Yeah, So Christian ellis back 39 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: in the fold. Reportedly they've matched the offer that the 40 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 2: Raiders gave them. So every lot of linebackers, I would say, 41 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 2: we're good with linebackers, right. 42 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 3: I wouldn't think so. I mean a lot of them 43 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 3: are the same I just started off with. 44 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 7: I would think, so, Fred sorry about that. 45 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 2: I told him I am forbidding him for using I 46 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 2: think when he. 47 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 3: Is, I'm gonna I think jar I think like I 48 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 3: think like I think. 49 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 4: I mean, basically, I'm a big I think I too. 50 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 3: I'm trying more. 51 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: I think I think we all are. 52 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 3: I'm surprised that they resigned Christianallis. I thought that they 53 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 3: had signed a couple of free agent linebackers and those 54 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 3: guys seem to fit that mold. Maybe they like him as. 55 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 7: A special teams guy. 56 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 3: I don't know if some people are saying he's Mike 57 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 3: Frabel's type of linebacker, and I don't know if I 58 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 3: believe that's the case. That he has him targeted to 59 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 3: play on defense Almos. 60 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 5: I'm a little cautious about because I've heard a lot 61 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 5: of different guys or Mike Frable type of fill in 62 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 5: the blank position and just curious as to how that 63 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 5: sort of became a thing like this, have you not? 64 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 2: And he's versatile. 65 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 5: Yeah. When hearing that, a lot of people are describing 66 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 5: different players, even like prospective draft picks like Mike Rabel 67 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 5: kind of players, I feel like I need to learn 68 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 5: more about Mike Abel to coach. 69 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 3: He's not going to play much his first four years, 70 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 3: then he then he'll go somewhere else and be a starter. 71 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 4: Well, I think it's a it's a it's a body 72 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 4: type thing at linebacker. I feel like that people are 73 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 4: gravitating towards Just to answer your your question. 74 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 5: You know, yeah, I'm talking about all positions. 75 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, Lina worry, is. 76 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 2: Drake may his type of quarterback? If the answers yes 77 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 2: and let's go, I'd hope so. 78 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 3: I would say that Will Campbell reminds me of Tyler Lawan. 79 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 5: I've heard Will Campbell described as a Mike Rabel type 80 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 5: of player, just as an example. I know what we 81 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 5: were talking about with the size, you know, like can 82 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 5: we've I think our buddy Mike Giardi had a story 83 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 5: about Jawan Bentley just sort of alluding to him having 84 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 5: dropped some weight being down in the two thirties. That 85 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 5: would sort of line up with everyone was just about 86 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 5: to say about the style of linebacker. I think Rabel 87 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 5: is looking for as opposed to, you know, the big 88 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 5: two fifty plus pound guys that Belichick grab. 89 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 2: It's a losing weight. Will Campbell seems to have gained 90 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 2: a little weight. He said he get weighed in at 91 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 2: three oh six at his pro day. 92 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 4: I think that was that that's not losing weight. 93 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 5: Is it a confusing him with Mason Graham? Yeah, oh man, Yeah, 94 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 5: Mason Graham's the one who was under under three hundred at. 95 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 4: The Mason Graham Cheesebergers. 96 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 5: Okay, weedy, So don't worry everybody. I only took one 97 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 5: show off on the back and speak. 98 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: But with Will camp so since he's had his prota, 99 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: did they measure his arms? 100 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, so there is a there's a lot of scuttle 101 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 4: butt about the arms right now, A lot of scuttle 102 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 4: bit about the arms. 103 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 5: Because you. 104 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 2: Measured the arms in half away if they came in 105 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: over thirty four. 106 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 3: We know. 107 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 4: So here's the deal. The arm length measurements at the 108 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 4: Senior Bowl and at the Shrine Bowl were for some 109 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 4: reason different than the arm length measurements at the combine. 110 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 4: So whoever measured the arm lengths at the combine, they 111 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 4: are bringing into question whether or not that was accurate 112 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 4: across the board, like not just with Will Campbell, everybody. 113 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 4: So like Ozzie Trapilo, who I saw yesterday at Boston College, 114 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 4: he measured it at thirty three and a half at 115 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 4: the Senior Bowl, then somehow lost to half an inch 116 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 4: in his arm length at the combine. He measured thirty 117 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 4: three flat at the combine. 118 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 5: So who would have incentive well to do one or the. 119 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 2: Other if the methodology is just no, it could. 120 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 5: Be as honest as that. But who would have incentive 121 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 5: if there were some something, you know, unto a going 122 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 5: on Senior Bowl. People are pumping up their guys. 123 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that's possible. 124 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 5: Combine doesn't care who. I mean, they're all there's three 125 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 5: hundred guys invited to the Combine. They don't care which ones. 126 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 2: Go measurement in his pro day. 127 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 4: Oh we don't know. But why the point that I 128 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 4: was trying to get to Paul Evan didn't do it 129 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 4: is that you're at that there's a lot of teams 130 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 4: that are going to actually measure themselves because I don't 131 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 4: think that there's too much inconsistency with the numbers from 132 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 4: the college you know, all Star games to the. 133 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 2: Comby more of a headache than you obviously can't take 134 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 2: you like you can't take the pure valves. 135 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 4: You can't take the pro day numbers like. 136 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 5: Pro Day Yeah, okay, but a. 137 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 2: Forty I can see because you know, if you're doing 138 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 2: it on a stop watch that I can see that 139 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 2: you know you're you're a tenth off or whatever. But 140 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 2: a tape measure is a tape measure should be Yeah. 141 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 3: It was my understanding that there would be not the 142 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 3: measurements off at the Shrine Bowl as well as the s. 143 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 5: Yeah. 144 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 4: So the measurements are and it's again it's not consistent 145 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 4: whether it's short or or long. Right, Like we're going 146 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 4: all over the place. Like some guys came in shorter 147 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 4: at the combine, some guys came in right. 148 00:06:58,360 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 3: So where were they measuring from. 149 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 4: At this point? And I'm being dead serious at this 150 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 4: point when it comes to Will Campbell, the Patriots are 151 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 4: going to have to host Will Campbell on a thirty 152 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 4: visit and measure his freaking arms. 153 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 5: Can I just say one thing that I don't want 154 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 5: to hear. If the Patriots think Will Campbell can play 155 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 5: tackle regardless of his the length of his arms, they 156 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 5: can convince me on this and we'll I'll wait and 157 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 5: see and hopefully they'll be right, and I'll have no 158 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 5: issue with that. If the Patriots drapped Will Campbell because 159 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 5: they said they had him in on his pro day 160 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 5: and they actually measured his arms and they're really X, 161 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 5: I'm going to be sick to my stomach that they're 162 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 5: just trying to convince themselves that the arms are long enough. Again, 163 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 5: if you think that he can play with those what 164 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 5: is it, thirty three and thirty thirty two. If they're 165 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 5: convinced that that's not a deal breaker, he's good enough, 166 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 5: he can do it. I'm okay with that. I'm not 167 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 5: okay if they just say, well, the combine's wrong. 168 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 4: Well, right, So apparently I think believe it was Greg 169 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 4: Bdard that reported this, said that last year in the 170 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 4: spring they measured his arms at thirty two and seven 171 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 4: eighths and then at the combine he was thirty two 172 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 4: and five a's. So now we have that measurements out 173 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 4: there that was also put out there by Jim Nagy 174 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 4: of the Senior Bowl, that he was thirty two and 175 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 4: seven as the combine comes in shorter at thirty two 176 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,559 Speaker 4: and five. As no one knows what the right answer. 177 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 2: I can just see like the first scrum that Will 178 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 2: Campbell's available, but Guard tiles up next to him and 179 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 2: he's got like a measurement and trying to get it 180 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 2: on his own. 181 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 4: I've never all right, I've never seen anything. 182 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 5: I agree with everything. I don't ever remember that. 183 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 4: I've been falling the draft my my whole life, and 184 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 4: I have never seen anything anything like this with the 185 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,599 Speaker 4: whole topic, Like when it comes to now, all of 186 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 4: a sudden, we're experts on wingspan, we're. 187 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 2: Experts on Will Campbell, and you knew that you had 188 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 2: thirty three inch arms. Would you just have a public 189 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 2: demonstration of a measurement and just say, screw all of you. 190 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 2: Here it is. If you want me, take me. If 191 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 2: you don't, don't. 192 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 5: It is funny that such a mundane thing can so 193 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 5: grossly impact a guy's future. We're talking like inches, millions 194 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 5: of dollars of inches, because going forward, if he's I mean, 195 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 5: even if he's a great guard, he won't make what 196 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 5: he could make as a great tackle, right, Like, what 197 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 5: is it three eighths of an inch or five eighths 198 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 5: of an inch or the difference in millions of dollars? 199 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 5: I mean, potentially it's. 200 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 4: The difference of him being a lock in the top 201 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 4: five and not being a lock in Like if he 202 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 4: had thirty three plus inch arms, he'd be a locktime. 203 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 5: But even if he ends up going in the top ten, Yeah, 204 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 5: that won't cost him that much in the in the 205 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 5: immediate short term, but down the road, if he's a 206 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 5: guard instead of guards make a lot of money too. 207 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 5: I'm not we don't need to have a bake sale 208 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 5: for will ca Amble. If he turns out to be 209 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 5: Quentin Nelson, he's going to make a lot of money 210 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 5: whether it's guard or tackle. But left tackles make more 211 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 5: than left guards. Yep, and eventually that will be all over, 212 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 5: you know, three eighths of an inch. It's it's kind 213 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 5: of crazy crazy. 214 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 2: So when you watch the tape, Yeah, is it evident 215 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 2: that well this guy could use longer arms or is 216 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 2: it even not an issue? And if it's not an issue, 217 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 2: then why is it an issue? Now? 218 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 5: Yes? 219 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 4: And no, I think it's a I can't even get 220 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 4: right that's right of this because I think it's evident 221 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 4: if you want to look for it, right like, and 222 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 4: if there's things that there's one or two reps a 223 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 4: game where you say to yourself, did he lose that 224 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 4: block because his arms aren't long enough? But then there's 225 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 4: sixty eight other blocks in the game where he's perfectly fine. 226 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 4: So that's offensive line though, right. All it takes is 227 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 4: for you to get the quarterback strips sacked once and 228 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 4: you've had a bad game. 229 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: So you know, I think he would be more of 230 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 2: an issue if this guy was like coming from some 231 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 2: small school but. 232 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 5: Found that he planned a U he gives me. 233 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 2: I agree with Fred, the competition's good. So at least 234 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 2: you know that he was going up against guys who were, 235 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 2: you know, future nflers. That should give you a little 236 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 2: bit of comfort. 237 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 4: Absolutely. I mean there's tape against him against pretty much 238 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 4: every top SEC edge rusher in this class. You know, 239 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 4: Shamar Stewart, Kyle Canard, Nick Gorton, like all the way down. 240 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 2: So if I'm Elliott and I'm Verbel, I'm going to 241 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 2: Maroon and Dante Scarnack and go, should we take this guy? 242 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 2: If they say yes, take him. 243 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 3: And Doug Marone was there yesterday too. 244 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, Doug Maron was there yesterday, was locked in, locked 245 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 4: into Ozzie Trapilo's workout. It seems like he he likes him, 246 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 4: some azi, big kid athletic. 247 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 2: I like him late later in the draft. 248 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 5: Day two. Yeah, day two guy, you think he's Day two, 249 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 5: That's what I mean. I don't think that everybody. I'm not. 250 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 5: I don't not think that. I'm just going by what 251 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 5: people are projecting, don't I don't rank them. Bill taught 252 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 5: me that it. 253 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 4: Might be like a he could be a top seventy 254 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 4: five picky. 255 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 2: I don't know if I want to if I take Campbell, 256 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 2: I don't know if I want to take a third 257 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 2: round on another alignement. 258 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, well we should talk about the mass Live reporting 259 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 5: that Elliott Wolf over the weekend at an event suggested 260 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 5: definitively that they maybe focused a little bit too much 261 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 5: on position last year and they won't do that this year. 262 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 5: It's more best player available. But I think that that 263 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 5: is so widely misunderstood. I think you always want to 264 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 5: get the best player available, but there's limits to that, 265 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 5: and there are positions that are not conducive to being taken. 266 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 5: You know, you don't take the best quarterback available at four, right, 267 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 5: if you're the Patriots, right, you know, if he's the 268 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 5: best player available, obviously you have drag me a kicker. 269 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 5: So I think there is an argument to be made. 270 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 5: Blocky Rears that was a blend that that deuces, you know, 271 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 5: mock draft theory that he's been roundly you know, teased about. 272 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 5: I wouldn't say criticize, I would say teased. You can 273 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 5: make an argument Ashton genty might be the best player available. 274 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,839 Speaker 5: You can make an argument that Tyler Warren might be 275 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 5: the best player available. I like the two Georgia guys 276 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 5: that Evan and Mike have been talking to me about 277 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 5: for weeks now, the two Front seven guys from Georgia. 278 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 5: I like the idea of continuing to fish in that 279 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 5: well of Georgia defensive players that almost all of them 280 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 5: have panned out, you know, not all of them, but 281 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 5: almost all of them have panned out in the NFL. 282 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 5: That's a good defense. And those guys seem ready to 283 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 5: play right away. So Williams and Walker. I'd be interested 284 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 5: in either one of those two guys. 285 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 3: For sure. It's funny how the mock drafts go in waves. 286 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 3: I came back from the Combine and felt like no 287 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 3: hope for Carter or Hunter. But now I feel like 288 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,239 Speaker 3: I have a little. 289 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 5: Well, everybody's you know, everybody's mock draft has one of 290 00:13:57,880 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 5: those guys to the Patriots. 291 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 3: Now, Yeah, which one would you want? 292 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 2: Our lads had a mock draft that came out yesterday. 293 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 2: They had us taking Abdull Carter at four. 294 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 5: I've seen a lot of those, Yeah, GRT today, Buddy 295 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 5: Mike Giardi, Boston Sports Journal had Abdua Carter. 296 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 2: Oh no, no, wait, wait, made me get it wrong. 297 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 2: They had us taking Will Campbell at four and Abdul 298 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 2: Carter was available, and he was taken at five. 299 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 4: That's all. 300 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 5: I don't see that happening. But I don't see Abdul 301 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 5: Carter being available after, you know, at four either, And 302 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 5: I've seen a lot of people. Yeah, I don't know 303 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 5: how you can pass up on Carter or Hunter if 304 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 5: you're the Patriots, can I agree? 305 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 2: Really any team if you're not picking a quarterback, right, 306 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 2: that's the problem. 307 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 5: But the first three all could take a quarterback, and 308 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 5: I could understand them passing up on one of those 309 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 5: two guys. I wouldn't if I were them, but I couldn't. 310 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 5: You know, Tennessee, Cleveland and the Giants none of them 311 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 5: has a starting quarterback. 312 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 4: The Titians are drafting camp Woard, right, Yeah, I mean 313 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 4: the video is that came from his pro day yesterday 314 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 4: of him with Calahan and there in the GM there 315 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 4: in Tennessee. I mean they were they're chopping it up, 316 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 4: I guess, but again, could smoke screen, you don't know. 317 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 4: I mean they they've spent all a free agency rebuilding 318 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 4: their offensive line and now they are chumming up with 319 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 4: him at the pro day. I just can't. 320 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 2: I mean, but maybe they want the world to think 321 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 2: that they're taking him and then they get. 322 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 4: The King's Ransom, and you know, maybe, I don't know. 323 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 4: When you have the number one overall pick like these 324 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 4: things are, usually you have control of the draft, so 325 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 4: there's no reason. 326 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think there's a big difference between 327 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams and cam Ward. 328 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 5: Oh, I agree, But that's why I wouldn't take him. 329 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 4: Right, I think that the I think it's a done deal. 330 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 5: Okay, I hope so I think Evan's right, but I 331 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 5: wouldn't take But that. 332 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 4: Doesn't mean anything like that because the Patriots still needs 333 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 4: to door Sanders to go in the top two. Right, 334 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 4: So it's really you know that that's all well and good, 335 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 4: But cam Ward's going in the top three. That's a lock. 336 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 4: It's if two quarterbacks are going to go in the 337 00:15:58,600 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 4: top three. 338 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 2: Is the question somebody was speculating. Is Jalen Milroe moving up? 339 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe the second round, bottom. 340 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 2: Of the few. 341 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 5: His forty time was special, yeah, and that's a special 342 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 5: ability as a running quarterback. I was talking to my 343 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 5: brother about this, and you know, I always work things 344 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 5: out with Rich at a time. You know, I have 345 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 5: my pre show with Rich and he was like, you know, 346 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 5: if you had told me that Jalen Hurts would be 347 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 5: as good an NFL passer as he's been, Not that 348 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 5: he's a great passer in the NFL, but as good 349 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 5: as he has been, I would have never believed you. 350 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 5: So who's to say that Jalen Milroe can't develop into 351 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 5: at least a serviceable passer to go along with what 352 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 5: is obviously special ability to run. 353 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 4: Right, he's a stronger arm. 354 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 2: If Kyle needed a quarterback right now, who do you 355 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 2: think he'd have his eye on? 356 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 4: Will Howard really something like that? Yeah, I mean I 357 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 4: don't know. Maybe he'd like Schador a little bit too. 358 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 4: But he's looking for somebody that's gonna press the right 359 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 4: button the controller. He's not looking for somebody that colors 360 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 4: outside the lines. Okay, you run my system, you know 361 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 4: this is my offense. You run my system. 362 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: But I thought his system was very quarterback friendly. 363 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, because it's so easy for the quarterback to make 364 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 4: decisions from the pocket in the system. So you don't 365 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 4: necessarily need the quarterback to drive the bus. You need 366 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 4: the quarterback to just Jalen Milroe not screwed up. I 367 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 4: don't think that would be his type. 368 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 2: Note. 369 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 5: No, well he just got my he did take Trey Lance. No, 370 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 5: you're gonna blame this on that. 371 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 4: No, we didn't. 372 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 5: Okay, that was that was Paul throwing a grenade. Yeah, okay, 373 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 5: I knew that was I knew that was coming. Okay, Paul, 374 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 5: see that's scoffing. Look, I knew that was coming. 375 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 3: Just going back to that report from Karen, I just 376 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 3: I wonder if they got so maniacally focused on receiver 377 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 3: and tackle after May that it just they were so 378 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 3: glad you focused on those two guys, you know, and 379 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 3: we all were too. 380 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 5: So can I ask a question and if you guys 381 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 5: disagree with me, feel free we can talk about it 382 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 5: at fifteen minutes, and you know I'll end up in 383 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 5: an argument with Fred out something random. I think you 384 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 5: can draft for need and draft the best player at 385 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 5: the same time. I don't think the problem was the 386 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 5: positions they targeted. The problem was the player they took. 387 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 5: If they had drafted Lad McConkie, would people be saying 388 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 5: that's what happens when you draft for need. They needed 389 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 5: a wide receiver and wide receivers were in that area. 390 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 5: He took the wrong. 391 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: One, right, Nobody complained about the position. 392 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 5: No, But now it's we had a bad draft because 393 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 5: we focus too much. It's an excuse. It's an excuse 394 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 5: for a bad draft. They didn't draft just because of 395 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 5: need and get the wrong guys. They drafted the wrong guys. 396 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 5: There were tackles available that they could have moved up 397 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 5: into the bottom of the first round. They chose not 398 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 5: to do it. Okay, take a wide receiver, you also 399 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 5: need a wide receiver. You took the wrong one. This 400 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 5: isn't about need versus best player available. It's about bad evaluation. 401 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 5: That's not the same thing. 402 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 2: It's not the same thing. 403 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 5: I thought we could get an argument out of that. 404 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: He's trying to convince us that the urgency to get 405 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 2: the need led to included them from looking at other 406 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 2: guys who correct. 407 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 5: I think it's an excuse because if they had drafted 408 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 5: Lad McConkey, I don't think any of us would be 409 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 5: saying that's what happens when you draft for need. Fred 410 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 5: was all over Lad mcconakie a year ahead of. 411 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 2: Time, years ago, years ago, child. 412 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 5: Right, But I mean he was almost as high on 413 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 5: Slade Bolden. 414 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 3: Makes me think about Will Campbell though, as Will Campbell 415 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 3: the need is he the best player available? 416 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 9: Though? 417 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, like that you kind of make that same decision again, 418 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 3: I feel. 419 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 5: And I would say, if you drafted Will Campbell, that's 420 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 5: a pick for need. If he works out, he works out, 421 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 5: but if he doesn't, it's not like you picked the 422 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 5: wrong tackle. He's the best tackle on the board. Right, 423 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 5: everybody agrees that he's the best player at that passion, 424 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 5: whether or not he can play tackle with the NFL. 425 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 2: Right if Tyler Warren, if Mason Graham are on the board, 426 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 2: and you pick Campbell. 427 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 5: That's a pick for need. I think so, And it 428 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 5: doesn't need to be wrong, right, Like I could give 429 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 5: you a million examples of the Patriots picking for need 430 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 5: and having it be a slam. 431 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 4: So why is it a pick for need? Like I 432 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 4: think if you ask ten different people Carter and Hunter 433 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 4: are off the board who you're taking at for, you 434 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 4: get ten different answers in a draft like this. So 435 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 4: there's a very good case for Will Campbell being the 436 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 4: best player available better than Mason Graham or Tyler Warren. 437 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 5: Could you could make that and I wouldn't, but you could. 438 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 4: In this draft. I think that you could. 439 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 2: But you need to isolate it because a lot of 440 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 2: times people are giving you that answer based on who's 441 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 2: picking fourth. You need to just say, if Hunt, if 442 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 2: Carter and Hunter, uh what's his name? Hunter are off 443 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 2: the board, who's the best player, who's the third best 444 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 2: player in this draft? 445 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 4: Well most people would say gent okay, But like the 446 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 4: point is that. 447 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 5: That's that's but Evan's point is you could ask ten 448 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 5: people that question and get eight different answers. 449 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 2: I know, but it is Will Campbell one of those 450 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,880 Speaker 2: eight in Yeah, probably Will Campbell's That's what I'm trying 451 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 2: to Mason Graham, Ted McMillan, you know, Tyler Warren, the 452 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 2: two Georgia guys. 453 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 4: If anybody said any of those guys were the next 454 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 4: best player in the draft, I wouldn't necessarily argue with them. 455 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 5: That's why I don't. I think when people say that's 456 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 5: what happens when teams draft for need, it's always a negative. 457 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 5: And I don't think it's a negative all the time. 458 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 5: I think it always comes down to evaluation. You need 459 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 5: to get good players, if you know, I think a 460 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,679 Speaker 5: pick that you could argue was a bad pick based 461 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 5: on need was Cole Strange for Bill Belichick. They needed 462 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 5: a guard, and you reach for a guard in the 463 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 5: first round. It's a position that's not generally taken in 464 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 5: the first round. And it was a guy, and it 465 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 5: was a guy that wasn't really slated to go in 466 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 5: the first round. 467 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 2: There's no doubt they needed it. 468 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 5: But i'll give you, you know, go back several years, 469 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 5: go back twenty plus years. They could not stop the 470 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 5: in two thousand and two. It ultimately was the reason 471 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 5: why they couldn't go back to back. They could not 472 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 5: stop anybody from running the ball. They needed to get 473 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 5: some bulk up front. They draft Ty Warren. That is 474 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 5: a need pick. It's a good pick because you needed it, 475 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 5: and he was a good player. If he ended up 476 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 5: being a defensive lineman like Dominic Easley, Ron Brace, Ron 477 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 5: Brace is a better compet because he's more of a 478 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 5: run stuffing defensive lineman who wasn't all that good. Then 479 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 5: everybody's saying, well, that's what happens when you know, it's 480 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 5: all about evaluation regardless of the positions you take. And 481 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 5: I just feel like we get lost in. 482 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 2: The Harry the position was fine. 483 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 5: If they had drafted DK Metcalf or Terry McLaurin or 484 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 5: AJ Brown, any of those wide receivers that were far 485 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 5: better than him. After that, no one would have said, 486 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 5: that's what happens when your draft for need. 487 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 3: Vega's position with this is quiquarterback. Though to me, we're 488 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 3: talking about cam Ward. 489 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 7: Is he the best player available at one overall? And 490 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:05,719 Speaker 7: that's a position. 491 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 5: Quarterback is the exception. Right quarterback is the exception that 492 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 5: when you almost always when you take a quarterback, it's 493 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 5: a pick. 494 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,199 Speaker 4: I just feel like this is like, you know, this 495 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 4: gets back to you have to have a role that 496 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 4: you envision for a player when you take four over 497 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 4: a guy four overall, that he's going to be able 498 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 4: to blossom into a franchise cornerstone type player with a 499 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 4: pick that high. And if you have guys that are 500 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 4: already you know, talk about tight end with Tyler Warren. 501 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 4: Is Tyler Warren a better tight end than Hunter Henry? 502 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 4: He might be, but they have players that are veteran 503 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 4: players ahead of him on that depth chart that now 504 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, that becomes a very crowded room. 505 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 4: And how do you sort those types of things out. 506 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 4: So I think that people misconstrue that as need but 507 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,439 Speaker 4: to me, it's what's the vision of the player? How 508 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 4: does he fit into the football team? 509 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 2: You know, how does And that was very prevalent during 510 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 2: the Belichick years because, let's face it, they had a 511 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 2: lot of really good veterans knew how to win fit 512 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 2: with what Belichick wanted to do, and so a lot 513 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 2: of his picks were based on that, Like, I could 514 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 2: pick him, but he's not going to make the team anyway, 515 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 2: so I might as well just go get this guy. 516 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 2: I think you saw a lot of that during Belichick's years. 517 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 4: You just don't want to have redundancies across the roster. 518 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 4: Like if you take Mason Graham, he might be the 519 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 4: best player available, but now you have two two hundred 520 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 4: and ninety five pound interior rushers, and so how are 521 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,239 Speaker 4: you going to play Mason Graham and Milton Williams off 522 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 4: of each other on first and second down? And does 523 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 4: that mean that Mason Graham isn't going to play as much? 524 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 4: So now that you wasted the fourth overall pick on 525 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 4: a rotational pass rusher, like that's not what you want 526 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 4: out of that pick either, So you just have to 527 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,199 Speaker 4: have a plan of how are we going to use 528 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 4: this player in a high volume capacity that's going to 529 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 4: get the most out of the pick. 530 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 2: You have to stack your board vertically and vertically. 531 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 4: Yes, because it's just easier to talk about this. 532 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 5: This part of the draft I could talk about forever, 533 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 5: just sort of trying to weigh the pros and cons 534 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 5: of concepts as opposed to thirty three or thirty two 535 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 5: inch arms. You know what I mean, what benefits you 536 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 5: the most both in the short and long term, and. 537 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 2: Bill long benefits us. 538 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 5: The right to your point, Bill often drafted with the 539 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,959 Speaker 5: long term in mind. You know, we have you know, 540 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 5: Keith Trayler replacing Ted Washington at nose tackle. We don't 541 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 5: have an immediate need there, but Vince Wilfork is available 542 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 5: at twenty one. Long term, that's going to be a 543 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 5: really good pick for us. Right, they didn't have to 544 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 5: have that at the time, but recognition of the talent 545 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 5: and you could afford to do that the spot that 546 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 5: you're in, Right, that's how you draft a guy like 547 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 5: Gronk in the second round. There's a lot of teams 548 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 5: in the league that would not be able to make 549 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 5: that pick. A guy who did not play at all 550 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 5: is last year at Arizona. If you're like Joe Shane 551 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 5: and Brian Dable right now, you can't make that pick. 552 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 5: You can't because you can't make that risk. Then you're 553 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 5: going to draft a guy and get nothing out of 554 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 5: him his rookie year. 555 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 3: He can barely draft Sanders right now. Right with the 556 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 3: hot seat, there. 557 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 5: Are so there's a lot of I could talk about 558 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 5: that kind of aspect of the draft forever. That's what 559 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 5: I like about the first round draft show the most, 560 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 5: is sort of identifying what the teams might be thinking. 561 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 3: I find myself going back though, thinking about Bill's old 562 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 3: scouting methods, which you know, I know Elliott Will said 563 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 3: they changed last year, have been in process of changing, 564 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 3: but I remember Bill's scouting system was very specific to 565 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 3: the team and how the player would fit in and 566 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 3: exactly what role they would pill and what and how 567 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 3: they would stack up, which to me sounds like common 568 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 3: sense way to approach it. But I know that there 569 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 3: are different ways to do it, and I'm. 570 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 5: And somehow that's been deemed to be a negative. 571 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 10: I agree. 572 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 3: You know, what do you get getting away from that? 573 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 3: What are you getting to like? 574 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 7: How are you reevaluate? 575 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 3: I think you'd want to get to a place where 576 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 3: you're not really thinking about the need anymore. 577 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 2: What you think? 578 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 5: I like the way Mike is talking there and going 579 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 5: back to what Evan. You know, we led the show 580 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 5: up when everyone was explaining to me about the different 581 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 5: linebackers that Rabel might necessarily gravitate to it. Right, doesn't 582 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 5: that make sense that, well, I don't need a Brandon 583 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 5: Spikes kind of guy because Rabel doesn't really want those 584 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 5: kinds of guys. Isn't that like the essence of scouting 585 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 5: for a team? Right? 586 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 4: And you'd also you don't want to give Brandon Spikes 587 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 4: to a coach that doesn't want to coach him. 588 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 2: The way that gets to the whole conversation of whoever 589 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 2: the GM is knowing what the coach wants and scouting 590 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 2: toward you know what he. 591 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 4: Wants, right, And that's why you know to go back 592 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 4: to the best player available thing. All thirty two teams 593 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 4: have different boards because they're looking for different things. They're 594 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 4: looking for different skill sets, they're looking for different scheme 595 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 4: fits and different types of you know, attitudes and things 596 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 4: like that. So you can sit there and say that 597 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 4: you think in a vacuum that Mason Graham is a 598 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 4: better player than Will Campbell, or Will Campbell's a better 599 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:03,239 Speaker 4: player or whatever. But it's very team specific when you 600 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 4: really get down to it. So you can't give Josh 601 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,439 Speaker 4: McDaniels a receiver that doesn't fit the offense that he 602 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 4: wants to run. Now, if it's Calvin Johnson, he fits 603 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,959 Speaker 4: every offense. But when we're talking about, you know, the 604 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 4: rudimentary receivers, you have to give him guys that he 605 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 4: is going to be able to unlock and use properly. 606 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 4: So when I just don't think that best player available 607 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,919 Speaker 4: is kind of a myth because it depends on the 608 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 4: you know, the beauty is in the behind eye of 609 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:32,360 Speaker 4: the beholder. 610 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 5: Well you can also say, no matter who you pick, well, 611 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 5: he was the best player in my eyes. 612 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 2: Right right right, doing what's in the best interest of 613 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 2: the team. 614 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 5: And when you go to the whole system thing, and 615 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 5: I agree with Evan again on that, you know, there's 616 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 5: certain guys that might fit better in certain systems. Now, 617 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 5: I think it's smart to go in that direction, but 618 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 5: it's also important, you know, and I think it's worthy 619 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 5: of criticism if like Bill Belichick's sort of at the end, 620 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 5: I think was kind of so set in his ways 621 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 5: that he was unbending to change the system, especially defensively, 622 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 5: that he was only interested in a certain amount of 623 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 5: guys and they were becoming harder and harder to identify 624 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 5: and find and put into, you know, put into his system. 625 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 5: So you can make a criticism, like to use Evans 626 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 5: example of Josh's type of receiver, You can criticize Josh 627 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 5: for saying, well, yeah, if you had Calvin Johnson, you 628 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 5: should be able to find a way, even though he's 629 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 5: not really you'll kind of receive it out. You should 630 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 5: be able to identify the talent and be able to 631 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 5: work it. If your system is so unbending that it 632 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,719 Speaker 5: doesn't utilize. 633 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 2: Then the problems your system correct the player. 634 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 5: That's a fair criticism, But I think teams should absolutely 635 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 5: stack boards with their type of player in mind, sure 636 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 5: that they think fits best in their system. Penetrating defensive 637 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 5: lineman now evidently as opposed to two gapping run stuffers. 638 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 4: Right, do you want to tackle that's better in a 639 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 4: downhill run scheme? Do you want his own blocking tackle? 640 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 4: Do you want running back that's going to be in 641 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 4: a spread offense. Do you want a battering ram running back? 642 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 11: Like? 643 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 12: It? 644 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 4: Just all across the board, just depends on what you're 645 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 4: trying to accomplish as a team. 646 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 2: Another thing I want to bring up, and I'm seeing 647 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 2: on one of Paul's shows, they're talking about this thing 648 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 2: Brady came out with yesterday about why he left the 649 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 2: Patriots and that the split between him and Belichick was inevitable. 650 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 2: What did you think about that? 651 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 3: I didn't actually get to see it that I was 652 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 3: just catching up here on I didn't rate it. No, 653 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 3: I didn't see it yesterday. 654 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, I saw it, Fred, Yeah, I did show Prepp. 655 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 3: You're doing your show prep with your brother. You talked 656 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 3: about it. 657 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 5: I didn't do that. That didn't come up in show prep. 658 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 5: That was this morning. I didn't see that. Yeah, he 659 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 5: was talking about that the Twitter machine. 660 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 2: It was really two part A little it was why 661 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 2: he left and why he picked Tampa Bay. But the 662 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 2: first part I thought was the most interesting to me 663 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 2: is he was saying that I had to leave. I 664 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 2: had to leave, that we had grown so far apart 665 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 2: he and Belichick, that it was just inevitable. 666 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 5: I had to go the last two or three years. 667 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was kind of I just thought that was 668 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 2: curious that he's coming out with that five year anniversaries. 669 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 5: So I think it's really curious. Yes, I think it's 670 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 5: really curious that he seems to continue these kinds of 671 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 5: things unprovoked. Yeah, and I wonder why, I mean, is 672 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 5: he I don't know. I also thought he had this 673 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 5: whole thing of he ranked about twenty different things, and 674 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 5: you know about why he left the scale to one 675 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 5: to three of you know, the pros and cons of 676 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 5: staying and going and you know, practice weather was important, 677 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 5: game weather was important. He had those separated. You know, 678 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 5: the game weather was only a two, but practice weather 679 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 5: is a three. Targets you know, the weapons that he had, 680 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 5: you know, with with Evans and Godwin, he considered that 681 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 5: a three. Arians he considered the three, you know, even 682 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 5: though he ended up coaching the team. But this is 683 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 5: where you know, and the Tom Brady's like, you know, 684 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 5: I'm not like my I don't have this deep sort 685 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 5: of under underlying, you know, lack of appreciation for Tom Brady. Money. 686 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, money wasn't. 687 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 5: Money wasn't. Money wasn't that wasn't really in the top ten. 688 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 2: That is such bold, That is such bold that that's 689 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 2: kind of what started why he wanted to leave here. 690 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 5: He correct, he was being respect wasn't appreciated. Why people 691 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 5: like Mike push him out of town? 692 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 2: Right? 693 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 5: Mike, you didn't you get the same impression when you 694 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 5: read that, like, oh, money wasn't money wasn't important? Really, Tom, 695 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 5: go ask mister Go ask mister Kraft. 696 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 2: He'll clarify and he'll say, well, the money wasn't important 697 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 2: to where I was going. But come on, if it 698 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 2: was important here, why wouldn't it be important? 699 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 5: So it was important, And I'm not blaming him for 700 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 5: it being important. I'm blaming him for not admitting it 701 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 5: was important. 702 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 4: Are we going to be like twenty years from now 703 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 4: and we're still doing like and have Brady talking about 704 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 4: him leaving the Patriots? How many more times do we 705 00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 4: have to do? 706 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 5: But I think Brady's doing this. 707 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 4: I'm not blaming anybody. 708 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 3: You keep bringing it up. 709 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 4: I have no interest, but. 710 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 5: I would just I kind of would Evan on this, 711 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 5: But I don't really understand. Is he that needy that 712 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 5: he needs to like sort of inject himself into the 713 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 5: limelight at all times? It's weird to me, And that 714 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 5: was weird there. 715 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 4: I'm just going like I kind of know the story, 716 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 4: like we we've heard it, we know, we get it. 717 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 4: It's been five years wounds, so you can move. 718 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 5: I don't have any of that. I just find it 719 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 5: odd that he continues to talk about himself that way. 720 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, all right, I just thought i'd bring that up. Okay, 721 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 2: anything else the listeners a little quiet? 722 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 4: It a cool day yesterday BC. Yeah, is at Boston 723 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 4: College yesterday. Patriots Palooza is what I would call it. 724 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 4: That Mike Rabel was there, Elliot Wolf, Ryan Cowed and 725 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 4: how many other teams all thirty two teams are represented? 726 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 4: Oh really yeah not Brable was the only head coach. 727 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 4: But you know, some cool moments with Bill O'Brien and 728 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 4: obviously with Rabel being tight with him and Maron too. 729 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 4: Maroon's really tight. 730 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 2: With other teams. Who was the big attraction? 731 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 4: Well, Aserko didn't do anything, So I would say the 732 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 4: alignment Trapillo and Kendel their centers, Draftable center as well. 733 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 4: So yeah, the Donovan Azeruku, who's their pass rusher, is 734 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 4: going to go first round? 735 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 2: Uh? 736 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 4: He he did the Senior Bowl, he did the combine, 737 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 4: so he just he just sat out the Day. But 738 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 4: I thought what O'Brien said was interesting was a lot 739 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 4: of the the reason why teams come to things like 740 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 4: pro days is actually what happens before and after the 741 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 4: Pro Day. They take them out to dinner, you know, 742 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 4: they they kind of get him in a social setting, 743 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 4: see what the kid's all about, that sort of thing. 744 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 4: So I wouldn't be surprised if you know, Azeruko had 745 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 4: a lot of meetings with teams even though he didn't 746 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,799 Speaker 4: work out at the Pro Day. But how many teams 747 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 4: would you say with the all thirty two were repres okay, 748 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 4: but you know sometimes you just sent scouts, you know, 749 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 4: not necessarily gms. 750 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 2: But that's good for BC. 751 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, and it was good. 752 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 4: I think this connection between the BC and the Patriots, 753 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 4: now that Rabel and O'Brien are the two head coaches, 754 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 4: I don't think this is going away. I think this 755 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 4: will be something that they'll they'll do a lot of 756 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 4: Rabel talked to the team, address the team before the 757 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 4: Pro Day began on Monday morning. 758 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 2: So when you went to the. 759 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 3: Z Flowers one a couple of years ago, BC, how 760 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 3: different was it this year? 761 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 4: I'd say there's more people this year, certainly more media 762 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:37,800 Speaker 4: covering it, but it was a little bit more people 763 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 4: this year, which I found surprising because it's a wide 764 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 4: receiver and you know, usually there's some value to watching 765 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 4: those guys run routes in person and things like that. 766 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 4: But you know, just in comparison, when I went to 767 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 4: for Day Flowers, the highest ranking person for the Patriots 768 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 4: was Cameron Williams, the college scouting director. This one, all 769 00:35:56,160 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 4: three top decision makers were were in attendance, so they 770 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 4: definitely tried to show it. I think a little bit 771 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 4: for O'Brien, I think they'd try to do him a 772 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 4: solid as well. But it was cool. 773 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 3: It was interesting the instadrat to me, I went to 774 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:15,760 Speaker 3: the Holy Cross one smaller, but those low level scouts 775 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 3: from other teams, just what a grind it is for them. 776 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,359 Speaker 3: It seems like they are just doing this like pro 777 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:26,439 Speaker 3: day to pro day timing, measuring, setting up stuff, taking 778 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 3: stuff down. It's just you got a little glimpse into 779 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 3: the grind of you know, we kind of sit up 780 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 3: in our ivory tower or you are scouting and you know, 781 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:34,879 Speaker 3: but like it's like you don't have to go out 782 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 3: to some random school in the middle of nowhere and 783 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,720 Speaker 3: time fifteen guys, fourteen of whom probably have no chance 784 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 3: of even making it now. 785 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 5: Were there any other prospects there yesterday other than BC players. 786 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, there are some local guys that were there, and 787 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 4: they're a quarterback who is gonna be draft eligible. I 788 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 4: believe next year. He threw to the receivers, which happens 789 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 4: a lot, so they it's kind of like an early 790 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 4: show case for him, and he threw pretty well. I 791 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 4: have to say, I think he's in a quarterback competition 792 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 4: right now at the kid that transferred from Alabama, but 793 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 4: it sounds like he's gonna win it, and he can 794 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 4: he can spin it. 795 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 5: A little bit interesting to see what BC does next year, 796 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 5: you know, year or two of O'Bryan. They get their 797 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 5: program in, get their kind of some of their kind 798 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 5: of personnel, and especially the sill last year, yeah they did, 799 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 5: they had, I mean, they had a pretty good quarterback problem. 800 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, but the quarterback last year was more of like 801 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 4: a dual threat as a runner. 802 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 5: He was a runner. 803 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 4: This kid can throw it, Yeah, he can throw it 804 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:32,720 Speaker 4: from the pocket. 805 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 2: So okay, all right, let's get to the phones. The 806 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 2: hot line is eight five to five pasts five hundred 807 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 2: we'll go to Randy in Providence. What's up Randy here? 808 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 2: You guys, how's it going good. 809 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 11: I just wanted a couple of, like, I guess comments, 810 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 11: slash questions drafts related and then kind of get you guys' 811 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,840 Speaker 11: reactions and answers afterwards. You guys were talking about the 812 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 11: length concerns with Campbell, and I felt like you were 813 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 11: kind of like almost pulling it, like like quarters of 814 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 11: an inch and so forth. And I think, you know, 815 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,399 Speaker 11: recently we saw that again in the Super Bowl where 816 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 11: it's you know, Joe Touney is just getting dominated a 817 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 11: left tackle because he's not a left tackle because of 818 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 11: the length concerns. And I do think throughout the season 819 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 11: there are a number of scouts posting and like discord 820 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:22,359 Speaker 11: groups and a couple on YouTube channels of their own 821 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,760 Speaker 11: that we're concerned about Will Campbell's length and his ability 822 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 11: to deal with faster edge rushers due to those length concerns. 823 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,800 Speaker 11: Similar Calvin Banks junior, they had a footwear concerns about 824 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 11: whether he'd be a better guard or tackle. And then, 825 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 11: like you guys were talking about the receivers for us 826 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 11: last year, I think a really good argument could be 827 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 11: made is it bad evaluation or bad development? You know, 828 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 11: giving experience of the coaching staff overall. 829 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 5: I would say both only because the guys that have 830 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 5: left here have not gone on, you know, Nikhil Harry 831 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 5: has not blossomed elsewhere. 832 00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 11: Yeah, as an example, I mean just just specific to 833 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 11: the guy last year, like Pok and Baker specifically, like 834 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 11: are we out on them because they were bad picks 835 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 11: or were they not developed properly? But I think the 836 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 11: wide receiver class is like very similar to the twenty 837 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 11: nineteen wide receiver class, where it's like it's not a 838 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 11: lot of great talent at the top, and there's a 839 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 11: lot of good guys in the second third round that 840 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 11: you could get. And I wonder what do you think 841 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 11: specifically about a guy like Jalen Lane who's got all 842 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 11: those physical tools and he's kind of got a better 843 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,840 Speaker 11: catch radius, bigger hands than guys like Kyle Williams or 844 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 11: Janalen Knowle and then maybe they get out of Miami. Ristreppa, 845 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 11: do you think he fell into Day three after running 846 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 11: that four eight three yesterday? And do you think that's 847 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 11: good for us in getting someone who could maybe fill 848 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 11: that role in like the fourth fifth round? And then 849 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 11: I wanted to know if you thought pretty safety was 850 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:53,280 Speaker 11: a sneaky knee for us, maybe someone specifically like Andrew mccoubaugh. 851 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 11: Mike Rabel's defenses in Tennessee always had kind of ball 852 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 11: hawking Kevin Byern safety, And I don't know if we 853 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 11: have that guy right now. So that's it. 854 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 2: Thanks Randy lot to digest there. 855 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, was like a four steven four eight four eight 856 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 3: three four eight three. 857 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, so they armand member would beat him. 858 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,840 Speaker 3: Put it to you that way, jeez, it's crazy. 859 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, there was a lot of stuff that was really 860 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 5: good in that call. So I don't want this one comment, 861 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 5: and this is not directed, was it Randy? Yeah, because 862 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,359 Speaker 5: he was he was really good with that call. Only 863 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,840 Speaker 5: Patriots fans could look at a wide receiver running a 864 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 5: four eight as a positive for the Patriots, only Patriots fans. 865 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 5: Is this good because now he drops lower in the 866 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 5: draft and we can get or is it bad that 867 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 5: he ran a four to eight three coming into the league, 868 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 5: So that means like in two years he's running like 869 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 5: a five second forty. 870 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 3: Right. 871 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 4: Yeah. 872 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 5: You don't get faster generally unless you're like the learning 873 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 5: nutrition at the NFL level. 874 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 4: I wanted to like Ristrepo at the Senior Bowl. I 875 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 4: went into it being like, this is going to be 876 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,879 Speaker 4: everybody does, oh WelCom in slot, and that poor kid 877 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 4: tried to separate on slot fades all week long and 878 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 4: just could not stack or like he couldn't run by anybody. 879 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,360 Speaker 4: I was like, this is gonna be one of the 880 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,280 Speaker 4: this is not. You know, he's a one level receiver. 881 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 4: You know he's gonna be quick hitters underneath. He can 882 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 4: run with the football after the catch, He's got good instincts, 883 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 4: good feel for zone coverage, all that andy. 884 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 5: I don't want to make it sound like that. I 885 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,440 Speaker 5: would say, oh, don't waste your time. You take a 886 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 5: flyer on him late round six, seventh round, whatever, and 887 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,840 Speaker 5: you get him. I saw his college production. I know 888 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 5: what he's done at Miami. He's been a good player 889 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 5: for them for a couple of years. So I wouldn't 890 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 5: say I'm out on him. I'm just saying I'm not 891 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:44,839 Speaker 5: like longing for a slow slot receiver. I think this 892 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,359 Speaker 5: team needs playmakers. If he comes in, he's just one 893 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,359 Speaker 5: of those guys. He's a football player. It doesn't matter 894 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 5: what his time speed is. 895 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:54,240 Speaker 4: Fine, what was his cam and all his short shuttle 896 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 4: also wasn't good well, So he just he just did 897 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 4: not test very He was a very. 898 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 5: Productive player at Miami, and I'm not dismissed with the 899 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 5: actual tape shows he caught a lot of passes for Miami. 900 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 5: And it wasn't just with cam Wood last year. He 901 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 5: was like that with quarterback issues prior to that at Miami. 902 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 2: All right, Alex is in DC. Hey, Alex, hey good? 903 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 13: What are you doing? 904 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 2: Good? 905 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 11: Good? 906 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 13: So I had some questions around thirty visits. 907 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 2: Okay, sorry you guys for a second. 908 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 13: Questions about thirty visits? What actually happens during a thirty visit? 909 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,959 Speaker 13: Do you think Rabe'll be using them differently this year? 910 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 13: And why haven't more been reported for the past? 911 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:42,240 Speaker 2: I think? Now, don't aren't these all public knowledge? Doesn't 912 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 2: the league publish thirty visits? No? 913 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:47,399 Speaker 4: No, Now, I would say the main thing with all 914 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 4: these things is getting to know the player. Rock fell asleep, 915 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 4: So you're really I mean, there are some football aspects. 916 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 4: They'll put them in the classroom and quiz them on 917 00:42:57,840 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 4: their side of the ball and have the coaches come 918 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 4: in and put them through a test like that. There 919 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 4: might be an on field you know, workout that goes on. 920 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 4: But I would say mainly you're trying to get to 921 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 4: know the player a little bit better, his personality, his temperament, 922 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,879 Speaker 4: the type of kid he is, you know, that court 923 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 4: sort of thing. And then as always, medicals like medicals 924 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,359 Speaker 4: are massive. You get them in the facility, you get 925 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 4: your own doctors, you get them, put them through medical testing. 926 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 2: You know. 927 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 4: So a lot of thirty visits are related to this 928 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,960 Speaker 4: player has an injury, and he's coming off an injury 929 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 4: or had a prior injury in college that was severe, 930 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,799 Speaker 4: and so they wanted this kid towards a cl two 931 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 4: years ago, and they want to check out his knee 932 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 4: and make sure that his knee is in good show. 933 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,399 Speaker 5: A good question though, that we haven't heard about any Yeah, 934 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 5: I've heard about a. 935 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 4: Couple of them, couple of running couples, and Ursery is 936 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 4: coming in for one. Reportedly a couple running backs still 937 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 4: and Samson oli Gordon are out there, But I haven't. 938 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,279 Speaker 5: I haven't seen much. I'm with Alex, I must have 939 00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 5: missed some of that. Maybe it was during my tournament 940 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 5: blackout here. 941 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 4: We also have to remember the big college pro days 942 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 4: still haven't happened yet or happening this week. So usually 943 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 4: those players don't go on visits until after their par. 944 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,279 Speaker 2: Every team must have to tell the league who they're 945 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 2: having visit because you're only allowed thirty yep. So I 946 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 2: wonder if that that information's out there. 947 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 5: And that doesn't include the local guys, right right? I 948 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,839 Speaker 5: don't you get free ones with those? Yeah? 949 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:29,800 Speaker 4: I don't think that they usually get to all thirty, 950 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 4: Like I don't think. I don't think. I think thirty 951 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 4: is a lot. And I you know, we've we've kind 952 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 4: of taken away top thirty too, because it's not really 953 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 4: the top thirty players. It's usually players all across the draft. 954 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, this day two and Day three guys visit 955 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 5: with two Just. 956 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 3: A question how you allocate those and guys you have 957 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 3: big questions on like we really feel like we need 958 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 3: to get But I was like the stories where they 959 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 3: didn't talk to me. I didn't even meet them, right, 960 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:55,840 Speaker 3: they just like my film when they drafted me. Those 961 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,279 Speaker 3: you know, those guys I feel like work out a 962 00:44:58,320 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 3: little bit. 963 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 4: Sometimes some sort of red flag with the prospect, whether 964 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 4: it's injury, character concerns, whatever the case may be. And 965 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 4: they have them in. 966 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, go out of the previous color. 967 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 3: I don't know if I necessarily agree. The twenty nineteen 968 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 3: were like twenty nineteen, it felt like there was a 969 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 3: jumble of late first, early second receivers. I mean a 970 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 3: lot of guys who have gone on to success, but 971 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 3: see guys with traits. But I don't know that. 972 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:28,800 Speaker 7: I don't see a lot of like this guy might. 973 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 3: Be a number one. Shoot, what's the one guy I'm 974 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 3: thinking of Arkansas No. 975 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 6: No. 976 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 3: One of those schools.

Let me 983 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,520 Speaker 5: make sure you about the draft shows I do. 984 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:54,720 Speaker 4: I do think this this wide receiver class is getting 985 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 4: a little bit too much hate. I don't think it's 986 00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 4: a great class at the top, but it's a pretty 987 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 4: deep class. I mean there's gonna be guys as always 988 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 4: that you know, go second day to early day three 989 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 4: that I think are going to be solid NFL players, 990 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 4: or I think they'm going to be stars like probably not, 991 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 4: but I think there's a there's more depth to the 992 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:15,839 Speaker 4: class and it's getting right out. 993 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:16,920 Speaker 2: I'll let you know in due time. 994 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:18,640 Speaker 5: I'll be looking forward to that. 995 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:24,400 Speaker 2: Yet, writes in Patriots picked for need and intangibles, and 996 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 2: that's how they ended up with the worst roster. I'm 997 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,800 Speaker 2: tired of hearing about intangibles. Talent wins games. The years 998 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 2: of Patriots winning with intangibles and do your job are 999 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 2: over and stop pretending like we're picking a running back 1000 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 2: or tight end at fourth overall Carter Hunter and if 1001 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 2: they're not there, you probably have to pick McMillan. 1002 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 4: Stop pretending. 1003 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,439 Speaker 5: So just to be clear, nobody is suggesting picking any 1004 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:51,279 Speaker 5: position if Carter or Hunter is available. I think we 1005 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 5: all three agree if one of those two is available, 1006 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:57,839 Speaker 5: like they're taking, they should take one of those two. 1007 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 5: So I would never suggest taking Aston Genty over Abdul Carter. No. 1008 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 3: And you asked earlier, Paul about Carter Hunter preferences, and 1009 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 3: I think I've all been lockstep on Carter. That would 1010 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:12,960 Speaker 3: be my preference me too, but I feel like Hunters 1011 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 3: give me. It's just the lack of attention on offense. 1012 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 3: I think so far, and that's why I'm getting a 1013 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 3: little itchy, Like I'm looking at the and really just 1014 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,399 Speaker 3: you know, it's a fair one edition receiver, and it's 1015 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:26,840 Speaker 3: a little because I also don't feel that they've really 1016 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 3: added a lot on defense. They've stabilized it, they've they've 1017 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 3: gotten the pieces in place. But for me, they need 1018 00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 3: to get the guys I've said it a couple of 1019 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 3: times now that are gonna make the ceiling, like the 1020 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,560 Speaker 3: next generation of guys that Yeah, these guys Harold Lander, 1021 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:42,359 Speaker 3: he he's a stopper, he can play, he'll be good, 1022 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 3: he'll be solid, but you need that young guy, that 1023 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 3: young third guy to come in, you know, and really 1024 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 3: push those guys and eventually be the go to guys there. 1025 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 3: You know they've they've got the baseline there, but. 1026 00:47:52,239 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 4: You're being greedy about your defense. I know I'm t's. 1027 00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 5: Critique because they have I've taken a lot of defensive 1028 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,359 Speaker 5: players and haven't really addressed the offense. I felt real 1029 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 5: sunshiny yesterday on the show because they were saying, you 1030 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:07,920 Speaker 5: know what, what about the neglect on offense, And I 1031 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:10,920 Speaker 5: just said, you can have these things be true with 1032 00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:15,240 Speaker 5: the same like I think the opportunity to pick guys 1033 00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 5: to phill holes presented itself on defense. I don't think 1034 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 5: it was an orchestrated Mike Rabel's defensive coach. He's only 1035 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,760 Speaker 5: going to do the defense and let the offense was available. 1036 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 5: Whatever I figured out, I don't feel there were a 1037 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:31,240 Speaker 5: lot of great options on offense that they now. They 1038 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:35,160 Speaker 5: absolutely could have gotten a wide receiver now probably wouldn't 1039 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 5: have just been by free agency. They might have had 1040 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 5: to get creative with the DK Metcalf or a Cooper 1041 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,280 Speaker 5: Cup or some you know, one of these kinds of guys, 1042 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:46,920 Speaker 5: you know, making a swinging a deal for somebody. But 1043 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:49,760 Speaker 5: the guys that were available that were the best players 1044 00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:52,719 Speaker 5: in my view, were on defense, and that's what they did. 1045 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:56,840 Speaker 2: David Maine, I know that if Carter or Hunter is 1046 00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 2: available for we probably can't pass them up, but I'm 1047 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:02,319 Speaker 2: secretly hoping that they're both taken so we're forced to 1048 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,839 Speaker 2: take Campbell. I personally believe that protecting quarterback is more 1049 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:09,880 Speaker 2: important than having a w R one H star receiver 1050 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 2: is worthless if Mat doesn't have time to throw him 1051 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 2: the ball. Asked Matt Stafford and Calvin Johnson about all 1052 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:19,719 Speaker 2: their Super Bowl wins, see Paul, even if Campbell ends 1053 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 2: up being a guard, he's like a Zach Martin. 1054 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:24,719 Speaker 5: Right, Why would you want to have a great quarterback 1055 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:28,239 Speaker 5: wide receiver combination because maybe he might not win the 1056 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 5: Super Bowl like the thirty one other teams. 1057 00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:33,320 Speaker 2: That don't Campbell like Zach Martin, still makes the line better. 1058 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:36,960 Speaker 2: And Phil Perry reported that he watched the LSU tapes 1059 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 2: with Dante Scarnekia and Scar said the guy is a 1060 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 2: tackle all day. 1061 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,279 Speaker 4: But I didn't know that Scar said that. 1062 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,959 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know why David Name would not. 1063 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,160 Speaker 4: I read the article that Phil wrote when he is 1064 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:53,799 Speaker 4: unless he said added that on a podcast. I don't 1065 00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:54,960 Speaker 4: listen to everything that's. 1066 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 3: Called burying the league. 1067 00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, right, But he didn't say that. And most of 1068 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:01,759 Speaker 4: the quotes I saw from Scar about this for more 1069 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 4: in generalities of In general, arm length is important because 1070 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:07,640 Speaker 4: of X, Y and Z and that sort of thing. 1071 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 5: But I just would caution that it's no more true 1072 00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 5: to say that a great wide receiver and quarterback are 1073 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:19,120 Speaker 5: useless without blocking as it would be to say great 1074 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:23,840 Speaker 5: blocking is a guarantee of success without the rest. I 1075 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 5: think there are plenty of really good tackles that toiled 1076 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 5: in that league for a long time on bad teams. 1077 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:34,799 Speaker 5: You know, Like I just you need everything. Like the 1078 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,440 Speaker 5: Eagles have a great offensive line, arguably the best in 1079 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 5: the league, if not the best. What else they got 1080 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:42,480 Speaker 5: If they didn't have anything else, would they have wonted? 1081 00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:46,760 Speaker 5: But just an offensive line. They have the best roster 1082 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 5: in the league. I mean, they have great weapons, you know, 1083 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,200 Speaker 5: at receiver, they have a great running back, they have 1084 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:56,600 Speaker 5: a really good quarterback, if not great, and the defense 1085 00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 5: made plays and they may play us all over the place. 1086 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 4: I just wondered, you know, to go back to the 1087 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 4: Carter Hunter conversation a little bit too. If you don't 1088 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:11,520 Speaker 4: address the offense, whether it's tackle or receiver, with the 1089 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 4: first pick in the draft, I think you're punting on 1090 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 4: that position until next year, because obviously you'll take somebody 1091 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 4: on Day two and it's another Caden Wallace esque dart 1092 00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 4: throw and you hope for the best. 1093 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,319 Speaker 5: Can it be better than that? Though? I don't know 1094 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:28,399 Speaker 5: if you like guys you know. 1095 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:31,680 Speaker 4: Or if you trade back to if you trade back 1096 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:34,360 Speaker 4: up into the first round, you know, if you trade 1097 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,680 Speaker 4: up until you know, probably into the twenties or maybe 1098 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 4: early thirty or earlier thirties, then maybe, but like you're 1099 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:41,880 Speaker 4: still not getting. 1100 00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 5: You're not getting it at thirty eight, is what you say, right, I. 1101 00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:45,479 Speaker 4: Don't think so, and I don't think you're getting both. 1102 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 4: Definitely not getting both. So both you can't get receiver 1103 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 4: and tackle. 1104 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:52,720 Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, I meant I meant like a tackle 1105 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,839 Speaker 5: like Matt Light. I'm thinking Matt Light. Can I get 1106 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 5: some Can I get Matt Light in this at thirty eight? 1107 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 5: I think, which maybe I'm not Maybe you know, I'm 1108 00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:05,279 Speaker 5: not expecting mattl Like to step in as a rookie 1109 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 5: and do what he did in two thousand and one, 1110 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:09,759 Speaker 5: which would be a starting caliber yeh tackle for them 1111 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 5: right out of the shoot. But can you have your 1112 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 5: tackle of the future at thirty eight? 1113 00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,279 Speaker 4: I don't think it's tough. It all depends on when 1114 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:21,120 Speaker 4: that connorly Ersery Josh Simmons run happens like those three 1115 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 4: guys last year. 1116 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:23,879 Speaker 5: It would have been no because last year that run 1117 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 5: happened early correct and the Patriots weren't able to get in. 1118 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:29,800 Speaker 4: That's my fear. So Marius Mims started the run at eighteen. 1119 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 4: Marus Mims goes Tyler Geiton goes. Those two couple of 1120 00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:35,400 Speaker 4: guys go in the first end of the first round. 1121 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 4: Once that run stops in this draft, that's big. The 1122 00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:45,680 Speaker 4: cliff drops to the next group of tackles. So now 1123 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:49,239 Speaker 4: you're talking about Trapilo, who's really a right tackle. You're 1124 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 4: talking about Anthony Belton from NC State, who's probably a 1125 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,920 Speaker 4: third or fourth round pick. You know, in most drafts, 1126 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,400 Speaker 4: like you really have that drop off to what was 1127 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 4: last year was you know, Patrick Paul Kingsley, Sue Mattia, 1128 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:04,879 Speaker 4: Roger Rosegard, and Kayden Wallace and uh, the only one 1129 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:07,400 Speaker 4: that really played and played well was the kid in 1130 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:08,880 Speaker 4: Washington was Brandon Coleman. 1131 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,960 Speaker 5: And now guard wasn't bad, but he played guard. Oh 1132 00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:12,560 Speaker 5: that's true. 1133 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:16,600 Speaker 4: So you know that that's that's where you're at right now. 1134 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 4: If you don't go tackle a receiver with the first pick, 1135 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 4: I just I don't know how you get that in 1136 00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:23,360 Speaker 4: this tract. 1137 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:27,919 Speaker 5: I'm okay if you take a tackle at thirty eight. Again, 1138 00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:30,040 Speaker 5: I understand everything you even just said, But if you've 1139 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:31,879 Speaker 5: got to tackle at thirty eight, I'm okay. If he's 1140 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:34,959 Speaker 5: not plug and play. I know everybody thinks that every 1141 00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:37,680 Speaker 5: hole that you know, they had like literally, fifteen out 1142 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,960 Speaker 5: of the twenty two spots are open, and the Patriots 1143 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 5: were expected to fill every single one of them with 1144 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:46,359 Speaker 5: a frontline player. I am not expecting that, and I'm 1145 00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 5: not going to be disappointed if they're not able to 1146 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:50,360 Speaker 5: do that. So it doesn't need to be a plug 1147 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 5: and play left tackle, but can it be a guy 1148 00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:56,279 Speaker 5: that Okay, he's going to be my left tackle. He's 1149 00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:58,080 Speaker 5: not quite ready yet, but he's going to be my 1150 00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:00,680 Speaker 5: left tackle. Maybe by the middle of this season he's 1151 00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:04,959 Speaker 5: emerging as the starter, and you know, heading into twenty six, 1152 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,919 Speaker 5: that's my left tackle. I'm okay with that. A lot 1153 00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:10,680 Speaker 5: of fans won't be. They're like, we've been waiting for 1154 00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,200 Speaker 5: five years, you know, what are we doing? What? What 1155 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,719 Speaker 5: are they waiting for on offense? Blah blah blah blah blah. 1156 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:16,360 Speaker 5: I'm okay with that. 1157 00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:18,239 Speaker 3: That goes back to need, though, and I feel like 1158 00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:20,799 Speaker 3: at that point in the draft, you could get a 1159 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:25,359 Speaker 3: plug and play outside linebacker, running back like no, So 1160 00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 3: that's how you're kind of weighing it, like, Yeah, we're 1161 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 3: gonna try to develop this guy into a need that 1162 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 3: we really have, or there's definitely gonna be running back. 1163 00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 3: Sitting there at thirty eight that you know, I mean, 1164 00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 3: maybe that's even too soon for one of the running backs. 1165 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,879 Speaker 3: But I'd say defensive end, outside linebacker, that position group 1166 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:43,960 Speaker 3: that's really sure. That's the spot for this Red. 1167 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:45,600 Speaker 2: In my mind, I think you get a wide receiver 1168 00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:46,840 Speaker 2: in the second round. 1169 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:49,319 Speaker 4: That you could, you could, but if you go yeah, 1170 00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 4: but if you go at thirty eight, if you if 1171 00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:53,799 Speaker 4: you take a tackler receiver, I just don't think that 1172 00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,040 Speaker 4: you can now count on sixty nine and seventy seven 1173 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:57,959 Speaker 4: filling the other hole that you don't draft. 1174 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,840 Speaker 5: No, no, But again I'm okay with I'm okay with 1175 00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:04,160 Speaker 5: there still being a hole right after this year. 1176 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:07,040 Speaker 4: I think that in the third round you can find 1177 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 4: a running back that's going to contribute. You can find 1178 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:11,600 Speaker 4: a pass rusher that can contribute, you can find a 1179 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:15,319 Speaker 4: defensive tackle that can contribute. That that those positions are 1180 00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 4: where the depth is in this draft. So like at 1181 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:19,919 Speaker 4: thirty eight, my fear is that they're going to find 1182 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:24,719 Speaker 4: themselves in a defensive line sort of party, right Like 1183 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:26,440 Speaker 4: there's just going to be defensive lineman and an ed 1184 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,200 Speaker 4: dreshers just flying off the board at that point in 1185 00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 4: the draft, and everybody's going to be waiting on tackle 1186 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,279 Speaker 4: and waiting on receiver because there aren't any that are 1187 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:35,760 Speaker 4: worth picking. 1188 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:39,200 Speaker 5: But I get that, and I'm okay with it. 1189 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:40,600 Speaker 4: The receive. 1190 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:42,359 Speaker 5: If they get a receiver in the third round, why 1191 00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:45,000 Speaker 5: can't I get a receiver who can contribute? Yes, I understand. 1192 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:47,680 Speaker 5: I still have my hole with that number one receiver spot. 1193 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:48,440 Speaker 10: You know. 1194 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 5: Can I think if they signed Stefan Diggs, who was 1195 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:53,279 Speaker 5: here last week, I still think they have a hole 1196 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 5: with the number one receiver spot. Like I'm not. I 1197 00:55:56,440 --> 00:56:00,160 Speaker 5: don't think that's going to get filled this season. But 1198 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:02,719 Speaker 5: they need to be in the business of getting better 1199 00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:05,759 Speaker 5: players on the roster. Yeah, somehow they need to. They 1200 00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:07,720 Speaker 5: need to improve that the overall talent. 1201 00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:08,400 Speaker 4: What would you do? 1202 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:10,760 Speaker 3: Like, that's what do you do a receiver? 1203 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 2: Though? 1204 00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:13,399 Speaker 3: Like I totally curd your point which you just made. 1205 00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:15,880 Speaker 3: And is it worth draft taking a flyer on a 1206 00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 3: guy when you've already got three four guys on the wall. 1207 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:19,680 Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying. I don't want to take to 1208 00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:23,279 Speaker 5: me a flyer is taking McMillan at four. Well, I 1209 00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:25,080 Speaker 5: just my need I have. I had a need for 1210 00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:27,160 Speaker 5: number one receiver. I took the fourth pick of the draft. Well, 1211 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:28,759 Speaker 5: if you can't play, I haven't filled the role. 1212 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 4: I think that's a little exaggeration. But if he's not 1213 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,040 Speaker 4: good enough to be that guy, right, But McMillan's more 1214 00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 4: than a flyer. Like McMillan, you're. 1215 00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:37,799 Speaker 5: I don't see a lot of people that think he's 1216 00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 5: worthy of a top five pick. 1217 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:40,759 Speaker 4: I don't know about if he's worthy of a top 1218 00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,320 Speaker 4: five pick. But he's a top ten talent in this class, 1219 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:45,319 Speaker 4: So like you're not. That's not a to me. A 1220 00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,680 Speaker 4: flyer is like Pop Douglas was a flyer. 1221 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 5: No, no, no, you know. 1222 00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:53,360 Speaker 4: Was a flyer, right, Like those guys are are a lottery. 1223 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:55,399 Speaker 5: I just don't think that if you take McMillan, you're 1224 00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:59,040 Speaker 5: your your problems are solved at the top of the wife. 1225 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 3: You still need to get fast. 1226 00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,760 Speaker 2: Kyler Pembroke. If I remember correctly, on one of Paul's shows, 1227 00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 2: they said, Travis Hunter isn't fast, Evan deuce, You guys 1228 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 2: are all ball knowers. Is this fact or crap? 1229 00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:12,760 Speaker 4: I have no comment. 1230 00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:13,680 Speaker 3: He looks fast. 1231 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:14,359 Speaker 2: Why don't you have a. 1232 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:15,440 Speaker 5: Comment think he's fast or not? 1233 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 4: Because if you like, did you have you watch the 1234 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:18,520 Speaker 4: guy play. 1235 00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:20,600 Speaker 2: I mean, he's definitely got burst. 1236 00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 4: He's got one of the he's got probably one of 1237 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:25,800 Speaker 4: the best play speeds in the entire draft. Like he's 1238 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:28,040 Speaker 4: I don't know, if you put him on a stop watch, 1239 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:29,320 Speaker 4: if he was going to run a four to two, 1240 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 4: I don't know. But when you watch him play, I 1241 00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 4: mean he ran away from guys. Yeah. 1242 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 5: I like him better as a corner than a wide receiver, 1243 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,680 Speaker 5: But I think the Patriots would need to use him 1244 00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 5: at wide receiver if they did it. If they did 1245 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 5: it that way, I feel like the little that I 1246 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:48,040 Speaker 5: watched him, he's the best athlete on the field. Yeah, 1247 00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 5: I don't think that'll be the case in the NFL, 1248 00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:51,880 Speaker 5: So I worry a little bit about him as a 1249 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 5: wide receiver. 1250 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 2: Would would we be talking any differently about Travis Hunter 1251 00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:58,880 Speaker 2: if he was playing in the SEC his career? 1252 00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, if he did that in the SEC, yeah, I 1253 00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:03,040 Speaker 5: would probably think better of him. 1254 00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 4: I would just might. 1255 00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:05,600 Speaker 2: And then would he have been able to do that 1256 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:06,680 Speaker 2: in the SEC. 1257 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:09,200 Speaker 5: Well, I have no idea he's going to try to 1258 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:10,600 Speaker 5: do it in the NFL, evidently. 1259 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 4: I just wonder if he, you know, would like you 1260 00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:16,120 Speaker 4: mentioned some of the stuff out there about him as 1261 00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:18,520 Speaker 4: a receiver, that he's a little raw and all that 1262 00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:20,360 Speaker 4: kind of stuff. Well, I think we have to keep 1263 00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 4: in mind he didn't practice or focus on playing wide 1264 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 4: receiver in college, so he played his focus was really 1265 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 4: more on corner and he was just so damn talented 1266 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 4: playing a receiver. That's just how they used him at Colorado. 1267 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:39,400 Speaker 4: So if he's not necessarily sole focused, but if ninety 1268 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:42,480 Speaker 4: percent of his effort is on training at wide receiver 1269 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:45,440 Speaker 4: athlete and he's already at this level, you know, this 1270 00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 4: floor of a wide receiver just be off his physical gifts. 1271 00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:52,360 Speaker 2: Does Big Head like him, I don't know, because I 1272 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:54,320 Speaker 2: would think that he'd be in love with him, like 1273 00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:58,360 Speaker 2: he's Bo Jackson, you know, type of all around athlete. 1274 00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:00,080 Speaker 5: Do any Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I 1275 00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 5: haven't really heard enough from from Andy to know what 1276 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:04,040 Speaker 5: he thinks about him. But that will be another one. 1277 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:06,720 Speaker 5: Going back to the combine, he weighed in I think 1278 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:07,600 Speaker 5: at one eighty eight. 1279 00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:09,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, six feet one eighty. 1280 00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:10,760 Speaker 5: On a lot of people say how small he is. 1281 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:12,840 Speaker 5: I don't think there's anything wrong with one eighty eight. 1282 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 5: Entering the league. He's going to get a little bigger 1283 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:19,120 Speaker 5: than that again, because Mike skinless chicken, you learn nutrition 1284 00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 5: at the NFL level. Right, he'll get a little bit 1285 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,200 Speaker 5: bigger than But like, it's not like he's one sixty 1286 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:26,439 Speaker 5: one eighty eight is that's that's a sturdy enough frame 1287 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 5: he has. 1288 00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 4: He is basically Garrett Wilson from a measurable standpoint, you know, 1289 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,680 Speaker 4: in terms of height and weight, they basically measured in 1290 00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 4: around the same. 1291 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:38,400 Speaker 5: I had said yesterday on Sunshine that if he's available, 1292 00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:40,080 Speaker 5: I don't see how the Patriots could pass him up, 1293 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 5: and you wouldn't believe the pushback. 1294 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 3: I could really really. 1295 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 5: Like I said something really outside of the realm of. 1296 00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:50,560 Speaker 2: Robin Coventry might snuck in a quiet but important question. 1297 00:59:51,080 --> 00:59:54,160 Speaker 2: When measuring arms, what are they measuring from? Wouldn't it 1298 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,440 Speaker 2: be easier to measure from the fingertip of the left 1299 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:58,960 Speaker 2: hand to the fingertip of the right hand? I E 1300 00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:02,360 Speaker 2: his wingspan, that's wingspan, that's measure length. What if he's 1301 01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:04,240 Speaker 2: got short arms but a broad chest. 1302 01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:05,200 Speaker 5: Well, they do both. 1303 01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 2: Sign the kid and stick them on a rack. 1304 01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:10,919 Speaker 5: They do both, and he was exceptionally short in both. Ay, 1305 01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:14,080 Speaker 5: b it doesn't matter what you're actually doing, they're all 1306 01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:16,920 Speaker 5: they would all be doing it the same. So if 1307 01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:19,840 Speaker 5: one guy has thirty two inch arms and another guy 1308 01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:21,800 Speaker 5: is thirty four inch arms, but then you measure it 1309 01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:23,439 Speaker 5: from a different spot, well, the other guy is still 1310 01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 5: going to be two inches longer, right, So what's the difference. 1311 01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:31,840 Speaker 4: He has a very narrow chest. 1312 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:34,920 Speaker 2: As well, which is awesome the way he has a 1313 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:35,640 Speaker 2: narrow chest. 1314 01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 4: Yes, because his wingspan is narrow, so his upper body 1315 01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:42,560 Speaker 4: is is not. His wingspans not long, so his shoulder 1316 01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:43,120 Speaker 4: to shoulder. 1317 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 5: I'm just going by what I read. All this stuff 1318 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:48,560 Speaker 5: is all of this stuff is not opinion by me. 1319 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:50,840 Speaker 5: I'm just going off of what I read. I've heard 1320 01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:54,320 Speaker 5: that the wingspan in particular is like among the shortest ever. 1321 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:56,320 Speaker 5: It is smallest ever for that position. 1322 01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 4: It is that this is the first prospect that I 1323 01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:03,720 Speaker 4: can remember where we're talking about his wingspan because. 1324 01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:04,960 Speaker 5: It was so exceptionally small. 1325 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 4: But but it's just weird because it's never been relevant in. 1326 01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:11,480 Speaker 2: Relation to his wingspan. Does he have long arms. 1327 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:15,040 Speaker 4: That I don't know, but he's got a short wingspan. 1328 01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:18,200 Speaker 3: Forearms, lo, I see what you did. How much does 1329 01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:20,560 Speaker 3: just know about the will Campbell Armley country. I bet 1330 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:22,400 Speaker 3: this has bled over into your personal life, hasn't. 1331 01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 4: This is the point of the draft where I do 1332 01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:25,680 Speaker 4: start to get a little annoyed. 1333 01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:28,320 Speaker 5: So do you be talking the phone with Alex and 1334 01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:30,560 Speaker 5: like Alex, I just don't know.

Let's 1391 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 6: be honest, it's the tribute the retirement ceremony for Tom Brady. 1392 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:24,960 Speaker 6: And you know, it was an incredible start to the 1393 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:27,280 Speaker 6: ceremonies last night when we all got together, a bunch 1394 01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:30,200 Speaker 6: of teammates, old teammates and familiar faces coming back. So 1395 01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:32,840 Speaker 6: we had a blast last night. We're looking to continue 1396 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:33,240 Speaker 6: it tonight. 1397 01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:35,840 Speaker 16: You're a busy man with a big family, with a 1398 01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:39,160 Speaker 16: lot of responsibilities and everything like that. So it's not 1399 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:41,680 Speaker 16: the easiest thing to sort of I'm going to drop 1400 01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 16: everything I'm doing. But was it and I'm sure so, 1401 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 16: I mean, I don't want to answer it for you. Challenging, 1402 01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:49,600 Speaker 16: But was it an easy decision to make that I 1403 01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:50,320 Speaker 16: wanted to be here? 1404 01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 6: It was challenging, but it was definitely an easy decision 1405 01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 6: to make. I mean, Tom's a close friend of mine. 1406 01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:59,080 Speaker 6: He's played an important role in my development when I 1407 01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 6: was young, and throughout the years we've stayed close. And 1408 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,640 Speaker 6: just the fact that we get an opportunity to celebrate 1409 01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 6: him tonight and send him send him out in the 1410 01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:10,040 Speaker 6: proper fashion, and it'll be it'll be a fun, fun 1411 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:11,040 Speaker 6: experience for everybody. 1412 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:14,400 Speaker 5: You talked about the event that you did on Tuesday night, 1413 01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 5: any particular teammate that maybe you hadn't seen and you're like, wow, 1414 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:20,040 Speaker 5: it was great to catch out. I'm sure there was 1415 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:22,919 Speaker 5: a lot of them, but some one individually that stood out. 1416 01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:24,880 Speaker 10: You know, there's not one individual. 1417 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 6: The cool part about it is the thing that you 1418 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:29,440 Speaker 6: miss motes, and we talked about this is when you 1419 01:05:29,560 --> 01:05:32,000 Speaker 6: leave the game, you miss that locker room, and you 1420 01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:35,880 Speaker 6: had Logan Mankins, Matt Lay, Dan Cope and Lonnie Pax 1421 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,680 Speaker 6: and Kevin Fox, Dion Branch, all these guys that you've 1422 01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:42,600 Speaker 6: had these incredible experiences with, and we played together, we 1423 01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:45,600 Speaker 6: competed together. But to come back all and get into 1424 01:05:45,640 --> 01:05:48,960 Speaker 6: one room and be able to see those guys and 1425 01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:51,400 Speaker 6: pick up where we left off and tell funny stories 1426 01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:53,520 Speaker 6: and old jokes, that's what it's all about, and that 1427 01:05:53,640 --> 01:05:57,439 Speaker 6: it's the camaraderie that you really don't experience in other 1428 01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:00,240 Speaker 6: walks of life, but you do in that locker room. 1429 01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:01,520 Speaker 10: And so it's pretty unique. 1430 01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:05,000 Speaker 16: All right, let's start where it started in two thousand 1431 01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:07,400 Speaker 16: and five, and here's a guy who played one of 1432 01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 16: the best programs in all college football. You didn't get 1433 01:06:10,280 --> 01:06:11,520 Speaker 16: a chance to play a lot. 1434 01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:12,560 Speaker 2: What were your. 1435 01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:16,680 Speaker 16: What realistically, Matt, did you think was going to happen 1436 01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 16: as you entered the draft that year? 1437 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:21,640 Speaker 6: Honestly, I was just hoping to catch on as a 1438 01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:24,600 Speaker 6: free agent and prove myself, maybe even get in a 1439 01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:27,880 Speaker 6: practice because my expectations were, Hey, if I can get in, 1440 01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:31,120 Speaker 6: hopefully I can get a chance to prove myself. And 1441 01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 6: throughout the process I had a good Pro Day and 1442 01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:35,280 Speaker 6: all that stuff, and I had some workouts for about 1443 01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 6: five different teams, and I just thought, you know, there 1444 01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:40,840 Speaker 6: is potential here that I will be a free agent somewhere. 1445 01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:43,880 Speaker 6: And then all of a sudden, that last day of 1446 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:45,760 Speaker 6: the draft, I get a phone call. I was sitting 1447 01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:47,720 Speaker 6: down at my agency's like, look, free agency is gonna 1448 01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:50,080 Speaker 6: happen quick. We got to be prepared. We're getting fucked. 1449 01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:52,280 Speaker 6: We're started to field some phone calls from different teams, 1450 01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,240 Speaker 6: and next thing I know, Coach Belichick's on the line 1451 01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:58,680 Speaker 6: and saying, hey, Matt, welcome to the New England Patriots. 1452 01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:00,320 Speaker 6: We're going to take you next in the NFL Draft. 1453 01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:02,480 Speaker 6: And my jawge is dropped. I kind of even had 1454 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:04,960 Speaker 6: to ask him, are you messing with me? Because I 1455 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:07,440 Speaker 6: didn't think it was realistic, right, I mean, for a 1456 01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 6: guy that threw I think it was thirty two total 1457 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,280 Speaker 6: passes in college, I backed up to Heisman Trophy winners, 1458 01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:15,040 Speaker 6: which probably you know, kind of helped me along the 1459 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:17,200 Speaker 6: way in terms of the perception of who I could 1460 01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:19,880 Speaker 6: potentially be. But there wasn't any tape out there, and 1461 01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:21,880 Speaker 6: so the fact that they took a shot on me 1462 01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:25,000 Speaker 6: and gave me an opportunity, I'd be forever, forever grateful. 1463 01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:27,560 Speaker 5: So when you got drafted, you know, I was we 1464 01:07:27,560 --> 01:07:29,920 Speaker 5: were still doing the newspaper back then, Matt, That's how 1465 01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:32,920 Speaker 5: long ago it was. But you know, I had your 1466 01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:36,240 Speaker 5: draft profile that year and I called Pete Carroll, who 1467 01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:39,120 Speaker 5: was the head coach here my first year working for 1468 01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:41,479 Speaker 5: Patriots dot Com, and I talked to Pete a little 1469 01:07:41,480 --> 01:07:46,280 Speaker 5: bit and he gushed about how agonizing the decision was 1470 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:48,760 Speaker 5: between you and Matt Leiner, and how you guys had 1471 01:07:48,760 --> 01:07:51,520 Speaker 5: sort of toggled back and forth, and you know, depending 1472 01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:54,000 Speaker 5: on the day that he woke up, he was convinced 1473 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:55,800 Speaker 5: you with the guy right, and then it was him, 1474 01:07:55,840 --> 01:07:57,840 Speaker 5: and then it was you. And do you think that 1475 01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:00,880 Speaker 5: maybe Pete talked to a lot of ent guys, maybe 1476 01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 5: with his obviously extensive experience, and maybe that sort of 1477 01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:05,880 Speaker 5: helped give you a little bit of a push. 1478 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,240 Speaker 6: I absolutely think he had an influence on just the 1479 01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:13,280 Speaker 6: ability to know so many different people from a personnel standpoint. 1480 01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:14,840 Speaker 10: And then at the same time, I. 1481 01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 6: Remember on the pro day, before we started our pro day, 1482 01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:19,920 Speaker 6: he would go in and speak to all the scouts 1483 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:24,439 Speaker 6: individually about each guy. And so I know that we 1484 01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:27,160 Speaker 6: always had a good relationship, and as agonizing as it 1485 01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 6: was for him, it was more agonizing for me to 1486 01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:31,040 Speaker 6: sit there and have to wait and say, you know, 1487 01:08:31,400 --> 01:08:34,760 Speaker 6: I can't the week before season getting called into that 1488 01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:37,800 Speaker 6: office and getting the devastating news that what you've been 1489 01:08:37,840 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 6: working for, you've been the backup for three years behind Carson. 1490 01:08:40,720 --> 01:08:42,680 Speaker 6: This was I felt like it was my time to go. 1491 01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,000 Speaker 6: And then to be told, look, we're going to go 1492 01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:47,280 Speaker 6: with line Art to start, but if he falters it 1493 01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:49,720 Speaker 6: all and you know, he took off that first game 1494 01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 6: with like a rocket ship and we go beat Auburn, 1495 01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:53,640 Speaker 6: and then I was like, man, what am I going 1496 01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:53,920 Speaker 6: to do? 1497 01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:55,080 Speaker 10: So I stuck playing. 1498 01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 6: I went and switched over, played a little tight end 1499 01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:59,599 Speaker 6: that year, played on special teams, did all these different 1500 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:02,120 Speaker 6: things because I wanted to play and be a part 1501 01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:03,400 Speaker 6: of it.

So he kind of took me 1529 01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:07,720 Speaker 6: under his wing at that point, and from that point on, 1530 01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:08,679 Speaker 6: for the next four years. 1531 01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:10,840 Speaker 10: We worked out every day with each other, we were 1532 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:11,559 Speaker 10: in every meeting. 1533 01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:15,080 Speaker 6: But for me, it was just incredible to watch the 1534 01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:19,080 Speaker 6: professionalism day in and day out and his leadership. And 1535 01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:21,080 Speaker 6: it was not just with his words, but it was 1536 01:10:21,120 --> 01:10:24,439 Speaker 6: with his actions. It's how he took care of himself, 1537 01:10:24,479 --> 01:10:27,679 Speaker 6: it's how he interacted with his teammates, how he treated 1538 01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:29,439 Speaker 6: one guy because he thought he could get the most 1539 01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:31,680 Speaker 6: out of this guy like Welker, for instance, he could 1540 01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:33,960 Speaker 6: yell at him all day long and Welker would just 1541 01:10:34,040 --> 01:10:36,160 Speaker 6: continue to go, you know. And then there's other guys 1542 01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:38,800 Speaker 6: that maybe like a raindy Moss, that he'd sit there 1543 01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:40,960 Speaker 6: in the locker after practice and just have a general 1544 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 6: discussion about stuff because how he approached people was different 1545 01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:48,600 Speaker 6: based on their personality and the relationships. 1546 01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:50,080 Speaker 10: So it was just a. 1547 01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:53,639 Speaker 6: Masterclass in being a professional quarterback. And then to watch 1548 01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:56,480 Speaker 6: what he did week in and week out was just astounding. 1549 01:10:56,720 --> 01:10:58,639 Speaker 5: So you get to be part of that room with, 1550 01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:01,000 Speaker 5: you know, the best that's ever done it, and you 1551 01:11:01,040 --> 01:11:03,800 Speaker 5: also get to be coached by a guy who a 1552 01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:05,720 Speaker 5: lot of people think is the best who's ever done it. 1553 01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:09,840 Speaker 5: What do you remember about Bill specifically?

Just a couple quick insights. If it 1711 01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:13,439 Speaker 17: were me and it was picked four, I would either 1712 01:18:13,520 --> 01:18:18,600 Speaker 17: go Hunter, Carter, Campbell, Graham, and if neither one of 1713 01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:24,879 Speaker 17: those players were available, I would try to get Coaston 1714 01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:29,120 Speaker 17: Loveland simply because he'll be great with Drake. And then 1715 01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:32,320 Speaker 17: I don't know about that North Dakota state blocker. Where 1716 01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:36,040 Speaker 17: are you all anticipating he'll be taken? Because can we 1717 01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:39,439 Speaker 17: get back up into the first round and get. 1718 01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:43,320 Speaker 4: Him, Well, he's a guard, yeah, talking about Gray's Abel, 1719 01:18:43,640 --> 01:18:47,760 Speaker 4: who's fantastic. He's going to play guard though at the 1720 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:50,519 Speaker 4: next level, and he's going to be a top twenty, 1721 01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:54,240 Speaker 4: top twenty five pick. I think in this class, really 1722 01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:58,920 Speaker 4: really really really strong pre draft process starting at the 1723 01:18:58,960 --> 01:19:03,000 Speaker 4: Senior Bowl just to absolutely skyrocketed up the board since then. 1724 01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:06,120 Speaker 4: So good player, really good football player. 1725 01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:09,880 Speaker 13: Then you don't think we'll get a chance. He won't 1726 01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:11,559 Speaker 13: even fit in our offense. 1727 01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:14,240 Speaker 4: Then no, I don't think it's not. He's just a guard. 1728 01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:17,559 Speaker 4: You know, he's we talk about Will Campbell's arm length 1729 01:19:17,680 --> 01:19:20,040 Speaker 4: like Gray's abels like closer to thirty two. You know, 1730 01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:23,800 Speaker 4: he's really gonna there's no question, like, there's no there's 1731 01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:27,679 Speaker 4: debate with him. He's moving inside at the Senior Bowl 1732 01:19:27,840 --> 01:19:30,880 Speaker 4: and then where he practiced all three spots actually center 1733 01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:31,679 Speaker 4: as well. 1734 01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,880 Speaker 17: Okay, then, well I was hoping because he did look 1735 01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:39,040 Speaker 17: like the sure bet as far as the blocker goes. 1736 01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:42,120 Speaker 17: And then the running back. I still hope we get 1737 01:19:42,160 --> 01:19:47,000 Speaker 17: Donovan Edwards and then Jenkins the other Higo State running back, 1738 01:19:48,360 --> 01:19:52,280 Speaker 17: and then a wide receiver Isaiah Bond from Texas. 1739 01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:54,679 Speaker 3: Is that oh yeah, we like him. 1740 01:19:54,760 --> 01:19:58,720 Speaker 13: And then made me back back or. 1741 01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:02,679 Speaker 3: Yeah best jack? 1742 01:20:03,800 --> 01:20:08,680 Speaker 2: Okay, well all right thanks, Yeah, I don't know. 1743 01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:11,320 Speaker 5: Perhaps branching out a little bit, only five Michigan guys 1744 01:20:11,439 --> 01:20:14,719 Speaker 5: that I expected Isaiah Bond was was that was outside 1745 01:20:14,760 --> 01:20:15,160 Speaker 5: the box. 1746 01:20:15,240 --> 01:20:17,519 Speaker 4: Everybody's all over the place with Isaiah Bond. You either 1747 01:20:17,520 --> 01:20:20,760 Speaker 4: love him or you hate him. There's no there's no consensus. Uh. 1748 01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:25,639 Speaker 4: He's obviously got great, great speed, but he never really 1749 01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:28,080 Speaker 4: realized the potential in college, like he had a really 1750 01:20:28,120 --> 01:20:30,679 Speaker 4: good year at Alabama a couple of years ago, looked 1751 01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:33,200 Speaker 4: like the next Jalen Waddle, like was just moving at 1752 01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:35,960 Speaker 4: a different speed than everybody else on the field, and 1753 01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:40,400 Speaker 4: the production just never really took off between Alabama and Texas. 1754 01:20:40,479 --> 01:20:44,240 Speaker 4: So that that's Isaiah Bond. But he mentioned Judkins. I've 1755 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:47,679 Speaker 4: watched all these running backs recently. I actually like Treyvon Henderson, 1756 01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:50,400 Speaker 4: the other Ohio State back, a little bit better. But 1757 01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:53,560 Speaker 4: both those guys can play. They'll be second round picks. 1758 01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:56,559 Speaker 2: Curtis and Saint Louis with a year after twenty twenty four. 1759 01:20:56,760 --> 01:21:00,360 Speaker 2: Question for Paul, would you have rather taken say one 1760 01:21:00,400 --> 01:21:04,559 Speaker 2: of Marvin Harrison, Junior Malik Neighbors or Joe alt impaired 1761 01:21:04,600 --> 01:21:08,599 Speaker 2: them with say Shador Sanders or one of this year's 1762 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:13,000 Speaker 2: free agent veteran quarterbacks that were available, or would you 1763 01:21:13,000 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 2: have still taken Drake and be in the current position 1764 01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:19,720 Speaker 2: with the potential options at tackle and wide receivers. So 1765 01:21:19,800 --> 01:21:20,880 Speaker 2: let me get it, so. 1766 01:21:20,920 --> 01:21:23,800 Speaker 5: Last year, be I would take b you would take 1767 01:21:23,840 --> 01:21:25,960 Speaker 5: I would rather have I would rather feel good about 1768 01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:29,160 Speaker 5: my quarterback situation than be searching for it, because I 1769 01:21:29,160 --> 01:21:30,960 Speaker 5: think there's a lot of teams that have good talent 1770 01:21:31,120 --> 01:21:33,160 Speaker 5: and don't have an answer a quarterback that are not 1771 01:21:33,360 --> 01:21:37,879 Speaker 5: very good. Yeah, they're just okay? And how see Pittsburgh Steelers. 1772 01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:39,760 Speaker 3: Do you not want to be sitting here with Joe 1773 01:21:39,840 --> 01:21:42,080 Speaker 3: Alt and trying to figure out, Please Russell Wilson come 1774 01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:42,599 Speaker 3: to New England? 1775 01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:42,800 Speaker 10: Right? 1776 01:21:42,960 --> 01:21:45,120 Speaker 5: Save us? And and by the way, if he comes, 1777 01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:49,840 Speaker 5: he's not saving you. Yeah, Like the the chances are 1778 01:21:50,280 --> 01:21:54,320 Speaker 5: much greater that Drake may becomes an All Pro and 1779 01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:57,599 Speaker 5: that saves you than it is of plugging some veteran 1780 01:21:57,640 --> 01:22:02,439 Speaker 5: in or relying on Shador. In my view, I just 1781 01:22:02,439 --> 01:22:04,479 Speaker 5: don't feel like those quarterbacks are as good as. 1782 01:22:04,320 --> 01:22:08,400 Speaker 3: The class from last Jameis Winston Giants right, not even close. 1783 01:22:09,040 --> 01:22:12,519 Speaker 2: Second question, Evan, Yes, with the addition of Marcus Epps, 1784 01:22:13,240 --> 01:22:15,200 Speaker 2: do you feel he can be a true safety in 1785 01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:18,639 Speaker 2: Rabel's defense or would he be more in the box? 1786 01:22:18,760 --> 01:22:20,559 Speaker 2: And who do you feel he would pair better with? 1787 01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:23,960 Speaker 2: Duggars or Peppers? Also, could you see the Patriots moving 1788 01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:25,200 Speaker 2: on from one of those guys? 1789 01:22:26,439 --> 01:22:30,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, I I think as a flyer, I'm not ready 1790 01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:33,280 Speaker 4: to de pencil him in anyway coming off an injury. 1791 01:22:34,680 --> 01:22:36,840 Speaker 4: You know, he's a good I would say probably more 1792 01:22:36,840 --> 01:22:38,840 Speaker 4: of a free safety, like somebody that's gonna play deep 1793 01:22:38,840 --> 01:22:41,360 Speaker 4: a little bit more. But he's pretty versatile, you know 1794 01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:44,679 Speaker 4: when he was healthy and playing well. But I'm gonna 1795 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:46,240 Speaker 4: have to see it in training camp with him, and 1796 01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:49,080 Speaker 4: I think you know you have him. They still have 1797 01:22:49,200 --> 01:22:51,160 Speaker 4: Jalen Hawkins brought him by him back. 1798 01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:53,040 Speaker 3: The same time too, similar kind of player too. 1799 01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:54,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I think one of those two guys will 1800 01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:57,320 Speaker 4: probably end up winning a spot. I don't think they 1801 01:22:57,439 --> 01:23:00,920 Speaker 4: want to use a draft pick on a safety. I 1802 01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:05,360 Speaker 4: think they would rather let's see, give Dugger and Pepper's 1803 01:23:05,400 --> 01:23:08,400 Speaker 4: another year and hopefully they're the players we thought they 1804 01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:11,519 Speaker 4: were when we extended them versus what they played like 1805 01:23:12,080 --> 01:23:15,720 Speaker 4: last year. I think that they would prefer to do that. 1806 01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:16,679 Speaker 4: That's just my opinion. 1807 01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:21,160 Speaker 3: But I kind of think Peppers is here to stay now. 1808 01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:22,800 Speaker 3: I think if they were going to get rid of 1809 01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:25,559 Speaker 3: him because of the incident last year, which you know 1810 01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:26,200 Speaker 3: he was clear for. 1811 01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:30,080 Speaker 5: Still, they're clearly not getting rid of him for that incident, 1812 01:23:30,200 --> 01:23:32,680 Speaker 5: but he'd been long gone if they were doing that. 1813 01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:33,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I mean. 1814 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:35,960 Speaker 5: I'm not convinced that those two guys will be on 1815 01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:39,439 Speaker 5: the team. One of them will be, but I'm not 1816 01:23:39,479 --> 01:23:40,720 Speaker 5: convinced that both of them will be. 1817 01:23:40,800 --> 01:23:42,559 Speaker 4: I don't know if both of them necessarily need to be, 1818 01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:46,080 Speaker 4: just because the off the team, they are redundant skill sets, 1819 01:23:46,080 --> 01:23:46,679 Speaker 4: Like I think you can. 1820 01:23:46,560 --> 01:23:48,840 Speaker 5: Get away a chance that one of them could go. 1821 01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:51,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I just think that in terms of using you know, 1822 01:23:51,080 --> 01:23:53,360 Speaker 4: we got a call earlier about you know, Andrew mccuba 1823 01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:55,720 Speaker 4: is going to be a top one hundred pick at safety, Like, 1824 01:23:56,040 --> 01:23:58,360 Speaker 4: I don't know if this is really you're creating more 1825 01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:00,000 Speaker 4: holes in the canoe, right Like if you're starting to 1826 01:24:00,160 --> 01:24:02,280 Speaker 4: pull out the safeties now now, and now all of 1827 01:24:02,280 --> 01:24:03,960 Speaker 4: a sudden, New York, Okay, you're gonna use a top 1828 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:06,559 Speaker 4: one hundred pick on a safety, and now what about 1829 01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:08,400 Speaker 4: all the other positions that you need that are maybe 1830 01:24:08,439 --> 01:24:11,120 Speaker 4: more pressing. I would much rather them kind of like 1831 01:24:11,120 --> 01:24:15,000 Speaker 4: what they're doing at tight end. You probably have passable 1832 01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:17,160 Speaker 4: safeties right now, So let's just see if it were 1833 01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:18,040 Speaker 4: and Mike. 1834 01:24:17,920 --> 01:24:21,040 Speaker 5: Your chances are you're right, the status will be quo. Yeah, 1835 01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:23,080 Speaker 5: but I wouldn't be stunned if one of those guys. 1836 01:24:23,320 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 3: I'm just interested you guys are saying one of those 1837 01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:27,400 Speaker 3: guys implying that maybe you think Kyle Duggar could go. 1838 01:24:27,439 --> 01:24:30,120 Speaker 5: I just, you know, whichever one they can get something for. 1839 01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:31,680 Speaker 5: There was a time where I don't think they're going 1840 01:24:31,720 --> 01:24:33,960 Speaker 5: to release them. There was a time where we wouldn't 1841 01:24:33,960 --> 01:24:36,479 Speaker 5: think of getting rid of Kyle Duggar. So let's get 1842 01:24:36,520 --> 01:24:40,160 Speaker 5: back to that time. Maybe maybe a better front line 1843 01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:43,320 Speaker 5: and more pressure on consistent pressure on the quarterback. 1844 01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:46,400 Speaker 2: Helps him getting him healthy too, and get him healthy 1845 01:24:46,400 --> 01:24:47,760 Speaker 2: maybe the biggest I just. 1846 01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:50,120 Speaker 5: I just think things sometimes pop into your lap that 1847 01:24:50,160 --> 01:24:53,479 Speaker 5: you're not necessarily expecting, you know, And if there was 1848 01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:56,760 Speaker 5: a what if some team looks at Kyle dugla and 1849 01:24:56,800 --> 01:24:59,800 Speaker 5: says he was really banged up last year, the contract 1850 01:24:59,880 --> 01:25:02,599 Speaker 5: is is okay, it's not great, but it's not terrible. 1851 01:25:03,439 --> 01:25:06,040 Speaker 5: I could give something for him, you know something, Maybe 1852 01:25:06,080 --> 01:25:09,280 Speaker 5: I have a surplus somewhere and I could I could 1853 01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:11,640 Speaker 5: trade this or you know, a draft pick for for 1854 01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:16,400 Speaker 5: Kyle Duggar. And you know, the Patriots don't necessarily need 1855 01:25:16,439 --> 01:25:20,960 Speaker 5: two physical box safeties. Maybe they look to get something 1856 01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:21,400 Speaker 5: that they do. 1857 01:25:21,560 --> 01:25:23,160 Speaker 2: Those are the kind of things that could happen, right. 1858 01:25:23,560 --> 01:25:25,880 Speaker 5: I wouldn't suggest they're gonna, you know, year one into 1859 01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:28,800 Speaker 5: a four year deal. Just release them and eat that 1860 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:31,919 Speaker 5: whatever the dead money is. I don't think that would happen. 1861 01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:35,519 Speaker 2: Nate Chicago, did you guys see Dion and he means 1862 01:25:35,560 --> 01:25:39,000 Speaker 2: Sanders publicly saying we are hoping for New York. I 1863 01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:42,799 Speaker 2: think his endorsement could help force the Giant's hand, especially 1864 01:25:42,840 --> 01:25:45,960 Speaker 2: since Joe Shane and Brian Dabele are on the hot seat. 1865 01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:48,200 Speaker 4: I agree, Well, really. 1866 01:25:48,120 --> 01:25:51,360 Speaker 5: I think the opposite, though I understand what the mentality is. 1867 01:25:51,439 --> 01:25:53,520 Speaker 5: I just feel like, if you're on the hot seat, 1868 01:25:53,920 --> 01:25:56,680 Speaker 5: the last thing you want is unproven rookie who some 1869 01:25:56,720 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 5: people think is the second round pick. 1870 01:25:58,680 --> 01:26:01,360 Speaker 4: See. I feel like you almost have no choice, Like 1871 01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:03,960 Speaker 4: if you're stable in Shane, you need to start the clock, 1872 01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:05,880 Speaker 4: Like you need to take a take a risk at 1873 01:26:05,880 --> 01:26:08,719 Speaker 4: one of these quarterbacks at some point and start the clock. 1874 01:26:08,800 --> 01:26:11,040 Speaker 4: And you know, last year they had opportunities to do 1875 01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:13,040 Speaker 4: it too, Like they could have had Penix, they could 1876 01:26:13,040 --> 01:26:15,519 Speaker 4: have had JJ McCarthy, they could have had Nicks. Like 1877 01:26:15,640 --> 01:26:17,920 Speaker 4: at some point you have to take the plunge. And 1878 01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:19,920 Speaker 4: if you keep kicking that can down the road and 1879 01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:22,640 Speaker 4: the you know you're gonna get started getting asked some 1880 01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:24,280 Speaker 4: questions like do you just not have the chops to 1881 01:26:24,400 --> 01:26:25,280 Speaker 4: just go out and do it. 1882 01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:27,160 Speaker 5: I just feel like, if you take Sanders and you 1883 01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:28,160 Speaker 5: win three games, you're going. 1884 01:26:29,080 --> 01:26:31,320 Speaker 4: But if you the alternative, playing jamis on. 1885 01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:33,760 Speaker 5: The alternative is to figure out a way to get 1886 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:35,360 Speaker 5: Like Russell Wilson, you don't. 1887 01:26:35,200 --> 01:26:37,240 Speaker 2: Think someone Sanders buys them some time. 1888 01:26:37,360 --> 01:26:41,400 Speaker 5: I know, no, no, unless he's if they don't win 1889 01:26:41,439 --> 01:26:41,960 Speaker 5: some games. 1890 01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:44,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, but if they win more games than they did 1891 01:26:44,960 --> 01:26:46,960 Speaker 2: last year and Sanders. 1892 01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:49,880 Speaker 5: I don't think that can happen, Okay, I mean that's 1893 01:26:49,920 --> 01:26:51,439 Speaker 5: just my view. I mean that doesn't mean I'm right. 1894 01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:54,240 Speaker 5: I'm wrong about a million things. I thought my prediction 1895 01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:56,839 Speaker 5: would be Sanders will not win five games. 1896 01:26:56,960 --> 01:27:00,559 Speaker 2: But I always thought that getting that rookie quarterback buys 1897 01:27:00,600 --> 01:27:02,360 Speaker 2: you some time as a head coach. 1898 01:27:02,439 --> 01:27:06,160 Speaker 5: Y it does when you're a new regime. Like I 1899 01:27:06,200 --> 01:27:09,599 Speaker 5: don't think, for example, Tennessee would have to take cam 1900 01:27:09,680 --> 01:27:10,799 Speaker 5: Ward if they didn't want. 1901 01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:14,559 Speaker 2: To, I guess. But they didn't work for right. 1902 01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:17,960 Speaker 5: You know, like everybody uses Atlanta as an example. So 1903 01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:20,439 Speaker 5: they they went and signed Kirk Cousins, and they still 1904 01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:24,760 Speaker 5: drafted Michael Pennix. It's the first year coach. He's not 1905 01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:27,920 Speaker 5: in the hot seat. He can do that. So I 1906 01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:31,120 Speaker 5: think if you sign Russell Wilson or Aaron Rodgers, I 1907 01:27:31,160 --> 01:27:33,679 Speaker 5: know that's unlikely. It looks like Pittsburgh for Aaron Rodgers. 1908 01:27:34,160 --> 01:27:35,920 Speaker 5: But if they signed one of those guys, I don't 1909 01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:37,919 Speaker 5: see how you can then take Shadua Sanders. 1910 01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:42,640 Speaker 4: If I was I would just be they messed up 1911 01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:45,120 Speaker 4: the draft last year. Like Neighbors a great player, but 1912 01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:47,720 Speaker 4: they messed up the draft last year. I'm sure in 1913 01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:50,080 Speaker 4: the eyes of their ownership, they messed it up by 1914 01:27:50,120 --> 01:27:52,559 Speaker 4: passing on Nixon Pennix, Like those two guys look like 1915 01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:54,800 Speaker 4: they can play in the league and they needed a 1916 01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:57,720 Speaker 4: quarterback and they didn't take them. And so if you 1917 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:00,559 Speaker 4: do that again and Shadora Sanders goes to another team 1918 01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:03,040 Speaker 4: and looks like he can play in the league, you're out. 1919 01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:06,800 Speaker 5: If Sanders can play in the league again, If they're 1920 01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:09,120 Speaker 5: wrong and I'm wrong and he ends up being really 1921 01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:11,479 Speaker 5: good out of the shoot, they're gone. 1922 01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:13,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, Because I think there's a chance he could be 1923 01:28:13,439 --> 01:28:15,720 Speaker 4: really good out of the shoot, like and I say 1924 01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:17,200 Speaker 4: really good, like mac Joe. 1925 01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:20,000 Speaker 5: I think he's so raw. I just don't see it. See. 1926 01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:21,759 Speaker 4: I think it's the opposite. I think that he's actually 1927 01:28:21,840 --> 01:28:23,840 Speaker 4: I mean, he's played a ton of college football. 1928 01:28:23,439 --> 01:28:26,080 Speaker 5: I know, and I think he's right at a high level. 1929 01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:28,200 Speaker 4: He's got a pretty good instinct to him, a pretty 1930 01:28:28,240 --> 01:28:32,000 Speaker 4: good ability to him in terms of his floor. I 1931 01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:34,680 Speaker 4: think a lot of people are just wondering if the 1932 01:28:34,800 --> 01:28:37,120 Speaker 4: athleticism in the arm talent is there for him to 1933 01:28:37,160 --> 01:28:38,439 Speaker 4: have a breakthrough seals. 1934 01:28:38,600 --> 01:28:41,240 Speaker 5: This is a little stubborn polism because Evan's right, that's 1935 01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:44,120 Speaker 5: the way he's viewed. Evans got the viewpoint of most 1936 01:28:44,479 --> 01:28:46,400 Speaker 5: I look at him in a much different way. I 1937 01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:49,719 Speaker 5: think he has talent. I'm intrigued by some of his talent, 1938 01:28:50,479 --> 01:28:51,960 Speaker 5: but I think he's raw, and he breaks a lot 1939 01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:54,759 Speaker 5: of rules and runs around aimlessly, and yeah, he generally 1940 01:28:54,800 --> 01:28:56,680 Speaker 5: points his fingers at the offensive line a lot. That 1941 01:28:57,040 --> 01:28:58,839 Speaker 5: to me, he creates a lot of his own pressure 1942 01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:02,160 Speaker 5: by running round and holding the ball. I think he's 1943 01:29:02,160 --> 01:29:03,720 Speaker 5: really wrong. I think he has a long way to go. 1944 01:29:03,960 --> 01:29:06,720 Speaker 2: Phill in the UK says, if Carter is at four, 1945 01:29:06,800 --> 01:29:10,200 Speaker 2: given the current d line and needs elsewhere, would you 1946 01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:12,479 Speaker 2: look to trade down to pick up a wide receiver, 1947 01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:16,519 Speaker 2: tackle and additional picks? I say no, because you don't 1948 01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:19,679 Speaker 2: have Abdul Carter, right, you don't have that type of rusher. 1949 01:29:20,080 --> 01:29:23,760 Speaker 2: So maybe you have depth on your d line now, 1950 01:29:24,040 --> 01:29:25,559 Speaker 2: but you don't have Abdul Carter. 1951 01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:30,000 Speaker 3: And he's potentially special, a really good fit for what 1952 01:29:30,040 --> 01:29:31,640 Speaker 3: they want to do. I mean, there's a number of 1953 01:29:31,680 --> 01:29:33,960 Speaker 3: things they can do with him. Hey, it just makes 1954 01:29:33,960 --> 01:29:35,680 Speaker 3: too much sense. It hurts that it's not on the 1955 01:29:35,680 --> 01:29:38,760 Speaker 3: offensive side of the ball, but it's kind of like 1956 01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:41,080 Speaker 3: free agency was you got to take what's given to 1957 01:29:41,120 --> 01:29:43,920 Speaker 3: you or what's available. I think that'd be a huge 1958 01:29:43,920 --> 01:29:46,280 Speaker 3: thing moment. If Abdul Carter falls to fourth overall they 1959 01:29:46,280 --> 01:29:48,080 Speaker 3: get a chance to pick him, that would be that'd 1960 01:29:48,120 --> 01:29:48,639 Speaker 3: be pretty cool. 1961 01:29:48,680 --> 01:29:51,360 Speaker 4: I would definitely listen to the trade offers. If you 1962 01:29:51,479 --> 01:29:55,439 Speaker 4: get a Will Anderson like package for Abdull Carter and 1963 01:29:55,560 --> 01:29:58,320 Speaker 4: you can get a Day two pick and a future 1964 01:29:58,320 --> 01:30:01,960 Speaker 4: first round pick for four in the position the Patriots 1965 01:30:01,960 --> 01:30:04,120 Speaker 4: are in, with all the needs that they have, I 1966 01:30:04,160 --> 01:30:07,839 Speaker 4: would definitely listen to it. Would I do it? I'm 1967 01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:10,960 Speaker 4: glad I don't. I'm glad I don't have to make 1968 01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:11,519 Speaker 4: that decision. 1969 01:30:11,640 --> 01:30:13,479 Speaker 5: I haven't given any thoughts to that kind of a 1970 01:30:13,520 --> 01:30:15,880 Speaker 5: package because I don't think that's available. But we also 1971 01:30:15,960 --> 01:30:20,120 Speaker 5: haven't thought about Carter and being available, right, so I 1972 01:30:21,120 --> 01:30:22,920 Speaker 5: hate to somebody wants him that much. 1973 01:30:23,120 --> 01:30:24,599 Speaker 7: Like if somebody wants him that much. 1974 01:30:24,479 --> 01:30:26,120 Speaker 3: You should want him that much, you know. 1975 01:30:26,200 --> 01:30:28,760 Speaker 5: Like Mike god instinct would be to take Carter. I 1976 01:30:28,760 --> 01:30:30,720 Speaker 5: think he's a special player, but maybe he's not. I 1977 01:30:30,720 --> 01:30:31,080 Speaker 5: don't know. 1978 01:30:31,160 --> 01:30:33,000 Speaker 4: Well, I don't even think it has to do with 1979 01:30:33,040 --> 01:30:35,280 Speaker 4: whether he's special or not. I just they have a 1980 01:30:35,280 --> 01:30:38,200 Speaker 4: lot of holes to fill that all over the roster. 1981 01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:41,960 Speaker 4: I wouldn't hate having the extra picks, Like, you know, 1982 01:30:42,080 --> 01:30:45,080 Speaker 4: then you have we're gonna have a first round, you know, 1983 01:30:45,120 --> 01:30:47,439 Speaker 4: later first round pick this year, but you also have 1984 01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:49,559 Speaker 4: you'll have four picks on Day two of the draft, 1985 01:30:50,000 --> 01:30:52,479 Speaker 4: and you'll have two first round picks next year. You 1986 01:30:52,520 --> 01:30:54,320 Speaker 4: know that. So you have a lot of picks to 1987 01:30:54,360 --> 01:30:57,160 Speaker 4: work with, whether that's to pick players or to trade him. 1988 01:30:57,160 --> 01:31:01,559 Speaker 4: It's an intriguing, right, you know, triguing possibile. I just wouldn't. 1989 01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:04,640 Speaker 4: I just wouldn't. Like I don't know, last year when 1990 01:31:04,680 --> 01:31:07,080 Speaker 4: you needed a quarterback, it was different. You weren't going 1991 01:31:07,120 --> 01:31:09,640 Speaker 4: to trade down because you were taking a quarterback. I 1992 01:31:09,680 --> 01:31:11,880 Speaker 4: don't know if any one position player moves the needle 1993 01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:15,160 Speaker 4: enough for me to be completely dismissive of a trade down. 1994 01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:17,280 Speaker 3: I'm excited for this draft though last year it was 1995 01:31:17,320 --> 01:31:21,360 Speaker 3: all right, we just want we just want Jaden Daniels 1996 01:31:21,400 --> 01:31:22,720 Speaker 3: to go, you know, like like I was thinking I 1997 01:31:22,720 --> 01:31:24,519 Speaker 3: wanted Drake. So it just there was really one question 1998 01:31:24,600 --> 01:31:26,320 Speaker 3: because Jade Dale was going to go to Washington. 1999 01:31:26,600 --> 01:31:28,880 Speaker 2: Have you picked up your outfit yet for the draft? No, 2000 01:31:28,960 --> 01:31:32,439 Speaker 2: we got to talk about that second quarters. 2001 01:31:33,800 --> 01:31:37,519 Speaker 4: You want to go out on limb like that, that's bold, it's. 2002 01:31:37,400 --> 01:31:39,439 Speaker 2: Help Rights and fred sis.

I think he is better then 2052 01:33:59,240 --> 01:34:02,960 Speaker 2: you think. With the prime related publicity throw, I think 2053 01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:04,040 Speaker 2: he will go top three. 2054 01:34:04,800 --> 01:34:06,559 Speaker 5: Well, I think he I think he could very well 2055 01:34:06,640 --> 01:34:08,400 Speaker 5: go in the top three. But he's better than I think. 2056 01:34:08,479 --> 01:34:11,760 Speaker 5: I feel like you guys are higher on him than 2057 01:34:11,800 --> 01:34:13,400 Speaker 5: I am. I think. Don't want to drag you into 2058 01:34:13,479 --> 01:34:15,080 Speaker 5: my viewpoints. 2059 01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:17,360 Speaker 4: The big question with Shador that I have is what 2060 01:34:17,479 --> 01:34:21,679 Speaker 4: you brought up is was he making the offensive line 2061 01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:24,280 Speaker 4: worse or is the offensive line making him worse? Like 2062 01:34:24,360 --> 01:34:29,400 Speaker 4: if you had put him in Oregon's offense, in Texas's offense, 2063 01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:33,120 Speaker 4: in LSU's offense, or whatever, would he have been lighting 2064 01:34:33,120 --> 01:34:34,479 Speaker 4: at the point, you know, would he have been lighting 2065 01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:36,559 Speaker 4: it up like those quarterbacks sid like bo Nix did 2066 01:34:36,920 --> 01:34:39,400 Speaker 4: at Oregon because he's no one ever touches him and 2067 01:34:39,479 --> 01:34:42,400 Speaker 4: he's just standing there. So in the NFL, if he 2068 01:34:42,520 --> 01:34:45,280 Speaker 4: goes to a situation where they can protect him and 2069 01:34:45,439 --> 01:34:47,720 Speaker 4: now he's he is clean to throw the football, I 2070 01:34:48,040 --> 01:34:50,360 Speaker 4: think that there's a nice I'll say this. 2071 01:34:50,680 --> 01:34:52,880 Speaker 5: I hope I'm wrong about Sanders, because I think it 2072 01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:55,519 Speaker 5: would be good for the league to have, you know, 2073 01:34:55,840 --> 01:34:59,479 Speaker 5: especially but well see, no, I think there's there's a 2074 01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:02,360 Speaker 5: little bit similar to what you're talking about. Just there's 2075 01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:05,320 Speaker 5: a there's a personality sure, and I think the aura 2076 01:35:05,400 --> 01:35:08,640 Speaker 5: of Dion I think there'd be some value to that 2077 01:35:09,120 --> 01:35:14,879 Speaker 5: if dos Sanders end up joining you know the classroom 2078 01:35:14,960 --> 01:35:16,960 Speaker 5: last year, that looks like pretty much all the guys 2079 01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:22,040 Speaker 5: that played had some success, not just Daniels. That's good 2080 01:35:22,080 --> 01:35:23,439 Speaker 5: for the league.

This is a blue collar draft, all right? 2197 01:40:49,680 --> 01:40:53,679 Speaker 9: I gotcha? Fair enough? Heaven a couple of quick ones 2198 01:40:53,760 --> 01:40:56,720 Speaker 9: for you and I'll take him off the air. One 2199 01:40:56,760 --> 01:40:58,280 Speaker 9: of the things I don't think we ever hear about 2200 01:40:58,320 --> 01:41:00,439 Speaker 9: Travis Hunter, just in case he is there. Four, is 2201 01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:02,439 Speaker 9: how good of a separatory is? 2202 01:41:02,520 --> 01:41:02,680 Speaker 5: Then? 2203 01:41:02,840 --> 01:41:05,320 Speaker 9: I'm assuming that you watched the film on them, So 2204 01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:08,040 Speaker 9: if you have, just how good of a separator is? 2205 01:41:08,080 --> 01:41:09,840 Speaker 1: The d question? 2206 01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:10,160 Speaker 2: Two? 2207 01:41:10,479 --> 01:41:12,280 Speaker 9: Out of all the guys that you've watched so far, 2208 01:41:12,360 --> 01:41:14,120 Speaker 9: out of all the wide receivers, who do you think 2209 01:41:14,200 --> 01:41:16,040 Speaker 9: is the best separator? And I'll take it out there, guys. 2210 01:41:16,120 --> 01:41:19,519 Speaker 4: Thanks, Okay, the best separator? That's a good question. 2211 01:41:21,720 --> 01:41:26,960 Speaker 2: So first of all, what's Travis Hunter's reputation? Good separator 2212 01:41:27,120 --> 01:41:27,559 Speaker 2: or not good? 2213 01:41:28,280 --> 01:41:32,000 Speaker 4: I would say above average separator, great ball skills. I've 2214 01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:33,040 Speaker 4: read him the catchpoint. 2215 01:41:33,120 --> 01:41:36,800 Speaker 2: I've seen him make moves that just leave people. 2216 01:41:37,080 --> 01:41:37,599 Speaker 5: In the dust. 2217 01:41:37,720 --> 01:41:40,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, he definitely does separate. I think he's, you know, 2218 01:41:40,520 --> 01:41:44,400 Speaker 4: around the seventieth percentile separation in terms of you know, 2219 01:41:44,479 --> 01:41:47,120 Speaker 4: PFF and stuff like that. He can separate like that. 2220 01:41:47,320 --> 01:41:50,160 Speaker 4: It's not a concern. But I would say his best 2221 01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:53,639 Speaker 4: trade is his ball skills at the catchpoint, strong hands, 2222 01:41:53,800 --> 01:41:57,160 Speaker 4: you know, ability to finish through contact. The best pure 2223 01:41:57,280 --> 01:42:01,479 Speaker 4: separator in the draft, I would say it's probably a 2224 01:42:01,560 --> 01:42:05,920 Speaker 4: two horse race between Matthew Golden and Jalen Noel from 2225 01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:08,080 Speaker 4: Iowa State. I think both those guys are probably the 2226 01:42:08,120 --> 01:42:11,519 Speaker 4: best pure separators in terms of route running technicians, you know, 2227 01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:14,040 Speaker 4: your lad Maconkey's, you know, those types of guys. 2228 01:42:14,960 --> 01:42:15,080 Speaker 6: You know. 2229 01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:17,760 Speaker 4: Golden doesn't necessarily play to the four two nine. I 2230 01:42:17,800 --> 01:42:20,479 Speaker 4: don't think he's that fast, but he's a technician and 2231 01:42:20,600 --> 01:42:24,080 Speaker 4: he's a really good separated. He gets some Stefan Diggs comparisons, 2232 01:42:24,520 --> 01:42:28,160 Speaker 4: you know, for ceiling comparisons, so he definitely gets open. 2233 01:42:28,240 --> 01:42:29,760 Speaker 3: So I just don't think we talk much about like 2234 01:42:29,840 --> 01:42:32,120 Speaker 3: what is Travis Hunter's ceiling as a receiver. As he 2235 01:42:32,240 --> 01:42:34,920 Speaker 3: learns to run routes and learns the nuance of it 2236 01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:36,439 Speaker 3: and really drills down on it. 2237 01:42:36,520 --> 01:42:36,640 Speaker 6: You know. 2238 01:42:36,720 --> 01:42:38,800 Speaker 3: It's one thing to look at him beating everybody, like 2239 01:42:38,840 --> 01:42:40,680 Speaker 3: you guys said earlier, as a pure athlete, but when 2240 01:42:40,720 --> 01:42:44,479 Speaker 3: he really becomes a polished wide receiver, like what does 2241 01:42:44,520 --> 01:42:46,800 Speaker 3: that look like? And that's something you know, you don't 2242 01:42:46,840 --> 01:42:49,920 Speaker 3: really there's a projection there. Even though he's an elite athlete, 2243 01:42:49,960 --> 01:42:50,800 Speaker 3: there's a projection there. 2244 01:42:50,840 --> 01:42:52,240 Speaker 4: And he's only twenty one years old. 2245 01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:55,080 Speaker 2: Well, like Kevin said, in college, he didn't focus on 2246 01:42:55,200 --> 01:42:57,240 Speaker 2: wide receiver, right, So he's. 2247 01:42:57,120 --> 01:43:00,120 Speaker 3: Just out there beating guys on pure, pure skills and 2248 01:43:00,280 --> 01:43:03,840 Speaker 3: speed and explosiveness, not the lab McConkey, who isn't going 2249 01:43:03,880 --> 01:43:05,559 Speaker 3: to set the world on fire with his testing them, 2250 01:43:05,600 --> 01:43:08,559 Speaker 3: but knows the little head dip and the little head 2251 01:43:08,680 --> 01:43:11,320 Speaker 3: you know, and is able to with subtle movements by 2252 01:43:11,439 --> 01:43:12,240 Speaker 3: himself separation. 2253 01:43:12,680 --> 01:43:14,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, he put up twelve hundred yards and 2254 01:43:14,840 --> 01:43:18,400 Speaker 4: sixteen touchdowns on vibes like basically just being the best 2255 01:43:18,439 --> 01:43:21,240 Speaker 4: player on the field. So now imagine we sprinkle in 2256 01:43:21,320 --> 01:43:25,320 Speaker 4: some development and some some you know, wide receiver special 2257 01:43:25,400 --> 01:43:28,000 Speaker 4: work like working on releases, working on the top of 2258 01:43:28,040 --> 01:43:30,799 Speaker 4: the route, like all those different things, all of a sudden. 2259 01:43:31,000 --> 01:43:32,800 Speaker 4: I think it's special the ceiling. 2260 01:43:33,040 --> 01:43:35,240 Speaker 3: Him and Drake late in the down, Drake scrambling a 2261 01:43:35,280 --> 01:43:37,439 Speaker 3: little bit. All of a sudden you get Travis Hunter 2262 01:43:37,920 --> 01:43:39,200 Speaker 3: cooking through the middle of the field. 2263 01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:41,160 Speaker 4: Now you're sticking my language. 2264 01:43:42,040 --> 01:43:49,280 Speaker 2: Eldred's is in North Carolina. Hey, Aldred, Biggie, Hey, all right, 2265 01:43:50,840 --> 01:43:51,799 Speaker 2: I gotta quint. 2266 01:43:52,240 --> 01:43:58,240 Speaker 12: And like I said, there a duke car take them, 2267 01:43:58,840 --> 01:43:59,240 Speaker 12: take them. 2268 01:43:59,479 --> 01:44:01,040 Speaker 19: They didn't trade him in the first round. 2269 01:44:01,120 --> 01:44:02,519 Speaker 20: Get a tackle. 2270 01:44:03,040 --> 01:44:05,639 Speaker 12: But I know everybody won't. 2271 01:44:06,040 --> 01:44:07,000 Speaker 20: Joe Milton gone. 2272 01:44:07,800 --> 01:44:11,519 Speaker 19: So why is everybody, including Brian Hole, keep wanting to 2273 01:44:11,520 --> 01:44:12,040 Speaker 19: get drafted? 2274 01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:14,320 Speaker 20: Want to sit them out, you know, and we need 2275 01:44:14,400 --> 01:44:16,760 Speaker 20: to pack up. I know, but we got job, but 2276 01:44:16,840 --> 01:44:17,760 Speaker 20: I wouldn't trust jobs. 2277 01:44:17,760 --> 01:44:20,280 Speaker 12: I don't have Milton back there backing up, mate. 2278 01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:22,559 Speaker 20: Can anybody have that fortune? 2279 01:44:22,720 --> 01:44:23,240 Speaker 12: Take it off there? 2280 01:44:23,560 --> 01:44:26,320 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, thanks, thanks as got to get back 2281 01:44:26,360 --> 01:44:26,679 Speaker 2: to truck. 2282 01:44:26,720 --> 01:44:28,280 Speaker 3: If anybody wants to get rid of them, I just 2283 01:44:28,320 --> 01:44:31,800 Speaker 3: think they might have er plus asset that you might 2284 01:44:31,840 --> 01:44:34,320 Speaker 3: be able to get something significant. I don't necessarily, but 2285 01:44:34,479 --> 01:44:36,760 Speaker 3: we don't necessarily think you're going to get something super significant. 2286 01:44:36,840 --> 01:44:39,240 Speaker 5: But yeah, but I think people that are interested in 2287 01:44:39,320 --> 01:44:41,720 Speaker 5: trading Milton think they're going to get it like a 2288 01:44:41,760 --> 01:44:42,559 Speaker 5: second or third round. 2289 01:44:42,920 --> 01:44:44,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think only they want to trade him if 2290 01:44:44,920 --> 01:44:46,200 Speaker 2: they get something really good. 2291 01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:49,599 Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, what is the Brian Hoyer that I miss? 2292 01:44:49,720 --> 01:44:49,960 Speaker 3: Brian? 2293 01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:51,639 Speaker 4: He must have said something on a podcast. 2294 01:44:51,720 --> 01:44:53,200 Speaker 3: Oh okay, you can't trade that guy. 2295 01:44:54,000 --> 01:44:54,200 Speaker 10: Yeah. 2296 01:44:55,320 --> 01:44:58,600 Speaker 5: I would keep him because if if you think that 2297 01:44:58,680 --> 01:45:02,560 Speaker 5: there might be some potential there, then you hold on 2298 01:45:02,640 --> 01:45:04,960 Speaker 5: to him and you have him as a cheap backup. 2299 01:45:05,120 --> 01:45:08,840 Speaker 2: And then will this be the most anticipated preseason and 2300 01:45:08,960 --> 01:45:10,560 Speaker 2: Hatred's recent history? No? 2301 01:45:10,720 --> 01:45:13,560 Speaker 5: Last year was you have the third overall pick and 2302 01:45:13,560 --> 01:45:14,679 Speaker 5: you couldn't wait to see him play? 2303 01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:15,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? 2304 01:45:16,320 --> 01:45:20,000 Speaker 5: Right, it's gonna be cool too. But what if what 2305 01:45:20,120 --> 01:45:21,600 Speaker 5: if he had a really good preseason? 2306 01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:22,759 Speaker 2: Joe Milton? 2307 01:45:22,880 --> 01:45:25,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, you might be able to might be a pump 2308 01:45:25,960 --> 01:45:26,400 Speaker 5: his value. 2309 01:45:26,400 --> 01:45:27,040 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. 2310 01:45:27,640 --> 01:45:28,439 Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying too. 2311 01:45:30,280 --> 01:45:30,400 Speaker 3: Uh. 2312 01:45:30,600 --> 01:45:32,280 Speaker 2: Marks in Connecticut? What's up? Mark? 2313 01:45:34,040 --> 01:45:34,280 Speaker 3: Paul? 2314 01:45:34,320 --> 01:45:36,040 Speaker 13: I hope you had a good vacation. 2315 01:45:36,720 --> 01:45:40,679 Speaker 5: I did, thank you. I know the whole show. 2316 01:45:40,760 --> 01:45:43,680 Speaker 11: Did I need you or. 2317 01:45:43,960 --> 01:45:46,200 Speaker 12: Any of you guys to answer this question? We're talking, 2318 01:45:46,760 --> 01:45:49,360 Speaker 12: you know, half an inch on a guy's arm. It 2319 01:45:49,479 --> 01:45:52,840 Speaker 12: doesn't make any sense to me. Will Campbell, you don't 2320 01:45:52,920 --> 01:45:58,000 Speaker 12: block with your arms out, you block with your hands in. No, 2321 01:45:58,240 --> 01:46:00,800 Speaker 12: So what I don't understand is why is it that 2322 01:46:00,880 --> 01:46:02,759 Speaker 12: we're talking about a half an inch if the guy's 2323 01:46:02,800 --> 01:46:04,160 Speaker 12: gonna play tackle a ard. 2324 01:46:04,520 --> 01:46:08,320 Speaker 2: Well that your your your premise is incorrect. When at 2325 01:46:08,880 --> 01:46:11,639 Speaker 2: when you're out the outside of the line, your reach 2326 01:46:11,800 --> 01:46:15,040 Speaker 2: does matter because you you start that way with that 2327 01:46:15,200 --> 01:46:18,000 Speaker 2: initial punch, so you're you, you don't want to get 2328 01:46:18,040 --> 01:46:20,679 Speaker 2: the guy close in. If you're a center a guard, 2329 01:46:21,439 --> 01:46:23,639 Speaker 2: it's that's not as important. But when you're out there 2330 01:46:23,680 --> 01:46:26,280 Speaker 2: on that island, you do need to get your arm 2331 01:46:26,360 --> 01:46:29,200 Speaker 2: out and keep the distance between the rusher and you 2332 01:46:29,360 --> 01:46:31,760 Speaker 2: because if they get close in, then they use your 2333 01:46:31,800 --> 01:46:32,840 Speaker 2: own leverage against you. 2334 01:46:35,240 --> 01:46:37,200 Speaker 12: What is that quarter to what happened? It's really going 2335 01:46:37,280 --> 01:46:37,880 Speaker 12: to make a difference. 2336 01:46:37,880 --> 01:46:39,800 Speaker 2: Well that's the question. That's the question. 2337 01:46:40,720 --> 01:46:43,920 Speaker 5: You know it could. Yeah, NFL coaches believe it. 2338 01:46:44,680 --> 01:46:45,479 Speaker 2: Okay, thanks, And. 2339 01:46:45,600 --> 01:46:47,479 Speaker 4: It's not just like a quarter or a half Inchury 2340 01:46:47,520 --> 01:46:50,240 Speaker 4: have to keep like he's below the threshold that was 2341 01:46:50,360 --> 01:46:53,519 Speaker 4: reset right already. So he used to be thirty four inches, 2342 01:46:53,920 --> 01:46:56,080 Speaker 4: then they reset it to thirty three and now he's 2343 01:46:56,120 --> 01:46:59,320 Speaker 4: even below that threshold, right, So we're not really talking 2344 01:46:59,400 --> 01:47:02,720 Speaker 4: about more like an inch or to an inch and 2345 01:47:02,800 --> 01:47:05,680 Speaker 4: a half that he of ideal armleights, like thirty four 2346 01:47:05,720 --> 01:47:07,960 Speaker 4: is still ideal. You just feel like you can get 2347 01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:08,880 Speaker 4: away with thirty three. 2348 01:47:09,439 --> 01:47:11,640 Speaker 5: And you know the Dante party was. 2349 01:47:11,680 --> 01:47:15,280 Speaker 2: The greatest left tackle with short arms of all time. 2350 01:47:15,439 --> 01:47:19,080 Speaker 4: Well, Joe Thomas had short arms. And you know he 2351 01:47:19,240 --> 01:47:21,479 Speaker 4: always comes out this time of year and tries to 2352 01:47:21,560 --> 01:47:22,720 Speaker 4: advocate for the short arms. 2353 01:47:23,400 --> 01:47:24,400 Speaker 2: But what does that mean short? 2354 01:47:24,680 --> 01:47:26,600 Speaker 4: I want to say thirty three and a half? You 2355 01:47:26,640 --> 01:47:28,200 Speaker 4: know something. You know he was in the thirty three 2356 01:47:28,400 --> 01:47:32,840 Speaker 4: OK range, but he wasn't overly long, like he didn't 2357 01:47:32,880 --> 01:47:37,160 Speaker 4: have like Tyron Smith's level length, you know, and he's 2358 01:47:37,320 --> 01:47:38,800 Speaker 4: maybe the best left tackle of all time. 2359 01:47:39,040 --> 01:47:41,160 Speaker 5: I might be interested in Dante who says that this 2360 01:47:41,280 --> 01:47:43,680 Speaker 5: guy can play tackle if that is accurate with the 2361 01:47:43,880 --> 01:47:47,600 Speaker 5: emailer before said attributed to Dante, and I would I 2362 01:47:47,640 --> 01:47:49,600 Speaker 5: would that would wait, that would mean a lot to me, 2363 01:47:49,880 --> 01:47:53,360 Speaker 5: you know what done Dante feels. But I'm not interested 2364 01:47:53,439 --> 01:47:55,960 Speaker 5: in having a tackle who can play tackle with the 2365 01:47:56,000 --> 01:47:59,479 Speaker 5: fourth pick. I want that tackle to be a dominant tackle. 2366 01:47:59,520 --> 01:48:02,360 Speaker 5: If I'm going to take him fourth, I want Trent Williams, 2367 01:48:03,240 --> 01:48:05,920 Speaker 5: you know, I want like a top and high. You know, 2368 01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:09,400 Speaker 5: someone brought up the fact that you know where I 2369 01:48:09,479 --> 01:48:12,840 Speaker 5: think it was Randy, that we're overlooking a little bit 2370 01:48:12,920 --> 01:48:15,559 Speaker 5: the problems with the short arms. Look at what Joe 2371 01:48:15,600 --> 01:48:18,880 Speaker 5: Toney did. Joe Toney can clearly play tackle in the NFL. 2372 01:48:19,240 --> 01:48:22,320 Speaker 5: He got beaten badly in the Super Bowl, but he 2373 01:48:22,439 --> 01:48:26,479 Speaker 5: played at an acceptable level prior to that. But there 2374 01:48:26,560 --> 01:48:29,600 Speaker 5: is limitations that come with your body type, and you 2375 01:48:29,720 --> 01:48:31,360 Speaker 5: saw that in the Super Bowl. I don't want that 2376 01:48:31,520 --> 01:48:33,960 Speaker 5: with the fourth overall pick. I don't want a guy 2377 01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:37,040 Speaker 5: who can get by because he's good enough to get by, 2378 01:48:37,520 --> 01:48:39,800 Speaker 5: but he's going to get victimized from time to time 2379 01:48:39,920 --> 01:48:42,600 Speaker 5: because his arms are too short. I'm going to use 2380 01:48:42,640 --> 01:48:43,840 Speaker 5: the fourth overall pick on him. 2381 01:48:43,880 --> 01:48:46,120 Speaker 4: I think all these guys have that though, Like I, 2382 01:48:47,200 --> 01:48:50,040 Speaker 4: if you're not getting those two top guys, like you're 2383 01:48:50,120 --> 01:48:53,640 Speaker 4: you're picking from flawed options Like Ted McMillan is not 2384 01:48:53,760 --> 01:48:57,400 Speaker 4: a typical top five receiver. You know, Mason Graham's undersized, well, 2385 01:48:57,439 --> 01:48:59,200 Speaker 4: Campbell's undersize like you know. 2386 01:48:59,280 --> 01:49:01,439 Speaker 5: It just you So it's a problem. 2387 01:49:01,520 --> 01:49:04,000 Speaker 4: It's picked the lesser of the evils, Like which one 2388 01:49:04,240 --> 01:49:06,639 Speaker 4: would you rather? Like, I'm with you if Joe Thomas 2389 01:49:06,760 --> 01:49:08,640 Speaker 4: was in this draft, then obviously we'd be running the 2390 01:49:08,680 --> 01:49:11,320 Speaker 4: card up there at four overall. But that player doesn't 2391 01:49:11,360 --> 01:49:14,280 Speaker 4: exist necessarily in this draft outside of those top two guys. 2392 01:49:14,360 --> 01:49:17,120 Speaker 4: So it's just what you have to pick your poison 2393 01:49:17,160 --> 01:49:19,760 Speaker 4: a little bit with this class of what would you 2394 01:49:19,840 --> 01:49:20,280 Speaker 4: rather live with? 2395 01:49:20,400 --> 01:49:23,000 Speaker 5: Not an easy choice they're gonna have to weigh. I 2396 01:49:23,040 --> 01:49:25,479 Speaker 5: would say anywhere between a half dozen to a dozen 2397 01:49:25,600 --> 01:49:28,439 Speaker 5: guys that I think, as Evan said earlier in the show, 2398 01:49:28,479 --> 01:49:29,519 Speaker 5: you could talk yourself into. 2399 01:49:29,800 --> 01:49:35,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Bill in San Diego, says Paul exclamations. Agassy won 2400 01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:39,200 Speaker 2: eight majors, four Aussi's, two US, one Wimbledon, one French, 2401 01:49:39,280 --> 01:49:43,160 Speaker 2: plus he won a gold medal. Sampress won fourteen, but 2402 01:49:43,360 --> 01:49:46,519 Speaker 2: no French, no gold medals. Agassy was a much more 2403 01:49:46,640 --> 01:49:47,400 Speaker 2: rounded player. 2404 01:49:47,600 --> 01:49:50,519 Speaker 5: That'sampers is a vastly superior player at August. 2405 01:49:50,560 --> 01:49:52,519 Speaker 2: Sampress couldn't win on slower surfaces. 2406 01:49:52,680 --> 01:49:57,080 Speaker 5: That's like Sampress is a better player than Agassy. As 2407 01:49:57,120 --> 01:49:58,880 Speaker 5: the tennis expert. Please, well, I. 2408 01:49:58,920 --> 01:50:01,960 Speaker 2: Think on those majors he certainly was, but he never 2409 01:50:02,040 --> 01:50:05,000 Speaker 2: won on clay. So but then again, Borg never won 2410 01:50:05,080 --> 01:50:05,719 Speaker 2: the US. 2411 01:50:05,560 --> 01:50:07,559 Speaker 5: Open, so does that mean he wasn't that good. There's 2412 01:50:07,560 --> 01:50:10,240 Speaker 5: a lot of guys that are more suited, like to 2413 01:50:10,720 --> 01:50:11,799 Speaker 5: individual services. 2414 01:50:11,920 --> 01:50:13,720 Speaker 4: But I feel like, if you can't win on clay, Paul, 2415 01:50:13,800 --> 01:50:14,960 Speaker 4: then how good are you? 2416 01:50:15,120 --> 01:50:18,719 Speaker 5: I think it's the opposite. I think clay is the neutral. 2417 01:50:19,800 --> 01:50:22,719 Speaker 5: I think because Sampras was so much better, the clay 2418 01:50:22,800 --> 01:50:25,559 Speaker 5: slowed him down. Yeah, and he had a hard time. 2419 01:50:26,280 --> 01:50:29,519 Speaker 5: I think winning on grass or like the hard course 2420 01:50:29,640 --> 01:50:32,880 Speaker 5: is more impressive than clay. Now they're all great, I 2421 01:50:32,960 --> 01:50:34,760 Speaker 5: mean I'm not. You know, like Rafael on the dollar 2422 01:50:34,800 --> 01:50:38,080 Speaker 5: won how many frenches a million? Like approximately, he's one 2423 01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:40,439 Speaker 5: of the one of the handful of greatest tennis players 2424 01:50:40,439 --> 01:50:44,760 Speaker 5: ever five maybe, and he won how many clays? How 2425 01:50:44,800 --> 01:50:46,040 Speaker 5: many on french tons? 2426 01:50:46,600 --> 01:50:49,160 Speaker 2: He was the ten yeah right, yeah, but he also 2427 01:50:49,240 --> 01:50:50,720 Speaker 2: wanted the US Open, right, you know. 2428 01:50:51,960 --> 01:50:54,000 Speaker 5: I just I feel like Sampras was a far better 2429 01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:56,400 Speaker 5: player than I think Agasy was a lot of flash. 2430 01:50:57,640 --> 01:50:59,479 Speaker 5: Oh no, there was a lot of fun. He was good. 2431 01:50:59,720 --> 01:51:00,280 Speaker 3: He was good. 2432 01:51:00,520 --> 01:51:02,599 Speaker 5: He was Sampras is one of the all time great. 2433 01:51:02,680 --> 01:51:05,639 Speaker 2: Agassy was one of the best returners ever. He ever. 2434 01:51:05,960 --> 01:51:07,439 Speaker 5: I just don't think he was just going to sanprs 2435 01:51:08,040 --> 01:51:10,599 Speaker 5: he does. I don't think that means he don't say 2436 01:51:10,640 --> 01:51:12,519 Speaker 5: he was flash. He was about flash. 2437 01:51:13,479 --> 01:51:15,439 Speaker 2: Why because he had a wig. You know, he wore 2438 01:51:15,439 --> 01:51:15,760 Speaker 2: a wig. 2439 01:51:15,880 --> 01:51:19,840 Speaker 5: He wore a wig, and he had high profile marriages. 2440 01:51:19,520 --> 01:51:21,720 Speaker 2: Back then he was a little bit. He's turned his 2441 01:51:21,800 --> 01:51:22,360 Speaker 2: life around. 2442 01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:26,360 Speaker 4: I got I'm gonna have that with tennis players, you 2443 01:51:26,400 --> 01:51:30,479 Speaker 4: gotta have some bizaz like it's not that's why you 2444 01:51:30,520 --> 01:51:33,599 Speaker 4: know Roger Feederer, you know, like awesome players like fred 2445 01:51:33,720 --> 01:51:36,080 Speaker 4: I like I didn't eat was she. 2446 01:51:36,160 --> 01:51:38,599 Speaker 3: And anything less would be uncivilized? Was that an Angasy? 2447 01:51:38,760 --> 01:51:40,360 Speaker 3: What was Agassy's big ads? He used to do. 2448 01:51:41,920 --> 01:51:44,639 Speaker 2: Agassy's big ads? He probably had something. 2449 01:51:44,680 --> 01:51:46,519 Speaker 5: I'm thinking he had a lot of them. Didn't think 2450 01:51:46,560 --> 01:51:50,400 Speaker 5: he had like a commercial married for a long time. 2451 01:51:50,840 --> 01:51:52,160 Speaker 5: He was with Brookshields before that. 2452 01:51:52,280 --> 01:51:55,480 Speaker 2: Those kids, those kids made it play some tennis Agasy. 2453 01:51:55,200 --> 01:51:58,559 Speaker 5: And they've been married for a while. They actually do pickleball. Now, yeah, 2454 01:51:58,880 --> 01:52:00,599 Speaker 5: I know you probably don't want it like that at all. 2455 01:52:00,640 --> 01:52:03,360 Speaker 5: You don't like the pickle just brushing it and pickle ball, well, 2456 01:52:03,400 --> 01:52:06,240 Speaker 5: they play against other former like there. 2457 01:52:06,000 --> 01:52:12,240 Speaker 7: Was Macelnoy to watch Agasy like just kind of you know, 2458 01:52:12,320 --> 01:52:12,839 Speaker 7: you can't. 2459 01:52:14,880 --> 01:52:15,880 Speaker 5: Smash each other. 2460 01:52:16,080 --> 01:52:18,639 Speaker 2: They were watching Agacy came Agassy had the big. 2461 01:52:19,320 --> 01:52:21,320 Speaker 5: You know he's talking about what he's talking about Pickle, 2462 01:52:22,800 --> 01:52:25,679 Speaker 5: But they smashed at each other. Watch but the balls 2463 01:52:25,880 --> 01:52:28,960 Speaker 5: it doesn't go as fast, but they smashed it. 2464 01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:33,360 Speaker 4: Fred's discussed for pickles. 2465 01:52:33,400 --> 01:52:35,080 Speaker 5: Why throw the bus on that? 2466 01:52:35,240 --> 01:52:37,280 Speaker 2: Watch the good It can be a fast game. It's 2467 01:52:37,400 --> 01:52:38,599 Speaker 2: very you know quick. 2468 01:52:39,760 --> 01:52:42,240 Speaker 5: And I know you're right about Agassy he was. He 2469 01:52:42,439 --> 01:52:44,639 Speaker 5: was great too. I just think Sanprus was a better player. 2470 01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:45,080 Speaker 2: That's fine. 2471 01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:47,760 Speaker 5: And I think it was not really close. Flouteen to 2472 01:52:47,840 --> 01:52:52,439 Speaker 5: eight to me is not close. That's double them up now, 2473 01:52:52,520 --> 01:52:53,080 Speaker 5: that's close. 2474 01:52:53,439 --> 01:52:54,599 Speaker 4: It's definitely not close. 2475 01:52:56,600 --> 01:53:00,600 Speaker 2: Not close game for Paul. Given that Paul said that 2476 01:53:00,640 --> 01:53:03,280 Speaker 2: he wouldn't pick Matt Light at number four, even given 2477 01:53:03,320 --> 01:53:06,240 Speaker 2: his solid career with the Patriots, which of these players 2478 01:53:06,240 --> 01:53:09,360 Speaker 2: would Paul pick at number four? I just had a gyro. 2479 01:53:10,640 --> 01:53:14,240 Speaker 2: You let me be, I might need a bib. Which 2480 01:53:14,280 --> 01:53:16,960 Speaker 2: of these players would Paul pick at number four? Knowing 2481 01:53:17,040 --> 01:53:20,120 Speaker 2: their career path? The caveat is that you either picked 2482 01:53:20,160 --> 01:53:24,320 Speaker 2: them at four or you lose them ty law, I 2483 01:53:24,479 --> 01:53:26,479 Speaker 2: take Tylard for Rodney Harrison. 2484 01:53:28,439 --> 01:53:31,520 Speaker 5: Take Tyler Rodney Harrison at four, but have a little biasedness. 2485 01:53:31,560 --> 01:53:32,320 Speaker 5: They're not gonna lie. 2486 01:53:32,439 --> 01:53:41,160 Speaker 2: Favorite guy Vince Wilfork no, Logan Mankins no, Gronk yes, yes, 2487 01:53:41,720 --> 01:53:49,560 Speaker 2: mccordy no, Wes Welker no, and lastly Drew Bledsoe Yeah, yes, okay. 2488 01:53:49,400 --> 01:53:51,400 Speaker 5: One first, or take him at one. 2489 01:53:51,560 --> 01:53:54,240 Speaker 3: Okay, that's I'm pretty lotched up with you on those ones. 2490 01:53:54,360 --> 01:53:57,400 Speaker 5: That's a great game. That's a great game. Obviously I 2491 01:53:57,400 --> 01:53:59,960 Speaker 5: would take all of those guys. They were all fantas 2492 01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:00,880 Speaker 5: astic draft picks. 2493 01:54:01,160 --> 01:54:04,040 Speaker 3: But overall, you know, you can get another nose tackles, 2494 01:54:04,120 --> 01:54:05,280 Speaker 3: you can find the slot receiver. 2495 01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:08,000 Speaker 5: He left one off there going in the way back machine. 2496 01:54:08,000 --> 01:54:10,880 Speaker 5: Who I actually think was chosen with the fourth overall selection, 2497 01:54:11,400 --> 01:54:12,320 Speaker 5: John Hannah. 2498 01:54:12,320 --> 01:54:16,000 Speaker 3: Ye, different game back then different got a running. 2499 01:54:15,840 --> 01:54:22,320 Speaker 5: Correct correct always cover your back, right, But I. 2500 01:54:23,840 --> 01:54:25,200 Speaker 3: Skinless Chicken, the same thing. 2501 01:54:25,520 --> 01:54:27,320 Speaker 4: But see, I think if it was just you got 2502 01:54:27,360 --> 01:54:30,519 Speaker 4: to adjust to this draft, like Matt Light at four 2503 01:54:30,560 --> 01:54:33,760 Speaker 4: overall in this draft might not be a bad pick. 2504 01:54:34,120 --> 01:54:37,440 Speaker 5: Which is exposing me for being a little bit Paul 2505 01:54:37,600 --> 01:54:41,680 Speaker 5: stubborn and not necessarily taking that into consideration. Yeah, you 2506 01:54:41,760 --> 01:54:44,879 Speaker 5: guys are probably right. The email clearly had an opinion. 2507 01:54:44,960 --> 01:54:47,400 Speaker 5: I think Evan same thing. Yeah, I probably would have 2508 01:54:47,440 --> 01:54:50,680 Speaker 5: to take Matt Light at four in this draft right, 2509 01:54:50,840 --> 01:54:53,880 Speaker 5: in this draft, in this draft, right. So I was 2510 01:54:53,920 --> 01:54:55,879 Speaker 5: probably a little bit rash. 2511 01:54:55,880 --> 01:55:00,320 Speaker 2: With that Jake and Melbourne Australia twelve months on. Knowing 2512 01:55:00,400 --> 01:55:03,080 Speaker 2: what we know about the top three quarterbacks from last 2513 01:55:03,160 --> 01:55:06,120 Speaker 2: year's draft, who would each of the PU crew take 2514 01:55:06,240 --> 01:55:12,200 Speaker 2: if starting their own team. I think his upsides more 2515 01:55:12,280 --> 01:55:15,760 Speaker 2: than Drake May Yep, you do. Yeah, you don't think 2516 01:55:15,800 --> 01:55:19,560 Speaker 2: we've seen what we're going to see out of Jayden Daniels. 2517 01:55:20,920 --> 01:55:23,160 Speaker 2: In other words, better is he gonna get? 2518 01:55:23,160 --> 01:55:28,560 Speaker 5: I think he'll get better as he gets experience ridiculously 2519 01:55:28,640 --> 01:55:30,960 Speaker 5: high level and it's not like he was along for 2520 01:55:31,040 --> 01:55:33,680 Speaker 5: the ride. It wasn't like a mac Jones in twenty 2521 01:55:33,760 --> 01:55:35,960 Speaker 5: one where he was handing the ball off and throwing 2522 01:55:36,000 --> 01:55:36,879 Speaker 5: three yard passes. 2523 01:55:37,120 --> 01:55:38,600 Speaker 4: You can make a case he was a top five 2524 01:55:38,680 --> 01:55:41,760 Speaker 4: quarterback in the league as a rookie, which is crazy. 2525 01:55:42,440 --> 01:55:45,120 Speaker 5: He was a large part of the reason that they 2526 01:55:45,160 --> 01:55:45,600 Speaker 5: were winning. 2527 01:55:47,680 --> 01:55:51,440 Speaker 2: H Nicholas from Oslo, Norway. If the Patriots signed Tyron 2528 01:55:51,480 --> 01:55:53,480 Speaker 2: Smith to a one year contract and kick the can 2529 01:55:53,600 --> 01:55:56,680 Speaker 2: down the road on left tackle, do next year's prospects 2530 01:55:56,760 --> 01:55:57,840 Speaker 2: look better than this year's. 2531 01:55:58,000 --> 01:55:58,720 Speaker 3: Oh boy, it's. 2532 01:55:58,640 --> 01:56:01,720 Speaker 4: Always tough to do that. It's you know, you have 2533 01:56:01,760 --> 01:56:04,240 Speaker 4: a whole another college football season to go, so I 2534 01:56:04,320 --> 01:56:07,480 Speaker 4: couldn't say definitively. I know it's supposed to be a 2535 01:56:07,520 --> 01:56:09,880 Speaker 4: little bit of a better receiver class next year, but 2536 01:56:10,560 --> 01:56:12,920 Speaker 4: not by much. Really. The receiver class everybody's waiting for 2537 01:56:13,080 --> 01:56:15,560 Speaker 4: is two years from now and Jeremiah Smith and Williams 2538 01:56:15,640 --> 01:56:15,960 Speaker 4: come out. 2539 01:56:16,120 --> 01:56:19,040 Speaker 5: So the two like seventeen year old freshman. 2540 01:56:19,320 --> 01:56:22,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's you know, it's too soon to tell. 2541 01:56:23,040 --> 01:56:24,400 Speaker 5: What do we think of Tyrone Smith? 2542 01:56:25,480 --> 01:56:25,960 Speaker 2: I like him. 2543 01:56:26,120 --> 01:56:27,080 Speaker 5: I wanted them last year. 2544 01:56:27,200 --> 01:56:28,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like him for one year. 2545 01:56:29,080 --> 01:56:31,480 Speaker 5: Ye didn't everybody tell me he refused to talk to 2546 01:56:31,520 --> 01:56:32,080 Speaker 5: them last year. 2547 01:56:32,080 --> 01:56:32,400 Speaker 3: I don't know. 2548 01:56:32,480 --> 01:56:33,160 Speaker 2: Oh I didn't hear that. 2549 01:56:34,520 --> 01:56:36,200 Speaker 5: I didn't hear you signed him this year. 2550 01:56:37,080 --> 01:56:39,600 Speaker 2: But I like him this year. But you know, it's 2551 01:56:39,640 --> 01:56:42,120 Speaker 2: not my money, and they have a lot of it. 2552 01:56:42,280 --> 01:56:47,120 Speaker 2: But I wouldn't go over twelve million for him, you know. 2553 01:56:47,240 --> 01:56:50,880 Speaker 2: And I heard it's looking for like eighteen maybe it's 2554 01:56:51,040 --> 01:56:51,320 Speaker 2: going on. 2555 01:56:51,480 --> 01:56:54,920 Speaker 5: So just to play devil's advocate, like, what would your 2556 01:56:55,000 --> 01:56:57,920 Speaker 5: rationale be for not wanting to give him six more million? 2557 01:56:58,160 --> 01:57:01,800 Speaker 2: Locker room culture paying him so much, and then we're 2558 01:57:01,800 --> 01:57:03,480 Speaker 2: going to say that a lot he's gonna he's going 2559 01:57:03,560 --> 01:57:04,760 Speaker 2: to practice two days a week. 2560 01:57:04,840 --> 01:57:07,040 Speaker 5: And but is that a lot eighteen million for a 2561 01:57:07,080 --> 01:57:07,880 Speaker 5: starting left tackle. 2562 01:57:09,000 --> 01:57:11,200 Speaker 2: Well, he's not. He's probably not gonna play every game, 2563 01:57:11,320 --> 01:57:11,680 Speaker 2: you know that. 2564 01:57:12,360 --> 01:57:16,120 Speaker 5: Okay, Well, what if he plays fourteen games? Then I 2565 01:57:16,240 --> 01:57:18,000 Speaker 5: have to maybe recon Morgan Moses. 2566 01:57:18,120 --> 01:57:21,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. I think Morgan Moses is more durable. 2567 01:57:23,160 --> 01:57:23,880 Speaker 4: It's probably fair. 2568 01:57:24,400 --> 01:57:26,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think at this stage of your career, you're 2569 01:57:26,640 --> 01:57:28,120 Speaker 5: probably not expecting seventeen guys. 2570 01:57:28,360 --> 01:57:30,920 Speaker 2: You don't want to make to manage both. But Tyron Smith, 2571 01:57:31,400 --> 01:57:32,360 Speaker 2: he's been breaking. 2572 01:57:32,160 --> 01:57:34,760 Speaker 5: Down absolutely, You're right. Yeah, I would take him, And 2573 01:57:34,880 --> 01:57:36,600 Speaker 5: I love you know that much. I love I know, 2574 01:57:36,760 --> 01:57:38,360 Speaker 5: I know you do. I would take him in a blank. 2575 01:57:38,360 --> 01:57:39,720 Speaker 5: I would have taken him last year. I think they 2576 01:57:39,840 --> 01:57:41,800 Speaker 5: made a mistake not going after him last year. And 2577 01:57:41,880 --> 01:57:43,840 Speaker 5: didn't you only get like fifteen million last year? 2578 01:57:43,920 --> 01:57:46,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, a lot of his deal last year was incentively 2579 01:57:46,440 --> 01:57:48,720 Speaker 4: and based off of how many games he played, you 2580 01:57:48,760 --> 01:57:49,640 Speaker 4: know that sort of stuff. 2581 01:57:49,680 --> 01:57:51,360 Speaker 2: So, okay, I'm willing to do that. 2582 01:57:51,480 --> 01:57:52,840 Speaker 5: I like the emailer's plan. 2583 01:57:53,080 --> 01:57:56,520 Speaker 2: If he's willing to do an incentive laden contract, let's go. 2584 01:57:56,880 --> 01:57:58,640 Speaker 5: Well, I just give him the money. They have the money. 2585 01:57:58,680 --> 01:57:59,680 Speaker 5: What are we saving it for him? 2586 01:58:00,160 --> 01:58:01,720 Speaker 4: Be the only thing that's left for him. You know, 2587 01:58:01,800 --> 01:58:04,400 Speaker 4: if he had a contract that was full of guaranteed money, 2588 01:58:04,440 --> 01:58:05,680 Speaker 4: I'm sure he would be signed already. 2589 01:58:05,760 --> 01:58:08,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I would take him. You want to talk about 2590 01:58:08,160 --> 01:58:11,280 Speaker 5: pro to he wants to go to a contender he is, 2591 01:58:11,520 --> 01:58:13,200 Speaker 5: He's the guy. I would take him in a blink. 2592 01:58:13,320 --> 01:58:17,080 Speaker 2: He was made in a lab Gary from Harvard, the town, 2593 01:58:17,200 --> 01:58:19,760 Speaker 2: not the school. For anyone who wants to see any 2594 01:58:20,000 --> 01:58:23,120 Speaker 2: pick trade, I have a question. Should the Patriots propose 2595 01:58:23,160 --> 01:58:25,120 Speaker 2: it before the draft starts or wait to see if 2596 01:58:25,120 --> 01:58:27,720 Speaker 2: anyone offers a better haul once the Patriots are on 2597 01:58:27,760 --> 01:58:30,920 Speaker 2: the clock. Obviously, trading down early risks missing out on 2598 01:58:30,960 --> 01:58:33,200 Speaker 2: a blue chip if two quarterbacks go in the top three. 2599 01:58:33,600 --> 01:58:36,560 Speaker 2: But there are risks in waiting too. All desirable players 2600 01:58:36,600 --> 01:58:38,600 Speaker 2: are gone, and and one wants to trade, and best 2601 01:58:38,640 --> 01:58:41,560 Speaker 2: partners do some other trades that disables this one. So 2602 01:58:41,640 --> 01:58:45,240 Speaker 2: he's talking about strategy. When do you trade picks? What's 2603 01:58:45,320 --> 01:58:46,000 Speaker 2: the best time. 2604 01:58:46,440 --> 01:58:48,240 Speaker 3: I think he got to wait with those with Carter 2605 01:58:48,320 --> 01:58:51,880 Speaker 3: and Hunter, potentially even it's out there that they might fall, 2606 01:58:51,960 --> 01:58:53,200 Speaker 3: I think he got a wait to see. 2607 01:58:53,320 --> 01:58:55,560 Speaker 5: I would agree with Mike, and I think in general terms, 2608 01:58:55,760 --> 01:58:57,760 Speaker 5: the teams have an idea of what's going to happen 2609 01:58:58,560 --> 01:59:00,800 Speaker 5: that we don't know. They have intel on that. 2610 01:59:01,040 --> 01:59:03,400 Speaker 3: Well, they've all been talking already, right, And I would. 2611 01:59:03,240 --> 01:59:05,320 Speaker 5: Think that you get the groundwork for a trade done 2612 01:59:05,640 --> 01:59:07,920 Speaker 5: ahead of time, but I wouldn't do it until them. 2613 01:59:08,200 --> 01:59:11,080 Speaker 2: One of the most hated callers is on the line, 2614 01:59:11,160 --> 01:59:12,960 Speaker 2: Christian from La Christian. 2615 01:59:14,560 --> 01:59:17,080 Speaker 19: I know right, Christian, I have become the guy that 2616 01:59:17,160 --> 01:59:21,000 Speaker 19: people want to respond to directly, like the JABRONI last week. 2617 01:59:21,000 --> 01:59:22,240 Speaker 20: Or who with the hammer? 2618 01:59:22,280 --> 01:59:23,040 Speaker 2: And who the Briggs? 2619 01:59:23,600 --> 01:59:24,000 Speaker 3: You know what? 2620 01:59:24,520 --> 01:59:25,080 Speaker 13: What's going on? 2621 01:59:25,240 --> 01:59:25,480 Speaker 14: Guys? 2622 01:59:26,000 --> 01:59:27,920 Speaker 2: How you doing? Heay? 2623 01:59:28,120 --> 01:59:31,360 Speaker 20: So here's the thing that my friend was talking yesterday, 2624 01:59:31,800 --> 01:59:35,440 Speaker 20: and we said, if we took the Patriots teams that 2625 01:59:36,080 --> 01:59:39,880 Speaker 20: at least made the NFC Championship, and we put togeler 2626 01:59:39,960 --> 01:59:43,680 Speaker 20: a tournament of just those teams, which team do you 2627 01:59:43,760 --> 01:59:45,840 Speaker 20: guys think would come out top of the car. You 2628 01:59:45,880 --> 01:59:48,920 Speaker 20: can't obviously say, you know, the undefeated team besides the 2629 01:59:49,040 --> 01:59:52,280 Speaker 20: defeated team, which team if we bracketed all the Patriots 2630 01:59:52,320 --> 01:59:56,320 Speaker 20: teams that made the the AFC Championship, which team do 2631 01:59:56,360 --> 01:59:57,480 Speaker 20: you guys think would come on top? 2632 01:59:57,800 --> 01:59:59,240 Speaker 4: Why can't you pick the undefeated team. 2633 01:59:59,280 --> 02:00:02,880 Speaker 5: You're picking team you won, right, Well, okay, four? Are 2634 02:00:02,920 --> 02:00:04,480 Speaker 5: you asking who I think the best team was that 2635 02:00:04,520 --> 02:00:06,280 Speaker 5: they never had is two thousand and four. In my opinion, 2636 02:00:06,520 --> 02:00:07,280 Speaker 5: it's not so much. 2637 02:00:07,160 --> 02:00:09,680 Speaker 20: About the best team sometimes, right, it's about the team 2638 02:00:09,760 --> 02:00:12,120 Speaker 20: that would win the game based on styles like some 2639 02:00:12,280 --> 02:00:13,040 Speaker 20: teams we have more. 2640 02:00:13,000 --> 02:00:15,800 Speaker 5: Two thousand and four. Yeah, four could win anyway anyway 2641 02:00:15,800 --> 02:00:16,200 Speaker 5: they want. 2642 02:00:16,600 --> 02:00:18,320 Speaker 2: They once and they could beat you with defense. They 2643 02:00:18,400 --> 02:00:20,800 Speaker 2: beat you with yours and they were well rounded, like 2644 02:00:21,280 --> 02:00:23,120 Speaker 2: Andre Agassy, they were well, they. 2645 02:00:23,120 --> 02:00:25,480 Speaker 5: Were well rounded, but not as good as Pete Sampers. 2646 02:00:25,800 --> 02:00:28,240 Speaker 2: I'm not as good as seven. I take they were 2647 02:00:28,280 --> 02:00:31,280 Speaker 2: better than seven Pete Samples was better than seven. Four 2648 02:00:31,320 --> 02:00:33,560 Speaker 2: team Agassy Yeah better than seven? 2649 02:00:33,800 --> 02:00:35,880 Speaker 19: Yepte? 2650 02:00:36,200 --> 02:00:36,880 Speaker 2: Who's on first? 2651 02:00:37,720 --> 02:00:40,120 Speaker 19: I got who's the one team? 2652 02:00:40,880 --> 02:00:41,960 Speaker 2: Who's the one team? 2653 02:00:42,400 --> 02:00:42,520 Speaker 3: Uh? 2654 02:00:42,840 --> 02:00:45,280 Speaker 5: They're in the playing tournament with the eighteen team. 2655 02:00:45,440 --> 02:00:46,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go. 2656 02:00:48,800 --> 02:00:52,720 Speaker 19: But so this thing, you guys know people that directly 2657 02:00:52,800 --> 02:00:55,600 Speaker 19: better than Augusty just because of records, Like we all 2658 02:00:55,680 --> 02:00:59,560 Speaker 19: know people people viewed Aaron Rodgers as the best quarterback 2659 02:00:59,600 --> 02:01:04,200 Speaker 19: basically ever, mechanically and gil wise, although Tom Brady is 2660 02:01:04,240 --> 02:01:07,480 Speaker 19: the best because he has the most championships, right, No, I. 2661 02:01:07,520 --> 02:01:10,880 Speaker 5: Think Brady is a better player, Like in those all 2662 02:01:10,920 --> 02:01:12,880 Speaker 5: those things that you're talking about count and when you're 2663 02:01:13,440 --> 02:01:15,880 Speaker 5: categorizing a player, how they play in the clutch, how 2664 02:01:15,920 --> 02:01:18,000 Speaker 5: they come from behind, how they lead their teams. That 2665 02:01:18,280 --> 02:01:21,000 Speaker 5: that all counts. And Brady's better than Rogers and all 2666 02:01:21,000 --> 02:01:23,880 Speaker 5: those regards. Now, if you want to say best passer, 2667 02:01:24,400 --> 02:01:26,200 Speaker 5: then you might have an argument that Rogers is the best. 2668 02:01:26,960 --> 02:01:29,440 Speaker 2: Now you're talking about like Rogers and Marino. 2669 02:01:29,280 --> 02:01:32,000 Speaker 5: Right, they might. They might throw the ball physically better 2670 02:01:32,040 --> 02:01:34,200 Speaker 5: than Brady George. They're not better quarterbacks than Braid. I 2671 02:01:34,240 --> 02:01:35,720 Speaker 5: don't think a lot of people think Rogers is a 2672 02:01:35,720 --> 02:01:40,120 Speaker 5: better quarterback than see Jeff George throw good looking, seriously 2673 02:01:40,320 --> 02:01:44,400 Speaker 5: Joe Milton esque, unbelievable, Jeff George. 2674 02:01:46,920 --> 02:01:50,640 Speaker 2: Thanks Christian, we got to Gotriots two one. 2675 02:01:51,120 --> 02:01:52,040 Speaker 5: There's an argument for that. 2676 02:01:52,760 --> 02:01:57,000 Speaker 2: Thanks everyone for listening today, Watching Catch twenty two tomorrow 2677 02:01:57,080 --> 02:01:57,800 Speaker 2: at noon tomorrow. 2678 02:01:57,960 --> 02:01:59,960 Speaker 5: Visit this tournament on Thursday. 2679 02:02:00,160 --> 02:02:00,760 Speaker 2: What tournament? 2680 02:02:00,880 --> 02:02:03,040 Speaker 5: This Patriots tournament that Christian just came up with. 2681 02:02:03,200 --> 02:02:05,720 Speaker 2: All right, yeah, and relating it to tennis or not? 2682 02:02:05,880 --> 02:02:09,919 Speaker 5: Maybe okay, Agacy was better than the tournament than Sampres. 2683 02:02:10,040 --> 02:02:13,520 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, all right, we'll talk about that on Thursday. 2684 02:02:13,600 --> 02:02:15,000 Speaker 2: Maybe see you then. 2685 02:02:16,200 --> 02:02:17,879 Speaker 10: Thank you for downloading this podcast. 2686 02:02:18,200 --> 02:02:21,440 Speaker 1: Subscribe on Apple, google Play, and everywhere else you listen. 2687 02:02:21,840 --> 02:02:25,000 Speaker 1: Like the show, please rate and review us.
