00:00And Shanahan, I said this after they lost the Super Bowl to the Chiefs this past year.

00:05I feel like he is on the Andy Reid path where he's never gonna reach his full potential

00:09unless he goes to a new team.

00:10And his dad's from Illinois, there's kind of a, you know-

00:13Franklin Park?

00:14There's kind of an appeal to that.

00:15Yes, of course.

00:16The Chicago area.

00:17Come home, Kyle.

00:19For conversation purposes, what would you give up to get Kyle Shanahan?

00:26A first round pick in a heartbeat, a first and a second.

00:29Would you give up two?

00:30That's the thing.

00:31First and a second.

00:32How much would you give up to get him?

00:33Because I think you should at least have that conversation because the 49ers almost traded

00:37Jim Harbaugh to the Browns ten years ago.

00:40Harbaugh ultimately said no or they would have done it.

00:42So who knows?

00:43If Jed York's thinking about making a change, this might be a great opportunity.

00:47Yeah, Mike, wasn't Belichick famously traded for a first round pick?

00:51Wasn't that the compensation?

00:54And how did that work out?

00:55Yeah, yeah, exactly.

00:57And it wasn't it wasn't the classic utilization of the procedure.

01:01He kind of bullied his way out of the Jets.

01:03He resigned and then the Patriots hired him.

01:05So there was a decision as to what the compensation would be.

01:09But Gruden was traded for two first round picks and eight million in cash.

01:13And I think maybe even more than that, there have been others like Herm Edwards.

01:17There was compensation when he went from the Jets to the Chiefs.

01:22Harbaugh, like I said, was almost traded ten years ago.

01:24I just I it doesn't get used.

01:27It doesn't get used the way it should.

01:29And I would at least inquire as to whether or not the 49ers

01:32would be interested in, you know, in doing a deal.

01:36Because you only you know, there's only one way to find out.

01:39You make the phone call.

01:40That's that is a great idea.

01:42Honest to God, that's a great idea.

01:43That would that would be a game changer.

01:45Of course, in terms of I, I think people would bristle

01:49at the idea of draft pick that high.

01:52But I think it's also you look at the quality of the coach

01:55you'd be getting in return, you could justify it.

01:58Easily, that's a great idea, Mike.

02:01Well, hopefully they're listening.

02:03Maybe hey, hey, you don't need to hire a search firm

02:06when you get free ideas like this, right?

02:09You're a one man search for Mike.
