Double breaking news, double breaking news, double
breaking news, folks. That's right. I know I
said I was supposed to be taking a break. I understand
that. But guess what? We have some things that
we have to talk about, all right? Jair Alexander
and Jermaine Pratt get released. So we have to
talk about which teams will work for Jermaine
Pratt, as well as for Jair Alexander, the financials
for both teams, as well as how does the Jair
Alexander situation affect Jalen Ramsey's situation,
all right? All of this and more on the 86. second
episode of the Football Junkies podcast, all
right? I am your host with the most. I am your
chief bag roll domus. I am your chief head of
the table. Anything and everything related to
the bag, conspiracy theories, trade, you name
it, we cover it over here at the Football Junkies
podcast. I am your GM who currently is not on
a team right now, but don't you worry about it
because you know why? I'm still being fed with
a whole bunch of information, information that
I cannot release to you because if I do, I might
lose my credibility and my sources. But guess
what? I am all these things and more. But most
importantly, the most important thing that you
must remember is I am your host, Kale. So you
already know how these things are about to go.
So guess what? On three. One, two, three. Let's
lock in. right folks let's just get into the
meat and potatoes of everything that is going
on in the league right now so before we get into
the gyre alexander talk let's talk about jermaine
pratt so jermaine pratt has been released today
better yet i think it just happened maybe about
five or ten minutes ago prior to this recording
so let's just get into everything so to start
things off jermaine pratt requested to trade
for the bangles a long time ago From him requesting
a trade up until now, there has been no information
or no progress of a resolution for that entire
situation until now. Now, when we look at the
financials for this entire move, the Bengals
save $5 .6 million in cash space and take on
$2 .3 million in dead cap. His market value,
according to SpotRack, is two years, $17 .9 million,
which is $9 million a year. Here's the thing.
When you look at his 2023 and 2024 season combined,
not separate, but combined, 143 solo tackles,
two sacks, four forced fumbles, say that three
times, nine pass deflections, two fumble recoveries,
four interceptions, and 12 tackles for loss.
He's been a really productive inside linebacker.
And if we're being real here, two years, 17 .9
million, nine million a year, that's not bad.
That's really not bad at all. So I don't understand
why the Bengals would make this type of move,
but I'm not surprised because why? The Bengals
continue to do bad business. Now, granted, I
understand that you have more superstars on the
offense and Joe Burrow, T. Higgins, and Jamar
Chase. I get that. But you also have to take
care of the defense as well, because if you don't,
guess what's going to happen? You are going to
have to basically outshoot your opponent every
single week, and you won't be able to do that.
Your defense is going to have to make some plays,
and they can't do that if you don't have anybody
there. Now, granted, I understand that they drafted
an inside linebacker in Demetrius Knight, but
you don't know what you're getting out of him.
Jermaine Pratt is proven. He's been proven for
the past few years. On one hand, it's great for
Jermaine Pratt because he's able to go and latch
onto a team before training camp, which is great,
but at the same time, this weakens the Bengals
even more because guess what? You already have
a bad situation with Trey Hendrickson. Now that
you've released Jermaine Pratt, everyone is going
to be looking at you with a side eye because
there are going to be some people on that defense
as well. They're going to be looking for money
too. And guess what? There's no need for them
to go to y 'all because why? Y 'all don't care
about the defense. So at some point, somebody
is going to have to be the bigger person in the
room and say, listen, we have to take people
on both sides of the ball. Do we have to give
them market value? Probably not. Can we try to
at least save a little bit of money? We can try.
But what you cannot do is just let people go
willy -nilly and thinking, oh, okay, well, we'll
sort of self out. No, it doesn't work like that.
That's why you see a lot of people not really
interested in playing for the Bengals because
why? They have had a reputation for a very long
time, prior to probably I was born, of just doing
bad business, a very cheap run organization.
I think the Bengals are so cheap. I guarantee
you if you ask the player, do they charge you
for food? Do they charge you for, I don't know,
getting a new pair of socks? I guarantee you
they'll flip you a bill for it. I wouldn't be
surprised. That's how bad the Bengals have been.
Now, when we look at things from another perspective
of what would be the best situation for Jermaine
Pratt, I can already tell you one team that would
definitely love him, the Colts. And the only
reason why I say that is because his former defensive
coordinator is now the defensive coordinator
for the Colts. So I think if you plug him in,
it's home because he already knows that system.
He's familiar with all the cadences and formations
and all the things that come with the defense.
So I think that would be an instant upgrade for
the inside linebacker position for the Colts.
Now, if you want to take things for a few other
teams, you could possibly put in maybe the Steelers
if they're interested because, you know, division
rival. Maybe he wants to enact his revenge on
the Bengals. Maybe you can go after the Chiefs.
There are a few teams that Jermaine Pratt can
go to. Now, are you going to make a lot of money?
Probably not. But the question is this. Are you
ring chasing or are you bag chasing? And just
looking at the available inside linebackers,
you have C .J. Mosley, Jawan Bentley, Devondre
Campbell, Eric Kendricks, Neville Hewitt, Chris
Barnes, Matthew Adams, Tyler Malkovich, Chandler
Woodland, Chance Campbell, Quan Alexander, Raekwon
McMillan. Like, sure, there are some pretty good
inside linebackers, but you have the advantage
because you're only 29 years old. Whereas C .J.
Mosley, he's 32. Eric Kendricks, he's 33. Neville
Hewitt, he's 32. There's a mixture of old but
somewhat young inside linebackers. So if I'm
Jermaine Pratt, I'm going to take my time, but
I'm not going to be very slow with this decision.
I need to make a list of at least five teams
that I'm interested in right now and start getting
on the phone with them because mandatory minicamp
is this week for a lot of teams, and then everybody
takes a break. And then, you know, training camp
begins. So between now and the start of training
camp, you want to at least be in active contract
talks with at least three teams. Because right
now, this is the perfect time for you to strike.
Now, granted, you may not get as much money as
you probably want, but guess what? If you're
put into a better opportunity where you could
compete and possibly win a ring, who really cares?
Because guess what? Come next offseason, you
can cash in. Now, I'm not saying you're going
to reset the inside linebacker market, but you
can make a pretty decent amount of money. Just
saying. Now, let's get into the part where everybody
wants to talk about, and that is the whole Jair
Alexander situation. So before we get into all
the intangibles, let's talk about what led up
to this. So this started last season. where Jair
was suspended for his conduct, and then he was
able to come back to the team, which then escalates
into trade talks during this offseason prior
to the draft of him possibly going to the Seahawks
or a few different teams. And then that sort
of dies down after the draft, and then it starts
to pick up a little bit, and then it dies down.
So it's going through its highs and lows. And
then ultimately today, actually this morning
specifically, they decided to release Jair Alexander.
So according to Albert Breer, the Packers offered
Jair a reduced one -year deal that would make
him a free agent in 2026, but Jair turned it
down. The team tried trading him during the draft
and were unsuccessful. Now, according to Jordan
Schultz, the Packers and the Bills had trade
talks, but were unsuccessful. Case in point,
that's why the Bills drafted Maxwell Harrison
in the first round. Now, when we look at the
financials that come with this move, The release
leaves dead cap hits of $7 .5 million this year
and then $9 .5 million next year. But it saves
the Packers $17 .1 million this year and $17
.5 million next year. Here's the crazy thing
about this. This is the statement that the GM
of the Packers, Mark Murphy, put out not too
long ago. And I quote, He has been a great player
for us. Obviously elite talent. Unfortunately,
just injured a lot. Unfortunately, that's a big
part of the game, end quote. But here's the part
that may ruffle some feathers, though. End I
quote, we've been used to playing without Alexander.
Now, this comes from pro football talk reporter
Josh Alper. My takeaway from all this information
is the Packers are ready to move on from Jair.
For one reason or the other, they were just ready
to be done with Jair Alexander. And granted,
I understand dealing with a superstar is a lot.
I understand that sometimes it can be draining.
I understand sometimes that if you don't have
the locker room to keep superstars in check,
it can make your life a living hell. But what
you do not do is go public with your statement
and say something like this, because I'm telling
you, you are going to eat your words. There's
not a whole bunch of Jair Alexanders just walking
around. He's a one -of -one type of talent. He's
a playmaking type of talent that you cannot replicate.
There isn't anybody in free agency or available
for a trade or is going to be in next year's
draft class that can replicate what Jair can
do. Granted, I understand that he hasn't been
able to stay healthy for the last two years.
I get that. But some players go through that
phase. It happens. Could their health be because
of attrition? Could it be because of the climate
that they're playing in? It could be a plethora
of different things. But what you don't do is
give up on someone, especially someone like a
Jair Alexander. Let me just read to you a stat
that I found from NFL Pro. So when he is on the
field, opposing quarterbacks threw for seven
touchdowns and eight interceptions, recording
a 77 .5 passer rating. But when Jair Alexander
isn't on the field, quarterbacks threw for 15
touchdowns, 8 picks, and had a 95 .3 passer rating.
Let's go a little bit deeper than that. During
the 2024 season, when Jair was on the field,
the Packers... have allowed a 9 .7 lower completion
percentage, which is 61%, compared to when he's
off the field, which is 70 .7%. I'm sorry. Those
stats right there should already tell you that
this isn't just your ordinary type of corner.
You didn't just pay him just because he had one
or two really good seasons. You paid him as a
franchise corner, and it shows with the stats.
There is nobody on the Packers right now that
can do exactly what Jair Alexander was able to
do. When we look at his stats from the past two
seasons, I'm going to go with 2024 first. 16
tackles. He was targeted 30 times and allowed
17 receptions for 244 yards and two touchdowns.
And in doing so, he got two picks. Now in the
2023 season, He had 27 tackles and was targeted
33 times and allowed 23 receptions for 270 yards
and two touchdowns. The stats speak for themselves,
folks. The stats that I just read showed you
how much of an impact Jair Alexander had on the
field. You're talking about somebody whose effect
is similar to what of a pass rusher, an elite
pass rusher. We've all seen the record of the
Steelers when TJ Watt is on the field and when
he isn't on the field. The best way to describe
this move is the Packers cut their nose to spite
their face. They said, we cannot deal with you
for another moment, for another day, for another
training camp, for another mini camp. We can't
deal with you with anything. We are willing to
just let you go and be somebody. But this is
the price of having a superstar. regardless of
the position on your team. When you have a superstar,
you're going to have to deal with these type
of antics in some capacity. Now, there are some
superstars who are a little bit more humble,
and then there are others who are a little bit
more outspoken, especially when there's a little
bit of discourse between them and the organization.
Let me just read to you the death chart right
now for the Packers when it comes to their corners.
So outside of Jire Alexander, they have Keyshawn
Nixon, Carrington Valentine, Micah Robinson,
Kamal Hayden, Isaiah Dunn, Jonathan Baldwin,
and Tyron Herrick. No disrespect to any of those
men, but they cannot hold a candle to what Jair
Alexander was able to do on the field. Do you
believe in any of those corners can hold their
own against a Justin Jefferson, Amon Ross St.
Brown, Roma Dunzay, DJ Moore, Luther Burden,
Jordan Addison, Jameson Williams? No. So why
would you make this premature move when you don't
have a succession plan in place? It'll be one
thing if you address cornerback one in the draft,
in free agency, via trade, any different type
of way. But you didn't do that. And now you put
yourself in harm's way because guess what? You
are in a division, and I want to continue to
say this, and I will continue to say this until
the cows come home. You are in a division where
you have Justin Jefferson, Roma Dunzey, Jamison
Williams, Amundra St. Brown, Luther Burden, and
DJ Moore. You don't have the corners to be able
to handle those type of receivers. So either
you make a big move now, or you run the possibility
of getting exposed throughout the entire season.
I don't think you really want to do that. Now,
granted, you can go and get someone like a Stephon
Gilmore, you can get Russell Douglas, or you
can get a few other different types of corners.
But can they hold a candle to what Jair Alexander
was able to do for the past few years now? No.
Even as hurt as Jair has been, he is still an
effective corner. He's just going through a phase
where he hasn't been healthy. Some players go
through that. It's perfectly fine. It's not the
end of the world. But what you cannot do is just
say, you know what? We're just willing to move
off of you. We really don't care. Sayonara. We
really don't need you. We were better off without
you. That was the type of vibe that Mark Murphy
was giving off when it came to those quotes.
And if I'm Jair Alexander, I would be so petty
and I would sign with the Vikings. just so I
can lock up all your receivers. And every single
time I lock up a receiver, every time I get a
pick, I'm looking at Mark Murphy's direction.
Now with this move, it does beg the question,
what are the Packers trying to do moving forward?
Now I do know Elton Jenkins isn't happy with
his current contract situation. I know he's looking
for a new contract because I think they're trying
to transition him to center. However, they are
in a really good spot when it comes to their
cap space right now. I'm going to tell you exactly
what their cap space is right now. They have
45 .4 million in cap space. They are fourth in
the league with the most cap space. So what's
the problem? Who are they really going to go
after? What other positions do they need to address
significantly? Now, as we talked about in the
last episode that the Packers were interested
in Rashad Bateman. I wouldn't be surprised if
they were going after another receiver. I wouldn't
be surprised if they're going after another corner.
I wouldn't be surprised if they are trying to
show up something else on this team because they
have a lot of cap space. And just looking at
some of their pending free agents for next year,
you have Christian Watson, Nicole Harbin, John
Fitzpatrick, Malik Willis, Trey Hill, Romeo Dobbs,
Dontavion Wicks, Bo Milton, Emmanuel Wilson,
Messiah Swinson, just to name a few. Now, some
of them are restricted free agents and some of
them are unrestricted free agents. Now, I know
with Romeo Dobbs, his market value is $11 .9
million, according to SpotRap. Before we get
into the whole where he should go, if he should
go to this team or that team, I think the number
one question that needs to be asked is, are you
bag chasing or are you ring chasing? Because
if you're ring chasing, you're probably going
to have to take less. But if you're bag chasing...
you already know which teams you need to go to.
But if you're ring chasing though, now we can
have a real conversation. The first team that
comes to mind is the 49ers. For one, you lost
Javerius Ward in free agency. And two, you have
enough cap space to where if you want to give
him a multi -year deal, you can do that. And
so I think adding Jair Alexander with Diamandou
Lenore and Renardo Green would shore up the backfield
by providing a veteran corner who is proven and
can hold his own against number one wide receivers.
Let's be honest here. They're in a division that
has Marvin Harrison Jr., Devontae Adams, Cooper
Cupp, just to name a few. So I think adding Jair
would definitely help a lot. Now going on to
the next team, I feel like the Eagles would also
be... a good team for Jair simply because, for
one, Cooper Dijon is going back to safety and
you still need another corner along with Quinion
Mitchell. So I think adding him would be great
simply because you'll have two locked down corners
that can hold their own. Who wouldn't want that,
especially for the Eagles? Now, the financial
part, I don't really know about, okay? But I
do know this. Howie should probably have some
level of interest in Jair Alexander. Just saying.
We don't need to go any further with that, okay?
For the next team, Tampa Bay. I think Tampa Bay
should really be interested simply because if
you get Jair Alexander, your defense is complete.
You have Jair Alexander. You have Benjamin Morrison.
You have Antoine Winfield Jr. You still have
Levante David. You have Desmond Watson. You have
Vita Vea, Shaq Barrett, Hassan Reddick on the
defense. And then on the offense, you'll have
Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Emeka Buka. You'll
still have Bucky Irvin. You'll have Baker Mayfield.
You will have a complete team. You will have
a team, by the way, that I would venture to say
would be a Super Bowl caliber team. Because why?
They have been able to beat a lot of the top
NFC teams for the last few years. They've held
their own against the Eagles as well as the Lions.
Just saying. Not to mention, I also have to add
this in there, they have $29 .8 million in cap
space. I think if you give him, I don't know,
a two -year $10 million deal and what, $9 .5
million is guaranteed and he can earn the other
two based off of playtime and incentives and
whatnot, I think that's perfectly fine. Because
again, if I'm Jair Alexander, screw the money.
Go for the ring. Because guess what? If you go
for the ring and you win the ring, guess what's
going to happen? You can go out in free agency
again and get another mega contract. Why wouldn't
you want to do that? Now let's keep on going.
I think Washington should also be interested
in Jair simply because they really haven't effectively
addressed the backfield like how I think they
should have. I think adding Jair with Marshawn
Lattimore would be great. You are talking about
a two -headed monster in the secondary. Not to
mention, especially with those divisional games,
you'll have Marshawn Latimer on CeeDee Lamb and
Jair Alexander on George Pickens or the other
way around, probably the other way around. Who
wouldn't want that? Who wouldn't want to see
that on Sunday night? Come on, folks. Let's keep
this thing going. Now, when we look at the Ravens,
however. I'm calling you. I'm texting you. I'm
DMing you. I'm FaceTiming you. I'm Instagram
calling you. I'm Facebook messaging you. I am
trying to communicate with you as best as I possibly
can. Because you know why? If you do this, your
team is complete. You have Marlon Humphrey, Nate
Wiggins, Jair Alexander. And then you have Kyle
Hamilton, Malachi Starks. Roquan Smith, Trenton
Simpson, then you have the defensive line, and
then when you look over with the offense, you
have Derrick Henry, you'll have Lamar, you'll
have the receivers, you'll have the tight ends.
Why wouldn't you want that? Not to mention, Lamar
is your guy. Come on now, we're connecting the
pieces. We're connecting the pieces. Here's another
team that I feel like should definitely be interested,
and that is the Vikings. For one, the cap space
may be a little bit funky with 20 .6 million.
But who cares? Because guess what? If you get
him and you pair him with everybody else on this
defense, chaos. Absolute chaos. Not to mention,
you're still in your division. You can go up
against the Packers twice. Two times you can
go and make big plays against the Packers. And
every single time you make a big play, you can
point in Mark Murphy's direction. Who wouldn't
want to see that? Who wouldn't want to do that?
Just saying. Yes, I love chaos, all right? I
love revenge games. I love when players enact
their revenge against their old team. It's the
greatest thing to see. Now, if I'm the Chiefs,
however, I may have to move some money around
because we only have 11 .2 million in cap space,
but I think pairing Jair with Trent McDuffie
would be great. Not to mention, your division
got a lot more difficult. The Chargers are a
legitimate threat. The Raiders, you can't sleep
on. And the Broncos are going to give you a run
for your money. So I would pick up the phone
and I would probably inquire about Jair Alexander.
Another team that I think that definitely needs
to be talked about is the Rams. Granted, they
only have $20 .1 million in cash space, but they
do need to address the secondary. And I do know
that there is legitimate interest between them
and Jalen Ramsey. But if I'm the GM, why would
I give up future assets when I can just sign
somebody who's a free agent? You can give Jair
a two -year, $10 million deal. You can give him
a one -year, $5 million deal. You can give him
the vet minimum if you really wanted to, but
you have to address the secondary with a veteran
-proven corner. Now, granted, they do have Akela
Weatherspoon, but I mean, this is Jair Alexander
we're talking about, and this is no disrespect
to Akela because I actually like Akela Weatherspoon,
but come on now. Jair Alexander, Akela Weatherspoon
with that defensive line and that offense, greatness.
absolute greatness. The final team that I will
talk about just so I can ruffle feathers with
this fan base is the Steelers. I've seen a lot
of people that are saying, why would the Steelers
want to go after Jair Alexander? Because you
only have two corners that you can rely on right
now. Outside of those two corners, there is nobody
else that you can rely on. So why wouldn't you
want to make a move and shoring up the secondary
even more by getting a proven talent in Jair
Alexander? Because let's be real here. God forbid
if anything crazy happens to Darius Slade or
Joey Porter Jr., you're going to be right where
you have been for the past five plus years, which
is guess what? Trying to nickel and dime and
piecemeal the secondary, which you don't want
to do. And not to mention, this would address
corner after this season, which we all know that
most likely Darius Slay is going to retire after
this season. There's probably a few more teams
that comes to mind, but those are the main teams
that if I'm their GM, I am seriously inquiring
about Jair Alexander just because there's a lot
of upside to his game. And by doing so, that
would instantly be an upgrade for your secondary,
which you really do need. And I already know
there are people that are saying, well, he has
attitude issues and that might be a problem.
Well, let me ask you something. If you can deal
with attitude issues with a running back or wide
receiver or tight end or pass rusher or inside
linebacker or another corner or any other position
on your team, then you can deal with someone
like a Jair Alexander. And the number one way
to deal with someone like a Jair Alexander. is
you have to have a locker room structure that
is able to deal with their personalities. Case
in point, the Eagles. The Eagles have a lot of
personality in their locker room, but you know
what? They have structure in that locker room
that is able to negate the personalities. If
I was to put on my back row Donner's hat, my
guess is he will come to a decision fairly soon.
Now, am I saying that's gonna be by the end of
this week? No. Do I think it's probably gonna
be a two or three week decision? Most likely.
I think before training camp for a lot of teams,
he will have come to a decision because you don't
want to miss training camp. You want to try to
put as much time in with your team so that you
are able to develop a lot of chemistry with everybody
and you understand the system. Now on to the
final topic that we have to talk about is how
will this move affect Jalen Ramsey's situation?
As we all know, Jalen Ramsey is still trying
to find a way out of Miami. So far, there hasn't
been no resolution. I do know Ian Rappaport said
yesterday that the team has already informed
Jalen Ramsey that he doesn't have to attend mandatory
minicamp, which is significant because every
team wants their players to attend mandatory
minicamp, even though it's only just for three
days. So when we look at the contract for Jalen
Ramsey, his cap hit this year is $16 .6 million.
Next year is $25 million. The year after that,
it's $26 .8 million. And the year after that,
it's $36 .1 million. His dead cap hits, though,
are $49 .4 million, $18 .4 million, $11 .7 million,
and $4 .9 million. If I'm Jalen Ramsey, I am
calling the front office and I'm trying to have
a meeting as soon as possible because I want
this thing to be resolved. Because right now,
Jire Alexander is the number one free agent available.
And so... The longer that his situation goes
out, the worse it's going to be for you because
you know why? All the teams that were interested
in Jalen Ramsey are now going to shift their
attention to Jair Alexander because why? That
could be a more cheaper option than just giving
up future assets for Jalen Ramsey. Let's be real
here, folks. The Dolphins are going to have to
take this contract on the chin because this is
a bad structured contract. And nobody is going
to be willing to give up high enough compensation
in order to negate any guarantees or any large
cap hits that they're going to have to take on.
So either you just do a buyout for Jalen Ramsey,
you release him, you have to figure out some
common ground between you and Jalen Ramsey to
just end this. Because right now, you don't want
this story to continue to linger into training
camp. You want this to be resolved ASAP. At some
point, someone's going to have to be the adult.
Someone's going to have to be the bigger person,
come together and try to figure out the best
solution for both sides. Because right now, the
longer that this draws out, the more it favors
a team that is interested in trading for Jalen
Ramsey. Because right now, if you're the Dolphins,
you can't ask for a first, a second, a third
or fourth. At best, you could probably get maybe
a conditional fifth that may turn into a fourth
based off of certain incentives. But most likely,
you'll probably be taking on maybe a fifth or
sixth round pick. Or better yet, just do a player
swap. But this is what happens when you do bad
contracts. And I understand that you needed to
do what you had to do in order to facilitate
the trade for Jalen Ramsey. But still, look what
it puts you in. It's the same thing with Tyreek
Hill. And I know I said this in the previous
episode, but I'm going to say it again. You gave
those two players unnecessary extensions. And
now look. you have two contracts that no one
is going to want to inherit But the Dolphins
have been doing bad business for I don't know
how long. But I'm going to end this episode here.
