I'm a special Capaccio for you, right?

Oh, now that sounds really good.

Oh, you like?

Hey, get away, get away from my wife with that.

What's the matter, Carpaccio?

No good?

What?

What do you do now?

I don't like a Carpaccio.

I like Carpaccio.

Oh.

Don WGR.

I like a Carpaccio for you.

Sports Radio 550.

Just to finish briefly the conversation we were having, I do think it might be a thing,

not everybody, it's relatively few.

I do think it might be a thing where college players go to the NFL and tweak the pronunciation

of their name.

I think a few guys have done that.

You watch college clips to find out how a player's name is pronounced, and then they

get to the NFL and they tell you, no, it's not HN, it's HN.

And Romeo Dobbs was something else until he got to, like, I think maybe there's a little

bit of, there might be a strategy in that somehow, like, it sounds ridiculous, right?

The strategy part, maybe, yeah.

I'm not getting, I'm not getting to Hellenus, Bulldog.

I'm just not.

I mean, I know it's his name.

He can decide.

It can't believe that's easy enough to say.

I will hold up the Hellenus side of things.

Can't believe that.

I will do it.

There's another guy in the league, right, with the same name, it's pronounced the proper

way.

The proper way.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

You are so righteous about this stuff.

I don't know why people don't come along.

Here is C-A-P-C-P-C-P-C-P-C-P-C-P-C-O with this, that's got to be right, Bulldog.

There's no other way to pronounce that name.

Tell with us on the Western Hotline.

Do you have a story about your name, by the way, like the family story, but how?

I used to not be able to say it very well, wasn't it?

When we say, yeah, I feel like I used to miss, didn't I used to sort of botch your name

a little bit, or am I misrememberable?

I don't know if you ever did, I mean, obviously the one big thing people do is say Carpachio

because of the meat, right?

I mean, like people say it all the time.

Oh yeah, sell Carpachio, I'm like, and I always say like, that's the meat.

I don't have an R in my name, I'm just Carpachio.

This clip we played just now, sale doesn't help.

I know, I know, but it, yes, that's right, that's kind of the joke, but it is true, that

does happen.

No, I'm not much of a story, I guess.

You know, a lot of times when immigrants come over from certain, you know, countries

like Italy back in the day, they might take the name on of a town.

There is a town called Carpachio, but my family is not from there, but I believe there

is a town in Italy called Carpachio.

Your family changed, your last name at some point.

Yeah, my dad's dad changed, Parker, two Parker from Parsonski, that was the name that

I think he grew up with.

I think it was while he was, you know, alive that they changed the last name.

Okay, names, box checked, next box, how do you pronounce Chubb?

Bradley Chubb.

Is there an alternate pronunciation of Chubb?

I don't know, unless it's Chubb that we don't know about, right?

I mean, do you want to know what his nickname is?

I'm Prof. Paul Reference.

I happen to know it.

It's actually also his handle on Twitter and Instagram.

Bulldog?

Chubb.

You have to know it to know it.

Yeah, no, I don't know.

Astronaut.

Astronaut.

Right.

I'm not really sure why, Mike.

You might know the story there.

I don't.

Not really sure.

I don't.

But it's a good transition for names to this player.

It's a good thought.

Yeah, for sure.

For sure.

How do the bills do here?

This is the guy that John L.A. chose instead of Josh Allen in the 2018 draft, and later

said that not taking Josh Allen was a big regret, but kind of blamed on the coaching staff.

But it's funny now because obviously, Josh and Bradley Chubb are going to be teammates.

This was not a player that I thought was the high-end pass rusher that they could go

out and sign, and he's not getting the kind of money or a claim or deal that you would

see a Max Crosby or a Trey Hendrix in.

I think that he fits better with the bill scheme now, what they're going to do than what

it had been.

You know, any talk in the past, I think you can come in and do that.

Coming off the ACL last year, if you would have said to me last year, would have scared

me.

But he did play 17 games last year, which is good.

I'm done carrying around bulky drinks, and I'm definitely done cleaning melted candy out

of my pockets.

So yeah, I traded them both in for fruity rainbow five hour energy shots.

These little guys are as pocket-sized as any candy.

But instead of a sugar crash, you get a zero sugar caffeine boost.

Candy can't even compare at this point.

Fruity rainbow five hour energy shots treat your taste buds to an explosion of fruity flavor

This is attorney Amida Zari from Zari Law.

If you've been injured in an accident and feel like no one is fighting for you, it's time

to fight back.

Call 888-828-Hurt, that's 888-828-HURT, and let us fight back for you.

Yeah, I think you can fit in.

I think it's fine.

It's not a player that I'm doing cartwheels over, but it's also not a player that I think

he can help the defense for sure, given Jim Leonard what he wants to do with the defense.

He'll fit in just fine, and we'll see on this Buffalo Bill squad, he does have his best

two-sac season since his rookie year, his best two-sac seasons, or his last two years

healthy in the league, eight and a half last year, and then 11 before the ACL injury,

but like I said, he's a full, you know, two years removed this coming year of that.

Yeah.

I like how you describe the money.

We every year, I think Mike and I were the same way about Palmer.

Like the deal comes down and we hear it's 12 million or 13, or in this case, it's close

to 15 million a year, and Mike says it's big money, and I'm over here going, it's not,

it's like middle class, not big money.

It's a lot of money, but it's not in the NFL big money.

It's big money for who he is.

It's the point really, yeah.

Yeah.

Sorry.

And I would say that about this, I think.

I don't know, I think the money, I think, I guess I disagree.

I think it's about what eight sacks last year should cost you about 15 million a year.

I think I want to say that.

I don't think the contract is outrageous at all, or even big money.

So I'm glad we're hashing this out.

I'm sorry we're wasting your time sale.

It's okay.

And let's let's remember it's always the guarantee money that really counts more than anything,

right guys?

I mean, it's 29 million guaranteed.

So it's less than 10 million a year guaranteed.

So at the end of the day, you know, how many of these guys really see the full number on

the contract that we see the agent give the, you know, reporters and 43.5 is, I'm sure

the very top end of what he could make, but he's actually only getting 29 over three years

guaranteed.

And then we'll see how the numbers wash when it comes to cap it, adding and void years,

things like that.

I'm going to be, I'd be surprised if it wasn't like, you know, a lower cap it this year more

money down the road, like they usually do with these signs, kind of, and how soon can you

get out of it if it doesn't go.

Yeah.

Like how much pain is there a year from now, if this, oh, well, that didn't really work.

You know, yeah, that's right.

There is always, sorry to be, this is the, that's the world we live in.

You know, like that, that Miller signs six years, whatever that was, 120 million.

Well, how come soon can they get out of it?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Right.

Yeah.

We signed a guy.

How soon can we get rid of them?

Well, a couple of things from me on this.

I'm not going to try to pretend that I'm the Bradley Chobb expert or anything like this.

But what I've heard about him doesn't sound super good.

But it's a, you know, a big name and you need somebody.

I just, what can you do about this salad, or then draft the right guy, one of these

years.

The bills are just again chasing some, an answer at that position and having to pay whether

it's a lot or a real lot into a veteran, probably on the downside of each of their respective

careers in that, in that attempt.

So ideally, you'd be able to draft somebody who's better and they're here for longer and

cost less.

That's what they're always trying to do and that has been hard for them.

Yeah.

I mean, the guy that they've been in the best at with that lately has been Greg Russo.

But you know, Greg Russo isn't, you know, he's not a max cross, but of course he's not

a tray Hendrix and he's had some nice numbers along the way.

He's had some impactful games, but overall, I think you're wanting more in those departments

from Greg Russo, AJ Epinessa guy that they drafted, had some nice numbers at times, had

some plays along the way, but, you know, you want more a little bit there.

And then now he's going to, he's a free agent now as well, by the way, and Greg Russo

is a fine player.

You know, he earned a contract extension and nothing wrong with that, but they've taken

these swings that really guys who can get after the quarterback, guys who can put the

passer down.

That's what they've wanted to do here.

And that's why you've seen Von Miller.

That's why you've seen Joey Bosa and honestly, your Bradley Chubb is just in the line

of that.

He's not making the same money as those guys, but it feels like that, which is, hey,

we haven't been able to draft and develop that position the way we've wanted to.

So we've had to go out and pay a little bit more, maybe then, you know, we'd want to

be in a different situation to bring in a guy like that and you hope that that's Bradley

Chubb.

I'm always just really now in a mindset of wondering how these things change with Jim Leonard

as the coach and with the new scheme, because, you know, we've just been so used to

show him with your mischeme and then just put this guy here and you know what he's going

to do.

I'm just super curious how they use a lot of these guys and that that's the next kind

of challenge and intrigue for me moving forward.

And I think that sort of dovetails right into why if fans are, I mean, like, you have

to give the speech every year at this time, like you get a long time to put your roster

together, right?

It's not all moves that need to be made in the first, you know, 24, 48, 72 hours of

free agency, but I get the sense that the fan base is a little itchy.

And a part of it is, I think largely what you just alluded to, I've got a new scheme

on that side of the ball, I'd probably I'm going to need at least, first of all, I have

holes that I need to fill.

And I also might need different sorts of players than some players that are here.

And the bills just have not been real, real busy at all here.

I mean, they made the DJ more trade.

They signed a corner to replace Taren Johnson, I presume, right, the other day.

Now this, and that's really it, like it, it just, so, you know, the, the idea of like

the linebacker from, from Kansas City, Chanel, like he, he signs up modest contrary and

watching, like, oh, how come we didn't do that?

How come we didn't do that?

And there's just not a lot happening to sort of fill in what is, you know, going to be

a new scheme.

And I think that's got a lot of us maybe kind of just, what are we doing?

Like, are you going to get busy rebuilding this roster?

What?

Yeah, I mean, as it currently stands, there are still, still, by my count, 11, actually 12

now because bail inspector, he was, you know, not given a tender, but he's a guy that counts

here too.

It looks like 11, 12 unrestricted free agents still on the defensive side, only two on

the offensive side guys, which is crazy, right?

And that's because that they've kind of leaned into, we're going to overhaul a lot of this,

you know, we're going to have different players there.

And that doesn't even include the guys have already left, which is, you know, Kim Lewis,

Darnell Savage, so a couple of them.

So you're really talking about, you know, a turnover of maybe 14 players here that were

on the roster, that won't be on the roster again next year on the offensive side.

That is not the case.

I mean, they have signed, they have traded for DJ Moore, and they have signed Kyle Allen.

Otherwise, they brought back Alec Anderson.

They brought back today, Ryan Vanderbark, the only two unrestricted free agents on the

roster as of today are Brandon Cooks and Gabe Davis.

They did lose Reggie Gilliam and Dave Edwards, of course, right?

So the offensive side is very much intact, and they have the offensive coordinator now

being the head coach.

The defensive side, this is where it's been trending for months now, which is, look, they

have some players there, they're going to retain, but by and large, a lot of the roster

is just going to get turned over.

You and I talked at the time of the DJ Moore trade, and I brought up drafting a wide receiver

with the first round pick now that you've made this move with your second.

And I said, no way you said, don't entirely want to rule it out.

If I remember correctly, Bulldog is also a no on this.

Same question edge rusher after this trade, I would not want to rule it out.

You said also you would not want to rule it out.

How about you sell?

I would not rule it out.

I would say there's a big caveat here though.

I don't know.

We would really have to pen what they feel about Michael Hoyt's health, how quickly can

he come back, how impactful can he be, how early?

If the answer to that is, yeah, we're really not sure.

I definitely wouldn't rule it out.

If the answer to that is, no, we're pretty confident, like he's going to be back.

He'll be fine.

I would not rule it out.

I still wouldn't rule it out, but I think it would be less likely of a chance.

Michael Hoyt is going to be a really important player for them.

They just paid Greg or so.

He's going to be an important player.

Now they have Bradley Chubb.

The other guys don't really totally move the needle in this regard for me, right, which

is Lane and Jackson coming off the injury.

They do have Andre Jones Jr. on the roster.

Then Javon Solomon, who I told you guys the other day, was interesting to me that Brandon

being brought him up to unprompted at the combine, but I don't think that that means that he's

some big role.

Definitely, you could use a fourth guy there, but you also have a few guys who will be in

the mix kind of to be the fourth guy there.

It really depends to me on how healthy they feel Michael Hoyt is going to be.

El Capaccio on the Western hotline.

Are you done over there with the bills because I want to get to Crosby?

I can be.

I mean, Crosby needs maybe needs the rest of the segment.

When we were talking about this earlier, Sal, you know, and the whole intrigue, I guess

the Ravens GM is speaking now, by the way, but the intrigue around like the physical and

is it a reasonable thing for the Ravens to back out of the trade because the player couldn't

pass a physical, given that he had knee surgery, what, eight weeks ago, I think I read.

And Bulldog said in the course of the conversation, what does failing a physical this time of year

even mean?

Might you know the answer to that?

I mean, are there different physicals based on whether you're coming off a certain kind

of injury or anything else that goes into what are teams trying to find out this early

in the offseason, but it's not always that necessarily that early in the process, of

course, free agency is underway.

Well, the physical can be different for every team.

They're just trying to find out how healthy the person is, and especially when you are

coming off an injury, they're going to, you know, check on specifically that injury short

term, long term.

We've heard a little bit about that today, like, where is he short term?

Where is he going to be long term?

How comfortable are we, you know, with bringing this player in?

A lot of times this happens when you sign a player, like the bills, you know, they signed

or they agreed in terms of D Alfred.

What would D Alfred just above will take a physical before they actually sign a contract

with him?

We've seen that before, guys fail a physical, so they don't actually, you know, play.

I just think this particular case kind of smells a little bit to me a little bit different.

And I don't like it.

I think the Ravens, they kind of play the game here, the way I can see it.

And the reason is, guys, I've been in this league long enough to know how information

gets disseminated around each team and how teams kind of find things out.

There's enough information on Max Crosby's knee, and there should have been available

to the Baltimore Ravens where they should not have been taken by this huge surprise suddenly

about this knee and where he is.

The doctor, apparently that performed the surgery, I believe is the Cowboys doctor, Dr. Cooper,

who also works on other players.

And that's the key there to think about.

Like these doctors, they share information, and I know we can talk about the hip and stuff

like that.

But that's what happens when you go to the combine.

You go to the combine.

It's a team of doctors, different guys from different clubs are checking on guys.

There is a lot of information that all these teams have access to.

They play, they talk with each other all the time.

That's why you felt, and that's why you saw yesterday, the Ravens kind of blaming the

Raiders a little bit, a little bit overnight last night, that they didn't disclose this

or that.

No, I'm not buying it.

I think the Baltimore Ravens saw the market for Tray Hendrix in coming down and said,

you know, well, we might have a little bit of an out here.

We can kind of go get that guy and not give up the picks and pay maybe less money here.

So let's go do that.

That's what I think happened.

Here's the GM here is going hard.

The Ravens GM, who's like Mike said, speaking of the cost of, thank you, with the story

that they wanted to have both guys on the team.

They were talking to Hendrix in before they knew that Crosby was going to have the failed

physical.

I don't know.

That to me is the smelliest piece of this whole thing.

See, that justifies your shifter take now.

Yeah.

Right.

Hendrix and thought he was going to play with Crosby or that he might have and that

absolutely he was told to say that by the team.

I think that's the Ravens position is that they were going for both guys.

Right.

And I think that's insane sale.

My mom wouldn't think you could pay two adressures 30 million a year and have a 50 million

dollar quarterback.

I mean, what are we doing?

No, that's right.

They've lost some guys on offense.

They lost a center.

I believe that it's a guard.

They lost a tight end.

They lost their full back and they're going to pay all this money to edge rushers.

And like you said, so Lamar Jackson and you had a little bit of trouble protecting him

last year and keeping him healthy.

I will tell you that I can guarantee you people around the league are just not happy.

I know we've seen some of that.

There's some reporting about that.

There are reasons sometimes though to back out of a trade because of a physical.

That can happen.

There's no doubt.

Like a guy can, you can make a trade.

The guy goes in.

You're like, you know what?

I, we didn't, you know, know about this.

So we're going to feel the physical.

That has happened.

I'm saying in this particular case, I don't believe that happened quite like that.

This is too high profile of a player, too high profile of a move to make without knowing

all of the information that the Ravens should have.

And I think did know, but then saw that other thing happening over here and going, wait a

minute.

Do we really need to do this?

We have an out here.

And for them to basically screw the Raiders over this now, which is the Raiders have all

these agreements with guys that they're going to sign contracts to thinking they have $30

million off their books, by the way.

And now they have to come back and fit those guys in thinking they have two extra first-round

picks.

So now they're operating through free agency thinking that way.

Now they don't have that.

I just think it smells.

We as a group, not ruling out the bills drafting an edge rusher at pick 26 are ruling out

the bills trading for Max Crosby after this signing today.

I am.

Yes.

What have gotten off the ground as a topic?

Yeah.

I mean, the bills are a classic example of a team that you might think would do that.

Yeah.

Especially if you were going to pay two thirds of the price that originally Baltimore

had paid, which I think was completely plausible.

Like if Baltimore was willing to pay that, then it would make sense that no team is going

to answer the phone and go, yo, you want the same deal?

Sure, I'll make the same deal now.

Forget it.

The readers over a barrel, if they want to move the player, they would do it for less.

But yeah, I wouldn't think the bills are in on that now because they've made their move.

Funny, huh?

I would agree with that unless he came in a really cheap price, but I mean, I don't think

the readers are just going to give him away.

It does kind of feel a little weird, though, and odd, like it's just like that Max Crosby

doesn't want to be there.

I know he went back today, and there's all these stories about O'Harmony and all that.

It just doesn't feel like it's going to end with Max Crosby still being a Las Vegas

rater this year.

Cell, I saw this from Albert Brear, maybe you did too, between and including the years

2010 to 2019, a decade, 29 quarterbacks were drafted in the first round, three remain

with their original team, Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, the Mar Jackson, that's the list.

Every other quarterback in a decade drafted in the first round is on a new team, capped

by Kyler Murray, who will not be back with Arizona.

We don't exactly know where everybody seems to think the Vikings.

So how about that?

Wow, what a different time we live in, right?

I mean, maybe this was more commonplace than I'm thinking back in the day, so to speak,

but it feels like it's not.

And maybe the reason was because now you have the first round slotted contracts, right,

where back years ago, I think maybe Stafford was the last guy that got like that draft

2012 might have been the last time they had like, you know, no kind of slotting of the

draft picks.

So it was so, so prohibitive to move off a player, which it just isn't no.

If he's not, if he's not the guy and he doesn't hit, okay, he's like any other rookies,

not just a quarterback.

He, no matter what position he plays, he's making the same money.

I feel like better when he drafted him.

Sam Bradford is a name that comes to mind because like when that wasn't going well for

him, it was like, yeah, but they, they're going to be like 56 million, just way back then

of dead money.

And like that's untenable.

We just can't do it.

We're stuck.

Yeah, it's like, it used to be like probably four years, and now it's two.

Like if they didn't work an after two, you're out.

We're going to move on.

We're going to pivot to someone else.

That's got to be a big part of it that recent guys here, especially just teams don't have

the patience for it.

They just, like, you're not hitting word pivoting.

It's a really interesting thing to analyze.

It would be a little bit of a sample size thing to pick out that block of time, but it

is still interesting.

Is it the, the massiveness of the, you know, the scrutiny and the new cycles and everything?

I mean, coaches get how long when they get a quarterback at the three years at the most

maybe to win with.

Right.

We also did have one of these other guys that is not on as original team just win the Superbowl

MVP for his 15, 14, whatever that is.

So hey, wasn't the Superbowl MVP though.

No, you're right.

You're right.

I saw it.

By the way, his running back was.

That's right.

By the way, there is kind of a fourth guy now, though.

In who?

Geno Smith.

Oh, he's back with the Jets.

Not a first round pick.

Ah, crap.

You're right, Mike.

Sorry.

I thought I'd get one right.

He is back with his original team.

Good job.

Good effort.

Yeah.

There you go.

Are the bills?

Do you about the bills chances of playing Thanksgiving Eve?

Which by the way, I didn't even know that was a name thing Thanksgiving Eve.

I was just called it the night before Thanksgiving, but we might have that this year.

Nothing yet.

I have not backed it on that, but Matt and I will definitely be efforting to get Mike

North this year.

And we'll talk with him about that.

One of the many new things that come up every year when it comes to the schedule.

So we'll ask him about that.

That's a Wednesday night.

I mean, the NFL might play Wednesday night week one, and they might play Wednesday night

Thanksgiving now.

I mean, you know, we're getting to the point of it's going to be seven nights a week

here at some point.

Is Wednesday night week one Australia?

Well, I don't exactly know how they're going to do it, but because of Australia and because

of the opening for the stadium with, you know, an stadium with the Seahawks, like, yeah,

I guess it could be the way that they would do that.

Yeah.

Wednesday there.

Thursday, the Super Bowl thing and then Friday was that's been Brazil.

It's not.

It's not a Friday game.

It's not a Friday game this year.

Right.

Something to do with the calendar.

All right.

It's because of the, oh, high school football, high school, it's because of the, the act

that was passed way back a long time ago in the 60s, maybe, and starting the second Friday

of September, NFL teams cannot play on Friday nights and through like November, like Thanksgiving

basically.

Right.

And last year, in a few high school football, in last year would have been the first Friday

of September.

Correct.

So we'll talk later this year because Labor Day is those ladies that can be last September

race.

Data could be right.

Right.

It's exactly right.

Very good.

Seahawks, any questions for us?

Are you, how, uh, dialed in?

Are you on this, um, baseball, Italian, American game last night and I guess do they play again

tonight?

I think I don't know.

I don't even know what was going on.

I started to see it.

It'll be plays Mexico tonight.

Okay.

And because of the way the U.S. handled things and misunderstood the tie breakers, they

need the, I'm not sure everything.

I saw something about it.

They need Mexico to score five runs and they will advance, um, and lose and, and lose

the lose.

Yeah.

Italy needs to win and Mexico needs to score five runs.

Seahawks, come on.

You're September 7th is Labor Day.

It's the, the, the first Monday of September.

Sorry.

Seahawks, you're rooting for Italy.

Come on.

Right.

No, it's cool if they win.

I mean, I guess America against the Americans.

You win root for Italy?

Okay.

No, but it's cool.

I'd be like, yeah, I mean, I'll root for them if they're not playing the Americans.

I want to see the Americans win for folks who don't know to fill it out.

The manager of the U.S. team went on a TV show on MLB network yesterday talking about

how they were going to take it easy last night because they're, they're set.

They're through to the next round and they don't, so I'm going to give guys a day off

and all this sort of stuff.

And he botched it.

They needed, it turns out they needed the game and they've left themselves in a position

where they need help now to advance.

Who is it?

Mark DeRosa?

DeRosa, that's the guy.

Yes.

In the Olympic hockey, if Italy was, remember when Italy played Sweden, I think it was

like, yeah, I'm all into it.

Let's see this.

It's cool.

Right.

But I mean, if Italy's playing Team USA, I'm not going to root for Italy, but it'd be a cool

story, of course, you know.

Okay.

And that's cool to see.

Okay.

Thanks for your time today.

And we'll see if anything else breaks tomorrow.

All right.

You got it.

It's El Capaccio on the Western hotline.

His appearances are brought to you by New York's only outlet liquor.

When you need to stock up, it's the place to buy a case.

What's your outlet?

I think if I had like deep roots heritage from another country, like a European country,

that country versus Team USA in sports, I probably root for that country.

Yeah.

I think I would.

We win enough.

Maybe not in something like the Olympic hockey tournament.

Yeah.

But world baseball classic, nah, I'd have to think about it.

Yeah.

I would need the roots to really know, and I don't, I don't, I mean, I'm, I'm, you

know, generation.

Multiple generation for move from Europe, Poland versus Team USA in baseball.

I mean, you're not really rooting for USA either, not really watching.

I don't, yeah.

Don't care that much.

I only know all this about what we just talked about just because it seemed kind of funny

to me.

The manager didn't know the rules.

Yeah.

It has not gone great.

Maybe not funny.

Ha, ha.

But, you know, embarrassing.

Yes.

We will talk to Brian Cosio later today.

We need a green host Sabers pre and post game host as well about both another Sabers win

and the players championship, which starts tomorrow in Florida, the so called fifth major.

Tell us what you think, Bradley Chubb, Max Crosby, Trey Hendrickson, all of that, the Sabers

two.

Maybe last night was your night to go to the game and experience all of this and did

it blow your mind.
