Let me just 59 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 2: say this and give me I know I hit this 60 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:09,399 Speaker 2: on Tuesday when I sat in on CBD. Prodas only 61 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 2: matter so much. People do not get your undergarments in 62 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 2: a bunch about who goes to a pro day. Let 63 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 2: me compare a pro day and they do have significance, 64 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 2: certainly to a college job fare where the applicants walk 65 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,839 Speaker 2: around with their resumes and all the would be employers 66 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: and the big firms are there and they're taking the applications. Okay, 67 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: would you as a prospective employer, rather find your new 68 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 2: employee at a job fair it's certainly significant, Or would 69 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 2: you rather do it in a one on one interview? 70 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 2: Would you rather welcome that job applicant into your building, 71 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 2: have dinner with him, get him to meet the whole staff, 72 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 2: run him through the interview process, or talk to him 73 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: in front of the other thirty one perspective employers they 74 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 2: have that. Yes, I wanted to see how cam Ward threw, 75 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 2: but don't don't get upset. Who goes to the pro day? 76 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 2: And that goes for any pro including Ohio State pro 77 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: days on Tuesday, which is a good time here to 78 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: point out that Ryan Day, the head coach of the 79 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 2: buck Eyes, will join us shortly. Give me what is 80 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 2: far more important than you know this? Or maybe you don't. 81 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: Maybe you want to argue with me. Maybe you do 82 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 2: know it, but wont to argue with me. Feel free 83 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 2: that private workouts and the Browns did do one this 84 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 2: week with cam Ward, and my friend Ian Rappaport says, 85 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 2: do have one scheduled with shaudor Sanders. They are far 86 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 2: more significant. 87 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, it is the intimate one on one. Do 88 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 3: I believe that you should have some kind of representation 89 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 3: at all these yes and have we Yes, we have. 90 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 3: So I think it's at this point in the game 91 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 3: the board. I wouldn't say the board is set, but 92 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 3: it's being trimmed down. And you know who you're going 93 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 3: to look at when you go to these pro days. 94 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 3: If you're sending people this, this is what I'm looking at, 95 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 3: This is what I have an interest in. This is 96 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: what I'm looking for from this person at a pro day. 97 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 3: Can Pro days help your cause? Yes? I don't know 98 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 3: if they can. I don't know about that, but I 99 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 3: think they can hurt your cause. They can't. I think 100 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 3: it's if someone runs a four a forty and they're 101 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 3: supposed to run a little faster. That's that's a problem. 102 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 2: That's like, for example, and I'm gonna ask you Ryan 103 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 2: Day about this, Jordan Hancock with a four four two 104 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 2: in Columbus Tuesday. That matters, right, It does matter a 105 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 2: lot of it Also is medical check, like how is 106 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 2: seth maclachlin coming back from that Achilles right? Like you 107 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 2: want to see these players up close? It has value certainly. 108 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 2: I mean, heck, NFL Network, ACC Network, SEC network, you 109 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 2: make your off season business with Pro Days? But I 110 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 2: just don't want fans to a read too much into 111 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 2: them or be get upset about where teams are. 112 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 3: It is another chapter in the information gathering process. Data 113 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 3: point it is that I sound enough like our organization. 114 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 2: Sure, it's also a silly season when it comes to 115 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 2: the mock drafts. To quote a front of the program 116 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 2: Brian Boldinger, everyone has a mock draft. 117 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 3: So what Adam Schefter. 118 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: Friend of the program as well, was on NFL Live 119 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 2: on Tuesday and said, Hey, I think it's gonna be 120 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 2: Abdual Carter to the Browns. Abdual Carter the Penn State edge. 121 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: Where's eleven? He's not LeVar Arrington, He's not Michael Barson's. 122 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 2: He's just the next guy up wearing a number eleven. 123 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 2: Played at about two twenty five, maybe even two nineteen 124 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 2: last year. He is elite and dangerous off the edge. 125 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,919 Speaker 2: He also has some injury concerns. Played through the playoff 126 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 2: with a shoulder, but really with one arm destroyed Notre Dame, 127 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 2: and has a foot issue as well that came up 128 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 2: at the combine. He is not, according to reports, going 129 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 2: to work out at Penn State Pro Day this week. 130 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 2: Keep asking me, who do want want. I'll tell you 131 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 2: right now, and I've said this, I want cam Ward. 132 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 2: Cam Ward may not be there, however, people go, oh, 133 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: but I I want Abdul Carter. No, actually, you know what, 134 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 2: I wouldn't mind Abdul Carter the combination. Look how the 135 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 2: Eagles just won the Super Bowl. You put Miles and 136 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 2: Abdull Carter and Alex Right if he's healthy, right, Michael Hall, 137 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 2: if he's healthy, these guys are gonna get healthy in 138 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 2: the middle of that line. You got to send him 139 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 2: in waves. Guys pass rush wins in this league, and 140 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 2: you get back to the defense you saw two years ago. 141 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 2: I'm not going to be mad if it's Abdul Carter. 142 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 2: I think I like Travis Howard Hunter Hunter. Sorry, I'm 143 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 2: thinking Will Howard. I'm looking down in my paperwork. I'm 144 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 2: thinking Will Howard, Travis Howard, Travis Hunter. 145 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 3: I really like Travis Hunter. I think if you're not 146 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 3: going to take a quarterback, I'd like to have Travis 147 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 3: Hunter on my team. I don't know if he's gonna 148 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 3: play offense, if he's going to play defense, I think 149 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 3: we know where. Andrew Berry has commented and received a combine, 150 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 3: has said receiver great we need playmakers. More playmakers the better. 151 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 3: I think that I would rather have that. But if 152 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 3: if Abduel Carter is what they're sold on and who 153 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 3: they're sold on, and they think that he is the 154 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 3: next guy that to really take this franchise to the 155 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 3: next level, who might argue with that as they have 156 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 3: a lot more zeros upstairs in the paychecks than I do. 157 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 2: And I also understand the pushback. It isn't an area 158 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 2: of need. Yes, area of need would be if you 159 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 2: don't like the quarterback, that's fine, It really is fine. 160 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 3: People. 161 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 2: The area of need would be other side of the Also, 162 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 2: go get Travis Hunter if you think he's a wide 163 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 2: receiver and the words that ab used primarily a wide 164 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 2: receiver for us, I believe it was the exact quote 165 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 2: at the combine, and then go get him. 166 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 3: That's fine as well. 167 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 2: You know, the thought experiment is, would you rather have 168 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 2: Travis Hunter and Abdul Carter at two and say Tyler Shuck. 169 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 3: At thirty three? 170 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 2: Okay, potentially Jackson Dart at thirty three, although I don't 171 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 2: think Jackson Dart is going to be there. I think 172 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 2: it's going to be gone at thirty three. I would 173 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,559 Speaker 2: agree would. 174 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 3: You rather have that? 175 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 2: Or would you rather have like Shouldoor Sanders at two 176 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: and say Josh Connerly the Oregon tackle at thirty three? 177 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 2: Nick Scorton the A and M defensive end or Traveon 178 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 2: Henderson the Buckeye back at thirty three? Like because that's 179 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 2: the thought experiment you have to play, and that's what 180 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: the Browns have to decide as well. Look, in a 181 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 2: perfect world, yeah, the Titans would take one of their 182 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 2: the Browns four sixth round picks, and the Browns can 183 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 2: move up from two to one. That's not what it's 184 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: going to cost. And for the people that want to 185 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 2: move up, and I'm one of them, you've got to 186 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 2: wrap your head around the idea that it ain't gonna 187 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 2: be cheap. For people that say, oh we can go 188 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: to from two to one, it's just two to one, 189 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 2: it ain't gonna be cheap at all. 190 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 3: And you have needs. Yeah, no, you have a lot 191 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 3: of holes still to fill. I mean you need a 192 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 3: tight end or two. You need a running back or two, 193 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 3: another wide receiver or two. Maybe a little more depth 194 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 3: on that offensive line. People you can build, especially at 195 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 3: the tackle position obviously, the quarterback room. Defensively, you have 196 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 3: right now, You've got a couple safeties, couldn't need another 197 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 3: body or two. Defensive tackle I still think is a position, 198 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 3: especially with Mike Hall Junior coming off with the injury 199 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 3: that he suffered in the final game of the year. 200 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 3: Where's he in his recovery? Is he going to be okay? 201 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 3: I think a defensive tackle, I think still a linebacker 202 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 3: would j okay A question mark. I know you just 203 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 3: got mister Baker in here, and it's great to see 204 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 3: him in the building, but I still think there's you 205 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 3: have a lot of needs. You have a lot of 206 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 3: draft picks, but you have a lot of needs still 207 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 3: that you. 208 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 2: Got talking about your own Baker, the linebacker, Buck Eye 209 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 2: and Bennettictine and former Dolphin back at home. I thought 210 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 2: the video that was posted on brown Social was cool 211 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 2: walking out with the family and being able to tell 212 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 2: the kids, Hey, Daddy's gonna be able to take you to. 213 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 3: School every morning. Now. That got me right here. That 214 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 3: warmed my heart. 215 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure he's got plenty of gas left in 216 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 2: the tank. 217 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 3: He's a guy that I really loved. 218 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 2: Member interviewed him a couple of years ago when I 219 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 2: was out of Miami for a training camp. 220 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 3: It's cool to have him back. 221 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 2: Hopefully, as you piece together the linebacker room, that linebacker 222 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 2: room does include Jokay fingers crossed. The short answer is, 223 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 2: we just don't know right now. Maybe we get an 224 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 2: update not only on j Okay but on a wide 225 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 2: range of topics next week. So just laying out the 226 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 2: postseason or the off season there is no off season 227 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 2: next week in Florida. Andrew Berry and Kevin Stefanski and 228 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 2: potentially ownership as well. We'll speak to the media at 229 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 2: the owners meetings. Is how it's you know called on TV. 230 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: It's the NFL's annual meeting where they vote on rule 231 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 2: changes and everyone is there to give everyone an update 232 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 2: on everything. So don't expect ab to say here's who 233 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 2: we're taking. That's not going to happen. But you'll at 234 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,559 Speaker 2: least have something to talk about. We will at least 235 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 2: have something to chew on a little bit more today 236 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 2: next week, rather give you than we do today. 237 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 3: Absolutely, maybe some rule changes we can get into at 238 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 3: some point, hopefully. You know, coaches at the coach's breakfast. 239 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 3: Have you been to the coaches breakfast food? Do you 240 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 3: actually eat food at the coach's bread. So here's what 241 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 3: they do, the coaches coaching. 242 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 2: So the AFC coaches gone Monday, the NFC coaches go Tuesday. 243 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 2: There bright and early in the morning, like seven thirty 244 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 2: seven forty five in the morning, and it's in a 245 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: hotel ballroom. It feels kind of like a wedding, so 246 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 2: like the big round tables hotel ballroom, you know, tables 247 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 2: at seat maybe sixteen eighteen people, and every coach has 248 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 2: a table, and the media and the cameras show up 249 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 2: very early because you need to get a spot at 250 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 2: the table. You need to get your cameras in place, 251 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 2: and they're all next to each other, and so there's 252 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 2: you know, like I'm I got my camera here potentially 253 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: if I'm a cameraman and I'm backing up against the 254 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 2: guy behind me who's talking to the other coach. But yes, 255 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,559 Speaker 2: there is a buffet, and that's another reason you get 256 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,440 Speaker 2: there early because you want to be able to eat 257 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 2: before the coaches sit down and they start answering questions. 258 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 2: But it is a really good forum because it's far 259 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 2: far more, far less formal. Rather, Kevin will sit there, 260 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 2: all the reporters will be around the table, and it 261 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 2: you know, don't expect him to again, you know, go 262 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 2: through game planning or tell you what exactly he thinks 263 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 2: of every single quarterback. But you do get injury updates sometimes, 264 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 2: and it is far more casual than what you normally get, 265 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 2: and you do get some good answers a couple of 266 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 2: years ago. Perfect little story a couple of years ago, 267 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 2: and news does break. Lamar Jackson hits send on his 268 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 2: trade request on Twitter, ninety seconds before it was all planned. 269 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 2: John Harbass sat down. Now, remember remember this, he had 270 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 2: told the Ravens privately, much like Miles had done it 271 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 2: privately before he hit send. Yeah, look I want out, 272 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 2: I want to trade, but it hadn't come out, so 273 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 2: he hit send. You want to talk about evil? Maybe 274 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 2: Evil's too st on like coordinated effort here. John Harbass 275 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 2: sat down, and they didn't know that it had been 276 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 2: out yet. First question, John, your quarterbacks just requested to 277 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 2: trade your thoughts and he would what Now he knew 278 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 2: that he had requested the trade, But they've been working 279 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 2: behind the scenes. 280 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 3: Okay, I hear the scrambled eggs are great over at 281 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 3: that now. 282 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 2: Yourself, So sometimes you get stuff like that, So it'll 283 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 2: be fun yeah, I'll save you. 284 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 3: I'll save you some bacon. 285 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 2: There we go, perfect, I promised a guest.

You know, Dallas Cowboys is eight and 332 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: a half. So like, these guys know what it means 333 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: to play in front of the bright lights. They know 334 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: what it means to play for a team with expectations 335 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: and preparation. And you know, I'm proud of the guys 336 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: that that we've developed going into this used draft. 337 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 2: Let's talk about some of those guys. You had fourteen 338 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 2: to the combine more than that working out yesterday. I 339 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 2: can't name them mall, but let's start with your quarterback. 340 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 2: There was a and I love this about Will, almost 341 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 2: like this baby face defiance that I saw yesterday from him. 342 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,880 Speaker 2: Maybe the combine wasn't the best. I loved that yesterday. 343 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 2: He kind of blamed it on fans online from that 344 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 2: school up north, which I found interesting. But Will came 345 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 2: out with a purpose yesterday to be better than Indianapolis, 346 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 2: but be put on a show. And then he wasn't 347 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 2: afraid to go Yeah, I am the best quarterback in 348 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 2: the draft. What did you see from him yesterday? 349 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 3: Yeah? 350 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,360 Speaker 4: I again, I don't think he missed the throw. 351 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,239 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe a little bit off on one, I don't know, 352 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: but like sixty some odd throws and I thought the 353 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: ball came out of his hand with pace. 354 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 4: There was a rhythm about it, you know. 355 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: And the thing about Will is like Will has just 356 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: a great makeup in terms of his you know, I 357 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 1: guess they call it now aura, but he's just got 358 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: great juice to him. And so you know that was 359 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: on display. But when you were there watching it, you know, 360 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: talking to a couple of the NFL person I was 361 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: just realized how big he is, and he just looks 362 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: like an. 363 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 4: NFL guy out there day one. You know, he's got command. 364 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 1: You know, he can line up under center, he can 365 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 1: line up in the gun, he can make all the throws. 366 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: And I think he just wanted to show, you know, 367 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 1: what he can do in person. And sometimes with that combine, 368 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: you know, they tell the guy take you know, five 369 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: at a hitch, throw it to this cone, or throw 370 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: it to this area, and the receiver is and I 371 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 1: mean it gets a little goof you. I've been there before. 372 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,239 Speaker 1: I was in the NFL. I coached the quarterbacks. But 373 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 1: you know, I think this was a little bit more 374 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: realistic to show his skill. 375 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 2: Set and you're working with guys, you know, which is 376 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 2: a huge difference obviously than the combine. But obviously, look 377 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 2: that's part of the combine test. 378 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 3: As well. 379 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 2: How do you get on the same page with guys 380 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 2: you just met a couple of days ago in Heltel lobby. 381 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 2: The defiance, not the defiance, the confidence the area. As 382 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 2: you said, how significant is that going to the next level. 383 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 2: I know it's significant there, but not only the confidence, 384 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 2: the amount of ownership that you and Chip gave him 385 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 2: at the line of scrimmage last year. I remember Chip 386 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 2: called him kind of his run game coordinator. When you 387 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 2: will evaluate the position and you look at the pro 388 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 2: days and oh, look, he could flip his hips and 389 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 2: throw at seventy yards. 390 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 3: Who cares? 391 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 2: Is that aura and leadership and ownership more significant in 392 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 2: your eyes? 393 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 3: I think so? 394 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know he. I think it's important for a quarterback. 395 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 4: The Galvini is a team. 396 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: They have to believe in him our team did. I 397 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: think that when you walk into that huddle, there's just 398 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: a certain amount of command that the quarterback needs to demand. 399 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: And you know, when you think about certain quarterback, especially 400 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 1: late in their career, they really were like a coach 401 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: on the field and you know they could get you know, 402 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: the offense into the right play based on you know, 403 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: a couple of plays that he's given in the huddle, 404 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: and then obviously he's got to be great on third. 405 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 4: Down, the red zone, two minute. 406 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: I think Will shown he can do a good job 407 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: on all three of those things, but it's all the 408 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 1: other things that the end of the matter when when 409 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: you're leading a group of men, and I guess maybe 410 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: sometimes that gets lost. You know, it doesn't get lost 411 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: on me or sure many of the coaches is you know, 412 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: just the type of guy he is to bring people 413 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: together and lead, and so his football IQ is is tremendous. 414 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: He's got great intelligence, he's got great moxie, he's got 415 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: great toughness. 416 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 4: You know, he also can run with the ball when needed. 417 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: So I think when you add all those things up, 418 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: you know you're seeing a guy who goes into the 419 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: NFL at day one ready for it. 420 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 2: Don't want fixate too much on the quarterbacks, but this 421 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 2: is a Browns podcast, and I feel like the quarterback 422 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 2: carousel in the NFL right now. You might have heard 423 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 2: the Browns are looking for one's somewhat similar almost to 424 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 2: what happens in college football. The transfer portal feels like 425 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 2: it's you know, quarterback free agency. Last year, when you 426 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 2: went through this, you found Will I know you you 427 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 2: dabbled and you looked around. Cam Ward is part of 428 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 2: the conversation. Kyle ended up in Syracuse as an Orange man, 429 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 2: Like I'm happy for that one. 430 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 3: Thank you. What did you see? 431 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 2: If I could ask, is cam Ward's name is now 432 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 2: in the NFL carousel at all? And did you think 433 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 2: that you know, we could be talking about the number 434 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 2: one overall picked in twelve months. 435 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 4: You know, I don't really have a strong opinion there. 436 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: I did watch his film when we're going through the 437 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: process and recognize somebody who made quick decisions, was accurate, 438 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: you know, and really played at a high level. 439 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 4: So I have a lot of respect for him as 440 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 4: a player. 441 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: But I can't sit there and tell you I've evaluated 442 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 1: him and can really give a lot of great input there. 443 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 1: But you know, a big part of this is fit too. 444 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 1: When you look at some young quarterbacks when they come 445 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: into the league, you know they they got to you know, 446 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: have the right fit. And I think that's been important 447 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: for CJ. You know, I'm excited to see Justin go 448 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: to the New York Jets, you know, and I just 449 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, for Will and and you know, 450 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 1: for wherever is going out in this draft. 451 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 4: You know, the fit will be important, and that's. 452 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: Why when we do our pro day, you know, we 453 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,479 Speaker 1: want to give you know, these scouts and personnel all 454 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: the information that they can possibly have to make sure 455 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: it is the right fit. Because a good fit, you know, 456 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,199 Speaker 1: it can just take off. A bad fit, you know 457 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: it can it can be a failure. So that's as 458 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: much as a part of this is anything. 459 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 2: Let's get back to your guys. Is there such a 460 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 2: thing as a bad fit for a Mecca Abuka? 461 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: I think there's there's some that are probably better than others. 462 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: But a Mecca can do multiple things. He's, you know, 463 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: somebody who has been really clutch. He's made a lot 464 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: of plays, been extremely productive, He's extremely intelligent, he's durable, powerful, 465 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: can create a lot of space in his route running, 466 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: very detailed in his in his preparation. So you know, 467 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 1: Mecca is going to play in the NFL for a 468 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 1: long long time. You know, how it all plays out, 469 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 1: you know, that's that's for the NFL to personnel to decide. 470 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 4: But whoever drafts. 471 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 1: A Mecca is going to get somebody that's going to 472 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: bring instant value to their team as a player. But 473 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: then also off the field. 474 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, and we've heard he killed the interviews, which is 475 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 2: not surprising obviously in Indianapolis. He's going to kill any interview 476 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 2: when he gets to any team. Day one on that 477 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 2: podium some of the other guys yesterday. 478 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 3: First of all, it's ty Leek Okay. 479 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, tweaked it. 480 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: But but but it was not something that we felt 481 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 1: like was like, you know, major or a long term injury. 482 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: Hopefully he'll be he'll be back to normal here in 483 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: a few weeks. 484 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 3: Good, that was scary. 485 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 2: Jordan Hancock for four two. That might surprise some people. 486 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 4: Now, I mean really good, really good. 487 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: You know, this is somebody who actually had a significant 488 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: hamstring injury early on in his career and then you know, 489 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: kind of worked his way back up and now you're seeing, 490 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: you know, really his best football. I thought he played 491 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: his best football in the playoffs. I thought he was tremendous. 492 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: I think he brings some flexibility and versatility with his game. 493 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: And this is a guy who, again maybe not a 494 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 1: lot of guys you know, we're talking about a ton, 495 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: but you know, you see the way he runs, you 496 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,199 Speaker 1: see the way he played in the playoffs. Again, a 497 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: real value pick and I think this is another guy 498 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: who's gonna play for a long time in the NFL. 499 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 2: The way he helped you out down the stretch. Do 500 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 2: you think Donovan Jackson can play tackle in the NFL. 501 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 4: I think he can. 502 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, is that his best position? 503 00:24:58,720 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 4: Probably not. 504 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 1: I would say he's a guard that could swing to 505 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 1: a tackle kind of like he did for US. But 506 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: when you watch what he did at tackle for US 507 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: this year, it's hard to say that he you know, 508 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't be you know, a good tackle in the NFL. 509 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 1: But I think that's just that's his value too. You know, 510 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 1: when you have the ability to swing from position to position, 511 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: especially with the limitations in the NFL in terms of 512 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: roster size, and you know, when you're playing an eligibile 513 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 1: or you know, when you're activating, you know, sometimes you 514 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: know there's seven guys you know that that being that 515 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: being you know something that he's done shown and put 516 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: on film. I know there's a lot of teams that 517 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,120 Speaker 1: you know, watch him, and to me, he's a can't miss. 518 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 2: Is there any chance any chance I would be crazy 519 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 2: that your two running backs would end up on the 520 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 2: same team in the NFL? 521 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 3: That would be wild, wouldn't it. 522 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I guess there's a chance, and it 523 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 1: would be great because you know, they talk about two 524 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: guys who understand about teamwork and because of their unselfishness 525 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: ended up playing their best down the stretch for us 526 00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. 527 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 4: But two really good backs, different backs, but. 528 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: Both Again, I think you're gonna have long careers in 529 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: the NFL because they're three down backs. You know, Quinn Seawn, 530 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 1: you know, somebody that we've only had for a year, 531 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: but you know, once he got into the rhythm of 532 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 1: our offense and how we do things and and more 533 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 1: of an NFL style of offense with protections and route running, 534 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 1: you know, it was was great. You know, we had 535 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: you know, some big catches and great protections for us 536 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: down the stretch. But then you also saw Trevion. I think, 537 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: you know, who knows, Travion may may have a better 538 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: career in the NFL than he did in coll It 539 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: just because of his route running ability and his ability 540 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 1: to be you know, on the field for three downs 541 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: and his home run capability. 542 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that home run capabilities certainly in the 543 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 2: playoffs here, what's it going to be like without Jack 544 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 2: Sawyer in the building. 545 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: No, he's in here right now, so I don't know yet, 546 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: So that hasn't changed yet. No, No, he's got a 547 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 1: dunkin Donuts coffee and walking around and making sure the 548 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: d lin's rocking off the ball. But he's just somebody 549 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: who is just the hard and soul of Buckeye football. 550 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: And you know it's going to be missed. These guys 551 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: are all going to be missed. But this is somebody 552 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: who grew up, you know, in Columbus, wanted to be 553 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,640 Speaker 1: a Buck guy, and so to see a come full 554 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: circle obviously with the play he made and the Cotton Bowl, 555 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: but to win a national championship, certainly, it's it's a 556 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 1: great story. 557 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 2: Got two more things for you, Ryan, and I appreciate 558 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 2: your time. There's been this talk of a not a 559 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 2: spring game. I know you made the point this week. 560 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 2: You still want to do the spring game. You know, 561 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 2: fingers crossed a roster is healthy. There's been this talk 562 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 2: of potentially Syracuse going to Colorado and having a spring 563 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 2: game between two schools, which is something at least as 564 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 2: I can remember, we have never seen happen. 565 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 4: What do you think of that? I think on the surface, 566 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,400 Speaker 4: it's it's a pretty unique idea, and I think there's 567 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 4: certainly merit to it. I think one of the things 568 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 4: about practicing. 569 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: Now and when there's there's obviously a lot of talk 570 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: about our roster limit going to one oh five. Boy, 571 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 1: there's a lot of challenges with that because when you 572 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: look at NFL teams, you'd say, well, you know, you 573 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: know they have shorter, you know. 574 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 4: Smaller rosters for three man rosters. 575 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 1: Well, when you look on a year to year basis, 576 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,479 Speaker 1: there's guys in and out of that building, you know, 577 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 1: and it starts with ninety ninety during the preseason and 578 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: they whittle it down. 579 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 4: And so you know, for us to get to one 580 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 4: oh five is tough. 581 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 1: Especially with freshmen and young players who maybe you know, 582 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,919 Speaker 1: aren't ready to get on the field. So when I 583 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 1: say that, I say that because we can't afford to 584 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: get guys injured. And when you're when you're with your 585 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 1: own team, you can set the guidelines, you can set 586 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: the rules of engagement. Uh, when you start to put 587 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: two teams together in a practice setting, boy, you know 588 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: a lot of things could happen. You know, you're not 589 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 1: you're not thinking about taking care of your teammates, and 590 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 1: now you're just worried about competing, and that that's the 591 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: biggest concern I would have. I think it's a great 592 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: idea in terms of competition and those type of things. 593 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: I would just worry about, you know, somebody you know 594 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: getting hurt because of you know, you're. 595 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 4: Not going to maybe you're gonna tackle. 596 00:28:58,320 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: If you're going to tackle and play a game, I 597 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: think that would probably be the best case scenario. 598 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 4: But if you're going to practice against somebody. 599 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: I just I see some some situations that could put 600 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: guys in harm's way. 601 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 2: You see it in the NFL. You know this would 602 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 2: join practice is day one. Day one's okay, it gets 603 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 2: a little three to day two is usually on the 604 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 2: fifth start flying, and you got to warn guys ahead 605 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 2: of time. 606 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 3: Can't have the fights spring game though. Fascinating. 607 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 2: Last thing of the one hundred and forty NFL people 608 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 2: there yesterday, what percentage would you estimate said. 609 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 3: Hey, what about what about Jeremiah Smith? 610 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 2: Tell me about him? 611 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 4: I think. 612 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: Everyone knows who he is. He's obviously become a household name, 613 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 1: and he's got two more years. So well, we'll talk 614 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: about him, and we'll give one more year before we 615 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: can start. 616 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 4: Talking about it. 617 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 2: I mean, he doesn't turn twenty until the day you 618 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 2: play the team up North this fall. 619 00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 3: He's still nineteen. 620 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 2: But you know, if you were in this draft just 621 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: saying it would be interesting, Yes, Ryan Day, Uh No, 622 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:07,479 Speaker 2: you're busy. 623 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 3: It is back to the grind. 624 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,959 Speaker 2: Appreciate the time, good luck here in spring practice, and 625 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 2: good luck getting this team ready over the next five months. 626 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 4: Appreciate you. Appreciate it. 627 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 2: Love having Ryan Day on especially now.

Yeah, it's different, Like, yeah, 634 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 2: you could breathe a little, like a weight has been 635 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 2: lifted a little. 636 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 3: Bit, a little bit, a little bit, little anvil, little 637 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 3: Biteah yeah, oh it ran rightfully, so champions prerogative.

It is going to 659 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 2: be a circus not only with shaudor Sanders, but with 660 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 2: Travis Hunter obviously as well with the UH with the 661 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 2: Iceman Trophy winner. Don't know yet who's gonna work at 662 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 2: really don't know, no, I mean we don't Right now. 663 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 3: We're hearing Abduel Carter is not gonna work out at 664 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 3: Penn State's pro day. That's a legit injury concern. Don't 665 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 3: know who's gonna work out. 666 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 2: Neither Shador nor Travis Hunter worked out at Big twelve 667 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 2: Pro day last week that was in Dallas. Assume they're 668 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 2: going to work out. I don't know that they need to. 669 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 2: I'd I'd like to see Shoudro Sanders throw as much 670 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 2: as I said, I don't care what cam Ward did 671 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 2: at as pro day. Cam Woard's got the arbum strength. 672 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:44,959 Speaker 2: I think it would be nice to see what Shador 673 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 2: does in person. Travis Hunter, I don't need to see 674 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 2: him work out again. It's about the interviews and the 675 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 2: private stuff that is far more significant. 676 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you just wonder, you know, you got guys 677 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 3: that don't want to work out at the combine. Now 678 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 3: you got guys that don't want to work out on 679 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 3: their pro days, Like, what's the future of these? You know? 680 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 3: I mean, you don't want to hurt your stock, and 681 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 3: if your stock's as high as it's going to be 682 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 3: like Will Howard. If Will Howard had said the other 683 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 3: day at Ohio State's per day, I'm not throwing I 684 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 3: would have been like, yeah, all right, I get it. 685 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 2: I would have pushed back against that because you know, 686 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 2: as you talked about there with coach, most people didn't 687 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 2: think you threw that well. And there are reasons like 688 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 2: you don't know the guys you're throwing to. 689 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 3: I get it. 690 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 2: At the combine yesterday was exactly the opposite. I think too, yes, 691 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 2: and I think he answered some critics. But if you 692 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 2: didn't like him before, you probably don't like him after 693 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 2: the Pro Day. It doesn't matter. You form your opinions 694 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 2: and then you go in person. Off season program is 695 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 2: going to start soon. We're almost in April. Gonna have 696 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 2: guys back in the building. Just friendly reminder when they're 697 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 2: back in the building, they're not actually on the field 698 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 2: practicing football. It's not football practice. 699 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 3: And they don't have to be here. It's voluntary. Volin terry. 700 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,800 Speaker 3: You can pass. That'll be the overreaction. 701 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 2: They should be there, but it's not voluntary. These are 702 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 2: These are collectively bargained things as part of your employment agreement, 703 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,760 Speaker 2: whatever your job is whatever you do for a living, 704 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 2: however you put a roof over your head, there's some 705 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 2: kind of agreement that there's are there are days when 706 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 2: you you actually don't have to come to work, like 707 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 2: others can go to work, but like you're not actually obligated. 708 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 3: No, I just report to Fela. That's how this goes. 709 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 2: And on that note, we will wrap and we'll be 710 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 2: back next week.
