| 0:02.5 | Guaranteed Human. |
| 0:08.6 | Welcome to NFL Daily, where we might have to make it the top 100 and two free agents |
| 0:14.5 | of 2025. |
| 0:16.0 | I am Greg Roosevelt. |
| 0:16.8 | I am here in Indianapolis at the scouting combine in a half-full convention center where |
| 0:24.7 | everyone is setting up for the big day where it starts tomorrow. And I am joined for the first time |
| 0:29.9 | on NFL Daily, excited to do so with Tom Pelliserro, our insider at NFL Network alongside Ian Rappaport. What's up? Hey, happy to be here. |
| 0:40.7 | Glad that I get to make my debut. It's great to see you live and in person. It's always fun to get |
| 0:45.6 | to get out of the basement studio and see people. It is nice to do that. And yes, you are kind of the |
| 0:51.4 | Yin to Rappaport's Yang. And I've been here at the NFL for over a decade. And I've seen the rise of Pelliserra. How is everything going just with you in rap sheet? Because that's a tricky relationship to work out. You know, you've both been inside. Yeah, we kind of find, along with Mike, you know, ways that we can, you know, be able to stave off the fights. Like, if you notice in the past month, there's a lot of sources tell the insiders or purr the insiders in the tweets. And that was a catch-all that came out of, okay, when in down, just say that, and we'll fight over credit later. I suppose, how did you leave me off? So we were trying to, like, stave off those fights. I think it's gone pretty well so far. You guys are killing it. We got to get a handle at some point for that. But, you know, yeah, per the insiders, that's the back story on that, is it's just to keep me from strangling them. So you are joining us on a big day in NFL daily in the off season, which is the day NFL.com releases my top 101 free agents. |
| 1:47.6 | I put a lot of work into. Which, by the way, I said the other day during the production call for the insiders, I'm like, is Greg's list out there? He's like he hasn't published it yet. I'm like, well, then what are we supposed to put on the graphics? You're the, you're the Oracle of these are the names. Well, they're out there now, and so you can check that out on NFL.com. And I thought you will know this list and the players and the agents and the values better than anyone. So I was excited to have you on for that. I mentioned, by the way, we might have to go to 102 because I saw what PFF did. I always made it 101 because I just thought it had a snappy ring to it. Also, one more than 100. Every other site's got 100 just shows we're working a little bit harder. And now I noticed PFF made theirs 101 too. They just didn't. It's a straight knockoff. So I might just have to go to a 102. But we're going to do some news before we get into the 101. And I wanted to start with something you spoke about on the Rich Eisen Show on Friday. It was really the first time it was out there. It was interesting because I was like, shouldn't this be like breaking news on NFL network? We had that conversation of the group gap too. |
| 2:51.8 | Listen, there are some things. |
| 2:53.2 | I know you're getting at Matthew Stafford. |
| 2:54.6 | So there are some things, and this is like a broader, I could do an hour on this. |
| 2:59.4 | I won't. |
| 3:00.3 | But there are some stories that I don't think are necessarily conducive to tweet format. |
| 3:06.9 | Yes. |
| 3:07.4 | This was one of those |
| 3:08.5 | where we were going to talk about |
| 3:09.7 | on the insiders and then the clock |
| 3:11.5 | ran out and yada yada and then |
