Good morning football live here in New York City. It's Wednesday, March 22nd, Jay Murdole, Kyle Branch, James McCordy, |
| 0:55.6 | Tom Pelliserra, who is still reeling from being called out for using a term like blockbuster |
| 1:01.1 | trade a little too freely. Please speak on yourself. I still disagree that Darren Waller to the Giants |
| 1:06.4 | is not a blockbuster trade. Fundamentally, it's a very good trade. Some trades that we want to go down between now and draft day. We cooked these up, if you will, Kyle. Sure. And you get to lead us off here. Oh, my gosh. All right. So I'm looking at the AFC East. And just this is an exercise and fun and creativity. If it happens, it happens. but we're using our imagination here. And just what in the hell are the Patriots? And I look at you, Jay. We just saw Heitow retire. We just saw McCordy retire. Then they're in this position where it's like, wow, the other three teams in the division are these really sparkly objects. And they're so talented and everything. I don't know what their identity is. And I know they have to make something out of Mac Jones. |
| 1:45.2 | What if the Patriots traded for Derek Henry? |
| 1:47.3 | That's my trade. |
| 1:58.3 | You hear the rumors. You hear the Derek Henry. The Titans might be shopping. It might not be. And if they're not, if they're throwing things to the TV right now, that's fine. This is an exercise. Is he not to be had? they got rid of Damian Harris. |
| 2:00.5 | If Derek Henry goes there and you set them off with Bill O'Brien and Mack Jones |
| 2:02.2 | with all the Alabama ties that run deep and Belichick, Sabinette, Al. |
| 2:06.8 | And you give Derek Henry and he sits next to Mac Jones and he becomes the offense. |
| 2:11.0 | And it is a run first, run second, run third offense with Ramandre Stevenson. |
| 2:15.2 | They're probably the best backfield in all of the NFL. |
| 2:35.5 | Second round pick of 46 overall. It's rich. Would they do that? Would they do a second and a fourth? Would they do a second alone? The idea of Derek Henry showing up is like, okay, now the Patriots are at the party. They have a bad dude. They have, I think, a future Hall of Famer. Now maybe they can make some noise in the East because right now they are so dormant and so quiet and maybe they're a snake in the grass. |
| 2:37.5 | Every other team seems to be just surging towards a sensational year. You're next to here and Patriot's just waiting watching people retire. Trey for Derek Henry. Tom, your thoughts. I think it's a fascinating fit. Obviously, when the Patriots have been at their best, they've had multiple running backs. |
| 2:48.7 | They got Ramandre Stevenson. |
