00:00So was there a little bit of news here that happened in the break, Dan?
00:03Something with Will Anderson.
00:06Yeah.
00:07Ian Rappaport, NFL Network Texans and All-Pro Edge.
00:11Will Anderson Jr. have agreed on a three-year, $150 million extension,
00:19$134 million guaranteed to make him the highest-paid non-quarterback ever.
00:25Damn.
00:26Good for you.
00:27$50 million a year.
00:28Wow.
00:29Holy smokes.
00:30Am I reading that right?
00:30$50 million a year?
00:31Yeah.
00:32What's Miles think of that?
00:33I don't know.
00:34What does Miles think of that?
00:37I mean, they play the same position, don't they?
00:40Yeah.
00:41Essentially.
00:43He is younger.
00:45Yeah.
00:45He's what, 24?
00:46He's really good.
00:47He is really good.
00:48He's a dynamite player.
00:50I tell you, that team, if they add a little something on that defense
00:55and maybe a playmaker or two on offense, they're knocking on the door again.
01:00I mean, 300 or 30 sacks in three seasons.
01:03Browns built them into what they are.
01:05Let's be honest.
01:07Was that our pick?
01:08They got him?
01:09Uh-huh.
01:10That was the third overall pick, yeah.
01:12There you go.
01:13Hey, it happens.
01:14Hang on.
01:15I'm going to go give myself a swirly.
01:17It's all good.
01:18It's all good.
01:19It's so disheartening.
01:24Well, this, I mean, you know, could this trigger another contract situation
01:31with Miles?
01:32Like, you know, we saw what happened.
01:35Didn't we just have one?
01:35Well, we did.
01:36We just had a contract situation.
01:37Who knows?
01:38But the question might not be our contract situation.
01:43It might be his contract situation with another team.
01:46Yeah.
01:48That talk is not going away.
01:49I told you it would not.
01:51And it's not going to anytime soon.
01:53Is he, what was the, someone pitched to us the other day, Dan.
01:58A trade?
01:59Yeah.
01:59That you trade him in the six.
02:03Somebody, who was it with, Dan, that we would end up getting three first-round
02:09picks in the next two years, and we would be moving back?
02:13Oh, the Dallas one?
02:14Was it Dallas?
02:15Yeah, I think Daryl was the one who threw that one out.
02:18Would you do that?
02:19He wants a 27 first.
02:21You can see why Dallas would be interested in them.
02:23You can see why any team would be interested in them.
02:24I just feel like Dallas will pay the most.
02:27Yeah.
02:27And this goes back to what I said to you a couple weeks ago.
02:30This is, the hot donuts light is on, right?
02:33They made that move, and it is obviously a, you know, a bat signal across the league
02:39that you want to talk, let's talk.
02:41But, Jets, the other question that always comes with it is, why would you, if you're
02:46the Cowboys, why would you trade Mike Parsons to then turn around and trade for
02:52Miles?
02:52No.
02:53Have you ever heard of a team making sort of a knee-jerk move that they regret?
02:57I mean, but.
02:58I think that's, it says, welcome to Cleveland, home of the knee-jerk move that we regret.
03:03And how often do those work out?
03:05Is that what that sign says?
03:05Yeah.
03:06It says, it says, it used to say All-American City.
03:08Now it says.
03:10Now it says.
03:11Regretville.
03:12Isn't that call throwing good money after bad?
03:15Like.
03:15Yeah.
03:16They're not the only franchise that's done that.
03:17So, you know, I don't know.
03:19I'm, I'm, I'm, I'll be very intrigued to see what move the Browns make in the first
03:25round.
03:26And should they take a defensive end?
03:28Oh my God.
03:29Will that discussion.
03:30We just said this.
03:31Did you?
03:32I'm sorry.
03:32No, no, no.
03:33We talked about this yesterday.
03:34I was like, if they take a defensive end, wow.
03:37How, how great would it look to be to see a nice, like David Bailey or Arvel Reese, you
03:44know, or, um, Ruben Bain, like if they took one of those guys and you paired them up with
03:51Miles Garrett, I don't know where I, I, that's gotta be a defensive nightmare around offensive
03:56nightmare for anybody who's playing against the Browns, right?
03:59Yeah.
03:59If you take one of these guys that could be the next.
04:01Oh yeah.
04:02With the current pair him up.
04:04Yeah, no, I'm with you.
04:04But I think what, that's not the way it's going to be perceived.
04:07It's going to be perceived as they took one of these guys at six, a position that they
04:12really didn't.
04:13It's, this is a, we're taking the best player on the board, not a position of need.
04:18And it is going to drive speculation that they did that to replace Miles.
04:22Well, and it's also driving speculation that we haven't heard from Miles and all of this,
04:26right?
04:26I mean, at one point is he going to quiet dude, man.
04:28He is in general.
04:29I agree.
04:30Unless you're at the Superbowl on radio row and you're looking for a trade or unless you
04:34want to throw your coach under the bus in the last couple of weeks of the season, then
04:37you're going to hear from him.
04:38Yeah.
04:38I don't want, I hate getting negative on miles.
04:41I just, I like miles.
04:42I'm not, I'm not, I'm just being funny.
04:44I just don't know.
04:44I'm like, I, it's, and this is nothing about miles Garrett, the person.
04:48This is the business.
04:49Like how often do you hear?
04:50Well, it's a business move.
04:51The players say it all the time.
04:53Well, players say it all the time.
04:55So now I think on our side of it, the fans have got to say, well, it's, it's a business
04:59move.
05:00And Andy, we're only a little more than a year removed from him demanding a trade and
05:03then doing a full one 80 from that.
05:05So it's all possible.
05:08You know, sometimes it's just all it takes is a glass of water and millions of dollars.
05:13That's it.
05:15Simple.
05:16I don't, I don't know.
05:17I just look at it.
05:18Dan, you got, didn't you, weren't you hearing some rumors or something or hypotheticals or
05:25let's call this a thought exercise.
05:27Okay, here we go.
05:29So someone sent me this.
05:30Okay.
05:31We'll not say who trustworthy.
05:33Yes.
05:34Okay.
05:36Miles Garrett to the Eagles.
05:39For AJ Brown, Jalen Carter, and a 27 first round pick.
05:44Hey, I got it right.
05:45You know, I don't, I don't see these things.
05:47Okay.
05:47AJ Brown, AJ Brown.
05:49Okay.
05:49I like that.
05:50I pass on him.
05:51Jalen Carter.
05:52If he could get his, if he can get it.
05:54And a 27 first round pick.
05:56The Eagles 27 first round pick.
05:58So that'd give you two in the draft where you want your quarterback.
06:00This is your hypothetical or somebody else's?
06:02Someone sent this to me.
06:03Oh, okay.
06:04And it really made me think.
06:06Hmm.
06:08Your thoughts?
06:08You making that move?
06:11General manager Baskin?
06:15Um, I don't know.
06:16I'm the kind of guy that thinks that even though things maybe have gone sideways for someone
06:19at one team, they might go the right way here.
06:23Um, it'd be hard.
06:27It'd be hard to say no.
06:28Yeah, it would.
06:28I, I think I would prefer to hang on to miles and ride it out.
06:32I, I, I, he, especially coming off the season he just had and you're getting, and you get
06:37the Eagles first round pick next year, not this year hypothetical trait, which I in the
06:42twenties, I would feel better if you got those two players and their first there this year
06:49and next year.
06:51Or give me your second next year.
06:53I guess you're getting Jalen Carter.
06:55I mean, Jalen Carter's 25.
06:56He's on a rookie contract.
06:57He's pretty darn good.
06:58Yeah, he is.
06:58Now between his ears is a little bit of a question, but skill and talent level.
07:04Good gravy.
07:05You got something special there.
07:07I think I would do it if I could make it a three-way deal where I reroute AJ Brown
07:13to
07:13the Patriots and get back either another first or a second, because that's the part of it
07:19that holds me up.
07:20I, how about some tabloid pictures to be named later too?
07:22AJ Brown scares the snot out of me.
07:25I do not want AJ Brown.
07:26No, I don't think they're, yeah.
07:27I just think if he's, he doesn't think he's getting the ball enough in Philly.
07:33Yeah.
07:34I think he's going to see it more.
07:35With the Superbowl ring.
07:36Yeah.
07:37Yeah.
07:40Makes for good talk.
07:41Oh yeah.
07:42That's what makes all this stuff fun.
07:44I think if I could reroute AJ Brown, I would do that move.
07:48What are you getting then?
07:49Another first run pick?
07:51First or second?
07:52One of the two?
07:53Because I know the Patriots are interested.
07:56I don't want to hand AJ Brown his next contract.
08:01I hate paying for was.
08:02I hate paying for was.
08:04It is very hard not to look at a wide receiver that like, you're guaranteed, you're guaranteed
08:10a thousand yards.
08:11Yeah.
08:11He'll help you.
08:11Although there's a whole lot of other baggage that comes with it.
08:14Yeah.
08:15Let's just say, I'm just doing the quick math.
08:18Let's just, 14.
08:19I mean, I really don't want to do this as bad.
08:24I'm going to do it anyway.
08:27You're going to do the last Browns wide receiver to catch a thousand yards?
08:30I'm just doing a little.
08:32Mark Cooper.
08:33That's what I was going to say.
08:33It's Mark Cooper.
08:34I'll take that.
08:34It's not that.
08:35No.
08:38I've just got to double check one thing.
08:41Speaking of Cooper, nobody talks about that Omar Cooper from Indiana who I like a lot.
08:44No, he can play.
08:44I like watching him play.
08:45He's the guy I've been seeing show up a whole bunch of different places, Tom.
08:47You're onto something with that.
08:48Yeah.
08:51Take him at 24.
08:52I could get behind that.
08:53The other one, Chris Bell from Louisville, intrigues me.
08:57Is that right?
08:58I feel like it's just.
08:59Is he a slot guy?
09:00Is he more of a.
09:00Big dude.
09:01Oh, big guy.
09:02He's like 6'4".
09:02Ah, okay.
09:03Yeah.
09:04He's kind of one of those guys that needs seasoning.
09:06He needs to go to somewhere where a wide receiver coach is going to work for him for a good
09:10period of time, but there might be something there.
09:11You think they're in love with Carnell Tate enough just to make the pick at six?
09:14And we're done.
09:16I actually think.
09:17I'm kind of.
09:18If you go back and think about.
09:19If you think about everything he said yesterday, he probably alluded to it at one point what
09:25they really want to do, and they'll do it.
09:27I just think it's needle in a haystack every time he does that press conference.
09:31Yeah.
09:31And you'll go back and you'll be like, I didn't even think about it when he said that.
09:36Because I didn't think it was that big a deal.
09:38About Tate?
09:39About anybody.
09:40Like, I really think a tackle is a tackle.
09:43I don't know that that's made for us to hear.
09:45I think he's saying that for another general manager to listen.
09:49I think a lot of the things he says.
09:51I think you're right.
09:52Are for not, have nothing to do with us.
09:55Gives him a platform to make somebody believe that they're going to do something that they're
09:59not.
09:59There are just too many head games involved in that.
10:01But, and I, why do I feel that way?
10:05Because they're the Browns.
10:06Yeah.
10:07Masters of misdirection when it comes to the draft, right?
10:11It's felt that way.
10:12And to your point, you know, when you asked Renner before, yeah, yeah, he did hit a home
10:16run last year with the draft because he finally had some assets to use.
10:20He finally had a chance to show what he could do, which I thought was.
10:24I still think Paul DePodesta had a lot to do with last year's draft.
10:27I don't know why they wouldn't have.
10:30Unless for some reason, Paul, I told them before the draft, he's like, guys, I'm bagging
10:34out.
10:35I'm going to go to, I'm going back to Colorado and here's the opportunity.
10:39I just want to make sure you guys know, I really, you know, as thought partners, this
10:42has been a great relationship and I really enjoyed our time, but my attorney will be
10:47here with the divorce papers a little later.
10:52I just want to give you a heads up before he gets here, just so you don't feel like you
10:55got served, right?
10:56I'm on my way out.
10:58Do you think?
10:59I don't know.
11:00I don't know.
11:00But listen, I don't know.
11:02I don't think Barry needs, by the way, everybody's talking about, oh, he's got to do it again.
11:06I don't think you have to have as good a draft as you had last year.
11:09It's a very important draft.
11:10But again, I get, I go back to what is the, what is the ultimate goal here in 2026?
11:16Is it just to get things ready as we get new toward a new stadium or is it to win
11:19games?
11:20If it's to get things ready, guys, if it's to get things ready, then you probably should
11:26trade Miles Garrett.
11:27There it is.
11:28And I, it's just, it's, it's going to be hard to sell tickets though, if you do that.
11:33Yeah, it is.
11:33Are you willing to, I mean, it's a, it's a slow burn.
11:36Ah, 216-474-0092.
11:39I wish I didn't think that, but if you're looking to the future, then the time now.
