Here we are. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, I welcome you to this episode of the DK Entry Podcast with your lovely host, the return of Thomas Brown Jr. What's going on, y'all? What's going on y'all? We have a very interesting show today. We're going to have a whole lot to discuss. We got some wide receiver contracts, situations is going on. We got the NFL draft is coming up in a week.
TJ:Hmm, just a lot to discuss here. And you know what? I don't even think there's a place to start. Really, I don't even think there's a place to start. Um, let's start off with the good news first. Let's start with the good news first. Um, the other day uh, well, actually was it yesterday.
TJ:I, I believe it was yesterday Devontae Smith and my beloved Philadelphia Eagles have come to an agreement on a contract extension that's four years and, I believe, $35 million per year. That's pretty nice all things considered. I think it's very much so justified given the way that Devante Smith has produced throughout his career so far in Philly, as starting out as the wide receiver one and then moving to wide receiver two besides AJ Brown and just being a dominant receiver since that dynamic duo has started. So shout out to Devontae Smith man Shout out to Devontae Smith so I'm sorry my body is still stuck in California. Bear with me. Okay, smith, I'm sorry my body is still stuck in California, bear with me, but definitely I think it's a huge deal for Philly to get that done. Obviously you don't want to lose him in free agency with a year left on his rookie deal. So I think it was very genius and it was a solid contract worthy of a one. Devontae Smith, who still found a way to put up a thousand yards last year, who still found a way to put up a thousand yards last year, who, in the offense that now includes Saquon Barkley, now poses even bigger of a threat in terms of how the offense plays, which I think will be very interesting to see moving forward.
TJ:And you know, howie Howie I gotta be like a fly on the wall with how Howie Roseman is really, you know, orchestrating these deals, cause I don't know how you can make these deals be so substantially currently good while still planning towards the future. I don't know how you can do that, but Howie Roseman has done it yet again. He did it with Landon Dickerson a couple weeks ago with his extension. He's doing it again here with Devontae and I think it's just a genius move, I really do by Howie in that front office. So Eagles are doing their thing, man, and I love it. I really do Excuse me, so you have that going on.
TJ:So then, on top of that, the bad side of things is we have some people that are deciding to skip some voluntary workouts, and these are names that we don't typically hear, but we're hearing them now for obvious reasons. You're hearing them now for obvious reasons, one of them being Justin Jefferson, the wide receiver, one of the Minnesota Vikings, the guy as far as being in the conversation for the best wide receiver in the league, and a guy who, if he didn't get hurt last year, he was probably going to do something crazy as far as stats are concerned. So you have that, and now he's not showing up to workouts. Now, again, it's voluntary. This is also April. Don't understand why it's big news, but it is something to raise our eyebrows about because, um, this is not something that you typically hear from a Justin Jefferson and from the other guy that's also doing this is CD lamb of the beloved Dallas Cowboys. Um, now me personally, beloved Dallas Cowboys, now me personally. I don't know what to hold up with CD is, but we'll get into that in a second. We'll get into that in a second. First, justin Jefferson. Justin Jefferson's missing out on these workouts right now.
TJ:I think what the message is sending to the Vikings brass is I don't think we need to have a discussion as to why you wouldn't pay me. Um, I, I don't understand what the holdup is, for. You already know the kind of production I give. Um, I produce, I should say um on a consistent basis. Um talking about a guy who's been breaking records, um, since he came into the league, literally. Um, I don't. I don't understand what the holdup is, for.
TJ:Y'all should already give me my money. I should already have the big the Brinks truck in my driveway right now, um just waiting for me to collect the stash that, uh, y'all provide, and if that is the sentiment, I don't blame them. I don't blame them at all, um, because if you're in Minnesota, the timeline that y'all are currently in, after losing Kirk Cousins, after losing Dalvin Cook the year before, y'all are practically in a little bit of a rebuild. I know that's, that's kinda that's not. That's not what you want to hear. I know that's probably not what you want to believe, but that's what y'all are, that that's the timeline that y'all follow right now and because of that, now you have to figure out, okay, what do we do now? Because I'll tell you right now, in a division that has the Detroit Lions, that has an up-and-coming Bears team, that has an up-and-coming Green Bay Packers team, we may be looking at the last in the division anyways team, we may be looking at the last in the division anyways. So why are we deciding to hold up a receiver such as Justin Jefferson's for?
TJ:So I'm curious to see how long this will go, how far it will go. It should be very interesting to see how long this continues to prolong, because we're in April, we have the draft coming up. There's a lot of different trades that can be pulled off, some trades that we just don't expect to transpire. Um. Minnesota's already been in those type of conversations already, um with their top selection in this year's draft. So I'm kind of curious to see what this process is going to look like for a Vikings team who we all know needs Justin Jefferson. Let's not make any mistake about it, excuse me, they need Justin Jefferson. Let's not make any mistake about it, excuse me, they need Justin Jefferson, they do.
TJ:And when you, when you're in a situation like this, you have to be very cognizant of how you're going about it. You really do. Obviously, we're not in those rooms, we're not in those meetings, we're not in those negotiation conversations. I'm aware of that, because the other aspect of this also is how much is Justin Jefferson really asking for? People tend to forget that that's a thing or that's not a thing. I should say, um, and it definitely is a factor. Um, I could see a situation where Justin Jefferson is asking for top of the market money, record breaking money, and the Vikings are like you know, we don't mind doing that, but you're also a guy who just got injured last year. We may not be so quick to jump on that wagon per se to pay you what your asking price is. So there could be a scenario where that's probably in the way too.
TJ:And you know, I think it's always good to just follow the simple answer, and the simple answer is to just give this man his money, please. It a simple answer, and the simple answer is to just give this man his money, please, please, I beg you, give him his money. Save everybody the trouble, save everybody the Save it all, all the unnecessary drama, save it. Usually you can have this conversation for some other receivers that we're going to get into as well. Maybe you can try to play that card. But for a guy who has found a way, year in and year out, to give you one of the best productive seasons by any wide receiver known to mankind, the resume kind of writes itself. So it's really this simple pay him, please. So you have that going on.
TJ:We've we got news over the last couple days also that it looks like T Higgins is going to be staying in Cincinnati after all. Now, obviously, t Higgins is in his contract year. If I'm not mistaken, I believe he got hit with the franchise tag, which Higgins is not too privy to that, and understandably so, for being totally honest, um, and this is one of those cases where it's like what's going on in Cincinnati? Because I don't know what's going on, but I saw something the other day about a one, jamar chase, talking about how. Uh, no, I'm sorry, it was Justin Jefferson, which is why the whole conversation with the Vikings really needs to end fast, because Justin Jefferson said something on an interview not too long ago when he was talking about how you know, and of course, of course you know I'm taking away the grain of salt because Justin Jefferson is Justin Jefferson and he can be silly sometimes. So I'm pretty sure he was being, you know he was spreading a little bit of candor in this regard. But he was talking about how you know he does miss playing with Jamar Chase, how he does miss playing with Joe Burrow playing with Jamar Chase, how he does miss playing with Joe Burrow and, you know, just reliving all those you know great moments that they had back in LSU and how they just kind of tore the college game apart with just the three of them combined. Um, that crossed his mind and I don't think he said that over the airwaves just for the sake of saying that. So you have that going on.
TJ:Then you have this whole Tee Higgins situation. Now I personally don't understand why they just won't let him go at this point, because I think it's been made very, very clear that they don't want to. So they're kind of taking the lesser of two evils here. They don't want to pay T Higgins because they know that they have to pay Jamar Chase. Still that hasn't happened yet.
TJ:Okay, well, my thing is that if you know that, why are you keeping him? You know what his asking price is. You know, like you already know where this is going. I don't see why and it look all the rumors could be very much so false. We could wake up the following morning after the NFL draft and there's a trade, and it's just one of those things where I have to ask what are we really doing here if we're Cincinnati? Because if I was Cincinnati, I would actually take the opportunity to try and see what I can get for T Higgins. Not worry about the contract, you worry about Jamar Chase.
TJ:When that conversation comes around and you go from there, you're not, you're not going to be paying T Higgins, t Higgins money, whatever that price is, by the way. Um, I don't think you're doing it, so why help? I don't think you're doing it, so why hold him hostage when there's an opportunity for you to actually benefit from it? I don't know. I don't know. So you have the whole T Higgins situation. Then we're going to go to San Fran. All right, let me tell you something. This is going to sound really nasty, but as an Eagles fan, seeing all the drama that's going on in San Francisco is very, very entertaining. I ain't going to lie, I'm sorry is very, very entertaining. I ain't gonna lie, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but it is Okay. Debo Samuel, no, I'm sorry.
TJ:Brandon Ayuk is in the midst of some conversations with his contract as well, so much so that it's gotten to a point to where we are having conversations about him getting traded. Now again, this is also a scenario where we are not behind the scenes. We do not know what's going on in those meetings, in those negotiations. I understand that. I'm aware that I think we all are at least, I like to think so but the way that this is all turning into wildfire on social media is what's throwing me off.
TJ:One like literally like two days. It's like Brandon Ayuk wants to leave. Then the next day, it's you know, I didn't say that. Then it's the following day where Ayuk is like you know what, maybe they do need to pay me, like you know. Then the next day, it's the following day, where Ayuk is like you know what, maybe they do need to pay me. Then the next day is like you know what, forget it, I want to leave. It's like yo, what is going on? And whoever's in charge of his social media. If it is just him, then, my God, make up your mind. Which one is it? Do you want to be a 49er or not?
TJ:Um, and now again been down this road before, because his fellow teammate in Debo Samuel, pulled the same exact card with his contract negotiations a couple seasons ago, where you know, look. Well, debo Samuel's situation was different, though, because 49ers were going to pay him, but they weren't going to pay him in a manner that he thought he deserved. Niners were going to pay him, but they weren't going to pay him in a manner that he thought he deserved. You know, there was this whole conversation about him being running back, slash being a receiver, all this other nonsense, whatever, whatever, whatever. But that was Debo Samuel's situation slash lingo with his negotiations, with his negotiations.
TJ:Brandon Ayuk, though, is interesting Because this is a guy who, before this past season and let me know if I'm wrong before this past season, we were trying to figure out if he was going to get traded dead because he wasn't involved in Kyle Shanahan's offense. He was in the doghouse in some portions of the year prior. Like it wasn't like Brandon Ayuk has been, you know, utilized to the ump degree in San Francisco Hasn't been the case, and when you have that, it's one of those things where you're going to go in huh, huh. So now that this is finally the year that he is getting used and he's actually maximizing it in ways that we all thought would be a possibility, the fact that now we're at a place where we're struggling with contract negotiations leads me to believe that there might be a trade coming when to? I don't know when to. I don't know If I had to be, if I had to think of some teams off the top of my head that wouldn't mind paying him for his value, for his production. I think a team like a um, as, as a as a Ravens fan, I think the Ravens wouldn't mind that. I don't think Mr Davis here, co-host on the show, as a Ravens fan, I don't think he would be opposed to that. Obviously, you would miss out on T Higgins Shoot man.
TJ:Let me tell you all something right now the last three weeks. You want to know the last month and a half. You want to know what's been told to me by my co-host for the last, like it's been a month and a half. This is all that I've been hearing, with this whole Tee Higgins situation going on. Just wait until we snag Tee Higgins. We're going to get T Higgins. Look forward to us, t Higgins. Here comes T Higgins.
DK:Uh, oh, how come I don't hear nothing? Oh, do you hear me? I think it may be me. I don't hear nothing. Let me, let me go out.
TJ:Um, so, let me go out so like that's what it was, that's what it was. And again, maybe a Ravens takes a snag at an IUK, maybe a team like a Ooh, obviously you don't want to be in the same conference. You don't want to be in the same conference, obviously. Hmm, that's a good. I I'm trying to think, trying to think of some teams right now. What's going on, buddy?
DK:uh, I can hear you now how you doing sorry, I'm late. Sorry I'm late, I'm I'm finally here.
TJ:It's all good. It's all good traveling man. I feel man. I feel like we've been on a road trip for the past what? Three to four days or so.
DK:So this is pretty cool Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely. All right, what I missed? Because, simple fact, like I said, you went to the West Coast, I went to the West Coast.
TJ:Yeah, right, man, I was just telling them at the beginning of the show I said my body is still in california, I don't care what y'all say, so so y'all just gonna have to deal with it. Um, but we, but I was just bringing up about the whole brenna yuk situation, about how at this point we might need to entertain some trade conversations, and I brought up, I brought up the ravens as a possible team that would that would go after them. Um, I, I, I know that you, you know you've been shouting to the mountaintops about getting T Higgins. We obviously know about the situations going on in Cincinnati. Uh, with a.
TJ:T Higgins thing. Um, so I I I brought up the Ravens as a possibility to snag. Uh, brandon, I you can stay. Um, what's your thoughts on that? Before I you know, try to come up with some other teams that that may go after them in a in a situation I have.
DK:I have seen the chatter I I've seen the shadow about Brandon I, you and what. I was thinking to see this this I just know how to Ravens deal. The Ravenvens don't want to give you a lot for someone. They don't. They just don't do that. They, the reverends, say, okay, we, if we can get them for a deal, we'll get them for a deal. But the ravens will never go after somebody big time because they're like, okay, we don't have the money to pay them number two and we don't want to give up a whole bunch of picks. So they look at their draft capital and their picks and they're like, no, we'll just, we'll just take our chances in draft. We'll take our chances in the draft. I don't think they. It wouldn't be a great fit, it would, but they're just not gonna fully invest in it. They're not gonna trade. They're not, they're not going to trade.
TJ:You know what man?
DK:Like I said, I would love to see it, but you know Cincinnati don't want to talk to Baltimore at all about a trade. They refuse to even talk to Baltimore.
TJ:Right yeah, and understandably so.
DK:Yeah, like I said, baltimore is not going to spend picks or money because IU's going to want some money let's just look at it.
DK:He's going to want some money. Baltimore's not going to kick out that much money for that. They're not. They never have. You have to look at the history of what Baltimore does. They was like, okay, look, had a stud team. Oh, we'll let you go. We'll let you go, we'll rebuild. We'll let you go, we'll rebuild. We'll let you go Because, number one, they don't have the capital. They don't have the money for it. Salary cap Number one. Number two they just don't believe in spending a whole lot of money. If they can get you on a deal or a steal, they'll do it all the time. Look at everything they've done. They've gotten people on deals and steals Right. That's just what the Ravens do.
TJ:So the Ravens are out. I just came up with this off the top of my head and this is I hope this doesn't happen. Actually, I kind of do now because I think Twitter will blow up. Could you imagine a world where he ends up as a New York Jet?
DK:Hey, but look who has thrown the ball to him. Aaron Rodgers. Look who's throwing the ball to him. Aaron Rodgers, look who's throwing the ball to him. Okay, that's a strong possibility.
TJ:Look who's throwing the ball to him. I just thought about that. Jets is an option, because the problem is is that the same reasons that you just brought up as to why T Higgins wouldn't go to Baltimore is the same reasons that you just brought up as to why T Higgins wouldn't go to Baltimore? Is the same reason why if, if Brandon is going to get traded, it won't be in the NFC? I that much I do know. Um, so so I'm taking that into consideration as well. So jets, oh man, I wish they had the cat room, because if there was a way where Cleveland can go after him, I think he fits their scheme very, very well. Probably does. But then again, I just like a whole lot of chaos going on in AFC North anyway. So it's all going to gay, it's all going to gay.
DK:Listen, if the Steelers could pull it off, they would probably go after him Seriously.
TJ:Don't.
DK:Because they're trying to put this star studded team together. If the Steelers, they would go after him. Come on now. You got to use Durango and Russell Wilson, right? They got a brand new Ferrari and Justin Fields.
TJ:I'm just saying You're calling him a Ferrari.
DK:Hey, listen, he's a Ferrari in the making. Yeah, you know, regardless of what he was hurt going down the stretch in Chicago, he was doing his thing, he was doing his thing. You gotta get a man's prop.
TJ:Dave, come on man you gotta get a man's prop Dave, come on man.
DK:Don't make me do this. I ain't saying brand new you got some road miles on him. Don't make me do this. Don't make me do this man, listen, listen, he's starting to make it. He's just starting to make it. He just needs the right scheme to fit him. Pittsburgh does just starting to make it. He just needs the right scheme to fit him. Pittsburgh does fit him, pittsburgh fits him.
TJ:Why, why, why are you making me do this on this show? What is going on?
DK:Oh listen, pittsburgh fits the scheme man. Okay, I'll put it this way he would be much better than Russell Bilson. He should be first string. I agree, I agree, he should be first string. You know, russ, they just giving him because of Russell Wilson. Oh, I've been around the league. I'm Russell Wilson, I had the Super Bowl win. I'm this, I'm that.
TJ:That's what that is, sigh you do understand that this whole Justin Fields hype situation is coming off of six games from last year. We do understand that right.
DK:Okay. And again, if he gets in the right scheme and Tomlin can seem to scheme somewhere, okay. And here's the reason why. Look what he did with three bad quarterbacks. Three bad quarterbacks, three bad God awful quarterback.
TJ:Do you trust the offensive coordinator? Hmm, do you trust the offensive coordinator?
DK:Well, let's talk to some Pittsburgh fans. They trust him. They got rid of what's his name Matt Canada.
TJ:Yeah, matty, they wanted him out of there boy. They sure did. I ain't going to lie. They sure did, I ain't gonna lie. They wanted him out of there.
DK:Now he's out of there. What excuse do you have? That's the problem. What excuse do you? He's gone, so what excuse do you have you?
TJ:don't. But it's not like you upgraded immensely either. You still brought in Arthur Smith who, let's not forget, this time last year didn't know what it was like to utilize B John Robinson, kyle pits and drink London and a Falcons offense where he was leading the offense for the Falcons last year. That, oh, by the way, ranked close to dead last in every offensive statistical category possible. That's who you have an offensive coordinator for the Steelers this year. Now, if you're supposed to tell me that in one offseason he just goes from that to Andy Reid as a play caller.
DK:I'm sorry I'm not saying all that, but what I'm saying is that if you have a right scheme for the right player, you're good. Your right scheme for the right player, you're good. But let's give Russ a chance and see what happens. Let's see what happens when Russell has to face an AFC North rival team. Let's see what he does. Let's see what he does.
TJ:You already know.
DK:You already know what it's going to be. That's the toughest division in the league.
TJ:Yes, but we already know that. We already know how it's going to go.
DK:We'll see what he does when he has to fail. I ain't worried about anyone else, I'm worried about his division game. Let's see what he does against Cleveland. Let's see what he does against us. Let's see what he does against whoever else. Cincinnati, cincinnati.
TJ:Okay, cincinnati.
DK:So let's see what happens when all this goes on. Okay, okay, okay, because remember the um, uh, her love hate relationship he had in Denver just wasn't working. And then, oh, speaking of Denver, let me just bring this up.
TJ:So I was in Denver today. Y'all to bring this up Cause I was. I was in Denver today.
DK:So I have to bring this up. So me minding my own business, my own business in Denver, and someone sees my lanyard, it says Ravens. Okay, he's like oh man, you got the wrong team. Well, whose team? He said Denver. I said, sir, I got two things to say Miami Dolphins. I mean, I'd say Miami Dolphins, miami Dolphins Until you get rid of that embarrassment.
TJ:You can't talk to me at all. 72 and 10 is crazy.
DK:And then when you're riding on a train out there, the man right and he says welcome to them. He said you know, we have our world championship teams here. Huh, that's what he says. It says plays in the airport. I'm like what world championship? What championship teams do you have in Colorado?
TJ:The Nuggets and the NBA just won last year. I mean, if we want to go all for that, that's one team um, cause you can't be talking about college in the NFL, no?
DK:and he hopped on it and I'm like okay. I'm just saying that's the way I saw it and that's when.
DK:I heard it and the Denver fans can't talk. I'm just saying that's the way I saw it and that's when I heard it, and the Denver fans can't talk. You know, it's just like okay, all right. Buffalo bills fans, you know I had one talking trash to me. Oh, buffalo this and Buffalo that and Buffalo this and Buffalo that. This is what I said. When you win a Superbowl, you can talk to me in Buffalo. That this is what I said. When you win a Super Bowl, you can talk to me. Damn Lady gave me a high five when I said that.
DK:Not wrong though. Listen, listen, I get it. I get that you want to rep your teams or whatever, but sometimes you just got to tone that voice down just a little bit.
TJ:I ain't going to lie. If it was me, you wouldn't know what I would have said to trigger them. Stephon Diggs, you want to piss them off, stephon Diggs?
DK:Stephon Diggs yes, hey, he's going to Houston now. He's going to play in a dome again. Remember he was in Minnesota. He's back in the dome.
TJ:Yes, stephon Diggs, you know what? That's what we need to do. We need to come up with an episode where we come up with a trigger sentence or player or team for every single team in the nfl.
DK:Oh, I think, I, I think that would be yeah, yeah, I can see the sensors all coming now oh, absolutely, you know it's coming, since it's coming now so, so.
DK:But listen, listen, I I love the trash talk. I love it. That's why I give out these cards. I tell y'all come see us, because, again, I'm always ready and you know I tried to get my man to come on yet but he didn't respond to me. But we'll catch up, we'll collab, we'll collab. Yeah, because I'm definitely interested in his talk, because he's a big Steelers fan. He named his podcast pretty much the Black and Gold Standard Podcast. I get to make all the props in the world. I listen to him. I'm like, okay, we got to come have our debates. He's Steelers, I'm Raven. You Steelers fans out there, you got an advocate.
TJ:Oh, my, you got an advocate.
DK:Oh my, oh boy, you got an advocate. If we needed more, hey, listen, listen, bring it on. Bring it on, I'm going to go on his show. He can come on here. Hey, listen, we always ready. I tell you we versatile around here. Oh, we are, we versatile. So we look at things. Hey, I'm not a biased person. If the Ravens get your lock, I say we get a lock. If we got eyes, we got eyes. I say I don't back down from any of it. It's just like the whole Steelers. You know that whole brown bag episode Hilarious most episode I had so far and I wasn't upset about it. I honor my bet. I honor my bet. I honor my bet. I honor my bet. But back to Brandon Ayuk, like I said, that would be a match made in heaven for Aaron Rodgers. You know Aaron loves somebody to throw to Right. So if he got somebody he can throw to, aaron's going to get the ball to him.
DK:He's always seemed to crush the Cowboys' dreams when he was in Green Bay. Oops, you think you got Aaron Rodgers down. Okay, we got 40 seconds, no problem, throw it, touchdown, enjoy it, it don't get old.
TJ:Every single time, I think about it. Not at all. Every single time, I think about it, not at all. So, speaking of the Dallas Cowboys, there's another guy that's skipping some voluntary workouts. Now, again, as I've said earlier on the show, it is voluntary workouts. Let me say this one more time this is voluntary workouts. They do not have to be there, so it is okay. However, however, they do not have to be there, so it is okay. However, however, these guys are skipping it, and one of those guys is one cd lamb of the dallas cowboys, because he also of course I'm not surprised okay, I'm about to why you surprised, no, but.
TJ:But I bring it up because, um, this is another situation where I'm like what is really going on in dallas right now, because I could have sworn. Two weeks ago you made your decision on dagg dagg's playing on the final years of his deal, right. Then you made a decision on Dak Dak's playing on the final year of his deal. Then you made a decision on not getting anybody in free agency. I love that part, I love that part, and so you have all this clarity going on. So I'm trying to figure out what's the holdup with CD Lamb. This is a guy who going on. So I'm trying to figure out what's the holdup with Brent with with CD lamb.
TJ:This is a guy who has someone who had him on, who had, who had him on his fan, on on fantasy. Last year he had one of the most productive wide receiver statistical seasons We've seen a long time. As far as the cowboys concerned. Now I know mark cooper was there and gone. I get all that. There was nobody that produced in the man of that cd land produced last year in recent memory. Okay, so right, you have that. I'm trying to figure out what's the holdup. Why aren't y'all? Why, what is it? And so you know, I'm curious from you what you think in regards to this whole CD Lamb situation and his contract talks, because I just think it's one of those things where it's like what are we doing?
DK:Okay, okay, remember I'm. Are we doing? Okay, okay, all right, remember, I'm going to take the same from you. That is the most Dallas Cowboy thing that he can do. Like I said, you know I've learned some things. You know I've learned some things. This is the most Dallas Cowboy thing that you can do.
DK:And what he's doing is say, okay, I'm not going to come, I'm going to hold out, I need money. Y'all are not giving me the ball. You know I'm supposed to be here for this. It's just like the whole thing of. Okay, if I'm your top star, I at least want 9-10 target a game At least. At least Give me a chance. Right, Give me 9-10 chances. But when McCaffey's calling those plays where the ball going Not to see the right, Not a lot of times it's not going to see any lamb.
TJ:You know what it was last year. It was last year he got fed a lot.
DK:Yeah, because that really didn't have no choice.
TJ:He's not going to choose this year, that's. That's my point.
DK:So they're holding out. And you know, this is the whole thing right now with the whole nfl. Ain't the nfl anymore? This should be the money scam show. Everybody's holding out for money, everyone's holding out for money. Okay, oh, he got that. Oh well, this receiver got this contract. Well, why can't I get this contract? Oh, I did this and I did that. Everybody's just crying because they want money and we see it every year. So they don't come to these voluntary workouts and we're like we ain't paid me yet. Well, no, we need to talk about this. Okay, we can even say the same thing for the Ravens. A couple of receivers didn't come for voluntary workouts with the Ravens. Right, I don't know what they're holding out for, but hey, everything's about money, money.
DK:I just I think I'm worth $70 million. Oh, you're only giving me $62? Nah, I don't want it. Nah, I don't want it, don't know man wait, wait what's the guarantee? What's the guarantee? Because, that's right, I'm looking for. What's the guarantee? Oh, only 40 million. I was like, nah, I don't want it.
TJ:Oh no, I I get it, but I, I, just I, and I've been saying this and I will stand on this mountaintop until the cows come home. The timeline that your team is under tells me exactly the manner that you need to go in certain situations. Dallas does not have that great offense anymore. They do not have a Michael Gallup who, by the way, is anybody picking him up anyways? Um, dalton Schultz gone. Yes, you have Jake Ferguson, who did well last year. Wait, but let's, let's talk back even Amari Cooper.
TJ:Let's talk back to that. Okay, here's the thing?
DK:You had some studs. You just didn't know how to use them.
TJ:Not only that, but you had the opportunity to pay them. And then you paid the wrong people because you wanted to solidify that you made the greatest picks of all time in Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott out of all people, so you decided to invest in them instead of looking for where your real production was coming from. You got rid of Mario Cooper.
TJ:My thing is this is not the time for y'all to act like CeeDee Lamb is not good. It's not the time for y'all to act like CeeDee Lamb is not good. It's not the time for y'all to act like CeeDee Lamb did not do well last year. It is not the time for y'all to act like CeeDee Lamb is asking for too much. Now, if he's asking to break the bank, that's something totally different. If that's the conversation that's going on behind the scenes, okay, sure, whatever. But even still, if I had the production that cd lamb did last year, I'm gonna have to have a conversation about how much money I'm going to get, because if y'all thinking about paying dac 60 million and that contract that contract situation conversation lasted all the way up past free agency oh, we're going to be talking about my contract until it's week one.
DK:Seriously, Again, that's what they're holding out for, the big paycheck. I'm holding out for it. Your agent is the guy that's advocating for you, right? The agent's like okay, my man had this many catches, he had this many yards. Oh, he was second or first-all pro. You know, he was just. You need to pay my guy, plain and simple. You need to pay my guy, but he deserves it though.
DK:Yeah, and in Jerry's world, jerry's like oh no, I don't need to pay anybody, I'll just get rid of him and go get someone else. You know, I don't think I need to pay him.
TJ:Idiots, idiots, idiots.
DK:Come on, idiots, anybody that's a smart, a smart football tycoon in there, be like, hey look, we need these pieces so we can put this together. You want a championship to come here, sir? Then let us do our job. Plain and simple, let us do our job. And if and simple, let us do our job. And if you don't let us do our job, then we can't fulfill the need to bring a championship in here. After 30 plus years Damn, after 30 plus years, we're trying to bring another championship here. We good, then we get to the playoffs and then we done Right and all of us are disappointed. I still got the pictures of when Green Bay went down there. It was 26 and up man, the way the fans were looking like this up in the sky.
TJ:Come on, that never.
DK:Nots get old, that never not gets old, it doesn doesn't. But the thing with is is that if jerry gets his hands out of stuff and let his coaches and everybody do their jobs and just say, hey, I'm gonna sit back and let y'all do y'all, let me see what y'all do, maybe I can learn a thing or two from y'all.
TJ:Right.
DK:Remember they let Jimmy Johnson ring on and they feel as though the curse is over. The Jimmy Johnson curse is over. It's not Jimmy Johnson curse, right Jones curse, that's what it? Is.
TJ:That's what it is.
DK:It's just like the Dan Snyder curse, but he's out of Washington. Yeah, and that's supposed it is. It's just like the Dan Snyder curse, but he's out of Washington yeah, and that's supposed to change anything.
TJ:So that's the thing too. Look, maybe you don't want to go the history route, that's fine. Let's just talk about what you've done within the last three months. You got cooked by the Packers a bunch of babies. They storm in the Dallas Whoop Y'all like something was ripped, y'all like somebody stole something from them. Then you have all free agency to get a Derrick Henry and you get nothing, not a thing. Oh, I'm sorry, you got a long snapper. My bad, sorry, are you kidding me? Oh, and we decided not to go after those guys is because we were figuring out Dak's contract, just to find out later on that we're not going to pay Dak and we're going to let him play his final year. So basically, you had a chance to still get Derrick Henry, but you wanted to play around with time. Why? So now fast forward to CD lamb. We're playing around with time again. Why? I don't understand.
DK:It's insane to me it's a revolving door. When have they changed their program? Seriously, they haven't did anything in free agents since. Who Eons? How long ago was that?
TJ:Before I was born.
DK:A long time ago. Last time they did something in free agency was Deion Sanders. Now, all of a sudden, you don't feel as though that, hey, you get these hot players that's in the free agency market, hey, we need to draw them here somehow. We need to change this program, we need to do this, we need to do that. But you see, jerry won't allow that to happen. He wants everything to be his way, his way, and that's been a problem. Look at all these other franchises out here. They allow their coaches to do their job. They just sit up there, they watch their games. Okay, we doing good, okay we this, okay we that. Let's go back to the bangles. Going all the way back to the Superbowl, right, they had a great damn team, yep. And not to mention, they have, they have Kansas city's number. Oh boy, you can call it what you want, they seem to have their number. And they took the Kansas City to town a couple times, a couple so now they're losing little key figures up there, but hey, let's see what Burrow can do.
DK:Can he get over that adversity, can he get through that? Now you got the hybrids, the hybrid stealers, because they like all these signs as they're doing this. Call them the hybrids. And I told them, I said y'all ain't nothing but the new cowboy. Y'all good on paper, y'all good on paper. Good on paper, y'all going on paper.
TJ:Going on paper. I can't even give them that.
DK:I'm sorry, listen, I can't Week one is going to tell us everything with everybody. It is. But you see, here's the biggest thing that's going to hurt any team, and it does every year. Okay, injuries, absolutely. You can have the greatest team in the world, unless the people start getting injured. You go from top to bottom, just like that. Injuries Hurt you, that's right. That's right, hey. But I'll tell you one of the biggest free agents that's out there right now Because he got fired Over, g Rice oh my bad, I'm just throwing shade the ages this out there right now because he got fired over. She writes oh my bad, oh, I just don't oh, oh, that was some serious shade.
DK:Okay, oh wow, all right Well we'll be free Probably get him for a bargain deal right now.
TJ:Yo Rishi Rice man. Do we have to talk about him?
DK:No, we don't, I just we don't.
TJ:And I've been preaching this.
DK:You can take a person out of the environment, but you can't take the environment out of the person. Plain and simple. You didn't learn from my man's incident. You didn't learn my man's incident. You didn't learn. No one learned from that. Henry Ruggs, yes, no one heard, no one learned from that. No one learned from that. I'm just saying Through his whole career way Because he wanted to speed down the road. No one's learning from this, nobody.
TJ:I'm just saying how do you do this? After your rookie year, though, where you won a Super Bowl? I think that's the part that bothers me. It's not like he was a rookie that nobody knows about that barely got any playing time, and then their team also sucked, so no one cares. Like, oh, it's just another ticker on the. You know, it's just another headline on the ticker. This guy was one of the pivotal reasons why the Kansas City Chiefs are back-to-back Super Bowl champions in his rookie year, and you do this why? That bothers me the most.
DK:No, no, I don't get that. Here's what you can't take away from him. The Super Bowl, you can't take that. Here's what you can't take away from them. The Super Bowl, you can't take that away from them. But again, when we get money, we do stupid, we do, we do. We do stupid things when we get money. Oh man, I'm going down the freeway 300 miles per hour. Now I'm going to race this guy. I'm going down the freeway 300 miles per hour. Now I'm going to race this guy. I'm going to call it faster. We do things that we shouldn't do, and that's why I was saying about mentorship and you know I preached this a couple times a mentorship.
DK:These older, veteran players should mentor these young guys, say, hey, man, listen, y'all about to get a whole bunch of money, don't be going out here doing them stupid, because you can end your career in a heartbeat. Mentorship, mentor these guys. If you mentor these guys, maybe you can combat that behavior really, really soon.
DK:Okay, let's go to Lamar jackson he took a video, I think, on instagram. He was going 100 something miles an hour, what the ravens do. Hey man, come here, come here, yeah, come here. No, that's unacceptable. You are our franchise. We don't need nothing happening. Wow, what'd he do?
DK:He sent out an apology about his behavior. Why doesn't everyone else do that? I mean, I understand that it's a little bit too late In his case. He's racing, but like, hey man, somebody needs to talk to him. Okay, you got leaders on the football field, but where's your leaders in the community? Hey man, look, listen, we in the offseason. Go be with your family. Don't do nothing stupid. Don't do anything that's gonna cost you your career. You know, put a burden on your family. Don't do anything that's gonna make you look bad. Seriously, yep, don't do anything that's gonna make you look bad. And when I saw the story, I was like oh, oh, oh. Then I saw the press release for kansas city. We released them. Yep, I'm like, oh, oh, it wasn't even a question. You gone, bro, deuces $5,000. We're out. Then, not only that, you come in and you're like you want to run now. You don't even tell yourself man, you want to run Like daddy oh all right oh.
DK:Listen, I'm in a shady type of mood tonight.
TJ:I see.
DK:Oh my God, I'm in a shady type of mood tonight. I see, oh my God, type of mood tonight. Oh man, I'm just saying I'm just saying I think you caught that herb. I'm just, I'm just saying. Oh man.
TJ:I am in a shady mood tonight.
DK:Very shady, very shady mood. But what I'm saying is this they doing stupid stuff in the offseason, but wait, wait. And let's go back to the point of CeeDee Lamb's situation. Right, they doing stupid stuff in the off season, but yet, but wait, wait. And then let's go back to the point of CD lamb situation. Right, and I'm not I'm not pointing no fingers at him to saying he's done something stupid, but you do things stupid in the off season, but yet you want to come back and say, hey, I work for all this money.
TJ:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no, not how that works, buddy. I'm just saying Sorry, that's not how it works.
DK:Yeah, that's not how it works. So, okay, you got Mahomes. He's a leader up there, right? Kelsey? Correct, he's a. I'm sorry, taylor Swift, I'm sorry, I'm my. Is this you got all these leaders up there. Why ain't someone talking to these guys? Why ain't no one talking to them? You can talk to them on the field. You can give them the fired up speech. Hey man, we can run through a wall together, we're going down this field together, but you can't tell them hey man, y'all need to team Swift.
DK:Here we go Herb Shady, shady, mood Shady, mood night Shady. But what I'm saying is why can't you mentor these guys Seriously? Mentor them, I think If they had mentorship, or if the NFL made a program of mentorship and putting them in these mentorship programs, it may I'm not saying that's the end, all be all, but it may come back Some of that behavior, it may. That that's the problem option. At least it's an option, yeah.
TJ:That, but that's the problem. Option, at least it's an option. Yeah that, but that's the problem, though it shouldn't be an option. It because I think that and you know what this, this sounds very, very crazy to say about, about my generation in particular, and maybe the generation after me we have a huge issue when it comes to options. We abuse that word to the umpt degree. Oh, we have the choice of doing this over that. Oh, we're going to take option B over option A, because that's the less work we have to do, and we have a very bad habit of not having the discipline to say the discipline or the self-awareness to say you know what, in order for me to be at a hundred percent in all that I say and do, it may have to take me having to dedicate some time towards this, it may have to take me having to exactly no fair consequences. But again, that goes back to just the fact that there's an opportunity of option, is what I'm going to call it.
TJ:We have a very bad habit of abusing that, and that's just for people in my age range. We have a very bad habit of abusing that, and that's just for people in my age range I got to look up his age and maybe Rasheed Rice is around my age, which is going to make my point very, very have a whole lot of weight behind it. But this when you have, when you have people, he's 23 years old, so he's a year older than me. So this is a guy who is a year older than me. I don't know if he has any any kids. I don't know if he has any baby mama situations. I don't know if he's married. I don't know what the hell's going on, but you're having a 23-year-old getting paid all this money and he's making the choice to not listen to the leadership, because I think that's the part that gets slipped under the rug. It's not even so much so that there is a mentorship program that needs to be in place or things of that nature.
TJ:We need to have some consequences of what the fuck happens if you don't Excuse the language, but that's what it is If you don't find a way to abide by said standards that we ask of you and look and this goes for any type of role on the team If you are, for example, right, if I draft you in the top 10, if you think about doing something stupid, don't expect to come back to the NFL the following year, you will be automatically suspended for the following year and hope and pray that you get reinstated.
TJ:The fall, uh, the year after that, like it, like the, the. The weight of consequence needs to be there in order for them to understand how important it is, because I think that's, I think that's what it is, I think it's the fact that when you have rashid rice who, by the way, got drafted to a team that just won a super bowl the year before he I mean he he may be a part of the offense, he's. He didn't think he was going to be wide receiver one towards the end of the year, gets wide receiver one towards the end of the year, does well in the playoffs, wins the super bowl. Now he has no idea what to do, right, so there are needs. So so if you are going to implement that, there does need to have some sort of weight behind it, to where people are saying you know what? Like this, may, this may be mickey, this may be too much, this may be unnecessary. Um, uh, kind of, kind of uh kind of kind of I'm trying to think in in a way.
TJ:In a way you're right. In a way you're right, hurt, because there's a lot of franchises. That's like as long as you do, well, I don't care what you do, as long as long as you produce, as long as you produce, and it benefits my company, I don't care what you do outside of work. When you do get to work, you better produce, I don't care what you do outside of it. It is kind of similar.
DK:I can see that you can look this one up. When someone told me about it, I actually looked it up and researched it. Earl Thomas, they say he was out of control in Seattle. Come on, out of control in Seattle? Okay, I don't know about that one. He all kinds of stuff out there, right, yeah, and he just got away with it. But he came to Baltimore and did that one time and what happened? Oh you out of here, yep, yep Out. Did that one time and what happened? Oh, you out of here, yep, yep, out of here. Well, no, you know, you gone, see. Ya, it's just what, like you said, what franchise will tolerate it? Hey, that guy's, he's beasting out the industry. I don't care what he does, but when you have, you come to a team that has morals and values and they value their players and they're not going to let one person tear down what we built. He had that outburst. It was the fight and practice. They were like, oh, you're gone, see you Out of here. Has he played since?
TJ:Nope.
DK:No, shoot Didn't get picked up by anybody. I'm tired at this point.
TJ:Yeah, it's been a couple years yeah.
DK:But that's the point. So now we can look at it. Just depends on the franchise.
TJ:Depends on the franchise. Well, what do you?
DK:mean by that, though? Okay, like I said, he was allowed to get away with all that stuff up in seattle, but when he came to baltimore they didn't let him get away with that. So I guess they looked at hey, he's a great player, right, he's a great player. Hey, we don't care what he do, as long as he's producing out here on the football field. Maybe it just depends on the franchise what they tolerate or what they don't tolerate.
TJ:You know what, now that you said that, I think that would also be good on both ends, because what that would also do is that it will put a microscope on how the front office handled their staff as well. Because, I ain't gonna lie, when I was hearing stuff about what was going on with Dan Snyder when he was in Washington and all the stuff about what he was doing with the staff and all this other stuff the fact that it took until 2 to three years ago for him to finally sell the team, like before, starting here.
DK:that's the biggest thing he was forced out of here.
TJ:And he got forced, but it took. It took them 20 plus years, after all these allegations, all these different court battles, to get to that point. So 20 plus years, after all these allegations, all these different court battles, to get to that point. So 20 plus years. So I think what is also does if, if you, if, if that's the route that we're going I think it also puts a responsibility and accountability on the front office to also say, hey, look man, y'all not too far from the tree too. We will find look you, you want to mess this up for your franchise? That's fine, you will be relieved of your duties and we'll find a way to give this team to someone else.
TJ:Yep absolutely, and it applies to everybody, from top to bottom. Okay, okay, yeah, I think that's fair. I think that's fair.
DK:But see, like I said, no fear of consequences, no fear of consequences.
TJ:Because there isn't any that's what I'm saying.
DK:There isn't any Until the law gets involved. Yeah, but then again he has money, then he has money.
TJ:Thank you. So it don't matter, there's no consequence. There's still no consequence. That's the only reason why they even. That's the thing. So, like I said earlier, you have a young guy who, already before he even gets to the NFL, has a choice of well, hey, do you want to do this? Well, you want to do that, oh, I'll do that. Didn't get to the NFL, and it's like well, you got to make your own name for yourself. Makes the own name for themselves and it's like well, do you want this or do you want that? All right, I'll take that. And it's like there's nothing but choices that's being given to them and not much weight on the consequence. After the fact. That, I think, is what bothers me the most, because the Chiefs aren't responsible for what Rasheed Rice did. They're not responsible.
TJ:Because you want to know what everybody, you want to know what the whole team was doing during this entire time. Mahomes is over there with his wife and his kid uh, uh uh, watching soccer games. Travis Kelsey is getting graduated in Cincinnati. Uh, uh, attending Jason Kelsey, his brother's retirement. You have Andy Reed is on talk shows with Colin, with Colin Cowherd and's retirement. You have Andy Reid. That's on talk shows with Colin Cowherd and Rich Eisen, you have Isaiah Pacheco doing the same thing. All these different guys are keeping themselves very, very occupied and they know what is on the line because they know that there are eyes that are watching them. Well, how come you, as one of the guys that they look at, that we look at as far as the national media how come y'all don't pay attention to? How come you're not, you're not aware and paying attention to that either? How are you so oblivious and naive to that? I don't understand. Let me tell you why.
DK:It's because and maybe I may be a little zealous of saying this one I guess they only care what happens on the field at that time. Other than that, I'm not concerned. Maybe, maybe.
TJ:Talking about the players, talking about the players themselves, yeah.
DK:Maybe, and what Herb said lack of maturity, lack maturity, lack of maturity, absolutely 23 and I'm what. 30, 40 million, I got a lamborghini. You know, again, you giving someone that young all that money, what they gonna do? Go crazy, wait a minute. That young, all that money, what are they going to do? Go crazy, wait a minute, right.
DK:I'm trying to think I ain't never had this kind of money in my life. Now I don't want a Super Bowl Right Now. I'm just man. I got this car. It's paid for cash, right? Oh, hell, yeah, I'm gone right. Lack of maturity, lack of maturity, jb. What's happening, sir? Yeah, so again, it's it's, it's, it's very lack of maturity again. If someone gave me that type of money, I'm more educated. I know what consequences are, so I'm not tending to do that kind of stuff, and I'm not saying that all younger people are like that, because they're not. You do have some responsible younger people out here, right?
TJ:You're talking to one of them. I think you give somebody that type of money.
DK:The first thing they're going to one of them. I think you give some. I like to think they're the first thing they want to say is I ain't never had this kind of money before in my life. Oh my God, what the man. Hey, what's the first thing young people go do? They go buy a fast car. That's down Down in one of the house that went up. Let me go get a fast car. They go get a fast car. They went to get a fast car Because I got to. Oh, let me soup this boy up. Scat pack. Whatever the attack, Scat pack. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
TJ:Let me go get this.
DK:Let me go do some donuts. Yeah, let me do this. Oh, I'll give you one better. Let me go run from Georgia State Patrol.
TJ:I me go run from Georgia State Patrol. I told you.
DK:I'm on a show. Listen, I told you I'm on some shades, but what I'm saying is this they make bad decisions when you give them a whole bunch of money. They make bad decisions. It's not all of them, and I want to make make bad decisions. It's not all of them, and I want to make that crystal clear. This is not all of them, but some do, and in Rasheed Rice's case he made a bad choice, bad decision. He didn't learn from Henry Ruggs.
TJ:He didn't learn.
DK:That should be when these guys come into the NFL. He should be the poster child of what you don't do, Right? Hey, he made a bad choice and ended his career. I don't want to see that happen for you guys. Yeah, now guess what he's going to be the poster child. So now we have two.
TJ:Not too far apart from each other either. I know Henry Ruggs was what? 2018, 2017, something like that? No, my bad. Yeah, 2018, 2019, somewhere in there. It wasn't like this was back in the day, sort of thing. This is fairly recent, which makes it worse.
DK:Yes, and now, which makes it worse, yes, and now you have the same incident because you're racing, I think. In his case, I don't think he was racing, henry Ruggs wasn't racing, but you were racing. No, you put other people in jeopardy Right, and then you left. Yeah that was here's the thing. You wouldn't have gotten trouble if you just stayed there. You probably would have got your ticket, had a court date, something like that. You would have probably been good, but now you left the scene of a crash you right, you in some drug.
DK:It says, hey, I made a mistake this, and that I went in. Hey, see, if you can give me some community service, I'll go to these, I'll help these people with their jobs. Something to say hey, I'm really apologize for this mistake that I made and I really want to make it up to you, right, anything, but you left and then they had to put a warrant out for you.
TJ:Yep, yep. I think the best way I could say it, though, is if, because the picture in my eyes is if he stayed, the image that it would show is that this is a guy that understands that this was an accident. This wasn't intentional, it was a mistake. There's some type of remorse behind that.
DK:Right, absolutely.
TJ:Absolutely, absolutely. When you run and what makes it worse is when you have recording of people seeing you run away from the scene what it tells the public eye is that, look, I kind of meant to do this. I didn't think it would go this far, but it got this far. Now I want nothing to do with it. So, whatever I need to do to get the hell up out of here, that's what I'm going to do, because this has nothing to do with me, but it has something to do with me and it's like Dude I don't know what other way I could really say it like. It's like the image kind of portrays itself based on what you do in that moment. Now, don't get me wrong. I'm pretty sure.
TJ:I'm pretty sure there's tons of people that if they were in that situation, their first instinct is that they want no parts of being in that situation because that's not a comfortable situation to be in. I'm aware of that. It's not. Let's not be naive. That's a very uncomfortable situation to be in, knowing that you cause, you cause some harm to a vehicle, or, in this case, a vehicle and people in the vehicle. Right, that's not a comfortable place to be in. Or, in his case, a vehicle and people in the vehicle. Right, that's not a comfortable place to be, and I'm aware of that, right, but for you to take the opportunity to flat out up and run, then there's a recording of you doing that. Then it had to take for you to get a warrant for you to turn yourself in. Now it's like, okay, there's some type of intentionality behind it. I don't know what type of intentionality. It is well for you to do that.
TJ:I don't want to take responsibility for my action come on, it's an accountability thing, and I think that's what that's kind of what. What bothers me the most is that this is something that is just off of strictly accountability. You would still be in the league. The thing is, if you had stayed, the Chiefs would have covered your ass. Let's be perfectly clear about it. The Chiefs would have covered his ass and that would have been the end of the story. That's all it would have been. That's all it would have been.
TJ:That's all. It would have been yes, but you ran. So now the accountability. They can't take accountability for that, because that means that they're condoning that type of activity and that's not what the NFL is going to do. That damn sure is not going to be what the Chiefs are going to do, given what they you know them just winning the Super Bowl. Imagine what that looks like for the NFL if they had to condone that.
DK:So right, come on, man, come on hey, listen, good luck to him, that's the best thing I can say. Good luck to him. Good luck to him. Yeah, good luck to him. Good luck to him. Wow, but has anything else came down the pipe of anything? Because I haven't seen anything came down the pipe. Usually I get the little news flashes, update, but it hasn't it, hasn't I?
TJ:I brought up, I brought up the davante smith uh, extension. Uh, that began the show. I talked about how the contract is definitely warranted for a Devontae Smith who has produced ever since he entered the league back in 2019, I believe it was where you would think that production would drop, with him moving to wide receiver two in an offense that, um, you know, requires him to get the ball. Um, and he isn't getting the ball as much but still is producing at a high level with aj brown as wide receiver one. Um, and I think when you have something, when you, when you're able to cold, being able to get a deal done before the last year of his rookie deal with a contract, that makes sense. It was $35 million per year, I believe it was.
TJ:So it wasn't like you're breaking the bank for him. It wasn't a Calvin Reilly situation. You're breaking the bank for him. It wasn't a calvin really situation. Um, this, this makes sense and I like stuff that makes sense. This, this, the, the contract and the wire receiver that got the money makes sense so it's funny, you said calvin really, because that's the way I was going.
DK:I said if he went to tennessee they probably got $100 million. Oh, here you go. I'm just saying.
TJ:I think that's the real question. That's the real question, man. I think that's the new 30 for 30. Where in the hell is Tennessee getting all this damn money from?
DK:I've been to Tennessee a couple times. I've been close to their stadium. I've went down there a couple times. I actually haven't been in there, but I went around there because I was looking for some money trees. I was looking for some money trees walking around the stadium. It's got to be somewhere, somewhere where I can just pick a couple hundred. You know something? I didn't see any. I don't know what he's keeping in there.
TJ:I don't know, where he got this money from oh man, oh man, I, I don't know, man, it's, it's, I don't know, I don't know, but that, that was that. Um, the draft is coming up, uh, in the next week, week or so. Oh, herb knows, herb knows what's up. The draft's coming up next week. Oh man, can't wait.
DK:Cannot wait, cannot wait.
TJ:So this is what I also wanted to talk about, because I saw this today and I was like I don't understand people anymore. So three weeks to a month ago, when everybody was doing their mock drafts, we were there. There was the experts. That was talking about JJ McCarthy, former Michigan quarterback, being drafted in the top five, him going to four and to Minnesota, and everybody was talking very glowingly about him. Then I saw something today where they said scouts are saying that he may not even be in the first round altogether. I said what? How do we do that? How do we do that? Nothing changed between then and now Nothing.
DK:What happened in Indy? Wait a minute. Didn't a lot of them say that they wasn't going to do a lot of workouts up in Indy? They said they wasn't going to do workouts. A lot of them quarterback.
TJ:But McCarthy did, mccarthy has done everything. So it's not like you don't have the film. It's not like you don't have the the the film. It's not like you don't have all that you need to see from him and and we go from. He's a top five pick, he, he, may, he may shock some people to now he's not even worth the first round. How do we do that? I, I don't understand it, don't make sense to me.
DK:Needy teams okay, let needy teams. Who's our quarterback needy?
TJ:teams. Let's go down the list okay, chicago. Okay, washington, new England, vikings, raiders Yep, seattle could use one.
DK:If we're being honest, they already said Geno's going to be the man.
TJ:And I can hear it now Chargers.
DK:What.
TJ:Oh, I guess Justin Herbert doesn't exist. Herb, you know what? Don't do this to me, man, don't you do this. I have a very high regard for you, sir. Don't you screw it up now. Oh my God, that was really nasty. He really tried that on me.
DK:It's Shady Tuesday.
TJ:Shady. Tuesday baby, I see. So okay, who else am I missing? I'm actually going by division right now. Ooh, atlanta could have used one, but they got Kirk Cousins.
DK:Yeah, you like that oh.
TJ:Let me see. Is there anybody else I'm aware. I'm very interested to why you honestly believe the Chargers need need a new quarterback after just paying.
DK:Justin.
TJ:Herbert the year before.
DK:He's retired, he has all day.
TJ:I'm looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to it. Let me see. Is there anybody else? I think that's about it. I think everybody either has their guy or has a contract obligation to their guy. Yeah, so that's a solid seven to eight teams right there I just named.
DK:Okay, and remember Washington's really looking for one. They're going to get Drake May, I believe that's where he may go.
TJ:I think Drake May goes over there Trying to think of some other teams right now. Is that it? I think that's it.
DK:Yeah, because everybody else is probably just looking for corners, yeah everybody's defense weapons. O-line Stuff like that oh. First round will be your quarterback and receiver. I forgot.
TJ:I forgot, oh my God, I forgot, I forgot, I forgot. Denver needs a quarterback.
DK:Oh yeah, we forget about that, and I was just there.
TJ:Denver needs a damn quarterback.
DK:Denver needs a new team after what Miami did. Oh man.
TJ:Denver needs a new quarterback. Now, I think that's it. Now I think, well, well, the giants need one two. The giants need one two. That's 10 teams. Now, I think that's about it. I think that's about it. That is as close as you can get for half the league that needs quarterbacks yep, absolutely so, oh, by the way, all those teams have a first round selection.
TJ:You mean to tell me that no one's going to sit up there and say, you know what, let's not take JJ McCarthy. What are we doing now? So, because remember the conversation was oh.
TJ:I know he is. That's the problem. This is why I can't stand the draft process, because because this is why I can't stand the draft process Because this happens every single year and it never fails we have the project, we know who's going number one, maybe number two we know that we talk them up all this time and then everybody in the top 10, everybody has this sort of polarizing opinion about them. And then, three years down the line, when one of the guys in the top 10 does well or better than the top two guys, then it's like oh well, how did anybody see this coming? No, we talked about it back in March, but then y'all decided to change our mind back in april, the month of the draft, because of vibes. I don't understand that. So, prime example oh, how did mitch trubisky become second overall? Why didn't he decide to go out? And pat mahomes? Well, we knew what pat mahomes was about back in, back in college. But right, there was so many talks about Mitch Trubisky. He's just, he got all the pieces, he has all the tools. Look at him now and look where Patrick Mahomes is now.
TJ:Yeah, I don't understand it. I can't. That's the only reason why I can't enjoy this draft process, because we have conversations like like oh, we believe in this guy back in February, but now that we're in April, the month of the draft, now they're just a guy, they're just a JG. How we get here? How do we get here? I don't know. I don't know. Maybe you can help me out, dave. I have no idea how we get here. We do this every year. It doesn't get. For me it's getting old, but apparently it just never ends. I don't understand.
DK:I don't know what they look at. I don't know what sheets they look at. I really don't know where they get their information. Y'all all go to. Y'all all go down there for days and y'all look at these. Y'all all go to. Y'all all go down there for days and y'all look at these. This talent Y'all look, y'all look at. Y'all talk to them, right, you meet with them, you sit down, have lunch with them, you see what they can do, but you then you just change your mind out of the blue. I think they watching too much sports center. That's what it is.
DK:Because, come on, let's think about this for a second. You have all these people that does these little mock drafts. Right, yeah, but they hate man. Look, this is our guy, this is our guy, we like him, this is our guy, this is our guy, this is our guy. Then, come draft day, oh shit, that all changed. This is our guy now. And where does that come into play? Does ownership get involved and say, hey, look, I like this guy does it? Hey, the coaches have control. Hey, hey, hey, look, we like this guy. Look at all this stuff, look at this, look at that. Where in there did it change? Because it's coming from some place, you know, if you got your coaching staff and we all in there were ownership say, hey, this is our guy, this is our guy.
TJ:And the next thing.
DK:You know it was like nope, this your guy. And it happened. Then, oh wait, let's not forget the phone calls. Hey, let me give you a couple draft picks, but let me come up to this spot and then you take this spot and I'll give you this on the back and this, this, this, this, this, to get your guy that you were looking at. A lot of inner workings going on there, way above my pay grade, way above my pay grade way above my pay grade this is where it's coming down to for me.
TJ:If y'all want to have conversations about where they're going to go, let that conversation be about the teams and the teams itself. I need somebody to make up their mind on what y'all view these players and let's go from there with the recent observation that you have seen. So if that means that the last pro day you saw them perform and they did very, very well, then you need to go off of that and then utilize your judgment off of what they did in college and then what they did in their pro day. Everything else is not on the player itself. It should not be on the player itself. I get it. I just need clarity, that's all. I just need clarity, because none of it makes sense to me. None of it. I just need clarity, that's all. I just need clarity, because none of it makes sense to me.
DK:None of it. We all do, we all do. But I'm telling you it's all the mechanics that just goes into it. Because, remember, everybody wants to have more picks, right, and more capital. So if I can get a couple more picks to get some more capital, I'm good. Right now we can say Houston is in a great, great spot. Right now we can say Houston is in a great, great spot. They're not going after anybody on offense, they're going after defense. That's where Houston's going.
TJ:I mean, they could bolster the offensive line if they wanted to. They could.
DK:Yeah, so, but you look at, you look at, okay, like I said, the quarterback needy team. What's Denver going to do? What's Washington going to do? Really, them two are at your highest peak of needing a quarterback. They're at your highest peak of needing a quarterback. Everybody else can be like, okay, I'm five, alright, there's my quarterback.
DK:If he's still available, that's my man, that's him if this person don't pick him, then you just, you just gotta have your list one, two, three, four, five. Alright, we number five, we need to have five. If this person ain't available, we going after him. This person ain't available, we going after him and just see how the cards play. No clarity, none.
TJ:Still none. You provided the best solution possible. I think it still would be rocket science. I think that's what bothers me the most. We have gone out of our way to try to solve this draft process issue and I don't think it will bring any more clarity than it already has. So congratulations for us still getting to ground zero. Shout out to us yeah, absolutely Unbelievable, unbelievable. I just had to give my soapbox on that one because I just find that annoying. We do this every single year. Then, three years down the line, we're like oh well, I didn't know you would be this good or no. I didn't think you would be this bad. You knew it back in febru. You knew it. You knew it, but you had a couple conversations, you saw an interview, you saw a pro day and then, all of a sudden, you know what? Actually, I think he's going to go in the top three. What is the parameter? What is the standard that we're going to go off of? Because it, just, like I said, it just don't make sense to me.
DK:It just don't it's probably because of their stats in college, what they've done, how many touchdowns you won the Heisman. That's what it's probably going off of.
TJ:You say that, you say that, but you want to know what was told to me about JJ McCarthy. Oh, he was on the best team, so, and he so because he was on the best team and he didn't produce as as well as some, as as some of the top quarterbacks in the draft, maybe he shouldn't be in the first round after all. Oh, I'm sorry, it's his fault that he was on one of the best teams, if not the best team, in college football, so much so that they won a national championship. That's his fault that he was on one of the best teams, if not the best team, in college football, so much so that they won a national championship. That's his fault.
DK:That's his fault. Yeah, that's his fault.
TJ:Come on, what are we doing right now? I don't understand that. I don't understand that at all. It drives me nuts. I can't do it. We want to value one thing one minute and then the next minute something else is just as important, then something else becomes even more important in both of the two and then we finally come up to the decision that you know what the first thing that we valued actually that takes the cake. Right, what are we doing? What are we doing?
TJ:I just want some clarity, that's all. Maybe that's too much to ask, but I swear that's all I want, that's all I need, so that way I can actually fully enjoy this draft process. Because, I'll be honest with you, I wait until the day of the draft before I actually really get invested, because beforehand I don't want to hear a word. I really don't. I really don't. Hey, who's going number one, who's going number two? Okay, cool, I don't care about nothing else. After that, don't talk to me. I don't want to hear it All ears because of stuff like this. It just drives me crazy. Drives me crazy. I can't do it. Thank you for attending my soapbox. I thought it was very necessary.
DK:It's all good. It's all good, but you know something we're getting close to that time because it's NXT tonight.
TJ:Yeah, we got some good stuff to look up to on that one.
DK:Trick. Yeah, I'm going to wind down, absolutely. I'm going to get ready for that. But, like I said, we'll definitely be back here If anything pops up. We jumping on, if anything pops up, I'm pretty sure something else is going to happen this week Before the draft hits. Probably we can't wait Just as long as it's good news. Please, don't do nothing stupid. Probably we can't wait Just as long as it's good news, not bad, please.
TJ:Don't do nothing stupid.
DK:I'm going to go book a trip to Tennessee. I'm going to see if I can get a walk on, see if maybe I can get a whole bunch of money. I'm just saying they're paying money down there. Let me see if I can get a walk on. What do you want me to do? I mean y'all just handing out money down there. So, hey, listen, let me see if I can get a walk on, let me see if I can at least meet, least make the practice squad, or something oh man oh my god, I'm just saying that the way they're giving out money down there.
DK:Hey, listen, hey remember the comment for her agency money money tree, money tree. They got it down there, baby money tree, give us the money, show me the money you paid me $100,000, I'm happy, right, hey, see. I take a couple dollars, let's go. I'm just saying Tennessee giving away money.
DK:I'm just saying I'm just saying I'm just saying they're giving away money down there, I'm all for it. I'm all for it. You gave away damn near 100 million dollars to a receiver. You got money. You got some money. Maybe they got. Maybe I looked in the wrong place, maybe they got some mattresses back there and I didn't look through the mattress oh, oh.
TJ:No, maybe I looked in the wrong place. Maybe they got some mattresses back there and I didn't look through the mattress.
DK:Oh no.
TJ:Oh my gosh.
DK:Free money is for me. Hey, wait a minute, let me suit up. Hey, listen. Hey, we all on this bandwagon. Baby, we going to Tennessee.
TJ:Y'all are, Y'all are Something else man.
DK:Hey, listen, hey listen, Since they giving away money, I'm just saying I'm all for it. I'm all for it Because apparently, okay, I like this one. We, the B squad. Yeah, that's right.
TJ:Look, you know what I'm tired of all y'all. Y'all really want to think Tennessee going to provide money for y'all. You know the type of audience they want to give money to hey listen.
DK:Hey, we're responsible, not like some of the immature players. We're responsible people.
TJ:Hey, yes, I do have faith in y'all.
DK:I do have faith in y'all.
TJ:I do have faith in y'all, I do I do exactly see, we're responsible.
DK:You know we're not gonna do nothing. Hey look, this is what I want to do. Hey look, I'll sit on the sideline all day long. You need to put me in for a play. You put me in for a cup of play. I'll ride the bike the whole time on sideline. Okay, I'll do something to help us get through here. You know, even though I would have been upset when I'm down here, y'all gave up Derrick Henry, what's going on here? I'm like you got Tony Pollard down there, why, why. You know, I'm just saying See, look, the best of the best of the bench ride.
TJ:There you go, that's what I'm talking about.
DK:We ride baby.
TJ:This is so not okay. Y'all are something else, man.
DK:Hey, listen, I'm just saying if they giving away free money, we like free money. Hey, what do you need me to do? You want me go hit who? Oh, all right If he runs me over, I'm being human, highlight reel, unbelievable. You want me to tackle who? Okay, oh my gosh, I'm just saying, I'm just hey, they can even put me on special teams like I said give me a hundred, two hundred thousand I'm not greedy thousand, okay, two hundred thousand, I'm not greedy, I'm not greedy, I know I'm not worth millions from my style of play.
DK:Okay, I know I'm not worth millions, but give me a couple hundred thousand, I'm good oh my god, here you go you know, I mean program down there.
DK:Give me, you know, give me all the programs. You know, I we good, they could put me on a special bus something else man listen, hey, hey, I'm like, whatever it takes, hey, as long as hey, listen. If he coming down the sideline, hey, I'll do the Tomlin effect. Step in, step out, step in, step out. There you go, I'm helping the team. Oh my goodness, see, gotta love gotta love.
TJ:It's amazing what happens when money is online.
DK:I need to go find the mattresses down there. They got something down there Because interesting when they start drafting. Where are they going to get money to pay their rookie?
TJ:Oh you'd be surprised. They'll find a way.
DK:Hmm, my point exactly that means you got money. My point exactly that means you got money. My point exactly that means you got money. You got money. Oh my god, you got money. So why not give a little bit to me? I ain't asking for a lot. Pitch me off some. I'll ride that much as you need. I made the practice squad, baby oh my. I will flop around like LeBron doing the basketball we still doing this, man yes, we doing this, baby LeBron.
TJ:LeBron still flopping in 2024, really I can take the flop, the nfl stop stop, stop it. Well, you know the good news is, with this whole new tackle rule, you don't even have to flop, you can just fall on the ground. It's not like you can touch them anyway yeah, absolutely, hey, just put some flags on.

That's all. Oh my God, throw something on me, sure, terrible man, terrible. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely I agree with you. Yeah, the NFL is going to suck this season with that rule. Yeah, you know what it's getting to the point you can't even touch any player these days. Seriously, right, seriously.
TJ:Literally Seriously.
DK:Literally, especially after the Tom Brady rule.
TJ:Yep, you touched Tom.
DK:Brady, everybody throwing flags. Yeah, suit me up, especially because of the new rule. Yeah, I won't get hurt.
TJ:Like I'm genuinely curious how defenders are going to tackle this year, because I don't. I didn't know anything about a hip drop tackle two seasons ago. I just didn't, you didn't, I didn't. No one knew anything about a damn hip drop tackle two seasons ago. Now it's a thing. And now, all of a sudden, we just eliminating the tackle that we didn't know existed, all together.
DK:Yeah, okay, hey, that's better for us no CT, no CTS, and we get free money. Yeah, oh my God.

TJ:A hundred thousand air.
DK:I'm good with it. I'm good with it.
TJ:You know what man?
DK:Y'all that sound like you're ready to check out.
TJ:I can't believe y'all are doing this right now, pleading your case to the Tennessee Titans out of all teams to oh my God, who else is throwing money around?
DK:I'm just asking what other else is throwing money around. I'm just asking what other team is throwing money around.
TJ:I'm not going to lie Us. We just had two extensions in like two weeks in a row Within a month's span, and it wasn't cheap. So us maybe After Tennessee, maybe, I'm just maybe After Tennessee, maybe.
DK:I'm just saying Tennessee seems like they got an unlimited supply. So I'm going Tennessee. Wow, they seem like they got an unlimited supply down there. Oh, the Eagles Wildin.
TJ:Yeah, I think well Wildin is a little bit of a stretch. I think their contracts are actually a little bit more reasonable than everybody else. But you know, dang $30 million Positive $30 million for the Tennessee Titans. They have a lot more money to spend.
DK:All right, oh, that's their cap. 30 million, 30 million. They can give me a couple hundred dollars. I actually I'm not even asking for a million. Couple hundred thousand, give me at least 250. Quarter of a million. I'm good with that. Wow, I'm just saying quarter. That's not even going to touch that salary cap no, it's not that won't even put a dent in it mm, mm give me a year contract 250.
TJ:I'm good, one year 250 how do you make those moves in free agency? Contract $250,000. I'm good One year. How do you make those moves in free agency and you still have $30 million left?
DK:I'm just saying, I'm just saying that's where the wheeling and dealing about to come into play, sheesh and they wheeling and dealing.
TJ:Okay Well, that wheeling and dealing. Okay Well, that wheeling and dealing turns into five wins. I don't want to hear a word.
DK:I don't want to hear a word. I'm going to meet you in Nashville, then we can go over to the Titans and get our money, absolutely.
TJ:I'm there, absolutely.
