- 0:00Any rumblings of a Justin Field's getting moved or or moving on somewhere else before
- 0:05the draft. Yes, there's a lot of rumblings. We just don't know
- 0:09where it's going to settle. I just think that, you know, the
- 0:13Kirk Covein situation was always going to be the first domino the ball he's we
- 0:17just discussed it in the earlier segment. You know, he's a quality starter,
- 0:22you know, may not have no more really upside than other would what
- 0:26he's done to this point in his career. Justin Fields the market is not
- 0:31as robust as people thought. I think he's got potential definitely find a home.
- 0:36We planned somewhere, but I think now that some of the quarterback you
- 0:40know dominos are kind of falling into place. I think we're going to see
- 0:44it. It's just it's not the market. Remember when the discussion was,
- 0:47well they want to know the insider guys. You know, I'm going to
- 0:53remember chef. They're saying, oh, the Bears are only one out of
- 0:57his one of the bears. They're only going to part with that pick.
- 1:00You know, if if it's if it's a if it's a bockbuster near a
- 1:04deal, and they're happy with fields, and they're with and now it's well,
- 1:08you know, the market for fields is not what it was, so
- 1:12they're gonna have to relook at that and consider it. I don't think doesn't
- 1:17sound like it's an option to keep feels draft, gatle Williams and let it
- 1:22play out. So I think a lot of what's happened is the market sets,
- 1:26the price sets, the value sets the interest, and I think we're
- 1:29gonna see it not pick off. But right now he's just not been the
- 1:34priority among NFL teams despite what I think a lot of the media thought.
- 1:38And now people are gonna come around to say, all right, let's look
- 1:41at what we can do with with justin fifth. I'll tell you where he'd
- 1:44be. I mean, it's not gonna go here, but you know where
- 1:47just football wise, way be the best fit in Philadelphia. Backing up Jalen
- 1:52Hurts, He's the same type of quarterback. So when you put your offense
- 1:56together, Jalen Hurts gets injured, you got him. Now he's not gonna
- 1:59want that, and his agent's not gonna want that. He's gonna want to
- 2:00go where he can compete. I get that, But football wise, It
- 2:05makes a lot of sense and probably could earn himself a big contract in the
- 2:09next go around where he could choose his team. Right now, it's going
- 2:14to be limited
