0:18.8

Are you in a bit of a panic when you heard the latest from Adam Schaefter yesterday on Pat

0:24.1

McAfee when he was saying that the McLaurin camp is seeking significantly more than

0:31.0

the D.K. Metcalf deal, which averages 33 million per year.

0:34.6

Here's why I'm not panicking because he's here.

0:36.9

Yeah.

0:37.4

Now, if he turned around and said, you know what, we haven't, I came here in good faith, and they're just not making any headway, I'm going to go home. Then I would panic. Right. As long as he's here, I'm not going to panic. Eventually he's going to play and whatever happens, happens. But I do not think they're any closer. I actually now am willing to predict either a trade request or he just has to play out the season under this current contract. Well, the trade request, that's the way I see right now. The trade request should make you panic a little bit. I just don't think they'll honor it. I just think they won't honor it because I think they want him. They have them under contract. They kind of have them by the balls, to be honest with you. Yeah.

1:14.3

Because they know he's smart enough to not sit out a year or sit out half the year. That's just

1:20.5

stupid. It would just hurt his career. So, yeah, it wouldn't be great at this. Yeah, I don't believe

1:26.0

he's going to do that. So they're just going to just gonna they're gonna be tough business people And it is what it is I think he'll give it as all I don't think Terry will half ass it But I don't see I don't see a long-term future right now Yeah it looks I don't see a long-term future.

1:45.5

Right now looks kind of bleak.

1:43.7

Looks kind of bleak. As far as him signing, you know, a two or three-year extension. Yeah. I think they're far, far away. All right, let's go to the phones. 800636-1067. I'm not panicked because he's here, and I think he'll play. but if he wasn't here, I'd be in a full-blown panic.

2:51.3

Like if he was like Trey Hendrickson. If he went back to Indianapolis, where he's from? Right. That I'm not hanging out in Ashburn any longer. Let's go to Charlie in Arlington. Charlie, what's up? Yeah, you said to Kevin Sheehan the other day, you didn't like that the team picked his fight with Terry. Of all people, yeah. Yeah. Terry and his reps, you know, they picked the fight with the team. And, you know, they felt like they had the upper hand. He bawled out last year. Yeah. He's a model citizen. Everybody loves him. But, you know, from AP's chair, they've already got Terry for three years and 90 million, but they can make that deal one year at a time via the franchise tag. So there's no incentive for him to do that. My question for the junks and for the producers, if there was a salary gap for the program, you know, not just the four junkies, but producers and everybody behind the scenes, you know, would there be somebody that you'd say, that's our Terry McLaurin, the, you know, this guy's the heart and soul of the team, you know, just pay him what he's worth and then figure it out later. No, we're all the same. We're all the same. No, I know, I know that's not that's not how your show works but you know if it didn't if it worked like the commanders do

2:52.7

and you had to you had to you had I know that's not how your show works, but, you know, if it didn't, if it worked like the

3:09.3

commanders do and you had to figure it all out over time and everybody's up at a different

3:14.6

time, would, you know, would you be okay, sort of saying, I don't know, it might cost me my money

3:18.9

later, but just pay Drab. He's the heart and soul.

3:22.2

Who would have?
