00:00crazy stuff could still happen right like guys are going to get released uh one dude i've been
00:05curious about was jonathan grenard with the vikings who what was that maybe last week uh
00:12the news came out they're going to let him try to seek a trade generally when you're letting a
00:17veteran try to seek a trade means you're going to release them i don't i don't think they're going
00:22to be able to um trade him especially now with five hours till the problem is aging i'm smart
00:29i'll go out there you send me a secret trade i'm going to talk to people and you let the
00:33ones know
00:34who you want to talk to i'm not doing your job for you so i'll come back say nobody won't
00:40talk to me
00:41you let me go i'm signing within 10 minutes uh grenard will turn 29 at the end of may but
00:47the
00:48reason that's a name that i am keeping an eye on is because he played for he played in minnesota
00:53the last two seasons with durante jones he's another versatile piece if you're i love how
00:59durante jones was super dismissive of three four verse four three and just kind of said we're going
01:04to play multiple fronts but grenard is a guy that's played dn and outside linebacker like he's
01:10a versatile piece six three 260 um i don't know what that market will look like but when i say
01:17that
01:17there's going to be more moves today and more guys are going to become available than maybe everybody's
01:22expecting that's kind of an example of it we have gotten i don't want to give this too much credit
01:31but i think people have been way overly critical of washington's approach to free agency be they put
01:39out not all guaranteed money right but in signed contracts on monday yeah it's 140 million dollars
01:46on the first day of the tampering period and that's not even counting tonsil yeah then but
01:51they they they went out the address situations no they have not done everything no team has done
01:59everything they need to do and i think i think a lot of our fan bases fan base is just
02:06damn delusional
02:07you expect them to fill the whole team today yesterday it's not happening so i mean it's a lot of
02:17people
02:18it's not everybody but the loudest sometimes not the majority but they just want to complain and you
02:24know what go ahead i don't care because i know they've done more than what people said saying they
02:31did so jeremy reeves is a guy you and i both know both like uh revo is pretty funny on
02:37twitter
02:38revo this morning tweeted out y'all be crashing out for real on here he's right and somebody replied to
02:47him nate robinson said we need better players on this team not a bunch of low tier feel good story
02:52mfs revo responded we don't got many of those boss man last time i checked and then somebody else
02:59replied to him buddy want us to be content with being bleep all our lives and he said yeah you're
03:05the main one but i'll tip my cap because you know a little ball with a crying emoji so i
03:11just think a lot
03:12of this is funny um last night on nbc4 we ran a wale tweet which was just a perfect encapsulation
03:21of
03:21where things are at
03:34and but his best one was everybody fake mad at adam peters these players are going to go where
03:39they want to go he can't force these guys raise hail it ain't over i want to let fans weigh
03:46in
03:47right because we're gonna have a really busy show once the new league year opens at noon things are
03:51gonna get nuts so we're gonna do some phones for uh for the next half hour or so 800-636
03:57-1067
03:58800-636-1067 we had people calling in yesterday flipping out that they hadn't made a move in the
04:05second day of free agency romeo dobbs then chooses to go to new england there's some reporting that he
04:11wanted to play with drake may i don't know that that means he wanted to play with drake may over
04:15jayden daniels but people are going to extrapolate what they want i also think and mitch disler pointed this
04:21out to me if you're romeo dobbs and right now you're going to new england they just released
04:26digs dobbs is the number one yeah i i still kind of think new england's going to trade for aj
04:31brown
04:32but like as of today as of his signing he's going to new england to be the number one receiver
04:37terry
04:37mclaurin is is still the number one receiver in washington right so we'll see where a lot of this
04:44lands we've heard over and over and over again on alec pierce linderbaum trey hendrickson we're
04:50hearing it now on dobbs that washington was in it they were aggressive but the money they didn't have
04:56the final best offer right if you want to be so i think people were freaking out then they signed
05:04chanel yesterday i ryan perfect time for me i had to be live at 655 they signed him at like
05:10648 i needed
05:11that um because it was a slow day prior but they signed chanel then they signed chase on if you
05:19look
05:19now defensively at what they've done everybody said you got to fix the defense you got to fix the
05:25defense we have no idea if it's fixed we're not going to know that till halloween right but they've
05:31now signed oway chase on chanel tim settle amik robertson yeah like that is significant like you
05:40you needed edge rushing help right so you get oway and chase on they can still add yeah oway is
05:47a real
05:47piece you went top of market for a player like and you can't go top of market for every piece
05:53no team out there has top of market at every position although a lot of our fans think so
06:00that's what they're expecting it's not happening let's let people on the phones weigh in i have seen
06:08somebody um i i liked one of these tweets i saw it where this dude was apologizing to adam peters
06:17like
06:18yeah i saw that it's been an entertaining 24 hours 48 hours on social media i think we should all
06:23just
06:24kind of chill out a little let's start with will in fairfax will how you feeling now we're four and
06:29a
06:30half hours away till the new league year open i feel like we got a lot of work done on
06:35the defensive
06:35side of the ball you got younger i think the oldest one of these
06:54made good piece or good acquisitions to fill some pieces now it opens up the door to go get uh
07:00love
07:01out of notre dame and now you got a real threat you've done what you needed to do and hopefully
07:05you got a little money left to the kitty to grab someone if they get chopped for uh i do
07:09first
07:11appreciate it man good call um i got this tweet from robert luke and i want to give him credit
07:16he tweeted me and you but he said i want to apologize to peters for myself and on behalf of
07:22a lot of fans
07:22we overreacted in the first 24 to 36 hours of free agency ap has addressed a lot of our defensive
07:28issues the initial reaction was from fan passion i'm not mad at fans for freaking out that's what you're
07:35supposed to do no you're not you're not supposed to freak out you're supposed to get smart sometimes
07:38i mean we we got to stop perpetuating this and making them think it's okay just to be stupid all
07:43the time sometimes they got to act like they have some damn sense my only thing was i got a
07:48picture
07:48for all of them i should send this out shouldn't show it to joey on monumental there you go joy
07:52let's our guy toothpick is on the line pick how you feeling by the fcc pick how you feeling now
07:59that you know a little bit of time has passed we're not even 48 hours into the tampering period
08:05but washington has added i would say i mean five defensive pieces
08:12some of whom i think are pretty significant i i like it jp listen what they say if you got
08:17one if
08:18you got one go get another one if you got two go get three right multiple is what they doing
08:23i even
08:24like what we did in the secondary because hey think about it how many times have a wide receiver started
08:29outside and wound up in the slot and then they get confused now if they do that to mikey and
08:34robinson
08:34then them two can switch responsibilities no problem so i really like what they're doing on
08:39the defense and it gives us all the flexibility in the world when it comes to the draft now
08:43stay patient let adam peters cook man we so fast to crash out on adam and then if if we're
08:51not buying
08:52everybody top of the market then they say the owners are broke just be patient let's let this thing
08:57breathe you're not gonna have your 53 this week let it breathe let it happen they're gonna build this
09:03thing right thanks hey bro thanks pic appreciate you but i'm gonna keep the phones going how we
09:09feeling about nfl free agency um dusty is in marshall what's up dusty what's up guys how are you
09:19we're good dude how are you good good good hey man i just want to tell the fan base and
09:24we gotta
09:25we gotta relax on all this nonsense uh it's not a good look for our fan base
09:33man it's a good call i can't hear a word he's saying marshall um bad bad bad single marshall's out
09:41past greg's house out there uh our guy mark is in largo what's up mark i'm gonna talk directly to
09:49uh
09:50to uh be mitch about this man i'm still furious as hell and i'm gonna tell you why it has
09:55nothing
09:55to do with everything else i'm looking at the offensive side of the ball the most important
10:00person in this franchise jayden daniels and jayden daniels is getting treated is it didn't
10:04treat it like a side piece i'm gonna just keep it i'm just keep it 100 this isn't the first
10:09time
10:09he got treated like this last year and now he's getting treated by the way jp do you know that
10:14isaiah likely wanted to come here and was told by adam peters that 13 million is too high
10:21he wanted to come here wanted to come here isaiah likely yeah i i heard i saw that report
10:31but you don't just pay people just because they tell you what the price is you have a you have
10:37a
10:37mindset what the price is but but you you say jayden is being treated like a side piece
10:42dude jayden jayden was in a better position than that damn defense was in
10:47that if jayden has been the defense was terrible dude the defense was the damn
10:53the the the the what's going on all of the damn sewage in the what's called okay and yeah
11:00that's so but we don't play tomorrow mark we don't play tomorrow but brian but brian brian here
11:06i feel you on that i do i feel you on that there's no problem with that but i'm sick
11:11and tired of
11:12hearing we were close or on tears we just didn't pull it in okay he chose he chose to go
11:19back to the
11:19scene that's bad who cares i understand i understand mark mark mark let me tell you one thing bro
11:25you can talk loud and yell i'm not gonna back down from you so no what i'm trying to say
11:31is you'd
11:31like to call and yell you don't know everything dude no brian i'm not trying to get in a fight
11:37with you bro no i'm not trying to get in a fight i'm just saying we have to understand just
11:42because
11:42you talk loud don't mean you know what you're talking about they're not treating him like a
11:46side piece dude if if we had finished if we had finished signing everybody i would i would go along
11:53with you mark but at this point i think what you're saying is asking that you know can i ask
11:58something mark go ahead go ahead jp go ahead is making the left tackle the highest paid left tackle
12:04in football side piece action okay i'm not talking about that what about receiving core
12:10last year they traded for debo all right all right brian let me ask you this brian i don't think
12:17listen specific to likely i don't think the organization was that high on likely i think it's pretty
12:22obvious now so you can say that you could you could have problems with that evaluation but like
12:28just because he wanted to come here i want to drive a range rover i drive a forerunner you know
12:33what i'm
12:33saying okay can answer this question answer this question and then y'all can go on and say it seems
12:39to me it seems to me the only receiver that he can get a 49 of receivers now that's what
12:46it seems to me
12:47he can't get anybody else but 49 of receivers and i know i'm not the only one that's noticed that
12:53well i think he's signed 149 of receivers so far so i don't know what you're talking about
12:58i can't i can't justify that at this point
13:04bmich i love you man i'm not trying to argue with you it's not that i'm trying to argue but
13:08i i listen
13:09man i look bro i could tell you whenever you call and a lot of other calls and y'all
13:14i know exactly
13:14what y'all gonna say like like i listen bro i i am a person who listens and remembers and
13:21the story
13:21and the the approach is the same every damn time see jp jp has patience i would have probably hung
13:28up
13:28on you i'm gonna be honest with you i don't have that much patience for people when people think they
13:33know more about a sport than i think i know and you don't no i don't listen to it we
13:39got a break
13:39anyway thanks for the call mark appreciate you man i i have heard they have not addressed offense
13:46right they have not added anyone in free agency are they playing tomorrow or today i also think
13:52and i i pointed this out to mark if you want to talk about the offensive side of the football
13:57what's the most important position on offense quarterback right yeah what's the second most
14:01important position tackle left tackle like that was the first thing they did and yes that's not
14:07bringing in someone new and do they need to add to the receiving core yes but to say
14:16it go back to the end of the season when the defense was awful go back to that stretch where
14:23they got blown out by three touchdowns to four straight opponents and it was something that
14:28hadn't been done in two decades like they had to address the defense i think they've moved fast on that
14:34now i personally am kind of tired of the man we were in on him but we didn't get there
14:39that sounds a
14:40little spinny to me who cares free agency is a zero-sum game you know the whole thing about it
14:44this is the
14:45thing that i think people don't get you can offer the best deal and a person can still go somewhere
14:51else
14:52and how is that you're trying to spin something if i offer you and you accept you decide to go
14:59to
14:59another place that's your choice i think we keep forgetting that the player has a damn right to
15:05choose where you want to go i just don't get it i also think the reporting suggests that alec pierce
15:13chose to stay in indy cool we don't know with romeo dobbs say new england was offering 22 mil and
15:21washington's like listen man i can't go past 20 you you you've never even had a thousand yard season
15:26you've never had a 900 yard season like i think we're trying to draw way too many conclusions
15:31offensively i still think there's going to be more players released i think there's going to be more
15:36options i never thought they were going to aggressively pursue tight end check the tapes i've
15:41been saying that here like there was a class of tight ends with chigakakwa isaiah likely and kate
15:47i thought were the class of this free agency cycle i wasn't sure they were going to be in on
15:52any of
15:53them plus chigakakwa is still available so like we live in a microwave society and one of the fun
15:59things with free agency is to get emotional about all the decisions i don't knock bam out of bio for
16:07wanting to set a record i don't knock fans for getting upset i just try to say be patient man
16:13the new league year hasn't even opened
16:15the new league year hasn't even opened
16:15the new league year hasn't even opened
16:15the new league year hasn't even opened opened
