Summary
Ryan resists the urge to "do stupid every day" and instead grinds through a loaded slate of NFL news, Packers updates, and a brutally honest deep dive into the free agent market. With 318 names floating in free agency, Ryan walks through why most of them can't help Green Bay — and where there's still one real itch the Packers haven't scratched.
- NFL News & Notes: The Disney/ESPN vs. Comcast standoff over NFL Network and RedZone, the Colts declining Anthony Richardson's fifth-year option, Calais Campbell signing with Baltimore at 40 years old, the Browns' Watson/Shedeur circus, and Russell Wilson retirement/TV chatter.
- Packers Updates: Minnesota favored to host the 2028 NFL Draft, Malik Muhammad's now-viral non-reaction to being drafted by the Bears, the Trey Smack trade-up details, five of six rookies signed (Brandon Sayer the holdout watch), and a hard reality check on the Chase Claypool tryout hype.
- Free Agency Deep Dive: Why Ryan keeps circling back to edge rusher as the one true need — Joey Bosa, Haason Reddick, Derek Barnett, Brandon Graham — and what kind of contract structure could actually make sense behind Van Ness and a returning Micah Parsons.

| 0:23.2 | been yawning at all, but it's just, oh, you're doing the intro? Good time for a yawn. |
| 0:28.6 | Okay. There's a lot that I want to do, and there's an urge because it's, we are in peak off season. |

| 0:37.8 | over now I have to start getting stupid and I'm seeing lots of stupid and the the urge to just |
| 0:42.4 | hang in there and do stupid every day and yell at stupid every day is so strong and I really want to |

| 1:25.8 | myself and, and grow through that a little bit to see, |
| 1:30.7 | you know, again, as I look at the team, I struggle to find areas. I don't want this to sound wrong |
| 1:39.9 | because I don't want it to act like we have a perfect team because we don't. But I just |
| 1:43.5 | struggle to find areas where I feel like we don't have at least some questions. |
| 1:49.6 | We don't have some guys where I would say, let's see what we have first. |
| 1:53.2 | Let's let these guys get in the building. |
| 1:54.7 | Let's get some pads on, get a ball thrown around a little bit and see what we have. There may be issues that |
