1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 1: Dan Graziano does five teams about contract extensions and just

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:06,719
picked I'm always doing five at a time, where he

3
00:00:06,799 --> 00:00:08,400
just happened to pick five. One of the five teams

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,839
he brought up was the Houston Texans. Okay, And the

5
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,119
two key extension candidates this year are, of course CJ.

6
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,039
Stroud and Will Anderson Junior. What do the little?

7
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:17,719
Speaker 2: What do the easy?

8
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 1: One?

9
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 2: First?

10
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: Will Anderson twelve sacks season, one of the best defensive

11
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,000
players in the NFL, He was a third pick in

12
00:00:25,039 --> 00:00:27,600
the twenty twenty three draft, Defensive Rookie of the Year,

13
00:00:27,679 --> 00:00:29,640
all this kind of stuff, and he has been everything

14
00:00:29,719 --> 00:00:33,280
as advertised. Now, Micah Parsons we talked about last week,

15
00:00:33,359 --> 00:00:35,280
ROSSI is at forty six and a half million dollars

16
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:39,560
a year. And then you have what Hutchinson for the

17
00:00:39,679 --> 00:00:43,479
Lions is what at forty five? What that's TJ not

18
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,479
JJ forty one million dollars a year. Then the Garrett

19
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,640
at forty million dollars. Okay, So it sounds like to

20
00:00:50,679 --> 00:00:53,920
me that Will Anderson, according to Dan Graziano, believes that

21
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:59,200
Will's going to be in that forty million dollar club. Okay,

22
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,920
whether he gets to Micah Parsons level. They don't know, because,

23
00:01:03,039 --> 00:01:05,359
as you talked about a few days ago, that contract

24
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,000
just completely will put the whole past gal out of whack. Yeah,

25
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,920
but the anticipation is, according to Dan Graziano, that uh,

26
00:01:14,159 --> 00:01:17,560
the Anderson will sign a four year contract one hundred

27
00:01:17,599 --> 00:01:19,640
and seventy six million dollars with one hundred and twenty

28
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,400
one of that guaranteed in signing.

29
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,799
Speaker 2: Aiden Hutchinson was around? Was a four point eighty or

30
00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:25,719
one any five? I think?

31
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: Does it say that? Yeah, it doesn't say in this story. Okay,

32
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,760
all right, so four years, one seventy six? What is

33
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,000
that set's? Forty four year basically? Am I right about that?

34
00:01:36,359 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 2: For sure?

35
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 1: Three somewhere in that range. Okay, Now let's get to CJ.

36
00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:42,599
So yeah, that would be I think Hutchinson was forty five.

37
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,439
I don't think he's gonna want I don't think he's

38
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,560
gonna get worse than a Hutchinson deal. No, And look,

39
00:01:47,599 --> 00:01:50,400
the Texans have always taken care of their first rounders. Yeah,

40
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,040
and good second rounders too. I mean Petrie and Stingley

41
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,599
have been well well taken care of, and Nico Collins

42
00:01:56,599 --> 00:01:58,439
for that matter too. All Right, so we got now

43
00:01:58,439 --> 00:02:00,359
the Texans won, and there's a big story about what

44
00:02:00,359 --> 00:02:03,400
do you do about CJ? And how do you you know?

45
00:02:03,879 --> 00:02:05,599
Do you how much money do you want to spend

46
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,480
on him? And how much do you want to spend

47
00:02:07,599 --> 00:02:12,439
on a guy that had two horrific postseason games. So

48
00:02:12,599 --> 00:02:14,360
reading this story, and I don't need to tell you

49
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:15,840
about what is in there because it's all the stuff

50
00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:18,039
that you've seen over the course of the last month

51
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:23,360
or so. The prediction that Dan Graziano has four year

52
00:02:23,479 --> 00:02:28,599
contract for CJ. Stroud two hundred and twenty four million

53
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,719
dollars one hundred and ten million dollars guaranteed at simon

54
00:02:34,159 --> 00:02:37,719
this offseason, i'd presume, So I don't think you're talking

55
00:02:37,719 --> 00:02:43,879
about next season. Yeah, So the next two years, the

56
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,000
last two years of the rookie contract would be years

57
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,199
four and five. The total amount of money the Texans

58
00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:50,120
would be spending on c J. Strowd will be thirty

59
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,800
two million dollars. It's like just shi a six this

60
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:58,159
year and just over twenty six in year five.

61
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 2: So fifty eight. That's fifty eight a million, you know,

62
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,199
I'm sorry, No, fifty.

63
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:08,159
Speaker 1: Six if you're taking four about him by two twenty four, Yeah,

64
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,439
one hundred and ten million guaranteed at signing fifty six

65
00:03:11,479 --> 00:03:14,120
million a year, would be more than Trevor Lawrence Jordan.

66
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,520
It'd be more than everyone but Dak Prescott.

67
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 2: Correct. Now, here's the.

68
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: Question is is Dan Garziana doing this because he's a

69
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,400
legitimate NFL writer or is he trying to get into

70
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,759
the good graces of David Mulagatta.

71
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 2: I don't know that. I mean Nick Cassario is not

72
00:03:34,319 --> 00:03:36,520
reading this article, so I don't I don't think so,

73
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:38,680
I want to imagine.

74
00:03:38,719 --> 00:03:40,879
Speaker 1: I guarantee you he's reading the article. There's no way.

75
00:03:41,159 --> 00:03:43,360
Yeah you see this the PR departments, Oh there was

76
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,960
somebody send it to him. But it's not like, yeah

77
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,360
he's so it's not seeking.

78
00:03:46,439 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: That doesn't necessarily mean he's like, you know what, Dan

79
00:03:48,039 --> 00:03:52,599
Graziano's making some good points, right, but no he I

80
00:03:52,639 --> 00:03:54,400
guarantee you Nick, you see this morning when he got

81
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,000
to his desk and they have the clips of everything,

82
00:03:56,039 --> 00:03:58,120
that's the word textas evolved, has this story in front

83
00:03:58,159 --> 00:04:05,360
of him. So just I want you again, we don't

84
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,879
think about this money situation because we're not salary cap people.

85
00:04:07,879 --> 00:04:10,120
We're not the gentle manage to the team and Frankly,

86
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:11,879
when you win a Super Bowl, we don't care what

87
00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:13,360
we pay our players because we won.

88
00:04:13,319 --> 00:04:18,879
Speaker 1: A Super Bowl. But you're gonna put him in beyond

89
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,959
rarefied air for a guy who is looking to make

90
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:31,120
north of fifty five million dollars a year. Oh lord,

91
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:37,680
if he doesn't pan out ross, that doesn't annihilate your franchise,

92
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,040
but it hampers you badly.

93
00:04:41,079 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 2: Would be in I mean that's what let's think of

94
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,560
the ones that pay you would be in Arizona Cardinals territory. Yes,

95
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,360
New York Giants territory. Because they were talking about Kyler

96
00:04:50,439 --> 00:04:53,160
Murray Downey, Kyler Murray, Daniel Jones. I'm trying to think

97
00:04:53,199 --> 00:04:55,199
of who else got paid and it really didn't work

98
00:04:55,199 --> 00:04:55,959
out recently.

99
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 1: Well, I mean you could say this. I mean, Jacksonville

100
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,160
was really good last year, but the early portions of

101
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,199
the Trevor Lawrence money hasn't paid out for them.

102
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 2: That's true, but they got him a great play caller

103
00:05:05,879 --> 00:05:08,959
and a better offensive line and run game and weapons,

104
00:05:08,959 --> 00:05:12,079
and look what happened, and they still bounce in the

105
00:05:12,079 --> 00:05:14,920
first round. Yeah, but they they're still a much better

106
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,800
football team. And there's no yeah, there's no doubts about

107
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,000
Trevor Lawrence being a potential you know, at least their

108
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,480
franchise quarterback. He's not all time a leader or anything,

109
00:05:22,519 --> 00:05:26,040
but he's looking a lot better. Funny how that works.

110
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:32,920
So I'm just curious. When I gave you that number,

111
00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:36,439
did you cough like I did? Fifty six millionaire seems insane.
