00:00Last night, watching the Bears, watching Jeffrey Simmons, it all came to me, Joe.
00:05It all became crystal clear to me.
00:07Do you know why the Bills fans are so hungry for Brandon Bean to make a move this year?
00:14And why?
00:15We got calls yesterday about who?
00:17Let's run through it.
00:18Devontae Smith?
00:20Garrett Wilson?
00:22Of course, there's your Buda Bakers.
00:24Miles Garrett over the years.
00:26Start naming some players.
00:27And when we do this and I say, all right, who do you want?
00:30Let's talk trade deadline.
00:31We will get names across the board.
00:33We'll get safeties, linebackers, maybe edge rushers.
00:36Maybe you'll get a couple receivers.
00:38I can't think of any other positions you might get the occasion.
00:41Max Crosby came up.
00:42Okay, Max Crosby.
00:43Just because he's like, I don't think edge rusher would come up otherwise.
00:46And the reason I feel like it's coming up now, even absent of a real big name target.
00:54Last year, we were talking receiver.
00:57We talked Brian Thomas Jr. and Jalen Waddell right around the deadline.
01:01I remember where I was when I heard the Bills turn that down.
01:04I was in Columbus, Ohio, listening to the radio hearing talk about what they said no to Jalen Waddell.
01:09Yeah.
01:10This team that needs a receiver.
01:11Anyway, they couldn't get it done.
01:13Maybe it's in the division.
01:14Anyway, my point is this, though.
01:15When the Rams make those bleep them picks trades, that's always under the context or in the context of, well,
01:23their quarterback's about to retire.
01:25They have to do this.
01:27They have to get desperate.
01:28And then there are the Bears, whose quarterback is in what year of his prime?
01:34One?
01:36Is it year one?
01:37Yeah, year one.
01:38Are we even at year one?
01:41If his trajectory continues, is his prime start next year?
01:45Right?
01:46They are ground floor.
01:48And they went with a two first-round pick trade for Jeffrey Simmons.
01:52So I've got the old guy GM and the young guy GM.
01:56Both went two first-round picks for a guy to try to win a Super Bowl.
02:00It's not going well for the Rams because Miles Garrett's hurt.
02:02But they've done it before.
02:04I mean, they did it for Stafford himself.
02:06Anyway, I think my thesis statement on this here, and then if anybody wants to call in on this, is
02:13this.
02:15There's an undeniable hunger for Bills fans for the GM to do something potentially big.
02:19And I wonder, and by wonder I'm telling you I think a lot of that feeling is that one window
02:24to have done it has already passed.
02:26And just like the Bills making the Super Bowl itself, it feels overdue and fans feel desperate for it.
