Speaker 1: This is maybe the longest rundown we have ever made

11
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: in the history of the show.

12
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 3: I mean it just started out with Gangbusters. I mean, okay,

13
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 3: you know, wake up, you know two has been cut

14
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 3: by Miami, you know all this stuff. Malik Willson out

15
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 3: of the gate, and I'm like, wow, I thought this

16
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 3: quarterback market was gonna be a little slower, and then

17
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 3: Kenneth Walker, Oh, the running back market get a running

18
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:48,959
Speaker 3: back off.

19
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 4: I thought that was gonna be a little slower.

20
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 3: So teams showed you what they think of some of

21
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 3: the draft prospects coming up without.

22
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 2: Quick and it just kept going.

23
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 1: Jordan, I know you liked it that I keep updating,

24
00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: like how many are left of my original top fifty?

25
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 2: Like thirty five out of the top fifty so are gone.

26
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,199
Speaker 1: We're taping this for everyone that's listening as a podcast

27
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: at four pm Pacific, seven pm Eastern. And the Raiders

28
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: just signed two more big linebackers, and more deals keep happening,

29
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 1: so let's just get right into it.

30
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 2: You started with the quarterbacks.

31
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: I wanted to and I'll go to you on this, Jordan,

32
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: to start, Malik Willis, my number one overall free agent

33
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: signs with the Dolphins. Three years, sixty seven million dollars,

34
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: forty five million dollars guaranteed to a you know, we

35
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: heard earlier that he was going to be released.

36
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 2: He's going to the Falcons. We'll get to him in

37
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 2: a second.

38
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: I heard some you know, little tittering out there of like, oh,

39
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: Malik Willis didn't get maybe as much money as some

40
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,839
Speaker 1: of the people who are big fans of him said

41
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 1: he was gonna get. I took personal offense to that.

42
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: It's not about the money, it's about making us happy.

43
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: And Malik Willis is going to entertain the hell out

44
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: of Miami Dolphins fans and me in twenty twenty s.

45
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 5: I just love this.

46
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 6: This is a fit that a lot of people, ourselves

47
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 6: included predicted where Milik Willis come.

48
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 2: Colleen got it right.

49
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 6: Our queen got it right on for Agency Matchmaker earlier

50
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 6: in the week last week. And I just love this

51
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 6: fit because it's very clear by taking on as much

52
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 6: dead money as the Dolphins now have to and the

53
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 6: rest of a tune of by lowest contract and how

54
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 6: decimated their defense is, this is a team that's basically

55
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 6: going to have to overhaul and rebuild many parts of

56
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 6: its defense, but has its quarterback, has its top receiver

57
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 6: in Jalen Waddle, has a great center in Aaron Brewer,

58
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 6: has a top running back in Devin a Chain, just

59
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:29,359
Speaker 6: signed Greg Dulcich.

60
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: Let's go.

61
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 6: And so I think they're just saying, Okay, we are

62
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 6: going to score a lot of points, or work to

63
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 6: score a lot of points, and figure out defense as

64
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 6: we go along, draft and develop those guys.

65
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: I think Malik Willis stepped in day one. He's the

66
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: best running quarterback in the league. I just think he's

67
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: that dynamic as a runner. You combine him in e

68
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: chan no excuses for Bobby Slowak, who's their offensive coordinator,

69
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: not to make this work. But what I think is

70
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 1: really interesting about the overall picture wise, is that this

71
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: contract and kind of this situation, they're kind of threading

72
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: the knee in a way that the Cardinals, for instance,

73
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: aren't trying to where they're paying all that dead money

74
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: to Tua ninety nine million over the next two years,

75
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: but they still are putting some money in at quarterback,

76
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: and the contract is such that if it works out, great,

77
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: we have a great value and he probably gets a

78
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 1: new contract like Sam Darnold did in Seattle, and if

79
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: it doesn't work out, we'll revisit that in a couple

80
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: of years when we're really ready to kind of take

81
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: the next level in the team.

82
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 3: Right when tuist dead money comes off the cap and everything.

83
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 3: So they set themselves up and they also structured it

84
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 3: where basically the big the new money of this contract

85
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 3: doesn't kick in until after this season, so he's only

86
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 3: making about a million and a half in base salary

87
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 3: this year. Now he's got cash guarantees up front. But

88
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 3: that's where you structured over the worst you do some

89
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 3: as we call cap gymnastics here, So.

90
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 2: Forty five million dollars fully guarantee.

91
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 1: It is significant and it's a lot more than justin

92
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: fields for instance, got a year ago to correct.

93
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 3: It's on the same terms with basically a couple million

94
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 3: dollars more year with an added year on to it.

95
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 3: But it's it's kind of the same structure. But I'm

96
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 3: with you in terms of Malik Willis because here's somebody

97
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 3: who came into Tennessee terrible situation, got better in Green Bay.

98
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 3: Then the people who saw him get better and know

99
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 3: how decent of a human being he is said we

100
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 3: want him because we have to reshape the culture here

101
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 3: in Miami. He's a guy we can do this with

102
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 3: because we know who he is, and I think that's important.

103
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 3: If they didn't go after him, everybody would have been like, oh, the.

104
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: Guy would have been a little worried. It would have

105
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: been a red flag. And when he started to hear

106
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: at the constell right and and the GM exactly, and

107
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: when you started to hear at the comment maybe the

108
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: Dolphins weren't gonna go crazy money for Malik Wills, I

109
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: started getting a little worried.

110
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 2: That was a red flag.

111
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: But in the end they didn't have to go crazy

112
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: money because the Cardinals showed us they didn't really want

113
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: to spend that quarterback. We'll get to them, but they

114
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: signed Gardner Minshew, and there wasn't like done a huge

115
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: other market. I don't think for Willis. And that's fine.

116
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: I saw what the network was doing. You did a

117
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: great job on Free Agency Frenzy. You were on there

118
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: for three hours. By fo there is a big buck cooming.

119
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 6: You know.

120
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 1: They were putting up the top one to one free agents,

121
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: and a lot of them they just say, oh, this

122
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,799
Speaker 1: is the NFL dot COM's like fourth free agent.

123
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,479
Speaker 2: They're not saying, you know who made the list.

124
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: But when it was Malik Willis, they were like, oh,

125
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: that was Greg Rosenthal's number one free They almost wanted

126
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: to get the stink off them that Malik Willis was

127
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: the number one overall guy. But I'm with you, Dolphins fans.

128
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: I'm now a fan of your team and me and

129
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: Malik are going.

130
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 2: To ride well.

131
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 6: They've positioned you as the person to blame. Obviously if

132
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 6: this all goes south, I don't believe it. Will I

133
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 6: think that we talked about the contract earlier in a

134
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 6: very very low twenty twenty five number for Malik Willis

135
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 6: relative to a much larger contract in the next couple

136
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 6: of years. When you pair that with the dead money,

137
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 6: as you said Steve. If you are going to I

138
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 6: call it a sprint rebuild, what it is is a

139
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 6: competitive rebuild if you're going to believe that you are competitive,

140
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 6: at least in the offensive phase, and you have to

141
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 6: rebuild so many other parts, including a culture with front

142
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 6: office that's being overhauled as we speak under John Eric

143
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 6: Sullivan and a new coaching staff. You have to have

144
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 6: control at quarterback, and that's what they have while still

145
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 6: thinking that they can be competitive because of the quality

146
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 6: of that quarterback.

147
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 1: So part two of all this, and I think that's

148
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 1: all really well said, because if for some reason it

149
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: went really poorly, Look, they just showed they can take

150
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: a ninety nine million dollars cap hit in Tuo while

151
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: going for a quart If for some reason they're in

152
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 1: the top six or whatever it is of next year's

153
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 1: draft and they like a quarterback, like this is not

154
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:22,799
Speaker 1: cross backs.

155
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 2: That off.

156
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the Falcons though, which we're in a

157
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: really interesting situation. I wasn't expecting to go so high

158
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: on the Falcons on our show today, but.

159
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 2: Tuas going there.

160
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, your guy, he's essentially signing for a minimum contract

161
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: because a million three. Because the Dolphins are paying him

162
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: whatever it is, thirty six something like that guaranteed, and

163
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: he's gonna be their lefty's starter to hold the fort

164
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: for Michael Pennox or is it just holding the fort?

165
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 4: I think could be more than holding the fort.

166
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,799
Speaker 3: And here's and here's the main reason why first off

167
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 3: two is trying to resurrect his career. Right, here's somebody

168
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,720
Speaker 3: who's also an ideal scheme fit for Kevin Stefanski does right.

169
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 3: This is a timing offense, get the ball out, West

170
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 3: Coast offense, let the receivers make the run after catch.

171
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 4: That's what he will do. Well.

172
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 3: Okay, Plus, if Michael Penix is still rehabbing all off season,

173
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 3: Tua's taking all the snaps, right, He's getting all of

174
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 3: the run people are gonna make. Okay, this guy's moving

175
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 3: our offense. We were able to set it so if

176
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 3: Pennix can't get in there by training camp and get

177
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 3: reps in and they look like it's something Kevin Stefanski,

178
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 3: who's been through like quarterback hell the past couple of years,

179
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 3: it's like, I'm cool with this guy.

180
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 4: That's what they're gonna do.

181
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: And he's essentially Stefanci's guy in a way that Michael

182
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: Pennix is not. And when I think of what Stefanski

183
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 1: likes quote unquote, you know, I do think of like

184
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: a point guard type of quarterback, a Kirk Cousins type

185
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: of quarterback, and that can be to a tongue of

186
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: Bailoa at his best. So we'll see it an It's

187
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 1: an interesting balance that they're.

188
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 3: And real quick to add to that. I mean, who

189
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 3: was a decision maker in this. Matt Ryan was right.

190
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 3: So Matt Ryan probably was like, oh, yeah, Tua is

191
00:07:58,880 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 3: a guy who can come.

192
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 5: In huntingham erasure.

193
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 4: Well, no, I'll give you.

194
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 1: What about the theory that Matt Ryan is setting up

195
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: a situation because you know who has missed some games

196
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: Obviously the concussions are a big part of the risk

197
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: that Matt Ryan is setting up a situation where the

198
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: weak ones starting quarterback is Matt Ryan.

199
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 5: Wow.

200
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 6: Wow, that's how you know it's the regular scenes not

201
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 6: that crazy.

202
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 3: They've got dead money. They've got dead money. Uh you

203
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 3: know flashbacks with Matt Ryan.

204
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 2: Remember they still that's why they brought him back.

205
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 5: It's on his current contract.

206
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 6: What I really like about this one is the I'm

207
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 6: a huge geek about lefty quarterbacks. You guys know this,

208
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 6: and you don't really have to change anything about your

209
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 6: offense in terms of just the way that you have

210
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 6: first of all, the way your tackles play on tackle

211
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 6: and then and then also the way that you layer

212
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 6: out like your splits for your receivers. You don't have

213
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 6: to change the math or the formation to flip the

214
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 6: sides on that.

215
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 5: So that's great.

216
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 6: I loved our friend Mina Kimes his tweet about how

217
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 6: if you combine the two quarterbacks you actually get someone

218
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 6: who throws to all parts of the field because Mike

219
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 6: Pennix only throws to the perimeter. To a tongue of

220
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 6: my law, loves to throw over the middle. And the

221
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 6: thing that I like the most about this is that

222
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 6: good football teams understand that there is so much valuable

223
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 6: value in being in the quarterback rehabilitation market because no

224
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 6: matter what happens this season, however much he does or

225
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 6: does not play, or however much Mike Pennix does or

226
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 6: does not play, there is future value in one of

227
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 6: those two players.

228
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: By loo like, it's the same thing as fantasy football,

229
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: the same thing as doc life whatever, Yes to a

230
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: tongue of Viola was in the end incredibly overpaid by

231
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. But if you find a quarterback that at

232
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 1: one point was valued enough to make fifty to sixty

233
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: million dollars a year and you get them for one,

234
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: that's generally just good business to do. The Falcons were

235
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: very active today signing kind of lesser free agents. Nick

236
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: Folk got a two year contract. Austin Hooper, who's a

237
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 1: backup tight end.

238
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 4: He was full circling game. Yep, he gets.

239
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: Three million dollars. That was a good backup for the Patriots.

240
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: Alamadas z a kias another full circle guy he started

241
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: with the Falcons, is going to be a depth receiver.

242
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: Johan Dotson got two years, fifteen million dollars.

243
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 2: So just some depth.

244
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 4: I don't think they're done there.

245
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 2: Interesting, okay.

246
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 4: Rashicha heed man, don't don't know he's got he's been.

247
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:11,839
Speaker 2: Got higher washing.

248
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: You know, Steve has been on the air. He goes down,

249
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 1: he takes like he got her break. He's gonna be

250
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: with the Seattle Seahawks. Good teas for later in the show.

251
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 1: We go the Las Vegas Raiders. I had to drive

252
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: our producers a little cool. Yeah, babe, last second, you know,

253
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: I saw them down in the rundown and I thought,

254
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 1: has a team ever spent more money in one day

255
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: than the Las Vegas Raiders spent today.

256
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 4: I'm sure our research last year went kind of hard.

257
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: They did. But let's make the list here. Tyler Linderbaum

258
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: is the highest paid center in the league now by

259
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: fifty percent, sixty million dollars guaranteed. It used to be

260
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: who was it? Kreed Humphrey at eighteen million dollars a

261
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: year was the highest. Now Linderbaum is twenty seven million

262
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: dollars a year. And the fact it was a three

263
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: year deal was apparently where the Ravens just weren't even

264
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 1: gonna come close to that, because like they wanted some

265
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: long term security if they're gonna be giving that much money.

266
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: But Linderbaum's thinking, I can get back to the open

267
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: market again in three years, and he gets it. Monster deal.

268
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: Quitty pay goes to the Raiders for sixteen million dollars.

269
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 1: The edge rushing market went crazy today and he actually

270
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: ends up being about where he was in my ranking,

271
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 1: real coreer. The edge market kind of went almost in

272
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: order of my rankings today, and May was, Yeah, that's

273
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: the most important thing. Pay was like in the middle

274
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: for sixteen per right before we go on air, Nikobe

275
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: Dean signs for three years thirty six million dollars twenty

276
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 1: million dollars guaranteed to be their off ball linebacker, but

277
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: not the only one. I was like, well, maybe if

278
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: Okay they signed to Kobe Dean. That was the first

279
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: one I heard. That means maybe the Cowboys are gonna

280
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,559
Speaker 1: sign kway Walker because our friend Jane Slater was saying

281
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: they're going to sign a name brand off ball linebacker soon,

282
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 1: and that was about an hour before this happened. But no,

283
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 1: quay Walker signs with the Raiders too, quay Walker and

284
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: Nakobe Dean for a combined sepenty six million dollars. Kuay

285
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,439
Speaker 1: Walker gets four million dollars overall and about six million

286
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 1: dollars more guaranteed, so he gets valued more.

287
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 2: But that's not all.

288
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: Jalen Naylor, the wide receiver from the Vikings who made

289
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: it into my top seventy five free agents, good middle

290
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: tier guy. Twenty three million dollars guaranteed for Jalen Naylor

291
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: to be a key piece of their offense. Three for

292
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,599
Speaker 1: thirty five overall, and then they also re signed a

293
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: guy I liked as kind of a reclamation project for

294
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: another team. But actually Malcolm Koontz, who was coming off

295
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 1: of torn acl gets eleven million dollars. And our guy

296
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: John Spytech, who is trying to act cool, Yeah, trying

297
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: to act all cool that like, you know, we're gonna

298
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 1: do things the right way and we're gonna build it

299
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: up slowly. I think this could be doing things the

300
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: right way. But no one spent more money on Monday

301
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: than the Raiders. Do you think it was money well spent?

302
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, we'll see once they get on the grass.

303
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 2: It's not an answer.

304
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 6: It is an answer because we thought the Raiders were

305
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 6: going to be much better than they actually were.

306
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 5: This last season.

307
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 6: Here here's what I like and am wary of about

308
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 6: what the Raiders have done. I think that a lot

309
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 6: of these guys are floor raising players, particularly on the

310
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 6: defensive side. I think you could say Jalen Naylor is

311
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 6: a Jacoby Myers replacement right in terms of what they

312
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 6: want him to do in the offense. But a lot

313
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 6: of these defensive guys will raise the floor of that

314
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 6: defense while you draft and develop behind them. That is

315
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 6: the point of spending this much money in free agency

316
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 6: is to set the table not just not for this

317
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 6: year's draft specifically, but for the next two years of

318
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 6: draft classes for this team. Now that they have stockpiled

319
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,599
Speaker 6: picks and gotten rid in part by getting rid of

320
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 6: Max Crosby, then also they have so many draft picks

321
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 6: and you need to rebuild this team in a big way.

322
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 6: The Linderbaum signing I think we can look at in

323
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 6: a vacuum here because I look at it as yes,

324
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 6: it's an overpay, right, Yes, it's an overpay born of

325
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 6: desperation to fix that offensive line that was a disaster

326
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 6: last season, and to get a couple of other players,

327
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 6: including Jackson Powers. Johnson kicked outside to guard where he

328
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 6: look where he's better. But also at the same time,

329
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 6: it's a necessary ad for them because you're basically paying

330
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 6: this guy to do two jobs. One protect your rookie

331
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 6: quarterback and reset the identity of the offensive line, and

332
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 6: to work in tandem with the play caller Clint Kubiak,

333
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 6: to develop this offensive scheme and to say the things

334
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 6: that the quarterback just doesn't know yet. Fernando Mendoza future

335
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 6: number one overall pick. You need a even more than

336
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 6: a top receiver. You need a great center to settle

337
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 6: in a rookie quarterback in this way, and I think

338
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 6: that's an outstanding guy to do it.

339
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 1: And you help a rookie quarterback with a great run game,

340
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: which I think whereas Linderbaum really fits with Kubiak and

341
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 1: you can do everything that Kubiak wants to do with Linderbam.

342
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: If there was any criticism in Baltimore, it maybe was

343
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: not just the pass pro but maybe the communication and

344
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: like there were a lot of free rush they he

345
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 1: did not have his best year. You did hear a

346
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: little bit of pushback on how Linderbaum was viewed. But

347
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: the Steelers, I mean, the Raiders had to go so

348
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: high because the Ravens were willing to pay a lot

349
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: of money too. Reportedly they went up to four for

350
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: eighty eight, which is the pretty big difference per year,

351
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: about five million dollars per year. But they obviously believed

352
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: in him that much to give him that much money.

353
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 1: And to me, if it's kind of like the Patriots

354
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: a year ago that when they made all those deals,

355
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: I like, if they can hit half of these, that's

356
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: a win.

357
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 2: And that's how I feel with this. The Patriots ended

358
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 2: up hitting more than half.

359
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, but ultimately, like between kway Walker and Kobe Dean,

360
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: if one of those hits great, Quitty pay and Koons

361
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: if one of those two hits great, and then Linderbaum,

362
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: you got to be right well, Lindenbaum, I.

363
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 3: Mean, like you said, it was born out of competition

364
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 3: in terms of just you know who was bidding for him.

365
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 4: We know how effective he can be.

366
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 3: But your point about this being a floor raising group,

367
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 3: Look where these guys came from. I don't think there's

368
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 3: one guy on this team that came from a team

369
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 3: with a losing record or historically has lost. That's what

370
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 3: the Raiders have to get out from. They've got a

371
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 3: mindset and that building where losing is okay, point right.

372
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 3: So you've got to bring in Remember they traded for

373
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 3: Taron Johnson too, you know who is one of my

374
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 3: favorite slot defenders in the secondary. So guy, guys who've won,

375
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 3: there's gonna be some some player accountability in there, which

376
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 3: is something that the Raiders like Max Crosby was the

377
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 3: one driving that, but A Bought the only one driving

378
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 3: that with the Raiders.

379
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 4: So I think that's the part they've got to nail.

380
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 4: The draft. I love that that's the most important for

381
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 4: the draft.

382
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: I do love that idea, and I'm glad you brought

383
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: up Dron Johnson, who we did a show Sunday night

384
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 1: and at that point we thought he was cut, but

385
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: right after we finished, he ended up going to the

386
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: Raiders for pickswap and they're paying a lot of money

387
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: and they did. They're like a lot of teams, but

388
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: they were the most extreme that you have to hit

389
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: a floor, like you said, raising the floor as a team,

390
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 1: but literally a salary cap. Yeah, for how much money

391
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: they had to spend and they had one hundred and

392
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: twenty million dollars. They had to spend all this money,

393
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: but man, they took some big risks, quitty paying kway

394
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: Walker where guys, I think that ultimately disappointed their previous teams.

395
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: They have high ceilings and our big boomer bus type players.

396
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 2: But what a mix.

397
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: The Raiders fans out there, including yes, Steven can be

398
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 1: a lot more excited about their team.

399
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty six.

400
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: All eyes were on Inny today, Hey, because that's where

401
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: our guy, Alec Pierce was top five free agent available,

402
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: my favorite wide receiver available, and he ends up staying

403
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 1: put like we predicted on this show four years, one

404
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 1: hundred and fourteen million dollars to stay with the Colts,

405
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: depending on how you want to do the math. He's

406
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: around a top ten wide receiver right now in terms

407
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:30,479
Speaker 1: of average value. Sixty million dollars fully guaranteed for Alec Pierce.

408
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 1: We're going to get into the Michael Pittman trade, but

409
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 1: I do want to just even mention it before we

410
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: get into Pierce, because to me, they're combined. They decided

411
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: to keep Alec Pierce and then they trade Michael Pittman

412
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: for essentially nothing to the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was kind

413
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 1: of like a salary cap dump of Michael Pittman, but

414
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 1: you decide to keep Alec Pierce. Jordan and I have

415
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: talked so much about Alec Pierce and Daniel Jones on

416
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: the show that I want a fresh voice.

417
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 2: I go, and he might be Patrick Claybohn's favorite player

418
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 2: just as the whole league.

419
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: Yes, he is twenty what two yards per catch over

420
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: the last two years, just absolutely outraged putting up nineteen seventies.

421
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 1: Like you know, Don Corielle Chargers numbers in terms of

422
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 1: those yards per catch? Do you think not only is

423
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: he worth this, but like, do you expect to see

424
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 1: maybe a different Alec Pierce a bigger role with all Well.

425
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 4: That's the main part.

426
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 3: I mean, they did not sign him to this type

427
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 3: of money to make him be a part time d threat.

428
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 3: You know, he's he's gonna have to be much more

429
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,679
Speaker 3: of a joker in terms of intermediate right he can

430
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 3: he can run all the routes. You're seeing him right here.

431
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 3: Just hit him on this quick, you know, kind of

432
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 3: flag route to the back of the end zone. But

433
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 3: they just they need to use him more, and they

434
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 3: paid him to get rid of Michael Pittman.

435
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:39,159
Speaker 4: I mean Pittman.

436
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 3: His production was twice of Alec Pearce's in terms of,

437
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 3: you know, overall moving the sticks and the catches. So

438
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 3: that's what Alec Pearce is going to become. But they're

439
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 3: also a tight and heavy offense. I mean, so that's

440
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 3: what they're you know, they're part of. But they've gotta

441
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 3: they've got to draft and develop. This is part of

442
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 3: the salary cap shell game. This also tells you they're

443
00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 3: saving some dollars to pay Daniel Jones. So that's what

444
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 3: part of this is about.

445
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 2: Two and they did. They've shown at receiver.

446
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: Jordan's mentioned sometimes a team like the Rams will trade

447
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: or sign, you know, position, maybe they haven't been able

448
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: to draft and develop well. Who drafts and developed receivers

449
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:17,400
Speaker 1: better than the Colts. Pittman, Pierce down, see who's still there.

450
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: But like Chris Ballard drafted all of those guys, and

451
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,439
Speaker 1: so ultimately you trade Pittman with one year left on

452
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: his contract. But I think Pierce was the more unique

453
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 1: the skill set and was just starting to reach his peak.

454
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 2: I mean a thousand yards on forty seven.

455
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 4: Guess yeah, that's crazy.

456
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

457
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 6: I think you look at this particular move with three

458
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 6: interconnecting mechinations with it. One is that the Colts obviously

459
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 6: needed to buy themselves a little bit of time, and

460
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 6: that's why they put the transition tag on Daniel Jones.

461
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 6: They needed to see his touch points and coming back

462
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 6: from this injury. Those needed to be kept internally so

463
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 6: that the team has full view and sort of quote

464
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 6: unquote control over the rehabilitation process versus an external unknown.

465
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 6: And then they also needed other teams to tell Daniel

466
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 6: Jones what his market really is relative too or isn't

467
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 6: or isn't relative to the Achilles tear. Unfortunately for him.

468
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 6: That's one mechanation. The other one is this move plus

469
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 6: the combination of getting rid of Michael Pittman tells me

470
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 6: that they are ready to build a complimentary route tree

471
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 6: around Tyler Warren specifically and Alec Pierce Josh Downs obviously

472
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 6: in the mix as well. But having those guys in

473
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 6: the emergence of Tyler Warren and all the things he

474
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 6: can do in the seam and in the underneath an

475
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 6: intermediate parts of the field, Alec Pierce expected to do

476
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 6: a little bit more of those things too. You can

477
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 6: see what their vision is. And of course once again

478
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 6: we have the question about the quarterback to start the

479
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 6: Colt season.

480
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: I love Michael Pittman, but he is such a rugged player,

481
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 1: and he's only twenty eight twenty nine years old. But

482
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 1: Pierce's pure speed and sighe is just more unique now.

483
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 4: He fin fifty fifty.

484
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: He fits Pittman as a Pittsburgh Steeler, And it is

485
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: funny think about him with the Steelers because they didn't

486
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: used to want to be spending any money. First of all,

487
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 1: on day one of free agency that they were not

488
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: that team. And then at the receiver position. They've been,

489
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 1: you know, anxious to do so in recent years, and

490
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 1: now here they are with DK metcalf in Pittman. That

491
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,479
Speaker 1: is a that is a tough, rugged, not you know,

492
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: in Pittman's case, particularly fast like duo, but a group

493
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 1: that you know, can take your lunch money here, and

494
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 1: then they give him three years fifty nine million dollars

495
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: like a contract extension. He had one year twenty two

496
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 1: million dollars left, so his average actually goes down. It's

497
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 1: a reasonable deal, I think for for what they got.

498
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: We don't know the guarantee.

499
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, you've got any Yeah, Darnel Washington, you know

500
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 3: that in the rest of their tight ends to it.

501
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 3: I mean, they've got some dudes who will steal your

502
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 3: lunch money. And so that's how they want to play football.

503
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 3: They clearly have identified how they want to play football.

504
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers, you know, we're all expecting him to be back.

505
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 3: So they're like, forget the deep ball, Okay, we want guys.

506
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 3: You're going to catch the ball, take a point ten

507
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 3: to eighteen yards and just move the change, dig you out. Yeah,

508
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,399
Speaker 3: that's exactly That's exactly what they want to do. And

509
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 3: to me with the Colts. Also, what the Colts identified

510
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 3: by getting rid of him is they're going to pick

511
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 3: up another receiver in the draft to develop, like you said,

512
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,439
Speaker 3: and it's funny how you imagined. You know, here's the

513
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 3: Colts developing receivers. That's what we always said about the

514
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 3: Steelers for years.

515
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 2: True.

516
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 3: I mean they were always drafting guys like Antonio Brown

517
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 3: in the third round and developing them in the Pro

518
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 3: Bowl players year after year.

519
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 4: And now it's the Colts who are doing.

520
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 6: Though Daniel does significantly less known issues.

521
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,159
Speaker 1: Yes, good quite yes, Daniel Jones. By the way, according

522
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: to Albert Breer, I thought this was interesting. Was asking

523
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 1: for close to fifty million dollars and the Colt per year,

524
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: and the Colts were offering close to what Sam Darnold

525
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: got a year ago, which was about three for one hundred.

526
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 1: While we're here, the Steelers also active in terms of

527
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: their secondary ad Jamel Dean. Yes, I like thirty six

528
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 1: million dollars over three years. Good zone corner. You know,

529
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: they're dynamic there in the back end with Joey Porter

530
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 1: Junior as Sante. Samuel Junior also signed on Day one.

531
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 1: Little surprising there that makes me feel better because I

532
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: always like Santi Salmon junior.

533
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 2: One year four million dollars.

534
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: And then arden Key also went to the Colts and

535
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 1: Cole Holcomb went back to the Steelers. So there's your

536
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 1: Steelers in Colts News. Let's get to Mike Evans. I mean,

537
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:15,120
Speaker 1: I almost feel like we've insulted him in the same

538
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: way that the Bucks insulted him. He has to go

539
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: to San Francisco to get his top dollar. And you know,

540
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: soon after that, you know, the Glazers, the ownership sends

541
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: out this long thank you about they want to honor

542
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: Mike Evans in the Hall of Fame, and that's all great.

543
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 1: It was just look if you wanted to show the respect.

544
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 1: So the man is money, but he's heading out to

545
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: the most fascinating division in football, the NFC West.

546
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 2: What do you think?

547
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 6: And you guys know that I've loved watching Ricky Piersoll develop,

548
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 6: But Mike Evans is the ex receiver, the number one

549
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 6: receiver on the San Francisco forty nine Ers, as dominant

550
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 6: a player as we've seen in recent years at the

551
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 6: position year over year over year minus the injuries recently,

552
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 6: really consistent player and wants to go try to win

553
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,160
Speaker 6: a Super Bowl and the forty nine ers.

554
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 1: Anno, because the Bucks, I don't know, have as much

555
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 1: of a chance to win the Super Bowl as the

556
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:05,679
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers.

557
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 2: Maybe not.

558
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 6: The forty nine Ers gained steam last season where the

559
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 6: Bucks fizzled out, and Mike Evans I will never forget

560
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 6: how frustrated he was at the end of that season.

561
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 6: It's not to say any that he holds any hard feelings,

562
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 6: of course, not to the organization that he loves so much.

563
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,919
Speaker 6: But this change of scenery a famous landing spot for

564
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 6: a West Coast receiver.

565
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 5: In the NFC West.

566
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 6: I cannot love this anymore if he's not going to

567
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 6: be with my beloved Buccaneers. I love that he's going

568
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 6: to the NFC West. I love that he's going to

569
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 6: the forty nine Ers. I cannot wait to see what

570
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 6: Kyle Shanahan does with him.

571
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 3: It's such an arms race of what you're seeing in

572
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 3: the NFC West the past couple of days. You know,

573
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 3: you look at Mike Evans, who so okay, we're watching

574
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,919
Speaker 3: Jamis wins and throw him balls. This is almost a

575
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 3: Larry Fitzgerald situation with Mike Evans. He's going into the

576
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame, probably on the first ballot. Mike Evans is.

577
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 3: But just imagine if he had a consistent quarterback like

578
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 3: Larry Fitzgerald, he had a couple of years with Kurt,

579
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 3: a couple of years of Carson Palmer, or two good

580
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 3: years of Colin mur everybody else.

581
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 4: He'st Max Hall.

582
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 3: That's what Mike Evans was doing. Now he's got Rock

583
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 3: Purty in an offense that's going to get him the ball.

584
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,440
Speaker 5: Thank you for taking the indirection go to the perimeter.

585
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, yea, thank you for taking the indirection dot at

586
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield that I usually take.

587
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,239
Speaker 4: I mean, it is what it is. I mean, it

588
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 4: is what it is. I mean.

589
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: But so the lack of respect thing, I think is

590
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: interesting because the way I watched this unfold, it kept

591
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: being his agent, you know, talking to the insiders, and

592
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: they credited him, so I'm not like right source outing

593
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: and they were like, hey, he's really got to go

594
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 1: to free agency this time. And then like a week

595
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,640
Speaker 1: a month later, Hey, we really mean it, he's really

596
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: going to go to free agency this time. And they're

597
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 1: trying to like drum up this market. And then you know,

598
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 1: right before freegency starts like we made it, guys, he's

599
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: not gonna sign with the Bucks. And then I see

600
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: something that it could get upwards of twenty five twenty

601
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 1: seven million dollars per year, and I'm like, wow, this

602
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: is a lot of Mike Evans stuff. And then he

603
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 1: settles quote unquote for like a three year up to

604
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: sixty million dollar contract. I'll be very interested to see

605
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: the actual numbers, but do the math. That's a lot

606
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: less than twenty seven a year. And ultimately, but he

607
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: kind of did feel disrespected, Like if the Bucks were

608
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: willing to go to the mat for him financially, I

609
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: bet he'd be a buccaneer and they didn't. Well here

610
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 1: and now he's a forty nine er and I love

611
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 1: it because all I want is entertainment.

612
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 2: Me.

613
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 4: Here's the other thing that's going.

614
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 3: While we're on that line, what if Florida teams love

615
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,639
Speaker 3: to tout is their ace in the hole? Yes, no,

616
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 3: stay InCom tax Yeah, He's like, I'm gonna take less

617
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 3: money and go to California where they where they pick

618
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 3: your pocket with taxes. So you talk about disrespect, but

619
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 3: at the same time, I don't blame the Bucks.

620
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 4: This is the let's get.

621
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,640
Speaker 3: Rid of a guy a year sooner than a year later, right,

622
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 3: this might be their one.

623
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, and it's a great I'm glad you brought that up, Steve,

624
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 6: because it's not They've been preparing for the possibility that

625
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 6: Mike Evans retires for years now with the way that

626
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 6: they've drafted and developed receivers that are currently on the roster.

627
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 6: So I think it's hard to blame them for saying,

628
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 6: hey man, we thought that it was maybe going to

629
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 6: be over by now.

630
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 1: The only I could give him would be they kind

631
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: of in the end chose Chris Godwin over him, and

632
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: he didn't look a one hundred percent back for much

633
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 1: of life. I think it would have been very tough

634
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: to justify. I agree with you, Jordan, that it would

635
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 1: like to pay him and Godwin that much money at

636
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: that salary.

637
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 4: Very the lead man.

638
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 1: What they signed, that's right. Why they did that's uh.

639
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: Coming up later in the show, A little buccaneer stuck.

640
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,199
Speaker 1: Let's take another break and we'll be back in just

641
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 1: a few minutes here on the NFL channel. Back on

642
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: NFL Daily, It's time to start talking about that.

643
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 3: EDR.

644
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, teased it a little earlier.

645
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 1: One of the big memories I had from free agency

646
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:44,239
Speaker 1: last year is when Milton Williams was a Panther for

647
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: like twenty five minutes at least according to some of

648
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 1: the reporting that was out there, and then suddenly he

649
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 1: wasn't because the Patriots paid more money. Well, this time,

650
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: the Panthers went even bigger on the defensive line. They

651
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 1: end up getting Jalen Phillips, and no one's coming over

652
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: the top. Although technically we've seen over the year, Steve

653
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 1: occasionally some of these free agency deals get ripped up

654
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 1: before Wednesday and then you just never know. But I

655
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 1: think Jalen Phillips is joining the Panthers for one hundred

656
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 1: and twenty million dollars. Yeah, four years, so thirty per year,

657
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 1: eighty million in quote guarantees. And we almost could do

658
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 1: a whole podcast and actually figuring out what these contracts

659
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: are in reality later in the week, because some of

660
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: them are going to be really inflated and some of

661
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: them are not, and so we don't know that. But

662
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 1: this is a monster contract that Jalen Phillips ended up getting.

663
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: Just a perfect example of a guy timing free agency

664
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: at the exact right time. He finally was healthy he

665
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: got out there. The Eagles were trying to keep them,

666
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: but they weren't trying to pay him thirty million dollars.

667
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 3: Well, you see the players that are going to lose

668
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 3: because of it. I mean, it's this is where they

669
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 3: are with Jail. He's an edge rusher. He's a premier

670
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 3: edge rusher. This is why Miami traded him last year

671
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 3: because they knew the market was going to be like

672
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 3: this and they couldn't pay these types of dollars. Great

673
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 3: pickup for Carolina. I mean, he's someone who's very good

674
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 3: against the run. You saw he only generated two sacks

675
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 3: with Philly, but man, he was one of the most

676
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 3: disruptive front four guys you know in the NFL. You

677
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 3: pair him with Derek Brown, who's just as disruptive as

678
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 3: an interior five technique, played them on the same side

679
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 3: a lot like our guy edgro Everiro is gonna have

680
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 3: some things happening there because they've got some guys in

681
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 3: the secondary. They still need to for to five that

682
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 3: second level mm hmm a little bit. But at defenses

683
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 3: is this is a step on how you get better

684
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 3: by showing players around the league you're willing to do

685
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 3: what it takes.

686
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a risk for like the talent,

687
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: but I think it's a risk because he's been healthy

688
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 1: one out of the last five years.

689
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, and one's really significant injury or two out of

690
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 6: the last fight, yeah, which was the Achilles. But he

691
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,479
Speaker 6: has so much pop coming back in the you know,

692
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 6: as late as he did come back from that show,

693
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 6: so much pop. From Week five to the end of

694
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 6: the season. Per next Gen Stats, Jalen Phillips has the

695
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 6: sixth most pressures in the NFL. And obviously the injury

696
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,719
Speaker 6: history is red flag, but at the same time, his

697
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 6: age is very much a green flag. He will only

698
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 6: be twenty seven this summer. And I love to Steve's

699
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 6: point the idea of putting of overloading that front with

700
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 6: Derek Brown, and then also Nick Gorton really showed some

701
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 6: stuff at the end of this past season, and I

702
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 6: know that organization is so high on him, so getting

703
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 6: him a rushing partner and getting interior, really dynamic interior

704
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 6: players such as Derek Brown an outside rushing partner. And

705
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 6: like you said, Steve, they have the perimeter corners. I

706
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 6: love how those guys play. They the entire middle of

707
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 6: their defense from the inside linebackers to the safeties. This

708
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 6: is where I would like to see them turn their

709
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 6: attention to. And there's two more waves of free agency

710
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 6: to go where I do think the Panthers are going

711
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,479
Speaker 6: to be active. Guys like Devin Lloyd still available, who

712
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 6: I think would be a great fit for Katy.

713
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, there are there are linebackers out there.

714
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd is one of the highest ranked, maybe the

715
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: highest rank player I have left. I guess Kyler Murray

716
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 1: is out there too. I love Phillips and I misspoke.

717
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: I should have said one of the last three years.

718
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: It was those back to back just devastating achilles and

719
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: ACL injuries, but he was healthy and a really improved

720
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: player in his second season as a Dolphin, where I thought, oh,

721
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: that's a top ten edge guy. And then to have

722
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: those two massive injuries back to back seasons and then

723
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 1: come back and by the end of this season looking

724
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 1: exactly like that guy.

725
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 2: I don't think it's a risk.

726
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: I think in terms of the talent, I think that

727
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: this is the type of player that you do quote

728
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,959
Speaker 1: unquote overpay in free agency because they're so rare that

729
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 1: they get to the market. You do just get concerned

730
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: where him versus say a Milton Williams or even a

731
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: Brian Burns who they decided to trade away. You know,

732
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 1: he was coming off an injury. It's just the injury

733
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 1: situation that like a guy with those two major surgeries,

734
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: you're taking a little bit of a risk, but that's

735
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: what you do when you're trying to get over the hump.

736
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 2: Good move by the Panthers.

737
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: Let's talk Kenneth Walker, the Super Bowl MVP is a

738
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 1: member of the Kansas City Chiefs. Somehow I just assumed

739
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 1: we had that in our matchmaker. We kept talking Walker

740
00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 1: and ETN where it was gonna go to the Broncos

741
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: and Chiefs, but no one actually picked that. The three

742
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 1: year deal is up to forty five million dollars. He

743
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 1: gets twenty eight point seven million dollars fully guaranteed, though

744
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: without seeing the particulars, it's probably a two for thirty

745
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: million dollar contract basically, and it's like a team option

746
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 1: for the third year. And look, I just think they

747
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: needed to find big plays somewhere, and Kenneth Walker is

748
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: a is a walking big play. And I love him

749
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: there more because Eric Bienemy is back there, Like I

750
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: have more faith that they'll actually know what to do

751
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 1: with Kenneth Walker than maybe the version of the Chiefs

752
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: we saw the last year.

753
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 6: Yes, I agree with that point one hundred percent. I

754
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 6: think that is a crucial sort of you know, hinge

755
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 6: hiring or rehiring of this offseason if you're the Chiefs

756
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 6: and Kenneth Walker isn't just an explosive play waiting to

757
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 6: happen in the run game, He's an explosive pass play

758
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 6: screen guy waiting to happen our screen king and Andy Reid,

759
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 6: who you kind of have a play sheet that looks

760
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 6: a little bit like covering Andy Reid's in front of

761
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 6: you right now, Steve. But I cannot wait for Andy

762
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 6: Reid to find joy in his screen game again. And

763
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 6: Kenneth Walker is one million percent the guy that brings

764
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 6: this to life in such a cool way, such a

765
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 6: creative runner after the catch with the ball in his hand.

766
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 6: It's just it's just so beautiful to watch and creative,

767
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 6: and it fits right in with that sort of half scheme,

768
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 6: half freestyle that Andy Reid loves to love to execute.

769
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 4: Okay, so here's one thing we should have said before

770
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 4: the show.

771
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 3: Let's find a pairing of Eric Bienemy when he played

772
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 3: and put it next to Kenneth Walker, and they look

773
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 3: like clones of each other. Oh oh physically how they

774
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 3: looked facially like everything. But Kenneth Walker was a lot

775
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 3: more productive. Here's a couple things I like about Kenth Walker.

776
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 3: Besides explosiveness. Over four years, he has only about a

777
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 3: thousand touches. There's not a ton of wear and tear

778
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 3: on him, so he can be used in a lot

779
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 3: of different ways. But Kansas City needed to get speed.

780
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 3: They still need to get speed on the outside at receiver,

781
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 3: I mean, like a reliable speed person. They've got to

782
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 3: play catch with a lot of these other teams in

783
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 3: their division. Kenneth Walker is going to help. Still worried

784
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 3: about some things on the offensive line. They got the

785
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 3: right tackle together and some other things on the offensive line.

786
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 4: But this is a nice start getting explosiveness.

787
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 2: It's very incomplete.

788
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,479
Speaker 1: I don't like to kind of look at the team

789
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 1: as a whole, certainly after day one of free Enzy,

790
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 1: maybe not even day with you agree with the chief

791
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 1: The Chiefs have lost so much defensive talent.

792
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 5: That's of the Raiders at the top of the show.

793
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, how much more money can they spend.

794
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:29,840
Speaker 1: I've just mean that we have to see kind of

795
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 1: parts two and three to this off season. Today it

796
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,800
Speaker 1: was about you know, moves with Kenneth Walker adding some explosiveness,

797
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 1: saying goodbye to a lot of great twenty twenty two

798
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 1: draft picks. You already said goodbye to McDuffie. You're saying

799
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,839
Speaker 1: goodbye to two more members in the secondary. You bring

800
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: back Travis Kelce for one year, twelve million dollars. It

801
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 1: was funny that that like hour when there was a

802
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 1: report that like, no, he's going to talk to other teams,

803
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 1: he's going to talk to other teams. No one really

804
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 1: bought that Travis Kelce back with the Chiefs. So that's great.

805
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,240
Speaker 1: And then Kirostanga, what a come up for him? Gets

806
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 1: three years twenty one million dollars, fourteen million dollars guarantees.

807
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 4: Is your h back as well?

808
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 2: I don't for one the thing. I really like him.

809
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 2: And yet on.

810
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 5: Terry Poe, you're so mad on Terry Poet.

811
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 4: I am so because he played well for the page.

812
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,479
Speaker 1: He's a bye high though you always worry a little

813
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: bit about okay, he could have been freely available the

814
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,359
Speaker 1: last couple of years for anyone to grab and now

815
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,839
Speaker 1: you're paying seven more than the last couple of days

816
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: they had to they.

817
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 2: Were have to be right about it.

818
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but they were so vulnerable in the anterior

819
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 3: last year they had to get something. And they're also

820
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,800
Speaker 3: kind of tips you know, where they're picking their offensive

821
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:41,879
Speaker 3: line of why I received with their two first round

822
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 3: draft picks.

823
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:43,760
Speaker 2: Is there anything or second?

824
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,959
Speaker 1: Like, my god, like it's paying Travis Kelsey twelve million

825
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: dollars on your cap, you know, in a year where

826
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 1: you're really up against it, you know what I know I.

827
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 6: Have to tell you, Like maybe in terms of like

828
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 6: pure team building on a roster construction, maybe not the

829
00:35:59,400 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 6: best idea.

830
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,840
Speaker 5: In terms of an overall brand and organization, that.

831
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 6: Guy plus his beautiful fiance Taylor Swift have brought the

832
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:13,280
Speaker 6: Chiefs organization revenue beyond their wildness dreams. So I'm pretty

833
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 6: sure twelve million against the cap is going to be

834
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 6: just fine.

835
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:17,839
Speaker 2: That's fair. I thought.

836
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 1: Roger Sherman had you know, one of the posts of

837
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 1: the day on Blue Sky where he said, like, you know,

838
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: he didn't he didn't know if it was a great

839
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,840
Speaker 1: investment either, He said, has has Kelsey's play dropped, he

840
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 1: thought Kelsey maybe should retire. Has Kelsey's play dropped off?

841
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 4: Yes?

842
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,919
Speaker 2: Is Kelsey good enough to keep playing in the NFL? Also?

843
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: Yes, should Kelsey keep playing football after the world's wealthiest,

844
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: most popular musician wrote a song about his penis no

845
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,919
Speaker 1: like I think that's a that's a no at that point.

846
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 1: Let's just enjoy life. Let's go on tour, let's just chill.

847
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 1: Football is hard. It's hard to talk about football and

848
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: get a reaction from from the group in the back here.

849
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:56,120
Speaker 1: For a minute on Monday, I thought the Titan we're

850
00:36:56,160 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 1: gonna be the team that really kind of got all

851
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: of our attention of just spending a ton of money

852
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 1: before the Raiders went over the top.

853
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 2: It shouldn't be that surprising.

854
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,319
Speaker 1: These two teams at the top of the draft with

855
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 1: the most amount of caps base are spending a lot

856
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: of money. Let's let's talk about how the Titans went

857
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 1: ham on Monday. Titan Wandell Robinson four years, seventy eight

858
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: million dollars, thirty eight million dollars guaranteed one of the

859
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,839
Speaker 1: only two matchmaker hits that we had.

860
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 2: It's absolutely outrageous.

861
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: Colleen and I right now after day one, or at

862
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 1: least as we're taping this, or tied one to one,

863
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 1: Jordan and Patrick have a goose egg, but one is

864
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 1: not great. But at least I got Wandell Robinson to

865
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: the Titans back with Brian Dable, Jonathan Franklin Myers, a

866
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: guy who we thought would go to different places. We

867
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 1: should have known he's going to Robert Sala three years,

868
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 1: sixty three million dollars forty two million dollars guaranteed, And

869
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 1: in fact, we actually did talk about that connection quite

870
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 1: a bit this offseason, just wasn't part of that particular game.

871
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:58,319
Speaker 2: Cordial Fla a.

872
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: Guy you know, I wasn't sure how high I should

873
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: put up on the one on one, but I was like,

874
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: he was really good last year. I'm going to put

875
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: him pretty high. And you know what the Titans agreed

876
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,439
Speaker 1: with me. Three years, forty five million dollars, thirty two

877
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 1: million dollars guaranteed. A Lante Taylor gets sixty million dollars

878
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: forty two million dollars. The employer man he is, and

879
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 1: he clearly had teams when I saw that deal, compared

880
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 1: to a lot of these copy and paste cornerback contracts

881
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 1: where he got another ten million dollars guaranteed than flat

882
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,839
Speaker 1: and what is it twenty million dollars. I was like, oh,

883
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 1: he had a market of three four teams that just

884
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 1: kept pumping it up, pamping it up.

885
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 5: Maybe all the other teams that we predicted it know

886
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 5: too be also.

887
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,399
Speaker 6: By the way, say Surrosing, I stay, yes, we did.

888
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:45,359
Speaker 6: I stand by Jonathan Franklin. Myers had a great market.

889
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 6: I stand by that, ie that out of the combine,

890
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 6: and the forty nine Ers and Bengals were both reportedly

891
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,799
Speaker 6: included in that, and the forty nine Ers were in

892
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 6: on him. And so I'm like, I stand on it.

893
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,400
Speaker 6: I know I didn't get a point talent, okay, but

894
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 6: I stand on the table.

895
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well, and I love this.

896
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:03,120
Speaker 5: I love this fit for him.

897
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 6: Obviously, the connection on most of these players, not all,

898
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 6: but most of them are either Brian Dabele or Robert

899
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 6: Salah right.

900
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: Rebuilding the you know giants doesn't seem that exciting to me.

901
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: You get Wandale, you get Daniel Bellinger for three years

902
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:18,800
Speaker 1: twenty four million dollars.

903
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 4: It's okay.

904
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 2: I did like him, but.

905
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,319
Speaker 1: Then I saw the money and that actually was the

906
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 1: first contract of the day. That I was like, Wow,

907
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 1: eight million dollars for Daniel Bellinger. Mitchell Trubisky, by the way,

908
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: is also a member of the Titans, and Cordelle flat

909
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 1: was another dable. So it's a lot of it's a

910
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 1: lot of Giants, it's a lot of familiarity. That's how

911
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: free agency goes. This was a team that also needed

912
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 1: to get to the salary cap floor and spend some money.

913
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 1: But it's almost like Mike Rabel the old Titan and

914
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: inspired some of his old friends Tom Brady and then

915
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 1: and then the Titans to be like spending crazy on

916
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 1: day one a free Agents well, a.

917
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 3: Lottay Taylor is the only shigning that they made today

918
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 3: that wasn't inspy. The Brian da Ball or Robert Sala,

919
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 3: you know, and earlier, you know, I talked about how

920
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:00,760
Speaker 3: the Raiders they brought in guys who came from programs

921
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 3: who've won, where there's been locker room accountability. When you're

922
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 3: coming from the Jets, when you're coming from the Giants,

923
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,359
Speaker 3: those are programs programs that haven't won, and we've seen

924
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 3: there's dysfunction. So let's see the character of the guys.

925
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 3: That's what Brian day Ball and Robert Sala are hoping

926
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:15,840
Speaker 3: to do. But that's why getting a guy like Jonathan

927
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 3: Franklin Myers who came.

928
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 5: Up the hard route and a great locker room.

929
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 3: Great locker room guy like if that's what he can do.

930
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,399
Speaker 3: Plus he's gonna be paired next to Jeffrey Simmons. Have

931
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:24,320
Speaker 3: fun with that one.

932
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 4: I mean, those two dudes are gonna knock the snot

933
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:26,840
Speaker 4: out of people.

934
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:28,280
Speaker 2: The great combo.

935
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,400
Speaker 1: And they didn't sign like an edge today and so

936
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 1: you think, okay, well you got that number four overall, Yeah, draft,

937
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,360
Speaker 1: you're right in the sweet spot for a pass rusher

938
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:38,839
Speaker 1: right there to put next to those guys. And then

939
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:43,240
Speaker 1: suddenly you have an identity on defense with Robert Sala

940
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: that you can be excited about. Speaking of identity, Rashid

941
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: daheat he's back with the Seahawks. I do love a

942
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:58,360
Speaker 1: little Seahawks keeping the guys that they wanted at their price.

943
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,560
Speaker 1: They had to say goodbye. Kobe Bryant is going to

944
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: be with Bears. We'll get to that. We haven't heard

945
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 1: about Riquillen, but not expecting him to come back. So

946
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 1: Rashid Taheed is back three years, fifty one million dollars

947
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,880
Speaker 1: so that's eighteen per year. And then Josh Job what

948
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 1: a come up for him, a guy that essentially didn't

949
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 1: make the Eagles roster and now gets eight million dollars

950
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 1: a year. I like the moves, I like the discipline.

951
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: I like the price there. Shihed's market maybe wasn't quite

952
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 1: as big as you would have thought, like you would

953
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 1: have thought he would get more money than Wandel Robinson

954
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: for him, and he got significantly less. But I think

955
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,919
Speaker 1: that worked out well that the Seahawks had a price

956
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 1: for him, they stood to it, and it ended up

957
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,200
Speaker 1: being the best price, and now you have a really

958
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,720
Speaker 1: nice secondary piece behind Jackson Smith Dia.

959
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

960
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,839
Speaker 6: The team, a team that has felt so complete over

961
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 6: this last season, is able and smartly decides to be

962
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 6: to your point, disciplined enough to stick to be being

963
00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 6: super selective the our guys, guys that they wanted to

964
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 6: bring back in, the guys who they clearly have committed

965
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 6: to in this first wave of free agency agency, and

966
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,400
Speaker 6: read their read their markets correctly as well. They don't

967
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 6: have a lot of places to fill this roster on

968
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 6: free agency. In fact, the only things I really see

969
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:18,919
Speaker 6: for this team is that they can continue to add

970
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,480
Speaker 6: via the draft, specifically some of these young players to

971
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 6: be behind the stars that are on this roster.

972
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 5: Running back exactly.

973
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 6: And and I think that this John Schneider team is

974
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 6: a team that's like, yeah, I could get one of

975
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,479
Speaker 6: those third or fourth round or maybe a late free

976
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 6: agent free agency pickup. This is still such a smartly

977
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,560
Speaker 6: run and complete team that I think they were allowed

978
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:42,200
Speaker 6: to be super selective with the specific guys that they

979
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 6: wanted to identify and target early.

980
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 1: I think they still need a member of the secondary

981
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 1: or too, but they've shown that they can identify maybe

982
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,800
Speaker 1: some cheaper guys in free agents and develop and developed

983
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 1: Drake Thomas their linebacker. Well it comes back for a

984
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 1: small deal taie a quota. Uh, he's going to have

985
00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 1: a bigger role. Probably. They liked him at through what

986
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 1: he did last year when Kobe Bryant or when some

987
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 1: of the safeties were out, and I'd like to I

988
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 1: want Shiheid to make more big plays for the Seahawks.

989
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 3: You know, well he only remember he had half a season.

990
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 3: Lord as system, he'll make more.

991
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: And he did it as a returner. He's now going

992
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 1: to do it as a receiver. Sam Darnold smiling somewhere.

993
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:24,440
Speaker 1: I got to say something on Monday on NFL Network.

994
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: Yeah that I don't know if I ever got to

995
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:30,399
Speaker 1: save before, which was, how about those Bengals on day

996
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:34,959
Speaker 1: one of free agency making really smart moves? Steve thinks

997
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,040
Speaker 1: that boy Mafe got a lot of money, and he

998
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 1: did sixty million dollars for three years. But I'd rather

999
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 1: have boy Mafe three for sixty than the Adafe away

1000
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:45,879
Speaker 1: contract out there.

1001
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 4: Oh man, that's the one, maybe even.

1002
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,879
Speaker 1: The Jalen Phillips contract. Considering the money, I like Boi

1003
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 1: Mafe a lot. It's the type of player I want

1004
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 1: to bet on in free agency twenty years seems fair.

1005
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 1: And then Brian Cook, the safety from the Chiefs, a

1006
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,960
Speaker 1: really aggressive, fun player, goes to the Bengals three for

1007
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: forty two. They obviously need help on defense, but it's

1008
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,480
Speaker 1: not it's not old money, it's not bad money. I

1009
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:09,359
Speaker 1: think it's I think it's good money. That Bengals fans

1010
00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:09,960
Speaker 1: should be excited.

1011
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 3: They have needed a safety ever since let Jesse base

1012
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 3: and so getting someone like Brian Cook, who played collegiately

1013
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 3: at Cincinnati after starting his career at Howard University, can

1014
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 3: really run. You know, he's got got a lot of

1015
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 3: good coverage skills. I think that's significant. Look, boy mafe

1016
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 3: is someone with a lot of talent, and that is

1017
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,839
Speaker 3: an affordable edge rusher contract. We know they didn't want

1018
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 3: to Patroy hendricks and so we'll see. My whole thing

1019
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:36,240
Speaker 3: with the Bengals is they've yet to develop. They've they've

1020
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 3: a position and they haven't developed anyone to maybe boy

1021
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 3: In Mafey with his ability can figure something out.

1022
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 1: But that Joseph Aside just got a big contract from

1023
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: the Jets that that we'll get to Trey Hendrickson they

1024
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,560
Speaker 1: had to trade for before he really exploded. Mafey to

1025
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 1: me is he's different than Jalen Phillips. But to me,

1026
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,000
Speaker 1: pressure is production and he's always provided a lot of

1027
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:01,719
Speaker 1: pressure and so I'm just that I'm excited just for

1028
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:02,719
Speaker 1: a little optimism.

1029
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:05,799
Speaker 6: Well, what I liked is they did sort of a

1030
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 6: tandem approach, which is the rush and the coverage. Because

1031
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 6: you know, Brian Cook mostly has played like that deep

1032
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 6: safety role. He can be used as a blitzer when necessary,

1033
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:18,360
Speaker 6: but he's really been strong, especially in his vision and

1034
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 6: limiting that explosive play rate, which is what the Bengals.

1035
00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 6: We know struggled with so much last year, and they

1036
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 6: also added a pass rusher too, so it's kind of

1037
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:31,240
Speaker 6: like this complimentary. They need help everywhere on their defense obviously,

1038
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 6: but I like the approach that they very methodical, sort

1039
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,440
Speaker 6: of like, Okay, we have part to hole here, and

1040
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 6: we can't really have one without the other on this defense.

1041
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 5: I know, well, that's a weird taste in my mouth.

1042
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 2: You mentioned it, Jordan in Indianapolis.

1043
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 1: I have a feeling Zach Taylor and Duke Tobin they

1044
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 1: know that they got to push forward. This whole show

1045
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 1: has just been prelude to talking about the New Orleans

1046
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 1: Saints and a nice day one for the New Orleans Saints.

1047
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:07,719
Speaker 1: I think maybe you guys disagree. Big money for the

1048
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: guard David Edwards four years, sixty one million dollars. Travis

1049
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:16,760
Speaker 1: etn is a member of the New Orleans Saints four years,

1050
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:21,160
Speaker 1: fifty two million dollars. I thought it was very interesting

1051
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: that rap sheet on NFL Network said that there are

1052
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 1: some that believe that Alvin Kamara may be ready to

1053
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 1: hang him up and start sipping my ties. Yeah, and

1054
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 1: if you look at the contract that he signed just

1055
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:36,799
Speaker 1: a couple of days ago, where he restructured it. It

1056
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,399
Speaker 1: was the type of contract that you would sign right

1057
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,239
Speaker 1: before retiring to help your team out in terms of

1058
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,760
Speaker 1: dead money. I don't know if that decision has been made,

1059
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 1: but it sounds like there's belief with the Saints that

1060
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:49,759
Speaker 1: there may be no Alvin Kamara. He's someone I'm going

1061
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,399
Speaker 1: to be pushing for the Hall of Fame someday about that.

1062
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, if they go out and make a

1063
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 3: moop for traves et in this early right, they must

1064
00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 3: have some indication he's not going to be there because

1065
00:46:58,120 --> 00:46:59,680
Speaker 3: they are similar types of backs.

1066
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:02,839
Speaker 4: Etn is younger and.

1067
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,360
Speaker 3: Etn Is is is much as we may think of

1068
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 3: it as kind of a change of paceback. Look at

1069
00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:09,759
Speaker 3: his workload. He is a bellcow back. Look at the

1070
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:12,400
Speaker 3: number of touches he's had. He's twice in his four

1071
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 3: year career gone over three hundred touches in a season.

1072
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:18,319
Speaker 3: That's that's rushes and catches. Alvin Kamara has not been

1073
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 3: asked to do that. He's been mainly a split back guy.

1074
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,279
Speaker 3: So I think this is a signal that Kamara could

1075
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,880
Speaker 3: be gone. I'm not saying that he is, but you know,

1076
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 3: the Saints. The Saints made some moves that they had

1077
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 3: to make to open things up for Tyler Schuck a

1078
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 3: little bit. I think defensively, they also could be making

1079
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 3: some moves to Mario Davis has gone at linebacker. We

1080
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 3: don't know Cam Jordan's future, is he a free agent,

1081
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:40,239
Speaker 3: if he'll be back or not.

1082
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 4: But these are some moves.

1083
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 3: In terms of getting youth and competitive players in here

1084
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:48,479
Speaker 3: that you they kind of they kind of foreshadowed last

1085
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 3: year with some.

1086
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:49,919
Speaker 4: Of the moves that they made.

1087
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 6: Well, they love they love Danny Stutzman, and I'm not

1088
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:55,880
Speaker 6: saying it's a one to one replacement, but they drafted

1089
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 6: him last year and that coaching staff was so high

1090
00:47:58,680 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 6: on him.

1091
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 5: But obviously with Davis is playing at.

1092
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:03,479
Speaker 6: Such a high caliber clip that he has been for

1093
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,280
Speaker 6: you know, his entire careers, and he's such an emotional

1094
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,359
Speaker 6: leader too on the team and it's hard to take

1095
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 6: him off the field. But man, they they love this guy,

1096
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:15,319
Speaker 6: the second year linebacker out of OU and they have

1097
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 6: a lot of young guys on that defense all over

1098
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:19,759
Speaker 6: that need to take a step forward in order for

1099
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:21,520
Speaker 6: this team to be creditable.

1100
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 5: Greg. But I do like, yeah, that's tough.

1101
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:27,400
Speaker 1: I don't think they wanted You know what's crazy is

1102
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:29,520
Speaker 1: I agree. I think he's a really good player. He

1103
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,920
Speaker 1: started his career so well. But you cannot find a

1104
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:36,439
Speaker 1: Saints fan that is unhappy about Alonti Taylor leaving. He

1105
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:40,359
Speaker 1: had a very up and down career for them, and

1106
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:43,560
Speaker 1: in general, like both his coaches and the fan base

1107
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:45,919
Speaker 1: were very up and down with him. But I think

1108
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:47,520
Speaker 1: I think he could be great in the right spot.

1109
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:50,799
Speaker 1: Good point on etnbing a belcow thirteen and ninety nine

1110
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 1: yards from scrimmage last year. That was actually the third

1111
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,239
Speaker 1: most that he's had in the season. He's had two

1112
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 1: seasons more than that.

1113
00:48:58,480 --> 00:48:59,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, look at the touches.

1114
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 6: And yeah, he's a Louisiana native. Right is that the

1115
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 6: Saints have for all? We give them a lot of

1116
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,920
Speaker 6: crap on this show and have for a few years,

1117
00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 6: but they do know how to play to their fan base.

1118
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:12,279
Speaker 5: They really really do.

1119
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:15,719
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, by the way, in Travis DTN, this is

1120
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 1: breaking up one of the best romances in football. They

1121
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 1: played together for eight straight years. Trevor Lawrence and ETN

1122
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:29,280
Speaker 1: both sent tweets, you know, back and forth after this happened.

1123
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,880
Speaker 1: We've come a long way. Gonna miss you. Said, Trevor

1124
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:33,919
Speaker 1: been a hell of an eight year run. It's them

1125
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:37,400
Speaker 1: with their their kids and I love that. And Etn

1126
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 1: maybe wasn't a perfect fit, I guess for what Liam

1127
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 1: Cohen wanted to do. But I think he's going to

1128
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:44,400
Speaker 1: be great with Kellen Moore. And the bigger news is

1129
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:47,720
Speaker 1: David Edwards, Like, that's a big time contract to get

1130
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:48,760
Speaker 1: in free agency.

1131
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:49,920
Speaker 2: I thought he might go to the Texans.

1132
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,360
Speaker 1: They end up spending more money elsewhere, But fifteen a

1133
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,839
Speaker 1: year for a guard who really rebuilt his career under

1134
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:58,440
Speaker 1: another former offensive line coach that the Saints once had,

1135
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:02,160
Speaker 1: Aaron Kromer, who's who's now not in Buffalo. They're trying

1136
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:05,000
Speaker 1: to rebuild that offensive line and I like that move.

1137
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,160
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the Giants.

1138
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:10,200
Speaker 1: I was really curious what would happen on day one

1139
00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:12,359
Speaker 1: of free agency with the tight ends. Would they fly

1140
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 1: off the board. They did, Giants bringing Isaiah Likely for

1141
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:21,560
Speaker 1: three years, forty million dollars, very similar, almost identical to

1142
00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:25,759
Speaker 1: the contract that their right tackle Jermaine Iluminor got to

1143
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 1: stay with the Giants. He went and looked at free agency.

1144
00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 1: It ended up being staying with the Giants was the

1145
00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:33,040
Speaker 1: best deal for him, and then Tremaine Edmunds, the former

1146
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 1: Bears linebacker, gets a big deal three for thirty six.

1147
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:41,919
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Likely. You know, John Harbaugh, he knows

1148
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:45,359
Speaker 1: them well, brings them in. You already have a tight

1149
00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:47,440
Speaker 1: end there in THEO Johnson, but they kind of do

1150
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,239
Speaker 1: different things, fun tandem there.

1151
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:52,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think you're gonna see. I mean, it seems

1152
00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:55,399
Speaker 6: very obvious a lot of twelve personnel, two tight ends,

1153
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 6: two receivers on that team, particularly when you look at

1154
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 6: the receiving corp there. Like you mentioned, he's a Harbaugh guy.

1155
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:06,000
Speaker 6: John Harbaugh is in control of this team, and he

1156
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:09,400
Speaker 6: knows exactly who Isaiah Likely is and he knows exactly

1157
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 6: how they want to use him. So this seemed like,

1158
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,839
Speaker 6: I mean, honestly, I did someone match make this one?

1159
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:17,960
Speaker 6: Please tell me one of us did, because this seems

1160
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:21,799
Speaker 6: too obvious to have us overlooked it and our free

1161
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 6: agency match maker game.

1162
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:24,239
Speaker 5: But yeah, it is.

1163
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 6: It is I think really interesting because Harbor had the

1164
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:31,200
Speaker 6: Mark Andrews Isaiah Likely pairing for a while. Now he's

1165
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 6: going to the THEO Johnson Isaiah Likely pairing. I you know,

1166
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 6: I like, they do different things and and I just

1167
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 6: think it's gonna be.

1168
00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 2: Really, it makes me hate the Andrews contract.

1169
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 1: Why did they give Mark Andrews that contract that he

1170
00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:45,279
Speaker 1: didn't get that much less than Isaiah Likely got.

1171
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,080
Speaker 3: It was a weird extension, and at the time they

1172
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 3: did it in the middle of last season, that kind

1173
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:51,640
Speaker 3: of tip that Isaiah Likely would be gone they were

1174
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:53,840
Speaker 3: sticking with Mark Andrews, and of course they blow the

1175
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:54,439
Speaker 3: staff out.

1176
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:56,520
Speaker 5: John Harbaugh's like, don't mind if I do.

1177
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, God Monk has gone. Like I thought.

1178
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 3: I thought Likely was a candid to get to Cleveland

1179
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:03,719
Speaker 3: with them getting rid of anjok who. I know they've

1180
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,399
Speaker 3: got fan in there, but I think you know those

1181
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,080
Speaker 3: two because Likely is an as sending player.

1182
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 4: He's become a very reliable blocker, and.

1183
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:11,920
Speaker 3: I think that's where Harbaugh is like, this is a

1184
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:15,720
Speaker 3: guy with the type of quarterback we have who's mobile

1185
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:19,239
Speaker 3: on the move like Lamar, that knows how to deal

1186
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:21,160
Speaker 3: with that type of quarterback. I think this is an

1187
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:23,840
Speaker 3: excellent pick up the game because Isaiah Likely is an

1188
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:25,160
Speaker 3: ascending player.

1189
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:26,520
Speaker 2: And I know jermana luminoor.

1190
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,760
Speaker 1: You know, maybe he didn't get like the peak value

1191
00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 1: that he wanted to see, but he's kicked around the

1192
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,720
Speaker 1: league a lot, you know, born and born in England,

1193
00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 1: came over, learned the game late, and I went and

1194
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,240
Speaker 1: looked like he you know, he's made something between twenty

1195
00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:42,919
Speaker 1: and thirty million dollars in his career. He's a thirty

1196
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:44,440
Speaker 1: one year old player and bounce around. This is a

1197
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 1: life changing contract for him. So it's like it's kind

1198
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,800
Speaker 1: of a reward for a career that's been slowly building

1199
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 1: over the last eight or nine years. And I think

1200
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:56,759
Speaker 1: it's really good value. There were not many tackles out.

1201
00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:58,799
Speaker 1: There were Steve Walker still is not signed, by the way,

1202
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 1: and the tackle marks like totally developed, and I think

1203
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,839
Speaker 1: Aluminor and the Giants, I think it's going to age well.

1204
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,279
Speaker 1: Unlike that Edmunds contract. I thought that was one of

1205
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:11,600
Speaker 1: the most surprising worst contracts of the day. I don't

1206
00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 1: get that he made almost the same amount of money

1207
00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 1: as Quay Walker, and especially na Kobe Dean with the Raiders,

1208
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:22,759
Speaker 1: like he's a guy that just got cut, who was

1209
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,279
Speaker 1: kind of declining, who's played a lot, entered the league

1210
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,120
Speaker 1: at age twenty. Just I don't know, they felt like

1211
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:31,080
Speaker 1: they tried to get some other guys today and maybe

1212
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:33,279
Speaker 1: the Titans out spent them for a couple of them,

1213
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: and then they were like spending bad money.

1214
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,279
Speaker 6: After good I will not say that this was the

1215
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:40,279
Speaker 6: right move for them to make, but in terms of

1216
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:42,600
Speaker 6: the blueprint of what they were trying to do here

1217
00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:45,080
Speaker 6: at this position, I can kind of see what they

1218
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 6: were actually trying to do. And that is one of

1219
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 6: my big gripes about the way that Joe Shane had

1220
00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:50,560
Speaker 6: previously built.

1221
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 5: This roster was there are a lot of parts.

1222
00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:56,560
Speaker 6: And no connective tissue or identity. There's a lot of

1223
00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 6: high traits players. There's a lot of players who were

1224
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,080
Speaker 6: either draft picks or you know, they traded in the

1225
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:04,960
Speaker 6: case of Brian Burns, guys who in a vacuum are

1226
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:08,440
Speaker 6: really really solid players, but nothing connecting them all in

1227
00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:10,560
Speaker 6: terms of an identity. I think they were looking for

1228
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:14,680
Speaker 6: a linebacker specifically to try to help bring all of

1229
00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:17,880
Speaker 6: the different parts and pieces of this defense together in

1230
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,880
Speaker 6: a functional way. They couldn't. I don't think they This

1231
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:23,320
Speaker 6: is not reported, but I don't think maybe they could

1232
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:25,440
Speaker 6: get some of the players that they were thinking of

1233
00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:27,600
Speaker 6: if they were in the market on some of these players.

1234
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:29,799
Speaker 6: And then so what happens Then you have to pay

1235
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:33,080
Speaker 6: higher price for a player who still is supposed to

1236
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:34,040
Speaker 6: fill that role with you.

1237
00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 4: All I see is a.

1238
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:39,399
Speaker 3: Bunch of really good inside linebackers still out right, don't

1239
00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 3: Lloyd's out there.

1240
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:42,319
Speaker 2: Well, here's the biggest thing for me.

1241
00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:45,719
Speaker 1: That Bears didn't want them, and the Bears needed an

1242
00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: inside linebacker.

1243
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:47,759
Speaker 2: That worries me.

1244
00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 1: The Bears signed it inside linebacker Devin Bush. We'll get

1245
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:51,920
Speaker 1: to it for less.

1246
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:53,360
Speaker 4: I don't get that one either.

1247
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:54,080
Speaker 2: For less money.

1248
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:57,520
Speaker 1: At least he's coming off his best season, a good season,

1249
00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,760
Speaker 1: and they have like a vision for him. Dinard Wilson.

1250
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:01,719
Speaker 1: Like I was trying to think of the connection. I

1251
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:03,960
Speaker 1: don't know if there is one. He's the defensive coordinator.

1252
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:07,320
Speaker 1: He was in Baltimore, then Tennessee, Tremaine Edmunds obviously in

1253
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,560
Speaker 1: Buffalo and Chicago. We'll see, you know, they all can't

1254
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:12,359
Speaker 1: be winners, and neither can our pick.

1255
00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:16,160
Speaker 5: I mean it might be down to communication style. Who knows.

1256
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 5: We don't know.

1257
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:18,239
Speaker 6: We're not in the helmet with these guys, but on

1258
00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 6: the field with these guys, that's the thing. And when

1259
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:22,600
Speaker 6: I talk about connective tissue, you're you're looking for like

1260
00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:26,239
Speaker 6: something someone who could just glue. All of the pieces

1261
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:29,600
Speaker 6: around that are moving parts around that are very high

1262
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:33,520
Speaker 6: quality players in some cases, but don't have a cohesive identity.

1263
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:36,880
Speaker 6: You're just looking for, like someone to set like a

1264
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:41,359
Speaker 6: solid floor or to reset what a position is going

1265
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,839
Speaker 6: to look and feel like, and then around right sort

1266
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:44,359
Speaker 6: of build the soul.

1267
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 1: They need another linebacker, they don't really they now only

1268
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 1: have one. So I do get that that's a position

1269
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:51,359
Speaker 1: that they have to add, like a couple guys they

1270
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:53,160
Speaker 1: I think they need help in the secondary.

1271
00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:55,400
Speaker 2: They have an incomplete I.

1272
00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:57,320
Speaker 4: Think he could play the old Charake roles with they're

1273
00:55:57,400 --> 00:55:57,920
Speaker 4: looking at him.

1274
00:55:58,040 --> 00:55:58,560
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1275
00:55:58,840 --> 00:56:02,960
Speaker 1: So I mentioned on Sunday night how Rashan Gary almost

1276
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,760
Speaker 1: got hacked. You know, he said he got hacked. Yeah,

1277
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 1: well he didn't get hacked. Well, he did get hacked.

1278
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 1: Let's I mean, let's be honest. Rashan Gary sent it

1279
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,480
Speaker 1: out and then his agent probably told him, hey, man,

1280
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,760
Speaker 1: take that off, especially because you use the same AI

1281
00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,560
Speaker 1: that other players used to write their own goodbye and

1282
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:23,120
Speaker 1: have the same graphics, or the agency is making the

1283
00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:25,799
Speaker 1: format for them. I can't really tell what's going on

1284
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:28,000
Speaker 1: either way. It was like the exact same as a

1285
00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:30,920
Speaker 1: couple others that I saw around the league. He deletes it,

1286
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,920
Speaker 1: then he gets traded. This happened early Monday morning. The

1287
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:37,680
Speaker 1: Cowboys now have Rashan Gary. They send a fourth round

1288
00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: pick in twenty twenty seven, a little higher than I

1289
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:42,959
Speaker 1: would have expected. They also signed safety Jalen Thompson later

1290
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:45,880
Speaker 1: for three years thirty six million dollars. Overall, I thought,

1291
00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:49,880
Speaker 1: like kind of the cheaper positions in free agency normally safety,

1292
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,719
Speaker 1: off ball, linebacker, running back. Safety got a little more

1293
00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,520
Speaker 1: respect than usual, starting to bump up, like the safety's

1294
00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:56,520
Speaker 1: actually got paid today.

1295
00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:57,880
Speaker 2: Just like an overall point.

1296
00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:01,200
Speaker 1: I had Rashan Gary, though, you know, he was a

1297
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,560
Speaker 1: guy that the Packers were ready to cut.

1298
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:04,720
Speaker 2: Was do eighteen million dollars.

1299
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:08,320
Speaker 1: So what the Cowboys do is they just say, looking

1300
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:12,120
Speaker 1: at the edge market out there, eighteen million dollars for Gary,

1301
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:13,719
Speaker 1: we're okay with that.

1302
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:14,640
Speaker 2: Do you agree?

1303
00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 3: That's clearly it came out economics, you know, because they

1304
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,840
Speaker 3: did swing for Max Crosby, and once he didn't get that,

1305
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:21,560
Speaker 3: they were like, you know what, we got a chance

1306
00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:24,440
Speaker 3: to get for Shan Gary. And I think he's somebody

1307
00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 3: who could be a good, complimentary, effective player. And when

1308
00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:31,120
Speaker 3: I say that, when you line him up next to

1309
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 3: Kenny Clark or Quinn Williams in tandem, he can work

1310
00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:37,280
Speaker 3: better than maybe be an overall winner. And there's a

1311
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:39,800
Speaker 3: lot of scheming that's going on in the NFL right now.

1312
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:43,880
Speaker 3: We know Christian Parker is a mcmangio disciple, and they

1313
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 3: love to scheme their outside linebackers off the guy next

1314
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:49,200
Speaker 3: to him. That is a trait that Vic Fangio likes

1315
00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:52,680
Speaker 3: to do. So I think they're hoping that Gary, who's

1316
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 3: not known for having a ton of rush moves, but

1317
00:57:56,360 --> 00:58:00,280
Speaker 3: a great power player, athletic guy, that in ten with

1318
00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:03,440
Speaker 3: the Quinn Williams or something they can work well together.

1319
00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:05,760
Speaker 4: So I think that's why they made that type of acquisition.

1320
00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're not chasing an outlier twice, right, they chase

1321
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:14,280
Speaker 6: Max Crosby, huge outlier player, which asking for outlier figures

1322
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:18,480
Speaker 6: to actually make that happen. They weren't willing reportedly to

1323
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:22,360
Speaker 6: give the second first round pick. Jane Slater was reporting

1324
00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:25,400
Speaker 6: day of or day before that it was like they

1325
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:27,200
Speaker 6: weren't quite willing to go up that high, but they

1326
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:28,560
Speaker 6: were very much in the mix on this.

1327
00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:31,000
Speaker 1: Reportedly, they were willing to give a first the second

1328
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: and a player. So it was just they wouldn't give

1329
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:34,360
Speaker 1: that second first.

1330
00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:37,200
Speaker 6: Sure, yeah and so, but I think what to credit

1331
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:40,480
Speaker 6: to them? They didn't then chase another outlier. Instead, they

1332
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 6: went for the math equation of their front. Like Steve

1333
00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:46,080
Speaker 6: just pointed out, this is all about like parts to

1334
00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 6: hole within the front structure of a defensive line. If

1335
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:51,600
Speaker 6: you can't have the outlier, they don't just pivot to

1336
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:56,200
Speaker 6: another outlier pie in the sky attempt. They're instead going

1337
00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:57,840
Speaker 6: a little bit more meat and potatoes on it, which

1338
00:58:57,840 --> 00:58:58,800
Speaker 6: I think is a smart plan.

1339
00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:01,400
Speaker 1: I just think the eating the market aspect, and they

1340
00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:04,680
Speaker 1: did it before free agency open. I'd rather have boy Mafi. Now,

1341
00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:07,760
Speaker 1: maybe he doesn't fit. I mean, Christian Parker coached Rashan Gary.

1342
00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:08,120
Speaker 4: Am I right?

1343
00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,960
Speaker 1: I mean, wasn't he his coach? So that's the familiarity.

1344
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 1: He knows what he can do. I love that Rashan Gary.

1345
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:19,760
Speaker 1: I want to see that Rashan Gary again. He just

1346
00:59:19,960 --> 00:59:22,520
Speaker 1: wasn't that guy the last year or so?

1347
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:23,560
Speaker 2: Real injury.

1348
00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:25,880
Speaker 3: What's interesting the more this goes along, though, Let's see

1349
00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:27,480
Speaker 3: what the market is for Trey Hendrickson.

1350
00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:29,280
Speaker 4: It might not be nearly.

1351
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 5: It can't be.

1352
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:34,000
Speaker 6: Otherwise It would have happened already.

1353
00:59:33,560 --> 00:59:35,880
Speaker 3: Yea, so maybe Dallas is still in play. If that

1354
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:38,840
Speaker 3: mark I saw, I think I think he ends up.

1355
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:40,360
Speaker 2: That would be a big hit for me.

1356
00:59:40,440 --> 00:59:43,560
Speaker 1: On the Old Matchmaker Show, I had that, Uh yeah,

1357
00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:45,840
Speaker 1: I saw something. It's like Trey Hendrickson's waited a long

1358
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:47,680
Speaker 1: time to be a free agent. He's not going to

1359
00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 1: rush himself, Like, yeah, he would if he was getting

1360
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:52,200
Speaker 1: the amount of money some of these other guys are getting,

1361
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:54,560
Speaker 1: or at least what he hoped to get, Like maybe

1362
00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:56,840
Speaker 1: he'll get the Foe money. I kind of doubt it

1363
00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:59,720
Speaker 1: at this point, which is crazy. Let's go to it

1364
00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 1: six the eight million dollars guaranteed. Uh yeah, I agree.

1365
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:06,480
Speaker 6: Age for age relative to cost specifically for sure.

1366
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:07,120
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah.

1367
01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:09,160
Speaker 1: We kind of talked about that too, because I wanted

1368
01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:11,920
Speaker 1: to defend myself in terms of the ranking of Hendrickson

1369
01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:14,200
Speaker 1: that some people thought I had him a little too low,

1370
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:17,320
Speaker 1: like below you know, some of the younger players in

1371
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:19,640
Speaker 1: free agency. But I still had him ahead of way

1372
01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 1: in Mafey And even then I thought, I don't know

1373
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:24,200
Speaker 1: if he's gonna get as much money as those guys,

1374
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:25,760
Speaker 1: because I think it's gonna be like a two year,

1375
01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:28,720
Speaker 1: fifty five million dollar contract, which is which is great money,

1376
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:30,680
Speaker 1: but you're thirty two years old coming off an injury.

1377
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:33,280
Speaker 1: You're not gonna get sixty eight million dollars guaranteed like

1378
01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:35,720
Speaker 1: a da fe oa. Oh my god. The Commanders spent

1379
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:39,160
Speaker 1: a lot of money on Monday. Sixty eight million dollars

1380
01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 1: guaranteed one hundred million dollar contract for Oway. No one

1381
01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:43,920
Speaker 1: made himself more money at the end of the season

1382
01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 1: than Oway and Jalen Phillips. Sixty eight million dollars guaranteed.

1383
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:51,240
Speaker 1: A lot of that money, especially for Oway, is off

1384
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 1: of what he did down the stretch.

1385
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:56,720
Speaker 2: For the Chargers, you're shaking your head.

1386
01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:59,440
Speaker 3: It's look, it's a different scheme. I mean, you go

1387
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 3: out to dan Quins scheme. Now they're gonna be running

1388
01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:05,400
Speaker 3: out the new DC. Deronty Jones comes up, But he's

1389
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:08,440
Speaker 3: a Brian Flores guy, right, So a lot of mixed

1390
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,200
Speaker 3: match stuff is going to cause ask some some versatility.

1391
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:15,760
Speaker 4: But that type of number to a defense that's got

1392
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:16,440
Speaker 4: a lot.

1393
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 1: I mean, reminds me a little bit of old Dan

1394
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:19,919
Speaker 1: Snyder Commanders day.

1395
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,520
Speaker 3: It's it's just, I mean, they've got so many issues

1396
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,320
Speaker 3: on the back end. They had to play Frankie Louver

1397
01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:26,640
Speaker 3: out of position last year.

1398
01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:28,360
Speaker 4: It was a beef.

1399
01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:29,920
Speaker 3: They put him on, they put him on the edge,

1400
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:32,120
Speaker 3: and people just were like, Okay, he's taking himself out

1401
01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:34,120
Speaker 3: of the play by alignment and that's not his fault.

1402
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:37,320
Speaker 3: So maybe this is something where they try to bully

1403
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:39,720
Speaker 3: things because he Oh it was really good for the

1404
01:01:39,800 --> 01:01:42,120
Speaker 3: Chargers last year, but they had some freaking dogs all

1405
01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:42,840
Speaker 3: over that defense.

1406
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:43,480
Speaker 4: At every level.

1407
01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 3: I mean on the edges you had flex players. You

1408
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:48,960
Speaker 3: have my guy two Leetweo Polo tu see. I said

1409
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:52,560
Speaker 3: it like you love it. At every level they had

1410
01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:55,960
Speaker 3: guys who could spring him. Yeah, was not the priority.

1411
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:59,760
Speaker 3: You look at that commander's defensive front. Last year they

1412
01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 3: st acted to be good on first down stop the run.

1413
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:05,320
Speaker 3: That did not work, And now they're trying to be

1414
01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:08,480
Speaker 3: a little more prevalent against pressure or to create pressure.

1415
01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:09,640
Speaker 4: We'll see.

1416
01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:11,160
Speaker 1: I don't want to be too critical because I just

1417
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,520
Speaker 1: think it's like it's a lot of money, money, money,

1418
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:15,880
Speaker 1: But ultimately I still had him as like a top twelve.

1419
01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:18,160
Speaker 1: He's a good player, and like I said, these are

1420
01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:20,440
Speaker 1: the types of players coming into their second contract.

1421
01:02:20,520 --> 01:02:21,840
Speaker 2: They get paid a lot of money and free.

1422
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,680
Speaker 5: They're absolutely paying for potential. I liked it. They're paying

1423
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:26,680
Speaker 5: a younger player. That's a nice change for them.

1424
01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:30,000
Speaker 6: But yeah, Odafeoa was in a math front like and

1425
01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:32,240
Speaker 6: it was a highly productive one Jesse Minter, but he

1426
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 6: had you know, Khalil Mack and Twee Twee. Polo two

1427
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:38,760
Speaker 6: was they were just kicking butt all up and down

1428
01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 6: in rotation with each other and it was fantastic to watch.

1429
01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:43,880
Speaker 6: But again, it was a math front, and this is

1430
01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:47,480
Speaker 6: not a math front. This is a pure rush front essentially.

1431
01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,040
Speaker 6: And Deonte Jones I think is going to be really

1432
01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:52,840
Speaker 6: exciting as this defensive coordinator. I don't know how much

1433
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:55,640
Speaker 6: we're actually gonna veer from dan Quinn here, but one

1434
01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:58,280
Speaker 6: thing about a Flores guy is that the pressure is

1435
01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:00,200
Speaker 6: going to come a lot from the secondary. And so

1436
01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:02,480
Speaker 6: while I love that for our guy Frankieluvu, who's already

1437
01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,520
Speaker 6: on the roster, I'm not quite sure what it looks

1438
01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 6: like for a front that is not necessarily going to

1439
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:09,840
Speaker 6: be able to spring him loose the way that he's.

1440
01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:11,200
Speaker 4: Well, what's on the back end.

1441
01:03:11,240 --> 01:03:13,240
Speaker 3: I mean they had begin cooked for two or three

1442
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:15,960
Speaker 3: years on that back end that this it doesn't work

1443
01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:16,680
Speaker 3: without guys in the.

1444
01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:18,000
Speaker 4: Back of defense.

1445
01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:19,920
Speaker 1: And we'll see what they do in the coming days.

1446
01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:22,640
Speaker 1: And yeah, if you're watching us on YouTube, let's throw

1447
01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:25,680
Speaker 1: up that graphic again of all the Washington signings. Because

1448
01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:28,960
Speaker 1: Laramie Tunzel is back there and he's not doesn't technically

1449
01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 1: count as a signing. But you bring back Mariota who

1450
01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:33,960
Speaker 1: one year seven million dollars compared to some of the

1451
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:36,600
Speaker 1: deals out there for him, looks good to me. For

1452
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 1: the Commander, one of the best backups in the league.

1453
01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:40,680
Speaker 1: I like the trailing Burks coming back. They had re

1454
01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:43,520
Speaker 1: signed a couple of players before we got to Sunday,

1455
01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:47,360
Speaker 1: and then a Meek Robertson who Patrick randomly took very

1456
01:03:47,400 --> 01:03:50,280
Speaker 1: early in our matchmaking draft. He actually goes to the

1457
01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:53,200
Speaker 1: Commanders for nine point three million dollars guaranteed.

1458
01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:55,880
Speaker 2: So that's just like a solid depth piece that they

1459
01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:56,960
Speaker 2: act a.

1460
01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:57,800
Speaker 4: Great side story room.

1461
01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:00,800
Speaker 3: Yes on Larry Tunzell, the guy who go shoots his contract,

1462
01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:01,959
Speaker 3: guy named Lalusani.

1463
01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:04,640
Speaker 4: I used to coach him in youth league football. Wow,

1464
01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:06,040
Speaker 4: my starting wide receiver.

1465
01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:07,240
Speaker 2: He's buying dinner next time.

1466
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,720
Speaker 4: I love I'm so proud of him. I'm so proud

1467
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:11,080
Speaker 4: of him.

1468
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,720
Speaker 3: Yeahs Robert m DJ's cousin, So that's how he met

1469
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,600
Speaker 3: Larry made old miss But Lalu, I.

1470
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,120
Speaker 4: Am proud of you, my man. I'm happy for you

1471
01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:20,200
Speaker 4: and I love it.

1472
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:20,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1473
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:22,760
Speaker 1: I wanted to mention when we talked forty nine ers earlier,

1474
01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:25,840
Speaker 1: there is more chatter that Trent Williams really could be

1475
01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:27,120
Speaker 1: up for grabs.

1476
01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:29,120
Speaker 2: He's looking for more money.

1477
01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:32,600
Speaker 1: Laramie Tunzel, who's younger, gets more money, a two year,

1478
01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:33,600
Speaker 1: sixty million dollars.

1479
01:04:33,720 --> 01:04:35,919
Speaker 4: He's at the top of the contract. Hall of Fame

1480
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 4: negotiated with Tunzel.

1481
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:41,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, no, you're absolutely right, and in like

1482
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:42,880
Speaker 1: Trent Williams is going to want that money, but right

1483
01:04:42,880 --> 01:04:45,280
Speaker 1: now I think Tunsl's a more valuable player. Let's move

1484
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:48,200
Speaker 1: on to the Rams, who just kept spending in the secondary.

1485
01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:52,640
Speaker 1: Jalen Watson thirty four million dollars guaranteed from the Chiefs,

1486
01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:56,840
Speaker 1: one of the top cornerbacks available. They essentially import the

1487
01:04:56,920 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 1: chief secondary. I guess he didn't bring in Brian Cook.

1488
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:01,200
Speaker 1: He goes to the the Chiefs, the safety, but they

1489
01:05:01,200 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 1: have Trent McDuffie, they have Jalen Watson. I remember watching them,

1490
01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:08,439
Speaker 1: you know, in the Super Bowl when they were such

1491
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:11,160
Speaker 1: young players the twenty two draft glass plane right away,

1492
01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:13,840
Speaker 1: and now here they are transplanted and getting paid a

1493
01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,320
Speaker 1: lot of money by your Rams.

1494
01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:20,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's combining two recent blueprints for the Los Angeles

1495
01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:23,120
Speaker 6: Rams by the Los Angeles Rams. When, by the way,

1496
01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:26,360
Speaker 6: remember when they imported the Florida State pass rush in

1497
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:29,200
Speaker 6: the draft. That's the type of chemistry that they like

1498
01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:32,080
Speaker 6: to see. And then again with these two Chiefs corners,

1499
01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:34,560
Speaker 6: they really appreciate guys who already know how to play

1500
01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:37,000
Speaker 6: off each other, not wasting any time in a team

1501
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:39,600
Speaker 6: that is absolutely believing it is bound for the Super

1502
01:05:39,600 --> 01:05:42,680
Speaker 6: Bowl this coming season. And then again, the other blueprint

1503
01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:45,000
Speaker 6: is the f Them Picks era. The dawn of this

1504
01:05:45,080 --> 01:05:48,040
Speaker 6: era did not just start with the Jalen Ramsey trade.

1505
01:05:48,040 --> 01:05:49,360
Speaker 5: It also was Marcus Peters.

1506
01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 6: So they did so for one corner, they went for

1507
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:57,240
Speaker 6: two plus multiple corners that really overhauled their secondary in

1508
01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:00,480
Speaker 6: that sense. Now they're back in a previous era of

1509
01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:04,120
Speaker 6: that same Rams team with the same leadership and very

1510
01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:06,439
Speaker 6: very similar players on both sides of the ball.

1511
01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:08,800
Speaker 3: If you don't to talk about blueprints, what the Rams

1512
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:10,840
Speaker 3: just did is it took a blueprint from the Seattle Seahawks.

1513
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:12,640
Speaker 4: Okay, when I say this, you get Trent McDuffie.

1514
01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:15,800
Speaker 3: He's Devin Witherspoon, right, He's a triangular corner inside outside,

1515
01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:19,320
Speaker 3: can rush off the edge. Quinton Lake is your Nick

1516
01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:23,840
Speaker 3: emn Warry, deep safety, strong safety, can rush off the edge.

1517
01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:26,640
Speaker 3: So now you've got these two triangular guys. Then you

1518
01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:30,000
Speaker 3: add Watson on one outside. Now you can move.

1519
01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 4: People all over.

1520
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:33,280
Speaker 3: You con could play a big nickel, you can play

1521
01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:36,120
Speaker 3: a true nickel. You can do all kinds. I've talked

1522
01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:38,200
Speaker 3: to people with the Rams about this. There's so many

1523
01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:39,960
Speaker 3: things you can do now with those guys up front,

1524
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:43,439
Speaker 3: because you can show a heavy look, but because Quinton

1525
01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:48,080
Speaker 3: Lake can cover, Yes, you cannot schema like they can.

1526
01:06:48,120 --> 01:06:49,960
Speaker 1: And they brought back Cam Curl too, who they know

1527
01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:54,800
Speaker 1: and rock solid there on that there week end Man.

1528
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:57,400
Speaker 1: This is a I like the moves because I like

1529
01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:02,320
Speaker 1: the players great moves. I do think process wise, you know,

1530
01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:05,120
Speaker 1: half to more of these moves that we talk about

1531
01:07:05,120 --> 01:07:07,080
Speaker 1: and we like today they're going to be bad because

1532
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:10,240
Speaker 1: that's just how freegency go. Process Wise, I feel like

1533
01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:13,160
Speaker 1: cornerback is as risky a position as there is to

1534
01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:16,920
Speaker 1: spend and Steve Spagnolo and the Chiefs like their secret sauces.

1535
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:19,640
Speaker 1: They take these middle round guys and they develop them,

1536
01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:21,400
Speaker 1: and they bringing anyone in and they kind of make

1537
01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:23,040
Speaker 1: it work. At one point people are like, you're really

1538
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:24,880
Speaker 1: going to start Jalen Watson in the Super Bowl?

1539
01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:25,520
Speaker 2: Are you kidding me?

1540
01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:28,400
Speaker 1: And it works and McDuffie turns into a superstar as

1541
01:07:28,440 --> 01:07:31,360
Speaker 1: a late first pick, and you're paying, you know, top

1542
01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:34,160
Speaker 1: tier money for them. They Chris Schul has got to deliver.

1543
01:07:34,440 --> 01:07:37,920
Speaker 1: My somewhat hot take is that Chris Shula and Raheem

1544
01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:41,240
Speaker 1: Morris have gotten like a little too much credit for

1545
01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:44,680
Speaker 1: a pretty average defense over the last few years, Like

1546
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:47,200
Speaker 1: okay defense, but they get a lot of pop for

1547
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:49,600
Speaker 1: a for an okay, there's a lot of okay defenses

1548
01:07:49,640 --> 01:07:51,560
Speaker 1: out of there. They got to be better than okay.

1549
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:54,000
Speaker 1: They got to be getting led by their defense.

1550
01:07:54,840 --> 01:08:00,600
Speaker 6: And defense underperformed expectations most of the year last season.

1551
01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:02,880
Speaker 6: And so to your point, yes, Chrishula, big year for

1552
01:08:02,960 --> 01:08:04,760
Speaker 6: him has to take a step forward with that group,

1553
01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:07,520
Speaker 6: that young group that's still mostly cost controlled by the

1554
01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:12,360
Speaker 6: way they've spent their spending big on the Trent McDuffie contract, obviously,

1555
01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:15,880
Speaker 6: but this is so interesting to me as well, because Greg,

1556
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,360
Speaker 6: to your point, the inverse about the RAMS is true.

1557
01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:20,920
Speaker 6: They can't draft corners. They are aware of this at

1558
01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:23,439
Speaker 6: this point, and so but what can they do and

1559
01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:26,519
Speaker 6: what have they done very very well, which is pay

1560
01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:30,719
Speaker 6: and invest in proven players, players with professional data behind

1561
01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:32,400
Speaker 6: them that they know, they can see where they fit,

1562
01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:34,840
Speaker 6: they can see what the puzzle isn't exactly what that

1563
01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:38,000
Speaker 6: return on investment should look like. It's really interesting that

1564
01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:41,000
Speaker 6: Spagnola can do the opposite and has done the office

1565
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:44,600
Speaker 6: oppositely few years later, the Rams less sneed and the

1566
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:50,400
Speaker 6: RAMS are the ones that asking a lot. He's the meme,

1567
01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:55,320
Speaker 6: he's the meme of Spider Man holding the train from

1568
01:08:55,360 --> 01:08:56,599
Speaker 6: like he's straining.

1569
01:08:57,400 --> 01:09:02,880
Speaker 1: Is great, how like great he has been for them,

1570
01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:05,640
Speaker 1: and that he gets his players paid, Like, think of

1571
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:09,560
Speaker 1: how much money Steve Spagnola has helped degenerate for players.

1572
01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:13,000
Speaker 1: But date man, they are asking a lot in the Rams.

1573
01:09:13,479 --> 01:09:15,519
Speaker 1: It just makes this division so fascinating. All right, we're

1574
01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:17,439
Speaker 1: gonna pick up the pace down the stretch here at

1575
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:20,880
Speaker 1: the show. Steve has been on air for about seven

1576
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:21,679
Speaker 1: hours by day.

1577
01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:24,680
Speaker 2: We asked if he wanted out. You know, it's like

1578
01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:25,080
Speaker 2: he's got.

1579
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:28,280
Speaker 1: It's like Tatum coming off his achilles on a minute's limit.

1580
01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:30,880
Speaker 1: There's no minutes limit for Steve Weiss. We're going to

1581
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 1: talk about a trade that happened very early. The New

1582
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:37,719
Speaker 1: York Jets acquired Minka Fitzpatrick. They give up a twenty

1583
01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:41,439
Speaker 1: twenty seven to seven, So the Dolphins, based on that return,

1584
01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:44,839
Speaker 1: we're ready to cut Minka Fitzpatrick. But instead of getting cut,

1585
01:09:45,280 --> 01:09:48,640
Speaker 1: he goes to the Jets signs a new deal. Then

1586
01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:52,840
Speaker 1: they signed to Mario Davis fifteen million dollars guaranteed two years,

1587
01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:56,240
Speaker 1: twenty two million dollars. Another former Aaron Glenn Guy New

1588
01:09:56,360 --> 01:10:01,400
Speaker 1: Orleans comes in. David Anyamata get ten million dollars. He's

1589
01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:04,160
Speaker 1: been just kind of kicking, you know, the can forward

1590
01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,240
Speaker 1: and man, it's a lot of different players. Kingsley and

1591
01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:10,599
Speaker 1: Akbari gets one year, ten million dollars. I mentioned Joseph

1592
01:10:10,680 --> 01:10:14,559
Speaker 1: Asai from the Bengals three years, thirty six million dollars.

1593
01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:18,320
Speaker 1: Remember that they brought in to Vandre's sweat in the trade.

1594
01:10:18,320 --> 01:10:23,200
Speaker 1: This is a totally revamped defense. I'm not sure about

1595
01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:24,439
Speaker 1: the process, Jordan.

1596
01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:26,599
Speaker 4: Why'd they pay Minka too?

1597
01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:29,880
Speaker 6: I I think I know what this process looks like

1598
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:31,960
Speaker 6: to me, it looks like and I saw your post

1599
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:34,040
Speaker 6: about it earlier, Greg, I want to hear about your

1600
01:10:34,040 --> 01:10:36,360
Speaker 6: thoughts on this here in a second as well. You

1601
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:39,360
Speaker 6: don't just you're not just setting us up for success. Greg,

1602
01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:41,439
Speaker 6: as the host, I'd like to also hear your take

1603
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:42,040
Speaker 6: on this.

1604
01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:43,799
Speaker 1: This well, someone needs to be set up with success

1605
01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:44,799
Speaker 1: when it comes to the Jets.

1606
01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:50,960
Speaker 5: This is but this is very patriotsy light.

1607
01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:54,519
Speaker 6: This is very panthersy from a couple of years ago

1608
01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:57,760
Speaker 6: when or excuse me, last offseason and the one before that,

1609
01:10:57,840 --> 01:11:02,440
Speaker 6: when they're basically making up for just decimate a decimated

1610
01:11:02,439 --> 01:11:04,960
Speaker 6: side of the ball, in this case, multiple both sides

1611
01:11:04,960 --> 01:11:09,240
Speaker 6: of the ball, decimated roster, uh failure to draft well,

1612
01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:14,400
Speaker 6: to replace guys, to assent develop players into roles that

1613
01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:17,080
Speaker 6: could give this defense. Especially I'm looking at these some

1614
01:11:17,160 --> 01:11:20,639
Speaker 6: of these signings an edge and also trading away your

1615
01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:24,600
Speaker 6: stars in this regard, this is basically a floor resetting

1616
01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:27,720
Speaker 6: all if most, if not all, of these guys will

1617
01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:30,160
Speaker 6: be replaced by draft picks in two years or less.

1618
01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:33,760
Speaker 6: So at least when you when you sign guys like this,

1619
01:11:33,800 --> 01:11:37,639
Speaker 6: when you sign this this volume of players like this

1620
01:11:37,800 --> 01:11:40,799
Speaker 6: to these prices and this amount and at the ages

1621
01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:42,960
Speaker 6: and all of that stuff. This is a team that

1622
01:11:43,160 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 6: absolutely knows that it has to be competitive this year

1623
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:50,040
Speaker 6: is trying to walk the line between you.

1624
01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:52,080
Speaker 4: That is correct.

1625
01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:54,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I said it feels like they're trying to get

1626
01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:57,120
Speaker 1: over the top, that they're trying to win a title.

1627
01:11:57,280 --> 01:11:58,639
Speaker 2: This what are they doing?

1628
01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:00,960
Speaker 3: The moves they made made it seemed like they feel

1629
01:12:00,960 --> 01:12:01,679
Speaker 3: they're right there.

1630
01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:04,040
Speaker 4: You fire your entire coaching staff.

1631
01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:06,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is why you should have fired all of

1632
01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:07,439
Speaker 1: the coaching staff and the front off.

1633
01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:10,360
Speaker 2: Just you just waste another year doing move like this?

1634
01:12:10,760 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 4: What what is? What is the plan?

1635
01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:16,400
Speaker 6: Maybe maybe I'm just a silver linings person where I'm like, yeah,

1636
01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:19,799
Speaker 6: I think that this is following almost like copying, pasting

1637
01:12:20,160 --> 01:12:22,320
Speaker 6: a different version of what some of these teams that

1638
01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:24,760
Speaker 6: had to rebuild, like multiple.

1639
01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:25,080
Speaker 2: Drafts, I guess.

1640
01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:27,040
Speaker 1: But like if they're zero and five, they're all getting

1641
01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:29,559
Speaker 1: blown out of the building. To Mario Davis, I mean,

1642
01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:32,880
Speaker 1: I mean Aaron Glenn and Darren Mugie and you have

1643
01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:35,400
Speaker 1: a thirty six year old linebacker, like a thirty five

1644
01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:37,200
Speaker 1: year old defensive tackle.

1645
01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:38,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1646
01:12:38,760 --> 01:12:41,160
Speaker 1: To Maka Fitzpatrick who was about to get cut and

1647
01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:41,960
Speaker 1: is on the back.

1648
01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:43,559
Speaker 5: End of saying that's look at all their draft picks.

1649
01:12:43,600 --> 01:12:44,559
Speaker 5: That's all I'm saying is all.

1650
01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:47,040
Speaker 1: The other teams when we're talking about like the floor raising,

1651
01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:49,240
Speaker 1: like those were still guys in the in the middle

1652
01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:50,080
Speaker 1: of their career.

1653
01:12:50,200 --> 01:12:52,000
Speaker 6: But I what I mean is like when you look

1654
01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:54,599
Speaker 6: at teams who have to make up for the fact

1655
01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:57,080
Speaker 6: that they've either had a disaster of a team build

1656
01:12:57,120 --> 01:12:59,200
Speaker 6: for a couple of years in a row, or they

1657
01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:01,840
Speaker 6: they are just estimated in terms of their drafting. These

1658
01:13:01,840 --> 01:13:03,800
Speaker 6: guys are not making it to their rosters. All other

1659
01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:06,160
Speaker 6: Patriots for a couple of years in a row, you

1660
01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:10,040
Speaker 6: have to at least pay higher money to patch areas

1661
01:13:10,040 --> 01:13:12,120
Speaker 6: of your roster and then it replaced them as quickly

1662
01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:14,800
Speaker 6: as possible with the plethora of draft picks that they

1663
01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:17,960
Speaker 6: have available. While I don't think that this necessarily is

1664
01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:20,439
Speaker 6: a is a set of decisions that commits to Aaron

1665
01:13:20,479 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 6: Glenn by any means, I do think it is a

1666
01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:24,519
Speaker 6: set of decisions when you factor in the draft picks

1667
01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:27,519
Speaker 6: as well, that says, hey, Darren Mugie, SI, let's let's

1668
01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:28,439
Speaker 6: see what you got here.

1669
01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:31,320
Speaker 4: They better get Kyler Murray. I mean they, I mean who's.

1670
01:13:31,600 --> 01:13:33,479
Speaker 6: I don't think that they're going to be competitive with it.

1671
01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:35,360
Speaker 6: I mean, that's kind of think they're I mean.

1672
01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:39,080
Speaker 3: These guys, these guys, these guys, I have no idea

1673
01:13:39,120 --> 01:13:41,679
Speaker 3: what they're doing, Like absolutely.

1674
01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:43,719
Speaker 1: What it is committing to Aaron Glenn because you're signing

1675
01:13:43,720 --> 01:13:46,000
Speaker 1: all his old player No, if he's I mean.

1676
01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:47,639
Speaker 4: He's committing, he's committing to himself.

1677
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:49,760
Speaker 6: I just I just don't think that the act of

1678
01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:51,840
Speaker 6: signing these players. Yeah, sure, you're seeing what he's got

1679
01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:54,519
Speaker 6: in this year, absolutely beyond this year. I don't think

1680
01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:56,519
Speaker 6: that any of these I don't think that any of

1681
01:13:56,560 --> 01:13:58,760
Speaker 6: these guys you could say in Stone, are going to

1682
01:13:58,800 --> 01:13:59,920
Speaker 6: be there in twenty twenty seven.

1683
01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:01,160
Speaker 4: Literally looks like.

1684
01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:06,080
Speaker 3: Sigh, sure, right, but this almost looks like an NBA,

1685
01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:10,120
Speaker 3: like Washington Wizards, like cap clearing if you're signing all

1686
01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:12,680
Speaker 3: these guys to one year deals and stuff, so when

1687
01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:15,160
Speaker 3: you blow everyone out after the year, you can have

1688
01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:17,639
Speaker 3: a clean slate and you hope you have dressed Harry.

1689
01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:19,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna quote Ali Connolly.

1690
01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:21,479
Speaker 1: I did ask him for permission when he saw some

1691
01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:24,240
Speaker 1: of these signings, and and if I could quote him

1692
01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:28,120
Speaker 1: on this, he said, absolutely preposterous being the Grandpa Saints.

1693
01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:30,640
Speaker 1: And this is the key part, running a style that

1694
01:14:30,720 --> 01:14:33,479
Speaker 1: the architect of the defense has ditched himself, and that

1695
01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:37,240
Speaker 1: is the key part. Can Aaron Glenn coach defense? He's

1696
01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:40,240
Speaker 1: taking himself back from the he was in awe like

1697
01:14:40,479 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 1: they underperformed so poorly running kind of an old defense.

1698
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:46,040
Speaker 1: And the defense he's talking about is really the Dennis

1699
01:14:46,080 --> 01:14:48,639
Speaker 1: Allen defense who he's evolved with the times.

1700
01:14:48,680 --> 01:14:51,719
Speaker 2: Has Aaron Glenn evolved with the times? We will see.

1701
01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:55,640
Speaker 1: I think I think Osai like makes some sense, and

1702
01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:57,639
Speaker 1: I don't doubt that they'll be better because they can't

1703
01:14:57,640 --> 01:14:59,920
Speaker 1: be worse worse.

1704
01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:01,040
Speaker 4: They can always get worse.

1705
01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:02,120
Speaker 2: They can't get much worse.

1706
01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:03,320
Speaker 4: You can always get.

1707
01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:06,320
Speaker 2: Worse in a bar. Just own your model. Like when

1708
01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:07,679
Speaker 2: a guy who's.

1709
01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:10,320
Speaker 1: Like good player, good player, but keeps coming at a

1710
01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:12,400
Speaker 1: certain price and you're paying double that, they're just burning

1711
01:15:12,439 --> 01:15:15,120
Speaker 1: Woody Johnson's money. Let's move on to the Bucks. We

1712
01:15:15,160 --> 01:15:17,480
Speaker 1: said we were going to pick up and then we wastelewer.

1713
01:15:17,479 --> 01:15:18,759
Speaker 2: That's on me. The Bucks.

1714
01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:21,559
Speaker 1: They prioritize my guy Kate at and over Mike Evans.

1715
01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:25,800
Speaker 1: Who's the real franchise legend. It's Kate Atton twenty million

1716
01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:28,920
Speaker 1: dollars guaranteed three for thirty. I mean, obviously that wasn't

1717
01:15:28,920 --> 01:15:30,559
Speaker 1: going to get Mike Evans in the building. So I

1718
01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:32,760
Speaker 1: have a tongue in cheek when I'm saying that they

1719
01:15:32,800 --> 01:15:34,840
Speaker 1: prioritize them, but they did have to pay him pretty

1720
01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:37,600
Speaker 1: good money. Kenneth Gainwell got a nice contract all the

1721
01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:42,160
Speaker 1: Bucks replacing Rashad White two for fourteen, and then Alex Anzeloni.

1722
01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:46,679
Speaker 1: Very different views on this contract when I went around

1723
01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:48,519
Speaker 1: with a canvas stick, because like the Athletic had it

1724
01:15:48,560 --> 01:15:50,920
Speaker 1: as one of the best signings at all of free agency.

1725
01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:55,160
Speaker 1: Two years, seventeen million dollars. You reportedly took less money

1726
01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:58,640
Speaker 1: than the Giants offered, according to NFL Network, although there

1727
01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:01,160
Speaker 1: is like the income stack. Actually, yeah, they always love

1728
01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:04,120
Speaker 1: advertising that stuff. To me, he's a limit He's kind

1729
01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:05,880
Speaker 1: of a limited player. But I like the and I

1730
01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:07,920
Speaker 1: like the game well move, and I do wonder if

1731
01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:11,559
Speaker 1: they're sitting out there, Jordan, maybe looking at the edge

1732
01:16:11,560 --> 01:16:13,240
Speaker 1: market still they're including Trey.

1733
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:19,639
Speaker 6: Yeah, although I'm thinking about the Bucks' history at the position,

1734
01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:21,559
Speaker 6: and I just don't I think the age would probably

1735
01:16:21,560 --> 01:16:23,800
Speaker 6: be a factor here with with Trey Henderson.

1736
01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:24,280
Speaker 5: Relative to the cost.

1737
01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:29,160
Speaker 6: But I love pairing Bucky Irving with Kenny g Bucky

1738
01:16:29,160 --> 01:16:32,080
Speaker 6: and Kenny, I just I absolutely love this tandem here.

1739
01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:35,679
Speaker 6: And I you know, this is a you know, Zach

1740
01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:38,120
Speaker 6: Robinson's there now, so they're gonna do a couple of

1741
01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:40,599
Speaker 6: different things in the run game. They're not just gonna

1742
01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:44,800
Speaker 6: be one dimensional there and hopefully not run a ton

1743
01:16:44,840 --> 01:16:45,320
Speaker 6: of pistol.

1744
01:16:45,720 --> 01:16:49,440
Speaker 2: We'll see, And he's a fun combo with us.

1745
01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:51,040
Speaker 5: It's just it's just really fun.

1746
01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:52,960
Speaker 6: I think they just need to get back to what

1747
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:55,280
Speaker 6: they do well, running the ball well and setting up

1748
01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:58,439
Speaker 6: shots for their receivers and have Chris Godwin hopefully who's healthy,

1749
01:16:58,680 --> 01:17:00,639
Speaker 6: carve up the middle of the field and have Kate

1750
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:02,320
Speaker 6: Atton block his butt off.

1751
01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:05,080
Speaker 5: That's basically what I fixed the Bucks.

1752
01:17:05,240 --> 01:17:07,599
Speaker 3: If Zach Robbinson doesn't change his way as Kate Otton's

1753
01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:09,480
Speaker 3: gonna be catching a lot of stuff on the sideline.

1754
01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:11,479
Speaker 3: He's more of an across the middle guy. He's got

1755
01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:13,080
Speaker 3: to change that from some of the issues that they

1756
01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:16,320
Speaker 3: had in Atlanta. But look, I think I think you

1757
01:17:16,360 --> 01:17:18,559
Speaker 3: go for Trey Hendrickson. I think this is a big,

1758
01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:22,280
Speaker 3: big year for Todd Bowles and that staff in Tampa

1759
01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:24,479
Speaker 3: to the way they collapsed last year. I mean, I

1760
01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:26,960
Speaker 3: think they've got to get something done. You go for

1761
01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:29,799
Speaker 3: like you make some of the moves this year for Tampa,

1762
01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:32,240
Speaker 3: like the like the Jets made right. You get some

1763
01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:35,360
Speaker 3: veteran players, even if they're on short term deals. Because

1764
01:17:35,360 --> 01:17:37,240
Speaker 3: you get Trey Hendrickson this year, you win. You buy

1765
01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:39,080
Speaker 3: yourself some more time and get a contact these sens

1766
01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:42,200
Speaker 3: as a coach, and then you draft and develop, you know,

1767
01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:44,800
Speaker 3: Jason Light some of these young edge players, but you

1768
01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:46,160
Speaker 3: get a Trey Hendriington to get you.

1769
01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:46,559
Speaker 4: Over the top.

1770
01:17:46,600 --> 01:17:47,160
Speaker 2: And they've tried.

1771
01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:49,360
Speaker 1: They drafted Chris Brassewell in the second round. He hasn't

1772
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:52,559
Speaker 1: really worked out. Yah Yaddaby was a big hit. Hassan Reddick,

1773
01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:54,880
Speaker 1: who was kind of similar to Trey Hendrickson as a

1774
01:17:54,920 --> 01:17:56,760
Speaker 1: free agent in terms of an older guy that you

1775
01:17:56,800 --> 01:17:58,639
Speaker 1: brought in so you could spend more there.

1776
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:00,439
Speaker 2: Logan Hall is a free agent and receiver.

1777
01:18:00,479 --> 01:18:03,160
Speaker 1: Where you don't have Evans, you do still have Jalen McMillan,

1778
01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:06,000
Speaker 1: Abuka and Chris Godwin and some good backups in Cam

1779
01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:09,280
Speaker 1: Johnson and Ted Johnson. So I do just think Evans

1780
01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:12,000
Speaker 1: got boxed out a little by that. Chris Godwin contract

1781
01:18:12,040 --> 01:18:14,519
Speaker 1: in particular, but also they just have good young talent.

1782
01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:16,600
Speaker 1: The Bears got on the board with a couple of

1783
01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:21,000
Speaker 1: defensive signings. Kobe Bryant is leaving the Seahawks. He's going

1784
01:18:21,240 --> 01:18:25,320
Speaker 1: to Chicago. We heard that Kevin Byard might be the

1785
01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:28,280
Speaker 1: priority there over Takwan Brisker Neat.

1786
01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:29,840
Speaker 2: Both of them remain free agents.

1787
01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:32,400
Speaker 1: Rist got the injury stuff, but Bryant would be a

1788
01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:35,000
Speaker 1: good a good combo I think with Bayard and then

1789
01:18:35,120 --> 01:18:39,519
Speaker 1: Devin Bush at linebacker twenty one million dollars guaranteed three years,

1790
01:18:39,840 --> 01:18:42,640
Speaker 1: thirty million dollars. Like I said, the off ball linebackers

1791
01:18:42,960 --> 01:18:46,960
Speaker 1: got paid coming off a career year and interesting two

1792
01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:48,599
Speaker 1: for there for the Bears on.

1793
01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:52,880
Speaker 6: Defense, Yeah, I think it's interesting because they this is

1794
01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:55,320
Speaker 6: Kobe Bryant especially was one of the signings that I

1795
01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:58,240
Speaker 6: got really pretty excited about for the Bears and seeing

1796
01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:02,280
Speaker 6: what Detis Allen in the renaissance can can do in

1797
01:19:02,439 --> 01:19:05,000
Speaker 6: activating him and this. You know, we're looking at these

1798
01:19:05,040 --> 01:19:07,360
Speaker 6: moves in a vacuum, and the Bears have already had

1799
01:19:07,400 --> 01:19:11,880
Speaker 6: like quite a quite adventurous free agency period slash enter

1800
01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:14,759
Speaker 6: to free agency period with your dominant firing and then

1801
01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:15,800
Speaker 6: some of the shuffling on.

1802
01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:19,240
Speaker 1: The offsby reportedly we're going to give up a first

1803
01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:20,760
Speaker 1: for him, but it was a late first and so

1804
01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:21,840
Speaker 1: that kind of killed them.

1805
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:25,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was the the Ravens picking higher than the Bears,

1806
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:26,880
Speaker 6: which almost never happens, guys.

1807
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:29,240
Speaker 5: So that's like, that's like pretty incredible.

1808
01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:31,760
Speaker 6: And then I, you know, I think it's interesting because

1809
01:19:31,760 --> 01:19:34,599
Speaker 6: this is a Bears team that needs needed to get

1810
01:19:35,680 --> 01:19:37,080
Speaker 6: a little bit more of a past or a lot

1811
01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:39,559
Speaker 6: more of a pass rush going. So that's still something

1812
01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:41,200
Speaker 6: that I'm interested in seeing how they do. But it

1813
01:19:41,240 --> 01:19:44,519
Speaker 6: looks like, if I read my very quick notification correctly,

1814
01:19:44,560 --> 01:19:47,320
Speaker 6: Braxton Miller is going to be coming back. So while

1815
01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:50,840
Speaker 6: they wait for Ozzy Trappilo to recover from that injury,

1816
01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:53,320
Speaker 6: he might give them a little bit of insurance. We

1817
01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:56,360
Speaker 6: can cut that if I read that Jones, Braxton Jones,

1818
01:19:56,360 --> 01:19:58,320
Speaker 6: excuse me, that.

1819
01:19:58,360 --> 01:19:59,479
Speaker 5: Was a player, Braxton Jones.

1820
01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:01,320
Speaker 2: Player name a guy, name a guy.

1821
01:20:01,439 --> 01:20:04,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, And also wanted to shout out my dear friend

1822
01:20:04,439 --> 01:20:06,639
Speaker 6: Kevin Fishbain and his wife Annie, who at the start

1823
01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:09,639
Speaker 6: of free agency and on the day Drew Dolloman retired,

1824
01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:11,479
Speaker 6: gave birth to their first girl.

1825
01:20:11,600 --> 01:20:11,880
Speaker 4: Wow.

1826
01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:14,080
Speaker 6: Their first of three or excuse me, their third of

1827
01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:17,439
Speaker 6: three children and their first girl, Gracie may Fishbain. Congrats

1828
01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:20,160
Speaker 6: the Fishbains, Kevin your girl, dad, don't be scared.

1829
01:20:20,280 --> 01:20:23,880
Speaker 4: Well done. We'll put on the Devin Bush thing.

1830
01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:25,680
Speaker 3: This this kind of caught me a little bit that

1831
01:20:25,720 --> 01:20:27,840
Speaker 3: he they came off the market as quickly as he did.

1832
01:20:27,960 --> 01:20:29,800
Speaker 4: Clearly they feel he is a scheme fit.

1833
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:33,920
Speaker 3: He doesn't fit a lot of the linebackers that Dennis

1834
01:20:33,960 --> 01:20:35,320
Speaker 3: Allen typically has at that spot.

1835
01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:36,440
Speaker 4: He's got some hammers.

1836
01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:38,160
Speaker 3: You know, you think about some of the guys you had,

1837
01:20:38,200 --> 01:20:39,439
Speaker 3: guys like Caden Nell's guys.

1838
01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:42,200
Speaker 2: I couldn't Actually I thought about Kiden Nells. Couldn't he do?

1839
01:20:42,400 --> 01:20:43,080
Speaker 2: Didn't he? Kind?

1840
01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:45,679
Speaker 1: I know he's not that big of a guy, big dude,

1841
01:20:46,600 --> 01:20:48,439
Speaker 1: I know, But didn't didn't Bush kind.

1842
01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:49,960
Speaker 2: Of last year be that guy?

1843
01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:51,760
Speaker 1: Now he was very lucky to be playing next to

1844
01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:54,080
Speaker 1: sweat correct, but he was that move guy that you

1845
01:20:54,080 --> 01:20:55,960
Speaker 1: could rush and so so so.

1846
01:20:56,080 --> 01:20:56,720
Speaker 4: Let me tell you this.

1847
01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:00,000
Speaker 3: You have two inside linebackers who are high volume tacklers.

1848
01:21:00,120 --> 01:21:01,000
Speaker 4: What does that tell you?

1849
01:21:01,760 --> 01:21:04,559
Speaker 3: The guys up front weren't very freaking good and these

1850
01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:06,519
Speaker 3: guys had to make a ton of plays they put

1851
01:21:06,520 --> 01:21:07,599
Speaker 3: a beating on their bodies.

1852
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:10,559
Speaker 4: One okay too. They've got great instincts and they.

1853
01:21:10,439 --> 01:21:12,840
Speaker 3: Know how to play their football players, right they They've

1854
01:21:12,840 --> 01:21:13,439
Speaker 3: got that feel.

1855
01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:15,599
Speaker 4: So that's one thing I really like about Bush right here.

1856
01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:19,040
Speaker 3: It's just when you when you look at bad teams,

1857
01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:23,200
Speaker 3: that's where your high volume inside linebacker tacklers are. Every year,

1858
01:21:23,240 --> 01:21:27,240
Speaker 3: your leading tacklers would be on bad teams because teams

1859
01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:29,240
Speaker 3: don't have to throw the ball on them because they're

1860
01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:32,320
Speaker 3: jamming him, you know, down down the things. So and

1861
01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:37,040
Speaker 3: I'm beginning, I'm not necessarily saying, uh, I don't like this.

1862
01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:39,799
Speaker 2: It's it was just a different I was surprised.

1863
01:21:39,800 --> 01:21:41,519
Speaker 4: It wasn't a fit that I was expecting for.

1864
01:21:41,840 --> 01:21:43,800
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure what to think about Devin Bush in

1865
01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:45,479
Speaker 1: terms of like ranking them and putting them against the

1866
01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:47,080
Speaker 1: other offt balling rich because if.

1867
01:21:47,040 --> 01:21:50,120
Speaker 2: You just watched just last year, he was a fun

1868
01:21:50,160 --> 01:21:50,720
Speaker 2: player to watch.

1869
01:21:50,760 --> 01:21:53,120
Speaker 1: Devin Bush was fantastic, and he had been more or

1870
01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:55,080
Speaker 1: less a bust before then. I was like, what do

1871
01:21:55,160 --> 01:21:57,840
Speaker 1: you trust they're trusting last year? They have a vision

1872
01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:02,680
Speaker 1: for some reason. Now this Ryan Poles Bears like situation,

1873
01:22:03,160 --> 01:22:05,240
Speaker 1: just everything just feels like it's gonna go well. And

1874
01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:07,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, if they like Devin Bush, they must

1875
01:22:07,160 --> 01:22:10,040
Speaker 1: have a vision for him. I see it, Ryan Poles,

1876
01:22:10,080 --> 01:22:13,760
Speaker 1: anyone that comes on our show two straight years at

1877
01:22:13,760 --> 01:22:16,679
Speaker 1: the scouting combine, you're gonna get better coverage on the show.

1878
01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:20,519
Speaker 1: So just a thought for everyone out there. The Patriots,

1879
01:22:20,560 --> 01:22:22,280
Speaker 1: they get a lot of coverage. They won't get much

1880
01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:24,840
Speaker 1: in this show because I think they were in on

1881
01:22:24,880 --> 01:22:25,360
Speaker 1: Alec Pierce.

1882
01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:25,920
Speaker 2: Didn't get him.

1883
01:22:25,960 --> 01:22:29,160
Speaker 1: They do get Draymont Jones three years, thirty nine million dollars.

1884
01:22:29,360 --> 01:22:31,559
Speaker 1: Not sure if I'm in love with the whole, Like, hey,

1885
01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:35,679
Speaker 1: let's keep bringing in, you know, like these big edges

1886
01:22:35,720 --> 01:22:38,080
Speaker 1: like he they had Harrow Landry, which is a different

1887
01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:42,720
Speaker 1: type of guy from the Titans. Draymond Jones at one

1888
01:22:42,720 --> 01:22:45,800
Speaker 1: point with the Titans and everything and three years thirty

1889
01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:46,759
Speaker 1: nine nine scheme.

1890
01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:48,040
Speaker 4: It's it's an edge setting scheme.

1891
01:22:48,080 --> 01:22:50,960
Speaker 3: They want to shut the edge, collapse a pocket more

1892
01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:52,639
Speaker 3: than they want a guy who win. That's just how

1893
01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:55,320
Speaker 3: my verbel coaches. That's that's how he played.

1894
01:22:55,080 --> 01:22:56,160
Speaker 2: And he played well last year.

1895
01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:58,519
Speaker 1: A Draymond jokes, I guess what I'm saying is And

1896
01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:00,960
Speaker 1: of course he started with the Titans. Wasn't a carryover

1897
01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:03,800
Speaker 1: I mean with the Broncos. I misspoke there. He was

1898
01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:06,080
Speaker 1: with the Titans very briefly in twenty twenty five before

1899
01:23:06,120 --> 01:23:08,439
Speaker 1: he went to the Ravens Long Day, so he gets

1900
01:23:08,439 --> 01:23:11,120
Speaker 1: a lot of money. That means they probably won't re

1901
01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:14,960
Speaker 1: sign Caleb on Chason. They did sign Reggie Gilliam, who's

1902
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:16,720
Speaker 1: one of the most fun fullbacks in the league. I

1903
01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:21,080
Speaker 1: know Bill's fans won't like that him going to the Patriots,

1904
01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:24,720
Speaker 1: and then they cut Glawny to via Caid Mays is

1905
01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:27,839
Speaker 1: an interesting offensive lineman. They probably had never been mentioned

1906
01:23:27,920 --> 01:23:32,200
Speaker 1: on NFL Daily until recently, and we put him pretty

1907
01:23:32,240 --> 01:23:35,160
Speaker 1: high in the top fifty five or so free agents.

1908
01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:38,320
Speaker 1: Gets fourteen million dollars guaranteed from the Lions. They start

1909
01:23:38,360 --> 01:23:41,120
Speaker 1: to remake their offensive line, and I feel like this

1910
01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:44,559
Speaker 1: was going to be very popular with Brandon Thorne and

1911
01:23:44,640 --> 01:23:48,400
Speaker 1: his sub stack that the trench Mob. I feel like

1912
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:50,120
Speaker 1: this is going to be the hipster Oh that's the

1913
01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:50,760
Speaker 1: pick of the year.

1914
01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:54,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, you said that off air. I was glad you

1915
01:23:54,479 --> 01:23:56,559
Speaker 6: also said it on the show because it's a good line.

1916
01:23:56,560 --> 01:23:58,479
Speaker 6: I think that's true. I think that's the one where

1917
01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:02,479
Speaker 6: all of the you know, the film watching community will

1918
01:24:02,479 --> 01:24:04,679
Speaker 6: sort of be like, oh, we you know, we said

1919
01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:07,200
Speaker 6: this back in in free agency, that this is going

1920
01:24:07,240 --> 01:24:10,120
Speaker 6: to pop. It's him and Drew Petsing paired together now,

1921
01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:12,800
Speaker 6: which I really like. I think that Drew Petsing working

1922
01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:16,440
Speaker 6: with a good center has some potential. And the Lions

1923
01:24:16,479 --> 01:24:19,040
Speaker 6: struggling to replace.

1924
01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:25,200
Speaker 1: Why can't I Now they cut Graham Glasgow, they cut

1925
01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:27,200
Speaker 1: Taylor Decker, so they have a lot of spots to fill.

1926
01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:28,439
Speaker 2: They filled One's a lot of.

1927
01:24:28,439 --> 01:24:29,240
Speaker 5: Names going around.

1928
01:24:29,280 --> 01:24:30,920
Speaker 6: I you know what, and I and I love it

1929
01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:33,240
Speaker 6: because it renchors them in a way. He was a

1930
01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:34,920
Speaker 6: player who I mentioned a couple of shows ago. I

1931
01:24:34,960 --> 01:24:37,680
Speaker 6: really wish the Panthers would have kept. I think that

1932
01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:40,200
Speaker 6: he is super, super talented and this is going to

1933
01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:42,240
Speaker 6: be a fun ad for the Lions getting their offensive

1934
01:24:42,280 --> 01:24:42,639
Speaker 6: line back.

1935
01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:44,479
Speaker 1: That's the thing with the Panthers. They signed away as

1936
01:24:44,479 --> 01:24:46,559
Speaker 1: a flashy move. I'm really curious to see the rest

1937
01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:48,800
Speaker 1: of their free agency because they have a lot of rossills.

1938
01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:50,559
Speaker 2: The Browns, We're all doing it.

1939
01:24:50,600 --> 01:24:55,320
Speaker 1: We said it was going to be five five free

1940
01:24:55,360 --> 01:24:57,800
Speaker 1: agent spots, I mean five offensive line spots that the

1941
01:24:57,840 --> 01:25:01,040
Speaker 1: Browns need to fill. Yes, right, and they got one

1942
01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:04,879
Speaker 1: done the other day with Titus Hourd and now Zion Johnson.

1943
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:08,080
Speaker 1: They're at three years, forty nine million dollars, thirty two

1944
01:25:08,120 --> 01:25:11,559
Speaker 1: million dollars guaranteed, there's a lot of money for Zion Johns.

1945
01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:12,920
Speaker 2: He I could make.

1946
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:14,680
Speaker 1: We could do a show on who made themselves the

1947
01:25:14,720 --> 01:25:16,439
Speaker 1: most amount of money, like in the back end of

1948
01:25:16,439 --> 01:25:21,640
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, Oway, Jalen Phillips, Zion Johnson all very

1949
01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:22,160
Speaker 1: high on one.

1950
01:25:22,200 --> 01:25:23,960
Speaker 4: Well, that's because Gion Johnson.

1951
01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:27,080
Speaker 3: Johnson was the last man standing on that Chargers offensive line.

1952
01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:30,360
Speaker 3: But look, the one thing I do like with the Browns,

1953
01:25:30,400 --> 01:25:33,720
Speaker 3: they're showing their identity. They're going guard center guard, right,

1954
01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:37,559
Speaker 3: you put two guards at your priority. That is telling

1955
01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:39,640
Speaker 3: you how you want to build your offense. And a

1956
01:25:39,680 --> 01:25:42,360
Speaker 3: lot of teams and Sean Payton started this years ago.

1957
01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:46,120
Speaker 3: Guard center guard will get two very functional athletic tackles,

1958
01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:48,519
Speaker 3: or one athletic tackle and then one kind of stone

1959
01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:51,320
Speaker 3: wall tackle. But guard center guard, because we had a

1960
01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:53,719
Speaker 3: shorter quarterback, is where we want to handle our business.

1961
01:25:53,960 --> 01:25:56,040
Speaker 3: And that's clearly how Todd Monkin is trying to shape

1962
01:25:56,040 --> 01:25:57,120
Speaker 3: this offensive front of Cleveland.

1963
01:25:57,240 --> 01:25:59,360
Speaker 6: Andy wants to run the ball and winch on gen

1964
01:25:59,439 --> 01:26:01,439
Speaker 6: kids obviously as a long road of recovery.

1965
01:26:01,439 --> 01:26:02,760
Speaker 5: Pretty gruesome injury.

1966
01:26:02,479 --> 01:26:05,599
Speaker 6: That he experienced, but man, was he special, like such

1967
01:26:05,640 --> 01:26:08,200
Speaker 6: a special draft pick for them prior to that, and

1968
01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:10,800
Speaker 6: they want to run the ball and Zion Johnson could

1969
01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:13,519
Speaker 6: absolutely great a road and he was really the only

1970
01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:14,280
Speaker 6: one left doing it.

1971
01:26:14,760 --> 01:26:16,679
Speaker 1: A little bit of a red flag though, that Jim

1972
01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:20,400
Speaker 1: Harbaugh after saying he was the greatest player of all

1973
01:26:20,439 --> 01:26:23,360
Speaker 1: time when he was really struggling to even get playing

1974
01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:26,320
Speaker 1: time and then lets him go. That's recurring when they

1975
01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:28,920
Speaker 1: let your other guard go too, like you absolutely need them.

1976
01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:32,400
Speaker 1: The Chargers talk about study and identity. They give twenty

1977
01:26:32,439 --> 01:26:36,479
Speaker 1: four million dollars to your hipster's favorite friend, and by

1978
01:26:36,479 --> 01:26:39,639
Speaker 1: that I mean Oli Connelly, our friend three years, twenty

1979
01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:43,600
Speaker 1: four million dollars, seventeen million dollars guaranteed for the Ravens'

1980
01:26:43,720 --> 01:26:46,640
Speaker 1: third tight end last year, but known as one of

1981
01:26:46,640 --> 01:26:49,160
Speaker 1: the best blocking tight ends in the league. And you

1982
01:26:49,240 --> 01:26:52,360
Speaker 1: combine him with a Ronde Gadson, and then you add

1983
01:26:52,560 --> 01:26:56,839
Speaker 1: alec Ingold, the fullback from Mike McDaniel with him in Miami.

1984
01:26:57,800 --> 01:27:00,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think Scott Mattlex playing fullback anymore.

1985
01:27:00,240 --> 01:27:03,200
Speaker 1: But man, you you also re signed Trevor Penning as

1986
01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:06,240
Speaker 1: a swing tackle, which a little surprised there, Tyler Biattish

1987
01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:09,840
Speaker 1: you signed at center. And you know the interesting thing

1988
01:27:09,880 --> 01:27:11,920
Speaker 1: with Owa depending on how they handle the rest of

1989
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:16,800
Speaker 1: free agency. And I suspect they're cognizant of this. Joe Horties, Uh,

1990
01:27:17,160 --> 01:27:20,360
Speaker 1: they're going to get a third round pick for a Dafeoway. Yeah,

1991
01:27:20,720 --> 01:27:23,479
Speaker 1: pretty good business compensatory pick. So how it works is

1992
01:27:23,880 --> 01:27:27,160
Speaker 1: it gets matched up based on the signings that you have.

1993
01:27:27,320 --> 01:27:30,200
Speaker 1: But assuming they don't sign anyone at the super top

1994
01:27:30,240 --> 01:27:32,240
Speaker 1: of the free agency market that would block out that

1995
01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:34,400
Speaker 1: always signing. They got them for eight weeks, got a

1996
01:27:34,439 --> 01:27:35,920
Speaker 1: ton of production out of them, and they're going to

1997
01:27:35,960 --> 01:27:39,320
Speaker 1: get like a third round compensatory pick back And uh,

1998
01:27:39,400 --> 01:27:41,320
Speaker 1: they're they're showing you who they are by.

1999
01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:43,679
Speaker 3: Just well, they're showing you they're going to sign play

2000
01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:46,600
Speaker 3: twenty two personnel. You get a full back, two tight ends,

2001
01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:49,200
Speaker 3: and look getting Charlie corp about.

2002
01:27:48,960 --> 01:27:50,640
Speaker 2: Two full backs and two tight ends. What would that

2003
01:27:50,720 --> 01:27:51,200
Speaker 2: even be called?

2004
01:27:51,200 --> 01:27:52,120
Speaker 4: I guess two?

2005
01:27:52,439 --> 01:27:55,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know the bullback should have a different day.

2006
01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:58,240
Speaker 5: I know I want forty four. I want this forty four,

2007
01:28:00,200 --> 01:28:01,360
Speaker 5: huge forty five, let's carve it.

2008
01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:03,760
Speaker 3: But the one thing I like I can colar there

2009
01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:06,799
Speaker 3: is the injuries to the tackles. You've got a monster

2010
01:28:06,960 --> 01:28:09,880
Speaker 3: tight end who can maybe offset you know, all or

2011
01:28:09,920 --> 01:28:11,760
Speaker 3: Slater when they're when they're coming back, or to help

2012
01:28:11,800 --> 01:28:14,439
Speaker 3: them come along in certain formations, because it's not like

2013
01:28:14,479 --> 01:28:16,680
Speaker 3: they played a division where there aren't a bunch of

2014
01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:20,360
Speaker 3: jackhammers on the defensive lines like up in Tenever and

2015
01:28:20,439 --> 01:28:21,080
Speaker 3: Kansas City.

2016
01:28:21,600 --> 01:28:23,720
Speaker 6: One thing I really love about this is, you know,

2017
01:28:23,800 --> 01:28:26,040
Speaker 6: when it was Greg Roman, I think we'd be like, yeah,

2018
01:28:26,080 --> 01:28:28,320
Speaker 6: that'll be you know, he wants to load up heavy

2019
01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:30,559
Speaker 6: and whatever whatever, Right, we know what they want to do.

2020
01:28:31,240 --> 01:28:34,240
Speaker 6: This is Mike McDaniel at OC, which means that yes,

2021
01:28:34,360 --> 01:28:37,439
Speaker 6: he wants to load up heavy and do really interesting

2022
01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:39,439
Speaker 6: run formations and all of those types of things with

2023
01:28:39,479 --> 01:28:40,760
Speaker 6: the different personnels.

2024
01:28:41,160 --> 01:28:42,920
Speaker 5: But it also gives him such a.

2025
01:28:42,760 --> 01:28:46,519
Speaker 6: Blank canvas for all the different like scheme looks and

2026
01:28:46,600 --> 01:28:50,120
Speaker 6: different sort of fake you out thinking run personnel. And

2027
01:28:50,160 --> 01:28:52,240
Speaker 6: it's another person I know, by the way, Justin Herbert

2028
01:28:52,280 --> 01:28:54,960
Speaker 6: is back there. Like there's just such a ground for

2029
01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:59,120
Speaker 6: creativity with this personnel, and it's I love the sort

2030
01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:01,720
Speaker 6: of do hour of it, where like you look at

2031
01:29:01,720 --> 01:29:05,880
Speaker 6: these like massive blocking like fullbacks and Charlie Coolar is

2032
01:29:05,920 --> 01:29:08,559
Speaker 6: the blocking tight end and these guys and you think like, oh,

2033
01:29:08,840 --> 01:29:12,519
Speaker 6: old school, but no, you look at these in tandem

2034
01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:14,760
Speaker 6: with Mike McDaniel and you think, we're gonna see some

2035
01:29:14,800 --> 01:29:16,400
Speaker 6: really interesting stuff this year.

2036
01:29:16,400 --> 01:29:18,840
Speaker 1: So you're saying, it's kind of like Greg Roman wanted

2037
01:29:18,880 --> 01:29:21,640
Speaker 1: to do it, except this time it'll work, you know,

2038
01:29:22,040 --> 01:29:23,479
Speaker 1: like it'll actually be a sect.

2039
01:29:23,640 --> 01:29:25,080
Speaker 2: I don't well, that's how I'm putting.

2040
01:29:25,240 --> 01:29:27,200
Speaker 5: I don't know that that's actually what I'm saying.

2041
01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:27,799
Speaker 2: Ravens.

2042
01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:31,080
Speaker 1: The Ravens bring back John Simpson who went to the Jets.

2043
01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:33,080
Speaker 1: He was a guard for the Jets for a while.

2044
01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:36,439
Speaker 1: They're trying to replace their interior offensive line. They lost

2045
01:29:36,479 --> 01:29:40,160
Speaker 1: Linderbaum three years, thirty million dollars. Uh, that's good. He's

2046
01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:45,400
Speaker 1: kind of gonna help replace Daniel, who knows.

2047
01:29:45,200 --> 01:29:46,559
Speaker 4: It's your balls riker.

2048
01:29:46,640 --> 01:29:49,800
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe foul Ale will return, see I fixed it.

2049
01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:52,920
Speaker 1: The Texans have re signed ed Ingram, who made himself

2050
01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:55,120
Speaker 1: a lot of money last year, three years, thirty seven

2051
01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:58,960
Speaker 1: million dollars. They also brought back Sheldon Rankins, who signed

2052
01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:03,360
Speaker 1: a two year twelve million dollar contract. Read Blanket was

2053
01:30:03,400 --> 01:30:07,280
Speaker 1: added late in the day three years, twenty four million

2054
01:30:07,320 --> 01:30:10,400
Speaker 1: dollars sixteen million dollars guaranteed to not quite as.

2055
01:30:10,400 --> 01:30:12,639
Speaker 2: Much as some of the other safeties on the market.

2056
01:30:13,360 --> 01:30:15,280
Speaker 1: Again, maybe they were looking at my rankings because he

2057
01:30:15,400 --> 01:30:18,320
Speaker 1: was kind of towards the bottom.

2058
01:30:18,360 --> 01:30:19,080
Speaker 2: Some concern.

2059
01:30:19,800 --> 01:30:22,599
Speaker 4: It's Greg Crankings on point scheme.

2060
01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:25,599
Speaker 6: They had it pulled up on one on like dual monitors.

2061
01:30:25,640 --> 01:30:27,360
Speaker 6: One whole monitor was just Greg's rank.

2062
01:30:27,400 --> 01:30:31,639
Speaker 1: They've made so many re signings and moves, they still

2063
01:30:31,680 --> 01:30:33,080
Speaker 1: will have more to go.

2064
01:30:33,120 --> 01:30:35,320
Speaker 2: But I know you're a big Read Blanket ship believer.

2065
01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:39,040
Speaker 6: No, I actually am not. I'm sort of neutral on specifically.

2066
01:30:39,080 --> 01:30:40,720
Speaker 6: I said I like that the Texans went out and

2067
01:30:40,720 --> 01:30:44,360
Speaker 6: got him. Yeah, because Alaya for him, the physicality potential here.

2068
01:30:44,479 --> 01:30:47,280
Speaker 6: I like the fit within this secondary. He's not obviously,

2069
01:30:47,320 --> 01:30:49,040
Speaker 6: he's a player who works the best when he's not

2070
01:30:49,080 --> 01:30:51,760
Speaker 6: asked to do everything. Similar to the last secondary that

2071
01:30:51,840 --> 01:30:53,519
Speaker 6: he was just a part of, he's not even he's

2072
01:30:53,560 --> 01:30:55,479
Speaker 6: not even going to be close to the star in

2073
01:30:55,560 --> 01:30:57,519
Speaker 6: this secondary. But he's going to need to play a role.

2074
01:30:57,560 --> 01:30:59,800
Speaker 6: He's gonna have to be physical, and that's what he

2075
01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:02,200
Speaker 6: can do so. I like this as sort of a

2076
01:31:02,240 --> 01:31:05,360
Speaker 6: part the whole move. The Texans obviously very clearly can

2077
01:31:05,360 --> 01:31:07,840
Speaker 6: think about that in this defense.

2078
01:31:07,479 --> 01:31:09,240
Speaker 5: Because they have stars all over the field.

2079
01:31:09,240 --> 01:31:13,120
Speaker 1: Shout out to Sheldon Rankins. He's signed sick NFL contract.

2080
01:31:13,160 --> 01:31:16,160
Speaker 4: He is, he's he's in the he's maybe at the base, and.

2081
01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:17,719
Speaker 2: He had a torn achilles in his career.

2082
01:31:18,320 --> 01:31:19,640
Speaker 1: You know, he was a first round pick that the

2083
01:31:19,640 --> 01:31:22,000
Speaker 1: Saints fans kind of were like, I like him, but

2084
01:31:23,200 --> 01:31:26,880
Speaker 1: nice career. Tyler Algier signs for the Cardinals two years,

2085
01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:29,680
Speaker 1: twelve million dollars and then I don't get it, one

2086
01:31:29,680 --> 01:31:33,360
Speaker 1: of the most depressing signings of the day. That's not it,

2087
01:31:33,400 --> 01:31:36,000
Speaker 1: you thought, Okay, I'll stop with Algier before getting to Minschi.

2088
01:31:36,479 --> 01:31:37,759
Speaker 2: What didn't you get about Algier?

2089
01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:39,719
Speaker 4: Well, first off, it's.

2090
01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:44,639
Speaker 3: It's a two year, twelve point Okay, why rush for that.

2091
01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:45,840
Speaker 4: You're gonna get that if you wait.

2092
01:31:46,040 --> 01:31:46,640
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

2093
01:31:47,120 --> 01:31:49,920
Speaker 1: I think that's a good contract for Tyler Algier getting sixty's.

2094
01:31:50,040 --> 01:31:52,880
Speaker 3: He's he's so similar to James Connor. Okay, if he

2095
01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:55,519
Speaker 3: got that in Denver, well, I think with the R. J.

2096
01:31:55,680 --> 01:31:57,559
Speaker 3: Harvey you could have the kind of that mark Ingram

2097
01:31:57,600 --> 01:32:00,000
Speaker 3: Alvin Kamara type of combo they resigned.

2098
01:32:00,080 --> 01:32:00,639
Speaker 2: JK. Dobbs.

2099
01:32:00,640 --> 01:32:01,320
Speaker 4: I don't get that.

2100
01:32:01,560 --> 01:32:04,080
Speaker 2: I don't get why other teams wouldn't spend more.

2101
01:32:03,960 --> 01:32:06,040
Speaker 6: But or just came from a team where they signed

2102
01:32:06,080 --> 01:32:10,320
Speaker 6: basically identical running backs for their one two. So he's

2103
01:32:10,320 --> 01:32:10,800
Speaker 6: doing the same.

2104
01:32:10,960 --> 01:32:12,360
Speaker 4: That's exactly what Karen Williams.

2105
01:32:12,400 --> 01:32:14,599
Speaker 1: You also have Trey Benson just sitting there. That's that's

2106
01:32:14,640 --> 01:32:17,720
Speaker 1: not gonna happen. I like that move for the Cardinals.

2107
01:32:18,720 --> 01:32:20,680
Speaker 1: To me, I'm not surprised. I think Algier is a

2108
01:32:20,680 --> 01:32:24,760
Speaker 1: good player, but he's a one bee that isn't I

2109
01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:27,919
Speaker 1: just it's not the money that guy doesn't Yeah.

2110
01:32:27,720 --> 01:32:30,599
Speaker 3: He's the same, but like you said, it's just like yeah,

2111
01:32:30,720 --> 01:32:32,799
Speaker 3: you know Kyen Williams and Blake Koram.

2112
01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:35,640
Speaker 1: I'd like him in Denver better. Kendrick Bourne, who was

2113
01:32:35,800 --> 01:32:38,519
Speaker 1: on our air as free agency started. I thought that

2114
01:32:38,560 --> 01:32:41,760
Speaker 1: was interesting, really good, uh like camera president. Oh yeah,

2115
01:32:41,800 --> 01:32:45,839
Speaker 1: he could be a good good NFL network two years,

2116
01:32:45,920 --> 01:32:51,400
Speaker 1: eleven million dollars with Michael Fleur returning to his old buddy,

2117
01:32:51,920 --> 01:32:52,200
Speaker 1: So you.

2118
01:32:52,200 --> 01:32:55,240
Speaker 3: Know what that tells me? With Michael floor mac Jones

2119
01:32:55,240 --> 01:32:56,360
Speaker 3: is headed down to Arizona.

2120
01:32:57,400 --> 01:33:00,360
Speaker 1: I don't think so because they've got their starter and

2121
01:33:00,439 --> 01:33:04,919
Speaker 1: his name is Jacoby Brissette, can backup is Gardner Minshew.

2122
01:33:05,479 --> 01:33:08,200
Speaker 1: So when they signed Gardner Minshew, I thought him getting

2123
01:33:08,200 --> 01:33:10,439
Speaker 1: five point seventy five million dollars was one of the

2124
01:33:10,479 --> 01:33:14,280
Speaker 1: most surprising contracts of the day. No other contract. I

2125
01:33:14,280 --> 01:33:17,000
Speaker 1: don't think Patrick will feel like I'm betraying as trust

2126
01:33:17,479 --> 01:33:20,120
Speaker 1: made Patrick Clayban more mad. He could not believe that

2127
01:33:20,200 --> 01:33:23,360
Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew got a five hundred percent raise when we

2128
01:33:23,400 --> 01:33:27,080
Speaker 1: thought he tore his acl and then quickly after Minshew signed,

2129
01:33:27,560 --> 01:33:31,040
Speaker 1: multiple insiders, including Tom Pellisero, said the plan is clear.

2130
01:33:31,200 --> 01:33:33,960
Speaker 2: Jacoby Brissett is the one, Minshew's the two.

2131
01:33:35,160 --> 01:33:37,599
Speaker 5: Here's my theory. Yeah, this is a theory.

2132
01:33:37,600 --> 01:33:40,360
Speaker 6: I'm not an insider and this is not a reported

2133
01:33:41,400 --> 01:33:45,200
Speaker 6: a piece of thought for me, but this is my theory.

2134
01:33:45,800 --> 01:33:48,519
Speaker 6: Is that they wanted if they were going to go

2135
01:33:48,640 --> 01:33:52,200
Speaker 6: after a guy who they thought was a starting caliber

2136
01:33:52,400 --> 01:33:55,800
Speaker 6: quarterback that could edge out Jacoby Brissett in their minds,

2137
01:33:55,840 --> 01:33:58,160
Speaker 6: specifically with this new staff, they were going to go for.

2138
01:33:58,240 --> 01:34:01,880
Speaker 6: Jimmy Garoppoloo does not want to leave Los Angeles. Jimmy

2139
01:34:01,880 --> 01:34:05,639
Speaker 6: Garoppolo is so happy in LA even as the backup

2140
01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:08,639
Speaker 6: after he's made all of his money, right, and uh,

2141
01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:11,760
Speaker 6: he's Michaelfleur's guy. I saw that as a match that

2142
01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:13,479
Speaker 6: could potentially happen if they were to spring.

2143
01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:15,120
Speaker 2: You're just mad you didn't get it on the match.

2144
01:34:15,280 --> 01:34:18,960
Speaker 6: No, I this this one is, this one to me

2145
01:34:19,080 --> 01:34:21,320
Speaker 6: is very legit gonna happen now.

2146
01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:25,000
Speaker 5: No, Greg, listen to the words I'm listening. I'm saying

2147
01:34:25,040 --> 01:34:27,479
Speaker 5: that it didn't work out, So you're mad, So I'll finish.

2148
01:34:27,520 --> 01:34:30,920
Speaker 6: I'll finish the thought. So he they did, they didn't

2149
01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:32,600
Speaker 6: get him. He wants to stay in Los Angeles. My

2150
01:34:32,680 --> 01:34:34,439
Speaker 6: theory is that they're like, Okay, we didn't get the

2151
01:34:34,439 --> 01:34:36,479
Speaker 6: guy that was going to be our bridge, that we

2152
01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:37,839
Speaker 6: that would have edged out Jacoby.

2153
01:34:37,840 --> 01:34:39,080
Speaker 5: So now we're going with Jacoby in.

2154
01:34:39,080 --> 01:34:41,559
Speaker 1: A backup money talks though, and he's making more money

2155
01:34:41,600 --> 01:34:45,000
Speaker 1: than Jacoby's so I mean, you can't do that.

2156
01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:46,920
Speaker 2: It's tough. It does feel that I feel.

2157
01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:47,040
Speaker 4: No.

2158
01:34:47,439 --> 01:34:50,479
Speaker 6: I'll outline all of that for any curious listeners later

2159
01:34:50,520 --> 01:34:53,000
Speaker 6: who missed it, because I Greg Rosenthal's voice in the

2160
01:34:53,040 --> 01:34:55,040
Speaker 6: middle of a seven I got it.

2161
01:34:55,120 --> 01:34:59,240
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's unfortunate. Jimmy loves La so much.

2162
01:34:59,280 --> 01:35:02,480
Speaker 1: Because he he burned you. You needed that for the matchmaker.

2163
01:35:02,560 --> 01:35:05,400
Speaker 3: They got a draft quarterback then, I mean, I'm kind

2164
01:35:05,400 --> 01:35:08,800
Speaker 3: of like, you cannot. You cannot, as a new head

2165
01:35:08,840 --> 01:35:11,519
Speaker 3: coach say this is the freaking plan.

2166
01:35:11,640 --> 01:35:14,040
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't think teams tank in the NFL.

2167
01:35:14,439 --> 01:35:15,400
Speaker 5: I don't think it's a bridge.

2168
01:35:15,400 --> 01:35:17,880
Speaker 1: I don't think team's tank in the NFL. But I

2169
01:35:17,920 --> 01:35:21,000
Speaker 1: think they're aware that next year's class is good. Now

2170
01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:23,519
Speaker 1: they did spend some money, Isaac sayamalu is.

2171
01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:25,599
Speaker 4: Well, what you had to do that? That's a nice pickup.

2172
01:35:25,680 --> 01:35:28,599
Speaker 1: Three years, thirty one million dollars. Kendrick Bourne, who I mentioned,

2173
01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:31,000
Speaker 1: was with Michael Fluer in San Francisco at one point.

2174
01:35:31,360 --> 01:35:32,479
Speaker 1: Like they're adding some people.

2175
01:35:32,479 --> 01:35:34,720
Speaker 6: But I just don't think that Michaelafler is going to

2176
01:35:34,760 --> 01:35:37,200
Speaker 6: force the quarterback position. I just think he's gonna he's

2177
01:35:37,240 --> 01:35:39,080
Speaker 6: going to be more patient. If it's not the guy

2178
01:35:39,200 --> 01:35:41,240
Speaker 6: he wants, then they're just gonna bridge it.

2179
01:35:41,560 --> 01:35:42,400
Speaker 2: I've seen them.

2180
01:35:42,479 --> 01:35:44,960
Speaker 1: I just I love Carnold's coaches who tried to be

2181
01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:49,280
Speaker 1: pacient last one year. Monteric Brown is returning to the

2182
01:35:49,360 --> 01:35:53,120
Speaker 1: Jaguars three years for thirty three million dollars. Really nice

2183
01:35:53,360 --> 01:35:55,640
Speaker 1: re signing. He obviously had a market to get that

2184
01:35:55,720 --> 01:35:58,519
Speaker 1: kind of deal. Eric Stokes went to the Raiders three

2185
01:35:58,600 --> 01:36:01,559
Speaker 1: years for thirty million dollars twenty million guaranteed.

2186
01:36:01,640 --> 01:36:03,320
Speaker 2: Kind of had a big comeback season. Man.

2187
01:36:03,360 --> 01:36:05,400
Speaker 1: I forgot to mention that earlier, but that was part

2188
01:36:05,400 --> 01:36:09,760
Speaker 1: of the whole Raiders UH spending spree. Eric Wilson is

2189
01:36:09,840 --> 01:36:12,840
Speaker 1: back with the Vikings three years, twenty two million dollars,

2190
01:36:12,880 --> 01:36:16,400
Speaker 1: twelve million dollars guaranteed. Both him and Justin Strenad kind

2191
01:36:16,400 --> 01:36:19,080
Speaker 1: of set the market of these surprising kind of rush

2192
01:36:19,160 --> 01:36:22,439
Speaker 1: linebackers early. So a nice deal late in his career

2193
01:36:22,680 --> 01:36:25,280
Speaker 1: for one of Brian Flores's favorites. And then to get

2194
01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:27,840
Speaker 1: to the Broncos. They didn't sign Algier. I would have

2195
01:36:27,920 --> 01:36:31,200
Speaker 1: rather had Algier than JK. Dobbins. They do bring back JK. Dobbins,

2196
01:36:31,360 --> 01:36:33,960
Speaker 1: They bring back Sam Ellinger. Maybe they're going to trade

2197
01:36:34,120 --> 01:36:36,519
Speaker 1: Jarrett Stidham. That's why I mentioned that, you know, bring

2198
01:36:36,560 --> 01:36:39,519
Speaker 1: back to Ellinger and maybe Stidham or Jacob Maybe Jacoby

2199
01:36:39,560 --> 01:36:42,439
Speaker 1: Brisset's a candidate for Frank Raike And in New York,

2200
01:36:42,479 --> 01:36:46,680
Speaker 1: Gino Smith is reportedly a candidate. That's one open quarterback job. UH,

2201
01:36:46,880 --> 01:36:50,200
Speaker 1: and then they cut Drake Greenlaw while re signing Alex Single.

2202
01:36:50,320 --> 01:36:52,400
Speaker 3: That's a that's an interesting one because I say it's

2203
01:36:52,479 --> 01:36:54,200
Speaker 3: edge because green Law, we know how how good he

2204
01:36:54,280 --> 01:36:55,840
Speaker 3: could be. I think he's either going to be back

2205
01:36:55,840 --> 01:36:58,680
Speaker 3: in San Francisco next to Fred Warner or down in

2206
01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:03,120
Speaker 3: Tennessee with Robert Salad because Greenlaw what healthy, very good player.

2207
01:37:03,160 --> 01:37:05,160
Speaker 3: It just did not work in the Vanciosa system. And

2208
01:37:05,200 --> 01:37:07,719
Speaker 3: plus he was injured most of the time in Denver.

2209
01:37:07,800 --> 01:37:09,920
Speaker 3: But that's a dude. If he gets back next to

2210
01:37:09,960 --> 01:37:10,960
Speaker 3: Fred Warner.

2211
01:37:11,640 --> 01:37:13,479
Speaker 2: Just a health thing, I think. I think you're right.

2212
01:37:13,520 --> 01:37:15,960
Speaker 1: The fact that the forty nine ers last year, you know,

2213
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:17,400
Speaker 1: gave up on him a little bit too.

2214
01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:19,360
Speaker 4: Is a little couldn't say healthy squads.

2215
01:37:21,520 --> 01:37:24,639
Speaker 6: Wow, I sala is really bringing back all of the

2216
01:37:25,080 --> 01:37:25,920
Speaker 6: his like core guy.

2217
01:37:26,040 --> 01:37:27,799
Speaker 2: If it happens his like soul.

2218
01:37:27,640 --> 01:37:29,760
Speaker 5: Guys is his heart.

2219
01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:30,720
Speaker 2: That's heartbeat guy.

2220
01:37:30,760 --> 01:37:32,519
Speaker 1: I think that's that's Tricky's got to get to that

2221
01:37:32,560 --> 01:37:34,920
Speaker 1: new stadium, got to have You gotta have more make

2222
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:37,040
Speaker 1: it to there, Like you want to have someone that

2223
01:37:37,080 --> 01:37:38,960
Speaker 1: has contacts throughout the league, but you also have to

2224
01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:42,559
Speaker 1: have more ideas than just like bringing back bringing back

2225
01:37:42,640 --> 01:37:44,720
Speaker 1: your old guy because it didn't It didn't work for

2226
01:37:44,800 --> 01:37:45,360
Speaker 1: him last time.

2227
01:37:45,360 --> 01:37:47,360
Speaker 2: I think we got to the end here. There were

2228
01:37:47,360 --> 01:37:48,439
Speaker 2: a couple of other minor things.

2229
01:37:48,479 --> 01:37:52,120
Speaker 6: You don't want to your guy, your your forever guy

2230
01:37:52,200 --> 01:37:53,400
Speaker 6: that you'll forever believe in.

2231
01:37:53,600 --> 01:37:54,759
Speaker 5: Jake Browning, You don't want.

2232
01:37:54,640 --> 01:37:56,479
Speaker 2: Jake Browning was non tendered.

2233
01:37:56,560 --> 01:37:57,160
Speaker 4: How about that?

2234
01:37:58,439 --> 01:38:01,200
Speaker 1: There has been over two point three billion dollars, by

2235
01:38:01,240 --> 01:38:03,280
Speaker 1: the way, in total contracts given out.

2236
01:38:03,920 --> 01:38:05,960
Speaker 5: It's the regular season that is.

2237
01:38:06,040 --> 01:38:09,639
Speaker 1: According to NFL research, the Raiders have spent the most

2238
01:38:09,680 --> 01:38:12,479
Speaker 1: amount of money two hundred and eighty one point five

2239
01:38:12,560 --> 01:38:13,200
Speaker 1: million dollars.

2240
01:38:13,439 --> 01:38:16,160
Speaker 3: Remember that's in totality, that's the totality. Half of that

2241
01:38:16,680 --> 01:38:17,679
Speaker 3: will never be spent.

2242
01:38:17,880 --> 01:38:21,559
Speaker 1: Exactly nine players so far have signed a contract with

2243
01:38:21,760 --> 01:38:26,639
Speaker 1: over twenty million dollars a year average, and then Jalen Phillips,

2244
01:38:26,680 --> 01:38:31,960
Speaker 1: Alec Pierce, Linderbaum and of all people, Awante freaking Taylor

2245
01:38:32,360 --> 01:38:35,479
Speaker 1: have all set records for the most average per year

2246
01:38:35,600 --> 01:38:38,240
Speaker 1: of a player that hits free agency. Obviously, they're not

2247
01:38:38,280 --> 01:38:40,800
Speaker 1: the highest paid players ever at the position, although in

2248
01:38:40,880 --> 01:38:43,920
Speaker 1: Linderbaum you are by by quite a bit. But the

2249
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:46,880
Speaker 1: other players, for guys that actually get to free agency,

2250
01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:48,360
Speaker 1: they've said a little bit of a record.

2251
01:38:48,520 --> 01:38:51,759
Speaker 6: How was the first day of the official regular season

2252
01:38:51,800 --> 01:38:52,000
Speaker 6: for you?

2253
01:38:52,040 --> 01:38:53,599

01:38:53,960 --> 01:38:57,120
Speaker 1: I like to call it greg miss you know, I

2255
01:38:57,160 --> 01:38:59,280
Speaker 1: feel like the thing is it's not over. Even as

2256
01:38:59,320 --> 01:39:02,280
Speaker 1: we were taping, there were more moves like Rico Daubele

2257
01:39:02,360 --> 01:39:03,000
Speaker 1: to the Steelers.

2258
01:39:03,240 --> 01:39:04,040
Speaker 2: I love that spot.

2259
01:39:04,160 --> 01:39:05,960
Speaker 4: I love that. I love the ric O'Donnell do the

2260
01:39:05,960 --> 01:39:07,439
Speaker 4: Seeler they lose gain will to get Rico?

2261
01:39:07,520 --> 01:39:10,719
Speaker 5: Do we have a huge uh strange to the Chargers?

01:39:10,760 --> 01:39:12,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, who's helping us out?

2263
01:39:12,200 --> 01:39:16,160
Speaker 1: On NFL channel and on YouTube and they're like, can

2264
01:39:16,160 --> 01:39:18,600
Speaker 1: we get out of here? Quincy Williams is going to

2265
01:39:18,640 --> 01:39:22,840
Speaker 1: the Browns for two years and seventeen million dollars. Don't

2266
01:39:22,880 --> 01:39:25,960
Speaker 1: really love that, especially surprised by the way he didn't

2267
01:39:25,960 --> 01:39:26,439
Speaker 1: go back with that.

2268
01:39:26,720 --> 01:39:29,120
Speaker 3: Can I say one thing about the Bronch your time

2269
01:39:29,200 --> 01:39:31,360
Speaker 3: about the NFL? It's distribing me create How the hell

2270
01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:33,240
Speaker 3: is Jim Schwartz not employed by somebody?

2271
01:39:33,479 --> 01:39:36,760
Speaker 5: Ooh, that's probably Jim Schwartz's question too.

2272
01:39:38,160 --> 01:39:41,200
Speaker 1: I just don't get that, like maybe he doesn't want

2273
01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:43,400
Speaker 1: to be a coordinator out there, or just was the timing.

2274
01:39:43,439 --> 01:39:44,160
Speaker 2: It's a good question.

2275
01:39:44,400 --> 01:39:47,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's you know, I'm hoping it's it's voluntary on his.

2276
01:39:47,360 --> 01:39:50,519
Speaker 1: Call, one of the best defensive coordinators in the league.

2277
01:39:50,520 --> 01:39:52,960
Speaker 1: Maybe he'll be added at some point. Okay, so once

2278

2282
01:40:12,360 --> 01:40:14,280
Speaker 3: I got a topic for you, the most nervous incumbent

2283
01:40:14,400 --> 01:40:15,920
Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy or Michael Pennix.
