On today’s episode, Jaylen Waddle traded to the Broncos for a slew of picks. Broncos in win now mode? Dolphins stacking picks for the rebuild? Could Devon Achane be on the move? Along with this the Vikings bring back a veteran QB, and the Browns and Steelers propose rule changes. Chris Costich, Justin Tucker, and CJ Medeiros talk all this and more!

On today's episode of the Fumble Ruski podcast, another trade hits the NFL landscape, Dolphins trading, Gieland Waddle for some picks for this upcoming draft. Carson Wendz going back to the Vikings and a rule change proposition from the Cleveland Browns. It's a late one today. It's the offseason. What are you going to expect? This is the Fulmarusky podcast. It may not have always showed it in the stat sheet, but you can see him making

throws when he needs to make the throws. Back-to-back games where he has three times. touchdowns. Someone's got to get that six or seven spot. He's an elite wide receiver as a rookie. Truly a lose-lose scenario for both sides. Welcome to the Fulm-Buriski podcast by Power 88 Dean Radio in Secret Weapon Consulting. We got CJ, we got tuck. We got myself, Chris.

Glad for you to join us for this Friday episode. Hopefully you're watching this early enough in the morning where you could still watch in March Madness or maybe you're listening to us while you're watching March Madness. I'm recording this or we're recording this while March Madness is going on right now. Currently got the TV on BYU and Texas watching Brockton legend A.J. DeBanza. How's you guys brackets looking? Did you guys make brackets? No, I did not this year. This one, this one, not this year. How? How?

I didn't make a bracket either. I just don't know ball. I don't know college ball. You don't need a no college ball to make a bracket. My girlfriend definitely doesn't know ball like that. She still makes a bracket. Well, last time I checked, this was still a free country. Hey, you know what, fair enough. I'm happy to report that my bracket is currently perfect,

but we'll see how that changes because this BYU, Texas game has me a little scared. Man, you're telling Texas A&M has got a lead on St. Mary's. North Carolina's looking good. but, I, and it's funny because I was texting my friends right before I was like, God,

I fucking hate my bracket. What am I, I don't know what I'm doing. Like, I don't know why I've Yukon winning at all. Like, doesn't feel right. And then all of a sudden,

like, I'm perfect going into it tonight. And I'm just like, all right. Still, still two days, a round of 32 or round of 64 to go. We'll see what looks like on Saturday.

But, yeah. I'm happy to say I got the high point game correct, of course. But anyways, breaking news from right after we recorded, Jalen Waddle traded to the Broncos. Dolphins in return get a first round pick, a third round pick, and a fourth round pick. They basically actually just swapped fourth round picks.

But, yeah, dolphins now have the, now have two first round picks, which we were kind of talking about this. at least when Max Crosby was initially traded to the Ravens. A lot of teams that have multiple first round picks right now. And, you know, I'm doing that thing again that I love to do where I'm talking about it, but I don't have the actual thing up in front of me to actually go off of. It's pretty nice, right?

So dolphins now have the 11th in the 30th overall pick. because of it. The Chiefs have two first-round picks as well. The 9th and the 29th. The Jets have two first-round picks as well. Cowboys have two first-round picks. I'm just double-checking the Cowboys. Yeah, Cowboys have two first-round picks.

There's a numerous amount of teams that have first-round picks now. So this is a very interesting draft. Broncos. We'll start with that first. And then we'll get into the Dolphins. But I think on the Broncos side, I mean, I think you're in a position where you can be in a win now spot or act like you're in a win now spot, especially when you have Bo Necks still on his rookie contract, see where he got last year. One game away from the Super Bowl, defense was nails. Offense was kind of up and down, say the least.

And Bo Nix, you know, as much as we shit on him, he's still a damn good quarterback. So build around them, build what you have off of what you have right now with the fact that you're not paying Boen next a ton of money. So this is a good move. Now, unload it a little bit. No first or third round pick or like I said, fourth round pick swap. But, you know, it's going to have to be worth it at the end of the day. Thoughts? Let me, I think this is a good for both teams.

Bo Nix gets the wide receiver he needs along with Gordon's sudden. I still think they need something in the running game. That's just me personally. They need to address that quick fast and in a hurry. Well, sorry, I'll let you finish. Let's skip to the Broncos first. I am talking about the Broncos. No, I meant like, don't talk about the Dolphins just yet.

I didn't talk about the Dolphins. I know, I know. I just wanted to make sure you're not about it. Okay, okay. But I think the Broncos are clearly more of a contender now because they have more weapons and they have more things on the offensive side and that defense is studded all around, even though they need to fill the linebacker spot next to a single thing because Dr. Greenlaw is gone, which I think they'll find through the draft.

But, oh, no, this is a very, very good team that just got stuck. Stop short last year due to an inter quarterback and the fall-round back quarterback play. And they didn't have bone necks. So if they can fix the running game, if they can fix the quarterback play, which they will when they get bone-necks back. I think this team can be very dangerous. And we'll see what happens from here. I think that they could be in contention for the first team like they were last year.

And, yeah, good job on the Broncos. Z.J. Well, I know their fan base is happy. Denver was, I think, the one team that hadn't brought in an external player to that point via by trade or free agency. This has been a weirdly quiet offseason for them. And honestly, if anything, this is the offseason where you've got to go all in, you know? Bo Nix is on his rookie deal. Like, you have to make noise.

And they just kind of haven't. And this Waddle trade, I don't. Now, I'm not going to lie, it's a bit of an overpay. This, you could tell, was really more of a desperation move, but it's huge. Now you're going to get Bo Nicks back healthy. Corlin Sutton doesn't have to do it all by himself. Defense is great. The line's solid.

Running game's a bit iffy, but like you said, you know, you can address that in the draft, especially the second round, you know. Maybe Jonah Coleman or Judarian Price fall to you. but yeah but you know losing your first and your third though for Jalen Waddle that's you know and that pick swap

I don't know I'm not going to lie to you I am a little iffy on that but but honestly it's one of those things where your on-field production will be better and even still for Denver now that you're going to have a healthy Knicks and now he has a weapon

a weapon that will free up his other weapons, I might add, depending on where they go in the draft and who they take, I'm not going to lie, the excuses for Denver, unless Nix gets injured again, they just really aren't a thing, you know? For Bo Nix, I'm going to need to see more. I know you'd say, oh, well, he's good, even though we, you know, like the shit on him, supposedly.

But for Nix next season, I need him to throw over 4,000 yards and I need him to get over 30 touchdowns. I think that's reasonable. Over 4. I think 3800 is reasonable. No, 4. Like, if you want to be an elite, 4.4,000. Oh, you think you want him to become elite. Yeah. No, I do.

Guys, you're the three. Like, there's, now that you have Jalen Waddle alongside Cortland Sutton and Troy Franklin coming back and all them. and with that line that features guys like Garrett Bowles and Quinn Miners and Mike McGlinchie, there is no reason for you not to be elite anymore. I agree with that. I mean, especially with who he has to throw to. I mean, Evan Ingram is a tight end as well.

He should get 4,000, 35 touchdowns. 4,000 yards, 35 touchdowns I feel like isn't too much to ask. It's really not. Because Jalen Waddle is very much a thousand yard guy. Same with Coral and Sutton. I see it. First thing, health is a major thing. Oh, yeah.

Bo Nix and Jalen Waddle can stay healthy than I can see it. But I'm not expecting it. I do expect like 35 touchdowns, but I'm not saying 4,000 yards. Because for some reason, I'm expecting the running game to get better. I'm not sure in what format. I feel like the running game is fine right. Like they just signed J.K. Dobbins back, which yeah, he's got an injury problem.

But R.J. Harvey had a solid rookie season. He could very much be like, end up being the lead back by midway through the year. We say that. And then we saw what happened to the running game last year in the playoffs. Are you really trusting the running game, not for the regular season, but for what you need it to do in the playoffs? Because there's going to be sometimes where you're going to need that running game to sustain drives. because Bo Nix can't do it by himself yet. Well, maybe this is the year that they're able to.

I'm glad you're optimistic in a Sean Payton running game, but he doesn't have Mark Ingram or Alvin Camero. That is not what he's working with. And I'm not sure he has the guards that he had in New Orleans. But we'll see. G.J., want to respond any of that? No, no, once again, the running game is true. And honestly, I just, unless he breaks out of this year,

I don't really see Harvey as a one. I think this could be a breakout year. Like, I don't know. Like, he's, I guess I'm the only one vouching for him because I'm an RJ Harvey fancy owner. Oh, and you would die as good. That don't care.

That makes sense. It does, like, yeah, but like, I don't know, like, I think he's trash. No, I think he's good, but I think he's, uh, his ceiling is a high. level two. Okay, and you can win with that. You can win with a guy that doesn't always get 100 yards.

No, that's cool, but like, where was he in the playoffs? He disappeared. That's what I'm saying. All right. That was year one. Okay. And? Let's say it's year one.

He hasn't fully acclimated to the NFL yet. That's what I'm saying. That's a year two. If you really want to push this agenda of RJ Harvey, if you really not I'm not going to stand I'm not going to stand on the soapbox like that at this rate like is that it is right the five games will be healthy for yeah well that's what I mean is that RJ Harvey only had the starting spot for probably like a quarter to half of the season something like that yeah well I don't know let's do it happens don't want to get too high

on the soapbox over it but anyways to the dolphins now If you're the dolphins, I mean, you're doing what any shit team should do. And, you know, and it's just reload and get some draft capital. Well, now you have two first round picks for this year along with a third. So, I mean, I'd say it's first year of a rebuild. I think you've set yourself up in a pretty solid spot. Yes, but they still have more things to do. I'm not sure if they're going to get rid of Devon H.N., but I think he should be on the market because if they're really trying to tear it down and do a true rebuild, I don't think you want to keep the running back around for as long as you want, considering by the time the team gets good again, which is in like two, three years, he might be treading.

He might be, you know. Honestly, I love that. No, Tuck, I actually love that take. I actually do. Because I think the Eagles proved that, like, you look at all these great teams, not to cut you off from your take. No problem. Like, we've seen so, like, all these bad teams, right, that have good running backs. Like, they're wasting them away.

And, like, really, you should, like, you should be doing what the Eagles do where you are on the cusp of a Super Bowl. You are right there. You just need, you just need a running back. They went and got Seekwant. like I feel like I don't think you should be worrying about getting a running back right away you should be worrying about getting a running back once your team is right there yes that makes sense it makes sense but occasionally you'll have like once in a generation type guys like Sequin like Todd Gurley like Ladani and Thomas the guys that you can't really just pass up one because of how big of a weapon they are no 100% And they might have one this year, and Jeremiah love, depending on who you ask, but everyone knows he's going first round. It's just where you think he's going. But I'm starting to be able to consensus that even though the running back may be fine, the team may not be able to go anywhere just due to the way the league is and how pass-heavy dependent it is.

So I think maybe in time that high-end running backs aren't going to be franchise tagged as much. and sooner or later, they will go to teams that actually are willing to contend for a Super Bowl. And so hopefully this ends the trend of trying to franchise tag running back as long as they can. And then hopefully they're allowed to leave quicker so they can actually get value for the position. And who knows, maybe they can actually contend to win while the other teams can actually get some draft picks for their troubles and for what the running back was able to do for their team. So I'm not sure if they're going to get rid of Devon H.N. I think they should just to get more draft pieces and maybe draft a running back later on. But I don't know because I find it interesting that he's still there right now.

But we'll see. He might be trading on draft night. He might. But I'm, I think this is good for the dolphins in the long term, but short term, they're going to be ass. Like, hard. This is going to be like, this is going to be like watching the tank for two a year. Not even that because they, believe it or not, they weren't that bad. Because they, even though they had Ryan Fitzpatrick as the quarterback, they still beat the Patriots.

Last game of the season. Yeah, they overperformed like at the end and it screwed them. Yeah, that game still pissed. That happened on my birthday. Either or they were either going to get to a Justin Herbert or Joe Burrow. Either or they did fine. But you knew they were going to play up to snuff of the Patriots because they always do. that at the worst possible times for both teams.

Yeah. True. That game suddenly be so angry, too. I remember they were about to get them off the field on that final long drive, and then there was a really tiki-tack call that saved their ass. You know what I'm talking about, right? That bogus PI where it was like an unquettable ball. That shit piss me out to this day.

But either way. But for Miami, it's not even about should they trade H.N. The thing is, how much do you like him? Because you know that saying about it how if you'll really love something, you'll let it go. It's that. But with Achan, like, if you really value him as a player and as a person, like, actually do write by him and say, we want to send you to somewhere where, you know, your talent won't be wasted. You know? What if he wants to say?

And they keep saying, oh, he's not up to be traded. We don't want to. It's like, okay, but like, why? I mean, look, I'm not going to lie. I actually know why. Because you need someone to put butts in seats. You absolutely need that. Yeah.

But on the flip side, why? Like, you're not going to be doing anything. Like I said, do right by him and let him go to, you know, a good team. And, you know, you can probably get at least the first for him, even though he's a running back. Like, he's really good as a runner and receiver. he's like every time he touches the ball he's a threat to go to the house so so it's not just that but they're really setting head coach jeffley and quarterback malick willis up for failure unless they're saying that happily all right we want you to be our rebuild guy and we trust you we're going to

give you chances and stuff but like i don't know it doesn't seem to be how the team works anymore and uh part of the issue here and this is something that I mean is why the hell did you give Malik Willis that much money and they gave him over $60 million of the span of three years which I know isn't much for a quarterback

but you're giving a career backup that much money I need you to be I need to be clear here and on top of that you have the most dead cap for a team over the next two years, I think, in, like, NFL history. So why, I guess is my question? Just like, so why give Malik Willis that money? Like, why are you paying him like a guy who, I won't say they're giving him franchise quarterback money, but they're giving him QB1 money just to be a tank commander?

I, I'm very confused. Yeah, I mean, that's the suck tax, though, right? Got to overpay sometimes. Okay, but still, why? No, I know. You already know that I just, maybe it's me and it very well could be. I just don't see what most people see in him. I was nowhere near as bullish on Malik Willis' ability as nearly anyone else.

but still why give him all that money just when you're actively tanking for his replacement? Because it's better to have a solid backup quarterback for when you have an inevitable franchise quarterback and then they get injured. At least you have somebody on the roster that can play the quarterback position. So, I mean, I understand. You need a solid backup quarterback, a $67 million backup quarterback. or however what the market the quarterback position has it doesn't sound that outrageous okay but I mean I understand but what other backup quarterback is being paid that much money no one at this moment in time but really close is a starter right now yeah for now but he's not the future though but you're paying him like he is

I think this is more like it see what he can do type of thing Well, because it's a lack of direction. If it's a see what he can do, then are you really tanking? Throw queen ewers out there. No, because I don't think he would be able to sell tickets, and I don't think anyone will buy tickets if he was the quarterback. Well, skill issue. Well, there's the thing with Willis' contract.

It's very loaded in the middle. He's only making 1.2 this season. Year 2, he's making 21.5. year three is making 20.5 after year three they have a potential out or a potential out year two

13.371 and dead cap and yeah so if they got to like his final year it's still be like it's still be about 12 mil 15 mil I'm not doing the math right now

but that's what it would look like or 19 mil actually now that I am looking at the number. But back to H.N. Real quick, though. This is the last year on his rookie contract. And looking right now. So I can be trying to trade them.

Dolphins, H.N. Not available for trade as of yesterday. According to ESPN, that's what sources said. I don't get it. But if he said, they say he's not available, he's not available. Yeah. I just can imagine him on other teams. Can you imagine him in like Tampa Bay with, that running game with him especially

because he's a home run hitter? That'd be good with Baker and that whole group. Yeah, according to this article, it seems that A. Chan is expected to be the centerpiece of Miami's New Look offense under first year coordinator Bobby Sloick. Oh, yeah, and Bobby Sloak's there, O.C. Yeah, it's over. You're cook. Yeah. Not to say Devon A-chan isn't good, but with the weapons that are surrounding A-chan, yeah, he'll see seven, eight people in that box.

Oh, yeah, 100%. Anything else we want to touch on from either the dolphins or the Broncos? No, not really. All right. The dolphins are less in camp space right now. I believe it. still? Yeah, they're in the negative.

They're still seven in the red. We'll figure it out more, you know. Yeah, they'll just. I mean, they still have, they still have the June 1st cuts of Tua and, too is going already, isn't he? He's technically still there. It's not until June 1st where it's like,

because all this has to happen after June 1st, essentially. I could have to sign with Atlanta. Yeah, and he's probably not going to officially sign until after June 1st. Because he's still technically under the Dolphins roster. Okay. Same thing with Bradley Chubb. All right. We're going to step aside for a quick break when we come back.

We'll get into Carson Wentz signing a one-year deal to the Vikings and the NFL rule change proposition from the Cleveland Browns. This is a homerooski podcast. It may not have always showed it in the stat sheet, but you can see him making throws when he needs to make the throws. Back-to-back games where he has three touchdowns. Someone's got to get that six or seven spot. He's an elite wide receiver as a rookie.

Truly a lose-lose scenario for both sides. Welcome back to the Fomleruski podcast. Carson Wentz signs a one-year deal to return to the Minnesota Vikings. I feel like if anything, this deal is really just something to fall back on. because obviously Carson Wentz isn't like Carson Wentz is not a very good quarterback anymore, but he'll give you one or two games, maybe. But other than that, he's just a guy that knows the system and someone that you can trust to know the system and run it,

just somewhat run it. That's really it. That's how I kind of see it. First and foremost, congratulations to Carson Wentz being back. Hopefully he's back to 100%. because man, it was looking rough when he was playing injured. Yeah. Yeah, especially against the charges when he finally went out.

Oh, that look rough. But congrats to him. I don't think he'll be the starter. I think he'll be the number. I'm not even sure he'll be the number two. Right now, the depth chart has Murray as QB1, JJ as QB2, Carson Wentz is QB3. man that's got that's got to be that's got to hurt that you're the QB3 behind I mean behind nine right now that but in all seriousness I think Carson wins could have the chance to be the starter and

with the Vikings because he does have a rapport with the Jordan Addison that was clear as day because he always was looking for him yeah but outside of that I'm not just sure he's going to be the clear-cut starter. I think Tyler's better than him, like, hands down, just flat out right now in their career. And so he's probably going to be the number one and Wynce is probably going to be the number three because I'm not sure if JJ McCarthy will ever be the number three, even if he's horrible. C.J. Oh, my God.

You wanted to add, tuck? No, I have nothing to add when it comes to the Vikings and their quarterback situation. What is it with the Vikings and their inability to find decent quarterbacks? Like all the good quarterbacks they've had in recent vintage have been journeymen. They haven't really drafted any world beaters. I mean, they drafted Christian Ponder, then Teddy Bridgewater, and then J.J. McCarthy. And, you know, it gets to a point where we got to ask ourselves, like, and I know there are those rumors that the Vikings are already done with him.

But it's like, are they cursed or something? Because they have stars and Hall of Famers at almost every position up and down the entire roster except quarterback. And I think the Vikings across all four major American sports have the best win percentage of a team that's like never won their respective championship. So I don't know anymore. I mean, we know, we, you know, we have our thoughts on Kyler. But whence, I mean, yeah, QB3, maybe McCarthy becomes good. Maybe he doesn't. I don't know.

But yeah, it's just a mess over there in Minnesota. It really is. Yeah. I mean, if anything, Carson Wentz, probably a good locker room guy to have. Probably at the very least. I would assume. I don't know.

He seems like a nice guy. He's a big guy. Yeah. Yeah. He's a bad quarterback. That's all. He used to be so good. Yeah, I know.

He took that injury. Fuck him on. Yeah. unreal a couple rule change proposals from this week as well the first one being or the second one technically because this was the most recent one but we could talk about the other one as well which is well the Steelers proposed a new rule on Wednesday and it was basically about contact players during the free agent negotiating period. In terms of the Browns, now their proposal is to,

they proposed a rule to allow teams to trade draft picks five years in advance. The current rule is three. I want to say yes, but then I realize how reckless this could get. Like I could see a team have like three or four draft picks in the first round in one draft. And it's like, do we really want to do that? And like, who would be the player we would do that for? And that's like what it's like,

do you really trust your franchise that much that you're willing to have five first round picks depending on the situation? And so for the next five years, you may not have a first round pick. And you have to hit on the round second, throwing. I'm not sure there's a lot of teams I can get away with that.

C.J, before you go, I'm just going to read it straight from the article real quick. So this is a quote from the ESPN article, from this or the Associated Press, but it's on ESPN. A new crop of general managers has led to more trades in recent years, and this rule change would make that easier in the future. There have already been six first round picks from this year's draft that have been traded with the latest coming from Jalen Waddle.

The Browns argued that the dolphins would or the dolphins, the Browns argued that the changes would lead to a more active trade market and greater roster flexibility. And I mean, well, Tocke mentioned the outrageousness and

how out of control it can get. I mean, the NBA could be an example because that was a comparison that was used because they have a seven year window of draft picks to trade, which is why you see a lot of draft picks that are like 2031 draft pick and shit like that. Horrible idea.

First of all, the Browns are suggesting this. So we got to say, no, no, bad, shame, condemn you to hell. You know, why are we going to let the Cleveland Browns dictate anything about trades? Why did you want to give up five first round picks for Deshawn Watson instead of what you initially did? You know, you know what I mean? Sometimes it's not even about the more robust trade market, roster flexibility. These teams, I think if the league says no, we'd be saving these teams from themselves.

Because, you know, you look at some GMs, some of those GMs are not going to say who or for what teams. They're very special. They're very special people. and they might not make a decision that's good. How would you like to hear that your team doesn't have any first rounders for the next five years? I mean, then you'd be a Rams fan, but, you know, I mean, I know Wes Snead, their GM, oh, he'd be jumping for joy if he could do that. But really, I just feel like trading picks up to five years in advance.

I just think that's stupid. and, yeah, the part of the Browns are proposing it means that they're going to try some sort of nonsense, I would feel like. And on top of that, like I said, I mean, literally for the good of these teams, just vote no and just say no and save them from themselves. Yeah. At the end, I also kind of want to just say, fuck it. Let's just see what happens type of thing, too. But, I don't know. May allow how Roseman to start fucking around.

Oh man, if you allow that man to get a deeper bag He would turn into Brad Stevens You turn into Brad Stevens real quick Yes Because him and Brad Stevens are already basically the same person Like I think the meme right now that was going on Especially after the most recent Brad Stevens Trade when he trade for Ravutjevic

But it was like If you trade with Brad Stevens Just know you're getting fucking fleeced or and same thing with Howie Roseman like if you train with them just know you got fucking fleeced yep the other rule change

that kind of mentioned it Steelers proposing a rule change in regards to contacting a mistyped it should be players not teams during free agency but yeah that's the other rule

the NFL allowed teams this year on a trial basis to conduct up to five phone or video calls directly with players on other teams during the two-day free agent negotiating period before the start of the league year. Teams previously had been able to contact only agents during that time. Steelers are asking for the rule to be permanent as well as allowing teams to make travel arrangements before the start of the league year with players who have agreed to terms for new contracts during the negotiating period. It sounds like a good idea. It might be a lot more interest to see what teams think about in regards to how they contact players and what they

talk about. But on the other hand, it's the Steelers proposing this. So hell no, absolutely not. Well, you don't think it could help you guys? You don't think it could help Baltimore? If it helps the Steelers in any way, shape, or form, I don't want it. I don't want it. We don't need it. We're good. CJ? You know, I know. I know they, want to like talk to these guys and agree to deals before you know the period there starts but honestly doesn't that take the frenzy out of free agency frenzy if all this nonsense is predetermined and is allowed to be predetermined then what's the point no i love to see the mad dash every year you know to know like the it's like the it's like uh you know like like the gold

rush you everyone's going over out west to get their peace that's I mean that that's how Fradency is everyone's just running all over the market you know there's everyone's scrambling like that's the joy of it this would take the joy out of it immediately say oh yeah look at these people

already agreed to a deal two days before that's so stupid come on like the mad dash is what makes it fun and it's what the market demands yeah I don't have much of an opinion honestly, I'm probably would lean like what CJ said.

Let the, let the mad dash happen. So I guess I don't agree that. Yeah. All right. That's all the, really all the big news that happened

other than like T.Y. Hilton retiring. Thought he was officially retiring, I should say. We know, we know. You were out of the league for quite a bit. We know. But can't disrespect

what type of receiver to why Hillen was. Hall of very good all of very good. And the other silly news was Travis A-T-N is actually Travis E-chan. Yeah, turns out that was actually his name.

It's Travis A-chan? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. H-N. H-N. H-N. Yeah, that's actually how it's pronounced. Travis H-H-N.

H-N. and he's been letting us get away with this for how long now? Apparently he got tired of correcting people, which I can imagine that would be exhausting, so I get it. But like, at the same time, though,

like take pride in your last name. Take pride in your name. Yeah. I mean, we've been misprouncing stuff for years, like Tyrod Taylor's real name. I remember I can't always pronounce Tarot. There's Tarad.

Like, it's always that weird stuff. But, Hey, you got it down the bud fast. I mean, hey, I'm happy that he's saying it now because, yeah, I don't think most people knew. But yeah, I'm like your person. I have some pride in your name. You got to say, hey, this is my name.

This is how it's pronounced. Especially like, like, take me for, I'm a, I'm a broadcaster. Like, I have to get people's names right. Like, I have to take pride in, like, getting these guys names right, because their families are watching or like their families or their girlfriends are watching. Yes, but the whole time he was at Clemsonston, we've been calling him E. ETN. Which, like, by the way, like, shame on the SID over at Clemson for not having it in the pronunciation guide or something like that or the guys call in the college football games

if there was a pronunciation guide. Shame on them for not looking at it. Like, someone is at fault here from Clemson. Mm-hmm. I'm glad we're going to agree with. Which is weird because I know people who have that. last name and they have never been called that

and I've heard someone been asked to pronounce it and they've literally said ETN which is why I'm like huh okay is it like a differentiation or they all or is everybody called that yeah I was saying wait because I was just like wait you went to Clemson right for some reason I was thinking the other ATN which went to Georgia yeah

and I had to stop and think for a moment there. But yeah, end of the day. Someone's to blame. Take pride in your name. That rhymed. That was good. That was good.

All right. Let's do some Immaculate Grid. All right, time. What they came to see. Both of our favorite teams are on here. Awesome. So we need a Raven and a Niner, a Raven and a Viking.

Raven and a cowboy, a Pat, a Patriot and a 49er, a patron a Viking, a Patriot, and a cowboy, a 49er that got 50 plus career sacks, a Viking that got 50 plus career sacks, and a cowboy that got 50 plus career sacks. All right. I feel like we should just, I mean, we could pretty much start from anywhere around here. You know, I just realized Patriots, Vikings, what do you know about McKeel Harry? Nice. Nice. I think people would know that, though, wouldn't they? No, they wouldn't.

I bet it's less than five. Tear that or Jalen Rager. Or Sifon Diggs. I'm going to Galeary. One percent. Nice. See, you told you, John. Pat Niner.

Mac Jones, Kendrick Bourne. Oh, those are too obvious. Yeah, I know, I know. I know. I know. I'm just, I'm just, no. Yeah. Randy Moss.

That's another funny one. Yeah, that's right. Jimmy Garapolo. Did Brian Hoyer ever play there? Yeah, he did. Brian. But is Brian Hoyer too obvious? I wouldn't think.

I hope not. I hope I'm not about to shoot myself in the cock here. All right. Go. Go. 3%. All right. It's a good move.

Good move. Patriots, Cowboys. Stefan Gilmore is just on the Cowboys. Yeah. He always one. Zeke's another. We can't. You know, that's too obvious, of course.

Especially seeing Zeeke only played for two teams in his career. Yeah. Ooh, there's somebody that I feel like I'm forgetting. Not same here. Same here. Did. Okay. Is that okay?

Like, you got something or? Oh, I'm let's know. I let's go. What is that? But how many people know that Drew Bledsoe played for the Cowboys for a hot minute? At the end of his career. Because people know him for playing on the Patriots and Bills, but what about the Cowboys? Yeah, I suppose.

I feel like we have this one defensive lineman. No, no. Okay. Well, actually, I don't know how obvious it would be, but a white man. Wide receiver Terry Glenn is one. I think that's very not obvious. Terry Glenn was just what I was thinking of. 5%.

I'm curious what Drew Bledsoe would have been. I'm curious. All right, Tuck. Let's knock out the Ravens. Well, we have several. Ravens 49ers. You can either go Kyle, Juice Check, and Cornwall and Torre Smith.

Forgot News Check was on the Ravens. That might be like. Well, wait, Troy Smith. Wasn't he on the 49ers? Troy Smith. Heisman winner at Ohio State. I think so. But did he play Snap?

I can't. I can't. It would be the 07 one, but I'm not sure. I'm not sure. Pretty sure. You know, beyond Sanders, Deb, that's obvious. Michael Crabtree is another one. Oh, yeah, Crabtree.

Wait, hold up, hold up. Tuck, how obvious would Elvis Dumerville be? That wouldn't be obvious, but he played for the 49ers? Yeah, he did. I just remember the name because Elvis Dumerville is one of the absolute most hard names that I have heard. That's so cool. I think Tuck's reaction is all I needed to hear. Whoa, Dumerville was so good in his prime.

They got to respect them, though. Oh, my. 0.7%. Great. Good gravy. You got to think of like the low end hall of very good guys sometimes. Ah, you know, you're not right. All right.

Ravens Vikings. Purple on purple action. Who remembers Vashanté Shanko? That's all I need here. How do you spell his fucking name? I can try to look it up. What is it? Vichante.

No. The I. Also, Lequam Trell. What? Uh, Tuck. Did Lequam Treadwell, I feel like played for the Ravens? I think like in 2021. Lequon Treadwell did play for us, but I don't think he played like a snap.

Wait a minute. Latavius Murray, I think, played for the Ravens. He did. He played a snap. All right. I'll go Latavis Murray. Oh, 9%. That's crazy.

Wait, how do you not give Vashanti Shank? We didn't. I must not play a snap. I'm sorry. I'm a, I'm a, I'm a stupid, useless. That's not your fault. Please forgive me. Yeah, there must, he must not play a snap for one of them. Right. Ravens, Cowboys. Deons and Ryan.

Hey. Who? Dalman Cook. Delvin Cook, yes. No one. No, no, but did he play a snap. I don't know if he played. He did play a snap for the Ravens in the playoff.

What about the? that tight end, Gavin Escobar. That's all I needed to hear. 0.2%. Yes. Madden legend, Gavin Escobar. All right. Hold on time out.

For the 49ers and 50 plus sacks, Justin Smith. Yeah, but he was really good. Does anyone remember the name, though? Yeah, well, it's a very basic name. Yeah, he was there forever. 4%. Hey, nice, nice.

All right, for the vice. There are a few ways we could go. Not Jared Allen. That's too obvious. I feel you got to start thinking of the purple people leaders. Alvin Page or Alan Page. Yeah. He's like a little obvious. He's like one of the best offensive tackles ever. No, there's only one L. One L. Oh, there we go. I feel like it's a guy. Can I see it? Six. Oh, whoa, the disrespect. All right. And for the Cowboys.

That's what I mean like we're in an age. where people aren't really thinking of the proper people leaders. Cowboys. How many of those guys do Tyrone Crawford have? That's a good question. I'm not sure. Actually, I don't, maybe he's not 50. He wasn't that prolific.

There's another, who is, I mean, you'd go freaking Charles Haley, just called a day, but you could also done that for the Niners, too. Oh, yeah. Okay, Tuck, do you know of anyone? That played for the Witch McCollard and got 50 plus X? The Watcher McCollets, yes, the Dallas Cowboys. DeMarcus Lawrence, I believe, did.

DeMarcus, where, but that's way too obvious. Yes. Not Randy Gregory. What about, what's his name? What about Randy White? Would that be too obvious? It might be. What are you to deploy?

I don't recall. 70s? Yeah, there's Randy White. They have this other dude. Funny last names. Last name was like Jeff Code or something like that. I think this is far back enough or it's not obvious. Okay.

3%. Okay. You know what? Good game, fellas. I'll take it. No, that's my fault. That's my fault. Drew Bletso is the most popular Pat Cowboy.

How about that? It's a good thing we didn't go there. Jimmy G. Joe is the most obvious for Pat's Niners, for Andy Moss, Pat's Vikings. No big surprise. Randall Cunningham was most obvious Viking Raven. I forgot that he was a Raven.

I forgot that too. Dion and Kwan for Niners, Ravens. Makes sense. Nick Boza, the most obvious. 49. with 50 plus. Jared Allen for the Vikings, DeMarcus Ware for what's most obvious for the Cowboys.

People failed the most on Ravens Vikings, which evidently enough, that's funny because that's what we failed on. Yeah, because I'm thinking of Shanty Shanko, and I was wrong. Yeah. He didn't even think of the Ravens,

but I thought he did. Highest accuracy was Cowboys, 50 plus sacks. There we go. All right, so our rarity score. You have both our teams on there. That was fun. Yeah, but I got to calculate the actual, I want to calculate the actual rarity score because 130 is obviously not the right number.

It's point two plus nine. Justin Smith disrespect is vile. Not many people think about him. He was so good, though. 26.9. Oh, nice. He's one of those players that gets lost to history. True shit, dude.

26.9. I bet he had a cool nickname they'd remember him. Yeah. All right. That's all the scheduled content that we have for you today. Thank you for tuning in to another Friday episode of the Flamblerusky podcast. No episode coming out on Tuesday at 8 a.m. Be there every square.
