00:00I mean, if you want to look at it from a numbers perspective, Shyam, you ended up getting a better

00:08where you landed draft-wise. What you got from him is better than where he came from.

00:13Yeah. I mean, you move up basically a half a round. That's it. Like, cool. Good for you.

00:18That's great. Great value. Good job. That's fine. It doesn't matter.

00:21The only thing you could have did differently is maybe you keep him around and you play him

00:26a little bit in the preseason. And maybe that fifth round pick that you get back from him

00:31goes up to a fourth. But at that point- It wasn't going up from preseason play.

00:34Well, no, I'm not saying that 100% was, but that's the only other option you roll in the dice. I

00:41don't mind you get back a fifth round pick for him. This is Walter from Boston. Walter,

00:47good morning. Happy Friday. Happy Friday. Happy Red Sox Day. Thank you guys for the sanity.

00:53Because yesterday, I love listening to the station. I almost wanted to throw my TV. It was

00:59crazy. Six years. It was so out of nowhere. I was listening yesterday. I think, and I will talk to

01:08Jones when he gets in here. Was Jones upset about it yesterday? I was arguing with him yesterday.

01:16They were trying to say, you could go right now on podcasts on YouTube in Tennessee and Michigan

01:22and they're laughing. Because every time Joe Milton faced the real defense,

01:26they schemed it up. It was a pick waiting to happen. And it's like, nobody would have drafted

01:31him if the Patriots didn't draft him. And he played a good game against practice squad players. And

01:36people are doing around here like they did for Kerry Olenek. We can't lose him. You guys have

01:41a great day. Thanks for the sanity. They were talking about developing him for

01:47another year and what he turns into after that. Well, clearly by this return, they had zero

01:54interest in keeping him. They just wanted to get him out of the building. And either Vrabel came in

01:58and goes, this guy can't play. I don't want him on my football team. Or Drake May said to Mike

02:02Vrabel, hey, I don't want him in the locker room. Please get him out of here. Either way, who cares?

02:06If it's the latter, that is not a good sign. It doesn't matter. It absolutely does. I know

02:11what you will be. There is something. There may be something. I'm breathing just fine. I hope

02:15you are. Relax. It's a Friday. It's a Friday. Exactly.
