00:00i'm gonna take you to tampa bay my old stomping grounds there baker mayfield was offered a two
00:05year contract extension he sent it back with his agent saying yeah no that's not it and here's a
00:11guy that has been on himself before george i mean is he going to be a free agent at the
00:16end of this
00:17year do you think the buck somehow gets something done here i mean uh i think he put it perfectly
00:23in the press conference afterwards right don't cry for me all right uh you know he's making 27
00:27million i'm making plenty of money here but nfl quarterback wise yeah he got slapped in the face
00:33he did all right that's just and i don't think he's not one of the best quarterbacks right probably
00:37outside the top 10 but he's an nfl starting quarterback and they get paid tampa bay what
00:41are you gonna do without him i mean what are you gonna do all right you lost mike evans already
00:45vita vey wants to get the hell out of there right you got problems with him so all your pr
00:49is just
00:50terrible just awful here so uh listen they they could go with that uh you know direction there
00:56and franchise him next year which they probably i don't so i don't think he's going anywhere i don't
01:00see that happening and they actually think a franchise next two years i think the numbers i
01:03heard were high 40s next year mid 50s the year after so theoretically you could pay him you know
01:08130 million dollars over the next three years it's all guaranteed so once again not crying for baker
01:12mayfield but is he making true quarterback one starter money no so as far as that's concerned i see his
01:19point and it's it's not a good look for tampa bay because baker probably has earned it got hurt last
01:24year
01:24maybe they want to prove it this year all right but the problem is i'm the cowboy fan jerry jones
01:28never learns this lesson the price only gets higher it's not going down all right if you if you if
01:36you're
01:36thinking you know maybe we should sign bake a long term then do it you'll save money in a long
01:40term
01:40if you're waiting for him he has a good year you're only going to pay through the nose it doesn't
01:43make
01:44any sense i call it the jerry jones tax if you wait too long that's the jerry jones tax like
01:51he always does
01:52because jerry ends up paying that tax here um let me take you to vegas here and what they're doing
01:57there with clint kubiak and with fernando mendoza they're gonna start you know kirk cousins they're at
02:04the starting quarterback good move to get him acclimated to the game you think that's a good way
02:09to go with him or would you see to me george i want to know what i have immediately and
02:14i know that
02:15the raiders don't have a very good roster but i want to know what i have now and i want
02:21to see
02:21what i have are you in the camp of let's see what he and let's see him matriculate his game
02:26in let's
02:27see how he can handle the national football league do you think this is the right play here
02:33without us actually being there in camp all right uh my philosophy has always been this as soon as you
02:39think mendoza's ready and you're not going to set him back he's in there you already said the raiders
02:44aren't going to be a good team well and once again you're the worst team in that division
02:47charges raiders broncos uh charges chiefs broncos i'm sorry you have no chance all right so as soon
02:53as you think he's ready this is a throwaway year right the idea is you don't want next year to
02:57be
02:57a throwaway year as well all right so you get him over the rookie blues at some point i've been
03:01looking
03:02at the schedule for the raiders like when's the perfect opportunity it's not the bye week that's
03:05after week 12 that's too late he's got to play more than five games uh and their schedule i mean
03:10you
03:10got charges week two kansas city week four new england five buffalo six ram seven boy you really
03:17don't want to put them in there either so is it really week eight in new york i know it's
03:22the jets
03:22but it's still week eight in new york and you got san fran on the road the next week that's
03:27not great
03:27either in seattle never the bottom line is this there's no perfect time so once again i go back to
03:31this if he's ready week one he plays week one if it's week four he plays week four if it's
03:36halloween
03:36he plays halloween but in my mind he has to play at least eight to ten games this season i
03:42want the
03:42rookie blues done this season and then we work next year and i don't care if i go three and
03:4714 i'll take
03:48another number one number two number three pick you know you got it you're building up for the future
03:51anyway this year is all about getting mendoza over that home
