All right, let's head out to the Rood guest hotline. Rood is the most reliable heating and air condition products in the DMV and checking with our pal. John Kime, ESPN Commander's Insider. Hey, John. What up, fellas? J.K. What's up? Big day. Big day. Most people are expecting, you know, Washington and Adam Company to be active. Yes. Most people are reporting that... Yeah. By the way, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, E. B. Real quick, are you at the park all day? Or you just kind of... No, no, no, I'm at home. Okay. There's nothing to be gained by being out there. Okay. They're not... You know, it's funny because back in the day, like, player, well, this is a legal tampering. So on the first day of free agency, players used to visit facilities, right? Right. So there would be, it would make sense to be out there during the day, but now, like, there's no benefit. It's that funny. Is it the money so big now? It doesn't matter.

1:11.5

You could have a trash facility. It just doesn't matter. Well, they actually got great grades in the NFLPA grades. Understood. Understood. But still. Yeah, but still, because like back in the day, like the facility wasn't very good. Yep. And, you know, but they, listen, man, as long as the money is good. Right, you'll make anything work.

1:12.0

Yeah.

1:28.6

So I'm looking at, I know I'm looking at in particular Bowen. Is Bowen a ESPN guy? Matt Bowen, yeah. He's a being guy. And we're looking at Bowen's list. And of like his top free agents, I've heard reports that we're kind of like in potentially on all of these or at least have interests like the top four guys?

1:31.3

Yeah.

1:31.6

And so, yeah, like I have heard for a while now that they're going to be not just active.

1:39.0

Like they've been active the last couple of years.

1:41.1

They had to find a lot of guys.

1:42.3

So they were going to be active and they were aggressive pursuing those guys.

1:47.2

What I've heard consistently, and they even wrote an article on this last week for ESPN,

1:50.8

is just that, not only that they are more capable, willing to spend at players,

1:58.4

you know, at the top end money for a guy in a certain position, right?

2:01.1

Or at various positions, whatever it is, as long as the players are right fit.

2:05.0

This is not a return to the Dan Snyder here.

2:07.6

I hope people listening, remember that those crazy spending days typically didn't work.

2:13.1

That said, like there are guys in this free agency period that makes sense for them at positions of needs, and they're always expensive.

2:21.8

So, like, you know, receiver, Alec Pierce, I would say, like, do you really want to get to $28 to $30 million for a guy who he's had one, $1,000?

2:32.7

He's a big playmaker, but, you know, he's not, we're not talking Justin Jefferson here. Now, you wouldn't get that kind of money, but you know what I mean? Like, what's the limit for him? And then I can't remember who else Matt had up there, but there's like, he's got Hendrickson one. Yeah, he's got Henderson one. He's got Linderbaum 2. Jalen Phillips 3.

2:51.5

Phillips is definitely one. And Hendrickson, I'm not sure on. I will say like both, same thing with Linderbom.

2:57.2

Like they're both at positions of need.

2:59.7

Right.

3:00.0

So like they, would they make sense? Yes. I think like ideally they would prefer younger. So like if you have a chance to get a jail in
