We'll start off 14 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: just you know, we we've broken down all the positions. 15 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: We've given you some of the guys that we like 16 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: at the top of those positions, some guys that we 17 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: think the Patriots might be interested in, and some guys 18 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: maybe that would be candidates to go later on Day two, 19 00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: day three in the draft. But I want to get 20 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: as as normal. I'm joined by Matise Bauman and Mike 21 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 1: Do So I want to get your opinions. Tease I'll 22 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: start with you just give me your positions of need 23 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: in order. What you think should be the top of 24 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: the priority list for the Patriots. Well, it's funny because 25 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: every single position we did, I feel like there was 26 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: always a prospect like, oh, he's a good fit, Like 27 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: we really need somebody there. But I think it's really cornerback, edge, 28 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: and receiver. You know, those are the three. Yeah, and 29 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: I'd be fine with any of those being picked in 30 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: the top one and two rounds. Yeah. I mean, I 31 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: think you can make an argument for tackle, you know, 32 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: I mean, certainly wide receiver, certainly cornerback. When you see 33 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: who departed, they were lacking depth there last year. Surprise, 34 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: they never drafted anybody last season. Felt like this was coming. 35 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: Seaun Wade they did bring in later in the process. 36 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: Who knows, you know what kind of potential he has. 37 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: But I agree, I think edge, edge, and cornerback defense. 38 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: You know, think a lot of tension has been played 39 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: to the linebacker position, and you know they've got a 40 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: lot of guys there. I think that's that's the thing 41 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: of you know, we talk about Devin Lloyd, Nakobe, Dean, guys. 42 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: It would be available toward the end of that first round. 43 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: But how do they feel about the guys that you know, 44 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: Ray Kua McMillan last year was you know, they liked 45 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: him early in camp, he towards ACL they resigned him. 46 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: But you know he's coming off an a CL injury. 47 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 1: Cameron mcgron drafted him last year. He didn't play after 48 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: because of his a cl two years ago. So he's, 49 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: you know, essentially a rookie this year. Brought in mac Wilson, 50 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: brought back Jawan Bentley, Harvey Longie, Javadi Tavai, Tarez Hall. 51 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: He was missing all last year. So a lot of questions, 52 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: a lot of guys, but a lot of questions they're 53 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: on the inside. How do they truly feel do they 54 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: want to give those guys a chance? They want to 55 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,119 Speaker 1: give the other linebackers on the edge, like Ooja Jennings Perkins. 56 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: Did those guys get a chance to line up alongside 57 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: Matthew Judeon? So I think, for me defense, I want 58 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: to come out of this draft feeling like, hey, we 59 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: got a couple of guys that can come in and 60 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: play immediately, make an impact, maybe have a you know, 61 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: some kind of physical presence to them that re establishes 62 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 1: this patriot's defense and gives them a new foundations as 63 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: they move forward to compliment Matt Jones and these Yeah, 64 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that that corner would be my 65 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: my one spot that I would say above all the others. 66 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: But I totally agree with you guys and the way 67 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: you talked about No, Mike, you know, gravitates toward the 68 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: edge and in tease, you're you're not wrong when you 69 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: talk about the linebackers and the receivers, and and we 70 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,679 Speaker 1: can't leave out the offensive line either. Now, I think 71 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,399 Speaker 1: a lot will depend at twenty one is to how 72 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: it's so unpredictable. It's I know it's always unpredictable, but 73 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: it seems this year there's less certainty. Even with the 74 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: very first pick. You know, now you know it's it's Walker, 75 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: and it had been Hudginson, you know, before you know 76 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: the whole process started, it was Thibodeau. So who knows, 77 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: you know, who's going to end up going at the 78 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: top of the draft, and who knows if any quarterbacks 79 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: end up throwing a monkey wrench into those plans. So 80 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: I think the challenge for Bill Belichick is to sort 81 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: of adapt to the way the board unfolds and then 82 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: figure it out, because I think it's easy to say, 83 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: like Mike said, well you gotta go defense, you got 84 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: to fix this defense. But I think the defense, I 85 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: think there's a couple of defenses in the league that 86 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: can go out and stop and be really competitive with 87 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: any offense. I think they need to to improve the 88 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: offense to get it to a point where they can 89 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: beat these teams, say, you know, thirty four or twenty eight, 90 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: which is again that they couldn't win last year. I 91 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: think they were, you know, over the season and games 92 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: allowing twenty five or more points, so that that needs 93 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: to change. You can't just rely on your defense holding 94 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: you you know, under twenty and you know, finding your 95 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: way to win. So I understand Mike's point about defense. 96 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: I would tend to agree that I think that the 97 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: bigger needs are on defense, but it's going to depend 98 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: on how the board unfolds too. I think the big 99 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: part of that is offensive line. And you know two 100 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: guys that that stick out, Bernard Raymond and Trevor Penning, 101 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: you know, two of the top tackles they don't, you know, 102 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: always seem to be going by twenty one and I 103 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: think they needed tackle, just given Isaiah Win's injury history, 104 00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: Trent Brown's injury history behind them. Justin Harran, I don't know. 105 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,359 Speaker 1: I mean, maybe he's a maybe he's a swing backup. 106 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,559 Speaker 1: I'm not sure if he's destined to be a starting 107 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 1: left tackle or right tackle in the league. So I 108 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 1: think there could certainly be an argument if one of 109 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 1: those guys is there. I think overall, that might to 110 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: me make the most sense to secure the tackle position. 111 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 1: I know everyone is probably a little bit afraid of 112 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: guard and the interior, but I mean, let's face it, 113 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: they've lost both of their starters from last year. You 114 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: really like Michael and when you coming back in and 115 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: there's certainly four or five guards, Zion Johnson being one 116 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: of them, that that's commonly mocked to them. So I 117 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: really don't think that that's as big of a need 118 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: to go immediately. But you know, to Paul's point, I 119 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: think reinforcing a very important position. You know, one of 120 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: those tackles goes down, right now, what do you kind 121 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: of do when I go back to Nate's solder bringing 122 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: him in, you know, knowing that Matt Light was coming 123 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: toward the end, you had kind of a succession plan 124 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: in place, and look what happened. You know, he gets 125 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: thrust right into the fireplane, you know, across from him 126 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 1: when Sebastian Bolman went down. So I like to see 127 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: a little bit more forethought in terms of those positions. 128 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: And I think tackle is a vital one. And I 129 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: think that's a pick where although it's an offensive lineman, 130 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: if you took one in the first round, you could 131 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: say it's a necessary pick. And I think it could. 132 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: It could help them, and it might be somebody that 133 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: they need sooner than later. Yeah, I agree with the 134 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: need at offensive line, and they could certainly go in 135 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 1: that direction, and I think it would be a smart pick. 136 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 1: I wouldn't necessarily be a sexy one or one that 137 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: I'm happy with because I think they have so many 138 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: other needs. But Tis, I'm going to tea you up 139 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: right now, because I know you like to get You're 140 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: enamored with the flashy toys. So I'm going to ask 141 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: you wide receivers. Let's say the Patriots were at twenty 142 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: one and all of a sudden you get to twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen. 143 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: You know, somewhere where the Patriots could realistically get up 144 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: to Is there a guy, a wide receiver that you 145 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 1: think is worth moving up for. I would say Williams 146 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: if he was healthy. But honestly, I think one of 147 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: the Ohio State guys, like if a Lava slips and 148 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 1: you know he's in the early teens, I think he 149 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 1: might be worth it. Maybe Treylon Burke's too, Um, you know, 150 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 1: just somebody. If you're getting a receiver that early. My 151 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: thing is we get a first round player, they need 152 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: to be a day one starter. So yeah, you know, 153 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: a Lave or Treylon Burks. Yeah, and how do those 154 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: guys fit in? Now You've got DeVante Parker coming in, 155 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: so you do have a little bit of um, you know, 156 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: veteran depth up above. And there's no question that they 157 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,239 Speaker 1: need to know, find elite talent and at that position 158 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: and really give mac Jones, you know, just somebody who 159 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: can you know, stretch the field horizontal, le vertically, whatever 160 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: it is. But I think, you know, there's a lot 161 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: of guys, and you know, we talked about runs. I 162 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: think that's a great question with the receivers. You know, 163 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: does all of a sudden somebody takes Wilson and here 164 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: we go, Now, it's Williams and a lave and uh, 165 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: you know, and Burks I think is a fascinating one, 166 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: a guy that we talked about a lot on the 167 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: on the podcast we did about the wide receivers um. 168 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: But somebody who can do a bunch of a bunch 169 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: of different things for them. And but again you mentioned 170 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: Christian Watson. I think he's an outstanding one. I think 171 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: at bare minimum, I just would love to tap an 172 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: interior player, you know, not someone who can plain in 173 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: the slot, who can get open quick and bring some 174 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: electricity into the middle. Nothing against you know, the guys 175 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: that they have. I do think, you know, Kendrick Bourne's 176 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: pretty good after the run. I'd love, you know, a 177 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: little bit more explosion from Jacoby Myers. But I think 178 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: that would be a nice compliment to the group that 179 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: they have. But I think long term it's a huge need. 180 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: I'd love to take two wide receivers in this draft, 181 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: you know, Day two, day three, grab a couple of guys, 182 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: round out the depth and try to build with an 183 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: eye of the future with it would be you know, 184 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: right in line to what the Patriots have done recently, 185 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: because the depth that wide receiver has been incredible the 186 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: last three or four years, and it's not considered to 187 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 1: be quite as deep and quite as talented this year. 188 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: So that's you know, it's perfect. You know, let's take 189 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: one in the third and one in the fifth, you know. So, 190 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously I'm being tongue in cheek there. I 191 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: do think that they need to find some explosiveness for 192 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: the offense so they can keep up. But as I 193 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, and just overall team speed. And that's why 194 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: I'm sort of intrigued by the linebackers a little bit. 195 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: You know, the Deans and the law, you know, those 196 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: kinds of players. And I'm not gonna lie. I look 197 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: around the league and I see some of these playmakers 198 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: play and work out for their teams a little undersized, 199 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: don't really fit the mold, and I wonder, you know, 200 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: what would the Patriots defense look like one of those? 201 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: Are they just going to be content to stick with 202 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: Jawan Bentley? You know he body side he does. I mean, 203 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: I like him, but you know, I think that I 204 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 1: think I think he's a fine player. I don't think 205 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: that he's the explosive athlete that some of these other 206 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: guys are. And I mean I'd like to see what 207 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: the Patriots defense looks like with three down playmaker who's 208 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: kind of in the mix on everything, whether it's a 209 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: pass or a run. It's uh, it's certainly worth debating, 210 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 1: you know, what is What has ray Kua McMillan got, 211 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: What has mac Wilson got? What are those players? What 212 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: do they look like here? Um? I think those are 213 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: great questions. There's a lot of unproven guys. You've had 214 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: a lot of departures of veterans Van Noy, High Tower, 215 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 1: J C. Jackson, Jamie Collins, guys who played a lot 216 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: of snaps over a lot time. I think you're seeing 217 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: a reset of sorts here. I'll be curious how they 218 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: compliment that, you know, with the draft. So before we 219 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: wrap this up, tease, let's say the Patriots they sit 220 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: tight at twenty one, and I'm gonna let you look 221 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,719 Speaker 1: at your crystal ball. What would you think that the 222 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 1: Patriots might do. I think they're taking to Kobe Dean 223 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: or Devin Lloyd. I think it's a safe pick. You know, 224 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: he's going to be a leader here for a long time, 225 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: can play three downs. I think it's a safe pick. 226 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: You don't need to move up. He's right there. Yeah, 227 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: it's hard hard to argue with with with those two guys, 228 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: and I go back and forth between the two of 229 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: them of of how well they fit in here. But 230 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: just to switch it up, I'm gonna go with the tackles. 231 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say one of those guys, Raymond or Penning falls. Um. 232 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: I think that though, that's a spot where you can 233 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: get a player who will make an impact for a 234 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: long time. And you know, maybe those are the guys 235 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: you're not going to get if you trade down a 236 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 1: little bit. So I think at twenty one, maybe maybe 237 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 1: an offensive tackle. Yeah, and I'm gonna go corner. Um. 238 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: You know, I think McDuffie probably won't be still there, 239 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: so maybe I'll go Andrew Booth. But I think there's 240 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: a chance. And again it's it all always changes based 241 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: on the way, uh, you know, the board unfolds in 242 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: front of them. You can't just say, well, they're gonna 243 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: take a corner and then all of a sudden, you know, Booth, McDuffie, Sauce, Stingley, 244 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: They're all gone. You know, I'm not just gonna take 245 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: like the seventh corner just because well it says here, 246 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a corner. I got to adjust at 247 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: that point. But I think I think someone will someone 248 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: will slip and they'll be able to get a pretty 249 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 1: good player. You know, I'm not convinced that McDuffie will 250 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: be gone. I think there's a chance that he could fit. 251 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: I actually like his teammate too, But not in the 252 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: first round Kylie Gordon. Um. You know, maybe on day two. 253 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: But corner is a position. I think they have to 254 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: come out with some corner that I would be very 255 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: surprised if they do not take a cornerback in this draft. 256 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I was surprised last year that they didn't. 257 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: And to be honest, you know, we all have our reactions, 258 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: but there's I mean, all all the positions we're talking 259 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: about are valid, and as much as we don't want 260 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: a guard, if they took a guard at some point 261 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: in the first day or two, it's you get why 262 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: we'd all certainly prefer somebody who's gonna make an impact 263 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: on the defense or make an impact on the offense 264 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: in terms of playmaking. But there's a lot of needs. 265 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,079 Speaker 1: So it's it's it's not going to be hard to 266 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 1: kind of read the tea leaves of why they took 267 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: a lot of different players in a lot of different positions. Right, 268 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: we'll have a lot more for you obviously as the 269 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: weekend unfolds. Will be with you Thursday night live for 270 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: the draft. The entirety of the first round will start 271 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: at seven thirty, but we'll be with you throughout the 272 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: first round, so that's probably gonna go seven thirty two 273 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: a round, I don't know, eleven thirty midnight or so. 274 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: You know, we'll have the same thing for day two. 275 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: We'll be with you. I think we're starting at seven, 276 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: going from seven to ten on day two and on 277 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: Saturday for those real diehards out there that you know, 278 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: somehow don't want to go outside and golf and do 279 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: something with your life. You know, you know, if you 280 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: ever talked to a girl, dude, do something, get out 281 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: of your basement. But we'll be with you from two 282 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 1: to four on Saturdays. I know Morrel would rather be 283 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: you know, in his basement watching like a Star Trek 284 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: convention or something, but you know he'll be with us instead. 285 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: So we will have you covered for the draft. We 286 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: will have all Fred's live reactions, which are worth the 287 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: price of admission alone right there, so you'll get to 288 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: hear what he what he really thinks of the first 289 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: round pick on Thursday, and then you'll get to hear 290 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: what he thinks about him on Friday after he talks 291 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: himself into a great pick, So you have that to 292 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: look forward to over the weekend.
