That's my GM! Love this guy and what he's done for our team for so many years now. He's down to Earth and understands what's important in the offseason, unlike some previous regimes.

Top 5 GM in the league. And picks like Wirfs, Evans, and Winfield are proof of that!

Best GM in the NFL. Love this guy.

I always love listening to Jason. Such a good personality. Always smiling. Class act.

Lavonte David has 3 All-Pro seasons and he wasn't invited to the Pro Bowl in any of those seasons. The same thing happened to Antoine Winfield Jr. trhis year.

Yep, and that's exactly where that chip on Jason's shoulder came from. When Rich asked him what he meant by the Bucs not getting attention or recognition, my mind went immediately to how so many of Tampa's players have been snubbed time and time again.

Yes, there are more shiny places in the NFL than "just Tampa". Cowboys, Rams, Giants, Eagles etc. get much more attention than the Bucs. Like last season a lot of people presumed that they would come out with 2-5 wins, not more.

Jason is the braintrust in Tampa. His Draft Expertise is unparalleled. And his ability to keep quality free agents is amazing. Mastering the Cap is so Important and no one is better at it. I am confident that Baker will be our starting QB for at least 3 more years. He deserves it and as Licht has said repeatedly, we are not REBUILDING. Keeping Baker makes that a reality.

Jason really is so wholesome for NFL GM standards and just in general. He’s true to his true north type self and that should be appreciated these days w/ the caliber of human beings that exist!

Best hire by the Glazer family, ever.

Licht is the man!!! Great interview as usual.

Definitely can acknowledge and respect what Jason is saying as a titans fan. No one mentions us, people in the media like Rich always wanna trade away our great players. Hopefully they get Baker back and he can use that edge to win more

Building the Bakerneers ❤🎉❤

I feel exactly what Jason is talking about....and it's a bit weird that Rich doesn't get it. Let's not forget nobody even gave the Bucs a shot at their division.

Haha, Rich either understood why he wasn't mentioned or was told ahead of time. There are still so many people that believe he is a stud and can't believe we wouldn't want him back.

Listening to this as baker just resigned. LFG

I wish Rich would’ve asked him about the team grades. How does the team plan to improve those grades and how does he think it affects the franchise

The Patriots, Chiefs, Rams and Bucs all got D's and F's. These are the 4 franchises that have won the Super Bowl since 2018. So I don't think it affects much.

Like Tony Dungy...hiring JL was an organization changing hire

I'll never forget Evans making Ramsey look like a rookie... twice. And that doesn't mean Ramsey isn't as good as advertised. Just that Mike is even better.

Honestly, drafting up for Arroyo was really his only true blunder.

The fact Jason Licht has never won GM of the Year, is truly criminal.

I hope Baker takes less than 35 mio. and gets some good shots for a championship ring. 4 years 120 mio would be ok for team and Baker.

Tampa bay have a good culture especially since tom plAyed there they seem to have picked up the torch he carried and they seem to make their players feel wanted and cherished that counts for a lot as players and agents talk to each other and any talented player who feels out on a limb in their situation can now mention Tampa as a landing spot as tom Brady was prior to his bucs spell

I have a bad feeling about the Mayfield situation: I don't see him wanting anything BELOW the Derek Carr contract (150 / 4 years / 100 guaranteed), and that seems beyond what the Bucs can afford. We'll see.

All those Baker fangirl 🤡 that said Baker was going to take a home town discount because bucs were the only one to give him a chance were dead wrong. Bucs offered him 20 mil a year, his delusional side asked for 44 million a year 😂😂😂😂 Baker aunt worth no 30 plus million ESPECIALLY because of all the holes and depth they need in this TEAM game. And Baker can't carry a team like a Mahomes soooooooo. Let him go get over paid somewhere else. Draft a qb (Bo Nix, JJ McCarthy or Penix Jr ) and bring in Russell Wilson on a one year 2 million dollar deal. (He'll take that because he's getting 39 million from the Broncos) easiest division in football. And for all those Baker fangirls that said he'd take less money to stay.... 🤫🤫🤫🤐🤐 you don't know 💩💩
