00:00You had more reporting on this over the weekend. I'll give credit to Chad
00:04craft graph
00:06He had the first report late last week that the Patriots could be in on Garrett Bradbury
00:11The Center for the Vikings they went out and signed Ryan Kelly to replace him. He's about to get released
00:17It sounds like Mike Reese had a detail about Bradbury over the weekend. So maybe they're they're shoving Andrews out the door
00:24Because he's dragging his feet on retiring or whatever and
00:27So they're shoving him out the door because they don't want to miss out on on getting Bradbury
00:32I mean
00:32Maybe the whole thing is still on even a few days after the fact thinking about it reacting to it and Bedard was one who was
00:38Perplexed as well. Yeah, I don't really understand it
00:41I don't know if it's if they just don't think you can come back from the injury
00:44You know, you only played four games last year and even said there he's like
00:48I don't think anybody's rushing to sign David and so like clearly he's not
00:52Anywhere close to playing it doesn't sound so maybe that's what it is
00:55It just feels odd like for a team that has so many needs why create one?
00:59And so that's what they did
01:00That was one guy and sure at his age and coming off the injury you sort of pencil his name in you weren't gonna like
01:06You know write it in an ink
01:07But you're like already had two linemen that you felt halfway decent about and then you remove one of them
01:12who happens to be like you're only tied to like the winning teams around here and
01:17A captain from many many years and you're like no we're moving on from him
01:21It's like okay, just seems it did seem odd strange one other thing. That's percolating
01:25I saw the twitch chat comment on this you brought this up to me off the air as well new rumors about Joe Milton
01:31Yeah, how about that? One of the reporters for the Cleveland Browns?
01:35So this is like a two degrees away from like what the report is
01:38But the Browns I guess are sniffing around they certainly need a quarterback and it
01:44Appears though the asking price by the Patriots might be a third-round pick for Joe Milton to which the reporter says
01:51Cleveland is out like I'm at that price Cleveland's like we're not doing it
01:55But is that a fair asking price for Joe?
01:57But if you're the Patriots and teams call you for Joe Milton, you're like third-round pick
02:01So I've said this before I wouldn't move him for a day three pick now
02:04We got into a little bit of a gray area when current suggested
02:06Would you swap Joe Milton who the Raiders need less now after their Geno Smith trade, but would you swap Joe Milton for Jacobi Myers?
02:13I was like, yeah, I'd do that
02:14But largely I've said I want a day to pick for Milton and if I'm asking too much well, then so be it
02:19I'm fine with working with him and he's a backup or even third on the depth chart behind May and Dobbs
02:25I think it's fair for the Patriots to ask a third
02:27I don't know if they're gonna get it, but that's what I would want
02:29I wouldn't want a fourth or fifth round pick for him. I'd want to keep working with him
02:32Yeah, I think there is value there the the Dobbs signing though kind of threw me off a little bit being like, all right
02:38Are you comfortable having May and Milton as the only two quarterbacks on the team? Clearly? No, no
02:43You're bringing in Dobbs
02:44I mean we saw Milton play one game against a bunch of backups and it got everybody kind of all excited about it
02:49Couldn't be as simple as we want to keep developing Milton. We think there's potential there
02:52Yeah, but if we need to win a game or two and Drake maze out Dobbs
02:57Puts us in a better position to do that. We think today we'll see by the end of training camp and everything
03:01But today that's what we think
03:02So I think if it's a third round pick you have to do it
03:04But I don't think anybody would do it for a third round pick
03:06He was just available to everybody last year and Cleveland definitely want to live or down Tony grossy
03:10Plus they have a really high third round pick, you know fourth round pick
03:13I think I would be listening after that. You're like what's really the value here in return?
03:17And there's a lot more player for pick trades in the NFL than there is player for player or to play
03:23You know what? I mean? If it's one of those that's where it's a little bit different, you know
03:27So say you're making a deal for a wide receiver whether it's be Jacobi Myers or somebody else and they're like hey
03:33Instead of sending us two picks give us one pick in Milton like then that kind of confuses the math a little bit and then
03:38I'd be okay with that because you're like, oh you're getting the right way, right?
03:41so whatever team that is if they need it, you know people have speculated about like Chris Olave from the Saints and
03:47If for some reason it's Joe Milton and a late-round pick for a lobby then like okay fine
03:51Like I'll do that. But yeah. Yeah, I don't see the I'm not like, oh
03:55I can't wait to see who they get in the fifth round this year
03:58And that might be a better more useful roster spot than Joe Milton like I'll take the upside Joe Milton
04:03So he's yeah, and you know, I also hope he never plays so that's interesting. I like that. They're asking for a third
04:09They probably won't get one. Yeah, but then fine then just keep working with Joe Milton who showed something last year
04:13I thought not people just say it was against the Bills. It wasn't just against the Bills
04:18I thought he was better than I expected in the preseason to now. These aren't full-blown NFL games
04:23It's literally the preseason and a glorified preseason game in week 18 the 17th week of the year against Buffalo's backups
04:31But I think he's looked good and I'd want to keep working with him and I think they're good to be asking for a third
04:35Round pick doesn't mean they're gonna get it
04:37But that's that's what I would want if it's a fourth or a fifth rounder
04:40I'd rather keep working so the Seahawks asked for a first and a third for DK Metcalf and then got a second, right?
04:45So are they asking for a third to get a fourth? Yeah, I wonder like what would they actually accept?
04:49That's they're throwing that out there would be disappointed in that if they thought I they got a fourth
04:53I'd be disappointed and you're like, why not? Just keep them. Yeah, you're right. There might just be more value
04:56That's how I feel about it. So you can jump in on this 6 1 7 7 7 9 7 93 7 you brought up the name Chris
05:02Olave. Yeah, let's lump in Olave with Iuke George Pickens
05:07Like some of these other net T Higgins is now gone Cooper Cup is now gone DK Metcalf has been gone
05:12These are names that maybe if you're a glass-half-full Patriots fan, you're like, well, this guy's still out there
05:19and that guy's still out there those guys are
05:22Olave who's had massive concussion issues in New Orleans talented player, but that'd be a roll of the dice
05:28George Pickens were projecting if he even is gonna ask his way out of Pittsburgh now the DK Metcalf is there
05:33I'd be interested in him. Iuke is coming off an ACL injury
05:37He's do a big bonus in early April that maybe the Niners don't want to pay. So that's some of the logic
05:41I just think even if any of those guys shake free. I don't like the Patriots chances of landing any of them
05:47They've they've been in on one wide receiver best. I can tell this offseason
05:49They just missed and it was Chris Godwin. So we did ours
05:53our top five
05:55Wide receiver targets. Yep back on February 19th. Okay, my five were yep
06:01Devontae Adams didn't get Cooper Cup didn't get him Chris Godwin didn't get DK Metcalf didn't get him T Higgins
06:07Didn't get him so for five. Yep Jones had DK Metcalf didn't get him Devontae Adams didn't get a Cooper Cup
06:13Didn't get him Devo Samuel. Nope Luther Burton the third available
06:17Gotta go through the draft one of our ten receivers if you will
06:20There's some overlap there one of some overlap
06:21But one of our receiver targets and it's a rookie which the Patriots been great at drafting wide receivers
06:26Not just under bill, but in their history is Tom Curran underscored a few weeks back
06:30They can't draft receivers predating bill after bill. They can't draft receivers. But okay, that's the one that's left
06:35Yeah, it's it's time get him yet
06:37So now I guess you do have to turn to that, you know, who's gonna spring free from Brendan a you George Pickens
06:44I mean lump Myers in there, too
06:46If you want, yeah, Jacoby Myers Jacoby Myers seems like maybe the most likely he's also
06:51the lowest
06:53Upside of all those guys by far. It's got a pretty high floor like, you know what he is
06:57But I was not like a game changer
06:59I'll be consistent if I'm gonna if I'm gonna credit Calvin Ridley for getting a thousand yards last year and everybody dumps all over him
07:04Myers was a thousand yard receiver. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so Myers to me is an NFL to he'd be your one
07:09But he's a he's a solid number two receiver
07:12But finally it'd be somebody that Drake may could be excited about because I'll do respect
07:15I'm sure he'll say great things about Matt Collins who also went to North Carolina
07:18And I'm sure you'll say nice things about Morgan Moses who came across really well
07:22I thought it is press conference, but there's nobody that Drake may sit around be like, oh look what we did in free agency
07:27Whereas if you're playing defense or if you're the D coordinator Terrell Williams, you're like, oh my god
07:32Look at all these guys. We just got we have a st
07:35Paddy's themed key for madness coming your way very rare on a Monday coming your way
07:40Call it less than 10 minutes. It's a big day though. So we had to do it in the meantime
07:43Let's knock out some phone calls. Jason's in the car waiting patiently. What's up, Jason?
07:48Hey guys, thanks for taking my call
07:51I'm very optimistic about the Patriots. I think we're actually gonna win the division
07:56The white I am so sick of hearing about a wide receiver. This has been going on since before we got Randy Moss
08:02I'm gonna tell everybody check out cold hard football facts
08:07There's a guy on there Kerry Byrne he talks about the importance of the wide receiver position
08:13It's no more. It's the shiny hood ornament. Okay. Well Jason, we've already gotten a call on this earlier today
08:19So I completely disagree some of the recent champions and we already detailed these AJ Brown won with the Eagles last year and had been
08:26to an additional Super Bowl
08:28you know the Niners went to Super Bowls with
08:30Debo and Iuk if you want to stick with that other teams that won Cooper Cup one as a wide receiver triple crown winner best
08:35Season ever for a wide receiver you brought up Mike Evans was a top 10 pick in the draft
08:40I think he's a 7th pick overall
08:41Top 10 pick in the NFL draft 7,000 yards every year of his career won a Super Bowl
08:45Everybody tells me Travis Kelsey's a receiver not a tight end, right? So do I use that here?
08:49Good point that here great point key
08:52Patriots fans Travis Kelsey is not a tight end, right? No, but then the other he's a wide receiver
08:56The Chiefs continuously when which great point the games also changed and I mean there was a time where Jerry Rice and Michael Irvin were
09:03Winning there was a time in between there that it wasn't as important. It has flipped now
09:06It is incredibly important. And if you want to give me examples of Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes, then okay
09:12Let's just wait and get the next Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes
09:15Then you then you then you don't need the stud receivers, even though those guys did have good receivers
09:18Who's the best left tackle in football?
09:20Hmm, who's the best left tackle in football Orlando pace?
09:24So like I mean who even is it right now? Uh, honestly Trent Williams. Okay, as Charlie as Trent Williams one
09:31No, no, so it's got shine just a shiny hood ornament
09:34I guess is what that is Ronnie Stanley everybody really wanted Ronnie Stan must have won a lot of see one
09:39No, okay
09:40So like I mean I can play that game with pretty much every position not named quarterback
09:43Okay, if you want to do that, well, what what was the top left tackle one?
09:47Trump Williams is the top left tackle Ronnie Stanley somewhere high up there
09:50The wide receivers are one more than those guys lately that guy also kind of soft snitched on himself for having bad takes when he
09:55Led with Pat's are gonna win the division. So what Josh Allen quit football? Good point
10:00He got married quit got his big contract quit. Who's the Eagles left at my point is my point
10:10I mean, so is he the best left tackle football? I don't think so. He just won. He's good
10:13Is he the best one in football six one seven seven seven nine seven ninety three seven
10:17You can jump in here on Jones and Keith will circle back to the Sox more thoughts on the Patriots their draft free agency
10:23Which is done by the way, it's over. You can talk yourself into there's more names out there
10:26They're pretty much all snapped up. Everybody anybody wanted is gone
