00:00All right, Patriots have made a trade.

00:02Woo!

00:03This one was foreshadowed over the weekend.

00:05Patriots are trading past rusher Joshua O'Shea.

00:08O'Shea.

00:10To the Chiefs.

00:11All right, what'd they get?

00:12Sources tell me me, Ian Rappaport, and Mike Garofalo.

00:16Coming off a win, Casey lands a new player on the edge.

00:19I have not seen compensation yet.

00:21All right, that'll probably come out in a few minutes later.

00:22Here we go. It's a sixth rounder in...

00:242026.

00:26A 2026 sixth round pick?

00:29Correct.

00:30That's the equivalent of an eighth round pick.

00:32Which does not exist.

00:34You can't get anything for any of these guys, which is fine.

00:37If you want to free him up, because I really think

00:39when males call him the team soft,

00:41and he's talking about the whole group,

00:43but there has to be a few players that stick out to him.

00:46I've just been thoroughly unimpressed all season with Joshua O'Shea.

00:49It felt like most of the time when you're watching the defense struggle

00:52and there's either a missed tackle or a broken containment

00:56or just something, you're like, oh, he was there.

00:59Oh, there's O'Shea not making a play again.

01:02So I have zero problem with him moving on.

01:04I didn't understand even bringing him back.

01:06I mean, I guess he was cheap.

01:08I didn't understand him wanting to come back.

01:09He wanted to come back. They brought him back.

01:11It was really weird because he really needed to be a free agent two years ago.

01:14He had like 10, 11 sacks.

01:16Probably could have gotten a decent contract,

01:18but he was under contract for one more year.

01:19Played poorly last year.

01:21And then they bring him back and you're like, there's nothing there.

01:24So he gets dealt for a future sixth.

01:27I'm not joking.

01:28I think if you traded for a...

01:31No, I guess that's like a seventh. I'm sorry.

01:33No, you said 2026.

01:34So not even 2026.

01:35Yeah, correct.

01:36I think they say like a year later,

01:39you basically take the round and like bump it down.

01:42What's more valuable, a 2025 seventh or a 2026 sixth?

01:45Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:46I'd rather have the seventh sooner.

01:48Yeah, right. So that is nothing.

01:49You traded him for nothing.

01:50In two years, you get a sixth round pick for Josh O'Shea.

01:53What you didn't do was cut him.

01:54No, but...

01:55But basically that's what happened.

01:56I think I'd rather cut him.

01:57Like, here's the only thing that gives me pause.

01:59And again, if you're just tuning in, breaking news,

02:00Ian Rapoport was first to have it.

02:02Patriots are trading Joshua O'Shea to the Chiefs

02:06for a sixth rounder in 2026.

02:08The thing that gives me pause is the Chiefs.

02:11Oh, that they want him?

02:12Yeah.

02:13Well, I look at this as a big win for Elliot Wolfe.
