| 0:00.0 | Two sleeps until the NFL draft. |
| 0:03.1 | Shime, are we getting a Mach 1.0 at any point this morning? |
| 0:07.0 | Greg, it's officially up on WEEI.com, and I will be discussing that in my lead this morning. |
| 0:11.5 | All right. |
| 0:11.9 | Well, draft coverage here at W.E.I is brought to you by Chalk Full of Nuts Coffee and Frank's Red Hot. |
| 0:19.1 | So we will get to that when we get to the leads momentarily with Shime. I'm a little worried, Shyam. I don't know how you feel about them trading out of 31. I don't want to step on your mock. I'm assuming your mock takes into account the 31st pick. Oh, Meggo, it sure does. Like them keeping it there. Oh, no Oh, okay. Then I won't step on it. I won't step on it. I am saying just, I could see how they trade out of that 31 spot because somebody comes in and really wants to get somebody on that, like, the first round pick deal. And they have a certain, like, I don't know, quarterback like Ty Simpson or someone that they're trying trying to trade back up in the first round to go and grab and that the Patriots look at it and go, we think we can get our guy a few spots back. That would be so stupid. Yeah, I don't want it. I don't want it to happen with you. Because if you're going to trade out of it, why don't you just trade it to Philly Fage? Because they don't want it. But I think that's exactly why they're trading out of it, Wiggy. So that when they do trade for A.J. Brown, they don't feel like they lose all of their draft capital. They'll replenish some of it by trading out of 31, get a couple draft picks, and that way when they trade for A.J. Brown, they still have some draft |
| 1:27.6 | picks in their back pocket. |
| 1:29.5 | All right, so you trade out to the second and you pick up an extra third or something like that? Is that what you're telling me? An extra fourth? Yeah, like a third next year or something. You know, so like how much extra draft capital are you getting? Like if you're looking at, let's say this year, and I know this year, the edge position |
| 1:47.8 | is the position that you need, but this year's draft is loaded with edge guys, especially |
| 1:53.0 | in the first round. |
| 1:54.7 | Now, if you feel like that's a position of need, why would you maybe trade out when you |
| 1:59.8 | could potentially get the guy that you want in the first round rather than run the risk that you lose on that chance of getting the guy? |
| 2:06.7 | And if you're going to just trade for A.J. Brown and you're going to use next year's first round draft pick, then that's something, unless you don't think you're going to have to come off a first round draft pick. |
| 2:15.6 | A tweet from Schefter just now, this moment. |
| 2:20.2 | The Patriots will most certainly know by June 1st if they are getting A.J. Brown. |
| 2:25.4 | So that's a really, that's great information. |
| 2:27.6 | Oh, good. |
| 2:28.3 | Nice. |
| 2:30.0 | Bricky news. |
| 2:32.4 | There's this like hot take out there that's not hot at all, that this is all so people don't talk about the Rucini thing. |
| 2:40.3 | Oh, please. |
| 2:41.2 | Like, like, Shepter got this from the Patriots. |
