- 0:00Speaker 1: Let's just get you caught up on what's going on
- 0:01Speaker 1: with the Seahawks today, and then a couple of their
- 0:03Speaker 1: neighbors in the NFC West, and Hughan Millon's going to
- 0:05Speaker 1: join us in a second. Here's what's going on with
- 0:07Speaker 1: the Seahawks. Kobe Bryant three years, forty mil, twelve bonus,
- 0:11Speaker 1: twelve point five guaranteed this year. But Kobe Bryant's going
- 0:14Speaker 1: to the Chicago Bears for a big, big ticket, the
- 0:17Speaker 1: bigger ticket. Ken Walker becomes the highest paid free agent
- 0:21Speaker 1: running back in NFL history. Twenty eight guarantee, three year,
- 0:25Speaker 1: forty five million. Again, these all become official on Wednesday,
- 0:30Speaker 1: all right, They become official on Wednesday. But all the
- 0:33Speaker 1: legal tampering, if we want to call it, that is
- 0:35Speaker 1: underway right now. Yeah, I mean, but they haven't signed
- 0:39Speaker 1: this sign of Wednesday. I just want to just be clear.
- 0:43Speaker 1: It's all agreed upon. Signings come on Wednesday, which is
- 0:46Speaker 1: really dumb because we'll do forty eight hours of this
- 0:48Speaker 1: and then the signings happen on Wednesday.
- 0:49Speaker 2: By then everything's done.
- 0:50Speaker 1: When free agers it gets here, all right, So those
- 0:53Speaker 1: are the Seahawks that are gone. Josh Job is back,
- 0:56Speaker 1: he's back with Seattle three years, twenty four million. So
- 0:59Speaker 1: they oz so far Bryant and Walker. They retain Josh
- 1:04Speaker 1: Job and as of right now, I don't see anything
- 1:07Speaker 1: else out there. Andrews do me a really big favorite
- 1:09Speaker 1: to have you on. Thank you very much, Same with you,
- 1:11Speaker 1: Jess Okay. NFC West, your neighbors in the West, the
- 1:15Speaker 1: toughest division in football. Here's what you need to know.
- 1:18Speaker 1: What's happened out here. San Francisco's added wide receiver Mike
- 1:21Speaker 1: Evans from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Nice ad if healthy
- 1:25Speaker 1: impact player, wasn't healthy last year when he was impact player.
- 1:29Speaker 1: He goes to San Francisco keeping in mind. And I
- 1:31Speaker 1: checked with Lund this morning. I remember that George Kittle
- 1:35Speaker 1: obviously different position, he's a tight end, but he's still
- 1:37Speaker 1: kind of the biggest pass threat sometimes with all the
- 1:39Speaker 1: gong shows they've had with their wide receivers the last
- 1:41Speaker 1: couple of years, I Yuke, thanks for coming, et cetera,
- 1:43Speaker 1: et cetera. With Kittle, Kittles tore that Achilles in the
- 1:46Speaker 1: playoffs against Seattle. They expect him, Len said, probably in
- 1:52Speaker 1: October is the earliest projection for George Kittle.
- 1:55Speaker 2: Right now.
- 1:56Speaker 1: So Evans is a nice ad. Andrews US hockey fans say,
- 2:00Speaker 1: that's cool. You add panerin if you're the Kings, but
- 2:03Speaker 1: you lost Fiala for the season. Yeah, it's good comparison, right,
- 2:05Speaker 1: like it. So it helps them, but if Kittles there,
- 2:08Speaker 1: it helps them even more. But that's a good to
- 2:10Speaker 1: add for them. Arizona Tyler Algier the running back. First
- 2:14Speaker 1: of all, they bring they're bringing back James Connor, hurt
- 2:17Speaker 1: most of the last season. They're bringing him back running
- 2:19Speaker 1: back and they signed Algier. Seems to be kind of
- 2:23Speaker 1: the same type of running back, but they brought him both.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Algier two point Seahawks were interested in it. They were
- 2:28Speaker 1: twelve point two. Yeah, twelve point twenty five over two
- 2:30Speaker 1: years for Algier. La Rams doing work in the secondary.
- 2:33Speaker 1: If you listen to any of our conversations with Great
- 2:35Speaker 1: Coastel this year, he told you over and over again, secondary,
- 2:38Speaker 1: specifically the cornerback position was a big weakness. Well, they
- 2:42Speaker 1: basically just jumped into the state of Washington. You know,
- 2:45Speaker 1: last week they got Trent McDuffie from the Kansas City
- 2:47Speaker 1: Chiefs and in a trade, and today they signed former
- 2:50Speaker 1: Cougar Jalen Wats into a three year, fifty one million
- 2:53Speaker 1: dollar deal. So basically the two best corners for the
- 2:57Speaker 1: Chiefs are now in LA with the Rams. By the way,
- 3:00Speaker 1: can you tell Lazy to get on the phone with
- 3:02Speaker 1: Jalen Watson right now to get some nil money as ap.
- 3:08Speaker 2: JK.
- 3:08Speaker 1: Dobbins goes back to the Broncos. I bring that up
- 3:10Speaker 1: because the running back that could have been on the market, Yes,
- 3:12Speaker 1: and they thought maybe he would hit the market because
- 3:14Speaker 1: they had some depth there last year with what was it?
- 3:18Speaker 3: Is it? R J?
- 3:18Speaker 2: Henry?
- 3:18Speaker 4: Right?
- 3:19Speaker 1: Is that the Harvey Harvey RJ. Harvey who came in
- 3:22Speaker 1: after Dobbins got hurt. But he goes stays with the Broncos,
- 3:25Speaker 1: So take him off the list. Travis ATM goes to
- 3:27Speaker 1: the Saints. Take him off the running back list as well. Okay,
- 3:30Speaker 1: we're somewhat caught up. There's absolutely no possible humanly way
- 3:35Speaker 1: to be completely caught up on this day in the NFL.
- 3:38Speaker 1: But there is a guy I wanted to get on
- 3:40Speaker 1: today because both his perspective as a former player free agency,
- 3:44Speaker 1: he's seen it before, lived it, and also of course
- 3:46Speaker 1: he's our big time analyst. Humillen joint us right now
- 3:50Speaker 1: on this Monday. Hello, sir, how are you?
- 3:53Speaker 5: It's great to be with you. We'll settle the matter
- 3:57Speaker 5: at big time. I don't know, it's.
- 3:59Speaker 2: No you are.
- 4:01Speaker 1: Before we get into before we get into Seahawks, and
- 4:03Speaker 1: and I'm gonna there's a couple of things I want
- 4:05Speaker 1: to ask. I really want to get into something with you,
- 4:07Speaker 1: and that would be Tory Horton, who you know better
- 4:10Speaker 1: than probably anybody outside of maybe your son, who threw
- 4:14Speaker 1: more who frankly threw more passes to him than Sam
- 4:16Speaker 1: Donald has. And so I want to get to that
- 4:17Speaker 1: in a second, because we're going to assume or she
- 4:20Speaker 1: she heat is probably gone. So I want to I
- 4:22Speaker 1: kind of want to angle that a little bit and
- 4:23Speaker 1: have your thoughts on what Horton can be if healthy.
- 4:27Speaker 1: You got traded uh from the Patriots to the Cowboys,
- 4:30Speaker 1: and you've lived through a Super Bowl win before and
- 4:33Speaker 1: seen what can happen in a sense, what perspective do
- 4:36Speaker 1: you have from your experience as a player that you
- 4:38Speaker 1: kind of look at and still still applies today.
- 4:41Speaker 5: Well, I think things have changed. I don't know if
- 4:44Speaker 5: you can coach the same way. Jimmy Johnson, I mean,
- 4:47Speaker 5: it was such an intensity uh in training camp with
- 4:51Speaker 5: respect to the hitting and and I mean there was
- 4:54Speaker 5: nine on seven drills that the players low then they'd
- 4:57Speaker 5: go twenty five minutes and just a meat grinder. But
- 5:00Speaker 5: I think the attitude can apply. When I was traded
- 5:04Speaker 5: from the Patriots, the Cowboys had won the Super Bowl
- 5:07Speaker 5: the year before, the first of three during that Jimmy
- 5:09Speaker 5: Johnson era, and then I was on the team. We
- 5:14Speaker 5: went back to back and my takeaway would be and
- 5:17Speaker 5: I was in the meeting, the very first meeting of
- 5:22Speaker 5: the team since they had been in the locker room
- 5:24Speaker 5: of the Rose Bowl where they had beat the Bills
- 5:28Speaker 5: like fifty two to seventeen whatever that was in the
- 5:31Speaker 5: Super Bowl. And I kind of went into that meeting
- 5:34Speaker 5: thinking everything's going to be just, you know, kind of
- 5:37Speaker 5: touchy feely, just like everything's cool, hey man, you know.
- 5:40Speaker 5: And because it was just a mini camp practice, and
- 5:43Speaker 5: Jimmy Johnson got up there and he just he just
- 5:47Speaker 5: started barking at the team.
- 5:49Speaker 2: He says, hey, don't you dare tell me? Yeah, coach,
- 5:52Speaker 2: you know I can make the play.
- 5:54Speaker 5: You know I can? He says, bull, you know, bs, bs,
- 5:58Speaker 5: you can make the play. I want to see you
- 6:00Speaker 5: make the play today. And he just was like already
- 6:05Speaker 5: preemptively cutting off at the past, any lackadaisical, any resting
- 6:10Speaker 5: on laurels, what have you. And he was demanding that
- 6:14Speaker 5: same focus from the first mini camp practice and and
- 6:19Speaker 5: and you know, my impression is your best players on
- 6:22Speaker 5: that team, you know, Troy, Michael Emmett, you know, Ken Norton,
- 6:27Speaker 5: the best players were the hardest workers.
- 6:30Speaker 2: You know.
- 6:30Speaker 5: And there was other Darren Woodson's who's been knocking on
- 6:32Speaker 5: the door of the Hall of Fame for a long time,
- 6:34Speaker 5: you know. You know, Charles Haley was you know, just
- 6:36Speaker 5: a whack job in his own way. But but but
- 6:40Speaker 5: but and then the oftense. I'm not going to go
- 6:41Speaker 5: through the whole roster, but I'm just sufficing to say
- 6:45Speaker 5: they're their best players were leaders because they were the
- 6:49Speaker 5: hardest workers and they set the tone and of course
- 6:52Speaker 5: Jimmy set the tone. So at any man, Okay, what
- 6:54Speaker 5: what can we take away that for the Seahawks? Uh,
- 6:57Speaker 5: you know, I I just don't believe that things have
- 7:00Speaker 5: changed that much that Mike McDonald can't come in and present,
- 7:05Speaker 5: you know, right from the jump a level of expectation,
- 7:08Speaker 5: a standard of mentality that whatever their standard was last year,
- 7:15Speaker 5: you know, if anything, it's gonna have to raise. So
- 7:18Speaker 5: I think he can bring a little bit of that.
- 7:20Speaker 5: Jimmy Johnson mentality obviously were products of our environment. That
- 7:23Speaker 5: was my environment. I was just observing and what I
- 7:26Speaker 5: saw was extremely impressive because I had been traded from
- 7:30Speaker 5: the Patriots, and there's no way the Cowboys that you know,
- 7:34Speaker 5: should be working harder than the Patriots. The Patriots should
- 7:36Speaker 5: be working harder than the Cowboys, right because but the
- 7:40Speaker 5: reality was the Cowboys were just they they there was
- 7:43Speaker 5: more intensity in how they worked in the offseason. And
- 7:46Speaker 5: and last year the Seahawks, it's been mentioned. I agree
- 7:50Speaker 5: with those who who laud this fact. They had one
- 7:53Speaker 5: hundred percent buying in the off season, one hundred percent
- 7:56Speaker 5: buying on the on the on the non mandatory off
- 8:01Speaker 5: season program. And you know, you know, I hope they
- 8:04Speaker 5: get that again.
- 8:05Speaker 1: Well I've and and listen, Yeah, we have a little
- 8:07Speaker 1: breaking news here that Boy and Mafe is going to
- 8:10Speaker 1: Cincinnati a.
- 8:11Speaker 2: Three year deal.
- 8:12Speaker 1: I don't know any other details about it, but Boy
- 8:14Speaker 1: and Mafe going to Cincinnati with a three year deal,
- 8:17Speaker 1: and I don't think we expected him to be resigned
- 8:18Speaker 1: by Seattle anyway. That's I'll just say this for Cincinnati,
- 8:22Speaker 1: it's a little bit of a drop off from Trey Hendrickson.
- 8:24Speaker 2: So that's just that's that's that's that. That's that. I
- 8:28Speaker 2: think it's interesting you bring him up.
- 8:30Speaker 5: You know, on h on Friday, you know, I was
- 8:35Speaker 5: on with with Softy and with Chuck and Buck, and
- 8:39Speaker 5: I had my list and I said, hey, everybody's everybody's
- 8:45Speaker 5: out except for Josh Job and Josh Jones. That and
- 8:48Speaker 5: I'm not big on predictions, but Mafey is out because
- 8:51Speaker 5: he doesn't hold up against the run.
- 8:52Speaker 2: Of the four.
- 8:53Speaker 5: Guys that are in the Seahawk defensive end rotation, you
- 8:56Speaker 5: got a Nuosu, you got d Law, You've got Derek Hall,
- 9:00Speaker 5: all the younger guys, and Mafay. Of the four, Mafey
- 9:04Speaker 5: is the best speed rusher. He's also the worst at
- 9:08Speaker 5: at the point of attack, holding the edge and and
- 9:13Speaker 5: let me let me, you can just blazon this in granted, okay,
- 9:17Speaker 5: this had put your pencil away, put this in in
- 9:22Speaker 5: sharpie ink or better yet, granted. Mike McDonald values stopping
- 9:27Speaker 5: the run from his defensive ends. More than he values sacks.
- 9:31Speaker 5: If you fall into sacks, that's fine. You have to
- 9:34Speaker 5: set the run. And so you know, you know here
- 9:37Speaker 5: here you you mentioned Trey Hendrickson. There was some thought, Hey,
- 9:40Speaker 5: what see, I'll be interested in in Trey Henderson. They're
- 9:43Speaker 5: not interested in Trey Hendrickson because he doesn't set the
- 9:46Speaker 5: All he does is chase quarterbacks and the only lines
- 9:49Speaker 5: up from the right side of the defense. Like, there's
- 9:51Speaker 5: not that is not what Mike McDonald. I will be
- 9:54Speaker 5: stunned like if there's even remote interest from in Trey Hendrickson.
- 9:59Speaker 5: So Cincinnati, they you know, they've been wrestling with the
- 10:03Speaker 5: Trey Hendrickson, a guy that doesn't set the edge. And
- 10:06Speaker 5: then what do you know, they take the Seattle's of
- 10:08Speaker 5: the four defensive ends, Seattle's worst edgecter now best speed
- 10:12Speaker 5: speed rusher, Twitchy is speed rusher. Yes, but that's not
- 10:16Speaker 5: what what Mike McDonald values out of his ends as
- 10:20Speaker 5: much as as I said, being stout setting that edge.
- 10:24Speaker 5: So so we gotta we gotta really lock in, you know,
- 10:27Speaker 5: to the areas where Mike McDonald is different than thirty
- 10:31Speaker 5: one other coaches and and you know, by extension, thirty
- 10:34Speaker 5: one other general managers.
- 10:36Speaker 1: Well, I think too with I mean, Mafe did what's
- 10:39Speaker 1: the number of anders? Just I'm curious. Three years, sixty million,
- 10:42Speaker 1: million year. Yeah, and again we don't know what's guaranteed.
- 10:44Speaker 1: That's kind of what mattered away much as anything. Yes,
- 10:46Speaker 1: by the way, great news. Remember now, and there's two
- 10:51Speaker 1: points that we have to make in this discussion. Sorry
- 10:53Speaker 1: I interrupted you. Seattle's playing the long game in two regards.
- 10:59Speaker 1: Number one, and this is what I'm getting to is
- 11:03Speaker 1: the comp picks that they're gonna get next year. If
- 11:07Speaker 1: if if this is twenty.
- 11:08Speaker 5: Million, the threshold that pushes you into a third round
- 11:12Speaker 5: pick in a comp. If it's fifteen million, it's a
- 11:16Speaker 5: fourth round. So getting to that twenty million dollar threshold
- 11:20Speaker 5: kicks you from a fourth to a third round or
- 11:22Speaker 5: in compich and don't and this like that's not just
- 11:26Speaker 5: a tangential oh by the way, component to Seattle's game plan.
- 11:32Speaker 5: That essentral to their game plan.
- 11:34Speaker 1: It's also important to note too, as as you mentioned,
- 11:37Speaker 1: you said the words and remember this is next year.
- 11:38Speaker 1: Your compicks are not this year, the next year. Yeah,
- 11:40Speaker 1: so uh it's you know, and ma fe and just
- 11:44Speaker 1: in terms of production from a speed rusher. As you
- 11:46Speaker 1: mentioned two sacks last season, you know.
- 11:49Speaker 2: Yeah, but his win rate was good.
- 11:51Speaker 5: I mean, I mean, you know, I don't I don't
- 11:53Speaker 5: think that the people that make these decisions only look.
- 11:56Speaker 2: At it here. I know that, I know that.
- 11:58Speaker 1: But that's like, that's not a lot of production from sure,
- 12:00Speaker 1: that's just not I mean, at some point, you gotta
- 12:02Speaker 1: put the quarterback on the ground, right, yeah.
- 12:04Speaker 5: Yes, but but in theory you could be creating havoc
- 12:09Speaker 5: and and causing the quarterbacks to move and then he
- 12:12Speaker 5: falls into another, uh, you know, sack that somebody else gets, you.
- 12:16Speaker 1: Know, which I think they did because Williams and Murphy
- 12:18Speaker 1: were the co leaders on the team along the right,
- 12:20Speaker 1: so they got inside and we saw Riley Mills make
- 12:22Speaker 1: a sack in the from the inside in the Super Bowl.
- 12:24Speaker 2: I mean, so that's that's if.
- 12:26Speaker 5: You're look in my opinion, obviously, the most coveted asset
- 12:34Speaker 5: in professional football, really all football is a quarterback who
- 12:38Speaker 5: throws to the right guy at the right time with accuracy.
- 12:42Speaker 2: Right.
- 12:42Speaker 5: Okay, that's the number one, that's the holy grail of football.
- 12:47Speaker 5: The number two attribute in all of football is a
- 12:51Speaker 5: defensive end that can win early in the down, run
- 12:55Speaker 5: the hoop, and win early in the down. That is
- 12:58Speaker 5: this that is the second most impact full trait in
- 13:02Speaker 5: all of football. And so in theory, you get a
- 13:05Speaker 5: defensive end that can consistently and I'm not saying Mafe
- 13:09Speaker 5: could because otherwise you he'd have more value. But but
- 13:12Speaker 5: but I we got to lock into if if that
- 13:16Speaker 5: guy can can early in the down, you know, under
- 13:19Speaker 5: two and a half seconds, force the quarterback to move
- 13:22Speaker 5: off his spot, and he's consistently winning that and making
- 13:26Speaker 5: the quarterback move, then you know it's it's it's you know,
- 13:31Speaker 5: that's like automatically. Once the quarterback has to move due
- 13:35Speaker 5: to that, it's like a picture just handing him a No.
- 13:38Speaker 5: Two pitch when the picture when the batter steps into
- 13:40Speaker 5: the batter's box, like your chance. Uh, once the quarterback moves,
- 13:46Speaker 5: your chance of winning the down goes triples right and
- 13:50Speaker 5: and and it may be that you move because the
- 13:53Speaker 5: defensive end forced you to move, and then you fall
- 13:54Speaker 5: into a sack, or it may maybe it makes you,
- 13:57Speaker 5: you know, throw late in an interception, or maybe may
- 13:59Speaker 5: make you throw late. And it's a checkdown and and
- 14:03Speaker 5: you make the rally, make the tackle, and then the
- 14:05Speaker 5: punters on the field a player too later, Like there's
- 14:07Speaker 5: there's a there's a there's a synchronicity to all of this, right.
- 14:13Speaker 2: Yeah, no, absolutely, absolutely real quick.
- 14:15Speaker 1: Jalen Thompson leaving the Cardinals going to the Cowboys by
- 14:18Speaker 1: the way, uh, part of pretty good tandem in the backfield,
- 14:21Speaker 1: along with the former Husky boot of Baker. So he's
- 14:24Speaker 1: he's going to the Cowboys. Uh, making some money there.
- 14:26Speaker 1: He was a team captain, former koog Uh. So he
- 14:29Speaker 1: leaves the Arizona Cardinals. He We've got about four minutes
- 14:31Speaker 1: here before we'll take a break. We'll have you in
- 14:33Speaker 1: the second segment as well, But I want to just
- 14:34Speaker 1: get this thought from you. What kind of loss is
- 14:38Speaker 1: ken Walker? And how we don't know who they're going
- 14:41Speaker 1: to replace him with. It's you know, names that have
- 14:43Speaker 1: been linked to Seattle are already off the board, whether
- 14:45Speaker 1: it be a guy in the draft, whether it be
- 14:47Speaker 1: another free agent, a trade. Who knows, what do you
- 14:50Speaker 1: think they're looking for as a replacement for ken Walker?
- 14:52Speaker 1: Assuming we're not going to see sharbon at until probably
- 14:56Speaker 1: you know, a couple three weeks into the season.
- 14:59Speaker 5: Every time I hear Charbone in the discussion about Walker. Uh,
- 15:03Speaker 5: for me personally as a fan, as an analyst, I
- 15:08Speaker 5: agree with you a hundred percent. By the way, I
- 15:09Speaker 5: kind of just like recoiled, just a baby, you know,
- 15:13Speaker 5: Like my neck just goes like back about about half
- 15:16Speaker 5: an inch, just a slight little recoil. Because even if
- 15:21Speaker 5: sharbon Ay had never got hurt, right, I would feel
- 15:26Speaker 5: like they are downgrading, Yes, by losing Kenneth Walker, downgrading
- 15:31Speaker 5: at the half back position. That's just that's just my opinion. Now,
- 15:36Speaker 5: let me let me put some numbers to that. So
- 15:41Speaker 5: you had Canine one of only four guys to have
- 15:45Speaker 5: over one hundred rushes in the outside zone, he averaged
- 15:49Speaker 5: five point three. Canine Sharbone had fifty five outside zones,
- 15:54Speaker 5: he was four point five. That's almost a yard difference
- 15:57Speaker 5: inside zone inside zone. Did did you notice I talked
- 16:01Speaker 5: about it a lot the last half of the season.
- 16:04Speaker 5: Ever since Kennedy Paul Amalou kind of took his leave
- 16:08Speaker 5: as the running back coach, they they made some changes
- 16:11Speaker 5: with Canine is outside zone attack angle was wider. He's
- 16:16Speaker 5: inside zone. He lined up a little deeper and he
- 16:19Speaker 5: did it. What what I would would say to football
- 16:21Speaker 5: coaches is lee draw steps where he kind of also
- 16:25Speaker 5: called isosteps, where you start like you're you're going WI
- 16:29Speaker 5: wide and then you come down heel. It gives a
- 16:31Speaker 5: little bit of a delay inside zone. Canine had five
- 16:38Speaker 5: point six yards per attempt on sixty carries. Sharboney had
- 16:42Speaker 5: fifty nine. Right, essentially the same number right, three point three,
- 16:48Speaker 5: so a two point three. Now I understand storty yards
- 16:51Speaker 5: goal line you know is gonna is going to affect
- 16:54Speaker 5: those numbers. But but all you have to do is
- 16:57Speaker 5: just kind of watch the tape. I mean stack box
- 17:00Speaker 5: Canine he had fifty one percent of his runs were
- 17:03Speaker 5: against a stack box. That's a that's a heavy box, right,
- 17:07Speaker 5: a single high component where the defense is trying to
- 17:10Speaker 5: stop the run. Fifty one percent of his his rushes
- 17:14Speaker 5: were against a stack box. Sharbon a fifty point three.
- 17:17Speaker 5: Is there a whole a lot of difference between fifty
- 17:19Speaker 5: one and fifty point three. Yes, that essentially the same carries.
- 17:23Speaker 6: Right.
- 17:24Speaker 5: Canine five point two yards per attempt zach Scharbonay three
- 17:29Speaker 5: point three like.
- 17:31Speaker 2: And it and then the uh.
- 17:36Speaker 5: The number Canine had one in every six point eight
- 17:39Speaker 5: rush attempts was for ten yards or more sharbon a
- 17:43Speaker 5: one in every fifteen point five. So so Canine was
- 17:48Speaker 5: more than twice more than twice as likely to give
- 17:52Speaker 5: you a rush for ten yards or more. And we
- 17:54Speaker 5: don't even get into twenty thirty, forty and fifty yards.
- 17:57Speaker 5: Now we say, why, why am I saying I'm singing
- 18:00Speaker 5: the blues about a guy who's now a Kansas City chief.
- 18:03Speaker 5: I'm just saying that, I'm just putting the brakes on. Okay,
- 18:07Speaker 5: we're fine with Sharbon. Ay, that's not how I feel.
- 18:10Speaker 5: If you're now they've got Kenny McIntosh, he heard his
- 18:14Speaker 5: you know he had a torn a c l uh.
- 18:16Speaker 2: This Vellus Jones shows some promise.
- 18:21Speaker 5: I I think that what is likely to if I
- 18:24Speaker 5: had to bet, if I had to say, pin the
- 18:26Speaker 5: pin the action on the John Schnyder tail or you
- 18:30Speaker 5: know whatever, however you would describe it. How many running
- 18:34Speaker 5: backs have they draft in the second I haven't. I
- 18:35Speaker 5: didn't even look this up, but I know that Canine
- 18:38Speaker 5: was second round, Sharboney was second round, Penny was a
- 18:41Speaker 5: first round, Chris Michael was second red. Was there any others?
- 18:46Speaker 5: I mean Penny was a first rounder. I mean they've
- 18:47Speaker 5: they've gone high round. So so, if if I had
- 18:51Speaker 5: to guess, I think they're going to use a second
- 18:54Speaker 5: rounder on a running back. I don't know who that is.
- 18:57Speaker 5: I'm you know, I generally still the first round guys.
- 19:01Speaker 5: Maybe this year, prior to the draft, I'll peek into
- 19:04Speaker 5: you know, expected second round guys. But I think this
- 19:08Speaker 5: just ask yourself here we talk about Kobe Bryant. You
- 19:11Speaker 5: played Week seventeen. In Week eighteen without Kobe Bryant, and
- 19:17Speaker 5: that was against Carolina and then the deciding game against
- 19:20Speaker 5: the forty nine ers, you were an extremely healthy defense.
- 19:24Speaker 5: In fact, Kobe Bryant was the only player that was out.
- 19:29Speaker 2: And you know.
- 19:31Speaker 5: You showed Tyoe Cottas showed you can win with this guy.
- 19:35Speaker 5: And so to me to say, look, Kobe Bryant.
- 19:41Speaker 6: I.
- 19:43Speaker 2: Really value what he brought.
- 19:44Speaker 5: He was a corner at Cincinnati opposite Sace Gardner. One
- 19:49Speaker 5: of the two won the Thorpe Award for the best
- 19:52Speaker 5: dB in college football, and it wasn't Sauce Gardner. Yeah, like,
- 19:56Speaker 5: there's something about Kobe Bryant, for sure. But I've watched,
- 20:00Speaker 5: I've studied the tape, and I've watched how they play
- 20:03Speaker 5: without Kobe Bryant and I feel like they they can
- 20:06Speaker 5: play to their hot closer to their highest level on
- 20:10Speaker 5: defense without Kobe Bryant, more so than than the Seahawks
- 20:16Speaker 5: offense can play to their highest level without Knine And
- 20:20Speaker 5: and so you know, to me, it's like you gotta
- 20:24Speaker 5: do so. And by the way, by the way, there's
- 20:26Speaker 5: some some guy. Let me, I'm gonna give you a
- 20:29Speaker 5: word or a name rather to remember a J Finley
- 20:36Speaker 5: six foot two, two hundred pound safety. The Seahawks had
- 20:40Speaker 5: twenty four rookies on I mentioned there's two aspects of
- 20:44Speaker 5: the long game. One is playing the comp for twenty
- 20:47Speaker 5: twenty seven, having a net surplus of or I should
- 20:50Speaker 5: say a negative, a net negative in terms of your
- 20:54Speaker 5: free agency. You lose more than you gain. You're gonna
- 20:57Speaker 5: get the comps. And when these guys are signing for
- 20:59Speaker 5: twenty million, it's a third rounder. If they signed it
- 21:01Speaker 5: for fifteen million or more, it's a fourth rounder. Like
- 21:03Speaker 5: this is real legit stuff. And and so that's one
- 21:07Speaker 5: aspect they're playing the long game. The other is they
- 21:09Speaker 5: had twenty four rookies on their team. They're the third
- 21:11Speaker 5: youngest team in the NFL. John Schneider sitting around It's like,
- 21:16Speaker 5: you know, on Christmas morning, you know, you got your
- 21:18Speaker 5: bicycle that and that was the first thing you unwrapped,
- 21:23Speaker 5: and then you you know, you ran around, you know,
- 21:25Speaker 5: ran around the block for all after, you know, for
- 21:29Speaker 5: like two three days, and then you haven't even gotten
- 21:31Speaker 5: to your other toys.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Yep.
- 21:33Speaker 5: And they've they've got a bunch of rookies and we'll
- 21:37Speaker 5: talk to them more about them in the next segment,
- 21:39Speaker 5: but at safety AJ Finley, that's one of the guys.
- 21:42Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I agree with you. I agree with you.
- 21:44Speaker 1: All right, Well come back, I'm gonna do this. I
- 21:46Speaker 1: want to get to I'm just going to go through
- 21:47Speaker 1: just when we come back, to just refresh everyone's memory
- 21:49Speaker 1: about the draft, because it's a very interesting draft that's
- 21:52Speaker 1: set up as it stands right now for Seattle. As
- 21:55Speaker 1: you mentioned, they do have a second round pick if
- 21:56Speaker 1: they want to go down the running back road at
- 21:58Speaker 1: that point in time. And then I want to talk
- 22:00Speaker 1: to you about Tory Horton and the guy that you
- 22:02Speaker 1: know well that you watched play in college, uh and
- 22:04Speaker 1: we saw briefly this year before he left a couple
- 22:07Speaker 1: of times injured finally shut down for the season. We're
- 22:10Speaker 1: gonna make I'm gonna make it a big assumption here
- 22:12Speaker 1: that they're gonna lose Rashichi Heat. So I'm gonna working
- 22:14Speaker 1: on that assumption. What can Tory Horton do for this
- 22:17Speaker 1: team as well? We'll talk about all that and Hugh
- 22:20Speaker 1: who knows what might happen over the next few minutes
- 22:22Speaker 1: in a commercial break, right, so don't go anywhere. It's
- 22:25Speaker 1: fast and furious Day one of free agency in the NFL.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Legal tampering, they call it right here in nine three
- 22:30Speaker 1: point three KJFM.
- 22:36Speaker 7: From the R and R Foundation Specialist broadcast studio. Now
- 22:40Speaker 7: back to He and Fernez powered by Seapples Closest sports
- 22:44Speaker 7: book Snow call me Casino and Hotel on Sports Radio
- 22:48Speaker 7: ninety three point three kJ R FM.
- 22:54Speaker 2: Alright, I'm back here.
- 22:55Speaker 1: It's a free free agent Frenzy will call it first
- 22:57Speaker 1: day of free agency in the NFL, legal hampering, whatever
- 23:00Speaker 1: you want to call it. Again, Teams can't sign players
- 23:03Speaker 1: or complete deals until Wednesday, but everything gets done probably
- 23:06Speaker 1: in the first twenty four to forty eight hours around
- 23:07Speaker 1: the league. In terms of the bigger things. Then there's
- 23:10Speaker 1: like a second wave and a third wave. But today's
- 23:12Speaker 1: a busy day. Hugh Millin's with us will recap everything
- 23:15Speaker 1: as the show goes along. Compensatory picks, by the way,
- 23:18Speaker 1: for this draft just announced by the NFL, Sattle does
- 23:21Speaker 1: not have any. So right now they have four draft
- 23:24Speaker 1: picks in this year's NFL draft, number thirty two overall,
- 23:28Speaker 1: which is the last pick of the first round that
- 23:29Speaker 1: always goes to the Super Bowl champion. They then have
- 23:32Speaker 1: number sixty four in the second round as well third
- 23:35Speaker 1: round number ninety six, so they have three picks on
- 23:38Speaker 1: days one and two, and this has to drive John
- 23:41Speaker 1: Schneider nuts. This has to drive him crazy because we
- 23:44Speaker 1: know how much he likes Saturday. In day three, he
- 23:47Speaker 1: has one pick right now, round six. That's two thirteen
- 23:50Speaker 1: on round on Day three, which would mean he would
- 23:52Speaker 1: pick around two o'clock in the afternoon. I don't think
- 23:55Speaker 1: it's going to stay that way, I would be I
- 23:56Speaker 1: would guess something will change along the way. But that's
- 23:59Speaker 1: what the looking at for draft picks Day three, Hume
- 24:03Speaker 1: mill In. Last year, Seattle picked up a guy you
- 24:06Speaker 1: know well. You watched him play a lot in college.
- 24:08Speaker 1: I think he had his most productive season with your
- 24:10Speaker 1: son throwing him the football and that's Tory Horton out
- 24:12Speaker 1: of Colorado State. They picked him up in the fifth
- 24:14Speaker 1: round last year. He played just eight games for Seattle
- 24:17Speaker 1: last season. In those eight games, he had thirteen catches
- 24:22Speaker 1: for one hundred and sixty one yards five touchdowns, also
- 24:25Speaker 1: had a punt return for a touchdown as well. When
- 24:28Speaker 1: he touched the ball, it was pretty good rate. Five
- 24:30Speaker 1: out of thirteen catches went for a touchdown. That works.
- 24:34Speaker 1: What is Tory Horton if healthy, Hugh, And assuming they
- 24:37Speaker 1: lose Rashid shi Hed, can Tory Horton make up for that?
- 24:40Speaker 1: And didn't they just go get Rasiji He because they
- 24:42Speaker 1: were worried about Horton's health last year.
- 24:45Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, Tory has some injuries he throughout his career,
- 24:50Speaker 5: a little nagging stuff. When you look at his frame,
- 24:52Speaker 5: he's pretty skinny in his lower half, and you know
- 24:57Speaker 5: the shin. The shin thinks that they've they've solved what
- 25:02Speaker 5: the issue was. It was related to the knee ligaments,
- 25:04Speaker 5: and so whatever whatever is done, they feel like they
- 25:08Speaker 5: can get the best of Tory Horton.
- 25:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 25:10Speaker 6: I know.
- 25:11Speaker 5: It was flying around just watching those guys play. He
- 25:15Speaker 5: the year that my son was throwing to him, he
- 25:18Speaker 5: had eleven hundred and thirty one yards receiving, which led
- 25:21Speaker 5: the Mountain West Conference, and that was fifteen point nine
- 25:24Speaker 5: yards per catch. Here's something that's interesting about it, because
- 25:29Speaker 5: he played in the somewhat of a version of the
- 25:32Speaker 5: run and shoot. He aligned on the right side of
- 25:36Speaker 5: that particular year, he aligned on the right side as
- 25:38Speaker 5: the far outside right receiver, five hundred and seventy four
- 25:43Speaker 5: snaps on the left side, twelve The next year he
- 25:48Speaker 5: was five hundred and twenty five on the right, the
- 25:51Speaker 5: next or seven on the left, and then his last
- 25:55Speaker 5: year he got hurt, he had one hundred and forty
- 25:57Speaker 5: eight on the right, three on the left, So that's
- 26:00Speaker 5: a combined twelve and forty seven snaps on the right,
- 26:04Speaker 5: twenty two on the left. It's kind of bizarre. And
- 26:08Speaker 5: then he was in the slot one hundred and five,
- 26:11Speaker 5: one hundred and sixty two and fifty one respectively in
- 26:15Speaker 5: the way I calculated that. Now, why is that important hit?
- 26:20Speaker 5: Probably his best trait is how he tracks a deep ball,
- 26:24Speaker 5: and he's so used to going over his left shoulder
- 26:27Speaker 5: running up the right sideline that it's it's not that
- 26:31Speaker 5: I think he can't do it. It's just there's such
- 26:35Speaker 5: an imbalance in what he's put on tape that it
- 26:38Speaker 5: makes you wonder all of his steps. You know, our
- 26:42Speaker 5: opposite obviously we goes to the left. He just doesn't
- 26:44Speaker 5: have a lot of experience there. You know, I have
- 26:46Speaker 5: a I had a teammate in the Ram with the Rams,
- 26:50Speaker 5: Kevin Green, when when I got drafted. Kevin Green, great dude.
- 26:55Speaker 5: He's in the Hall of Fame playing for the Rams
- 26:57Speaker 5: and the Steelers as a UH as an edge rusher
- 27:02Speaker 5: and for him, you know, I remember talking to me
- 27:05Speaker 5: he was a coach of the Packers when we were
- 27:07Speaker 5: talking on the silence says, if you asked me to
- 27:10Speaker 5: go on the uh, excuse me, on on the offenses right,
- 27:15Speaker 5: the defense is left if you if you ask him
- 27:18Speaker 5: to go to the opposite side, like his feet, his hands,
- 27:22Speaker 5: his balance, his strength, everything.
- 27:25Speaker 4: You know.
- 27:25Speaker 2: It's like if you skateboard. You've skied.
- 27:29Speaker 5: Everybody's been on a skateboard. Right, are you a left
- 27:31Speaker 5: foot forward or right foot? Now you might say you're
- 27:33Speaker 5: goofy and you can do it either way, in which
- 27:35Speaker 5: case good for you. You know, UH, water ski, when
- 27:39Speaker 5: I go on on one leg, I have to have
- 27:42Speaker 5: my left foot forward.
- 27:44Speaker 2: If you ask me to put my right foot forward,
- 27:46Speaker 2: I can't.
- 27:46Speaker 5: I can't even I'll just fall over like like it's
- 27:50Speaker 5: like it has to be left foot forward. So so
- 27:52Speaker 5: some of the things as athletes, you know it, it's
- 27:55Speaker 5: it's a little off. So tracking the ball is he
- 27:58Speaker 5: is phenomenal at that look, I think he is. I
- 28:02Speaker 5: don't think it's going to take long for him to
- 28:04Speaker 5: be a better receiver than Rashid Chihat. Rashid s Heat
- 28:06Speaker 5: only had twenty two yards REI yeah, like if he's healthy,
- 28:12Speaker 5: he's bigger. Maybe he's not as fast, but he's fast,
- 28:17Speaker 5: his body control, how he tracks like he is a
- 28:21Speaker 5: much more natural receiver than Rashid Shaheat As a punt returner. Now,
- 28:30Speaker 5: if you said to me, let me make this, I
- 28:31Speaker 5: don't want to be quoted as saying that I think
- 28:33Speaker 5: they're equal. I think Rashid Shihat is a better punt
- 28:36Speaker 5: returner than Tory Horton. But Tory Horton last year for
- 28:39Speaker 5: the Seahawks had fourteen point ninety yards per return and
- 28:43Speaker 5: Shahad at fifteen point zero.
- 28:46Speaker 2: And and uh in.
- 28:48Speaker 5: College that that year that he he led the Mountain
- 28:52Speaker 5: West his only year leading the Mountain West and receiving yards.
- 28:55Speaker 5: He also averaged fifteen point five yards per return in
- 28:59Speaker 5: punt So this is a dude. Now, this is a
- 29:02Speaker 5: legit dude when healthy. The thing he doesn't have he doesn't.
- 29:05Speaker 5: He didn't have any kickoff returns in college, not one,
- 29:09Speaker 5: and he didn't have a single kickoff return for the Seahawks.
- 29:12Speaker 5: So so while Shaheed is is you know, ad or
- 29:16Speaker 5: near the very best in the NFL at both punt
- 29:18Speaker 5: returning and kickoff returning, Tory Horton is a notch below
- 29:22Speaker 5: as a punt returner, but damn good and zero on
- 29:26Speaker 5: the kickoff return. So you're losing something for sure with
- 29:29Speaker 5: Shahed as a returner.
- 29:31Speaker 1: Final thing for Hugh Millen and I'm sure you'll be
- 29:34Speaker 1: on standby with Softy and Fat as the afternoon goes on.
- 29:37Speaker 1: Nothing more has happened for Seattle. Listen. This is this
- 29:41Speaker 1: is the norm. This is what Schneider does. Don't expect.
- 29:43Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think you know. If you've been
- 29:46Speaker 1: if you've watched the Seahawks since twenty ten with John
- 29:48Speaker 1: Schneider here, you probably understand this is how it's going
- 29:51Speaker 1: to be. It's how it's going to operate. But Hugh,
- 29:53Speaker 1: I'll just ask you this, what what what would you
- 29:55Speaker 1: tell Seahawks fans that are kind of in a panic
- 29:57Speaker 1: mode right now? And there are some and that's fine,
- 29:59Speaker 1: that's your progative. Your fan that are in a little
- 30:02Speaker 1: bit of a panic mode right now with the lack
- 30:03Speaker 1: of activity and just losing a couple of guys.
- 30:06Speaker 5: Well, there's gonna be a point where Seattle is going
- 30:09Speaker 5: to be losing the off season. Like that's just a fact, right,
- 30:13Speaker 5: because more guys are going to be going out. I mean,
- 30:16Speaker 5: just imagine if these guys had been hurt for the
- 30:19Speaker 5: Sea for the super Bowl, you know, if Knine and
- 30:22Speaker 5: Kobe Bryant were hurt and out unavailable. Now that's a
- 30:25Speaker 5: little bit of an unfair because you only have mere
- 30:28Speaker 5: days and you can't go acquire guys. This is a
- 30:30Speaker 5: lot different how you can how you can replace guys.
- 30:33Speaker 5: But it does contextualize to some degree if you try
- 30:36Speaker 5: and imagine remember when even worry on that Wednesday before
- 30:40Speaker 5: the Super Bowl, We're like, oh gosh, he might not play.
- 30:42Speaker 5: Remember what a panic were in absolutely and Mike McDonald's
- 30:46Speaker 5: telling people that he woke up seventy times one night
- 30:49Speaker 5: because he couldn't sleep right. Well, imagine if you didn't
- 30:52Speaker 5: have Knine and Kobe Bryant. Well, to me, Canine would
- 30:55Speaker 5: have hurt you more. Even if Sharbonnet was healthy, Canine
- 30:58Speaker 5: would have heard you. But but you're gonna we're gonna
- 31:00Speaker 5: lose the offseason for a while here. But Seattle's playing
- 31:04Speaker 5: the long game with the comps. You could have four
- 31:07Speaker 5: comps in the third uh, third, fourth, and perhaps fifth
- 31:11Speaker 5: round uh going into next year. That that's something that's
- 31:16Speaker 5: important to Seattle. And then you lose boy Mafy. Okay,
- 31:20Speaker 5: heard of Jared Ivy, an edge guy. Seattle feels really
- 31:25Speaker 5: good about Jared Ivy here, heard about a j. Finley
- 31:29Speaker 5: Because of Kobe Bryant's gone, probably haven't. Well, the Seahawks
- 31:32Speaker 5: feel really good about who they have in house. How
- 31:35Speaker 5: about Riley Mills. You know there's some you know you're
- 31:39Speaker 5: you're losing. Uh uh Now, Kobe Bryant's a safety, but
- 31:42Speaker 5: we're gonna we're gonna lose Rik Wallen.
- 31:44Speaker 2: Okay, that's gonna be added to the list. It's just
- 31:45Speaker 2: a matter of time. You know.
- 31:46Speaker 5: Greek Wallen's not gonna be a Seahawk, but they love
- 31:49Speaker 5: Nea Maya Pritchard who ran a four to three coming
- 31:51Speaker 5: out of Auburn. Not as physical, but he's up this
- 31:53Speaker 5: physical game. So so now they feel like they've been
- 31:56Speaker 5: grooming him.
- 31:58Speaker 2: And and that's how you know, that's how you have
- 32:00Speaker 2: to do it. Like you got a twenty eight year
- 32:02Speaker 2: old quarterback.
- 32:03Speaker 5: You got a chance to be really competitive for five, six,
- 32:07Speaker 5: seven years with this quarterback. So if you have you
- 32:11Speaker 5: have to have the influx of young people and and
- 32:14Speaker 5: acquire young people and and let some some guys go,
- 32:19Speaker 5: and then the young people have to unfeel So those
- 32:21Speaker 5: names that I'm talking about, those twenty four rookies who are.
- 32:24Speaker 2: On the practice squad, uh, Seattle believes in them.
- 32:28Speaker 5: And right now these guys have earned the benefit of
- 32:31Speaker 5: the doubt.
- 32:33Speaker 1: Well, my friend business, Well, well said my friend, great stuff.
- 32:36Speaker 1: I appreciate you popping on today.
- 32:37Speaker 2: Uh.
- 32:38Speaker 1: Like I said, it's our guy, Hugh Millen. So I'm
- 32:40Speaker 1: expecting if stuff happens that that you'll get a call
- 32:42Speaker 1: from mister Maller later on as well.

- 32:48Speaker 5: A well, so I think I'm on.

- 34:04Speaker 1: cracking off today. They're back at it tomorrow. Nashville's Intown.
- 34:07Speaker 1: That's a team that is just three points behind Seattle somehow,
- 34:11Speaker 1: despite losing their last two games in frankly awful fashion
- 34:16Speaker 1: to the worst games they've played all season. Despite that
- 34:18Speaker 1: good timing, they still hold onto the second and final
- 34:21Speaker 1: wildcard spot and they're three points out of third place
- 34:24Speaker 1: in the Pacific Division as well are the Seattle kracking.
- 34:28Speaker 1: So Nashville here tomorrow. One note LA playing right now.
- 34:32Speaker 1: They're playing a weird early game in Columbus. I don't
- 34:35Speaker 1: know what's going on. If there's some weird holiday and Columbus,
- 34:37Speaker 1: what's happening, But they're playing. They're leading two to one.
- 34:40Speaker 1: LA is three points back at Seattle. They could pull
- 34:43Speaker 1: with into one if they get that win today.
- 34:45Speaker 2: All right.
- 34:46Speaker 1: Bobby McMahon's the newest member of the Kraken. He is
- 34:49Speaker 1: in town on the practice ice today. Whether or not
- 34:52Speaker 1: he plays tomorrow remains to be seen because immigration issues.
- 34:57Speaker 1: When you trade for a player who is playing for
- 34:59Speaker 1: a Canadian tea, you've got to get immigration stuff worked
- 35:01Speaker 1: out before he can practice. But he can't play. Hopefully
- 35:04Speaker 1: we'll have it done by tomorrow. They need him because
- 35:06Speaker 1: Jaden Schwartz is out indefinitely and it definitely means he's
- 35:08Speaker 1: out for a long time.
- 35:09Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 35:10Speaker 1: So took us skate to the face area on Saturday Day.
- 35:15Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 35:15Speaker 1: I think this shield, I think the shield of his
- 35:18Speaker 1: face mask, blocked the skate and smashed his face in,
- 35:23Speaker 1: which is better than it could have been on the
- 35:24Speaker 1: state and anyway, we'll keep an eye on that. Bobby McMahon,
- 35:28Speaker 1: newest member of the Kraken, was in Toronto before this
- 35:31Speaker 1: and last year assistant coach for Toronto was Lane Lambert.
- 35:33Speaker 1: Here's Bobby McMahon, his new head coach.
- 35:35Speaker 9: I loved hearing in your scrum with the media before
- 35:39Speaker 9: this conversation on the conversation that you had with Lane
- 35:42Speaker 9: Lambert after the trade deadline and all of this was finalized.
- 35:46Speaker 2: When the head coach can.
- 35:48Speaker 9: Go out of his way to reach out connect, what
- 35:51Speaker 9: does that mean for you as a player?
- 35:53Speaker 10: Yeah, it close a long way. I think when you
- 35:56Speaker 10: get traded, especially this late in the season, there's a
- 35:58Speaker 10: lot of question that's as far as thinking where I
- 36:00Speaker 10: gotta fit in. This group's kind of already established. They've
- 36:03Speaker 10: had some good success, Like you don't want to come
- 36:04Speaker 10: in and disrupt anything.
- 36:05Speaker 9: But he was.
- 36:07Speaker 10: Really good at making sure and easing that those kind
- 36:10Speaker 10: of questions and making sure I know that this is
- 36:12Speaker 10: a spot that I'm wanted and guys are gonna be welcoming,
- 36:15Speaker 10: and he's gonna be welcoming, and he's gonna work with
- 36:18Speaker 10: me and try and try and get me in the
- 36:20Speaker 10: lineup and working and contributing to this group as soon as.
- 36:23Speaker 1: Possible, hopefully in the lineup tomorrow night for the Seattle Crack.

- 36:52Speaker 1: was released by the Dolphins. He's gonna make fifty four
- 36:55Speaker 1: million dollars this season, depending on Michael Pennox's health to
- 36:57Speaker 1: maybe sit on the sideline.

- 38:33Speaker 1: Headlines back to by frostpreed cors Light Choose chill. First
- 38:36Speaker 1: day of NFL Free agency. We call it legal tampering
- 38:39Speaker 1: is underway. Seahawks have lost ken Walker. They have also
- 38:44Speaker 1: lost boy A Mafe and the Kobe Bryant all going elsewhere.
- 38:48Speaker 1: Bryant going to the Bears three years, forty million dollars.
- 38:53Speaker 1: Josh job did re sign with Seattle three years, twenty
- 38:56Speaker 1: four million, boy A Mafi going to Cincinna. Ken Walker
- 38:58Speaker 1: going to Kansas City. That's as of right now. Who knows,
- 39:01Speaker 1: may there's something else that happened. That's where were gonna
- 39:03Speaker 1: have Greig bell on. In a second, Tua goes to
- 39:05Speaker 1: the Dolphins. By the way, Jalen Watson goes to the Rams.
- 39:09Speaker 1: That redes their secondary. They'd have two guys from in state,
- 39:12Speaker 1: McDuffie and Watson, coug and a husky. They were good
- 39:15Speaker 1: together with the Chiefs. They'll be good with the rams.
- 39:17Speaker 1: That helps them quite a bit along the way as well.
- 39:20Speaker 1: San Francisco's added Mike Evans, wide receiver from Tampa Bay.
- 39:23Speaker 1: Arizona added Tyson Algeer, the running back that maybe many
- 39:27Speaker 1: people thought could be a fit here in Seattle if
- 39:28Speaker 1: Walker leaves, which he did, but that's not going to
- 39:31Speaker 1: be the case as well, and Gardner Minshew just signed
- 39:34Speaker 1: a contract with the Arizona Cardinals as well, five point
- 39:38Speaker 1: six up to eight million, depending on incentives. Arizona has
- 39:41Speaker 1: the number three pick in the draft. I assume they're
- 39:44Speaker 1: thinking quarterback there. Maybe maybe not. I don't know what
- 39:46Speaker 1: the hell we'll see. All right, let's get to an

- 41:18Speaker 4: How are you well, sir? How are you?
- 41:20Speaker 2: I'm good. I'm good. I'm good.
- 41:22Speaker 1: I this is this is always an interesting day. It's
- 41:26Speaker 1: it's been this way.
- 41:27Speaker 2: For a while.
- 41:29Speaker 1: There's a lot of I would say, consternation and stress
- 41:33Speaker 1: and Seahawks fans and Seahawk Nation. There's no end and frankly,
- 41:37Speaker 1: all these teams around the league if you're not making,
- 41:39Speaker 1: you know, early big moves. But this is also what
- 41:41Speaker 1: we've kind of come to expect, not just from John Shutter,
- 41:44Speaker 1: but I think so far things have kind of played
- 41:46Speaker 1: out how we thought they would.
- 41:47Speaker 4: Right exactly. And Josh jo was the most signable one
- 41:52Speaker 4: in the sense that he wouldn't probably cost a lot,
- 41:55Speaker 4: someone knowing in the league values more than the Seahawks do.
- 41:57Speaker 4: They got us a backup from the Eagles for the
- 42:00Speaker 4: twenty twenty four season, and the Seahawks pay him eight
- 42:04Speaker 4: million a year to stay, and he wanted to stay.
- 42:06Speaker 4: He got his chance to be a starter with the Seahawks.
- 42:11Speaker 4: The boy Mafe agreeing to sign with Cincinnati is the
- 42:15Speaker 4: epitome of inflation in the NFL, a super Bowl tax.
- 42:21Speaker 4: If you were that when you win a Super Bowl,
- 42:24Speaker 4: teams will come getting your guys and overpay for them
- 42:27Speaker 4: and make it just untenable and not just not smart
- 42:30Speaker 4: for you to try to retain him. There was no
- 42:33Speaker 4: way they were Seahawks were going to pay twenty million
- 42:36Speaker 4: a year for boy Mafi only played fifty percent of
- 42:38Speaker 4: their snaps as an outside linebacker. Not when they have
- 42:42Speaker 4: ten and willsu Not when they have Derek Hall entering
- 42:45Speaker 4: the final year of his deal and they may give
- 42:46Speaker 4: him another one after the season coming up. The Kobe
- 42:52Speaker 4: Bryant deal in Chicago. There's no way the Seahawks are
- 42:55Speaker 4: going to give The Seahorks were contemplating whether to give
- 42:58Speaker 4: him twelve million a year. He got a twelve million
- 43:00Speaker 4: our signing bonus in twenty six million over the first
- 43:04Speaker 4: twelve months of his deal. No way that John Schneider
- 43:07Speaker 4: is going to give that. This is what happens. It
- 43:10Speaker 4: costs money to win a Super Bowl. They're not cutting guy,
- 43:13Speaker 4: They're not losing guys because they stink. The players are good,
- 43:17Speaker 4: I mean, but the team is paying the price of
- 43:20Speaker 4: winning the Super Bowl. Today because teams are overpaying for
- 43:23Speaker 4: Seahawks players just won the Super Bowl. Their values went
- 43:26Speaker 4: way up because of what happened in January and February.
- 43:30Speaker 4: And there's no way, absolutely no way, Boy mafy gets
- 43:33Speaker 4: twenty million from anybody if the Seahawks don't win the
- 43:35Speaker 4: Super Bowl. That's what happens in this league. And John
- 43:40Speaker 4: Schneider is going to stick to his budgeting plan. He's
- 43:44Speaker 4: not going to get into the doll Cincinnati's offen MafA
- 43:47Speaker 4: twenty million. Let's go twenty one. Us are offering Kobe Bryant.
- 43:52Speaker 4: Would it ended up being per year fourteen or thirteen
- 43:54Speaker 4: point three, which is more than Cam Purw got from
- 43:56Speaker 4: the Rams this weekend, Well, let's go thirty five. He
- 43:59Speaker 4: doesn't have to do that, nor should he, because he
- 44:02Speaker 4: has a Super Bowl champion. He's going to go in
- 44:05Speaker 4: second and third way free agencies. What he's done for
- 44:08Speaker 4: sixteen previous offseason here is with a notable exceptions such
- 44:13Speaker 4: as Draymond Jones, which bit him. Yeah, if you think
- 44:16Speaker 4: about it, really the only time in the last decade
- 44:19Speaker 4: that they have been involved in first day free agents,
- 44:22Speaker 4: most prominently was Draymond Jones, a couple of years ago
- 44:26Speaker 4: for fifty one million dollars from Denver, and that was
- 44:29Speaker 4: an abject failure. I mean he did earn fifty one
- 44:32Speaker 4: thousand dollars letter than fifty one million here. So Schnyder
- 44:36Speaker 4: that deal with Jones reminded him, let's not jump in
- 44:39Speaker 4: and go crazy and go frenzied. When this first wave
- 44:43Speaker 4: is over, let's look back and see the teams who
- 44:45Speaker 4: spent the most, because the teams who spent the most
- 44:49Speaker 4: tend to stink because that's what they try to build
- 44:53Speaker 4: through free agency, which time and again is not the
- 44:56Speaker 4: way to construct the team. Yes, plug your holes and
- 44:58Speaker 4: individually pick, choose, but just mass carpet bombing the free
- 45:03Speaker 4: agent market is not the way to go. Yet. This
- 45:06Speaker 4: is what this is what it is, and for these
- 45:08Speaker 4: first few days it obviously frustrates Seahawks fans that they're
- 45:11Speaker 4: not more active. But this is the way John Schneider operates.
- 45:14Speaker 1: And John Schneider last I checked his constructed from the
- 45:18Speaker 1: ground up two super Bowl champions. He may may know
- 45:21Speaker 1: what he's doing, he may have an idea of what
- 45:23Speaker 1: he's doing. He may may have a plan, he may
- 45:26Speaker 1: have an idea there Ken I mean you talked about
- 45:28Speaker 1: the inflation. Ken Walker was twentieth in attempts last season,
- 45:32Speaker 1: sixteenth in yards, sixteenth in average attempt thirteenth in terms
- 45:37Speaker 1: of his longest run of the year, and he had
- 45:40Speaker 1: five touchdowns, which was thirty first in the league. He
- 45:43Speaker 1: had a great playoffs when Charbonay got hurt at the
- 45:45Speaker 1: Super Bowl MVP performance. But I think what you just
- 45:48Speaker 1: said about boy Mafe and Kobe Bryant also applies to
- 45:52Speaker 1: ken Walker. In no way they were going to give
- 45:54Speaker 1: that running back that kind of money.
- 45:55Speaker 2: The Kansas City, you know what.
- 45:58Speaker 4: I think Kenneth Walker was leaving starting in September. I
- 46:02Speaker 4: think once they.
- 46:03Speaker 1: Talked about you talked about that a lot. Didn't you
- 46:05Speaker 1: talked about that a lot this year?
- 46:07Speaker 4: I did, And I talked to Walker a lot. It's
- 46:10Speaker 4: not always for print about how things are going this season.
- 46:14Speaker 4: And when I talked to him at the Super Bowl
- 46:16Speaker 4: four days before the game in San Jose, and I
- 46:19Speaker 4: said so, I just said, it was just him and
- 46:21Speaker 4: me sitting down at the round table in a convention hall,
- 46:25Speaker 4: and I said, so, how did you handle all this
- 46:26Speaker 4: this year? The job share with Sharvin and and he
- 46:30Speaker 4: looked at me and said, how would you like that?
- 46:34Speaker 4: And think about it. He's twenty five years old. It
- 46:38Speaker 4: was a contract year for him, his chance for generational wealth,
- 46:42Speaker 4: and the Seahawks put him in a job share for
- 46:44Speaker 4: the first time in his career. Yep, that was the
- 46:47Speaker 4: end of Kenneth Walker in Seattle. If the Chiefs hadn't
- 46:51Speaker 4: offered him what they would have, but he would have
- 46:52Speaker 4: taken probably a fraction of that to go somewhere else,
- 46:56Speaker 4: to play for somebody else. The job shared to me
- 46:59Speaker 4: spelled the the kind of Walker in Seattle, and then
- 47:02Speaker 4: it was just a matter of who was going to
- 47:03Speaker 4: sign him for how much? And then he goes and
- 47:05Speaker 4: becomes Super Bowl MVP, and he blows up, and he
- 47:08Speaker 4: goes to the top of the running back and free
- 47:10Speaker 4: agent market and they were never going to resign him.
- 47:12Speaker 4: But and to Walker's credit, he kept his mouth shut teammate.
- 47:19Speaker 4: He didn't out even noticeably on the field. When he
- 47:23Speaker 4: did get the ball, he performed and be came what
- 47:26Speaker 4: he became in the postseason. But simmering underneath was when
- 47:32Speaker 4: this season's over, I'm going to go get mine and
- 47:35Speaker 4: wherever that comes. And then once it broke for him,
- 47:38Speaker 4: in his way in January February, his became a pretty
- 47:41Speaker 4: lucrative paid it.
- 47:42Speaker 1: I think those Seahawks are leary as well, and rightfully so.
- 47:45Speaker 1: That running back position is so fragile. I and I
- 47:49Speaker 1: just think back to twenty twenty one, March twenty ninth,
- 47:54Speaker 1: twenty twenty one free agency. That year they signed a
- 47:56Speaker 1: guy by the name of Chris Carson to another contract.
- 47:59Speaker 1: He played four games after that and his career came
- 48:01Speaker 1: to an end. And listen, you can't live in fear,
- 48:03Speaker 1: but you know, like fool me once, don't fool me twice, right,
- 48:06Speaker 1: like this is this And Walker had a healthy year.
- 48:10Speaker 1: Good for him, But man, that's a lot of money
- 48:13Speaker 1: and just for what you can do and how if
- 48:15Speaker 1: you can try to replicate it and everything else. I
- 48:17Speaker 1: love Ken Walker, I love how he plays. I thought
- 48:20Speaker 1: we talked about it on this show, Greg. I can
- 48:22Speaker 1: just tell you this. Every Friday we had our guy
- 48:24Speaker 1: Great co Sell on Greg Coselle would ask us the question,
- 48:27Speaker 1: what are they doing with the running back position? Why
- 48:29Speaker 1: is it as you just called it a job share.
- 48:31Speaker 1: We couldn't figure it out, but that was what they did.
- 48:34Speaker 1: It ended up in a Super Bowl win. Hard to
- 48:36Speaker 1: question much of what they did last year, but he's
- 48:38Speaker 1: going to have a better opportunity in Kansas City. That's
- 48:40Speaker 1: the most glaring need that franchise has had for eons.
- 48:43Speaker 1: It feels like right and he fits in there, and
- 48:46Speaker 1: here in Seattle they can go a different direction.
- 48:49Speaker 4: A couple of reasons they did the job share. One
- 48:51Speaker 4: was they were trying to audition Sharp and I to
- 48:53Speaker 4: see what he would look like as a top running
- 48:55Speaker 4: back and red zone running back and the goal line
- 48:57Speaker 4: running back. And he scored twelve touchdowns, most of the
- 49:00Speaker 4: team since Marshaun Lynch in twenty fourteen, the last Super
- 49:03Speaker 4: Bowl season. The other reason was they were trying to
- 49:05Speaker 4: get Walker through all seventeen games. He had the high
- 49:09Speaker 4: ankle sprain to put him on injury reserve at the
- 49:10Speaker 4: end of last season. Then his foot ballothered him in
- 49:13Speaker 4: August and they shut him down during training camp, and
- 49:16Speaker 4: I remember sitting in a hotel in Green Bay talking
- 49:19Speaker 4: to McDonald and he was saying, we're trying to get
- 49:22Speaker 4: him through the whole season. We're trying to manage him
- 49:25Speaker 4: to get through all seventeen and ended up being twenty
- 49:28Speaker 4: and he played all twenty for the first time in
- 49:30Speaker 4: his career. He played every one of the regular season games,
- 49:32Speaker 4: which turned out to his benefit to be able to
- 49:34Speaker 4: go into free agency until the Chiefs and everybody else, Hey,
- 49:37Speaker 4: I'm not I'm durable. Let's just knock about me being
- 49:39Speaker 4: an injury prone. I played all seventeen tall twenty games
- 49:42Speaker 4: for Super Bowl camp. But the Seahawks were trying to
- 49:45Speaker 4: play the long game with him by limiting his snaps
- 49:48Speaker 4: and splitting it with Sharponnay. Now it was sad to
- 49:52Speaker 4: Walker's detriment, obviously, and it was way more than Walker
- 49:56Speaker 4: wanted it to be. But in the end it worked
- 49:58Speaker 4: out for him, just not during the year it didn't,
- 50:00Speaker 4: but the sea outside the reasons for doing it, because
- 50:03Speaker 4: now the plan was, okay, if Walker becomes too expensive,
- 50:07Speaker 4: sharpon A will be our number one back. Of course,
- 50:10Speaker 4: they weren't planning on Sharponay to rip out his ACL
- 50:13Speaker 4: in January, and now he may not be on the
- 50:15Speaker 4: field until November, and that changes everything because now who's
- 50:20Speaker 4: the number one running back? Is it Kenny McIntosh, who's
- 50:23Speaker 4: coming off his own ACO from July and who was
- 50:26Speaker 4: uninjured reserve as a rookie two three years ago Is
- 50:30Speaker 4: it George Hallani cam Aker's coming back, who was on
- 50:34Speaker 4: the practice courd, you know last season, Chlas Jones Algier
- 50:39Speaker 4: just signed with Arizona. Is it someone like a Brian
- 50:41Speaker 4: Robinson who's twenty six years old who could pass in
- 50:45Speaker 4: the aid would seem to fit at ten, just signed
- 50:49Speaker 4: for got overpaid in the market. It does beg the
- 50:53Speaker 4: question now for an offense that runs the ball fifty
- 50:56Speaker 4: percent at the time, as much as anybody in the
- 50:57Speaker 4: league who their late running backs.
- 51:01Speaker 2: I wonder we were talking about this with Hugh a
- 51:02Speaker 2: minute ago. I kind of wonder.
- 51:06Speaker 1: There's one running back in the first that has a
- 51:08Speaker 1: first round grade in the draft coming out this year,
- 51:10Speaker 1: and that's Jeremiah Love.
- 51:11Speaker 2: After that, everyone is a.
- 51:12Speaker 1: Day, two, day, three day, whatever draft pick. I wonder
- 51:17Speaker 1: if they think they can get a running back in
- 51:19Speaker 1: the draft. They've invested capital before first round pick and Penny,
- 51:23Speaker 1: second round picks Michael and Walker and Charbonay. I wonder
- 51:27Speaker 1: if that's a priority in the draft for this team now.
- 51:30Speaker 4: Oh, I think absolutely. It is the problem of courses.
- 51:34Speaker 4: The only have four picks, and three of them are
- 51:36Speaker 4: at the bottom of each of the first three rounds,
- 51:38Speaker 4: So they don't have a lot of value inside this
- 51:42Speaker 4: draft to do that. But like you said, they've prided
- 51:45Speaker 4: themselves on getting running backs from places that Thomas Rawls
- 51:50Speaker 4: was starting running back for years here he was undrafted,
- 51:53Speaker 4: Chris Carson was a seventh round pick. So I think
- 51:57Speaker 4: it's absolutely a priority. And John Schneider has shown he
- 52:00Speaker 4: doesn't need the Heisman Trophy winning top of the draft
- 52:04Speaker 4: guys to be his running back, and not only to
- 52:06Speaker 4: draft is running back to beat the lead running back.
- 52:09Speaker 4: And I mean there could be a guy that's sitting
- 52:11Speaker 4: in the fifth round somewhere they're going to pick that
- 52:14Speaker 4: they may give a shot to younger, cheaper. That's the
- 52:18Speaker 4: name of the game in the NFL. If you can
- 52:21Speaker 4: get comparable. I'm not saying that it's someone I drafted
- 52:23Speaker 4: the fifth rounds. This year's draft is going to be
- 52:26Speaker 4: like Kenneth P. Walker production wized. But if you get
- 52:28Speaker 4: younger and cheaper with comparable results and a committee maybe
- 52:32Speaker 4: sign of a free agent that's cheap and it's still
- 52:35Speaker 4: in his twenties, and you could somewhat replicate with it
- 52:38Speaker 4: more of a committee that's younger and cheaper. In the
- 52:41Speaker 4: Seahawks mind.
- 52:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I just it's I go back to,
- 52:46Speaker 1: you know, a guy like Carson. I think that's a
- 52:47Speaker 1: great comp you know, they pick him in twenty eighteen,
- 52:50Speaker 1: seventh round. The guy comes in and his rookie season,
- 52:54Speaker 1: he drops eleven hundred yards.
- 52:56Speaker 2: On you, I mean right, And.
- 53:00Speaker 1: The next year he has twelve hundred yards and you're like, okay, well,
- 53:03Speaker 1: no more beast mode.
- 53:03Speaker 2: This guy seems to be fine.
- 53:05Speaker 1: Obviously his body broke down, but he gained some I
- 53:08Speaker 1: think too that one of the things that I you know,
- 53:10Speaker 1: you've been covering this even longer than I have, but
- 53:13Speaker 1: for all those years, I always chuckle because I think
- 53:17Speaker 1: people at times there might be an assumption that John
- 53:20Speaker 1: Schneider is just working in a vacuum where he's just
- 53:22Speaker 1: with it's just John Schneider, Mike McDonald's sitting there in
- 53:24Speaker 1: a vacuum by themselves. They've been talking to their personnel
- 53:28Speaker 1: guys or Matt barri or college scout and all his
- 53:31Speaker 1: all his scouts around the country. Hey, what can we
- 53:34Speaker 1: find for position A, B and C running back whatever
- 53:38Speaker 1: it might be?
- 53:38Speaker 4: Right?
- 53:39Speaker 1: And everyone says it's not a great draft this year,
- 53:41Speaker 1: and it for whatever, you know, is it a good
- 53:43Speaker 1: draft or not. Time will tell if it is a
- 53:45Speaker 1: good draft or not, Greg, But the point is this,
- 53:48Speaker 1: there are guys in the draft that will be drafted,
- 53:50Speaker 1: that will be impact players at certain positions, and they
- 53:53Speaker 1: know who those guys are. Who knows what they've got planned.
- 53:56Speaker 1: I also say this, don't ever jump to any conclusions
- 53:59Speaker 1: on day one like that's just it's the roster is
- 54:02Speaker 1: far far from being complete right now, even with only
- 54:06Speaker 1: four drop picks.
- 54:07Speaker 4: Right absolutely, and especially for this team and free how
- 54:10Speaker 4: many times have we see him signed free agents in
- 54:12Speaker 4: April and May at the end of training camp, absolutely
- 54:17Speaker 4: second and third and fifth wave free agents or how
- 54:19Speaker 4: Schneyder operates, and he just doesn't go in for the
- 54:23Speaker 4: big splash. And he is convinced, and he's got sixteen
- 54:26Speaker 4: years of a trucker behind him, that you don't win
- 54:29Speaker 4: that way. You can't sustain success by spending all your
- 54:33Speaker 4: money in the first days of free agency. The other
- 54:36Speaker 4: thing he brought up last week that is interesting to remember,
- 54:39Speaker 4: he wants to save money to trade during the season.
- 54:43Speaker 4: When you make a Leonard Williams trade or Rashid Shahed
- 54:46Speaker 4: trade that takes sour camp money, you have to devote
- 54:49Speaker 4: that you didn't plan on spending until you made the trade. Right.
- 54:52Speaker 4: That's you have to have a slush fund on hand
- 54:56Speaker 4: during the season to make those type of deals. And
- 54:58Speaker 4: you could argue the Rashij heat trade even if he
- 55:01Speaker 4: does probably and he will sign somewhere else the next
- 55:03Speaker 4: couple of days. The Rashid Shahea trade helped them get
- 55:06Speaker 4: to the Super Bowl. If Shahe doesn't return that pun
- 55:09Speaker 4: against the Rams when they're down sixteen with nine minutes left,
- 55:12Speaker 4: they don't win the division. They have three road playoff games,
- 55:15Speaker 4: they play the NFC championship games that you can get
- 55:17Speaker 4: that far in Englewood. But because he made that trade
- 55:20Speaker 4: for two third day picks in a draft, and he
- 55:22Speaker 4: thinks it has acknowledged it weaker, that's well worth it
- 55:26Speaker 4: to him. Well, you can only do that if you
- 55:28Speaker 4: save money against your salary cap for in season trades,
- 55:33Speaker 4: not spending it all in March. He's convinced in that
- 55:37Speaker 4: you're not going to win by spending all your money
- 55:40Speaker 4: and making all your moves on March the ninth. In
- 55:43Speaker 4: March to twelfth and March of fifteen, he thinks you're
- 55:46Speaker 4: going to do it as an ongoing process, it's going
- 55:48Speaker 4: to last all the way through the trade deadline in
- 55:50Speaker 4: the old seventy instead of fifty three and bringing up
- 55:52Speaker 4: practice squad guys and all that stuff. And this year
- 55:56Speaker 4: in this particular proved him right.
- 55:58Speaker 1: Are you surprised Bill at all that we haven't seen
- 56:01Speaker 1: anything any news yet on Riqueling?
- 56:06Speaker 8: Oh?
- 56:06Speaker 4: Yes, No, He's an interesting case because too, he had
- 56:12Speaker 4: some very prominent misplays week won in San Francisco. They
- 56:16Speaker 4: scored the winning touchdown on him, and Krisol got him
- 56:18Speaker 4: in position in San Francisco to win that game over him,
- 56:21Speaker 4: the ponting penalty that handed the Rams a touchdown that
- 56:25Speaker 4: maybe honestly title game tense. Yet he's six', four he
- 56:30Speaker 4: runs like the. Win he can jump out of the.
- 56:32Speaker 4: Gym he's got these freakish athletic skills at a position
- 56:37Speaker 4: of such high pay and value in the. League so,
- 56:42Speaker 4: TEAMS i think are trying to figure out how much,
- 56:45Speaker 4: pay but you see some of the deals guys are already.
- 56:48Speaker 4: Getting he could get close to twenty million dollars a
- 56:52Speaker 4: year for a guy who's a rotational player In seattle
- 56:56Speaker 4: this past season and now that they've Resigned Josh job
- 56:59Speaker 4: to bring back and now that they're going to Make
- 57:01Speaker 4: Devin witherston probably a thirty million dollar guy here in the.
- 57:04Speaker 4: Summer The seahorks don't need twenty million or even close
- 57:08Speaker 4: to that for. PLAN i think the rest of the
- 57:10Speaker 4: league is trying to decide how high to go on
- 57:13Speaker 4: him and how many competitors and suitors would there. Be
- 57:16Speaker 4: wow wool and sits back and his agent seeing taking
- 57:20Speaker 4: their time and seeing how high they can push. This
- 57:22Speaker 4: because of his skills and how important that position is
- 57:26Speaker 4: in a past happy, league it's probably going to literally
- 57:29Speaker 4: pay off for Wild the wait.
- 57:30Speaker 1: Here i'm, wondering let's just throw a couple of names
- 57:34Speaker 1: out there of Do seahawks fans need to know Who
- 57:37Speaker 1: Aj finley?
- 57:38Speaker 4: Is maybe anything anything as possible and names and. Positions
- 57:45Speaker 4: at this, POINT i think they're.
- 57:47Speaker 1: Gonna he's on the. Prick he was a practice squad
- 57:49Speaker 1: guy last. Year, Right that's that's a safety that they may.
- 57:52Speaker 1: LIKE i, mean that's those are the things that we
- 57:54Speaker 1: don't know, sometimes, Right, no that you.
- 57:56Speaker 4: Don't but Tyle cott is the air parent right right Over.
- 58:00Speaker 4: Finley but Then finley moves up in prominent. Prominence if
- 58:02Speaker 4: they like, them they've got a futures contract on him
- 58:05Speaker 4: for the year and he becomes perhaps the next Til,
- 58:08Speaker 4: kado plays on special teams and then gets a chance
- 58:11Speaker 4: if someone gets. Hurt BUT i still think back to
- 58:14Speaker 4: the point is that running back has become the priority
- 58:16Speaker 4: spot and they are still thin and always will be
- 58:20Speaker 4: on offensive and defensive line, depth especially defensive line Dep
- 58:24Speaker 4: schnyder and McDonald, especially can't have enough of those defensive
- 58:27Speaker 4: tackle rotation. Guys they're going to sign a, Couple they're
- 58:31Speaker 4: going to draft one or. Two they just have to
- 58:33Speaker 4: have more there and they. Will, again what makes this
- 58:37Speaker 4: an anomaly year and it's the only hand of the four,
- 58:39Speaker 4: picks and again that's by. Design schneider told us at the,
- 58:43Speaker 4: combine we saw last year this was, coming that last
- 58:47Speaker 4: year's draft and the twenty seven draft were much stronger
- 58:50Speaker 4: in their minds and deeper than this twenty sixth. Draft
- 58:53Speaker 4: and he, said that's why you saw us make the
- 58:55Speaker 4: moves we. DID i mean he trade two third day
- 58:58Speaker 4: picks for She heat during the season and what so,
- 59:02Speaker 4: well we say that they do have needs and the
- 59:04Speaker 4: running back IN sms a. Priority they just have a
- 59:06Speaker 4: little bit less flexibility because having fewer draft picks than.
- 59:10Speaker 1: YEAH i mean the first round, pick a, second a,
- 59:13Speaker 1: third and a sixth one pick On day. Three there's
- 59:15Speaker 1: there's probably a zero percent chance that stays the same
- 59:18Speaker 1: with The day three that there's no Way schneider can
- 59:21Speaker 1: sit there until like two O'clock pacific time and we
- 59:24Speaker 1: make a pick On, saturday.
- 59:28Speaker 4: Especially owning the thirty second second round one in a
- 59:31Speaker 4: draft that he'll only have twenty five max guys tuk
- 59:34Speaker 4: peg first round. Talent he'll trade that pick down get
- 59:38Speaker 4: a couple third day picks in exchange for moving back
- 59:41Speaker 4: a few spots into the top of the second round.
- 59:44Speaker 2: Of the following.
- 59:46Speaker 1: Uh second tier guys that are free, agents whether it
- 59:50Speaker 1: be unrestricted free agent And Dake young Or Josh jones
- 59:53Speaker 1: or restricted free agents And Jake, Bobo Brady. Russell, THERE
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: i don't care about a long, snapper, sorry H.
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: Cody, Yeah.
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: Crystal those guys like who are likely to who are
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: guys likely to come?
- 1:00:07Speaker 4: Back Bobo Brady, russell our core. Guys the Way schnyder
- 1:00:14Speaker 4: likes to do, it he doesn't like to be tied
- 1:00:15Speaker 4: down to what the tender value. Is if it's three
- 1:00:18Speaker 4: million dollars For Jake, bobo if you offer him the
- 1:00:21Speaker 4: tender as a restricted free, agent he'd rather, Say i'll
- 1:00:23Speaker 4: give you a two year. Deal number is better than
- 1:00:27Speaker 4: three for, us and we'll give you a little bit
- 1:00:29Speaker 4: more cash with signing bonus or whatnot up. Front so
- 1:00:32Speaker 4: that's what they tend to. Do. Now the danger you
- 1:00:34Speaker 4: play waiting until now to do that, is of course
- 1:00:37Speaker 4: other teams can get involved in shop and overpay and
- 1:00:40Speaker 4: you get an equivalent not as, much but you can
- 1:00:43Speaker 4: in quibble of someone doing twenty million dollars to buoy
- 1:00:45Speaker 4: him off it just because they're now unrestricted free. Agents
- 1:00:48Speaker 4: but In bobo and pretty rest places stayed much rather
- 1:00:53Speaker 4: be back In seattle where they, started where they know.
- 1:00:55Speaker 4: Him just Not snyder does just want to do it
- 1:00:59Speaker 4: at the tender off on the. Board Josh, jones to
- 1:01:02Speaker 4: me was a one year fill. IN i, mean he
- 1:01:05Speaker 4: performed very well when he came in and had to
- 1:01:08Speaker 4: play For Charles cross at the end of the. Season
- 1:01:10Speaker 4: sure they'd like to have him, back but not a
- 1:01:12Speaker 4: type of guy you would overspend, on and certainly a
- 1:01:15Speaker 4: type of guy you could probably replaced with a comparable
- 1:01:17Speaker 4: veteran that's still in their Twenties.

- 1:02:32Speaker 2: Players who didn't get resigned Like, edward which IS i
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: think In, john you.
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: TRUST i think that's a simple way to look at,
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: it to be honest with, you and IT'S i know
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: it's not a hot take or anything like, that and
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: maybe it's blindly, naive But i'm gonna go with a
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: guy that has built A Super bowl champion two different
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: times from the ground. Up, BASICALLY i remember there was
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: not one guy on the Super bowl team this year
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: that was on The Super bowl team that won. It
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: so the guy knows how to build a, roster he
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: knows how to, win knows what he's, Doing AND i
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: would think that In john And mike, McDonald you. Trust
- 1:03:08Speaker 1: understanding what the market is talked about this last.
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: WEEK i like to use the house. Analogy go there's a.
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: Lot of neighborhoods In seattle that you probably don't want
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: to live, in and but they're in the city, limits
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: and the house has got plumbing that was put in
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: in nineteen twenty and no park's street parking, only and et,
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: cetera et. Cetera maybe the schools aren't great around, there
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: but those those houses are worth somehow one point five
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: million dollars and you're Saying i'm paying. That, nope you're
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: not paying what your What Kobe bryant got paid for.
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: That you're not paying Ken walker. That the value is
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: what the market. Says but every team has its own
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: value in terms of what they put put a value
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: on a. Player, ABSOLUTELY i think That Chris carson thing
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: is is a decent way to look at it. Too he,
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: SIGNED i, mean look at. You Chris carson's career For
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: seattle comes in seventh round. Pick great first year twenty,
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: eighteen eleven hundred, yards next year twelve hundred and thirty.
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: Yards he's kind of humming. Along you're, like, okay, dude can.
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: Play had two hundred and forty seven carries his rookie
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: year to seventy eight the next, year and then the
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: injuries drops down to twelve games, played one hundred and
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: forty one. Carries but they still sign him in the
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: offseason twenty twenty, one they sign. Him he plays four
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: more games in HIS nfl. CAREER i Think schneider's a
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: little leery about giving big money to a running back
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: in Ken walker healthy this, year but sharing. Carries they
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: just weren't going to take that.
- 1:04:42Speaker 12: Risk, well it's interesting because both sides of his, career
- 1:04:44Speaker 12: when you drafted him and then when they resigned him
- 1:04:48Speaker 12: are like kind of if you look at what, happened
- 1:04:51Speaker 12: it's endorsements of what they're. Doing, now, right you can
- 1:04:55Speaker 12: a get a guy later in the draft that is, productive,
- 1:04:58Speaker 12: Yes but then b you also don't want to give
- 1:05:01Speaker 12: someone you, know even if he's pretty. Young SO i
- 1:05:03Speaker 12: feel like he was Around Kenneth walker's age when they
- 1:05:05Speaker 12: gave him that, deal like mid, twenties and look what can.
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: Happen So Matt barry and his college scouting staff are. Elite,
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: yeah they've Given schneider the information of what's out. There all,
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: right let's geta come. More, Hey, Ann i'll be honest with.
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: You i'm not, frustrated of, COURSE i feel maybe. Disappointed
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: you lose some. Players kind of sucks a little, Bit
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: BUT i think The seahawks are gonna be all. Right
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: i'm free agency first. DAY i don't get overly excited about.
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: It but the other thing Is i've had to remind
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: myself In, john we. TRUST i have to trust What
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: John snyder's. Doing So i'm good.

- 1:11:07Speaker 1: thrilled about playing true elite.
- 1:11:09Speaker 2: Talent, yeah BUT.
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: I mean, again we'll just go, back whether It's Jacartia,
