I have a dream.

I don't know how realistic that dream is, but that dream will remain intact until the dream is officially dead.

And that dream is that on draft day, 2026, the New York Jets will trade up to the number one overall pick and select Fernando Mendoza.

And that dream remains alive because they are picking two, so it's not like they have to jump very far. And of course it also remains alive because they're loaded and flush with draft picks, not just this year, but next year. And next year is widely considered to be this ridiculously good draft class. So I continue to hold out hope and look at signs on, hey, is it possible? Would the Raiders be open to it? So yesterday at the Combine, the first thing I wanted to do when I found out that John Spitech, the GM of the Raiders was talking, was to find out, was he asked point blank about trading the number one pick? Same thing with Darren Mojee. Are you interested in trading for the number one pick? So I've got clips of both guys answering the question. I'm going to ask you, who do you want to hear from first? The seller or the cellie? Seller.

So that would be... So I've got clips of both guys answering the question. I'm going to ask you, who do you want to hear from first?

The seller or the seller?

So that would be John SpyTech.

Spitech.

All, ladies and gentlemen, the general manager of the Las Vegas Raiders,

John SpyTech, on in his openness to dealing the number one overall pick.

That was his only answers.

Very quick.

I'm listening.

I'm always listening.

That's a good answer.

But he didn't give anything away.

No, he didn't.

Because it was so quick. Does he... I'm listening. I'm always listening. Now, do you take that as he's open for business or I'm always listening? Well, I think he's just always listening. But if he had delayed and then like, well, um... You'd know he's thinking of cooking of something. More open to it. Yes. Right. The fact that he answered right away means he's going to listen. Yeah. I also, and I included the question for a reason, I don't like the question because the question gave him an out. Like the question should be, are you open to trading the number one overall pick? And by way, he could give the same answer.

Yeah.

But it was, do you have to answer the phone call? Right. When you position it as if teams call, do you answer the phone call? Right. Yeah, I don't like that one. You got to make it so he has, he's on the spot. Are you open to trading the number one pick? Yes or no. Yes. And do it very quick because he doesn't have time to think about it.

Now let's get to my general manager. Well, sometimes, you know, reporters like to hear themselves talk. That does happen. Let's get to my GM. As he was asked. How did I never pick up on the Darrell before Tiki pointed that out today? I always focused on the last thing because of Darrell.

Yes. This was in fairness to Joe
