6
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 2: I am Dale Lolly and Matt Daniel. Jeremiah has Mark

7
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 2: two point? Oh does he a little pre combine?

8
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 3: Mack here mocks of his ears ranks with his eyes. Yeah,

9
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,480
Speaker 3: I like it. So he has a Tennessee pretty doubt

10
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 3: ind too, I bet he has a pretty good I mean,

11
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 3: these teams don't know exactly, but he's got a pretty

12
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 3: good vibe with people are thinking.

13
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,840
Speaker 2: He has a Tennessee Titans taking at number one overall

14
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 2: Abdul Carter the addresser out of Penn State.

15
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 3: Seems pretty safe. Yeah. I mean their pass rush wasn't great.

16
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 3: I know Landry was hurt, but it's not a bad

17
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 3: place to start, you know, make the defense even stronger.

18
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 2: At two, he as the Browns taking cam Ward quarterback

19
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 2: out of Miami.

20
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 3: I would feel for cam Ward in that situation. That's

21
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,559
Speaker 3: asking a ton to be the savior as you're losing

22
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 3: lineman left and right, and you know. Yeah.

23
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: Three as the Giants taking Travis Hunter out of Colorado.

24
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna go high. But maybe he thinks

25
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 3: they're getting Stafford or something. But the Giants have to

26
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 3: get a quarterback or they're all getting fired. Yeah, but

27
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 3: I would not take Sanders at three, no, no matter what. Yeah.

28
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 2: At four, as the Patriots taking Will Campbell, the LSU offensive.

29
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 3: Lineman, it's fine. I mean, it's I don't know. It

30
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 3: doesn't move the needle a lot for me, but it's fine.

31
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 3: I'm sure he'll be a good player.

32
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 2: At five, the Jaguars take Mason Graham, the Michigan defensive tackle.

33
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 3: Seems really chocky all of a sudden.

34
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 2: At six, the Raiders take Shador Sanders, quarterback out of Colorado. Maybe.

35
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't have a problem with it. It's

36
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 3: I'm not a huge Sanders fan, but I know he's

37
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 3: not gonna fall much further than that when it's all

38
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 3: said and done and the Raiders need a quarterback.

39
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 2: And okay, seventy is the Jets taking Tyler Warren by

40
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 2: the state tight end.

41
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, send brought Bowers a fruit basket

42
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 3: if you'd go that early. I mean that's early for

43
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 3: a tight end. But he's an impact player and he

44
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 3: would play every snap for them.

45
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: At eight, the Carolina Panthers take Jaylen Walker, the edge

46
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 2: rusher out of Georgia.

47
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 3: Okay, Georgia edge. You guys seem to be firming themselves

48
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 3: up in the top fifteen.

49
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 2: At nine, the Saints take Mike Green, the edge rusher

50
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 2: out of Marshall.

51
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 3: Wow. That seemed early to be. But I think he's

52
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 3: a good player. I think he's a real good player.

53
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 3: He'd like seventeen sacks or something last year, and he's

54
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 3: gonna They usually have the big two hundred and eighty

55
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 3: pound d ends, but it's a whole new coaching staff,

56
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 3: and you know they won't want to change things up.

57
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 2: At ten, the Bears take Calvin Banks Junior, the Texas

58
00:02:58,520 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: offensive tackle.

59
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 3: Fair enough.

60
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,639
Speaker 2: At eleven, the forty nine Ers take Will Johnson, cornerback

61
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: in Michigan.

62
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 3: They could lose a corner, yeah, And the o' line

63
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 3: got picked through a little bit more, probably than they

64
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 3: were liked.

65
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 2: At twelve, the Dallas Cowboys take Walter Nolan defensive tackle,

66
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: and Missigis.

67
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 3: Starts and him and that neighbor, yeah, and maybe the

68
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 3: Bears would even consider him. Yeah, you know.

69
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 2: Thirteen, the Dolphins take Tyler Booker, guard out of Alabama.

70
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,639
Speaker 3: I don't think he's like the best guard prospect I

71
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 3: ever saw, and guards in the first half of the

72
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 3: first round aren't really my bag. But boy do they

73
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 3: need it. They need it, Boy do they need it.

74
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 2: At fourteen, the Colts take Armand Membo, Missouri offensive tackle.

75
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 3: Okay, there's some talk about Braden Smith being released or

76
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 3: Membo could even be a guard for a year. Warren's

77
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 3: the one that gets linked to them a lot, but

78
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 3: he's long gone in this case. But defense shouldn't be

79
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 3: forgotten either though.

80
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 2: At fifteen, the Falcons take mikel William Georgia edge rusher.

81
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 3: There's gonna be an edge rusher and they're going to

82
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 3: have a need. Yeah every year, Rinch repeat yeah.

83
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 2: Sixteen the Cardinals take Kenneth Grant the Michigan pretty early.

84
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: But they don't have that type of guy. No, they don't,

85
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 3: I mean, and their d line needs a lot of help.

86
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 3: He's a lot different than Robinson they took in the

87
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 3: first round last year.

88
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 2: At seventeen, the Bengals take John Ay Barron, cornerback out

89
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 2: of Texas.

90
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 3: Anything on defense makes sense. He would be the automatic

91
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 3: replacement for Mike Hilton. Yeah, and a better version in

92
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 3: younger and he could bump outside cheaper. Yeah. Yeah. I

93
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 3: was going to say the tackle makes more sense, but

94
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 3: three of them already went. The two Michigan guys and

95
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 3: Oland are gone. You know.

96
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 2: At eighteen, the Seattle Seahawks take Grey's abel offensive lineman

97
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 2: at the North Dakota.

98
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 3: Earliest I've seen him. But I was sitting at racking

99
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 3: my brain. Who's the best interior lineman left? It's him. Yeah.

100
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 2: At nineteen, the Buccaneers take tedtor Ro McMillan. There's no

101
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: way a fault you have first wide receiver taken.

102
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 3: I can't buy it.

103
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 2: I don't know.

104
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 3: I mean, this isn't There's not a ton of receiver

105
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 3: needy teams that we bypassed.

106
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 2: There isn't a great wide receiver class. I mean, I

107
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 2: just don't see that guy.

108
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 3: I think he goes top ten.

109
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 2: I don't know that he's not a top ten player

110
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 2: for me.

111
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 3: Okay, I like him more than I did a week ago.

112
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,119
Speaker 3: I think he's a better separator than I thought.

113
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: At twenty, the Broncos take Colston Loveland tight end out

114
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 2: of Michigan.

115
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 3: That's who I mocked to him as well, because I

116
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 3: wouldn't pass on Genti if I were them. He hasn't

117
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 3: gone yet, right.

118
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 2: He goes at twenty one? Ah?

119
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 3: Really, okay? How about that? I didn't know this and

120
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 3: we talked about this in an hour ago.

121
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 2: At twenty one, the Steelers take Ashton genty, running back

122
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 2: out of Boise State.

123
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 3: I mean, you might get the best player in the

124
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 3: draft at twenty one. I'm sure people were like, I

125
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 3: can't take a running back and Augie was a boss

126
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 3: blah blah blah. He wasn't. But this guy is a

127
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 3: special prospect. You're to run the ball a lot, and

128
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 3: you free agency money, you could do other things to

129
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 3: get your other needs, opening up a lot of avenues. Yeah, yeah,

130
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 3: that'd be pretty tough. No matter who your quarterback was.

131
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 3: We'd be pretty happy about it. Yeah, easy completions. Wow.

132
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 2: At twenty two, he has the Chargers taking Omari and

133
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 2: Hampton running back out of North Carolina.

134
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 3: I can see Harbaugh doing that. I was thinking about

135
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 3: the Chargers. They have so many needs. I mean, they're

136
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 3: gonna cut both, so they're gonna lose Mac their dtackles

137
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 3: weren't great to begin with. The interior road line is

138
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 3: a mess. They definitely need a receiver. Their tight ends

139
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 3: aren't very good, and right now their backs I think

140
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 3: are like Gus Edwards. Yeah, I mean they have a

141
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 3: ton of caps base. They're gonna look a lot different.

142
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 3: But let's not forget the team that Harbaugh inherted. They

143
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 3: needed a lot.

144
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 2: At twenty three, the Packers take Josh Simmons offensive tackle

145
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 2: out of Ohio State.

146
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 3: And it's all said and done. I'll be shocked if

147
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 3: he's last that long, but I and I definitely understand it.

148
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 2: At twenty four, the Vikings take Trevion Henderson running back.

149
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 2: They're all good, all from twenty one down. Yeah, yeah, yeah, again, that's.

150
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 3: Your playoff team. That's I guess that is kind of

151
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 3: like the conversation we had a half hour ago or so, like, well,

152
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 3: the I think, how you phrase it, will the league

153
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 3: look at running backs different? And we said, like kind

154
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 3: of the cherry on top, Well, those are playoff teams,

155
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 3: you know, like, if you're gonna give me a great

156
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 3: back on a good team, maybe I become a great team.

157
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 2: Right, I'm not going to do this if I'm in

158
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 2: the top ten, because yeah, if I'm in the top ten,

159
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: my team's stunk.

160
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 3: Does that make the Raiders? Maybe they win another game

161
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 3: or two, but it doesn't make you beat the Chiefs

162
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 3: if you're not the Raiders, you know. Uh.

163
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: At twenty five, the Texans take in Mecca Igbuka.

164
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 3: They consurgerus them. They need a plug and play receiver

165
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 3: in a bad way. I don't know when Dell plays again.

166
00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 2: At twenty six, the Rams take Darius Alexander, defensive tackle

167
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 2: from Toledo.

168
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 3: Wow, it's not even really a need. They've drafted Kobe

169
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 3: Turner in fifth grade, you know, recently. Maybe DJ just

170
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 3: want to give him the first round.

171
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 2: Maybe.

172
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 3: Wow. I wonder Ifeop were gonna be talking about him

173
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 3: a twenty one it's been's all said and done.

174
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 2: Maybe twenty seven the Ravens take Shamar Stewart out of

175
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 2: Texas A and M.

176
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 3: I mean they kind of did that with Oway. Different

177
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 3: body type and body type production. You know, we'll he

178
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 3: coached him up.

179
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 2: He looks more like Klais Campbell than yeah.

180
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh wait, he does, he does. But they they

181
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 3: took a tools he dude with little production not long ago.

182
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty eight, the Lions take Donovan Jackson, guard out

183
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 2: of Ohio State.

184
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 3: Zeitler's up and they're they're never going to ignore.

185
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 2: Their Donovan Jackson is a good player.

186
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 3: He's a good player, yeah, I mean some might even

187
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 3: look at him a tackle and a pinch. Yeah, that's

188
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 3: a nice addition for them. They don't have a lot

189
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 3: of needs.

190
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 2: At twenty nine, the command take Gihad Campbell, linebacker out

191
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 2: of Alabama.

192
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 3: I guess he could learn from Wagner and you take

193
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 3: that apart value.

194
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

195
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 3: Yeah.

196
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 2: At thirty the Bills take Matthew Golden wide receiver out

197
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 2: of Texas.

198
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 3: I would think they'd be happy about that. They don't

199
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 3: fill every at number one, but he could be helpful. Yeah,

200
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 3: him and Coleman grow together.

201
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 2: At thirty one, the Chiefs take Josh Connery offensive tackle

202
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 2: at Oregon.

203
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 3: I bet they would take that right now. Yeah, I

204
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 3: mean a left tackle. That's maybe he's not a superstar prospect,

205
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 3: but he's a good left tackle prospect. You don't get

206
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 3: those thirty one very often.

207
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 2: And at thirty two, the Eagles take Malachi Stark's safety

208
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 2: out of Georgia.

209
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 3: Well, they like Georgia defenders. I never thought two years ago.

210
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at their roster, their safeties

211
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 2: were just.

212
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 3: That's just an average part of it, right, I mean,

213
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 3: you can make the best part of real strength. I

214
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 3: do think they'll lose Williams in sweat and probably would

215
00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 3: go d line. But I mean I can't imagine him

216
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 3: getting out of the first round. He's he's a really

217
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 3: good player. I think he goes early as like Indianapolis

218
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 3: with him or Lou Amarumo, I always kill his name. Yeah,

219
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 3: who would you take if he didn't take genty genty?

220
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 3: You know, I mean, if the way it fell the

221
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 3: way that one fell, I'm taking genty. Yeah.

222
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 2: There's just no way fans or butts about it. And

223
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 2: people can scream about the wide receivers all they want.

224
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,959
Speaker 2: I'm taking the guy who's gonna get the ball twenty.

225
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 3: Times, right, you can. We just did a segment on

226
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 3: veteran wide receivers. Can find one of those dudes or whatever.

227
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're gonna give me Ladanian Tomlinson at pick

228
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 2: twenty one. I'm gonna take Ladanian Tomlins at twenty.

229
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 3: Folks, would you trade the twenty first pick right now

230
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 3: for Bijon minus two years? Yeah? Yes, I will, Yes,

231
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: I would. He's a nightmare to play against. Right, yeah, exactly,

232
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 3: you would.

233
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 2: I mean, make your talk about making your offense better

234
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 2: boom yeah, get.

235
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 3: The best player on the best offensive player in the draft.

236
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 3: That's a good way to make your offense better.

237
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 2: Right there. At twenty one, And if the Steelers took

238
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 2: Ashton genty there, he's winning offensive Rookie of the year.

239
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 3: He's definitely the number one leader in the clubhouse before

240
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 3: it even started.

241
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 2: Before any of the quarterbacks, before any.

242
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, right, because he probably is sight

243
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 3: unseen no matter where the team he goes to, if

244
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,839
Speaker 3: he ends up in Denver or whatever. I mean, he's

245
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 3: probably the leader in the clubhouse on that. Yeah. McMillan's

246
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 3: the one that shocked me the most how far he

247
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:23,959
Speaker 3: had him dropped.

248
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 2: I just don't I don't love the wide receiver class.

249
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 2: I don't love at the top of the receiver class.

250
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 3: I don't know either. I'm warm enough the burden a

251
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: little bit more. But he didn't even have him going

252
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 3: in the first round. The other guys are good, I

253
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 3: mean their first round of players, don't get me wrong,

254
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 3: but like even Abuca, is he better than McConkey was

255
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 3: or worthy like the guys who went the end of

256
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,560
Speaker 3: the first round. I think he's kind of like the

257
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 3: same grade as those dudes, you know, Coleman, that version,

258
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 3: you know, to get all those dudes who went to

259
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,439
Speaker 3: the end of the first round, you know, Pierce All.

260
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 3: I just don't know that I want to take that

261
00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 3: a lot better than those guys.

262
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 2: I don't know that I want to take that at

263
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 2: twenty one, just because which is why I'd like to

264
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 2: take care of some of the wide receiver need now

265
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 2: now in.

266
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 3: The next couple of weeks here. Yeah, at least have

267
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 3: some kind of veteran that I can more than live

268
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 3: with them.

269
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 2: And it happened to be quite honest. I mean, the

270
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 2: Steelers have had some luck with some of these young

271
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 2: wide receivers coming in and contributing early. But you got

272
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 2: burned by it Wilson last year.

273
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, You're counting on him to do something

274
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 3: and couldn't.

275
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, right, right, you know, so it is kind

276
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 2: of I mean, that's maybe more of the norm. I know,

277
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 2: everybody expects the receivers to come in and play right now,

278
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 2: because it's happened with some guys, But sometimes it takes

279
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,199
Speaker 2: time for these guys. He used to be used to

280
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: be a three years you know, the third year breakout, breakout.

281
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 3: Guys, draft that guy in fantasy after two years and

282
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 3: a breakout after your three like that. That's ancient history

283
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 3: to some degree. But just counting on rookies in general,

284
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 3: at any position, it is tough besides running backside running back,

285
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 3: but yeah, it is tough. I mean even like sure

286
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 3: would love Nolan, but if the Steelers drafted Nolan in

287
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 3: twenty one, he might play forty percent of snaps as

288
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 3: a rookie and then eighty percent of snaps is a second.

289
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 2: Year guy unless he's right really just you know, gets

290
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 2: it right.

291
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 3: Because he can keep Benton on the bench or sort

292
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,559
Speaker 3: of not Hayward. You know what, what guy that you

293
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 3: could draft running back aside because there's only running one

294
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,599
Speaker 3: running back, would take a twenty one and I'd be

295
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 3: shocked if he gets cornerback, would play, would play a lot. Yeah,

296
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 3: could be a starter every snap type guy. Yeah, because

297
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 3: that's it's just a different position. You got him, yeah, yeah, yeah,

298
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 3: better than that. Your first round pick probably won't play

299
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 3: seventy five percent of snaps.

300
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're you're not drafting an offensive line.

301
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,439
Speaker 3: No lineman would draft.

302
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 2: It's just not drafting an offensive line the first round.

303
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 3: And you hope last year's first round pick plays one

304
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 3: hundred percent of STAPs.

305
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I mean that's just that's the reality

306
00:13:54,960 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 2: of the situation. Like, the Steelers have two rookies, actually

307
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 2: they have four rookies who didn't played very little this Yeah. Yeah,

308
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 2: they're almost like getting draft picks. They got a lot

309
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 2: out of their rookie class that being considered too. Yeah,

310
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 2: that'll be fun in camp and preseason all that stuff too,

311
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 2: to see the second year drafted players. Oh wow, that

312
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 2: guy's could be a starter. It's way different. Yeah, yeah,

313
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 2: you know, you just have a better idea.

314
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 3: Watts is the one I'm kind of holding holding the

315
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 3: light on for. Yeah, I'm not saying he's gonna be MAKA,

316
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 3: but I mean invaluable, could be a valuable special team

317
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 3: or plus before long. There's a lot of talent there. Yeah.

318
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 2: That was Daniel Jeremiah's mocked.

319
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 3: Some interesting spots there.

320
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 2: You know. Yeah, I just want to look, who do

321
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 2: you have the Steelers taking the first time around here?

322
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 3: Uh, it was a Buka.

323
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna guess that as well.

324
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 3: I'm going to I don't know why that rings right here.

325
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 2: I think I think it probably was a Buka. Let's see,

326
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 2: last time around, he had the Steelers taking Matthew.

327
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 3: Golden similar Okay, Yeah, I don't know who I prefer

328
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 3: to the two, but I like both. I just don't

329
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 3: know if I like either. At twenty one.

330
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the last time around he had Yeah, he

331
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 2: had genty going early.

332
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 3: Well to the Cowboys. Yeah, that was real chalky back then. Yeah,

333
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 3: I don't know if that would happen to now, But

334
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 3: there's a couple of spots Denver Chargers. I know the

335
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 3: Steelers aside. I had him go to the Bears, but

336
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 3: that was with the thoughts of they spend a lot

337
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 3: of money on O line trying to think they're the

338
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 3: way they might think, go get a guard or a

339
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 3: center and then put that guy in the backfield.

340
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 2: We'll know more coming out of the combine.

341
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you.

342
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 2: Hear stuff, and I wonder if you'll work out.

343
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 3: I don't know what he has to prove.

344
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.

345
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, what's a getting game. I mean, run, I.

346
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: Could gain a little bit, goes out and runs it

347
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 2: I don't know it's going to be how fast he's

348
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 2: gonna be. All I know is that I saw him

349
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 2: running away from a lot of people. I think he

350
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 2: had nine runs of fifty or more yards on sure.

351
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 2: Yeah it's crazy. Yeah, yeah, he's a really good player.

352
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 2: Yeah absolutely. But anyways, let's get through a break. That

378
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 2: you mentioned the Steelers got a lot out of their

379
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 2: rookie class this year. Yeah. Yeah. Gennaro Felice on NFL

380
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 2: dot Com ranked each of the rookie classes.

381
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 3: Yeah. Uh.

382
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 2: And this is where Yeah, I mentioned yesterday that I

383
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 2: did a show with Tim Benz from the Auto Show

384
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,239
Speaker 2: on Friday and he said he wasn't real sold on

385
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 2: the steelers last two draft classes.

386
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't think they got a lot. Yeah.

387
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 2: I think last year's draft class was ranked at the

388
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 2: end of the season top five.

389
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of them.

390
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 2: And they got a lot of snaps out of last

391
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 2: a lot of snap.

392
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 3: This year, they had a lot of injuries. They didn't

393
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 3: give me.

394
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,439
Speaker 2: They got a lot of snaps, so they.

395
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 3: I mean, Fraser played a time, McCormick played at time,

396
00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 3: good number. Yeah.

397
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 2: Anyway, so let's look at where the bishop.

398
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 3: I mean, don't forget he was a rookie.

399
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 2: Two right, there's it matters, Yeah right there absolutely so

400
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 2: he had number one. Washington, the quarterback goes the quarterback

401
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 2: was the offensive rookie of the year. That goes a

402
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 2: long way. But they also got jers On Newton was

403
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 2: a thirty six pick in the draft. They had three

404
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 2: second round picks, which they traded Sweat and they traded

405
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 2: Chase Young. You know, that's where some of this stuff

406
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 2: gets a little like after every draft every year gets

407
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 2: such a comical such and such team had two first

408
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 2: round draft picks. Well they got an ay, well.

409
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 3: No kidding, right, be pound for pound? Yeah, what do

410
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 3: you do with the cards in your hand?

411
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,200
Speaker 2: You where you had the first overall pick?

412
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 3: You get an a yeah, no kidding, but hey, Sands

413
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 3: shows a good pick, and.

414
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 2: Yeah Newton was a good place.

415
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, they did have a good class. Yeah, we'll

416
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 3: see what goes on with like.

417
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 2: McCaffrey, Brandon Coleman in round three they get yeah yeah

418
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:57,239
Speaker 2: so yeah, uh at two was the Rams. Well this

419
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 2: is another instance where they had just a boatload of pick.

420
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 2: But Jared Versus.

421
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 3: Wasuilt the d line in two years. You know, it's

422
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 3: a nice start.

423
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 2: Brayden Fisk was was a good player for them. In

424
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 2: a round two, they had two third round picks. It

425
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 2: was Blake Korum Cameron Kinchins.

426
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 3: Kitchens was okay, Korum, they still hold not hope for

427
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 3: the rest of it was just it's not that great.

428
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 3: I mean they got defensive Rookie of the Year and

429
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 3: I mean I'm a little shocked that they're that high.

430
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, Bolimmer is a sixth round center, got fourteen starts

431
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 2: for them.

432
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 3: But Andrey yeah, yeah, I mean he wasn't terrible.

433
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 2: But right probably not where I would have ran. Like

434
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 2: the Steelers class was more impactful. Well, I don't know

435
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 2: about impactful. Is that the right word? They got They

436
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:38,439
Speaker 2: got more out of their guys.

437
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 3: The verse goes a long way if this goes a

438
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 3: long way.

439
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:46,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, right, the Chargers number three, and I

440
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 2: don't know that I see the nice Yeah, but he

441
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 2: was a fifth overall pick.

442
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 3: McConkie McConkey was.

443
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 2: Good, okay, but then after that, Junior Coulson, he was

444
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 2: a spot. Really the rest of them they got twelve

445
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 2: out of three. Still at cornerback. That doesn't mean he

446
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,360
Speaker 2: was good and they're fine. I mean a nice pick up. Yeah,

447
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 2: they all started next year.

448
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

449
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: Uh.

450
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 2: Four was the Raiders. Raiders, Yeah back Brock Jackson, Powers Johnson.

451
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 2: You got fourteen starts out of DJ Glaize, I don't

452
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 2: know that.

453
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, but he got better as the season went on. Yeah,

454
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 3: he had a tough time like explaining the Steelers.

455
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, but again, you know, if you're a bad team

456
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 2: like that, these guys are going to play more.

457
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 3: Of course it does Glaze start fourteen games for half

458
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 3: the league. No, No, of course. Uh.

459
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay number five, they got Bucky Irving. Bucky Irving

460
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,959
Speaker 2: had Graham Barton. Yeah, Tyke Smith the nickel. I might

461
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 2: have him higher. Yeah, they got.

462
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 3: Twelve starts, turned out a player I thought he'd be.

463
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 2: I would have them higher.

464
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I might have him too. Yeah.

465
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 2: At six was the Giants. You think Tyler Newman was

466
00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 2: thirteen thirteen starts. Say, Andrew Phillips was a good player,

467
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 2: only started six games, but he's their nickel. Yeah, Theo

468
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:04,239
Speaker 2: Johnson was.

469
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 3: They have real high hopes for him too. He'll be

470
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 3: the starter next year.

471
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 2: Tyrone Tracy will be the starter at running back.

472
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 3: I mean they may have find five starters and one

473
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 3: of them is a star. Yeah, they would be higher

474
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 3: for me too. They could put them over the Chargers.

475
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,200
Speaker 2: The Eagles are at seven.

476
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 3: Two d backs go a real long way. Yeah.

477
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 2: Your first two picks at twenty two and forty were

478
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 2: defensive backs, Jylex Hunt.

479
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 3: It's also not the easiest roster to crack, right, you know,

480
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 3: like Glaze wouldn't have started for them. No, you know

481
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:30,439
Speaker 3: it was Lane Johnson, you.

482
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 2: Know, right, I'm actually surprised Johnny Wilson started four games

483
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 2: for them.

484
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 3: I guess AJ Brown was hurt here and there, but

485
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 3: he's a three or four best. I mean that's not

486
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 3: like the home run pick. No.

487
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 2: Really, most of their rookie class was what they got

488
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 2: out of the top two corners, which was a lot,

489
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 2: which was a lot.

490
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

491
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,439
Speaker 2: Absolutely at eight the forty nine.

492
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 3: Ersh the right guard was big poony. I had Steelers

493
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 3: ahead of them, trying to think who else and pearsall

494
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 3: did very saw eleven game four starts and did nothing.

495
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 3: Now he got shot, well, I know, but but still,

496
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 3: I mean Tomos got hurt too. I mean, like.

497
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 2: Ernardo Greens appeared in the seventeen games, had seven starts.

498
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 3: That's a nice pick for him, that's a future starter.

499
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 2: Poony in the third round, okay, but I'd rather Fraser.

500
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 2: They got sixteen games and twelve starts out of Malik

501
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 2: Mustafa in the fourth round.

502
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,199
Speaker 3: The safety, Okay, that's gonna probably let him move on

503
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 3: from like a fongo or whatever. Yeah, I would haven't

504
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 3: Steelers had them too?

505
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. I mean it's not okay, you get.

506
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 3: A guard, right, a guard Steeers. I would take the

507
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 3: two Steeler O line. Like Poony might be ahead of

508
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 3: McCormick on my list, but Fraser's number one of those three,

509
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 3: and all three of them are successful interior line picks.

510
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 2: I could look at this and make an argument that Wilson, Peyton, Peyton,

511
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 2: Wilson was as impactful as any of their guys.

512
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, Green was good. Yeah, but no,

513
00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 3: I would haven't Steelers have.

514
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 2: Them at nine? The Ravens Wiggans came on. He just

515
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 2: always get the benefit of the.

516
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 3: Rose Garden had a lot of starts.

517
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 2: I don't think he's particularly good.

518
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 3: I don't either, but he's going to be their right

519
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 3: tackle or left or left tack. For a long time.

520
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 2: Wiggans play appeared in fifteen games, had six starts. Rosengarten

521
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 2: was seventeen games, fourteen starts. I think what the third

522
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 2: round Lisa isaac ap peered in four games.

523
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 3: I say he's a depth guy.

524
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dantes Walker receiver appeared in nine games. That's really

525
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 2: his two dudes, TJ Tampa seven games.

526
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 3: They might move him.

527
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,679
Speaker 2: No stuff like the Steelers class overall was better than this.

528
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I see two guys. Yeah, in the top

529
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:40,399
Speaker 3: two picks.

530
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 2: The Packers are tenth.

531
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 3: And Morgan, the first round pick, didn't do a whole

532
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 3: hackle a lot.

533
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 2: Edgri and Cooper had only started. He only started four games.

534
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 3: Though came on strong.

535
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was basically their nickel dimeon linebacker. Javon Bullard

536
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 2: defensive back that it started eleven games for the Evan

537
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,719
Speaker 2: Williams and other safety that started for them six games.

538
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 3: But other than that, Morgan didn't have any starts. Jonathan Morgan,

539
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 3: the first round pick, the six games, one start. Yeah,

540
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 3: all year. I thoughts Cooper looks like a star, but

541
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 3: that's not a great class.

542
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 2: Not a great class. The Broncos at eleven, well, they

543
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 2: had a quarterback at twelve. That every game that's high

544
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 2: higher than that, way higher. Yeah, they got nothing really

545
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 2: out of their set. Their third round pick. They didn't

546
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 2: have a two Troy Franklin their fourth round pick. Sixteen games,

547
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 2: six starts, Okay.

548
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 3: No even long term starting quarterback though.

549
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. Vley started seven games for them.

550
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 3: It's a nice late round pickup. But he's not old. Yeah.

551
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not a great class and he has quarterback.

552
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 2: I would have much well, they would be higher than that. Yeah,

553
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 2: and they have the Steelers at twelve. You got fifteen

554
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 2: starts at a Zach Frazier. You got seventeen games and

555
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 2: four st arts out of Peyton Wilson. You've got seventeen

556
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 2: games and fourteen starts out of Mason McCormick. You got

557
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 2: seventeen games and six starts out of Beanie Bishop, one

558
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,719
Speaker 2: game of one start out of TROYA file Tan. Who

559
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,239
Speaker 2: I get. That's but there's some other teams on here

560
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 2: that didn't get anything ahead of their first round picking.

561
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, he had four draft picks that really

562
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 3: didn't contribute in the regular season. You got a lot

563
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 3: of the guys that did got a lot of snaps there.

564
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 3: You have a lot of snap.

565
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jacksonville with Brian Thomas at twenty three straw that's

566
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,360
Speaker 2: a good one. Mason Smith, they got eleven games, five

567
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 2: starts out of Jerry and Jones? Or was there Nickel

568
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,159
Speaker 2: in the third round?

569
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 3: I'm trying to think what else was that kicker?

570
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 2: Cam Little?

571
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 3: If you take a kicker in the mid rounds, you

572
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,679
Speaker 3: better said, yeah, a kicker period.

573
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 2: I mean, really, that classes Brian Thomas and Mason Smith

574
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 2: with a little Jerry and Jones in.

575
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 3: There, I would say it'll be better than that.

576
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:59,199
Speaker 2: Fourteen the Tennessee Titans, they get a lot out of

577
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 2: j c lay them into Andre Sweat. Yeah, they did,

578
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 2: like I think they would be. Would they hire on

579
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 2: my the would be high on my list. Yeah, Jarvis

580
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 2: Brownlee started fourteen games, going to be a long term guy. Yeah,

581
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 2: they get looks like three starters out of that. Yeah,

582
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 2: the first pick of my brain here who else they at?

583
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 2: And I mean those two big guys go a long way. Absolutely, Yeah,

584
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 2: I would have them high. They should be higher the Bears.

585
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 2: They get Taylor Williams in two first round draft picks,

586
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: they should they should actually be higher than where they are.

587
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 3: They underachieved, underachieved, first and tenth pick in the draft.

588
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you got your punter. Who's your punter all

589
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 2: season long? Might They took a punter in the fourth.

590
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 3: Round, Like, I think a Dooonday is a really promising future,

591
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 3: but you like can't use them for starter, like for fantasy.

592
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 2: Taylor Williams was the number one overall pick in the

593
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 2: draft and kind of underachieved.

594
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 3: I make an offensive coordinator got fired halfway through the year.

595
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 3: Coach got fired.

596
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 2: I mean, like, yeah, fifteen is not where you want

597
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 2: to be at.

598
00:26:58,080 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 3: No resources.

599
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 2: The Saints at sixteen for Waga seventeen games, seventeen starts. Yeah,

600
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,640
Speaker 2: mckinstrey in round two at forty one, fifteen games, nine

601
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 2: starts they get after.

602
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 3: They trade Latimore. He became a foundation.

603
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 2: Seven games and six starts at a Spencer rattler.

604
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, he might be a starter all year this year.

605
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 3: It doesn't Yeah, it doesn't mean it's a great pick.

606
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 2: They signed their punter in as an undrafted free agent.

607
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 3: Okay, that's fine.

608
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 2: Probably should do it.

609
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, but that's fine.

610
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 2: The Texans are at seventeen. They didn't have a first

611
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 2: round draft pick.

612
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 3: No, but the corner was good.

613
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 2: Kamari Lasser fourteen starts. Blake Fisher their other second round

614
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 2: draft pick, fifteen games, five starts, and it.

615
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 3: Wasn't pretty though. No safety from UFC.

616
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 2: Bullock Kaylen Bullock thirteen starts for them. They get Kate

617
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,400
Speaker 2: Stover started nine games for them at tight end because

618
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 2: of injuries.

619
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, I mean they're.

620
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 2: Not having a first round draft pick, that's yeah.

621
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,919
Speaker 3: They had a good class. They're happy with it.

622
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 2: The Patriots that are all the way down at eighteen.

623
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 3: Boy, I'd take May over so many names we listed,

624
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 3: but did he have a great rookie year? No? But

625
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 3: could he potentially have a great rookie year? No? There

626
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 3: was nothing around him.

627
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

628
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 3: The two receivers were really disappointing.

629
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jalen Polk in round two at thirty seven, Yeah,

630
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 2: Ou Baker two, Yeah, Cayden Wallace in the third round.

631
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 2: The offensive tackle couldn't break the couldn't break the lineup

632
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 2: for them, couldn't stay in the lineup for them.

633
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 3: They had high picks.

634
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 2: Took a Garden a fourth round, Layden Robinson who did

635
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 2: start eleven games for them.

636
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:30,640
Speaker 3: But but I remember thinking, I don't know much about

637
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 3: Laden Robbinson to be a fourth round pick at the

638
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 3: time too.

639
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Seahawks were at pretty bad class. Seahawks were

640
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 2: at nineteen.

641
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 3: Seahawks at nineteen.

642
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 2: They got nine starts out of Byron Murphy.

643
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I expect a little more, but I still have

644
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 3: a lot of hope for him.

645
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 2: Nothing out of Christian Haynes in the third round they

646
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 2: didn't even play all. He had sixteen games, no starts.

647
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 2: Round four they got Tyrese Knight, who started nine games

648
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 2: for them after the bye. Was fine.

649
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 3: No, I think they're fond of him. A J.

650
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 2: Barner the tight end in four round as well. And

651
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 2: it's kind of it.

652
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 3: That's not great. It's a good exercise to go through

653
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 3: these because everyone gets so excited about these draft classes.

654
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 3: Like the Bear is a perfect example, And how much

655
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 3: did you really get out of a lot of these?

656
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 3: You know, his rookies, like like Haynes for Seattle, he

657
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 3: may be a long term starter starting this year at guard,

658
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 3: but as a rookie didn't do all that much. You know,

659
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 3: twenty are the Colts, Okay Colts l Mitchell late two

660
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 3: started one game as a fifteenth overall in my defensive

661
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 3: rookie of the year pick too. I thought he'd come

662
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 3: in and have a verse like rookie year Adam Night.

663
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 3: Mitchell seven starts out of him, He's in a crowded

664
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 3: receiver room.

665
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, Matt gonklobs eight starts out of him.

666
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 3: He might be a long term starter.

667
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 2: They get five starts out of Tanner Border leaning, which

668
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 2: because Kelly got hurt. Kelly got hurt and there were

669
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 2: people at midseason who picked him as the starting or

670
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 2: is there I remember that? Yeah, center, rookie center of

671
00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 2: the year. I'm like the other guy exist here.

672
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 3: The dude in Tampa and the dude and picture. Yeah,

673
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 3: that are better and clearly better.

674
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

675
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 3: And Bordline, he's a nice picking the fifth round. I mean,

676
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 3: that's that worked out?

677
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

678
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 3: No, they must say he's a player, he's just not

679
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 3: going to Pro Bowls. No.

680
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 2: They also got six starts out of Jaylen Carlos, a

681
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 2: linebacker that they took in the fifth round.

682
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 3: It must have been late in the year.

683
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, Arizona has to be disappointed to be this low.

684
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 2: Twenty one two first had two first round draft picks.

685
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 2: Took Marvin Harrison fourth overall.

686
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 3: Who probably was the sixth or seventh best rookie receiver.

687
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

688
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 3: Now he may end up going to Pro Bowls. I mean, like,

689
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 3: I'm not super worried about him, but it wasn't great.

690
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 2: It also took Darius Robinson six games no start, so

691
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 2: he got hurt. He got hurt.

692
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

693
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 2: Max Melton in Round two three seventeen games, three starts.

694
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, I assume he'll be a starter.

695
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 2: They got nine starts out of Tip Raymond, who was

696
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 2: a blocking tight end it started. That doesn't tell me

697
00:30:59,080 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 2: a whole.

698
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 3: Lot about him. Adam's not gonna start over McBride. No,

699
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 3: I mean, he's a totally different player.

700
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 2: Isaiah Adams a third round guard, had four third round

701
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 2: draft they a ton of drafty, had all kinds of

702
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 2: draft capital, and they're twenty first.

703
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's disappointed. It's like the Bears. Yeah, you should

704
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 3: be a top six.

705
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially when one of your picks is a top

706
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 2: five pick or right, Yeah, should be better than that.

707
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 2: Twenty two the Dolphins.

708
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 3: But they definitely a home run.

709
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 2: Started one game though. The situational pass rusher, yeah, Patrick

710
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 2: Paul in Round two, seven games, three starts. They got

711
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 2: one start out of Jalen Right in the fourth round.

712
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 2: They didn't have a third round pick.

713
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 3: That's a luxury pick they shouldn't have made. That should

714
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 3: have been a three or twenty pound guard.

715
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, they also took Malik Washington. He's made three starts

716
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 2: for him, but he's a gadgety player. And Storm Duck

717
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 2: was a notable free agent who started three games from

718
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 2: storm Duck fair but not a lot great. Yeah twenty

719
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,040
Speaker 2: two the Falcons at twenty.

720
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 3: Three Pennix didn't hardly play five games, three starts, Yeah,

721
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 3: Auror Hero eight games, no stars. Then they went d

722
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 3: line heavy.

723
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, Grayland Trice no, no games, no starts, so he

724
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 2: got hurt camping the year. Brandon Dorius two games, no starts.

725
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:16,959
Speaker 2: I mean they their guys got banged up.

726
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 3: I mean they got so much heat for not taking

727
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 3: an edge guy in the first round, but then their

728
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 3: next three picks were d Lineman and still didn't hit on.

729
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, j T Bertrand twelve games, no starts. They should

730
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 2: be lower their entire draft class. They got very they

731
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 2: got three starts.

732
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 3: Out of Wow. Now I can't put stock if you're

733
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 3: not gonna give May and Nicks and you know, like McCarthy,

734
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 3: you know what I mean like you didn't even play either.

735
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 3: Mcarthy and Penick's rookie year weren't much different.

736
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't know.

737
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they probably thrilled to have them, but

738
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 3: that doesn't mean what you got out of them as

739
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 3: rookies is all that valuable.

740
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 2: The Jets and fashion who was in and now fifteen games,

741
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 2: seven starts. They had Malachi cor in round three, nine games,

742
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 2: one start, brayln Allen seventeen games, two starts, Quantes Stiggers

743
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,239
Speaker 2: started a game for them, a fifth round cornerback, and

744
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 2: that is pretty much it out.

745
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 3: Yeah.

746
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 2: Their second went to the Packers for Rogers. Yeah, who's

747
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 2: not going to be on a team, right right? The

748
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 2: Bengals come in at twenty five.

749
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 3: They've drafted poorly lately.

750
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 2: Marius Mims fifteen games thirty.

751
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 3: Thrust into action early and looks like he'll be fine.

752
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,239
Speaker 2: Chris Jenkins in round two, fifteen games, nine starts, but

753
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 2: not good. No, Jermaine Burton in round three. I don't

754
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 2: know if he makes I don't know if he makes

755
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 2: a roster next year. I don't leg with all the

756
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 2: off the field, so.

757
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 3: I don't think he traveled with him in their last

758
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 3: road game.

759
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 2: McKinley Jackson was another third round pick, thirteen games, one start.

760
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 3: Another they knew D tackle is a problem. Two of

761
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 3: their top four picks for D tackles, and they got

762
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 3: their run defense was horrendous.

763
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 2: Eric All the tight end in round four, nine game,

764
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 2: six starts. He's probably their starting tight end next year.

765
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 3: I like him a lot. Yeah, health has always been

766
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 3: a thing with him.

767
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 2: Josh Newton. They got seventeen games and six starts out

768
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 2: of cornerback and he's not great, and they got a punter.

769
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 2: It's probably better than what some of these are say.

770
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 3: That's not a horrible class.

771
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dallas at twenty six.

772
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 3: The two rookie O lineman.

773
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got eleven starts out of Tyler Guiton. You

774
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 2: got sixteen starts out of Cooper Bebe. Marshawn Neal in

775
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 2: your second round pick, eleven games, one start.

776
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:34,280
Speaker 3: I don't think he did much.

777
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 2: The AFU the linebacker, seventeen games, nine starts.

778
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 3: I think that's after Overton.

779
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kaylin Carson six games, five starts. They got to

780
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 2: start out of Ryan Floorine a sixth round wide receivers.

781
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 3: This class isn't blowing. I scarret up too much either. Yeah,

782
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 3: two starting linemen are good, but I don't think either

783
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:53,760
Speaker 3: one's great.

784
00:34:56,040 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 2: The Carolina Panthers at twenty seven, their first round, they

785
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 2: traded back into the first round thirty two and half

786
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 2: one took forget sixteen games, thirteen starts.

787
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:09,439
Speaker 3: He was pretty bad.

788
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 2: It was not good.

789
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 3: Uh, Cokers better than him.

790
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 2: Jonathan Brooks was just you knew when you drafted him

791
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 2: that he was going to be.

792
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 3: A I just read he's not gonna be there. He's

793
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 3: not gonna play next year. He may never play, might

794
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 3: be John.

795
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 2: Carter, Travon Wallace their third round linebacker. Thirteen games, eight starts.

796
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 2: Jatavian Sanders. They got six games, sixteen games, eight starts

797
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 2: out of a round.

798
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 3: Hopes for him, but that doesn't mean they allows a rookie. Yeah,

799
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 3: they just Coker is a nice one of the best

800
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 3: pickups in the class. Yeah.

801
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 2: Eleven games and four starts as a undrafted reason. Yeah.

802
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 2: The Lions down at twenty eight Terry and Arnold in

803
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:45,439
Speaker 2: the first round.

804
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,280
Speaker 3: He got picked on a lot, Yeah, a lot of

805
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 3: battle penalties. Yeah.

806
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 2: Enus Rakestraw in round two. I don't think he played much, right,

807
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 2: eight games, no starts. They took in round four. They

808
00:35:56,080 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 2: never round three pick. They took Giovanni Manu an offensive tackle. Well,

809
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:01,240
Speaker 2: he wasn't going to break.

810
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:02,839
Speaker 3: The line up. No, right for another day.

811
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, Sai uh won thirty two, sixteen games and it starts.

812
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 2: He's more of a special benchams game type. Uh McKay

813
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 2: Wingo and Christian Mahogany in round six.

814
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 3: Mahogany might be in the mixes their guard when Zeitler leaves.

815
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they took along They picked up a long snappers,

816
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:22,719
Speaker 2: an undrafted free agent.

817
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 3: They we're reaching out.

818
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty nine the Chiefs Xavier Worthy.

819
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 3: They got a lot out of Worthy down this draft.

820
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 2: That's really about it. Sue Mataia did nothing awful. Jared

821
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,240
Speaker 2: Wiley at tight end seven games to starts, Jayden Hicks

822
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,280
Speaker 2: safety seventeen games once start.

823
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:43,680
Speaker 3: That's a one man show.

824
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 2: Hunter norzad Is. They took a center h.

825
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 3: I I don't think he's even guard capable.

826
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,280
Speaker 2: I don't understand why they took a pure center around five,

827
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:52,800
Speaker 2: but they.

828
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,160
Speaker 3: Did, you know, one of the best centers in the league.

829
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:54,959
Speaker 2: Yeah.

830
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 3: They haven't draft as well as people think, especially on offense.

831
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 3: They're offensive, They've a lot of misses lately on offense.

832
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 2: At thirty are the Bills. Now the Bills traded out

833
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 2: of the first round.

834
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, remember they didn't have a pick for Diggs. Yeah,

835
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 3: and they kind of recouped some stuff, so.

836
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 2: They took key On Coleman and Cole Bishop in round.

837
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:18,800
Speaker 3: Two, which is okay, that's to be determined.

838
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 2: Dwayne Carter in round three, eleven games, three starts, Ray

839
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 2: Davis in round four.

840
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 3: That's a fine pick. It's a complimentary player.

841
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 2: Round five Cedric van pran Grainger center, not a starter,

842
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 2: sixteen games, one start. Remember when people had the Steelers

843
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 2: taking him in round one.

844
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:39,879
Speaker 3: I remember he was basically one.

845
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 2: Hundred and forty first pick in the draft.

846
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:42,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, because he went to Georgia.

847
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. Really, that's all they got out of there.

848
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, bringing those first two picks to really step up

849
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,240
Speaker 3: at key positions for them.

850
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 2: Thirty one are the Vikings. Nothing out of JJ they

851
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 2: had two first round draft picks. Nothing out of j. J. McCarthy, really,

852
00:37:58,120 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 2: nothing out of Dallas Turner.

853
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:00,560
Speaker 3: He's really disappointing, right.

854
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 2: I had somebody say, well, no, he was better than

855
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 2: you think. I'm like, really, I don't think it was.

856
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 3: A couple flashes. I don't think they had any Day

857
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 3: two picks last year, and they don't have any issue.

858
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 2: Their next pick was round four, Iyree Jackson. He got killed.

859
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 3: It's brutal. I mean, Day two picks are so valuable,

860
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 3: and they're going to go two years in a row

861
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 3: that one.

862
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, Walter Rows in round six will restard their kicker

863
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 2: around in round six, he wasn't. He was okay.

864
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 3: I wonder if they could rewrite history, would they change

865
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 3: what they did because they still have their quarterback that

866
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 3: might be their starter this year. They might be like, oh,

867
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 3: we'll stick with it and see how it plays out,

868
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 3: and Turner might be okay, you go without any second

869
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 3: and third round picks for a touch. That's real tough man.

870
00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 2: Which brings us to the Cleveland Browns at thirty two.

871
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 2: Michael Hall Junior was their first pick at number fifty four,

872
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:50,720
Speaker 2: eight games, three.

873
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 3: Starts, which is the earliest they've made their first pick

874
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 3: in three years.

875
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,840
Speaker 2: Zach Zinter in round three, seventeen games three starts.

876
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,400
Speaker 3: Well, they thought they were so good they didn't need

877
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 3: him this year. Man who knows, maybe he'll be He

878
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:03,879
Speaker 3: might have his days this year.

879
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 2: They didn't have a fourth round pick. They took Jamari

880
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:09,880
Speaker 2: Thrash in round five. In round six, they took Nathaniel Watson.

881
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,760
Speaker 2: In round seven. They had two picks there, Miles Harden

882
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 2: and Juwan Briggs, and then they got a free agent

883
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,839
Speaker 2: outside linebacker in Winston Reid. That is atrocious.

884
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 3: Atrocious. Although, if we were to bet the Monday after

885
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,240
Speaker 3: the draft, who do you think had the worst draft

886
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 3: for this year? It probably been them.

887
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 2: It would have been them.

888
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they. I didn't love the Hall pick

889
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:34,879
Speaker 3: even when they made it, and you knew Zinentro wasn't

890
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 3: going to do anything. Doesn't make it okay.

891
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 2: But you had you had two picks in the first

892
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 2: two days of the draft that have been for three

893
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,360
Speaker 2: years in a row. Yeah, because of because I watch it,

894
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 2: because of the Watson trade.

895
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 3: I mean I think their last you said that was

896
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 3: fifty four. The year before the first pick was in

897
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 3: the sixties. The year before that, their first pick was

898
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:53,840
Speaker 3: in the seventies.

899
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:55,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's bad business.

900
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 3: You can't I gon to the draft for three years.

901
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,880
Speaker 3: You just can't write. Like even when the Rams were

902
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 3: in that like they were trading first round picks for

903
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 3: Brandon Cooks and Ramsey, they made a lot of picks.

904
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 2: They were still making second and third round picks.

905
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 3: They always made second and third round picks, and they

906
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 3: killed in the comp game. They always had an extra fourth.

907
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 3: An extra fifth's cheap labor, man. You can't just not

908
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 3: pick until sixtieth overall three years in a row.

909
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just asking for it, right.

910
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:20,240
Speaker 3: Terrible.

911
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,800
Speaker 2: Anyways, let's get to a break. That was the rankings

912
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 2: of the rookie classes by Gennaro Felice on NFL dot Com.

913
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 2: He's Matt Williamson. I am Dale Lollie, and we'll be

914
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 2: back with more in a drive right after this.

915
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 1: He's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson on

916
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 1: your twenty four to seven home of the Black and

917
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: Golds in Steelers Nation Radio.

918
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 2: And we are back. I'm Dale Lolli. He is the

919
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:59,800
Speaker 2: Matt Williamson and the first quarterback domino of the offseason.

920
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 3: Oka, it's not a real heavy domino.

921
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,840
Speaker 2: The Carolina Panthers, Ye have re signed the red Rifle

922
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 2: locked them up Andy Dalton to a two year contract.

923
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 3: This sounds so terrible, but I don't mean it to be,

924
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,360
Speaker 3: because good for Andy Dalton. His car accident was one

925
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 3: of the best things that happened to them because they

926
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 3: got a very young back in the lineup and got

927
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 3: his confidence back. And I think Dalton's good for young

928
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 3: car accidents aren't. But it did work out well, it

929
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:29,800
Speaker 3: worked out, Okay, yeah, yeah.

930
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:34,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So Andy Dalton will again be there, which

931
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:34,720
Speaker 2: is fine.

932
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,760
Speaker 3: You know what, He's not threatening. I'm sure they get along. Well,

933
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 3: Bryce Young's your dude. You're done it, quarterback. You've other

934
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:45,359
Speaker 3: fish to fry. Great. Yeah, not a massive domino though

935
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 3: that affects the rest of the league.

936
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,480
Speaker 2: No, it doesn't, doesn't.

937
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 3: Really. They changed much, right, ripple in the water. I'm

938
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 3: sure if we were doing Panthers radio, we'd be like, oh,

939
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 3: we knew that was happening two months ago, you know. So.

940
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 2: Jerry Dulac reported in today's Post Gazette that these Mike

941
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,760
Speaker 2: Tomlin and the staff will sit down this week beginning

964
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, That's why I bring that up because people might

965
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 2: be wondering, why does it take so long to get

966
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:12,959
Speaker 2: to this. It didn't have to happen or it didn't

Speaker 2: A day, right, you gotta take things as they come.

972
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:23,360
Speaker 2: And that's it.

973
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 3: I mean it's been ignored for months, right.

974
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 2: The position coaches have all been break down this tape

975
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,239

00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 3: Director of the whole pro scouting staff has been not

979
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 3: dealing with draft stuff either.

980
00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,240
Speaker 2: You know, right, they're looking at the free potential free agents.

981
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 2: They're updating those lists as they happen. They're taking Andy

982
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:46,360
Speaker 2: Dalton off of that list now.

983
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you know, and not to mention too. I'm

984
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 3: sure coach Tomlin had some kind of meeting with every

985
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 3: assistant coach. It's kind of not an exit meeting, but

986
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 3: end of the year meeting. Hey, nauseus up for free agency?

987
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 3: How how bad do you want them? You know, I

988
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,360
Speaker 3: like them a lot. Blah blah blah blah blah. Yeah, okay,

989
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,799
Speaker 3: we won't get your two cents on that. Yeah, you know,

990
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:08,759
Speaker 3: all the free agents, I'm sure we're mentioned and those

991
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 3: type of means.

992
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 2: But what happens now this week is the actual planning

993
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 2: where you okay, we're gonna put this number, we're gonna

994
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 2: sit get the coaching staff here, we get the cap

995
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,400
Speaker 2: guys here. Yeah, this is what we got in cap

996
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,360
Speaker 2: space available? How do we make the team better?

997
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,399
Speaker 3: And it's I assume it hasn't changed all that much

998
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 3: since when I was in those rooms many years ago.

999
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 3: But I showed the uh the draft boards over there.

1000
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 3: But there's a free agency board too. Nausey. Second on

1001
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 3: our list, you know, sake one's one and we're and

1002
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 3: we're gonna have a number near is magnet going okay?

1003
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 3: Because when the free agency hits, those magnets get thrown

1004
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 3: off quick and you've got to be like, boom, boom boom.

1005
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:50,239
Speaker 3: You know, I thought we were gonna have this guy

1006
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 3: lined up. We came in second. Oh no, what do

1007
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 3: we do now? You're like, that's the plan they're building

1008
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,080
Speaker 3: right now, Yeah, how to approach this thing. And when

1009
00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,840
Speaker 3: they start, those magnets are flying off. You better be

1010
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 3: awake and hopefully it doesn't happen one in the morning

1011
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:04,799
Speaker 3: when you're you know, all that kind of stuff too.

1012
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 2: And here's why that's important to have those conversations this

1013
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 2: week before you get to next week.

1014
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 3: Next week's hectic.

1015
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 2: Next week is hectic, and next week is also in

1016
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 2: addition to having all the NFL teams in Indianapolis, every agent,

1017
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 2: oh yeah, who is worth his salt has not only

1018
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 2: himself there, but all the all the ancillary agents that

1019
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 2: also work for them, and conversations take place. Now.

1020
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:37,280
Speaker 3: The restaurants and bars are all full folks, and people

1021
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 3: are having in their words in their mouth that is

1022
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:41,759
Speaker 3: not closed that while they're there.

1023
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 2: Yes, and that's just doesn't mean that that contracts are

1024
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,920
Speaker 2: spoken about. But you can negotiate with your own people,

1025
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,399
Speaker 2: with guys on your own team, and that's why you'll

1026
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 2: start to see after the combine you'll start to see

1027
00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 2: some teams resigning their own guys.

1028
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 3: It's such a huge week for the agents. No one

1029
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 3: ever thinks about through the agent's eyes, but they're they're

1030
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 3: gonna leave Indy going. The Chargers, Bears, Raiders and Rams

1031
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 3: are all really interested in my guy. Are they gonna

1032
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,360
Speaker 3: pay what I want? You know? But I know that

1033
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:12,320
Speaker 3: there's interest here, you know. And oh, by the way, too,

1034
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,320
Speaker 3: A huge thing that has to take eats up hours

1035
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 3: in Indie is all the interviews you've got to do

1036
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 3: with the NFL or the draft prospects. Right, you know,

1037
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,719
Speaker 3: there's only so many hours in a day. Yeah.

1038
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:26,640
