00:03 - Look, so I mentioned there was some
00:04 little running back news earlier on
00:06 and we'd get to it now.
00:08 And that's that the Miami Dolphins
00:11 are making some phone calls to the Vegas Raiders
00:14 to see if they can bring Josh Jacobson.
00:17 Now, apparently Vegas has told them no.
00:22 That part's a little confusing
00:24 because I thought McDaniels
00:27 wanted a running back by committee anyway.
00:30 They obviously have no intentions of paying Josh Jacobs.
00:34 So hear Miami out.
00:36 I don't, again, I don't know exactly
00:38 what Miami's willing to offer,
00:40 but I think the bigger takeaway,
00:42 even in the world where the Dolphins land Josh Jacobs
00:45 is this team is serious.
00:49 How the heck did they not add Dalvin Cook, man?
00:52 How in the world did they not end up with Dalvin Cook?
00:57 The interesting part about this too is yes,
00:58 the thing I like about the Miami Dolphins,
01:00 they're always looking to upgrade their room,
01:01 but consistently their coach and their general manager,
01:04 what are you talking about?
01:05 We love our running back room,
01:06 but they're in on every single running back
01:07 in the market here.
01:08 But let's focus, Kevin, here on taking a look
01:11 at the Miami Dolphins if they add Jacobs.
01:12 It would be awesome to watch it.
01:14 If Tua stays healthy, again,
01:15 you have a rightful spot here to think big things
01:19 for the Miami Dolphins.
01:19 But hear me out on this.
01:21 Is this a case of the Raiders going,
01:23 okay, Josh McDaniels is there.
01:24 He's trying to hang on for his life.
01:26 Are they a better football team this year
01:28 by getting a draft pick back
01:30 or having Jacobs in the backfield?
01:31 Is this just a selfish move overall
01:34 about maybe a GM and a head coach trying to save their job
01:37 from Mark Davis firing them
01:38 because they're having a bad season?
01:40 They're going to have a bad season here.
01:41 There is no reason.
01:42 You let it be known last year
01:44 when you were the head honcho coach,
01:45 and I'm gonna change things up here,
01:47 and Josh Jacobs on the market,
01:48 you might've got Josh Jacobs for a fifth round draft pick
01:50 after the Hall of Fame game last year,
01:52 but it turns out he's one of the best backs in football.
01:54 Now, the fact that you don't wanna pay him
01:56 and you're going to stink this year
01:58 means you probably should trade him down the line
02:00 for a draft capital.
02:01 That's what I can't figure out.
02:02 Is this just a selfish move here by the Vegas Raiders
02:04 to hold on where coach says,
02:06 hey, I gotta keep a lot of guys here intact here
02:08 'cause I might be able to save my job.
02:09 The smart business move is,
02:11 if you don't wanna pay Jacobs,
02:12 move him for a draft pick and move on.
