And then you want to know, is that athlete going to return to be the same player he was before?

Could they go downhill?

So there's a lot of projections, and that makes it a little bit difficult.

But I think that's when you lean into versatility, flexibility, and making sure that you get the right person in the room to make sure that that group can be filled out the best they can.

And it sounds really simple, but you want to take a good football player that meets the criteria that you're looking for in terms of culture fits.

play style, intelligence, all of those things.

You really want to lean into that.

I think sometimes you can get caught in flashy.

You're trying to, you know, that guy should have went in the top 15 and he slid because of this reason, but we'll fix that.

I think you want a good football player that matches the DNA that you're looking for.

Yeah, we anticipated that just because of...

the environment both I think if you piece and kind of do an overlay of the draft and for agency we anticipated someone like Tyson's going to get some you know interest um we've gotten a few calls there um obviously the tough thing is with you know what Ben thinks about Tyson what I think about Tyson what our locker room thinks about Tyson um that's a really tough decision for us um

But for Tyson as well, I think he would have an opportunity to go and perform for our team and do some really good things.

But again, you've got to weigh the short-term and long-term.

So now what's the cost of replacement to get someone like Tyson?

We spent a lot of time developing him.

Ben spent a lot of time developing him.

So you've got to replace that as well.

So interesting dynamic there that we're going to have to work through.

knows that for the quarterback play, it's consistency.
