So they say Baker. Could Baker Mayfield be the Steelers' next quarterback after Aaron Rodgers? NFL insider Baker Mayfield would be perfect for the Steelers as he's poised to hit free agency after the 2026. I don't know if he could hit free agency after 2026 because I think he gave them boys until when was it?

0

29.765 - 38.815 James "Deebo" Harrison

I think he gave him to a training camp to get a chance to, I guess, you know, get a deal done or however it may be.

Chapter 2: What does Joel Bitonio's retirement mean for the Browns?

38.895 - 50.528 James "Deebo" Harrison

I don't know why we're already talking about a quarterback for the Steelers next year, dude. Like, we're talking about... I mean, I ain't gonna lie, but I would talk about it. I mean, I guess if it was Joe Burrow, you know what I'm saying? If it was Joe Burrow, I would do that.

Chapter 3: How do California taxes affect NFL players like Myles Garrett?

50.668 - 81.489 James "Deebo" Harrison

But Mike Flores... I ain't tripping. If it's Mike Florio, dude, if... Like, he seems to think that, what did he say? He said Baker Mayfield would be perfect in Pittsburgh. He would be perfect. He said, I know they would like to get off of the train of old veteran quarterbacks. Baker ain't that old either, though. But, I mean, he's a spring chicken compared to Aaron Rodgers.

Chapter 4: What is the current competition for the Vikings' quarterback position?

82.511 - 105.811 James "Deebo" Harrison

I would make a beeline, he said, for Baker Mayfield if I'm Mike McCarthy and stillers. I get through the season and my options are Will Howard and Drew Aller or Mason Rudolph. I'm doing whatever it takes to get to Baker Mayfield and to get Baker Mayfield in Pittsburgh. So that's what he thinks. I don't know about that.

Chapter 5: How does the Steelers' quarterback situation impact their future?

106.913 - 138.068 James "Deebo" Harrison

What are you thinking? Me? I don't know. I would say yes. I would say it would really have to depend on what true development you saw in your players first. So we don't know. We still have no clue of what Drew or Will can do. Drew just got there. Will was hurt. Like, we had no idea. Like, so... If that became to where like it was like, OK, it was a toss up, throw up in the air.

0

138.348 - 153.085 James "Deebo" Harrison

If he was going to be able to or if either one of them was going to be a automatic, I see him as a starter for us next year. Then, yeah, now that's going to determine what it is that Baker is looking to get from it.

Chapter 6: What are the implications of Baker Mayfield's potential free agency?

153.866 - 170.734 James "Deebo" Harrison

And assuming was his last deal, three year, 100 million. You know, he's either looking for that right now. He's 29. He's looking for that right now. And if not more, and they're obviously, I guess they're balking on it a little bit.

Chapter 7: What are the reactions to Joel Bitonio's career achievements?

170.934 - 193.295 James "Deebo" Harrison

And he's, he didn't gave him a deadline that they got to get the deal done by training camp. So if they don't get that deal done by training camp, then he's like, ain't no deal to get done. And I'm out of here. If we are in that, I don't know if, if he comes wanting, you know, 35, 40 million. Do we even think about that versus what may be out there?

0

193.355 - 213.978 James "Deebo" Harrison

And like I said, it's a whole bunch of other stuff that got to happen before we even get to that point, like where we going to be at in the draft, you know, like what we going to be like. We already going to be last, you know what I'm saying, because we're about to win the Super Bowl. So, you know, is it something that we can get done, package, whatever, toss? I don't know.

214.038 - 216.18 James "Deebo" Harrison

Ooh, I hate to say this.

217.634 - 243.983 James "Deebo" Harrison

Go ahead. I don't know why that just went through my head. Say it. What you thinking, Deebo? If the deal can't be done with Lopez, I might have to switch him off for a couple first-round picks. Whoa, hell. Damn, I don't even know why I thought of that. No, no, no, don't do that. Listen, man, I don't even know why I did it. Don't do that, don't do that. He's young.

244.063 - 246.086 Joel Bitonio

I know we're homegrown. We can't do nothing.

246.206 - 269.722 James "Deebo" Harrison

I'm just telling you what went through my head. That was all. Okay, I'm glad you told me. I threw my GM hat on. I was trying to get a quarterback in the first day on the first pick, and I know. That went in one ear and out the other. That was GM thoughts, man. They just flow through your head crazy something. You know what I'm saying? Nah, this is what I'm saying. We're going to run this year.

269.822 - 270.103

Oh, yeah.

270.143 - 293.01 James "Deebo" Harrison

We got to sign. We got to sign. We got to sign that point-blank period. Point-blank period. But with this Baker Mayfield thing, I just don't see that happening, especially with – us having two guys that like Mason Rudolph, I don't think he's going to be there. So I don't even think that's a name that really should have been thrown into it.

Chapter 8: How do Super Chats influence fan engagement in the NFL?

397.69 - 416.187 James "Deebo" Harrison

But we're trying to figure out, moving forward, what are all the options? Let's lay all the chips on the table. Because if you're saying, if it's Joe Burrow, I'm running over everything. I don't care who else was on our roster. You make complete sense. We're going to go get him when we need him. But with what we got going on now, if Joe Burrow's not there, we can sit there, chill.

416.328 - 452.391 James "Deebo" Harrison

If Drew is the other guy, what does it look like? We can take our time. Yeah, for sure, for sure. Hey, Joe, man, we got some news. We got some news over here. What up? Cleveland. Brown, seven-time Pro Bowler, five-time All-Pro guard. You know who he is. Joe... Antonio. Antonio. Shout out to Joe. Antonio is retired from NFL at 12 seasons, Joe. Hey. Yes. Remember that great offensive line, Joe?

0

453.813 - 475.687 James "Deebo" Harrison

Yep. Y'all sure it up? What happened? We had to go get... First of all, let's talk about Joe. It makes me feel so good. No, because I wanted to get Joe. We didn't want to just skip until we got... We had to get Lyman to replace my man, Joe. Because Joe, great player, 12 years in the league, seven Pro Bowls, five All-Pros.

476.088 - 493.237 James "Deebo" Harrison

The model of consistency he had was the first... He passed Joe Thomas in snaps. You know what I'm saying? So just when I was there... when you got players like Joe Pantonio, seven Pro Bowls, when you were just coming in there, doing what you got to do every single day, worked pale, was the captain of the team for a bunch of years.

493.578 - 514.624 James "Deebo" Harrison

And like Deebo, you always laugh, but when you don't have success and then you have players like Joe that come in and do exactly what a team, what a coach, what a GM, what a championship team needs, what a championship, what championship teams are looking for, I always just admire that. So when I play, I play with Joe. I play with Joe Thomas.

514.804 - 533.34 James "Deebo" Harrison

And those dudes, when he came in his rookie year, he was right next to Joe T and was able to play for such a long time and just a model level of consistency. He didn't say too much, but the dudes came in there. You know, those offensive linemen, they just grown men. They don't do nothing flashy. He had a truck. He chilled. He didn't say nothing. He had his wife. He had his family.

533.681 - 552.557 James "Deebo" Harrison

And it just was Joe. He just smooth. You knew he was about business. It wasn't no... He would joke around with you and stuff. But end of the day, Joe's coming in here to do his job. He got a job to do. If you ask him what's going on, he knows exactly what to do. He's never not on time. He's always professional. Always just carried himself at a very high character.

552.857 - 560.183 James "Deebo" Harrison

So when you see dudes in the league just moving around and you just see grown men on your team that you respect and you know that they did it the right way...

560.163 - 585.31 James "Deebo" Harrison

love him and he he deserves everything that he gets so i think he's a future hall of famer honestly so it was him and joe t those two dudes and alex smith alex mack i had like legitimate offensive lineman that we played for the browns that just were work pal dudes lunch lunch work pals just came in there did their jobs every actually we have uh we have what he said it is a retirement press conference listen joe play garden nfl
