| 0:15.4 | Welcome to the athletic football show. |
| 0:17.7 | Today's Tuesday, March 15th. |
| 0:19.4 | I'm Robert Mays. |
| 0:20.4 | Joining me today. It's my good friend |
| 0:21.7 | Lindsay Jones. Lindsay, how you doing? I'm great. I'm ready to do this. It's been another fun day of free agency. So, and hopefully something crazy will happen in the next hour. Let's go. I'm sure something will. I'm sure at least one crazy thing will happen. So we're going to talk about some of the signings that have rolled in since I recorded with Nate yesterday afternoon. |
| 0:20.0 | We're going to talk about some of the signings that have rolled in since I recorded with Nate yesterday afternoon. We're going to talk about some team-wide plans that we've |
| 0:42.0 | liked, that we've disliked, that have made sense, that haven't made sense. Before we get into |
| 0:46.2 | some of that stuff, though, let's start with, in my opinion, the most fun news of today so far. |

| 1:23.6 | we get news that that deal has fallen apart. And now Randy Gregory is headed to Denver |
| 1:29.9 | for the exact same terms. Yeah. And so Randy Gregory was on the kind of the short list of |
| 1:35.4 | edge rushers that the Broncos were interested in, the guys that were, you know, they could potentially |
| 1:39.7 | be pursuing. It was Randy Gregory, Chandler Jones, and then Bon Miller has kind of been the, |
| 1:45.2 | you know, the fantasy player that every, that Broncos fans wanted. But so I remember when I saw that, I was like, okay, well, that's a guy off the list for the Broncos, right? Randy Gregory is gone. Huge because it's a short list. And even after yesterday with Asan Reddick going, Emmanuel Agba resigning. |
