Speaker 1: Welcome aout everybody to do a Monday edition of Texans
Speaker 1: All Access from the Honday Texans Radio studio. John Harris
Speaker 1: alongside the Voice of the Texans Mark Van remark First
Speaker 1: of all, how was your weekend? Johnny was great. You know,
Speaker 1: we have a dog, so there's no wow. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: have a new dog. We talked about this about a
Speaker 1: week and a half old, so we spent time with
Speaker 1: the dog. It's weird to not have I know, there's
Speaker 1: the other league playing, and look, I watched the Rockets
Speaker 1: games and everything, and I know you feel the same way.
Speaker 1: It's just weird to not work a game on a Sunday.
Speaker 1: I'm not in that mode yet. Where wait a minute.
Speaker 1: I actually had two days off in a row this
Speaker 1: weekend and last week, and it didn't feel quite the
Speaker 1: same because the Super Bowl. I watched it in a
Speaker 1: very you know, I watched it as an entertainment commodity,
Speaker 1: but I also watched it in a worklike way to
Speaker 1: see how they handle it. And obviously we've played the
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs and everything. This weekend was a free weekend.
Speaker 1: It's done. It was just weird and I don't feel
Speaker 1: I feel like wait, a minute, I'm getting away with
Speaker 1: something with two days off in a row. Something's I'm
Speaker 1: playing hookey. There's something not right with the universe. Anyway.
Speaker 1: It's a long off season, but a lot of exciting
Speaker 1: stuff will happen, and it is already starting to happen
Speaker 1: around the league, and I know it's going to affect
Speaker 1: the Texans in some way, shape or form. Yeah, we're
Speaker 1: gonna get into a second, but yeah, I was kind
Speaker 1: of the same way I actually planned. It was funny.
Speaker 1: I heard my wife on the phone. She was talking
Speaker 1: to somebody on Thursday, and I just hear say, yeah, well,
Speaker 1: you know, John is taking me down to Dalliston because
Speaker 1: you know, from like July through February, we just can't
Speaker 1: do anything because it's football season. I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's it. That's about right. Does she accept this or
Speaker 1: does she grudgingly, okayrudgingly what she needs to talk to
Speaker 1: Missus van Gundi. Did I ever tell you about my
Speaker 1: wife's conversation with Jeff van Gundi's wife, No, Missus van Gundi,
Speaker 1: she said, Missus van Gundi gave my wife the best
Speaker 1: advice ever, which is, during the season, don't even think
Speaker 1: about him. Yeah, don't, don't, don't, don't mess with it.
Speaker 1: He won't be there for anything. If he is, it's
Speaker 1: a bonus. Assume everything's off and he's always going to
Speaker 1: be doing something with the sport. And she said, oh,
Speaker 1: it kind of opened her eyes to that. So but
Speaker 1: then when the sport is over, Yeah, as Bill and
Speaker 1: Bryan likes to say, it's re entry time. A honey
Speaker 1: do list the size of the Magna carta. And it's
Speaker 1: still not really accepted during the season. Believe me, it's
Speaker 1: still kind of a challenge. So we went down, we
Speaker 1: went down to Galveson, like way west of Galveston. Well,
Speaker 1: we like, there's a place way west that we like
Speaker 1: because it's away from all the hustle and bustle. And
Speaker 1: we just had a we had a good weekend, so
Speaker 1: it was it was good to get away. And of
Speaker 1: course on the way home, I look over and I
Speaker 1: could just see this like no smile on a face.
Speaker 1: I'm like, what's wrong? Because I don't want to leave.
Speaker 1: It's hard to lead the beach, man, It is hard
Speaker 1: to leave the beach. It's really die down there, and
Speaker 1: they've you know, really done a lot of work to
Speaker 1: it since, like, yeah, very much. So I'm very much
Speaker 1: impressed with the people, the Bois and the is an
Speaker 1: IBC Islanders by choice, and the Bois, the born on
Speaker 1: the island. Yeah, the porn on the people there there,
Speaker 1: it's it. I well, we've got a different beating. We've
Speaker 1: gone to beaches all over the place because my wife
Speaker 1: and I love going to the beach and you run
Speaker 1: into the Bois like born on Yeah, they are there,
Speaker 1: And I always wonder what that life must have been like,
Speaker 1: like flip flops every day growing up? Yeah, just every
Speaker 1: day growing up living. That's all you do, is you live.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, well, I mean it's not like
Speaker 1: you're out in the tropics. If you do, you are
Speaker 1: part of society. You are. That's true. That downtown area though,
Speaker 1: I just I love it. It's gotten different feel to it.
Speaker 1: We uh, we we went downtown. It's funny because we've
Speaker 1: we've always we go down there. We just hit the
Speaker 1: sea wall at sixty first and just go right. We
Speaker 1: just go westown, so we don't really go downtown. And
Speaker 1: so my sister in law was actually in town. She
Speaker 1: had a conference over in Nassa, and so she's like, well,
Speaker 1: Meta's over on the strand. We're like, all right, So
Speaker 1: we met over the strand and we're like, this is cool,
Speaker 1: Like we had a real school. It was really really
Speaker 1: a lot of nooks and crannies. They're a lot of
Speaker 1: fun and uh and the sports history, you know, Galveston ball.
Speaker 1: It's funny because we were talking. We're down there for
Speaker 1: a management retreat last week and we were talking to
Speaker 1: a boi and he said he was just mentioning Barry White.
Speaker 1: I said, look, I'm all about Barry White and Galveston
Speaker 1: and all that, but you know, I'm talking about Mike
Speaker 1: Evans and I'm talking about Casey Hampton and people like that.
Speaker 1: So that's pretty cool. Yeah, it's very cool. Okay, So
Speaker 1: Bill Barnwell of ESPN, it's a really neat thing that
Speaker 1: he's put together, and with his ESPN people, it's very
Speaker 1: very cool. So what he has put together, if you
Speaker 1: get a chance going to follow him, he has highlighted one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
Speaker 1: eight is Rivers eight. So he's got eight players that
Speaker 1: are names that everybody knows, right, And so what he's
Speaker 1: done is he's kind of made this like rolling, rolling
Speaker 1: thing where if you roll on the guy, all of
Speaker 1: a sudden you see him in a different jersey than
Speaker 1: you're used to seeing. So he's got Cam Newton and
Speaker 1: then oh no, he's got him in a Dolphins jersey.
Speaker 1: Good and I'm like whoa. But then down below he
Speaker 1: has three different options, so you can have it on
Speaker 1: Cam Newton and then you can click one of the
Speaker 1: three options and he changes jersey. It's really cool. So
Speaker 1: each guy has three different options that Bill is actually presenting.
Speaker 1: So this is all about presentation, but it's basically three
Speaker 1: different options for these players and it's the needest thing.
Speaker 1: So he went through and he's got these eight players.
Speaker 1: So I was rolling through and didn't expect much out
Speaker 1: of there from the Texans, etc. And then he put
Speaker 1: Chris Harris Junior on there. So here are the three
Speaker 1: options that he has determined for Chris Harris Jr. Thirty
Speaker 1: one year old cornerback with the Dever Broncos. Been with
Speaker 1: the Broncos' entire career. Was undrafted free agent out of
Speaker 1: Kansas and a really good Kansas career, didn't run exceptionally
Speaker 1: well to combine, didn't get drafted, went to Denver, has
Speaker 1: been unbelievable in Denver has been fantastic. So here are
Speaker 1: the three options that Barnewell presents. You tell me if
Speaker 1: these one of them being a Texans option. So let's
Speaker 1: see how it fairs. Number one. His first option is
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs signed Chris Harris Junior to a
Speaker 1: four year, forty eight million dollars deal. I don't know
Speaker 1: where they're gonna find the money. I'm sure they have it,
Speaker 1: but well they if they signed them a homes deal
Speaker 1: like how I mean they've got and they've got other
Speaker 1: big contracts. I mean, Tyrn Matthews not cheap for them,
Speaker 1: by the way, right, it's a fourteen million a year
Speaker 1: or something like that. Yeah, on average, he's fourteen million years. Now,
Speaker 1: congratulations have won the super Bowl. But now you gotta
Speaker 1: move forward. You gotta pay the credit card. Talk to
Speaker 1: the Rams. How that's going. They didn't win the super Bowl,
Speaker 1: but they were in it and now they're really suffering.
Speaker 1: Cap one. I want to get to that one too. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's because that's an interesting one. And then his second
Speaker 1: option is Jets signing a four year, sixty two million
Speaker 1: dollars deal with the Jets. The Jets obviously could use it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: third option him with Jamal Adams in that secondary the
Speaker 1: funny thing, all right, go go to the third third option.
Speaker 1: The Texans signed Chris Harris Junior to a four year,
Speaker 1: fifty six million dollars deal. Now here's what he said.
Speaker 1: A year ago. The Texans signed form Brockers corner Bradley
Speaker 1: Roby to a one year deal to try to show
Speaker 1: up a thin quarterback group. Now they'll make a more
Speaker 1: substantial deal with Harris, who will start alongside Lonnie Johnson
Speaker 1: Garyan Colley at twenty twenty. This contract should have would
Speaker 1: have two fully guaranteed seasons. Yeah, it's a thirty one
Speaker 1: year old corner, right, four years, fifty six million dollars
Speaker 1: with two years. What is your gut reaction to that?
Speaker 1: All right? So that's Bill Barnwell saying that. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think you know. It's gonna be interesting, obviously to see
Speaker 1: how Bill O'Brien handles a full offseason, a free agency
Speaker 1: with his hand on the trigger. And they do have
Speaker 1: some money, but they have some big contracts they obviously
Speaker 1: want to take care of. And there's not a ton leftover,
Speaker 1: but there's money leftover. Uh I know, I'm not answering
Speaker 1: the question here. The funny thing is, I'm thinking, I
Speaker 1: don't know if you want to go for a thirty
Speaker 1: one year old, no matter who it is. And then
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, but I don't want to go in to
Speaker 1: the chiefs whatever. But I don't want to go in
Speaker 1: to the chiefs. So what is that feeling I have
Speaker 1: about not wanting to see him in Kansas City? Like
Speaker 1: I'm not sure he's gonna be a bust from here
Speaker 1: on out. It's Chris Harris, right, you know, So you're thinking, well,
Speaker 1: is it worth it to go for the two years guaranteed?
Speaker 1: That's that's a tough decision. I'm not saying coin flip decision,
Speaker 1: but that's a tough decision. I don't want to either.
Speaker 1: I don't want to even call it a luxury decision
Speaker 1: because I think that it does come into play how
Speaker 1: you deal with Laramie Tunsel and or de Sean with
Speaker 1: their big deals. And then you have to see what
Speaker 1: do I have left in the cookie jar to sign
Speaker 1: somebody like this? And I don't know how they feel
Speaker 1: about it. Do they feel like if we improve the
Speaker 1: pass rush, certainly they're gonna add to the secondary. We
Speaker 1: know this, but do we have to add at that
Speaker 1: top flight Rolls Royce free agent level or do we
Speaker 1: go with a little more conservative approach in free agency
Speaker 1: with the cornerback position or draft and take it from there.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, they It's funny because Johnny,
Speaker 1: when you look at what happened against the Chiefs, you think,
Speaker 1: are they ever gonna be able to stop anybody again?
Speaker 1: You know, the feeling the recency element comes into play
Speaker 1: when you're evaluating these things. And then you look at Cheese.
Speaker 1: They did well against Tom Brady, and they did well
Speaker 1: against Rivers, and they did well against a lot of
Speaker 1: these quarterbacks. So they actually did fairly well against Mahomes
Speaker 1: the first time they intercepted Winston four times. I know
Speaker 1: Winston does get picked off, but he was pretty hot
Speaker 1: going into that game and they derailed him. So they
Speaker 1: did have some moments with the guys they had in
Speaker 1: the secondary. So I guess my answer is maybe with
Speaker 1: Chris Harris Junior at that price tech. But remember this,
Speaker 1: I don't know what he wants, but the highest bidder
Speaker 1: tends to win these things. I think for him, he's
Speaker 1: got a ring. He's thirty one. It's probably the last one, right,
Speaker 1: So how important is that to him? If I were him,
Speaker 1: I'm going for every dollar I can find. I think
Speaker 1: he is gonna try and find every dollar he can
Speaker 1: find at the team that has an opportunity to win. Okay,
Speaker 1: So he's not gonna go, well the Jets. The Jets
Speaker 1: don't make money, seemingly do not have an opportunity to win.
Speaker 1: Now if that's the only option he has, okay, Well, yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: I mean levi on Bell went there. But how many
Speaker 1: opportunities did he a? Right? Exactly exactly? So I don't
Speaker 1: know how I feel about that deal. I'd much rather
Speaker 1: look at other opportunities. In fact, I would look at
Speaker 1: Byron Jones, okay of Dallas throwing that same money and
Speaker 1: see if he took it. I would I would look
Speaker 1: at more Byron. I mean he's a he's a younger
Speaker 1: guy by five six years. Did you see the right
Speaker 1: up on Namdi this weekend? And you know Namdi the
Speaker 1: actor and no Nambie the actor. Yeah, Nambie the actor.
Speaker 1: I'll pull it up for you. But but the point
Speaker 1: is this, it revisited that whole free agent blitz of
Speaker 1: it because he had the lockout, he had like a
Speaker 1: two day frenzy. I mean it was that was nuts.
Speaker 1: It was really good. That was it was really good.
Speaker 1: It was was really it was nuts. But you're right,
Speaker 1: it was really cool to do it all in a
Speaker 1: couple of days. Like this is awesome now I know.
Speaker 1: And having talked to players and we talked to JJO
Speaker 1: about this, right, how nervous are you getting You're a
Speaker 1: free agent? Like, how nervous are you getting right about now?
Speaker 1: Like make a deal already? Yeah, do something? Um okay.
Speaker 1: So that was Chris Harris Jr. Now the Texans are
Speaker 1: mentioned with one other player on this group of eight.
Speaker 1: The ocho is Well I would call it, and it's
Speaker 1: a running back. Can I interest you in a Melvin Gordon?
Speaker 1: Barnwell says, and I I look at this and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't think there is a chance in haities of
Speaker 1: this happening. But he says he's got three options from
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon. Number one is the Bucks sign a four year,
Speaker 1: thirty six million dollars deal with the Bucks. Then he's
Speaker 1: got the Redskins, which I don't see the Redskins doing it.
Speaker 1: They got Darius geiss I don't. I mean, but guys
Speaker 1: size trouble staying help. It's got to be a team
Speaker 1: that wants to win now or very soon. He's twenty
Speaker 1: six years old, he says, Gordon held out for a
Speaker 1: new contract. They didn't get it. Now he's a free agent. Well,
Speaker 1: a team pony up to pay the twenty six year
Speaker 1: old running back. So he said twenty six years old
Speaker 1: with meaning? Is that meaning like he's still got some Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's a young man. And then the Texans is the
Speaker 1: third option. How would this taste? What is this? The
Speaker 1: Texans sign Melvin Gordon to a five year, fifty million dollars. No,
Speaker 1: it's not happening. I don't think it's happen. He's not
Speaker 1: paying that money for a running back. You know, he's
Speaker 1: not going to do that. I don't think us now
Speaker 1: Gordon at the top of his game is great. Maybe
Speaker 1: get right back to the top of his game. You know,
Speaker 1: holdouts and things like that, they're just so bad for everybody,
Speaker 1: especially running backs. I think, Oh, by the way, quick
Speaker 1: cleaning something up here. Namdi limited run play on Broadway.
Speaker 1: It's called a Soldier's Play and it closes on March fifteenth,
Speaker 1: So it was I guess designed to be a limited
Speaker 1: run play. David alec Grier him, isn't it? Who's also in? Um?
Speaker 1: You know? I know him best for Boomerang? Yeah, of
Speaker 1: course Boomerang. Everybody, everybody for Boomerang. Yes, John Winerspoon. They
Speaker 1: showed John Winerspoon. Oh and the on the montage. That's
Speaker 1: my favorite part of the Oscars, The dead people. You know,
Speaker 1: I love the dead People's segment. I love the Dead
Speaker 1: People's segment at the Grammys, the Emmys and the Oscars.
Speaker 1: They forgot somebody though, who they forgot last night. They
Speaker 1: forgot Luke Perry, Dylan from all. They forgot Luke pays
Speaker 1: in a movie called Eight Seconds of This Bull Riding.
Speaker 1: He's in a few other movies, and he was just
Speaker 1: in a Hallmark movie. My wife was watching the other
Speaker 1: day and I got really sat walked in. It was like,
Speaker 1: that's Luke Perry. Yeah past the sps do it two
Speaker 1: now really well? And I just love the dead People's segment.
Speaker 1: They should just call it the dead people. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm being disrespectful they I know, I know I
Speaker 1: like it. And they finished of course with us you
Speaker 1: know what I love And I know John's like rolling
Speaker 1: his eyes right now. You're not, but I bet you
Speaker 1: are internally because at a at a meeting, at one
Speaker 1: of our department meetings, I brought up the Dead People's
Speaker 1: segment once and I said, I love seeing like the
Speaker 1: guys who who passed away, who you never heard of,
Speaker 1: like a sound effects editor who worked But they'll show
Speaker 1: a little mini clip on the movie ben Her, you
Speaker 1: know he worked on this. I think I miked up
Speaker 1: the Chariots and ben Her or whatever. No, it was
Speaker 1: a serious job. Charlton Hestad and ben Hart was a
Speaker 1: huge production. Like nobody knows who this guy is, but
Speaker 1: now he's no longer with us. This shows you appreciate
Speaker 1: life while it's here. Get every ounce of the marrow
Speaker 1: out of life, because it's gonna go. At some point.
Speaker 1: Everyone's gonna forget. No one's gonna know that you miked
Speaker 1: up the Chariots and been Her until they recognize you
Speaker 1: at the Oscars or first you can play an iconic
Speaker 1: figure like Dylan McKay I'm and they'll forget about you.
Speaker 1: I will be honest. I like that segment too. I
Speaker 1: like that segment too. It's my favorite. They started to
Speaker 1: stay up for it. I didn't care who cares? I
Speaker 1: didn't know. I mean I Joaquin Phoenix, I see Joker.
Speaker 1: I didn't see it. I haven't seen it. I don't
Speaker 1: know that it's very I don't know it looks really
Speaker 1: really into. I don't even have a desire to see it.
Speaker 1: I don't have a desire to see it. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Like I was gonna say, why do we glamorize bad guys?
Speaker 1: But I'm into good Fellows and the Godfather, and that's
Speaker 1: glamorizing bad guys. So what? And the Irishman got nominated? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but for some reason, I don't know. I just don't
Speaker 1: don't need to see the darkness that is the Joker. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I thought he'd ledger even had some comic relief there.
Speaker 1: I don't. Maybe I can't judge the movie. I haven't
Speaker 1: seen it, so maybe so good and I haven't. I
Speaker 1: haven't seen Join Po. I know Joaquin Phoenix has played
Speaker 1: some amazing characters. He's a great Johnny Cash he didn't
Speaker 1: so well. I had no when he played Johnny Cash
Speaker 1: and he sang the songs, I mean, Jamie Fox did
Speaker 1: Ray Charles Ryan. They overdubbed the songs the the original version.
Speaker 1: I could not believe that Joaquin Phoenix pulled off Johnny Cash,
Speaker 1: and with Johnny Cash's iconic, unique voice, he still pulled
Speaker 1: it off. But his speech was kind of all over
Speaker 1: the place. He had a couple of moments, yea rene
Speaker 1: speech like where I'm like, why are we talking about cows?
Speaker 1: And I think I understand why we were, why he
Speaker 1: brought it up, but like, just just thank the people
Speaker 1: worked on the movie, right, That's all you gotta do.
Speaker 1: That's all you gotta do is thank the people that
Speaker 1: mike you up every single day. That's it. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: we gotta get back on track and we will do that.
Speaker 1: Next discuss more of these free agents and how it
Speaker 1: impacts the Texas and AFC South. Next right here on
Speaker 1: Texas All Axis. Welcome back to m on edition of
Speaker 1: Texas All Axis from the Honday Texans Radio Studio. I'm
Speaker 1: your host, John Harris alongside Mark vander Meer. And somehow,
Speaker 1: some way we got on the oscars and the Dead
Speaker 1: People's segment. I don't know how we did it, but
Speaker 1: we found a way to do just that. That's called
Speaker 1: a tangent. Ladies and gentlemen, we do that often. We
Speaker 1: were talking about in article that Bill Barnewell put out
Speaker 1: with some tremendous presentation that allows you to kind of
Speaker 1: swipe less, swipe right, change teams for eight very influential
Speaker 1: NFL players heading into this offseason. And I'll start with
Speaker 1: one that was often rumored to come to the Texans
Speaker 1: because he was holding out because of some things that
Speaker 1: were happening in Washington, and that was Trent Williams. Oh,
Speaker 1: he has him coming here as a let me, let
Speaker 1: me he has three AFC teams, all right. The Cleveland
Speaker 1: Browns trade a second round pick for Trent Williams. The
Speaker 1: Dolphins trade back our pick the twenty six pick for
Speaker 1: Trent Williams and a second round pick. And last, and
Speaker 1: certainly not least, Oh my god, Trent Williams ends up
Speaker 1: with the Patriots. Oh, trade their top pick. The Patriots
Speaker 1: trade the top pick for Trent Williams and a second
Speaker 1: round pick. Let me ask you this, Johnny, I don't
Speaker 1: like if Tonsil. See we all assume the Tonsils straight
Speaker 1: up two number ones and Stills is a number two.
Speaker 1: You know that trade was a package deal, so you know,
Speaker 1: how do you pull it apart? Break it up and
Speaker 1: decide the value of things. Is tounsil worth the two ones? Look,
Speaker 1: it was two ones and a two basically with the
Speaker 1: other stuff for Tonsil and Stills and and two of
Speaker 1: the draft picks, right, So you have to look at
Speaker 1: it like, well, you gave them Davenport, you know, so
Speaker 1: let's just remove the other gave the Dolphins. You gave
Speaker 1: the Dolphins players that were not they were not going
Speaker 1: to make your roster. No, in all likelihood death, they
Speaker 1: were not credit to him. He played, but they won
Speaker 1: some games with him. I think he started the game
Speaker 1: they when they beat the Patriots. I think you're right,
Speaker 1: so good for him. But the thing is this, Uh,
Speaker 1: I just I wonder what Williams is worth on the
Speaker 1: open market? Is it a one and a two? Does
Speaker 1: that sound about right? You for Trent Williams, who's older
Speaker 1: than Tonsil? Well there, I mean Bill Barnon will suggesting
Speaker 1: the Browns traded just a second round pick for him.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't see that happening. Now. That's ah,
Speaker 1: we need to get rid of him. We gotta move
Speaker 1: on he you know whatever. I think maybe Washington does that,
Speaker 1: or are they trying to make nice but are they
Speaker 1: trying to make nice with them? I Revere, I try
Speaker 1: and make nice with him, but I mean, Bruce Allen's
Speaker 1: moved on, right, so the Brett now Snider still there,
Speaker 1: but they've changed out brass and maybe it's possible. Helps
Speaker 1: you make nice with him and look, and maybe you
Speaker 1: pay him a little bit more money. Look, what helps
Speaker 1: every situation? What helps every situation? Yeah, lots of it.
Speaker 1: You can sit on a talk with guys all you
Speaker 1: want him and we look, we really love you. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's fine, it's fine. Hey, we'd like to redo your
Speaker 1: contract and we'd like to give you a little bit
Speaker 1: more money. Up run Where did I sign? Yeah? It definitely, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's simple, but it can be. It's it's like putting
Speaker 1: back teen in the wound, right. It really a numbing
Speaker 1: agent as well. It does soothe. Now if I'm roun vera,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to do that, and I'm also living in
Speaker 1: an NFC East. That's not like automatically winnable, but it
Speaker 1: kind of is if you there's opportunity there. I don't
Speaker 1: know about the quarterback situation. I don't know how they
Speaker 1: feel about Haskins. They can say whatever they want right now,
Speaker 1: they're grinding through that tape and that's a tough decision
Speaker 1: to make. It reminds me of you know, Arizona coming
Speaker 1: in and having to evaluate Rosen. But they had a
Speaker 1: really well Washington's gonna pick pretty high too, right, so
Speaker 1: number two, Yeah, that's pretty high. So they have a
Speaker 1: decision to make. Are we okay with Haskins? What are
Speaker 1: we gonna do? He'll roll with Haskins because if it
Speaker 1: bottoms out, if it completely like Haskins is just phenomenally bad,
Speaker 1: and the Redskins go one to fifteen. I guess who's
Speaker 1: sitting at the end of that rainbow, Trevor Lawrence Clemson.
Speaker 1: So you think, all right, I hate doing that, though,
Speaker 1: it's like the hate doing I'm just saying, if it
Speaker 1: if it's gonna be great, if it were gonna be great.
Speaker 1: You can't guarantee me anything. Oh no, you can't guarantee
Speaker 1: any of that. But when you watch a guy, you go, okay,
Speaker 1: that's what a quarterback looks like. That's what a guy
Speaker 1: supposed to look. He should be able to come in
Speaker 1: and do something you think, You think, okay. There's also
Speaker 1: a man by the name of Tom Brady on this list.
Speaker 1: All right, what does he have him wearing? What what uniforms?
Speaker 1: In the Bill Barnwell Interactive column, He's got an he's
Speaker 1: got an NFC North team, all right, that would be
Speaker 1: the not the Browns, the Bengals, NFC North. Oh, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: NFC North, that would be the Bears, the Bears. The
Speaker 1: Bears signed Tom Brady to a four year, one hundred
Speaker 1: and ten million dollars deal. First of all, why are
Speaker 1: you signing Tom Brady to a four year deal? Stupid?
Speaker 1: I mean, not a smart IDEA Chargers trying to be polite.
Speaker 1: It's a new year, a new beginning Chargers. The Chargers
Speaker 1: signed Tom Brady to a five year, one highty million
Speaker 1: dollars deal with one year guaranteed. I mean, that's all
Speaker 1: you can do. I guess you know. He says this
Speaker 1: deal three guaranteed years. That means Brady's playing ntil forty five.
Speaker 1: So it's about the money. I mean, it's always about
Speaker 1: the money. A little bit. We were just talking about that.
Speaker 1: You want the third team, give me the third team, Coults.
Speaker 1: Tom Brady gets a four year, one hundred sixty million
Speaker 1: dollars deal from the Indianapolis Colts. Ballard's not going to
Speaker 1: do that. There's no way. There's no way. He wouldn't
Speaker 1: do that any Look the way going anywhere, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a two year deal. It's gonna be a two
Speaker 1: year deal. That's all you can do with Tom Brady.
Speaker 1: Now you might want to pay, or you can sign
Speaker 1: him to five, but it better be a two year
Speaker 1: guarantee and he retires and then you're done, and that's it.
Speaker 1: You would think, if you're Tom Brady, John, where are
Speaker 1: you going? If it's if it's not New England And
Speaker 1: at this point, look, we don't live inside that bubble,
Speaker 1: that building. I just feel like they might want to
Speaker 1: be breaking up, you know what I mean? Don't you
Speaker 1: feel like they want to break up? Why aren't they
Speaker 1: together yet? Why haven't they patched it up? Craft is
Speaker 1: gonna come in and promise him another island in the
Speaker 1: Pacific Ocean somewhere in addition to the one he's already
Speaker 1: promised him in my fictional scenario here, if I'm if
Speaker 1: I'm Brady and I'm thinking about it, I I'm just
Speaker 1: thinking about the teams that we played in which ones
Speaker 1: I think if you insert Tom Brady into that world.
Speaker 1: Does that team have an opportunity to make some serious
Speaker 1: noise in the ANFC? Coults yes, Colts, Yes, Raiders, Yes, Titans, Yes, Chargers. Yes.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that Philip was was the problem. But
Speaker 1: Philip just started turning the ball over way too often, hasn't.
Speaker 1: He always had a few key turning right, But in
Speaker 1: the years that they were good, he would kind of
Speaker 1: keep it under control, Like twenty eighteen they were very
Speaker 1: very good. He would keep it under control, exactly right,
Speaker 1: and they didn't have that this year. I just don't
Speaker 1: think Ballard does it. But I love the first line
Speaker 1: of Barnell's little blur per. He says, what's the ultimate
Speaker 1: revenge on Josh McDaniels for leaving the Colts at the altar?
Speaker 1: That's that's pretty good. They don't play him, don't They
Speaker 1: don't play him this year? I would think, I mean,
Speaker 1: the Raiders are very intrigued, but I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't think Brady wants to go to Vegas for Gruden,
Speaker 1: does he. I don't think Brady wants to learn a
Speaker 1: whole new offense. Probably not, But Brady can break. You
Speaker 1: know you're gonna I mean, think about what happened when
Speaker 1: they took our computer away. We'd learned this radio program.
Speaker 1: It's like what No, And it's literally the same thing,
Speaker 1: but it was like no. But you're right. It's a
Speaker 1: great little analogy because it's like the terminology is different,
Speaker 1: the commands are different. How do I how do I
Speaker 1: normalize my voice? All of it's different. Uh. And then
Speaker 1: there is Philip Rivers, which we know Philip is now available, right,
Speaker 1: so where does he have Rivers going? He's got three teams,
Speaker 1: two and the NFC South, the Bucks and the Panthers,
Speaker 1: and one in the AFC South, really the Indianapolis Colts.
Speaker 1: And he says, the Colts give Philip Rivers a two year,
Speaker 1: sixty two million dollars to be their starter, which begs
Speaker 1: the question, who would you rather face for the next
Speaker 1: two years, Philip Rivers twice a year or Tom Brady
Speaker 1: twice a year. I'll take my chances on Rivers because
Speaker 1: the upside of Brady is just too frightening in a
Speaker 1: cult's uniform. I mean, what are you trying to do?
Speaker 1: Give me nightmares here? I already despise the Colts more
Speaker 1: than any other team. And now you're gonna put Tom
Speaker 1: Brady in that uniform. This is ridiculous. Okay, So here's
Speaker 1: how I'll present it to you this way. Okay, So
Speaker 1: Tom Brady for a couple of years, Philip Rivers for
Speaker 1: a couple of years, or they drafted quarterback at thirteen
Speaker 1: who ends up being the future for them. Yeah. See,
Speaker 1: I don't like that either, but they might want to
Speaker 1: do that anyway. They're not gonna do that anyway if
Speaker 1: they sign one of those. They've got Brissette. I think
Speaker 1: Brissette's contract has one more year. It's an interest and
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's guaranteed, though. We're gonna talk
Speaker 1: about this also, Yeah, I think it's one more Yeah,
Speaker 1: whatever it is, they can they can move on from it.
Speaker 1: But here's the point, and I would keep him around
Speaker 1: injuries whatever, you always solid. If he's healthy, you can
Speaker 1: do a whole lot of damage. But my thought is this,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna talk about this all offseason. The cults,
Speaker 1: from their perspective, is it the right thing to do
Speaker 1: to go out and get one of these guys these
Speaker 1: you know, Philip Rivers time already old man of the
Speaker 1: c type quarterbacks, or do you go draft somebody and
Speaker 1: have him learn underbrush set and do it that way.
Speaker 1: It's an interesting question because like, how can I win
Speaker 1: quickly but not mortgage the future? Because look, otherwise the
Speaker 1: AFC South potentially sails away from you, but the Titans
Speaker 1: and the Texans potentially. But what's your window in Indianapolis is?
Speaker 1: Are you worried about your window closing? Think about indianapolis
Speaker 1: best players, Quinn Nelson, Darius Leonard. I mean t Y
Speaker 1: t Wise getting a little well, he's getting up there
Speaker 1: in age. But you can find it, Ty, You can
Speaker 1: find it received you can. But you know what if
Speaker 1: I have if I have a healthy Brady or a
Speaker 1: Rivers that still can play, I feel like I can
Speaker 1: do it this year. I can win the division, I
Speaker 1: can get at least the wild card, and I can
Speaker 1: get back to the postseason. That's what you want to do.
Speaker 1: You take your shot. But if you if I draft
Speaker 1: a guy, where am I I might? I might get there?
Speaker 1: But where am I really going here? You know? Yeah? True?
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with the quarterback? Who would you games?
Speaker 1: Would you rather have Tom Brady and you go ten
Speaker 1: and six and you get a wild card? Or would
Speaker 1: you rather go seven and nine having drafted Jordan Love,
Speaker 1: and you stick Jordan Love in there, and by the
Speaker 1: end of year one you're like, Okay, we know we
Speaker 1: got we know we have and we've got the future
Speaker 1: of this franchise for a while. Here's the thing about
Speaker 1: all this. You have to do what's right for the team. Yes,
Speaker 1: you also need to be competitive asap, because it's still
Speaker 1: a business. You know, it's still you know here like
Speaker 1: the Texans are winning, people are mad about the way
Speaker 1: it ended. It's still a business. You know. It's a business,
Speaker 1: a professional football. You're trying to win games. You want
Speaker 1: to ignite the fan base. You want everybody to be
Speaker 1: happy as much as possible. Obviously that's not always gonna
Speaker 1: be possible. Yeah, it's not always gonna be possible. But
Speaker 1: I just don't think that Ballot would do either. Really,
Speaker 1: I don't think he would do either. I just get
Speaker 1: I mean, raft a guy. He's probably earned the clout
Speaker 1: to draft somebody and not wait wait is the wrong word,
Speaker 1: but develop, Yeah, I think so. And I think they'll
Speaker 1: go one more year with Jacob Brisett and think they'll
Speaker 1: draft the right guy and then that'll be the future.
Speaker 1: And not to say that they want to sacrifice. I've
Speaker 1: just learned that aspect of things life in the NFL.
Speaker 1: People talking about that, well, I'll just eat you, just
Speaker 1: eat er. Heck no, yeah, yeah, you can't. You can't
Speaker 1: even dolphin. You can't even think that way. The Dolphins
Speaker 1: did it, but and they did it, and then it
Speaker 1: drove them crazy. So they went and decided to win
Speaker 1: some games, and they actually did, and they beat the
Speaker 1: Patriots in the last day of the regular and they
Speaker 1: still might end up with too. I just don't. I
Speaker 1: just don't want the colt end up with two. Is
Speaker 1: the one guy I just don't want to face twice
Speaker 1: a year. I just don't. I just don't. We're already
Speaker 1: gonna have to face Mahomes twice a year. Ye. Playoffs, Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course, that's the way you gotta think. That's when
Speaker 1: the truth the Chiefs come up. I'm like, I start
Speaker 1: thinking about the Chiefs like a division team. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: think that's the way you have to start doing in
Speaker 1: the past. Yeah, we've seen them more than any other team, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe the Patriot, No, the Chiefs. Two playoffs? Yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: two playoffs. Mark appreciate it. Thanks Johnny Now one of
Speaker 1: those guys that we mentioned some big news about him
Speaker 1: today out in LA. What is the next home for
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers because of what happened today. We'll talk about
Speaker 1: that next as we go around the NFL. Right here
Speaker 1: in Texas All Access thirty two for the Chargers at
Speaker 1: the Houston seven Rivers and the gutten two receivers. Right,
Speaker 1: Rivers pulls down the high snout floats the ball outside
Speaker 1: of the Edzell caught Keenan Allen and it's good for
Speaker 1: a touchdown. That was Week three out in LA at
Speaker 1: Dignity Health Park, and that was Philip Rivers starting a
Speaker 1: touchdown to Keenan Allen against the Texans and it will
Speaker 1: be the one of the last ones that Rivers throws
Speaker 1: for the Chargers because of news that came out today.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to our final segment of Texas All Access
Speaker 1: from the Hunday Texans Radio studio, and we're gonna bounce
Speaker 1: around the NFL. And probably the biggest news of the
Speaker 1: day comes from the LA Chargers and Philip Rivers. It
Speaker 1: was a mutual agreement, if you will. The Elliott Chargers
Speaker 1: announced Monday that the team and Rivers have mutually agreed
Speaker 1: the quarterback will enter free agency and not return to
Speaker 1: the team in twenty twenty. General manager Tom to LESCo
Speaker 1: said in a statement and I quote, after stepping back
Speaker 1: a bit from last season, we reconnected with Philip and
Speaker 1: its representatives to look at how twenty nineteen played out,
Speaker 1: assess our future goals, evaluate the current state of the roster,
Speaker 1: and see if there was a path forward that made
Speaker 1: sense for both parties. To LESCo said later on he
Speaker 1: still felt like Rivers could play at a high level,
Speaker 1: but it was time to move on now. The timing
Speaker 1: of this depending on how you look at those kind
Speaker 1: of things. The Chargers will move into Sofi Stadium, the
Speaker 1: massive structure that is going on going up right now
Speaker 1: in Inglewood, and Chargers will share that with the Rams,
Speaker 1: but Philip Rivers will not be part of that building
Speaker 1: or that process. To see what the Charges will do
Speaker 1: in that building. I'm still curious to see how this
Speaker 1: plays out for the Chargers. That is, if La is anything, Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, it's a usc town, and then second
Speaker 1: is it's a Rams town. I guess whose house, Rams House.
Speaker 1: I know Houston Cougar is really upset when they heard that.
Speaker 1: Either way, to me, it strikes me as it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a RAMS building featuring the Chargers, if that makes sense,
Speaker 1: Like the Chargers are just gonna be that team that
Speaker 1: just kind of, you know, because Giant Stadium for a
Speaker 1: long time was Giant Stadium, and then there were the Jets,
Speaker 1: and I kind of have a feeling that's the way
Speaker 1: it's gonna be for the Chargers. So the Chargers need
Speaker 1: something is splash something I suppose and I'm not really
Speaker 1: If you listen to me for a long time, you
Speaker 1: know I'm not all about splashes. I'm just you know,
Speaker 1: you put the best team together. But this is a
Speaker 1: little bit of a unique situation. They've got plenty of
Speaker 1: splash players, Bosa Ingram Derwin, James Keen Allen. They won't
Speaker 1: have Melvin Gordon. I don't imagine nless they're able to
Speaker 1: sign him, and I don't know how that's gonna happen,
Speaker 1: but they have an opportunity. I don't think they're going
Speaker 1: to and but they we've got no quarterback now relatively speaking.
Speaker 1: Trod Taylor is on the roster, but he is a
Speaker 1: good solid backup if anything else. Now, the Chargers pick six,
Speaker 1: and that is prime quarterback territory. Remember last year New
Speaker 1: York Giants ended up taking Daniel Jones at number six,
Speaker 1: which me and a lot of other people thought it
Speaker 1: was a little bit high for Daniel Jones. I think
Speaker 1: they could have taken him at the seventeenth pick and
Speaker 1: still got him. But then again, and I said some time,
Speaker 1: if you know that your guy, just go get him.
Speaker 1: And they felt like they had their guy in Daniel Jones,
Speaker 1: you go get him. Justice Herbert to a tongue of
Speaker 1: by law, be very interesting at pick number six for
Speaker 1: the snegog Ah find me the La Chargers. I've been
Speaker 1: really good about that. I've been really good about that,
Speaker 1: not saying San Diego and I just did it. But
Speaker 1: they will need a quarterback. They will, I would imagine
Speaker 1: with the ones we talked about in the first couple
Speaker 1: of seconds with Mark Tom Brady is gonna be I
Speaker 1: would imagine in the mix of the Chargers. Oh, here's
Speaker 1: a wild one. If the Raiders end up going and
Speaker 1: doing something with their quarterback position, and that means Derek
Speaker 1: Carr could be available. And it's crazy thought, but maybe
Speaker 1: that's something that the Chargers would entertain. You obviously know
Speaker 1: Philip is not going to be that guy. So it's
Speaker 1: Tom Brady. I know they haven't put all their eggs
Speaker 1: in one basket. And it makes me think back the
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen here in Houston. If you remember that, it's
Speaker 1: hard to think about anything before to sean to be honest,
Speaker 1: but there was a lot of talk about what Tony
Speaker 1: Romo coming to the Texans. Tony Romo is the piece
Speaker 1: we had just come off that divisional playoff round. There's
Speaker 1: a number one defense in the league. We had Whitney
Speaker 1: and I'm sorry we had what coming back in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1: We were gonna be strong, like, all right, let's do
Speaker 1: this Tony Romo, he's the man, Let's make this happen.
Speaker 1: And then Tony says, not only am I not playing football,
Speaker 1: I'm going into broadcast booth. Okay, so what do we
Speaker 1: do now? And then the Texas trade up went and
Speaker 1: got to Shawn Watson and there you go. Maybe that's
Speaker 1: the case for this Tom Brady thing. I think Tom's
Speaker 1: gonna play though, but putting on your eggs in the basket,
Speaker 1: if you did Chargers, then going, oh, we didn't get
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, what do we do? And I dropped the
Speaker 1: quarterback sitting at six, and of course it depends on
Speaker 1: how Combine plays up Pro Day all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think sometimes a little bit is
Speaker 1: made a little bit too much is made in that.
Speaker 1: I think the Bengals know that Joe Burrow is gonna
Speaker 1: be there guy at one. The Redskins over the quarterback
Speaker 1: last year, it doesn't reclude them from drafting quarterback, especially
Speaker 1: when there's been different changes. As Mark noted earlier in
Speaker 1: the front office Brass, but you would expect that Chase
Speaker 1: Young would go to put Chase Young with Montes Sweat
Speaker 1: and with the Alabama guys that have been there forever.
Speaker 1: It feels like Dron Payne, etc. You got a little
Speaker 1: something on the defensive side of the ball. Plus you
Speaker 1: give Dayne Haskins a little bit more opportunity to be
Speaker 1: the guy there in Washington. And number three is Detroit,
Speaker 1: and to me, that's where the draft really begins. And
Speaker 1: at that point there will be two quarterbacks. So you're
Speaker 1: sitting there at six to the Chargers and you got
Speaker 1: to escape Detroit. If Detroit stays, then you've got the
Speaker 1: Giants at four not taking a quarterback and you got
Speaker 1: the Dolphins at five more than likely taking a quarterback.
Speaker 1: Can you survive pick number three or do you have
Speaker 1: to move up with the Lions to make sure that
Speaker 1: you get your choice a quarterback bea Justin Herbert to
Speaker 1: a tongue of Viola or I wouldn't think Jordan Love
Speaker 1: but that high. But I love Jordan Love. I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a fantastic quarterback in the Chargers. Might
Speaker 1: make some sense for him. Maybe you sit there and
Speaker 1: wait for Jordan Love to come to you had number six.
Speaker 1: I think that's probably a little bit of a stretch,
Speaker 1: but you just gotta keep your eye number three. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't imagine the Lions are drafting a quarterback with Matt
Speaker 1: Stafford coming back, but there are some people saying it could.
Speaker 1: It could happen. I don't think it will, but I
Speaker 1: think the Chargers are gonna end up going a quarterback.
Speaker 1: Speaking of draft eligible quarterbacks. Two A ton of Volo
Speaker 1: is a name that we have talked about for a
Speaker 1: while from the National Championship Game. Davin Bellamy and I've
Speaker 1: talked about this a bunch. When I bring up to
Speaker 1: his name, he just he wants to slug me, which
Speaker 1: I don't blame him. That's that's a hard one to
Speaker 1: try and get over because, as Davin says, you win
Speaker 1: a national championship, you got more eyeballs on you. You
Speaker 1: lose it, and well that's almost as if you didn't
Speaker 1: even get there. And two has that touchdown against them
Speaker 1: the second in twenty six he throws a devout Smith
Speaker 1: touchdown too, it becomes a legend in Alabama history. Well,
Speaker 1: this year he dealt as he did the previous year
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, dealt injuries, but this one was more significant.
Speaker 1: Against Mississippi State, he was dealing with ankle injury and
Speaker 1: he was trying to get out of the pocket, got
Speaker 1: tackled and ended up injuring his hip. Now, there was
Speaker 1: a worry at the time, back in our October, the
Speaker 1: late Octobe, early in November, that this was going to
Speaker 1: be a bo Jackson situation. Now it doesn't appear that's
Speaker 1: going to be the case. In fact, today it was
Speaker 1: reported that the Alabama quarterbacks three months CT scan. So
Speaker 1: three months so it's February, so January, December, November, yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: so early in November, his three months CT scan on
Speaker 1: his fractured hip was and I quote as positive as possible.
Speaker 1: It revealed a healed hip. The hip and its range
Speaker 1: of motion is good. But it will likely be another
Speaker 1: month before Tuah is cleared for football activities, as reported
Speaker 1: by Ian Rapaport. Now, because he dealt with the ankle,
Speaker 1: because he dealt with the hip, and some people are
Speaker 1: worried about exactly what is there. Thirty two teams are
Speaker 1: gonna have the opportunity to dive into the medicals, onto
Speaker 1: a tongue of by law and take a look at
Speaker 1: it themselves. But two weeks before the you know, people
Speaker 1: start arriving at the combine, including yours truly and our
Speaker 1: gang going to the combine to a has got some
Speaker 1: good news and that's a that's a good start. Now.
Speaker 1: When talking about that was on the Super Bowl, apparently
Speaker 1: he sounded confident in his future, said, you know what
Speaker 1: he's gonna be. He's gonna be better, He's gonna be
Speaker 1: healthier at the next level. But there will be a
Speaker 1: tag of whether he is actually injury prone or not.
Speaker 1: He is going to be a guy that I those
Speaker 1: just sound crazy and almost rather face Joe Burrow twice
Speaker 1: a year than I would to a tongue of Ioloa.
Speaker 1: It's just I don't and I don't want the Colts
Speaker 1: stand up with him at thirteen. I don't want the
Speaker 1: Colts with a quarterback. I want them to sort of
Speaker 1: kind of slog through without a quarterback at this particular moment.
Speaker 1: I'd like the Jaguars to continue on with Gardner Minshew
Speaker 1: if they'd like to, That's fine. Titans Ryan Tannehill, okay
Speaker 1: with that. You know, he played pretty well at the
Speaker 1: end of the year. I just don't want to face
Speaker 1: two twice a year, and the Colts are the one
Speaker 1: teams at thirteen and the sort of I sort of
Speaker 1: worry about now Jacksonville is sitting there at nine. But
Speaker 1: I just have this feeling that Jacksonville is gonna let
Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew do his thing, and that's probably a wise thing.
Speaker 1: You can start to see some belief happening in him,
Speaker 1: and there's obviously the well, you know, sixth rounder, Um,
Speaker 1: that was Tom Brady. What's happened? I would like to
Speaker 1: think two totally different situations, but we'll see if it
Speaker 1: actually is two different situations. Mitchell did some good things,
Speaker 1: but I think against us we showed that we had
Speaker 1: the right mix for how you stop him, and we
Speaker 1: had the right plan for you stop him. And when
Speaker 1: I thought about Gardner Mitschew, I thought about all these
Speaker 1: other teams struggling and stop him, like, well, we stopped
Speaker 1: him for most of the first game and then all
Speaker 1: of the second game, And I start thinking about how
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were always the team that could
Speaker 1: slow down Michael Vick no matter what. No matter what,
Speaker 1: Vic struggled against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers always. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's way it just for Gardner Minchew. Either way, how
Speaker 1: this all plays in together, I don't think two ends
Speaker 1: up in Jacksonville. That would be a little bit of
Speaker 1: a surprise. Then again, Dave Calledwell's back in charge, and
Speaker 1: he surprised everybody would pick number three and twenty fourteen
Speaker 1: taking Blake Bortles. So hopefully he's off the board by
Speaker 1: the time you get to Miami. Hopefully Justice Herbert's off
Speaker 1: the board by the time you get to the Chargers
Speaker 1: and five and six, And then Jacksonville takes a defensive
Speaker 1: linement that left the tangle with probably a guy like
Speaker 1: Derek Brown, and that's going to suck, as he's really good.
Speaker 1: I don't really want to deal with him, but that's
Speaker 1: the way this draft thing works. Tennessee. Last year drafted
Speaker 1: every good player I liked, I like. I love Jeffrey Simmons.
Speaker 1: He was number four, my Harris one hundred, maybe three.
Speaker 1: He went nineteen to the Titans. I loved aj Brown
Speaker 1: had him at thirty. I think I had him right
Speaker 1: in the early thirties. I think he went in the fifties,
Speaker 1: maybe in the second round, stud receiver Monny Hook or
Speaker 1: fourth round. I had to start for them because the
Speaker 1: injuries and safety loved him, I mean, just everybody they
Speaker 1: added to the mix. I'm like, oh man. So that's
Speaker 1: the way it goes to the draft. Jackson will find
Speaker 1: a good player at seven, but hopefully it is not
Speaker 1: a guy like to a tongua violo. All right, big
Speaker 1: thanks to Mark for jumping in on the show. Love
Speaker 1: getting back in the sat A free agency is gonna
Speaker 1: be coming up or the next couple of weeks. Combine
Speaker 1: is in a couple of weeks. So we've got all
Speaker 1: of that to look forward to. Where are the influential
Speaker 1: players in the NFL gonna go? Who are the Texans
Speaker 1: going to be interested in? Cannot wait to see how
Speaker 1: it unfolds over the next how many ever months until
Speaker 1: we get the training camp in July. I appreciate you
Speaker 1: guys listening thanks to my guys at Sports Radio six ten.
Speaker 1: We'll see you why everybody, and as always, go Texans.
