Aren't y'all tired? No chemistry which was just ride. We actually that this is the Touchdowntown. Your week we Spot our NFL takes the topic of tan engines and context for the coach coaching so. Because you never know, but either way Away had. The touchdowns down. What's up? Good people? Touchdowns and tangents here Hawthorne, California. Your Thursday Night Spot for NFL takes topical tangents for the culture. Ir n P d cam Rio. I'm Kimmith Barry. And it's a big week this week, lots of news. NFL free agency got started. Sleep I'm surprised that the amount of money certain team spent, but really I'm just happy the Raiders haven't like jumped the shark, Like that's that's such news that the Raiders didn't overspend in free agency. Like, I'm it's actually kind of reassuring. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I think it's good that they didn't just throw money away. But also, I mean, I would have liked to see them sign one or two marquee guys, but I guess Gino qualifies as one that was a great trend. Presumably if they, you know, trade for Tyreek Hill or signed Cooper Cup. I mean that's two. I guess there's still some linement out there they could get. But all in all, I thought it. Was interesting the Raiders basically let like four key rotation, no starters go, and they pretty much replaced them with guys who are very similar but probably better athletes. So I think that was kind of interesting for me. Yeah, Like, I mean, Master kind of caught me off guard, but not off guard at the same time, like it made sense. But I was just like, really, I. Mean, it's kind of like Madison, He's just good enough to get you there. The offense isn't gonna be. There's so many good running backs in this class, though, so I'm not really worried about it. I don't expect him to start. I think you do need at least one veteran in the group, and it might as well be mostered or not you know who shall not be named. And we're white. No Brandon Balden. Jeez, he's not on the roster anymore. He's not in the league anymore. Yeah, yeah, man, But overall, I mean I'd give the Raiders public a B minus. Yeah, here's why. They got a quarterback and now the six overall pick for them is one of the most valuable picks in the draft for sure, because what if you're the Rams and you're like, we'll get your door and sit them. I just don't like the fact that they paid double digits for Adam Butler and Malcolm Coons. Those were bad signings to me. I wouldn't say they're bad signings just because that's kind of where the market was a lot of guys at that cover were. Kind of getting, you know, double digits like that. Jonathan Allen was available for the Vikings. I mean, I don't I didn't expect Nate Hobbs to get twelve million for four years. That was crazy. I mean I expected Mowering to cash out, so that wasn't that surprising. You know, I expected Spillane to cash out, so that wasn't surprising. But you got a guy like Nick Hobbs was finished on r R the last three years, making you know, twelve million over four years like that. To me, it's just signaled that, Okay, the market, the money's out there, whether you've been hurt or not. And so then I think that at least rationalized it in my head for Coons and then seeing what Poon before got, seeing what Jared Reed got. Made it made you smile when you saw get the deal. But seeing the seeing where that that nose tackle d tackle market is, you know, it made sense. Butler got what he got. I mean he's improved the last two years. You know, he's Christian Wilkins guy. They've played together for I think they play together in Miami too for a little bit, so you know, you keep the core group together. I get basically what I'm saying is I get the numbers. I just don't like them. Is he gonna start Butler? Yes, I mean he started the last two years. I'm starter, not because either or Wilson is starting and already Why would you ever got twelve million?...
