There's such an insatiable appetite for these mock drafts. 28 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: I don't care what your opinion might be at the 29 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 2: mock drafts, Darren urban that boy needs to be filled 30 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 2: on a daily basis between now and the draft twenty 31 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 2: twenty four daily. 32 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 3: That's a lot. I will say, Darren loves himself a 33 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 3: mock draft because I guess not. 34 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 4: Other people's body. 35 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 3: The Cardinals, just the Cardinals. 36 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: No, but I mean, like one sounds kind of that 37 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: sounds kind of pretentious. 38 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 4: Well, it surely is poly click bait. But I'm a 39 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 4: pro football folk. 40 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: I'm moving back in my face. 41 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 4: The Pro Football Focus mock simulator. Yes, I've gotten a 42 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 4: little obsessed with it. Even my son was saw me 43 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 4: on the couch last the other night when we were 44 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 4: watching the Suns and I started doing another one, and 45 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 4: he looked at me and he goes, you're doing another. 46 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 3: One of those, your son, and I can relate, Darren. 47 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 4: I can't wait till I send the whole folder of 48 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 4: all of my mock drafts to Danny right before the draft. 49 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 2: But wait a minute, Okay, I know the hit right 50 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: in these mock drafts typically is like two out of 51 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 2: thirty two picks. It's usually the average, which is beyond abysmal. 52 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: But do you take any substance from the fact that 53 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 2: the return for trading away number four seems to be increasing? 54 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 2: The most recent one from the Athletic by the Way, says, yes, 55 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 2: Minnesota's gonna have to give up eleven and twenty three 56 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: and a twenty twenty five first round pick. 57 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 4: See for me, I don't nobody knows that this. Nobody 58 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 4: knows how much is going to cost to make a trade, 59 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 4: just like nobody knows who's gonna get picked where. To me, 60 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 4: the point of substance, I mean, the way the simulator 61 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 4: that I use is just it's fun to mess around 62 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 4: with and make all these trades that were never gonna happen. 63 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 4: But for me, the biggest actual reason that I like 64 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 4: doing it that actually gives me some something to it 65 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 4: is because I keep doing like seven round like I'm 66 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 4: doing the entire draft, so like I know a lot 67 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 4: more names and have an idea of a lot more 68 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 4: players than I ever would have otherwise, because you keep 69 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 4: going through these mock drafts and you're seeing these names 70 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 4: pop up. And now, whether those players are really ones 71 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 4: that the Cardinals might be interested or would be falling 72 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 4: in the same place, I'm not sure. But I know 73 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 4: of a lot more players of their existence and that 74 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 4: kind of thing than I ever would have before. Because 75 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 4: of this, you have to take. 76 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 3: The mock drafts with a grain of salt when you're 77 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 3: talking about the trade scenario specifically, we can talk about 78 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 3: what we think it might take from Minnesota to trade 79 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 3: up from eleven to four with the Cardinals, how do 80 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 3: we know that there's not going to be a bidding 81 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 3: war that New York at six, I don't know, you 82 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 3: wouldn't get as much Denver at eight. I mean with Champaigne, 83 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 3: they could be going all in twelve twelve. Sorry. So 84 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 3: when you're taking into account the trades and what it 85 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 3: would take from someone like Minnesota, that that's something to 86 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 3: keep in mind is we can talk about what it 87 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 3: would take, but there could be another team on the 88 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 3: other line and they're offering more and so okay, or 89 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 3: or it could be a situation where we haven't talked 90 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 3: about this a whole lot. I don't think we could 91 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 3: have another situation like last year where maniasin Fort traded 92 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: down and then back up. So there could be a 93 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 3: scenario where the Cardinals trade out of four and we 94 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 3: might be thinking, what, like you, you really didn't get 95 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 3: a lot. And the whole reason the Cardinals traded out 96 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 3: of four was because they knew they were going to 97 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 3: trade up from maybe eleven to six or well that 98 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 3: would it makes sense because New York wouldn't trade down 99 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 3: they need a quarterback. But you get my point. We're 100 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 3: talking about the trades is with a grain of salts. 101 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 2: So consider between the two of you, you've done some 102 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 2: like five or six dozen of these simulators. Are you 103 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: getting more in return for trading out at number four 104 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 2: now than you did two months ago? 105 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 4: Not on the Pro Football Focus one. No, it's still and. 106 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 2: It's simulators still giving to the same return. 107 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. Well usually it's funny because for me when we're 108 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 4: doing the trades, like the way this simulator works is 109 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 4: like when you're about to be on the clock. On 110 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 4: the clock, it gives you X number of teams want 111 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 4: to trade with you, and then you check to see 112 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 4: what teams want to trade with you, and and oftentimes 113 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 4: at four there's like, I don't know, eight teams that 114 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 4: want to trade, but not all of them are what 115 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 4: you you know, sometimes as Minnesota, I usually don't. I 116 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 4: usually don't trade down that far. Usually the only the 117 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 4: team I've probably traded with the most in my little 118 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 4: simulator is the Giants at six, and because I only 119 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 4: have to go down too spots or the Tennessee Titans 120 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 4: at seven. A couple of times that's happened, which is 121 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 4: always hilarious because a couple of times I've traded down thinking, Okay, 122 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 4: they're coming up to get a quarterback. Somebody's coming up 123 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 4: to get a quarterback, so that I'll trade down on 124 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 4: one of these top three receivers will still be there, 125 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 4: and then one of the receivers goes and the number 126 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 4: four spot. Anyways, it's it's kind of funny. 127 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 2: So am I putting you on the spot? If I asked, 128 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 2: what do you get for going from four to six? 129 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 2: Do you get a round two pick for that? What 130 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 2: do you get? Yeah? 131 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 4: It was I think a lot of times I end 132 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 4: up getting something like you swap four for six and 133 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 4: then you get the Giants like second round pick, and 134 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 4: then I think i've I'm in the past, I've gotten 135 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 4: something like a fourth round or for next year or something. 136 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,919 Speaker 4: The funniest one was trading back. I think I traded 137 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 4: back with the Titans once. So I went from four 138 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 4: to seven, I got and I think we went from 139 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 4: four to seven, and then I got rounds two. They 140 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 4: didn't have a third round pick next year, because I 141 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 4: think the Cardinals have it. No, I don't know, they 142 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 4: don't have a third round pick. But I got Tennessee's second, fourth, fifth, sixth, 143 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 4: and seventh from going from four to seven, and it 144 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 4: ended up Marvin Harrison ended up being on the board 145 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 4: at seven anyway. So it was like, that's never ever 146 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 4: gonna happen. 147 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 2: People, You know what, No Marvin Harrison on the board 148 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 2: at seven. Yeah, I mean, that's that violates the whole 149 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 2: ninety five percent confidence interval deal that they taught you 150 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 2: in stats class back in college. Taught me that that's 151 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 2: just not that's not feasible, plausible, absolutely no chance whatsoever. 152 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 2: So here's the athletic mock draft, Danny, because I know 153 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 2: you're dying to know. Sure, am, Cardinals trade number four 154 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 2: to Minnesota, they take JJ McCarthy. Once again, let there 155 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 2: be a fourth QB. Cardinals cash at in for number eleven, 156 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: number twenty three, a twenty twenty five round one pick, 157 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: and then at eleven they take Terry on Arnold, the 158 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 2: corner out of Alabama. Absolutely plausible, no doubt. At twenty 159 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 2: three they take Brian Thomas Junior. Yes, they need a receiver. 160 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 2: They take a receiver at number twenty seven. Here's the 161 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 2: new name release for me that I haven't seen. Gerson Newton, 162 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: the d lineman out of Illinois. 163 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 4: Well, I think one of the reasons you haven't seen 164 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 4: that name is because most people think he's going before 165 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 4: twenty seven. 166 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: Really okay? And then edgarn Cooper, who I'm familiar with, 167 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 2: the A and M inside linebacker who pound for pound 168 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: might be the toughest, nastiest dude in this draft. They 169 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 2: have him going to the Cardinals at thirty five, an 170 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 2: off ball linebacker in inside linebacker in the second round. 171 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 2: H in the second round, which okay, So let's hit 172 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: zoom out here, because if you're Maniasipport, you have to 173 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: work a year ahead. Are you taking a running back 174 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: in this draft? Because James Connor is in the final 175 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 2: year of his deal. Yes, are you going oh line 176 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 2: in this draft? Strictly because as Craig Grieolo pointed out 177 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 2: to me, and you can't spell Griolu without the ai 178 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 2: that only three offensive linemen are under contract beyond twenty 179 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 2: twenty four. So do you continue to invest significant assets 180 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 2: into your old line? 181 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 3: Yes? 182 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 2: Because beyond this and then at linebacker, guess what, Kaizier 183 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 2: White's in the second year of a two year deal. 184 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 2: So is there a future? Is that an underrated or 185 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 2: sleeper position we're not considering. 186 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 3: I couldn't it be an under sleeper position and you 187 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 3: don't take it at thirty five? Are those Mike right? 188 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 3: Can it be a sleeper position? And I don't have 189 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 3: to take it at thirty five? And I take take 190 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 3: an offensive lineman? 191 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 2: But because that position just put my finger to the wind, 192 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 2: is sort of a depressed piece of real estate these days. 193 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 2: Inside linebacker, I would say that if this guy really 194 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 2: is a baller and a game changer and a difference maker, 195 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,599 Speaker 2: and if you were to get him at thirty five. 196 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 4: I agree, Like again, considering the. 197 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 2: Brand of ball that JG wants to play, and he's nasty. 198 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 4: First of all, I want to apologize for all those 199 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 4: who keep writing into me and telling me how Paul 200 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 4: Calvicy is stupid for keeping bringing up all the trade 201 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 4: downs because they hate him, because he's the one bringing 202 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 4: the truth. 203 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 3: Why it could happen to me mine? You wouldn't say 204 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 3: any of that to his face. 205 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: Well they might, but did you have to throw the 206 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 2: word all like all those people like you know, there's. 207 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 4: There's been multiple people. Okay, now, unfortunately it's because you're 208 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 4: setting up the trades that let's face it, this isn't 209 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 4: implausible now getting what Mania support did last year exactly. 210 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 4: I will say that the off ball linebacker would be interesting. 211 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 4: But again I'm gonna say this about all these people 212 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 4: and you here's a good example. If you are somebody 213 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 4: who are saying, for instance, this team would be dumb 214 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,079 Speaker 4: to pass on Marvin Harrison at four because X, Y 215 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 4: and Z and he's generational blah blah blah blah. You 216 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 4: can't argue against the possibility of an off ball linebacker 217 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 4: at thirty five if you believe you're getting this next 218 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 4: level player in this position that normally you wouldn't be 219 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 4: able to get him at So I'm not ruling anything out, 220 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 4: and the idea that Manias Sport should rule any of 221 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 4: this out is goofy. 222 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 3: That's the give and take of every draft, not just 223 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 3: the first round picks. You get to a point of 224 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,559 Speaker 3: having to toe the line of best player available or 225 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 3: position of need. Sometimes that position of need isn't a 226 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,839 Speaker 3: great need this year, but maybe in the next one 227 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 3: or two years. And if that player is so good 228 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 3: that when they develop, they're going to be here for 229 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 3: a long time, that helps your case of taking an 230 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 3: off ball linebacker at thirty five. 231 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 4: I want to take some of the heat off Paul. Here. Wow, 232 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 4: I'm gonna I'm going to name four names, and I 233 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 4: want you to tell me why they have relevance here. 234 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 2: Relevance Okay, that's sort of broad term, but here we go. 235 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 3: Spotlights on you, Paul, Okay, and I. 236 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 2: Have something to say about the inside linebackers, so don't 237 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 2: let me forget about that. 238 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 4: Here we go. Peter Warwick, Charles Rogers, oh boy, justin Blackman, 239 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 4: Sammy Watkins. 240 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, all top five bus. 241 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 4: All top five wide receiver buss. 242 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. In fact, don't make me match that with my 243 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 2: list if I can find it here on the fly 244 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 2: of the last decade. Here it is receivers taken in 245 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 2: the top seven picks in the last decade, Okay, Sammy 246 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 2: Watkins fourth, Yeah, Mike Evans seventh, good, Amari Cooper fourth, 247 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 2: pretty good, not fourth, Kevin White seventh disaster for former 248 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 2: cardinal great, Yeah, Corey Davis fifth disaster. Mike Williams talented, 249 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 2: always injured. Chargers. Mike Williams, Yeah, yep, Chargers, Mike Williams, 250 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase fifth, Okay, we'll give you, We'll give you, 251 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase. Jalen Waddles sixth, pretty good, pretty good, but sixth. 252 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 2: So when the whole trade scenario came up, and I 253 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 2: think it was Rick Spielman, right thirty third team, I 254 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 2: think was the content provider, Rick Spielman, former Vikings GM, 255 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: And he went on a podcast and he said, and 256 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 2: this is within the week, if I'm in the Arizona 257 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 2: Cardinals and I'm trading with the Minnesota Vikings, I need 258 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 2: more than eleven and twenty three. I need that round 259 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 2: one twenty twenty five. Is exactly what that athletic mock 260 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: dross he just read. 261 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 4: Is he sticking it to the Vikings by bringing that up. 262 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 2: And then he threw in, then he threw in. If 263 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 2: not that round one pick. If I'm the Cardinals, I 264 00:12:53,080 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 2: asked for Justin Jefferson and we hashed this outing this 265 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 2: out here in the studio. But wait a minute. You 266 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 2: gotta pay him, and you got to pay him handsomely. 267 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 4: Yes you do. We get that you would have a 268 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 4: lot of money invested in your quarterback and wide receiver 269 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 4: one a lot. 270 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 2: But you know what, you don't have a bust in 271 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 2: the top five receiver busts that have been chronic receiver 272 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: in the first round has had the lowest hit rate 273 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 2: of any position group in recent NFL history. Do we 274 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 2: think that Marvin Harrison Junior is going to be a bust? No, 275 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 2: we don't, but but it does eliminate any prospect thereof 276 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 2: and you have a plug in play, arguably the best 277 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,199 Speaker 2: all around receiver in the game, ready to go Day one, 278 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 2: Week one. If you go for Justin Jefferson, yes you 279 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 2: have to pay him. But now you take those other 280 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 2: first round picks and you're going after corner edge aline 281 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 2: however you deem it and you don't have to worry 282 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 2: about receiver. 283 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 4: It's funny because I remember Jerry Sullivan in his second 284 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 4: go round with the Cardinals. Was here the year Justin 285 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 4: Jefferson got drafted, and I remember talking to him. What 286 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 4: year was Justin Jefferson in the rookie I'm trying to remember. 287 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 2: Three years ago because he's coming up, he's going to 288 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 2: be eligible. He Zavin Collins Draft, but he does not 289 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 2: turn twenty five until this summer. He's still twenty four 290 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: years of age. 291 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 4: Maybe it was the Isaiah Simmons draft. Whichever it was, 292 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 4: I remember thinking, I remember talking to Jerry Sullivan saying, 293 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 4: because of where we are receiver, we wouldn't be taking 294 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 4: him with our first pick. But he goes, Justin Jefferson 295 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 4: is going to be great now. Jerry Sullivan before he 296 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 4: came to the Cardinals was at LSU doing stuff, so 297 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 4: he had some personal but he was right Justin Jefferson, 298 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 4: LSU churning out some good receivers. I almost said to him. 299 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 2: By the way, he went number twenty two overall in 300 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 2: twenty twenty. 301 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 4: Okay, so that was the Isaiah Simmons drafty. But again 302 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 4: the Cardinals still had fits. They still had Christian Kirk, 303 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 4: and they still had DeAndre Hopkins. 304 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 2: So and the Isaiah Simmons takes us back to the 305 00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 2: inside linebacker conversation. I'll just say this, did I Jia 306 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 2: Simmons workout at number eight? Absolutely not. Did you have 307 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 2: a chance in that draft to take Tristan Wurse, Yes, 308 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 2: you did. The next year he took Zavion Collins, who 309 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 2: started as an inside linebacker is now an outside linebacker. 310 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 2: I get it, but don't minimize the impact that Fred 311 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 2: Warner as for the forty nine ers. Don't minimize what 312 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 2: Rokwan Smith does for the Ravens. If you get that 313 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 2: guy at inside linebacker, it can absolutely be the epicenter 314 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 2: of your defense. 315 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 4: Well, that's why Steve Kim at the time wanted to 316 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 4: Simmons and Zavan Collins was exactly that. 317 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 2: Because Tampa had just won the Super Bowl and for 318 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 2: everything that Tom Brady was that defense with Levonte David 319 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 2: and Devin White. Yes, and it's a copycat league. So 320 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 2: you can't tell me that Steve Kim at the time 321 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 2: didn't look at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers ago, Yes, please, 322 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 2: we need one of those, and he went for middle linebacker, 323 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 2: or at least so he thought. 324 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 3: I think that's fair. It's it's a good and intriguing 325 00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 3: spot to be when the Cardinals have so many needs right, like, 326 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 3: it would make sense to take a wide receiver at 327 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 3: four overall, when we are hearing how impactful they can 328 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 3: be and how they can transition some of these top 329 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 3: receivers the success they had in college into the pros. 330 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 3: Because the Cardinals have so many needs elsewhere, and because 331 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 3: the draft is not as deep in other positions, it 332 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 3: also makes sense to trade down in my opinion, and 333 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 3: then address those needs. And then where this draft is 334 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 3: deep and wide receiver in offensive line, you take them 335 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 3: a little later, or you address a linebacker because again, 336 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 3: why that might not be the most pressing need this year, 337 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 3: it could be next year. And you bring up a 338 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 3: great point, Paul, that they could a linebacker who is 339 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 3: a ballhawk, who plays nasty, who is fierce, fits the 340 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 3: type of player that Jonathan gen wants to have on 341 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 3: this defense. 342 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 2: Cardinals defense wasn't nearly the same in my opinion after 343 00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 2: Kaiser White was injured. Agreed, so, but then again, you 344 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 2: hit on Kaiser White. That was a great signing last offseason. 345 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 2: But once again, these gms work a year ahead of times. 346 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 2: So with that in mind, to what degree do you 347 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 2: guys think running back is on the draft radar. 348 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 3: I think it absolutely is. James Connor is going into 349 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 3: his final year, correct, Correct. 350 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 4: You have so those Michael Carter, you. 351 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 3: Have the pieces. It looked like once we got near 352 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,439 Speaker 3: the end of the season, and because Michael Carter was 353 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 3: a late addition, so once he had a couple of 354 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 3: weeks under his belt, you could see how it worked 355 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 3: out nicely. Of he was shifty and he was fast, 356 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 3: and to have that paired with the bulldozer that James 357 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 3: Connor is and then you have a Mari de Mercado 358 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 3: more as your block or your third down running back 359 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 3: James Connor as I feel like Darren at this point 360 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 3: doesn't have the track record of having a fully healthy season. 361 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 3: And do you feel comfortable with who you have in 362 00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 3: that running back's room to have somebody step in as 363 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 3: the number one running back in the way that offensive 364 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 3: coordinator Drew Petson likes to run the ball. So it 365 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 3: would not surprise me if there is a running back 366 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 3: that maybe fits more of the style of James Connor 367 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 3: to have in that room and to kind of work 368 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 3: towards maybe not a true number two. If you want 369 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 3: to have the difference and have that balance of still 370 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 3: having Connor and then Carter, but start developing a running back. 371 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 3: I think it'll also be interesting to see, when we 372 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 3: get a chance, whenever that may be, to talk to 373 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,479 Speaker 3: special teams coordinator Jeff Rogers of the changes and all 374 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 3: of these special teams plays and the kickoffs and all 375 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 3: of that. I mean, how is that going to change 376 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 3: roster configuration and how is that going to change the draft? 377 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 3: And maybe maybe a shifty running back is a little 378 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 3: bit more of a priority for those reasons as well. 379 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 3: I know that they signed DJ Dallas, so maybe not 380 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 3: so much this year in that sense, But I do 381 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 3: think when you're looking at the running back's room, I 382 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 3: think it would be wise if you if they see 383 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 3: a running back that they see could fit similarly to 384 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 3: what Connor does, it would make sense to draft one 385 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 3: for the future. 386 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 2: I mean, for everything that Michael Carter is, you're not 387 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 2: running him between the tackles fifteen times a game. So 388 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 2: if you're if you're without James Connor, Okay, DJ Dallas, 389 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 2: I just looked it up five ten, two fourteen, a 390 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 2: little more equipped, but all right, I think you are 391 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 2: in the market. You know, maybe there's a free agent 392 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,959 Speaker 2: running back right before camp that, you know, a veteran 393 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 2: with some size. 394 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 4: That's what makes me hesitate on this. In terms of 395 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 4: the draft. I'm not saying they wouldn't take somebody, but 396 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 4: you've got so many holes, so many places that could 397 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 4: I see a situation where they take a running back. 398 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 4: Absolutely could I see a situation where they get on 399 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 4: the drafts last day and they decide to take I 400 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 4: don't know, an extra cornerback or an extra tackle, or 401 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 4: an extra guard or whatever, and not burn up pick 402 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 4: on a running back because you not only feel like 403 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 4: you can find those guys wherever, but also it's gonna 404 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 4: be easier. The idea of having one now makes sense 405 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 4: to me. I don't know if that's a position as 406 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 4: opposed to like when you brought up the inside linebacker 407 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 4: or an offensive lineman or whatever tackle. I don't know 408 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,719 Speaker 4: if that's a position where you're like, well, you know, 409 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 4: if we need one next year, you can draft one. 410 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 4: Next year, you'll find one. Next year, you'll be able 411 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 4: to get one. I think that's a little bit easier 412 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 4: to say. That doesn't mean they wouldn't, but that's kind 413 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 4: of how I'm seeing it. 414 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 2: Well, and if you're looking at okay, you wait this 415 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 2: till next off season. Guess what running back as a 416 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 2: history of being able to plug and play right out of. 417 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 4: The truck exactly. 418 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 2: If there's one position group, yeah, you can take it. 419 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 4: And you never know who's going to be on the 420 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 4: free agent market is yeah. 421 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:46,360 Speaker 2: No, you're right. 422 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 3: So, yeah, we saw the running backs carousel this free agency. 423 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 2: By the way, you're talking about, you know, dialing some 424 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 2: stuff up, you know, with the offense there, Danny, what 425 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 2: if you had a four to two one guy as 426 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 2: your slot receiver in the whole Tyreek Hill role. Because 427 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy reportedly has a top thirty visit to the 428 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,199 Speaker 2: Cardinals this week, and if you tally up all the 429 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 2: reported top thirty visits, nearly one fourth of the top 430 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 2: thirty seven so far have been receivers. 431 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 4: Well, I think when you look at their room, it's 432 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 4: pretty obvious they got to go in that direction. I 433 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 4: do want to clarify one thing, and this has nothing 434 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 4: to do with you, Paul. 435 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 3: For a long time, so he goes from comment Paul, top. 436 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 4: Thirty visit, it's just a thirty visit because the top 437 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 4: thirty implies some kind of like hierarchy, and it's just 438 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 4: they get thirty visits. 439 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 2: True, that's true. You're right. It is a You're right, 440 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 2: it's thirty visits. It's not like top thirty and then 441 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 2: you get the next thirty. 442 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's like he's in our top thirty guys. 443 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 4: And I think that misleads some people. 444 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 2: Okay, so a thirty visit and uh the other some 445 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 2: of the other names that have come through recently if 446 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 2: you take a look at it, include like Latu Latu, 447 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 2: the edge guy, Dallas Turner. So there have been those guys. 448 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 2: There have been defensive tackles that have come through. By 449 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 2: the way, hard not to notice that the guy drafted 450 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 2: just ahead of Isaiah Simmons in that draft, Derek Brown, 451 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 2: just got paid al grande by Carolina. In fact, that 452 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 2: has been a trend this offseason, has it, not edge 453 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 2: guys and defensive linemen getting big, big contracts. So once again, 454 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 2: for all you haters out there, I'm just saying that 455 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 2: there's a lot of receivers in this draft. You can 456 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 2: wait and take receiver end around one top round two. 457 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:35,719 Speaker 2: Can you wait on an edge or a defensive lineman. Hence, 458 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 2: if you are going to trade down from four, because 459 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 2: I do not believe that there's an edge or d 460 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 2: lineman worthy of number four. But I would agree with 461 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 2: that if you trade down from four, I think you 462 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 2: almost have to first and foremost consider defensive front at eleven, 463 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 2: twelve or thirteen. Let's just say that's where you end 464 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 2: up and then wait for receiver later because supply exists 465 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,360 Speaker 2: with the receivers and it does not exist with those 466 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 2: defensive lineman and an edge guys. I would agree with that, 467 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 2: and it's almost reverse engineering. 468 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 4: And I do and again, I this is going to 469 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 4: irritate greatly at a vast majority of listeners here, But 470 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 4: I do think that if you choose not to go 471 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 4: after especially one of those top three receivers, I think 472 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 4: there's going to be almost all of them there when 473 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 4: whether you're picking a twenty three or twenty seven, because 474 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,879 Speaker 4: I think you're gonna end up you're gonna have a 475 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 4: run on defensive players, I think. And then I think 476 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 4: you're gonna have a run on tackles, which Cardinals might 477 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 4: want to get in on that too, But like, I 478 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 4: think that's going to fill up the middle part of 479 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 4: the round. First round. In my opinion, here's the other thing. 480 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 2: I mean, some of these names I'm gonna rattle off 481 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 2: in other years, more pedestrian years for receiver, these guys 482 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: would be first round picks, like a d Mitchell six 483 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 2: two two o five four three four forty. We talk 484 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 2: about Brian Thomas, he's been wide receiver rising the three 485 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 2: three forty six y three nearly. You got guys like 486 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 2: Keon Coleman, Xavier Lagedete out of South Carolina, whos a 487 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 2: Deebo Samuel DJ Moore type. I mean, there's a lot 488 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 2: of really talented dudes, the lad mcconkey's and Ricky Piersoll's 489 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 2: and even Troy Franklin, the number one receiver out of Oregon, 490 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: who's nearly sixty three and he was bow Nix's guy. 491 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 2: I there's just there's a lot of talent at that position. 492 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,120 Speaker 2: And once again justin Jefferson the latest example at number 493 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 2: twenty two and might be the best receiver in the game. 494 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 3: The most important thing is that you draft a wide 495 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 3: receiver that can come and be a starter. That that, 496 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 3: to me, is regardless of where you're taking them. It 497 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 3: can't be a situation where okay, like yeah, they might 498 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 3: need a little bit of time, or they could be 499 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 3: like a one, B or two receiver. It's very clear 500 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 3: that this team is missing a true number one receiver. 501 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 3: That's that's what you have to hit on. And even 502 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:57,439 Speaker 3: if that happens a little later the twenty three twenty 503 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 3: seven range, we haven't really talked about the pro of 504 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 3: trading up one of those, you know, the second pick, 505 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 3: or if they trade down or anything like that. I 506 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 3: do think that you can still get a very impactful 507 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 3: starting wide receiver when you draft a little bit lower. 508 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 3: That's just the key to me is I don't know 509 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 3: that this is a position that you can really wait 510 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 3: past maybe thirty five that topic at the second round, 511 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 3: I will. 512 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 4: I do think that Cardinals need a starter. I don't 513 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 4: think there's any question about that, a starting receiver. I 514 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,959 Speaker 4: think with the Trey McBride thing in the way, this 515 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 4: offense kind of unfolded. I don't know if you have 516 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 4: to have the number one target on your passing offense 517 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 4: be this guy. And that makes it a little bit. 518 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 4: I think it gives Monty asipfort a little bit more 519 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 4: of a flexibility, let's say, because not everybody, even if 520 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 4: they're going to be good, is necessarily going to drop 521 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 4: in and be unbelievable. I mean, Larry Fitzgerald's rookie year 522 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 4: was solid, but it wasn't knowing was writing all this 523 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 4: guy's going to the Hall of Fame. 524 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:03,959 Speaker 2: That's good word for it. 525 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 4: Solid And so what kind of patience does the team 526 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 4: have for that in this situation with a receiver? What 527 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 4: kind of patience not that it matters in the long run, 528 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 4: what kind of patience does the fan base have with that? 529 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 4: If you get a guy at twenty three or twenty 530 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 4: seven or thirty five or whatever it might be, and 531 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 4: he's solid this year, and you play better football and 532 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 4: then he ends up trending up? Is everybody going to 533 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 4: be pulling their hair out if Marvin Harrison's out there 534 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 4: getting thirteen hundred yards? 535 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 2: I mean, the Houston Texans traded a second round pick 536 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 2: to Buffalo for Stefan Dix. 537 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,360 Speaker 4: Well one year is Stephan Dicks. 538 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 2: Why it's a loaded wide receiver draft? Well, may I 539 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 2: surmise because he's plug and play, he's proven. You know 540 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 2: what you have day one. He goes in there, he 541 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 2: has the experience, he has the production, and you don't 542 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 2: have to wait on his development to your point, for 543 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 2: a receiver to go through that learning curve. Now, tang 544 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 2: Dell was head of the curve for the Houston Texans. 545 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 2: He was really impressive in that game Cardinals played in Houston. 546 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 2: But if you're Houston and you're thinking, all right, we 547 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 2: just want a playoff game and we have a chance 548 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 2: to compete, I don't want to wait for a rookie receiver, 549 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:16,120 Speaker 2: so they go after Stefan Diggs. To me, that would 550 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 2: be a positive. With Justin Jefferson, don't have to worry 551 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 2: about whether he might be a bust, whether there might 552 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 2: be a two year learning curve. He is just automatic boom. 553 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 2: He's going to double coverage week one, and so that's 554 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 2: what's appealing to me on that front. By the way, why. 555 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 4: I'm curious, why would the Vikings trade Justin Jefferson their 556 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 4: quarterback desperate? 557 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,679 Speaker 3: So what would that in your mind? Would that be 558 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 3: an even swap? Cardinals move from four to eleven and 559 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 3: get Justin Jefferson and that's it, or. 560 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 2: You get eleven and twenty three loust Justin Jefferson. 561 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 4: Because as if I'm the Vikings, I'm trading, I'd rather 562 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 4: trade next year's first round pick of a player that 563 00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 4: you don't know if they're going to be any good, 564 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 4: then I'm trading the best in the game. 565 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 2: And that's great, MANI says, Okay, well, you hang on 566 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 2: line four because I've got Denver and I got Vegas, 567 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 2: and I have the Giants in lines one, two, and three. 568 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 4: Again. I And I was talking to somebody this morning 569 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 4: in the office about this, somebody on the sales side, 570 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 4: and they were talking about potential trades, and I'm like, 571 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 4: people need and I know we've talked about this a 572 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 4: million times. Nothing is going to happen until we get 573 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 4: to draft night. It makes no sense for the Cardinals, 574 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 4: and it makes no sense to whoever would trade into 575 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 4: number four, no sense at all, because the people that 576 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 4: want to trade up all those early picks are going 577 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 4: to be quarterbacks and it makes no sense to make 578 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 4: that trade if you don't know who's gonna be on 579 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 4: the board. It's malfeasance. I will argue to trade up 580 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 4: without knowing who's on the board. 581 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 2: But what what if? What if? All right, you like 582 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 2: to push back over here, so we're going to push 583 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 2: back the other way, Danny. What if Mania Austin Ford 584 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 2: gets his Trey Lance deal? What if he gets three 585 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 2: kind of three first round picks, because that Trey Lance 586 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 2: deal was executed a good month away out before the draft, 587 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 2: where the Niners moved up with Miami right and Mimi 588 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 2: pulled the trigger because we got three first round picks 589 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 2: before they get buyer's remorse. We'll take that, and they 590 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 2: traded out of that spot a month before they were 591 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 2: on the clock. 592 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 4: Well, again, I'm right now, I'm thinking, I'm not necessarily 593 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 4: saying Monty doesn't make the move, but like, why would 594 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 4: anybody trade two four a month out? In that particular case, 595 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 4: San Francisco knew And I don't know if they liked 596 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 4: Mac Jones and then went to Trey Lance late or 597 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 4: if they always liked Trey Lance. They pretty much always 598 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 4: knew one of those two guys were going to be there. 599 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 4: And I'm telling you right now, you don't know who's 600 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 4: going to be there at four because the top three 601 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:42,959 Speaker 4: teams all want quarterbacks. 602 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 2: Could I say, if you're Denver. 603 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 4: And say whatever you want if your podcast, if. 604 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 2: You're Denver and you're really thinking about starting this season 605 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 2: with Jared Stidham, you will not get a primetime game. 606 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 4: And I'm sure Sean Payton is sitting his office, going, man, 607 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 4: if we don't get a primetime it's. 608 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 2: Just my that's my way of saying that you're not 609 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 2: a factor this coming season. If you're starting the season 610 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 2: with Jared'stidham, how do you get that fan base reinvigorated, 611 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 2: reinvested in Denver? I mean, are you really coming out 612 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 2: of the gates with Jared Stidham. I guess what I'm 613 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 2: saying is Denver there's some serious urgency there to get 614 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 2: a quarterback. 615 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 4: What is Denver giving you? I don't think Denver should 616 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 4: give you a package that's worth what. 617 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 2: Do they have left? 618 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 4: You're right, they don't. 619 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 2: You're right, and they I think they're a non factor 620 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 2: and they probably won't part with Patrick Surtan, although that 621 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 2: would be my first ask, it would. 622 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 3: It'll be interesting too. Are we sure that Chargers are 623 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 3: staying at five? 624 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 2: Good point? They might be the one team more in 625 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 2: need of wide receiver one than the Arizona Cardinals. 626 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 3: I think, I think the Charge But if one of these, 627 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 3: one of these teams in the eleven to thirteen range 628 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 3: is trying to get ahead of New York at six, 629 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 3: I mean, I see. 630 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 4: I think the Chargers situation is going to be dependent 631 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 4: on the Cardinals. So if the Cardinals stick and pick 632 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 4: and take a non quarterback, then I think the Chargers 633 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 4: are absolutely open for business. 634 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 2: Here's the other thing that we tend to forget about 635 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh. He is run first, second, and third based 636 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 2: on his tenure with the forty nine Ers, and we 637 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 2: got a dose of it twice a year for how 638 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 2: many years when he was the head coach of the 639 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 2: forty nine ers. Here comes Frank Gore thirty times a 640 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 2: game between the tackles, and he's already building that team 641 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 2: with that in mind. So for all the smoke and mirrors, 642 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 2: the Chargers are going to go with a receiver at five? 643 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 2: What if they go Joe Walt? What if they go 644 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 2: all line? Because the same question I throw out there, 645 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 2: and it's a genuine question, I don't have the answer 646 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 2: when I say, how much does Money Osibor and Jonathan 647 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 2: Ganning even value the receiver position? Do they even attach 648 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 2: number four overall the receiver? I think the same could 649 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 2: be said for Jim Harbaugh. Everything coming out of the 650 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 2: Chargers camp, And by the way, they're already practicing because 651 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: it's a new head coach, they're doing the offseason, whatever 652 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 2: the terminology is. This time of year, there's a bunch 653 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 2: Chargers players in the media talking about how Harbaugh has 654 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 2: gone heavy handed with all the physicality that he's going 655 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 2: to institute with the Chargers. It's going to be a 656 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 2: completely different brand of ball with the LA Chargers, who, 657 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 2: by the way, are on the Cardinals schedule this year 658 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 2: coming to State Farm Stadium. So I guess I threw 659 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 2: out there that we think we know to your point 660 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 2: last year or last week about Will Levis right this 661 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 2: time a year ago, I was like, oh, will Levis 662 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 2: top five? Then he goes round two. Do we really 663 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 2: know what Jim Harbaugh is going to do? All we 664 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 2: know about Jim Harbor is based only can you name 665 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 2: who is number one and number two? Receivers were from 666 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 2: those forty nine er teams that went to the NFC 667 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 2: Championship Game three years in a row the Jim Harbaugh era. 668 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 2: Even remember who his receivers were? What years were forty 669 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 2: nine ers when Harball was head coach of the Niners. 670 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 2: Who were his top receivers? I can't even remember remember. 671 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 4: I don't know. I will say this, it was funny. 672 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 4: Somebody brought up the Draft party being announced, and the 673 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 4: idea that trading four wouldn't go over very well, let's 674 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 4: put it that way. And I'm thinking to myself, if 675 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 4: you end up with a trade where you get out 676 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 4: of four, but you get two first round picks this year, 677 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 4: plus the third one which you already have, the twenty seven, 678 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 4: and in a first round next year, I'm like, the 679 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 4: fans really going to be that upset about it. Three 680 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 4: first round picks. It's going to be really, really damn 681 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 4: busy around here on Friday. 682 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 2: But as well, look as someone who's hosted the draft 683 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 2: party for many years, and as Keyster's been blown in 684 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 2: the win last couple of years with trades, was there 685 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 2: some of that reaction when the Cardinals traded out at 686 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 2: number three last year? 687 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 4: Sure? 688 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 2: But then forty five minutes later, Oh wait a minute, 689 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 2: Cardinals are moving up to number six, and they got 690 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 2: the best tackle in the draft and the best tackle 691 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 2: to come out of Ohio State since Orlando Pace, the 692 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 2: first ballot Hall of Famer.

The 742 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:24,880 Speaker 4: whole final. 743 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,320 Speaker 2: Four week really interesting, Okay, just in general. 744 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 4: Okay, so I don't know nearly when wasn't the Women's Final. 745 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 3: I was exciting to watch.

Yes, yeah, that's that 748 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 2: sound six ish mm hmm. So, by the way, the 749 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:46,919 Speaker 2: Yukon students who last year took down a light pole 750 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 2: and used it as a battering ram to bash through 751 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 2: the student union after winning this year in Connecticut in 752 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 2: Connecticut and the Yukon yeah they this year. I guess they 753 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 2: took down street signs, so like you know, stop signs, 754 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 2: other street signs and use that as a as a 755 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 2: battering ram around towns. So yeah, so okay, times, you know, 756 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 2: I'd like to be a parent. You get a call 757 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 2: from your kid and you just got expelled. There were 758 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 2: a half dozen students I saw who were expelled last year, 759 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 2: three of whom were about a month out from graduation. 760 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,840 Speaker 2: That'll hurt, that'll leave Mark. There's there's no doubt about that, Darren. 761 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 2: You know, if it's not the mock drafts. You know 762 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 2: what gets my I hear these days is when you 763 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:25,399 Speaker 2: see these stories. Here's one nine teams that most need 764 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 2: to ace their picks is NFL dot Com. 765 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 4: All the other. 766 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 2: Teams don't have doesn't really. 767 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 3: Matter, you know the Chiefs. 768 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 2: So here it is. Here's their power poll up. Teams 769 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 2: most in need to nail their picks in this draft. 770 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 2: Number one Denver, number two Chicago because they pick one 771 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 2: to nine. Three Minnesota they have eleven and twenty three, 772 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 2: four Washington, five, Arizona, and then you go six, seven, eight, nine, 773 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 2: New England, Buffalo, the Giants, the Chargers, So. 774 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 4: Really most of the teams at the beginning of the 775 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 4: draft because are the worst teams. 776 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 2: So with the exception in Denver, which goes from picking 777 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 2: twelve to number one in their power pole, is most 778 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 2: needing to ace their picks A because they don't have 779 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:15,320 Speaker 2: many left. Yeah, after trading Way and the Russell Wilson fiasco. 780 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 2: And number two they don't have a quarterback, so they 781 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:19,760 Speaker 2: need to figure that out as well. 782 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 4: I'm just to touch on that real briefly. I a 783 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 4: believe you believe in what you're saying when you say 784 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:30,800 Speaker 4: Denver desperately needs a quarterback. 785 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 2: I also. 786 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 4: Believe, in my heart of hearts that if there is 787 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 4: a coach who is gonna say, f U I can 788 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 4: win with Jared Stidham, it could be. 789 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 2: It could be. Yeah, you're you're right. I mean, there's 790 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:49,879 Speaker 2: no doubt about that one. Look, here's the other thing 791 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 2: about when you look at this draft. I mean, for example, 792 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,800 Speaker 2: I think Seattle's a sleeper for a quarterback, But is 793 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 2: Michael Pennock's going to make it all the way to sixteen? 794 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 2: Good bone nicks end up? If you work in a 795 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,479 Speaker 2: year ahead, what is John Schneider doing at quarterback behind 796 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 2: Geno Smith long term? And don't give me Sam Howell 797 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 2: in Seattle right now? So I think there is a 798 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,319 Speaker 2: lot still to be determined on that one. 799 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 4: But if you're Seattle, are you, I don't know? I mean, 800 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 4: I guess if you believe in them, you believe in them. 801 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 4: I mean, we're right now we're talking about what you're 802 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 4: just talking about. You're talking about not only six quarterbacks 803 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 4: going in the first round, which is a lot. But 804 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 4: you're talking about if he's there at you're talking about 805 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,359 Speaker 4: six quarterbacks potentially going in the top fifteen. I don't 806 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 4: think that's going to happen. I think we talk about 807 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 4: that every year, how it's going to happen, and then 808 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 4: it doesn't happen. 809 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 2: Okay, By the way, I did look up. We had 810 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 2: the discussion last week about free agent cornerbacks that could 811 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 2: be available. Let's say the Cardinals take Marvin Harrison Junior 812 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 2: at number four. Okay, I pause as the Red Sea celebrates, 813 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 2: and then they end up going, you know, with another 814 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 2: position at twenty seven, no trades, and with their two picks. Okay, 815 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 2: guess what they're without cornerback one when this draft ends. 816 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 4: Guess what. 817 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 2: Stefan Gilmour is still out there. Yes, he's aged thirty three, 818 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:14,360 Speaker 2: but he started seventeen to seventeen games last year for Dallas. 819 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 2: Stephen Nelson is out there. Starter for Houston a year ago, 820 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 2: started sixteen to seventeen games, had four picks, twelve passes defense. 821 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 2: He's aged thirty one. He'll get a one year deal. 822 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 2: Dorri Jackson, twenty eight year old. Last year with the 823 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 2: Giants was their number one corner. 824 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 4: Was he not in Tennessee with Monty at one point. 825 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 2: I think you could be right on that, So keep 826 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 2: him on the radar. And then the Rams' best corner 827 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 2: last year is now is still a free agent, Akello Witherspoon. 828 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 2: He was pretty decent last year and those two games 829 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 2: Cardinals played against Witherspoon, he's hard to miss. He's six 830 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 2: to two. You stand on the fielder're like, that's a 831 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 2: big dude playing corner. Six two one ninety five started 832 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 2: all seventeen games. So every one of these free agents 833 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 2: as a track record of durability reliability, which has been 834 00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 2: a staple. And MANI free agents sign. Those guys are 835 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 2: out there and I'm guessing they will be out there 836 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 2: until after the draft, and then somebody might pounce. So 837 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:08,919 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be shocked if that's on his radar. 838 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 4: There will be like a second round of free agency, 839 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 4: and for some of those veterans it might take a 840 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 4: lot longer. I was reading a great story about Jadavian 841 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 4: Clowney and I forgot that he had basically blown up 842 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 4: his knee his first game in the NFL, and so 843 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 4: it has always been kind of recovering and We always 844 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 4: kind of joke about Jadavian Clowney because it seems like 845 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 4: he's a free agent every offseason. But he's done a 846 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 4: nice job of maximizing his money. And what I didn't 847 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 4: even realize is I think he's only been to like 848 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 4: two or three training camps his whole career because he 849 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:42,600 Speaker 4: usually doesn't sign until he gets to skip training camp. 850 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 4: I'm like, that's just smart living. 851 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good, that's good. Well, you know what, he 852 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 2: looked good in the playoffs too, Jadevian Clowney. I thought 853 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 2: he played some pretty good ball in the postseason. By 854 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 2: the way, here was the stinking quota I was looking 855 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 2: for from Jim Harbaugh and that physical team thing, which 856 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 2: reminded me of Jonathan Ganning what he's instituting right the 857 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 2: tight end. Hayden Hurst, who played for John Harbaugh, was 858 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 2: talking about how Jim Harbaugh got up and told everyone, 859 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 2: we want to out physical teams. We want teams to 860 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 2: fear us, we want teams to end up giving in 861 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter. Harbaugh's answer to the media when 862 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 2: asked about that is, my first goal is to make 863 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 2: you as a player harder to break. So he's been 864 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 2: instituting certain things as head coach. I'm like that sounds 865 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 2: a lot like the style of ball Jonathan Gannon. 866 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 4: Has there ever been a coach that has come in 867 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,760 Speaker 4: and said, you know what, if you want to be physical, 868 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 4: that's cool. 869 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:38,720 Speaker 3: But if not, no worries. 870 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 4: If we're not that physical, it's not that big of answer. 871 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 2: Okay, let's keep it real. Wasn't Cliff Kingsbury accused of 872 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 2: being that guy? Wasn't all that concern with physicality? 873 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's good rebuttal, I'm just throwing. 874 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:55,359 Speaker 2: That out there. So look, I just think that's all 875 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,839 Speaker 2: part of the equation. We had Derek LeBlanc sitting right there, 876 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 2: Cardinals d line coach. He's pointing at me for the 877 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,120 Speaker 2: Big Red Rage. And you might have seen some of 878 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 2: the video clips are out there. He's sitting right there 879 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 2: and just talking about you know what, Sure, these defensive 880 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 2: linemen need to have the measurables. So but first and foremost, 881 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 2: in my opinion, they need to be willing to stick 882 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,240 Speaker 2: their face mask in there. They need that element of toughness. 883 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,240 Speaker 2: And I asked Kyle Vannaboscher on the Red Sea Report, 884 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 2: if I give you film of college players of free 885 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 2: agent NFL defensivelignment. Could you tell could you ascertain whether 886 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 2: they were quote a tough guy or tough enough to 887 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 2: be part? Said absolutely. Just watch their effort level when 888 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,320 Speaker 2: the game's already decided. Watch their effort level when the 889 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,759 Speaker 2: ball's not going to their side of the field. See 890 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 2: watch the tenacity with which they go after offensive linemen. 891 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 2: So interesting, you know, the value system perhaps that they're 892 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,280 Speaker 2: gonna put in place like a ball Nichols and Justin Jones. 893 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 2: I never would have forecasted they signed with the Cardinals, 894 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,800 Speaker 2: but I'm guessing those two guys check those two boxes. 895 00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 4: What always troubles me with this subject is I would 896 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 4: agree with you if you if you're an expert in 897 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,279 Speaker 4: the game, like KVB was saying, like you should be 898 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 4: able to see that, right, So why would you ever 899 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:15,880 Speaker 4: sign somebody who's not that I don't And I've covered 900 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 4: this team for what twenty five years whatever stupid amount 901 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,319 Speaker 4: it's been like, there have been plenty of players where 902 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,879 Speaker 4: like they've walked in. I'm like, yeah, I can kind 903 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 4: of like and just see from your personality you're not 904 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:29,279 Speaker 4: you're not going to stick your face in the fan 905 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 4: like I don't I don't understand why teams would do 906 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 4: that or draft them. 907 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 3: Well, but players like that end up on teams. You're right, 908 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 3: So the players good enough to help you in games 909 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 3: are good enough when you're in close games. You just 910 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,840 Speaker 3: know that. Yeah, maybe when the game is lost, I 911 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 3: mean Cardinals, Yeah, I don't want to get in trouble. 912 00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,320 Speaker 4: Don't get in trouble. We don't. We don't want to 913 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:54,319 Speaker 4: get you in troubles. 914 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, look at a Chase Young, right, I 915 00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:58,960 Speaker 3: knew that was coming out of your mouth. 916 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 2: Pall, Okay, do he use a former number two pick overall? 917 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 3: Yep, you're talking about you're talking about the Super Bowl game. 918 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:04,799 Speaker 3: Is that clip of him? 919 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,640 Speaker 2: Yes? So, I mean he got finish. I mean he 920 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 2: checked every other box. He was the number two pick overall. 921 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 4: But now, I do think part of it has to 922 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 4: do with the fact that, just like anything else, coaches 923 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,400 Speaker 4: think if I get. 924 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 3: Him, if you're good enough, when you're good with. 925 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 2: Sure, Well, the other point I should be fair at 926 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 2: KVB said, you know, I'm not necessarily looking at the 927 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,759 Speaker 2: ceiling as much as I'm looking at the floor in 928 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 2: their career. So I'll throw out we're in the trust Tree. 929 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:35,800 Speaker 2: Here we go. Jordan Phillips. 930 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:38,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's obviously one we think about. 931 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 2: Free agent year with Buffalo. Had a great free agent year. 932 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,360 Speaker 2: But if you look at the first three years, nearly 933 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:46,400 Speaker 2: match the production he had in his free agent year, 934 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 2: and then he cashed that in two year, big money 935 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,120 Speaker 2: deal with the Cardinals and he reverted right back. It 936 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:54,400 Speaker 2: was first couple of years in the league. So there's 937 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 2: that aspect of it. So I just you know, once again, 938 00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 2: I just thrown that out there for consideration as you 939 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 2: try and forecast what exactly is going to happen now 940 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 2: speaking to some of these free agents and so forth. Darren, 941 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,920 Speaker 2: what's happening on Monday with certain the veterans. 942 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 4: Well, it's anybody on Monday. So we record this, we 943 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 4: record this on Tuesday, so before we record again on 944 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 4: the fifteenth, the Cardinals are going to start start their 945 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:25,360 Speaker 4: off season program, which starts with the Phase one Strength 946 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 4: and Conditioning, which basically just means they can come in 947 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 4: and work with the strength and conditioning coaches, only not 948 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 4: allowed to do stuff with the other coaches yet, can't 949 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:37,360 Speaker 4: get a playbook, can't do any of that stuff. And 950 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 4: then they're weightlifting and they're conditioning out on the field 951 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 4: and getting started, and there's a couple weeks of that, 952 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 4: and then there'll be a couple of weeks of the 953 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 4: Phase two stuff, and then we get to OTA's and 954 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,719 Speaker 4: we're going to be well into the off season work. 955 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:53,439 Speaker 4: But players are back in the building again. Voluntary, yeah, 956 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:58,440 Speaker 4: and so you don't have to be here nothing for veterans. 957 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,800 Speaker 4: There's nothing mandatory except for the mini camp at the 958 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 4: very end of OTAs, which is in mid June. Everything 959 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 4: else is voluntary now. A number of these players and 960 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 4: a lot of teams do this is now. And for instance, 961 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 4: Buddha Baker, when Budda Baker didn't show up for voluntary 962 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 4: stuff last year, obviously was looking to fix his contract. 963 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 4: They changed up his contract a little bit, and I 964 00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:24,759 Speaker 4: noticed there's quite a large amount of money tied to 965 00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 4: showing up to the offseason work. Now now he doesn't 966 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 4: have to collect that if he doesn't want it, but 967 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 4: it's easy money if he does. And that's what a 968 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 4: lot of teams are dealing with players, especially the high 969 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 4: end players, as they're putting in their contracts workout bonuses. 970 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 4: Now I've read a story and I didn't get it. 971 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 4: It wasn't a name. Ross Tucker, the former offensive lineman 972 00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:49,479 Speaker 4: who now does stuff out there. He wrote this really 973 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,360 Speaker 4: interesting story that I thought, and I've always agreed with it, 974 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 4: but that's this is the kind of person I would 975 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 4: And he was like, I never understood any players that 976 00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 4: didn't come to the voluntary stuff. It's easy money, I know. 977 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:02,799 Speaker 4: He's like, not even talking about the workopp on its 978 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 4: is you get paid whatever it is, five hundred bucks 979 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 4: a week, free meals, and you're gonna be doing stuff 980 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,799 Speaker 4: you were gonna be doing anyways, and oftentimes you were 981 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 4: gonna be paying people to do it with and instead 982 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:17,840 Speaker 4: they're gonna pay you as little as it might be. 983 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:20,800 Speaker 4: So he was always like, I don't understand why you 984 00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:24,560 Speaker 4: wouldn't just go. Obviously coaches want to see it, but 985 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:26,800 Speaker 4: it's a big deal for the Players Association to have 986 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 4: everybody understand it is voluntary and if they don't come, 987 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 4: they don't come. 988 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,439 Speaker 2: I think you'd be wearing t shirts with their number 989 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:34,760 Speaker 2: and if we're looking for number four and Greg Dortch, 990 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 2: if he's there, that's my segue to Greg Dortch. 991 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:38,919 Speaker 4: Oh, that was really tough. 992 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:44,320 Speaker 2: You know they wearing you know, we'll see from all indications, right, Danny, 993 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,839 Speaker 2: he's changed his number to number four. 994 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:50,320 Speaker 3: I saw a pretty cruel comment when he posted that 995 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 3: on his Instagram of took the job and then took 996 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:54,000 Speaker 3: the number. 997 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 2: I thought that was not from doors but from a 998 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:02,879 Speaker 2: on the message underneath. Yeah, all right, Well, I mean, 999 00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:06,440 Speaker 2: what do you think his role is going to be 1000 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 2: and will anyone's role be as impacted by the results 1001 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 2: in the draft as Greg dorts Well, that's the thing. 1002 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 3: I think it's pretty fair to say that we are 1003 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:21,359 Speaker 3: expecting the Cardinals to draft a wide receiver with one 1004 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 3: of their top picks. Maybe not four again, maybe not 1005 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 3: even until thirty five in round two. 1006 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 4: Oh my god, all the fans just got yeah, I got. 1007 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 2: What bunched up? 1008 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 3: Okay, so the Cardinals are going to need a true 1009 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:41,719 Speaker 3: number one receiver, which is what the intention was when 1010 00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 3: you had with Hollywood Brown. So to me, Greg Dortch's 1011 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,800 Speaker 3: role is not going to be drastically different, maybe in 1012 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 3: the sense of having more of what Rondel Moore was 1013 00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 3: doing here, a little more active in the offensive playbook 1014 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:59,399 Speaker 3: instead of just sporadically, or more on special teams. I'm 1015 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 3: not expecting team to see a huge jump in the 1016 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,359 Speaker 3: way that we see Michael Wilson of we'll see Greg 1017 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,399 Speaker 3: Dortch by any means, I think it'll just be more 1018 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 3: of a step up into what rondel Moore was doing 1019 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 3: or what they were wanting out of him and getting 1020 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:13,880 Speaker 3: that from Greg Dortch. 1021 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,520 Speaker 2: And I am a believer that the whole DJ Dallas 1022 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 2: means that Greg Dortch is a full time receiver and 1023 00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 2: DJ Dallas will be the return man. And you know 1024 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:27,479 Speaker 2: it's gonna benefit Greg Dortsch, whether he wants to admit 1025 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,320 Speaker 2: it or not. I mean, he took a beating on 1026 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:32,160 Speaker 2: a lot of those return teams. He's all of a 1027 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 2: buck seventy five and there were times where when he 1028 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 2: got hit, he got launched into the air and he'd 1029 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,520 Speaker 2: come to the sideline and you know, I mean he'd 1030 00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:40,239 Speaker 2: have to shake it off. 1031 00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,800 Speaker 4: So see that's one of the reasons I you know, 1032 00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 4: for whatever Ronde was doing, I don't see Dorch doing 1033 00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:47,960 Speaker 4: a lot of Like he won't do the running back 1034 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,320 Speaker 4: stuff big enough, not out of the backfield. 1035 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 2: No, that'll be handled handled by Xavier Worthy. After he's 1036 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 2: drafted number thirty five overall and he brings the four too. 1037 00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 4: One Xavier Worthy will be picked before thirty five. 1038 00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 3: And somehow are you already ready to name him as 1039 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:02,879 Speaker 3: your pet cat for training camp? 1040 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 2: No, somehow I get my redemption for I Andy for 1041 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:10,280 Speaker 2: I said, yeah, I get redemption for that. It's Savior 1042 00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 2: Worthy's running the Jets sweep and everyone's screaming. 1043 00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:13,399 Speaker 1: Four to one. 1044 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 2: Here it comes. And then the whole defense gets you know, distracted, 1045 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 2: gets apoplectic, the whole defense when you know Savior Worthy is. 1046 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 1: And that's every week. 1047 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 4: Every week Danny learns a little something. 1048 00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:26,600 Speaker 3: See, I don't need one of those calendars that has 1049 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 3: the you know, the dictionary, the word of the day, 1050 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:30,120 Speaker 3: word of the week. I've got you, Darren. 1051 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:32,319 Speaker 4: I'm a wordsmith, Danny. 1052 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 2: By the way, let's say, let's just say the Cardinals 1053 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:39,600 Speaker 2: don't go receiver with their initial first round pick, but 1054 00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 2: they still have number twenty seven overall and they still 1055 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:47,759 Speaker 2: need receiver. Do they trade up from twenty seven to 1056 00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:51,279 Speaker 2: go after someone earlier in the first round, whether it's 1057 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,520 Speaker 2: a Brian Thomas junior or someone of that ilk. 1058 00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 3: I think that is plausible regardless of position. I think 1059 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 3: if you feel that strongly about a wide receiver, yes, 1060 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:04,440 Speaker 3: I'm in favor of it. If we're talking another position, 1061 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:07,399 Speaker 3: a tackle, or you're looking on defense, where again these 1062 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,920 Speaker 3: positions are not super deep, A cornerback, a defensive lineman. 1063 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,240 Speaker 3: I do think that it would make sense to trade 1064 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:15,880 Speaker 3: up from twenty seven. 1065 00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:19,520 Speaker 2: Get the player that you want if Jared Burst is 1066 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,000 Speaker 2: there and you want that edge if you have a 1067 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 2: high opinion of Chop Robinson reportedly too, how the draft 1068 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 2: count took a thirty visit right, so boom all the day? 1069 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,640 Speaker 2: Why wait, why take the chance someone jumps in front 1070 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 2: of us. Agreed, We're gonna go get that edge guy, 1071 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 2: because where else are you getting the edge player these days? 1072 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,279 Speaker 4: I think that's fair. I'll be curious to know the 1073 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 4: edge class in particular is very odd this year. And 1074 00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 4: you kind of touched on it earlier in terms of 1075 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 4: there's not Will Anderson. Now we've talked about that before. 1076 00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 2: Again, if there was someone worthy off, the Cardinals would 1077 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:52,280 Speaker 2: go that direction. 1078 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 4: I mean, I saw somebody, I think it was the 1079 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 4: thirty thirteen put out like a list of like seven 1080 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 4: boom or bust first round picks and there were two 1081 00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:06,239 Speaker 4: edge guys on it. Dallas Turner and Chop Robinson were 1082 00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:09,239 Speaker 4: on there as like guys that could be really good 1083 00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 4: or they could be not good at all. 1084 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 2: Well, they had to lots was visiting a lot week. 1085 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:15,520 Speaker 4: He was on there too, so like, there was only 1086 00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 4: like eight guys and three of them are edge rushers. 1087 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:19,880 Speaker 2: I mean, Dave Pash is telling me Lotso is a dude. 1088 00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 2: And I'm watching some of the last couple of UCLA games. 1089 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 2: I don't know why I can't stand UCLA and he 1090 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,600 Speaker 2: was a non factor to me, but there are other 1091 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:31,279 Speaker 2: games where he blowed up everything. So yeah, I could 1092 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:34,080 Speaker 2: see the boomer bus label being put on a few 1093 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 2: of these guys. 1094 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:35,400 Speaker 4: Now. 1095 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:37,960 Speaker 2: Dallas Turner's interesting as well because he played with Will 1096 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 2: Anderson the year before, but most don't consider him in 1097 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 2: the same class as will Anderson. 1098 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:46,840 Speaker 4: Do you, guys, if they stay at four, regardless of 1099 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 4: who they pick, do you think there's a chance they 1100 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:50,479 Speaker 4: trade up from twenty seven? Still? 1101 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 2: Yes, you have eleven picks. You have eleven picks in 1102 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 2: this draft, more than any other team. 1103 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 4: Yes. 1104 00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 3: Again, even if you stay at four and you pick 1105 00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:00,440 Speaker 3: a wide receiver, if you feel very strongly and Verry 1106 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:05,440 Speaker 3: set on one of the few projected first round edge 1107 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:07,799 Speaker 3: rushers and you want to get the player you want, 1108 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 3: even if there's a chance, you know that you could 1109 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 3: get one of three. But if you're set on one 1110 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:13,959 Speaker 3: of them, absolutely, I think even if you take wide 1111 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,640 Speaker 3: receiver at four, the Cardinals could still trade up from 1112 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 3: twenty seven. 1113 00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,600 Speaker 2: And look, there are other teams you know that sit 1114 00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:24,200 Speaker 2: in the the end of the top ten, in the 1115 00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:26,200 Speaker 2: middle that you could trade up with. Let's say the 1116 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 2: Cardinals take Marvin Eerrison Junior. Once again, pause for reaction 1117 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,239 Speaker 2: at number four, and then all of a sudden, you 1118 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:37,480 Speaker 2: want to come up and trade with Minnesota or Denver 1119 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:39,920 Speaker 2: or Vegas or one of those teams in the middle 1120 00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:42,799 Speaker 2: of the first round. You've had so many conversations if 1121 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:46,759 Speaker 2: your Manias's board, I presume with those teams already, and 1122 00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:50,239 Speaker 2: if for some reason all those quarterbacks are gone and 1123 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:52,800 Speaker 2: they have to face reality, then maybe they want to 1124 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:53,920 Speaker 2: just vacate that spot. 1125 00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:56,760 Speaker 4: It was funny. Bill Barnwell did a story on ESPN 1126 00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:59,800 Speaker 4: talking about what teams should do in terms of not 1127 00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:03,959 Speaker 4: who they should pick necessarily, but whether they should stick 1128 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 4: and pick or trade. And it is remarkable how many 1129 00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:10,919 Speaker 4: teams he had saying, yeah, to trade down, they should 1130 00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 4: trade down, They should trade down because I mean, I 1131 00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:16,880 Speaker 4: do think there's a and this happens every year. I 1132 00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:21,080 Speaker 4: do think there's a certain cliff that you hit around 1133 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:24,399 Speaker 4: ten or somewhere in that area where there's a drop 1134 00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:27,359 Speaker 4: off in talent and who you're picking at eleven isn't 1135 00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:29,399 Speaker 4: that much different than who you'd pick at twenty two, 1136 00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:32,239 Speaker 4: and so you know, can you trade down and get 1137 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:35,160 Speaker 4: more stuff? I mean, it's a fascinating thing. And I 1138 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:39,200 Speaker 4: do think the Cardinals will have opportunity to trade up 1139 00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 4: from twenty seven if that would be something that they 1140 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 4: wanted to do. 1141 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 2: So what was this thing with John Rahm forks up 1142 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 2: and the whole Master's. 1143 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,439 Speaker 3: Dinner Master's Week He gets to choose the menu? 1144 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, and it's a big. 1145 00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 4: Golf guy, Paul, I saw you hosting the recap of 1146 00:55:58,600 --> 00:55:59,920 Speaker 4: the Charities of Golf tournament. 1147 00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:04,839 Speaker 2: Uh yes, yes, and Zamon Collins was doing his best 1148 00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,600 Speaker 2: John rom over there. I mean it was pretty impressive 1149 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:08,359 Speaker 2: for Zam Collins. 1150 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,799 Speaker 4: Think about it. David Collins looks a little bit like a. 1151 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,319 Speaker 2: Little bit the beard and Ron's a big dude, by 1152 00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:13,720 Speaker 2: the way. 1153 00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:15,480 Speaker 4: He is, Okay, he's not as big I was. I 1154 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:17,640 Speaker 4: went to talk to Zavan the other day and I'm like, 1155 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:21,400 Speaker 4: did you get bigger? And he goes Grospert He's like, 1156 00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:24,959 Speaker 4: and it was more thick, and he's like, well, he goes, 1157 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,640 Speaker 4: I lost a little bit of weight, and so I'm 1158 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 4: probably a little bit more, have a little bit more 1159 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 4: muscle bomb like he looks like a monster. 1160 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 2: Oh well, wait a minute. Did't John Rom play with 1161 00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:37,880 Speaker 2: JJ Watt and Xavian Collins? Wasn't that a thing a 1162 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 2: couple of years ago? 1163 00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:40,479 Speaker 4: He might have. He definitely played with J. J Watt. 1164 00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 4: I'm I'm assuming Xavion was there since Zavian did everything 1165 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:44,080 Speaker 4: with JJ at the time. 1166 00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:47,480 Speaker 2: So anyway, I can't get this open up.

I know that's not 1213 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:15,440 Speaker 4: a side, but we can make it a side. I'm 1214 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:19,760 Speaker 4: ordering whatever I want that that sounds really good to me, 1215 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 4: and then probably some vegetable asparaga sounds good. 1216 00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:22,920 Speaker 3: What's your dessert? 1217 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 4: I would probably go with like a either a cheesecake 1218 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:30,240 Speaker 4: or like a I'm gonna cheese out and do like 1219 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:32,080 Speaker 4: a peanut butter pie.

If I wondered about 1226 00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 2: the green bean cast role wasn't failures. 1227 00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 3: That would be cruel to put it on my menu 1228 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 3: and make everyone else. 1229 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,240 Speaker 2: I have to say it. I hate to be morose here, 1230 00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 2: but like when I see this master's dinner, I think 1231 00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 2: of like a last meal, like someone facing the chair, 1232 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:01,600 Speaker 2: know it. It kind of reminds me that a little. 1233 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:03,640 Speaker 4: So if you were about to be killed, what would 1234 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,800 Speaker 4: be your last meal? Paul? 1235 01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:09,640 Speaker 2: The main component would be egg plant parmesan. That would 1236 01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:12,400 Speaker 2: be the main component. I would go with that. Maybe 1237 01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:14,480 Speaker 2: even from little Italy and New York, which was the 1238 01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:18,520 Speaker 2: best I've ever had, or North Beach in San Francisco. 1239 01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 2: Those would be the two atop the power pole that 1240 01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:23,600 Speaker 2: I've ever had. Never been to Italy. I know it's criminal, 1241 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:26,400 Speaker 2: but yeah, I would go with eggplant parm and you 1242 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:27,680 Speaker 2: can fill in the rest. That's fine. 1243 01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:29,720 Speaker 4: Have you been to Have you been to Europe at all? No, 1244 01:00:30,360 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 4: well other than the Cardinals, was going to say you 1245 01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:32,800 Speaker 4: went to London. 1246 01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:35,400 Speaker 2: A mistake. I may keep working right out of college 1247 01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:38,000 Speaker 2: and never stop. Big mistake should have taken. 1248 01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:39,880 Speaker 3: Time before we end. I owe you an apology. 1249 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:42,800 Speaker 2: Pol oh boy, here we go. Are we recording like 1250 01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:45,040 Speaker 2: i'd like? I'd like several audio. 1251 01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 3: Cops staring down myself. 1252 01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:46,640 Speaker 4: Here we go. 1253 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:50,200 Speaker 3: So last week you were talking about the solar eclipse 1254 01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 3: any path of totality, and I hadn't really been paying attention, and. 1255 01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:57,400 Speaker 4: Lollie was talking. You just ignored them. Yeah, that too, okay, 1256 01:00:57,600 --> 01:00:58,440 Speaker 4: but you know. 1257 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:00,600 Speaker 2: You know what's really remiss about that? As I jump in, 1258 01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:03,520 Speaker 2: I really shouldn't interrupt your apology towards me, but I will. 1259 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:07,320 Speaker 2: Because the last time the city of Dallas, your hometown, 1260 01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:11,480 Speaker 2: actually saw a total solar eclipse, was like eighteen seventy eight, 1261 01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:13,760 Speaker 2: and the next time they'll see it as twenty three 1262 01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:16,959 Speaker 2: forty five. So just the magnitude of the moment, Danny, 1263 01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:18,560 Speaker 2: just for the Dallas metroid. 1264 01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:20,520 Speaker 3: And I did not fully understand that. I ended up 1265 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:24,720 Speaker 3: going home to Dallas this past weekend and it was everywhere, 1266 01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:29,840 Speaker 3: the electric billboards, the signs, and the grocery stores. I 1267 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 3: went to a bakery and they had pastries that had 1268 01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 3: the sun on them with sunglasses. It was everywhere, and 1269 01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:38,160 Speaker 3: we had a little bit of it here in Arizona. 1270 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:40,000 Speaker 3: It was really cool to see, but. 1271 01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 4: See it wasn't a meeting. 1272 01:01:42,040 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 3: That's a shame for you. Seeing what like photos and 1273 01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:47,840 Speaker 3: videos for my family, my friends, and then everything online 1274 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:52,280 Speaker 3: was so cool and I don't think I really understood 1275 01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:55,680 Speaker 3: in so I think I kind of plushed it to 1276 01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:57,560 Speaker 3: the side when you talked about it. And honestly, like 1277 01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:00,880 Speaker 3: in hindsight, I should have just ended my trip home 1278 01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:02,760 Speaker 3: because I came back on Sunday. Should have just stayed 1279 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 3: through Monday. 1280 01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:05,160 Speaker 4: That's a long way to say, I'm sorry, Paul. 1281 01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:08,120 Speaker 2: I didn't actually hear those words exactly. 1282 01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:09,800 Speaker 3: You just heard them from Darren. That's close. 1283 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:11,880 Speaker 2: I heard a personal postcard. I know that. 1284 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,560 Speaker 3: If I know that, I know that if I if 1285 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:17,880 Speaker 3: I say those words consecutively without you guys talking to 1286 01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:20,680 Speaker 3: the background, it's going to be clipped for future you. 1287 01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:23,360 Speaker 3: So I'm not going to do that to myself. I'll 1288 01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 3: tell you off air. 1289 01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,440 Speaker 2: I'm going to live vicariously through your family. Did they 1290 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:29,400 Speaker 2: walk out and actually experience total darkness. 1291 01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 3: In the middle of the day they did, Yes, with 1292 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:32,040 Speaker 3: the glasses and so. 1293 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:34,919 Speaker 2: Jealous, So I should I should have just called in sick, 1294 01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:38,960 Speaker 2: and you know, called your to Dallas.
