He 7 00:00:30,188 --> 00:00:31,868 Speaker 3: restructured his contract. 8 00:00:31,868 --> 00:00:32,828 Speaker 2: I'm not going anywhere. 9 00:00:33,468 --> 00:00:35,988 Speaker 3: He was asked by a fan on x why he 10 00:00:36,028 --> 00:00:37,788 Speaker 3: did it, to which he replied. 11 00:00:37,948 --> 00:00:38,548 Speaker 4: I want to win. 12 00:00:38,788 --> 00:00:43,188 Speaker 3: It's going to take more than just myself.

Actually, 25 00:01:12,188 --> 00:01:14,388 Speaker 5: the expectations are low. There's a new coach, there's a 26 00:01:14,388 --> 00:01:17,388 Speaker 5: new future, and what are the Cowboys need to do. Guys, 27 00:01:17,428 --> 00:01:19,348 Speaker 5: I'm going to really impress you here. This is a 28 00:01:19,628 --> 00:01:22,268 Speaker 5: twenty dollars bill. This is my per diem I get 29 00:01:22,268 --> 00:01:26,388 Speaker 5: from the network. Okay, the Cowboys have literally millions of these. 30 00:01:26,668 --> 00:01:27,628 Speaker 6: What you want to do is. 31 00:01:27,588 --> 00:01:31,148 Speaker 5: You want to take them, hand them to young athletes 32 00:01:31,188 --> 00:01:34,268 Speaker 5: in exchange for goods and services. Okay, don't burn it, 33 00:01:34,908 --> 00:01:37,068 Speaker 5: invest it, spend it. 34 00:01:37,148 --> 00:01:38,068 Speaker 4: For the love of. 35 00:01:38,028 --> 00:01:40,628 Speaker 5: God, you can't take it with you, Jerry. We know 36 00:01:40,668 --> 00:01:43,428 Speaker 5: what happened last year. They were the lowest spenders in 37 00:01:43,508 --> 00:01:47,468 Speaker 5: free agency by far. They had barely half of what 38 00:01:47,508 --> 00:01:49,268 Speaker 5: the next lowest spenders did. 39 00:01:49,468 --> 00:01:50,548 Speaker 7: They just sat there. 40 00:01:50,348 --> 00:01:52,108 Speaker 5: And they hoarded it all, and then they had a 41 00:01:52,188 --> 00:01:54,868 Speaker 5: terrible season and extended their streak of not even making 42 00:01:54,908 --> 00:01:55,788 Speaker 5: it to a title game. 43 00:01:56,148 --> 00:01:58,188 Speaker 6: Let's look at the history, though. You think this is 44 00:01:58,228 --> 00:01:59,508 Speaker 6: the year free agents, let's go. 45 00:01:59,588 --> 00:02:00,788 Speaker 7: Let's let me make splashes. 46 00:02:01,308 --> 00:02:05,188 Speaker 5: In the last fifteen years, fifteen years else Cowboys have 47 00:02:05,268 --> 00:02:08,348 Speaker 5: signed one free agent who made a Pro Bowl. That 48 00:02:08,388 --> 00:02:10,068 Speaker 5: free agent was Brian Anger. 49 00:02:10,228 --> 00:02:11,468 Speaker 6: Guys, he plays punter. 50 00:02:11,948 --> 00:02:12,428 Speaker 4: That's it. 51 00:02:12,628 --> 00:02:15,508 Speaker 5: Fifteen years Pro Bowl free agent punter. This is in 52 00:02:15,588 --> 00:02:18,868 Speaker 5: the now post Saquon era, in which their arch rival 53 00:02:19,308 --> 00:02:20,908 Speaker 5: just won the Super Bowl. I have signed a free 54 00:02:20,948 --> 00:02:23,388 Speaker 5: agent two thousand and seven. Then you have to go 55 00:02:23,428 --> 00:02:25,428 Speaker 5: back to Leonard Davis as a free agent you want 56 00:02:25,428 --> 00:02:26,988 Speaker 5: to look in for a free agent home run. He 57 00:02:26,988 --> 00:02:29,148 Speaker 5: played four of his seven contract years and he's a 58 00:02:29,188 --> 00:02:31,348 Speaker 5: guard before now you have to go to Tara Loans 59 00:02:31,468 --> 00:02:33,628 Speaker 5: and guys. That's like I'm just getting out of college 60 00:02:33,668 --> 00:02:34,108 Speaker 5: at this point. 61 00:02:34,148 --> 00:02:35,548 Speaker 6: This is how long we're talking about. 62 00:02:35,548 --> 00:02:37,988 Speaker 5: As we see these fans who just watched the damn 63 00:02:38,068 --> 00:02:40,588 Speaker 5: Eagles win the Super Bowl and the Commanders have a 64 00:02:40,668 --> 00:02:41,588 Speaker 5: dream season. 65 00:02:42,068 --> 00:02:43,668 Speaker 6: Jerry, let's go. 66 00:02:43,908 --> 00:02:46,868 Speaker 5: He has told this show that he said in his 67 00:02:46,988 --> 00:02:49,868 Speaker 5: Jerry Charms that my hand doesn't cramp. 68 00:02:49,668 --> 00:02:52,508 Speaker 6: Up when I write checks. Well, maybe we should check out. 69 00:02:52,508 --> 00:02:54,348 Speaker 5: I think maybe Jerry might need some elector lights or 70 00:02:54,388 --> 00:02:56,548 Speaker 5: like some bananas or something like that, because. 71 00:02:56,428 --> 00:02:57,428 Speaker 7: The hand is cramping. 72 00:02:57,548 --> 00:02:59,428 Speaker 5: And if you didn't do it last year, and you 73 00:02:59,468 --> 00:03:02,108 Speaker 5: haven't signed a Pro Bowl free agent since a punter, 74 00:03:02,868 --> 00:03:04,228 Speaker 5: what are we waiting for? 75 00:03:04,628 --> 00:03:07,068 Speaker 6: The Cowboys? Are this elderly person. 76 00:03:06,788 --> 00:03:07,228 Speaker 7: In your life? 77 00:03:07,268 --> 00:03:10,428 Speaker 5: Do you know one who they're terrified to spend any 78 00:03:10,428 --> 00:03:11,668 Speaker 5: money and they don't even want to go out and 79 00:03:11,708 --> 00:03:13,548 Speaker 5: buy a sandwich, let alone go on a vacation. 80 00:03:13,668 --> 00:03:16,748 Speaker 6: You're like, you've saved your whole life. We checked the finances. 81 00:03:16,788 --> 00:03:18,188 Speaker 6: You're good, You're comfortable. 82 00:03:18,308 --> 00:03:20,108 Speaker 5: No, I just I think I should just stay here 83 00:03:20,148 --> 00:03:23,228 Speaker 5: and set on my couch and watch reruns Cowboys get 84 00:03:23,268 --> 00:03:25,668 Speaker 5: out there live. The wide receiver says, I can't do 85 00:03:25,708 --> 00:03:28,828 Speaker 5: it alone, and he's right, go fight fire with fire. 86 00:03:29,148 --> 00:03:31,108 Speaker 5: And I can't believe I have to tell the Dallas Cowboys, 87 00:03:31,148 --> 00:03:36,908 Speaker 5: America's team, spend some money. Go treat yourself. You've earned it. 88 00:03:36,908 --> 00:03:38,308 Speaker 5: It will work, give it a try. 89 00:03:39,188 --> 00:03:39,388 Speaker 4: Yeah. 90 00:03:39,988 --> 00:03:42,908 Speaker 8: So a couple of weeks ago, Cowboys executive vice president 91 00:03:42,948 --> 00:03:44,508 Speaker 8: Stephen Jones comes out and says, we're going to be 92 00:03:44,548 --> 00:03:46,788 Speaker 8: selectively aggressive this offseason. 93 00:03:46,948 --> 00:03:47,388 Speaker 4: I like that. 94 00:03:47,428 --> 00:03:49,268 Speaker 8: I think that's a great approach to the off season. 95 00:03:49,348 --> 00:03:51,228 Speaker 8: Now they've already started doing that a little bit. They 96 00:03:51,268 --> 00:03:54,228 Speaker 8: restructure CD LAMB. They just restructured Dak Prescott as well, 97 00:03:54,268 --> 00:03:54,868 Speaker 8: so they opened up. 98 00:03:54,788 --> 00:03:56,588 Speaker 4: A little bit money. But I'm with Kyle. I think 99 00:03:56,628 --> 00:03:57,708 Speaker 4: they need to spend a lot of money. 100 00:03:57,708 --> 00:03:59,468 Speaker 8: But where they need to spend it is in house 101 00:03:59,508 --> 00:04:01,268 Speaker 8: instead of going to free agency. You need to keep 102 00:04:01,308 --> 00:04:03,508 Speaker 8: the core guys that you have on your roster right now. 103 00:04:03,548 --> 00:04:05,548 Speaker 8: If you want to win in my opinion, what does 104 00:04:05,588 --> 00:04:07,188 Speaker 8: that look like. Well, they already did one of those things. 105 00:04:07,188 --> 00:04:09,708 Speaker 8: Osa Odiggi zoo wall I love that. Four years eighty 106 00:04:09,708 --> 00:04:12,868 Speaker 8: million very well. Deserve a great d tackle DeMarco Farr. 107 00:04:12,868 --> 00:04:14,228 Speaker 8: He is a problem up front. 108 00:04:14,388 --> 00:04:15,028 Speaker 4: He is a. 109 00:04:14,908 --> 00:04:17,388 Speaker 8: Disruptive player, and if you're a defensive tackle, that's the 110 00:04:17,428 --> 00:04:20,068 Speaker 8: definition that you want. Very disruptive. He can stop the run, 111 00:04:20,068 --> 00:04:21,988 Speaker 8: but he can also get after the quarterback. The next 112 00:04:22,068 --> 00:04:24,188 Speaker 8: guy that you need to focus on, I think everyone agrees, 113 00:04:24,228 --> 00:04:26,308 Speaker 8: is Michael Parsons. He wants to be extended. You need 114 00:04:26,348 --> 00:04:28,068 Speaker 8: to extend him. You need to pay him. He has 115 00:04:28,108 --> 00:04:29,908 Speaker 8: a staple on your defense. You need to find a 116 00:04:29,908 --> 00:04:31,948 Speaker 8: way to keep him, keep him in Dallas for a 117 00:04:32,068 --> 00:04:33,908 Speaker 8: very long time, because if you want to win games, 118 00:04:33,988 --> 00:04:35,828 Speaker 8: you need guys like number eleven on your roster. 119 00:04:35,908 --> 00:04:37,948 Speaker 4: You need Miles Garrett, you need TJ. Watsh. 120 00:04:38,108 --> 00:04:40,068 Speaker 8: You need some of the best defenders in football on 121 00:04:40,108 --> 00:04:43,028 Speaker 8: your team. The next guy for me is, in. 122 00:04:42,908 --> 00:04:44,788 Speaker 4: My opinion, one of their top priority guys. 123 00:04:44,788 --> 00:04:46,268 Speaker 8: He's been there for a couple of years. They drafted 124 00:04:46,308 --> 00:04:48,508 Speaker 8: him back in twenty seventeen. He's a homegrown guy. But 125 00:04:48,588 --> 00:04:51,668 Speaker 8: that's defensive back Jordan Lewis. I thought he played phenomenal 126 00:04:51,748 --> 00:04:54,268 Speaker 8: last year. He was very good at that nickel position right, 127 00:04:54,348 --> 00:04:56,868 Speaker 8: and he's had such versatility. He can cover the tight end, 128 00:04:56,988 --> 00:04:59,188 Speaker 8: he can cover the slot receiver. He's great in the 129 00:04:59,268 --> 00:05:01,548 Speaker 8: run game. He is a staple on your defense, and 130 00:05:01,548 --> 00:05:03,228 Speaker 8: they need to keep him around. He hasn't had a 131 00:05:03,228 --> 00:05:06,028 Speaker 8: payday yet. He's been playing a lot on on veteran contracts, 132 00:05:06,028 --> 00:05:07,668 Speaker 8: and he's been in the league now for eight years. 133 00:05:07,708 --> 00:05:09,108 Speaker 8: It's time to pay him. So those are a couple 134 00:05:09,148 --> 00:05:10,868 Speaker 8: of guys for me that they need to focus on. 135 00:05:11,148 --> 00:05:12,828 Speaker 8: Out of those three, they've already paid one of them, 136 00:05:12,908 --> 00:05:14,268 Speaker 8: but they still need to go out and pay Parsons 137 00:05:14,308 --> 00:05:18,268 Speaker 8: and Lewis. In my opinion, I'm with Kyle on the Commanders. 138 00:05:18,308 --> 00:05:20,268 Speaker 8: Just playing the NFC Championship game against Eagles. Two of 139 00:05:20,308 --> 00:05:22,508 Speaker 8: your rivals, one won the Super Bowl, one is supposed 140 00:05:22,548 --> 00:05:23,348 Speaker 8: to be in a rebuild. 141 00:05:23,548 --> 00:05:23,668 Speaker 7: Right. 142 00:05:23,708 --> 00:05:25,348 Speaker 8: If I'm the Cowboys, We're seven and ten and we 143 00:05:25,388 --> 00:05:27,788 Speaker 8: missed the playoffs. And I know the years before that 144 00:05:27,788 --> 00:05:29,708 Speaker 8: that they have been to the playoffs, and last year 145 00:05:29,748 --> 00:05:31,748 Speaker 8: they had some injuries. But it just feels like every 146 00:05:31,828 --> 00:05:34,908 Speaker 8: year the Cowboys over promise and under delivered, Right, and 147 00:05:35,188 --> 00:05:36,428 Speaker 8: the fans are starting to get tired. 148 00:05:36,468 --> 00:05:37,428 Speaker 4: They want to turn that corner. 149 00:05:37,428 --> 00:05:39,548 Speaker 8: Why are the Commanders in the NFC Championship and we're 150 00:05:39,588 --> 00:05:41,948 Speaker 8: still struggling in twenty twenty four, So they've got to 151 00:05:41,988 --> 00:05:42,828 Speaker 8: make some big decisions. 152 00:05:42,828 --> 00:05:43,908 Speaker 4: This is a huge offseason for the. 153 00:05:43,908 --> 00:05:45,468 Speaker 3: Dallas Okay, are you going to sit here right now 154 00:05:45,468 --> 00:05:49,268 Speaker 3: and say that, Oh so Digazoa, Jordan Lewis and Michael Parsons. 155 00:05:49,268 --> 00:05:52,108 Speaker 3: Those paying those guys, that's what's going to have you 156 00:05:52,148 --> 00:05:53,188 Speaker 3: beat the Phildelphi Eagles. 157 00:05:53,188 --> 00:05:53,948 Speaker 4: That's going to be it. 158 00:05:53,948 --> 00:05:58,548 Speaker 3: It's not going wide receiver. You're thinking selectively aggressive implies 159 00:05:58,588 --> 00:05:59,348 Speaker 3: on defense. 160 00:05:59,548 --> 00:06:01,948 Speaker 8: That's where you start. Michael Parsons one of the best 161 00:06:01,988 --> 00:06:05,308 Speaker 8: players in football. Oh so Diggy's a younger player who's 162 00:06:05,348 --> 00:06:07,388 Speaker 8: just going to keep getting better. And then Jordan letis 163 00:06:07,428 --> 00:06:08,828 Speaker 8: a veteran. I think those are three guys that are 164 00:06:08,828 --> 00:06:11,588 Speaker 8: a staple. And then after we secure that, then we 165 00:06:11,668 --> 00:06:14,068 Speaker 8: can go and spend some more money in free agency. 166 00:06:14,108 --> 00:06:16,108 Speaker 8: But I think it's so important, And Kyle said they've 167 00:06:16,108 --> 00:06:16,988 Speaker 8: been going to getting. 168 00:06:16,748 --> 00:06:18,548 Speaker 4: Free agents and none of them are really panning out. 169 00:06:18,828 --> 00:06:21,028 Speaker 8: Focus in house and then let's go branch out and 170 00:06:21,068 --> 00:06:22,188 Speaker 8: go find some guys in free agency. 171 00:06:22,188 --> 00:06:22,708 Speaker 4: They can help us. 172 00:06:22,708 --> 00:06:24,148 Speaker 3: With Marko, I feel like we're in the upside down 173 00:06:24,228 --> 00:06:26,868 Speaker 3: right now. Cody's advocating to pay the defense, and I'm 174 00:06:26,868 --> 00:06:28,228 Speaker 3: sure you're going to come at me now with wide 175 00:06:28,228 --> 00:06:28,748 Speaker 3: receiver one. 176 00:06:28,828 --> 00:06:29,068 Speaker 4: Huh. 177 00:06:29,108 --> 00:06:30,908 Speaker 9: I was thinking about it, right I was really thinking 178 00:06:30,908 --> 00:06:33,028 Speaker 9: about it now. I mean trying to beat the Eagles 179 00:06:33,108 --> 00:06:34,628 Speaker 9: right now. I mean they could be set up for 180 00:06:34,668 --> 00:06:36,948 Speaker 9: a long run. I mean they're real, real good, so 181 00:06:36,988 --> 00:06:39,788 Speaker 9: that's tough. But I mean looking at Jerry two things. 182 00:06:40,148 --> 00:06:42,788 Speaker 9: Number One, I think the Cowboys are the most valuable 183 00:06:42,948 --> 00:06:45,508 Speaker 9: sports franchise in the world period. 184 00:06:45,788 --> 00:06:48,028 Speaker 7: And he's a good actor. It was awesome. He was 185 00:06:48,068 --> 00:06:49,988 Speaker 7: great on Landman, so good stuff. 186 00:06:50,268 --> 00:06:52,908 Speaker 9: But thinking about Dallas moving forward, you're right, I'm glad 187 00:06:52,988 --> 00:06:54,508 Speaker 9: you mentioned Michah Parsons. 188 00:06:55,268 --> 00:06:57,908 Speaker 7: Outside of Mahomes or any of the. 189 00:06:57,788 --> 00:07:00,308 Speaker 9: Offensive guys we consider one of the best in the league. 190 00:07:00,428 --> 00:07:02,348 Speaker 9: I think Michaeh. Parsons is one of the best players 191 00:07:02,388 --> 00:07:03,028 Speaker 9: we've ever seen. 192 00:07:03,268 --> 00:07:03,788 Speaker 7: He really is. 193 00:07:03,828 --> 00:07:06,868 Speaker 9: He can line up absolutely anywhere, he can rush from anywhere, 194 00:07:06,868 --> 00:07:07,708 Speaker 9: and he can cover. 195 00:07:07,788 --> 00:07:09,668 Speaker 7: Just as well. So and I like what he said. 196 00:07:09,788 --> 00:07:12,268 Speaker 9: I know Max Crosby just you know, set the market, 197 00:07:12,268 --> 00:07:14,948 Speaker 9: but Michaeh. Parsons was quick to say, I don't need 198 00:07:14,988 --> 00:07:16,668 Speaker 9: to be the highest paid guy in the league to 199 00:07:16,708 --> 00:07:19,868 Speaker 9: be effective. That's not what he's after. He's after wins. 200 00:07:19,908 --> 00:07:23,348 Speaker 9: He's after championship. So anyway you can figure out to 201 00:07:23,348 --> 00:07:26,188 Speaker 9: get Dak Prescott over the hump, Dak puts up numbers. 202 00:07:26,228 --> 00:07:29,028 Speaker 9: I like Dak Prescott, don't you? And everybody does. The 203 00:07:29,028 --> 00:07:32,028 Speaker 9: guy can absolutely play. Why he hasn't gotten farther than 204 00:07:32,028 --> 00:07:34,588 Speaker 9: he has is beyond me. But I do look at 205 00:07:34,588 --> 00:07:36,828 Speaker 9: this at Brian Schottenheimer getting his shot to be the 206 00:07:36,868 --> 00:07:39,828 Speaker 9: Cowboys coach. I know shoddy shot. He's a good man, 207 00:07:39,948 --> 00:07:42,188 Speaker 9: he's a good dude, and he's a fantastic coach. We're 208 00:07:42,188 --> 00:07:44,348 Speaker 9: gonna find out if he can be a head coach. 209 00:07:44,708 --> 00:07:45,988 Speaker 9: I think he's in the right spot. 210 00:07:46,068 --> 00:07:46,668 Speaker 7: We'll see. 211 00:07:47,388 --> 00:07:49,388 Speaker 9: He's got a lot of pieces to work with. He's 212 00:07:49,388 --> 00:07:51,628 Speaker 9: got Ceedee lamb, he's got Dak. Like I just mentioned, 213 00:07:52,108 --> 00:07:55,748 Speaker 9: they're not that far away. The problem is Philadelphia is 214 00:07:55,748 --> 00:07:58,588 Speaker 9: in your division. Easier said than done. So we'll see 215 00:07:58,588 --> 00:08:00,588 Speaker 9: what happens with the Cowboys, And I'm with you. I 216 00:08:00,628 --> 00:08:03,668 Speaker 9: bet that fan base is getting restless. But it's the 217 00:08:03,708 --> 00:08:05,908 Speaker 9: Cowboys they're going to be there every single Sunday. 218 00:08:05,948 --> 00:08:07,668 Speaker 8: And the commanders are only getting better, right, They're going 219 00:08:07,708 --> 00:08:09,428 Speaker 8: to keep getting They're going to get more skilled. 220 00:08:09,468 --> 00:08:10,788 Speaker 7: I'm a lifelong Cowboy fan. 221 00:08:11,588 --> 00:08:12,108 Speaker 4: Yeah, here we go. 222 00:08:12,388 --> 00:08:17,148 Speaker 10: My text chains are filled with many bad words about 223 00:08:17,188 --> 00:08:21,868 Speaker 10: what the Cowboys have accomplished lately. But it's real easy 224 00:08:21,868 --> 00:08:23,428 Speaker 10: to say, we got to spend money. We got to 225 00:08:23,428 --> 00:08:26,948 Speaker 10: spend money. I know, DAK and CD just restructure. There's 226 00:08:26,948 --> 00:08:29,068 Speaker 10: still huge numbers against the cap, and again I don't 227 00:08:29,068 --> 00:08:31,868 Speaker 10: pretend to understand how the cap works. Certain teams seem 228 00:08:31,908 --> 00:08:34,388 Speaker 10: to be able to circumvent that better than others. 229 00:08:34,468 --> 00:08:34,948 Speaker 7: I don't know. 230 00:08:35,228 --> 00:08:38,188 Speaker 10: But if you sign Parsons, which you absolutely have to do, 231 00:08:38,228 --> 00:08:42,708 Speaker 10: you're looking at another huge deal. How many top premiere 232 00:08:42,828 --> 00:08:44,708 Speaker 10: free agents are they going to be able to go 233 00:08:44,748 --> 00:08:47,748 Speaker 10: out and get with those huge guys already on their books. 234 00:08:47,828 --> 00:08:48,708 Speaker 7: I don't understand it. 235 00:08:48,708 --> 00:08:49,308 Speaker 4: It's a great point. 236 00:08:49,308 --> 00:08:51,148 Speaker 8: They're one of the teams that's going to heavily benefit 237 00:08:51,188 --> 00:08:52,908 Speaker 8: from the salary cap going from two undred and fifty 238 00:08:52,908 --> 00:08:53,468 Speaker 8: five million. 239 00:08:53,268 --> 00:08:54,748 Speaker 4: To undred and eighty million. But I'm with you. 240 00:08:54,588 --> 00:08:56,508 Speaker 8: If you want to have star players, you can only 241 00:08:56,668 --> 00:08:58,348 Speaker 8: sign so many, right, and then you have to go 242 00:08:58,428 --> 00:09:00,388 Speaker 8: find guys in the draft. You have to go find 243 00:09:00,388 --> 00:09:01,948 Speaker 8: maybe some veterans that have been in the league for 244 00:09:01,948 --> 00:09:04,628 Speaker 8: a while that don't want max contract. So it's going 245 00:09:04,628 --> 00:09:06,508 Speaker 8: to be interesting. But there's a lot of hurdles for 246 00:09:06,588 --> 00:09:08,668 Speaker 8: the Jones this offseason, for the Cowboys to become a 247 00:09:08,668 --> 00:09:09,148 Speaker 8: true continent. 248 00:09:09,228 --> 00:09:10,868 Speaker 9: I am with Kyle, though it's weird that we're trying 249 00:09:10,908 --> 00:09:12,508 Speaker 9: to convince the Cowboys to spend money. 250 00:09:12,948 --> 00:09:14,308 Speaker 7: That's weird. Are they not? 251 00:09:14,428 --> 00:09:14,628 Speaker 4: Though? 252 00:09:14,668 --> 00:09:17,508 Speaker 10: Like, where are they in the salary in the overall? 253 00:09:17,788 --> 00:09:20,828 Speaker 8: Like, well, so right now, I know they were a 254 00:09:20,908 --> 00:09:22,268 Speaker 8: team that's going to have to jump some hurdles. 255 00:09:22,268 --> 00:09:23,948 Speaker 3: They were showing I know the exact number after the. 256 00:09:26,388 --> 00:09:29,108 Speaker 10: Yeah, why do we think they're not doing their job? 257 00:09:29,948 --> 00:09:30,268 Speaker 2: Kyle? 258 00:09:30,788 --> 00:09:31,948 Speaker 4: Do you have an answer to this question? 259 00:09:32,148 --> 00:09:34,268 Speaker 5: Well, listen, I love Micah and I love Dak. 260 00:09:34,348 --> 00:09:35,028 Speaker 7: It's guys. 261 00:09:35,228 --> 00:09:37,948 Speaker 5: They were both out there last year when the Cowboys 262 00:09:37,988 --> 00:09:40,468 Speaker 5: lost by thirty eight points to the Lions. They were 263 00:09:40,508 --> 00:09:43,188 Speaker 5: out there when the Cowboys got slaughtered by the terrible 264 00:09:43,228 --> 00:09:45,028 Speaker 5: Saints at home. The guys they have are not getting 265 00:09:45,068 --> 00:09:47,748 Speaker 5: it done. We need you guys, and just it's easy 266 00:09:47,788 --> 00:09:50,748 Speaker 5: to look at Sakuan to Philadelphia and that's the glimmering object, 267 00:09:50,788 --> 00:09:53,308 Speaker 5: and I get it, but maybe look at Washington, look 268 00:09:53,308 --> 00:09:55,788 Speaker 5: at look at zach Ertz, and look at Bobby Wagner 269 00:09:55,868 --> 00:09:59,268 Speaker 5: and look at Austin Eckler. Those guys weren't super expensive, 270 00:09:59,348 --> 00:10:01,788 Speaker 5: high priced items, but they were huge parts of the 271 00:10:01,868 --> 00:10:04,348 Speaker 5: run that they made. They changed the team, they changed 272 00:10:04,468 --> 00:10:06,868 Speaker 5: the locker room, they made huge plays. The guys that 273 00:10:07,028 --> 00:10:10,188 Speaker 5: Dallas have, as expensive as they need be, are not enough. 274 00:10:10,588 --> 00:10:13,508 Speaker 5: One of them is actually saying on social media, we're 275 00:10:13,548 --> 00:10:16,148 Speaker 5: not enough. It's not just to get your own finances 276 00:10:16,348 --> 00:10:18,308 Speaker 5: in the house is not enough. That house is nothing 277 00:10:18,388 --> 00:10:20,708 Speaker 5: right now, you got to bring new people to the party. 278 00:10:20,908 --> 00:10:22,828 Speaker 5: If they go through this free agency and do the 279 00:10:22,868 --> 00:10:25,708 Speaker 5: cowboys thing again, We're like, yeah, they didn't do much. 280 00:10:26,108 --> 00:10:28,668 Speaker 5: I just you actually get accusatory with them. You're like, 281 00:10:28,708 --> 00:10:30,628 Speaker 5: do you care? Do you want to win? Do you 282 00:10:30,668 --> 00:10:32,948 Speaker 5: want to make money? Like what are you doing? Go 283 00:10:32,988 --> 00:10:35,148 Speaker 5: out and bring some people in and if they don't work, 284 00:10:35,668 --> 00:10:38,348 Speaker 5: you tried, but take some damn swings, let's go. 285 00:10:38,588 --> 00:10:41,308 Speaker 3: It doesn't feel like they're at selectively aggressive yet, I 286 00:10:41,348 --> 00:10:43,028 Speaker 3: guess is where this conversation landed. 287 00:10:43,068 --> 00:10:45,988 Speaker 4: Well year before they were all just aggressive aggressive. Why 288 00:10:45,988 --> 00:10:46,988 Speaker 4: does it have to be selective? 289 00:10:47,028 --> 00:10:47,428 Speaker 2: They do this. 290 00:10:47,828 --> 00:10:50,108 Speaker 3: They do this at the trade deadline, like good, We're 291 00:10:50,108 --> 00:10:53,068 Speaker 3: going to say everybody, We're going to sign everybody. 292 00:10:53,308 --> 00:10:54,468 Speaker 2: The Kers do it? 293 00:10:54,628 --> 00:10:56,748 Speaker 4: Why are you all in two years ago over there? 294 00:10:56,828 --> 00:10:58,948 Speaker 8: Yea, that was there, and they spend the least amount 295 00:10:58,948 --> 00:11:00,308 Speaker 8: of money in the entire off season. So there was 296 00:11:00,348 --> 00:11:02,428 Speaker 8: a lot of heads scratching and in confusing. 297 00:11:02,028 --> 00:11:02,268 Speaker 4: With that. 298 00:11:04,708 --> 00:11:16,268 Speaker 2: Good money football, good mon football. 299 00:11:16,468 --> 00:11:19,668 Speaker 3: Browns general manager Andrew Berry did not waiver on his 300 00:11:19,788 --> 00:11:22,348 Speaker 3: stance that the Browns have no interest at all in 301 00:11:22,388 --> 00:11:26,188 Speaker 3: trading all pro pass rusher Miles Garrett Kyle, despite Miles 302 00:11:26,188 --> 00:11:28,668 Speaker 3: Garrett putting the statement out himself not long ago, saying 303 00:11:28,868 --> 00:11:31,548 Speaker 3: I would like out of Cleveland this. I called it 304 00:11:31,588 --> 00:11:33,788 Speaker 3: awkward the other day, and I think Peter corrected me. 305 00:11:33,828 --> 00:11:35,628 Speaker 4: He's like, it doesn't feel awkward to me. I'm still 306 00:11:35,628 --> 00:11:36,908 Speaker 4: going to hang my hat on his awkward. 307 00:11:37,428 --> 00:11:38,468 Speaker 11: I wonder why Peter said that. 308 00:11:38,468 --> 00:11:38,748 Speaker 4: Here. 309 00:11:38,788 --> 00:11:40,708 Speaker 5: We'll asking when he's back. I don't think Miles Garrett's 310 00:11:40,708 --> 00:11:43,388 Speaker 5: playing for the Browns. I don't really, I don't not 311 00:11:43,468 --> 00:11:45,468 Speaker 5: on his end, you know, I'm sure that they're like, 312 00:11:45,628 --> 00:11:47,628 Speaker 5: he's our best player, he's maybe the top three player 313 00:11:47,628 --> 00:11:48,988 Speaker 5: in the league. We're not letting him go. I think 314 00:11:49,028 --> 00:11:50,948 Speaker 5: he has strong convictions. I think he's seen a lot 315 00:11:50,988 --> 00:11:52,908 Speaker 5: of things. I think he wants out. I just want 316 00:11:52,948 --> 00:11:54,948 Speaker 5: to address one thing. I was reading a lot about 317 00:11:54,948 --> 00:11:56,828 Speaker 5: Miles Garrett last night, and one of the things that 318 00:11:56,908 --> 00:11:59,708 Speaker 5: comes up is this idea of teams that could potentially 319 00:11:59,708 --> 00:12:02,388 Speaker 5: be suitors if the Browns were to agree to part 320 00:12:02,388 --> 00:12:04,908 Speaker 5: with them. And there's this pushback about, like, you know, 321 00:12:04,988 --> 00:12:07,668 Speaker 5: Miles Garrett is going to be so expensive, just draft 322 00:12:07,708 --> 00:12:10,228 Speaker 5: an edge rusher, Like have you ever seen Miles Garrett 323 00:12:10,268 --> 00:12:10,868 Speaker 5: play football? 324 00:12:10,868 --> 00:12:12,148 Speaker 7: Like what are you talking about? 325 00:12:12,508 --> 00:12:14,868 Speaker 5: You could bring up all the guys in this year's draft, 326 00:12:14,948 --> 00:12:17,588 Speaker 5: all the edge rushers in last year's draft, and next 327 00:12:17,628 --> 00:12:18,268 Speaker 5: year's draft. 328 00:12:18,748 --> 00:12:20,268 Speaker 6: None of them are Miles Garrett. 329 00:12:20,388 --> 00:12:23,748 Speaker 5: These are great players right here, they're not Miles Garrett's 330 00:12:23,828 --> 00:12:25,508 Speaker 5: and even if you were to draft room, they're not 331 00:12:25,508 --> 00:12:26,788 Speaker 5: gonna be Miles Garrett. 332 00:12:26,788 --> 00:12:28,108 Speaker 7: He is put it this way. 333 00:12:28,188 --> 00:12:29,668 Speaker 5: You know how good you have to be to win 334 00:12:29,708 --> 00:12:32,708 Speaker 5: a game on national television and then the postgame reporter 335 00:12:32,788 --> 00:12:35,988 Speaker 5: goes to you and says, so, Miles, how do you 336 00:12:36,068 --> 00:12:39,188 Speaker 5: see the best players on defense in the league right now? 337 00:12:39,188 --> 00:12:41,588 Speaker 6: And to say this I'm number. 338 00:12:41,348 --> 00:12:44,948 Speaker 4: One, and no, that's fine, as you been to one 339 00:12:45,108 --> 00:12:47,108 Speaker 4: edge one to depend to play of the year. 340 00:12:47,628 --> 00:12:49,628 Speaker 7: I'm the guy, so that runs to me. 341 00:12:49,988 --> 00:12:52,188 Speaker 5: With due respect to the guys coming out or other 342 00:12:52,308 --> 00:12:54,828 Speaker 5: free agents. Nobody's that guy last year. 343 00:12:54,868 --> 00:12:55,108 Speaker 7: TJ. 344 00:12:55,268 --> 00:12:57,828 Speaker 5: Watt wasn't that guy. That guy is that guy. I 345 00:12:57,868 --> 00:12:59,388 Speaker 5: know Cleveland wants to hold on to him. I think 346 00:12:59,388 --> 00:13:01,508 Speaker 5: he's determined to leave. Don't think you can get anything 347 00:13:01,508 --> 00:13:02,908 Speaker 5: else other than him if you move for it. 348 00:13:02,988 --> 00:13:04,108 Speaker 7: Pete said it wasn't awkward. 349 00:13:04,708 --> 00:13:07,308 Speaker 3: Okay, So I said, wow, Peter, this seems awkward. We're 350 00:13:07,308 --> 00:13:08,988 Speaker 3: a player to put out a statement and then for 351 00:13:09,148 --> 00:13:11,708 Speaker 3: his general manager at head coach to openly is just 352 00:13:11,708 --> 00:13:13,988 Speaker 3: say like, no, that guy's playing for us next year. 353 00:13:14,028 --> 00:13:14,748 Speaker 4: I deemed it awkward. 354 00:13:14,788 --> 00:13:18,028 Speaker 3: Peter said it wasn't because he's just he was convinced 355 00:13:18,068 --> 00:13:21,028 Speaker 3: that the team was steadfast and that they will work 356 00:13:21,108 --> 00:13:24,428 Speaker 3: something out, and that how you couldn't let Miles Garrett 357 00:13:24,428 --> 00:13:25,148 Speaker 3: walk out the door. 358 00:13:25,188 --> 00:13:26,268 Speaker 7: Makes perfect sense. 359 00:13:26,308 --> 00:13:28,708 Speaker 9: I get both sides now, because if you're Cleveland, you 360 00:13:28,788 --> 00:13:29,508 Speaker 9: never let him go. 361 00:13:29,988 --> 00:13:32,108 Speaker 7: He's one of the best players we've ever seen. 362 00:13:32,148 --> 00:13:34,348 Speaker 9: I mean, he's almost a guarantee, a lock for double 363 00:13:34,348 --> 00:13:37,308 Speaker 9: digit sacks of the year. He cannot be blocked with 364 00:13:37,348 --> 00:13:37,948 Speaker 9: one or two. 365 00:13:37,988 --> 00:13:38,988 Speaker 7: He is just that guy. 366 00:13:39,588 --> 00:13:41,708 Speaker 9: So I understand the other side of him, and I 367 00:13:41,788 --> 00:13:43,708 Speaker 9: was shocked about Joe Thomas and other players that were 368 00:13:43,708 --> 00:13:46,508 Speaker 9: in Cleveland that have lost for so long. You need to, 369 00:13:47,068 --> 00:13:48,388 Speaker 9: you know, try to get out of there if you 370 00:13:48,388 --> 00:13:50,428 Speaker 9: want to win. You're getting towards the end of your career. 371 00:13:50,508 --> 00:13:52,948 Speaker 9: So I get for Miles Garrett's coming from. I want 372 00:13:52,948 --> 00:13:54,788 Speaker 9: to go someplace where I can win, where this stuff 373 00:13:54,828 --> 00:13:57,148 Speaker 9: where we see doesn't get buried in the highlights. Yeah, 374 00:13:57,188 --> 00:13:59,428 Speaker 9: where it actually gets, you know, put to the forefront. 375 00:13:59,828 --> 00:14:02,148 Speaker 9: He is, like I said, the pre eminent player in 376 00:14:02,188 --> 00:14:04,468 Speaker 9: the National Football League along defensive line. And so SO 377 00:14:04,748 --> 00:14:06,788 Speaker 9: saw him in Los Angeles. He happened to be in 378 00:14:06,828 --> 00:14:09,068 Speaker 9: the same suite I was in for a Lakers game. 379 00:14:09,148 --> 00:14:12,028 Speaker 9: Just walked in and it's so funny. His shoulders couldn't 380 00:14:12,068 --> 00:14:14,388 Speaker 9: fit through the door, but his waist was like a 381 00:14:14,428 --> 00:14:17,028 Speaker 9: thirty two. It's like if you were cut like a superhero. 382 00:14:17,588 --> 00:14:19,228 Speaker 8: I was in Cleveland his rook in the year when 383 00:14:19,228 --> 00:14:21,588 Speaker 8: we drafted him. He is one of the best physical 384 00:14:21,588 --> 00:14:23,748 Speaker 8: specimens I've ever been around in my entire life, and 385 00:14:23,748 --> 00:14:27,508 Speaker 8: he's so athletic. But this is the most intriguing offseason 386 00:14:27,548 --> 00:14:29,508 Speaker 8: story for me. It really is, because it's completely two 387 00:14:29,548 --> 00:14:31,588 Speaker 8: different sides of the spectrum. You have Miles Garrett on 388 00:14:31,628 --> 00:14:34,228 Speaker 8: February third, who says to the world, I want to 389 00:14:34,268 --> 00:14:35,988 Speaker 8: be traded. Then he goes on radio row during the 390 00:14:35,988 --> 00:14:38,108 Speaker 8: Super Bowl week doubles down, I want to be traded. 391 00:14:38,148 --> 00:14:40,108 Speaker 4: I want to be traded. Fast forward to the combine. 392 00:14:40,228 --> 00:14:41,988 Speaker 8: Then you have Andrew Berry, the general manager, come out 393 00:14:41,988 --> 00:14:43,988 Speaker 8: and say we're not trading them, He's not going anywhere. 394 00:14:43,988 --> 00:14:46,828 Speaker 8: And then you have Kevin Stefanski reiterate that and say, 395 00:14:46,828 --> 00:14:48,028 Speaker 8: you know he's going to be here. He's a part 396 00:14:48,068 --> 00:14:49,628 Speaker 8: of our president, he's a part of our future. He's 397 00:14:49,628 --> 00:14:51,268 Speaker 8: going to be on the team this year, next year, 398 00:14:51,268 --> 00:14:53,868 Speaker 8: in the year after that. So it's two completely opposite sides. 399 00:14:53,908 --> 00:14:56,548 Speaker 8: And the thing that worries me is that Miles Garrett 400 00:14:56,548 --> 00:14:58,628 Speaker 8: didn't come out and say I want more money, right, 401 00:14:58,668 --> 00:15:01,028 Speaker 8: I want X amount of dolts I want I want 402 00:15:01,028 --> 00:15:02,388 Speaker 8: to be traded to a team that's going to win 403 00:15:02,428 --> 00:15:04,108 Speaker 8: a Super Bowl. And if you do trade Miles Garrett, 404 00:15:04,388 --> 00:15:05,468 Speaker 8: I believe you're starting your rebuild. 405 00:15:05,508 --> 00:15:07,148 Speaker 4: If you're the Browns thirty and fourteen a year ago. 406 00:15:07,188 --> 00:15:09,188 Speaker 8: If you let your best player walk away trying to 407 00:15:09,188 --> 00:15:11,988 Speaker 8: get multiple first round picks for him, you are basically saying. 408 00:15:11,788 --> 00:15:13,668 Speaker 7: What do you get for him? Yeah, that's the question. 409 00:15:13,748 --> 00:15:15,348 Speaker 4: You can get anything you want right now in this fall. 410 00:15:15,588 --> 00:15:18,108 Speaker 8: You're committing to a rebuild, saying that we know we're 411 00:15:18,108 --> 00:15:20,028 Speaker 8: not going to get there because they're not competitors right now. 412 00:15:20,028 --> 00:15:22,788 Speaker 8: They really aren't. This is a huge offseason for the Browns. 413 00:15:22,788 --> 00:15:24,988 Speaker 8: They have the number two overall pick outside of the Saints. 414 00:15:25,028 --> 00:15:27,308 Speaker 8: They have the worst salary cap situation in the NFL. 415 00:15:27,508 --> 00:15:28,148 Speaker 4: Andrew Berry is. 416 00:15:28,148 --> 00:15:29,508 Speaker 8: Gonna have to jump a lot of hurdles when it 417 00:15:29,548 --> 00:15:33,428 Speaker 8: comes to free agency. It's just it's a very difficult situation. 418 00:15:33,548 --> 00:15:35,388 Speaker 8: I just don't know how they can keep Miles Garrett 419 00:15:35,428 --> 00:15:37,268 Speaker 8: happy and figure out a way to contend. 420 00:15:36,988 --> 00:15:38,228 Speaker 7: Nowhere to go on, you nail it. 421 00:15:38,588 --> 00:15:40,828 Speaker 5: If there's money problems, you can fix them. We'll figure 422 00:15:40,828 --> 00:15:42,348 Speaker 5: it out, get someone to adjust it. 423 00:15:42,388 --> 00:15:42,748 Speaker 6: Fine. 424 00:15:43,188 --> 00:15:45,708 Speaker 5: He said that this past season was worse than ZHO 425 00:15:45,788 --> 00:15:48,468 Speaker 5: sixteen for him, Like it's not about money, It's like 426 00:15:48,548 --> 00:15:49,588 Speaker 5: I want out of here. 427 00:15:49,748 --> 00:15:51,148 Speaker 6: Can you imagine going to work there? 428 00:15:51,188 --> 00:15:53,668 Speaker 5: And there's this whole Deshaun Watson thing that you've gone through, 429 00:15:53,748 --> 00:15:54,708 Speaker 5: not to mention the losing. 430 00:15:54,748 --> 00:15:56,748 Speaker 6: Now Watson's hurt. What is this team? 431 00:15:57,108 --> 00:15:59,828 Speaker 5: I'm deep in my career. I've never won squat. I 432 00:15:59,868 --> 00:16:01,308 Speaker 5: want to win something. I want to be one of 433 00:16:01,348 --> 00:16:03,348 Speaker 5: the greats. I want to be Reggie White running around 434 00:16:03,348 --> 00:16:05,548 Speaker 5: with the Packers holding up the low. I don't think 435 00:16:05,548 --> 00:16:07,348 Speaker 5: it's money, it's I don't want to play here anymore. 436 00:16:07,348 --> 00:16:08,548 Speaker 6: I don't live here anymore. 437 00:16:08,588 --> 00:16:10,548 Speaker 3: In the statement, it was I want to go from 438 00:16:10,588 --> 00:16:13,548 Speaker 3: Cleveland to Canton. And I think what he's implying is that, like, 439 00:16:13,628 --> 00:16:16,428 Speaker 3: if I stay here, you are messing with my goals 440 00:16:16,508 --> 00:16:19,388 Speaker 3: and my career goals in his like Hall of Fame pursuit. 441 00:16:19,508 --> 00:16:21,828 Speaker 3: You know, that's a very specific direction that he wants 442 00:16:21,868 --> 00:16:24,988 Speaker 3: to do. I'm a conspiracy theorist. I think that ownership 443 00:16:25,308 --> 00:16:27,348 Speaker 3: GM coach, they are going to say he is not 444 00:16:27,428 --> 00:16:29,748 Speaker 3: going anywhere, to drive up the price and to see 445 00:16:29,748 --> 00:16:32,188 Speaker 3: what they would get for Miles Garrett, because I think 446 00:16:32,228 --> 00:16:33,028 Speaker 3: somebody would want a. 447 00:16:33,028 --> 00:16:34,388 Speaker 4: Bad Land and I don't care what you have. 448 00:16:34,908 --> 00:16:37,988 Speaker 9: He's better. Yeah, I would trade anything to get me Garrett. 449 00:16:38,028 --> 00:16:38,508 Speaker 4: Absolutely. 450 00:16:38,668 --> 00:16:38,868 Speaker 7: Yes. 451 00:16:38,868 --> 00:16:42,948 Speaker 5: Anytime we let our self think about landing spots every. 452 00:16:42,708 --> 00:16:44,868 Speaker 6: Time you're like, oh God, no, he's gonna go to Philly. 453 00:16:44,868 --> 00:16:47,308 Speaker 5: Oh it's terrifying. Like it's almost like we can't have 454 00:16:47,348 --> 00:16:50,588 Speaker 5: that happens. It's like, you know, David Stern, like nullifying trades. 455 00:16:50,708 --> 00:16:52,868 Speaker 7: Wait we can ye fair. 456 00:16:53,108 --> 00:16:55,068 Speaker 5: I mean this is like to the Lakers, like we 457 00:16:55,068 --> 00:16:57,068 Speaker 5: can't have Miles Garrett in a Philadelphia get a Miles 458 00:16:57,108 --> 00:16:57,948 Speaker 5: Garrett in anywhere. 459 00:16:57,988 --> 00:17:00,628 Speaker 3: The one move for Miles Garrett with everything that that 460 00:17:00,668 --> 00:17:02,908 Speaker 3: team would have to give up, would be parallel to 461 00:17:02,948 --> 00:17:05,148 Speaker 3: the Rams and how they did all those things with 462 00:17:05,148 --> 00:17:06,668 Speaker 3: the picks a couple of years ago in order to win. 463 00:17:09,028 --> 00:17:09,948 Speaker 7: I hope it's out of the West. 464 00:17:11,188 --> 00:17:14,268 Speaker 8: To Jamie's point, though, it gets to the situation of 465 00:17:14,308 --> 00:17:15,908 Speaker 8: do we keep Miles Garrett he's not happy and we 466 00:17:15,948 --> 00:17:17,788 Speaker 8: know he doesn't want to be here, or do we 467 00:17:17,828 --> 00:17:19,228 Speaker 8: pull the trigger on a trade and try to figure 468 00:17:19,228 --> 00:17:21,188 Speaker 8: out the situation now, Because like I said, I just 469 00:17:21,708 --> 00:17:23,588 Speaker 8: and not a lot of fund memories in Cleveland, but 470 00:17:23,628 --> 00:17:25,148 Speaker 8: I love the fans, I love the city. You know, 471 00:17:25,468 --> 00:17:27,868 Speaker 8: they treated me well. I want to see them be successful. 472 00:17:27,868 --> 00:17:29,228 Speaker 8: I want to see him when I think Miles Garrett 473 00:17:29,268 --> 00:17:30,788 Speaker 8: has to be a part of that picture but if 474 00:17:30,828 --> 00:17:32,148 Speaker 8: he doesn't want to be there, I. 475 00:17:32,108 --> 00:17:34,348 Speaker 9: Bet they don't blame the point because eventually he's going 476 00:17:34,428 --> 00:17:36,068 Speaker 9: to have to come back and play. Yeah, he is, 477 00:17:36,148 --> 00:17:38,548 Speaker 9: because he's on a Hall of Fame type career and 478 00:17:38,588 --> 00:17:39,228 Speaker 9: you've got to play. 479 00:17:39,308 --> 00:17:42,948 Speaker 5: Keep those their logic in trading, taking the huge king's 480 00:17:42,988 --> 00:17:45,508 Speaker 5: ransom of picks and rebuilding your team, which you need 481 00:17:45,548 --> 00:17:46,508 Speaker 5: to do otherwise you. 482 00:17:46,548 --> 00:17:48,028 Speaker 6: Keep a fantastic defensive end. 483 00:17:48,068 --> 00:17:50,348 Speaker 5: I get he's a great player, but you can spend 484 00:17:50,348 --> 00:17:53,148 Speaker 5: that stuff and the real building blocks and the quarterback 485 00:17:53,188 --> 00:17:53,548 Speaker 5: and all. 486 00:17:53,468 --> 00:17:56,068 Speaker 4: That, and that's a huge jumpstart to the rebuilding. 487 00:17:56,108 --> 00:17:58,268 Speaker 3: So I have and they've had him, and they even 488 00:17:58,468 --> 00:18:00,748 Speaker 3: having him, they haven't won the way he has wanted to, 489 00:18:00,828 --> 00:18:03,388 Speaker 3: or frankly, the way the organization probably wants to with 490 00:18:03,468 --> 00:18:05,868 Speaker 3: him in the building. So he's great, but they got 491 00:18:05,868 --> 00:18:08,948 Speaker 3: to do something, and I'm still calling it awkward. Third down, 492 00:18:09,108 --> 00:18:11,188 Speaker 3: here's a look at Lancer. I will not take any 493 00:18:11,188 --> 00:18:13,628 Speaker 3: other word to Marco. Here's a look at Lancer lines 494 00:18:13,668 --> 00:18:16,068 Speaker 3: mock draft two point zero. We're already onto the second 495 00:18:16,148 --> 00:18:19,028 Speaker 3: version in mock drafting season. He has the Browns taking 496 00:18:19,028 --> 00:18:22,908 Speaker 3: Colorados Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter after the Titan selects 497 00:18:23,268 --> 00:18:25,028 Speaker 3: Abdul Carter number one overall. 498 00:18:25,988 --> 00:18:27,468 Speaker 4: Let's do this ourselves. 499 00:18:27,628 --> 00:18:30,388 Speaker 3: Who should the Browns take with the second overall pick. 500 00:18:30,468 --> 00:18:33,468 Speaker 3: We'll start with the former Brown himself, Cody Kessler. 501 00:18:34,148 --> 00:18:37,228 Speaker 8: Obviously, the Browns need a quarterback, and it's pretty consistent. 502 00:18:37,468 --> 00:18:40,228 Speaker 8: And obviously, I know there's some different mock drafts out there, 503 00:18:40,268 --> 00:18:41,548 Speaker 8: but a lot of people think they're going to take 504 00:18:41,548 --> 00:18:44,348 Speaker 8: a quarterback at number two. I'll say this, if you're 505 00:18:44,348 --> 00:18:46,588 Speaker 8: not one hundred percent sure, if you're not one hundred 506 00:18:46,588 --> 00:18:49,468 Speaker 8: and ten percent sure that the quarterback you're taking is 507 00:18:49,468 --> 00:18:51,828 Speaker 8: the future of your franchise for at minimum the next 508 00:18:51,828 --> 00:18:54,868 Speaker 8: five to seven years, do not make that pick. You 509 00:18:55,588 --> 00:18:57,748 Speaker 8: Just because a team needs a quarterback doesn't mean you 510 00:18:57,828 --> 00:18:58,788 Speaker 8: have to take a quarterback. 511 00:18:58,788 --> 00:18:59,748 Speaker 4: And I feel like that happens a. 512 00:18:59,748 --> 00:19:01,788 Speaker 8: Lot in drafts, to where teams feel like, well, this 513 00:19:01,868 --> 00:19:03,508 Speaker 8: is the top guy and we need a quarterback, let 514 00:19:03,548 --> 00:19:05,668 Speaker 8: me take him, or feel like, you know, this is 515 00:19:05,708 --> 00:19:08,228 Speaker 8: the next best quarterback available and we need a quarterback, 516 00:19:08,308 --> 00:19:09,388 Speaker 8: so let's pick a quarterback. 517 00:19:09,388 --> 00:19:10,108 Speaker 4: You don't have to do that. 518 00:19:10,188 --> 00:19:12,508 Speaker 8: There's a lot of very talented players at the top 519 00:19:12,548 --> 00:19:14,228 Speaker 8: of this draft board, right and I'm fine with either 520 00:19:14,268 --> 00:19:15,988 Speaker 8: one with the Browns. If they take Abdul Carter and 521 00:19:15,988 --> 00:19:17,988 Speaker 8: he's still there or Travis Hunter and he's still there, 522 00:19:18,228 --> 00:19:20,388 Speaker 8: I'm completely fine with those two picks. All I'm going 523 00:19:20,428 --> 00:19:23,148 Speaker 8: to say is if you're not fully sold on the quarterback, 524 00:19:23,148 --> 00:19:24,748 Speaker 8: you don't have to take him, because if the Browns 525 00:19:24,988 --> 00:19:27,268 Speaker 8: take the wrong guy at quarterback, they are going to 526 00:19:27,268 --> 00:19:30,108 Speaker 8: set their franchise back for multiple years. They can't miss 527 00:19:30,148 --> 00:19:32,428 Speaker 8: again on the quarterback. And that's why I say for 528 00:19:32,588 --> 00:19:36,348 Speaker 8: Andrew Berry, this is his most important offseason as a 529 00:19:36,388 --> 00:19:37,548 Speaker 8: general manager for the Browns. 530 00:19:37,588 --> 00:19:40,348 Speaker 7: We think just thinking what else is in the room? 531 00:19:40,468 --> 00:19:42,548 Speaker 9: Because I'm thinking how to build a football team and 532 00:19:42,588 --> 00:19:45,108 Speaker 9: I have to go out there and take snaps in September. 533 00:19:45,188 --> 00:19:46,988 Speaker 9: So what else am I going to trot out there? 534 00:19:47,068 --> 00:19:49,108 Speaker 9: If I don't take a quarterback high? I'm asking, like, 535 00:19:49,348 --> 00:19:52,388 Speaker 9: who's in the room, Like, we need someone to take some. 536 00:19:52,748 --> 00:19:54,908 Speaker 4: Money in free agency? Get a guy, or. 537 00:19:54,748 --> 00:19:56,508 Speaker 9: I could take a young guy that I like or 538 00:19:56,628 --> 00:19:59,708 Speaker 9: kind of like in cam Ord and say, let's see, now, 539 00:19:59,708 --> 00:20:00,108 Speaker 9: I get you. 540 00:20:00,188 --> 00:20:02,028 Speaker 7: It's a high pick and it's. 541 00:20:02,348 --> 00:20:04,588 Speaker 9: There's risk involved. But what else am I go to 542 00:20:04,628 --> 00:20:07,348 Speaker 9: put on the field? I need someone to take back? 543 00:20:07,428 --> 00:20:07,628 Speaker 7: Man? 544 00:20:07,668 --> 00:20:10,068 Speaker 9: There's a good chance that the guy may actually pan out. 545 00:20:10,068 --> 00:20:12,308 Speaker 9: He was a really good college player. Of all the 546 00:20:12,348 --> 00:20:14,308 Speaker 9: quarterbacks in the draft, I think I like him the best. 547 00:20:14,348 --> 00:20:16,828 Speaker 9: I think he is game ready right now. So I 548 00:20:16,868 --> 00:20:19,668 Speaker 9: wouldn't hesitate if I'm Cleveland to take a quarterback, especially 549 00:20:19,708 --> 00:20:20,548 Speaker 9: if I needed one. 550 00:20:20,748 --> 00:20:23,628 Speaker 5: And you know, Cody's point is, I get it, but 551 00:20:23,908 --> 00:20:26,268 Speaker 5: don't take the wrong quarterback just for the sake of 552 00:20:26,268 --> 00:20:29,228 Speaker 5: taking a quarterback you knew is you find a Jamis 553 00:20:29,268 --> 00:20:31,428 Speaker 5: type and you put them out there and you try 554 00:20:31,468 --> 00:20:33,548 Speaker 5: your best, and maybe you go six and eleven in 555 00:20:33,588 --> 00:20:34,588 Speaker 5: the quarterback next year? 556 00:20:34,668 --> 00:20:35,308 Speaker 6: What kills me? 557 00:20:35,508 --> 00:20:37,748 Speaker 5: What kills me if a Browns fan is like, of course, 558 00:20:37,788 --> 00:20:40,188 Speaker 5: we have the second overall pick in the non quarterback draft. 559 00:20:40,268 --> 00:20:42,828 Speaker 6: We couldn't have taken Jason Daniels last year, couldn't we could. 560 00:20:42,708 --> 00:20:43,228 Speaker 4: Have taken Drake. 561 00:20:43,268 --> 00:20:44,628 Speaker 6: Maybe they were coming out. 562 00:20:44,508 --> 00:20:48,988 Speaker 5: Of our ears last year, right outside the top of anybody. 563 00:20:49,148 --> 00:20:50,868 Speaker 7: But this is what Miles Garrett's talking about. 564 00:20:50,908 --> 00:20:52,908 Speaker 9: Okay, So you're going to keep waiting to rebuild and 565 00:20:52,948 --> 00:20:54,988 Speaker 9: I'm just I'm putting in Hall of Fame numbers and 566 00:20:54,988 --> 00:20:57,108 Speaker 9: we keep losing. You know, if you're going to keep 567 00:20:57,148 --> 00:21:00,148 Speaker 9: doing this I'm out, so it makes sense, right, Yeah, I. 568 00:21:00,108 --> 00:21:02,508 Speaker 3: Think they should sign a quarterback and free agency and 569 00:21:02,548 --> 00:21:05,308 Speaker 3: take the best athlete at that spot. And even if 570 00:21:05,308 --> 00:21:07,868 Speaker 3: you trade back a couple and get another first round 571 00:21:07,868 --> 00:21:09,308 Speaker 3: pick or another second round pick. 572 00:21:09,268 --> 00:21:10,348 Speaker 2: Build your team. 573 00:21:10,508 --> 00:21:12,388 Speaker 3: It's not just about one guy. And again we've seen 574 00:21:12,428 --> 00:21:13,228 Speaker 3: that with Miles Garrett. 575 00:21:13,268 --> 00:21:14,668 Speaker 4: One guy can't win you football games. 576 00:21:14,868 --> 00:21:17,748 Speaker 3: Quarterback can't, if an edge rusher can't with Miles Garrett, 577 00:21:17,788 --> 00:21:19,748 Speaker 3: you got to build the entire team best athlete on 578 00:21:19,748 --> 00:21:20,188 Speaker 3: the board. 579 00:21:20,308 --> 00:21:22,628 Speaker 5: I actually don't hate Donald in Cleveland. That's what I'm 580 00:21:23,708 --> 00:21:25,868 Speaker 5: And when you talk about free agents, I like the 581 00:21:25,908 --> 00:21:27,988 Speaker 5: pairing there. I feel like Stefanski and O'Connell have a 582 00:21:28,028 --> 00:21:30,308 Speaker 5: lot in common, and you know, they don't have the 583 00:21:30,308 --> 00:21:32,068 Speaker 5: weapons that the Vikings do and they don't play in 584 00:21:32,108 --> 00:21:34,708 Speaker 5: the dome. It's not ideal, but I don't hate Donald 585 00:21:34,748 --> 00:21:35,308 Speaker 5: in Cleveland. 586 00:21:35,908 --> 00:21:38,068 Speaker 11: How much for Donald, I mean probably a lot. 587 00:21:38,188 --> 00:21:39,068 Speaker 4: That's what we keep hearing. 588 00:21:39,188 --> 00:21:54,748 Speaker 12: Yeah, good football, good football. 589 00:21:54,908 --> 00:21:57,348 Speaker 3: We had Max Crosby on the show about a month 590 00:21:57,428 --> 00:21:59,828 Speaker 3: or two ago in January, and it was really fun 591 00:21:59,828 --> 00:22:02,228 Speaker 3: having him on because Max would say a single word 592 00:22:02,268 --> 00:22:04,828 Speaker 3: a certain direction in the studio and everyone onlines like 593 00:22:04,868 --> 00:22:05,548 Speaker 3: what's the Easter egg? 594 00:22:05,548 --> 00:22:06,228 Speaker 4: Where is he going to go? 595 00:22:06,268 --> 00:22:10,068 Speaker 3: When Max Crosby speaks, people listen, and yesterday on The 596 00:22:10,148 --> 00:22:14,068 Speaker 3: Rush podcast, he said this about Aaron Rodgers, a now 597 00:22:14,148 --> 00:22:15,188 Speaker 3: free agent quarterback. 598 00:22:15,268 --> 00:22:16,908 Speaker 4: Quote, I think. 599 00:22:16,788 --> 00:22:19,948 Speaker 3: This year fully healthy, full off season. My prediction is 600 00:22:20,028 --> 00:22:22,348 Speaker 3: he's going to have a great year. He being Aaron Rodgers, 601 00:22:22,428 --> 00:22:23,828 Speaker 3: I think he's going to have a big year, and 602 00:22:23,868 --> 00:22:26,308 Speaker 3: I hope it's in our town. 603 00:22:26,708 --> 00:22:27,268 Speaker 2: Our town. 604 00:22:27,308 --> 00:22:30,628 Speaker 3: Crosby still under contract with the Raiders, although there is 605 00:22:30,668 --> 00:22:33,548 Speaker 3: some restructuring efforts. I'm sure that is taking place with 606 00:22:33,628 --> 00:22:37,028 Speaker 3: the star defensive player Cody big time takeaway from Max 607 00:22:37,068 --> 00:22:40,468 Speaker 3: Crosby effectively giving a pitch for Aaron Rodgers to come 608 00:22:40,508 --> 00:22:41,028 Speaker 3: to Vegas. 609 00:22:41,308 --> 00:22:41,788 Speaker 4: I agree. 610 00:22:41,788 --> 00:22:43,108 Speaker 8: Now, I don't know if he's going to be in 611 00:22:43,188 --> 00:22:44,988 Speaker 8: Las Vegas, but I think Rogers can still play a 612 00:22:45,068 --> 00:22:46,508 Speaker 8: high level if he's on the right team. 613 00:22:46,628 --> 00:22:46,748 Speaker 4: Right. 614 00:22:46,788 --> 00:22:48,588 Speaker 8: But you got to look back at what his demands were. 615 00:22:48,628 --> 00:22:50,268 Speaker 8: He said he wanted to play somewhere or it was 616 00:22:50,308 --> 00:22:52,708 Speaker 8: warm weather, right, let's check for Vegas. But he also 617 00:22:52,708 --> 00:22:54,148 Speaker 8: said he wants to go to a contender, a team 618 00:22:54,188 --> 00:22:56,388 Speaker 8: that can win. I don't know if Las Vegas is 619 00:22:56,428 --> 00:22:58,308 Speaker 8: quite there yet right now that They do have a 620 00:22:58,308 --> 00:23:00,428 Speaker 8: lot of money to spend their second and salary cap 621 00:23:00,468 --> 00:23:02,548 Speaker 8: behind the New England Patriots. 622 00:23:02,228 --> 00:23:03,428 Speaker 4: Right, so they can go out there and get some pieces. 623 00:23:03,428 --> 00:23:05,108 Speaker 8: They're gonna have to pay quarter if they do, so 624 00:23:05,148 --> 00:23:06,988 Speaker 8: that'll take a little bit of a hit, but overall, 625 00:23:07,028 --> 00:23:08,988 Speaker 8: they have money to spend and go get guys. 626 00:23:09,108 --> 00:23:11,548 Speaker 4: Another thing too, though, is do the Raiders. 627 00:23:11,228 --> 00:23:14,508 Speaker 8: Value Aaron Rodgers more than they value Sam Dharmer or 628 00:23:14,548 --> 00:23:16,588 Speaker 8: a guy that's maybe a little bit younger that still 629 00:23:16,628 --> 00:23:19,068 Speaker 8: has some more to play, you know, or a Kirk Cousins, 630 00:23:19,108 --> 00:23:21,188 Speaker 8: another veteran that's out there, or they value a guy 631 00:23:21,188 --> 00:23:22,628 Speaker 8: in the draft right now, and they're keeping the cards 632 00:23:22,628 --> 00:23:24,748 Speaker 8: close to their chest with that six overall pick, and 633 00:23:24,748 --> 00:23:25,988 Speaker 8: then they go out and get a veteran that's a 634 00:23:26,028 --> 00:23:27,628 Speaker 8: backup and allow a rookie to go play. 635 00:23:27,628 --> 00:23:29,188 Speaker 4: So I think there's so many question marks with this. 636 00:23:29,308 --> 00:23:31,148 Speaker 8: But like I said, last year, Rodgers had thirty nine 637 00:23:31,188 --> 00:23:34,228 Speaker 8: hundred yards, twenty eight touchdowns, only eleven interceptions on a 638 00:23:34,268 --> 00:23:36,948 Speaker 8: team that started falling apart right. They struggled throughout the 639 00:23:36,948 --> 00:23:38,748 Speaker 8: rest of the year and then they had, you know, 640 00:23:38,748 --> 00:23:39,308 Speaker 8: a change. 641 00:23:39,108 --> 00:23:39,628 Speaker 4: At the head coach. 642 00:23:39,628 --> 00:23:41,388 Speaker 8: If they fired their head coach fire, their GM, all 643 00:23:41,388 --> 00:23:43,868 Speaker 8: these different things falling apart, and he still played pretty decent. 644 00:23:43,908 --> 00:23:45,548 Speaker 8: So I think if he does go to Vegas and 645 00:23:45,588 --> 00:23:47,788 Speaker 8: they can build some pieces around him, he can have 646 00:23:47,788 --> 00:23:49,188 Speaker 8: a chance to come back and play. I don't know 647 00:23:49,188 --> 00:23:51,108 Speaker 8: if he's gonna get quite back to where he's been before, 648 00:23:51,308 --> 00:23:52,628 Speaker 8: but I think he can still produce at a very 649 00:23:52,708 --> 00:23:53,148 Speaker 8: high level. 650 00:23:53,148 --> 00:23:54,068 Speaker 4: I like Max doing it. 651 00:23:54,108 --> 00:23:55,748 Speaker 11: I like Max picking up for the Raiders because I 652 00:23:55,828 --> 00:23:58,308 Speaker 11: like Max on the Raiders. I don't see Rodgers going 653 00:23:58,308 --> 00:24:01,468 Speaker 11: to the Raiders. Let's haven't rely seen this movie before. 654 00:24:01,628 --> 00:24:03,948 Speaker 5: You go to an AFC team that has struggled for 655 00:24:03,988 --> 00:24:06,908 Speaker 5: a long time to find a quarterback, who's hungry, who 656 00:24:06,948 --> 00:24:09,068 Speaker 5: has some nice weapons, and they have some money to spend. 657 00:24:09,268 --> 00:24:10,468 Speaker 4: We just saw this two years ago. 658 00:24:10,708 --> 00:24:13,868 Speaker 5: The Raiders have a lot of the same stink on 659 00:24:13,948 --> 00:24:16,268 Speaker 5: them that the Jets have had. This is not some 660 00:24:16,388 --> 00:24:18,788 Speaker 5: perennial winner. This is not a team that is in 661 00:24:18,828 --> 00:24:19,948 Speaker 5: the playoffs every year. 662 00:24:20,148 --> 00:24:20,908 Speaker 7: It's Roger. 663 00:24:20,948 --> 00:24:23,588 Speaker 5: If you're Rogers, you're not going for one final season 664 00:24:23,668 --> 00:24:26,308 Speaker 5: twenty one, so you can go six and eleven to 665 00:24:26,348 --> 00:24:27,908 Speaker 5: get your head kicked in as a Raider at the 666 00:24:27,948 --> 00:24:30,148 Speaker 5: end of the season. That's not what it's about. And 667 00:24:30,188 --> 00:24:32,148 Speaker 5: that's why personally, I think Rodgers. 668 00:24:31,988 --> 00:24:33,508 Speaker 11: Is really interested in the Rams, because rams are the 669 00:24:33,548 --> 00:24:34,908 Speaker 11: opt there right, rams are going places. 670 00:24:35,028 --> 00:24:35,988 Speaker 4: Never mind the LA thing. 671 00:24:36,068 --> 00:24:38,388 Speaker 5: Just sing the Rams are very good, and they're good 672 00:24:38,428 --> 00:24:42,828 Speaker 5: every single year. Not to mention, you think Rogers wants 673 00:24:42,868 --> 00:24:45,228 Speaker 5: to jump into the NFC West and like go against 674 00:24:45,228 --> 00:24:47,428 Speaker 5: Mahomes and lose to him and all the things they 675 00:24:47,468 --> 00:24:49,468 Speaker 5: have gone. I just it doesn't seem like a if 676 00:24:49,468 --> 00:24:52,508 Speaker 5: you're planning like one final like sweetheart year at the 677 00:24:52,588 --> 00:24:54,708 Speaker 5: end of a Hall of Fame career, this sounds terrible. 678 00:24:54,908 --> 00:24:55,868 Speaker 7: I really do think it does. 679 00:24:56,028 --> 00:24:57,748 Speaker 5: Not to mention, and I said this before, and I'm 680 00:24:57,748 --> 00:24:59,748 Speaker 5: trying to be a diplomatic here. I don't think Aaron 681 00:24:59,828 --> 00:25:01,788 Speaker 5: Rodgers and Tom Brady are best friends, and I don't 682 00:25:01,788 --> 00:25:03,748 Speaker 5: think they hate each other's I just don't think that 683 00:25:03,788 --> 00:25:07,148 Speaker 5: they're boys. That's my intuition, and that's a little bit 684 00:25:07,188 --> 00:25:09,428 Speaker 5: of my insight that I know for a fact not 685 00:25:09,468 --> 00:25:13,628 Speaker 5: only not best friends. Rogers is not Darnold. He is 686 00:25:13,868 --> 00:25:16,908 Speaker 5: a god. He is a legend. Brady is a god. 687 00:25:16,948 --> 00:25:17,748 Speaker 4: He's a legend. 688 00:25:17,828 --> 00:25:21,828 Speaker 5: There's egos involved, there's legacies involved, and there's things involved 689 00:25:21,828 --> 00:25:23,908 Speaker 5: where I don't know if Aaron Rodgers wants to be 690 00:25:23,948 --> 00:25:27,428 Speaker 5: Tom Brady's little project as a new owner. There's something 691 00:25:27,508 --> 00:25:29,948 Speaker 5: going on there, a big picture that I don't think 692 00:25:29,988 --> 00:25:32,348 Speaker 5: would go well for number eight in the Jets right there, 693 00:25:32,468 --> 00:25:35,428 Speaker 5: number twelve for the Raiders. There's everything about it that 694 00:25:35,548 --> 00:25:38,508 Speaker 5: to not like A couple things to like, Sure, we 695 00:25:38,548 --> 00:25:40,588 Speaker 5: love Pete Carroll, who knows if that'll work. Sure we 696 00:25:40,628 --> 00:25:43,228 Speaker 5: love some of the talent I can't ever see. You're 697 00:25:43,268 --> 00:25:44,708 Speaker 5: in Rogers corner. You're like, you know you should do 698 00:25:44,748 --> 00:25:46,988 Speaker 5: Man for your last year. Let's go to the Raiders 699 00:25:47,028 --> 00:25:50,188 Speaker 5: because they're always good. Like it sounds like like one 700 00:25:50,188 --> 00:25:52,028 Speaker 5: of the worst ideas in the history of bad ideas. 701 00:25:52,028 --> 00:25:52,908 Speaker 11: I don't like it at all. 702 00:25:52,948 --> 00:25:54,108 Speaker 7: I am kicking myself. 703 00:25:54,148 --> 00:25:56,628 Speaker 9: I should have said Rogers Brady Reality Show. 704 00:25:56,908 --> 00:25:59,908 Speaker 7: Now, that would be fascinating. We'd watch that all day. 705 00:26:00,428 --> 00:26:03,268 Speaker 9: The other thing, Leaving Las Vegas was a great movie, 706 00:26:03,308 --> 00:26:05,108 Speaker 9: so this could be the same thing for Aaron Rodgers. 707 00:26:05,228 --> 00:26:07,308 Speaker 5: Leaving Las Vegas, Like the guy just drinks himself to death. 708 00:26:07,348 --> 00:26:09,108 Speaker 5: It's a terribly depressing movie and it could end the 709 00:26:09,108 --> 00:26:09,468 Speaker 5: same way. 710 00:26:09,508 --> 00:26:10,148 Speaker 7: That's what I'm saying. 711 00:26:10,148 --> 00:26:12,428 Speaker 9: If you go there, but I just I'll look at 712 00:26:12,468 --> 00:26:15,908 Speaker 9: it this way, Aaron Rodgers is not what he was fair. 713 00:26:16,228 --> 00:26:18,708 Speaker 7: Yeah, sure, yes, four time MVP, but he's no bum. 714 00:26:18,988 --> 00:26:20,948 Speaker 9: I think he's good enough to win with and with 715 00:26:21,068 --> 00:26:23,108 Speaker 9: Pete Carroll there, I get you that kind of I 716 00:26:23,148 --> 00:26:25,268 Speaker 9: wouldn't say it's good deodorant for the stink that was 717 00:26:25,308 --> 00:26:27,988 Speaker 9: coming out of Vegas, for what was that franchise. I 718 00:26:27,988 --> 00:26:30,468 Speaker 9: think he will change. That's the smartest move they've made 719 00:26:30,468 --> 00:26:32,588 Speaker 9: in years. So they're headed in the right direction. You 720 00:26:32,628 --> 00:26:35,108 Speaker 9: could do a lot worse than him. The only question 721 00:26:35,188 --> 00:26:36,868 Speaker 9: I have, and I've never lived in Vegas. I don't 722 00:26:36,868 --> 00:26:38,268 Speaker 9: know a lot of people that live there. I don't 723 00:26:38,308 --> 00:26:42,188 Speaker 9: know how the Rogers drama plays out with their fan base, 724 00:26:42,508 --> 00:26:44,548 Speaker 9: and most of their fan base travels in anyway. 725 00:26:44,628 --> 00:26:46,948 Speaker 7: So I think if you give greater fans. 726 00:26:46,668 --> 00:26:49,028 Speaker 9: Some hope that they can compete with Kansas City in 727 00:26:49,068 --> 00:26:51,788 Speaker 9: the West, I think they could ignore the distraction. Aaron 728 00:26:51,868 --> 00:26:54,028 Speaker 9: Rodgers versus Sam Darnold. This is what I would love 729 00:26:54,068 --> 00:26:55,708 Speaker 9: to be a GM, But this is why I would not. 730 00:26:56,068 --> 00:26:57,868 Speaker 9: I think I would go with the old guy over 731 00:26:57,908 --> 00:27:00,028 Speaker 9: the young guy because I think I trust him more. 732 00:27:00,188 --> 00:27:01,468 Speaker 7: But either way, I think he's. 733 00:27:01,308 --> 00:27:03,948 Speaker 9: Still playing and I like that Max Crosby as just 734 00:27:04,108 --> 00:27:05,788 Speaker 9: like Les Garrett is calling the shot. 735 00:27:05,868 --> 00:27:08,228 Speaker 7: I want him, I want out. I love it. The 736 00:27:08,268 --> 00:27:09,708 Speaker 7: guys aren't staying silent totally. 737 00:27:09,748 --> 00:27:10,668 Speaker 4: DeMarco Kyle. 738 00:27:10,708 --> 00:27:13,388 Speaker 3: There's not many things that I listen to you talk 739 00:27:13,428 --> 00:27:15,108 Speaker 3: and I say here and I respect what you have 740 00:27:15,148 --> 00:27:17,268 Speaker 3: to say, and like, I really really disagree with you 741 00:27:17,308 --> 00:27:19,508 Speaker 3: on this one. And it's like a natural disagreement that 742 00:27:19,628 --> 00:27:20,628 Speaker 3: is coming. 743 00:27:20,348 --> 00:27:20,948 Speaker 4: To the surface. 744 00:27:21,348 --> 00:27:23,308 Speaker 3: I think, haven't you ever worked with anybody that you're 745 00:27:23,308 --> 00:27:25,308 Speaker 3: just straight up not friends with? But it works like 746 00:27:25,388 --> 00:27:27,868 Speaker 3: it actually just comes out on the product and it 747 00:27:27,988 --> 00:27:30,388 Speaker 3: like it tracks like I think this could be a thing. 748 00:27:30,428 --> 00:27:32,388 Speaker 3: I think, no matter if Rogers and Tom Brady don't 749 00:27:32,468 --> 00:27:34,828 Speaker 3: like each other, I actually think that what those two 750 00:27:34,948 --> 00:27:38,788 Speaker 3: like better is building something that's successful in winning and 751 00:27:38,908 --> 00:27:41,668 Speaker 3: leaving their legacy to your point, on a great note. 752 00:27:41,748 --> 00:27:43,348 Speaker 3: And do I think Rogers is going to end his 753 00:27:43,428 --> 00:27:43,908 Speaker 3: career on. 754 00:27:43,868 --> 00:27:44,548 Speaker 6: A Super Bowl win? 755 00:27:44,668 --> 00:27:45,028 Speaker 4: I don't. 756 00:27:45,068 --> 00:27:47,828 Speaker 3: Did Brady? He did not either. I think if they 757 00:27:47,908 --> 00:27:50,868 Speaker 3: sign Aaron Rodgers, you are doing something better than you 758 00:27:50,908 --> 00:27:53,828 Speaker 3: could with Sam Donald, which is you are acknowledging that 759 00:27:53,868 --> 00:27:55,588 Speaker 3: you're not in it. Sam Donald's going to come and 760 00:27:55,628 --> 00:27:57,188 Speaker 3: want like a five or six year career with you, 761 00:27:57,228 --> 00:27:59,508 Speaker 3: a ten year career with you. Rogers knows that this 762 00:27:59,628 --> 00:28:01,668 Speaker 3: is towards the end of it. If you sign Aaron 763 00:28:01,748 --> 00:28:05,028 Speaker 3: Rodgers in Las Vegas, you can take every single draft 764 00:28:05,028 --> 00:28:07,308 Speaker 3: pick that you have and focus on the rest of 765 00:28:07,348 --> 00:28:09,828 Speaker 3: your team, which is what the Raiders need to do. 766 00:28:10,108 --> 00:28:10,668 Speaker 2: If you are. 767 00:28:10,588 --> 00:28:12,668 Speaker 3: Distracted by the shiny object in the room, which is 768 00:28:12,668 --> 00:28:15,468 Speaker 3: trying to draft a quarterback and a non quarterback draft year, 769 00:28:15,668 --> 00:28:17,828 Speaker 3: I think the Raiders are setting themselves back. I think 770 00:28:17,908 --> 00:28:21,268 Speaker 3: Rogers is a great fit. I think personality wise, he 771 00:28:21,388 --> 00:28:23,908 Speaker 3: has Raider nation all over him. Kind of You called 772 00:28:23,948 --> 00:28:27,668 Speaker 3: him petty competitive yesterday, and I think the Rogers breathing. 773 00:28:27,828 --> 00:28:29,788 Speaker 4: I don't think it matters that they don't like each other. 774 00:28:29,868 --> 00:28:33,068 Speaker 3: It's like the Bermuda triangle of success that could work 775 00:28:33,108 --> 00:28:35,748 Speaker 3: out with the Las Vegas Raiders Pete Carroll, Tom Prady 776 00:28:35,868 --> 00:28:38,148 Speaker 3: and Aaron Rodgers. And I think those who enter the 777 00:28:38,188 --> 00:28:41,188 Speaker 3: Bermuda triangle of the Raiders, I think you could get 778 00:28:41,228 --> 00:28:42,748 Speaker 3: tangled up in something nasty. 779 00:28:42,948 --> 00:28:43,628 Speaker 4: It's good take. 780 00:28:44,108 --> 00:28:47,148 Speaker 5: I do think it matters to them, especially to Rise, 781 00:28:47,468 --> 00:28:49,508 Speaker 5: because it's like he's looking for quality of life. 782 00:28:49,628 --> 00:28:51,748 Speaker 11: He has nothing to prove it's done. 783 00:28:51,868 --> 00:28:53,748 Speaker 5: I've done everything, I have all the money, i have 784 00:28:53,788 --> 00:28:55,908 Speaker 5: all the legacy, Like I want a great fit and 785 00:28:55,948 --> 00:28:58,828 Speaker 5: a perfect spot. And it's like they it could work 786 00:28:58,868 --> 00:29:00,868 Speaker 5: and the fans could want them, but like Rogers has 787 00:29:00,908 --> 00:29:01,988 Speaker 5: to want to be there. 788 00:29:02,388 --> 00:29:04,708 Speaker 11: So it's not only the Brady thing. Just think that's 789 00:29:04,708 --> 00:29:05,148 Speaker 11: a piece of it. 790 00:29:05,228 --> 00:29:07,148 Speaker 5: I think it's mostly like the Raiders probably won't be 791 00:29:07,308 --> 00:29:09,668 Speaker 5: very good, and what am I doing? And then there's 792 00:29:09,708 --> 00:29:11,868 Speaker 5: this whole DeVante Adams thing where like we all just 793 00:29:11,948 --> 00:29:13,868 Speaker 5: kind of assume that he wants to play with DeVante, 794 00:29:13,908 --> 00:29:16,548 Speaker 5: and there's this bizarre thing about could they bring DeVante 795 00:29:16,628 --> 00:29:18,948 Speaker 5: back to the Raiders after it was a bizarre deal. Listen, 796 00:29:18,988 --> 00:29:21,788 Speaker 5: of course it's fun to see Carol and Brady and Rodgers, 797 00:29:21,908 --> 00:29:23,508 Speaker 5: and I just don't think it'll happen. And I just 798 00:29:23,548 --> 00:29:25,748 Speaker 5: don't think Rodgers is into it. And I listen, I 799 00:29:25,788 --> 00:29:28,068 Speaker 5: don't report this. I just go with my gut in 800 00:29:28,148 --> 00:29:30,148 Speaker 5: my history. It maybe will be sitting here him like 801 00:29:30,228 --> 00:29:32,388 Speaker 5: Rogers to the Raiders. I just don't think so well. 802 00:29:32,468 --> 00:29:34,188 Speaker 3: And again I always don't know rereel like that your gut, 803 00:29:34,228 --> 00:29:36,908 Speaker 3: you have said that you think he's you think he 804 00:29:36,948 --> 00:29:39,148 Speaker 3: should be done playing like you hope that he said. 805 00:29:39,268 --> 00:29:39,868 Speaker 4: His last nap. 806 00:29:40,068 --> 00:29:41,788 Speaker 8: And that's what we said yesterday was that, you know, 807 00:29:41,908 --> 00:29:43,668 Speaker 8: watching Aaron Rodgers when I was growing up, you want 808 00:29:43,668 --> 00:29:45,348 Speaker 8: to see him leave on a high, right, And I 809 00:29:45,708 --> 00:29:46,508 Speaker 8: agree with Kull a little bit. 810 00:29:46,468 --> 00:29:47,268 Speaker 4: I don't know if that's Vegas. 811 00:29:47,308 --> 00:29:49,348 Speaker 8: But the reason that makes me think this can happen 812 00:29:49,388 --> 00:29:51,028 Speaker 8: is because Pete Carroll's going to be seventy four years 813 00:29:51,028 --> 00:29:52,388 Speaker 8: old this year, right, and he said he's a young 814 00:29:52,468 --> 00:29:54,668 Speaker 8: seventy four. I just don't see him going and getting it. 815 00:29:54,708 --> 00:29:56,268 Speaker 8: And I don't know, sam Donold had a great year. 816 00:29:56,428 --> 00:29:58,188 Speaker 8: Is he going to continue to develop that way? Or 817 00:29:58,188 --> 00:29:59,708 Speaker 8: are they going to go get a rookie quarterback in 818 00:29:59,748 --> 00:30:02,548 Speaker 8: the draft and not waste Pete Carroll's years but have 819 00:30:02,548 --> 00:30:04,908 Speaker 8: time to you know, hopefully this quarterback developed. And then 820 00:30:04,948 --> 00:30:05,788 Speaker 8: I don't know if people. 821 00:30:07,948 --> 00:30:09,988 Speaker 5: What's Pete's goal is like, let's get our let's get 822 00:30:09,988 --> 00:30:12,348 Speaker 5: our bleep together, and like, wouldn't it be cool if 823 00:30:12,348 --> 00:30:14,268 Speaker 5: we made the wildcard round that like they make the playoffs, 824 00:30:14,268 --> 00:30:15,988 Speaker 5: that's great. So let's say they bring in Rodgers and 825 00:30:16,028 --> 00:30:18,188 Speaker 5: do it, and they make the playoffs and then Rogers 826 00:30:18,228 --> 00:30:19,708 Speaker 5: is forty two and he's like I think I'm done, 827 00:30:19,748 --> 00:30:21,228 Speaker 5: I got hurt again, or I'm old, and then he's 828 00:30:21,268 --> 00:30:23,508 Speaker 5: gone and then we are just starting over again and 829 00:30:23,548 --> 00:30:24,908 Speaker 5: we have to get another quarterback. 830 00:30:24,988 --> 00:30:27,628 Speaker 7: So like the Jets thing with Rogers. 831 00:30:27,268 --> 00:30:28,788 Speaker 11: Was let's win the super Bowl. 832 00:30:28,988 --> 00:30:31,948 Speaker 5: Now we got to win now, it's there's no like, 833 00:30:32,028 --> 00:30:34,628 Speaker 5: let's get things started with Rogers and then we'll have 834 00:30:34,628 --> 00:30:35,308 Speaker 5: to change again. 835 00:30:35,388 --> 00:30:36,988 Speaker 11: It's just it's another thing doesn't fit for me. 836 00:30:36,988 --> 00:30:38,028 Speaker 7: We're just got a lot of money. 837 00:30:38,068 --> 00:30:39,708 Speaker 9: Though, if they wanted to go all in to win 838 00:30:39,788 --> 00:30:42,908 Speaker 9: right now, to kind of blank them picks, I mean, 839 00:30:42,948 --> 00:30:45,628 Speaker 9: you could with him at quarterback and say in two years, 840 00:30:45,668 --> 00:30:48,708 Speaker 9: we'll start over anyway, but we're starting over as champion. 841 00:30:49,068 --> 00:30:51,628 Speaker 3: You don't think Kyle that Like they could build something 842 00:30:51,708 --> 00:30:54,308 Speaker 3: around him around to Rogers, build up a team, build 843 00:30:54,388 --> 00:30:57,308 Speaker 3: up your offensive line, like make your trenches great, and 844 00:30:57,348 --> 00:31:00,428 Speaker 3: then it is easier to interchange a quarterback and in 845 00:31:00,468 --> 00:31:01,268 Speaker 3: two years. 846 00:31:01,388 --> 00:31:04,268 Speaker 5: But then are you drafting like because then it's it's 847 00:31:04,548 --> 00:31:06,468 Speaker 5: neo fight. We have no idea if he's good, it's 848 00:31:06,468 --> 00:31:08,868 Speaker 5: just the Raiders made their own bed. It's I think 849 00:31:08,948 --> 00:31:10,708 Speaker 5: Pete Carroll is brought into being an adult, and I 850 00:31:10,748 --> 00:31:11,668 Speaker 5: love the Pete higher too. 851 00:31:11,708 --> 00:31:12,028 Speaker 7: He too. 852 00:31:12,148 --> 00:31:14,908 Speaker 5: Yeah, but you know, okay, so we're bringing Pete Carroll back. 853 00:31:14,908 --> 00:31:17,708 Speaker 5: Your coach is seventy four quarterbacks forty two, Like. 854 00:31:17,788 --> 00:31:18,388 Speaker 4: What are we doing? 855 00:31:18,508 --> 00:31:20,548 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean like at some point, like we got 856 00:31:20,588 --> 00:31:22,148 Speaker 5: to start fresh for something, right. 857 00:31:22,228 --> 00:31:22,468 Speaker 7: Yeah. 858 00:31:22,548 --> 00:31:24,028 Speaker 8: And you think that, you think they go to Jordan 859 00:31:24,068 --> 00:31:26,148 Speaker 8: Love route and bring Rogers in and he knows we're 860 00:31:26,148 --> 00:31:27,828 Speaker 8: going to get a young player that they develop under 861 00:31:27,908 --> 00:31:29,468 Speaker 8: you for the next two three years and then set 862 00:31:29,548 --> 00:31:34,188 Speaker 8: us up for success. I mean, it's happened before, and. 863 00:31:32,948 --> 00:31:34,068 Speaker 7: And I asked Jordan Love. 864 00:31:34,148 --> 00:31:36,748 Speaker 11: This screw is something. I don't think Raiders fans are 865 00:31:36,748 --> 00:31:37,788 Speaker 11: clamoring for Rogers. 866 00:31:37,868 --> 00:31:39,308 Speaker 7: I know, I don't not now. 867 00:31:39,348 --> 00:31:39,828 Speaker 11: It's a myth. 868 00:31:39,988 --> 00:31:42,068 Speaker 9: But you might like him in December. You may hate 869 00:31:42,108 --> 00:31:43,908 Speaker 9: him now. You may hate him now in September, like 870 00:31:43,988 --> 00:31:45,868 Speaker 9: Raider fans, I don't like him, I don't like Rogers, 871 00:31:45,908 --> 00:31:48,028 Speaker 9: but by December you may wind up loving the guy 872 00:31:48,428 --> 00:31:50,348 Speaker 9: because he can still play, he can still help, you know. 873 00:31:50,388 --> 00:31:51,108 Speaker 4: I agree? I agree? 874 00:31:51,188 --> 00:31:53,108 Speaker 5: Yeah, guy, We're also like again, this is not you 875 00:31:53,108 --> 00:31:55,548 Speaker 5: don't bring Rodgers in a vacuum. This is not insert 876 00:31:55,628 --> 00:31:59,108 Speaker 5: quarterback here. This is a cultive personality, a massive media deal, 877 00:31:59,308 --> 00:31:59,828 Speaker 5: a whole thing. 878 00:32:00,108 --> 00:32:01,828 Speaker 7: You know that, like the Jets just went through that. 879 00:32:01,868 --> 00:32:03,748 Speaker 5: It's not that's just part of the thing of bringing 880 00:32:03,748 --> 00:32:06,628 Speaker 5: in Rodgers to change your whole identity as a company. 881 00:32:06,868 --> 00:32:08,868 Speaker 11: And I think that's also something again. 882 00:32:08,988 --> 00:32:11,348 Speaker 3: I think the Raiders need a new identity in certain 883 00:32:11,348 --> 00:32:13,788 Speaker 3: spots of their organization, and I think it would fit 884 00:32:13,828 --> 00:32:16,348 Speaker 3: in Vegas because it is a circus in and of itself. 885 00:32:16,428 --> 00:32:18,308 Speaker 5: I mean, we've said with the same conversation about New 886 00:32:18,348 --> 00:32:20,388 Speaker 5: York City, got perfect New York City. 887 00:32:20,748 --> 00:32:22,508 Speaker 3: We saw him on Broadway and we saw him going 888 00:32:22,508 --> 00:32:24,428 Speaker 3: to the next games and making it to Rios like 889 00:32:24,788 --> 00:32:26,028 Speaker 3: it worked in moments like that. 890 00:32:26,108 --> 00:32:27,628 Speaker 8: I'll tell you what if Max Crosby was a GM, 891 00:32:27,668 --> 00:32:31,908 Speaker 8: he already be a Raider, Max working, you got, you 892 00:32:31,948 --> 00:32:32,188 Speaker 8: got a. 893 00:32:32,268 --> 00:32:35,668 Speaker 9: He tactic raider. He's a renegade. This is what they 894 00:32:35,788 --> 00:32:36,148 Speaker 9: used to be. 895 00:32:36,308 --> 00:32:43,548 Speaker 12: Yeah, good football.
