17
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: final mock draft practice. The perfect this thing. We have

18
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: had a lot, a lot, a lot of practice doing this.

19
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna use today NFL mock draft database. Um that

20
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 1: seems to kind of work the best that I found. Um,

21
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 1: they kind of used the uh amalgamation of everybody else's. Yeah,

22
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: I thought rankings here, So I'm gonna go ahead and

23
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 1: start quick. Their trades available, we do have trades us,

24
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: or we have to present them to them or um, yeah,

25
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 1: I think we have to present trades to them. So

26
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: picture rolling up the border, Jermaine Johnson and I and

27
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilton, Garrett Wilson, Jordan Davis, Trent McDuffie, George Carl Loftis,

28
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 1: Drake London, Crystal Lava, Trevor Penning, Devin Lloyd, Kenny Pickett

29
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: at nineteen and we are up. We're up. And how

30
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: about this is a decision, Matt, This is This is

31
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: gonna be a tough one. This has not happened to us.

32
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: As many times that we have done this, this has

33
00:01:55,720 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: not happened. Malik Willis is available, right, Guess who else is?

34
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 1: Jamison Williams. I knew that would get a I would

35
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: take Jamison Williams with two. Well, then let's just do it.

36
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: I think I think he's one of the guys that

37
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: I would take ahead of the quarterbacks. No, no brain,

38
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: no question at all, me too. I mean, I like

39
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: Willis at twenty. I would accept that right now, not

40
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: knowing the first nine T picks, but I want to

41
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: see what Trabinsky can do. You know, my opinion Trobinsky

42
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,920
Speaker 1: didn't change in the last three months. You know, we

43
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 1: wanted to sign him when the season ended. And if

44
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: I can give him Jamison Williams, Claypool, Johnson, Friar Muth

45
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: and Nausea Harris and a better old line, you have

46
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: an opportunity to have a really special for a year. Yeah.

47
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: I mean, to me, this is an easy one. I mean,

48
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 1: I understand it's hard because the value of a quarterback.

49
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: But this guy is this league is about explosive plays. Nothing.

50
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: Defensive coordinators fear more than somebody like Williams. All right,

51
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna make him the pick about it. If we

52
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: do this, do we consider at least consider trading up

53
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: into the into the top half, maybe in the second

54
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: round of late first round. Maybe. I don't know how

55
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 1: quickly this thing goes. I mean it's it's you have

56
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: a set on normal speed, so I can kind of

57
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: see what's happening here. Um, but we can. I'll hit

58
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: I'll hit the draft on Williams and we'll pause us

59
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: after a couple of pictures and see where this goes.

60
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody else is gonna jump up and

61
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: get and take Lake Willis there. No, I don't either.

62
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 1: Let's put one thing at you because I just want

63
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: to get this on record before we uh, before the

64
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: draft actually happens. So maybe I sound smart, but I

65
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: heard this today and it's just a Willis thing is

66
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: from what I understand. And again this is liar season

67
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: that the Lions love Willis and they would think that's

68
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: a perfect situation for him, but they wanted one of

69
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: the two defensive ends tie her. And but if you

70
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: look at the trade value chart, if you look at

71
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: thirty two, the Lions second pick, and thirty four their

72
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: third pick, they can trade those two things. That equals

73
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 1: the thirteenth pick in the draft. If I'm Detroit and

74
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: I can get Hutchinson and then trade up to thirteen

75
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: and get Willis, I'm done. I'm good. Like I think

76
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: that might be something we see. You might get your

77
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: second and third ranked players in this draft and important

78
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: positions that mock. I just want to throw it out. Well,

79
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: let's draft Williams and then we'll yes, yes, before we

80
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: get the Detroit's pick, we'll take a look at what

81
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 1: it would take for us to get back up there. See,

82
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: that's what I was thinking, is if we can get

83
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: Williams and Willis, I'm done in this draft. I'm cool,

84
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: I walk away, Mike drop, and we'll still get more players.

85
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: That's the that's the beauty of it. All Right, I'm

86
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: gonna hit I'm gonna get draft here, okay. And I mean, obviously,

87
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: if he goes the next five picks or whatever, right,

88
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: I'm hitting pauseitives pause, pause, pause, pause. I screwed it up.

89
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: I figured. I mean that I knew that was gonna

90
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: be hard to pull off. I I hit pause, and

91
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: it stopped, and I didn't realize it had stopped. Here's

92
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: what happened, Okay, after after we took Jamison Williams trailing

93
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: Burke's win at twenty one, Davante Wyatt, it's twenty two,

94
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: Tyler linderbaumb at twenty three, Zion Johnson at four, Andrew

95
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: Booth at, Kennyan Green at six, to the Titans, Kyer

96
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: Eelam at seven, to the Buccaneers Na Kobe Dean when

97
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: A to the Packers. See I'm on the phone now, Yeah,

98
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: that where I would be on the phone Dax Hill.

99
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 1: When it's nine, it's skipped thirty. For some reason, I

100
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: think I screwed the thing up. Five is on their

101
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 1: twice booth, it's Andrew Booth, Andrew Booth. And then there's

102
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: no second Chiefs pick, so skipped over thirty. Roger McCreary

103
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: went at thirty one to the Bengals and Malik Willison

104
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: went at thirty two to the Allions. We could have

105
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: gotten up there, I think, with one maybe to the Packers.

106
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: In that situation, I would consider selling next year's first. Yeah,

107
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: now I'm with you. I mean to me, if I

108
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: could get to thirty or in that neighborhood, next year's

109
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: first could be at play. And I if I leave

110
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,919
Speaker 1: this draft with Jamison Williams and Malik Willis, I'm really happy.

111
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: And you know, a fourth round pick here and there

112
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: or whatever, you mean, a couple of fare parts. I'm

113
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: looking at it like I just gave my quarterbacks quarter

114
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: you know, with with an S on the end, a

115
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: really good chance to succeed over the next couple of years.

116
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: And we're gonna learn a lot about these guys. Doesn't

117
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: mean they're gonna succeed, but I've done my job to

118
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: set them up really well and realistically, realistically, you got

119
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: maybe the best quarterback prospect in this draft and the

120
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: best wide receiver prospect in this draft. I think you do.

121
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: They both are number one in their respective positions for me,

122
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: and they're your two biggest needs. Yeah, and they're also

123
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: high value positions and one in quarterback. Um quick question,

124
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: but how this draft went? I think I know the answer.

125
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: But you said Burkes went one. Yeah, if Jamison Williams

126
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: were gone and it's between Burkes and Willis, you're taking Willis, right, Yes, Okay,

127
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: I mean it's just Williams because it's Williams, because it's Williams. Yeah, yeah,

128
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna continue. Travis Jones was the first

129
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: pick of round two. M I'm gonna hit we're back

130
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 1: in a Louis scene. Just went boy him off a

131
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: ebketty George Pickens at thirty eight, Tyler Smith, Matt Corral,

132
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: Bernard rand We see we might get Desmond Rittard just

133
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: went sky Moore. Logan Hall was about to ask you

134
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: would you consider trading up for your third quarterback? But

135
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: I think we'd we'd be ridder. But we're back on

136
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: the clock. Here and Sam how is still available. I'm interested. Okay, Well,

137
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: here's what else is available. You might like this too, Okay,

138
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker and Bruce Hall are both there. I don't

139
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: think they're going to go that route, but that would

140
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: be interesting, never would be, but I can't condone it.

141
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: Not in the second round. Yeah, Um, Trey McBride, Perry

142

Speaker 1: and Winfrey still available, Sam How As I mentioned, quay

143
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: Walker still available. I think he's the best player listed. Yeah,

144
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: Leo Chanal, Terik Woollin, Drake Jackson, Darry and Kennard, Nicholas,

Speaker 1: petite Frere, Calvin Austin. We're out of the receiver markets now.

Speaker 1: Pascal kings Leyan Baris. One guy stands out in this

148
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: list above everybody else. We've been doing this a long time.

149
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 1: I was about to say one guy has the highest

150
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: grade of all of them in one guy might have

151
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: a first round grade on him, and that's going to

152
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: three Kay Walker. Yeah, right, So do you just take them?

153
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: I think you do, because they haven't. You've heard everybody

154
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: else around the league announcing that they've picked up the

155
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 1: fifth year option on their first round draft picks. Steelers

156
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: have not the deadline for that is made three. They're

157
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: waiting until they see what happens in this draft before

158
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: they do that. Well, if you take kay Walker, you

159
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: don't need to pick up de Bushes. You still hope,

160
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,839
Speaker 1: I mean, still your day one starter. Any might have

161
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: a great season, you still may have no long term plans,

162
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: But if you draft a second round linebacker, you're not

163
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: picking up Bush option. Here's the beauty of Quay Walker.

164
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: If I had to, if if something happened to Alex

165
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: Highsmith or t J. Watt, Hm, I'm gonna play team.

166
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play kay Walker out there. I'm certainly gonna

167
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: give him. He's gonna get snaps it outside linebacker. That's

168
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: I was about saying in a Lawrence tim In a

169
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: Lawrence Timmins, like fashion backs on backers, I'm putting him

170
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: up against gentry and putting him up against nausey, you know,

171
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: coming off the edge as well as off the second level,

172
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 1: just to find a way to get him on the field.

173
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: And it seems like it's so archaic, but once in

174
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: a while there are three linebackers on the field. Still. Yeah, right,

175
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 1: you know what I mean like four three's still exist.

176
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: You know. Um, it's rare, but they still do exist.

177
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: He's too good to pass up and we already addressed receiver.

178
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: So here take it. You take him over how life

179
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: and adventure and it's waiting. Hi. This is Merril Hodge

191
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 1: But I mean, that's a conversation. But if we took

192
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 1: Willis here, if we took Willis at one, I can't

193
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: take Walker to go back to our conversation with Bob

194
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 1: because now you're getting very little help, right, I'm hoping

195
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: Pierre falls to three or something like that. You know,

196
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: and well, we always like our draft better when we

197
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: don't draft a quarterback. Yeah, I could make it. I

198
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 1: could certainly make the argument, though, to go ahead and

199
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:53,839
Speaker 1: take the quarterback there, because here's what's still available at linebacker. Well,

200
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: Christian Harris is there, Kway Walkers there, Chad Moments there,

201
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: Leah Shanal is there, Troy Anderson is there, Channing Tindall

202
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 1: is there, Brian Asamoa, Darian Beavers. I think you're changing

203
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: my mind. There's a lot of guys there. Walkers clearly

204
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: the guy with the best grade. Yes, I don't think

205
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: linebackers a need, though, I think I agree with you.

206
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: Avery's gonna play. I want to see what Jack and

207
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: Bush can do. I mean, I know I can get

208
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: a linebacker in the first round next year if I

209
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 1: have to, or a guy like they're not hard to find.

210
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 1: Here's the thing about Sam Howe as well, He's like

211
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: Mitch Robinsky and North Carolina guy. I guarantee you those

212
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: two guys have have a relationship already. I want them

213
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: to hate each other though, and battle each other to

214
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: the add Well, I think you can do that. We

215
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: can do that without you know, and and still be

216
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: you know, competitive, but still be friendly. I mean a year,

217
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: I think I think Traubinsky would have you know, Traubinsky

218
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: is gonna look if they draft. If I'm miss Robinsky

219
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: and the Steelers, you know, I just signed a contray

220
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 1: right here, and they draft Malik Willis, I'm gonna be

221
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: that kind of competitor with him. I'm not gonna necessarily

222
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: take him under my my wing and do anything like

223
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 1: that same thing with Mason Rudolph. I'm know, if I'm

224
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph, I'm like, I just waited four year, three

225
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: years for this starting opportunity, and now you're gonna do

226
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 1: this to me. I'm gonna be a little ticked off.

227
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: But if it's Sam how I mean, like, okay, I like,

228
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: I don't care about their feelings or motive. I'm not,

229
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: but I'm saying it helps, it helps the process of

230
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,439
Speaker 1: the room. And yeah, no, I hear you. I think

231
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: how's the pick? Okay, I I don't disagree. I think

232
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: that's a good value. I mean, if the Steers, it

233
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 1: doesn't even take me, it doesn't even take me out

234
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: of the quarterback market next year. That's as I say.

235
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: If they stink too high Heaven and win two games

236
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: next year and have a top three pick. I'm trading

237
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: how for a third rounder, and I still get something

238
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 1: back on my investment, you know what I mean. At

239
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: the very least Mason Rudolph's gone after this year, I

240
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 1: say he's the new Mason Rudolph. At worst, Yeah, he

241
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: could be your guy that you're you know, either a

242
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: bridge yeah right right, No, I think I think that's

243
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: good business. As much as I like Yeah, much as

244
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: I like Walker, but I don't think linebackers in need.

245
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: I don't see the I don't have a strong desire

246
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: to bring in a high profile linebacker the only reason. Yeah, yeah, yesterday, Yeah,

247
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: we had that conversation with Mike Persuity yesterday on the

248
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: DV show, and I I look at this, as you know,

249
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: Junard Avery could play inside or outside right all right,

250
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: right in line up and be a legit NFL player there.

251
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: You're not running somebody out there just to get snaps

252
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: out there and hold the spot. I think he's got

253
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: some actual juice to him, easy a r. No, he's

254
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: not a star, but he's not gonna kill you. Mhmm. Yeah.

255
00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: I mean if Walker in this case, if Walker, were

256
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: a corner, a wide receiver, tackle, even a safety. We're

257
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 1: running it up, but I don't think linebacker has an

258
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: easy path. And I want to see what these guys

259
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 1: can do. Yeah, I think how is to pick? Yeah,

260
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: I think it is too. I think I think, yeah, yeah,

261
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: that's the pick. Sam How you might catch lightning in

262
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: a bottle. By the way, you very well might. Yeah.

263
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: By the way, we're dona here. Ago one year ago,

264
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: people thought Sam How was a top ten pick guaranteed. Yeah. Yeah,

265
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: Well again that goes back to when we talk about

266
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: how much a draft can change from one year to

267
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 1: the next. Why you can't count that a horrible year? Yeah,

268
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: why you can't count on uh you know that that position. Well,

269
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: there's four guys that are gonna be the first round

270
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: raft picks. Well, two of those guys are gonna have

271
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 1: bad years or get hurt, and somebody else will step forward.

272
00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: That's just the way it works once in the transfer. Yeah, alright,

273
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: we're back up now at the top player available, Matt.

274
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: This is this is now tempting. Breece Hall is still available. Wow,

275
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 1: I mean that's tempting as hell. That's really tempting. He's

276
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: a mean he's a really good, good football player. Uh,

277
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: Trey McBride, Chap Muma for Daria Mathis, Greg Dulcis, Troy

278
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: Anderson still available, Channing Tindall is still available. So passing

279
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 1: on a linebacker in round two, there are still guys

280
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: there that we could get if we want to fill

281
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: that spot. Oh yeah, I'm happy if those started around linebackers.

282
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: You mentioned Tindall and Anderson, and those guys, those two

283
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: guys are, you know, look like long term starters and

284
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: maybe maybe they both need a year of seasoning. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

285
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: I mean that's the other part that Jack and Bush

286
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: workout is far from a sure bat. Yeah, no, I

287
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: probably have one or the other is good to need replaced, absolutely,

288
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: but there are I mean they both good hit and

289
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: do good you know. By the way, those guys will

290
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: be studs, special teamers for you, like right out of

291
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: the gate, especially a guy like Anderson. To me, oh

292
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 1: yeah right, Jeremy Ruckard. You may even return kicks, right, yeah.

293
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,360
Speaker 1: You might play him at fullback for something as well.

294
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 1: There's all kind of things you can do there. Brian

295
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: also Moa, Isaiah Likely, Khalil Shaker, James Cook, Gilanni Woods,

296
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:29,360
Speaker 1: Brian Cook still available. That's interesting, The Moan Clark, Kay

297
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: Dot and Kirby, Joseph Alante, Taylor, Rashida Walker, at Ingram,

298
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 1: Darian Beaver's, Cam Jargon's Damian Pierce, d'An angelo Malone. We're

299
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: in then Smith, Brian Robinson, Luke get Key. Any of

300
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:52,360
Speaker 1: those guys caught my eye. I mean, dress don't grow

301
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,719
Speaker 1: on trees, they don't. But if you're looking at just

302
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: the positional value, Breece Hall is my my god, he's

303
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: the highest gray of all of them, without a doubt.

304
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: He might have a first round grade on him, right,

305
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,879
Speaker 1: I think I would take Anderson Overhaul though, Yeah, would

306
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: you take him over for Darian Mathis. That's another name

307
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: as been throw out there that's pretty attractive. R Anderson

308
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 1: or Tyndall. I mean, there's there's there's there's some good

309
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: players there. I still can't condone Hall. I mean, I

310
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: know it's a tremendous Vale. Matthew Butler is still there. Um,

311
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 1: John Ridgeway is there. I mean, there's there's guys that

312
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: Neil Farrell is still there. Yeah, I'm hoping one of

313
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 1: these names you mentioned will be their next round. I mean, yeah,

314
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: I've had a tough time with this one. This is

315
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: this is this makes it tough. Um At the offensive

316
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,959
Speaker 1: tackle position, you get Rashid Walker, Max Mitchell, Brexton, Jones,

317
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: uh Darry Rosenthal, Spencer Burford, Cordelle Wolson. There's some guys there.

318
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,199
Speaker 1: Walker is my favorite out of those. We don't need

319
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 1: to take another wide receiver now because that's a but

320
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,639
Speaker 1: Khalil Shakier is still there. I know when you said that,

321
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 1: I was like most drafts we've done. If you told

322
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 1: me Shakier is still there in the third I'd be

323
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: very happy. But we've taken out of that direction either.

324
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: Let's let's take a look at your third round cornerbacks.

325
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 1: That's that's one that you've been kind of feel like

326
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: this should be a defensive pick, although I'm a tackle. Yeah,

327
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: Alonte Taylor from Tennessee's I am McCullum, Mary a Goodrich

328
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: at A. Clemson Jay len Omar Davis out of Alabama,

329
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: as is Josh Josh Job, Caleb Evans, Josh Williams, Tree,

330
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: Castro Fields and the Marie Mathis are both still available

331
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: to pick from here. Yeah, I think my new favorite

332
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 1: leader in the clubhouse those Armore Davis. Yeah, I don't

333
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: have a problem with that. I mean, I think he

334
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: has the mentality to help right away. He might be

335
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: a long term outside corner. I'd prefer to go defense

336
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: after going quarterback and wide receiver. I think there's also

337
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 1: a case, though, for the Penn State tackle Walker, just

338
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: because I don't he usually gets there in the third round.

339
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 1: And is it a bad idea to develop a tackle. No,

340
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: but I don't love the player. Yeah I'm not. Yeah,

341
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: I get that. I think I think you take our

342
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 1: more Davis. Yeah, yeah, I'm cool with that and thrilled

343
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,159
Speaker 1: with it. Really Yeah, there we go. I'll see. This

344
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: draft is setting up really nicely, really nice. To be

345
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: quite honest, I mean it's quick if this might be

346
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: my favorite draft and we've done thus far. I mean,

347
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 1: if we were taking Willison one, we would have gotten

348
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: some receiver I'm not sure who would be, and then

349
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 1: probably are more Davis. I don't know that to be

350
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: drastically worse. Boy, getting Jamis and Williams is a lack

351
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 1: of a lot better than getting some receiver. And to

352
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 1: be realistic about this, there's maybe a twenty chance if

353
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: that happens. Of course, of course, maybe but you know

354
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: right well, I'm not already We're not making the picks

355
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: ahead of us. All right, We're only nineteen guys are

356

359
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:15,719
Speaker 1: running backs. Pierre Stroward's my favorite, he are strong also available.

360
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: Ford's growing on me is one of my top guys.

361
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: Charlie Cohler at the tight end of Iowa State. Owah

362
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 1: State's actually got two tight ends that aren't bad, especially

363
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: for what the Steelers want out of them, Like they're

364
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: gonna block on tight ends, not off the board for me. No, Uh.

365
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: Michael Clemens, the ad dresser at a Texas A and M.

366
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 1: Tyreek Smith, d drusher out of Ohio State Castro fields

367
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: still available. Terrell Bernard's still available, Danny Gray to Marie Mathis,

Speaker 1: Taekwon Thornton ooh Melton, Marie barn O, Kyle Phillips, Bailey Zappy, Uh,

369
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,879

370
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: safety out of Baylor. Would you said that? Yeah? Spencer

371
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 1: Burford's still available. Um, there's a crazy thought though, Neil

372
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: Farrell still available? What if you like Tyson Anderson still available?

373
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: Farrell in Woods to me are pretty high. Who is

374
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 1: the last one you mentioned? Tyson Anderson? Interesting? Farrell and

375
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: Woods are both really interesting to me. I know we're

376
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 1: not going to do it, but I can't pass up

377
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: the opportunity throw it out there. What if they drafted

378
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 1: Gray and like hired the ray Holes to coach the

379
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 1: wide receivers? You know, you just everyone runs a four

380
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: two you know this blind people with speed. I mean

381
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: you're not gonna do that, but what a combination that

382
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: would be. It would be tremendous. Yeah, Ferrell Errol's Ferrell's

383
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 1: interesting there for sure. Um. You know again we're pushing

384
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 1: that running back down the board again right now. There's

385
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:04,959
Speaker 1: good that we probably won't get it after this group. Um,

386
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 1: I mean this is our last shot at a d

387
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: lineman too, probably probably so I would just which is

388
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 1: a good player? Yeah? You know I saw in Haskins

389
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 1: is there running back. I kind of like him too.

390
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 1: I bet they like him too. He runs hard. Yeah. Um,

391
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: but Farrell kind of fills a need. Farrell verse Woods,

392
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 1: I can find safeties. It's the planet theory. M hm.

393
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 1: Give me the huge guy, and no one's gonna complain

394
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 1: that he only plays six snaps a game, right, because

395
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,399
Speaker 1: you took him in the fourth round. That's different. Fourth round, right, Okay,

396
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: so he plays twenty snaps a game, all right, that's

397
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 1: fine for a fourth round pick. Oh you take that.

398
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 1: I mean it's at home run. Yeah, that's worth it.

399
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 1: All right, let's take him. Neil Farrell is to pick.

400
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,479
Speaker 1: People can't say we didn't and J. T. Woods went

401
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 1: two picks later. So there we go. Makes perfect sense.

402
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: I can't say we didn't address the defensive tackle asition.

403
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 1: So we've we've done. We've filled basically all of our

404
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: it's roll Edmunds signing. Resigning means that you don't have

405
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 1: to take a safety in this draft. You don't have

406
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 1: to do it right, right, right. You can take one

407
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: for you can take a safety in any draft because

408
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 1: they play. But you're not you're not penciled in. You're

409
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: not you're not pigeonholed into having to do it. That's

410
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: the want. It's not a need, yes, and you know,

411
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: defensive tackles kind of a need. It's more of a need. Yeah. Yeah,

412
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 1: so we've got we've hit wide receiver, we've hit quarterback,

413
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 1: we've hit cornerback, and we've hit defensive tackle. Mhm what else?

414
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: What else do we have to do in this draft?

415
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:52,719
Speaker 1: Have to nothing? I mean at this stage. So if

416
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: there's a developmental offensive tackle, if there's a running break

417
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 1: you like, right, there's a lot of different ways we

418
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,679
Speaker 1: can go, and best available is always gonna be on

419
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: the board from this point now. Absolutely, it's a lot.

420
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: If it's a linebacker, if it's a slot corner, I mean, okay,

421
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: you know, whatever it is, best available to me is attractive. Okay,

422
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 1: we're back up and at two oh eight, Well, the

423
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,120
Speaker 1: top rated player is Christopher Allen and he's not gonna

424
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 1: be on anybody's draft boards. The addresser out of Alabama

425
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: did he do something bad that I don't know about?

426
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,440
Speaker 1: I believe? So yeah, okay, well there you have that.

427
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: Um Davante Price, the running back at a Florida International. Oh,

428
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,199
Speaker 1: Bena as a we haven't talked much about him, the

429
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: offensive tackle at a TCU. Yeah, there's something there to

430
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 1: work with. Yeah, he's get some he gets some talent.

431
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: Jalen Watson, cornerback out of Washington State. Andrew Stuport, the

432
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: offensive tackle out of Michigan. I think he's a guard. Yeah,

433
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: I think he's a guard to Kevin Austin, no wide

434
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: receiver at the Notre Dame Charleston Rambo Sincere McCormick running

435
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: back at the U T s A. I know they

445
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: about a developmental defensive end. Total project, total project, but

Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind rolling the dice on the Minnesota kid

449

Speaker 1: because we may never hear from him again. Or wow,

450
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 1: what do you know he made? He's kind of louder Milk. Yes,

451
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: the body type that you just don't find those kind

452
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: of body types this late in the draft, and he's

453
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,120
Speaker 1: have to learn a new style of play. Right, That's

454
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 1: why you pay your coaches. Yeah, yeah, I think there's

455
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,120
Speaker 1: I think there's value there. Yeah, I think there's value there.

456
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 1: He probably won't be in it, won't be active for

457
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:19,360
Speaker 1: one game this year. That's fine, that's fine drafting him

458
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:23,359
Speaker 1: for three. They drafted louder Milk last year for this

459
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 1: season and he ended up having to play. That's just it.

460
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: It's easy to say that louder Milk is not gonna

461
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: play the snaps, but this guy's not gonna play snaps.

462
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 1: But you don't want them to. Right, we're back up again.

469
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,399
Speaker 1: I was gonna push for McCormick a little bit around ago.

470
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 1: But if there's a back you like better, I mean,

471
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna stayd on the table from it. No,

472

Speaker 1: I could. I could see takeing McCormick her What do

473
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 1: you think of Tyron Davis Price at a l s U? Oh?

474
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: I love him? Is he so very Terria Davis Price?

475
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 1: He's still available? Oh? I like him a lot. I

476
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 1: would consider him in like the fourth fifth round. Yeah,

477
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: I was surprised he's still he's still available. Yeah. I

478
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,000

479
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: All right. Let I mean, I'm not saying he's Franco

480
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: Harris or drum battist, but I think he's gonna be

481
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 1: a really good number two. And then I think he's

482
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 1: a better number two than what you have there. Now,

483
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: he's got more juice. I think he's like this year's

484
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 1: Khalil Herbert. Yeah, he's got more. He's got a little

485
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 1: more juice to him. M hm, alright, he has a

486
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: fantasy career ahead of him. Yes, uh, he he uh

487
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: he Terrian drinks and he knows things. That's what. Absolutely,

488
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: that's who we're after. We're back up here, Chase Lucas,

489
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: trade Turners. There's is there a position that you want

490
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: to look Let's look at the tight ends. Austin Allen. Yeah,

491
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: end that dozens stink would be great. Yeah, give you

492
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: competition for that number three spot. Austin Allen, Lucas Lucas, Crawl,

493
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 1: Garrett Prince, Connor, Heyward still available. Um'marnie Rogers out of Ohio,

494
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: Trey Berry at of Boston College. Chase Chase Allen out

495
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: of Iowa State is the other guy who's basically a

496
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 1: true blocker guy. Yeah, Jeremy Jeremiah Hall out of Oklahoma.

497
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: Andrew Ogletree at a Youngstown State. Now we're getting pretty

498
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: deep into that. Um, I like Crawl in this neighborhood

499
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: and most of us because I just know him better

500
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: because he went to Pit than these other tight ends.

501
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: I don't know that he's light years better than any

502
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: other names you mentioned. Yeah, but if this is our

503
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: last pick for our last mark, shouldn't it be? It

504
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 1: probably should be. I know what you're gonna say, Yeah, exactly,

505
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 1: you know who we are they asked with who Branga?

506
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: That's right, So Connor Hayward is the pick. That's good karma.

507
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: This was our best draft ever, ever, ever, ever is

508
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 1: a lot, but yeah, this year I kind of like

509
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: this draft. I mean, when when a guy like Jamison

510
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 1: Williams falls to you in the first round, that's he's

511
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: easily to pick over. Willis for me. I don't want

512
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 1: to say that's cheating because I don't think it's does.

513
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 1: But he does have an a C L injury, right

514
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 1: if what else we got going? We have the double

515
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: roommate effect because we have a roommates and the LSU roommates. Yes,

516
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: we do phenomenal Yeah, yeah, I mean that works out well.

517
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: And you know the Haywards can run together. Oh yeah,

518
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: all kinds of familiarities. They came room with his little brother.

519
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: Why not, m Yeah, Davis is going to hang out

520
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: with some Crimson Tide defensive backs. You know, I got

521
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: all kinds you could. You could make holland Trabisky room

522
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: together for that. But they're gonna be buds too. I

523
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 1: mean everyone's singing kumbay. So we ended up with Jamison

524
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: Williams at Sam how at fifty two, Galen Lamar Davis

525
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: at four, Neil Farrell, the defensive tackle out of l

526
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 1: s U, big nose tackle at one, eight, azz Otamo

527
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 1: at two oh eight, UH massive edge guy out of

528
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: UH Minnesota, Tyrian Davis Price at five and round seven,

529
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 1: and then Connor Hayward at one. I'll take it. I'll

530
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: trade you the whole draft class for those names right

531
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 1: right now? Yeah, I think so. I think I think

532
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 1: right now, if you said you could have if this

533
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: is what the Steelers pick, would you be be with that,

534
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 1: absolutely trade every pick they own for those players. I'll

535
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: say yes, and really would I do that? Yeah? Most

536
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 1: I want to see how the board falls falls more

537
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: often than not. Yeah, I think that's a home run.

538
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: I think it's a home run. I think they should

539
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 1: mo went out with a bang. I think they should

540
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 1: put us in the draft room and just let us

541
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 1: do this. Right's that easy, It's piece of cake. We

542
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: did wait on the trades. We didn't have to do anything.

543
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 1: Don't sweat to Kevin how will be there in the

544
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 1: second and Normore Davis will be there in the third.

545
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: And by the way, you're gonna get Jamison Williams in

546
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 1: the first, like a right, it's coming, it's coming, don't

547
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 1: worry about no reason to move up. Honestly, I think

548
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: I think Kevin Colbert would would love this to go

549
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: out with this kind of bang. I mean, if how

550
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put this quote busts, he's still gonna be Rudolf.

551
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 1: I mean, he's gonna be in the league for the

552
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 1: next eight years. I mean he's if that's worst case

553
00:32:55,480 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: scenario is he's our next backup or Trip Whisky's lifetime

554
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: back up. That doesn't mean it was a bad pick.

555
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: You're hoping for more and you might. You know, yeah,

556
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: you draft that, you draft a quarterback position. I think

557
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 1: so many people misunderstand this. You draft for for long term,

558
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: not the short term. At quarterback, where some other there

559
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: are some other positions in the draft. You may take, well,

560
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: this guy is gonna be a player for us for

561
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: the next two or three years, and then maybe we're

562
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: not going to resign him a quarterback position. You're looking

563
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 1: more at the long term effect. You know, we were

564
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 1: thinking of his career. Yeah, we think eight years from

565
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:36,719
Speaker 1: out the very least, he's gonna be our number two

566
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 1: guy for the next quarter a half, a decade. All right,

567
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: and you mentioned Rudolph probably won't be back next year,

568
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,240
Speaker 1: but Rudolph is going to be in this league for

569
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: eight to ten years. Yeah, he could have a nice

570
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 1: long career. Maybe he maybe you know, he started ten

571
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: games in his career, maybe he doesn't start ten more

572
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 1: games the rest of his career. Right now, I would

573
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: I like Rudolph more than that listeners do, and I

574
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: know we both do, and I don't love him. But

575
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: if I were to draft Howe in round two here

576
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 1: and someone says, hey, we'll give you a fourth for Rudolph, Okay,

577
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: I might do that. Yeah, that doesn't ye know, that's

578
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 1: certainly a possibility as well. But I think he got

579
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:20,239
Speaker 1: in Williams, RMR. Davis, and Neil Ferrell. You've got three

580
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 1: starters down the road, maybe in the next two years

581
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 1: out of this draft. Yeah, I mean, I don't think

582
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: you have any Week one starters, though, if you want

583
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: to play Devil's advocate because because of William's injury, right,

584
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: and if you've got you've got a guy in Odo

585
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: Mueo who you know, could end up being a rotational

586
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: guy for you down the road, maybe he becomes a starter.

587
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 1: Nobody thought Brett Kissel was going to be a starter

588
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 1: when they drafted him in the seventh round. Um, you know,

589
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 1: that's just the way it goes. Aaron Smith was a

590
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 1: fourth round draft pick. I mean that's where they used

591
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 1: to get these guys developmental defensive ends. Again, this is

592
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: my favorite draft that I can remember we've done this year.

593
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 1: But zero of them might be active in Week one.

594
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: I think there's a chance Davis, Price and Hayward actually

595
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: maybe might be your last two picks out. Decide that

596
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: the end guys have a better chance maybe than your

597
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: first two because there'll be special teams players. Yeah, and

598
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 1: then Mr Davis rm R. Davis is probably active on
