1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, he's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt 2 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: Williamson on your home of the Black and Gold Steelers 3 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: Nation Radio. Welcome back. I'm Dale Lolly here with Matt 4 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: Williamson for hour or two of the special edition of 5 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: the Drive. It's so special, we're gonna do a double head. 6 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: That's right, We're coming. I'll be here until eleven thirty 7 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: bringing you all the news, updates, stealers information, all kinds 8 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: of good stuff. We've been talking about some news from 9 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: around the league here to finish off the last hour, 10 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: and it just reminded me of the whole Michael Thomas 11 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,199 Speaker 1: injury as well. Where are the we're talking about Carson 12 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: Wentz And it's like, you know, these are the kind 13 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: of speed bumps, and that Michael Thomas injury is more 14 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 1: than a speed bump. I mean, they don't have anything else. 15 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 1: You know that he's gonna be out probably half the season, 16 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: and they don't have anything else. And I can't imagine 17 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 1: he comes back in football shape either, like if he's 18 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: due back weeks see other part of having a foot injury. Absolutely, 19 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: you know you're not able to do a whole lot, 20 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: will do a whole lot. You know, do you trust it? 21 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: You cut off it. So let's say Thomas comes back 22 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: week five or six, probably not himself to week eight, 23 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: best case scenario. Even so, and again, so now the 24 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: Saints are they're They're done. So it's funny you brought 25 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: the Saints up because I was thinking about driving here today. 26 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: I am not a Taysom Hill fan. I might start 27 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: Tasom Hill. I was thinking the same thing because yeah, 28 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: exact totally play Ravens football with Kamara and Hill carrying 29 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: the ball and touching the ball all the time, and 30 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: you know your your other receivers find Troutman's your Mark Andrews. 31 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: I think that gives them best chase, a chance to win. 32 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: I said, they have a pretty good defense. I think 33 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: what I'd watch other Winston than Hill in a vacuum, 34 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: or for the Steelers or for whoever, but to get by, 35 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 1: I think you gotta play Taysom Hill. Now that's how 36 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: one injury changes everything the whole off season, everything all right, 37 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: right right now, all of a sudden, if you know, 38 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston's through no fault of his own, suddenly becomes 39 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: the second best option to start for that team, even 40 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 1: though he's he should be the first. If they have 41 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: they have Michael Thomas, he's the starter. I assumed that 42 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: since they one, but now I would go back on 43 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: that just because of one injury. So now, Michael, if 44 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: I'm if I'm Jamis Innston, I drive over to Michael 45 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: Thomas's house and like smack him in the head with 46 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: a baseball bat, Like you just cost me millions of dollars. 47 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: He's ready to become a free agent again, or if 48 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: he has a full season starting this year because cash yeah, 49 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 1: potentially cash in, or maybe some team like the Steelers 50 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: buy him low, you know, and still love him or whatever, 51 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: or maybe he's a cult next week. Everything's on the 52 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: table now because because Michael Thomas decided he wasn't gonna 53 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: have his surgery until they should showed up Jameis Winston 54 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: for t Y Hilton or something. But then then you 55 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: don't have the Then you don't want Nick Eason. Yeah, 56 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: then you don't want Hill as your starter though receivers. Yeah, 57 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: it's it's it's the conundrum that you have. We're gonna 58 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: find out a lot about Sean Payton this year. Yeah, 59 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: it's the same thing that people always talked about. Well, 60 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: We'll find out what kind of coach Mike Tomlin is 61 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: when he doesn't have Ben Roethlisberger anymore. And it twenty 62 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: nine team we did did And I firmly do believe this, 63 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: And I say it over and over, six or seven 64 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: guys in the league that just know how to win that, 65 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: I really think Hall of Fame resumes. I can't stress enough. 66 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: You know, Tom Brady's on the screen right now. Boy, 67 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady was got the better of Belichick last year. 68 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: I don't know what's more impressive, Belichick winning seven games 69 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: with that dog crap roster or Brady going to Tampa 70 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: to an established team and witnesses we talked about that. 71 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: You know, all Tampa needed was a competent quarterback. If 72 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 1: they had if Tampa had signed Andy Dalton, maybe we 73 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: were wrong about that one. Cousins. Yeah, if they had 74 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: an league average quarterback, they might have gone to the 75 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: super Bowl. Anyway they might have. They would have been 76 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: a playoff team, they would have been much improved. You know, 77 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: Winson through thirty picks. I mean if he be thirty 78 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: picks and he turned it overt he lost ten fumbles 79 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: to forty turnovers. Out of your quarterback position. And I 80 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: understand Brady brings immense presence and leadership and changes what 81 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: that building has been about forever. But he didn't draft 82 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: Tristan Worth, Saint Antoine Winfield, or build that roster. It 83 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: was a great scenario to go in and because he 84 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: saw Brady, he could pick and choose where he went to. 85 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: He's no dummy, He's not going to Jacksonville. You know 86 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: he's going to take a good spot. But to your point, 87 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 1: Tomlin went in eight without Ben Belichick went in seven 88 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: with a million optouts and no Brady and no wide receivers. 89 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: If Peyton gets to seven and ten or eight and nine, 90 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: I think that's a monumental accomplishment because they have no 91 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: depth either. That's the other thing they've they've they've put 92 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: all the credit cards are maxed out, and they went 93 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: all in for Breezes last few years, um again, trading 94 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: all their draft picks to get one guy. We need 95 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: this one guy. Well, now you're gonna pay for that. 96 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 1: You're gonna pay for that. I mean even Harbaugh pre 97 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: Lamar kept that team competitive when they weren't that good either. 98 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: I mean Flaccos are quarterback and I mean it's I 99 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 1: very much believe that there's a handful of coaches that 100 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: are always going to be in it, you know, and 101 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: if you give them the right things like read, you 102 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: luck into you, you skill your way into a Mahomes boom, 103 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're the best coach in the league. 104 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: You know, With all respect to Ben, If Steelers draft 105 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: my homes next year, Tomlin is not going to be 106 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: eight or ninth head coaching lists in the sudden, He'll 107 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: be a genius, right boy. Yeah, he's reinvented himself. You know. 108 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: That's the thing I think that Tomlin doesn't get enough 109 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: credit for. Is the draft stuffy, Yeah, he's the Steelers. 110 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: The way it works is the head coach and GM 111 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: in this case, Colbert and Tomlin work together to draft 112 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: these players. It's not you know, Kevin Colbert says this 113 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: all time. It's not my draft, it's not mic draft, 114 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: it's our draft. Um you could. You know, people want 115 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: to talk about, well, the Steelers have had all this 116 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: talent over the last decade, Well, who do you think 117 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,679 Speaker 1: require that? You know what? I also don't think people 118 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: realize that I don't know this for a fact. I 119 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: haven't been behind the walls. But I bet just because 120 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: of the things you said, they do it extremely well. 121 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: Is the running back coach tells the offensive coordinator and 122 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: the head coach this is the room I had. These 123 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: were my deficiencies. I could have done this better as 124 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: a coach. But if you gave me a back that 125 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: can do this and this I can run, I can 126 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: help you run your offense better, and then the coordinator 127 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: can help the head coach win games better. And I 128 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: think they listened to everybody has input, not just the capos. 129 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: They listen to this. You know some teams you know 130 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: you've mentioned before, like in New England, they're just information gatherers, 131 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: scout the information gatherers. It's Belichick's draft, right. I think 132 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: Kevin listens to a Scott. I was about to say, 133 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: is that that's the coaching side, you know, that's one 134 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: cats Testio's regime over here, and then Kevin's regime him. 135 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: I think he listens to all the area scouts too, 136 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: who then report to the college director, who then report 137 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: to Kevin. And then Kevin gathers all that information and 138 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: values it accordingly. He doesn't just say thanks and throws 139 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: it in the fire. It doesn't always work that way 140 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: because I was around when when you know, there were 141 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: clashes between Tom Donna Hoe and and that was really 142 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: what it was about, you know, Donna, who's like you know, 143 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 1: when Cower first got there to the to Pittsburgh, Donnah 144 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: saw himself as cowards boss. He helped hire him, He 145 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 1: helped hire you know, so that it was one of 146 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: the better gms in the league. People forget too and 147 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: well established, right and well he's not playing my guys. 148 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: You know, it's always a conflence since the dawn of time, right, 149 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: or I got you talent to develop and you didn't 150 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: develop it, you know what I mean. And there was 151 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 1: some of that, like for example, Mike Vrabel, Okay, you know, 152 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: second second round. You know, what are you doing with 153 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: Mike Vrabel? One year he's a defensive end and next 154 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: year you want him at linebacker. Then the next year 155 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: you move him back to defenseman. What is he and 156 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: and by the time he goesnds pounds. Yeah, that you 157 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: could see the talent was there. They just couldn't figure 158 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: out how they wanted to use him. And then he 159 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 1: goes to New England and he becomes you know, a 160 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: really good player on good football teams. Um, but it 161 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: was because the hunch. I mean, he was much more 162 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: in New England. He was I remember more as a 163 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: Patriot than a Steeler, of course, because he's a better 164 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: career than was here for four years. Yeah, he was 165 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: a much better Greg Lloyd than he was Aaron Smith 166 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: in my opinion, because but he would have been better 167 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: Floyd or Gilded Well, he would have been better with 168 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: what the Steelers do with their defensive lineman. Now he 169 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: was Breck Kisel before Breck Kisel a long Him and 170 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: mcguinnis were more edge guys, but they wanted heavier ones 171 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 1: and they wanted the Steelers wanted their defensive lineman. At 172 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: that point, you're gonna we one our linebackers to make 173 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: all the plays. You guys are taking on double you know, 174 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: double teams and freeing things up. If you get to 175 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: the quarterback, great, If not, that's not what you're here for. 176 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: You're here to take on the double teams and allow 177 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: Kevin Green and Greg Lloyd to get to the court. Well, 178 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: now you know he cam, hey, we're go get the 179 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: quarterback of Stefan to go get the quarterback. That's why 180 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: you've seen the bigger sack numbers in recent years out 181 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: of the defensive lineman because they've they've changed, you know, 182 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: they want him getting up field. If you had Mike 183 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: Vrabel doing that, he would be fine here pounds. He 184 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: always took me as somewhat of a tweener and nobody 185 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: could figure it out, which until somebody did figure it 186 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: out and just happen to be a different city. But 187 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: he wasn't as twitchy as Green or Lloyd or know that. 188 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: That was not right right, It was not what he was. 189 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: But he was a long again athlete like Breck Kisel 190 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,559 Speaker 1: in that Mold Belichick really likes that. Going back to 191 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: the Parcels and Giants team building, he really likes size 192 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 1: on the front line. You know, so it but yeah, 193 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: it's a great example. But that's the you know, the 194 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: give and take between the front office in the in 195 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: the you know, the you can put your egos side team, 196 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: your either cower or done and say let's just stick 197 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: with one for the better the team, whether it's my 198 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: opinion or not. He was taken him back and forth. 199 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: Is you're just watching years off his rookie contract go 200 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: away right, which is essentially what happened there. Um, you know, 201 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: so you have those kind of situations. You don't have 202 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: that with the one thing I'll say about Kevin Corbyn, 203 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: he has no ego, you know, and so you know 204 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. Um, you know, I was he just 205 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: wants the right answer, you know. Again, he didn't take 206 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: the GM role or title until he started costing him 207 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: spots in press boxes like right right running the whole 208 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: and he was the number one dog in the organ. 209 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: You still see you still see this the listing sometimes 210 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: Kevin Colber GM since two thousand and twelve or whatever, 211 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: whenever he got the title. There's ten years before that 212 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: where he's been here. He's been the guy running their 213 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: draft for two decades. Hasn't change. He just didn't have 214 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: that title. And we've got to know them and their 215 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: area scouts. They trust them and they've been there a 216 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: long time. There's very little turnover. You know. Those guys 217 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: go in the same schools every year. And boy, I've 218 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: said this before, that's unbelievably beneficial because I was a 219 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: rookie flopping around like a fish out of water every 220 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: school I went into, and I saw the guys that 221 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: did it well, and there Hey, what's up, Bob? You 222 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 1: getting Fred? You know, here's the donut bringing in the 223 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: donuts every day, quarterback ruse the sophomores to watch, you know, 224 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: and their buds, and you're like, oh man, I'm so 225 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: far from that. I'm just watching tape here and being 226 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 1: quiet and not trying to embarrass myself. Yeah. So, you know, 227 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: I think I haven't trust every one of them because 228 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: he's done in a year after year. That's information. He 229 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 1: said earlier this week that the Steelers, he doesn't look 230 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: at them as lacking depth. He just looks at them 231 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 1: as lacking proven guys at some of those which goes 232 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: back to my big theory of trusting your draft process. 233 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: Right the justin lanes of the world they like, you know, 234 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: maybe Steal Nation doesn't yet because they haven't seen much 235 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: of them. Or McFarland, I think is a great example. 236 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: Antoine Brooks were getting all kinds of good reports of 237 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 1: and he's getting a lot of playing time. Well, they 238 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: drafted him for a reason, and the poor guy didn't 239 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: do anything wrong between his draft day and today to 240 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 1: dislike them. And it's true for all across the league. Yeah, um, 241 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 1: so how would they be proven? Yeah, you're not proven 242 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: until you are, and you have to have that opportunity, 243 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: you know. So guys like Ulysses Gilbert or Buddy Johnson 244 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: or these are guys that they like, they're counting on. 245 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: These are guys that they liked well enough to draft 246 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: and and and you know, and they've kept them around 247 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: to develop. Um. I think the Steelers do as good 248 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: a job of developing the guys beyond the starting lineup. 249 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: I mean, it's really hard to do once the season starts. 250 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: Is Allan's winning this upcoming week with giving these guys 251 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: a little bit of something or figuring out their niche 252 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: or how can they shine on practice squad or uh 253 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,719 Speaker 1: scout team, you know, and give them an opportunity to 254 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: at least show what they can do and keep them interested, 255 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: you know. I mean I keep We've even talked about 256 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: this a lot, but I keep looking at the louder 257 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: Milk Davis Bugs crew like one of those guys is 258 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: gonna be good. I don't know who it is, but 259 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: they only need one of them to be good. But 260 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: one of those guys is gonna be good. I think 261 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: they like louder Milk a lot. They sure seem to 262 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: you said, he's very impressive just walking to the he 263 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: looks like Hayward and two it, which you don't typically get. 264 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I bet he's even longer, taller, longer arms. Yeah, 265 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: he's that well built though. Yeah, I mean there's there's 266 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: might be something there. And I know, you know, I 267 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: heard Tom Blin yelling at him. That's still you know 268 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: where to go there ninety two. He's wearing ninety two, 269 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: which makes it look really weird because he's a big 270 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: dude and it has not been worn by a big 271 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: dude in recent years. Um, but uh, yeah, I mean, 272 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: you know, I think that that that's the one thing. Um. 273 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: You know, people talk about what happens if t J. 274 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: Watt goes down, Well that's different. Well what happens if 275 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: Miles garrickos down her bossa? You know, right, we saw 276 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: it in San Francisco last year. I mean it's no 277 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: team handles that. Well, yeah, but there are certain you know, 278 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: and don't blame the GM, right, Oh, you don't have 279 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: a backup plan from when t J. Watt and Cam Hey, 280 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: we're both got hurt in the same game. Nobody's talking 281 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: to Mickey Loomis, say, Mickey what do you did? Michael 282 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: Thomas is out and now we've got no wide receivers 283 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: and they're going to kill him for it because they 284 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: didn't bring in a lot of us thought they would 285 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: bring in a receiver and they didn't, and they have 286 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: any money. I thought their first round pick might be 287 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: Darius Tone, you know what I mean, or Elijah More 288 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: or somebody like that, and then didn't address it at 289 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: all in the draft. So, I mean, I guess there's 290 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: a little room to criticize, but it looks a lot. 291 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: But he didn't know Michael Thomas couldn't go this year, right, 292 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Yeah, we're last year for 293 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: that matter, right, And now I heard some things and 294 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a dred percent true, but 295 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: I guess Thomas, this is just a few reports reported 296 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: to training camp and the team doctors like why haven't 297 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: you been rehabbing this? Like he didn't do anything too, 298 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: and they're like, you gotta get surgery. Right to second son, 299 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: you haven't not had improved it. And some of it's 300 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: on the player too. Oh absolutely, I mean, you're kids 301 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: ran the steps like crazy. If they misstreatment a pit, 302 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: you know you're hurting the team. You're being selfish here. 303 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: Part of it's on you. Yeah, you're a professional. Goes 304 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: back to that what Mike Tomlin talked about with Mason 305 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: Rudolph yesterday. That's what professionals do. You're a professional. You're 306 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: getting paid a lot of money to do this. Take 307 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 1: care of your body.

Dave Burke asks, can you guys break down 330 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: the priority traits for a slot corner I saw that 331 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: Brooks shed twenty pounds and assuming he did that to 332 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: get more agile for I'm assuming he did that to 333 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:55,440 Speaker 1: get more agile for this competition. Well, absolutely did that. 334 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: As he told me, he's down between two hundred and 335 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 1: two hundred and five pounds. He was listened to to 336 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: twenty coming out of because if you remember when they 337 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: drafted him, he was five eleven to twenties. He's a 338 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: pretty thick. He thought, well, maybe they're going to look 339 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: at him, is that that dime linebacker spot total opposite 340 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,679 Speaker 1: direction and now he's you know, they're looking at him 341 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: as a slot cornerback, which goes back to our conversation 342 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: last segment. These guys have plans for these draft picks 343 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: and develop them, you know, noting that year one is 344 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: not going to be super important, whether than other than 345 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: special teams. But they also be Mike Hilton camp Sutton 346 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: were free agents. You know, it's not much different than 347 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: the pre situation. I actually wrote about this exact thing, 348 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: um in my Friday insider on on d K Pittsburgh 349 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: Sports dot com. Um, yesterday, I guess it would be Friday. 350 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: Yesterday was Friday, I guess, so really the same to 351 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: me right now? Um, But you keep hearing the words 352 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 1: Mike Hilton thrown around a lot, looking for the next 353 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 1: Mike Hilton, looking for the next Mike Hilton guy. Right, 354 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: You know what they're looking for is a guy in 355 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: net slot position who can blitz, who can play the run, 356 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: and who can cover and no offense Mike, but it 357 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: isn't five six Yeah, who could have can hold up there? That? 358 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: So you're looking at Brooks. He's five eleven again, two 359 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: two hundred and five pounds, okay. Arthur Millette is five 360 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: nine hundred. He's a thicker guy. Yeah. I haven't seen 361 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: him in person much, but he looks like his shoulders 362 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: are a little wider he's bigger than He's definitely bigger 363 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,159 Speaker 1: than than Hilton than Hilton. I'm getting the idea here, 364 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: And I asked Millette about this. You know, um, you know, 365 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: it's blitzing a big part of get part of this. 366 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: He goes, yeah, you watched the tape of you know, 367 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: we watched the tape of Mike Hilton all the time 368 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: playing this position, and that's a big part of his job. 369 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: Hilton missed three games last year and according to Pro 370 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: Football Focus, still rushed to pass or seventy times. So 371 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: they blitzed him seventy times. It's five or six times 372 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 1: a game. And he's not on the field for every snap, right, 373 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: I mean Sutton was in there occasionally. You don't. Sometimes 374 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: you're in base and some of those are run blitzing, 375 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: so that that doesn't count the times where he and 376 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: the other team was running and you're blitzing into the run. 377 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: It's so it's more than that. Even that's a big 378 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: part of what they want to do. So they can 379 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: run their defense the same way if they have that guy. 380 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 1: If it's Cam Sutton, Cam Sutton played the same spot 381 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: for I think it was over two hundred snaps last year. 382 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 1: And he blitz I think seven times, So there's not 383 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 1: an accident. It's it's not the same thing, better than 384 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 1: the other, one's better, the other one's better cover guy 385 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: than you, and something. They think Sutton's an outside longstanding 386 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: you know in Sutton, Sutton is better in coverage. Hilton 387 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: was better doing those things. So you're gonna play to 388 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: your strengths in those situations. I love for those two 389 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: to have a baby and be the perfect luck corner, right, 390 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: That's gonna happen real quick on this question though. I 391 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: mean his his question was what traits do you look for? 392 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: The three that stand out to me? Again, but it 393 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: depends on the team. Not every team's gonna look for 394 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: the same thing. That's why gonna be interested to see 395 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: how Cincinnati uses Hilton this year. I hope they don't 396 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: do it like they did James Harrison. Right, if they 397 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: asked him to be strictly that, Okay, you're our slot cornerback, 398 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: so you're just gonna cover all the time, right, that's 399 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: not what he with Juju, and that's stuffs in the 400 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: division landry, you know, like you're gonna lose. Or if 401 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 1: they put him outside, ever, he's gonna lose. You know. 402 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 1: What I mean is like, oh, a corner is a corner, um. 403 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: But anyway, the three traits. If I was looking for 404 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 1: a slot corner, but specifically the Steelers slot corner, he's 405 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: gotta be tough. Yeah, he's gotta be tough. He's got 406 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: to be able to stick his face in there. He's 407 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: got to embellish contact. He has to be tough. I 408 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 1: would also say very quick recognition, very processor. Things happened 409 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: very quickly, you know, jet motion, and then that you'll 410 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: become the slot guy or a pulling guard or play 411 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: action and now and stuff behind. And then lastly is 412 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 1: change the direction, you know, and that goes back. I 413 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: think that how he mentioned in the question, much more 414 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: agile than fast. You'd love to have a flat fast 415 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: slot corner, but Hilton was a four six guy. Yeah, 416 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean teams are doing it more because most of 417 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 1: the corners have those skills more than speed. You'll get 418 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,199 Speaker 1: tiree killed in the slot and it'll run goes, but 419 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:18,919 Speaker 1: at least make is there, you know, I mean, like 420 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 1: you's still have some sort of help or a linebacker 421 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: can reroute him. And when the thing is is you 422 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: hope that your pass rush gets there before that guy 423 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: runs past your slot corner, without question. But those would 424 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 1: be the three traits in order that they got to have. 425 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: And I don't know if Brooks hasim or not. We'll see. 426 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 1: I mean, um, obviously slimming down will help the agility, 427 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: but he was a four six pounds right, so he's 428 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: probably gotten a step faster. But I don't know if 429 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 1: he's got quicker or changing the direction. I just don't 430 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 1: know that they played. He did play in the slot 431 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: his first two seasons that he actually played, Apparently he 432 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 1: was there slot. He was the slot guy in those 433 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: two seasons. Is his sophomore In junior years he had 434 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: three intercept in three and a half sacks. Yeah, that 435 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: also lends itself to the recognition in my opinion. I mean, 436 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: he probably processes the game pretty quick. He's been near 437 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage a lot and near the ball 438 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: a lot. And he's probably tough, you know, because he's 439 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: he's banged with offensive lineman his whole career. He hasn't 440 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 1: sat in deep middle nowhere near the ball, you know 441 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,919 Speaker 1: what I mean. But he has done those things because 442 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: they he said his senior year is when they started 443 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 1: moving him all over and you know, playing him deep safety, 444 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: playing him in this you know, strong safety, doing those 445 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 1: kind of things with him. But primarily his first two 446 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: years he was a slut. He was a slot cornerback. 447 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: That's what Mike Tomlin first. You know, it's no coincidence. 448 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 1: There's a little Maryland connection with the Steelers to that. 449 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: You know, Tomlin's Tomlin's son, and Keith Butler talks about 450 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: this when Mike spotted this guy, you know, back when 451 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 1: he's in college because his son, you know, his son 452 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: was going to Maryland. I should know this. But the 453 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: m Cannada coincide with Brooks there probably, so you know, 454 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,199 Speaker 1: there's there's all kinds of They knew what kind of 455 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: guy he was, they knew how what he was in 456 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 1: the locker room, they knew he had done that. You know, 457 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: I'm sure Mike Thomas looking at that guy looks like 458 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 1: Mike Hilton. You know, he does a lot of the 459 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: same stuff Mike. People were judging him as a safety, 460 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: but we're judging him as a slot corner and none 461 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: of us knew that until this camp, which they're sneaky sometimes, 462 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,199 Speaker 1: but that was would be the traits I look for. 463 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,360 Speaker 1: Of course, you'd like long arms and running to run 464 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: a four three and you know six to and that'd 465 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: be wonderful. But the things I have to have for 466 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: those three look around the league at all the slot cornerbacks, 467 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 1: and they come in all shapes and sizes, and most 468 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 1: of them smaller. Though. Yeah, there's another story for another day, 469 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,360 Speaker 1: but I wonder our slot corner is going to kind 470 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: of be like running backs in terms of shelf life. 471 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: It's hard to be a slock corner for ten, you know. 472 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: I mean, so people not invest in them. You're not 473 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 1: gonna give Hilton big money? Is that smart? Because I 474 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: can find someone else to beat up for five years? 475 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: Kind of running back argument? Because you know, it's a 476 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 1: very demanding receivers too. I mean last year was really 477 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: the first year that Hilton got nicked up playing that spot. 478 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: I mean, he'd been pretty durable despite throwing his body around. 479 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: Uh you know, but he missed time last year playing 480 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: the run. Playing the run. You know, if it was 481 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: if it's got to be hard on the it was 482 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 1: a play against Kareem Hunt, and Kareem Hunt, you know, 483 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: he put his shoulder into cream Hunt and you know 484 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: lost that battle, he was given up. He's had a 485 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: lot of battles. Yeah, and I wish him the best. 486 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 1: I just if I'm the Bengals, I would have hesitated 487 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: to give him money. Yeah, great guy. I mean again, 488 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be very interested on how they use him. 489 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 1: If they use him as other teams us their slock, 490 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: you're just gonna go go out there and cover. That's 491 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: not using Mike Hilton. It's not smart, right, Yeah, if 492 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna blitz him like crazy, And now I don't 493 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: know what they're blitz I don't know what their style 494 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: is on defense nowadays. They're a little hard to get 495 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: a read on. To be honest with you, it's just 496 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 1: a bad defense. It's a bad defense. And they've they've 497 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: kind of bounced around a little bit too. Um. They 498 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: do generally want long corners the trade Waynes and William 499 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,919 Speaker 1: Jackson's traditionally, So I would imagine Hilton does not go 500 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: outside ever. I mean that would be a crucial critical mistake. 501 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,719 Speaker 1: That's coaching mal practice there. Yeah, So it's gonna be interesting. 502 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: But I know the Steelers are looking for not necessarily 503 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: a Mike Hilton clone, but they want somebody that has 504 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: those Mike Hilton traits and Molts said the same thing, 505 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 1: almost paraded what you said. He they want somebody who's tough, 506 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: smart and can cover right, you know, okay, and a 507 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 1: lot of it. Like that's why I wanted quickness over speed. 508 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 1: If it's a Welker, it's probably a quick hitting route. 509 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: I got to change directions. He has a two way go. 510 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: I don't have to open it up and get to 511 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 1: four speed, you know what I mean. Um, I'll say, 512 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: you know people were when when the Steelers signed Millette. Uh, 513 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: you know, some people really went under the radar, like 514 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: it really did. Doesn't matter, you know if you look 515 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: at his numbers, Um, they've five guys on the team 516 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: that fit that bill that are new, even like Klin Balage. 517 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: I mean, some people kind of knew him from being 518 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: on their fantasy team because he's running back or um 519 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: coward to guard. You know, there's a handful of dudes 520 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,479 Speaker 1: they got for nothing, even kill a Brew Killer Brew 521 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: is a little bit of a track record to that. 522 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: No one in the it seems to be talking about. 523 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: But they're almost all gonna make the team, and they're 524 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: gonna have some contributions and they have they have an 525 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 1: idea in mind for every one of these players. Mallett 526 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: last year for the Jets played two seven snaps in 527 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: the slot. Uh. This according to again the Pro Football Focus. Yeah, 528 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: they're close those numbers. They also, um, play played a 529 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 1: hundred nine snaps at free safety. I don't know if 530 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 1: that meant he was dropping into in the deep or something. 531 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 1: They probably didn't line up at free safety. And only 532 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,439 Speaker 1: fifteen snaps on the outside and he's not gonna do 533 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,479 Speaker 1: that well. The year before that, the Jets played him 534 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: tight snaps as an outside cornerback. He gave. I mean 535 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: he was not good out there. Yeah, he so if 536 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: you when you look at his sitting, you're thinking, no 537 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 1: team has been worse a corner of the last two 538 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: or three years in the Jets. So maybe they're just 539 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 1: throwing the right So last year for the Jets, um 540 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: he gave up twenty one completions on thirty two pass 541 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: attempts from the slot for two or twenty one yards 542 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: two touchdowns in an interception. Um, you know, I look 543 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: at it and go, well, that's not great. They don't 544 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 1: rush the pastor well either, they don't rush the passer 545 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 1: and they're on the or the defenses on the field 546 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: all the Time's alot cornerbacks are going to give up 547 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: more higher completion percentage, right right, right, much easier throws. Yeah, 548 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: I mean fantasy note. You want guys that line up 549 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: in the slot, you get a lot of cheap targets 550 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: and a lot of cheap, you know, receptions. I mean, 551 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: that's just a lot harder job. You know, if you 552 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: compare that to his numbers from previous seasons, like he 553 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: was giving up you know, on the outside, it's like 554 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: completion percentage because that's not necessarily where you want to 555 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: use a five ft nine cornerback. I I trust the 556 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: Steelers to get more out of him than the Jets 557 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: got out of him. Yeah, I'll just leave it at 558 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: that. That That was Adam Gayze's staff. By Adam Gayze's staff, 559 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: and they didn't have Watton Hayward rushing the passer, and 560 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: they don't exactly have the best track records with corners. 561 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 1: He may be terrible, but I bet the Steelers get 562 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,239 Speaker 1: more ou of him in the Jets did. Yeah. All 563 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: I'm saying what I didn't know about him, and Tomlin 564 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: brought this up is that he's been a really good 565 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: special teams player, do I hope? So, yeah, that makes sense. 566 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: I wonder if he's a gunner, you know, important stuff 567 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: on special team. Probably. Yeah, So I think there's he's 568 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: a guy to watch him. He's like a team. He 569 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: probably makes his team. I mean, I think he's your 570 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: you know, worse, your your backup slot. Um, it's a 571 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: great special teamer. When they've gone dime, which they just 572 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: started doing the last couple of days, they've moved Sutton inside, 573 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 1: he's been the dime linebacker. Hmm. I think they're I 574 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: bet they're searching for that. Well, they're using he's playing 575 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: he's playing the old William Gay role. Yeah. Um, and 576 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: it's been he's done that before. Yeah, that's that was 577 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: always his his spot. And I think that they like 578 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: that real quick. When you say dime, are you talking 579 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: four corners and two safeties or three and three? Well 580 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: probably four corners. Yeah, it's four corners, so Lane or 581 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: Pierre comes on outside. It's been Pierre. So Lane has 582 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: not been in the top four, right, Okay, it's tough 583 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: to judge those well because it's not that may snap 584 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: so well, because because you're not seeing Hayden out there 585 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 1: a lot, Okay, I understand. Understanding, Yeah, okay, because I 586 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 1: mean you could do when when they bumped and right 587 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: now they're using it's I know, on the depth chart 588 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: it says lane is. That doesn't matter right when they've 589 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 1: when they've done that, it's it's been Pierre. Okay. So 590 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: Pierre and Hayden would be the outside guys if they 591 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: lined up today and when they go to dime, you 592 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: think Sutton would be in the middle of the field. 593 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: Something's in the old William gay Toy paula Malo spot. Okay, 594 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: you know, but if you get a two by two set, 595 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: because he's going out, he's going outside to the slot. Yeah, okay. Interesting, No, 596 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 1: I think they're looking for that, not only nickel, but 597 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: dime back because usually we also usually when you're in 598 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: dime it's third and ten or longer third and eight. 599 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: They likely to run the ball as much. And people, 600 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 1: I mean people are probably wondering who comes off I 601 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: imagine a Lulu and splane or off thea. You get 602 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: your two defensive linemen up front, your two outside linebackers, 603 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: and then Bush and Bush. It's been splained, but it's 604 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: going Jerrylasky said, well, it's going to be Bush, but 605 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 1: right now we're usually slaying of course. Yeah, I also 606 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: think and we're off a lot of time. Once in 607 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,479 Speaker 1: a while, I bet they bring to It or Hayward 608 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: off the field and that's Ingram on the inside and 609 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: you get somewhat of a NASCAR package. But I still 610 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: think that they like, I mean, taking Twitter Hayward off 611 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: the fields never a good idea, not a good idea. 612 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: And Keith Butler they have that. Butler actually said that 613 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 1: when he was asked about that, what could you use 614 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 1: him in those all three linebackers at the same time 615 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: in those rush package He's like, well, that would mean 616 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: I'm taking Hayward to it off the field. Probably not 617 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: unless you're you know, a fourteen plays in a row 618 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: of of nickel or dime. Yeah, then maybe you do that, 619 00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: or it's third and twelve, you know, five of them 620 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: are out there. I don't know, it's it's something Ingram 621 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: can do. Yeah he is. Matt Williamson, I'm Dale Lolly. 622 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: We want to thank who did I say had that question? 623 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: That was Dave Burke. We'll get some more questions here 624 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: as the show. As the show continues, but we're gonna 625 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: take a break right now.

Every time 651 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: I bring up Chart Week, I used to be the 652 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: biggest Shark Week fan ever, and now it's all like 653 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 1: Shark Week with the pimple popper shock the Shark Week, 654 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:07,479 Speaker 1: like I want to see the Sharks. Haskins Dobbins. Okay. 655 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: So the first the first picks number one one was 656 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry Wow, then McCaffrey, Cook, Taylor at four, Camar 657 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: at five, Chubb at six. I wouldn't have considered Chib 658 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 1: or Taylor at our spot. Here's what's left. Ezekiel, Elliott, 659 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: sae Quon Barkley, Aaron Jones, Tyreek Hill are the top 660 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: suggestions for us, The top running backs available. Elliott, Barkley, Jones, Gibson. 661 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 1: I don't think we've ever taken Barkley or Elliott. I'm 662 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: starting to warm up to both where I was down 663 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,720 Speaker 1: on both. I know there's some Risks there, Elliott looked bad. 664 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: All reports have been great. It's a great offense. But 665 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,439 Speaker 1: I worry that we're that he's on the back nine 666 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: because it can happen quick and boy, he has an 667 00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 1: immense workload in his career. I know, but I was 668 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: gonna say going back to Ohio State. I mean, he's 669 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 1: really touched the ball a lot. But I would gladly 670 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: take him here, and he catches the football, and he's 671 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: the safer pick than Barkley. I agree, it's a much 672 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: better offense. Yeah, is that the pick? I'm cool with it. Yeah, Okay, 673 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: I don't love that. I don't love it, but a 674 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: little no man, right right right, I'd rather take him 675 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 1: at nine, you know. Okay? So two six is up. 676 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 1: Top running backs available Na Harris, Austin, Ekeler, J K. Dobbins, 677 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 1: Chris Carson one of the top two. We were talking 678 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: off the year. I like Eckler more than you, and 679 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,360 Speaker 1: you certainly have good points because he's not a banger. 680 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 1: He's not a goal line guy. But I think he's 681 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: Kamara and Lombardi's new offense there. I trust Harris m Yeah, 682 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 1: he's gonna get Harris is gonna get double digit touchdowns. 683 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: The catches. Maybe he catches twenty fewer balls, but the 684 00:35:56,120 --> 00:36:01,320 Speaker 1: touchdown score three touchdowns. Touch Yeah, and he's a banger. 685 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 1: So you give me Harrison Middle second round, Ezekiel Elliott 686 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 1: and Naja Harris is a nicety, ain't bad. It's a 687 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: lot of touches and a lot of talent, a lot 688 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: of touchdowns, a lot of touchdowns. We're back up again 689 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:17,360 Speaker 1: here now at in the third round. The top suggested 690 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,800 Speaker 1: players for US Mike Evans, Keenan Allen, Ceedee Lamb, Josh Allen. 691 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 1: I can't do Alan. I don't think all three of 692 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: those receivers are fine. Is there a J. K. Dobbins 693 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: still available, which just curious? Or a Waller or a 694 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 1: Kittle or top running backs available Carson Montgomery, Sanders, Jacobs. 695 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,399 Speaker 1: I could do that. Uh, and the top three tight 696 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 1: ends top tight ends are all gone? Okay, Hawkinson Andrew's 697 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 1: Pits or the top guys available there. I think this 698 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 1: has to be a receiver. Then do you have a 699 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 1: favorite of that group? None of them are jumping off 700 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: the page of me the ones you listed, But I 701 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: don't dislike any of them. They're all fine. They're all doubles. 702 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,320 Speaker 1: To me, we did to already take Ezekiel Elliott. Do 703 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: you take to Seedee Lamb Ezekiel Elliott. It's gonna be 704 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 1: a high powered offense. I have no qualms with that. 705 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,280 Speaker 1: I mean, that's an offense. I wanted as many shares 706 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: as I can get. I think he's more like Mike 707 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: Evans is fine, but there were a lot of games 708 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: last year where he had two catches for twelve yards 709 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:14,319 Speaker 1: on one or both of them were touchdowns. I would 710 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,959 Speaker 1: just say Brady really favors him in the red zone 711 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: more than Winston did or whomever. I think that's a 712 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 1: real thing. And he's super consistent. But Lamb might have 713 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: the higher ceiling, and I think Lamb lam might catch 714 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: on the ball, could blow up. Yeah. I think he's 715 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 1: better than Cooper. I think he's better than Gallup. I'm 716 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 1: finally Yeah, Okay, Seedee Lamb is the pick in the 717 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: third round, and we're cruising on down here. We're back 718 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:44,760 Speaker 1: up again. The top players available for US Chris Godwin 719 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 1: bad and that's a good reason why you know we 720 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 1: didn't take Evans or Godwin's almost the same thing we 721 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 1: didn't take Evans. If we take Evans there, we can't 722 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: take Godwin, So now we could take god Win there 723 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: and be okay, we could came out that pretty well. 724 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: He got one in one A. I think Godwin's a 725 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: lot better he showed last year. I thought I was 726 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 1: hurt almost the whole year. Yeah. D J. Moore and 727 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,839 Speaker 1: Mark Andrews, Kyler Murray are the top suggestions more verse 728 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 1: godwins a conversation for me, the top UH wide receivers 729 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: overall or Godwin, Robert Woods, d J. Moore, Adam Feeling. 730 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 1: Cleveland's last on that list for me. UH tight ends 731 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 1: is Andrews Howkinson got Itt Tanyan interesting but a little 732 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: rich for me. Quarterbacks Kyler Murray, Dak Prescott, Russell Wilson, 733 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,759 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. I think I'd take one of the receivers, 734 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 1: probably Godwin. I think Godwin's gotta be the pick. Yeah, 735 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: in the fourth round. That guy was going in the 736 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: second round last year and really didn't do anything to 737 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 1: hurt his stock, and two years ago was probably you 738 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 1: know if you if you redrafted rate after mid season, 739 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: was the first round draft pick. And he's still really 740 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: good at football. Okay, so we're back up again here 741 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 1: in the fifth round. The top receivers available now Beckham, Higgins, Locket, 742 00:38:56,120 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 1: Deante Johnson, Top six A, top six ested players for US, Lockett, Hawkinson, 743 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, Darrell Henderson. Darrell Henderson is still available. Oh 744 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: my goodness. Yes, how's that happening? Yeah, that should not happen. Yeah. 745 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: I probably would take him last round if I knew that, 746 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 1: to be honest. Yeah, he wasn't on. Yeah, should have been. 747 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: If Hawkinson's here around the bend, though, I would be 748 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 1: very interested. He is not. I was shocked he was 749 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 1: still there. It's daughter Tanyan Fan Higbee Man, Yeah, Um, Beckham, Claypool, Sutton, Chark. 750 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: It's a wide receiver position. We're gonna fight because I 751 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 1: want to tell he's like your least favorite draft pick 752 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,439 Speaker 1: in the history of the world. He's good. Still can't 753 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: he can't stay healthy. I understand he can't stay healthy, 754 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 1: and we already have Chris Gobwin who has had some 755 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: like soft tissue injury stuff. Yeah. I know it's gonna 756 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 1: be a tough one to convince you on, but I 757 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 1: think he's the best one of that group. Quarterback position, 758 00:39:56,680 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: Wilson Rogers. I think Wilson's way better than Rod Brady 759 00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 1: and Hurts. What is the there's my homes and then 760 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 1: there's like five guys. And I used to think Wilson 761 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 1: was in the third tier. I think he's in his 762 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: own tier. Like I think he's well above Rogers, Brady, Herbert, 763 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 1: those guys. He throws deep, he runs. I think that 764 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 1: offense is much improved. I would vote Wilson. Okay, we're back. 765 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 1: I'm problem with that. We're back on. I just I 766 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,400 Speaker 1: can't pull the trigger on back. I can't pull the 767 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 1: trigger on a guy that I know is going to 768 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 1: play twelve games most at most. That's why you draft 769 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 1: the fourth guy. Okay, we're back up again. The top 770 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: guys here for the top suggestions, Courtland Sutton. I like 771 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:45,879 Speaker 1: Sutton too. That's nice. I'll we have three backs that 772 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 1: he's our fourth dude, but I didn't think he'd be. 773 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: There's always tradable come out of these. Yeah, whe most 774 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 1: at Melvin Gordon. The top receivers available, Sutton, Jerry Judy, 775 00:40:55,640 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 1: that's a tough conversation. Robbie Anderson, Juju. Robbie Anderson's pretty good. 776 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 1: I don't think we've ever owned him, but he's he 777 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:07,279 Speaker 1: produces he was pretty good last year with Teddy, But 778 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 1: Teddy he was the check that he was the he 779 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,040 Speaker 1: was a check down. Yeah, you would think of the 780 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:12,879 Speaker 1: other way. I would have to look, and I haven't 781 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,280 Speaker 1: done this research on him. I will before I draft. 782 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 1: What were his numbers? Like with Donald Good, they had 783 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 1: a very good report. That's when Robbie Anderson became a 784 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,359 Speaker 1: fantasy thing. Matt Rule loves him. I mean he had 785 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 1: him a temple. I think he understands how to use 786 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 1: the guy. I don't think he's just a a deep 787 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 1: ball guy. Would I take him over both Denver receivers though, 788 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: that's a tough call for me. We end up with 789 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,320 Speaker 1: Judy a lot, we never end up with Robbie Anderson. 790 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: The Denver thing scares me, Like all three of those 791 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,839 Speaker 1: guys are available, including fans, and they're all worth about 792 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 1: the same to me, and boy, I just think they're 793 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: gonna pillage each other, just like the other the other 794 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:56,280 Speaker 1: receivers available. You're looking at Um Curtis, Samuel will Fuller, 795 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,800 Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd, Mike Williams. This is gonna be our third receiver. 796 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 1: M but one of those will be there with our 797 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 1: next pick. We've taken Mike Williams a lot of our 798 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,840 Speaker 1: fourth receiver. I don't know that one of those three 799 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 1: agreed agreed, I'd probably go Anderson. Okay, we'll roll the 800 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: dice and take Anderson sort of just to be different, 801 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: because we've usually done Judy in a similar situation, and 802 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 1: Judy is really good. Okay, we're back up again here 803 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 1: and our top suggested player Raheem Mostert, Zack Moss, will Fuller, 804 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 1: David Johnson. How about a tight end? Tight end is 805 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: Robert Tonyan that's your guy? Tyler Higbee? No offense, Mike 806 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 1: get Sickis Thomas available? Logan? Logan? Thomas is still available? 807 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 1: And why is he so low? I don't get that. 808 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: They just gave him a lot of money. He gets 809 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: better every time he gets on the field. He's a 810 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: good athlete, he's smart. I think people say, wow, they 811 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: brought in Samuel and a different quarterback. His targets are 812 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,439 Speaker 1: gonna shrink. I don't believe that. I think I take him. 813 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 1: Of all those light ends, you is my favorite. Yeah, 814 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 1: I mean we could probably wait around right right, But 815 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: you can't go buy off of what their list is. 816 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 1: You're like, yeah, I mean, if if you told me, 817 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 1: I said, Darrell Henderson thing. He didn't show up on 818 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: the on the queue there, So I'm like, okay, yeah, yeah, right, 819 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 1: well we're gonna take him now. I'm very on drafting. 820 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 1: I'm going down my list for punding tight ends. I'm 821 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 1: very comfortable starting Logan Thomas everywhere. He's the ninth round 822 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: pick or whatever. This Logan Thomas is the pick that 823 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 1: was our eighth round pick. Our starting spots are now, 824 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:36,319 Speaker 1: and we've got and we're back up again here. Um 825 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: the top suggested player Laviska Chenault. That's a nice wild 826 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:44,399 Speaker 1: card that could could easily supplant. He could he could 827 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 1: fall off the planet, or he could be our three 828 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: and we could be really in good shape. Yeah. I 829 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 1: mean when you look at the receivers, it's Marquis Brown, Laviska, 830 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 1: Shouldlt Michael Gallup, Davante Parker. I like, I like this 831 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: because the most out of those. YEA, let's sake, let's 832 00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: take it. Let's take him. I'm a big fan of 833 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: what he can do in the NFL. I don't know 834 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 1: if he'll be this year or if they'll get the 835 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:05,760 Speaker 1: most out of him, but I like the player a lot. 836 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:07,920 Speaker 1: If We're going to continue to roll the dice here. 837 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,760 Speaker 1: The top receiver is still available DeVante Parker, Darnell Mooney, 838 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:17,759 Speaker 1: Micole Hardman, and Henry Ruggs. Micole Hardman. If if something 839 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 1: were to happen to Tyree Hill, even if not, he's 840 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 1: a starter, he's a starter. He's taken over that Sammy 841 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 1: Watkins roll. If something happens to Hill, he becomes maybe 842 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: an easy wide receiver too. They'll figure out way to 843 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 1: get him the football. I just don't know if he's good. 844 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: I know he's fast. I know Andy Reid will find 845 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:39,919 Speaker 1: ways to get him the football. Ruggs is the same. 846 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:42,359 Speaker 1: This is his third year, isn't it. He's the same 847 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:45,839 Speaker 1: year as Deante, and he hasn't done much yet. And 848 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 1: I know that they you know, you look at the 849 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 1: wide receiver. He should be beating out the Marcus Robinson 850 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 1: and Byron Pringle over the last two years, and he 851 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 1: kind of does. But they don't go away. I don't know. 852 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 1: That's a high risk A ten round. I know, I 853 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:04,919 Speaker 1: hear you. Is there a back that's kind of fun? 854 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 1: Is Zach Boss or somebody like that? I highly doubt it. 855 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 1: Gus Edwards A J. Dillon let Tavis Murray, Devin Singletary. 856 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: J Dylon is kind of attractive. We could take me 857 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 1: cool you like him, I like Dylon, or we could 858 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 1: go the backup. We can take you get the backup 859 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 1: tight end route as well. Here in round ten, I'm 860 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 1: comfortable with Thomas. I think I'd rather roll the dice 861 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 1: on a tight or a running back receiver. Smith about 862 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 1: this Smith? Three rounds from now? What about a backup quarterback? 863 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts is still sitting there? Who else is floating around? 864 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:43,279 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, Matt Ryan, Kirk Cousins. Hurt stands out from that. 865 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 1: He stands out in that group by a lot. Hurts 866 00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 1: definitely as a a week one starter. Those other guys aren't. 867 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 1: To me. That's fine, we may never use them. He 868 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 1: could be a nice trade chip where you down the 869 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,760 Speaker 1: road if something, especially early in the season, if somebody's 870 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:06,320 Speaker 1: a quarterback go down. Okay, let's take one fantasy quarterback 871 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 1: to fell off the board too, when I mean he 872 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:11,720 Speaker 1: probably doesn't get drafted now right and nobody's a draft Easton. 873 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,399 Speaker 1: I heard bad stuff about Field yesterday too. They don't 874 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,359 Speaker 1: expect him. Got with the Bears in Bears camp doesn't 875 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,040 Speaker 1: expect him to start until week ten when they have 876 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 1: a play. Still have seven weeks left after that. But yeah, still, 877 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:24,880 Speaker 1: but you can pick him up in week five. Yeah, okay, 878 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:28,759 Speaker 1: So now we're back up again here, and the top 879 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 1: suggested picks Nelson Agilar, No, Nahim Heinz, it's Harmon or 880 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 1: Dylan or anything. Guys we brought up still Robert Tonyan 881 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,839 Speaker 1: running back, it's Lindsay, Coleman, Heinz, Jady mckissic. This might 882 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 1: blow your way, but Tanya might be the best guy 883 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,000 Speaker 1: on the board. Tanyan is the best tight end of 884 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 1: still on the board. I mean he might be their 885 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 1: number two receiver. Tight Ends do get hurt too, So yeah, 886 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 1: I would have. But Thomas gonna be your starter, right, 887 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean he looks like the best value of all 888 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 1: the players, even I don't want to and I don't 889 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:05,879 Speaker 1: you know those other guys are I'm anxious to cut them. 890 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 1: We're back up again here. In around twelve, Top suggested 891 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 1: picks Aglar, Lindsay, Jalen reagor Rashad Penny. No, how about 892 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:21,520 Speaker 1: a defense if it's that bad? Defense is the Ravens Washington, 893 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,920 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay San Francisco. I can't you know what this 894 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 1: is year four for Rashad Penny. Carson is low on 895 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:33,280 Speaker 1: my list of guys. Carson. Yeah, I don't trust Carson 896 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 1: to play seventeen games. We saw last year when they 897 00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 1: had to go, uh to the backup, they still ran 898 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 1: the football, Always run the football. Yeah, it's funny because 899 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 1: I'm guilty of this too, Like I would never take 900 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 1: a Penny in the first round. I didn't think it 901 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 1: was a great player coming out, but it doesn't mean 902 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 1: he stinks. Yeah, let's take him, all right, we're running 903 00:47:54,640 --> 00:48:00,359 Speaker 1: up against it here, yea umteen, I'm just gonna take 904 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: the best guy available here and the best guys the 905 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: top suggested players. James White, No, I can't do that. 906 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 1: Oh no, that's that's just a running wick. We're gonna 907 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 1: take the Ravens defense here, Yes, round fourteen, cruising on 908 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 1: down here. No, nobody wants Nelson Aguilar, Jalen reagor they 909 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 1: are still available. Um, We're gonna take Kenneth Gainewell in 910 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,520 Speaker 1: the fourteenth round. Just throwing it against the wall there. 911 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 1: I think he'll catch passes. He'll catch passes. He could 912 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 1: end up being the starters track record not good and kicker. 913 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:42,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna take our boy, Rodrigo Blanket Ship always seems 914 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 1: to be the guy right there. He's on the lollygaggers 915 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 1: all the time. We got a C plus on that one, 916 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:49,759 Speaker 1: a seventy seven out of a hundred. Kyle Yates loved 917 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:52,280 Speaker 1: our draft that time. He gave us an eighty seven. Actually, 918 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:53,560 Speaker 1: how do we get a seventy seven? We got an 919 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 1: eighty four from Dan Harrison, eighty from Mike Taglieri. Kyle 920 00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 1: Yates gave us an eighty seven. The hardest greader gave 921 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:00,880 Speaker 1: us a good one. Yeah, and Opa Sapia gave us 922 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:02,640 Speaker 1: a seventy five. That does not add out. It doesn't 923 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,480 Speaker 1: add up to a seventy seven. I'm sorry, Yeah you 924 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:10,239 Speaker 1: p J math Come on, I don't hate that team. No. 925 00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 1: I like to talk to backs and Henderson is my 926 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 1: third back. I mean that's our foundation. Will be good. 927 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 1: Russe Wilson never misses any games, right, I think that's 928 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 1: a high floor team. So that's gonna do it for 929 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 1: the Fantasy Football Focus. I'm Dale Lally. He has Matt 930 00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 1: Williamson will be back with our three of our marathon 931 00:49:27,280 --> 00:50:05,800 Speaker 1: show after yes asssssssssss,
