| 0:00.0 | So we now have the offers that were presented to the Patriots for their number three pick. |
| 0:06.5 | Vikings offered 1123 in their 2025 first rounder and then the Giants offered the six pick in their 2025 first rounder. |
| 0:15.0 | Correct. |
| 0:19.0 | Smart move for the Patriots to not accept either. |
| 0:22.0 | No, it's idiotic. but you have a 95 year old man who frequents |
| 0:26.1 | massage pollers demanding a quarterback. That's the bottom line in all of this |

| 1:05.6 | option is the one they took. You could have just taken Marvin Harrison Jr. |
| 1:10.1 | because we're going to be back here anyways. Let's add a weapon. Let's get what we deem to be the best player to drift, right? |
| 1:16.0 | Two, you just zap out of there. I'm out. Take 1123 and an extra one next year. |
