WEBVTT - Recapping Day 2 of the Jets' 2022 NFL Draft (4/30)

0:00:03.840 --> 0:00:06.480
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the official five. We were presented by Win Batt.

0:00:06.519 --> 0:00:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Betting is a team sport, but together Win Batt Eric

0:00:08.960 --> 0:00:13.039
<v Speaker 1>Allen here againside the studio with Anthony Bett, Eric Coleman,

0:00:13.520 --> 0:00:18.560
<v Speaker 1>Trader Joe up to his tricks again here to get

0:00:18.880 --> 0:00:23.400
<v Speaker 1>night to the two thousand two draft under way. Making

0:00:23.440 --> 0:00:27.000
<v Speaker 1>a trade with the New York Giants. A Crosstown Giants

0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:30.560
<v Speaker 1>goes up to spots, gives the Giants a fifth round pick,

0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:34.680
<v Speaker 1>and he takes Breece Hall out of Iowa State. Anthony,

0:00:35.080 --> 0:00:39.040
<v Speaker 1>were he surprised by the selection and also what kind

0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:42.000
<v Speaker 1>of player in the Jets game? No, not surprised at all.

0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:44.520
<v Speaker 1>I think they're playing with house money at that point

0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:48.200
<v Speaker 1>in the second rounds um, they're getting an elite offensive

0:00:48.200 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 1>talent that basically carried this entire program on his back

0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:54.520
<v Speaker 1>for the last you know, two and a half seasons.

0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Super productive, a ton of touches, over eight hundred touches

0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:01.160
<v Speaker 1>in his career. He's still only twenty years old. Uh

0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:06.640
<v Speaker 1>excellent patients as an outside zone runner, inside zone runner, downhill,

0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:09.559
<v Speaker 1>power gap scheme type style runner, and when he gets

0:01:09.560 --> 0:01:11.960
<v Speaker 1>to the second and third level, he's got great awareness

0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:15.160
<v Speaker 1>and great ability to make people miss and an extraordinary

0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:18.039
<v Speaker 1>burst with his fourth three eight speed and the most

0:01:18.080 --> 0:01:20.559
<v Speaker 1>important thing, guys, he can get it in the end zone.

0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:25.200
<v Speaker 1>Fifty touchdowns I think straight games he scored a touchdown. Um,

0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:27.760
<v Speaker 1>he is an elite back and he can catch the

0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:31.800
<v Speaker 1>football as well. So eight plus catches doing that. Elijah

0:01:31.840 --> 0:01:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Vera Tucker in two thousand one, Jeremaine Johnson and round

0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:39.080
<v Speaker 1>one here in two Breece Hall in round two in

0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:43.480
<v Speaker 1>two Joe Douglas not afraid to use that capital goal.

0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:45.360
<v Speaker 1>I love it. I love it. You see a guy

0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:47.720
<v Speaker 1>out there that you know can help your team, that

0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:50.000
<v Speaker 1>can that can come out in here and and be

0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:52.960
<v Speaker 1>a first day starter on this team. Go get him.

0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:55.440
<v Speaker 1>Go forget the forget about the rest of the pigs,

0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Go get your guy. And I love what they got

0:01:57.560 --> 0:02:00.120
<v Speaker 1>in Breece Hall. You know, he's a guy who was

0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:02.920
<v Speaker 1>a three down back who can run between the tackles,

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:06.280
<v Speaker 1>He runs behind his pads, and he's deceptively fast. I

0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>think earlier we were talking and you said that he

0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 1>reminds you of like a Matt Forte, and I see that.

0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:13.400
<v Speaker 1>I see how smooth of a runner he is. He

0:02:13.480 --> 0:02:15.520
<v Speaker 1>has great vision, he has great patience, he sets up

0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:17.679
<v Speaker 1>his blocks. Well. I think he's gonna be a great

0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:21.480
<v Speaker 1>addition to this New York Jets offense. So much speed

0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:23.519
<v Speaker 1>being drafted in these first two rounds. All right, we

0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:25.679
<v Speaker 1>gotta be honest. Though, we did a mock draft here

0:02:26.440 --> 0:02:28.919
<v Speaker 1>inside the studio a couple of days ago. You were

0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:32.919
<v Speaker 1>virtual and Anthony Beck takes Breeze Hall out of i

0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:37.400
<v Speaker 1>With State. Look, I felt like it's a luxury pick

0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:39.960
<v Speaker 1>for the team. Um, you know, do they need a

0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:42.760
<v Speaker 1>running back? No? But can you get through a season

0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:45.400
<v Speaker 1>with one young back? I think we've looked at the

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Jets over the last couple of years and that doesn't

0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:50.079
<v Speaker 1>really happen. Right, You need more bodies, and now you're

0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:52.720
<v Speaker 1>talking about an elite body. So this is the top

0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:56.680
<v Speaker 1>running back in the draft, folks. Vertical Okay, he grated

0:02:56.760 --> 0:02:59.400
<v Speaker 1>very high across the board and testing, so he's a

0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:03.120
<v Speaker 1>superior athlete. And literally, you know, everybody week the week

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.600
<v Speaker 1>when he was at Iowa State, everybody on defense knew

0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:08.280
<v Speaker 1>he was the catalyst that made the engine run. And

0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 1>they still couldn't stop him. They loaded the box up.

0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:14.519
<v Speaker 1>I watched him play games where eight almost nine guys

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:17.120
<v Speaker 1>in the box. Those guys blocked them up and stuff,

0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.400
<v Speaker 1>but he's still finds a way to get through and

0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:22.440
<v Speaker 1>make people miss man. Uh. He's fun to watch and

0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:24.920
<v Speaker 1>he is a big time pickup for this football team.

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:27.519
<v Speaker 1>He is gonna be good. You're gonna want more carries

0:03:27.560 --> 0:03:30.240
<v Speaker 1>from it. I'd be shocked if he doesn't come in

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.960
<v Speaker 1>during the season and really like wow, Like this kid

0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.080
<v Speaker 1>is pretty good. I know immediately when he gets the

0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>training camp, he's gonna have that effect. Do you worry

0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:39.200
<v Speaker 1>about the workload, the touches that he had third college?

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:41.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I don't. He's young, Anthony said, he's twenty

0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:43.880
<v Speaker 1>years old. This is a young man. Uh, and and

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.800
<v Speaker 1>he's not going to get anything close to that here

0:03:47.200 --> 0:03:49.280
<v Speaker 1>with the Jets because you don't see a lot of

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:51.640
<v Speaker 1>running backs getting thirty carries like they did, you know

0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:54.320
<v Speaker 1>back in the day. He's gonna get fourteen fifteen carries

0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:56.640
<v Speaker 1>a game. Uh, Michael Carter is gonna get the other

0:03:56.800 --> 0:03:59.480
<v Speaker 1>the rest and so you still have Tevin Coleman, Todd Johnson.

0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:01.880
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of work to go around. And what

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:03.920
<v Speaker 1>I like about Breeze Hall is that he can catch

0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 1>the ball out of the backfield. You know, you can

0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:08.680
<v Speaker 1>run your screens, you can run swing passes. Your check

0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:11.840
<v Speaker 1>down pass can get turned into an eight yard play.

0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:14.520
<v Speaker 1>So a guy who can make people missing open field.

0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:17.880
<v Speaker 1>He has the speed to go the distance. You know,

0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:20.640
<v Speaker 1>look at him. He's an All American. This guy knows

0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:25.800
<v Speaker 1>how to play ball. Carries stay last year two three

0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:28.760
<v Speaker 1>carries nearly fifteen hundred yards on the ground every five

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:33.200
<v Speaker 1>point five yards to carry. For those watching on YouTube

0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:35.719
<v Speaker 1>or New York Just dot com, that's fifty touchdowns on

0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:38.360
<v Speaker 1>the ground. And another thing that he just talked about

0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:42.400
<v Speaker 1>is could be Zake Wilson's front on the backfield thirty

0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:45.400
<v Speaker 1>six receptions last year, eighty two for his career. Um,

0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 1>he's really a depth. He looks very comfortable like getting

0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:53.200
<v Speaker 1>out and running some patterns, very smooth, understand space. You know,

0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 1>can match up out of the backfielders the back or

0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:57.240
<v Speaker 1>beat him one on one and get into the open

0:04:57.240 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 1>area catch the football. Um. You know, I think when

0:04:59.880 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 1>we watch Zack Wilson last year, some of the struggles

0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.279
<v Speaker 1>he had was kind of getting those easy throws to

0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:06.360
<v Speaker 1>those backs or whoever tight ends. Well, now he's gonna

0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:09.479
<v Speaker 1>have dudes that are capable of making big plays in

0:05:09.480 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 1>those situations with Briefe and of course continuing with Michael

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Carter and of course the two tight ends. So uh,

0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:17.919
<v Speaker 1>this takes a lot of pressure off your quarterback. You know,

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.800
<v Speaker 1>we we get enamored by all these throws that Zack

0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Wilson made in his pro day and at b y U,

0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:25.920
<v Speaker 1>he's not gonna have to do that. Those plays are

0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:28.160
<v Speaker 1>now gonna come open for him a little more naturally

0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:30.960
<v Speaker 1>within the play development and progressions because now you've got

0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:33.760
<v Speaker 1>multiple weapons, you know, coming out of the backfield, going

0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:37.160
<v Speaker 1>across in motion, Elijah Moore, all these different things now

0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:39.560
<v Speaker 1>two tight ends, one tight end, tight end, split out

0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:43.279
<v Speaker 1>two backs, maybe Briefe and and and uh and my

0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:45.800
<v Speaker 1>car on the field at the same time. I mean, wow, Like,

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, Michael Flore, like you know, he's he's kind

0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:50.160
<v Speaker 1>of be like, you know, the ultimate man signs is

0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:52.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna be cooking. All the smoke's gonna be coming out

0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:56.760
<v Speaker 1>of his office Instagram right looking over the jet set.

0:05:57.440 --> 0:05:59.320
<v Speaker 1>But I thought that was great. He's looking at him like, wow,

0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:02.599
<v Speaker 1>Now I got you. Silence taking a look at La

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:06.559
<v Speaker 1>Flour said, yeah, man, And I think all that starts

0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:08.719
<v Speaker 1>with the offensive line and what they've done, you know,

0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.400
<v Speaker 1>establishing this line. You look at it across the board.

0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:14.039
<v Speaker 1>You bring in Lake and Thomlinson, you already have Vera

0:06:14.120 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Tucker McKay beck and he comes back healthy. I mean,

0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:20.240
<v Speaker 1>you have the key components for a great run game.

0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:22.719
<v Speaker 1>You know they're gonna be able to protect the quarterback.

0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Give Zach Wilson some time and all the pressure won't

0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:27.480
<v Speaker 1>be on your quarterback now that you can run the

0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:30.560
<v Speaker 1>football briefe Hall to another specialty that he brings to

0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.080
<v Speaker 1>the table. What's your offensive lineman are gonna love? Is

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:36.040
<v Speaker 1>a back that understands how to set up his lineman.

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Yes to block, So he's waiting, waiting, gets a guy

0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:42.280
<v Speaker 1>to go, and then baby comes here and now it's

0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:44.680
<v Speaker 1>an easier block for the lineman instead of a guy

0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:46.880
<v Speaker 1>that just like catches the ball, takes it from the

0:06:46.960 --> 0:06:49.440
<v Speaker 1>quarterback and just tries to hit into this hole with

0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:52.720
<v Speaker 1>no one. Yeah, that's not that's not briests man, That's

0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:54.440
<v Speaker 1>not how he's round the ball. That's that's been his

0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:57.040
<v Speaker 1>whole career and he's made guys. Look, really, I'm kind

0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:59.000
<v Speaker 1>of interested in how we're gonna handle this. Michael Carter

0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.000
<v Speaker 1>on both sides of the ball. Got Breese Hall, You

0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:04.159
<v Speaker 1>got Bryce Hall. Man, it's gonna be It's gonna be yeah,

0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Zach Wilson, what about Jonathan Taylor. That's a name that

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:14.960
<v Speaker 1>some people have thrown out there when they were trying

0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:18.360
<v Speaker 1>to look for a pro comp. Four day four mench

0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:23.600
<v Speaker 1>of Briest Hall because eighteen pounds and he's a four

0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:26.560
<v Speaker 1>three nine guy. I think it's a good comp. But

0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:29.280
<v Speaker 1>it's just a piece of his game, right. He also

0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:31.680
<v Speaker 1>gives you and and I don't want to bring this name,

0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:36.200
<v Speaker 1>but that patience of a of the pinnacle of Levian Bell,

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:38.880
<v Speaker 1>that kind of style running is what you know, we

0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:40.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of all thought that we're gonna get here several

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.600
<v Speaker 1>years ago. We didn't get those Steeler days. But those

0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:45.520
<v Speaker 1>are the runs that he can make as well. So

0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:48.800
<v Speaker 1>it's a combination of those kind of guys, and you know,

<v Speaker 1>you know has a gambling problem called one seven zero

0:08:32.600 --> 0:08:35.960
<v Speaker 1>seven one one seven. Just think about where the Jets

0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:38.840
<v Speaker 1>have come in the last calendar year. Maybe in a

0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:43.320
<v Speaker 1>couple of months, draft Elijah More or last year signed

0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Corey Davison, free agency, draft Garrett Wilson, this year, draft

0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:53.560
<v Speaker 1>Breest Hall. You're starting to see it all come together

0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:57.199
<v Speaker 1>at Braxton Burials. Toget and he was here, but he resigns.

0:08:57.280 --> 0:09:02.800
<v Speaker 1>But Elijah More, Corey Davis, he didn't get time coming out,

0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:06.240
<v Speaker 1>but for a big guy, he really can move. And

0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 1>then Garrett Wilson sub for four as well. So the

0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:13.400
<v Speaker 1>speed dynamic is gonna be a lot different on this

0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:18.040
<v Speaker 1>football field compared to even just a year ago. Absolutely.

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:20.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean you talk about we talked about offense and

0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:23.439
<v Speaker 1>defense with the speed, but look at the special teams units.

0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:25.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, look how they're going to improve with with

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:30.960
<v Speaker 1>all this depth that they've created. This team gott strides better.

0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:33.920
<v Speaker 1>They got a lot better on offense. Defense, you have

0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:37.040
<v Speaker 1>a lockdown corner and Sauce Gardner. You already brought in

0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:39.800
<v Speaker 1>one of DJ Reid. Uh you know you you add

0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:43.200
<v Speaker 1>in all these talented players, Garrett Wilson on offense, a

0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.560
<v Speaker 1>guy who's gonna help spread that field open along with

0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Elijah Moore. I mean, look at the youth, Look at

0:09:48.480 --> 0:09:51.360
<v Speaker 1>the speed, Look at the intensity that is brought into here.

0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:54.320
<v Speaker 1>There they're the all these guys have Robert Salas persona

0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:56.440
<v Speaker 1>that all gas, no breaks. It's gonna be a lot

0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:59.720
<v Speaker 1>of fun competition and practice, right, I mean, think about

0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:03.240
<v Speaker 1>corners safety. All these guys are gonna be competing for

0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:06.040
<v Speaker 1>valuable time. And now we're gonna get a tremendous amount

0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:08.120
<v Speaker 1>of great players on the field at once that are

0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:10.920
<v Speaker 1>determined to be the best at their position. It's it's

0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 1>it's a good time right now. And I think we

0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:16.880
<v Speaker 1>all kind of predicted that, Like, look with the free

0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:20.120
<v Speaker 1>agent moves last year, this year, the draft capital last year,

0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:22.880
<v Speaker 1>this year, that there can be some significant changes. And

0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:25.800
<v Speaker 1>the one thing that Joe Douglas trust the process, right,

0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:28.800
<v Speaker 1>it's not happening last year. It's part of the process. Now.

0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:30.760
<v Speaker 1>You look what you're adding into the fold with all

0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:33.559
<v Speaker 1>the new pieces coming in, and they still got more picks,

0:10:33.679 --> 0:10:36.840
<v Speaker 1>and there's some heavy hitters dropping still that are still

0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:38.920
<v Speaker 1>available in this draft and make them even more home

0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:41.040
<v Speaker 1>run hits. Like you talk about even if it's a

0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:43.280
<v Speaker 1>special team player, you might get a really good, high

0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:46.120
<v Speaker 1>end special team player and a guy that can ultimately start.

0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:48.120
<v Speaker 1>But we look at all these picks, these guys are

0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:50.959
<v Speaker 1>gonna be, uh you know, at least in my eyes,

0:10:51.480 --> 0:10:54.440
<v Speaker 1>pushing to be on the field immediately for the Jets. Yeah,

0:10:55.400 --> 0:11:00.640
<v Speaker 1>start with Gardner, Garrett Wilson, like my mentioned, um, Jermaine

0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:04.040
<v Speaker 1>Johnson going to be part of that pass rush. You

0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:07.520
<v Speaker 1>have so many different options. I just I just find

0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:14.560
<v Speaker 1>it fascinating the speed difference on this roster over the

0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:17.760
<v Speaker 1>course of eighteen months or so. It's just gonna be

0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:23.840
<v Speaker 1>so noticeable in a league that favors guys who can

0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:29.400
<v Speaker 1>do damage with the ball in their hands. Take a

0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:32.680
<v Speaker 1>dump pass five yards and turn it into fifty, or

0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:35.560
<v Speaker 1>take a screen, take a slant and go to the

0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:39.080
<v Speaker 1>house like Garrett Wilson. Can you have more guys who

0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:41.280
<v Speaker 1>are gonna help you get those big plays in a

0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:44.680
<v Speaker 1>hurry and then also get to the quarterback defensive way? Yeah?

0:11:44.679 --> 0:11:47.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, and you talk about Jamaine Johnson and Anthony

0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:50.280
<v Speaker 1>You've been saying it since we picked him, a guy

0:11:50.280 --> 0:11:52.680
<v Speaker 1>who has seventy tackles at d N. What that means

0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:55.320
<v Speaker 1>is he's getting to the ball every place. He's not

0:11:55.400 --> 0:11:58.320
<v Speaker 1>just making the splash plays that a normal defensive end does.

0:11:58.520 --> 0:12:01.280
<v Speaker 1>He's pursuing. He's flying over the field, and when he

0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:04.959
<v Speaker 1>gets there, he has terrible intentions. He's trying to hurt people.

0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:07.319
<v Speaker 1>This guy is physical. He's gonna bring a different a

0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:11.520
<v Speaker 1>different level of physicality to the defense. And I just

0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:13.760
<v Speaker 1>I love it. I love these young guys that really

0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:16.280
<v Speaker 1>loved the game of football. They play with their hair

0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:18.280
<v Speaker 1>on fire. And it's gonna be great. It's gonna be

0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:23.120
<v Speaker 1>chip on his shoulder. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's he's here

0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:25.720
<v Speaker 1>at six, but he thought, you know, people like top

0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:28.040
<v Speaker 1>ten for this dude. And he's been through a journey

0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:30.280
<v Speaker 1>now and that maybe why. I mean, he was at

0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:34.000
<v Speaker 1>uh Juco, you know, trying to find his way. Yeah,

0:12:34.120 --> 0:12:36.240
<v Speaker 1>last chance you I mean, you know those guys are

0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:39.320
<v Speaker 1>that's a tough deal now they it's not like, you know,

0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:41.559
<v Speaker 1>having fun and and get all the accolades and some

0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:44.280
<v Speaker 1>of these big school worked his way up and uh

0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:46.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, finally found his home at Florida State for

0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:48.800
<v Speaker 1>his final year and he made the most of it.

0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:51.480
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, extreme amount of production out of all these guys.

0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:54.240
<v Speaker 1>You're looking at their numbers, it's sick numbers across the

0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:57.560
<v Speaker 1>board for these four players, leaders of each of each

0:12:57.600 --> 0:12:59.920
<v Speaker 1>position in their category. Yeah. And the other thing is

0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:04.319
<v Speaker 1>a character. I mean, these guys definitely dynamic talents. But

0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:10.000
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna fit very good into a culture that you

0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:14.000
<v Speaker 1>see Robert Sala and Joe Douglas building here what they want.

0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:17.319
<v Speaker 1>These guys love football. They're gonna be good teammates. There

0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:20.400
<v Speaker 1>were good teammates on the college level. You guys mentioned Johnson.

0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:24.160
<v Speaker 1>He's a guy who stayed in touch with everybody in Georgia.

0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:28.359
<v Speaker 1>I was happy, was celebrated when they won a national championship.

0:13:28.440 --> 0:13:30.200
<v Speaker 1>He said he just had to go to Florida State

0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:33.600
<v Speaker 1>to further his development, and he took that next step.

0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:37.280
<v Speaker 1>But I've been so impressed talking to Sauce Gardner thinking

0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:41.320
<v Speaker 1>about his story, how he was so lightly recruited coming

0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:46.079
<v Speaker 1>to Cincinnati, undersized talk even I don't know what it

0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:48.559
<v Speaker 1>was like five pounds in the high school, and that

0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:53.240
<v Speaker 1>he just took off lanky kid and then steps along

0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:57.640
<v Speaker 1>the way. And Garrett Wilson think about what competition did

0:13:57.679 --> 0:14:01.320
<v Speaker 1>for him at Ohio, stayed playing with Crystal Jameson Williams.

0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:03.520
<v Speaker 1>By the way, those guys go ton of eleven and

0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:05.640
<v Speaker 1>twelve in the draft. That was really kind of ironic

0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:09.520
<v Speaker 1>if we look back at it. But these guys, when

0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:13.640
<v Speaker 1>Sala says we're looking for players who love football, these

0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:16.480
<v Speaker 1>guys all fit the bill. Yeah, And sometimes when you

0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:18.360
<v Speaker 1>mentioned those kind of guys that they don't really have

0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:21.320
<v Speaker 1>maybe the matching numbers, they're like, oh, yeah, we just

0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:23.080
<v Speaker 1>love the way you play. But these guys do you

0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:26.040
<v Speaker 1>get both like very rare, you know, And it's very

0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:28.320
<v Speaker 1>rare where you can actually talk about four guys like

0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:31.560
<v Speaker 1>literally are all interchangeable as being arguably the best player

0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:34.520
<v Speaker 1>in this in this draft lineup for them. Again, I

0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:38.360
<v Speaker 1>can't get over. Uh, how happy is Zach Wilson that

0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:41.560
<v Speaker 1>you're able to get these guys. I mean, it's impressive.

0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:45.240
<v Speaker 1>He's got I mean, listen, he's look. I've said it yesterday,

0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I'll say it again. Go to work, exact, just go

0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:51.840
<v Speaker 1>do your thing, get better every day, make football. And

0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I know he is. Make it important to you every

0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:57.080
<v Speaker 1>little detail. It's not it's more than throwing. It's more

0:14:57.120 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 1>than getting on the film. It's more than asking coach

0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:02.400
<v Speaker 1>more questions. It's it's it's got to be every detailed

0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:04.720
<v Speaker 1>aspect of what you do in your life has to

0:15:04.760 --> 0:15:07.600
<v Speaker 1>be uh has to be all about the quarterback position,

0:15:07.600 --> 0:15:10.920
<v Speaker 1>improving yourself. If he does that, he has an opportunity

0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:12.760
<v Speaker 1>to be one of the best ever put a uniform

0:15:12.800 --> 0:15:15.360
<v Speaker 1>on here. Because of the pieces around him, it's on him.

0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, nobody's gonna be able to just make that happen.

0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:19.840
<v Speaker 1>He's got to make that happen. And again, that goes

0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:22.360
<v Speaker 1>across to the guys, we just drafted. If they just

0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:25.480
<v Speaker 1>do what they've been doing, it's gonna be good. Michael Flair,

0:15:25.720 --> 0:15:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Michael Flair has so many options, so we keep on

0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:30.120
<v Speaker 1>talking about that. But you just added Breese all to

0:15:30.160 --> 0:15:32.840
<v Speaker 1>the equation. That means. So we're saying that yesterday when

0:15:32.840 --> 0:15:36.000
<v Speaker 1>you pick up Garrett Wilson, but now you come back

0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:40.320
<v Speaker 1>with Breece Hall was the most productive back in college football.

0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Dynamic talent, So you just keep on adding to the mix.

0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:47.760
<v Speaker 1>You really addressed the tightime position. You mentioned Lank and Tomlinson,

0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:51.400
<v Speaker 1>You mentioned all the pieces up front where they're building,

0:15:52.120 --> 0:15:55.800
<v Speaker 1>Zach Wilson, the number two overall selection last year, More

0:15:56.120 --> 0:16:01.360
<v Speaker 1>and Davis and Garrett Wilson. Um. You know, it's gonna

0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:04.120
<v Speaker 1>be interesting to watch how quickly this all can come

0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:07.080
<v Speaker 1>together now because there are a lot of new pieces,

0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:10.520
<v Speaker 1>but there are a lot of talented pieces, absolutely, I mean,

0:16:11.400 --> 0:16:14.280
<v Speaker 1>and you're adding that competition, you adding that that intensity,

0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:16.920
<v Speaker 1>that want to get better. You know, Sauce talks about

0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:19.360
<v Speaker 1>coming in here trying to get better, trying to learn

0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:23.000
<v Speaker 1>from your teammates. Garrett Wilson comes in with Corey Davis

0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:26.640
<v Speaker 1>in the locker room, you know, with with Braxton Barrios,

0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:29.040
<v Speaker 1>you know he had. There's there's guys, there's veterans in

0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 1>each position that these guys can all come in and

0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:33.960
<v Speaker 1>learn from and good enough players that they can push

0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:35.920
<v Speaker 1>them to be the best that they can be. Karl

0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:39.240
<v Speaker 1>Lawson is coming off injury. Imagine when him him healthy,

0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Jermaine Johnson on the other side, and that defense behind

0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:45.000
<v Speaker 1>him flying to the ball. It's gonna it's gonna be

0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:47.520
<v Speaker 1>really nice to see. And honestly, you know, just a

0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:49.840
<v Speaker 1>message to the current players. You know, and I don't

0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:51.760
<v Speaker 1>know who they are. They all maybe if you're not

0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:53.840
<v Speaker 1>in the building or you're gonna be getting in the

0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:56.520
<v Speaker 1>buildings soon, get here, man, because having all these guys

0:16:56.560 --> 0:17:01.280
<v Speaker 1>together right now, going through O T A S. Working out, running, grinding,

0:17:01.400 --> 0:17:04.399
<v Speaker 1>sweating with your guys, and you bring in this rookie batch, man,

0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:06.960
<v Speaker 1>it's it could be special, but you gotta put that

0:17:07.040 --> 0:17:09.080
<v Speaker 1>it's gotta be team, man. It's gotta be about the team.

0:17:09.440 --> 0:17:11.680
<v Speaker 1>And if all these players are here doing that every

0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:14.320
<v Speaker 1>single day like we did back when we played, good

0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:16.679
<v Speaker 1>things can happen. We were here when those years happened,

0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:19.280
<v Speaker 1>that good things can happen real fast. For this football

0:17:19.320 --> 0:17:22.119
<v Speaker 1>team if they're here completely every single day heading in

0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:24.040
<v Speaker 1>the train. I just want on with this. What were

0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:28.240
<v Speaker 1>your thoughts overall on we talked about Tyreek Hill. I'm

0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:30.399
<v Speaker 1>putting that to bed, but there was a report here

0:17:30.840 --> 0:17:37.000
<v Speaker 1>today that the Jets offered the ten tent selection, a

0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:40.600
<v Speaker 1>second round pick for In, a second round pick for

0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Deebo Samuel, and a fifth round which I know you

0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:46.800
<v Speaker 1>a fifth rounder. Just just your thoughts quickly how it

0:17:46.880 --> 0:17:50.240
<v Speaker 1>turned out, just from back from the beginning. I wasn't

0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:52.280
<v Speaker 1>a big fan of it. Yes, Deebo is great, Tyreek

0:17:52.400 --> 0:17:54.280
<v Speaker 1>is great. But when you talk about what you have

0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:56.359
<v Speaker 1>to give up, look what we would have been given up.

0:17:56.640 --> 0:17:59.399
<v Speaker 1>You given up talented players at each position that are

0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:00.840
<v Speaker 1>going to be able to help your team. Well, it

0:18:00.880 --> 0:18:03.119
<v Speaker 1>turns out, it turns out with Garrett, Well you're not

0:18:03.160 --> 0:18:06.480
<v Speaker 1>getting Garret cost and you gotta pay him twenty plus

0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:08.879
<v Speaker 1>a million dollars. You got you got four young players

0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:11.000
<v Speaker 1>who are going to contribute from day one and they

0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:12.840
<v Speaker 1>are gonna be here for a long time. All right,

0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:15.000
<v Speaker 1>So you can make the argument that Jets got the

0:18:15.040 --> 0:18:18.320
<v Speaker 1>top player in four position groups and a mad sauce

0:18:18.400 --> 0:18:23.320
<v Speaker 1>gardener Garrett Wilson, Jermaine Johnson, and then finally Briest Saw.

0:18:23.440 --> 0:18:26.760
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of Brieste Hall, let's get to Ethan Greenberg, who

0:18:26.800 --> 0:18:30.720
<v Speaker 1>talked to him after his second round selection, now joined

0:18:30.720 --> 0:18:33.159
<v Speaker 1>by the newest Jet running back, Breese Hall out of

0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:35.879
<v Speaker 1>Iowa State. Breese, just, what was your reaction when you

0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:37.639
<v Speaker 1>found out that the Jets were on the clock. Did

0:18:37.680 --> 0:18:39.720
<v Speaker 1>you have an inkling that maybe they traded up to

0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:43.480
<v Speaker 1>get you? Yeah, you know, I just for a while

0:18:43.480 --> 0:18:45.360
<v Speaker 1>it felt like it was taken forever. But then once

0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:48.320
<v Speaker 1>I got the call and I saw New Jersey, I

0:18:48.359 --> 0:18:50.040
<v Speaker 1>just knew. I was like, all right, this is this

0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:52.159
<v Speaker 1>is the moment. So it's just it's just been a blessing.

0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Did you have any feeling throughout the process that the

0:18:55.359 --> 0:18:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Jets liked what you brought to the table, Like are

0:18:57.280 --> 0:18:59.639
<v Speaker 1>you surprised that the Jets called you? Or are you thinking, like,

0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:01.800
<v Speaker 1>know what this is? This is where I was supposed

0:19:01.840 --> 0:19:05.040
<v Speaker 1>to go. Yeah, it didn't really surprise me though I

0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:07.240
<v Speaker 1>had i'm a formal meeting with him at the Combine

0:19:07.240 --> 0:19:09.480
<v Speaker 1>and some Zoom meetings, so um, I had already kind

0:19:09.480 --> 0:19:11.880
<v Speaker 1>of built a relationship with the coaches, so um, once

0:19:11.920 --> 0:19:14.399
<v Speaker 1>I got the call. It didn't really surprised. So what

0:19:14.440 --> 0:19:16.320
<v Speaker 1>do you bring to the table for Jets fans at

0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:18.760
<v Speaker 1>haven't watched you play before? How would you consider or

0:19:18.760 --> 0:19:21.640
<v Speaker 1>what would you consider the strength of your game? UM?

0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:23.920
<v Speaker 1>A three dome back who can you know, block, catch

0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:27.760
<v Speaker 1>and run. UM, a natural playmaker. UM, somebody who could

0:19:28.080 --> 0:19:30.760
<v Speaker 1>hit the home run, and you know, just somebody who

0:19:30.760 --> 0:19:33.640
<v Speaker 1>can do it all. What was what was the key

0:19:33.720 --> 0:19:36.840
<v Speaker 1>for you to be so consistent the past two years?

0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:40.480
<v Speaker 1>We're talking first team All American Big twelve Offensive Player

0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:42.919
<v Speaker 1>of the Year, stats off the charts. So what was

0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:44.920
<v Speaker 1>the key for you for that success over the past

0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:49.359
<v Speaker 1>two seasons? Religious focusing in on those small things. My

0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:51.800
<v Speaker 1>coach has always preached me that if I had focus

0:19:51.880 --> 0:19:54.040
<v Speaker 1>on the small things and my natural ability would take over.

0:19:54.119 --> 0:19:56.159
<v Speaker 1>So you know, for me, it was just staying on

0:19:56.200 --> 0:19:58.320
<v Speaker 1>my ps and ques and focusing on on the small things.

0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:00.960
<v Speaker 1>So with this Jets running backs room right now, Michael

0:20:01.000 --> 0:20:04.080
<v Speaker 1>Carter yourself. What do you know about Michael Carter and

0:20:04.080 --> 0:20:06.119
<v Speaker 1>what do you think that you add that maybe he

0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:08.359
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have it? What kind of combination do you bring

0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:11.280
<v Speaker 1>and put on the plate here? I watched him in

0:20:11.359 --> 0:20:13.600
<v Speaker 1>North Carolina so I kind of kind of feel how

0:20:13.640 --> 0:20:16.919
<v Speaker 1>he was him and Javonte Williams, and you know, just

0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:18.760
<v Speaker 1>knowing that he's a bruiser, but he can also make

0:20:18.800 --> 0:20:21.040
<v Speaker 1>you miss um and I really I really like his game.

0:20:21.080 --> 0:20:22.639
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I can compliment him a lot. So

0:20:22.920 --> 0:20:25.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm just excited to get in there and learn from him.

0:20:25.080 --> 0:20:27.680
<v Speaker 1>What about your game suits what the Jets do well

0:20:27.720 --> 0:20:30.879
<v Speaker 1>here on the pro level? I mean, I feel like

0:20:30.920 --> 0:20:33.320
<v Speaker 1>being at three down backsuits every offense, so you know,

0:20:33.400 --> 0:20:35.200
<v Speaker 1>for me, just being able to do everything at a

0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:38.840
<v Speaker 1>consistent level. All right, last question for you, Briest, what's

0:20:38.880 --> 0:20:41.359
<v Speaker 1>your message to Jets fans right now? Like, what type

0:20:41.359 --> 0:20:44.040
<v Speaker 1>of player? What type of person are they getting in you?

0:20:45.280 --> 0:20:47.000
<v Speaker 1>They got the best running back in his draft, and

0:20:47.000 --> 0:20:49.520
<v Speaker 1>they got Um, a person who's gonna be great on

0:21:34.240 --> 0:21:38.520
<v Speaker 1>here or not with freestall anymore? It is Friday morning?

0:21:39.160 --> 0:21:41.440
<v Speaker 1>What do you think about the draft? Three minutes Friday

0:21:42.000 --> 0:21:45.720
<v Speaker 1>before I ask you about that interview and your interaction

0:21:45.800 --> 0:21:48.439
<v Speaker 1>with Brees Saw, what do you think so far of

0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:50.800
<v Speaker 1>the Jets draft? How could you not be I mean,

0:21:51.160 --> 0:21:55.000
<v Speaker 1>how could you not be excited and all being realistic

0:21:55.320 --> 0:21:57.360
<v Speaker 1>or you know, I think that when you look at

0:21:57.600 --> 0:22:01.119
<v Speaker 1>the Jets draft, I think the ending on which analysts

0:22:01.200 --> 0:22:03.960
<v Speaker 1>you talk to, you could say the Jets drafted the

0:22:04.000 --> 0:22:09.000
<v Speaker 1>best cornerback available, the best wide receiver available, the best

0:22:09.160 --> 0:22:12.840
<v Speaker 1>running back available. And I'm sure there's some people that

0:22:12.960 --> 0:22:15.920
<v Speaker 1>believe that Jermaine Johnson was the top pass rusher, but

0:22:15.960 --> 0:22:18.800
<v Speaker 1>I feel like consensus is that he was a very

0:22:18.840 --> 0:22:21.919
<v Speaker 1>good pass rusher and a very good class So I

0:22:22.000 --> 0:22:24.919
<v Speaker 1>feel like, so far, how could you not be excited

0:22:24.920 --> 0:22:27.480
<v Speaker 1>because the Jets got better at a lot of positions.

0:22:27.480 --> 0:22:29.959
<v Speaker 1>And really, like what stands out to me more than

0:22:30.000 --> 0:22:33.400
<v Speaker 1>anything is if we just talked about the cornerbacks room.

0:22:33.600 --> 0:22:38.480
<v Speaker 1>That room ended last year with Bryce Hall and Brandon Echols,

0:22:39.119 --> 0:22:43.360
<v Speaker 1>the ad Sauce Gardner and Dj read Now that room

0:22:43.400 --> 0:22:46.159
<v Speaker 1>has really good depth, and I think that kind of

0:22:46.200 --> 0:22:49.959
<v Speaker 1>motto you could implement at other positions like tight end.

0:22:50.000 --> 0:22:52.960
<v Speaker 1>With the addition of Jeremy Ruckert and c j Uzama

0:22:53.040 --> 0:22:56.360
<v Speaker 1>and Tyler Conklin, and with running back at Bruce Hall

0:22:56.400 --> 0:22:58.960
<v Speaker 1>in there and Garrett Wilson as well, I just feel

0:22:59.000 --> 0:23:01.560
<v Speaker 1>like there's a lot of depth now starting to build

0:23:01.640 --> 0:23:04.479
<v Speaker 1>up at key positions. How cool a story is that

0:23:04.600 --> 0:23:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Jeremy Rucker grew up a Jets fan a Long Island.

0:23:08.280 --> 0:23:11.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure that's something that I feel like I empathized

0:23:11.720 --> 0:23:14.160
<v Speaker 1>with I mean, not the not the Long Island Park. Yeah,

0:23:14.200 --> 0:23:17.840
<v Speaker 1>empathized with this, Yeah, empathized. You know, well, I don't

0:23:17.840 --> 0:23:22.720
<v Speaker 1>know what the word is twelve twelve. You know, you know,

0:23:23.040 --> 0:23:26.560
<v Speaker 1>empathy for Jeremy Rocker, but you're gonna relate, Yeah, you

0:23:26.560 --> 0:23:28.879
<v Speaker 1>ever late growing up a Jet fan and not working

0:23:28.880 --> 0:23:32.159
<v Speaker 1>for maybe maybe empathy tough years, guys, kid, You know,

0:23:34.000 --> 0:23:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I want to know who his favorite jet was growing up,

0:23:36.040 --> 0:23:38.879
<v Speaker 1>because you know, I had favorite Jets growing up, and

0:23:39.080 --> 0:23:41.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm he's around the same age as me,

0:23:41.080 --> 0:23:43.159
<v Speaker 1>a little younger, but you know, I'm sure we have

0:23:43.240 --> 0:23:45.960
<v Speaker 1>some overlap. I'm sure he was a big Lee on Washington. Guy.

0:23:46.760 --> 0:23:49.680
<v Speaker 1>I just talked to Rucker and we're gonna hear from

0:23:49.760 --> 0:23:55.000
<v Speaker 1>him at the end of this podcast. But yeah, we

0:23:55.000 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 1>were thinking tight end all along for the Jets this offseason.

0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:00.840
<v Speaker 1>They had to address it right but after Freeancy, you

0:24:00.840 --> 0:24:04.240
<v Speaker 1>didn't know what was gonna happen because they got zj

0:24:04.440 --> 0:24:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Usama in here and they got Tyler Conklin in here,

0:24:08.000 --> 0:24:10.359
<v Speaker 1>and they kind of changed the dynamic of the position.

0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:14.240
<v Speaker 1>And we're kind of working our way, I guess from

0:24:14.280 --> 0:24:17.480
<v Speaker 1>back to front now because this is their latest pick.

0:24:17.600 --> 0:24:21.879
<v Speaker 1>But uh, interesting where they go to Ruckert here, because

0:24:21.880 --> 0:24:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't necessarily think tight end was a big need

0:24:25.240 --> 0:24:28.160
<v Speaker 1>at this point, especially in around three to your point.

0:24:28.200 --> 0:24:30.199
<v Speaker 1>But he sticks to the board here, Joe Douglas, and

0:24:30.200 --> 0:24:32.000
<v Speaker 1>that's what he's been doing all along. Yeah. I also

0:24:32.040 --> 0:24:34.960
<v Speaker 1>think that it's important to note that c j Uzama

0:24:35.080 --> 0:24:38.440
<v Speaker 1>and Tyler Conklin, we're both later round picks. They weren't

0:24:38.440 --> 0:24:40.720
<v Speaker 1>like first or second round picks. And that was something

0:24:40.760 --> 0:24:44.800
<v Speaker 1>that actually I noticed when the Jets signed both those guys,

0:24:44.840 --> 0:24:47.000
<v Speaker 1>where it's like maybe you have a guy, you develop

0:24:47.119 --> 0:24:49.840
<v Speaker 1>him for a couple of years, and then uh then

0:24:49.840 --> 0:24:51.680
<v Speaker 1>he comes on the scene. And you know, the Jets

0:24:51.680 --> 0:24:53.919
<v Speaker 1>love to run the ball, and Jeremy Ruckert's prowess is

0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:57.320
<v Speaker 1>definitely in run block. And you know, I have a

0:24:57.400 --> 0:25:00.440
<v Speaker 1>question for you. It's similar the running Backs room, Like

0:25:00.600 --> 0:25:03.240
<v Speaker 1>when you hear Bruce Hall is selected in the second round,

0:25:03.640 --> 0:25:06.480
<v Speaker 1>knowing what the Jets think about Michael Carter, Like are

0:25:06.480 --> 0:25:08.119
<v Speaker 1>you surprised at all? Are you like you know what,

0:25:08.400 --> 0:25:10.639
<v Speaker 1>like this is gonna be a one to punch him? Like,

0:25:10.720 --> 0:25:13.359
<v Speaker 1>let's roll. I think you want playmakers, So I guess

0:25:13.640 --> 0:25:16.920
<v Speaker 1>it makes sense that the Jets are following the script

0:25:16.960 --> 0:25:20.520
<v Speaker 1>that Joe Douglas said, one of the big things of

0:25:20.680 --> 0:25:24.359
<v Speaker 1>emphasis is to consider continue to accelerate the development of

0:25:24.400 --> 0:25:27.159
<v Speaker 1>his young quarterback. And he takes Garrett Wilson with the

0:25:27.280 --> 0:25:30.000
<v Speaker 1>number ten overall selection. He brings in, brings in Lake

0:25:30.040 --> 0:25:33.680
<v Speaker 1>and Tomlinson in free agency. He gets the two tight ends,

0:25:34.119 --> 0:25:38.199
<v Speaker 1>and then he comes back with another tight end. But

0:25:38.359 --> 0:25:43.480
<v Speaker 1>Bruce Hall. This is a crowded running backs room. And

0:25:43.760 --> 0:25:46.639
<v Speaker 1>but that speaks to the changing nature of the National

0:25:46.680 --> 0:25:49.520
<v Speaker 1>Football League to I think that what we've seen in

0:25:49.640 --> 0:25:53.719
<v Speaker 1>years past is listen, this offense is predicated on a

0:25:53.720 --> 0:25:57.720
<v Speaker 1>lot of guys touching the football. And Hall is a

0:25:57.760 --> 0:26:01.960
<v Speaker 1>guy who was so productive and Iowa State, and he's

0:26:02.000 --> 0:26:05.680
<v Speaker 1>fast and he's big, and you've got really good run

0:26:05.720 --> 0:26:08.560
<v Speaker 1>out of Michael Carter last year. Tevin Coleman is back

0:26:08.600 --> 0:26:12.400
<v Speaker 1>in the mix. Um he Robert Salom was talking about

0:26:12.440 --> 0:26:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Austin Walters. Austin Walter today, you Michael Pete, Ryan Stell

0:26:16.480 --> 0:26:18.959
<v Speaker 1>on the roster. Ty Johnson is another guy on this

0:26:19.040 --> 0:26:21.880
<v Speaker 1>offense who's a sub four four guy. I mean, if

0:26:21.920 --> 0:26:24.080
<v Speaker 1>we go up and down the roster, and I was

0:26:24.080 --> 0:26:26.000
<v Speaker 1>talking to back to Coleman about this a couple of

0:26:26.000 --> 0:26:31.320
<v Speaker 1>minutes before you got on, was this roster has really

0:26:31.400 --> 0:26:34.400
<v Speaker 1>changed in terms of speed dynamic. Yeah, I definitely agree

0:26:34.440 --> 0:26:36.960
<v Speaker 1>with that, and with the running backs in particular. I

0:26:37.040 --> 0:26:40.600
<v Speaker 1>just feel like if that room is fully healthy, but

0:26:40.640 --> 0:26:42.800
<v Speaker 1>at the end of training camp, a good player is

0:26:42.880 --> 0:26:44.720
<v Speaker 1>not gonna make the team. And that just speaks to

0:26:44.760 --> 0:26:47.119
<v Speaker 1>the depth at the position. What stands out to me

0:26:47.119 --> 0:26:49.560
<v Speaker 1>about Breece Hall. You look at you know, you look

0:26:49.600 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 1>at his resume. You know, he's a consensus First team

0:26:52.760 --> 0:26:55.159
<v Speaker 1>All American Backs back years, Big twelve Offensive Player of

0:26:55.200 --> 0:26:58.919
<v Speaker 1>the Year. Stands out to me. FBS record rushing touchdown

0:26:59.200 --> 0:27:01.919
<v Speaker 1>in twenty more consecutive games. The guy finds the end

0:27:02.000 --> 0:27:05.960
<v Speaker 1>zone had fifty rush touchdowns. That was and and he

0:27:06.000 --> 0:27:09.119
<v Speaker 1>had eleven school records. And you know, and I know

0:27:09.200 --> 0:27:11.080
<v Speaker 1>Beck's not sitting right here like he was a couple

0:27:11.080 --> 0:27:13.360
<v Speaker 1>of minutes ago, and he loves the briest Hall pick,

0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:16.480
<v Speaker 1>but he picked him in our mock drafts. Yeah, you know,

0:27:16.560 --> 0:27:18.200
<v Speaker 1>he's got a big I was a part of that.

0:27:18.600 --> 0:27:19.960
<v Speaker 1>He was the one that put him on the table,

0:27:20.080 --> 0:27:23.600
<v Speaker 1>but you know I allowed him to do it. Yeah,

0:27:22.080 --> 0:27:26.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm about Anthony Coach Beck. We should call him the

0:27:26.520 --> 0:27:30.080
<v Speaker 1>head coach in the XFL. Great news for him. I

0:27:30.080 --> 0:27:33.159
<v Speaker 1>feel like, you know, I feel like every time I

0:27:33.200 --> 0:27:35.680
<v Speaker 1>think about who the Jets drafted, and as you know,

0:27:35.720 --> 0:27:37.879
<v Speaker 1>it starts like replaying in my mind because you know,

0:27:37.960 --> 0:27:41.359
<v Speaker 1>we're so busy. Right after the pick, I'm thinking in

0:27:41.359 --> 0:27:46.480
<v Speaker 1>my mind like, wow, like this Steve really got instantly better.

0:27:46.560 --> 0:27:49.280
<v Speaker 1>And you know, I especially after free agency and when

0:27:49.280 --> 0:27:51.200
<v Speaker 1>they were pumped about what they got done in free

0:27:51.200 --> 0:27:54.440
<v Speaker 1>agency especially, you know, to me, I even go one

0:27:54.480 --> 0:27:56.920
<v Speaker 1>step further. You think about the guys who finished the

0:27:56.960 --> 0:28:02.080
<v Speaker 1>season hurt, like Corey Davis, specifically Carl Lawson, like fully

0:28:02.080 --> 0:28:05.600
<v Speaker 1>healthy players that the Jets added last year in free agency,

0:28:05.680 --> 0:28:08.440
<v Speaker 1>like Davis and Lawson. Those are two, like two new

0:28:08.520 --> 0:28:13.000
<v Speaker 1>starters in two I know Corey Davis played almost a

0:28:13.080 --> 0:28:15.439
<v Speaker 1>full season or a big chunk of it, but he

0:28:15.480 --> 0:28:17.359
<v Speaker 1>was on pace for a thousand yards. I just feel

0:28:17.400 --> 0:28:19.280
<v Speaker 1>like the blueprint is are and I know you don't

0:28:19.280 --> 0:28:22.720
<v Speaker 1>win the draft in April, right these players have to

0:28:22.760 --> 0:28:27.760
<v Speaker 1>develop in whatever, but I feel like this draft has

0:28:28.040 --> 0:28:30.960
<v Speaker 1>the blueprint to have an early return similar to the

0:28:30.960 --> 0:28:34.160
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and we're not even in Day three yet

0:28:34.400 --> 0:28:36.520
<v Speaker 1>we're not even day three, and the Jets right now

0:28:36.880 --> 0:28:39.000
<v Speaker 1>just scheduled to have two picks, so it could be

0:28:39.040 --> 0:28:42.240
<v Speaker 1>an early afternoon for you for you to Saturday afternoon,

0:28:42.280 --> 0:28:44.440
<v Speaker 1>no doubt about it. Okay, let me flip the script

0:28:44.520 --> 0:28:46.760
<v Speaker 1>on you, because this is something that over the years

0:28:46.800 --> 0:28:49.960
<v Speaker 1>you would do if I was in that seat and

0:28:50.000 --> 0:28:55.520
<v Speaker 1>you were in this seat once your most favorite pick

0:28:55.600 --> 0:28:58.959
<v Speaker 1>after two days. Yeah, that's a great question for the Jets.

0:28:59.800 --> 0:29:07.720
<v Speaker 1>And that's not saying he disliked, because you're you're telling us, well,

0:29:08.200 --> 0:29:11.440
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I'm slightly biased to Jermaine Johnson because

0:29:11.520 --> 0:29:14.800
<v Speaker 1>we were in Mobile and I remember walking by. He

0:29:14.840 --> 0:29:16.200
<v Speaker 1>was not on the Jets team. He was on the

0:29:16.200 --> 0:29:18.720
<v Speaker 1>other team, the Lions team, the American team, and I

0:29:18.760 --> 0:29:22.080
<v Speaker 1>remember walking by not knowing really who he was, and

0:29:22.120 --> 0:29:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, oh wow, like who's this dude because he

0:29:24.080 --> 0:29:27.280
<v Speaker 1>towered over me, And yeah, I think he's just very impressive.

0:29:27.600 --> 0:29:30.080
<v Speaker 1>And then fast forward to the combine. Well, first of all,

0:29:30.080 --> 0:29:32.920
<v Speaker 1>he had a fantastic week that added to it. Then

0:29:32.960 --> 0:29:34.600
<v Speaker 1>you go to the combine. I remember listening to his

0:29:34.600 --> 0:29:37.640
<v Speaker 1>press conference and I'm like, who's this guy? You know,

0:29:37.720 --> 0:29:41.440
<v Speaker 1>like he just has a really calm, captivating way about him,

0:29:41.480 --> 0:29:45.080
<v Speaker 1>like very comfortable in his own skin, very confident, I mean,

0:29:45.240 --> 0:29:47.080
<v Speaker 1>but he was on the other side of the studio.

0:29:47.120 --> 0:29:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I love the the outfit choice, and he had an

0:29:49.800 --> 0:29:54.960
<v Speaker 1>outfit change midday. Yeah, in the press conference. Well when

0:29:55.000 --> 0:29:57.280
<v Speaker 1>when you did the one on one, he was wearing

0:29:57.280 --> 0:29:59.920
<v Speaker 1>the black and white or the black and yellow like

0:30:00.040 --> 0:30:04.040
<v Speaker 1>the bumblebee colored floral print. Then he had the Florida

0:30:04.040 --> 0:30:08.440
<v Speaker 1>States seminal like red gold white print suit for the

0:30:08.480 --> 0:30:11.959
<v Speaker 1>press conference. You know, Hey, to me, it's Jermaine Johnson.

0:30:12.000 --> 0:30:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Also when you factor in just what this defensive front

0:30:16.080 --> 0:30:19.320
<v Speaker 1>wants to do, and you know that opposite Carl Lawson

0:30:19.640 --> 0:30:22.000
<v Speaker 1>could be a guy like Jermaine Johnson, with John Franklin

0:30:22.000 --> 0:30:25.360
<v Speaker 1>Myers and Jacob Martin also and everyone else on the roster,

0:30:25.440 --> 0:30:28.080
<v Speaker 1>you add Vinny Curry. To me, I think that's like

0:30:28.120 --> 0:30:31.080
<v Speaker 1>a it's a I don't want to say game changing piece,

0:30:31.120 --> 0:30:33.240
<v Speaker 1>but it definitely changes the dynamics of what you want

0:30:33.240 --> 0:30:35.760
<v Speaker 1>to do upfront because we saw a lot of times

0:30:35.880 --> 0:30:39.560
<v Speaker 1>last year where four guys in, four guys out, and

0:30:39.600 --> 0:30:41.240
<v Speaker 1>so this just adds to that and it allows you

0:30:41.280 --> 0:30:44.400
<v Speaker 1>to have two fresh units where the drop off of

0:30:44.440 --> 0:30:48.160
<v Speaker 1>talent isn't maybe what it was last year. You have

0:30:48.240 --> 0:30:51.800
<v Speaker 1>a favorite though, well, I just want to say this

0:30:52.000 --> 0:30:56.120
<v Speaker 1>first is that could be a hillacious pass rushing unit

0:30:56.240 --> 0:31:02.160
<v Speaker 1>in sub packages. Because Carl Lawson knock on class here

0:31:02.560 --> 0:31:07.040
<v Speaker 1>he comes back. He was so outstanding during training camp.

0:31:07.160 --> 0:31:08.960
<v Speaker 1>We were so excited to see what he was going

0:31:09.000 --> 0:31:12.080
<v Speaker 1>to do on the field, just from a curiosity standpoint,

0:31:12.120 --> 0:31:14.960
<v Speaker 1>because this was the perfect system for him. I am

0:31:14.960 --> 0:31:17.520
<v Speaker 1>curious to see what happened in the middle though. John Yea,

0:31:17.920 --> 0:31:21.760
<v Speaker 1>John Franklin Wiers we love the Jets love his versatility.

0:31:22.600 --> 0:31:26.320
<v Speaker 1>M guy lineup outside early and then in the subpack

0:31:26.440 --> 0:31:29.480
<v Speaker 1>and just can move inside. Quinn and Williams one of

0:31:29.480 --> 0:31:33.440
<v Speaker 1>the most talented defensive tackles, young defensive tackles and football

0:31:33.520 --> 0:31:36.800
<v Speaker 1>Sheldon Rankings still here. Remember the one guy that I

0:31:36.920 --> 0:31:40.080
<v Speaker 1>forgot about earlier with Solomon Thomas. This is a former

0:31:40.120 --> 0:31:42.960
<v Speaker 1>top five pick who can give you some rush on

0:31:43.000 --> 0:31:45.959
<v Speaker 1>the interior as well, who's familiar with the solid system

0:31:46.440 --> 0:31:49.680
<v Speaker 1>rankings um Nathan Sheppard back in the mix. I wouldn't

0:31:49.720 --> 0:31:52.520
<v Speaker 1>be surprised actually not to get two out of myself

0:31:53.120 --> 0:31:55.320
<v Speaker 1>on Day three of the draft of the Jets at

0:31:55.440 --> 0:31:59.960
<v Speaker 1>either a big defensive tackle, if you weren't surprised if

0:32:00.040 --> 0:32:02.880
<v Speaker 1>they do or if they don't. If if they don't,

0:32:03.800 --> 0:32:07.160
<v Speaker 1>and then if they don't do it in the draft,

0:32:07.240 --> 0:32:10.040
<v Speaker 1>then priority free agents and drafted free agents. But as

0:32:10.080 --> 0:32:13.120
<v Speaker 1>far as well, there's also one more guy to Jonathan Marshall,

0:32:14.000 --> 0:32:17.320
<v Speaker 1>and you talked about a guy with like freaky traits.

0:32:16.880 --> 0:32:19.479
<v Speaker 1>That's a good point, and we'll have to see what

0:32:19.560 --> 0:32:23.960
<v Speaker 1>he looks like in the second year. But um favorite pick.

0:32:27.400 --> 0:32:32.400
<v Speaker 1>I like sauce just because he just says the New

0:32:32.520 --> 0:32:34.600
<v Speaker 1>York field. You grew up in New York. I've been

0:32:34.640 --> 0:32:37.320
<v Speaker 1>working here for a long time. He's just he's a

0:32:37.480 --> 0:32:40.720
<v Speaker 1>kid who's gonna get after you, get in your face.

0:32:41.080 --> 0:32:43.880
<v Speaker 1>That's like a New York mentality. But he also is

0:32:44.160 --> 0:32:49.040
<v Speaker 1>somebody's gonna really acclimate himself well inside the locker we're on,

0:32:49.120 --> 0:32:52.520
<v Speaker 1>he's talking about being a sponge. He also was a

0:32:52.560 --> 0:32:56.240
<v Speaker 1>person who was doubted, he wasn't heavily recruited. He grew

0:32:56.600 --> 0:32:59.360
<v Speaker 1>he was part of that Cincinnati program. Who would have

0:32:59.360 --> 0:33:01.720
<v Speaker 1>ever thought three years ago that saw a mod saw

0:33:01.840 --> 0:33:04.520
<v Speaker 1>his gardener gona be the number four overall pick in

0:33:04.560 --> 0:33:07.800
<v Speaker 1>the draft. And then you think about the Jets they

0:33:07.880 --> 0:33:10.520
<v Speaker 1>had one of the greatest cornerbacks in the history of

0:33:10.560 --> 0:33:13.680
<v Speaker 1>the league. Guys gonna be Pro Football Hall of Famer

0:33:14.880 --> 0:33:18.720
<v Speaker 1>next year into Roll Reeves. So there's some cool connections there.

0:33:18.800 --> 0:33:20.680
<v Speaker 1>So I guess that one stands out to me. How

0:33:20.680 --> 0:33:25.680
<v Speaker 1>about more surprising pick for you? I think my most

0:33:25.680 --> 0:33:30.040
<v Speaker 1>surprising pick would come from day two. Really yeah, with

0:33:30.400 --> 0:33:35.040
<v Speaker 1>with Hall or Rucker being the two options, and to me,

0:33:35.760 --> 0:33:39.920
<v Speaker 1>to me, it's kind of a push um only because

0:33:40.200 --> 0:33:43.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, am I surprised, No, I'm not surprised. But

0:33:44.520 --> 0:33:49.360
<v Speaker 1>with to me, like cornerback, totally understand wide receiver at

0:33:49.360 --> 0:33:51.640
<v Speaker 1>tennon Garrett Wilson. You knew the Jets were in in

0:33:51.680 --> 0:33:53.920
<v Speaker 1>the veteran market when they tried to get Tyreek Hill.

0:33:54.000 --> 0:33:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Didn't surprise me that they were going after him, meaning

0:33:56.680 --> 0:34:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Wilson at ten. Then you talk about Johnson edge rusher

0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:06.640
<v Speaker 1>not surprising at a quarterback right check check check, right,

0:34:06.680 --> 0:34:08.239
<v Speaker 1>So that that leads me with the running backs in

0:34:08.280 --> 0:34:11.520
<v Speaker 1>the tight ends, and to me, I'd almost lean tight

0:34:11.640 --> 0:34:15.120
<v Speaker 1>ends because of the two additions in free agency and

0:34:15.320 --> 0:34:19.239
<v Speaker 1>use Zama and Conklin. It doesn't surprise like if you

0:34:19.320 --> 0:34:21.120
<v Speaker 1>told me the Jets draft at a tight end I

0:34:21.120 --> 0:34:23.239
<v Speaker 1>would not have been surprised if you told me it

0:34:23.280 --> 0:34:25.640
<v Speaker 1>was round six, I would have been like, yeah, okay,

0:34:25.719 --> 0:34:27.560
<v Speaker 1>or around five. Because the Jets don't have a six

0:34:27.640 --> 0:34:30.280
<v Speaker 1>round pick. They had to five until they traded them away.

0:34:30.719 --> 0:34:32.480
<v Speaker 1>It was fourth round. I'm like, Okay, I get it.

0:34:32.680 --> 0:34:34.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying that I'm surprised in the third round.

0:34:35.000 --> 0:34:37.000
<v Speaker 1>It's just like, oh, okay, maybe that's a bit of

0:34:37.000 --> 0:34:39.920
<v Speaker 1>a luxury pick, not that it's a bad pick. And

0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:43.680
<v Speaker 1>with Breece Hall, I know, I feel like the vibe

0:34:44.000 --> 0:34:46.360
<v Speaker 1>that we get from Robert Sala and Joe Douglas as

0:34:46.400 --> 0:34:48.719
<v Speaker 1>they love Michael Carter. Now that doesn't mean that you

0:34:48.760 --> 0:34:50.960
<v Speaker 1>don't want to add to that room. I always felt

0:34:50.960 --> 0:34:52.960
<v Speaker 1>like there was gonna be another guy. But when you

0:34:52.960 --> 0:34:55.440
<v Speaker 1>look at San Francisco and that's really what we have

0:34:55.600 --> 0:34:59.080
<v Speaker 1>to go on compared to last year, Like Elijah Mitchell's

0:34:59.080 --> 0:35:01.520
<v Speaker 1>a sixth round pick, so I'm thinking, oh, maybe there's

0:35:01.520 --> 0:35:04.719
<v Speaker 1>like a Day three guy that can plug and play

0:35:04.800 --> 0:35:06.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of like Michael Carter. Instead it's Day two, it's

0:35:06.920 --> 0:35:09.840
<v Speaker 1>Breest Hall, and you know not I'm a fan of

0:35:09.840 --> 0:35:12.840
<v Speaker 1>the pick. I just I wouldn't say like I wouldn't

0:35:12.840 --> 0:35:14.440
<v Speaker 1>have put my money on that if I had the

0:35:14.440 --> 0:35:18.760
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to, and it ended up being Breest Hall. Yeah,

0:35:18.920 --> 0:35:20.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it's fair, and I think you'd go either

0:35:20.719 --> 0:35:24.360
<v Speaker 1>way as far as that second day. But it just

0:35:24.400 --> 0:35:26.960
<v Speaker 1>speaks to what Douglas is doing here is just sticking

0:35:26.960 --> 0:35:30.799
<v Speaker 1>to the board, especially with that Rutgerd pick, because all

0:35:30.920 --> 0:35:34.839
<v Speaker 1>you can say, hey, listen, there's another playmaker, another play

0:35:35.400 --> 0:35:39.799
<v Speaker 1>And while Ruckert didn't have the opportunity to catch as

0:35:39.840 --> 0:35:42.840
<v Speaker 1>many balls as he would have if he wants somewhere

0:35:42.880 --> 0:35:45.400
<v Speaker 1>or else. Shoot, I mean you almost feel bad for

0:35:45.480 --> 0:35:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Jeremy Ruckert, not because he's not a talented player, not

0:35:49.320 --> 0:35:52.120
<v Speaker 1>because he's an NFL player now, but just on a

0:35:52.239 --> 0:35:55.680
<v Speaker 1>college level, it's like that speaks to being a team

0:35:55.719 --> 0:35:58.759
<v Speaker 1>oriented guy. Because we talked about all these guys going

0:35:58.760 --> 0:36:02.440
<v Speaker 1>in the transfer portal. If if Rucker was all about himself,

0:36:02.480 --> 0:36:06.440
<v Speaker 1>he'd be like, Okay, so I got Garrett Wilson here,

0:36:06.520 --> 0:36:11.440
<v Speaker 1>I got Crystal lave Hair, Jamison Williams here. No, I'm

0:36:11.480 --> 0:36:13.160
<v Speaker 1>never gonna get the balls, so I'm just gonna go

0:36:13.200 --> 0:36:15.799
<v Speaker 1>somewhere else. But he stuck it out and now he's

0:36:15.800 --> 0:36:19.560
<v Speaker 1>a third round pick because he's a complete tight end

0:36:20.160 --> 0:36:23.719
<v Speaker 1>in terms of yes, known first blocking progress more, but

0:36:23.840 --> 0:36:27.080
<v Speaker 1>also and had the opportunity to really catch a lot

0:36:27.120 --> 0:36:29.080
<v Speaker 1>of balls on the collegient level. And that's one thing

0:36:29.120 --> 0:36:31.080
<v Speaker 1>that really helped him and Mobile when we were down

0:36:31.080 --> 0:36:33.640
<v Speaker 1>there is that he was able to run those routes

0:36:33.840 --> 0:36:36.319
<v Speaker 1>in showcase pretty good hand. It's also a great I

0:36:36.360 --> 0:36:39.719
<v Speaker 1>feel like it's a great situation for him when like

0:36:39.800 --> 0:36:42.839
<v Speaker 1>the expectations not like to come in and catch fifty balls,

0:36:42.880 --> 0:36:45.799
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, I feel like the expectation for him is

0:36:45.880 --> 0:36:48.160
<v Speaker 1>like you come in, you knock people off the line

0:36:48.200 --> 0:36:50.319
<v Speaker 1>of scrimmage, and you learn from the two guys in

0:36:50.360 --> 0:36:52.600
<v Speaker 1>front of you, or whoever's in front of whoever else

0:36:52.640 --> 0:36:54.279
<v Speaker 1>is in the room. The two new additions to be

0:36:54.280 --> 0:36:58.120
<v Speaker 1>in particular like Usama Conklin both Day three picks who

0:36:58.120 --> 0:37:02.120
<v Speaker 1>have groomed themselves into stars earning second contracts, and then

0:37:02.160 --> 0:37:05.759
<v Speaker 1>maybe you know down the road, you know in three

0:37:06.200 --> 0:37:10.200
<v Speaker 1>even wouldn't surprise me if you know, let's say, injury

0:37:10.280 --> 0:37:12.719
<v Speaker 1>led to opportunity for Jeremy Ruckert if he stepped in

0:37:12.760 --> 0:37:16.080
<v Speaker 1>and he was a productive pro Dame Bruegler actually wrote

0:37:16.880 --> 0:37:19.000
<v Speaker 1>when we wrote I wrote an article about five players

0:37:19.040 --> 0:37:23.839
<v Speaker 1>to watch in Mobile, and Dane Bruegler wrote in it,

0:37:23.920 --> 0:37:26.720
<v Speaker 1>I have the article pulled up. I think Jeremy Ruckert

0:37:26.800 --> 0:37:29.280
<v Speaker 1>will be a better pro than he was in college.

0:37:29.280 --> 0:37:31.719
<v Speaker 1>It all comes down opportunity and says it all. So

0:37:32.239 --> 0:37:35.000
<v Speaker 1>that says it all right there. Um, by the way,

0:37:35.239 --> 0:37:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Perry and Winfrey was he selected, he was not, he is,

0:37:38.800 --> 0:37:41.520
<v Speaker 1>he is available, he is the Senior bowllet for those

0:37:41.520 --> 0:37:44.440
<v Speaker 1>who don't know, Senior Bowl m v P played in

0:37:44.520 --> 0:37:47.799
<v Speaker 1>Oklahoma defensive tackle, which is you know, I would say

0:37:47.920 --> 0:37:54.799
<v Speaker 1>right now a quote unquote need for the Jets. Yeah, absolutely,

0:37:54.840 --> 0:37:58.480
<v Speaker 1>me too, especially when you consider last year Sherwood, Jamie

0:37:58.480 --> 0:38:00.759
<v Speaker 1>Sherwin and Homas and nozzwal Dean both selected on Day

0:38:00.760 --> 0:38:04.200
<v Speaker 1>three as well. So I think that's definitely something to watch.

0:38:04.280 --> 0:38:07.040
<v Speaker 1>And don't just watch the linebacker position. With that being said,

0:38:07.080 --> 0:38:10.880
<v Speaker 1>because those guys were quote unquote college safetyes have played

0:38:11.120 --> 0:38:14.120
<v Speaker 1>down and there in the box. So don't be surprised

0:38:14.200 --> 0:38:18.560
<v Speaker 1>if the Jets find somebody of similar ilk here our

0:38:18.600 --> 0:38:22.480
<v Speaker 1>bruiser saying Darren Beaver's also available. I'm pretty sure he

0:38:22.600 --> 0:38:26.120
<v Speaker 1>was a mobile guy as well. Um, Daniel fala Lele

0:38:26.760 --> 0:38:32.000
<v Speaker 1>offensive tackle, Minnesota. I'm getting a lot of a lot

0:38:32.000 --> 0:38:35.120
<v Speaker 1>of books. We're going to the mobile guys like the

0:38:35.120 --> 0:38:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Minnesota kids like four pounds, yeah, it's like seven ft seven,

0:38:40.480 --> 0:38:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah he is. How about the one guy that that

0:38:43.760 --> 0:38:50.120
<v Speaker 1>I do think is available, Brian Asamoa, Oklahoma, Oklahoma linebacker,

0:38:51.120 --> 0:38:54.600
<v Speaker 1>also senior ball guy. No, I think he got selected.

0:38:55.600 --> 0:38:58.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm good. Let's put this up right now. Well, a

0:38:58.719 --> 0:39:01.720
<v Speaker 1>lot of balls in the air right now, Oh, Minnesota Vikings.

0:39:01.719 --> 0:39:05.120
<v Speaker 1>There you go. But that that is a good that's

0:39:05.160 --> 0:39:07.279
<v Speaker 1>a good signal that it's time for us to sign off.

0:39:07.320 --> 0:39:11.600
<v Speaker 1>It's nice too, but it's really morning three here, but

0:39:11.760 --> 0:39:16.360
<v Speaker 1>we'll be back to close it up with another podcast tomorrow,

0:39:16.560 --> 0:39:19.080
<v Speaker 1>Day three. But the New York Jets so far quite

0:39:19.120 --> 0:39:23.040
<v Speaker 1>a hall early in two thousand two draft Sauce Gardner,

0:39:23.640 --> 0:39:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Garrett Wilson, Jermaine Johnson, Briest Hall, and then finally Jeremy Rucker.

0:39:31.200 --> 0:39:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Two picks to go unless Trader Joe is on the

0:39:33.640 --> 0:39:37.200
<v Speaker 1>move again. Right, hey, Green, thanks for stopping by. We're

0:39:37.200 --> 0:39:42.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna close upon right now with some words from Jeremy Rucker. Jeremy,

0:39:42.239 --> 0:39:45.640
<v Speaker 1>it seems like you're in a lively atmosphere right now.

0:39:45.800 --> 0:39:48.640
<v Speaker 1>Paint the picture. What's going on you just got drafted

0:39:48.640 --> 0:39:52.680
<v Speaker 1>by the New York Jets. I can't even explain it

0:39:52.760 --> 0:39:55.799
<v Speaker 1>to you. I got, like everybody here grew but just man,

0:39:55.880 --> 0:39:58.279
<v Speaker 1>I grew up, but just found I'm so excited. I

0:39:58.320 --> 0:39:59.640
<v Speaker 1>can't wait to just get there and be a part

0:39:59.680 --> 0:40:01.839
<v Speaker 1>of it, to worry right the way. I'm excited. So

0:40:02.520 --> 0:40:06.880
<v Speaker 1>can you tell me that moment when you were selected?

0:40:07.120 --> 0:40:09.960
<v Speaker 1>What was the atmosphere like as far as the people

0:40:10.000 --> 0:40:17.000
<v Speaker 1>around you. I was dead silent um kind of everybody's nervous.

0:40:17.000 --> 0:40:19.520
<v Speaker 1>I was getting a little nervous um kind of where

0:40:19.560 --> 0:40:21.239
<v Speaker 1>I was expected to go and everything like that. But

0:40:21.280 --> 0:40:22.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I just like to it. It's like close

0:40:22.800 --> 0:40:25.560
<v Speaker 1>and once that phone right, everybody, you can hear a

0:40:25.600 --> 0:40:28.120
<v Speaker 1>pinshop and then once I know it's my brother to

0:40:28.160 --> 0:40:34.000
<v Speaker 1>grabbed his hat, it erupted. Uh Jets chance going off right? Um.

0:40:34.040 --> 0:40:36.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean everybody here's ecstatic. I don't know who's more

0:40:36.120 --> 0:40:38.759
<v Speaker 1>excited me now, but it's a dream come true. I want.

0:40:38.800 --> 0:40:40.200
<v Speaker 1>I grew up going to games, I grew up going

0:40:40.280 --> 0:40:42.719
<v Speaker 1>to training camp, I do the ball being a Jets fan.

0:40:42.800 --> 0:40:45.839
<v Speaker 1>So I'm just just like, how valuable was that experience

0:40:45.880 --> 0:40:48.720
<v Speaker 1>in January when you got coached up by the Jets,

0:40:48.800 --> 0:40:52.520
<v Speaker 1>Dott and Mobile Alabama's Senior Bowl. I mean, I thought

0:40:52.560 --> 0:40:55.000
<v Speaker 1>it was about the great relationship and all those guys

0:40:55.840 --> 0:40:57.359
<v Speaker 1>coach me and I are like I thought, I really

0:40:57.400 --> 0:40:59.320
<v Speaker 1>tried going in and soaking up as much as I know.

0:40:59.560 --> 0:41:03.200
<v Speaker 1>And he's got um coach in a way where it's

0:41:03.280 --> 0:41:05.560
<v Speaker 1>very easy to understand, and it's and I think that

0:41:05.680 --> 0:41:07.520
<v Speaker 1>that the whole staff I got. I gotta fund I

0:41:07.560 --> 0:41:09.040
<v Speaker 1>got a chance to be a part of that room

0:41:09.120 --> 0:41:11.120
<v Speaker 1>for a week and and soak it all in and

0:41:11.200 --> 0:41:12.560
<v Speaker 1>be there. I move that gene. But I had as

0:41:12.560 --> 0:41:14.120
<v Speaker 1>a Kadon's for just that week, and now that I'm

0:41:14.120 --> 0:41:17.040
<v Speaker 1>living it down, it's just it's hard to put in words. Outside, Hey,

0:41:17.080 --> 0:41:18.840
<v Speaker 1>are you gonna be able to sleep tonight? It's a

0:41:18.880 --> 0:41:22.319
<v Speaker 1>pretty loud crowd and a lot to celebrate. I had

0:41:22.360 --> 0:41:24.080
<v Speaker 1>to tell him to be quiet. This is nothing compared

0:41:24.080 --> 0:41:26.319
<v Speaker 1>to a couple of minutes ago. I'm well, I'm gonna

0:41:26.360 --> 0:41:29.319
<v Speaker 1>celebrate it. I'm gonna I'm gonna enjoy the moment. I'm

0:41:29.320 --> 0:41:31.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to lock my imn have to lock myself

0:41:31.040 --> 0:41:34.239
<v Speaker 1>in the room, in an inside room. Everybody's gonna be

0:41:34.280 --> 0:41:37.680
<v Speaker 1>screaming bargaining. But I mean, like I said before, this

0:41:37.800 --> 0:41:40.200
<v Speaker 1>just this just close to how I closed my support system.

0:41:40.200 --> 0:41:41.960
<v Speaker 1>It's how close my family's and how we grew up

0:41:42.000 --> 0:41:51.560
<v Speaker 1>being being just living. Hey, thanks, appreciate your time. Congratulations Yeah,
