1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Ross, I didn't catch part of your NFL we one.

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,400
Did you officially have the Devanta Adams been cut by

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:05,879
the Jets?

4
00:00:06,839 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 2: I did not.

5
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,039
Speaker 1: Okay, that came down within the last half hour.

6
00:00:10,519 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, we talked about it earlier about him going

7
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:14,560
to be cut. It's official now.

8
00:00:14,759 --> 00:00:18,359
Speaker 1: It's official now. So I'm sure all the Texan fan

9
00:00:18,399 --> 00:00:20,800
bloggers that were like, what's go get, let's go get

10
00:00:20,839 --> 00:00:26,199
Devanta and cousin discussing if you want to, I'm just

11
00:00:26,839 --> 00:00:28,640
you know what, if you're gonna go get somebody, just

12
00:00:28,679 --> 00:00:33,920
go just re sign Stefan Diggs one year deal, heavy

13
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,280
incentives as long as he's reasonable on his guarantee for

14
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:41,039
the year. That you know what you got. I mean,

15
00:00:41,119 --> 00:00:43,159
DeVante's been bouncing around from team to team to team

16
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,240
the last or four years. He's fifty percent of the

17
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:46,640
player he was two or three years ago.

18
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 2: Eleven games the Jets, eight hundred and fifty yards, seven touchdowns.

19
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: DeVante Adams at twenty million dollars a year or Stefan

20
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,040
Digs at twelve million dollars a year.

21
00:01:04,159 --> 00:01:08,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't get any DeVante Adams of business.

22
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,439
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think that's in if that's

23
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:16,159
in the DNA of Casario, because remember when you when

24
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,879
the trade was made for Stefan Digs, he was still

25
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,040
at a very high elite level. I mean, he had

26
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,040
a little regression in his last year in Buffalo, but

27
00:01:24,079 --> 00:01:26,439
it wasn't like he would fallen off the map. Now,

28
00:01:26,519 --> 00:01:29,920
granted this injury he has now made have obviously taken

29
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:31,640
some wear and tear off of his trade off the

30
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:37,159
tires air a little bit. But I just DeVante's moved

31
00:01:37,159 --> 00:01:39,959
a bunch of the last handful of years and he's

32
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,840
just gonna cost a lot of money. Do you think

33
00:01:42,879 --> 00:01:46,640
wide receivers ross don't know their value like overestimate their

34
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,200
value more than any other position in sports?

35
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:56,439
Speaker 2: Hmmm, uh, No, Quarterbacks would.

36
00:01:56,359 --> 00:01:58,719
Speaker 1: Have to do it because quarterbacks we already kind of

37
00:01:58,719 --> 00:02:01,079
know what quarterbacks are getting because the crazy even for

38
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,640
mid quarterbacks are getting crazy money. We know that they're

39
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:04,079
getting it.

40
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say, I mean they're probably fourth right

41
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,599
highest paid would be quarterbacks, then probably tackles and ed

42
00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:14,719
rushers in whatever order, and then probably receivers. They're getting paid.

43
00:02:14,599 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: A lot, but they have the kind of like the

44
00:02:17,319 --> 00:02:20,800
same shelf life of running backs. Although the difference is

45
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,840
at least the wide receivers get paid big time money

46
00:02:22,879 --> 00:02:24,400
as compared to the running backs who don't.

47
00:02:25,039 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: And I think it's I think it's a more valuable

48
00:02:29,039 --> 00:02:32,719
position than then running back is these days, like a

49
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:38,360
dynamic number one wide receiver is harder to find than

50
00:02:38,439 --> 00:02:40,080
a than a number one running back.

51
00:02:40,759 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: That's why the Texans were wise to settle up with

52
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,120
the Nico Collins this past offseason. That was huge.

53
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 2: They bet on he. He took the money and the

54
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:51,919
Texans bet that he would out perform it, and he

55
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:52,520
did and has.

56
00:02:52,719 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, that was a good move by them for sure.

57
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 2: Great job, Nick Cassario, Good job overall, Glizard. That's great jobs.

58
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,400
That's like the one of the best wide receiver contracts

59
00:03:02,439 --> 00:03:03,000
in football.

60
00:03:03,159 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: All right, then I'll talked about it talking about his

61
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,280
negotiats with offensive lineman. Tell me how that's gone.

62
00:03:07,479 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 2: What do you mean?

63
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,039
Speaker 1: Overpaid? Guys up there?

64
00:03:11,599 --> 00:03:13,199
Speaker 2: Who Laramie Tunzel the Pro bowler?

65
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: Overpaid? Okay, his insatiable thirst for mid level first round

66
00:03:20,159 --> 00:03:23,000
picks again moved up in the draft that played in college.

67
00:03:24,439 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 2: The draft the draft history has been spotty.

68
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I think he's been a good general manager,

69
00:03:29,759 --> 00:03:33,400
and I don't think he's been elite, but he's top

70
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,520
half of the league. I don't think he's embarrassing himself.

71
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,560
He didn't let a player go for you know, he

72
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,719
didn't pull the DeAndre Hopkins straight. I mean, I think

73
00:03:41,759 --> 00:03:43,639
he's got He has a firm grasp of what the

74
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,719
market is. I think the biggest issue for Cassario as

75
00:03:46,719 --> 00:03:49,919
a general manager is is maybe perhaps talent evaluation. And

76
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,759
that's not necessarily him per se, although he's got, he

77
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,840
is He's the one that has to make the pick.

78
00:03:55,199 --> 00:03:58,120
It might be the people underneath him, but I think

79
00:03:58,159 --> 00:04:00,960
his I wasn't a huge which fan of the Stefan

80
00:04:01,039 --> 00:04:04,560
Diggs renegotiation and chopping the last couple of years off

81
00:04:04,599 --> 00:04:07,719
the contract, especially for what you gave up, But as

82
00:04:07,719 --> 00:04:09,439
you brought up up many times, it was about a

83
00:04:09,719 --> 00:04:11,719
let's go win the whole damn thing next year or

84
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,120
last year, which is now this year.

85
00:04:14,159 --> 00:04:18,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, they tried, didn't work, you know. Kamari last year

86
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:19,480
was a good pick.

87
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: Cabari was good.

88
00:04:20,879 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 2: Derek Stingley's been a great pick, had a better season

89
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:24,360
than Sauce Gardner.

90
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:26,519
Speaker 1: I was still taken Sauce and I'm on the record

91
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,720
for that, and I'm winning on that. But but it's

92
00:04:28,759 --> 00:04:33,199
not like Stingley's performing literally first team All Pro. Yeah,

93
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,680
it's fine, it's pretty good, pretty good, But there was

94
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,279
a there was a better player two years ago, the

95
00:04:38,399 --> 00:04:40,360
year before that. And why I'm talking about mac Bron'm

96
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:40,839
talking about I.

97
00:04:40,879 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 2: Don't know why you're doing that.

98
00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: We do this every time. But it's fine.

99
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 2: Will Anderson good picks. He's just really good pick.

100
00:04:46,759 --> 00:04:49,519
Speaker 1: Yep. Jalen Petree good, not great.

101
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 2: I would say really good pick. Where was he taken

102
00:04:52,079 --> 00:04:52,959
second or third round?

103
00:04:54,079 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: Can't talk, can't tackle in space? Better than he's great?

104
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,759
Speaker 2: He can tackle? What do you mean that's what he's

105
00:04:58,800 --> 00:04:59,079
good at.

106
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: He's not a coverage I I was mixing him up

107
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:08,560
miss each other safeties. Yeah, Peacher's okay.

108
00:05:09,399 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 2: Teachers really good. He's a plus player. They missed him

109
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:13,120
big time.

110
00:05:15,439 --> 00:05:18,439
Speaker 1: A has been okay as long as he behaves.

111
00:05:19,519 --> 00:05:23,199
Speaker 2: When he's not getting suspended for for trucks sticking. Trevor

112
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:28,279
Lawrence yep, No, I think that that.

113
00:05:29,519 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: In terms of security, I think the coaches very secure

114
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,079
in his spot. The general manager is very secure in

115
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,839
his spot. And there's very few teams in the NFL

116
00:05:36,879 --> 00:05:40,439
that can have that. I mean, who has that right now?

117
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,800
Kansas City with their with their situation.

118
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 2: He's probably doing pretty good right now.

119
00:05:45,879 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: Although Philadelphia had to fire pair of cordeners last year

120
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,000
to you know, to to make the well, you're winning

121
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,240
a super Bowl buys you some time. It does buy

122
00:05:53,319 --> 00:05:56,199
you some time. Who else is really super secure? I mean,

123
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,399
who are the elite? I mean Giants know, Bears, No,

124
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,399
they just made a change. Cowboys just made a change.

125
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 2: No, Jerry Jones is the most secure guy in football.

126
00:06:07,639 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: I'm talking about I'm talking about the head coach GM Combos.

127
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 2: Now, he'll be there, Jerry Jones will be there as

128
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:13,639
long as he wants
