00:00The New England Patriots, I believe, have something brewing,
00:03something big up their sleeve when it comes to the wide receiver position.
00:06I know we talked about the offensive line and I think the Morgan Moses thing
00:12and what potentially could be doing.
00:14I think there's an opportunity for them to maybe draft some guys later in the draft
00:20when it comes to help at the offensive line.
00:23I still think you could probably get some depth.
00:25Maybe you move Moses to left tackle for a year.
00:29But I think there's going to be a big splash when it comes to the wide receiver.
00:33And I think that's going to be via trade.
00:37So because for them to address really every position,
00:43but not really address, I think, their position that they need the most
00:48and that it's the hottest to find, in my opinion,
00:52when it comes to finding that elite wide receiver
00:55that can literally change the face of your offense,
00:59there is something big up that sleeve.
01:01And I don't know what that is.
01:02I don't know if it's an A.J. Brown trade.
01:04I don't know.
01:05I know some people are not a big fan of it.
01:07I don't know if it's a George Pickens trade.
01:09But there is something big that I believe the Patriots will do
01:12and address when it comes to the wide receiver position.
01:15Well, they have to be, like, it has to be at the top of their list.
01:19Yes, and that's why I think that it's something big
01:22because they're not really doing anything when you come
01:26and you start to look at where they are with the position.
01:29It has to be trade, though.
01:31Really, there's not, Shine, correct me,
01:33there's really nothing left for the agency.
01:35No, there's like nothing left for the agency.
01:37And I hate to be a wet blanket, but they're not trading for anybody.
01:41They're not trading draft picks.
01:42They've shown you they have zero interest in trading
01:44even their seventh round draft picks,
01:46just have the rights to talk to the guy
01:48and keep him at least under the contract he currently has.
01:50Like they're not trading actual draft capital for any players.
01:53I'm sorry, it's not happening.
01:55Would anybody be opposed to trading the fourth overall pick for AJ Brown?
01:59Yes, that's a good one.
02:01That's a lot.
02:02I might be on board for that.
02:04I am, sign me up.
02:05That's a lot of value.
02:08I mean, you're on the AJ Brown train
02:13because of his experience with Rable.
02:16Yeah, he's good.
02:17He's this thing, he's fast, he's talented, he can catch the ball.
02:20He's only 27.
02:22Eagles have already said they're not trading him.
02:24Yeah, that's what they say.
02:25A lot of people say a lot of things, and then you give them the right price.
02:28But I think something big is going to happen.
02:30And I believe maybe there's deeper conversations
02:35that are trying to happen with AJ Brown.
02:37Maybe that's why they've been a little hesitant
02:40with some of these other receivers, whether it's Deebo, Samuel.
02:43But I'm telling you, something big is happening.
02:46All I ask is that just like with the Red Sox,
02:48when you said they would sign somebody,
02:50if they don't do it, you have to criticize them.
02:53And if they do do it, I will admit that I was dead wrong.
02:55I'm telling you, I don't see them trading any valuable draft capital
02:59for anybody at this point.
03:01And just to be clear, so people out there
03:03would rather have the short-arm tackle than AJ effing Brown.
03:08What are you doing here?
03:10Yeah, I wouldn't have to.
03:12I don't care what tackle.
03:13The tackle could have 60-inch arms.
03:15AJ Brown is a legit proven commodity.
03:18So you would have no concern whatsoever giving the 4-up for that?
03:22No, and giving AJ Brown new money.
03:24One of the odds that the guy they pick at 4
03:26is as good as AJ Brown at his position.
03:28Slim to none.
03:29And who cares about the money?
03:31The cap is gone.
03:32It's only financials the reason you wouldn't do it,
03:34and there's no reason not to.
03:35But what if you were looking at Travis Hunter?
03:38I would still go with AJ Brown.
03:40If everything goes well with Travis Hunter,
03:42he is almost as good as a receiver as AJ Brown,
03:45but never quite as good.
03:46You just locked up the corner.
03:48You have two good corners.
03:49Why would you need Travis Hunter?
03:51Listen, Travis Hunter wouldn't even be able to be
03:53in the same category at wide receiver
03:55when it comes to AJ Brown
03:56because Travis Hunter is going to play cornerback
03:58and 90%, 95% of his practice time
04:02is going to go to cornerback.
04:04So he'll be a,
04:07and I think you said this yesterday, Greg Best,
04:09he'll be a gadget guy.
04:11And that's fine,
04:12but AJ Brown is a legitimate number one wide receiver.
04:17Now, Travis Hunter will be a good cornerback,
04:19but you already signed the cornerback.
04:20You have two good cornerbacks.
04:21Yeah.
