00:03you got a punter jordan stout is uh signed with the uh giants to make him the highest paid punter
00:11in the league four million dollars a year uh and this from adam schefter breaking news
00:18alex anzalone former detroit lion linebacker signing a two-year 17.8 million dollar deal
00:26with the buccaneers so this is kind of interesting because alex anzalone came to detroit on a three-year
00:3418.3 million dollar deal so he got a raise he renegotiated for last year one year 6.25
00:45so anzalone at this point in his career i mean is probably thrilled to get a raise
00:54if he was looking for more money to stay in detroit i i mean i don't want to sound callous
00:59but i'm kind of comfortable with having moving on from him loved his effort here in detroit
01:06loved it guy was a heart and soul of this defense for a long time yeah and you know i'm
01:13gonna guess
01:13here that this one hurts them at a from a like personally i bet it wasn't easy for them to
01:19say
01:19goodbye and but was alex anzalone going to come back to detroit for more money would would what
01:28do i mean right it sure didn't seem like the lions were interested in paying him more based on the
01:33negotiation last year and i don't know that we got a lot of calls from people saying whatever it takes
01:37don't lose alex anzalone now that doesn't mean that the man doesn't deserve you you're worth what
01:42someone will pay you be clear on that and i again don't wish him any ill will but if the
01:48lions
01:48had brought him back and given him a raise i think people in detroit would have been surprised
01:54by people i mean fans i would have been surprised uh i would have been surprised that they gave him
01:59a raise yeah and i i thought when you're looking at we're looking for any way to find some kind
02:04of
02:04cap space and you know do you really want to spend more on him or do you want to trust
02:09that extra
02:10linebacker job to to someone that you're gonna draft um does this mean that malcolm rodriguez
02:18is gonna stick around well malcolm rodriguez looks like the kind of player that if i were another
02:23team looking to pilfer a quality young player off of a roster where he's been stuck on the depth chart
02:31that would be a player i would target and and yet you know at this point
02:40um you know the lions do they have a plan for malcolm rodriguez who i believe is still under contract
02:49uh no my apologies he is also a free agent he's probably gonna get a pretty big deal
02:56i don't know if he got a big deal but will the lions try and keep him will they try
03:00and keep
03:00al-quadim muhammad that feels unlikely given the fact that jalen phillips who had five sacks
03:07has this is the one that still blows my mind today i can't believe it four years 120 million dollars
03:14four years 120 million dollars free agent signings coming fast and furious i think that is such a
03:20signings agreements my apologies i gotta get that right that to me is a reckless contract now
03:26fortunately it doesn't set the market um to make it really reckless but it's reckless i i can't believe
03:33they're doing this for a guy that just doesn't get to the quarterback you're gonna hand him 30 million
03:40dollars a year he was amongst those near the top of the league and pressures but and pressures can
03:47help but that seems like the kind of contract and that's what makes him a valuable player the contract
03:52he signed is the kind of contract i would expect that goes to a player that gets to the quarterback
03:57way more i value pressures i value him a lot but wow it's a big contract it's a big contract
04:06by the way joey lucchese left-handed pitcher has agreed to turn to the san francisco giants just
04:11thought i'd mix that uh al is in southfield and he's on 97 one what's up al hi i'm hi
04:20doug and scott
04:21uh uh you kind of answered my question my al could then muhammad because i wanted to see him
04:26back with the detroit lions because i thought he did a very nice job at defensive end um and do
04:31it and he
04:31was i could turn one of the bright spots in that in the injury riddled season the lines hand in
04:372025
04:37but now now you're saying he may come back because of what you just mentioned i'm a second ago i
04:42mean
04:42i guess it doesn't rule him out completely al uh but this is a guy who's been in the league
04:47for a long time and has never really scored a massive contract i have to go back and look and
04:53had his most productive year in detroit and it feels like at his age of 30 he is probably going
05:01to be looking to get a contract his his eight years in the league he's made 17.4 million dollars
05:06which is wonderful money in the real world in the nfl at his age of 30 he might be able
05:13to land a
05:13contract that pays him close to that for a year given what he just did yeah i want to quickly
05:20give
05:20my champion chump of the weekend uh my my champ is the other michigan state uh wolverine's basketball
05:26team both men and women and my chump is uh jeremy fears um that what he did yesterday he you
05:33can't
05:33you just can't tolerate that kind of stuff and in in in college basketball or in the nba for that
05:39matter and i have a feeling i'm kind of concerned that he may be coming the next uh grayson allen
05:45and
05:45that's my concern i hope i just come as i have to keep reminding him of the fact you can't
05:49do this
05:50stuff especially when it comes into the postseason like he told because his value you can't let it
05:54cost you in a game in a postseason because that's all that matters right now is is the big tournament
05:59and if he does something dumb that results in free throws for the other team or his ejection
06:05that's going to be problematic and he's going to have to live with that i think he meant the
06:09michigan wolverines although he said the michigan state wolverines but um so tom palacero just
06:15tweeted this out yeah the commanders are signing veteran cornerback amik robertson to a two-year
06:2116 million dollar deal with 9.3 guaranteed so lions don't have many corners on their roster that are
06:31that are healthy there's a question mark about one of them who's you know questionable how healthy is
06:37with terry and arnold and now we the question is not about that the question is about you know
06:41off field stuff and his involvement or or non-involvement in a perhaps a criminal act
06:48so this is uh this is problematic because now that it just adds to the list of more things you
06:53need to
06:54to hang on to i don't know if the lions were trying to to keep amik robertson on this team
07:00he's a very
07:01good slot corner with his team really like him better at the slot than i think outside but right now
07:06they have maybe terry and arnold no no and it's rake straw he still hasn't played what rock yassine
07:14what's his contract for it's uh the one that amik robertson just signed yeah two years 16
07:22so in detroit over two years he made roughly nine and a half million so this is a raise although
07:30it's
07:30not an exorbitant raise no and i can see why they let anzalone go amik i would have loved to
07:41have seen
07:41stay at that price the bears staying in the division are signing defensive backs safety kobe bryant
07:50take him from seattle pretty solid move there yep i have a feeling we're going to start getting
07:57freak out calls in three two one with anzalone signing somewhere else today i think robert
08:03signing somewhere else today i don't know if anybody's going to freak out about either of
08:07those maybe more so i would think more so about amik than than anzalone because you know anzalone's
08:12on the downside of his career but he's still a really good player um but adding
08:20to the need at corner doesn't doesn't thrill me yeah and seeing fast and furious players sign
08:31elsewhere um i am i mean i'm sure the lions are involved it's just we haven't they haven't agreed
08:39i keep saying signed they haven't agreed to a deal anywhere else but amik robertson no longer
08:44detroit lion two years 17 million with the commanders tom pelisaro on the report isaac and
08:49royal oak you're on 97 one hi isaac i heard the bat signal for a freak out call and i
08:54was already on
08:54hold so like who's playing in the secondary next year kirby joseph's on one leg brian
09:01branch has got a blown achilles period still a question mark amik robertson was the only one
09:07that we could relatively count on i mean are they going to sign dj reed again i i and we
09:11i've heard
09:12nothing um yeah i realized it's an hour and 25 minutes into this but i i feel lots of anxiety
09:19guys dj reed he's here though right dj reed is under contract um i'm almost 100 sure of that but
09:26yes the um i mean i get it like you know you they're not going to get shut out in
09:33free agency
09:34but they they really you know they haven't been linked to anybody as of yet and all we can do
09:41is
09:41wait isaac at tiktok um as as as we as we try to say when things are good are you
09:47don't want
09:47people to panic because there's no need for it yet let it play out they also haven't announced
09:53anything about the restructuring no no they haven't said anything about that either yeah
09:58and so i'm getting ready to go tee off gator it's going to be beautiful i'll be listening
