Speaker 2: we're gonna mark draft it today a little bit.

8
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 3: Okay, it's been a little while.

9
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 2: We h a lot of people have drafts up coming.

10
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

11
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're using the Draft Wizard on fantasypros dot Com.

12
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 2: Picking from the seventh hole.

13
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 3: I saidlet's go in the middle. I think we've taken

14
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:41,480
Speaker 3: the edges lately.

15
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 2: The seventh hole is where I am drafting at in

16
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 2: the league.

17
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 3: That okay, we're both in, so you're gonna be I'll

18
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 3: just throw my two cents in like we did whenever. Okay, two, So.

19
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:56,639
Speaker 2: The steel City Lantern Flies picking first. Actually these are

20
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: the names from our league.

21
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 3: So oh okay, okay, I said, what's the chance of

22
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 3: having a stealer related one?

23
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, So at seven, the first picks McCaffrey, Hill,

24
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: Lamb Hall, Chase b John Robinson.

25
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 3: Okay, so you don't even have the running back option. No.

26
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: To me, it comes down to a Monross, Saint Brown,

27
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 2: or Justin Jefferson.

28
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 3: I prefer Jefferson. But I think there's eight guys who

29
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 3: are really picking the top eight's nicest year. Yeah, particularly

30
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 3: near the end of the top eight, like seven, because

31
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 3: I don't think you go too wrong. But Saint Brown

32
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 3: is my eight.

33
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 2: I prefer Saint Brown.

34
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 3: Most people do.

35
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 2: Here's why. Fifteen games and domes this year, it's awesome. Yeah,

36
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 2: he led the league last year with ten one hundred

37
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 2: yard games.

38
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 3: Doesn't surprise me.

39
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 2: Remember he was dinged up a little bit.

40
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 3: Oh he fights, true, that's couple. He's one of the

41
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 3: toughest guys in the league.

42
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that was ten one hundred yard games, and

43
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 2: they were like there were two or three games where

44
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: he was nicked up and wasn't a full time player.

45
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 3: May even one or two he didn't play. Yeah, so

46
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 3: there was definitely one of the two he did.

47
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 2: He's a target monster.

48
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 3: I mean, Goff's better than Darnold too.

49
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a safer pick.

50
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just think Jefferson is a better player.

51
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 2: I think, Oh I'm not.

52
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, of course that's what it's not what we're.

53
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 2: Talking about we're doing Yeah, do it. If Justin Jefferson

54
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 2: had a quarterback, he's going two or three.

55
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 3: Or if he's a lion he might be one.

56
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, that's not right. So mon Ross ain't Brown

57
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 2: is the pick.

58
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 3: It would be hard to be disappointed in that pick.

59
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 3: He's gonna be solid.

60
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 2: Here's where the question comes in.

61
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 3: Though, Yeah, that second rounds not real.

62
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: Friends, I up here at two six, Now the picts

63
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 2: are right ahead of my pick.

64
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 3: Here, pa, I assume real quick PPR two receivers, one flex.

65
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 3: It's our league roles. Well, yeah, but our listeners don't knows.

66
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: It's only twelve of us that know that pook.

67
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,679
Speaker 2: Marvin Harrison, DeVante Adams go right ahead of me.

68
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: Okay, I bet you're not too broken up about Harrison

69
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 3: or Nakula not really.

70
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 2: No, that leaves Drake London.

71
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 3: Would you had jumped on Adams? Yeah, okay, over any

72
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 3: of the backs.

73
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 2: Or Travis atn Kyen Williams, Sam Laporta, I want.

74
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 3: To take a look at the backs real quick. Kyra

75
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 3: Williams is returning punts.

76
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 2: That doesn't bother me at all, though he did it

77
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 2: last year.

78
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 3: He did last year.

79
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: Opened the season yeah.

80
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 3: Did he really? I didn't know that. I just it

81
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 3: wouldn't change me drafting him. I just think he's not

82
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 3: gonna be the full time guy either then miss out. Okay,

83
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 3: I thought he was going to be the guy. No, No,

84
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 3: I would say that's dumb, Sean, what are you doing? Right?

85
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 3: It just puts him in harm's way.

86
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 2: So some of the running backs available you're looking at,

87
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 2: I don need to go any fre Travis, Travis ATN,

88
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 2: Karen Williams, Devin ah Chan, Derrick Henry, Isaiah Pacheco.

89
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 3: I assume Henry's INBA the pick, right, I'm gonna take Henry. Yeah,

90
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 3: I mean that's yeah, that's it. You'd be pretty happy

91
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 3: if he gets there.

92
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 2: Come out of the first two rounds of the monros

93
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 2: Saint Brown and Derrick Henry.

94
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, good Lamar. I mean even with Henry not there,

95
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 3: Lamar had very few rush attempts inside the five. Yeah,

96
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 3: And that's what owners say. I just gave him a

97
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 3: huge contract. We don't need him doing that. This guy.

98
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 3: And then that was without Henry. All right, So now

99
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 3: Henry w rec really high.

100
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 2: I'll bump at three. Seven running backs available, Rashaud White,

101
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 2: Alvin Kamara, James Cook, Joe Mixon.

102
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 3: I don't love that group.

103
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker, Mark Connors, wide receiver, Cooper Cup, Brandon Ayuk, Deebo, Samuel,

104
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 2: DeVonta Smith, DJ Moore, DK Metcalf.

105
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 3: Pretty solid. I bet there's a lot of receiver or

106
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 3: quarterbacks and tight ends.

107
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 2: Quarterbacks you're looking at Josh Allen, Patrick, Mahons, Martin, they're

108
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 2: all there. Maybe Hurts got picked tight end, Laporta McBride,

109
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 2: Mark Andrews, don't can care.

110
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 3: Basically all there. Yeah for me, it's early for quarterback

111
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 3: or tight end. But this is your team.

112
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 2: Yeah. Looking at the receiver group.

113
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 3: There's a lot. It's I have to hear the names again,

114
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 3: see if any stood out, But there was a lot

115
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 3: that were suitable.

116
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 2: Okay, so here's I want a little deeper here. So

117
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,799
Speaker 2: you got Cooper Cup, not bad, Brandon Ayuk, Deebo, Samuel.

118
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 2: I don't like having the Ayuk debo thing. That's not great,

119
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 2: not great. I want somebody I keep moving Cup up.

120
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 2: I want somebody else to make that decision for me.

121
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 2: DJ Moore, DK Metcalf, Malik neighbors of Ante Smith and

122
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 2: Stefan Diggs.

123
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 3: Neighbors is my number one in the group. I don't

124
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 3: think he's much different than Marvin this year.

125
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 2: I think in that group he probably is from me.

126
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 2: I think Metcal is probably number two. Is just the cup.

127
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 2: Cup is in that accusation cup up.

128
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I'm I haven't gotten there yet, but

129
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 3: I might end up in a week having Cup ahead

130
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:01,919
Speaker 3: in the KUPA.

131
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's certainly right now for the price.

132
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 3: For the price, it's easy.

133
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 2: It's easy.

134
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 3: But I just mean, if they're both on the block

135
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 3: or on the clock.

136
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take neighbors. I just think he's the only

137
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 2: he's the only game in town.

138
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 3: I don't think he's much different to Marvin at all,

139
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 3: who goes like three rounds ahead of them in right draft.

140
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 2: Okay, so I got my two starting receivers, although Deebo, Samuel,

141
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 2: DJ Moore, DK Metcalf, DeVante Smith all still there.

142
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 3: Good flex stuff. Yeah.

143
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 2: Running back you're looking at Kenneth Walker, James Connor, Ormandrie Stevenson,

144
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 2: Aaron Jones.

145
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 3: Like Jones and Walker two, I've gotten a lot in mocks.

146
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 2: I like Kenneth Walker there. Yeah, Quarterback you're looking at

147
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson, Anthony Richardson, CJ. Shrug, Kyler Murray.

148
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 3: Okay, so so where you pick though, if Lamar's I mean,

149
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 3: just like in the quarterback world, I'm not looking at

150
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 3: the board, of course, but I doubt Lamar gets back.

151
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: Probably I want them. I'd probably have to take him.

152
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, and there might be a cutoff after that, you

153
00:06:58,920 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 3: know what I mean?

154
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 2: Yeh, tight End, Trey McBride, don't Kincaid, iv An Ingram,

155
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 2: Kyle Pitts. That's starting to dry up a little.

156
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 3: Bit, yeah, saying Ingram's on the same levels as other three.

157
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 3: To me, No, and the top two stand out.

158
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

159
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 3: I like Pits too, I do too, I do too. Yeah,

160
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 3: but I wouldn't be thrilled if Pitts, Kinkaid and McBride went.

161
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

162
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 3: And of course, you know everyone's been in a draft room.

163
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 3: You could look and be like, of those six teams

164
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 3: between me and my next who took tight ends three,

165
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 3: you're already got none have gone whatever, you know. Yeah,

166
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 3: that's one of the nice thing be on the ends.

167
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 2: McBride or Kincaid. That's a tough question.

168
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 3: I've flipped them a million times.

169
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 2: I think I'm taking Kincaid. And here's why. The Marvin Harrison.

170
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 3: Fact, I think he's the one.

171
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know that McBride probably slides down to

172
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 2: a more secondary role now Inkaid doesn't have to fight

173
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 2: for as many targets.

174
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 3: I don't know which team throws the ball more. That

175
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 3: might be Arizona in my opinion. Yeah, but I definitely

176
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 3: think King Kaid's got a better chance to lead his

177
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 3: respective team in receptions, yeah than McBride.

178
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 2: Back up here at round five, Mandre Stevenson, Aaron Jones,

179
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 2: David Montgomery, DeAndre Swift, just.

180
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 3: Super curious did did the tight ends get picked through?

181
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 3: Did you make the right choice? Yeah? Okay, I knew

182
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 3: Kincaid wouldn't made it.

183
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, he did not want ride anywhere near me there. Okay,

184
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 2: Wide receiver, I'm looking at Zay Flowers, Terry McLaurin, T. Higgins,

185
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 2: George Pickens.

186
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have Pickens the highest of those. But McLaurin

187
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 3: and Higgins aren't bad, not bad. You need one back

188
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 3: at this point, right.

189
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, quarterbacks, you're looking at Richardson Coyler, Murray, Joe Burrow,

190
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 2: Dek Prescott. See this is where that you get into

191
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,839
Speaker 2: a conundrum here. M hm, do you get this? Do

192
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,079
Speaker 2: you get your second running back? Do you go get

193
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 2: your flex? There's another a third wide receiver, which which

194
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 2: is nice.

195
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 3: Which is definitely nice.

196
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 2: Do you go quarterback?

197
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 3: I mean Sartin Pickens every week the flex? Pretty nice,

198
00:08:58,720 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 3: pretty nice.

199
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 2: We're just having him as a backup plan. If one

200
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 2: of the other guys gets hurt, I could throw somebody

201
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 2: else into the flex.

202
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know that I'll be a team

203
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 3: that drafts quarterback particularly high. But Kyler and Richardson are

204
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 3: two of my absolute favorites. Yeah, still there.

205
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just feeling right now.

206
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 3: Who is the best back option? Because that's gonna drive.

207
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 2: Quick rmondre Stevenson, Aaron Jones, David Montgomery, DeAndre Swift. Then

208
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 2: you got Najie Harris.

209
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 3: Will make it. But yeah, you RB two is not

210
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 3: gonna be great. You know, we knew that.

211
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take Kyler Murray here.

212
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 3: Okay, I think he's my number three quarterback.

213
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 2: I think he's prime for a big year.

214
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,719
Speaker 3: I do too because unlike Richardson, I.

215
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 2: Mean I trust him throwing the ball.

216
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 3: He's gonna throw for a lot of yards. Yeah, and

217
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 3: he's gonna run and he throws a really good deep ball.

218
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 3: He's a good receivers. Michael Wilson's good. Grch is good,

219
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 3: you know, like, and I think they're gonna be losing

220
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 3: all the time. Their defense is so bad.

221
00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 2: Running back, I'm looking at David Montgomery, DeAndre Swift, Gavonte Williams,

222
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 2: Nausea Harris, Zamir White, Raheem Mostert, Tony.

223
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 3: I'm really torn between nause versus Javonte. I haven't watched

224
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 3: a ton of Denver preseason, but all reports are he's

225
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 3: looking like the fresher back and I just know that

226
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 3: backfield catches a ton of passes.

227
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 2: I'm feeling like a wide receiver here though, because this

228
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 2: still there. No, he's gone T Higgins, Terry, Terry McLaurin,

229
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 2: Christian Kirk, tank Get Dell, Chris Godwin, Deontay Johnson, Jayden Reed,

230
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 2: Jackson Smith, and Jigba. I don't want to be short

231
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 2: at wide receiver.

232
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 3: No, Higgins and Dell are intriguing to me. Kirk solid

233
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 3: mclaurin's only game in town though. Yeah, yeah, I kind

234
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 3: of like Kirk there. You do like him a little

235
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 3: more than I do. He'd probably my second or third choice, though. Yeah.

236
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 2: I just think he's the number one guy on that team.

237
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 2: I understand he's a little nicked up right now. I

238
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 2: didn't even know that, but I just think he's gonna

239
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 2: get more targets than the other guys on a consistent basis.

240
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 3: Mclaurin's the only one that would probably beat him on that.

241
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 2: But I trust more.

242
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 3: So.

243
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna take Christian Kurtzer six round pick, but

244
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 2: starter for you. Yeah, so I still have I still

245
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 2: need a running back. Looking at the un one so far, Yeah,

246
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,199
Speaker 2: every other position is full. Yeah, Deontay Johnson, Jackson Smith

247
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 2: and Jig but DeAndre Hopkins, Roma Dounzie.

248
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 3: I'd have a hard time going with the fourth receiver already.

249
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 2: Looking at the running backs, Nausea Harris, Samir White, Raheem Moster,

250
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 2: Tony Pollard, Brian Robinson, Jaylen Warren, Devin Singletary, Ty J.

251
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 3: Spears, Nause's my clear choice. He stands out there. What

252
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 3: if Warren's their next round? Would you take him both? Yes?

253
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 3: I think I would too. Yeah, so I kind of

254
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,319
Speaker 3: hope though I'd like keep my fingers crossed.

255
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be probably fine actually.

256
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 3: Because they're both startable.

257
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 2: He just went right, all right, Now, my starting lineup

258
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 2: is filled. Yeah, we're in the round eight.

259
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 3: This is when I like to accumulate backs, but they

260
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 3: have to be the right guy.

261
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't just take so the top guy available

262
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 2: is Brian Robinson.

263
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, that doesn' pretty much for me.

264
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 2: Awful offensive, Devin Singletary yuck. Yeah, Austin Ekeler, Yeah, he

265
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 2: doesn't bother me as much. He could end up being

266
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 2: a number two receiver.

267
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 3: I also think he's one of the best goal line

268
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 3: runners that we remember. Everyone assumes Robinson's the bigger pounder

269
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 3: and Eckler's only the receiver, although Jadon Daniels could take

270
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 3: some of those two. But and I don't think their

271
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 3: offensive particularly good. But Eckler wouldn't hurt you there.

272
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 2: No. Uh, you also have Chase Brown and Zach Loss available.

273
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 3: I'm leaning more towards Brown just from reading reports. But

274
00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 3: that's intriguing too.

275
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Gus Edwards, Air, Jerome Ford is there, Zach Charboney.

276
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:09,599
Speaker 3: It's probably too early, but I think Rico Dowdle's the

277
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 3: number one running back in Dallas.

278
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 2: I don't know that he is now that they I

279
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 2: don't know. I think he is.

280
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 3: I did a couple of podcasts today talking about it

281
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 3: like he looks the best, he's the freshest, but I

282
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 3: bet Zeke takes the goal line carries. And they just signed.

283
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 2: Alvin Cook as well, like they're looking for something there.

284
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 3: There's a lot of talk like Clely Herbert could end

285
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 3: up there. I just mean today they think he's their

286
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 3: best back.

287
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 2: I don't love any of those options though, right now

288
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 2: in round eight, So I'm gonna take a look at

289
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 2: the receivers. Hopkins, A Dounezier, EXAF, You're Worthy, Courtland, Sutton,

290
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 2: Lad McConkie, Marquise Brown, Courtland Sutton's Denver's number one, and

291
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 2: they don't have anybody else.

292
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 3: And there's been really bad reports on Mims and Franklin.

293
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 3: Those guys have been really down the list, and Nix

294
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 3: is efficient.

295
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 2: I would think, yeah, to me, it's either Worthy or Sutton.

296
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,839
Speaker 3: I didn't mind any of the top four you mentioned. Yeah,

297
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 3: who if a Doomsday was one?

298
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 2: NEUW.

299
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 3: Hopkins is still a good football player. Yeah, you know,

300
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,439
Speaker 3: I'd never have drafted him yet, but he's still a

301
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 3: good player. I'm gonna take Sutton there, okay, just because

302
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 3: get traded at the deadline too, just.

303
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 2: Because he's in number one. I'll take a number one

304
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 2: receiver this late in the draft.

305
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, as your fourth receiver. I would think you're leaning

306
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 3: running back here.

307
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 2: Pretty solid out received. I don't need to go anything

308
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 2: else there.

309
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 3: You're a running back injury away from trouble.

310
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 2: But yeah, you know running back is Devin Singletary, Austin

311
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 2: Ekeler's Room, Ford, Gus Edwards.

312
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 3: Jerom Ford's a starter. You're not going to start him

313
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 3: in week one.

314
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 2: Cuba Hubbard, Rico Daltel, like Quorum.

315
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 3: I look at Ford and Cuba as like the same guy,

316
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 3: Like you got him for a month or so as

317
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 3: the number one, but you wouldn't start him either anyway

318
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 3: in week one.

319
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 2: It's round nine. But Singletary, I'm gonna take Devin Singletary.

320
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think he's good and mental care. He's

321
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 3: gonna get this guy. He's a clear round nine. That's

322
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 3: kind of my Dowdell conversation. Yeah, I think those guys

323
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 3: and sa Mere White are all the same. Has less

324
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 3: to fight with Dell probably. Yeah, he's a good receiver too.

325
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 2: Yeah. All right, back up here in round ten, Charbonne Daldell.

326
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 3: How do you end up with Walker?

327
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 2: I did not know. Okay, Okay, McLachlin, Antonio Gibson, ty

328
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 2: Chandler's available.

329
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 3: That Chandler's intrigued. You know, Aaron Jones isn't gonna be

330
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 3: a full time guy. JK.

331
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 2: Dobbins is available? Is that worth a The only thing

332
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 2: is they kept five backs?

333
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 3: Did they really?

334
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 2: Yeah?

335
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 3: I guess that's not to sue surprising, but I think

336
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 3: I'd roll the dice on Dobbins either that.

337
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 2: To me, it's either him or ty Chandler.

338
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 3: See, what's weird about this stage of the draft is

339
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 3: Dobbin's Cuba Ford. You know they're gonna be playing week one,

340
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 3: but you don't know how much longer they're gonna last. Yeah,

341
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 3: and if you're not gonna start them the first two weeks,

342
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 3: I'd almost roll the dice on like Blake Krum or

343
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 3: Lloyd or somebody like that, somebody that you can Jonathan

344
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 3: Brooks feeling like these guys that you know you don't

345
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 3: need for a while, but maybe real happy come November

346
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 3: that that's on your roster? All right? Are you taking

347
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 3: them back? No matter what? Probably McLaughlin's he's gonna catch balls,

348
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 3: he's gonna catch passes.

349
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 2: And the fact that they got p Ryan.

350
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 3: Ryan was appealing. I definitely bumped them up like five

351
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 3: spots when that came.

352
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna take him.

353
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 3: I don't blame him.

354
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, what if Williams Javonte Williams is no right right,

355
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 2: no sure thing?

356
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 3: Man?

357
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 2: How about that ty Chandler made it here, It's worth double.

358
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take him, take him too.

359
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, now I think he plays. He might be a

360
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:06,400
Speaker 3: flex in Week one.

361
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, now I feel a little bit better about my

362
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 2: running back round as a whole. I got guys who

363
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 2: if something happens, at least I'm not gonna get.

364
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 3: Them, right.

365
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

366
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 3: Uh.

367
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 2: Just take a look here at wide receivers again, Josh Downs,

368
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 2: Adam Field, and Dontavian Wicks, Gabe Davis, DeMar of some interest.

369
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 2: But that's Donnie Mitchell, Michael Wilson.

370
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 3: Good ones. Yeah. Yeah, he might not draft another.

371
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 2: Receiver, daviorget I'd like to have one more.

372
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 3: I don't blame you, but sometimes I get real aggressive

373
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 3: in these situations and end up drafting like seven or

374
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 3: eight running backs.

375
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 2: Take a look at my backup quarterbacks. A receiver I'd

376
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:51,879
Speaker 2: never want to start Caleb Williams to Attago Vila, Trevor Lawrence, Steart, Goff.

377
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:59,439
Speaker 3: Laurence my favorite. But they're all strong backups. Yeah, backup

378
00:17:59,440 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 3: tight end.

379
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take two of here.

380
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 3: Okay.

381
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 2: The week that I need him might be a week

382
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 2: that he throws five touchdown passes.

383
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he's gonna do that two or three times

384
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:08,239
Speaker 3: this year.

385
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. Okay, So we're set there. We're in the round thirteen,

386
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 2: fifteen round draft, Yeah, sixteen. Actually running backs available, Khalil Herbert,

387
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 2: Rashawn Johnson, Bucky Irving, Braylan Allen. These are some of

388
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 2: these young guys.

389
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 3: That Bucky Irving could challenge for starter snaps.

390
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 2: Tank Bigsby, Rodrick Estime.

391
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 3: He's three now, but at least it's kind of clear.

392
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 2: Justice Hill.

393
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 3: I never even consider him, but you should.

394
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: I got Derrick Henry and he's a two, and he's

395
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 2: a two.

396
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Mitchell's not in the mix at all. I

397
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 3: assume he would be the clear every down guy. Henry

398
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 3: went down Jordan Mason Kenneth Game one. That Mason's intriguing

399
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 3: to me because he is now clearly the two. Yeah,

400
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 3: and one of the best offenses in the league.

401
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:04,920
Speaker 2: There's another running back here, I'm looking for though, to

402
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 2: see if he's still available that I might want to

403
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 2: take a shot on here, and looks like he might

404
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 2: be gone. Oh well, Tank Bigby is there. It's not bad,

405
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 2: not a bad one. Kamani Vidal. I think he's the

406
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 2: three though, Tyrone, Tracy I have single heads.

407
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 3: Not bad. I could definitely see a scenario where they

408
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:28,959
Speaker 3: turned to him.

409
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't love that group though. No, let somebody

410
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 2: else make some of the decisions.

411
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,400
Speaker 3: Other receivers jumped out a yeah.

412
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 2: I'm looking here. I don't love that either. This draft

413
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 2: is not.

414
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 3: Working out well for them. It's a thirteenth round.

415
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:47,400
Speaker 2: It is. There's usually some guys here that I take

416
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 2: in these spots.

417
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, me too. Usually the end of the draft, there's

418
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 3: more guys that I want than spots I have.

419
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 2: I don't take a look at a tight end position. TJ. Hawkinson,

420
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 2: Cole Comet, Luke Musgrave, Tyler Unklan.

421
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,679
Speaker 3: I'd probably go without unless there's more Hawk news that

422
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 3: he's just gonna clog your roster for six weeks.

423
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 2: That's exactly what's gonna happen there. Yeah, Hunter, Henry Kate Aughton.

424
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 3: My Man John new There.

425
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 2: You know what I'm gonna do here. I'm taking Taysom

426
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 2: Hill as my backup tight end.

427
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, I don't have him much different than

428
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:26,120
Speaker 3: like Friar Mooth.

429
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 2: No, he's gone.

430
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 3: I mean I think Friar moos like my twelve and Hills.

431
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 2: Like he might have a bigger role this year.

432
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 3: He's been He's had more rushes, I mean just preseason usage.

433
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 3: He's done more things. Yeah, I am the problem with

434
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 3: that fourteenth round. He's gonna have a couple of awful games.

435
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's all right, that's fine. I'm taking the Steelers defense.

436
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 2: They were number one on the board there, sure, why not.

437
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 2: Now I'm gonna take my kicker here in the fifteenth round. Well,

438
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 2: Harrison Butker, welcome to the clock.

439
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 3: There you go, one more spot and I'll.

440
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 2: Get my last spot here. I can just take best

441
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 2: player available, Rodrick Estime, Justice Hill still there, Jordan Mason there,

442
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 2: Kenneth Gamewell, Clyde Everards Alaire, Jamal Williams.

443
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 3: I'd gladly take Mason with a late, late pick, but

444
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 3: he'll makes sense for you too.

445
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 2: Trey sermonpop so A. J. P. Ryan is there?

446
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 3: Who's he played for? Now?

447
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 2: He just signed with Kansas City.

448
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 3: Oh did it is that today? Yes, he might be

449
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 3: the clear too there they've been really searching.

450
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, he might be the third down back too.

451
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 3: He can protect. Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna take him. Yeah, yeah, Okay,

452
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 3: that's a great landing spot for him obviously.

453
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt out. The fantasy pros did not like

454
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 2: that one. I got a seventy out of one hundred

455
00:21:53,320 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 2: on that draft. Not good grades overall. Kyler Murray the quarterback,

456
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 2: Derrick Henry and Nauj Harris the running backs. A mon

457
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 2: ros Saint Brown and Malik Neighbors at wide receiver, Dalton

458
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 2: Concate at tight end, Christian Kirk and the flex Steelers

459
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 2: defense Harrison Butker, Courtland Sutton, Devin Singletary, Julia McLaughlan, Ty

460
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,920
Speaker 2: Chandler two Attagovloa, Taysom Hill, and sam A JP Ryan

461
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 2: on the bench.

462
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 3: I like to start better than the end. Yeah, Yeah,

463
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,959
Speaker 3: I didn't fizzled out a little bit. Yeah, and love

464
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 3: how some of the picks went there. Usually we get like,

465
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 3: oh he's there. Yeah, we didn't do much of that

466
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 3: this one.

467
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 2: No, it didn't happen, but oh well that's why you

468
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:33,959
Speaker 2: practice here.

469
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. I don't know what I've done differently. It

470
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 3: just didn't land right for you all that much. Yeah,

471
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,120
Speaker 3: it wasn't like you took a crazy strategy. It didn't work.

472
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe i'd have taken the quarterback earlier.

473
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 3: I don't know, first couple picks I wouldn't true.

474
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 2: But maybe instead of taking a quarterback where I took him,

475
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 2: i'd done something else.

476
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 3: Yeah. Maybe that's maybe a punt on quarterback, grab a

477
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 3: running back there or something.

478
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 2: Absolutely, let's get to another break. Hey, yes, the Matt

486
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 2: Matt Williamson and Matt. NFL dot Com has their predictions

487
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 2: for the Season Long Awards. Oh they do about today.

488
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 3: Okay, they pulled.

489
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 2: Fifty of their employees and it's fifty whatever. However, many

490
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 2: bunches a bunch of their employees and they had them

491
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 2: vote on who's going to win these particular awards. Fifty

492
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,360
Speaker 2: it's twenty twenty four to twenty six, twenty like thirty guys,

493
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 2: thirty people. Okay, guys, fair enough, there's some ladies in

494
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 2: here as well. Most valuable player.

495
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 3: To me, Mahomes is so boring, shocky, chocky shockey, so chocky,

496
00:23:58,119 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 3: Like I don't know if the Vegas odds and even

497
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 3: have it if he's number one, I assume he is.

498
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 3: He should be by a mile.

499
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, plus four seventy five.

500
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 3: Okay, so they have the odds in there. Yeah, Like

501
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 3: I keep moving him up the quarterback board on my

502
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 3: fantasy list. I think their offense is going to go

503
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 3: crazy this year. But for the buck, I'm putting a

504
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 3: dollar on Joe Burrow.

505
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 2: Plus four seventy five is not a bad return though

506
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 2: for the.

507
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,120
Speaker 3: Government's right, Yeah, I mean, but he's definitely the favorite, right, Yeah,

508
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 3: my long SHOT's the wrong word, but my more value

509
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 3: I would say.

510
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 2: Burrow Tied for second are Josh Allen and CJ. Strout

511
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 2: plus nine hundred and plus eight fifty. They both got

512
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 2: four votes.

513
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 3: Okay, it's interesting. We had Aaron Shots on our podcast

514
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:39,919
Speaker 3: today and one of the first things I asked him

515
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 3: was about the Texans. I was like, Aaron, you taught

516
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 3: me about this plexigas last principle twenty years ago that

517
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 3: when teams take a huge step forward, they usually take

518
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,159
Speaker 3: a step back. And he said, we didn't do that

519
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 3: with the Texans because they were one of the most

520
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 3: injured teams in the league last year. Like, oh, that

521
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 3: makes some sense, but still it's gonna be hard to

522
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 3: kiss stay at the level they're expected. The play at.

523
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 2: Third is Jalen Hurts plus fourteen hundred. He got two votes,

524
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,640
Speaker 2: and then one vote each for two other players, Rock

525
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,479
Speaker 2: Purdy and Trevor Lawrence.

526
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 3: Okay, Burrow didn't get any none. Wow, interesting, Lamar didn't

527
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 3: get any none. Oh, I don't know if I can

528
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 3: buy that. He's won two of them already.

529
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 2: Offensive Player of the Year, who's your pick, Tyreek, He's

530
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 2: the winner here?

531
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 3: I fear to be Lamb.

532
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 2: He's plus seven hundred.

533
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 3: Is that the best odds? Well, that's a weird one

534
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 3: because quarterbacks sometimes get it sometimes they don't, not.

535
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 2: So much as anymore usually, I think the voterbackers, like

536
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 2: the MVP is like the quarterback vote, and then Offensive

537
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 2: Player of the year is the best non quarterback.

538
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 3: It seems to be trending that way. But sometimes there's

539
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 3: like two quarterbacks that are neck and neck for MVP.

540
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 3: They we'll give you the other one, you know.

541
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 2: So Tyreek got eleven votes, b Jeon Robinson at plus

542
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,120
Speaker 2: eighteen hundred got five.

543
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 3: I'm a problem with that.

544
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 2: Then you had two guys typer third, Jamar Chase at

545
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 2: plus twelve hundred Christian McCaffrey at plus eight hundred.

546
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 3: I saw some of my phone like two minutes ago

547
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 3: that coach Taylor with the Bengals was noncommittal about Taylor

548
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 3: Toda being there for Week one.

549
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 2: He didn't practice today.

550
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 3: That could get so ugly considering that organization. Yeah, which

551
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 3: would be bad for my Burrow.

552
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,400
Speaker 2: Salaries a million dollars this year.

553
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they have him under control for this year

554
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 3: next year in the folly one if they want. I

555
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,959
Speaker 3: can see the Brown family being like, we'll play hardball.

556
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 3: I mean, how far did Higgins get with him fighting

557
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:41,679
Speaker 3: with him?

558
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 2: How happy is that gonna make Burrow? Though that's his buddy,

559
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 2: I get it.

560
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 3: I mean I just think the whole thing could get worse. Yeah,

561
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 3: you know, like I'm sure I could get figured out.

562
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 3: Lamb just got figured out. Frank Williams.

563
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 2: I don't know though, that's a weird one. Trant Williams

564
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 2: could sit and sit and sit.

565
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 3: Yeah. Again, we had shots on today and we asked

566
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 3: them about the Niners. We said, what if I youke

567
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,719
Speaker 3: in Williams miss time? He dropped their win total by

568
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 3: like one and a half, which is a lot. Yeah,

569
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,440
Speaker 3: and it was like wow, and their chance of the

570
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:12,640
Speaker 3: Super Bowl went down by like ten percent. Yeah, where

571
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 3: are we at here?

572
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 2: Tyreek was one b Jon Robinson too, Jamar Chase, Christian

573
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 2: McCaffrey at plus eight hundred. Their typer Chase was plus

574
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 2: twelve hundre McCaffrey plus eight hundred. They got three votes.

575
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,879
Speaker 3: McCaffrey's the first pick in fantasy. But every running back

576
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 3: in that class has really started to hit a wall,

577
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 3: like I'd be a little nervous picking in. I mean

578
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 3: till do it.

579
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 2: But a bunch of players type with one vote each,

580
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 2: A J. Brown, Derrick, Henry Jalen Hurts. The only quarter on.

581
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 2: There's two quarterbacks in there, Ceedee Lamb, Kyler Murray Garrett Wilson.

582
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 3: Okay, I say Lamb all right? Jefferson seems like a

583
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 3: long shot.

584
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just don't think they're going to be very

585
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 2: long shot.

586
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:58,959
Speaker 3: Breese halting game votes No, Bijon did Okay, I mean

587
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 3: I think there's more Jet Well, I don't know about.

588
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 2: That defensive Player of the Year. Okay, this one's the

589
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,920
Speaker 2: most spread out. Three guys got at least seven votes.

590
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 2: So if you don't get them right, if you guess

591
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 2: who they are, if.

592
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 3: I'm putting my hard earned money down, I think recent

593
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 3: history shows that they want to spread this around a

594
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,239
Speaker 3: little bit. And Bosa, Garrett and Watt already have one.

595
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,880
Speaker 3: So I'm thinking it's like Parsons turns before we even

596
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 3: play a snap or Max. Those are two of the three.

597
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 3: There are two of the three Parsons.

598
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 2: Parsons is number one at plus five fifty. Okay, what

599
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 2: and Crosby both got seven votes each. Watt at plus

600
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 2: five seventy five, Crosby at plus seven hundred.

601
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 3: Chris Jones No, not nice.

602
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 2: Here's the thing with Chris Jones. When you dig into

603
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 2: Chris Jones numbers, Yeah, he had thirty tackles last year.

604
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 2: Them you can't be I don't care if you have

605
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 2: twenty five sacks, you can't have thirty tackles and be

606
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 2: defensive Player of the Year because you're not playing on

607
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 2: the early downs.

608
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 3: Oh no, you're right disruptive and he plays on the

609
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 3: right team.

610
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 2: Just can't put him out there on third downs and say,

611
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,479
Speaker 2: oh he's the he's the defensive player of the year.

612
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 3: Warner fourth is U.

613
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 2: Two guys tip for fourth, Miles Garrett, Aiden Hutchinson.

614
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 3: I can see Lions being hot votes right now.

615
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 2: Two guys type with one vote each. Sauce Gardner, Rashawn Gary.

616
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 2: Somebody voted for Rashawn Gary for Defensive Player of the Year.

617
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 2: Are you out of your mind?

618
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, he could have a really nice year and

619
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 3: get the thirteen sacks and he's a good player and

620
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 3: their defense be better. But he can't beat out Bosa

621
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 3: Parsons one.

622
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 2: It's like voting for the Space Invaders candidate in a

623
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 2: presidential election. You're just throwing your vote away.

624
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, they'd have to go insane, and corners almost

625
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 3: never get it either.

626
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 2: It's really difficult.

627
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 3: You better have numbers.

628
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 2: You gotta have like ten interceptions. If Sauce Gardener's not

629
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 2: gonn get them right, nobody's gonna throw out.

630
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 3: It, right. That's it's the catch twenty two. I don't

631
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 3: know if a safety could win it, you'd have to

632
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 3: Hamilton Macca.

633
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and interceptions two years ago have to make the case.

634
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 3: For Yeah, it's almost always be an edge guy, I think.

635
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. So really, what they're looking at here is Parsons, Watt, Crosby.

636
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 3: All they're the top three.

637
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 2: Parsons got eight votes, Watt and Crosby got seven each.

638
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 2: And the thing with Crosby, hey, are they gonna be

639
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:31,479
Speaker 2: good enough for him to being considered.

640
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 3: That's gonna hurt them bad. And you know they're never

641
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 3: gonna play the lead. Yeah, Wilkins next to him helps,

642
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 3: He'll get less attention, but I mean he's made a

643
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 3: case before. I'm sure he's gotten votes.

644
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 2: And you can double two guys on the line.

645
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 3: Not great. Yeah, yeah, I mean I think there's a

646
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 3: chance they picked really early in the draft.

647
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 2: Offensive Rookie of the Year Kayler Williams is gonna get

648
00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 2: all the votes he got seventeen. He didn't get all

649
00:30:59,640 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 2: of them.

650
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 3: I would put money on neighbors for what he payoff

651
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 3: would be.

652
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams is plus one forty. Not much of a payoff,

653
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 2: definitely not putting a dollar on that. Second was Marvin

654
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 2: pay Anything Marvin Harrison Junior second at plus seven hundred. Okay,

655
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels got two votes, finished third at plus five hundred.

656
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 3: I don't love his chance of making it in seventeen games.

657
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 2: But if he runs for like eight or nine hundred

658
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 2: yards and oh he'll do that stiff.

659
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

660
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 2: And then three guys tied for Forest brock Bauers plus

661
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 2: five thousand off a tight ends ever won it Molik

662
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 2: Neighbors plus fifteen hundred. Bow Knicks at plus nine to fifty.

663
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 2: Who vote, Steve Mariucci vote for bow Knicks's offensive Rookie

664
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 2: of the year.

665
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 3: He's probably gonna play seventeen games. Maybe I would definitely

666
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 3: put on Neighbors for what the payoff is. Yeah, defensive

667
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 3: Rookie of the year. This is a little spread out,

668
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 3: I bet because it's a really bad defensive draft. I mean,

669
00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 3: the first half of the round one was none.

670
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 2: The leader got twelve votes. Who do you think that is?

671
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 3: Well, the day after the draft, I put a buck

672
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 3: on Latu with the Colts and he was not the

673
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 3: best odds. He was like fourth, But I think he

674
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 3: would even if he was the best odds. That's who

675
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 3: I would bet on.

676
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 2: He gets a twelve votes. Yeah, plays in the dome

677
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 2: plus four hundred.

678
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 3: He's not a project at all. He's a NFL ready guy.

679
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 3: He stood out to me again the day after the draft.

680
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 2: Number two. There's two guys tied Dallas.

681
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 3: Turns, Turners probably one Jared Verse. I don't know how

682
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 3: well versus game is going to translate. I mean, he's

683
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 3: a real power player and you have to have that,

684
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 3: but I don't know if he's a change.

685
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 1: Up for a curve ball.

686
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, Turners plus four fifty versus plus nine to fifty.

687
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 3: It's what's late. What does lay two payoff at four hundred?

688
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 3: I got it like seven or eight hundred. Good for you, right? Uh.

689
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 2: Fourth is Byron Murphy with three votes. That's a good

690
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 2: one plus eleven hundred.

691
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 3: It's tough on a d tackle, but yeah, he's gonna

692
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 3: be the Mattabouquet and that in that defense, and he's

693
00:32:58,800 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 3: really talented.

694
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 2: Promising a plus sixteen hundred.

695
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 3: I guess Chubbs on the boats. Yeah, but when he

696
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 3: comes back, he's gonna be a rotation guy with Phillips.

697
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 2: This isn't a bad one at plus sixty six hundred

698
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 2: Kamari Lassiter. He's only got a bad one.

699
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 3: Starter on a good team, high profile team. I mean

700
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 3: it's a long shot.

701
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 2: Singly, he's on the other side, he's probably gonna get

702
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 2: thrown out a lot, so he.

703
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 3: Might get he's gonna get the targets, four or five interceptions.

704
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 3: That is worth it for the buck. Yeah, how about

705
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 3: a linebacker. Yeah, if I do Peyton Wilson's playing every

706
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 3: snap and they're gonna give me ten grand for a dollar,

707
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 3: then you know I'd be interested.

708
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 2: But he could still be in the mix.

709
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 3: I know. I don't think it's the craziest thing in the.

710
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 2: He has fifty tackles and two sacks and three interceptions.

711
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 3: He could have production. Yeah yeah, and he might be

712
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 3: an every down player by week ten. Yeah, you know

713
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 3: who knows. Yeah, so it's possibility.

714
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 2: The one I hate Comeback Player of the Year.

715
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a dumb award.

716
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 2: They changed the rules on the voting this year.

717
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 3: Though, because of the whole Hamlin situation.

718
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 2: Or I think, yeah, and some of the stuff that's

719
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 2: happened in the past. So I think you had to

720
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 2: have missed games.

721
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 3: You couldn't just be bad. Yeah, basically used to be

722
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 3: could be bad and then be okay and then you

723
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 3: can win it. Come back just kind of you came

724
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 3: back or you were never really good, which really isn't

725
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 3: an award, kind of a backhanded complement.

726
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, so bad, but now you're good.

727
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 3: Now your average.

728
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow gets eleven votes.

729
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 3: I mean he didn't have a great year. He missed time,

730
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 3: missed a lot of time, like half a season. I

731
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 3: guess that seems like a layup to me.

732
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 2: Then he's he's plus two seventy five. Not the best

733
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 2: odds really. Aaron Rodgers at plus one thirty guys, Yeah, I.

734
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 3: Guess that makes sense too. I guess he came back

735
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 3: from more. Yeah, I mean that's part of it too,

736
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 3: Like what all did you come back from?

737
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins at plus five twenty five got three votes.

738
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 3: Played a good part of the year, though, I gets

739
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 3: Burrow did too.

740
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson at plus six seventy five got two votes.

741
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 2: He shouldn't even be in consideration here because you're coming.

742
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 2: You got to arrive first.

743
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 3: You got to arrive. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Like he didn't

744
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:14,439
Speaker 3: even like get out of the starting block.

745
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 2: He ran He ran a tenth of the race.

746
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 3: Could JJ McCarthy win it a year from now? That's

747
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 3: what basically right, I mean at least Richardson saw the field,

748
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 3: But is he eligible? Like they just knew away with

749
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 3: that one. Nick Chubb got Baco didn't win it.

750
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,239
Speaker 2: Here's a weird win. No he did, or no he did.

751
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 2: Flacco did win.

752
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 3: It wasn't him when it was Flackla. Okay, that's why

753
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 3: I wasn't sure.

754
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, which is I think why they can't change the

755
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,919
Speaker 2: rules because what was he coming back from being benched? Yeah?

756
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 2: I think he was retired actually yeah, okay, Uh, Kyler

757
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,920
Speaker 2: Murray got a vote. He came back at the end

758
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 2: of last year.

759
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, I mean his comeback was last year. Yeah,

760
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 3: he's already back, right, and then Nick Chubb got a vote.

761
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,839
Speaker 3: That could happen if he finishes. He's strong. Yeah.

762
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:08,399
Speaker 2: Coach of the year before they play a game. Yeah.

763
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,839
Speaker 2: A lot of guys mentioned here, none of which are

764
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin.

765
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 3: If he gets some of the playoffs in this division

766
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 3: with that schedule, he should be in the mix.

767
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 2: He should be in the mix. He should be Yeah.

768
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 3: I always looked at a team though this He.

769
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,319
Speaker 2: Should have been in the mix last year. Yeah, they

770
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 2: won ten games, they played three different quarterbacks.

771
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 3: Who's a team that Vegas win totals like it's six now,

772
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 3: that could get in the playoffs.

773
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 2: That's not the favorite here.

774
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 3: That's usually the teams will win it though. Who is

775
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 3: the favorite?

776
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 2: The favorite is the guy who should have won it

777
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 2: last year, Jamake o'ryans.

778
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,439
Speaker 3: Okay, but expectations are high.

779
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 2: I mean, that's what I'm saying, Like now, the expectation

780
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 2: is there for them to win. He's not gonna win

781
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 2: it this year.

782
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 3: He's not gonna win this year. That's not how the

783
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:54,279
Speaker 3: award works.

784
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 2: He's plus fourteen hundred, tied for second. Two guys Jim

785
00:36:58,760 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 2: harbar Raheem Morris.

786
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 3: Okay, if they win the South, I could see Morris winning.

787
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 2: Plus fifteen hundred. It's nice, nice odds, Like I don't.

788
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 3: Think these this team's prettically good, but like if the

789
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 3: Titans win eight or nine games, rookie coach, no expectations.

790
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 3: Those are the kind of that's the usually Wendsy ward,

791
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:18,360
Speaker 3: those type of profiles.

792
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,279
Speaker 2: Three guys tied for the next spot with three votes each,

793
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:25,000
Speaker 2: Matt Eberfluss, Matt Lafleura, Shane Steiken.

794
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 3: Okay, I mean stike In and Eberflus. I understand more like,

795
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 3: it's not gonna go to McVeigh. It's not gonna go

796
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:36,279
Speaker 3: to Shanahan. He's not gonna win it because the expectations,

797
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 3: expectations are high, and he's he probably want to want

798
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,839
Speaker 3: to the year after Rogers was gone. Yeah, something, you know, Uh,

799
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 3: I don't know good candidates for that one.

800
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 2: Two votes for that one, Mike, are for Mike McDonald

801
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:55,800
Speaker 2: in Seattle, and then one vote each. Yeah, Mike McDonald's

802
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 2: one vote each for Dan Campbell, Mike McDaniel, and Sean McVay.

803
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 2: They're not gonna win it.

804
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 3: They're not gonna win it. Another too high profile, too

805
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 3: high expectations like Andy Reid's on that list. No, Yeah,

806
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,359
Speaker 3: I don't have a great candidate for that one.

807
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 2: It could be could be Tom One's year.

808
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,840
Speaker 3: Maybe it could be again who's the bad team that

809
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,359
Speaker 3: we don't see coming, like the Texans from a year ago. Yeah,

810
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:23,320
Speaker 3: that's usually who wins it. I don't know. That's another

811
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 3: hard one.

812
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:25,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, So that's the voting.

813
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 3: So much circumstance evolved. That doesn't mean who's the best too.

814
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 3: The Browns went through four quarterbacks, so he won it,

815
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 3: you know, and it really shouldn't have been him. No,

816
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 3: I thought he wouldn't even bet in my top three

817
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 3: or four. No, me, several guys. I thought it was

818
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:40,240
Speaker 3: more deserving.

819
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's the voting as it is on the

820
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:46,320
Speaker 2: NFL dot Com. They're early voting for some of the awards,

821
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 2: well really all the awards. Yeah, the big ones, the

822
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:51,880
Speaker 2: big ones. But we're gonna get to a break. We're

Speaker 2: Matt Williamson and Matt. There's some news and notes from

831
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 2: around the league. Chief signing Dailey's appy.

832
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 3: Interesting the practice squad, but yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a

833
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 3: good spot for him. Yeah.

834
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:38,240
Speaker 2: Mentioned the Dalvin Cook going to the Dallas Cowboys.

835
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 3: Practice squad, But that doesn't mean somebody's practice squad signing,

836
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 3: so they.

837
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 2: Get a million dollars. Yeah, he'll be on the practice squad.

838
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 3: He will be elevated at some point, I would imagine.

839
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:47,879
Speaker 3: I would imagine.

840
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 2: Whenever he's ready, whenever they feel he's ready to come

841
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 2: and contribute.

842
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 3: So the last time he's done much. But yeah. Uh.

843
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,760
Speaker 2: The Cardinals signed Desmond Renner to their practice squad.

844
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 3: Oh they did. Yeah, a little shocked he got cut.

845
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 2: But wow, the Ravens are They have Lawrence guy coming

846
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,360
Speaker 2: in for a free agent workout today.

847
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 3: They always have that big run, huge, slow stumpy got yeah, right,

848
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 3: and those guys play forever. Yeah, I mean they're just

849
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 3: man strong. Yeah, just eat up double teams.

850
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 2: The Carolina Panthers claimed three cornerbacks on waivers. These guys

851
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 2: are going to their regular they're on the team. Yeah,

852
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:40,399
Speaker 2: Shamir Bartholomew, Tarique castro Fields, Keenan Isaac.

853
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 3: Okay, castro Fields had a little buzz around, a little

854
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 3: muchout the other two. Yeah. They also, you're about to

855
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 3: be in that desperate at a position.

856
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 2: They also signed Lonnie Johnson to their practice squad, but

857
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:55,360
Speaker 2: he's expected to be elevated for Week one. Really another cornerback,

858
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 2: so they're gonna have four brand new cornerbacks on their roster.

859
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:04,399
Speaker 3: On the rosters, So start your fantasy receivers Week one

860
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 3: against the Panthers. Maybe, I mean those guys have to play.

861
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, when people look at the Steelers wide receiver situation

862
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 2: and say, well, they shouldn't have traded Deontay Johnson away,

863
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 2: maybe the.

864
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,320
Speaker 3: Panthers are looking having the same conversation.

865
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 2: They signed four cornerbacks who on somebody else's team all summer.

866
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 3: And the motality guy Horn never's on the field. Yeah

867
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 3: the problem. Yeah, Wow, I've never heard of such a thing. Uh.

868
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 2: Cincinnati claimed defensive end kJ Henry from Washington and cut

869
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 2: Traveon Williams, the running back.

870
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,440
Speaker 3: They just bust felt there and end short.

871
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 2: Well, they've had some injuries there.

872
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe they need them now.

873
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 2: That's troublesome for them.

874
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah makes sense. I would think that that's a

875
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:51,479
Speaker 3: short term fix.

876
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 2: The Cowboys also signed defensive end Carl Lawson to their

877
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:58,399
Speaker 2: practice squad. He's still trying to come back.

878
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 3: They might be or Juven's career a little bit.

879
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, they kind of looking for that extra other pass.

880
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 3: Injuries have been a thing.

881
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 2: Tim Patrick signs with the Lions to their Patrick practice squad.

882
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 3: He may play for them that they could use an

883
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 3: outside type guy if he plays.

884
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 2: Period. He hasn't played football in three years. I know

885
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 2: it's really bad. Yeah, and he's now thirty, so I

886
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 2: don't know.

887
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 3: Uh.

888
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:29,280
Speaker 2: The Green Bay Packers claimed kicker Braiden Narvisen and release

889
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 2: Greg Joseph, So it looks like Braden Narvisen is going

890
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 2: to be there is the guy kicker.

891
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 3: So fantasy note, don't take the Packers kicker.

892
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 2: You'd think a good like for a good team. This

893
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,399
Speaker 2: is what you talk about all the time. You don't

894
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 2: want to be in that kicker at that no man's land.

895
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 3: Then there's always like five teams every year that end

896
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,360
Speaker 3: up in kicker no man's land, and it's makes you

897
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:51,400
Speaker 3: not be able to sleep at night.

898
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Greg Joseph's at least kicked in the

899
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:54,399
Speaker 2: league for a long time.

900
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:55,880
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know what the problem is with him,

901
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 3: but maybe he just can't.

902
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 2: He kicked in Minneapolis for a long time, so maybe

903
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 2: that's the problem. Is it?

904
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 3: Maybe them like the outdoors, So yeah, I don't know.

905
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 2: Uh. Let's see here. Samajp run as I mentioned, is

906
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,320
Speaker 2: signed being signed to the active roster for the Kansas

907
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 2: City Chief's no sgnificant.

908
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's bigger than some of these ones we've talked about. Yeah,

909
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:17,880
Speaker 3: I mean he probably will play and get the football

910
00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 3: in Week one.

911
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of surprising. You know, Denver they tried

912
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:23,800
Speaker 2: to trade him, sounded like it they wouldn't have traded

913
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,520
Speaker 2: them to Kansas City. Sure, so Kansas City gets him.

914
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:29,399
Speaker 3: I'm a little shock nobody gave him a seventh round

915
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 3: pick though. Yeah, he's been around the block and he's dependable.

916
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,400
Speaker 3: Did you see the latest one Terrence Marshall, Yeah with

917
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 3: the Niners. Yeah, yeah, that doesn't change much to me. No, no,

918
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 3: it doesn't mean Ayux moving or Marshall should have been

919
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 3: a Steeler.

920
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 2: The Raiders have claimed Jonah defensive tackle Jonah Laylou from

921
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 2: the Colts and defensive back Thomas Harper from the Chargers.

922
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 3: It just tells me their defense isn't very deep.

923
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a trade that just happened, the Chargers

924
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 2: acquiring defensive back Elijah Molden from Tennessee. Okay, he would

925
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 2: have been a guy, would have been interesting.

926
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a tough undersize like them coming out. Yeah, yeah,

927
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 3: feisty interesting.

928
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, he's he's a nickel corner.

929
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 3: I would have been Chargers added him. Yeah, I mean,

930
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 3: just like we said, and Hardball wouldn't add him if

931
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 3: he wasn't a tough guy. Yeah, they gave something up

932
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:28,240
Speaker 3: for him. I don't think we mentioned the Rams Jones

933
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:29,600

985
00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,120
