Triple back alert triple back alert triple back alert triple back alert folks. That's right. Tyree kill gets paid Harrison
Bucker gets paid and Zeven Collins gets paid as well as somewhat of a mini rent alert because
All the speculation going on with brand-new York. Okay, we have to address a certain things
We got to call a few people out because things are starting to get out of hand with this whole situation
Okay, as well as with the recent signs to a anti-rekill and Jalen waddle and other people
Does this put pressure on dolphins to win it all this year?
And if not then what then what should they do moving forward to enhance their chances of winning at all as well as
AFC North
Training camp coverage now there are a few teams that I have more information about and then there's other teams
I don't have a whole lot of information about but we're gonna cover all these things as well as the rankings
For the AFC North as well as which teams are best prepared to win and
Make a crazy playoff run and eventually maybe even win a Super Bowl all of this in more on the
21st episode. Oh wait. I forgot to tell you the new
Title has been dropped. I have now decided to call myself
Bagro Domis
That's right. Bagro Domis
Yes
Yes, I am your host your Bagro Domis your GM your meteorological bag alert
associate founder and CEO
CEO Kale and guess where I am folks. I'm in the mountains of Washington
Looking over the beautiful forest. So guess what? You know, we gotta do let's lock in
All right, so let's just let's just dive into exactly what's going on because there's a lot of things that we have to talk about
Within this within this episode. I'm gonna try to be as reserved as I possibly can but it probably will not happen
But let's just go into these bag alerts. Okay, so Tyree kills contract
Situation is a little bit a little bit weird, but I'm going to explain it
Right now so everybody can understand it. So basically he agreed to a restructure deal of 90 million dollars over the next three years
Including 65 million in guarantees which brings the total money fully guaranteed to 106.5 million
Wow not adding new years to the deal. So basically what they did was they added they upped his
Guarantees for the remaining parts of this contract Wow at the same time not adding any more years
So in some ways, it's a little bit of a raise if you would sort of
Think of it like that, but you know, this was definitely coming down the pipeline
It was a matter of when it was going to happen and how much
You know guarantees he was going to be looking for at this point. Let's be real folks Tyree kill continues
To prove that he is still the best receiver. If not the best receiver the second best receiver
In the league, okay, when you look at his stats last season
171 targets for 119 receptions
1799 yards 13 touch touchdowns and he had
15.1 yards per reception. Okay, that is Tyree kill
This is the person that we're talking about now when you look that you know all the things that the dolphins have done lately
It does you know beg the questions?
as far as
Do you think the dolphins are in a position to you know make a run and do I think it?
No, not really
No, not really because we have seen multiple times what happens when a team decides to put all of their money
On one side of the ball the other side lacks and then what happens is they get into a situation
Where they go up against a team who is able to?
You know basically pick apart that team and pick apart that side of the ball and now you know, it's basically
They have to you know do whatever they have to do in order to win the game, right?
And so I say all that to say this, you know when when you look at some of the things that they've done
You know within the past what two or three years? They got Bradley Chubb, you know, they traded for him in 2022
They traded for Jaylen Ramsey in 2023. They picked up to Ron Armstead in free agency
They picked up Kaleas Campbell in free agency. They picked up OBJ in free agency. They paid Jaylen Waddle. They paid to
And they also
Resigned Raheem Moser so they've done a lot of things lately
But the question is is this enough for them to win it all?
That is the number one question
I think everyone needs to ask at this point because for one the division
It's not it's there's not a solid, you know, this is the person who owns the division. It's not the division is up
You know, it's up in the air for anybody at this point
You have you still have the dysfunctional jets
You still have the Buffalo Bills who are still trying to figure out exactly what is their
Identity especially for the offensive side
While as you know, their defense is starting to age out and you know
they really haven't been hitting on a lot of their draft picks when it comes to the defense and
You know, the Patriots are still going through some they're going through a hard rebuild
So it's anybody's division at this point. So if the Dolphins were smart
They would try to see and they would try to steamroll everybody within their division
So that it'll give them a better chance to go up against a weaker opponent within the playoffs because let's be real here
Folks if the Dolphins were to go up against a team, you know
Like the Chiefs like the Ravens in the playoffs, they would get steamrolled
They would get steamrolled and it's not only because you know
The the Ravens had this or they have that or the Chiefs have Patrick Mahomes and you know and Travis Kelsey, you know
Both of those teams are they they they have a potent offense in a way potent defense, right?
You're talking about two teams right now that can play punch you in the mouth style of football
Right and we literally saw how the Dolphins basically crumbled
You know as the season started to you know to wind down, you know after after that dynamic game against the Broncos
Where they put up almost, you know 70 or most 80 points on them everyone was like, okay
You know, this is the you got worried about the Dolphins now
But it's like no because after that they just fell off and then not to mention when they had to go up against the Chiefs in the playoffs
They couldn't take the cold
So it's like it's it's a lot riding on this because they have invested so much into the offense
They've done it and it's like okay at some point something has to hit they locked up their French
They're somewhat, you know, they're so called franchise quarterback. They locked up both of their receivers
Something has to click at this point something now. Do I think it's gonna happen?
I don't know unless they you know, maybe
Maybe probably do something, you know for the defense as well
Maybe it can happen. But as of right now, I don't know. I really don't and I'll just leave it there at now
Moving on to Zeven Collins outside linebacker for the Arizona Cardinals
He inked a two-year 14 million dollar extension
11.25 million in total guarantees and he'll be making 7 million a year now when you look at this deal
Again, as I've said before with the whole
What is it? Godchild? I think that's his last name Godchild for the Patriots. This is basically an insurance policy
This is what it is because they lost BJ O'Jallari
For the rest of the season because I think he either tore his ACL or he tore his Achilles
So basically they're just trying to make sure that you know, they locked somebody up at least
While at the while at the same time making sure that you know, nobody tries to you know, go after him
You know once the once the cut downs happen for rosters and things of that nature
but you know his stat line really doesn't speak a whole lot but
You know to say that he is someone that teams have to really worry for I don't know
Because when you look at his stats, especially last year specifically
He had three past deflections three and a half sacks six quarterback hits one pick now when you look at these stats
You're probably thinking and it's not really the best
But you know, sometimes if you look at the tape you might see something completely different, right? And so, you know
There's that I don't really have a whole lot to speak about will come when it comes to seven Collins
But congratulations now when you look at Harris can Harrison but Kerr, you know kicker for the Chiefs
He ain't a four-year 25.6 million dollar deal 17.75 million in guarantees
He'll be making 6.4 million a year which technically makes him the highest paid kicker in the NFL
Now Harrison Bucker has been a little bit more of a controversial
You know figure recently with with the recent comments that he's made
About women, you know, I'm not gonna discuss those if you want you can you know
You can look those up in your in your own time, but I'm just not going to do that
But you know the the fact of the matter is Harrison Bucker has definitely, you know made a few a few clutch kicks
You know for the Chiefs, you know to either send them to the Super Bowl or to win the Super Bowl
so
You know congratulations to him and all those different type of stuff now
let's get into the meat and potatoes of this situation because
And in this this might turn into a little bit of a rant and learning if it does that's perfectly fine. I really don't care
Just as much as I really don't care about, you know stealer fans and whatnot. So
There was there was a few people yesterday who I will remain well
I'm gonna try to keep them anonymous, but you know, if it doesn't happen then oh well, I don't care
Who were basically putting out tweets are basically saying that you know a trade was basically imminent
between Brandon I you again the Pittsburgh Steelers and you know for the longest time, you know
Steelers Twitter was just you know was just there they were just going ballistic because they were like, oh
It's about to happen. It's really about to happen
This is really happening and then come to find out and never did happen
it's not even close right and then you know later on that night then you find out that
Apparently there is offers from both the Patriots and the Browns who both want Brandon I you so you know, it's
This is what I'll say. This is this is what I'll say Brandon I you it is in a situation
Where you know, I understand he he wants to get paid. I understand that no problem against it, but at the same time
You are literally in the best situation possible
Literally, you're in the best position possible
Because you are on a team right now that the only two teams that you have to worry about is either the Lions or the Eagles and
Even then guess what you've beaten both of those teams
Pretty good pretty fairly you've beaten them
So then why in the world would you want to leave a team that is almost destined to go to the Super Bowl?
This upcoming season and then go to teams that they don't even really they have a chance to do it
But it's not set in stone that they're going to do it right there
Their path to the Super Bowl is 10 to 20 times much more harder than what the 49ers are having to endure
I'm just being honest here. Let's just call it spade-to-spade right and I understand you want to get paid
You want to get all that money, but
There's just certain things that you have to you know factor in at this point for one
um
The 49ers are are basically looking for you know players that can you know that can serve as direct impact to them winning a championship
Right, and they're probably looking for a first-round pick as well now
Granted, you know, you probably will want to go after a team that you know could probably have a high first-round pick case in point
The Patriots compared to going after a team, you know, like the Browns or the Steelers who you know, they're probably gonna have a
middle to late first-round pick right and then not to mention, you know, the money that you're looking for that
That's a lot of money, right?
You you're looking for money when in when in all actuality and I don't care what anyone says
You're not better than AJ Brown. You're not better than Justin Jefferson. You're not better than the Vontae Adams
You are not better than some then some of the highest paid receivers right now
Okay, because let's be real here. You're literally in the best
If not the best the second best offense in the league right now
So who was to say that a lot of the things that that has happened so far is because of the situation that you're in
Because guess what a team is going to be really pissed off if they put over 25
30 34 or like
35 million dollars into you and you don't even do half the things that you did when he was with San Francisco
So it's it's a very rocky situation
And you know if I was Brandon now you just play it
Just play it because guess what if you win a Super Bowl this year guess what's gonna happen?
You're your value instantly shoots up and so now and so now teams basically have to give you your money
They can't just you know fight you you know tooth and nail about it. No, they're gonna give it to you because why you're a Super Bowl champion
You contributed to winning a championship, bro
But you doing this is not it's not the way it is just not and to the
And to the you know the Twitter accounts that you know you have purchased your blue check marks
And you think that you're credible and whatnot. You're not you're not and I you know, you know exactly who I'm talking about
You know exactly who who this is going towards because you cannot put out things and say oh my sources
that that
That the paid not the Patriots, but the Pittsburgh Steelers and the in the 49ers are
Very close to working on a deal and then nothing happens. Oh
That's not what you do. You're just doing that for clickbait
You're doing that just to get attention and you shouldn't be doing that anyway because you're a radio host, but
Am I not surprised? No because he's done this before right and then you have Twitter accounts like Ricky
Who you know, this was the same fool who basically said oh, yeah
The Cowboys and CD land have agreed to have agreed to a deal and then you started to see other accounts
That were basically saying yes, that's happened when it's like no it never happened and never happened
It's never happened so far. I'm and this is that this is something that I stick by and I will continue to stick by
Unless unless the information is coming from Ian Rappaport Adam Schefter
Josina Anderson Kim Lee Martin Jeremy Fowler
Mike Garofalo Tom Pelle Ocero or any of those people that are really connected
into G into NFL front offices and have actual real sources and have reported credible
information
Do not believe anything
Do not believe anything now there are there are some times where there are people who you know
They have connections that they can you know tap into and they can report certain things and those are you know
Those are the outliers of those different types of situations, right?
but what you what you cannot do is
Put out fake news and don't put you know in your in your bio or whatnot that oh
I've been covering the league for eight years nine years ten years or whatever. No you haven't no you haven't no you haven't
Because when people look at your bio and they click on your link and whatnot you haven't even put out anything recently
So again, I say all of that to say this
Before we react and before we get into our emotions and before we you know have this big hype about certain things
We need to wait until credible sources report on any and every
You know every type of move that that may be occurring within the league
Okay, and not just saying oh well, I have speculation and I believe that you know things are gonna happen
It's okay if you make it an educated guess and the educated guess was correct then can guess what?
Congratulations, you want a cookie?
But what you cannot do especially if you have a platform is
Report fake news and report fake information that is not credible and then it does not happen
Because guess what you know what that does that that puts a stain on your credibility
Why wouldn't even say that because you've never had credibility never never had credibility
So you're just doing this for likes and you're doing this for
for retweets and whatnot and and that's perfectly fine if you want to but in
In this type of situation and you know how how sensitive
Steelers Twitter is lately with this whole brand-new situation. Why would you want to do that?
Just why why would you want to do that? So?
That's all that that's all I have to say about that because it's it's
It's it's gotten to a point where it's like bro. Everybody acts like they're the credible source
Everybody acts like oh, I know this person know that person. Yeah, I don't know shit
Y'all don't y'all don't know a damn thing y'all think y'all do y'all think because well I talked to my friend who you know
My man's you know, he works, you know in the janitor's office of the 49ers
And you know, he was cleaning out his trash can and you know, he stumbled and he saw you know
John Lynch's phone was open and whatnot
Stop
Stop, please stop get some help get some help. Okay drink some water because you don't know what you're talking about
leave the the real reporting in the real
Journalism and I mean real
Journalism to the people that actually do these things that have these conversations behind closed doors that knows things
Way before they even happen and then report them in an accurate way. Okay, do that
Do do that for it for all of us, please now on to bigger and better things than to talk about people who don't know what they're talking about
We'll have no credibility to their name, but just a platform the somewhat rocky and unstable
platform that they have
Let's let's talk about the FC north, okay
So it was so far recently with everything that's been going on especially with training camp, you know
I've definitely heard a lot of good and a lot positive things, but I will say this
The thing that really is you know, really starting to grab my attention is what the Ravens are doing, right?
So if you guys don't know the Ravens brought in what was it free agent center former dolphins
Connor Williams in for a visit and apparently he's supposed to be making his decision soon
between the Ravens and the Seahawks according to Adam Schefter and so basically
You know the Ravens the Ravens low-key
They can they they can run it back and I think this year
They could probably go farther than what they did last year because now you have this
Battering Ram this tank in Derek Henry on that offense behind that offensive line. Okay now
Me personally, you know, I think what would really stands out more for that team is the defense
The defense from what I've heard and for what I'm from what I've read
Sounds very very very ready to you know to compete with some of the best. I really do, you know with them drafting
Nate Wiggins and then TJ Tampa and then you know them, you know
Just just doing the things that they do for that defense
I would not be surprised if that's a top three or top five
Defense, I would not be surprised. I just put it and then not to mention, you know
Trent went Trent Simpson is starting to get more reps, you know as the as the number two middle linebacker along with
You know real quiet and Smith. So, you know Kyle Hamilton is doing his thing Lamar is starting to get back into the swing of things
I know he had a some some of what was it sort of like a a
Stomach bug or like a little bit of like the stomach flu or something, but I know he's he's gonna be fine
But I think really, you know, the raiders are in a really good situation this year
They really can't I think if they if they come out guns blazing against the Chiefs and they really like punched them in the mouth
That sends a message not only to the AFC, but to everybody and into the league
We're not the ones to play with that's the message and so, you know
I say all that to say this the Ravens
I'm keeping a very close eye on I really am because they only they honestly really just need to just boast up their offensive line
It's not even really all their offensive line. I think it's more of their their their interior offensive line specifically guard
I think if they do that
While while also having someone who can play center if need be I think that definitely helps out a lot
And I think they just need another patchwrestler. So I wouldn't be surprised if they try to you know
Take a swing at someone like a Jude on or you know, whoever could could become you know available
I just would not be surprised, right now moving on to the Browns
I haven't really heard a whole lot about the Browns, you know, but I wouldn't be surprised if things are starting to
You know go into the you know going to a somewhat of a good place
I do feel like you know, there is a lot of pressure on the Sean DeSean Watson's shoulders this year because you know
The Browns moved heaven and earth to get him and so far
It's starting to look like that was that was a reach a major reach if we can be honest here, right?
Now granted I understand he was hurt last year. Okay perfectly fine
But you know the level of excuses is starting to dwindle, right?
So at some point the Sean Watson has to show up. He has to show up that defense that defense balls out every single year
It's time for the Sean Watson to show up
Okay, because if we can be real here folks Joe Flacco showed a lot more and he was playing with house money
Compared to what the Sean Watson was doing and mind you they gave the Sean watch fully guarantee contract
But I'm gonna leave that alone now moving on to the bangles the bangles. I've heard more about the offense
And I really heard a lot about the defense. I know Jamar Chase is you know is holding in and whatnot
I don't know exactly what's going on with T Higgins either
But you know the the big craze that's been going on is you know, Joe Burrow blotting his hair and basically looking out looking like you know
Eminem when he was slingshading whatnot don't really care about that
The fact of the matter is folks, you know, the bangles are in somewhat of a crossroads this year
Okay, and the reason why I say that is because
Look that defense has aged horribly
They've lost a lot of their players to free agency and cuts and trades and whatnot. Okay
The offense is the only thing that's keeping them alive and in games
That's the only thing and even then I
Mean, you know the run game is basically going at this point because they traded away Joe mixing
So it's like exactly how in the world are things going to flow this year?
Okay with them losing Tyler board and then then replacing him with Jermaine Burton
Exactly. How is this offense going to to flow? Okay, Joe Burrow is still is still Joe Burrow
I'm kidding one says despite the injuries that he suffered. He's still a top five top ten quarterback
Okay, he is still somebody that can win that can win games that can carry that offense on his shoulders and get the win
If need be I just I really want to see though how things work out with their offensive
Offensive line, especially their their tackles. Okay, because they drafted the Marius Mims and then they paid for Trent Brown
And then they also have Orlando Brown as well
So I just want to see exactly how things are just going to mesh together
I think that's that's somewhat of the the biggest question that I have for them at this point and you know
Should they possibly be a little bit active?
You know once you know once the the cuts you know happen and whatnot to try to bolster up that defense
Especially that secondary because let's be real here folks
That secondary is dog water
It's dog water aside from Mike Hilton who is mainly a slot cornerback
And it's mainly used for blitzing and whatnot. What else do you have?
What else do you really have nothing? I mean granted you have Trey Henderson and you have Sam Hubbard
But you lost Larry. Oh, good job. You you lost DJ reader this this year in free agency
I mean you have Logan Wilson. You still have Jermaine Pratt, but I mean that that's not a whole lot
That's not earth shadowing and whatnot. Okay granted. They got Geno stone, but it's like
Okay
Let's see. Let's see what happens at this point, right now moving on to the Steelers now
You're probably wondering why I leave the Steelers for last because there's a lot of things that I have to talk about here
And again, see what's fancy to get mad at me. That's perfectly fine. Do not care
I think my main takeaway is I want to see
Exactly how things are going to go
leading into preseason and into the regular season because and
And and this is that this is this is how I'm viewing things, right?
Last year, you know during training camp in preseason, you know, we were seeing, you know
Can he pick it? You know do his thing and you know, he was lining up and you know, the office was flowing
And you know everything was looking great and everyone was really talking about everybody was like whoa
This office looks different and then guess what week one didn't do a damn thing
They didn't do a damn thing. So I'd stay on that to say this don't always believe the hype. Okay
This is practice. We're talking about not a game not a real game. That's scrimmage. We're talking about practice, okay?
And you know, I do feel like, you know, it's still Russell Wilson's job to lose
However, I do think with Justin Fields being able to you know, take those those first team reps
reps and you know build chemistry with all the receivers and you know, including Pat fire move and then as well as
Najee Harrison whatnot, I definitely do think you know, that makes the Steelers feel a little bit more confident and
Potentially, you know, signing him to a longer term deal
You know once once this upcoming season is over with and then probably letting you know, Russell Wilson go
I understand, you know, there are still people that are saying well, I think Justin Fields is over Russell Wilson. No, he's not
No, he's not. I don't care. Anyone says I understand
He hasn't you know done a whole lot best believe when week one comes around Russell Wilson will be ready
He will be ready. He will be ready to compete. He will be ready to you know, show why he is still a
Dangerous quarterback. Okay, that that's that that's just what it when it boils down to
As far as the defense the defense is the defense
Not a whole lot to say about it, you know, TJ why doing his thing
Alex Hotshawth doing his thing Peyton Wilson is you know looking like a dog out there
Patrick Queen is doing his thing. So, you know, great for that. I will say this, you know, Benny
Beanie Bishop has definitely been been lining it up. He really has our
He is gonna make it. He's gonna make the roster. He definitely is
Um, but my question is should they go after, you know, maybe one more corner?
just to short things up because after Joey Porter Jr and
Dante Jackson, I mean sure they have Darius Russian and Corey Trice
But they haven't had a whole lot of you know experience a whole lot of reps, right?
And you know, you still have people like adori Jackson, Xavion Howard, Stefan Yomor who are in you know,
Corey in free agency, JC Jackson, right?
That you know, if you get them on your team that could short things up a little that that can short things up a lot
Honestly, because they have experience. They know, you know
What's the best way to go up against this type of receiver that type of receiver?
They have those type of things, especially someone like a Stefan Gilmore, right? He's one of defensive player of the year
He's won championships. He's been, you know, one one of the best corners in the league
So he knows the ins and outs. He can still tackle. He can still, you know, go with the best
He can still do that, right?
So I say all that to say this the Steelers probably need to invest into
Figure out what they want to do with that as well as what they want to do with the defensive line because
you know, you have two veterans who you know
Larry Oganjobi, you can't really rely on you basically have to wrap him up in bubble wrap
Because every time he gets on the field, he gets hurt and he can't stay healthy
He just can't and then once once he starts to get hurt, you know, his production does start to go down a little bit
Cam, I mean Cam is Cam, but I mean exactly, you know
What exactly do you expect for him to do at this point, right?
Do you expect for him to go back to the, you know, 10 and a half sex season type of Cam?
Or do you do you expect more out of him, right?
And I'll just leave it there now for the offense. Well back to the offense
I just want to see how things are gonna go with Arthur Smith. Okay, I'm tired of the talking tired of the debating tired of the speculation
What not I want to see how things are going to go. That's what I want to see. Okay
I want to see are these receivers, you know, like that or if they're not and if so do they need to go after somebody?
As well as you know, is this run game going to be potent?
That's what I want to see at this point because you know for the longest time everyone was saying oh, we want to run the ball run the ball run the ball
Well, this is your opportunity to run the ball run the ball run the ball
And I think and this will probably be the last thing I'll probably say about them
I think the main problem that I have is
Broderick Jones hasn't had a lot of time playing at left tackle
Which sort of you know worries me just a little bit because you know Omar Khan basically said that Broderick Jones will play left tackle
It's like now's the time for you to play left tackle. Okay, you have Troy Troy
Fautano, Troy Fautano is gonna play a right tackle
They need to build that chemistry together that line needs to build that chemistry together because
Dan Moore at this point
I would not be surprised if he get traded or cutting whatnot. He's still a he's still a good, you know productive left tackle
But you know you invested two drafts back to back in tackle
They have to play, you know at their respective positions at this point
They have to right and you know the question is when is that going to happen?
Is that going to happen now is it going to happen next year?
Like the longer that you the longer that you put this off the worst, you know
The worst of an outcome it could possibly be right now
Moving on to you know who I think is probably the best positioned team in the north to to make a playoff run now me personally
I would say
It's probably the Ravens first
then the Browns
Then the Steelers then the Bengals and the reason why I have it have it at that is because the Ravens are still
Unfortunately the best team in the AFC north. Yes. I said it. Yes. I said it Luke. Yes. I said it
I said it I said it whatever don't care
They are still the best team in the division and you know, they were that's it's only they're only going to get better as the season
Progresses right that that's just what it is. They have a potent offense as well as a very potent defense, okay?
They are going to create problems for a lot of teams. Okay, they still play
That physical brand of football that not a lot of teams like they can still do it
They still you know when they have when you have dogs on both sides sides of the ball
When you have a Derek Henry when you have a mark Andrews a Lamar on the offense, right?
As a flowers on the offense Rashad Bateman on the offense, right when you got a Roquan Smith a Kyle Hamilton a Marcus Williams
Adjusting meta bouquet
When you have those type of dogs on your team, you still got Marlon and now you got Nate Wiggins who can run a 4-2 and you
Got TJ Tampa as well. You got you got some dogs on your team, right?
So it's only up from here at this point the level of expectation is at an all-time high for the Ravens
You have to do it. You have to do it. You have to win it all
Now when you look at the Browns the Browns or someone in the same situation
They still have a top five defense is just a matter of how exactly are the is the offense going to work?
right because the offense is still trying to you know
Pick themselves up and sort of you know figure out exactly how do they want to run things as well as you know still develop that
Chemistry with the Sean Watson and you know his receivers and then tight ends and you know whoever else so you know
It's a lot of you know questions up in the air for for the Browns now for
The Steelers reason why I put them at third is because their defense is still you know
You know their defense still plays a major factor in everything that they do
And I do think that they they should be a top 10 maybe top 15
You know run offense. I do think they'll be a little bit more productive per
I can't even speak productive than what they have been the last two years with you know, Matt Canada whatnot
You know and for the bangles, I just don't trust the bangles
I just don't unless they make some one of a blockbuster trade, you know for you know for the defense
I just don't see it. I just don't I just think the bangles at this point
In some ways have become one-dimensional and it's mainly just their offense
And you know if you take away both T Higgins and if you take away Juman Chase, I
Mean what what else do you have not to mention?
You have a rookie right tackle and you know someone like a TJ Y is gonna eat that up
You know that you know that everyone knows that right so bangles fans
You know sucks to be y'all, but I don't I don't think you guys are gonna make it now
Do I think do I think the division is gonna be as competitive as it was last year? Yes
I do think it's gonna come down to the last two or three games. I truly do believe that because again as
As as much as I want to say the Ravens are you know the clear-cut, you know divisional winners
It's still anybody's division. It still is
Okay, you still got you know the Browns are still in you still got the Steelers that you know can be a thorn in people's sides
Especially late into the season and it's a lot. It's a lot. It's a lot folks. It really is now
I want to do something a little bit different, you know as I have you know elevated my status to Bagrow Domus
Yes, that is the name of this of this episode Bagrow Domus
This is my predictions, you know moving forward. So I
Do think Brandon I you does get traded?
Fairly soon
Especially with with things coming out especially with you know Adam Schefter tweeting out this morning
Basically saying that you know the 49ers have given brand on Ewek and his agent permission to talk to other teams to facilitate a trade
You know would sort of speed things up a little bit more. Okay?
Now the question is where does he go to now? Do I think do I think he would go to the Patriots? No, I don't think that
Do I think he probably would go to the Browns?
possibly
But I don't think the Browns can pay him the money that he wants right because and
And you know what? I won't even report on that because I don't know if it's credible or not
But it's just it's a it's a very rocky situation right now because his options are very limited and
You know the 49ers are looking for for resources
Resources that can help them win a Super Bowl this year not next year not two years from now, but this year right?
And so the question is
Where is he gonna go? If it's me personally, I still feel like he's probably want to go to the Steelers. Unfortunately
I
Don't know what they're gonna give up in return, but I do think something is gonna get done with them
I just truly believe that
I think he's probably gonna ink a four-year 125 point eight million dollar deal
Which would be around 31 point 45 million a year or a four-year
119 point eight million dollar deal, which would be twenty nine point ninety five million a year, right now moving on for CD
Lam I do think CD Lam either signs an extension or he's just gonna play the rest of this season now and just hit free agency next year
And if he does an extension my prediction is a four-year
132 point four million dollar deal, which would be thirty three point one million a year
Now for for that situation
I just feel like you know, I think I think the Cowboys are gonna try to lock up, you know
Both Dak and CD Lam
I think what I think what's gonna make things a little bit difficult is from Micah Parsons
Because the past restaurant market is all is stupid stupid high right now. So I
Don't I don't I think Jerry will try I think he's gonna try his hardest to try to get all three of them done
But if he can only get two of them done and it's you know CD Lam and Dak Prescott
I don't think he don't think he's you know probably gonna trip over it honestly
Now Jamar Chase, I do I do think the Bengals are gonna lock him up
I do think it's it's gonna it's gonna be somewhat of a
You know dragged out type of situation, but I do think a deal will get done
Eventually, I just truly do but it's gonna come at the cost of T Higgins, you know walking and hitting free agency
that that's just what it is at this point because I think the bangles realize that they can't pay, you know
30 plus million dollars to two receivers and then play and then not play but pay 55 plus million to their quarterback
I just don't see it honestly
So, you know, it's it's a lot. It's a lot of moving pieces
Do I think things could possibly change? Maybe a deal could get gun? I mean could get I can't speak
Maybe a deal could get done for the both of them and it keeps that core, you know together
There's a possibility, you know anything can can happen
But I just don't think T Higgins is it I don't think he wants to stay with that team no more
I think he wants to go have a clean start somewhere else honestly
Really honestly speaking here. I would not be surprised if they get into a situation
Where T Higgins wants to be traded before the trade deadline this season
I would not be surprised you heard that first from your back row Domus on this episode
