00:00Good morning, 97.1.
00:05Dan Campbell's going to join us at 8.02.
00:07It's trade deadline day in the NFL.
00:09Got a list of 10 names to consider for the Lions.
00:14And we want to know, what's the move that would knock your socks off today?
00:17That is, if you are allowing yourself to get excited.
00:20I have shared the dread I feel.
00:23We also have texts that want to jump in on the two grand slam.
00:26Darren was so disappointed in himself.
00:28He's probably already in training for the next two grand slam.
00:32He did sound pretty disappointed.
00:34Seven, 175 bucks.
00:38Yeah, if I could just remember Lucas Raymond's name is tipping my tongue.
00:42Now I picture him like Rocky, Rocky IV.
00:44He's like training in the mountains of Siberia.
00:47He's all alone.
00:49Get him next time.
00:52Cincy is the third largest city in Ohio, but it probably was the second when they adopted the name.
00:56And a bunch of people saying, yes, they've heard of Charlotte being the queen city, including someone who says they
01:01fly into Charlotte.
01:02And there's a sign that says, welcome to the queen city.
01:06Oh.
01:07Didn't matter.
01:08He didn't get it either.
01:08No.
01:09Someone claims that Marquette, Michigan is the queen city.
01:12Huh.
01:13I've never heard that branding.
01:15I have not heard that either.
01:16Great place.
01:18Yeah.
01:19Anyway, there we go.
01:21Not as much complaining about the banker this week.
01:25People felt it was a reasonable.
01:27A reasonable two grand slam.
01:30Well, if that was the lone question that got missed, though, it would have been a catastrophe.
01:34So thank God for that.
01:35Baker says.
01:37All right.
01:37I want to throw these names out there, John, and we can touch on them.
01:40Just give me a thumbs up, thumbs down, and then we'll dive deeper into the guys that get a thumbs
01:43up from you.
01:44OK?
01:44OK.
01:45The number one name.
01:45This is put together by the free press.
01:47Dave Burkett.
01:48You've heard of him.
01:49He's got these 10 names, and it begins with Reek Wollin, corner out of Philadelphia.
01:53Thumbs up.
01:54All right.
01:54We'll get back to him.
01:56Defensive back, Mikey Sainer still.
01:58Commanders.
01:58Can I do a middle thumb?
02:01Yeah.
02:01Middle thumb.
02:02OK.
02:04Is he advancing to the next round of consideration?
02:06We'll discuss.
02:07OK.
02:08Dante Jackson, corner chargers.
02:12Yeah.
02:13I would say thumbs up.
02:14OK.
02:15Nashawn Wright, cornered Jets, formerly of the Bears a year ago.
02:18I would say no.
02:20Thumbs down.
02:21Riley Moss, corner for the Denver Broncos.
02:25OK.
02:25That surprised me.
02:26Like, the Broncos are in the hunt.
02:27But yeah, I mean, thumbs up, but they're not going to be selling.
02:31OK.
02:32Only one more.
02:33So I'll go thumbs down.
02:34Thumbs down.
02:34One more defensive back.
02:35Amani Hooker, Tennessee Titans safety.
02:38Thumbs up.
02:39OK.
02:39Yeah.
02:40If you like him.
02:40We'll get back to him in a second.
02:42At the linebacker level, they have a few names, including Zach Bond of the Eagles.
02:45Thumbs up.
02:46OK.
02:48Henley from the Chargers.
02:49So we just got a phone call about.
02:50Yeah.
02:51I would go thumbs up.
02:52And Cody Barton of the Tennessee Titans.
02:54Hmm.
02:56I would say thumbs down.
02:57OK.
02:58And then there's Barron Browning, defensive end, Arizona Cardinals.
03:03No.
03:03No.
03:03OK.
03:04So let's zoom back in on the guys that you do like.
03:07Why Reek Wolin?
03:09Because I like the fact that he we don't have length at the corner position and he provides
03:14really good length.
03:15He's a man corner type of guy.
03:17We all know that that's what Calvin Shepard wants to play a majority of.
03:21And I don't think you're going to have to give up a lot to get him.
03:25Is he the best name on this list in your mind?
03:30Of the corners.
03:33Or is it Nashawn Wright?
03:35Is it Dante Jackson?
03:36I mean, you're splitting hairs when you're talking about these guys.
03:40I may prefer a Dante Jackson from the Chargers more than Reek Wolin.
03:45But Reek Wolin is the one that gives you the most length at that position.
03:49OK.
03:51What is the knock your socks off move?
03:55Not any of these games or any of these guys.
03:57I don't think any of these are going to knock your socks off unless you were to do what we
04:01have been discussing is combined Zach Bond and Reek Wolin.
04:04Now, that may be a knock your socks off, but I also don't think it's going to be a price
04:07that's going to knock your socks off.
04:09So, like, where do we where do we label the well?
04:13Yeah, this blew our doors off.
04:15I mean, that would blow my doors off if they went out and addressed just because you simply
04:19don't think that they'll be able to get to for a two for.
04:22Yeah.
04:23Look, it's a two for one special.
04:24And the idea of addressing the defense at multiple levels, good coverage players at
04:29multiple levels, too.
04:30Right.
04:30You know what Zach Bond offers this team in the middle and what Reek would give them
04:34length and the man coverage.
04:35And also, how about the mix and match component like DJ Reed?
04:38Got to get him healthy.
04:39Had been playing really good ball, but he's a smaller corner.
04:41So now you can kind of play the matchup based on who you're playing.
04:45Key situations.
04:46Do we need the length?
04:47Do we want to put Reed on a smaller receiver?
04:48You have some options when you craft your defense for your opponent that week.
04:53And no, I don't want to make Reek Wolin out to be like prime Darrell Rivas.
04:58This isn't like a right a true a race, a receiver guy, but guy was a pro bowler once
05:05upon a time was a Super Bowl champion a year ago.
05:08There there are tools.
05:09He's not a 32 year old corner.
05:11He's still in the prime of his career.
05:12There's something to work with for this Lions defense.
05:15Yeah, and I want to get back to the.
05:18The the mid thumb.
05:19Yeah, and that was with Mikey Sammer still from Washington.
05:23Obviously, he played for Michigan and it's kind of a mid thumb because the upside is
05:31there and what was it?
05:33I think he had about eight interceptions in the first couple of seasons since then.
05:38Nothing like in his playing time has basically diminished to almost nothing in the last five
05:45weeks.
05:46I'm curious as to why.
05:48Like where is the step back been for Mikey Sandra still and if you were to go get him,
05:54that's a six or a seventh round pick right that you're giving up.
05:59So you get a depth piece a guy that can play nickel and play corner and it would add depth,
06:05but it's not going to be anything substantial.
06:08That's that's that's that's going to the bargain bin.
06:12What about the two for with the Chargers?
06:14There's two Charger names on here.
06:16I'll be at less sizzle than a deal with the Eagles.
06:19Oh, sure.
06:20I like both of those guys.
06:21I think they're quality players.
06:23A linebacker in a corner.
06:24Yeah, and Lee and Jackson, but I think you're still looking at bargain type players.
06:30Could you get I'm not even could you do the two for two to first?
06:34That's what I'm saying.
06:35You're not going to do two separate.
06:36No, I know that.
06:37But I'm saying to the fans out there, could you get on board with that more because you
06:42feel like it's a quantity argument?
06:45I want to have guys at multiple positions, even if you didn't get maybe the quality that
06:50you were dreaming of.
06:52You'd be compromising.
06:55So so let's just put this in in in terms of guys that we're already talking about.
06:59Would would you rather Rick woolen as a standalone trade or the two for from San Diego?
07:11Probably the two for.
07:13I think you're upgrading more at the linebacker position than you are at corner in that in
07:18that trade.
07:19Yes, without ignoring corner, right?
07:21Yeah, some text porn in two four eight five three nine ninety seven ninety seven.
07:26Want to get some feedback from you guys.
07:28We'll do that next.
07:29It's ninety seven one.
