Football at Four: Realistic Return for A.J. Brown?; Eagles Potential Free Agency Plans · Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: The legal tampering starts on Monday, but when Jeff Boscher
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: is on for Football at four next week, everything will
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: be official. Most obviously everybody talking about AJ Brown, and
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: then Stefan Diggs gets released today that will only heighten
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: the conversation, I would imagine. But it sounds like, according
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: to Mike Garafula, they're looking for a Quinn Williams type
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: of deal, which is more then they gave up to
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: get AJ Brown back at twenty twenty two. So it
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: doesn't sound like they're all that realistic about trying to
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: move AJ Brown.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: No, but that's what you do. You try to take
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: advantage of a marketplace. You try.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Plus, when they traded for AJ Brown, I don't think
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: he had had a fourteen hundred yard year, certainly not
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: consecutive ones like he did.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Have earlier in the career with his Eagles.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: But you're right, he's older, he's not coming off his
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: best seasons productively, and maybe about him. But you're always
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: going to ask, yeah, for as much as you think
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: you can.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: So do you think they ask and dig their heels
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: in or that's just the starting point they're willing. It
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: takes something to lower because Remember, this is a twenty
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: million dollar over twenty million dollar pit. So if the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: juice worth to squeeze to trade him for a second
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: round pick and the third round pick, if you got
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to take a twenty million dollar cap hit.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not really worried about the cap hit.
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: And I think the people who follow the Eagles, I
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: mean when I say follow, I mean NFL teams aren't
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: going to worry about that either, because they know the
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: way the Eagles do business. They know that Eagles are
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: always among the NFL leaders in dead cap money. It's
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: about a cash spend, and Eagles, you know there, will
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: save on cash spend by trading AJ Brown and they
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: want to be able to have cash to give some
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: of their own in house free agents.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: So I don't think that's going to be a deterrent.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: I don't think that the cap hit is going to
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: force another team to have to pony up more. I
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: just think that the Eagles will take the best deal
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: that they can get, and if they can.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Get that right, well, I guess the one question would
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: be is if you trade AJ Brown, you got the
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: twenty million dollar cap And I agree they don't care
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: about that if it's the right deal. Like I said before,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: right before you came on, Jeff, they traded Carson Wentz
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: and took the cap pit because they got a first
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: round pick in return? Do they trade Carson Wentz to
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: take the cap pit if they get a third round pick?
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: I don't know, No, I just I'm saying I just
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: think that the cappit is irrelevant though, because Aj Brown
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: is a player who can help them win a lot
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: of games next year. So it's like, like how he
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: have said, it's not like he feels like he has
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: to trade.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Saying that's what they don't feel like they have to
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: unless you give me what I want.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Or close to it. I mean again, yeah, what how
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: he probably in his mind.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Believes is a good compensation for Aj Brown is a
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: little bit different than probably what he's saying to teams,
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: you know.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: And then then he's just waiting to see who makes
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: the best offer.
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: Right you ask Hi?
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: And then if somebody said, now the question is first
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: round pick? Is that hey, uh, the Patriots are going
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: to give you a pick. It's going to be deep
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: in the draft. Is that good enough of a first
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: round pick though? Or is it any first round pick?
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Makes the deal? You know, feasible for.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Me, if I'm not mistaken, I should go back and
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: google this because I'm sure it's out there. I believe
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: when Carson Wentz first was sort of being you know, like,
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: all right, they're going to trade him, that there were
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: reports about the Eagles asking for like two first round
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: picks for him. Okay, so that that I'm pretty sure
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: that that was the case, So we'll have to go back.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: I'll go back and look.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: But that's my point on you set a public asking
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: price really high and then see what's worth it. Now
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: I've thought about this Patriots thing, and part of me,
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: and I'm probably overthinking it, would probably be intrigued by
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: getting a future first round pick from the Patriots.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Well year Quinn Williams trade, they got a twenty twenty
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: six second round pick and a twenty twenty seven first round.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Pick, right, And it makes sense because the Patriots have
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: not only do they have a low pick, but what
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: are the odds that the Patriots are going to go
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: back to the Super Bowl or finished with the top
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: three record fell again next year? Probably not very high
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: compared to maybe just being eleven or twelve wins. Right,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: So even with aj Brown, So there might be something
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: there to that where you'd rather have the first round
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: pick two years down the road if But you know,
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: the Patriots are smart too. I'm sure they understand that
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: that part of the situation as well.
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: All right, Jeff Boscher Football at four. What about that?
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Get your take on the Goddard thing here, because apparently
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: they're talking but likely going to free agency. Is he
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: on the list of priority for the Philadelphia Eagles or
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: that just unrealistic that they'll be able to afford him.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: No, I mean it's not unrealistic until they know what
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: the market is.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: If he gets you know, if he gets like a
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: multi year deal and you're talking about man, I forgot
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: to look at the top that, like, you know, ten
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: to twelve million a year, then that's.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Probably not going to be feasible, probably, I'll say. But
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: sure they would love to have all their players back,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: But there's.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Nobody that would think like they're like, man, I don't
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: want this got back. They certainly won't Gotter back. But
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: how realistic is you got a guy coming off sixty catches,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: eleven touchdowns. I would imagine he prices himself out.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's very possible. But you know, he's a guy
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: who's had an injury history. He's not young anymore. It
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: wasn't very good as blocking last year. These are all
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: things that could wind up maybe scaring off certain teams
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: from giving him guaranteed money in the second or the
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: third year of a deal. You know, I mean, I
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: think that that's a big part of it. So if
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: good that in the past, in the past, I was
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: just gonna say, in the past, when the Eagles have
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: come back from a combine, right, they have, when they've
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: had in house free agents, they've been able to come
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: to extensions with the guys that they prioritized before free
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: agency started.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: And here we are, they've been back from the combine.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: It is now, you know, almost the end of Wednesday,
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: So now you're looking at Thursday.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: You only had like two sort of business.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Days left before Monday when the tampering begins. So the
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: closer we get to the weekend right with no in
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: house extension, the more it seems logical that it's going
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: to be tougher to retain these guys because then offers
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: are going to start coming in, and you know, if
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: the Eagles are sitting here still kind of trying to
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: figure things out with aj Brown, then they kind of
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: could stand to lose some guys. So it's a really
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: they have to have this sort of situated sooner than later.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I guess my follow up to the godd thing would be,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: if Goddar walks, what's the plan? I mean draft free agency.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: They don't have a guy on the roster.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: And they would obviously have to.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: When you said draft free agency, it is certainly not
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: an either or, it is a both. And like I've said,
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: even if they retain Dallas Goddard, they will need to
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: use draft and free agency to rebuild that position.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Right because last year we all anticipated that they would
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: draft a tight end to be the heir apparent to Goddard.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: That never happened. So they could go to the reversal, right,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: go back and bring a guy like Zach Ertz in
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: on a cheap one year deal and then draft a
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: guy have him play behind Ertz, something to that effect.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't be shocked if they went back down a
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: road like that. Get a guy who's a little bit
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: of a veteran that could play still, but then you
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: can kind of make that change over somewhere in the middle.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: Of the year.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because you know, once Monday comes and the league
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: New Year begins, the only tight end that they have
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: under contract I believe would be Cam Latu, maybe EJ.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Jenkins also, I have to check, but the only one
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: who's you know, played some significant snaps would be Cam
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: Latsu and they were playing him at fullback. So it's
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: a position that they're pretty bare in the cupboard with football.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: For Jeff Boscher from the Inside the Birds podcasts Inside
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: the Birds dot Com, one of the things you guys
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: discussed on the most recent Inside the Birds is the
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: edge rusher. That's Jalen Phillips. It sounds like he's the
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: priority here, But I bring up a scenario that I
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: want to get your take on. Uh, is there somebody
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: on the market that's better than Phillips that you would
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: say if I had to pay Phillips x, I might
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: as well just pay so and so why.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, Trey Hendrickson's a better player. I mean, he's
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: an elite defensive end. But Trey Hendrickson, for his I
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: believe his entire career has been a four to three
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: hands in the dirt defensive end.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: I don't know that he's played in a Fangio like
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: different defense where he's been standing up and dropping occasionally
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: and you know, doing things like that. So in that regard,
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure he's the greatest fit in the world
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: for what the Eagles do. I mean, great pass rushers
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: are great pass rushers. But you saw Bryce Huff what happened.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: If you don't really fit the scheme, this just might
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: not be the place for you. And then I think
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: if you don't bring back Jill and Phillips, then I
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: think there's some wisdom to saying, Hey, if Cosby and
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: yes it costs us had to pay to keep Jill and.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Phillips, you probably feel pretty good about that.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: What well Phillips. I don't know what kind of impact
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: do you think Phillips had.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: I think he had a good impact. Absolutely. I think
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: he's a really good player. If you just look at
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: it in sacks, you're probably a little disappointed and ask
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: game or two that he played with the Eagles. But
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: he has the B type exactly that you want to
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: be a very good, above average two way edge for
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: the Eagles, meaning he can defend the run well, can
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: obviously rush the passer. He's a quality human being. He
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: knows Vic Fangio's defense. He's thrived in Vic Fangio's defense.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: So I don't want to just like, if you just
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: look at his the small Eagles sample size, it's probably
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: not enough. He's overcome some tremendous injuries to be a
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: pretty good player. You mentioned the name like maybe Bradley
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: Chubb who was already really I mean, who they could
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: like sign right now while we're talking, if they if
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: they wanted to for some of the same reasons I
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: just mentioned about Jaalen Phillips with no the scheme and fitting,
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: it would be a pretty decent alternative that. I think
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: that guy's been a two time Pro bowler as well,
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: So that would be a name that you would look
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: for along with Crosby.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: All right, Jeff Buscher football at for and of course
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: the legal tampering begins on Monday. Yeah, the Crosby thing
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: is gonna be interesting to see.
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Do you think the Eagles and the Raiders could just
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: make a call and say, hey, you're gonna draft a
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: quarterback Mendoza one, we'll give you Brown, you give us Crosby,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: and let's just do that.
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: Does that work?
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Oh? Man? I don't think the Raiders are looking for
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: veteran players. I think they're looking at for y'all.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: If you're bringing in a young quarterback, do you want
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: to give him a wide receiver right off the bat?
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah you would, but you know you do have brock powers.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: He's a pretty good he may not be a wide receiver,
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: but he's a pretty good pass catching target. Who's the
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: other guy that they have that's that wasn't bad that
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: they got from the Patriots?
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Is he still there again?
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: No?
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: They traded him to the Jaguars, and that Jacoby Myers.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Jacoby Myers trading and they got gent as that you
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: would have running back, tight end and then it's your receiver.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that they would probably be looking toward
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: younger free agency or the draft for their wide receiver help.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Over at Philly Voice, Jeff You wrote about where Eagles
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: free agents could end up. Are you hearing a lot
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: of the buzz about guys like Nacobe Dean read blanket
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: ship and the possibility of them all landing in Dallas?
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean I'm hearing fans, like you know, crapping
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: their pants about it.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: And emailing and tweeting about it. But I wrote that as.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: A non buzzword like non intel, based just my best
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: stab on what I know about the league, what I
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: know about the teams that need certain players, and what
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: I know about the Eagles players, and I thought I
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: had some pretty good fits there.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: We'll see if it works out well.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Nakobe Dean, you know it's funny because obviously he would
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: be the least likely of all the major free agents
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: to return.
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: Do you agree, Uh?
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so he's likely someplace else. Uh Read Blankenship.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: I just don't. I feel like somebody looks.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: At Read Blanketship as the guy that they're willing to
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: overpay because he's on, you know, a championship team and
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: he won a Super Bowl, and he could be the
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: guy that kind of.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: You know, if you have a new coordinator.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: So I feel like blanketship chances are coming back are
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: pretty minimal.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: I think they're Yeah, I think you're probably right. I
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: question just how much the overpay is gonna be.
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: But might be too much for the Eagles because we've
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: seen this before, like Marcus uh T J.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Edwards and Marcus Epps were similar stories.
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: Undrafted rookie free agents became starters, really good left but
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: they never really reset the market. They they signed modest
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: deals and the Eagles still didn't bring him back.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: I would say, Jeff, see if you agree, though, if
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: you ask Reid Blanketship, he would probably rather stay here
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: for less.
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: But it's gonna get a deal where he just can't
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: say no.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: To no, because I know that TJ. Edwards wanting to
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: stay with the Eagles.
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: Right, but he got a deal that he couldn't say
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: no to.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but it wasn't a great deal, So I mean,
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: like it was, it was it was a very very
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: mid market deal. It was just a mid market deal,
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: and it was more than the Eagles were willing to give.
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: So what I'm saying is, I think it'll come down
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: to the most money, even if it's not the best.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Money, because I think deep down, if you asked Reed
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: blanket Chip, he would say, there's no way I want
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: to leave here. Like I think he genuinely wants to
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: be here, and him and Cooper and all that, you know,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: everything they've built together. This is a guy from a
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: very small school and and and made.
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: His bones here.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: For him to have to leave, I think it's gonna
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: be kind of like a very very hard and disappointing
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: for him, but I think he is going to have
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: to come to terms with I'm gonna have to leave
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: and I don't want to.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's exactly what Edwards had to do, and probably
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: what Marcus as well well Edwards did.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Go Edwards went to Chicago. He is from isn't he
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: from Chicago's.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: So that was a good sort of Uh.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: I don't want to call it a consolation produe, but
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: at least it was a good perk for that he
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: could be comfortable there. He was from. There probably was
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: his second choice to the Eagles. But in that regard,
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: I just when you're I just don't know how much
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: money the Eagles I expect to have in cash to
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: be able to pay him when they've also got the
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: Jalen Carter's and the Jordan Davis and uh, you know,
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: next year will be Hunt and Quinna Mitchell and maybe Cooper.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: By the way, we'll talk about this. This probably isn't
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: the different, but that trade that Kansas City made, trading
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: McDuffie to that has some major major implications for the
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Eagles next year when it comes to Cooper has implications.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I definitely want to hear that, Jeff Boscher
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: from the Inside of the Birds Podcast, You have any
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: interest in Makai Beckton coming back?
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: You want to sign him on a one year minor,
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: you know, for depth? Sure?
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: Without statlin here?
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I don't think you forgot how to
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: play guard, just the Chargers think so.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: No, I mean some of that is financial too, I'm sure,
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: but yeah, I mean I don't, I don't.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: I don't see this. That guy is like a I
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: don't think it's gonna make the biggest difference.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: Actually, Actually, to be fair, now, that thing about it,
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: their focus on offensive line should probably be guys who.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Move laterally more than north south.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: So yeah, again, do you want to bring him back
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: for depth or to have a guy?
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's fine. He's not gonna cost you anything.
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: But I don't know that that is the mold of
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: offensive linemen that they're gonna be hunting in the future.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, we talked to Adam yesterday. He gave
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: us all the positions where there is some depth in
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: free agency center guard, not as much as tackle. So
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: we'll keep an eye on what the Eagles do because
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: they're gonna have to to add a little bit of
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: depth on the offensive line.
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: Can't do it all through the drafting.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Quite frankly, they have not hit in the draft on
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: all the depth pieces that they normally have. Deepest positions
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: on offense. As Adams said yesterday, guard center, weakest positions,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: left tackle, right tackle. So if you want to try
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: to get some interior help, there you go.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: I'm glad you brought it up, because I mean, listen,
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: we give Howe a lot of credit and he deserves it,
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: no doubt, but there are some flaws. Right in Day three,
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: They've tried to upgrade. They've tried to add depth to
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: the interior offensive line. Drafted a kid out of Michigan
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: a couple of years ago whose name is all of
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: a sudden escaping me. But he was with the Cowboys
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: last year. It just didn't work out. Trevor Keagan, thank you.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: They drafted the kid, McMahon, the center out of NC State.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: I think two years ago. The Rams claimed him off waiver.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: So you know, they got Lampkin last year. You know,
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: they haven't hit on the depth of their offensive line
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: as much as they used to, like when you had
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: guys like Big V and Isaac Sam around. Picking a
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: fifth round pick that really came through for you. They
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: need to get get them right.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Well, Monday, the legal tampering at this time on Monday, Well,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: the Eagles have something that we'll be discussing on Monday.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Is it, pat What time is it for sure? Oh?
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: Oh, well the Eagles have I think so, Mike, I
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: think there will be some kind of either extension, free
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: agent out out of free agency signing trade.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: Okay, right, like right now, you're starting to see guys
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: get cut backed in Diggs others.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: Do the Eagles have cut candidates.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: Cut candidates.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: Like you to help them, to help Carter because of
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: the the contract is so gigantic for this next year,
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: the way the Jets structured that, there's no way the
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: Eagles are paying them whatever a million.
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: And the people forgot that Michael Carter was here.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: But yes, yeah, yeah, I know that wasn't the sexiest
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: name I was given you guys, but that one really
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: jumps out.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, we'll see because they don't have a
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: lot of cap space, so we'll see if they can
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: maybe trim some to get some more cap space here
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: and make this an interesting all season. It all starts
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Monday and motions here for Football four. Thanks Man, you
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: got it.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Man take care.
