00:00I mentioned it in the intro, you flipped the NFL upside down when you completed that trade
00:05for Miles Garrett. It was one of those holy cow wow moments. Take us through how the conversations
00:11got started and eventually how the deal got done. Well, that was, you know, it was, that was a pretty
00:17long journey for an offseason. I'm trying to, the timeline now, sometime before the draft,
00:24I do remember reaching out to Andrew and we had had discussions earlier in the offseason because
00:31the Cleveland Browns had interviewed one of our coaches, Nate Schilhaus. So kind of when you're
00:37used to chatting with a GM, you kind of get that rapport. It's, you know, you get comfortable.
00:44So, but we were talking about something, brought it up. At that point in time, you knew it was a
00:49possibility. It's almost like he's a starting pitcher that can close, but let's just say we
00:54have a one score lead or something like that. That's usually when these type of players,
01:00right, make like really, really make their impact felt. If I kept it simple, a lot of times it's
01:07like playing with 12 players instead of 11. When you add someone, if we call it changing the math,
01:13oh man, they got to prepare for 12 defenders now, maybe even 12 and a half with someone like this
01:18player. But oh, by the way, when you're in that, you know, let's call it four minutes to two minutes
01:22to
01:22go. You have a lead, you'd like to protect the lead and you get that big sack. I think the
01:26analytics
01:26would say all of a sudden you get a team in the, in the second and 18, there's a good
01:31chance you're
01:31going to get them off the field and maybe close the game out and win more than you lose.
