1
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: Wow, Matt producers back on the scene and off a layoff.

2
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 1: I'm respectfully going to request you give us your very

3
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:34,959
Speaker 1: best how for what transpired last night? Ahem you defense? Defense, defense?

4
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: Hey two in a row four, Fincho two in a

5
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: row four, Fincho two in a row four Fincho, Holy cow.

6
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: So good. Last night, the Minnesota Timberwolves won one of

7
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: the strangest games many have seen in the history of

8
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: the NBA. Welcome to nine to noon. Who went to

9
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,959
Speaker 1: sleep or left the arena when Kad and Super Special

10
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 1: Rockets opened a thirteen point lead in overtime and they

11
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 1: did so in lickety split fashion. So Finchy calls a

12
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,679
Speaker 1: time out and preaches focus over frustration, men, focus over frustration.

13
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: So what happens next? A fifteen to run to close

14
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: the game and hung just the dirtiest loss on the

15
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: Houston Rockets, who were inches from owning the Western Conference

16
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: tiebreaker against our beloved hol and a two and oher

17
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: season series lead over our beloved Timberwolves. Covin and Clapp

18
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: For what happened to Minneapolis last night? Wow, holy cow.

19
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: Here's some historical context to what transpired last night, and

20
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: welcome to nine to noon. Great to have Nordo Beck

21
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: on the scene. And it's your buddy, Paul Allen. Now

22
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: teams were oh and one eighty oh and one eighty

23
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: went down ten points or more in overtime the last

24
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: thirty years. KD, it's one in one eighty. Now, damn

25
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: the box, Alan Horton that Wolves radio via X and

26
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: I can't believe this just happened. Minnesota led by eleven

27
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: with three and a half minutes to go. Houston then

28
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: went on a thirteen to two run to force overtime.

29
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 1: Houston started overtime on a thirteen to oh run. Minnesota

30
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: then went fifteen oh with that run to win it incredible.

31
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 2: Doing a row four finch out.

32
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: So but by finchy faith, I mean they were having

33
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: none of it last night with those Houston rocket runs.

34
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 1: By the way, in the game, Anthony Edwards missed his

35
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: fifth in a row. Jaden McDaniels continued to look the

36
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: part offensively. My man had twenty five and he was

37
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: part of putting Hof. Kevin Durant on one of his

38
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: worst shooting games of the season. But then KD got

39
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: hot and kd's Hof and then Jaden McDaniels had to

40
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: leave the game with cramps and he didn't come back,

41
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 1: and then in the fourth quarter he gets hurt. KD

42
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: takes off spark plug Iyo Desumu was a day of

43
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: scratch with a sore calf, and old nos Reed lost

44
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: his cool early in ot on a bad call by

45
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: Scott Foster. By the way, that's a referee. Scott Foster

46
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: and Nasrie got thrown out early in overtime. Oh yeah,

47
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: Stifel Steifel Tower had a million block shots in the

48
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 1: game and he was changing the game and he fouled

49
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: out in regulation. Oh, I mean, we're getting killed with

50
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: just a few minutes to go. Kad was an unstoppable force,

51
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: and even the most dedicated fans, maybe this side of

52
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: King of the Rubes Jimmy Knutson, they were heading right

53
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: for the doors because it was sneaking up on midnight

54
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: and Rubes got things to do the next day. Well,

55
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 1: those dedicated fans, they may have been trying to pick

56
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 1: locks to get back into Target Center when they heard

57
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: the roar, the comeback and Finchy preaching focus not frustration.

58
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: Conley Mike Connley, who know nails a three with two

59
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: forty five to go, in ot old school, best School,

60
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: leaving it all on the line out there for the howl.

61
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: Slow Mo Kyle Anderson, Slow Mo tips in a Julius

62
00:04:55,800 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: Randall miss and gets fouled for the three point play.

63
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 1: Way to go slow Mo. After that, our hal forced

64
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: an eight second violation because the defense was so tenacious

65
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: the Rockets couldn't get it past half court. It reminded

66
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: me of the time Nordo was court side and he

67
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: watched Josha Koge put James Harden on a compensated anxiety

68
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 1: attack because he couldn't get it by mid court. I

69
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 1: mean they couldn't get it by mid court overtime History

70
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: History forced an eight second violation because the defense was

71
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: so tenacious that the Rockets were like, damn, we need

72
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: a true point guard. We needed a true point guard.

73
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: At that moment, I was like, if you think Freddie

74
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: van Vliet, Vernon Maxwell or Sam Cassell are going to

75
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: come join that covenant, you are sadly mistaken. I always

76
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 1: love that one. There were members of the eighty five

77
00:05:54,800 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: Bears watching that defense and smiling from afar. So then

78
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: slow Mo hits de Vincenzo with an awesome pass for

79
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: the layup and fans who left now they're banging on

80
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: the Dilemmian Come on. I can hear the roar of

81
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: the how they're banging on the doors outside the arena

82
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 1: to get back in and be part of history. Minute

83
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: and a half to go, Julius catches fire and makes

84
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: a layup while blowing by the great Shingoon. So from

85
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: fifteen down, make that thirteen down in ot to three,

86
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: thirteen down in overtime to just three and these Rockets

87
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: they're having a compensated anxiety attack and we could see it.

88
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 1: They just want to leave the premises and get to

89
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,719
Speaker 1: the comfy playing for the bou Ray game. They're thinking

90
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 1: about the bou Ray game as we're spinning FINCHI was

91
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: calling all the right plays and frustration indeed was all

92
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: folk and ferocity. Anthony Edwards was jumping so high on

93
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: the bench while injured during that comeback. I became concerned

94
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: he was going to like hurt his knee or his toe.

95
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: I always love that one. Instead, the only thing being

96
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: broken were the hearts of the Houston Rockets. Ell Dante

97
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 1: with a cold blood of three. Now we're tied. Who

98
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: knew it is crazy?

99
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 2: Let me in.

100
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: Then Julius drains a little pull up shot and we

101
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: have the lead in historic fashion with eight point eight

102
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: seconds to go. Are you kidding me with all this?

103
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: But this is Minnesota sports. This is Minnesota sports, ladies

104
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: and gentlemen. This is the masochistic covenant. It is I

105
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: always love that one. So of course it all just

106
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: has to be mind blowing and difficult, and Tenure is right.

107
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 1: We're on the right side of history. Boys. Then Julius

108
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: fowls durant with three seconds left in overtime, and the

109
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: Rockets up to that point they were just twenty three

110
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: for twenty three at the foul line. So Durantula walks

111
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: up to the line and the eyeballs the rim. Jimmy

112
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: Kay holding up his house sign, has his wolve's foam finger,

113
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: King of the Rubes, trying to get Durantela off his game.

114
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: H O left staring at the rim. He's got his

115
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: hat with wolf ears on it. Durantula miss is the

116
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 1: free throw? Are you kidding me? No way? They were

117
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: twenty three of twenty three from the line and he missed.

118
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 1: Katie purposely missed the next one. The bounce didn't go

119
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: the way of the Rockets, and hiss Stoy was intact.

120
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: It's the greatest overtime comeback in at least the last

121
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: thirty years of the NBA. Yeah, it's two in a row,

122
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: four Fincho. Two in a row, four Fincho. So awesome,

123
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: so wonderful, so improbable. Now the head coach joined yesterday.

124
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: Chris Finch joined nine to noon yesterday, as he's wont

125
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: to do in weekly fashion. And I think I I

126
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: think I need a new plan with our fincy chats.

127
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to start tagging every question with hey, like,

128
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 1: Iyo Desumu is averaging eight rebounds a game over the

129
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: last four games, and you've been harping on him a

130
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: little bit to rebound better, and then he answers, and

131
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: then I got to be like, oh, yeah, by the way,

132
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: is he playing tonight? I always love that one. I mean,

133
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: holy cow, make it Iyo Iyo Desumu sound like a

134
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: cross between Josh Gidty, Sam Cassel and Tiny Archibald. And

135
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: he scratches Finchy, Holy Cow. Western Conference Standing's update, by

136
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: the way, because everything's all congested and claustrophobic and hot

137
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: height that's special. It remains that the Lakers beat offul

138
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: Indiana and Denver beat Cooper Flags bunch, the Western Conference

139
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:19,319

00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 1: nineteen assists. Oh uh, safe to say big boy wants

146
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: Fifty three for Jamal against a tenacious Naji Marshall Cooper

147
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 1: Flag led Dallas Mavericks team Joker, it's all on the line.

148

00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: nineteen assists. Just messing around.

150
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 3: How good would it be if we if we matched

151
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 3: up both the Wild and the Wolves first round series,

152
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 3: the five to four Denver in Minnesota? Somehow Doal tracks

Speaker 3: the puck and the hardwood round one of the respective playoffs.

155
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,079
Speaker 1: I'd be sweet. Well, one of us is going to

156
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: be wearing out the couch in the living room of

157
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 1: my daughter's apartment in a neighborhood called Clarkson. I always

158
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: love that one, because we're going to be out there

159
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: every day for all of that doing drive buys in

160
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,199
Speaker 1: the locker room and the mile get high city. That

161
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 1: comeback man just still has everybody all wide eyed. Now

162
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 1: the Western Conference, all right, so this thing is super special.

163
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: The Celtics smacked ok C last night and San Antonio

164
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: has won seven in a row. The San Antonio Spurs

165
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: are hunting the top seed in the West. Yeah, and

166
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: that's in. That's impressive. They are only two behind the champs.

167
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: The Spurs are three and one versus Okasee this season.

168
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: San Antonio has won seven in a row. And I

169
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 1: have a grandiose prediction to make san Antonio has won

170
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: seven consecutive games, and I predict they finished the season

171
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: potentially winning sixteen in a row or going fifteen to

172
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: one a worse SGA free throw merchant pay attention. Come in,

173
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: they're coming. Wemby might run. He might run. The team

174
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,680
Speaker 1: That truly is the target at which to shoot in

175
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: the entire NBA. But you know what, the Spurs didn't

176
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: set an NBA record for the greatest overtime comeback in

177
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: the history of the NBA. That honor goes to a

178
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: Timberwolves team that finished with the deep bench mob like

179
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: Terren Shannon Junior didn't play a minute during the game.

180
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: He has to play in overtime plus nine.

181
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 3: Go go fighting to LINEI well, how about just getting

182
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 3: thirty minutes out of Mike Conley last night?

183
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 1: Jeez, that's why the that game.

184
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 3: Felt like this season in a two hour presentation, yea,

185
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 3: where you had my goodness, I love this cat iod Assumo.

186
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 3: Oh now he can't play. So the knicks and the

187
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,319
Speaker 3: injuries and all of those things. We got guys losing

188
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,959
Speaker 3: their cool and getting ejected. We get to complain about

189
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 3: Scott Foster. So the referees are in the mix.

190
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: Now I's Reid thinking Scott Foster's fixing a game. Scott

191
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 1: didn't want to hear that, so he got tossed. Hey,

192
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 1: frustration of Rudy.

193
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 3: There are moments where he's a defensive genius there or

194
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 3: other where he's a knucklehead. Okay, we got that. No

195
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 3: ant to be found. The defense is absolutely hideous. That

196
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 3: allows the Rockets to find that run to force overtime.

197
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 1: So we're all negative on that.

198
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 3: Then they start ot the way they did, and then

199
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 3: the lockdown the idea of these guys can play defense

200
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 3: when they want to, when they need to, they do

201
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 3: and you get out with the victory.

202
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,319
Speaker 1: But of course Kevin Durant's going to go to the line.

203
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 3: Of course he's going to get the foul and he's

204
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 3: going to find a bucket and we're going to extend

205
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 3: this thing. No chance, Rockets don't get out alive with

206
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 3: the Do you hear any freaking misses? One man, it's

207
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 3: the whole season in a two hour game.

208
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: Hiss stowey Jade McDaniels, I still has some significant a

209
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: topic to him, specifically with his offense. And when Anthony

210
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: Edwards returns this Saturday, which he could return this Saturday,

211
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: yours truly is very curious to see what happens with

212
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: old Jayden McDaniels because he has been the best offensive

213
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: player for this team without Anthony Edwards suiting up and

214
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 1: playing games. Oh, by the way, the team is four

215
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: and one over the last five. So all we do

216
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: is set history. I make history. The Pistons are here

217
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon and sands the great kid Cunningham, and we

218
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: will see what our beloved how offers for a noncore

219
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: a day. Anthony Edwards quite possibly could return. This is

220
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: just so much fun. We got to give you a

221
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: howl again. Seriously, hiss stowy. All right, here's the deal.

222
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: We are one month from the NFL Draft, and we

223
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 1: tagged that hard today. Also, former Twins general manager Thadd

224
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: Levine joins during the final segment, and I promise you

225
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: will dig that one. But we are going to call

226
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: an audible. This is a listener related audible if you

227
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: are so inclined. Now, next segment was is and will

228
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: be scheduled as the NFL Draft being a month from today,

229
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 1: and we got a lot on our minds. So we

230
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: got that and it's written and we're ready. However, things

231
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: change up in the Love Covenant when you make history

232
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: and overtime t wolves. Talkback to next segment. If you

00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: like dan Orlowski of VESPN saying Alabama's ty Simpson is

260
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: the best quarterback in the upcoming NFL draft, but those

261
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: topics have been left in the wake of a keen

262
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,919
Speaker 1: turnip speed by the history makers and the talkbacks to

263
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: the free iHeart audio app near there. Jimmy k King

266
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,399
Speaker 4: gonna put the tail on, if you're gonna put the

267
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 4: wolf ears on, if you're gonna put the foam finger on,

268
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 4: if you're gonna bring the Howler, stay for the game,

269
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,640
Speaker 4: don't leave. I know they went on a twenty four

270
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 4: to two run, Hey, but we had that fifteen oer

271
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 4: run coming just to smack him in the face and question,

272
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 4: are Kyle Anderson and Chris Finch related? I have never

273
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 4: seen a coach love a player more than he loves him.

274
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 4: I'm gonna start calling him Kyle Finch.

275
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: I always love that one. He'd be slow Movefinchy, Finchy,

276
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: King of the Robes. Ain't leaving no King of the Robes,

277
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 1: Jimmy Knuts and Jimmy Kay, he ain't leaving the spine Tingler.

278
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: This's go guy. He has his foam finger, he has a

279
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: super special like Wolve's horn from back in the KG days,

280
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: the horn through which he used to cheer for Wally Zerbiak.

281
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: He ain't leaving. He's not going to be banging on

282
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 1: that door outside of Target Center looking to pick locks

283
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 1: to get back in to be part of history.

284
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 3: He's there when the door's open, when the gate's open,

285
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 3: he's there, and he leaves as the custodial staff comes through,

286
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,159
Speaker 3: sweeping popcorn out from in between the rows. He's got

287
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 3: his lucky Wolve's foot. He doesn't Rabbit's foot. More talkbacks here.

288
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 1: Wait, yes, Meanwhile, with the NFL Draft a month from today,

289
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: I have it down to running back, defensive tackle, or

290
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: cornerback in round one for the Minnesota Vikings. And the

291
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 1: closer we get to the draft, the more I begin

292
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: to hear how deep of a defensive tackle draft it

293
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 1: truly is, and kind of from the under the cover

294
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: of darkness, because a lot of people are talking about

295
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: the tight ends. But that's left in the wake of

296
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 1: a keen turn of howling speed, if only for now,

297
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: because we're history makers. Teams trailing by ten points or

298
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 1: more in overtime over the last thirty years, we're o

299
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: and one eighty kd shngoon a team Elajahwan. It's now

300
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: one and one eighty. I always love that one.

301
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,360
Speaker 5: How about that victory last night? Granted you could say

302
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 5: you don't want to let it get to overtime, but

303
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 5: proud of how the team came together and really played

304
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 5: basketball as a team.

305
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 1: Hoping with Edward's return that they still.

306
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 5: Have the same flow with being able to pass the

307
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 5: ball and have multiple people involved. But excited to ramp

308
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 5: up for the playoffs.

309
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 1: Here boys Minnesota as the Vikings and the football crowd,

310
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 1: well they might get the National Football We might get

311
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: the National Football League Draft in twenty twenty eight. Team

312
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: president and co owner Mark Wilf joins Tuesday from the

313
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: owners meetings. Likewise for Kevin O'Connell i believe and a

314
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: general manager acting general manager beloved Briz rob Razinski. The

315
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: draft here in twenty twenty eight. How much would people

316
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: love that? They dig it? But it's not making history,

317
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 1: it's not coming back from thirteen down and ot talkback.

318
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 6: Fun win from the Wolves last night. But for some

319
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 6: of us, it's everything that's wrong with NBA regular season basketball.

320
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 6: Questionable officiating, lack of consistent effort, which is proven by

321
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 6: when they wanted it, they lock them down in overtime

322
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 6: and load management. So, as an old school guy, PA,

323
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,640
Speaker 6: help me understand how I should embrace modern day regular

324
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 6: season NBA basketball.

325
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: It's it's easy, and it's a two parter. First, it's

326
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 1: your choice to follow, love, hell or like whatever you want,

327
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: and you having that choice is very important tonine to noon. Secondly,

328
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 1: if you want to watch hyperactive defense where they're slapping

329
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: the floor, getting down in their sliding position and sliding

330
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 1: with like the Darius A. Cuffs of the world, well

331
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 1: you have the NCAA Tournament tonight. I always love that one.

332
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 1: And maybe somebody won't make history because history was made

333
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 1: at Target Center last night.

334
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 7: Hello, my beautiful people, this is Max Remigan. I'm going

335
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 7: to touch base on both of the talkback topics today.

336
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 2: The Wolves are probably the.

337
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 7: Most confusing team in the NBA. They look incredible, then

338
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,679
Speaker 7: they look terrible, and games like last night give me

339
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 7: hope that we can do something great, but we'll probably

340
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 7: turn around and do something terrible next game Sunday.

341
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get my.

342
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 7: It's up for the draft. Vikings just need to take

343
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 7: the best player available, get well rounded, top of the

344
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 7: line athletes, conform them into players we need to.

345
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: See you by. Well, when they take Dante Corleone in

346
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,679
Speaker 1: round number three and he's a new h Casey Hampton

347
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: and Vince will Fork all in one, he's a fire hydrant.

348
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: Nobody can run against us, Well, then we're gonna be

349
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: looking back at this conversation thinking about that. How we're

350
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 1: gonna be thinking about that? How because history was made

351
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: last night at Target Center. Now Saturday, Saturday is Saturday,

352
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 1: but it's two in a row four Finchow, two in

353
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 1: a row four, Fincho. That was nothing but fun last night,

354
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: and it is triggered the vast and ever expanding and

355
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 1: voluminous nine to noon covenant to opt to talk back

356
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:45,360
Speaker 1: in here there.

00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 8: To the ESPN an mouncer lady talking about Kevin Durant passing,

358
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 8: Michael Jordan coming up to Kobe Bryant coming and then

359
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 8: about Kevin Durant being this and that I'm flare all

360
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 8: of this and then clang missus the free throw. Jordan

361
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 8: wouldn't have missed the free throw, Toby wouldn't have missed

362
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 8: the free throw.

363
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, too bad, Kad go home, Sam Cassel, Vernon Maxwell,

364
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 1: Grand Bill Waiters, Ralph Sampson and Quema Lajuwan lou Lloyd

365
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: and Jim Peterson. None of those former Rockets would have

366
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 1: missed that free throw. Oh beautiful, Darantula missed the free throw.

367
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 1: Darantula missed the free throw. Man. There are some really

368
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 1: really cool Timberwolves talking top topics into which we will

369
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 1: dive maybe a little bit lokey today but certainly tomorrow

00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:44,000

Speaker 1: Minnesota Timberwolves, we respectfully say it's on you.

375
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 2: What play, Hoggy.

376
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what the largest deficit in the history

377
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: of the NHL is in the third period, but just

378
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 1: do it tonight against the back to back champs, I

379
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 1: mean Bikings thirty three to zero halftime against the Colts.

380
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 1: Come out of halftime, all the Jimmy Kay's, Jimmy Knutson's

381
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 1: King of the Rubs of the world who opted to

382
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 1: stay well, they're at us Bank stadium saying defense, defense,

383
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:39,840

384
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:44,160
Speaker 1: out to start the second half with me. Then the comeback,

385
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 1: don't call it a comeback. Viking has never been gone.

386
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 1: Made National Football League history with that comeback. Timberwolves NBA

387

Speaker 1: history with that comeback last night. So barkoff, Marshawn Marshan,

388
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,159
Speaker 1: if you're playing, I'm the great Matthew can chuck Matthew?

389
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: Could chuck Bob Rosky by his side? Be warned, it's

390
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 1: time to draft the pot go ahead and lead US

391
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: seven to one in the third period tonight. Watch those

392
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 1: seven goals just blow by you like you're tied to

393
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 1: a post. That's right where we want you.

394
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 3: NHL history is what we do, all right, regular season comebacks.

395
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: The caucus crowed NFL Draft savant John Harris next, Hey, alrighty, now,

396
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 1: welcome back. So that's what nine to Noon thinks when

397
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:46,400
Speaker 1: we ponder the NFL Draft a month away from today. Now,

398
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: our friend John Harris of Football Takeover dot Com and

399
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans Radio Network, he thinks different things and

400
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: he joins us now once again. John is the Houston

401
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 1: Texans Radio Network Sideline Analysts by Day and Football Takeover

402
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: dot Com, Savant by Night, and here comes Johnny. Let's

403
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 1: and let's learn what some of those things are. John

404
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 1: thanks for helping the radio show. And let's just paint

405
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 1: with a broad brush here. What excites you about this

406
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: year's draft? And good morning, my brother.

407
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 2: Good morning my friend. Yeah, you know it's interesting. This

408
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,439
Speaker 2: is a draft that if you need.

409
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 9: A quarterback, eh, this isn't this isn't that draft. And

410
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 9: you know how drafts are, Paul, when quarterbacks are involved,

411
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 9: it's sexy.

412
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 10: There are a lot of good talking points.

413
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 2: Dan Orlofsky's trying to drum up some of that.

414
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,919
Speaker 9: Saint Ty Simpson's better for Nanda Mendoza, but it's just

415
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 9: really not working. This to me, is kind of a

416
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,719
Speaker 9: nuts and bolts draft. This is meat potatoes, This is

417
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 9: in the trenches. This is really good interior on both sides.

418
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,719
Speaker 9: This is really good edge rushers, but it's not really

419
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,040
Speaker 9: sexy in a lot of other places. Wide receiver, it

420
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 9: good to beat, tight end, it's really good.

421
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 10: But it's just the sexy positions at.

422
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 9: Quarterbacks running backs. Although I think Jeremi loves.

423
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 2: Tremendous, they're just isn't a lot of depth at that

424
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 2: position that I think could come in and step in

425
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 2: and be impactful at twenty twenty six and early in

426
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 2: those running back careers.

427
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 9: So I feel like, if you need interior, you offensive line,

428
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 9: it's a good draft.

429
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 2: If you need edge rushers, it's a good draft for you.

430
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 9: But if you're looking for running backs and you have

431
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 9: other needs, oh man, it's gonna get a little dicey.

432
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:38,360
Speaker 9: If you need wide receivers, it's There are a lot

433
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 9: of flavors of the month, if you will, But maybe

434
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 9: not that Malik Neighbors or that Justin Jefferson that the

435
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 9: Vikings obviously were able to get in a draft at

436
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,160
Speaker 9: number twenty or twenty one many years ago.

437
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,679
Speaker 10: So it's not that sexy kind of draft.

438
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,479
Speaker 9: But it's meat and potatoes, And if you like your

439
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 9: proteins and you like some good mass potatoes.

440
00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:58,679
Speaker 2: This one's for you.

441
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,439
Speaker 1: Nine to noon happens to be infatuated with meat and potatoes.

442
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 11: But you.

443
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 1: Hit on the current NFL draft a topic, and it

444
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 1: is that well respected ESPN football analyst dan Orlowsky is

445
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:19,399
Speaker 1: saying and saying rather loudly, that Alabama's Ty Simpson is

446
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: a better quarterback than Fernando Mendoza. When it comes to

447
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 1: translating to the National Football League, you kind of whist

448
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: it away. So why is that and do you not

449
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: think it's a comparison.

450
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 9: No, I think Bernana Mendoza is the better quarterback at

451
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 9: this point.

452
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:37,680
Speaker 2: But here's the thing.

453
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 10: When we start.

454
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 9: Comparing players, I don't like when somebody tears down a

455
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 9: player to prove his point about the player he's saying

456
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 9: is better. If you're gonna tell me ty Simpson's better

457
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 9: tell me the thinks Ty Simpson does. And I think

458
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 9: ty Simpson throughout the twenty twenty five year, there were

459
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 9: some pros, especially early in season Paul that.

460
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 2: Took my breath away. I mean there was one throw

461
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 2: I think it was against Georgia that he.

462
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 9: Threw on a sideline and I'm like, wow, I don't

463
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 9: know that many quarterbacks in college football, unsless the NFL

464
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 9: can make that kind of throw. I think ty Simpson's tough,

465
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 9: he's a coach's kid, he's got I think the ability

466
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 9: to overcome adversity. But I can't make a taste for

467
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 9: him in the first round. Bernanda Mendoza.

468
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 10: When I think about projecting him.

469
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 9: Forward, I think about putting him in Quint Kubiak's offense

470
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 9: out in Las Vegas, and to me that matters.

471
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 2: I think he throws well in the run.

472
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 9: I think Bananda Mendoza is tough than a two dollars steak,

473
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 9: and I think that I want him in my locker

474
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 9: room as a leader.

475
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 10: And I think the intangibles.

476
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 2: Have to matter for a quarterback.

477
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 9: How many times have we seen the Greek gods at

478
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 9: quarterback rise up and they throw it seventy five yards

479
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 9: in a pro day, but they don't have the intangibles.

480
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 10: And I'm looking at Anthony Richardson for that reason.

481
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 9: But I think Bernanda Mendoza has tools and their things.

482
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 10: Maybe he didn't do in Indiana. He wasn't asked to

483
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 10: do some of those things. Indiana play a different style

484
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 10: of ball.

485
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 9: But I think in Quick Kubiak's offense, I think he

486
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 9: can be a gassed up Matt shab who is very

487
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 9: successful in that offense in Houston when he was playing

488
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 9: for Kyle Shanahan and then Gary Kubiak. So I think

489
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 9: Banana Mendoza can be that kind of guy. And I

490
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 9: think the Raiders have to have a rock solid leader.

491
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 9: So to me, it's a fit, probably more so than

492
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 9: this guy's better than that guy. I just think, even

493
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 9: as much as I think Banana Mendoza is going to

494
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 9: come into the league and do good things, and do.

495
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 2: Good thing right away. If you need a quarterback in

496
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 2: this draft, ball, I don't want any of them.

497
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: I'm building with the.

498
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 9: Guys in twenty twenty seven, and you know me, I'm

499
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 9: always looking ahead. That draft in twenty twenty seven could

500
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 9: have some rock stars at quarterback, and I don't know

501
00:30:58,560 --> 00:30:59,959
Speaker 9: that I want to waste a pick in twenty two,

502
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 9: twenty six on a guy that I'm trying to.

503
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 10: Shoehorn into that position.

504
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 2: When I know there are some studs coming at twenty

505
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 2: twenty seven.

506
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 10: If I can just hang on.

507
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: And get one of those guys. NFL draft a month

508
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 1: from today, and our guy John Harris with Football takeover

509
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 1: dot Com is just preaching right now. Man, that was

510
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 1: really good. And by the way, at Football takeover dot Com,

511
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna have a new mock draft next week, which

512
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 1: will be three weeks and change from the draft, and

513
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: yours truly happens to be quite excited about that. And

514
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: speaking of Football Takeover dot Com, you John the creator

515
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: and owner of football takeover dot Com. You placed an

516
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: NFL comp of Trey McBride the Arizona tight end on

517
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 1: Oregon tight end Kenyan Sadik.

518
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 9: Why I think it's hard to find somebody that compares

519
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 9: the Sadiq.

520
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 2: He's six three, two forty.

521
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 9: He blocks his guts out, and that's one of the

522
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 9: things to me, Paul, that separates this tight end group.

523
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 2: This group is deep, I mean deep deep.

524
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 9: You could probably go twenty twenty to twenty two deep

525
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 9: that are gonna get drafted. But they're all pretty similar

526
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 9: other than Sadik.

527
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 2: And Eli Stowers from Vanderbilt.

528
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 9: Sadik is built like a Greek god. He's probably got

529
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 9: about two percent body fat, which you know you don't find.

530
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 10: That many places.

531
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 9: And when I was at the Senior ball, it's funny.

532
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 9: I was standing there watching the tight ends with a

533
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 9: couple of scouts, and both of them, throughout my time

534
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 9: talking to them, they're like, Oh, these guys look good,

535
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 9: but they're not like Sadique. They're not like that guy

536
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 9: at Oregon. And so it's well known what that guy

537
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 9: can do. And at four thirty nine in the forty

538
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 9: yard dash, he probably walks into a building as the

539
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 9: fastest pass.

540
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 2: Catcher you're going to have.

541
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 9: Now, I don't think Trey McBride is quite that fast.

542
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 9: But when I think about play style, when I think

543
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 9: about the effort, the willingness to block in splits, own situations,

544
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,719
Speaker 9: to pass, protect when needed, that's what I see in Sadiq.

545
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 10: But I also see a.

546
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 9: Guy that in due time will become as effective in

547
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 9: the passing game because of that speed, because of his

548
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 9: athletic ability. Like Trey McBride, I think Sadiq can be

549
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 9: that kind of guy.

550
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 2: And so when it came down to man, who do

551
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 2: I cop him to?

552
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 9: It was hard. It was really hard because Sadiq can

553
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 9: play all the different tight end spots.

554
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 1: He can play.

555
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 9: Fullback, he play HVAC, he can line up in line

556
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 9: because he'll battle in the in the run game. A

557
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 9: lot of these tight ends in this class won't. Sadiq will,

558
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 9: And that reminded me a lot of McBride m seeing

559
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 9: up close, being down on the sidelines, McBride e motes

560
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 9: he's very emotional.

561
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 2: He runs hard every.

562
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 10: Time he catches the ball.

563
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 2: He plays the game like it's his last, you know, the.

564
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 9: Old thing goes to play the game like it's your last.

565
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 9: He does and I feel like Sadiq's got that same

566
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 9: quality and he's gonna play the game.

567
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 2: He's gonna be a big time steam threat.

568
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 9: I hope that he falls at twenty.

569
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 2: Eight, and it would be a fall.

570
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 9: I would be shocked if Sadik's out of twenty eight,

571
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 9: but if he did. For the Texans, we really kind

572
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 9: of with free agency have done some things.

573
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 2: That we can kind of open ourselves up to the

574
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 2: best player available. If Kenyan Sadik is there, I run

575
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 2: the ticket up. I want Kenyan seek in Houston front.

576
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 10: But I know that it's probably not gonna happen because.

577
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 2: Are a lot of teams that want an athlete like

578
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:30,919
Speaker 2: that in their passing game for sure.

579
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 1: All right, John Well, Well, in theory with Kenyan Sadiq

580
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,760
Speaker 1: the Oregon tight m in theory, if he's like ninety

581
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 1: percent effective and alters defensive plans the way Trey McBride

582
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: does or off everything you just explained, I mean, he

583
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 1: should be at worst a top eighteen fifteen pick, right.

584
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 9: Yes, absolutely, And that's why that's why I'm hoping somebody

585
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 9: leaks something before the.

586
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,399
Speaker 10: Draft and he falls. You know how that goes fall.

587
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 9: Somebody in the media leaks something I mean from an

588
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,879
Speaker 9: NFL team and least something.

589
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:03,760
Speaker 10: Oh, Kenyan seek ends up at twenty.

590
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: Eight, that's kind of what I'm hoping.

591
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,879
Speaker 9: But yeah, he's a top fifteen player in my eyes.

592
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 9: In fact, in my mock draft, I think you'll probably

593
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 9: somewhere go top twelve. But again, sometimes teams get cute like, hey,

594
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 9: you know, maybe we'll trade down and we'll get him here.

595
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,839
Speaker 2: No, he's a top twelve player. When my Harris one

596
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 2: hundred comes out, I think he's going to be in

597
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 2: a top.

598
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: Twelve for sure. Yeah. So what you're saying is is

599
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 1: like you know, as the top three, four or five

600
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 1: picks are rolling a month from today in round one,

601
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 1: John Harris, if Kenyan Sadik happened to show up on

602
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 1: some kind of video from two years ago wearing a

603
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,839
Speaker 1: gas mask, you might not be that mad because you're like, hey,

604
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,799
Speaker 1: we can fix that gas mask thing. Just get him

605
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: down here to twenty eight. Man, that'd be sweet for

606
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 1: the Texans And sounds like Kenyon Sadiq is going to

607
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,919
Speaker 1: be a terrific player now in what ways? So think

608
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:56,959
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings all right? In what ways? Would Notre Dame

609
00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: running back Jeremiah Love help the bikes already possessing speedsters

610
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 1: like Kyler Murray, Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison.

611
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 11: What do you think about that? I, Paul, I swear

612
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 11: to you, I just got shivers when you said that,

613
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 11: when you talked about the explosiveness of that group, and

614
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 11: then to think Jeremiah.

615
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,360
Speaker 2: Love is now added to that group.

616
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 9: I mean, what offensive coach would screw that up?

617
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: That would be incredible.

618
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 9: Now, there obviously would have to be some movement.

619
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 2: To go get him.

620
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 9: Now, we've seen some weird things in the past where

621
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 9: Randy Moss.

622
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:40,760
Speaker 10: Fell to the Minnesota Vikings.

623
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 2: And look, Randy Moss had a.

624
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 9: He had some past dealings that got him in trouble,

625
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 9: and some teams backed away they weren't sure about that,

626
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,240
Speaker 9: and Randy Moss obviously fell in to the Vikings.

627
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 2: Lap and turned out to be a Hall of Famer.

628
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 9: That's not gonna happen with Jeremiah Love from that standpoint.

629
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 9: But there might be some teams that say, hey, running back,

630
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,319
Speaker 9: I you know, can you draft a running back this high?

631
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 9: That's the thing I think people that think that way.

632
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 9: I'm never gonna draft a running back that high. You

633
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:15,880
Speaker 9: have to look at the players that make defenses scared.

634
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,439
Speaker 10: Basically, what keeps a defensive.

635
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 2: Coordinator up at night?

636
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 10: Well, recite those.

637
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:27,839
Speaker 9: Names, Kyler Murray, Jordan Addison, Justin Jefferson, and Jeremiah Love.

638
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 2: Oh, that would keep people up at night.

639
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 9: And that, to me is what I think will force

640
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 9: teams not to pass.

641
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 2: On Jeremiah Love. Now, you gotta try and balance I

642
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 2: guess out.

643
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 9: With what needs you have. But if you're looking for

644
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:48,320
Speaker 9: a ball carrier, offensive weapon to put the most cheat

645
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 9: on defenses in twenty twenty six, that.

646
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 2: Is Jeremiah Love, no doubt. But if he gets to

647
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,240
Speaker 2: the Vikings at eighteen, I'm.

648
00:37:58,120 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 9: Gonna be method that we don't trade up to go

649
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 9: at eighteen. I'd bought to have him here in Houston.

650
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: Oh, you're awesome, man. Minnesota might be in the market

651
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 1: for a third receiver infected quite possibly, And you know

652
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: I'm not looking at the draft here. Let me ask

653
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,279
Speaker 1: you the question on this. Christian Kirk went to the

654
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:18,240
Speaker 1: forty nine ers on a cheapish deal. Now, his best

655
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 1: friend is Kyler Murray. I mean they played together in college,

656
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: and they played together in Arizona and their dogs. You

657
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 1: had Kirk in Houston is Is that something that should

658
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 1: have happened here for a cheapish deal for the speed

659
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,479
Speaker 1: that is Christian Kirk in the relationship with Kyler Murray.

660
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 1: What do you think about that?

661
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? I thought Christian Kirk would have been a great

662
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,720
Speaker 2: fit in Minnesota. I mean tremendous.

663
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 9: I mean he would have filled I think he would

664
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 9: have filled any sort of gap with Jordan Jefferson and

665
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,879
Speaker 9: Jordan Adison. Justin Jefferson on the outside, man, Christiane works

666
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 9: the inside.

667
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,879
Speaker 2: Oh that's a really good fit.

668
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 9: Oh jeez, now that I think about, it's probably better

669
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 9: fit in Minnesota than it is in San Francisco, especially

670
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 9: given the fact that he knows Tyler the way that

671
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 9: he does. Now, Christian's also an injury liability. There were

672
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 9: times this year that Christian was banged up and not

673
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 9: able to.

674
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 2: Go when we really needed him.

675
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 9: First couple of games of the year, middle games of

676
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 9: the year, we really needed him. Now, he showed up

677
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 9: in that Pittsburgh game in a big way in the playoffs,

678
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 9: but then in the game against the Patriots there.

679
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 2: Wasn't a lot there. So he is he really on

680
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 2: the backslide? Is he on the backside?

681
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 9: That's one thing, But if he's on the back slide,

682
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 9: that's another I just felt like Minnesota, and I know

683
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 9: you're not gonna pay the money that Jalen was gonna

684
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 9: get from the Raiders, but I just felt like Naylor

685
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 9: was the perfect guy.

686
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

687
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 2: I feel like in this.

688
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 9: Draft, Paul, and I know that's not the way you

689
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 9: really want to look, but I feel like there is

690
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 9: a there are Day three possibilities that could end up

691
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 9: being really even. Day three possibilities end up being a

692
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 9: really good fit for Minnesota. I like zach Ryot Branch

693
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 9: from out of George to play the USC to start

694
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:01,760
Speaker 9: his career.

695
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:02,959
Speaker 1: He's a Bishop.

696
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 9: Gorman kid out of Nevada, and he is he is

697
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 9: even quicker than Kirk. But again, rookie's trying to learn

698
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,320
Speaker 9: that inside slot stuff. That is tough. I saw it

699
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 9: with Jalen Knowle last year.

700
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 10: That's hard.

701
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,320
Speaker 9: They really have an issue with it, trying to learn

702
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 9: everything that's asked of them. But if you get the

703
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 9: right guy, I think you can find some of those

704
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 9: gems a little bit later in the draft. Yeah, you know,

705
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 9: the guy like Tyron Montgomery brought of John Carroll. I

706
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,439
Speaker 9: saw this guy at the senior ball and he put

707
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 9: on a show and he didn't get an invite to

708
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 9: the combine, which I was shocked. And this guy can

709
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 9: absolutely play D three guy. You know we saw with

710
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:39,760
Speaker 9: Cecil Schwartz here in Jacksonville and Houston.

711
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 2: You get a friend of mine, he played at Mount Union.

712
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,400
Speaker 9: That's the perfect kind of guy. I think Tyron Montgomery

713
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 9: and the late rounds might be a guy that Minnesota

714
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 9: could look at. But yeah, I do think that having

715
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 9: Christian Kirk, if healthy, with a really good fit with

716
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,000
Speaker 9: Kyler Murray there in Minnesota.

717
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 1: Johnny Harris Football Takeover dot Com getting in the weeds

718
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 1: with that deep dive in the John car which gave

719
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 1: the NFL one of the great tacklers in the history

720
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 1: of the game in London Fletcher. That was beautifully beautifully dropped.

721
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 1: All right, Just a few to close here for Footballtakeover

722
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 1: dot Com. LSU cornerback Mansour Delaine is that the best

723
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 1: true man corner. Go ahead and put him on an island.

724
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 1: Is that the best man corner in the draft? And

725
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 1: could he be available close to eighteen or is that

726
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:26,760
Speaker 1: a stretch?

727
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 9: I think after he ran four three, eight or whatever

728
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 9: it was, that.

729
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 1: Is pro da.

730
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,439
Speaker 9: I think he probably locked up a top ten, top

731
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:37,839
Speaker 9: twelve spot ball.

732
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 10: Yes he is.

733
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 9: He's CB one.

734
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 10: It's not even close.

735
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 9: I watched him at Virginia Tech when I saw that

736
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 9: he had transferred, so I was like, I want to

737
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,479
Speaker 9: see what this guy looks like. When I was doing

738
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,359
Speaker 9: my summer work on these guys and I saw him

739
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 9: at Virginia.

740
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 2: TECOND thought, man, LS, you got a good one. And

741
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 2: then he was even better at LSU.

742
00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 9: Then I even thought he was gonna be He is,

743
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 9: without a doubt, the best corner in this draft.

744
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:02,879
Speaker 2: But I do think corner.

745
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 9: Has got There's some dudes. You can take any of

746
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,720
Speaker 9: the corners from Tennessee. I think they can all play

747
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:08,360
Speaker 9: Colton Hood.

748
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 10: I compare it to former LSU.

749
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:12,240
Speaker 9: Cornerback Tredavious White.

750
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 2: They kind of look similar, play similar. Brandon Seize from

751
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 2: out of South Carolina transfer Famenci State is a hell

752
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 2: of a player. So I think there are some corners.

753
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 2: I think eighteen is a decent spot for.

754
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:28,439
Speaker 10: Maybe one of those guys.

755
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,959
Speaker 9: And then there's Jermont McCoy out of Tennessee who might

756
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:34,279
Speaker 9: be right there with Delane, but he missed ball twenty

757
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 9: twenty five.

758
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 2: So the medicals okay.

759
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 9: Question Mark, but I don't think Delane gets near eighteen.

760
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,239
Speaker 9: I think he's gonna end up being a top twelve

761
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 9: guy in this draft.

762
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 1: Time for two more Johnny Harris footballtakeover dot Com. Cincinnati

763
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:53,080
Speaker 1: defensive tackle Dante Corleone, three and forty pounds, true nose

764
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 1: tackle who's quick. I've been told that he pondered last

765
00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 1: year's draft and staying in college has helped him. I'm

766
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:04,799
Speaker 1: tremendously into this year's draft. If if the Vikings like him,

767
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 1: Cincinnati defensive tackle Dante Corleone, and I kind of hope

768
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 1: they do. Can you wait to like the late third round,

769
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: like pick eighty two to get this defensive tackle? And

770
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: what do you think of his game?

771
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,319
Speaker 9: That is right on, Paul, That's probably about where I

772
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 9: have Corleone and my haris one hundred.

773
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 2: I think that's probably right there. But here's what I want, Paul.

774
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:32,839
Speaker 9: I want Dte Corleone stand up in Minnesota because when

775
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 9: he has a sack, I want Paul Allen, come on, man,

776
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:39,840
Speaker 9: the voice of the Minnesota Vikings, to scream out the

777
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 9: Godfather with the sack.

778
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:43,280
Speaker 2: I mean, you got to, it's his nickname.

779
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 9: So I hope that he gets the Minnesota. But that's

780
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 9: the thing. He's really a run stuffer. I mean he's

781
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,879
Speaker 9: gonna play over the nose. He's going to control any

782
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,719
Speaker 9: center that he plays against because he is strong as

783
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 9: an ox. He's built like a brick out house. You

784
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:01,799
Speaker 9: can't move him even with double teams. And I saw

785
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,440
Speaker 9: that impact many many years ago in Houston. We had

786
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:08,920
Speaker 9: Vince will Fork and DJ Reader together. They you couldn't

787
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,760
Speaker 9: run at us. I mean that was like seven hundred

788
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 9: pounds and you could double a triple team and he

789
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 9: just didn't move them. That's Corleone. He's not gonna be

790
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 9: a great pass rush guy, but he is quick. I

791
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 9: think he can learn to get better in the pass rush.

792
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 2: He's so down powerful. I just the strength, it kind

793
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:29,600
Speaker 2: of whoa, It kind of takes your breath away.

794
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 10: But I do think there are a few.

795
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,879
Speaker 9: Guys like that. Dominique Orange from out of Iowa state,

796
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 9: he plays that way. Tim Keenan from Alabama kind of.

797
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:38,560
Speaker 2: The same thing.

798
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,280
Speaker 9: You're not gonna move those guys.

799
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 2: They are broad, strong leverage. I mean they're a little

800
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 2: bit shorter, and I always like shorter defensive linemen are

801
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 2: big and strungs. You absolutely are not gonna move them.

802
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,200
Speaker 9: I think Corleon and that defense helped the run game.

803
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,760
Speaker 9: First second down, get him off the field. Let Brian

804
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 9: Flores create whatever he's gonna create where their pass rush packages,

805
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 9: and you can take him off the field on third

806
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 9: down until he gets to a point where he can

807
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 9: stay in the field prove he's a.

808
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 2: Better pass rusher. And that's what DJ Reader did. DJ

809
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 2: was a run.

810
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:11,800
Speaker 10: Stuff for the first few years.

811
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:13,800
Speaker 9: Then his pass rush game got a little better, a

812
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,840
Speaker 9: little better, and as he got better doing that, he

813
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 9: got paid, moved on to the Bengals, he's on to

814
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 9: the Lions.

815
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 2: And he's made a lot of money because he improved

816
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 2: his pass rush abilities.

817
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,000
Speaker 9: I think Corleyon would have to do that, but he

818
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:25,919
Speaker 9: is a rock star.

819
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,319
Speaker 2: First and second down to start his career and then

820
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 2: build from there.

821
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 1: All right, Johnny, one minute, maybe a minute fifteen, You

822
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,839
Speaker 1: get it all. And I want you to channel your

823
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:40,880
Speaker 1: inner techs in here. Now. John runs football takeover dot Com,

824
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: but he's also the Houston Texan sideline analyst and has

825
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 1: been for many many years. Channel your inner techs in here, Johnny.

826
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 1: Minnesota won a lot of games up here and had

827
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:56,759
Speaker 1: some really good offense with ed Ingram starting at right guard. Now,

828
00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 1: when he was traded, nobody cared, you know, because of

829
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,439
Speaker 1: the visuals they would see of mistakes and stuff like that.

830
00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 1: You know, like one play from seventy during the game.

831
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,719
Speaker 1: Now he starts them all for your Texans, and two

832
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:11,800
Speaker 1: weeks ago he got a three year, thirty seven million

833
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:15,120
Speaker 1: dollar deal. What what do you think of ed Ingram?

834
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 1: Because clearly the Texans.

835
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 9: Like him, absolutely, absolutely like him. And I think for

836
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 9: players in this league sometimes just the change his scenery,

837
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 9: the change of you know, hearing you know, hearing a

838
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:33,959
Speaker 9: play call it's different, or just the amount of run

839
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 9: plays that a team has an offense, does you know,

840
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,840
Speaker 9: the gap scheme versus his own scheme. Now, all of

841
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,600
Speaker 9: that can be different for a guy and came here with.

842
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:46,759
Speaker 2: No expectations and he played like it. He played like

843
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,440
Speaker 2: you know, was kind of house money and he just played.

844
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 2: He didn't worry.

845
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,439
Speaker 9: About you know what the media was saying, he didn't

846
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 9: worry about. You know what people were saying about the

847
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,400
Speaker 9: Texans about him is this. He went out and played

848
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,360
Speaker 9: and then was like, wait a second, he kind of

849
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,319
Speaker 9: fits what we want to do. We want to move

850
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 9: people off the ball. We want to be more of

851
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,920
Speaker 9: a gap scheme. We want to hit people in the mouth.

852
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:12,239
Speaker 9: And that seemed to really kind of stoke the fire

853
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 9: and Edd. Look, he's got some pass protection things he's

854
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 9: got to work on. He's still got to be a

855
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:19,879
Speaker 9: little bit better that way. You know. Jeffrey Simmons kind

856
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:21,880
Speaker 9: of gave him the what for when we face the Titans,

857
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:27,759
Speaker 9: But what we had at guard was nothing compared to

858
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:31,360
Speaker 9: what Ed gave us. And he's back in Texas. He

859
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:33,720
Speaker 9: told us that many times on radio. He's so happy

860
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:37,319
Speaker 9: to be back in Texas. And when he signed, it

861
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,120
Speaker 9: was kind of surprise because we thought he had sort

862
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 9: of played his way out of the money and then

863
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 9: we signed. We're like, whoa, this.

864
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:46,799
Speaker 2: Is okay, Well, let's take it. But there's always that

865
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:48,399
Speaker 2: he did it for a year.

866
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:49,680
Speaker 9: Can he continue it?

867
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:50,920
Speaker 2: And he's got to.

868
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 9: I mean, for our offensive line that was not very good,

869
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 9: Ed was Ed was great, and our guy Arianta Ursery

870
00:47:57,719 --> 00:47:58,000
Speaker 9: was great.

871
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:00,399
Speaker 10: Everybody else was say okay, so.

872
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 9: Ed's got to be even better. And now the expectation

873
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:07,839
Speaker 9: because of the money are a lot higher for him.

874
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 9: But I think he's gonna rise to the occasion continue

875
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 9: to play well. I think Paul he just needed to

876
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:17,440
Speaker 9: change the scenery and probably a change in everything, and

877
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:20,279
Speaker 9: I think being back in Texas really helped him stoke

878
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,480
Speaker 9: this fire and he played really, really well for us.

879
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:26,880
Speaker 1: And we're glad that we have Johnny Harris NFL Drafts

880
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 1: Savant football takeover DUCA
