Transcript
00:00T.J. Watt got a giant bag of cash yesterday.
00:04Got paid.
00:04That he did.
00:06That he did.
00:07That deal, Scheim, means that he is the highest paid non-quarterback ever in the NFL.
00:17Am I correct about that?
00:17That is correct, Greg.
00:18That is correct.
00:19Wow.
00:20Not bad.
00:20Three years, $123 million.
00:23So it's technically, because we had this, we talked about this, Scheim and I brought this up yesterday.
00:28But it's technically, what was this guaranteed?
00:30It's $98.
00:31I thought it was $98.
00:32$108.
00:33$108 is guaranteed.
00:34Yeah.
00:34So it's $30, $32 and change or whatever it is.
00:40Yeah.
00:41And football, always look at the guaranteed money, right?
00:44Always look at that because that really gives you the idea because that's the money that the player will get.
00:49And then I guess if he's still balling in two years, who the hell knows?
00:53He probably wants a new extension if he's still doing things.
00:56He'll be $34 at the end of this contract.
00:59Yeah.
00:59So maybe, you know, and if he's like, if he's still one of the best pass rushers in the NFL, you know, who the hell knows?
01:05Maybe he's able to get him another three-year deal.
01:07If you're Trey Hendrickson, you have to be salivating after seeing this, right?
01:12Because you just know you're going to get paid.
01:13Whether it's by the Bengals or another team, you know you are going to get an absolute bag.
01:17Right, you know you're going to get paid, but you also know, like, you've got to be pissed because you're thinking to yourself, all right, maybe I'm not T.J. Watt, but what the hell are you doing here?
01:27Why is Cincinnati?
01:28And this is why I don't know what New England's doing.
01:31And I talked about whether it was T.J. Watt, whether Chime and I talked both about Trey Hendrickson, whether it's Terry McLaurin.
01:41Micah Parsons.
01:42Micah Parsons.
01:43Like, why are you not?
01:44And maybe they are.
01:46You don't think they're over there cooking on these deals?
01:50You don't think Elliot Wolfe is cooking currently?
01:54I don't know.
01:54I don't think so.
01:55And I don't put it on Elliot Wolfe.
01:57Let the man cook.
01:58Oh, you put it on Mike Vrabel?
01:59Yeah.
02:00Isn't Vrabel the guy?
02:01Well, I mean.
02:01How many people, do you really believe Elliot Wolfe still has?
02:06I think Elliot Wolfe believes that he still has some say in the matter.
02:09Right, but that's like Jalen Brown thinking he's the number one.
02:13You know what I mean?
02:13It's only in your mind.
02:15Like, when I look at.
02:16What's cooking around here?
02:18When I look at the Patriots, I truly believe that Vrabel is the final decision maker when it comes to trades, signing guys.
02:29But when it comes to building these trades, Elliot Wolfe's the guy.
02:31Like, he has to go out and do all the legwork, and then Vrabel just says yes or no.
02:35Yeah, but I think Vrabel says to Elliot Wolfe, hey, what can we give up?
02:39Let's give up this for, or let's pick up the phone and call Pittsburgh and say we're willing to give up a first rounder for TJ Watt.
02:46And this is just hypothetical.
02:47I think that's Vrabel who's doing that, not Elliot Wolfe.
02:50I just don't know that they're going to – I don't think there's going to be an addition to this football team, a meaningful addition.
