00:00I think the two markets that have really been hot to this point just as far as discussions

00:04behind the scenes between teams are receiver and edge rusher and those are two areas where

00:10the Patriots do have a surplus. I'm not saying they have great players at those positions but

00:14they have numbers at those positions so they could offload a guy and not become non-functional at

00:19those spots and so that's where you see a Josh Uche where they already have Keon White and they

00:24have Dietrich Wise be a name that could create some heat. They could create some heat with Josh

00:37Uche. Interesting. That's one word for it. It's a healthy scratch yesterday. Mayo was asked about

00:43it today on the Greg Hill Show. He's like yeah no he's just doing what makes our team the best on

00:48the field getting his ass off of it. That's nonsense. So I mean they might be trying to

00:51trade him. You're trying to make sure he doesn't get hurt in a week or two weeks before. It

00:56certainly seems that way. And he's not like a huge ad either like oh he's out there you're great. In

01:00fact he seems to be a guy that is either missing tackles or out of position all the time. I feel

01:07like when Mayo was saying the team is soft it was about him. Not only but he might be the face of

01:14it. So the names that have come up. Reese wrote this over the weekend. It's Jones and Keefe here

01:17on WEI for the second year in a row. Past rusher Josh Uche is among the top Patriots players whose

01:25teams have inquired about at the NFL's trade deadline. By the way Twitch Chat was pointing

01:29this out earlier since we're talking about pronunciation. Did you notice how they were

01:32pronouncing booty yesterday? I think they were saying booty. I think they were like over pronouncing

01:38it and saying booty. Not bootay. I did enjoy the Boomer Esiason interview again this morning

01:44with Gerard Mayo. The whole time. It's such a difficult name. So I guess they get the booty

01:51name wrong. So I'm sorry Joshua Uche. Diana Rossini. I know you like her reporting. I would

01:57just go opposite. It's good to listen to and then just kind of go opposite. I've been told to keep

02:02an eye on the Patriots who will listen to any proposal with run stuffing interior defensive

02:07lineman Devon Godshell. He's a friend of the show. New England Patriots love Jared Spittle.

02:15Never started a game here. Never once. Some would argue he should have. I think he should have. But

02:20if they loved him so much maybe he would have. But he didn't. X-Niners wide receiver Kendrick

02:24Bourne also on her list. He did not have a great game. And then Ian Rappaport. Oh no terrible. He

02:29said it after the game. He's a stand up guy. And then Ian Rappaport just to close the loop on all

02:35the names floating around out there. Uche and K.J. Osborne. He says for the second consecutive

02:40year Uche's name is floating around on the trade market with a low base base salary 1.3 million

02:44only adding to his value. He has two sacks and limited time. Meanwhile Kendrick Bourne is the

02:49receiver who's garnered the most interest in trade rumors. It would take a large deal to

02:53pry him from New England. Seriously. No I was going to rounder for first round. Yeah I'm not

02:58trying to be like a comedian. Yeah. You name four guys. Kendrick Bourne. Kendrick Osborne.

03:03Josh Uche. And Devon Godchow. If you traded all four of them to the same team what would it cost.

03:10Like those guys aren't worth anything. Do you get a third for all four of them. No. Yeah maybe not.

03:16I would probably say in order it would be what you get the most forward be Godchow.

03:23Bourne. Uche. Osborne. Exactly. I would agree with that order. Yes. So DeAndre Hopkins just went for

03:28a fifth round pick. Seriously. DeAndre Hopkins. That's only one player. Okay. All right. So K.J.

03:34Osborne. On a torn maybe torn MCL. Yeah on a scale of you know there's only seven rounds in the draft.

03:40What is K.J. Osborne worth. Zero. Like zero. He's not playing on the worst receiving group in the

03:46league. How many snaps yesterday. I had Nick look. Nine. I think it was nine. He played nine snaps

03:50yesterday. Kendrick Bourne was dropping passes left and right. At least he's a pro. You don't

03:55have to worry. You bring him in. You have to worry about him. I think he can figure out your

03:58offense or maybe it's an offense similar to this or you know San Francisco. So like he might have

04:02some value. But if Hopkins goes for a fifth what on earth would you get for these guys. Godchow.

04:08Maybe for a team that's looking for like a like a big host to you know stop the run. Although he's

04:14coming from a team that can't stop the run at all. And Josh Uche. I know was it two years ago

04:18we had all those sacks. I never thought he was well much of anything. He was available to everybody

04:23paid for. He was a free agent and no one wanted him. So he came back here with nobody. None of

04:27those guys are worth anything. The question would be would the Patriots entertain like some pick

04:33swaps. But that's what wouldn't it be. Hey we'll give you Kendrick Oz K.J. Osborne and a seventh

04:40for your sixth. Yeah. That's the kind of trade. All you're doing is trading up. You're not even

04:44adding a pick. And I don't think anyone's saying yes. Nobody's. No because they should just cut

04:47Osborne to make room for more of the young guys. He says it would take a large deal to pry Bourne

04:51loose. That's right. He says a more likely trade possibility is Osborne who is on a one year deal

04:56and has quote unquote thrived elsewhere. What's the large deal for Kendrick Bourne. I think is

05:04just insulting. Yeah. No it is. What does that even mean. Multiple picks. So are they going to

05:09be any more or less active based on yesterday's win. I doubt it. Those are the names that are

05:12available that you can come get. What should the Patriots do before the trade deadline. You could

05:16jump in here on Jones and Keefe. Our pal Johnny is in Brooklyn. Go ahead Johnny.

05:20What's up guys. You don't think Thornton could get him a good pick.

05:26I mean Thornton had the worst drop yesterday. I want to be fair. He did have a big third down

05:29conversion but that drop was so bad. It was so bad. There was nobody. Well that's

05:35so the reason for my call. You know the Patriots are so bad that I did something yesterday I haven't

05:40done really in years which is I I spent the day with my family and I didn't watch them.

05:48And you know it was OK. I got I caught up with the highlight and I watched the end. I'm glad

05:53they won. I can't wait to hear Bill Belichick whether he's going to speak or not. He probably

05:57won't. You won't miss anything. You know you let me know. Did I miss out. You guys are the best.

06:02Have a good one. No. No. I mean they won. They won. Let's be honest. It was fun at the end.

06:07I think Jets collapse if you want to put you know call it that fine. But it was still did you miss

06:12out. No I missed out. Yeah. But it was a fun little win. Yeah. Booty kind of redeemed himself

06:18as best he could anyway. Come up with a couple of big grabs. I thought in real time I thought he

06:22got in on the one right at the end didn't. Then they run the ball in fourth down. Also super close

06:28trying to review it. Camera angles were horrible. Like like where who set up the cameras. Good

06:33question. Couldn't see anything on either of those. What happens when you get Spiro Ditas

06:36and Adam Archuleta. You don't exactly get as many camera angles. Did you see who we're getting this

06:40way. Yes yes yes. Jason Benetti. What is that. I never heard of this guy. But Eddie's. Well he's

06:44good baseball. I play guy I think. Yeah. And then who's the analyst. I did see it but I don't

06:48Mark Schleyer. Oh yeah. I don't even know he does games. Pissed off. Jason Benetti and Mark Schleyer

06:56and Jen Hale for the. Oh my God. Jen Hale. Jen Hale's going to. Wow. OK. Nice. Pat's Titans.

07:01Nice. But Eddie's good baseball from what I hear. I'm a baseball guy. I honestly wouldn't even

07:06have known that was a team. Yeah. Yes. That is a deep cut. Next week might be family time.

07:11Yeah it could be. Johnny we're off by a week. Next week's family time. Yeah what do you do. It's

07:14it's post pumpkin patch time. It's post Halloween. Just gorge on your kids Halloween game. Are they.

07:20Oh I thought you were making a gourd joke. I don't know. Halloween candy day. Yeah. It's like

07:26just so gross. Yeah. Just you know. Wrappers everywhere. Yeah. Just chocolate all over the

07:30couch. A diabetic sugar high so you can't see. Yeah that's fine. And then yeah then you miss

07:34the game. That's not that's not a bad way to go. Big game coming up.
