11
00:00:44,628 --> 00:00:46,508
Speaker 3: you're to fire on all cylinders. And we have to

12
00:00:46,508 --> 00:00:48,508
Speaker 3: get to that because there's a lot of names, specifically

13
00:00:48,588 --> 00:00:51,148
Speaker 3: quarterbacks that we want to talk to. Ian Rapaport, our

14
00:00:51,268 --> 00:00:54,348
Speaker 3: NFL network insider, you've been all over He's on the

15
00:00:54,348 --> 00:00:56,948
Speaker 3: phone with somebody right now. So we're just gonna pause.

16
00:00:57,188 --> 00:00:59,548
Speaker 3: We are going to talk Josh Allen. First, Ian, all right,

17
00:00:59,628 --> 00:01:00,508
Speaker 3: rap sheet, what's going on?

18
00:01:00,628 --> 00:01:01,228
Speaker 4: Sorry about that?

19
00:01:01,228 --> 00:01:02,028
Speaker 3: That's all good to happen.

20
00:01:02,068 --> 00:01:04,068
Speaker 5: Yeah, let's talk about Josh Allen. Sorry, it's a time

21
00:01:04,108 --> 00:01:05,508
Speaker 5: of calls and dodging.

22
00:01:05,628 --> 00:01:06,388
Speaker 6: It's you have to do.

23
00:01:06,748 --> 00:01:07,908
Speaker 3: Just let me know and I'll pick you up.

24
00:01:08,788 --> 00:01:09,428
Speaker 6: Now, I'll let you know.

25
00:01:09,508 --> 00:01:11,308
Speaker 5: I'll let you know, all right, Josh Allen gets a

26
00:01:11,388 --> 00:01:15,468
Speaker 5: huge new deal. Reigning MVP gets paid just like in.

27
00:01:15,468 --> 00:01:16,148
Speaker 4: The Buffalo Bills.

28
00:01:16,188 --> 00:01:19,668
Speaker 5: Has been a lot of time this offseason, and really

29
00:01:19,668 --> 00:01:21,708
Speaker 5: the last week or so walking in some of their

30
00:01:21,828 --> 00:01:26,268
Speaker 5: key guys. Six years, three hundred and thirty million dollars

31
00:01:26,628 --> 00:01:29,788
Speaker 5: on his extension, two hundred and fifty million dollars guarantee,

32
00:01:29,788 --> 00:01:31,788
Speaker 5: which is a huge number, the largest number ever.

33
00:01:32,108 --> 00:01:33,908
Speaker 4: Generally. What you see is, you.

34
00:01:33,868 --> 00:01:36,628
Speaker 5: Know, quarterbacks do extensions. They tack on money kind of

35
00:01:36,668 --> 00:01:38,948
Speaker 5: at the end and extend a company. This is really

36
00:01:38,988 --> 00:01:40,908
Speaker 5: more like a new deal for Josh Allen, the kind

37
00:01:40,908 --> 00:01:45,308
Speaker 5: of contract that he absolutely deserves. Meanwhile, one quarterback who

38
00:01:45,508 --> 00:01:48,668
Speaker 5: wants a new contract wants a contract at all. Aaron Rodgers,

39
00:01:48,748 --> 00:01:50,548
Speaker 5: one of the top free agents available, is cerainly one

40
00:01:50,548 --> 00:01:52,988
Speaker 5: of the biggest name free agents available. We have known

41
00:01:53,068 --> 00:01:55,628
Speaker 5: for some time that the New York Giants have interest

42
00:01:55,668 --> 00:01:58,348
Speaker 5: in Aaron Rodgers. Those two have had a dialogue for

43
00:01:58,388 --> 00:02:01,908
Speaker 5: the last several days. It is certainly a strong option,

44
00:02:01,988 --> 00:02:04,228
Speaker 5: I would say, for the Giants, and we'll see where

45
00:02:04,228 --> 00:02:07,468
Speaker 5: the ends up going Now, the Pittsburgh Steelers are trying

46
00:02:07,468 --> 00:02:09,588
Speaker 5: to get Justin Field's done trying to get him to

47
00:02:09,668 --> 00:02:13,028
Speaker 5: remain their quarterback for next year. But if that does

48
00:02:13,108 --> 00:02:14,988
Speaker 5: not work out, if he goes somewhere else, like maybe

49
00:02:15,108 --> 00:02:16,588
Speaker 5: let's say the New York Jets, which would be a

50
00:02:16,588 --> 00:02:19,628
Speaker 5: possibility for him, then I would expect these Steelers to

51
00:02:19,668 --> 00:02:21,748
Speaker 5: have some interest in Aaron Rodgers. They've got interested in

52
00:02:21,788 --> 00:02:24,788
Speaker 5: a couple quarterbacks. Rogers would be one of them. A

53
00:02:24,828 --> 00:02:26,868
Speaker 5: lot of dominoes here are still to fall, a lot

54
00:02:26,868 --> 00:02:28,588
Speaker 5: of balls in the air, and this is basically the

55
00:02:28,668 --> 00:02:29,348
Speaker 5: quarterback road.

56
00:02:29,388 --> 00:02:30,748
Speaker 4: So once one spot gets a.

57
00:02:30,668 --> 00:02:34,068
Speaker 5: Little fought, another one gets a little more likely, and

58
00:02:34,068 --> 00:02:36,668
Speaker 5: we'll kind of move from there. But Aaron Rodgers firmly

59
00:02:36,788 --> 00:02:38,348
Speaker 5: in focus today, all.

60
00:02:38,308 --> 00:02:40,348
Speaker 3: Right, and thank you so much. Two years later, it's

61
00:02:40,388 --> 00:02:42,308
Speaker 3: a different colored green, but we're trying to figure out

62
00:02:42,308 --> 00:02:45,548
Speaker 3: where Aaron Rodgers is going to be quarterbacking next season. Peter,

63
00:02:45,668 --> 00:02:48,108
Speaker 3: what do you make of, specifically the juice between the

64
00:02:48,108 --> 00:02:50,868
Speaker 3: New York Giants and potentially Aaron Rodgers going there.

65
00:02:51,228 --> 00:02:53,708
Speaker 7: I think it's real. I think the Giants are very

66
00:02:53,708 --> 00:02:56,028
Speaker 7: interested in Aaron Rodgers. The question is Aaron Rodgers very

67
00:02:56,068 --> 00:02:57,588
Speaker 7: interested in the Giants? And if you're a Giants fan,

68
00:02:57,588 --> 00:02:58,868
Speaker 7: how do we end up here where all of a

69
00:02:58,868 --> 00:03:01,188
Speaker 7: sudden we're waiting on Aaron Rodgers Like this isn't what

70
00:03:01,228 --> 00:03:03,468
Speaker 7: the plan was. Truth of the matter is Rodgers might

71
00:03:03,508 --> 00:03:05,988
Speaker 7: have some different and suitors and he's taking his time.

72
00:03:06,028 --> 00:03:09,348
Speaker 7: It seems like where it might might have an answer today,

73
00:03:09,468 --> 00:03:10,508
Speaker 7: might have an answer tomorrow.

74
00:03:10,548 --> 00:03:12,068
Speaker 4: But they are going to be.

75
00:03:12,028 --> 00:03:14,428
Speaker 7: Teams that are calling, and they are calling at second

76
00:03:14,508 --> 00:03:18,308
Speaker 7: to hits twelve o'clock Eastern. I'm looking at the Pittsburgh

77
00:03:18,308 --> 00:03:22,028
Speaker 7: Steelers as a truly viable option for Aaron Rodgers. I

78
00:03:22,068 --> 00:03:25,108
Speaker 7: look at whether or not if you're Rogers, you'd rather

79
00:03:25,148 --> 00:03:28,228
Speaker 7: go to New York where it's Malik neighbors and a

80
00:03:28,308 --> 00:03:31,188
Speaker 7: young team and some town on the defensive end, or

81
00:03:31,228 --> 00:03:34,788
Speaker 7: the Pittsburgh Steelers, which goes to the playoffs every year

82
00:03:35,068 --> 00:03:37,228
Speaker 7: and it has an opportunity to get over the hump

83
00:03:37,268 --> 00:03:39,588
Speaker 7: if Rogers wants to be the placeholder there. Look, there's

84
00:03:39,588 --> 00:03:41,748
Speaker 7: a lot of different dominoes that have to fall. Ian

85
00:03:41,868 --> 00:03:43,308
Speaker 7: is going to be on it all morning, so will

86
00:03:43,348 --> 00:03:46,308
Speaker 7: Tom Pellisero, and I direct you to Mike Garafo. Those

87
00:03:46,348 --> 00:03:49,028
Speaker 7: three have been on it the entire last three weeks.

88
00:03:49,028 --> 00:03:51,828
Speaker 7: When it comes to all this stuff the dominoes are. Thus,

89
00:03:52,148 --> 00:03:54,268
Speaker 7: we're first going to have to find out I think

90
00:03:54,628 --> 00:03:57,388
Speaker 7: where Sam Darnold's going, and I think Donald is the

91
00:03:57,388 --> 00:03:59,908
Speaker 7: biggest domino left right now. Once we got the Stafford

92
00:03:59,948 --> 00:04:04,108
Speaker 7: situation out of the way, let's say Donald goes to Seattle,

93
00:04:04,668 --> 00:04:06,868
Speaker 7: let's go there, or let's say he.

94
00:04:06,868 --> 00:04:08,228
Speaker 4: Goes to Pittsburgh.

95
00:04:08,508 --> 00:04:11,948
Speaker 7: Well, that Justin Fields is the next domino. Where is

96
00:04:12,108 --> 00:04:14,548
Speaker 7: Justin Fields going to go? We know that there's interest

97
00:04:14,548 --> 00:04:16,628
Speaker 7: from the Steelers, of course to bring them back, but

98
00:04:16,748 --> 00:04:19,868
Speaker 7: we also know the New York Jets.

99
00:04:19,428 --> 00:04:21,228
Speaker 4: Are hot on Justin Fields.

100
00:04:21,828 --> 00:04:25,108
Speaker 7: Once we find out Darnald and Fields, amazingly enough, you

101
00:04:25,188 --> 00:04:28,708
Speaker 7: have two potential Hall of Fame quarterbacks, if not one

102
00:04:28,748 --> 00:04:31,228
Speaker 7: Hall of Fame quarterback and one Super Bowl winning quarterback,

103
00:04:31,508 --> 00:04:34,508
Speaker 7: Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson that I think have to

104
00:04:34,548 --> 00:04:35,988
Speaker 7: see where those two guys end.

105
00:04:35,948 --> 00:04:37,788
Speaker 4: Up, and then they can weigh their decisions.

106
00:04:38,028 --> 00:04:41,348
Speaker 7: I've got Rogers over Wilson on that little hierarchy there

107
00:04:41,348 --> 00:04:44,148
Speaker 7: of that tree. But let's look at it this way. Donald,

108
00:04:44,388 --> 00:04:48,268
Speaker 7: then Fields, then Rogers. As far as where we're going

109
00:04:48,348 --> 00:04:51,188
Speaker 7: to find out where these guys go, Aaron Rodgers suddenly

110
00:04:51,228 --> 00:04:53,308
Speaker 7: might have a bigger market than we thought forty eight

111
00:04:53,348 --> 00:04:56,108
Speaker 7: hours ago. If it's the Steelers, if it's the Seahawks,

112
00:04:56,268 --> 00:04:58,268
Speaker 7: and of course I mentioned the New York Giants.

113
00:04:58,508 --> 00:05:01,508
Speaker 8: Well, Peter, right, listen, going back a little ways, I

114
00:05:01,548 --> 00:05:04,468
Speaker 8: think if Matthew Stafford would have left the Rams, I

115
00:05:04,468 --> 00:05:06,348
Speaker 8: think Rogers is on the jet in ten seconds.

116
00:05:06,388 --> 00:05:07,948
Speaker 9: I think that it would have been a dream job.

117
00:05:07,988 --> 00:05:10,308
Speaker 8: And now, of course DeVante's there, so what are perfectly

118
00:05:10,548 --> 00:05:13,868
Speaker 8: didn't happen? Stafford stays. As far as the Giants, I'll

119
00:05:13,908 --> 00:05:16,188
Speaker 8: just put cards on the table. So about a week

120
00:05:16,228 --> 00:05:18,268
Speaker 8: and a half ago, when it was really popping everywhere

121
00:05:18,308 --> 00:05:22,068
Speaker 8: on social media, It's Friday afternoon, and candidly, I was

122
00:05:22,268 --> 00:05:24,268
Speaker 8: halfway through a Martin Yeah, and I'm all right, I'm

123
00:05:24,308 --> 00:05:25,588
Speaker 8: just reading this and reading this, and I'm like, so,

124
00:05:25,588 --> 00:05:27,588
Speaker 8: I'm just gonna text Rogers every once in a while.

125
00:05:27,588 --> 00:05:28,548
Speaker 4: He and like, hey, let's go.

126
00:05:28,628 --> 00:05:30,668
Speaker 6: We talked about it, and we texted about it. What

127
00:05:30,668 --> 00:05:32,148
Speaker 6: do you got? Well, that's the thing.

128
00:05:32,548 --> 00:05:33,988
Speaker 8: That's why I didn't bring it up the next day

129
00:05:33,988 --> 00:05:36,428
Speaker 8: because there's no headline. I'm not breaking news. Mostly we

130
00:05:36,548 --> 00:05:39,668
Speaker 8: texted just about silly stuff. But my takeaway from me

131
00:05:39,788 --> 00:05:41,828
Speaker 8: actually straight up asking him, like, so, what's the deal?

132
00:05:41,868 --> 00:05:43,548
Speaker 8: You want to know the Giants because we have an

133
00:05:43,548 --> 00:05:46,428
Speaker 8: old relationship, I'll just ask you. My takeaway was that

134
00:05:46,508 --> 00:05:49,628
Speaker 8: I don't think Rogers is running around shopping himself. I

135
00:05:49,708 --> 00:05:53,228
Speaker 8: don't think he's eager and hungry and ready and not

136
00:05:53,308 --> 00:05:56,028
Speaker 8: to join any other team if the situation is there, sure,

137
00:05:56,188 --> 00:05:59,028
Speaker 8: But like, I don't think he is dispatching his people.

138
00:05:59,188 --> 00:06:01,268
Speaker 8: I don't know if he has people. Honestly, I don't

139
00:06:01,268 --> 00:06:03,908
Speaker 8: think he's running people down. I think if it didn't

140
00:06:03,908 --> 00:06:06,908
Speaker 8: show up and there wasn't a perfect situation, he is

141
00:06:06,908 --> 00:06:10,468
Speaker 8: perfectly ready to say, twenty years, Cnohio, in five years,

142
00:06:10,508 --> 00:06:12,388
Speaker 8: I'm gonna go take my medicine in the jungle. Just

143
00:06:12,428 --> 00:06:14,868
Speaker 8: I think it is completely ready to do that. The

144
00:06:14,948 --> 00:06:17,988
Speaker 8: Giants thing for me personally has nothing to do with anything.

145
00:06:17,988 --> 00:06:19,868
Speaker 8: I just wri that Peter would be amused by that.

146
00:06:20,028 --> 00:06:21,548
Speaker 8: I don't want to see him go to the Giants,

147
00:06:21,628 --> 00:06:23,148
Speaker 8: And I've said this already. I'm ready for him to

148
00:06:23,188 --> 00:06:26,308
Speaker 8: be done because there's a factor of don's don't wear

149
00:06:26,388 --> 00:06:30,428
Speaker 8: shorts like the Greats, don't team chase, they don't bounce

150
00:06:30,468 --> 00:06:33,508
Speaker 8: around at the end of their careers. It's unbecoming. It

151
00:06:33,988 --> 00:06:35,908
Speaker 8: doesn't end well, and I know you want to land

152
00:06:35,908 --> 00:06:38,588
Speaker 8: the plane on this thing. The last ten Hall of

153
00:06:38,628 --> 00:06:41,908
Speaker 8: Fame quarterbacks. You look at the list, they're not on

154
00:06:41,948 --> 00:06:44,708
Speaker 8: some fourth team. I would even throw Breeze and Brady

155
00:06:44,708 --> 00:06:47,788
Speaker 8: in there yet. Manny no Warner, no Farv, no Aikman,

156
00:06:47,868 --> 00:06:50,348
Speaker 8: no Kelly, no Young, no Warren Moon. Yes, but he

157
00:06:50,348 --> 00:06:51,748
Speaker 8: played a lot of ears in Edmonton, was on a

158
00:06:51,748 --> 00:06:55,828
Speaker 8: different path. Marino, no Montana, no Aaron Rodgers. My opinion,

159
00:06:55,828 --> 00:06:58,268
Speaker 8: the best quarterback to ever play the game is like, Yeah,

160
00:06:58,308 --> 00:07:00,188
Speaker 8: maybe I gonna work something out at the Giants because

161
00:07:00,188 --> 00:07:02,428
Speaker 8: I have a house there and Dable sounds cool.

162
00:07:02,388 --> 00:07:05,068
Speaker 9: Even though they haven't won anything in over decade.

163
00:07:05,108 --> 00:07:07,668
Speaker 8: And maybe I can make it work with Malik Neighbors,

164
00:07:07,708 --> 00:07:09,908
Speaker 8: who is a nice player, but it's not Jerry Rice.

165
00:07:10,388 --> 00:07:12,428
Speaker 6: I don't know. I just as a fan, as an.

166
00:07:12,428 --> 00:07:17,428
Speaker 8: Enthusiast joining the Giants after the Jets, I don't want

167
00:07:17,468 --> 00:07:17,828
Speaker 8: to see it.

168
00:07:17,828 --> 00:07:19,268
Speaker 6: As a fan, and as someone who.

169
00:07:19,308 --> 00:07:21,988
Speaker 8: Just kind of follows the league, I still don't anticipate

170
00:07:21,988 --> 00:07:24,068
Speaker 8: seeing I think the Rams thing would happen in a second.

171
00:07:24,588 --> 00:07:26,828
Speaker 8: I don't think he's going to join the Giants. If

172
00:07:26,828 --> 00:07:28,468
Speaker 8: he does, I'll stand up in applaud and I hope

173
00:07:28,468 --> 00:07:29,708
Speaker 8: they win because they root for Dable.

174
00:07:29,828 --> 00:07:30,748
Speaker 9: So don't think it's gonna.

175
00:07:30,548 --> 00:07:31,548
Speaker 4: Have Steelers do anything for you.

176
00:07:31,828 --> 00:07:34,388
Speaker 8: Yes, more because if he goes to the Steelers, he'll

177
00:07:34,428 --> 00:07:36,308
Speaker 8: be in the playoffs. The Steelers go to the playoffs.

178
00:07:36,388 --> 00:07:38,788
Speaker 8: We know that, so there's almost no doubt about it.

179
00:07:38,828 --> 00:07:41,068
Speaker 8: And they just loaded up with weapons. So Peter, it's

180
00:07:41,108 --> 00:07:42,788
Speaker 8: a perfect follow the Steelers.

181
00:07:43,148 --> 00:07:44,988
Speaker 9: Yes, we know the relationship with Tomlin.

182
00:07:44,988 --> 00:07:46,948
Speaker 8: They're always kind of winking at each other and smiling

183
00:07:46,988 --> 00:07:48,948
Speaker 8: in the games. They have the rob receivers, they have

184
00:07:48,948 --> 00:07:51,388
Speaker 8: the defense all at Steelers. Yes, because then you could

185
00:07:51,388 --> 00:07:54,868
Speaker 8: actually make something of it. But anything beyond that, it's

186
00:07:54,908 --> 00:07:57,628
Speaker 8: just it seems like you're, I don't know, shack on

187
00:07:57,668 --> 00:07:59,668
Speaker 8: the Suns or shack on the Calves or shack on

188
00:07:59,708 --> 00:08:00,388
Speaker 8: the Celtics.

189
00:08:00,588 --> 00:08:01,348
Speaker 6: I just don't like it.

190
00:08:01,388 --> 00:08:02,788
Speaker 7: And if you want to look behind the curt a

191
00:08:02,828 --> 00:08:04,468
Speaker 7: little bit of the dark arts, a lot of the

192
00:08:04,468 --> 00:08:07,508
Speaker 7: Steelers Rogers stuff has happened this morning, and that's coming

193
00:08:07,508 --> 00:08:09,028
Speaker 7: out a lot more and more, and you're gonna hear

194
00:08:09,068 --> 00:08:11,988
Speaker 7: that more. A lot of that I think could be real,

195
00:08:12,108 --> 00:08:14,548
Speaker 7: A lot of that could be coming from people in

196
00:08:14,548 --> 00:08:17,428
Speaker 7: Pittsburgh to Justin Fields as folks saying hey, we have

197
00:08:17,468 --> 00:08:19,388
Speaker 7: other options too, like we can move on.

198
00:08:19,668 --> 00:08:20,948
Speaker 4: It's all about how.

199
00:08:20,828 --> 00:08:23,708
Speaker 7: The media is being manipulated, but also what the agents

200
00:08:23,708 --> 00:08:26,348
Speaker 7: are saying, what the teams are saying. That's the beauty

201
00:08:26,348 --> 00:08:28,508
Speaker 7: of free agent frenzy. We came into this morning and

202
00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:30,748
Speaker 7: it's like, all right, let's do what happened now. Suddenly

203
00:08:30,748 --> 00:08:33,468
Speaker 7: there's a discussion of Aaron Rodgers might have a choice,

204
00:08:33,508 --> 00:08:36,308
Speaker 7: but also Justin Fields might have to make a decision

205
00:08:36,348 --> 00:08:39,508
Speaker 7: because hey, if you don't pick Pittsburgh, we've got another option,

206
00:08:39,588 --> 00:08:41,148
Speaker 7: and maybe Rogers is our guy instead.

207
00:08:41,268 --> 00:08:44,468
Speaker 10: For Neighbors and Tracy, I'd be excited, right, But as

208
00:08:44,508 --> 00:08:47,268
Speaker 10: far as the Giants and what their future holds, and

209
00:08:47,748 --> 00:08:51,348
Speaker 10: especially for Aaron Rodgers, he holds all the cards this benefits.

210
00:08:51,348 --> 00:08:53,388
Speaker 10: If you went there, it would benefit the Giants much

211
00:08:53,388 --> 00:08:56,308
Speaker 10: more than it would benefit Aaron Rodgers. Milik Neighbors would

212
00:08:56,388 --> 00:08:59,588
Speaker 10: have his career kick started to heights that we haven't

213
00:08:59,588 --> 00:09:03,588
Speaker 10: already seen. And Tyron Tracy, who's just a flower waiting

214
00:09:03,908 --> 00:09:05,748
Speaker 10: to bloom the right quarterback would be great. But other

215
00:09:05,788 --> 00:09:08,148
Speaker 10: than that, what do we really get out of this situation?

216
00:09:08,268 --> 00:09:10,388
Speaker 10: So Kyle, I'm right there with you. And if Aaron

217
00:09:10,428 --> 00:09:13,468
Speaker 10: does want to continue to play, I am excited for

218
00:09:13,628 --> 00:09:16,828
Speaker 10: him to start fresh offensively from a schematic standpoint.

219
00:09:16,948 --> 00:09:18,788
Speaker 6: When he was at the Packers, that was his team.

220
00:09:18,828 --> 00:09:20,828
Speaker 10: When he was in New York and the Jersey with

221
00:09:20,868 --> 00:09:23,708
Speaker 10: the Jets, it was still his guys in the offensive room,

222
00:09:23,908 --> 00:09:24,988
Speaker 10: so it was his offense.

223
00:09:25,188 --> 00:09:26,948
Speaker 6: It's outdated and it's time to change.

224
00:09:26,948 --> 00:09:28,868
Speaker 10: If he went to the Giants, I would hope he

225
00:09:28,868 --> 00:09:32,388
Speaker 10: would respectable enough to say, Okay, guys are figuring.

226
00:09:32,068 --> 00:09:32,708
Speaker 6: Out what I do.

227
00:09:32,948 --> 00:09:34,988
Speaker 10: I can't just line up in two by two and

228
00:09:35,028 --> 00:09:36,868
Speaker 10: dictate everything at the line of scrim It just time

229
00:09:36,908 --> 00:09:37,868
Speaker 10: to update some things.

230
00:09:38,108 --> 00:09:39,028
Speaker 6: Dable what you.

231
00:09:39,028 --> 00:09:40,748
Speaker 10: Got for me, and I would be excited to see that.

232
00:09:40,828 --> 00:09:43,108
Speaker 10: But I'm really happy to hear that. Maybe there's a

233
00:09:43,148 --> 00:09:45,748
Speaker 10: situation where he says, I've done everything I need to do.

234
00:09:45,788 --> 00:09:47,708
Speaker 10: I got the ring, i got the jacket. I'm gonna

235
00:09:47,828 --> 00:09:49,908
Speaker 10: go geto my cabin in the mountains and live the

236
00:09:49,908 --> 00:09:51,268
Speaker 10: most peaceful life you've ever seen.

237
00:09:51,708 --> 00:09:53,948
Speaker 6: Wins all around for Aaron Rodgers. Quite honestly.

238
00:09:54,108 --> 00:09:57,028
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's fun to on free agency frenzy

239
00:09:57,108 --> 00:10:00,668
Speaker 3: day to watch everyone's facial expressions match up with certain players,

240
00:10:00,668 --> 00:10:02,388
Speaker 3: like some of you with a face like this, like

241
00:10:02,468 --> 00:10:05,108
Speaker 3: it just doesn't fit. And I get that you have

242
00:10:05,508 --> 00:10:08,068
Speaker 3: the way things that should be in your brain. Let's

243
00:10:08,068 --> 00:10:10,548
Speaker 3: look at the Pittsburgh Steelers really quick, because you guys

244
00:10:10,548 --> 00:10:14,148
Speaker 3: have all kind of tabbed. This continues and with DK

245
00:10:14,268 --> 00:10:17,188
Speaker 3: Metcalf involved to be a really good option. Now we

246
00:10:17,228 --> 00:10:19,548
Speaker 3: have Ian Rappaport saying that they really want to get

247
00:10:19,548 --> 00:10:22,228
Speaker 3: the Justin Fields deal done. But I would put everybody

248
00:10:22,228 --> 00:10:24,388
Speaker 3: on the spot, Peter Kyle, if they were the Pittsburgh

249
00:10:24,388 --> 00:10:27,948
Speaker 3: Steelers and you're making decisions here, would you rather Sam

250
00:10:28,028 --> 00:10:30,908
Speaker 3: Donald or Aaron Rodgers in that quarterback room?

251
00:10:31,268 --> 00:10:34,348
Speaker 7: Peter, you have to love Sam Donald because I don't

252
00:10:34,348 --> 00:10:36,548
Speaker 7: think Sam Donald, you're signing for a one year, two

253
00:10:36,628 --> 00:10:38,388
Speaker 7: year deal. You're going to give him that big monster

254
00:10:38,508 --> 00:10:40,428
Speaker 7: deal and you're gonna give him that Justin Fields deal.

255
00:10:40,628 --> 00:10:43,468
Speaker 7: Aaron Rodgers probably is a shorter term deal, and that's

256
00:10:43,508 --> 00:10:45,148
Speaker 7: a hey, we think we can win right now. If

257
00:10:45,188 --> 00:10:47,228
Speaker 7: I'm a Steelers fan, I don't know what I want

258
00:10:47,228 --> 00:10:51,348
Speaker 7: if it's option A Justin Fields B Sam Donald, see

259
00:10:51,388 --> 00:10:54,308
Speaker 7: Aaron Rodgers. Look, Justin Fields was good at four and

260
00:10:54,428 --> 00:10:57,308
Speaker 7: one last year and they benched him because they knew

261
00:10:57,308 --> 00:10:59,468
Speaker 7: that Russell Wilson gave him a better shot. So suddenly,

262
00:10:59,508 --> 00:11:01,308
Speaker 7: now if I'm a Steelers fan after you the same

263
00:11:01,348 --> 00:11:04,668
Speaker 7: coaching staff benched Justin Fields a year ago, to be

264
00:11:04,708 --> 00:11:07,268
Speaker 7: doing flips over the fact that, Wow, we got Justin Fields.

265
00:11:07,828 --> 00:11:08,588
Speaker 4: It's really a.

266
00:11:08,548 --> 00:11:11,148
Speaker 7: Good paradox to have when there's these three different names.

267
00:11:11,148 --> 00:11:14,548
Speaker 7: But it's also this untenable situation because none of these

268
00:11:14,548 --> 00:11:16,468
Speaker 7: guys guarantee we get any further than we did last

269
00:11:16,508 --> 00:11:17,428
Speaker 7: year with Russell Wilson.

270
00:11:17,468 --> 00:11:20,028
Speaker 8: Once they signed DK metcalf I was away from Justin

271
00:11:20,068 --> 00:11:23,108
Speaker 8: Fields for the Steelers, it's just you're gonna have two

272
00:11:23,188 --> 00:11:25,908
Speaker 8: huge personality, huge talent. Never mind the person night wide

273
00:11:25,948 --> 00:11:28,668
Speaker 8: receivers Justin Fields for all he's worth, and there's worth

274
00:11:28,668 --> 00:11:31,028
Speaker 8: a lot, I don't think that's the guy to spread

275
00:11:31,108 --> 00:11:33,868
Speaker 8: the ball around and take all these deep shots and air.

276
00:11:33,708 --> 00:11:34,788
Speaker 9: It out like they're gonna do.

277
00:11:35,068 --> 00:11:36,908
Speaker 8: If anything, I would rather have Russell Wilson and Justin

278
00:11:36,948 --> 00:11:38,588
Speaker 8: Fields if we're gonna do that, just because he knew

279
00:11:38,628 --> 00:11:39,548
Speaker 8: he throws the deep ball.

280
00:11:39,588 --> 00:11:39,828
Speaker 6: Well.

281
00:11:39,948 --> 00:11:42,508
Speaker 8: To answer your question, Jamie Donald to Rodgers, it's a

282
00:11:42,548 --> 00:11:46,788
Speaker 8: really really tricky question. I think it would probably be Donald.

283
00:11:47,188 --> 00:11:50,148
Speaker 8: I just I watched fantastic football with great wide receivers

284
00:11:50,228 --> 00:11:52,548
Speaker 8: last year, albeit in a totally different situation with different

285
00:11:52,548 --> 00:11:53,388
Speaker 8: coach in a dome.

286
00:11:53,788 --> 00:11:54,868
Speaker 9: It's a coin flip, though.

287
00:11:54,948 --> 00:11:56,708
Speaker 8: I just got done saying I don't want Rodgers to

288
00:11:56,708 --> 00:11:58,508
Speaker 8: play on a fourth team. I think he should be done,

289
00:11:58,668 --> 00:12:00,228
Speaker 8: So I'd have to say Donald.

290
00:12:00,588 --> 00:12:03,148
Speaker 10: Donald's short term Rogers has made a clear even if

291
00:12:03,148 --> 00:12:06,388
Speaker 10: he does continue to play one year, two year tops.

292
00:12:06,708 --> 00:12:08,908
Speaker 10: I feel Pittsburgh wants to build something, so I would

293
00:12:09,028 --> 00:12:13,468
Speaker 10: lean towards Sam Donald in that situation. The problem is,

294
00:12:13,788 --> 00:12:17,268
Speaker 10: we have more questions about this Pittsburgh offense than maybe

295
00:12:17,268 --> 00:12:20,828
Speaker 10: any other offense in the NFL. Arthur Smith, we don't

296
00:12:20,868 --> 00:12:22,508
Speaker 10: know what this offense looks like. By the end of

297
00:12:22,508 --> 00:12:24,628
Speaker 10: the season, it was run the ball on first down,

298
00:12:24,628 --> 00:12:26,668
Speaker 10: take a sack on second down, throw the ball to

299
00:12:27,068 --> 00:12:29,708
Speaker 10: hopefully George Biggins catches it on the third. I don't

300
00:12:29,708 --> 00:12:31,628
Speaker 10: know what this Arthur Smith offense is gonna look like,

301
00:12:31,708 --> 00:12:34,068
Speaker 10: and I don't know if either quarterback can really dictate that.

302
00:12:34,268 --> 00:12:35,268
Speaker 6: Yeah, I look.

303
00:12:35,148 --> 00:12:37,348
Speaker 7: At these teams and we're like, all right, Sam Donald

304
00:12:37,348 --> 00:12:40,748
Speaker 7: could go to Seattle, which makes sense, or now Pittsburgh

305
00:12:40,828 --> 00:12:43,508
Speaker 7: maybe or the Giants perhaps, but probably not the Giants.

306
00:12:43,508 --> 00:12:46,228
Speaker 7: And it's like, I can't stress us enough how damaging

307
00:12:46,308 --> 00:12:50,748
Speaker 7: for his financial wellbeing those eight days were for Sam Donald.

308
00:12:50,788 --> 00:12:52,828
Speaker 7: There should be a feeding frenzy for this guy based

309
00:12:52,868 --> 00:12:54,948
Speaker 7: on what he did last year. But when you play

310
00:12:54,988 --> 00:12:57,428
Speaker 7: the way you did against the Lions in Week eighteen

311
00:12:57,628 --> 00:13:01,148
Speaker 7: and then eight days later lay another egg against the

312
00:13:01,188 --> 00:13:04,828
Speaker 7: Cardinal against I'm sorry, against the Rams in air Zona.

313
00:13:05,188 --> 00:13:07,788
Speaker 4: Those were two of the worst games we've seen a quarterback.

314
00:13:07,388 --> 00:13:10,748
Speaker 7: Play, and it brought up ghosts no pun intended. When

315
00:13:10,788 --> 00:13:14,468
Speaker 7: we're talking Sam Donald. Of Sam Donald's worst days as

316
00:13:14,508 --> 00:13:16,668
Speaker 7: a New York Jet, worst days as a Carolina Panther,

317
00:13:17,268 --> 00:13:21,228
Speaker 7: I think he cost himself a lot of money because, honestly, Jamie,

318
00:13:21,308 --> 00:13:23,828
Speaker 7: I think the Tennessee Titans should be talking to Sam Donald.

319
00:13:23,828 --> 00:13:26,068
Speaker 7: If you're talking about a seventeen week season, I think

320
00:13:26,068 --> 00:13:28,428
Speaker 7: the Cleveland Browns should be banging down the door for

321
00:13:28,468 --> 00:13:30,868
Speaker 7: Sam Donald. We're talking about a seventeen week season. But

322
00:13:30,988 --> 00:13:34,868
Speaker 7: those eight days, it's really hard for quarterback people and

323
00:13:34,948 --> 00:13:37,308
Speaker 7: offensive coaches to look at those eight days and those

324
00:13:37,308 --> 00:13:40,188
Speaker 7: two performances in the clutch when it mattered most a

325
00:13:40,268 --> 00:13:43,388
Speaker 7: game that was indoors and another game that was indoors

326
00:13:43,708 --> 00:13:45,908
Speaker 7: and Sam Donald played horribly.

327
00:13:45,428 --> 00:13:46,588
Speaker 4: And this team lost.

328
00:13:47,348 --> 00:13:49,468
Speaker 7: I think it's really hard for these teams like the Titans,

329
00:13:49,508 --> 00:13:50,668
Speaker 7: they could say, well, we're gonna.

330
00:13:50,508 --> 00:13:51,228
Speaker 4: Go all in on that.

331
00:13:51,308 --> 00:13:54,548
Speaker 7: So now Donald's left with this kind of second tier

332
00:13:54,668 --> 00:13:57,428
Speaker 7: contract and this sort of maybe should we I don't

333
00:13:57,468 --> 00:13:59,388
Speaker 7: know when it could have been a slam dunk had

334
00:13:59,388 --> 00:14:01,908
Speaker 7: he just played even somewhat like he did in those

335
00:14:01,908 --> 00:14:03,828
Speaker 7: previous seventeen weeks, Peter, is.

336
00:14:03,788 --> 00:14:06,268
Speaker 3: Something really that you said in the last fourteen minutes

337
00:14:06,348 --> 00:14:09,188
Speaker 3: or so, is that Sam Donald is the domino looking

338
00:14:09,228 --> 00:14:12,148
Speaker 3: at those born nineteen ninety five or on dominoes is

339
00:14:12,188 --> 00:14:14,348
Speaker 3: when you take little bricks and you line them up

340
00:14:14,428 --> 00:14:17,548
Speaker 3: and then it's very gratifying when you sing and they

341
00:14:17,628 --> 00:14:20,308
Speaker 3: all start to fall. Okay, that is what dominoes is.

342
00:14:20,388 --> 00:14:22,988
Speaker 3: Just so we have a clarification. I'm pretty sure when

343
00:14:23,028 --> 00:14:25,668
Speaker 3: you were you born ninety ninety two, do you know dominoes?

344
00:14:26,068 --> 00:14:28,388
Speaker 6: The dominoes that my uncle's played was a little different.

345
00:14:28,508 --> 00:14:31,828
Speaker 3: Okay, well, here we go. We're keeping it clean. On GMFB,

346
00:14:32,028 --> 00:14:37,428
Speaker 3: Free Agent Frenzy is just beginning with Rock. All right, guys,

347

348
00:14:41,908 --> 00:14:43,228
Speaker 3: Sam Donald, where are you going to land? But I'm

349
00:14:43,228 --> 00:14:44,748
Speaker 3: also looking at the guys that are catching the ball

350
00:14:44,788 --> 00:14:47,348
Speaker 3: from him. We got DK Metcalf. We know where you're going.

351
00:14:47,348 --> 00:14:50,308
Speaker 3: We got Chris Godwin, Davante Adams. You're in LA now

352
00:14:50,908 --> 00:14:52,028
Speaker 3: where else are we looking?

353
00:14:52,068 --> 00:14:52,148
Speaker 6: At?

354
00:14:52,188 --> 00:14:54,868
Speaker 3: Free agency Frenzy eight hours of live covered starts today

356
00:14:59,028 --> 00:15:02,228
Speaker 3: DK Metcalf. You are a Pittsburgh stealer for the next

357
00:15:02,228 --> 00:15:04,708
Speaker 3: couple of seasons. Gino Smith no longer we own you

358
00:15:04,748 --> 00:15:05,148
Speaker 3: the football?

359
00:15:05,148 --> 00:15:05,548
Speaker 6: Who is it?

360
00:15:05,588 --> 00:15:07,748
Speaker 3: And that's where we just talked about that. What are

361
00:15:07,748 --> 00:15:09,388
Speaker 3: the Raiders look like with Gino? But we got to

362
00:15:09,388 --> 00:15:12,988
Speaker 3: go wide receivers as well, Kyle, we.

363
00:15:12,988 --> 00:15:14,668
Speaker 8: Do and Peter and I are trying to think about

364
00:15:14,668 --> 00:15:16,628
Speaker 8: the nooid back from Dominoes back in the night. You

365
00:15:16,628 --> 00:15:20,068
Speaker 8: got to avoid the nooid who was avoiding a little Caesars.

366
00:15:20,228 --> 00:15:21,428
Speaker 6: Yeah, Alloyd was dominant.

367
00:15:21,588 --> 00:15:25,428
Speaker 4: It was dominant. Pizza was avoiding like annoying you like nobody.

368
00:15:25,108 --> 00:15:26,108
Speaker 9: Pizza's liked the hut.

369
00:15:26,588 --> 00:15:29,228
Speaker 6: Anyways, are we're a little Caesar's house?

370
00:15:29,268 --> 00:15:31,708
Speaker 9: Spiker McKenzie was like lying there with women and bikinis.

371
00:15:31,708 --> 00:15:33,348
Speaker 9: He's a dog. What was going on there?

372
00:15:33,748 --> 00:15:34,188
Speaker 6: Devonte?

373
00:15:34,268 --> 00:15:34,868
Speaker 4: Where's he going?

374
00:15:34,868 --> 00:15:35,828
Speaker 9: We already know the rams.

375
00:15:36,148 --> 00:15:38,268
Speaker 4: Whoe are all the quarterbacks going? That's what's most important.

376
00:15:38,268 --> 00:15:40,028
Speaker 9: That's what we talk to. Grunt, Good morning football, don't

377
00:15:40,028 --> 00:15:40,748
Speaker 9: go anywhere.

378
00:15:40,428 --> 00:15:44,108
Speaker 6: Head JOm Max Heaven. Yeah, that's the great We love Pepsi.

379
00:15:52,308 --> 00:15:53,948
Speaker 2: Good mon football.

380
00:15:55,668 --> 00:15:59,388
Speaker 3: Nightmare material for Brock Veraren, who's with us on GMFB today.

381
00:15:59,388 --> 00:16:01,108
Speaker 3: As a safety in the league, if you're dealing with

382
00:16:01,228 --> 00:16:04,868
Speaker 3: quarterbacks and wide receivers that are bopping around a different teams,

383
00:16:05,108 --> 00:16:08,268
Speaker 3: you have to prepare for them so differently, especially Ian

384
00:16:08,348 --> 00:16:11,748
Speaker 3: Rappaport when it's a DK Metcalf or Devonte Adams showing

385
00:16:11,828 --> 00:16:14,028
Speaker 3: up in New Towns. What happened with some wide receivers

386
00:16:14,068 --> 00:16:14,628
Speaker 3: over the weekend?

387
00:16:15,108 --> 00:16:18,588
Speaker 5: Crazy situation for several big time, big name rob receivers.

388
00:16:18,588 --> 00:16:21,468
Speaker 5: We'll start right there with dk Metcalf, the star for Seattle.

389
00:16:21,908 --> 00:16:24,428
Speaker 5: We have known for several days that he has requested

390
00:16:24,468 --> 00:16:28,388
Speaker 5: a trade, wanted to be out, wanted to explore his options, wanted.

391
00:16:28,028 --> 00:16:28,908
Speaker 4: A new contract.

392
00:16:29,028 --> 00:16:32,428
Speaker 5: It all happened for him last Night's just told me

393
00:16:32,468 --> 00:16:36,708
Speaker 5: and colleigue Tom Pellisero that the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers

394
00:16:36,748 --> 00:16:41,828
Speaker 5: agreed to a trade requiring acquiring Dk Metcalf in exchange

395
00:16:41,828 --> 00:16:43,868
Speaker 5: for a second round pick, also giving him a five year,

396
00:16:43,868 --> 00:16:46,108
Speaker 5: one hundred and fifty million dollar contract. It has been

397
00:16:46,188 --> 00:16:48,308
Speaker 5: quite an odyssey for the Steelers. They've been searching for

398
00:16:48,348 --> 00:16:49,868
Speaker 5: a big time receiver for.

399
00:16:49,908 --> 00:16:50,508
Speaker 4: More than a year.

400
00:16:50,548 --> 00:16:53,148
Speaker 5: It started with Brandon Ayuke and went to Devonte Adams,

401
00:16:53,148 --> 00:16:56,828
Speaker 5: and went to Mike Williams, and now they get Dk Metcalf.

402
00:16:57,028 --> 00:16:58,148
Speaker 4: Huge deal for them.

403
00:16:58,228 --> 00:16:58,948
Speaker 3: You'll see who their.

404
00:16:58,908 --> 00:17:00,548
Speaker 4: Quarterback ends up being as well.

405
00:17:00,588 --> 00:17:05,388
Speaker 5: Meanwhile, Devonte Adams also landed last night. He agreed to

406
00:17:05,508 --> 00:17:08,228
Speaker 5: terms with the Los Angeles Rams. He gets a two year,

407
00:17:08,588 --> 00:17:13,148
Speaker 5: forty six million dollar contract, twenty six million dollars guaranteed. Now,

408
00:17:13,188 --> 00:17:14,788
Speaker 5: he wanted to be on the West coast, and there

409
00:17:14,828 --> 00:17:16,708
Speaker 5: was a ton of talk about whether or not he

410
00:17:16,708 --> 00:17:19,708
Speaker 5: would join Aaron Rodgers. That was obviously a consideration. We

411
00:17:19,788 --> 00:17:22,388
Speaker 5: don't know where Rogers is going to go. He wanted

412
00:17:22,428 --> 00:17:24,508
Speaker 5: to be as a freative for the first time on

413
00:17:24,548 --> 00:17:27,868
Speaker 5: the West coast lands with the Rams as they continue

414
00:17:27,908 --> 00:17:30,348
Speaker 5: to load up for quarterback Matthew staff.

415
00:17:30,028 --> 00:17:31,748
Speaker 3: All right, there were a handful of others two of course,

416
00:17:31,748 --> 00:17:34,628
Speaker 3: te Higgins got the franchise tag from Cincinnati. Hollywood Brown

417
00:17:34,668 --> 00:17:37,988
Speaker 3: resigns in Kansas City. There's a good list of guys available,

418
00:17:38,228 --> 00:17:40,628
Speaker 3: and thank you so much. But Peter, when you inspect

419
00:17:40,628 --> 00:17:43,468
Speaker 3: the recent wide receiver moves, what caught your eye or

420
00:17:43,468 --> 00:17:46,068
Speaker 3: do you want to add to any of those developments

421
00:17:46,108 --> 00:17:47,548
Speaker 3: as we know that you know some of those teams

422
00:17:47,588 --> 00:17:48,028
Speaker 3: pretty well.

423
00:17:48,228 --> 00:17:50,628
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm interested in now who's left. Chris Godwin's an

424
00:17:50,668 --> 00:17:53,348
Speaker 7: interesting one. Chris Godwin could have been re upped or

425
00:17:53,428 --> 00:17:55,668
Speaker 7: could have been extended by the Buccaneers. He's going to

426
00:17:55,708 --> 00:17:57,748
Speaker 7: be a free agent. But you go back real quick

427
00:17:58,148 --> 00:18:00,988
Speaker 7: on the Metcalf piece, and I think when you're looking

428
00:18:01,028 --> 00:18:03,908
Speaker 7: at DK Metcalf as a Pittsburgh Steeler, the question is

429
00:18:03,908 --> 00:18:05,508
Speaker 7: is that chicken in the egg? Do you now have

430
00:18:05,588 --> 00:18:08,388
Speaker 7: to pair him with a big armed quarterback and you

431
00:18:08,508 --> 00:18:10,668
Speaker 7: need him now find the right quarterback? Or can you

432
00:18:10,708 --> 00:18:13,628
Speaker 7: go with Justin Field still who is not gonna be

433
00:18:13,668 --> 00:18:16,468
Speaker 7: that guy that's gonna hit Pickens and DK Metcalf on

434
00:18:16,508 --> 00:18:19,988
Speaker 7: these d things. Kyle's hit this all morning like Justin Fields,

435
00:18:20,108 --> 00:18:23,908
Speaker 7: Arthur Smith, friar Mouth. You know you add in another

436
00:18:23,988 --> 00:18:26,428
Speaker 7: tight end probably on this team and these are all

437
00:18:26,508 --> 00:18:29,228
Speaker 7: big body guys, Like this has always been a run

438
00:18:29,348 --> 00:18:32,308
Speaker 7: first offense, and Justin Fields to me still is a

439
00:18:32,388 --> 00:18:33,388
Speaker 7: run first quarterback.

440
00:18:33,428 --> 00:18:35,028
Speaker 4: Now he's smart, he's.

441
00:18:34,788 --> 00:18:38,588
Speaker 7: Well liked, he's appreciating, Like, is Justin Fields really the

442
00:18:38,668 --> 00:18:40,948
Speaker 7: number one option for Pittsburgh or do they now say

443
00:18:41,308 --> 00:18:43,308
Speaker 7: we need to consider a guy, Maybe go in big,

444
00:18:43,348 --> 00:18:45,828
Speaker 7: big arm, Maybe go with a different quarterback than that.

445
00:18:45,948 --> 00:18:48,828
Speaker 7: So I'm fascinating to see what the DK Metcalf's on

446
00:18:48,828 --> 00:18:51,388
Speaker 7: against because it's thirty million dollars for a number one

447
00:18:51,428 --> 00:18:55,228
Speaker 7: wide receiver who's entering his thirties. Who's the quarterback they're

448
00:18:55,228 --> 00:18:56,828
Speaker 7: gonna pair with them either way?

449
00:18:57,228 --> 00:18:59,268
Speaker 4: After failing to land Brandon.

450
00:18:58,988 --> 00:19:03,068
Speaker 7: Aiyuk last offseason, after failing to land Christian Kirk last offseason,

451
00:19:03,348 --> 00:19:06,428
Speaker 7: the Steelers five finally get their first wide receiver one

452
00:19:06,468 --> 00:19:09,668
Speaker 7: maybe since Antonio Brown, and they get DK Metcalf.

453
00:19:09,668 --> 00:19:11,868
Speaker 4: This has been a long road. Who's throwing on the ball.

454
00:19:12,668 --> 00:19:15,428
Speaker 10: My only hesitance is their new wide receiver one has

455
00:19:15,428 --> 00:19:18,188
Speaker 10: the same skill set as their new wide receiver two

456
00:19:18,348 --> 00:19:19,268
Speaker 10: in George Pickens.

457
00:19:19,348 --> 00:19:20,668
Speaker 6: Big guys, straight line.

458
00:19:20,508 --> 00:19:22,668
Speaker 10: Guys, guys who excel when the ball is high up

459
00:19:22,668 --> 00:19:24,428
Speaker 10: in the air and I can jump higher and extend

460
00:19:24,428 --> 00:19:27,068
Speaker 10: my long arms more than you. We mentioned a couple

461
00:19:27,108 --> 00:19:29,548
Speaker 10: of minutes ago. We just don't know what this Pittsburgh

462
00:19:29,548 --> 00:19:30,708
Speaker 10: offense is going to look like.

463
00:19:30,748 --> 00:19:32,148
Speaker 6: They were so limited.

464
00:19:32,228 --> 00:19:35,468
Speaker 10: But for a positive and optimistic outlook, here's what it

465
00:19:35,508 --> 00:19:36,028
Speaker 10: does look like.

466
00:19:36,108 --> 00:19:37,108
Speaker 6: You're a defense.

467
00:19:37,228 --> 00:19:39,948
Speaker 10: You cannot play single high, and that opens up a

468
00:19:39,988 --> 00:19:41,948
Speaker 10: whole lot of things, especially for the run game. If

469
00:19:41,948 --> 00:19:45,268
Speaker 10: they figure out Jalen Warren whoever that running back room entails,

470
00:19:45,468 --> 00:19:47,388
Speaker 10: they should be able to feast in there. Because if

471
00:19:47,428 --> 00:19:49,908
Speaker 10: George Pickens is way over there and DK Metcalf is

472
00:19:49,948 --> 00:19:52,628
Speaker 10: way over there, you cannot ask a free safety to

473
00:19:52,788 --> 00:19:55,988
Speaker 10: play after play consistently be over top both of them.

474
00:19:56,188 --> 00:19:57,028
Speaker 6: And that's exciting.

475
00:19:57,348 --> 00:20:00,468
Speaker 10: Maybe this is the most downhill offense we've ever seen.

476
00:20:00,508 --> 00:20:01,388
Speaker 6: We are going to run the.

477
00:20:01,308 --> 00:20:03,948
Speaker 10: Ball right at you, or we are going to chuck

478
00:20:03,948 --> 00:20:06,348
Speaker 10: it up a along the sideline. And while they ran

479
00:20:06,388 --> 00:20:08,948
Speaker 10: into a brick wall last year, once team started figuring

480
00:20:08,948 --> 00:20:11,068
Speaker 10: that out, maybe they can get a quarterback who can

481
00:20:11,108 --> 00:20:13,548
Speaker 10: expose a little more versatility than Russell Wilson did. So,

482
00:20:13,788 --> 00:20:16,348
Speaker 10: if you want to be optimistic, that's what the offense is.

483
00:20:16,388 --> 00:20:17,588
Speaker 6: You cannot play single high.

484
00:20:17,948 --> 00:20:22,228
Speaker 10: Our running backs feast, Jalen Warren feasts if he is

485
00:20:22,668 --> 00:20:25,788
Speaker 10: their running back, Calvin Austin feast, pat firemoothfeast.

486
00:20:26,068 --> 00:20:28,068
Speaker 6: But again, I need to see it.

487
00:20:28,148 --> 00:20:31,108
Speaker 10: I'm withholding my excitement until I can see a full

488
00:20:31,188 --> 00:20:34,188
Speaker 10: route tree from either DK Metcalf or George Pickens.

489
00:20:35,028 --> 00:20:37,548
Speaker 8: I like route tree talk because it's pure football, and

490
00:20:37,628 --> 00:20:40,268
Speaker 8: so much of the reaction to this move is not football.

491
00:20:40,348 --> 00:20:44,068
Speaker 8: It's personality, it's psychology. And it's hard to talk about

492
00:20:44,148 --> 00:20:46,948
Speaker 8: DK in the same wide receiver room as George Pickens

493
00:20:47,028 --> 00:20:49,868
Speaker 8: without talking about the personalities. Kind of feels like it's

494
00:20:49,868 --> 00:20:53,188
Speaker 8: a big deal here. We have two players, certainly Pickens,

495
00:20:53,428 --> 00:20:55,428
Speaker 8: who I'm going to put this in a positivement, are

496
00:20:55,588 --> 00:20:58,148
Speaker 8: very emotional. Earlier in the show, we ran this reel

497
00:20:58,188 --> 00:21:02,388
Speaker 8: of George Pickens' losing composure. Listen, there's a real DK too.

498
00:21:02,748 --> 00:21:04,828
Speaker 8: And if you're George Pickens, who is maybe been a

499
00:21:04,828 --> 00:21:06,628
Speaker 8: little bit insecure, is going to the last year of

500
00:21:06,668 --> 00:21:09,028
Speaker 8: your contract, who wants one of these huge deals, you're

501
00:21:09,028 --> 00:21:11,428
Speaker 8: telling me you're bringing in someone who is actually more

502
00:21:11,468 --> 00:21:13,348
Speaker 8: talented than I am, who's bigger than I am, more

503
00:21:13,388 --> 00:21:15,788
Speaker 8: experienced than I am, and more well paid.

504
00:21:15,508 --> 00:21:15,908
Speaker 6: Than I am.

505
00:21:16,228 --> 00:21:19,228
Speaker 8: That's a shot right to the core. You just went

506
00:21:19,268 --> 00:21:22,988
Speaker 8: to the number two receiver and now the quarterback might

507
00:21:23,028 --> 00:21:24,028
Speaker 8: be a run first quarter?

508
00:21:24,148 --> 00:21:25,588
Speaker 4: How am I gonna get my numbers?

509
00:21:25,828 --> 00:21:27,268
Speaker 6: How am I going to get paid? Like?

510
00:21:27,548 --> 00:21:29,268
Speaker 8: I don't even blame him for this, Like you got

511
00:21:29,268 --> 00:21:31,028
Speaker 8: to look out for yourself. He's in a pretty important

512
00:21:31,068 --> 00:21:32,068
Speaker 8: juncture of his career.

513
00:21:32,468 --> 00:21:33,908
Speaker 4: These two players want the ball.

514
00:21:34,148 --> 00:21:37,108
Speaker 8: George Pickens will throw his helmet on the sidelines scream

515
00:21:37,308 --> 00:21:40,668
Speaker 8: I want the ball. And that's before DK Metcalf got there.

516
00:21:40,708 --> 00:21:43,708
Speaker 8: So the chemistry of it and the Mike Tomlin knows

517
00:21:43,748 --> 00:21:47,068
Speaker 8: all factor of it is volatile to me. And it's

518
00:21:47,108 --> 00:21:49,588
Speaker 8: a little bit of a buckle up. We did this earlier,

519
00:21:49,628 --> 00:21:51,988
Speaker 8: We're gonna do it again. Peter brought it to the table,

520
00:21:52,028 --> 00:21:55,348
Speaker 8: as he so often does. Zach Azani a z Z

521
00:21:55,628 --> 00:21:58,788
Speaker 8: A n N I is the wide receiver coach for

522
00:21:58,828 --> 00:22:02,508
Speaker 8: your Pittsburgh Steelers. Thoughts and prayers go get them. This

523
00:22:02,548 --> 00:22:05,268
Speaker 8: is a guy incredibly experienced years old. He's one of

524
00:22:05,308 --> 00:22:08,348
Speaker 8: these coach was like fourteen stops. He started at Valpo.

525
00:22:08,788 --> 00:22:10,788
Speaker 8: We talked about he was at Central Michigan and coach

526
00:22:10,828 --> 00:22:13,548
Speaker 8: Antonio Brown. He's with the Jets, A couple of years ago.

527
00:22:13,708 --> 00:22:16,188
Speaker 8: He has seen it all. I don't know if he's

528
00:22:16,228 --> 00:22:19,668
Speaker 8: seen this. So just the idea of keeping those guys happy,

529
00:22:19,788 --> 00:22:22,148
Speaker 8: you know, can use like attention cutter. I would love

530
00:22:22,148 --> 00:22:24,668
Speaker 8: a tweet from Pickens right now that is some sort

531
00:22:24,668 --> 00:22:26,548
Speaker 8: of take the air out of the situation a little

532
00:22:26,588 --> 00:22:29,668
Speaker 8: bit and say let's go ball at DK whatever it is.

533
00:22:29,748 --> 00:22:32,788
Speaker 8: Because you watch football, you watch red zone, you know

534
00:22:32,868 --> 00:22:35,428
Speaker 8: these two guys are prone to doing crazy stuff after

535
00:22:35,468 --> 00:22:37,668
Speaker 8: the play, sometimes during the play. Now they're on the

536
00:22:37,708 --> 00:22:39,388
Speaker 8: same team, in the same huddle for a team that

537
00:22:39,468 --> 00:22:40,548
Speaker 8: is always in the playoffs.

538
00:22:40,548 --> 00:22:41,188
Speaker 9: It's fast as Kyle.

539
00:22:41,308 --> 00:22:44,748
Speaker 7: What if DK wants that number fourteen that Peter I

540
00:22:44,748 --> 00:22:45,708
Speaker 7: need to mention the fourteen?

541
00:22:45,828 --> 00:22:47,948
Speaker 4: What happens? What's that conversation there?

542
00:22:48,028 --> 00:22:50,588
Speaker 6: I mean, DK can't get it.

543
00:22:50,628 --> 00:22:53,148
Speaker 8: There's already a receiver that has it, so Peter, it's

544
00:22:53,188 --> 00:22:55,868
Speaker 8: so true, so personal to the numbers not even met

545
00:22:55,948 --> 00:22:58,148
Speaker 8: yet and like already number let's talk.

546
00:22:58,268 --> 00:22:59,668
Speaker 6: They could have been fifteen to fourteen.

547
00:22:59,788 --> 00:23:02,628
Speaker 4: Now they got the same fourteen.

548
00:23:02,868 --> 00:23:06,028
Speaker 3: Point and I'm like, I need a picture of them,

549
00:23:06,068 --> 00:23:09,028
Speaker 3: like Sharon vagasaapach Kinds or something, just to break the ice.

550
00:23:09,828 --> 00:23:11,788
Speaker 3: They're hanging out they're talking about their numbers and they

551
00:23:11,828 --> 00:23:14,668
Speaker 3: have candy in common. At least something we have the

552
00:23:14,708 --> 00:23:16,588
Speaker 3: new Over the weekend, the news came out that Miles

553
00:23:16,628 --> 00:23:20,428
Speaker 3: Garrett became the highest paid non quarterback. Many thought that

554
00:23:20,548 --> 00:23:23,028
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase was going to take ownership of that contract

555
00:23:23,028 --> 00:23:26,548
Speaker 3: deal this offseason. Peter, what does the wide receiver moves?

556
00:23:26,628 --> 00:23:29,308
Speaker 3: What does the Miles Garrett number now? Due to Jamar

557
00:23:29,428 --> 00:23:32,188
Speaker 3: Chase and his conversations with the Cincinnati.

558
00:23:31,708 --> 00:23:34,468
Speaker 11: Bengals, Yeah, look, it just took it to another level

559
00:23:34,508 --> 00:23:37,868
Speaker 11: because Duke Tobin, who's the lead executive on these negotiations

560
00:23:37,868 --> 00:23:39,868
Speaker 11: for the Bengals at the combine, came out and he

561
00:23:39,948 --> 00:23:42,068
Speaker 11: said that Jamar Chase is going to make the most

562
00:23:42,108 --> 00:23:43,428
Speaker 11: money as any non quarterback.

563
00:23:43,428 --> 00:23:44,828
Speaker 4: We're going to get that number there, We're going to

564
00:23:44,908 --> 00:23:46,468
Speaker 4: get that to him. And he said, well, that non

565
00:23:46,548 --> 00:23:47,428
Speaker 4: number just.

566
00:23:47,588 --> 00:23:49,748
Speaker 7: Took a giant leap because no one.

567
00:23:49,588 --> 00:23:51,948
Speaker 4: Saw Miles Garrett making forty million dollars.

568
00:23:51,988 --> 00:23:54,548
Speaker 7: It really all started with Max Crosby getting a new

569
00:23:54,548 --> 00:23:56,748
Speaker 7: deal on Friday, and suddenly it was like Max Crosby's

570
00:23:56,788 --> 00:23:58,188
Speaker 7: making thirty five million a year.

571
00:23:58,388 --> 00:23:59,988
Speaker 4: Now Garrett's making forty million.

572
00:24:00,308 --> 00:24:03,068
Speaker 7: What do you value Jamar Chase at who's waited his

573
00:24:03,188 --> 00:24:06,948
Speaker 7: time and it is now his opportunity to cash in. Look,

574
00:24:07,068 --> 00:24:10,108
Speaker 7: I still think the Bengals have great intentions to bring

575
00:24:10,148 --> 00:24:13,148
Speaker 7: back Chase and Higgins, both of them.

576
00:24:13,668 --> 00:24:15,188
Speaker 4: I think if t Higgins was to be on.

577
00:24:15,188 --> 00:24:18,588
Speaker 7: The open market, he could make more than thirty million dollars.

578
00:24:18,668 --> 00:24:20,668
Speaker 7: I think he's viewed as a better wide receiver than

579
00:24:20,748 --> 00:24:23,988
Speaker 7: DK Metcalf. So all of this tells me that the

580
00:24:23,988 --> 00:24:29,108
Speaker 7: Bengals might be paying three guys Burrow, Chase, and Higgins,

581
00:24:29,588 --> 00:24:31,428
Speaker 7: and they might have to say, pull him the rest

582
00:24:31,468 --> 00:24:33,388
Speaker 7: of the team with forty nine guys that might not

583
00:24:33,508 --> 00:24:36,428
Speaker 7: necessarily be the best at their positions, or they have

584
00:24:36,468 --> 00:24:39,388
Speaker 7: to draft Hella Good because I don't think they're gonna

585
00:24:39,388 --> 00:24:41,308
Speaker 7: have much money to spend anywhere else.

586
00:24:41,748 --> 00:24:44,588
Speaker 4: Trey Hendrickson great player, he wasn't going to be able

587
00:24:44,628 --> 00:24:46,588
Speaker 4: to be a part of his budget. Of all these

588
00:24:46,588 --> 00:24:47,508
Speaker 4: teams that seem.

589
00:24:47,308 --> 00:24:50,388
Speaker 7: To just avoid the salary cap and figure out ways

590
00:24:50,388 --> 00:24:53,908
Speaker 7: to make it work, the Bengals waiting to pay Jamar

591
00:24:54,028 --> 00:24:57,628
Speaker 7: Chase this late may have burned themselves a bit because

592
00:24:57,668 --> 00:25:00,228
Speaker 7: now you've got Chase and Higgins and the salary cap

593
00:25:00,268 --> 00:25:02,068
Speaker 7: has expanded to this amount of money.

594
00:25:02,108 --> 00:25:04,108
Speaker 4: They've got to find a way to pay both those guys.

595
00:25:04,428 --> 00:25:06,668
Speaker 7: If they had done it one year ago, two years ago,

596
00:25:07,028 --> 00:25:08,668
Speaker 7: they might have been in a better position right now.

597
00:25:08,708 --> 00:25:11,228
Speaker 7: But it looks like Chase and Higgins are their top priorities,

598
00:25:11,468 --> 00:25:13,508
Speaker 7: and their numbers might have jumped leaves and bounds even

599
00:25:13,548 --> 00:25:14,548
Speaker 7: the last forty eight hours.

600
00:25:14,588 --> 00:25:15,388
Speaker 9: That's crazy to me.

601
00:25:15,588 --> 00:25:17,748
Speaker 8: I just don't think that's how you build a Super

602
00:25:17,748 --> 00:25:20,828
Speaker 8: Bowl team. The Super Bowl team where your best and

603
00:25:20,868 --> 00:25:23,948
Speaker 8: your highest paid three players are quarterback, wide out, wide

604
00:25:23,988 --> 00:25:26,548
Speaker 8: out like that's very, very rare. Maybe one of the

605
00:25:26,588 --> 00:25:29,828
Speaker 8: peyton eras with Reggie and Marvin Sherb like that.

606
00:25:30,068 --> 00:25:31,468
Speaker 6: That is really a tough ask.

607
00:25:31,668 --> 00:25:34,988
Speaker 8: Especially it's not like we can't find any defensive players

608
00:25:35,348 --> 00:25:37,748
Speaker 8: we keep missing. You have the sack leader in your

609
00:25:37,788 --> 00:25:41,268
Speaker 8: building who is wanting to stay there. And it's not

610
00:25:41,348 --> 00:25:43,468
Speaker 8: a disrespect to t Higgins. Go somewhere else and make

611
00:25:43,508 --> 00:25:44,908
Speaker 8: all the money in the world. You're really good player.

612
00:25:44,908 --> 00:25:47,468
Speaker 9: But it's almost just like, like, no, we want them both.

613
00:25:47,508 --> 00:25:50,108
Speaker 8: And I think Burrows speaking up for Higgins maybe plays

614
00:25:50,108 --> 00:25:50,908
Speaker 8: a role in this thing.

615
00:25:51,308 --> 00:25:52,948
Speaker 6: You can't pay everybody.

616
00:25:52,508 --> 00:25:54,188
Speaker 9: To to both wideouts.

617
00:25:54,228 --> 00:25:56,708
Speaker 8: I think it's crazy pick one of them and then

618
00:25:56,748 --> 00:25:59,068
Speaker 8: pick your pass rusher and go win some games. It

619
00:25:59,348 --> 00:26:01,588
Speaker 8: feels like, what do we just see them do light

620
00:26:01,708 --> 00:26:04,868
Speaker 8: up the world and not do anything? Are they gonna

621
00:26:04,908 --> 00:26:06,348
Speaker 8: have to get to forty every single week? Are they

622
00:26:06,388 --> 00:26:08,988
Speaker 8: gonna have to get to fifty? It's not that easy

623
00:26:08,988 --> 00:26:11,228
Speaker 8: to nail your draft picks. Most drafts at the Bengals

624
00:26:11,308 --> 00:26:13,468
Speaker 8: just most draft picks for teams are terrible. It's like

625
00:26:13,668 --> 00:26:16,788
Speaker 8: most of them with there's very few hits. You got

626
00:26:16,788 --> 00:26:19,788
Speaker 8: one with Chase, you got one with bur I completely Higgins,

627
00:26:19,868 --> 00:26:22,228
Speaker 8: you got one with Higgins two But like, okay, So

628
00:26:22,428 --> 00:26:23,468
Speaker 8: I don't know what's up with Hendrickson.

629
00:26:23,508 --> 00:26:24,948
Speaker 6: Why do they don't want him? The Saints didn't want

630
00:26:24,988 --> 00:26:25,348
Speaker 6: him either.

631
00:26:25,428 --> 00:26:26,268
Speaker 4: Thirty one years old.

632
00:26:26,708 --> 00:26:29,828
Speaker 8: He let the NFL in sacks see Higgins, that Cavin Johnson,

633
00:26:29,828 --> 00:26:31,868
Speaker 8: pier and know what we're talking about. I also, while

634
00:26:31,868 --> 00:26:33,548
Speaker 8: we're sitting here and Peter's just ex stolen all these

635
00:26:33,548 --> 00:26:35,828
Speaker 8: things about the Bengals, I'm really, my brain isn't a

636
00:26:35,828 --> 00:26:38,868
Speaker 8: pretzel about the DK and George Pickens jersey number, and

637
00:26:39,428 --> 00:26:43,908
Speaker 8: so the quick research says DK also had fourteen college right,

638
00:26:43,908 --> 00:26:44,828
Speaker 8: so he's very tied to it.

639
00:26:44,868 --> 00:26:46,628
Speaker 4: That's his all on the Dickens wear Georgia. I'm glad

640
00:26:46,668 --> 00:26:47,308
Speaker 4: you brought that up.

641
00:26:47,548 --> 00:26:50,468
Speaker 9: Pickens wore number one at Georgia, which is a sick number.

642
00:26:50,628 --> 00:26:53,268
Speaker 8: So if DK were to show up and offer Pickens

643
00:26:53,388 --> 00:26:57,028
Speaker 8: money to change, if the fields is too one, so

644
00:26:57,068 --> 00:26:58,908
Speaker 8: fields one should be available for this deal, tell.

645
00:26:58,748 --> 00:26:59,228
Speaker 9: Me if it's not.

646
00:26:59,348 --> 00:27:01,548
Speaker 4: It's also a really cool, passive aggressive way to.

647
00:27:01,548 --> 00:27:05,228
Speaker 8: Say I'm one. I'm number one one, George. I'm sure

648
00:27:05,268 --> 00:27:07,348
Speaker 8: you're watching. It's been a hell of the twenty four

649
00:27:07,348 --> 00:27:10,028
Speaker 8: hours for you. Go to the one, take money from DK,

650
00:27:10,228 --> 00:27:11,788
Speaker 8: give up the fourteen, start.

651
00:27:11,588 --> 00:27:14,308
Speaker 7: A new you envision you envision George Pickens to be

652
00:27:14,308 --> 00:27:15,708
Speaker 7: on this roster week one.

653
00:27:15,788 --> 00:27:17,428
Speaker 8: The question for me is we'll be on the roster

654
00:27:17,508 --> 00:27:19,668
Speaker 8: week seventeen, Like that's the question.

655
00:27:19,828 --> 00:27:22,748
Speaker 9: I do week one, Yes, okay, but if we're getting

656
00:27:22,788 --> 00:27:23,348
Speaker 9: into week.

657
00:27:23,228 --> 00:27:25,508
Speaker 8: Five, six, seven, eight, and let's just say, like it's not.

658
00:27:25,468 --> 00:27:27,588
Speaker 4: A great marriage, we'll see, okay.

659
00:27:27,628 --> 00:27:29,508
Speaker 3: Quick pass at the Steelers roster they don't have a

660
00:27:29,588 --> 00:27:29,948
Speaker 3: number one.

661
00:27:29,988 --> 00:27:30,428
Speaker 12: I'll go.

662
00:27:30,828 --> 00:27:31,588
Speaker 6: I just solved it.

663
00:27:31,668 --> 00:27:34,708
Speaker 3: I have a future advice for any candidates applying for

664
00:27:34,748 --> 00:27:37,028
Speaker 3: a GM job. To quote Peter Scheger March of twenty

665
00:27:37,068 --> 00:27:38,668
Speaker 3: twenty five draft Hella good.

666
00:27:38,828 --> 00:27:40,548
Speaker 9: I think it's a good strategy phrase.

667
00:27:40,708 --> 00:27:42,388
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good strategy.

668
00:27:44,348 --> 00:27:46,628
Speaker 9: Receivers.

669
00:27:47,068 --> 00:27:49,908
Speaker 3: Okay, after things ended up with Miles Garrett over the weekend,

670
00:27:49,948 --> 00:27:52,508
Speaker 3: I feel like we firmly placed this into a saga

671
00:27:52,668 --> 00:27:56,028
Speaker 3: with the Cleveland Browns. We know the end mj Acosta Luiz,

672
00:27:56,148 --> 00:27:59,028
Speaker 3: but how we got there is a very fascinating story

673
00:27:59,068 --> 00:27:59,428
Speaker 3: to tell.

674
00:27:59,708 --> 00:28:02,108
Speaker 13: Yeah, even with the spoilers and the tweets and everything

675
00:28:02,148 --> 00:28:05,268
Speaker 13: we know online, there's still a lot to process and digest. Yes,

676
00:28:05,388 --> 00:28:08,388
Speaker 13: Browns all pro defensive n Miles Garrett has had a

677
00:28:08,468 --> 00:28:11,188
Speaker 13: change of heart when it comes to his trade request,

678
00:28:11,548 --> 00:28:14,148
Speaker 13: and yeah, I mean a fat new contract. We'll probably

679
00:28:14,228 --> 00:28:17,028
Speaker 13: have that effect on you. Garrett agreed to a four

680
00:28:17,108 --> 00:28:20,668
Speaker 13: year extension with the Browns that averages forty million dollars

681
00:28:20,708 --> 00:28:23,308
Speaker 13: a year that also includes one hundred and twenty three

682
00:28:23,508 --> 00:28:27,228
Speaker 13: million dollars guaranteed. The deal makes Garrett the highest paid

683
00:28:27,388 --> 00:28:30,828
Speaker 13: non quarterback in the NFL, surpassing that deal signed by

684
00:28:30,948 --> 00:28:34,228
Speaker 13: Raiders defensive end Max Crosby just last week. The new

685
00:28:34,268 --> 00:28:38,108
Speaker 13: deal puts Garrett under contract for the next six seasons.

686
00:28:38,508 --> 00:28:41,468
Speaker 13: Running back Aaron Jones returning to the Vikings after agreeing

687
00:28:41,468 --> 00:28:43,948
Speaker 13: to a two year, twenty million dollar deal. In his

688
00:28:43,988 --> 00:28:46,508
Speaker 13: first season with the Vikings, Jones racked up a career

689
00:28:46,628 --> 00:28:49,588
Speaker 13: high one one hundred and thirty eight rushing yards to

690
00:28:49,708 --> 00:28:52,908
Speaker 13: go along with five touchdowns, his most since twenty twenty.

691
00:28:53,228 --> 00:28:56,548
Speaker 13: His oney five hundred and forty six yards from scrimmage

692
00:28:56,668 --> 00:28:59,788
Speaker 13: was the second most of his career. Over in Baltimore,

693
00:28:59,828 --> 00:29:03,748
Speaker 13: Lamar Jackson happy that his blindside protector is coming back.

694
00:29:03,948 --> 00:29:06,908
Speaker 13: Left tach call Ronnie Stanley avoiding free agency as he

695
00:29:06,988 --> 00:29:09,988
Speaker 13: agreed to terms on a three year deal worth sixty

696
00:29:10,108 --> 00:29:12,868
Speaker 13: mil to remain with the Ravens. Stanley was the number

697
00:29:12,908 --> 00:29:16,228
Speaker 13: two overall rated player on Greg Rosenhal's top one hundred

698
00:29:16,228 --> 00:29:19,388
Speaker 13: and one free agent's list, and the Chiefs keeping a

699
00:29:19,508 --> 00:29:22,748
Speaker 13: key piece of their defense. As NFL Network insider Ian

700
00:29:22,788 --> 00:29:26,228
Speaker 13: Rappaport is reporting, Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton has agreed to

701
00:29:26,308 --> 00:29:29,788
Speaker 13: terms on a three year, forty five million dollar extension.

702
00:29:30,068 --> 00:29:32,588
Speaker 13: Bolton led Kansas City and tackles and tackles for.

703
00:29:32,588 --> 00:29:34,628
Speaker 9: Loss this past season.

704
00:29:34,868 --> 00:29:37,468
Speaker 13: So the lesson big numbers.

705
00:29:37,308 --> 00:29:39,468
Speaker 2: Add to big bucks, all right.

706
00:29:39,468 --> 00:29:41,988
Speaker 13: When we come back, There were some major moves that

707
00:29:42,028 --> 00:29:44,108
Speaker 13: went down over the weekend. Jamie and the guys will

708
00:29:44,108 --> 00:29:46,348
Speaker 13: look at the ones that shock the most, and they're

709
00:29:46,348 --> 00:29:47,348
Speaker 13: not easy to shock.

710
00:29:47,708 --> 00:30:01,988
Speaker 12: That's right, good mon, football.

711
00:30:04,468 --> 00:30:06,748
Speaker 3: I think I'm ready to solve free agency. There were

712
00:30:06,788 --> 00:30:10,548
Speaker 3: so many moves made yesterday on a Sunday, guys, Let's

713
00:30:10,548 --> 00:30:13,508
Speaker 3: walk through the clock the guy and what happens here

714
00:30:13,628 --> 00:30:16,228
Speaker 3: we already know. Miles Garrett has now for the time being,

715
00:30:16,348 --> 00:30:20,148
Speaker 3: become the highest paid non quarterback in the NFL. Also

716
00:30:20,188 --> 00:30:22,068
Speaker 3: a change of heart. It was very strange and shocking.

717
00:30:22,308 --> 00:30:25,108
Speaker 3: Nick Fulton with home grown Kansas City. This guy is

718
00:30:25,148 --> 00:30:28,828
Speaker 3: a gmfbe home grown show guy. Peter Trigger loves him.

719
00:30:28,868 --> 00:30:31,308
Speaker 3: He resigns with Kansas City. Aaron Jones two years running

720
00:30:31,308 --> 00:30:33,908
Speaker 3: it back with the Minnesota Vikings, Ernest Jones drafted by

721
00:30:33,908 --> 00:30:36,308
Speaker 3: the Rams after a year with Seattle, he signs an

722
00:30:36,308 --> 00:30:40,148
Speaker 3: extension re racket After your cup of coffee. Devonte Adams

723
00:30:40,228 --> 00:30:43,348
Speaker 3: now playing in a Rams offense with Matt Stafford as

724
00:30:43,348 --> 00:30:47,268
Speaker 3: his quarterback. Harold Landry the Third reunited with Mike Rabel

725
00:30:47,308 --> 00:30:49,708
Speaker 3: in New England, played for him in Tennessee. And of

726
00:30:49,748 --> 00:30:52,548
Speaker 3: course Josh Allen gets a huge bag of money. And

727
00:30:52,668 --> 00:30:55,588
Speaker 3: dk Metcalf now playing for the Steelers. Is he wearing

728
00:30:55,668 --> 00:30:58,548
Speaker 3: number fourteen, who is his quarterback? Guys? Like I said,

729
00:30:58,588 --> 00:31:00,628
Speaker 3: it was the times, it was the guys, and it

730
00:31:00,668 --> 00:31:02,988
Speaker 3: was what happened to them, what team they are playing on.

731
00:31:03,548 --> 00:31:06,388
Speaker 3: What shocked you the most yesterday's Peter, besides the fact

732
00:31:06,388 --> 00:31:08,268
Speaker 3: that I can walk back and forth and do all

733
00:31:08,268 --> 00:31:09,668
Speaker 3: that talking at the same time without the.

734
00:31:09,668 --> 00:31:11,308
Speaker 9: Job, Jamie, it's really good.

735
00:31:11,828 --> 00:31:14,228
Speaker 7: I still go with the Miles Garrett deal because we

736
00:31:14,308 --> 00:31:17,268
Speaker 7: wasted so much time and energy talking about Miles Garrett

737
00:31:17,308 --> 00:31:19,668
Speaker 7: and how all he wanted was to win a Super

738
00:31:19,668 --> 00:31:21,668
Speaker 7: Bowl and how it wasn't going to happen in Cleveland,

739
00:31:21,668 --> 00:31:24,028
Speaker 7: and then yesterday, right before noon on a Sunday, it's

740
00:31:24,068 --> 00:31:26,788
Speaker 7: like forty million dollars a year. You'll rearrange your thoughts

741
00:31:26,828 --> 00:31:27,988
Speaker 7: on that. He said he had a change of heart.

742
00:31:27,988 --> 00:31:29,508
Speaker 7: I would have a change of heart for forty million

743
00:31:29,548 --> 00:31:32,428
Speaker 7: dollars as well. I honestly think it was just the

744
00:31:32,548 --> 00:31:35,308
Speaker 7: radio tour that he did during Super Bowl and then

745
00:31:35,348 --> 00:31:38,548
Speaker 7: the entire week us talking about it for to end

746
00:31:38,548 --> 00:31:40,268
Speaker 7: with him remaining as the Browns, and there was always

747
00:31:40,268 --> 00:31:43,068
Speaker 7: a number. It reminds me of like pawnd Stars or

748
00:31:43,108 --> 00:31:44,948
Speaker 7: one of these shows where it's like, hey, we do

749
00:31:44,948 --> 00:31:45,508
Speaker 7: it for this amount.

750
00:31:45,588 --> 00:31:47,068
Speaker 4: Yeah, you got a deal. And that's where it was.

751
00:31:47,148 --> 00:31:49,348
Speaker 4: We had a deal. So Miles Garrett to me, there

752
00:31:49,388 --> 00:31:50,788
Speaker 4: was an opportunity.

753
00:31:50,228 --> 00:31:53,228
Speaker 7: Here where he really showed that he stood for Super

754
00:31:53,228 --> 00:31:55,148
Speaker 7: Bowl over everything else.

755
00:31:54,908 --> 00:31:56,148
Speaker 4: And trade me to a contender.

756
00:31:56,308 --> 00:31:57,508
Speaker 7: And at the end of the day he goes back

757
00:31:57,548 --> 00:31:58,828
Speaker 7: to the Browns and now there are an even more

758
00:31:58,868 --> 00:31:59,388
Speaker 7: salary cap.

759
00:31:59,428 --> 00:32:00,348
Speaker 4: Hell because of that deal.

760
00:32:00,508 --> 00:32:01,388
Speaker 6: What are they? Sam Pond?

761
00:32:01,388 --> 00:32:03,668
Speaker 9: Stars are always like best I can do. The best I

762
00:32:03,668 --> 00:32:05,148
Speaker 9: can do is trade of the Jaguars.

763
00:32:05,788 --> 00:32:07,668
Speaker 8: Yeah, I can't do it, but all of a sudden

764
00:32:08,188 --> 00:32:11,028
Speaker 8: want they stay home in Cleveland. Yeah, listen, I still

765
00:32:11,028 --> 00:32:12,948
Speaker 8: think the last one you showed. I still think DK

766
00:32:13,028 --> 00:32:14,828
Speaker 8: Metcalf going to the stealers of the Steelers.

767
00:32:14,868 --> 00:32:16,348
Speaker 9: We kept using the word at home grown.

768
00:32:16,428 --> 00:32:17,108
Speaker 6: That's a seahawk.

769
00:32:17,188 --> 00:32:18,868
Speaker 8: That's a guy they drafted when a lot of people

770
00:32:18,908 --> 00:32:21,388
Speaker 8: didn't like him. He's came in, he's produced, he's a celebrity,

771
00:32:21,428 --> 00:32:23,748
Speaker 8: he's famous. He ran down Buddha Baker Ones and now

772
00:32:23,788 --> 00:32:26,748
Speaker 8: he's just he's gone to Pittsburgh and we've talked about

773
00:32:26,748 --> 00:32:28,868
Speaker 8: it all morning. You know, the match that he has

774
00:32:28,908 --> 00:32:31,068
Speaker 8: with George Pickens, is that going to be? Is that

775
00:32:31,108 --> 00:32:33,068
Speaker 8: going to be the next Marves and Harrison, Reggie Wayne.

776
00:32:33,228 --> 00:32:33,668
Speaker 6: I don't know.

777
00:32:33,708 --> 00:32:36,348
Speaker 8: It's a lot of different personalities going on there, but

778
00:32:36,428 --> 00:32:38,468
Speaker 8: we've talked about it over and over, and it's I

779
00:32:38,788 --> 00:32:41,588
Speaker 8: just think also, like the cogs of the NFL machine

780
00:32:41,588 --> 00:32:44,708
Speaker 8: were just firing all weekend. It's amazing that you wait,

781
00:32:44,748 --> 00:32:46,668
Speaker 8: you think you were told it's gonna start happening on Monday.

782
00:32:46,668 --> 00:32:50,388
Speaker 8: That's the frenzy. No, it was the weekend long start

783
00:32:50,468 --> 00:32:51,108
Speaker 8: to finish.

784
00:32:51,268 --> 00:32:52,028
Speaker 6: Big name began.

785
00:32:52,108 --> 00:32:53,268
Speaker 9: One moment, I'm listening.

786
00:32:52,988 --> 00:32:53,708
Speaker 6: To Miles Garrett.

787
00:32:53,708 --> 00:32:56,388
Speaker 8: Next minute, I turn an NFL Network and Adam Rank

788
00:32:56,468 --> 00:32:58,908
Speaker 8: is breaking down the fantasy ramifications for Jackson Smith and

789
00:32:58,948 --> 00:32:59,668
Speaker 8: Jig But and it's.

790
00:32:59,508 --> 00:33:00,828
Speaker 6: Just everywhere firing.

791
00:33:01,188 --> 00:33:02,228
Speaker 4: But it is a good point.

792
00:33:02,348 --> 00:33:04,668
Speaker 8: Like as much as we talk about Pittsburgh with d Okay,

793
00:33:04,868 --> 00:33:06,108
Speaker 8: what is Seattle now?

794
00:33:06,188 --> 00:33:07,588
Speaker 6: Like who is their quarterback?

795
00:33:08,028 --> 00:33:10,148
Speaker 9: Their wide receiver room is very strange.

796
00:33:10,228 --> 00:33:13,188
Speaker 8: They have like the young head coach, Lockett's gone, DK's gone,

797
00:33:13,348 --> 00:33:15,988
Speaker 8: it's Jsen and Jake Bobo. I think I saw the thing.

798
00:33:16,068 --> 00:33:17,908
Speaker 8: So they got a lot of work to do and

799
00:33:17,908 --> 00:33:19,548
Speaker 8: they're not afraid of it. But it's just it seems

800
00:33:19,548 --> 00:33:20,588
Speaker 8: like the cupboard is empty right now.

801
00:33:20,588 --> 00:33:21,228
Speaker 9: They got to fill it.

802
00:33:21,548 --> 00:33:25,028
Speaker 10: Hopefully plenty of patience for Mike McDonald over there in Seattle.

803
00:33:25,068 --> 00:33:27,108
Speaker 10: It may be a little while, but I trusted taking

804
00:33:27,148 --> 00:33:29,508
Speaker 10: it back on track. I'm sticking in the NFC West.

805
00:33:29,788 --> 00:33:31,908
Speaker 10: The most shocking for me was Devanta Adams, and I'm

806
00:33:31,908 --> 00:33:34,268
Speaker 10: shocked by how much I love it, how obvious it

807
00:33:34,308 --> 00:33:37,548
Speaker 10: seems now in hindsight. And the Rams are hilarious. They

808
00:33:37,628 --> 00:33:40,428
Speaker 10: finish every year saying, all right, it's time to rebuild.

809
00:33:40,468 --> 00:33:41,788
Speaker 10: We put all of our chips in. Now we have

810
00:33:41,828 --> 00:33:43,748
Speaker 10: to lick our wounds and then this actually, we're gonna

811
00:33:43,748 --> 00:33:46,228
Speaker 10: try and win another Super Bowl. So hey Stafford, you're

812
00:33:46,228 --> 00:33:48,348
Speaker 10: coming back in DeVante Adams and you're coming back to

813
00:33:48,708 --> 00:33:50,628
Speaker 10: that's the Cooper Cups locker. You can go over there

814
00:33:50,628 --> 00:33:52,548
Speaker 10: and put all your stuff there. I'm pumped for this.

815
00:33:52,788 --> 00:33:55,388
Speaker 10: There's no routes that Davante Adams cannot run.

816
00:33:55,788 --> 00:33:57,908
Speaker 6: Personally. I only have two route runners.

817
00:33:57,668 --> 00:33:59,428
Speaker 10: In the history of the NFL that can run routes

818
00:33:59,468 --> 00:34:02,428
Speaker 10: better than Davonte Adams and Matthew Stafford is gonna find

819
00:34:02,428 --> 00:34:06,388
Speaker 10: his guy wherever he is, soapub form and that old

820
00:34:06,428 --> 00:34:08,428
Speaker 10: wide receiver, and DeVante is going to have a whole

821
00:34:08,468 --> 00:34:10,868
Speaker 10: lot of youthful energy with Poka Nakua line up on

822
00:34:10,868 --> 00:34:11,868
Speaker 10: the opposite side of the field.

823
00:34:11,908 --> 00:34:14,228
Speaker 3: Okay, I do the reverse when it comes to shocked,

824
00:34:15,148 --> 00:34:17,548
Speaker 3: I took the bait and I was really into the

825
00:34:17,668 --> 00:34:21,188
Speaker 3: selectively aggressive nature that the Dallas Cowboys were supposed to

826
00:34:21,228 --> 00:34:23,348
Speaker 3: be in fre agency. Why am I shocked that we

827
00:34:23,468 --> 00:34:26,708
Speaker 3: have not seen their name on any list or any reports? Peter,

828
00:34:26,828 --> 00:34:29,308
Speaker 3: what is going on? What direction do the Cowboys want

829
00:34:29,348 --> 00:34:31,548
Speaker 3: to do here? Because in their division, they have the

830
00:34:31,588 --> 00:34:34,388
Speaker 3: Super Bowl winning team in their division, they have an

831
00:34:34,468 --> 00:34:38,108
Speaker 3: up and coming, very fancy and sexy franchise and the Commanders,

832
00:34:38,268 --> 00:34:40,748
Speaker 3: and yet we still haven't he even heard whispers of

833
00:34:40,828 --> 00:34:42,788
Speaker 3: the Cowboys and what they are supposed to be doing.

834
00:34:43,188 --> 00:34:45,188
Speaker 7: And you have to think that the Commanders are going

835
00:34:45,228 --> 00:34:46,628
Speaker 7: to be a team that everyone wants to go to.

836
00:34:46,628 --> 00:34:48,428
Speaker 7: You're going to have to think that the Eagles, though

837
00:34:48,468 --> 00:34:50,388
Speaker 7: they might lose some free agent talent, are going to

838
00:34:50,388 --> 00:34:51,548
Speaker 7: be right back where they were. And you have to

839
00:34:51,548 --> 00:34:53,428
Speaker 7: think the Giants are going to be better than a three

840
00:34:53,508 --> 00:34:55,428
Speaker 7: win team next year when they get some semblance of

841
00:34:55,428 --> 00:34:58,268
Speaker 7: a quarterback. So what are the Cowboys doing? I don't know,

842
00:34:58,348 --> 00:35:02,108
Speaker 7: selectively aggressive to now nothing yet, but twelve o'clock will start.

843
00:35:02,148 --> 00:35:04,308
Speaker 7: Remember they brought back Osa. That was a big move.

844
00:35:04,628 --> 00:35:06,268
Speaker 4: I think they got him at a really good deal.

845
00:35:06,068 --> 00:35:08,028
Speaker 7: Too, because if he had hit free agency as one

846
00:35:08,028 --> 00:35:09,548
Speaker 7: of the top pass rushers, I think he would have

847
00:35:09,548 --> 00:35:10,428
Speaker 7: made a lot of money.

848
00:35:10,588 --> 00:35:11,908
Speaker 4: But all together, we're.

849
00:35:11,708 --> 00:35:13,788
Speaker 7: Looking there and it's like Mike couldn't get his new

850
00:35:13,828 --> 00:35:16,748
Speaker 7: deal yet there's still questions all over that offense. And

851
00:35:16,868 --> 00:35:19,468
Speaker 7: they have a new coach and Brian Schottenheimer who's from

852
00:35:19,508 --> 00:35:22,668
Speaker 7: the same offense as last year's head coach Mike McCarthy.

853
00:35:22,788 --> 00:35:24,588
Speaker 7: So I don't have a ton of optimism that the

854
00:35:24,588 --> 00:35:26,548
Speaker 7: Cowboys are tarking. They take the league up by storm,

855
00:35:26,588 --> 00:35:28,708
Speaker 7: then again you get a healthy Dack. Although I saw

856
00:35:28,708 --> 00:35:30,628
Speaker 7: the video online there are a bunch of Eagles fans

857
00:35:30,628 --> 00:35:33,428
Speaker 7: on a bachelorette party and Bahamas just yelling go Eagles, Go,

858
00:35:33,508 --> 00:35:34,388
Speaker 7: Eagles in his face.

859
00:35:34,428 --> 00:35:37,348
Speaker 8: So Dak's walking down a hotel, he's on his personal time,

860
00:35:37,428 --> 00:35:40,228
Speaker 8: having a wonderful vacation and do you have confirmation as

861
00:35:40,228 --> 00:35:41,548
Speaker 8: a bachelorette party, it does look.

862
00:35:41,508 --> 00:35:43,348
Speaker 6: Like they might.

863
00:35:43,388 --> 00:35:47,788
Speaker 7: They might be from South Jersey and they started the gee,

864
00:35:48,228 --> 00:35:49,668
Speaker 7: come on, like you won the Super Bowl.

865
00:35:49,748 --> 00:35:50,748
Speaker 9: Let the man have a vacation.

866
00:35:51,468 --> 00:35:53,668
Speaker 3: Can I have a very fond memory from the show

867
00:35:53,668 --> 00:35:56,788
Speaker 3: A couple of years back, we physically played musical Chairs,

868
00:35:56,948 --> 00:35:59,108
Speaker 3: and Peter said, this seems like a really good excuse

869
00:35:59,108 --> 00:36:01,308
Speaker 3: for Jamie just be able to elbow everybody. That's how

870
00:36:01,308 --> 00:36:03,788
Speaker 3: it goes when you play musical chairs. Guys, so Ian

871
00:36:03,828 --> 00:36:07,548
Speaker 3: Rappaborg back in here. Quarterbacks are still on the board

872
00:36:07,588 --> 00:36:09,868
Speaker 3: available for teams. Who are they elbowing to get out

873
00:36:09,908 --> 00:36:12,308
Speaker 3: of position? Who do we still watch playing musical chairs today?

874
00:36:12,428 --> 00:36:14,828
Speaker 5: It's going to be an eventful day, a fascinating day.

875
00:36:14,868 --> 00:36:16,868
Speaker 5: In the fact that Twitter is currently down means people

876
00:36:16,908 --> 00:36:19,508
Speaker 5: should really watch the network to see where everybody goes.

877
00:36:19,588 --> 00:36:21,148
Speaker 4: Let's start with some of the quarterbacks.

878
00:36:21,428 --> 00:36:24,188
Speaker 5: We'll start with Daniel Jones, who is still a quarterback

879
00:36:24,228 --> 00:36:27,148
Speaker 5: for the Minnesota Vikings, a pending free agent. Came on

880
00:36:27,228 --> 00:36:28,988
Speaker 5: mid season, was on the practice club. I think it

881
00:36:29,028 --> 00:36:30,188
Speaker 5: really impressed them with the kind.

882
00:36:30,108 --> 00:36:30,788
Speaker 4: Of work he did.

883
00:36:31,188 --> 00:36:33,628
Speaker 5: He seems to have a decision to make, and from

884
00:36:33,628 --> 00:36:37,068
Speaker 5: what I understand, his decision is essentially stay with the

885
00:36:37,108 --> 00:36:39,948
Speaker 5: Minnesota Vikings for a really nice deal that would be

886
00:36:39,988 --> 00:36:43,148
Speaker 5: sort of bridge starter, slash, backup, slash whenever JJ McCarthy

887
00:36:43,228 --> 00:36:45,268
Speaker 5: is ready or go to a team like the Indianapolis

888
00:36:45,348 --> 00:36:48,188
Speaker 5: Cult or perhaps the Cleveland Browns to go in and

889
00:36:48,428 --> 00:36:49,508
Speaker 5: try to become the starter.

890
00:36:49,628 --> 00:36:50,908
Speaker 4: He's got really good options.

891
00:36:51,068 --> 00:36:53,668
Speaker 5: I would expect the decision on Daniel Jones today certainly

892
00:36:53,708 --> 00:36:56,388
Speaker 5: one of the biggest things we're watching. The Aaron Rodgers

893
00:36:56,468 --> 00:37:00,108
Speaker 5: situation bears watching as well. He's been in conversations with

894
00:37:00,188 --> 00:37:03,628
Speaker 5: the New York Giants. I'm potentially becoming their Quarterback's been good,

895
00:37:03,628 --> 00:37:07,148
Speaker 5: productive conver sations. But whether or not Justin Fields ends

896
00:37:07,228 --> 00:37:09,588
Speaker 5: up going back to Pittsburgh or whether he lands with

897
00:37:09,628 --> 00:37:11,748
Speaker 5: the Jets will obviously go a long way and deciding

898
00:37:12,108 --> 00:37:13,748
Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers as well.

899
00:37:14,348 --> 00:37:15,588
Speaker 4: If these Steelers do.

900
00:37:15,548 --> 00:37:17,748
Speaker 5: Not end up with Justin Fields, I would expect them

901
00:37:17,788 --> 00:37:19,308
Speaker 5: to have interest in Rogers.

902
00:37:19,588 --> 00:37:21,428
Speaker 4: We'll see which way that goes.

903
00:37:21,468 --> 00:37:24,508
Speaker 5: And of course Sam Donald probably the biggest quarterback available.

904
00:37:25,068 --> 00:37:29,668
Speaker 5: It has been after seconds after they traded Gino Smith

905
00:37:29,708 --> 00:37:31,468
Speaker 5: to the Las Vegas Raiders that have seemed clear that

906
00:37:31,508 --> 00:37:34,308
Speaker 5: Sam Donald has been a favorite. So Lanta and Seattle,

907
00:37:34,348 --> 00:37:36,468
Speaker 5: I will keep that right there. So those are the

908
00:37:36,548 --> 00:37:37,788
Speaker 5: quarterbacks we were watching today.

909
00:37:37,868 --> 00:37:40,428
Speaker 3: Okay, what about other guys? Just general, I have a

910
00:37:40,428 --> 00:37:42,908
Speaker 3: whole list stabled. I've crumpled it up seventeen times. I

911
00:37:42,908 --> 00:37:44,508
Speaker 3: got guys that are in the red and the black.

912
00:37:44,668 --> 00:37:46,388
Speaker 3: What are we doing here? Who else is available that

913
00:37:46,428 --> 00:37:47,308
Speaker 3: we want to keep an eye on?

914
00:37:47,708 --> 00:37:49,308
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know where your colors are going. I

915
00:37:49,308 --> 00:37:51,668
Speaker 5: think red is good. Black beings assigned would be my

916
00:37:51,748 --> 00:37:54,348
Speaker 5: guess if I was doing that. I'm just saying maybe

917
00:37:54,388 --> 00:37:56,268
Speaker 5: red means hot free agents. We'll go through some of

918
00:37:56,268 --> 00:37:59,628
Speaker 5: the hot free agents. Milton Williams, the defensive tackle for

919
00:37:59,628 --> 00:38:02,508
Speaker 5: the Philadelphia Eagles, one of the hottest and biggest name

920
00:38:02,588 --> 00:38:04,348
Speaker 5: free agents out there, going to land a huge deal.

921
00:38:04,388 --> 00:38:05,468
Speaker 4: I would expect him.

922
00:38:05,628 --> 00:38:08,188
Speaker 5: To get off the board early, likely in excess of

923
00:38:08,228 --> 00:38:11,748
Speaker 5: twenty million dollars. One of, if not the best and

924
00:38:11,788 --> 00:38:15,948
Speaker 5: most best available defensive players. Dio od Ingbo from the

925
00:38:15,988 --> 00:38:19,068
Speaker 5: Indianapolis Colts, not a household name, not at all, going

926
00:38:19,148 --> 00:38:21,628
Speaker 5: to be extremely rich, one of the top edges on

927
00:38:21,668 --> 00:38:24,068
Speaker 5: the market. There are several others. I put Josh Webb

928
00:38:24,068 --> 00:38:26,868
Speaker 5: with the Philadelphia Eagles among them as well, But Dio

929
00:38:26,988 --> 00:38:28,908
Speaker 5: is a name who is going to get absolutely paid,

930
00:38:28,908 --> 00:38:31,868
Speaker 5: and I think people probably should learn it also, probably

931
00:38:31,948 --> 00:38:34,268
Speaker 5: learn how to pronounce it. And then Chris Godwin, the

932
00:38:34,348 --> 00:38:37,348
Speaker 5: Tampa Bay Bucceteers receiver, one of the biggest names out there.

933
00:38:37,388 --> 00:38:39,388
Speaker 5: The Bucks have been trying to retain him. I know

934
00:38:39,508 --> 00:38:42,308
Speaker 5: he's going to have a huge market elsewhere. Several teams

935
00:38:42,508 --> 00:38:45,828
Speaker 5: in need of a receiver. It's not a great receiver market.

936
00:38:45,828 --> 00:38:47,748
Speaker 5: We saw two go off the board yesterday with DK

937
00:38:47,868 --> 00:38:50,508
Speaker 5: and Devout the Adams. So Chris Godwin another one who

938
00:38:50,588 --> 00:38:52,708
Speaker 5: situation should be handled early this morning.

939
00:38:52,788 --> 00:38:55,268
Speaker 3: Okay, X or Twitter might be down, rap Sheet, but

940
00:38:55,308 --> 00:38:57,548
Speaker 3: we know no one can unplug you on a day

941
00:38:57,668 --> 00:39:00,348
Speaker 3: like today. It is well, that's.

942
00:39:00,108 --> 00:39:01,668
Speaker 2: Why he just keep it right here.

943
00:39:01,708 --> 00:39:03,508
Speaker 3: Keep it right here, rap sheet. Thank you very much,

944
00:39:03,748 --> 00:39:05,668
Speaker 3: Go get some cap. We'll check back in with you, Peter.

945
00:39:05,788 --> 00:39:07,388
Speaker 3: He just said a lot of names, a lot of

946
00:39:07,388 --> 00:39:10,748
Speaker 3: guys available. Are you watching anyone in particular? Did anything

947
00:39:10,788 --> 00:39:13,308
Speaker 3: there tickle your fancy with the coming hours and free agents?

948
00:39:13,348 --> 00:39:17,068
Speaker 7: See off, Jamie, great job today hosting this show. Ian

949
00:39:17,148 --> 00:39:20,108
Speaker 7: Rapport is doing a fantastic job navigating all this. I

950
00:39:20,108 --> 00:39:22,548
Speaker 7: would say, if you ever wondered about the NFL strength

951
00:39:22,548 --> 00:39:24,308
Speaker 7: and power, the fact that we could shut down X

952
00:39:24,308 --> 00:39:26,148
Speaker 7: so that you can be watching Good Morning Football instead

953
00:39:26,148 --> 00:39:28,188
Speaker 7: of just going to Twitter. Yeah, it just shows you

954
00:39:28,268 --> 00:39:31,108
Speaker 7: how big the NFL is, and we'll talk big business.

955
00:39:31,108 --> 00:39:34,108
Speaker 6: It's stay down forever. This is it. Stay down, Stay

956
00:39:34,148 --> 00:39:35,468
Speaker 6: down and go get install next.

957
00:39:35,628 --> 00:39:39,228
Speaker 7: My guy Ian Rapport mentioned it, and Mike Garaffollo mentioned

958
00:39:39,228 --> 00:39:40,068
Speaker 7: it last week to me.

959
00:39:40,108 --> 00:39:41,468
Speaker 4: But I'm gonna double back.

960
00:39:41,308 --> 00:39:41,788
Speaker 6: On a name.

961
00:39:42,068 --> 00:39:45,028
Speaker 2: Dio. Oh damn Ingo.

962
00:39:45,028 --> 00:39:45,708
Speaker 4: I said it wrong.

963
00:39:45,828 --> 00:39:49,108
Speaker 7: Dio o Dingmo out of the Indianapolis Colts.

964
00:39:49,468 --> 00:39:50,588
Speaker 4: He was at a Vanderbilt.

965
00:39:50,588 --> 00:39:52,628
Speaker 7: This is a guy who I remember exactly where I

966
00:39:52,708 --> 00:39:55,588
Speaker 7: was when Olivier Vernon signed his monster deal with the

967
00:39:55,588 --> 00:39:57,228
Speaker 7: Giants on the first day at rains you and I

968
00:39:57,268 --> 00:40:00,668
Speaker 7: was like, Olivier Vernon got that. I remember where I

969
00:40:00,708 --> 00:40:04,028
Speaker 7: was when Christian Kirk signed a deal with the Jaguars

970
00:40:04,068 --> 00:40:06,308
Speaker 7: that gonna pay him like eighteen million dollars a year.

971
00:40:06,308 --> 00:40:08,988
Speaker 4: We're like, Christian Current got it. This is gonna be

972
00:40:09,028 --> 00:40:09,308
Speaker 4: the guy.

973
00:40:09,348 --> 00:40:11,788
Speaker 7: I'm already shut out Garafolo for this because he was

974
00:40:11,828 --> 00:40:12,228
Speaker 7: big on it.

975
00:40:12,308 --> 00:40:12,668
Speaker 6: Last week.

976
00:40:12,668 --> 00:40:14,188
Speaker 4: I had him on my podcast and he was like,

977
00:40:14,468 --> 00:40:16,788
Speaker 4: just wait till you see the number that Dio pulls in.

978
00:40:17,348 --> 00:40:18,468
Speaker 2: This is full name.

979
00:40:19,828 --> 00:40:25,508
Speaker 7: Timmy Dio Jordan o'dangbo, a defensive end Indianapolis Cults You've

980
00:40:25,588 --> 00:40:28,068
Speaker 7: probably not been following his career since out of Vanderbilt.

981
00:40:28,108 --> 00:40:28,988
Speaker 4: But this guy might.

982
00:40:28,868 --> 00:40:32,468
Speaker 7: Make wild money today, and you're gonna be like, what

983
00:40:32,988 --> 00:40:35,628
Speaker 7: that's gonna happen Because of the priority on edge rushers

984
00:40:35,668 --> 00:40:37,788
Speaker 7: and the dearth of talent that's going to be free agents.

985
00:40:37,828 --> 00:40:39,868
Speaker 4: He is one of them. Twenty five years old.

986
00:40:40,268 --> 00:40:40,628
Speaker 6: Dio.

987
00:40:40,908 --> 00:40:43,508
Speaker 7: Congratulations, you're gonna get some do today.

988
00:40:43,828 --> 00:40:44,028
Speaker 12: Nice.

989
00:40:45,788 --> 00:40:47,948
Speaker 9: I'm some calories on that same do.

990
00:40:49,348 --> 00:40:50,628
Speaker 6: You do a lot of things very well.

991
00:40:50,668 --> 00:40:51,668
Speaker 9: It's not your strong.

992
00:40:51,628 --> 00:40:52,948
Speaker 4: I hate pronouncing name.

993
00:40:53,028 --> 00:40:54,388
Speaker 9: We all have our wearable at it.

994
00:40:54,508 --> 00:40:57,228
Speaker 8: We all have our weaknesses. Listen, some of these names

995
00:40:57,268 --> 00:40:58,748
Speaker 8: are when we hit a lot. Next couple of days,

996
00:40:58,748 --> 00:41:02,148
Speaker 8: I'm thinking of free agencies passed. We are still sitting

997
00:41:02,148 --> 00:41:04,148
Speaker 8: there as a show talking about Kenny Galladay. A few

998
00:41:04,188 --> 00:41:07,228
Speaker 8: years we broke the record, Kenny Galladay, this wide receiver.

999
00:41:07,428 --> 00:41:09,708
Speaker 8: Oh my god, we spent hours talking to me. I'm

1000
00:41:09,748 --> 00:41:11,548
Speaker 8: not sure where he is now. I just wanted to

1001
00:41:11,588 --> 00:41:13,868
Speaker 8: close the loop on something we've been talking a lot about.

1002
00:41:13,908 --> 00:41:17,108
Speaker 8: DK metcalf joining the Steelers with George Pickens, the chemistry

1003
00:41:17,108 --> 00:41:19,388
Speaker 8: there or lack thereof, And then we stumbled upon this

1004
00:41:19,548 --> 00:41:21,948
Speaker 8: idea that also the number fourteen so right off the bat,

1005
00:41:21,948 --> 00:41:23,548
Speaker 8: you were in a like a lover's quarrel because you

1006
00:41:23,588 --> 00:41:25,948
Speaker 8: have the same jersey number. I thought I solved it

1007
00:41:26,028 --> 00:41:30,468
Speaker 8: because while Pickens was number one in college, DK was fourteen.

1008
00:41:30,548 --> 00:41:33,508
Speaker 8: So all right, fine, easy, George Pickens changed to number one.

1009
00:41:33,588 --> 00:41:34,268
Speaker 6: It's done.

1010
00:41:34,748 --> 00:41:37,668
Speaker 8: Many Steelers fans came out of the woodorck and said, no, no, no,

1011
00:41:37,828 --> 00:41:40,268
Speaker 8: the Steelers don't give out jersey number one.

1012
00:41:40,348 --> 00:41:41,708
Speaker 9: And I'm going to say something you're not supposed to

1013
00:41:41,708 --> 00:41:42,188
Speaker 9: say on TV.

1014
00:41:42,468 --> 00:41:43,828
Speaker 6: I didn't know that. I didn't know.

1015
00:41:44,028 --> 00:41:47,068
Speaker 8: There's a policy that they have different attributions to. But

1016
00:41:47,108 --> 00:41:49,228
Speaker 8: it's the same reason justin Fields went to number two.

1017
00:41:49,268 --> 00:41:53,468
Speaker 8: But number one is kind of unofficially, unwritten, retired in Pittsburgh,

1018
00:41:53,508 --> 00:41:55,908
Speaker 8: and in fact, no one has worn it regularly for years.

1019
00:41:56,228 --> 00:41:58,588
Speaker 4: So that solution is out the door.

1020
00:41:58,828 --> 00:42:01,028
Speaker 9: You just have to go with good old fashioned chemistry,

1021
00:42:01,028 --> 00:42:02,428
Speaker 9: and we'll say his name one more time.

1022
00:42:02,868 --> 00:42:07,428
Speaker 8: Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver coach Zach Azani is now my favorite.

1023
00:42:07,468 --> 00:42:09,428
Speaker 8: When Peter does just wants to watch new head coaches

1024
00:42:09,708 --> 00:42:12,148
Speaker 8: Zach Kazani. If you go through this season and the

1025
00:42:12,188 --> 00:42:14,788
Speaker 8: wide receiver room is not physically inflamed by the end,

1026
00:42:14,828 --> 00:42:15,228
Speaker 8: of the year.

1027
00:42:15,548 --> 00:42:17,028
Speaker 9: You should be the next head coach.

1028
00:42:17,108 --> 00:42:17,868
Speaker 6: I love you, my man.

1029
00:42:17,908 --> 00:42:19,628
Speaker 10: I got your back and get to work. Let's go,

1030
00:42:19,948 --> 00:42:23,108
Speaker 10: Robert Splane. The linebacker market is drying up quickly. A

1031
00:42:23,148 --> 00:42:25,548
Speaker 10: lot of guys expected to hit free agency are not

1032
00:42:25,628 --> 00:42:27,628
Speaker 10: hitting free agency. If you need an off ball linebacker,

1033
00:42:27,708 --> 00:42:31,268
Speaker 10: Robert Splane, I'm looking at Talanoa whu Funga because yes,

1034
00:42:31,348 --> 00:42:33,868
Speaker 10: twenty twenty two, that All Pro season has only played

1035
00:42:33,868 --> 00:42:37,628
Speaker 10: seventeen games since that guy can ball, Troy Paulamalu reincarnated,

1036
00:42:37,788 --> 00:42:40,148
Speaker 10: and lastly Jason Pinnock. If you need a big nickel,

1037
00:42:40,148 --> 00:42:42,308
Speaker 10: the guy who can do everything from the line of

1038
00:42:42,308 --> 00:42:44,388
Speaker 10: scrimmage back to the free safety, that is your guy.

1039
00:42:44,508 --> 00:42:47,468
Speaker 3: It's very simple. It's just Odengbo. It's it's just very

1040
00:42:47,468 --> 00:42:49,188
Speaker 3: it's clean, like you don't have to. I don't think

1041
00:42:49,228 --> 00:42:50,708
Speaker 3: you dip in and out of it the way. So

1042
00:42:50,788 --> 00:42:53,868
Speaker 3: goes Talanoa Hufunga, Dio Odengbo. All right, we got this

1043
00:42:54,028 --> 00:42:57,148
Speaker 3: on GMFB. Right, I got Dio. We love you, go

1044
00:42:57,228 --> 00:42:59,988
Speaker 3: get your dough GMFB free agency. What we enjoy
