added some weight. But you know, Jack Jones, is 393 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 3: he going to be a start? 394 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 5: I think I think, well, but I think he's a 395 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 5: solid player. Solid, but I think Marcus Jones could be 396 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 5: He's the you know, the diamond, the ones. You know, 397 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 5: if those two guys you know, play well, then it's 398 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,239 Speaker 5: a good draft all of a sudden, you know. 399 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 3: And if you know, and if Cold Strange, it's will 400 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 3: you notice it? Will you notice it? 401 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 5: Is going to be fine? 402 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 6: He's going to be fine. 403 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 3: But you know, it's like, I mean, fine, well, yeah, 404 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 3: And that's that's what I found myself thinking with with 405 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 3: grow talking today about how much pressure is on you 406 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 3: for those first round picks, and it was hard not 407 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 3: to immediately think of Cold Strange and think you know, 408 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 3: what kind of performance do you need to get out 409 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 3: of him for him to be up to that draft 410 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 3: that it's like it's like. 411 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 5: He's your starting guard for ten years? Is that okay? 412 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 5: I don't you know, he's not all pro, but he's 413 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 5: just starting guard. He's a fixture at left guard for 414 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 5: ten years. Is that okay? 415 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 3: I say maybe not, just because if in the first round, 416 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 3: I just I'd like to have at least a Logan 417 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,959 Speaker 3: Mankin's type presence like it just and I and I 418 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 3: love what Cole Strang like. I love his attitude, his 419 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: he's such a pain in the ass to play. I 420 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 3: always love that in guards, and I think he's one 421 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 3: of those kind of extra business guys after the whistle 422 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 3: and then you know, the whistle blows and he just stops. 423 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 3: Like I just I love that style of him. But 424 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 3: I just want to see it show up more as 425 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 3: you know, toughness being consistently delivered in the run game 426 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 3: and he's road grading guys and you know those kind 427 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 3: of things. So I I just I mean, look, he's 428 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 3: going to be a ten year guard. Nobody's going to complain. 429 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 3: But I also just you know, always going to be 430 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,439 Speaker 3: like Joe Toney, like, well we had Joe Toney. 431 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 5: Well they screwed up on Joe Tune. 432 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 3: They just kept Joe Touney, and then you know, we 433 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 3: wouldn't be in this position to begin with. So I 434 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 3: go back to that, But I I just I still 435 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 3: think there's a lot of questions to be answered about 436 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 3: this class. 437 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 6: Marcus Jones. 438 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 3: Really my question with him is just what's the ceiling? 439 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 6: How high? 440 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 3: How much of could he be like one of these uh, 441 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 3: you know, three fase NFL superstars that does it all 442 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 3: and it's you know, like the face of a franchise 443 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 3: kind of a guy. I think he could be. 444 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think he could be. No, that's I'm excited 445 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 5: about him. 446 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 9: I'm looking back through mycrow notes and I would say 447 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 9: two things. My actually, my biggest like eyebrow raise was 448 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 9: I love how he's Oh he says he's using Bill 449 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 9: O'Brien as a resource just with all of his knowledge. 450 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 9: Obviously he's seen all those guys at Alabama for the 451 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 9: past three years and also seen the rest of the 452 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 9: SEC for the past three or so years, and so 453 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 9: I think that's great because like, that's the type of 454 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 9: caliber player that I want you to draft. In the 455 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 9: first round. I want you to draft a guy that's 456 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 9: like a nighbor and guy that's good that's played against 457 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 9: good talent, and not you twa Chattanooga. I just don't 458 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 9: want that in the first round. 459 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 3: I mean I was just wondering though, like what is 460 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 3: Bill O'Brien's expertise with like the offensive pieces of the 461 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 3: Like shouldn't he know the defensive pieces of the sec 462 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 3: around Alabama a little better? Like how much time is 463 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 3: he spending really studying I think both of the other teams, 464 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 3: you know, just something like it'd be interested, like what 465 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 3: kind of inputs you get from him, like, oh, man, 466 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 3: we couldn't block this guy, you know, Nolan sp we 467 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 3: couldn't block this guy, or what you know, those kind 468 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 3: of examples rather than oh, this guy gave our defense 469 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 3: a lot of trouble and it's just interesting. But I mean, 470 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 3: like he said, the guy has done everything. I mean, 471 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 3: he knows what he's seeing. So it's a it's a 472 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 3: great resource, and so is. 473 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 5: He should be a great resource to mac Row. He 474 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 5: should also be a great resource to hopefully Bill Belichick. 475 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 5: I mean going to Penn State, you know, you know, Houston, Texans. 476 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 5: Then going over to Alabama then coming back to the NFL. 477 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 5: That's a lot of experience to draw from, you know, 478 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 5: different types of situations, you know. I like I said 479 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 5: before of Patricia and Joe Judge, even though that they 480 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 5: didn't do well as head coaches, just having that experience 481 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 5: helps them. Now, it didn't help them in the roles 482 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 5: that they were put in, but it just just you know, wisdom, 483 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 5: It helps you with wisdom. 484 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 6: It's almost like you forget about it. 485 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 3: With Bill O'Brien. 486 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 6: Like Bill O'Brien, I. 487 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,119 Speaker 3: Think my biggest excitement is just that he is an 488 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 3: experienced offensive coordinator. And we said that so many times 489 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 3: last year, which I agree, Like, I mean, I don't 490 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 3: think that that's anything controversial to say that a coach 491 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 3: that has been a head coach in the league doesn't 492 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 3: have far more experience to draw upon than somebody who 493 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 3: hasn't been. So you know, but then you remember, like, 494 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 3: oh my god, he was in Houston forever. I mean, 495 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 3: he came here and played against us in the playoffs, 496 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: like he's he's seen all sides of it. So I 497 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 3: think that's just again that all feeds into just seeing 498 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 3: this presence up there today and saying, you know, we 499 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 3: got we got a real guy now in charge of 500 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 3: the offense. And you know, there's not gonna be any 501 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 3: excuses this year. If it doesn't look good, it's gonna 502 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 3: be probably because the players just aren't that good. 503 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, and when you're looking at you know, 504 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 9: the draft board, I guess this would be a great 505 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 9: time to have Evan here too. With the way Matt 506 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 9: grow described what he's looking for in a first round pick, 507 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 9: just like character and player wise, they want a guy 508 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 9: that's gonna come in and immediately be able to make 509 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 9: an impact, not like five years later being making make 510 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 9: an impact, but like right now, it's like looking at 511 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 9: the positions of the player, like the Patriots need. Is 512 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 9: that wide receiver that you need to come in right 513 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 9: now and be great that you draft at fourteen? 514 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 5: Or is that corner or is like it used to 515 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 5: be that wide receivers didn't make in median impact, But 516 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 5: that's changed over the last ten years, I'd say in 517 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 5: the NFL as more and more college programs are running 518 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 5: offenses that are you know, transferable to the NFL. 519 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, seven on seven proliferation, all that stuff. 520 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 9: And then I also like when he mentioned that, like, 521 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 9: you know, what's it take to get like the ball 522 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 9: rolling and everyone's starting to pick wide receivers. He's like, 523 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 9: all it takes is one, right, So once the first 524 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 9: team picks a wide receiver in the first round, then 525 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 9: everyone's like, okay, I need to go get one. Yeah, 526 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 9: And so I thought that was interesting too. It's like, 527 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 9: I wonder, if you know that does start at pick ten, 528 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 9: that does that mean potentially Zay could be our pick 529 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 9: at fourteen? Yeah, I don't know. 530 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 5: I think I think the first run will be on cornerbacks. 531 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 3: I think, I mean, I think, I mean, I'd probably 532 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 3: split it between the tackles, and I mean, I just 533 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 3: it's you can talk yourself in and out of any 534 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 3: of these positions. As far as what's going to go above, 535 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,239 Speaker 3: I mean, I think the cos I'm looking at, you know, 536 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 3: Peter Schrieger's mock draft here where he's got Hendon Hooker 537 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 3: going eleventh overall like a move like that, which nobody 538 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 3: really has. But you know, it just takes something like 539 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 3: that to happen that no one's projecting, and it kind 540 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 3: of screws everything up and it's gonna push somebody down. 541 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 3: Who's it gonna push down the board, and I think 542 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 3: we spend so much time talking about those positions. I 543 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 3: think the edge is that spot where if they're gonna 544 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 3: go away from one of those three spots, I think 545 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 3: it might be one of those random edge guys that's 546 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 3: just get you pushed down. 547 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 9: I could see Hendon Hooker that high. Not because I 548 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 9: love him because he went differty intech, but I like 549 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 9: Hendon Hooker in the sense like, if you don't have 550 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 9: an immediate quarterback need, you could wait for his acl 551 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,959 Speaker 9: to heal, he could be groomed by whoever your starting 552 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 9: quarterback is and then be ready to go at some 553 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 9: point during the season and hopefully get some reps in. 554 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 9: But if you have an immediate quarterback need, obviously no, 555 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 9: because he's not gonna be ready. 556 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 3: I mean they seem like they're gonna have a need 557 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 3: sooner than later, like you know with Tannehill. 558 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 6: Like is he long for this? 559 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 9: Yeah? 560 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 3: I mean I know Hendon Hooker's older too, and that's 561 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,479 Speaker 3: you know, part of the evaluation of is he going 562 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,439 Speaker 3: to be ready to go? And if he's not, how 563 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 3: old is he going to be by the time that. 564 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 5: He is yeady to go? 565 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 9: And then staying on the same quarterback topic, the topic 566 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 9: of are you going to draft a quarterback this year? 567 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 9: Like the question that was asked is like, well, I'll 568 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 9: always like to keep you know, the competition going in 569 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 9: that quarterback room. So he was like, I don't see 570 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 9: the issue with always evaluating the quarterbacks every single year, yep, 571 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 9: because that makes the competition in the room better. 572 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 5: Listen, while Brady was here, they drafted a quarterback almost 573 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 5: every year. 574 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that was that was his example was when 575 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 3: he was a scout, when we had twelve here, it 576 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 3: was never, Hey, we're good on quarterback. You don't have 577 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,439 Speaker 3: to look at those guys. But I did find it 578 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 3: interesting Tamar's point of hitting that competition theme, and it's 579 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 3: a little bit of what Bill said about is Matt, look, 580 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 3: everybody's going to get a chance to compete. It's the 581 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 3: same company line about that position. So I always think 582 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 3: it's good business to draft quarterbacks. I would not be 583 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 3: opposed to taking one again. I know we've talked about 584 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 3: the kid from UCLA dtr a bunch. Yeah, I just 585 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 3: think people get so worked up, and I when you 586 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 3: take one in like the second or third round, of course, 587 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 3: then it's probably a reflection on how you feel. But 588 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 3: you know, those day three day guys that you're picking up, 589 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 3: trying to develop, keep on the practice squad, give you 590 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 3: a look at certain points. I just think you can 591 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 3: never have too many of those guys in the building. 592 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 9: Yes, as insurance, and I really want if you are 593 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 9: going to bring in competition in the couarterback room, I 594 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 9: want it to be someone with a different skill set. 595 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 9: So that's why I said DTR and I talked about 596 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 9: Troy Brown about this today when we were talking to them, 597 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 9: is like, how much of like, you know, an impact 598 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 9: do you think you'll have on like the draft class 599 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 9: with you guys being able to have hands on like 600 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,439 Speaker 9: work with these guys, And he was like, yeah, it 601 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,120 Speaker 9: was so great to not just be able to watch 602 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 9: them on film, but to see them in person, see 603 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 9: how they are in the meeting rooms, see how they 604 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 9: are off the field. Like he was like, that experience 605 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,919 Speaker 9: was something that like is so valuable. And so that's 606 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 9: why I'm thinking, like, if they are going to pick one, 607 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 9: like maybe DTR is yeah. 608 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 10: One. 609 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 3: Well, my big takeaway from Troy Brown was unfortunately he's 610 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 3: going back into the Sharon Flag Football League so I 611 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 3: was like, hey, Troy, you're going back in share and 612 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 3: he's like, oh yeah, like no, not again, and. 613 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,679 Speaker 9: He was he was asked like two questions about Juju 614 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 9: two and he's and you know, he did emphasize that 615 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,959 Speaker 9: the yards after catch is huge from Juju. 616 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 3: You know who else I talked to was Ross Douglas, 617 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 3: who I didn't really get a chance to meet last year, 618 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 3: but he absolutely for me, stole the show on the 619 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 3: Shrine Bowl, miked up like just such great energy.

I sent him to 693 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 5: Jonathan Crawt. 694 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 9: And so I love that her story just starts with that, 695 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 9: just like she really she didn't know him, She just 696 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 9: sent him a DM and the rest is history. 697 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 5: She's going to have a lot more clients now. 698 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 9: Yes. And then also this made me think like is 699 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 9: Lamar looking at this and thinking like, Okay, should I 700 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 9: surrender and get an agent because I could have gotten 701 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 9: a deal. 702 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: Like that done? 703 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 3: Yeah? 704 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 9: Or am I going to continue to just let mom 705 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 9: be my agent? But it's like I wonder how much 706 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 9: sooner his deal would have been done if he had 707 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 9: someone like Nicole. 708 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 5: I think it might have been a little sooner. Yeah, 709 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 5: I did see a rumor that the Ravens recently offered 710 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 5: him two hundred million guaranteed. 711 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 9: Now, so, but and what's hurts guaranteed? 712 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 5: Like one eighty something? Maybe I'm a little bit confused 713 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 5: and hurts his deal. I'm getting different numbers and what's 714 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 5: guaranteed and what's not and all that stuff. That's always 715 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 5: the case with these huge contracts. 716 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 3: Some people come out and highlight what they want to highlight, right, well, 717 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 3: but and then all of a sudden, well, actually it's 718 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 3: only a one year, but it's big, and I think. 719 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 9: Is it bigger than Deshawn's. 720 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 5: Well, I'm not sure in terms of the overall guarantee. 721 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 5: I think Deshaun's is more. But in real like real cash, 722 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 5: real cash or something like that, like he's number two 723 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 5: right now or something like that. It's confusing, but it's big. 724 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 5: It's big and good for him. There's a guy that like, 725 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 5: you know, just head down and just did what he had. 726 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 9: To do, did what he had to do. His club 727 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 9: like sees the value in him and put the pieces 728 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 9: around him to make him successful. 729 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, and they saw it, and then they rewarded him. 730 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 5: And they saw what they had in him, and they 731 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 5: let him loose last year and they went to the 732 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 5: Super Bowl as a result. You know, he was an 733 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 5: MVP candidate for sure last year. Uh So that was 734 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 5: it was big news. And then of course the trickle 735 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 5: down to Lamar. So now what happens with Lamar? You know, 736 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 5: does he look at that and say, Okay, you know, 737 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 5: I don't need necessarily need to break the bank, but 738 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 5: if I come in around Jalen, then I'm okay. Or 739 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 5: does he say no, no, I've been around longer than him. 740 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 5: I should be making a lot more like the price. 741 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 6: I just went, oh my god. 742 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 9: I did think it was interesting in Obj's press conference 743 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 9: after he signed the other day that he someone asked 744 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 9: him like, are you signing here because you know that 745 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 9: you know, some inside scoop essentially on Lamar signing, And 746 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,479 Speaker 9: He's like, well, no, I wouldn't say that.

Not really, not really, but 797 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 5: I just. 798 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 3: Wonder, like, and I just using Hurts as the example, 799 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 3: because he was the latest of what you know is 800 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 3: in two years is he like, you know, this isn't 801 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 3: really a top five deal anymore, you. 802 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 5: Know, after gets paid well, that's why I'm saying Kansas 803 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 5: City should be proactive and just keep my homes at 804 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 5: the top of the heap y, you know. 805 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 9: But I also think with Hurts in his style of play, 806 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 9: I mean, same with Lamar, there comes that risk of injury, 807 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:08,919 Speaker 9: so you kind of have to see in two years 808 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:09,720 Speaker 9: where is his body. 809 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 6: That's a really that's a really good point. 810 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:12,840 Speaker 3: I mean I think that's a big part of what 811 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:14,759 Speaker 3: you saw with a lot of like the Lamar speculation 812 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,879 Speaker 3: was I mean agent stuff aside being you know, they 813 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 3: want to just do a two year deal or a 814 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 3: three year deal, just something quick, so like you know, 815 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 3: we can find out and then get out if you know, 816 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 3: you start to break down or this play isn't sustainable. 817 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 5: Quarterbacks should want security, oh yeah, you know, so that's 818 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 5: where those that guarantee is huge. You know. So I 819 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 5: would say that right now Jalen has security. Oh yeah. 820 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 9: And I think when it comes to Burrow though, I 821 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 9: think he's worth two hundred million guarantees. 822 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 5: Absolutely, I mean definitely. 823 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 4: You know. 824 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 5: The other factor that teams, you know, play into this 825 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 5: is not just the performance in the field, but the 826 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 5: marketing impact. Oh yeah, you know, selling season tickets, and 827 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 5: there's other impact of having that player and that goes 828 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 5: into what their contract is. 829 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 11: You know. 830 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:08,959 Speaker 3: It is funny with Burrow though he's he's there's something 831 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 3: special about that guy, yeah, because you bring him up 832 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 3: just like I mean even we were out at the 833 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 3: NFL when means you're talking to the girl from from 834 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 3: the Lions teep. You know, we're all just you know, 835 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 3: talking about quarterbacks and like Burrow comes up and everybody's 836 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 3: just like. 837 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 9: You know, there's something about everything. 838 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 3: He's got the total package. 839 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 5: I mean, the two of you are too young. But 840 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 5: I mean when Joe Namath was in his heyday, he 841 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 5: was wearing the fur coats and you know he was 842 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 5: he had the swag and you know he'd be at 843 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 5: the pool side with like four women around him. 844 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 9: He was the guy it was, you know, it was 845 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 9: it was over. Once Joe Burrow sat on the couch 846 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 9: with the cigar after he won the National championship. It 847 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 9: was done. 848 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 3: And you'd hate a lot of people that did that. 849 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 3: Like a lot of people could pull that move and 850 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 3: you'd be like, oh, look at this guy. But there's 851 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 3: just he gets away with it. 852 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 5: He looks like Macauley Coke. 853 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 6: We never got into drugs like right, clean mcaulay Culker. 854 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 5: Would have looked like right. 855 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 9: But I will say the one thing that I think 856 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 9: about with all these like major deals for quarterbacks is like, 857 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 9: for a team like the Bengals, how are you gonna 858 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 9: keep everybody? Because they have a lot of great pieces, 859 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 9: Like you obviously want to keep Burrow and Chase, But 860 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 9: how much is Chase gonna cost? 861 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's simple, really draft, Well, that's that. I mean, 862 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 3: that's that's it. 863 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 5: Draft so that when these guys leave, you got people 864 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 5: behind it. 865 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,399 Speaker 3: Once you get into that tail spin of all right, 866 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 3: we missed on a couple of drafts. We were gonna 867 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 3: have to go into free agency and take take those risks. 868 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 9: You know. 869 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 3: It's I mean, I think anything you talk about with 870 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 3: the Patriots and their sustained excellence, I think you can 871 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:41,439 Speaker 3: probably tie it to specific drafts that they were able 872 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 3: to hit in. 873 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 6: You know, two thousand and ten. 874 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 3: Twenty twelve, those got star players to keep it going 875 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 3: and to rebuild it again. And you know, if that 876 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 3: had to hit on those drafts, it would have we 877 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,800 Speaker 3: probably would be Tenure'd be twenty thirteen, and we'd be 878 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,279 Speaker 3: sitting here doing the same exact thing where we don't 879 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 3: have a Gronk, we don't have an Edelman anymore. We 880 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 3: still were trying to Deon Branch and Randy Mawson wilst Welkern. 881 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 3: You know, it would be the same thing if they 882 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 3: didn't find those players. 883 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 9: Well, Uston, I think that what you just described is 884 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 9: it being a hit that needs to be this season, 885 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 9: Like it needs to be like a hit, not just like, oh, 886 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 9: we're gonna be fine, but it needs to be like 887 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 9: a hit. 888 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 5: Well it does, and more so because you don't have 889 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 5: the elite quarterback to cover up mistakes, you know, Burrow Mahomes, 890 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 5: you know, herm leeway for those all those guys, they're 891 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 5: going to keep winning as long as those guys are healthy. 892 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 5: You know, they may not be the dynasty the Patriots were, 893 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 5: but they will always be in contention with that elite quarterback, 894 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,799 Speaker 5: I think, you know, and then how far you go 895 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 5: it gets into like how well do you draft? You know? 896 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 3: But I think to me, Mahomes proved that it doesn't 897 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,359 Speaker 3: really matter, you know, as long as they're I mean 898 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:50,439 Speaker 3: to that, it's really gonna just come down to for them. 899 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,799 Speaker 3: It's it's like what I felt like with with this 900 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 3: team in the mid twenty tens, was just are Brady 901 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 3: Gronkin Edelman healthy, because then I'll give them a chance 902 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 3: against absolutely anybody. And I feel similarly now with with Mahomes, 903 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 3: even if it's you know, just him, he's probably gonna 904 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 3: pull that team to at least a couple of AFC 905 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 3: Conference games, you know, when they have all their best 906 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 3: player got heard and you know he's kind of just 907 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 3: trying to cobble it together like Brady had to do 908 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 3: a couple of times. He's able to do that. 909 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 5: Yep, all right? Eight five five PATS five hundred is 910 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 5: the ace ticking hot line web radio at Patriots dot com. 911 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,240 Speaker 5: Is the email address? Is Paul coming? 912 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 6: There's no, He's on vacation. 913 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 5: Paul's where is he? 914 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 3: Uh? I don't know. He drove there. It's in the South. 915 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, like South Carolina or something like that. South Yeah, 916 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 5: Myrtle Beach, Myrtle Beach, that's is that where he is? 917 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,240 Speaker 3: I think that's the Perlos stopping grounds. 918 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 5: And then Evan is is he writing? 919 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 3: And Evan's gonna write something, then he should be down 920 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,399 Speaker 3: I think for the second half. Second half? 921 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 5: All right, Well, let's get to the phones. We don't 922 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,359 Speaker 5: have to break for food or anything. Right, Paul's not here. 923 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 3: I just got to eat a banana. 924 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 5: All right. Well, we'll take some calls. Let's go to 925 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 5: We'll start with David in New York. What's up, David? 926 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:01,320 Speaker 10: Hey, guys are going good. So I had an NFL 927 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 10: point first, and then I had a Patriots point to 928 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 10: tie it back in. So my first one about the 929 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 10: quarterback contract is I have this opinion, and I don't 930 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 10: like the narrative that just because your quarterback was the 931 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,320 Speaker 10: highest paid quarterback five years ago, it means your contract, 932 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 10: his contract is the steel Now. I mean I came 933 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:20,879 Speaker 10: up with the analogy just like a few minutes ago. 934 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 10: It's like bragging him out buying a big Mac for 935 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,399 Speaker 10: a dollar in two thousand and seven, and now. 936 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:25,919 Speaker 12: It's worth four. 937 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 10: It's like, no, that's what it was, that's what he 938 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:28,880 Speaker 10: was worth. 939 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 13: At the time. 940 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 10: No, but but here's the contract to steel. 941 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 5: But here's the thing. The reason why you can kind 942 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,799 Speaker 5: of say that, though, is because the salary cap goes 943 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 5: up so much. You know, it all factors into the 944 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 5: salary cap. So you know, five years ago that was 945 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 5: a bigger percentage of Kansas City's overall salary cap. Now 946 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,919 Speaker 5: it's a lot less because the salary cap keeps going 947 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 5: up so much, so in a way, it does become 948 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 5: a bargain after five years with the rate of the 949 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,400 Speaker 5: salary cap going up. You know. 950 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm mostly talking about like because I think if 951 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 10: you have the far and away best quarterback in the league, 952 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 10: doesn't really matter what you pay him. I'd give him 953 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 10: homes whatever he wants. But if you're talking like the 954 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,880 Speaker 10: two to top ten range, like, I don't know, Like 955 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 10: it just doesn't seem like. 956 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:18,280 Speaker 11: It's much of a steal. 957 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,799 Speaker 3: It's still I mean, I think you just know it's 958 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 3: going to be the biggest, probably the biggest contract on 959 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 3: your team, and it is what it is. And how 960 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 3: you know if it's one percentage of. 961 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 10: My Patriots point. I think that people are putting too 962 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 10: much emphasis on the flashy positions like the wide receiver, 963 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 10: the tight end, that sort of thing. And while I 964 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 10: think we still need a wide receiver one, I just 965 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,400 Speaker 10: I don't I would like to see it, But at 966 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,320 Speaker 10: the same time, I don't think it's a smart idea 967 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 10: to draft as they flowers at fourteen when there's a 968 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,320 Speaker 10: Joey Porter Roderi Jones available. 969 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:54,799 Speaker 9: Yeah. 970 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think a lot of people as well. Yeah, 971 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 5: a lot of people agree with you. Yeah, thanks David. 972 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 5: Speaking of wide receivers, I don't have my beast Dane 973 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 5: Brugler's beast, but I was going through the wide receivers 974 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 5: and there's a kid, I think late round from West Virginia. 975 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:15,400 Speaker 5: I forget his name that I really like. Hmm, yeah, 976 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 5: I'll get that name. I put a sticky note there. 977 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 5: I'll look it up when I get it. 978 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:21,240 Speaker 9: I'm on the search. 979 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, Virginia attackiack Virginia or West Virginia. 980 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,919 Speaker 5: I might have been West Virginia. That's right, you're Virginia Tech, right. 981 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 9: West Virginia is one of our arrivals. Actually, hok, he's 982 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:36,359 Speaker 9: not Mountaineers, I will say. On Peter Schregger's board up 983 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 9: there for wide receivers, they was like number six going 984 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 9: to like the Giants, which I really don't like that. 985 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 9: I don't know six overall, No, yeah, like six overall 986 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 9: going to the Why Well, I'm like. 987 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, he's there. I guess his thinking is we just 988 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 5: gave Daniel Jones a truckload of money. We got to 989 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 5: give him something. 990 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 9: Is it Bryce Ford Wheaton? Is that his name? 991 00:41:59,080 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 5: That might have been it? 992 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:01,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, from West Virginia. 993 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, what is he? Like? Sixty three? 994 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,759 Speaker 9: He's an intriguing late round prospect. 995 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, that's the guy. That's the guy. That's that's 996 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 5: the guy. 997 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 9: You're right, six four twenty one pounds. 998 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:18,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the guy. I had him a little less weight. 999 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 9: But yeah, I mean yeah, that's probably like his pre pre. 1000 00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, one of the French gyms. But I'd take him late. 1001 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 5: You know. Let's go to Todd in North Carolina. What's 1002 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:34,880 Speaker 5: up Todd? 1003 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 14: Hey, guys, I could listen to do some tomorrow all 1004 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 14: the time. They need to do some sports audio books. 1005 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 12: I think that's right. 1006 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 13: Voices, Okay, all right. 1007 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 14: Good work, Fred, You got the right guys there. My 1008 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 14: thing is I got two quick ones. 1009 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 11: Number one. 1010 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:50,720 Speaker 12: How many people can. 1011 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 14: We protect on that practice squad? Because, like you said, 1012 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 14: Judn't is getting older, some of these other guys getting older. 1013 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 14: We might need to have some people there for future development. 1014 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 14: I know you could protect like two last year was 1015 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 14: it or is it three? 1016 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:02,840 Speaker 11: I don't know. 1017 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 5: I thought there was a change a lot of people. Yeah, 1018 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:08,879 Speaker 5: there was for offensive lineman or I forget what it 1019 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,839 Speaker 5: was and they've made it easier. But there's like ten 1020 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 5: people on the practice squad now, right right, more than 1021 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 5: that markets. Yeah, so it's like, I don't know, protecting 1022 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 5: him doesn't really bother me. You just bring other people in. 1023 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 14: Yeah, And the next thing is a quick question about 1024 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 14: your old protege there Fred. Mister Hart actually came out 1025 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,959 Speaker 14: and said that he feels that Bill has has lost 1026 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 14: a bit of his fastball with some of the things 1027 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 14: he said and some of the stuff he's done and 1028 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,399 Speaker 14: some of the retractions he had to make. So I'll 1029 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,280 Speaker 14: take that answer off the air, but I'm really curious 1030 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 14: to what you guys think about mister Hart. 1031 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 5: Okay, thanks. I didn't hear the context in which he 1032 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 5: said it, and so I'm only going with what Todd says. 1033 00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 5: I think Bill's in a different position. I think, you know, uh, 1034 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 5: he hasn't been in the position you know for twenty 1035 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 5: years while Brady was here, and so you know, he 1036 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,800 Speaker 5: he's forced to address things that he hasn't had to address, 1037 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,760 Speaker 5: and so we're seeing, you know, the twenty five year comment, 1038 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 5: you know, which was way out of character. Even a 1039 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 5: guy like Teddy Bruski came out and said that's not 1040 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 5: something he I would ever think he would have said. 1041 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 5: You know, so when Teddy says it, it's not just 1042 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 5: us dummies, you know, raising our eyebrows. 1043 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:22,279 Speaker 3: And he's had to come out a couple of times 1044 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 3: and clarify, yeah, I'm meant which is you know? 1045 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,720 Speaker 5: So I think it's the situation forces you know, different 1046 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 5: questions and of course different answers. And you know, Bill, 1047 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 5: Bill was never good, you know in terms of like 1048 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 5: handling the media like he was good in deflecting them 1049 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 5: and just basically putting his hand out and saying an 1050 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 5: I'm I'm not answering, you know, but now it's tougher 1051 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 5: because you're not winning. When you're winning, you can do that. 1052 00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 5: But when you're not winning, now you you know, it 1053 00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 5: does it's not a good look to refuse to answer. 1054 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 5: So it's a it's a new situation and we're seeing 1055 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 5: new answers. 1056 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 3: I think that's something that's kind of underrated but really 1057 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 3: obvious of just how hard it is when you're not 1058 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 3: doing well as a sports team and just everything gets 1059 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:17,760 Speaker 3: drummed up to a bigger level, and you know, it's 1060 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 3: it's also just that last year was a mistake, and 1061 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think there's any other way to 1062 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 3: cut it than you know, it was a mistake the 1063 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,839 Speaker 3: way that that year was handled offensively, and I think 1064 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 3: we're still kind of waiting to see how that accountability 1065 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 3: comes forward, and you know, do we see it when 1066 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:36,399 Speaker 3: we get out there on the field and feel like, well, 1067 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,640 Speaker 3: things have been rectified. You're never going to pin him down. 1068 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:41,440 Speaker 3: But it's just a lot harder when things aren't going 1069 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,799 Speaker 3: great and you can't just say, well, look, we're winning games. 1070 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 3: So I don't know what you guys are complaining about now. 1071 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,920 Speaker 3: It's there's nothing to go to and people are right, yeah. 1072 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:54,800 Speaker 5: So I mean different circumstances, you know, reveal different things. 1073 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 5: And so we're seeing a side of you know, Bill 1074 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 5: Belichick that we haven't seen. Now you go back to Cleveland. 1075 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 5: A lot of a lot of what happened there can be, 1076 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,320 Speaker 5: you know, accountable to the fact that he wasn't experienced 1077 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 5: as a head coach. He had never done it before. 1078 00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 5: But I mean he had a real tough time with 1079 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:17,239 Speaker 5: the media back then. He got really surly with them. 1080 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,280 Speaker 5: You know, there's a couple of comments I won't repeat 1081 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:23,719 Speaker 5: here that you know, where he famously said and they 1082 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 5: just weren't winning, you know. Plus he had a little 1083 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:31,359 Speaker 5: bit of a quarterback controversy back then, so you would 1084 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:33,759 Speaker 5: think that he had learned a lot since then. But 1085 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 5: you know, with when it's hard, like I don't want 1086 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 5: to be a psychiatrist, but when you are as smart 1087 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 5: as Bill Belichick is, and he is smart, like he 1088 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 5: could be the CEO of any company in any you know, genre, 1089 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,279 Speaker 5: because he's that smart, he would just learn it. Like, 1090 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 5: he doesn't have patience with us folk. He doesn't, you know, 1091 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:02,800 Speaker 5: and that's that's not a good thing. That's not an attribute. 1092 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:06,839 Speaker 5: I'm not saying that that's something he should be lauded over. 1093 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,120 Speaker 5: It's it is one of his faults. It's one of 1094 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:12,960 Speaker 5: his weaknesses. He just doesn't have patience with people because 1095 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 5: he is smarter than most people. And that's just a fact, 1096 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 5: that's not just him thinking it. 1097 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 3: He is certainly with football especially. But I have a 1098 00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 3: question for the group would be what do you think 1099 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 3: was the average length of regime of the Dolphins, Bills, 1100 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 3: Jets during the twenty years of the Patriots runs? 1101 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,759 Speaker 6: You know, how many times did they all? 1102 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 3: Right, we got a new quarterback, we got a new coach, 1103 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:37,120 Speaker 3: we drafted a first round quarterback. 1104 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:38,400 Speaker 6: We feel really good about this. 1105 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,720 Speaker 3: We got hammered six or eight straight times by the Patriots, 1106 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,840 Speaker 3: and now we're gonna blow it up, you know, because 1107 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 3: that's somewhat to what the Patriots are right now. So 1108 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,200 Speaker 3: you know, I mean, it's it's hard to try to 1109 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 3: stay the course with those kind of you know things, 1110 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 3: and I mean just bills. I mean they're just going 1111 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,920 Speaker 3: to quarterback names, coaches names, going through my head of 1112 00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 3: how hard it is to you know, maintain your belief 1113 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:01,800 Speaker 3: and a head coach and a quarterback and a whole structure. 1114 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:03,920 Speaker 3: When all right, we're in your three. Now we're in 1115 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 3: your four. We're still losing to the Patriots. You know, 1116 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 3: now it's time to blow it up. It's you see 1117 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 3: what they're up against, and it's it's a rising tide 1118 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 3: until they you know, get back to that point where 1119 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:15,760 Speaker 3: you feel like, all right, now we're really in that conversation. 1120 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 3: But we know some of those teams never got there. 1121 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 5: No, you're in you're always in that catch up mode. 1122 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:25,280 Speaker 5: And having you know, back then, having Belichick and Brady 1123 00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 5: in your division forces you to make decisions that you 1124 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 5: wouldn't otherwise make. It makes you become impatient. Your fans 1125 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:36,359 Speaker 5: are impatient, ownership's impatient, your sponsors are impatient because there's 1126 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:39,800 Speaker 5: you know, like it's like this constant pressure to get better, 1127 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 5: and like you said, you make you make, you make 1128 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,839 Speaker 5: decisions that you know, the Patriots didn't have to make, 1129 00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 5: whether it's coaching or you know, players, and it's it's 1130 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 5: it's tough, and you get into this vicious cycle of 1131 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 5: just churn. 1132 00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:59,239 Speaker 9: I feel like the teams that have made it out 1133 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:02,320 Speaker 9: of that cycle and they're actually doing well took risks, 1134 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 9: big risks that ended up, you know, benefiting them. Look 1135 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 9: at the Bills, I mean, and I'm scared to say, 1136 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,759 Speaker 9: look at the Jets. Maybe maybe in due time. Look 1137 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 9: at the Jets. 1138 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 5: When you talk about risks, Sean McVay, young guy Rams, 1139 00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 5: you know, you could consider that at risk and it 1140 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:18,360 Speaker 5: paid off for them, you know. 1141 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 9: And I think even like some of the players that 1142 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 9: they're paying money for or like trading for, I think 1143 00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:26,280 Speaker 9: that the Patriots, unfortunately they are gonna have to start 1144 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 9: doing that. They have to look at it and be like, okay, 1145 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,880 Speaker 9: we can't we can't rest in our morals like we 1146 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 9: have to do something differently to get back to where 1147 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 9: we used to be, and I think that starts with 1148 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 9: taking risks and paying people, trading for people, and not 1149 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,000 Speaker 9: just sitting back. I mean, I know, like we're saying 1150 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,280 Speaker 9: the draft is huge, but I still think we shouldn't 1151 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,880 Speaker 9: miss out on those opportunities to take risks when they 1152 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:47,440 Speaker 9: are available. 1153 00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 6: I like the taking risklings. 1154 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 3: I mean I also say teams that stink and then 1155 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 3: hit on their high round draft, you know, so like 1156 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 3: the Bengals, you know, so like I give, I totally 1157 00:49:58,120 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 3: think the Bills are a good example of your point, 1158 00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:02,400 Speaker 3: where you know, Josh Allen had some wartz and they 1159 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 3: and you know, they had to have some kind of 1160 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 3: projection of what he was going to be. Where's a 1161 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,359 Speaker 3: team like the Bengals, They just they stunk, but they 1162 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 3: made those picks. 1163 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,000 Speaker 6: And I think that's what's hard for the Patriots is 1164 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:13,520 Speaker 6: that are they. 1165 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 3: Ever gonna stink bad enough to get those top ten 1166 00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 3: picks to really get those impact players, because if they don't, 1167 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:22,400 Speaker 3: to your point, they've got to be a little risky. 1168 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 3: They've got to be smart. They've got to figure out 1169 00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 3: exactly what they need and be targeted with what they 1170 00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:27,720 Speaker 3: ends a little bit of what you heard from Grow. 1171 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:29,439 Speaker 3: We'll see if they actually do it. 1172 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:31,280 Speaker 9: And I like what he said today that he said 1173 00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:34,200 Speaker 9: he is a veil. They know what they need to do. 1174 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:35,879 Speaker 9: If they do need to trade up or trade back, 1175 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:37,759 Speaker 9: they said they have looked at those So I thought 1176 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,440 Speaker 9: that that was interesting, and I would be interested to 1177 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 9: see them trade up and go get someone they really 1178 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:45,080 Speaker 9: want if he's there, like say if a handed hooker 1179 00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 9: or somebody comes out of nowhere and pushes somebody back 1180 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,799 Speaker 9: that they want. But they're like two spots up and 1181 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 9: you need to go get them, Go get them, Like 1182 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:55,320 Speaker 9: if you think he's going to be that difference maker 1183 00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:57,080 Speaker 9: right now, Yeah, and you don't want to miss out 1184 00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:57,839 Speaker 9: on them, go get them. 1185 00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,360 Speaker 5: Grow mention the word conviction. Yeah, if you have the 1186 00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:04,959 Speaker 5: conviction and the consensus. He said, it's great when there's 1187 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 5: consensus on a guy, you know, then go get them, 1188 00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:08,560 Speaker 5: Go get them. 1189 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:10,920 Speaker 9: Don't wait to hope that he's going to get their fourteen. 1190 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:11,880 Speaker 5: Go get him, Go get them. 1191 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:13,359 Speaker 3: I don't I don't know who else I would trade 1192 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:15,960 Speaker 3: up for. To be honest, I like I would trade 1193 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:18,239 Speaker 3: out for Gonzales. I think you know, he's just an 1194 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,840 Speaker 3: all around, do everything, plug him in day one outside 1195 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 3: cornerback kind of a guy. But otherwise it's it's hard 1196 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 3: to really for me to say, I'm not going to 1197 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:28,440 Speaker 3: really probably trade up for any of the receivers. I 1198 00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:30,279 Speaker 3: think some of the I mean, you can make a 1199 00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 3: case if you love Paris Johnson that he is just 1200 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,759 Speaker 3: a you know, a prototypical left tackle type, and there's 1201 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:37,960 Speaker 3: a reason too. But he's also you know, inexperience, So 1202 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:40,640 Speaker 3: there's some questions that I think people would say, oh, 1203 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:42,440 Speaker 3: I'm alright, waiting a little bit. I'm going to get 1204 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:45,720 Speaker 3: another tackle that you know has similar kind of developmental questions. 1205 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 3: So I don't know that would be my question, A 1206 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 3: big good one for Evan maybe when he comes down 1207 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 3: of just you know, what players do you think are 1208 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:54,239 Speaker 3: really worth it to trade up? And I mean worth 1209 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:56,520 Speaker 3: it because I think the Patriots have some holes and 1210 00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 3: I think they have a number of things they need 1211 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 3: to fill on day two. It's hard to say, are 1212 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:03,719 Speaker 3: we going to package forty six and fourteen to go 1213 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 3: up to ten or twelve or something like that. You know, 1214 00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 3: It's just I don't like anybody that much to have 1215 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:11,400 Speaker 3: those two picks. I'd rather trade down and try to 1216 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:12,799 Speaker 3: get multiple picks there in D. 1217 00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 5: Two Williams and Philim. What's up William william Hey? 1218 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:21,359 Speaker 11: How you doing there? 1219 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 5: You are? There? 1220 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 9: Is? 1221 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,160 Speaker 11: Sorry, but I'm sorry about that. I had it on 1222 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 11: and what not. Sorry. I just want to I want 1223 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:29,960 Speaker 11: to start first. I called last week and I was 1224 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:31,839 Speaker 11: kind of a little bit harsh, you know, saying I 1225 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,359 Speaker 11: hate Bill Belichick. It's just that he pissed me off 1226 00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:36,960 Speaker 11: for it. I don't hate him because I wasn't. I 1227 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:38,839 Speaker 11: wasn't raised to hate anybody, you know what I mean. 1228 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:44,319 Speaker 11: I disliked what he did. Yeah, but I don't hate 1229 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 11: Bill Belichick. They's just just the moves and things that 1230 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,479 Speaker 11: he do sometimes just hurts me. So I just wanted 1231 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:54,280 Speaker 11: to just give to give a scenario, just to piggybank 1232 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 11: off of what Mike said. Mike's said, well, you know 1233 00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 11: about giving up draft capital that we'll get this player. 1234 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:01,920 Speaker 11: If you once that player might guess what it's going 1235 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 11: to be. So just give you a scenario real fast. 1236 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:11,120 Speaker 11: If if the Patriots wanted uh JSN Paris Paris Johnson, 1237 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:15,719 Speaker 11: Christian Gonzales or even Devon web Wetherspoon, You're gonna have 1238 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:17,399 Speaker 11: to give up the safe state. You want to trade 1239 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 11: with the Philadelphi Eagles, Okay, be able to you know, 1240 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 11: to get the number ten, I give us the first 1241 00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:25,399 Speaker 11: a third and maybe even first third and maybe even 1242 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 11: a fourth. Is it worth it? Yeah? Yeah, out of 1243 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,160 Speaker 11: those names, take the best pit. I mean, you can't 1244 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:34,359 Speaker 11: lose on even one of them. 1245 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, but I think you named four guys. 1246 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 3: I mean, I think one of those four probably be 1247 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:40,399 Speaker 3: there at fourteen. You know, if you if you're talking 1248 00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:42,560 Speaker 3: about all four of those guys are there at twelve. 1249 00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:44,640 Speaker 6: You know, I'd be okay waiting, I don't. 1250 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:47,320 Speaker 3: I don't see, like, I don't think JSN is worth 1251 00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:49,400 Speaker 3: the whole draft to you know, to do I just 1252 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 3: I maybe could make a case for Gonzales. But he's 1253 00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,360 Speaker 3: not Garrett Wilson. To me, he's not Chris Olave. 1254 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:59,319 Speaker 11: You don't you wait wait wait wait a minute, okay, 1255 00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 11: wait a minute, I got to get some question, have you. Okay, 1256 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:07,359 Speaker 11: he's the he's clearly probably the best out of all them, 1257 00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 11: of the next to Zay Flowers too basically out. But 1258 00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:12,839 Speaker 11: I mean, I'm just saying, well, okay, let's just scoot 1259 00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:14,600 Speaker 11: him out le's scoot the wide receivers out because we 1260 00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 11: know the wide receiver clans ain't really that great though, 1261 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,239 Speaker 11: not like last year is basically. But I'm saying for 1262 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 11: Paris Johnson though, because you got Tennessee, Texas and the 1263 00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:27,319 Speaker 11: Jets they're going to take him, You've got to jump 1264 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:29,439 Speaker 11: in front of three of them. They get either him 1265 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 11: Christian or Christian guns out. How about that? Is that fair? 1266 00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:33,680 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1267 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:35,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, And I think that's totally, you know, worth 1268 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:38,279 Speaker 3: worth a conversation and consideration for sure. I mean, I 1269 00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:41,160 Speaker 3: think those are two big important positions in need that 1270 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:43,399 Speaker 3: I think if you trade up to get those guys, 1271 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:45,279 Speaker 3: you're probably plugging them in for five years and they're 1272 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 3: going to be really good players for you. 1273 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 6: So yeah, I mean I'm with you on those ones. 1274 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 3: I just but after those two guys, that's where I 1275 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:54,040 Speaker 3: start to get a little bit like, well, who you know, 1276 00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:56,239 Speaker 3: like unless maybe you want to talk quarterbacks. 1277 00:54:56,480 --> 00:55:00,839 Speaker 11: But I'm with you all the way. Well, thank y'all, 1278 00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:02,000 Speaker 11: and y'all take here. 1279 00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:09,880 Speaker 5: Okay, all right, thanks William, appreciate it, all right? Just Marker, Yeah, 1280 00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 5: I didn't want to get it all over my fingers. 1281 00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:17,319 Speaker 5: Noah's in Toronto. What's up, Noah. 1282 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 15: I just want a quick question about Marcus Jones. Obviously, 1283 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,359 Speaker 15: he made you know, a lot of splash plays as 1284 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 15: a return around a gadget offense player last year, but 1285 00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:28,719 Speaker 15: I feel like I don't really know how well he 1286 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:31,680 Speaker 15: did as a corner, which is where his value should 1287 00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,480 Speaker 15: be really coming front. So you know, I forget how 1288 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 15: well did he do as a corner last year? And 1289 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:38,400 Speaker 15: what do you guys see his role being on defense 1290 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 15: this year? 1291 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:43,399 Speaker 5: Thanks Noah. I think there were certain situations last year 1292 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:46,760 Speaker 5: where he was playing his true position in inside corner 1293 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 5: on some quick guys where he really did help out. Yes, 1294 00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 5: you know, he really did help out. He did his job, 1295 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,160 Speaker 5: you know, didn't come away with a lot of interceptions 1296 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 5: or anything, but really, you know, kept up with players, 1297 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:01,799 Speaker 5: and you know, I think there were some injuries at 1298 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 5: cornerback and it forced a lot of guys to play 1299 00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:07,120 Speaker 5: positions that they really weren't suited for. But I think 1300 00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 5: if you keep him in a certain role at cornerback, 1301 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,400 Speaker 5: he's going to be fine. Yeah, but then when when 1302 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:17,440 Speaker 5: you add the returnability and the gadget offensive ability, this 1303 00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:19,920 Speaker 5: is a Swiss Army knife guy, you know, Yeah. 1304 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:22,280 Speaker 3: I think he's got to be inside. I mean, I forgot, 1305 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 3: I'm forgetting what game Paula remember, but there was one game, 1306 00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 3: what near the end where he was playing on the 1307 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:28,759 Speaker 3: outside for Mills and yeah, you know, it's right with 1308 00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:31,080 Speaker 3: the guy, but just doesn't have quite the height to compete. 1309 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:33,080 Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's one of the things that 1310 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 3: nobody talks about as much is coming out. He's just 1311 00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:39,759 Speaker 3: outstanding at playing man coverage and sticking with guys, and 1312 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:42,439 Speaker 3: I think we saw some glimpses of it last year, 1313 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:44,840 Speaker 3: but I think, you know, to the point of like 1314 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:48,520 Speaker 3: a Christian Gonzales, where hey, let's get the outside lockdown 1315 00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 3: with you know, maybe a top round rookie pick and 1316 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 3: Jonathan Jones, and you know, then you have the ability 1317 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:57,239 Speaker 3: to really put Marcus Jones in positions to do what 1318 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,480 Speaker 3: he does best, which is, you know, put him against 1319 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:02,480 Speaker 3: these little guys and have him stick. I think if 1320 00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:04,359 Speaker 3: he's able to play in that role, I think he 1321 00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:06,880 Speaker 3: could be one of the best slot corners in the 1322 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:09,719 Speaker 3: league just because of how athletic he is. I think 1323 00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 3: that the sky is the limit for this kid as 1324 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:15,440 Speaker 3: far as what he can do and the excitement he 1325 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 3: can just bring to this team. I think that they need, 1326 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 3: you know, a marketable kind of you know guy who's 1327 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:21,640 Speaker 3: I mean, we had him on the Draft show. He's 1328 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 3: just you know, great kid, really likable. I know he's 1329 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,479 Speaker 3: into music too, and you know, just everything he says, 1330 00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:29,040 Speaker 3: he just he seems like he goes about everything. 1331 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:29,320 Speaker 9: Right. 1332 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 5: I don't think he's ever going to be an all 1333 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:34,760 Speaker 5: pro corner, but he's going to be a great scheme corner. 1334 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:37,040 Speaker 5: Where like you're playing Miami and you got to do 1335 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:40,040 Speaker 5: something with Tyreek Hill and so the plan is, you know, 1336 00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:43,439 Speaker 5: it's Marcus Jones off the line, but he's got help. Yeah, 1337 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:45,840 Speaker 5: you know, so it's kind of that man's zone type 1338 00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 5: of hybrid and you know he's going to be with him. 1339 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,400 Speaker 5: So even if the catch is made, there's not going 1340 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:54,000 Speaker 5: to be a lot of yards after catch. 1341 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:54,480 Speaker 14: You know. 1342 00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:57,360 Speaker 9: Were you in the room with Brian Belichick today when 1343 00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:01,919 Speaker 9: they were asking about filling the void? Yeah of Devin, Yeah, yep, 1344 00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 9: an easy way yeah yeah. And that's why I'm thinking 1345 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:10,520 Speaker 9: fourteen could be a corner, I mean, or just just 1346 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:15,040 Speaker 9: to I don't know, I'm just so torn about missing 1347 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 9: Devon and not having him there and just I just 1348 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 9: don't want them to like fall short in that area 1349 00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,400 Speaker 9: just because they think that they have Like some guys 1350 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:24,360 Speaker 9: like you know, Jalen can play two positions, so the 1351 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 9: guys like that who they're like, oh, we'll be fine, 1352 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 9: like just with a mixture of those of a couple 1353 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 9: of those guys. But he's multiple to fill his role. 1354 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:32,440 Speaker 3: It's just as hard to see. I mean, I can 1355 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 3: see them taking a corner, but I don't know how 1356 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:37,520 Speaker 3: much that really affects replacing Devon. And I think it's 1357 00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 3: gonna be some combination. I mean, he was specifically asked 1358 00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:43,680 Speaker 3: about Mills, you know, comments that he's played safety before, 1359 00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:46,040 Speaker 3: and you know, it's and it's like when I talk 1360 00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 3: to pel Green, I'm like, you know, and he's technically 1361 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 3: the cornerbacks coach. I'm like, you lost Devin out of 1362 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:52,720 Speaker 3: your room. Because they just they all work together, they 1363 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 3: all consider themselves well. I think it's gonna be some 1364 00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:57,760 Speaker 3: kind of combination of everybody chipping in. I just it's 1365 00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:00,240 Speaker 3: I have a hard time seeing if it wasn't a 1366 00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:03,360 Speaker 3: free agent like a Jesse Bates, someone who's very established 1367 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:05,280 Speaker 3: and knows what he's doing. It's hard to see them 1368 00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 3: drafting one of these rookies and being like, all right, 1369 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:10,200 Speaker 3: you got it. You're on the back end of our defense. 1370 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 6: Don't get beat deep. 1371 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,240 Speaker 3: But I will say you look at the twenty twelve 1372 00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:19,240 Speaker 3: season before Devin really moved to this safety role full time, 1373 00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:23,040 Speaker 3: and they were repeatedly torched deep, especially against Seattle. Remember 1374 00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,680 Speaker 3: a couple of those with Tamon Wilson, you know, where 1375 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:28,720 Speaker 3: they were trying to play strong safety types as free safeties. 1376 00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:31,800 Speaker 3: They just didn't have the instincts and the big plays 1377 00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 3: just killed them that year. That's something that we know 1378 00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 3: it can't happen with the offenses that they faced weekly. 1379 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 5: Now, my god, Patty's an Agua. What's up? Patty? 1380 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:45,600 Speaker 12: Hey doing great on vacation with my twins who are 1381 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:46,800 Speaker 12: up from school this week. 1382 00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:47,240 Speaker 3: Nice? 1383 00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 13: Awesome. 1384 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:49,040 Speaker 3: What are you guys doing. 1385 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,320 Speaker 12: We're just chilling. You know, we're gonna we'll probably hit 1386 00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,400 Speaker 12: like a trampoline park later this week. We're going to 1387 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:56,560 Speaker 12: go to the library today. 1388 00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:58,320 Speaker 5: Okay, great, what's the question? 1389 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:01,680 Speaker 6: A vacation? I thought we were somewhere fun. 1390 01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 12: Now it's staycation. So I had a question regarding josh 1391 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:11,480 Speaker 12: Ucha and do you guys see a situation where they 1392 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:15,120 Speaker 12: possibly they lock him up long term because I know, Deuce, 1393 01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:18,880 Speaker 12: you've said it before. I mean this this whole like 1394 01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:22,919 Speaker 12: searching outside when we're not re signing our good own, 1395 01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:27,600 Speaker 12: homegrown talent. And I could see, like Josh, he looks 1396 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:29,880 Speaker 12: like at least the last couple of years sort of 1397 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:32,160 Speaker 12: like Tetrid Twise was like, like, he's sort of on 1398 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:35,640 Speaker 12: an upward trajectory. And you know, if you're gonna lose 1399 01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:38,560 Speaker 12: Matt Judahon in a year or two, like if they 1400 01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:41,000 Speaker 12: do the same thing they did with Steph Gilmore and 1401 01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 12: cut Ties a year early, wouldn't it make sense to 1402 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:48,480 Speaker 12: like lock this guy long term, especially if he's going upwards. 1403 01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:52,320 Speaker 5: It's certainly what Use showed last year was really hopeful. 1404 01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 5: But to me it was just one year. I don't 1405 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,640 Speaker 5: know where the second year comes in, but he had 1406 01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:03,760 Speaker 5: a good year last year. I'm intrigued, you know. I 1407 01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 5: I'd be willing to sit down with him right now 1408 01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:08,920 Speaker 5: and talk about an extension, but I'm not emptying the 1409 01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:12,920 Speaker 5: brinks truck for him yet. You know, he hasn't shown 1410 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 5: to me to be consistently elite outside now. Again, it 1411 01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:19,800 Speaker 5: depends on what he's looking for. You know, if he 1412 01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:22,480 Speaker 5: and his agent are willing to, you know, be reasonable 1413 01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:25,480 Speaker 5: about it. I I I would look to lock him up, 1414 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:30,120 Speaker 5: but I'm not gonna pay him elite edge money yet. 1415 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:31,720 Speaker 5: You know, let's see what he does this year. 1416 01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:35,000 Speaker 3: A lot of unpacked there. I mean, I think just 1417 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:38,280 Speaker 3: worth like thirty percent snap players. I mean, he's he's 1418 01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:40,720 Speaker 3: basically a one down player. He was in his third year. 1419 01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:43,240 Speaker 3: So you know, you always hear them say the more 1420 01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:46,080 Speaker 3: you can do versatility. I mean, he's not a versatile guy. 1421 01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:48,640 Speaker 3: He's a one trick pony. He does one thing pretty 1422 01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,680 Speaker 3: good and you know, certainly had a breakout year last year. 1423 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 3: But it's just hard hard to say, are they gonna, 1424 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 3: you know, pay him for all those sacks? 1425 01:01:57,200 --> 01:01:59,560 Speaker 6: Like I you know, it's such a buyer beware situation. 1426 01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 3: I compare to Mark Anderson when him Andrew Carter were 1427 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:04,320 Speaker 3: here in twenty eleven, and Andrew Carter got hurt. Mark 1428 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,120 Speaker 3: Anderson I think had ten sacks and went and got 1429 01:02:06,160 --> 01:02:08,360 Speaker 3: paid by Buffalo, and you know it wasn't really that guy. 1430 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:11,320 Speaker 3: I mean, it's such a favorable situation for josh Ucha 1431 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:13,560 Speaker 3: where it's basically like, all right, go out there, go 1432 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:15,439 Speaker 3: get the quarterback, and there's not a lot for him 1433 01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:18,080 Speaker 3: to do. And I know over the years we've seen him, 1434 01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,320 Speaker 3: you know, work inside a little bit. They've tried to 1435 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:21,640 Speaker 3: kind of figure out what he can do. 1436 01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:23,520 Speaker 6: But I just I think in. 1437 01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:26,480 Speaker 3: The long term you have to find you know, if 1438 01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 3: you could combine him with Jennings, you probably have a 1439 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:30,400 Speaker 3: pretty you know, the all around guy. 1440 01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:31,920 Speaker 6: But well, you met both just kind of. 1441 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:37,440 Speaker 5: Thirty percent snaps last year, right, I'd say that he 1442 01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:40,880 Speaker 5: did a pretty good job maximizing while he was absolutely 1443 01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 5: but to me, that commands a certain amount of money, 1444 01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:47,960 Speaker 5: Like he's not an every down player, you know, so 1445 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:51,240 Speaker 5: it just depends on what his expectations are. But I 1446 01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:54,080 Speaker 5: think there there's a need for that guy. There's a 1447 01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 5: need for that. 1448 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:56,560 Speaker 3: That's totally the point I was just about to make, 1449 01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:58,040 Speaker 3: like like, it's not you. I don't want it to 1450 01:02:58,080 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 3: sound like he's nothing. Like it's a passing league and 1451 01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:02,000 Speaker 3: if you don't have guys that can get out there 1452 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 3: and get after the quarterback, and certainly he has the 1453 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:07,640 Speaker 3: kind of athleticism to stick with some of these athletic quarterbacks. 1454 01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:10,200 Speaker 6: But you're just you're paying this guy. 1455 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:12,240 Speaker 3: For one down, and I mean, we know around here 1456 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:14,960 Speaker 3: they want four down guys they want, you know, or 1457 01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:17,360 Speaker 3: at least the potential that they might develop. 1458 01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:19,560 Speaker 5: Now, I thought, yeah, you're paying him for one situation, 1459 01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:20,080 Speaker 5: which is. 1460 01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 6: An important situation to get off that field. 1461 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:23,840 Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, But I'd also say. 1462 01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 3: It, and I made this point plenty of times this offseason, 1463 01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:28,040 Speaker 3: for all the sacks that they produced last year, I mean, 1464 01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:29,280 Speaker 3: they were in the bottom half of the league on 1465 01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:32,440 Speaker 3: third down defense, So you know, it's yeah, they're productive 1466 01:03:32,440 --> 01:03:34,680 Speaker 3: in sacks, but it's more than sacks about getting off 1467 01:03:34,680 --> 01:03:37,160 Speaker 3: the field and you know, being able to especially against 1468 01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:37,880 Speaker 3: the good teams. 1469 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:39,320 Speaker 6: I just one more point to make on it. 1470 01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:41,200 Speaker 3: I thought, I mean, I think that Tutrick wise Things 1471 01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:43,360 Speaker 3: is a good comp that he brought up. They have 1472 01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:46,280 Speaker 3: different players, but I think Dietrich Wise was kind of 1473 01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:48,160 Speaker 3: more of a pass rusher early in his career, and 1474 01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 3: you know when you saw him that the game against 1475 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:53,120 Speaker 3: Tennessee comes to mind, the playoffs in twenty nineteen, when 1476 01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:55,480 Speaker 3: you know he just wasn't a run stopper. I mean, 1477 01:03:55,480 --> 01:03:57,160 Speaker 3: he's got good length, but he just kind of get 1478 01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 3: pushed around. And I thought last year his technique kind 1479 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 3: of took a sudden surge. 1480 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 6: Now, could that happen with. 1481 01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:06,200 Speaker 5: I faded a little down the stretch though. Wise, yeah, I. 1482 01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:07,800 Speaker 3: Don't know if it's gonna happen with ch just because 1483 01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:10,360 Speaker 3: I don't think really has the size to play in 1484 01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,240 Speaker 3: this defense consistently first second down. It's just it is 1485 01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:13,800 Speaker 3: what it is. 1486 01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:16,640 Speaker 5: Eldred in North Carolina, Hey, Aldred. 1487 01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:20,360 Speaker 13: Hey Fred, heighty tomorrow. How y'all doing good? 1488 01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:20,680 Speaker 1: Right? 1489 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:25,360 Speaker 13: Pretty good too? I heard the first part of the show. 1490 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,600 Speaker 13: I loved where you tomorrow was talking and Fred. But 1491 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:33,880 Speaker 13: I'm I'm hoping that we do trade up and Mike 1492 01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:34,760 Speaker 13: with you. 1493 01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:35,040 Speaker 5: Man. 1494 01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:36,360 Speaker 13: I don't want to go over and get right now. 1495 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:40,400 Speaker 13: It's Gonzales seeven Goma wide receiver guy, but we need 1496 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,000 Speaker 13: that corner. And I don't care what nobody said last 1497 01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:46,000 Speaker 13: year draft, I still stay with the f you got 1498 01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:49,120 Speaker 13: Marcus Jones, But like I said last year, he's too short. 1499 01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:51,760 Speaker 13: He can't run against through A big guy with speed 1500 01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:54,400 Speaker 13: and a quarterback is accurate. We've seen that last year. 1501 01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:57,080 Speaker 13: Us a good Meals and us a good Jones. So 1502 01:04:57,160 --> 01:04:59,200 Speaker 13: you're gonna need somebody on the outside. We had a 1503 01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:02,120 Speaker 13: chance to get one left last year, but we got strange. 1504 01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:06,560 Speaker 13: And what bothered me, it's the same guy doing the picket. 1505 01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:08,520 Speaker 13: I know everybody talked that last year to talk to 1506 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:11,640 Speaker 13: this year, but the same guys doing the picket. Yeah, 1507 01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:13,919 Speaker 13: and that's what I can't get really get paid. 1508 01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 5: I mean, I just wonder I would love to know 1509 01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:19,720 Speaker 5: exactly what went on with that cold, strange picka. 1510 01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:20,360 Speaker 16: You know. 1511 01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:24,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's like to me, it means nothing to lean 1512 01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:27,680 Speaker 9: on the guys like Bill O'Brien or you know, anyone 1513 01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:29,800 Speaker 9: else that they're tapping into to get insight. You know, 1514 01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 9: he grow gave a lot of credit to his assistance 1515 01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,320 Speaker 9: for all the work that they do on character and 1516 01:05:34,440 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 9: things that we don't know about when we're scouting. But 1517 01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:39,600 Speaker 9: it's like, how much of that are you actually listening 1518 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:41,840 Speaker 9: to and how much of it is Bill? Just like, 1519 01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 9: I really don't care if this is. 1520 01:05:43,160 --> 01:05:46,960 Speaker 13: What I want, Yeah, that's what I'm thinking and do 1521 01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 13: so question. I know, I've been talking a lot about 1522 01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:55,640 Speaker 13: Quintin Johnson and I like that guy from Texas, but 1523 01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:59,240 Speaker 13: nobody's talking about Jalen Hyatt, Wow, from Tennessee. 1524 01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:01,320 Speaker 6: That's a good question. 1525 01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean I've seen him, I've seen him 1526 01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:05,400 Speaker 3: ranked as the top receiver in some of these classes, 1527 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:07,640 Speaker 3: you know, I think, I mean and I know, you know, 1528 01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 3: Evan's got a whole thing on him of of you know, 1529 01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:13,000 Speaker 3: largely being schemed open. I mean, I think Tilman. I 1530 01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 3: liked Tillman better a little bit with his previous year 1531 01:06:16,800 --> 01:06:19,400 Speaker 3: from what I saw him. But I mean, fast, tall 1532 01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:21,040 Speaker 3: slot guy, you know. I mean that's I think what 1533 01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:23,640 Speaker 3: he's what he's going to be. I've kind of shied 1534 01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:25,680 Speaker 3: away from those guys just because I think they've got 1535 01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:28,720 Speaker 3: like I just you can't run four verts every single down, like, 1536 01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:30,000 Speaker 3: and it feels like that's kind of what they have 1537 01:06:30,120 --> 01:06:30,360 Speaker 3: right now. 1538 01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:33,360 Speaker 6: But I think he's one of those players. 1539 01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:35,880 Speaker 3: Though that could suddenly just pop up and be the 1540 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:39,480 Speaker 3: top receiver taken or you know, second in that first round, 1541 01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:41,760 Speaker 3: even though nobody's really talking about him. I think he's right. 1542 01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:44,440 Speaker 13: No, but I've seen a bunch of people taking him. 1543 01:06:44,600 --> 01:06:47,560 Speaker 13: Uh let's see. I think Ken State was one of them. 1544 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:51,040 Speaker 13: And I know Buffalo is. They keep saying Buffalo is 1545 01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:54,160 Speaker 13: going after my guy, Quinn Johnson, and I'm like, well, 1546 01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:56,440 Speaker 13: if he team up with Diggs, I don't gonna hate 1547 01:06:56,440 --> 01:06:59,240 Speaker 13: to see that because they're like DK Mitya, I know 1548 01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:01,720 Speaker 13: you ain't a fast the MADCAF, but like I said, 1549 01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:03,800 Speaker 13: you don't get open eat not a run route, But. 1550 01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:08,320 Speaker 5: All right, thanks. 1551 01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:10,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1552 01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:13,000 Speaker 9: I like that question just because, And I think someone 1553 01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:16,640 Speaker 9: may have asked about what the process is like, because 1554 01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:19,080 Speaker 9: it's like when you ask a friend like for outfit advice, 1555 01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:21,800 Speaker 9: and in your head you know what what you're gonna take, 1556 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:23,440 Speaker 9: but you're just like, okay, let me, let me just 1557 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 9: ask and they and they're they're like, thank you for advice. 1558 01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:29,040 Speaker 9: I'm gonna wear this anyway.

Sometimes when I'm kind of hungry, 1752 01:17:19,880 --> 01:17:22,080 Speaker 3: like I could do a mini and that's fine. 1753 01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:23,439 Speaker 5: Really, Yeah, I. 1754 01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:25,080 Speaker 4: Did a many a couple of weeks ago because we 1755 01:17:25,120 --> 01:17:26,760 Speaker 4: were going to my parents' house for dinner and it 1756 01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:29,920 Speaker 4: was kind of in between lunch and dinner. So I 1757 01:17:30,120 --> 01:17:31,840 Speaker 4: just was like, all right, I'll just get a mini 1758 01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:34,760 Speaker 4: and then that'll hold me over until dinner, and it 1759 01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:35,719 Speaker 4: worked out perfectly. 1760 01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:39,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, that was my Jersey mic story. But Evan, 1761 01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:44,439 Speaker 5: more importantly, you were also at the availability today, were 1762 01:17:44,479 --> 01:17:47,879 Speaker 5: you with O'Brien? Yes, And so what were your highlights? 1763 01:17:48,680 --> 01:17:51,639 Speaker 4: Well, I think you know, I was talking upstairs about 1764 01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:54,000 Speaker 4: that scene in Iron Man three at the end where 1765 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:56,800 Speaker 4: he initiates clean Slate protocol and all the iron Men 1766 01:17:56,920 --> 01:18:00,439 Speaker 4: blow up across the board. That's a little how it 1767 01:18:00,560 --> 01:18:03,639 Speaker 4: felt today with Bill O'Brien. He must have said clean 1768 01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:07,280 Speaker 4: slate ten times. And I think that's really the motto 1769 01:18:07,880 --> 01:18:11,519 Speaker 4: of the offense this spring and summer is that last 1770 01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:15,120 Speaker 4: year was last year. Whatever happened last year is a relevant, 1771 01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:19,560 Speaker 4: new coach, new offensive coordinator, really irrelevant to anything to 1772 01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:24,400 Speaker 4: Bill O'Brien's knowledge, and we're moving forward. It's a clean slate. 1773 01:18:24,640 --> 01:18:27,479 Speaker 4: And I think that trickled on up and down from 1774 01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:30,800 Speaker 4: the quarterback to pretty much everybody else on the roster. 1775 01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:34,840 Speaker 4: So from that perspective, I felt like it was a 1776 01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:36,759 Speaker 4: good thing that that's the way that he was speaking 1777 01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:39,840 Speaker 4: now as I normally do, try to ask him some 1778 01:18:39,920 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 4: ex's and o's questions, and I think he told Tom 1779 01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:45,559 Speaker 4: Kerrn that it would be crazy of him to tell 1780 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:49,520 Speaker 4: us what they're going to do offensively from a schematic perspective, 1781 01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:51,680 Speaker 4: So he played that close to the vest. But I 1782 01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:56,599 Speaker 4: think in general, the general sentiment was we're moving forward, 1783 01:18:56,640 --> 01:18:59,320 Speaker 4: we're not looking in the rearview mirror, and everybody's got 1784 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:03,360 Speaker 4: a clean slate, and from now on is when you 1785 01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:05,320 Speaker 4: start to make an impression on Bill O'Briant. 1786 01:19:05,439 --> 01:19:09,400 Speaker 5: Okay, I mean that makes sense. Will you at all 1787 01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:16,040 Speaker 5: surprised that grod Mayo was on a riser, you know, 1788 01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:17,839 Speaker 5: talking on behalf of the defense? 1789 01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:23,000 Speaker 4: Yes, and no. I feel like the thing that's tricky 1790 01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:27,400 Speaker 4: about girod Mayo is that he dances around. And I'm 1791 01:19:27,439 --> 01:19:29,120 Speaker 4: not saying it as a negative, but it's just a 1792 01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:32,720 Speaker 4: fact he dances around. The questions about his role and 1793 01:19:32,920 --> 01:19:35,720 Speaker 4: what exactly do you do around here? And what is 1794 01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:38,840 Speaker 4: your title? He doesn't want to address those things. And 1795 01:19:38,960 --> 01:19:43,720 Speaker 4: somebody asked him about mister Kraft basically saying that he'd 1796 01:19:43,760 --> 01:19:45,720 Speaker 4: be happy for him to be the heir apparent to 1797 01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:49,560 Speaker 4: Bill Belichick, and he essentially no commented that question. He 1798 01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:52,479 Speaker 4: was like, that's a tricky, tricky one for me to answer, 1799 01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:56,400 Speaker 4: so I'm not gonna touch it. And he doesn't. It 1800 01:19:56,520 --> 01:20:00,920 Speaker 4: seems like he is comfortable with his role and what 1801 01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:03,320 Speaker 4: the plan is. That was what he talked about, was 1802 01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:06,400 Speaker 4: the plan that they have put in place for him 1803 01:20:06,479 --> 01:20:08,760 Speaker 4: to grow as a coach, to eventually get to the 1804 01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:11,160 Speaker 4: point where he's a head coach. And the only other 1805 01:20:11,240 --> 01:20:14,880 Speaker 4: thing I took away from what he said is I 1806 01:20:14,960 --> 01:20:17,200 Speaker 4: think part of him feels like he's not ready to 1807 01:20:17,360 --> 01:20:20,160 Speaker 4: be a head coach in terms of his knowledge of 1808 01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:23,840 Speaker 4: everything that goes on with an organization. So he actually 1809 01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:25,639 Speaker 4: said that he's going to be around for a couple 1810 01:20:25,720 --> 01:20:28,320 Speaker 4: of years, not just this season, but said a couple 1811 01:20:28,439 --> 01:20:31,640 Speaker 4: of years. And I think that the general consensus was 1812 01:20:31,720 --> 01:20:35,559 Speaker 4: that he's playing the long game here, not necessarily about Bill, 1813 01:20:35,680 --> 01:20:39,080 Speaker 4: but more so about learning the ropes and learning the 1814 01:20:39,240 --> 01:20:43,080 Speaker 4: trade and not jumping into a head coaching opportunity too 1815 01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:45,240 Speaker 4: soon without having that background. 1816 01:20:45,360 --> 01:20:48,640 Speaker 5: Well that see, that makes it even more curious to 1817 01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:52,120 Speaker 5: me that he's there talking on behalf of the defense. 1818 01:20:52,200 --> 01:20:55,400 Speaker 5: You would. I thought that he might not even talk today, 1819 01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:58,439 Speaker 5: and then that Steve Belichick might be sort of the 1820 01:20:58,479 --> 01:21:03,880 Speaker 5: guy talking, you know, overall defense, you know, because because 1821 01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:05,960 Speaker 5: Gerard Mayo was going to be more in that kind 1822 01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:09,640 Speaker 5: of upper role where he's kind of floating around and 1823 01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:12,760 Speaker 5: learning what it really means to be a head coach. 1824 01:21:12,880 --> 01:21:15,479 Speaker 5: So I don't know, I'm confused a little bit. 1825 01:21:15,560 --> 01:21:17,360 Speaker 3: I mean, I think I think Joe Judge is kind 1826 01:21:17,360 --> 01:21:19,760 Speaker 3: of doing that. Like I mean, I think Joe Judge 1827 01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:21,519 Speaker 3: is going to be the is going to be the 1828 01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:23,720 Speaker 3: the ernie, you know, I mean, and I think that's 1829 01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:25,840 Speaker 3: something that they might have missed last year is having 1830 01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:29,280 Speaker 3: that Matty p did it, And I know it's different, 1831 01:21:29,320 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 3: but I you know, I think as much talking as 1832 01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:34,439 Speaker 3: assistant head coach and those kind of titles and stuff. 1833 01:21:34,439 --> 01:21:37,760 Speaker 3: I think the concilierre, the guy in Bill's ear, I 1834 01:21:37,800 --> 01:21:40,200 Speaker 3: think will be Joe Judge. I'm wondering if that was 1835 01:21:40,640 --> 01:21:43,280 Speaker 3: a purposeful thing that, hey, we missed this element last year. 1836 01:21:43,360 --> 01:21:46,479 Speaker 3: We all know about some of the miscommunication, pre snap penalties, 1837 01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:48,639 Speaker 3: those kind of things that you know sometimes come from 1838 01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:50,519 Speaker 3: not all being on the same page. So maybe that's 1839 01:21:50,560 --> 01:21:51,040 Speaker 3: part of it too. 1840 01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:53,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, But I mean if you're like, if you're in 1841 01:21:53,960 --> 01:21:56,960 Speaker 5: charge of the defense, then that's where your focus needs 1842 01:21:57,000 --> 01:21:58,360 Speaker 5: to be, you know what I mean? 1843 01:21:58,400 --> 01:22:00,000 Speaker 3: Would you say, though, I mean I kind of feel 1844 01:22:00,200 --> 01:22:03,559 Speaker 3: like Girod Maybe he's not in charge of the defense, 1845 01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:05,479 Speaker 3: but I feel like he's kind of the emotional leader 1846 01:22:05,560 --> 01:22:06,439 Speaker 3: of the defense, like. 1847 01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:07,600 Speaker 5: You know, like that. 1848 01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:10,960 Speaker 4: That's always how the way I've always looked at it 1849 01:22:11,040 --> 01:22:14,439 Speaker 4: with the defense was that Gerard was the face of 1850 01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:17,880 Speaker 4: the defensive coaching staff and Steve was the play caller. 1851 01:22:18,040 --> 01:22:19,559 Speaker 4: So Gerrod is the guy, but. 1852 01:22:19,600 --> 01:22:22,679 Speaker 5: Who's who is formulating the defense? 1853 01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:25,280 Speaker 4: I think that's a collaborative thing I really do. And 1854 01:22:25,400 --> 01:22:29,400 Speaker 4: I would also, you don't form a defensive game plan 1855 01:22:29,600 --> 01:22:32,720 Speaker 4: on Bill Belichick's staff without Bill Belichick being in the room, right, 1856 01:22:32,760 --> 01:22:36,120 Speaker 4: I mean, why would you do that? So I think 1857 01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:39,599 Speaker 4: that ultimately it's Bill's defense. But I think Girod Mayo 1858 01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:43,639 Speaker 4: is the one that you consistently hear about presenting game 1859 01:22:43,720 --> 01:22:46,600 Speaker 4: plans to the players, breaking down film in front of 1860 01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:50,000 Speaker 4: the room, and really being the voice of the defense, 1861 01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:53,160 Speaker 4: where Steve is more of the guy behind the scenes 1862 01:22:53,200 --> 01:22:56,040 Speaker 4: that's maybe has a headset on game days in the playsheet, 1863 01:22:56,120 --> 01:22:59,760 Speaker 4: but is not necessarily out front and center in those 1864 01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:03,040 Speaker 4: eating rooms as much as Gerrod Mayo is. So when 1865 01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:05,360 Speaker 4: it comes to who's making the game plan, I think 1866 01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:08,880 Speaker 4: that that's collaborative. When you get to Sunday's Steve is 1867 01:23:09,040 --> 01:23:11,559 Speaker 4: calling the places, Gerrod said it. He said, Steve's been 1868 01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:14,680 Speaker 4: calling the play since twenty nineteen. Oh really, Oh yeah, 1869 01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:19,440 Speaker 4: came out and we finally found out. So that was acknowledged, 1870 01:23:19,920 --> 01:23:21,720 Speaker 4: not that it hasn't been acknowledged in the past, but 1871 01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:24,040 Speaker 4: Garrod came out and said that, and he said he's 1872 01:23:24,080 --> 01:23:26,760 Speaker 4: fine with it, that he doesn't that that's not something 1873 01:23:26,800 --> 01:23:30,439 Speaker 4: that he's worried about or upset about, or even spending 1874 01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:33,160 Speaker 4: too much time thinking about that Steve is calling the 1875 01:23:33,240 --> 01:23:35,920 Speaker 4: plays and he's not. So in a lot of ways, 1876 01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:39,440 Speaker 4: it feels kind of like a head coach coordinator hierarchy, 1877 01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:42,120 Speaker 4: but just only on the defensive side of the ball, 1878 01:23:42,479 --> 01:23:44,920 Speaker 4: where Gerard is handling a lot of the big picture 1879 01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:49,080 Speaker 4: organizational type stuff and presenting and things like that, and 1880 01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:52,000 Speaker 4: Steve's the one that's actually doing the play calling on 1881 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:52,599 Speaker 4: game day. 1882 01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:56,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, I thought I thought there was a chance 1883 01:23:56,560 --> 01:24:00,840 Speaker 5: this year that Steve would become the defensive Yeah. 1884 01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:02,080 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1885 01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:04,559 Speaker 4: It's a tricky thing to do because he is your 1886 01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:05,800 Speaker 4: son at the end of the night. 1887 01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:08,360 Speaker 5: The visual of it, but I think, yeah, I think 1888 01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:11,880 Speaker 5: he's probably pretty good. I mean, yeah, you know, I 1889 01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:13,640 Speaker 5: I think I think he could do it. 1890 01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:16,680 Speaker 6: You know, he looks, he looks the part, you know, 1891 01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:18,759 Speaker 6: I like, I know, he looks. 1892 01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:20,720 Speaker 5: You know, with the tongue and all that that meme 1893 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:23,559 Speaker 5: got out there and all that. But I think he's 1894 01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:26,439 Speaker 5: I think he's got the chops to be a DC, 1895 01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:28,000 Speaker 5: you know, Yeah. 1896 01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:29,320 Speaker 6: Of course, I mean I don't know. 1897 01:24:29,400 --> 01:24:31,439 Speaker 3: I mean I kind of like the stupid look like, 1898 01:24:31,479 --> 01:24:33,240 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't it's just it's always like like 1899 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:36,479 Speaker 3: Rob Ryan, like, there's always those defensive coordinators. 1900 01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:38,639 Speaker 6: Who you know, they they look like they're there. 1901 01:24:39,200 --> 01:24:41,920 Speaker 4: I think on that side of the ball. Offensively, there 1902 01:24:42,479 --> 01:24:46,240 Speaker 4: it's most most of the time about creativity and being 1903 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:49,519 Speaker 4: that kind of maestro, that chess master. Defensively, I think 1904 01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:52,400 Speaker 4: you got to have some khons because you there's gonna 1905 01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:54,800 Speaker 4: be times or you're going up against Josh Allen and 1906 01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:58,040 Speaker 4: if you're just gonna sit and soft zone the entire game, 1907 01:24:58,120 --> 01:24:59,960 Speaker 4: he's gonna rip you apart. But every once in a while, 1908 01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:02,840 Speaker 4: you got to come after him and really start to 1909 01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:05,360 Speaker 4: spin the dial a little bit. And I think they've 1910 01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:08,120 Speaker 4: done that. The one thing I would say about Steve's 1911 01:25:08,160 --> 01:25:11,360 Speaker 4: play calling is sometimes I feel like, especially in matchups 1912 01:25:11,400 --> 01:25:16,280 Speaker 4: against Alan recently, that he's just trying to throw every 1913 01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:21,040 Speaker 4: single call in the Rolodex at him, where maybe it's 1914 01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:23,519 Speaker 4: best to just kind of sit in a couple of 1915 01:25:23,560 --> 01:25:26,479 Speaker 4: different things that Alan has trouble with instead of just 1916 01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:29,040 Speaker 4: trying to hit him with volume, because I think at 1917 01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:31,080 Speaker 4: the end of the day, with a quarterback like that 1918 01:25:31,360 --> 01:25:35,040 Speaker 4: or a quarterback like Mahomes, they can create so much 1919 01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:38,760 Speaker 4: on those second reaction plays, on those extended plays that 1920 01:25:39,479 --> 01:25:41,320 Speaker 4: you can spend the dial on them all you want, 1921 01:25:41,520 --> 01:25:43,559 Speaker 4: but if he just doesn't understand what he's looking at, 1922 01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:45,479 Speaker 4: he's just gonna hold the ball and then just wait 1923 01:25:45,520 --> 01:25:48,040 Speaker 4: for it to break down and then play playground football. 1924 01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:49,840 Speaker 3: On kind of what they did to Brady two in 1925 01:25:49,920 --> 01:25:54,680 Speaker 3: twenty one, like just just like a Pote Perrie coverages. 1926 01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:56,600 Speaker 4: And Yeah, I just would sometimes I would like to 1927 01:25:56,640 --> 01:26:02,639 Speaker 4: see them really feel drown conviction about a specific game 1928 01:26:02,760 --> 01:26:05,640 Speaker 4: plan and a way to approach a certain quarterback and 1929 01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 4: then just stick with it a little bit more. I 1930 01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:10,680 Speaker 4: think sometimes they get into their own heads of we 1931 01:26:11,360 --> 01:26:13,400 Speaker 4: will if we just sit in one thing, that this 1932 01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:14,920 Speaker 4: quarterback is going to pick us apart. 1933 01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 9: Well. 1934 01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:18,000 Speaker 5: I think part of that is, you know, they have 1935 01:26:18,120 --> 01:26:20,720 Speaker 5: confidence their players, but they know that their players, there's 1936 01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:24,679 Speaker 5: no one on our defense that's that good that another 1937 01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,519 Speaker 5: team can't exploit. So they're trying to we can't just 1938 01:26:27,600 --> 01:26:31,320 Speaker 5: line up trying to avoid another team from identifying we 1939 01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:34,200 Speaker 5: got this guy or we got that guy, and they're 1940 01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:35,560 Speaker 5: trying to hide their weaknesses. 1941 01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:38,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's it's two full because on one hand, 1942 01:26:38,920 --> 01:26:42,240 Speaker 4: I think that sometimes they overcomplicate things for themselves, but 1943 01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:44,800 Speaker 4: on the other hand, I'd be hard pressed to find 1944 01:26:44,840 --> 01:26:48,160 Speaker 4: a playbook that's as diverse as the Patriots defensive calls. 1945 01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:51,360 Speaker 4: I mean they they call everything in anything under the 1946 01:26:51,439 --> 01:26:54,799 Speaker 4: sun that they think might work, whether it's blitz Man's 1947 01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:59,280 Speaker 4: zone whatever. Like, they have literally every single thing at 1948 01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:01,800 Speaker 4: their fingertips to try to pull something out of the 1949 01:27:01,840 --> 01:27:04,840 Speaker 4: hat if they have to. So it's always great to 1950 01:27:04,880 --> 01:27:07,960 Speaker 4: watch their defense because every week, every down is something different. 1951 01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:11,559 Speaker 5: Web radio at Patriots dot com as the email address 1952 01:27:11,600 --> 01:27:13,879 Speaker 5: Scott and Virginia writes it in. I thought an interesting 1953 01:27:13,960 --> 01:27:17,160 Speaker 5: comment from Matt grow was what he said about receivers 1954 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:20,280 Speaker 5: being taken early. Specifically, all it takes is one to 1955 01:27:20,400 --> 01:27:22,240 Speaker 5: be taken in the first round, and then another and 1956 01:27:22,320 --> 01:27:24,759 Speaker 5: then another. To me, it sounds like in this draft 1957 01:27:24,840 --> 01:27:26,760 Speaker 5: it's best to be the first team to take a 1958 01:27:26,840 --> 01:27:29,960 Speaker 5: receiver to be sure you get your guy, because after 1959 01:27:30,040 --> 01:27:33,320 Speaker 5: that it's gonna be hard to read the board since 1960 01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:35,599 Speaker 5: a run on receivers will most likely occur. 1961 01:27:36,600 --> 01:27:38,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I just think it's like that with 1962 01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:40,679 Speaker 3: any position. I mean, it's gonna be like that with tackle, 1963 01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:42,599 Speaker 3: it's gonna be like that with cornerback too. 1964 01:27:43,280 --> 01:27:44,200 Speaker 6: I just the receivers. 1965 01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:47,759 Speaker 5: I think Corner will be the first run. That's my prediction. 1966 01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:50,200 Speaker 3: I would just draw the line with this receiver class though, Like, 1967 01:27:50,439 --> 01:27:52,560 Speaker 3: you know, if somebody takes one at nine, does that 1968 01:27:52,640 --> 01:27:55,360 Speaker 3: mean you got to trade up to ten because you 1969 01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:57,760 Speaker 3: love JSN or you love Zay Flowers, Like. 1970 01:27:58,280 --> 01:27:59,920 Speaker 6: I don't know. I think that they're in a pret 1971 01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:02,120 Speaker 6: good place to see how it kind of falls. 1972 01:28:02,960 --> 01:28:04,640 Speaker 3: But it was a call we got earlier. Evan was 1973 01:28:04,760 --> 01:28:07,200 Speaker 3: just about you know, who would you trade up for? 1974 01:28:07,320 --> 01:28:11,880 Speaker 3: And I'm like, nobody got maybe, and that's kind of it. 1975 01:28:12,120 --> 01:28:14,000 Speaker 6: And otherwise something that's not it is going to be 1976 01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:14,400 Speaker 6: put down. 1977 01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:16,479 Speaker 4: It is not a trade up draft to me, because 1978 01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:22,120 Speaker 4: this is a draft that is really deep in certain 1979 01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:26,519 Speaker 4: positions from like ten through seventy five. But there's not 1980 01:28:26,680 --> 01:28:30,479 Speaker 4: a there's no other than maybe the quarterbacks, and I 1981 01:28:30,520 --> 01:28:33,559 Speaker 4: guess like Jalen Carter and Will Anderson. I don't think 1982 01:28:33,560 --> 01:28:36,839 Speaker 4: that there's any guys on here that project as future 1983 01:28:37,760 --> 01:28:39,839 Speaker 4: potential Hall of Fame type of guys. 1984 01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:40,040 Speaker 13: Now. 1985 01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:42,320 Speaker 4: I know that's easier said than done to predict those 1986 01:28:42,400 --> 01:28:44,640 Speaker 4: types of things, but I just don't look at this 1987 01:28:44,800 --> 01:28:47,320 Speaker 4: draft as very top heavy, I guess. And the receiver 1988 01:28:47,479 --> 01:28:52,400 Speaker 4: position is definitely part of that conversation where the receiver 1989 01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:56,280 Speaker 4: class is really more in that twenty to forty range 1990 01:28:56,880 --> 01:28:58,960 Speaker 4: that all these receivers I think are going to go 1991 01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:01,559 Speaker 4: at the top of the board as and there's really 1992 01:29:01,640 --> 01:29:05,240 Speaker 4: nobody there to take at at five or ten or 1993 01:29:05,360 --> 01:29:08,040 Speaker 4: anything like that. So I don't look at this draft 1994 01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:10,000 Speaker 4: as a very good trade up draft. This to me 1995 01:29:10,160 --> 01:29:13,760 Speaker 4: is a classic Belichick trade down draft and accumulate more 1996 01:29:13,880 --> 01:29:17,719 Speaker 4: picks because there is that maybe not elite elite talent, 1997 01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:19,800 Speaker 4: but there's a lot of good players in this draft 1998 01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:22,400 Speaker 4: that maybe if you cast a wider net, but I 1999 01:29:22,439 --> 01:29:24,560 Speaker 4: wouldn't say this is a big trade up draft. 2000 01:29:24,439 --> 01:29:27,120 Speaker 5: Tim Wrights in. First, I want to congratulate both Evan 2001 01:29:27,160 --> 01:29:30,280 Speaker 5: and Mike on their draft big boards and the very 2002 01:29:30,360 --> 01:29:34,439 Speaker 5: comprehensive draft prospect guide. They are very easy to understand 2003 01:29:34,560 --> 01:29:36,920 Speaker 5: and will be my guides on draft night. Thank you. 2004 01:29:37,200 --> 01:29:39,680 Speaker 5: I know what, Evan, You've got your draft guy that 2005 01:29:39,760 --> 01:29:40,800 Speaker 5: you can download now. 2006 01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:41,800 Speaker 6: You should download that. 2007 01:29:41,800 --> 01:29:43,479 Speaker 5: I don't know why you're giving that away. Why are 2008 01:29:43,479 --> 01:29:45,439 Speaker 5: you just giving that to people? What do you mean 2009 01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:47,920 Speaker 5: everybody else? Like you have to pay and everything. 2010 01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:49,280 Speaker 4: You know, that's your job. 2011 01:29:49,360 --> 01:29:51,640 Speaker 5: I just do the words. Get their name, you know, 2012 01:29:51,840 --> 01:29:54,960 Speaker 5: like you know, but you know, I'm only kidding, but yeah, 2013 01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:57,160 Speaker 5: it's very nice of you to do that. No, I 2014 01:29:57,439 --> 01:30:00,519 Speaker 5: mean I And by the way, kudos to it's Ferreira. 2015 01:30:00,760 --> 01:30:02,519 Speaker 4: He put it together. Yeah, I mean I did all 2016 01:30:02,640 --> 01:30:05,880 Speaker 4: the film notes obviously, but it was Chris's. Yeah, Chris's animal. 2017 01:30:05,960 --> 01:30:07,040 Speaker 5: I thought it was a lot of time. 2018 01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:09,680 Speaker 3: I mean, Chris, Chris put it all together. I mean, 2019 01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:12,000 Speaker 3: go download it. But I mean I just you know, 2020 01:30:12,120 --> 01:30:14,519 Speaker 3: as a Patriots fan who loves the draft, I would 2021 01:30:14,560 --> 01:30:16,920 Speaker 3: have been all over that in two seconds. And I'm 2022 01:30:16,960 --> 01:30:19,160 Speaker 3: sure plenty of people are all over it. So yeah, 2023 01:30:19,200 --> 01:30:21,439 Speaker 3: thank you, And it's a labor of love. I feel like, 2024 01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:22,720 Speaker 3: I don't know how you feel, but like I just 2025 01:30:22,760 --> 01:30:24,680 Speaker 3: feel such a sense of relief when I get the 2026 01:30:24,720 --> 01:30:27,080 Speaker 3: big board done and the mock drafts and everything, and 2027 01:30:27,160 --> 01:30:30,360 Speaker 3: I'm like the bar in the barn. I feel like 2028 01:30:30,400 --> 01:30:31,759 Speaker 3: I got a pretty good sense of this class. 2029 01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:31,920 Speaker 11: Now. 2030 01:30:31,960 --> 01:30:33,960 Speaker 4: I just got to I just have nightmares with this 2031 01:30:34,200 --> 01:30:37,000 Speaker 4: team that they're going to pull something like a cold 2032 01:30:37,000 --> 01:30:40,559 Speaker 4: strange again on me. Because the Draft guide has one 2033 01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:44,040 Speaker 4: hundred and twenty five prospects and I basically just went 2034 01:30:44,600 --> 01:30:48,320 Speaker 4: from one to one twenty five on all those consensus 2035 01:30:48,400 --> 01:30:51,479 Speaker 4: boards and stuff like that, and and did all those guys. 2036 01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:54,240 Speaker 4: So this should be whoever they pick in the first 2037 01:30:54,360 --> 01:30:56,320 Speaker 4: round should come out of this one hundred and twenty 2038 01:30:56,400 --> 01:30:59,599 Speaker 4: five grouping. But you just you never know what then, right. 2039 01:31:00,200 --> 01:31:03,040 Speaker 5: The question Tim has is if the best offensive tackle, 2040 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:06,439 Speaker 5: wide receiver, and cornerback are all available at fourteen, which 2041 01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:08,760 Speaker 5: do you take? It looks like Evan and Mike would 2042 01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:11,640 Speaker 5: both take the corner of Christian Gonzales from Oregon, but 2043 01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:13,920 Speaker 5: what about the rest of you. I would normally say 2044 01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:17,360 Speaker 5: tackle because you can't teach size, but in today's NFL, 2045 01:31:17,479 --> 01:31:20,840 Speaker 5: cornerback and wide receiver have become integral positions to the 2046 01:31:20,880 --> 01:31:24,320 Speaker 5: success of the team. So like, if you ask me, 2047 01:31:26,880 --> 01:31:30,280 Speaker 5: I would take the corner, you know, yeah, yeah. 2048 01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:32,800 Speaker 3: I mean I think if you really believe you're getting 2049 01:31:32,800 --> 01:31:35,200 Speaker 3: a number one corner, It's just it's such a key 2050 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:37,599 Speaker 3: piece of this defense that I think would make everyone 2051 01:31:37,760 --> 01:31:40,160 Speaker 3: better and really get them in position it conect. 2052 01:31:40,360 --> 01:31:43,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, particularly in that defensive backfield. You know you lost 2053 01:31:43,840 --> 01:31:45,720 Speaker 5: Steph mccordy. I know he's a safety, but he was 2054 01:31:45,760 --> 01:31:48,599 Speaker 5: so integral in part in terms of communication back there. 2055 01:31:49,080 --> 01:31:52,920 Speaker 5: So you need good players. You know, if you get 2056 01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:55,439 Speaker 5: that number one corner, it allows Mark you know, Marcus 2057 01:31:55,560 --> 01:31:57,800 Speaker 5: Jones can stay where he is, Jack Jones can stay 2058 01:31:57,800 --> 01:32:00,680 Speaker 5: where he is, he can play opposite Jonathan Jones, and 2059 01:32:00,800 --> 01:32:05,640 Speaker 5: you have a pretty good cornerback room. If you get Gonzales, 2060 01:32:06,040 --> 01:32:10,280 Speaker 5: you know, that's that the domino effect of him helps everybody. 2061 01:32:10,400 --> 01:32:12,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know. I mean there's a handful of these guys, 2062 01:32:13,600 --> 01:32:15,120 Speaker 3: you know, at the top of the draft, but after 2063 01:32:15,200 --> 01:32:17,080 Speaker 3: that then you're kind of getting into all right, here's 2064 01:32:17,080 --> 01:32:21,080 Speaker 3: another rotational piece to work in, and I think they 2065 01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:23,560 Speaker 3: need that. But I'm also not as intrigued by that 2066 01:32:23,720 --> 01:32:26,360 Speaker 3: because it's it's just another one of these great They 2067 01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:28,760 Speaker 3: got another defensive back that they'll move around, but it's 2068 01:32:28,840 --> 01:32:31,600 Speaker 3: not a guy they need a guy I think on 2069 01:32:31,680 --> 01:32:32,640 Speaker 3: the outside. 2070 01:32:32,320 --> 01:32:34,160 Speaker 6: And those only come in the first round. 2071 01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:37,280 Speaker 4: I'm definitely starting to gravitate more and more towards the 2072 01:32:37,320 --> 01:32:39,759 Speaker 4: corner by the day because I just think this class 2073 01:32:39,880 --> 01:32:42,920 Speaker 4: is fantastic, and I think they'll have an opportunity at 2074 01:32:42,960 --> 01:32:45,320 Speaker 4: fourteen to pick one of the top three or four 2075 01:32:45,400 --> 01:32:48,680 Speaker 4: guys on the board. Whether it's Gonzales, I would throw 2076 01:32:48,720 --> 01:32:51,280 Speaker 4: Deontay Banks's name out there from Maryland because I think 2077 01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:54,400 Speaker 4: you know them, they zig when everybody else is zagging. 2078 01:32:54,520 --> 01:32:57,479 Speaker 4: So if the Patriots at fourteen took Banks over Joey 2079 01:32:57,560 --> 01:32:59,479 Speaker 4: Porter Junior, I would not be surprised. 2080 01:32:59,680 --> 01:33:01,640 Speaker 3: I'm there with you other I'm totally and I wrote it, 2081 01:33:01,720 --> 01:33:03,280 Speaker 3: and my thing is I was doing it and I kept, like, 2082 01:33:03,360 --> 01:33:04,960 Speaker 3: you know, going back to Banks and watching it, and 2083 01:33:05,040 --> 01:33:06,720 Speaker 3: I'm like, I like them better than Porter now, and 2084 01:33:06,760 --> 01:33:09,320 Speaker 3: I should have him above Porter, but him and Gonzales 2085 01:33:09,360 --> 01:33:10,679 Speaker 3: are are just the two that I've enjoyed. 2086 01:33:10,720 --> 01:33:13,040 Speaker 5: Now, if it's crazy and there's this run on cornerbacks 2087 01:33:13,080 --> 01:33:15,200 Speaker 5: for some reason, and let's say the Patriots had three 2088 01:33:15,280 --> 01:33:17,519 Speaker 5: that they would take and they're all gone, I take, 2089 01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:19,360 Speaker 5: then I take the tackle, you know. 2090 01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:21,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean, I just look at the Jets 2091 01:33:21,920 --> 01:33:25,120 Speaker 4: last year with Sauce, and their defense went from a 2092 01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:28,639 Speaker 4: good defense to maybe the best defense in the league. 2093 01:33:29,080 --> 01:33:32,080 Speaker 4: And he just had such a great rookie season. And 2094 01:33:32,320 --> 01:33:35,040 Speaker 4: I don't know if you're going to get that level 2095 01:33:35,080 --> 01:33:38,120 Speaker 4: of impact out of a receiver in this draft with 2096 01:33:38,200 --> 01:33:40,479 Speaker 4: the way that the board is. And then tackle is 2097 01:33:40,560 --> 01:33:44,679 Speaker 4: just not one of those positions that notoriously moves that needle, 2098 01:33:44,840 --> 01:33:47,720 Speaker 4: I know. So if I have to go with one 2099 01:33:47,800 --> 01:33:49,720 Speaker 4: of those impact spots. I would also just say that 2100 01:33:49,840 --> 01:33:54,040 Speaker 4: I really trust their evaluation when it comes to offensive 2101 01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:57,639 Speaker 4: line in all seven rounds of the draft, and I'm 2102 01:33:57,720 --> 01:34:00,759 Speaker 4: sure that they'll make a short list, and Adrian Climbing, 2103 01:34:00,800 --> 01:34:02,880 Speaker 4: the scouting staff will make a list, and then Dante 2104 01:34:02,960 --> 01:34:05,360 Speaker 4: will probably sign off on a few of the guys, 2105 01:34:05,439 --> 01:34:06,800 Speaker 4: and like all of a sudden, you'll have a mic 2106 01:34:06,880 --> 01:34:09,479 Speaker 4: on Winnu in the sixth round that's playing left tackle 2107 01:34:09,560 --> 01:34:12,240 Speaker 4: and all this hidden gem that they found. And I 2108 01:34:12,680 --> 01:34:14,760 Speaker 4: feel more confident in them being able to do that 2109 01:34:14,880 --> 01:34:16,120 Speaker 4: than maybe anywhere else. 2110 01:34:16,720 --> 01:34:19,360 Speaker 5: William writes in out of He's out of Virginia as well. 2111 01:34:19,479 --> 01:34:22,200 Speaker 5: Let's say the Patriots have a normal draft. For example, 2112 01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:24,679 Speaker 5: in rounds one and two, they pick consensus top players 2113 01:34:24,720 --> 01:34:27,880 Speaker 5: at positions like tackle, corner, or wide receiver, and then 2114 01:34:27,920 --> 01:34:31,360 Speaker 5: in later rounds Bill drafts developmental players at edge, tight end, 2115 01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:34,320 Speaker 5: et cetera. How do we feel then, do we trust Bill? Again? 2116 01:34:35,720 --> 01:34:39,000 Speaker 3: I mean, look, there'll be an initial rush of what 2117 01:34:39,160 --> 01:34:41,040 Speaker 3: we think of these guys and who they draft, and 2118 01:34:41,200 --> 01:34:43,040 Speaker 3: we feel like, oh, they drafted the guys that I 2119 01:34:43,280 --> 01:34:45,360 Speaker 3: like and I think fit, And you'd be excited. But 2120 01:34:45,479 --> 01:34:46,960 Speaker 3: then there's the part where we get out on the 2121 01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:49,040 Speaker 3: field and we see what guys are out there, what 2122 01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:51,120 Speaker 3: guys are able to stay out there, what guys are 2123 01:34:51,160 --> 01:34:52,880 Speaker 3: able to you know, pop like some. 2124 01:34:52,960 --> 01:34:55,080 Speaker 6: Of these rookies have right out of the get go. 2125 01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:57,200 Speaker 3: You know, we've seen some that have, and we've also 2126 01:34:57,280 --> 01:34:59,680 Speaker 3: seen some that like, I don't know, I mean last 2127 01:34:59,760 --> 01:35:02,599 Speaker 3: year with with Thornton, a couple of good plays, gets hurt, 2128 01:35:02,640 --> 01:35:03,679 Speaker 3: he's out, you know, those. 2129 01:35:03,640 --> 01:35:04,040 Speaker 6: Kind of things. 2130 01:35:04,120 --> 01:35:06,560 Speaker 3: So it's the proofs in the pudding for me, Like 2131 01:35:06,600 --> 01:35:09,120 Speaker 3: I'll certainly have a reaction, and if he picks guys 2132 01:35:09,160 --> 01:35:11,120 Speaker 3: that I like and I feel like fit, then I'll. 2133 01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:11,840 Speaker 6: Be like, oh, this is great. 2134 01:35:11,920 --> 01:35:14,120 Speaker 3: But ultimately that doesn't mean it's going to work out. 2135 01:35:14,160 --> 01:35:16,120 Speaker 3: We might get to the season and be like, Douce, Yeah, 2136 01:35:16,520 --> 01:35:17,200 Speaker 3: guys all suck. 2137 01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:19,479 Speaker 5: I think the book on Bill will be what happens 2138 01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:23,240 Speaker 5: when they're playing, you know, it's And I just one 2139 01:35:23,280 --> 01:35:25,920 Speaker 5: more thing, like if they could have a bad draft, 2140 01:35:26,000 --> 01:35:28,400 Speaker 5: but if they make the playoffs and and win a 2141 01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:30,280 Speaker 5: couple of games, nobody will care. 2142 01:35:31,160 --> 01:35:33,040 Speaker 3: And I also say, like it's it would be so 2143 01:35:33,160 --> 01:35:35,519 Speaker 3: easy for them to just draft say Flowers and everyone 2144 01:35:35,560 --> 01:35:37,880 Speaker 3: will be like, oh, you know, I mean, everyone will 2145 01:35:37,920 --> 01:35:40,120 Speaker 3: be happy. And it doesn't mean that it would necessarily 2146 01:35:40,200 --> 01:35:41,640 Speaker 3: work or that it would be the right decision. But 2147 01:35:41,640 --> 01:35:44,120 Speaker 3: if they really just wanted to please people and inject 2148 01:35:44,200 --> 01:35:46,080 Speaker 3: some excitement around the offense, they could just take that 2149 01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:46,599 Speaker 3: kid at forth. 2150 01:35:46,800 --> 01:35:49,040 Speaker 5: Then, But then it comes down to how well do 2151 01:35:49,160 --> 01:35:50,120 Speaker 5: they win games this year? 2152 01:35:50,200 --> 01:35:52,800 Speaker 3: That's when always take it on the field and get 2153 01:35:52,840 --> 01:35:55,400 Speaker 3: you know, Bourne's playing over and all you know, always 2154 01:35:55,439 --> 01:35:56,519 Speaker 3: heard you know, like then that. 2155 01:35:56,600 --> 01:35:59,439 Speaker 5: All starts Jacket and Abba. I don't care what position 2156 01:35:59,520 --> 01:36:01,880 Speaker 5: the Patriots select with the fourteenth pick in the upcoming 2157 01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:04,680 Speaker 5: NFL Draft. My only hope is that the pick is 2158 01:36:04,720 --> 01:36:07,720 Speaker 5: a playmaker, a guy who not only will start from 2159 01:36:07,800 --> 01:36:10,840 Speaker 5: day one, but will also tilt the field in his direction, 2160 01:36:10,960 --> 01:36:13,599 Speaker 5: who will warp the gravity in his area, who will 2161 01:36:13,640 --> 01:36:17,080 Speaker 5: force opponents to change their game to account for him. 2162 01:36:17,400 --> 01:36:18,760 Speaker 5: I'm not sure there's anyone. 2163 01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:19,920 Speaker 4: In there so a receiver. 2164 01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:20,600 Speaker 13: I like that. 2165 01:36:20,920 --> 01:36:23,559 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's not very many guys that do that other 2166 01:36:23,680 --> 01:36:27,679 Speaker 4: than receivers, I guess, Jon, But I think the interesting 2167 01:36:27,720 --> 01:36:30,720 Speaker 4: thing about receivers and I got a chance to talk 2168 01:36:30,760 --> 01:36:32,640 Speaker 4: to grow at the combine. We got a chance to 2169 01:36:32,680 --> 01:36:34,760 Speaker 4: talk to go today, and we got a chance to 2170 01:36:34,800 --> 01:36:37,519 Speaker 4: talk to Grow at this time last year, and all 2171 01:36:37,640 --> 01:36:41,200 Speaker 4: three times, the way he talks about the receiver position 2172 01:36:42,080 --> 01:36:45,000 Speaker 4: and then the way that they approach the receiver position, 2173 01:36:45,080 --> 01:36:48,439 Speaker 4: their actions at the receiver position, I just don't seem 2174 01:36:48,520 --> 01:36:51,719 Speaker 4: to necessarily add up to me. And I do wonder 2175 01:36:51,800 --> 01:36:55,479 Speaker 4: if there's a little bit of disagreement on the approach 2176 01:36:55,560 --> 01:36:59,680 Speaker 4: at that position. And I think Barth actually texted me 2177 01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:03,640 Speaker 4: last night about Andrew Callahan report earlier in this offseason 2178 01:37:03,840 --> 01:37:09,040 Speaker 4: that there is, you know, a disagreement internally about how 2179 01:37:09,240 --> 01:37:13,880 Speaker 4: important is it to add receivers. And I wonder if 2180 01:37:14,000 --> 01:37:16,960 Speaker 4: guys like Taekwon and a guy like Juju is a 2181 01:37:17,080 --> 01:37:22,040 Speaker 4: compromise where we're spending a fifty you know, fiftieth overall 2182 01:37:22,080 --> 01:37:25,839 Speaker 4: pick and we're paying a receiver some money in free agency. 2183 01:37:26,560 --> 01:37:31,599 Speaker 4: But he always talks Grow always talks about receivers being 2184 01:37:32,600 --> 01:37:37,519 Speaker 4: immediate impact players for you as an organization, and guys 2185 01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:40,600 Speaker 4: that really changed the complexion of your offense and of 2186 01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:45,280 Speaker 4: your team. And he he was prompted to bring up 2187 01:37:45,320 --> 01:37:47,800 Speaker 4: teams like Miami and stuff like that, but I feel 2188 01:37:47,880 --> 01:37:50,880 Speaker 4: like those teams are teams that he looks at and says, 2189 01:37:51,840 --> 01:37:55,720 Speaker 4: they've really invested in those positions, and I just want 2190 01:37:55,800 --> 01:37:59,320 Speaker 4: I would love to know what what is bill stance 2191 01:37:59,400 --> 01:38:01,320 Speaker 4: on this and what is And I think I know 2192 01:38:01,400 --> 01:38:03,800 Speaker 4: what Gross stances on this because he's talked about it 2193 01:38:03,920 --> 01:38:07,960 Speaker 4: so much. But it feels to me like he he 2194 01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,439 Speaker 4: sees it, like he understands that the receiver position needs 2195 01:38:11,520 --> 01:38:13,680 Speaker 4: to be you need to have a different approach and 2196 01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:18,320 Speaker 4: invest more capital, whether it's trade capital or salary cap 2197 01:38:18,479 --> 01:38:21,640 Speaker 4: or high draft picks or whatever in that position. But 2198 01:38:21,760 --> 01:38:25,880 Speaker 4: then you get to the offseason and they don't do it, 2199 01:38:26,160 --> 01:38:29,360 Speaker 4: So obviously there's there's some internal divide there. I think 2200 01:38:29,400 --> 01:38:30,799 Speaker 4: about how to approach that position. 2201 01:38:30,920 --> 01:38:34,360 Speaker 5: It could be Dan of Virginia in Michigan, says. Fred 2202 01:38:34,400 --> 01:38:36,200 Speaker 5: said earlier on the show that he started doing his 2203 01:38:36,280 --> 01:38:39,160 Speaker 5: own draft research. Fred, does that mean your copy of 2204 01:38:39,320 --> 01:38:44,200 Speaker 5: Our Lads finally get delivered? Just kidding, It hasn't come yet. No, 2205 01:38:44,439 --> 01:38:46,720 Speaker 5: by the way, Really it's in the mail, I guess. 2206 01:38:46,800 --> 01:38:46,840 Speaker 9: So. 2207 01:38:47,479 --> 01:38:50,519 Speaker 5: You've recently discussed in the show the possibility or reality 2208 01:38:50,680 --> 01:38:53,879 Speaker 5: of tension between Bill and the players. You've also discussed, 2209 01:38:53,920 --> 01:38:56,120 Speaker 5: though that some of the moves of this soft season 2210 01:38:56,240 --> 01:38:59,080 Speaker 5: may not have been at Belichick's instigation, but rather mister 2211 01:38:59,160 --> 01:39:02,400 Speaker 5: krafts does that race the possibility of tension between Belichick 2212 01:39:02,439 --> 01:39:04,800 Speaker 5: and mister Kraft. If there is tension, is that a 2213 01:39:04,880 --> 01:39:07,639 Speaker 5: bigger deal than whatever tension there might be between Belichick 2214 01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:11,439 Speaker 5: and the players? Yeah, I mean there could be. Certainly, 2215 01:39:12,439 --> 01:39:14,599 Speaker 5: you know, Bill's unnoticed when it comes to the owner, 2216 01:39:15,080 --> 01:39:15,280 Speaker 5: you know. 2217 01:39:15,479 --> 01:39:18,000 Speaker 6: So yeah, I mean what I mean, what more do 2218 01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:18,280 Speaker 6: you need? 2219 01:39:18,320 --> 01:39:19,679 Speaker 3: I think it just goes back to what I said 2220 01:39:19,680 --> 01:39:22,240 Speaker 3: earlier of like you lose football games as part of 2221 01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:24,840 Speaker 3: an AFFL franchise, Like there's there's tension. There's tension in 2222 01:39:24,840 --> 01:39:26,800 Speaker 3: a lot of places. I mean, it's just that's what 2223 01:39:26,960 --> 01:39:29,400 Speaker 3: happens when you're in a hyper competitive business like this 2224 01:39:29,600 --> 01:39:33,280 Speaker 3: and hyper competitive people, and you know, and it's it's 2225 01:39:33,400 --> 01:39:36,360 Speaker 3: hard to you know, build this entire team and get 2226 01:39:36,400 --> 01:39:39,120 Speaker 3: everybody on the same page. So hopefully that's what they're 2227 01:39:39,280 --> 01:39:39,720 Speaker 3: they're doing. 2228 01:39:40,600 --> 01:39:43,000 Speaker 5: Mike says, I hate to say it, but I think 2229 01:39:43,080 --> 01:39:45,840 Speaker 5: we all know deep down, Bill makes the decisions. He 2230 01:39:45,920 --> 01:39:48,799 Speaker 5: will never change. He's stubborn. There is no wide receiver 2231 01:39:48,920 --> 01:39:52,080 Speaker 5: in my opinion worth taking at number fourteen. This class 2232 01:39:52,240 --> 01:39:55,320 Speaker 5: is deep. Twenty five to seventy five trade down grab 2233 01:39:55,400 --> 01:39:57,960 Speaker 5: an extra pick and make sure you grab Charlie Jones 2234 01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:00,360 Speaker 5: at the second or third round. I think think mister 2235 01:40:00,439 --> 01:40:03,320 Speaker 5: Koseki is the new receiver, and I wouldn't be shocked 2236 01:40:03,360 --> 01:40:06,000 Speaker 5: if Bill picks the running back from Texas in the 2237 01:40:06,080 --> 01:40:09,000 Speaker 5: first round. I would be. 2238 01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:11,400 Speaker 6: I would too. 2239 01:40:12,400 --> 01:40:14,000 Speaker 3: The only thing I would say about it, though, is 2240 01:40:14,040 --> 01:40:16,040 Speaker 3: that I think that it's a pick that could generate 2241 01:40:16,080 --> 01:40:17,760 Speaker 3: some excitement at least, like you know if you. 2242 01:40:17,920 --> 01:40:20,040 Speaker 4: I don't know if excitements the word I would use. 2243 01:40:20,200 --> 01:40:23,280 Speaker 3: Well for people like you who know the composition of 2244 01:40:23,360 --> 01:40:26,599 Speaker 3: the team, and for Johnny, you know who lives up 2245 01:40:26,720 --> 01:40:29,680 Speaker 3: somewhere around Boston and you know, oh, the drafts is 2246 01:40:29,720 --> 01:40:30,120 Speaker 3: this weekend. 2247 01:40:30,160 --> 01:40:30,720 Speaker 6: Who'd they get? 2248 01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:32,600 Speaker 3: Well, they got the best running back in the in 2249 01:40:32,640 --> 01:40:33,719 Speaker 3: the in the league from. 2250 01:40:33,680 --> 01:40:34,720 Speaker 5: Texas, Like whoa, whoa? 2251 01:40:34,840 --> 01:40:35,840 Speaker 6: That sounds pretty good, you know. 2252 01:40:35,960 --> 01:40:38,160 Speaker 3: For general fans, I think you know there's something there. 2253 01:40:38,240 --> 01:40:40,760 Speaker 3: But I think for people who know what the league 2254 01:40:40,840 --> 01:40:43,040 Speaker 3: is like, now what the team is like, you want. 2255 01:40:42,960 --> 01:40:47,240 Speaker 5: Different Spi and Fresno couple draft questions. First, does anyone 2256 01:40:47,360 --> 01:40:49,760 Speaker 5: keep track of who the best mock drafters are? 2257 01:40:50,160 --> 01:40:50,200 Speaker 9: Like? 2258 01:40:50,400 --> 01:40:54,320 Speaker 5: Is there a record of which specific draftnick draftnicks are 2259 01:40:54,360 --> 01:40:57,120 Speaker 5: particularly successful at predicting who gets picked where in the 2260 01:40:57,160 --> 01:40:58,519 Speaker 5: first couple of rounds year of the year. 2261 01:40:58,800 --> 01:41:03,439 Speaker 4: There is somebody that does put that together that every 2262 01:41:03,520 --> 01:41:07,559 Speaker 4: year kind of puts together a score for everybody's mock draft. 2263 01:41:07,640 --> 01:41:10,920 Speaker 4: But I do think people have mock drafts all wrong, 2264 01:41:11,320 --> 01:41:14,800 Speaker 4: Like no one gets it right, no one gets it right. 2265 01:41:15,240 --> 01:41:17,800 Speaker 5: I mean, Goslyn used to be pretty close. 2266 01:41:18,040 --> 01:41:20,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, But I think the point is with mock drafts 2267 01:41:20,600 --> 01:41:23,400 Speaker 4: is more to generate discussion, and I think a lot 2268 01:41:23,479 --> 01:41:25,720 Speaker 4: of people get way too caught up and oh yeah, 2269 01:41:26,080 --> 01:41:28,519 Speaker 4: well they weren't right, So what's the point, you know, And. 2270 01:41:28,560 --> 01:41:30,240 Speaker 3: That's why I mean the big board thing, I mean, 2271 01:41:30,280 --> 01:41:33,040 Speaker 3: that's kind of why I started doing that was, you know, 2272 01:41:33,120 --> 01:41:35,000 Speaker 3: the mocks are so specific, it's hard to like, oh, 2273 01:41:35,040 --> 01:41:36,640 Speaker 3: I got a mock draft right. But I felt like, 2274 01:41:37,040 --> 01:41:39,960 Speaker 3: all right, if I give myself fifty guys and I 2275 01:41:40,320 --> 01:41:42,240 Speaker 3: can hit a few of them, then at least each 2276 01:41:42,320 --> 01:41:44,439 Speaker 3: year I can say, look, I'm at least pointing people 2277 01:41:44,520 --> 01:41:46,600 Speaker 3: towards the right direction of the kind of players that 2278 01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:48,479 Speaker 3: I think that they like, that I like that that 2279 01:41:48,560 --> 01:41:50,680 Speaker 3: I think fit.

And that's like, you know, it's 2295 01:42:26,040 --> 01:42:28,280 Speaker 3: a specific one because it's like, well, I thought he 2296 01:42:28,439 --> 01:42:30,360 Speaker 3: was gonna go late first and I didn't think that 2297 01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:31,200 Speaker 3: was a huge need. 2298 01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:32,920 Speaker 6: And you know they ended up he fell and they 2299 01:42:32,960 --> 01:42:34,880 Speaker 6: traded up. So not mad about that one. 2300 01:42:34,920 --> 01:42:37,560 Speaker 3: But like Marcus Jones, I'm like, duce Bro, what what 2301 01:42:37,680 --> 01:42:38,200 Speaker 3: are you doing? 2302 01:42:38,400 --> 01:42:39,439 Speaker 4: Like perfect patriot? 2303 01:42:39,760 --> 01:42:43,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, second question from speed, does anyone assess and systematically 2304 01:42:43,640 --> 01:42:47,280 Speaker 5: tracked team's overall drafting success? I don't mean the supposed 2305 01:42:47,320 --> 01:42:50,639 Speaker 5: grades is signed right after the draft by Espan or whatever. 2306 01:42:50,800 --> 01:42:53,600 Speaker 5: I mean something along the lines, but done two or 2307 01:42:53,640 --> 01:42:54,920 Speaker 5: three years down the road. 2308 01:42:55,080 --> 01:42:58,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, So PFF came out with this last year. I 2309 01:42:58,479 --> 01:43:03,240 Speaker 4: want to say about the nineteen through or the eighteen 2310 01:43:03,320 --> 01:43:05,880 Speaker 4: through twenty drafts or something like that. They twenty one 2311 01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:08,080 Speaker 4: wasn't a part of it because it's too soon to 2312 01:43:08,240 --> 01:43:12,080 Speaker 4: make a determination on that that draft class. But PFF 2313 01:43:12,240 --> 01:43:15,080 Speaker 4: using I think it was like their grades or wins 2314 01:43:15,080 --> 01:43:18,599 Speaker 4: above replacement stat or something like that. They accumulated all 2315 01:43:18,760 --> 01:43:22,400 Speaker 4: draft you know, drafted players and how they performed for 2316 01:43:22,439 --> 01:43:25,200 Speaker 4: their teams, and as you could probably imagine, the Patriots 2317 01:43:25,240 --> 01:43:30,400 Speaker 4: were not very good. It was I believe at the 2318 01:43:30,560 --> 01:43:36,080 Speaker 4: time the Chiefs and were near the top, but they did. 2319 01:43:36,439 --> 01:43:39,000 Speaker 4: They wrote in the methodology that you know, the Chiefs 2320 01:43:39,080 --> 01:43:42,800 Speaker 4: drafted Patrick Mahomes, so obviously like they're they're grading, and 2321 01:43:43,200 --> 01:43:46,120 Speaker 4: you know, the Bengals with Burrow, like it's gonna skyrocket 2322 01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:48,960 Speaker 4: the system because they have this elite player at the 2323 01:43:49,040 --> 01:43:51,320 Speaker 4: top of the board, kind of propelling everything up. But 2324 01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:54,640 Speaker 4: the Patriots were I want to say, twenty eighth or 2325 01:43:54,680 --> 01:43:57,280 Speaker 4: twenty ninth in the league in the time span that 2326 01:43:57,360 --> 01:43:58,160 Speaker 4: they used. 2327 01:43:58,760 --> 01:44:01,439 Speaker 5: Sam in North Carolina on Jersey Mike. He says, next 2328 01:44:01,479 --> 01:44:05,080 Speaker 5: time you get a number thirteen at spicy brown mustard, 2329 01:44:05,120 --> 01:44:06,360 Speaker 5: you'll thank me later. 2330 01:44:06,479 --> 01:44:09,439 Speaker 3: I love the spicy brown mustard on an Italian. Ah. 2331 01:44:09,880 --> 01:44:13,840 Speaker 4: Oh no, I'm a honey mustard guy on an Italian. No, 2332 01:44:14,439 --> 01:44:15,240 Speaker 4: I don't do Italian. 2333 01:44:15,240 --> 01:44:17,559 Speaker 3: I would do I would do mayo on an Italian though, 2334 01:44:17,600 --> 01:44:19,000 Speaker 3: Fred I know that's a no no for you, but 2335 01:44:19,520 --> 01:44:20,559 Speaker 3: I like that tang. 2336 01:44:20,920 --> 01:44:23,799 Speaker 5: Mayo on an Italian. Then it ceases to be an Italian. 2337 01:44:23,880 --> 01:44:25,920 Speaker 3: It is no longer an Italian, but it will still 2338 01:44:25,920 --> 01:44:26,799 Speaker 3: be a delicious sandwich. 2339 01:44:27,080 --> 01:44:29,840 Speaker 5: It could be depending on your palate. It could be 2340 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:33,240 Speaker 5: a delicious sandwich, but do not call it an Italian. 2341 01:44:33,360 --> 01:44:35,680 Speaker 3: I think I waltzed into an Italian by accident when 2342 01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:37,519 Speaker 3: I was a kid, and it had like the oil 2343 01:44:37,640 --> 01:44:39,600 Speaker 3: and like just everything on it, and I was like, 2344 01:44:39,680 --> 01:44:41,479 Speaker 3: this is a delight.

He has us taking 2369 01:45:39,840 --> 01:45:44,120 Speaker 5: Anthony Richardson at fourteen and suggested us trading Mac for 2370 01:45:44,120 --> 01:45:46,880 Speaker 5: a second round pick. I understand he's very raw, but 2371 01:45:47,040 --> 01:45:49,439 Speaker 5: he has a much bigger upside than Mac. Just wanted 2372 01:45:49,479 --> 01:45:52,919 Speaker 5: to hear your thoughts, Anthony Richardson. 2373 01:45:53,080 --> 01:45:59,240 Speaker 4: I would be absolutely shocked if the Patriots had as 2374 01:45:59,320 --> 01:46:02,120 Speaker 4: high of a great on Anthony Richardson as the media does. 2375 01:46:02,200 --> 01:46:05,200 Speaker 5: So who's your quarterback? In the meantime, Trace mcsorly. I mean, 2376 01:46:05,640 --> 01:46:08,439 Speaker 5: you know, he's Anthony richards Is not ready. I don't 2377 01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:09,760 Speaker 5: think the. 2378 01:46:09,800 --> 01:46:13,679 Speaker 4: Way that they have evaluated the quarterback position for every 2379 01:46:13,800 --> 01:46:16,519 Speaker 4: all the evidence that we have is that they really 2380 01:46:16,640 --> 01:46:21,160 Speaker 4: prioritize floor a lot and having guys that have our 2381 01:46:21,360 --> 01:46:24,200 Speaker 4: NFL ready a lot. I mean, they just drafted Mac 2382 01:46:24,280 --> 01:46:27,360 Speaker 4: Jones and Bailey Zappie in two years and both those 2383 01:46:27,439 --> 01:46:31,000 Speaker 4: guys couldn't have more attempts, more and more experience really 2384 01:46:31,080 --> 01:46:33,920 Speaker 4: in the college game. And obviously Mac at Alabama, but 2385 01:46:33,960 --> 01:46:40,160 Speaker 4: Bailey Zappi in college through the ball constantly for multiple seasons. 2386 01:46:40,240 --> 01:46:43,360 Speaker 4: So I think a guy like Anthony Richardson would be 2387 01:46:43,479 --> 01:46:45,960 Speaker 4: totally out of their their type. 2388 01:46:46,120 --> 01:46:47,599 Speaker 6: If this was two years ago, what do you think 2389 01:46:47,640 --> 01:46:47,840 Speaker 6: they do? 2390 01:46:47,960 --> 01:46:49,400 Speaker 3: Do you think? I mean, like if if they didn't 2391 01:46:49,400 --> 01:46:50,920 Speaker 3: if they didn't have Mac, Like if this was the 2392 01:46:51,000 --> 01:46:51,800 Speaker 3: Mac draft, you know. 2393 01:46:51,920 --> 01:46:53,120 Speaker 5: Like they'd bring on Cam Newton. 2394 01:46:54,479 --> 01:46:54,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. 2395 01:46:54,920 --> 01:46:56,599 Speaker 3: I'd like to seem trying to go get Bryce Young. 2396 01:46:58,439 --> 01:47:02,720 Speaker 5: Let's see Tim Wright in quick draft question. What do 2397 01:47:02,840 --> 01:47:05,519 Speaker 5: we think of Jalen Hyatt from Tennessee? What is his 2398 01:47:05,720 --> 01:47:08,640 Speaker 5: range for what round he'll be taken in and do 2399 01:47:08,800 --> 01:47:11,200 Speaker 5: we see him as a fit for the Patriots. I 2400 01:47:11,360 --> 01:47:14,160 Speaker 5: graduated from high school with him, so I've seen almost 2401 01:47:14,240 --> 01:47:16,720 Speaker 5: every game he's played. The dude can ball. So I 2402 01:47:16,840 --> 01:47:18,240 Speaker 5: wondered what your thoughts were. 2403 01:47:18,439 --> 01:47:20,920 Speaker 4: Probably my least favorite receiver in the draft of them. 2404 01:47:21,000 --> 01:47:23,720 Speaker 5: Well, there you go, Sorry, Tim, I didn't I just 2405 01:47:24,160 --> 01:47:24,920 Speaker 5: why don't you like him? 2406 01:47:24,920 --> 01:47:28,639 Speaker 4: Thornton, He's very gimmicky. He didn't really run an NFL 2407 01:47:28,760 --> 01:47:32,639 Speaker 4: route tree. They run a really they run a unique 2408 01:47:32,680 --> 01:47:35,920 Speaker 4: system at Tennessee that's not very NFL pro style, and 2409 01:47:36,400 --> 01:47:39,720 Speaker 4: basically what they did was just find ways to get 2410 01:47:39,840 --> 01:47:41,760 Speaker 4: him off the line of scrimmage without having to go 2411 01:47:41,840 --> 01:47:44,760 Speaker 4: through contact and just turn it into a track meet 2412 01:47:44,920 --> 01:47:48,800 Speaker 4: for him, which he's obviously very effective doing. But unless 2413 01:47:48,880 --> 01:47:50,840 Speaker 4: you're gonna run it the way that Tennessee ran it, 2414 01:47:50,960 --> 01:47:54,120 Speaker 4: it's going to be very difficult to mimic the things 2415 01:47:54,160 --> 01:47:57,880 Speaker 4: that he was doing at Tennessee. And he's got four 2416 01:47:57,880 --> 01:48:01,400 Speaker 4: to four speed like fast, but he is not. He's 2417 01:48:01,479 --> 01:48:05,360 Speaker 4: not electric fast. I don't know why. I think putting 2418 01:48:05,479 --> 01:48:08,599 Speaker 4: him in Taekwon on the team together is very very 2419 01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:12,679 Speaker 4: redundant as well. So yeah, all across the board. 2420 01:48:14,000 --> 01:48:16,560 Speaker 5: Ye earlier we were talking about Gerard Mayo in his 2421 01:48:16,760 --> 01:48:22,360 Speaker 5: role in matt In Bridgeton, Maine poses this theory, and 2422 01:48:22,439 --> 01:48:25,160 Speaker 5: he says, if I don't read the email, that means 2423 01:48:25,240 --> 01:48:28,599 Speaker 5: I agree with his theory, and if I do read 2424 01:48:28,680 --> 01:48:32,160 Speaker 5: the email, that means I don't agree with it. So 2425 01:48:32,240 --> 01:48:35,160 Speaker 5: I'm gonna read it. But his theory is that Mayo 2426 01:48:35,400 --> 01:48:38,320 Speaker 5: is not being pegged for the next head coach, but 2427 01:48:38,600 --> 01:48:42,880 Speaker 5: rather for the next team president. And so he goes 2428 01:48:42,960 --> 01:48:47,040 Speaker 5: on to explain. But he's saying that Robert Kraft will eventually, 2429 01:48:47,840 --> 01:48:51,879 Speaker 5: you know, step aside for whatever reason, Jonathan will elevate 2430 01:48:52,000 --> 01:48:55,919 Speaker 5: to CEO, and then Gerard Mayo slips in his team president. 2431 01:48:56,080 --> 01:48:57,840 Speaker 3: That's an interesting theory. I don't I don't know the 2432 01:48:57,920 --> 01:48:58,559 Speaker 3: dynamics of. 2433 01:48:58,560 --> 01:49:00,760 Speaker 5: All that, but yeah, and he's says that the reason, 2434 01:49:00,840 --> 01:49:05,120 Speaker 5: he says Jonathan is less involved he wants to be 2435 01:49:05,200 --> 01:49:09,720 Speaker 5: less involved in operating the franchise. His reasoning is Jonathan's 2436 01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:14,640 Speaker 5: now sixty, has more of his mother's disposition in philanthropy 2437 01:49:14,720 --> 01:49:15,000 Speaker 5: and all that. 2438 01:49:15,200 --> 01:49:17,439 Speaker 6: And this is where I confirm it. 2439 01:49:18,439 --> 01:49:21,639 Speaker 5: Now, Jonathan loves doing what he does. He's a business 2440 01:49:21,720 --> 01:49:24,439 Speaker 5: guy first and foremost. He's not a philanthropist, although he 2441 01:49:24,560 --> 01:49:29,400 Speaker 5: does do that obviously, But he he's always going to 2442 01:49:29,479 --> 01:49:31,439 Speaker 5: have a hand in running this thing. I don't think 2443 01:49:31,520 --> 01:49:34,960 Speaker 5: he'll ever see that. Now. That doesn't mean he couldn't 2444 01:49:35,000 --> 01:49:37,200 Speaker 5: have a president, and he would be the CEO and 2445 01:49:37,439 --> 01:49:40,479 Speaker 5: could beat Gerard Mayo, but not for those reasons. Not 2446 01:49:40,640 --> 01:49:43,000 Speaker 5: because he wants to not run the business. No, he 2447 01:49:43,160 --> 01:49:45,600 Speaker 5: wants to run the business. But it's interesting. 2448 01:49:45,800 --> 01:49:47,360 Speaker 6: You know, what does a team president do? 2449 01:49:47,479 --> 01:49:49,959 Speaker 3: Is that more that's not as much football stuff. 2450 01:49:49,760 --> 01:49:53,160 Speaker 5: Though it varies from team to team. On some teams 2451 01:49:53,200 --> 01:49:57,040 Speaker 5: the team president really does call the shots. On other teams, 2452 01:49:57,080 --> 01:50:01,040 Speaker 5: the team president is more less football and more everything else. 2453 01:50:01,520 --> 01:50:01,720 Speaker 13: You know. 2454 01:50:02,400 --> 01:50:04,120 Speaker 4: I got to be honest, I think Gerd Mayo has 2455 01:50:04,240 --> 01:50:07,080 Speaker 4: zero interest in being the team president the right of 2456 01:50:07,400 --> 01:50:08,800 Speaker 4: Patriots zero. 2457 01:50:09,120 --> 01:50:09,320 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2458 01:50:09,600 --> 01:50:11,400 Speaker 4: It's he's a football I mean he played, he's a 2459 01:50:11,560 --> 01:50:13,320 Speaker 4: he's a junkie. 2460 01:50:13,400 --> 01:50:17,680 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, you know. So it just depends on the 2461 01:50:17,840 --> 01:50:21,600 Speaker 5: definition of team. You know, every team is different and 2462 01:50:21,720 --> 01:50:23,000 Speaker 5: how they view those roles. 2463 01:50:23,280 --> 01:50:23,439 Speaker 11: You know. 2464 01:50:23,760 --> 01:50:26,120 Speaker 4: I guess maybe the thought is more of that like 2465 01:50:26,240 --> 01:50:29,080 Speaker 4: John Elway role where or you know Cam Neely with 2466 01:50:29,120 --> 01:50:30,080 Speaker 4: the Bruins. 2467 01:50:30,280 --> 01:50:32,640 Speaker 6: He got a players guy. Yeah that's sort of. 2468 01:50:32,760 --> 01:50:37,720 Speaker 4: Running the football operations, but maybe has a GM under him. 2469 01:50:37,760 --> 01:50:40,080 Speaker 4: That's actually on the road and doing all of the 2470 01:50:40,400 --> 01:50:41,000 Speaker 4: nitty gritty. 2471 01:50:41,120 --> 01:50:43,320 Speaker 5: But and so in that case, the GM is a 2472 01:50:43,400 --> 01:50:46,000 Speaker 5: different title, you know, different responsibility. 2473 01:50:46,080 --> 01:50:47,000 Speaker 4: I think he wants to coach. 2474 01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:54,799 Speaker 5: Yeah, Johann writes in He's from Germany. What's your opinion 2475 01:50:54,840 --> 01:50:57,439 Speaker 5: on Hunter Henry? Will he have a comeback year this 2476 01:50:57,640 --> 01:51:00,920 Speaker 5: year after last year's setback? In his first year he 2477 01:51:01,040 --> 01:51:03,759 Speaker 5: was basically one of the most reliable short yardish targets, 2478 01:51:03,800 --> 01:51:07,280 Speaker 5: especially in the red zone for mac Jones two touchdowns 2479 01:51:07,360 --> 01:51:11,400 Speaker 5: versus nine touchdowns in year one. And he says, you 2480 01:51:11,520 --> 01:51:13,479 Speaker 5: went to Munich last year. Fred, it's the whole crew 2481 01:51:13,600 --> 01:51:15,639 Speaker 5: joining you this year for the international game. And will 2482 01:51:15,680 --> 01:51:17,439 Speaker 5: there be any events? Hope to see you this year. 2483 01:51:18,680 --> 01:51:21,880 Speaker 5: Wherever we play, there will be events. So we are 2484 01:51:21,960 --> 01:51:23,880 Speaker 5: going to play. Don't know if it's going to be 2485 01:51:23,960 --> 01:51:28,639 Speaker 5: Munich or Frankfurt, but wherever we do play, there will 2486 01:51:28,680 --> 01:51:31,479 Speaker 5: be lots of events. So what do we think of 2487 01:51:31,720 --> 01:51:32,720 Speaker 5: Hunter Henry this year? 2488 01:51:33,040 --> 01:51:34,680 Speaker 6: I think he'll be I think he'll bounce back. 2489 01:51:34,720 --> 01:51:37,000 Speaker 3: I mean, I just think in a you know, a 2490 01:51:37,360 --> 01:51:40,519 Speaker 3: well designed offense, he'll probably return to the red zone threat. 2491 01:51:40,520 --> 01:51:42,240 Speaker 3: But I mean, I think my bigger question is how 2492 01:51:42,240 --> 01:51:44,840 Speaker 3: do you balance him in Kasiki and you know, not 2493 01:51:44,960 --> 01:51:47,920 Speaker 3: that I feel that a blocking tight end is a necessity, 2494 01:51:48,000 --> 01:51:49,760 Speaker 3: but you know, those guys aren't going to block. And 2495 01:51:49,840 --> 01:51:51,720 Speaker 3: I just I just think it's a weakness on this 2496 01:51:51,840 --> 01:51:54,280 Speaker 3: team that they don't really have, you know, a guy 2497 01:51:54,520 --> 01:51:56,400 Speaker 3: that can that can do both. And I mean at 2498 01:51:56,439 --> 01:51:59,200 Speaker 3: times last year I felt like John Eyuan Hunter were 2499 01:51:59,200 --> 01:52:01,200 Speaker 3: a little bit overwhelm. I mean, I think Connor Henry 2500 01:52:01,200 --> 01:52:02,360 Speaker 3: even said kind of as much. 2501 01:52:02,439 --> 01:52:03,360 Speaker 6: He felt that he improved. 2502 01:52:03,439 --> 01:52:05,600 Speaker 5: But don't you think that's like a fifth round or 2503 01:52:05,640 --> 01:52:07,320 Speaker 5: sixth round pick and they'll get a guy. 2504 01:52:07,479 --> 01:52:09,160 Speaker 3: Well, I think, oh no, and I do, and I 2505 01:52:09,200 --> 01:52:11,120 Speaker 3: think this year, I think they can get that kind 2506 01:52:11,160 --> 01:52:13,640 Speaker 3: of guy to develop behind them and then you know, 2507 01:52:13,720 --> 01:52:15,640 Speaker 3: maybe next year then you have a well rounded guy. 2508 01:52:15,720 --> 01:52:17,320 Speaker 3: But they're you know, they're both kind of more in 2509 01:52:17,439 --> 01:52:20,400 Speaker 3: that f tight end kind of move guy mole that 2510 01:52:20,600 --> 01:52:22,720 Speaker 3: founder's got good size. I think he'll be fine this year. 2511 01:52:22,760 --> 01:52:24,519 Speaker 3: But I just I do wonder if they're a little 2512 01:52:24,560 --> 01:52:26,760 Speaker 3: bit limited with what Kisiki and he are. 2513 01:52:27,160 --> 01:52:29,400 Speaker 4: I would like them to address tight end pretty early 2514 01:52:29,479 --> 01:52:31,200 Speaker 4: in this draft. I just look at this draft and 2515 01:52:32,240 --> 01:52:35,880 Speaker 4: tight end corner edge like those are such good position 2516 01:52:35,960 --> 01:52:40,160 Speaker 4: groups in this draft, deep the talented groups that the 2517 01:52:40,240 --> 01:52:42,160 Speaker 4: tight end you get in the third round this year 2518 01:52:42,840 --> 01:52:44,639 Speaker 4: is not going to be there in the third round 2519 01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:46,160 Speaker 4: next year because the class isn't going to be as 2520 01:52:46,200 --> 01:52:48,320 Speaker 4: good and isn't going to be as deep. So I 2521 01:52:48,400 --> 01:52:50,200 Speaker 4: look at this tight end class and would love to 2522 01:52:50,240 --> 01:52:52,720 Speaker 4: see in that third or fourth round range. We've thrown 2523 01:52:52,760 --> 01:52:55,120 Speaker 4: out a bunch of names, you know, Tucker Kraft, Luke 2524 01:52:55,200 --> 01:52:59,400 Speaker 4: Scoon Maker, one of those guys that can block a 2525 01:52:59,439 --> 01:53:01,120 Speaker 4: little bit. Maybe he has a little bit more blocking 2526 01:53:01,200 --> 01:53:03,840 Speaker 4: chops than what they have. But looking at twenty twenty 2527 01:53:03,880 --> 01:53:06,519 Speaker 4: four and beyond, can then step up and be starting 2528 01:53:06,560 --> 01:53:09,080 Speaker 4: tight ends for you moving forward because those two guys, 2529 01:53:09,160 --> 01:53:11,800 Speaker 4: Henry and Kasiki are one year, one year and out 2530 01:53:12,000 --> 01:53:12,400 Speaker 4: right now. 2531 01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:16,799 Speaker 5: Paul Rainville writes in He's from South Amboy, New Jersey, 2532 01:53:16,920 --> 01:53:19,439 Speaker 5: and there's a lot of amboys in New Jersey. Yeah, 2533 01:53:19,560 --> 01:53:21,759 Speaker 5: this Perth dam Boy, this South d and Boyer. 2534 01:53:22,400 --> 01:53:22,680 Speaker 1: I think. 2535 01:53:22,720 --> 01:53:26,599 Speaker 5: So have you heard have you heard Derek Parrish as 2536 01:53:26,640 --> 01:53:29,479 Speaker 5: a Patriots target late in the draft. I've seen him 2537 01:53:29,520 --> 01:53:32,760 Speaker 5: connected to the Patriots following the James Devlin pathway as 2538 01:53:32,800 --> 01:53:36,000 Speaker 5: a defensive end that transitions to fullback in the NFL. 2539 01:53:36,479 --> 01:53:39,360 Speaker 5: He's super athletic prospect who could fill gaps on both 2540 01:53:39,400 --> 01:53:41,599 Speaker 5: sides of the ball. I think he would stand out 2541 01:53:41,720 --> 01:53:45,320 Speaker 5: as a Day three player. The Patriots would love well 2542 01:53:45,360 --> 01:53:47,920 Speaker 5: that Derek Parrish. Have you gotten that deep yet? 2543 01:53:48,160 --> 01:53:48,360 Speaker 7: Yeah? 2544 01:53:48,400 --> 01:53:51,200 Speaker 4: So Derek Parrish shows at the Shrine Bowl with the Patriots. 2545 01:53:52,000 --> 01:53:54,160 Speaker 4: He was actually on the East team. The Patriots on 2546 01:53:54,200 --> 01:53:56,880 Speaker 4: the West team had Jack Coletto from Oregon State who 2547 01:53:57,000 --> 01:53:59,679 Speaker 4: is the Hornig Award winner. Marcus Jones won the Horneig 2548 01:53:59,680 --> 01:54:02,000 Speaker 4: Award last year. The Patriots drafted and both of those 2549 01:54:02,040 --> 01:54:04,840 Speaker 4: guys have played offense and defense. Both of them played 2550 01:54:04,880 --> 01:54:07,800 Speaker 4: full back slash tight end as a kind of I 2551 01:54:07,840 --> 01:54:10,840 Speaker 4: think Parish is more of that James Devilin type of fullback, 2552 01:54:11,160 --> 01:54:14,040 Speaker 4: whereas Kletta is more like a Kyle Yuschek style fullback 2553 01:54:14,120 --> 01:54:15,800 Speaker 4: that's maybe a little bit more of a move piece. 2554 01:54:16,160 --> 01:54:18,559 Speaker 4: But both of those guys can block. I thought Koletto 2555 01:54:18,600 --> 01:54:21,519 Speaker 4: looked better as a receiver in Vegas a little bit 2556 01:54:21,560 --> 01:54:24,080 Speaker 4: more further along with his hands and the fluidity of 2557 01:54:24,160 --> 01:54:27,760 Speaker 4: his routes. But Parish had at Houston last year. I 2558 01:54:27,800 --> 01:54:30,360 Speaker 4: want to say he had eight sacks rushing the passer 2559 01:54:30,560 --> 01:54:32,880 Speaker 4: on defense, so he can play both ways. I think 2560 01:54:32,920 --> 01:54:35,960 Speaker 4: both of those guys is end of the draft six 2561 01:54:36,040 --> 01:54:39,280 Speaker 4: to seventh round, maybe even UDFA signings. That neither one 2562 01:54:39,320 --> 01:54:41,840 Speaker 4: of them was invited to the combine, which was kind 2563 01:54:41,920 --> 01:54:44,360 Speaker 4: of a snub in my opinion for both guys, Like 2564 01:54:44,400 --> 01:54:46,040 Speaker 4: how do you not invite the Horny Award winner to 2565 01:54:46,040 --> 01:54:49,520 Speaker 4: the combine? Like that's ridiculous. Most versatile player in college football. 2566 01:54:49,560 --> 01:54:51,280 Speaker 4: I don't know how that guy's not at the combine. 2567 01:54:51,320 --> 01:54:53,600 Speaker 4: But both of those guys is in that with that 2568 01:54:53,720 --> 01:54:57,000 Speaker 4: seventh round pick, or maybe as a priority UDFA would 2569 01:54:57,040 --> 01:54:57,360 Speaker 4: fit here. 2570 01:54:58,560 --> 01:55:00,160 Speaker 5: Coming to the end of the show, so we got 2571 01:55:00,240 --> 01:55:02,840 Speaker 5: to take care of some important things. Rob in San 2572 01:55:02,880 --> 01:55:06,920 Speaker 5: Diego via Connecticut says, is oil, vinegar and salt and 2573 01:55:06,960 --> 01:55:10,000 Speaker 5: pepper necessary for an Italian sub to be an Italian sub? 2574 01:55:10,040 --> 01:55:13,760 Speaker 5: I say yes. I think the meats can be somewhat interchangeable, 2575 01:55:13,800 --> 01:55:16,920 Speaker 5: but not the oil, vinegar with salt and pepper. I agree, 2576 01:55:17,320 --> 01:55:21,280 Speaker 5: you have to have those things. Jack says, no, male 2577 01:55:22,040 --> 01:55:24,800 Speaker 5: on an Italian sub, you must must must put oil 2578 01:55:24,800 --> 01:55:27,240 Speaker 5: and vinegar, Come on, man, So I agree with that. 2579 01:55:27,800 --> 01:55:31,440 Speaker 3: I gotta shout out the Godmother Sandwich at Bay Cities 2580 01:55:31,600 --> 01:55:34,760 Speaker 3: in Santa Monica, which is the like, that's one you 2581 01:55:34,800 --> 01:55:36,560 Speaker 3: don't even you don't even tell them what you want. 2582 01:55:36,800 --> 01:55:39,280 Speaker 3: Just give me the Godmother with the works.
