  Speaker 1: You can listen to the Inside the Birds podcast via

  all podcasting platforms just search Inside the Birds. Adam Kaplan
• 0:09
  is your Inside the Birds post today, and of course
• 0:12
  it is a Friday edition and we got a lot
• 0:15
  of fun stuff happening in the pills after the deadline.
• 0:18
  They are making news today because of their lineup, but
• 0:20
  the news is almost being trumped by the news in
• 0:23
  Dallas and Washington today. This is like a holy mackerel.
• 0:28
  This is like the dog going back in the flame, Like, uh,
• 0:32
  what is going on here? Michaeh Parsons, Adam Kaplan and
• 0:36
  Terry McLaurin two major names in the NFC East. Let's
• 0:41
  start there and get your take on it. Is this
• 0:44
  just that it's early training camp? Michael Parsons Terry McLaren
• 0:48
  both asked to be traded from their teams.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: All right, let's start with the one that is just
• 0:55
  happened right the last two hours of Michael Parsons through
• 0:59
  Twitter to this is where I saw it or x
• 1:03
  he requested a trade and he filled in the blank
• 1:04
  for he actually gave out more information than I knew.
• 1:08
  I knew about seventy five percent of it. But there
• 1:11
  was some stuff that was really fascinating. So basically what happened,
• 1:14
  Mike is because they were going to do Dak Prescott's contract,
• 1:20
  and they did it leading up to last seas. In fact,
• 1:22
  they got it done right before last season, and they waited.
• 1:25
  Of course, they wound up doing a deal. It was
• 1:28
  way over market at sixty million years, So that was
• 1:30
  their big deal they're going to do. They did some
• 1:32
  others by the way, but they made it clear to
• 1:35
  Parsons and his agent, David Mullagetta, that they couldn't do both.
• 1:40
  The cash ben was just too big, okay, So it
• 1:44
  was just to get done this year. Parties made it
• 1:47
  pretty clear through his agent to make sure that they
• 1:52
  talked to the Cowboys. Well, basically Jerry has not return
• 1:56
  any messages. They basically Parsons and his agent have gone
• 2:01
  through the contract negotiators, Todd Williams and Adam Persica and
• 2:07
  there's the guys who handled contracts. So nothing could get
• 2:11
  done without Jerry signing off on it because he's the
• 2:13
  general manager and the owner. And that's that's what was
• 2:16
  the last line of defense. That's that's when things get moving.
• 2:19
  But the thing is, now, this is what I knew
• 2:22
  but Parsons took it a step further. So basically the
• 2:25
  word got around and got out and I had heard
• 2:28
  about it that Jerry Jones was talking to Micah in
• 2:32
  the off season privately and they were talking contract. And
• 2:37
  what Parsons apparently did is he ended it. He He's like,
• 2:40
  wait a minute, are we are we we're not negotiating contract.
• 2:43
  Why we talk? They talked pretty heavy about what it
• 2:45
  could look like, guaranteed money and all sorts of stuff,
• 2:49
  and then Jerry Jones spoke started training him as oh yeah,
• 2:52
  Micah and I talked a lot, smartest player I can
• 2:55
  ever remember talking contracts. And so basically there was a
• 2:58
  negotiation done in Parsons didem quite know that he was
• 3:00
  he was getting that. It was that deep into it.
• 3:03
  And word from the Cowboys, from certain people was, you
• 3:06
  know what, I think we've got a framework for a
• 3:07
  deal here. But the problem is the agent. You should
• 3:11
  never good agents, and David Mulliget is one of the
• 3:15
  top agents out there. They typically don't want to give
• 3:17
  up leverards shi to wait till the club, we'll call them,
• 3:19
  then we'll start start talking. But that hasn't happened here.
• 3:23
  So that's where it stands. So Parsons he had enough.
• 3:25
  He's frustrated, he's having to hold in. He's at practice,
• 3:29
  going new he's not working. He's going to meetings, but
• 3:32
  he's not practicing. He'd had enough. And see his teammates
• 3:35
  are are Mike is you know, are chiming in? Stephen
• 3:39
  Lamb I know exactly what ceed he's talking about. And
• 3:41
  then Mike didn't appreciate, you know, he talked Jerry Jones
• 3:43
  talked last week.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: Mike.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: I'm sure you saw this. But while the last time
• 3:46
  they did a deal like this guy missed two THURSDA
• 3:49
  of the season. That was Dak Prescott. So and then
• 3:52
  and then Stephen Jones. I don't know why. Stephen Jones's
• 3:54
  son said this. Who's the CEO? He said, well, Mike
• 3:58
  has got to want to get a deal done. Like
• 4:00
  what does that says to mean?
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well he has got to want to get a
• 4:03
  deal done. But instead he put out a huge expository
• 4:07
  today that basically said I no longer want to be here.
• 4:10
  So in reality, do we see Michael Parsons on another
• 4:13
  team or do we see him in Dallas.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: They're not gonna be bullied They're just not going to
• 4:19
  be that. Mclaurin's different story will get set a minute. No,
• 4:22
  it's super highly unlikely that they would trade him. He's
• 4:25
  our best football player. But this is standing operating procedure
• 4:31
  to have contractual issues. Now this has gotten ugly, let's
• 4:34
  face it. Teams will call we know that's gonna happen
• 4:38
  to check in. I'm sure they'll be told no, dice.
• 4:43
  Now what I would tell you is, and I've talked
• 4:46
  about this on your show many times over the years
• 4:48
  about when I called the Raiders about Cleil Mack in
• 4:50
  twenty eighteen, they told me in June and July, early
• 4:53
  part August, there's your chance we're not trading him. Stop asking.
• 4:57
  All your reporters are calling, He's not being traded, John
• 5:02
  Gruden basically common to your personnel control from Reggie McKenzie.
• 5:06
  He told mackenzie, I don't have the date of it.
• 5:08
  I think it was late August. You know what he's
• 5:11
  not gonna report, Let's trade Khalil Mack. And Reggie actually
• 5:14
  went on the record saying he reluctantly did it. He
• 5:16
  didn't want to do it. Now, if Jerry Jones, if
• 5:21
  it got super ugly. Maybe they take calls, maybe they listen,
• 5:24
  but right now it's highly unlikely. I've used this phrase
• 5:27
  for eight years on Inside the Birds and never see never.
• 5:30
  But the reason why I came up with that is
• 5:32
  because you know what, Howie especially, we went to the
• 5:35
  Dary Sleigh situation when they told him earlier in the
• 5:38
  day three years ago, okay, we're cutting you. Three hours
• 5:41
  later if they did an extension with more guaranteed money.
• 5:43
  So I've learned my lesson, you could be told it's
• 5:46
  not going to happen, don't worry about it, and then
• 5:48
  something could change. I just don't see any way they
• 5:50
  would do that with their best football player, who, by
• 5:54
  the way, is is done everything they've asked. I from everything,
• 5:59
  I know, everything that Parsons said is true in terms
• 6:03
  of handling it the right way. Didn't cross this distraction.
• 6:06
  Now he should not be He shouldn't have to practice
• 6:09
  like he should do a holding because Mike Keith, with
• 6:13
  the with the forty million a year deals getting done. Parsons,
• 6:17
  who's going to play on just his fifth year option
• 6:20
  at just over twenty four million, You can't play on
• 6:23
  that deal. You just can't. So they know they have
• 6:26
  to do something.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, we'll keep an eye on that obviously,
• 6:28
  as the NL East has been kind of flipped upside down,
• 6:31
  or not the NL least the nfcast has been kind
• 6:33
  of flipped upside down today because well not today only,
• 6:37
  but yesterday. Terry McLaren apparently he has gone through a
• 6:42
  contract situation all off season long. He wants about twenty
• 6:45
  seven million dollars a year or thirty million dollars a year.
• 6:47
  The team's offering around twenty seven million dollars a year,
• 6:50
  and McLaren now wants to be traded. Is this a
• 6:53
  legitimate story or will McLaren be in Washington?
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: It's legitimate. I'm gonna explain something which I learned the
• 6:59
  heart way many many years ago. So when AGM was
• 7:03
  not they when the players drafted, there's what we call
• 7:06
  less of allegiance to the player. You don't feel like,
• 7:08
  oh God, this is my guy, I drafted him. It's
• 7:11
  not that Adam Peters doesn't want want him. They absolutely
• 7:14
  want to extend his contract. But we have to understand
• 7:17
  and I'm not saying this is the right way to
• 7:19
  look at it, but it's just the way it is.
• 7:23
  Terry McLaurin turns thirty in April. Okay, so he's twenty nine.
• 7:28
  He's twenty nine right now. You have to be And
• 7:31
  this is what a lot of people in the league thought.
• 7:34
  These feelers were crazy at extending and paying TJ. A.
• 7:38
  Watt for guaranteeing three years of his contract. Even if
• 7:43
  you do Mike a three year extension, you're going to
• 7:46
  have to guarantee you two years. Now, that's not a
• 7:48
  big deal. But he's also and this is not his fault.
• 7:53
  His numbers aren't like super great, But you always have
• 7:55
  to look at what's the context. Look at the quarterbacks
• 7:57
  prior to last season. Not very good quarterback played, not
• 8:00
  very good on line play, what a couple of There
• 8:03
  are three things that I know about the situation and
• 8:05
  how how this worthyse things stand. They acknowledge, They know
• 8:10
  that McLaurin is not only one of the best players,
• 8:13
  he's super high class, high character, also very durable. He's
• 8:18
  everything wanting a teammate. He's not a dominant physical guy.
• 8:22
  He's around six feet two o seven to two ten.
• 8:26
  They don't want to do Metchifs contract. By the way,
• 8:28
  DK Metchiffs is about two years younger. People forget about
• 8:30
  that mckiss a little bit younger. But Terry McLaurin has
• 8:34
  done on another circumstances, he's been a terrific football player.
• 8:38
  I just don't get the sense that they seem as
• 8:41
  a big time thirty two to thirty three million dollars
• 8:43
  year guy. Now we are in early August, Mike, these
• 8:47
  things almost always work out, as you know, like ninety
• 8:50
  seven out of one hundred, something happens where even the
• 8:53
  guy doesn't get the deal that he's looking for. They
• 8:56
  do a bridge deal, they do something to make each something,
• 8:59
  get this overwet so they can move on. But now
• 9:03
  we have to kind of see what McLaurin does here.
• 9:04
  I talk to someone close to him this week who
• 9:07
  felt that they were ways apart, and everything I've heard
• 9:11
  would suggests that's still the case. I don't see them
• 9:16
  doing thirty three million beating the Metcalf deal. I just
• 9:19
  don't see that Mike guy, based on again, they didn't
• 9:24
  draft him this this front of us. I know people
• 9:26
  don't like to hear that, but that that's real and
• 9:29
  Metcalf's making actually thirty three million, thirty two point nine
• 9:32
  to nine million, so right, now it's they're not close
• 9:36
  to that.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Well, those are two big stories to keep an eye on. Obviously,
• 9:39
  inside the NFC East, you got Michael Parsons and Chary
• 9:43
  McLaurin both requesting trades and that could Boy, if those
• 9:47
  two guy didn't trade it, it would be a huge
• 9:50
  shift in the NFC. With the Eagles obviously it's still
• 9:53
  the favorites. You would have two teams that would have
• 9:55
  huge losses. Now, one guy, Michael Parsons, he is a
• 9:59
  pretty good rusher. You've been around this Eagles team. You've
• 10:02
  seen a couple of practices. Now we're about a week in.
• 10:05
  Uh defense does the Eagles defense? I mean people wondering
• 10:08
  he got all these new faces over there. How's it
• 10:11
  coming together? Does it look like it's coming together? Or
• 10:14
  is there something missing?
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I think it's See here's the thing, Like we've
• 10:17
  used this phrase for eight years. Depth is not about
• 10:20
  how many players you have. It's about the quality of
• 10:21
  the players. And let me start at ed show. Noland Smith,
• 10:28
  you know, has coming back from a serious injury. You
• 10:29
  know he's healthy and fine, he's practicing, But well, Nolan
• 10:33
  Smith be the same. He really came on. He had
• 10:35
  over ten sacks if you include the playoffs. Had a
• 10:37
  great playoff run. By the way, let we know that
• 10:41
  he's going to be one of their d rushers, Like,
• 10:42
  that's not question. The other thing is a jelic Hunt
• 10:44
  will start. He's not a high end d rusher yet,
• 10:47
  He's just not. He's very talented, he's got great left
• 10:50
  and athleticism. He's put on the side that they want
• 10:52
  him to, but he's unproven as a pass rusher. These
• 10:55
  our's a lot got off to a quick start. He's
• 10:56
  kind of faded. Josh Uche is taking more staffs over him. Uh,
• 11:02
  he's been really steady, steady. They really like him. The
• 11:05
  conquerors there that they that Cleveland cut Powell Ryland, you know,
• 11:08
  is a rookie, probably won't dress on game day. And
• 11:12
  then Johab Campbell's in developmental periods, has been worked with
• 11:15
  on the edge, but he's his reps in practice are
• 11:19
  really inside backer. So Mike, I think what I think
• 11:23
  what Eagles will do is they'll assess this position through camp,
• 11:28
  through the preseason, then make a decision whether they'll sign
• 11:30
  a guy like the Jarius Smith, Preston Smith, Matthew Judah
• 11:34
  and Shaq Barratt even Clowney though clowny stuff, I don't
• 11:37
  see it why he wants to be a starter. They
• 11:41
  don't need anyone to start, They just need a third
• 11:43
  h rusher, Mike, like Ojelari's got to be the third dresser.
• 11:47
  He's been with the Giants. That's that's the guy needs
• 11:49
  to show up to be quite frank, that's what's going
• 11:51
  to happen here.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: Well, definitely keep an eye on that. And obviously, by
• 11:55
  the way, there would be a problem. Zero point zero
• 11:57
  percent chance the Cowboy would ever tree with the Eagles.
• 11:59
  Michael Park, anybody out there who's thinking about that, you
• 12:03
  can cross that off your list.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: How's the cornerback situation going right now?
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: And this is another problem, Mike, It's it's really dead
• 12:13
  even between Keey Ringo and Dory Jackson. Ringo's taken more
• 12:18
  first team snaps in the last three days, but Jackson
• 12:21
  took them a majority of them the first three days
• 12:23
  of the first three days. So it's some people might
• 12:27
  say Ringle has got a little bit of an advantage just
• 12:28
  because he's the guy that want to win it, no
• 12:31
  doubt about that. But we're going to have to get
• 12:33
  through training camp but I would tell you though, Mike,
• 12:37
  if they're not happy, and we'll get to the free agents.
• 12:40
  They're also looked potentially for a trade. Why because they're
• 12:44
  not just going to accept that they can't get back
• 12:45
  to the super Bowl. That's not the way the Eagles think.
• 12:48
  And they're really young on that side of football. But
• 12:52
  they're just not getting enough play at the cornerback position.
• 12:57
  They got to get better play. Now. Who are the
• 12:59
  free Asians out there? The Sante Samuel Junior would be
• 13:01
  a starter. He's coming back from a neck issue. He
• 13:04
  hasn't He needs to get cleared like you could get
• 13:07
  cleared in a penalty, but you got to get cleared
• 13:09
  by clubs. So he's got to visit clubs and get
• 13:11
  take physical to see where he's at. Stefan Gilmour is
• 13:14
  out there, mid thirties. He's actually older than Darius Slay Mike.
• 13:18
  He's not a great fit for the Eagle scheme because
• 13:20
  he's more of a man corner. The Eagles play heavy
• 13:22
  zone now. Kennel Fuller Mike is a good name. He
• 13:25
  played for Vic Fangio two years ago. That would be
• 13:27
  a name to watch. And Rassell Douglas he's a zone corner.
• 13:31
  You know, time has kind of taken off. He's around thirty,
• 13:34
  but you know what, he's got length and he would
• 13:36
  fit from his own standpoint, But Kennel Fuller would be
• 13:39
  the guy there at a corner if they look towards free.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: I feel like Russell Douglas just bounces all over the
• 13:44
  place every single year and then always seems to make
• 13:46
  like a big play somewhere wherever he ends up.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: His best ball was with Green Bay. That that's where
• 13:51
  he played really really well with Eagles, like they actually
• 13:56
  reduced his RFA tenor one year. I remember doing some
• 13:59
  more porta on and I've just not seen that before.
• 14:03
  He was immature here. He had to grow up, he
• 14:05
  had to kind of leave and get things right, and
• 14:07
  he became a quality player. I mean, he's a you'd
• 14:10
  rather have him at this point. It's your third corner,
• 14:11
  but you could start if you didn't too.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: All right, what about the safety spot?
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: We know there's a big battle going on there is
• 14:17
  this a in house fixture?
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Do they need to start going through the rolodecks?
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: All right? So blanket ships starting. Mccooba worked today, non contact.
• 14:25
  That's good. He's back from the shoulder this is and
• 14:29
  with Sidney Brown they got to get through this thing
• 14:32
  that and they've got Tristan McCollums. So as long as
• 14:36
  nobody suffer as an injury Mike where they're not gonna
• 14:38
  be ready for the start of the season, they don't
• 14:39
  really need to do anything else. So like Andre sam
• 14:41
  number thirty one, who was an undrected free agent last year.
• 14:44
  Now it is a buyer's market. Mic of course Justin
• 14:47
  Simmons would be the number one guy. Why because he
• 14:49
  knows the Vangio scheme. Marcus Williams of the Eagles had
• 14:52
  significant interest, made a huge offer to many years ago.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: Mike.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: You might remember many years ago he signed with wind
• 15:00
  Up signing with Baltimore. He was cut by the Ravens.
• 15:02
  He didn't play, He got bench last season. So he's
• 15:05
  not a guy you really want to go after. But
• 15:06
  he's out there. Jordan Poyer, former Eagle, by the way,
• 15:11
  near the enemy's career.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: Oregon State man, Oregon State.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and he was a boy. That's what I'm sure
• 15:17
  the Eagles would like to have back. They didn't give him.
• 15:19
  He was a seventh thrond pick. They didn't give him.
• 15:20
  God enough Tryandre Diggs who played for a number of teams.
• 15:25
  Washington you might remember him, and then Seattle and Tennessee.
• 15:31
  He still wants to play. He's out there. Von Bells,
• 15:33
  longtime start in the NFL on the back nine of
• 15:36
  his career. Jalen Mills by the way, he started for
• 15:38
  the Jets last season, Marcus May who's had a number
• 15:42
  of injuries, former starter for the Saints. And Shashaan Gibsonson
• 15:45
  here in his career. So it's a buyer's market. Egles
• 15:47
  don't need to do anything now, but they have to
• 15:51
  make sure that they're happy with mccoober or Sidney Brown
• 15:54
  and then they'll be fine. If not, that's a list
• 15:56
  of freezers.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Does this feel like that Simmons had just been kind
• 16:00
  of sitting and waiting around in the event that the
• 16:03
  you know, Eagles got a chance to evaluate they call him.
• 16:07
  Does it feel like that or does does he have
• 16:09
  no interest from any other team?
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: No, it's simple it not a lot of safety has
• 16:14
  to sign. The last actually the first two is training.
• 16:17
  Can very few sign and it's over glutted and he's
• 16:21
  a system fit. No, the Eagles are I don't know,
• 16:24
  I don't I don't feel like Simmons is waiting. I
• 16:26
  don't get that that sense. I'm sure his Asian Todd
• 16:29
  Francis is talking to he was about it. But the
• 16:32
  Eagles really want mccouber brown to step up here and
• 16:34
  seize the job. Cidy Brown's got a ton of reps
• 16:37
  by the way, with the ones barbar's because mccooba is
• 16:40
  a rookie and then got hurt and you know, City
• 16:42
  now knows the scheme and last summer d in practice,
• 16:45
  so now he's ready to roll. He's healthy. You know,
• 16:48
  they they played him a safety. He's played a little
• 16:50
  nickel in training camp, so let's see what happens. I
• 16:54
  don't know that he's a great fit for the scheme
• 16:56
  because they really need to cover safety. But he is
• 16:59
  getting better, all right.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Uh, there's football at four today from Adam Kevin. By
• 17:02
  the way, it's alumni weekend. Is there a certain Philly
• 17:06
  alumni that you would be excited to bump into it
• 17:10
  Citizens Bank Park if you were going to a game.
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: You should see this list. There's like sixty names on
• 17:14
  this list, but.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Is my one of my favorite Phillies? So to Gucci
• 17:19

  Speaker 3: Souci. Oh, that's a good pool. That's a good though.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: Dude, Bosher and I have such a we we love

  the obscuse. Like Rod Booker's one of my favorites.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: Rod Booker, there's a good one who.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Couldn't hit his way. Say, I'm old enough to remember
• 17:34
  you and I talked about Larry McWilliams, you know, a
• 17:36
  couple of months ago. I could believe you got that
• 17:39
  one because he had to remember the funny delivery. Yeah,
• 17:41
  of course, but I'll say this much. I forgot how
• 17:44
  great Jay Roll was j Roll and then I and
• 17:48
  I totally forgot he the most hits in Philly's history,
• 17:50
  right over Mike Schmidt.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: I got that late in his career he ended up
• 17:53
  passing him.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: I forgot how great of a leadoff hitter he was.
• 17:56
  And the one year what did he have? Like twenty
• 17:59
  five trip was the something one year is.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: Crazy boy won the MVP.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: He was unbelievable. Yeah, he he's not to me. He's
• 18:08
  obviously going to the Phillies Hall of Fame, but he's not in.
• 18:10
  I don't think it'll be mll be and you know,
• 18:13
  being then Pro football, Pro Baseball Hall of fame. But
• 18:15
  what a great Philly and great dude. And uh, I
• 18:18
  honestly no, my SCHMIDI was right up there for me.
• 18:22
  So I'll enough to remember Gary Maddox and certain Phillies
• 18:25
  you're growing up. That's a tough one. But I favorite
• 18:28
  Phillies moment, well two of them. Nineteen eighty tug McGraw,
• 18:34
  you know, obviously closing out the game against the Royals.
• 18:36
  But the brad Lidge was it if you had the playoffs,
• 18:40
  was a forty seven for forty seven, forty eight for
• 18:43
  forty eight. I've never seen anything like that in my life.
• 18:46
  I mean that tug By the way was incredible in
• 18:48
  nineteen eighty incredible. I don't you know. I don't have
• 18:51
  the numbers in front of me. I know he was dominant,
• 18:53
  but did what brad Lidge did. I don't think he
• 18:55
  could be done it. I don't. I can't see anyone
• 18:57
  going perfect.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: Well it's alumni, we can.
