Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.
Speaker 2: Our two on this Tuesday Dan and the Danette dan
Speaker 2: Patrick Show. That Dan and the dan Nettes. I was
Speaker 2: singling out a Danette, which Danette was I singling out.
Speaker 2: Obviously Todd gets very sensitive. So yes, Todd's here, the
Speaker 2: Minister of humor, Seaton, Paulie and Marvin as well, plus
Speaker 2: yours truly in the back room. Guys, we got a
Speaker 2: new poll question coming up the Monday morning. Quarterback joins
Speaker 2: us on Tuesday, Albert Breer, who had the best day yesterday.
Speaker 2: And you know the common strategy in the NFL is
Speaker 2: that first day of free agency, all right, what did
Speaker 2: we do? What did my team do? Just because you
Speaker 2: do something on the first day doesn't mean that it's
Speaker 2: going to show up, let's say, in December or January.
Speaker 2: But it does feel good, you know here it is
Speaker 2: in March. Maybe you don't have good weather where you are,
Speaker 2: and you're like, what's gonna happen? What can how do
Speaker 2: I pick up my It's like the draft, you know,
Speaker 2: start a spring and you're like, all right, we got
Speaker 2: some guys here, we got some positives here to take
Speaker 2: us in through the summer. But take Alec Pierce, productive receiver,
Speaker 2: not a top ten wide out, but free agency opened
Speaker 2: and he was the object of desire. Twenty nine million dollars.
Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker Junior, the third running back, big playability, not
Speaker 2: widely viewed as the best at his position, super Bowl
Speaker 2: MVP timings, everything, He's getting fifteen million dollars a year.
Speaker 2: That's the richest deal ever for a free agent running back.
Speaker 2: So you start to look at this and you go, well,
Speaker 2: the Chiefs did great yesterday. They got Kenneth Walker. I
Speaker 2: thought they were going to wait for Jeremiah Love. Because
Speaker 2: if you said I can have Kenneth Walker or Jeremiah Love,
Speaker 2: I'm taking Jeremiah Love. But I get that rookie deal
Speaker 2: with Jeremiah Love as well. But here's Kansas City probably
Speaker 2: saying we're number nine. We're not gonna get him. He's
Speaker 2: probably gonna go to the Titans, maybe to the Giants commanders.
Speaker 2: But if I'm Kansas City, you got to you know,
Speaker 2: it's an upgrade over Isaiah Pacheco. You start to look
Speaker 2: at some of these moves and how it's going to
Speaker 2: impact what your team does or doesn't do in the drafts.
Speaker 2: So we'll talk to Albert Breer about that coming up.
Speaker 2: I have the Super Bowl odds after yesterday first day
Speaker 2: of free agency. DraftKings sent this out. The Rams are
Speaker 2: the favorites, followed by the Seahawks. Seahawks and Ravens have
Speaker 2: the same odds. Then it's Buffalo. Then it jumps to
Speaker 2: the Chiefs, Packers, Niners, and Eagles, and the Chargers have
Speaker 2: the same odds, and then it's the Lions. So let's
Speaker 2: look at this. I like what the Rams did improve
Speaker 2: their secondary and they needed to Seattle. You lose Kenneth Walker.
Speaker 2: Charbon A will be back. I believe he's under contract
Speaker 2: with them. The Ravens, that's a big move for them,
Speaker 2: so they went all in. The Rams have gone all in.
Speaker 2: The Bills they go to DJ Moore. The Chiefs had
Speaker 2: a trade then they signed Kenneth Walker. The Packers Rashaun Gary,
Speaker 2: they got rid of him. I don't think they've upgraded
Speaker 2: so far. The Niners. You know you're gonna get a
Speaker 2: future Hall of Famer, and I kind of like the move.
Speaker 2: I think Mike Evans is a great I think he's
Speaker 2: a good receiver. Now he's been great, he's gonna be
Speaker 2: a Hall of Famer. But that's an upgrade for them
Speaker 2: because you know they can get out from underneath the
Speaker 2: Brandon Nyuk contract. I get Kittled back healthy, and I
Speaker 2: give brought pretty some weapons here because that team was
Speaker 2: banged up last year. So the Niners and the Eagles
Speaker 2: have the same odds. I don't know what Philadelphia is
Speaker 2: gonna do with aj Brown. Maybe he ends up with
Speaker 2: the Chargers, which would improve their odds. And then the
Speaker 2: Lions that window. We talk about it all the time
Speaker 2: at window and then all of a sudden it starts
Speaker 2: to go in the other way, the opposite direction. Because
Speaker 2: it looked like Detroit was ready. They were armed in
Speaker 2: dangerous for a three year, four year run. Yeah, Paulie.
Speaker 3: Two years ago in the playoffs, they were up at
Speaker 3: halftime and Lions fans were shopping for Super Bowl travel.
Speaker 3: Last year they missed the playoffs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I know, but you still have you know,
Speaker 2: great receiver, good tight end, you got a good quarterback,
Speaker 2: great left tackle. You paid Aiden Hutchinson, So I mean
Speaker 2: those are great pieces to have to make a run.
Speaker 2: But you know, teams in your division, Minnesota, if they
Speaker 2: get Kyler Murray, they might be back to being a
Speaker 2: playoff team, formidable team. Packers would be good and then
Speaker 2: the Bears were expecting to be good as well. The
Speaker 2: competition level that's changes. These teams don't stay bad for
Speaker 2: that long.
Speaker 4: Well some do.
Speaker 2: And I like what the Raiders did. They spent money.
Speaker 2: They are spending money offensive, defensive line, and they're not
Speaker 2: ready to win now. But I think, how about the
Speaker 2: culture you're going to develop. I think that's the most
Speaker 2: important thing. Are you moving in the right direction, getting
Speaker 2: the right people having momentum in there. I hate losing
Speaker 2: Max Crosby, but it makes sense to lose Max Crosby
Speaker 2: right now. He wants to play, he wants to play
Speaker 2: for a winner, and you're not ready yet. You'd be
Speaker 2: kind of wasting those next two years with him. He'll
Speaker 2: go to Baltimore, and Baltimore is now one of the
Speaker 2: favorites to win the Super Bowl. Right eight seven to
Speaker 2: seven three DP show operator Tyler sitting by. He'll take
Speaker 2: your phone calls, Seaton pull question results from our one
Speaker 2: and what are we looking at an hour two hour two?
Speaker 5: I think we're going to go with one from the
Speaker 5: too doubasis running this m We have one here from
Speaker 5: him with their latest moves and if Fernando Mendoza proves
Speaker 5: to be the real deal. The Raiders are silver and
Speaker 5: back question Mark and his answers, are you bet you
Speaker 5: here they come? Or easy there? It's gonna be a while,
Speaker 5: especially in that division.
Speaker 2: Are they silver and back? Question Mark? Uh, They're not back,
Speaker 2: They're they're they you know, they're they're trending. How's that?
Speaker 2: It definitely feels like they're winning.
Speaker 5: They're going in a in a positive direction for sure.
Speaker 5: Right they have like like one hundred million dollars in
Speaker 5: cap space, they have all these picks they got like they're.
Speaker 2: Doing well right now.
Speaker 5: Yeah, probably the best they've done in a long time
Speaker 5: in terms of like, hey, I think they're actually thank
Speaker 5: you Owen Wilson moving.
Speaker 2: Towards Yeah, yeah yeah. Is that is that Owen or
Speaker 2: is it other Wilson? Luke? Thank you Luke? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: they kind of both.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's Owen who was the blonde, right, Luke has
Speaker 6: the talk Owen?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, I think Luke does it. I feel
Speaker 2: like Luke does too.
Speaker 3: Whose career would you want?
Speaker 2: Uh, Owen? Owen? Is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would be a Wedding Crashers, Yeah, all right,
Speaker 2: and Luke did a movie with me, luked at Old School. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he was in Old School. That's pretty that evens out quickly. Oh,
Speaker 2: old School Wedding Crashers? No, which one you got here?
Speaker 2: You didn't think you were getting that early on a
Speaker 2: Tuesday morning. I need a Yeah, so is that which
Speaker 2: is the better movie? Is that the question you're asking
Speaker 2: right now? Or you could be in either movie? Wedding Crashers,
Speaker 2: Old School? Yeah, I'll let you take a minute. I'll
Speaker 2: let that kind of this is simmer. The whole mood
Speaker 2: just like got very serious, a little intention.
Speaker 6: Can we go back to sports, the easy stuff? Free agency? Please?
Speaker 2: Come on, Todd, did you see either one of those?
Speaker 7: Mode saw all of wedding Crashes? I don't think I
Speaker 7: saw all of olds saw bits and pieces of it.
Speaker 7: I always end up putting it on and it's already
Speaker 7: in the middle, so that's my.
Speaker 2: I can't do bits.
Speaker 6: And but I really liked Wedding Crash. All right.
Speaker 2: You know who's in those movies?
Speaker 7: Yeah, Wedding Crashers had Wilson in it, and uh, who's
Speaker 7: the one from the Notebook that was really cute?
Speaker 2: In that Rachel mccaddas on.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Rachel Mccannchel, that was a great.
Speaker 2: Appearance with Rachael mcco Yes, Rachel McAdam storrible. Yeah, yeah
Speaker 2: she she is. Yeah, wedding crashers old school, all right.
Speaker 2: We're also putting up whose career would you want? Buke
Speaker 2: Wilson Owen Wilson Classic. We had another one there at something.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, Todd's that's right, silver and back.
Speaker 2: Okay, This from Albert.
Speaker 6: Breer another dismissive remark.
Speaker 2: Presuming Tua plays for the minimum this year, the Dolphins
Speaker 2: will wind up paying nearly one hundred and forty seven
Speaker 2: million dollars for two years on his twenty twenty four contract.
Speaker 2: They had him at the time on a twenty three
Speaker 2: point four million dollar option for twenty four, So Miami
Speaker 2: paid over one hundred twenty three million dollars for one
Speaker 2: additional year of Tua.
Speaker 3: Whoooooow stead of a day, stant of a day, stall
Speaker 3: outa day, stannata day.
Speaker 6: This is the style of.
Speaker 2: The s out of the day, brought to you by
Speaker 2: Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 2: By the way, Pauli kept telling me to watch this
Speaker 2: show Paradise, and it's Sterling K. Brown, who is great.
Speaker 2: So I am three episodes in. I was ready to
Speaker 2: bail after two. I fought through the third episode and
Speaker 2: Paulie keeps saying, oh, it pays off, it pays off.
Speaker 2: So then I started watching The Night Agent. I think
Speaker 2: it's season three. I'd watched the other two seasons, and
Speaker 2: I might be moving on from Paradise. Paul It.
Speaker 3: I don't want to spoil anything, but where you are
Speaker 3: it keeps ramping up. I would trust season one. I'll
Speaker 3: defer to a caller or a listener that saw it.
Speaker 3: But Paradise season one turns out really well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm trying.
Speaker 3: It's a burn because they're trying to surprise you with
Speaker 3: certain twists.
Speaker 2: Well, I hate when they go five years earlier, twelve
Speaker 2: years earlier, three days later. I'm going, I don't know
Speaker 2: if they're above ground, below ground, I don't know what
Speaker 2: year it is. It got me confused. Now my attention
Speaker 2: span is that of, you know, a dog or a cat.
Speaker 2: But I'm trying. And then I went, let me just
Speaker 2: go to Night Agent, and all I know what I'm
Speaker 2: getting old reliable yea, No Lincoln Lawyer. That's old, reliable,
Speaker 2: good show. That is a great show. Yeah, great show.
Speaker 3: That show is crushing. I saw the numbers. It's crushing.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I think it was one or two on
Speaker 2: Netflix most watch. But Lincoln Lawyer, I don't know the
Speaker 2: actor who's the lawyer. Nev Campbell is in it.
Speaker 6: But it's good. I like it.
Speaker 2: That's some good characters in there, all right.
Speaker 3: Yes, Paul, that James Marson from Paradise. That's a good
Speaker 3: looking fella. Huh, he's a one seed. Yeah, he might
Speaker 3: be too good looking.
Speaker 2: You and I agree, he might be too good looking.
Speaker 2: And we never have to worry about that. It'd be
Speaker 2: like I wouldn't it be nice if somebody said, man,
Speaker 2: you know, he's just too good looking. Yeah, not gonna happen, Yes, Marv,
Speaker 2: but our.
Speaker 8: Movie starts supposed to be too good looking? Or do
Speaker 8: you need like the Paul Giamatti types.
Speaker 2: He's not a movie star. Yeah, he's not a Martin.
Speaker 2: We always bring up Paul Giamatti, you know, like guys
Speaker 2: who aren't good looking. Yeah, Paul Giamatti. The hell, Wow,
Speaker 2: the hell I do. But I would take Paul Giamatti's
Speaker 2: career over James Marsden.
Speaker 3: Oh, but you get James Marsden's looks because those don't
Speaker 3: go away. Like if he goes into a lull as
Speaker 3: an actor, he still looks awesome.
Speaker 2: James Marston, Paul Giamatti is not going to get a
Speaker 2: role by his looks necessarily. I'd be fine with that.
Speaker 2: He's not going to lose a role because of his looks.
Speaker 2: He's just a great actor.
Speaker 3: Could James Marsden be a really good actor, but he's
Speaker 3: too good looking for us to give him credit for being.
Speaker 2: A great actor. Yeah, it's like a comedian who's good looking.
Speaker 2: He's just not as funny, right, We like somebody who
Speaker 2: does it, somebody who looks funny, yes, Marvin.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's like a comedian that's jack. I don't want
Speaker 8: a comedian that I think can beat me up. Yeah,
Speaker 8: somebody too good looking, but like Brad Pitt or like
Speaker 8: Danze Watchington, those guys that have played other people like well,
Speaker 8: you're way too good looking to play X Y and Z.
Speaker 6: Well that's why the movie stars.
Speaker 2: Vincent Jeremy in Alabama. Hi Jeremy, What's on your mind?
Speaker 9: Six twenty number forty eight? You program number one in
Speaker 9: your heart?
Speaker 2: Dan Okay.
Speaker 9: The question we're having Stell is not old school versus
Speaker 9: writing crashers. It's still Luke versus Owen. Because Bence Bond's
Speaker 9: in both movies. Will Ferrell's in both movies. How do
Speaker 9: you go wrong by picking either movie?
Speaker 2: Oh, there's no wrong answer. I mean that's why we
Speaker 2: have the question. We don't we'll always give you a
Speaker 2: pull question with easy answers. We want to challenge you
Speaker 2: whose career Luke or Owen. I'm going Owen all day.
Speaker 2: There used to be a bar. I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's still there. It's called the Teddy in Los Angeles,
Speaker 2: and it's the Teddy. It's the Roosevelt Hotel, and there
Speaker 2: was a bar there. And I remember going with friends
Speaker 2: of Sadler, and you know, they said, one of the
Speaker 2: guys said, hey, you're going to see a lot of
Speaker 2: names here. Don't embarrass us.
Speaker 6: I go, what am I going to do?
Speaker 9: They go, what?
Speaker 2: You know, just we're not taking pictures. Don't ask for autographs.
Speaker 2: You know, people go here to kind of be able
Speaker 2: to hide. So I all right, I'm good.
Speaker 10: So I walk in.
Speaker 2: First person I see is Jonah Hill. Now this is
Speaker 2: Jonah Hill before Jonah Hill, and he was there with
Speaker 2: Henry Winkler, the Fawns Son. So I'm with the Sandlers
Speaker 2: guys and then they go, hey, this guy right here
Speaker 2: is going to be a big time star, pointing to
Speaker 2: Jonah Hill. I go, okay, well, nice to meet you.
Speaker 2: Walk to the bathroom. I'm walking. Owen Wilson comes out
Speaker 2: as I'm walking in. I go hey, and he goes hey,
Speaker 2: he goes, what are you doing here? I go, what
Speaker 2: are you doing here? And he goes, I don't know.
Speaker 2: And then he kept walking. So I started to I
Speaker 2: saw like four people like you go, oh, that's It
Speaker 2: was like a wax museum, and it was kind of
Speaker 2: weird to just everywhere you looked, you were seeing famous people.
Speaker 2: But they went there so they could hide. And I'm
Speaker 2: in there. I'm being a geek. I'm saying, hey, you
Speaker 2: know who that is over there and that, and then
Speaker 2: you know, Sandler's guys go, hey, we're not doing that here, yes, Marton.
Speaker 2: But they were talking to you like you were like
Speaker 2: some type of civilian. Well, Owen knew who I was.
Speaker 2: I just think he was surprised that I would be
Speaker 2: in there with that ilk. You know, Hollywood famous sports
Speaker 2: famous a little different. But then I had Henry Winkler's
Speaker 2: son and Jonah Hill. They could not stop talking about
Speaker 2: USC football and you know, but you know they weren't
Speaker 2: really famous. But the other people, you know, there were
Speaker 2: a couple of famous actresses in there, and you're like
Speaker 2: you know that, And You're like, okay, maybe I can't
Speaker 2: tell anybody that I can't take pictures. I can say
Speaker 2: you know who I saw nobody? You did not?
Speaker 10: Yeah I did?
Speaker 2: And uh. And then I was in a movie with
Speaker 2: Luke Luke Wilson. He was supposed to protect me when
Speaker 2: I played Abe Lincoln. What it was at the Ridiculous Six?
Speaker 2: Is that what it was?
Speaker 3: Does he step out to get like a quick sandwich
Speaker 3: or something?
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, he has to go to the bathroom. I
Speaker 2: think he has to go to the bathroom. And then
Speaker 2: I'm I'm at the opera and I'm playing Lincoln, and
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, John Wilkes Booth comes by Luke
Speaker 2: Wilson's character. He's like, hey, how you doing good? Good
Speaker 2: I'll be back, And then, of course, you know, we
Speaker 2: know what happens.
Speaker 3: And this is not based on a true story. It's
Speaker 3: kind of that's not exactly how I happened.
Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. The security guy, I hadn't
Speaker 2: go or take a leak.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Can you imagine the president got killed because you had
Speaker 2: to go use the bathroom? All right? Albert Rear, the

Speaker 2: coming up, update the poll results. He is the Monday
Speaker 2: morning quarterback kind of enough to join us on a
Speaker 2: Tuesday morning Albert Brier, who had the best day yesterday. Albert, Oh, hey, Dan,
Speaker 2: I love what the Chiefs did.
Speaker 4: I think, you know, like if you look at kind
Speaker 4: of where they were, I'm going into the day. They
Speaker 4: needed to fill running back, they needed to fill nose tackle.
Speaker 4: They get both those addressed. The reason I really like
Speaker 4: the Kenneth Walker deal. I go back a couple of
Speaker 4: years and I remember, you know, when Derrick Henry, Josh Jacobs,
Speaker 4: and Saquon Barkley did deals on the first day of
Speaker 4: free agency, and there were a lot of people like
Speaker 4: I can't believe teams are spending on running backs all
Speaker 4: of that stuff, And I remember taking a step back
Speaker 4: and thinking to myself, well, look at the three teams
Speaker 4: that did it. It was the Eagles, the Packers, and
Speaker 4: the Ravens, and those aren't dumb teams. And so, you know,
Speaker 4: my thought on it at the time was is this,
Speaker 4: have we gotten to the point now where teams are
Speaker 4: looking at and saying that position has been devalued to
Speaker 4: the point where it's become a value, right, And so
Speaker 4: then I dug into a little deeper talked to those teams.
Speaker 4: It was pointed out to me that Darnell Mooney got
Speaker 4: signed by the Falcons for about the same same at
Speaker 4: about the same rate that Barkley, Jacobs and Henry got,
Speaker 4: which was insane to me. You know when you think
Speaker 4: about the value of those players. So I think that
Speaker 4: the you know, top end veteran running back who makes
Speaker 4: it the free agent market has become a value. And
Speaker 4: so the Chiefs get that. And Kenneth Walker, a guy
Speaker 4: who can plan all three downs at one hundred and
Speaker 4: thirty three catches over his four years in Seattle, something
Speaker 4: they really haven't had in a long time in Kansas City.
Speaker 4: They get Kiris Tonga to fill their nose tackle role.
Speaker 4: They get Alohi Gilman to play safety for him. I
Speaker 4: think Tonga and Gilman, two guys that switched teams last year,
Speaker 4: are ascending now. So they get those guys I think
Speaker 4: on the way up, you know. And I think the
Speaker 4: other thing it does Dan to me, it's really important.
Speaker 4: This is going to be a big draft of the
Speaker 4: Chiefs after the Trent McDuffie trade, and I don't think
Speaker 4: if you're the Chiefs you can count on Jeremiah Love
Speaker 4: falling to you at nine. So by getting Walker, it
Speaker 4: really frees them up to just go get the best
Speaker 4: player with a ninth pick and not have to trade up.
Speaker 4: And they have the ninth, twenty ninth, and fortieth picks,
Speaker 4: so if they want, they can go in and maybe
Speaker 4: get a Travis Kelsey's successor in Kenyon Sadik. They go
Speaker 4: and get a receiver like maybe a Carnel Tape falls
Speaker 4: to them. They can go get a corner like like
Speaker 4: like Delayanne from LSU. You know, you just look at
Speaker 4: all the different things that they could do now in
Speaker 4: the draft, and getting Kenneth Walker opens a lot of
Speaker 4: that up for them. So I really like what the
Speaker 4: Chiefs did all the way around, and I think it
Speaker 4: sets them up to have a really great draft and
Speaker 4: have a different looking team around Patrick Mahomes when he
Speaker 4: gets back off the ACL.
Speaker 2: I'm guessing the Chiefs did their due diligence realizing that
Speaker 2: Jeremiah Love was not going to be there and they
Speaker 2: had had they had to upgrade. So that means Titans, Giants,
Speaker 2: does Arizona entertain the idea of Jeremiah Love that high?
Speaker 4: So I think for all those teams, the question you
Speaker 4: got to ask is, like how quickly are we going
Speaker 4: to get really really good?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 12: Like?
Speaker 4: So the thing about taking a running back that high
Speaker 4: is that like their rookie deal, like that's going to
Speaker 4: be a part of their prime because it's easy to
Speaker 4: plug guys in at that position and you can produce
Speaker 4: almost right away. And so, you know, I think for
Speaker 4: for Arizona, for the Giants, for the Titans, you know
Speaker 4: what it's going to take is a real sober look
Speaker 4: at your roster and saying to yourself, are we in
Speaker 4: a position to do this? Rather than you know, taking
Speaker 4: a tackle or a pass rusher or someone in a
Speaker 4: premium position, and I think that's sort of indicative of
Speaker 4: the overall makeup of the top ten. I made this
Speaker 4: comparison a couple of weeks ago, and I think it's
Speaker 4: a I think it's an interesting one. Do you remember
Speaker 4: the Lions in twenty twenty three what they did when
Speaker 4: they took Jamiir Gibbs and Jack Campbell in the first round, right?
Speaker 4: Do you remember how they were criticized for that Dan
Speaker 4: a running back and an off ball linebacker. Well, you know,
Speaker 4: now three years later, Jack Campbell's first team All Pro
Speaker 4: and Gibbs has made three Pro Bowls, right, and so,
Speaker 4: and if you look at the guys who went up
Speaker 4: premium positions around them, I mean I picked out twelve
Speaker 4: or thirteen guys that were picked right around there, and
Speaker 4: only Christian Gonzalez and Jackson Smith and Jacoba are the
Speaker 4: same level, are better than the two guys the Lions got.
Speaker 4: The reason I'm saying that is because you know, I
Speaker 4: think that's going to be a question a lot of
Speaker 4: teams are gonna have to ask, is like do we
Speaker 4: take a premium position a corner, an edge rusher, a tackle.
Speaker 4: You know, in the top call it twelve picks, or
Speaker 4: do we go with an off ball linebacker in sunny styles,
Speaker 4: or a running back in Jeremiah Love or a safety
Speaker 4: in Caleb Downs. That's sort of the makeup of the
Speaker 4: top end of the draft. Because you don't have a
Speaker 4: Miles Garrett type of edge rusher, you don't have a
Speaker 4: Joe Alt type of tackle. You're gonna have to compromise
Speaker 4: some and so it does make for an interesting decision.
Speaker 4: But I think for the teams you mentioned, the important
Speaker 4: thing is going to be are we ready to take
Speaker 4: a running back and plug them in and maybe pass
Speaker 4: up on somebody who could fill a hole at a
Speaker 4: premium spot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Commanders might be the landing spot for Jeremiah Love.
Speaker 2: If we're talking to Albert Breer, the Monday Morning quarterback.
Speaker 2: I like that the Raiders spent money. I like that
Speaker 2: they went out and they overspent for a center. But
Speaker 2: I got to have the first line of defense for
Speaker 2: my quarterback. I got to start with my center, who
Speaker 2: is a high end center. I like that, and then
Speaker 2: they kind of filled in with maybe players that were
Speaker 2: not too familiar with but they will serve a purpose there.
Speaker 2: The Raiders spent money, did they spend it wisely, So.
Speaker 4: They overspent on Tyler Leanderbaum. But I think it was
Speaker 4: actually a good overspend. Here's the way I look at it, Like,
Speaker 4: I think centers probably a more important position than guard,
Speaker 4: and especially in that offense. So like Trey Smith and
Speaker 4: Tyler Smith are at the top of the guard market
Speaker 4: right now, right around twenty four million. So like, let's
Speaker 4: say the value for Tyler Landerbaum was twenty three or
Speaker 4: twenty four million. Would you rather just spend the three
Speaker 4: million extra and get the player than risk losing them
Speaker 4: to the commanders of the Browns or whoever was in it.
Speaker 4: If you're the Raiders, Like three million isn't that much
Speaker 4: in the grand scheme of things. And if you've got
Speaker 4: to overpay because you haven't been winning, then go ahead
Speaker 4: and do it right. And what you get to me
Speaker 4: when you look at this is a a guy who's
Speaker 4: a great scheme fit. He's a smaller guy for the position,
Speaker 4: but that doesn't matter as much in the Kubiak offense.
Speaker 4: He's athletic, he can pull, so all that's in place,
Speaker 4: And then in that offense they put a lot mentally
Speaker 4: on the center. Right, the center is a huge part
Speaker 4: of the pre snap operation when it comes to setting
Speaker 4: protections and all of that stuff. That takes stuff off
Speaker 4: the plate of the quarterback. So that's going to take
Speaker 4: stuff off the plate of Fernando Mendoza. So by investing
Speaker 4: in Linderbaum, I think you're investing in Mendoza. So that's
Speaker 4: why I like that that move. I think it's a
Speaker 4: scheme fit and it helps you with your young quarterback.
Speaker 4: And then you know, as far as the other things
Speaker 4: they did, I think they took advantage of a depressed
Speaker 4: market for off ball linebacker and going and getting Kwai
Speaker 4: Walker and the Kobe Dean. They're taking a flyer in
Speaker 4: a former first round, taking codity pay. They're bringing back
Speaker 4: Eric Stokes, you know who I think flashed again as
Speaker 4: a former first round or at corner. You know, I think,
Speaker 4: you know, when you get past Lenderbaum, I think you
Speaker 4: see a lot of sensible mid level moves. You know,
Speaker 4: they're not the top of the market, but I think
Speaker 4: they're moves that could make them better, you know, in
Speaker 4: the short term, in the long term. So I like
Speaker 4: where the Raiders spent their money.
Speaker 2: Yesterday, I'm trying to understand the Dolphins. I wasn't surprised
Speaker 2: Malik Willis went there, but I was surprised that why
Speaker 2: not just let this season play out? Why not have
Speaker 2: quinn ewers play. You're not winning anything, so you're going
Speaker 2: to give away one of Malik Willis's you know, one
Speaker 2: year out of three years. It's not a lot of money.
Speaker 2: And I do I do like him. Yeah, I just
Speaker 2: why not just ride this out? You know you're not
Speaker 2: going to be good once again, it's supposed to be
Speaker 2: a good quarterback draft next year. Why not be in
Speaker 2: the mix for somebody who is truly a franchise quarterback.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm with you on all that.
Speaker 4: Like this is very clearly a rebuilding year, like a
Speaker 4: tear it down to the studs year for them, right, Like,
Speaker 4: no question about it. I think it's a credibility play,
Speaker 4: is the way I would look at it. I mean,
Speaker 4: look like, I don't think there's any question that they're
Speaker 4: not going to be great this year. And you know,
Speaker 4: I think you know, over the course of the next
Speaker 4: few weeks, the next couple of months, I mean you're
Speaker 4: gonna see the Dolphins really put a lot of eggs
Speaker 4: in the basket of the draft. And that's been the
Speaker 4: charge of ownership. You know, like when they were going
Speaker 4: out and looking for a new GM and looking for
Speaker 4: a new head coach, a huge part of it was
Speaker 4: what we need to draft and develop better. And that's
Speaker 4: why they go and get a couple guys from the
Speaker 4: Packers and John Eric Sullivan and Jeff Hathley because that
Speaker 4: place has been a player developing machine over the years.
Speaker 2: And so.
Speaker 4: I'm with you on like they need a draft better.
Speaker 4: They had fewer draft picks than any team in the
Speaker 4: league over the last four years. A couple of their
Speaker 4: draft classes out of the last five have been complete
Speaker 4: waste slams. They need to fix that, and they're going
Speaker 4: to try and fix that this offseason. At the same time,
Speaker 4: I mean, you can't be the Cleveland idiots from minor
Speaker 4: from from major league, you know what I mean, Like
Speaker 4: if you're if you're trying to if you're trying to
Speaker 4: build a program, And so I do think like bringing
Speaker 4: in Malik Willis from Green Bay, you know, John Eric
Speaker 4: Sullivan and Jeff Haffley know exactly what they're getting with him,
Speaker 4: at least gives you some credibility that you know, for
Speaker 4: the players who are on hand, we are going to
Speaker 4: give you a chance on a week to week basis,
Speaker 4: and you know, maybe we don't have Josh Allen or
Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes here, but we do have a guy that
Speaker 4: we can game plan with and a guy that we
Speaker 4: can compete with.
Speaker 2: And so.
Speaker 4: Just as far as like getting buy in from the
Speaker 4: players and and and and energizing the team this year,
Speaker 4: I think Malik Willis does that. And you know, I
Speaker 4: view him as sort of a high end bridge to
Speaker 4: whoever the next guy is. And maybe it's somebody like
Speaker 4: in our Arch Manning or Brendan Soresby or a CJ.
Speaker 4: Carr or a Trinidad Chandelis, whoever it is next year.
Speaker 2: Uh, Kyler Murray seems like a foregone conclusion. He's going
Speaker 2: to Minnesota. Just that correct.
Speaker 4: I think he'd liked to go to Minnesota. Yeah, OK, yeah,
Speaker 4: I think that's I think that's a I think that's
Speaker 4: a that's a fair fair guess.
Speaker 2: But if not Minnesota, then where.
Speaker 4: Indianapolis? Like I I you know, do you Here's the
Speaker 4: thing if you're Kyler Murray, because you you're gonna play
Speaker 4: on the minimum next year, right, so money is not
Speaker 4: an object. The Cardinals are basically.
Speaker 2: Paying you next year.
Speaker 4: So the reason Kyler Murray wanted to be cut rather
Speaker 4: than traded is because he wanted to go and he
Speaker 4: wanted to be able to pick his next destination for
Speaker 4: football reasons only, Right, So, if you're Kyler Murray, is
Speaker 4: your best play to go to the Jets or is
Speaker 4: your best play to go to the Colts if it's
Speaker 4: not the Vikings. Right, if you go to the Colts,
Speaker 4: you get to play for St. Shane Stike and you
Speaker 4: get all the starter reps through the spring and summer.
Speaker 4: Maybe Daniel Jones is ready for the opener, but if
Speaker 4: he gets hurt again, then you get in and you'll
Speaker 4: have some familiarity with the players there. And they've got
Speaker 4: good offensive players and guys like Pearce and Warren and
Speaker 4: not Pittman anymore, but Jonathan Taylor, good offensive line. So
Speaker 4: I think those are the things you have to weigh, right, Like,
Speaker 4: if you're Kyler Murray, Minnesota obviously be perfect. And I
Speaker 4: can tell you this, like Kevin O'Connell has looked at
Speaker 4: these sorts of reclamation projects over the last couple of
Speaker 4: months in anticipation of being here, and they had such
Speaker 4: success resurrecting Sam Darnold's career a couple of years ago
Speaker 4: that they're really interested in doing that with someone again.
Speaker 4: So my guess would be, like where your guess is
Speaker 4: that he winds up with the Minnesota Vikings. But I
Speaker 4: think Gino Smith could wind up being a factor there too.
Speaker 4: It'll be interesting to see how it plays out.
Speaker 2: Uh. I bring up Jerry Jones, not to troll anybody here,
Speaker 2: but he's the one who was all in last year
Speaker 2: and then he's gonna bust the budget this year. What
Speaker 2: are they waiting on because I think they were in
Speaker 2: the Max Crosby sweepstakes.
Speaker 4: They were, they were till the end. Yeah, Okay, yeah,
Speaker 4: I would say one name to keep an eye on
Speaker 4: for for them would be would be Trey Hendrickson, especially
Speaker 4: if the market comes down a little bit like it
Speaker 4: seems to have. They did take care, they did address
Speaker 4: the edge rusher question, which is the biggest question for
Speaker 4: them coming into this offseason, and and and going and
Speaker 4: trading for Shaun Gary. But I wouldn't be surprised if
Speaker 4: they're not necessarily done there yet. They've got a young
Speaker 4: player they really like and Donovan Azeraku who was a
Speaker 4: last year. So I think you could wind up seeing
Speaker 4: an addition there. They've obviously got the money tied up
Speaker 4: in George Pickens on the franchise tag, they paid Javonte Williams,
Speaker 4: and they did make the run at Max Crosby. I
Speaker 4: could also see them doing something at Corner here in
Speaker 4: the next day or two. So I don't think they're done,
Speaker 4: but they did make a move right before they start
Speaker 4: free agency and trading for Gary and I and I
Speaker 4: think Rashan Gary is better than some of the edge
Speaker 4: rushers that went out that that that that got paid
Speaker 4: out there on the market. And if they wind up
Speaker 4: with both Gary and Hendrickson, well now you're talking about
Speaker 4: kind of reimagining who you are on the defensive front,
Speaker 4: especially if a guy like Asiak who can take another step. So, uh,
Speaker 4: free agency is not over yet. We're not even twenty
Speaker 4: four hours in, so you know, I think that I
Speaker 4: think the Cowboys defense is going to look significantly different
Speaker 4: by the time we get to the beginning of May
Speaker 4: when the draft is over. And uh, and and and
Speaker 4: maybe we'll see another move or two as part of
Speaker 4: that in the next day or two.
Speaker 2: Good to talk to you is always know you're busy.
Speaker 2: Thank you Albert.
Speaker 4: Awesome, thanks, Dan, appreciate it.
Speaker 2: It's Albert Breer, the Monday Morning quarterback. Yeah, I misspoke
Speaker 2: on Rashaan Gary talking about him being a guy who's
Speaker 2: going to stop the run obviously an edge rusher. So
Speaker 2: that's e me ee me, all right, your phone calls
Speaker 2: coming up, update the poll results, and we will dive
Speaker 2: into the topic here with the NBA, the Atlanta Hawks
Speaker 2: and Magic City Wings and how did we get to
Speaker 2: this point? Oh boy, what was it two weeks ago
Speaker 2: when they announced that they were going to have this
Speaker 2: promotion in Atlanta? Yeh, Orlando, Magic, Magic City Wings, et cetera,
Speaker 2: et cetera. And now the commissioner has put the kish
Speaker 2: on that. We'll talk about that coming up in a
Speaker 2: little bit. We're back after this.
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
Speaker 1: the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio
Speaker 1: dot com and within the iHeartRadio app. Search FSR to
Speaker 1: listen live. Michael and fort Wayne. Hey Mike, thanks for
Speaker 1: holding what's on your mind today?
Speaker 12: Hey Dann, thanks for taking my call. I went back
Speaker 12: after the show yesterday and watched the LA Marathon where
Speaker 12: the Kenyan runner went the wrong way ended up losing
Speaker 12: by less than a second. What I hadn't noticed was
Speaker 12: that the person who beat him was an American, and
Speaker 12: I felt bad for the Kenyan guy. But then I
Speaker 12: also had this conflicting national pride because for Kenyan's marathons
Speaker 12: are like their super Bowl and we won it. And
Speaker 12: then I immediately sought back to the Olympics where in
Speaker 12: the gold medal hockey event the United States beeak Canada
Speaker 12: and in overtime, and all of it just made me
Speaker 12: wonder what country's national pastime will we ruin next.
Speaker 2: That's a great, great question. I don't know. We'll have
Speaker 2: to give that some thoughts. That's his thought provoking is
Speaker 2: would you rather have Owen Wilson's career Luke Wilson's career?
Speaker 2: But thank you for the phone call there Hesper in
Speaker 2: West Virginia. Hesper, Yes, what can I do for you?
Speaker 13: Okay, So you were reading off the odds for draft
Speaker 13: kings for the next Super Bowl, and I was yelling
Speaker 13: three of the entire time, like where how did Denver
Speaker 13: slip off the list? Like we weren't ankle away from
Speaker 13: going to the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2: I feel like I agree. I got one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine,
Speaker 2: ten teams. That's all DraftKings sent me. So I don't
Speaker 2: have the odds for your Denver Broncos, but I know
Speaker 2: that Ramseyhawks, Ravens, Bill's Chiefs, Packers, Niners, Eagles, Chargers, Lions.
Speaker 2: Maybe I could get Dylan on this see if we
Speaker 2: could find the rest of that list to let you
Speaker 2: know where your Bronco stand. But thank you, thank you
Speaker 2: for the phone call eight seven to seven to three.
Speaker 2: DP show email address DP at Danpatrick dot com, Twitter
Speaker 2: handle at dp show. I mentioned this the Atlanta Hawks
Speaker 2: they were going to have a Magic City promotional night
Speaker 2: to pay tribute to the great Wing Place. Magic City.
Speaker 2: That also is a gentleman's club as well, or maybe
Speaker 2: it's the other way around. It's a gentleman's club that
Speaker 2: they also have wings. I don't know if Marvin had
Speaker 2: wings when he and Mario went there when we did
Speaker 2: celebrity family feud. Did you have any wings?
Speaker 10: I did not.
Speaker 6: I was busy.
Speaker 2: Focus.
Speaker 6: Okay, exclusive, exclusive merchandise.
Speaker 2: Okay, So I didn't think much that the Atlanta Hawks
Speaker 2: are going to honor Orlando Magic coming in and call
Speaker 2: it Magic City, and I go, okay, fine, I mean
Speaker 2: there's another enough things to worry about out But then
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, it's all seeing, you know, a
Speaker 2: couple of social media post and you know, are we
Speaker 2: going to have strippers? Are we objectifying women? And you know,
Speaker 2: so it became a larger social issue, or at least
Speaker 2: it was presented that way, and the NBA didn't think
Speaker 2: anything of it when they I guess, okayed this or greenlit.
Speaker 2: I'm assuming the NBA has to be involved in these
Speaker 2: promotional nights. Maybe Atlanta Hawks and you know, Magic City
Speaker 2: decided they were going to do it on their own.
Speaker 2: And you know, it's one of those that would you
Speaker 2: rather beg for forgiveness or you know, ask for permission.
Speaker 2: So the NBA said, no, you can't do it because
Speaker 2: you know the optics of this. Yes, Paul, I've got.
Speaker 3: The original press release from the Atlanta Hawks. They said
Speaker 3: this on February twenty six. It was a promotion night
Speaker 3: to celebrate Magic City, Atlanta's premier strip club. The event
Speaker 3: was not to include dance, which is kind of weird
Speaker 3: that they would invite them, and the Hawks did not
Speaker 3: mention Magic City being a gentleman's club in the press release.
Speaker 3: They called Magic city an iconic cultural institution, and it's
Speaker 3: about their history and impact and it's an Atlanta landmark.
Speaker 6: That was the press release.
Speaker 2: Okay, could Hooters have a night somewhere you know in
Speaker 2: the NBA like what, I don't know where?
Speaker 10: Motion of them?
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, but I mean they keep their clothes on.
Speaker 2: But it feels hypocritical that here's the NBA saying, you
Speaker 2: know what, we're going to draw the line when it
Speaker 2: comes to a gentleman's club that has wings. Meanwhile, what's
Speaker 2: the point spread on the Hawk's Magic game? You know,
Speaker 2: are we worried about the kids? And you know Marvin's
Speaker 2: son is what Lorenzo's twelve?
Speaker 6: Yep?
Speaker 2: Okay, Now he might go to the game and might say, Dad,
Speaker 2: what's Magic City? And all you have to say is, hey,
Speaker 2: it's a club that serves wings. I don't think you
Speaker 2: have to go into you know, Dad went there and
Speaker 2: made it rain. I mean, there's no dancers there. Nobody's
Speaker 2: topless at the Hawks game, although that might help attendance, yes, Todd,
Speaker 2: but kids.
Speaker 6: I'm sure with Google of at you, I don't if
Speaker 6: you're going to take your parents' word for it. What
Speaker 6: is this magic City?
Speaker 5: All?
Speaker 7: About it, and I don't know what kind of pictures
Speaker 7: are going to say, and all of a sudden you
Speaker 7: can realize why they pulled.
Speaker 6: The plug on that.
Speaker 2: Okay, What's what's worse though? That you might have to
Speaker 2: explain that there's a gentleman's club or gambling's readily available
Speaker 2: right on your phone. Son. To me, if you're going,
Speaker 2: what's what's the the worst of these two, I'd say,
Speaker 2: you know, probably gambling, because that is available. I don't
Speaker 2: think a strip club in Atlanta, Magic City with their
Speaker 2: wings are going to allow Marvin's twelve year old son
Speaker 2: to walk in. Yeah.
Speaker 5: See, I feel like you just blew by something, though
Speaker 5: maybe deliberately, But I believe Todd said that they pulled
Speaker 5: the plug.
Speaker 3: He didn't deliver it like that.
Speaker 5: They pulled not pu ll but po like a strippers,
Speaker 5: like a pole. That's well, maybe someone would use to dance.
Speaker 2: We see. The problem is seating. As he sent me
Speaker 2: that yesterday and I ignored it yesterday just like I
Speaker 2: did today.
Speaker 6: That's the first time for the audience, so they don't
Speaker 6: know about anything.
Speaker 2: I went.
Speaker 3: Yes, I did find out from the NBA that day
Speaker 3: to day they don't approve team promotions like if the
Speaker 3: Sixers have something on a Tuesday, they don't have to
Speaker 3: run it by the NBA. So the NBA found out
Speaker 3: about this after the fact, and the NBA statement says,
Speaker 3: we appreciate the team's perspective and their desire to move forward.
Speaker 3: What we've heard from leak stakeholders, fans, partners, and employees,
Speaker 3: and they said canceling the promotion is the right decision
Speaker 3: for the broader NBA community.
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, Mart.
Speaker 8: Most important question for me personally, where's that Magic City
Speaker 8: merch gonna go? They had, they had it all printed out.
Speaker 8: It's like the eighty six Red Sox World Series. Where
Speaker 8: is that going?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'd like to have a hoodie. I
Speaker 2: think they had Magic City hoodies there.
Speaker 10: That's a good conversation starter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yes, Tom, what if they called it.
Speaker 6: Magic City Wings promotion?
Speaker 7: That that wouldn't be enough to get it past the
Speaker 7: goalie instead of Magic City and getting cute that we
Speaker 7: didn't caught a you know, a club or anything like that,
Speaker 7: gentleman's club magic City Wings promotion pretending it's all about
Speaker 7: the wings and there just happens to be girls that dance.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know to.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 2: We can discuss this. We have a whole hour to
Speaker 2: discuss this, tont So Marvin has been there but didn't
Speaker 2: have the wings. I did not you have the thighs.
Speaker 10: Oh and the.
Speaker 2: Final hour on this Tuesday, Dan and the Dance Dan Patrick.
Speaker 10: Yeah,
