WEBVTT - 2020 offseason is underway 0:00:00.600 --> 0:00:02.759 Welcome aout everybody to do a Monday edition of Texans 0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:07.160 All Access from the Honday Texans Radio studio. John Harris 0:00:07.200 --> 0:00:10.800 alongside the Voice of the Texans Mark Van remark First 0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:14.520 of all, how was your weekend? Johnny was great. You know, 0:00:15.440 --> 0:00:17.759 we have a dog, so there's no wow. Yeah, we 0:00:17.800 --> 0:00:19.599 have a new dog. We talked about this about a 0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:21.200 week and a half old, so we spent time with 0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:23.480 the dog. It's weird to not have I know, there's 0:00:23.520 --> 0:00:25.840 the other league playing, and look, I watched the Rockets 0:00:25.880 --> 0:00:28.040 games and everything, and I know you feel the same way. 0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:31.320 It's just weird to not work a game on a Sunday. 0:00:31.360 --> 0:00:33.680 I'm not in that mode yet. Where wait a minute. 0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:35.680 I actually had two days off in a row this 0:00:35.760 --> 0:00:38.440 weekend and last week, and it didn't feel quite the 0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:40.879 same because the Super Bowl. I watched it in a 0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:44.040 very you know, I watched it as an entertainment commodity, 0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:46.040 but I also watched it in a worklike way to 0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:48.680 see how they handle it. And obviously we've played the 0:00:48.760 --> 0:00:52.479 Kansas City Chiefs and everything. This weekend was a free weekend. 0:00:52.560 --> 0:00:55.680 It's done. It was just weird and I don't feel 0:00:55.720 --> 0:00:57.360 I feel like wait, a minute, I'm getting away with 0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:00.120 something with two days off in a row. Something's I'm 0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:04.039 playing hookey. There's something not right with the universe. Anyway. 0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:06.080 It's a long off season, but a lot of exciting 0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:08.400 stuff will happen, and it is already starting to happen 0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:10.240 around the league, and I know it's going to affect 0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:12.040 the Texans in some way, shape or form. Yeah, we're 0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:15.520 gonna get into a second, but yeah, I was kind 0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:18.479 of the same way I actually planned. It was funny. 0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:20.240 I heard my wife on the phone. She was talking 0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:26.360 to somebody on Thursday, and I just hear say, yeah, well, 0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:28.960 you know, John is taking me down to Dalliston because 0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:31.800 you know, from like July through February, we just can't 0:01:31.840 --> 0:01:34.600 do anything because it's football season. I was like, yeah, 0:01:34.640 --> 0:01:38.600 that's it. That's about right. Does she accept this or 0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:42.520 does she grudgingly, okayrudgingly what she needs to talk to 0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:44.679 Missus van Gundi. Did I ever tell you about my 0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:47.840 wife's conversation with Jeff van Gundi's wife, No, Missus van Gundi, 0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:50.640 she said, Missus van Gundi gave my wife the best 0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:54.400 advice ever, which is, during the season, don't even think 0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:57.120 about him. Yeah, don't, don't, don't, don't mess with it. 0:01:57.160 --> 0:01:58.920 He won't be there for anything. If he is, it's 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:02.600 a bonus. Assume everything's off and he's always going to 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.640 be doing something with the sport. And she said, oh, 0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:08.400 it kind of opened her eyes to that. So but 0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:10.840 then when the sport is over, Yeah, as Bill and 0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:12.959 Bryan likes to say, it's re entry time. A honey 0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:16.680 do list the size of the Magna carta. And it's 0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:19.560 still not really accepted during the season. Believe me, it's 0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:21.360 still kind of a challenge. So we went down, we 0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:24.520 went down to Galveson, like way west of Galveston. Well, 0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:26.480 we like, there's a place way west that we like 0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:28.760 because it's away from all the hustle and bustle. And 0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:30.960 we just had a we had a good weekend, so 0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:32.720 it was it was good to get away. And of 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:34.360 course on the way home, I look over and I 0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:37.640 could just see this like no smile on a face. 0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:39.880 I'm like, what's wrong? Because I don't want to leave. 0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:43.120 It's hard to lead the beach, man, It is hard 0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:46.320 to leave the beach. It's really die down there, and 0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:48.560 they've you know, really done a lot of work to 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:51.600 it since, like, yeah, very much. So I'm very much 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:55.079 impressed with the people, the Bois and the is an 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:58.560 IBC Islanders by choice, and the Bois, the born on 0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:01.560 the island. Yeah, the porn on the people there there, 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:04.560 it's it. I well, we've got a different beating. We've 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:06.280 gone to beaches all over the place because my wife 0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:08.399 and I love going to the beach and you run 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:11.959 into the Bois like born on Yeah, they are there, 0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:15.200 And I always wonder what that life must have been like, 0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:18.840 like flip flops every day growing up? Yeah, just every 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.200 day growing up living. That's all you do, is you live. 0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:23.480 I don't know. Yeah, well, I mean it's not like 0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:26.120 you're out in the tropics. If you do, you are 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:29.480 part of society. You are. That's true. That downtown area though, 0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:31.960 I just I love it. It's gotten different feel to it. 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:35.000 We uh, we we went downtown. It's funny because we've 0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:38.000 we've always we go down there. We just hit the 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:40.640 sea wall at sixty first and just go right. We 0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:43.320 just go westown, so we don't really go downtown. And 0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:46.600 so my sister in law was actually in town. She 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:49.200 had a conference over in Nassa, and so she's like, well, 0:03:49.280 --> 0:03:51.640 Meta's over on the strand. We're like, all right, So 0:03:51.680 --> 0:03:54.160 we met over the strand and we're like, this is cool, 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:56.280 Like we had a real school. It was really really 0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:58.240 a lot of nooks and crannies. They're a lot of 0:03:58.280 --> 0:04:01.440 fun and uh and the sports history, you know, Galveston ball. 0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:03.280 It's funny because we were talking. We're down there for 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:05.600 a management retreat last week and we were talking to 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.240 a boi and he said he was just mentioning Barry White. 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:10.280 I said, look, I'm all about Barry White and Galveston 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:12.880 and all that, but you know, I'm talking about Mike 0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:15.520 Evans and I'm talking about Casey Hampton and people like that. 0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:18.320 So that's pretty cool. Yeah, it's very cool. Okay, So 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:22.080 Bill Barnwell of ESPN, it's a really neat thing that 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:26.400 he's put together, and with his ESPN people, it's very 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:29.760 very cool. So what he has put together, if you 0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:39.960 get a chance going to follow him, he has highlighted one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, 0:04:40.560 --> 0:04:45.359 eight is Rivers eight. So he's got eight players that 0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:49.000 are names that everybody knows, right, And so what he's 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:52.080 done is he's kind of made this like rolling, rolling 0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:53.720 thing where if you roll on the guy, all of 0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:55.680 a sudden you see him in a different jersey than 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:59.560 you're used to seeing. So he's got Cam Newton and 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.480 then oh no, he's got him in a Dolphins jersey. 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:07.000 Good and I'm like whoa. But then down below he 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:08.920 has three different options, so you can have it on 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:10.960 Cam Newton and then you can click one of the 0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:14.600 three options and he changes jersey. It's really cool. So 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:19.120 each guy has three different options that Bill is actually presenting. 0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:22.000 So this is all about presentation, but it's basically three 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:25.480 different options for these players and it's the needest thing. 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:28.560 So he went through and he's got these eight players. 0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:34.880 So I was rolling through and didn't expect much out 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.360 of there from the Texans, etc. And then he put 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:41.400 Chris Harris Junior on there. So here are the three 0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:46.719 options that he has determined for Chris Harris Jr. Thirty 0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:51.200 one year old cornerback with the Dever Broncos. Been with 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:54.280 the Broncos' entire career. Was undrafted free agent out of 0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:57.720 Kansas and a really good Kansas career, didn't run exceptionally 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:01.159 well to combine, didn't get drafted, went to Denver, has 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:05.120 been unbelievable in Denver has been fantastic. So here are 0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:08.280 the three options that Barnewell presents. You tell me if 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:12.039 these one of them being a Texans option. So let's 0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:16.400 see how it fairs. Number one. His first option is 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:20.640 the Kansas City Chiefs signed Chris Harris Junior to a 0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:23.320 four year, forty eight million dollars deal. I don't know 0:06:23.320 --> 0:06:25.120 where they're gonna find the money. I'm sure they have it, 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:28.320 but well they if they signed them a homes deal 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:30.719 like how I mean they've got and they've got other 0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:33.760 big contracts. I mean, Tyrn Matthews not cheap for them, 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:35.440 by the way, right, it's a fourteen million a year 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.120 or something like that. Yeah, on average, he's fourteen million years. Now, 0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:40.440 congratulations have won the super Bowl. But now you gotta 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:43.599 move forward. You gotta pay the credit card. Talk to 0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:45.680 the Rams. How that's going. They didn't win the super Bowl, 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:47.280 but they were in it and now they're really suffering. 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:49.080 Cap one. I want to get to that one too. Okay, 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:51.839 that's because that's an interesting one. And then his second 0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:57.000 option is Jets signing a four year, sixty two million 0:06:57.000 --> 0:07:01.159 dollars deal with the Jets. The Jets obviously could use it. Yeah, 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:04.360 third option him with Jamal Adams in that secondary the 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:06.560 funny thing, all right, go go to the third third option. 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:12.400 The Texans signed Chris Harris Junior to a four year, 0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:15.320 fifty six million dollars deal. Now here's what he said. 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:17.920 A year ago. The Texans signed form Brockers corner Bradley 0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:19.400 Roby to a one year deal to try to show 0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:21.640 up a thin quarterback group. Now they'll make a more 0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:25.000 substantial deal with Harris, who will start alongside Lonnie Johnson 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:28.000 Garyan Colley at twenty twenty. This contract should have would 0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:32.400 have two fully guaranteed seasons. Yeah, it's a thirty one 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:37.320 year old corner, right, four years, fifty six million dollars 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:39.960 with two years. What is your gut reaction to that? 0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:43.400 All right? So that's Bill Barnwell saying that. Yeah, I 0:07:43.440 --> 0:07:46.840 think you know. It's gonna be interesting, obviously to see 0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:50.120 how Bill O'Brien handles a full offseason, a free agency 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.760 with his hand on the trigger. And they do have 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:55.360 some money, but they have some big contracts they obviously 0:07:55.440 --> 0:07:58.560 want to take care of. And there's not a ton leftover, 0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:01.720 but there's money leftover. Uh I know, I'm not answering 0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:03.920 the question here. The funny thing is, I'm thinking, I 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:05.360 don't know if you want to go for a thirty 0:08:05.400 --> 0:08:07.320 one year old, no matter who it is. And then 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:08.960 I'm thinking, but I don't want to go in to 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:12.600 the chiefs whatever. But I don't want to go in 0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:15.240 to the chiefs. So what is that feeling I have 0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:17.720 about not wanting to see him in Kansas City? Like 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:19.960 I'm not sure he's gonna be a bust from here 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:23.280 on out. It's Chris Harris, right, you know, So you're thinking, well, 0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:26.400 is it worth it to go for the two years guaranteed? 0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:29.760 That's that's a tough decision. I'm not saying coin flip decision, 0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:32.160 but that's a tough decision. I don't want to either. 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:34.400 I don't want to even call it a luxury decision 0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:37.520 because I think that it does come into play how 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:40.520 you deal with Laramie Tunsel and or de Sean with 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:42.960 their big deals. And then you have to see what 0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:45.160 do I have left in the cookie jar to sign 0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:48.640 somebody like this? And I don't know how they feel 0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:51.200 about it. Do they feel like if we improve the 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:54.320 pass rush, certainly they're gonna add to the secondary. We 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.600 know this, but do we have to add at that 0:08:56.679 --> 0:09:00.160 top flight Rolls Royce free agent level or do we 0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:04.560 go with a little more conservative approach in free agency 0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:08.320 with the cornerback position or draft and take it from there. 0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:11.200 I don't know. I mean, they It's funny because Johnny, 0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:13.439 when you look at what happened against the Chiefs, you think, 0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:15.480 are they ever gonna be able to stop anybody again? 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:19.160 You know, the feeling the recency element comes into play 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.880 when you're evaluating these things. And then you look at Cheese. 0:09:21.920 --> 0:09:24.400 They did well against Tom Brady, and they did well 0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:26.640 against Rivers, and they did well against a lot of 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:29.600 these quarterbacks. So they actually did fairly well against Mahomes 0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:32.480 the first time they intercepted Winston four times. I know 0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:34.760 Winston does get picked off, but he was pretty hot 0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:38.520 going into that game and they derailed him. So they 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:40.640 did have some moments with the guys they had in 0:09:40.640 --> 0:09:45.680 the secondary. So I guess my answer is maybe with 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:48.600 Chris Harris Junior at that price tech. But remember this, 0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:52.120 I don't know what he wants, but the highest bidder 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:54.480 tends to win these things. I think for him, he's 0:09:54.520 --> 0:10:01.520 got a ring. He's thirty one. It's probably the last one, right, 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.199 So how important is that to him? If I were him, 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:07.120 I'm going for every dollar I can find. I think 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.199 he is gonna try and find every dollar he can 0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:13.160 find at the team that has an opportunity to win. Okay, 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:15.400 So he's not gonna go, well the Jets. The Jets 0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:18.160 don't make money, seemingly do not have an opportunity to win. 0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:21.079 Now if that's the only option he has, okay, Well, yeah, sure, 0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:22.680 I mean levi on Bell went there. But how many 0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:27.400 opportunities did he a? Right? Exactly exactly? So I don't 0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:30.120 know how I feel about that deal. I'd much rather 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:33.520 look at other opportunities. In fact, I would look at 0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:38.080 Byron Jones, okay of Dallas throwing that same money and 0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:40.000 see if he took it. I would I would look 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:42.160 at more Byron. I mean he's a he's a younger 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:46.280 guy by five six years. Did you see the right 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:48.800 up on Namdi this weekend? And you know Namdi the 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:52.920 actor and no Nambie the actor. Yeah, Nambie the actor. 0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:55.160 I'll pull it up for you. But but the point 0:10:55.240 --> 0:11:00.560 is this, it revisited that whole free agent blitz of 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:02.200 it because he had the lockout, he had like a 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:05.360 two day frenzy. I mean it was that was nuts. 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:07.440 It was really good. That was it was really good. 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:10.160 It was was really it was nuts. But you're right, 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:11.960 it was really cool to do it all in a 0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:15.160 couple of days. Like this is awesome now I know. 0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:17.520 And having talked to players and we talked to JJO 0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:21.439 about this, right, how nervous are you getting You're a 0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:24.680 free agent? Like, how nervous are you getting right about now? 0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:28.480 Like make a deal already? Yeah, do something? Um okay. 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:30.719 So that was Chris Harris Jr. Now the Texans are 0:11:30.760 --> 0:11:34.319 mentioned with one other player on this group of eight. 0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:38.400 The ocho is Well I would call it, and it's 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:44.200 a running back. Can I interest you in a Melvin Gordon? 0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:49.400 Barnwell says, and I I look at this and I'm like, 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:53.679 I don't think there is a chance in haities of 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:56.920 this happening. But he says he's got three options from 0:11:56.920 --> 0:12:01.199 Melvin Gordon. Number one is the Bucks sign a four year, 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:05.280 thirty six million dollars deal with the Bucks. Then he's 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:07.520 got the Redskins, which I don't see the Redskins doing it. 0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:11.040 They got Darius geiss I don't. I mean, but guys 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:12.960 size trouble staying help. It's got to be a team 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:16.640 that wants to win now or very soon. He's twenty 0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:19.880 six years old, he says, Gordon held out for a 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:22.200 new contract. They didn't get it. Now he's a free agent. Well, 0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:23.920 a team pony up to pay the twenty six year 0:12:23.920 --> 0:12:26.560 old running back. So he said twenty six years old 0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:30.040 with meaning? Is that meaning like he's still got some Yeah, 0:12:30.080 --> 0:12:33.079 he's a young man. And then the Texans is the 0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:37.880 third option. How would this taste? What is this? The 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:43.880 Texans sign Melvin Gordon to a five year, fifty million dollars. No, 0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:46.240 it's not happening. I don't think it's happen. He's not 0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:48.280 paying that money for a running back. You know, he's 0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:50.440 not going to do that. I don't think us now 0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:54.000 Gordon at the top of his game is great. Maybe 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:56.560 get right back to the top of his game. You know, 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:59.520 holdouts and things like that, they're just so bad for everybody, 0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:01.800 especially running backs. I think, Oh, by the way, quick 0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:06.599 cleaning something up here. Namdi limited run play on Broadway. 0:13:06.920 --> 0:13:10.840 It's called a Soldier's Play and it closes on March fifteenth, 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:13.440 So it was I guess designed to be a limited 0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:17.240 run play. David alec Grier him, isn't it? Who's also in? Um? 0:13:17.280 --> 0:13:19.640 You know? I know him best for Boomerang? Yeah, of 0:13:19.720 --> 0:13:23.440 course Boomerang. Everybody, everybody for Boomerang. Yes, John Winerspoon. They 0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:27.160 showed John Winerspoon. Oh and the on the montage. That's 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:29.960 my favorite part of the Oscars, The dead people. You know, 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:31.760 I love the dead People's segment. I love the Dead 0:13:31.760 --> 0:13:34.560 People's segment at the Grammys, the Emmys and the Oscars. 0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:36.920 They forgot somebody though, who they forgot last night. They 0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:41.319 forgot Luke Perry, Dylan from all. They forgot Luke pays 0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:44.000 in a movie called Eight Seconds of This Bull Riding. 0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:45.720 He's in a few other movies, and he was just 0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:47.480 in a Hallmark movie. My wife was watching the other 0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:49.280 day and I got really sat walked in. It was like, 0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:54.120 that's Luke Perry. Yeah past the sps do it two 0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:57.040 now really well? And I just love the dead People's segment. 0:13:57.320 --> 0:13:59.720 They should just call it the dead people. I mean, 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:03.360 I'm I'm being disrespectful they I know, I know I 0:14:03.400 --> 0:14:05.640 like it. And they finished of course with us you 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:08.319 know what I love And I know John's like rolling 0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:10.079 his eyes right now. You're not, but I bet you 0:14:10.160 --> 0:14:13.560 are internally because at a at a meeting, at one 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:15.560 of our department meetings, I brought up the Dead People's 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:18.840 segment once and I said, I love seeing like the 0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:21.920 guys who who passed away, who you never heard of, 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:24.880 like a sound effects editor who worked But they'll show 0:14:24.880 --> 0:14:27.120 a little mini clip on the movie ben Her, you 0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:29.040 know he worked on this. I think I miked up 0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:31.760 the Chariots and ben Her or whatever. No, it was 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:35.120 a serious job. Charlton Hestad and ben Hart was a 0:14:35.160 --> 0:14:38.000 huge production. Like nobody knows who this guy is, but 0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:41.040 now he's no longer with us. This shows you appreciate 0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:45.280 life while it's here. Get every ounce of the marrow 0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:48.160 out of life, because it's gonna go. At some point. 0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:50.240 Everyone's gonna forget. No one's gonna know that you miked 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.000 up the Chariots and been Her until they recognize you 0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:55.560 at the Oscars or first you can play an iconic 0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:59.720 figure like Dylan McKay I'm and they'll forget about you. 0:15:00.280 --> 0:15:03.640 I will be honest. I like that segment too. I 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:05.640 like that segment too. It's my favorite. They started to 0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:08.680 stay up for it. I didn't care who cares? I 0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:12.800 didn't know. I mean I Joaquin Phoenix, I see Joker. 0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:14.920 I didn't see it. I haven't seen it. I don't 0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:17.520 know that it's very I don't know it looks really 0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:19.440 really into. I don't even have a desire to see it. 0:15:19.440 --> 0:15:21.040 I don't have a desire to see it. I don't know. 0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:23.760 Like I was gonna say, why do we glamorize bad guys? 0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:26.360 But I'm into good Fellows and the Godfather, and that's 0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:29.960 glamorizing bad guys. So what? And the Irishman got nominated? Yeah, 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:32.400 but for some reason, I don't know. I just don't 0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:35.800 don't need to see the darkness that is the Joker. Yeah, 0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:38.520 I thought he'd ledger even had some comic relief there. 0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:40.440 I don't. Maybe I can't judge the movie. I haven't 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:42.880 seen it, so maybe so good and I haven't. I 0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:45.320 haven't seen Join Po. I know Joaquin Phoenix has played 0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:49.480 some amazing characters. He's a great Johnny Cash he didn't 0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:52.960 so well. I had no when he played Johnny Cash 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:56.160 and he sang the songs, I mean, Jamie Fox did 0:15:56.400 --> 0:15:59.960 Ray Charles Ryan. They overdubbed the songs the the original version. 0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:04.640 I could not believe that Joaquin Phoenix pulled off Johnny Cash, 0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:09.440 and with Johnny Cash's iconic, unique voice, he still pulled 0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:12.640 it off. But his speech was kind of all over 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:15.360 the place. He had a couple of moments, yea rene 0:16:15.960 --> 0:16:19.400 speech like where I'm like, why are we talking about cows? 0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:23.320 And I think I understand why we were, why he 0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:25.440 brought it up, but like, just just thank the people 0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:27.120 worked on the movie, right, That's all you gotta do. 0:16:27.280 --> 0:16:29.480 That's all you gotta do is thank the people that 0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:32.440 mike you up every single day. That's it. All right, Well, 0:16:32.480 --> 0:16:34.360 we gotta get back on track and we will do that. 0:16:34.640 --> 0:16:38.680 Next discuss more of these free agents and how it 0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:41.640 impacts the Texas and AFC South. Next right here on 0:16:41.720 --> 0:16:44.240 Texas All Axis. Welcome back to m on edition of 0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:47.320 Texas All Axis from the Honday Texans Radio Studio. I'm 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:51.360 your host, John Harris alongside Mark vander Meer. And somehow, 0:16:52.160 --> 0:16:56.720 some way we got on the oscars and the Dead 0:16:56.880 --> 0:17:00.840 People's segment. I don't know how we did it, but 0:17:01.160 --> 0:17:03.800 we found a way to do just that. That's called 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:07.480 a tangent. Ladies and gentlemen, we do that often. We 0:17:07.480 --> 0:17:10.400 were talking about in article that Bill Barnewell put out 0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:14.199 with some tremendous presentation that allows you to kind of 0:17:14.240 --> 0:17:19.520 swipe less, swipe right, change teams for eight very influential 0:17:19.600 --> 0:17:24.000 NFL players heading into this offseason. And I'll start with 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:27.480 one that was often rumored to come to the Texans 0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:30.080 because he was holding out because of some things that 0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:34.000 were happening in Washington, and that was Trent Williams. Oh, 0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:37.719 he has him coming here as a let me, let 0:17:37.800 --> 0:17:42.760 me he has three AFC teams, all right. The Cleveland 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:46.120 Browns trade a second round pick for Trent Williams. The 0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:50.879 Dolphins trade back our pick the twenty six pick for 0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:54.920 Trent Williams and a second round pick. And last, and 0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:58.399 certainly not least, Oh my god, Trent Williams ends up 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:02.400 with the Patriots. Oh, trade their top pick. The Patriots 0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:05.159 trade the top pick for Trent Williams and a second 0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:07.360 round pick. Let me ask you this, Johnny, I don't 0:18:07.359 --> 0:18:11.359 like if Tonsil. See we all assume the Tonsils straight 0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:13.720 up two number ones and Stills is a number two. 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:16.399 You know that trade was a package deal, so you know, 0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:18.439 how do you pull it apart? Break it up and 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:22.960 decide the value of things. Is tounsil worth the two ones? Look, 0:18:23.000 --> 0:18:25.000 it was two ones and a two basically with the 0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:30.159 other stuff for Tonsil and Stills and and two of 0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:32.520 the draft picks, right, So you have to look at 0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:34.960 it like, well, you gave them Davenport, you know, so 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:38.120 let's just remove the other gave the Dolphins. You gave 0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:40.159 the Dolphins players that were not they were not going 0:18:40.200 --> 0:18:42.800 to make your roster. No, in all likelihood death, they 0:18:42.800 --> 0:18:45.760 were not credit to him. He played, but they won 0:18:45.800 --> 0:18:47.600 some games with him. I think he started the game 0:18:47.640 --> 0:18:49.280 they when they beat the Patriots. I think you're right, 0:18:49.520 --> 0:18:52.159 so good for him. But the thing is this, Uh, 0:18:52.680 --> 0:18:55.960 I just I wonder what Williams is worth on the 0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:58.360 open market? Is it a one and a two? Does 0:18:58.400 --> 0:19:01.840 that sound about right? You for Trent Williams, who's older 0:19:01.840 --> 0:19:05.200 than Tonsil? Well there, I mean Bill Barnon will suggesting 0:19:05.240 --> 0:19:07.520 the Browns traded just a second round pick for him. 0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:10.320 I don't. I don't see that happening. Now. That's ah, 0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:12.000 we need to get rid of him. We gotta move 0:19:12.000 --> 0:19:14.959 on he you know whatever. I think maybe Washington does that, 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:17.359 or are they trying to make nice but are they 0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:19.320 trying to make nice with them? I Revere, I try 0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:22.040 and make nice with him, but I mean, Bruce Allen's 0:19:22.080 --> 0:19:25.160 moved on, right, so the Brett now Snider still there, 0:19:25.560 --> 0:19:29.560 but they've changed out brass and maybe it's possible. Helps 0:19:29.720 --> 0:19:32.040 you make nice with him and look, and maybe you 0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:34.879 pay him a little bit more money. Look, what helps 0:19:35.000 --> 0:19:39.159 every situation? What helps every situation? Yeah, lots of it. 0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:40.680 You can sit on a talk with guys all you 0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:43.360 want him and we look, we really love you. Yeah, yeah, 0:19:43.440 --> 0:19:45.720 it's fine, it's fine. Hey, we'd like to redo your 0:19:45.720 --> 0:19:47.239 contract and we'd like to give you a little bit 0:19:47.240 --> 0:19:50.480 more money. Up run Where did I sign? Yeah? It definitely, Yeah, 0:19:50.600 --> 0:19:53.720 that's simple, but it can be. It's it's like putting 0:19:53.720 --> 0:19:56.479 back teen in the wound, right. It really a numbing 0:19:56.520 --> 0:20:00.240 agent as well. It does soothe. Now if I'm roun vera, 0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:02.199 I'm trying to do that, and I'm also living in 0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:05.360 an NFC East. That's not like automatically winnable, but it 0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:08.800 kind of is if you there's opportunity there. I don't 0:20:08.800 --> 0:20:10.679 know about the quarterback situation. I don't know how they 0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:13.040 feel about Haskins. They can say whatever they want right now, 0:20:13.080 --> 0:20:16.040
