- 0:18Speaker 2: No, it's it's fantastic, you know to watch because look,
- 0:24Speaker 2: there's two things that can happen.
- 0:25Speaker 3: You know, you're either deflecting it, but.
- 0:28Speaker 2: The ability to be able to catch it. You know,
- 0:33Speaker 2: as a defensive back, it's tough if you don't have
- 0:36Speaker 2: decent enough hands because they'll just throw at you.
- 0:38Speaker 3: So it's a good play.
- 0:42Speaker 4: Back out here live at Broncos Park Moser, Lombardi and Caine.
- 0:45Speaker 4: Rajvilling in for Kaner alongside Vic Lombardi and Mark Moser
- 0:49Speaker 4: on a chili day out here at the Valley. All
- 0:53Speaker 4: of our coverage this year brought to you by our
- 0:54Speaker 4: friends at Ramos. Lash On Peyton talking about the defense
- 0:58Speaker 4: which had a resurg today yesterday.
- 1:01Speaker 5: He's talking about a play that was made late in
- 1:03Speaker 5: practice yesterday when they were doing one versus one and
- 1:07Speaker 5: they're going deep ball down the left sideline, and they
- 1:10Speaker 5: did it three straight times. The first time it was
- 1:13Speaker 5: an incompletion. The second time, Riley Moss was step first
- 1:17Speaker 5: step with Corland Sutton and Riley stole the ball. It
- 1:19Speaker 5: was a great interception, one of the best I've seen
- 1:21Speaker 5: in camp so far. And then the third play, I
- 1:24Speaker 5: mean three in a row. Pat Bryant actually juggled the
- 1:27Speaker 5: ball away from Riley Moss and took it. So it's
- 1:29Speaker 5: three great plays down the left sideline. I think they
- 1:32Speaker 5: were working on the left sideline.
- 1:34Speaker 4: That play was started by allowing the defense to jump
- 1:38Speaker 4: off side. I think it's totally fine throwing that ball up.
- 1:41Speaker 4: It would have been called back regardless. Bow ends up
- 1:44Speaker 4: going with a hard count. I think it was Nick
- 1:45Speaker 4: Benito that he got to jump off side. I don't
- 1:47Speaker 4: exactly know what player that was, but Sean went into
- 1:51Speaker 4: talking about that's the next step that this defense has
- 1:54Speaker 4: to take. That was the calling card of the twenty
- 1:56Speaker 4: fifteen defense was on any play there could have been
- 2:00Speaker 4: a turnover. Wasn't necessarily just von Miller coming around the
- 2:03Speaker 4: edge with the stripsack. It was the ability to force
- 2:06Speaker 4: interceptions and we've heard Talano who finally talk about it
- 2:10Speaker 4: basically the entire Offseason's what I ended the appetizer hour
- 2:14Speaker 4: talking about was they got their hands on the ball
- 2:17Speaker 4: too many times last year to have just fourteen takeaways
- 2:21Speaker 4: that would have been tied for fourth worst in the
- 2:23Speaker 4: league by defense.
- 2:25Speaker 3: You know, Sean Payton doesn't always say a ton in
- 2:28Speaker 3: these news conferences. He does what every other day something
- 2:32Speaker 3: like that every day, but every other day that kind
- 2:33Speaker 3: of thing. He doesn't always say a ton. But I
- 2:35Speaker 3: thought it was kind of interesting listening to him yesterday
- 2:38Speaker 3: discuss you know, how you get turnovers and what they teach,
- 2:41Speaker 3: and he started talking about Lovey Smith and he started
- 2:44Speaker 3: talking about some defenses from the late nineties and how
- 2:46Speaker 3: they really were aggressive and going for the ball and
- 2:50Speaker 3: how he said and if you watched them, you could
- 2:53Speaker 3: see that it's taught on how to go get the football,
- 2:56Speaker 3: what to do to get the football, and that sort
- 2:58Speaker 3: of thing. So it looks like it's gonna be more
- 3:00Speaker 3: of an emphasis this year for the Denver Broncos in
- 3:02Speaker 3: their defense, which is you can defying defense. Man.
- 3:05Speaker 5: You can teach it all you want, you can emphasize
- 3:08Speaker 5: is all you want. You gotta have the players to
- 3:09Speaker 5: pull it off. I mean, if you can't put pressure
- 3:11Speaker 5: on the quarterback and then have the dbs that can
- 3:13Speaker 5: catch the ball, I mean, hey, I'll say one thing
- 3:16Speaker 5: about Hufunga. He had a great season. Can't catch the ball,
- 3:19Speaker 5: can't catch the ball, and that he might. I think
- 3:22Speaker 5: he had four or five that were right in his
- 3:24Speaker 5: arms last year. So you can try to coach it.
- 3:28Speaker 5: But either you have that or you don't.
- 3:30Speaker 4: He was talking about those Lovey Smith defenses in the
- 3:33Speaker 4: mid two thousands with Chicago, and I went into Pena
- 3:38Speaker 4: Tillman and his ability to punch the ball out. It
- 3:39Speaker 4: doesn't necessarily have to be interceptions. It is just forcing
- 3:43Speaker 4: turnovers any which way. Like the fact that they went
- 3:46Speaker 4: fourteen and three last year and they went eleven to
- 3:48Speaker 4: two and one score games with being a negative turnover
- 3:51Speaker 4: differential team is it's a miracle.
- 3:54Speaker 3: We talk about the anomaly of it. That's the anomaly.
- 3:56Speaker 3: It's an absolute miracle. I mean, I think we're gonna
- 3:59Speaker 3: look bat some time. You know, people like their stats,
- 4:02Speaker 3: and these stats prove this, and stats prove that in
- 4:04Speaker 3: stat's stat I think we're gonna look back on that
- 4:08Speaker 3: season and go, geez, Louise, what a statistical anomaly type
- 4:13Speaker 3: of year in every kind of way, Because if you
- 4:15Speaker 3: don't win the turnover battle RAJ on any given week,
- 4:18Speaker 3: you're gonna lose the game. If you don't win the
- 4:20Speaker 3: turnover battle in the season, you're not gonna be a
- 4:23Speaker 3: high quality, high caliber, winning football team. Well, the Denver
- 4:27Speaker 3: Broncos proved all that wrong last year, but that was
- 4:29Speaker 3: an anomaly.
- 4:29Speaker 5: You talk about anomaly. This Colorado weather is something else.
- 4:33Speaker 5: Yesterday it was I mean suffocating here. It was so hot.
- 4:38Speaker 5: The day later, I'm wearing a jacket and Roger wishes
- 4:43Speaker 5: he had sweatpants.
- 4:45Speaker 4: Guys, you can't see below the table right now, do
- 4:47Speaker 4: you see? I got goosebumps. You feel my leg right now?
- 4:50Speaker 4: It's chill, dude, it's chill out here.
- 4:51Speaker 5: I got like stipple grip on my legs right now.
- 4:53Speaker 5: This is ridiculous. This is also preferable. You'd rather have
- 4:57Speaker 5: this than yesterday.
- 4:58Speaker 4: Yesterday was heavy, Oh yeah, with the with the smoke,
- 5:01Speaker 4: it was brutal. Yeah, it's funny. You would you would
- 5:03Speaker 4: have rather today have been like the heavily padded practice.
- 5:07Speaker 5: Correct, Well, sure, but you know it is. You know
- 5:09Speaker 5: you can't you can't expect to change that quickly.
- 5:12Speaker 3: Only in Colorado.
- 5:13Speaker 5: I was interviewing Zach Allen after practice saw that, and
- 5:16Speaker 5: the smoke was so intense from all the wildfires. We
- 5:19Speaker 5: had to stop the interview twice because he started coughing,
- 5:23Speaker 5: and you know, you're done with practice. You're trying to
- 5:25Speaker 5: breathe hard and trying to catch your breath, and the
- 5:27Speaker 5: dude was losing as I thought he was moser for
- 5:30Speaker 5: a second, having one of those allergic reactions. Yeah, you
- 5:32Speaker 5: start coughing it up. Yeah, I'll tell you to just
- 5:34Speaker 5: leave the studio. It's the drip.
- 5:36Speaker 3: It's the drip that gets going with the But that's
- 5:38Speaker 3: that's your smoke getting in the back of your throat
- 5:40Speaker 3: and killing you.
- 5:40Speaker 4: I wonder if that's the reason, or at least part
- 5:42Speaker 4: of the reason why yesterday's practice was so fast, Like
- 5:46Speaker 4: that thing was over in fifty minutes great, maybe an
- 5:49Speaker 4: hour at the very most, in and out.
- 5:51Speaker 3: It wasn't as.
- 5:53Speaker 4: Heavy hitting for a fully padded practice as we expected,
- 5:56Speaker 4: but it did feel like it was part of this
- 5:58Speaker 4: ramp up period that they're just getting ready for what
- 6:01Speaker 4: feels to be the marquee day of practice, and that
- 6:04Speaker 4: would be tomorrow, when they expect to have two and
- 6:06Speaker 4: a half hours back in full pads, and it's gonna
- 6:09Speaker 4: be the last full day before Sean Payton gets ready
- 6:12Speaker 4: to leave for Canton. He's gone on Saturday. We expect
- 6:14Speaker 4: Vans Joseph to kind of run that practice. But Wednesday
- 6:18Speaker 4: will be the day that if if you didn't feel
- 6:20Speaker 4: like he got enough football yesterday, it's gonna be Wednesday.
- 6:23Speaker 4: A lot of walkthrough today. I'm hoping here to get
- 6:25Speaker 4: some one on ones.
- 6:26Speaker 3: Right.
- 6:26Speaker 4: We saw one on the ones between pass rushers and
- 6:28Speaker 4: offensive lineman yesterday. I want to see some one on
- 6:30Speaker 4: ones between Jalen Wattle and Courtland Sutton and Waddle and
- 6:34Speaker 4: Riley Moss today.
- 6:35Speaker 5: You know, they were wearing pads yesterday, but there was
- 6:37Speaker 5: no hitting. They're not even hard this camp. There's nothing,
- 6:40Speaker 5: there's nothing fissile. They don't get physical in this camp.
- 6:43Speaker 5: They just haven't seen it in a long time.
- 6:44Speaker 3: So it's funny. We were how many years ago was
- 6:47Speaker 3: it when the lines were on hard knocks. It's a
- 6:49Speaker 3: couple of years ago, okay, yeah, And it was probably
- 6:53Speaker 3: like three years ago, maybe four something like that. But
- 6:55Speaker 3: I remember they weren't hitting then either. There's just no
- 6:57Speaker 3: hitting in modern camps except the Detroit Lions on day
- 7:01Speaker 3: number one of their training camparage obviously, and then the
- 7:04Speaker 3: you know, the the episode comes out later. I'm like, golly,
- 7:07Speaker 3: there was more hitting in the first three minutes of
- 7:10Speaker 3: hard knocks than I've seen all camp for the Denver Broncos.
- 7:14Speaker 3: And I understand it. It's the modern NFL. The probably
- 7:17Speaker 3: the price of players is exorbitant. They're assets. You don't
- 7:22Speaker 3: even want to chance or risk anybody getting anything torn
- 7:26Speaker 3: or broken on a tackle in practice. But you know,
- 7:29Speaker 3: you got to start ramping up somehow, And yeah, I
- 7:31Speaker 3: guess when you're wearing the pads, you get that mentality
- 7:34Speaker 3: and you start to to move it just a little
- 7:35Speaker 3: bit and guys will tap each other, they'll they'll they'll
- 7:37Speaker 3: bump into each other, but there's no real hitting. There
- 7:39Speaker 3: was a little bit yesterday. So JK.
- 7:41Speaker 4: Dobbins got shut from behind yesterday on Luke first eleven
- 7:44Speaker 4: eleven pros and.
- 7:44Speaker 5: Luke Wattenberg got banged up the center holding his right arm. Yeah,
- 7:48Speaker 5: he got banged up a little bit in one of
- 7:50Speaker 5: those sessions. And I don't know where he sits. I
- 7:53Speaker 5: think uh Coach Payton yesterday said he's gonna be fine,
- 7:56Speaker 5: just a little banged up. So those are the things
- 7:58Speaker 5: that happening camp. You fallow the wrong way. It's gonna happen.
- 8:01Speaker 4: They weren't concerned about Luke Wattenberg league leaving practice yesterday.
- 8:06Speaker 4: But if you're gonna, honestly, if this team is going
- 8:08Speaker 4: to sustain an injury anywhere, it's either offensive line or
- 8:13Speaker 4: to the defensive backfield, those are where you are the deepest,
- 8:17Speaker 4: one of the deepest teams in the NFL in terms
- 8:19Speaker 4: of that defensive backfield. Sean Payton would also go on
- 8:22Speaker 4: to talk about Jade Baron and dispel the rumors that
- 8:25Speaker 4: they have moved him to safety or that they are
- 8:28Speaker 4: moving him.
- 8:28Speaker 3: To see sity dime and nickel corner. That's what he is.
- 8:31Speaker 4: I think they're playing the long game with him. Like
- 8:33Speaker 4: right now, utilizing the number twenty pick on Jade Baron
- 8:36Speaker 4: in twenty twenty five looks like a disaster because well,
- 8:39Speaker 4: he doesn't play enough as a premium draft pick. But
- 8:43Speaker 4: I went into their multi year cap table. Man, they
- 8:47Speaker 4: don't have any space next year. It's the reason why
- 8:49Speaker 4: they're holding thirty million dollars right now and trying to
- 8:51Speaker 4: roll it over into next season. I don't think that
- 8:55Speaker 4: they can afford Riley Moss and I firmly believe that
- 8:58Speaker 4: going into year three of Jade Baron. He will be
- 9:00Speaker 4: the opposite corner on the other side of the field.
- 9:02Speaker 3: For well, well, we'll see. He's got to earn it.
- 9:05Speaker 3: I mean, we'll see. And maybe they're holding him in
- 9:07Speaker 3: reserve and they're just grooming him and moving him along.
- 9:10Speaker 3: That's fine. I don't know. To me, if he could play,
- 9:14Speaker 3: golly man, I guess I'd like to to see him
- 9:18Speaker 3: play and then move an asset to get more assets
- 9:20Speaker 3: where you think you need them, to be honest with you,
- 9:22Speaker 3: But either way, I mean, we'll see exactly you know
- 9:25Speaker 3: how good this kid can be.
- 9:27Speaker 4: The only way to the only way to move that
- 9:29Speaker 4: asset though, would be like you trade Riley Mawson. You
- 9:32Speaker 4: don't have him this year, right, it's a super if
- 9:35Speaker 4: that was like Super Bowl.
- 9:36Speaker 3: Or bust, would you trade talent? You can't.
- 9:39Speaker 4: I think you have to walk Riley up until his
- 9:41Speaker 4: free agency season and go thank you for your time.
- 9:43Speaker 4: We appreciate you, but we can't afford to pay you
- 9:45Speaker 4: fifteen to twenty million dollars.
- 9:47Speaker 3: Not only that, but you've got the quarterback on the
- 9:48Speaker 3: horizon too, and you've got a plan for that. You're
- 9:51Speaker 3: going to have to plan for the quarterback too. Just
- 9:53Speaker 3: the way it's sixty million dollars, call it. I oh,
- 9:58Speaker 3: we're gonna be sitting here in four years and goo hey,
- 10:00Speaker 3: a guy just signed for seventy one million bucks per year. Works.
- 10:04Speaker 3: That's insanity, presum b. John Robinson just did the highest
- 10:07Speaker 3: paid running back in the NFL.
- 10:08Speaker 5: Yeah, I saw that three years, seventy five million dollars.
- 10:13Speaker 3: And that's for a position that's not supposed to be that.
- 10:17Speaker 5: I mean, you're not supposed to have big money at
- 10:20Speaker 5: that position anymore. So where's the value at running back? Well,
- 10:23Speaker 5: Jon Robinson showed you value. That's because he's more than.
- 10:26Speaker 3: A running back. He can do a little bit of everything.
- 10:28Speaker 4: Right, He's more of the I wouldn't say he is
- 10:30Speaker 4: a Christian McCaffrey, but he's in that Christian McCaffrey role
- 10:33Speaker 4: in that mold, rather than the Derrick Henry's of the
- 10:36Speaker 4: world where you're getting a whole bunch of touches out
- 10:39Speaker 4: of the backfield in terms of just toting the rock.
- 10:42Speaker 4: I think that's where the value is for running back
- 10:44Speaker 4: is if you're one of the top five dudes in
- 10:45Speaker 4: the league, you're getting paid like crazy.
- 10:47Speaker 3: He had fifteen hundred yards essentially last year carrying the football,
- 10:50Speaker 3: and then of course he can he can catch the
- 10:52Speaker 3: football too. I'm thinking back to Derrick Henry in twenty twenty.
- 10:55Speaker 3: He had over two thousand yards, the last guy to
- 10:58Speaker 3: do it. When is the next two thousand yard season
- 11:01Speaker 3: out of a running back or are we going to
- 11:03Speaker 3: see those anymore? With the deployment of two three backs
- 11:07Speaker 3: per year.
- 11:07Speaker 5: It's not gonna be here because it is a stable
- 11:09Speaker 5: of backs here. So it's gonna have to be one
- 11:12Speaker 5: of those places that.
- 11:13Speaker 3: And then that guy's has to be That guy has
- 11:15Speaker 3: to be really talented too, and you gotta give him
- 11:17Speaker 3: the rock all the time. Talented and durable. Heavy on
- 11:20Speaker 3: the dur right, heavy on the durability.
- 11:22Speaker 4: Fifty one million dollars guaranteed for Beejeon Robinson. It doesn't
- 11:26Speaker 4: surpass what Jeremiah Love has guaranteed at fifty three million dollars.
- 11:30Speaker 5: That's a rookie which is carried in insanity that Jeremiah
- 11:34Speaker 5: Love is guaranteed fifty three million dollars.
- 11:37Speaker 3: And has it.
- 11:37Speaker 4: He's Jeremiah Love isn't even running back number one in
- 11:41Speaker 4: Arizona camp right now.
- 11:42Speaker 3: They're given that to Tyler Algier. Yeah, he'll be there.
- 11:45Speaker 3: That's pretty crazy. Hey be the guy. I will say
- 11:47Speaker 3: this though, Uh, if that's what Bijon got, what is
- 11:52Speaker 3: Jamiir Gibbs gonna get? Because he's he has a hold
- 11:56Speaker 3: in right now. Holdout is old school raj hold out
- 12:00Speaker 3: where you're you know, you're you're Dak Prescott and you're
- 12:03Speaker 3: hanging out in can coon until you get a brand
- 12:05Speaker 3: new deal. Or you're who's that running back the Cowboys
- 12:08Speaker 3: running back that uh, the little running back that held
- 12:11Speaker 3: out forever Ezekiel Elliott. Yes can't, you don't in my mind.
- 12:20Speaker 3: But but the hold out where you're someplace else and
- 12:23Speaker 3: working out on your own is old school. Now it's
- 12:26Speaker 3: hold in. You're at camp so you don't get fine,
- 12:28Speaker 3: but you ain't stepping foot on the field, just walking
- 12:30Speaker 3: around and hitting the gym. You're not so Jamir Gibbs
- 12:34Speaker 3: right now, Bijeon was a hold in. This Jamir Gibbs
- 12:38Speaker 3: situation is also a hold in situation. He's got to
- 12:41Speaker 3: be thinking to himself, I'm probably not gonna get Bijon money,
- 12:44Speaker 3: but I can get close and that's a lot of money.
- 12:47Speaker 4: Taking into account the money situation here, and how much
- 12:51Speaker 4: of your cap you're spending on a running back. Do
- 12:54Speaker 4: you guys find yourselves missing wanting a running back of
- 12:59Speaker 4: Bijon Robinson's caliber, of Jeremiah Love's caliber. Con everybody wants
- 13:04Speaker 4: well considering what comes with it in terms of money,
- 13:07Speaker 4: I mean.
- 13:07Speaker 5: If you have production at that position, it's gonna be
- 13:11Speaker 5: it's gonna be expensive.
- 13:12Speaker 3: That's any position.
- 13:13Speaker 5: If you have a tight end that can do a lot,
- 13:15Speaker 5: it's going to be expensive. It just it depends on
- 13:17Speaker 5: where you put your money on your team. So of
- 13:20Speaker 5: course you would want that. That means you have a
- 13:22Speaker 5: good player at that position. Who wouldn't want a good
- 13:24Speaker 5: player at that position.
- 13:25Speaker 4: At twenty million dollars against the cap?
- 13:27Speaker 3: Well, I mean, but you want fifty.
- 13:30Speaker 4: Dollars a position that gets injured off.
- 13:32Speaker 3: Kay, And that's where you and I agree.
- 13:33Speaker 5: I think it's a risk at that position because if
- 13:35Speaker 5: he goes down, then then what Then you're screwed. So
- 13:38Speaker 5: maybe the approach is by committee the way the Broncos
- 13:41Speaker 5: are handling that.
- 13:41Speaker 3: Oh you know what, hey, by the way, Squon ran
- 13:45Speaker 3: for somebody's reminding me he ran for two thousand just
- 13:47Speaker 3: a couple of years ago. Saquon did remember in an
- 13:50Speaker 3: Eagles uniform? First, you're in an Eagles uniform, right, I
- 13:54Speaker 3: just can't take you seriously wearing sunglasses.
- 13:57Speaker 4: You really got to take him off.
- 13:59Speaker 3: This is not if the sun was out. If they say.
- 14:06Speaker 4: Beaming at us, now, this is like it literally can't
- 14:08Speaker 4: happen scientifically. But if it was beaming at us, I
- 14:12Speaker 4: would be wearing sunglasses with you. But it's sixty seven
- 14:16Speaker 4: degrees and partly cloudy out there ain't no sun.
- 14:18Speaker 3: He just threw his ray bans. Are those prescription? They are? Oh? No?
- 14:23Speaker 3: Are these progressives? Yeah? I wear them so I can see,
- 14:26Speaker 3: not because I'm trying to look fancy when you go in.
- 14:29Speaker 3: Otherwise otherwise I can't. I can't thank you. I mean
- 14:33Speaker 3: I can. I can go to the car and get
- 14:34Speaker 3: my reading glasses. But otherwise, no, those are prescription. It's allowed.
- 14:39Speaker 3: I can't wear them. Otherwise I can't. I'm not quite there.
- 14:41Speaker 3: So here's here's that with these out, I can't read.
- 14:44Speaker 3: I know this sounds crazy. I can. I know that's
- 14:47Speaker 3: a Coca Cola symbol, and I know it's his ticketmaster
- 14:49Speaker 3: over there, but I can't read. You see what's his
- 14:52Speaker 3: Broncos park. Right here, I see a Ford thing. I
- 14:54Speaker 3: can't read anything else besides that. Can you read this?
- 14:57Speaker 3: I can't? Yeah, I read that. Well, now these on
- 15:00Speaker 3: I can see what it says. So much more spirit
- 15:03Speaker 3: for you guys, his part, you know, powered by common spirit.
- 15:06Speaker 3: I can see, I can see all that. It's violent.
- 15:09Speaker 3: He just threw him.
- 15:09Speaker 4: We're gonna have Drew Goodman on at eight forty five,
- 15:12Speaker 4: Adam Schefter at nine to twenty. MLB's trade deadline is
- 15:15Speaker 4: coming gone. The Rockies, well, they largely sat out. Was
- 15:19Speaker 4: that a swing and a miss? We'll tell you about it.
- 15:21Speaker 3: Moves, we'll talk about it next. How emotional was it
- 15:24Speaker 3: talking to Kyle today? Yeah, that one's a tough one.
- 15:29Speaker 6: You know I met I met Kyle when he was
- 15:31Speaker 6: drafting twenty fourteen, so it's been.
- 15:34Speaker 3: Twelve thirteen years together.
- 15:37Speaker 6: I just always see him as my oldest brother, you know,
- 15:41Speaker 6: like my gringo brother. And we've been together for twelve years.
- 15:46Speaker 6: Good bad season. We debut back to back days. That
- 15:51Speaker 6: is crazy too. That's nice, you know, Like, what's super emotional?
- 15:58Speaker 6: I's all him yesterday. If I can and trade tomorrow.
- 16:01Speaker 6: That was a good game to remember. I'm, you know,
- 16:06Speaker 6: like he's a spatial He's my dog.
- 16:09Speaker 4: Major League Baseball's trade deadline has come and gone. Yes,
- 16:13Speaker 4: there is a pending and ensuing lockout next year. As
- 16:17Speaker 4: the Dodgers make the biggest splash. They get Trek Scuball
- 16:21Speaker 4: from the Detroit Tigers, but Antonio Senzateela, Victor Vodnik, Brenton Doyle,
- 16:26Speaker 4: and Seth Halverson sent away via trade. Mickey Moniac stays,
- 16:31Speaker 4: Hunter Goodman stays, even though there was a massive catcher
- 16:34Speaker 4: deal made between Baltimore and the Boston Red Sox, with
- 16:37Speaker 4: former number one overall pick Adleie Rutchman going to the Bosox,
- 16:41Speaker 4: to the hottest team in Major League Baseball.
- 16:44Speaker 3: And my question to you guys, did the Rockies do enough?
- 16:47Speaker 5: Well, first of all, you two are my gringo brothers
- 16:49Speaker 5: as well. I love that line. They did what they did. Yeah,
- 16:55Speaker 5: you mentioned they dipped their toe. I thought they dip
- 16:58Speaker 5: their entire leg in the water. They made four trades.
- 17:01Speaker 5: I mean, it's easy to say trade everybody. It's easy
- 17:04Speaker 5: to say they left a lot on the table. But
- 17:06Speaker 5: how many teams in the league had four trades yesterday?
- 17:10Speaker 3: The Rockies did?
- 17:12Speaker 5: They sent four guys. They turned four guys into eight prospects, right,
- 17:16Speaker 5: So I.
- 17:17Speaker 3: It was like the Mets, Rockies and Giants.
- 17:19Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, and I wonder we're gonna talk to
- 17:22Speaker 5: Drew Goodman. What time is Drew Goodman gonna join us?
- 17:24Speaker 3: Eight forty five? Okay?
- 17:25Speaker 5: I wondered the impending workstoppage if it had anything to
- 17:29Speaker 5: do with the quiet trade deadline.
- 17:31Speaker 3: I wonder if teams are just like, eh, screw it.
- 17:36Speaker 3: That's a great question. I don't know what. I don't
- 17:39Speaker 3: know what the mindset of these gms is, like they
- 17:41Speaker 3: don't want to. I mean, they're not gonna be paying
- 17:42Speaker 3: players anyway in the offseason, so it should be business
- 17:45Speaker 3: as usual. It should be. But these deals again, Brenton Doyle,
- 17:49Speaker 3: whom I like, I mean, the guys won.
- 17:50Speaker 5: What a couple of gold gloves, right. I thought that
- 17:53Speaker 5: was a smart move. That opens it up now for
- 17:55Speaker 5: Cole Krrig and center field. That opens it up for
- 17:57Speaker 5: some of those younger guys to make you know, listen,
- 18:00Speaker 5: if Bren Doyle could hit this year, Bren Doyle will
- 18:02Speaker 5: be a Rocky Well.
- 18:03Speaker 3: Two years ago, two years ago, Breton Doyle was a
- 18:05Speaker 3: terrific player. I mean, look, stop, Tinton, I gotta I
- 18:08Speaker 3: gotta get over in modern Moses. Modern Moses has got
- 18:11Speaker 3: to come to grips with reality. When guys now are
- 18:14Speaker 3: hitting like two sixty, two sixty five, that's hitting three hundred, Brothers,
- 18:17Speaker 3: it's pretty decent, right, And I'm like, damn, I mean
- 18:21Speaker 3: in my day, if you if you know, if you
- 18:23Speaker 3: wanted to be a good hitter at three hundred his minimum, right,
- 18:26Speaker 3: I mean, these guys are hitting three ten, three fifteen.
- 18:28Speaker 3: Some guys would dance around three thirty eight, that kind
- 18:31Speaker 3: of thing. But he hit two sixty two years ago,
- 18:33Speaker 3: and that he's gone. He went into the two thirties
- 18:35Speaker 3: last year, and this year he's hitting two fourteen. Right,
- 18:38Speaker 3: it's just above them in Doza line, I don't know
- 18:41Speaker 3: how much he weighs, but you're talking about a guy
- 18:42Speaker 3: hitting his weight, but his glove is still really really good.
- 18:46Speaker 3: So yeah, move him onto the socks it sucks, that is,
- 18:49Speaker 3: and and get some prospects or a couple prospects back
- 18:52Speaker 3: in return.
- 18:52Speaker 4: It made sense to move on from a glove first
- 18:55Speaker 4: outfielder when you have enough glove. In terms of Jake McCarthy,
- 18:59Speaker 4: who is also so top ten guy, in the league
- 19:02Speaker 4: in terms of on base percentage and has been for
- 19:04Speaker 4: the majority of the.
- 19:05Speaker 3: See he's got to play some of these kids down
- 19:06Speaker 3: the streets.
- 19:07Speaker 4: Look at how many have so much of their talent,
- 19:09Speaker 4: so much of their young talent in the organization right now,
- 19:13Speaker 4: you know, on the right side of thirty with like
- 19:16Speaker 4: McCarthy and monioc and Jordan Beck and Cole Carrig. All
- 19:20Speaker 4: of these guys are outfielders. All these guys can play
- 19:22Speaker 4: all three outfield positions. It makes sense to move on
- 19:25Speaker 4: from Brenton Doyle. But the big question was would you
- 19:28Speaker 4: move on from from Hunter Goodman, who might have been
- 19:32Speaker 4: the sexiest non pitching pros, or rather trade ship at
- 19:37Speaker 4: the deadline. The Red Sox end up getting Adlee Rushman,
- 19:41Speaker 4: but you don't jump in on the catcher market. What
- 19:43Speaker 4: they get for Rushman they got four different prospects, including
- 19:47Speaker 4: Boston's number one overall prospects.
- 19:49Speaker 5: So well, did I wonder if Boston didn't engage or
- 19:53Speaker 5: the Rockies didn't engage. Either way, they got something. They
- 19:57Speaker 5: got eight prospects for four players. Not only did they
- 19:59Speaker 5: not trade Moniac actually resign Moniac, they extended him.
- 20:03Speaker 3: To a new contract. District. I thought it was he's
- 20:05Speaker 3: in their plans. I thought it was interesting again when
- 20:08Speaker 3: they said, hey, look, it would have to be a
- 20:10Speaker 3: trade that would blow the Rockies away. Well, I don't
- 20:12Speaker 3: know what blowing the Rockies away is to move Hunter Goodman.
- 20:16Speaker 3: I'm happy that he's here. I mean, he's got thirty
- 20:18Speaker 3: three dongs. He's a reason people go to the ballpark
- 20:21Speaker 3: and watch because he could be hitting bombs underny given night,
- 20:23Speaker 3: because they seem to come in bunches. I mean, he'll
- 20:26Speaker 3: let two bombs in a game and you're going, wow,
- 20:28Speaker 3: this is great. There were a few teams that were
- 20:31Speaker 3: in on the catching market. Obviously Boston was one of them.
- 20:34Speaker 3: Tampa Bay, who they lost to yesterday, was another team
- 20:37Speaker 3: that could have added at catcher, but Tampa's not really
- 20:39Speaker 3: a team to swing really big at the deadline. The
- 20:43Speaker 3: other one is it's the New York Yankees, and they
- 20:45Speaker 3: have been. They've made a whole bunch of trades with
- 20:47Speaker 3: the Yankees in recent years. I have a feeling the
- 20:51Speaker 3: ask for Goodman probably revolved around New York's number one
- 20:57Speaker 3: prospect in George Lombard Junior, who they're calling up today,
- 21:00Speaker 3: and New York wasn't having that conversation with anyone. So
- 21:04Speaker 3: if the Rockies and Paul de Podesta were having those
- 21:07Speaker 3: conversations of like, you give us your number one prospect
- 21:10Speaker 3: or multiple top ten prospects and we will ship out
- 21:13Speaker 3: a guy with three years of team control will do it,
- 21:16Speaker 3: I just don't think the teams that they were on
- 21:18Speaker 3: the dance floor with were willing to bite on them. Yeah,
- 21:20Speaker 3: I'm sure you're right about that. And and and again, Vic,
- 21:24Speaker 3: if if you need to be have something, be over
- 21:27Speaker 3: the moon to move him. I'm okay with that too,
- 21:29Speaker 3: because he's a guy that I like and a guy
- 21:31Speaker 3: that I think that if they're if they're serious about
- 21:34Speaker 3: building this club the right way, and I don't know
- 21:35Speaker 3: how long it's gonna take or what they're you know,
- 21:37Speaker 3: they're uh Jesus God, I don't know how long they're there.
- 21:42Speaker 3: Their rope is, but he's part of it.
- 21:45Speaker 5: He can rip the ball, Guys, he's second in the
- 21:47Speaker 5: league in home runs at a catcher. He can rip
- 21:50Speaker 5: the ball.
- 21:51Speaker 4: Doesn't grow on trees. That record stole for or has
- 21:55Speaker 4: stood for fifty six years.
- 21:57Speaker 3: What's interesting is they acquired two shortstops yesterday in these
- 22:00Speaker 3: deals and I'm thinking to myself, you know, Zeke, we
- 22:05Speaker 3: all love Tovar, do we not. I'm thinking, you know,
- 22:09Speaker 3: he's not he's not hitting very well himself. Now I'm thinking,
- 22:13Speaker 3: are they looking for the future here or is it
- 22:15Speaker 3: just a coincidence in these deals. I think you just
- 22:18Speaker 3: take a highly rated prospect because it's an asset, not
- 22:21Speaker 3: necessarily that you're looking to the future to replace, you know,
- 22:25Speaker 3: that position. But I thought it was interesting a couple
- 22:27Speaker 3: of shorties come back and yeah, we'll see, we'll see.
- 22:30Speaker 3: I don't know how they're gonna stack up in the system.
- 22:32Speaker 3: By the way, I watched a little bit of yesterday's game.
- 22:35Speaker 4: You're Lorenzen has had a he's been awful means to jump.
- 22:41Speaker 5: His best pitching happened in the World Baseball Classic for
- 22:44Speaker 5: Team Italy, and then after that it's been all downhill.
- 22:46Speaker 5: He hasn't been able to throw at this level. He
- 22:49Speaker 5: hasn't been Chicano's the only guy. Of the guys he
- 22:53Speaker 5: acquired in the offseason, he's been a stunt. Sagano's been
- 22:56Speaker 5: a stunt. These other guys, man.
- 22:58Speaker 3: They're just there. Yeah, Lorenzen got ripped his erras hovering
- 23:03Speaker 3: around seven. The Rays are a first place team. I mean,
- 23:06Speaker 3: they're really good, but they absolutely pasted him. Every time
- 23:09Speaker 3: I look at Lorenza, though, I'm like, I always think
- 23:11Speaker 3: to myself, how much is that guy bench press? Because
- 23:14Speaker 3: that guy is That guy's yoked, man, that guy's jacked.
- 23:18Speaker 4: I wonder if some of the the rest of the
- 23:20Speaker 4: league not making these like massive swings at the deadline
- 23:23Speaker 4: because they were, you know, like Mason Miller doesn't go anywhere,
- 23:26Speaker 4: and that was the talk of the town for the
- 23:28Speaker 4: better part of Like the Padres.
- 23:30Speaker 5: The Padres are digging in. They added two starters. They
- 23:33Speaker 5: figure they can make up the room. They want to
- 23:35Speaker 5: just get in. If they get in the show, they
- 23:37Speaker 5: can make some noise.
- 23:38Speaker 4: Do you wonder if a lot of the league looked
- 23:41Speaker 4: at the Dodger situation and went, yeah, what's the point?
- 23:44Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you know what, though you could say that,
- 23:47Speaker 5: but we last year, for example, the Dodgers, they're at
- 23:51Speaker 5: the brink. Remember they were at the brink in San Diego.
- 23:56Speaker 5: I don't know if you guys remember that in that series.
- 23:58Speaker 5: San Diego had a chance to wrap up the series
- 24:00Speaker 5: and couldn't do it.
- 24:01Speaker 4: They were a ground rule double away. So from losing
- 24:03Speaker 4: the World Series. You are right, yeah, what happened?
- 24:05Speaker 3: What do they do? The ball got caught underneath the No, no,
- 24:08Speaker 3: I'm saying what, but what what eventually happened? They won
- 24:11Speaker 3: the World I'm okay. I'm listening to Dan Patrick talk
- 24:15Speaker 3: the other day about about the Scoobal trade, and you know,
- 24:19Speaker 3: he's like, yeah, you know, this could be the thing
- 24:21Speaker 3: that you know, puts baseball over the edge and this
- 24:23Speaker 3: kind of thing. And then he started to get into well,
- 24:26Speaker 3: you know last year in the World Series, I mean,
- 24:28Speaker 3: the Dodgers went said they got taken a seven games
- 24:31Speaker 3: by the Jays and all, and I'm like, yeah, but
- 24:33Speaker 3: they won. I mean, but they but they did win. Yeah,
- 24:35Speaker 3: they got taken seven games, but they did win. Yeah,
- 24:38Speaker 3: they were they were this close. But you know what
- 24:39Speaker 3: they did. They won because you give when you have
- 24:43Speaker 3: an all Star team as a team and you have
- 24:45Speaker 3: a rotation with a payroll that would be eighteenth best
- 24:48Speaker 3: in Major League Baseball overall, you tend to squeak out
- 24:53Speaker 3: the ones that are close. Now, you can come close
- 24:54Speaker 3: to losing, and teams can get hot, and I dig
- 24:57Speaker 3: all of that, but the fact of the matter is
- 24:59Speaker 3: they won. That's like saying, you know, you have these
- 25:02Speaker 3: Super Bowl champion teams that can spend more money than
- 25:04Speaker 3: everybody else. Let's say there's no salary cap. Well, you
- 25:07Speaker 3: know they were a missfield goal away, okay, but or
- 25:10Speaker 3: made field goal away, but they still won. VIC.
- 25:12Speaker 4: Did you see the latest from Mark Stein around Peyton Watson?
- 25:16Speaker 4: The nuggets, the numbers that are being thrown around sixteen
- 25:19Speaker 4: to eighteen million dollars annually. Is there a chance that
- 25:23Speaker 4: Denver can actually sign Peyton Watson to a long term
- 25:25Speaker 4: extension that number?
- 25:27Speaker 3: Explain what he said a little more thoroughly.
- 25:29Speaker 5: He estimates that the offers coming in for Peyton Watson
- 25:32Speaker 5: from other teams were sixteen to eighteen million.
- 25:36Speaker 3: Dollars per annum.
- 25:37Speaker 5: Correct, Yes, okay, that's because it's gonna cost other teams
- 25:39Speaker 5: some assets to get him. That number would be different
- 25:42Speaker 5: if he were an unrestricted free agent. I think that
- 25:45Speaker 5: number would go up.
- 25:46Speaker 3: And frankly, I'm not sure if those numbers are indeed true,
- 25:49Speaker 3: that those are numbers that he throws out there. If
- 25:51Speaker 3: it is true, if it's sixteen to eighteen, it's.
- 25:53Speaker 5: No no brainer, then you try to sign him here.
- 25:56Speaker 5: But he may be like and I think his clutch
- 25:58Speaker 5: sports representatives. Okay, well that's not the number we think
- 26:02Speaker 5: he's worth. Let's go ahead and take the qualifying offer.
- 26:05Speaker 5: Play a season at six point five, you know, roll
- 26:09Speaker 5: the dice and see if we can produce the same
- 26:11Speaker 5: type of performance we had the year before in that month.
- 26:13Speaker 3: That's the thing. One month, he's gonna do it for
- 26:16Speaker 3: six months.
- 26:17Speaker 4: What's the amount of games that Peyton Watson needs to
- 26:19Speaker 4: play this year in order for that bet to pay out.
- 26:22Speaker 3: Of the majority of the season. Yeah, he's gotta.
- 26:25Speaker 5: Play the majority fifty enough. I mean, I don't know
- 26:27Speaker 5: the number you want to put on it, but he's
- 26:29Speaker 5: gotta play the majority of the season if he's gonna
- 26:31Speaker 5: roll that die. If I'm the Nuggets, I try at
- 26:36Speaker 5: this point maybe to fashion.
- 26:37Speaker 3: A deal to make both sides happy. And this is
- 26:39Speaker 3: what it would do. If Payton Watson thinks he's worth
- 26:43Speaker 3: more than sixteen to eighteen. It's very clear that his
- 26:46Speaker 3: camp does obviously. Okay, how about a short term two
- 26:50Speaker 3: year in that range. Bridget a bridge deal. Let's see
- 26:55Speaker 3: what you can do with this money. We're gonna up
- 26:57Speaker 3: the any for you. We're gonna double more than double you.
- 26:59Speaker 3: So we're gonna triple your salary for two years. See
- 27:03Speaker 3: if you can play on.
- 27:04Speaker 5: It for two seasons, and at that point you'll only
- 27:06Speaker 5: be twenty five years old. Hell, you'll be entering your prime.
- 27:10Speaker 5: Then you make the big bucks, right or if he
- 27:13Speaker 5: chooses to go qualifying offer, that's a big risk.
- 27:16Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a risk for both though, because if he
- 27:18Speaker 3: does have a good year, he can just go UFA
- 27:20Speaker 3: and go wherever he wants. But if he doesn't, then
- 27:24Speaker 3: he's probably gonna be bitter anyway. Look, if he takes
- 27:27Speaker 3: the qualifying offer, my thought is he's probably gonna be
- 27:30Speaker 3: gone no matter what. That's my thought. What worries me
- 27:33Speaker 3: about a qualifying offer? And Vick, if you would like to,
- 27:35Speaker 3: if you would like to talk me down, I'm here
- 27:37Speaker 3: for it. I'm more than you know, more than accepting
- 27:40Speaker 3: of that. If he takes the qualifying offer, are we
- 27:44Speaker 3: ever going to get to a point in this season? Well,
- 27:46Speaker 3: they're not using me as much, you know, They're not
- 27:48Speaker 3: allowing me to show what I can do. They're not.
- 27:50Speaker 3: I mean, what I don't want is to is the
- 27:52Speaker 3: squeaky wheel syndrome. I would not be able to handle
- 27:55Speaker 3: that where Hey, look, okay, I'll take your qualifying offer
- 27:59Speaker 3: and I'll try. You know, I'll play the best I
- 28:01Speaker 3: possibly can, but you gotta use me. I'm sure he
- 28:03Speaker 3: wants to be in the starting lineup. I'm but he's
- 28:06Speaker 3: still a bench guy. With the way the lineup looks
- 28:08Speaker 3: right now, he's still a bench guy. Not that there's
- 28:10Speaker 3: not room for him to get plenty of minutes, especially
- 28:12Speaker 3: with the lingering injuries to other people. I'm just saying, man,
- 28:16Speaker 3: I don't want to get into a They're not playing
- 28:18Speaker 3: me enough. I'm pouting. I'm not happy because I'm trying
- 28:21Speaker 3: to earn a lot in the UFA.
- 28:23Speaker 5: The number one rule of any locker room is minimize
- 28:27Speaker 5: the complaints, right. You don't want angry players. You don't
- 28:30Speaker 5: want guys who are just not not totally satisfied with
- 28:34Speaker 5: their playing time or their contract. And that would be
- 28:36Speaker 5: a tough one to navigate, to be honest with you,
- 28:39Speaker 5: because he knows.
- 28:40Speaker 3: He's worth more.
- 28:41Speaker 5: They know he's worth more, but they're locked into it
- 28:44Speaker 5: right now and they can't do much. That's why that
- 28:46Speaker 5: bridge offer. If i'm the Nuggets, figure out a way
- 28:49Speaker 5: to give him that bridge offer for two years. If
- 28:52Speaker 5: you do that, you're still gonna have to move somebody, though, Fellas,
- 28:55Speaker 5: somebody's gonna have to go, right, You're moving a starter.
- 28:57Speaker 5: Somebody's gonna have to go because you're not gonna pay
- 28:59Speaker 5: him that money and not start him.
- 29:01Speaker 3: You're not. So it's Cam Johnson or it's Christian Brown
- 29:05Speaker 3: going Aaron.
- 29:06Speaker 5: I mean, everybody's on the table. I mean, I don't
- 29:09Speaker 5: think anybody's off the table. If you couldn't move those deals.
- 29:12Speaker 5: We've talked about this before. It's easier said than done.
- 29:16Speaker 5: I had this conversation with Britt Kine last week. He said, well,
- 29:18Speaker 5: just trade Cam. What if Cam is not easily tradeable?
- 29:23Speaker 5: I mean, it's easy to say, dump that money, but
- 29:25Speaker 5: what if the return for Cam isn't necessarily What if
- 29:28Speaker 5: you're gonna trade Cam and salary dump it?
- 29:31Speaker 3: You have to get some picks, don't you. You have
- 29:34Speaker 3: to You have to.
- 29:35Speaker 4: The easy thing about Cam is that it's an expiring contract.
- 29:38Speaker 4: Do we know how valuable those are in the NBA.
- 29:41Speaker 4: That's the reason why I think the Cam situation is easy.
- 29:43Speaker 4: I think you would end up having to take on
- 29:45Speaker 4: water if the trade is Christian Brown, if the trade
- 29:48Speaker 4: is Aaron Gordon, dare I say if the trade would
- 29:50Speaker 4: be a Jamal Murray type of thing.
- 29:52Speaker 5: But even for Cam who carries what twenty three million
- 29:56Speaker 5: on his cap hit? Even for Cam, how many teams
- 29:59Speaker 5: out there absorb that?
- 30:00Speaker 3: Right now? The sec million?
- 30:02Speaker 5: Right now, their rosters are set, they have to send
- 30:05Speaker 5: something back. And if they send something back, how much
- 30:08Speaker 5: can the Nuggets absorb they want to get out of
- 30:10Speaker 5: the apron. It's a much more complicated situation that people
- 30:14Speaker 5: give it credit for. You can't just say, hey, take
- 30:17Speaker 5: Cam and then we'll take three picks.
- 30:20Speaker 3: How many teams can take Cam? There aren't many. There
- 30:22Speaker 3: really aren't many, hardly any teams that can actually take him.
- 30:27Speaker 3: So I mean, and that's where the situation lies right now.
- 30:30Speaker 3: This is where this is where the three way comes in.
- 30:32Speaker 3: This is where the three way deal. You know, you
- 30:35Speaker 3: start to get creative with teams who you know have
- 30:37Speaker 3: some room, but they don't have that kind of room,
- 30:40Speaker 3: and then you start to move it around a little bit,
- 30:42Speaker 3: and then you get a picked from this team and
- 30:43Speaker 3: a pick from that team. That's where that's where that
- 30:46Speaker 3: comes into play.
- 30:47Speaker 5: One thing I do like about Cam Johnson, you know,
- 30:49Speaker 5: watching his podcast, he still does he produces his podcast.
- 30:53Speaker 5: At least he's he's very adult about this. He knows
- 30:56Speaker 5: it's a business, and he knows that his name is
- 30:59Speaker 5: out there, and he knows that trade offers are on
- 31:01Speaker 5: the table for him, and he understands that this is
- 31:04Speaker 5: part of the deal.
- 31:04Speaker 3: This is what you walk into.
- 31:06Speaker 5: He's not taking offense, he's not being insulted, he's not
- 31:10Speaker 5: sending these these weird Instagram videos.
- 31:14Speaker 3: He understands where he is. This is what it is
- 31:17Speaker 3: right now. So you could talk about Cam being trade bait,
- 31:21Speaker 3: because he knows he's trade bait. He's not dumb. The
- 31:24Speaker 3: five nine oh three says, I don't know mos is
- 31:26Speaker 3: he a bench guy or is Christian Brown actually a
- 31:28Speaker 3: bench guy getting paid starter money? Well, pe Watt wouldn't
- 31:30Speaker 3: play that spot anyway. But the fact of the matter is,
- 31:33Speaker 3: if things stay the way they are at this moment,
- 31:35Speaker 3: there's no room at the end for him. So he's
- 31:37Speaker 3: either he's either gonna be an ag spot or he's
- 31:41Speaker 3: gonna be a camp spot. That's where he plays. That's
- 31:44Speaker 3: his role on Ideally to me, he would be in
- 31:47Speaker 3: the Cam Johnson spot. So yeah, if he's going to
- 31:50Speaker 3: be a starter, one of those guys has to go.
- 31:53Speaker 3: That's just simply it. And one of those guys has
- 31:55Speaker 3: to go anyway because you cannot be in the second aprin.
- 31:58Speaker 3: That's assuming and sign him to a damn deal worth
- 32:01Speaker 3: sixteen to eighteen million.
- 32:03Speaker 4: Per Ensuring that a locker room does not from period,
- 32:07Speaker 4: does not break, ensuring that you do not have players
- 32:10Speaker 4: inside that room that are unhappy with where they are.
- 32:14Speaker 4: It's something that the guy who's about to walk out
- 32:17Speaker 4: those orange doors in front of us in about an
- 32:19Speaker 4: hour from right now, his first year's in Denver, he
- 32:22Speaker 4: got rid of those players. You can look no further
- 32:25Speaker 4: than the Jerry Judy trade.
- 32:26Speaker 5: Pet peeve of mine. I've heard you say this couple
- 32:29Speaker 5: of times. You said, in about an hour from right now.
- 32:32Speaker 3: Yeah, okay. All you have to do is say in
- 32:34Speaker 3: about an hour. The assumption is it's from right now.
- 32:38Speaker 3: It's not an hour from an hour ago or an
- 32:40Speaker 3: hour from there. You know what my pet peeve is.
- 32:42Speaker 3: I know, but from now on, don't say an hour
- 32:45Speaker 3: from right now. I do a lot of that too,
- 32:47Speaker 3: but I've noticed it. Oh, I can fix that, thank you.
- 32:50Speaker 3: I can fix that.
- 32:51Speaker 4: My pet peeve is, in my personal opinion as opposed
- 32:54Speaker 4: to in your opinion of vix In Jesse at your heels,
- 33:00Speaker 4: I want to talk about possibly bringing in another player
- 33:03Speaker 4: when it upset the Apple cart.
- 33:05Speaker 3: Do the Broncos need to go out and get Taysom Hill?
- 33:09Speaker 3: Are we gonna do that? In three minutes from right now,
- 33:11Speaker 3: at this very minute, I'm gonna throw my microphone. That's next.
- 33:17Speaker 3: Judging by the smiless food and on his face, there's
- 33:22Speaker 3: nothing I can do.
- 33:23Speaker 4: Just a few l fellas here at Broncos Park powered
- 33:26Speaker 4: by Common Spirit Trading Camp coverage on altitude ninety two five.
- 33:30Speaker 3: It's funny because Vic every every couple of years gets
- 33:34Speaker 3: fixated on an artist, or he gets fixated on a song,
- 33:38Speaker 3: and and and that's all he listens to. He'll listen
- 33:40Speaker 3: to the He'll listen to Ella Langley NonStop. Right, That's
- 33:44Speaker 3: what he does, man, And he loves this song. He
- 33:46Speaker 3: was looking up the lyrics to be able to sing
- 33:48Speaker 3: that all I know you don't you're a terrible word.
- 33:50Speaker 3: I was trying to fist bump him because I'm fixating
- 33:52Speaker 3: on l A two. But give him, give him some Okay, Well,
- 33:56Speaker 3: here's a lot of moments past. I heard You're cold.
- 33:59Speaker 3: I mean you're I'm plaining about the cold mine. I thought,
- 34:02Speaker 3: freeze right, where have those hands been? Maybe that's why
- 34:05Speaker 3: he doesn't want a fistpack.
- 34:06Speaker 4: You got sit in my hands for the rest of
- 34:07Speaker 4: the day. Fellas I teased it going into the break.
- 34:11Speaker 4: Taysom Hill a free agent no longer in New Orleans.
- 34:14Speaker 4: He turns thirty six years old in about nineteen days.
- 34:19Speaker 4: Would you take the chance of bringing him into the
- 34:21Speaker 4: tight end slash running back slash backup quarterback room?
- 34:25Speaker 3: What could he do?
- 34:26Speaker 4: I have no idea, but Sean Payton didn't shoot the
- 34:31Speaker 4: idea down immediately, and I thought that was telling trying
- 34:34Speaker 4: to find a god damn joker.
- 34:35Speaker 5: I just don't know what the need is anymore. I
- 34:38Speaker 5: value the player. I know what he did for them
- 34:41Speaker 5: in New Orleans. He's coming off a major knee surgery,
- 34:44Speaker 5: he's older. What would he do here? What role would
- 34:49Speaker 5: he play here? Whose job would he take here? Because
- 34:53Speaker 5: the tight end room is ripen off. They got so
- 34:56Speaker 5: many damn players in there, someone's gonna.
- 34:57Speaker 3: Lose his job.
- 34:58Speaker 5: Well it's crowded, yes, not right. Well, there's too many
- 35:01Speaker 5: players in the room and not enough talent. I guess
- 35:04Speaker 5: you could say, I don't want to say that because
- 35:07Speaker 5: Adam Troutman is gonna hear. We're gonna hear from him.
- 35:10Speaker 5: He spoke yesterday. The point is whose job would he take?
- 35:15Speaker 5: Who's Taysom Hills? Well, but that's the thing about Taysom Hill.
- 35:18Speaker 5: There's not really a job for him. There's not one
- 35:21Speaker 5: single job. He moves around and does different things because
- 35:25Speaker 5: he can do different things. Look, I guess I would say,
- 35:29Speaker 5: how valuable is every single roster spot now in the
- 35:32Speaker 5: National Football League?
- 35:33Speaker 3: The answer is very, very valuable. Coaches, man, it kills
- 35:38Speaker 3: them to have to whittle it down, to be honest
- 35:40Speaker 3: with you. And then even active is on game day,
- 35:42Speaker 3: so he would have to They would have to design
- 35:45Speaker 3: things not worth it to let me make the judgment. Now,
- 35:48Speaker 3: I vote nay. Well, he played thirteen games last year.
- 35:51Speaker 3: I vot blew his knee out two years ago. I
- 35:55Speaker 3: vote nay, because enough enough of the New Orleans is
- 36:00Speaker 3: this is Denver, you know who.
- 36:01Speaker 4: I don't want him to turn into little Jordan Humphrey,
- 36:03Speaker 4: who's just like on the roster because he and Sean
- 36:08Speaker 4: Payton love each other somehow and LJ plays special teams
- 36:11Speaker 4: and that's it.
- 36:12Speaker 3: It's funny because Peyton, as you were talking about one
- 36:15Speaker 3: hour from right, one hour would you say'd you say
- 36:18Speaker 3: it one hour from right? Hey?
- 36:19Speaker 5: No, I'm not saying it anymore. Okay, Well I can
- 36:21Speaker 5: take coaching. Ron said in about eighty minutes from fifteen
- 36:24Speaker 5: minutes from now, Chefter will be on the air exactly hard.
- 36:28Speaker 3: You're Adam Schefter at nine to twenty Drew Goodman at
- 36:31Speaker 3: eight forty five today. No, but it's Sean cleared out
- 36:34Speaker 3: all that old regime stuff, right, gotting a gun. But
- 36:37Speaker 3: he likes to he likes to bring his regime in,
- 36:39Speaker 3: be a little piece, a little piece there, that kind
- 36:41Speaker 3: of thing. And he obviously loved the guy. But when
- 36:44Speaker 3: the guy when when when Hill was twenty eight years old,
- 36:46Speaker 3: twenty nine years old, that's one thing, you know. And
- 36:49Speaker 3: now but he's gonna be thirty six years old, and
- 36:51Speaker 3: that's something totally different. Now. I don't even know how
- 36:54Speaker 3: much he has left in the tank, to be honest,
- 36:56Speaker 3: that's a position.
- 36:56Speaker 5: The way he played it relies so heavily on athleticism
- 36:59Speaker 5: and your little up a little older.
- 37:00Speaker 3: I don't see the need.
- 37:01Speaker 4: His last one truly great years were I don't know
- 37:05Speaker 4: and I don't know even know if he had a
- 37:06Speaker 4: great year but a dynamic year, we're like twenty twenty one, Yeah,
- 37:10Speaker 4: twenty twenty two. I still think it would have it
- 37:14Speaker 4: would have behooved Sean Payton to go. I love Taysum,
- 37:17Speaker 4: but I'm focused on the guys.
- 37:19Speaker 3: Want guys that doesn't want to insult him.
- 37:21Speaker 5: He doesn't want to, you know, ruin his market because
- 37:23Speaker 5: there's some teams that probably are talking to him. So
- 37:26Speaker 5: if he casts him off for perhaps he's doing him
- 37:29Speaker 5: a disfavor there. So I understand what he's doing. But
- 37:31Speaker 5: this is not New Orleans, this is Denver.
- 37:33Speaker 3: Let's move on. If you have a need as a
- 37:35Speaker 3: football team, and you think you could design some things
- 37:38Speaker 3: for him and utilize him in a bunch of different
- 37:40Speaker 3: ways because he was a college quarterback, he can obviously
- 37:43Speaker 3: throw the ball, he can catch the ball, he can
- 37:46Speaker 3: run the ball, he can do a lot of things
- 37:47Speaker 3: with the football. If you can design things around him,
- 37:50Speaker 3: then okay, sounds good. But at this point with this team,
- 37:54Speaker 3: I don't know about that. Would you break him as
- 37:56Speaker 3: a backup quarterback? No, not a chance in hell no.
- 37:59Speaker 3: Because if he's playing, if he's playing, the game you've lost,
- 38:02Speaker 3: you just no need to. I would argue to you
- 38:05Speaker 3: as a quarterback. Both the guys you have right now
- 38:08Speaker 3: are better than he is, and they've been known to
- 38:11Speaker 3: carry three. Now.
- 38:12Speaker 5: I don't know about Stidham this year. That's why we've
- 38:15Speaker 5: talked about this is how long you're gonna take that job?
- 38:18Speaker 5: You know, if you if you let stid Him walk,
- 38:19Speaker 5: you save a ton of money. You're the ones saying
- 38:21Speaker 5: that they're in a bit of a buye next year.
- 38:23Speaker 3: They are in a buying next Okay, So then so
- 38:25Speaker 3: then you bring in then you bring him in as
- 38:27Speaker 3: a third string guy. You know, maybe Sean Sas say,
- 38:32Speaker 3: can you can you hold out long enough for us
- 38:34Speaker 3: to determine whether or not we're going to to go
- 38:37Speaker 3: with the former Texas quarterback as our number two or not?
- 38:39Speaker 4: I mean, it might send the wrong message to camp.
- 38:43Speaker 4: Considering the roster turnover that doesn't exist out there. Right
- 38:47Speaker 4: There's been three starting positions that have been turned over
- 38:51Speaker 4: on both the offense and the defense combined, which is
- 38:53Speaker 4: insane to me. Right, Like, no other team in the
- 38:55Speaker 4: NFL has this much roster continuity. And then you bring
- 38:58Speaker 4: in a player in the middle of like, I always
- 38:59Speaker 4: go back to the scene in Miracle right where they
- 39:02Speaker 4: bring in the stud from Minnesota and the boys get
- 39:05Speaker 4: off the bus and they go her, what the hell
- 39:07Speaker 4: is happening here?
- 39:08Speaker 3: Timmy Timmy Tim harrr, Timmy Horror, the hell? What's just?
- 39:20Speaker 3: It's just, is it? Tim Horr? I don't know what's
- 39:23Speaker 3: I don't know what the hell you're talking about. God
- 39:26Speaker 3: dang it, you can't just utter words and expect me
- 39:29Speaker 3: to understand what you're saying, Tim Horror, Tim Horror, Sorry,
- 39:32Speaker 3: the horror of horror? What what? What is this? He
- 39:34Speaker 3: was the one Herb Brooks, But I remember the way
- 39:40Speaker 3: it was said by who whatever? An actor was playing whatever.
- 39:45Speaker 3: But he played for Herb Brooks at the University of Minnesota. Okay,
- 39:50Speaker 3: So midway through camp or towards the end of camp,
- 39:52Speaker 3: he brings Timmy Horror in because the guy can score
- 39:55Speaker 3: the puck, and he said there was oh see, because
- 39:59Speaker 3: we're a team, you know whatever, your family, her family. Okay,
- 40:03Speaker 3: So there you go.
- 40:04Speaker 4: Would it send the wrong message if you bring in
- 40:06Speaker 4: someone like that as opposed to like, this is my
- 40:09Speaker 4: dream scenario finding a way to bring in Vidavea. But
- 40:13Speaker 4: they don't have the cap space going into the future.
- 40:15Speaker 4: And the reason why Videvea and Tampa Bay are butting
- 40:18Speaker 4: heads because Tampa doesn't want to extend him past this year,
- 40:21Speaker 4: but would bring it back.
- 40:23Speaker 3: Dude.
- 40:23Speaker 5: We have a very wise texture from Fort Collins nineteen
- 40:26Speaker 5: twenty four, who writes what I was thinking, writes in prediction,
- 40:31Speaker 5: they'll bring in Taysom Hill week.
- 40:33Speaker 3: Two, so his contract is not guaranteed. That's Tim and
- 40:36Speaker 3: no coach. Okay, call Tim. So what if he gets
- 40:38Speaker 3: a job with somebody else between now and then.
- 40:40Speaker 5: That's roll of the dice. Okay, who knows it better
- 40:43Speaker 5: than this guy? What are the coaches known better than
- 40:45Speaker 5: this guy here? So and he can make the choice
- 40:48Speaker 5: at that point.
- 40:48Speaker 3: Well, sure, I mean, but if it's let's see I'm
- 40:51Speaker 3: let's say i'm him. I'd like to have a job. Okay,
- 40:54Speaker 3: if you want me to wait until week two or
- 40:56Speaker 3: whatever on some whim, fine, I'm looking for a right now. Hey,
- 41:01Speaker 3: I love your former coach. I love the opportunity. If
- 41:04Speaker 3: it's gonna be there, that's great, But I need a
- 41:07Speaker 3: job now.
- 41:08Speaker 5: Several people on the text sign also wondering if you
- 41:10Speaker 5: did suffer at there.
- 41:12Speaker 3: No, it's Tim Harrr saying Nelly, would Nelly do me
- 41:17Speaker 3: a favor? I don't have a stroke, Nelly play fat Kids, No, No,
- 41:21Speaker 3: find the clip. I don't Kim Miracle, I do. I
- 41:24Speaker 3: don't care because it would make sense when you hear it.
- 41:27Speaker 3: It doesn't. It won't change my day, It won't alter
- 41:29Speaker 3: my outlook on this topic. It won't change anything. It
- 41:32Speaker 3: certainly would help you shut up and not get on
- 41:34Speaker 3: my ass. What what you just said there? And you
- 41:36Speaker 3: sabotage the show by trying to pronounce a guy's name
- 41:38Speaker 3: for an hour.
- 41:39Speaker 4: And it's gonna show up on Friday during drunk takes.
- 41:41Speaker 4: It might show up today during fact checker.
- 41:43Speaker 3: We're Steven, Steven? Are you even on the camera. I
- 41:46Speaker 3: can't even see you. I don't see Steve at all.
- 41:48Speaker 3: It all boils me down to here, are you smelling
- 41:50Speaker 3: burnt toast? Is everything okay out there? Jeez?
- 41:53Speaker 4: It all boils down to whether or not like having
- 41:55Speaker 4: Taysom Hill on this roster actively affects your chances to
- 41:59Speaker 4: win a Super Bowl?
- 41:59Speaker 3: And I don't think it does.
- 42:00Speaker 4: Even when I talk about videvea, if you didn't bring
- 42:03Speaker 4: in that player, do I think that the guys on
- 42:05Speaker 4: the field in front of us can win a Super
- 42:07Speaker 4: Bowl this year without bringing in anyone else. Yes, I do,
- 42:10Speaker 4: without a doubt. There's no question about the level of
- 42:15Speaker 4: this defense being a top five unit. And if they
- 42:17Speaker 4: can find a way to up the turnovers, it gets
- 42:20Speaker 4: even better. If bo Nicks and the Davis Web experiment
- 42:23Speaker 4: works out and they don't start games in the third quarter.
- 42:27Speaker 4: The ninety some odd players that we've seen for four days,
- 42:31Speaker 4: they can win Super One of.
- 42:32Speaker 5: The reasons why, and I don't think we've stressed this enough,
- 42:35Speaker 5: one of the reasons why they don't have as many
- 42:38Speaker 5: turnovers as they we think they should is because they
- 42:40Speaker 5: believe so much man. And when your corners are playing man,
- 42:44Speaker 5: your eyes aren't on the ball, your eyes are on
- 42:46Speaker 5: the guy you're covering. So zone defenses are more apt
- 42:50Speaker 5: to come up. Zone defense can be beaten too. But
- 42:53Speaker 5: when you're playing the aggressive man style football that the
- 42:57Speaker 5: Broncos do, and that's Riley Moss on one side, Patrick
- 43:00Speaker 5: Shirtan on the other, Jakwan McMillan in the slot, and
- 43:03Speaker 5: that's what you're doing, it's harder. It's harder to throw
- 43:07Speaker 5: to get an interception. So where that comes from remains
- 43:10Speaker 5: to be seen. It hasn't come from the secondary. Can
- 43:13Speaker 5: you look up how many interceptions the secondary got last year.
- 43:16Speaker 5: I would guarantee you that the Denver Broncos secondary is
- 43:20Speaker 5: near the bottom of the league in interceptions the secondary alone. Yeah, probably,
- 43:25Speaker 5: And a lot of that is because of the style
- 43:27Speaker 5: of defense they play.
- 43:28Speaker 3: Sure had a big one though in the divisional game.
- 43:30Speaker 3: Sure had a huge one. Of course. That's why we
- 43:34Speaker 3: remember them because they were I dig that.
- 43:37Speaker 5: I mean, they're not picking the ball off all over
- 43:39Speaker 5: the place. He is manually counting them, right, So six
- 43:42Speaker 5: interceptions by the back, that's gotta be.
- 43:45Speaker 3: That has to be bottom third without a doubt.
- 43:48Speaker 4: Two for Jakwon McMillan, one for Riley Moss, one for Sirtan,
- 43:51Speaker 4: one for Jones, and one for j Bart.
- 43:54Speaker 5: That's not because they lack talents, because of the style
- 43:56Speaker 5: of play. You know, they're again their backs are to
- 43:59Speaker 5: the quarterback, they're running with the receiver. It's much more
- 44:02Speaker 5: difficult to come up with the ball. They they see
- 44:05Speaker 5: the ball at the last second. All right, just put
- 44:08Speaker 5: yourself in that situation. You're Patrick's are ten, You're back pedaling,
- 44:12Speaker 5: the receiver runs an out route. You turn it into
- 44:14Speaker 5: an out route. The ball's right there, you bat it down,
- 44:16Speaker 5: you make the tackle. You're playing a zone. You see
- 44:19Speaker 5: the ball the entire time, I see the quarterback the
- 44:22Speaker 5: entire time.
- 44:22Speaker 3: Broncos over Broncos overall ten picks along with the Cards, Chiefs, Patriots, Saints, Dolphins,
- 44:29Speaker 3: and Giants at nine Washington at A. But you look
- 44:32Speaker 3: at the leaders like the Bears at twenty three, Jags
- 44:34Speaker 3: twenty two, Chargers nineteen. So there you go.
- 44:37Speaker 4: Six from defensive backs has to be bottom three in
- 44:40Speaker 4: the league.
- 44:41Speaker 3: It has to be. I would agree with you.
- 44:42Speaker 4: Three zero, three, five, four, nine to two five is
- 44:45Speaker 4: where you can reach us. By the way, football is
- 44:47Speaker 4: back on Altitude Sports Radio ninety two to five Thursday night,
