1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: But welcome in everybody to Wednesday edition of Texans All

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: Access from Monday Texans Radio Studio. I am your host

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: this evening football anils and silent reporter John Harris and

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: the voice of the Texans, Mark Vanomer joins me. Mark,

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: are you old up? Johnny? I am so pumped because

6
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: the hotstave really got fired up today. I mean, is

7
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 1: this the first big one of the offseason by Flacco story?

8
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: I think it is. And we're gonna get to that

9
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 1: in just a second. Because quarterback roulette is about to

10
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: happen in the NFL. We're gonna talk about what this

11
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: how this impacts the domino effect of the NFL with

12
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks, and we'll get to that. We've also got

13
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 1: our first Wednesday night draft. It's Draft Wednesday's Draft Wednesday

14
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 1: and the draft, And let you think about this a

15
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: little bit. You can't guarantee a win against the team,

16
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: but I'm allowing you to take one defensive player off

17
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: of a Texans twenty nineteen opponent that would come the

18
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: closest to assuring you a win. Okay, and you get

19
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: the draft in the order in which you would take

20
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: those players off those teams. So we got quarterback Roulette,

21
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: and we have survivor, yeah, or of sorts. We get

22
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: to vote defensive players off the island of the opponent.

23
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: Just one player off that team. One defensive player off

24
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: that Team's gonna be too easy offense. It's just sent

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: Brady to send send Brady to hang out with Wilson,

26
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: and Tom has send all my quarterbacks away. The way

27
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: this schedule is shaping up, yeah, exactly. So the question

28
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: would be, would you take Mahomes first or Brady first? Oh,

29
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: if you had to, if you had to do the

30
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 1: offensive guys, No, you know what, Brady, you know what?

31
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: All right, I know we're not doing that tonight, but

32
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: I might just go ahead and take Mahomes out of

33
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: the equation because you're going up there to Kansas City,

34
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: tough place to play anyway, You got Mahomes, so you

35
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: take Mahomes out of it. Look not that Brady is

36
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: gonna be easy to deal with here at NRG Stadium,

37
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: but I'd rather. I think I'd rather take my chances

38
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: with Brady at home than Mahomes on the road at

39
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: this point in their careers. Interesting, Yeah, I was watching

40
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and Cardinals kind of taking a step back

41
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: because I got the Harris one hundred finally done. So

42
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: now I'm taking a step back. I'm looking at the

43
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: teams themselves like a drafting. So I started with Arizona.

44
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,359
Speaker 1: Holy cow, Arizona was bad last year. I mean, oh

45
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: it was bad, right, it was bad. I mean I

46
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: think Arizona finished but two and fourteen or three and thirteen.

47
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: I think it was three and thirty three, and the

48
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: Texas were four and twelve the year the year prior.

49
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: I can't tell you that the difference between four and

50
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: twelve and three and thirteen teams. I mean it was

51
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: I'm watching and you could see like Patrick Peterson like

52
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: sometimes throw up his hands like what y'all doing? It

53
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: was amazing to watch. But I was watching the Chiefs

54
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: in that and it was one of the games in

55
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: which the Chiefs offense didn't have a great day against

56
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. But just some of the things that Patrick

57
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: Mahomes does, I'm sitting there watching, like, wait a second,

58
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 1: he just backed shouldered a Tampa two running linebacker Tyree

59
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: Hill for a touchdown? Like what did he just do?

60
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: Who called him trick shot artist? Oh? He is? He is?

61
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 1: Who's the Tanny yeah, Tanny, Alex Tanney, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,

62
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: but Mahomes can do it in an NFL game. It's

63
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: pretty incredible, all right, Mark. We so we got all

64
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: that on the show. But today we heard earlier around

65
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: lunchtime that there is news a foot in the NFL

66
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: and it doesn't impack the Texans because the Texas will

67
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: play the Denver Broncos and as they played the AFC West,

68
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,839
Speaker 1: now Denver will have to come here. But it may

69
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: not be case Keenum. It may ultimately be Joe Flacco.

70
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: The news out of both Baltimore and Denver is that

71
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: Denver is giving up a fourth round pick, presumably the

72
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: fourth round pick that they received for de Marius Thomas,

73
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: that they will go out and get Joe Flacco. It

74
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: involves the Texans in other words, in some way it

75
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: does so essentially, what Denver has done today is trade

76
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: to Marius Thomas for Joe Flacco. Your gut reaction when

77
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: you saw that was what I still feel sad. Yeah,

78
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: that was it because I feel sad over the way

79
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: it all went down with Damarius Thomas. I really we

80
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: talked about this yesterday. I been I really wanted to

81
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: see what was going to happen in the postseason. Of course,

82
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: with Damarius Thomas, that would have really helped. Obviously, you

83
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: weren't able to see him in the postseason, and hey,

84
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: even late in the Philadelphia game, right, that might have

85
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: been a big aid to this offense. And the fact

86
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: that he's not around here, you know, I just I

87
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 1: wanted to see this play out. I didn't think it

88
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: was gonna be a huge factor next year, but I

89
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: said this yesterday, Johnny, this team needs another wide receiver,

90
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,239
Speaker 1: not just for insurance, but just they got to bolster

91
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: the troops here. Maybe Vincent Smith can't emerge to be

92
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: that guy. Hey, look, if you can guarantee me perfect

93
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: health with Fuller, QT and Hopkins, great, I'm all set.

94
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: But they're no guarantees in this world, as we've painfully

95
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 1: seen with this franchise over the years. So I want

96
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: to see somebody, and I thought maybe it could be

97
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: Thomas anyway, So that's my gut reaction. It comes. It

98
00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 1: comes back to me big surprise at my feelings about

99
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans situation. But Flacco, this is a big story,

100
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: you know, and good for the Broncos being able to

101
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: swing this deal they needed to do something at that position.

102
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: I'm not so sure this is the answer to all

103
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: their problems though. Well. One of the things that I

104
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 1: I found out just when you open your ears and

105
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: listen at the Senior Bowl. Yeah, and it doesn't. It

106
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: didn't surprise me too much. But John Elway has been

107
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: studying college quarterbacks all all this year. I mean he

108
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: is then. I think that's part of it. I mean

109
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: that that could absolutely be part of it. That he

110
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: looked at these guys and said, I don't think he's

111
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: ruling them out, but I think what he's doing is

112
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: he's ruling them out to be effective in twenty nineteen

113
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: in his mind. I don't think it precludes them from

114
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: taking a quarterback, but I think what it does is

115
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: it gives them, at least now the twenty twenty class

116
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: quarterbacks is gonna be pretty good. With two Atago Violoa,

117
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 1: Jake from Justin Herbert from Oregon. I think they're gonna

118
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: be much better prospects. All those guys I would put

119
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: in front of any buddy going this year. But I

120
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: think at number ten, A lot has been made about

121
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: Drew Locke. They saw Drew lock of the Senior Bowl

122
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: and That's where I started hearing it was that Elway

123
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: had been studying the college quarterbacks all you know. Throughout

124
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: I heard from some scouts that were like, yeah, I

125
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 1: was at this game and Elway was there, and the

126
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 1: only player can go see is gonna be a young

127
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: quarterback and that it doesn't preclude them from doing it.

128
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: I'm intrigued by this move for a couple of reasons.

129
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: Number One, we sat here on draft night, we said,

130
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson will be the starter, no question in twenty nineteen. Yeah,

131
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: we looked at the contract of Joe Flacco. We talked

132
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 1: about it, you mean and Andre. We said, Lamar Jackson,

133
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 1: if not sooner, is gonna be the starter in twenty

134
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: nineteen at the latest. And of course he becomes a

135
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: starter halfway through the year. The other aspect is the

136
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: Broncos just paid Case Keenom two years thirty seven million

137
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 1: dollars last year, and now they're taking on Joe Flacco's contract,

138
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: which is no guaranteed money. Buddies, I think it's eighteen

139
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: and a half or nineteen million dollars this year. That's

140
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: a lot of money on your cap. Were that particular

141
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,799
Speaker 1: position when you don't know exactly whether whether you're gonna

142
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 1: there's just a lot Onno. Well, so Keendom's being shocked reportedly,

143
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: I would I would think so. And it'll be interesting

144
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: to see where he ends up. And this goes to

145
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: your roulette point because you've nailed this kind of thing before,

146
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 1: and I'm eager to hear what you think. I don't

147
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: know if you're ready to come out with it. Is

148
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: it Rouletto is in musical chairs or Domino effect? However? Yeah,

149
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: it's more musical chairs, is what it is. But I

150
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: found it interesting because Case was such a integral part

151
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: of it last year. He was a big part. Once

152
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: the Cousins domino fell. Yeah, then that put Case in

153
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: motion and that scent Case to Denver and it kind

154
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: of moved some things around. How about Case gets blasted

155
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: out of two places where well, Minnesota he played pretty well. Yeah,

156
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: and maybe they're thinking, you know, well, but you might

157
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: have done just fine with Keenom here as opposed to Cousins.

158
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: And I know Cousins in certain metrics looks pretty good.

159
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: But you get my drift, and now Flacco comes in

160
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: replaces Case. You could you're I think you're right about

161
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: your Eilway point because they could have easily drafted a

162
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: young guy. Said, Case, you're gonna start until this guy's

163
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: rid of to take over. Let's be honest, it's gonna

164
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: happen at some point. Let's let it play out like

165
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: Jared Goff with the La Rams when Case was there. Boy,

166
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: Case is becoming Steve de Burg. That's a great point.

167
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: I thought about that earlier today. That's a great point.

168
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: He is. And if you don't remember Steve de Burg,

169
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: the Burg was the quarterback in San Francisco before Joe

170
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: Montana right then, he was the quarterback in Denver, ye

171
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 1: before Elway, Tampa before Steve Young or Vinny or Vinny

172
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: maybe in Vinny is Vinny, I think, Oh really, I

173
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: can't remember, but it was like two or three different

174
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: places where he was the guy. Steve Young started in

175
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: Tampa and yeah he did, he did. But yeah, so

176
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: you were exactly right with Case. Here's one place that

177
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: I would find very interesting, just given the backgrounds of

178
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: where Case played his college ball and Cliff Kingsbury being

179
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 1: the coach in Arizona. That's a that's a good one

180
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 1: right there. Now Case would be going there more than

181
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 1: like to be the backup, yeah, behind Josh Rosen. But

182
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: that's a good insurance policy for them, no question. And

183
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: at this point in his career, I don't think anybody's

184
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: bringing in case to be the starter. He's gonna be

185
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: a high price backup. Oh but that contract? All right?

186
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: How about this? And I meant to bring this up

187
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 1: when you brought this up with Elway and the contract

188
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: he gave Keenum, which is not a cousins contract, but

189
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: it's a pretty decent contract. What would happen like how

190
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: would history be revised with the Broncos. Had the Texans

191
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 1: sort of bowed out of the Oswilder race at some

192
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 1: point prior to twenty sixteen and Denver paid him sixteen

193
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: million a year and a huge deal at the time,

194
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: would they have been trying to get out of it

195
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: after a year one? Would it have worked out? I

196
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: don't know, because Kubiak was still the coach in Denver

197
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 1: when they missed on the Oswylder signing, and that turned

198
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: out to be a good miss for them. They ended

199
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 1: up back with him anyway in the twenty seventeen season.

200
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: But it's really fun stuff to track and think about

201
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 1: the what ifs and the hypotheticals. It's endless. Yeah, there's

202
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,719
Speaker 1: no question. Brandon Highie friend of ours, used to be

203
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: a sports radio six ten his internship there. He's now

204
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: back in Kansas City, and he tweeted this. He said,

205
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: three of the five worst quarterbacks in the league and

206
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: passer rating over the last five years have started for

207
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: the Broncos. Okay, you ready for his minimum one thousand

208
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: pass attempts. Okay, just just listen to this. Number one

209
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: brock Oswader, number two, Blake Portals, number three, Joe Flacco,

210
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 1: number four, Brian Hoyer, and number five Case. Keeno. Wait,

211
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: did he say I have started for the Broncos. Yeah,

212
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: and what's what stood out to you, Blake Bortles? Well, no,

213
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 1: what also starts out to you? Osweiler Hoyer? Yeah, Keeno,

214
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 1: that's also for the Texans too. Bought the Texans in

215
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: those years, one division championships with Oswalder, one division championship

216
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: with a Hoyer, and won two games with the Case

217
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: at the end of the twenty fourteen Why is he

218
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: saying Portles with the Broncos. No, he's saying three of

219
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: these guys, three of the five, three of the five.

220
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: So Bortles is the only one of that mix that

221
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: hasn't played for the Broncos and or the Texans. And

222
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 1: the Texans right because Hoyer has played for the Texans

223
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: and now Horyer has a ring with the New England Patriots.

224
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: Good for him. So yeah, there you go. And what's

225
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: a key point as we keep pardon that as we

226
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 1: talked about that last week, but it starts with Flacco.

227
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: So Flacco now is in Denver. We were waiting to

228
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: see where he was gonna go. He ends up, presumably

229
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: with a starting gig in Denver, moves out there. They

230
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: gave up a fourth rounder as they said earlier. Essentially

231
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 1: what the Broncos did was give up the Marius Thomas

232
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: and they gave up basically, they gave up da Marius

233
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: Thomas for a player to be named later. That player

234
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 1: ends up being Joe Flacco. So they bring Flacco in.

235
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: So now Keenam, I would imagine it's not staying in Denver,

236
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: potentially Arizona to be a backup there, here's one for you,

237
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 1: give me one. People have asked whether case Keenan would

238
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: come back here to be the backup to Deshaun Watson

239
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 1: and Houston. Would you do it? Do you think it happened?

240
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: Would I do it? Here? I think that's a really

241
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: interesting point. What would you do? It's a big deal though, right, Yeah,

242
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: you got to figure out what you're going You have

243
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 1: the cap space. Are you happy with your backup? Are

244
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: you really going anywhere with your backup? No matter who

245
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 1: it is? You know what I'm saying, So what is

246
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 1: the real advantage there? I'd consider it though, But you

247
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: know what, we don't know how good Brandandon Weeden really is.

248
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 1: I mean, he looked pretty good in short work here

249
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: in the twenty fifteenth season. That's starting to sound like

250
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: a long time ago too, it is, so I'm not

251
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 1: sure how they feel about it. But he looked pretty

252
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 1: good in the preseason last year. Yeah, thinking about it.

253
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: The irony, Brandon Weedon got two He got two games

254
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: essentially in twenty fifteen. He meets the Colts, he meets

255
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: the Titans, case Keenan got two games. At the end

256
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: of twenty fourteen, he meets the Ravens, he meets the Jags,

257
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 1: and Keenan gets more kids out of the out of

258
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: the job, out of that performance. Brandon Weedon, you know,

259
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: unable to well, he caught on with Tennessee, but unable

260
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: to get the kind of gigs the Keenom's gotten sense

261
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: or the opportunity really because Keenom. It's not like he

262
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: lucked into what happened in Minnesota. But it's through attrition

263
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 1: that he got his chance, and then he made him

264
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: most the most of that chance. I would have. I'm

265
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: curious to see what the Broccos, if the Broccos, if

266
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: Elway is able to trade case Keenum and his contract,

267
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: holy cow. I mean, I think it's very true. If

268
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: you could trade ost Wilder, you could trade Keenum, you

269
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: would think, right, here's the other thing. Four for Flacco? Yeah,

270
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: four for Flacco? Is that a little light a little bit?

271
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 1: But if you're if you're Baltimore, if you're Baltimore, what

272
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 1: you're getting in return, you you're getting something you're well,

273
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: you're getting that cap relief. Now you've got some dead money,

274
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: but you're getting cap relief, so you're kind of getting

275
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: a little bit of that. Plus you move Joe on

276
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 1: out of the building. Yeah, it's now Lamar's team. You

277
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: don't have to have that hanging over your head. You're

278
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: not gonna be stuck with that big time cap hit

279
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 1: and three still to back up. I would imagine he's

280
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,719
Speaker 1: got to be I want him. If I would think

281
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: he's got I would think he's got to be the

282
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: guy Texans will be there this year in our Harbor

283
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,679
Speaker 1: matchup between the Ravens and Houston, and he might end

284
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: up on the that Baltimore Ravens might end up on

285
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 1: the Wednesday Night Draft. We'll talk about that in a

286
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 1: little bit, But coming up next, Drew and I are

287
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:12,480

Speaker 1: talk draft a lot. I see it in my Twitter timeline,

295
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: I see it in emails. I get I see it

296
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: when I go to the grocery store and people are

297
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: asking me because yes, that does happen at Mike Roger.

00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: tell me about and then he gives me a name today.

302
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: That name is Andre Dillard, an offensive lineman from Washington

303
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 1: State who played from my old pal Mike Leech. You

304
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 1: know Mike Leech. Just he's pumped out some some great

305
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 1: receivers over the year years, West Welker, Michael Crabtree, Danny Mendola.

306
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: But you know what, he's had some pretty good offensive

307
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: lineman in that system. He loves the offensive line play.

308
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: He emphasizes the offensive line play. Over the years, he's

309
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 1: been kind of known for the big splits gaining the

310
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: tackle is way out wide, way from the guard, who's

311
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: way out wide from the center, and it's they're they're

312
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: all kind of islands and they have to they have

313
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: to be a little bit get to block a little differently,

314
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: so on and so on. But tell me about Andre Dillard. Well,

315
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: he was a guy that arrived at Washington stayed about

316
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: two forty five to fifty and I first noticed him

317
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen. He was a redshirt sophomore and he

318
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: was playing left tackle and I actually was studying a

319
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: different player at Wazoo. I was studying the guard that

320
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: a guard by. They have a Cody Cody O'Connell, the

321
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: kind of mount O'Connell. And he's massive. I mean, he's

322
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty five, three hundred and sixty pounds,

323
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: and everybody kept putting them on their All Pack twelve

324
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: lists and you know, preseason America lists, and I was like, Okay, well,

325
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: I gotta check this guy out. So I was watching

326
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: him and I kept firing out to the left tackle.

327
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, I left tackle can move. Well, he's quick.

328
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 1: Just mirroring guys. You know, you think about what a

329
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: left tackle does, and you think just the ability to

330
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: mirror to stay with a pass rusher. Pass rushers are

331
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: throwing hands and spinning and bobbing and weaving and swiping

332
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: and ripping and all that kind of stuff, and left

333
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: tackles gotta be able to athletically stay with all of that.

334
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's pretty much the first thing you've

335
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: got to be able to do. You gotta be able

336
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: to have those feet. And I'm watching number sixty, I'm thinking, boy,

337
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: he can move. So I'm like, who is this? So

338
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: look him up and it's Richard's sophomore and he's two

339
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five pounds. I thought, okay, you can't

340
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: play at that, but you know he's a sophomore, so yo,

341
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: we'll see. So he became at that point kind of

342
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 1: one of those ups keeping in my pocket for a

343
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 1: kind of a rainy day, like I like this guy

344
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: Andre Dillard, and so I kept watching him, kept watching him,

345
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 1: and then finally he's a senior. I was like, he's

346
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 1: not getting any attention from any draft analysts. No Mayak,

347
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,360
Speaker 1: no nobody. Nobody's talking about him in this in this

348
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: new world we live in where draft analysis is happening

349
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 1: all the time. And I just remember thinking, man, did

350
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: I miss the boat on this? Or is he my

351
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 1: Mitchell Schwartz because I remember the same thing happened with

352
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 1: Mitchell Schwartz was a Cow and I was watching Mitchell

353
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: Schwartz against Miami in a in a bowl game. It

354
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: was the one they play in the Giant Stadium. I

355
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 1: don't know if they still play it there. They don't

356
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: play it there. They played at the New Ford Owner Stadium,

357
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: but they played at bowl games Miami against Cow, and

358
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: I should remember watching Mitchell Schwartz going, this guy's a player,

359
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: and he was young. He was like a red shirt

360
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: freshman I think or sophomore was young. Then Mitchell Schwartz

361
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 1: turned into a really really good player, but Dealer was

362
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 1: getting no attention. I didn't understand it. I really didn't

363
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 1: getting you Watchington States getting and playing really well. I'm

364
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: watching him thinking he's playing well, why is nobody talking

365
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: about this guy? Like? I don't get it? And then

366
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, about two or three weeks before

367
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl, Daniel Jeremiah put out some tweet or

368
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 1: some article or something saying Outreiller might be the best

369
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: left tackle in football, and I was like, damn it,

370
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: you know what Jeremiah. Daniel Jeremiah. Yeah, And I love DJ.

371
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 1: And as soon as DJ said that, I felt good

372
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 1: because I was like, okay, yeah, then I didn't miss

373
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 1: the boat on this guy. So I got a chance

374
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 1: to talk to him at the Senior Bowl and got

375
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 1: a chance to watch him at the Senior Bowl. And

376
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,679
Speaker 1: the and the thing is about coming from that offense.

377
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 1: I think there are some advantages that people don't understand

378
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: because you talk about they have those wide splits and

379
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,199
Speaker 1: you think, oh, well, that's not going to develop you

380
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 1: as this kind of player, that kind of player. One

381
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: of the players that came out of Texas Tech was

382
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 1: Louis Vasquez and Louie was one of the better guards

383
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 1: in the NFL, and he could do it all. And

384
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 1: I think what Mike Leach does and did with his

385
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: offensive line, because they develop them as athletes. Yeah, they

386
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: develop them as you know, they can move, and they

387
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 1: put them out there on an island, especially left tackle

388
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: aunor killers. To be you kind of have to be

389
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 1: more self sufficient, yes, and you have to kind of

390
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 1: hone some skill sets that you might not normally when

391
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: you're in that system. Absolutely, because you are you are

392
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: one on one. I mean it is you're not getting

393
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 1: much help from your your guard, or getting much help

394
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: from a tight end, or getting much help from a

395
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 1: back chipping. And Andre Diller lived on an island one

396
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 1: on one throughout his entire career, seem at the Senior

397
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 1: Bowl and one of the things he talked about was,

398
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: you know, we didn't we didn't run. We didn't run

399
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: the ball a lot. We didn't run it the way

400
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 1: the NFL teams are gonna run it. And I think

401
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: some teams are gonna try and poke holes in that

402
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: he's got. He's got the ability to do it. And

403
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 1: one thing that I noticed about him at the Senior

404
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: Bowl drew the fact that he got better run blocking

405
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: every day, Like every single day, you could see some

406
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: improvement in his run blocking because I got a chance

407
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,679
Speaker 1: to watch day two and day three on my computer.

408
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: I got a chance to watch those because I was

409
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 1: there for day one and then day two got rained out,

410
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 1: but they they filmed it and sent it to everybody,

411
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: and so that was nice, and so we got a

412
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 1: chance to watch that he got better. He got better

413
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,080
Speaker 1: in day one in the practice like run blocking. I

414
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: think that's gonna help him. But you talk about dancing

415
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: with guys on in the edge. He's up to three

416
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,919
Speaker 1: hundred ten pounds now from the two seventy five he

417
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 1: was a few years ago. It's right where he said

418
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: he wanted to be. And that's kind of light for

419
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,640
Speaker 1: a Mike Leach offensive lineman. Yeah, which is it's a typical,

420
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: but it's it's lending into what I'm gonna tell you

421
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 1: about it. Why And he said he wanted to be

422
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 1: at three ten h Now, I don't know if he

423
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: want to stay there at three ten. One of the

424
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: fascinating things to me over the years while Dwayne Brown

425
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 1: was here. I was always this sounds strange, but Dwayne

426
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 1: would would change his weight a lot, like he would

427
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 1: want him like, I'm really gonna cut and he There's

428
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 1: one year I think he was down like three or five,

429
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: three ten, and then there's one year when he really

430
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 1: wanted to bulk up. He got up the three twenty five,

431
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: three thirty. I mean he really And a lot of

432
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: times it depended on the time of the year. Yeah, true,

433
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 1: and he went year two year like you're talking. Yeah. Absolutely.

434
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 1: And Dwayne is the kind of guy I look at

435
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: Andre Dillard and think same sort of build because Dillard

436
00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: was not a tight end when he got to watch

437
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 1: this day. He was just the small tackle. Dwayne was

438
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: a tight end. Yeah, that they moved to tackle, and

439
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 1: so I see a lot of similarities in the two.

440
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,640
Speaker 1: And obviously Dwayne became one of the best left tackles

441
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: in the business learning through his days at Virginia Tech. Now,

442
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 1: I don't think he was coached as well at Virginia

443
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: Tech as Andrea has been at Washington State. So I

444
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: do think that Dillard's probably a little bit more finished product,

445
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: but I think Dwayne was probably overall better athlete. Yeah,

446
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,919
Speaker 1: but I know what I see in Andre Dillard as

447
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 1: a left tackle and think that guy can play in

448
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: the league and play there for a long time. I'd

449
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 1: be really excited to text and able to add him

450
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 1: at twenty three. Mike Leach was once asked about blocking

451
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: by his wide receivers and what you said early on

452
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: and that talk about Dillard reminded me of this answer

453
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 1: he gave. But somebody was was like, well, what's important

454
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: as far as blocking for your wide receivers. He's like,

455
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:57,439
Speaker 1: I don't really care about pancake blocks or crackbacks or anything. Violent,

456
00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 1: just really just wants you to get in the way.

457
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: And that's what you were talking about, is I mean,

458
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 1: maybe Andre Dillard can do pancakes and can man handle

459
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 1: guys and look like that's fun. But it sounds like,

460
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: based on what you've observed, it sounds like he kind

461
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 1: of falls into that that that theory of just getting

462
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: the way just just make it tough to get to

463
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 1: the guy this defender wants to get to and kind

464
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: of do it in any way possible, And there was

465
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: it's interesting you say that be shield almost Yeah, my

466
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,919
Speaker 1: buddy Lance. He was talking to a scout about a

467
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 1: particular player and the scout said, look, man, I don't

468
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 1: know really how to define it. He just gets guys blocked.

469
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 1: That's that's really, That's really all it's about. It's getting

470
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 1: blocked if if it's his own play, and you gotta

471
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: run the guy by on by getting blocked, if it's

472
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 1: a power play, and you got to stand that guy

473
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: up and you know, move them a little bit. Okay.

474
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 1: That was the one thing I did see in him.

475
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: As the day wore on and as the week wore on,

476
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: there was a little bit more of that rum block

477
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: and pop. You know, you're thinking about guys that pass

478
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 1: protect all the time. They're always you know, kind of

479
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 1: dancing bear, so to speak, but they get that opportunity

480
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: to fire off, and sometimes they fire off and then

481
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 1: they're just way out of control. Dialing was under control.

482
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 1: He got to where he was moving guys a little bit,

483
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:11,439
Speaker 1: but in essence, he just he gets guys blocked. And

484
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 1: I'm okay with that, especially out on the edge. But

485
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: the way that he passed protects, that's what that's gonna be.

486
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: Where his money's made, and I'm really excited to see

487
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 1: what he does. I just hope he doesn't end up

488
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 1: at a place that we have to face twice. That's all.

489
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 1: I would love to see him. I think he would

490
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: be a good fit for this organization on a lot

491
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 1: of different level. So there you go. A little tell

492
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 1: me about Andre Dillard. I. As I mentioned in the podcast,

493
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 1: you can listen to the rest of the inter Lab

494
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 1: podcast because we did a great segment called found Money.

495
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 1: You all have experienced that you reach into your pocket

496
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:45,719
Speaker 1: and you're like, wait a second, what's that pulled out

497
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 1: twenty bucks? WHOA found money? It's the best thing, one

498
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 1: of the top forty nine best things in the world.

499
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 1: When you reach in your pocket and it's found money.

500
00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:00,040
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's fantastic. So we went through the

501
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 1: Houston Texans Found Money on both offense and defense for

502
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, and of course we're projecting, but we I

503
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: think you'll like that. And of course our talk on

504
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 1: Andre Dillard right there as I met him at the

505
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl. You'll hear from Andre Dillard. I would imagine

506
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,479
Speaker 1: at some point on one of these Wednesdays, because I

507
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 1: interviewed him at the Senior Bowl. Talked to him about

508
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: that process. I also interviewed Caleb McGarry. I talked to

509
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: Hunter Renfro from Clemson, got some good stuff on his

510
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 1: career Clemson, but also what it was like to be

511
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 1: in a huddle with the Shawn Watson. So we'll have

512
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 1: Hunter Renfro later on as well. But Andre Dillard was

513
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 1: our tell me about and you can go listen to

514
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 1: the rest of in the lab wherever you get your podcasts,

515
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,880
Speaker 1: however you do that. But I'm telling you right now,

516
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: I would love me some Andre Dillard for this organization

517
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 1: at tackle, the way that he can move the athlete.

518
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: He is the type of guy he is, and I

519
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,479
Speaker 1: think he would fit No rookie ever fits seamlessly, especially

520
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 1: right off the bat. But guy like Justin Reid last year,

521
00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: you could see it. You could see how he fit in.

522
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: He fit in very very well. Now he added some

523
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: history with some of the guys already in the team,

524
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 1: like Tyron Matthew because Tyrren played with his brother Eric,

525
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,199
Speaker 1: who just signed a three year deal with Carolina, so

526
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 1: there was some history there. But I think you got,

527
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 1: like Godrey Diller could step right into this locker room

528
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: and fit very very well for a number of different reasons. Now,

529
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen draft, we'll put that up on the shelf

530
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 1: the Wednesday night draft, Drew Mark myself. That's next. Take

531
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,640
Speaker 1: a defensive player off a twenty nineteen opponent. We're gonna

532
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: do that next right here in Texas All Access one

533
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: final segment of Texas All Access on this Wednesday and sits.

534
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: It's Wednesday and we're in thee offseason. That means it's

535
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 1: a draft Wednesday. Yes to homies, joined me, Mark Vanimir

536
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:47,239
Speaker 1: and Drew Doherty. Boys Ready, ready, Okay, So here's how

537
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,919
Speaker 1: we're doing this. We're gonna draft one player from a

538
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen opponent off the defensive side that if you

539
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: take that guy off, you've got that much better a

540
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: chance win. Now you're not you're not getting to put

541
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 1: him on your team. That could put him on your team.

542
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 1: That could put him on your team, but you're just

543
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 1: taking him off that day him. He wants to make

544
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: a deal. Mark and I were talking about this a

545
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 1: little bit earlier. If you did the offense, would you

546
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: take Mahomes off or Brady off first? You could take

547
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: one or the other, which one would you take off

548
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 1: homes because the Patriots have beatn US without Tom Brady? Ooh,

549
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 1: that's another way of walking at it. Yeah, I thought

550
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, Chief, I don't think it matters to

551
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,159
Speaker 1: take off the Patriots other than Brady, Like, yeah, you

552
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 1: can take anybody. They're always going to figure out a

553
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: way to do. Do Do I get to take him off

554
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 1: on the whole season? Is that it's Brady for sure? Well?

555
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: Maybe so? Yeah. You know, it's interesting the Texans, all

556
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,360
Speaker 1: the times that they've played the Patriots, they've never played

557
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: the Brady Gronk Edelman triumphant right in the last few

558
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 1: how many every years? Because Eleman was at open a

559
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: day last year in fifteen, Edelman was hurt in that game,

560
00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: hurt often. Twenty sixteen, Gronk was hurt. Yep, oh, Brad

561
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: Brady was suspended. You know what, you know, what, what

562
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 1: would you rather face rookie rookie Jacoby Brissette or current

563
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer. That's I don't know. I think I might

564
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 1: be waffling now. Oh yeah, Brissette was such an unknown

565
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: in a short week, We've gone down the road with

566
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer. Oh yeah, we know, Brian Hoyer a little bit. Now,

567
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 1: all right, So for our draft, we're gonna go get

568
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 1: the defense. Okay, do it, go defense, and we're gonna

569
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 1: go youngest oldest. So Mark, you're gonna go first. All right,

570
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,439
Speaker 1: so I'm youngest, great first. Thank you very much. You

571
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:37,920
Speaker 1: need your eyes checked. Okay. So I get to pick

572
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 1: any team and remove any defender from that team, the

573
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 1: one that you would think with the first pick, the

574
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 1: one that you would think that guy right there, we

575
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: take him off. The Texans are gonna bury that well.

576
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 1: So I get to go in the Division two. You

577
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 1: can any any any I can take Darius Leonard off

578
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 1: the can if you want. That's my number one removal

579
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: pick of a defender on an opponent from the twenty

580
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: nineteen schedule. Okay, Now you can't go back to the Colts.

581
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 1: So I'm done with the Colts. You're done with the Colts.

582
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: You've taken your one player off the Colt. I think

583
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 1: do I get one game or two games without them?

584
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,919
Speaker 1: That's the question. If it's if it's only one game, Johnny,

585
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 1: I get another pick. That's true. I get another pick. Okay,

586
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 1: you do, that's true if you do. If it's an

587
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: opponent you only play once. You only get the more

588
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 1: you get the bonus of two games without that player

589
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 1: against that divisional opponent. See that. You gotta get your

590
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 1: rules straightened out here. So Darius Leonard, the game in September,

591
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: in the game in December where and you know what,

592
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: I finally got the Colts here late in the season,

593
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: and it didn't matter. I know it didn't matter. I

594
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: don't have a jest devent about this yet. Completely it

595
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: didn't matter, all right, Drew, you ready. I think the

596
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: best defensive player the Texans will face next year is

597
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 1: von Miller. But I think you can still beat the

598
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 1: Broncos even if they have Von Miller, because I don't

599
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: trust our quarterback situation. I think the second best defensive

600
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: player you're gonna face next year is Joey Bosa. And

601
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 1: they've a really good, damn good quarterback in Philip and

602
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 1: you're playing them on the road in that barren. That's

603
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 1: a good one. That's a great one. When I thought

604
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 1: of this, I thought of one player immediately, and you

605
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 1: guys have allowed me to draft him. Are we gonna

606
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 1: snake draft too? Yeah? Okay, Now the Texans have beaten

607
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars with with Jayleen Ramsey on the field,

608
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 1: with Jayalen Ramsey off the field. That said, Jalen Ramsey

609
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: for me is the pick that I I he because

610
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 1: he's going against DeAndre Hopkins. That would likely be my pick.

611
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: But you know I'm gonna take because I know he's

612
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: been an issue. You know who I like jannackn Gotway

613
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: and Gotway coming off the edge. I was there are

614
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 1: three Jags I could take off that. Yeah. Yeah, I'm

615
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: gonna take in Gockway. I should take I know choice too.

616
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: I know I should take Ramsey, but I'm gonna take

617
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: in Gockway because I just think the way that he

618
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: rushes the edge, man, he's he can be very very scary. Sure.

619
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: Um so I'm gonna go with In Gockway and I'm

620
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: gonna go to Kansas City because I think Chris Jones

621
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 1: on the interior can be You just stole Chris. I'm

622
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 1: gonna take Chris Jones from Kansas City. Just stole my pick. Man. Well,

623
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 1: you know, by the way, if we were playing offense,

624
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 1: would you take Teddy Bridgewater off the Jacksonville Jaguars roster?

625
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 1: Just now I'm kidding they might goal. What about Nick Falls?

626
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 1: Are they gonna opt for him somehow? They can't really opt,

627
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,479
Speaker 1: they can go it would make sense, all right. My

628
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 1: strategy is this, Like any team with a good quarterback,

629
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: I want to chip away at everything they have. Yes,

630
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna go to this isn't it my pick?

631
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: I stay back. I did Yannicking Gockway and Chris Jones.

632
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: Now it's Drew then then you'll snake. Then you'll get

633
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 1: to You'll get you because I was the first pick.

634
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: Yeah bad, Yeah, because you go. So I'm going over

635
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 1: the Saints and I'm going with their the guy who

636
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: some folks had the Texans taken instead of JJ Watt

637
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 1: back in twenty eleven. I'm gonna take Cam Jordan off

638
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: there because I think he causes problem run pass. So

639
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: give me Cam Jordan. It's a good one. I think

640
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,040
Speaker 1: Cam Jordan there's a lot of guys that could have

641
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 1: chose him on that defense. I was listening to somebody.

642
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: I was listening somebody the other day and they were

643
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 1: talking about a draft pick and said, yeah, he plays

644
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: a lot like oh. I was listening to Rashaan Garry.

645
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 1: Shan Garry was on with Jim and Patt on Moving

646
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: the Chains, which always bothers me now because it's not

647
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: the chains, it's a chain. But their show is called

648
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 1: Moving the Chains. And they were talking to Rashan Garry

649
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: out of Michigan and they said, who do you patting

650
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 1: your game after? And I'm always curious to these guys

651
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: kind of look at he said, Cam Jordan with the

652
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: New Orleans with the New Orleans Saints, so he definitely

653
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: has that impact. All right, you get two of them,

654
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 1: so Von Miller is still out there, right, I'll take

655
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 1: Miller off the Broncos. You're welcome. And I'm wondering that all.

656
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 1: Jarrell Casey got hurt late in the season with the Titans,

657
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,959
Speaker 1: but as he back for them next year, I think

658
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: he more than like he's gonna be. Yeah, I'll take

659
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: him off the Tennessee roster as well. Remove him. He's

660
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 1: a good defender for them and he's been again. Look,

661
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 1: it hardly guarantees you win, right, but it's pretty cool

662
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: to do this exercise because it lets you know who

663
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 1: those best defenders are. I hate this because you guys

664
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: still leave Jalen Ramsey on the on the field. You

665
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,479
Speaker 1: guys have left Jalen Rains. You know, you know what's

666
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 1: stuck in my mind his uh shall we say, lackluster

667
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 1: performance here in the regular season finale where he was

668
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: I think he was just dead set on giving DeAndre

669
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 1: Hopkins a wonderful afternoon. It just appeared to be that way. Yeah.

670
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: The point, he did have twelve catches and night twelve catches.

671
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: He needed one to break the record, and he got twelve.

672
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: That's right, because he needed thirteen. All right, Drew, I'm

673
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: gonna have Joey Bosa and Cam Jordan and I'm gonna

674
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 1: go to the Ravens, a playoff team. I wonder when

675
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: we face them. That's good. That's a good point. Yeah,

676
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: and we face them up there, it's gonna be a

677
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: big traveling Texans game. They're all gonna want to go

678
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: to the Inner Harbor. I hope it's in September. Crabs

679
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: By to Night game again. Attempted to go as a

680
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 1: dairy smith who had a lot of sacks and everything.

681
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: But I just remember Terrell Ice in the game last

682
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: time you're up there with the strip sack gets away

683
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: from Savage. He had seven sacks last year. I bet

684
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 1: you he's right around that number again in twenty nineteen.

685
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 1: Can also go with Mosley or Juden. But I'm gonna,

686
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: you know what, let's let's get one of the greatest

687
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 1: Ravens in in team history. Off the field, I'll say

688
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: he's the He's the third best one behind ray Lewis

689
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 1: ed Reid. It's gotta be I would think, so. Yeah,

690
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 1: so let's take off sugs. Yeah, Okay, Flacco's not gonna

691
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: make that list. Yeah, how about that Flacco would help

692
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 1: our defense? All right, I'm gonna go over. Drew went

693
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: over to the NFC for one of his picks. I'm

694
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 1: gonna go up to the NFC for one of my picks,

695
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: and I think he's stealing my pick. I think he's

696
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: the best inside linebacker in the game for the Carolina Panthers. Yep.

697
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: He didn't play against the Texas in twenty fifteen. Ye

698
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 1: and A. J. Klein has replaced ended up having an interception.

699
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: But I think Carolina's defense without now they're already gonna

700
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 1: be without Thomas Davis because they're moving on. But I

701
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 1: think Luke Keikley. Take Luke Keikily off of CAROLINEA and

702
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,839
Speaker 1: I know that game being here, I'll take Luke Keikley. Yeah,

703
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 1: I knew you'd do that, all right, And then I

704
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: get another one. I hate the Snake draft. Snake then

705
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: got Bob Miller draft. And because you took von Miller,

706
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,399
Speaker 1: that's leaving me the opportunity because I did not pick

707
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: anybody from Denver. I'm gonna take Bradley Chubb because I

708
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: can't take Von Miller, so I might as well just

709
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: take his partner. And I think in his second year,

710
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: I think Bradley Chub is gonna be a problem. He was,

711
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: he was a problem this year. First time we've had

712
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 1: to go to it, same team twice. Now Denver, Yeah, Denver.

713
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: Here are the teams we haven't touched yet, Oakland, the Bucks, Falcons,

714
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 1: the Patriots, and did you take Casey off the Titans? Yes,

715
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 1: he did, so we got that. So yeah, so I'm

716
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 1: going with Bradley Chubb, taking Bradley Chubb off of Denver,

717
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 1: and I'm hoping that one of those guys won't play

718
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: in the game when we face them here, which would

719
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,400
Speaker 1: be kind of which would be kind of fun. All Right,

720
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: it snakes back to Drew. You're up pick number four.

721
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: Wait wait, wait, he took Chubb and you took Keikle Chubb.

722
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna I think the Falcons can kind

723
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: of mess with some people anytime you have a quarterback,

724
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:17,720
Speaker 1: like I said, Matt Ryan. So that was a shaky defense,

725
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 1: I would say it injured defense. Yes, because they're Yeah,

726
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,719
Speaker 1: because they were injured. I'm gonna take talk. Tack McKinley off.

727
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 1: I have a falcon. I have two falcons in mind. Oh,

728
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: I got a falcon right here for you. Okay, tack

729
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 1: McKinley off the edge. Drew explain just Ed Rusher Ed rusher.

730
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not worried about DeAndre Hopkins. I think

731
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 1: he can match up and beat anybody. So I know

732
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 1: you might want to go with Kazy. He had seven picks. Yeah,

733
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 1: but I don't think that's I think the Texans, you know,

734
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 1: with their past protection problems, I'm always gonna I'm always

735
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: gonna defer and try to take the best pass rusher

736
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,480
Speaker 1: off the field. I haven't Atlanta falcon in mine. It's

737
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 1: neither one of those two, actually two of them in mind.

738
00:35:55,360 --> 00:36:00,080
Speaker 1: You're going with all right, Demante Kyzy, all right, and

739
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,719
Speaker 1: I gotta go again, don't I You got a second one?

740
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: Did we take Ramsey. No, I'll take I'll take Ramsey

741
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: right here. It's it's now. Are we gonna keep going

742
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: until we remove all the defenders from No, we'll get

743
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 1: to This is the fifth rounde So I mean we're

744
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 1: this is pretty much just pretty much it. Yeah, but

745
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,359
Speaker 1: Casey saw at the Senior Bowl a couple of years ago,

746
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 1: and the one thing I remember from him about San

747
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 1: Diego State was he found the football, like some of

748
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: those guys that you watch and you're like, guy just

749
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,359
Speaker 1: finds the football somehow. One of those guys, the ball

750
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: finds the ball, the ball finds them, you know. I

751
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: mean not to take credit away from the player, but

752
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,399
Speaker 1: some guys are just football magnets accounts. Casey seven picks

753
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 1: last year, Andre hall As. All these picks just happens.

754
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 1: So Mark ends up with Darius Leonard von Miller, Duo Casey,

755
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 1: Demante Casey, and Jalen Rams. Jale Ramsey won the fifth round.

756
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 1: I think a lot of that has to has to

757
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 1: do with we have DeAndre Hopkins. But I still, I mean,

758
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,759
Speaker 1: I I struggled whether I wanted to take Ramsey or

759
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:00,879
Speaker 1: when you look at the out of his highlight reel

760
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: one of the great catches was the sideline one against Jacksonville,

761
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 1: and Ramsey is closer in coverage. Yeah, on that play

762
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: than some of our corners were in some of the

763
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 1: last He still, he still played a good game against Town,

764
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: the first one. He's still he was a good game.

765
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: I think what DeAndre had three catches and who shut

766
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: down t Y Hilt. Yeah, I mean he's the reason

767
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,239
Speaker 1: that it was sixth to nothing. All Right, Drew, you

768
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 1: have Joey Bosa, Cam Jordan Terrell, Suggs, Tack McKinley, you

769
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 1: have this last pick. Who will it be. I don't

770
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 1: think you're gonna have a real problem beating the Bucks.

771
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: I think he can go take care of Tampa Bay.

772
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: So let's uh, let's chop away at their pass rush.

773
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,359
Speaker 1: Jason Pierre paud dozen half sacks last year. He let's

774
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 1: get rid of him. He could still do it despite

775
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 1: the hands situation. It's gonna be interesting in Tampa Bay

776
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 1: what they do with Dura McCoy. Yeah. I don't know

777
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 1: if he was on my list, but I don't know

778
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 1: if he's back. Yeah, they don't they. I mean when

779
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 1: he was interviewed at the end of the year and

780
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 1: they asked him about, you know, coming back. He was

781
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: he wasn't tears, almost like, yeah, I don't know. I'm

782
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: gonna end up somewhere, like I love Jerod McCoy, I

783
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 1: love it. I don't know they would fit in Houston,

784
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: would be too expensive and they've got other priorities. But

785
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 1: uh okay, so here we go. Here are some of

786
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: the players that we didn't take. I still have one

787
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 1: more spots, so I'm gonna talk myself into a pick

788
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: here Jacksonville. We didn't take Clay's Campbell. Oh, we left

789
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,759
Speaker 1: him on the board in the first round. When James

790
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 1: and San Diego is a good one. O ye, d

791
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:36,879
Speaker 1: Ford's a good one, justin He's a darn your double

792
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 1: digit sack guy. Well, here here were the guys that

793
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 1: had it down to I was thinking Atlanta. I was

794
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 1: thinking Grady Jarrett, but you don't know whether Grady Jarrett's

795
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: gonna be back. I mean he's a stud. And the

796
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 1: other one I thought it was Dion Jones, linebacker, guy

797
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: that can run do a lot of different things for you.

798
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 1: Those are the two guys. But Derwin James, I love

799
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,439
Speaker 1: Derwin James. I mean, no Ty Flowers, no Dietrich Wise.

800
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 1: I love Kyle Vanoy. It was one of my favorite

801
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: draft crushes a few years ago. But when Derwin James

802
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: fell to number seventeen. We're sitting here for the draft night,

803
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,320
Speaker 1: and when he fell to seventeen night, I was like,

804
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 1: forget it, shut down. That's exactly what Ella needed. They

805
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 1: got boasted, they got ingram. Did you just say LA? Yeah,

806
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: I mean I'm getting used to say in the LA

807
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: part of that there yet. So I'm gonna call them

808
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 1: when we play them, get ready, I'm gonna call them

809
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 1: the Chargers all day long. It's not gonna be Los Angeles. Well,

810
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 1: remember when the Raiders moved to LA in the eighties.

811
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 1: A lot of announcers wouldn't even call them the LA

812
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 1: Raiders the Raiders. Yeah, it's gonna be the Chargers. I

813
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 1: could see that. You can do what Troy Aikman did.

814
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 1: He had a little note that he put on his

815
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: monitor and it said Los Angeles Chargers. It's just still

816
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: so strange. It is. That troubled me more than any

817
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: other move in the NFL. So we did not pick

818
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: anybody from New England. Yeah, because they well you have

819
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,799
Speaker 1: high towery of other guys who played really well. They

820
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,200
Speaker 1: make plays, but there's not just one stud player. If

821
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 1: you remove him is going to change the whole world.

822
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,360
Speaker 1: Van Noys pretty good, you know. And then yeah, I

823
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 1: mean it's like they have eleven above average players that

824
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: are so cohesive placed the world together their pluses. That's

825
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 1: how they look at is he a plus? Then put

826
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 1: them on there and is he coachable? Will he know

827
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 1: what we're trying to do here? Because if you don't

828
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,439
Speaker 1: pay attention to the instructions, then obviously you're not gonna

829
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 1: be there very long. But you added guys like High Tower.

830
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: I mean High Tower can do a lot of different

831
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 1: things for you. Kyle Vanoy can do I mean the

832
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: play of Vanoy makes the Super Bowl where basically knocks

833
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: out Josh Reynolds. They're running a bootleg and hide boots basically,

834
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: so the tight end or the way she hides himself

835
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:42,360
Speaker 1: back in the line and Vanoy blasts Reynolds, stays on

836
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 1: his feet and then runs golf out of bounds on

837
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 1: the same play, And you're like, what about Gilmore? And

838
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 1: Gilmore played as well as he's ever played, but it's

839
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 1: funny with them because Logan Ryan goes Malcolm Butler goes

840
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 1: other teams. If you had won the way they've won

841
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 1: with those guys, you'd be like, we got to hold

842
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: out of these guys. There's no way we can afford

843
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,320
Speaker 1: to let these guys go, not financially necessarily, but in

844
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 1: a football winning sense. No problem with them. They let

845
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 1: guys walk all the time. They want him to walk,

846
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:11,320
Speaker 1: and they fill from underneath. So here's how we voted,

847
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: or here's how we drafted one a player, one defensive

848
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 1: player off a twenty nineteen opponent to help the Texans win.

849
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 1: Mark Won, Darius Leonard, von Miller, Drell Casey, Demante Kazy

850
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,840
Speaker 1: of Atlanta, and Jayden Ramsey. Drew went with Joey Bosa,

851
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 1: Cam Jordan Terrell, Suggs, Tach McKinley, and Jpp. You have

852
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 1: a definite theme with the five guys you took, YEP.

853
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 1: That is they all play on the edge at all,

854
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 1: can rush the quarterback. I went with Yannick and got Way,

855
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:38,840
Speaker 1: Chris Jones, Luke Keickley, Bradley Chubb, and Darwyn James. I

856
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,839
Speaker 1: kind of spread mine out a little bit. Last time

857
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 1: the Texans played Carolina, Keickley didn't play and they lost anyway,

858
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,799
Speaker 1: I know Ryan, but still going into twenty nineteen. Though

859
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, is it any show where I get a

860
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 1: Ryan Mallett reference, I'm gonna do it, Darnett. But who

861
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:59,279
Speaker 1: threw JJ Watt his first touchdown pass? That's right, Ryan Mallett? Well, Ryan, no, no,

862
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 1: it's it was. It was yeah, Ryan, the first one. Yeah,

863
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: I should have said that. Who caught Ryan Mollot's first

864
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,279
Speaker 1: touchdown past? J J? Watch? But there you go, guys,

865
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 1: appreciate it, thank you, and then you're having a big

866
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: thanks to Mark, to Drew, to all of you for listening.

867
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,280
Speaker 1: We'll see Tom everybody, and it's always go Texas.
