Parkins & Spiegel like that Caleb Williams asked for a no-franchise tag clause

"You should ask questions" in contract negotiations, Danny Parkins says.

Transcript

00:00Look at Caleb man, look at Caleb trying to get any little thing he could possibly get

00:05even after the NFL has clamped down and tried to make these first round contracts just boilerplate.

00:11Yeah, this doesn't bother me one percent. It really doesn't. He signed reportedly,

00:22we still don't have it confirmed, but reportedly now signed. He's asking questions. It reminds me

00:29of a toddler pushing the boundaries. Oh, it's like, can I jump off the couch? Can I jump off

00:34the arm of the couch? Can I jump off the mantle of the fireplace? It's like, no, that one would

00:41be a problem, buddy. That would be a problem. Have you ever thought of telling him, hey,

00:45if you can get up there, then you can jump. Right. It'd be tricky. You're ready to be a parent.

00:51You're right. It reminds me of Ruben saying I'd like 9.30 bedtime. Well, how about 10?

00:57Well, how about 1030 and continuing to negotiate? Some parents like when their children learn to

01:02negotiate and push against those boundaries a little bit. You're training them for life

01:08on some level. Yeah, it's just you should ask questions. You should. Hey, is there something

01:13here? Is there something there? Is there a little something, something for the effort?

01:17Whatever the case, you know, you know how cool it is. You said we should ask questions.

01:22We must ask questions in honor of this frequency. The old WMAQ. We must ask questions here on 670

01:30back and back in the day. Yes, absolutely. Let's go with. We must ask questions. I love that. It's

01:35just he really hasn't disrupted anything yet. He really hasn't because he's not a bag, but

01:44but he's he's part of it. He's pushing and asking and trying, which gives us a little bit of a

01:48window into some of the ideas that are going to come up in the next collective bargaining agreement.

01:52Right. You think that there's going to be the NFL? PA will have that on their list of things

01:58that they will either ask for or just put there that they'll be ready to concede. Can we lose

02:03the ability to franchise a quarterback who's in the top 10? Something like that.
