“In my opinion, to this day, they should have franchise tagged Jones, gave him a one-year prove-it, and gave Barkley the contract. We know that didn't happen, and then the rest is history. Daniel Jones is a hell of a player. Barkley was a generational talent. You put your money where you know the safe contract is, and you say Jones, go out there, do it again. We did not do that.”

“Professional sports and the NFL in particular has the largest rolodex in the world. There's no business sector that the NFL doesn't work with.”

“The one conclusion I have drawn is that they lack a plan. I don't think they have a plan for their talent and coaches haven't exploited the growth of these players.”
