00:00I brought up the Eagles because there are multiple places.
00:02It's unconfirmed, obviously, but there's enough smoke where I think there's probably fire here,
00:07where it seems like A.J. Brown is being traded as a post-Tune first designation to the New England
00:15Patriots.
00:15Now, none of those reports stated what the return is from New England.
00:21I know you were telling me off air that word in Philadelphia is that Harry Roseman would only trade A
00:25.J. Brown
00:26for A, multiple picks, and B, there's got to be a first-round pick in there.
00:31Yeah, because look at the Waddle trade just now.
00:33He's not taking less than that.
00:35A.J. Brown is slightly a year older, but a better player than Waddle.
00:38So he's not going to take less return.
00:40No.
00:40The fact that they got a first and a third and a fourth swap, so to keep that aside,
00:46first and a third for Waddle, and everyone agrees A.J. Brown is a better wide receiver.
00:51I think that's the market.
00:53So if you want to give me a first and a high third, a low second, whatever it is,
00:57I think that's the market.
00:58But there are like three or four different outlets saying that apparently,
01:02and again, non-confirmed yet, and the Eagles haven't commented, neither have the Patriots,
01:06but as an Eagle fan, do you support that?
01:10He's your best wide receiver.
01:11He is.
01:12We know about the sideline nonsense, and I love Devontae Smith,
01:16but A.J. Brown is your best wide receiver.
01:18Would you support?
01:20Would it be a major overhaul there?
01:23I know Dotson was a third receiver, and they only had like a handful of catches.
01:27This would be a big deal if Philly says goodbye to A.J. Brown.
01:31It is.
01:31At the same time, I don't love it, but the thing is, right now the Eagles have the most
01:37expensive offense in the NFL, but they have some bills due coming on the defensive side
01:41of the ball because of the cap.
01:43Quinion Mitchell, Cooper to G, and Carter all are set to get paid.
01:49So the defense is going to start getting more and more expensive.
01:52You can't spend everywhere.
01:54Shedding that salary with a post-June 1st designation, so that it's $20 million versus
01:59$40 million that they cannot afford, might be necessary to get everybody signed on the
02:04defensive side of the ball that you want to keep.
02:06So I don't love it, but they may have to do it to hold on to the keepers on the
02:10other
02:10side of the ball.
02:10It seems like they're trying to overhaul things without breaking it down.
02:15Right.
02:15And what I mean by that is, you know, look, Lane Johnson said he is coming back, right?
02:19So that's a big deal, obviously, for the protection and for the running game, because their running
02:23game is a lot different when that kid plays and their offense.
02:25Look, when that guy's in, their offense goes, whoop.
02:28When that guy comes out, it was that kind of thing.
02:30And it's really, you can draw a graft of how the offense is and the running game when Lane
02:36Johnson's in versus when he's out.
02:38I mean, he's just a special right tackle, maybe the best right tackle of his generation
02:41and a first bout Hall of Famer.
02:43What's interesting, though, is, you know, you said goodbye to a couple important pieces
02:48from your Super Bowl championship team.
02:51You did.
02:51You had, what's his name, the white safety.
02:53Reed Blankenship, he's in Houston.
02:55I saw his comments yesterday in Houston.
02:57Said he didn't feel appreciated.
02:58About how I was never appreciated in Philadelphia as a player, and this is his words, not mine,
03:05or as a person.
03:06To me, that's like a, I think that's a color thing, is what he's alluding to there, that
03:11white safeties don't exist in the NFL.
03:14They had a podcast that was very popular in Philadelphia.
03:16Yeah, the white guys, right?
03:17The whole exciting whites thing, which I was uncomfortable saying until he told me it was
03:21okay.
03:21Yeah, him and, what's his name?
03:23Cooper DeGee.
03:24Cooper DeGee.
03:24The way it going anywhere.
03:25They literally told me it was okay.
03:27I was uncomfortable saying it.
03:28But that's what he's saying without saying it.
03:30Yeah.
03:30He's like, I've only been here for a day, and I already feel more appreciated as a player
03:36and as a person, which tells you, and I'm shocked by this, because Philadelphia, as
03:43much as I bust its balls, is absolutely a racist town.
03:49It is.
03:50I mean.
03:50It is.
03:51I want to defend it.
03:53I want to defend it.
03:54You know I'm right.
03:55I can't.
03:56Yeah.
03:56I can't.
03:57Like, there's still people like, black quarterback?
03:59Nah.
04:00Nah.
04:00The guy won a Super Bowl.
04:02Nah.
04:03Look.
04:03He'll put Tanner McKee in.
04:05You know, he'll never reach.
04:06I have people tell me, Hurts, he'll never beat Nick Foles.
04:09He'll never win.
04:09No, no.
04:10Nick Foles, he won the first one.
04:12That one matters more.
04:13Right.
04:13And then you got the opposite.
04:15Like, white safety?
04:17Nah.
04:18Right?
04:19But white people are like, yeah.
04:21We've got a white safety.
04:23We've got a white safety.
