Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Just one, you know, someone's got to do one hour of TV a day and call it a job.

Get out of here.

Goodbye.

This guy's got to get back to work.

Well, yeah, and I guess I'll kind of react to what you're saying and get into that a little bit.

I think one of the things that precludes the Bears from being more aggressive on defense, and yes, there might have been a time when the Bears were in on the Max Crosby deal, which would have forced them to give up resources and draft picks and all of that.

We understand that.

It doesn't look like that's going to happen, but...

I think about the guys, especially on defense, that the Bears signed last year.

Dio Dangbo and Grady Jarrett, for sure.

Montez Sweat before that.

At some point in time, my guess is that Ryan Poles' bosses are saying to him, and I'm sure Ryan Poles is smart enough to know that

There was tons of resources put into the defensive line last year, one of them through the draft as well.

So you have to justify those picks at some point in time.

It's hard to clean up bad draft picks with signings.

We all know that that's a hit or miss sort of prophecy.

So I think that's one thing.

Those two names, Grady Jarrett, Dio Odangbo.
