00:00I want to get on Jeffrey Simmons here and the idea for the Bills.
00:06So, is it possible to make a case while not having anyone to make a case for?
00:11And what I mean is, should the Bills trade two first-round picks for a player to try to win
00:15the Super Bowl?
00:16Yes.
00:18I don't know who that is right now, so maybe this isn't the year to do it.
00:22I don't see this idea for them yet.
00:25Could they go get Buda Baker or Zach Bond?
00:27Sure.
00:28It's just kind of funny because in the NFL, the trade deadline, this has become, things have picked up quite
00:33a bit, Joe, right?
00:34Where in the last five, ten years, there are more trades at the deadline than there used to be.
00:39When we grew up, when I was a kid, there were not NFL trades.
00:41Now there's a lot.
00:42So, Jeffrey Simmons for two first-round picks.
00:47The stamp I want to put on the piece of paper, the loudest thing, the thing that my takeaway from
00:52today and everything going forward is,
00:53in no world should Bills fans or people that analyze the Bills look at the history of trades like that
01:01as some sort of context on whether or not it's a good idea.
01:06The same way that Joe Brady, being a first-time head coach, should not have been included with, well, here
01:15are the percentage of first-year head coaches that make the playoffs.
01:18No, no, no, no, no.
01:20These things don't happen in a vacuum.
01:22If the Bills spent two first-round picks on a player to shore up their defense the way that the
01:28Colts did, those are not the same things.
01:31You live in a different world.
01:33This is the same as when the Bills have the ninth-ranked offense, and I think that's terrible.
01:39That means the guys you're ahead of are not good.
01:42You're supposed to be in the top three.
01:44The standard here should be to win a Super Bowl and to break through the proverbial wall.
01:50They fired a coach to do it.
01:51They hired a first-year head coach.
01:52He's off to a great start.
01:54Is he the best of the young coaches?
01:56I have no idea.
01:57I know that he has Josh Allen, and that is built in.
02:01And I think when people get upset with the idea that Brandon Bean has not swung for the fences,
02:06it's because being careful and cautious and just keeping your picks, that's for lame teams.
