| 0:00.0 | This is an I-Heart podcast. |
| 0:02.5 | Guaranteed Human. |
| 0:04.5 | The Around the NFL podcast has no dead cap money. |
| 0:12.4 | From the Chris Wessling podcast studio, it's Around the NFL. |
| 0:16.8 | I am Dan Hansis. |
| 0:17.9 | I have heroes here, Greg Rosenthal and Mark Sessler. And it is the second day of the new league year. And kudos to us for finally cutting through all the red tape. |
| 0:33.7 | And like, don't tell me the league year starting Wednesday is this big, important entree |
| 0:38.8 | the whole week. It's the beginning of the week. And now here later in the week. So we took |
| 0:43.6 | Wednesday off. And now we have a much clearer picture of everything. Haza. I mean, to me, |
| 0:50.8 | there is no larger force, farce, I should say, |
| 0:57.8 | in all of pro sports than the NFL calendar in March. |
| 1:02.8 | Like, none of it, it's like, don't try to tell me that anything starts at a certain time. |
| 1:06.9 | I won't buy it because we were, like, day two of what? |
| 1:10.3 | We've been grinding since Sunday mid-afternoon. If I-Heart's not going to give us any credit, at least Dan did right to start off the show. Nailed it. Nailed it. We're good at that. This is, yes, really, in reality, the fourth day of the league year, don't listen to them. Listen to us. |
| 1:33.5 | And that means many, many of the big players that were going into free agency, |
| 1:37.9 | looking for homes or looking to stay with their team, just looking to do business, |
| 1:38.8 | have done that business. |
| 1:46.8 | In fact, Gregi, of your top 101, how many, who's the, what number is the highest ranking player left? |
| 1:51.7 | Well, Tyron Smith has like a four next to his name, but on the original list, he would have been, I think, 14. |
| 1:54.9 | And he also would have been the only player on the original list of even the top 20 that's unaccounted for. |
| 2:00.6 | The only one. And then, yeah, so one out of the top. Kendall Fuller, who I apparently valued a lot higher than NFL teams actually just came off the board. He would have been 13th on the list that went, you know, kind of final on Monday as the negotiating period started. And he just went off the board to the dolphins, |
| 2:18.5 | who have actually made a quietly a bunch of nice little moves. We're still working on our list. And I think there's... Yeah, that's a lot of questions. No, it's, no, it's more like, you know, we exhibit patience. What will the list will come when we feel it's time for it to show us? I mean, what do we do? the horse is out of the barn. |
