Good morning. Welcome back to the Zach Jackson and Friends podcast. I'm Zach Jackson. I'm joined by my friend Mike Fuline. He was here on the first Zach Jackson and Friends last summer.

back. But thank you for having me, Zach. No, listen, it's an interesting time, right? And the sun is out.

We got to go play some golf soon. We got to go to Brookledge, America's finest golf facility right here in northeast Ohio. We got a lot of things we need to do. But first, we got to talk some browns, some calves. Whatever else. What else should we talk about?

You know, they didn't add to the offensive line or the wide receiver groups.

1:53.5

They added a first round pick for next year.
