00:00Of course, maybe the biggest name to monitor, and it might sound tongue-in-cheek to call him the

00:04biggest name in the market, but truly he is. Sam Darnold, where does the quarterback end up in 2025?

00:11With the Seahawks trading away Geno Smith, there is already some speculation that would be a natural

00:16landing spot. So the question is where, and then maybe how much in terms of how much money per year

00:23does Sam Darnold garner at the quarterback spot? What will that tell us about the inflated salaries

00:28at the quarterback position? It is going to be interesting where he does go, but I think we're

00:33figuring right now it's probably going to be Seattle. The other landing spot you'd figure

00:36would be the Pittsburgh Steelers. Not much smoke coming out, but we know that could change where

00:41if you are an agent, and let's just say Sam Darnold is settled in Seattle, and you're not

00:45getting exactly what you want, you pick up the phones, you use some of these beat writers. Hey,

00:50Steelers now checking in. Carolina now checking in. Miami now checking in to create that bidding

00:54market out here for a certain said player. But for me, I think Sam Darnold is going to get a

00:58pretty penny because understand this, did you see the contracts that were given out yesterday

01:03by non-basically free agent football players? Imagine if you get the free agents, as you just

01:08said, you're getting a bidding war. Again, you just start with the quarterback. Teams always

01:12need a quarterback. As long as you have two people interested, there's no limit to what that number

01:16could be. So I'm interested to see how quickly Sam Darnold signs. I don't think, to be honest,

01:21odds on this, Sam Darnold is going to sign today, right? He doesn't even make it into tomorrow,

01:26I would feel.
