- 0:45[SPEAKER_02]: off season officially began on our last episode right monday reacting to the superbowl but how have you been able to kind of decompress from the season i mean i guess broncos we got a two week head start right
- 0:59[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, anyone in this business, they really can't decompress.
- 1:02[SPEAKER_01]: And unless they take a vacation and get away because it's constant, they're still news coming out, Chad.
- 1:06[SPEAKER_01]: We're both geared up for the combine and free agency and then the draft after that.
- 1:10[SPEAKER_01]: It really, the grind never stops.
- 1:12[SPEAKER_01]: But right now, it's one of those rare dead periods where we're ramping up to the combine, but all we have to go on or like aggregation and outlets speculating this and predicting that.
- 1:22[SPEAKER_01]: And you know what's the off season when we're talking about a Portland Sutton Instagram post, but here we are.
- 1:28[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so real quick, we'll get to that.
- 1:31[SPEAKER_02]: Some hello's David Mackelrath, the pop of Bear Great to see you, I just checked on your tracking order by the way, that should be hitting you.

- 1:47[SPEAKER_02]: We'll just call it that.
- 1:48[SPEAKER_02]: He says good evening, Broncos Country.
- 1:51[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you for being an awesome member and a dear friend, buddy.
- 1:54[SPEAKER_02]: We got the rock in the house saying good evening.
- 1:57[SPEAKER_02]: appreciate you pal.
- 1:59[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, as he says, hit the thumbs up guys.
- 2:01[SPEAKER_02]: We're cranking it for you on the 11th of February on a Wednesday night.
- 2:06[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.
- 2:07[SPEAKER_02]: What's up guys?
- 2:07[SPEAKER_02]: We got David young can hope you're doing well.
- 2:09[SPEAKER_02]: Big dog.
- 2:10[SPEAKER_02]: Let's get to some of this real quick and then we'll grab Shannon.
- 2:13[SPEAKER_02]: So the scuddle, but I start getting hit and the mentions over.
- 2:25[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know why people have to read into things, but he posted a highlight video of 2025 with on Instagram with the caption that said chapter closed and the prayer hands emoji.
- 2:38[SPEAKER_02]: That's it.
- 2:39[SPEAKER_02]: Zack, some people went, oh my goodness, could it mean that he's planning on moving on?
- 2:44[SPEAKER_02]: He's been in the rumor mill for how many off-season's in a row now.
- 2:48[SPEAKER_02]: It's like, no, man, he's just, I think he kind of knows what he's doing where he kind of likes to to stir the pot a little bit, but it has absolutely nothing to do with, oh, could he be gone as he goes somewhere they're going to trade and they're going to kind of let us not forget Zack, he just signed what was it, a four year, 92 million dollar deal last summer, court and sudden, then delivers a thousand yard pro bull season, Broncos tie the franchise record and wins, 14 wins, when a playoff game, the division, all that stuff, I don't think he's going anyone.
- 3:17[SPEAKER_01]: No, I mean, I can answer your first question.
- 3:19[SPEAKER_01]: He said, a lot of people do this and read too much into it because like I said, there's nothing really going on right now.
- 3:24[SPEAKER_01]: And they also know that it's going to get impressions and views and clicks and reaction on social media.
- 3:28[SPEAKER_01]: And for some people, it did today.
- 3:30[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, Portland also came out and reclairified on social media that he meant he's talking about the season, not about his career, nothing ominous or anything like that.
- 3:41[SPEAKER_01]: It's typical offseason banter right now, Chad.
- 3:43[SPEAKER_01]: And that's why I'm happy, at least, when we get to one of those pinnacle events,
- 3:46[SPEAKER_01]: like the combat real tangible stuff coming up.
- 3:50[SPEAKER_02]: No doubt.
- 3:51[SPEAKER_02]: Shannon Mills, jumping in great to see you.
- 3:53[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you so much, Shannon.
- 3:54[SPEAKER_02]: Hope you're doing well.
- 3:56[SPEAKER_02]: Awesome to have you a dear member and a Mount Rushmore Superstar.
- 3:59[SPEAKER_02]: She says, Good evening.
- 4:00[SPEAKER_02]: Happy Wednesday.
- 4:02[SPEAKER_02]: I am hoping this message is just referring to the end of a less than stellar season for court and the Broncos.
- 4:07[SPEAKER_02]: And he and the team are ready to regroup and win next year.
- 4:10[SPEAKER_02]: Go Broncos.
- 4:11[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's just he's just basically punctuating It's his way of saying seasons over and celebrating.
- 4:18[SPEAKER_02]: I wouldn't say that it was Well, was it stellar for Portland Sutton's act?
- 4:23[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe not stellar, right?
- 4:24[SPEAKER_02]: Like stellar's
- 4:25[SPEAKER_02]: way up there dude.
- 4:26[SPEAKER_02]: It's like galactic.
- 4:28[SPEAKER_02]: It's stellar.
- 4:29[SPEAKER_02]: But he was very good.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, he's he earned only Zack his second proble nod of his career and it was his eighth season, right?
- 4:37[SPEAKER_02]: 18, 19, 22, 22, 22, 22, 22, 22, 24, 25.
- 4:39[SPEAKER_02]: That was his eighth season.
- 4:41[SPEAKER_02]: It's only the second time in his career.
- 4:42[SPEAKER_02]: He got a proble nod.
- 4:44[SPEAKER_02]: It's only the third time in his career.
- 4:45[SPEAKER_02]: Zack, you got over a thousand yards.
- 4:47[SPEAKER_02]: The drops weren't great.
- 4:48[SPEAKER_02]: But other than that, Zack, I don't really take take anything away from
- 4:56[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Shannon, thank you so much for your generosity as always.
- 4:59[SPEAKER_01]: And I was thinking the same thing, Chad said, I do think for Coral and Sutton, it was a pretty good season.
- 5:05[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know about stellar, but I don't know about less than stellar either in a negative connotation.
- 5:10[SPEAKER_01]: I looked it up just to be sure he had 74 catches, 1,017 receiving yards, 7 touchdowns.
- 5:16[SPEAKER_01]: He averaged 13.7 yards per catch, which was higher than 2024.
- 5:21[SPEAKER_01]: It's only third thousand yards season in his career.
- 5:23[SPEAKER_01]: So for Coralin, which is what he is really a high-end wide receiver too, that's very good, but he's still a wide receiver too, because like Chad mentioned the drops.
- 5:33[SPEAKER_01]: So that's always going to be the case with him.
- 5:36[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, as he's gotten older, his yards per catch average kind of went from being big explosive guy the first two or three years.
- 5:45[SPEAKER_02]: He was in the league, like, yes, year three was when he had that knee injury.
- 5:48[SPEAKER_02]: So we'll say the first two years of his career, he had a really big yards per catch number.
- 5:55[SPEAKER_02]: And each year, it's kind of steadily declined to where he's becomes act more of that possession receiver, more so than big vertical down the field play.
- 6:03[SPEAKER_02]: wide receiver, but he definitely has that capability and Zach, he's still even if he's not blowing the doors down in terms of getting off the ball and creating separation, he can still go up and get that ball, turn the 50, 50s into the 60, 40s or the 70, 30s.
- 6:19[SPEAKER_01]: That's the best thing he does.
- 6:21[SPEAKER_01]: He makes the improbable catches that you would never expect him to make.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, he literally will moss a corner back on on one play and then he'll drop something that hits him right in the hands, right in the chest, the easiest pass you'll ever see at the most in the opportune time.
- 6:35[SPEAKER_01]: That is what separating Cortland Sutton from being a high-end widersiever two and a legitimate widersiever one.
- 6:41[SPEAKER_01]: Shannon the Bronco still need that guy this offseason desperately.
- 6:45[SPEAKER_02]: Really quick here.
- 6:46[SPEAKER_02]: That's what I get for clicking off the screen to go find this.
- 6:49[SPEAKER_02]: So real quick when Zax says that Sutton clarified his post.
- 6:56[SPEAKER_02]: This is what he did in his story on IG.
- 7:02[SPEAKER_02]: He posted again saying, I was obviously talking, remember what did it say, chapter closed.
- 7:09[SPEAKER_02]: I was obviously talking about chapter eight.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_02]: So there you have it, guys.
- 7:14[SPEAKER_02]: There's absolutely nothing more to read into it.
- 7:18[SPEAKER_02]: But Shannon, we love you.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_02]: We appreciate you.
- 7:20[SPEAKER_02]: Let's hope Portland and the receivers in general got the message from Sean Payton's firing of Kerry Colbert and by the way,
- 7:29[SPEAKER_02]: got hired by the Baltimore Ravens for what it's worth and they get to the bottom of this weird lack of concentration according to Sean Peyton it maybe is more of a technique thing but get a handle on these drops and everybody's going to be alright.
- 7:46[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he explained it in his seasoned ending press conference and we actually demonstrated on the podcast what he was talking about.
- 7:52[SPEAKER_01]: They weren't catching the ball properly, literally in a very elementary level.
- 7:57[SPEAKER_01]: They weren't doing their jobs properly.
- 7:59[SPEAKER_01]: So that's why they replaced Kerry Colbert, but everyone, like you mentioned, Chad, it wasn't just something to be fair.
- 8:04[SPEAKER_01]: Most receivers on the roster did struggle with job issues.
- 8:07[SPEAKER_01]: That's why we encourage the Broncos to import not just one stud receiver, but multiple this off season.
- 8:14[SPEAKER_02]: Love you pop a bear, appreciate your big dog.
- 8:16[SPEAKER_02]: And I think that's, was it the second time in as many podcasts that I had the mute on or something?
- 8:22[SPEAKER_02]: It seems like I did that also.
- 8:23[SPEAKER_02]: It happens.
- 8:26[SPEAKER_02]: Sorry guys, lady D, top rope, the ladies of MHH showing out.
- 8:31[SPEAKER_02]: Once again, as is their way, we love you appreciate you.
- 8:34[SPEAKER_02]: Lady D says, people will always try to start a fire from smoke.
- 8:39[SPEAKER_02]: Sutton isn't going anywhere.
- 8:44[SPEAKER_02]: You guys want have a great.
- 8:46[SPEAKER_02]: I may have a great show.
- 8:47[SPEAKER_02]: I'm just for that's a very interesting question Zach.
- 8:50[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I think we do have to keep it within the realm
- 8:54[SPEAKER_02]: of the plausible slightly.
- 8:56[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, even George Pickins, Tully gets franchise tagged.
- 9:01[SPEAKER_02]: And even then, which probably can't happen until February 17th, is the first day teams can begin applying their tags.
- 9:08[SPEAKER_02]: And then they have, I want to say, till March 3rd.
- 9:11[SPEAKER_02]: So it's just a two week window, basically, that they have.
- 9:14[SPEAKER_02]: to decide who they're going to tag.
- 9:17[SPEAKER_02]: Even if they tag the cowboys, pickins, is that they're still the tag-and-trade possibilities, but then it just becomes all that more costly and expensive to get that wide receiver.
- 9:29[SPEAKER_02]: But what's your answer for Lady D?
- 9:31[SPEAKER_01]: Deanna, thank you so much as always and as usual I agree with your reasoning and logic here because you're not using emotion you're looking at things logically unlike a lot of other fans in the fan base, but dream and I don't think it's that implausible for me it be JJ out Minnesota he keeps talking about how.
- 9:48[SPEAKER_01]: a car thesis quarterback right now we hear the whispers that he's not super long for Minnesota It's probably not gonna happen and not holding my breath, but JJ would be number one But I love jail and water in Miami.
- 10:00[SPEAKER_01]: I like Drake London.
- 10:01[SPEAKER_01]: I like Chris O'Lave There's so many other receivers Garrett Wilson in New York There's so many receivers the Brock is portrayed for and Danna I encourage George Peyton to pick up the phone for each and every single one and try to make a deal
- 10:14[SPEAKER_02]: No doubt.
- 10:14[SPEAKER_02]: There's some interesting options out there.
- 10:16[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, even in the draft, there's some really intriguing options.
- 10:20[SPEAKER_02]: Today I did a kind of post Super Bowl, three round mock kept it very simple.
- 10:25[SPEAKER_02]: Just three rounds and KC concept C on concept C on.
- 10:31[SPEAKER_02]: from Texas A&M.
- 10:34[SPEAKER_02]: Guys, if you have not spent some time watching that dude or if you didn't watch him at all this last season with the Aggies, he's really interesting to me Zack.
- 10:42[SPEAKER_02]: He's not a big, you know, 63 plus guy like Sutton and Pat Bryant, Lil Jordan Humphrey.
- 10:50[SPEAKER_02]: He's more in the mold of size wise, Marvin Mims.
- 10:54[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe a little bit bigger, super explosive off the ball, short area burst.
- 11:01[SPEAKER_02]: You can use deep go up and get it burn past people.
- 11:06[SPEAKER_02]: He's a guy that creates yards after the catch and if you were to draft him and that's about where he's fallen right now is back end of round one
- 11:13[SPEAKER_02]: If the Broncos were to get him there at 30, one of the other exciting things he would bring to the table is his returner chops, both as a punt returner, kick returner.
- 11:22[SPEAKER_02]: So you could have Marvin Mims and KC as your kick returners and then graduate Marvin Mims to offense only and let the rookie or KC become your punt returner moving forward because he's that good.
- 11:38[SPEAKER_01]: To me it'd be better than using the number one pick on a defensive back when you have offensive priorities, but that would seem like the the less than optimal move It seemed like it would the Broncos will be rolling the dice similar to this season and hoping one of their younger lottery tickets pays off I think Bonyx has earned the right to play with a no doubt Provin's stud wide receiver one who's not gonna take any time to develop Not gonna have any adjustment to the NFL and is ready to go from day one They want to acquire a veteran and draft conception you own fine, but
- 12:07[SPEAKER_01]: putting all your eggs into a rookie's basket to me.
- 12:10[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
- 12:11[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, putting all your eggs for sure.
- 12:14[SPEAKER_02]: But like, I don't know.
- 12:16[SPEAKER_02]: The Broncos have to get bone-nix more weapons and credit to them.
- 12:22[SPEAKER_02]: They're version.
- 12:23[SPEAKER_02]: These first couple years of bows career of building the nest.
- 12:27[SPEAKER_02]: Zach has been
- 12:29[SPEAKER_02]: Making sure that offensive line is solid good and paid and locked up.
- 12:34[SPEAKER_02]: And then also keeping the core pieces of what has been one of the top five defenses in the NFL the last two years in place.
- 12:41[SPEAKER_02]: That's obviously helped Bo make a lot of hay at quarterback, but between wide receiver, Zack in between running back, tight end.
- 12:49[SPEAKER_02]: All those things when he has to be the guide that is responsible for the entirety of your passing game and the guy who you expect to move the chains on the ground.
- 12:58[SPEAKER_02]: kind of blows up in your face as you saw Zach, unfortunately, in the in the division around.
- 13:04[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, it's crazy.
- 13:06[SPEAKER_02]: So guys, the Jacksonville Jaguars led the NFL in drops last season.
- 13:11[SPEAKER_02]: They had 45.
- 13:12[SPEAKER_02]: The Broncos were second with 43.
- 13:16[SPEAKER_02]: No other team had more than 30 drops, just the jags, just the Broncos.
- 13:23[SPEAKER_02]: Jaguar's drop rate 8% Broncos drop rate 7%.
- 13:27[SPEAKER_02]: So it's obviously a key area of a key focus for improvement this off-season Zach, the coaching change points to that quite obviously.
- 13:38[SPEAKER_02]: And let's hope, I mean,
- 13:43[SPEAKER_02]: I'm guessing at least half of them would have moved the chains.
- 13:46[SPEAKER_02]: How many of them would have been touchdowns?
- 13:47[SPEAKER_02]: You know, you start going what, how much meat is being left on the bone with that high volume of drops, and you realize why Sean Payton's just like unacceptable.
- 13:58[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, to be fair to sudden, it's also a little Jordan Humphrey dropping touchdown passes, easy touchdown passes.
- 14:03[SPEAKER_01]: It's Troy Franklin, Bobbling screen passes, Chad, and even Pat Bryan had some issues at times.
- 14:10[SPEAKER_01]: It's the entire receiving core, and that's also why I'm happy Sean Payton did fire Kerry Colbert as looking to upgrade the coaching there, but that's also why you want to know about proven guy that you're not going to have to worry about this happening to.
- 14:23[SPEAKER_02]: Love you, lady, D William.
- 14:25[SPEAKER_02]: He's got himself a new guitar hole on.
- 14:27[SPEAKER_02]: I got to hear about this real quick.
- 14:29[SPEAKER_02]: What is it?
- 14:29[SPEAKER_02]: It's a jazz master, fender jazz master, nice.
- 14:33[SPEAKER_02]: Dude, I had that one.
- 14:34[SPEAKER_02]: I had the Troy Van Loone.
- 14:35[SPEAKER_02]: I had that.
- 14:37[SPEAKER_02]: The jazz master is the only Fender guitar that speaks to you.
- 14:42[SPEAKER_02]: Boy, I'm more of a Gibson guy, but I, so I own one, I used to own two.
- 14:47[SPEAKER_02]: One of them was one of these ox blood, Troy Van Loons.
- 14:50[SPEAKER_02]: I ended up selling that one just because I only needed one.
- 14:53[SPEAKER_02]: But that's really cool.
- 14:55[SPEAKER_02]: Dude, congrats on that.
- 14:56[SPEAKER_02]: Stoke for you.
- 14:57[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, what did he say here?
- 14:59[SPEAKER_02]: What did he say here couldn't pass it up man those guitars are going for two grand right now got my news for twelve hundred that's a pretty good price that's a pretty good price Congrats to you on that my brother uh Zach what about David and joku taught Austin dwarf jumping in a deer member says and joku would be nice a nice ad and would give us options i wonder how much more productive the passing game would be with in joku
- 15:24[SPEAKER_02]: What do you think, yeah?
- 15:25[SPEAKER_02]: Cause I have my doubts on just how impactful Titan would be for whatever reason.
- 15:30[SPEAKER_02]: It's just not where Boneyx likes to look.
- 15:33[SPEAKER_02]: And maybe that changes as he develops.
- 15:35[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe it has something to do with the personnel.
- 15:38[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know, but I'm a little bit more focused on wide receiver and running back one than I am Titan.
- 15:48[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I feel like we talked about him on, what's it?
- 15:50[SPEAKER_01]: Wednesday, now on Monday, I mentioned him on KK yesterday taught, I mean, most players that you're going to bring up here.
- 15:56[SPEAKER_01]: Most of them, I would say, bring him on down, because Bo and Nixon needs the help.
- 15:59[SPEAKER_01]: Bo and Nixon deserves the help.
- 16:01[SPEAKER_01]: And I said on yesterday's show that the joke was basically like Evan Ingram, but a better version, a more productive version.
- 16:07[SPEAKER_01]: I think he has more left of the tank.
- 16:09[SPEAKER_01]: He's a better inline blocker.
- 16:11[SPEAKER_01]: If you recall, the 2024 Broncos Brown's game,
- 16:16[SPEAKER_01]: two touchdowns over 100 yards.
- 16:18[SPEAKER_01]: I like some of them since he was coming out of Miami.
- 16:20[SPEAKER_01]: He's really just solid all around tight in.
- 16:22[SPEAKER_01]: There are some injury concerns, but I feel like at worst, you'd be net neutral and at best, obviously, you'd be net positive swapping, Evan Ingraham out for David and Joku.
- 16:32[SPEAKER_01]: I wouldn't mind this option at all.
- 16:34[SPEAKER_02]: The one thing that's different that Enjoku would bring to the table is he could offer you genuine
- 16:44[SPEAKER_02]: When Evan Ingraham's on the field, they do the best they can to occasionally call some run plays with him on the field, so it's not such an obvious tell, but a opponent's know more often than not, if Evan Ingraham's on the field, it's a pass.
- 16:59[SPEAKER_02]: And Joker can line up in line, and he can block.
- 17:03[SPEAKER_02]: And he can run around right and he can catch it.
- 17:05[SPEAKER_02]: He's pretty explosive with the ball in his hand.
- 17:07[SPEAKER_02]: And so that puts the defense in a little bit less advantageous position in terms of anticipating what's coming.
- 17:15[SPEAKER_02]: And so that's what the Broncos of lack.
- 17:16[SPEAKER_02]: The guy they've been using Zack is their wide tight end.
- 17:19[SPEAKER_02]: It's Adam Troutman.
- 17:21[SPEAKER_02]: just because he gives it the old college try-up blocking doesn't mean he's any good at it.
- 17:26[SPEAKER_02]: He's not.
- 17:26[SPEAKER_02]: Like he is a liability.
- 17:28[SPEAKER_02]: Now you can use him in there as a chipper and survive it.
- 17:32[SPEAKER_02]: But if you're expecting him's act to seal the edge or get any push to the second level, whatever,
- 17:38[SPEAKER_02]: That's not his bag and we know what he brings as a receiver, like about his average of an NFL tight end receiver tight end as there is.
- 17:46[SPEAKER_02]: So, but if you had a guy who's at least passable in that respect, which in joke who's become a very competent blocker, and then can also be explosive, that's something new that we haven't seen from a Broncos tight end sent champagne guy here.
- 18:00[SPEAKER_01]: And for anyone who doesn't know, I mean, people are judging him because he put out a statement saying he basically wants out a Cleveland, which is his right.
- 18:07[SPEAKER_01]: He's been there this whole career.
- 18:08[SPEAKER_01]: He deserves to play for a contender.
- 18:10[SPEAKER_01]: But he's a very team first guy.
- 18:12[SPEAKER_01]: He was jumping up and down with Miles Garrett broke the sack record.
- 18:15[SPEAKER_01]: He's been all about the Browns, all about Cleveland hasn't been in trouble.
- 18:18[SPEAKER_01]: He's a really interesting candidate to watch for the Broncos to pick up in 2026.
- 18:23[SPEAKER_02]: Yep, free agent.
- 18:25[SPEAKER_02]: By the way, free agent.
- 18:26[SPEAKER_02]: So he's he's saying, I'm out of here Cleveland and he's not as old real quick before we grab bookmeister.
- 18:33[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, wow, he's been in the league since 2017's act.
- 18:38[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going, wow, but he's actually not that old.
- 18:41[SPEAKER_02]: He's going to turn 30 this off season.
- 18:43[SPEAKER_02]: Like, so anyway, in joke who's interesting, if you could kind of like the deal you got with Evan Ingraham a couple of years, front load, et cetera, something like that for in joke who, and I think the two could coexist, by the way, and maybe even be dangerous together.
- 18:57[SPEAKER_02]: Bookmeister, a dear member, a long time superstar in the house, saying, What's up, big dogs?
- 19:03[SPEAKER_02]: Watching you live and grilling up a steak through life is good at Bookmeister HQ.
- 19:09[SPEAKER_02]: I think Sutton will stay, but as a number two, we need a game breaker.
- 19:13[SPEAKER_02]: As a number one, Justin Jefferson would be nice.
- 19:17[SPEAKER_02]: I just, that would be my make a wish you get the wide receiver.
- 19:28[SPEAKER_02]: not going to happen.
- 19:29[SPEAKER_02]: Like Minnesota just fired Zach, the GM responsible even though it was a year later.
- 19:35[SPEAKER_02]: Responsible for letting San Donald get out the building, right?
- 19:40[SPEAKER_02]: Like the guy who went and won 14 games for you as a year one starter, you let him go.
- 19:45[SPEAKER_02]: he ended up paying for his job a year later.
- 19:47[SPEAKER_02]: That same guy like now what you're going to you're going to he's gone, but whoever comes in next or whoever's left is going to then trade their best personnel asset.
- 19:58[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think so like Cold day in Hellzac before JJ gets gets moved out of Minnesota in my opinion.
- 20:05[SPEAKER_01]: I agree.
- 20:06[SPEAKER_01]: It's highly unlikely.
- 20:07[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, we're kind of in coach to never say never in the NFL news who play in it those who cover crazier things have happened for sure, but that's the ultimate dream though.
- 20:17[SPEAKER_01]: And until it's confirmed that he's staying in Minnesota, it's confirmed that the Broncos are interested.
- 20:22[SPEAKER_01]: One of those two scenarios, a majority of Broncos countries going to wish that JJ played in Denver, but there's other receivers like we talked about that the Broncos can aim for that are not in JJ's tier, but
- 20:33[SPEAKER_01]: one step below it.
- 20:35[SPEAKER_01]: That would be a monumental upgrade on Sutton as a number one.
- 20:38[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you, Boogie.
- 20:40[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's great to see you big dog.
- 20:42[SPEAKER_02]: Appreciate you checking in Cody dub in the house.
- 20:44[SPEAKER_02]: Another dear member and superstar.
- 20:46[SPEAKER_02]: Hope the young families doing well, big dog.
- 20:49[SPEAKER_02]: He says Sutton with 2000 yard seasons plug in JJ, 1400 plus.
- 20:53[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it would be great, dude.
- 20:56[SPEAKER_02]: It would be great to have a Justin Jefferson, it's just not going to happen.
- 21:00[SPEAKER_02]: It's just so unfeasible, like even, I mean, I guess if you're going to talk about such things that I can dream and project and speculate, this is the time to do it.
- 21:11[SPEAKER_02]: The off season, that month leading up to the opening of the newly gear, but it's just so improbable.
- 21:18[SPEAKER_02]: By the way, Sutton has three career
- 21:26[SPEAKER_02]: coincides by the way Zach with Bonex is a rival.
- 21:30[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm more so think and and thank you Cody for the super.
- 21:33[SPEAKER_01]: It would Bonex is done with this in his first two seasons is been remarkable setting franchise records and setting NFL records.
- 21:40[SPEAKER_01]: The number one sea division title winning a playoff game taken the Broncos to the AFC title game and he's done that with really
- 21:48[SPEAKER_01]: barely one legitimate weapon in Portland, Sutton, and really with the lack of a running game except for half the season with JK Dobbins.
- 21:56[SPEAKER_01]: It's just so enticing and tantalizing the think about, Chad, if you plug a JJ in, if you plug a breeze all in, if you plug a David and Joku in, what Bonyx could be.
- 22:05[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I care about, how good Bonyx could be and how good he's already been.
- 22:10[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it's crazy to think about because he's been so productive and prolific up to this point through just two years, how much greater could he get if you give him more weapons, you know, and that's, that's really all that's left here.
- 22:24[SPEAKER_02]: The Broncos have done a great job rebuilding this roster.
- 22:27[SPEAKER_02]: There's good as anyone in the NFL.
- 22:30[SPEAKER_02]: They have all the core pieces that got the franchise quarterback, the left tackle, the
- 22:39[SPEAKER_02]: But they're missing out on that twitchy explosive thing at wide receiver running back one RJ Harvey, no, to quote you, never say never, you can't rule it out, but I just don't think he's going to become a carry the load kind of guy.
- 22:54[SPEAKER_02]: And I still am very interested in bringing back JK Dobbins, but he should not be the plan at RB1.
- 23:02[SPEAKER_02]: You know, go after a, uh, breeze hall, who, by the way, the ESPN beat writer there in New York said wouldn't be surprised if the jets apply one of the tags to him whether it's a franchise tag to breeze hall or the transition tag and uh,
- 23:17[SPEAKER_02]: perhaps try to trade him or kind of walker.
- 23:20[SPEAKER_02]: I wrote about him this morning, is that Kenneth Walker is really interesting, exciting guy.
- 23:24[SPEAKER_02]: So they just got to get more proven bona fide talent behind bow and watch how much higher he can climb.
- 23:32[SPEAKER_02]: DJ Capo in the house, good to see you big dog.
- 23:35[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you for the super.
- 23:37[SPEAKER_02]: He says, Sutton and Evan Ingraham need to be traded for picks.
- 23:40[SPEAKER_02]: Whoa, him and Ingraham didn't show up when needed the most.
- 23:44[SPEAKER_02]: Pierce Hall, Judarian Price, I think would be a great price is really interesting.
- 23:52[SPEAKER_02]: He was my second round pick in my little three round mock today.
- 23:55[SPEAKER_02]: And as a guy who played behind Jeremiah love, you know, he was the second fiddle there.
- 24:02[SPEAKER_02]: But his touchdown rate, I mean, he had at Notre Dame's
- 24:15[SPEAKER_02]: No, yeah, like 280 total touches from Scrimmage and he had 24 touchdowns.
- 24:20[SPEAKER_02]: So he's like basically giving you a touchdown every 10 touches.
- 24:25[SPEAKER_02]: Very interesting guy, but I'm not really here for trying to move on from Sutton for what it's worth DJ.
- 24:30[SPEAKER_02]: Ingram, I'm at a kind of take it or leave a point, Zach.
- 24:33[SPEAKER_02]: What are your thoughts for DJ Capital?
- 24:35[SPEAKER_01]: You're not going to get any draft picks back for Evan Ingram.
- 24:38[SPEAKER_01]: You might, a midteron, middle round pick for Cortland Sutton, but I don't see those options as feasible for the Broncos.
- 24:45[SPEAKER_01]: You're talking about Alec Pierce.
- 24:46[SPEAKER_01]: There's a high probability that the Colts retain Alec Pierce.
- 24:49[SPEAKER_01]: And even then, even if he gets to the free agent market, I would want Denver to aim a little higher than Alec Pierce.
- 24:55[SPEAKER_01]: We've mentioned like five or six other receivers.
- 24:57[SPEAKER_01]: that they should and could go after.
- 24:59[SPEAKER_01]: Breeze, although I agree with you, Chad mentioned Kenneth Walker, Alfred Tyler, Algear from Atlanta.
- 25:05[SPEAKER_01]: That's, he's been a starter in waiting for the last couple of seasons.
- 25:08[SPEAKER_01]: I think he'd be dynamite in a Sean Payton system.
- 25:12[SPEAKER_02]: One really interesting thing about Pierce is his yards per catch.
- 25:17[SPEAKER_02]: Number is really, really high.
- 25:21[SPEAKER_02]: But I mean, look, last season was Zach his career year in terms of total production, 47 receptions got him a thousand yards because he averaged 21.3 yards per catch six touchdowns.
- 25:36[SPEAKER_02]: So he gave you basically Zach.
- 25:39[SPEAKER_02]: The yardage of Cortland Sutton in the touchdowns with what, two thirds at two thirds the amount of receptions basically, he's interesting.
- 25:49[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's a great way to put it, Zach.
- 25:51[SPEAKER_02]: He can't be that he couldn't be the totality of what you do to kind of shake things up in the receiver room, but he would be a nice piece to add.
- 25:58[SPEAKER_02]: He would definitely help you downfield game.
- 26:01[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you're looking to not only upgrade the ceiling capo, but also the floor of the receiver room and Pierce definitely would do that.
- 26:08[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm not going to cry if the broadcast end up signing him absolutely not.
- 26:11[SPEAKER_02]: DJ again jumps in.
- 26:12[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you, brother.
- 26:13[SPEAKER_02]: Saying if you look for if you're looking for speed, get Rashid's Shaheed for three speed.
- 26:19[SPEAKER_02]: Similar to what I was saying about concept she owned, if you brought in Rashid, Shahid's you know, he could help you as a receiver definitely, but he could also take over the returner duties, especially at part returner.
- 26:33[SPEAKER_02]: allowing Marvin Mims to be more of a factor on offense and I mean, it's crazy to think that a lot of Denver's problems or deficiencies at wide receiver.
- 26:44[SPEAKER_02]: I think a lot of them, I'm not saying all of them, but a lot of them could be solved by
- 26:50[SPEAKER_02]: pushing Marvin Mimms forward in the scheme, like making him more of a point of emphasis, I don't know why it hasn't.
- 26:57[SPEAKER_02]: The only thing I can figure, we've been talking about this now for a couple of weeks, but the only thing I can figure is that is they don't want to do anything that takes away from his punt returner thing because he's so valuable there, but Shaheed would definitely give you an option there, you know, either or.
- 27:12[SPEAKER_01]: I would really hope that's not the reason because that makes me angry.
- 27:16[SPEAKER_01]: Helping out Bowenix is so much more important than anything, Mims can do on special teams, but I like the way you're thinking here, Capo, because the Broncos need speed and explosion in the receiving court.
- 27:26[SPEAKER_01]: But you have that already for the same reasons, Chad's laid out for quite a while with Marvin Mims.
- 27:31[SPEAKER_01]: You already have one Marvin Mims.
- 27:32[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have to add another one, even if she eats a little bit of a better version of him.
- 27:37[SPEAKER_01]: get nims more involved but also look for that better all around true number one receiver and those are some of the guys that we've talked about already.
- 27:46[SPEAKER_02]: All right.
- 27:49[SPEAKER_02]: DJ, you to man, we got M. Blacks celebrating six months of being a member and a dear member at that.
- 27:56[SPEAKER_02]: Got to hang out with them at the meet and greet.
- 27:58[SPEAKER_02]: He's got some really sick tattoos.
- 28:00[SPEAKER_02]: I must say, and he's also been a huge help on our new discord server guys.
- 28:06[SPEAKER_02]: Join it, by the way, links in the description.
- 28:09[SPEAKER_02]: He says greasy greasy would be amazing in Denver, Breeze Hall, and if they don't sign him, I will over turn
- 28:19[SPEAKER_02]: Well, again, if he hits the, if he hits the open market, I think he's, there's a decent chance the Broncos could pursue him, but I forget his names act the ESPN insider there with the jets rich submitting.
- 28:33[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 28:34[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 28:34[SPEAKER_02]: He's the one saying, I think that's what they're going to do is franchise tag more transition to so the franchise tag would put him somewhere around.
- 28:44[SPEAKER_02]: 14 and a half million for one year.
- 28:47[SPEAKER_02]: The transition tag would be like 117, 11.7 million.
- 28:52[SPEAKER_02]: And it would offer him a couple of benefits.
- 28:57[SPEAKER_02]: Zach, number one, if they were trying to keep him in New York long term, gives him the no one else can really negotiate.
- 29:04[SPEAKER_02]: He's tagged and you can
- 29:07[SPEAKER_02]: you basically have exclusive shot at getting something done for a long term or at the very least keep another teams away.
- 29:13[SPEAKER_02]: And then the other thing is if you were interested to try and capitalize on on some picks and trades, I mean, that's how you do it.
- 29:22[SPEAKER_02]: Otherwise, he walks for nothing.
- 29:25[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't think they're running back, and especially, or including Brace Hall, I should say, is more important than another receiver for Bonyx, but I think it's more important than a tight end.
- 29:34[SPEAKER_01]: Like we were talking about earlier, and he is the number one guy on my off season list at running back test prep.
- 29:40[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm right there with you.
- 29:41[SPEAKER_01]: I wouldn't quite react the same way if they don't sign them, but I do want the Broncos to look his way.
- 29:45[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
- 29:46[SPEAKER_02]: DJ Capo saying, yes, a green there, Zach.
- 29:50[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you, pal.
- 29:51[SPEAKER_02]: Three supers tonight, bro, you to man.
- 29:54[SPEAKER_02]: We've got smiles in the house.
- 29:56[SPEAKER_02]: uh, becoming a YouTube member.
- 29:59[SPEAKER_02]: I thought you were already were a member, but nevertheless, dude, thank you so much for your support going back many, many years.
- 30:05[SPEAKER_02]: And now a bonafide YouTuber in your own right dude.
- 30:09[SPEAKER_02]: So proud of you and stoked for you.
- 30:11[SPEAKER_02]: But thank you for for doing that big dog.
- 30:13[SPEAKER_02]: We need we definitely could use this support this time of year.
- 30:16[SPEAKER_02]: That is faux show.
- 30:18[SPEAKER_02]: And yes, Shannon, Marvin Mims could make a huge difference if he's given the chance and he's
- 30:26[SPEAKER_02]: Who was it that said this?
- 30:29[SPEAKER_02]: I think it was Evan Ingraham, let it slip.
- 30:32[SPEAKER_02]: He was being asked about Marvin Mims.
- 30:35[SPEAKER_02]: The day after the Broncos lost to the Patriots, the seasons over, they're clearing out their lockers.
- 30:40[SPEAKER_02]: He gets asked about Mims and he made a comment because of course he had to, he was basically the entire offense that day right against the Patriots and that lost.
- 30:48[SPEAKER_02]: So he was very front of brain and Evan Ingraham to paraphrase and said something in the effect of, you know, really proud of what he's done and I know kind of a little bit of a disappointing season for him because he was going with going through some things with his body.
- 31:04[SPEAKER_02]: Well, the only injury that I can recall Zach, he was on the injury report for was that concussion that he suffered at the end of week eight, which I think cost him two games.
- 31:14[SPEAKER_02]: Other than that, there was nothing else
- 31:17[SPEAKER_02]: I'm aware of.
- 31:18[SPEAKER_02]: So maybe that could have played a role, but I don't think so because we are already halfway through the season before that happens there.
- 31:24[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think you hit on it earlier.
- 31:26[SPEAKER_01]: It's just a Sean Peyton thing.
- 31:27[SPEAKER_01]: We all know by now how stubborn Sean Peyton is and when he gets something in his head, it's really hard to move him off of that and what he got in his head was that Marvin Mims is a gadget player, a utility player.
- 31:38[SPEAKER_01]: He's not a legitimate long term starting receiver and that's unfortunate.
- 31:43[SPEAKER_02]: uh... Zachary says just wanted to become a full member rock gave me a free membership a couple times did that so cool thank you rock thank you Zachary and lady d by the way thank you she's jumping in again with a very generous super chat
- 31:58[SPEAKER_02]: love you so much, Diana.
- 31:59[SPEAKER_02]: She says, my opinion, we need to go all out on the offensive side to show up, bow, but also give him consistent players.
- 32:07[SPEAKER_02]: He can target Mims needs to be utilized the right way.
- 32:12[SPEAKER_02]: Jay, uh, Jekwann McMillan needs to be locked down to just can't wait for the trades to begin evening all.
- 32:19[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 32:20[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, that's going to start here pretty soon.
- 32:22[SPEAKER_02]: That kind of stuff, Zach.
- 32:27[SPEAKER_02]: Pretty sure it's Jekwon, not Jekwon, the pronunciation guide, we get anyway.
- 32:33[SPEAKER_02]: He is a restricted free agent, so he's not about to leave the Broncos at worst.
- 32:39[SPEAKER_02]: Well, tender him, Zach, probably on the second round level, which would give him something like a three and a half to four million dollar one year salary in Denver.
- 32:50[SPEAKER_02]: But do you see them perhaps trying to work something out to keep him here on a multi-year deal?
- 32:57[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, George Peyton even talked about that in the season ending press conference.
- 33:01[SPEAKER_01]: He says we're going to keep it in house, but he recognized all that McMillian did in the postseason.
- 33:07[SPEAKER_01]: He was arguably the Broncos best defensive back in the playoffs.
- 33:10[SPEAKER_01]: And I've been saying it for weeks and a lot of Broncos fans have as well.
- 33:14[SPEAKER_01]: to be fair that just extend him.
- 33:16[SPEAKER_01]: Don't let him even get to RFA status.
- 33:18[SPEAKER_01]: Don't bother tagging him for one season.
- 33:21[SPEAKER_01]: Just lock him down.
- 33:22[SPEAKER_01]: He's earned the deal.
- 33:23[SPEAKER_01]: You're not going to bring back JFM more than likely.
- 33:25[SPEAKER_01]: So you'll have some cash to free up on defense.
- 33:28[SPEAKER_01]: Give it to J-Quand.
- 33:29[SPEAKER_01]: I agree with you, Deanna.
- 33:30[SPEAKER_01]: And thank you so much, as always.
- 33:32[SPEAKER_02]: Love you so much.
- 33:33[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, look, Beau needs a few more weapons.
- 33:37[SPEAKER_02]: And I don't quite understand Zack why it's taken this long.
- 33:43[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I guess in fairness, he's looked back at last year, free agency, they spent on Evan Neangrum, that kind of ended up, I don't know if I'd qualify at Zach as a fail because he did finish third on the team and receiving it's not like he was a complete
- 33:59[SPEAKER_02]: non-factor.
- 34:00[SPEAKER_02]: They signed Trent Scherfield, even then we kind of knew he was going to be more of a special teams addition, but wide receiver.
- 34:08[SPEAKER_02]: They draft RJ Harvey.
- 34:10[SPEAKER_02]: They draft Pat Bryant.
- 34:12[SPEAKER_02]: They then a few months later, right before the end of mandatory minicant, they signed JK Dombs.
- 34:20[SPEAKER_02]: So they did make some additions to the offensive side of the ball.
- 34:23[SPEAKER_02]: It's not like they've
- 34:28[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they just nickel and dime, they got what was on the clearance rack.
- 34:33[SPEAKER_01]: They went to goodwill for their offensive weaponry.
- 34:36[SPEAKER_01]: You need to go to the luxury stores and get the luxury brands for bull nicks because he deserves it.
- 34:42[SPEAKER_01]: He's laid out everything for the Broncos.
- 34:44[SPEAKER_01]: He's their franchise quarterback.
- 34:45[SPEAKER_01]: He's proven that over the last two seasons.
- 34:48[SPEAKER_01]: Now the Broncos need to turn around and help bow out.
- 34:51[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 34:52[SPEAKER_02]: There you have it.
- 34:53[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you, lady D. Love you.
- 34:55[SPEAKER_02]: And another guy that is very interesting in this class Zach Alger from the Atlanta Falcons talking about running backs, but he's not exactly going to come cheap.
- 35:07[SPEAKER_02]: And as Scott also points out here, probably the most expensive back the Broncos would have paid if they were to sign him since Melvin Gordon, which back then, what was it?
- 35:17[SPEAKER_02]: Zack, two years, 16 million.
- 35:19[SPEAKER_02]: I think is what they signed him for back then.
- 35:21[SPEAKER_02]: So eight million a year, what do you think of running back in this running back free agent class?
- 35:27[SPEAKER_02]: They're probably going to be pushing for 10, 11 million per year.
- 35:30[SPEAKER_02]: It's something like that.
- 35:33[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, probably in that range, it tends to go up every year.
- 35:36[SPEAKER_01]: And then someone, a team like the Broncos with Algear, they're going to pay notches for what he's done, but what he can do going forward.
- 35:43[SPEAKER_01]: You're paying on potential.
- 35:44[SPEAKER_01]: And like I mentioned, he's been, and I know this firsthand because I've stashed Algear on my fantasy teams, hoping B-John would get hurt, secretly or whatever would happen in Atlanta to make Algear the starter.
- 35:55[SPEAKER_01]: And it just never happened, but every time I watched him play, it was a productive carry, it was a hard run.
- 36:00[SPEAKER_01]: He was falling forward.
- 36:02[SPEAKER_01]: busting out for a touchdown.
- 36:04[SPEAKER_01]: He's going to get a substantial amount and you can argue whether he hasn't done anything to deserve that to this point in time, but you're paying for what he's going to do for you in the future.
- 36:13[SPEAKER_01]: And a young running back with not a lot of carry on their tires, that could be a lot.
- 36:18[SPEAKER_02]: No doubt, no doubt about it.
- 36:20[SPEAKER_02]: But Algier is a very sneaky potential target.
- 36:24[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he's not a guy that is as front of brain for a lot of fans because he was playing behind Bijon.
- 36:31[SPEAKER_02]: And but dude, he is a beast just waiting for his opportunity.
- 36:35[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he could be the next Michael Turner, so to speak.
- 36:38[SPEAKER_02]: Like a guy who's buried behind one of the greats of his year a running backs in San Diego.
- 36:45[SPEAKER_02]: Finally, gets his chance to be a free agent.
- 36:47[SPEAKER_02]: Science goes to Atlanta and becomes a proble, right?
- 36:49[SPEAKER_02]: 1500 yard seasons like it could be that.
- 36:52[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not predicting it per se, but he's a very good backset.
- 36:57[SPEAKER_01]: very.
- 36:57[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I would like him to also his act, Charbon A and Seattle, who tore his ACL of him playing the Super Bowl, but that there's some players around the league that look Jonah Ellis and Denver chat as a backup.
- 37:08[SPEAKER_01]: There's some backups that there's situation.
- 37:10[SPEAKER_01]: It's a numbers game, but if they were on another team, they would be a no-down starter.
- 37:14[SPEAKER_01]: Algear as a running back is one of those guys.
- 37:17[SPEAKER_02]: By the way, as a rookie, breaks the Falcons rookie rushing record goes over a thousand yards in 2022.
- 37:23[SPEAKER_02]: This past season behind B. John, he rushes for 500 yards and eight touchdowns.
- 37:29[SPEAKER_02]: Yards per carry was the lowest of his career, but he comes in with a very healthy career average Zach of 4.3.
- 37:37[SPEAKER_02]: So he's one of those guys that
- 37:41[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know, do you want to go try and spend 15 million per year on Breeze Hall or Kenneth Walker or go get a guy like Algier, Pam 10 11 million per year.
- 37:52[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see how it all shakes out.
- 37:53[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see if Seattle lets Kenneth Walker get out of town.
- 37:56[SPEAKER_02]: Like that might not happen either.
- 37:59[SPEAKER_01]: Well, my plan would be I'm going to see if I can sign Breeze Hall and if I can I'm going to see if I can sign can if Walker and if I can't I'm going to see if I can sign tower else you're in if I can't I'm going to see if I can resign JK Dobbins and we'll we'll reassess from there.
- 38:12[SPEAKER_02]: All right, guys.
- 38:13[SPEAKER_02]: We'll grab this one here from Taylor Christianson.
- 38:15[SPEAKER_02]: We're about out of time tonight.
- 38:17[SPEAKER_02]: Taylor, brother.
- 38:17[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you, pal.
- 38:18[SPEAKER_02]: Good to see you.
- 38:20[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you for being a dear member.
- 38:21[SPEAKER_02]: He says, hey, trade for DJ Moore.
- 38:24[SPEAKER_02]: He's outclass PS2 at times.
- 38:27[SPEAKER_02]: What do you think of that prospect?
- 38:30[SPEAKER_01]: If he was a free agent, I'd say maybe explore it and throw him a few bucks because like you mentioned Taylor, he has an explosive element to his game.
- 38:39[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not giving up draft capital for him though.
- 38:41[SPEAKER_01]: If I'm going to give up draft picks, I'm going to make it for a Jalen Wattel, Chris O'Lave, Garrett Wilson, someone in that tier.
- 38:47[SPEAKER_01]: DJ Moore is not in that tier.
- 38:49[SPEAKER_01]: He's a lot like Portland Sutton, where just even he's been forced to play a wide receiver one roll, even though ideally he's a wide receiver too.
- 39:00[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this last season in Chicago started all 17 games and surprisingly is one of his, it was actually his, yeah, his least productive year as a pro.
- 39:14[SPEAKER_02]: Isn't that crazy because you saw Caleb Williams that really coming to his own so to speak, but 682 yards and six touchdowns, but yeah, that's a good way to put it a guy cast as a wide receiver one, probably best served as a wide receiver too.
- 39:32[SPEAKER_02]: And there was a time when Cortland Sutton was like a bona fide wide receiver one where he was an explosive guy, that knee injury though, kind of changed that, but he's still very
- 39:43[SPEAKER_02]: He's a very, he's a low-end one, high-end two, and a phenomenal presence, a team leader, culture guy in that locker room.
- 39:53[SPEAKER_02]: So just to reinforce, once again, we got a couple of messages for you.
- 39:57[SPEAKER_02]: We'll take one last look at the chat, but Portland Sutton guys, he's in for the long haul.
