Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. All right, Boomer and Geo coming to you live from the Bill Ford Tough Studio on the Fan and CBS Sports Network. Red Pocket Mobile fan line brought to you by your new ultimate cell carrier, Red Pocket Mobile. And that number is 888-808-1019.
Would you believe me if I told you, now this is before the draft, this is before free agency, so it's early still, but that the Miami Dolphins have a lower over-under win total going into 2026 than the New York Jets. Yes, I would believe that simply because it looks like Miami is tearing the whole thing completely down. Yep.
And it looks like the Jets with the draft picks and the free agency money and the new coaching hires are trying to become legitimate winners again. Yeah, they need to. Aaron Glenn needs to win. Well, it's the perception around both teams. So you have a new coach, a new GM down there. They've got to make a decision on Tua, which means that most likely he's going to be gone.
And they may end up doing what the Broncos did with Russell Wilson, just eating the dead cap money where you can. And just move on. And like I said yesterday to you, whether or not... You believe it. I wonder whether or not Steve Ross, the owner of the Dolphins, had said to his new GM and coach, look, guys, I'm going to give you three years to fix this thing. Do what you got to do.
I'm not worried about winning right now, which would really be a hard thing for a fan to hear from an owner. But maybe the owner is giving them free reign to do what they think is right.

Chapter 2: What are the top draft prospects being discussed in this episode?
Also, if this is going to be a stacked of a draft coming up in 2027 with the quarterback position along with Arch Manning and others, then maybe that's what they're looking for. Maybe this is a full tank year for them. What do you think the Giants over-under number is before free agency and before the draft? I'm going to say their number is, I'm going to say 7.5. Yep, you nailed it, 7.5.
And obviously it's much higher this year than it has been on previous two years. Yeah, and it may even go up depending on what happens with free agency in the draft. But right now the Eagles 10.5, Cowboys 8.5, Commanders 7.5, Giants 7.5. And then when you see what they do, listen, this has a lot to do with two things.
Number one, the new head coach, and number two, the quarterback coming into his second year. And then if you want to add on to that, then it's going to be the free agent money that's going to be spent and the draft picks that they make. If they make a pick at number five and it's one of these wide receivers that's ready to go right out of the gate, that number is going to go up.
Yeah, well, I mean, absolutely, and as well it should. And the interesting thing about this draft, all right, so one major quarterback, Fernando Mendoza, we know that. We all believe he's going to the Raiders with the number one overall pick. The interesting thing about this draft, there are two top-end edge rushers, okay, the kid out of Texas Tech and the kid out of Miami.
Those guys are bona fide edge-rushing players, which is one of the most important positions in a league, as evidenced by the amount of money that that position is making, given the influence that they have on games. The other players that are at the top of this draft tend to be in positions that don't usually get a lot of attention. You know, salary. They don't get a lot of love.
It's kind of like the tight end linebacker safety positions. You know, those are not the premier positions. And whether it be Arvell, Reese, or anybody else, they are really tremendous football players, but their value at the top of the draft isn't really what it – They want edge rushers, wide receivers, and quarterbacks and tackles. Yeah, of course. And I would also say defensive tackles too.
You know, if it's like Jalen Carter who fell in the draft because of what happened down in Georgia with a car accident where somebody died and he fell to the Eagles at number 10. He would have been a top five pick had that not happened. The fact that he actually got picked 10th tells you how good he really was coming out of college given the circumstances he was under.
Yeah.
Right, and he was drafted by a team that wasn't going to get a lot of criticism because the Philadelphia Eagles were, I mean, and still are one of the premier organizations, and Howie Roseman is someone that's all respected.

Chapter 3: How does Aaron Glenn view the direction of the Miami Dolphins?
The audio was weird. Yeah, it didn't sound like him, so I'll see if I can find it. Maybe he had a cold or something. All these ex-Jets coaches become head coaches elsewhere. which lets you know what the rest of the NFL thinks about the Jets organization and not the guys that come through here. It's that, oh, you went there and turned into an idiot? Well, we can turn you back into a smart person.
Reports say the Cowboys have an offer to make Brandon Aubrey the highest paid kicker in the league, maybe even in league history. Apparently he wants more. So that is right now at a little bit of an impasse. And then we also heard from your guy in Minnesota, Rob Brzezinski, the executive vice president of the team.
He was asked about Kevin O'Connell wanting to have a more competitive quarterback room going forward and how you go about doing that. It's just about exploring every potential opportunity. We need to have a baseline quarterback play to be successful. Every organization does. K.O. has talked a lot about J.J. McCarthy and the confidence that we have in him.
He's been through some adversity from an injury standpoint. He's a great person.
That's it. He's a great guy. He works hard, though, for sure. And then the second part of this.
The game is really important to him. And so, like any room in our building as far as positions, we want the best competition.
In the quarterback room, so we shall see. Hearing him say he's a great guy reminds me of last night at the State of the Union where Trump goes, got the communist mayor in New York City. Nice guy. Nice guy. I think he's a really nice guy. Terrible policies, but nice guy. I did see that. The guy's going to suck in the NFL. He just is. He doesn't have it.
I'm just telling you right now, you can smell it. You can smell it. Regarding J.J. McCarthy, by the way. Meantime, the Knicks were in Cleveland last night. Thomas Bryant comes in and hits a three-pointer. Two-minute mark, and the Knicks at that point down by 21. It was 108-87 with that three. 109-94 was the final as the Cavs beat New York. Here was Mike Brown. We just couldn't score consistently.
I thought we had some decent looks throughout the course of the game, but we couldn't knock a shot down. One of the things we have to try to do better, especially offensively, is play with pace.
