00:00Aside from that, what is his value to the defense?
00:03And we've heard the team say they want him, they love him,
00:07they want him here, they want to pay him,
00:08and we obviously heard what Robert Kraft said,
00:10but I still kind of doubt them sometimes
00:14when they talk about how much they want him,
00:15and I'm curious how much they value what he contributes to this defense.
00:21I think you should value him a lot for a couple different reasons.
00:24One, I think the strength of that defense is the secondary.
00:28You know, I don't think, you know,
00:31yeah, you have Milton Williams and Barmore and Durden inside,
00:34and you're like, all right, we feel pretty good about that,
00:36but they're also, you know, it's not like Milton Williams is Aaron Dottle.
00:39Like, he is a great player worth every penny they gave for him,
00:43but, you know, you're not sitting there thinking
00:46he's going to have 16 to 20 sacks a year.
00:49You know, and you don't have that premier edge guy,
00:53so I think they're going to win on defense, on cover sacks,
00:56and getting pressure and relying on that stuff,
00:58but when you blitz, it also puts pressure on your back end.
01:02You have one less guy in coverage,
01:04and so to me, Christian is a guy that eliminates part of the field.
