He was a top-10 pick in the MLB and number one overall in the NFL and won the Offensive Rookie of the Year, all while being under six foot. I don't necessarily believe he could accomplish all those things without having some sort of sustainable, respectable work ethic. Oh, I just think he was more talented than anybody, everybody. You can put the language in a contract and then say well you know he accomplished all these things so he has to have a work ethic When the team says we need you to study then that tells me you were so talented in high school and you were so talented in college. When you get to the NFL, you've got to study. But the …”

If he doesn't improve, he may find himself moving from team to team.
“… not this year. If I had to bet on flipping that coin, I would bet he still goes somewhere else for a little bit less than what the Ravens offered. Kyler Murray, it feels like all signs point towards Minnesota. Tell me why this works and why it might not work. Well, it might not work for the same reason it's never totally worked with Kyler Murray. And that's because of his incredible inconsistency. You know, you would think after seven years that you have a pretty good idea of what you're going to get from a player on a week in and week out basis. That is not the case with Kyler. And that's really, …”
“… have to be until 2027. So on some level, you can be a team where you still take your first-round pick in 26, but then maybe still get Max Crosby. I don't think that this is the end of it. I'd say it's 50-50 whether Crosby plays for the Raiders or not this year. If I had to bet on flipping that coin, I would bet he still goes somewhere else for a little bit less than what the Ravens offered. Kyler Murray, it feels like all signs point towards Minnesota. Tell me why this works and why it might not work. Well, it might not work for the same reason it's never totally worked with Kyler Murray. And that's because of his incredible inconsistency. You know, you would think after seven years that you have a pretty good idea of what you're going to get from a player on a week in and week out basis. That is not the case with Kyler. And that's really, really tough for any organization, any coaching staff. You know, even like Kirk Cousins, you kind of know what he is and what you're going to get. with Kyler Dan it's like a week to week deal I mean there are weeks where and I don't know if it's his preparation or he doesn't adjust as well if the defense is what he was expecting, but there are weeks …”

“… where somebody's falling over themselves to give him $50 million. And the Arizona Cardinals are willing to eat 30 something million dollars to tell Kyler Murray, who I'm pretty sure is a better player, to go away. 60 million to tell two would have beat it right um who's had a better season maybe you wouldn't argue he's a better player but at least has had a better season when did Daniel Jones turn into a guy you paid 50 million dollars to yeah far be it for me to knock anybody for getting their money however this seems like a situation where the circumstances have worked in his benefit it's Kirk …”
“… many times which is somebody gets in a new situation and gets off to a hot start And then everybody was like wait a minute man it Daniel Jones And then he went back to playing like Daniel Jones before he suffered an Achilles injury So this is a world where somebody's falling over themselves to give him $50 million. And the Arizona Cardinals are willing to eat 30 something million dollars to tell Kyler Murray, who I'm pretty sure is a better player, to go away. 60 million to tell two would have beat it right um who's had a better season maybe you wouldn't argue he's a better player but at least has had a better season when did Daniel Jones turn into a guy you paid 50 million dollars to yeah far be it for me to knock anybody for getting their money however this seems like a situation where the circumstances have worked in his benefit it's Kirk Cousins-esque and that the circumstances work to your benefit in such a way. But it's not even fair to Kirk Cousins because Kirk Cousins has put together a longer stretch and more impressive career than I think Daniel Jones has at this point. And before you even get to the Achilles part, the Achilles part matters because that is one of the few remaining …”
