00:00 your takeaways from kind of the highlights of what transpired this weekend and
00:04 what it means for the Broncos as we approach the new league year.
00:07 >> I feel like it's a continuance of Sean Payton putting his stamp on the team.
00:11 First was getting rid of Simmons and
00:12 then the Jerry Judy trade was the biggest transaction in my mind.
00:15 We've heard the rumors about who the Broncos are gonna go after a quarterback,
00:18 but they brought back some of their own guys like PJ Locke and Quinn Bailey.
00:21 But trading away Jerry Judy,
00:23 because Sean Payton wants to give Marvin Mims more playing time.
00:26 It's just his identity, him putting his stamp on the team and
00:30 kind of molding it in year two under his vision.
00:32 So that's encouraging to me.
00:34 >> Did they get what he was worth?
00:36 >> I think so and I might come off biased, but it was basically a salary dump.
00:40 Anything the Broncos would have got back, Chad, was the cherry on top.
00:43 You're trading away the salary for immediate cap relief and
00:46 you're also trading away a bad attitude.
00:48 This is a guy who needed another team, greener pastures, yada yada.
00:51 Maybe he'll find him in Cleveland, maybe not.
00:53 So just the fact the Broncos cleared $13 million is good enough, but
00:57 they got two middle round draft picks back, gives them more ammo to move up or
01:02 more ammo to just stay where they are and take more players at positions of need.
01:06 But it was more about sending a message to, like I mentioned earlier,
01:09 this is gonna be Marvin Mims as a starter next year.
01:11 This is what Sean Payton wants.
01:13 And in one year, Sean Payton shipped out Russell Wilson and Jerry Judy.
01:17 I find that pretty telling.
01:18 >> Even as I said that, did the Broncos get what he was worth?
01:23 I'm realizing the kind of obvious stupidity of the question because
01:28 whatever he sold for, that's what he's worth.
